As the whole-wide-world international version of Newsweek ran the cover of religious persecution in Russia, the American cover was of Bernie Sanders. I mean, Bernie Sanders is so 'been there done that.' This country is insane over politics. I thought I had taken the following out of 'No Fake News but Plenty of Hogwash' when I revised it to remove much of what was political, but instead I recalled that I had merely modified it, liking it for the family reference: "It is steering the supertanker for four-to-eight years through rough seas and around treacherous shoals that will not matter in the long run. It polarized families. I saw it in my own extended fami…

Have you ever wondered what the typical coding whiz makes at Google? What about a rank-and-file chocolatier at a Hershey factory? Or the standard refinery worker at Exxon Mobil? Well wonder no longer, because we've got data. For the first time ever, public companies were required to spill the beans on what they paid their median employee in 2017 (in addition to executive compensation). That's a result of a Dodd-Frank mandate coming into effect. The idea is that more transparency around salaries (especially the pay ratio between the CEO/median worker) might dampen the corporate greed that contributed to the financial crisis. But before you read on, …

F.D.A. Approves First Drug Designed to Prevent Migraines
by Guest Nicole- 2 replies
- 358 views
The first medicine designed to prevent migraines was approved by the Food and Drug Administration on Thursday, ushering in what many experts believe will be a new era in treatment for people who suffer the most severe form of these headaches. The drug, Aimovig, made by Amgen and Novartis, is a monthly injection with a device similar to an insulin pen. The list price will be $6,900 a year, and Amgen said the drug will be available to patients within a week. Aimovig blocks a protein fragment, CGRP, that instigates and perpetuates migraines. Three other companies — Lilly, Teva and Alder — have similar medicines in the final stages of study or awaiting F.D.A. approv…

There’s no such thing as a sunscreen pill, the Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday, telling companies that sell them to stop. These so-called sunscreen-in-a-pill supplements are fakes and people should not fall for the scam, the FDA said. “There’s no pill or capsule that can replace your sunscreen,” FDA commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb said in a statement on Tuesday. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/sunscreen-pills-are-fake-medicine-fda-says-n876626

Dive Brief: Zatec, a brewery in Czechoslovakia, has partnered with a local breast advocacy group called Mamma HELP and advertising agency Y&R Prague to create an alcohol-free beer for chemotherapy patients. According to Adweek, Mamma Beer has extra vitamin B and potassium to help fortify breast cancer patients and a sweeter flavor to counter changes in taste that often result from chemo treatments. Project backers said they asked nine breweries to develop the beer, but only Zatec accepted. The brewery took about six months to create the final product. The limited-edition beer is only available in local pharmacies in the Czech Republic and online through t…

New brain development disorder identified by scientists

Researchers have identified a new inherited neurodevelopmental disease that causes slow growth, seizures and learning difficulties in humans. Writing in the journal eLife, the team reveals that this disease is caused by a recessive mutation in CAMK2A - a gene that is well known for its role in regulating learning and memory in animals. The findings suggest that dysfunctional CAMK2 genes may contribute to other neurological disorders, such as epilepsy and autism, opening up potential new avenues for treating these conditions. "A significant number of children are born with growth delays, neurological defects and intellectual disabilities every year across the wor…

People who are more active when commuting to work by walking or cycling could be cutting their relative risk of developing ischaemic heart disease or stroke by 11% and their relative risk of dying from these diseases by 30%, suggests a study published in the journal Heart. Physical activity, including less vigorous forms such as walking and cycling, reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, but despite this well-known benefit, levels of activity are still low in many countries. There are concerns that many peoples' lives involve increasingly sedentary occupations and little opportunity for leisure time physical activity. Thus, activity as part of a journe…

Having A Weekend Lie-In Could Save Your Life

Everyone likes a cheeky lie-in now and again on a weekend, but it comes with the annoying side-effect of guilt. Shouldn’t you be out doing more with your weekend? Well, we’ve got good news. In a study published in the Journal of Sleep Research, Swedish researchers found that having a lie-in could actually lower your mortality rate, if you’d been missing out on sleep during the week. Previous research has found that adults under the age of 65 who sleep less than five hours each night of the week had a higher risk of death. But this study suggested that catching up on sleep over the weekend could alleviate that risk. "The results imply that short (weekday) sl…

Samsung Electronics has lost a long-running patent case, with a jury on Thursday ordering the company to pay Apple $538 million for copying their smartphones, Reuters reports. Apple first filed a patent lawsuit against Samsung in 2011, alleging it had "slavishly" copied Apple products. Specifically, Apple took issue with Samsung copying mobile design features such as rounded corners, the rim of the front face of the iPhone, and the app grid layout of the iOS home screen, reports The Verge. A 2012 trial found Samsung guilty. A lack of agreement over damages had resulted in a retrial, which ended last week, per Reuters.
