Panic disorder is a type of anxiety disorder that is characterized by fear and worry. One of the most salient symptoms is the experience of persistent and often unanticipated panic attacks. Panic attacks are typically experienced through a combination of frightening physical sensations and distressing thoughts and emotions. These attacks bring on severe apprehension and discomfort, despite a lack of actual threat or danger.
Separation anxiety disorder: Separation anxiety is often thought of as something that only children deal with; however, adults can also be diagnosed with separation anxiety disorder. People who have separation anxiety disorder have fears about being parted from people to whom they are attached. They often worry that some sort of harm or something untoward will happen to their attachment figures while they are separated. This fear leads them to avoid being separated from their attachment figures and to avoid being alone. People with separation anxiety may have nightmares about being separated from attachment figures or experience physical symptoms when separation occurs or is anticipated.
All in a moment that may have lasted hours or seconds, everything came to a halt. The word panic doesn’t seem to reach the sensations I felt during those minutes and hours. My body ached, my insides contracted and felt ice cold, my heart hurt more than any pain I’ve felt. What was worse was the paralyzing, gripping fear—sheer and utter incapacitating fear— that I was leaving so many things undone.
To the extent that a person is fearful of social encounters with unfamiliar others, some people may experience anxiety particularly during interactions with outgroup members, or people who share different group memberships (i.e., by race, ethnicity, class, gender, etc.). Depending on the nature of the antecedent relations, cognitions, and situational factors, intergroup contact may be stressful and lead to feelings of anxiety. This apprehension or fear of contact with outgroup members is often called interracial or intergroup anxiety.
A panic attack begins suddenly and unexpectedly and most often peaks within 10 to 20 minutes. At times, the resulting anxiety may last a couple of hours. Panic attacks can occur whether the person is calm or anxious. Recalling a past attack may trigger a new one. The frequency of panic attacks can vary, and for some people the fear of having an additional attack may lead them to avoid situations where escape may be difficult, such as being in a crowd or traveling in a car or bus.
If you're having lots of panic attacks at unpredictable times and there doesn't seem to be a particular trigger or cause, you might be given a diagnosis of panic disorder. It's common to experience panic disorder and agoraphobia (a type of phobia) together. People who experience panic disorder may have some periods with few or no panic attacks, but have lots at other times.
The prognosis for people who suffer a panic attack is overall, good. Some people have a single attack and are never bothered again. Yet, two-thirds of people experiencing a panic attack go on to be diagnosed with panic disorder. Also, half of those who go through a panic attack might develop clinical depression within the following year, if not treated promptly. Occasionally, a person will, after a long evaluation, be diagnosed with a medical condition that causes panic symptoms.
The typical course of panic disorder begins in adolescence and peaks in early to mid-twenties, with symptoms rarely present in children under the age of 14 or in older adults over the age of 64 (Kessler et al., 2012). Caregivers can look for symptoms of panic attacks in adolescents, followed by notable changes in their behavior (e.g., avoiding experiencing strong physical sensations), to help potentially identify the onset of panic disorder. Panic disorder is most likely to develop between the ages of 20-24 years and although females are more likely to have panic disorder, there are no significant sex differences in how the disorder presents (McLean et al., 2011).
I am 23 years old and this all started In 2017. My heart starts racing and I have and I start crying uncontrollably. I found myself getting away from anyone that was around me ( Going in the shower and just crying) my heart would race so fast. This has happened three times in the last two years. I hate the way this makes me feel. Should I b worried? Should I seek for help?
I don’t know if I’m having anxiety attacks but every time I face a minor problem in my life, even if it us really stupid, I feel like I want to cry, to scream, and it’s like something is blocking my throat. I can’t control my anger during those moments, so I usually turn off my phone so I don’t say things I don’t mean to my friends or my family when I’m panicking and overthinking about any minor situation.
Anxiety can be experienced with long, drawn out daily symptoms that reduce quality of life, known as chronic (or generalized) anxiety, or it can be experienced in short spurts with sporadic, stressful panic attacks, known as acute anxiety. Symptoms of anxiety can range in number, intensity, and frequency, depending on the person. While almost everyone has experienced anxiety at some point in their lives, most do not develop long-term problems with anxiety.
Benzodiazepines are sedatives indicated for anxiety, epilepsy, alcohol withdrawal and muscle spasms. Benzodiazepines demonstrate short-term effectiveness in the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder and can help with sleep disturbances. A doctor may prescribe these drugs for a limited period of time to relieve acute symptoms of anxiety. However, long-term use of these medications is discouraged because they have a strong sedative effect and can be habit forming. In addition, taking benzodiazepines while also engaging in psychotherapy such as PE can reduce the effectiveness of the exposuere therapy,. Some well-known brand names are Librium, Xanax, Valium, and Ativan.
Anxiety disorders fall into a set of distinct diagnoses, depending upon the symptoms and severity of the anxiety the person experiences. Anxiety disorders share the anticipation of a future threat, but differ in the types of situations or objects that induce fear or avoidance behavior. Different types of anxiety disorder also have different types of unhealthy thoughts associated with them.
“One day, without any warning or reason, a feeling of terrible anxiety came crashing down on me. I felt like I couldn’t get enough air, no matter how hard I breathed. My heart was pounding out of my chest, and I thought I might die. I was sweating and felt dizzy. I felt like I had no control over these feelings and like I was drowning and couldn’t think straight.
A person with social anxiety disorder has significant anxiety and discomfort about being embarrassed, humiliated, rejected or looked down on in social interactions. People with this disorder will try to avoid the situation or endure it with great anxiety. Common examples are extreme fear of public speaking, meeting new people or eating/drinking in public. The fear or anxiety causes problems with daily functioning and lasts at least six months.
Medications — most often antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs — can also be used to help treat panic disorder. Your doctor may initially prescribe you an anti-anxiety drug, such as Xanax (alprazolam), and then add an antidepressant, such as Effexor XR (venlafaxine). After a month or sooner, your doctor may stop the Xanax and have you remain on the antidepressant.
In deeper level psychoanalytic approaches, in particular object relations theory, panic attacks are frequently associated with splitting (psychology), paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions, and paranoid anxiety. They are often found comorbid with borderline personality disorder and child sexual abuse. Paranoid anxiety may reach the level of a persecutory anxiety state.
i had my first anxiety on 2017 when i was in the last year in my high school and it lasted a year. the first symptoms i had was less sleep and when i sleep then wake up i would feel like i never had a sleep, another symptom was i had a racing heart beat that when i hear my pulse i would ask my self a lot of questions which would make me panic and make my pulse more faster. for that year i had the anxiety, i had reached a very high level in the anxiety like i used to talk to myself and ask what is happening to me, i used to google my symptoms and google would respond like i had a non-functioning glands and felt hopeless and would be like this forever. i used to cry a lot, but i had this part that made me feel better which was PRAYING. i started praying my 5 prayers everyday and reading Quran. After 2days i would sleep better, my pulse went back to normal and the most thing i missed a lot happiness. Afterwards i learnt how to control my anxiety and stress and whenever i feel some pressure i would do a pro-longed sujood and pray. the reason why posted this was i really feel you guys and when i read your posts, i saw myself in 2017 when i was hopeless so i wanted to tell you guys not to worry and you gonna have your life back and will be happy Insha Allah. just be connected to Allah
A panic attack is an abrupt surge of intense fear or discomfort that reaches a peak within minutes, and during which time a variety of psychological and physical symptoms occur. These symptoms include rapid heart rate, sweating, shaking, shortness of breath, hot flashes, and lightheadedness—as well as a sense of impending doom, chills, nausea, abdominal pain, chest pain, headache, and numbness or tingling.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder is one of the most common anxiety disorders and affects approximately 3.1% of the American adult population. With 6.8 million reported cases among American adults aged 18 and older, the average age of onset is 31 years old. While it can occur at any point of life, the most common points of onset occur between childhood and middle age. If you are a woman, you are twice as likely to suffer from Generalized Anxiety Disorder than men.
Psychologically, people who develop panic attacks or another anxiety disorder are more likely to have a history of what is called anxiety sensitivity. Anxiety sensitivity is the tendency for a person to fear that anxiety-related bodily sensations (like brief chest pain or stomach upset) have dire personal consequences (for example, believing that it automatically means their heart will stop or they will throw up, respectively). From a social standpoint, a risk factor for developing panic disorder as an adolescent or adult is a history of being physically or sexually abused as a child. This is even more the case for panic disorder when compared to other anxiety disorders. Often, the first attacks are triggered by physical illnesses, another major life stress, or perhaps medications that increase activity in the part of the brain involved in fear reactions.
The electrocardiograph in a person with panic attacks often shows tachycardia, but does not usually show any of the changes typically seen in people with heart attacks or angina. However, if significant risk factors for cardiovascular disease are present, a noninvasive evaluation to rule out coronary artery disease (CAD) may sometimes be a good idea.
Loved ones, as well as medical personnel, generally attempt to reassure the panic attack sufferer that he or she is not in great danger. However, these efforts at reassurance can sometimes add to the patient's struggles. If the doctors say things like, "it's nothing serious," "it's all in your head," or "nothing to worry about," this may give the false impression that there is no real problem, they should be able to overcome their symptoms without help, and that treatment is not possible or necessary. More accurately, while panic attacks can undoubtedly be serious, they are not organ-threatening. Therefore, for people who might wonder what to do to help the panic sufferer at the time of an anxiety attack, a more effective approach tends to be acknowledge their fear and the intensity of their symptoms while reassuring the person having the panic attack that what is occurring is not life-threatening and can be treated.
There is evidence for panic disorder-like diagnoses across cultures, such as ataque de nervios in Latin American communities. Research has shown that African Americans experience more functional impairment (i.e., impact on one's ability to complete daily activities) than non-Latino white Americans. This is not an exhaustive list of cultural factors related to panic disorder, but it does highlight cultural differences that may affect the presentation of panic disorder as well as individual differences in the interpretation of panic symptoms (Asnaani, Gutner, Hinton, & Hofmann, 2009; Hofmann & Hinton, 2014; Lewis-Fernández, et al., 2010).
When taking medications, it is important for clients to be educated about potential side effects, the rationale for the type of medication prescribed, and other drugs or substances that may counteract or interact with the effects of the medications. Before stopping taking the prescribed drug, or if the medication does not seem to alleviate symptoms, the doctor should be consulted.
Although your gut response might be to leave the stressful situation immediately, don’t. “Let your anxiety level come down,” advises Carmin. Then you can decide if you want to leave or if there's a way to get back to whatever you were doing when the anxiety attack started. Staying in the moment will help you overcome anxiety, but it’s hard to do this at first.
Panic disorder is characterized by repeated, unexpected panic attacks, as well as fear of experiencing another episode. A panic disorder may also be accompanied by agoraphobia, which is the fear of being in places where escape or help would be difficult in the event of a panic attack. If you have agoraphobia, you are likely to avoid public places such as shopping malls, or confined spaces such as an airplane.
Panic attacks are extremely unpleasant and can be very frightening. As a result, people who experience repeated panic attacks often become very worried about having another attack and may make changes to their lifestyle so as to avoid having panic attacks. For example, avoiding exercise so as to keep their heart rate low, or avoiding certain places.
Everyone here has issues, but what happens when you’re blue as hell and CANNOT figure out the source of the problem? There is no quote, no book, no video, no saying or phrase, no motto, which is helping me right now. I feel like absolute total HELL. And I damned well know it’s not going to last, and that it’s probably a result of thinking too hard, too long, too deeply. Anyway, thank you all for sharing your pain with strangers. It shows that you’re way stronger than you think.
Why stress happens and how to manage it Stress is essential for survival; the chemicals it triggers help the body prepare to face danger and cope with difficulty. Long-term stress is linked to various health conditions and can cause physical and psychological symptoms. How is it diagnosed, what types of stress are there, and how is it treated or managed?

SSRIs and SNRIs are commonly used to treat depression, but they are also helpful for the symptoms of panic disorder. They may take several weeks to start working. These medications may also cause side-effects, such as headaches, nausea, or difficulty sleeping. These side effects are usually not severe for most people, especially if the dose starts off low and is increased slowly over time. Talk to your doctor about any side effects that you have.
Antidepressants can take time to work, so it’s important to give the medication a chance before reaching a conclusion about its effectiveness. If you begin taking antidepressants, do not stop taking them without the help of a doctor. When you and your doctor have decided it is time to stop the medication, the doctor will help you slowly and safely decrease your dose. Stopping them abruptly can cause withdrawal symptoms.

The Gripen team in India is understood to have tried hard to push for the chance to demonstrate the fighter's "hot refuelling" capability, but was unable to do so after Indian Oil Aviation -- the standard supplier of aviation fuel to the Indian Air Force -- refused to be part of such an exercise. Hot refueling is a process by which a fighter is refuelled (in between sorties) while its engines are still on, thereby cutting down refuelling time by half and turn-around time significantly -- a capacity highly desirable in a combat situation, which basically puts aside the need for a pilot to park the aircraft, power down and exit the cockpit for refuelling to begin.
According to sources, the Gripen team was very keen to demonstrate the hot refuelling capability -- even the IAF had no problems witnessing the demonstration even though it wasn't required as part of the tests -- but the offer was shot down by Indian Oil, which said it had never conducted a hot refueling operation before, and wasn't sure it was equipped to take the risk, despite assurances from Saab that it was standard practice with the Gripen. Hot refueling, it must be said, does have its share of risks.
The incident has, however, had its effect. The IAF is now keen to witness a hot refueling demonstration, and will look favourably upon such a capability in its final evaluation of the MMRCA competition. Also, it has requested Indian Oil Aviation to set about getting itself certified for hot refueling ops for the future. IOC will need to look abroad for any sort of certification. Hot refueling trucks and crews in the US, for example, receive special training and certification from an agency in the USAF command structure.USAF Photo of Gripen at Nellis AFB, 2008

Ofer Lichtman of Rancho Cucamonga Fire Department (Calif.) is an expert on numerous subjects impacting the fire service including Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) and terrorism awareness. A few months ago, Lichtman provided a comprehensive interview on TECC and is back now to answer more questions on terrorism awareness.
Why is it important for firefighters to go through terrorism awareness training? What is the goal of the training program?
It is important for firefighters to go through terrorism awareness training because our profession in the last 15 years has changed dramatically. To be truly an all-risk fire department we must be prepared to handle all situations, and in this case adequately prepare our personnel to recognize terrorism activity and be a part of the solution, not the problem. Firefighters are in a unique position in our community where we already maintain a high degree of situational awareness. This allows us to identify things that appear suspicious in a geographical area we already know best. In this day and age it is negligent for professional firefighters to not be able to recognize and respond to terror activities in their communities. If we are an all-risk fire department, then we better be when that time comes.
The goal is to educate and train firefighter personnel to identify indicators of terrorism and respond and mitigate terrorism acts in our communities. We have a Terrorism Liaison Officer (TLO) program which takes a fire department’s sworn employee, who serves as a conduit for information between firefighters, local law enforcement and to the federal government. The TLO’s will report tips and leads from the floor personnel to the Joint Regional Intelligence Center (JRIC) and will communicate back to the department and keep our staff and fire fighters aware of current threats facing our community or region.
How often do firefighters go through the terrorism awareness program? What are the different aspects of the program?
We train our personnel on an annual basis. We update them on all different trends that can affect our local region. Each of our personnel is trained initially once they are hired and then annually thereafter. The annual training is to update personnel on current trends going on in the area and region. Curriculum consists of domestic terrorism, international terrorism and single issue terrorist groups. We also focus on activity shown through home grown terrorism as well as lone wolf activity. Different aspects of the program consist of prevention level and the response/mitigation model. The firefighters are put through educational as well as active, hands-on training. The hands-on training happens multiple times a year in order to prepare for any type of terrorist act. It is important to understand that our terrorism training and education is based on suspicious activity. It is not based on a certain group of people, culture or religion, but solely on activity that is suspicious.
Is this training required for all fire and EMS officials?
Yes, this training is mandatory for all firefighter personnel including refresher training. We are even employing basic awareness training for all city employees to learn about suspicious terrorism activity, what to do if you find yourself in a terrorist attack and how to treat yourself or co-worker from a preventable death injury involving hemorrhage control.
What are some of the most important aspects of the terrorism awareness program?
The most important aspect is to remember that as a professional fire department we must always remain vigilant and have a very high level of situational awareness. America is at war with different ideologies of people who want to hurt us and don’t agree with our way of life. The only way to increase our chance to prevent another 9/11 is to be vigilant and aware. When a small community has a disaster on a global scale it doesn’t seem as catastrophic, but if a small community loses a dozen people in a terrorist attack, that is very impactful for that community. It could happen anywhere, not just big cities. There is not just one specific profile of a terrorist. It could be anyone that has that ideology and will want to hurt us.
Do you lecture on this topic? If so, when will your next lecture be?
Yes, I do. I was at the next C-TECC meeting in San Marcos, Texas hosted by the ALERRT Conference on Nov. 1, 2015. I was also at the 2016 EMS Today Conference in Baltimore on Feb. 25, where I discussed the rescue task force model as well as ICS for the rescue task force.
About the Author:
Ofer Lichtman started out as a first responder in Israel and is currently the Terrorism Liaison Officer Coordinator for Rancho Cucamonga Fire Department (Calif.). Lichtman was instrumental in developing its Terrorism and Tactical Response Program. Lichtman is a member of the Joint Terrorism Task Force and is on the advisory board of the C-TECC.
About the Department:
The Rancho Cucamonga Fire Department (Calif.) has had a TLO program since 2009. They have fully adopted the TLO curriculum and all the Joint Regional Intelligence Center’s recommendations for a TLO program. The department has a liaison to the FBI’s joint terrorism task force in the area and is a point of contact for multiple agencies in their county regarding terrorism activity reporting.

Games The aircraft's range depends on variables such as the C-130 variant and conditions at the departure airport. The plan is to purchase and test a company set of 30 mm cannons and also determine if they should be issued for every Stryker or have one per company. , In February 2005, Army Chief of Staff Gen. Peter J. Schoomaker told the House Armed Services Committee that "we're absolutely enthusiastic about what the Stryker has done."  An early phase of the plan called for the introduction of an 'Interim Armored Vehicle', which was intended to fill the capability gap between heavier and heavily armed, but not easily deployable, vehicles, such as the M2 Bradley, and easily deployable vehicles that are lightly armed and protected, such as the Humvee. Tiles have to be specifically crafted for each vehicle type they are fitted to. In May 2009, General Dynamics and Rafael won a contract to provide SRAT tiles to replace slat armor on Strykers. Units from this Brigade participated in the, The 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team from. The cannons are meant to increase the ICV's lethality against other light armor vehicles while preserving its wheeled mobility advantages. Armament  However, in August 2018 the Army decided not to continue qualifying Iron Curtain onto the Stryker due to maturity issues with the system..  Never designed for front-line combat, the vehicles were nevertheless pressed into counterinsurgency roles for which there was an unmet need.  The cannon is also able to fire airburst rounds that explode above a target to hit enemy troops behind barriers and can defend against unmanned aerial vehicles. DVH Strykers include a new hull configuration, increased armor, upgraded suspension and braking systems, wider tires, blast-attenuating seats, and a height management system.  In addition, the slat armor on the Stryker vehicles is reportedly effective against HEAT rounds. Soldiers can practice training with the vehicles from computer training modules inside the vehicle.  Even though this test was a success, none of the Stryker variants have been certified for airdrop. Seven Stryker versions are being produced in this configuration; the M1256 ICVV, M1252 MCVV, M1255 The additional weight of the two systems is comparable, but reactive armor tiles offer greater vehicle stability and maneuverability and "assured" rather than "statistical" protection.. To upgrade the existing fleet, the Army has implemented an Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) program to provide a stronger engine, improved suspension, more on-board electrical power, and next-generation networking and computing technology.

What puts a smile on our faces here at Life is Crap Headquarters, are the upside down crappy moments that make the Olympics real.
Manchester, Vermont (PRWEB) February 25, 2014
“OMG – the Olympic Village has run out of condoms!” was a tweet heard during the last week of the Sochi winter Olympics. Someone turned on their faucet and watched as sewage sludge spilled out. Rumor had it that one could drink the water – but not wash with it for fear of slowly disintegrating skin. Bobsledder Johnny Quinn had to break out of his bathroom. From malfunctioning Olympic rings to shooting wild dogs in the streets of Sochi, the 2014 Winter Olympics had its fair share of crappy moments. While most prefer to celebrate the great acts of athletic excellence, the joy of victory, the agony of defeat, the tales of heroism and courage and years of dedication and commitment and the come from behind unexpected gold medal wins … What really puts a smile on the faces of the guys at Life is Crap headquarters are the upside down crappy moments that make the Olympics real. Crap happens and they don’t like sweeping it under the Olympic carpet! The LIC team has put together the top ten list of Memorable Olympic Moments, and hope their fans will get a kick out of them.
•Malfunctioning Ring: one of the stubborn snowflakes was supposed to turn into an Olympic ring! It never happened.
•A member of the Austrian team slipped and fell to the ground during the opening ceremonies while his teammates continued to walk on and take pictures.
•Pussy Riot, a Russian protest group held a press conference where they released a song titled “Putin Will Teach You to Love the Motherland. The press conference came to an end when they were whipped at the hands of Cossacks and harassed by a man dressed as a chicken!
•Russian Speed Skater Olga Graf thrilled spectators when after winning a bronze medal she unzipped her racing suit down to her belly button, forgetting that she was wearing nothing underneath!
•The face that launched a million tweets: Day one wasn’t over when American figure skater gave a bizarre look of disbelief that was caught on camera.
•Hubertus von Hohenlohe, the 55 year old Mexican ski racer didn’t come close to winning a medal – but he won the worst dressed award for wearing a mariachi speed suit to his race!
•A corrupt Russian skating judge, who had been suspended for trying to fix an event at the winter Olympics in the past voted to give gold to Adelina Sotnikova who wasn’t even Russia’s top medal hope. The world ripped the decision.
•Bob Costas had to step aside from anchoring the Olympics when his “eye infection” (sure Bob!) got so bad that his red eyes distracted the viewers. Rumor had it he’d recently visited Colorado where pot has been legal and forgot his visine at home!
•The Sochi Strays. The Olympic city had a dog problem. Thousands of stays were found wandering the streets. Journalists reported that they were being rounded up an killed. Activists were in an uproar. Russian authorities had egg on their face, or was it Alpo, and ended up setting up shelters to take in the pooches. Rumor has it the shelters were the unfinished rooms that were supposed to house the Athletes, so athletes moved into the dog pound.
•And let’s not forget the Jamaican Bob Sled Team – who came in dead last but signed more autographs than the gold medal team! They launched two hit singles: “No Medal No Cry” and “Coming in from the Gold” and have signed a new contract with Sochi Sound a new record label owned by Vladimir Putin.
In the end though, all were inspired and engaged with amazing feats of bravery, excellence, endurance, fellowship, team spirit and hope. Whether they won or they lost, the road to the Olympics is paved with heartbreak, sacrifice, exhaustion, failure and exhilaration. These young athletes aspire to be the best that they can be – and their passion and commitment is anything but crappy.
So, help celebrate the Olympics crappy and happy moments with an expression from one of Life is Crap’s specially designed for The Sochi Winter Collection.

Actor Mohanlal has given a “big salute” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s decision to demonetise high-value currency notes.
“I see it as a surgical strike with good intention – his speech as well as actions that followed. I don’t worship personalities, but I idolize ideas which are honest. I see this decision as one of that. Beyond the initial difficulties I understand this is a good cause,” Mohanlal wrote in his blog.
A Big Salute to Virtuous India
“When such a big decision is taken, it won’t be in ignorance. I understand the difficulties of standing in a queue. We stand in long queues outside liquor outlets, cinema theaters, and religious places. There is no harm in standing in a queue for a good cause too, is what I think,” the actor added.
My Latest Blog: " A Big Salute to Virtuous India "https://t.co/WWuSNN4tKt
— Mohanlal (@Mohanlal) November 21, 2016
On Monday, the same day Mohanlal was shooting for a film in Rajasthan, two people died in Kerala.
68-year-old Chandran RC collapsed in Kollam while standing outside in queue at State Bank of Travancore. He had left home four hours before, according to the police. Despite being rushed to a hospital, he was declared brought dead by doctors.
In another incident in Kottayam, 73-year-old Ommanna Kuttappan Pillai committed suicide. According to the police, his family members claimed that he had been extremely anxious about his savings at a co-operative bank and whether he would be able to withdraw it.
Due to the new Reserve Bank of India guidelines to not permit co-operative banks to participate in an exchange of notes, operations in these banks have come to a stand still.

A new report by Milliman released Thursday found that Silver plans with combined deductibles offered through the Health Insurance Exchanges may require patients to pay more than twice as much out of pocket for prescription medicines overall as they would under a typical employer plan.
The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America and the National Minority Quality Forum announced on Wednesday a first-of-its-kind national campaign to help increase diversity in clinical trials.
America’s biopharmaceutical research companies currently are developing 180 new medicines to help the nearly 400 million people who have diabetes worldwide, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America announced Tuesday.
A vaccine to slow the progression of HIV and a monoclonal antibody that protects against influenza are among the nearly 300 vaccines under development by drug makers in the United States, according to a new report by a drug industry trade group.
Generic Pharmaceutical Association president and CEO Ralph Neas called it “the most important pharmaceutical legislation since the 1984 Hatch-Waxman Act.” John Castellani, president and CEO of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, said the law served “the best interests of America’s patients.”
Keynote speeches by pharmaceutical industry and regulatory leaders got top billing as more than 140 government, healthcare industry, law enforcement and patient advocacy officials gathered to find ways to combat the spread of counterfeit medicines.
In July, the country’s largest trade group representing the drug industry released a report showing nearly 200 drugs under clinical development or Food and Drug Administration review for treating mental disorders.
Drug makers have 901 biotech drugs under development for more than 100 diseases ranging from cancers and infectious diseases to autoimmune disorders and cardiovascular diseases, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America said.

Religious trauma that comes about through involvement with a faith based group, can be very debilitating and not unlike other forms of PTSD.
For many people, leaving can be as difficult as staying and once a decision has been made to exit a particularly controlling lifestyle, the difficulties of following through with the transition may feel overwhelming.
It is understandable, that the longer a person has been involved with a controlling religious organisation, the more difficult that transition will be. A completely new way of living, thinking and operating is a process that can't be expected to happen overnight..
So what are some of the real pressures and anxieties that can face those brave enough to exit a cult-like religious group?
* Leaving can mean recovering from the abuse of narcissists - because that is often the personality type of those 'at the top'. Those of whom everyone trusts and places their faith in unawares of their manipulation.
* Leaving and deciding upon a different pathway can be difficult due to commonly losing contact with everyone they have known and associated with. That is part of the hold over the community - knowing that many people will choose the status quo over isolation.
* The 'us and them' mentality that is common with cult-like religions has been manifested into an individuals mindset for so long, that it can cause considerable anxiety when attempting to fit in with the general population. This is especially so if the teachings have always highlighted that a mainstream lifestyle is bad and fraught with evil .... that being 'worldly' is a slippery slope.
* A lingering and self-inflicted shame and embarrassment can take place both from disappointing family members and friends by wanting to part with the community. However, these emotions are also apparent when making new friendships and possibly having to face questions on how it was that you were ever part of a cult like religion. People are understandably fascinated but that doesn't help the individual wanting to fit in.
* Self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy can be common due to possibly many years of not being encouraged to explore one's potential. It is a trait of faith based trauma (particularly females) to not have pursued dreams and career aspirations due to not either believing themselves worthy or being told there was no need.
So where now? Every individual's circumstance is different and there is no one size fits all solution. What there is however, is light at the end of the tunnel whereby you have every chance of moving forward to enjoy many rewarding years ahead. Such a recovery cannot happen quickly but you need to start somewhere and it is very difficult to do do it alone or without a 'tool box'.
Please do not hesitate to make contact and book in an initial confidential information call where you can ask questions and it can be explained how sessions based on both cognitive behavioural therapy and hypnotherapy can assist you on the path to living your best life.

I love Blender…
And I tell people a lot about how much it can do. Yet, People often think it doesn’t do the same sort of stuff that people can do in Maya and 3DSMax in regards to TV quality visuals.
A lot of visuals are faked by using real photographs. Guess what? Blender can do that too.
So on this tutorial, we talk about two things, Fspy and UVProject. Fspy is a free, open source software that creates a camera and it’s position from the vertical and horizontal planes in our picture and exports them into Blender via an addon that you get when you get the software. And UVProject is a modifier – see I’m still all about the modifiers – that makes the UV mapping for your shader correspond with the view from your camera.
Couple these two together, and you can quickly create scenes that would take forever to build and shade.
And Hollywood has been using this process for years to make environments seem real.
You can find out more about Fspy here:
The photo used in this tutorial has come from unsplash
And the person who photographed it is Nolan Issac:
Take a look at the video below to find out more. Better still, subscribe to the channel and you’ll see a new one of these every week. Sometimes a “One by One” where we talk about what each part of blender does – at the moment we are concentrating on modifiers – other times tutorials on specific things or quick tips to make your life easier.
You want to see something not here? Then let me know in the comments. I’m always keen to help out where I can.
Take care and stay safe.

TONTITOWN, AR - The Duggar family has announced their chosen presidential candidate for 2020: Kanye West. Their support for West was revealed after he suggested giving everybody who has a baby $1 million.
"Hoo boy... a million per kid," said Jim Bob Duggar, pulling out a napkin and pencil and doing some quick math. "I think we could pull in a cool $10 million a year. Hey, Michelle! Is it cool if we support Kanye?"
He looked to Michelle for support. She ignored him.
"Ah well. She'll come around on the Kanye thing."
The Duggars were concerned about some of Kanye's wackier statements and antics, but at the end of the day, they decided that the ability to make millions of dollars just by doing what they do best -- making babies -- was worth it. "We already got the TV show, and that's pretty swell," said Jim Bob Duggar. "But man -- maybe we could finally build that giant Jello pool I've always wanted."
He looked to Michelle for support. She shook her head.
"Ah well. She'll come around on the Jello pool."
Homeschooling families, Latter-day Saints, and Catholics also rallied behind Kanye West thanks to the $1 million per baby proposal.

A pneumatic impact wrench is one such tool that seems very practical, but you may be hesitant in purchasing one. Here are three ways that you can use a rongpeng pneumatic impact wrench to make your at home jobs far easier, faster, and more enjoyable. When you are starting to think about an impact wrench, it is always important to first learn how to use an impact wrench to avoid injury and damage to the wrench itself.
1.Working on Cars, Small Engines, and Lawn Mowers- Everyone knows that replacing a tire requires that the lug nuts be secure and very tight to prevent it from coming loose while driving. A Rongpeng air impact wrench can help you to tighten the lug nuts enough to prevent the wheel from falling off while driving and to make sure that the hub cap and wheel stay in place. You can also use a Rongpeng air impact wrench when working on engines, things like lawn mowers, and other small engines that need a very securely tightened nut or bolt. Engines vibrate when they are working so it is crucial that they are tightened enough that the parts are not going to fly off when they are being used. A rongpeng air impact wrench can help you to make sure your nuts and bolts are tight and secure so that you are going to have a wonderful experience rather than a fly apart.
2.Loosening Machine Tightened Nuts and Bolts- For starters, any nut or bolt that is tightened by a machine is going to be much tighter than your average hand tool tightening. Though you may be able to work one loose with a normal wrench, it is going to take time, effort, and may end in injury. An air impact wrench has the power and ability to quickly remove these machine tightened nuts and bolts to make for a much easier process and help get your projects much faster. Rongpeng pneumatic wrenches are assisted by your air compressor so it is going to have far more power than your own hands and body would ever have. This means that you can quickly loosen these nuts and bolts without hurting yourself.

The Taliban's swift takeover of Afghanistan in recent days brought chaos and uncertainty to the war-torn nation, while also halting the Afghanistan Paralympic Committee's plans to send a team to Tokyo.
Andrew Parsons, the president of the International Paralympic Committee, announced on Wednesday, August 18 that the situation in Afghanistan is such that the nation's Paralympians can't make it to Tokyo.
“There are no commercial flights. We all have seen the images from the airport in Kabul. It became clear to us right from the beginning that there will be no safe way to try to bring these athletes to Tokyo," noted Parson, speaking in an interview with Reuters.
Afghanistan's small delegation to the Tokyo Paralympics was to include two athletes: Zakia Khudadadi, who competes in taekwondo, and discus thrower Hossain Rasouli.
Parsons elaborated on the matter a day after his announcement, telling a news conference, "So far we believe that at the moment, we don't have a way to bring the Afghani athletes to Tokyo in a safe way for them, in a way that will preserve their safety," Kyodo News reported.
"We believe it is now time to focus on them as human beings and we want to guarantee that they are safe. It will put them at a higher risk if we try to bring them to compete in Tokyo."
Arian Sadiqi, the Afghanistan Paralympic Committee's chef de mission, confirmed earlier this week that Khudadadi and Rasouli won't be competing.
"Unfortunately due to the current upheaval going on in Afghanistan the team could not leave Kabul in time,” Sadiqi said, according to Reuters.
Zakia Khudadadi speaks in an interview with Reuters TV. (Reuters/via Kyodo News)
Sadiqi, who lives in London, expressed disappointment in the fact that the news developments in Afghanistan quashed Khudadadi's and Rasouli's dreams. He also reflected on what the significance of the 23-year-old Khudadadi's participation in the Paralympics would have been.
“They were really excited prior to the situation. They were training wherever they could, in the parks and back gardens. [She] would have been the first female Afghan taekwondo player to take part," Sadiqi was quoted as saying by Reuters.
He added: "This was history in the making. She was excited to take part. She was very passionate to compete. Zakia would have been a great role model for the rest of the females in the country."

Announcing HDP 2.1 Tech Preview Component: Apache Spark
Hadoop 2 and its YARN-based architecture has increased the interest in new engines to be run on Hadoop and one such workload is in-memory computing for machine learning and data science use cases. Apache Spark has emerged as an attractive option for this type of processing and today, we announce availability of our HDP 2.1 Tech Preview Component of Apache Spark. This is a key addition to the platform and brings another workload supported by YARN on HDP.
There has been a marked increase in interest among data scientists and enthusiasts for Apache Spark as they explore new ways to perform their very unique yet complex task in Hadoop. Our customers are investigating this technology as Spark allows key resources to effectively and simply implement iterative algorithms for advanced analytics such as clustering and classification of datasets. It provides three key value points to developers,
- in-memory compute for iterative workloads,
- a simplified programming model in Scala,
- and machine learning libraries to simply programming.
The Hortonworks Commitment
Hortonworks’ tech preview of Apache Spark is part of a larger initiative that will bring the best of heterogeneous, tiered storage, and resource-based models of computing together with the broader Hadoop community starting at the core of HDFS and working outward from there.
Our focus remains on delivering a fast, safe, scalable, and manageable platform on a consistent footprint that includes HDFS, YARN, Tez, Ambari, Knox, and Falcon to name just a few of the critical components of enterprise Hadoop. We are working within this comprehensive set of components and hope to make Apache Spark “enterprise ready” so that our customers can confidently adopt it.
We have already completed baseline work to integrate Spark on YARN with HDP and want to make this available so that we work with customers to identify use cases which are best suited for this technology. Spark has the potential to meet the complex requirements of data science and machine learning use cases. We encourage you to download our Tech Preview today and engage us so we can build out this key technology together.

Masdar and Bee’ah to build 300,000 tonne waste-to-energy plant in Sharjah
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates; January 18, 2017: Masdar, Abu Dhabi’s renewable energy company, is to develop a cutting-edge waste-to-energy plant in Sharjah in partnership with Bee’ah, the Middle East’s leading and award-winning environmental management company, it was announced today at Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2017.
Diverting as much as 300,000 tonnes of solid waste from landfill each year, the project will help Sharjah reach its “zero waste-to-landfill” target by 2020 – and the UAE deliver on its 2021 goal of diverting 75 per cent of solid waste from landfills.
Masdar and Bee’ah signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on the development of new energy projects at ADSW 2016. The facility will incinerate up to 37.5 tonnes of solid waste per hour to generate 30 megawatts (MW) of energy. This will add more power to what is produced by Bee’ah’s auxiliary waste-to-energy project, which will eventually produce a total of 90 MW supplied to the Sharjah electricity grid.
Khaled Al Huraimel, Group CEO of Bee’ah, said: “Today marks the first venture in the realisation of the partnership that we announced with Masdar last year. The cutting-edge waste-to-energy plant in Sharjah is a concrete example of what this strategic partnership will deliver to the UAE and the communities that we serve. We, at Bee’ah, have always been driven by our mission to make the UAE an icon of environmental best practices, and this plant will help us achieve our ambitious environmental goals for the Emirate.
“The agreement signed today will lead to more projects and bold initiatives that will help the partnership to ensure a sustainable and green future for the UAE.”
Established in 2007, Bee’ah collects approximately 2.3 million tonnes of waste from nearly one million households in Sharjah each year, diverting around 70 per cent of its collected waste to its recycling waste management facilities from landfill.
“As one of the leading renewable energy developers in the Middle East and North Africa, we are proud to enter into a partnership with Bee’ah that will both diversify our clean energy portfolio and help commercialise sustainable solutions to Sharjah’s and the UAE’s waste management challenges,” said Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer of Masdar.
“With GCC countries having among the highest rates of per-capita waste production in the world, sustainable waste management solutions are both critically important and a clear business opportunity. Masdar will combine its proven expertise in renewable energy project development over the last ten years with Bee’ah’s track record in environmentally responsible waste management, to deliver a project that will catalyse further investment in waste-to-energy infrastructure in the UAE and beyond.”
Masdar’s Clean Energy division is a leading developer and owner of utility-scale, grid-connected projects; remote applications providing energy access to communities away from the electricity grid; and carbon abatement projects. Since 2006, Masdar has invested in renewable energy projects with a combined value of US$8.5 billion; Masdar’s share of these projects is US$2.7 billion.
Masdar’s renewable energy projects span the UAE, Jordan, Mauritania, Egypt, Morocco, the UK, Serbia and Spain. The electricity generating capacity of these projects, which are either fully developed or under development, is 2.7 gigawatts (GW) gross.
Elsewhere in the UAE, Masdar is adopting waste management best practices in the development of Masdar City in Abu Dhabi, one of the world’s most sustainable urban developments. Its on-site construction waste management demonstration project reuses and recycles waste building materials from the City’s construction, including metal, plastic, wood and construction aggregate.
About Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week
The annual Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW), hosted by Masdar, is an Abu Dhabi government initiative that aims to address the interconnected challenges of clean energy, water and sustainable development. Anchored by the World Future Energy Summit, ADSW features a series of complementary conferences, exhibitions and events, including the general assembly of the International Renewable Energy Agency, the Award Ceremony of the Zayed Future Energy Prize, the International Water Summit, EcoWASTE and The Festival@Masdar City.

Roses are beautiful, fragrant and can be cared for easily while they thrive in your garden. Unfortunately, they can suffer from a variety of problems that can make them look less than desirable, so it’s important to know what to do if you want to keep them healthy.
How to maintain your garden of roses
Roses are beautiful flowers that are well worth the time and effort it takes to keep them alive. Here are some tips for keeping your roses alive for a long time. Roses are beautiful and sweet, but their care is not easy. Roses require a lot of work.
Here are some tips on how to maintain your garden of roses:
The essential step is to plant them in well-drained soil that drains quickly. Roses also need plenty of sunlight and fresh air, so make sure you place them near windows or doors. Finally, give your roses lots of water and cut the dead leaves away regularly. Roses are beautiful, but they’re also expensive. This is why you should invest in a rose garden that is properly maintained. Roses require a lot of care, so if you want to keep your roses looking good for years to come, here are some tips on how to do it:
Best practices for growing roses
Roses can be grown from cuttings and even from seed. With an abundance of flowers and foliage in your garden, you will have more than enough for your family. To maintain the garden, remove dead flowers, cut back on water to encourage flower buds to emerge, remove excess foliage during the fall, and prune roses during winter
How often do you need to worry about insects?
Roses can be hard to maintain. If you want to keep your roses healthy and thriving, you’ll need to pay close attention to their feeding and watering habits, as well as the beauty of their flowers. Roses are also susceptible to insect pests such as aphids, rose-stem borers and whiteflies. To prevent these issues from happening, try using organic pesticides or fruit flies like they sell in garden stores.
What is the best time to water your garden of roses?
In the spring, you should water your garden of roses two to three times a week. Don’t forget about the roots and to let them dry out between each watering so that they don’t get too much water. In the summer, it’s best to water only once or twice a week.
The garden should be watered every day. It is also important to deadhead the roses so that new flowers will grow instead of dying. Make sure to remove any dead leaves, and keep the rose bushes trimmed.

American Express & Costco to End Partnership
American Express announced today that they were unable to come to an agreement with Costco to extend their relationship. The current contract between the two companies will end on March 31, 2016.
Since the agreement still has more than a year, I find it surprising that an announcement would be made so soon. It is my guess that American Express and Costco were too far apart to agree to terms. Costco has already adopted Capital One as their credit card partner in Canada which may be an indication that they are looking to go in another direction.
According to the press release, “Until that time, all American Express credit cards will be accepted at Costco warehouse stores in the U.S and on Costco.com. All co-branded cards from American Express and Costco can be used any place American Express cards are accepted through March 31, 2016.”
It will be interesting to see what happens with the co-branded cards once the agreement ends. It is clear that they will no longer be accepted at Costco, but not much else has been announced.
In my opinion, this isn’t a huge deal for anyone other than possibly American Express. I am interested to see if Costco will begin accepting either Visa or Mastercard when they find their new partner. Of course Sam’s Club also recently kicked Discover to the curb as well. A Discover/Costco partnership would be interesting!

This would be the worst travel agency i have ever booked a ticket with. I just wanna share my experience.
They booked an international flight ticket and CANCELLED it, WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. I had to embarrass myself with that cancelled tickets at the airport and book tickets with double fare to travel on the next day.
Worst part is they did not help me recover my loss and are not even ready to communicate. This is highly unprofessional and a very bad experience(it is an under statement).
Never go to them asking for a ticket, who knows, you are gonna be the next victim.

September 9, 2020 – The controversy surrounding unlicensed off-dock trucking at the Port of Vancouver deepened this week, with the Office of the B.C. Container Trucking Commissioner (OBCCTC) defending the work.
“The off-dock container trucking activity Unifor refers to as (a) ‘black market’ activity and the United Truckers Association (UTA) calls ‘illegal’, is not illegal,” Commissioner Michael Crawford said Tuesday. Unifor, Canada’s largest private sector union, had demanded a crackdown on what it called a large container trucking black market at the port, and the UTA is planning to hold a Labour Day protest outside the commissioner’s office to highlight the issue. The two groups say unlicensed truckers are moving containers off-dock within the Lower Mainland area at steeply discounted prices and undermining licensed, fee-paying companies. In a written response to Today’s Trucking, Crawford said that under the Container Trucking Act and Regulation, the commissioner has jurisdiction to regulate and licence container trucking work that requires access to a marine terminal. If a trucking company needs access to a marine terminal, it requires a licence and then must pay the commissioner’s trucking rates for on and off-dock work, he said. “Trucking companies engaged only in off-dock trucking are not required to have a licence, and do not fall within the scope of the Container Trucking Act and Regulation,” he said.

Berlioz was the first Romantic master of the orchestra. His music hasn't been surpassed in terms of sheer brilliance and accuracy of effect. This set includes all of the overtures, the Symphonie fantastique, Harold in Italy, the Royal Hunt and Storm from Les Troyens, orchestral music from The Damnation of Faust and Romeo and Juliet, and the completely insane Grande Symphonie funebre et triumphale. Davis achieved his reputation as a conductor as a Berlioz specialist, and he proves an expert advocate on behalf of this stimulating, bizarre, and totally original genius.
The Lemon Pipers' Golden Classics is a mid-priced collection spotlighting several of the bubblegum band's late-'60 tracks, including "Rice Is Nice," "Jelly Jungle (Of Orange Marmalade)," and their number one hit from 1967, "Green Tambourine." This Collectables compilation alongside Buddah's Best of the Lemon Pipers: Green Tambourine are just about equal in sound quality and definitive track listing.
This three-disc box set from Sony gathers up the first three long-players from Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac. Released in 1968, Fleetwood Mac (often referred to as Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac) was a blues-rock juggernaut that stayed on the U.K. charts for nearly 40 weeks, while that same year's Mr. Wonderful beefed up the band's already meaty sound with a full horn section. Appearing in 1969, Pious Bird of Good Omen offered up a collection of B-sides and singles that were recorded between 1967 and 1968.
This five-disc set, contained in a cardboard sleeve that bundles standard jewel cases, consists of Lonnie Liston Smith & the Cosmic Echoes' four albums for Flying Dutchman – Astral Traveling (1973), Cosmic Funk (1974), Expansions (1974), and Visions of a New World (1975) – along with their first for RCA, Reflections of a Golden Dream (1976). Some of the albums were intermittently elusive, at least when it came to the CD format, throughout the years, so this was a convenient – and affordable – way to get them in one shot. However, it went out of print quickly after its 2009 release.

This neckpart can be used in combination with the Turnout Rug All Weather blanket
This neck piece can be used in combination with the Turnout Rug All Weather blanket. The outer fabric is made of 1680D high tenacity polyester, which makes the neck area extremely strong and durable. Thanks to the waterproof and breathable PU coating, it is breathable, dirt-repellent and yet resistant to all weather conditions. The neck area is fully lined with artificial rabbit fur (100% animal-friendly). This provides extra heat as it creates small air bubbles that trap the horse's body heat. It also gives an extremely comfortable feeling and makes your horse's coat shine. It prevents chafing of the mane. Even the rim behind the ears is covered with artificial rabbit fur. The Neck section is attached to the blanket using four strong Velcro fasteners and closed with two strong Velcro fasteners. The neck area is machine washable at 30°, no dryer.

This year’s recalls and warnings range from the odd — a strange odor in a thyroid medicine bottle — to the terrifying. An anti-malaria drug has been upgraded to a box warning for its potential to cause side-effects from dizziness to paranoia.
1. FDA Drug Safety Communication: Risk of next-morning impairment after use of insomnia drugs; FDA requires lower recommended doses for certain drugs containing zolpidem (Ambien, Ambien CR, Edluar, and Zolpimist)
January 10, 2013
“The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning doctors and patients about the risk of next-morning impairment after use of sleep aids. The FDA is now requiring lower recommended doses for certain insomnia drugs containing zolpidem (Ambien, Ambien CR, Edluar, and Zolpimist).”

2. Azithromycin (Zithromax®) – Risk of Arrhythmia and Cardiovascular Death
Updated March 12, 2013
“The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning the public that azithromycin (Zithromax or Zmax) can cause abnormal changes in the electrical activity of the heart that may lead to a potentially fatal irregular heart rhythm. Patients at particular risk for developing this condition include those with known risk factors such as existing QT interval prolongation, low blood levels of potassium or magnesium, a slower than normal heart rate, or use of certain drugs used to treat abnormal heart rhythms, or arrhythmias”
3. Pfizer Recalls Thyroid Drug Over Odor
April 3, 2013
“Pfizer Inc. has recalled about 52,000 bottles of thyroid-disease treatment Levoxyl because of complaints of uncharacteristic odors in some bottles.
“Pfizer stopped shipping the drug in February after learning of the odor problem, and may not have new supply available until 2014 because any changes to the product may take time to evaluate, spokeswoman Lauren Starr said. The product has been added to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s list of drug shortages.
“The uncharacteristic odor in the Levoxyl bottles was caused by an oxygen-absorbing canister that is packaged in the 100-tablet and 1,000-tablet bottles to enhance product stability. An odor that has been described as “plasticlike” may result while the canister collects oxygen from the air, Ms. Starr said.
“The New York-based drug maker said the odor problem is unlikely to cause any health problems, but after discussing the situation with the FDA, Pfizer decided to issue a voluntary recall “out of an abundance of caution.” No adverse health consequences have been reported. The canister hasn’t been used in other Pfizer products.”

4. Mefloquine Hydrochloride: Drug Safety Communication – Label Changes Due To Risk of Serious Psychiatric and Nerve Side Effects
July 29, 2013
“FDA is advising the public about strengthened and updated warnings regarding neurologic and psychiatric side effects associated with the antimalarial drug mefloquine hydrochloride. A boxed warning, the most serious kind of warning about these potential problems, has been added to the drug label. FDA has revised the patient Medication Guide dispensed with each prescription and wallet card to include this information and the possibility that the neurologic side effects may persist or become permanent. The neurologic side effects can include dizziness, loss of balance, or ringing in the ears. The psychiatric side effects can include feeling anxious, mistrustful, depressed, or having hallucinations.”

5. Johnson & Johnson to Pay More Than $2.2 Billion to Resolve Criminal and Civil Investigations
November 4, 2013
“Global health care giant Johnson & Johnson (J&J) and its subsidiaries will pay more than $2.2 billion to resolve criminal and civil liability arising from allegations relating to the prescription drugs Risperdal, Invega and Natrecor, including promotion for uses not approved as safe and effective by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and payment of kickbacks to physicians and to the nation’s largest long-term care pharmacy provider. The global resolution is one of the largest health care fraud settlements in U.S. history, including criminal fines and forfeiture totaling $485 million and civil settlements with the federal government and states totaling $1.72 billion.”

DX is not another Royal Mail but investors do like a timely delivery. In a week of heroic stock market debuts, the delivery company’s second coming was a roaring success, and shares offered at 100p fetched 130p by the close of play.
Back in October, Royal Mail finished a frantic first day’s trading 38 per cent to the good. DX’s new investors won’t mind a repeat of what has happened since. Floated at 330p, shares in the former state postal service are trading above £6, though 2p easier yesterday at 602½p.

He pled guilty almost exactly a year after the shooting, on Feb. 26, 2013, and later received three life sentences.
