...mind you guys comin' round my house," Soupy Sales once said to the off-camera guys who were cracking up at his jokes, "but why'd you have to bring cameras in?" His afternoon TV show, which was aimed at kids and ran in Detroit, Los Angeles and New York off and on from the 1950s through the '70s, had the seeming informality of a friendly fellow you would hire to entertain the tots. He'd crack venerable jokes, play with puppets, teach the occasional verity ("Don't eat just before dinner") and, at the end, get a custard...

...they will someday help the world grow its way out of its addiction to oil. Nine billion gallons of corn ethanol were produced in the U.S. in 2008, while countries like Brazil have already widely replaced gasoline with ethanol from sugar cane and countless start-ups are working to bring cellulosic and other second-generation biofuels to market.

...between the spectacle of “Rhodes” and the high drama of “Throwdown.” This episode is somewhere in the middle, with entirely too much Will Schuester but mercifully less out-of-his-genre antics than in episode three. Still, we bring your attention to Best Week Ever’s current petition on the embarrassing state of affairs. We’re also troubled by the continuing trend of improbable, sudden emotional developments. Sue and Rob made a great storyline, just like Kurt and Mercedes, but why do the writers insist...

...policymakers look for ways to control health-care costs, the price of biologics is drawing more and more scrutiny. The obvious model for bringing in competition is a 1984 law that Waxman wrote with Republican Senator Orrin Hatch. It lowered the regulatory obstacles that prevented generic drugs from making their way to market. At the time, it was expected that fast-tracking the approval of "bioequivalent" drugs would bring down medical costs by $1 billion a year. But with generics now accounting for more than 70% of prescriptions dispensed in the U.S., "the actual savings have exceeded our wildest expectations...
