...denounce young men rioting in the suburbs last year - an outcry that also coincided with his jump in polls. The street patois of those ethnically diverse projects, meanwhile, has also long contained its own racially aggressive "shock" element, with the rejoinder "ta race" (your race) a kind of generic, all-purpose slight. Clearly, the political "filter" in the U.S. public square that prompts a Michael Richards or a Mel Gibson to grovel apologetically following publicly recorded racial insults is considerably less developed in France. Indeed, last year's riots were a stark reminder of how poorly France has done...
...instruments, but onstage they?d just slow him down. He needed his hands and legs free to prowl, keep the band pumped up, work the crowd into a practiced frenzy. For 50 years, he was a full-service entertainer. James Brown, a name so common it was almost a generic pseudonym like John Doe, was one of a kind...
...future, Harvard can ameliorate the access gap by pushing for “access-minded licensing,” insisting that generic drug companies be allowed to produce and distribute patented drugs originating from their labs for markets in the developing world. Patents are intended to encourage innovation, but innovation and public health are not mutually exclusive. Low- and middle-income countries together make up only five to seven percent of the global branded pharmaceutical market—and Africa only around one percent. Generic production of life-saving drugs in the developing world would result in minimal losses...
...That's how many HIV-positive children in the developing world actually get treatment for their disease. It's not a surprising statistic, given the state of health care in many developing nations, but it's one that the Clinton Foundation wants to change. The foundation - in collaboration with generic India-based drug makers Cipla, Ranbaxy and others - announced on Thursday that it had negotiated lower prices for 19 different pediatric AIDS drugs, slashing the price tag for these medications by 45% from their current minimum market price for the developing world. The foundation even went one step further - they...
...does love to do is write laws, and he has been extraordinarily good at it. The walls of his Washington office are covered with framed pens that Presidents from Ronald Reagan to Bill Clinton used to sign the laws that Waxman helped make a reality: the Clean Air Act, generic-drug legislation, food- and toy-safety laws, and Medicare catastrophic coverage, to name a few. In 1994, as chairman of the health and environment subcommittee, he lined up the chief executives of the nation's biggest tobacco companies, had them raise their right hands and then shredded them as finely...
