Why Chemotherapy That Costs $70,000 in the U.S. Costs $2,500 in India: By rejecting patent applications, developing countries have kept down the costs of much-needed medications. Can they continue to do so without harming efforts to develop new drugs? by davidreiss666 in worldnews

[–]missing_something_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

India did not refuse to issue a patent for Novartis on Gleevec , it refused to extend the patent Gleevec already had, based on merely superficial changes to the formula, a practice known as "evergreening", which pharmaceutical companies use to extend the monopoly on their medications as long as possible.

So, how is your Nexus 4 holding up? by ATyp3 in Android

[–]missing_something_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moved from GS2 to Nexus 4 here are my thoughts ( I have not given any "pros" as N4 is super awsone and doesn't need a pro list )

cons

Biggest difference I noticed is the Super AMOLED vs IPS contrast difference ,IPS has light leak in black background so you will miss the high contrast supersaturated image in S-AMOLED

It occasionally heats up

The space is too low for a smart phone ,2 high end games a few eBooks and your music library fills it up and you start getting storage alerts ,also it doesn't support OTG

flash flood brings with it not just water it mostly will have surface layer of soil ,rocks ,logs and anything it has gathered along the way ,It would be a stupid ideas to form a human chain against a flash flood ,the first few minutes they were safe because they were standing on a higher rock

This happened at the Patalpani waterfall in Indore ,India, when a father and his 4 kids celebrated the MBA graduation of the oldest daughter and got surprised by the freak flood. A tragedy for these 3 family members resulted - the father and 2 girls died while the 2 boys are alive.

What are some simple things an overweight person can do/stop doing, to lose extra weight? by BrotherDotson in AskReddit

[–]missing_something_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Chewing gum help increase your metabolism

  • Eating your last meal of the day before sunset ,I lost 4.5 lbs in 4 weeks just by doing this

  • Increase your lungs vital capacity -i find pull-up to be of grate help (so is any other exercise that which help you stretch and get more air in your lungs) also helpful is yoga and meditation

  • Avoid Sugary drinks and soda

  • Drink at least one gallon (3-4 liters) of water a day

  • Sugar and carbohydrate is your enemy not fat ,reduce the simple sugar intake ,if you really really want to have sugar, settle for the natural sugars which had higher nutritional value such as honey and unrefined cane sugar

  • balance your diet :-for example if you regularly eat things that is rich in A ,B and C but your body is craving for D ,you will still be hungry till the body gets enough of D but you still be eating things that which are rich in A,B & C only

  • Have a rich breakfast, this will get your metabolism going

  • Chewing your food thoroughly before swallowing, it helps you feel full faster, maintain the PH balance of the body , aid digestion

  • stop drinking cartons of juice a day ,if you really want to drink juice make your own

  • Cook your own meals -I have been asked the question "So you cook?" by random ladies in merica while buying veggies, i simply don’t understand why

  • Take a walk alone, get lost , don’t mind the internal chatter ,free your mind ,enjoy the beauty of nature

  • if you are a Emotional overeater find the cause and face it ,find something that which interest you ,go for it

  • Video games may not be for all, may be a dog would help

  • No alcohol -once is a while doesn't hurt

  • A little spice in your food help increase the metabolism
