With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years. But nobody thinks about the economics of the issue. How many people are we going to save by spending this $1.4 billion, even assuming it works?To answer that question, let's look at the food illness fatality figures offered by the CDC:• Out of the 5,000 food-borne illness deaths each year in the United States, only 1,809 are "attributable to foodborne transmission" according to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol5no5/mead.htm#Table%203).• E.coli, which is often quoted in the big scare stories about food safety, only kills 78 people a year through food-borne transmission (52 plus 26, fro...

Help Protect Federal Spending on Rare Diseases like Duchenne :: PPMD Taking Action to Avert Sequestration



Those engaged in federal advocacy probably thought the Prescription Drug User Fee Act and its acronym PDUFA would take the cake in terms of policy jargon. But as the nation's eyes are fixed on Washington to see whether or not the nation will careen over the "fiscal cliff," the term sequester and sequestration is invading the American lexicon.

According to Webster, sequester traces its roots to the 14th Century and is derived from the Latin "sequestrare" which means "to hand over to a trustee." After centuries of obscurity, the term gained new prominence beginning in the summer of 2011, when Congress reached a deal to increase the nation's debt that forced a set of across-the-board spending cuts – or a sequester of such funds – if a committe...

Fixing the economy, with Science! :: Former Apprentice candidate Katie Hopkins has offered solutions to the problems with the NHS. So it's only fair that someone with biomedical science knowledge offers solutions for how to fix the problems with the economy.SpotOn London 2012 took place recently. For those unaware, it's a conference focussing on "how science is carried out and communicated online". Many interesting points were brought up during it, one of which was the issue of self-promotion. The extent to which you should self-promote, and how people will react to this, resulted in a number of interesting discussions. Athene Donald, on her excellent blog, and my friend the lovely Della Thomas responded to this interesting debate in the classic scientist way by attempting to generate some data about it.

Hallucinations by Oliver Sacks - review :: Oliver Sacks's own drug experiences are at the centre of a remarkable study. By Will SelfIn undertaking this wide-ranging, compassionate and ultimately revelatory survey of the strange terrain of humans' delusional capability, Oliver Sacks says he has been inspired by William James's example – in The Varieties of Religious Experience and elsewhere – to create a sort of "natural history or anthology" of the hallucinatory. "My own favourite definition" of an hallucination, Sacks writes in one of his characteristically compendious footnotes, "is that given by William James in his 1890 Principles of Psychology: 'An hallucination is a strictly sensational form of consciousness, as good and true a sensation as if there were a real object there. The object happens not to be there, that is all...

Area: News
According to research on the cost of cancer to the UK economy conducted by a team from Oxford University and presented at the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Cancer Conference, the cost of lung cancer is £2.4 billion each year, far higher than the cost of any other cancer. The researchers say these findings highlight the urgent need to continue to reduce the number of young people who become addicted to tobacco as smoking causes more than 8 in 10 lung cancers in the UK.

Obama's data geeks add up to four more years :: Mastery of the numbers game meant the president's team was able to exploit its database more effectively than Romney, reeling in £1bn in donationsSome years ago I went to a lecture given by Professor David MacKay, who in addition to being a distinguished physicist (he's professor of natural philosophy at Cambridge) is also the chief scientific officer of the Department of Energy and Climate Change. He was talking about his book, Sustainable Energy Without the Hot Air, in which he subjects the case for wind power to some searching criticism. In the Q&A after the lecture a member of the audience asked him why he was so hostile to wind power. "I'm not hostile to wind power," he replied. "I'm just pro-arithmetic."It was a terrific riposte and it made the audience laugh. But actually it captur...
