3 Drugs for the Immediate Future

Money Shot

OK. We don't need to go into great detail about how we wroite a bunch of articles praising a $0.35 stock called Cambridge Heart (CAMH) which has since rose more than 1000% and then dropped a bit to %2.60+. And we do not need to remind all of you that we predicted the study outcomes regarding many of the late-breaking trials at last year's American College of Cardiology conference. We should not need to do any of that since we have a new company to discuss with you: Javelin Pharamaceuticals (JAV).

Leave Us A-Clone

After months of debate and review, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will soon rule that food from cloned animals is as safe to eat as food from conventionally raised ones.

Sweet cloned meat! The food police have confidently stated that eating meat and milk from cloned adult cattle, pigs, goats and their genetically identical offspring is as safe as eating those products from animals whose DNA is slightly different.

Sheep were left out of the FDA report due to lack of evidence and when reached for comment, Dolly the Sheep, was quoted as saying "baaaaa." She's a sheep, dudes.

Nurses Suing Over Greasy Moon

You gotta love the Heart Attack Grill in Phoenix, AZ, a theme-based restaurant that asks the question: "Are you man enough for the Triple Bypass Burger (that's 3 beef patties, 3 slices of cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato, many strips of bacon and "special sauce". They should throw in an aspirin and a Lipitor if they want their customers coming back mroe than twice. The coronary-clogging eatery also sells Flatliner Fries and cigarettes, boasting that they're worth dying for - but none of these things are what's getting them media attention or pending lawsuits....

Interview with "The Todd"

As we struggle up the proverbial mountain our M.D., an occasional reminder of why we subject ourselves to the late nights of studying and early mornings of pimping can make an enormous impact. But from where and from who shall this inspiration come? A role model of sorts; a mentor, one might say. A physician who transcends the mundane and reminds us of why we signed up for this in the first place: A doctor that refers to himself in the third person – “The Todd”. Straight from the set of Scrubs, StopPagingMe.com has brought you Robert Maschio, the actor behind the sex-obsessed, high-fiving, bikini-wearing surgical resident on NBC’s Emmy-nominated sitcom.

Are Obese Patients Getting the Best Care? Fat Chance

Louisiana Lunacy

NEW ORLEANS - Dr. Anna Pou, a head and neck cancer specialist and associate professor of otolaryngology, along with two nurses, were arrested by the Louisiana attorney general's office in connection with the deaths of patients at a New Orleans hospital in the days following Hurricane Katrina. No word yet on whether President Bush or the ex-FEMA Chief will be named as accomplices.

Getting the Fellowship You Want

Part II: Beating the Crowd

You have read Part I of our series and so you've now chosen your field (Part I, click here). Congratulations on choosing your specialty, or sub-specialty as the case may be. It’s not easy and you may not be 100% sure about it but the reality was best described by my wise Jewish grandma: “You love what you know, and your grandfather knew coffee.” That holds true for you as well, except the coffee part (maybe). Once you commit yourself and begin the process of becoming a maven in that field, you will love it – and if you can’t get past it then suck it up and know your stuff anywa because there's plenty of competition out there.

Pujols and Sheffield

Two big sluggers, Pujols and Sheffield, are on the DL and if I were you I would wanna know for how long? Who can you ask to find out? How about an orthopaedic surgeon who sees these injuries every day? Or, perhaps a guy that has won almost every fantasy league he has ever entered? Luckily, we have access to both.

The Boner dishes the medical dirt on Albert Pujols who was just put on the 15-day DL. He tells us whether this seemingly minor injury will have major repurcussions and what to do if the trade sharks start circling. Our fantasy basesball guru also drops a bomb about Sheffield.
