Defenders office smog. And a new president is elected in burkina faso. U. S. President barack obama has said its time to bring the war in syria to an end.

Them harder. I think we would welcome legislation to reform that area. But if we come in a blunt instrument, suddenly recreating the fda authorities or mandating things on the fda or looking for the department of health and Human Services to do things that theyre not equipped to do and then, of course, we dont fund them to do it, i think we have to be cautious about some of the legislation that may be proposed. More than anything we want government to be there to work collaboratively but we still have to recognize the safety and efficacy that American People and most people here would certainly think is necessary for a new product. We want those products out as quickly as possible. I remember the days when we had the first evidence of the aids epidemic and the people that brought home the reform and fda to get some of these therapies out quickly were the act up groups of the gay community. They studied the law of fda and argued you dont need to take so long. You dont have to wait till
