So the technology was used to make a cigarette that was easier to inhale and contain substances that were more dangerous. Whether they contain more substances or more dangerous or they allowed a smoker to inhale them more deeply than they previously were inclined to do because of the cigarettes were harsher. Again what were viewing, what were seeing in terms of the numbers is very large increases in the risk of lung cancer. Larger in women than in men. But very large at least the way cigarettes are being used in smoke in the United States have become more dangerous and not less dangerous. Mr. Zeller, five years since we passed the family smoking prevention Tobacco Control act. Again its really a historic achievement. Public health i know theres been some delays in implementing some provisions. I also recognize and thanks to the ability of the fda to regulate these products, strides has been made during that time. The center for Tobacco Products has been key. Thats whos charged with thi
A maze on her menu without lifting the crayon off the paper. She accomplished this feat by beginning at the finish line of the maze and ending at the start. My child,s watching she was playing out the old management begin with the end in mind. Our reported order begins with the end in mind. The chairman and his hardcharging auction team have focused on the finish line. Freeing up more spectrum for mobile broadband, providing more opportunities for broadcasters, and raising funds to support our First Responders. I am also pleased that the report in order is largely faithful to the Central Building blocks to a successful incentive auction. Simplicity, fairness, balance, and Public Safety. Simplicity is key. Incentive auctions are an undeniably complex undertaking. At every structural juncture, i believe a bias towards simplicity is crucial. I am pleased that we choose simplicity with the dissenting clock auction rules we adopt today. Design provides a simple onramp to the auction and all
There still some lingering distrust left over from the housing crisis that hasnt been fully dealt with yet so i think that is what everybody is concerned about along with the somewhat anemic Economic Growth that people are concerned that this housing recovery is not for real or its not as good as it appears to be. So we look at home prices had a very big jump in many areas in and home prices in 2013 but we are starting to see those numbers come down in many markets across the country. Foreclosures which we track are down to nearly prerecession levels. Actually we came out with the april numbers yesterday. There were 115,000 properties with foreclosure filings in the month of april. Thats down from a peak of over 367,000 in march of 2010 and we are almost back before the recession we were seeing about 85,000 foreclosure filings a month so we are getting closer to that level. That negative piece is largely gone from the market. Housing prices are going up but there is what i call a hole
Pills when they needed one or two, so in the kind of takes us to the question that you are asking about medical education. If we want dentists to give one or two pills instead of 30, if we want doctors to recognize that these are not good treatments for headache and fibromyalgia and low back pain. They need very good information on that. Both of the education on this topic right now is not teaching doctors that using these medicines long term is a bad idea. The cdc has put out Educational Programs out there. The bulk of the education is really telling doctors when you follow certain rules when you prescribe, it will turn out rowsy in the end. If you check a urine, somehow the patient wont wind up addicted. Close monitoring is the thing to do for people on this treatment. It doesnt turn it into something thats safe. These strategies dont prevent addiction. These are not good treatments for most people with chronic pain. Okay. Do you think we should mandate the states to mandate that med

Several members of Congress Acting in good faith that a just our longterm issue. We applaud them for their efforts. I know there will be more discussion in town this week on those attempts. Others are suggesting that the political realities will have to settle for an infusion of cash into the trust fund as a stopgap measure. It used to be there were ways to do it. Tighter now than it was. In may be true that you can get an infusion. It is hardly the longterm solution we need. Every few years we wake up and abouthe same conversation theing,
