☆ US scientists are leaving academia. That’s bad news for drug companies

“Science postdocs perform the science,” Donna Ginther, an economist who studies the science labor market at the University of Kansas, told CNN. Biomedical companies take scientific contributions and, over time, aggregate them into a commercial product. Building on the discovery of mRNA in the 1960’s, the technology behind an mRNA vaccine for humans was in development for decades before the Covid-19 vaccine was first administered in 2020. By using that technology to develop their mRNA vaccines for Covid-19, pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer and Moderna made a windfall in profits. “That’s how they make money is through commercialization: they have a product, which they then patent and sell.”Why are scientists leaving academic labs?

☆ The Biggest Issue on Americans’ Minds Is Also a Tough One to Agree On

Americans have argued about immigration for decades, often with anger, fear and racial resentment. Decades of neglect and political stalemate have left the American immigration system broken in ways that defy simple solutions. Many are settling in cities far from the border, making an abstract problem suddenly concrete for some Americans. And there was little hope that President Biden might figure out a way out of the morass. Notably, the solutions voters proposed didn’t fit neatly into either party’s ideological box.

Why the CMA blocked the Microsoft-Activision dealThe U.K. CMA efficiently blocked the acquisition in April, saying the deal raises competition concerns in the nascent cloud gaming market. Like other regulators, the CMA is concerned that Microsoft could take Activision games and make them exclusive to its own platforms. Cloud gaming is a technology that enables gamers to access games via remote servers — effectively streaming a game like you would a movie on Netflix. The CMA, Microsoft and Activision now look set to hash out a possible resolution to the regulator's concerns to get a deal over the line. watch nowMicrosoft has already offered concessions to the U.K. regulator which were rejected.

☆ Outgoing CDC director says the US is not prepared for the next pandemic because parts of the public health system still use 'old fax machines'

The US isn't prepared for the next pandemic, the outgoing CDC director wrote in a New York Times op-ed. This is partly because local public health systems are still using outdated, unreliable technology. "Some of our public health data systems‌‌ are reliant on old fax machines," Dr. Rochelle Walensky wrote. She concluded with a call for support from the public and US lawmakers in improving public health infrastructure. "It is not enough to support public health when there is an emergency," Walensky wrote.

☆ An all-female lizard species that reproduces asexually stress-eats to cope with the deafening racket of jets at a nearby military base

Noise pollution from aircraft flyovers at Fort Carson in Colorado piqued the reptiles' anxiety. The rare, all-female species, which reproduce asexually, live exclusively in Colorado and boast long, thin tails, giving them their name. Researchers zeroed in on a collection of the reptiles located near Colorado Springs at the Fort Carson US military installation. A Javelin missile fired by soldiers with the 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team heads toward a target during a live-fire training exercise on April 28, 2022 in Fort Carson, Colorado. "Behavioral responses to noise pollution often translate into stress responses, as loud noises increase cortisol levels in several species," the study authors wrote.
☆ Consumers keep spending. That might not be good news for them or the Fed

And by November and December, those predictions appeared to be materializing, when data showed consumers had pulled back during the holiday shopping season. During a month chock full of suprisingly strong economic data, the Commerce Department’s retail sales and consumer spending reports far surpassed expectations. “It’s not sustainable to keep spending above their means.”Eyes on the FedHearty consumer spending at a time like this is a double-edged sword, said Ted Rossman, senior industry analyst for Bankrate and CreditCards.com. “The resilience of consumer spending is probably the biggest thing that’s pushed this recession timetable out,” Rossman said. The Home Depot (HD) warned of flat sales for 2023 as consumers continue shift spending from goods to services.

Mandatory Credit: Michael Ciaglo-USA TODAY SportsFeb 13 (Reuters) - Americans Madison Chock and Evan Bates won their third Four Continents ice dance title in Colorado on Sunday after setting both free dance and overall career-best scores to edge Canadian pair Laurence Fournier Beaudry and Nikolaj Sorensen. Performing to 'Souffrance' and 'Les Tectoniques', Chock and Bates, who led after the short programme on Friday, earned 133.14 points in the free dance to take their total to 220.81. Chock and Bates also won the 2019 and 2020 titles in the competition, which features skates from outside of Europe. The veteran pair, who won world championships bronze last year, underlined their status as favourites for next month's event in Saitama, Japan. "This competition sets us up really well for the world championships and for our goal of winning worlds," Bates said.

In late 2021, a wildfire tore through the Boulder suburbs and destroyed nearly 1,100 homes. Roughly 10 months after that blaze, known as the Marshall Fire, the vast majority of the burned lots remain vacant. "Open space with the ability to build what you want — that really doesn't exist in Boulder County," Jennifer Eiss, a Boulder real-estate agent with Compass, said. The median sale price for Marshall Fire lots that sold in the third quarter was $416,000, according to MLS data. Newer, more-sustainable building methods, combined with an emphasis on protective borders around homes, could help mitigate fire risks, Pechet said.

Latinos were 31 percent of the state’s high school graduates that year. But at 31%, the six-year graduation rate for MSU’s Latino students lags far behind CU Boulder, where it was 63 %.

Vela and three other CU Boulder students who spoke with NBC News first learned about the campus through the Aquetza program.

By historical standards, Gen X should be in charge of the US by now. Think of them as the godparents of the "Xennials" — those born in the late 1970s or early 1980s who aren't fully Gen X or millennial. No matter whether you deny the 61-year-old Obama is a boomer, Gen X is starting to get up there in age. Michael Ciaglo-Pool/Getty ImagesWhat's the US missing without a Gen X president?

CNN —It’s enough to give anyone already on edge about how to handle possible flight delays and cancellations yet another reason to pop an antacid or two: the prospect of delayed, lost or damaged baggage. There are things you can do and strategies you can take to help avoid losing a bag or at least minimize the impact of delayed, lost, stolen and damaged luggage. “Many times, airline personnel will explain that the luggage has been located but will be delayed until the next flight,” Travelers United says. Liability limits: There’s fine print, exceptions and paperwork / documentation hurdles, but you can eventually get cash for your lost bags. Damaged bags: If you see your luggage is damaged while still at the airport, report it there.
