“What a Bustle there is to be made in several Parts of the World, before a Fine Scarlet or
Crimson Cloth can be produced, what a multiplicity of Trades and Artificers must be
employ’d! Not only such as are obvious, as Woolcombers, Spinners, the Weaver, the
Clothworker, the Scowrer, the Dier, the Setter, the Drawer and the Packer; but others that are
more remote and might seem Foreign to it; as the Millwright, the Pewterer and the Chymist,
which yet are all necessary as well as a great Number of other Handicrafts to have the Tools,
Utensils and other Implements belonging to the Trades already named.”

THE BUZZ – Karen Anderson of Orinda, Calif., wore a name tag identifying her as the Widow MacNamara from "The Valley of Fear." (Her California club takes its name, the Scowrers and the Molly Maguires, from that novella.) Her husband, Poul Anderson, the science fiction writer, said he often returned to the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Of his own writing, he said, "Oh, every once in a while, I smuggle in a reference."

(The Ayn Rand Lexicon, p. 69)

In 1992, hopes were high that the human genome project heralded an era abundant in new, targeted medicines. However, since that time, the number of new chemical entities (NCEs) launched has declined by 30 per cent, while pharmaceutical R&D expenditure has grown by 20 per cent each year.

New drugs to treat and cure sick patients are coming into the market in the United States at the slowest rate in a decade, despite billions invested by pharmaceutical companies on research and a costly expansion by the federal agency that reviews new medicines.
