Heart Breaking Harford's Economic conditions "Hartford and America" by SchiffGold

Hartford and America: Suffering the "Consequences of Political Malfeasance"
  by
Peter Schiff, the gold and silver guru writes about the worsening economic conditions of Hartford, the capital of the state of Connecticut.
Hartford was going through budget and spending crisis for more than a decade, ultimately reaching a level where nations two rating agencies S&P and Moody's downgrading Hartford Economic condition to a Junk status, and the city might default on its obligations may further lead to bankruptcy as early as November. Schiff's piece came up just two days ago, but several days earlier, the WSJ published a report on the ratings on Sept28
WSJ: Hartford Downgraded Further Into Junk Status  
Moves by S&P and Moody’s cites increased likelihood of default as early as November
By Joseph De Avila
Two credit-ratings firms on Tuesday downgraded the city of Hartford further into junk status, citing an increased likelihood of default as early as November.
Schiff digs further into how did the city of Hartford reached this stage, further expanding the understanding that not only city of Hartford, but the once wealthiest state of CT, the state as a whole is in trouble too, owning 3.5Billion debt and close to 70Billion in pension liabilities etc?... It does not look for the city or state economically and otherwise, what about other cities and states nationwide, read the piece here.....LINK

CURE & YALE University: Yale BioHaven Enterprenurship





Tuesday, February 12, 2008
Rib-X Pharmaceuticals, Inc.



Followed by networking, refreshments & wine bar

Rib-X Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is focused on the design and development of novel small-molecule antibiotics for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant infections in hospital and community settings. Since its inception in 2001, Rib-X has established a portfolio of development and discovery-stage compounds that address various segments in the diverse antibiotic marketplace, including RX-3341, a broad spectrum quinolone antibiotic which will soon enter Phase 3 studies as an IV agent and RX-1741, an oxazolidinone antibiotic now in two Phase 2 studies as an oral agent.

Many classical antibiotics work by inhibiting the function of the ribosome. A key competitive advantage for Rib-X is its proprietary access to the high-resolution crystal structure of the ribosome, a molecule which is essential for the viability of all bacterial pathogens and the target of numerous valuable antibiotics.

Rib-X's research goal is to use chemical and physical information from the three-dimensional structure of the ribosome to design proprietary classes of antibacterial agents that have activity against newly emerging multiple antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. Structural and computational data about how ligands block the function of this complex molecular machine are being used to prime parallel lead optimization programs focused on new chemistry ideas about the multiple binding domains or drug targets within the ribosome.

The scope of the Rib-X structure based design process will enable the Company to fully exploit the chemistry of the ribosome and build a pipeline of diverse products and as a result a sustainable franchise. Rib-X raised $50 million in a Series C Preferred Stock financing announced in June of 2006. The round was led by existing investor Warburg Pincus, the global private equity investment firm. That round of financing brought the total amount raised by the company to $123 million.

Speakers

Susan Froshauer, Ph.D.

President & Chief Executive Officer, Rib-X Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Erin Duffy, Ph.D.

Vice President, Structure Based Drug Design, Rib-X Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

STEM CELL IN CONNECTICUT-Uconn Health Center, THE CENTER OF STEM CELL RESEARCH


CONNECTICUT HEALTH CENTER, FARMINGTON & IT'S TOP CLASS RESEARCH!
IN his laboratory here at the University of Connecticut Health Center, Dr. David W. Rowe looked at two X-rays that appeared too good to be true. The first showed a mouse that had part of a tibia removed to simulate an injury so severe as to require amputation. In the next, the mouse’s leg had regrown fully

NewHavener's do say "Our City of New Haven does sleep!!?". New Haven is a constantly growing and quite active city of mixed cultures. The location of green in the midst of downtown, restaurants, beautiful church buildings, sky scrappers and the breathtakingly beautiful Yale buildings provide the special charm to the city of New Haven, in fact, Yale dignifies and signifies the city of New Haven, formed during 1666, one of the oldest city and county, she has 30towns under her county belly.
