| FDA to let women try new breast drugs earlier Posted: 03 Jun 2012 09:00 AM PDT CHICAGO (Reuters) - Regulators are moving the goal posts in testing new drugs for breast cancer in the hopes of giving more women with aggressive, early-stage cancers the chance to try breakthrough drugs while they have the best shot at a cure. A new guidance document issued this week by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will allow drug companies to test their medications for a few months on women with highly aggressive breast cancers before they have surgery, instead of waiting until the drug has been proven first in gravely ill patients. ... |
| Exclusive: SEC investigator previously pushed to carry gun Posted: 03 Jun 2012 01:45 PM PDT WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The lead internal investigator at the Securities and Exchange Commission, who is on leave after employees complained he wanted to carry a gun at work, previously tried to get a gun permit when he worked for another government agency, but the permit was denied. David Weber, the assistant inspector general of investigations at the SEC, applied more than two years ago with the Maryland State Police to carry a concealed weapon while he worked as a special counsel of enforcement at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. ... |
| Tesoro Martinez Refinery workers to vote on contract: union Posted: 03 Jun 2012 12:51 PM PDT HOUSTON (Reuters) - Hourly workers at independent western U.S. refiner Tesoro Corp's largest refinery are scheduled to vote on Wednesday on a contract proposal reached after three days of talks between the company, the United Steelworkers union (USW) and a federal mediator aimed at averting a strike, a union spokeswoman said. Members of USW local 5 have already authorized a strike by workers at Tesoro's 166,000 barrel per day (bpd) San Francisco Bay area refinery in Martinez, California, if a new contract is not ratified by its 170 members. ... |
| Looming court ruling worries some with health woes Posted: 03 Jun 2012 07:27 AM PDT WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Texan Sam Lovett had no health insurance in August 2010 when an emergency hospital stay brought the news from his doctors that his liver was failing and he could die within less than a year without a transplant. The small distribution center where he worked did not provide health insurance. Lovett, 43, who lives near Comfort, Texas, was not able to buy private coverage on his own because of his already bad health. Though he had the resources to cover routine medical bills, he now needed a $400,000 organ transplant and no doctor or clinic would take him without insurance. ... |

| Tornadoes, heavy rains leave U.S. mid-Atlantic battered Posted: 02 Jun 2012 10:13 PM PDT (Reuters) - High winds, heavy rains and six tornadoes have descended on the mid-Atlantic region, causing at least one serious injury but no deaths and damaging homes, businesses and boats, officials said on Saturday. The violent storms that struck Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia on Friday collapsed a fabric dome near Pittsburgh, stranded motorists on flooded roads, and ruined homes and boats. The National Weather Service said in a post on Twitter late on Saturday that six tornadoes had been confirmed as part of the weather outbreak. No other details were immediately available. ... |
