Fox News: 'Muppets' Trying To Brainwash Your Children!
This may come as a bit of a shock, but it's only right for you to know that you've been "indoctrinated" by the Muppets. Yes, as much as Jim Henson's crew of cuddly misfits might have appeared to want nothing more than to teach children how to count on "Sesame Street" or to make them [...]

Pfizer cancer drug effect may be limited: FDA staff (Reuters)
(Reuters) ? Slower tumor growth in kidney cancer patients taking Pfizer Inc's experimental drug, Inlyta, in a clinical trial was driven by a subset of patients who are rare in the United States, U.S. Food and Drug Administration researchers said.
In review documents released on Monday ahead of an expert advisory panel meeting on the drug, FDA staff expressed concern the Pfizer medicine appeared to work better in patients previously treated by cytokines that are rarely used in the United States, potentially limiting its appeal in the world's largest market.
U.S. kidney cancer patients are far more likely to be given Pfizer's Sutent as an initial treatment option rather than cytokines.
The FDA documents found the safety profile of Inlyta, clinically known as axitinib, to be similar to rival drugs. However, interim analysis of Pfizer's pivotal trial showed more overall deaths and more deaths related to treatment in patients who received Inlyta compared with those who took Nexavar, which is sold by Bayer AG and Onyx Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Inlyta, which inhibits certain receptors that can influence tumor growth and progression of cancer, is one of several new drugs Pfizer is banking on to help replace lost revenue from its top-selling cholesterol fighter, Lipitor, which began facing generic competition last week.
FDA staff said Pfizer's kidney cancer drug showed the same degree of liver enzyme elevation and potential for liver failure as some other drugs in its class, but had lower rates of skin related side effects and anemia than Nexavar.
About 61,000 Americans will be diagnosed with kidney cancer this year and one in five of them are expected to die from the disease, according to the American Cancer Society. Most often, this cancer occurs in people over 55 years old.
The drug is awaiting an approval decision in Europe for use in patients who failed to be helped by prior treatment.
In November 2010, Pfizer released results of a study showing axitinib significantly delayed the time before the disease progressed compared with Nexavar in previously treated patients with advanced kidney cancer.
The trial also found the Pfizer drug delayed progression of the disease by some 5.6 months in patients previously treated with cytokines, but only by 1.4 months in those initially treated with Sutent, known chemically as sunitinib.
A panel of FDA advisers will consider whether the discrepancy affects Inlyta's risk-benefit ratio.
The drug is also being tested in another late-stage trial for kidney cancer as both an initial treatment option and in previously treated patients. It is also being tested as a treatment for liver cancer.

Official: 13 hurt when fans storm Okla. St. field (AP)
STILLWATER, Okla. ? Thousands of fans stormed the field and tore down goalposts after Oklahoma State's 44-10 victory over archrival Oklahoma, leaving at least 13 people injured, including two in critical condition, medical authorities said early Sunday.
Michael Authement, who heads the command post at emergency medical provider LifeNet EMS, told The Associated Press that a throng so big took to the field as the game ended that some fans were trampled and one person fell at least 15 feet onto concrete during a wild celebration by Oklahoma State fans.
No. 13 Oklahoma State routed the Sooners on Saturday night to win the Big 12 championship and make its case to play for the BCS national title. The Cowboys (11-1, 8-1 Big 12) snapped an eight-game losing streak in the rivalry and won their first outright conference title since 1948 in the three-team Missouri Valley.
"They won the game and stormed the field and ripped down the goalposts and some were jumping off the stands and hit the field and others got trampled. It was a nasty deal," Authement said.
He said the crowd was so big it took police at least 45 minutes to clear fans from the field at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater. "There were thousands of people. Thousands of people stormed the field. You couldn't move there were so many people," he added.
AP photographs showed fans climbing atop the yellow goalposts and tearing them apart amid a crush of people on the field. Scores of hands stretched out to pull down the goalposts during the celebration.
Authement said nine ambulances, including six from LifeNet, rushed 11 of the injured away and the two in critical condition were flown to Oklahoma City hospitals. He said he knew of leg fractures but didn't have any details on the extent of the injuries, though two of the 13 had minor injuries and were treated at the scene and released.
Lesser injuries included broken ankles, ankle sprains and back sprains, said Shyla Eggers, public relations director for Stillwater Medical Center, adding eight injured came to her hospital. She told AP that her hospital received six of the injured in ambulances, two in private vehicles and at least two of the patients have been admitted and would undergo surgery on broken ankles.
"Our staff that was on hand took care of it. They were just very busy," Eggers said. "Game day is always busy."
She had no immediate details on the more serious injuries, saying two people were flown from the scene to hospitals in other cities in Oklahoma.
An Oklahoma State University police central dispatcher said she had no immediate details to release when contacted by AP and the public information officer did not immediately return messages seeking comment. Stillwater police and the Oklahoma highway patrol also had no immediate comment.
Authement said the fans began storming the field with about 20 seconds left in the game. He said he had reports of people falling and being trampled in the surge. "It lasted 45 minutes, I'm sure before they got the field cleared," he said.
He said he was handling game night duty when a magnitude-5.6 earthquake rocked central Oklahoma and the same stadium as fans departed minutes after Oklahoma State had beaten Kansas State. The Nov. 5 temblor, which could be felt as far away as Wisconsin, was the strongest in the state's history when it rattled players in the locker room and set the stadium press box rippling as the last of some 58,000 fans cleared out.
"This was way worse than the earthquake," Authement said.

Ljubljana mayor ahead in Slovenia election upset (Reuters)
LJUBLJANA (Reuters) ? The centre-left mayor of Slovenia's capital Ljubljana was headed for victory in a parliamentary election on Sunday, early results showed, making the outgoing Social Democrats the latest casualties of the euro zone economic crisis.
The defeat for Prime Minister Borut Pahor was expected, but the victory for Ljubljana Mayor Zoran Jankovic, if confirmed, would mark an upset after weeks of opinion polls predicting a comfortable win for centre-right ex-prime minister Janez Jansa.
With nearly a third of votes counted, Jankovic's party was leading with 29.5 percent of the vote over Jansa's party with 25.9 percent and Pahor's party with less than 10.3 percent.
Jankovic will have to seek coalition partners, and Pahor said his party was ready to talk.
"We are open for dialogue," the outgoing prime minister told Pop Television. "We have to think of the future of this country."
An Alpine state of 2 million people, EU and euro zone member Slovenia was once a model of successful post-communist transition but is now facing renewed economic contraction, rising unemployment and the threat of a credit rating downgrade.
Pahor's government lost its majority in May amid internal policy squabbles and was ousted by parliament in September.

Suit: School's HIV denial violates teen's rights (AP)
PHILADELPHIA ? A Philadelphia-area teen says he was denied admission to the private boarding school supported by the Hershey chocolate company because he's HIV-positive.
A discrimination suit filed Wednesday claims the Milton Hershey School violated anti-discrimination laws in denying the 13-year-old's request for admission to the school for disadvantaged students.
The AIDS Law Project of Pennsylvania filed the lawsuit for the unidentified boy. Attorney Ronda Goldfein says her client requires no special accommodations.
In a statement released to WCAU-TV, school officials acknowledge the boy was denied admission for safety reasons. The school says it must protect the safety of the other 1,850 students already enrolled.
Founded in 1909 by chocolate maker Milton Hershey, the school educates low-income and socially disadvantaged students for free with the support of The Hershey Co.

Iran diplomats return from UK to heroes' welcome (Reuters)
TEHRAN (Reuters) -Iranian diplomats expelled from Britain after radical youths stormed the British embassy in Tehran arrived home on Saturday to supporters bearing flowers and chanting "Death to England."
"Spy embassy closed for good," read one of the many placards carried by the crowd of some 100 men and women, most of whom appeared to be members of the hardline Basij militia, congregated at Imam Khomeini Airport.
Britain evacuated all diplomatic staff and closed its embassy in Tehran after it was stormed and ransacked on Tuesday. France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands withdrew their ambassadors from Tehran in protest.
With swift condemnation from around the world, the embassy storming risks further isolating Iran which is already under several rounds of sanctions over the nuclear program that many countries fear is aimed at developing atomic bombs, a charge Tehran denies.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has yet to comment on the incident, an indication, some analysts say, that it was organized by rival hardliners within the faction-riven establishment.
Iran's Foreign Ministry has expressed regret over the embassy invasion, which it said was a spontaneous overflowing of anger during a student protest. Britain says there must have been at least tacit approval by the ruling establishment.
Speaking to reporters at the airport, Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast warned Britain's European Union partners not to allow the diplomatic row to worsen their own ties with the Islamic Republic.
"The British government is trying to extend to other European countries the problem between the two of us, but of course we have told European countries not to subject their ties with us with the kind of problems that existed between Iran and Britain," he was quoted as saying by the Fars news agency.
