Watching Presidential Debates at Home is SO 2008

Whether you swing blue, red, or are still making up your mind, there are several places for you to gather tomorrow night to watch the first of three presidential debates.

Join Patch for a presidential debate viewing party on Wednesday, Oct. 3, at 5:30 p.m. at 5th Quarter Pizza at 976 Woodside Road. 

Domestic policy will be the focus of the first presidential debate—Democrat Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney will have two more later in October—and Patch wants to know what issues are important to small business owners and local community members.

All—Republicans, Democrats, independents and anyone on any end of the political spectrum—are invited. Those interested in attending should RSVP by emailing Stacie Chan at stacie@patch.com.

You also can RSVP, and invite your friends to come along, on our Facebook event announcement.

While electing a president is serious business, there will be some fun, too. Patch will have pizza, drinks and Patch swag to give out. 

So come out and join us on Wednesday, Oct. 3, at 5:30 p.m. at 5th Quarter Pizza at 976 Woodside Road.

I can start with the comments on the Theravance drug, fluticasone fluroate - the active moiety inRead More this compound is the same, fluticasone (proprionate) that has been marketed by GSK for the same indication for approximately 25 years. Indeed, that patent is so old, and the drug has such a proven track record for safety and efficacy, that the patent has expired and there are generic versions available. There is also in implicit assumption by the author that the only reason that the FDA will approve medications in a short time span is because they are for 'life-or-limb' or unmet serious medical need. This is just not the case - regulators in many countries, including the FDA in the USA, may give accelerated approval to a product, where the safety and tolerability of a product is equivalent to a similar active agent which has already been approved. I suspect this is the case for fluticasone fluroate - but I am not privy to the details of the regulatory filing. I note that none of the companies mentioned here, nor the FDA, has provided input to this article. The journalism in this article smacks of someone trying to make a name for themselves quickly by scaring uneducated and/or anxious people. The science is just plain flawed.

Please tell us in what ways it is ill-informed

Ill-informed, sensationalist rubbish.

Each column gets better. I look for "The Shoe."

I think many of us can relate! 10 kids, huh? I was the oldest of 9, so sort of understand. MyRead More family grew up in Pacifica, & we rode over the slide every weekend when we went to the HMB airport to tend to my father's airplanes. I drove on it once, during driver's ed in high school, scary! I have an old home movie clip from 1966, going over the slide. Very overexposed, but you can still see parts of the slide in it. More recently, took 2 videos of our drive over the slide, North & south views. Going North: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb8NKnu9Gvw Going South: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rlN_g2LeE8
