There is one strategy, however, that is likely to make things worse; overriding patents on drugs developed with the help of federally funded research. This so-called “march in” option is not a good idea. It hinges on the Bayh-Dole Act, a 40-year-old law that revolutionized scientific research in the United States. A provision within the law permits the federal government to “march in” and seize intellectual property that benefited from federal grants if that IP is not being made available to the public....

One of the things that really bothered people was how nonchalant Matt was about coming home. Amber had spent hours crying and even sifted through his drawers while he was out. There are already some people who suspect Matt might be cheating. And if he’s not cheating, others accused him of hiding a secret or being on the show for the wrong reasons. While cheating allegations might sound outlandish or cruel, they don’t come from nowhere....

Fans of BioWare’s science fiction epic have every reason to have grown attached to one or more of the cast, considering the amount of time that’s gone into developing compelling backstory and chcaracter development. Garrus Vakarian and Tali’Zorah vas Normandy alone have grown and evolved a great deal from just the first game to the second, and with both confirmed to be squad members for Mass Effect 3 - provided they survived - fans can now move on to wondering about other secondary characters....

Included with Mass Effect 3 Wii U will be the widely criticized add-on, From Ashes. From Ashes received sizable fan backlash when it was revealed that it would be sold as day one DLC. Many felt cheated, as the $9.99 add-on content was not only painfully short but also centered around the fabled Prothean species - an integral component of the series’ lore. In the end, From Ashes failed to compare to past BioWare DLC offerings, ultimately eliciting less-than-favorable reviews (including our own)....

Mbappe 20/1 to be CL top scorer The 18-year-old striker, who was then with Monaco, was heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid, though it was Paris Saint-Germain who eventually won the race for his signature, signing him on a one-year loan deal that included a compulsory purchase option that could see him cost up to €180 million. Barca, however, could have had him for cheaper if they had not pursued Mbappe’s international team-mate Ousmane Dembele quite so extensively....

KKR skipper Gautam Gambhir however didn’t commit to McCullum’s presence in the XI for the next match. He said, “He’s (McCullum) fit and raring to go. It’s always good to have options under your sleeves but we’ll go with the 11 player who we think can do the job for us tomorrow.” He believes that one loss in the beginning won’t affect their IPL campaign much in a long tournament like this, “I don’t believe in momentum, I only believe in playing good cricket....

If there’s one thing that’s quickly approaching zombie-levels of saturation, it’s the recent trend of early access through crowdfunding. More and more games are beginning to adopt this method of funding despite the inherent risks and shaky reputation. Hoping to stand out from the growing crowd, MechWarrior Online developer Piranha Games has revealed their new project: a sci-fi MMO by the name of Transverse. Taking place in the furthest reaches of space - the Fringe - Transverse depicts a future in which humanity has developed to the point of self-modification in the form of synthetic bodies and technological augmentation....

Big Pixel Studios, known for their work on mobile games, recently decided to try their hand at developing a game for PC and console. That game, known as Mega Coin Squad, recently released on Xbox One. Mega Coin Squad, like many recent indie titles, pays homage to the fast-paced 2D arcade games of yesteryear by providing a simple, yet challenging experience for players. And while Mega Coin Squad is easy enough to learn, and provides a few minutes of adrenaline-inducing excitement, the lack of an online multiplayer option keeps it from reaching its true potential, leaving it as party game that provides an enjoyable escape from the more advanced titles currently available....

Salah’s playing style has been compared to Messi and he will have the chance to measure himself against the Barcelona star’s long-time rival Ronaldo when Liverpool meet Madrid in the Champions League final on Saturday.

During the 20-minute gameplay footage revealed at the Tokyo Game Show earlier this week, Snake is joined on the battlefield by Quiet, an expert markswoman.

The numbered titles of the series have typically been “one man vs....

Analyst Skip Bayless said the NBA Top 75 ceremony at the All-Star Game halftime Sunday cemented Jordan as the greatest of all time. On Thursday’s podcast episode of “The Skip Bayless Show,” Bayless said: The entire list was announced in alphabetical order, so for Jordan to be named last could infer that he was saved specifically for the end. As the old notion goes, one saves the best for last, so that logic agrees with Bayless’ comments....

The Minecraft 1.5 update, which is more well-known as the Redstone Update, has been in the works ever since it was discussed at MineCon. As the update’s title implies, Mojang has focused on expanding redstone-based items and qualities.
