Nativity Scenes One morning in 1947 when Chamber of Commerce workers, Clotille Thompson and Iris Ragsdale went to a staff meeting, they saw Chamber
manager E.0. "Red" Wedgeworth sitting with his feet propped up on his desk and a thoughtful look in his eyes as he gazed out the window. Clotille and Iris knew that some big project was in the making.Now,
fifty years later, Wedgeworth's "brain storm" has become a set of seven panels depicting the birth and early life of Jesus. The panels are on display as a part of the Celebration of Lights in Recreation Park.
Wedgeworth had the knack of selecting exactly the right persons to accomplish any of his projects, and his choice of Mrs. Lynn (Edwina) Boyd was no exception. Projects like this require money and volunteers, and Mrs.
Boyd was able to find people to supply the need. The original artists included Claudine Vail, Olive Hills, Rachel Pursley, Mrs. John Andrews, Charles Thomas, Mrs. Bill Davis, Florence Jackson, Doris Rinegart, Jim
Garrett and Henry Garrett. Robin Vail, son of Bob and Claudine Vail, who was a small child in 1947, remembers going with his mother to a large building and playing on the floor while she painted faces of the people in
the scenes.
Amitriptyline hcl 25 mg cost aridin 500 mg, atorvastatin 40 mg costarifen 25 mg, fluvastatin 40 mg) Where to buy nolvadex and clomid uk are not available in India. No studies on their long term efficacy and safety are available.
The new guidelines will be a boost for the drug industry which is grappling wth a sharp downward trend. Industry insiders blame the declining fortunes of drug sector on a combination of slowdown demand, the rise in generic medicine pricing, a slowdown of the US food and drug regulator, a rise in "non-availability"—meaning the absence at pharmacy of a drug that is on shelves in many other countries.
Drugmakers are taking the new guidelines seriously, sources added. But the industry would be quick to point out that some of these drugs have existed without generic counterparts in India for years. The most recent of them is Atorvastatin 40 mg. The drug that cost Rs 11,633 in 2007, was recently made available in generic form at around Rs 5,000 a unit after being "excluded for generic manufacturing" by the Indian regulator.
It may be noted that atorvastatin is only now gaining market share as prices have come down, amitriptyline cost uk although the drug has been on market for about three years now.
The new guidelines will also be a big morale booster to the pharma industry, particularly as they have just agreed to put in place a generic version of Gleevec, the only medicine in country without generic copies. The drug was priced in India at Rs 21,000, or about 17 a pop when first manufactured in 2000/2001. It was priced at Rs 20,400 in 2012/13. But even since the latest guidelines were notified, cost of Gleevec—at a time growing health care expenditure—has come down from Rs 17,000. The manufacturers say that since drug had just come back in stock, the price was expected to come down further.
"The new guidelines are a positive sign for drugs," said Sanjay Kapoor, chief operating officer and managing partner of Cairn Pharma, which makes the drug. "In general, guidelines have come up with the idea of rationalisation and simplification regulations. A lot of rules are needed to be simplified make it easier for the pharma industry to enter segment. Now the drug industry looks to go for these drugs, which can provide the patient with affordable medicine to treat serious diseases."
