| Rangers in same position as this time last year with 54 points
And there were overblown rumors of a rift within the dressing room and questions about Renney's ability to pull it all together. Sound familiar? Of course, it took one of the most effective trades in Rangers history - the Feb. 5 acquisition of Sean Avery - to get the 2006-07 team home. And it is unreasonable to believe Glen Sather can pull off another such catalyzer. But then, it also took some pretty impressive stretch runs by several other teams to make it so hard for the Rangers to make the playoffs. And they had to make their run largely without a key player - Brendan Shanahan was lost for 15 games and diminished for the rest in a horrifying collision Feb. 17. .
REMICADE(R) Becomes First Anti-TNF Biologic Therapy to Treat One ...
HORSHAM, Pa. and KENILWORTH, N.J., Nov. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Centocor, Inc., Schering-Plough Corporation, and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation announced today that an estimated one million patients have now been treated with REMICADE(R) (infliximab), the leading anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha therapy worldwide. In fact, REMICADE has been used to treat more patients worldwide than all other anti-TNF-alpha agents combined. REMICADE was the first anti-TNF-alpha treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), when it was indicated for the treatment of acute moderate to severe Crohn's disease in 1998. The indication for Crohn's disease was quickly followed by additional indications, such as rheumatoid arthritis. "Rheumatoid arthritis derailed my life," said Ellen Shmueli, RA patient.
High schools expand concussion playbook
It was early in the third quarter when two defenders converged on the Cherry Hill High School West football player, sending him flat onto his back. The junior fullback quickly bounced up and handed the ball to the referee. "Right after the play, my head hurt," Banecker said. "I walked to the sidelines, and my head felt fine again, so I kept playing." His mother, Loretta, cringed in the stands at Winslow Township High School and told her husband, Frank Sr., that she thought their son was hurt. Her husband shrugged it off, and their son finished the game. It wasn't until that night, when he pushed aside his favorite pasta dish and went to bed at 9:30 p.m., that his father agreed that something was wrong. Banecker had suffered a mild concussion with delayed symptoms.

Mystery behind trading scandal
They emerged more than two hours later with two large, black leather cases and one briefcase, but did not talk to reporters.
Meanwhile, skeptics from Kerviel's neighbors to France's prime minister questioned whether Kerviel could have manipulated such unfathomable sums -- comparable to a small country's annual economy -- all alone.
The bank insists he was a lone operator.
"When we interviewed him during the night Saturday and Sunday, he imagined that he had discovered methods able to win money on the markets," said Jean-Pierre Mustier, chief executive of the bank's corporate and investment banking arm.
Societe Generale says Kerviel's actions cost it 4.9 billion euros, or more than $7 billion. It has not explained his motivations and said the transactions didn't earn him any money.
Alberta green plan puts PM 'on the spot'
Canada stands to have the best economy in the world hands down due to in large part Alberta for the next hundred years if we can get it right. Believe me, no green tech is going to be as positive to our federal budget as Oil coming from Alberta and soon Sask. So you want it to be clean? Find a way to make it clean and sell it to us. Also look for it to come on the west coast and in the arctic. Its coming because liberal or conservative they both like having balanced budgets.

Mike Szostak’s women’s basketball notes: PC’s Marandola ...
Chelsea Marandola decided in mid-December to forgo the current basketball season so she would have two full, healthy seasons remaining to play for Providence College. She is comfortable with her decision. "I'm feeling better, and the more you feel better, the happier you are," the high-scoring guard from Johnston said yesterday from Alumni Hall. She did, indeed, sound happy. Marandola is recovering ever so slowly from a herniated disk in her lower back. She suffered the injury during a workout last May and has been in physical therapy since July. She has seen a specialist in Boston and has had three cortisone injections. The last one worked the best, she said, because the doctor put the needle "right on the spot, but it hurt really badly." She may need another shot.
