Why?

ATLANTA -- Pregnant women will still be able to get a drastically cheaper version of a new expensive drug that prevents premature birth, federal health officials said Wednesday.
Since the drug was approved, it's been unclear whether women would have to pay $1,500 per dose for the licensed version or could continue to have it made by specialty pharmacies for $10 to $20.
The drug got a new start in 2003, when a study showed it helps prevent premature birth in women who previously delivered early. Doctors started prescribing it, and pharmacies mixed it. Since then, it has been a success.


In International News…

HAVANA -- Former President Jimmy Carter left Cuba on Wednesday without gaining the release of a U.S. government contractor jailed the past 16 months.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- Four former Auburn players have told HBO's "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel" they received thousands of dollars while being recruited by or playing for the Tigers.
Stanley McClover, Troy Reddick, Chaz Ramsey and Raven Gray told HBO for an episode airing Wednesday night that they received cash payments - in book bags, envelopes and even handshakes. Ramsey played at Auburn most recently, in the 2007 season.
"You walk out (after games) and all the fans are waiting for (players) to sign autographs and some random guy just walks up to you and shakes your hand and it's a wad full of money," said Ramsey, adding that he was given $300 or $400 a game.
Ramsey said he was paid $5,000 to $6,000 while at Auburn.

In National News..

A Milwaukee man convicted of choking the life out of seven women during a 21-year killing spree was sentenced Thursday to spend the rest of his life in prison, and prosecutors said they may yet tie Walter E. Ellis to two or more unsolved slayings.

Ellis, 50, was convicted last week after he pleaded no contest to charges of first-degree intentional homicide and first-degree murder.

All seven victims were strangled, either by hand or with a rope or clothing tied around their necks. One was also stabbed.

Outside the courtroom, victims' families and friends collapsed into each other's arms. They laughed and cried together, grateful that the sentencing finally brought closure to decades of uncertainty.



In International News…

Paraguay extradited three Lebanese men to the United States on Thursday - two on drug trafficking charges and another who faces trial in Philadelphia for allegedly selling stolen cell phones and used cars to raise funds for extremist activities in Lebanon.

The Iranian-backed political group, which now has a major role in Lebanon's government, is considered by the United States to be a terrorist organization.

He faces 25 years if convicted of 31 charges filed in November 2009 in Philadelphia. Hamdan said after his arrest that he's been falsely accused, and that if he weren't Muslim would not have been charged.

What a homecoming it was for Carmelo Anthony…

Anthony was an immediate star on his first day as a Knick, and he capped off his big day by scoring 27 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in a 114-108 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night.

Anthony made only 10 of 25 shots but was at his best in the closing minutes, helping New York hold on after fellow superstar Amare Stoudemire fouled out. He matched the third-highest scoring game in a Knicks debut since 1964.
