The Oklahoma Senate Tuesday approved legislation that will require out-of-state compounding pharmacies that deliver, dispense, or distribute prescription drugs in Oklahoma to submit an affidavit and pharmacy site inspection form to receive a license.
Sen. Rob Standridge, author of Senate Bill 522, said the legislation was authored to prevent the sort of tragedy that occurred last year when a Massachusetts pharmacy was linked to more than 300 fungal meningitis infections and 23 deaths.
The Attorney General’s Office today honored Oklahoma Banking Fraud Investigator Elaine Dodd with the 2013 Brad Edwards Consumer Champion Award for her work on behalf of Oklahoma seniors and defrauded customers. Dodd, of Edmond, is the vice president of the fraud division at the Oklahoma Bankers Association. The division is the only banking association fraud division in the nation.

St George’s Church in the village of Sarsena, in the Tamiya district of Fayoum provincein Egypt was set ablaze by local Muslims who later attacked the building for a second time while a “reconciliation” meeting was taking place.
It was first attacked on Friday evening (15 February). Hundreds of Muslims, who had been incited by Salafists, congregated outside the church and hurled bricks at the building. They then climbed to the church dome, started demolishing it and set the place of worship on fire. Extensive damage was caused.
The mob threw stones at the minister, who was rescued by a Muslim family. He and a number of other Christians suffered slight injuries.
The Daily Caller is highlighting Wednesday’s broadcast of FNC’s “The Five,” co-host Greg Gutfeld responding to a statement from MSNBC “The Daily Rundown” host Chuck Todd that it’s a “mythology” to believe the mainstream media are hostile toward conservatives.
Ok, so Tulsa Today has appreciated Greg Gutfeld for a long time and, here in just a one paragraph, you may see why:
“But I guess if you believe in an objective media, you’ll believe in anything: like a whistle is better than a gun; redistribution beats opportunity; black conservatives are Uncle Toms and female conservatives are scolds; that being born white is racist; that tolerance requires calling terror ‘workplace violence’; that our country’s energy can be found in griffin lint; that the tea party is more harmful than drug lords; that Occupy Wall Streeters were cuddly Muppets; that choice matters before birth, not after; that a border is selfish; that every tenet of the left hasn’t saddled most young Americans with a toxic notion of entitlement without achievement, drowning in disposable culture as China rifles our wallets and our hard drives. But it’s easy to miss media bias. To quote Madge from Palmolive [commercials], ‘You don’t see it my dear, because you’re soaking in it,’” said Gutfeld with no small degree of passionate delivery.
