The Haves and the Have-Nots. 12:51 p.m. | Updated Updated with additional explanation of how the chart controls for different costs of living around the world.
I had a review this weekend about “The Haves and the Have-Nots,” a new book by the World Bank economist Branko Milanovic about inequality around the world. My favorite part of the book was this graph, next to which I actually wrote “awesome chart” in the margin: Branko Milanovic, “The Haves and the Have-Nots,” p. 116. The graph shows inequality within a country, in the context of inequality around the world.

Merck to Bristol-Myers Face Threats on India Patents (Correct) (Corrects last paragraph to show Dekkers said “Indian market” and include full quote.)
Pharmaceutical companies from Merck & Co. (MRK:US) to Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY:US) face fresh threats to protecting their patents in India as a government-appointed panel prepares to evaluate more drugs for local makers to copy. The panel is looking beyond the cancer treatments it studied last year to areas such as HIV and diabetes, according to two people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. It plans to study more than 20 drugs and recommend the government assign about three so-called compulsory licenses to allow local firms to make low-priced copies in India, they said.
The heightened scrutiny illustrates how emerging markets are becoming harder to navigate for global drugmakers including Pfizer Inc. Industry Awakens to Threat of Climate Change.

Butler_MO.mp3. What Smart Cities Can Learn from Memphis. Richard J.
Alley | Wednesday, March 26, 2014 The City of Memphis is on the rise thanks to a growing startup community, investments in bike lanes, a burgeoning arts district and people moving back to the city. Through it all, the city has listened to its residents and embraced 'lean urbanism.' The story of sprawl in Memphis begins as early as the 1950s and with one of the first suburban shopping centers in the country, Poplar Plaza, built at the edge of the city's eastern limit. The sprawl continued in earnest throughout the '70s, cutting into the surrounding county with the deliberateness and tenacity of a Mississippi River current as developers gobbled up land further and further east.

Inmates in Brazilian jail cycle to freedom. SANTA RITA DO SAPUCAI, Brazil (AP) — Brazilian inmate Ronaldo da Silva hops on a bicycle and pedals furiously, clocking up several miles (kilometers) before slowing down and jumping off.
Silva hasn't gotten far, in fact not an inch. He's still inside the medium-security prison where he's serving a 5.5-year sentence for holding up a bakery, standing next to a stationary bike. But he did move a bit closer to freedom. WASHplus Weekly: Focus on WASH and Nutrition.
