GD gets $130,000 bonus for screwing up the launch of Makena - wow.
I listened to TMcH at the Needham conference yesterday and he is a complete fool (and like Divis extremely ugly).

But don't worry the creams will save you - and all of the Ob/gyn's that loved your Makena pricing will prescribe Gynadog and Clitesse - just to make sure that the KV saga continues - they want to see the train wreck when the $200 million "put" in August 2013 is called.

Ah- so that it is it. Management want to trip a chapter 11 (so long as they have reached breakeven) and wipe out the share holders and convert the bond holders to equity and they can still keep their jobs at incredibly inflated salaries and bonuses. At present they heading straight to a Chapter 7.
 






Wow making more head lines.

So sad...how can GD get a bonus like that and they are filing chapter 11? He doesn't care about any of us as long as he gets his huge salary and bonus for what? what does he do? besides run this company into the ground. This company was better with Dave Van Vilet. Terrible.
