keytruda is used to treat more patients with advanced lung cancer than any other immunotherapy. keytruda may be used with certain chemotherapies as your first treatment if you have advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer and you do not have an abnormal “egfr” or “alk” gene. keytruda helps your immune system fight cancer, but can also cause your immune system to attack healthy parts of your body. this can happen during or after treatment and may be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you have cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, diarrhea, severe stomach pain or tenderness, severe nausea or vomiting, headache, light sensitivity, eye problems, irregular heartbeat, extreme tiredness, constipation, dizziness or fainting, changes in appetite, thirst, or urine, confusion or memory problems, muscle pain or weakness, fever, rash, itching, or flushing. these are not all the possible side effects. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions including immune system problems, or if you've had an organ transplant, had or plan to have a stem cell transplant or have had radiation to your chest area or a nervous system condition. it feels good to be here for them. living longer is possible.

it's tru. keytruda from merck. ask your doctor about keytruda.

(fisher investments) no. we structure our fees so we do better when clients do better. that might be why most of our clients come from other money managers. at fisher investments, we're clearly different. ongoing impact of the drought already looming this summer a new report from a bay area

environmental group is suggesting that we still could save massive amounts of water in california. yeah the study from the pacific inst. focused in part on water used for homes and buildings and they found that by replacing lawns with drought tolerant plants and swapping out older washers and is for higher efficiency appliances along with some other steps the state could cut its urban water usage by nearly half. by adopting these efficient appliances and fixtures and landscapes and we can be recycling and reusing more of our wastewater and capturing storm water. so it's really highlights what i think are important opportunities for us. they're far more than i think many have thought about and now we need to do the hard but important work of realizing that potential. now the report also argues the state could nearly the amount of water we reuse by investing in infrastructure and expanding water purific. facilities. yeah, we are expecting rain this week dan, but the question is it going to be enough.
