On Saturday, June 1, the community came together at Western Nevada College Fallon Campus for the Empty Bowls event, a heartwarming blend of artistry, generosity, and ice cream. Attendees were invited to donate a non-perishable food item or make a monetary contribution to support the Fallon Karma Box. This local initiative assists those in need.

In return, participants had the opportunity to choose from a stunning selection of handcrafted ceramic bowls, each one a unique piece of art and a poignant reminder of the cause. After selecting their bowl, guests were treated to a scoop of ice cream, bringing a sweet ending to a sweet act of giving. The event was organized by the Fallon Chamber of Commerce, which extends a sincere thank you to WNC for the use of their building.

C Comment author: Carl C. HagenComment text: What are MFNs and PBMs ?? ............................ From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITORComment author: Debra J RidenourComment text: So sorry for your loss.
