• Verdicts & Settlements December 30, 2011: Man Settles Lawsuit Over Loss of Smell, Taste

An Osage Beach man who sued over his loss of smell after taking the cold remedy Zicam recovered $10,000 this year in a settlement from the case's multidistrict litigation in Arizona. Raymond Carter Smith sued Zicam, its parent company Matrixx Initiatives Inc. and the product's manufacturer, Botanical Laboratories Inc., in April 2010 after he bought a Zicam product at a Walmart. After one use in 2009, he experienced a burning sensation that lasted for about 30 minutes and then noticed a complete loss of his senses of smell and taste, said his attorney, Stephen F. Aton, of Springfield.

• The Loss of Iron City has Left a Bad After Taste

I drank nothing but Iron City for more than 35 years," says [Rich Malter Jr.], sitting at a table in Frank N Stein's bar in Ross Township - and staring at the bottle of Miller High Life in his hand. "But I can't do it anymore. I can't stop thinking, "These guys have my job.' Ask [Mike Graham] for [Joe Piccirilli]'s most obvious misstep, and he responds with a laugh. "That would be the time that Joe said, 'We're going to take Iron City to Cleveland.' I told them everything that makes Iron City what it is in Pittsburgh is the reason it will never sell in Cleveland. His response was, 'We'll put a Browns logo on it/ We went to Cleveland to do focus groups, and they said, 'We don't want it.'" "I don't believe they did one thing that they pledged to do," [Patrick Dowd] contends. The new keg...

• Cresskill's Motor Hits Second Gear

CRESSKILL -- Friday night was everything Cresskill could want in a regular season finale. No one got hurt. The Cougars, ranked No. 23 in the North Jersey Top 25, got to experiment a little. And, perhaps best of all, Cresskill got to wipe the taste of last week's loss to Becton out of its mouth before the North 1 Group 1 playoffs begin. Senior running back Gino LaGalia led the way, carrying 34 times for 215 yards and four touchdowns as Cresskill stopped Secaucus, 34-20, in a NJIC crossover game at Arch Shaw Field.

• Desperate Bonnies Visit Ub

All-Atlantic 10 center and potential NBA lottery pick Andrew Nicholson makes his final Buffalo appearance tonight when a St. Bonaventure team fueled by desperation meets UB at Alumni Arena (7, TWC13, Radio 1230 AM). The Bonnies (2-3) will be looking to wash away the awful taste of Thursday's 58-52 loss to Arkansas State at the Reilly Center. Bona led the game by 14 with less than 11 minutes remaining but went without a field goal the rest of the way. A quality road win would have a cleansing effect. UB is 4-1 and coming off a pair of resounding victories.

• U.S. District Court in Minnesota Rules Loss-of-Smell Expert's Theory Can't Support Claim

Users of Cold-Eeze nasal spray couldn't sue over their loss of taste and smell because their expert's theory of causation hadn't been tested and he otherwise relied on questionable studies and data, a U.S. District Court in Minnesota has ruled. The plaintiffs alleged that zinc gluconate in the nasal spray product, which was intended to treat cold symptoms, damaged the olfactory epithelium in their noses, causing them to lose their senses of taste and smell. Before marketing the nasal spray, the defendant conducted testing which determined no loss of smell or taste occurred from use.

• Tech's Busy Stretch Continues with Romp Over Newark

MONTGOMERY - The first order of business for WVU Tech in its game Saturday was to rid itself of the bad taste of the previous loss to Davis & Elkins. The second goal was to prepare for a very busy week ahead. The Golden Bears accomplished half that mission at the Baisi Center, pummeling Ohio State-Newark 103-55. How that result prepared the Bears for home games Monday against Salem International, Tuesday against Ohio Valley and Thursday against Bluefield State, it's tougher to tell.

• Restoring Lost Sense of Taste Can Be Difficult

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: This past winter I had a bad cold. After it was over, I found I couldn't taste food. My sense of taste hasn't come back. Will this ever get better? - C.T.
