Fears of tainted image for NZ milk
Relevant offers
A product used to reduce pollution in Kiwi waterways has been pulled off the market after traces of it were found in New Zealand milk.
While the Ministry for Primary Industries insists there are no food safety or health risks, the presence of dicyandiamide (DCD) alone could have major implications for local exporters.
DCD is the active ingredient in Eco-n and DCN - products used to reduce nitrogen leaching on dairy farms. It has been added to an international list of substances that must be tested by organisations such as the United States Food and Drug Administration.
MPI standards deputy director general Carol Barnao said while DCD has not been found to have an effect on food safety, the presence of residues in milk could be unacceptable to consumers and international markets, even in small amounts found in testing.
Food regulators around the world are tightening testing in line with more demanding markets and in some countries there is no tolerance to residues outside standards.
Milk markets remain sensitive after the incident several years ago when Chinese infants died and thousands were sick after drinking melamine-contaminated milk.
Eco-n's owner, Christchurch-based fertiliser co-operative Ravensdown, says DCD has been safely used around the world for 30 years, but it had taken the precaution of suspending its product for the rest of the year to retain New Zealand's dairy export reputation.
Chief executive Greg Campbell said research by the company and the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) showed there were no food safety issues with DCD.
"What's changed is that last year organisations like the US Food and Drug Administration added DCD to a list of substances to test for. This, combined with increasingly sophisticated scanning technology, now presents a possible trade risk," he said.
"Given the risk to New Zealand's dairy export reputation, Ravensdown has taken the initiative and is suspending the single product which uses DCD for this calendar year."
He said there had never been a set of international standards around maximum residue levels in food products because DCD had been used safely for a long time.
"Because no standard exists for DCD, no detectable presence is acceptable. And because zero detection of DCD cannot be guaranteed, Ravensdown has taken the responsible, voluntary step to suspend its use while the trade issues are resolved," he said.
The action would cost the company $12 million to $14m in lost revenue.
Green MP Eugenie Sage said the suspended products were never the magic bullet to reducing nitrate leaching, and stronger measures were needed to reduce pollution in waterways.
"Improved land use controls, including reducing stock numbers in sensitive catchments such as the Te Waihora, Lake Ellesmere and the Mackenzie Basin, more efficient water use and careful attention to fertiliser application and soil moisture levels are more important in improving nutrient management."
An assessment of DCD on farmland began in December when the MPI set up a working party of ministry officials, Fonterra and other dairy companies and the fertiliser companies Ravensdown and Ballance, which sells DCN.
DCD, short for dicyandiamide, is a biodegradable compound slowing the rate that soil bacteria converts ammonia into nitrate and nitrous oxide.
The ingredient is widely used in industries such as electronics, pharmaceuticals and food packaging. DCD is the only product recognised nationally to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture.

A knifeman caught on camera brandishing a samurai sword at passersby after attacking a man in a café has been sectioned.
Thousands of people watched footage of Lulzim Osaj, aged 45, ranting and slamming the blade onto tables at Cappucino in London Road, Norbury, after it emerged online last year.
Albanian-born Osaj, of Colmer Road, Streatham, visited the café to confront the man, a former friend, during an ongoing feud on July 15.
The pair argued before Osaj hit the victim with a laptop bag, Croydon Crown Court heard yesterday.
Prosecutor Zoe Jacob said: "The victim hit him with a fork. Osaj then hit the victim with the samurai sword and caused a cut to his arm."
Osaj then left the café brandishing the decorative sword at onlookers before being arrested in London Road.
Edward Atkinson, defending, said Osaj suffered mental health problems, for which he took medication, and had been affected by break-up of his relationship at the time of the attack.
He added the Osaj had received threatening texts and phonecalls and had armed himself because had once seen the victim with a gun.
Mr Atkinson said: "He wanted to have an ordinary fight with the victim but says he saw the victim move to pick up a steak knife.
"The victim continue coming at the defendant even when the samurai sword was produced."
The two men brawled in the café, upturning chairs and tables, before Osaj left. He was wrestled to the ground by police officers and arrested on London Road soon after.
Osaj pleaded guilty to affray and threatening with an offensive weapon on October 20.
He had initially also been charged with grievous bodily harm, possession of a pointed and/or bladed article, criminal damage and theft, but those charges were dropped.
After reading a report compiled by doctors, Judge Nicholas Ainley said "the only option available" was to detain Osaj in hospital for treatment under section 37 of the Mental Health Act.

So what was the last song you listened to? And do you feel good, bad or indifferent about it?
For me:
Billy Bragg - Sulk
and I feel better than good about it. It's one of my favourite tunes which is what made me think of starting yet another one of these threads. I find them good for inspiration.

Off Da Hook! Ninth Circuit Vindicates Irell in Broadcom Case
The Ninth Circuit on Wednesday weighed into an interesting little spat between former Broadcom CFO William Ruehle (pictured) and lawyers at Irell & Manella — and sided with the latter.
The disagreement concerned a type of misunderstanding that seems to arise with increasing frequency: whether lawyers during an internal company probe are representing a singular executive or the company itself.
Let us take a step back to explain.
The case involves the criminal fraud trial against Ruehle, who was indicted on conspiracy and fraud charges for allegedly backdating stock option grants. Broadcom hired Irell in June 2006 to review stock-option grants, and the firm's lawyers interviewed Ruehle.
At issue was whether Irell clearly explained to Ruehle that it was representing the company and anything he told them could be shared with third parties, including the government. Irell lawyers maintained they disclosed the relevant disclaimers to Ruehle, according to court papers. Ruehle said he couldn't remember receiving such notice.
The lower court — judge Cormac Carney — said the law firm breached its duty of loyalty to Ruehle by revealing his statements to the government and banned the government from using those statements in its trial, slated to begin later this month. He also referred the lawyers to the California state bar for disciplinary action.
But on Wednesday, the Ninth Circuit, in a 31-page opinion penned by Judge Richard C. Tallman, rejected Carney's analysis, ruling that the "overwhelming evidence" shows that Ruehle's statements to the Irell lawyers were not made in confidence. Ruehle, Tallman wrote, should have understood that lawyers investigating the stock-option issue would likely share any information he provided with the company's auditors.
Ruehle and a spokesperson for Irell & Manella weren't immediately available for comment. The case is set to go to trial Oct. 20.

It opens with a Getting Started Chapter that comprehensively introduces the reader to the CodeIgniter framework with download and install instructions, MVC architecture overview, coding conventions and CodeIgniter specific files: helpers, plugins and libraries.
I found it interesting that the first core CodeIgniter class mentioned is the Benchmarking Class. This sets a precedent to the reader to consider monitoring their application execution time and memory consumption as they develop. Application speed and efficiency is usually something left for latter chapters involving heavy code refactoring to ensure your app is performant. I find it refreshing that benchmarking and unit testing is shown to the reader at the beginning.
Other core classes covered include the Input and Security Class (with XSS filtering), Email Class, File Upload Class, Image Manipulation Library, Pagination Class and the Session Class. All relevant classes in most applications.
Form Validation, Database Interaction, Application Security and User Authentication are heavily described in this book with the latter also covering Twitter oAuth and Facebook Connect. Two very important connections for any web application with detailed steps on each, from registration with these companies through to production coding examples. A real one stop guide.Read more ›

Really helped me to understand and get started using codeigniter. You won't regret reading this, its an easy first step to learning the framework.Published on 8 Dec. 2012 by Thomas
I enjoyed reading and learning this book. It is for me the best book to get started with CodeIgniter along with the user guide on the CodeIgniter website. Read morePublished on 15 Aug. 2010 by Christophe

Topaz Energy and Marine ('Topaz'), a leading oilfield services group, has secured a two vessel contract offshore Nigeria for the duration of 2011. The award constitutes a new market entry for Topaz in the strategically important and buoyant West African offshore sector.
Topaz has mobilised two Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessels (AHTSV), Topaz Johor and Topaz Jurong, for an eight month contract to support operations in the Atlas, Mira and Brittania fields, offshore Nigeria, on behalf of AXXIS Petroconsultants Ltd.
The award of the contract follows the development of a Topaz management team for West Africa, led by Roy Donaldson, Chief Operating Officer at Topaz Marine, who has over 10 years of operational experience in Nigeria.
Topaz Chief Executive Officer, Fazel A. Fazelbhoy commented;
"This award fits well with our international expansion plan and is significant since it lays the first cornerstone of Topaz's strategic presence in the region. These markets are large, high growth and will reward those that are well prepared with the right strategy. The youth and operational flexibility of our fleet gives us a compelling advantage due to increasingly stringent safety regulations and vessel age restrictions."
"We have taken our first step in the West African offshore sector and we believe this market has immense potential for growth. We look forward to exploring further market opportunities during the course of the year."
Topaz's entry into West Africa is part of the group's long-term strategy to follow 'future oil' and expand into deep-water offshore growth markets. Earlier in 2011, Topaz Marine completed the successful US$ 40 million acquisition of 2 anchor handling vessels in Brazil, operating on 3-year contracts for Petrobras, marking its entry into the Brazilian offshore sector. Both of these contract wins will serve as spring boards for Topaz to grow its operations further.

30 May 2007
Die Zauberflöte at the Volksoper
Serpents, abduction, magic flutes, a sacred priesthood and, of course….love, are a few of the elements Mozart used to comprise his mason-influenced collaboration with Emanuel von Schikaneder.
'A caprice written with the point of a needle': so Berlioz described his opera Béatrice and Bénédict, which pares down Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing to its comic quintessence, shorn of the sub-plots, destroyed reputations and near-bloodshed of Shakespeare's original.
'This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.' It is, perhaps, a line quoted too often; yet, even though it may not have been entirely accurate on this occasion, it came to my mind. Its accuracy might be questioned in several respects.
Central City Opera celebrated the 60th anniversary of The Ballad of Baby Doe with a hip, canny, multi-faceted new production.
Someone forgot to tell Central City Opera that it would be difficult to fit Puccini's (usually) architecturally large Tosca on their small stage.
A cast worthy of Bayreuth made for an unforgettable Wagnerian experience at the Sommer Festspiele in Baden-Baden.
Loving attention to the highest quality was everywhere evident in Des Moines Metro Opera's Manon.
Des Moines Metro Opera had (almost) all the laughs in the right places, and certainly had all the right singers in these meaty roles to make for an enjoyable outing with Verdi's masterpiece
With the thermometers reaching boiling point, there's no doubt that summer has finally arrived in London. But, the sun seems to have been shining over the large marquee in Holland Park all summer.
J.S. Bach's cerebral Art of the Fugue in Aix, Verdi's massive Requiem in Orange, Ibn al-Muqaffa' 's fable of the camel, jackal, wolf and crow, Sophocles' blind Oedipus Rex and the Bible's triumphant Psalm No. 150 in Aix.
The champagne corks popped at the close of this year's Jette Parker Young Artists Summer Performance at the Royal Opera House, with Prince Orlofsky's celebratory toast forming a fitting conclusion to some superb singing.
Bryn Terfel is making a habit of performing Russian patriarchs at the Proms.
What happens when just everything about an operatic performance goes joyously right?
Two years ago, the well-established Des Moines Metro Opera experimented with a 2nd Stages program, with performances programmed outside of their home stage at Simpson College.
What to make of the unannounced decision to open this concert with the Marseillaise? I am sure it was well intended, and perhaps should leave it at that.
In a fairy-tale, it can sometimes feel as if one is living a dream but on the verge of being awoken to a shock. Such is life in these dark and uncertain days.
The tense, three hour knock-down-drag-out seduction of Beauty by Pleasure consumed our souls in this triumphal evening. Forget Time and Disillusion as destructors, they were the very constructors of the beauty and pleasure found in this miniature oratorio.
Three parallel universes (before losing count) — the ephemeral Debussy/Maeterlinck masterpiece, the Debussy symphonic tone poem, and the twisted intricacies of a moldy, parochially English country estate.
This, alas, was where I had to sign off. A weekend conference on Parsifal (including, on the Saturday, a showing of Hans-Jürgen Syberberg's Parsifal film) mean that I missed Götterdämmerung, skipping straight to the sequel.
The culmination of Opera North's "Ring for Everyone", this Götterdämmerung showed the power of the condensed movement so necessary in a staged performance - each gesture of each character was perfectly judged - as well as the visceral power of having Wagner's huge orchestra on stage as opposed to the pit.
Michael Grandage's production of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro, which was new in 2012, returned to Glyndebourne on 3 July 2016 revived by Ian Rutherford.
Serpents, abduction, magic flutes, a sacred priesthood and, of course….love, are a few of the elements Mozart used to comprise his mason-influenced collaboration with Emanuel von Schikaneder.
The Wiener Volksoper's 2007 production of Die Zauberflöte is rich with visual effects, including a large mechanical dragon that emerges from the depths of the stage, a vibrant rotating set complete with "living" statues who are elevated high above the stage; a gargantuan telescope and fire set the scene for what was unfortunately a mediocre production, other than a few glimmering aspects.
The Overture was well-effected but somewhat mechanical and it lacked in the necessary colours and shading that Mozart's music demands. Conductor, Elisabeth Attl seemed to have little influence over the orchestra that in some moments seemed to be just going through the motions. The three ladies, sung by Edith Lienbacher, Sulie Girardi, and Andrea Bönig looked fabulous in matching gowns and hats (and later clad in leather and tattoos) complete with walking canes, however their singing was often strident and in what should be a unified harmonic ensemble there were inconsistencies in unity.
Die Königin der Nacht (Queen of the Night) was eloquently sung by Miriam Ryen, who had a brilliant and laser-like upper tessitura and beautiful agility in her coloratura passages, however the orchestra often overpowered her and thus obscured her musicality. Her Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen was visually exciting with an electric red sky from which hung an enormous crescent moon. Some intonation problems affected her performance of this aria, that also lacked the tremendous rage that Mozart expected here.
Papageno was performed by Mathias Hausmann who possesses a lovely burnished baritone to match his consummate dramatic abilities. His Der Volgelfänger bin ich ja was not only amusing, but sung with much inflection and attention to detail. Unfortunately, the following entrance by Daniel Behle, as Tamino, left much to be desired. His Dies Bildinis ist bezanbernd schön lacked the brilliant sound that the aria requires and his acting was somewhat superficial throughout the opera. One wondered if he was really in love with Pamina or not.
Pamina's entrance was visually wonderful, as she was dragged in by Monostatos (played by Wolfgang Gratschmaier) in a large net. American Soprano, Jennifer O'Loughlin's Pamina was artistically beyond the rest of her cast. She effected every entrance with lovely spinning tones in a deep golden hue in her middle voice, and her musicality was well-suited to the lyricism Mozart demanded of a superb Pamina. The orchestra, however, was highly insensitive to Ms. O'Loughlin's middle and lower registers and failed to match her musical nuances. A sensitive and believable actress, her Ach, ich Fühl's es ist verschwunden was luscious and effected with impeccable diction, and well-floated pianissimi that give credit to her vocal technique.
Lars Woldt, in the role of the Sprecher, possessed a strong and well-projected voice, and his presence added to the overall dramatic impetus of the production. In addition, Kaiser Nkosi's Sarastro opened Act II with strong dramatic and vocal qualities. His middle register was a lovely purple hue, however he lacked resonance in his lower tessitura, an unfortunate detail that affected the strength of Sarastro's character.
Some of the most comical moments to which the audience responded belonged to Papageno and Papagena (comedically played alla Lucille Ball by Renée Schüttengruber). Complete with hot pink wig, and the whiniest fabricated voice, Papagena stole Papageno's heart, and the audience's as well. If anything stood out in this production it was the musicality and unity of the "Three Boys" who were played by the Wiener Sängerknaben. Mozart's opera is imbued with many numerical elements in groups of three and these trios (the three spirits, the three ladies, and three priests in the temple) should be unified textually and harmonically. The three boys were perhaps the most precise musically and kudos go out to them for stealing the show. Although a visually interesting production, the orchestra often marred the musicality of the singers, and most bothersome was how members of the orchestra got up and left the pit during the opera and then returned to later, not only disturbing the dramatic action but also creating a general lack of continuity in the musical fabric.

Thanks to suggestions posted earlier this year on our trip from St Louis through to Yellowstone, I think we have worked out a plan as far as Hill City where we will visit Mt Rushmore and other attractions as well as Badlands.
Next leg is from Hill City to Jackson, WY. Google has us going through Casper and the trip taking about 9 hours.
Is there anywhere we should stop en route or anything else we should be doing ? We are Australian and long distances don't worry us but I would hate to miss out on some fantastic attraction just for the sake of getting there quickly. Time is not really a problem.
We will be there mid September.
Thank you in advance!

Anthony Weiner presses on with mayoral campaign
Dave Evans reports despite intense pressure, Weiner shows no signs of bowing out
Ryan: What exactly does this woman have to do for her loyal followers to finally see who she really is? Just in the last 4 years alone, she has American blood on her hands, groomed the entire country of Libya to be overrun by ISIS, proven she cannot handle classified material, lied repeatedly under oath (or really is as dumb as she appeared in the investigation), and now was directly involved in a scheme to undermine the democratic process with the DNC. This is just in the last 4 years!!! Heck, she was fired from her very first job for ethics violations. She is a legitimate threat to the future of this country and people are still chanting her name like she's Mother Theresa. What will it take?

With few people seeking help in placing a phone call, AT&T has announced the elimination of 71 operator positions statewide, according to a union official.
William Henderson of Niantic, president of union Local 1298 of the Communications Workers of America, said this week that phone operators who once numbered about 4,000 in the state are down to only 100 or so.
The elimination of positions likely will affect several associates working on State Street in New London and all of the operators in the Waterbury office, Henderson said.
"It's the end of an era," he said.
AT&T spokesman Marty Richter confirmed that positions for directory-assistance and driving-direction operators are being eliminated. But, he said, the company expects most if not all of the job eliminations will involve voluntary separations based on an "enhanced severance" offer that includes six months of paid health insurance and an extra payout.
Richter said new technologies, especially smartphones, are reducing the need for directory assistance.
"We expect that trend to continue," he said. "This is a part of our business that's declining."
At the same time, Richter said, AT&T has hired nearly 500 U-verse technicians and retail associates in the past 16 months and is listing nearly 40 more openings.
Henderson said AT&T's plans call for any positions not eliminated through voluntary means to result in layoffs by inverse seniority, meaning the last one hired will be the first one let go. While AT&T is eliminating jobs related to its landline business, he said, the company's wireless operations are hiring, but the Texas-based conglomerate has refused to shift employees to other divisions.
"They should be offering jobs to people who want to stay," he said.
Henderson said some of the layoffs are related to a decision by AT&T to stop servicing Yale-New Haven Hospital's Centrex phone lines. But Richter said that while AT&T has seen a significant decline in its Centrex business, it plans to continue service to the hospital through the end of next year, helping in the transition to a new service.
Henderson said the jobs being eliminated are largely entry-level positions. But they are jobs that single mothers and others rely on to make ends meet, he said.
"It seems like they do it every year at this time," Henderson said of the layoffs. "This is a company that made $13 billion last year and is on pace to make $17 billion this year ... and just gave a $2 million bonus to its CEO.
"They're important jobs to keep," Henderson said. "This is a corporation that only cares about the bottom line."
Richter, however, pointed out that AT&T is the largest employer of full-time labor in the country, and the company has not laid off anyone in Connecticut during the past two years. As positions have been eliminated, he said, all workers have either found other positions within the company, have continued to work or have taken early retirement.
"Because we're performing well overall, AT&T can provide our 240,000 employees with quality middle class careers with wages and benefits that are among the best in the country," Richter said in an email.

About the exercise files
About the exercise files
When you download the exercise files, there's going to be two folders contained inside of that download: an Art Templates directory, which is going to contain all of the source Photoshop files we're going to use to create the assets for our photo gallery, and in addition there's going to be Photos for Gallery, which is going to contain all of the higher-resolution photography we're going to use to load inside of the Lightbox. This is going to be the highest-resolution previews we're going to offer though our web gallery. The page_template.psd contains all of the artwork we're going to use for the outer shell to create the design of our gallery.
And the two Photoshop files-- preview_sizes and thumbnail_sizes--are going to be the custom cropping that we're going to use to get the optimal design and cropping of each of our photographic images for our gallery. Inside of Final Project is going to be all the files we're going to create by the end of the class. We're going to be creating the file index.html, but I've also included the non-JavaScript version and the non-JavaScript and non-CSS version. When we looked at the introduction video, we saw how this particular technique is going to progressively enhance our user experience.
And then lastly, inside of the images directory we're going to have a template directory, which is going to contain all of the artwork that's going be used in the outer shell and design of our gallery. And inside of the gallery directory itself is going to be all of the photography that's going to be used in the gallery. Every one of the photographs is going to have three different versions. We're going to have a full-size version, which is going to be the graphic we load into the lightbox. We've got the preview graphic, which going to be the graphic on the far right. And then we've got the thumbnails which are the small graphics we're going to have on the left-hand side of our design. Let me close up these folders, and the first thing we're going to do is start from one of our Art Template directories inside Photo Galleries, and we're going to create some folders on the desktop and start our project.

Great sound,
This review is from: Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 (Accessory)
The X-Fi was a doddle to install on Win7 64bit. Just followed the instructions in it was up and running all in about 10 mins. The annoying thing was when the automatic updates started it took nearly 2 hours to download them from creative(and I have a 50mb connection). After all that, the updates installed and away it went The sound from my laptop was transformed in to excellent audio quality going through a set of Creative gigaworks G550w speakers. This was until the speakers cut out. At this point i was calling the X-Fi all the names under the sun but after calming down and trying it on a mates PC and speakers realised that the fault was with my G550w kit.( Anyone with these speakers take note) This was reinforced on several forums on the web so the XFI was not to blame.
After testing the XFI the sound quality is excellent and crisp. 5.1 surround is easy to set up and the packaged software is easy to use.
The product is excellent but I wouldnt count too much on Creative support for any after care or plan on doing anything for at least 2 hours when updating the software after first setting up.

|Period: ___________________
This test consists of 5 short answer questions, 10 short essay questions, and 1 (of 3) essay topics.
Short Answer Questions
1. Who says "As long as there are seas, ships, and men, there will be strange unsolved mysteries."?
2. According to CDR Dupree's log, which compartment in the sub is the only compartment breached?
3. How long has it been since Dirk has had a vacation?
4. How long can the reactor continue to run unattended?
5. Who is Adrian Hunter?
Short Essay Questions
1. Dirk notes some distinct oddities about the Starbuck's final resting place and the condition. Describe what these oddities mean.
2. Cussler gives a good description of rip tides after Dirk has swum out beyond the breakers at Kaena Point. Describe them, why they are dangerous and explain how best to swim through them if caught in one.
3. Why is the Starbuck's last reported position Top Secret information?
4. What is the significance of there not being any paper in the crew's lounge area of the Starbuck?
5. "Perhaps Pitt could do the impossible after all." These words go through Boland's mind after he hears that Pitt is radioing the Martha Ann from the Starbuck. There are several other references throughout the book so far that indicate Dirk has a reputation for being the sort of person who makes the wildly improbable succeed effortless. Who else has said this and where is that perception originating?
6. How are the dead bodies described on the Lillie Marlene? How does this description contribute to the myth of the Pacific Vortex?
7. What is the Fullerton Fracture Zone? Does it actually exist?
8. What are some of the ways that Dirk knows that Summer is neither a government agent nor an American?
9. What are the different mysteries or questions that ADM Hunter enumerates as he reads the log?
10. Why is the Martha Ann disguised to look like a rust-bucket merchant ship?
Essay Topics
Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:
Essay Topic 1
Dirk Pitt's National Underwater and Marine Agency actually exists. Clive Cussler founded it and it is run by himself and his son. What are the differences between the real NUMA and Dirk Pitt's NUMA? How are the character of Dirk Pitt and his NUMA representative of perhaps a deep seeded fantasy for the author, things he would really like to do and have exist? Are perhaps some of the events in the story autobiographical or merely a dream?
Essay Topic 2
Dirk refers to the salvage operations on the Thresher, the Bluefin, the Scorpion, and the submarine F-4. What are these boats or ships and what happened to them? How are they relevant to the sinking (and raising) of the Starbuck?
Essay Topic 3
Examined carefully, the association between Dirk's reason for visiting to the Polynesian history museum and George Papaaloa's story of Kanoli is slightly obscure except as a plot mechanism. There is nothing Papaaloa relates in the story of Kanoli to suggest that it is related to the Pacific Vortex. The relevance of this revelation seems somewhat abstract. This is especially true since the Vortex has only been "operational" for about 40 years. Rewrite this episode using the essence of the legend of Kanoli as it stands but add elements that allow the two stories to appear related, making the transition from one to the other more smoothly.

SOUTH PLAINFIELD, N.J., Aug. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today the journal Science published results of a preclinical study demonstrating that treatment with orally available RNA splicing modifiers of the SMN2 gene starting early after birth is preventing deficits in mouse models of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). Scientists from Roche Pharma Research and Early Development (pRED), PTC Therapeutics, Inc., the SMA Foundation, the University of Southern California and Harvard University collaborated to demonstrate that continuous treatment of SMA mice with these compounds increased life span, normalized body weight and prevented both disease-related motor dysfunction and neuromuscular deficits in a mouse model of SMA. To view the animation related to the study, please visit: SMA video
"The investigational compounds used in this study represent the first orally available SMN2 splicing modifiers for SMA," commented Stuart W. Peltz, CEO of PTC Therapeutics, Inc. "Using the experience and expertise in RNA biology we have gained at PTC over the last 16 years, we used our alternative splicing technology to identify and subsequently optimize investigational compounds that target the SMN2 splicing to produce the SMN protein. Our unique partnership with Roche and the SMA Foundation has allowed this project to rapidly move into clinical development."
"Although still preclinical, these results demonstrate how SMN2 splicing modifiers could correct the molecular deficit that causes SMA," said Luca Santarelli, Head of Neuroscience, Ophthalmology and Rare Diseases at Roche. "This study represents an important step towards developing a potential therapeutic option for this devastating and currently untreatable condition. Early clinical trials are currently underway to determine the safety and tolerability of this approach."
The study used chemical screening and optimization to identify orally available small molecules that selectively alter the splicing of the SMN2 pre-mRNA to produce stable full-length SMN protein. The SMN2 splicing modifiers described in the Science article penetrated into all mouse tissues tested including brain, spinal cord and muscle, and thus improved SMN2 RNA splicing to increase SMN protein production in these disease-relevant tissues. As a result of the SMN protein increase, the compounds prevented the progression of SMA in a severe mouse model. These compounds also corrected SMN2 RNA splicing and increased SMN protein levels in cell cultures obtained from SMA patients, including stem cell-derived motor neurons. A Phase I clinical program to assess safety and tolerability with investigational compounds was initiated in early 2014.
"The findings of this preclinical study contribute significantly to our understanding of SMA and provide further evidence suggesting that our strategy to upregulate SMN with small molecules could be effective," said Loren Eng, President of the SMA Foundation. "We are proud to have seeded this important work – we believe it could have a meaningful impact on the lives of patients who suffer from SMA."
SMA is a genetic disease caused by mutation or deletion of the SMN1 (survival of motor neuron) gene. It affects one in approximately 10,000 live births and in the most severe forms is associated with a high rate of childhood mortality. SMA is characterized by progressive loss of motor neurons, muscle weakness and atrophy. The disease affects mainly proximal muscles including intercostal muscles (chest muscles), and patients often die due to respiratory complications.
