|METHOD FOR PREPARING CLOPIDOGREL AND ITS DERIVATIVES - The present invention relates to a method for preparing Clopidogrel and its derivatives. More particularly, the present invention is a method for preparation of (S)-2-Clopidogrel and its derivatives, which are active inhibitors of platelet aggregation, from an optically active (S)-2-chlorophenyl glycine alkyl ester through hydrolysis of racemic 2-chlorophenylglycine alkyl esters using an enzyme. The present invention employs a simple procedure to prepare Clopidogrel and its derivatives. Because no chiral resolving agents are used except for a small amount of enzyme, the cost of preparation can be reduced. In addition, the present invention is suitable for synthesizing highly optical-active Clopidogrel and its derivatives on a large scale by using optically active (S)-2-chlorophenylglycine alkyl ester obtained in high yield as an intermediate, and is also environmentally friendly since no highly toxic reagents are employed.

North Cumbrian mum caught drink driving on 'school run'
Published at 08:47, Friday, 17 February 2012
A Cumbrian woman was found to be over the drink drive limit on the 'school run.'
Police had been outside Beaconside Primary School on February 2 to target parents parking irresponsibly.
There was suspicion about Mary McNeill's state so officers followed when she drove off with her young son in the car.
McNeill, 34, of Milner Mount, Penrith, was found to be nearly three times over the limit. She admitted drink-driving.
Defence solicitor Chris Toms said she was a single mother of two who was under enormous stress.
McNeill was banned from the roads for 24 months, ordered to carry out 60 hours unpaid work and told to pay £85 court costs.

Letter from Max Muller
Hi Frank,
How long are we going to let the 39-year-old Baldwin Energy Complex in southern Illinois get away with its pollution?
I'm writing because you can help put this question where decision-makers can't ignore it. Click here to help fund our new media campaign.
In November, we're releasing a hard-hitting study that will cast a harsh spotlight on the Baldwin Complex, including its wildly outsized contribution to global warming. Built before Gerald Ford became president, the plant hasn't taken action to cut global warming pollution — ever. Why? It's never had to, because for eight years the Bush EPA failed to hold polluters accountable.
Worse, if things don't change, the plant will keep pumping more climate-changing pollution into our skies with no end in sight.
Which is why we want to put the Baldwin Complex's pollution on the evening news and in the morning headlines — just as the EPA and the U.S. Senate are reaching a decision point on the issue.
A bill in the Senate will promote clean energy, cap carbon pollution and help force coal-fired clunkers like Baldwin to clean up or make way for cleaner sources of power, like solar and wind. Proposed EPA regulations would have the same effect.
We know that the more people learn about coal-fired clunkers like the Baldwin Energy Complex, the more they understand why we need to repower Illinois with clean energy — and the more they want to know what we're going to do about it. Help our media team get the word out. Please chip in whatever you can today.
Together, we can hold one of Illinois' worst polluters to account, make a strong case for change, and help President Obama build the new clean energy economy of the future. Thanks for making it all possible.
Max Muller
Environment Illinois Program Director

Letter from Senator Alexander Regarding My Request For Him to Cosign Audit the Fed in the SenateSubmitted by doorkeeperJd on Thu, 11/01/2012 - 21:49
Dear Jesse,
Thanks very much for getting in touch with me and letting me know what's on your mind regarding the Federal Reserve System.
In 1913, Congress created the Federal Reserve System to serve as the central bank of the United States in order to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system. The Federal Reserve does not run on taxpayer dollars from Congress and returns any profits to the U.S. Treasury – including nearly $35 billion in 2008. However, by law the Federal Reserve is accountable to Congress. Members of its Board of Governors are confirmed by the U.S. Senate, and Federal Reserve officials must appear before congressional committees several times each year. In addition, the Federal Reserve must issue annual reports and undergo regular audits that cover most of its activities.
I don't believe that Congress should try to micromanage the Federal Reserve or weight it down with overly burdensome regulations. It was set up to be independent of the political trends in Washington, and it should remain that way. That's why I have voted against proposals that would go too far in limiting the Fed's independence. However, in order to provide Americans with more information about the extraordinary steps the Fed has taken in responding to the nation's economic crisis, I voted for an amendment to provide for an additional audit of the Federal Reserve Bank. The Fed would now be required to post information online about lending programs that have been used during this recession and include the names of entities receiving aid, how much aid was received, a repayment plan for the aid, and the reasons aid was given.
I appreciate your taking the time to let me know where you stand. I'll be sure to keep your comments in mind when the Federal Reserve is discussed and debated in Washington and in Tennessee.

Shakespeare's Leap

Why Shakespeare Resonates With the Modern Age
Only two years ago, a report that two-thirds of leading American universities had dropped the Shakespeare requirement for English majors in favor of courses on popular culture and gender studies prompted worries that the playwright was becoming a has-been, a victim of the commissars of political correctness and willfully watered-down curriculums. Today, happily, it's clear that such reports of Shakespeare's demise were vastly exaggerated.March 18, 1999 moviesNews

A small park with a monument that honors Carl Wilhelm Müller who was mayor of Leipzig in some years during the 18th century. The park is situated between the main station and the city. The Willy-Brandt-Platz is a central point where a lot of trams, buses and long distance and regional trains stop. The main station was build between 1911 and 1915. With 83,640 square meters it is largest station in Europe. Originally the station had 26 tracks inside and 5 outside. Nowadays it has 23 long distance tracks.
Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.Text by Steve Smith.

Odd shaped kitchen with high ceilings--what to do??
We just bought a lovely house on the Sacramento River in Northern California. We love the view from our kitchen, problem is the kitchen is plain jane and outdated. I would love ANY suggestions! I'm either going to gut it and start over or try to save money so right now I'm torn. Notice how the refrigerator sticks out and the odd shape of the lay-out. We need to do the kitchen before we put in flooring through-out most of the house. I'm just lost any ideas would be helpful!! Thanks!
Image link:
If you haven't already, I suggest posting this on the "Discussions" side of Kitchens. This is the "Gallery" side that's more for finished kitchens and the like. The Discussions side of Kitchens is for on-topic discussions concerning kitchen remodels. You will most likely get many more responses over there.
Good luck!
