Transgene: Annual Results 2012 and Business Update Solid operational performance in 2012, in preparation of key milestones in 2013 with the possible start of two phase 3 clinical trials for our most advanced products Cash consumption in line with expectations and cash position of €92.9 million at end 2012 Business Wire STRASBOURG, France -- March 21, 2013 Regulatory News: Transgene SA (Paris:TNG) (Euronext Paris: FR0005175080) today announced the company's financial results for 2012 and provided a business update. The year 2012 was marked by the publication of a number of clinical results, by the start of important clinical trials, by the strategic partnership concluded with the EORTC, a leading cancer research cooperative group, and by the start of activities in China. "2012 was a year in which we substantially invested in clinical trials, key for the immediate future of Transgene" stated Philippe Archinard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Transgene. He added: "We now have excellent visibility on our next milestones and by the end of 2013 we should have the necessary clinical results to be able to decide the start of phase 3 studies, the last development phase before registration, for TG4010 in lung cancer and Pexa-Vec (JX594/TG6006) in liver cancer. We await the attainment of these milestones with a great deal of enthusiasm". The consolidated financial results for 2012 consisted mainly in a stable net loss of €43.2 million (to be compared with €43.6 million in 2011) and a cash consumption of €46.6 million (compared to €40.8 million in 2011). As of 31 December 2012, the company had €92.9 million in cash. Transgene expects a cash consumption of around €50 million in 2013. "2012 financial numbers are in line with our expectations" stated Stéphane Boissel, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Transgene. He added: "At the end of 2012, Transgene had a cash runway of close to two years". The company will host a conference call and webcast in English tomorrow, Friday, March 22^nd, at 02:30pm CET. The dial-in numbers are: +44(0)20 7136 2050 (UK) +33(0)1 70 99 43 01 (FR) +1646 254 3364 (US) Confirmation Code: 7934677 The weblink for the webcast is: http://www.media-server.com/m/p/yp2gm6vc Key2012 numbers: Annual consolidated financial statements for 2012 can be summarized as follows: *€13.1 million in revenue, compared with €14.4 million in 2011, *€48.7 million in R&D expenses, compared with €53.0 million in 2011, *€43.2 million in net loss, compared with €43.6 million in 2011, and *€46.6 million in cash consumption, compared with €40.8 million in 2011.

Key 2012 events and short term news-flow: In 2012, Transgene presented or published scientific and clinical data for 4 out of its 5 most advanced products: *Pexa-Vec (liver, colorectal and renal cancers): Clinical data obtained in liver cancer were presented at ILCA^1 (Berlin, September 2012). They illustrate the safety of the intravenous injection of Pexa-Vec followed by Sorefanib, the standard of care in the indication. This opens new perspectives for the clinical development of the product. Promising survival benefit data were also published in early 2013 in Nature Medicine. In a small group of patients (30), those data showed a doubling in average overall survival for patients having received high, therapeutic, dose of Pexa-Vec compared to patients having received low, placebo-like, dose of the product. *TG4040 (hepatitis C): During the EASL^2 congress of 2012 (Barcelona, April 2012), additional data from the phase 2b HCVac study were presented. They showed a prolongation of benefits of TG4040 under treatment. Primary endpoint of the trial was met. Final data will be orally presented by Transgene during the EASL congress of 2013 (Amsterdam, April 2013). An update on the TG4040 development strategy will then be made. *TG4001 (cancer of the oropharynx): Phase 2b data showing significant superior efficacy of the therapeutic vaccine over placebo in HPV-related CIN 2/3 cervical neoplasia patients were communicated in May 2012. Detailed data were then presented by Roche^3 in the context of the 28^th international papillomavirus conference (Puerto Rico, December 2012). Those data are not sufficient to move the product in phase 3 in this indication. However, they represent a strong proof of concept for the product and enabled Transgene to enter into a strategic collaboration with EORTC, a leading cancer research cooperative group, for the conduct of a large phase 2b evaluating TG4001 in combination with radio-chemotherapy in HPV-related cancer of the oropharynx. This study will be initiated in 2013 and the first patient is expected to be randomized in early 2014. *TG1050 (hepatitis B): During the EASL congress of 2012 (Barcelona, April 2012), first pre-clinical data with TG1050 were presented. They allowed us to move the product into IND enabling studies. Additional data will be presented during the EASL congress of 2013. TG1050 should enter clinical trials in 2014. Transgene intends to enter into a collaborative partnership with TG1050 before the start of clinical trials. In 2012, Transgene started important clinical trials for its two lead products, TG4010 (lung cancer) and Pexa-Vec (liver cancer). To date, around 70% of patients have been randomized in the phase 2b part of the phase 2b/3 trial with TG4010 in lung cancer. First data are expected in Q4 2013 and Novartis could exercise its option in late 2013 or early 2014. To date, around 60% of patients in the TRAVERSE study (phase 2 b trial with Pexa-Vec in second line advanced liver cancer, or HCC) have been randomized. This study should give its first data by the end of 2013. With its partners, including Jennerex, Inc., Transgene has also started (i) a phase 2a clinical trial evaluating an intravenous injection-only protocol in liver cancer patients as well as (ii) a phase 1/2 evaluating Pexa-Vec in combination with chemotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer. Data from the various ongoing clinical trials should enable the partners to decide on starting a phase 3 clinical trial by the end of 2013. A first patient in phase 3 could be randomized in early 2014. ^1 ILCA = International Liver Cancer Association. ^2 EASL = European Association for the Study of the Liver. ^3 Roche had exclusive rights to TG4001 until February 2011 when rights were granted back to Transgene. Roche is sponsor of the still ongoing clinical data. About Transgene: Transgene (NYSE-Euronext: TNG), a member of the Institut Mérieux Group, is a biopharmaceutical company. It creates, develops and manufactures targeted immunotherapeutics for the treatment of cancers and infectious diseases. Transgene's products are major technological breakthroughs.

The $10.0 million (€7.4 million) received from Novartis in March 2010 for the payment of the exclusive option for an exclusive license to TG4010, was spread over the expected duration period of the option. This period runs from signature date up to March 31, 2014. Revenue recognized on this option amounted to €1.4 million (€2.1 million in 2011). The balance (€1.2 million) will be recognized in revenue in 2013 and 2014. For year ending December 31, 2012, government financing for research expenditures are composed of subsidies received or accrued and research tax credit for the year 2012. Subsidies amounted to €0.7 million in 2012, compared with €1.0 million in 2011. In 2012, subsidies were related principally to the ADNA program (a program to develop biomarkers for new therapeutics), funded by French innovation agency OSEO. Transgene expects to cash in another €1.4 million in subsidies in relation to this program in the future (€3.0 million in revenue, as part of this amount was already cashed-in). Research tax credit amounted to €8.4 million in 2012 (€7.8 million in 2011). Net eligible expenses amounted to €27.6 million in 2012 (€26.3 million in 2011). Variation in net eligible expenses between 2011 and 2012 (+5%) does not reflect the change in research and development expenses (-8%). This is mainly explained by a significant decrease, between 2011 and 2012, in non-eligible expenses such as milestone payments to Jennerex, Inc. (zero in 2012 compared to €6.9 million in 2011). Retreated of these milestone payments, research and development expenses increased by €2.6 million (6%) between 2011 and 2012, mostly due to an increase in external expenses on clinical trials. Operating expenses: R&D expenses amounted to €48.7 million in 2012, compared with €53.0 million in 2011, a decrease of 8%. This decrease was mainly due to the absence of milestone payment to Jennerex, Inc. in 2012. The table below lists research and development expenses per nature of expense: In millions of euros 12/31/2012 12/31/2011 Variation Personnel costs 19.5 18.9 +3% Share-based payments 0.7 1.1 -36% Intellectual property expenses and 1.6 9.2 -83% license costs External costs on clinical projects 11.7 8.6 +36% External costs on other projects 3.2 3.9 -18% Operating costs 9.2 8.6 +7% Depreciation, amortization and 2.8 2.7 +4% provisions Research and development expenses 48.7 53.0 -8% R&D staff costs amounted to €19.5 million in 2012, compared to €18.9 million in 2011. This change (+3%) is explained by an increase in salaries (2% in average) as well as by an increase in headcount (247 FTE in 2012 vs. 242 in 2011). External intellectual property and licensing costs amounted to €1.6 million in 2012, compared to €9.2 million in 2011. This significant decrease is mostly explained by the absence of payments made or due to Jennerex, Inc. in 2012 (€6.9 million in 2011 for clinical and production milestone achieved in 2011 with Pexa-Vec). External expenses on clinical trials amounted to €11.7 million in 2012, compared to €8.6 million in 2011. This increase (+36%) is explained by clinical advancement in 2012 of our two most advanced products: start of patient recruitment in the phase 2b part of a large phase 2b/3 clinical trial with TG4010 in lung cancer (€6.1 million in 2012 vs. €3.1 million in 2011) and patients recruitment in the TRAVERSE phase 2b clinical trial and other clinical trials with Pexa-Vec (€2.7million in 2012 vs. €0.9 million in 2011). External expenses on other projects, including research, pre-clinical and industrial projects, amounted to €3.2 million in 2012, to be compared with €3.9 million in 2011. This change is mostly explained by a decrease in outsourcing activities on industrial development projects, in particular for the development of novel manufacturing processes. Internal/structure costs are expenses related to operating research and production facilities, including but not limited to cost of the finance lease, maintenance costs and supply of laboratory materials. These costs amounted to €9.2 million in 2012, compared to €8.6 million in 2011. This change is mostly explained by an increase in maintenance and qualification costs of our production unit. This evolution is mostly driven by regulatory requirements. The table below lists the general and administrative expenses per nature of expense: In millions of euros 31/12/2012 31/12/2011 Variation Personnel costs 2.7 2.7 N/S Share-based payments 0.2 0.4 N/S Fees and administrative expenses 2.6 2.1 +24% Other fixed costs 1.0 0.9 +11% Depreciation, amortization and 0.1 0.1 N/S provisions Fixed costs 6.6 6.2 +6% G&A staff costs amounted to €2.7 million in 2012, unchanged, reflecting a stable headcount. Advisory and management fees amounted to €2.6 million in 2012, compared with €2.1 million euros in 2011. Interest income and (expenses), net: Interest expenses, net of interest income, amounted to €0.6 million in 2012 (income of €1.4 million in 2011). Interest income on investments amounted to €0.5 million in 2012 (€1.9 million in 2011). This change is explained by a decrease in average invested amounts (€115 million in 2012 vs. €159 million in 2011), as well as by a decrease in monetary market rates (3-month Euribor average at 0.57% in 2012, compared to 1.39% in 2011). Interest expenses were mostly related to the interest on lease financing of the main premises of Transgene (€0.4 million in 2012, unchanged). Net loss: Net loss amounted to €43.2 million in 2012, compared with €43.6 million in 2011. Net loss per share amounted to €1.36 in 2012 (€1.38 per share in 2011). Investments: Investment in tangible and intangible assets amounted to €2.0 million in 2012, compared with €3.8 million in 2011. Transgene also invested €3.8 million in Transgene Tasly (Tianjin) Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd, including €2.6 million in cash payment and €1.2 million in contribution in intellectual property rights related to TG3003 product for the Transgene Tasly (Tianjin) Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd area which is China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macao. Borrowings and conditional subsidies: In 2012, Transgene received €3.1 million in conditional subsidies from OSEO in relation to the ADNA program (see above). The Company expects to receive another €6.3 million in conditional loans up to the end of this program (2016). Cash, cash equivalents and other financial assets: Cash is invested primarily in short term mutual funds or in a cash pooling managed by the Institut Mérieux, its controlling shareholder. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had €92.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and other financial assets, compared with €139.5 million as of December 31, 2011. Elements of cash flow: Excluding the investment made in the equity capital of Transgene Tasly (Tianjin) Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd., cash consumption amounted to €44.0 million in 2012 (€39.6 million in 2011). Including the €2.6 million investment made in the equity capital of Transgene Tasly (Tianjin) Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd., cash consumption of Transgene amounted to €46.6 million in 2012. Post-closing events: In March 2013, Jennerex, Inc. started a fundraising is the form of a rights issue to its shareholders, including Transgene. The contemplated fundraising is offered at a price per share which is below what Transgene has retained for its equity stake in Jennerex, Inc. in its balance sheet. Given its nature, i.e. a rights issue, Transgene considers that the contemplated fundraising does not reflect Jennerex' fair value, Inc. as of December 31, 2012. This transaction was not completed at the time Transgene's board of directors of approved these financial statements.

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
View Single Post

Fleet Captain
Re: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
King Daniel Into Darkness wrote:
So I take it you believe Spock and McCoy in TOS genuinely were enemies? Kirk and Spock bicker like an old married couple in ID (limited contact? Spock's been his first officer for a year!), but both clearly hold affection for each other, as did Spock and McCoy in the classic show.
They bicker. Kirk hits Spock on the shoulder--for no reason. That's all we know. We don't
anything. Bones had moments where he confessed to Kirk his appreciation of Spock--cared for him. But the touchstones of their relationship aren't there.
Spock's death scene tied the movie together--the differences between Kirk (lie and cheat out of death) and Spock (admit defeat, limit the damage, especially if it's only one person). It talked of their friendship, calling back to the cabin scene, it talked of their friendship long before he was killed off. The closest we get in this movie?
"Do you know why I went back for you?"
No, I don't. Spock goes after Kirk for reprogramming the simulator to beat the Kobiashi Maru. He argues with Spock until Spock takes his side. He gets booted off the ship because Spock feels he is a liability (a married couple?). Kirk emotionally compromised Spock, after arguing with him, to get command so he could go after Nero and not rejoin the rest of the fleet. Spock told him he was going with him to Nero's ship. He gets Spock to take command of the Red Matter ship. Kirk, then saves Spock's life. He complains that Spock wrote a report that contradicted the Captain's Log. He gets mad because Spock doesn't
anything. He wants to "rip his bangs off." Kirk says that he did what Spock would do when he's explaining why he sacrificed his life. Then Spock goes ape and tries to kill Khan for killing Kirk.
Now, does that sound like they had any time to bond? Maybe, at the most, on Nero's ship. But there's nothing in what we see, except to assume that they bonded because we've seen Star Trek before, for why they have bonded. Instead of having Leonard Nimoy talking to Zachary Quinto in the final scenes of Star Trek, maybe they should've had a scene with Kirk expressing to Bones his feelings. Or maybe Spock starts to cry when all of this hits him and Kirk comforts him. Or maybe Kirk is the one crying, maybe realizing he's unprepared to be Captain.
But there's nothing.

Jules Bianchi's career could just be set to take off after the Frenchman claimed both his and the Marussia team's first points in Formula One during a frantic Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday.
Bianchi, racing in his second season of F1, produced a fine drive from last on the grid – owing to a penalty for an enforced gearbox change on Saturday – to finish ninth, surviving two five-second stop/go penalties in what was a race of attrition around the streets of Monte Carlo.
"It felt like a victory to me," Bianchi told Germany's Auto Motor und Sport after the race. "Even if it does not mean so much for others, for us this ninth place is like a win."
The result, which moves Marussia into ninth in the constructors' championship, ahead of the still pointless Sauber, could be worth millions of dollars in prize money to the Ferrari-powered team come the end of the season.
But, it could also cost the Banbury-based outfit its star turn, with Bianchi admitting after the race that his Monaco result could be the catalyst to propel him into a seat with a top team in the future, a move he feels he is ready for.
"It can only help," he said, "but as for the future, we will have to see as the season progresses. I do feel ready for a top team."
Fernando Alonso, who started his own Formula One career racing with the perennial back-markers Minardi in 2001, praised the Ferrari junior star, who he hopes will be able to use his Monaco result to progress up the grid in 2015.
"It's fantastic and I am happy for him," said Alonso. "Jules is not only a Ferrari Academy guy, he is also a friend.
"We spend a lot of time together in Maranello, we play football, we cycle, [and] we travel together for some races.
"I am extremely happy for him, [and] very proud for what this result will mean for his career.
"I have no doubts it will be a good career, but hopefully with this result he can have a more competitive car next year and show his talents even more."
Marussia's Team Principal John Booth, who has worked with Bianchi since the Frenchman joined the team at short notice ahead of the 2013 season, echoed the praise of Alonso, and insisted that the 24-year-old was already prepared to make the step up to the senior Ferrari squad if the Scuderia were to come calling at the end of the season, with Kimi Raikkonen still yet to produce his best form since making his return to Ferrari.
"I think he's ready to go now. If they [Ferrari] need him, I think he's ready to go," he told Reuters. "I think he's got a long career in F1. Absolute top driver."
By virtue of Bianchi's points, Marussia's rivals Caterham are now the sole holders of the ignominious record of the most races entered by a team without scoring an F1 point, the Leafield-based squad having made its debut alongside Marussia – then Virgin Racing – at the Bahrain Grand Prix in 2010.

Time Attack is about the purest a form of motorsport you can get. Take a car, strip it of everything unnecessary, spot weld anything you lay eyes on, throw in the required safety equipment and data systems, then couple the biggest, baddest engine to a close ratio gearbox (sequential preferred), forget the term "quality ride," and then get the meanest driver you can find. One lap, one time, one winner. Exponentially awesome.

A 26-year-old man in Southwest Alaska apparently shot and killed himself Friday evening as police were trying to pull him over following reports that his wife was missing, police said.
Bristol Bay Borough Chief of Police Rodney Enevoldsen said in a written statement that Kyle Dale William Anderson "took his own life by an apparent self inflicted gunshot" after officers from his department attempted a traffic stop.
Anderson's wife, 24-year-old Reanna Anderson, was reported missing by her mother on Friday, Enevoldsen said. Both Reanna and Kyle Anderson are from King Salmon, a small town at the northeast end of the Alaska Peninsula.
Reanna Anderson's last known location was her residence in King Salmon on Tuesday, Enevoldsen said in an interview.
The Bristol Bay Borough Police Department is searching for her, along with the Alaska Wildlife Troopers, Katmai National Park Rangers, and a "large number of community volunteers," Enevoldsen said in the statement. He declined to provide any additional details about the case.
Police are asking anyone who was in contact with Reanna Anderson after 6 p.m. on Tuesday to call the Bristol Bay Borough Police Department at 907-246-4222.

There is already a request to be able to limit the
number of new entries in each feed, but until that is
available, it would be nice to have a list of the feeds
at the top of the Channels Home web page just below
where it says "Below are the newest items from your XXX
channels..." that are links to the beginning of each feed.
The list of feeds could be alphabetical (that is, not
in the order of the actual feeds themselves as they are
in order of "freshest" material). They just jump
further down to the anchor at the beginning of that feed.

I've done this. Is this enough of a requested feature to

submit the patch, or however it is done.

Derek McInnes was also ordered off for pushing Brown, who is working for free for the administration-hit club, after 17-year-old substitute McGhee headed Hearts 2-1 ahead in the 88th minute following an error from Nicky Weaver.
Referee Alan Muir also dismissed Hearts left-back Kevin McHattie for a challenge on Calvin Zola midway through the second half, which allowed Niall McGinn to convert a penalty and cancel out Jamie Walker's 17th-minute opener.
Locke felt the passion on display at Tynecastle was a good advert for the Scottish Premiership as Hearts knocked the seventh point off their 15-point penalty.
Locke said: "The technical areas aren't exactly a million miles apart. You think you are a bit harshly done by and then you score a winning goal. Anybody that doesn't show a bit of passion, questions would be asked.
"I didn't think Billy did a lot wrong. His momentum took him into their technical area. I didn't think he could move that quickly. It's something out of nothing. We will go and have a beer with Derek now and it will be forgotten.
"The game was action-packed and I think we should be talking about how good a game it was with two teams who were desperate to get three points. There was a lot of quality on both sides and I think we should be talking about that rather than Basher Brown."
McInnes had not spoken to Brown by the time he spoke to the press.
"I'm disappointed," the Dons boss said. "I have never seen a member of staff come into the opposition's technical area to celebrate a goal the way he did.
"But as soon as I put my arms on him to try and push him back, I am guilty. I have apologised to the referee. I am disappointed in myself but I was surprised at the reaction."
Both managers were reluctant to give definitive views on two other talking points - the penalty and another incident which saw Peter Pawlett booked for diving when Walker challenged him in the box - as they had not seen the replays.
Locke, who felt the second incident was a penalty, disagreed with the spot-kick that was given.
"I would need to see it again but from where I was I felt it was harsh, I felt he got the ball," he said. "But at Partick I thought it was a harsh penalty and when I saw it again I thought Bobby Madden was spot-on."
McInnes, who rued his side's wasted chances in the first half and their defending at both goals, said: "I think McHattie has put his arms round him. For me it looked a penalty kick and the right decision.
"Peter felt he was caught. My initial reaction from real speed was it was a penalty. I know he has got a reputation that has gone before him at times and maybe this is a case of this today.
"I do feel Peter Pawlett was outstanding and has been since the start of the season. I will be able to make a better comment on that when I have seen it."
Locke praised everyone at the club for their commitment after they cut the deficit at the bottom of the league to nine points.
"It was a fantastic effort from everyone," he said. "We go down to 10 men and you think if it's a point it will be a great result.
"But it's a good ball in and big Jordan peeled round to the back stick and it's a great header. He is 17 years old but I had no qualms about putting him on, he is a fantastic football player and he's going to have a big future."

County parks are funded by and owned by the county. The county helps funded these parks with money it makes in fees and other sales. In Clark county annual timber sales is a large contributor. Clark county owns over 100,000 acres of forest and the revenue generated by selling the harvested trees last year was over 2 million dollars. Some of that money is used to funded local campgrounds and parks.

January News Letter
Building Investigations
As you all have heard, the school referendum passed and that means updates to the high school and planning for a new elementary building. The topic of buildings, energy and efficiencies that would be looked at with this passing directly relate to our first semester area of focus. One specific student, Austin Janowski, centered his project on the feat of getting involved with the planning!
Austin, a Junior in BRAGS, was invited to join the committee that was to review the various aspects of changes that would happen at the High School.

December 2014 News Letter
Kicking Off a New Year
Every year the direction of topics at BRAGS is set according to the student's interests and curriculum. We try to cover topics related to all majors: sustainable agriculture, sustainable lifestyles, resource management and green technologies. This year's kick-off topics related to Energy; how we use it, the types of energy and ways to conserve energy or save money!
Students have been able to look at the many resources used for energy including oil, coal, solar, wind, hydro and more! Along with readings, they have toured facilities in the city of BRF and the Vernon Co Landfill where they learned many ways that energy is being thrown away("wasted") or used to re-make new items!
Anytime you talk about energy, you must consider the habitats that are affected by the extraction or use of the energy sources. That is why student have been working to create "mini" presentations about various habitats and species. As we enter quarter 2, the students are gearing up to discuss 2 separate habitats. They will have done dissections on various species and will create habitats in the class so live examples can be shared with Elementary students before break! One thing we feel is key to the mastery of a topic is being able to present and teach others about it!

"Under the last administration, as well as this one, it has been United States policy not [emphasis added] to build a missile defense that would render useless Russia's nuclear capabilities... That, in our view as well as theirs, would be enormously destabilizing, not to mention unbelievably expensive."
Why is this the case? Because if the United States somehow were to develop a missile defense system that Russia perceived as a threat -- in that it would allow the United States to attack Russia with impunity -- Moscow would simply increase its offensive forces, sparking a costly new arms race in the process. In addition, Moscow would be more likely to launch quickly in a crisis, fearful that its nuclear forces would otherwise be wiped out by a combination of U.S. offenses and defenses. Or, as Gates puts it, it would be enormously destabilizing and unbelievably expensive.
So, unless Krauthammer and other missile defense advocates are envisioning a world-straddling missile defense system that can knock out Russia's nuclear weapons, there need be no connection between missile defense and further nuclear arms reductions. If they are seeking such a system, they should admit it. And they should give some sense of how they think it could work (is it even technologically feasible?), what it would cost, and how they think Moscow would react.
In a real, evidence-based approach, the Obama administration is developing a multi-phased missile defense system in Europe that is focused on blunting the threat of Iranian medium-range missiles. This system poses no threat to Russia, so, as noted above, should not stand in the way of further arms reductions. Of course, that won't keep Krauthammer and company from crying wolf, but we should ignore them, and explain to the public why they should ignore them as well.
While the missile defense debate will undoubtedly rear its ugly head again, the real question is whether the Obama administration will move quickly and vigorously towards further reducing the nuclear danger, either by pursuing a follow-on agreement with Russia or seeking ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. If properly educated, voters would support such a move. And it makes sense to move now, when the opposition is weakened. Who, for example, is as afraid of Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) now as they were when he seemed to hold the fate of the New START treaty in his hands? The treaty passed without him, and he has come down a peg or two politically as a result. He will be an impediment to future agreements, but not necessarily an immovable one. So, as much as Kyl would like New START to be "the last arms control agreement for a while," his ability to make that happen is much diminished.
It would make sense to go on the offensive now, and not let the anti-arms control invective that is sure to come from a number of Republican presidential candidates get any traction. Potential presidential contender Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) has already tried to re-frame the issue by asserting that "I fear that the New START treaty will serve as another data point in a narrative of weakness, pursuing diplomacy for its own sake or indulging in a utopian dream of a world without nuclear weapons divorced from hard reality." Expect similar rhetoric from Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, and other Republican presidential hopefuls. By reiterating the national security benefits of New START -- backed by the authority of six former Republican secretaries of state, seven former commanders of U.S. nuclear forces, and the other political and national security leaders who supported the treaty - the Obama administration and its allies can deflate the other side's anti-arms control rhetoric while pursuing further steps to reduce global nuclear arsenals. This is no time to sit still.

2008 Pontiac Solstice Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 14 reviews
The 2008 Pontiac Solstice's sporty styling belies its low sticker price. With exterior touches more like those of a luxury model than a compact car, this two-seater convertible trumps the Mazda Miata and other competitors in the looks department.
When it comes to performance, though, the '08 Pontiac Solstice isn't quite so stellar. Although the GXP trim offers a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4 engine with a healthy 260-horsepower output, reviewers complain that it suffers from unresponsive handling and sloppy control. And the base model's engine, a 2.4-liter, 177-horsepower inline-4, feels underpowered to many drivers.
Another complaint that has dogged the 2008 Solstice is its lack of passenger space. The manufacturer's spec sheet pegs the hip room and leg room in the cabin at a touch over 50 inches, which feels like tight quarters by U.S. standards. (On the other hand, if you have fond memories of the Fiat Spyder or MG Midget, the Solstice will seem spacious in comparison.)
Fuel efficiency is pretty decent, with EPA fuel economy estimates of 25 mpg city, 31 mpg highway. And did I mention the low selling price? Ultimately, that's probably what's going to win people over to the Solstice: It's a great-looking car at a great price, which may be enough to earn it a loyal following.

Hi everyone!
Let me first say that I am not a cyclist, but I believe that Eastern Oregon is the perfect place for you to take that perfect ride. If I were a cyclist, I know this is the area where I would want to spend some time.
Our roads through the mountains have very little traffic, with awesome scenery.
Sumpter is located 50 miles East of John Day, and 30 miles West of Baker City, and is on the Ekhorn Scenic Byway.
Sumpter has a Hostel (styled after an 1880's Military Barracks), for you to overnight at.
If you have never heard of Sumpter, Oregon, take a look at this: www.historicsumpter.com
We just love having cyclists visit us!
Happy riding!

White House Cleanses Israel from Website
By DANIEL HALPER:
At 3:22 p.m., I posted this photo of Vice President Joe Biden and Shimon Peres, with an accompanying caption that indicated it had been taken last year in Jerusalem, Israel:
The point of posting the photo was to show that, although the State Department refuses to say that Jerusalem is in Israel, even the White House website acknowledges this elementary truth (at least for Western Jerusalem, west of the 1949 armistic lines). But not any more. Within two hours of posting, the White House has apparently gone through its website, cleansing any reference to Jerusalem as being in Israel.
Canada's PM, Stephen Harper, has gone out of his way to stand with Israel. The UK, US and most European nations, especially the EU nations, have taken every opportunity to undermine Israel. Of ALL these nations, which one is sailing through the current economic and social morass relatively unscathed?

Love From Australia Suede Over-the-Knee Boot: Love It or Hate It?
by Fashion
Like us on Facebook
UGG boots are bulky enough with all that thick shearling, but when you add ribbons and more height, it's just too much. I can't see myself, or anyone else for that matter, pulling off Love From Australia's Vixen Suede Over-the-Knee Boot ($400). In Antarctica they might come in handy, but I'd choose cold over tacky any day. Are you with me?

Apparently everyone commenting has never lived in consistent below zero weather! I would LOVE these! Living in the city, walking everywhere, wearing 2 scarfs, hat, earmuffs, hand and feet pack warmers, and knit legwramers over your jeans that go into your boots so you dont get frost bite on your way to work, those boots look pretty amazing to me! I would love to have boots that go under my coat to keep me insulated! Thats what Uggs and these boots are made for keeping girls who live in the cold warm and from losing toes! Theyre not to be worn with skirts and dresses in California or somewhere warm, that has and always will be tacky!
lizlee89 7 years
I'm so tired of UGGS and, even though I love over-the-knee boots, these are just awful...
htiduj 7 years
ok, i would never pay the $400 for them...but i have to say that i don't think they are that bad. obviously uggs are always going to be on the ugly side. but they really do keep your feet warm..and i really like not having to wear socks with them. so i say, these can be really great for one of those freezing, snowy, wind chill below zero days. id rather wear these tall uggs, and wear a shorter coat, than regular uggs and my loonnng crazy coat. (it just looks cuter). but they could be a pain to get on and off...
mustepullo 7 years
Don't like them.

well.....i guess i can wear em when i'm freezing to death.

i love how warm and comfy UGGs are in cold weather; however i can't imagine how attractive it would be putting these boots on and taking them off!
SinYa 7 years
I think they look kinda cute in their own way. I mean if you are4 going to somewhere cold ... would you rather wear Uggs or some thicker, tackier boots?

over the knees? eh not quite my style, love the color of the boots and the wrapround suede string
agrepina 7 years
i loveee my uggs..but these are a little too much
lizzylu49 7 years
I don't have a problem with them, but I also don't have a problem with regular Uggs, as long as they aren't worn with skirts. Those days have passed! I still wear mine to get a morning Starbucks or if I'm running errands at night.

How to describe Nobuhiko Obayashi's indescribable 1977 movie HOUSE (Hausu)? As a psychedelic ghost tale? A stream-of-consciousness bedtime story? An episode of Scooby-Doo as directed by Mario Bava? Any of the above will do for this hallucinatory head trip about a schoolgirl who travels with six classmates to her ailing aunt's creaky country home and comes face-to-face with evil spirits, a demonic house cat, a bloodthirsty piano, and other ghoulish visions, all realized by Obayashi via a series of mattes, animation, and collage effects. Equal parts absurd and nightmarish, HOUSE might have been beamed to Earth from some other planet. Never before available on home video in the United States, it's one of the most exciting cult discoveries in years.
Infamous Japanese whatsit House is the ultimate 1970s artifact. The animated opening recalls The Rocky Horror Picture Show, while former ad man Nobuhiko Obayashi extends the anything-goes impression through freeze frames, painted backdrops, and old-timey flashbacks. He starts by introducing schoolgirls Fantasy (Kumiko Ohba) and Gorgeous (Kimiko Ikegami) to groovy H.R. Pufnstuf-style music. Then Gorgeous's widowed father presents his new bride, Ryôko (Haruko Wanibuchi), who enters like Joan Crawford in a flowing white gown. Afterward, Gorgeous invites Fantasy, Melody, Kung Fu, Prof, Sweet, and Mac to her aunt's house for the summer. Little does she know that Ryôko plans to crash the party.
While they gather at the train station, the film slips into slapstick Monkees territory: a shoemaker croons as Fantasy's crush object, Mr. Tôgô (Kiyohiko Ozaki), trips over Gorgeous's green-eyed cat, Blanche. The girls make it to the country without incident, but the moment they arrive at the cobweb-covered estate, freaky things start happening: Auntie (Yôko Minamida) and Blanche, for instance, have met before. The ladies delight in the weirdness, enjoying a meal and exploring the grounds, but then Mac disappears. Auntie and Blanche, meanwhile, find novel ways to entertain themselves. Soon, mirrors are cracking, mattresses are flying, blood is flowing, and a piano goes berserk. There's only so much the girls can do, so they pin their hopes on Tôgô--and his sideburns--to set things right.
House arrives for the first time in the United States with a testimonial from House of the Devil director Ti West, who declares it "one of the most original films I've ever seen"; Emotion, an experimental short; and a featurette in which Obayashi credits his daughter, Chigumi, for several plot points. Fans of Carrie, Suspiria, The Evil Dead, and Pee-Wee's Playhouse: meet your new cinematic obsession. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

This Woodcut from 19th Century Japan Reveals Deep LOLcat History
This video is an animation based on a Japanese woodcut called "Popular Hotspring Spa (of Cats)." It's from 1880, but artist Utagawa Yoshifuji's imaginary world of spa cats looks like something that's unfolding at the intersection of LOLcat and internetville. »

Celtics coach Doc Rivers has said surviving the team's injuries at center this season has been like plugging a dam with bubble gum. The dam finally got some fortification yesterday.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers has said surviving the team's injuries at center this season has been like plugging a dam with bubble gum.
The dam finally got some fortification yesterday.
Jermaine O'Neal went through the entire practice with limited soreness in his left knee, and said he will return to the lineup either tonight against the 76ers (CSN, 7:30 p.m.) or Christmas Day in Orlando. Kendrick Perkins also made an unexpected return and ran the skeleton offense for the first time since offseason right knee surgery, throwing down a couple of dunks, and he said he could be back as soon as late January.
While Rivers could still be in a precarious spot tonight if Jermaine O'Neal can't go and he's left with Semih Erden (shoulder) and Shaquille O'Neal (calf) one bump away from a short night, it was encouraging to see help on the horizon.
"At some point I'm going to play this week," said Jermaine O'Neal, who pinned his chances of playing tonight for the first time after missing 18 games at 50 percent. "I would say it's a little more (about) conditioning. I can help the team. For how long, I don't know."
The Celtics have survived injuries to both O'Neals, as well as Erden's shoulder that will eventually need surgery, during their 13-game win streak. But there have been times when a defensive presence in the post like Jermaine O'Neal or Perkins has been sorely missed.
Amar'e Stoudemire torched the Celtics for 39 points on 15-for-22 shooting last Wednesday, and Rivers reluctantly had to switch Kevin Garnett to guard the center spot when Glen Davis proved too short and Erden too inexperienced to stick with Stoudemire. With a rejuvenated Elton Brand in town with Philadelphia tonight, and Dwight Howard looming on Christmas, Jermaine O'Neal's interior defense would be a timely addition.
"I can alter some shots," he said. "I can get some rebounds. I think that's something that you don't really need chemistry (with the team) and you don't need rhythm (to do). I think that's what Doc is expecting from me."
As the coach walked by while O'Neal was speaking with reporters, he smiled and hollered, "Don't you have to play a game first before you do media?"
O'Neal said he would like to oblige, adding he realizes he will have to work his way back into shape on the fly.
"We don't have a ton of practices, so you can't wait until you have five good practices under your belt," he said. "I feel like it's doable and feel like I'm close. I'm going to talk with the training staff, but I feel like we've done enough work to protect the knee.
Page 2 of 2 - "Conditioning-wise I'm not going to be in tip-top shape. It isn't going to happen because we don't have enough practices."
O'Neal, who will wear a brace to protect the knee, went through his first full practice Saturday. The Celtics are not slated to work out again until Christmas Eve and will likely have only one practice during the road trip before they return to TD Garden on New Year's Eve against New Orleans.
When they begin a stretch of 10 home dates in 12 games over a 23-day stretch on Jan. 3 - allowing for plenty of practice time - the O'Neals may have some company on the practice floor from Perkins. He had an MRI late last week that was clean and was allowed to do limited work yesterday. Perkins said he will likely have another MRI right after Jan. 1 that could open the door to contact workouts.
He added that he's been told he could return as early as late January after initially targeting the All-Star break. Yesterday was a step in that direction.
"I got up and down with the guys a little bit and felt pretty good," Perkins said. "I went over the plays, got in a little rhythm. It was good to be out there."
Rivers said it was the most Perkins has done since tearing his ACL in Game 6 of the NBA Finals.
"Perk looked good for what he did," the coach said. "He's in great shape for one thing and he's worked so hard."
While Perkins has done extensive running and biking to keep himself in condition, he's yet to cut with the knee or bang inside. He said he was prepared to be worried about that yesterday, but wasn't.
"That was kind of surprising," he said. "A couple of times I did like a pick-and-roll, and went up on a dunk, and didn't even think about it. I thought about it after I did it and thought it might be all right after all."
