Reviewer: don
I now have a propane version and a natural gas version of this grill. Even though BTU's for natural gas are lower it seems to get hotter than the propane version. Good space for lots of food and indirect grilling of ribs. Price was 20% less than lowes and delivery was free to my doorstep which is nice considering this thing weighs close to 300 pounds.

Objectives :
It is presumed that the student has some familiarity with Indian society by virtue of the fact that he is
a member of it and that he has observed and experienced some facets of it. However, this familiarity is likely
to be superficial, selective and rather fragmentary. The course is aimed at rectifying these limitations by
presenting a comprehensive, integrated and empirically - based profile of Indian society.
The continuity between the present and the past is an evident feature of Indian society. Though this
continuity is reflected in the structure of the course, the focus is on the contemporary Indian society. It is
hoped that the sociological perspective on Indian society presented in this course will also enable students
to gain a better understanding of their own situation and region.

Objectives :
Society in India today is undergoing rapid and massive changes. Many of the changes are such that they tend to call into question the ages - old social norms and practices, thus giving rise to some critical social issues and problems.
This course is designed to identify and analyze some of such emerging social issues and problems from sociological perspective. In the interest of systematic ordering the issue and problems have been classified into four sets : structural, familiar developmental and disorganization.
The course seeks to go beyond the commonsense understanding of the prevailing social issues and problems in order to project them into their structure context. Accordingly, it focuses on their structural linkages and interrelationships.
Hence the objectives of the course are to sensitize the student to the emerging social issues and problems of contemporary India, enable them to acquire sociological understanding of these issues and problems over and above their commonsense understanding, empower them to deal with these issues and problems and to serve as change agents both in governmental and non - governmental organizations.

Pedagogy :
The course requires a pedagogy that seeks to project the issues and problems contemporary India in a
social structural perspective. For this purpose. the students have to be sensitized to the structural roots of the
problems as well as to the effects of the problems on the existing social structure. In order to give the students
a sympathy understanding of the problems, it will be rewarding to use the methodology of role playing. The students may also encouraged to make on the spot observations of the problems wherever and wherever they
find the recurrence of these problems.

Objectives :
To acquaint the undergraduate student with the basic concepts in family and kinship studies and demon-
strate how structural principles are used by societies in a consistent logical way to organize groups and categories and infuse them with cultural meanings so that the societal objectives of social integration, social
reproduction and social continuity are realized. The ubiquity of marriage, family and kinship and the variation in
their use of structural and cultural principals necessitates a comparative approach to their study. Within India
the sharp regional variations in kinship and marriage bring home the meaning and significance of cultural diversity and pluralism.

South Central Power Ignites Preschool Learning
Child Care parent Jay Johnson, a Dispatching staff member with South Central Power, along with Energy Advisor, Rod Evans, recently presented the Preschool and Child Care with a lesson on electricity. Mr. Evans came equipped with a miniature town set and demonstrated the dangers of fallen power lines in the neighborhood, explained why birds can safely perch on power lines, and discussed power safety and how electricity works.
According to the children, the best part of Mr. Evans and Mr. Johnson's visit was when Freddy's kite got caught in the power lines and caught on fire!
Thank you for giving our kids an exciting, hands-on lesson. We appreciate you sharing your God-given light with the Fairfield Christian Academy Preschool and Child Care!

World Briefing | Americas: Cuba: Europeans Honor Dissident
The European Parliament awarded the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought to Oswaldo Payá, a dissident who leads a civic movement for political reform in Cuba. The award, which will be presented in December, recognized him for seeking peaceful change through a petition drive known as the Varela Project. The Cuban government, which has yet to respond to Mr. Paya's request for a referendum on human rights, previously prohibited him from traveling to the United States to receive an honor from the...

World Briefing | Americas: Cuba: Government Marshals Support
The Communist Party newspaper said 7.4 million Cubans -- of a population of a little more than 11 million -- had signed a petition that says the Communist state is "untouchable. " The petition drive was President Fidel Castro's response to the Varela Project, an opposition movement that is seeking a referendum on greater individual and political freedoms. Opponents noted that many people felt pressure to sign since signatures were collected by local committees used to keep tabs on neighborhood...

Cubans Petition for Change
A leading advocate for democracy delivered more than 14,000 signatures to the Cuban National Assembly on Friday, demanding a referendum on political changes, just six months after Fidel Castro's crackdown on dissenters. This is the second straight year that the activist, Oswaldo Payá, delivered petition signatures as part of the Varela Project, the biggest homegrown, nonviolent campaign for change in Cuba. Last year, he delivered 11,020 signatures. "Hope is reborn," Mr. Payá said Friday.

Foreign Policy And the Candidates
To the Editor: Quoting John Kerry, who called the Varela Project, a Cuban dissident movement, "counterproductive," David Brooks calls on us to imagine all kind of bad things resulting from Mr. Kerry's "realism" ("a thousand excuses for inaction") if he happens to be elected. Well, we have only two choices, and we don't have to "imagine" the alternative. I hope that more people find President Bush's romanticism (a rush to action) more counterproductive than Mr. Kerry's realism.

2 Cuban Dissidents Are Sent to Prison
A Cuban court sentenced two Cuban dissidents to 18 months in prison today for advocating political reforms, said the leader of the reform movement, Oswaldo Paya. Jesús Mustafa, 58, and Robert Montero, 32, were found guilty of resisting authority in a scuffle with the police in December in their hometown, Palma Soriano, in the eastern province of Santiago de Cuba. The men were local organizers of the Varela Project, a drive begun by Mr. Paya to gather signatures calling for a referendum on civil rights under President Fidel...

A Cuban Dissident Is Defiant After Crackdown Nets Dozens
Although dozens of his colleagues are imprisoned and his house is under police surveillance, Oswaldo Payá vowed today that his civic movement to bring reforms to Cuba would not be crushed. Mr. Payá, the organizer of the Varela Project, a petition drive signed by more than 11,000 people seeking a referendum on personal, political and economic rights, is among a handful of dissidents who remain free after a crackdown last week by the Cuban authorities. He said about 80 people -- independent...

Cuba Can't Ignore a Dissident It Calls Insignificant
For someone the Cuban government disparages as insignificant, Oswaldo Payá has been attracting a great deal of international attention. Politicians and leaders in the United States and Europe praise him for leading the Varela Project, a petition drive that seeks a referendum on whether there should be greater personal and political freedoms in Cuba. The Czech president, Vaclav Havel, proposed Mr. Payá for the Nobel Peace Prize. The National Democratic Institute in Washington recently bestowed its...

Kerry's Cruel Realism
Sometimes in the unscripted moments of a campaign, when the handlers are away, a candidate shows his true nature. Earlier this month, Andres Oppenheimer of The Miami Herald asked John Kerry what he thought of something called the Varela Project. Kerry said it was "counterproductive. " It's necessary to try other approaches, he added. The Varela Project happens to be one of the most inspiring democracy movements in the world today. It is being led by a Cuban dissident named Oswaldo Payá, who has spent his life trying to topple Castro's...

Carter Urges Bush to Reject Plan to Aid Cuba Dissidents
As the Bush administration prepares to announce a more aggressive policy against President Fidel Castro that could include channeling resources to dissidents, former President Jimmy Carter strongly warned today that such a move would be counterproductive. On the final day of a six-day visit, Mr. Carter said at a news conference this morning that dissidents he met with on Thursday "expressed deep concerns" that any direct help from the United States would help Mr. Castro discredit their efforts.

Crackdown Is Called a Major Setback for Cuban Dissidents
Opponents of President Fidel Castro said today that the recent government crackdown had knocked them to their knees, but that they expected to capitalize on growing public discontent to keep their movement alive. Dissidents who were not imprisoned during the wave of repression acknowledged that their fragile organizations were left leaderless by the roundup of 75 dissidents, activists and independent journalists a month ago. "The dissident movement is practically paralyzed," said Vladimiro Roca, who was freed last...

Cuba Arrests More Dissidents Amid Outcry
Cuban authorities continued their islandwide roundup of dissidents, journalists and other opposition figures today, even as representatives of Latin American nations introduced a resolution at the United Nations Human Rights Commission condemning the country's human rights record. Diplomats and dissidents said at least 72 people, and possibly as many as 87, have been arrested since the crackdown began on Tuesday. They face criminal charges for collaborating with American diplomats opposed to President Fidel Castro.

Dissident Accuses Cuba of Manipulating Fear of U.S. Invasion
Cuba's leading dissident faulted his government today for manipulating fears of an invasion by the United States to justify its harsh line on opposition. Oswaldo Payá, the leader of the Varela Project petition drive seeking personal and political freedoms, spoke by telephone on the eve of a periodic review in Washington covering American policy toward Cuba that may result in a tightening of restrictions on contact. Mr. Payá, emphasizing that any resolution to Cuba's political situation must be...

Cuba Confirms Sentencing Dozens of Pro-Democracy Dissidents
Cuba confirmed today that dozens of dissidents who were arrested last month had been sentenced to prison terms of up to 28 years. In the first official statement on the trials of 78 opponents of President Fidel Castro rounded up since March 18, the Justice Ministry said the sentences ranged from 6 to 28 years. The dissidents were convicted of "mercenary activities and other acts against the independence and territorial integrity of the Cuban state," said a ministry statement published on the front page of...

Castro's Latest Victim: Himself
As we mark one year since the brutal government crackdown on the peaceful opposition in Cuba, my mind goes back to the morning of March 18, 2003. I was at a meeting of dissident leaders; we were discussing the hostile tone of the previous day's "Mesa Redonda," a political TV talk show that the government uses to convey its point of view to the population. "It is surprising that after yesterday's 'Mesa Redonda' we are still able to meet today," one of my colleagues said. Little did we know that this comment would be a prophecy...

Dozens of Cuban Dissidents Face Trial for Subversion
Ignoring international condemnation, Cuban authorities began trying dozens of dissidents today on charges of subversion that could bring life sentences for some of the government's most outspoken opponents. Human rights advocates in Cuba and the United States said as many as 38 people were brought to trial in courtrooms from which diplomats and foreign journalists were excluded. They said the trials of about 80 dissidents who were rounded up in an islandwide sweep last month could last through the weekend.

Cuban Dissidents Get Prison Terms as Long as 27 Years
Cuban courts today began handing out prison terms of up to 27 years to dozens of dissidents, including journalists and librarians, who had been advocating democratic reforms, according to human rights groups and news reports from Havana. The harsh sentences capped five days of trials in which state security agents who had infiltrated dissident groups testified against their supposed colleagues on charges of subversion and collaborating with American diplomats. Almost 80 people were arrested in an...

Dirty Pair: Affair on Nolandia - 1985
Dirty Pair: Affair on Nolandia is a 1985 OVA. It was created parralel to the TV series and came out on video during the series' first broadcasted run at the end of 1985. Although the OVA sold reasonably well, many fans rejected the more serious and hard sci-fi tone and style to the franchise. Sequels were clearly intended with the phrase 'See You Next Time, Vol ??' appearing at the end of the show's credits.
The production team obviously wanted to produce something more closely related to the original 1980 novel called 'The Great Adventures of Dirty Pair' both in designs and content. Takachiho Haruka, the author, also played a big part in writing and supervising the story in this OVA. It's assumed that this is also his favourite adaptation of his work.
The story is complex and the pace deliberately slow, since the Dirty Pair need time to unravel the mysteries of Nolandia. They must face everything from psychic powers, strange creatures, conspiracy casea, as well as the true secrets of Nolandia. The light heartedness and humour that made up the TV series is almost entirely absent from this rendition. It's clear the creators wanted a fresh break, so even the character designs got majorly changed and revamped. Both Kei, Yuri and as well as all the other characters in the story, now have realistical proportioned figures. The cute, curvy look is gone and a more angular, skinny, well proportioned look, is now in. Backgrounds equally go up a notch, boasting some really impressive color and detail. The music is delightfully catchy and sweet with the typical 80's synthesisers doing a wonderful job of adding to the atmosphere.
Affair of Nolandia simply offers some of the best animation and storytelling seen from this era. It's creativty is captivating, offering both fresh outlooks on designs and storytelling. Affair of Nolandia is a mind blowing experience upon first viewing. It continues to be benchmark for which other 80's anime must be compared to. Affair of Nolandia was lucky enough to get a release on DVD in 2003 and re-released in a thinpack bundle in 2005. Both are out of print, however the single release still goes cheap on Amazon Marketplace for around $5. A remastered DVD release in Japan, occurred in 2006. While the color and grain levels are slightly improved, the sound quality is vastly inferior to the R1 release. I therefore continue to treasure my Region 1 release over anything else. I urge you to hunt down a copy for yourself upon viewing this treasure. Hurry before copies get even harder to find, I suspect ADV lost the license to this a couple of years ago and this will soon become collector's fodder.

HEBER CITY — Most ardent sports fans like to think they're more than willing to help out the program they cheer for, but few actually have the time, resources, and, most of all, know-how to actually provide meaningful assistance.
Meet Randy Larson, a local computer software engineer and big BYU fan whose volunteer efforts have benefited the football program immensely since sending a spontaneous email to athletic director Tom Holmoe aimed at simply expressing thanks.
What happened after sending that email has been unexpected and mutually beneficial.
"I just wanted to express thanks to Holmoe for everything BYU represents," Larson explained. "At the end of the email, I simply asked them to let me know if there was anything I could do to help out. I wasn't really expecting a response."
BYU did respond to Larson's inquiry — almost immediately. "Within 30 minutes Tom Holmoe had forwarded my email and I was in touch with someone that subsequently met with me."
BYU quickly learned about his professional background and talents. After a few very quick conversations it was determined that he might be able to help out with the task of keeping track of player personnel, past, present and future.
Simple right?
Not even close.
Any school has to deal with all of the elements of managing its scholarships, eligibility of players and rosters. Add in the increased complication of mission comings and goings, and personnel becomes even more intricate and enormously time consuming.
And that's just for the players who have already joined the program.
What about tracking the hundreds of prospects and recruits from year-to-year? Organizing an extremely fluid process, like recruiting, is imperative when a program is seeking to attract the very best possible players to the program.
Keeping track of every player — current or future — is something BYU has done remarkably well considering the unique challenges involved with planning around missionaries.
"It's not that BYU can't do it or hasn't done it extremely well, for the most part, but that it's taken them a lot of time," Larson explained. "Much of the tracking and organization until recently was done on whiteboards and in a myriad of separate systems in the football offices. What BYU wanted was a computer program to consolidate and accurately track the critical information related to personnel decisions, and organize it in a format that allowed them to not only show where they are now, but what their roster looks like and personnel needs will be year over year."
It's a program that any coach can log into at any time to update, which keeps everyone up to speed on where players stand.
"Really, they wanted more than a management program, they wanted an intuitive program personnel forecasting tool that started with recruiting and lasted through graduation. In the end, that is what we created," Larson added.
The genius of Larson's program is its ease of use.
One simply creates a profile page for any given player or recruit that contains all the vital information, and every other page is updated accordingly. The sections include depth charts, scholarships, LDS mission service, recruiting commitments, and those being recruited.
Color coding is involved for every aspect from a high recruiting need, academic standing and everything else.

Autumn gas prices are dropping faster than fall foliage.
Experts say gas prices could soon drop 50 cents a gallon over the next few weeks. That could provide a boost for the economy and possibly become a factor in next month's presidential election.
In some parts of the country, prices have already dipped below three bucks. Here in Oklahoma City, the average price for a gallon of gasoline is $3.32.

Today was a busy and pretty exciting day. It was also an eye-excersize
day, as we went from "macro" to "micro" in the debris hunting phase. If
our boat was going 9 knots, I was on the bridge looking for big debris
anywhere from 10m from our boat, to 6mile, at the drop off point of the
horizon (with binoculars of course). This was taxing at points with the
glare, and white caps that would stand up and almost wave at you,
tempting you to count them in the debris mix, only to find them
disappear again before you could then verify the debris, which of
course, was not there. This went on for an hour at a time, while Andrew
or Josh were on a computer tallying scores, and whoever was not
tallying, was looking at the area within 5m of the boat for debris that
came along that designated path.
As soon as the boat slowed for the manta trawls (1m mouth net, and about
20cm deep), we would run down to the water level and count particles we
could see going into the net's mouth at 15min intervals. These could be
as small as 1mm in width. Amazing to think that we were looking for
such things in a vast ocean, but it was interesting to the calibrate the
numbers with the actual catch, as this will then help us with estimates
in the future.
After lunch Annie, Jim, Matt and I went out on the Zodiac for the last
time, looking for large debris pieces. We usually used the bridge and
spotters at high levels to help us find debris, but we happened to hit a
fairly thick area, and found a lot on our own by just driving the boat
around. Right near the end, we heard there was a ghost net, which is
what we had been looking for, as we wanted to get some underwater shots,
and these usually had a lot of fish life around them. This one was no
different, except for its "owner." This owner of the net was a very
surreal stuffed dog, that was sitting properly on top of the nets,
almost waiting for us to come rescue it. We could not believe it, and
have no idea how it got there, not to mention its perfect positioning as
a watch dog! If anyone knows its owner, we have him safe and sound now.
He has become the boat's mascot, and images of him can be seen on our
Voyage Tracker at kaisei.blipback.com.
Under this dog was a school of about 200 rainbow runner fish (about 8
inches long), and then 6 huge Mahi Mahi, swimming like a pack of hunting
dogs, but not bothering the rainbow runners – just yet. They lunged for
Jim's lure (he had a rod, just in case we saw such a net), but didn't
quite have the right gear to cast and reel them in. Instead Annie stuck
her head in the water with her big camera housing and got some
incredible footage! Stay tuned!
We are heading north now, to 40 degrees, where we will then head east.
There is a convergence zone there, so we expect to find a few more
interesting things along the way.

Research Grants Mazamas OverviewThe Mazamas are a mountaineering organization based in Portland, Oregon, and were organized on the summit of Mt. Hood in 1894. The purposes of the Mazamas are to explore mountains, disseminate authoritative and scientific information concerning them, encourage the preservation of forests and other features of mountain scenery in their natural beauty, and enhance the enjoyment and safety of outdoor recreation. Anyone who has climbed to the summit of a mountain on which there is a living glacier is eligible for membership. The word "Mazamas" is derived from a Native American term for the mountain goat. The Mazamas are dedicated to the exploration and preservation of mountain environments in the Pacific Northwest. Mazamas activities include gathering and disseminating scientific information concerning the natural features of mountains, forests, rivers, and lakes. Investigations of geologic features, biotic communities, and human endeavors pertaining to the enjoyment and safety of outdoor recreation are all relevant research topics. Previously Awarded Research GrantsCheck this link to see previously awarded grants. EligibilityAny individual or organization conducting nonprofit research consistent with the interests and activities of the Mazamas is eligible to submit a proposal in any of the categories listed above. Most successful applicants are graduate students or experienced scientists performing field studies in the Pacific Northwest. Applicants need not be Mazamas members. The suggested category for faculty and principal investigators is the "Standard Research Grant". The maximum award in this category is $3500. Graduate students are encouraged to apply for the "Graduate Student Grant" which has a maximum award of $2000. Graduate students may submit a "Standard Research Grant" application if they wish, but have to be aware that this category is much more competitive. Proposals concerning implementation of conservation activities should be directed to the Mazamas Conservation Grants. How do I apply?Application information for all grants can be found here. |

Michael Pollan's Prius-Hummer Blunder
Reader Comments
This really offends me "The moralistic critique of their consumption choices readily inspired Hummer owners to adopt the role of the moral protagonist who defends American national ideals".
I drive a Hummer H2. Its gets the same gas mileage as any of the main stream SUVs and cross overs out there, Ford Edge, Mazda CX7, Jeep, Dodge Nitro etc., etc. I know because I've been looking for something with 4x4 and decent mileage is there really isn't much. I bought my Hummer because I liked the looks of it, the price was right, and its built very solid. And yes, I like that it is (was) American made.
But I also care about the environment. I use reusable bags at stores, I compost, grow my own garden, buy organic food from local farmers as much as possible, recycle, shop at thrift stores and I really HATE when people by crap just to have crap. I'm very conscious about what I buy and only buy things I need or will truly value for the long term.
I've read Michael Pollan's stuff and firmly agree with his teachings. I've learned a lot about our food supply and I've reduced the amount of meat and industrial farmed products that I eat.
So don't peg me as a moral protagonist who doesn't give a crap about the environment. You don't know me.
Again, this study is not a survey based method. Two, this study did not address the actual environmental impact of the Hummer. Rather, it sought to explain the very puzzle you mention - why is the Hummer, which is just one of many low gas mileage SUVs, such a lightning rod for criticism and conversely a rallying point for defenders of "freedom" and the "American way-of-life."
I am just not getting the proverbial ax you are grinding here.
Look, you want to do any sort of defensible comparison based on survey it has to be statistically significant, end of story. This is recycled BS. I could invent hours of rederic on demand.
I can provide data on demand showing Hummer's impact on the environment to be so insignificant as to invalidate the coverage it receives.
How about doing the world a service and weigh the fuel consumption vs. vehicle's sold vs. odds the vehicle will be used as intended. That would actually be interesting and informative.
First, the study did not use a survey. The authors used depth interviews, sometimes lasting up to 3 hours plus information (i.e. narratives) drawn from various pro and anti-Hummer websites. The authors are not generalizing to all Hummer owners,. Their point, again, was that Hummer owners can invert the ecological and social condemnations against their vehicles. In other words, they envision themselves as being heroic Americans who are standing up for freedom and holding the line against those who endorse un-American values.
The authors also suggest that is is not an arbitrary occurrence that H2 sales peaked soon after Bush's mission accomplished speech, when the euphoria of resurgent American exceptionalism was at a pinnacle.
For the record, the Hmmmer study made no comparisons of the carbon footprint of Hummer owners versus prius drivers, or vegans or any other eco-segment.
They surveyed 20 owners. You can't even get a standard deviation with less than 30 and even then 30 is the absolute minimum. Therefore the conclusions are meaningless and cannot support a definsible position. Period.
Responsible journalism does not support or promote flawed information. There isn't even a disclaimer here stating the study's flaws.
You are dismissing the Hummer study on brute empiricist grounds but that is never the game in anthropologically-culturally oriented work. There point was the the Hummer owners (and lets be clear politically conservative and devoted Hummer owners) are understanding their vehicles from a culturally pervasive narrative of national identity. The authors drew linkages between prominent cultural expressions of American exceptionalism, hummer owner narratives, and broader rebuttals of global warming, Al Gore, Prius owners that are widely expressed on Hummer websites as well as many conservative blogs. In many respects, it is a far more grounded and powerful mode of analysis than simply reporting we surveyed 1000 people and they on average circled 5.4 on our scaled response to a question.
The only part of this writing more ridiculous then the claim regarding dietary preference vs. vehicle preference is the reference to that wholly flawed study regarding Hummer vehicle purchasers (20 respondents, no data published, complete BS).
Way to follow bad with worse as far as definsible claims and studies are concerned.

Latest Key Developments (Source: Significant Developments)
Sanofi SA and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc Announces Positive Top-line Results with Alirocumab from First Phase 3 Study of PCSK9 Inhibitor for LDL Cholesterol Reduction
Sanofi SA and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc announced that the Phase 3 ODYSSEY MONO trial with alirocumab, an investigational monoclonal antibody targeting PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9), met its primary efficacy endpoint. The mean low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C, or "bad" cholesterol) reduction from baseline to week 24, the primary efficacy endpoint of the study, was significantly greater in patients randomized to alirocumab, as compared to patients randomized to ezetimibe (47.2% vs. 15.6%, p <0.0001). In the trial, which employed a dose increase (up-titration) for patients who did not achieve an LDL-C level of 70 milligrams/deciliter (mg/dL), the majority of patients remained on the initial low dose of alirocumab of 75 milligrams (mg). The percentage of patients who reported treatment emergent adverse events was 78.4% in the ezetimibe group and 69.2% in the alirocumab group. The most common class of adverse events was infections (39.2% with ezetimibe vs. 42.3% with alirocumab), which included nasopharyngitis, influenza, and upper respiratory tract infection. Injection-site reactions occurred in less than 2% of patients in both groups. Muscle-related adverse events occurred in 3.9% of patients treated with ezetimibe and 3.8% of patients treated with alirocumab. ODYSSEY MONO is the first study to report data from the 12 Phase 3 trials that have been initiated so far as part of the more than 23,000 patient ODYSSEY clinical trial program. Full Article

Sanofi SA Relaunches Restructuring Program-Le Figaro
Le Figaro reported that Sanofi SA has relaunched the restructuring of its research and development activities in France. The initial version of the program was rejected by the authorities on the grounds that the information given to employee representatives was inadequate and there was no real redeployment plan for workers. Sanofi SA has therefore submitted new proposals to trade unions in preparation for a meeting of the Central Works Council on October 15, 2013. In July 2013 the Company announced 207 job cuts in research and development by the end of 2015 and approximately 400 changes of location. The new proposals set the number of job losses at 186 by the end of 2015. However, the Company maintains its commitment to make its Toulouse site autonomous within five years. According to documents given to trade unions 364 jobs out of 617 will remain in Toulouse. Full Article
Sanofi SA's Gezyme Announces Positive TOPIC Study of Once-daily Oral Aubagio
Sanofi SA announced that its Genzyme announced positive new data from the TOPIC study of its once-daily, oral Aubagio (teriflunomide). According to the study results, Aubagio 14 milligram significantly reduced the risk of a new clinical relapse or MRI lesion over the two-year study period. As measured by MRI over the two-year study period, there was a 5% increase in total lesion volume among patients treated with Aubagio 14 milligram compared to a 28% increase among patients treated with placebo. In addition, there was a 59% reduction in gadolinium-enhancing T1 lesions among patients treated with Aubagio 14 milligram compared to placebo. Similar results were observed for the 7 milligram dose, though the effects did not achieve statistical significance on some endpoints. The TOPIC trial was designed to assess whether early initiation of Aubagio in patients who experienced their first neurological symptoms suggestive of MS could prevent or delay a second clinical attack, i.e., conversion to clinically definite multiple sclerosis (CDMS). As previously announced, patients receiving Aubagio 14 milligram and 7 milligram in the TOPIC trial were significantly less likely than placebo to develop CDMS, the primary endpoint. Compared to placebo, Aubagio 14 milligram reduced the risk of conversion to CDMS by 43%. Full Article

KHT marks 10th year with promises to tenants
Published by Max Salsbury for 24dash.com in Housing and also in Communities
KHT marks 10th year with promises to tenants
Knowsley Housing Trust (KHT) is celebrating its 10th birthday by launching a new set of promises about the way it will improve homes, communities and the environment.
The promises were unveiled at a birthday open day for staff and tenants, where they could find out more about KHT's achievements over the past decade and its plans for the future.
Over the next five years, KHT has pledged to invest £160 million into maintaining homes; to build 400 new homes and invest £63m to meet housing needs; to create 950 jobs and training opportunities for local people; and to invest £6 million in energy saving solutions and reduce its carbon footprint by 28%.
KHT, part of The First Ark Group, turned 10-years-old in July and many events and activities are planned throughout the year. The celebrations started with the burying of a time capsule outside its Lakeview offices.
The housing association was formed in 2002 when Knowsley tenants were asked to vote on whether to transfer stock from the council. Over 60% of people who returned their ballot voted yes.
Councillor Ron Rounds from Knowsley Council said: "Councillors saw that transferring our housing stock and creating a new organisation was the best way forward for our tenants and the borough and I can say that 10 years later it is a success. We have a great partnership and I hope it will continue."
Ray Bennett, 82, from Whiston, has been active within KHT for the past five years, sitting on many tenant groups and boards. He said: "The voice of tenants is very much taken on board by KHT.
"They are definitely a force in the neighbourhood for good and they have improved the quality of life for people of Knowsley.
"They are not just paying lip service, they are making good on their promises. They are getting it right and I am sure that will continue. If they keep up the standards they have set the future promises to be excellent."
It all adds up for Man Utd defender

Black Metal. That was easy.
Printable View
Black Metal. That was easy.
Death metal is definitely my favorite, in particular old school death metal, death/thrash, and technical/brutal death metal.
2nd would be heavy metal, which isn't included on the poll (includes proto-metal, early doom stuff like Pentagram, and speed metal and the 1st wave black metal bands like Hellhammer) Not so much the NWOBHM like Iron Maiden though.
3rd would have to be sludge and doom.
Black Metal is easily my favourite genre followed by straight-up heavy metal and then doom.
Black, followed by traditional.
Prog, then thrash and death. Hair metal I wouldn't really classify as a musical genre but more of a style or attitude.
When did all you guys become uber kvlt? And I'm surprised by the lack of death metal love...
My favorite from the stuff I heard so far would probably be death metal, followed by heavy metal then power metal.
Im surprised super narrow and small categories like gothic and industrial are over doom metal. Besides, sludge metal is a subfusiongenre of doom metal.
