Sue Na Me Sadness (Dec 27 2004 22:59 GMT) - It's too hard to imagine over 20,000 people dying in one day in these huge tidal waves. Sadly, there is a tsunami warning system available, but it wasn't in place. Since I missed church yesterday, I think I'll send my offering money to the Red Cross Relief Fund. It's heartbreaking to think about the homes, schools, and churches destroyed in the quake. Thankfully, my church is still standing and I think my church can get by for one week without my check. |

Franskt nej kan bli nytt bakslag för Astra Zeneca (Dec 27 2004 22:58 GMT) - Vilken dag som helst ska den franska tillsynsmyndigheten för läkemedel meddela om den godkänner läkemedlet Exanta som förebyggande läkemedel mot blodpropp inte bara vid knä- och höftledsoperationer. Blir det ja kan Astra Zeneca och vd Tom McKillop andas ut något. Blir det däremot ett nej innebär det inte bara ett stort bakslag för företaget utan också fler rop på Mc Killops avgång. |

Informed Comment: From Juan Cole: Tsunami a Foretaste of Global Warming (Dec 27 2004 22:55 GMT) - From Juan Cole:Tsunami a Foretaste of Global Warming The horror of waves caroming across the Indian ocean at 500 miles an hour (the speed of a commercial jet liner!) and then crashing into beaches and shorelines at a height of as much as 30 feet, for all the world like liquid Godzilla, crushing sunbathers and carrying hapless villagers off deep into the sea, can scarcely be guessed at for those of us who only see a bit of rubble and ankle-deep flooding, in the aftermath, on the cable television news feeds. On Sunday at least 12,500 to 14,000 lives were abruptly snuffed out in India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Indonesia and elsewhere in the path of the enormous waves, called tsunami. [ 1/27/04 2: |
