John Kavulich, senior policy adviser [corrected president] at the U.S.-Cuba Trade & Economic Council, told Inside U.S. Trade that despite constant pressure from the business community, the Obama Administration, in these regulatory changes, did not make meaningful progress on several key business priorities. During an Oct. 14 conference call on the regulatory changes, a senior administration official said “we're mindful of the clock. And this is certainly likely the last significant tranche of changes. But there are always additional refinements that we can do to our policies, as my Treasury and Commerce colleagues know well." For Kavulich, that is something that “is not what the United States business community wants to hear.” Similarly, attorney and Cuba analyst Robert Muse describes the latest regulatory changes as short of what was expected and lacking significance overall. The business community’s top four priorities, according to Kavulich, are: expanding imports of Cuban agriculture products; substantive options to expand U.S.

    7. CASE STUDY: CHAGAS' DISEASE; LOCATION: GUA... http://www.nytimes.com/2001/05/06/magazine/7-case-study-ch... Health 7. CASE STUDY: CHAGAS' DISEASE; LOCATION: GUATEMALA; Building a Better Bloodsucker By Jack Hitt Published: May 06, 2001 In an Atlanta suburb, I have joined two scientists at the Home Depot to shop for some wood. There are other men in the aisle, homeowners who are wheeling their flatbed lumber carts among the forests of upright planks -- poplar, oak, pine. They are building huts for their children to play in or sheds for their tools. Their mumblings involve the important issues of length and width. My guys fret more about glue content and stability under intense humidity. They are not building a playhouse or a toolshed. Instead, these scientists are building a simulacrum of a thatched Guatemalan hut that will sit inside a triply-protected Level Two Biological Hazard greenhouse on the campus of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A few days from now, they will release into this near-natural environment a swarm of insects containing altered genes, what they cheerfully call ''Frankenbugs'' because they know as well as you do that it's inevitable. For the last few years, the public debate involving the phrase ''genetically altered'' has remained hermetically contained within the plant kingdom. Now it is escaping the tomato vines and cornfields and jumping into the animal kingdom. The small group of scientists around the world who specialize in this new field recently held only their third annual ''Insect Transgenesis'' conference. Here in the United States, a handful of experiments tinkering with the genome of insects has recently received protocol clearance by the government.

    Tales from the BATTLEFRONT By: Laser921 and WodiQuix A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away . It is a period of civil war. Across the galaxy, the GALACTIC CIVIL WAR rages, an explosive conflict between the evil forces of the GALACTIC EMPIRE and the freedom fighters of the ALLIANCE TO RESTORE THE REPUBLIC. Striking quickly and decisively, the ALLIANCE has managed to win a decisive battle on the volcanic planet of SULLUST, shutting down the mighty factories driving the powerful Imperial war machine. But the EMPIRE is far from defeated. Retaliating with awesome force, the EMPIRE has driven the ALLIANCE into the farthest reaches of known space, determined to crush their foe once and for all. Barely managing to evade their pursuers, the rebel ships have temporarily bought time for the brave leaders of the ALLIANCE to plan their next move. Aboard the rebel star cruiser INVINCIBLE FAITH, the brave soldiers and leaders of the ALLIANCE hatch a daring plan to cripple the EMPIRE even further . Dramatis Personae: Jevin Corso, Human male: Hailing from Carida, Corso made his mark early in the galaxy. In his late teens to early twenties, he had a stint as a bodyguard, eventually having lucrative contracts protecting high-level executives of corporations like BlasTech, Sorosuub, and Kuat Drive Yards. During a job, he received word his parents were brutally murdered by the Empire during a peaceful protest on Carida. After this, he joined the Rebellion, becoming a captain in Leia Organa’s Honor Guard. Wodi Quix, Human male: An orphan from Breental IV who saw his parents killed in a pirate attack, Wodi Quix started out in a local resistance group, eventually making his way to the Rebellion.

EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$9.87 DESCRIPTORS *Communication (Thought Transfer), *Decision Making, *Industry, *Information Sources, Investigations, *Purchasing, Surveys ABSTRACT Conducted during 1966-67, these 33 case studies were expected to provide insights into various aspects of organizational decision making (especially the ways in which influence is exerted and perceived in specific decisions). Eleven firms, all having headquarters and at least ore plant or division in the Chicago area, were chosen from a directory of the 1,000 largest United States industrial corporations. These 11 firms ranged in type from heavy industrial equiplent to publishing and musical instruments. Accounts of nonrepetitive (infrequent or first time) purchasing included 11 cases involving decisions to purchase and use new materials, eight on purchasing or leasing business machines, six on buying machinery and tools, five to purchase trucks, two to conduct plant expansion and maintenance, and a decision to obtain furniture for an individual office. In an effort to trace the chain of communication, 180 people were interviewed as to the product and its use, how the need arose, internal and external information sources, the choice of a particular type of product, and factors (including the supplier's
