数百年重建清真寺要拆

choi

On Aug 4, 2018 I published "参观科研所涉盗水稻种子 美起诉华两农业研究员."  Just now I modified that posting in two places.

I
Note (b)(iv) WAS "Presumably the duo were taken into custody in Honolulu airport, charged and detained pending indictment. (I am clueless about why it takes so long.)

It is now:
"Presumably the duo were taken into custody in Honolulu airport, charged and detained pending indictment.

I am clueless about why it takes so long.
* Federal Rule Criminal Procedure 7(a)(1) states, "Felony. An offense (other than criminal contempt) must be prosecuted by an indictment if it is punishable:
(A) by death; or
(B) by imprisonment for more than one year."
* Speedy Trial Act, codified as 18 USC §3161, whose sub-section (b) states, "Any information or indictment charging an individual with the commission of an offense shall be filed within thirty days from the date on which such individual was arrested or served with a summons in connection with such charges."
* The 18 USC §3262(a) states, "In General.-Except as otherwise expressly provided by law, no person shall be prosecuted, tried, or punished for any offense, not capital, unless the indictment is found or the information is instituted within five years next after such offense shall have been committed."  The statute of limitations explains timing of  the indictment: arrests were made on Aug 7, 2013 in Honolulu airport.

Note (d)(i)  WAS: "Yes, VEN100 did receive fanfare back then. See
Amy Maxmen, Drug-Making Plant Blooms; Approval of a 'biologic' manufactured in plant cells may pave the way for similar products. Nature, 485: 160 (May 10, 2010' in the section of "News")

In other words, FDA grants first approval for plant-made pharmaceutical (PMP). But today you still have not heard of it, because it is not working."


The last sentence is now:
"Growing proteins (including medicines) in rice is not working -- probably because for a protein to properly fold it (protein) needs to be immersed in water. The first plant-made pharmaceutical (PMP) that FDA approved in 2012 was Elelyso (taliglucerase alfa) made by individual carrot cells suspended in bioreactors (vats you see in the Nature news; not in carrots) in Israel -- a very traditional manufacturing process, except that plant cells rather than animal cells or yeasts are used in bioreactors. See How is ELELYSO made?  Pfizer Inc, undated.

(Pfizer collaborates with the Israel-based Protalix Biotherapeutics that was featured in the Nature news.)

Presently ELELYSO is one of the three medicines (basically the same in terms of composition, by different pharmaceutcals), all to be injected intravenously every two weeks and costs more than half a million dollars each patient.

"宁夏回族自治区 * * * 当局指「违规建筑」 * * * 吴忠市同心县韦州镇政府近日发公告指，镇内「韦州清真大寺」因为未取得乡村建设用地规划许可证及建筑工程许可证，而擅自建设该寺，而违反法例，要求负责人于周五（10日）前拆卸寺院，否则当局就派人进行强拆

"据网上资料显示，「韦州清真大寺」始建年代说法不一，有说是明洪武十二至十三年（1379-1380）间，由当地人带头赴各地募捐筹款建成。 * * * 1966年文革时，该寺曾被拆毁。1979年重修 * * * 2015年决定重建，已于2015年6月13日举行了奠基仪式。
