new york (reuters) - biopure corp. (nasdaq:bpur - news), a biotechnology company seeking to commercialize a substitute blood product, on monday said a late-stage clinical trial showed the product is comparatively safe.. the phase iii trial was conducted to determine whether the blood substitute, called hemopure, met its "primary endpoint,'' which was to show that patients receiving the product were as safe as those receiving donated red blood cells.. "this clinical milestone is an important step toward addressing the critical issue of blood availability on a worldwide basis,'' carl rausch, the company's chief executive, said in a statement.. the news comes two weeks after cambridge, massachusetts-based biopure was accused by online news site thestreet.com of delaying and covering up negative trial results.

the report sent the stock plummeting 11 percent.

is it because we're a cynical lot?.

maybe because we were the first generation of latch-key kids who learned how to raise ourselves?.

WT never stops SPECUL;ATING ON When THE END BE

below is an email---just another example in a long history of having bethel speakers speculate on issues and matters that will never be put into print- yet for the poor listeners they leave with a feeling of new light.

we have all seen this type of info from the boys from bethel only to be told that it was the bro opinion and not the org- when the sh!t hit s the fan.

the org is fully aware that they have men with 20-50 yrs of bethel service out there giving goof balls talks and building up the hope of the rank and file knowing full well it will never happen or be true.
