Anthrax911Gate- Never ending evidence without breakthrough?
LAST EDITED ON Jul-15-02 AT 04:29 AM (ET)

Anthrax911Gate

From Homeland Health to Johns Hopkins to Battelle-Wiley connection
==========================================

Ever heard of http://www.HomelandHealth.com ?

This website explains that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has basically joined with the pharmaceutical industry to develop defenses against biological threats.

This project was started by the
Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA)
on October 30th, 2001
http://www.phrma.org/press/newsreleases//2001-10-30.303.phtml

America’s pharmaceutical companies ( http://www.newmedicines.org/ )joined together to develop this site, with the advice and support of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

We learned already that the NIH was often involved in BioPharmarcy Business deals.

In 1998 the OraVax company (Bioweapon Vaccines) had been likewise linked to shady backroom dealings with the NIH for a yet to be tested West Nile Virus vaccine.
Among the guests of this meeting Jerome "Jerry" Hauer.

Hauer had obviously very often "prior knowledge" (or just instinct?) in his live. On September 10th, he already started to work for the NIH, who only one day later decided, that the White House incl. Dick Cheney should take CIPRO.

That's one of the reasons, why Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit against the NIH, WH, FBI, CDC and Co. some weeks ago and should be supported by every proud american who should finally wake up and realise, who are the real traitors in this country:

BioPharmacy who tried to kill their own citizens, backed by their own government and CIA for the only reasons to achieve a BioDefense Budget, develop new drugs (or also weapons)and sell them worldwide.

But what they really needed was a terrorist threat to justify their means. That's what obviously think tanks like the CFR, CSIS and ANSER came up with some years ago.
Never in history was BioFascism so perfect:

Noone complains.

Maybe they all learned from Prescott Bush how to do it better this time?

So what's the background story of HomelandHealth?

Actually HomelandHealth, backed by http://www.anser.org is lead by Dr. Michael Friedman, former Head of FDA and Veteran of The Public Health Service and also on the board of Pharmacia Corporation.

Due to their own website, we find magically another old friend of the endless 911-saga:
HomelandHealth's consultant is Arthur Andersen, LLP.


As investigative journalist Jim Rarey found out,
Friedman was also the FDA official who gave the Department of Defense the go ahead to use the anthrax vaccine in the Gulf war even though the FDA had not found it to be safe or effective against inhalation anthrax.

Pharmacia Corporation is basically Pharmacia and Upjohn Laboratories, which acquired Monsanto (chemical) Company. The combined companies have a pipeline of new drugs, a $2 billion research and development budget and a leading sales force in the U.S. market

Source: http://www.strike-the-root.com/columns/Rarey/rarey1.html

"...The current Chairman of the Board and CEO of Pharmacia is a Pakistani named Fred Hassan. Hassan was President of Pharmacia-Upjohn at the time of the merger with Monsanto, and moved into his current position after Monsanto’s CEO had served an interim 18-month period as head of the combined companies.."

But we find also other interesting names:

"...William Ruckelshaus is a Harvard-trained lawyer who came out of the Justice Department to become the first administrator of the new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1970. He served another three-year term as EPA administrator during the Reagan administration. Ruckelshaus is currently a principal in the Madrona Investment Group.

Michael (Mickey) Kantor is a close confidante of Bill Clinton and served in his administration first as the United States Trade Representative (USTR). Kantor took over as Commerce Secretary following the controversial death of Ron Brown. Kantor was one of the point men involved in blunting some of the Clinton personal scandals, including the Kathleen Willey affair.

Dr. Philip Leder, although a virtual unknown outside of medical circles, has impressive credentials. He is Chairman of the Department of Genetics at Harvard Medical School and a Senior Investigator for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI).

He was a contemporary of Dr. Don C. Wiley at Harvard..."


Break!

We know this name. Don C Wiley who had made a breakthrough in genetic research in BioScience (x-ray cristallines etc..) was one of a few BioScientists who died under strange circumstances last year.

Now Wiley also was funded as an investigator by HHMI.

Did Wiley find something out and has to die?

Don C Wiley disappeared during a business trip to Memphis on November 14th.

His car was later found on a bridge, his dead body was found 200 miles away a few days before Xmas.

While the local police already explained this case as suicide, the FBI later decided to turn this case into an "accident".

However his family still believes in foul-play.
Still a case for tinfoils only?

But back to Pharmacia:

"...Perhaps the most controversial member of Pharmacia’s board is Frank Carlucci. Carlucci is Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Carlyle Group, which describes itself as a "merchant bank." However, its portfolio ranks it as one of the major defense contractors in the country..."

Carlucci held several sub-cabinet level positions in the Nixon Administration. As Deputy Secretary of Defense under Caspar Weinberger in the Reagan administration, he was responsible for development and procurement of new weapons.

Carlucci was also Deputy Director of the CIA.

Maybe it's time to rename te CIA into Central Intelligence of Anthrax?

But the circles are so obvious:

When Carlucci was Secretary of Defense, he worked closely with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral William Crowe.

Crowe later founded in 1997 (with the help of ex-Porton Down al-hibry) BIOPORT, who later in 1998 got a three-year contract by the DoD to develop Anthrax-Vaccines.


How many prior knowledge they all had?
It looks pretty obvious, that the Anthrax attack was already planned in 1998.

But then again we also know that the War against the Taliban was planned since 1998 as well- because of the struggled negotiations between the Taliban and UNOCAL, who worked on a pipeline system with main contractor Halliburton Kellogg Root + Brown under Dick Cheney.

But also ENRON Broadband with their subdivision TSI Communications filed a contract with the Taliban, but had more luck: Cell Phones can't be fired.

Later they had the proud job to sponsore the rigged election of George Bush with the help of DBT Online.

And Bush needed the pipelines, the BioDefense, the war and obviously was puppeted for lot of things more.

But all he knew was officially a possible threat by unknown "terrorists" around someone,which in the meantime everyone forgot: Bin Laden.

Who really is this Bin Laden?
If the Anthrax attack and the War against the Taliban was both planned, was it just a coincidence, that "someone else" planned an attack on america?

Was this LIHOP or more?
A public 911-commission has to find this out!

And they have thousands of questions to answer:

Was the WTC attack a helpful coincidence as well or was it part of the plan anyway?

We should ask Stephen Hatfill, Jerome Hauer and Dr. Inglesby (Johns Hopkins Institute) for this.


Remember:

Researchers Leonard Horowitz and Patricia Doyle have catalogued the extensive involvement and control by HHMI of research on the human genome. At least six microbiologists in that field with ties to HHMI have been murdered or died mysterious deaths.

It's about much money.
It's time to make the whole anthrax case public and aska bout the strange 911-connections:

1) Dr. Inglesby claimed that a few of the 911 hijackers had anthrax
2) Jerome Hauer started a job at the NIH at least on Sep10th
3) Hauer and Hatfill (Batelle) are friends from the CFR and SAIC
4) Hauer and Inglesby both are connected to Fort Detrick and various BioTerror Scenarios, including "DARK WINTER", sponsored by anser.org , who later founded the Homeland Security (99), CSIS and CFR, but also the Oclahoma Terrorist Memorial Fund.


This all doesn't fit with a Bin laden story. It even doesn't fit with Iraq.
The Anthrax came fro Detrick.

The CIA experimentated with Anthrax as well and maybe also in Rhodesia with the help of Porton Down, which is hard to prove.

What is about Don C Wiley?
What did he find out?

Is it a coincidence, that only 2 days after his vanishment, Stephen Hatfill (Batelle) took a plane to England?
And what about the strange death of Vladimir Pasechnik on November 21st, former director of the Institute of Ultra Pure Biochemical Preparations?

How is the BioPharmacy really connected with 911?

The U.S. Congress spent $3 billion on biodefense after the anthrax letter attacks.

Here is a list of some of the players and look behind their secrets:


Battelle Memorial Institute
(FBI investigated at least 4 times at Battelle since October 2001:
Stephen Hatfill/CFR, ex-SAIC and Michael P. Failey
http://de.f130.mail.yahoo.com/ym/login?.rand=8d1s18jgg4gob
Who is really the scapegoat?)


Bayer
(sold Anthrax-Vaccines in October 2001)

BioPort
(got a 3-year contract by the DoD in 1998 to develop Vaccines)

Bristol-Myers Squibb
(Former NYC-FBI director Thomas Pickard/Aug 01 started a job as top security chief at BMS in January 2001)

CDC
(distributed the vaccines)

and more companies who profited from the anthrax attacks and got a huge BioDefense Budget

Cepheid, FDA, Hadron, Intellitec, Ion Beam Applications, Motorola Life Sciences, Nanosphere, U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), U.S. Public Health Service, and Versar

Not on this list:
DynCorp, who got involved too (network systems, wespons etc...)


More Questions:

Why is the U.S. Government overpaying for Cipro when less-expensive alternatives are available?

What was behind Project Bacchus, a secret DOD experiment conducted at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada during the summer of 2000?

Why is Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood, formerly of the Pakistani nuclear program, now interested in bioweapons like anthrax?

How come Iowa State University of Ames, Iowa destroyed its collection of anthrax samples in late September 2001 with the blessings of the FBI?

Who forced Barry Mawn (ex-FBI), who classified the famous "passpord in the rubble" (on Vesey Street in front of Building 7, where the OEM, DOD, CIA and INS had their offices on the same two floors), to stop the anthrax investigation on Tom Brokaw?

Why was Barry Mawn retired from the FBI in March 2002?
Is it true, that as Tom Daschle was quoted, that Mawn complained during his investigations, the Anthrax might be "homegrown"?

Did someone tried to bribe him with a job at Massport (Boston)?

Why did Richard Perle (Top Advisor of the Pentagon) try with his Daily Telegraph UK (owned by his company Hollinger Inc.) in October 2001 to fabricate a meeting with Mohammad Atta and a Iraq diplomacy?
(Atta never met this guy, he met someone else, as often confirmed by the Czech secret service.)

What did Jerome Hauer, Dr. Inglesby, D.A Henderson (both Hopkins Institute) really discuss in their dozens of BioTerrorism Scenarios between 2000 an 2001? (e.G. Wednesday, 19 April, 2000 )
http://www.molbio.princeton.edu/courses/mb427/2000/syllabus.html

What did Jerome Hauer really build in Building 7 for the OEM?
Or did he build something for the CIA, the DOD or for all for them?

For what was the big gas tank in this building on the 23rd floor?
Was there a secret anthrax laboratory or some future weapons, which had to be destroyed on September 11th?

What is the connection between ANSER and the real role of the Homeland Security?

On which weapons did Dr. Jay C. Davis of ANSER really work?
http://www.homelandsecurity.org/Hls%2FAbout%20Institute/davis%2Ehtm

What are his ties to the CIA?
What did he develop as a director of the Center for accelerator mass Mass Spectrometry?
What are his favourite skills in "nuclear physics, nuclear instrumentation, plasma physics, accelerator design"?


What really hit Building 7?
Or did the Building 7 maybe hit the Twin Towers?

Are the eye-witnesses and video sources maybe no tinfoil fabrication, but real, that laser-photon weapons or missiles hit the Towers?

What's the latest result in this obscure and classified investigation, led by Mat Heyman of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

Is this really a science fiction speculation only?

However Davis developed also another future weapon, the thermobarics, first tested in Nevada, later in ToraBora.

Davis is also on advisory bodies for the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Nuclear Security Administration. He has served as a visiting professor at Texas A&M (chemistry) and Angelo State University (government). He is on the Board of Directors of the Fannie and John Hertz Foundation.

Dr. Davis participated in two UN inspections of Iraq in the summer of 1991, having major operational and scientific responsibilities in the inspection process.

More Questions:


What really happened with Don C Wiley?

Wiley was a researcher at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, which is connected with Battelle.


Part of the HHMI (Northern Virginia) is the Center for Innovative Technology in Herndon and they currently working on a new plant in Ashburn, which is supported by Battelle:


February 12, 2001
http://techway.washtech.com/news/2_3/techcap/7182-1.html

"Northern Virginia has always been trying to get their toehold in biotech," said Walt Plosila, vice president with Battelle Memorial Institute in Cleveland, and former director of the High Technology Council of Maryland. "This certainly would be a major anchor for them."


For some bizarre coincidences the HHMI management likes loactions next to airports:

1)
"...They wanted the (Alexandria) center to be an hour's drive from headquarters in Chevy Chase, on a site at least 100 acres and no more than an hour's drive to an airport.."

2)
"...The Janelia Farm site, on the other hand, is eight miles from Dulles International Airport..."

On Janelia we will find also Celera (Craig Venter), another huge pharmacy company, who is proud to be happen as one of the first companies, who recognised the human DNA.

Actually since September 2001 they have another, not really controversial job: They have to identify all victims of the Twin Towers.

Right now they had to confirm, that 1/3 of all victims had been totally pulverised and no DNA can be identified, which never happened before in the history of criminology.


http://www.bizforward.com/wdc/issues/2002-01/bioscience/


"... For Chevy Chase, MD-based Howard Hughes, which announced the site selection in February 2001, Janelia Farm offers the perfect mix of rural solitude and urban access. Just eight miles north of Dulles Airport and within 30 miles of most government agencies, the Loudoun County site was once to be the U.S. headquarters of Dutch software developer Baan Companies, which had already started constructing three office buildings there ...


...In all, Maryland now has about 270 biotech companies, including high-profile big hitters like Celera, Gene Logic, Human Genome Sciences and MedImmune. Most are in DC suburbs, although Baltimore has snagged a few, thanks to Johns Hopkins University...."

What are the other roles of ANSER?
Did someone of them had prior knowledge about 911 or even had been involved?

Who are really these "sleeper cells", the Pentagon and CIA tell us about?
Do we really have to think in Al Quaeda or is it Al Bogus or Al CIAeda?

What's General Monroe Hatch role at ANSER?

http://www.anser.org/aboutanser/bios/trustees/hatchbio.html

He has held numerous positions on the staffs at Headquarters Strategic Air Command (SAC), Offutt Air Force Base; at Headquarters U.S. Air Force, Washington, DC; and in the Office of the Secretary of Defense

What did he do on September 11th?
Was he at Offutt on the party of Buffett as well, together with one of the CEOs of the Twin Towers?

What is Miriam E.John doing for ANSER?
Is there really no interest conflict?

She's also Vice President of Sandia’s California Division.

http://www.anser.org/aboutanser/bios/trustees/johnbio.html

How perfect. ANSER creates the Homeland Security and gets money for weapons at SANDIA. Isn't this a political mini scandal?

But we forgot. It's war and everything is allowed.

ANSER is full of odd and disturbing connections.
From the founding to the HS to strong ties with the CFR, CSIS...this list is endless.

At least 3 ANSER executives worked for the CIA or still have ties to the CIA or Pentagon.
For example H.B. Zachry,who also held several positions leading to his appointment as Manager of the Command and Service Module in the Apollo Spacecraft Program Office.

Or Dr. Mignogna.
http://www.anser.org/aboutanser/bios/corpofficers/mignognabio.html
He has served on high-level Air Force and DOD study efforts such as the Strategic Bomber Penetration Assessment Group and the Strategic Penetration Technology.
He is an Adjunct Professor of Statistics at the American University and a member of the AIAA Weapon Systems Effectiveness Technical Committee.

Or Dr. John Gannon, who worked at ANSERs Homeland Security:
http://www.homelandsecurity.org/Hls%2FAbout%20Institute/gannon%2Ehtm

He served as Chairman of the National Intelligence Council (1997-2001) after serving for two years (1995-1997) as the Deputy Director for Intelligence, CIA.

Mr. Gannon earned a Ph.D. and an M.A. in history from Washington University in Saint Louis and a B.A. in psychology from Holy Cross College in 1966.

Don't forget Jerome Hauer
(OEM, Building 7, Johns Hopkins, SAIC, NIH, Oravax etc...)

His full story about John O'neill (Hauer organised the job for O'Neill as a security chief in the Twin Towers) is still untold.
Why?

And Hauers story is getting longer with every single day.
Not only his friendship with Stephen Hatfill (Batelle),
but also some other obscure "coincidences":


Hauer was (also) the man who was friends with and who introduced Col. Thomas Monath to Giuliani -- Monath, working as VP of Oravax, Inc, has a long history with secret forces and genetically engineered vaccines, and whose company had announced a West Nile encephalitis vaccine THE SAME DAY THAT THE SPRAYING BEGAN in 1999, and whose company also works on dengue fever.

But the agreement about this was a few months earlier:
http://www.acambis.com/cfm/index.cfm?subvar=2&cvar=3archive
"...OraVax and Pasteur Mérieux Connaught sign licensing and collaboration agreement for a vaccine against dengue fever (09 December 1998)..."

Cuba has long complained that Dengue fever has been used against it by the US as a bioterrorist agent.
http://www.canfnet.org/News/020226newsa.htm

And in December 2001 there was a surprising huge and inexplicable outbreak of dengue fever in Hawaii.

But the Anthrax story goes back and forth, back and forth and doesn't come to a breakthrough.

Maybe some republicans are so stupid to blame it on Clinton as well. Maybe that would really help and we would find out more about Clinton's roundtable discussion on genetic engineering and biological weapons on October 10th, 1998:

This is a nice participant list, which explains, why the FAS knew from the beginning, that the UNITED STATES had been behind the Anthrax case:

Barbara Rosenberg was listed there too and surrounded by freaky persons we already know out of the CFR/CSIS/ANSER corner:

Some of the participants:

4. Well from what I've found
The names that stand out the most in BioPorts holdings is the Carlyle Group (Bush Family) and the Bin Ladens.

http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/binladenprofits.html

http://www.i-sis.org.uk/isisnews/i-sisnews13-12.php

If this is true then I can see why this investigation by the FBI is going nowhere. Carlyle could be forced to turn over their books thus showing who they invest in. Plus it would tie Bush and Binney together as business partners.

5. bush
I don't see any direct connection to Bush and this also wasn't the purpose of my research.

This is a pharma-military coup, which has nothing to do with him.
If Carlyle is involved in it and sure they had financial interests, then this is no evidence for a Bush involvement and it also doesn't help to solve this case.

There is also an old 911-rule:
Everything which points on Bush only is a RedHerring.

I'm not interested in these topics.

More about 911PharmaGate ASAP...

6. Everything which points on Bush only is a RedHerring?
ewing, I have difficulty parsing that sentence. I know English isn't your first language.

Do you mean:

a) Everything which points to Bush (poppy or W) and only Bush is a red herring? or

b) Everything which points to W having any involvement or foreknowledge is only a red herring?

c) something else.

I agree with you that this looks like a case of IG Farben rearing it's ugly head again, but not about a or b if that's what you meant. There are just too many "coincidences".

You sure find some interesting details... keep up the research

LAST EDITED ON Jul-16-02 AT 03:32 AM (ET)

Thanks Wonk for the corrections of some language barriers.
It's indeed a) and b) and if you like also c)

I would suggest to concentrate on other people outside the White House. Right now you can't find much new stink anymore.
Cheney, Ashcroft and White as the few exceptions are all already a bit framed by JudicialWatch + Co, who i think, did a good job.
Harken has no legs, Halliburton a lot more if they would concentrate on the oil-connections and no auditor-stuff.
We will see...

To concentrate on Bush only is still the wrong strategy for me.

If we are able to show the BookerElemantary Video in public and on TV, you can count me in (and we're working on this anyway) but the rest is just wasting time...

Bush hasn't planned 911, neither did Bin laden.
Both won't get problems because of business-"scandals".

Therefore it only distracts the 911-investigation and that's obviously where they want us to be.
But that's a lousy trap.

If we can prove the political and criminal evidence (911-LIHOP) around him, the whole government has to be impeached anyway and many people from the Pentagon, CIA and pharmacy have to be imprisoned during an open 911-commission.


That's my only goal and i don't do any compromises.
I tried to find arrangements in the middle, but the majority of DU decided to go into other directions.

This is not Watergate. They ended in the WH, we have to go the other way round. We started in the WH very succesfully,
but in a fascist system you have to analyse the whole body.

So i try to represent other strategies with UQ, SG + co. and try to reflect them peacefully in this 911/Terror-forum, at GZ, UQ and nowhere else (e.G. mirrors of some articles)

(It doesn't make sense to release this stuff in the GEN-Forum e.G.)

I have a list of 20 people (and more)who i think are directly
involved in 911.
But right now i will concentrate on the AnthraxPharmagate for a while to find more ties.

Anyone who wants to help out is welcome.

I don't support any RedHerring stories like HarkenHerring, which was obviously planted by some fascist democrats themselves to get rid of the discussion about their involvement and accomplicement in 911 or the sabotage of the 911-hearings.
(Feinstein, Graham and the rest of the CFR-gang...)
I don't even wanna waste time to discuss this.

We still have no time to loose. New Bin Laden videos are fast produced and Wolfowitz is plotting in Turkey.
You can think about my opinion what you want, but DU sleeps big time right now.

Here in the 911-forum is enough support to continue presenting our evidence for LIHOP and we will continue to prove a SETUP later as well. But first comes LIHOP in public and then we will see.

Any Disinfo-disturbance or Anti-911Skeptic i will ignore.
You can find a lot of them in the bomb/remote-topics.

Props to my friends who try to survive in these threads, they didn't get any help by the DU-admins yet.

So i will try my best here and it's always a pleasure to meet you, Wonk

9. Personally I'd love the FBI to investigate Carlyle
It be nice to see who they invest in...maybe find a trail to 911. It's hard to pin things on Bush because he has so many dirty deals...it unbelieveable.

Course as long as our intel institutions are owned by the Regime it ain't gonna happen.

11. FBI?
LAST EDITED ON Jul-16-02 AT 04:28 AM (ET)

Who is the FBI?

There will be no investigation by the FBI on Carlyle.
Was that a bad joke?
We also already found dozens of ties between 911 and Carlyle.
This is a case for an independent 911-commission, nothing else,
We're talking here about a post-fascism/pro 911-truth revealment-scenario.

Why should i concentrate on Carlyle again in this topic?
We don't need to. Carlyle has its own chapter.
A couple of weeks ago they wrote "Pt.69" and sold their dirty weapons to India/Paki, together with BAe.

This is already archived.
Carlyle is pretty much off-topic for me in this topic.

It's like the CFR. They are involved everywhere anyway, but we need indivudual names. As long as we can't find them, i concentrate on what i have only.
And please don't tell me you found any damning evidence against Frank Carlucci.

So back to the Hatfill-Hauer-BioDefenseBudget -topic please...

7. 911PharmaGate Pt.2
LAST EDITED ON Jul-16-02 AT 03:15 AM (ET)

I decided now to sniff on EVERY bio pharmacy company,
who received a Bio(Defense)-Budget in late October/November 2001 to find the strongest ties to the (shadow)-government.

Even if we can prove, that Stephen Hatfill (Batelle) was behind the anthrax letter attack, he didn't act alone.
We have to find out, who gave him (or someone else, if it wasn't Hatfill) the OK.

You have to realise:
They still script the fake profile,
that this attack was about racism or right-wing ideals.

But it wasn't. 911-Anthrax Gate was a military coup about money.
Keep in mind. A few of these companies maybe sponsored the 911masterplan, the war and the anthrax-attack.

So let us start with the list of the companies, who got 911-$$$:


CEPHEID
=======================================================
Cepheid, for me a more unknown company is obviously only one year old and has an interesting profile.
It looks, like they profited from the DNA-Test-Business.

From a BioStocks-Newsletter one year ago (June 2001):

http://www.prohostonline.com/_disc13/0000000d.htm

"...Cepheid develops testing products for genetic profiling, DNA purification, the detection of food and water contaminants, and other applications. The Smart Cycler, its flagship product, is a DNA amplification (rapid duplication) and detection system for life science research. Partners Fischer Scientific, Eurogentec, and Takara Shuzo sell the system in select markets in North America, Europe, and Asia, respectively.

Cepheid is also developing GeneXpert, a system designed to extract and examine DNA from blood samples, spores, and bacteria from water samples. Aridia, its joint venture with Canada's Infection Diagnostic, is developing molecular diagnostic tests for bacterial and fungal infections." Here’s what’s caught my interest.

1) They're also in Rapid Analysis Techniques. This is a very broad area and will have multiple winners and superior growth. This company has its feet in Biodefense, Water & Food sampling, Pharmacogenomics, etc. Only needs a couple of semi-winners to garner impressive returns.

2) Sales and research collaborations give an indication that the science is pretty sound and the management is working.

3) They have an existing product being sold with some major partners - Cepheid Smart Cycler(R) system. They’ve made numerous agreements to sell Smart Cycler around the world, and sales are growing.

4) Market Cap is very small at ~ $78 million. A lot of room for growth here.

5) Cash position is good for over 2 years. They had ~ $40 million at end of year 2000. Burn rate is $12 to $18 million per year. Link to Quarterly results: http://www.biospace.com/news_story.cfm?StoryID=4084704&full=1

6)
Cepheid, of Sunnyvale, Calif., has made a battery-operated instrument that uses PCR to identify a bioterrorism agent in the field. The company says it also has developed a device to prepare a biological sample that can be analyzed. Scientist Magazine:
http://www.the-scientist.com/yr2001/jul/black_p8_010723.html

University of Pittsburgh And Cepheid (CPHD) Develop Rapid Genetic Test That May Help Cancer Patients Avoid Second Surgeries: http://www.biospace.com/news_story.cfm?StoryID=4951904&full=1

Cepheid Schedules Second Quarter 2001 Financial Results and Conference Call July 19, 2001 2:00:00 PM ET SUNNYVALE, Calif.,

July 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Cepheid CPHD announced plans to release its second quarter 2001 results on Tuesday, July 24, 2001 after the close of market. In conjunction with the release, management will host a conference call the same day at 4:30 p.m. (Eastern). The call will be simultaneously broadcast over the Internet.

Cepheid's (CPHD) U.S. Army Development Contract Expanded For Integrated Pathogen Detection Cepheid (Nasdaq: CPHD) today announced that the United States Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) has expanded the scope and increased funding for its development contract from $1.35M to $1.9M for the development of accelerated, fully automated DNA analysis systems that process and detect pathogenic spores...."

http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/08-07-2000/0001284761&EDATE=


========================================================
Now let us look on their board profile:

http://www.cepheid.com/pages/about.html

"...Cepheid is dedicated to applying breakthrough microfluidics and microelectronics technologies to revolutionary test systems for DNA analysis applications. We refer to this remarkable merger between microelectronics and molecular biology as Cepheid microDiagnostics™..."

Who is in the management, any familiar names?:

http://www.cepheid.com/pages/management.html

John Bishop— Chief Executive Officer and Director
Kurt Petersen, PhD— President, Chief Operations Officer and Director
Cathy Smith— Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer
Lee Christel, PhD— Vice President of Engineering
Cris McReynolds— Vice President of Business Development & marketing
Bill McMillan— Vice President of Biotechnology

so far, no familiar name for me, so i checked their bios.
But i couldn't find anything catchy or fishy, maybe someone else will.

On the Board of Directors is:

Thomas Gutshall
Kurt Petersen, PhD
Jerry Casilli
Dean Morton
Cristina H. Kepner
Robert J. Easton
Hollings C. Renton

Many interesting background infos, but no interesting ties for me. I noticed that Dean Morton served on the Board of Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, which i will investigate on ties to Monterey Language Institute.

CEPHEID has also a Scientific Advisory Board

Professor Gregory Kovacs, MD, PhD
Professor Stanley Falkow, PhD
Tony Godfrey, PhD
Professor Richard Zare, PhD
Ann Warford, PhD
Professor Bruce Darling, PhD
Professor Dorian Liepmann, PhD
David Relman, MD

I also checked their bios:

For sure most of them magistered in Stanford or other famous Universities, which is no significance for me right now.

David Relman, MD had for me the most interesting ties:
He has served on advisory panels for the Infectious Diseases Society of America, NIH, FDA, American Society for Microbiology, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the Department of Defense

So right now not much spectacular about this company, but some names we should keep an eye on it.

A short look into their news was more interesting.

Some highlights:

http://www.cepheid.com/pages/news.html

Detecting Bioterrorism
Technology Review, 2001-12-01

http://www.techreview.com/magazine/dec01/talbot.asp
http://www.gyre.org/news/cache/1409

"...In the coming months, the U.S. Department of Defense hopes to roll out a new truck- or ship-mounted system that continually samples and tests air for worrisome pathogens, says Calvin Chue, a microbiologist at the Center for Civilian Biodefense Studies at Johns Hopkins's Bloomberg School of Public Health.

The system, being manufactured by DeLand, FL-based Intellitec and Columbus, OH-based Battelle, uses a laser system and software developed at MIT's Lincoln Laboratory to continually screen microscopic particles in the air. When something worrisome shows up, a detector mixes an air sample into a solution and tests for up to 10 pathogens using thin paper strips, each bearing antibodies for an anticipated biological agent (see "Sensing Airborne Pathogens").

The device can operate autonomously, beaming results back to a base station; new cartridges can be inserted to test for different pathogens. In addition, Cepheid is adapting its detection system for use in the air sampler..."
