 BioMed Central | Full text | A community programme to reduce salt intake and blood pressure in Ghana [ISRCTN88789643]
Villages were randomised in blocks of two, and stratified for locality (semi-urban or rural) by an independent statistician [26].
An average of 70 participants completing the trial from each village would allow a change in systolic BP of 4.8 mmHg to be detected with 90% power, using a 5% significance level, assuming the standard deviation of the change in BP to be 12.6 mmHg and the intra cluster correlation coefficient to be 0.02 [26].
We have arrived at estimates of BP and salt intake in the Ashanti region of Ghana, and have gathered data on the efficacy and potential effectiveness of a programme of a modest reduction in salt intake in reducing the BP of African villagers.

 [Kabar-Irian] Irian News - 3/28/05   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
BP has begun work to extract trillions of cubic feet of gas from under the seabed of Bintuni Bay: by 2008, the "Tangguh" project should begin feeding millions of tonnes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to voracious markets in China, the US, and beyond.
As BP was due to stop delivering food parcels a few months after my visit, such inactivity raised the spectre of an emerging culture of dependency.
John O'Reilly, who as a BP vice-president was in charge of all Tangguh's "external relations" and community-development programmes, left in 2003 after, he says, falling out with the company over how best to react to human-rights abuses, should they occur.

 Corporate accountability: BP risks its reputation on Caspian pipeline | Special reports | The Observer
BP, with a 34.1 per cent stake the dominant member of the 10-company consortium building the pipeline, says every effort has been made to carry out an environmental assessment of the route, and that it is seeking to minimise disruption and compensate landowners.
BP wants to start construction this spring and last month wrote to Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze demanding his government speed up its environmental assessment of the project.
Although BP says no one will be displaced, the Kurdish Human Rights Project (KHRP) believes the pipeline will be used as an excuse to prevent Kurds from returning to their villages following civil wars between the Turks and the Kurds.

The ancient technique of building a coiled pot involves squeezing, squashing and smoothing the successive layers of coils into a thin even wall which swells or tapers as it grows and encloses a shape.

The remnants of a village near the confluence of the Grosvenor and Savonoski rivers dates from about 1800 BP; this village, like that along the Brooks River, is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Katmai village, near the south end of the park's coastal strip, was a trading post of the Russian American Company from 1799 to 1867, and was the only location known where European-based peoples resided.
