Rubber Egg
[...] Tonight, when I went out to put the chickens in for the night, I was confronted by this odd-looking egg sitting in the grass outside his coop. I gave it a little tap with the toe of my boot, thinking it was cracked and not worth picking up, and it bounced and rolled across the grass, unharmed.
So apparently, the chickens need a little more calcium in their diet. [...]

Œuf-en-Ternois
Inscrite aux Monuments historiques, l'ancienne église d'Œuf en a été rayée en 1951 pour permettre sa reconstruction. Elle avait été détruite durant les bombardements de 1944, à l'exception d'une partie du clocher.
Dans l'église Saint-Martin, des fragments du bas-relief de Guillaume d'Œuf (1469) ont été sauvés, et restent inscrits au patrimoine de France.

Accutane – the truth that had to be told

In 2001 Hoffman-La Roche's drug Accutane was selling in its billions worldwide as a treatment for acne. For those who suffered from extreme scarring acne, it was something of a miraculous treatment, however evidence started to mount that for others it was a death sentence. Over the next few years it was estimated that between 300 and 3,000 young people being prescribed Accutane since its launch had committed suicide or killed others.
In 2001 the father of young man in Ireland who had committed suicide approached Dr. Doug Bremner as Professor of Psychiatry & Radiology at Emory University to see if he could find a causal link between the drug and depression. His findings were that the drug did have an effect on the brain likely to cause acute depression in some patients, which was not surprising as it is a molecular cousin of Vitamin A which is known to cause depression in excessive quantities.
One might think that Hoffman-La Roche would have welcomed these findings. After all, no-one was doubting that Accutane was an extremely effective remedy in many cases, it was just that it appeared to have lethal side-effects in others.
You might like to think again on that one.
"The Goose That Laid The Golden Egg" is the account of what Hoffman-La Roche did next, which was to prosecute a determined, energetic and vindictive campaign against Dr. Bremner designed to suppress his findings and destroy his career and livelihood.
Nonetheless, Dr. Bremner persisted and Hoffman-La Roche have since withdrawn Accutane from the US market, not only for its potentially depressive effects, but also for the likelihood of its causing birth defects and stunting growth.

The Goose that laid the Golden Egg
A poor woman was gathering fuel-fallen branches ; she bore them upon her back, and carried her little child at her breast, and was now on her way home. She saw the golden swan, the Swan of Good Fortune, spring up from the rushy banks.
What was that gleaming there ? A golden egg - it was still warm. She laid it in her bosom, and the warmth remained ; there was certainly life in the egg. Yes, there was a pecking inside the shell ; she heard it ; and thought it was her own heart that was beating.
SourceThis fable is quite different from the Aesop's Fable.
