NEW YORK (AP) Amylin Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Eli Lilly and Co, http://www.cheaptomsshoesoutletstore.us - toms shoes online . said Friday that a panel advising the European Medicines Agency recommended a new approval for their diabetes drug Byetta. The advisory panel recommended that Byetta be approved for use in combination with basal insulin with or without other common diabetes treatments in patients who have not been able to get their blood sugar under control with the other treatments.  If the agency grants approval, that would allow Amylin and Lilly to market the drug to those patients. The EMA is expected to make a decision in two or three months. It does not have to follow the committee's advice, but often does so. Byetta, or exenatide, is a twice-a-day injection. It was first approved in Europe in 2006. That approval allowed Lilly to market the drug for patients who did not have sufficient blood sugar control on common diabetes medications like metformin. Amylin and Lilly announced in November that they are ending their collaboration on Byetta and its successor, http://www.cheaptomsshoesoutletstore.us - toms shoes on sale , Bydureon, which is designed to be taken once per week. Amylin is gradually taking over marketing of Byetta outside the U.S. Amylin is based in San Diego and Eli Lilly in Indianapolis. Shares of Amylin slipped 6 cents to $18.01 in morning trading while Lilly stock picked up 30 cents to $39.02. Copyright 2012 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

 By SLOBODAN LEKIC, Associated Press BRUSSELS (AP) Governments opposed to the European Union's new carbon emissions tax for airlines should not underestimate its determination to curb climate-changing gases, http://zyrmall.kr342.dnsnn.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=572520 - http://zyrmall.kr342.dnsnn.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=572520 , the EU's climate chief warned Friday.  Connie Hedegaard, the European commissioner for climate action, also challenged nations that don't like the EU program to propose their own ways of cutting carbon emissions, rather than just criticizing the plan which went into effect on Jan. 1. "We must hear from the parties that don't like the EU scheme ... what exactly do they want, what do they like, rather than saying just what they do not like," she said. Under the system, which went into effect at the start of the year, airlines flying to or from Europe must obtain certificates for carbon dioxide emissions. They will get free credits to cover most flights this year but must buy or trade for credits to cover the rest.

They are due to meet in Moscow next week to consider a joint response. EU officials have cited a doubling of aviation carbon emissions in Europe between 1990 and 2006 and the inability of governments to forge a global deal on reducing emissions as reasons
