Completes Transition to Biomarker Discovery and Diagnostic Test Development Company

SYDNEY, Australia, Nov 14, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Proteome Systems Ltd (ASX:PXL) (TDX Pending) announced today that shareholders have voted in favour of an official name change to Tyrian Diagnostics Limited.

  2. Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
