Ayr head coach Kenny Murray joins Glasgow Warriors

GLASGOW Warriors have added Ayr head coach Kenny Murray to their coaching team. Murray, a Glasgow native who led the RBS Premiership side to a league and cup double last season, will join the Scotstoun outfit next month.

In the new full-time role, he will work alongside existing coaches Shade Munro and Matt Taylor and support head coach Gregor Townsend.

Murray celebrated leading Ayr to their first Premiership title in his first year in charge in 2009 and the Millbrae side went on to win the RBS Cup three times under his guidance.

Murray said: ?I am absolutely delighted to be appointed as a new assistant coach of Glasgow Warriors.

?This is a fantastic opportunity for me to develop my career and work alongside some very good coaches, who are already at the club.

?I have mixed emotions as I?ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at Ayr. Although I?m sad to be leaving I know they?re in good hands.

?It?s an exciting time to be joining the Warriors and I can?t wait to be involved in professional rugby and to start working with everyone at the club.?

Townsend added: ?We?re delighted to bring Kenny on board.

?He is a hard working individual, who has brought success to Ayr over the last five years and we will now benefit from having him at Glasgow Warriors.

?Kenny was the ideal candidate for the role, which will provide us with valuable coaching support. He will help us build on what we achieved last season.?

Murray has now been replaced as Ayr head coach by his former assistant Peter Laverie.

Ayr RFC president Billy McHarg said: ?The club would like to offer its congratulations to Kenny on his appointment to Glasgow Warriors.

?I?m sure he will be a huge asset to the professional side and will become an important part of Gregor?s team.

?This is a positive a move for Scottish rugby, which further cements our already strong relationship with the Warriors.?

Celgene raises full-year outlook on strong cancer drug sales

(Reuters) - Biotechnology firm Celgene Corp raised its full-year earnings forecast for the second time in three months after it reported a quarterly profit above analysts' estimates, as its cancer drugs, Revlimid and Abraxane, continued to post strong sales growth.

Celgene shares rose 4 percent to $142 in trading before the bell on Thursday.

The company said it now expects 2013 adjusted earnings of $5.80 to $5.90 per share, up from its prior view of $5.55 to $5.65 per share.

It expects sales of $6.2 billion, up from $6.0 billion forecast earlier.

Second-quarter net income rose to $478.1 million, or $1.11 per share, from $367.4 million, or 82 cents per share, a year earlier.

Excluding one-time items, Celgene earned $1.52 per share.

Analysts on average expected a profit of $1.44 per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

Total revenue rose 17 percent to $1.60 billion, narrowly beating analysts' estimate of $1.54 billion.

Sales of the company's flagship blood cancer drug Revlimid, approved for use in multiple myeloma, mantle cell lymphoma and a blood disorder, rose 13 percent to $1.05 billion, driven by market share gains.

Multiple myeloma is the second-most-commonly diagnosed blood cancer.

Revlimid has been in the news after Celgene said last week that it would stop a late-stage trial of the drug due to a higher number of deaths in leukemia patients taking the drug compared with those on another treatment.

Analysts, however, had said the trial closure would not affect their sales estimates for the drug that brought in sales of $3.8 billion in 2012.

Sales of another big growth engine for Celgene, Abraxane, used to treat breast and lung cancer, rose 41 percent to $155 million, helped by its strong demand in the United States for use in lung cancer.

Celgene's new multiple myeloma treatment, Pomalyst, sold $66 million in its first full quarter of sales. The drug was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in February and is expected to reach the billion-dollar sales mark by 2016.

Shares of Summit, New Jersey-based Celgene closed at $135.99 on the Nasdaq on Wednesday.

U.S. intelligence officials warn Congress not to curb data collection

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. spy chiefs joined ranks on Wednesday against efforts in Congress to sharply curtail the National Security Agency's vast data collection program, warning that would endanger an essential intelligence tool.

In an unusually public discourse on a secret spying program, James Clapper, the director of national intelligence, joined the White House and senior Republican lawmakers who oversee the intelligence agencies in cautioning against cutting funding for NSA's data collection.

Clapper, in a statement, urged an "open and candid discussion" about foreign surveillance efforts and "careful consideration of the potential effect of limiting the intelligence community's capabilities" under the current law.

Intelligence officials are worried about a proposed amendment to the defense appropriations bill in the House of Representatives which would end the NSA's broad authority to collect a vast number of communications records, including records on telephone calls.

The House was expected to consider it on Wednesday.

The measure proposed by Representative Justin Amash, a Tea Party-backed conservative Republican, is the first such move since former NSA contractor Edward Snowden leaked details of surveillance programs that collect and store huge volumes of electronic communications like phone call records and emails.

Amash has expressed confidence the amendment will pass. Will Adams, a spokesman for the Michigan congressman, said, "We are optimistic that we will have the votes to get it across the finish line."

Clapper's statement came amid a push against the proposal by the White House and other senior intelligence officials, including Army General Keith Alexander, the head of the NSA, who visited lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Tuesday to warn about the implications of the amendment.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said in a statement late on Tuesday that Obama welcomed a debate on safeguarding privacy, but opposed Amash's amendment, saying it would "hastily dismantle one of our intelligence community's counterterrorism tools."

Senior House Republicans, including Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers and Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon, circulated a letter to colleagues urging them to oppose the amendment.

"While many members have legitimate questions about the NSA metadata program, including whether there are sufficient protections for Americans' civil liberties, eliminating this program altogether without careful deliberation would not reflect our duty ... to provide for the common defense," they said.
