Case Of American
Cured Of AIDS In Germany Generates Enthusiasm In Stem Cell Approaches
The apparent success of a case in which German doctors cured a man of AIDS using a bone marrow transplant comes as no surprise to Gerhard Bauer, a UC Davis stem cell researcher. Bauer has been working for more than 10 years on a similar cure for AIDS based on replacing the devastated immune system of an HIV-infected patient with stem cells that have been engineered to resist human immunodeficiency syndrome.

ScienceDaily (Jan. 7, 2010) — Researchers from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie (HZB), in cooperation with colleagues from Oxford and Bristol Universities, as well as the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK, have for the first time observed a nanoscale symmetry hidden in solid state matter. They have measured the signatures of a symmetry showing the same attributes as the golden ratio famous from art and architecture.

Slime

A team of

WASHINGTON (AFP) A scan of brain activity can effectively read a person's mind, researchers said Thursday. British scientists from University College London found they could differentiate brain activity linked to different memories and thereby identify thought patterns by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).

Hen’s teeth revisited. Chickens don’t have teeth, they have beaks. But their ancestors did. “Thus, the cells of the chick pharyngeal arches, which have not made teeth for nearly 100 million years, still appear to have retained the genetic potential to respond to an appropriate inducer.” This is a powerful argument for evolution, showing that modern beak formation in chickens is the result of an evolutionary process, with the latent atavistic capacity of pre-avian tooth formation still present in a quiescent genetic program.

“The article is remarkable not just for its timeliness on the issue of mandatory vaccinations and public health policy, but also for its damning evidence that exposes the fraud and quackery of the vaccine industry (as well as the corruption at the CDC and WHO).”
Ed. Note: The relatively recently, significantly increased number of vaccinations and potential abuse of same in the U.S. is a critical topic which all Americans should become familiar with, especially those with children. Americans should acquaint themselves with comparisons of the components of vaccines manufactured in different countries and charges that U.S. vaccines are correlated with autism and other consequences. Political and financial motivations for mandatory vaccinations should be considered.

All the Vaccines Are Contaminated Every Last One of Them
This story is relinked from David Icke’s website. The interviews with Merck’s Dr. Maurice Hilleman in the You Tube segments will literally scare the shit out of you. Ed. Note. Not only vaccines but organ transplants have the potential to carry highly dangerous infectious diseases. Again, I urge all Americans to educate themselves on this topic as most doctors seem to be ignorant and just prescribe vaccines to our young without any critical review. Vaccines need to be evaluated on a case by case basis.
