News Update 5 December 2015 I think most of us have thought of octopuses as being some of the strangest creatures on the earth and maybe we were correct according to some scientists, because they now think these creatures did not come from here. Here being the operative phrase. They came to the conclusion the creatures are basically aliens after examining their DNA. The genome sequence is like nothing they have ever seen and is far more complex than even ours. Not only is this strange, but they have what are being called jumping genes, which move around their genome. It is different from every other animal and it has a problem solving ability which sets it apart. When octopus tissue was examined hundreds of octopus-specific genes were found which exist in no other animal. The octopus genome is slightly smaller than a human’s, but it contains more genes. Unlike other animals there are no groupings of genes with related functions, instead they are scattered throughout the octopus genome. Type of spacecraft seen by Garry McKinnon online. Gary McKinnon, the famous hacker who hacked NASA and other military sites, has been interviewed again. He talked about how he got interested in UFOs and how the Disclosure Conference peaked his interest. He said not only was the NASA websites very easy to get into because they used an office protocol which was not protected, the same was true for the US Army and US Navy sites. He also said something very scary, he said people were in there from countries from all over the world doing the same thing he was. When he got into the Johnson Space Center computers every machine had a blank administrative password so he was able to control all the machines. While on one machine he said he saw a cylindrical spaceship with a geodesic domes on the front and geodesic domes one on each side. He said the Americans tried to name him the 9/11 hacker even thought he had nothing to do with it. It is bad enough we don’t label genetically modified foods in this country, but now China is going to construct the world’s biggest cloning factory for animals. They want to create millions of dogs, horses and cattle. It is being setup by a Chinese firm, but they are not alone, they are being helped by a South Korean biotech company Sooam Biotech. This is the same company which years ago claimed to have cloned a human and caused a huge controversy. Production is said to start next year. They are going to start with 100,000 cattle embryos and work their way up to the millions. Social media has been buzzing about this and many are saying they don’t believe people are very ready to eat cloned meat. They also pointed out the site being built is near a chemical plant which exploded last year killing 165 people and also mentioned that China already has a big food safety problem. Some engineers think they have found a cheap way to store energy and that is by placing balloons under water. The idea is to use compressed air. The water pressure allows the balloons to hold more pressure as the water squeezes them. The balloons are relatively cheap and the compressed air can last twice as long as a charged battery. The idea is to turn the electrical energy into compressed air and pump it into the underwater balloons. It is quite simple. One has only to let the generated electricity power a compressor. Heat is generated from the compressors and that too is stored. When the energy from the balloons is needed, the air is released and allowed to turn a generator. Doctors in Kenya from the Catholic Doctors Association are charging that UNICEF and WHO are sterilizing millions of girls in their country, because the vaccine they have given out contains a sterilizing factor. The vaccine is for an anti-tetanus program. The government is saying the vaccine is perfectly safe, but the doctor’s association stated they had six different samples tested which came from around the country and used an independent laboratory in South Africa for the testing. The doctors said all six samples tested positive for the HCG antigen which is commonly used in anti-fertility vaccines. |
