Egyptian Princess Mummy Had Oldest Known Heart Disease An ancient Egyptian princess might have been able to postpone her mummification if she had cut the calories and exercised more, medical experts say. Known as Ahmose Meryet Amon, the princess lived some 3,500 years ago and died in her 40s. She was entombed at the Deir el-Bahri royal mortuary temple on the west bank of the Nile, opposite to the city of Luxor. (Take an ancient-Egypt quiz.) The princess's mummified body is among those now housed at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Recent scans of 52 of the museum's mummies revealed almost half of the dead have clogged arteries—including the princess. (Related: "King Tut Mysteries Solved: Was Disabled, Malarial, and Inbred.") Ahmose Meryet Amon—"Child of the Moon, Beloved of Amun"—had blockages in five major arteries, including those that supply blood to the brain and heart, said study co-leader Gregory Thomas, a professor of cardiology at the University of California, Irvine. "She would require a double bypass."
How to Debunk Chemtrails The chemtrail conspiracy theory seems to frequently misidentify ordinary contrails as “chemtrails” – some kind of secret spraying program. This theory comes in many flavors, and there’s a large number of things people bring up as “evidence” to support this theory. I’ve tried to gather all the debunks of this evidence in one place here, for easy reference. While the title of this post is “How to Debunk Chemtrails”, the actual debunking depends on what version of the theory needs debunking. The most common version is simply that “normal” contrails should not persist, so the persistent trails must be “chemtrails”. With discussion and reference here: After that, there’s a variety of common claims, and variations on those themes. I’ve tried to arrange each section in the order of most useful links first. Contrails Through History But they didn’t. About the Chemtrail theory
The era of closed science is over. Voodoo Contrails over Los Angeles I was walking along this morning at around 10AM, when I noticed a huge semi circular contrail, somewhere to the south of LAX. This is something I’ve never seen before. The weather was very well suited for contrails, and there were quite a few criss-crossing the sky. Then about half an hour later I saw another one. You’ll have to take my word for it – it was very impressive. [UPDATE 12/4/08] Here’s one titled “A perfect circle”: 11/20/08 – “A Perfect circle in the morning”, taken by Bettina Gilois, Pacific Palisades, CA: So what was it? That’s the guy. Which means it’s a B722, flying at 29,100 feet, speed 377 knots, and it took off from LAX and is going to land there. What is VOODOO1? Here’s the satellite photo for the region in the map, showing the high level wispy clouds, and some contrails. The photo was taken around noon, by which time the plane was no longer leaving trails. UPDATE NOv 8th 2011 – It happened again. This must be a somewhat regular occurrence.
Moved By Light Welcome to Quantumville. Population: uncertain. Walk down Main Street, lined with blurry cars simultaneously moving and remaining still. See the house with the curtains drawn? Janel Kiley DAMPING THE WOBBLE | For decades, scientists have used light to quell the vibrations of individual atoms.
Les effets biologiques des retombées de la géo-ingénierie sur la vie végétale Les traînées d’avion persistantes sont bourrées de nano-particules, ce sont des « chemtrails » L’étude traduite et recopiée ci-dessous a été préparée par des chercheurs norvégiens. Elle contribue à documenter quelques-uns des effets hautement néfastes des programmes de GSA (géo-ingénierie stratosphérique par aérosols) et de GRS (gestion des radiations solaires) en cours. Il ne subsiste désormais plus de sources « organiques » de nourriture. Tout a été pollué avec les métaux toxiques et les produits chimiques qui sont émis par les programmes mondiaux de vaporisation d’aérosols. Certains des éléments toxiques que nous sommes contraints d’ingérer dans notre alimentation ont été identifiés, d’autres sont sans doute encore inconnus.

Scientists create laser-producing living cell Scientists have managed to create the world’s first living laser, using nothing more than some jellyfish proteins and some embryonic human kidneys. The team behind the research – Malte Gather and Seok-Hyun Yun, of the Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital respectively – managed to get a single living cell to emit green laser light, according to a paper in Nature Photonics . They used a genetic code for a mutant version of a protein found in glowing jellyfish, known as GFP, to create the light. They then inserted the genes necessary for producing the Enhanced GFP (eGFP) into cells grown from embryonic human kidney cells. The glowing part-human part-jellyfish part-glowstick kidney cells were then placed between two mirrors only 20 micrometers across, then bathed it in pulses of blue light of steadily increasing intensity.
Seafloor Samples Show Troubling Effects Of Oil Spill « Beyond the Walls in Biology “Modern technology, owes ecology an apology.” On December 9, 2010 scientists were trying to observe the oil from the BP blowout so they dived in a mini-submarine into the sea’s floor. Half a mile of inky black water was soft and delegate, but once the subs lights illuminated, the bottom of the scene was filled with fish and shrimps around the seafloor, as well as crabs. As they reached the seafloor, they saw a brown haze covering the seafloor, that signified fan coral that was dead. As they searched around they passed a feature called , “Sleeping Dragon,” ( like large pieces of ice). This is known as a home for creatures that are adapted to living near natural petroleum ( seeps. website : Like this: Like Loading...
