AI Is Transforming Google Search. The Rest of the Web Is Next
Yesterday, the 46-year-old Google veteran who oversees its search engine, Amit Singhal, announced his retirement. And in short order, Google revealed that Singhal’s rather enormous shoes would be filled by a man named John Giannandrea. On one level, these are just two guys doing something new with their lives. But you can also view the pair as the ideal metaphor for a momentous shift in the way things work inside Google—and across the tech world as a whole.
US Citizens To Be Guinea Pigs For GMO Banana Experiments
(SOTT) A vitamin-enhanced ‘super-banana’ developed by scientists is to be tested on humans. The trials are to take place in the US over a six-week period. Researchers aim to start growing the fruit in Uganda by 2020. The bananas are ‘super’ because they have been genetically engineered to have increased levels of vitamin A – a deficiency of which can be fatal. Hundreds of thousands die annually worldwide from vitamin A deficiencies, while many others go blind, the project’s leader told AFP. “The consequences of vitamin A deficiency are dire with 650,000-700,000 children worldwide dying…each year and at least another 300,000 going blind,” Professor James Dale stated.
A Bioengineered 'Pancreas' Has Ended One Diabetic's Need For Insulin
In Brief A year after receiving a new type of islet cell transplant to treat her severe diabetes, a patient continues to do well and no longer needs insulin injections to manage her disease. A Happy Anniversary Even the most exciting breakthrough medical treatment can be rendered obsolete by a particularly insurmountable obstacle: time.
Seven Food Modifications To Avoid
Photo credit: bigstock.com Since the advent of modern food production after World War II, corporations have used a number of methods to boost sales of highly processed food products. These chemical modifications are not necessarily beneficial to the consumer, but they do benefit the corporations. Despite all the news about genetically modified organics (GMO’s) in recent years, they have been around for over 30 years. Toxic chemicals have been introduced into food production at almost every stage.
5D Quartz Coin Can Store All Human History for 14 Billion Years
By Jake Anderson Nicknamed the “Superman memory crystal,” a new storage device made of nanostructured glass can archive 360 terabytes worth of information for billions of years. Created by scientists at the University of Southampton using femtosecond laser writing, the sliver of fused quartz coin can withstand temperatures up to 157 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). It is an example of 5D optical data storage. The research team from the University’s Optoelectronics Research Center first experimentally tested the technology in 2013.

33 blood-cancer patients have dramatic clinical remission with new T-cell therapy
Image of a group of killer T cells (green and red) surrounding a cancer cell (blue, center) (credit: NIH) Chinese doctors have reported success with a new type of immunotherapy for multiple myeloma*, a blood cancer: 33 out of 35 patients in a clinical trial had clinical remission within two months. The researchers used a type of T cell called “chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T.”** In a phase I clinical trial in China, the patient’s own T cells were collected, genetically reprogrammed in a lab, and injected back into the patient. The reprogramming involved inserting an artificially designed gene into the T-cell genome, which helped the genetically reprogrammed cells find and destroy cancer cells throughout the body.
GMOs - The Ultimate Killing Machine - Health Wealth & Happiness - Relfe.com
What are GMOs? The Ultimate Killing Machine It looks the same—the bread, pies, sodas, even corn on the cob. So much of what we eat every day looks just like it did 20 years ago. But something profoundly different has happened without our knowledge or consent. And according to leading doctors, what we don’t know is already hurting us big time.
Scientists Developing Directed Energy Laser Weapon "Death Star" to Destroy Asteroids
By Piper McGowin Didn’t Tesla think of this first? A team at University of California is working on a planetary defense project they’ve dubbed the “De-Star” — Direct Energy System for Targeting Asteroids and exploRation (they apparently had to work really hard for the final “R” in that nickname there). Sounds like Ronald Reagan’s Star Wars program… or just the movie Star Wars. The laser weapon would be used to protect planet Earth from rogue asteroids by vaporizing them.
20 Declassified Files Proving Governmental Crime & Conspiracy - Part 2
Governmental crime & conspiracy is everywhere, but some still refuse to believe it. These 20 declassified files prove it. of governmental collusion, corruption, crime and conspiracy. They show the shocking extent to which groups of people, using and hiding behind the concept of “government”, have committed egregious acts of injury, harm and murder. However, thanks to the internet and the spread of information, we can access and verify what happened, and break through the denial.
Deadly gene mutations removed from human embryos in landmark study
Scientists have modified human embryos to remove genetic mutations that cause heart failure in otherwise healthy young people in a landmark demonstration of the controversial procedure. It is the first time that human embryos have had their genomes edited outside China, where researchers have performed a handful of small studies to see whether the approach could prevent inherited diseases from being passed on from one generation to the next. While none of the research so far has created babies from modified embryos, a move that would be illegal in many countries, the work represents a milestone in scientists’ efforts to master the technique and brings the prospect of human clinical trials one step closer. The work focused on an inherited form of heart disease, but scientists believe the same approach could work for other conditions caused by single gene mutations, such as cystic fibrosis and certain kinds of breast cancer.
