Cloned animals may die young, according to the first study of their lifespans, carried out by Japanese researchers on mice.

Cloning involves removing the nucleus from an egg and replacing it with the nucleus of a donor cell. Many of the embryos created in this way never develop or miscarry, and even after birth some clones die. But up to now, cloning scientists have insisted that the few survivors can be perfectly normal.

But Atsuo Ogura of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases in Tokyo says his work suggests that some effects of cloning are not apparent in the days, weeks or even years after birth. ?It is very probable that, at least for some populations of clones, some unpredictable defects will appear in the long run,? he says.

In 1999, residents of Kokomo, Indiana began hearing a constant low-pitched rumbling noise. They developed a range of mysterious health problems soon afterwards, including dizziness, diarrhea, extreme fatigue, joint and muscle pain, nosebleeds, and headaches. No one could figure out where it was coming from.

The Kokomo Hum isn?t the first complaint about strange low-frequency noise and related health problems. The Taos Hum in New Mexico drove residents crazy in the early 1990s?they complained about a persistent deep droning noise and accompanying headaches and illnesses.

Just as with the Taos hum, some people say it?s like a diesel engine idling, while others describe it as a deep drone or fluorescent light-like buzz?and many people don?t hear it at all.read more

The cup embossed on her skirt symbolizes the fact that the painting is meant to represent her as being pregnant with the child of Jesus. This remarkable ancient secret belief was discussed with Realm of the Ring Lords author Laurence Gardner on the February 16, 2002 Dreamland.

The American relatives of Adolf Hitler have entered into a pact to end the family bloodline. David Gardner, a British writer investigating the Hitler family tracked down a nephew who grew up in England, moved to America and had three sons. Those sons, who dropped the Hitler name, agreed never to have any children.

The three brothers live in Long Island, New York, and avoid publicity. Their father, William Patrick Hitler, is long dead. They live with their mother. Gardner gathered plenty of documentary evidence, including birth dates, before he approached the family in Long Island.
