Huge buildings could be built in space using radio waves to move the pieces into place. Radio-controlled construction would make it unnecessary to move heavy construction equipment into orbit. It would also eliminate the need for space-walking construction workers. Engineer Narayanan Komerath got the idea from “acoustic shaping,” in which sound waves are used to build solid objects in weightless environments.

Australian scientists think lemon juice could be a cheap and effective form of birth control, as well as help stop the spread of AIDS. Roger Short says lab tests show that lemon juice kills off sperm and HIV. This is one of the secrets of birth control and venereal disease protection in the days before the Pill or the diaphragm.
Short believes lemons could be an alternative to costly HIV-drugs and traditional forms of contraceptives in developing countries. They can be used as a contraceptive by soaking a cotton ball in the juice and inserting it into the vagina before sex. “We can show in the lab that lemon juice is very effective in immobilizing human sperm and also very effective in killing HIV,” he says.

Talking of disappeared Nazis, you spoke (with Nick Cook on Sept. 28 Dreamland) of a place in Chile that was only recently closed down. Unfortunately, I must inform you that such place, formerly known as ‘Colonia Dignidad,’ still exists.” A former SS officer used local slave labor to build an empire, where he founded a hospital that sterilizes poor against their will and steals their newborn children. He has sexually abused hundreds of minors. U.S. citizen Boris Weisfeiler was captured by Augusto Pinochet and taken to Colonia Dignidad, where he has never been seen again.

Images of a UFO were captured by a surveillance camera mounted on top of the Kota Kinabalu International Airport terminal in Mayaysia last week. The craft has been described as looking like a “flying coffin.”
The security officers monitoring the revolving camera were surprised to see an unknown object flying across the screen and disappearing within seconds. A security guard in the area saw the UFO rising from near the ocean, flying at great speed over the terminal, then disappearing behind the adjacent hills. He says, “There was no sound at all.”
People have been seeing UFOs and ETs for a long time, although some people, like Native Americans, have kept it a secret. Learn these secrets from Nancy Red Star in ?Legends of the Star Ancestors,?click here. read more
