God is a US American who picks US spokespeople for his biggest marketing
group, which is US American. There are translators for the ones from those
other little countries till the afterlife, when God will turn them into US
Americans and the whole world into America.

Does The Ethnical of the Governing Body represent the Whole World that is to be judged ?
by smiddy inaccording to witnesses the whole world is to be judged on their response to the message jw`s give in their d2d work.
shouldn`t the governing body represent all the nations of the world?
or at least the countrys with the major populations?

Science rules
by EntirelyPossible inhttp://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/johns_hopkins_researchers_return_blood_cells_to_stem_cell_state.
johns hopkins scientists have developed a reliable method to turn the clock back on blood cells, restoring them to a primitive stem cell state from which they can then develop into any other type of cell in the body.. the work, described in the aug. 8 issue of the journal public library of science (plos), is chapter two in an ongoing effort to efficiently and consistently convert adult blood cells into stem cells that are highly qualified for clinical and research use in place of human embryonic stem cells, says elias zambidis, m.d., ph.d., assistant professor of oncology and pediatrics at the johns hopkins institute for cell engineering and the kimmel cancer center.. taking a cell from an adult and converting it all the way back to the way it was when that person was a 6-day-old embryo creates a completely new biology toward our understanding of how cells age and what happens when things go wrong, as in cancer development, zambidis says.. chapter one, zambidis says, was work described last spring in plos one in which zambidis and colleagues recounted the use of this successful method of safely transforming adult blood cells into heart cells.
in the latest experiments, he and his colleagues now describe methods for coaxing adult blood cells to become so-called induced-pluripotent stem cells (ips) --- adult cells reprogrammed to an embryonic like state, and with unprecedented efficiencies.. zambidis says his team has managed to develop a super efficient, virus-free way to make ips cells, overcoming a persistent difficulty for scientists working with these cells in the laboratory.

New technology to transform blood processing
by TJ Curioso ina pioneering surgical blood salvage technology developed at the university of strathclyde, glasgow, is set to transform the way major surgery is carried out by reducing blood loss in patients.. .
hemosep is set to revolutionise the health care sector after gaining the ce mark and receiving canadian national approval, following highly successful clinical trials in the world leading university of kirikkale university hospital in ankara, turkey.. the device is designed to recover blood spilled during open-heart and major trauma surgery and concentrate the blood cells for transfusion back to the patient.
this process, known as autotransfusion, reduces the volume of donor blood required and the problems associated with transfusion reaction.. .

"gradually any remnant of the old murderous Blood Doctrine will fade in to
distant memory."The procedure is good for us all, but even 30 years ago most life saving
medical uses of blood/major blood products JWs aren't supposed to use were
performed outside the surgery room. -

ScienceDaily (Aug. 22, 2012) — Enzymes involved in breaking down fat
can now be manipulated to work three times harder by turning on a
molecular switch recently observed by chemists at the University of
Copenhagen. Being able to control this chemical on/off button could
have massive implications for curing diseases related to obesity in-
cluding diabetes, cardio vascular disease, stroke and even skin
problems like acne. But the implications may be wider.Possibly the most important discovery in enzymology
The results suggest that the switch may be a common characteristic
of many more enzymes. Since enzymes are miniscule worker-molecules
that control a vast variety of functions in cells, if the switches
are standard, it may well be one of the most important discoveries
in enzymology."If many enzymes turn out to be switched on in the same way as the
ones we've studied, this opens a door to understanding- and maybe
curing, a wide range of diseases," says professor Dimitrios Stamou.Stamou heads a multidisciplinary team of scientists at the Nanoscience Center
and Department of Chemistry at the University of Copenhagen who published their
discovery in the scientific journal Journal of the American Chemical Society.Switch contradicts previous understanding
The discovery of the enzymatic ignition key contradicts previous ideas of how
cells control the function of enzymes such as the fat eating lipase used in the
current study.Researchers used to think that these enzymes work continuously at varying
levels of efficiency. But in fact they are quite lazy. Very much like construc-
tion workers they work at a fixed efficiency for a given amount of time (working
hours), and then they rest. And that's good news for enzyme designers.Tripping their newfound switch resulted in tripling the working hours of
lipase enzymes, from 15 percent of the time to 45 percent by the Copenhagen
team.Function follows form
In enzymes, function is decided by the shape of the molecule. So making them
more efficient would have required a major reconstruction. In some cases so
difficult that it is on the order of transforming a handsaw into a chainsaw,
says the chemist, Assistant Professor Nikos Hatzakis, who was deeply involved
in the scrutiny of the enzymes."Changing the fundamental shape of a tool is always difficult. Whether it's
saw or an enzyme. But working longer hours with the same tool is infinitely
easier. What we've achieved, is to make enzymes work longer hours" explains
Hatzakis.Scrutiny on the Nanoscale
Observing that enzymes even have an on-off switch may sound easy, but first
the Bio Nano- team had to devise a way to study individual enzyme molecules.
These are so small, that there are trillions in just a drop of water. So measur-
ing the work of only one enzyme could be compared to looking down from the moon
to detect each time a carpenter in a building in Copenhagen swings his hammer.Light-emitting fat
To perform their studies the researchers chose a fat degrading lipase enzyme
model system in collaboration with Danish industrial enzyme producer Novozymes.They used "fat" that would emit light each time the enzyme took a bite. This
way they could monitor each and every catalytic cycle or single movement of
work. To ensure realism the enzymes were placed on an artificial cell wall. An
"in vivo like membrane system," says Stamou."Natural enzymes live in cells. Looking at them in a non native environment,
would tell us as much as looking at a carpenter working in outer space wearing
a space suit would tell us about builders," explains Dimitrios Stamou and con-
cludes:"Now that we have understood how to switch enzymes on and off we could use
this knowledge in the future both for curing diseases but also to design novel
enzymes for industrial applications."The research was supported by the Danish Research Councils and the Lundbeck
foundation.

Favorite Sitcom Scenes
by littlerockguy ini love this scene in sanford and son.
that sitcom was so groundbreaking in many ways.
this scene is now censored today in reruns on some cable channels.
