Tree from 2,000-year-old seed is doing well
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Thursday, June 12 @ 20:38:05 UTC (17 reads)
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer
WASHINGTON - Just over three years old and about four-feet tall, Methuselah is growing well. "It's lovely," Dr. Sarah Sallon said of the date palm, whose parents may have provided food for the besieged Jews at Masada some 2,000 years ago.
The little tree was sprouted in 2005 from a seed recovered from Masada, where rebelling Jews committed suicide rather than surrender to Roman attackers.
Radiocarbon dating of seed fragments clinging to its root, as well as other seeds found with it that didn't sprout, indicate they were about 2,000 years old — the oldest seed known to have been sprouted and grown.
Sallon, director of the Louis L. Borick Natural Medicine Research Center at Hadassah Medical Organization in Israel, updates the saga of Methuselah in Friday's edition of the journal Science.
One thing they don't know yet is whether it's a boy or girl. Date palms differ by sex, but experts can't tell the difference until the tree is six or seven years old, Sallon said.
She hopes there's a chance to use it to restore the extinct Judean date palm, once prized not only for its fruit but also for medicinal uses.
Washinton women claim sexual assault by ghost.
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Monday, April 28 @ 12:39:43 UTC (72 reads)
FEDERAL WAY, Wash. -- Two local women claim they've been sexually assaulted by ghosts.
According to a police report, the two women told officers a paranormal person has been placing sensors on their bodies and having intercourse with them at their apartment in the 28600 block of 25th Place South.
One of the women said the assault began when she lived in Kent and followed them to Federal Way. The second woman said her encounters began recently.
The maintenance man in charge of the apartment complex said the women keep calling him saying the ghosts are raping them on weekend nights. He finally told them to call police.
It's an odd case for cops, but it's right up Ross Allison's alley. He's a ghost hunter.
AP: Water makes US troops in Iraq sick
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Sunday, March 09 @ 20:44:27 UTC (122 reads)
Dozens of U.S. troops in Iraq fell sick at bases using "unmonitored
and potentially unsafe" water supplied by the military and a contractor
once owned by Vice President Dick Cheney's former company, the
Pentagon's internal watchdog says.
A report obtained by The Associated Press said soldiers experienced
skin abscesses, cellulitis, skin infections, diarrhea and other
illnesses after using discolored, smelly water for personal hygiene and
laundry at five U.S. military sites in Iraq.
The Defense Department's inspector general's report, which could be
released as early as Monday, found water quality problems between March
2004 and February 2006 at three sites run by contractor KBR Inc., and
between January 2004 and December 2006 at two military-operated
locations.
It was impossible to link the dirty water definitively to all the
illnesses, according to the report. But it said KBR's water quality
"was not maintained in accordance with field water sanitary standards"
and the military-run sites "were not performing all required quality
control tests."
The report said KBR took corrective steps and was providing adequate
water quality by November 2006. But military units at the two sites
they controlled were still failing to perform required quality control
tests and maintain appropriate records by that time.
"Therefore, water suppliers exposed U.S. forces to unmonitored and
potentially unsafe water," at the military sites by late 2006, the
report said.
The problems did not extend to troops' drinking water, but rather to
water used for washing, bathing, shaving and cleaning. Water used for
hygiene and laundry must meet minimum safety standards under military
regulations because of the potential for harmful exposure through the
eyes, nose, mouth, cuts and wounds.
AP probe finds drugs in drinking water
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Sunday, March 09 @ 20:39:26 UTC (204 reads)
A vast array of pharmaceuticals — including antibiotics,
anti-convulsants, mood stabilizers and sex hormones — have been found
in the drinking water supplies of at least 41 million Americans, an
Associated Press investigation shows.
To be sure, the concentrations of these pharmaceuticals are tiny,
measured in quantities of parts per billion or trillion, far below the
levels of a medical dose. Also, utilities insist their water is safe.
But the presence of so many prescription drugs — and
over-the-counter medicines like acetaminophen and ibuprofen — in so
much of our drinking water is heightening worries among scientists of
long-term consequences to human health.
In the course of a five-month inquiry, the AP discovered that drugs
have been detected in the drinking water supplies of 24 major
metropolitan areas — from Southern California to Northern New Jersey,
from Detroit to Louisville, Ky.
Water providers rarely disclose results of pharmaceutical
screenings, unless pressed, the AP found. For example, the head of a
group representing major California suppliers said the public "doesn't
know how to interpret the information" and might be unduly alarmed.
Police blame ghosts for damage
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Sunday, March 02 @ 22:20:35 UTC (126 reads)
Romanian cops have closed a vandalism investigation that left local houses in ruins by concluding ghosts were to blame.
Families living in Lilieci reported windows broken, bicycles flying
through the air, objects moving on tables and candles blown out when
there is no wind.
When they complained they were being hounded by evil spirits to police they were laughed at.
But after officers saw the evidence with their own eyes they filed a report saying that ghosts were to blame.
