Health / Making Babies Without Eggs May Be Possible - Scientists Says by OnosWorld(m): 7:19pm On Sep 14, 2016
Scientists say early experiments suggest it may one day be possible to make babies without using eggs.

They have succeeded in creating healthy baby mice by tricking sperm into believing they were fertilising normal eggs.

The findings in Nature Communications, could, in the distant future, mean women can be removed from the baby-making process, say the researchers.

For now, the work helps to explain some of the details of fertilisation.
End of mum and dad?

The University of Bath scientists started with an unfertilised egg in their experiments.

They used chemicals to trick it into becoming a pseudo-embryo.
These "fake" embryos share much in common with ordinary cells, such as skin cells, in the way they divide and control their DNA.

The researchers reasoned that if injecting sperm into mouse pseudo-embryos could produce healthy babies, then it might one day be possible to achieve a similar result in humans using cells that are not from eggs.

In the mouse experiments, the odds of achieving a successful pregnancy was one in four.

South Africa Bars American Pastor Steven Anderson Over Anti-Gay Views

South Africa has barred U.S Pastor Steven Anderson from visiting the country over his critical remarks about homosexuality.
The country's home affairs minister on Tuesday said he was refused a visa as the constitution prohibits hate speech.
Mr Steven Anderson who currently runs the Faithful Word Baptist Church in Arizona, says that homosexuality is an abomination punishable by the death penalty. He also said that religious freedom no longer existed in South Africa.
South Africa gay and lesbian groups collected more than 60,000 signatures opposing his visits this weekend, when he was expected to preach and seek converts to his church.

Education / Must Read "10 Principles Of Purpose" by OnosWorld(m): 3:23pm On Aug 04, 2016
What is Purpose?
The reason for which something exists or its done, used, made can be referred to as purpose. Purpose also is an intended or desired result; an aim, goal, determination, resoluteness.

There are two groups of people who are overburdened in this world; those who are carrying nothing and those who are carrying what they are not suppose to carry. Life becomes a burden if lived outside purpose. Doing the wrong thing for the right reason and doing the right thing for the wrong reason all ends in futility. Life becomes productive when you are doing the right thing the right way, in the right time, in the right place, for the right reason (the what..., the how..., the where..., and the why principle of life), and doing enough of this all your life.
