POPSOpenning the door for genetic markets 1) The new regulations do not cover cloned animals, most pets or research animals. The FDA has already determined that clones -- genetic replicas -- are safe. Pets and research animals are unlikely to enter the food chain 2) Only one genetically engineered animal is now being sold in the United States, the glow-in-the-dark zebra fish for aquariums. The FDA approved it because it is not eaten and its need for warm water effectively precludes its escape into the wild 3) Technically, it is not the modified animals but the added DNA segments that are considered drugs

POPSCloned Puppies: Sure, They're Cute, But at What Cost? Yet defenders of the industry say that it's wrong to apply analogies taken from other species' clones: Despite the difficulties, they insist, cloned dogs tend to be healthy, not least because scientists have spent the last decade figuring out how to do it. "Clone enough dogs, and occasionally you have offspring that aren't perfect," said Lou Hawthorne, CEO of both BioArts and the late Genetic Savings and Clone. "But it's comparable to what you have through conventional breeding."

POPSStem cells are needed The conflict centers on an effort to create stem cells from embryos that are exact clones of adults. The hope is to one day use the cells to generate transplant tissues or even whole body parts to treat incurable diseases. Last month, the California agency doled out $23 million in research grants but turned down all applications seeking funding for the technique, known as therapeutic cloning." I find it very disturbing; why does the US try to hold off the future that may take humanity one step forward.

POPSGemzies aims to ‘start’ where Wikipedia ‘ends’ The recently launched Dutch internet-startup Gemzies.com, covered on Coolbusinessideas.com, adds a new dimension to user-generated content. Gemzies differs from a vast series of Digg-clones: Gemzies pages are focused on a single topic. Users can dig anything BUT news on that topic (recommended sites, videos, photos, books) to help others getting started. Site: www.gemzies.com press release: http://www.gemzies.com/press/Gemzies-background_info-may.pdf

POPSChina Cada vez que escucho la palabra Made in China automáticamente mi subconsciente me avisa que lo que voy a ver es de mala calidad y barato. En el 99.9% de las veces se cumple la regla por lo tanto agradezco a mi gran subconsciente por ser tan fiel y no timarme como hacen los chinos con sus productos.
