  1. scientists may be blurring the line between human and animal as they work toward creating embryos that are a combination of both, NPR reports.
    Their goal is to grow human organs in farm animals for transplant into terminally ill patients—but the work is “ethically charged,” the MIT Technology Review points out, and the National Institutes of Health has blocked funding while it considers the implications.

  4. EU vows to use new powers to block elected far right populists:
    The President of the unelected executive arm of the European Union (EU) has vowed to block all right wing populists from power across the continent, shortly after acquiring the power to exert “far-reaching sanctions” on elected governments.
    Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, promised to exclude Norbert Hofer, the leader of Austria’s Freedom Party (FPÖ), from all EU decision-making if elected ahead of yesterday’s presidential vote.
    “There will be no debate or dialogue with the far-right,” the liberal bureaucrat told AFP.
    The FPÖ has been Austria’s top-polling political force for some time. However, after leading the pack for most of the presidential race, the right-wing candidate lost out by 0.6 per cent to the Green party, after the inclusion of postal votes, and months of Europe’s mainstream media calling the centre-right populist “far right”.
    Right wing populists are periodically topping the polls across the continent – in France, Sweden, Holland, and now Austria – and anti-migrant populists are already in power in Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic.
    Mr. Junker’s definition of “far right” is somewhat broad, noted by him previously describing Hungary’s conservative president, Viktor Orbán, as a “fascist.”

  5. Never mind Hanoi and Obama.
    Last week the CBC ran a story where Donald Trump offered to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, who refused the offer, claiming that Trump was doing it as ”just a gesture for the presidential election”
    This is the story: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/north-korea-donald-trump-kim-jong-un-1.3596812?__vfz=profile_comment%3D8229900003349
    My comment was deleted when I wrote: ”I’l bet the little dictator won’t be talking so loud after Mr. Trump is elected.”
    No need to dig too deep to see who’s side the CBC is on!!
