Manufacturing Little Commie Eminems

In the United States, rap and hip-hop grew from the streets. But in China, a campaign to create home-grown hip-hop performers is, like so much else, the product of scientific planning, government intervention, expert input and, of course, tests.

Scientist Ignore Every Sci Fi Movie

By tinkering with genes, scientists have made tomatoes that stay fresher longer, crops that are immune to weedkillers and fish that grow faster. Now, a genetically engineered insect is emerging from the lab.
The first field trial of a biotech insect — a pink bollworm moth that contains a jellyfish gene — is planned for this summer. The gene gives the moth larvae a fluorescence that allows scientists to more easily track them and monitor their behavior.
If the experiment involving a major pest to cotton growers goes as planned, scientists are ready with their next step: testing a biotech version, called the “Terminator” by farmers, that is sterile, but sexually active; it is designed to mate with wild relatives and eliminate their offspring.

The occasion was a meeting in the Washington newsroom prior to a party for departing broadcaster Bernard Shaw, which took place on Ash Wednesday.
Turner, who is co-founder of the news network, took notice of a few foreheads smudged with ash, according to the report.
