Rome -Doctors and medical groups around the world last weekend reacted with strong opposition to the news that an Italian specialist is on the brink of cloning the first human baby.
Dr. Severino Antinori, who is the head of a hospital in Rome, has been referred to in an Arab newspaper as claiming that one of his patients is eight weeks pregnant with a cloned baby.
Antinori refused to comment on the reports, but in March 2001 he said he hoped to produce a cloned embryo for implantation within two years. So far seven different kinds of mammals have already successfully cloned, including sheep, cats and most recently rabbits.
Doctors showed their doubt and were strongly opposed although they admit that human cloning would finally come true unless there was a world wide ban on the practice.
Professor Rudolf Jaenisch of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: “I find it astonishing that people do this where the result can be foretold that it will not be a normal baby. It is using humans as guinea pigs. It makes people feel sick. ”But Ronald Green, director of the Ethics institute at Darmouth College in the US, said it is unlikely that an eight - week - old pregnancy would lead to a birth.
So far all cloned animals have suffered from some different serious disorders, many of them dying soon after their births .
Doctors are opposed to human cloning because they are worried about the welfare of the cloned child if there is one.
“There are no benefits of cloned human beings, just harm, ”said Dr. Michael Wilks of the UK.

the laugh lab
Dr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.
The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.
This is a subject that has long interested psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.
By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted. This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance.
“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour, ” said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play. ”
Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. the British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for 500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?”
The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe.
Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.

telecommunicatio
Environmental monitoring system of telecommunication base stations and wireless sensor terminals show a wide range of application in recent years. Based on the needs of industry application, an practical product model of wireless sensor is nike shoes contructed, so as to d use it widely in environmental detection. In environmental monitoring applications, the common semaphore are temperature and humidity, current, voltage, passive infrared, smoke, flooding and so on. Traditionally, sensor nodes used are generally wired. Wireless terminal is no line, no damage to buildings, so distributed quickly and easily, added flexiblely and conveniently. To satisfy the Lacoste Polo Shirts application requirements, researching and developing wireless sensor nodes with innovative features is a new attempt in the area of environmental monitoring about the base station.Based on the cheap nike shoes research of the related technologies, a wireless sensor network design model is proposed. Accroding to the requests of wireless sensor networking, the functional requirments and technical specifications of women's nike shoes wireless gateway are given. Through analysing the practical needs of base station enviroment monitoring, the functional requirments and technical specifications of wireless sensor nodes are also presented. Then, the hardware and the monitoring software of a wireless sensor node are designed and implemented. The hardware includes core controller interface, wireless communications transceiver lace wedding dresses circuit, sensor expansion interface aand so on. The software is consisted of temperture collection, communication model with gatway. Using object-oriented DelPhi programming language, the test platform is developed, which together with wireless gateway and smart sensor node, a practical minimum system is composed. Testing results show that the sensor node design and implementation have achieved the expected goals.
