Both Tony Blairs 1 & 2 showed support today for the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) decision to allow the cloning of human embryos.
The move follows South Koreas announcement in February allowing their scientists to embark on the same procedures, but flies in the faces* of President George Bush in the U.S. who banned Federal funding for stem cell and cloning research on Aug 9th 2001 (back before he had any proper work to do).
In this decisive, clear and unambiguous piece of policy, Bush said “Yes and No” to stem cell research. The President declared that in the U.S. only human embryos extracted previously could be used for medical research. New embryos, even if discovered in discarded feminine hygiene products, should not be used for science. He also closed the door to Federal funding for any research of this type.
Sen. John Kerry, Bush's Democratic rival in the November presidential election, has said that if elected he'd overturn those funding restrictions (along with all other policy instated over the last four years.)
Similar announcements are expected soon by Sweden and Japan. The Japanese hope that they can mass-produce an army of efficient workers capable of automating themselves out of the workforce. The Swedes remain tight lipped about their intentions, but the international scientific community has their fingers crossed for an increase in the number of tall blondes who enjoy public nudity.
Many scientists believe stem cells hold vast promise for treating a variety of illnesses and a breakthrough in this arena may offer wonderful late-in-life opportunities for retired, non-working, non-tax paying individuals to live beyond their useful life expectancy.
The recent death of former President Ronald Reagan has forced the issue to the spotlight in the US. Former first lady Nancy Reagan and 58 senators asked President Bush to relax his stance, but he refused claiming,
“I understand the issues completely. I’ve read so many reports about stem cell research that I’ve near worn the skin off my index finger. There’s no way I’m gonna let you bring that old guy back, No sirree!”

I'm a bit disappointed about men as such...I would say I'm just normal.
I've got a good job, I consider myself successful...just need someone to change my opinion about
men:-). I'm looking for intelligent men, ideally between 35 and 45, for some hot sex sessions.

Not terribly good at writing about myself but here goes!!. I am a 36
year old woman, I am independant but not overly so. Just circumstantial. I like to laugh and like
people who can make me laugh. I like good conversation, I like to socialise and to meet new people.
I am a very down to earth person with a strong character - sometimes a bit of a day dreamer! Some
say I am witty but that depends on the people I am with. In friends company it comes naturally.

Some would describe me as kind, caring and loving but that will depend
on who you are talking to. I am open and honest and like honesty in others. I prefer someone who
isn't afraid to show their feelings and talk about what matters to them. Other than that I haven't
got any specific preference. If any of this strikes a chord please feel free to contact me! Oh and
don't be put off by piccies!!. They were not meant to be glamour shots!!

My interests are salsa dancing, jazz, blues & salsa music, computer
graphic design, reading, plus the usual films/cooking or eating out. Physically I am very fit and
trim, and people assume I am in my 30's rather than 40's! I would like to meet someone who is
optimistic, humorous, motivated, and has intregrity. You could have your own business, be around
40-55, tall (5'10'+), like music and or dance/sport, share my sense of humour (irony and the
ability to see the ridiculous side of life). Plus I would probably have more in common with someone
who has had children. Not sure whether I believe in "love" but certainly companionship, respect and
a loving relationship.
the DAILY SPOT
“I am delighted that my challenge has been backed by over 1/3 of all labour MPs and that I that I secured the support of 14% more MPs than I needed to spark a leadership contest. Or to put it another way, that is a 70% increase on what was required, allowing for seasonal adjustments due to absenteeism which is measured by an index based upon a propensity for sickness and holiday averaged out over a 36 month period, divided by the average age of an MP squared. These figures could not send out a clearer message.”
The notoriously frosty relationship between the PM and his Chancellor had sunk to new lows in the weeks leading up to todays announcement. In an off the record interview with Heat Magazine, Brown is said to have criticised Blair for being a “spineless spin master whose supposed superiority has seen success only sporadically”. When the alleged leader of the opposition, Michael Howard, confronted Mr Blair in the Commons repeating Brown’s remarks, the PM could not hide his anger:
“My message is simply this – in my mind, if it is anything more than mere mischief making by the most malicious magazine on the market, then myself and my honourable friend must meet so he may make known his misgivings to me.” Blair did add that he was confident that the Chancellor had been misquoted. In private however, according to an unnamed cabinet source, Blair was said to be seething at the magazine article and at one stage threatened Brown saying “I should beat you to death with your own leg”.
