Chinese Scientists create GM milk for babies
The GM milk reasearh has the backing od a major bioetechnology company ( I wish they would say which one it was) Scientists in China have created gentically modified (GM) cattle pruduce the equivalent of human milk, it has been revealed. The scientists successfully introduced human gene 300 dairy cows pruduce milk the same properties as human breast milk Alternative Scientists at the State Key laboratories for Agrobiotechnology in China, said they believe milk from herds of GM cows could provide an alternative to human breast milk and formula milk for babies and aim to commercialise research in this area with in three years. However, it will be at least 10 years before the products can be sold to consumers, Prof Ning Li the science who led the research is quoted as saying. He said GM milk would be safe to drink as milk from ordinary dairy cows. The researcher used cloning technology to introduce human genes into the DNA of Holstein dairy cows before the GM embryos were implanted into surrogate cows. They said this enabled them to create cows that produced milk containing a human protein called lysozyme,which helps to protect infants from bacterial infections during their early days of life. GM critics and animal welfare groups criticised the research, questioning the safety of the milk and the effect of the technique on the cattle health ans welfare.
DNA Testing introduced after evidence of TB fraud
How long has this been going on the link was noted in the 1950 in Switzerland. To cut a very long story short farmer have been able to change the ear tags around and cow that do not have such a high yield of mike and be sent to sluttier and the TB cow stays in the food supply chain.
When the cow are first test the should be sprayed it take 6 weeks / 8 weeks simple , for the dye to come off they can a photo of the cows front sides and back and top and underside image kept my the government and a copy sent to the Slater houses and tick of when processed and conformed with the government. DNA taken at the time of testing and DNA at the the sluttier house. The police on this has been very lacks.
When a dog has to put down that it of very high rick two vet's are needed to make shaw the dog is but sleep this is what they should do with these cows. must less chance of fraud.
The link I have suppyied is a very long and in depth.

AIR
AIR watched with dismay as Arts Council England unveiled the new landscape for visual arts funding on 30 March 2011.
The new National Portfolio Organisations settlement has hit visual artists hard. 24.8% of the current RFOs cut were visual arts organisations, compared to only 8.3% in dance and 18.4% in theatre.
A "balanced portfolio" has largely been interpreted as "supporting lottery-funded galleries and institutions" at the expense of support for grassroots artist-led initiatives.
AIR calls for funded galleries to budget for fees at professional rates for artists to undertake commissions, exhibitions and other arts employment. AIR also urges arts institutions to play a greater role in supporting the critical mass of artists by actively offering professional development opportunities and critique to more artists in their regions.
This kind of collaboration is imperative in a time of austerity. Such support of the critical mass of artists will guarantee that quality visual arts will emerge in the future, for the benefit of all. For without artists, there would be no contemporary art.
