Can We Create A Synthetic Life Form?

The question is, “Can We Create A Synthetic Life Form?”

I read an article about scientists creating a new life form in a lab by altering the DNA.

DNA consist of four letters G = Guanine, T = Thymine, C = Cytosine and A = Adenine, together these create a code that underlies all living things.

However, this has now changed since scientists have expanded the genetic code by introducing synthetic ones.

Although at early stages this could create an entirely new life form.

So, with the creation of this new synthetic biology do you think it will help or hinder mankind?

I believe that for every good that comes out of new science, bad follows too.

For in the future, isn’t it possible that this new creation will make humans extinct.

With this in mind could this have happened before, as we too have an evolutionary missing link between apes and man?

But hey, I’m no Paleontologist, it’s just a theory.

So, what do you think?

The Very Itchy Bear

I read the children’s book called, ‘The Very Itchy Bear.’

This children’s book was written and beautifully illustrated by Nick Bland.

This delightful children’s book tells the tale of a bear and a flea.

When bear gets a flea in his fur it makes him itch everywhere.

Jumping into the sea, it makes him feel better and also gets rid of flea.

But alas bear feels lonely at sea, and when he finds the birds want to eat flea he goes on a mission to rescue it.

Now bear and flea are inseparable, but is that a good thing, for only time will tell if they will stay together forever.

A lovely book that encourages caring and friendship.

This children’s book has great illustrations, all children will like it.

So, why not read it or watch it together on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think and what you would do to get rid of an itch.

Where’s The Black Pyramid?

The question is, “Where’s The Black Pyramid?”

I read an article about a missing black pyramid.

In Gaza three pyramids stand but actually there should be four.

The fourth was described as being of black stone that was harder than granite.

Notes and drawings done in the 1700s by Frederic Norden showed a map of pharaonic monuments which was published in a tome entitled Voyage d1Egypte et de Nuble.

So, what happened to this black pyramid of Gaza?

It’s a mystery even today, for how could such a large structure be moved.

I have one theory.

Could it be that this black pyramid was an actual alien spacecraft, and the reason it’s no longer in Gaza if that it’s no longer on Earth?

But hey, I’m no archaeologist, it’s just a theory.

What do you think?

Have You Filled A Bucket Today?

I read the children’s book called, ‘Have You Filled A Bucket Today.’

This children’s book was written by Carol McCloud and beautifully illustrated by David Messing.

It’s about an invisible bucket that everyone carries around with them including you and me.

The bucket is filled each day with our feelings and good thoughts, it can also include caring, and smiles, but there’s a lot more too that can be added to the bucket.

It’s a beautiful story that shows a different way to act towards each other.

It’s a unique and special book for young children that encourages positive thought, love and kindness towards each other.

Why not read the book with your family and collect a little “Caring and love,” into your bucket now?

This is a delightful book that I’d recommend reading with all children.

So, read it now or watch it on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think?

Would You Like To Regenerate?

The question is, “Would you like to regenerate?”

If a lizard (a reptile) lost part of its tail or you cut a leg off of a Salamander (which is also amphibian) it will grow back.

However, although we can grow an embryo, with bone, muscle and intricate blood vessels we cannot like a Salamander regenerate a leg if it was removed.

After your born the only thing humans can regenerate well is our epidermis; the top layer of our skin.

Whist sharks can continuously replace lost teeth, and spiders can regrow legs, we cannot.

So, although our technology is advanced for humans on our world, it appears that amphibians and reptiles have the upper hand in regeneration.

Although that may be the case but they’re not immortal for they are also doomed to become food for a much larger predator.

But the question still remains, “Would you like to regenerate?”

Well you’ll have to wait for scientists to figure that one out, in the meantime look after your epidermis and your teeth.
