New Rochelle, NY, November 29, 2012Osteoporosis, or reduced bone mineral density that can increase the risk of fractures, may affect as many as 30% of women and 12% of men worldwide. One risk factor for osteoporosis is vitamin D deficiency. A modified form of the vitamin D receptor present in some individuals may lower their risk for developing osteoporosis, according to an article in Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available on the Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers website.

To act on cells in the body, vitamin D binds to a specific receptor on the surface of cells. A variation in the gene for the vitamin D receptor (called the Bsm I polymorphism) may change this interaction. In the article, "Vitamin D Receptor BSM I Polymorphism and Osteoporosis Risk: A Meta-Analysis from 26 Studies," authors Fu Jia and colleagues, Kunming Medical University and Yunnan University of Chinese Traditional Medicine, Yunnan, People's Republic of China, report that people with this genetic variation appear to have a significantly decreased risk of developing osteoporosis.

"This meta-analysis provides a pathway to help determine the likelihood that a person may develop osteoporosis and is a good example for the potential application of genetics to clinical medicine," says Kenneth I. Berns, MD, PhD, Editor-in-Chief of Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers, and Director of the University of Florida's Genetics Institute, College of Medicine, Gainesville, FL.

Main Show Only - Underground and Sea Bases
Date: 08-25-03 Host: George Noory Guests: Richard Sauder, Dr. Sky, Larry Park Researcher Richard Sauder shared his findings about underground and underwater bases that are located around the world. Explaining his intense interest in the topic, Sauder said that after penning a short article for UFO Magazine in 1992, he woke up one night to hear a disembodied voice inside his head that began by saying "underground bases are real." He suspects this communication was sent to him by a "pulsed microwave transmitter" that is capable of beaming messages directly into the auditory cortex, according to the patent of this device. In the US, underground facilities are run not only the military but also by such organizations as FEMA and may extend as far as one mile down, and perhaps even further, Sauder said. One source told him, that an underground facility at China Lake stored arms that were "more powerful than nuclear weapons." Sauder believes that clandestine genetic engineering may also be taking place at some of these facilities, in order to avoid moral and political concerns. According to documentation he uncovered, the US Navy has had the technology to build underwater installations since 1966. Sauder indicated that such black project constructions might be funded by the staggering 2.3 trillion dollars that has not been accounted for by the Pentagon. As to the purpose of these secretive bases, Sauder speculated that there could potentially be a "separate society," or even a ...From:Geoff ThomasViews:27 0ratingsTime:01:17:48More inEducation

Ancient ET Intervention - Marshall Klarfeld - Coast to Coast AM Classic
http://www.jetnews.us Date: 11-07-10 Host: George Noory Guests: Marshall Klarfeld Mechanical engineer Marshall Klarfeld discussed his relationship with the late Zecharia Sitchin and his theories of how humans were created by genetic engineering of the Annunaki. Sitchin arrived at his conclusions after translating the ancient cuneiform tablets of the Sumerians, telling Klarfeld, "It #39;s not a secret, I #39;m just a reporter." While some have not concurred with Sitchin #39;s interpretations, Klarfeld said five major scholars agreed with his translations. Klarfeld recounted the 6000 year-old Epic of Gilgamesh which tells in cuneiform the history of Earth #39;s first contact with extraterrestrial beings-- the Annunaki, who mixed their DNA with Homo erectus to create the human race. The story involved Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, who was part Annunaki, a cloned counterpart, Enkidu, and Ishtar, an Annunaki princess who traveled in a shuttlecraft to the space platform (the huge stone ruins in Baalbek, Lebanon). She was said to control a weapon "the Bull of Heaven," which Klarfeld likened to a laser beam. The Epic also tells the story of the Great Flood (associated with the arrival of the planet Nibiru in between Mars and Jupiter), and how the Annunaki wanted to use it to wipe out humans, said Klarfeld. Yet, some opted to save humankind, and Noah #39;s Ark was developed as a submersible, and rather than containing actual animals, it held the DNA of all living creatures, which was later reconstituted ...From:C2CPlanetViews:18 1ratingsTime:01:52:47More inEducation

Ancient Giants Cosmic War - Joseph P. Farrell - Coast to Coast AM Classic
http://www.jetnews.us Date: 04-20-11 Host: George Noory Guests: Joseph P. Farrell, Richard C. Hoagland Renowned researcher with a PhD from Oxford University, Joseph P. Farrell presented evidence for a hidden history of mankind that involved tyrannical giants and an elite race bent on genetic mutation. The Greeks, Hopi, Mayans, Iroquois, Aztecs, and the Bible all recorded an ancient war against giants in the dim past. "I was astounded at the parallels between all these very, very divergent cultures,"-- there seems to be some kind of worldwide or civil war against the giants, for different reasons including their sexual practices and/or cannibalism. This "cosmic war" may have involved something far more destructive than nuclear bombs-- torsion or scalar-based weapons that effectively annihilated both sides, he said. Farrell cited ancient cuneiform tablets that suggest some type of genetic manipulation took place in which prototypical Earth females and Annunaki-type males were mixed to form modern humans, to serve as a slave race. This is particularly problematic, as our "cousins" may return one day to claim us as their property, he warned. Such ancient genetic engineering also produced chimerical beings composed of various human and animal components, he continued. We #39;re looking at the activity of one elite group, if not more, "that has been in continual existence more or less since ancient times," and their behavior is to try and preserve knowledge just for themselves, he said ...From:C2CPlanetViews:41 0ratingsTime:02:34:57More inEducation
