Injecting minute amounts of two immune-stimulating agents directly into solid tumors in mice can eliminate all traces of cancer in the animals, including distant, untreated metastases, according to a study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine.

 The approach works for many different types of cancers, including those that arise spontaneously, the study found.

The researchers believe the local application of very small amounts of the agents could serve as a rapid and relatively inexpensive  therapy that is unlikely to cause the adverse side effects often seen with bodywide immune stimulation.

Amateur Astronomer Receives Signals from ‘lost’ NASA satellite

Written by Richard Chirgwin

An amateur astronomer hunting the Zuma satellite that SpaceX may or may not have lost has instead turned up signals from a NASA bird thought dead since 2005.

Zuma went missing after separation from its SpaceX Falcon 9 launcher earlier this month. Like many other amateur sky-watchers, Scott Tilley has since tried to locate the super-secret satellite.

During that search he instead received signals from NASA’s IMAGE (Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration) satellite, which was pronounced dead in 2005. Tilley’s discovery has been confirmed by the Goddard Space Flight Center.

The Speed of Light: Constant and Non-Constant

Written by Raymond HV Gallucci, PhD, PE

This paper further explores the possibility of non-constant light speed, looking at two explanations offered by other dissident physicists.  First an example of tennis balls acquiring velocity of motion is extended to light.

Next is an examination of Curt Renshaw’s unique theory of light as traveling over an entire spectrum of speeds, like an expanding elastic psring,  with humans only able to observe that part of the spectrum (spring) traveling at exactly c.

Vaccine industry in PANIC as America’s vaccinated children keep dying

Written by Mike Adams

Children are dying from the flu all across America, according to media reports. What the media isn’t reporting, however, is how many of the children who died were also vaccine recipients.

Make no mistake: If only unvaccinated children were dying from the flu, that would be the headline everywhere: “Unvaccinated Children Dying Across America” or even “Flu Shot Saves Children from Deadly Influenza.”

But of course you’re not seeing those headlines for the simple reason that vaccinated children are among those who are being killed by this year’s flu.

Climate Consensus: Are They All Wrong Then?

Written by Carl Brehmer (with contributions from Bob Webster & edited by Hans Schreuder)

Five common tropes of global warming are examined along with a range of ‘position statements’ from influential institutions. This article identifies key flaws in them that undermines any so-called ‘climate consensus.’

Its always the same assumptions—the same assertions—that reappear in the mass media and most scientific journals:

During winter when the nights are long and days short, getting up for work in the dark and coming home in the dark can be grim. Some of us succumb to the January blues, leading to increased illness, reduced productivity and a general feeling of melancholy. But can clever lighting improve our sleep patterns and lift our moods?

The History of the Population Control Movement 1798 to 1998

Written by William Walter Kay

The population control movement (or better put: the contraception-abortion-sterilization medical-industrial complex), while little understood and seldom discussed, is one of the most culturally and politically influential movements of the modern world.

The population control movement and the environmental movement are so pervasively collaboratively and ideologically conjoined as to be conceptually inseverable. The following articles hopefully may serve as stepping stones across the 200-year wide river of darkness separating the general public from any practical awareness of this deliberate historic endeavour profoundly affecting each and every one of our lives.

The arctic air that has frozen the northeastern U.S. over the first weeks of 2018 has prompted New Englanders to crank up the heat and New England’s utility companies to scramble for fuel.

This season’s above-average heating and electricity demand has tested grid reliability at a time when the topic has had particular political salienceMost reporting on the matter has lauded the resilience the grid has shown, but a fuel-security analysis performed by the group that oversees New England’s power system delivers a pessimistic chill. ISO New England’s analysis reveals that in winters to come fuel insecurity will plague the region.

Climate Science Judged by Scientists with Naked Conflict-of-Interest

Written by Donna Laframboise

SPOTLIGHT: History’s most momentous climate decision was made by people with substantial conflicts-of-interest.

BIG PICTURE: In November 1995, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) declared for the first time that humans were changing the climate. Its verdict turned on a single piece of then-unpublished research. Four months after the fact, the research was submitted to a prominent journal. Three months later it was published.

3.5 Billion-Year-Old Fossils Challenge Ideas About Earth’s Start

Written by Rebecca Boyle

IN THE ARID, sun-soaked northwest corner of Australia, along the Tropic of Capricorn, the oldest face of Earth is exposed to the sky. Drive through the northern outback for a while, south of Port Hedlund on the coast, and you will come upon hills softened by time. They are part of a region called the Pilbara Craton, which formed about 3.5 billion years ago, when Earth was in its youth.

Polar Vortex To Bring ‘Several Rounds Of Arctic Cold’ To Eastern US

Written by Michael Bastasch

The eastern U.S. is forecast to see “several rounds of Arctic cold” through early February, according to meteorologists.

While the western U.S. is forecast to stay warm and dry, the National Weather Service (NWS) forecasts at least a 50 percent chance the Northeast and Great Plains will see frigid winter weather starting from Feb. 3 to 7.

Thorium Reactors May Dispose of Weapons-Grade Plutonium

Written by Kristina Nabokova

Scientists from the School of Nuclear Science & Engineering of Tomsk Polytechnic University are developing a technology enabling the creation of high-temperature gas-cool low-power reactors with thorium fuel. TPU scientists propose to burn weapons-grade plutonium in these units, converting it into power and thermal energy.

Thermal energy generated at thorium reactors may be used in hydrogen industrial production. The technology also makes it possible to desalinate water. The results of the study were published in Annals of Nuclear Energy.
