Funny you should mention nasdaq, could this be a Madoff replacement in the making?

can i as an aFRICAN AMERICAN NOT IDENTIFY MYSELF AS SUCH???? why can't jews identify themselves as anyone they please. it is a free country. there is african american, jewish american and also christian american. jews living in the usa are jewish americans. just like blacks in the usa are african americans.
33. #23 - I recently heard the term "puerto rican-American"
William ,   Israel   (07.18.09)
during the Sotomayor confirmation hearings in the US. This political correctness exercise is out of control....probably finishing when we all are segmented down to the street level (e.g. Philadelphian-Main Streeter-American) based on Democrats policies.
34. All those killed mammals.
Antti R ,   Espoo, Finland   (07.18.09)
If the price for this "scientific breakthrough" is yet another killed hundreds of other mammals than Human I don't want it. Find some other way to do your experiments and tinkering.

Antti said: "If the price for this "scientific breakthrough" is yet another killed hundreds of other mammals than Human I don't want it. Find some other way to do your experiments and tinkering." Well, in that case, I guess you don't want: Heart/kidney/liver/brain surgery, any artifical joints, any modern drugs, sulfa compounds, bone marrow transplants, anti-cancer drugs of any kind, hormone replacement therapy. X-ray, MRI, or sonagram based diagnostics, crash protection in your car, bullet proof vests for your police, etc, etc, etc.
36. re: All those killed animals
Rob ,   Shinagawa, Japan   (07.18.09)
I have to agree. I understand that there may be times when there is only one way, but killing hundreds of animals as high up the food chain as monkeys? They have to find a better way. Humans have make a choice, monkeys don't.
37. #25&27.Either way, Avraham was a man with whom Hashem cut a
everlasting covenant ,   w/4 ALL generations.   (07.18.09)
38. Promising but of limited use at right now
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, USA   (07.19.09)
This has to be taken before exposure to radiation and only lasts a short time. It could prevent cancer cells as well as normal cells from suciding. This is a great start could lead to a great break though but alittle early to tell yet.
39. Compound protecting against gamma-irradiation
Dr. Leopold E. Puzis ,   Israel/USA   (07.19.09)
At 1992 working at Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel I found compound (chemical, stable, no complications cause ctr) that perfectly protected hamster's cells against alpha and gamma irradiation. The data was not published because of objective problems but I would be glad to collaborate with any scientist to continuer the study and to demonstrate the effect of the compound.
40. Chernobyl
KZnextzone ,   Fullerton USA   (07.20.09)
Take two and drive there for a week. I'll be impressed...
41. Bless us and we shall bless you
GB ,   Orwell   (07.20.09)
I am so proud of the Jewish people today. This may save millions of lives.

If only this'd been discovered sooner.
43. Boycott Israel
Anti-Aging Health ,   Guangzhou, China   (03.16.11)
I can't wait to see you boycott Israel's breakthrough drug. And die from radiation exposure. Bigots like you deserve to be exterminated.
44. israble test protocol; scince carried out by accountents
Eric ,   TelAviv   (03.23.11)
Seems we are dealing with a group of accountants rather then scintist; why the hell hould you spend a whole group of healtyanimals to your stupid control group test-it was avidant they will die exposed to that level of radiation so how is their deathin vain contributes to that idiotic test? or was that just for spite?
