Fresh Evidence Could
Date Truin Shroud to Christ. A Swiss scientist claims Turin
shroud might be genuine.
03/21/00
Her
claim prompted demands for the Vatican to order new tests
based on her findings linking the shroud to fragments of
another cloth produced in the Milddle East about 2000
years ago.
The way it was stitched on both the hems and on a lengthy
seam down one side was similar to the cloth found in the
ruins of Masada. A mountain stronghold overlooking the
Dead Sea.
Her conclusion that the shroud is not a fake is based on
these simalarites thus proving that it could have existed
at the same time as Jesus Christ.
It is now up to the Vatican to decide whether to go ahead
with new tests.
The Shroud will be on public display this year from
August to October as part of the church's clelebration of
the 2,000th birthday of Christ. 3 million people are
expected to attend.
Planet Strange: The Zone of
Silence
03/21/00
On this planet there are many mysterious places. Places
where the strangest things occur , for what science has
no answer or explanation.
One of these sites is in Mexico and is known as the Zone of Silence.
It all began in the 1930's when a man named Francisco
Sarabia, became the first person to experience this Zone
of Silence phenomena.
He reported that his radio had mysteriously ceased to
function.
It wasn't till about the 70's when the public became a
litte more aware of the Zone of Silence. This is when the
U.S. military lost two rockets over this area, and began
to investigate.
It was discovered that in the Zone many electrical
devices seem not to work. In Ceballos, Durango, some 25
miles away, is a settlement, where tv and radios are
useless. If you want to explore the Zone of Silence,
Ceballos is a good place to start.
Other reports of seeing strange lights in the sky and
meeting strange beings have been reported numerous times.
The zone lies just north of the Tropic of Cancer and
south of the 30th parallel, which places it in the
company of a number of other planetary anomalies, such as
the Bermuda Triangle.
The Mexican government has set up a research center in
the heart of the Zone to study strange biological
creatures found there.
Human Flesh Laboratory
Knoxvill,
Tenn.
- A man by the name
of William Bass, a professor, who dedicates his life to
the study of human remains has a three acre plot of
nondescript forested land in Knoxville, covered and
littered with dead bodies.
Professor Bass works for the University of Tennessee's
Anthropology Research Facility-an outdoor laboratory
known to many as the Body Farm.
Various bodies in various stages of decompostion are
scattered around the farm, some in the open, some in
shallow graves, some in stuffed suitcases and some
wrapped in cloth and submerged in water.
This farm is not for the timid or weak. It is disturbing
to walk through the land littered with exposed cadavers
and body bags with an occasional decaying rotted limb
peeking out.
You may be asking yourself as to why this lab exists and
the answer is very simple. How else are law enforcement
and forensic medicine students going to study the effects
of different environments on the decay of bodies.

This
knowledge has been very useful especially to solving
murders and investigating war crimes in the former
Yugoslavia.
The University collects bodies from three main sources:
the unclaimed dead, donations and those who have
specifically stated they want to go there when they die.
This lab has provided local, state and federal law
enforcement with a means of understanding death and
murder.
Everything about the dead body is taken into account, how
it was buried, how deep, if the soil is dry or wet, was
the body submerged in water, were there insects near the
body. The fatty acids from a body in the ground provides
critical clues even if the body is no longer there.

New Super
Antibiotic Drug
BBC television
producer in Australia has accidently found a substance
the can kill bacteria immune to standard antibiotics.
Greg Dyke, the BBC's director-general, says the discovery
was made during the filming of a saltwater crocodiles in
northern Australia by his producer.
The producer, Jill Fullerton-Smith, commented on the
strange fact that with all the fighting that goes on and
the nightmarish injuries they inflict on each other, the
wounds on these crocs rarely get infected.
She commented this to a young crocodile expert who became
interested also and together set out to find out why.
After taking blood samples and having a leading research
institute isolate the anti-microbial peptied. A peptide
is a natural chemical made of amino acids strung together
that can destroy bacteria by penetrating their membranes
without damaging normal cells.
In tests, this substance killed strains of virulent
bacteria that are resistant to all standard antibiotics.
This new antibiotic was named crocodillin, and it may one
day be used in drugs to treat human infections.
The Tree of GOD
03/21/00
Lockhart, Tx- Many people are making a
pilgrimage to a tree located in the city of Lockhart,
Texas because the image of Christ has been seen on the
trunk and limbs.
Many people claim to have seen it. The image is said to
appear and disappear.
People from all walks of life have gone there in the hope
of catching a glimpse of Christ for themselves.
Lots of them have sworn to seeing Christ's image. Many
have fainted when touching the image.
So far the Church has not commented on this phenomena and
refuses to acknowledge that any of the stories about the
image of Christ appearing on this tree are even true.
