Bio-Weapon Escapes Tulane Lab
As the public began to wake up to the absurdity and brutality of the militarized police state, isn’t it serendipitous that we have a militarized terror strike in a major Western city?
FOX commentator Eric Bolling wastes no time in calling for a hyper-militarized police response, in his words, “over-militarized.”
As laughable as his statements are, they’re not satire and they’re not funny.

Scientists take first microscopy images of ultra-small bacteria
This cryo-electron tomography image reveals the internal structure of an ultra-small bacteria cell like never before.
Scientists have taken the first ever extensive microscopy images of ultra-small bacteria, which are so far thought to be the smallest life forms in existence.
The bacteria have an average volume of 0.009 cubic microns (a micron is one millionth of a meter), 150,000 of which could be...
UK Supermarkets Chickens Contaminated with Deadly Bacteria
New report says most supermarket chickens contaminated with lethal poisoning bug.
Public concerns are rising in UK as the latest results of food safety tests by the Food Standards Agency show that three-quarters of fresh chickens on sales in supermarkets and butchers are contaminated with potentially lethal food poisoning, campylobacter.
According to the agency, the worst contamination rates were found...
Scientists discover Hydrogen producing bacteria
Dr. Melanie Mormile, the head researcher of a team of scientists from the Missouri University of Science and Technology who found a new species of bacterium which cleans up the environment and produces hydrogen.
Scientists have found a new species of bacterium which cleans up the environment and produces hydrogen, an element which may in the future reduce the world’s dependency on oil.
The bacterium...
Washing raw chicken increases food poisoning risk
New research has warned that washing raw chicken, through spreading infection, could increase the risk of food poisoning.
Washing meat before cooking was found to spread deadly bacteria called campylobacter, experts claimed.
The bacteria infect the things around such as work surfaces, clothing and cooking equipment, through the splashing of water droplets.
Campylobacter bacteria, as the most common...
10 herbs and foods that kill superbugs
Longtime readers of Natural News know that, because of massive over-prescribing by the modern healthcare industry, today’s crop of antibiotics are becoming less and less effective. Another culprit: The increased use of antibiotics in factory-farm animals.
“It is not difficult to make microbes resistant to penicillin in the laboratory by exposing them to concentrations not sufficient to kill them,”...
Children playing with dirt may reduce allergy and asthma risk
Babies exposed to dirt and a wide variety of household bacteria in the first year of life are less likely threatened by allergies and asthma, a new research unraveled.
Contact with bacteria and even roach allergens in the first year of life may help protect infants against future allergies and wheezing.
The study researchers followed 467 newborns for three years, monitoring them for allergies annually...
NASA Curiosity contaminates Mars with hundreds of Earth bacteria
NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity
The NASA Curiosity rover that was thought to bring only cameras, sensors, and scientific equipment when it traveled to Mars in August 2012 may have brought along dozens of species of bacteria that originated on Earth, according to a new study.
A study conducted by the American Society for Microbiology and published in the Nature science journal revealed that 377 strains...
Shocking Russian Report Labels GMO Foods “Bio-Warfare Weapon”
A shocking report prepared by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev privately explaining his decision today to postpone the introduction of certifying genetically-modified seeds (GMO) for another three years in the Russian Federation warns that these “artificial” organisms are now showing “compelling evidence” of their being related to “bio-warfare agents” due to their “catastrophic effect”...
Deadly Whooping Cough Bacteria hits Australia again, vaccines useless
The bacterium that causes whooping cough has mutated in Australia, most likely in response to the vaccine used to prevent the disease, with a possible reduced effectiveness of the vaccine as a result, a new study shows.
A team of researchers analyzed strains of the virus from across Australia and found that many strains no longer produce a key surface protein called pertactin.
About 80 per cent of...
Scientists warn of new bubonic plague
The cemetery in Bavaria, Germany (A). The skeleton of a victim of the Plague of Justinian (C). Objects (E) from the grave (B) that helped scientists to estimate the plague victim’s death as occurring between 525 AD and 550 AD. A tooth from which the genome of the plague was extracted (D).
Scientists have reconstructed the genome of the first recorded bubonic plague and compared it to two later pandemics....
Five metals of five planets can cure variety of diseases
Gold and silver jewelry, steel items, brass coins and many other metal things have been known as healers since ancient times. However, most people do not treat metal as a method of treatment and consider it to be remnants of the past. Yet, metal therapy continues to help people. The most important aspect in this method is its simplicity, accessibility and the absence of side effects.
Metals of planets

Electricity from the Marshes
An unexpected source of new, clean energy has been found: the Plant-Microbial Fuel Cell that can generate electricity from the natural interaction between living plant roots and soil bacteria. The technique already works on a small scale and will soon be applied in larger marshland areas throughout the world.
On 23 November, researcher Marjolein Helder will defend her PhD research on generating electricity...
US Alchemy Researchers Create 24-Carat Gold in Lab
Iranian researcher Kazem Kashefi along with his American colleague Adam Brown has created gold in Michigan State University using bacteria in a way called ‘microbial alchemy’.
Kashefi and Adam Brown used a special type of bacterium to turn liquid gold into more valuable 24-karat gold.
They reported that the bacteria Cupriavidus metallidurans is capable of resisting the toxic effects of...
Warming caused the appearance of oceanic bacteria in Europe
Study shows that the increasing temperature of the Baltic Sea coincided with the onset of gastrointestinal infections caused by the bacterium Vibrio, reported the German news service Deutsche Welle.
Climate change caused by man is behind the unexpected appearance of a group of bacteria in northern Europe that can cause gastroenteritis, a new study by a group of experts shows.
The study, published...
