Group calls for investigation of waste company Stericycle's burning of babies killed by Gosnell
2013.05.17 - 2:45pm - Christian News
A national pro-life group is calling for an investigation into the connection between a convicted Philadelphia abortionist and the top medical waste disposal company in America regarding the unlawful disposal of newborn and third trimester babies. The Campaign to Stop Stericycle (CSS) issued a news release today, calling upon citizens across the country to contact both the Pennsylvania and North Carolina environmental protection agencies to request an official investigation into the incineration of babies killed by Kermit Gosnell via the Illinois-based company Stericycle. It is illegal for third trimester or newborn babies to be incinerated in the state. CSS noted that Stericycle treats their waste acceptance policy like a “don’t ask, don’t tell policy” in that the company never inquires what is in the boxes that they collect. read more...
KKK lynched 3,446 blacks in 86 years -- Abortion claims that many black babies in 'less than four days'
2013.05.17 - 2:30pm - CNS News
Over 86 years, the Ku Klux Klan lynched 3,446 blacks – a figure matched in less than four days if tallying the number of black babies who are aborted. Walter Hoye, founder and president of the Issues4Life Foundation, shared those statistics at a press conference on Tuesday where black clergy and other leaders gathered in response to the guilty verdict in the trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell, who was convicted of murdering three newborn babies. Hoye said that over 20 million of the more than 50 million abortions that have taken place since the Supreme Court Roe v. Wade ruling legalized the procedure are performed on black women. read more...
The 'therapeutic cloning' of human embryos
2013.05.17 - 2:15pm - National Review Online
Scientists at Oregon Health and Science University reported a successful incidence of cloning, one that relied on the same method that researchers used 17 years ago to clone Dolly the sheep. This week, the cloned embryos were not sheep; they were human beings. The work is heralded as the success of “therapeutic cloning.”  We will hear a lot about therapeutic cloning in the news this week. Researchers distinguish between “therapeutic cloning,” which creates embryos in order to harvest their stem cells, and “reproductive cloning,” which has the intention of a live birth. The Oregon researchers insist that theirs was not an act of “reproductive cloning.” But the distinction is spurious. Both types of cloning are reproductive. Both bring a new human being into existence. In fact, so-called therapeutic cloning is the more heinous because the process is intended to create life, exploit it, and then destroy it. Consider what the cloning breakthrough means. read more...
Teens teach porn class to adults at Oregon Adolescent Sexuality Conference
2013.05.16 - 11:00am - By Rita Diller
When I walked into this year’s Oregon Adolescent Sexuality Conference in Seaside, Oregon, one of the first things I encountered was a table manned by three young teen boys. On the table was a collage that included many depictions of totally bare female genitalia—obviously pornographic and, one would think, illegal. The boys smiled nervously as hordes of teens, who had arrived for what some described as a field trip, passed the display table. Planned Parenthood was on the steering committee of this conference. The booth belonged to Youth for Education and Prevention of Sexual Assault (YEPSA), a supposedly teen-led initiative from Eugene, Oregon. At a booth whose stated mission was the prevention of sexual assault, I could only wonder why the teen boys would be manning a table containing graphic pictures of female genitalia. read more...
Texas' Gosnell Doug Karpen under criminal investigation for murdering newborn babies
2013.05.16 - 10:45am - LifeSiteNews
Houston prosecutors announced [yesterday] they have launched a criminal investigation of Douglas Karpen, the late-term abortionist who twisted newborn babies' heads off with his bare hands according to his former employees. After an intense pro-life lobbying effort, the Harris County District Attorney's Office announced it had opened an early probe into allegations raised by three former employees that Karpen was guilty of infanticide in a manner reminiscent of Kermit Gosnell. Douglas Karpen is accused of killing newborns. Lt. Gov. David Dewhurt had demanded a full-scale investigation earlier [yesterday]. read more...
BRCA1 Gene: Is the morning after pill also a cancer shadow for women?
2013.05.16 - 10:30am - Washington Times
Angelina Jolie, in a New York Times op-ed, revealed that she has the mutated BRCA1 (pronounced brak-uh) gene, a condition that gave her an 87 percent chance of developing breast cancer. Jolie, whose mother died from the disease, decided to undergo a preventative double mastectomy in February: “I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer.” She closed her piece with this statement: “I choose not to keep my story private because there are many women who do not know that they might be living under the shadow of cancer.” Although Jolie was referring to the estimated five percent of women who also carry the defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene, 12 million women in America live under the shadow of cancer for a reason that neither media nor the medical community wants to talk about — the proven link between breast cancer and contraceptive pills. read more...
New research exploits women and commodifies human life
2013.05.16 - 10:15am - Center for Bioethics and Culture
In the June 6, 2013, issue of the scientific journal Cell, researchers announce that they have successfully derived human embryonic stem cells through somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) cloning. The authors of the article, “Human Embryonic Stem Cells Derived by Somatic Nuclear Transfer,” acknowledge their reliance on women to supply their eggs (donors) to make this research possible. The paper discloses that 10 women were paid to “donate” more than 120 eggs. The primary means by which these eggs are procured is ovarian hyperstimulation. The health risks associated with ovarian hyperstimulation and egg extraction are serious, in both the short and long term. They include ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), ruptured cysts, ovarian torsion, infection, bleeding, kidney failure, stroke, and even death. Longer term risks include loss of fertility and cancers from the fertility drugs women who supply their eggs must take. read more...
Premature babies, targets of unethical experimentation
2013.05.16 - 10:00am - Alliance for Human Research Protection
Beware of medical research institutions whose physicians violate medical ethics with impunity, exposing vulnerable patients to serious risks of harm without disclosing the nature of the experiment or the risks. Newly obtained documents from the oxygen experiment (SUPPORT) reveal far more extensive medical ethics violations than those specified in the March 7, 2013 letter by the Office of Human Research Protection to the University of Alabama. On May 8, 2013, Public Citizen submitted a follow-up letter to Secretary of Health and Human Services a detailed analysis (31 pages) of the SUPPORT research protocol and consent forms approved by each of the 23 IRBs at the participating medical centers at which the experiment—Surfactant, Positive Pressure, and Oxygenation Randomized Trial (SUPPORT) had been conducted on more than 1,300 extremely premature babies. The review of 22 consent forms for the SUPPORT trial reveals that NONE complied with mandatory Federal disclosure requirements. read more...
