Kidneys 'grown in lab'

by yasar malik Scientists claim to have grown kidneys in a laboratory by manipulating stem cells, a major breakthrough which could help tackle the shortage of organs for transplant. A team at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland has actually used stem cells, which are the building blocks of the body, to form the structure of a kidneys. The newly created organs measure half a centimetre in length -- the same size as a kidney in a foetus; and, the team hopes the tiny kidneys will be able to grow to maturity after being transplanted into human bodies, 'The Scotsman' reported. In fact, the kidneys were grown in the lab using a combination of cells from amniotic fluid -- the fluid which surrounds all babies in the womb -- and animal foetal cells.

By: Dr. Shakeel Ahmed Raina, 7 is a natural number. It is a prime number which is also sum of two prime numbers 5 and 2.It has been seen that this number has great significance in Islam and it had been frequently used in The Holy Quran and sayings of Prophet Mohammad (S.A.). Aeman(Faith) is the first fundamental of Islam. The detailed definition of Aeman is to bring faith blindly on 7 things: first faith on God, second faith on His angels, third faith on His books, fourth faith on His Prophets, fifth faith on the Day of Judgement (Kiyamat), sixth faith on fate (Takdeer) and seventh faith on re-life after death. Muslims are directed to start every work with the word Bismillah. Bismillah means I start with name of God. The Abjid Haroof of the Arabic word Bismillah is 786.

When the holy Quran was placed before Mohammed Maqbool Butt on the morning of February 11, 1984, he knew that death awaited him in the phansi kothi a few yards away. A high voltage bulb burning outside the grated doors of his solitary cell in the death row was indicative of the outside darkness. If he had had any hopes of living awhile yet, they were dashed by the presence of the” prison doctors. Jail superintendent, A.B. Shukla/had paid Butt a visit in the middle of the previous night. Shukla chatted with him for a long time but cautiously avoided any talk about the execution. “I will see you on Monday”, Butt’s counsel on record, the sallow-complexioned R.C.

It's not state, but Govt is shining

By Manpreet Kour GNS Report: If recent advertisement of the state government in all the local dailies of the state is to be believed, the state is marching ahead considerably towards progress. But things are not as bright as shown in the advertisement. As per the advertisement, the state of Jammu and Kashmir is first in providing Primary Health facilities, 1st in implementation of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Scheme (MGNREGA), 3rd in as far as Macro Economy is concerned, 4th in providing Primary Education, and 4th in providing better Investment Environment. It is nothing but just an image building of the beleaguered Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and wastage of taxpayer’s money.

In state’s one of the biggest children hospital that is SMGS HospitalShalamar Jammu, two or...
