Clowns claim cloning completed

Jimmy Weasel - Saturday, 28 December 2002 - 20:26:28 - print it raw

2002; a foul year by any standard. A year that saw as much, if not more lies, deceit and corruption as the horrible days of the previous.

Out of this mire creeps a claim by a religious order that they are the first to have cloned a human baby. The race has been on for a while now; undeterred by international bans on human cloning, and now fruition after a deadlocked and UN fails to decide yea or nay on the matter.

The Raelian sect claims to be the brains behind this outfit, yet not yielding the young charge to scientific probing and genetic analysis that such a claim thoroughly deserves. This sect also claims that humans are themselves clones of aliens, and that cloning will lead to eternal life (a concept reflected (although probably not endorsed) by recent Fear Factory album: Digimortal)...

There is a school of thought that insists cloning is acceptable for infertility treatment, and another that suggests that cloning is indeed "the great satan" of our time. At any rate "Eve", was brought into these clouded times on December 26, 11:55am in the Bahamas by a company called "Clonaid". The Clonaid website is nothing more than an ad for a book authored by Rael, founder of the sect.

Obtaining your own clone will cost from $200,000 American dollars, and be undertaken with "utmost respect" to local laws.

This is an end to the year that no-one predicted; Nostradamus never saw this one coming. And neither did Sollog for that matter...

Red Riding Trilogy
This is an attempt to understand the newish British television series Red Riding. Due to the regional accents, the muttering, the byzantine plot, and that British inability to provide subtitles, I am writing a detailed synopsis to get my head around this excellent television show. In short, it is nothing but spoilers, spoilers, spoilers...
Kitchen Antics - Chicken in Faux Ragoƻt
Ladder of flavour? A few rungs above bland. This can be constructed & delivered in less than 30 minutes, depending on your aptitude with a knife.
Lassitude abandons the Throwing Knives
Down on the chamber pot, the percolating smells brew up quite the nasal fest. From the wafting fumes, the air solidifies partial sweaty rock and musty punk, a taste hinting at delicious pockets of after-aftertaste, and the not so floral punch of an undone music interview leaves the tongue wanting something else.

Every detail makes the story worth following somewhere. Cooking up microfiction and life lessons as we review film, music, books, theatre and other aspects of culture.
It's all intrigue and conspiracy.
