Interested parties claim to have identified the writing on the mysterious placard that is visible on the slide of the alleged mummy of an alien from the Roswell crash that was displayed at a conference in Mexico on May 6. It was claimed that the slide depicted the mummified body of a creature that had died in the crash of a flying disk near Roswell, New Mexico in July of 1947. The first line of the placard reads "Mummified Body of a Two Year Old Boy." Subsequent lines are somewhat less clear, but the analysts can read most of the words: "At the time of burial the body was clothed in a xxx-xxx cotton shirt. Burial wrappings consisted of these small cotton blankets. Loaned by the Mr. Xxxxxx, San Francisco, California."

For the first time, astronomers have detected the presence of complex organic molecules, the building blocks of life, in a protoplanetary disk surrounding a young star, suggesting that the conditions that spawned our Earth and Sun are not unique in the universe. In fact, it probably means that the building blocks of life are very widely spread. This, combined with the recent discovery that planets are commonplace, raises the likelihood that life may be abundant. Just how abundant cannot be known, but it is now all but certain that there is life out there. But is it intelligent? If intelligent life was commonplace, then we would have seen more obvious signs, probably in the radio background noise. However, given the sheer size of the cosmos, it is all but inevitable that ET exists.read more

Whitley Strieber offers his first impression of the Roswell Slides and, as one might expect, it’s likely to remain one of the most fascinating things ever said about them, Roswell itself and the whole issue of alien contact. As Whitley has said, "I am certain that the Roswell Incident happened because one of my uncles was present at Wright Field and witnessed the arrival of the debris. He and his commanding officer, General Arthur Exon, gave me descriptions of what they knew about the debris, what had happened to cause the secrecy, and what was thought of what the materials represented. I used their statements as the basis for my novel Majestic." To read Whitley’s Journal: The Roswell Slides, click here.

 Changes in medicine are finally leading to changes in how medicine is taught at some university hospitals. Now, in addition to learning how the body works, aspiring doctors are having to learn how the medical system, itself, works.

At the University of Michigan Medical School, second year students spend class hours improving their communication and negotiation skills – something that will be important to them for working as part of a medical team, sharing options with their patients, determining with colleagues who gets top-billing as lead author on a research paper, and explaining how the whole thing works to the outside world.
