My grandma was born in 1914. She died at the age of 97. A very long,
painful death. I was sad, but I was also relieved. Finally it was over.

By: Samuel Ullman
Youth is not a time of life - it is a state of mind,
it is a temper of the will,
a quality of the imagination,
a vigor of the emotions,
a predominance of courage over timidity,
of the appetite for adventure over love of ease.
Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years.
People grow old only by deserting their ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin,

绿色和平强烈谴责美国呼吁中国政府审核其合法性
法制网北京8月30日讯 记者 郄建荣 国际环保组织绿色和平8月30日向媒体表示,
近日,美国一科研机构发布了其对24名中国湖南省儿童进行转基因大米人体试验的结果
。对此,绿色和平表示强烈谴责。
据绿色和平介绍,该项研究旨在检验美国先正达公司研制的转基因“黄金(1658.90
,1.80,0.11%)大米”对补充人体维生素A的作用。
绿色和平表示,早在2008年,农业部和浙江省农业厅在得知该研究计划后即叫停该
项目。但一篇2012年8月1日发布于《美国临床营养学杂志》的论文显示,这项由美国塔
夫茨大学的唐广文领导并获得美国卫生院和美国农业部资金支持的研究最终得以完成。
绿色和平认为,用中国儿童作为转基因大米的实验对象是极其不负责任的行为,呼
