in a 2004 study, they found that part of the roundup-ready gene , the gene of the soybean sprayed with roundup, transfered into the dna of the bacteria living inside our intestines. and that that bacteria was only -- was until a bowl -- was unkillable with roundup. this suggests that doesn't prove that when the genetically engineered crops transfers to gut bacteria, it continues to function. genetically modified proteins continuously, 24/7 inside our digestive tract. they didn't see whether eating a corn chip could turn your intestinal floor into a living pesticide factory. corn in the united states is made with bt corn and with round up ready corn. what if it transfers to the gut bacteria and continues to produce the bt toxin? that might explain why 93% of the pregnant women tested had bt toxin in their blood, as they are producing it continually inside of them. this was never confirmed. this was never tested. which is a tragedy. because we are feeding it to the entire population. but if you just look at the quality of the bt toxin and roundup, it could explain all of the different re

in a 2004 study they found parts of the roundup ready soybean gene, the gene that is the soybean thatan be sprayed with dnadup transferred into the of the bacteria living inside the intestines. the bacteria was uncontrollable with roundup. suggests but does not prove that when the gene of from genetically engineered crops, it ortinues to function him reducing genetically modified proteins continuously 24/7 --ide the digestive chat digestive tract. they did not study whether eating a corn chip could live it into living intestinal factors. what do i mean by that? corn in the united states is reduced with roundup corn. gene that produces the toxin is in the corn. what if it transfers to the gut bacteria? explain why 93% of the pregnant women tested had the toxin in their blood, because they are producing continuously inside of us. this was never confirmed. this was never tested, which is a tragedy, because we are feeding it to the entire population. if you just look at the quality of the toxin, it could explain all of the different reports that now thousands of physicians described the d

that's just one way in which we will categorize a song's genes. so we used the music genome project as a starting point to analyze our music. we also use collective intelligence, so think of that as how a song plays for everybody on the service. so if you have a station that you seated with the allman brothers, for example, we can tell how well songs by the marshall tucker band plays for everyone who has a similar station. we also use collaborative filtering which you can think of as sort of the individual level kind of analysis. so if both you and i happen to look a song by the allman brothers and you happen to like "this old cowboy" by the marshall tucker band -- and i'm giving away a little bit of my musical tastes in these examples, i know -- there's some statistical likelihood that i will also like "this old cowboy" like -- by the marshall tucker band. so we take those three ways of looking at music, and then listeners come on to the service, and they're asked to give us the name of a song, an artist or a genre of music, and they start the se

>> gene has a piercing look. >> i thought -- >> the blue eyes. >> that's very cool. okay, gene, one to ten the pitch. >> well, first of all, i'm going an eight to the pitch. the only reason why i'm not saying it's a perfect ten this is the way it is on the show when you're throwing out numbers i don't know. like what your finances are like, what you're going to be earning, i would need to see more. i think your approach is fantastic, the way you laid it out. you made me understand what you're trying to do in just a minute. i give you a lot of credit for that. >> all right. >> i give it a nine. you're very confident. i understood the idea. it was compelling and you obviously have a short amount of time to deliver a lot of information. the only reason i docked one point, i would have liked to have understand your final audience. i know you mentioned schools but it was so brief. i missed that. i had to go back and think who was the audience for the truck. i would talk more about your final audience and who's going to be bringing you the dollars. >> one of the highest sc

in a 2004 study, they found that part of the roundup-ready gene , the gene of the soybean sprayed with roundup, transfered into the dna of the bacteria living inside our intestines. and that that bacteria was only -- was until a bowl -- was unkillable with roundup. this suggests that doesn't prove that when the genetically engineered crops transfers to gut bacteria, it continues to function. genetically modified proteins continuously, 24/7 inside our digestive tract. they didn't see whether eating a corn chip could turn your intestinal floor into a living pesticide factory. corn in the united states is made with bt corn and with round up ready corn. what if it transfers to the gut bacteria and continues to produce the bt toxin? that might explain why 93% of the pregnant women tested had bt toxin in their blood, as they are producing it continually inside of them. this was never confirmed. this was never tested. which is a tragedy. because we are feeding it to the entire population. but if you just look at the quality of the bt toxin and roundup, it could explain all of the different re

on day three, the genes that didn't die off began to activate. pluripotency is the ability of a cell to transform itself into or kinds of tissue. on day five the cells began to form clusters. and on day seven, they became embryonic cells. the team members repeated the experiments 22 times. but they say they could not find the early stage phenomenon in which genes related to pluripotency began to activate. >> >> translator: we haven't produced any stap cells yet in the method we used so far. >> they will continue to conduct the experiments until march. they will conduct verification experiments separately through the end of november. the researchers say they also want to gather data on what the rezermers are posting on social media like twitter. they plan to share the results with regional governments and business people in related industries. >> do you feel happy just to be alive right now? when she was diagnose nosed with her disease, doctors told her she had six months to live. that was two years ago. >> our time is limited. i think it's best i
