[font=comic sans ms][size=10pt][b]1. Japanese researchers are trying to bring a mammoth back to life![/b]
The plan is to clone a mammoth to create a new mammoth embryo that they can implant into a modern elephant’s uterus. This prehistoric animal has long since become extinct. Luckily, scientists have access to the mammoth’s DNA by obtaining a tissue sample from the preserved remains of a mammoth in Russia. Since modern elephants are the closest living relatives to mammoths, an elephant will be used to give birth to the mammoth. They hope to have successfully create a living mammoth in the next 5-6 years.
The process that will be used to recreate the mammoth has already been tested on mice. Researchers in 2008 have successfully cloned mice using the frozen cells of mice that had been dead for 16 years.


[b]2. Ringing in your ears is caused by your brain attempting to repair itself and failing.[/b]
Researchers claim that ringing in your ears, also called tinnitus, is caused by the lack of sound due to gradual hearing loss. This hearing loss can be caused by various factors, among them normal aging, loud-noise exposure, or an accident. The brain therefore is inclined to produce its own sounds to replace the frequencies that are missing in what the ear hears.


[b]3. There is a town named “Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch”[/b]
This is a town on the island of Anglesey in Wales. It is the longest name of a place in Europe and one of the longest place names in the world. Of course, if you need to, you can shorten it toLlanfairpwllgwyngyll or even Llanfair PG.

[b]4. The word ‘news’ is not an acronym that stands for ‘North, East, West, and South. [/b]
Quite simply, it is a word that is used to refer to recent events…or in other words, NEW things…NEWS. It’s really not any more complicated than that. ([url=http://www.snopes.com/language/acronyms/news.asp]http://www.snopes.com/language/acronyms/news.asp[/url])


[b]5. Searching for ‘elgooG’ on Google will take you to a Google website that is completely backwards.[/b]
Backwards version of the ultra-popular search engine will come up directly if you click the ‘I’m Feeling Lucky’ button instead of ‘Google Search.’ The site was originally created just for fun, but has actually become quite useful in China after Google was banned there.[/size][/font]
