Pretty scary that Interpol helped arresting a journalist in a different country for tweeting negative about Muhammad.

This is the Tweet that got him arrested:
"I have loved things about you and I have hated things about you and there is a lot I don't understand about you … I will not pray for you."

Interesting is that actually the journalist got many death treats after placing this tweet but so-far noone has been arrested for that. So a death treat is freedom of speech but the above tweet is not? Crazy world!

Amazing footage from Griffiths' lab at +Cambridge University where the put a youtube movie online about a T-cell attacking a cancerous cell.

Professor Gillian Griffiths:
"Cells of the immune system protect the body against pathogens. If cells in our bodies are infected by viruses, or become cancerous, then killer cells of the immune system identify and destroy the affected cells. Cytotoxic T cells are very precise and efficient killers. They are able to destroy infected or cancerous cells, without destroying healthy cells surrounding them. The Wellcome Trust funded laboratory of Professor Gillian Griffiths, at the Cambridge Institute for Medical Research, investigates just how this is accomplished. By understanding how this works, we can develop ways to control killer cells. This will allow us to find ways to improve cancer therapies, and ameliorate autoimmune diseases caused when killer cells run amok and attack healthy cells in our bodies."
