Cow goes "Piss Orf!"

[] British scientists make human-cow embryos

British researchers say they have created embryos using human cells and
the egg cells of cows, but said such experiments would not lead to hybrid
human-animal babies, or even to direct medical therapies.

Dr. Lyle Armstrong of Newcastle University presented preliminary data on
his work to Israel's parliament last week, Newcastle University said in a
statement released on Tuesday.

They said they had hollowed out the egg cells of cattle and inserted
human DNA to create a growing embryo. The hope would be to take it apart
to get embryonic stem cells.

Details of the work were not available because the researchers have not
yet published their study in a scientific journal
