"In November 1998, publication of the research that human embryonic stem (ES) (I) cells and fetal stem cells [human embryonic germ (EG) cells] could be isolated and propagated in culture represented not only a potential new source for insulin-secreting cells, but also, the promise of an unlimited supply, if scientists could unlock the secrets to directing differentiation and proliferation"(Nierras and Stallard, 94).

November 1998, research that embryonic stem cells could make "insulin-secreting" cells and possibly an infinite amount (Nierras and Stallard, 94).

Juevenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) supports the use of embryonic stem cell research and wants funding from the government because it can lead to the cure of diabetes.

   So I have chosen Coca Cola ads for my writing project. The first one is a 1943 ad displaying a soldier seeing a sign with Coca Cola on it and he says "howdy friend". The soldier was away from home for however long during the war that when he comes home seeing coke makes him happy to be back just like seeing a friend or loved one. The second one is a Coca Cola ad for the 2012 olympics which portrays the Midwest floods in 2008 right before she left for Beijing. Seeing a celebrity or athlete in a product ad makes that makes it more appealing especially like this one where there is also some sort of catastrophe linked to it.
