# Found - The Hibernation Gene That Could Send Man to the Stars. Scientists
have discovered genes for hibernation in humans. Human hibernation would
make long-haul space travel feasible, with crews put to sleep for months,
or even years, by triggering the hibernation genes that man's distant
ancestors used millions of years ago to sleep through hostile winters.

# Haider defends Waffen-SS. FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) Austrian fascist leader
Joerg Haider rejects the idea of collective guilt of troops of the Waffen-
SS, a Nazi legion involved in horrific WWII atrocities. Instead, "individ-
ual guilt is what matters...It can never be the Waffen SS as such but only
individuals ... who bear the responsibility" for crimes committed by the
organization. Haider's father was a member of the SA, the Nazi brownshirt
stormtroopers who also served as Adolf Hitler's bodyguards. The SS - short
for Schutzstaffel, or Protection Squad - was an offshoot of the SA and
became a special formation in 1929 when Heinrich Himmler took command.

# Asian hipsters: Japan hot, US not. TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) Bouncy Japanese pop
tunes fill the air as smells of traditional Chinese pot-sticker dumplings
sizzle in a streetside cart in Taipei's Hsimenting shopping district. The
mix of cultures continues on the ground, where Taiwanese teens cruise the
square dressed much like their peers in Tokyo: platform moon boots, bright
pink sweaters, droopy leg-warmer socks and stiff horizontal pigtails that
jut out from their heads. Hipsters are wearing the same things in other
major Asian capitals, just one of the many signs that the region that was
once US-crazy is in the tight grip of a Japanese culture invasion. Hello
Kitty is cool, Mickey Mouse is not. And don't even think about those lame
French: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2564058611-13f

be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
