Nevertheless, their discovery has moved stem-cell research back to an embryonic state of its own - in which anything, it seems, is possible...
...Phnom Penh. The sense of history was palpable. "I came here because I wanted to know what Duch would say," said Chum Mey, 77, one of only a dozen or so former inmates to emerge alive from Duch?s notorious S-21 prison and torture center. ?If he would admit that he killed people...
