    also I like a beer and sex, I always wondered why this jewrk yak (yaakov-lev), whenever he is trying to insult me, he is mentioning

    my mother (deceised), my sister (never had one) and all this in-breeding sex stories (don't the jews control pornography ?)

    well, I think I just discovered this demented individual reasons

    Bobby, you d!ckhead with a sister in Jew York, the demented carrier of the Tay-Sachs gene, unable to procreate in normal manner

    BELOW WE CAN FIND WHY those JEWRKS ARE OUTBREED BY ANYONE ELSE, THE NUMBERS ARE AGAINST THEM., hehehe



    The Jewish Star of David for carriers of Tay-Sachs gene





    The standard Star of David




    from http://www.aish.com/literacy/concepts/Star_of_David.asp

    in modern times, the Star of David has become a premier Jewish symbol. This six-pointed star (hexagram), made of two interlocking triangles, can be found on mezuzahs, menorahs, tallis bags, and kipot. Ambulances in Israel bear the sign of the "Red Star of David," and the flag of Israel has a blue Star of David planted squarely in the center.

    What is the origin of this six-pointed symbol?


    The six points symbolize God's rule over the universe in all six directions.

    Through the Jewish people's long and often difficult history, we have come to the realization that our only hope is to place our trust in God. The six points of the Star of David symbolize God's rule over the universe in all six directions: north, south, east, west, up and down.



    Originally, the Hebrew name Magen David -- literally "Shield of David" -- poetically referred to God. It acknowledges that our military hero, King David, did not win by his own might, but by the support of the Almighty. This is also alluded to in the third blessing after the Haftorah reading on Shabbat: "Blessed are you God, Shield of David."

    Various other explanations exist on the meaning behind the Star of David.

    One idea is that a six-pointed star receives form and substance from its solid center. This inner core represents the spiritual dimension, surrounded by the six universal directions. (A similar idea applies to Shabbat -- the seventh day which gives balance and perspective to the six weekdays.)


    In Kabbalah, the two triangles represent the dichotomies inherent in man.

    In Kabbalah, the two triangles represent the dichotomies inherent in man: good vs. evil, spiritual vs. physical, etc. The two triangles may also represent the reciprocal relationship between the Jewish people and God. The triangle pointing "up" symbolizes our good deeds which go up to heaven, and then activate a flow of goodness back down to the world, symbolized by the triangle pointing down.

    A more practical theory is that during the Bar Kochba rebellion (first century), a new technology was developed for shields using the inherent stability of the triangle. Behind the shield were two interlocking triangles, forming a hexagonal pattern of support points. (Buckminster Fuller showed how strong triangle-based designs are with his geodesics.)

    One cynical suggestion is that the Star of David is an appropriate symbol for the internal strife that often afflicts Jewish nation: two triangles pointing in opposite directions!


    The Star of David was also a sad symbol of the Holocaust.

    The Star of David was a sad symbol of the Holocaust, when the Nazis forced Jews to wear an identifying yellow star. Actually, Jews were forced to wear special badges during the Middle Ages, both by Muslim and Christian authorities, and even in Israel under the Ottoman Empire.

    So whether it is a blue star waving proudly on a flag, or a gold star adorning a synagogue's entrance, the Star of David stands as a reminder that for the Jewish people... in God we trust.like on the US banknote !, hehe



    and now some info about the disease itself :


    ALL OF US CARRY GENES, IN PAIRS, located along 23 pairs of chromosomes. TSD is controlled by a pair of genes on chromosome 15; these are the genes that code for the enzyme Hex-A. If either or both Hex-A genes are active, the body produces enough of the enzyme to prevent the abnormal build-up of the GM2 ganglioside lipid. Carriers of TSD - people who have one copy of the inactive gene along with one copy of the active gene - are healthy. They do not have Tay-Sachs disease. The only significance of being a carrier is the possibility of passing the inactive gene to one's children.

    A carrier has a 50% chance of passing the inactive gene on to his or her children; any child who inherits one inactive gene is a Tay-Sachs carrier like the parent. If both parents are carriers and their child inherits the inactive TSD gene from each of them, the child will have Tay-Sachs disease since he or she has inherited two inactive recessive genes and , therefore, cannot produce any functional Hex-A.

    When both parents are carriers of the inactive Tay-Sachs gene, they have a 1 in 4 chance (25%) with each pregnancy that their child will have Tay-Sachs Disease, and a 3 in 4 chance (75%) that their child will be healthy. Of their unaffected children, there is a 2 in 3 chance that each child will be a carrier, like the parents. This pattern of inheritance is called autosomal recessive.

    RECESSIVE DISEASES SUCH AS Tay-Sachs often occur more frequently, though not exclusively, in a defined population. A person's chances of being a TSD carrier are significantly higher if he or she is of eastern European (Ashkenazi) Jewish descent. Approximately one in every 27 Jews in the United States is a carrier of the TSD gene. There is also a noticeable incidence of TSD in non-Jewish French Canadians living near the St. Lawrence River and in the Cajun community of Louisiana. By contrast, the carrier rate in the general population as well as in Jews of Sephardic origin is about one in 250.

    Fact: A person's chances of being a TSD Carrier are significantly higher if he or she is of Eastern European (Ashkenazi) Jewish descent.

    While there are certain populations known to be at higher risk for carrying an altered Hex-A gene, anyone in any population can be a carrier of TSD. If two such individuals have children, they will have the same one in four chance, with each pregnancy, of having a child with TSD. In fact, over the past 25 years, carrier screening and genetic counseling within high-risk populations have greatly reduced the number of children born with TSD in these groups; at the same time the number of children born with TSD to couples not known a priori to be at high risk of being carriers of TSD has remained more or less constant. Therefore, a great percentage of the babies born with Tay-Sachs Disease today are born to couples who were not previously thought to be at significant risk.

    TAY-SACHS MOST OFTEN APPEARS IN families with no prior history of the disease. The TSD gene can be carried without being expressed through many generations. Before 1970, the only way to learn if one was a Tay-Sachs carrier was to be the parent of a baby with TSD. Now, safe and reliable carrier testing is available to identify Tay-Sachs carriers. Most important, testing can identify carrier couples who are at risk for bearing a child with TSD - before a tragedy occurs. With this vital information, couples can explore the various options that will enable them to protect their families from this devastating disease.

    A simple blood test can distinguish Tay-Sachs carriers from non-carriers. Blood samples can be analyzed by either enzyme assay or DNA studies. The enzyme assay is a biochemical test that measures the level of Hex-A in a person's blood. Carriers have less Hex-A in their body fluid and cells than non-carriers. (Babies with Tay-Sachs disease have a total absence of Hex-A in their cells.) The biochemical test is able to detect all Tay-Sachs carriers of all ethnic backgrounds.

    Accurate biochemical testing requires laboratories to be proficient in specialized laboratory procedures and experienced in the interpretation of test results. To ensure accuracy, person seeking such carrier testing for TSD should verify that the analysis is being performed at a laboratory that participates in the Tay-Sachs Quality Control Program supported by NTSAD. A complete list of laboratories affiliated with the Quality Control Program is available on our website or through our Home Office.

    Fact: Tay-Sachs carrier testing is vital for individuals in High-Risk populations who are planning to have children and for the close relatives of families with an affected child.
    DNA-based carrier testing looks for specific mutations, or changes, in the gene that codes for Hex-A. Since 1985, when the Hex-A gene was isolated, over 50 different mutations in this gene have been identified. Some are more prevalent than others, and a few are associated with a later-onset form of the disease, rather than with the infantile form described here.

    The limitation of DNA-based carrier testing is that not all known mutations in the Hex-A gene are detected by the test, and others have yet to be identified. The tests currently available detect about 95% of carriers of Ashkenazi Jewish background and about 60% of non-Jewish individuals. Therefore, some people who are carriers will not be identified by DNA analysis alone.

    DNA testing can provide very important information when used in conjunction with biochemical testing, especially in cases where both members of a couple are determined to be carriers. Knowing information about the mutations carried by each parent, and whether they are classical or Late-Onset Tay-Sachs mutations, is important if a couple chooses to undergo prenatal diagnosis.

    Tay-Sachs carrier testing is vital for individuals in high-risk populations who are planning to have children. Even if your childbearing years are over, your carrier status can provide extremely important information. If you are a carrier, your close relatives (children, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles) should be alerted to be tested as well. Tay-Sachs carrier testing is also vital for the close relatives of families with an affected child, regardless of ethnic background, since all parents of children with Tay-Sachs are, by definition, carriers.
