One test May 'find many cancers'

Targeting just one chemical inside cancerous cells Could one day Lead to a single test for a broad range of cancers, researchers say.

The same system Could then be used to deliver precision radiotherapy.

Scientists Told the National Cancer Research Institute conference broke hadd been Able to find breast cancer in mice weeks befor a lump hadd been detected .

The same target chemical Was Also present in cancers of the lung, skin, Kidney and bladder, broke said.

The team, at the Gray Institute for Radiation Oncology and Biology at Oxford University, Were looking for a protein, called gamma-H2AX, Which is Produced in response to Damaged DNA. This tends to became one of the first Steps on the road to a cell Becoming cancerous

Forming tumours

The scientists used an Antibody That is the perfect partner to gamma-H2AX and Able to seek it out in the body.

This Was TURNEDâ into a cancer test by attaching small amounts of radioactive material to the Antibody. If the Radiation gathered in one place it would be a sign of a potential tumour.

The researchers trialled the test on genetically modified mice, which are highly-susceptible to forming tumours.

Prof. Katherine VALLIS said lumps Could be Felt When the mice Were about 120 days old, but "we detected changes priorities to dry at 90 to 100 days - Before a tumour is clinically apparent."

She Told the BBC that 'gamma-H2AX Was a "fairly general Phenomenon" and it "would be the dream" to Develop a single test for a wide range of cancers.

However this is still at a very EARLY stage.

Self-amplifying system

Adding more Radiation to the Antibody Could convert the test to a treatment.

Prof VALLIS said "it is attracted to DNA Damage", where it then delivers a dose of Radiation, causing more Damage and attracting not even more antibodies - it is a "self-amplifying system".

Eventually the doses of Radiation Should be so much Damage to the cancerous cells that broke would be killed.

She said: "This Early Research Reveals That tracking this IMPORTANT molecule Could Allow us to detect DNA Damage throughou the body.

"If larger studies Confirm this, the protein coulda provid a new route to detect cancer at its very earlies stage - When it is easier to treat successfully."

Dr Julie Sharp, from Cancer Research UK, said: "This Important Study Reveals that targeting this key molecule Could provid an exciting route for new Ways to detect cancer at an earlier stage - and help to deliver radiotherapy and monitor its effect on tumours."

Stem cell op may 'restore sperm'

Boys left infertile by childhood cancer treatment may one day be able to produce healthy sperm by using stored stem cells, monkey research suggests.

Chemotherapy and radiotherapy can kill tumours and the cells which make sperm.

A study, published in the journal Cell Stem Cell, extracted sperm-producing stem cells before cancer treatment and later placed them back into the monkey.

Sperm which could fertilise an egg were produced, which experts labelled a "milestone" in research.

Most men who have cancer treatment which could affect their fertility can choose to freeze sperm before their treatment starts. This is not an option for patients who have not yet gone through puberty.

However, they do have the spermatogonial stem cells which would start to produce sperm in their teenage years.

The researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and the Magee-Womens Research Institute took samples of the stem cells from macaques and stored them in a freezer.

The monkeys were then given a chemotherapy drug.

Their own stem cells were implanted back where they came from after the course of chemotherapy had ended. Nine out of 12 adult monkeys and three out of five prepubescent monkeys were later able to produce sperm again.

Separate experiments showed eggs could be fertilised with sperm produced after the procedure.

'Feasible'

Dr Kyle Orwig, from the department of obstetrics, gynaecology and reproductive medicine at Pitt School of Medicine, said: "This study demonstrates that spermatogonial stem cells from higher primates can be frozen and thawed without losing their activity, and that they can be transplanted to produce functional sperm that are able to fertilise eggs and give rise to early embryos."

He said there were still many challenges before this could be used in people: "Should we re-introduce the spermatogonial cells as soon as treatment is over, or wait until the patient is considered cured of his disease, or when he is ready to start a family? How do we eliminate the risk of cancer recurrence if we give back untreated cells that might include cancer cells?

"These are issues we still must work through, but this study does show us the concept is feasible."

Dr Allan Pacey, senior lecturer in andrology at the University of Sheffield, told the BBC that the idea had been discussed repeatedly but "experiments have never come close to suggesting it might work in humans".

However, he said: "This report is a very useful step forward and clearly shows that the science of spermatogonial stem cells transplantation might one day work for humans. And, although the authors report relatively low efficiency so far, in the context of someone who does not have any banked sperm to fall back on, these odds are probably very encouraging to make this kind of approach worthwhile."

He also highlighted safety concern saying: "It would be a disaster to give the cancer back to someone because cancer cells are lurking in the transplant.

"But also we need to make sure that the genetics of sperm produced from transplanted spermatogonial stem cells is correct and leads to the birth of healthy offspring which themselves give rise to healthy grandchildren and great grandchildren."

Pierre Fouchet, a researcher at the CEA Institute of Cellular and Molecular Radiobiology in France, said the results: "Constitute a milestone in the field of reproduction and generate hope for restoring fertility in survivors of childhood cancer."

However, he said advances in fertility research needed "intense debate" about the social consequences.

Alzheimer's detected decades before symptoms

The shrunken brain of an Alzheimer's patient compared with a healthy one

Researchers have found some of the earliest signs of Alzheimer's disease, more than two decades before the first symptoms usually appear.

Treating the disease early is thought to be vital to prevent damage to memory and thinking.

A study, published in the Lancet Neurology, found differences in the brains of an extended Colombian family predisposed to develop an early form of Alzheimer's.

Experts said the US study may give doctors more time to treat people.

Alzheimer's disease starts long before anyone would notice; previous studies have shown an effect on the brain 10-15 years before symptoms.

It is only after enough brain cells have died that the signs of dementia begin to appear - some regions of the brain will have lost up to 20% of their brain cells before the disease becomes noticeable.

However, doctors fear so much of the brain will have degenerated by this time that it will be too late to treat patients. The failure of recent trials to prevent further cognitive decline in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease has been partly put down to timing.

Early start

A team at the Banner Alzheimer's Institute in Arizona looked at a group of patients in Colombia who have familial Alzheimer's. A genetic mutation means they nearly always get the disease in their 40s. Alzheimer's normally becomes apparent after the age of 75.

Brain scans of 20 people with the mutation, aged between 18 and 26, already showed differences compared with those from 24 people who were not destined to develop early Alzheimer's.

The fluid which bathes the brain and spinal cord also had higher levels of a protein called beta-amyloid.

The researchers said differences could be detected "more than two decades before" symptoms would appear in these high-risk patients.

Dr Eric Reiman, one of the scientists involved, said: "These findings suggest that brain changes begin many years before the clinical onset of Alzheimer's disease.

"They raise new questions about the earliest brain changes involved in the predisposition to Alzheimer's and the extent to which they could be targeted by future prevention therapies."

Prof Nick Fox, from the Institute of Neurology at University College London, said some of his patients had lost a fifth of some parts of their brain by the time they arrived at the clinic.

He told the BBC: "I don't think this pushes us forwards in terms of early diagnosis, we already have markers of the disease.

"The key thing this does is open up the window of early intervention before people take a clinical and cognitive hit."

However, he said this raised the question of how early people would need to be treated - if drugs could be found.

Dr Simon Ridley, the head of research at Alzheimer's Research UK, said: "Although early-onset inherited Alzheimer's is rare and may not entirely represent the more common late-onset form, the findings highlight changes can take place in the brain decades before symptoms show.

"Mapping what changes happen early in the brain will help scientists to improve detection of the disease and allow potential new treatments to be tested at the right time.

"New drugs are being developed and tested to stop amyloid from taking hold, but studies like these show that timing could be crucial for whether these drugs are successful."

Gaza: Crocodile caught in sewage system

A crocodile Which Escaped from a zoo in the Gaza Strip two years ago faces finally been Captured, officials say.

Police enlisted the help of Fishermen to drain the pit and catch the reptile with shark Nets.

The animal, Which locals have accused of eating Their Livestock, has been Returned to the zoo.

The reptiles, Measuring 1.8m (6ft), hadd fled its Enclosur and crawled into a sewage pit near the northern town of Beit Lahi.

Wastewater Workers discovered the Fugitive animal in one of the sewage basins two months ago.

"He had a lot of spirit in him. He wanted to be free," Lt Col Samih al-Sultan, Who led the hunt, Told the Associated Press.

The animal's strength and Stubborn determinatio Earned it the nickname "Rock", the official added.

A team of six policemen and Fishermen sat in a boat in the pit for a fortnight, trying to catch the crocodile.

After Several failed attempts, broke eventually decided to drain the Pond and Managed to Snare the reptiles with shark Nets.

Locals have welcomed the capture of the crocodile, which broke-say encounters been eating Their ducks and goats.

"We Were afraid he would not eat us," said one farmer.

Zoo Workers said the crocodile hadd grown considerably over the last two years. It Remains unclear how the reptiles Managed to escape in the first place.

Sellafield nuclear Waste storage is 'Intolerable risk'

An "Intolerable Risk" is Being posed by hazardous Waste stored in run-down buildings at Sellafield nuclear plant, a watchdog has found.

The National Audit Office (NAO) Also said that 'for 50 years, the Operators of the Cumbria installation failed to Develop a long-term plan for Waste.

Costs of Decommissioning Plan meets Also spiraled out of control, it said.

Operator Sellafield Ltd, said it welcomed the report's findings and was "making improvements".

The plant is the UK's larges and most hazardous nuclear site, storing enough high and intermediate level radioactive Waste yarn to 27 Olympic-sized swimming pools.

The NAO report states however, that owners of the station will not know how long It will take to build storage and treatment centers for the hazardous material or how much the final bill for Decommissioning the plant is likely to swear.

'Ripe for dithering'

It Also concluded that 'over the five decade It was open, Operators failed to plan how to dispos of the radioactive Waste and some of the older halls have "deteriorated so much that' Their contents pose Significant risks to people and the Environment".

A long-term plan to clean up the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority-Owned Was Agreed site last year After an earlier one stalled Because it was "unrealistic".

Margaret Hodge, who and chairs the Public Accounts Committee, said: "Projects of this length and ambition are Ripe for dithering and delay.

"I am dismayed to discover the clean-up of Sellafield is no different. The Authority's revised plan sees critical Milestones shunted back by up to seven years.

"Hazardous radioactive Waste is housed in buildings which pose-'Intolerable risks to people and the Environment'.

"My Concern is that unless the Authority holds Sellafield Ltd to a clear and rigorously benchmarked plan, timetables Will Continue to slip and Costs spiral."

'Historic neglect'

The NAO report concluded that 'progress in 12 of the 14 major buildings and Equipment Projects considered "critical" for reducing risk, qual range in cost from £ 21m to £ 1.3bn, also failed to achie what broke Were supposed to and hadd not Provided good value for money.

Dr Ruth Balogh, of West Cumbria and North Lakes Friends of the Earth, said: "The UK's failure to deal with highly hazardous nuclear Waste at Sellafield is a National scandal That poses a Significant risk to local people and the Environment.

"The government runs completely ignored the urgent need for interim Measures to deal with this radioactive Waste.

"We should not build any new nuclear reactors if we can not deal with the radioactive mess that's already been created."

Around 240 of Sellafield's 1,400 buildings are nuclear halls and so far 55 buildings on the site have been decommissioned.

Amyas Morse, head of the National Audit Office, added: "Owing to historical neglect, the Authority faces a considerabl challenge in Taking forward Decommissioning at Sellafield.

"It is good that 'the Authority now faces a more robust lifetime plan in place but it can not say with certainty how long It will take to deal with hazardous radioactive Waste or how much it will cost."

Megaupload Sequel faces Gabon's suspension order setback

Efforts to Create a follow-up file-sharing service to Megaupload have been deal a blow After Gabon blocked access to its intended web address.

The West African nation said it WAS worried the Me.ga site would not host copyright infringing files.

Kim Dotcom - the tech Entrepreneur behind the scheme - said the move was a result of a "bad faith witch hunt" Being carried out by the U.S. government.

The 38-year-old faces Charges of money laundering and fraud, Which he denies.

He is currently living in New Zealand and engagede in a legal battle to Prevent historic extradition to the U.S., where he faces a Jail sentence of up to 20 years if found Guilty of earning about $ 175m (£ 109m) through illegal Means.

Defending Publishers

Mr Dotcom historic Detailed Plans to launch a Gabon-based service last week.

He said the product would be launched on 20 January, a year to the day since he Was Arrested alongside others who hadd worked at Megaupload.

He said that 'uploads to the site would be encrypted to ensur Their contents remained "Confidential", and hadd Suggested That basing the site at Gabon's. Ga domain, Rather than in the U.S., would "Avoid another takedown."

However Gabon's Communication Minister, Blaise Louembe, said he HAD ACTED to block the site BEFORE the service launched in order to "protect Intellectual Property rights."

"Gabon can not Serve as a platform for committing Acts aimed at type available Copyrights, nor became used by unscrupulous people," he said.

Back-up plan

Mr Dotcom Suggested the Decision hadd been taken as a consequence of pressure from the U.S. and the media group Vivendi.

"Do not worry. We have an alternative domain," he posted on Twitter .

In a later tweet, he ridiculed the move, Saying : "Gabon Minister used my machine to Analyze legality of the future Mega. Verdict: Cyber ​​crime! Gets $ 5 award from the FBI."

Although the Me.ga site is now offline, Mr Dotcom is still Providing information about historic Plans at an alternative site, at Which he Appeals for hosting Companies in Other Countries Who might 

Some measures to stop the expansion of veins

Preventive measures does not make sense to apply only for a certain time, but constantly, because it is the only way that enables the protection of the health of feet.

Although preventive measures can not eliminate all of the main causes that cause this disease, such as genetic predispositions, however, may be affected - either by prevention, mitigation, cessation or slowing of disease development.

measures:

More walking

Walking is very important. Physical activity is the simplest way with which stimulate blood circulation to the heart and eliminates the risk of interruption of the blood.

flexible hose

Transfer of flexible hose serves as a preventive measure, as well as for enhanced veins therapy, in cases where surgery is not necessary.

Sufficient food

Even the food is very important in the prevention of venous extended. Easily digested food and healthy helps prevent excessive weight, which is the cause of frequent venous enlargement. So, it is important to limit the introduction of sugar and fat in the body (especially of animal origin) and daily food enriched with food penjezor which helps digestion.

natural medicines

Against swelling of the feet can help some plants: wild chestnut, blueberry, red grape vine, and some other plants. There is evidence that components of those herbs strengthen the walls of blood vessels and capillaries.

Avoid bathing with hot water

Great heat is the enemy of veins: avoid shower with hot water. Water should always be lukewarm, no way hot. It would be good to shower after a short time to wash feet with cold water, becoming massage from the bottom-up, from the ankles towards the hips.

Six myths about flu vaccine

Flu season is on the brink and will be with us until next spring. Center for disease control and prevention (CDC) recommends that all persons older than six months be vaccinated.

During the influenza season 2011/2012, 128 million people in the U.S., which is 42 per cent, were vaccinated against the flu. CDC experts have pointed out that vaccination against influenza preventing five million cases of illness and 40,000 cases of hospitalization.

But myths and misinformation circulating as well as viruses. In addition we bring you the facts about the vaccine against influenza.

Myth 1: You can win or cooling of the vaccine against swine flu

Flu vaccine does not contain live virus, but only viral proteins, said dr. Dennis Cunningham, infektolog state children's hospital in Ohio. "It is impossible to win or be spread through the flu vaccine," he said. After receiving the injection some people may feel pain near the drilling of the vaccine or have temperature, but these are reactions to the vaccine, and not viral reactions.

Myth 2: The flu vaccine is safe for pregnant women or babies

Flu vaccine is safe for pregnant women and babies with greater than six months. American Congress of Obstetrics and Gynaecology recommends vaccinating pregnant women, because the vaccine not only protects the mother but also its fruit. It has been shown that this vaccine reduces the risk of the birth of the child that died. It is also recommended vaccination of children older than six months because this reduces the risk of mortality from influenza.

Myth 3: antibiotics are sufficient to fight against flu

Antibiotics kill bacteria, but causes flu virus. There are antiviral drugs that fight against infections, but they act only if i get within 48 hours after the symptoms begin. Also, medicines can help to shorten the duration of flu for a day or two to hospital patients.

Myth 4: You do not need to get the flu vaccine if you have received in the past year

There are two reasons due to which people should receive the vaccine every year:

1. Viruses circulate from year to year and there are hundreds of different. Every year, medical experts identify the virus that causes illness during influenza season and vaccine made against him.

2. Vaccine protects the immune system about eight months. For example, if you get the vaccine in August are safe until March, but these antibodies would not be developed until the next flu season.

Myth 5: The vaccine against influenza contains tiomerosal, which can be harmful

Never has been shown that tiomerosali, konservansi containing mercury is harmful. Type of mercury, which damages the nervous system is metilzhiva and for this reason, experts recommend that pregnant women avoid certain types of fish like swordfish.

Although it has been shown that it is not harmful, since 2001 U.S. mercury was removed from vaccines. Vaccinations against influenza are available in two forms: in large bottles which contain many doses and small bottle containing a single dose. In large bottles smaller dose tiomerosolit which ensures that not to come to the creation of bacteria, and is not present in individual doses.

Myth 6: because the flu can feel pain, but this is not true disease so you do not need vaccine

"Flu is very serious disease," said Cunningham. Each year from the disease fall ill between 15 and 60 million people. More than 200,000 end up in hospital. In the U.S. each year between 3,000 and 50,000 people die from complications arising due to the flu.

The reason why people do not get the flu as a serious illness is to disturb the stomach flu, respectively misleading influence viral infection.

"True influenza is an infection of the lungs and respiratory tract. May have fever and feel pain in the body. While the stomach flu is caused by a virus called norovirus, have diarrhea, vomit and have other digestive problems, while influenza has these symptoms, "said Cunningham. (Globisot)

Exercise repair cardiovascular problems

Daily exercise can help to repair the heart of someone who may have suffered from a stroke. This reveals a new study "John Moore University" in Liverpool, under which regular physical reporting exercises do that dormant stem cells in the heart of the active return. It stimulates the development of new heart muscle.

The discovery, published in the "European Heart Journal", suggests that scientists may be soon able to improve the quality of life for people suffering from heart disease, or those who have suffered a heart attack. This in fact is the first study of its kind that suggests a bazim mode of exercise may have the same effect on the heart, such as the injection of chemicals to stimulate growth of dormant stem cells to produce new tissue.

Testing is done once mice, which succumbed in a controlled work for 1 hour and a half during the 4 times a week, while the end it turned out that 60% of heart cells become active.

While Professor Jeremy Perason about this study explained: "This study shows that adult human hearts may be capable of producing new muscles dormant stem cells. However, other studies are needed to prove that it was observed in this study can be translated into treatments for patients people ".

Best ways to remove germs

No longer do you have to do microbes war to keep his family protected from virus diseases.
Just follow these seven basic steps very important:

1. Teach your child to wash his hands in those key moments: after going to the bathroom, after animal peerkedheljes after entertainment-playing outdoors and before eating.

2. Make the washing of hands in the right way: with soap and water, which takes 20 seconds to be rubbing, so as to kill off germs.

3. Take own bottle SHAMPOS that hands with him during the visit of games gardens, and other countries where can become dirty hands. Make sure to clean any part of the hand, including under the nails, if possible.

4. After preparing food, wash your hands with warm water and soap, and if possible with any disinfectant. Bacteria often found in uncooked meats - including kampilobakterin, salmonellen and E.coli - which are more dangerous than any other bacteria that may have at home.

5. Wash small cuts or graze with soap and water. Apply any antibacterial liquid, put the bandage and change the bandage every day until the wound is healed.

6. Make sure that children receive them in time and consider vaccinations flu vaccine every year. Child who is in school who is vaccinated against the flu is less likely to bring home any virus which can infect the entire family.

7. If someone at home is sick, stop a moment to clean door handles, TV remote control, toys, and other things that can affect your child during the day.

Milk diet for weight reduction

If you want to lose weight in a short time, you can apply with milk diet. The effect of this is loss of 2 kileve for three days.

Let's start from the basic question: What is milk?

Milk is a very important and useful output for man. In its composition are vitamins A, B, C, E, calcium and many minerals, proteins. Consumption of one liter of milk within a day meets the body needs protein. Dairy products also affect the good digestive system, so even if you want to lose weight, it would be better to use one or another form of milk, cheese, yogurt.

Milk diet lowers the level of cholesterol in the blood, strengthens bones, nervous system, normalize intestinal function and improves micro-flora. It also improves skin condition and even diet also helps in removing acne. These are some of the reasons why it is so popular.

Milk diet-menu

Before each meal, drink a glass of non-carbonated mineral water.

Breakfast? 1 yogurt, 1 banana, tea with honey or coffee with milk, no sugar.

Lunch: 100 gr grain, 200 gr cheese, 1 cup of milk.

Dinner: 1 fried egg, salad vegetables, fresh cheese and 1 cup yogurt.

After dinner: 1 pear and yogurt.

Prior to the moon

A detailed study of the moon, compiled for the next decade, involves the realization of the two cuts on its surface, an orbital expedition and return to earth perspective of the samples of lunar soil. Projects will be carried out in wider international cooperation.

Russian lunar program for exploration of the Moon was presented at the Third International Symposium Moscow for solar system research, which was held recently at the Institute of Space Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Lunar exploration plan was presented by Academician Lev Zelionij, Director of the Institute of the above mentioned.

First unique project "Moon-Globe" is now divided into two parts: Orbital reduction apparatus and appliances, with issuance in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The first project will focus on the processing of soft reduction technologies (landing), while the orbital will be more interesting in terms of lunar research. Planned orbital camera "Moon-Globe" to work on consistency in three orbits at altitudes of 50, 150 and 500 kilometers. These three heights are necessary for various scientific experiments, in particular, for the study of cosmic ray particles to ultra high energies (ultrahigh).

In 2017 is planned to be carried out on the Moon reducing cosmic apparatus "Moon-Resource" which will become present in meaningful research station administration. Mass of scientific instruments will be about two times higher than that of the apparatus aterues "Moon-Globe". And, finally, the most important stage of the program should be done on earth behavior of lunar soil (project "Luna-Grunt" ("Moon-Soil"), which, if everything will be good throughout, planned be implemented in 2019, though, as conceded Lev Zelionij, preparation of the project itself to this date is impregnated with a certain risk.

"Moon-Globe", "moon-Resource" will be realized in cooperation with Europe. European Space Agency (covetousness.with European Space Agency, ESA) has also stated recently on a plan to provide behavior on earth lunar soil in the years 2020-2022. In a sense, the forerunner of the project and must be it "moon-Resource".

ESA will provide for this project drilling installation (probe). A problem requiring solution is also taken for analysis of lunar soil samples from a depth of 1.5-2 meters, which should not be contaminated by the products of labor engine landing. International cooperation is also possible in other parts of the project: from design of experiments and their implementation on board the spaceship appliances ended their joint processing.

Melting of Greenland has reached frightening levels

Previously pahasur melting ice in Greenland during this month has baffled NASA scientists and has raised concerns that the region is losing a very large part of ice, much more than was anticipated.

According to NASA spokesman about half of the ice surface Greennland-es dissolves in the usual way during an average summer.

But independent data from satellites during July, analizara by NASA experts and scientists have shown that in less than a week the amount of ice melt has gone from 40% to 97%.

In shumne than 30 years of observations, satellites have never measured this amount of melting, which reaches almost the entire surface of the Greenland ice coverage-es.

When Son Nghiem of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA observed the phenomenon of melting, he said in the press release NASA: "This is so awesome At the beginning I put in doubt the data; Was it real or was everything due to an error in the data that we had? "

Scientists to Goddard Space Flight Center NASA, the University of Georgia-Athens and the City University of New York, all have confirmed the thawing process.

Manager kriptosferes programs that NASA, Tom Wagner gave merit observation satellites melting and explained to The Huffington Post that, although specific event may be part of a natural change, "We have sufficient evidence that Greenland -a is losing ice, perhaps due to global warming, and this is contributing significantly to increasing the level of the sea. "

Wagner said that ice is being diluted significantly around the peripheral side, thus changing the overall mass of the ice Greenland-es, and he believes that this is largely due to warming ocean waters.

He said carefully: "There is likely to be related to anthropogenic warming."

This extreme sapecifike fusion occurred in part because of an unusual weather over Greenland this year.

Distinct fusion occurred in specific regions of Greenland as for example the area around Summit Station, located two miles above sea level. Never since 1889 has not been such a merger, according to the analysis of ice crust tepershkruar press release NASA.

Researcher ice Lora Koenig said that similar fusion event occurring once in about 150 years. But she added that if we will be confronted with such events again in the next few years, will have to fillpnim seriously worried.

"One of the big questions is: 'What has happened to the Arctic in general?'." Wagner said Huff Post.

Only last week a another unusual event occurred in the region; Petermann Glacier Greenland-es broke an iceberg the size of Manhattan twice.

In recent months, separated from each other studies have been done showing that people are playing a crucial role in heating oqesaneve and that specific regions of the world are more susceptible to the rise of sea level.

Wagner explained that in recent years, studies have observed a dilution of sea ice and general changes dramatically.

It was clear: "We must always have in mind the fact that Greenland is losing a tremendous amount of ice and that this will affect the entire planet.

Scientists observed the light of ancient stars of the universe

Astrophysics experts, who work with the data of cosmic gamma-ray telescope "Fermi", discovered traces of light of the first stars of the universe.

According to scientists, to "see" radiation outside the galaxy is something very important, because it enables veshtimin ancient history of the Universe.

Scientists assume that the background radiation originating in the epoch from 300 thousand to 1 billion years after the Big Bang.

Observations helped scientists obtain new data on the process of the birth of ancient stars.

In particular, according to their calculations, the speed of formation of stars has been much lower than previously thought.

Water consumption during pregnancy

How much water should be consumed during the day

Optimal minimum water which pregnant should consume during the day is from 1.8 up to 2.5 l, and bear in mind that if you exercise or if it is hot time should consume even greater amounts, because now sweat more, but even if you stay space in which hot air dry. For this remember always keep a water bottle with you wherever you go.

If you have any problem with the kidney, high pressure or similar, consult your doctor, who will advise you what amount of water should consume no matter what your disease.

How often do you need to drink water

At best it would be to make the division of the quantity of liquids during the day, instead of drinking large quantities of only a few times a day. Orientohuni the number of meals and hearts and during each drink a glass or two of water, or fill in the amount recommended on the bottle, because as you will be able to check how much you drink, but you care.

Do not expect to have thirst, and then drink water. Some people do not feel thirsty, even when dehidrojne, while others are the first sign of dehydration.

Do you dare to drink water at night

Avoid consumption of water before you sleep, because for this you need to wake up during the night. Going to the toilet at night is the main problem associated with sleep during pregnancy.

If you're used to drink water at night, and do not present this problem, if you continue to drink and further, do not go overboard. Just a glass of water overnight.

A can replace water, juices, coffee

In pregnancy it is best to drink water, because nothing can replace primary is not containing calories shprazeta, while beverages which contain kafein (which is a diuretic) and sugar would have to avoid.

If you want to optimize the taste of water, Lemons any slice of lemon or orange.

How to care for baby cooled

             

Provision of drugs

Medicines sirupi form can be provided through lugezes, pipetes or bottle. Whatever is given, respecting the prescribed dose. Certain medications, if given even in smaller doses than for adults, can be toxic to the baby.

Right action: Put your child in gjysmeulur position. Fill pipeten with sirup, enter the pipeten care the baby's mouth, and release juices sirupit side of the mouth of the baby but not too deep. Baby Sucking reflex and often throw out the content via saliva. After taking the drug give the baby to drink water or milk, in order to better swallow the medicine.

Doctor's advice: The same action can replace with syringe injections. If half their pediatrician recommends lugeze of coffee with the drug, you can give the baby through syringe 2.5 ml drug, and if it shall recommend an entire lugez coffee, this means you give baby 5 ml drug.

Throwing in the eye points

Conjunctivitis, inflammation mukozales which saturate the internal part of the eye cap and white eye, often notified neonates. The doctor then ye shall describe the items or cream for the eye, which under the guidance should use them to your child.

Right action: Before you discard items or coat cream, you must first clean the baby's eyes with a physiological digestion gases from internal tip of the nose, up to the outer corner of the eye. Keep the baby's head with one hand and turn to one side, the opposite to that in which will throw points. Through thumb and index finger share with that of the lower upper lid. Take note in the internal corner of the eye, taking care that the tip of the bottle or pipette do not touch the eye.

Doctor's advice: If you put antibiotic cream, place the index finger in advance to clean better, and with one swift motion, from the corner of extensive internal and external, at the upper lid eyelash, coat cream in the baby's eye . Useful is to advance clean eye with physiological digestion and light massage the lots gland which is located in the internal corner of the eye.

Measuring temperature

Temperature measurement with the easiest can do through electronic thermometer, which you can buy in each pharmacy. Do not use the thermometer with mercury, which are prohibited in the market.

Right action: Clean the thermometer with the help of vates with any disinfectant. Capture baby's feet, ngritini feet slightly and place the thermometer very carefully in the anus. Heard the signal, remove the thermometer and check the screen than is temperature. This method is called rectal measurement, while in addition to this there is also way she axillary (under the armpit), and rare are the measurements in the ear, mouth and forehead. Normal axillary temperature is 37 degrees, while rectal it is 37.5 degrees. High temperature requires the use of drugs to go down the temperature.

Doctor's advice: high temperature descends first baby removing excess clothing. Check the temperature in the space, which should not be greater than 24 - 25 degrees. The risk of dehydration, should give the baby as much water and tea, which should not be hot, but room temperature. It is important that some time during the day to wash the baby with lukewarm water, with a duration of 10 minutes. If temperature decreases should not be given medications as paracetamol (eferalgan) or ibuprofen (brufen) from 6 to 8 hours.

What do you do before you give the baby medicine

Always read the instruction before you give the baby medicine. Also, check the expiration date and the way of using the drug. With the baby sure is that you give the medicine with the help of the syringe, because it just will not go wrong dosage - half lugeze is 2.5 milliliters.

Before you throw them in the eye point, pass through the eye of a baby with a physiological solution from the internal nose. Then you can take the points. Be careful at the time of expiry of the points.

A scientist has found scientific evidence of the existence of the soul

American anesthesiologist Dr. Stuart Hameroff of the University of Arizona confessed on scientific theory, which confirms the existence of the hereafter and immortal soul.

According to his words when a person's heart stops beating information stored in the brain does not die, but continues to spread throughout the universe.

When doctors turn man to be the quantum information that has been Cosmos back into the body. Precisely due to this man remembers this unusual experience.

According to scientists, this theory explains survivors recall clinical death "white light" or "tunnel" in which they have been.

Curiosity finds no trace of methane on Mars

NASA spacecraft on Mars, Curiosity has not discovered this in its first analysis of methane in the atmosphere of Mars; note that you will undoubtedly upsetting those who hope to find life on the Red Planet.

Vital organisms produce more than 90% of the methane found in the Earth's atmosphere, so scientists are very interested if we could find a little of this gas in the air of Mars. However Curiosity has come empty-handed in the first atmospheric measurements made.

"Summary is that we have not so far discern no sign of methane." - Chris Webster, Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California Pesadena told reporters.

Scientists have detected methane in the Martian atmosphere before, using a variety of instruments on the ground and in space. But the measured gas concentrations were low; ranging from 10 to 50 parts per billion.

According to scientists the lack of detection of methane by Curiosity does not mean that previous observations are wrong. In fact, methane concentrations can vary from region to region and also vary at different times.

"At this time we do not have a positive discovery of methane on Mars." Sushil Atreya said Michigan University.

"But that may change over time and depends on how it is produced methane on Mars and how he destroyed."

Possible non-biological sources of methane include comets blow, interplanetary dust particle degradation by ultraviolet rays and water-rock interaction. And gas can be destroyed by photochemical reactions in the atmosphere or absorbed by the surface of Mars.

Scientists think that the disappearance of methane on Mars are effective to remove the gas from the atmosphere in every few hundred years. This means that any detected methane in the Martian air has been generated in recent times.

New atmospheric measurements, which are mostly based on some studies Curiosity to a place called Rocknest, may also help scientists better understand how the Red Planet could have lost much of its original atmosphere. Mars air is actually only 1% thick as that of the Earth.

In measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide, stood an increase of 5% in heavy isotopes of carbon, compared to the isotopic composition was thought to have been at the time when Mars was formed.

Curiosity landed on Mars on August 5th to begin a two-year mission for the purpose of determining whether the Red Planet could have ever supported microbial life. Scientists eagerly await the data brings Curiosity.

"Let me emphasize that these are the first measurements." Said Michael Meyer, Curiosity and managerial program scientist of NASA's Mars exploration program.

"We are waiting for other discoveries."

Natural cure against white patches on the skin

Recently you may have noticed very often people who have their skin white markings.

 

This problem mostly have noticed during the summer holidays, where people dress up more easily, and can be easily observed. White spots created in map form mainly on the back, shoulders, neck or face created as a result of the lack of vitamins and proteins.

When Marco Polo heard of in China, he doubted the evil spirits. When residents of Copiapo, in Chile i heard they came out of a sand hill, they blamed the tip El Bramador. Scientists nowadays call "singing sands" but yet they refer to the same thing: when sand particles rreshkasin the slopet of several types of sand dunes, they produce a deep sound that is audible many miles away.
