... LII Tip of the Week: Forthcoming New Site Imminent
Believe it or not, September, 2005 is the month LII will finally, realio-trulio, actually-factually, move to its brand-new site. We stayed in beta for a long time in order to address problems that cropped up during the development activities. We have no wiggle room any more--for technical reasons, we must move to the new site by September 30--but we are also, finally, almost done. We don't know just what the magic day will be, but we know it will be in September. Stay tuned! Cholesterol-lowering Drugs And The Risk Of Hemorrhagic Stroke
People taking cholesterol-lowering drugs such as atorvastatin after a stroke may be at an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke, or bleeding in the brain, a risk not found in patients taking statins who have never had a stroke. Collapse Of p53 Into Clumps Might Be Linked To Cancer, According To St
The disruption of a molecular bridge that holds together the molecule p53 tends to destabilize this protein, allowing it to form potentially disease-causing aggregates, or "clumps,"according to a study by investigators at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Blogger Ideology: Enough Already
We hear it all the time -- new media is not like old media. We agree -- it's not, but one thing hasn't changed, and that's the profit motive. In Beyond the Beyond. Three-quarters Of Adults WIll Be Overweight In 15-20 Years, Report Pre
The problem of obesity will take at least 30 years to reverse, according to a recent government report on tackling obesity in the UK over the next 40 years. If current trends continue, at least half the population will be obese by 2032. In less than 15 years, 86 per cent of men will be overweight, and 70 per cent of women will reach the same level of obesity in 20 years time. Everything I Need to Know About (Real) Robots I Learned From Transform
Transformers don’t care about people, period. That's what I learned growing up in the 1980s, religiously watching a race of robot Titans from outer space wage a secret war on Earth. Mini Helicopter Thinks For Itself -- On The Fly -- To React To Dangero
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are one step closer to someday matching -- and possibly surpassing -- their human-piloted counterparts, thanks to the completion of a project successfully tested by Georgia Tech and sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. MedlinePlus: Phobias
Collection of links to material about phobias, which are known as anxiety disorders in extreme cases. Topics include treatments and coping, specific conditions (such as social phobia), related issues (such as panic disorders and agoraphobia), and fears and phobias in children and teens. From the National Library of Medicine (NLM) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Frequent Yeast Infections May Be Linked To Certain Vaginal Bacteria Ec
The microbial ecosystem of the human vagina varies greatly among women. Those differences can lead to conditions that, if not diagnosed and treated correctly, may leave some women susceptible to a range of infections, including sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV. The research team compared the type of vaginal bacteria in a representative group of Caucasian and black women in North America. Three major findings emerged from the study: there are at least eight kinds of normal vaginal bacterial communities, each community is different, and, among the eight kinds of communities, some bacterial communities are unique to one or the other racial group. Protein 'Bar Code' In Spinal Fluid Could Lead To First Diagnostic Test
Scientists collaborating at Cornell University in Ithaca and Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City have identified a panel of 23 protein biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid that acts as a neurochemical "fingerprint,"which doctors might use someday to identify patients living with Alzheimer's disease. The research will be published in the December online edition of the journal Annals of Neurology.
