Author : techyounme
Increasing competition in the pharmaceutical industry to develop new drugs, increasing demand for genetically modified crops and animals, and dropping prices of genomic procedures are some of the major growth drivers for the market. Synthetic biology uses the concepts of genomics as an enabling technology to study the gene sequences of organisms and plants and further research initiatives are taken to invent synthetic cells and DNAs with novel applications. Emergence of such nascent research will help the market grow in the future. The study of the genomes of organisms is referred to as genomics....

Mt. Diablo is a great place to hike, but it's a good idea to keep an eye on the trail ahead of you, as you will encounter the occasional rattlesnake if you hike enough. Usually they'll be sunning themselves along the trail. I hadn't realized until recently that Mt. Diablo's rattlesnakes are not the famous diamondback rattlesnakes. They're a (usually) smaller rattlesnake called variously Pacific rattlesnake, North Pacific rattlesnake, or Northern Pacific rattlesnake. Fortunately, they tend to be quite shy, not aggressive. I literally stepped over one recently and all he...

Let me represent you my favorite toy - The Kettlebell. Some of you may know what it is, some might be heard it for the very first time. Well, this is a device made for fitness work or crossfit. Crossfit is the sport that I train both with bodybuilding. Well, that little thing weights 12 kg and it's made of iron. I bought it last year when I found out I was pregnant. I couldn't go on the gym because I was afraid of the hygiene but I trained with that at home every day. I can say that for my whole pregnancy I raised only 12 kilos. May be the training helped me - I can't say for sure....

Through the years I have had at various times vivid dreams and or deep premonitons that involved a family member, neighbor or friend. Each time I told the person who I had the dream of feeling it was about or we needed to be concerned about. Twice someone listened and they did not have the bad thing happen that could have. One person was my grandmother she listened and she did not go outside on a very cold icy day and break her hip. She answered her phone and listened to my warning and later that day my uncle came to see her and stepped out of his car and fell on his butt. He was not hurt mostly...

The sounds surrounding Aldo Leopold's 1940 era cabin have changed. The constant noise from the nearby freeway and other modern sounds drowns out the songs of the area's bird. Some of the birds that lived there 70 years ago relocated to escape the encroaching human presence. Stan Temple, who is a senior fellow of the Aldo Leopold Foundation, and Christopher Bocast, an acoustic ecologist, teamed up to recreate the sounds that the famous naturalist heard when he sat outside his cabin. From Leopold's detailed notes, they knew the exact time that each bird sang, as well as where the...

Scientists at Northumbria University, led by Dr Michael Smith, set out to discover whether the same affect would occur in a real world setting. The researchers studied 24 healthy male skydivers -- 11 novices carrying out their first soloskydive, and 13 experienced skydivers who had completed at least 30 jumps -- asking them to self-report their level of anxiety and also taking saliva samples to measure levels of the stress hormone cortisol before and after the jump. They found that, although novice skydivers reported feeling more anxious prior to the jump than experienced skydivers, both sets of...

Hops, like +Cannabis (marijuana), come from the hemp family Cannabaceae. Hops are flowers from a vine. Even though hops and marijuana are part of the same +Family, hops do not cause the same psychoactive effects as +Marijuana. The effects of fermentation, and not the hops contribute to the effects beer has on the body. The hops in alcohol, while not contributing to a high or drunkenness, still play an important role. The acidity of the hops contribute to the bitter nature of beer as well as contributing oils that impacts how the beer tastes and smells. Even more importantly, hops prevent...

A doctor who worked for the private company which assesses people for disability benefits says its methods are "unfair". Greg Wood, a former Royal Navy doctor, resigned from Atos earlier this month, after working as an assessor for two-and-a-half years. He told the BBC the system was "skewed against the claimant". But Atos Healthcare says it submits "clinically justified reports" and completely rejects Dr Wood's claims. Atos, which has been criticised in the past by disability campaigners and MPs, carries out work capability assessments (WCAs) on behalf of...

Author : dollarzbro
The decomposers are - in the food web - living beings directly involved in the decomposition of organic matter dead ( dead organic matter ) or droppings or excreta of living beings. They play an important, necessary role in the recycling of elements ( minerals , trace elements ...) that make up the organic matter. Some of them contribute to large permanent detoxification of the environment, recycling (decomposition) of toxic organic compounds ( toxins natural) or disruptive to the ecosystem (some pheromones , hormones and endocrine disruptors , for example) contained in detritus and sediment...

Alexander Graham Bell is often called the father of the telephone. He was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, moved to Canada in 1870, and later to the USA. He became an expert on the science of speech and his first inventions helped deaf people to hear sounds. During his research, Bell developed a method of transmitting voice messages along a wire. In 1876 he patented the device, which he called the harmonic telegraph. This was the first telephone.

Today we know more than five species of predatory plants. None of them is of course the giant lurking in the big game. The victims tend to be mainly insects, spiders, snails and small aquatic crustaceans. Carnivorous plants grow in places where the soil is poor in nutrients - on the moors and volcanic ash. Flowering plants are green leaves, and so the air charge of carbon dioxide and reprocess it into their bodies into sugars. They lack, however, are easily absorbed nitrogen compounds, which other plants get from the soil. Nitrogen - element needed to build proteins - must therefore derive from...

Listening to upbeat, cheery music can indeed make people happier , scientists say. Researchers from the University of Missouri discovered that an individual can successfully try to be happier, especially when cheery music aids the process. "Our work provides support for what many people already do — listen to music to improve their moods," said lead author Yuna Ferguson , who performed the study while she was an MU doctoral student in psychological science. "Although pursuing personal happiness may be thought of as a self-centred venture, research suggests that happiness relates...

If you're a left-brain thinker , chances are you use your right hand to hold your cell phone up to your right ear, a new study has found. The study from Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit shows a strong correlation between brain dominance and the ear used to listen to a cell phone. More than 70% of participants held their cell phone up to the ear on the same side as their dominant hand, the study found. Left-brain dominant people - who account for about 95 percent of the population and have their speech and language center located on the left side of the brain - are more likely to use their right...

Red Bellied...
Author : waterlily
As I said in an earlier post, yesterday I was out at the Ojibway Nature Center. One of the first birds, I spotted was a Red Bellied Woodpecker. Now I really am confused as to why they are called "Red Bellied" woodpeckers because their bellies aren't red at all....Instead their heads are red. The male woodpecker has a completely red head from beak to the back while the female has a red spot above the beak and a bit more red on the top of her head. This was the first time I had seen a woodpecker up close and was quite intrigued.
