Cheap & Efficient way to stop mosquitoes

Do you know that there is a very simple and very economical way to destroy the mosquitoe's eggs and not let them hatch into larvae.

Just put in few 1 cent copper coins into the  tanks/containers then it will solve all your problems.

Even if you have fish inside the tanks/containers then there should be no problem.

According from Japanese Research Scientists, they found the mosquitoes eggs will be destroyed by a kind of mineral discharge from the copper.

Try it by yourself and even the small snails also will not visit the containers (with copper coins) collected with stagnant water.

Your will observe the water collected in the containers will be very clean and clear.

BELIEVE OR NOT, try it and you will see the miracle.

Fastest and Efficient Detecting Cancer Cells.

BRITISH scientists have found a new and faster way of studying a crucial class of cancer cells, called cancer stem cell, which they say should speed up work on developing drugs against them.

The researchers from Oxford University developed a way of obtaining samples rich in cancer stem cells from bowel cancer cell lines and keeping them in a lab - a method which allows cells to be repeatedly tested against possible drug treatments.

Working with cell lines is a much more convenient way to study these cells than using samples taken from human patients or using animal models

We can now evaluate anti-cancer drugs better to see whether they attack cancer stem cells. If you don't attack these cells, the cancer can grow out again.

Allowing for repeatable, high-speed screens of drugs, as well as basic studies on the nature of cancer stem cells and their role in producing tumours. 'In the long term, it should allow but with the new technique, work on stem cells could be far quicker and more productive, the development of more useful, safe and specific drugs targeting cancer stem cells,' said Trevor Yeung of the university's Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, who also worked on the study.

Childhood cancer DNA project

WASHINGTON - RESEARCHERS announced a new project call childhood cancer DNA project. This project try to discover genes in childhood tumors previously unknown causes of cancer.

The research is to help tailor treatments for children to spare them radiation and chemotherapy. Our belief and our expectation is that pediatric cancer is going to have different genetic alterations than adult cancers,' Dr Shapiro said dean of Washington University School of Medicine.

The research is collaboration between St Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis and Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis.

Dr Shapiro said the team will be able to see how different children fared on different treatments, and look for changes in DNA that might be used to explain these differences. That, in turn, may lead to genetic tests that can guide doctors to the best treatments for their young patients, and may in the longer run help in developing better treatments for childhood cancer.

The study, projected to cost US$65 million (S$91 million) over three years, will start with 600 childhood cancer patients. 'We are on the threshold of a revolution in our understanding of the origins of cancer,' Dr William Evans, St Jude director and chief executive officer, said in a statement. 'For the first time in history, we have the tools to identify all of the genetic abnormalities that turn a white blood cell into a leukemia cell or a brain cell into a brain tumor.'

Sugar Alternative.

Since the sugar price increase on Jan 1 will likely have a negligible impact on the earnings of food and beverage.

 Stevia is a natural sweetener that does not contain any calories.

Besides being a natural sweetner, stevia is said to reduce blood sugar levels, ease urine flow, kill bacteria, cure skin problems and also control weight.

Stevia is a better alternative when compared to sugar and In fact, this remarkable noncaloric herb, has been used as a sweetener and flavor enhancer for centuries. This is evidenced by country have long been developed using materials extracted from Stevia sweeteners, such as Canada, Europe, India and South America.

The government's move to promote industry in Stevia but government agency and industry should be prudent and sincere in this noble effort.

Government’s need to do comprehensive research as climatic factors play an important role. The research includes planting in Malaysia and other South-East Asian countries. We are still conducting tests and research scientifically.

Discovery

 

A lack of sleep among youngsters may trigger depression and suicidal thoughts, according to the study by the Columbia University Medical Center.

Going to bed early is key to getting enough sleep and helping adolescents feel on top of the world, a new study reported.

Inadequate sleep is a risk factor for depression, working with other  risk and protective factors through multiple possible causal pathways to the development of this mood disorder.

Adequate quality sleep could therefore be a preventative measure against depression and a treatment for depression.

 

Less sleep will cause FAT.

 

Enough sleep at night can prevent diabetes up to five times. Said a professor at the University of Buffalo, New York, Lisa Rafalson, the study proves there is a clear linkage between the disease and lack of sleep, especially among those who have aged.

A study involving adult 18.000 issued last month by the Organization of Obesity Research North America found that those who enjoy sleeping about four hours yesterday, is 73 percent easier for obese or overweight than those who slept seven to nine hours long.
Latest study released today also found similar results when the research involves over 1.024 volunteers. 

Of the total, 14.9 percent of respondents who sleep only five hours recorded ghrelin hormone that increases appetite.
Those who sleep less also recorded a decrease leptin hormone that causes a person to feel satiated.
In the study, researchers found that the optimum level for sleep control weight is the average of 7.7 hours.
"Actions to reduce time to sleep just makes increased appetite and excessive eating."
