Enhancing Child Imagination With Playing Games

LONDON - A new study from the University of Michigan shows, games or can actually increase a child's imagination is much higher.

New research aims to measure the level of creativity of children in assessing the effects of gaming associated with child development.

The study involved 500 children aged 12 years. The results found by researchers shows the more often children playing video games, then the level of their creativity in doing tasks, such as drawing and writing stories would be far better than those who rarely play video games.

Development of the creativity of children is not completely influenced by yag games played, but influenced by the use of technology has to offer into the phone, Internet or computer. Similarly, as quoted by the Daily Mail, Sunday (06/11/2011).

Linda Jackson as the lead researcher said the study became the first evidence to establish the relationship between the use of technology and creativity. In the future these results may be a game designer motivation in making a video game that has a creative effect.

"After the kids managed to do it, video game developers are expected to play a more optimal design in the development of creativity, but still maintain the entertainment value. Perhaps the latest generation of video games can disguise the difference between education and entertainment," lid Jackson.

NASA Discover Great Cracks in Antarctic Glacier

WASHINGTON - NASA's space agency found a large crack in a glacier in Antarctica. These cracks are found in NASA's mission Operation Ice Bridge which is the largest aerial surveys to monitor the Earth's polar ice caps.

Cracks occurred in the Pine Island glacier in 2001 is still a mountain of ice. Some scientists predict will happen again in the cracks there, but that estimate has not happened.

Since then the discovery, NASA conducted a study in more detail on the results of satellite imagery has been obtained.

NASA is targeting mission lasted for 6 years and produce three-dimensional image of the ice surface, ice sheets and sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic.

"Actually, we are currently witnessing how this could happen, this is something very interesting," said Michael Studdinger, a scientist member of the Ice Bridge Project.

"This part of the natural process, but being here and witnessing the occurrence of cracks is an exciting thing," he added. As preached by Fox News, Friday (04/11/2011).

Smokers Have High-Risk to Become Cocaine Addict

CALIFORNIA - The scientists are from Columbia University claiming smoking is a cause of the beginning of high-risk drugs and become addicts.

They say cigarettes and alcohol is a "gate" that leads a person to use marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy and other illicit drugs. Similarly, as quoted by TG Daily, Sunday (11/06/2011).

An article on "Science Translational Medicine" written by Amir Levine, Denise Kandel, Eric Kandel, and other colleagues at Columbia University Medical Center provides a molecular explanation of the order of "gate" a person who ultimately use the drug.

They claim to have tested their findings in laboratory mice (which has a structure similar to human nerve). The scientists said nicotine is the cause of changes in the brain so helpless when fighting cocaine addiction.

Levels of nicotine and cocaine use were analyzed to determine an initial treatment regime dramatically nicotine response to changes in consumption behaviors associated with cocaine addiction.

Based on the results of research inspired by the new analysis and human epidemiological data shows, cocaine users are generally begins after they smoked and this makes them become high-risk addicts.

"This study raises interesting questions that can now be explored further in animal models," said Danise Kandel, one of the authors.

"The question involves whether alcohol and marijuana can create the stimulation in the brain or into the sequence of 'gateway' drug use, like nicotine? Then, if each sequence using a different mechanism?," He continued.

Please be aware of epidemiological studies and data do not prove causation. Both are just proving the existence of relation to one another.

That is, this study shows cocaine dependence can be attributed to nicotine, but the use of nicotine has not been proven with certainty whether it can make people addicted to cocaine.

"The results of this research aims to create effective prevention programs for public health against the dangers of nicotine, especially for adolescents," concluded the researchers.

Squirrel Sword Tooth Fossil Found in Argentina

BUENOS AIRES - A researcher has managed to find fossils of small toothed animal that has never known before.

This discovery opens up access to instructions on how 93 million years ago, the small mammals live among the dinosaurs.

Mammals that have a name Cronopio dentiacutus have teeth very long, narrow snout and large eye sockets. This indicates the possibility of physical appearance sabertooth squirrel is active during the night for survival among carnivores, carnivorous giant Cretaceous period.

The fossils were found in Patagonia, Rio Negro, Argentina, in a deposition that also contain some type of dinosaur bones in larger sizes. It is quoted from Mercurynews, Friday (11/04/2011).

Looking For Alien With City Light

Massachusetts - How do I find the city on a distant planet? For the sake of finding life on other planets, astronomers have been hunting down a radio signal to a super-short laser wave.

Avi Loeb of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Edwin Turner of Princeton University, suggests a new way to find an alien that is by way of 'looking for' the lights of their cities.

"Finding the alien city of residence is very risky, but does not require additional resources. If successful, this will change the way we view the world," Loeb said, as quoted by Machinelikeus, Friday (11/04/2011).

Like SETI another method, this method relies on the assumption that the aliens are using technology similar to Earth. This is natural because every rational creature that evolved in the light of nearby stars tend to have artificial light that illuminates when the dark (night).

Loeb and Turner take into account the capabilities of today's best telescopes should be used to see the light generated in the Tokyo metropolis-sized distance of the Kuiper Belt (the region occupied by Pluto, Eris, and thousands of smaller ice stars).

While searching in this way, astronomers were able to hone technique and be prepared to apply at some Earth-sized planets found among the stars of our galaxy.

"It is impossible to find the existence of aliens at the end of our solar system, but the principle of science is to find a method to make sure," said Turner.

Extinct Animals, Human Error or Climate Change?

LONDON - Until recently a large number of animal species can no longer be found on earth. The animals that live together, we were already extinct. Who is responsible for the extinction of that?

According to the researchers, the case of extinction of large mammals that lived 10,000 years ago as hairy rhinoceros, mammot hairy, wild horses, deer, karibou, bison and musk ox (a type of cow that nearly extinct) is due to climate change and human behavior.

Based on a study led by Eske Willerslev of the Center for GeoGenetics in Copennhagen University, fluctuating climate prevalent, ranging from climate like today until the climate like in the ice age. When the climate changed, the animals migrate to other locations, seeking a warmer place to grow. When the climate changed, the animals migrate to warmer locations to survive. Similarly, as reported by IB Times, Thursday (11.03.11).

During the ice age population of the six animals are experiencing fluctuations. After the ice age passed, the weather began to return to its original state. Even so, the explosion of human population, habitat space so it has narrowed. Until finally three species of animals-rhino furry, feathered mammot, and wild horses to extinction. Meanwhile, three other species were lucky enough to survive.

During the ice age, the population fluctuated from 6 animals. From the ice age, climate back to what it was before the glacial period, and the animal again looking for a place to survive.

With these findings, Eline Lorenzen, of the University of Copenhagen and the study's first author, said that experts will now be difficult to estimate how the mammalian response to global climate change in the future.

Meanwhile, Beth Shapiro, Shaffer Associate Professor of Biology at Penn State University, noted that the research they do are likely to still be able to help predict what will happen to the animals that are threatened climate change and habitat.

Currently the same invention can be observed through the endangered animals that we have, always climate change and human activities, which are rare species of animals can be threatened with extinction.

According to the World Wide Fund for Nature, animals in the Alps, the mountains of Queensland in Australia, and forest in Costa Rica has a chance to meet his death

With climate change affecting water temperatures around the world, Canada's polar bears rely on sea ice that melts and pussy brush that food intake is reduced because of warming water, is now threatened with extinction.

Climate change also exposes China's giant panda and the orangutan of Indonesia in the same situation.

Asteroid Size of Aircraft Carriers Will Across the Earth

LONDON - asteroid-sized hunk of an aircraft carrier, will pass between Earth and Moon on Tuesday, November 8, forthcoming.

Asteroid known as 2005 YU55 been orbiting around the Sun. But this is the closest position that the Earth moved at the last 200 years and will come closer to Earth since the last 35 years.

This Asteriod dengani previously crossed the short distance in 1976, but largely unnoticed presence of all people, including NASA.

Now astronomers will have another chance of a 'meeting' that more closely about the presence of the asteroid on Tuesday, November 8, which is estimated to be present at 11:30 local time. So that was launched by the Telegraph, Monday (31/10/2011).

This will not be visible to the naked eye but amateur astronomers have a good chance to catch a glimpse of a passing asteroid, provided they have a telescope with a diameter of at least 6 inches.

"We hope to get the images to reveal many details about the asteroid's surface features, shape, dimensions and other physical properties," said party spokesperson for NASA.

2005 YU55 is one of the 874 asteroids close to Earth, and if you want to hit the earth would be strong enough to destroy a city.

Mosquitoes Engineering Results Help Overcome Dengue Fever

LONDON - British scientific team, said genetically modified mosquitoes can effectively cope with dengue fever. Not only dengue fever, but other insects that cause disease.

As reported by the BBC on Monday (31.10.2011), modified male mosquitoes, so that their offspring die before reproducing.
In the Cayman Islands are affected by dengue fever, the researchers found successfully engineered mosquitoes mated with wild females. Dengue fever is caused by a virus that is transmitted through the bite of Aedes aegypti.

In the journal Nature Biotechnology, they said the previous marriage has not been proven in the wild, and can reduce the number of disease-carrying mosquitoes.

World Health Organization (WHO), estimates there are 50 million cases each year. Until now there is no vaccine that can be overcome.

Now the latest study in 2009, a group of scientists from Imperal College London and Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, released the results of research from the Cayman Islands.

In the study, collected some proportion of eggs which then generates gene. The results of such genes is the result of biotech mosquito marriage.

Engineered mosquitoes consisting of 16 percent, and the father of larvae 10 percent. These results, it is not significantly worse.

WHO dengue expert, Dr. Raman Velayudhan said, "This is the first study, which suggests the mosquito population can be suppressed in this way."

Recognizing that genetic engineering is a technology that took the risk and benefits, WHO is currently completing the guide.

The guide is about how mosquitoes engineered to be deployed in developing countries, and is expected to be released later this year.

"We do not advocate engineered mosquitoes, as a 'magic bullet' to solve the dengue problem directly. But it will be a major component of an integrated program," says scientific director Oxitec, Luke Alpey.

"The dieters who fail should not blame themselves for the failure of diet, since eating is a basic instinct of every human being," said Joseph Proietto from the University of Melbourne, Australia, author of the study.

The study also published in the journal New Enland Journal of Medicine this Thursday.

Proiietto and colleagues conducted a study involving 50 obese respondents in Australia, the 10-week diet program. They wanted to see if maybe they could lose 10 percent of body weight each. Unfortunately, there are only 34 people who could lose that much weight.

As quoted by AFP on Thursday (27.10.2011), the Star Observerssay that the possibilities in the outer Solar System has a lot of'dwarf planet' which is similar to Pluto.

In a study published in the journal Nature, found the largest dwarf planet is Eris. The object was discovered by scientists in 2005.The discovery was also a later increase the concentration of research into the Kuiper Belt, a zone filled with icy objects beyondNeptune's orbit.

The discovery of Eris itself is very surprising to astronomers.Initially the object is estimated at Pluto, previously referred to as the smallest planet in the solar system, following its discovery in 1930.

The existence of Eris also have an impact on the estimates; thatthere are probably tens to hundreds of 'other dwarf planetswaiting to be discovered in the Kuiper Belt.

Humans & Chimpanzees Genetically is Different

CALIFORNIA - Since the first scientists to believe that between humans and chimpanzees have the same genetic DNA, but this is disputed by some scientists.

Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology said the fundamental difference that occurs because of the insertion and removal of large pieces of DNA near the gene.

Although the DNA sequence of the human and chimpanzee genes are similar, but there are 'gaps' in the area of genetic genes that can affect how much of these genes can be 'functioning' and 'not working'.

A recent research showed the main cause of genetic gaps due to insertion or deletion by viral (caused by bacteria virus) with a series called retrotransposons that includes half of the genetic differences between the two species.

"The main cause of genetic disparities because of the same retrovirus activity with a series of elements of the exchange," says Biology professor, John McDonald, told TG Daily, Thursday (27/10/2011).

"The element of exchange had previously been regarded as 'Junk DNA' which is only slightly or not have any function. But now the elements are a major reason why we differ from chimps," he continued.

The research team has observed the gap ginetik in both species and found significant differences in gene formation.

"Our findings are generally consistent with the idea that morphological and behavioral differences between humans and simpanses very prominent, revealing more of the gene regulation than differences both gene sequence itself," he concluded.
