Dash's of Old Town received the Best of Alexandria Award in back to back years, 2012 and 2013, in the Men's Clothing category.

Dash's of Old Town was established in 2005 in response to the trends in the high-end clothing market - clothiers and department stores were relying on labels to sell stock and taking advantage of an uninformed public. In addition, many sales associates were uninformed about the very garments they were selling. As a result, the details and finer points that make a wardrobe truly stunning were overlooked; people were paying more, but dressing worse. Dash's was created to change all this.

Travel around Europe is set to become less expensive and easier to plan with the integration of ridesharing options into Rome2rio's popular journey planning site, rome2rio.com. "Ridesharing is typically a much more affordable choice than air and rail services, and we've made it easy to compare the cost of a rideshare trip to those more traditional options in our search results," said Rod Cuthbert, Rome2rio CEO. "Take for example a trip from Frankfurt to Munich, Germany. Deutsche Bahn's Inter-City Express train service is an obvious first choice, but at an average ...

Certain genetic variants may put bladder cancer patients at increased risk of recurrence

2014-03-26

In the Western world, bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men and the eighth most common in women, with many patients experiencing recurrence after treatment. A new study published in BJU International indicates that inheriting certain DNA sequences can affect a patient's prognosis. The findings may help physicians identify sub-groups of bladder cancer patients who should receive intensive treatment and monitoring. Nearly half of patients diagnosed with bladder cancer experience tumor recurrences, but it is difficult to predict which patients are at risk. ...

Study yields 'Genghis Khan' of brown bears, and brown and polar bear evolution

2014-03-26

Male bears are seemingly always on the prowl, roaming much greater distances than females, particularly for mating. For bear evolution, studying the paternally inherited Y chromosome is therefore a rich source to trace both the geographic dispersal and genetic differences between bear species. This new study is particularly important, because a large part of our current knowledge about range-wide population structuring in mammals relies on data from maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). More extensive male than female movement in bears and many other mammals ...

Pessimism of early global policy architects stunted developing nations' economies: Harvard study

2014-03-26

Influential economic ideas first advanced in 1911 — stressing innovation and entrepreneurialism as the fundamental generators of growth and wealth — were deemed inappropriate for developing countries, stunting progress in many parts of the world throughout the 20th century, says a distinguished Harvard academic. In a newly-published paper, Calestous Juma of the Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Centre for Science and International Affairs calls on emerging economy countries and development agencies to revisit and adopt ideas rejected in the 1950s by "pessimistic" architects ...

Knowing true age of your heart key to curbing lifetime heart disease risk

2014-03-26

The Joint British Societies' consensus recommendations for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (JBS3), which have been drawn up by *11 UK professional societies and charitable organisations, are based on the latest available scientific evidence. They emphasise the importance of putting patients in the driving seat and starting preventive action early on, using a new method of risk assessment - the JBS3 risk calculator. Heart disease deaths have almost halved over the past 40-50 years, particularly in high income countries, thanks largely to the identification of ...

Doctors raise blood pressure in patients

Doctors routinely record blood pressure levels that are significantly higher than levels recorded by nurses, the first thorough analysis of scientific data has revealed. A systematic review led by the University of Exeter Medical School, and supported by the National Institute for Health Research Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care in the South West Peninsula (NIHR PenCLAHRC), has discovered that recordings taken by doctors are significantly higher (by 7/4mmHg) than when the same patients are tested by nurses. Dr Christopher Clark, of the ...

Million suns shed light on fossilized plant

2014-03-26

Scientists have used one of the brightest lights in the Universe to expose the biochemical structure of a 50 million-year-old fossil plant to stunning visual effect. The team of palaeontologists, geochemists and physicists investigated the chemistry of exceptionally preserved fossil leaves from the Eocene-aged 'Green River Formation' of the western United States by bombarding the fossils with X-rays brighter than a million suns produced by synchrotron particle accelerators. Researchers from Britain's University of Manchester and Diamond Light Source and the Stanford ...
