LANGHORNE, PA, December 04, 2010 (Press-News.org) As the Philadelphia area plunges into the busy holiday shopping season, Oxford Valley Mall encourages all residents to preserve their comfort and joy by using common sense and 10 safety tips to protect themselves and their valuables while shopping. In fact, it's wise to keep these tips in mind any time throughout the year that large numbers of people gather.

Holiday Shopping Safety Tips

1. When parking, lock your car and take your keys with you.

2. Do not leave valuables in plain view in your car. Lock the valuables and all packages in the trunk.

3. When shopping after dark, ask a friend or family member to accompany you.

4. Park in a well-lit area. Make note of where your car is parked and what mall entrance you use.

5. Have your keys ready in your hand when leaving the shopping center to return to your car.

6. Look inside and under your car before getting inside. Lock your doors promptly.

7. Keep valuables and money in a pocket or small purse with a strap that can be worn across your body.

8. Keep your purse closed and secured. Do not put it down anywhere.

9. Be discreet when paying for merchandise if you are carrying a large sum of cash.

10. Stay alert to what is happening around you. If you notice anything that appears suspicious, report it immediately to mall security or a store employee.

2010-12-04
On July 18, 1975, Terence Mix appeared before an FDA advisory committee to testify about how Clomid (clomiphene citrate) posed a risk of birth defects to the human embryo. He had hoped at the time to draw public attention to the risk and to compel the drug's manufacturer to add a warning to its labeling. Little did he know that it would be another 35 years before his message would reach the general public. But on November 26, 2010, the journal, "Human Reproduction," published over the internet the results of a study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) ...

Scientists discover new mechanism for controlling blood sugar level

Scientists discover new mechanism for controlling blood sugar level
2010-11-30
Medical scientists at the University of Leicester have identified for the first time a new way in which our body controls the levels of sugar in our blood following a meal. They have discovered the part played by a particular protein in helping to maintain correct blood sugar levels. The breakthrough was made in the University of Leicester by a team led by Professor Andrew Tobin, Professor of Cell Biology, who is a Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow. The research is published online ahead of print in the prestigious international scientific journal the Proceedings ...

Developed world at risk of forgetting about AIDS pandemic

2010-11-30
Media coverage on HIV/AIDS has fallen by more than 70% in developed countries over the last 20 years, according to an international team of researchers. While in the early 1990s, an average of 1.5 articles linked to HIV/AIDS could be found in every issue of the main broadsheet newspapers, levels of coverage have dropped to below 0.5 articles per newspaper issue since 2008. Coverage in French and US-based newspapers has decreased particularly dramatically during this period. The findings are part of an ongoing study into sustainability-related media coverage worldwide ...

Tiny RNA shown to cause multiple types of leukemia

2010-11-30
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (November 29, 2010) – Whitehead Institute researchers have shown in mouse models that overexpression of the microRNA 125b (miR-125b) can independently cause leukemia and accelerate the disease's progression. Their results are published in this week's online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). "MicroRNAs are elevated in many cancers, but in humans and mice, can upregulation of a microRNA actually cause the cancer? That's the question," says Whitehead Institute Founding Member Harvey Lodish. "This 22 nucleotide RNA, one ...

Ancient wind held secret of life and death

Ancient wind held secret of life and death
2010-11-30
The mystery of how an abundance of fossils have been marvellously preserved for nearly half a billion years in a remote region of Africa has been solved by a team of geologists from the University of Leicester's Department of Geology. They have established that an ancient wind brought life to the region – and was then instrumental in the preservation of the dead. Sarah Gabbott, Jan Zalasiewicz and colleagues investigated a site near the Table Mountains in South Africa. Their findings are published in the latest issue of the journal Geology. Sarah Gabbott said: "Near ...

Soil microbes define dangerous rates of climate change

2010-11-30
The rate of global warming could lead to a rapid release of carbon from peatlands that would further accelerate global warming. Two recent studies published by the Mathematics Research Institute at the University of Exeter highlight the risk that this 'compost bomb' instability could pose, and calculate the conditions under which it could occur. The same Exeter team is now exploring a possible link between the theories described in the studies and last summer's devastating peatland fires in Russia. The first paper is published in the European Journal of Social Science ...

Air above Dead Sea contains very high levels of oxidized mercury

Air above Dead Sea contains very high levels of oxidized mercury
2010-11-30
Measurements show that the sea's salt has profound effects on the chemistry of the air above its surface. The atmosphere over the Dead Sea, researchers have found, is laden with oxidized mercury. Some of the highest levels of oxidized mercury ever observed outside the polar regions exist there. The results appear in a paper published on-line November 28th in the journal Nature Geoscience. In the research, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), scientist Daniel Obrist and colleagues at the Desert Research Institute in Reno, Nevada, and at Hebrew University ...

How to soften a diamond

How to soften a diamond
2010-11-30
It is the hardest material in the world, and yet it can not only be used to cut other materials, but can be machined itself. Already over 600 years ago first diamonds were cut and the same technique is still used to transform precious stones into exquisite jewelry and later into unrivaled industrial tools. Dr. Lars Pastewka's and Prof. Michael Moseler's team at the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM in Freiburg/Germany can now reveal the secret of why it is that diamonds can be machined. The team published its findings in the current online issue of Nature ...
