LONDON, ENGLAND, April 20, 2011 (Press-News.org) easyJet Holidays, has announced the launch of the 'How Flexible Are You?' competition on its holiday offering's blog.
This easyJet Holidays alliance which was established following a collaboration between easyJet and the Lowcosttravelgroup, provides customers with the choice and flexibility to enable them to tailor their holidays and city breaks to travel when they want, to wherever they want, for as long as they want. In light of this, and the recent heroics from the contortionist Rubber Richie, who managed to squeeze himself into a suitcase in London, the team has been wondering; just how flexible is the average person?
The new competition asks entrants to get creative and send in a funny flexible video or photo. For the most impressive entry the easyJet Holidays team is offering an Ibiza holiday for two in Ibiza for seven nights. The winner will then be announced on the 1st of May 2011 by a very special guest judge.
easyJet is also encouraging those looking for a little inspiration to head on over to the easyJet Holidays blog and take a look at Rubber Ritchie's bendy antics or check out the other entries on the easyJet Holidays You Tube Channel.
Those wanting to enter the competition can share their images or videos on the 'How Flexible Are You' Facebook page via twitter at easyJet Holidays Twitter or simply email them and the easyJet Holidays team will upload them.
easyJet holidays is available on all major search engines and price comparison sites, and through an affiliate network of over 3,000 web sites such as voucher code, cash back and travel editorial sites. The website is backed by a state of the art call centre network of highly qualified sales and customer service staff who will provide help to customers if they prefer to arrange their holidays by phone.

MU researchers find missing link in plant defense against fungal disease
2011-04-20
Botrytis bunch rot, a disease caused by the fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea, can devastate grape vineyards. Yet other plants can repel the invader and protect themselves by mounting a form of chemical warfare against the fungi through the production of antimicrobial substances, called phytoalexins.
Scientists at the University of Missouri report on a discovery in a key component in the signaling pathway that regulates the production of phytoalexins to kill the disease-causing fungus Botrytis cinerea.
"When the mustard plant Arabidopsis detects the fungus Botrytis ...
Spring-cleaning the mind?
2011-04-20
Montreal April 19, 2011 – Lapses in memory occur more frequently with age, yet the reasons for this increasing forgetfulness have not always been clear. According to new research from Concordia University, older individuals have reduced learning and memory because their minds tend to be cluttered with irrelevant information when performing tasks. Published in The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, these findings offer new insights into why ageing is associated with a decline in memory and may lead to practical solutions.
"The first step of our study was to ...

'3-D towers' of information double data storage areal density
2011-04-20
College Park, MD (April 19, 2011) -- Using well-known patterned media, a team of researchers in France has figured out a way to double the areal density of information by essentially cutting the magnetic media into small pieces and building a "3D tower" out of it.
This greatly enhances the amount of data that can be stored in a magnetic storage device and provides a method to reach beyond a wall of physical limits that the currently used technology is hitting. The team presents their findings in the American Institute of Physics' Journal of Applied Physics.

Rational, emotional reasons guide genetic-testing choices
2011-04-20
Consumers decide whether to use mail-in genetic tests based on both rational and emotional reasons, a finding that adds to a growing body of health-care behavior research on information seeking and avoidance, according to researchers at the University of California, Riverside.
In a study of what motivates or discourages consumers from participating in direct-to-consumer (DTC) genetic testing, UC Riverside psychologists found that potential users of the tests were influenced by perceived benefits and barriers to testing, and anticipated regret over testing versus not testing.
