LateRooms.com - Liverpool Showcases Like You've Never Been Away

Photographer Paul Trevor has revisited a 1975 collection of images for a new exhibition in Liverpool.

2011-04-24

LIVERPOOL, April 24, 2011 (Press-News.org) Like You've Never Been Away is a heart-warming project for which a photographer has tracked down the people who appeared in his photographs of Granby and Everton in 1975.

Paul Trevor was sent to the areas to record inner city deprivation and produced a collection of images showing the defiant nature with which the communities faced their problems.

In a statement, he described how he found everyone to be full of humour and energy at the time and decided to revisit the project and update the public on what the participants had done with themselves after he left.

Mr Trevor added: "I revisited Liverpool this summer in a bid to find out what happened to the people I met back in the 1970s. It has been fascinating to see what those youngsters did with their lives and where they ended up."

Like You've Never Been Away will be on show at the Walker Art Gallery from May 13th to September 25th 2011.

The museum is free to enter and is open from 10:00 to 17:00 BST daily.

Art enthusiasts can find a huge selection of Liverpool hotels on LateRooms.com, including the Adelphi Hotel Liverpool, which is within walking distance of the Walker Art Gallery.

Columbia engineering study links ozone hole to climate change all the way to the equator

2011-04-24

In a study to be published in the April 21st issue of Science magazine, researchers at Columbia University's School of Engineering and Applied Science report their findings that the ozone hole, which is located over the South Pole, has affected the entire circulation of the Southern Hemisphere all the way to the equator. While previous work has shown that the ozone hole is changing the atmospheric flow in the high latitudes, the Columbia Engineering paper, "Impact of Polar Ozone Depletion on Subtropical Precipitation," demonstrates that the ozone hole is able to influence ...

Giant tortoises show rewilding can work

2011-04-24

'Rewilding with taxon substitutes', the intentional introduction of exotic species to fulfil key functions in ecosystems following the loss of recently extinct species, is highly controversial, partly due to a lack of rigorous scientific studies. In a paper published today in Current Biology, Christine Griffiths of Bristol's School of Biological Sciences and colleagues present the first empirical evidence that rewilding can work. Exotic giant Aldabra tortoises, Aldabrachelys gigantea, were introduced to Ile aux Aigrettes, a 25-hectare island off Mauritius, in 2000 to ...

Hotels-Paris.co.uk - Visit Facteurs Factices in Paris for Peculiar Post Boxes

2011-04-24

An unusual exhibition of artwork from a tiny village in Loiret is being displayed at the Musee de la Poste in Paris. Facteurs Factices shows off the many and varied post boxes in Saint-Martin-d'Abbat, which has become something of a traveller's curiosity due to the elaborate designs of the items. One of them is made to look like a petrol pump, while another celebrates breakfast-time. According to the organisers of the display, there are only 1,600 residents in the village, yet there are 220 unique post boxes. Visitors to the Musee de la Poste can see pictures ...

In time for spring, biologist illuminates how seedlings regulate growth

2011-04-24

PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — With seedlings and shoots still poking their leafy tops out of the soil, it's hard to read the newly published research of Brown University biologist Alison DeLong without musing that it provides a deeper understanding of what puts the spring in spring. DeLong's paper, published in advance online April 21 in PLoS Genetics, reveals fertile new insights into the intricate network of proteins that controls plant growth and development, particularly at the seedling stage. But the research also runs deeper than the roots of any of the ...

Researchers identify genes causing antimalarial drug resistance

2011-04-24

Boston, MA -- Using a pair of powerful genome-search techniques, researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH), Harvard University, and the Broad Institute have identified several genes that may be implicated in the malaria parasite's notorious ability to rapidly evade drug treatments. Further testing revealed that one of the genes, when inserted into drug-sensitive parasites, rendered them less vulnerable to three antimalarial drugs. The successful experiments suggest that the genomic methods are useful tools for probing the genetic mechanisms underlying ...

Caltech: Learning to tolerate our microbial self

2011-04-24

PASADENA, Calif.—The human gut is filled with 100 trillion symbiotic bacteria—ten times more microbial cells than our own cells—representing close to one thousand different species. "And yet, if you were to eat a piece of chicken with just a few Salmonella, your immune system would mount a potent inflammatory response," says Sarkis K. Mazmanian, assistant professor of biology at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Salmonella and its pathogenic bacterial kin don't look that much different from the legion of bacteria in our gut that we blissfully ignore, ...

Researchers find fat turns into soap in sewers, contributes to overflows

2011-04-24

Researchers from North Carolina State University have discovered how fat, oil and grease (FOG) can create hardened deposits in sewer lines: it turns into soap! The hardened deposits, which can look like stalactites, contribute to sewer overflows. "We found that FOG deposits in sewage collection systems are created by chemical reactions that turn the fatty acids from FOG into, basically, a huge lump of soap," says Dr. Joel Ducoste, a professor of civil, construction and environmental engineering at NC State and co-author of a paper describing the research. Collection systems ...

EPO doping helps combat cerebral malaria

2011-04-24

Almost 3.3 billion people, half of the world's population, risk being infected with malaria. Despite having effective means against malaria, the WHO reports 250 million cases of malaria each year and more than 700,000 related deaths. Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have now discovered that EPO, the doping drug known from professional cycling, can significantly reduce cerebral malaria related deaths. When more than 700,000 people die from malaria each year it is due to two grave complications, which the malaria parasites manage to cause before they are eliminated ...
