ST. TROPEZ, FRANCE, June 03, 2011 (Press-News.org) As the Mediterranean prepares for the summer season the yacht brokerage market is looking fairly healthy in contrast to this quarter in recent years. Supporting this resurgence are the annual boat shows that are beginning to see increased interest and enquiries through their continued efforts.
Although all areas of the business are showing equal improvements this cannot be said to be spread across Fraser Yachts' entire network worldwide however with some regions recovering quicker than others it would seem.
Most recently interest appears to be concentrated in the European and Russian markets. However, thanks to the Hainan, Mumbai, Singapore and Abu Dhabi boat shows, India and the Middle East are seeing a marked increase in enquiries in super yacht sales.
Unfortunately boat shows tend to attract more exhibitors than potential buyers and this is none so more apparent than in the US. Both Palm Beach and San Diego both struggled to attract the numbers in recent years emphasising just how slow the US market appears to be recovering compared to its European counterpart.
However there does appear to be an upturn in shipyard commissions. With almost all the shipyards working well below capacity at present signs are finally being seen of recovery with an increase in enquiries and new orders being signed for luxury yachts.

Cognitive impairment seen in preschool children with epilepsy
2011-06-03
A recent study has shown that cognitive impairment is evident early on in preschool children with epilepsy, consistent with results of similar studies in older children. Age of onset of first seizure is a significant predictor of cognitive impairment according to this study—the first to evaluate cognitive impairment in children age three to six. The report is available in Epilepsia, a journal published by Wiley-Blackwell on behalf of the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE).
Epilepsy is characterized by recurrent seizures that range from mild staring spells to ...
The blame game in work-family conflict
2011-06-03
INDIANAPOLIS – When the demands of work and family conflict, is the job blamed, is the family role blamed or is blame placed on both? And what are the consequences?
A new study by Elizabeth M. Poposki, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychology in the School of Science at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, is the first to explore day-to-day experiences in attributing this type of blame. The work examines individual incidents of work-family conflict and tracks how blame for this conflict is attributed.
Only three percent of those surveyed blamed both work ...
Farmer networks hold key to agricultural innovation in developing countries, Stanford study finds
2011-06-03
New technologies can improve agricultural sustainability in developing countries, but only with the engagement of local farmers and the social and economic networks they depend on, say Stanford University researchers. Their findings are published in the May 23 online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
"Most people tend to think that technology information flows to farmers through a direct pipeline from scientists, but that isn't true," said lead author Ellen McCullough, a former research fellow at Stanford's Program on Food Security ...
Cause and potential treatment found for cancer drug's kidney toxicity
2011-06-03
AUGUSTA, Ga. – Scientists may have a way to make the powerful cancer drug cisplatin less toxic to the kidneys and more effective against some cancers.
The chemotherapeutic agent used in combination with other drugs for a variety of cancers, results in kidney damage or failure in about 30 percent of users, although the mechanism has been unclear. The most physicians can do today to protect the kidneys is advise patients to drink more water.
The relatively simple, highly reactive compound tends to accumulate in the kidneys, said Dr. Navjotsingh Pabla, postdoctoral fellow ...
Iron key to brain tumor drug delivery
2011-06-03
Brain cancer therapy may be more effective if the expression of an iron-storing protein is decreased to enhance the action of therapeutic drugs on brain cancer cells, according to Penn State College of Medicine researchers.
Malignant glioblastoma multiforme is a deadly brain tumor for which no long-term effective cure exists. Because drugs in the blood do not pass from the blood vessels to the brain, effective amounts of chemotherapy drugs do not reach the tumor. Increasing dosages damage normal brain tissue and cause significant neurological damage. These dosages also ...
Children eat more vegetables when allowed to choose
2011-06-03
This release is available in French and Spanish.
A gesture as simple as allowing children to freely choose the vegetables they want to eat helps to increase the consumption of these foods in children, as University of Granada has found. Moreover, his work suggests that the bitter taste of calcium, present in vegetables such as spinach, collard greens, cabbage, onions, chard or broccoli, can be a factor negatively influencing children's consumption of vegetables.
To carry out this experimental study, the authors analyzed the main factors determining vegetable consumption ...
Building a better dam map
2011-06-03
Humans have been building reservoirs and dams for thousands of years. Over the past few decades, their construction has spiked as our need to harness water – critical in flood control, irrigation, recreation, navigation and the creation of hydroelectric power – has grown. And while dams and reservoirs have important benefits, they can also be disruptive and costly to both humans and the environment.
A close assessment of critical environmental and social tradeoffs associated with dams and reservoirs within the global river network has been impossible because the data ...
New type of MRSA in hospitalized patients probably of animal origin
2011-06-03
WASHINGTON, DC -- June 2, 2011 -- A distinctly new type of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) that is not detected by traditional genetic screening methods has been discovered in patients in Irish hospitals according to research to be published in the journal Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy. These findings provide significant insights into how new MRSA strains emerge and highlight the potential for the transmission of infectious agents from animals to humans.
MRSA is a significant cause of hospital- and community-acquired infection worldwide. MRSA ...

With feedlot manure, it pays to be precise
2011-06-03
This release is available in Spanish.
The same precision farming techniques that work with crops can work with manure management on cattle feedlots, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) scientists.
Agricultural engineers Roger Eigenberg and Bryan Woodbury and their colleagues with USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS) in Clay Center, Neb., map the distribution of manure on the surface of feedlots and the flow of liquid manure in rain runoff.
This research could lead to both precision harvesting of manure and also precision application of manure ...
