The festival is heading to Barrow's Forum venue on July 15th and 16th.

2011-06-21

LAKE DISTRICT, ENGLAND, June 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) Barrow's annual Zircus Plus circus festival will return next month, featuring a double-header of top acts from the UK and France.

On Friday July 15th and Saturday July 16th, Gallic ensemble DeFracto and England's own PanGottic will take the stage at the Cumbrian town's Forum venue.

DeFracto's new production, Circuits Fermes - which translates as Closed Circuits - features two men, numerous white juggling balls and a sizeable wooden board.

All these factors come together to create one entertaining performance, which manages to highlight the skill of the participants and also be extremely funny.

Meanwhile, PanGottic's latest effort Full Twist mixes silent visual comedy with classic and contemporary circus, while telling the story of a quirky couple who fall in love.

Described by the organisers as an "epic tale of pathos and absurdity", audiences can expect to see baby juggling, wine tasting, glass smashing and more.

The show is due to kick off at 19:30 on both nights, with full-price tickets costing GBP6.

People travelling to The Forum via public transport will find the venue is around ten minutes' walk from Barrow railway station.

Circus lovers can use LateRooms.com to choose from a wide array of Lake District accommodation, including the Sharrow Bay Hotel Lake District.

Atmospheric carbon dioxide buildup unlikely to spark abrupt climate change

2011-06-21

There have been instances in Earth history when average temperatures have changed rapidly, as much as 10 degrees Celsius (18 degrees Fahrenheit) over a few decades, and some have speculated the same could happen again as the atmosphere becomes overloaded with carbon dioxide. New research lends support to evidence from numerous recent studies that suggest abrupt climate change appears to be the result of alterations in ocean circulation uniquely associated with ice ages. "There might be other mechanisms by which greenhouse gases may cause an abrupt climate change, ...

Mimicking nature at the nanoscale: Selective transport across a biomimetic nanopore

2011-06-21

Researchers at Delft University of Technology and the University of Basel have established a biomimetic nanopore that provides a unique test and measurement platform for the way that proteins move into a cell's nucleus. In the journal Nature Nanotechnology (June 19 - online), they report an artificial nanopore that is functionalized with key proteins which mimicks the natural nuclear pore. Upon testing the transport of individual proteins through the biomimetic pore, they found that most proteins cannot move through, but some specific ones can indeed pass. This is the hallmark ...

Bodychecking and the risk of injury in youth ice hockey

2011-06-21

The age at which bodychecking is introduced in youth ice hockey does not appear to affect overall risk of injury and concussion, although introducing it at the Pee Wee level (ages 11-12) reduces the risk of injury resulting in more than seven days loss from playing time for Bantam ice hockey players (ages 13-14), found an article in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj101540.pdf. The age to introduce bodychecking in youth hockey leagues is controversial. To determine whether there is a difference in risk of ...

Reducing lifelong disability from sports injuries in children

2011-06-21

To protect children from lifelong injuries in sports, we need a public health approach similar to that mounted against smoking and drunk driving, states an editorial in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj110634.pdf. The annual rate of catastrophic injury in sports or recreational activities is 6.9 per 100 000 participants, and many of the injured are children and youth under age 21. Nearly 500 Ontarians alone are hospitalized each year from hockey injuries and concussions in particular can have long-term ...

Annals of Internal Medicine tip sheet for June 21, 2011

2011-06-21

1. For Hypertension Patients, Single Reading Not Enough to Assess Blood Pressure Control Using Multiple Readings Increases Measurement Accuracy For patients with hypertension, physicians typically use a single in-office blood pressure (BP) reading to assess how well medical interventions are working and then adjust hypertension medications accordingly. However, some patients may experience a phenomenon known as "white coat" hypertension, meaning they have a higher than normal BP due to the anxiety associated with the office visit. Researchers sought to determine how ...

No injury spike in Bantam bodychecking

2011-06-21

A new study published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal by University of Calgary Faculty of Kinesiology researcher Dr. Carolyn Emery and colleagues has shown that when bodychecking is introduced into Bantam ice hockey there is no difference between overall injury rates or concussion, regardless of whether players have prior bodychecking experience in Pee Wee. Emery, co-chair of the Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre at the University of Calgary Sport Medicine Centre, began by comparing injury and concussion rates in Alberta where bodychecking is allowed, ...

Shorter pause in CPR before defibrillator use improves cardiac arrest survival

2011-06-21

A shorter pause in CPR just before a defibrillator delivered an electric shock to a cardiac arrest victim's heart significantly increased survival, according to a study in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association. Researchers found the odds of surviving until hospital discharge were significantly lower for patients whose rescuers paused CPR for 20 seconds or more before delivering a shock (the pre-shock pause), and for patients whose rescuers paused CPR before and after defibrillation (the peri-shock pause) for 40 seconds or more, compared to patients with ...

Combining naturally derived 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors with highly potent anti-inflammatory agents, the scientific team showed how their proprietary composition could potentially outperform single agent hair ...

Acute Hepatitis A evades immune system more effectively than chronic cousin

2011-06-21

Chapel Hill, NC – Ongoing research into the problem of how Hepatitis C becomes a chronic disease has uncovered a deeper mystery about its sister strain, Hepatitis A. Hepatitis C is a continuing public health problem, which is difficult to measure because symptoms occur months to years after infection. The World Health Organization estimates as many as 2 to 4 million people in the United States may have chronic Hepatitis C, and most do not know they are infected. More than a third of those who are long-term carriers may develop chronic liver disease or liver cancer. "Hepatitis ...
