KOH SAMUI, THAILAND, July 08, 2011 (Press-News.org) The PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is also one of the cheapest places to gain the qualifications worldwide and is to be led by Camille Lemmens who has been recognised by PADI as being among the top instructors within the organisation.
The programme schedule will be split into two areas of study; the first being the Assistant Instructor (AI) where students will be guided through the principles needed to help out on certain dives. There'll then be a one day break before the Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) stage which covers areas such as performing rescue demonstrations and the methods for teaching the PADI system.
The course is designed to fully prepare people for the Instructor Exam (IE) so they're capable of passing it first time as divers need to gain this last qualification to be an instructor.
Attendees can choose to stay where the classes are to be held at the Kandaburi Resort or opt for other hotels in Chaweng Beach. Lemmens is also offering a two day refresher course before the main classes for people to sharpen their skills and anyone who then doesn't go on to pass the IE can take the classes again for free.
Lek Boonlert, marketing head at DirectRooms.com, commented: "Chaweng is Samui's busiest resort area and with the extra number of divers hotels at certain locations will be much busier."

'Pure' human blood stem-cell discovery opens door to expanding cells for more clinical use
2011-07-08
(Toronto – July 8, 2011) – For the first time since stem cells were discovered here 50 years ago, scientists have isolated a human blood stem cell in its purest form – as a single stem cell capable of regenerating the entire blood system. This breakthrough opens the door to harnessing the power of these life-producing cells to treat cancer and other debilitating diseases more effectively.
The research is published today in Science (http://www.sciencemag.org/lookup/doi/10.1126/science.1201219).
"This discovery means we now have an increasingly detailed road map of the ...
Herschel finds source of cosmic dust in a stellar explosion
2011-07-08
ESA's Herschel Space Observatory is helping unravel the mystery of where cosmic dust comes from. Thanks to the resolution and sensitivity of Herschel, astronomers have been able to detect cosmic dust from a supernovae, adding weight to the theory that these cosmic fireworks are responsible for its creation.
The origin of the dust is important because it plays a crucial role in the formation of stars, particularly billions of years ago when star formation was at its peak. Galaxies like our own Milky Way are not simply collections of stars, but also contain clouds of ...

World War II bombing raids offer new insight into the effects of aviation on climate
2011-07-08
Climate researchers have turned to the Allied bombing raids of the Second World War for a unique opportunity to study the effect thousands of aircraft had on the English climate at a time when civilian aviation remained rare. The study, published in the International Journal of Climatology, reveals how civilian and military records can help assess the impact of modern aviation on the climate today.
The research, led by Prof Rob MacKenzie, now at the University of Birmingham, and Prof Roger Timmis of the Environment Agency, used historical data to investigate the levels ...

Evolution and domestication of seed structure shown to use same genetic mutation
2011-07-08
For the first time, scientists have identified a mutation in plants that was selected twice - during both natural evolution and domestication.
The mutation has been identified as the source of variation in the evolution of fruit morphology in Brassica plants and it was also the source of key changes during the domestication of rice.
"We have shown that the genetic source of both natural and man-made changes was the same," said one of the authors on the findings, Dr Robert Sablowski from the John Innes Centre, which is strategically funded by the BBSRC.
"These insights ...

Control of gene expression: Mediator MED26 shifts an idling polymerase into high gear
2011-07-08
KANSAS CITY, MO—Look up "transcription"—the copying of a gene's DNA into RNA intermediaries—in any old molecular biology text book, and it all seems very simple: RNA polymerase II, the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction, assembles at the start site and starts motoring down the strand, cranking out the RNA ribbon used to construct proteins. But researchers now know that RNA polymerase II often stalls on DNA strands where it was once assumed to just barrel down.
A report from the Conaway lab at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research in the July 8, 2011, edition of ...

Stem cells know where they want to go: McMaster researchers
2011-07-08
Hamilton, ON (July 7, 2011) – Human stem cells have the ability to become any cell type in the human body, but when it comes to their destination they know where they want to go.
This finding by McMaster University researchers sheds new light on how these regenerative cells turn into more specialized cell types, such as neural or blood cells. Until now, the thought has been that stem cells keep all their options open and have no preference when it comes to becoming more specialized.
In a paper published in the scientific journal Cell Stem Cell, Mick Bhatia, director ...
