YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND, August 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Join Simply Ghost Nights as we 'have taken over the asylum'... for a night.
The Lawn is a Greek style building with it's four columns and Doric entrance it is truly an architectural masterpiece, it's name is derived from the sprawling area in which it is situated. The Lawn was opened under the stewardship of the Reverend Doctor Willis in 1820 as the Lincoln Lunatic Asylum. It was one of the first asylums in the U.K, to treat patients with a caring and sympathetic manner, rather than the oppressive restrain and isolation method that was prevalent at the time.
It is said historically that the site was once a Roman burial ground, and was also used to bury the plague victims in the 17th century too. What will we unearth when we begin to dig deep ourselves and investigate the paranormal world of The Lawns?
We were told that staff have heard the sounds of approaching footsteps with no one else in the vicinity to have been responsible for the sounds. In some areas of the building it has been noted that the atmosphere is that heavy and sinister that visitors and staff have felt nauseous and afraid.
Ghostly whispering is said to be heard by staff and visitors when alone in certain rooms, and the feeling of been touched by unseen hands is also an occurrence that as frightened and terrified many people.
Staff have noticed dark shadows moving around in rooms that are unattended and doors mysteriously open and shut by themselves. The unexplained loud and aggressive banging that is also heard in the building is another phenomena that we will try to solve as we trawl the dark murky depths of this former asylum.
With so much activity and a colourful past you would have to be mad to miss this event.
Simply Ghost Nights offers a unique event package, a ghost hunting event whether it's for a corporate function, or for individuals. Simply Ghost Nights is at the fore front of providing a wealth of experience and all the latest ghost hunting equipment for their ghost hunters to use.
Join us if you dare!

STANFORD, Calif. — For a few years now, scientists have known that humans and their evolutionary cousins had some casual flings, but now it appears that these liaisons led to a more meaningful relationship.

A lifetime of physical activity yields measurable benefits as we age
2011-08-27
San Diego, CA, August 30, 2011 – The benefits of physical activity accumulate across a lifetime, according to a new study published in the October issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Researchers in England and Australia examined the associations of leisure time physical activity across adulthood with physical performance and strength in midlife in a group of British men and women followed since birth in March 1946.

New score can tell doctors how long cancer patients have left to live
2011-08-27
A new scoring system can more reliably predict whether patients with advanced cancer are likely to survive for "days", "weeks" or "months" finds a study published on bmj.com today.Patients with advanced cancer and their carers often wish to know how long they have left to live. This information is also important for clinicians to help them plan appropriate care. Clinician predictions of survival are the mainstay of current practice, but are unreliable, over-optimistic and subjective.
So a team of researchers, led by Dr Paddy Stone at St George's, University of London, ...

Vitamin A supplements for children could save 600,000 lives a year
2011-08-27
Children in low and middle income countries should be given vitamin A supplements to prevent death and illness, concludes a study published on bmj.com today.
The researchers argue that the effectiveness of vitamin A supplementation is now so well-established that further trials would be unethical, and they urge policymakers to provide supplements for all children at risk of deficiency.
Vitamin A is an essential nutrient that must be obtained through diet. Vitamin A deficiency in children increases vulnerability to infections like diarrhoea and measles and may also ...

Young and Karr propose ways to improve how observational studies are conducted
2011-08-27
S. Stanley Young, assistant director for bioinformatics at the National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS), and Alan Karr, director at NISS, have published a non-technical article in the September issue of Significance magazine pointing out that medical and other observational studies often produce results that are later shown to be incorrect, and—invoking a quality control perspective—suggest ways to fix the system.
Their central point is that the current system of publication in peer-reviewed journals relies on post-production inspection to ensure quality, a ...
Molecular chaperones traffic signaling proteins between cells in plant stem-cell maintenance pathway
2011-08-27
Cold Spring Harbor, NY – Like all living things, plants depend for their growth and sustenance on elaborate signaling networks to maintain stem cells, cells that have an almost magical regenerative capacity. The signals sent through these networks convey an incredible diversity of instructions, which make it possible for plants to follow genetic and cellular programs regulating growth, shape, and energy production and consumption.
A team of plant biologists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) led by Professor David Jackson has pioneered the use of genetics to discover ...
