KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA, November 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) Fans of the Hong Kong musician Jacky Cheung will be flocking to Kuala Lumpur this December for a much-anticipated series of concerts by the superstar.

The singer is visiting the Malaysian capital as part of his 1/2 Century Tour, which is the first major tour he has embarked upon in three years.

Known popularly as the "God of Songs" due to his melodious singing voice, demand for Cheung's Kuala Lumpur performances has been extremely high, prompting promoter UnUsUaL Productions to offer expanded seating and an extra tour date.

The run of concerts will now extend from December 8th until 11th at the Putra Indoor Stadium in Bukit Jalil, with a "spectacular musical extravaganza and an inspiring performance" promised by organisers.

In addition to his acclaimed singing career, Cheung has appeared in various Chinese-language films, winning awards for his work on stage and screen.

Story of lymphatic system expands to include chapter on valve formation

2011-11-15

A century after the valves that link the lymphatic and blood systems were first described, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have detailed how those valves form and identified a gene that is critical to the process. The gene is Prox1. Earlier work led by Guillermo Oliver, Ph.D., a member of the St. Jude Department of Genetics, showed Prox1 was essential for formation and maintenance of the entire lymphatic vasculature. The lymphatic vasculature is the network of vessels and ducts that help maintain the body's fluid balance and serves as a highway along ...

Withdrawal of care may occur too soon in cardiac arrest patients who receive hypothermia treatment

2011-11-15

(ORLANDO) -- Physicians may be making premature predictions about which patients are not likely to survive following cardiac arrest – and even withdrawing care -- before the window in which comatose patients who have received therapeutic hypothermia are most likely to wake up, according to two new studies from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The research helps to better define the proper timeframe and manner in which doctors may be able to predict which patients will regain consciousness after the use of therapeutic hypothermia, which ...

2011-11-15

DURHAM, N.C. – In a finding that confirms what many obstetricians and gynecologists suspected, Duke University researchers report that younger women who undergo hysterectomies face a nearly two-fold increased risk for developing menopause early.

"Hysterectomy is a common treatment for many conditions, including fibroids and excessive ...

A team of researchers led by the University of Colorado Boulder has discovered the first prehistoric bronze artifact made from a cast ever found in Alaska, a small, buckle-like object found in an ancient Eskimo dwelling and which likely originated in East Asia. The artifact consists of two parts -- a rectangular bar, connected to an apparently broken circular ring, said CU-Boulder Research Associate John Hoffecker, who is leading the excavation project. The object, about 2 inches by 1 inch and less than 1 inch thick, was found in August by a team excavating a roughly ...

Good preparation is key -- even for plant cells and symbiotic fungi

2011-11-15

Not only mineral oil and petroleum gas, also phosphorous is a scarce resource. According to well-respected scientists who gathered together for a conference in Cambridge this August, we will face significant problems relating to phosphorous deficiency in just 20 years from now. Phosphorous, this important and essential mineral, is part of our DNA and, therefore, irreplaceable. Many soils are already depleted for phosphorous today. Plants growing on these soils are only able to take up enough phosphorous by living in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM fungi). ...

Bats show ability to change their ear shapes, making their hearing more flexible

2011-11-15

"Certain bats can deform the shapes of their ears in a way that changes the animal's ultrasonic hearing pattern. Within just one tenth of a second, these bats are able to change their outer ear shapes from one extreme configuration to another," said Rolf Müller, associate professor of mechanical engineering at Virginia Tech. Müller and his students wrote a paper on their work that is appearing this week in Physical Review Letters, a prestigious peer-reviewed journal of the American Physical Society.
