KENNESAW, GA, November 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) Every Life, an online distributor of survival water filters and do-it-yourself filtration kits, announces three new products to add to its filtration repertoire. Every Life's focus has been on do-it-yourself gravity-fed systems designed to be most util in emergency and disaster-relief scenarios where there is no access to clean sources of water. Every Life's new products utilize the same state-of-the-art filtration technology, but find expanded uses outside the gravity-drip model.
The previous 4" x 4" ceramic filter model has been resized to fit a number of new uses: a hanging bag perfect for camping and wilderness retreats; a water bottle designed for travel to countries with limited access to clean water; and a filtration vest designed for hiking trips and survivalist situations.
Access to sources of fresh, uncontaminated water is a growing problem around the world. In the aftermath of a natural disaster such as Japan's recent tsunamis, access to bottled water may become nonexistent. In many third-world environments, gathering drinking water remains a daily struggle. Every Life's filters are designed for these kinds of scenarios and more. The filters have seen use in Haiti where 30,000 were sent in the aftermath of the recent earthquakes. 10,000 were sent to Japan when bottled water became inaccessible in the aftermath of the tsunami. They have also been used in Pakistan and Zimbabwe.
The filters consist of a porous outer ceramic casing containing carbon and additional resins. The pore size is 0.2 microns. This is small enough to prevent any microbiological organism from contaminating the water. Inside the ceramic casing is a layer of activated carbon designed to strip the water of chemicals and any additional contaminates, as well as unpleasant taste or odor. In addition, the filters are heat-infused with micronized colloidal silver designed to prevent the growth of microbes within the filter itself.
Every Life hopes to distribute these filters to where they are most needed and has plans to launch a sponsorship program for churches and missionaries who want to be involved in water projects. For information on how you can sponsor a water project, please contact Every Life by email at info@everylifewaterfilters.com. Additional information about Every Life's product line, including detailed technical specifications and lab reports, can be found online at http://www.EveryLifeWaterFilters.com.
Every Life's product line of water filtration systems are designed for emergency and disaster-relief scenarios where access to clean water is unavailable. Do-it-yourself, gravity-fed systems designed to eliminate microbiological organisms, chemicals, and additional contaminants, as well as unpleasant odor and taste from even the most hazardous of water sources.

Rivers may aid climate control in cities
2011-11-21
Speaking at the URSULA (Urban River Corridors and Sustainable Living Agendas) Conference, in Sheffield, Dr Abigail Hathway, of the University of Sheffield, will demonstrate how rivers can cool their local environment. Urban areas suffer increased temperatures as a result of traffic, air-conditioning systems and modern building materials which can absorb and re-radiate heat from the sun.
Water produces a cooling microclimate, absorbing some of this excess heat, helping cities stay cool. As scientists learn more about these microclimates they can start to understand how ...
Online course got newly qualified nurses, midwives and AHPs off to a flying start

How the fly flies
2011-11-21
This press release is available in German.
Flies are real flight artists, although they only have small wings compared to their body size. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried near Munich, Germany, recently identified the genetic switch that regulates the formation of flight muscles. "The gene spalt is essential for the generation of the ultrafast super muscles," emphasizes Frank Schnorrer, head of the research group 'Muscle Dynamics'. "Without spalt, the fly builds only normal leg muscles instead of flight muscles." The scientists' results ...

Friends with benefits
2011-11-21
Human relationships are intense and long lasting, and differ in a number of ways from those of our fellow mammals. However, we still have little idea of what motivates us to continue to invest a considerable proportion of our energy and time in such relationships. A new study suggests that unlike rodents, which have been the focus of studies to date, we, along with our fellow primates, rely on endorphin rewards to motivate us to maintain our complex relationship networks. This new study argues that, while oxytocin and vasopressin have a role to play in the initial stages ...

Nudity tunes up the brain
2011-11-21
Researchers at the University of Tampere and the Aalto University, Finland, have shown that the perception of nude bodies is boosted at an early stage of visual processing. The research was funded by the Academy of Finland.
Most people like to look at pictures of nude or scantily clad human bodies. Looking at nude bodies is sexually arousing, and a nude human body is a classic subject in art. Advertising, too, has harnessed half-clothed models to evoke positive images about the products advertised. Brain imaging studies have localized areas in the brain which are specialized ...
Fatigue linked to safety problems among EMS workers, Pitt study finds
2011-11-21
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 17 – Fatigue and poor sleep quality, which affect many emergency medical services (EMS) workers, are linked to higher reported rates of injuries, medical errors and safety-compromising behaviors, according to a study by University of Pittsburgh researchers that is now available online in Prehospital Emergency Care and appearing in the January-March 2012 print edition.
"Emergency medical technicians and paramedics work long hours in a demanding occupation with an unpredictable workload, which can easily lead to fatigue and poor sleep. Our study is one ...
When it comes to EMS safety, worker perception may reflect reality, Pitt study finds
2011-11-21
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 17 – Poor perceptions about workplace safety culture among emergency medical services (EMS) workers is associated with negative patient and provider safety outcomes -- the first time such a link has been shown in the pre-hospital setting, according to a study by University of Pittsburgh researchers that now appears online in Prehospital Emergency Care and is scheduled to be published in the January-March print edition.
"There are sometimes drastic differences in how workers perceive their workplace safety from one EMS agency to the next," said senior ...
