LAKE FOREST, CA, February 24, 2012 (Press-News.org) Felix Sanchez (also known as El Super Sanchez) is one of the most decorated 400m Hurdlers in history. To his name, he already has an Olympic Gold Medal, 2 Outdoor World Championships, 2 Pan American Championships and numerous other accolades. This past week, the 34 year old Sanchez made history again by breaking the Indoor World Record in two consecutive races by nearly half a second in each race.
The previous World Record of 49.73 seconds was set in 2010 by Sanchez as well. On February 4th, Sanchez competed in Mondeville, France, finishing his race in 49.25 seconds, nearly half a second faster than his previous record. Two weeks later, he raced again in France at the same track where he set the record back in 2010. This time, he broke the World Record again, finishing in just 48.78 seconds. This was nearly half a second faster than the record he had just set two weeks prior and nearly 1 second faster than his 2010 record setting performance.
Sanchez joined the Oxygen4Energy team of athletes about half way through the 2011 season because he had heard so many good things about their product and how it was helping other top track athletes like Kellie Wells, Danielle Carruthers, Brittney Reese, David Neville, and others increase their training capacity, reduce their recovery times, and perform better in competition.
According to Sanchez, "Oxygen4Energy has been a great addition to my training regimen. I'm training harder than ever, I'm recovering faster than ever, my body feels great and my competitive performances so far this year are a reflection of all that. I'm really excited to see how things turn out this year in what may be my last run at an Olympic medal."
After these amazing performances, one thing is very clear. El Super Sanchez is back! And he has his sights set on London!

Metal nanoparticles shine with customizable color
2012-02-24
Cambridge, Mass. - February 23, 2012 – Engineers at Harvard have demonstrated a new kind of tunable color filter that uses optical nanoantennas to obtain precise control of color output.
Whereas a conventional color filter can only produce one fixed color, a single active filter under exposure to different types of light can produce a range of colors.
The advance has the potential for application in televisions and biological imaging, and could even be used to create invisible security tags to mark currency. The findings appear in the February issue of Nano Letters.

Blood mystery solved
2012-02-24
You probably know your blood type: A, B, AB or O. You may even know if you're Rhesus positive or negative. But how about the Langereis blood type? Or the Junior blood type? Positive or negative? Most people have never even heard of these.
Yet this knowledge could be "a matter of life and death," says University of Vermont biologist Bryan Ballif.
While blood transfusion problems due to Langereis and Junior blood types are rare worldwide, several ethnic populations are at risk, Ballif notes. "More than 50,000 Japanese are thought to be Junior negative and may encounter ...
Healthy foods missing from stores in low-income black neighborhoods, UGA study finds
2012-02-24
Athens, Ga. – Most convenience stores have a wide variety of chips, colorful candies and bottles of sugar-sweetened carbonated beverages. While shoppers can buy calorie-heavy foods wrapped in pretty packages in these locations, what they usually can't find are the fresh produce, whole grains and low-fat dairy products necessary for a healthy diet.
These stores are the only nearby food source for millions of Americans living in what are called food deserts, because they are isolated from affordable healthy food. In recent studies, University of Georgia foods and nutrition ...
Preschools get disadvantaged children ready for the rigors of kindergarten
2012-02-24
Preschools help children prepare for the rigors of grade school—especially children who come from a minority family, a poor family, or whose parents don't provide high-quality interactions. The results of a new study of over 1,000 identical and fraternal twins, published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, confirm that preschool programs are a good idea.
Of course, many children from poor families excel in school. But it's no secret that many do not. People used to think this had to do with the lower-quality schools in poor ...
NASA pinning down 'here' better than ever
2012-02-24
Before our Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation devices can tell us where we are, the satellites that make up the GPS need to know exactly where they are. For that, they rely on a network of sites that serve as "you are here" signs planted throughout the world. The catch is, the sites don't sit still because they're on a planet that isn't at rest, yet modern measurements require more and more accuracy in pinpointing where "here" is.
To meet this need, NASA is helping to lead an international effort to upgrade the four systems that supply this crucial location information. ...
Underage drinking laws reduce future criminal behavior
2012-02-24
Los Angeles, CA (February 23, 2012) Do strict underage drinking laws really have a positive impact on society? A recent study finds that strictly enforcing possession of alcohol under the legal age or PULA (also known as PAULA) laws on teenagers reduces the likelihood that they will engage in alcohol-related crime as adults. This study was documented in the article "The Relationship between Underage Alcohol Possession and Future Criminal Behavior: An Empirical Analysis Using Age-Period Cohort Characteristics Models," published in SAGE Open.

MIT research: The high price of losing manufacturing jobs
2012-02-24
The loss of U.S. manufacturing jobs is a topic that can provoke heated arguments about globalization. But what do the cold, hard numbers reveal? How has the rise in foreign manufacturing competition actually affected the U.S. economy and its workers?
A new study co-authored by MIT economist David Autor shows that the rapid rise in low-wage manufacturing industries overseas has indeed had a significant impact on the United States. The disappearance of U.S. manufacturing jobs frequently leaves former manufacturing workers unemployed for years, if not permanently, while ...
Characteristics of fathers with depressive symptoms
2012-02-24
New York City, February 23, 2012 – Voluminous research literature attests to the multiple negative consequences of maternal depression and depressive symptoms for the health and development of children. In contrast, there is a profound paucity of information about depressive symptoms in fathers according to a follow up study by NYU School of Medicine researchers in the February 23rd online edition of Maternal and Child Health Journal.
In late 2011 lead investigator, Michael Weitzman, MD, professor of Pediatrics and Environmental Medicine and his co-authors identified, ...
Natural method for clearing cellular debris provides new targets for lupus treatment
2012-02-24
Augusta, Ga. – Cells that die naturally generate a lot of internal debris that can trigger the immune system to attack the body, leading to diseases such as lupus.
Now Georgia Health Sciences University researchers report that an enzyme known to help keep a woman's immune system from attacking a fetus also helps block development of these autoimmune diseases that target healthy tissues, such as DNA or joints.
The findings point toward new treatment strategies for autoimmune diseases, which are on the rise in light of a germ-conscious society that regularly destroys ...
