ATLANTA, GA, March 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) Atlanta moving company A.C. White Relocations is proud to be a part of the environmentally friendly movement, and is one of the few Atlanta movers to have an ongoing green initiative in place.
The two main focuses of the Atlanta moving company's efforts to help the environment are transportation and recycling initiatives that help reduce the company's and its employees' environmental footprint.
A.C. White Relocations, an Atlanta moving company, is committed to reducing its carbon footprint in regards to transportation. In this vein, they have enacted a "no idling policy" for company vehicles that was originally encouraged by Georgia's Clean Air Campaign. They also encourage employees to reduce their work-related carbon footprints by condensing employee work weeks and encouraging mass transportation or carpooling when possible.
The Atlanta movers at A.C. White Relocations further their green initiative with a detailed recycling campaign which includes many of the materials they use daily in their business. They recycle cardboard, metal, and used office furniture to lower their environmental impact, and they reduce overall cardboard usage by using reusable moving equipment whenever possible.
"It's important for every business to be a responsible steward of our environment," notes Pete White, president of Atlanta moving company A.C. White Relocations. "Through our green initiative, we are striving to do our part to keep Atlanta beautiful for future generations to enjoy."

Penn researchers call for a re-examination of transplant waitlist prioritization
2012-03-29
PHILADELPHIA – Patients with end-stage liver disease complicated by the most common type of liver cancer – hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) – are less likely to die or become too sick for a transplant while waiting for a new liver than those with other complications of end-stage liver disease, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The investigators say their findings should prompt a re-examination of the criteria used to prioritize liver transplant candidates. Only three percent of patients with this common form ...
Consumers misunderstand 'cruelty-free' labeled products, MU, Oregon researchers find
2012-03-29
COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Based on a recent study, University of Missouri and Oregon researchers believe a legal definition for what constitutes "cruelty-free" labeled products should be determined and manufacturers should be required to abide by the legal use of the label. Many consumers intentionally buy products manufactured in ways that do not exploit child labor or cause minimal harm to animals or the environment. Many businesses, such as shampoo, cosmetic, fragrance and pharmaceutical companies, use the term cruelty-free to attract buyers, giving consumers the impression that ...
Study finds paramedics skilled in identifying strokes
2012-03-29
MAYWOOD, Ill. - If a paramedic suspects a patient is having a stroke, the paramedic is probably right, a Loyola University Medical Center study has found.
Researchers examined the records of 5,300 patients who were brought to Loyola's emergency room by emergency medical services (EMS). Paramedics were able to identify stroke patients with a 99.3 percent specificity. (In diagnosing disease, a high specificity rate indicates there's a high probability the patient actually has the disease.)
"If a paramedic thinks a patient is having a stroke, that should be a reliable indicator ...
Stopping a moving target: Novel compound halts brain tumor spread, improves treatment in animals
2012-03-29
Researchers from Emory and the Georgia Institute of Technology have designed a new treatment approach that appears to halt the spread of cancer cells into normal brain tissue in animal models.
Treating invasive brain tumors with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation has improved clinical outcomes, but few patients survive longer than two years after diagnosis. The effectiveness of treatment is limited by the tumor's aggressive invasion of healthy brain tissue, which restricts chemotherapy access to the cancer cells and complicates surgical removal of the tumor.
The ...

Discovery of foot fossil confirms 2 human ancestor species co-existed 3.4 million years ago
2012-03-29
Cleveland . . . A team of scientists has announced the discovery of a 3.4 million-year-old partial foot from the Woranso-Mille area of the Afar region of Ethiopia. The fossil foot did not belong to a member of "Lucy's" species, Australopithecus afarensis, the famous early human ancestor. Research on this new specimen indicates that more than one species of early human ancestor existed between 3 and 4 million years ago with different methods of locomotion. The analysis will be published in the March 29, 2012 issue of the journal Nature.

Federal agencies should take advantage of opportunities to promote integration of primary care and public health
2012-03-29
WASHINGTON — The traditional separation between primary health care providers and public health professionals is impeding greater success in meeting their shared goal of ensuring the health of populations, says a new report from the Institute of Medicine. Integration of these fields will require national leadership as well as substantial adaptation at the local level, said the committee that wrote the report.
The report recommends ways that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) could foster integration ...

UCSB Physicists mix 2 lasers to create light at many frequencies
2012-03-29
(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– A team of physicists at UC Santa Barbara has seen the light, and it comes in many different colors. By aiming high- and low-frequency laser beams at a semiconductor, the researchers caused electrons to be ripped from their cores, accelerated, and then smashed back into the cores they left behind. This recollision produced multiple frequencies of light simultaneously. Their findings appear in the current issue of the science journal Nature.
"This is a very remarkable phenomenon. I have never seen anything like this before," said Mark Sherwin, ...
