Independent Local Business Vies for Movie Rentals with Corporate Giant Redbox
2012-10-31
Movie rental kiosks are filling the vacuum left behind by the closure of Blockbuster and other video stores in Lethbridge, Alberta.
The U.S. corporate giant Redbox is riding the wave of its tremendous U.S. success north into Canada. It has said it plans to launch as many as 2,500 kiosks in Canada by the end of 2013 and recently announced new partnerships with Shoppers Drug Mark and Loblaw Companies, which owns the Wholesale Club and Real Canadian Superstore in Lethbridge.
And then there's Coaldale resident Kirk Allison with his independent company called U Do It ...
House Flipping Website Sees Spike in Interest, Traffic
2012-10-31
The National Fix and Flip Network is pleased to announce that house flipping, after many years of dormancy, has returned. Not only are profits increasing for house flippers, but interest is also on the rise.
According to statistics from the largest search engine, the number of search queries for "house flipping" has nearly doubled in the past year. And in the first half of 2012, there were 25 percent more flips than the same period a year earlier.
With interest on the rise, the National Fix and Flip Network has experienced a surge in website traffic and ...
Researchers identify genetic basis of cardiac, craniofacial birth defects
2012-10-30
CORVALLIS, Ore. – A group of researchers in Israel, the United States and other nations have made important advances in the rapidly-expanding field of "regenerative medicine," outlining for the first time connections in genetic regulation that normally prevent birth defects in heart and facial muscles.
Some of these problems are surprisingly common – about 1 percent of all people have a congenital heart defect. This basic research will provide a road map to ultimately allow scientists to grow the cell types needed to repair such defects, from stem cells that can be generated ...
Complementary and alternative therapy improved lives of arthritis patients
2012-10-30
Nearly a quarter of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis used complementary and alternative therapy (CAT) to help manage their condition, according to a study in the November issue of the Journal of Clinical Nursing.
Researchers interviewed 250 patients aged between 20 and 90 years of age. More than two-thirds (67%) had rheumatoid arthritis and the remainder had osteoarthritis.
They found that 23% used CAT in addition to prescribed drugs and that just under two-thirds of those (64%) felt that the therapy was beneficial, reporting improvements in pain ...
Infrared vision in a cichlid fish
2012-10-30
Biologists from the University of Bonn have discovered that the cichlid fish Pelvicachromis taeniatus can see in the near infrared range; this was thought to be unlikely until now. Seeing in the infrared range is apparently helping fish to hunt in shallow African rivers. The results will be published in the journal "Naturwissenschaften" and are already available online now.
A research team in the work group of Prof. Dr. T. C. M. Bakker at the Institute for Evolutionary Biology and Ecology, University of Bonn, has been studying the biology of the African cichlid fish ...
Researchers to debate the call for sexual abstinence education in schools
2012-10-30
Introducing abstinence education into UK schools could be a less effective substitute for comprehensive Sex and Relationship Education (SRE) aimed at children and young adults, say a research team led by Sheffield Hallam University.
As part of the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) Festival of Social Science 2012, Sheffield Hallam and partners will host a one day event to debate the issues surrounding abstinence education.
Dr Julia Hirst, from the Public Health Hub at Sheffield Hallam, says "We hope to bring together politicians, teachers, youth workers, young ...
Reducing radiation: Heart Institute model shows hope for new standards worldwide
2012-10-30
Toronto, October 29, 2012 – The University of Ottawa Heart Institute (UOHI) is setting the stage in what could become a revolution in medical imaging in Canada as it announces striking results in radiation reduction for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. The announcement comes as UOHI is currently showcasing its expertise at the 2012 Canadian Cardiovascular Congress in Toronto.
As a result of an initiative that combines optimizing test protocols, state-of-the art equipment, and high-tech software, two-thirds of the Ottawa Heart Institute's Nuclear Cardiology patients ...
Cocktail achieves superconducting boost
2012-10-30
Physicists describe how they have synthesized a new material that belongs to the iron-selenide class of superconductors, called LixFe2Se2(NH3)y, in a paper about to be published in EPJ B. The work was carried out by Ernst-Wilhelm Scheidt from the University of Augsburg and colleagues. This material displays promising superconducting transition temperatures of 44 Kelvins (K) at ambient pressure, thus improving upon traditional copper-based high-temperature superconductors.
The ultimate goal of scientists developing such materials is to reach superconducting characteristics ...
Curiosity on Mars sits on rocks similar to those found in marshes in Mexico
2012-10-30
Millions of years ago fire and water forged the gypsum rocks locked in at Cuatro Ciénegas, a Mexican valley similar to the Martian crater where NASA's Rover Curiosity roams. A team of researchers have now analysed the bacterial communities that have survived in these inhospitable springs since the beginning of life on Earth.
"Cuatro Ciénegas is extraordinarily similar to Mars. As well as the Gale crater where Curiosity is currently located on its exploration of the red planet, this landscape is the home to gypsum formed by fire beneath the seabed," as explained to SINC ...
Enigmatic nematics
2012-10-30
Physicists use hydrodynamics to understand the physical mechanism responsible for changes in the long-range order of groups of particles. Particularly, Aparna Baskaran of Brandeis University, Massachusetts, USA, and Cristina Marchetti of Syracuse University, New York, USA, focused on ordered groups of elongated self-propelled particles. They studied the breakdown of long-range order due to fluctuations that render them unstable and give rise to complex structures, in a study about to be published in EPJ E.
The authors coined the term self-propelled nematics to refer ...
