LONDON, ENGLAND, December 20, 2012 (Press-News.org) Christmas is most certainly here and with it the long-standing tradition of knitwear in a variety of styles; from the humorous to the Scandinavian-chic.

One thing this winter is clear: Christmas jumpers once worn by Uncles and Dads are now the height of fashion. Vogue has heralded the movement as one to watch - it's a look that reaches its sartorial peak every festive season; however now it's a thing of cool beauty.

There are many ways designers have put into action a large re-embrace of the humble knit - namely by staying loyal to a traditional tried and tested formula. Jumpers are bold and bubbly - complete with fun, festive-themed logs. Snowflakes, Santa and Sleigh bells adorn bright red and green jumpers. Except they are a far cry from the itchy, scratch and homemade, these jumpers are luxe and lovely; made from cashmere and lambswool, stitched by the fingers of couture.

It isn't only the high-end designers throwing their magic on knitwear. The innovative high street too, is dabbling and designing a range. At the helm is New Look, a store renowned for their dynamic collections of up-to-the-minute fashion.

Do palm trees hold the key to immortality?

2012-12-19

For centuries, humans have been exploring, researching, and, in some cases, discovering how to stave off life-threatening diseases, increase life spans, and obtain immortality. Biologists, doctors, spiritual gurus, and even explorers have pursued these quests—one of the most well-known examples being the legendary search by Ponce de León for the "Fountain of Youth." Yet the key to longevity may not lie in a miraculous essence of water, but rather in the structure and function of cells within a plant—and not a special, mysterious, rare plant, but one that we may think of ...

Western University-led research debunks the IQ myth

2012-12-19

After conducting the largest online intelligence study on record, a Western University-led research team has concluded that the notion of measuring one's intelligence quotient or IQ by a singular, standardized test is highly misleading. The findings from the landmark study, which included more than 100,000 participants, were published today in the journal Neuron. The article, "Fractionating human intelligence," was written by Adrian M. Owen and Adam Hampshire from Western's Brain and Mind Institute (London, Canada) and Roger Highfield, Director of External Affairs, Science ...

Brake on nerve cell activity after seizures discovered

2012-12-19

SAN ANTONIO (Dec. 19, 2012) — Given that epilepsy impacts more than 2 million Americans, there is a pressing need for new therapies to prevent this disabling neurological disorder. New findings from the neuroscience laboratory of Mark S. Shapiro, Ph.D., at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, published Dec. 20 in the high-impact scientific journal, Neuron, may provide hope. "A large fraction of epilepsy sufferers cannot take drugs for their disorder or the existing drugs do not manage it," said Dr. Shapiro, professor of physiology in the School ...

UofL scientist uncovers how airway cells regenerate after chlorine gas injury

2012-12-19

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Scarring of the airways can lead to long-term breathing problems for some people exposed to high levels of chlorine gas from events such as an industrial accident, chemical spill following a train derailment or terroristic chemical warfare. Household mishaps from mixing bleach with acidic cleaning products also can cause release of chlorine gas; if this occurs in a poorly ventilated space, chlorine levels could be high enough to cause lung injury. University of Louisville scientist Gary Hoyle, Ph.D., School of Public Health and Information Sciences ...

Closest sun-like star may have planets

2012-12-19

Washington, D.C.— An international team of scientists, including Carnegie's Paul Butler, has discovered that Tau Ceti, one of the closest and most Sun-like stars, may have five planets. Their work is published by Astronomy & Astrophysics and is available online. At a distance of twelve light years and visible with a naked eye in the evening sky, Tau Ceti is the closest single star with the same spectral classification as our Sun. Its five planets are estimated to have masses between two and six times the mass of the Earth--making it the lowest-mass planetary system yet ...

NTU study finds ways to prevent muscle loss, obesity and diabetes

2012-12-19

A research study from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) has yielded important breakthroughs on how the body loses muscle, paving the way for new treatments for aging, obesity and diabetes. The study found that by inhibiting a particular molecule produced naturally in the body, muscle loss due to aging or illnesses can be prevented. Blocking the same molecule will also trigger the body to go into a 'fat-burning mode' which will fight obesity and also treat the common form of diabetes. The exciting discoveries have led NTU scientists to embark on joint clinical research ...

Successful results against human leishmaniasis with a more efficient and economic vaccine

2012-12-19

A research coordinated by the UAB has succeeded in testing a vaccine against leishmaniasis. The vaccine was tested with the best animal model existing, the golden hamster, and can be produced at low costs by using insect larvae. The research, published in the latest edition of PLoS ONE, is an important step towards the fight against a disease which causes the death of 70,000 people each year in developing countries and of countless dogs, which also suffer from this disease and are its natural reservoir. Leishmaniasis is one of the main health problems existing at global ...

Geo-engineering against climate change

2012-12-19

Numerous geo-engineering schemes have been suggested as possible ways to reduce levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and so reduce the risk of global warming and climate change. One such technology involves dispersing large quantities of iron salts in the oceans to fertilize otherwise barren parts of the sea and trigger the growth of algal blooms and other photosynthesizing marine life. Photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide as its feedstock and when the algae die they will sink to the bottom of the sea taking the locked in carbon with them. Unfortunately, ...
