Outstanding Finance - What It Means, And Why You Should Know About It
2012-10-18
As a result, when someone buys a vehicle on hire purchase (and some other forms of credit), they don't fully own it until they've paid off the money. This means they can't legally sell the vehicle - but that doesn't stop people trying to do so.
Half of new cars registered have finance secured against them - and one in four cars checked by Experian Vehicle Check still have outstanding finance. *
I'm buying a used car - so what are the risks for me?
Should you buy a car which still has an outstanding loan, hire purchase agreement or some other form of credit against ...

The Science of Breaking Up Via Space Station Re-Entry Investigation
2012-10-18
When an aerospace engineer says breaking up is hard to do, they are not referring to matters of the heart. Instead, they are looking at best practices for the breakup of large items returning from space to Earth. Understanding what happens during this process is the goal of the ReEntry Breakup Recorder, or REBR. This device hitched a ride on the European Space Agency's Automated Transfer Vehicle-3, or ATV-3, as it departed the International Space Station and re-entered Earth's atmosphere on Oct 2, 2012.
A better grasp of large item breakups could help economize deorbit ...

New insights into how genetic differences influence breast cancer risk from low-dose radiation
2012-10-17
Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have identified tissue mechanisms that may influence a woman's susceptibility or resistance to breast cancer after exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation, such as the levels used in full-body CT scans and radiotherapy.
The research could lead to new ways to identify women who have higher or lower risks of breast cancer from low-dose radiation. Such a predictive tool could help guide the treatment of cancer patients who may be better served by non-radiation therapies.

Overcoming memories that trigger cocaine relapse
2012-10-17
Researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) have identified mechanisms in the brain responsible for regulating cocaine-seeking behavior, providing an avenue for drug development that could greatly reduce the high relapse rate in cocaine addiction.
The research reveals that stimulation of certain brain receptors promotes inhibition of cocaine-associated memories, helping addicts to stop drug use. This inhibition is achieved through enhancing a process called "extinction learning," in which cocaine-associated memories are replaced with associations that ...

Discovery of two opposite ways humans voluntarily forget unwanted memories
2012-10-17
If only there were a way to forget that humiliating faux pas at last night's dinner party. It turns out there's not one, but two opposite ways in which the brain allows us to voluntarily forget unwanted memories, according to a study published by Cell Press October 17 in the journal Neuron. The findings may explain how individuals can cope with undesirable experiences and could lead to the development of treatments to improve disorders of memory control.
"This study is the first demonstration of two distinct mechanisms that cause such forgetting: one by shutting down ...
