Gray Area on "Possessing" vs. "Viewing" Creates Porn Ambiguity

2012-08-02
The New York Court of Appeals carved out a rather large exception when it ruled that a man could not be accused of certain child pornography charges because he did not "possess" the images - he'd viewed them online. And in early 2011, the Oregon Supreme Court similarly ruled that viewing images on a website did not equate to "possession." These cases suggest that in order to show possession of files or images, prosecutors must prove that a defendant downloaded, saved, or printed them. Images or files discovered in a defendant's browser cache will ...

Dnt Txt N Drv: Keeping Teen Drivers Safe in Florida

2012-08-02
It's no secret that texting while driving is dangerous. Distracted driving causes devastating accidents, prompting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recommend all states ban the use of phones in vehicles entirely. At least 35 states have already enacted prohibitions on texting while driving, but not Florida. Efforts to enact a texting ban in Florida have failed several times, most recently in 2012. Observers say the Legislature views a ban on texting as an unwanted government intrusion into a personal decision. The lack of a ban leaves drivers free ...

Bike Sharing Raises Helmet Issue

2012-08-02
New York is not alone in promoting bicycle riding through a bike share program. In fact, New York is coming rather late to the party. Many other cities, including Washington, D.C., Chicago, Denver, Des Moines, Miami Beach and Minneapolis, have established programs for bicycle sharing. European cities such as Paris, Barcelona and London have embraced bike sharing as a way to reduce pollution and traffic congestion. Sometimes it seems as if there are no downsides to bike sharing programs, which promote health and fitness, are inexpensive for riders and improve air quality. ...

Medical Malpractice: Poor Cosmetic Surgery Results Likely to Increase

2012-08-02
Your chances of obtaining substandard cosmetic surgery may well increase now that far more doctors with questionable training and expertise are performing such procedures. When you factor in the overall aging of the American population, lawyers may soon be filing many more: medical malpractice lawsuits concerning these types of mistakes and injuries. According to one recent New York Times article, doctors practicing in many different specialty areas who are now receiving "declining insurance reimbursements" are cashing in on the chance to increase their earnings ...

Child Custody Rights for Gays and Lesbians in Arkansas

2012-08-02
Same-sex marriage is against the law in Arkansas. However, this doesn't mean that same-sex couples don't join households, start families and live together as if they were married. It simply means that they do this without the legal protections afforded to heterosexual couples. As a result, child custody matters are more complicated when gay or lesbian parents are involved. Absent federal action, it is unlikely that this will change anytime soon. Arkansas has a constitutional amendment that explicitly defines marriage as being between one man and one woman. In addition, ...

Florida Supreme Court Case to Impact Thousands of Foreclosure Cases

2012-08-02
When a Florida man bought his home, half of a duplex, in 2006, little did he know that by 2012 this purchase would send him through foreclosure and into a court battle that could dramatically change the way foreclosure lawsuits are handled in Florida. The man, a construction worker, bought his home near the peak of the United States housing boom for just over $200,000. He put 20 percent down and financed the rest through Bank of America. When the economic downturn hit the country, the man struggled to find work and began missing his monthly mortgage payments, which ...

Gene network restores CF protein function

2012-08-01
Researchers at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine have discovered a genetic process that can restore function to a defective protein, which is the most common cause of cystic fibrosis (CF). Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease caused by mutations in a gene that adversely affect its protein product. In its correct form and cellular location, this protein, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), functions as a channel for ions to move across cell membranes, and is critical for maintaining cellular salt and water balance. The most ...

INFECTIOUS DISEASE Improving human immunity to malaria The deadlist form of malaria is caused the protozoan Plasmodium falciparum. During its life-cycle in human blood, the parasite P. falciparum expresses unique proteins on the surface on infected blood cells. Antibodies to these proteins are associated with protection from malaria, however, the identity of surface protein(s) that elicit the strongest immune response is unknown. Dr. James Beeson and colleagues at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research in Victoria, Australia have developed novel assays ...

A blue whirlpool in The River

A blue whirlpool in The River
2012-08-01
The galaxy NGC 1187 [1] is seen almost face-on, which gives us a good view of its spiral structure. About half a dozen prominent spiral arms can be seen, each containing large amounts of gas and dust. The bluish features in the spiral arms indicate the presence of young stars born out of clouds of interstellar gas. Looking towards the central regions, we see the bulge of the galaxy glowing yellow. This part of the galaxy is mostly made up of old stars, gas and dust. In the case of NGC 1187, rather than a round bulge, there is a subtle central bar structure. Such bar features ...

Cut emissions further or face risks of high air pollution, study shows

2012-08-01
Most of the world's population will be subject to degraded air quality in 2050 if man-made emissions continue as usual. In this 'business-as-usual' scenario, the average world citizen 40 years from now will experience similar air pollution to that of today's average East Asian citizen. These conclusions are those of a study published today in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, an Open Access journal of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). Air pollution is a major health risk that may worsen with increasing industrial activity. At present, urban outdoor air pollution ...
