Rejuvenating Rubber With Baby/Talcum Powder – Video

Posted: Published on January 21st, 2013

Rejuvenating Rubber With Baby/Talcum Powder a guy who used to frequent the record shop i worked at a few years ago told me about this method, and it's the first time i've tried it, and it has wonderful results! let's face it, rubber deteriorates over time and there's not much you can do about it other than the method in this video. this will rejuvenate rubber that's on its way out for whatever reason that may be. natural deterioration, improper cleaning, or simple age can make rubber sticky, gooey, dry, and and just kinda nasty in general to handle. this method will work on sticky rubber, if the rubber has gone gooey, it's too late for it, it'll need to be replaced. i don't know if this works on dried out rubber or not, i can't verify that, but it's worth a dry if the rubber is not cracked. any brand of baby powder that uses talcum powder should work just fine. if you'd rather not have the smell of baby powder, try looking in the men's section of the pharmacy for just plain talcum powder. sometimes they … Continue reading →

‘Quadruple helix’ DNA discovered in human cells

Posted: Published on January 21st, 2013

Jan. 20, 2013 In 1953, Cambridge researchers Watson and Crick published a paper describing the interweaving 'double helix' DNA structure -- the chemical code for all life. Now, in the year of that scientific landmark's 60th Anniversary, Cambridge researchers have published a paper proving that four-stranded 'quadruple helix' DNA structures -- known as G-quadruplexes -- also exist within the human genome. They form in regions of DNA that are rich in the building block guanine, usually abbreviated to 'G'. The findings mark the culmination of over 10 years investigation by scientists to show these complex structures in vivo -- in living human cells -- working from the hypothetical, through computational modelling to synthetic lab experiments and finally the identification in human cancer cells using fluorescent biomarkers. The research, published January 20 in Nature Chemistry and funded by Cancer Research UK, goes on to show clear links between concentrations of four-stranded quadruplexes and the process of DNA replication, which is pivotal to cell division and production. By targeting quadruplexes with synthetic molecules that trap and contain these DNA structures -- preventing cells from replicating their DNA and consequently blocking cell division -- scientists believe it may be possible to halt the … Continue reading →

NC office opens to provide autism services

Posted: Published on January 20th, 2013

DURHAM, N.C. During a recent behavior therapy session in Durham, Kimberly Tyler held out two different Play-Doh molds, and asked 11-year-old Chloe Young to choose between them. Tyler, an assistant behavior analyst with the Carolina Center for Applied Behavior Analysis and Autism Treatment, was working with Chloe, who has a severe form of autism, a developmental disorder. The exercise was to help her to learn to verbalize her own choices instead of echoing or repeating what another person says, Tyler said. They also painted her nails, since one of her goals is to tolerate grooming, she said. Their activities are broken into small steps, Tyler said. Chloe is offered reinforcement through activities that she said are motivating to her. Located in a building on Yorktown Avenue in Durham, the office is where Tracy Vail, an autism consultant and speech pathologist, has helped to launch a facility that combines different service providers for people with autism. Vail co-owns Let's Talk, a speech and language services company. In addition to Let's Talk and the Carolina Center for Applied Behavior Analysis and Autism Treatment, two other providers are in the building. Pediatric Possibilities, an occupational therapy practice, leases space there, as does a … Continue reading →

Promising new target for Parkinson's disease therapies

Posted: Published on January 20th, 2013

Jan. 18, 2013 With a new insight into a model of Parkinson's disease, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine have identified a novel target for mitigating some of the disease's toll on the brain. Narayan G. Avadhani, Harriet Ellison Woodward Professor of Biochemistry and chair of the Department of Animal Biology at Penn Vet, was the senior author on the research. Other department members contributing to the work included Prachi Bajpai, Michelle C. Sangar, Shilpee Singh, Weigang Tang, Seema Bansal and Ji-Kang Fang. Co-authors from Vanderbilt University are Goutam Chowdhury, Qian Cheng, Martha V. Martin and F. Peter Guengerich. To study Parkinson's, researchers have commonly mimicked the effects of the disease in animals by giving them a compound known as MPTP, a contaminant of the illicit drug MPPP, or synthetic heroin. MPTP causes damage to brain cells that respond to the neurotransmitter dopamine, leading to problems in muscle control, including tremors and difficulty walking. The common understanding of MPTP's mechanism was that it entered the brain and was eventually converted to the toxic compound MPP+ by the enzyme MAO-B, which is located on the mitochondria of non-dopaminergic (or dopamine-sensitive) neurons. Scientists believed MPP+ was carried by … Continue reading →

TOI Social Impact Awards: Enabling cover for the disabled

Posted: Published on January 20th, 2013

NEW DELHI: Apala's twin daughters were born with cerebral palsy. Deserted by her husband, the Delhi schoolteacher had nothing to fall back on when the girls, aged 10, needed surgery recently. Thankfully, she had Niramaya, the health insurance scheme started by the National Trust for the Welfare of Persons with Autism Cerebral Palsy Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities. Apala was reimbursed the entire surgery costs of about Rs 60,000. Niramaya has also helped people such as Raj Kumar, whose 13-year-old son is intellectually disabled. Last August, he spent Rs 2,450 on his son's medicines and was reimbursed Rs 2,000. He had joined the scheme in February last year, paying Rs 500 as premium. "It might not cover everything, but it's definitely a help," says Kumar, a government employee. Before Niramaya was conceived, persons with the kind of disabilities that National Trust deals with had no health insurance cover. No insurance company was willing to provide them health coverage . "Many treatment options or even surgeries which could improve the quality of life of these persons were never availed of. We decided to address this by designing a scheme with ICICI Lombard and launched it in 2007," explains Poonam Natrajan, chairperson … Continue reading →

‘Earth angel’ buys Tamiflu for flu sufferer with MS

Posted: Published on January 20th, 2013

OTTAWA If not for the kindness of an anonymous benefactor, Lacey Levair fears she could be dead or dying by now. And though her story has a happy ending, it raises questions about the adequacy of Ontarios drug benefit program. On Tuesday, the 29-year-old Stittsville resident was diagnosed with Type A influenza, the most virulent form of the disease. Though most people recover within 10 days or so, influenza and its complications kill between 2,000 and 8,000 Canadians each year. Among the most vulnerable are people with compromised immune systems. And few Canadians have immune systems more compromised than Lacey Levairs. Levair was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2007. She was soon unable to walk, confined to a wheelchair. But her fortunes took a turn for the better in 2010. Following a successful multi-year study of a new MS treatment involving stem cell transplants, Ottawa hematologist Dr. Harold Atkins chose Levair to be the first post-study recipient. Atkins collected stem cells from Levairs bone marrow in July 2010 and, after theyd been purified, transplanted them back into her body in November of that year. The results have been miraculous. While Levair technically still has MS, her symptoms have vanished. Im … Continue reading →
