Pingie: HTTP:: Think Thin and You Will Lose Weight

HTTP:: Think Thin and You Will Lose Weight
--------
It’s a widely acknowledged fact that the diet industry, as it is now, is more or less one big con, with many arguments brought along the years to show that those behind it (authors of books, producers of pills and slimming products) really do not want us, the average Janes and Joes, to lose weight. According to a recent study, we might not even need all those books and pills and diets, since thinking of losing weight alone can work, the Daily Mail says. Anne Shooter of the Mail, an esteemed author of diet books and boasting a 40-year expertise in the field, wonders how come women continue not to lose weight, and, on the contrary, are even heavier than before, despite the proliferation of the diet industry. Her conclusion is the same as above: the industry is too lucrative to offer real solutions, while the temptations at hand are too many to fight off successfully. There is a way, though, Shooter says, citing the findings of a recent Canadian study. Apparently, scienti!
sts have determined that one can lose weight without moving one single muscle: just by thinking of it. With this in mind, only imagining a 15-minute workout would have the same results as actually putting in the effort and breaking off a sweat at the gym or at home. It’s called “thought exercise” and, allegedly, it works so, ...

HTTP:: Ancient Mayans Did Forest Conservation 3000 Years Ago
--------
According to a new investigation, it would appear that the Mayans were in the habit of practicing forest conservation, archaeological pieces of evidence point out. They also conserved the land and water on their territories, and historians now believe that the time when they abandoned these practices spelled nothing but troubles for the ancient culture. A paper on the theme is published in the July issue of the Journal of Archaeological Science.Experts at the University of Cincinnati reveal that the management practiced by the past civilization should teach us a valuable lesson about the importance of protecting our environment. “From our research we have learned that the Maya were deliberately conserving forest resources. Their deliberate conservation practices can be observed in the wood they used for construction and this observation is reinforced by the pollen record,” University of Cincinnati Professor of Biological Sciences David Lentz, who is also the Cincinnati !
Center for Field Studies executive director, explains.“Forty years ago the emphasis was on what king built what palace, who slew whom and who is portrayed on what stelae. It's all about the rulers and their exploits. They didn't look at the economy, agricultural pr...

Launched in the UK in May, the Scala Bio-Fir underpants, which make the bold claim of being able to melt cellulite and inches away from the thighs, backside and abdomen, have officially become the hottest item of the type, the Daily Mail says. John Lewis, the department store where the knickers are available, is equally stunned by women’s reaction to the product â€" and, of course, en route to making another batch available. Figures made public by the British newspaper indicate that, indeed, the anti-cellulite knickers are officially the best selling item of the kind this year. Not only do the underpants boast of being able to literally melt fat away, but they can also be worn underneath clothes (say, body hugging items) to create the impression of slimmer, better toned curves. A new batch of 40,000 such underpants is to become available at John Lewis shortly. A representative from the store is telling the Mail that the Scala Bio-Fir underpants are officially its best!

Music games are a big business, even in these troubled economic times, so when Activision is preparing a new release in its prestigious Guitar Hero franchise you can bet that it will keep the hype train going for as long as it can.

The company, after unveiling a few portions of the massive 85-song playlist, has now announced 24 more tracks that will test the players' musical and gaming skills.

In November, when it’s released, “New Moon” will see Taylor Lautner as no longer the delicate-looking Jacob fans got to meet in “Twilight,” as it’s already a well-known fact. The young actor underwent a grueling workout regime and a very strict diet to get in a more wolf-worthy shape, but it was no easy task, he says for the latest issue of Interview magazine (story via Yahoo!

However, this is actually the first time that he goes into minute details about his diet and how badly he had it at one point.

Experts from the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have recently proposed a new method of separating carbon dioxide from the emission pertaining to fossil fuel-powered plants, which is both more efficient and cleaner than the existing one. The new screening method involves the use of ionic liquids, which are, essentially, special salts that become liquid at temperatures under 100 degrees Celsius, the boiling point of water. Details of the innovation appear in the latest issue of the new, chemistry and sustainability-focused journal ChemSusChem.The capture process, namely the extraction of carbon dioxide from the other gases in plant-generated smoke, is the most essential part of the whole carbon-capture and -sequestration process (CCS), which is now widely touted as an effective solution of reducing pollution in the short term. In this process, the dangerous greenhouse gas is separated from all other constituents, and then directe!

Often labeled as one of the most ambitious projects in the world, the Blue Brain initiative was started in 2005 with the purpose of constructing an artificial brain. Through that, its creators understand constructing an accurate replica of the way our minds work that could be used in studying mental conditions in the future. The project's Director, Henry Markram, announced recently at the TED Global conference, held in Oxford, that the initiative would yield conclusive results within a decade. If all went well, he said, a hologram would inform attendants in ten years' time of the accomplishment. His optimistic tone was drawn from the fact that the BBP had already managed to mimic parts of the rat brain in their complexity, which means that groundwork for creating a human one is already set. The reason why the team worked so hard for this purpose, the expert said, was the fact that an estimated two billion people around the world suffered from one or more forms of mental im!

Therefore, research into the symptoms, causes and manifestations of such conditions need to be carefully analyzed and understood. “It is not impossible to build a human brain and we can do it in 10 years.

Brad Pitt is not generally the star one would expect to see or hear gushing about their personal life, but it seems that the German magazine Bild caught him in a very good mood last time they sat down for an interview. Initially meant to be for promotional purposes for Pitt’s latest movie, “Inglourious Basterds,” the discussion slowly swerved away to other topics of general interest for the greater public, such as what it was like to be Brad Pitt on an everyday basis, his relationship with Angelina and the six children they had together. For starters, Brad Pitt is a man of short and straight-to-the-point answers, the Bild interview reveals. He doesn’t like to beat around the bush or answer a simple question in such a complicated way that no one can understand, but the brevity of his answers is also determined by his living a busy life, he explains. As a father of six, he has “to be quick and focused,” Brad says, and this also affects his professional life. Eit!

In the recent past weeks, there has been a surge of leaked details on Intel's next-generation processors that surfaced on the Internet. The world's leading chip maker is expected to announce several new processors by the end of this year, some of which will be part of new processor families, like Core i5 and Core i3 for mainstream users. However, it now appears that the company is also planning to unveil its very first Core i9 processors, slated to arrive in the first quarter of 2010. According to preliminary details, these new CPUs are based on the 32nm Westmere core and will provide computer users with a 6-core architecture.   In a recent news article, Digitimes cites sources at PC makers that claim Intel has decided to push back the Pine Trail-D platform for nettops, along with the Pine Trail-M for netbooks. The two platforms are now expected to arrive in the first quarter of 2010, alongside the company's much-anticipated Clarkdale-based chips. The decision is part of t!
he chip maker's recently set strategy to push mainstream PCs for the second half of 2009, when sales are expected to pick up, while entry-level products will be introduced in 2010, according to the aforementioned sources.

Much has been said about the part Michael Jackson’s personal doctors might have played in his year-long drug addiction and, ultimately, death. However, until now, police could come up with nothing against them, despite the ongoing speculation and damning reports. The other day, the DEA and LAPD officers descended to Dr. Conrad Murray’s offices to search for evidence of manslaughter in the Jackson case, TMZ informs. Police spent several hours at Murray’s offices in Houston, looking for medical records of the late King of Pop and any other proof that might indicate that the doctor was, indeed, feeding Jackson’s drug addiction by getting him prescription pills.

The gaming industry has quite a few figure heads in terms of video game characters, which have pushed the whole genre forward through the adventures that they have been on. One such famous character is Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog, which made history during the early years of gaming.Sadly, in recent years, things haven't been so good for the blue hedgehog, as Sega's resident Sonic Team hasn't made the best titles for it. But, fortunately for the speedy animal, the developers collaborated with Dimps and delivered Sonic Rush, one of the first Sonic titles for Nintendo's hugely successful DS handheld platform. The game was released on November 15, in North America, while the PAL region received it on November 18, and Japanese fans got a taste of Sonic on November 23, all in 2005. Even though the blue hedgehog wasn't popular those days, the top-notch gameplay and graphics of the title made it a best-seller and prompted some big critical acclaim from reviewers.Here are some of its !

One of the most widespread types of memory today is the “flash” one, the kind that can be found in the average USB drive. The popular, non-volatile technology is, however, beginning to reach its limits, as efforts to fit more data into smaller devices are becoming increasingly difficult. That's why Italian experts at the Laboratorio Nazionale MDM, in Milan, are currently looking for new architectures to overcome these hurdles. The answer, they believe, lies within “phase change” or “resistive change” materials, which store data by changing their electrical properties, ICT Results reports. Dr. Grazia Tallarida, the coordinator of the new VERSATILE project for the Laboratorio Nazionale MDM, says of the challenges facing flash drives today that, “Making these devices smaller and also enlarging their capacity is becoming more and more difficult. So there is a lot of work now to find different technologies for non-volatile memories.” Talking about the newly prop!
osed type of memory, the expert adds that, “These are materials in which you store information â€" zero or one â€" by changing the electrical properties. They just need a voltage drop across them to be switched between an ‘off’ state and an ‘on’ state.” ...

HTTP:: First Nanoscale Mass Spectrometer Created
--------
California Institute of Technology (Caltech) scientists managed to create the first mass spectrometer at the nanoscale in the world. The device is able to measure the mass of single molecules in real-time, combining the action of components several billionths of a millimeter in size. The new method is a significant break-off from the traditionally complex process of large-scale mass spectrometry, which is incredibly  cumbersome to perform. Details of the accomplishment appear in the latest issue of the journal Nature Nanotechnology.In regular mass spectrometry, samples containing several tens of hundreds of molecules are ionized, a process that results in electrically charged atoms called ions. These components are then directed into an electrical field, where the way they move around is analyzed. The movement patterns are generated by their masses and energies, which allows physicists to extract their mass-to-charge ratio. Ultimately, this knowledge can be used to obtain !
the actual mass of the targeted molecules.In the new nanoscale method devised at Caltech, this cumbersome procedure is significantly simplified. The spectrometer is basically made up of two nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) resonators, tiny, bridge-like structures, two micrometers long and 100 nanometers ...

A microfluidic device, or a lab-on-a-chip, is a contraption that is able to detect certain chemicals or microorganisms in minute samples of materials that are passed through it. Experimental samples can be made to pass through it via electromechanical valves, which is the preferred method among scientists. However, experts at the University of Michigan have recently demonstrated that music can also be used for the same purpose, replacing the existing valves. Details of the find appear in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), in the issue that appeared in the week of July 20th.When the technology of microfluidic devices will develop sufficiently enough, they will become an everyday commodity. Because they combine numerous functions into a single machinery, they could be used to determine if there are any contaminants in tap water or in grocery food, or if the air conditioning is functioning properly. Their limited sizes, of a few millimeters to !
a few centimeters, will replace bulky laboratory equipment, and will allow home owners to bring science into their kitchens.At this point, labs-on-a-chip are used in connection to a computer, which coordinates a vast network of air hoses, valves and electrical connections between the tw...

Chimpanzees have over the years been associated and compared with humans both in terms of appearance and mental prowess, but a growing sentiment among academics has it that the primates will never be able to actually invent things. This trait, which involves high abstractionism skills and planning ahead, seems to be reserved entirely for the human race. Apparently, chimps have the ability to use crude tools, but they are not developed by single individuals living isolated (proof of ingenuity), but by members of a pack learning from each other.“For culture to accumulate â€" to become more and more complex â€" requires innovations and one of the first ways in which hominins clearly went beyond chimpanzees was in making stone tools,” explains St. Andrew's University expert Andrew Whiten, quoted by NewScientist.

A British woman with serious fertility issues, Melanie King, was told she was too fat to adopt when she and her husband, Jason, wanted to initiate the procedures to have a baby.

In her early 20s, she took steroids to treat asthma and then, later on, she suffered a severe back injury that had her, again, on steroids. Afterwards, no matter what she did, she continued to gain weight, to the point where she was even denied the right to adopt on health concerns.

Previous polls have revealed that most women have went on a diet at least once in their life, while they spend plenty of their time thinking of food, either how to cut down on it or to eat healthier so that pounds don’t pile on again. A recent survey comes to show that, while this still holds true, ladies are no longer aspiring to be thin, but rather to get the much-coveted hourglass figure, the Daily Mail informs. Women’s perspective on the “perfect female body” has changed considerably recently, because their bodies have also changed, clearly. Probably due to this fact, or perhaps because the emphasis in the media has switched from bones to curves, ladies no longer diet to be flat skin but rather to get the much-eluded and desirable hourglass silhouette, the Mail says, citing the findings of the latest poll conducted by Special K breakfast cereal brand. The 2,000 British women queried by the company have answered bluntly that, while they mostly see themselves a!
