Pingie: HTTP:: Obesity Caused by Blissful Combo of Fat Sugar and Salt Doctor Says

HTTP:: Obesity Caused by Blissful Combo of Fat Sugar and Salt Doctor Says
--------
We as a society have probably grown accustomed to looking at people who struggle with their weight and think, “They’ve brought it upon themselves,” because they did not exercise enough willpower. At the same time, we’re constantly being told that the obesity epidemics is about to reach a troubling threshold in the next few years, which might seem to reinforce the above-mentioned observation. In his new book, “The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite,” Dr. David A. Kessler argues humanity needs deconditioning from food in order to successfully battle obesity, as DesertNews can confirm. The book, out now, argues that there is much more to our uncontrollable desire to eat than just the lack of motivation. What happens is that there is a very powerful combination of stimuli that makes us unable to resist certain foods, Kessler says. This, combined with the way food is regarded now (that is, not just as nutrition), contributes to we!
aken our will and add the pounds on our not-exercised-enough frames. Dealing with the obesity epidemics is one of the greatest health challenges ever, the doctor, who acted as commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the ‘90s and also worked for 15 years on the tobacco health program...

HTTP:: Spore Creatures Unlockables III DS
--------
Spore was one of last year's biggest and most hyped-up titles to appear. Being the next big thing from Sims creator Will Wright and promising to let players create their own creature and then guide it through the stages of its evolution, the title became very popular on the PC.But the new franchise has also received a handheld version, in the form of Spore Creatures, which was made through a collaboration between the owner of the rights and the creator of the PC verison, Maxis, and Foundation 9. The title was released on September 5, 2008 in Europe and in North America on September 7, the same year.The title borrows a lot of features from the PC version, as it will allow players to have the same basic experience, which touches on creativity, exploration, sharing and collecting. The unique features of the Nintendo DS are the stylus, the touchscreen setup and the wireless connection that is included. The game focuses more on the creature phase and has its own creator that has!
the same name as the title.As the creatures made by the players evolve, they will be able to explore their planet and, eventually, their galaxy, making friends and enemies along the way. A special feature called the Spore Species Guide will keep track of the animals they encounter along the way, including...

HTTP:: The Y Lift Minimally Invasive Painless Lunchtime Facelift
--------
As years start to pile, the skin loses its youthful glow and begins to sag, which is why they say you can tell a person’s age by looking at their face. One theory would have it that we’re actually “growing” more skin, or that gravity is taking its toll, but Dr. Yan Trokel says this is far from the case. Based on this premise, he has come up with the Y Lift, a revolutionary procedure that helps combat saggy skin on the face and eliminates wrinkles and other signs of old age. Unlike the traditional facelift, the Y Lift is not a surgical procedure, therefore there is no recovery time, no scars, no bleeding or bruising, and no stitches. The few incision marks that are made during the procedure take only a few days to disappear, the same also applying to the sensation of mild tenderness in the face for a short interval following the procedure. What’s even better, the effects of the procedure last up to two years and the substance used is all natural, which means cons!
iderably less risks of getting the “pillow face,” as is the case with plastic surgery, or the “frozen” look, as many Botox fans may have already learned the hard way. “After years of study, Dr. Yan Trokel created a revolutionary procedure he calls the Y Lift. The Y Lift is a...

HTTP:: The PlayStation 3 Manufacturing Costs Have Dropped by 70 Says Sony
--------
The PlayStation 3 is the most powerful console of this current generation, costing Sony a lot of money to develop and to market. But while the platform has a lot of aces up its sleeve, from online functionality to a lot of exclusive games, most of the customers are still put off by its high price tag, ranging around $399. However, though many people mandated for a price cut almost since the console was released, executives from the Japanese company reiterated time and time again that they had a business to maintain and that it couldn't break even with the development cost of the console if they charged less money for it. This strategy worked for some time now but, as voices asking for a price cut are becoming louder and louder, analysts are still wondering just what Sony is thinking. In a pretty interesting investor call, the Sony Corporation CEO Nobuyuki Oneda made a very interesting statement, namely that the manufacturing costs of the PS3 dropped by “about 70 percent!
, roughly speaking.” He also said that everything was on schedule and that Sony's strategy wouldn't be changed by anyone. “The cost reduction since we introduced the PS3 is very substantial and this is on schedule. We don’t disclose how much of the PS3, specifically the cost deducti...

Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia released at the end of last week a new software version for its Nokia 5800 XpressMusic handset. Although at the time we reported that the new firmware came with a series of improvements, the changelog wasn't available, and only a few of the enhancements were mentioned. This time around, however, the entire list of new features is available, and you can learn in detail what's new. According to tweakers.net, the new firmware comes with improvements regarding the Standby screen of the handset, as well as with some connected with the call log and contacts, maps, music player, camera, video, web, and others. Compared to the previously available 21.002 flavor of the software, the overall system speed has been improved, as was the stability of the device. As for the enhancements that have been spotted, it seems that the music player is faster than before, and the same applies to the calling speed of the phone. In addition, the in-call menu show!
s a Send MMS option, while the loudspeaker maximum volume has decreased. Great speed improvements have been observed with the Maps as well, both when launching them and when navigating through them.

Pingie: HTTP:: How to Escape a Giant Swelling Red Sun

HTTP:: How to Escape a Giant Swelling Red Sun
--------
The fact that the Sun will not last forever is now clear to the entire scientific community, and indeed most of the world. We know that it appeared about 4.57 billion years ago, and that, in about five billion years or so it will begin to swell into a red giant. This will happen because it doesn't have enough mass to explode into a supernova. The bad news is that, when it starts swelling, it will eventually expand to a region that now hosts our planet's orbit. That means that the Earth will literally be engulfed by flames. Experts say that there is a small possibility the Earth will remain untouched by the solar surface, although, even in this scenario, temperatures on the surface become too great for liquid water to exist, exterminating all life and making the world a vast desert. However, the growing consent in the astronomical community is that we will be swallowed. We should still take comfort in knowing that the situation can be addressed, some expert say. It is pos!
sible that looser gravitational bounds would allow for our planet to escape to a safer orbit naturally, before the swelling Sun gets to it. But this scenario carries its catches too, experts say. “If that were the only effect, the Earth would indeed escape final destruction. However, the tenuous outer atmosphere of the sun extends a long ...

Therefore, we have mutually decided that now is the right time for Eric to resign his position on Apple’s Board.” In his statement, Apple’s CEO revealed what pretty much every tech-focused analyst had predicted â€" that Google’s newly announced OS would pose a threat to Apple.

Doctors and health experts have been amazed by how fast and efficient the skin repairs itself since the dawn of time. Within just a few days, superficial scratches to the skin are healed without any trace, and with no scars. Special mechanisms inside the skin contribute to this effect, and experts have been looking for ways of replicating them for quite some time now. Scientists at the Fraunhofer Gessellschaft, in Germany, have recently made this possible, when they have invented a new type of electroplated layer that contains nanovesicles. As soon as the layer is damaged, liquid flows from the capsules, and repairs it completely. The tiny, nanometer-sized capsules are highly efficient at performing this task, AlphaGalileo reports. For a long time, the team behind the innovation, from the Manufacturing Engineering and Automation IPA, in Stuttgart, have been annoyed by the fact that rust-protective layers, which are placed on metals to prevent them from catching rust, once !
damaged, lose their abilities. The same does not hold true for the skin, and this is one of the main reasons why they turned to it for inspiration. Introducing capsules in the layer itself is not a new idea. Research teams the world over tried to implement them, but they all ran into the same obstacle â€" the size of ...

Now a happy mother to a gorgeous baby girl and in a committed relationship with one of the most appreciated male models of the moment, Gabriel Aubry, Berry sticks to the promise she made herself back then by promising never to marry again. In a new interview with the British tab the Daily Mail, the actress says that, while she has everything in life she could have asked for, marriage still remains off her priorities list. Twice a divorcee, she has learned her lesson that nothing lasts “for ever,” so she chooses instead to live her life and enjoy every minute of it without being tied to another person by marriage. In all fairness, she does have plenty to enjoy, as she puts it herself: a gorgeous man with whom she connects on all levels and a gorgeous daughter. “I’m so not the relationship!

Spectrobes is a video game developed by Jupiter and published by Disney for the hugely successful Nintendo DS handheld platform. The title was released on March 13, 2007 in North America and Japan and on March 16, the same year, in Europe and other territories. A Collector's Edition of it was also launched at the end of that year.The game tells the story of two junior Interplanetary Patrol officers named Rallen and Jeena, who learn about strange, prehistoric creatures, which are known only as Spectrobes and that possess special powers. The Spectrobes, which are fossilized, hold the key to defeating the villains of the two characters' galaxy, the Krawl, which are vicious and merciless with their opponents.The two heroes embark on a mission to save their home world and, to achieve such a thing, they need to excavate, awaken, train and collect all of the Spectrobes in the galaxy. With over 500 unique creatures, the title uses every feature of the Nintendo DS in order to create!
an all-encompassing gaming experience.“We've experienced tremendous success developing new intellectual properties such as Kingdom Hearts in Japan, and the innovation and style of Spectrobes are a perfect fit for the expertise of renowned developer Jupiter Corporation,” Graham Hopper, senior vice presiden...

--------
Rune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moon is a role-playing video game that features heavy simulation aspects. It was developed by Neverland and published by Marvelous Interactive and Natsume for Nintendo's hugely successful DS handheld video game console. It was first launched in its native Japan on January 3, 2008, and reached North American shores on November 18, the same year. As of yet, the game hasn't been released in Europe or in other territories. The title focuses on delivering a fantasy farm-simulation experience and is part of the very successful Harvest Moon video game franchise, which has sold extremely well on the Nintendo DS in all of its iterations. Rune Factory 2 is, of course, the sequel to the first Rune Factory, which has gained critical acclaim for the introduction of the basic Harvest Moon recipe into a fantasy setting and letting players explore the open world of the game. The title stays true to the Harvest Moon recipe, as in ten seconds, ten in-game !
minutes will pass, a trademark of the series. The player can go on to grow crops, but wielding the farm tools can decrease their stamina. The classic mechanic of buying animals has now been replaced by the task of defeating monsters in dungeons, similar to a lot of RPGs present on the Nintendo DS.

HTTP:: Microbes Make Electricity from Wastewater
--------
Given our seemingly insatiable efficiency in producing garbage and wastes, it may seem inappropriate to leave all these residues simply accumulate in distant places, and not use them to create something. While artists use trash to make impressive sculptures, scientists use them to create electricity, with the help of microbes. The most recent addition to the ranks of helpful microorganisms is Geobacter, a hairy creature that can apparently convert wastewater into electrical current through natural processes. According to the research team behind the find, made up from researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and led by Professor Derek Lovley, the microbe can also use mud as a source of raw materials for consumption. Admittedly, they say, the strain they are using is about eight times stronger than naturally occurring ones, and was entirely created in the laboratory, through careful manipulations of its genes, until the desired end-result was obtained. The n!
ew superbug may be used to create microbial fuel cells in the future, the experts say. Such systems could be installed in average households, and may help offset some of the costs associated with paying the electrical bill, by decomposing the trash that is generated in homes in vast amounts every year.

Canadian mobile phone maker Research In Motion might be on its way to the market with a new BlackBerry handset that would include a front-facing camera, some of the latest reports on the Web are pointing out. It seems that the company is set to unveil something connected with this at the beginning of next year, and it is already working on such a device. According to Tiny Comb, the details come from a RIM executive, who unveiled them at last week’s Fortune Brainstorm. “Video conferencing is something that could completely change the mobile landscape and it is something we have been thinking about and working on for quite some time. You will start seeing something early next year,” RIM's employee stated. Some rumors about the possibility that the BlackBerries would include front-facing cameras emerged in the past as well, yet this time it seems that things are about to become more real than ever. According to the RIM exec, some of the company's carrier partners supp!

HTTP:: Verizon Cuts Smartphone Prices to 99
--------
Mobile phone carrier Verizon Wireless, the largest operator in the country, has recently operated some price cuts for its smartphones. Following the move, its subscribers can now get some of the greatest high-end handsets for under $100, except for two devices, namely the recently launched BlackBerry Tour and the Samsung Saga. According to some voices over the Web, the price cuts might suggest only one thing: the wireless carrier is getting ready to release new smartphones on the market and is trying to clear some inventory in the process. Customers will be those to benefit a lot from the new offer, which places almost all existing smartphones in Verizon's lineup at the $99 price point, upon the signing of a two-year contract agreement. It seems that some of the handsets already rumored to be heading towards Verizon might indeed become available in the near future. As such, the HTC Touch Pro2 might soon emerge to replace the older Touch Pro, which has seen its price drop!
from $419 to $99. In addition, the BlackBerry Storm 2 should be on its way as well, though we might not see it until November, it seems. On the other hand, the new prices might also reflect the recent drop seen by Apple's iPhone 3G, which went down to $99 as soon as the iPhone 3GS became available for purchase. One way or the other...

Development on Google Chrome is going at a steady pace slowly building up to what may be a very good product. While the browser has been launched almost a year ago, has been out of beta since spring and reached its third iteration, at least in the development branch the browser is far from complete. The underlying technology is already solid but the presentation leaves some things to be desired but this is slowly evolving as well with a much improved theming system. The latest developer releases include a new way to install themes inside the browser just by clicking on the links to the theme file. The developers have made a couple of themes available at the Chromium source repository, Camo and Snowflakes, and if you click on the browser will ask you if you want to install the new theme. Chrome has had theme support for a while but installing them was not for the faint of heart as you had to first enable extension support, which is still pretty much in alpha, and them insta!

Of course, it would be expected that this wasn't too much of a problem for most of the ones using the developer builds as these aren't intended for the every-day user but it wasn't an option for the majority of users.

Kids grow up so fast these days, but it seems that they also pick up almost everything they see around them. Such is the case with 7-year-old Weber County resident Preston Scarbrough, who took his family's car on a leisurely Sunday drive. Of course, his skills weren't that up to par, as he blew through a few stop signs and narrowly missed a pedestrian crossing the street. Eventually he was stopped by a Utah police officer, Captain Klint Anderson. The media was soon to pick up on the story, with Fox News being one of the first outlets to interview the officer. The exchange in words was a very interesting one, as the reporter asked just how the kid learned to drive. The officer replied that: “Well, we’re not exactly sure except that his father has grounded him from one of his video games which involves operating vehicles so…” At this point, the reporter immediately inquired whether or not Grand Theft Auto was the title in question. The officer admitted that he didn'!

In an attempt to make its Windows flagship product compliant with the EU antimonopoly regulations, Microsoft announced that the upcoming Windows 7 flavor of the operating system would not include its Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) browser. Dubbed Windows 7 “E,” the OS version was expected to come to the market in the European Union, but it seems that the company changed its plans and will ship the fully packed Windows 7 in the area. Following a recent proposal concerning the inclusion of a “consumer ballot screen” that would enable Windows users to select a Web browser of their choice, and the fact that the European Commission welcomed it, Microsoft has decided to include both IE8 and the ballot screen in Windows 7. Moreover, the same will apply to previously released iterations of Windows already available in the European Economic Area, including Windows Vista (SP2 too) and Windows XP (SP3 too). “I’m pleased to report that we will ship the same version of Windows!

Bethesda is one of the biggest emerging publishers of video games. While at the beginning it focused almost only on titles that were made by its own studio, like The Elder Scrolls series, now it is slowly starting to form partnerships with independent companies, or even acquiring them, as in the case of id Software. One of the upcoming games set to be published by the company is the Arfiticial Mind and Movement-developed WET action game. Set to deliver a highly stylized mix of both action gameplay and acrobatic moves, from the game's main protagonist, Rubi Malone, it is a very interesting new property. Now, the game has also received a concrete release date from the two companies, thus Europeans will be getting their hands on the title on September 18. Coming for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, it will make the day of a lot of gamers, as the great blend of dual pistols and a samurai sword will guarantee some pretty bloody scenes. “We are extremely excited to bring WET !

HTTP:: Efforts Should Be Focused on Improving Existing Solar Technologies
--------
Over the past few years, large amounts of efforts and considerable sums of money were poured by governments into producing new generations and types of solar cells. While this may look like a good thing, industry officials say that the lack of funding for completely developing and scaling up the existing technologies is leaving them in a bit of a mess. The level of performance achieved by current solar-capturing methods is advanced enough to merit more attention and support from governments, which now seem bent on innovating the industry with complete disregard of existing achievements. These were some of the viewpoints expressed by attendants at a symposium organized last week by the National Academies, in Washington DC, in which representatives from major solar-panel manufacturers and academics participated. The main topic of the discussion was the scaling up of the solar industry, as in if this was required to continue at an alert pace or not. “This is such a fast-mo!

We're answering the questions from 5, 10, 15 years ago in a world where things have really changed,” the Director of the George Washington University Solar Institute, Ken Zweibel, said.

HTTP:: Milky Way 039 s Mysterious Radiations Not Caused by Dark Matter
--------
According to scientists who went through the massive volumes of data beamed back by the European Space Agency's (ESA) Integral observatory, the peculiar radiations that permeate our galaxy, the Milky Way, are not caused by the elusive dark matter, as previously believed. These types of radiations were identified for the first time in the 1970s, and researchers have since proposed a number of theories trying to explain them, including dark matter. However, the advanced observation abilities of the satellite have shown that this is not the case, and that the radiation exhibits a spike towards the center of the galaxy, with an asymmetry along the galactic disk, ScienceDaily informs. The observatory has unprecedented spatial and spectral resolution for an instrument of its kind, and the amount of data it collected â€" that led to the new study â€" cannot be misinterpreted. Some astronomers believed that dark matter was responsible for the weird readings because of its traits, !
which include exerting a strong gravitational pull on all galaxies in the Universe. Other telescope data seem to point at the fact that the elusive matter, which has thus far avoided detection, also forms a halo of sorts around the most massive galaxies, such as our own.

While online services can make or break a console these days, only Microsoft and Sony have really taken on each other in an arms race and are trying to implement every new feature into their Xbox Live and PlayStation Network services. Nintendo has, for the most part, been content with releasing WiiWare and steadily revealing small downloadable games that didn't really gain a lot of success. This is why most Wii owners “don't even think about going online” with their console, at least according to Team17 studio director Martyn Brown, who talked to VideoGamer about online services and how his company's upcoming new Worms game and Alien Breed: Evolution titles are download-only. While the Worms franchise already made an appearance on the Wii, thanks to the THQ-published Worms: A Space Oddity, Brown did mention that a WiiWare download-only title would soon appear for the small but extremely popular white console. Until then, Nintendo has to re-educate its users in terms o!

President Barack Obama reasserted his trust in science as the only means of averting future economic crises in his radio address on Saturday, saying that long-term investments in research were the only things that could ensure a sustainable and strong economy. Results will not be visible right away, and the fact that average citizens, and indeed investors too, want to see immediate results and returns for their money only hinders innovation. Some important research projects get little funding precisely because they could take ten to 20 years to complete, and few people are willing to take that investment risk upon themselves. “We need to recapture the spirit of innovation that has always moved America forward. That means once again having the best-educated, highest skilled workforce in the world. That means a health care system that makes it possible for entrepreneurs to innovate and businesses to compete without being saddled with skyrocketing insurance costs,” Obama!
said on his radio address. “That means leading the world in building a new clean energy economy with the potential to unleash a wave of innovation â€" and economic growth â€" while ending our dependence on foreign oil.
