Scientists at the University of Haifa, in Israel, have recently determined that the hormone that has been primarily been associated with love – oxytocin – also plays an important part in bolstering negative states of mind. In other words, the chemical is able to make people feel empathy, trust, and generosity, but can also trigger adverse feelings such as jealousy and gloating. The person’s state of mind at the time seems to be the only thing that determines whether oxytocin will act positively or negatively.
“Subsequent to these findings, we assume that the hormone is an overall trigger for social sentiments: when the person’s association is positive, oxytocin bolsters pro-social behaviors; when the association is negative, the hormone increases negative sentiments,” UH expert Simone Shamay-Tsoory, who was the leader of the new research. Details of the recent scientific investigation were published in the latest issue of the respected scientific journal Biological Psychiatry,… (Read the rest of this article at the following article source link for the full story)
Sony Ericsson Xperia ‘Pureness’ is the only handset that is not a smartphone and which the Japanese-Swedish mobile phone maker has included in its XPERIA series of devices. However, the mobile phone is special in itself, as it is the first device to come to the market with a transparent display, thus deserving the Xperia moniker added to its name.
The joint-venture announced the device officially a while ago, and now it has been seen on the Canadian Sony Ericsson website, which can only suggest that we’re to expect a soon-to-come launch in the country. Nothing is yet official, but it might not be too long before the handset is announced as being launched in Canada via one of the carriers in the country.
Even so, the actual release on the market might not come around until 2010 is here. Sony Ericsson is already known to be a little late to the party, when it comes to launching its new devices, and the stylish candybar phone won’t be an exception. However, Canadian mobile phone… (Read the rest of this article at the following article source link for the full story)

Scientists at the American space agency are currently getting ready to perform a new series of radiation tests on a group of squirrel monkeys. The study will attempt to determine the possible effects that prolonged radiation exposure may have on astronauts during long-duration spaceflight to other planets, such as to Mars, for instance. The animals will be exposed to gamma-rays, the most powerful type of radiation in the Universe, composed of the most energetic type of photons, Space reports. The new instance would be the first in decades when NASA experiments on animals.
In the early days of the space program, in the early 1950s, it was common practice at the space agency to test various aspects of orbital journeys on monkeys. At the time, the public opinion was influenced by the fact that the Russians were way ahead of the United States, and as such needed to be caught up with. Additionally, no one was really interested with animal welfare at the time. More recently, NASA has… (Read the rest of this article at the following article source link for the full story)

My first battle with a Revenant in Dragon Age took no less than 2 hours. No, it was not all one long epic, drawn out as we slugged it out toe to toe, with the best man winning and the representative of Evil being taken down. It was more a succession of replays of the same sequence, with me in the role of the increasingly frustrated gamer who does not know why the game he’s playing and loving is punishing him so hard, without at least having the common courtesy of offering a small warning, like “Very though battle ahead, get supplies and only then proceed.”
After a lot of repeats, changed character tactics, shuffled behaviors, increased use of spells, better application of magic enhancements, and a few Acid Bombs, the manifestation of Evil was defeated and I could get on with my quest. And I felt a lot of pride at my accomplishment, even if the Revenant was not marked as being one of the real bosses of Dragon Age: Origins, but more like one of the tougher common foes. He did not… (Read the rest of this article at the following article source link for the full story)
