Guesstimate or Guestimate (guess + estimate) - (USA)
A “guesstimate” is a “guess/estimate.” Business and government economic forecasting involves what many call “guesstimates” or “guesstimation.” The word “guesstimate” is cited in print since at least 1904. The 1928 New York (NY) Times credited A. N. Gitterman for introducing a “new word,” but the word was not new in 1928. “Guestimate” has been cited since 1905, but this spelling is used less frequently (perhaps from the similarity to “guest” rather than “guess").

Smart Life Science and Unintelligent Quality System Management - (USA)
Will bioassays and mycoplasma-detection technology run the market distance? There are over 200,000 thousand laboratories in the United States alone1 and additional life science companies also include pharmaceutical, medical device, biotechnology and blood/tissue organizations. Most of these companies are usually respected within their production and sales communities and some companies even rise to the brilliant flavor of scientific ideas that have the potential to affect so many lives for the

UN retreats from science on DDT - (USA)
The New Ledger: For two years the United Nations paid lip service to the truth that the insecticide DDT is a vital component of malaria control, but last week UN abandoned science in favor of superstition. The result is UN promotion of more dangerous and less efficient malaria control techniques. On May 5th, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Environment Program announced plans to reduce DDT use by 30% by 2014 and completely eliminate it by around 2020. In the mean

Recent progress on the Kakeya conjecture - (USA)
Below the fold is a version of my talk “Recent progress on the Kakeya conjecture” that I gave at the Fefferman conference. One of my favourite problems in mathematics is the Kakeya family of conjectures . There are many versions of these conjectures, but one of the simplest to state is the following: Let be a compact subset of which contains a unit line segment in every direction. Then has Hausdorff and Minkowski dimension . Sets which contain a unit line segment

A Christian Perspective of Experiential Family Therapy - (USA)
In his book Man’s search for meaning (1985), Viktor Frankl states that more and more a psychiatrist is approached by patients who confront him with problems that would ideally be handled by a pastor, a rabbi or a priest. They want to know the meaning of life and yet most of them will not agree to be handed over to a clergy. Dr James Beck in his article, the integration of Psychology and Theology: An enterprise out of balance, suggests that “the mental health movement grows because of a relentle

Heavy Metal Packaging - (USA)
Researchers in Argentina have developed a new approach to testing food packaging for trace amounts of the toxic heavy metal cadmium. Cadmium is one of several additives used extensively in the manufacture of plastics. Regulations limit the concentration of cadmium allowable, of course. In the European Union that limit is 100 milligrams per kilogram. But, the toxic metal has a long biological half-life (10 to 30 years) and so essentially accumulates in your body on repeated exposure. Analytic

Nanoparticles Swim, Navigate, Deliver Payloads - (USA)
Professor Ayusman Sen and his team at Penn State University have developed a set of tools to propel nanoparticles through liquid, while delivering chemical payload to specific sites. The techniques may lead to future nanoparticle based localized drug delivery systems. From the report issued by the National Science Foundation: Sen's work is driven by catalysis, the chemical phenomenon whereby a substance accelerates a chemical reaction but emerges unchanged at the end of the process. He and his

The Key to Unlocking DNA from FFPE Tissues - (USA)
Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues are valuable samples that typically come from human specimens collected for examination of the histology of biopsies for the detection of cancer. But each sample contains much more information just waiting to be unlocked. Despite the tiny sample size, DNA can be extracted from the tissue sections and used for a genetic analysis of the tumor and corresponding normal tissue to examine for changes in the patient’s genetic profile as well as for the

Invigorating Acupressure Massage Delivered by Massage Chairs - (USA)
Invigorating Acupressure Massage Delivered by Massage Chairs November 27th, 2008 by Steve Esquire One of the oldest forms of Chinese medicine is acupuncture. The Chinese discovered that the body responded to healing itself when certain trigger points were activated. One branch of this is the use of acupressure in place of needles. Acupressure uses gentle pressure to stimulate the energy flow throughout the body. The most advanced massage chairs have now incorporated many new technologies base

The Day The Earth Stood Still - About The Production - (USA)
Source: 20th Century FoxDirector Scott Derrickson's stylistic approach to the making of THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL was informed by the example set by filmmaker Robert Wise, who directed the original film. "One of things I've always respected about Robert Wise is that there isn't really a 'Robert Wise style,'" Derrickson says. "He didn't impart his style on a film. He put the story first and then built a style out of that story. For this film, I tried to establish a process with the crew that

Sustained Quantum Information Processing Demonstrated - (USA)
Raising prospects for building a practical quantum computer, physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated sustained, reliable information processing operations on electrically charged atoms (ions). The new work, described in the August 6 issue of Science Express,* overcomes significant hurdles in scaling up ion-trapping technology from small demonstrations to larger quantum processors. In the new demonstration, NIST researchers repeatedly performed
