The Great Walrus Move

$

In May 2013, the Horniman Walrus made his way to Margate to feature in the Hayward Touring exhibition Curiosity: Art & The Pleasures of Knowing at Turner Contemporary.

Storified by Horniman Museum & Gardens · Tue, May 14 2013 06:43:29

The famously over-stuffed walrus, weighing in at just under one ton, had been in the Horniman Museum's Natural History Gallery since 1901. Since then, he hadn’t moved more than 25 feet, so getting him out and on his way to the coast was a huge task.

The conservation department worked with specialist art handlers to ensure the move went as smoothly as possible. After all, he is a very important Walrus, to the museum and to our visitors.
Went to see the @HornimanWalrus before his exciting summer jaunt. Happy travels, big fella! s3.amazonaws.com/uploads.hipcha… · Simon Coffey
But everyone down in Margate was equally excited to see him arrive.

Preparations began when the Walrus received his annual clean.
The whole process from this point was captured on film by Acapmedia.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammation of fatty myelin sheaths around the axons of the brain and spinal cord. MS tends to affect the ability of nerve cells to communicate with each other in the brain and spinal cord. MS affects people with random symptoms based on the location and severity of attack. One event can last for days, weeks or months and can affect any part of the body. Symptoms include imbalance, loss of motor function, spasms, numbness, incontinence, and difficulty in swallowing.

There is no known cure for the disease currently and the only drugs available in the market are for delaying the progression of the disease. MS is estimated to affect 2.5 million people worldwide with around 5000 new cases developing each year. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, Multiple Sclerosis Association of America and several others are organizations which are determined to ensure improvement in the lives of affected people to make them more educated and spread awareness of this disease.

Until the last year, the MS drugs market was led primarily by injectables, yet this trend is changing very quickly to give way to oral MS drugs which is expected to grow strongly beginning from 2013. Gilenya and Aubagio are the top current oral drugs in this segment and Biogen’s oral BG-12 and Teva Laquinimod are two other drugs in the pipeline for approval with a significantly higher efficacy to be launched in the next five years. Although oral MS drugs seem to be growing quickly, it is not expected that they would unsettle injectables anytime soon. Several fatal side effects have been linked to use of Gilenya among those who have a heart disease and thus shows that there is still a long way to go for oral MS drugs. Top contenders in this segment till now are Copaxone, Avonex, Rebif, Betaseron, and Tysabri. Most of these drugs work actively to control MS relapses. Other treatments such as stem-cell transplantation are currently under investigation. The process includes the injection of stem cells which will replace the affected inflamed and diseased cells, greatly improving patient’s quality of life.

Abba schrijft themalied voor Songfestival.

Abba kennen we allemaal als winnaar van het Songfestival met het lied 'Waterloo', en natuurlijk ook van hun talloze hits. Na de overwinning van Loreen vorig jaar, zal het festival dit jaar in Zweden plaats vinden, het land van Abba. Voor de gelegenheid kreeg de mannelijke helft van het kwartet het idee om een themalied voor het Songfestival te schrijven, dat de naam 'We write the story' mee zal krijgen. De Zweedse dj Avicii zal het nummer bewerken. Ik ben alvast benieuwd naar het eindproduct van de samenwerking tussen twee van de belangrijkste Zweede exportproducten.

Benfica relinquished first place in the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Saturday, losing 2-1 away to a Porto side that is now a point ahead of the Lisbon giants with only a single match remaining in the domestic campaign.

But while the title might be out of their hands, the Eagles will have a chance to win a third piece of continental silverware when they face Chelsea in the Europa League Final in Amsterdam on Wednesday.

European champions in 1961 and 1962, Benfica have been in six European finals since their historic 5-3 win over Real Madrid but have failed to triumph in any of them—a streak they’ll be looking to end in the Dutch capital.

Chelsea, meanwhile, won the Champions League in Munich last season and are hoping to become the first club to win the continent’s two major prizes in reverse order when they go up against the Portuguese champions.



Led by Students, Estonia Becomes 41st Space Nation

Estonia's first satellite, the student-built ESTCube-1, rocketed into orbit on 7 May 2013 at 05:06, thus making Estonia the 41st nation to have a man-made object in space.

Storified by University of Tartu · Wed, May 15 2013 06:47:48

The satellite was launched from the Guiana Space Centre, carried by the launch vehicle Vega, and accompanied by two other satellites, Europe's Proba V and Vietnam's VNREDSat 1A.
Watch the video of the launch:

The satellite team at the mission control centre in Tartu Observatory closely followed the launch.
In fact, the team gathered at the mission control centre already on Saturday, 4 May, when ESTCube-1 was initially scheduled for launch. 30 minutes before the event, the start time was postponed due to strong winds. 
Radio amateur Dmitri Pashkov was the first one to receive the satellite's radio signals in Ruzaevka, Russia.
ESTCube-1 has already transmitted numerous radio signals. Here are the radio details for all enthusiasts who wish to connect to the satellite.
You can track the satellite position in real time:
ESTCube-1 is now officially listed as an object orbiting the Earth by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD):
The ESTCube-1 team has established a two-way communications with the satellite.

Air date:5/15/2013
Summary:This episode doesn't have a summary yet.

Psych is a quick-witted comedy/drama starring James Roday as young police consultant Shawn Spencer who solves crimes with powers of observation so acute that Santa Barbara PD detectives think he's psychic. Psych also stars Dule Hill as Shawn's best friend and reluctant sidekick, Gus, and Corbin Bernsen as his disapproving father, Henry, who ironically was the one who honed his son's "observation" skills as a child. Also featured are Timothy Omundson, Maggie Lawson and Kirsten Nelson. Using his charm and well-tuned talent, Shawn convinces the cops that he's actually a psychic, and although highly skeptical of his explanation, they hire him to help solve tough cases. With the reluctant assistance of his best friend Gus, Shawn uses his skills of observation and charismatic personality to become the detective he was trained to be, opening his own PI agency - Psych - and solving cases for an ever-suspicious, but grudgingly impressed, police force.

A few reasons to join Twitter if you're interested in a science communication career.

Storified by Eva · Wed, May 15 2013 06:48:38

1. Publishing and communication conferences use Twitter more actively than research conferences do.
....and conference conversation extends beyond the meeting:
The #sci4hels hashtag is used by a group of science journalists who are attending the World Science Journalism Conference to hold online conversations in the months leading up to the conference:
The Science Online conference hashtag is used far beyond the conference itself to alert the community of various opportunities:
2. Journals use Twitter to announce new papers and connect to readers.
3. A virtual portfolio.
You can follow science communicators and be kept up to date of what they're doing...
 ...and interact with them!
4. Regular conversations
A popular publishing-related conversation is around open science and open access.

The #openaccess hashtag usually has interesting news and links.

The Tao of Badass: Reasons That May Lead To Rejection

Storified by Josh Blacker · Thu, May 16 2013 07:09:54

It is a very common thing to get rejected in the game of love. But, sometimes you may not know the exact reason as why you were rejected. Thus, it is essentially important to know the reasons about why you were rejected, so that you would not commit the same mistake again and thus reducing the chances of rejection once more. Well, there are some reasons why men are usually rejected by women.


Most of the times, the men are rejected in their first date just because of their appearance. Most of the men have a common feeling that usually girls are attracted by the dress they were or by how much money they have, but this is not so. Learn all the latest advanced techniques from The Tao System on ItsCharmingTime: The Tao of Badass Review: Does The Tao System Work? The next thing that a woman likes in a boy is their confidence and their behavior. Thus, it is essential for the boy to approach a woman with high confidence and in a very polite manner in the first meeting and therefore, reducing the chances of rejection at the first date. 


Though the woman likes a good confidence, but it should not be that high that good woman mistakes you as a flirt. Thus, it is important to stay within the limits of too much high and too much low.
