How do we get birthmarks?
|
What are birthmarks?\nBirthmarks are colored marks on the skin that are present at birth or develop shortly after birth. They can be many different sizes, shapes, and colors, including brown, tan, black, blue, pink, white, red, or purple. Some birthmarks appear on the surface of the skin; some are raised above the surface of the skin; and some are located under the skin. \n\nWhat causes birthmarks?\nIt is not clear why some children have birthmarks and others do not. Some birthmarks appear because a child has extra color (pigment) in his or her skin. Other birthmarks appear because a child's blood vessels did not develop normally or are grouped together too closely. Many folktales and myths exist about the causes of birthmarks, but none has been proven to explain the true causes of birthmarks.\n\nWhat kinds of birthmarks are there?\nSalmon patches (also called stork bites, angel kisses, and macular stains). Salmon patches are thin, flat, light pink or red birthmarks. They occur most frequently on the back of the neck, the upper eyelids, upper lip, or between the eyebrows.\nCongenital moles (nevi). Congenital moles can appear anywhere on the body. They vary in size and shape, and are generally brown in color.\nCafé-au-lait spots. Café-au-lait spots are smooth, generally oval birthmarks. They range in color from light brown to chocolate brown and are usually found on the torso, buttocks, and legs.\nMongolian spots. Mongolian spots are smooth, brown or blue-gray birthmarks. They usually are irregular in shape and are commonly found across the lower back and buttocks.\nHemangiomas. Hemangiomas are raised, blue, red, or purple birthmarks formed by a clump of immature blood vessels. They can be many sizes and shapes and are found both on the surface of the skin and deeper in the body.\nPort-wine stains. Port-wine stains are birthmarks that are pink-red at birth and then become a darker red-purple color. Port-wine stains are formed by blood vessels that did not develop properly. They can be small or they can cover a large area of the body.\nDo birthmarks need to be treated?\nMost birthmarks are harmless and need no treatment. They often fade or disappear as a child grows older.\n\nA birthmark that causes problems with sight, breathing, hearing, speech or movement may need treatment. Birthmarks that are found on internal organs always need treatment and may be associated with more serious problems. Treatment is most common for hemangiomas and port-wine stains and can include corticosteroids, laser therapy, and surgery. \n\nSometimes the appearance of a large birthmark can make a child or the parents of a child feel shy or self-conscious. In some cases, makeup or hairstyles can hide birthmarks. Counseling and/or support groups may also help with any emotional issues caused by a birthmark.\n\nIs it important to have birthmarks checked?\nMore than 90% of birthmarks are diagnosed by a careful medical history and physical exam.1 Some birthmarks stay the same as a child grows older, while some birthmarks fade or disappear. Others grow quickly over a short period of time. Although most are harmless, all birthmarks or any changes in a birthmark need to be checked by a health professional.

Duncan and others rushed to help a pregnant woman who fell .
They didn't know that she was infected with Ebola .
Many of them contracted the virus, and some of them died .

Monrovia, Liberia (CNN) -- His home in Monrovia is just as he left it when he boarded the plane to the United States. A tiny tin-roofed room in a run-down building that's now the focal point of so much of the paranoia ricocheting across the world. But while the United States struggles to contain the fear stirred up by Thomas Eric Duncan's diagnosis in Dallas, here there's a different concern. Here, they are struggling to come to terms with the mounting death toll of all those who -- like Duncan -- came in contact with the pregnant woman who gave him Ebola. Already nine others are dead or dying. All the neighbors have been put quarantined. And local officials are trying to get in touch with everyone who may have interacted with the pregnant woman, Marthalene Williams. That number? "Right now, according to statistics that we got, close to 100," says Pewo Wolobah from the local Ebola task force. Desperation and despair . Here in Monrovia, like in several African hotspots, the challenge of containing the virus is staggering. The disease has killed more than 3,400, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. Liberia has been hit the worst -- with 2,069 dead. Hence, the desperation and despair in the homes along 72nd SKD Boulevard. Ebola spreads exponentially. If any of those people had direct contact with Williams' saliva or other bodily fluids, they are in danger of contracting the highly infectious disease -- and potentially passing it on. Unsuspecting contact . Marthalene Williams was in her seventh month of pregnancy when she collapsed. Duncan rushed to help. Williams' 12-year-old sister Tete was with him at the time, as were several other people. "We've been through this over and over," Wolobah says. "We tell the people no matter how much you love the person. It is the health authority that is responsible to pick up the sick." But none of them knew Williams had Ebola, Tete says. Both of Williams' parents have tested positive for Ebola. Another woman who also ran to Williams' side was rushed to a hospital days later. Soon afterward, a neighbor was tasked with he difficult task of telling her 9-year-old daughter that mom is never coming home. And Duncan lies in a hospital bed in Dallas, critically ill. All of them contracted Ebola trying to do good. Helping Williams was the right thing to do -- the right thing with devastating consequences. CNN's Nima Elbagir reported from Monrovia; Ben Brumfield wrote from Atlanta .

The silent submarine is the third in Russia's Borei project .
Fleet's first submarine, which cost $770m, was taken on by navy on same day .

By . James Rush . PUBLISHED: . 12:35 EST, 1 January 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 14:17 EST, 6 January 2013 . Russia has begun testing the latest in its fleet of new nuclear submarines nearly seven years after it was started to be built. The silent submarine, the Vladimir Monomakh, which is the third ship in Russia's Borei project, began its sea trials on Sunday as it bids to become fully operational this year. The submarine was laid down at Russia's largest shipbuilding complex Sevmash on the shores of the White Sea in Severodvinsk, northern Russia in March 2006, which, coincidentally, was the 100th anniversary of the Russian submarine fleet. Latest addition: Russia's new Vladimir Monomakh submarine began its sea testing on Sunday . Tests: The submarine is now in the water after building began on it in March 2006 . It has been armed with a new missile system featuring between 16 and 20 Bulava missiles, which are intended to become the cornerstone of Russia's nuclear triad, and is the most expensive weapons project in the country. The submarine is part of a class of cruisers with the latest generation of nuclear reactor, which allows the ship to dive to a depth of 480 meters, www.rt.com has reported. It is also able to spend up to three months in autonomous navigation. The sub forms part of the Borei family of ships, which Russia hopes will provide the basis of its nuclear naval forces over the next few decades. The first of the Borei class is the Yury Dolgoruky, which has reportedly cost $770m and has recently completed its test programme. It was was due to be taken on by the Russian Navy on Sunday. Heavy duty: The submarine has been armed with a new missile system featuring between 16 and 20 Bulava missiles . In a statement on Saturday the Rubin deisgn bureau that designed the submarine said: 'The hoisting of the flag and the signing of the acceptance act is to be adopted at the Sevmash shipyard in Severodvinsk on Sunday, December 30.' Another missile cruiser in the Borei family, the Aleksandr Nevsky, is undergoing tests, Borisov has said. Meanwhile, the Knyaz Vladimir, the fourth, more advanced submarine, is currently being built. The Russians plan to have built ten Borei submarines over the next eight years, according to the state armaments programme of 2011-2020. www.rt.com . High hopes: The Borei fleet is expected to provide the basis of Russia's nuclear naval forces over the next few decades .

How does water conduct electricity?
|
A water molecule contains two elements: hydrogen and oxygen. Both elements have different electronegativities, which is a fancy word meaning how well they can attract electrons. Since oxygen has a higher electronegativity, it forces the electrons of the water molecule toward itself, giving the oxygen element a slight negative charge and the hydrogen atoms slight positive charges.\nBasically speaking, water itself is somewhat charged. This makes water what is called a polar molecule and allows it to conduct electricity. This also accounts for how well water adheres to itself (cohesion).\nHowever, this polarity is relatively small.

Since 1960, "weak governance, chronic insecurity, 5 coups d'etat"

(CNN) -- Citing fears of genocide, representatives of of humanitarian organizations tried Thursday to focus U.S. lawmakers' attention on the Central African Republic, where the situation is on the verge of exploding into a "decades-long conflict," one aid group said. Mercy Corps believes "right now is the time to act, and we are asking Congress to make smart, forward-thinking decisions," said Madeline Rose, a policy adviser to the group, in a telephone interview prior to addressing the House Committee on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on African Global Health, Global Human Rights and International Organizations. The group fears "that the current crisis in CAR is on the verge of metastasizing into a new, decades-long conflict," she added. The landlocked country, which is bordered by Cameroon, Chad, Sudan, South Sudan, Congo, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, has seen nearly constant chaos for a year, since militant rebels removed the president from office and then lost power themselves. Even before that, frail governments and poverty plagued its population. Rose cited five priorities for CAR: . -- restoring security; . -- increasing support for peace-building initiatives; . -- meeting immediate humanitarian needs; . -- targeting interventions to protect and empower women and girls; . -- investing resources to transition to state-building and economic recovery. 5 coups d'etat since independence . The roots of the conflict date back to CAR's independence from France in 1960. Since then, "it's had weak governance, chronic insecurity, five coups d'etat," Rose said. "People have only known violent and oppressive rule. CAR's never really enjoyed a legitimate, civilian administration." Throughout, the country's 5.2 million residents have endured chronic, abject poverty. That underdevelopment has fomented deep distrust among civilians -- whose median age is 19 years. That distrust erupted into violence and the country descended into chaos in March 2013, after a coalition of mostly Muslim rebels known as Seleka ousted President Francois Bozize. They have since been forced from power, but Christian and Muslim militias have continued to battle for control. To counter attacks on Christian communities by Seleka groups, vigilante Christian groups known as the anti-balaka, which translates to "anti-machete," fought back. Muslims represented 15% of the population, and Christians were 50%, according to the CIA World Factbook. The groups have morphed into criminal gangs "that are seizing this opportunity to enrich themselves and to take revenge," said Kasper Agger, a field researcher for the Enough Project, prior to his own testimony to the subcommittee. Battle for resources, not religion . "The most important thing is that people start to understand that this is not necessarily a conflict of Christians versus Muslims, but it's about natural resources" and competition for control of the states, he said. "It's those classic issues that need to be tackled." He called for the United Nations to send mediators to work with interim President Samba-Panza to begin a political process "with local dialogues and reconciliation across the country." In a report issued Thursday by his project, Agger said Seleka leaders were linked to Chadian and Sudanese government-backed armed groups, mercenaries, poachers and diamond traders. "The research reveals that revenues from diamonds and elephant ivory are funding Seleka and other fighters in CAR, enabling them to purchase weapons, fuel, and poaching equipment," he said. "Diamonds mined in CAR are sold to traders in the Darfur region of Sudan, as well as Chad, Cameroon, and the Democratic Republic of Congo." The traders circumvent the international certification process and likely sell their wares on the world market, he added. At least 2,000 people have died in the fighting, and 2.2 million others -- about half the country's population -- need humanitarian aid, according to the United Nations. The world body this week appointed Abdoulaye Bathily of Senegal to lead the U.N.'s political office charged with preventing conflict in the region. He faces a big job: More than 650,000 residents are internally displaced, and nearly 300,000 have fled to neighboring countries. Ban: 'Do not repeat the mistakes of the past' "There's no one that really has any power to stop this," said Agger, who recently spent a month in the country. "It was an almost surreal experience," he said about his visit, most of which was in the capital city of Bangui, where more than 200,000 residents are displaced, many of them living at the airport or in churches. "You could have people going to church and the markets were open and then, in the distance, you could hear shootings," he said. "Almost every night, we could hear shootings around town." The poverty extends to the government, which did not pay its employees for six months, he said. The continuing violence has raised the specter of genocide, as occurred 20 years ago in Rwanda. "Do not repeat the mistakes of the past -- heed the lessons," U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said last month during a visit to the country. "Most members of the Muslim minority have fled. Muslims and Christians have been placed in mortal danger simply because of who they are or what they believe," Ban said. "People have been lynched and decapitated. Sexual violence is on the rise. Gruesome acts have been committed while others cheered on the perpetrators. There has been total impunity -- zero accountability. This must change." International peacekeeping efforts are under way: Some 6,000 African Union troops and 2,000 French forces are operating in the country, as is the first contingent of 1,600 European Union troops. In addition, the United Nations has promised as many as 10,000 military personnel by September 15. More peacekeepers may not be enough . But Mercy Corps' Rose said it was not clear that they would suffice. The AU forces need help, she said. "They don't know what's going on, they don't have good intelligence, and they're not good at communicating with the population," she said. "It's making the community more fearful, particularly vulnerable populations." She said she was hopeful that U.S. lawmakers would act "to address the underlying issues that caused this crisis in the first place." Thursday's appeal to lawmakers is an attempt to give them the big picture about what is happening in CAR. The United States has already committed $150 million to the peacekeeping mission, but that effort requires at least another $100 million, said Catholic Relief Services Chief Operating Officer Sean Callahan. "The world stood by as nearly one million people were killed in Rwanda 20 yrs ago, and we cannot let the violence tear the social fabric of CAR," he said. Rose agreed. "We've seen this over and over again in the way the international community responds to crises like these -- where we focus too narrowly on short-term, emergency needs and don't take a step back to make long-term, strategic investments and decisions about how to solve the root problem." And CAR faces another big challenge: the country has long been geopolitically insignificant to major donor countries. "So we, as a humanitarian and advocacy community, have an uphill battle to make the case as to why this is the smart decision now," Rose said. "But I think it's possible." The challenges are immense. Last week, 16 civilians -- including three national staff members of Medecins Sans Frontieres -- were killed during a robbery on the grounds of a hospital in the northern town of Boguila, said the group, which is also known as Doctors Without Borders. Ex-Seleka members surrounded the hospital grounds, where a meeting was taking place with community leaders invited by MSF to discuss medical access and care, the group said in a statement. "Unprovoked, the men fired heavily into the crowd, killing and critically wounding meeting participants." The incident led MSF to withdraw key staff, suspend activities in the town, where Muslims fleeing violence had sought refuge, and reassess whether to continue operations elsewhere in CAR. The incident reverberated among other humanitarian groups, but UNICEF's Country Director for Central African Republic Souleymane Diabate said he was planning to continue business as usual. "We remained during the crisis, and after the crisis we will remain," he told CNN in a telephone interview from his office in Bangui, where he has been working since 2012. Schools have been closed in the country, so UNICEF has opened "temporary learning spaces" to carry on the teaching. And it has been providing chemicals to treat water nationwide, he said. In recent months, the number of UNICEF staff members has doubled, to more than 200, though many of them work alongside security staff. Still, he acknowledged, "there is some risk."

Why are there never thunderstorms when it's snowing?
|
Not true! There are events referred to as "thunder snow" when there is thunder and lightning while it is also snowing. However, this is less common than during a rain event because of the structure of the storm. Rain events that also have thunder are convective in nature, so they have a lot more vertical motions than stratiform events which are more horizontal. The vertical motions tend to enhance the charge separations in clouds, which causes lightning. Snowstorms are typically stratiform in nature so there is less electrical charge buildup in the storm. Snowstorms can and do have convective cells embedded within them, which can create thunder snow. Proof from the lake effect snow event in Buffalo this week: _URL_0_
