Antioxidants in Midwestern black raspberries influenced by production site
Black raspberries have been studied for decades by scientists and medical researchers interested in the fruits' apparent ability to limit the onset or severity of degenerative diseases, including cancer. view more (2009-02-27)
New Zealand breeding program creates new red raspberry variety
A horticultural research team from New Zealand and Canada has introduced a new red raspberry cultivar. 'Moutere' is a new floricane fruiting red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) created in a planned breeding program at The Horticulture and Food Research Institute of New Zealand Limited (recently renamed The New Zealand Institute of Plant and Food... view more...

Does racial stereotyping still occur in psychiatry?
Ten years ago, psychiatrists rated black male patients as potentially more violent than white patients. A study in this week's BMJ asks does such racial stereotyping still occur? A postal questionnaire, concerning the first presentation of a young man at casualty, was sent to 1000 British psychiatrists. It included a photograph, brief history, and... view more... (2001-10-17)
Ethnicity important factor in rates of gonorrhoea and chlamydia infections
Rates of gonorrhoea and chlamydia are about three times as high in black Caribbeans as they are in black Africans, shows a study in Sexually Transmitted Infections. Cases of gonorrhoea and chlamydia, recorded at 11 sexual health clinics in Lambeth, Southwark, and Lewisham Health Authority for the years 1994 and 1995, were studied. Ethnic group was... view more... (2001-02-02)
Biggest 'small' black hole discovered
Discovery of the largest example of a "small" black hole - one formed from the collapse of a single massive star at the end of its lifetime - has led scientists to revaluate of how black holes come into being, according to a report in Nature. view more (2007-10-22)
Black pudding may interfere with cancer screening test
Eating black pudding may interfere with a screening test for colorectal cancer, claim researchers in this week’s Christmas issue of the BMJ. view more (2002-12-18)
A Very Massive Stellar Black Hole in the Milky Way Galaxy

Cookie cutter in the sky
Black holes can now be thought of as donut holes. The shape of material around black holes has been seen for the first time: an analysis of over 200 active galactic nuclei-cores of galaxies powered by disks of hot material feeding a super-massive black hole-shows that all have a consistent, ordered physical structure that seems to be independent... view more...

Science Of Strawberries
Goran Ivanisevic's offer to serve strawberries at this year's Wimbledon may be a more useful job than he imagined. As well as delicious with cream, this symbol of the summer could help fight cancer according to scientists. Research has shown that natural plant chemicals in strawberries can inhibit the growth of cancer cells. And now scientists at... view more... (2003-06-19)
The Last Cry Of Matter
'Black holes' are truly black. When an object gets within a certain distance from a black hole, it will get swallowed forever with no chance to escape. That includes light, which means that black holes do not shine. How do astronomers detect black holes if they are unable to see them? Well, to be precise, astronomers do not detect black holes.... view more... (2003-11-27)
No matter their size black holes 'feed' in the same way
Research by UK astronomers, published today in Nature (7th December 2006) reveals that the processes at work in black holes of all sizes are the same and that supermassive black holes are simply scaled up versions of small Galactic black holes. view more (2006-12-07)
NASA's Chandra finds black holes are 'green'
Black holes are the most fuel efficient engines in the Universe, according to a new study using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. view more (2006-04-25)
UI researchers discover star orbiting a 'medium-sized' black hole
University of Iowa researchers have found a star orbiting a "medium-sized" black hole - about 1,000 times more massive than the sun - in the nearby starburst galaxy M82, a development that may help explain how medium-sized black holes form and evolve. view more (2006-01-06)

Pushing black-led arts into the spotlight
Propelling black performers from the sidelines into the mainstream is the mission of Push, a black-led, multidisciplinary arts organisation based in London. With a Fellowship of £74,820 from NESTA (the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts) - which backs UK innovation - Push will build on their considerable successes in... view more...

ESA finds a black-hole flywheel in the Milky Way
Far away among the stars, in the Ara constellation of the southern sky, a small black hole is whirling space around it. If you tried to stay still in its vicinity, you couldn`t. You`d be dragged around at high speed as if you were riding on a giant flywheel. In reality, gas falling into the black hole is whirled in that way. It radiates energy,... view more... (2002-04-26)
Black women have urinary incontinence less than half as often as white women
The good news for black women: They have less than half the chance of developing urinary incontinence as do white women, according to a new study from the University of Michigan Health System. view more (2008-04-23)
Flares illuminate the secret life of a quiescent black hole
Astronomers probing the intimate details of apparently quiescent stellar black holes have discovered that in reality they are dynamic, lively places, subject to flares that briefly illuminate the whole of the gas disc around the black hole. Their observations are helping to build up a picture of precisely where X-rays are generated in the gas as... view more... (2002-04-04)
Chandra data reveal rapidly whirling black holes
A new study using results from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory provides one of the best pieces of evidence yet that many supermassive black holes are spinning extremely rapidly. The whirling of these giant black holes drives powerful jets that pump huge amounts of energy into their environment and affects galaxy growth. view more (2008-01-11)
A hidden twist in the black hole information paradox
Professor Sam Braunstein, of the University of York's Department of Computer Science, and Dr Arun Pati, of the Institute of Physics, Sainik School, Bhubaneswar, India, have established that quantum information cannot be 'hidden' in conventional ways, or in Braunstein's words, "quantum information can run but it can't hide." view more (2007-02-28)
