Pepsi drops horse show after video of animal abuse
2012-05-18 05:43:00 Soft drink maker Pepsi said on Thursday that it was dropping sponsorship of a prestigious national horse show, one day after ABC News broadcast footage of a horse in training for a show being beaten by a trainer. The Walking Horse National Celebration said that Pepsi had been a sponsor since 2010 of the nation's leading competition for Tennessee Walking Horses, a breed known for its high-stepping gait. "We have ended our sponsorship of the event," Pepsi spokesman Vincent Bozek said on Thursday without elaborating. ...
Snap Judgments: REVOLUTION, GO ON, THE NEW NORMAL, ANIMAL PRACTICE, GUYS WI
2012-05-14 23:07:00 REVOLUTION According to the Official NBC Description: Our entire way of life depends on electricity. So what would happen if it just stopped working? Well, one day, like a switch turned off, the world is suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Planes fall from the sky, hospitals shut down, and communication is impossible. And without any modern technology, who can tell us why? Now, 15 years later, life is back to what it once was long before the industrial revolution: families living in quiet cul-de-sacs, and when the sun goes down, the lanterns and candles are lit. Life is slower and sweeter. Or is it? On the fringes of small farming communities, danger lurks. And a young woman’s life is dramatically changed when a local militia arrives and kills her father, who mysteriously – and unbeknownst to her – had something to do with the blackout. This brutal encounter sets her and two unlikely companions off on a daring coming-of-age journey to find answers about the pa...

Lessons From an Animal
2012-02-05 19:05:00 We humans are impatient with everything. We want instant solutions to everything- jobs, money, career skills, marriage, health…When something goes wrong, or doesn't work out well, we are frustrated, have a bout of depression, trauma, and what not.Recently, I learnt a lesson in patience from a neighbor. It was an animal, a female dog. Every year, she gets pregnant and gives birth. The births occur during the winter, and sadly, few pups survive the intense Delhi cold which dips down to 3 degrees Celsius.Last year, I had seen her with a fresh litter, cuddled under the staircase of a building. People did provide blankets and food, but only one survived. It was too sad to see the tiny pups lying dead, the lone survivor moving over their bodies. The mother was unusually silent, weeping out her sorrow in a corner. She didn't usually allow anyone to pass that way, but that day, she didn't even lift up her head. Perhaps she was angry with us humans for not providing a shelter, for not p...

Animal Study May Explain Link between Prenatal Infection and Schizophrenia
2011-11-16 06:31:00 New findings show prenatal infection - a known risk factor for schizophrenia - can cause changes in the brain and behavior comparable to certain aspects of schizophrenia. The animal study shows that prenatal infection decreases functioning in key brain chemical receptors vital for long-term memory. The findings were presented at Neuroscience 2011, the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience and the world?s largest source of emerging news about brain science and health. Schizophrenia is thought to reduce the function of proteins important in brain cell communication called N-methyl-D- aspartate receptors (NMDAR). The new study, led by Melissa Burt, at McGill University, suggests prenatal infection could lead to schizophrenia by decreasing NMDAR function. To simulate prenatal infection, the researchers administered a bacterial toxin to pregnant rats. When the offspring reached adolescence, they showed reduced NMDAR function in the hippocampus, a br...

WSU researchers demonstrate rare animal model for studying depression
2011-10-24 17:24:00 Washington State University researchers have taken a promising step toward creating an animal model for decoding the specific brain circuits involved in depression. By electrically stimulating a brain region central to an animal?s primary emotions, graduate student Jason Wright and his advisor Jaak Panksepp saw rats exhibit a variety of behaviors associated with a depressed, negative mood, or affect. ?We might now have a model that allows us to actually know where to look in the brain for changes relevant to depression, and we can monitor how activity in these regions change during states of negative affect and the restoration of positive affect,? says Wright. ?There are no other models out there like this.? The researchers caution that their work comes with a variety of caveats and that there are still many factors that need to be evaluated.
