Research team members Michael McDonald and Bradford Benson on the discovery of the Phoenix Cluster

A massive galaxy cluster nearly six billion light years from Earth has been discovered with an astounding and unexpected burst of star formation more prodigious than any galaxy cluster yet observed, an international team of astronomers and NASA announced today.

In a wide-ranging discussion on the eve of the announcement, two of the leading astronomers on the project talked about the record-breaking galaxy cluster, called Phoenix, and how its surprising properties are prompting astronomers to re-think how galaxy clusters among the largest structures in the universe form and evolve over cosmic time.

"This discovery in the Phoenix Cluster suggests a whole new twist to how massive galaxies at the center of galaxy clusters grow," said Hubble Fellow Michael McDonald, a researcher at the Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research at MIT and also the lead author of a paper appearing Aug. 16 in the journal Nature. "It allows for another mechanism for the growth of these galaxies. It opens up a whole new area of research."

Bradford Benson, a researcher at the Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics at the University of Chicago and a co-author of the paper, noted that the massive Phoenix Cluster, which is named for the constellation that marks its direction on the sky, was discovered during a survey by the South Pole Telescope. "The Phoenix Cluster stood out as having very high X-ray emission from its center, so much that it made the entire cluster the most luminous X-ray cluster ever observed," Benson said. "That immediately peaked our interest, because it suggested that cool gas was condensing in the center of the cluster."

The prevailing view of astronomers who study clusters has been that their central galaxies are largely dormant, full of old stars and lacking the kind of vigorous star formation that marked their youth. But the central galaxy in Phoenix signaled new star formation.

The research team followed up the initial discovery of Phoenix with observations by numerous telescopes compiling enough data to convincingly conclude that Phoenix was unlike any galaxy cluster ever seen.

"I am a very glass half-full guy," McDonald said. "I immediately thought that it was extremely exciting, and I needed people to reign me in." Still, McDonald noted that to go from the initial excitement of finding evidence for rapid star formation to actual confirmation "required several months of checking results and getting additional data."

McDonald and Benson shared why they think the central galaxy is so active with starbursts, and how they may have caught the galaxy cluster during a brief period that all clusters go through in their evolution although to be sure about that, more data is needed. As for next steps, according to McDonald, "We're going to try to find more clusters, either like this or unlike this. The reason is that it's really hard to draw any conclusion based on one galaxy cluster. So while this is exciting, it doesn't necessarily tell us about the overall evolution of galaxies and galaxy clusters."

Benson said the exciting discovery promises to be a gift that keeps on giving. "Cosmology tries to answer some of the biggest questions about the universe, such as 'How old is it?' and 'How did it evolve?'" Benson noted that studying galaxy clusters helps astronomers better understand those mysteries, such as the nature of dark energy, the unknown force that's causing the universe to expand at accelerating rates. "We want to understand (galaxy clusters) better so we can use them as cosmological tools," he said. "But they are also interesting by themselves."

Naturopathic cancer treatments versus reality ? Respectful Insolence

Well, I?m back.

It?s always a bit weird to try to get back into the swing of things after even just a week off and even when during that week I only slowed down my blogging. I didn?t stop. But I did ignore a fair number of things that normally would have been either the subject of one of my scintillating detailed scientific analyses or the target of a heapin? helpin? of not-so-Respectful Insolence. Usually when I get back from a vacation I like to ease back into my routine. What that usually means is slumming for a day or two before taking on any sort of heavy-duty study or a heavy topic that takes a lot of work and thought. However, my ?slumming? often produces some of my most entertaining posts. After all, no one can say it was hard to take on Rob Schneider or Jim Carrey?s antivaccine nonsense, given how ridiculous and numerous the canards they laid down were. It sure was fun, though. Whether this subject will fall into that category, I don?t yet know. There?s only one way to find out, though.

When I go looking to deconstruct quackery, increasingly as I?ve been in the blogging biz longer and longer it becomes harder and harder to find a quack I haven?t heard of before or to take on pseudoscience I haven?t dealt with before. On the other hand, I see value in repetition sometimes, because the same sorts of ?themes? keep popping up again in quackery and pseudoscience. In particular, when naturopaths want to try to convince the unwary that they are real doctors, that they can function as primary care providers, that their ?discipline? is not a ?one from column A, two from columm B?-style gmish of quackeries taken from virtually all woo known to human beings, all leavened with the occasional sensible advice (such as ?exercise more?), I feel it?s instructive to introduce a naturopath, particularly one I?ve never heard before. That almost never fails to disabuse people of the notion that naturopathy is anything other than a cornucopia of pseudoscience and quackery.

Enter Judy Seeger, ND (which, of course, stands for ?not a doctor?) and her website Colon Cleanse Camp. In particular, Seeger?s been writing a lot about cancer, which is an extra special bonus, given how much naturopaths appear to want to create their own specialty of ?naturopathic oncology.? She?s even been including a lot of videos, because, you know, everything?s more convincing if it has a video to go along with it. YouTube is truth, after all. Everyone knows that, particularly quacks.

So who is Judy Seeger? Well, her bio describes her thusly:

Dr. Judy has been involved in the alternative medicine field for over 33 years. Starting out as a nutritionist, herbalist, consultant, workshop leader.

And:

In 1996 she went back to school to become a traditional naturopathic physician and Natural Health Counselor, then continued learning from world renowned healers like Dr. Bernard Jensen, Dr. John Christopher, Dr. Joel Robbins, and many others.

She even has the chutzpah to call herself a ?Natural Cancer Cure Researcher.? It?s a meaningless claim, of course. Real ?natural cancer treatment? researchers are natural products pharmacologists, and there?s no evidence that Seeger has any such scientific background. She does, however, have a veritable network of websites and webinars, such as the ?ultimate cancer detox secrets,? in which she promises to ?eliminate deadly poisons?in less than 30 days.? Then there?s her Complete Health System, and many others. I could spend several posts going over these websites and videos, but I think I?ll concentrate on the cancer-related ones for now. My attention was first drawn to a video and blog post entitled 5 Cancer Cures That Alternative Medicine Can Guarantee. Yes, any time an ?alternative? medicine practitioner claims to be able to ?guarantee? a cure for cancer, that will catch my attention. Here?s the video:

The first thing I want draw your attention to is something that Seeger writes that I actually almost agree with. Or I could agree with it if she hadn?t screwed it up so much. In fact, it?s the closest thing to a scientifically accurate statement I?ve seen from a naturopath ever. It?s buried in the text but so important that I don?t want to just get to it in due course but rather emblazon a slightly altered version of it on every quack website. No, it?s not a Quack Miranda Warning. Rather, it?s this:

Complementary medicine is based on scientific knowledge whereas alternative medicine is based on clinical or anecdotal evidence.

So close, Ms. Seeger, but yet so far. Actually, ?complementary? medicine is alternative medicine and is not really based on scientific knowledge; it?s just alternative medicine ?integrated? with real medicine, and you all know what happens when you ?integrate? cow pie with apple pie. Here?s a hint: It doesn?t make the apple pie better. In actuality, Seeger?s statement would be better if she had just rephrased it to say:

?Conventional? medicine is based on scientific knowledge whereas alternative medicine is based on clinical or anecdotal evidence.

There. That?s better. It?s true, too. That?s the key difference between quackery and science-based medicine. Quacks rely on anecdotes to ?prove? that their quackery ?works.? Real medicine relies on science in order to actually demonstrate that its treatments work. In fact, Seeger in essence admits that and then asks a pertinent question. At least, it would be a pertinent question if she actually tried to answer it. She doesn?t:

Why use alternative medicine for cancer cures? After all, its not be ?proven? by scientists so how do you know it works?

When you?re frustrated with throwing up from the chemo treatments, losing your hair, and feeling incredibly tired all the time?maybe its time to look at a different option.

The advantages of using Alternative Medicine:

1. guaranteed safe NO side effects ? no harm done
2. guaranteed immune boosters
3. guaranteed easy to use ? comfort of your own home, no doc waits
4. guaranteed more control of your health ? can talk to practioners longer than 10 min
5. guaranteed less invasive

Here are the alternative therapies I?ve used in my
clinics:

• Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
• Colon Hydrotherapy
• Ozone Therapy
• Massage therapy
• Herbal Medicine
• Enzyme Therapy
• Nutrition/juice therapy

Notice how ?Dr.? Seeger asks a totally appropriate question about alternative medicine (?fter all, its not be ?proven? by scientists so how do you know it works??) but then doesn?t actually answer the question. In a classic bit of misdirection, she gives reasons why one might want to try her woo, but none of these reasons actually involve explaining the evidence that her methods work. Not one. Rather, she lists off a bunch of non sequiturs. Sure, there?s little doubt that her woo has fewer side effects (although, given that she advocates colon hydrotherapy and ?enzyme? and ?nutrition/juice? therapy, which when you come right down to it, are basically variants of the Gerson/Gonzalez therapy), even that is arguable. It?s also almost certain that naturopaths can probably see people faster, with fewer waits than real physicians, and most of what they do is probably less invasive.

Who cares, though, if little or none of it actually works? After all, naturopaths love homeopathy, and that?s just water.

Not that that stops Seeger from waxing woo-ish about the various ?specialties? of alternative medicine, ranging from the manipulative therapies to ?energy healing? to herbs and the like and then bragging about how her ?complete healing system? can include all of these. Apparently, she discusses her methods in a radio show with Ty Bollinger, Rashid Buttar, and a number of other ?luminaries? of alternative medicine.

Then there?s this video, How to shrink your malignant tumor:

It?s all nonsense, of course. Seeger claims that vitamin B12 will shrink your tumor (but only ?natural B12,? not synthetic B12). So, apparently, will vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, zinc, and several others. There is, of course, just one problem (well many problems, actually). Vitamin C doesn?t work. It?s no cancer cure. There?s also no convincing evidence that any of these vitamins will actually shrink an existing malignant tumor in humans or impact the natural history fo cancer in any measurable way. True, there is evidence that low vitamin D levels might predispose to cancer, but there?s no convincing evidence yet that adding vitamin D to cancer treatment increases survival. Even if it were to be shown that it can, the effect would likely be small. The same can be said about curcumin.

To Seeger, all of these are ?natural immune boosters? (my favorite meaningless alt-med catch phrase). But most of all, according to ?Dr.? Seeger, you need an ?expert??like Dr. Seeger! After all, she?s been doing this for over 34 years and can create ?step by step? plan for you. Of that, I have no doubt. The problem, of course, is creating a plan that actually positively impacts the natural history of cancer in any meaningful way. Here?s a hint: Food ain?t gonna do it, no matter how much our friend waves her hands and claims that getting the ?right nutrients? into cancer cells will stop them ?dead in their tracks.? Would it were so easy! If it were that easy, scientists would have cured cancer decades ago, and, no, it?s not because scientists are too dogmatically wedded to chemotherapy and surgery as the ?only? ways to treat cancer. Let?s just put it this way. What?s more likely? That a naturopath can teach you how to cure cancer in just 21 days using methods that scientists have not been able to discover?and that she can do it way cheaper, to boot, by designing a ?personalized nutrition program,? giving ?natural therapy recommendations,? and giving ?specific supplement recommendations?? Or that what she?s feeding you is pure black hole density crap?

I can?t help but note that ?Dr.? Seeger claims to have ?worked with thousands of people just like you? but doesn?t provide survival statistics in her practice for specific cancers, which is the minimum data that one should ask of such a practice. Most amusing is that Seeger claims that she only works with those who are ?serious? and ?ready for their healing.?

Perhaps the most disturbing video by Seeger that I saw (and, let?s face it, most of them are disturbing on some level) is this one, Family Cancer: Is It Really Possible to Convince Them About Alternative Therapies?

Basically, it?s a suggested strategy to convince a family member with cancer to try alternative therapy. She describes a family member calling alternative clinics in Mexico, ?gathering information? the way antivaccinationists troll Google looking for ?vaccine information,? and giving all the information to the family member, only to be disappointed when the family member decides to stick with ?conventional? therapy. Seeger then describes sitting down with ?thousands? of cancer patients, looking at ?all the options, both conventional and non-conventional,? after which she asks the cancer patient, ?Do you want to live?? For those who are tired of fighting, she advocates respecting their wishes. Fair enough. But for those who want to fight, she then asks a few more questions, finishing up by demanding of them whether they are completely committed to her plan. This is, of course, the favorite woo-meister technique that allows plausible deniability. If the patient follows the quack?s treatment and dies anyway, obviously that person wasn?t ?dedicated? enough. She doesn?t say it that way, of course. What she does say is that, in essence, it is entirely up to the patient and the family to do everything.

In a way, it?s hard not to stand in awe at how someone like Seeger can believe so much nonsense. It would be amusing if it didn?t endanger cancer patients. Nonetheless, it?s all there, logical fallacies, pseudoscience, appeals to antiquity, relying on anecdotes instead of science, all sold by a naturopath who continually brags about 34 years of experience. Interestingly, Seeger no longer has a clinic, but only operates a consulting business, hence the need for the patient and family to do absolutely everything.

As I?ve said time and time again, science-based medicine has its flaws. It sometimes holds on to old treatments longer than it should based on evidence and sometimes leaps too quickly at new treatments based on insufficient evidence. It?s expensive, and the system that has been built up to administer it is inefficient and unwieldy. Meanwhile pharmaceutical companies can have too much influence. However, the flaws in SBM do not mean that naturopathy or other ?alternative? treatments work. If you want to get an idea of the difference between SBM and naturopathy, you need do no more than look at a naturopath like Judy Seeger, realizing that I?ve only dealt with the tip of the iceberg and that there is still at least one of her videos remaining that probably deserves its own post to deconstruct. You ain?t seen nothin? yet.

homelessness bellmen: Direct Marketing Lists

In the world of marketing and advertising, there are basically three types of marketing that a business can utilize.

• Direct Marketing: Contacting potential prospects directly in person, by phone or by mail with an offer that encourages them to reply. This is usually done with a list of people or businesses that have been sorted by specific characteristics that would make them likely to need, and have a budget for, your product or service.
• Advertising: This includes billboards, ads in periodicals, TV commercials, radio spots, etc. and is usually not targeted at all.
• Online Search Marketing: This type of marketing positions you, either organically or with paid advertising, to be seen by people who are searching online for a product or service that your company provides.

For this discussion, we will talk about the benefits of direct marketing and the importance of using a targeted list in your direct mail or telemarketing campaign, for both business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) marketing.

Consumer Marketing Lists

Businesses that sell to consumers will need to establish the characteristics of a good potential customer. This can be done by analyzing your present customer list in order to find common traits among people who have bought from you in the past. These traits could include things like neighborhood, age, marital status, income, length at their residence, whether they own or rent, the type of property they own, and the value of their property. At AffordableMarketingLists.com, we can help businesses sort their list by these, as well as a variety of other, filters. And we can also give recommendations for which filters would be the best ones to use based on the target audience that the business is marketing to.

Consumer Mailing List vs. Cold Calling List

If you are running a direct mail campaign, we can provide you with a mailing list that includes correct mailing addresses for everyone in a specified area. We can also have the list scrubbed against the National Change of Address database to increase the chances that your mail will be deliverable. A cold calling list is a list of consumers who meet all of your search criteria (age, marital status, etc) and whose phones and are not on the Do Not Call list.

Business Marketing Lists

B2B marketers can segment their lists by filters that will sort businesses by location, size, industry type, number of employees and the type of ownership (sole vs. firm) and type of location (branch vs. headquarters). It can also omit franchises and certain industry codes (for instance, you wouldn?t want to be calling companies that sell what you sell).? In addition if you are a B2B company that requires that you talk to someone in a specific department, AffordableMarketingLists.com can sort your list according to specific job titles, like Controller or HR Executive. Because there is not a Do Not Call list for businesses, a business direct marketing list can be used for either direct mail or cold calling.

Research has shown that there has been a 95% increase in the number of teens who are obese and suffering from various diseases. The main cause to individuals being overweight has mainly been sourced down to the desserts that they eat. For this reason there has been a lot of urge from medical professions to get individuals to eat healthy dessert recipes in comparison to normal ones. The good thing about them is that they are known not to increase your weight as long as they are eaten in proportion. Many doctors are urging everyone, regardless of your age, to switch to recipes for healthy desserts. Consuming desserts on a regular basis takes place in nearly every home. For this reason it is important that we all focus our attention towards eating healthy dessert recipes. There are many reasons why these recipes are better than ordinary dessert recipes.

The good thing about these healthy recipes is that they are known to contain a minimum level of sugar. All of these recipes are known to use some form of alternative in regards to giving the dessert a ?sweet? taste. Most of them are known to use sweeteners or sugar that is recommended for diabetics.

London, UK (PRWEB) August 08, 2012

lunch! the UKs leading trade event for the out of home food and drink industry, has today unveiled its full Working lunch! Theatre line-up for 2012. Running throughout the two day show over 20-21 September at the Business Design Centre in Islington, London, this years sessions have been specifically chosen to enable lunch! attendees to maximise their business opportunities using the latest market trends, plus insights and information from high-profile brands and industry leaders.
