Container Home Plans:- Container home plans are the new concept which has suitably gained much popularity and public interest in many countries. Building a Container Home Plan is very easy and with the obvious economic benefits, the green eco-friendly practices of recycling and sustainability quality which can create a lot of opportunity for modern architects and builders who want to develop and improve the concept of container home plans. Container housing plan is very beneficial than our conventional housing because after two or three years it can be bought at an economical price. Now because of its affordable and strong feature to become the framework for a house, steel container home and shipping container home are the most wanted for the home builders.

Steel container house:

It is a form of functional steel container home which is consists with steel intermodal container architecture.

Shipping container house:

Shipping containers were invented in 1950 and today it helps to transport various goods to any part of this world. Shipping container houses are able to create a very much affordable place to live and provide an economic, sociological climate to those people who are looking for much simple, less expensive place to live. An important advantage is that, rather than trashing them it can be used to build a strong and recycled structure. This shipping container homes made with steel helps to create a flexible and strong structure which is able to protect from hurricanes, earthquakes and tornadoes. There are scientific proofs that these houses remain stable in winds as strong as 100+ miles per hour, especially when anchored to the ground with supportive devices. But this structure is basically designed to be shipped anywhere in the country. This structure is used in various ways by different people:

Some people use it and transforming them into permanent residences. Others are turning them into temporary living quarters or guest house. Designers help in building it as more as attractive someone wishes for and liveable place with bathrooms, kitchens and living spaces.

Important benefits of having a shipping container house are:

1. Able to resist fire, withstand rain and protects from insect etc.


2. Able to protect form any storms and wind forces.


3. Less expensive than the same structured traditional wood houses.


4. Easily expendable in size and height.


5. Can be shipped in any place by ships, trucks or rail, because they are shaped in a slandered shipping size.


6. Environment friendly and made with the material which can be recycled.

A home made with shipping containers is a great solution for homes in rural areas. Its extendable feature and customization quality is highly beneficial which will help to produce its final look with an appropriate artistic texture. Generally these houses made with corrugated steel with tubular steel frames and welds are water-proof.

There are some disadvantages of it:

1. Steel is good conductor of heat, so if temperature is hot enough then problems can occur.


2. Size and weight of the container.


3. Container can be damaged by friction, collisions and other forces of heavy loads during transit.

In spite of these few disadvantages container home plans is always considered a good idea these days and trusted by many.

New research suggests human papilloma virus increases risk of oesophageal cancer

Updated July 25, 2013 10:25:18

New research suggests the human papilloma virus (HPV) could significantly increase the risk of oesophageal cancer.

Scientists at the University of New South Wales have published research showing people with the virus are three times more likely to develop oesophageal cancer.

Professor Ian Frazer, whose research linked HPV with cervical cancer, says his vaccine - known as Gardisil - could help in the treatment of other cancers caused by HPV.

"We're gradually realising that papilloma virus is a lot more than just a virus that causes cervical cancer," he said.

"Members of the papilloma virus family contribute to a number of cancers, including cancer of mouth and throat and cancer in some parts of the skin.

"I am surprised that we keep finding new ones, but the nature of the virus is such that it's likely to promote cancer anywhere it affects."

HPV does not cause cancer for everyone. Some people will only get symptoms like genital warts.

Others with the infection will notice no symptoms.

Professor Raina McIntyre, who led the University of NSW's research into HPV and oesophageal cancer, says HPV may be passed on by oral sex.

"That is one of the theories," she said.

"Certainly it has been found in the oral cavity ... and there's been a recent study that's come out by another group overseas which shows that the vaccine prevents virus acquisition in the mouth.

"That's the obvious theory of how it gets in there."

Professor McIntyre says oesophageal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death around the world.

"It's the most common type of cancer worldwide and in some countries like China, South Africa and Iran, it's actually one of the leading causes of cancer deaths," she said.

"In other countries like Australia it's a fairly rare cancer but it's a cancer that has a very high fatality rate."

Professor Frazer says he will investigate a link between the papilloma virus and skin cancer.

"We're very interested in the common skin cancer that occurs in Australia," he said.

"We know that sunshine is an important contributing factor to that but many people who get exposed to the sun do not get these cancers and we're interested in seeing if the papilloma virus is adding to the burden."

Penn State to start 2014 season in Dublin against Central Florida

Penn State's much-hyped Ireland game against Central Florida has been finalized, according to a report from the Orlando Sentinel, and is scheduled played at Croke Park in Dublin next year.

Paul Tenorio of the Orlando Sentinel wrote that the organizers of the football game would make an official announcement Sunday, revealing other details such as travel packages. A Penn State spokesperson said Penn State did not comment on any future football games until contracts have been signed.

The Irish Times also reported that details of this matchup would be presented in a few days.

The Ireland game was one of the foremost topics on the Penn State coaches caravan in May, and head coach Bill O'Brien said then the game was close to being finalized and likely would be the season opener.

The game is seen as an alternative to a bowl for Penn State, which won't be eligible for the postseason the next three years because of NCAA sanctions.

O'Brien and Central Florida's coach, George O'Leary, have Irish heritage and, from 1998 to 2002, O'Brien coached on O'Leary's staff at Georgia Tech.

?

NOTE -- Penn State tight end Kyle Carter has been selected as a candidate for the 2013 John Mackey Award, presented to the nation's best tight end. Carter, a sophomore, was second on the team in receptions and receiving yards, finishing with 36 for 453 yards. He had two touchdowns but missed three games because of injury.

Ariane 6 rocket design selected

9 July 2013 Last updated at 06:16 ET By Jonathan Amos Science correspondent, BBC News

The basic design for Europe's next generation rocket, the Ariane 6, has been selected.

It will be powered by two solid-fuelled lower stages and incorporate the liquid-fuelled upper-stage currently being developed as an upgrade for the existing Ariane 5 vehicle.

The concept was chosen following six months of trade-off studies.

Member states of the European Space Agency approved Ariane 6 development at a ministerial council last November.

Esa governments expect the new launcher to enter service at the start of the next decade.

The 6 will have less lifting capacity than the five - some 3-6.5 tonnes to the high orbits occupied by telecoms satellites, versus the 11.5 tonnes the 5 will have after its upgrade.

But the 6 will launch just one spacecraft at a time, not the two routinely orbited by the 5 now.

Also, the primary driver to a new configuration is the desire to reduce costs of manufacture and operation.

Ariane 5, although remarkably reliable and successful, is priced above its competition.

Ministers fear the vehicle's current market dominance will be eroded over time unless a cheaper approach is adopted.

The goal is to try produce and launch a rocket for no more than about 70m euros (?60m/?90m).

The 6 hopes to achieve this by slimming down the production consortium, which is spread across the continent, and by including fewer, less complex components in the build itself.

The baseline configuration is what is termed "PPH", where the "P" stands for "poudre" (or "powder" in English) to indicate solid propulsion, and where "H" stands for "hydrogen", to indicate the use of super-chilled liquid propellants.

In the 6, the first stage will have a line of three motors, each loaded with 135 tonnes of solid propellant, to lift the vehicle and its payload off the pad.

The in-line trio of motors will burn for a few minutes before separating and falling away. A second solid stage will then ignite and lift what remains of the vehicle into space.

This too will separate once exhausted, to allow the liquid-fuelled Vinci upper-stage to complete the task of placing the satellite in its final intended orbit.

Unlike the current Ariane 5 upper-stage, Vinci will bring itself out of the sky after the mission to limit the amount of junk circling the Earth.

The clam-shell fairing which protects the payload during the early phases of the ascent will have a diameter of 5.4m - the same as Ariane 5.

Esa says the Ariane 6 will build on the advances made by European industry in recent years, and will benefit from synergies with its newly introduced Vega rocket.

This is much smaller than Ariane but uses a lot of solids knowhow, and is manufactured with composite techniques the 6 would hope to copy.

Ariane 5 was introduced in 1996. After some early failures it has become the main means by which commercial telecoms satellites - the platforms that relay TV, phone and internet traffic - get into orbit.

Flying out of its Kourou base in French Guiana, the rocket also lifts the ATV space truck, the largest cargo vessel supplying the International Space Station.

And in 2018, Ariane 5 is scheduled to launch the James Webb Space Telescope, the $10bn (?7bn/8bn euros) successor to the Hubble observatory.

A site at Kourou for the 6's new pad has already been identified.

Ford F-250 pickup -- the new favorite of auto thieves

automobiles

Paul A. Eisenstein The Detroit Bureau

28 minutes ago

VarnHagen, Sam / AP

In this March 2, 2010 photo provided by Ford Motor Co., the 2011 Ford F-250 Super Duty is shown. This truck just topped the list of the most stolen vehicles in America

The big Ford F-250 pickup has become the favorite of U.S. car thieves, replacing the Cadillac Escalade, the luxury SUV that had topped the theft chart for nearly a decade.

But although the big Caddy fell to only sixth place in the annual survey by the Highway Loss Data Institute, Cadillac?s parent General Motors still had eight of the top 10 spots in terms of theft claims.

Pickups, in particular, proved extremely popular with thieves during the 2010 to 2012 period covered by the new study, accounting for the first five vehicles on the list. Following the four-wheel-drive crew cab version of the F-250 were:

* The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 crew cab;

* The Chevrolet Avalanche 1500;

* The GMC Sierra 1500 crew cab; and

* The Ford F-350 pickup

The rest of the top 10, in order, were the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, extended cab, GMC Yukon and Chevrolet Tahoe.

The fact that the Escalade fell so sharply after leading the theft list since 2003 may be a positive sign for an embarrassed GM, which has promised to improve its anti-theft technology ? something it plans to integrate into new versions of the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups for the 2014 model-year.

?General Motors has put a lot of effort into new anti-theft technology, so that may help explain the decline in the Escalade?s theft rate,? said HLDI vice president Matt Moore, who cautioned that, ?On the other hand, sales of the Escalade have fallen in recent years, so there may be less of a market for stolen Escalades or Escalade parts.?

(Heads-Up! New Tech Lets Drivers Keep Their Eyes on the Road)

Ford, meanwhile, contends that it is also taking steps to reduce thefts with new technologies.

Nonetheless, the F-250 had a claim frequency of nearly six times the average for all vehicles sold in the U.S., or seven per 1,000 insured vehicle years, according to HLDI. That?s the equivalent of having seven vehicles stolen out of every 1,000 over the course of a year.

In terms of the average loss payment per theft claim, the F-250 came in at $7,060, second only to the F-350 at $7,517 among the 10 most stolen vehicles.

Then again, the average payment came to $13,803, HLDI reports, for the Audi A4 sedan. But insurance companies don?t pay out very often on that model, which had the third lowest theft rate according to the new study.

The bottom five most stolen vehicles, with just 0.4 thefts per 1,000 insured vehicle year were, the Dodge Journey 4WD, the Volkswagen Tiguan 4WD, the Audi A4 sedan, the Acura RDX and the Toyota Matrix.

To a large degree, the vehicles at the top of the theft chart are higher-volume vehicles that thieves find they can either sell whole or strip for parts. Those at the bottom are either relatively unpopular products or lower-volume luxury models, such as the Audi A4. But there also are some more popular vehicles, like the Honda CR-V, ranked seventh from the bottom, that may benefit from improved anti-theft technologies.

Automotive immobilizers, designed to prevent a vehicle from being hot-wired, were standard in 89 percent of all vehicles sold in the U.S. in 2012, the last of the three years covered by the latest theft study.

Nonetheless, a separate report released a week ago by the National Insurance Crime Bureau found that the national rate for car theft rose 1.3 percent in 2012, largely led by California and other western states. It was the first increase the NICB has reported in eight years.

The average theft rate for all vehicles, HLDI notes, was 1.2 per 1,000 insured vehicle years, and the typical claim payout came to $6,532.
