The bid to create a global digital museum ha been welcomed by scientists, who say it will enable them to study valuable specimens that are currently hidden in museum drawers. Museums including London Natural History Museum and the Smithsonian in Washington DC are involved. They have get out ambitious plans to digitise millions of specimens. Digitally recording the 40 million fossils at the Smithsonian will take an estimated 50 years However, five years into the project, the team say is bringing dark date into the light for crucial research

Kathy Hollis from the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, who is leading the project there explained, "We are trying to make our entire collection available digitally for researchers to use online from anywhere in the world. Were pretty sure that this is the largest fossil collection in the world"

For the last majority of the digitisation project museums will capture high quality images and all of the key information-age, species, where the specimen was discovered-to make available online. That alone is valuable-studying digital marine fossils, for example is already enabling researchers to understand how marine life in changing sea level and ocean temperature. However, the most detailed digital date can actually be better than a read fossil

Prof Eaily Rayfield at the University of Bristol uses CT scan of dinosaurs skull and other bones to build computer models for research. Prof Rayfields colleague at Bristol University, Prof Philip Donoghue, uses digital scan of ancient, fossilised microorganisms to produce large-scale versions that reveal far more details about how they lived. He said that a digital fossil would transform scientists ability to study life on Earth

 

What is the purpose of the project?

Last month I went to Banding with my elder brother. We went there by train. We would like to spend our holiday in my uncle house. He, his wife and their only daughter named Alike live in Lembang. My uncle works for a tea plantation company there

On our arrival at the station, my uncle and Alike were already there to fetch us. Then, my uncle drove us to his house. Before going to Lembang, we dropped by at a Sundanese restaurant for breakfast. Alike and l ordered grilled fish with child sauce and fresh vegetables, while my uncle and brother chose to have fried chicken with child sauce. We really enjoyed our breakfast much.

After that, we continued the trip to Lembang. We walked to the marking lot and got in the car. However when my uncle was trying to start his car, the car didn move at all. He tried many times, but failed. Then he asked my brother to check the gasoline, but it was full-tanked. My uncle also checked the machine, but he didn find the problem. My brother and I were getting a bit worried and tired too due to the long trip My uncle saw it and he decided to call a car repair shop

Ten minutes later two repairmen came and started checking and repairing my uncle car. The men looked serious and worked very skilfully. They checked the machine to figure out the problem. After working for a half hour, they managed to repair my uncle car However, there was another problem. My uncle didn bring enough money to pay for the service. Fortunately there was an ate both near the marking lot, so he straightly went there to withdraws a sam of money.

In minutes, everything was done. We all felt relieved Then, we continued the trip to my uncle house. Though we had been through such an uncomfortable incident it didn reduced our excitement to spend the holiday in Lembang, Banding.

What is the text about?

INS Ran of the Eastern Feet baked at Visakhapatnam under the Eastern Nadal Command is on deployment to South East Asian and arrived at the port of Surabaya to participate in the inaugural edition of Indian Navy-Indonesian Navy Bilateral Exercise Samudra Shakti scheduled from 12th to 15th November. The aim of the exercise is to strengthen bilateral relations, expand maritime co-operation enhance interoperability and exchange best practice.

The exercise would start with a Harbour Phase scheduled from 12th to 15th November encompassing planning and briefing on various activities, professional interaction, cross duck visits, sports mixtures and social interaction. This would progress to a Sea Phase scheduled from 16th to 18th November and would included operations such as Joint Manoeuvre, Helicopter Operations, Surface Warfare exercise, saw exercise and Ants Piracy exercises.

The strategic partnership between the two nations was elevated to Comprehensive Strategic Partnership during the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Madi in May and Defence co-operation has been a significant pillar in this partnership.

The visit of the shop seeks to promoted Indies solidarity with Indonesian towards ensuring good order in the maritime womain and to strengthen exiting bonds between the navies of the two nations.

In the ongoing aunt for more effective weapon against malaria, international researchers said Thursday they are exploring a pathway that has until now been little studied- killing parasites in the liver before the illness emerges.

"Its very difficult to work on the liver stages", said Elizabeth Winzeler, professor of pharmacology and drug discovery at University of California Can Diego School of Medicine.

"We have traditionally looked for medicine that will cure malaria" she told AFP

For the latest research, published in the journal Science, scientists dissected hundreds of thousands of mosquitoes to remove parasites inside them. Each parasite was then isolated in a tube and treated with a different chemicals compound-500,000 experiments in all.

Researchers found that certain molecules were able to kill the parasites. After around six years of work, 631 candidates molecules for a chemicals vaccine have been identified-a normal vaccine that would allow the body to make antibodies.

"If you could find a drug that you give on one day at one time that will kill all the malaria parasites in the person, both in the liver and in the bloodstream, and last for three to six months. Year, that be super but there is no drug like that right now," said Larry Slutsker e reader of PATHs Malaria and Neglected Tropical Diseases (ntds) programmes.

Reducing the number of does is crucial. That's because many medication available today must be taken over three days, said David Ready, leo of Medicine for Malaria Ventured. But often, after the first dose, a child begins to feel better and the never lessons. Parents then keep the other two does in case another of their chidren falls ill.

"That has two impacts. First the child does not get cured properly and secondly it builds drug resistance," Reddy said.
