A Flash of Light Occurs at Moment of Conception
BY: JAMES BARRETT
Scientists have discovered that a "breathtaking" flash of light occurs at the moment of conception.
For the first time, researchers from Northwestern University have now demonstrated that when
a human sperm first meets an egg a bright zinc spark can be seen, not only a "remarkable"
phenomenon but also one that might be a game-changer for in vitro fertilization.
"It was remarkable," said the study's co-author Professor Teresa Woodruff. "We discovered
the zinc spark just five years ago in the mouse, and to see the zinc radiate out in
a burst from each human egg was breathtaking. All of biology starts at the time of fertilization,
yet we know next to nothing about the events that occur in the human."
"All of biology starts at the time of fertilization, yet we know next to nothing about the events
that occur in the human."
PROFESSOR TERESA WOODRUFF
The researchers say that the size of the flash of light provides valuable information about
the health of the eggs. The brighter the flash, the more viable the egg, and thus the better
option for in vitro fertilization, which has a high failure rate (around 50%) and often
involves clinicians using imprecise means of testing or simply choosing whichever eggs
they think appear to be most viable.
"This means if you can look at the zinc spark at the time of fertilization, you will know
immediately which eggs are the good ones to transfer in in vitro fertilization," explained
Woodruff. "It's a way of sorting egg quality in a way we�ve never been able to assess
before."
"This is an important discovery because it may give us a non-invasive and easily visible
way to assess the health of an egg and eventually an embryo before implantation," said co-author
Dr Eve Feinberg. "There are no tools currently available that tell us if it�s a good quality
egg. Often we don�t know whether the egg or embryo is truly viable until we see if
a pregnancy ensues. That�s the reason this is so transformative. If we have the ability
up front to see what is a good egg and what�s not, it will help us know which embryo to
transfer, avoid a lot of heartache and achieve pregnancy much more quickly."

the egg:

Listen up Canada: don't eff with PEI! | 22 Minutes - Duration: 1:55.
Hello, I'm Dwayne MacPherson, Deputy Premier of Prince Edward Island... you know...
the province.
It has come to our attention that PEI is bein' left off some new maps being made around Canada.
CAA magazine, the Bay, Vancouver Airport....
Well, I just thought I'd make this little video to tell the rest of Canada to
Cut the [bleep]
Listen, you bastards, PEI is not the turd of this country.
What do we look like Manitoba?!
Sure we occasionally sleep with our cousins, but do you know how hard it is not to sleep
with a cousin or two on a small island of 140,000 people?
It's hard, dammit.
And some of our cousins are hot as Marilla Cuthbert.
Listen, we're not taking this lying down.
So, from now on, all schools and government buildings will have a new map of Canada hangin'
on their walls, and it's gonna be this one:
Yeah, how do you like that?
How does that feel?
Don't worry. We included the rest of Canada.
Look close.
It's tucked riiiiight here.
So, in conclusion, Canada:
suck it.
Don't eff with us.
You need the tourism dollars, because I'll tell you somethin' right now, those thousands
of Japanese tourists, they aren't coming over here for some magnetic piece of crap hill.
You got it?
Good.
MacPherson, out!
Potato drop!
This has been a message from Deputy Premier Dwayne MacPherson, saltier than a tater-tot.

Nightwing Movie: Dave Franco is Game to Play Dick Grayson HD || Movie Reivew - Duration: 4:41.
Nightwing Movie: Dave Franco is Game to Play Dick Grayson
Warner Bros. is still in the early days of the DC Extended Universe, but so far the biggest highlight has been the return of the Caped Crusader with Ben Affleck taking on this role. He was a standout in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and has stayed front and center throughout the marketing for Justice League. His solo movie is now starting to come together with Matt Reeves onboard to direct, and it looks like WB is doubling down on how heavy of an influence Batman has on the universe.

His solo movie is now starting to come together with Matt Reeves onboard to direct, and it looks like WB is doubling down on how heavy of an influence Batman has on the universe.
As some Justice League members await word on their solo films, WB has been busy fleshing out the Batverse with Suicide Squad 2 eyeing a number of directors, but the most recent news came that Joss Whedon will be directing a Batgirl solo movie.
She is not the only member of the Bat Family to get her own movie however, as Chris McKay is taking on Nightwing.
The project has yet to cast a lead, but if WB is interested in Dave Franco for the role, he would be interested in joining.
Comic Book spoke to Franco at CinemaCon following the WB presentation that featured Franco in The LEGO Ninjago Movie.
With McKay making the jump from The LEGO Batman to Nightwing, the site expressed their interest in seeing Franco follow suit and star as Dick Grayson.
While he has yet to hear anything from the studio, he will definitely answer that call should it come. Absolutely. Again, it is one of these things that they can literally go to anybody, but I'm here if they want me.
Nightwing Comic Art Dick Grayson Nightwing Movie: Dave Franco is Game to Play Dick Grayson. Should something ever be made of Franco's potential interest in the role, it would mark a big change for him as an actor.
He has so far stayed very close to comedy and it has worked out quite well for him to this point.
Whether it was his start in Superbad or joining later franchises like 21 Jump Street, Now You See Me, and Neighbors 2, comedy has always been a big part of Franco's success.
That said, after all these years being looked at as purely a comedy guy, landing a role like Nightwing could show his full range and allow him to dive into more dramatic material, while also mixing in some action.
Nightwing is typically not cracking jokes most of the time, and in this iteration could be more serious following the death of a fellow Robin.
As of right now, this is purely just a case of an actor being interested in joining what could be a super popular franchise, so it will be interesting to see if anything actually comes out of this or not.
WB, as pointed out by Franco, will have no shortage of options for the role.
If McKay is hoping to inject a similarly comedic styling to Nightwing that he showed in The LEGO Batman Movie, then maybe Franco could be a great choice after all.

Sciatica: Myofascial Trigger Points 001 - Duration: 3:10.
Do you have low back pain, hip or leg pain and have been diagnosed with Sciatica.
Or think you might have Sciatica?
Well with this mini series we are going to address myofascial trigger points that can
mimic or create Sciatica.
Hey guys!
Keith Sparks here and I'm glad you are tuning in on our mini series for Sciatica and Sciatica
type pain.
What we are going to do for this mini series is work top down.
The first area we want to talk about is the thoracic lumbar junction.
It is right inbetween the low back and the mid-back - that transition point.
Commonly myofascial trigger points in those erector muscles, at that area, produce pain
that goes down into the SI joints which are the boney bumps right inbewteen the low back
and the pelvis.
The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in your entire body and it comes from the union
of the nerve roots coming out of the low back travelling down into the leg.
Anywhere along that area you can get trigger points that can compress on the sciatic nerve producing
sciatica or you can get compensating myofascial trigger points that also mimic and produce
sciatic type pain.
For the T/L junction you can use your foam roller, lacrosse ball, or tennis ball.
It doesn't matter.
Whatever you have at your disposal grab it and lets get started now.
First grab your foam roller.
We are going to use it at the T/L junction and then we are going to switch to a lacrosse
ball here in a second.
The foam roller, we want to put it right in the middle where the arch of the mid-back
turns into the arch of the low back.
From here, you can rest.
You can push with your feet up and down.
It doesn't quiet matter as long as you are getting compression and relaxation out of
the tissue.
You can even arch your back and roll that way.
It is really a personal preferrence.
It doesn't matter about foam rolling through a neutral spine, you hear a lot of people
talk about that.
It is really whatever gets at the tissue to help relieve your pain.
Next, take your lacrosse ball.
You can use either or its totally up to you.
The lacrosse ball, the advantage with it, is you can also roll to the side which we
will show you here in a second - which targets more the quadratus lumborum and the serratus
posterior inferior muscle.
Same area.
Now you can roll up and down as we did with the foam roller or you can roll side to side.
This gets at those attachments for the quadratus lumborum and serratus posterior inferior along
those attachment sites for the ribcage.
Give these a shot.
It is totally up to you how you want to do this.
But try this when you are having some low back pain down around
the SI (sacroiliac) area. Thanks!

EXCLUSIVE World is 'about to be told ALIENS EXIST and are HERE on EARTH - tech and science - Duration: 4:13.
EXCLUSIVE: World is 'about to be told ALIENS EXIST and are HERE on EARTH'
GLOBAL governments are preparing the world for an imminent announcement that intelligent
aliens exist and are already here on Earth, it has astonishingly been alleged.
The claim is made by lobby group The Disclosure Activists, a new international consortium
trying to force the alleged truth about aliens out into the open.
Conspiracy theorists have claimed for years aliens have been visiting Earth and world
leaders are aware, but it has been kept from the public under an alleged "truth embargo"
amid fears of the impact it would have on religion and the rule of law.
But now The Disclosure Activists claim and number of recent UFO file declassifications,
means the lid is about to come off once and for all.
In a statement, the organisation said "the historical stance of widespread denial and
misinformation has shifted".
Group, co-founder Russell Calka: "Recently there is a systematic effort from within the
US and other world governments to release this information to the public."
Victor Viggiani, the senior strategic adviser to organisation, added: "All of the evidence
that has been accumulated by researchers, military witness testimony, and acquired from
declassified government documents over the last 70 years points to three very basic conclusions?�?the
planet Earth has been and is being engaged by off-world civilisations.
"Secondly?�?this information has been hidden from the public in a well orchestrated and
systematic embargo on the truth.
"Thirdly, governments know these conclusions are true?�?researchers of this topic know
these conclusions are true, and it is now time for humanity to learn these truths.�
The statement added: "The Disclosure Activists contend that Disclosure is already underway.
"Earlier this month, the Spanish Ministry of Defence released a cache of previously
classified UFO documents, similar to documents released by the Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA) in January 2017, and similar to other document releases from governments in the
UK, Chile, and Mexico.
"NASA reported the discovery of additional habitable exoplanets (bringing the total to
well over 3000) and just this month, former President George W Bush alluded to his knowledge
of the UFO phenomenon in an interview on late night television with Jimmy Kimmel.
"There have also been email leaks, via Wikileaks, that indicate this topic is of substantial
interest to government and military, as they prepare citizens for disclosure of extraterrestrial
visitation."
Group co-founder Dr Lisa Galarneau said: "Through these government disclosures, scientific discoveries
of exoplanets, leaks, and hints from insiders, the public is being prepared for official
announcements regarding extraterrestrial visitation.
"This awareness building campaign is deliberate in its attempt to prepare humanity for formal
Disclosure.
"This is an important step towards open contact with extraterrestrial intelligences who have
not shown hostile intentions and could help humanity with some of our most intractable
problems, including energy, climate change, pollution, and resource scarcity."
The statement ended saying: "Disclosure is imminent.
"We are not alone in the cosmos and we never have been.
Citizens have a need to know."
Sceptics claim there is no truth embargo, because no aliens have ever visited Earth.
They argue that if such a secret had been kept secret for so many years, particularly
since the age of whistleblowing websites like Wikileaks began, that tangible evidence of
aliens existing would have been leaked.
