Many may remember our wonderful Yay Sarin,

Many may remember our wonderful Yay Sarin, now passed away, and her grace and resilience that helped start our Granny Program. Much has changed since this post but the spirit here remains: Please meet my granny ("Yay" in Khmer). She's new to the garbage dump communities and approached me one night at CCF's Community Centre. She explained that she had no remaining children to support her, partly due to the Pol Pot days, and was without resources or income She is very poor an d so gracious - and she wasn't there to ask for money. She heard from the local kids that I provide them with their photos. She asked if could I please take her photo and enlarge it, so she would have a fitting image of herself for her funeral.

Invisible Man meets the Seven Wonders in amazing pictures by body art genius

Invisible Man meets the Seven Wonders in amazing pictures by body art genius, It is the most extreme version of hide and seek you're ever likely to see... or not see. Look carefully at these incredible photographs of famous landmarks and you'll spot a human figure merging with the background. The remarkable effect is achieved not by computer trickery, but by 35-year-old American artist Trina Merry meticulously applying body paint to a model so he blends in with his familiar su rroundings.  Shots such as these at the ‪ Colosseum‬ in ‪ Rome‬ and the Great Wall of ‪ China‬ , both named among the United Nations' New 7 Wonders of the World in 2007, take up to eight hours to set up. And while you might think it's just a clever and fun illusion, Ms Merry explains it in much artier terms. The ephemeral nature of body paint forces focus and reflects on the reality of existence,' she claims, grandly. She has certainly built up quite...

Another post from the past.

What we do and what we don't do: Little Dany here has no parents. She was living in such squalor than even my hardened senses would occasionally cause a wretch. Perched knee-height about open sewage and a small enclosure of ill-looking pigs, Dany's grandparents borrowed money for food and were frequently ill. Dany had chronic respiratory illnesses. When the grandmother was strong enough, she would set out to scavenge for recyclables, to pay for food, to pay down debts, with nothing left for medicines. When I found them, the grandmother's first reaction was to offer me Dany. It was a purely selfless act, as they clearly adored Dany but couldn't provide for her. What we did not do was say "ok, thanks" and take Dany off to a brighter future, away from her grandparents. What we did do was to get Dany into school, both public school and CCF's incredibly cool and popular education program. We then found a better place for the grandparent...

New discovery on anti-AIDS made by Nankai University

A research group of the medical school at Nankai University recently discovered a type of protein coil domain containing protein 8 (CCDC8), which has high anti-HIV-1 activity, and may be able to greatly slow down the virus production. This discovery points in a new direction for anti-AIDS drugs. Normally, after the human body is infected with HIV, the virus soon invades human cells, quickly replicating and releasing outside of cells. Under the “direction” of the viral genome, host cells turn into a structural protein in cytoplasm called “Gag” during the process. Gag is the main building material for the HIV virus structure. Gag gathers on the cytomembrane and forms polymers to “bud” outside of the cell. Eventually the semi-finished virus departs the host cell and turns into a whole virus particle. However, the research team discovered that when Gag meets CCDC8, its assembly process was hindered. In addition, CCDC8 combines with other proteins like Obs11 and Cu17 to degrad...

5 Annoying Reasons You're Not Getting the Best Car Insurance Rates

The formulas used to price car insurance can be a real black box. Your insurance rates might be affected by factors you can’t control and might not even know about. A recent study from NerdWallet found that people can save an average of $859 a year just by shopping around because pricing is so uneven among companies for the exact same coverage. Here are five reasons you might be getting penalized on your car insurance rates. 1. You have fair or poor credit Some studies have shown a correlation between lower credit and a higher chance drivers will make claims. Although consumer advocates dismiss the correlation and think using credit in pricing can be discriminatory, insurers in most states are allowed to take credit into account. So even if you dutifully pay your car insurance bill on time, if other bills have gotten behind and dinged your credit you’ll pay more for car insurance.
