A Texan student who refused to wear a badge with a radio tag that tracked her movements has lost a federal court appeal against her school's ID policy. The radio chips track attendance, which in turn helps secure school funding. But Andrea Hernandez, 15, stopped wearing the badge on religious grounds, saying it was the "mark of the beast". After John Jay High School suspended her, she went to court and won a temporary injunction to continue going to the school, without the badge. The federal court ruling overturned that, saying if she was to stay at the school, she would be required to wear the badge. Otherwise, she would have to transfer to a new school. The new identification policy at the Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio, Texas, began at the start of the 2012 school year. John Jay High School is one of two schools piloting the programme, which eventually aims to equip all student badges across the district's 112 school...

According to the Age, the men, with skin painted blue like the fictional characters from the cartoon, allegedly assaulted a 37-year-old man at a Melbourne convenience store when he reportedly refused to light a cigarette he offered to one of the "Smurfs."

Camera footage from the convenience store (featured above) shows the Smurfs moments before the alleged assault took place....

Jan. 8, 2013 — On the list of undesirable medical conditions, a parasitic worm infection surely ranks fairly high. Although modern pharmaceuticals have made them less of a threat in some areas, these organisms are still a major cause of disease and disability throughout much of the developing world. But parasites are not all bad, according to new research by a team of scientists now at the University of Georgia, the Harvard School of Public Health, the Université François Rabelais in Tours, France, and the Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China. A study published recently in  Nature Medicine  demonstrates that once inside a host, many parasitic worms secrete a sugar-based anti-inflammatory molecule that might actually help treat metabolic disorders associated with obesity. The sugar molecule, or glycan, is released by parasites to help them evade the body's immune system. By reducing inflammation, they are better able to hide in tissues, and humans experience...
