Plato reply to the wickedness At first glance the status of the wicked man that command communities might seem enviable with the possibility to give orders of any kind to the many servants, to commit injustice and even boast of the unethical behavior, but Plato (427 - 347 BC) responds philosophically to this widespread popular mentality by defining the evil man as the most unhappy ever, in fact it starts a vicious cycle increasingly violent enough to make unfair man slave of himself, of vain shadows and of vile pleasures of the senses that leaving only pain to the end, then even the servants and friends are just miserable trembling slaves. It is not an advantage even the possibility of committing injustices go unpunished or falsely to believe to be good, since that paying a just punishment could heal the soul and then with the risk to remain sick and therefore increasingly unhappy and wicked. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 01, 2015

 A probe landed on a comet On Earth the small secondary probe that has been landed on the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko would weigh about one hundred kilograms but in the space is virtually devoid of weight for this had to be anchored to the ground of the comet after the slow down seven hours after detachment from the main Rosetta probe on one of the few little rough spots chosen, at a distance of almost five hundred million kilometers from Earth. Are already available of the photographs taken during the complex approach manoeuvre while await the data and surveys of samples of comet for example taken from the drill since it is a kind of analysis on the structure of the solar system at the time of its formation over four and a half billion years ago with the idea that comets may have brought plenty of water on Earth by contributing to the formation of the oceans and thus maybe of the life. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Nov 13, 2014

Yet another record warm for September After the months of May, June and August showed all record in media on global temperatures also the month of September would have been the warmest on average since 1880 has begun to perform this type of measurement, but with the exception February all months of the year were really warm compared to the average, and so it may be yet another record year with over fourteen degrees Celsius in average combined considering the surface of the oceans, if ever during the last three months of the year continue this trend [31/12 - event then happened]. The hottest areas are found in the northwestern Africa, in the coastal regions in the southeastern South America, southwestern Australia, parts of the Middle East and regions of the southeastern Asia. Recently the European authorities have stated that the plan to cut pollutant emissions of a forty percent for 2030 is insufficient. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Oct 22, 2014

China overtakes Europe for per capita emissions Global emissions of greenhouse gases continue to rise a steady stream and in particular it seems according to a Norwegian study that China has overtaken Europe for emissions per capita (considering that the great eastern country is densely populated with large areas still not industrialized), then according to the predictions of researchers also India will overtake Europe in 2019 for emissions of carbon dioxide. In 2013 a record amount of thirty-six billion tons of CO2 were emitted into the atmosphere and thus seems far the goal of keeping global temperatures under control. In general on the of total emissions China is in first place with a twenty-nine percent, then the United States with fifteen, but preserving far ahead the record of per capita emissions that are more than three times the global average. Some think for the future to focus on technological city with low environmental impact. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Sep 22, 2014

Running even a few minutes a day Usually think that for stay healthy must do a lot of exercise and to run but it seems such runners who run a few minutes a day at moderate speed, for less than an hour a week, have the same life expectancy regarding the mortality rate due to cardiovascular problems and other causes of damage to the health of those who run for three hours a week, at least from what appears to an American study carried out on adults over fifty-five thousand runners during a period of fifteen years, so the more time spend on long-run might not be conducive to longevity. The runners have a life expectancy three years older than non-runners, and researchers have found the greatest benefit in those who run an average for six consecutive years, then it is also useful to prevent obesity, hypertension and the little healthy habit of smoking. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jul 30, 2014

The plastic maybe ends up in the ocean food chain On the surface of the ocean floating about forty thousand tons of plastic, but this large amount is still very far from that expected on the basis of data dating back to 1970 that would calculate about one million tons of floating plastic and then just have to assume that the fish eat this plastic resulting from not properly disposed waste which then inevitably ends up in the food chain and in the dishes of fish consumers. These plastic particles become smaller and smaller due to solar radiation are found in all oceans and over three thousand samples analyzed in a study carried out in 2010 in the globe is estimated that float on about eighty-eight percent of the ocean surface, then are ingested by marine organisms, and this can cause intestinal blockages. Is necessary to produce plastics that are biodegradable and environmentally sustainable. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jul 07, 2014

Innovations and experiments of Roger Bacon To investigate the nature according to Roger Bacon (about 1214 Ilchester - 1294 Oxford) is necessary to conduct trials that use accurate in finding all the sciences, and even religion, then for the British scientist religious and philosopher, known as Doctor Mirabilis for the vastness of the his knowledge and foresight of his insights pupil of Robert Grosseteste, it is possible to bring together philosophy and religion with a project that includes the study of ancient languages to understand the message of religious texts and the natural sciences through the medium of mathematics. Bacon proposed a humanistic reform guided by an inner illumination that would not ignore the discoveries of the ancient and the innovations brought by science, but he paid with long years of prison his love for research. Noteworthy his studies on optics that into practice allowed the first astronomical discoveries. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jun 25, 2014

Cutting greenhouse gas emissions as insurance Climate change poses a serious risk to civilization and then cutting greenhouse gas emissions is like an insurance policy on the health of the planet, at least according to statements by international authorities who have compiled a new report on climate change highlights such as is likely to cause conflicts and frictions between populations as a result of poverty (lack of water and food) and worsened economic conditions. Has been calculated that between ninety and ninety-five percent of greenhouse gas emissions in 2007 were due to human activities and the effects are visible all over the globe, for this we should also act quickly to avoid prolonged droughts, cold seasons and rising sea levels causing coastal storm surges, so it has been proposed yet another agreement to reduce the climate impact by 2015. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 01, 2014

Ebola outbreak in Guinea and information Would be sixty-one the victims of the eighty-seven affected by the Ebola virus in Guinea especially in the south of the country which threatens to cause lack of information in the population that is not aware of the dangers of contagion, which occurs by contact with body fluids of an infected individual, from the moment that the virus has a mortality rate between fifty and ninety percent, and for the moment there is no cure or vaccine for infectious disease, considering that Guinea has a health care system rather lacking. It's the first time of an Ebola outbreak in Guinea whose first symptoms were observed in early February with the fear that the contagion could spread into neighboring Sierra Leone (the situation is not very clear) and it would be necessary proceed to a disinfection of the areas affected, for example with products based on chlorine to ensure a minimum of prevention. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 25, 2014

Average and Pythagorean harmonics surplus For the Pythagoreans the extent of the surplus in quantities proportional is important for the musical harmony, which occurs when the parties are in excess and exceeded by the same rates that is precisely the harmonic excess verifiable in the arithmetic average; for example in the eighth the mean between 12 and 6 is the paramese of nine units (12 - 9 = 9 - 6) and the interval expressed between greater terms 12 and 9 (12/9 = 4/3, which corresponds to a fourth) is smaller than that between the minor terms 9 and 6 (9/6 = 3/2 a fifth). Instead using the formula for the harmonic mean (a - b)/a = (b - c)/c using the nete of twelve units, the mese of eight units and six for the hypate we get that eight is the average harmonic since (12 - 8)/12 = (8 - 6)/6 and in this interval the proportion expressed by the greater terms 12 and 8 (12/8 = 3/2 which corresponds to a fifth) is greater than that between minor terms 8 and 6 (8/6 = 4/3 a fourth). e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 13, 2014

Difficult management of the Fukushima plant Three years after the worst nuclear accident in Fukushima Daiichi atomic plant that continues to release radionuclides in the environment is still spoken of leak of radioactive water into the sea from the reactors cracked that according to the statements of the authorities who run the safety steps of the plant should be stopped within the next year by a kind of wall of ice in the underground, whereas the loss is one of the worst since last summer when about three hundred tons of radioactive water had leaked from one of the large decommissioning containers. In February another incident occurred due to a failure of the staff who had accidentally opened a valve of a tank pouring into the ground about a hundred tons of radioactive water, measured at two hundred and thirty million of becquerels per liter (the safety threshold is ten becquerels) without having reached the sea. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 11, 2014

Teens and use of electronic cigarettes More and more teenagers around the globe make use of electronic cigarettes advertised as useful for quitting smoking, but from research done on adolescents in America it seems that the consumption of conventional cigarettes has increased in children who use these devices that emit an aerosol of nicotine and other chemicals powered by batteries, moreover may be the primary route of access to the market of tobacco for the eye-catching and innovative image of the product. The chocolate and strawberry flavors prohibited for ordinary cigarettes since they can attract the attention of young people are allowed to electronic cigarettes (in non-regulated markets in general), then there are components considered carcinogenic such as propylene glycol and smoke particles are very fine with the risk that they can penetrate deep into the lungs. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 10, 2014

Events that recall the Sevastopol stories of Tolstoy Declarations of threat typical of belligerent nations for control of the Crimea recall the memory the "Tales of Sevastopol" a well-known autobiographical book by Lev Tolstoy (1828-1910) wrote in 1854-1855 while serving as a young officer in Sevastopol and describing for the first time with the rawness events related to the war, and in a figurative way of all the wars, without hiding the sense of death and devastation, but at the same time drawing almost heroic figures in misfortune. This book is characterized by the typical Tolstoyan realism, can also be considered as a historical document with precise description of the events and the state of mind of the various participants, and then contributed to the subsequent maturation of some concepts of the great writer as the contradiction seen in individuals of the same religion who kill without mercy, causing suffering also in the families. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 03, 2014

New uses of 3D printers and technologies With the printers in three dimensions is possible to manufacture virtually any object by drawing it to the computer with appropriate programs and for example in the case of a shoe the printer instead of ink deposited layer after layer a thin film of material to obtain a shoe that can also be of innovative form, then if need custom implants will be easy to make the necessary changes to the design of the computer and proceed to the printing, but in this case there is some doubt about the quality of medical devices and materials used, since it is sometimes difficult to maintain a high standard for serial products. Other questions arise about the type of use that will be made (since the manipulations made to applications for smartphones) of the glasses to surf the Internet and other various uses, which apparently will also be sized to allow wide diffusion. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 29, 2014

Raised the alert level for the H7N9 virus in China According to the Chinese authorities are already nineteen the victims this month for the H7N9 virus with ninety-six people infected in total (including some in serious condition), and then saw the unfavorable situation regarding the health security it was decided to ban the trade of live poultry in some areas, particularly affected the Zhejiang province that counts in the new year twelve victims and forty-nine infection for avian influenza virus so that was raised the alert level on poultry farms and in general of all birds. Would not increase the virulence and transmissibility of the virus but has been improved the method of control that allows to confirm new cases and then the infection from man to man according to experts are sporadic. Meanwhile in Hong Kong would have temporarily blocked the import of chickens from China after the virus has been identified in poultry suspected. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 28, 2014

A planet sensitive to greenhouse gas emissions Global temperatures will rise by three to five degrees with a doubling in the next five decades the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and therefore according to predictions on new data on the climate that taking into account the action of the water vapor in the formation of clouds of at least four degrees by 2100, since the previous climate models do not properly evaluated the action of the clouds in reflect the sunlight helping to mitigate temperatures, and direct measurements usually show a more sky clear of clouds due to the action of the ascending currents. Clouds are formed less than expected with global warming and then the planet would be more sensitive to greenhouse gas emissions proceeding to redress the climate models with actual observations, and also with regard to the current average temperatures in 2013 were among the best hot years since it was started in 1850 to measure the temperatures. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 03, 2014
