The best kept secret in San Diego is waiting to offer you a delightful
getawaywithout leaving town.
Less than three years ago, the Parisi Hotel was just an office building above the
shops on the corner of Prospect Street. Now, that valuable space is an intimate luxury
hotel with several rooms overlooking the ocean. You'll be amazed when you enter
from the corner and ascend the curving staircase to the second-floor lobby. It will
take you into a different world.
What will you find when you enter the large contemporary lobby is a hand
some and peaceful space that was designed with a hint of Tuscany in its modern
Meditenanean style. The lobby has a large fire place with comfortable sofas in v/arm
neutral colors surrounding it. You'll feel relaxed just sitting there- with its skylight
overhead letting in the morning sun. All the rooms arc more like suites IJ, with
large comfortable beds, beautiful baths and stylish custom-designed furnishings
and art throughout.
The Parisi Hotel is the perfect place for seniors because it's quiet and
restfulwith only 20 rooms. You won't find many hotels like this in the center of a
tourist town.
The shops are all around you. Likewise for some of the city's best restaurants,
you will never have to take your car out of the garage during your stay. And, by the

Since people first launched rockets into space in the 1950s, we have been
leaving behind all sorts of things. Some of them, like the camera, were lost by
astronauts while they did work outside their spacecraft. But much of the space junk is
made up of little pieces of things that were once bigger objects, until they struck each
other and broke apart.
Some things we send into space fall back toward Earth and burn up in the : .
atmosphere. But larger pieces sometimes survive the extreme heat and hit the ground
or the ocean at great speeds. So there is always concern that something may fall from
the sky and do some harm.
But space junk falling on roofs is not the biggest worry. Scientists are concerned
about the “Kessler” problem. Imagine what happens when an empty rocket strikes
another while orbiting the earth. Two big things become many smaller things.
They then hit other things. The pieces get smaller and smaller until they form a
cloud of junk that blocks the path of future space vehicles.
Marco Castronuovo, an Italian Space Agency researcher, says launching a
satellite into space that would get very close to some of the larger pieces of space junk.
The satellite would connect a small rocket to the useless object. When the rocket
explodes, it pushes the junk into a lower and slower orbit, nearer the Earth. After a
time, the junk burns up in the atmosphere. has proposed using a
number of small satellites with robotic arms. One arm would catch the space junk, and
another arm would connect the rocket. He imagines that each satellite could jump
from one large piece of junk to another. He thinks this method could destroy about ten
large objects each year.
Scientists have been concerned about space junk for many years. Right now, the
costs of the clcan-up have been too great. says his system could be
put in place for a much more reasonable amount of money. So what can be done to
clean up the space around our planet?

You have a backache; your legs are painful after a basketball matchwhat better
than a relaxing massage 
Scientists now say they have figured out the reason why a massage brings
comfort. They say a massage changes how some of your proteins 
makes your muscles less inflamed !",according to the Los Angeles Times.
The leader of the study, Professor Mark Tamopolsky at McMaster University,
Canada, chose several healthy young men for the asked them to do
very tiring exercise. Then he looked at how the cells changed in their this,
the men were given a massage on only one leg and Tamopolsky recorded any cell
changes again.
Tamopolsky and his team found that massaging made the inflammation caused
by exercise get better because it weakened the activity of a protein called NF-kB.
Scientists also noticed that massaging helped cells recover from exercise
muscles were being massaged, the amount of another protein called
PGC-lalpha increased. This kind of protein can stimulate $%the growth of a tiny
part inside cells called mitochondria &'(.
People used to think that massaging eases pain by clearing away the lactic acid
)*which built up after exercise. However, Tamopolsky and his team didn't see
any changes to lactic acid.
