Birthday’s origin
In ancient Rome, there was the habit of celebrating the birthday of a person. There weren’t parties like we know today, but cakes were prepared and offers were made. Then, the habits of wishing happy birthday, giving gifts and lighting candles became popular as a way to protect the birthday person from devils and ensure good things to the next year in the person’s life. The celebrations only became popular like we know today after fourteen centuries, in a collective festival performed in Germany.

This ancient Greek warship ruled the Mediterranean
Fast, maneuverable, and dangerous, the trireme was
the most feared ship in ancient Greece. With powerful
bronze rams and the ability to turn on a dime, it would leave
enemy ships dead in the water by punching holes in their
sides or smashing their oars. In his Histories, Herodotus
writes how Greek naval dominance owed so much to the
brilliant use of triremes in battle.
In the fifth century B.C., Athenian shipyards had the
capacity for over 300 triremes, the most famous warships of
antiquity. The trireme—a term derived from the Greek
trieres, “three rows of oars”—was the result of the
continuous development of naval technology in the Greek
world. The epic poem Iliad (attributed to Homer, and written
in the eighth century B.C.) mentions ships called triaconters
and penteconters, vessels that were crewed by 30 or 50
men, respectively. Biremes, with two rows of oarsmen, are
recorded on eighth-century B.C. reliefs. At the beginning of
the seventh century B.C., accumulated experience led to
new technical advances, and the much more sophisticated
trireme model appeared.

CANCER PILL HOPE NHS to offer 300,000 women at
high risk of breast cancer a 4p pill that could halve
danger
(1º§) Once-a-day tumour drug Anastrozole is to be
repurposed as a preventative after research showed it
slashed the threat by 49 per cent. The NHS in England
will offer it to around 289,000 post-menopausal women
who have genes that mean breast cancer runs in their
family. It estimates 2,000 cancers could be prevented for
every 36,000 women who take the drug for five years.
(2º§) Doctors have been allowed to prescribe
Anastrozole, also known as Arimidex, to prevent cancer
since 2017 but it was never officially designated for this
purpose, so was uncommon. A new licence from the
Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency
means it will now become standard care. The hormone
therapy reduces levels of oestrogen that some tumours
feed off.
(3º§) NHS England chief exec Amanda Pritchard said:
"This is the first drug to be repurposed through a
world-leading new programme to help us realise the full
potential of existing medicines to save and improve
lives." Baroness Delyth Morgan, of charity Breast Cancer
Now, called the roll-out a "major step forward". Baroness
Delyth Morgan, chief executive at the charity Breast
Cancer Now, said: "[It] will enable more eligible women
with a significant family history of breast cancer to reduce
their chance of developing the disease." The treatment is
taken as a 1mg tablet, once a day for five years.
(4º§) Trials have shown that the drug reduces breast
cancer cases by 49 per cent over 11 years among
eligible women. The most common side effects of the
medicine are hot flushes, feeling weak, pain/stiffness in
the joints, arthritis, skin rash, nausea, headache,
osteoporosis, and depression. The cases prevented by
anastrozole could save the NHS £15 million in treatment
costs.
(5º§) Around 47,000 women in England are diagnosed
with breast cancer each year. Health Minister Will Quince
said: "Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the
UK so I'm delighted that another effective drug to help to
prevent this cruel disease has now been approved.
"We've already seen the positive effect anastrozole can
have in treating the disease when it has been detected in
post-menopausal women and now we can use it to stop it
developing at all in some women."

In hopeful sign for the US, flu vaccine shows strong
protection against hospitalization in South America,
CDC report shows
By Deidre McPhillips, CNN Published 1:49 PM EDT, Fri September 8, 2023 Early data from South America shows that the flu vaccine has cut the risk of hospitalization in half this year, a hopeful sign that the vaccine will provide a similar level of protection in the United States as the country heads into its own respiratory virus season. The Southern Hemisphere typically experiences its flu season a few months earlier than the United States, and trends from that region can help the US prepare for the fall and winter. This year, mid-season flu vaccine data from five countries – Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay – shows that vaccination has reduced the risk of hospitalization by 52%, according to a report published Friday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The data are based on about 3,000 patients who were hospitalized between late March and early July. People who had gotten the shot at least two weeks before the onset of symptoms were considered to be vaccinated, and the analysis focused on certain high-risk groups who were prioritized in the vaccination campaigns, including children, people with preexisting conditions and older adults. So far, the specific virus strains that have been detected in US this year have shown a similar pattern to those that were identified in South America. While these patterns are not yet certain, they offer an “encouraging outlook for vaccine protection” in the Northern Hemisphere, the researchers wrote in the new report. Annual flu shots are available now and the CDC recommends them for everyone 6 months of age and older in September and October, especially including very young children, people with preexisting health conditions, pregnant people and older adults. The agency is rolling out new ads it hopes will increase confidence in the vaccines with a clear, straightforward message: “The flu vaccine won’t keep a person from getting sick, but it will tame that infection, taking it from “Wild to Mild” — the tagline for the new campaign.

The world’s oldest map of the night sky was amazingly
accurate
Newly discovered fragments of 2,200-year-old star
coordinates—once thought lost—reveal the incredible skill
of the ancient astronomer Hipparchus.
Some 2,200 years ago, the Greek astronomer
Hipparchus helped ___________ a new way of
understanding the motions of the stars that persists to this
day. By imagining Earth at the center of a celestial sphere,
he used a coordinate system similar to latitude and
longitude, which had recently been devised, to measure the
precise positions of the stars.
“He was arguably the greatest ancient astronomer.
At least the greatest known to us by name,” says Victor
Gysembergh, a science historian at the French National
Center for Scientific Research.
Many ancient Greek scientists believed that Earth
was literally at the center of the universe, and the stars and
other celestial bodies rotated around it, although a model
with Earth orbiting the sun was ___________ in the 3rd
century B.C. Although this geocentric model is incorrect, the
concept, which Hipparchus used to create the first known
star catalog, is still used by scientists to map objects in the
sky.
Hipparchus’s star catalog is the oldest known
attempt to document the positions of as many objects in the
night sky as possible, and it was the first time that two
coordinates were used to pinpoint each object’s location.
But that original catalog is lost to time, and we know of it
only thanks to the writings of later scientists such as
Ptolemy, who created his own star catalog around 150 A.D.
and attributed an earlier one to Hipparchus. Until now, the
oldest evidence for stellar coordinates from Hipparchus was
an 8th-century A.D. Latin translation of a poem about the
constellations that includes the coordinates as a kind of
annotation.
Gysembergh and his ___________ recently
revealed even older evidence of star coordinates from
Hipparchus in a 5th- or 6th-century A.D. Greek version of the
same poem, Phenomena, originally written by the Greek
poet Aratus in the 3rd century B.C. The poem, along with the
accompanying star coordinates, had been erased from a
reused medieval parchment and was recovered only through
multispectral imaging, which uses different wavelengths of
light to highlight the removed text.
The coordinates for the four stars to the farthest
north, south, east, and west of the constellation Corona
Borealis are included, though one of them could not be
recovered from the manuscript. They were found to be
accurate to within one degree of modern values—a
remarkable achievement for someone working about 1,700
years before the invention of the telescope.
