<br />
The next supermoon will be November's full Beaver Moon, which is expected to reach the peak of its full phase on the morning of Monday, Nov. 14, at 8:52 a.m. EST (1352 GMT), but it will appear full to the casual observer in the day before and after the main event. It is the second of three consecutive supermoon full moons for 2016. Live webcasts of this supermoon begin Sunday night (Nov. 13) and run through Monday. Read our Supermoon Webcast Guide for details.<br />
<br />
This full moon will be not only the closest and brightest supermoon of 2016 but also the largest since 1948, Bob Berman, an astronomer at the Slooh Community Observatory, told Space.com. What's more, the full moon won't come this close to Earth again until Nov. 25, 2034, according to a statement from NASA. The Slooh Community Observatory will offer a live broadcast for November's full moon on Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. EST (0100 GMT on Nov. 14). You can also watch the supermoon live on Space.com, courtesy of Slooh.<br />

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
His comments came as the government said it was increasing a weekly cash withdrawal limit and taking steps to help people in remote areas access money as frustration mounted.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
There have been huge queues outside banks and ATMs ever since they reopened last Thursday, two days after Modi announced that 500 ($7.50) and 1,000 rupee notes would no longer be legal tender in a bid to tackle corruption and tax evasion.Indians rely heavily on cash for their daily transactions and those living in rural areas or who do not have bank accounts have been particularly hard hit.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
Modi said he had been "pained" by the hardships people were facing, but insisted the move would ultimately benefit poor Indians."I am aware you are facing difficulties with 500 and 1000 rupee notes ban. I understand the inconvenience," he said at a political rally in Uttar Pradesh, India's most populous state which goes to the polls next year.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"I am really pained by the inconvenience and that is why I am working tirelessly to help people overcome this situation."I will never let anyone loot money that belongs to India's poor."Banks remained open over the weekend to try to ease the crunch, but many ATMs were out of cash.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The government has said it will take time for the machines to be re calibrated to accept the new notes, adding to the general frustration.On Monday Shakti Kanta Das, India's secretary for economic affairs, said the government would increase a weekly withdrawal limit of 20,000 to 24,000 rupees.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It will also allow a network of so-called banking correspondents, who travel to rural areas to provide people with access to banking services, to carry more cash.The government has said the old notes can temporarily be used for essential services such as medical assistance.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
They can be exchanged for new ones or deposited in a bank account until December 30, but long queues and a lack of cash has hampered that process.<br />
Modi pledged to crack down on so-called black money -- vast piles of wealth kept hidden from the tax authorities -- when he came to power in 2014.Analysts have broadly welcomed the latest initiative, but said consumer spending would likely dip in the short term as the new notes made their way into circulation. </div>

Taking part in the deliberations, lawmaker Mohan Bahadur Basnet expressed his displeasure at the process taken in introducing the motion to the House. The ruling partner was not informed while presenting the impeachment proposal against the CIAA Chief, he said, adding he sees problem within the motion itself.</div>

Yubraj Gyawali claimed that the proposal was brought as per the constitution and the Legislature-Parliament work operation regulations, urging all lawmakers not to harbour doubt on its intention and vote for it.</div>

Alleging Karki of insulting the parliamentary committee, contempt of court, disobeying the people's representative body and of giving psychological torture to employees and terrorizing the public, he said such activities by the CIAA chief compelled lawmakers to move a motion of impeachment against him.</div>

Shibalal Thapa, describing Karki's appointment itself as a wrong move, said political parties have a time for making the correction of their mistake through the impeachment motion. He asserted that leaders of three major political parties should inform the House about the reasons for Karki's appointment as the CIAA chief.</div>

Rameshwor Phuyal said Karki had to face the impeachment motion for running a 'parallel government' and neglecting the presence of the parliamentary committee. The motion is meant for protecting the constitution, he argued.</div>

Do Caffeine Crashes Make You Depressed?

Caffeine is the most commonly used stimulant in the world. It has been used for centuries to help invigorate the senses and energize the body. Many people use coffee, tea, energy drinks or caffeinated soft drinks as a way to boost energy and alertness at the start of a new day. However, few people realize that caffeine can have serious and negative side effects, including depression. Caffeine highs can last for a few hours, but after the initial high, caffeine levels drop dramatically, which can lead to depression and anxiety. If depression has become a problem, consult your doctor as soon as possible.</div>

<div data-dmc="section" style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Depression begins at a biological level in a person's brain and is something that cannot be controlled by the individual experiencing it. Neurotransmitters, the chemicals in the brain responsible for sending message within the brain, are altered when a person experiences depression. During depression, the brain has lowered access to important neurotransmitters that regulate mood, appetite, stress and sleep. Many factors can trigger this problem, including genetics, hormones, blood sugar levels and stress.</div>

<div data-dmc="section" style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Symptoms of depression include changes in sleep patterns and appetite; difficulty concentrating; feeling hopeless or helpless; irritability or aggressiveness; constant sadness or anger; an inability to control negative thoughts and emotions, suicidal thoughts or reckless behavior. On average, depressed men tend to feel emotions such as anger rather than sadness. Short-term sadness in response to life's ups and downs is common. Depression is more than just sadness; it is a long-term problem that you should discuss with your doctor.</div>

Low blood-sugar levels can cause feelings of depression. Caffeine works for a few hours to increase energy levels, but afterward, people often experience a caffeine crash. When caffeine is consumed, insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar, is increased. Insulin lowers blood sugar levels, which can cause depression a few hours after you consume caffeine.</div>

Giving more pregnant women common thyroid medicine may reduce risk of complications

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
The thyroid gland is an organ found in the base of the neck. It produces essential hormones that control the body's metabolism - the way we use energy. Thyroid hormones are also critical for foetal brain development, but babies cannot make any of their own until the second trimester and have to source all of it from their mothers.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
2-3% of pregnant women have mild hypothyroidism, meaning they have low levels of <a class="textTag" href="http://medicalxpress.com/tags/thyroid+hormones/" rel="tag" style="border-bottom: 1px dotted rgb(49, 61, 87); color: #313d57; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">thyroid hormones</a>. This can be treated with a hormone replacement drug called levothyroxine.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
In this study, researchers from the University of Cardiff investigated whether pregnant women with mild hypothyroidism and their babies would also benefit from levothyroxine treatment. They combined data from a thyroid screening study and linked it to routinely collected clinical data to study the effect of correcting borderline thyroid function on obstetric outcomes.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
Extending the number of pregnant women given the common drug levothyroxine to boost thyroid hormone levels may lead to a reduced number of stillbirths, early caesarean sections and low-weight babies, according to a new study presented today at the Society for Endocrinology annual conference in Brighton.The researchers analysed over 13,000 women who were 12-16 weeks pregnant, 518 of whom had mild hypothyroidism. Of these, 263 women received levothyroxine and the rest received no treatment. They assessed the women's pregnancy outcomes by measuring stillbirth rates, preterm delivery, length of stay at hospital, birth weight and the number of early caesarean sections.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
They found that women with mild hypothyroidism treated with levothyroxine had a lower risk of giving birth to low weight babies and were also less likely to undergo an early caesarean. Untreated women with mild hypothyroidism were more likely to have a stillbirth than women with normal thyroid function and no stillbirths occurred in the treated group. However, there was no significant difference between the other obstetric outcomes or when all outcomes were combined.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
"Our work raises the possibility of providing real benefits from using a safe, cheap and well established treatment by simply extending it to the number of pregnant women we treat," said Dr Peter Taylor, lead author of the study.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.4; padding: 0px 0px 17px;">
While further trials are needed to confirm these findings, Dr Taylor believes more substantial benefits might be found by treating the pregnant women at an earlier stage than used in this study. "We should consider universal thyroid screening in pregnancy as it compares favourably in terms of cost-effectiveness with other conditions that we currently screen for," he added.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #111111;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Some vitamin D comes from the diet. Good sources include fatty fish and fish oil, dairy products, mushrooms, liver, and egg yolks. However, it is mostly synthesized when the body is exposed to sunlight. Dietary sources alone cannot normally provide sufficient vitamin D.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The team also examined the cells that line the bladder, known as transitional epithelial cells. They found that these cells can activate and respond to vitamin D, and that they can synthesize enough vitamin D to trigger a local immune response. By recognizing abnormal cells before they develop further, the immune system may be able to use this information to prevent cancer.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The researchers conclude that "bladder cancer risk correlates with low serum [vitamin D] levels." Dr. Bland suggests that if this is confirmed, administering supplementary vitamin D could be a safe and economical means of prevention.</span></div>

Having a multiple gestation pregnancy</h2>
<div style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 8px; padding: 0px;">
 Women and their partners may ask, "will my babies look alike?" The answer is that it depends. In cases of identical twins, for example, they look exactly alike because one egg was fertilized and split into two embryos.<br />
<br />
Fraternal twins are not identical and occur when two eggs are fertilized by two separate sperm. In cases of fraternal multiples, the fetuses are not genetically identical.</div>
<div style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 8px; padding: 0px;">
Certain women are more likely than others to have a multiple gestation pregnancy. These women include:</div>

In twin gestations, it is necessary to work out if each fetus has its own chorion and amniotic sac. The amniotic sac is a bag of fluid in the womb where the fetus grows. It is formed of two membranes, and one of these is the chorion.</div>
<div style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 8px; padding: 0px;">
Doctors can find this out by carrying out an ultrasound exam. Twins are defined into one of three categories:</div>
<ul style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px; list-style: square; margin: 20px 0px 30px 18px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px;">
<li style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Dichorionic-diamniotic: These are either fraternal or identical twins who most commonly have their own placenta, chorions, and amniotic sacs.</li>
<li style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Monochorionic-diamniotic: These are identical twins who share a placenta and chorion but have their own amniotic sacs. These twins can experience a complication known as twin-twin transfusion syndrome. One twin "donates" blood to the other, resulting in one twin with too much blood and the other with too little.</li>
<li style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; border: 0px; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Monochorionic-monoamniotic: These are identical twins sharing a chorion, amniotic sac, and placenta.

Samsung to offer service with a virtual assistant in Galaxy S8

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Samsung is to offer artificial intelligence assistant service in its upcoming flagship smartphone.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SHARE</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The South Korean tech giant said the Galaxy S8 would let users order food or perform other tasks by simply asking the phone's virtual assistant, without going through a third-party application.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Samsung joined the race to create the digital assistant service when it acquired in October Viv Labs, a Silicon Valley start-up launched by the same entrepreneurs who sold Siri to Apple.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Galaxy S8 is expected to make its debut in the spring.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sales of the S8 will be crucial for the recovery of Samsung's mobile business, which saw its profit nearly wiped out by two global recalls of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
AP</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The artificial intelligence service will also be made available in Samsung's other consumer electronics products, such as fridges.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The company would not say what specific tasks the S8 phone would perform through its artificial intelligence feature.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Samsung estimates it has lost at least £4.3 billion as it discontinued the Note 7 model, which overheated and caught fire. The company said last month that it had not determined what went wrong with the phones.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Past and current Samsung phones offer a voice assistant service called "S Voice" developed internally, but the feature did not gain much traction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Samsung's acquisition of Viv Labs was seen as its taking another step to seek independence from Google, which offers its brand of virtual assistant service in Android-powered devices.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Executives at Samsung and Viv Labs said the biggest difference between the existing digital assistant and the one they were jointly developing was that the latter would be an "open AI platform", meaning that third-party developers will be able to offer their services through Samsung's AI platform.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Our Galaxy smartphones don't provide services that enable consumers to order pizza or coffee, but does provide third party applications. But the new AI platform will enable consumers to do things that they would usually do through a separate third party application," a Samsung statement said.</div>
