Extractions: Centennial Symposium here yesterday celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Nobel prize, 100 Nobel laureates have issued a brief but dire warning of the "profound dangers" facing the world. Their statement predicts that our security depends on immediate environmental and social reform. The following is the text of their statement: THE STATEMENT The most profound danger to world peace in the coming years will stem not from the irrational acts of states or individuals but from the legitimate demands of the world's dispossessed. Of these poor and disenfranchised, the majority live a marginal existence in equatorial climates. Global warming, not of their making but originating with the wealthy few, will affect their fragile ecologies most. Their situation will be desperate and manifestly unjust. It cannot be expected, therefore, that in all cases they will be content to await the beneficence of the rich. If then we permit the devastating power of modern weaponry to spread through this combustible human landscape, we invite a conflagration that can engulf both rich and poor. The only hope for the future lies in co-operative international action, legitimized by

In addition to winning Nobel prizes, 18 of the signers have received the National Medal of Science, the nations highest science honor. The Declaration Reads: "The undersigned oppose a preventive war against Iraq without broad international support. Military operations against Iraq may indeed lead to a relatively swift victory in the short term. But war is characterized by surprise, human loss and unintended consequences. Even with a victory, we believe that the medical, economic, environmental, moral, spiritual, political and legal consequences of an American preventive attack on Iraq would undermine, not protect, U.S. security and standing in the world." The signers are these, with E designating economics; P, physics; C, chemistry; and M, medicine or physiology: George A. Akerlof E Philip W. Anderson P

Furchgott, Ferid Murad und Louis Ignarro werden in diesem Jahr mit dem Medizin-Nobelpreis ausgezeichnet. Wie das Sekretariat der Nobel-Stiftung in Stockholm am Montag mitteilte, erhalten die drei Wissenschaftler die Auszeichnung für ihre Arbeiten über die Rolle von Stickoxid als Botenstoff im Herz-Kreislaufsystem. Der Nobelpreis für Medizin ist in diesem Jahr mit umgerechnet 1,5 Millionen DM dortiert und wird am 10. Dezember, dem Todestag des Stifters Alfred Nobel, in Stockholm verliehen. Die giftigen Stickoxide sind einer breiteren Allgemeinheit vor allem als Umwelt-Problemstoff bekannt, etwa als Bestandteil der Autoabgase. In Verbindung mit Sonnenlicht tragen sie unter anderem zum Bildung des Reizgases Ozon bei, das in der unteren Atmosphäre den Sommersmog-Effekt bewirkt. Waffe gegen Infektionen Welche positive Wirkungen Stickoxide im Körper dageben ebenfalls haben, wurde erst durch die Forschungen der drei Nobelpreisträger bekannt. Danach nimmt Stickoxid (NO, Stickstoffmonoxid) eine wichtige Funktion bei der Regulierujng des Kreislaufsystems, indem es als Signalmolekül für Nerven und als Waffe gegen Infektionen dient.

Sports Tuesday, March 11, 2003 SCIENCE Nobel laureates oppose war against Iraq By Belle Dumé Forty-one American Nobel laureates have signed a declaration opposing war with Iraq. The declaration was organized by Walter Kohn, a theoretical physicist at the University of California at Santa Barbara, and former adviser to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency at the Pentagon. The signatories include 19 winners of the physics prize. The declaration reads: The undersigned oppose a preventive war against Iraq without broad international support. Military operations against Iraq may indeed lead to a relatively swift victory in the short term. But war is characterized by surprise, human loss and unintended consequences. Even with a victory, we believe that the medical, economic, environmental, moral, spiritual, political and legal consequences of an American preventive attack on Iraq would undermine, not protect, US security and standing in the world. The signatories include Norman Ramsey, who worked on the Manhattan Project, and Charles Townes, a former research director of the Institute for Defense Analyses at the Pentagon. Townes was also chairman of a federal panel that studied nuclear warheads.

Extractions: President William Jefferson Clinton The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20502 Dear Mr. President: We urge you not to make the decision to deploy an anti-ballistic missile system during the remaining months of your administration. The system would offer little protection and would do grave harm to this nation's core security interests. We and other independent scientists have long argued that anti-ballistic missile systems, particularly those attempting to intercept reentry vehicles in space, will inevitably lose in an arms race of improvements to offensive missiles. North Korea has taken dramatic steps toward reconciliation with South Korea. Other dangerous states will arise. But what would such a state gain by attacking the United States except its own destruction? While the benefits of the proposed anti-ballistic missile system are dubious, the dangers created by a decision to deploy are clear. It would be difficult to persuade Russia or China that the United States is wasting tens of billions of dollars on an ineffective missile system against small states that are unlikely to launch a missile attack on the U.S. The Russians and Chinese must therefore conclude that the presently planned system is a stage in developing a bigger system directed against them. They may respond by restarting an arms race in ballistic missiles and having missiles in a dangerous "launch-on-warning" mode.

Extractions: NO NITRIC OXIDE is a key molecule in the body that causes blood flow into, and prevents blood flow out of, the penis, thus giving an erection. VIAGRA is based on this principle. In women nitric oxide increases sensuality via increasing blood flow through sexual tissue. Certain AMINO ACIDS, taken by mouth, will increase blood nitric oxide levels http://www.nobel.se/medicine/laureates/1998/press.html Animation NOBELFÖRSAMLINGEN KAROLINSKA INSTITUTET for their discoveries concerning "nitric oxide as a signalling molecule in the cardiovascular system". Nitric oxide (NO) is a gas that transmits signals in the organism. Signal transmission by a gas that is produced by one cell, penetrates through membranes and regulates the function of another cell represents an entirely new principle for signalling in biological systems. The discoverers of NO as a signal molecule are awarded this year's Nobel Prize.
