This article is taken from online news:
"PARIS (AFP) - - The night sky will sparkle with "falling stars" on Tuesday and Wednesday as Earth passes through a trail of dusty debris from the Swift-Tuttle Comet, say scientists.
The light show, called the Perseid meteor shower, kicks off each year in late-July and increases in intensity, peaking a couple of weeks later.
On a clear night in a dark sky "you should see dozens of meteors per hour," notes Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office.
East Asia is best placed to see the shower at its most intense moment, which is predicted for 1800 GMT on August 12, according to the US publication Sky and Telescope (skyandtelescope.com).
The meteors are also active for many days before and after this date, though the light reflected by a waning quarter moon may obstruct the view somewhat.
The Perseids occur when Earth runs into a trail of dust and pebbles deposited by the comet Swift-Tuttle in its 130-year orbit around the Sun."
So, did anyone see any 'falling stars'? - GOng

There is less red light reflected from the shallow area between the surface and the vessel than blue light because blue light is scattered more. The surrounding tissue reflects back more red.
This does not make the vessel blue, however. It only makes it look blue. The authors had to use Land's retinex model of color vision to show that the contrast between the two areas of the skin are interpreted by the brain in such a way as to make it look blue. hope this is correct ^^

The entire hair shaft as it grows, as our age of our body stops producing the pigment that gives our hair its color, causing it to turn grey. This is usually a gradual process, but sometimes happens much more quickly for others.^^
