What is migraine?

Migraine is very special variety of "sick headache" and requires special treatment under midical supervision. There are different forms of migraine, but there is a definite pattern underlying all. An attack of migraine starts with some alteration of vision, followed by a well localised severe headache which may end in nausea and vomiting. The whole thing is caused by a poorly understood disorder of the blood vessels. There are special drugs, mostly derivatives of ergot, which are effective, especially if used when the first signs of an attack appear. although there is a direct physical cause for an attack, it is also certain that some of the trouble in psychological tenseness. People with migraine are often rather anxious, striving and perfectionist. A psychological treatment helping the patient to cope up with his personal problem could mitigate migraine.

The combination of a new drug and a push-button autoinjector device has led to faster relief for migraine sufferers. A London-based pharmaceutical group has eased the pain for sufferers with a device that is simply held to the skin and, at the touch of a button, administers a shot of a novel Imigran drug. When Imigran is administered this way, it provides relief within ten minutes, and the symptoms are completely eliminated within two hours. The autoinjector is specially designed for Imigran by migraineurs; the whole container is a little larger than a pack of cards, and the injector itself is the size of an average felt-tip marker pen. Another cardinal feature is that the syringe and needle are hidden from view throughout the operation.

Who first made the television..?

In April 1925, a small, rather unkempt young man sat on a stand In a London department store, tinkering with an outlandish piece of apparatus which comprised a tea chest, an empty biscuit box and several hat boxes, darning needles, bicycle lamp lenses, valves, discarded electric motors, piano wire, glue, string and sealing wax. He was John Logie Baird, the inventor of television, who had been engaged by the store owner Gordon Selfridge to spend three weeks conducting his experiments in public. Shoppers who paused to watch this noval attraction of the archetype inventor at work were invited to peer through a frame at a distinct image of the letter H flickering on a tiny screen. They did not know it, but those shoppers were the world’s first television viewers. Baird’s technical developments and the parallel research that was going on in America and Britain were already making their own crude receivers when in July 1928, the Daven Corporation of Newark, New Jersay, advertised the first commercially produced television set for sale. Station WGY had already begun transmitting an experimental service of three half-hour programmes a week in May to watchers in Schenectady, New York. On September 11, 1928, the first television play was presented. The following year Baird began an experimental service in London, for which Televisors, as they were called, were available at 25 guineas. The screen was only the size of cigarette card, but could be enlarged to postcard size witha magnifier.
