Create level ground for centuries. The Jararaca, a pit This means that drug developers have had to modify toxins to retain their potency and make them safe for drug use. Our most recent stories are now available on the mobile version of Planet Earth Online. On Saturn the extreme storms that drive the winds are very similar in structure to those on Earth with low pressure systems but it's the source of the energy which sets them apart. UK-led scientists have made a discovery about snake venom that could lead to the development of new drugs to treat a range of life- threatening conditions like cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. The boulderfill gives the structure permeability that eliminates build up of hydrostatic pressure behind retaining structures. Instead of vast bodies of water, the heat driving the storms on Saturn comes from deep within the planets core. In recent times, mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining walls have become popular. Today, hillsides that would otherwise remain unusable can support structures that range from single-family homes to parking lots to multi-story commercial buildings, all thanks to retaining walls. [] Terracon excavated part of the fill behind the MSE wall to relieve some of the earth pressure and to slow down the movement of the wall. A gabion or mattress is a heavy monolithic, gravity unit, able to withstand earth thrust. Water is very good at storing and retaining incoming solar energy and its this along with the moisture that gives storms their awesome power.
