U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) today released the following statement on the Environmental Protection Agency's issuance of a rule regulating greenhouse gas emissions from new power plants:
"We have the technology and know-how to remove nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, and mercury from coal plant emissions and we should do it--we don't have a good way to do remove carbon dioxide from coal. Determining how to regulate carbon dioxide is the job of Congress, not the EPA."
Alexander last year cosponsored the Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011 by Senator Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), which would have prohibited the EPA from regulating greenhouse gas emissions while leaving intact all of the essential provisions of the Clean Air Act, a law that protects Americans from pollution that has direct public health impacts.
Alexander in 2010 cosponsored a resolution of disapproval that would have banned the EPA from moving forward with its planned regulation of greenhouse gas emissions.

The 9th of November Gale
A century ago, one of the deadliest storms to hit the Great Lakes sank 10 freighters and tossed several others ashore, killing at least 250 people. Now, veteran Star journalist John Spears recreates the "white hurricane" of blinding snow and wind in his new ebook, The 9th of November Gale: Death on the Great Lakes in 1913. A gripping account based on contemporary accounts, the subsequent inquest and recent books and research, Spears' book explores the human factor in the disaster — from weather forecasters' apparent indifference to captains' bravado to economic pressures to move cargo. The 9th of November Gale is also a moving tribute to the dead and bereaved, whose memory lingers still.
John Spears has been a reporter at the Toronto Star since 1977, including stints as bureau chief in Halifax and at Toronto city hall. He is currently a business reporter. He first heard about the ninth of November gale from his father, who grew up in Tobermory. He spends as much time as possible by Lake Huron, at the family cottage near Kincardine.

Slingshot Octane Kite
This, in my opinion, is the best C kite on the market. The new flat kites might make these obsolete, but for the time being this is where it at!!! The bar setup for the Octane is the beefiest and safest on the market. However, this kite is for more experienced kiters and not for beginners. Newbies should check out the Turbo Diesel and Fuel kites.

This week Bear Films has two of my favourite things in their action update -- hairy bears and wet hairy bears. Dirk and Kubby are a couple of big hairy bears who are getting it on in the shower. Kubby Loach is the bald cub with the long beard and Dirk Grizzily is his big bear. And this action set is taken from the Bear Films DVD release Bear Voyage 2: Rock the Boat. These two horny, hairy men start making out in the shower, kissing and spraying hot water all over one another. Doesn't wet fur look hot? Then these two men dry off and take it to the bed for some good old fashioned cock sucking, 69ing, and belly rubbing. Kubby climbs on top of Dirk and shoves his ass in Dirk's face while rubbing his hairy belly. Then Kubby sucks his bear's cock before lifting his legs in the air and giving him a feel for his big cock. Kubby rolls Dirk over and fucks his ass some more, giving us a good look at Dirk's very hairy back and ass. If you love watching hairy bears having sex, you're not going to want to miss these two.

If the administration definitely wants Trump health care repeal and replace all the proper intentions, then it would not only be the major aim will be specific to the American folks. ought to contain administration and aim their attention on these forms of companies as nicely: the significant pharmaceutical companies, wellness treatment suppliers and insurers. The listing does not contain insignificant authorized abilities lawyers suing companies on hand about the clock and an additional explanation why wellness treatment fees are out of handle. These suppliers, suppliers, insurers and legislation companies are some of the major good reasons why wellness insurance policies is so high priced. Did you know that there is a restrict on how much insurance policies companies can raise cash on their customers' for the amount of their every month rates?
There is much communicate about tax credits, the growing cost of insurance policies, socioeconomic barriers, and the chance of Medicaid will be phased out completely by the 12 months 2020. these topics raises worry. Where and how are folks going to afford any sort of insurance policies? Exclusively, how will these earning minimal wage and are not part of team protection via their employers' wellness programs afford insurance policies? The previously mentioned problems and authorized jargon in use now are just an additional way to result in confusion.
This is not a tricky fix and just an additional way to maintain the American folks bamboozled and puzzled. A person matter he had done was proper to an extent when insurers use to compute and comply with the underwriting approach. Underwriting approach when insurers gained information and facts from the healthcare information and facts centre to assessment your healthcare history to identify chance tolerance. Nowadays, this approach has been eradicated For that reason, insurance policies companies do not know who they insure that result in rates absurd. A person way to lower rates is yet again only permits the underwriting approach commences yet again. No one ought to be rates are greater than their every month property finance loan, even if the complete spouse and children is insured. Insurers will need to have the liberty to when yet again to assurance folks in excellent wellness and change every month rates dependent on chance things buyers.
The mandates that operates below the Economical Treatment Act guidelines ought to stay intact and no one ought to be refused protection. Everybody ought to even now be capable to get protection no matter of their current conditions and if folks are economically challenged, then there ought to be fiscal guidance obtainable to support folks afford wellness insurance policies. Extra than enough cash is being expended on every thing else, such as protection shelling out and infrastructure, and not enough on humanity. A handful of states so-termed cost sharing reduction initiatives (CSR) which restrictions the amount of cash that folks pay out their deductible and restrictions the highest out of pocket cost that buyers pay out in healthcare charges.
Ohio, California, and Ga to title a handful of with such strategies. In addition, the state of New York, is a perfect illustration for the treatment of their residents who are economically challenged. They have insurance policies obtainable to folks dependent on their profits degree and house dimensions the place consumers pay out every month rates as lower as $ 20.00 per thirty day period. This is God as mindset and caring for these fewer fortunate. Requiring other states to do the identical and use the identical method and guidelines to make wellness insurance policies a lot more cost-effective for residents
God cares for the very poor . "For the oppression of the very poor, the needy for the sighing, Now I will occur," claims the Lord I will place him in the security it yearns "Psalms 12:.? 5. Where is the coronary heart for the very poor

Just like a musical instrument, an optical instrument should be kept in a proper case when being transported, stored, or not in use. You can't put a guitar into a trumpet case, and the same is true with a telescope. Specific telescope models need specific telescope cases. Here at OPT Telescopes, we have what you're looking for. Since one size doesn't "fit all", here's a peek at what each category has to offer.
ScopeGuard Telescope Cases are designed with the safety of your telescope in mind. The cases are built for telescope users by telescope users. ScopeGuard cases are constructed to the highest standards from the best available materials. Each ScopeGuard case is custom built to the standard dimensions of your particular telescope, or customized for your personal needs. Regardless of your requirements, ScopeGuard has a solution to your needs.
Celestron Telescope Cases are offered by Jim's Mobile (JMI) in various sizes which include lockable latches and die-cut foam lining with compartments for telescope, eyepieces, and accessories.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Robert Gammon... there's virtually no difference between the way 2211 Harold was approved and what was planned for Oakland's E 12th parcel. Berkeley property values are nearly double that of Oakland's and so Berkeley was able to squeeze nearly double the benefits from the developer. Wow, how amazing of them. I suppose if developments keep getting torpedoed by "activists" (you champion) in Oakland our property values might just catch up. Then you'll write up a story about how wrong those "activists" are and how proud you are that Oakland got an empty lot developed after sitting empty for a decade. Bleh.
A correction regarding the Berkeley density bonus proposal, which has not yet been passed by the City Council: The idea is to create a City density bonus that would allow developers to receive a density bonus in return for higher affordable housing fee payments into the Housing Trust Fund (HTF). The reason for this is that fees paid into the HTF can be matched with Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits or State funding and result in production of more affordable housing off-site than would be provided on-site to meet the requirements of the State density bonus.
I see from the other comments that opponents of affordable housing requirements for new development claim the authority of economics in support of their position. They fail to consider the economics of land values, however. When a City requires community benefits from new development, as long as the developer knows the requirements in advance the developer can reduce the price they offer for the land by the same amount. Then, as long as the cost of the community benefits is not so high that the land owner won't make money by selling the property for higher density development, the required community benefits will not reduce development or increase rents. Empirical studies of the effects of "inclusionary" housing requirements have mixed results but most find that such requirements have little overall effect on housing production.
It is unfortunate that intellectuals fail to study economics. If Mr. Gammon had studied economics he would realize that the only way to bring down rents is to increase the supply of housing. Otherwise you move into a situation where the government effectively supplies the housing. And government housing has always failed, in every example in the U.S., and in every example in foreign countries. Somehow intellectuals think they are so smart that all they have to do is institute a government program, run by intellectuals who are so smart, that everything is going to be just wonderful. After all, these intellectuals mean well, they have big hearts, and they have rose colored glasses, and they love to go to Starbucks in the morning. Perhaps Mr. Gammon should spend less time at Starbucks and more time in government housing projects.
Let's say you are investing in a builder's company and you want a 10% return on your risky investment. That firm can build 100 units of market-rate housing, but to cost of doing so is $28,000 dollars more because of some so-called "impact" fee - meaning the apartment costs more to build and nothing whatsoever is added to the unit's quality. A 10% return on that $28,000 is $233.00 a month - so to maintain it and pay you, the "market rate" rent will have to increase to get it back. If that rent increase prices the new building's rent rates out of the market, the venture will fail - increasing the risk of your investment causing you to back away. Doesn't anyone see how this will 1) increase rental rates, or 2) impede capital investment capital inhibiting the building of more units? When "market rates" go up, any "affordable" housing rates will be based on the higher overall rates in the area, so they increase, too. It will dry up construction, investment capital or drive rental rates higher so those not "in" on affordable housing will pay through the nose, while even those on the "affordable" bandwagon will pay more. Gammon crows about a $310 million bond measure in San Francisco. That might build 800 or so units - a drop in the bucket in that market, making almost no impact on the overall rental crisis there - a crisis caused by rent control meddling. This is social meddling with a market-driven economy - and this "Robin Hood" mentality of robbing the rich to benefit the poor is destined to fail just as it has everywhere.
Persons of a certain race are often described as suspects in a great majority of crimes in Berkeley and Oakland. What does Jim Chanin have to say about that fact? How about you, Robert? Even Black police officers profile persons of their own race.
If you saw a tiger strolling down the block, would you give it the benefit of the doubt in that it wouldn't attack or kill you? Behavior is usually shaped and modified by experience, knowledge, and statistics. It is simply human nature but I know, it doesnt fit your narrative.
"Richmond does have a youth curfew."
It's a daytime curfew -- essentially an anti-truancy provision, not a tough-on-crime law. Daytime curfews are a means of keeping kids in school, and are often embraced by progressives, especially when the kids are taken to a community youth center -- as they are in Richmond -- rather than being arrested. Even Richmond's then-progressive mayor, Gayle McLaughlin, wholeheartedly supported it.
I'm a huge Magnus fan; he did great work, as did those working with him. And if anything it was a harder task in Richmond; look up the history of the Cowboys there.
But the analysis is a bit odd. Aside from sneer quotes about crime, there are some strange inaccuracies. First, RPD does stop and frisk. Every police agency does. And has done so since like forever. Probably happening as we speak. The key is HOW it's done, and no mention of that.
And I dunno whether Mr. Gammon has inside info on Chief Magnus' thought processes, but Richmond does have a youth curfew, and does enforce it. http://richmondconfidential.org/2011/10/06… Perhaps since then the Chief repudiated that curfew, but it would behoove Mr. Gammon to note that, and why it happened.
And it would have been worth noting that San Jose did employ one of the first chiefs, McNamara, who pioneered community policing hereabouts, clamped down on his own force's misconduct, instituted more diversity in hiring, etc. Yet San Jose has backside mightily. So perhaps more than a good chief is needed.
And finally, I don't see the irony of the Chief decamping to Tucson. Tucson is a solidly liberal college town, not too different from Berkeley. I agree with Mr. Gammon that it's a shame that the Chief didn't bring his skills to other departments near here, but one must also recognize that he did use some of the same tools as many other departments, and that pretending he didn't stop and frisk youth curfew violators, etc, is mythologizing the personality at the expense of the facts.
As usual, this is more rant than informative. Explaining "progressive policing" in depth, the origin and the ways it is put into practice through specific behaviors would have have been less self-indulgent and more educational. Yawn.

See those ads for Lockheed's new fighter jet on this page? Amazed that EBX takes money from big defense.
Amazing hypocrisy!
Maybe this explains why California is the only oil producing state that doesn't have an oil depletion tax. Even in the lowest point when we had to cut funds from the neediest, he would not consider such a tax.
What he did Gary Patton,was to take the funds from all seven redevelopment districts to his downtown project . Forrest City is an international developer got the land literally free and then was given a subsidy to develop it .I was the chair of the Project Action Committe for North Oakland and resigned becuase of his actions. He is and has alway been a tool...His friends that redid the Fox had a 30 millio cost over run and that was to build and attach Jerry's private school to the Fox. Make no mistake Charters are privates and this small town now has 26% of its students in charters. What makes Jerry's two so egregious that when I was an administrator at Tech we made do with half the funding per pupil that Jerry pushed into his schools. The Arts school has a curriculum that should be in every damn public school. This is literally the case with all of them. What happened to the idea of Building the Common in this town, this country? Our schools were at the heart of it. We at Tech showed you could bring a school back by mentoring new teachers with skilled vetrans and building community among your studnets and staff. It worked well and continues too.
When are these money grubbers going to learn that we can't buy more water if it isn't falling from the sky, we can't revive an extinct species once we kill it off, and we have no other environment we can "move" to once they have traded clean air and water for all the money?
I'm not much of one to favor a recall effort, except in this case. It's past time for the Governor to go. Between this and his twin tunnels, he's ruining California.
Why is anyone surprised? Jerry Brown has been out for himself since he was Mayor of Oakland. He sacrificed a new A's downtown ballpark so that Forest City (developer who acquired the site) would deliver southern California votes for him in his anticipated run for the Attorney General office. The two local Oakland developers (Phil Tagami and John Protoppapas) who clearly had inside advantages when Jerry occupied the Mayors office, it now turns out, are also his business partners. As Mayor, Jerry used the Redevelopment process more than anybody to push his downtown Oakland 10K agenda. However, as soon as he got to Sacramento as Governor and needed to balance his budget, he abolished Redevelopment statewide and kept all of the money that would have gone back to cities in tax increment. Jerry, like Willie Brown is a master at walking up to and sometime stretching the line of conflict of interest, if there is a possibility of personal gain. Citizens should not be naive, he is who he has shown us he is.
Brown is on the payroll of the oil corporations and is not working for Californians.
"The average Berkeley home costs nearly twice as much as one in Oakland."
That's quite a nice statement coming directly from Mars or Pluto.
For much of Oakland, excluding Deep East, median listing prices this year are mid $500K. For much of Berkeley, excluding the hills and parts of North Berkeley, median listing prices this year are mid $500K. This can be looked up easily on the 'net.
What the cities of Berkeley or Oakland have or haven't done has only minor effects overall on the cost of housing. It's all about regional supply and demand.
I do not think I was guilty of confirmation bias, but if you think so, fine. I am not 100% objective, nor is anyone I have ever met.
I was pointing out the incredible lack of objectivity in one source (affordable housing organization trying to show how it can be good for a builder) and the irrelevancy of the Atlanta study to the concept of segregation and how it may or may not progress.
I do not know Ms. Flynn, nor do I know her "narrative." What I know is she said that Oakland does not have an affordable housing issue. I do not agree with that at all and I believe she misspoke, was mistaken, or was misunderstood.
I think you may be agreeing with me on the process of gentrification. Right now, there is significant segregation in the the areas being discussed. As it becomes gentrified, it will be more diverse. And, in a later stage, it could go the other way again.
My stake? Not as much as you may think. I do not work in anything remotely close to real estate, construction, development, politics &power, etc. I am a homeowner. I do not have a "dog in this fight." And, I intend to stay where I am until I am no longer living - so real estate prices are not important to me. I am not selling and will not be selling (addressing "clouded by greed").
I am simply tiring of all the vilification going on and watching people get twisted up in trying to "stop gentrification." I believe that economic forces (the nature of economics, not power brokers) are powerful and cannot be wished away.
Is there a city in America that has faced a tightening, escalating real estate market with the associated phenomenon of gentrification that has "solved the problem?" I see a lot of finger pointing in this thread but no answers.
In general, I believe that the leadership of this city is pathetic. It may be a point of agreement. There may be some I would vilify because the level of corruption and lack of focus is pretty ridiculous here. I do not know our Mayor but I do not have a sense of either with her. She may or may not agree with you (or me), but my sense is she is an honest, hard working, experienced person seeking to lead in a very complicated and difficult set of circumstances. And, we need leadership like that.
"Confirmation bias, also called myside bias, is the tendency to search for, interpret, prefer, and recall information in a way that confirms one's beliefs or hypotheses while giving disproportionately less attention to information that contradicts it." -Wikipedia
Pot, meet kettle. "It seems to" you Michael....and what exactly pray tell might be your bias and agenda? Those articles I cite are articles on research with links to the original sources. And my intent was to share the information since it runs entirely contrary to the dominate narrative being peddled by folks like you and Ms Flynn. I'm sorry I don't trust your agenda or your judgement. I think its clouded by greed.
I guess some things are just self evident and don't require academic researchers to confirm it, like the fact that gentrification is a process, not a person. Or the observation that communities classified as being in the late stage of gentrification are significantly less socioeconomically diverse at present and still increasingly so.
As if the average Oaklander can't look outside their window and see it for themselves. Yes, self-evident, its a thing. Look it up. How stupid do you think we are? Gentrification is a process enabled and encouraged by very real public policies that have been made and continue to be made by the people you claim I'm vilifying, our political representatives. And if you think their hang wringing is merely due to the fact that there are not actual answers to the problem rather than intense lobbying from real estate interests such as the East Bay Rental Housing Association and the Urban Land Institute that are hoping to profiteer from real estate in Oakland, than I also have a magic wand to sale you. Its a great deal! With one gesture, it will make invisible all affordability issues. Just curious Michael, what is your actual stake in affordable housing? Landlord, renter, humble homeowner or employed in the real estate/ finance sector? Just curious since we are talking about confirmation bias to which you apparently believe that you are immune.
I do agree with you in that, as long as monied interests continue to get away with insisting on representation from our political representatives and city staff that ensures their profits ahead of policies that would benefit workaday Oaklanders, it really is all just a waste of time.
Sorry, I did not check on the corrections made by the spell checker. I meant unvetted, not unveiled.....
Chanty Nok may benefit from developing a deep understanding of "confirmation bias." If you "Google" long enough you can find a point of view or a piece of the fact base that agrees with what you are trying to prove. Then present it. "See, I was right"
The most recent post is a classic example.
The 2 citations are actually just articles that are citing/linking to something else. If you trace back far enough, you can find the original source.
The first can be traced back to a professor that has studied Atlanta. Fair enough. It looks like the laws of economics are at work. If you develop more housing that is higher end, it is more expensive. The smart money seeks more money and more expensive housing is built.
Yes. Therefore? The lead in to Chanty Nok's post is "Evidence that gentrification promote segregation...." There is nothing in that article that discusses the relationship between segregation and gentrification. A word such of the article does not produce the word segregation......not even once.
It seems to me that if you start with a neighborhood that is mostly poor and black and some wealthier whites move in (that is what is being discussed here, isn't it? Otherwise segregation would not be brought up) then the neighborhood is less segregated. if that continues then the mix becomes more of a mix, not less of a mix. Perhaps, years from now, there is a tipping point and it starts going the other way. Years away and the activity in the meantime is less segregation.
Oh, and I do not think the citations related to this study provide a compare and contrast with what happens if you do not build any new, more expensive housing. Is that better? Maintain the status quo? Let things go into further decline? No discussion of choices and the consequences of the choices.
The second link shows you that someone out there developed a computer spreadsheet model with assumptions. With the "right" assumptions, such as a 10% profit goal, it shows that affordable housing can work for a developer. Well, what do you know? The source of all this wisdom is an organization called "Cornerstone Partnership". Their URL is "affordable ownership.org" - so they have a bias and an agenda they want to advance. This is not science or proof of anything in particular. Unveiled, untested assumptions, used in an untested, unveiled model.
(see above, confirmation bias)
Perhaps our city leaders can provide a better answer than letting economic forces play out with no intervention. Perhaps they can help move things to a better place.
Rather than spending time vilifying the realities of economics or "gentrifiers", it may provide benefit to better define problems (without words designed to create negative emotion) and offer solutions. I do not have any magic to offer, I am not a city planner either, but that seems to be a better use of time and energy.

Open access articles are more immediately recognised and cited than non-open access publications. A study of citations to 1,500 open access and non-open
access articles adds to the evidence that open access speeds up the dissemination and uptake of scientific findings.
The study compared citations compiled by Thomson Scientific to
open access and non-open access articles published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), between June and December 2004. PNAS
introduced its open access option for authors on the 8th June 2004.
The results show that articles originally published in the journal as open access articles were twice as likely to be cited 4-10 months
after publication than non-open access articles. In addition, articles first published as open access had more impact and were more frequently cited than articles
that were self-archived in open archives later on.
Research articles in all the journals published by BioMed Central are open access and permanently available online,
for all to read and use free of charge. To enjoy the benefits of publishing in an open access journal published by BioMed Central, submit your next manuscript using

We are pleased to announce the launch of four new open access, peer-reviewed, online journals: Cell Division;
Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration; Philosophy, Ethics, and Humanities in Medicine; and World Journal of Emergency Surgery.
Cell Division aims to publish articles on all exciting aspects of cell-cycle research and to bridge the gap between
models of cell-cycle regulation and cancer biology. The Editors-in-Chief, Michele Pagano and Philip Kaldis, are supported by an international Editorial Board.
Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration considers articles encompassing all aspects of scientific
information management and studies of scientific practice, with a particular emphasis on biomedical laboratory investigations. The Editor-in-Chief, Neil Smalheiser, is supported
by an international Editorial Board.
Philosophy, Ethics, and Humanities in Medicine publishes articles encompassing all aspects of the philosophy of medicine and
biology, and the ethical aspects of clinical practice and research. The journal also considers papers at the intersection of medicine and humanities, including the history of medicine, that are relevant
to contemporary philosophy of medicine and bioethics. The journal's Editor-in-Chief is Dan Stein. He is supported by an international Editorial Board.
World Journal of Emergency Surgery is a new journal publishing articles encompassing all aspects of clinical and basic research studies related to emergency surgery (traumatic and non-traumatic)
and its allied subjects. The Editors-in-Chief, Fausto Catena and Ernest Moore, are supported by an international Editorial Board.
Arthritis Research & Therapy features a figure from a recently published article as an image highlight. The latest highlight shows
collagen protein and mRNA expression in cultured rat growth plate chondrocytes. Isolated rat chondrocytes were cultured until confluency.
Protein expression for collagen I, II and X was studied in cultured chondrocytes with type-specific antibodies and using the alkaline-phosphatase-anti-alkaline-phosphatase method. The image comes from an article by
Brochhausen et al. entitled 'Cyclooxygenases and prostaglandin E2
receptors in growth plate chondrocytes in vitro and in situ - prostaglandin E2 dependent proliferation of growth plate chondrocytes'.

New role for interfering RNAs in autoimmune disease?
Arthritis Research & Therapy 2006, 8:R87
Autoantibodies common in systemic rheumatic disease recognise key components of the RNA interference pathway which could potentially implicate an innate anti-viral response in the pathogenesis of autoantibody production.
Low dose aspirin does the job
BMC Medicine 2006, 4:12
Contrary to previous findings, a randomized controlled trial finds that doses of aspirin at 100 mg per day are as beneficial as medium strength aspirin in reducing platelet function following coronary surgery.

We know that our gut bacteria are a fundamental component of our essence. We can no longer separate our gut bacteria from who we are. Out of the emerging research on the microbiota and the microbiome, one thing is perfectly clear — the bacteria in our body outnumber us and probably outperform us.
We house microbes in every part of our body — intestines, skin, mouth, to the tune of 100 trillion. That means that there are more bacterial cells in and on our bodies than there are cells that make up our body, tissues and organs.
Justin Sonnenburg, a microbiologist at Stanford, has said,
we would do well to begin regarding the human body as an elaborate vessel optimized for the growth and spread of our microbial inhabitants.
Interestingly, Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride has been talking about the gut bacteria for years and addressing imbalances in their diversity in her GAPS diet.
Gut Bacteria Perform Foundational Ecosystem Services
To describe what they are finding, scientists are inventing new terms, such as, microbiota (all the microbes in a community) and the microbiome ( their collective genes) and interestingly, ecosystem services (to describe the essential services of the bacteria).
As noted in a previous post about beneficial bacteria, they perform many essential services:
- Microbial communities resist invasion by taking up space in the various niches and creating a space that is unwelcoming to foreign invaders. Balance is essential and research is showing that diversity is critical to good health.
- The microbiota manufacture neurotransmitters, enzymes, vitamins, amino acids and short chain fatty acids — all essential to good physical and mental health. An imbalance in these bacteria could trigger digestive and neurological problems as we see in autism, depression and Alzheimer's — and of course digestive disorders.
- These bacteria produce signaling compounds that regulate appetite, satiety and digestion. Some are associated with obesity.
- The microbiota keep the immune system at an even keel — able to respond to invaders, and also to identify those others (resident bacteria) that are mutually beneficial to the host. A problem here could be at the core of autoimmunity.
The Microbiota Do the Job Better
One theory to explain why all these important ecosystem services have been farmed out to bacteria is because they can evolve ever so quickly.
In many strains, there is a new generation in 20 minutes — a generation that can adapt to a new environment. These bacteria can trade genes and pieces of DNA — to fight off a new invader or a toxic food particle.
With this rate of evolution, they can survive the constant threats and challenges of the ever changing environment.
According to Joel Kimmons, a nutrition scientist and epidemiologist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta,
The bacteria in your gut are continually reading the environment and responding… They're a microbial mirror of the changing world. And because they can evolve so quickly, they help our bodies respond to changes in our environment.
In the West, we are in the process of destroying our collective microbiome due to lifestyle, poor food quality with toxic additives, drugs, and medications.
Studies of the Microbiome of Isolated Cultures
María Gloria Dominguez-Bello, a microbiologist at New York University, is studying the gut microbiome of hunter gatherers in the Amazon in order to determine what a clean microbiome would look like.
We want to see how the human microbiota looks before antibiotics, before processed food, before modern birth… These samples are really gold.
She is finding that these samples have much greater biodiversity and higher levels of prevotella (these like fiber) bacteria than in the West. Interestingly, these Amerindians have much lower rates of allergies, asthma, atopic disease and chronic diseases.
No surprise there.
Jeff Leach is busy mapping the diversity of the human gut with his American Gut project. He will also be able to compare the gut in the Western world with the Hadzabe hunter-gatherers in Tanzania who he has been studying.
These folks still hunt and forage many of the animals and plants that their/our ancestors ate, are covered in the same soil, drink the same water, and follow more or less a seasonal hunter-gatherer lifestyle that dominated the last two million plus years of human evolution.
In describing the procedure of the Hadza hunters in preparing a newly killed impala, Leach gives some insight into the extent of their exposure to all sorts of bacteria:
As they slowly and methodically dismembered the animal, they carefully placed the stomach and its still steaming contents on the fleshy side of the recently removed hide. In a separate area, they piled the fatty internal organs (which men are only allowed to eat by the way). Once the animal had been processed more or less, I was amazed to see all three men take a handful of the partially digested plant material from the recently removed stomach to scrub off the copious amounts of blood that now covered their hands and foreman's. This was followed by a final "cleaning" with dry grass for good measure.
No antibacterial soap for the Hadza! It should be very interesting to see what their gut microbiome looks like!
Most Scientists Agree Western Diet Alters Gut Microbiome
Since scientists are reluctant to make statements that are not backed up by tons of studies, they hold back. But most agree that the Western diet is changing the gut microbiome in negative ways due to:
- Ingesting antimicrobials with meals
- Sterilized foods
- Processed foods with toxic additives that damage the gut lining mucosa, such as lecithin, Datem, CMC and polysorbate 80 — which may lead to inflammation and leaky gut.
- Lack of fiber
- Inflammation as a common denominator for chronic disease — inflammation which begins in the gut
How To Nurture Your Microbiome
Michael Pollan, in this New York Times article in May 2013 called Some of my Best Friends are Germs — asked the scientists working on these projects how to nurture your microbiome — but none wanted to make recommendations for the average person.
Pollan asked instead about how they have changed their lifestyle in light of all their research. This is what they said:
- They area slower to use antibiotics
- They are less stringent about hygiene regiments in the home
- They are encouraging play in the dirt and with animals
- They area eliminating processed foods
- They use prebiotics — foods likely to encourage the growth of good bacteria
- They are adding fermented foods to their diet
- They are increasing the diversity of plants foods in the diet (for fiber)
Interestingly, he quoted a gastroenterologist at the University of Pittsburgh — Dr. Stephen O'Keefe,
The big problem with the Western diet… is that it doesn't feed the gut, only the upper G I. All the food has been processed to be readily absorbed, leaving nothing for the lower G I. But it turns out that one of the keys to health is fermentation in the large intestine.
Now that is something that is exactly the opposite of the SCD or GAPS diet — where we try to limit any fermentation in the large intestine and so starve out the bacteria. In these diets, it is very important to supplement with probiotic foods that have the good bacteria.
Pollan goes on to say,
And the key to feeding the fermentation in the large intestine is giving it lots of plants with their various types of fiber, including resistant starch (found in bananas, oats, beans); soluble fiber (in onions and other root vegetables and nuts); and insoluble fiber (in whole grains, especially bran and avocados).
However, some people do much better without all that fiber — especially from grains. I hope this new research will explain this and why many people with damaged guts do so well on the SCD and GAPS diets — diets low on fermentable starches.
Feed Your Microbiome
We know how to feed our microbiome already — real food eaters have been saying this for years. Jeffrey Leach at American Gut has several suggestions for us based on his own research.
Of critical importance is the addition of fermented foods and beverages that add strains of bacteria and yeasts.
Start to introduce homemade yogurt, coconut milk yogurt, kefir, kombucha, beet kvass, sauerkraut, and pickles just to name a few. Incorporate these fermented foods into your diet in small portions at first as they pack a powerful amount of bacteria that can set off a Herxheimer reaction, or die-off, if introduced too quickly.
Those folks with a damaged microbiome may need more targeted treatments that restore the microbiome, such as Helminthic Therapy and Fecal Microbial Transplantation.
You Can Change Your Microbiome in Just Weeks or A Few Months!
With bacteria having the ability to reproduce every 20 minutes, you CAN change your microbiome in just a matter of weeks or months if you focus on eating bacteria-rich foods.
Cultured foods are a traditional way of preserving food and getting beneficial bacteria into the gut consistently.

Pin-pin collision detection and response
Collision detection via meshes, and rough calculation of post-impact velocities.
Over the past couple weeks I've been developing a method to detect collisions between pins, modeling them as meshes. I'm also thinking about describing the pins as parametric surfaces, but that's another can of worms. The radius of the pin is defined at 15 heights as specified by the USBC:
These radii, heights, and the number of desired lines of longitude are fed into a custom cylinder-mesh-generation function:
function [x y z] = mycylinder(r,zIn,nLong) for i=1:length(r) for j=0:nLong x(i,j+1) = r(i)*cos(2*pi*j/nLong); y(i,j+1) = r(i)*sin(2*pi*j/nLong); z(i,j+1) = zIn(i); end end
For example, here is a pin mesh composed of the 15 prescribed radii and heights and 25 lines of longitude:
Collision is deemed to have occurred if the distance between any node on 1 pin is sufficiently close to any node on another pin:
distance(i,j) = dx^2 + dy^2 + dz^2;
Here is an example of collision detection for 2 roughly-meshed pins:
Computing the post-impact velocities is rather complicated for general bodies. The dynamics in this example aren't quite right yet, but it looks believable:

| Hot Off the Presses
Set a Newspaper Zombie's newspaper on fire
Difficulty: Extremely easy
Hot Off the Presses is an achievement in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It is achieved by setting a Newspaper Zombie's newspaper on fire, meaning that the player must let a fire plant (e.g. Pepper-pult) attack a Newspaper Zombie. It is worth 5 points on Game Center for iOS devices and 500 XP on Google Play Games for Android devices.
Its name is a reference to the term "hot off the presses," meaning a very recently printed news article.
Just go into a level with Newspaper Zombie, then choose fire plants such as Snapdragon and use them to attack the zombie. This can be done easily in Modern Day - Day 3.
- The newspaper on the icon burns differently than the newspaper in the game.

There are very few things that make a cold, blustery winter day better than a nice hot bowl of soup! Broccoli Cheese Soup is one of my many favorites, and it's one of the easiest to make!
Oftentimes, we are able to find fresh broccoli for 99¢/pound. Pair that with homemade chicken stock, and you've got yourself a frugal, flavor packed, meatless meal.
For a special touch, serve in a homemade bread bowl.
- 4-5 cups finely chopped broccoli
- 2 carrots; shredded
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 2 Tbsp. Flour
- ½ block Velveeta
- 1 cup shredded Colby Jack
- In a stock pot, add the chicken broth, milk, and flour. Whisk the flour until it is fully incorporated, then add in broccoli.
- Cook until broccoli begins to soften a bit, and mixture starts to thicken.
- Add in the Velveeta, and Colby Jack cheese. Let the cheese fully melt, then toss in the shredded carrots.
- Cook soup for an additional 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to fully mesh, and the carrots to cook.
- Enjoy!

Type of works: supply of EcoCooling's down-discharge ECP evaporative coolers.
Merck Sante, based in the French city of Orleans, manufactures and distributes pharmaceutical products. Their main warehouse is required to operate under the conditions of controlled room temperature which for their range of products is less than 25°C.
Eighteen down-discharge EcoCooling ECP16000 evaporative coolers were installed feeding high-level plenum chambers. These positively pressurise the warehouse and air is extracted using automatic vents.
The coolers are all linked to a common control panel. Temperature is monitored at three levels in the warehouse and the coolers controlled accordingly. A humidistat ensures that the internal humidity does not exceed 85%. All coolers are linked to the fire-alarm system for automatic shutdown.
The principle of mean kinetic temperature can be applied to pharmaceutical storage using the Arrhenius Equation. The graph shows that on a 40°C day the ambient MKT is 33°C. The output of an evaporative cooler in these conditions gives a MKT of 25°C, which meets the storage criteria for this range of pharmaceutical products.
