Farming: More Fertilizer Can Even Eliminate Tyield Loss Caused By Excess Pre-Season Rain
People Are Living Longer And Better Than Ever But A Sociologist Says There Are Warning Signs About The Future
There are two issues to think about. One is that diagnoses don't mean much. If you get a diagnosis of chronic lyme disease, it does not mean that is suddenly a real disease, and life expectancy is basically meaningless.
Lower Risk Of Alzheimer’s Correlated To Higher Omega-3 DHA Levels
A new paper correlates people with a higher red blood cell (RBC) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA levels as 49% less likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease vs. those with lower levels, especially for those carrying the ApoE4 gene, which is also a risk factor for Alzheimer's. You know that correlation is not causation so modifying two risk factors with unclear biological meaning may or not be better than doing nothing and hoping for the best.
Long COVID Linked To Higher COVID Specific T Cells
The study found that patients suffering from long COVID symptoms had virus-specific T cell levels more than 100 times higher than those who recovered from the disease.

Is The Axial Higgs Mode An Explanation For Dark Matter?
It also does not work at the very small. Various bits of speculation, hypothesis, and science-fiction have tried to account for macro effects and they get lumped under generic blanket terms like 'dark matter' and 'dark energy' but experimental physics leads the charge in turning science from fantasy into reality. A new paper has made a step closer to understanding the quantum excitation known as the axial Higgs mode, which unlike the Higgs Boson has a magnetic moment. There is no end to theoretical claims about an axial Higgs mode but reality has been more elusive.
Russia Has Europe In Such A Panic About Food Prices They're Embracing Genetic Engineering And Modern Pesticides
If so, it was a reasonable gamble. After the last fight in Ukraine, Germany and Europe so desperately wanted to avoid conflict with Russia they ignored their own environmental laws and promised to fast-track a pipeline that went from Russia to Germany, bypassing Ukraine entirely. They were already buying a large percentage of their food from the east because, with a wave of the pen, a large amount of Russian food became "certified" organic - and Europe does no surprise spot testing to see if food really only uses ancient pesticides and genetic engineering techniques.
Glaxo Drug Shows 100% Remission in Small Rectal Cancer Trial
And that is the case in a small study (n=18) in New England Journal of Medicine which detailed results of the checkpoint inhibitor dostarlimab. Eight doses over six months at $11,000 per dose means not only sparing patients chemo, radiation, and surgery, it means saving the health care system millions per patient.
For Electric Cars To Be Viable, Charging Station Locations Need To Be Optimized
The Second MODE Workshop On Experimental Design
In California, Bees Are Legally Fish
When it comes to science, though, it's all weird. We charge more for cars that help nothing in emissions, we have 100,000 cancer warning labels on everything from coffee to corkboards, and we have to get exemptions from EPA to have unlimited natural gas pollution because we mandate and subsidize solar that doesn't work, and we can't allow rich people in Malibu to have brownouts.
But legally declaring that bees are fish is next level kooky, even for America's most anti-science state.

Black Holes And The Creation Of The Universe
The birth and ultimate fate of the 13.7 billion year old universe is a subject that has intrigued scientists since the dawn of civilization.
Stop Eating Affordable Vegetables, It’s Just Too Dangerous. Claims Organic Industry Funded Paper
A recent paper senior author'ed by famed organic industry proponent Dr. Michael N. Antoniou raised an alarm about insecticide
and herbicide residues found in the fecal microbiome of 65 twins in the United
Kingdom. The big problem with it is that it preys on modern science journalists not knowing that dose matters. Any detection of any chemical that can kill a rat at high doses is correlated to pathology in humans, despite that being nothing close to reality.
DNA Repair Genes May Be Why More Smokers Don't Get Lung Cancer
Yet it is not a magic bullet. Only 10 percent of smokers will get lung cancer, which does not sound like a lot, but it is actually a high amount - greater than alcohol or obesity. Yet it is so obviously toxic it seems like the cancer rates should be much higher.

Media Hype Creates Demand For Black Market Knockoffs Of Molnupiravir And Nirmatrelvir
COVID-19 caused numerous parts of culture to flip. In the United States, the left abandoned their historical anti-vaccine camp while the right took up the old 'needs more testing' position of their opposition. The poor began to feel like the rich were given early access to treatments and even that some treatments were being casually dismissed by epidemiologists without being tested enough. That has led to a black market. In England, a website for molnupiravir offers patients generic versions online without medical supervision.
Sweden Has Gender Equality But Other Discrimination
Sweden is often lauded for its gender equality. The gender gap in unpaid (house)work is narrow.
Wind Energy Can't Blackstart A Dead Grid - Here Is What Can Help
With conventional energy, grid failures are not only far less a concern, they are readily recoverable. The normal step-by-step recovery process takes time but is all relatively easy to control. Start up the turbines, use them to spin generators and watch the electrons flow steadily and predictably to re-energize a grid and withstand short circuits and other faults.
Metonymy: Why A Word Like 'Gate' Added Lets People Know It's A Scandal
On June 17, 1972, Washington, D.C., police arrested five men for breaking into the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee. Although the administration’s press secretary, Ron Ziegler, dismissed the crime as a “third-rate burglary,” its scope would grow to consume Richard Nixon’s presidency and then bring it to an end 26 months later.
