    1. Along with bagels, smoked meat has been popular in Montreal since the 19th century and is identified as emblematic of the city's cuisine.

    1. Although illiterate, the prisoners were forced to sign labor contracts, often including stipulations that they would be subject to the same conditions as other prisoners,

      He took advantage of that the slaves can't read to make them do things

    2. At this time, residents of Barbour County were notorious for kidnapping and selling African Americans into bondage,

      So little of this history is erased by the United States and they replace this knowledge with enforcing the idea that slavery ended in 1865

    1. More than 25 percent of the state's revenue in 1910 was derived from leasing African-American convicts to private enterprises.

      25% of the state being built on a hostage work force is wild. And this obviously clashes with the idea that these were "Self-made" men

    2. The disfranchisement of blacks by the 1901 constitution and suffrage amendment had reduced the Republican Party as an active force in the state. For more than 60 years, until federal civil rights legislation was passed to enforce the constitutional rights of African Americans in the mid-1960s, Alabama was essentially a one-party state, with elections won in the Democratic primaries.

      This shows how these problems still persist into living memory. The disenfranchisement of Black and colored is still a problem to this day, and didn't simply end on a single day during the civil rights movement.

    3. Avondale Mills had declared $55,000 in profit and produced almost 8,000,000 yards of material. By the turn of the century, Avondale Mills had set the course for future development.

      Its hard to defend the "Self Made Man" claim when all of his industries are built on the backs of other5 people who will never see the profit and he will never see their work

    4. . He increased funding for the public school system, resulting in more rural schools and high schools in each county for white students and a rise in the state's literacy rate.

      It is interesting how his page starts and includes so many positive accomplishments. This seems to almost direct attention away from his negative actions and legacy.

    1. Cena moved to California in 1998 to pursue a bodybuilding career and switched to professional wrestling in 1999, making his debut for Ultimate Pro Wrestling (UPW).

      ,

    1. switch from carbohydrate metabolism to lipid metabolism for cellular energy supply.[30][31][32] This metabolic switch limits anaerobic metabolism and the formation of lactate, a herald of poor prognosis and multi-organ failure (MOF) after I/R injury. In addition, the increase in lipid metabolism generates ketone bodies and activates peroxisome proliferating-activated receptors (PPARs), both of which have been shown to be protective against I/R injury

      BOOM. KETO and KETO AS AGING TREATMENT.

    2. Superoxide dismutase edit Superoxide dismutase is an effective anti-oxidant enzyme which converts superoxide anions to water and hydrogen peroxide. Recent researches have shown significant therapeutic effects on pre-clinical models of reperfusion injury after ischemic stroke

      MITOCHONDRIA TREATMENT

    3. resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction and collapse. Upon collapse, the calcium is then released to overwhelm the next mitochondria in a cascading series of events that cause mitochondrial energy production supporting the cell to be reduced or stopped completely

      Wow.. Widespread mitochondrial death. This explains the need for necessary recovery period for mitochondria to be reproduced. Also makes clear an obvious mechanism why aerobic training, which increases mitochondria numbers, substantially increases aerobic endurance & speed, reduction in both ROS and Lactic Acidosis, thus pain, disease, and early death.

    4. brain ischemia/reperfusion injury is mediated via complex I redox-dependent inactivation.[5] It was found that lack of oxygen leads to conditions in which mitochondrial complex I loses its natural cofactor, flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and become inactive.[6] When oxygen is present the enzyme catalyzes a physiological reaction of NADH oxidation by ubiquinone, supplying electrons downstream of the respiratory chain (complexes III and IV). Ischemia leads to dramatic increase of succinate level.[7] In the presence of succinate mitochondria catalyze reverse electron transfer so that fraction of electrons from succinate is directed upstream to FMN of complex I.[8] Reverse electron transfer results in a reduction of complex I FMN, increased generation of ROS, followed by a loss of the reduced cofactor (FMNH2) and impairment of mitochondria energy production.[8]

      There's the observed metabolic "mitochondrial" disorder seen in LC

    1. upregulating SASP by induction of interferon type I.[

      IFN inactivates cells. Therefore viruses inactivate cells. CD4 T (helper) cells therefore love to inactivate cells. Cytokines therefore inactivate cells. Immune response cells thus inactivate cells. ROS, inflammation, hypoxia, therefore inactivate cells.

    1. The law in many countries allows users certain rights over data whose copyright they do not own (including text, images, and other media), often under headings such as fair use or public interest. Depending on jurisdiction, these may cover issues such as whistleblowing, production of evidence in court, quoting or other small-scale usage, backups of owned media, and making a copy of owned material for personal use on other owned devices or systems. The steps implicit in trusted computing have the practical effect of preventing users exercising these legal rights.
    1. When the blood flow decreases so does the destruction of aldosterone by liver enzymes

      Micro thrombosis would cause aldosterone buildup....and liver dysfunction, eg ammonia buildup, blood toxins buildup, brain swelling and neurotoxic dysfunction

    1. Gilles Deleuze cites Eco's 1962 book The Open Work approvingly in his seminal 1968 text Difference and Repetition, a book which poststructuralist philosopher Jacques Derrida is said to have also taken inspiration from

      [[Difference and Repetition - Wikipedia]] v Gilles Deleuze refs The Open Work by Umberto Eco.

    1. Calling attention to the importance of "social forgetting", historian Guy Beiner has argued that "there is an evident need for major historical studies of lieux d’oubli to counterbalance the studies of lieux de mémoire."[11]

      What about the idea of "social ignorance" or maybe "social blindness" as American seems to have done with slavery in the post-Civil War to roughly the early 1990s?

    2. A lieu de mémoire (French for "site of memory" or memory space) is a physical place or object which acts as container of memory.[1] They are thus a form of memorialisation related to collective memory, stating that certain places, objects or events can have special significance related to group's remembrance.

      This feels like it's tangential to memory palaces, but I'll have to read more of Nora to discern if he had any experience here or if he's simply stumbled upon a related idea, but one which wasn't taken to it's logical extreme.

    1. Anti-folk (sometimes spelled antifolk) is a music genre that emerged in the 1980s in New York City, founded by musician, author and comedian, Lach, as a reaction to the commercialization of folk music. It is characterized by its DIY ethos, unconventional songwriting, and often humorous or satirical lyrics. Antifolk music was made to mock the perceived seriousness of the era's mainstream music scene,[1] and artists aim to protest with their mocking and clever lyrics.[2][3]

      Interesting how artist go back and forth between different styles to reject seriousness. im thinking of the Stiglitz Photo Succession movement, the Pictoralist, and Subjektive Fotografie.
