    1. The expansion of the opioid supply was facilitated by the privatization of poppy fields. The US relies on imports of narcotic raw material, mainly from Turkey and India, to produce legal opioids. Johnson & Johnson, one of the certified importers, sought to change the regulations to allow for more imports from Australia, which would give them a competitive advantage. In the 1990s, Johnson & Johnson lobbied to undermine the "80-20" rule, which stipulated that at least 80% of the narcotic raw material imported into the US had to come from Turkey and India.
    1. One of our favorite sayings is: opt in to complexity. We designed Astro to remove as much “required complexity” as possible from the developer experience, especially as you onboard for the first time. You can build a “Hello World” example website in Astro with just HTML and CSS. Then, when you need to build something more powerful, you can incrementally reach for new features and APIs as you go.
    1. Die EU bezahlt Russland für fossile Brennstoffe mehr, als sie der Ukraine an Finanzhilfen zur Verfügung stellt. 2024 bezog sie für 22 Milliarden Euro Öl und Gas aus Russland und zahlte 19 Milliarden an die Ukraine, wobei Militär- und humanitäre Hilfe nicht einbezogen sind. Insgesamt betrugen die Einnahmen Russlands aus dem Export fossiler Brennstoffe im dritten Jahr der Invasion der ganzen Ukraine 242 Milliarden Euro.

    1. In den Reden der Vertreter:innen von Zentralbanken spielt die Klimakrise seit 2015 eine wichtige Rolle; in etwa einem Drittel der Reden wird sie erwähnt. Drei Wissenschaftlerinnen haben diese Diskurse systematisch untersucht und modelliert. Ob und wie die Klimakrise zum Thema wird, hängt vor allem von den institutionellen Aufgaben der Zentralbanken ab.

      Wirkungen haben diese Reden immer nur kurzfristig dadurch, dass sie die Kurse von „grünen“ Unternehmen steigen lassen.

    1. Private militias have provided criminal groups with greater mobility and fighting power, enabling them to engage in large-scale violence and seek control of criminal markets and territories beyond their home towns. The Mexican case highlights the need for democratic elites to reform authoritarian judicial and security institutions and to punish state agents who protected organized crime, in order to prevent the intertwining of democratic politics and the criminal underworld.
    2. In Mexico, the transition from authoritarian rule to democracy did not introduce major security-sector reforms, making the expansion of OCGs and the outbreak of large-scale criminal violence more probable. Subnational political alternation, particularly the variation in party alternation across subnational regions, can also contribute to the outbreak of criminal wars. The structure of informal networks of government protection for criminals forged during the authoritarian period is crucial in understanding this link.
    1. The Peña Nieto administration in Mexico proposed a government commission to spend $9 billion to combat drug violence in the most violent municipalities. The plan included longer school days, drug-addiction treatment programs, and public-works projects. The administration also focused on disrupting street gangs and criminals hired by cartels, rather than targeting top drug traffickers. However, despite initial gains, violence in rural Mexico surged again by 2017 due to Mexican cartels' increased involvement in the heroin market and the boom in methamphetamine production.
    2. The US government provided funding and training to the Mexican government to fight the cartels, but the efforts were criticized for being ineffective and corrupt. The Mérida Initiative, a $2.3 billion plan, was launched to help Mexico confront threats to its national security, but much of the money went to private US contractor corporations. Corruption was a significant problem, with cartel gunmen killing over 2,200 policemen, 200 soldiers, and scores of federal officials. The cartels also infiltrated the government, with many officials being bribed or working directly for the cartels. The drug trade was linked to Mexico's incomplete transition to democracy, and the cartels took over essential local and regional administrative functions in many regions.

    1. (a) Failing to detect higher MW ions for PE is an indication of a false positive.(b) Using FTIR with low threshold matches increases the risk of false positives (by the way, FTIR only works on particles >10 µm, not nanoplastics).(c) Using microscopy without chemical confirmation of plastic particles and presenting images of unconfirmed plastics is a misleading application of the method.Altogether, these flaws render their results and conclusions fundamentally incorrect at best.

    2. Dusan (Matt) Materic Thanks Dusan. That makes sense. Would it be feasible/worthwhile, to try to replicate their experiment with these three issues addressed? I assume, given Gauert et al's 2025 paper, the results would still be imperfect, even with their "best" method 3 for minimizing lipid issues, but it seems worth re-testing, as an approximation? Based on their comment in the paper "refinements to the analytical techniques, more complex study designs and much larger cohorts are needed" and their response to a comment on an earlier paper, perhaps they would be game to collaborate?https://academic.oup.com/toxsci/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/toxsci/kfae137/7829158 …more Like Celebrate Support Love Insightful Funny Like Reply Gabriel Enrique De la Torre • 3rd+ Microplastics | Plastic pollution | Antifouling paint particles 1w Dusan (Matt) Materic this pretty much summarizes it

    1. Disease: Von-willebrand Disorder Type 2B, Noncanonical

      Patient: 55 YO, Italian male

      Note: these heterozygous variants are in cis mutations

      Variant1: VWF NM_000552.5 c.2771G>A p.(R924Q), in exon 21, D'D3 domain affected

      Variant2: VWF NM_000552.5 c.6532G>T p.(A2178S), in exon 37, D4 domain affected

      Phenotypes: Mucosal and cutaneous bleeding, low VWF antigent and VWF activity, mild thrombocytopenia, increased ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation, deficiency in high-molecular-weight multimers. Epistaxis, repeated GI bleeding, easy bruising, ISTH BAT score of 7.

      Note: Proband initially diagnosed with VWD type 1 in 2010 but later re-diagnosed as VWD-Type 2.

      Family: No reported family history of bleeding, parents unable to be included in family work-up as they were deceased by time of study. Paternity test was performed for family, parental link established. Patient's daughter does not present the same mutation noted in proband but has heterozygous polymorphic variant inherited from mother which is: VWF NM_000552.5 c.3379C>T p.(P1127S), in exon 25. Daughter did not show menorrhagia or hemorrhagic disorder except for large hematoma on the thigh after trauma of moderate intensity.

      Molecular workup: Paternity test, Sanger-sequencing to validate genetic variants, multimer analysis with electrophoresis, platelet aggregation analysis with Ristocetin, electron micrographs to observe conformation differences.

      Prediction workup: Structural analysis with I-TASSER modeling program to identify perturbed structure. A2178S is predicted as tolerated in all in-silico systems used.

      Database Information: Effect of the R924Q mutation is noted in literature database but has contradicting reports of effects altering VWF levels. Some studies do report it as a polymorphic variant

      Variant is present in dbSNP database (rs33978901). MAF in European population 0.01< MAF< 0.02

      Effect of A2178S variant is present in dbSNP database (rs34230288), MAF = 0.02 in European population.

    1. The development of drone warfare is linked to a masculine framework of thinking, where the fleshy body is seen as getting in the way of war. Drones are presented as more reliable, intelligent, and vigilant than humans, and are seen as surpassing all human limitations. This masculine framework is evident in the way drones are represented as "just warriors," more humane in their precision and rational calculations. The relationship between masculinity and vision is also explored, where vision is seen as a way to signify a leap out of the marked body and into the conquering gaze from nowhere.
    1. The technostrategic discourses of drone warfare also distance the use of lethal technology from its deadly consequences, using rational language, euphemism, and abstraction. The altered spatiotemporal experience of drone warfare makes killing easier, but it also raises questions about the masculinity of drone operators. They are often depicted as being in the domestic sphere, juxtaposing their combat experience with running errands for their spouses or coaching a kids' soccer team.
    1. On the path we were on, the sludge had been thickening even under Democratic administrations. There were fundamental systemic flaws that remained unaddressed. Inequalities have continued to widen. Corruption and bribery have worsened. We were on the way to losing our democracy without even knowing it. But, as a friend put it, authoritarian forces have been building for years, “like the pus in an ugly boil,” she said. The only way we work up enough outrage to lance it is for the boil to get so big and ugly that it disgusts all of us.

    1. So what is the central meaning of the word ‘reflexive’ in ‘reflexive moderniz- ation’? 4 ‘Reflexive’ does not mean that people today lead a more conscious life. On the contrary. ‘Reflexive’ signifies not an ‘increase of mastery and consciousness, but a heightened awareness that mastery is impossible’ (Latour, 2003).

    1. It makes a lot of sense to have this different strategy of being rooted in the real physical world and have digital nomads being as like a guild of knowledge workers that seed their specialized knowledge because localism is necessary and good, but it's also not necessarily very innovative. Most people at the local level just keep repeating stuff. It's good to have people coming in from the outside and innovating.

    1. Don’t get me wrong — I’m incredibly excited that the tens of thousands of people that have been harmed by the landfill on Long Island and beyond will get the relief that they deserve. New Yorkers that live in the shadow of the Brookhaven landfill know better than anyone the huge toll a dump has on quality of life. The odor is pervasive, the truck traffic is unbearable, and the health and environmental impacts are extremely detrimental. Neighboring residents have filed a handful of lawsuits against the landfill, which accepts toxic waste, citing the town’s failure to protect residents against toxins from the landfill resulting in cancer and other illnesses.

      There are tens of thousands of people are being harmed by the landfill in ,"Long Island, which their are facing the similar shadow of Brookhaven . The odor is pervasive, the truck is unbearable of dumping garbage causing environmental impacts that detrimental. The residents have filed multiple lawsuits against the landfill, which is full with toxic waste that that the town can't protect the public.

    2. Unfortunately, it’s a story I’m all too familiar with. In Seneca Falls, I’m leading a statewide fight to permanently close the Seneca Meadows landfill. After nearly 40 years of poisoning the region, Seneca Meadows will be reaching its capacity this year, but its for-profit, Texas-based operator applied for a permit to not only extend its operations for another 15 years but grow its massive footprint.

      The waste company wiring with Seneca Meadows doesn't seem to have the same environmental and health concerns as the residents. Wants to extend operations for another 15 yrs which if Brookhaven is to close, could become an option for their waste to be moved.

    1. She said illegal dumping, heavy truck traffic and nearby industrial properties can create an environment where residents feel disconnected with their neighborhood. She also points to health concerns including, “low life expectancy rates due to high rates of cancer, asthma and other respiratory illnesses.”

      The illegal dumping and heavy truck industrial properties can make the community have less communication with one another. There's interaction that there are health issues are being experienced like cancer, asthma and other respiratory illnesses.

    1. Brookhaven Rail has dropped plans to build a waste transfer station next to the Town of Brookhaven landfill in Yaphank, citing opposition and the state legislature’s repeated inaction on legislation needed for the project.

      Brookhaven Rail gives up on building a waste transfer station next to the Town of Brookhaven landfill because the state governing body wouldn't pass legislation.

    1. A group of teachers and students claims the landfill has contaminated the community's air and water. They say the town's promise to finish capping the landfill is not enough.The Town of Brookhaven has said the landfill will be 75 percent capped by mid-February and that it will be closed for good by 2024.In December, area residents reported a strong odor event and Brookhaven officials agreed it was the result of the construction underway to cap a portion of the landfill. But the town says other nearby businesses also contribute to odor problems in the area.Nancy Dodge believes it is not just the air that is contaminated. She says her daughter Skye was also sick the entire time she attended Frank P. Long. Dodge and other residents tested the drinking water provided by the Suffolk County Water Authority. They say test results showed high levels of the radioactive gas radon, which causes lung cancer.

      That the Brookhaven Town dump is, making children sick. Groups of teachers and students had stated that the land is contaminated the towns living condition. The community has demanded the state and the Suffolk county to do something about it. The Town of Brookhaven had told the public that landfill will be 75 percent capped by the middle of february and that it would be closed by 2024. Resident reported a strong odor event of the construction to cap the landfill where the scent was coming from, but town is stated that other businesses are also experiencing the odor problem in their area.

And then at that point, there was a separate human space—it’s the village and the cultivated fields around it.

He identifies agriculture as the first of three major cultural separation events that led to our modern form of alienation - The development of a human place had humble beginnings but today, these places are "human-made worlds" that are foreign to any other species. - The act of settling down in one fixed space gave us a place we can continually build upon, accrue and most importantly, begin and continue timebinding - After all, a library is a fixed place, it doesn't move.

    1. When D. T. Suzuki came to this country later, he said he had a great realization contemplating the Japanese expression, “The elbow does not bend backwards.” The idea is that the elbow only bends inward, bends one way. Is that a limitation of the elbow? Is it a defect? That a really good elbow would bend both ways? Is it a design flaw that we’re stuck with? Instead, it’s a matter of seeing the particular irony in what we would think of as a limitation rather, as a definition, a part of what we intrinsically are, and freedom is not a question of being able to do something, to do anything whatsoever, but to fully function within our design and our capacity.

      quote - The Elbow does not bend backwards - Dasietz Suzuki - Barry Magid - When D. T. Suzuki came to this country later, he said he had a great realization contemplating the Japanese expression, “The elbow does not bend backwards.” - The idea is that the elbow only bends inward, bends one way. Is that a limitation of the elbow? Is it a defect? That a really good elbow would bend both ways? Is it a design flaw that we’re stuck with? Instead, - it’s a matter of seeing the particular irony in - what we would think of as a limitation rather, as a definition, a part of what we intrinsically are, and - freedom is not a question of being able to do something, to do anything whatsoever, - but to fully function within our design and our capacity. - The full freedom of the functioning of the elbow takes place in bending inward, not outward.

      comment - the contradiction of our life is that - the infinite and the finite exist in the same mortal coil - this consciousness which is capable of unlimited imagination - is housed in a fragile, time-limited body - Yet all life exists in the concrete form of living / dying individual's housed in bounded, albeit dynamic bodies - Each of us takes on a unique and specific morphological form, determined by the genetic material passed on to us intergenerationally - Each individual belongs to a unique species, a unique replicable template that is unique - And yet, all life derives from the same reality - So each species, and all individuals belonging to each species, have unique bounded bodies - While that universal wisdom articulates itself uniquely in each species and each individual of a species, it is nonetheless a universal wisdom behind it all - So the elbow does not bend backwards in the human - and the wings flutter only one way in birds - and the fins only project one way in fish - etc, etc.... - Can we trace ourselves from the perceived limited - all the way back to the unlimited infinite? - To be or not to be, that is the question - To be AND not to be, that is the answer

    3. If you’re just sitting in a cave for nine years, desire intelligently doesn’t seem to come into play very much. But if you’re in the world with other people and you’re living a life, how do you desire, how do you connect, how do you attach without greed, without trying to control other people in order to not lose them or lose their love? We have to learn to attach, to desire intelligently, to hold lightly.

    4. Bodhidharma is vast emptiness, nothing holy. The way we usually express a version of that is through the idea of no gain, that there is nothing to fix, nothing to accomplish. I particularly try to express that in a psychological sense in which we don’t have to improve ourselves or fix ourselves or remove any underlying defect or fill in any kind of deficit.

    5. we need to see the two characters, the Emperor and Bodhidharma, as representing two aspects of our self, and as in many koans, our task is to resolve the apparent opposition, or contradiction between the two halves,
