EQUITY is just a one word restatement of the communist motto "from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs". Don't be fooled. Using one word is an attempt to hide the the fact it's a straight line from DEI to Marx and Lenin.

New findings in Science reveal how shape anisotropy and physical interactions govern collective motion in active matter, providing design rules for programmable synthetic materials and insight into bacterial swarms. Learn more in this week's issue: scim.ag/4dByDZM

Salk Institute scientist Shrek Chalasani has been awarded up to $41.3 million from ARPA-H to advance a breakthrough technology he pioneered, sonogenetics, which uses ultrasound to precisely control cells within the body. This funding will help transform the Chalasani lab’s discovery into a potential noninvasive therapy for a range of conditions, including peripheral neuropathies. By enabling targeted control of mammalian cells without surgery, sonogenetics could redefine how we treat disease.

In a new Science study, researchers describe how dynamic and reversible mitochondrial membrane constrictions, called “pearling,” spatially organize mtDNA molecules. The findings reveal a mechanistic link between mitochondrial membrane remodeling and mtDNA biology. 📄: scim.ag/4bW70JD #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/4mhEOV1

The specialized arm that male octopuses use for mating is also a sensory organ that can detect the ovarian hormone progesterone, according to a new Science study. The researchers say the dual-purpose organ offers an example of how sensory adaptations may shape reproductive behavior in ways that can contribute to speciation. 📄: scim.ag/4v4NvWC #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/4maYiKO

@Suzan_Cuul @XHNews and because you love cats unconditionally you think their results are good news. The study doesn't suggest that. Also it's for Izmar not Istanbul, oh and the low # of 15% means there are 150,000 infected cats spreading toxo in Istanbul to all other warm-blooded animals.🫩🙄

@jonincentex_ @XHNews If you took off your hate goggles, you could have done a simple Google search yourself: toxoplasmosis in Istanbul is present (21–43%), and only 14% of cats contribute to infection.

#Istanbul, the city of #cats. In Istanbul, no one shoos a cat away. The city has quietly woven its furry residents into everyday life.

@k__bayraktar @XHNews It's a parasite where cats are the definitive host and which cats spread widely. Many cases of human mental illness are due the parasites ability to alter brain function in infected people which in the past would make them easier prey for large felines. vet.cornell.edu/departments-ce…

@jonincentex_ @XHNews Never heard of that.

@nypost The cop is too old for street duty

Wild footage has gone viral of a cop in Cincinnati, Ohio getting into a “cat and mouse” struggle with a man on the street.

"The result is I'm a 23-year old gay man who's never had an orgasm and may never experience one. Let that sink in." Jonni Skinner tells the California legislature's judiciary committee how he was puberty blocked, dosed with estrogen and rendered anorgasmic as a minor by gender clinicians that never inquired into the source of his gender confusion as a child and instead put him on a pipeline to a lifetime of medicalization. Full text of his comments below: "When I was young, I was a feminine child, and I discovered trans influencers online. They said: 'Change your body and your life gets better. Don't and it gets worse.' Or, as my doctors told my mom, I would commit suicide. The medical and mental health providers didn't bother to ask why I felt the way I did. They poisoned my body with blockers and hormones, arresting my puberty and messing with my development. The result is I'm a 23 year old gay man who's never had an orgasm and may never experience one. Let that sink in. I was rendered anorgasmic because once you say you could be trans, that's a full stop -- no exploration as to why is allowed, even if you are struggling. The former president of WPATH, Dr Marcy Bowers, the California surgeon who had performed the surgery for Jazz Jennings at 17, admitted on video that puberty blockers, followed by cross sex hormones, results in no orgasms and stunted genitals. SB, 934 guarantees that more people will end up like me, the walking but wounded. I could have been spared all of this, if any of my therapists would have explored why I felt dysphoric. But they never did. They only led me to hate my body more. The Supreme Court just ruled in a rare bipartisan decision that laws like this are unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination. This bill is an attempted workaround that will be used to silence therapists who could have helped me avoid the irreversible harms to my body and the loss of my sexual function as is the same for many others. So today, I ask you to extend some empathy to survivors like me and vote no for this bill."

@elonmusk But only one is valid and deserves to be preserved preferably by melting down that spacecraft and reburying the metals in the ground so the saintly tribal folk can get back to being one with nature and being nature's custodians of the wilderness😅😂🤣

Vast technology differences simultaneously

A new visa attack on America workers has come to light. The proposed H–2C work visa would import a large number of foreign construction workers, servers, and hotel maids. Wait until you see the cosponsors!!!

@HiddenBelowFilm @TVOdocs I wish I could see that every TV show I've seen about the Great lakes has shown a lake virtually bereft of Life for some reason. I know it's not true but they just never made an effort to show what lived in the Great lakes unfortunately. TV Ontario isn't shown in the USA

This isn’t the ocean. It’s the Great Lakes. "Hidden Below" is now in production — a new @TVOdocs documentary that uses robots to reveal the underwater world, from familiar species to ones you won’t believe live here.

#GlassSponge skeletons are made up of tiny, sharp silica spicules that form geometric patterns, creating sculptural shapes. This structure makes it an excellent habitat for associates such as squat lobsters.

RFK Jr. says the Cuban government was tied to a massive healthcare fraud operation in South Florida. “There’s an entire racket that is run by the Cuban government of durable medical equipment.” “We found one hotel that had 129 rooms and every one of them was a durable medical equipment company.” “There are 2 times the number of durable medical equipment companies in South Florida as there are McDonald’s.” “Most of them don’t sell anything. They’re just there to steal from the federal government.”

@zundamotisuki Yes we could all learn from Poland. Diversity is NOT a strength unless assimilation is part of it.

ポーランドは98％が白人で、ヨーロッパで最も低い失業率で、犯罪率も非常に低い。 人口の72％がカトリック教徒であるこの国は、大陸で最も安全な国の一つに数えられます。 欧米諸国や日本はポーランドを見習うべきでは？

WOW 🚨 Former driver license examiner for Maine DMV says he quit after over 10 years because of the corruption. They are allowing non-citizens to get Drivers Licenses They are giving illegals driving permits WITH A 100% PASS RATE The Maine Wire “A longtime BMV employee came forward to expose a scam that allowed non-citizens to get driver's permits with a near 100% pass rate, by using foreign language translators to supply correct answers during the permit test” Once they have their drivers permits they can then get a license. Maine allows non-citizens to get driver’s licenses.

An order of Catholic nuns who care for the terminally ill poor has sued to block a New York transgender-rights law that requires nursing homes to use pronouns, assign rooms and allow restroom access based on a patient's gender identity, or risk jail time. trib.al/kXikWLn
