25 April - My Feedly! 2 of 2

The High-fat Hep C Diet

An intriguing new study looked at 2 different types of enteral feeding in 60 critically ill patients for 7 days. The fat-based formula was 37%E glucose, so this was not a test of a low carb diet, and predictably the differences in glucose and insulin AUC, though trending in the right direction, were not significant.[1] The significant finding was higher resting energy expenditure (REE) in the hig

I'm still working on the next chapter of my "Justin Trudeau vs. Free Speech" series. (The world awaits the next installment with bated breath, I know!) But today I feel like typing about three movies about childhood that really moved me. The first film I'll talk about isn't so much about childhood as it is about single-parenting. In "The Babadook" an isolated single-mother begins to receive sinis
(The annual post-Oscar film roundup is a pre-blog tradition, delayed this round. It comes in four parts – the other three coming later.) 2017 was a decent year for films, with a solid crop of noteworthy movies. Many of the best were genre pictures, including the usual superhero flicks, but also a science fiction film, a western and a monster movie. Jimmy Kimmel did a good job overall
The satan-worshipping elite who hijacked power in the West, fighting for their very lives, have staged a massive counteroffensive in Syria and against U.S. President Donald Trump. This offensive has now run out of steam and is backfiring on them big time as their lies about Syria and many other things are being exposed. And, although no word has been given about when the 25,500 sealed indictments
Shalom Benjamin, I have been receiving your newsletters from friends and associates for a few years now. I must admit I was amazed that you had the chance to interview David Rockefeller, a man who rarely if ever speaks with any person outside the world he lives in. Obviously you have something going on and many, as you know, were very suspicious when you got that talk, and felt that you are simpl
The current leadership of the Anglo-Saxon world is acting in a manner that can only be described as insane, by issuing one obviously false, incendiary claim after another in a vain attempt to start World War 3. They are doing this because the current leadership is literally fighting to survive as the wheels of justice inevitably grind closer. This is why recently we have seen that UK Prime Minist
The Japanese Khazarian mafia slave government, desperate to survive, is plotting the removal of U.S. troops from Japan as well as the end of the regime of U.S. President Donald Trump, according to Japanese right-wing sources close to the emperor. That is why former U.S. President Barack Obama and former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra were here last week, the sources say. The Japanese regi
The insane religious-fanatic Zionists who have been trying for years to start Armageddon have failed yet again in their latest attempt, this time in Syria. They now face serious repercussions, possibly starting with a revolution in France. Before we get into the details, let’s remember what it is we’re dealing with here. It is difficult for sane, reality-based people to understand that the Wester
The start today (March 26, 2018) of oil futures trading in gold-backed Chinese yuan is being widely seen as a Chinese victory in the ongoing financial war for control of the planet Earth. It is also a good time to remind China that the world will NEVER swap Khazarian mafia control for Chinese mafia control. The West will be eternally grateful for the help provided by Asian secret societies in its

Welcome Back to Pottersville

The self-pitying sanctimoniousness of Paul Ryan's official resignation announcement was literally sickening. He didn't seek the job as House Speaker. He wasn't really resigning because of November's Blue Tsunami getting bigger and bigger on the horizon. And, of course, he wanted to spend more time with the Koch Brothers his family. And so ends one of the shortest House Speaker tenures in modern A
It's all about Donald Trump (at least in his funhouse mirror worldview), yet it isn't . Those of us in the reality-based community find it all too easy to blame Donald Trump for everything that's wrong with our once-great nation. He's the world's biggest lightning rod and, yes, we can trace the corruption, the forced deportations of Dreamers and Wall Street's instability directly to him. Throw a

What Is Sustainable

In the early 1900s, automobiles, trucks, buses, and tractors were becoming very trendy. The human population was two billion and growing, while the horse population peaked and declined. Model T Fords did not require five acres of good grassland to fuel them, an area that could feed six to eight people. While grassland was, in theory, a renewable resource, there was not an infinite supply of it. P
Jeffrey Goldberg, Leon Wieseltier, and James Bennet The unlikely rise of Trump in the past three years has created a chasm in the Republican party: those who embrace the President’s wild, unorthodox, nativist style and those who––with much posturing and self congratulation––reject his brand of conservatism. The latter group, generally called “NeverTrump” Republicans occupies a special,
Students at Middlebury College disrupt speaker Charles Murray. The horror stories are ubiquitous: a theater group at Wesleyan won’t perform The Vagina Monologues because it’s offensive to trans women! Oberlin is banning classes featuring white authors!

Celebrate #EmpathyDay with a good book. Last year, a prosecutor in the US state of Virginia asked a judge to hand down an unusual sentence. Five teens had defaced a historic structure -- a Jim Crow- era schoolhouse for African-American children -- with swastikas and other racist graffiti. The judge agreed with the prosecutor -- and she sentenced the teens to reading . The teens were to choose boo
With apologies to my man C. Dickens, it was the worst of customers, it was the best of customers. Our Children's Department is short-staffed right now, and although that is stressful in many ways, there is a silver lining for me: I am needed more on the information desk, and that's my favourite place to be in the library. One day this week, I experienced a real study in contrasts. From the desk, I
We used to eat President's Choice Blue Menu granola. The vanilla-almond flavour was crunchy, delicious, and reasonably healthy. My favourite way to eat it was with plain Greek yogurt and fruit, but it was very good with milk or rice milk as well. Then... it changed. It was no longer crunchy. It was no longer tasty. With a little liquid added, it tasted like soggy cardboard, or what I imagine soggy
These days, most hotel rooms contain some sort of green messaging, as companies are expected to show how eco-friendly they are. Usually guests have the option of not having their towels changed daily, which is supposed to yield big energy savings. Last week at the Sheraton Parkway in Toronto, I learned that Sheraton's green policy is not exactly as advertised. I don't know if this qualifies as gre
I am very frustrated by progressive reaction to the appointment of Doug Ford as leader of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party. People are acting as if Ford has already won an election that is three months away. I understand there is great -- and well deserved -- anger against Kathleen Wynne's Liberal party. But are we progressives going to stand helplessly staring at polls as we are thrown
Phnom Penh, Cambodia, April 23, 2018 – After decades of seemingly irreversible decline, results from a WWF and Government of Cambodia census released today show that the population of critically endangered river dolphins in the Mekong has risen from 80 to 92 in the past two years – the first increase since records began more than twenty years ago.

Nairobi, 5 April 2018 - WWF welcomes Taiwan's announcement on its plan to ban domestic ivory trade effective starting 1 January 2020. The decision comes after the game-changing policy from Mainland China, the US and Hong Kong SAR, three of the world's largest ivory trade markets, to proactively shut down their domestic ivory markets. These new policies demonstrate the political momentum building
DAR ES SALAAM – In Tanzania, the government, with support from WWF, has launched the country's largest ever elephant collaring effort to protect its dwindling elephant population.

As I said in the previous post, it's us who claim that the BBC is biased against Brexit who have the evidence . And here's some more... ****** Using TV Eyes, I've tracked every mention of Brexit on BBC One over the past week (Monday-Friday). As TV Eyes uses the London version of BBC One, the following includes BBC London news programmes too. 65 results came up. And here's what BBC One has been up
The BBC has been prominently covering the anti-Brexit 'People's vote' campaign today. This morning's Andrew Marr Show featured an interview with Locutus of Borg, leader of one anti-Brexit campaign. And 'Campaigners demand 'people's' Brexit vote' has been the second story on the BBC News website for most of the day. And this afternoon the BBC News Channel, reporting from the London anti-Brexit ral
“So this isn’t scientific,” said Laura Kuenssberg” It’s just a slice of conversations going on around the country about Brexit” (not verbatim) “I don’t want you to think too hard, but I want you to put down the first three words that come into your mind when you think about Brexit” said the lady in the green dress in a patronising tone as she handed out pieces of paper. Like a party game. “Lies?”
The BBC hasn't exactly done its reputation for reporting much good over its coverage of the Hungarian election. Firstly, there was the misinterpretation of the meaning of a high turnout: BBC One's early evening news bulletin was still reporting that "the high turnout could benefit opposition parties" as the polls closed last night. I follow a Twitter feed called Europe Elects, which provided upda

Of course, as pro-Israel critics of the BBC will often say, “You won’t seen anything like this on the BBC” and for once, that is particularly apt. Well, maybe not just for once .

It was January 1994 when my A-Level Sociology class got to grips with the media.

You don't need me to tell you what a disgrace Theresa May is. She can't be accused of mishandling the Windrush scandal, because the pain and misery caused to surviving family members is by design, not by accident.

Not more centre party rumours . Perhaps it's just churnalism . After all, it's not like British politics is gripped by a major scandal or anything.

The only chance of salvaging the situation is,
Very sad news. 28 is no age.
War and politics go hand in hand, which is something Theresa May certainly understands even if sundry Labour backbenchers do not. Reminding us of this was a rumour reported on by BBC Washington correspondent, Jon Sopel. He suggests that while the US led the bombing of selected targets in and around Damascus, it was actually the French and the British who were egging on an immediate response. The

The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has been featured often in these pages, usually in terms of brown dwarfs and the possibility of uncovering a small star or brown dwarf closer than Proxima Centauri. But while we still have no evidence of such, we do have abundant data on brown dwarfs, as well as a useful compendium of objects that come close to the Earth. For WISE, launched in 2009 a
My doctor is a long-time friend who always stops during my annual physical to ask about what’s going on in the hunt for exoplanets.

But at GSC 07396-00759, the disk is more evolved than the gas-rich disk arou

A significant proportion of Labour MPs are actively seeking to cause their own party to do badly in forthcoming local elections, with the aim of damaging the leader of that party. To that end they have attacked Jeremy Corbyn relentlessly in a six week crescendo, in parliament and in the entirely neo-liberal owned corporate media, over the Skripal case, over Syria, and over crazy allegations of an
The second half of my life has been a continual process of disillusionment with the institutions I used to respect.

Well-placed FCO sources tell me it remains the case that senior civil servants in both the FCO and Home Office remain very sceptical of Russian guilt in the Skripal case. It remains the case that Porton Down scientists have identified the chemical as a “novichok-style” nerve agent but still cannot tie its production to Russia – there are many other possibilities. The effort to identify the actual
