America’s Political System Thrives on Corruption
*-by Bruce Berlin* Big Money has a stranglehold on our country’s political system that is destroying our democracy. Today in Washington and in our state capitals too often Big Money calls the shots. Moreover, this problem is not a partisan issue. Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle as well as presidential administrations of both parties are frequently guilty of unduly favoring the desires of their Big Money donors over the needs of their constituents. The truth is, we have a system that thrives on corruption, and it’s getting worse all the time. While Donald Trump appe... more »

"Such A Paradox..."
“How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one’s culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions.

NYC subway banned dogs unless they fit in a bag, so these owners got creative.
When New York City decided to implement policies to ban large dogs from the subway system, pet parents decided to take things into their own hands. The rule stated that dogs must fit into a bag to be deemed travel worthy in the underground. Challenge accepted. On the surface it seemed that any dog over 10 pounds would not make the cut, but these every resourceful city dwellers beat the system in the best way. “No person may bring any animal on or into any conveyance or facility unless enclosed in a container.” But the rules say nothing about the size of the animal, some people ar... more »

Fort Peck Native American Tribes gift genetically pure American bison to Bronx Park
The seven female and one male bison are from the Yellowstone National Park bloodline, which are among the few pure herds remaining.

The gas then cools, condenses, fragments and eventually collapses to form stars.

People with cystic fibrosis suffer repeated lung infections because their airway mucus is too thick and sticky to keep bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens from causing chronic infection. How mucus becomes abnormal in cystic fibrosis airways has never been fully understood, but a new study has determined that mucin proteins, which give mucus its gel-like properties, fail to unfold normally in cystic fibrosis airways, making airway mucus much more thick and sticky than it would be otherwise. Cystic fibrosis is a rare genetic disease that affects about 70,000 people worldwide. It oc... more »

What mathematical thinking looks like and why schools should teach it
Go to the Character of the Mathematical Thought list... A week ago, Doug K. sent me an essay Why We Should Reduce Skills Teaching in the Math Class by Dr Keith Devlin, a British American set theorist and mathematics teacher. Like many postmodern promoters of feel-good education, Devlin argues that we should reduce the teaching of all hard mathematics at school. After all, almost no one actually needs mathematics in his life so it's fine. This change will reduce the math anxieties and math phobia in the society, make the world a better place, and so on. At the same time, most peopl... more »
Using the placenta to understand how complex organs evolve
Oliver Griffith, Postdoctoral Associate in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University at Science + Technology – The Conversation - 14 hours ago
Developing lizard embryo beneath placental tissues. Oliver Griffith, CC BY-ND Considering how different they look from the outside, it might be surprising that all vertebrates – animals with a backbone – share the same, conserved set of organs. Chickens, fish, human beings – all have hearts, livers, brains, kidneys and so on. Each of these organs performs a specialized set of functions. On the inside, most vertebrates have a similar set of organs, inherited from a common ancestor. Thomas Wallace.

China Warned US Bomber During 'Routine' East China Sea Flyover
*Reuters*: *China says U.S. should respect China's air defense zone* China said on Thursday the United States should respect its air defense identification zone (ADIZ), after CNN reported China had warned a U.S. bomber it was illegally flying inside China's self-declared zone in the East China Sea. China declared the zone, in which aircraft are supposed to identify themselves to Chinese authorities, in the East China Sea in 2013, which the United States and Japan have refused to recognize.

A Small, Cautious Budget
Kevin Page writes that yesterday's budget was not a history making event: From a fiscal vantage point, Budget 2017 was a very small event. There’s about $6 billion in new federal resources cumulatively planned for the next six years. By comparison, Budget 2016 allocated about $11.5 billion in new resources in year one, rising to $14.5 billion in year two. The Liberals are still going to run deficits, but they're investing in nothing new and nothing big.

Infinity and beyond
The one important insight that i want to share is that all this is about mathematical infinity and is very much a rigorous thought experiment. The problem though is that it has become somewhat embedded in our mathematics and in the calculus in particular and this then blindly travels over into empirical applications. For example, mathematical continuity as a rigorous concept depends on mathematical infinity. All this leads to rigorous mathematics that has a real potential to fail in the empirical world and does. As it turns out the idea of empirical infinity is* extremely import... more »
