People don’t trust scientific research when companies are involved
Nagwan Zahry, PhD Student in Media and Information Studies, Michigan State University at Science + Technology – The Conversation - 1 hour ago
People seem to think industry-funded research belongs in the garbage. mllejules/Shutterstock.com A soda company sponsoring nutrition research. An oil conglomerate helping fund a climate-related research meeting. Does the public care who’s paying for science? In a word, yes. When industry funds science, credibility suffers. And this does not bode well for the types of public-private research partnerships that appear to be becoming more prevalent as government funding for research and development lags. The recurring topic of conflict of interest has made headlines in recent weeks. ... more »

"A Reasonably Competent Democratic Party"-- Ah There's The Rub

Macron beats Le Pen, but can he lead France?
Joshua Cole, Professor of History, University of Michigan at Politics + Society – The Conversation - 7 hours ago
AP In the second round of the French presidential election, extremism lost. It is less clear what won. Estimates after the polls closed on May 7 had Emmanuel Macron winning with 63.7 percent of the vote. National Front candidate Marine Le Pen took approximately 36.3 percent. That’s less than the 40 percent some polls gave her as recently as two weeks prior to the vote, but more than twice as much as the 17.8 percent her father, Jean Marie Le Pen, received in his 2002 face-off against former president Jacques Chirac. Turnout was lower than any presidential election since 1969, wi... more »

Former Trump adviser Carter Page is no longer cooperating with the Senate Intelligence Committee. Surprise, surprise, surprise.
Courtesy of The Independent: *Former Trump adviser Carter Page has declined to provide records of his communications with Russians to the Senate intelligence committee, saying that anything of note has already been recorded by former President Barack Obama’s administration. * *“I suspect the physical reaction of the Clinton/Obama regime perpetrators will be more along the lines of severe vomiting when all the facts are eventually exposed regarding the steps taken by the US Government to influence the 2016 election,” Mr Page wrote in response to an April letter he received from t... more »
Grandma Thomas Walked 80 Miles Each Year to Raise Funds for Youth Complex
"We need to take the kids off of the streets," she said, "and they need to be in a place where they congregate and have fun. She had walked for years raising money for the youth of Chinle. Her 80-mile trek between Chinle and Window Rock was a common sight in September during the Navajo Nation Fair. Children and their parents walked with her carrying buckets and signs asking for d onations to her cause, which was to build a youth complex in Chinle. Her goal at the time was to raise $25 million. In the end, she raised more than $100,000, which now sits unused in a bank account. T... more »
Heroes And Villains
Recently I was getting to know two new congressional candidates running for seats held by Republicans in California. I asked one why he had donated so much money to John Kasich's presidential campaign in 2016. He told me he "used to be" a Republican. And now he wants to be in Congress... as a Democrat? "Ex"-Republicans that were elected last year-- Charlie Crist (FL) and Tom O'Halleran (AZ), for example-- vote overwhelmingly with the GOP against progressive legislation, as "ex"-Republicans almost always do. Both have joined the Blue Dogs *and* the New Dems, the core of the Republic... more »

Sociology: "Shame On The Rich"
*"Shame On The Rich"* by Elizabeth Norton “For fans of the British upstairs-downstairs TV series “Downton Abbey,” skullduggery may seem evenly distributed among the social ranks. But in real life, it's the upper classes that are more likely to behave dishonorably, according to new research. Observers of human nature have long puzzled over the possibility of an ethical class divide. On the one hand, people with fewer resources and dimmer prospects might be expected to do whatever's necessary to get ahead. On the other, wealthy types may be more focused on themselves, because money, ... more »
"Not Much Mental Distance..."
“A man who has blown all his options can't afford the luxury of changing his ways. He has to capitalize on whatever he has left, and he can't afford to admit - no matter how often he's reminded of it - that every day of his life takes him farther and farther down a blind alley. Very few toads in this world are Prince Charmings in disguise. Most are simply toads, and they are going to stay that way. Toads don't make laws or change any basic structures, but one or two rooty insights can work powerful changes in the way they get through life. A toad who believes he got a raw deal befor... more »

Momma Bear Patiently Teaches Her Babies How To Climb A Tree
This is the adorable moment a cheeky bear cub poked its head around a tree - as if to say 'look at me!' - as it practised climbing with its sibling and mum. Eager to show off their new skills, the cute cubs tentatively made their way up the tree in a secluded forest in northern Finland. Their mum kept a close watch and gave them an encouraging nudge after they stopped just a few feet off the forest's floor. Bjorksten, 33, said: 'There were two or three cubs - they were with their mum, practising climbing. The cubs looked really happy that they had finally mastered it.' He said... more »

Hanging out in Jerome
Jerome was known for its hospitality during the gold rush. Jerome, Arizona was an old mining boom town. Today it's a tourist trap (a very small version of Virginia City, NV). As with Virginia City, they are still pulling gold out of local mines. The city is built on the side of a mountain and when you visit, plan on climbing up and down in order to see everything that the place has to offer. "Tourist trap" notwithstanding, there is a lot of history still present when you walk the narrow streets (with the working mines in background), looking through the clear air all the way to Sedo... more »

Macron beats Le Pen
Right now, I believe that my statement that the "Macron defeat wasn't very unlikely" was incorrect, after all. It's still being predicted, based on partial results, that he will score a 65-to-35 victory over Le Pen. If something changes dramatically, I will revise or delete this blog post. But the data available now do indicate that some 3-sigma fluke was needed so the probability of a Macron victory was close to 99.7% and the bookmakers have overstated the chances of a surprising result. I hope that Tom Vonk has kept his bet and won some modest interest. On the other hand, my condo... more »
