single point mutation gives Skin colour?
blogspot
a gene, SLC24A5, in humans, where 69% of the amino acids were identical to the fish gene .. They took the human gene, and put it in to the golden zebrafish. Guess what? The golden zebrafish regained their normal color .. Did this explain different colors in humans? The researchers then looked through different human populations .. for “polymorphisms”,..And the found one. Almost all Africans, native Americans and Asians (93-100%) have an Alanine in a certain position in this gene. Almost all white Europeans had ..Threonine there,

..Six of the world's top polluters meet in Sydney this week to promote "clean energy technology"
The United States, Japan, China, India, Australia and South Korea.. Asia-Pacific Partnership for Clean Development and Climate ..will not be backing fixed targets.. some analysts expect any resolution to be vague.
..plans to create a fund to help develop cleaner energy technologies, which Australia would kickstart with about A$100 million
.."As might be expected from a pact between six of the world's biggest coal exporters and users, this appears to be a deal to do nothing," Greenpeace spokeswoman Catherine Fitzpatrick said.

Worse yet, this appears to be a Greenwash, with Coal scrambling to preserve its massive subsidies.
Terms like "clean" and "clean coal" are disgraceful disguises for keeping on burning coal.
Foolish plans to bury CO2 are uncosted, untested, and dangerous.
(but see the greenshift item below... will sequestration actually be economic?]

CO2 burial (current euphemism: 'sequestration') will at least double the price of coal-electricity, and risk massive deaths in the event of catastrophic accidental release.
Why shunt huge subsidies to coal, which is speeding us towards the Great Extinction, when thousands of plants and animals will go extinct as temperatures and oceans rise faster than possible adaptions.
Look at New Orleans, the poor districts have been abandoned. Project that over the entire earth.
Thats where coal subsidies are driving us.

Bayless designed a bioreactor based on a newly discovered iron-loving cyanobacterium (blue-green algae), tentatively named Chroogloeocystis siderophila, that Cooksey discovered thriving in a hot stream at Yellowstone. [nb cyanobacteria are NOT algae]
In Bayless's bioreactor, algae grow on membranes of woven fibers resembling window screens interspersed between the Oak Ridge glow plates. Capillary action wicks water to the algae, fiber optic cables channel sunlight into the glow plates, and ducts bring in the hot flue gas. By spreading the cyanobacteria on membranes, "you get a lot of surface area for growth, but you don't need a lot of water and the bacteria use only about 10 percent of full-strength sunlight," Bayless explains. "This enables us to take one square meter of sunlight and spread it out over 10 square meters of growth surface."
The algae use the available carbon dioxide and water to grow new algae, giving off pure oxygen and water vapor in the process. The organisms also absorb nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide, which contribute to acid rain. Once the algae grow to maturity, they fall to the bottom of the bioreactor and are harvested for other uses. "We're storing carbon dioxide in organisms that exist in your backyard," Bayless says. "Once the algae is grown, if it can't be used as fuel or a hydrogen source, it can be used as a fertilizer or soil stabilizer."
A prototype of the technology was built that is capable of handling 140 cubic meters of flue gas per minute, an amount equal to the exhaust from 50 cars or a 3 megawatt power plant.

Tomato sauce prevents smoking rats lung cancer:
Risk of death with prostate cancer was lower for rats fed tomato powder than rats fed the control diet, but prostate cancer–specific mortality was similar for the control and lycopene groups. Calorie restriction also reduced the risk of prostate cancer. The authors suggest that a variety of interacting compounds in tomato besides lycopene may contribute to the reduction in prostate cancer risk associated with tomato consumption.
.................
fruit and vegetable intake .. protective effect of fruit and vegetable consumption was found in 128 of 156 dietary studies ..the lower one-fourth of the population) experience about twice the risk
..Fruits, in particular, were significantly protective in cancers of the esophagus, oral cavity, and larynx
Strong evidence of a protective effect of fruit and vegetable .. in cancers of the pancreas and stomach (26 of 30 studies), as well as in colorectal and bladder cancers (23 of 38 studies)..

eat'em together...
The rats that were given both the tomato and broccoli combined had the smallest tumours. The ones to fare the worst were the ones that just got the finasteride.
.................
ars A study of ferrets–which metabolize beta carotene very much like humans–shows that excess beta carotene stored in the lungs becomes oxidized into products that turn the normal control of cell division upside down. These oxidized metabolites decreased a tumor suppressor and increased a tumor promoter in the animals' lungs. The finding explains why very high doses of beta carotene appeared to increase lung cancer rates among smokers

By contrast, there are no reports of harmful effects from low-dose beta carotene supplements. And populations that eat more fruits and vegetables rich in beta carotene and other carotenoids reportedly have a lower incidence of cancer, particularly lung cancer.
