Short thread 👇🏼

“Vaccine-mediated protection against merbecovirus and sarbecovirus challenge in mice” biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We were interested in developing vaccination strategies against highly pathogenic human #coronaviruses with epidemic potential. Our previous studies, and those of others, defined the #RBD as a major target of neutralizing antibodies.
We therefore looked to #ferritin nanoparticles as a scaffold to display genetically divergent RBDs from both Group 2c merbecoviruses (#MERSCoV) and Group 2b sarbecoviruses (#SARSCoV , #SARSlike viruses, and #SARSCoV2). Our vaccines elicited broad binding antibodies in mice.

#Dow plastered #Singapore with ads for a sneaker #recycling program, promising to turn shoes into playground tracks. But the shoes it collected in "recycling" bins got dumped illegally in #Indonesia. This isn't strange: it's how nearly *all* plastic recycling *always* worked. 1/ A woman kneeling to tie her running shoe. She stands on a ba

"One of the ideas we had with #InterPlanetary was, 'What would it take to make science hedonistic? And instead of telling people to do it, you'd have to tell people to STOP doing it?"

- SFI President David Krakauer sets the tone for this weekend's celebrations
#IPFest Image
David Krakauer: "Do you have a favorite model or metaphor for #time?"

@JamesGleick: "You've already mentioned a river; that's everybody's favorite. Borges said time is a tiger. People talk about it as a thread. We ONLY talk about time in metaphors." Image

Alright, you wanted me to do it, so here goes.
A real quick and dirty tutorial on how to use #Universal #Radio #Hacker or #URH to do something useful.
You can find the tool here: github.com/jopohl/urh
It's a bit flaky at times, but it appears to support capture and replay on most hardware out in the field today, which is GREAT
The tool comes in useful when you're confronted with a radio link and want to find out the details (modulation, bitrate, etc) when those aren't made public by the manufacturer. It's also handy when you just have a signal and no device in hand.

Everyone’s trying to sell you something, or take something off you, or get you to do something.
Everyone’s out for themselves.
No one can be trusted.
People are greedy.
People are lazy.
It’s a dog-eat-dog world.

That’s how I sometimes feel.

But it’s far from the truth, isn’t it?

These are just the lies we’re being told – or it’s people behaving that way because of the lies they’ve been told.

#greed
Our media is our enemy – and much of our schooling too.
We’re victims of cognitive imperialism – and the invading empire has established its outposts in the hinterlands of our minds.

Today marks ten years since the #Syria uprising started. Difficult to overstate the price paid by Syrians fighting for freedom, dignity & rights, and the importance of continuing to push for justice and reform. A thread on what we've seen this past decade. #Syria10 (1/12)
The #Syria gov’s brutal response to a peaceful uprising kicked off a decade of human rights abuses, inc. the detention & torture of 10000s, many of whom remain missing. Syrians like Ali Mustafa & Bassel Khartabil, who represent the best of Syria. (2/12) hrw.org/report/2012/07…
Conflict underscores cost of eroding respect for intl law. From the #Syria gov’s systematic use of chemical weapons + cluster munitions to starving communities to force surrender. 100s of 1000s lives lost, millions displaced & cities destroyed. Costs Syrians still bear (3/12)

Revenge of the Mummy is currently only for Express riders, with the regular queue being utilized.
It opened today after a brief refurb. The wait is around 15 minutes.

The ride has upgraded a couple scenes, details in comments. #universal #orlando ImageImage
The treasure room has a new projector and the sound in the room seems to be improved, but tough to tell after one ride-through.
The bug room has brighter projectors that could be turned down a bit, but I’m happy to say the 3D bugs are still there in unison with the projections.
The biggest change is the new animation in the turntable section, totally redone (and a little less nolstalgic than before, & almost TOO animated now) but it’s a huge welcome. Plus the timing of the animation is now exact in line with your vehicle turn, which is great news.

People think they know what iam up to, but that is actually not possible, because I do knot pre plan anything, and just work with the flow.
that doesn't mean iam not affecting things, but I never challenge who is, + if u have been paying attention, u know:
If I wait any longer2give u this gift, I risk missing this deadline, and won't ever be able to use this way again.

1-Today is the #Birth #Anniversary of quite possibly the most interesting #God in the #Sanatana #Pantheon - #Ganehsa!

For #AyurvedicAstrology and #VedicAstrology #Tradition in general – Ganesha is the central #God controlling all the #Planets.
2-The Puja timings at most places today in #India are between 11 and 1 during the day.

No tradition is as rich in #Mythical #Symbolism (that if properly meditated upon – can point to the reality) – as the Vedic Tradition.
3-According to the #Vedic Traditions of #Yoga, #Vastu, #Ayurveda and #Jyotish

..the following are the #Metaphors and #Allegories associated with #Ganesha

1-Hi!

Good Morning!

Continuing our #Dialogue on #Gems and #GemTherapy, today we shall dwell on the next two #GemStones.

#YellowSapphire and #Diamond. (1/13)

#Upayas
2-Yellow Sapphire is D highest quality Gemstone used 4 #Jupiter.

Substitute Gemstones for Yellow Sapphire are Yellow Tourmaline, #Citrine, Yellow #Zircon and #Topaz.

In my view, I have seen that Yellow Sapphire is one of the most widely prescribed Gemstone. (2/13)

#Remedies
3-Being related to #Jupiter it is bound to activate within you – the #Energy of the #Universal #Guru.

Out of the four #Vedic #Purusharthas, of #Dharma, #Artha, #Kama and #Moksha, Yellow Sapphire well and truly stands for #Dharma.

These are the #stories of #math that we celebrate, amplify and make central to the idea of #maths as a #objective #neutral #culture-free subject. #Math can do no #harm, and the #logical “pure math” thinking of #Mathematicians is worthy of emulation. But... 1/x
2/x ... "What about pure mathematics and mathematicians who merely prove theorems? Is there any #ethical component comparable to what you find in other fields of #science?" - R. Hersh in Experiencing #Mathematics
3/x One point of view: "there's no need for #mathematicians to have a code of #ethics, because what we do matters so little that we can do whatever we like."

With only a few days to go before the most comprehensive #lockdown announced by GoI comes to an end, participated in a VC with Hon PM to discuss the exit strategy to deal with fallout from #COVIDー19 Crisis & ways to kick start the #economy. Made the following suggestions.(1/n)
1. TESTING: Use Rapid test kits to segregate the people into red, yellow & green zones. Empowering employers to test their workforce, will reduce the burden on Govt and create green zones of productivity and help get economy back on track. (2/n)
2. #supplychain: They are extremely important to get the economy moving even in a partial manner. Allowing trucks to #transport goods and other #materials is vital for the #economy. The Govt might also consider ensuring Road side facilities for the drivers' #welfare. (3/n)

Extraordinary analysis from @Alston_UNSR - “staggering” child poverty levels, more than a million and a half people in destitution and a government “in denial”. “Britain is capable of eliminating its poverty ..it doesn’t want to.”
@Alston_UNSR “The system as epitomised by #Universal Credit is driven by the desire to get across the message ‘The State does not have your back any longer. You are on your own.”
And on the story of the moment #brexit the poor he claims “will bear the brunt, the economic fall out of Brexit”.
