UK government officials attempted to suppress criticism of the United Arab Emirates and its alleged role in supplying arms to a notorious militia waging a campaign of ethnic cleansing in Sudan, sources have told the Guardian.

Claims that Foreign Office officials put pressure on African diplomats to avoid criticising the UAE over its alleged military support for Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF) will intensify scrutiny of the UK’s relationship with the Gulf state.[...]

The UAE has repeatedly denied involvement in sending military support to any of Sudan’s warring parties.[...]

Last week the Humanitarian Research Lab (HRL) at Yale University revealed images of a cargo plane flying over RSF territory near El Fasher, matching an aircraft type seen at locations in neighbouring Chad where lethal aid has allegedly been transferred to the RSF.[...]

Kholood Khair, Sudanese political analyst, said geopolitical dynamics explained any attempt to protect the UAE. “The UAE has made itself indispensable to the west, in particular the US, as a guarantor of its strategic objectives in the region,” she said.

Khair added: “The UAE has been helping the US stave off Chinese dominance in Africa by outspending Beijing and in return gets US security guarantees.”[...]

In 2013, as prime minister, Lord [David] Cameron set up a secretive Whitehall unit specifically to court the oil-rich sheikhs of the UAE, with the aim of persuading them to invest billions in the UK.

In January the defence secretary, Grant Shapps, said he expected the UK to raise tens of billions of pounds of investment from the UAE.

"A net-zero power system is closer than we think.

New research, published by RMI, indicates that an exponential surge in renewable energy deployment is outpacing the International Energy Agency’s most ambitious net-zero predictions for 2030. 

That’s right: Surging solar, wind, and battery capacity is now in-line with net-zero scenarios. 

“For the first time, we can, with hand on heart, say that we are potentially on the path to net zero,” Kingsmill Bond, Senior Principal at RMI, said. “We need to make sure that we continue to drive change, but there is a path and we are on it.”

And that’s really good news.

Exponential growth in renewable energy has put the global electricity system at a tipping point. What was once seen as a wildly daunting task — transitioning away from fossil fuels — is now happening at a faster pace every year. 

Based on this new research, conducted in partnership with the Bezos Earth Fund, RMI projects that solar and wind will supply over a third of all global electricity by 2030, up from about 12% today, which would surpass recent calls for a tripling of total renewable energy capacity by the end of the decade. 

Global progress in the renewable energy sector

China and Europe have been leading the way in clean energy generation, but the deployment of renewable energy has also been widely distributed across the Middle East and Africa. 

Research from Systems Change Lab shows that eight countries (Uruguay, Denmark, Lithuania, Namibia, Netherlands, Palestine, Jordan, and Chile) have already grown solar and wind power faster than what is needed to limit global warming to 1.5°C, proving that a swift switch to renewable energy is not only feasible — it’s entirely achievable. 

In order to make that switch, globally, wind and solar need to grow from 12% to 41% by 2030. Denmark, Uruguay, and Lithuania have already achieved that increase in the span of eight years.

Meanwhile, Namibia, the Netherlands, Palestine, Jordan, and Chile have grown solar and wind energy at sufficient rates for five years...

The economic impact of climate progress

Not only is this an exciting and unprecedented development for the health of the environment, but this rapid transition to clean energy includes widespread benefits, like jobs growth, more secure supply chains, and reductions in energy price inflation. 

This progress spans both developing and developed countries, all driven to accelerate renewables for a number of different reasons: adopting smart and effective policies, maintaining political commitments, lowering the costs of renewable energy, and improving energy security. 

And with exponential growth of clean energy means sharp declines in prices. This puts fossil fuels at a higher, uncompetitive cost — both financially and figuratively. 

RMI suggests that solar energy is already the cheapest form of electricity in history — and will likely halve in price by 2030, falling as low as $20/MWh in the coming years. This follows previous trends: solar and battery costs have declined 80% between 2012 and 2022, and offshore wind costs are down 73%."

Let me repeat that:

For the first time in history, we are on an actual, provably achievable path to net zero emissions

It did not seem like a good thing when a precious consignment of human tumour samples on its way from Kampala, Uganda, to Heathrow was diverted to Manchester. When the samples finally arrived at the Middlesex hospital in London, they were swimming in murky fluid in their vials as though they had been infected with bacteria.

But when the pathologist Anthony Epstein looked at the fluid under the microscope he saw no bacteria, just individual cells that had been shaken loose from the tumours. And that was just what he needed in order to search for elusive virus particles and test his hunch that they were causing cancer.

In the early 1960s Epstein, who has died aged 102, had heard a lecture by Denis Burkitt, an Irish surgeon working in Kampala, that described strange tumours (now known as Burkitt lymphoma) growing around the jaws of children in equatorial Africa.

Intriguingly, the geographical distribution of the condition seemed to depend on temperature and rainfall, suggesting a biological cause. Epstein, who had been working with viruses that cause cancer in chickens, immediately suspected a virus might be involved, perhaps in association with another tropical disease such as malaria.

Epstein began to collaborate with Burkitt, who supplied him with tumours from children he had treated. But Epstein’s efforts to grow pieces of tumour in the laboratory and isolate a virus had all been unsuccessful until the dissociated cells arrived.

With his graduate student Yvonne Barr, he then decided to look at cultures of these cells in an electron microscope, a powerful instrument that had only recently become available in his lab.

The very first image showed a tell-tale outline that looked like one of the family of herpes viruses. It turned out to be a previously undescribed member of that family, and was given the name Epstein-Barr virus. In 1964, Epstein, Barr and Epstein’s research assistant, Bert Achong, published the first evidence that cancer in humans could be caused by a virus – to be greeted by widespread scepticism even though they went on to demonstrate that EB virus caused tumours in monkeys.

Thanks to samples supplied by Epstein, in 1970 Werner and Gertrude Henle at the Children’s hospital in Philadelphia discovered that EB virus also caused glandular fever. That made it possible to design a test for antibodies to the virus in order to confirm a diagnosis. EB virus turned out to be very common, infecting most children in early life, though it usually causes glandular fever only in older teenagers and young adults. As well as causing Burkitt lymphoma in endemic areas in Africa and Papua New Guinea, it is also associated with a cancer of the nose and throat that is the most common cancer of men in south China, as well as cancers in people whose immune systems have been compromised, such as those infected with HIV.

More recent research suggests that EB virus might also be involved in some cases of multiple sclerosis, and that people who have previously had glandular fever are more susceptible to severe Covid-19.

After the discovery, Epstein and others devoted time and effort to trying to find out under what circumstances EB virus causes cancer. The relationship between the virus, other diseases, human genetics and cancer is complex, and it took decades before the medical community could accept the EB virus as a cause with confidence.

Not until 1997 did the International Agency for Research on Cancer class it as a Group 1 carcinogen, formally acknowledging its role in a variety of cancers.

The discovery of EB virus opened up a whole new field of research into cancer-causing viruses. It also raised the exciting possibility of preventing cancers through vaccination, an advance that has now been achieved in the case of human papilloma virus, which causes cervical cancer, and hepatitis B virus, which causes liver cancer.

By the time of his retirement in 1985, Epstein’s research group at the University of Bristol had developed a candidate vaccine that protected monkeys infected with EB virus against tumours, but neither it nor any other candidate has yet been successfully developed for human use.

Epstein was born in London, one of three children of Olga (nee Oppenheimer) and Mortimer Epstein. Mortimer was a writer and translator who edited The Statesman’s Yearbook for Macmillan from 1924 until his death in 1946. Olga was involved with charitable work in the Jewish community. Anthony attended St Paul’s school in west London, where the biology teacher Sidney Pask encouraged boys to go far beyond the syllabus and whose pupils also included Robert Winston and Jonathan Miller.

Epstein won a place to study medicine at Trinity College, Cambridge. He moved to Middlesex hospital medical school in wartime London to complete his training, before doing his national service in India with the Royal Army Medical Corps. He returned to work at the Middlesex hospital as assistant pathologist, conducting his own research. Thinking electron microscopy might be useful in his studies of cancer-causing viruses in chickens, he spent some time learning the new technique at the Rockefeller Institute in New York (now Rockefeller University). Not long afterwards he attended Burkitt’s lecture and began the serendipitous route to his discovery.

In 1968 he was appointed professor and head of the department of pathology at the University of Bristol, where he remained until his retirement. He moved to Oxford as a fellow of Wolfson College in 1986, becoming an honorary fellow in 2001.

An exemplary scientific good citizen, he served as foreign secretary and vice-president of the Royal Society, and sat on boards and councils for numerous national and international research organisations, including as a special representative of the director general of Unesco; he was also a patron of Humanists UK. Among his many prizes and honorary degrees, he received the international Gairdner award for biomedical research in 1988. He was appointed CBE in 1985 and knighted in 1991.

“It was a series of accidents, really,” he said of his discovery in a conversation with Burkitt they recorded for Oxford Brookes University’s oral history archive in 1991. “Lucky quirks.” Burkitt immediately responded with Louis Pasteur’s aphorism: “Chance favours the prepared mind.”

Epstein was a deeply cultured man who retained a lively interest in many subjects – particularly oriental rugs, Tibet and amphibians – until the end of his life.

He is survived by his partner, Kate Ward, by his children Susan, Simon and Michael, from his marriage to Lisbeth Knight, from whom he was separated in 1965, and who died in 2015, and by two grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Book 45: The Icepick Surgeon

This week was a choice book, and last week has piqued my interest in a science history book again and who's more fun than Sam Kean? So I thought The Icepick Surgeon: Murder, Fraud, Sabotage, Piracy, and Other Dastardly Deeds Perpetrated in the Name of Science would make for a fun read. I suppose I should have paid more attention to the subtitle, because sure it had fun piracy, dinosaur wars, and money lender murders, but it also has slavery, misgendering and animal torture. Not all fun topics at all.

The first topic was piracy and that was fun, but the second was how science was entangled with slavery. Even something as abstract as Newton's Principia Mathematica used slave ship data on tides to propose the moon affected tides. Natural science was even worse and one could practically only get to Sub-Saharan Africa or South America to study plants and animals by slave ship transport and once there that was who you had to trade with for supplies. Even worse, many unscrupulous naturalists relied on slaves to gather samples, especially in the more dangerous areas. So tons of science museums' collections are built on slavery (in addition to the outright theft of property in history museums).

Other topics include the origins of forensic pathology helping solve a Harvard murder that resulted in the second and so far last Harvard graduate (and professor) to be executed, the dehumanizing experiments performed on a teenage Ted Kaczynski that undoubtedly helped turn him into the unibomber, and a overzealous yet lazy drug lab scientist swearing in court that a crushed up cashew was crack cocaine. The title refers to Walter Freeman performing lobotomies with a kitchen Icepick.

Best line: "Now, there's no truth to the rumor that Freeman dubbed the car he used on these trips "The Lobotomobile", but probably only because he didn't think of it."

Should you read this book: well, if you can stomach all the crimes against humanity and animals, it is very interesting. But there is a lot to take in. Sam Kean is always smooth, interesting reading

The galaxy TV station made an agreement to boost views. Creatures from 2 planets would go primitive for one week on the each other's planets.

The aliens who volunteered were random. The humans who volunteered were random. No one from either side were obvious experts. Just eager risk takers. They were told they could bring one item and the clothes they wore. Both teams would be supplied with irreplaceable air masks and a liquid filter for necessity. As soon as they were on the ships, they would live in luxury for the week long transfer. Each ship was well equipped with stuff on their home planet, and they had no access to information about the location. When the planets came in view, the windows were covered, and they were given a mini buffet and dressed in the clothes they brought. The hanger door opened, and both teams were instructed off. The ship left immediately.

The aliens were placed in Madagascar as a mellinium old reference to some Africa dream works movie with a lion, zebra, hippo, and giraff. Madagascar had been turned into a nature preserve along with many islands. The ecosystem had been restored by lab research and anti extinction scientists. The aliens were in awe. The only one who had ever been to earth had only ever seen the sky cities and a nature reserve called Colorado. There were no sky cities in sight. This was like a whole other world. They had been set on a boarding forest. Trees, bushes, and tall grass everywhere were filled with noise fluttering from every corner. The aliens thought humans were near and looked at their other option. It was an open grassland. With trees as wide as elephants. The leaves exploded out the very top. From a distance, they could see large animals that looked like specs compared to the trees. In fear, they went into the forest, dodging the crooked skinny trunks with stabbing branches all over. Small blurs scurred past above their heads. One alien who rock climbed back home thoguht to test all the trees for weight stability. He had hoped he'd be of help if they could see from higher up.

The humans were dropped off and practically ran into the new world. A geologist from earth was stunned by the glowing gem and hollwed out rocks. They looked at what might have been an obsidian wasteland. The rocks and natural holes like Swiss cheese and green liquid pooled in the pot holes along the ground. Behind them was something of beauty. A herd of animals 3 stories tall walked with shell covered legs. Its spikey skin buldged between the shells as it bent down to drink out of the green river. They had been dumped on a large island called Dodramatkiur. It was known for its half and half nature caused by a now stagnant volcano that erupted a thousand years before. The most terrifying part was the silence. They could hear there heart beats and distant thumping of the large animals. They could hear the river slowly hitting the rocky edge. Behind where the herd had flattened the ground was a forest like place. The trees with thick leaves covered in spots spirled up the trunks. One man tried to see if he could use them as stairs but it only held his weight for a few seconds. The largest man came over and suggest everyone shake to see if it was climbable with tools of sorts. It barely budged. Joy swept through the group.

(Sorry, I suck at writing) ( The groups continue, the aliens make a shelter first, but humans start making irrigation and develope a schedule while the aliens continue exploring. Half the aliens tap out on day 5 after a threatening attack by a Fassa fossa to an alien running ahead in the group. The rest tap out on day 6 when they get lost in plains and can't find a liquid source. One human taps out due to vitamin d deficiency in the cloudy planet with a few hours a day of sun and mostly light from three moons)

Day 7: (science explanation thing about how aliens would die from heat stroke or drying out in the sun)(humans built nice home and discovered they could use green liquid to swim and clean but not consume. They also found a way to have the lightest girl safely sprint up tree and harness a rope so the group could star gaze when the largest moon set)

Day 8: (Aliens put in medical things back home and humans deconstruct their space.)(disclaimer that no one died, sorry.)

"See you next time on New and Terrifying, that's all folks!"

Take a group of aliens from any Alliance, drop them in a forest on Earth, and they will be dead in a week. Take a group of humans and put them on any Deathworld and in one week there will be a functioning tribal society.

Global Diphtheria Market Insights, Epidemiology, and Future Outlook – 2032

Overview

Diphtheria, caused by the bacterium Corynebacterium diphtheriae, remains a critical public health concern despite the availability of vaccines. While the global burden has significantly reduced, outbreaks still occur, especially in low-resource settings. The diphtheria market spans preventive vaccines, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic interventions, with a projected rise in demand driven by enhanced healthcare infrastructure, public awareness, and immunization efforts. This report offers insights into the market trends, epidemiological patterns, and future outlook through 2032.

Market Insights

The diphtheria market is characterized by:

The dominance of DPT Vaccines: Diphtheria vaccines are often delivered as part of combined DPT (diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus) immunization programs, which dominate the preventive segment.

Government and NGO Initiatives: Global health organizations, such as WHO, UNICEF, and GAVI, are actively involved in expanding immunization coverage to eradicate vaccine-preventable diseases.

Growing Investment in Diagnostics: Faster detection of diphtheria cases through point-of-care tests and lab-based diagnostics is gaining momentum.

Regional Disparities: While developed countries maintain low infection rates, emerging economies in Africa, Southeast Asia, and South Asia face challenges in vaccine distribution, leading to periodic outbreaks.

Epidemiology Trends

Diphtheria remains under control in high-income countries due to comprehensive immunization programs. However, sporadic outbreaks in under-vaccinated regions persist. The disease is endemic in parts of South Asia and Africa, where conflict, poverty, and weak healthcare systems hinder vaccine distribution. Occasional cases in Europe and North America reflect the risks posed by incomplete vaccination or migration from affected areas.

Future Outlook – 2032

The global diphtheria market is expected to grow steadily over the next decade, driven by:

Expanded Immunization Programs: Governments will focus on closing vaccination gaps through campaigns targeting high-risk populations.

Development of Next-Generation Vaccines: Combined vaccines with broader immunization coverage will drive innovation and improve compliance.

Advancements in Diagnostics and Surveillance: The need for rapid outbreak detection will boost investments in diagnostic technologies and digital disease monitoring tools.

Public-Private Partnerships: Collaboration between governments, pharmaceutical companies, and NGOs will ensure sustainable vaccine supply chains.

Conclusion

While diphtheria is largely preventable, maintaining high vaccination coverage is essential to avoid future outbreaks. The market outlook through 2032 reflects steady growth, propelled by advancements in vaccine technology, enhanced diagnostics, and focused immunization efforts in vulnerable regions. Strengthening healthcare systems and addressing vaccine hesitancy will be crucial for achieving sustained control over diphtheria worldwide.

@random-thought-depository

I was thinking about that old remark about a future set cop show about the Blood Meat industry, some random notes

-US’s shit load of guns, is just not normal, even other parts of the world get a-lot of guns from the US. Guns flow into latin america and we get drugs from them. Depending on how far in the future it is set, gun logistics are a major practical concern, I could see a-lot more makeshift crossbows, more pitfalls, more snares, and old jaw traps.also even if old hunting rifles are around tons of bullets aren’t , that’s the real concern.

- also hooks/nets that’s huge, lots of it would be fish.

-Rabbits, quail, carp, pigeons, channel catfish, tilapia, shrimp, maybe ducks and chickens, small animals that could be theoretically raised in apartments or other small spaces , including fish that can tolerate mediocre water, easy to transport and hide, these would be most of the livestock.

- aloft of indiscriminate methods, ( fishing nets/ leg traps/ pits) lots of by-catch, you might get “bushmeat” like in parts of Africa today, chopping up and smoking to the point the species is unrecognizable, this would hide mice and rats, opossums, seagulls and crows, whatever animals someone might have taboos around eating. On the other hand this heavy processing might destroy the appeal in the first place, so it’s hard to say what it would look like

- Connection to modern wildlife crime, organized wildlife crime exists today and is a 7.8-10 Billion dollar industry, with another 4.2-9.5 Billion in unregulated and unrecorded fishing. Ivory, Rhino horn, Pangolin scales, dried seahorses, Exotic Pets , lab macaques, big cat bones or penises, songbird meat, shark fins, saiga horn, gorilla hands. Tibetan antelope skin, giraffe tails, hornbill casques, hummingbird luck charms, whale meat etc, I would like 1 or 2 episodes/cases focused on one of these sorts of things, just to drive the point home its the same sort of thing

- in the same vein, the attitude of these criminals, there dipping into there own supply, they think there macho tough guys, a-lot of modern animal crime is for supposed medical benefits, and often ( like for tiger bones/pensises ) is for male prowess tough guy reasons, the connection is clear, that’s much of the motivation for the costumer base, and the kind of people that would he drawn to the business. these blood-meat lords will be spitting Gymbro forum Keto Paleo Conservative Reddit conspiracy theory pseudo-science type shit about Meat and its quasi magical strength and Endurance and Virility and Testosterone and Health granting properties

- There will be a Wild Turkey episode thanksgiving holiday special, that’s the busiest time I think, sort of spooky Halloween cult vibes, whatuever american conservatism civic religion patriotism has devolved into, lots of people still demanding a Turkey on that day.
