POPSCan Recycling Be Used To Treat Cancer? The researchers discovered a compound, STF-62247, that was selectively toxic to RCCs deficient in VHL whereas cells with normal VHL were not affected. Treatment of RCC cells lacking functional VHL induced autophagy, a cellular recycling process that cells normally use to conserve resources during times of stress. "Increasing evidence implicates a role for autophagy in cancer, but it is not well understood how cellular and environmental cues drive autophagic cells down survival or death pathways," explains Dr. Giaccia. The researchers demonstrated that STF-62247 enhanced autophagy in VHL-deficient cells while inhibition of the autophagy pathway significantly increased the survival of VHL-deficient cells treated with STF-62247. "We have found a small molecule that selectively induces cell death in VHL-deficient cells, such as those that are found in kidney cancer. This represents a paradigm shift for targeted therapy," concludes Dr. Giaccia.

POPSSolar Energy in India and the Rise of Global Awareness Very interesting: "per capita emissions." Does this mean that in the future, you could be taxed differently than your neighbour depending on what car you drive, how far you commute, how much you recycle. It's already slightly that way, for instance you can get tax rebates for buying solar panels. If it was broken down into 'per capita emissions' though, this would be a very different story.

POPSGreen free I am now so disgusted with this "green" movement crap that I am designating this as the first Green Free Blog on the internet. I vow to burn more tires, use more aerosols, use only contraband refrigerants, eat one cabbage a day and fart frequently, turn the heat or air conditioning to the highest level in any home or office I visit, eat meat three times a day, use only plastic bags, recycle nothing, fire 50 lead bullets daily, take seven showers a day, drive my car to the mailbox, flush twice, encourage people to barbecue more, kill any whales I stumble upon, mow the lawn daily, gun my engine, kick Algore in the nuts if I ever meet him, and never buy any product that mentions the word Green, Environment, or Friendly.
