Never too much of a good thing Research from the Fuchs Lab shows that different levels of Wnt proteins are able to drive a variety of outcomes in the skin. Low levels can drive hair follicle stem cells to divide, while higher amounts cause cell differentiation. Their results may provide insight into how overstimulating skin stem cells can lead to tumors. July 28, 2005

It literally is changing my perspective about how I think about the world we live in, and where we want to go from here.(Thank you for the suggestion, Aaron and Evan So far the chapter that has really resonated with me most is The Other Road Ahead , in which Paul writes, With web-based software, most users won't have to think about anything except the applications they use. All the messy, changing stuff will be sitting on a server somewhere, maintained by the kind of people who are good at that kind of thing... Desktop software forces users to become system administrators. Web-based software forces programmers to. There is less stress in total, but more for the programmers...

Extractions: Archive Main Now, no one tell Joshs wife that he sneaked away to post during his honeymoon. While Josh was posting from an undisclosed, but sunny, location, I was reminded of a much colder time: the weeks after the Republican takeover of Congress in 1994. Democrats Advertisement were devastated; pundits were gabbing hysterically about the dawning of prime ministerial government in the US. That December, I returned from England and had a conversation with the historian Fred Siegel , a friend and mentor of mine. Fred said not to worry; he wished control of the House of Representatives on the GOP as, eventually, it would turn them into what the Democrats on the Hill had become by the late 1990s an out-of-touch, Beltway party focused on the needs of the donors who fund their campaigns. In Slate this week, Jacob Weisberg notes that this prediction has come true. Interest-group conservatism, he argues, has replaced interest-group liberalism with all its accompanying pathologies. Weisbergs piece underscores what many across the party have argued: that Democrats must seize the mantle of reform. Embracing a reform agenda along with developing a forward-looking public philosophy will not only rid Democrats of the worst excesses of interest-group liberalism, but put us on track to do what the GOP did a decade ago: win.

Paul Marshall On Newsweek & Koran On National Review Online By paul Marshall. The shakily sourced may 9 Newsweek report that interrogators had desecrated a Koran at Guantanamo Bay is likely to do more damage to the http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/marshall200505160837.asp
Extractions: By Paul Marshall T he shakily sourced May 9 Newsweek report that interrogators had desecrated a Koran at Guantanamo Bay is likely to do more damage to the U.S. than the Abu Ghraib prison scandals. What is also deeply disturbing is that the journalists who put the report out seem somewhat clueless about this reality. Since the story was published there has been outrage and mayhem in much of the Muslim world. Demonstrations erupted in Pakistan after Imran Khan, a former cricket player and now opposition political figure, read sections from the article at a press conference. Riots broke out throughout Afghanistan, mobs attacked government and aid-organization offices, and 15 people have died so far. Anti-American demonstrations have taken took place from north Africa to Indonesia. Sheikh Sayed Tantawi, the head of Al-Azhar in Cairo, the major center of Sunni learning, called the purported desecration a great crime, while Egypts mufti, Sheikh Ali Gomaa, called it an unforgivable crime and aggression on Islams sacred values. The Gulf Cooperation Council, a set of American allies, called for the harshest punishment so that the dignity of Muslims could be preserved. Officials in Gaza and Iran also waded in. This weekend, Abdul Fatah Fayeq, the senior judicial figure in Afghanistans Badakhshan Province, read out a statement from 300 Muslim clerics stating that President Bush should hand the culprits over to an Islamic country for punishment or else we will launch a jihad against America.
Extractions: Paul Martin was recently in Libya, making a "strong pitch" for giving Canadian companies access to markets there. What companies? The only one named was SNC-Lavalin. Where have we heard that name before? Oh yeah, they're the ones who make the bullets used in Iraq . We can all be glad that Martinour highest elected officialis so keen to give them a boost on the international stage. And what could better sum up Paul Martin's foreign policy than visiting a formerly isolated "terrorist" state with the cynical aim of drumming up business for a company that manufactures the bullets that kill Iraqis? What was that rumour I heard a long time ago, that Canada was a "humanitarian" country?

Extractions: HERMAN GOODDEN What a week this has been. What a life. What a Pope. Until last Friday evening, I had resisted getting on board the papal deathwatch bandwagon. It all seemed a little ghoulish, and so many times over the preceding decade, the prognosticaters of John Paul II's demise had been proven premature. But the auspices that night were suddenly irrefutable. The Vatican had just released brutally frank details of the pontiff's deteriorating condition that only pointed one way. And after weeks and months of hospital visits, this time the Pope was staying put in his private apartment with the clear intention of dying there. The news networks kept running footage of his final, agonizingly mute appearance at his window from just a few days earlier, silently making the sign of the cross as he blessed the crowds assembled below. Whether he was trying to summon his voice from inside his chest or just shifting to ease his discomfort, it was unmistakable that the end was at hand. This great and courageous old soul had given all he could give in the service of his Lord. At about 8 p.m., I set down the remote (was ever an instrument more accurately named?), hauled myself off the couch and cycled up to St. Peter's Cathedral. It was time to rescue this historic passage from the distancing prism of TV and bring it into the real world. I'd seen no notice of any sort of vigil service, but I knew I wouldn't be alone in my need to gather and pray for the Pope's safe passage into the waiting arms of God.

Extractions: Main May 27, 2005 Food Blog - The lost recipes. Over the years of doing this, I've collected many photos of dishes I've never written up. Whether due to laziness or some other affliction, these dishes will never have accompanying recipes. But rather than rot in my photo files, I'll serve some of them up here anyway. Pasta with Italian Sausage. This is a typical everyday meal for me. This usualy turns out better coated with mozarella in thrown in the oven for awhile. Lamb Curry. Made with the excellent red curry from the Spice House. Probably made with some hot thai peppers, mushrooms and coconut milk. Short ribs and soba. Some sort of vegetables, probably lots of red peppers. Beef and Mushroom pasty. Pie dough type crust. I obviously followed a recipe from somewhere. Beef Stroganoff. This also had to be made from a recipe. I wouldn't now how to make it just by winging it. Kumquat Chicken with Fennel and Spaetzle. Probably lots of honey and ginger to make that nice glaze.

Extractions: In the software business there is an ongoing struggle between the pointy-headed academics, and another equally formidable force, the pointy-haired bosses. Everyone knows who the pointy-haired boss is, right? I think most people in the technology world not only recognize this cartoon character, but know the actual person in their company that he is modelled upon. Why does he think this? Let's take a look inside the brain of the pointy-haired boss. What he's thinking is something like this. Java is a standard. I know it must be, because I read about it in the press all the time. Since it is a standard, I won't get in trouble for using it. And that also means there will always be lots of Java programmers, so if the programmers working for me now quit, as programmers working for me mysteriously always do, I can easily replace them.
Hackers And Painters may 2003 (This essay is derived from a guest lecture at Harvard, 1 The greatest damage that photography has done to painting may be the fact that it http://www.paulgraham.com/hp.html
Extractions: When I finished grad school in computer science I went to art school to study painting. A lot of people seemed surprised that someone interested in computers would also be interested in painting. They seemed to think that hacking and painting were very different kinds of work that hacking was cold, precise, and methodical, and that painting was the frenzied expression of some primal urge. What hackers and painters have in common is that they're both makers. Along with composers, architects, and writers, what hackers and painters are trying to do is make good things. They're not doing research per se, though if in the course of trying to make good things they discover some new technique, so much the better. I've never liked the term "computer science." The main reason I don't like it is that there's no such thing. Computer science is a grab bag of tenuously related areas thrown together by an accident of history, like Yugoslavia. At one end you have people who are really mathematicians, but call what they're doing computer science so they can get DARPA grants. In the middle you have people working on something like the natural history of computers studying the behavior of algorithms for routing data through networks, for example. And then at the other extreme you have the hackers, who are trying to write interesting software, and for whom computers are just a medium of expression, as concrete is for architects or paint for painters. It's as if mathematicians, physicists, and architects all had to be in the same department.
