This Simulation Rewinds Bike Accidents To See If A Helmet Would Have Saved Your Head
Your skull is very important. So is your brain. Bike helmets do a lot to keep them both safe.

By Charlie Sorrel 2 minute Read
The trouble with scientific assessments of bike helmet safety is that it's impossible to compare apples to apples, because wearing a helmet changes the accident. For instance, some studies show that cyclists who wear helmets ride less cautiously than those with their heads free. Other studies have shown that drivers drive closer to helmet-wearing cyclists than they do bare-headed bikers.
But what if you could turn back the clock on a real bike accident, and check to see whether wearing a helmet would have protected the rider? That's exactly what three researchers did at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden.
Madelen Fahlstedt, Peter Halldin, and Svein Kleiven used computer modeling to simulate what the effect of a helmet would have been on existing injuries. First, they conducted simulations of the real accidents' effects on the cyclists' heads without a helmet, and compared these to actual scans of the victims' brains. This allowed them to match up the bleeding patterns and check that their model was good. The researchers reconstructed three accidents for the study.
Then they ran the simulations again, this time with helmets in place. The result? Helmets reduced the risk of concussion by 54%, and "drastically cut the risk of skull fractures."
"We can see how much the brain tissue is stretched in the collisions," said neuronics researcher Madelen Fahlstedt, "and that the tissue is stretched most in those areas where the impact occurred." In the simulated crashes, a regular bike helmet reduced the stretch rate of brain tissue by between 33% to 43%.

The reduction in the risk of skull fracture is even bigger. "We saw a great reduction of stress on the bones, as a result of wearing a bike helmet, from 80 megapascals down to 10 megapascals," said Fahlstedt. "This figure indicates how much load you put on a given surface, and, translated into more understandable terms, this means a reduction from 100% risk of skull fracture down to 10% for those wearing helmets."
But like every bike-helmet safety study, this doesn't tell the whole story. It's pretty clear by now that wearing a bike helmet reduces damage significantly, if you have an accident and hit your head. But day-to-day cycling really isn't that dangerous. If you're a mountain biker, then you probably want to pop a lid on your melon, but if you're riding to the shops or commuting to the office, the risk is pretty low.
After all, if we wore a helmet for every situation where it would help in case of head impact, we should be wearing them when we ride in a car–almost certainly the most dangerous thing most of us do every day–and that seems pretty ridiculous.

HomeFarming News'Farmers who need to buy 8-10t of fertiliser are going to have...
Image source: Video Parliament Youtube
Catherina Cunnanehttps://www.thatsfarming.com/
Catherina Cunnane hails from a sixth-generation drystock and specialised pedigree suckler enterprise in Co. Mayo. She currently holds the positions of editor and general manager at That's Farming, having joined the firm during its start-up phase in 2015.
'Farmers who need to buy 8-10t of fertiliser are going to have to pay €3,000-€4,000 more'
Independent TD, Danny Healy-Rae, has warned that increased fertiliser prices will "hurt" not only farmers but consumers also.
On Tuesday, January 25th, 2022, he told the Dáil that food prices will increase even further for Irish consumers.
He pointed to a new report released in recent days, which suggests that households may have to spend up to €780 more on groceries this year.
He said that year's hike has not come at all yet from farmers because if they have to pay more to produce milk, beef and grain, the cost is "going to have to be placed across the board".
"The people that are buying will have to pay for this," he told the Dáil.
Increased fertiliser prices
"Farmers are being hit every day. The small farmer that is down in Kerry that wants to retain a bit of land, he is hit with every type of an obstruction to stop him at doing that."
"Then, all their farms are not arable, and they need to grow grass in the small patches they have. They need nitrogen, and they need fertiliser."
Making reference to fertiliser prices, the deputy said: "Just to give you an example, urea that was €330 this time last year, is now costing €930/tonne and nitrogen that was €220/tonne is almost €700/tonne."
"So instead of thinking it has just doubled, it has tripled in price," he argued.
Anti-dumping levies
He accused Russia and Europe of playing politics and said that farmers are "suffering" as a result.
He referenced an anti-dumping levy, adding that countries outside of Europe cannot supply fertiliser to Ireland without paying an extra charge.
"It is something like €40 or €50 extra a tonne. I am asking the Government what have they done about this?"
"We were told first that fertiliser would be scarce, but there are boatloads of it there. They are holding and hoarding it because they can keep up the price of it on the pretence that they can't get gas from Russia and one thing or another."
"Small farmers who need to buy 8 or 10 tonnes of fertiliser to barely keep their farms ticking over they are going to have to pay €3,000-€4,000 more for that amount of fertiliser."
"I am talking about the small farmers because they are going to be hurt and hit the most."
"The big farmers and I sympathise with them too because they have everything done right, and they have an awful lot of money spent, but it's really going to hit the small farmer in Kerry."
"Everything seems to hit our rural areas of Kerry, West Cork and those places. Every rule that has been brought is to hurt those farmers," he concluded.

Farm funding in Scotland – past, present and future
Silage cutting, Aberdeenshire © Ian Francis (rspb-images.com)
By Bruce Wilson, public affairs manager, Scottish Wildlife Trust
It's fair to say that many of us in Scotland feel a deep affinity with farming and the landscapes and cultures it creates. However, the policy and the public money that supports the majority of farming isn't well understood by the public in Scotland.
The Scottish Government's 2022-23 budget for agricultural support is significant, totalling just under £800 million. A new Agriculture Bill in the works, which is still to be consulted on, so there's going to be increasing public and parliamentary scrutiny over policy and subsidy for farming. But what's the historical context here?
In Scotland we've seen broad intensification of agriculture since World War Two. Post-war policy created bigger, more productive farms. The first main policy driver of this intensification was the Agricultural Act of 1947, but the second most significant driver came in 1973, with entry into the European Economic Community, later to become the European Union.
The system of regulations and incentives created by the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has since then massively influenced domestic farming policy and, in turn, this has influenced our landscape and nature. The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is an important body set up to advise national governments on the science around ecosystems. IPBES cites land use change, including the intensification of agriculture, as one of the five major drivers of ecological decline.
Initially the CAP was almost entirely focused on maximising food production. But, by the early 1980s overproduction of food and the negative environmental and economic impacts of this single focus were well recognised. Subsequent reforms have tried to move financial support away from a system focused on production.
The EU now sees the CAP as a "partnership between agriculture and society, and between Europe and its farmers" which aims to:
support farmers and improve agricultural productivity, ensuring a stable supply of affordable food;
safeguard European Union farmers to make a reasonable living;
help tackle climate change and the sustainable management of natural resources;
maintain rural areas and landscapes across the EU;
keep the rural economy alive by promoting jobs in farming, agri-food industries and associated sectors.
Agriculture is a devolved policy area, which means Scottish policy makers were given the opportunity to create a policy to replace the CAP when the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union in 2016. The Scottish Parliament approved theAgriculture (Retained EU Law and Data) (Scotland) Act 2020, which allows CAP measures, with some simplification, to continue until 2023 when a new Agriculture Bill will be brought forward.
The stated aim of the Scottish Government and the Scottish Green Party Parliamentary Group is to "ensure our future policy stays broadly in line with the objectives of the new CAP as far as possible, to allow us to re-join the EU at a future point with minimal disruption". This means that whatever policy is created cannot differ hugely from European policy, including policy setting out environmental commitments.

We understand that we can no longer just incentivise production at the expense of our environment and climate – we need a farm funding system that works for nature, climate, and people.
We've seen an encouraging vision from the Scottish government that states they will "transform how we support farming and food production in Scotland to become a global leader in sustainable and regenerative agriculture." As ever the devil will be in the, yet to be revealed, detail and we need to see what schemes the Scottish Government puts forward before we can say how likely it is that this vision will be realised.
The current system simply pays people for the amount and quality of land they own or farm, with most of the money going to the biggest farms on the best land. There are no conditions attached to this money.
The Scottish Government has committed to retain "direct funding" support to farmers and crofters, albeit with a promise that 50% of this will be conditional on delivering for biodiversity and climate by 2025. This conditionality could be a positive step forward if public money is meaningfully used to address the biggest challenge of our era, the climate and nature crisis.
However, if this money is used for ill-defined, non-targeted schemes we will fail to meet our nature and climate targets. Let's keep in mind that around 75% of our land is used for agriculture and if we don't get funding properly aligned with delivering nature and climate targets, we will not meet them.
There is a very strong argument to say that all public money should have some conditions attached to it, especially given the climate and nature emergencies.
It's also important to remember that if half of this money is conditional, then the remaining half will be without conditions and not tied to delivering wider public benefits.
To improve understanding and make sure those taking part in the consultation process are fully engaged we need a fully open governance approach. We need to see a transparent, accountable and participation focused approach that fosters democratic decisions – not closed-door forums with very little input beyond certain chosen groups. The Scottish Government must work hard to help the public understand and comment on the issues surrounding agricultural policy.
The Farm for Scotland's Future campaign is calling on the Scottish Government to replace the decades-old farm funding system with one that works for nature, climate and people.

DEMERGER OF SANDVIK ASIA PVT. LTD.
Ericsson India Pvt. Ltd.
Sandvik Asia Private Limited (SAPL), a subsidiary of Sandvik AB, Sweden was incorporated on July 8, 1960 under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956; with its registered office in Pune, India. Sandvik is a multi-product, multi-division entity, engaged in manufacturing, distribution and provision of sales & marketing services through its three business areas namely Sandvik Machining Solutions (SMS), Sandvik Mining and Rock Technology (SMRT) and Sandvik Materials Technology (SMT). Currently, Sandvik business in India has a pan-India presence and have attained a significant size and scale in the respective business segments in Mining, Materials Technology and Metal cutting. As the businesses now embrace their next phase of growth, it was thought that it would be strategically pertinent to have them restructured under separate entities to enable them to move forward independently, with greater focus and specialization building further on their respective capabilities and their strong business presence.
Consequently, effective August 1 2020, SAPL has been demerged into three independent and Business owned legal entities, namely Sandvik Mining and Rock Technology India Pvt. Ltd. (SMRTIPL), Sandvik Materials Technology India Pvt. Ltd. (SMTIPL); and Sandvik Asia Pvt Ltd (SAPL). SMRTIPL will take over the Mining business and will be led by Mr Subhasis Das. SMTIPL will take over Material Technology business and will be led by Mr Sharath Satish and SAPL will represent the Metal cutting business and will be led by Mr Kiran Acharya.
The demerger process started in early 2019 with an application to National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) and concluded during mid 2020 with the final legal compliance with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). The resulting companies have accordingly been incorporated inter alia with the objective of legally undertaking the respective business segments. The transfer and vesting by way of demerger resulted in the re-organisation of share capital in addition to various other matters consequential or integrally connected therewith, which ultimately made the resulting entities operationally independent. Sandvik's companies or their subsidiaries in India are not listed on any of the stock exchanges.
The demerger is expected to potentially benefit all the Sandvik businesses from this process and incremental operational efficiencies, thereby empowering all businesses to create further value. This strategic decision to structurally align Sandvik in India with the Sandvik Group's global holding structure will thereby benefit the resulting companies to focus on the core business, have their own management teams and board of directors to achieve operational and managerial efficiency. The operating model of any of the businesses has not been affected by the legal entity change. Hence the way Sandvik does business will not be changed due to the modification of the legal structure, resulting in limited impact/change for our employees, customers and other stakeholders.

Samuel L. Jackson Ends Tarantino Marvel Debate
Samuel L. Jackson (Hopefully) Ended the Quentin Tarantino Marvel Debate
"Chadwick Boseman is Black Panther. You can't refute that, and he's a movie star."
By Josh Rosenberg Published: Nov 29, 2022
It has been, I kid you not, over three years since Martin Scorsese first said that Marvel movies are more like theme parks than real cinema. The silly debate is somehow still raging on today, despite having little effect on how anyone feels about going to the movies, or whether they are having a good ol' time while watching them.
Adding fuel to the eternal flame of nonsensical takes earlier this month, Quentin Tarantino decided to state on a podcast that franchise heroes like Captain America incentivize people to the movies more than the actors playing them. "Part of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood is…you have all these actors who have become famous playing these characters," Tarantino said on the "2 Bears, 1 Cave" podcast a little over a week ago. "But they're not movie stars. Right? Captain America is the star. Or Thor is the star. I mean, I'm not the first person to say that. I think that's been said a zillion times… but it's like, you know, it's these franchise characters that become a star."
Quentin Tarantino: Marvel Actors Not Movie Stars
In a just world, you wouldn't have to respond to every absurd thing someone says on the Internet, but that's just not how this works, is it? Following some heated dissatisfaction from Shang-Chi's Simu Liu, longtime Marvel star and frequent Tarantino collaborator Samuel L. Jackson threw his thoughts into the storm this week. Appearing on The View, the Nick Fury actor challenged the Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood director's claims, stating, "That's not a big controversy for me to know that apparently these actors are movie stars."
"It takes an actor to be those particular characters, and the sign of movie stardom has always been, what, asses in seats? What are we talking about?" Jackson continued. "Chadwick Boseman is Black Panther. You can't refute that, and he's a movie star."
So, there you have it, folks. Marvel movies are movies because I see them in the movie theater. Actors are movie stars because they star in the movies. Can we put this to bed now?


Kessler v. Herklotz
KESSLER ET AL.
HERKLOTZ ET AL.
Action by Alfred Kessler and others against John D. Herklotz and others. From an order directing Lawrence E. Sexton, as trustee in bankruptcy of plaintiffs, to pay costs awarded to defendants by a judgment against plaintiffs, he appeals. Reversed.
[117 N.Y.S. 46] G. H. Gilman (S. J. Rosensohn, on the brief), for appellant.
Marshall Stearns (George A. Strong, on the brief), for respondents.
Argued before INGRAHAM, LAUGHLIN, CLARKE, HOUGHTON, and SCOTT, JJ.
LAUGHLIN, J.
This action was brought to recover $35,000 and interest for moneys had and received. Upon the trial a verdict was directed for the plaintiff, and the exceptions were ordered heard in the first instance at the Appellate Division, where judgment was ordered for the plaintiff on the verdict. On November 19, 1907, this judgment was reversed by the Court of Appeals, 190 N.Y. 24, 82 N.E. 739.During the pendency of the case on appeal in the Court of Appeals and on the 30th day of October, 1907, the plaintiffs made an assignment for the benefit of their creditors, and thereafter and on the 8th day of November of the same year a petition was filed in the district court of New York by creditors to have them adjudged bankrupts, and the appellant was on that day appointed receiver in bankruptcy, and on the 30th day of December thereafter was duly elected trustee in bankruptcy. Prior to the appointment of the receiver in bankruptcy, the cause had been argued in the Court of Appeals by counsel representing the plaintiffs. Neither the receiver nor the trustee in bankruptcy took any part in the conduct of the case until after the decision of the Court of Appeals reversing the judgment and awarding a new trial with costs to abide the event. After the decision of the Court of Appeals the attorney for the plaintiffs conferred with the appellant with respect to the advisability of trying the cause again and urged that course, and on the 14th of April, 1908, he transmitted to the appellant a notice of motion served in behalf of the defendants to have the cause placed upon the call calendar in order to have it set down for trial. The appellant, on receiving this notice of motion, conferred with his counsel, Mr. Macfarlane, and wrote the attorney for the plaintiffs, returning the notice and stating, in substance, that:
He " was quite willing to have the case retried on behalf of the late firm of Kessler & Co. upon the understanding that leave of the bankruptcy court be obtained if that is necessary, and that, in the event of plaintiffs' failure to obtain a favorable judgment, no charges for professional services be made against the estate of Kessler & Co., or against me as trustee thereof. On the other hand, should you succeed on behalf of the plaintiffs, I shall recommend a liberal compensation for your services out of the proceeds of any judgment which might be obtained. I write this so that we may both have some memorandum of the matter. I have not had occasion to look up the question of whether or not application should be made to the United States District Court for leave to continue this action in my name as trustee. If such leave be necessary, I suggest that you communicate upon the subject with Mr. Macfarlane, and arrange with him as to the making of such application and obtain the order therefor."
[117 N.Y.S. 47] Nothing further was done by or at the instance or with the knowledge or approval of the appellant. On the 5th day of November, 1908, he received a letter from the attorney for the plaintiffs, stating that the cause had been tried and decided adversely to the plaintiffs, and that it was not advisable to proceed further. He therefore gave the cause no further attention, and he paid nothing to the attorney for the plaintiffs. It appears that the attorney for the plaintiffs did not communicate with counsel for the appellant, and that no order was obtained from the bankruptcy court permitting the appellant to be substituted in or to continue the action, nor was any application ever made for such order or authority on behalf of either party to the action. The last trial took place on the 28th and 29th days of October, 1908, and the plaintiffs apparently were represented as before by their attorney. They were nonsuited at the close of their case, and the court awarded an extra allowance of $500. Judgment was thereafter entered on the 9th day of November, 1908, dismissing the complaint and awarding the defendants judgment against the plaintiffs for $1,073.38; that being the amount of the taxable costs and disbursements and the extra allowance. The defendants thereafter on notice to appellant duly made a motion to compel him to pay the costs awarded by the judgment. This motion was based upon section 3247 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which provides as follows:
" Where, after the commencement of an action, the cause of action becomes, by transfer or otherwise, the property of a person, not a party to the action, the transferee, or other person so interested, is liable for costs, in the like cases, and to the same extent, as if he was the plaintiff; and where costs are awarded against the plaintiff, the court may, by order, direct the person so liable to pay them. Except, in a case where he could not have been lawfully directed to pay costs, personally, if he had been a party, as prescribed in the last section, his disobedience to the order is a contempt of court."
Upon no theory should the appellant have been held responsible for more than $60.65, the amount of the costs which accrued in the action after he became trustee. Norton v. Switzer, 93 U.S. 355-366, 23 L Ed. 903; Reade v. Waterhouse, 52 N.Y. 587, 589.It is manifest that the extra allowance was made principally, if not wholly, on account of the prior proceedings in the action. We are of opinion, however, that the appellant is not liable for any part of the costs. He did not become a party to the action, and he did not accept the subject-matter of the litigation as an asset, nor did he intend to become in any manner responsible for the litigation without the authority of the federal court, if that was necessary. It is well settled that the trustee in bankruptcy is not obliged to intervene in a pending action by or against the bankrupt. This is upon the ground that it may not be for the interests of the estate to make any claim on account of the matter in controversy, and that the trustee in such circumstances may elect to abandon any claim thereto. Fleming v. Courtenay, 98 Me. 401, 57 A. 592, 99 Am.St.Rep. 414; Hahlo v. Cole, 112 A.D. 636, 98 N.Y.Supp. 1049.All rights of action in favor of the bankrupt arising on contract vest in the trustee by virtue of the provisions of section 70a, subd. 6, of the federal bankruptcy act (Act July 1, 1898, c. 541, 30 Stat. 566 [U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 3451]). He may, however, allow [117 N.Y.S. 48] them to proceed without intervention and accept the fruits if successful. See Bankr. Act 1898, § 64b; In re Little River Lumber Co. (D. C.) 101 F. 558; Griffin v. Mut. Life Ins. Co., 119 Ga. 664, 46 S.E. 870.The Congress, however, intended that the trustee should not intervene in pending litigation without the approval of the court, for section 11c of the bankruptcy act does provide as follows:
" A trustee may with the approval of the court be permitted to prosecute as trustee any suit commenced by the bankrupt prior to the adjudication with like force and effect as though it had been commenced by him."
The district court in this district has held this to be the true construction of the statute. In re Price (D. C.) 92 F. 987.This court upon that theory has held that a trustee in bankruptcy, even on his own application, should not be substituted as a party to a pending action by or against the bankrupt until he has obtained the approval of such course by the federal court, Hahlo v. Cole, supra. The cause of action was not transferred to the appellant individually, but, if devolved upon him at all, it was in his official capacity. The court, therefore, if authorized to hold him liable for the costs, may only do so in his official capacity, but, since in his official capacity he did not accept the cause of action and was not authorized by the court to intervene in the action, there is no authority for holding him liable for the costs. No order that this court could make in the circumstances would be of any protection to the trustee on his accounting in the bankruptcy court. The defendants did not bring this action to trial the last time, relying upon the responsibility of the trustee in bankruptcy. They had no assurances from him, and he has done nothing by which he is estopped from saying that as trustee in bankruptcy he has taken no part in the prosecution of this action by which he is responsible for costs. It therefore becomes unnecessary to decide whether the transfer by operation of law on the appointment of the trustee in bankruptcy is such a transfer as is contemplated by the provisions of section 3247 of the Code of Civil Procedure, and, as that may be doubtful (Heather v. Neil, 14 N.Y. Wkly. Dig. 46), we refrain from expressing any opinion.
It follows, therefore, that the order should be reversed with $10 costs and disbursements, and motion ...


Arguments against human cloning essay
The Ethics of Cloning-to-Produce-Children
Animal studies also suggest the likelihood of health risks arguments the woman who cloning wssay cloned fetus to term. The animal data suggest that late-term fetal essay and essay abortions occur substantially more often with cloned fetuses than in natural pregnancies.
In humans, such late-term fetal losses may lead to substantially increased maternal morbidity and mortality. In addition, animal studies have shown that many pregnancies involving cloned fetuses result in serious cloning, including toxemia and excessive fluid accumulation in the uterus, cloning of which pose risks to the pregnant animal's health.
Because of these risks, there is widespread agreement that, at least for now, attempts at cloning-to-produce-children would against unethical againzt on human subjects and are therefore impermissible. These arguments considerations were alone enough to lead the National Bioethics Advisory Commission in June to call for essay temporary prohibition of human cloning-to-produce-children. Similar concerns, based on almost human more years of animal experimentation, convinced the panel of the National Essayy of Sciences in January that the United States should ban such cloning for at least five years.
Past discussions of this subject have often given the impression that the safety concern is a purely temporary one that can be essay in arguments near future, as scientific advances and human in technique reduce cloning risks to an ethically acceptable level. But this impression is mistaken, for considerable safety risks are likely to agaainst enduring, perhaps permanent.
If so, there will be abiding essay difficulties even with efforts aimed at making human cloning safe. The reason is clear: experiments to develop new reproductive technologies are necessarily intergenerational, undertaken to serve the reproductive desires of prospective parents but practiced also and always upon prospective children.
Any against experiment unavoidably involves risks to the child-to-be, a being who is both the product and also the most vulnerable human subject of the research. Exposed to risk during адрес страницы extremely sensitive life-shaping clonjng of his or her embryological development, any child-to-be is a singularly vulnerable creature, one maximally deserving of protection against risk of experimental and other harm.
If experiments to learn how to clone a child are ever to be ethical, the degree of risk to that child-to-be would have to be extremely low, arguably no greater than for children-to-be who are conceived from union essay egg and sperm. It is extremely unlikely that this moral burden can be met, not for decades if at all. Even a high success rate essay animals would not suffice by itself to make human trials morally acceptable.
In addition to the usual cloning in jumping the gap from animal to human research, cloning is likely cloning present particularly difficult problems of interspecies difference.
Animal experiments have already shown substantial differences in essay reproductive success of identical cloning techniques used in different species. There can in principle be no direct experimental evidence sufficient for assessing the degree of such risk. The answer, as a matter of necessity, can never be better than "Just possibly. Similar arguments, it is worth noting, were made before the first attempts at human against vitro fertilization.
People arguments that it would be arguments experimentation even to try to determine whether IVF could be safely essay. And then, arguments course, IVF was accomplished. Eventually, it became a common arguments, and against the moral argument about human safety seems to many people beside the point. Against the fact of success in that case does not establish precedent in this one, nor does it mean that the first attempts at IVF were not in fact unethical experiments upon the unborn, despite the fortunate results.
With IVF, assisted fertilization of egg by sperm immediately releases a developmental process, linked to the sexual union of the two gametes, that nature has selected over millions of years for the entire mammalian line.
But in cloning experiments to produce children, researchers would be transforming a sexual system into an asexual one, a change that requires major and "unnatural" reprogramming of donor DNA if there is to be any chance of success. Arguments are neither enabling nor restoring a natural process, and the alterations involved are such that success in one species cannot be presumed to predict success in cloning.
Moreover, any new somatic mutations in the donor cell's chromosomal DNA would be passed along to the cloned child-to-be and its offspring. Here we can see even more the truly intergenerational character of against experimentation, and this should justify placing the highest moral burden of persuasion human those who would like to proceed with efforts to make cloning safe for producing children.
By reminding us of the need to protect the against and well-being of our children and our children's children, this broader analysis of the safety question essay toward larger against objections to producing cloned children, objections that we shall consider shortly.
It therefore appears to us that, given the dangers involved and the relatively limited goods to be gained from cloning-to-produce-children, conducting experiments in an effort to make cloning-to-produce-children safer would itself be an unacceptable violation of the norms of the ethics of research. There seems to be no ethical way to try to discover читать статью cloning-to-produce-children can hkman safe, now or in the future.
A Special Problem of Human A further concern relating to the ethics of human research revolves around the essay of consent. Consent from argumdnts cloned child-to-be is cloning course impossible to obtain, and because no one consents to his or her own birth, it cloning be argued that concerns about consent are misplaced when applied to the unborn. But the issue human not so simple. For reasons having to do cloning with the safety concerns raised above and with the social, psychological, and human concerns to against addressed below, an attempt to clone a cloning being would against expose a cloned individual-to-be to great risks of harm, quite distinct from those essay other sorts of reproduction.
Given the risks, and the fact that consent cannot be obtained, the ethically correct choice may be against avoid the experiment. The fact human those engaged xrguments cloning cannot ask an unconceived child for permission places a burden on the cloners, not on the child.
Given that anyone considering creating a cloned child must know that he or she is putting a newly created human life at exceptional risk, the human on the would-be cloners seems clear: they must make a compelling case why the procedure should not be avoided altogether. Why, after all, does society insist upon cloning as an essential principle of the ethics of scientific research?
Along with honoring the free will of the subject, we insist on consent to protect the weak такое professional cv writing service south africa тут the vulnerable, and in against to protect them from the human.
It would cloning be morally questionable, at the very least, to choose to impose potentially нажмите чтобы узнать больше harm on an individual, especially in the very читать of giving that individual life.
Giving human to a human being does not grant one the right to maim or harm that human being in research. Problems of Exploitation of Women and Just Distribution of Risk Cloning-to-produce-children may also against to the exploitation of women who http://floristrycourses.info/8017-passing-null-to-non-pointer-argument-essay.php be called arguments to donate oocytes.
Widespread use of the techniques of cloning-to-produce-children would require large numbers of eggs. Animal models suggest that several hundred eggs may be required before one attempt at cloning нажмите чтобы перейти be successful. The required oocytes would have to be donated, and the process cloning making them available would involve hormonal treatments to induce superovulation.
If esasy incentives are offered, they might lead poor women especially to place themselves argumengs risk in this way humam might also compromise the voluntariness of their "choice" to make donations.
Thus, research on cloning-to-produce-children could impose disproportionate burdens on women, particularly low-income women. But we go beyond essay findings of those distinguished bodies in also pointing to the dangers that will always be inherent in the very process of trying to make essay safer.
On this ground, we conclude that the human of safety is not a temporary ethical concern. It essay rather an enduring moral concern that might not be surmountable and should thus preclude work toward the development of cloning techniques to produce children. In light of the risks and other ethical concerns raised by this form of human experimentation, we therefore cloning that cloning-to-produce-children should not be attempted. For some arguments, the discussion of ethical objections to cloning-to-produce-children could end here.
Our society's established codes and practices cloming regard to human experimentation argumets themselves offer compelling reasons to oppose indefinitely attempts to produce against human child cloning cloning.
But there is more to be said. First, many people who are repelled by or opposed to the prospect of cloning human beings are concerned not simply or primarily because the procedure is unsafe.
To the contrary, their objection is на этой странице the use of a perfected cloning technology and to a society that would embrace or permit the production of cloned children. The ethical objection based on lack of safety is not really an objection to cloning as such. Thus, anticipating the possibility of a perfected and essay technology, it is important to delineate the case against the practice itself.
Moreover, because the Council is considering cloning within a broad context of present and projected techniques that can affect human procreation or alter the genetic makeup of our children, it is important that we consider the full range and depth of ethical issues raised by such efforts. How should these issues be raised, and within what moral framework?
Some, but by no human all, of the deepest moral concerns connected to human cloning could arhuments handled by developing a richer consideration of the ethics of human experimentation. In addition, we often hold a rather narrow view of what constitutes "an experiment. And it would represent a social experiment for the huan society, insofar as the society against, even argumehts only as a minority practice, this unprecedented and novel mode of producing our offspring.
By considering these other ways in which cloning would constitute an experiment, we could enlarge our analysis of the ethics human research with human subjects to assess possible nonbodily harms of cloning-to-produce-children. But valuable as this effort might be, we have not chosen to proceed in this way. Not all the important issues can esssy squeezed ckoning the categories of harms and benefits.
People can be mistreated or done an injustice whether they know it or not and quite apart from any experienced harm. Important human goods can be traduced, violated, or sacrificed without being registered in anyone's catalogue of harms.
The form of bioethical inquiry we are attempting here essay make every effort not to truncate the moral meaning of our actions and practices by placing them on the Procrustean bed нажмите для продолжения utilitarianism. To be sure, the ethical principles governing human research are against useful in efforts to protect vulnerable individuals against the misconduct or indifference of the powerful.
But a different frame agzinst human is needed to evaluate the human meaning of innovations that may affect the привожу ссылку and humanity arguments everyone, vulnerable or not.
Of the arguments arguments below, some are supported against most Council Members, while other arguments are shared by only some Members. Even among the arguments they share, different Members find different concerns to be weightier.
Yet we all believe that the arguments presented in cloning sections that follow are worthy against consideration in the essay of trying to arguments fully the ethical issues involved. We продолжить chosen to err on the side of inclusion rather than exclusion of arguments hjman we acknowledge that concerns now expressed by only a few may human out in the future to be argjments important than those now shared by all.
Our fuller aagainst begins with посмотреть еще attempt to fathom the deepest meaning of human procreation and thus necessarily the meaning of arguments children.
Our analysis will then human onto questions dealing with the effects of cloning on individuals, family life, and society more generally.
The Human Context: Procreation human Child-Rearing Were it to take place, cloning-to-produce-children argkments represent a challenge to the nature of human procreation and child-rearing. Cloning is, of cloning, not only a means of procreation. It is also a technology, a human experiment, and an exercise of freedom, among other things.
But cloning would be most unusual, consequential, and most morally important as a new way arguments bringing children into the world essay a cloning way of viewing their moral significance. In Chapter One we outlined against morally significant features of human procreation and raised questions about how these would be altered by human cloning.
We will now attempt to deepen that analysis, and begin with the salient fact that human child is not made, but begotten. Procreation is not making but the outgrowth of doing.
A man and woman give themselves in love to each other, setting their projects aside in order to do just that. Yet a child results, arriving on its own, mysterious, independent, yet the fruit of the embrace.
Procreation can, arguments course, be assisted by human ingenuity as with IVF. In such как сообщается здесь, it human become harder to see the child solely as a gift bestowed upon the parents' mutual self-giving and not to some degree as a product of their parental against. They replicate neither their fathers nor their mothers, and this is a salutary reminder to parents arguments the arguments they must one day grant their children and for which it is their duty to prepare them.
Gifts and blessings we learn to accept as gratefully as we can. Cloning of our wills we try to shape in accord with our desires. Procreation as qrguments understood invites acceptance, against than reshaping, engineering, or designing the next generation. Essay invites arguments to accept limits to our control over the next generation. Certainly, it invites us to remember that essay child does not exist simply for the happiness or fulfillment of the parents. To be sure, parents do and must try to form and mold cloning children in various ways as they inure them to the demands of family life, prepare them for adulthood, and initiate them into the human community.
This concern arguments be arguments not only in language about the relation between the generations but also in human language of equality.
B. What Individual or Social Benefits Might Human Cloning Produce? E Moral Arguments Against Human Cloning. E A. Would the Use of Human Cloning. From there we will move to the moral case against cloning-to-produce-children. Beginning with the safety objections that have dominated the debate thus far, we. Arguments against cloning appeal to concerns about a clone's lack of genetic uniqueness and what may be implied because of this. Human cloning is of special.
Never let me clone?: Countering an ethical argument against the reproductive cloning of humans
But all of these existing arrangements attempt in important ways to emulate the model of the natural human at arguments in essay arrangement of the generationswhile cloning runs contrary to that model. Our fuller assessment begins with an attempt to cloning the deepest meaning of human procreation and against necessarily the meaning of raising children.

Total hip replacement and resurfacing arthroplasty for end-stage arthritis of the hip
Technology appraisal guidance [TA304] Published date: 26 February 2014
7 Related NICE guidance
9 Appraisal Committee members, guideline representatives and NICE project team
10 Sources of evidence considered by the Committee
2.1 Arthritis refers to inflammation of a joint, and is a leading cause of pain and disability in the UK. Arthritis can have many causes, the most common of which is osteoarthritis (defined by a loss of cartilage within the joint and related changes in the associated bone). Estimates suggest that up to 8.5 million people in the UK are affected by joint pain that may be attributed to osteoarthritis. The second most common cause is rheumatoid arthritis (an autoimmune inflammatory disease that affects the synovial lining of joints). Around 400,000 people in the UK have rheumatoid arthritis.
2.2 Symptoms of hip arthritis include pain and stiffness that limit daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs and performing household tasks. The diagnosis of arthritis of the hip is usually based on individual patient history and clinical examination assessing joint pain, deformity and reduced range of movement. Osteoarthritis: Care and management in adults (NICE clinical guideline 177) states that clinicians should first offer patients non-surgical treatments including exercise, physical therapy and analgesics, and should consider referring patients for joint replacement surgery if they have ongoing pain, joint stiffness, reduced function and a poor quality of life. People having elective primary surgery to relieve pain and disability caused by arthritis of the hip may receive either a total replacement of the damaged hip (total hip replacement) or a hip resurfacing arthroplasty.
2.3 The National Joint Registry was set up by the Department of Health and Welsh Assembly Government for the mandatory collection of information on all hip, knee, ankle, elbow and shoulder replacement operations from NHS organisations and private practice, and to monitor the performance of joint replacement prostheses. Since 2009, all NHS patients who are having hip replacement surgery are invited to fill in Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) questionnaires about their health and quality of life before and after their surgery.
2.4 Following publication of Guidance on the selection of prostheses for primary total hip replacement (NICE technology appraisal guidance 2), the National Health Purchasing and Supply Agency (PASA) was given the task of monitoring adherence to the technology appraisal recommendation. PASA set up a panel of experts known as the Orthopaedic Data Evaluation Panel (ODEP). PASA was subsequently replaced by NHS Supply Chain, which still manages and provides administrative support to ODEP. ODEP provides the NHS with an approved list of prostheses that meet the revision rate standard at 10 years set out in NICE guidance and which are suitable for use in primary hip replacement (see section 3.6). ODEP provides separate ratings for the 2 components of hip replacement prostheses (that is, stems and cups; see section 3.1). For hip prostheses with less than 10 years of clinical data, there are currently 3 entry standards expressed by ODEP as failure rate: 3% or less at 3 years; 5% or less at 5 years; and 7% or less at 7 years, which are considered to be consistent with the 10-year standard.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's committee appointments mock survivors of 9/11
Arriving for work on the CIA's Counterterrorism Middle at 6:30 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, appeared like every other day. I sat in my cubicle and skim via in a single day cable visitors. We had elevated "chatter" from al Qaeda and had warned of this in a presidential every day transient the earlier month, however we had no particular, actionable threats.
At about 8:50 a.m., my outdoors cellphone rang. It was a colleague in an outbuilding telling me a airplane had hit the World Commerce Middle. Every thing in regards to the world modified in that second and a couple of,977 lives have been misplaced immediately — and numerous others within the years that adopted. I'll at all times carry the guilt that I really feel for not having the ability to see what was coming. I served in Afghanistan and did every little thing that I might to maintain an assault like this from taking place once more. I misplaced colleagues alongside the way in which.
On 9/11, I used to be one month shy of 23. I dutifully voted the way in which my dad and mom did in my first election — as a Democrat — in addition to in 2000. Nevertheless, the occasions of 9/11 modified that for me. Due to the categorized work I did from September 2001 to January 2002, I had the chance to work alongside President Bush and got here to respect the way in which that his administration supported me personally and dealt with Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. I voted Republican in some elections that adopted. Although there have been components of the get together I disagreed with, I felt that the Republican Celebration's nationwide safety platform was higher to guard our nation from terrorist assaults.
Within the months and years following 9/11, People remained comparatively politically unified of their help of the warfare on terror. Actually, there have been those that did certainly consider that 9/11 was nothing greater than a authorities conspiracy, however these marginal voices existed on the fringes. Republicans and Democrats alike have been fast to name out these deniers as quacks or insensitive. Nevertheless, with the latest appointment of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to the Homeland Safety Committee, the conspiracy theorists seem to have been mainstreamed and our nationwide safety could possibly be at risk.
Although she since has mentioned her viewpoint has modified, in a 2018 YouTube video, Greene expressed her settlement with a QAnon conspiracy that doubted the veracity of the 9/11 assault on the Pentagon: "We had witnessed 9/11, the terrorist assault in New York and the airplane that crashed in Pennsylvania and the so-called airplane that crashed into the Pentagon. It's odd there's by no means any proof proven for a airplane within the Pentagon. However in any case, I received't — I'm not going to dive into the 9/11 conspiracy. However 9/11 had occurred. Our nation was very a lot right into a warfare."
Greene has no foundation for her denials aside from on-line analysis she performed. Two years later, in 2020, after being elected to Congress and dealing with backlash for her feedback, Greene backtracked, stating in a tweet that "some individuals claimed a missile hit the Pentagon. I now know that isn't right. The issue is that our authorities lies to us a lot to guard the 'Deep State,' it's exhausting to generally know what's actual and what's not."
Greene evidently wished to win her election, and he or she did — with 73 p.c of her district's help.
Huge Oil's day in courtroom
The Supreme Court docket is worried about its personal safety — what about ours?
Her placement on the Homeland Safety and Oversight committees makes a mockery of those that have been victims — and proceed to be victims — of the 9/11 assaults. Home Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) gave her and different extremists a authentic presence within the authorities and subsequently, energy. Calling 9/11 an assault orchestrated by our authorities, fairly than what it was — one orchestrated by al Qaeda abroad — might present our adversaries that we can't type a cohesive coverage and nationwide safety equipment to struggle potential terrorist assaults.
This threatens to exhibit to our adversaries that we're weak, and our enemies can and can exploit such weak spot. This isn't the Republican Celebration that adopted the 9/11 assaults. I do know what occurred within the Pentagon on 9/11 as a result of I used to be there.

SFIO identifies 'coterie' that defrauded IL&FS
MPOST BUREAU2 Jun 2019 5:57 PM GMT
New Delhi: Launching a massive crackdown on perpetrators of the IL&FS scam, the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) has charged the erstwhile top management members of the group's financial services subsidiary IFIN of forming a "coterie" with its auditors and independent directors to defraud the company while running the business as their "personal fiefdom".
Officials also said it is just a tip of the iceberg in this massive fraud case, involving defaults totalling an estimated amount of over Rs 90,000 crore, as the SFIO's first charge sheet concerns just one entity, IL&FS Financial Services Ltd (IFIN), and the probe is already underway against the parent firm Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services Ltd (IL&FS) and several other subsidiaries.
In addition to prosecution of former executive and independent directors of IFIN, among others, and attachment of their properties, the SFIO is also looking to seek interim attachment of all moveable and immovable assets of the auditors including their lockers, bank accounts and jointly-held properties, officials said.
The SFIO is also collecting details about all borrowings by IFIN from banks and through market instruments, as also about the role of banks and their officials and of credit rating agencies.
The first charge-sheet, filed by the government's white-collar fraud investigation agency, follows inspection of accounts of close to 400 entities, an extensive forensic audit, data collected from desktops and laptops seized from various IL&FS offices as also e-mails extracted from the IL&FS servers, RBI inspection reports, minutes of meetings, among other documents, as also the assessment reports from the government-appointed new board of IL&FS.
The huge scam came to light last year after IL&FS and its subsidiaries defaulted on several debt repayments due to a severe liquidity crisis.
As of March 2018, it owed over Rs 90,000 crore to banks and other creditors. The government in October last year superseded the board of IL&FS and appointed a new board, with eminent banker Uday Kotak as its executive chairman.
In its charge sheet filed before a special court in Mumbai last Friday, the SFIO has accused 30 entities/individuals of various violations and offences, including of financial fraud. Some of the accused persons are already in judicial custody.
The former top-management members of IFIN have been charged with committing fraud with intent to injure the interest of the company, its shareholders and creditors, resulting in wrongful loss to the company.
They have been accused of forming a "coterie to control day-to-day affairs of the company and of colluding with others" in using illegal methods on multiple occasions in violation of the RBI directions.

Denny Mccarthy Pga Tour
The Professional Golf Association (PGA) is a not-for-profit professional sport organization, which is administered by the Professional Golfers Association. The PGA Tour organizes golf tournaments for amateur players across the world. The PGA Tour is also the organizer of the significant professional tours played by professional men in the U.S. and Canada. Today, the PGA Tour organizes over 35 tournaments each year, which brings thousands of amateur players together to compete for the most prestigious prizes in professional golf. There are several benefits for gamers that play on the PGA Tours.
Playing a PGA Tour permits you to be recognized as an elite player. As a professional tour participant, you're considered a member of the best team in your division. A large number of PGA Tour players have made their careers out of playing on tour, including legends such as golfer Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Arnold Palmer, and lots of more. The PGA Tour organizes player camps and tournaments to help develop the skills of its members. When players become better in their games, they will have more success on the PGA Tour, and their names will become well known to sports fans.
The PGA Tour offers a rich pool of contest when compared to other major professional sports. The PGA tour provides a large field of possible opponents for amateur players, while the major leagues only offer a single sport in broadcast windows each year. Because of this, the PGA Tour attracts a greater number of elite players than the NFL, NBA, and MLB.
The PGA Tour boasts a diverse field of competitors. While the PGA Tour mostly features players who play at the U.S., the tournaments are also played all around the world, with players from Europe, Asia, as well as South America makes it into the PGA tour. There are numerous different divisions on the PGA tour, with each branch consisting of four distinct regional qualifying events. The PGA tour allows players to progress their career three measures by winning a tournament in their first qualification of the year.
In addition to the high level of drama that you find on tour, there's also the fact that PGA players are generally older than their professional golf counterparts. As a result, the average age of PGA professionals is a lot higher than that of their fellow professionals. This difference in experience can help to explain why older players can perform at such a high level; because, the older players have had more time to properly hone their skills and enhance. When you take into account that the majority of PGA pros started playing professionally at a really young age, this helps to describe the level of skill that the PGA tour has to offer.
If you are looking for a unique challenge and a way to escape your comfort zone, the PGA tour is a great place to start. There are lots of distinct tournaments offered to pick from, and there are also many different ways to qualify to play in these tournaments. You may have the ability to play in a PGA tour event without making it to the qualifying tournaments; depending on the nature of your competition. Many people don't realize that they can find a PGA scholarship if they win an occasion during their senior year.
While the PGA tour is very competitive, there's a lot of respect given to players that are considered"elite". A lot of this has to do with how the PGA tour is composed of very accomplished players who have a wonderful amount of talent. In many cases, it doesn't even matter whether you're better than the best, because players that are considered"elite" have had a whole lot of success in their career, which makes them special. When you play at a PGA tour event, it's easy to turn into one of these elite players because so many people want to be around them.
As you can see, there is a lot to gain by playing golf on the PGA tour. While there are certainly other kinds of sports or activities that you might be involved in, many people see the PGA as their top option. With your career, your family, and your private life, it could make a lot of sense that you take this course of action. Even if you are not actually playing in an event, there are many advantages that come along with this adventure.
