FJC debate on multiple removals

This is a link a debate by the family justice council about cases where mothers have 10+ children removed from them in sequence. Often the response to a removal is the bereavement response of getting pregnant which means that the strategy is very damaging.

The cases I am familiar with are pure unadulterated corruption . I believe there are a small number of cases where there are multiple removals but they are in a minority. So is this another example of muddying the waters. I recall the minutes of a particular FJC meeting recorded in the archives. The recorded information obviously related directly to the Justice for Linda Lewis case. tt could have been no other and it is often on the basis of these 'facts' that policy is formed. Needless to say the information was incorrect.

Its the long genes that stop working

People who read my blog will be aware that I have for some time argued that most (if not all) diseases of aging are caused by cells not being able to produce enough of the right proteins. What happens is that certain genes stop functioning because of a metabolic imbalance. I was, however, mystified as to why it was always particular genes that stopped working. Recently, however, there have been three papers produced: Aging is associated with a systemic length-associated transcriptome imbalance Age- or lifestyle-induced accumulation of genotoxicity is associated with a generalized shutdown of long gene transcription and Gene Size Matters: An Analysis of Gene Length in the Human Genome From these it is obvious to see that the genes that stop working are the longer ones. To me it is therefore obvious that if there is a shortage of nuclear Acetyl-CoA then it would mean that the probability of longer Genes being transcribed would be reduced to a greater extent than shorter ones.
