An interesting answer about "surestart"

I asked where the SureStart centres would get the funding from after the government's 6 years funding stopped and the answer is:
"Centres would also be able to generate additional revenues by charging parents for some of their services such as childcare."

I have also heard today that I now have an office.

They have avoided the question on cuts in hospital beds.

I have done a graph following the Answer on oil production The government claim the UK will be a net importer of oil in 2010. The trend on a straightline basis from the answer is 2005. I have previously estimated 2007.

There are 16 universities that do degrees in culinary arts The challenge is where that relates to other cooking qualifications. My main concern is with the government encouraging people to spend money on a degree level qualification for a job that pays £15K (eg a Pastry Chef).

Interstingly I am getting the answers to my own written questions more efficiently from www.theyworkforyou.com than from parliament directly. Then again I am working in Birmingham at the moment.

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.
