HP Sauce - spot the difference


It is naughty to continue to market HP Sauce with the Houses of Parliament when it is now no longer made in the UK, but in the Netherlands.

I have written to various people about this and we will see what happens.

How is it naughty? It has never been bottled in Westminster. If it had a picture of the Birmingham Selfridges on it, you may have a point, but its only connection to Parliament is that it was served there.

It isn't as if Birmingham didn't nick it off Nottingham either. You reap what you sow.

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.
