My phone number is now a state secret (in Jersey)

The linked story is a bit odd. The Jersey police on returning Senator Stuart Syvret his mobile phone had erased my phone number.

It is all a bit weird. There will be an emergency meeting of the Jersey Parliament on Tuesday.

I wonder, however, what the police had to benefit from by deleting my phone number.

It is worth listening to the interview on the link about this.

Once again, the Jersey establishment has shot itself in the foot and drawn more suspicious press attention to the corruption, there..

The island's longest serving and most popular elected official is alternately derided as paranoid or arrested like a terrorist, for "Shafting Jersey in the eyes of the world."

Let's hope tampering with the good senator's phone and erasing your number will be the straw which breaks Big Brother's back, so Jersey may someday enjoy real participatory democracy.

Once again, Jersey establishment have cut off their noses to spite their faces by behaving like some third world dictatorship.

Senator Stuart Syvret is their most popular and longest serving elected official, but he is treated as an enemy bent on destroying the island whenever he speaks out about Jersey's lack of governmental transparency.

Do they not see the irony in alternately denigrating the good senator as "paranoid" about Jersey's misuse of political power, just before arresting him in a manner more suited to an armed terrorist?

Surly they know Senator Syvret's blog is only becoming so popular internationally because the public is intrigued by such ridiculous, and highly suspicious methods in their attempts to silence him.

Tampering with his telephone and then erasing your phone number will only further justify to the world what he writes on that "vile blog."

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.
