The Royal Charter Option

Initially I was concerned about the proposals to use a Royal Charter for the recognition of a press regulator. However, the proposal in detail puts some control on the changes to the charter (essentially so that contentious changes would not go through). Hence, it does seem to have merits as a process. It introduces a new constitutional process which is like statute, but with a super majority. I am not sure it is essential as the real problem has been the failure of the police to investigate and prosecute crimes, but it is better than statute.

err...duh....surely the bigger problem is suspected pigyobs committing crime as well as repeatedly breaking all the laws on a daily basis is th eproblem, rather than doing what they officially supposed to do i.e. the opposite?

personally i find it entirely irrelevant how much talcing powder they plant under the victims bed or how many people he has murdered....when suspected pigyobs break in, beat up and abduct....i can't even find any evidence that ANTONE has actually been arrested since mid 1990s...

arrest means admitting that you know who you are for a start, it also means admittedly that you're employer as police officer, browncoat or tarffic warden (?) it involves showing evidence of that like identification and it does at the very least involve accusing the vic of soemthing that is illegal.....when was the last time that actually happened?

certainly doesn't involving violent attacking of people and destruction to property...

bloody hell, you know things are desperaate when u have to wait for the Italians to show how to do it...

Trudiagnostic change PACE leaderboard algorithm - was in position 40, now position 44 - does it matter?

Trudiagnostic have changed the way they handle the Rejuvenation Olympics Leaderboard algorithm. The result of this initially was that I was globally no 40 and have now dropped to 44. Trudiagnostic are a US company that get samples of blood and they look at the DNA to see which parts of the DNA have methyl groups (CH3) attached to them. These modifications to DNA are called methylation markers. DunedinPACE is an algorithm which uses DNA methylation markers in white blood cells to work out how quickly or slowly someone is aging. I had three results on this. The odd thing about the results was that whilst my epigenetic age calculated from the same methylation markers was going down, the speed at which I was aging was going up. I find this somewhat counterintuitive. It is, however, I think relevant that in a global contest my approach on biochemistry which is quite different to many other people's does seem to keep up with others working in the same area. To that extent it...
