Abbott She closed her eyes again, obliterating the morning light that filtered into the room through the half drawn Venetian blinds which cast long shadows on the barren gray walls. Soon the stillness of the slumbering hospital would be . stirred into the living motions of this day. Sterile nurses in odorless starched white uniforms with "good morning, time to get up" smiles, would be disturbing her and pressing her with "how are you feeIing'1 questions to which they sought nor awaited an answer~ If only this morning she might rest in peace, foregoing the process of being lifted from her bed into life. She would .once again sit before the window observing those who passed by on their way to work or school. She was experiencing the transfor mation of autumn into winter as she watched the leaves one by one descending from their height to the earth. "Good morning, Mrs. Robbinson. Time to get up." The nurse crossed her room to the windows and opened the blinds . letting the full brightness of the day flood the room. From her bed she could see only the blue sky and the top of the oak tree whose leaves in summer nearly blinded her view of the outside woTld. -

A Critical Look at Catastrophe Risk Assessments
CERN-TH/2000-029 DAMTP-2000-105 hep-ph/0009204 A critical look at catastrophe risk assessments Adrian Kent Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge, Silver Street, Cambridge CB3 9EW, U.K. (September 15, 2000) Recent papers by Busza et al. (BJSW) and Dar et al. (DDH) argue that astrophysical data can be used to establish small bounds on the risk of a \killer strangelet" catastrophe scenario in forthcoming collider experiments. The case for the safety of the experiments set out by BJSW does not rely on these bounds, but on theoretical arguments, which BJSW find sufficiently compelling to firmly exclude any possibility of catastrophe. However, DDH and other commentators (initially including BJSW) have suggested that these empirical bounds alone do give sufficient reassurance. We note that this seems unsupportable when the bounds are expressed in terms of expected cost | a good measure, according to standard risk 8 analysis arguments. For example, DDH's main bound, pcatastrophe < 2 10− , implies only that the expectation value of the number of deaths is bounded by 120. × We thus reappraise the DDH and BJSW risk bounds by comparing risk policy in other areas. 15 We find that requiring a catastrophe risk of no higher than 10− per year is necessary to be consistent with established policy for risk optimisation from radiation≈ hazards, even if highly risk tolerant assumptions are made and no value is placed on the lives of future generations. A respectable case can be made for requiring a bound many orders of magnitude smaller. We conclude that the costs of small risks of catastrophe have been significantly underestimated in the physics literature, with obvious implications for future policy. -
The “Dark Side” of Food Stuff Proteomics: the CPLL-Marshals Investigate

Received: 4 February 2014; in revised form: 8 April 2014 / Accepted: 8 April 2014 / Published: 17 April 2014 Abstract: The present review deals with analysis of the proteome of animal and plant-derived food stuff, as well as of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. The survey is limited to those systems investigated with the help of combinatorial peptide ligand libraries, a most powerful technique allowing access to low- to very-low-abundance proteins, i.e., to those proteins that might characterize univocally a given biological system and, in the case of commercial food preparations, attest their genuineness or adulteration. Among animal foods the analysis of cow’s and donkey’s milk is reported, together with the proteomic composition of egg white and yolk, as well as of honey, considered as a hybrid between floral and animal origin. In terms of plant and fruits, a survey is offered of spinach, artichoke, banana, avocado, mango and lemon proteomics, considered as recalcitrant tissues in that small amounts of proteins are dispersed into a large body of plant polymers and metabolites. -

Relative Influence of Dietary Protein and Energy Contents on Lysine
British Journal of Nutrition, page 1 of 15 doi:10.1017/S0007114517003300 © The Authors 2017 Relative influence of dietary protein and energy contents on lysine requirements and voluntary feed intake of rainbow trout fry Mélusine Van Larebeke*, Guillaume Dockx, Yvan Larondelle and Xavier Rollin* Institut des Sciences de la Vie, Université catholique de Louvain, Place Croix du Sud 2/L7.05.08, 1348 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium (Submitted 7 January 2017 – Final revision received 29 October 2017 – Accepted 30 October 2017) Abstract The effect of dietary digestible protein (DP) and/or digestible energy (DE) levels on lysine (Lys) requirements, Lys utilisation efficiency and voluntary feed intake (VFI) were studied in rainbow trout fry when Lys was the first limiting indispensable amino acid or in excess in the diet. Two trials were conducted at 11·6°C with eighty-one experimental diets, containing 280 g DP/kg DM (low protein (LP), trial 1), 600 g DP/kg DM (high protein (HP), trial 1) or 440 g DP/kg DM (medium protein (MP), trial 2), 17 MJ DE/kg (low energy (LE)), 19·5 MJ DE/kg (medium energy (ME)) or 22 MJ DE/kg (high energy (HE)), and nine Lys levels from deeply deficient to large excess (2·3–36 g/kg DM). Each diet was given to apparent satiety to one group of fifty fry (initial body weight 0·85 g) for 24 (MP diets, trial 2) or 30 (LP and HP diets, trial 1) feeding days. Based on N gain data fitted with the broken-line model, the relative Lys requirement was significantly different with the dietary DP level, from 13·3–15·7to22·9–26·5 g/kg DM for LP and HP diets, respectively, but did not significantly change with the DE level for a same protein level. -

Efficient Responses to Catastrophic Risk Richard A. Posner* The Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004 has focused attention on a type of disaster to which policymakers pay too little attention-a disaster that has a very low or unknown probability of occurring but that if it does occur creates enormous losses. Great as the death toll, physical and emotional suffering of survivors, and property damage caused by the tsunami were, even greater losses could be inflicted by other disasters of low (but not negligible) or unknown probability. The asteroid that exploded above Siberia in 1908 with the force of a hydrogen bomb might have killed millions of people had it exploded above a major city. Yet that asteroid was only about two hundred feet in diameter, and a much larger one (among the thousands of dangerously large asteroids in orbits that intersect the earth's orbit) could strike the earth and cause the total extinction of the human race through a combination of shock waves, fire, tsunamis, and blockage of sunlight wherever it struck. -
