Hard Mode Bingo: Gothic Edition Square #18 Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman (Genre Mashup with 3+ genres)

It doesn’t get much more Gothic than France in 1348. This book is so gothic I'm tempted to use it for my Gothic Fantasy square. I really want that to be one of the ultimates in the genre, you know?

At the same time, I wanted my Genre Mashup book to excel in every genre it smooshed together, and Between Two Fires certainly did that. As a historical, it was well-researched not just in its setting details but in its ability to convey the mindset of another place and time. As a horror, it did quietly creepy just as well as in-your-face brutality. And the vividness of the fantastical elements were on par with any high fantasy title, with character archetypes that would appeal to fans of grittier, sword and sorcery style fantasy.

Also, all of the content warnings. None of it felt tasteless or without purpose, but I’m thinking in particular of a scene involving a dead infant and the frequent threats of sexual assault. The horror is just a lot even when you’re prepared, and I’d hate for someone to go in unprepared.

In fact, here’s a brief but not comprehensive list of fairly neutral things that are creepy/scary now because of this book:

  1. Fish
  2. Hands
  3. Knocks at the door of the house down the street
  4. Broomsticks
  5. Jellyfish
  6. Hands again (“A f****** hand!”)

SUMMARY: And Lucifer said: “Let us rise against Him now in all our numbers, and pull the walls of heaven down…”

The year is 1348. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm—that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict.

Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon. There, she tells Thomas, she will fulfill her mission: to confront the evil that has devastated the earth, and to restore to this betrayed, murderous knight the nobility and hope of salvation he long abandoned.

*As hell unleashes its wrath, and as the true nature of the girl is revealed, Thomas will find himself

(most) of the non-MCU marvel villains VS MCU Heroes

The fight takes place in the aftermath of the battle of New York when the city is destroyed. Both of the teams have a week to prepare, plan, get to know each other, and strategize.

The version of the heroes is their most recent appearance (Besides Old cap) So no time stone for strange, no celestial powers for star lord, etc.

Also, I'm not adding Galactus from Rise of the Silver Surfer but do you think all of the heroes could beat that Galactus?

Who lives? Who dies? Which team wins?

Bistability in fatty-acid oxidation resulting from substrate inhibition (Pub Date: 2021-08-12)

https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1009259

Bistability in fatty-acid oxidation resulting from substrate inhibition

Abstract

In this study we demonstrated through analytic considerations and numerical studies that the mitochondrial fatty-acid β-oxidation can exhibit bistable-hysteresis behavior. In an experimentally validated computational model we identified a specific region in the parameter space in which two distinct stable and one unstable steady state could be attained with different fluxes. The two stable states were referred to as low-flux (disease) and high-flux (healthy) state. By a modular kinetic approach we traced the origin and causes of the bistability back to the distributive kinetics and the conservation of CoA, in particular in the last rounds of the β-oxidation. We then extended the model to investigate various interventions that may confer health benefits by activating the pathway, including (i) activation of the last enzyme MCKAT via its endogenous regulator p46-SHC protein, (ii) addition of a thioesterase (an acyl-CoA hydrolysing enzyme) as a safety valve, and (iii) concomitant activation of a number of upstream and downstream enzymes by short-chain fatty-acids (SCFA), metabolites that are produced from nutritional fibers in the gut. A high concentration of SCFAs, thioesterase activity, and inhibition of the p46Shc protein led to a disappearance of the bistability, leaving only the high-flux state. A better understanding of the switch behavior of the mitochondrial fatty-acid oxidation process between a low- and a high-flux state may lead to dietary and pharmacological intervention in the treatment or prevention of obesity and or non-alcoholic fatty-liver disease. Author summary: Obesity is a complex disease which is still poorly understood at the systemic level. Impaired capacity in fat oxidation may contribute to the development of obesity. In this manuscript using a detailed mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation computational model, we demonstrate that the oxidation of fat can exhibit bistability and hysteresis, implying that there is a risk that the pathway gets trapped in a stable state with low activity. We also identify the cause of bistability in the metabolic network and analyse which clinically relevant factors shift the pathway between the high-flux, healthy and low-flux, diseased state.

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Fatty acid oxidation participates in resistance to nutrient-depleted environments in the insect stages of Trypanosoma cruzi (Pub Date: 2021-04-05)

https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.ppat.1009495

Fatty acid oxidation participates in resistance to nutrient-depleted environments in the insect stages of Trypanosoma cruzi

Abstract

Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease, is a digenetic flagellated protist that infects mammals (including humans) and reduviid insect vectors. Therefore, T. cruzi must colonize different niches in order to complete its life cycle in both hosts. This fact determines the need of adaptations to face challenging environmental cues. The primary environmental challenge, particularly in the insect stages, is poor nutrient availability. In this regard, it is well known that T. cruzi has a flexible metabolism able to rapidly switch from carbohydrates (mainly glucose) to amino acids (mostly proline) consumption. Also established has been the capability of T. cruzi to use glucose and amino acids to support the differentiation process occurring in the insect, from replicative non-infective epimastigotes to non-replicative infective metacyclic trypomastigotes. However, little is known about the possibilities of using externally available and internally stored fatty acids as resources to survive in nutrient-poor environments, and to sustain metacyclogenesis. In this study, we revisit the metabolic fate of fatty acid breakdown in T. cruzi. Herein, we show that during parasite proliferation, the glucose concentration in the medium can regulate the fatty acid metabolism. At the stationary phase, the parasites fully oxidize fatty acids. [U-14C]-palmitate can be taken up from the medium, leading to CO2 production. Additionally, we show that electrons are fed directly to oxidative phosphorylation, and acetyl-CoA is supplied to the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, which can be used to feed anabolic pathways such as the de novo biosynthesis of fatty acids. Finally, we show as well that the inhibition of fatty acids mobilization into the mitochondrion diminishes the survival to severe starvation, and impairs metacyclogenesis. Author summary: Trypanosoma cruzi is a protist parasite with a life cycle involving two types of hosts, a vertebrate one (which includes humans, causing Chagas disease) and an invertebrate one (kissing bugs, which vectorize the infection among mammals). In both hosts, the parasite faces environmental challenges such as sudden changes in the metabolic composition of the medium in which they develop, sever

GW8's TWAT.

To drop from a 5k overall rank to just outside the top 100k in a singular gameweek is some feat. In fact, it’s only really doable at this stage of the season. Once the 21/22 campaign blossoms into the Venus flytrap that will eventually gobble us all, drops of this magnitude are rarer than a commanding defensive performance from Grant Hanley.

With this in mind, early-season TWATs must be savoured like the last suckable sweet on your long-haul flight. The impact of a terrible gameweek - the worst, indeed, of any manager within the top 10k - will seldom be as wince-worthy as these autumnal meltdowns. They serve as a much-needed reminder that yes; even those bad gameweeks could’ve been so, so much worse.

Before we begin, a big thanks to u/_SpecialistInFailure and his brilliant website for providing that all-important TWAT data.

Scoring just 27 points and hailing from Iraq, Gameweek 8’s TWAT (The Worst Active Team) is Ghaleb Mohamed’s confusingly named squad, Man blue.

On first assessment, it looks like Ghaleb wanted to name his FPL team “Man City” but couldn’t afford the necessary rights. Sort of like PES, or those mobile-only penalty shoot-out games that make you pay extra for posts and a goal net.

If his FPL leagues are to be trusted, however, Ghaleb is a Man United supporter. Perhaps he’s one of Iraq’s many smurf enthusiasts.

Here’s his team.

What will strike you first about Man blue is that, well, it ain’t half bad.

There are those TWATs who will ride their way to the top10k on a wave of Doucoure autosubs (because surely a player of Ziyech's quality should be in everyone’s starting XI) and Danny Welbeck triple captains (listen, this is an ex-England international we’re talking about). Their eventual demise has an air of inevitability about it, like the injury to your beating-the-price-change early transfer.

Man blue is not one of those sides. Ghaleb - an experienced (if not spectacular) FPL manager - has been patient, considered and, for the most part, successful so far. He was at 5.2k prior to Gameweek 8, after all.

That doesn’t mean his team is without its flaws. Eric Dier, a Man blue employee since Gameweek 3, might well consider himself fortunate to still be a part of the set-up. He’s scored just five points in his last five games, including a -1 last weekend.

The ever-disappointing Luke Shaw has also e

• Arizona improved to 4-0 against teams from the AFC in 2021 and 8-4 against AFC opponents under head coach Kliff Kingsbury.

Sunday’s game between the Cardinals and Texans was the first in NFL history to end in a score of 31-5.

###OFFENSE AND DEFENSE BOTH REMAIN CONSISTENT IN 2021

• Sunday’s win over the Texans continued a pattern for the Cardinals in 2021 – the offense scores 30+ points in a game and the defense allows fewer than 20. It was the sixth time Arizona has scored 30+ points in a game this season and the sixth time allowing 20 points or fewer. Both totals lead the NFL.

Through the first seven weeks, Arizona leads the NFL in scoring defense (16.29 ppg) and ranks fourth in scoring offense (32.14 ppg). The Cardinals and Bills are the only teams in the NFL that rank in the top five in both points scored/game and points allowed/game this season.

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

Enteral nutrition modulation with n-3 PUFAs directs microbiome and lipid metabolism in mice (Pub Date: 2021-03-25)

https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0248482

Enteral nutrition modulation with n-3 PUFAs directs microbiome and lipid metabolism in mice

Abstract

Nutritional support using exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) has been studied as primary therapy for the management of liver diseases, Crohn’s disease, and cancers. EEN can also increase the number of beneficial microbiotas in the gut, improve bile acid and lipid metabolism, and decrease the number of harmful dietary micro-particles, possibly by influencing disease occurrence and increasing immunity. This study investigated the effects of EEN-n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (3PUFAs) (EEN-3PUFAs) on the gut microbiome, intestinal barrier, and lipid or bile acid metabolism in mice. Metagenomic sequencing technology was used to analyze the effects of EEN-3PUFAs on the composition of gut microbiome signatures. The contents of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and bile acids in the feces and liver of the mice were assayed by gas chromatography and ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography/high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry, respectively. The levels of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and D-lactic acid in the blood were used to assess intestinal permeability. The results indicated that EEN-3PUFAs could improve the composition of gut microbiome signatures and increase the abundance of Barnesiella and Lactobacillus (genus), Porphyromonadaceae, and Bacteroidia (species), and Bacteroidetes (phylum) after EEN-3PUFAs initiation. In addition, EEN-3PUFAs induced the formation of SCFAs (mainly including acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid) and increased the intestinal wall compared to the control group. In conclusion, EEN-3PUFAs modulate the alterations in gut microbiome signatures, enhanced intestinal barrier, and regulated the fatty acid composition and lipid metabolism shifts and the putative mechanisms underlying these effects.
