Dennis Bernstein: Please give us your initial reaction. Bernie has a number of senators who say they believe in single-payer. Several presidential hopefuls are among those who jumped on the #BernieSanders #SinglePayer bandwagon. You think their playing early presidential politics with single-payer, or are they true believers? Do they support Sander’s vision?
Russell Mokhiber: That is what they are saying, and it is obviously because of the grassroots prairie fire that has been lit by single-payer activists over the years. It is truly out of our hands now.
Usually when you go to these meetings with your member of congress, the single-payer activists would be the only ones raising the issue. Now we are standing in line screaming at our congress people, demanding it, because the situation on the ground has become so bad.
Nine years ago, when the insurance industry-written #Obamacare was introduced, there were 23 people testifying. They refused to listen to any of us who wanted to put single-payer on the table. In fact, they had us arrested.
Six months ago, Bernie’s healthcare person told us that there wasn’t going to be a single-payer bill because they didn’t want to risk a Democratic Senate in 2018 and they thought that single-payer would hurt them. But once they saw the grassroots pressure, they totally flipped. Just a month ago, Bernie had in this bill co-pays and deductibles.
So this is all about the grassroots pressure.

Months after President Donald Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Paris climate accord, states and cities are offering their own forecast for reducing global warming: We got this.
Since Trump took office, there's been a downpour of legislation, amendments and resolutions aimed at curbing carbon emissions that are in line with key tenets of the Paris climate pact, the landmark global coalition meant to curb emissions that cause climate change.

Scientists track the brain-skull transition from dinosaurs to birds | #Geology #GeologyPage
It is the first time scientists have tracked the link between the brain’s development and the roofing bones of the skull. The findings appear in the Sept. 11 edition of the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution.

It Seems That THE EVOLUTIONARY CAUSE FOR THE AGING PROCESS Was Finally Revealed !!!
Scientists have identified genes belonging to a process called autophagy -- one of the cells most critical survival processes -- promote health and fitness in young worms but drive the process of aging later in life.
This finding also provide evidence that supports the hypothesis of antagonistic pleiotropy that George C. Williams formulated in 1953.

Let's be clear: This robot is not a "journalist." A true journalist takes information from multiple sources, synthesizes it, analyzes it, and then writes up a compelling narrative that provides unique insight into the story.
This bot, on the other hand, is merely adding words around easily obtained facts to provide a bit of context. And it's nothing new -- many organizations around the world have involved automated script-based services to produce content that is more pleasing for humans to consume. For example, many obituaries are aggregated automatically from a variety of public records and then assembled via an algorithm into something that resembles an actual human-written obit.
The takeaway, though, is clear -- it will become more and more challenging for humans to provide unique value through their work. If your job is mostly aggregating and/or disseminating information, and there's no actual information creation (or novel creativity) involved, you're likely to be automated out of your position in the near future.

Here's an article that explores the why people reject certain science:
"...where is this denial of science coming from? A big part of the problem, the researchers found, is that people associate scientific conclusions with political or social affiliations."
Politics, religion or any other well semi-defined ideological membrane around which people form group identities appears to act as a lens that enables and enhances and or distorts or obscures certain perceptions depending on how it is configured. It's not that people refuse to see other points of view. It's that they cannot see them through the ideological spectacles they happen to be wearing at the time.

As planned, the Cassini spacecraft impacted the upper atmosphere of Saturn on September 15, after a 13 year long exploration of the Saturnian System. With spacecraft thrusters firing until the end, its atmospheric entry followed an unprecedented series of 22 Grand Finale dives between Saturn and rings. Cassini's final signal took 83 minutes to reach planet Earth and the Deep Space Network antenna complex in Canberra Australia where loss of contact with the spacecraft was recorded at 11:55 UT. For the spacecraft, Saturn was bright and the Sun was overhead as it plowed into the gas giant planet's swirling cloud tops at about 70,000 miles (113,000 kilometers) per hour. But Cassini's final image shows the impact site hours earlier and still on the planet's night side, the cloud tops illuminated by ringlight, sunlight reflected from Saturn's rings.

Bright Spiral Galaxy M81

Explanation: One of the brightest galaxies in planet Earth's sky is similar in size to our Milky Way Galaxy: big, beautiful M81. This grand spiral galaxy can be found toward the northern constellation of the Great Bear(Ursa Major). This superbly detailed viewreveals M81's bright yellow nucleus, blue spiral arms, and sweeping cosmic dust lanes with a scale comparable to the Milky Way. Hinting at a disorderly past, a remarkable dust lane actually runs straight through the disk, to the left of the galactic center, contrary to M81's other prominentspiral features. The errant dust lane may be the lingering result of a close encounterbetween M81 and its smaller companion galaxy, M82. Scrutiny of variable stars inM81 has yielded one of the best determined distances for an external galaxy -- 11.8 million light-years.
