@guizzy ISTM that all volunteer-based organizational structures are subject to that attack to some degree. Eventually, policymakers are those who cared enough to stick around, working for free, through multiple layers of BS and for multiple years.

Wikipedia leaders could issue policies and make decisions that slow or temporarily reverse it, but that would eventually fail to stop a determined, persistent, organized effort.

@mangeurdenuage I know French is supposedly difficult to learn, but it is a related language to Spanish. She should be able to learn it once she is making an effort and in a situation where she can use it every day.

#Los_Angeles County oversight commission asks Sheriff Alex Villanueva to resign https://www.courthousenews.com/police-watchdog-group-demands-la-county-sheriff-resign/

!SoCal #LASD

I think I recall him trying to release the names of "problem deputies" and getting blocked at every turn. Perhaps he decided to get along with entrenched corrupt and abusive deputies instead of fighting and losing.

Is #SoCal unusual in having police gangs? I've read in the past about gangfights between LASD gangs and #LAPD gangs.

2. Vaccine trial
  
  A vaccine trial is a clinical trial that aims at establishing the safety and efficacy of a vaccine prior to it being licensed. Methodology A vaccine candidate drug is first identified through preclinical evaluations that could involve high throughput screening and selecting the proper antigen to invoke an immune response. Preclinical stage The preclinical stages are necessary to determine approximate dose ranges and proper drug formulations (i.e., tablet, injection etc…) This is also the stage in which the drug candidate may be first tested in laboratory animals prior to moving to the Phase I trials. Vaccines such as the oral polio vaccine have been first tested for adverse effects and immunogenicity in monkeys as well as non-human primates and lab mice.Recent scientific advances have helped to use transgenic animals as a part of vaccine preclinical protocol in hopes to more accurately determine drug reactions in humans. Understanding vaccine safety and the immunological response to the vaccine, such as toxicity, are necessary components of the preclinical stage...

5. The Vaccine Book
  
  A definitive and readable reference guide to the world of vaccines!The Vaccine Book provides concrete information on the current and future world of vaccines. It reveals the scientific opportunities and potential impact of vaccines, including economic and ethical challenges, problems encountered when producing vaccines, how clinical vaccine trials are designed, and how to introduce vaccines into widespread use. Although vaccines are now available for many diseases, there are still challenges ahead for major diseases such as AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. The Vaccine Book is designed to increase the understanding of vaccines for students, researchers, public health officials, and all others working to address such challenges. Topics unique to this book:* Ethics * Economics * Diseases that could be prevented* Clinical trial designs* Ideas about the future of vaccines* Challenges facing research scientists in the vaccine area* Burden of vaccine-preventable illness and the impact of vaccines* Scientific obstacles to be overcome by existing and new vaccines* Basic mechanisms of host immunity and pathogen interaction with host tissues* New approaches to future vaccines against challenging diseases* Real and perceived safety issues which dominate vaccine development and vaccination policies* Microbial pathogenesis as a basis for vaccine design* Planning vaccine trials* Introducing new vaccines into the healthcare system * Future challenges for vaccines and immunizations

  Clostridium perfringens
  
  Clostridium perfringens (formerly known as C. welchii, or Bacillus welchii) is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped, anaerobic, spore-forming pathogenic bacterium of the genus Clostridium. C. perfringens is ever-present in nature and can be found as a normal component of decaying vegetation, marine sediment, the intestinal tract of humans and other vertebrates, insects, and soil. It has the shortest reported generation time of any organism at 6.3 minutes in thioglycolate medium.C. perfringens is one of the most common causes of food poisoning in the United States, alongside norovirus, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Staphylococcus aureus. However, it can sometimes be ingested and cause no harm.Infections due to C. perfringens show evidence of tissue necrosis, bacteremia, emphysematous cholecystitis, and gas gangrene, also known as clostridial myonecrosis. The specific name perfringens is derived from the Latin per (meaning "through") and frango ("burst"), referring to the disruption of tissue that occurs during gas gangrene. The toxin involved in gas...
3. Clostridium botulinum
  
  Clostridium botulinum is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped, anaerobic, spore-forming, motile bacterium with the ability to produce the neurotoxin botulinum.The botulinum toxin can cause a severe flaccid paralytic disease in humans and other animals and is the most potent toxin known to humankind, natural or synthetic, with a lethal dose of 1.3–2.1 ng/kg in humans.C. botulinum is a diverse group of pathogenic bacteria initially grouped together by their ability to produce botulinum toxin and now known as four distinct groups, C. botulinum groups I–IV, as well as some strains of Clostridium butyricum and Clostridium baratii, are the bacteria responsible for producing botulinum toxin. C. botulinum is responsible for foodborne botulism (ingestion of preformed toxin), infant botulism (intestinal infection with toxin-forming C. botulinum), and wound botulism (infection of a wound with C. botulinum). C. botulinum produces heat-resistant endospores that are commonly found in soil and are able to survive under adverse conditions.C. botulinum is commonly associated...
4. Botulism
  
  Botulism is a rare and potentially fatal illness caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. The disease begins with weakness, blurred vision, feeling tired, and trouble speaking. This may then be followed by weakness of the arms, chest muscles, and legs. Vomiting, swelling of the abdomen, and diarrhea may also occur. The disease does not usually affect consciousness or cause a fever.Botulism can be spread in several ways. The bacterial spores which cause it are common in both soil and water. They produce the botulinum toxin when exposed to low oxygen levels and certain temperatures. Foodborne botulism happens when food containing the toxin is eaten. Infant botulism happens when the bacteria develops in the intestines and releases the toxin. This typically only occurs in children less than six months old, as protective mechanisms develop after that time. Wound botulism is found most often among those who inject street drugs. In this situation, spores enter a wound, and in the absence of oxygen, release the toxin. It is not passed directly between people. The diagnosis is confirmed by finding the toxin or bacteria in the person in question...

#Garden report:

The little red ants have decided to join in the farming game, only their "cows" ( aphids ) are suppressing the yields of my crops. I sprayed some more pesticide made of the oils of rosemary, garlic, and several other herbals in a 99% glycerin and water solution.

After the first few sprays, the aphids have all moved to the bottom of the leaves, so I have to lift the leaves and spray underneath. I'm hoping to knock out the infestation quickly, so there is a little more time of harvesting before the plants die for the Winter.

The three remaining kittens run and play in the garden, so in addition to not wanting to consume synthetic pesticide residues, I don't want the kittens to be exposed to them.

The caterpillars ( including tomato hornworms, the larvae of sphinx moths ) are less frequent, but this pesticide is also supposed to control many caterpillars, so I'm hoping not to have another recurrence.

I probably need to put up some sort of screening material at night for next year's crops, so that the moths cannot come lay eggs on or near my plants. https://nu.federati.net/attachment/275233

Today, the nearest hills ( 1-2 miles ) were visible with only a little haze. The midrange hills ( 10-15 miles ) were barely visible through the haze. I could not see the far foothills and mountains ( 20 miles and up ). I did not notice any ash falling today.

There is still a little smoky smell.

Meanwhile, there were mostly bluish skies and sunlight. Appears that most of the smoke is still blowing away from here.

And also ... on both extremes of the political spectrum (authoritarian marxist / communist and authoritarian fascist / nazi), there are usually "patriotic" brainwashing programs meant to "encourage" people to carry out the government's programs without any sort of morality filters or other reservations.

May as well join teach them to join Scientology and put rattlesnakes in the mailboxes of those who question the organization or its leaders.
