kanzure | "Gram negative enteric bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli has been increasingly common acquired ESBL enzymes that make them resistant to penicillins and cephalosporins." | 11:02 |
kanzure | "They are often multiresistant. Beta-lactam-type carbapenems has hitherto been the last line broad-spectrum drugs, but when the bacteria had acquired enzymes, known as ESBL-Carba, which also breaks down carbapenems, remains registered no antibiotic group with safe effect." | 11:02 |
kanzure | "In Sweden, ESBL-Carba still unusual. So far , 37 cases identified, almost exclusively asymptomatic cases related to healthcare abroad (Figure 1). This means that we still have no safe domestic spread of infection and that there is still opportunity to prevent this." | 11:03 |
kanzure | "Several reports describe deaths after severe infection with ESBL-Carba. In Paris, hit seven patients in a hospital, despite treatment died five. In Istanbul killed ten of fifteen patients. Five newly transplanted patients died in Essen, Germany. In Greece and Italy are between 15 and 50 percent of all Klebsiella pneumoniae from blood cultures resistant to carbapenems. Greece and India dominate the country of infection in the Swedish case." | 11:03 |

epitron | archels: i just read that microDNA article... | 11:35 |
epitron | wtf is this: "This result suggests that the DNA found in tissue cells may exhibit more variation than previously thought, and the implication of this is that sequencing of the DNA in blood cells (which are the cells usually used for sequencing) may give misleading results if microdeletions have occurred in the DNA of other tissues but not in blood cells." | 11:36 |
epitron | we only sequence blood cells?? | 11:36 |
epitron | how are blood cells the most representative cells in the body? :) | 11:37 |
epitron | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haematopoiesis | 11:38 |
epitron | look at this | 11:38 |
epitron | blood cells are weird, in that they're very special purpose | 11:39 |
kanzure | i'm p. sure we sequence all sorts of cells.. all the diybio stuff is cheek swabs | 11:41 |
epitron | aren't cheek swabs only really good for microarrays, because you get so much bateria in there too? | 11:42 |
epitron | or can you separate the skin cells by centrifuge? | 11:42 |
kanzure | you can separate dna by molecular weight and prolly centrifugation | 11:44 |
epitron | that still seems pretty messy though, for shotgun sequencing | 11:44 |
epitron | you won't get any of these circularDNAs from that method either | 11:44 |
kanzure | what are you trying to do? | 11:44 |
epitron | well, i'm not trying to do it, but i think science's goal is to get a representative sample of the population's DNA | 11:45 |
archels | I'm wondering if those circular DNA strands are pathological. | 11:46 |
epitron | didn't they discover recently that neurons strip out a bunch of their DNA to optimize the cell? | 11:46 |
epitron | like, after neurogenesis from stem cells | 11:47 |
epitron | i wouldn't be surprised if blood cells did the same thing | 11:50 |
epitron | since they don't really do much besides float around a while, then get broken down | 11:50 |
epitron | :) | 11:50 |
epitron | and the more real-estate you've got in a blood cell, the more oxygen-holding molecules you can cram in there | 11:54 |
ParahSailin | on sequencing blood cells: who knows, maybe they mean b cells immortalized by ebv | 12:04 |
ParahSailin | those sorts of cell lines are common in cell banks | 12:04 |
ParahSailin | because very easy to collect and then transform | 12:04 |

kanzure | but in reality ads don't really pay out that much | 22:15 |
lichen | yep | 22:15 |
kanzure | because advertising doesn't work | 22:15 |
kanzure | unless you're building brand awareness | 22:15 |
lichen | and when all else fails, lobby your way into money | 22:15 |
lichen | if people dont want to pay you, just sue them untilt hey have to | 22:16 |
kanzure | no that doesn't work either | 22:16 |
lichen | im aware | 22:16 |
lichen | sarcasm | 22:16 |
kanzure | i'm a little surprised that people think ads are a viable solution | 22:16 |
lichen | well as long as corpos keep feeding them money for that | 22:17 |
lichen | it is | 22:17 |
lichen | mostly just blame corps for putting so much of their operating budget into advertising | 22:17 |
kanzure | the reason ad agencies used to make so much money was because nobody could measure their performance | 22:17 |
kanzure | $20mil or $50mil to an ad agency is very commonly not measured | 22:17 |
lichen | ah | 22:17 |
kanzure | "oh look! we advertised during a tv show with 4 million viewers (maybe)" | 22:18 |
kanzure | except you charged $3mil to do that ad, and only 100 people want to buy it | 22:18 |
* katsmeow-afk points to a case where $1500 in "buy one 2nd is half off (if you bring in this coupon))" got zero results,, so in that case advertising was worthless | 22:18 | |
strangewarp | kanzure: I dunno, the game had been running since the 1990s. But whatever [late reply; was doing things] | 22:18 |
kanzure | strangewarp: yeh these orgs have been around for a while | 22:19 |
kanzure | i think 'friends of earth' or that one about farmers has been around for decades now | 22:19 |
katsmeow-afk | Mother Earth News | 22:19 |
strangewarp | Oh, hmm. Might have been the original inspiration, then.. | 22:19 |
katsmeow-afk | there was another that began alongside of it that got big too | 22:20 |
katsmeow-afk | FOE was into ecoactivism/terrorism, MEN wasn't | 22:20 |
lichen | lol, MEN | 22:20 |
katsmeow-afk | iirc | 22:20 |
lichen | pretty bad acronym for that | 22:20 |
katsmeow-afk | it's after midnite, by brain is off | 22:21 |
katsmeow-afk | yeas | 22:21 |
katsmeow-afk | go into store, ask for MEN | 22:21 |
strangewarp | Get entirely the wrong magazine :p | 22:22 |
lichen | lol | 22:22 |
Steel2 | Hmmm. | 22:27 |
Steel2 | Yashgaroth, you around? | 22:27 |
Yashgaroth | ! | 22:27 |
Steel2 | Should I try to make an H+ house in north county when my dad moves back east and we're left with an empty 3600 square foot house in vista? | 22:28 |
Steel2 | :V | 22:28 |
Yashgaroth | how's the commute | 22:28 |
Steel2 | eh | 22:29 |
Steel2 | 30 mins to LJ | 22:29 |
Steel2 | probably | 22:29 |
katsmeow-afk | La Jolla? | 22:30 |
Yashgaroth | yes | 22:30 |
Yashgaroth | I can stop by on weekends but I ain't living there, it's further than carlsbad | 22:30 |
Steel2 | yeah, it's 37 miles | 22:31 |
Steel2 | I won't be down there but my mom might be. Maybe just throw get togethers when I'm in state | 22:31 |
Yashgaroth | sure then | 22:32 |
Steel2 | or drive up to LA | 22:32 |
Yashgaroth | something particular in LA? | 22:44 |
Steel2 | some more buddies, better bars | 22:44 |
Steel2 | it depends what we can find that's central to everyone | 22:44 |
lichen | heh, h+ house? | 22:45 |
kanzure | can you dorks do me a huge favor? go do a google query and count the number of seconds for the page to load | 22:45 |
lichen | google's gotten pretty obnoxious lately | 22:45 |
kanzure | also paste the number that google claims it took (for me it's roughly 0.3 seconds on average) | 22:45 |
Yashgaroth | 0.11 seconds | 22:45 |
lichen | what search | 22:45 |
lichen | pick a term | 22:45 |
katsmeow-afk | so use duckduckgo | 22:46 |
lichen | varying from .1-.2 | 22:46 |
lichen | yeah, thats what i do already | 22:46 |
lichen | heh | 22:46 |
katsmeow-afk | google is doing tracking something fiercenow | 22:46 |
Steel2 | I really don't like new google | 22:51 |
Steel2 | *the browser | 22:52 |
Steel2 | err | 22:52 |
Steel2 | search engine | 22:52 |
Steel2 | herp | 22:52 |

kanzure | Yashgaroth: yes but how many seconds did you count | 22:56 |
Yashgaroth | half of one | 22:56 |
kanzure | it looks like google+ is the culprit | 22:57 |
kanzure | without cookies or being logged in the load times are more sane/reasonable | 22:57 |
kanzure | i wonder if the search page load time increases geometrically with the number of connections i have in google+ | 22:57 |

katsmeow-afk | i would rather not google picked search results based on my previous "viewing habits", and instead gave me the best search results that match the terms i supply | 22:59 |
lichen | yeah | 23:00 |
katsmeow-afk | when i search for "spoke" (past tense of speak) today, and search for "spoke" (wheel component) tomorrow, i do not want that taken into consideration in searching tomorrow | 23:00 |
lichen | this is why i block all of google's shit | 23:00 |
lichen | they do some things that in some lights sound like they could be a good idea | 23:00 |
lichen | but in practice are terrribleeee | 23:01 |
