This systematic review finds that the literature overall suggests that the metabolizable energy of nuts is lower than that predicted by Atwater factors, something that may in part explain the lack of an effect of nut consumption on body weight reported in the literature.
- This systematic review with narrative synthesis aimed to examine the metabolizable energy of tree nuts and peanuts in vitro and in adult humans.
- Findings suggest that the metabolizable energy of the nut types investigated (almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, pistachios, walnuts, and peanuts) is lower than what would be expected following application of Atwater factors.

Quelle sera l'impact maximal de l'UE sur les températures mondiales en 2100 ?

Si vous écoutez les politiciens et médias, vous vous dites "houlà, ça doit être très élevé !"

Réponse: moins de 0,1°C !

Démonstration:
J'ai déjà beaucoup twitté récemment sur le sujet, désolé si je radote, mais ce thread-ci sera plus court.

L'UE a émis en 2021 2,79 Gt de CO2 - et 3,15 Gt "d'équivalent CO2" tous GES confondus en 2019, contre plus de 4 en 1990. ImageImage
(Par "équivalent CO2", on additionne le CO2 plus les autres gaz à effets de serre - CH4, N2O, et divers gaz trace- pondérés par leur "puissance d'effet de serre par rapport au CO2", et on obtient un "équivalent CO2" bien pratique pour les calculs).

What's up #tedfest peeps! We're off! Just left Cardiff for a long drive/ferry/another long drive/another ferry. Here's Nick who's doing the first leg. Get ready for some Divine Comedy tributing, Ireland! Image
So we made it to the ferry, stage one complete! Can relax for a few hours before hitting the road again. Looking forward to meeting up with the rest of @BadAmbassadors and having a @GuinnessIreland (not necessarily in that order) Image
Leg two complete (provided no docking disasters). Another hundred or so miles to Galway before meeting up with the band and downing a few well earned pints. I'm sure all the other @BadAmbassadors who flew will be fully cut already 🙂 Image

68.01/ Week sixty-eight, Oct. 30-Nov. 5, 2021, thread begins here.

Week 67 below
68.02/ This is right in my wheelhouse: scholarship laden pop-culture analysis. This is of #Dune

68.03/ #Dune is an incredibly flawed book that's nonetheless fascinating. Also, as a kid I thought the (pseudo) Arabic was Hebrew. e.g. "Kwisatz Haderach" which I eventually recognized from Midrash (from last week's parsha! God "shortened Eliezer's way"):

A GROUNDNUT SEED LODGED INSIDE THIS CHILD'S AIRWAY KILLED HER!

This powerful photo gives a stark warning to parents & caregivers over the dangers of #choking. The small child suffocated & died after choking on a #peanut!

A thread 🧵

{Share to who needs this!}
2\ #Peanuts & other nuts are the 4th leading cause of unintentional death in children.

Some kids, like 7-year-old Precise Tucker, have even #choked on #doritos chips & died in their mothers' arms while playing a prank!

nydailynews.com/#nt=mastheadna…
3\ Every #parent will be familiar with the time spent cutting & slicing their kid's food to ensure they can eat with no issues. No matter how hard you try, there's always a chance their wandering hands will pick up something they shouldn't & potentially put them in danger.⁣

My amazing assistant (most efficient assistant ever): I won't be in tomorrow
Me: No worries, hope all is well?
My assistant: Taking my dog to his doggie day care entrance exam
Me: An entrance exam for doggie day care??!!
Me 4 hours later: An entrance exam for doggie day care??!!
Update: Melvin passed the entrance exam!! Apparently he did so well (I guess that is the right sign) on the placement exam that he got put in w/ the big dogs. John thinks Melvin is way too small to be in with the big dogs... so not sure he will be using the doggie day care... Image
Email from my assistant last weekend: He has tenure now, so don’t ask him to do any tricks.
Attached to the email: the picture below of Melvin the dog in my office Image

Last appearance: Disputed. Either 15 June 1969, or 9 November 1975 (either way, he'd all but been forgotten)
