Layer after layer of fuckery.

Have we dug the NIH?

 

NIH ends $90-million alcohol trial after funding controversy

 

The nation’s premier medical research institution announced Friday it won’t conduct a landmark alcohol study meant to critically evaluate the benefits or drawbacks of long-term moderate drinking.

In a statement, the National Institutes of Health said that funding from alcohol companies undermined the objectivity of the research and said a number of employees involved in the trial design acted inappropriately.

Charges are leveled against a “small number of” employees from the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that they solicited gift funding and didn’t follow standard operating procedure to ensure “fair competition” for the money for the trial.

“NIH has strong policies that detail the standards of conduct for NIH employees, including prohibiting the solicitation of gifts and promoting fairness in grant competitions,” NIH Director Francis S. Collins, said in a statement.

“We take very seriously any violations of these standards.”

Called the Moderate Alcohol and Cardiovascular Risk Study (MACH), it was expected to be a gold standard in understanding the relationship between alcohol and heart health. The nearly $90-million clinical trial received the majority of its funding from alcohol companies Anheuser-Busch, Carlsberg, Diageo, Heineken and Pernod Ricard USA.

Project Gnome Atomic Explosion Site

 

Loving, New Mexico

 

Could an atomic bomb, exploded underground, melt an underground salt deposit? The Atomic Energy Commission believed that it could – and if it could, then the superhot salt could turn nearby water into steam that could then be piped to turbines to generate electricity! That was the idea anyway.

 

On December 10, 1961, a three-kiloton bomb was exploded only 1,200 feet below the surface. Steam and smoke poured from the hole – radioactive steam and smoke, making the experiment useless and rendering the site off-limits for days. The hole was eventually plugged and a plaque now marks the spot. It warns visitors against digging for potentially still-radioactive souvenirs. That's prudent, because while there are several atomic explosion sites in the U.S. that you can still visit, the Project Gnome site is the closest to a major metropolitan area – only 40 minutes' drive from downtown Carlsbad.
