malaria_genes: Malaria var DBLa HVR networks
Networks of recombinant antigen genes from the human malaria parasite P. falciparum. Each of the 9 networks shares the same set of vertices but has different edges, corresponding to the 9 highly variable regions (HVRs) in the DBLa domain of the var protein. Nodes are var genes, and two genes are connected if they share a substring whose length is statistically significant. Metadata includes two types of node labels, both based on sequence st…

I notice that news articles refer to "Disgraced" ex-congressman George Santos, but don't refer to "Disgraced" ex-president Donald Trump. This seems to me like a double standard by objective measures, given the similarities between them.

New report questions USDA support for certain climate “smart” practices
A new analysis of US Department of Agriculture (USDA) funding for “climate-smart” conservation practices argues that several are unlikely to actually have climate benefits and one may even increase harmful emissions, though government officials say the analysis is deeply flawed and based on “incorrect assumptions.” With nearly $20 billion from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to be used between 2023 and 2026, the USDA is investing more money than ever in combating greenhouse gas emiss…

Republican strategists expect most of the party’s primary voters to support Mr. Trump in the general election, pointing to exit polls that found that 4 in 10 of Ms. Haley’s voters in New Hampshire and South Carolina had backed Mr. Biden in 2020.
That data point, however, could also underscore Mr. Trump’s weaknesses.
In 2020, roughly 9 percent of Republicans said they had voted for someone other than Mr. Trump for president. That was about double the share of Democrats who said th…

Trump’s Crushing Primary Triumph Masked Quiet Weaknesses
Even though he easily defeated Nikki Haley, the primary results suggested that he still has long-term problems with suburban voters, moderates and independents.

Generalized Solution for Double-Porosity Flow through a Graded Excavation Damaged Zone
Prediction of flow to boreholes or excavations in fractured low-permeability rocks is important for resource extraction and disposal or sequestration activities. Analytical solutions for fluid pressure and flowrate, when available, are powerful, insightful, and efficient tools enabling parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification. A flexible porous media flow solution for arbitrary physical dimension is derived and extended to double porosity for converging radial flow when permeability …
