Curiosity on Mars sits on rocks similar to those found in marshes in Mexico

Tuesday, October 30, 2012

Millions of years ago fire and water forged the gypsum rocks locked in at Cuatro Ci?negas, a Mexican valley similar to the Martian crater where NASA's Rover Curiosity roams. A team of researchers have now analysed the bacterial communities that have survived in these inhospitable springs since the beginning of life on Earth.

"Cuatro Ci?negas is extraordinarily similar to Mars. As well as the Gale crater where Curiosity is currently located on its exploration of the red planet, this landscape is the home to gypsum formed by fire beneath the seabed," as explained to SINC by Valeria Souza, evolutionary ecologist at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).

The researcher states that sulphur components from magma and minerals from the sea (carbonates and molecules with magnesium) are required to form gypsum. In the case of the Cuatro Ci?negas Basin, the magma under the seabed was very active. In fact, it allowed for the continent displacement during the Jurassic Period: "Here was where the supercontinent Pangea opened up some 200 million years ago, pushing the hemisphere north from the equator where it is now."

In the case of Mars, the scientists have not been able to confirm tectonic movement in its crust at any point, but they believe that a large meteorite crashed into its primitive sea. The fact that probing has detected gypsum in the Gale crater indicates that mineral-rich water was present and that sulphur was able to form due to the impact of the meteorite causing the crater.

It is no easy task to find a place on Earth similar to this Martian environment, except in Cuatro Ci?negas. For this reason astrobiologists toil in their work to understand how its bacterial communities work. "This oasis in the middle of the Chihuahua desert is a time machine for organisms that, together as a community, have transformed our blue planet yet have survived all extinctions. How they have managed to do this can be revealed by their genes," says Souza.

The team have analysed the 'metagenomes', the genome of the different bacterial communities that proliferate in these marshes by adapting parallel strategies to overcome survival challenges in a place with so little nutrients.

Green, red and blue springs

The results published in the journal 'Astrobiology' journal reflect the existence of two communities in different pits for example. One is 'green' and is formed by cyanobacteria and proteobacteria that have adapted to the lack of nitrogen. Another is 'red' and is made of Pseudomonas and other micro-organisms that live without hardly any phosphorous. There are also blue springs which are generally deeper and lacking in nutrients.

"Understanding the usage and exploitation strategies of phosphorous is necessary in understanding what could happen in extreme scenarios like on other planets where there is a possibly serious limitation to this and other nutrients," explains Luis David Alcaraz, Mexican researcher participating in the study from the Higher Public Health Research centre of Valencia, Spain.

This project has enjoyed the support of Mexico's Carlos Slim Foundation and the Technological Innovation Research Project Support Programme of UNAM. It has also received the support of the National Science Foundation (NSF) of the USA and NASA, which has been studying Cuatro Ci?negas for more than a decade.

The Cuatroci?negas Flora and Fauna Protection Area is a protected area but the scientists and conservation groups are worried that its water is being over exhausted. "The bacterial communities have survived all types of cataclysms here such as the extinction of the dinosaurs or the majority of marine creatures. But, the only thing they are not adapted for is the lack of water," warns Souza.

Boo! All Aware Now? - The Falcon's View

It's Halloween, which not only means costumes, parties, candy, and trick-or-treaters, but also the close of the annual Cybersecurity Awareness Month (among other things to be aware of). So... are you more aware today than you were on October 1st? :)

I find this notion of an awareness month for security to be somewhat odd... it's not like we have non-profit research groups trying to save lives... rather, we're trying to raise awareness for something that, quite frankly, is suffering from a generational and human evolutionary problem. Plain and simple, we're still in a transitional (pre-equilibrium) period... mid-flight in this "digital industrial revolution"... and until we reach some reasonable stasis point, humans simply won't all be able to keep up, let alone evolve.

At the same time, human risk factors represent one our biggest, most under-addressed exposures today, as highlighted by social engineering and spearphishing attacks, confusion around cloud computing and cloud security, and the exacerbating effects of BYOD/BYON/BYOA. Fundamentally, people are not making good quality risk decisions. Technologies (which are lagging well behind in the defensive categories, as I noted here) are not going to "solve" this problem anytime soon, if ever. This means that "awareness" needs to be amped up.

And here, then, is where I take issue with holding an awareness month. What we really need is an awareness year or decade. Moreover, we need aggressive awareness campaigns that invest heavily in educating business leaders, the legal industry, and... well... everyone about various "cyber" risks.

For business leaders, we need to clearly outline the place of operational risk management in their overall risk portfolio/dashboard (along with financial, hazard, strategic, and compliance risk). We need to educate them on IT's disproportionate influence on oprisk these days, and help them understand how to set a reasonable climate for making sound decisions, backed-up by a culture of accountability.

For legal advisors, we need to undertake aggressive efforts to ensure that they not only understand technologies at a high level, but that they understand the importance and necessity of various security-oriented terms on contracts and agreements. If your organization does not currently have a legal advisor who is demonstrably savvy/competent in infosec/cyber law, then it's time to supplement or hire for those skills. It may even be worthwhile to bring in a law student or send a staff lawyer back to school just to get these skills in-house, in a manner that brings with it the ability to nominally understand the IT component of op risk and how that translates to various legal agreements and situations.

Lastly, standard awareness training cannot be relied upon. Instead, it's time to up the ante. All personnel must be informed of their duty to make good risk decisions, given the tools to make good risk decisions, and held accountable for those decisions. Aggressive awareness training must be conducted to continually remind people of what good and bad decisions are, what common threats and vulnerabilities look like, and how their decisions directly impact the core functions of the business. This program must include ensuring that managers are not making arbitrary decisions to outsource without involving the right parties from legal, risk and compliance, and IT. Consequences must be clearly stated... and then enforced! Corporate cultures too often fall out of a culture of accountability ("freedom & responsibility" as Netflix terms it)... we need a reversal on this course if there's any hope of making progress.

So... perhaps you're not really much more aware today than you were on October 1st, but maybe this little post will give you a few ideas for how to solve that going forward. Maybe by this time next year you can start seeing the benefits of affected change. In the meantime, let's hope your monitoring, detection, and response capabilities are tuned-up and working well!

Happy Halloween!

Raw Talent

Raw Talent

I love art. I have always loved art. I?m good at art. I have always been good at art. Art came easily to me and I found out, at an early age, I had a knack for it. I could draw, paint, weave, sculpt, and design. I had what they call raw talent.

My name is Iron-head Bradley. They call me iron-head because I?m hardheaded, hard to understand, and hard to get along with, at times. But, I can create some of the most beautiful artwork you will ever see ? and do it with ease.

So, when I went online hoping to learn about designing web sites I had ?promoting-my-own-artwork? in the back of my mind. I was going to get it out there. I wanted to show off all this creativity everyone has been ooh-ing and ahh-ing over. I wanted my own online business and I was willing to do what it took.

Ok, so, you already know I am an artsy kind of guy. What you might not know is that I love ALL things art. If it is art related it is Iron-head Bradley related. I can?t get enough of art or of the art world. It is in the blood. You could say I?m artistically inclined.

Though I didn?t have a website of my own, I could find my way around the internet. I had enough savvy to find the information I was looking for and I had a good idea of what would or wouldn?t work for me. I wish I could say I spent days searching hundreds of sites before I found the ideal site but it popped up only after about 15 searches.

I knew it when I saw it. I knew the site I was looking at would teach me everything I needed to know about selling my artwork online. I had seen a lot of web based art sites and really hated the ones that just dealt with 1 area of art ? like just paintings and nothing else.

The broader minded art sites might include drawing or photography with the paintings. The best art web sites, like the ones I like, are real broad. They can tell you all about drawings, paintings, sculpture, popular art events, art news, art classes and a whole slew of other art topics.

The site I found for building my site is really the ideal. It will teach me how to build my website, get good traffic going to it, and even help me to sell a masterpiece or two. And, all this on a website that focuses on art-based and art related things.

Some web sites are just plain better than others.

When you see a website go down, the blame usually falls on hackers or, more often, software bugs. We don't often think of the Web as having a physical existence, but sure enough, Sandy has shown that nature can impact websites with greater force than any team of malicious code wizards can summon up.

(AP) ? Stripped of its bustle and mostly cut off from the world, New York was left wondering Tuesday when its particular way of life ? carried by subway, lit by skyline and powered by 24-hour deli ? would return.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the power company said it could be the weekend before the lights come on for hundreds of thousands of people plunged into darkness by what was once Hurricane Sandy.

Bloomberg said it could also be four or five days before the subway, which suffered the worst damage in its 108-year history, is running again. All 10 of the tunnels that carry New Yorkers under the East River were flooded.

In one bit of good news, officials announced that John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York and Newark International Airport in New Jersey will reopen at 7 a.m. Wednesday with limited service. New York's LaGuardia Airport remains closed.

Sandy killed 18 people in New York City, the mayor said. The dead included two who drowned in a home and one who was in bed when a tree fell on an apartment. A 23-year-old woman died after stepping into a puddle near a live electrical wire.

"This was a devastating storm, maybe the worst that we have ever experienced," Bloomberg said.

For the 8 million people who live here, the city was a different place one day after the storm.

In normal times, rituals bring a sense of order to the chaos of life in the nation's largest city: Stop at Starbucks on the morning walk with the dog, drop the kids off at P.S. 39, grab a bagel.

On Tuesday, those rituals were suspended, with little indication when they would come back. Schools were shut for a second day and were closed Wednesday, too.

Coffee shops, normally open as close as a block apart, were closed in some neighborhoods. New York found itself less caffeinated and curiously isolated from the world, although by afternoon it had begun to struggle back to life.

Some bridges into the city reopened at midday, but the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, connecting Brooklyn to Manhattan, and the Holland Tunnel, between New York and New Jersey, remained closed. And service on the three commuter railroads that run between the city and its suburbs was still suspended.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo said bus service would be restored at 5 p.m. EDT, on a limited schedule but free. He said he hoped there would be full service on Wednesday, also free.

The New York Stock Exchange was closed for a second day, the first time that has happened because of weather since the 19th century, but said it would reopen on Wednesday.

Swaths of the city were not so lucky. Consolidated Edison, the power company, said it would be four days before the last of the 337,000 customers in Manhattan and Brooklyn who lost power have electricity again.

For the Bronx, Queens, Staten Island and Westchester County, with 442,000 outages, it could take a week, Con Ed said. Floodwater led to explosions that disabled a power substation on Monday night, contributing to the outages.

New Yorkers were left without power to charge their iPods and Kindles and Nooks for the subway. Not that there was a subway. People clustered around electrical outlets at a Duane Reade drugstore to power up their phones.

At a small market called Hudson Gourmet, in Manhattan's Greenwich Village, cashiers made change by candlelight and shoppers used flashlights to scour the shelves.

Lee Leshen used the light from his phone to make his selections ? three boxes of linguine and a can of tomatoes. His power was out, but the gas in his stove worked, so he could cook. He said he almost never cooks but is learning.

John Tricoli, his wife, Christine, and their 6-year-old twins spent Monday night holed up in their 11th-floor apartment in one of several lower Manhattan office buildings that were converted to condos in the 2000s and have drawn young families. Once the power went off at 7 p.m., there was a major challenge ? no TV.

By candlelight, "we colored, we read, we played games ? old school," Christine Tricoli said as the family emerged to go on a walk on Tuesday that started with a trek down 11 flights of stairs.

"There was even talking," she said.

The city modified its taxi rules and encouraged drivers to pick up more than one passenger at a time, putting New Yorkers in the otherwise unthinkable position of having to share a yellow cab with a stranger.

Livery cabs and black sedans, normally allowed to pick up passengers only by arrangement, were allowed to stop for people hailing rides on the street.

The landscape of the city changed in a matter of hours.

A fire destroyed as many as 100 houses in a flooded beachfront neighborhood in Queens. Firefighters said the water was chest-high on the street and they had to use a boat to make rescues.

In Brooklyn, Faye Schwartz surveyed the damage in her Brooklyn neighborhood, where cars were strewn like leaves, planters were deposited in intersections and green Dumpsters were tossed on their sides.

"Oh, Jesus. Oh, no," she said.

The chief line of demarcation Tuesday ran through Manhattan's Chelsea section. Above 25th Street, delis did business and traffic lights worked. Below 25th Street, nothing.

For some New Yorkers, the aftermath of the storm stirred memories of the blackout of August 2003, when a cascading power failure in the Northeast left the city without power for parts of two days. This time, as then, there was no sign of looting or widespread crime. Nine people in all were arrested on charges they stole from a gas station, an electronics store and a clothing store in Queens.

But the 2003 blackout was a communal experience, with strangers lounging on stoops and bars blaring music into darkened neighborhoods. This time, people had to stay indoors and wait.

At a darkened luxury high-rise building in lower Manhattan, resident manager John Sarich was sending porters with flashlights up and down 47 flights of stairs to check on people who live there.

He said most people stayed put despite calls to evacuate. One pregnant woman started having contractions, and Sarich said that before the power went out, he nervously researched online how to deliver a baby.

"I said, 'Oh boy, I'm in trouble,'" Sarich said. The woman managed to find a cab to take her to a hospital.

Bloomberg told reporters that the storm deaths were tragic but said the city pulled through better than some people expected, considering the magnitude of the storm.

The mayor said: "We will get through the days ahead by doing what we always do in tough times ? by standing together, shoulder to shoulder, ready to help a neighbor, comfort a stranger and get the city we love back on its feet."

Statistics: The middle tells you nothing about the ... - Eco-Business

In commenting on the middle versus extremes, others have said ?Lies, damn lies, and statistics.? Two examples of statistics at their devilish work are provided by climate change, and economic growth. First, the Daily Mail and other pundits who want to belittle the credibility of climate science argue that the latest average global temperatures demonstrate that if climate is changing, it?s doing so very modestly, if at all, and that the models used are hopelessly inadequate. Hence, we should stop trying to shackle economic growth by imposing controls on carbon emissions, and get rid of subsidies on renewable energy.

The second case examines and questions our measures for economic growth and prosperity. For too long we have relied on taking the average GDP per person as a good proxy for a nation?s well-being and, while acknowledging the importance of distribution, this has usually been relegated to esoteric discussions of Gini coefficients (used to measure the inequality of income levels).

On climate change, it is puzzling that the overall global temperature has been flat-lining for the last decade. Climate scientists offer various reasons for why this might be so, such as the high level of aerosols in the atmosphere, and low levels of solar activity which both depress warming. Equally, the last few years have seen greater influence from the La Ni?a currents in the Pacific which bring lower temperatures. Yet, basic physics tells us that burning all the fossil fuel energy we do must generate a consequence. It looks increasingly likely that heat and energy from carbon emissions are being captured in the oceans, and taken down to lower levels where they are not so visible to measurement devices. But we should also remember that the planet Earth is a complex multi-layered system, and our models can only imperfectly describe how these layers of atmosphere, land and oceans interact.

Averages, however, tell only a small part of the picture today. Climate change has been affecting different parts of the planet in a very uneven fashion, and this looks likely to continue. In the short term, much of the northern hemisphere may actually gain from longer growing seasons, warmer winters and carbon fertilisation of crops. This may partly account for the stubbornness of countries like Canada to take any measures to curb greenhouse gases. By contrast, in many parts of the southern hemisphere, climate change has already brought much harsher more difficult conditions. In the western African Sahel region, rainfall has fallen by 30 per cent over the last 40 years, stressing farm and livestock systems that were already short of water. In the Horn of Africa, the fluctuations of drought and flood have been rendered yet more volatile. In Bangladesh, sea level rises and more intense storm surges have forced hundreds of thousands to leave their homes and land. If these extremes become more common, looking at the average doesn?t give the full picture and hides a very different, volatile reality for those living in the tropics.

Similarly, if measuring economic well-being through a simple analysis of GDP, the US is often portrayed as the most successful economy on earth, with lessons to offer others. But this hides the extreme inequality to be found within its borders. The October 13th issue of the Economist has brought to the fore evidence of the extraordinary skew in disposable incomes that has developed over the last 20 to 30 years in the country. They show that, including capital gains, the share of national incomes going to the top 1 per cent of Americans has doubled since 1980 (from 10 per cent ? 20 per cent to where it was roughly 100 years ago. Meanwhile, the top 0.1 per cent of Americans (representing just 16,000 families) have quadrupled their share of the national income, from 1 per cent to almost 5 per cent ? ?a bigger slice of the pie? than the super-rich received even 100 years ago.

While global inequality is decreasing, inequality within most countries ? such as India, China, South Africa, Canada and Britain ? is rising. The main exceptions can be found in Latin America, where countries like Brazil and Chile are bucking this trend.

In Britain and North America there are many reasons which help explain this big shift in distribution over this period, from the rise in the financial sector, the fall in education amongst lower income groups, cutbacks in the regulation of corporations, and the impacts of globalisation which have reduced wage rates and union bargaining power in richer nations.

Averages like a country?s overall GDP mask these extremes of inequality. As Chrystia Freeland argues in her New York Times opinion piece, inequality becomes a big problem for society as a whole when those at the top use the political system to perpetuate their control, and shut the door on innovation and creativity bubbling up from below. While the super-rich often vaunt the importance of free markets and the private sector, ?it is usually through acquiring preferential influence over government that they can further advance their interests and wealth; they ?channel the state?s scarce resources in their own direction?, and stop others feeding at the trough.

Anyone who cares about addressing climate change should care about restoring democratic process, and seek accountability to the average Joe. We need to find a means to break the grip of the 1 per cent (and the 0.1 per cent) on the political levers of power. If we don?t, we?ll see ever more extreme events ? with the rich getting ever richer and the climate system delivering harder, harsher conditions to those who?ve contributed least to global warming.

Humans have been endowed with remarkable intelligence, yet we?re often lazy of mind. An average gives you singular clarity, but can be misleading. ?Just as both torso and abdomen are equal parts of the human being, looking at the spread of data that lies behind a single figure can lead to seeing a more complex, full picture in the end ? warts and all.

Smoke-free laws led quickly to fewer hospitalizations

ScienceDaily (Oct. 29, 2012) ? Smoke-free legislation was associated with substantially fewer hospitalizations and deaths from heart and respiratory diseases, according to research in the American Heart Association journal Circulation.

Researchers reviewed 45 studies covering 33 smoke-free laws at the local and state levels around the United States and from countries as varied as Uruguay, New Zealand and Germany and found:

  • Comprehensive smoke-free laws were associated with a rapid 15 percent decrease in heart attack hospitalizations and 16 percent decrease in stroke hospitalizations.
  • Smoke-free laws were also rapidly followed by a 24 percent decrease in hospitalizations for respiratory diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
  • The most comprehensive laws -- those covering workplaces, restaurants and bars -- resulted in the highest health benefits.

"The public, health professionals and policy makers need to understand that including exemptions and loopholes in legislation -- such as exempting casinos -- condemns more people to end up in emergency rooms," said Stanton Glantz, Ph.D., senior study author and director of the Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education at the University of California, San Francisco. "These unnecessary hospitalizations are the real cost of failing to enact comprehensive smoke-free legislation."

The findings support the American Heart Association's position that smoke-free laws should be comprehensive and apply to all workplaces and public environments, including restaurants, bars and casinos. The analysis also is consistent with other studies that have found smoke-free laws were followed by significant decreases in acute heart attack and other cardiac-related hospital admissions.

"Stronger legislation means immediate reductions in secondhand smoke-related health problems as a byproduct of reductions in secondhand smoke exposure and increases in smoking cessation that accompany these laws," Glantz said. "Passage of these laws formalize and accelerate social change and the associated immediate health benefits."

Colleges postpone application deadlines

Superstorm Sandy is buying some high school seniors a few more days to finish their early-round college applications, with a number of selective colleges extending deadlines that were set to fall later this week.

Most students applying to college face deadlines in January or on a rolling cycle throughout the year, but many selective schools have "early decision," ''early action," or "priority" rounds whose Nov. 1 deadlines for applications and letters of recommendation fall on Thursday this year.

With the storm threatening widespread power outages and other disruptions along the East Coast, the National Association for College Admission Counseling called on colleges to extend deadlines if appropriate, and a number of schools were announcing via blog post, e-mail, or Twitter their plans to do so.

The University of Virginia and Duke University pushed their deadlines back from Thursday until Sunday; Dartmouth, Columbia, Cornell, Yale, Stanford and Boston University until Monday; the University of Pennsylvania until next Tuesday; and Brown and Tufts Universities said they would accept applications until next Wednesday, Nov. 7. The University of Maryland said the deadline would be extended, but didn't give a date and told applicants to check back to its website.

"We hope this helps to relieve some of the stress and anxiety you might be feeling as the storm approaches your region," Columbia said in a message on its website.

Others didn't grant blanket extensions but said they would be flexible for affected applicants. Washington & Lee University in Virginia asked applicants who need extra time to contact the admissions office by phone or email, and Princeton University said those needing to file late should attach a brief explanation to their applications. Harvard posted a message on its admissions website saying it would accept applications and support materials beyond the deadline, whether due to the hurricane or a personal challenge, asking only for a brief email explanation.

According NACAC survey data from last year, roughly 30 percent of public colleges and 60 percent of private ones offer either "early decision" or "early action" rounds in the fall. Generally, "early decision" means students commit to enrolling in that institution if accepted; early action is more flexible and gives students early notification if they're accepted but lets them wait to hear from other colleges in the spring before deciding where to enroll.

MARRIAGE COUNSELING WITH ONE SPOUSE ? Creating Healthy ...

You want marriage counseling, but your spouse refuses to take part. Many times it doesn?t mean he/she doesn?t care about your relationship. It may mean your spouse

  • doesn?t think counseling will work
  • has had bad experiences in the past with counseling
  • is uncomfortable or afraid to go for counseling.

Don?t despair! Internationally renowned marriage therapist Michele Weiner-Davis assures ?You can affect relationship change single-handedly.?

Marriage counseling with one person not only can work, but also often is more effective than having both spouses present. A counselor trained in helping relationships heal knows how to ask questions to bring out both his and her sides of the story and teach effective tools the spouse attending counseling can successfully use to mend hurting relationships.

So seek out a counselor trained to work successfully to help your relationship with one or both spouses present. Invite your spouse to attend counseling with you. If he/she says ?no,? stop yourself from forcing the issue and accept the answer gracefully. This alone can move your relationship in the right direction.

Learn more by watching this 5-minute video segment Save Your Marriage: It Takes One to Tango, by Weiner-Davis now.

Trans fats raise cholesterol, not blood sugar: study

Although much-criticized trans fats raise levels of ?bad? cholesterol, they don?t appear to have a lasting impact on blood sugar levels, according to a U.S. study.

Researchers, writing in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that both blood sugar and insulin, the hormone that keeps blood sugar levels in check, were similar regardless of how much trans fat people ate.

The link between trans fats and high cholesterol levels is widely accepted, but there has been a lack of clarity on the effect on blood sugar control, which is involved in diabetes.

?Although evidence from cohort studies has suggested that trans fatty acid (TFA) consumption may be associated with insulin resistance and diabetes, randomized placebo-controlled trials have yielded conflicting results,? wrote lead researcher Christos Mantzoros of Harvard Medical School in Boston.

Trans fats, technically known as trans fatty acids, are found in animal products and chemically processed vegetable oils. In response to studies linking high consumption of the substances to an increased risk of heart disease, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has required food makes to disclose trans fats on nutrition labels.

Some cities and states have banned them in restaurants or schools.

Montzoros and his colleagues pooled the results from seven experiments, including 208 people.

In five of the studies, the participants? blood sugar, insulin and cholesterol levels were monitored for several weeks under a diet of high trans fat consumption, and again for a few weeks when the trans fats were substituted for other fats, such as palm or soybean oil.

Two of the studies compared people who ate a diet that included trans fats to others who ate a diet without trans fats.

There were no changes in blood sugar or insulin levels during the times when people ate trans fats, compared to when they ate the other fats,? Mantzoros?s group reported.

However, the researchers found that during the trans fat-eating weeks, ?good? HDL cholesterol went down and ?bad? LDL cholesterol went up.

?They saw what you would expect to see? regarding cholesterol, which shows that the studies were well done, said Mark Pereira, an expert in public health and nutrition at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.

Pereira, who was not involved in the study, said it isn?t definitive proof that trans fats can?t influence blood sugar levels.

Although several weeks is enough time to see an effect on cholesterol, he said, a potential impact on metabolism might not show up until later.

?If you?re going to control weight and switch around fats in the diet, it might take a lot longer, because these fatty acids are being gradually incorporated over time into tissues in the body,? he added.

But even if trans fats do have an impact on blood sugar control, Pereira said, it?s becoming a moot point as the amount of trans fats people eat in the United States has diminished considerably.
