“This Breast Biopsy Phantom simulates the look and feel of a human breast. The ultrasonic appearance of the Model 429 is similar to soft tissue to allow the use of normal scanner control settings. Embedded in the phantom are 11 test objects on three different levels, allowing you to practice identification, aspiration and biopsy procedures on cysts, high density and low density lesions. There are three fluid-filled cysts, four high density lesions and four low density lesions. The materials in the solid lesions are colored to differentiate them from surrounding tissue. This provides the user with immediate feedback on the success of the core biopsy. With this variety and number of lesions, most users become proficient in ultrasound-guided needle biopsies in a single training session. The same eye and hand coordination skills required to perform ultrasound-guided biopsies of other body organs can be learned using this phantom.“

Every article talking about this study talks about how bosses can squeeze more labor out of workers, or how workers can squeeze more labor out of themselves, but the reality is that the human brain only has so much capacity to focus on unpleasant tasks, and people generally won’t work more than that without the threat of force (like in manual and service industry jobs where work is easily quantified and workers are being monitored all the time to make sure they don’t slack off; the threat of being fired and losing one’s ability to eat is the threat of force). People in hunter-gatherer societies do about that same amount of work.
The working day isn’t only about productivity, it’s about keeping you busy too, so you’ll have no time do to other things (like study, discover that you can fight back capitalism, organize, things like that).
A study released last month that reveals that french lesbians/ bi girls usually lean left and gay/bi men lean right
Le Monde also devoted an article to french gay Le Pen voters
The second article underlines how islamophobia is the major factor bringing gay men in far-right circles. This is all another repercussion of the french LGBT divide between the white gay men in Paris’ neighbourhood ‘Le Marais’ (and in other big cities), where liberalism made it easier for them to be visible in upper-middle class circles without feeling threatened, and other members of the community.
The french episode of Gaycation had already pointed out this divide last summer, with diverging accounts from the said white gay men of Le Marais and black and muslim gay men, lesbians and trans french people from Paris, who were then expressing their discontent with the lack of visibility and the need of mere recognition and solidarity within the french LGBT community.
