The construal of reality is inseparable
from the construal of the semantic
system in which the reality is encoded.

Enhanced Cream production by Metabolic Engineering of Jersey Cows
It is possible that the low levels of production of cream by cows could be improved by altering the levels of enzymes in the central metabolism that influence the production of milk. To test this hypothesis, we identified and cloned the haythere gene, which codes for semi-skimmed milk in Jersey cows.

Effects of eating on the energetics of cyclists relevant for the performance of muscles are studied for the first time. Eating change(s) the expectation values of fibre length by about 0.1cm vs. values at the equilibrium geometry, which is expected to have a significant effect on oxygen absorption, charge separation, and muscle fibre regeneration.
