Pythons need culinary PR not bounties

By FRED GRIMM
fgrimm@MiamiHerald.com
In the Philippines, they're rubbed with spices, stuffed with leaves from the palongpong vine and served as cinafa'y feclat.
Cinafa'y feclat not only packs more menu appeal than ''hot roasted python,'' it offers a culinary solution to the infestation of giant snakes threatening to overrun, or rather over-slither, South Florida.
And beyond. Apparently, there's no biological reason keeping Burmese pythons -- now copulating in the Everglades like prom dates -- from striking out for Disney World and other points north. The U.S. Geological Report concluded that ``roughly a third of the contiguous United States lies within the python's range.''



But I suspect it was the specter of 18-foot baby-gulping constrictors lurking in the pool at the foot of Splash Mountain that prompted state wildlife officials last week to propose paying a bounty for each Burmese python hunters extracted from the Glades. BARE CUPBOARDS
Unhappily, the state treasury is tapped out. Unless snake hunters can be persuaded to wade into the swamps for discount tickets to the Miss Tallahassee Beauty Pageant, a bounty won't staunch Florida's python population. (Now estimated at 150,000, though one wonders who the hell has been slogging around the Everglades counting snakes. We can't get an accurate count for our human immigrant population in South Florida, yet we've got a handle on the number of swamp water creepy crawlies?)
Well-meaning wildlife managers can't save us from the giant snakes that threaten wading birds, pets, toddlers and Korean SUVs. Chefs, however, can. The restaurant industry has shown it can simply rebrand an unappealing creature and send it the way of the dodo (a huge flightless bird devoured into extinction by human predators with hearty appetites).
Chefs rechristened a once-abundant South American fish with a snaggly grin apt to give children nightmares. Lately, the creature formerly known as Patagonian toothfish has been so overfished that it's now considered unseemly for high-minded diners to order Chilean sea bass.
A slimehead, as catch of the day, had limited allure. As orange roughy, it's worth $25.95 a filet. Disgusting little invertebrates that fishermen called (I swear) ''whore eggs'' now show up in sushi restaurants as ``spicy sea urchin.''
SHELL GAME
Dog fish, under the restaurant witness protection program, are marketed as ''rock salmon.'' Stumpknockers as ''spotted sun fish.'' Mud crabs, under the auspices of California cuisine, become yummy ``peekytoes.''
Sea turtles have been pushed to near extinction by misguided males in search of the turtles' mythical aphrodisiac properties. Surely then, a phallic creature that grows more than 20 feet long can be sold on South Beach as ``pan-seared Burmese Viagra.''
Passenger pigeons were once our most common native bird. Until we decided to eat them. By 1914, they were goners.
Pythons can't even fly. They'd be much easier to fry, broil, bake or sauté into gastric memories.
We'd still have to contend with that other monstrous reptile fast spreading across the Florida peninsula -- the Nile monitor. In the Philippines, roasted monitors appear on the menu as cinafa'y fanias.

Sztuka mięsa w sosie chrzanowym uniemożliwiła prace GROM. 29 grudnia żołnierze jednostki szybkiego reagowania zatruli się obiadem zaserwowanym im w wojskowej stołówce. Przez 24 godziny komandosi odczuwali dokuczliwe objawy niestrawności.

Komandosami zajęli się lekarze wojskowi, którzy zawiadomili Wojskową Inspekcję Sanitarną o wystąpieniu masowego zatrucia pokarmowego. Dochodzenie zostało przekazane do Wojskowego Ośrodka Medycyny Prewencyjnej w Modlinie.

Podejrzany posiłek dostarczony został do jednostki przez warszawską firmę Dussmann Group.

Curry in the hurry Turmeric Prevents Cancer

The next time you’re out having a bite to eat, you might want to consider foods made with curry, especially in light of a recent discovery that a molecule in turmeric, which gives curry its distinctive yellow color, has the ability to kill esophageal cancer cells. The findings, published in the recent edition of the British Journal of Cancer, may lead to the development of anti-cancer therapies.

Turmeric has long been promoted as a health-promoting spice because it contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. The reason is because of the presence of the compound curcumin, which is believed to reduce inflammation while also helping to decrease the risk of obesity, diabetes, and even certain cancers.

In the study in question, researchers treated esophageal cancer cells with curcumin and found that it not only killed the cancer cells within 24 hours, but also induced the cells to self-destruct. It is not completely clear how curcumin accomplishes this, but researchers believe that it initiates certain unexpected cellular pathways to induce cell death.

Normally, when a cell self destructs, a process referred to as apoptosis or programmed cell death, proteins known as caspases are switched on. They are also known as “executioner proteins” because of the role they play in removing unwanted cells. However, when they fail to do their job, aberrant cells (including cancer cells) can escape destruction and then go on to form tumor as well as contribute to autoimmune diseases.

In the presence of curcumin, however, the usual process of cell destruction was not observed. Researchers arrived at this conclusion because even when caspase inhibitors were added, the cells still underwent cell death, suggesting a novel cell-signaling pathway other than apoptosis.

Turmeric has been used to treat ailments for thousands of years, particularly in Indian Ayurvedic medicine. Modern research identified curcumin as one of the key factors, and subsequent research in animal models has supported its potential therapeutic qualities, but only recently has it been studied as a therapy for human diseases, including multiple myeloma, Alzheimer’s disease, colon cancer, psoriasis, and esophageal cancer. It has also been suggested that curcumin improves mental function, which includes dementia and depression.

Curcumin’s effectiveness as a potential anti-cancer agent is due to its ability to induce programmed cell death, or apoptosis, in tumor cells while having no toxic effect on normal, health cells.

Consumption of curcumin is not as common in United States as it is in African and Asian countries, where the spice turmeric is often used to flavor foods. In this country, where food tends to be more mildly flavored, turmeric is often associated with spicy dishes, including curries.

Furthermore, the findings in the current study should not be interpreted as an outright declaration to increase your turmeric consumption, since more work needs to be done. Consult an experienced dietician for more information. If you have questions or concerns about esophageal cancer, speak with your physician, or check out the website for the National Cancer Institute.

Arbeit macht frei

Wahrheit macht frei...
Niemiecki pisarz, etnolog i pastor - Lorenz Diefenbach bazując na parafrazie biblijnego powiedzenia "Prawda Was wyzwoli" (Ewangelia Świętego Jana 8,32 - Wahrheit macht frei) - zatytułował swoją, wydaną w 1972 książkę - Arbeit macht frei. Główny bohater jego powieści poprzez regularną pracę powraca na drogę cnoty.

Co ciekawe, zwrot ten został wykorzystany najpierw w latach 30 XX wieku - przez niemieckich nazistów - jako slogan w aktywnej walce z bezrobociem. Dopiero w 1940 r. dowództwo SS wydało rozkaz aby napis - Arbeit macht frei - zawisł nad bramami obozów koncentracyjnych, niosąc złowieszczy przekaz i stając się symbolem nieludzkiej tragedii milionów ofiar faszystów.
