My Turn: Why isn t food insecurity among governor s budget priorities?

My Turn: Why isn’t food insecurity among governor’s budget priorities? Published: 2/18/2021 6:01:32 AM Last week, Gov. Chris Sununu outlined his proposed budget for fiscal years 2022 and 2023. As I read the transcript, I kept waiting for him to mention the food and nutrition assistance programs that have been so vital to the hundreds of thousands of food-insecure Granite Staters who have weathered all that this pandemic could throw at them. Reaching the end of Sununu’s speech, I realized that he hadn’t even spoken the word “food,” let alone acknowledged the existence of chronic food insecurity in the state, and the thousands of volunteer hours that people have contributed to hunger prevention efforts this year.

Cooking Up Science with Miss America: DNA

Image: VPM Episode 8: DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the blueprint for all living things, but it is so small we can’t usually see it.  The role of DNA is to provide our cells information on building proteins; these proteins lead to our individual traits such as eye color, height, dimples, and so much more.  The structure of DNA is a double helix and we can model this structure at home.  This model is based on the work of Rosalind Franklin, a British Chemist who created an X-ray photograph that provided evidence of the double-helix structure of DNA molecules. We can also extract DNA from a living thing, such as a strawberry, at home.  The components of this DNA are so small that it does not look like our model; however, with technology scientists can both see the structure and manipulate the structure to change proteins in organisms.  The key concepts and terms explored in this episode include : DNA, nucleotides, genes, and genetically modified organisms (GMO s).
