Neuron imaging captures unconventional receptor route that supports synaptic communication
Site: Phys.org
All cells, whether big or small, short or long, rely on proteins to function properly. In most cells, transporting these proteins is relatively simple. Neurons in the brain, however, face a significant logistical challenge because their axons, the thread-like structures that carry electrical impulses, can extend for meters. As a result, essential materials produced in the cell body must travel enormous distances to reach the ends of axon terminals.

California recycler explains what should, shouldn't go in blue bin Added: May 18, 2026
Can you recycle floss cases? Local execs share tips for what should â and shouldnât â go in blue bins
Site: San Francisco Chronicle
âWish-cyclingâ is not a good approach, as only certain kinds of plastics realistically get recycled â and it doesnât include things like toothbrushes or basketball hoops.
Executives with a South Bay waste management company have some tips to help residents improve when it comes to recycling. At a joint session of the Saratoga City Council this month, Rob Hilton, executive director of West Valley Recycles, noted that not all plastics that have numbers actually get recycled, even if the company technically accepts them in blue bins. Types 1 and 2 are âwhat gets consistently recycled,â he said, adding: âeverything else is a real question mark.â In general, clear, rigid plastics are usually a safe bet, said Andy Buck, Bay Area outreach manager for the company. Type 1 plastics include water bottles, and Type 2 include milk jugs. Flimsy Type 5 items like single-use surgical gloves or chip bags should go in the landfill bin, the executives said. Unlike other recyclers â including Recology, which serves San Francisco â West Valley Recycles accepts Type 4 plastic bags, provided that they are bagged in another bag to prevent them clogging machinery. West Valley Recycles serves the Santa Clara County communities of Campbell, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno and Saratoga. Rigid plastic items should go in the landfill if theyâre small enough to jam machinery. Anything less than 2 inches tall, Buck said, generally wonât make it through the recycling process. On the other end of the spectrum, bulky items like basketball hoops, laundry machines and computers should be picked up through the recyclerâs on-call collection service. Mixed-material items like toothbrushes, floss cases and razors should also go in the trash, along with textiles and multilayer plastics: âAll thatâs gonna be landfill,â Buck explained. Other items â like soiled napkins, paper towels, paper plates and greasy pizza boxes â are commonly recycled, but should actually go in the compost, where theyâll break down more easily, Buck said. Across the Bay Area, each jurisdiction has slightly different recycling guidelines, which can make it challenging for residents. But there are many commonalities â Recology, for example, also bans plastic bits and bobs like single-use utensils, straws and the pull-tabs on milk jugs. California has set loftier recycling goals than perhaps any other state in the country. But the confusion can lead to wishful recycling â or âwish-cyclingâ â where residents put items in their recycling or compost bins in the hopes that theyâll eventually be sorted into the correct stream. This kind of recycling â however well-intentioned â is technically finable in egregious cases. âFor the first time, we are now required to have citations and notice of violations processes and fines, ultimately, for customers who arenât recycling or composting appropriately,â Hilton said. âItâs a state law that weâve had to implement at the local level.â West Valley Recycles has been âvery successfulâ at avoiding enforcement, Hilton said: In the last four years, the authority hasnât written a single citation. Instead, itâs focused on educational efforts around recycling correctly. San Francisco has taken a similar approach, leaving âoops tagsâ on recycling bins contaminated with trash. In the city, repeat offenders in large buildings can face fines of up to $1,000 a day, according to the San Francisco Environment Department. In recent years, California has enacted a flurry of laws around its recycling goals. The state will require companies to remove âchasing arrowsâ symbols or other recycling claims from their packaging by October unless they meet certain recyclability criteria. Another recent ordinance gives plastic producers a 2032 deadline to ensure all their packaging is recyclable or compostable.

On September 21, 2003, NASA deliberately steered the Galileo spacecraft into Jupiter at 108,000 miles per hour to keep its plutonium-powered hull from ever reaching Europa. The mission's success had made its continued existence dangerous to the science that would come after it.
