2021.5.9: relig/christian/Merry Mother's day!:

. my mother's name is Mary,

and she often writes a smiley face

in the M of her name.

. she gave out this picture of sunflowers,

so I turned it into a mother's day card for her.

is the risk from having African ancestry or being carb-intolerant? #health #covid19

is the risk from having African ancestry or being carb-intolerant?:

2021.2.4: 

. africs (those with some African ancestry)

are said to be more prone to severe covid-19: 

is it happening even to africs on a slow carb diet?

(a diet low in sugars and baked goods).

. we know that obese euros (whites)

are also prone to covid;

obesity comes from being carb intolerant,

ie, not adapting well to the 

chosen level of glycemic load.

. the problem with the Western diet

is that it has both a high glycemic load

and is high in fats and stress 

that cause insulin resistance.

. if africs are more prone to insulin resistance,

they need to compensate by using less carb's.

ipad.art set 4/erasing a layer

 21.2.1: proj.cyb/ipad.art set 4/erasing a layer:

. after a base layer, I filled a 2nd layer

and then activated both erase and linedraw.

. the color fill didn't include the paper's texture

but painting on it brought the texture back.

(brush/wash/damp) made it look like a water color.

. used (blend/sponge blender) 

to make the erasure lines less crisp.

. added some more erasure shaped with (marker pen round)

existence of new crystals suggests intelligent life is new or the morphic field is lossy or not universal

existence of new crystals suggests intelligent life is new

or the morphic field is lossy or not universal:

. Dr.Sheldrake found that 

https://amzn.to/3sKrdZw

new chemicals don't crystallize at first;

but after having time to practice crystallization,

the crystals eventually become quicker at it;

and this may be explained by the theory that

the universe has a mind of its own,

a mind that communicates with its chemicals

via morphic resonance or morphic fields

https://www.sheldrake.org/research/morphic-resonance/introduction

similar to morphogenetic fields.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphogenetic_field

. if the universe is eternal, as predicted by Dream Theory

http://amerdreamdocs.blogspot.com/2012/12/aquarian-steady-state-theorem.html

then life should have been here in the infinite past,

but Sheldrake shows evidence that 

intelligent life may be a rather recent invention

because there is evidence that

some of our recently invented crystals

have never been invented before;

and what is the possibility that there have been

millions of years of intelligence

but only recently has anyone done studies with

these particular crystals?

. perhaps the universe's memory can forget?

or rather than there being a mind for an entire universe,

there is a galactic or supercluster mind,

so that crystals made by intelligent life in a

different galaxy would not help crystals in

this galaxy to grow?

aapsonline.org worries more "democracy" is a path to socialized medicine

2021.3.2: news.pol/healthcare/

aapsonline.org worries more "democracy" is a path to socialized medicine:

summary:

H.R. 1: For the People Act 3 of 2021:

https://www.congress.gov/117/bills/hr1/BILLS-117hr1ih.pdf

"To expand Americans’ access to the ballot box, 

reduce the influence of big money in politics, 

strengthen ethics rules for public servants, 

and implement other anti-corruption measures

for the purpose of fortifying our democracy, ... ."

. we actually need this bill to protect democracy

by making it easier to vote;

but it is bound to help the Democrat.party

which is known for increasing socialized medicine

which is bad if it limits the ability of doctors

to decide what they consider good patient care

instead of letting politicians decide your care.

. this is why Republicans voted for abortion rights:

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/roe-versus-wade-decided-by-a-majority-republican-nominated-court.html

they actually voted to keep politicians from

taking choice from our doctors.

. I hope when this bill allows more Democrat politicians

that they help expand our access to healthcare

without tying the hands of doctors.

. if the usa has the most deaths from covid-19

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_death_rates_by_country#/media/File:COVID-19_Outbreak_World_Map_Total_Deaths_per_Capita.svg

it was because we didn't give doctors more power:

good doctors wanted to treat early with older

unpatented drugs such as Ivermectin 

and zinc with HCQ; and vitamin D;

[Am J Med. 2021 Jan]

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32771461/

whereas, the socialized medicine in the usa

https://www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/antiviral-therapy/

told doctors not to treat until hospitalization was needed,

and to use only new patented drugs and ventilators.

hrblock.com appearing to do free tax filing until I qualified for Saver's Credit

 2021.2.3: mis.cyb/net.hrblock.com/

hrblock.com pretending to do free tax filing until I qualified for Saver's Credit:

I tried HR free file from this link;

https://www.hrblock.com/online-tax-filing/free-online-tax-filing/

even after Fox news said H&R Block said

they were pulling out of the free e-file tax business.

[foxbusiness Jun 16, 2020]

https://www.foxbusiness.com/personal-finance/hr-block-irs-relationship-free-file

"Tax preparation company H&R Block 

has decided it will no longer participate

in an IRS sponsored program to provide

free filing options to low-income Americans."

. I was confused because H&R Block does indeed

still claim to provide some free service,

but their free offer didn't apply to me

because you can't have savers credit for free.

5-star/mounting a Sangean DT-180 pocket radio on a neckband:

. after my pocket radio died, I picked up the Sangean DT-180

https://amzn.to/36CmNeq

. this radio's only attachment is a hole that will anchor a tether;

I tied that to a neckband's clip loop;

and also hold it in place with rubber bands

that I got from bunches of broccoli.

a belt made from a paracord kit

2021.2.2: proj.gear/a belt made from a paracord kit:

I have a $16 WEREWOLVES Paracord Kit;

https://amzn.to/2NWUmBn

and, I used an entire 20-ft length of a paracord

to make a belt that fits slacks with small loops.

I used a knot near a buckle, 

and then for the loose end in the middle of belt,

I sewed it in place with carpet & button thread.
