¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You Have Feelings, Conflicts and Sense of Lost So Why Not Blockage.
“Everyone is afraid of something. We fear things because we value them. We fear losing people because we love them. We fear dying because we value being alive. Don’t wish you didn’t fear anything. All that would mean is that you didn’t feel anything.” ― Cassandra Clare
Why The Chakras Are Important For Healing? Use your chakra energy system with the Law Of Attraction to create a life of abundance The chakras are part of an ancient belief system that recognizes the power of life-force energy that flows throughout the body. If you feel “off” but can’t pinpoint why, perhaps your chakras are out of balance. Any blockage in the seven chakras can cause physical and emotional manifestations across the body. However, you have the personal power to heal yourself from within by clearing your chakra energy centers and keeping them balanced and vibrating with full life-force energy. Let’s take a closer look at the concept of chakra healing and how it can positively impact your physical wellness, emotional stability, and spiritual potential.
What Is Chakra Healing? Chakra healing is a method of energy awareness and active healing, which restores vitality to the physical body. Through chakra healing, someone who is feeling weak, depressed, angry, tired, and limited by physical ailments can take a positive step to re-energize and heal themselves.
Properties of Balanced Chakras To imagine someone with balanced chakras, picture a person with body-wide energy flow who moves with ease through their world. They seem to naturally smile and shine from the inside out, and they speak and make decisions with confidence. Nothing holds them back. This person has no chakra blockages or closed-off areas. No single chakra is more or less open than another, no chakra is spinning faster or slower than another or more or less active because they are all humming along in perfect harmony. In this balanced state, each of the chakras remains open to the degree needed to support personal well-being. As a person, you will not feel either too wide open or clamped down too tight. Instead, you experience the joy of feeling positive, healthy, calm, and ready to handle anything the world throws at you.
Manifestations of Balanced and Imbalanced Chakras in the Body Now let’s look at the difference between a balanced and imbalanced state of the chakras and how this manifests across the body. First, we’ll examine the state of chakra balance, then we’ll compare it to the state of imbalance.
Balanced Chakras A body with balanced chakras feels solid and stable, grounded to the earth through the Root Chakra, or First Chakra, which is located at the base of the spine. There is a feeling of security and ease with yourself, and you are in touch with your own body and feelings. You are confident in your own sexuality and creativity. This feeling comes from the Second Chakra, or Sacral Chakra, which is intimately connected to sexual feelings. When it is unblocked and in balance, you are easily able to express your wants and desires without going too far and simply commanding others. In this state, you are not easily overpowered by your own emotions and have a sense of free-flowing control over your life. This comes from the Third Chakra, thereby, the Manipura Chakra is responsible for ‘pearls of wisdom’, well being, clarity and common sense in every individual which is the foundation of confidence and gut feelings. You also have an open Heart Chakra, or Fourth Chakra, which gives you a loving and compassionate approach to life. With chakras in balance, your Heart Chakra helps you have deeply satisfying, healthy and loving relationships. You also feel connected to animals and natural events. Through your Fifth Chakra, which is the Throat Chakra, you are able to fully express yourself and speak your truth to others without fear. When others speak, you can easily listen and comprehend. This leads to an overall demeanor of easygoing sharing and flexible back-and-forth creative expression. The Third Eye Chakra, the Sixth Chakra, provides insight and intuition that infuses your life with wisdom. When a question arises, you use your intellect to make smart decisions with a higher purpose in mind. Through your Seventh Chakra, which is the Crown Chakra right at the top of the head, you form a deep-rooted personal connection with the Divine. With all chakras in balance and an open ~ you are open to the most mysterious and energizing secrets of the universe.
Imbalanced Chakras Now let’s explore what happens when the chakras are out of balance. Imbalances come in many forms but are all related to a lack or overabundance of energy: overactivity, underactivity, disconnection, overstimulation, absence or even extreme dominance that shakes up your life. An overactive Root Chakra causes anxiety and will leave you feeling jittery in normal daily situations. It’s like having someone shouting, “Watch out!” even when there’s nothing to fear. On the other hand, if your Root Chakra is underactive, you’ll feel unable to focus. For the Sacral Chakra, an underactive state creates a lack of sexual awareness and an inability to feel true pleasure in creative expressions. But if this chakra is overstimulated, you may exhibit inappropriate sexual behavior and feel insatiable in your pursuit of worldly pleasures. An overactive Solar Plexus Chakra affects your temper and makes you quick to anger and make biting comments to others. But an underactive Solar Plexus Chakra can be just as destructive because it leaves you needy and codependent on others for your own identity. Beware the imbalanced Heart Chakra because it can affect everything from your interpersonal relationships to your cardiovascular health. Overstimulated, it can allow you to put others’ needs far ahead of your own and do foolish things in the name of love. Under stimulated, it can make you feel lonely, depressed and unable to love yourself. A Throat Chakra with too much stimulation turns you into a braggy, bossy person who interrupts others. But if it is under stimulated, you’ll find it difficult to express yourself and may feel tongue-tied when it’s time to share your opinions and emotions with others. An overactive Third Eye Chakra leads to dangerous assumptions and can even cause an obsession with the paranormal or psychic predictions. However, an underactive Third Eye Chakra takes you into territory that is also dangerous because it leads to foolish choices due to a lack of access to your own inner wisdom.
In the chakra system, the Crown Chakra can never be too overstimulated because it is the seat of universal energy and is by its nature infinite. An underactive Crown Chakra is simply the state of being human and always seeking a deeper connection with the Divine.
Heavier Upper Chakras Sometimes, there is an imbalance where the upper chakras are heavier, or more overactive, compared to the lower chakras. In this state, your Root and Sacral chakras can’t provide you with the grounding and personal power you need to feel tethered to the world. You may find yourself daydreaming and spacing out, unable to focus.
Heavier Lower Chakras When your lower chakras are dominating your life-force energy, you may experience writer’s block or an inability to experience moments of creative insight. If you need to accomplish something that requires ambition or foresight, you may feel unable to muster the vision it takes. Heavy lower chakras are particularly burdensome because they interfere with your Crown Chakra, Third Eye Chakra, and Throat Chakra and prevent you from maintaining a strong connection to the Divine and your inner wisdom. This can lead to feelings of spiritual loneliness, overtly sexual behavior, overbearing outspokenness and even a heavy, plodding walk that gives the impression of being weighed down.
Why Heal the Chakras? Chakra balancing brings more than a peaceful state of mind or positive self-esteem. They affect your body-wide energy and prevent you from experiencing full physical wellness and electric flow of energy within the human body. During an imbalance, you are much more likely to have illnesses, pains, discomforts, and symptoms that hold your body back from optimal functioning.
Benefits of Balanced Chakras Balancing your chakras sets the stage for improved overall health and an ability to heal from any illness or injury much faster. You’ll not only feel physically healed, but you’ll find your emotions feel healthier, and it’s easier to thrive spiritually. Deep sleep is easier to accomplish when your chakras are in balance. You’re less prone to nightmares and other sleep disturbances, and this helps you rest deeply and feel more energized in your waking life. People with balanced chakras have better awareness, concentration, and the ability to remember things. They feel creative and resourceful because they have nimble thinking and keen insight. They’re also more open to new experiences and can maintain a more positive outlook on life.
Ways to Heal Your Chakras Now let’s take the path toward healing your chakras and improving your health and mental outlook. Here are some reliable methods for restoring healing energy and chakra balance:
Meditation Chakra healing meditation is a spiritual practice that focuses your awareness on the energy flow throughout your body. To begin meditation, first find a quiet spot away from the bustle of daily life. Now breathe deeply and bring yourself to a state of pure awareness. Notice your thoughts and feelings, which throb and move throughout your body. Many people find this process easier with guided meditation, in which an expert helps you navigate the experience. I offer an easy way to get the most out of chakra meditation in this video.
Affirmations Affirmations are positive statements that promote a restorative connection between your mind, body, and spirit to clear negative energy. For healing, focus on affirmations about well-being, such as: “I am whole and complete.”
Massage Massage loosens blocked energy and restores flow through your body’s channels. In fact, massage can be a great first step in chakra healing because it supports meditation and other forms of healing.
Music Music is an important part of chakra healing because it creates vibrations you can use to open and restore energy flow.
Chakra Stones With chakra stones and healing crystals, you can welcome the energy from deep within the earth to soothe and unblock your clogged channels in the body. I recommend reading How Chakra Stones Can Empower Your Life (And How To Use Them).
Yoga Yoga is one of the classic ways to open your body to self-expression and restore balance throughout the chakras. Focus on a particular area of the body or progress through a full series of movements to bring balance to your entire chakra energy system.
Essential Oils Invite balance through the sense of smell with essential oils. To learn more about the exact oils you’ll need for chakra healing, please read Activate Your Chakras With Essential Oils.
Professional Energy Healers When in doubt, consult a professional reiki healer. Energy healers specialize in helping people clear blockages and restore their natural balance across the chakras.
What is Body of Harmony? Final Thoughts on Healing the Chakras… Here’s a final word about chakra healing: It’s not a “one and done” approach. It must become part of your everyday self-care routine. Chakra healing helps you maintain lifelong health and energy flow from the top of your Crown Chakra down deep into your Root Chakra and beyond. In life, we constantly face challenges that threaten to weigh us down and break our spirits. We must remain vigilant in healing our chakras so that the pain of our past cannot hold us back. The practices we’ve shared in this article are simple, but they can make a huge contribution to your lifelong well-being.

Chinese virologist who fled to the US after claiming Beijing covered up Covid-19 vows to publish evidence. PROVING the virus is man made – and claims even non-scientists will be able to verify the data!
Here’s How Scientists Think Coronavirus Spreads from Bats to Humans Respected Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng Yan claims coronavirus was man made Appeared on Loose Women today from secret location after fleeing Hong Kong Former researcher at the University of Hong Kong claimed her data was deleted Chinese national health commission have denied claims outbreak started in lab By MONICA GREEP FOR MAILONLINE
PUBLISHED: 09:26 EDT, 11 September 2020 | UPDATED: 09:58 EDT, 11 September 2020. A virologist who claimed the Chinese government covered up the coronavirus outbreak says she will produce scientific evidence the virus was man-made. Respected Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng Yan, who specialised in virology and immunology at the Hong Kong School of Public Health, claimed that Beijing knew about the coronavirus well before reports began to emerge. She has since been forced to flee Hong Kong fearing her life is in danger, and appeared on Loose Women from a secret location, revealing that the Chinese government had ‘removed all her information’ from government databases. Dr. Yan claimed that reports that Covid-19 originated at a wet market in Wuhan are a ‘smoke screen’, and that she plans to publish a report she claims has evidence the virus is man made. ‘The first thing is the meat market in Wuhan is a smoke screen and this virus is not from nature,’ Dr. Yan said. When asked where the virus comes from, the scientist replied: ‘It comes from the lab in Wuhan.’ ‘The genome sequence is like a human fingerprint’, she said. ‘And based on this you can identify these things. I will [use this] evidence to tell people why this has come from the lab in China, why they are the ones who made it. ‘Anyone, even if you have no biology knowledge, will be able to read it, and check and identify and verify it yourself. ‘It is critical to understand it, we can not overcome it, it will be life-threatening for everyone.’ She claimed that ahead of fleeing her country, her information was wiped from government databases and that her peers were ‘told to spread rumours about her’. ‘This is some common sense for Chinese people’, she said. ‘We know under Chinese government [they are at risk.] ‘They deleted all my information and also they told people to spread rumours about me, that I’m a liar, I don’t know anything, I just killed a hamster in the lab. They will try to control my family and friends and then suddenly I don’t exist.’ The virologist was based at a prestigious Hong Kong university, one of the world’s leading centres for researching infectious diseases and a key part of the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) global epidemiology network. Yan says she was one of the first scientists to study the coronavirus that would become known as Covid-19, and claims at the end of December 2019 she was asked by her supervisor at the University to look into an odd cluster of SARS-like cases that had erupted in mainland China. Through her medical and scientific contacts she claims to have stumbled upon a cover-up of epic proportions, but her evidence about human transmission and claims Beijing deliberately distorting details of the virus’ origins were ignored. As the death toll rose, Dr. Yan felt she had a moral and scientific duty to blow the whistle on the cover up, and is now in hiding after travelling to the US, and fears that her life is in danger. ‘I was a medical doctor and PHD, said Yan, ‘I work with a bunch of the top experts in the world and because I had my two degrees from mainland China, I was the one assigned to do the secret investigation about new pneumonia in Wuhan. ‘During my investigation, what I found I reported to my supervisor, there was no response, because everyone was worried. ‘So I kept silent, I knew I had to tell people because it’s urgent and on the account of a famous Chinese YouTuber in the US it was told to the world [that] China had discovered the Covid situation and [that] human to human transmission already exists.’ Yan claimed she saw ‘nobody responding’ to her reports of human to human transmission, and that while there is fear surrounding the Chinese government, she ‘could not keep silent’. From the beginning, I decided to get this message out in the world and it was very scary in the world because I’m a doctor and I knew if I don’t tell the truth to the world I will regret it myself in the future. She went on: ‘I never thought this would happen when I did the secret investigation, I [thought] I would speak to my supervisor and they would do the right thing on behalf of the government. ‘But what I saw was nobody responding to that. People are scared of the government but this was something urgent, and Chinese New Year time, [I knew] this was a dangerous virus and all these things meant I could not keep silent, there are human beings and global health [at risk].’ The Chinese national health commission have denied the outbreak started in the lab, saying there is no evidence the new coronavirus was created in a laboratory. A spokesperson told ITV: ‘The fact is there is no delay or cover up whatsoever from the Chinese government, it reported virus data and relayed information as soon as possible to the international community. ‘As soon as cases were identified in Wuhan city China acted immediately to conduct investigations to stop the spread of the disease’.
The Trail Leading Back to the Wuhan Labs China’s ‘Bat Woman’ Shi Zhengli denies ‘defecting with intelligence files’ Editor’s Note (4/24/20): This article was originally published online on March 11. It has been updated for inclusion in the June 2020 issue of Scientific American and to address rumors that SARS-CoV-2 emerged from Shi Zhengli’s lab in China. Wuhan-based virologist Shi Zhengli has identified dozens of deadly SARS-like viruses in bat caves, and she warns there are more out there
The mysterious patient samples arrived at the Wuhan Institute of Virology at 7 P.M. on December 30, 2019. Moments later Shi Zhengli’s cell phone rang. It was her boss, the institute’s director. The Wuhan Center for Disease Control and Prevention had detected a novel coronavirus in two hospital patients with atypical pneumonia, and it wanted Shi’s renowned laboratory to investigate. If the finding was confirmed, the new pathogen could pose a serious public health threat—because it belonged to the same family of viruses as the one that caused severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a disease that plagued 8,100 people and killed nearly 800 of them between 2002 and 2003. “Drop whatever you are doing and deal with it now,” she recalls the director saying.
Shi, a virologist who is often called China’s “bat woman” by her colleagues because of her virus-hunting expeditions in bat caves over the past 16 years, walked out of the conference she was attending in Shanghai and hopped on the next train back to Wuhan. “I wondered if [the municipal health authority] got it wrong,” she says. “I had never expected this kind of thing to happen in Wuhan, in central China.” Her studies had shown that the southern, subtropical provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan have the greatest risk of coronaviruses jumping to humans from animals—particularly bats, a known reservoir. If coronaviruses were the culprit, she remembers thinking, “Could they have come from our lab?”
While Shi’s team at the Wuhan institute, an affiliate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, raced to uncover the identity of the contagion—over the following week they connected the illness to the novel coronavirus that became known as SARS-CoV-2—the disease spread like wildfire. By April 20 more than 84,000 people in China had been infected. About 80 percent of them lived in the province of Hubei, of which Wuhan is the capital, and more than 4,600 had died. Outside of China, about 2.4 million people across 210 or so countries and territories had caught the virus, and more than 169,000 had perished from the disease it caused, COVID-19.
The New Coronavirus Outbreak: What We Know So Far Scientists have long warned that the rate of emergence of new infectious diseases is accelerating—especially in developing countries where high densities of people and animals increasingly mingle and move about. “It’s incredibly important to pinpoint the source of infection and the chain of cross-species transmission,” says disease ecologist Peter Daszak, president of Eco-Health Alliance, a New York City–based nonprofit research organization that collaborates with researchers, such as Shi, in 30 countries in Asia, Africa and the Middle East to discover new viruses in wildlife. An equally important task, he adds, is to hunt down other pathogens to “prevent similar incidents from happening again.”
THE CAVES To Shi, her first virus-discovery expedition felt like a vacation. On a breezy, sunny spring day in 2004, she joined an international team of researchers to collect samples from bat colonies in caves near Nanning, the capital of Guangxi. Her inaugural cave was typical of the region: large, rich in limestone columns and— as a popular tourist destination—easily accessible. “It was spellbinding,” Shi recalls. Milky-white stalactites hung from the ceiling like icicles, glistening with moisture.
But the holiday-like atmosphere soon dissipated. Many bats—including several insect-eating species of horseshoe bats that are abundant in southern Asia—roost in deep, narrow caves on steep terrain. Often guided by tips from local villagers, Shi and her colleagues had to hike for hours to potential sites and inch through tight rock crevasses on their stomachs. And the flying mammals can be elusive. In one frustrating week, the team explored more than 30 caves and saw only a dozen bats. These expeditions were part of the effort to catch the culprit in the SARS outbreak, the first major epidemic of the 21st century. A Hong Kong team had reported that wildlife traders in Guangdong first caught the SARS coronavirus from civets, mongooselike mammals that are native to tropical and subtropical Asia and Africa. Before SARS, the world had only an inkling of coronaviruses—so named because their spiky surface resembles a crown when seen under a microscope, says Linfa Wang, who directs the emerging infectious diseases program at Singapore’s Duke-NUS Medical School. Coronaviruses were mostly known for causing common colds. “The SARS outbreak was a game changer,” Wang says. It was the first emergence of a deadly coronavirus with pandemic potential. The incident helped to jump-start a global search for animal viruses that could find their way into humans. Shi was an early recruit of that effort, and both Daszak and Wang have been her long-term collaborators.
With the SARS virus, just how the civets got it remained a mystery. Two previous incidents were telling: Australia’s 1994 Hendra virus infections, in which the contagion jumped from horses to humans, and Malaysia’s 1998 Nipah virus outbreak, in which it moved from pigs to people. Wang found that both diseases were caused by pathogens that originated in fruit-eating bats. Horses and pigs were merely the intermediate hosts. Bats in the Guangdong market also contained traces of the SARS virus, but many scientists dismissed this as contamination. Wang, however, thought bats might be the source. In those first virus-hunting months in 2004, whenever Shi’s team located a bat cave, it would put a net at the opening before dusk and then wait for the nocturnal creatures to venture out to feed for the night. Once the bats were trapped, the researchers took blood and saliva samples, as well as fecal swabs, often working into the small hours. After catching up on some sleep, they would return to the cave in the morning to collect urine and fecal pellets.
But sample after sample turned up no trace of genetic material from coronaviruses. It was a heavy blow. “Eight months of hard work seemed to have gone down the drain,” Shi says. “We thought maybe bats had nothing to do with SARS.” The scientists were about to give up when a research group in a neighboring lab handed them a diagnostic kit for testing antibodies produced by people with SARS. There was no guarantee that the test would work for bat antibodies, but Shi gave it a go anyway. “What did we have to lose?” she says. The results exceeded her expectations. Samples from three horseshoe bat species contained antibodies to the SARS virus. “It was a turning point for the project,” Shi says. The researchers learned that the presence of the coronavirus in bats was ephemeral and seasonal—but an antibody reaction could last from weeks to years. The diagnostic kit, therefore, offered a valuable pointer as to how to hunt down viral genomic sequences.
Shi’s team used the antibody test to narrow down the list of locations and bat species to pursue in the quest for genomic clues. After roaming mountainous terrain in most of China’s dozens of provinces, the researchers turned their attention to one spot: Shitou Cave, on the outskirts of Kunming, the capital of Yunnan, where they conducted intense sampling during different seasons over five consecutive years. The efforts paid off. The pathogen hunters discovered hundreds of bat-borne coronaviruses with incredible genetic diversity. “The majority of them are harmless,” Shi says. But dozens belong to the same group as SARS. They can infect human lung cells in a petri dish and cause SARS-like diseases in mice. In Shitou Cave—where painstaking scrutiny has yielded a natural genetic library of bat-borne viruses— the team discovered a coronavirus strain that came from horseshoe bats with a genomic sequence nearly 97% identical to the one found in civets in Guangdong. The finding concluded a decade-long search for the natural reservoir of the SARS coronavirus.
A DANGEROUS MIX In many bat dwellings Shi has sampled, including Shitou Cave, “constant mixing of different viruses creates a great opportunity for dangerous new pathogens to emerge,” says Ralph Baric, a virologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In the vicinity of such viral melting pots, Shi says, “you don’t need to be a wildlife trader to be infected.” Near Shitou Cave, for example, many villages sprawl among the lush hillsides in a region known for its roses, oranges, walnuts and hawthorn berries. In October 2015 Shi’s team collected blood samples from more than 200 residents in four of those villages. It found that six people, or nearly 3 percent, carried antibodies against SARS-like coronaviruses from bats—even though none of them had handled wildlife or reported SARS-like or other pneumonia like symptoms. Only one had traveled outside of Yunnan prior to the sampling, and all said they had seen bats flying in their village. Three years earlier Shi’s team had been called in to investigate the virus profile of a mine shaft in Yunnan’s mountainous Mojiang County—famous for its fermented Pu’er tea—where six miners suffered from pneumonia like diseases and two died. After sampling the cave for a year, the researchers discovered a diverse group of coronaviruses in six bat species. In many cases, multiple viral strains had infected a single animal, turning it into a flying factory for new viruses. “The mine shaft stunk like hell,” says Shi, who, like her colleagues, went in wearing a protective mask and clothing. “Bat guano, covered in fungus, littered the cave.” Although the fungus turned out to be the pathogen that had sickened the miners, she says it would have been only a matter of time before they caught the coronaviruses if the mine had not been promptly shut. With growing human populations increasingly encroaching on wildlife habitats, with unprecedented changes in land use, with wildlife and livestock transported across countries and their products around the world, and with sharp increases in both domestic and international travel, pandemics of new diseases are a mathematical near certainty. This had been keeping Shi and many other researchers awake at night long before the mysterious samples landed at the Wuhan Institute of Virology on that ominous evening last December. More than a year ago Shi’s team published two comprehensive reviews about coronaviruses in Viruses and Nature Reviews Microbiology. Drawing evidence from her own studies—many of which were published in top academic journals—and from others, Shi and her co-authors warned of the risk of future outbreaks of bat-borne coronaviruses.
NIGHTMARE SCENARIO Coronavirus DNA Structure found, But Chinese ‘Bat Woman’ Virologist Silenced By Beijing! On the train back to Wuhan on December 30 last year, Shi and her colleagues discussed ways to immediately start testing the patients’ samples. In the following weeks—the most intense and the most stressful time of her life—China’s bat woman felt she was fighting a battle in her worst nightmare, even though it was one she had been preparing for over the past 16 years. Using a technique called polymerase chain reaction, which can detect a virus by amplifying its genetic material, the team found that samples from five of seven patients had genetic sequences present in all coronaviruses. Shi instructed her group to repeat the tests and, at the same time, sent the samples to another facility to sequence the full viral genomes. Meanwhile she frantically went through her own lab’s records from the past few years to check for any mishandling of experimental materials, especially during disposal. Shi breathed a sigh of relief when the results came back: none of the sequences matched those of the viruses her team had sampled from bat caves. “That really took a load off my mind,” she says. “I had not slept a wink for days.” By January 7 the Wuhan team had determined that the new virus had indeed caused the disease those patients suffered—a conclusion based on results from analyses using polymerase chain reaction, full genome sequencing, antibody tests of blood samples and the virus’s ability to infect human lung cells in a petri dish. The genomic sequence of the virus, eventually named SARS-CoV-2, was 96 percent identical to that of a coronavirus the researchers had identified in horseshoe bats in Yunnan. Their results appeared in a paper published online on February 3 in Nature. “It’s crystal clear that bats, once again, are the natural reservoir,” says Daszak, who was not involved in the study. Since then, researchers have published more than 4,500 genomic sequences of the virus, showing those samples around the world appear to “share a common ancestor,” Baric says. The data also point to a single introduction into humans followed by sustained human-to-human transmission, researchers say. Given that the virus seems fairly stable initially and that many infected individuals appear to have mild symptoms, scientists suspect that the pathogen might have been around for weeks or even months before severe cases raised the alarm. “There might have been mini outbreaks, but the viruses either burned out or maintained low-level transmission before causing havoc,” Baric says. Most animal-borne viruses reemerge periodically, he adds, so “the Wuhan outbreak is by no means incidental.”
MARKET FORCES To many, the region’s burgeoning wildlife markets—which sell a wide range of animals such as bats, civets, pangolins, badgers and crocodiles—are perfect viral melting pots. Although humans could have caught the deadly virus from bats directly (according to several studies, including those by Shi and her colleagues), independent teams have suggested that pangolins may have been an intermediate host. These teams have reportedly uncovered SARS-CoV-2-like coronaviruses in pangolins that were seized in anti smuggling operations in southern China. On February 24 China announced a permanent ban on wildlife consumption and trade except for research, medicinal or display purposes—which will stamp out an industry worth $76 billion and put approximately 14 million people out of jobs, according to a 2017 report commissioned by the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Some welcome the initiative, whereas others, such as Daszak, worry that without efforts to change people’s traditional beliefs or to provide alternative livelihoods, a blanket ban may simply push the business underground. This could make disease detection even more challenging. “Eating wildlife has been part of the cultural tradition” in China for thousands of years, Daszak says. “It won’t change overnight.” In any case, Shi says, “wildlife trade and consumption are only part of problem.” In late 2016 pigs across four farms in Qingyuan County in Guangdong—60 miles from the site where the SARS outbreak originated—suffered from acute vomiting and diarrhea, and nearly 25,000 of the animals died. Local veterinarians could not detect any known pathogen and called Shi for help. The cause of the illness—swine acute diarrhea syndrome (SADS)—turned out to be a virus whose genomic sequence was 98 percent identical to that of a coronavirus found in horseshoe bats in a nearby cave. “This is a serious cause for concern,” says Gregory Gray, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Duke University. Pigs and humans have very similar immune systems, making it easy for viruses to cross between the two species. Moreover, a team at Zhejiang University in the Chinese city of Hangzhou found that the SADS virus could infect cells from many organisms in a petri dish, including rodents, chickens, nonhuman primates and humans. Given the scale of swine farming in many countries, such as China and the U.S., Gray says, looking for novel coronaviruses in pigs should be a top priority. The current outbreak follows several others during the past three decades that have been caused by six different bat-borne viruses: Hendra, Nipah, Marburg, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV (Middle East respiratory syndrome) and Ebola. But “the animals [themselves] are not the problem,” Wang says. In fact, bats promote biodiversity and ecosystem health by eating insects and pollinating plants. “The problem arises when we get in contact with them,” he says.
TOWARD PREVENTION Here’s How Scientists Think Coronavirus Spreads from Bats to Humans When I spoke to Shi in late February—two months into the epidemic and one month after the government imposed severe movement restrictions in Wuhan, a megacity of 11 million—she said, laughing, that life felt almost normal. “Maybe we are getting used to it. The worst days are certainly over.” The institute staffers had a special pass to travel from home to their lab, but they could not go anywhere else. They had to subsist on instant noodles during their long hours at work because the institute’s canteen was closed. New revelations about the coronavirus kept coming to light. The researchers discovered, for instance, that the pathogen enters human lung cells by using a receptor called angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, and they and other groups have since been screening for drugs that can block it. Scientists are also racing to develop vaccines. In the long run, the Wuhan team plans to develop broad-spectrum vaccines and drugs against coronaviruses deemed risky to humans. “The Wuhan outbreak is a wake-up call,” Shi says. Many scientists say the world should move beyond merely responding to deadly pathogens when they arise. “The best way forward is prevention,” Daszak says. Because 70 percent of emerging infectious diseases of animal origins come from wildlife, a top priority should be identifying them and developing better diagnostic tests, he adds. Doing so would essentially mean continuing on a much larger scale what researchers such as Daszak and Shi had been doing before their funding ended this year. Such efforts should focus on high-risk viral groups in mammals prone to coronavirus infections, such as bats, rodents, badgers, civets, pangolins and nonhuman primates, Daszak says. He adds that developing countries in the tropics, where wildlife diversity is greatest, should be the front line of this battle against viruses. Daszak and his colleagues have analyzed approximately 500 human infectious diseases from the past century. They found that the emergence of new pathogens tends to happen in places where a dense population has been changing the landscape—by building roads and mines, cutting down forests and intensifying agriculture. “China is not the only hotspot,” he says, noting that other major emerging economies, such as India, Nigeria and Brazil, are also at great risk. Once potential pathogens are mapped out, scientists and public health officials can regularly check for possible infections by analyzing blood and swab samples from livestock, from wild animals that are farmed and traded, and from high-risk human populations such as farmers, miners, villagers who live near bats, and people who hunt or handle wildlife, Gray says. This approach, known as “One Health,” aims to integrate the health management of wildlife, livestock and people. “Only then can we catch an outbreak before it turns into an epidemic,” he says, adding that the strategy could potentially save the hundreds of billions of dollars such an epidemic can cost. Back in Wuhan, where the lockdown was finally lifted on April 8, China’s bat woman is not in a celebratory mood. She is distressed because stories from the Internet and major media have repeated a tenuous suggestion that SARS-CoV-2 accidentally leaked from her lab—despite the fact that its genetic sequence does not match any her lab had previously studied. Other scientists are quick to dismiss the allegation. “Shi leads a world-class lab of the highest standards,” Daszak says. Despite the disturbance, Shi is determined to continue her work. “The mission must go on,” she says. “What we have uncovered is just the tip of an iceberg.” She is planning to lead a national project to systematically sample viruses in bat caves, with much wider scope and intensity than previous attempts. Daszak’s team has estimated that there are more than 5,000 coronavirus strains waiting to be discovered in bats globally. “Bat-borne coronaviruses will cause more outbreaks,” Shi says with a tone of brooding certainty. “We must find them before they find us.” Read more about the coronavirus outbreak from Scientific American here.

While the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases continues to rise globally, scientists are still looking for the origin of the virus. In this regard, Wuhan Institute of Virology has been at the forefront. They have been key to sequencing the COVID-19 genome and are now working to track the source and develop a vaccine. But despite this institute’s best efforts, they have been wrongfully targeted by rumors. Earlier, CGTN’s Liu Xin spoke to virologist Shi Zhengli from this lab. Doctor Shi’s vital work has earned her the nickname “Batwoman.” The activity inside the Wuhan lab from the early days until now has piqued the world’s interest. Can she set the record straight?About Covid-19!!
1. Selfishness helps us find the fault in others, rather than see the flaws in ourselves. 2. So we can grow grow toward God and grow together as a family. 3. We have to get the selfish part of ourselves out of the way, therefore, we can not be selfish to a fault.
Imagine a world without radical extremism. R.I.P. to the 2,976 American people that lost their lives on 9/11 and R.I.P. to the 48,644 Afghan and 1,690,903 Iraqi people that paid the ultimate price for a crime they did not commit & the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who experience this everyday. Review the events on ” September 11, 2001.”
What Is the Sign of “the Last Days,” or “End Times”? The Bible describes events and conditions that would mark “the conclusion of the [current] system of things,” or “the end of the world.” (Matthew 24:3; King James Version) The Bible calls this time period “the last days” and the “time of the end,” or “end times.” (2 Timothy 3:1; Daniel 8:19; (Easy-to-Read Version) The following are some outstanding features of the last-days, or end-times, prophecies: What Will Happen In 2020? I’m not referring to the 1970s well-known group that came out with “Lowrider,” or “The World is a Ghetto.” I am referring to what Dictionary.com defines as “a conflict carried on by force of arms, as between nations or between parties within a nation; warfare, as by land, sea, or air.” We’ve often heard the phrase, “War is hell!” I came across an article from an old publication, “Today In the Word,” that was published back in June 19, 1992. The article stated, “A group of academics and historians have compiled this startling information: Since 3600 B.C., the world has known only 292 years of peace! During this period there have been 14,351 wars large and small, in which 3.64 billion people have been killed. The value of the property destroyed is equal to a golden belt around the world 97.2 miles wide and 33 feet thick. Since 650 B.C., there have also been 1,656 arms races, only 16 of which have not ended in war. The remainder ended in the economic collapse of the countries involved.” Now, keep in mind that this was printed back in 1992.
How much more, today, have we accumulated in the pangs of war? War. It has always been a reality. For many, a very close, backyard reality! Especially in Middle East, and other third world countries. Is war something that we, as Christians, need to be against? What does the Bible teach about war? Many people make the mistake of reading what the Bible says in Exodus 20:13, “You shall not kill,” and then seeking to apply this command to war. However, the Hebrew word literally means “the intentional, premeditated killing of another person with malice; murder.” God often ordered the Israelites to go to war with other nations (1 Samuel 15:3; Joshua 4:13). God ordered the death penalty for numerous crimes (Exodus 21:12, 15; 22:19; Leviticus 20:11). So, God is not against killing in all circumstances, but only murder. War is never a good thing, but sometimes it is a necessary thing. In a world filled with sinful people (Romans 3:10-18), war is inevitable. Sometimes the only way to keep sinful people from doing great harm to the innocent is by going to war. In the Old Testament, God ordered the Israelites to “take vengeance on the Midianites for the Israelites” (Numbers 31:2). Deuteronomy 20:16-17 declares, “However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroy them…as the LORD your God has commanded you.” Also, 1 Samuel 15:18 says, “Go and completely destroy those wicked people, the Amalekites; make war on them until you have wiped them out.” Obviously God is not against all war. Jesus is always in perfect agreement with the Father (John 10:30), so we cannot argue that war was only God’s will in the Old Testament. God does not change (Malachi 3:6; or James 1:17).
What about when Jesus returns? Jesus’ second coming will be exceedingly violent. Revelation 19:11-21 describes the ultimate war with Christ, the conquering commander who judges and makes war “with justice” (v.11). It’s going to be bloody (v. 13) and gory. The birds will eat the flesh of all those who oppose Him (v. 17-18). He has no compassion upon His enemies, whom He will conquer completely and consign to a “fiery lake of burning sulfur” (v. 20). It is an error to say that God never supports a war. Believe it or not, Jesus is not a pacifist. In a world filled with evil people, sometimes war is necessary to prevent even greater evil.
If Hitler had not been defeated by World War II, how many more millions would have been killed? If the American Civil War had not been fought, how much longer would African-Americans have had to suffer as slaves? War on a large scale.— You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Matthew 24:7; Revelation 6:4.
Famine.— “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord God, “when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they shall run to and from, to seek the word of the Lord, but they shall not find it. Amos 8:11-12
Great earthquakes.— Earthquakes awaken people out of their sleep both naturally and spiritually. Earthquakes bring forth both resurrection and revival. Earthquakes open the prison doors, shake foundations, wake up people, set captives free and bring salvation to the lost. Earthquakes occur to bring light to those who sit in dungeons (inner prisons) and in darkness. Luke 21:11.
Hurricanes. — And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Luke 21:25
Wild Fires. — As a wildfire charges through the forest or a flame sprints up the mountainside, Read full chapterPsalm 83:14
Pestilences, or epidemics of “terrible diseases.”— Pestilence is contagious, virulent, and devastating. For example, the Black Plague in Europe killed over 30 percent of the population during the late Middle Ages. In the Bible, pestilence is usually a sign of God’s judgment on a nation or people group, (Deuteronomy 32:24; 1 Chronicles 21:12; Ezekiel 7:14–15). The God who protects and blesses is also the God who sends disaster and pestilence when it accomplishes His righteous purposes on earth (Isaiah 45:7; Ezekiel 5:16–17; Amos 4:10). Pestilence is promised as part of God’s final judgment on the world in Revelation 18:8.
Increase of crime.— The Decline in Morality Has Caused an Increase in Crime In an age where violent crime is more dominant than ever and morality is not heard of, there arise many problems that result from each other. The past thirty years, our society has been determined to secularize itself and to separate from many moral standards that root from the Bible. Matthew 24:12.
Ruining of the earth by mankind.— God will replace human governments, which have been unable to protect the earth, with a perfect heavenly Kingdom. (Daniel 2:44; Matthew 6:9, 10) That Kingdom will be ruled by God’s Son, Jesus Christ. (Isaiah 9:6, 7) When on earth, Jesus exercised miraculous powers over natural elements. (Mark 4:35-41) As the King of God’s Kingdom, Jesus will exercise full control over earth and its elements. He will re-create, or renew, conditions on earth, making them similar to those that existed in the garden of Eden.—Matthew 19:28; Luke 23:43. Revelation 11:18.
Deterioration of people’s attitudes, as shown by many who are “unthankful, disloyal, . . . not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride.”—2 Timothy 3:1-4.
Breakdown of the family, with people who have “no natural affection” and children who are “disobedient to parents.”—2 Timothy 3:2, 3.
Love of God growing cold in most people.—Matthew 24:12. Noteworthy displays of religious hypocrisy.—2 Timothy 3:5. Increased understanding of Bible prophecies, including those related to the last days. —Daniel 12:4. Global preaching of the good news of the Kingdom.—Matthew 24:14.
The simultaneous fulfillment of all these prophecies, not just a few or even most of them. —Matthew 24:33.
The bible says many things aboutmoney, but the heart of the matter is this: money can become something that rules our lives—an idol of sorts. God’s desire is for us to have life to the full and He knows that worshiping moneywill keep us from that. The Bible neither condemns money nor criticizes those who have it —even a lot of it. The point is not the amount a person has but his attitude toward what he has or wants to acquire.
Are we living in “the last days”? Yes. World conditions as well as Bible chronology indicate that the last days began in 1914. At that time, God’s Kingdom began ruling in heaven, and one of its first actions was to expel Satan the Devil and the demons from heaven and restrict their activity to the earth. (Revelation 12:7-12) Satan’s influence on mankind can be seen in many of the bad attitudes and actions that make the last days “critical times hard to deal with.”—2 Timothy 3:1. War in your own country is a terrible thing. Some wars are more “just” than others, but war is always the result of sin (Romans 3:10-18). At the same time, Ecclesiastes 3:8 declares, “There is…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.” In a world filled with sin, hatred, and evil (Romans 3:10-18), war is inevitable. Christians should not desire war, but neither are Christians to oppose the government God has placed in authority over them (Romans 13:1-4; 1 Peter 2:17). The most important thing we can be doing in a time of war is to be praying for godly wisdom for our leaders, praying for the safety of our military, praying for quick resolution to conflicts, and praying for a minimum of casualties among civilians on both sides (Philippians 4:6-7).
When Dana told me that she looks 10 years younger for it through The Snake Diet and turned her life around. I knew that I had to blog about her experience.
Her story started: I’m just a self taught country girl, I hurt my back several years ago and don’t work anymore. I Lived with chronic pain for years, I was in wheelchair for 2 years prior to 3 back surgeries, Couldn’t walk, Nerve pinched and joints deteriorated. That why I had a L4- SI joint dysfunction fusion. Tendon in my thumb and wrist joint was ate up with arthritis and had to be replaced also. I used to be a cocktail waitress Had to wear 2 inch heels and carry heavy trays on a casino boat while going to school to be a nurse destroyed my career. I still have to take opiates for quality of life Especially in winter I hurt more. I use CBD oil it helps but Still need opiates – the CBD wasn’t strong enough to get me comfortable so to speak.
3 days of dry fasting will rebuild your whole immune system and rid your body of inflammation – Autophagy – research it. On October 5 2016, Japanese scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel prize in Physiology and Medicine for his research of autophagy in yeast. Fasting for Health and Longevity: Nobel Prize Winning Research on Cell Aging. Japanese cell biologist Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2016 for his research on how cells recycle and renew their content, a process called autophagy. Fasting activates autophagy, which helps slow down the aging process and has a positive impact on cell renewal. The study found that short periods of fasting have a positive impact on cell renewal and help slow down the aging process. Bright Side found out what Yoshinori’s study is all about.
Also Russians have been curing cancer for years by fasting. Cole states you can fast for days depending on how much fat u have fat people can’t starve. Notice how wild animals like snakes and lions are fit and ripped cuz they fast Snakes are fasting focused! One thing Cole taught me is you can carb load on meat it raises insulin extra protein the body doesn’t use turns to sugar. Gluconeogenesis: Our bodies can run on fat as fuel… but your body will burn fat when glycogen is depleted U always want to carb load only enough to get it depleted to build muscle. It’s always important to Eat an apple before workout. Then after workout go carnivore or keto.
This way you will Stay in ketosis until your next workout. Before the snake diet: I always Felt like shit with high cholesterol and a fatty liver all healed by drinking the snake juice. Mix 1/4 tsp of Himalayan salt 1/2 tsp of no salt ( potassium) 1/2 tsp baking sodas to a liter of water sip throughout the day keeps electrolytes balanced and creates an alkaline state in your body. I haven’t been sick in years since changing her diet and began eating healthy. Usually carnivores in fall & winter and during the summer veggies. Also during the summer fishing is in her blood from her father who was a bass master and taught her well. Although during the summer her abs hold some fat from drinking seltzer’s alcohol and some junk because she wants to enjoy life but try to stay strict. Something about boating and drinking go together, She takes fishing trips down to Panama City to catch Spanish mackerel and hard tail.

Snake Diet For Weight Loss: Does It Work? Sep 25, 2019 01:05 AM By Darwin Malicdem
Snake diet is a unique weight loss plan that promises people a faster way to achieve their goals. It involves longer fasting periods and a single meal a few times a week. Cole Robinson, who describes himself a fasting coach, created the snake diet. He promotes his approach as a less restrictive diet that focuses on lifestyle changes. But it is important to know that Robinson has no background in medicine, biology or nutrition. This raised questions about the safety and effectiveness of the snake diet. The Snake diet is a more extreme version of intermittent fasting. The diet requires followers to fast for 48 hours or longer and to take only one meal within a 1- to 2-hour window before the next fast. Robinson also encouraged people to add the electrolyte drink, called Snake Juice, to support weight loss, according to Healthline. It is available on his website or can be created at home using water, Himalayan pink salt, salt-free potassium chloride and food-grade Epsom salts. Robinson did not provide an exact dosage for the homemade Snake Juice. The snake diet involves three phases. The first step requires at least 48 hours of fasting along with apple cider vinegar drink and Snake Juice. The second phase requires extending the fasting period to 96 hours. Robinson said you should continue fasting until you can no longer tolerate it. The last phase of snake diet cuts fast cycles to 24 to 48 hours and maintains ketosis, a metabolic state that allows the body to burn fat for energy instead of glucose.
What Makes Snake Diet So Extreme? The snake diet limits calorie intake to less than 3,500 per week. This increases the risk of severe calorie deprivation since an individual’s weekly calorie intake should range from 11,000 to 21,000 per week based on guidelines set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. But it is true that snake diet could lead to weight loss. People may even see results faster than other weight loss plans. However, the snake diet promotes a potentially harmful approach. The prolonged fasts and significantly low calorie intake could cause a rapid but dangerous weight loss. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the body should lose fat by at least 1 to 2 pounds per week to stay healthy. Through snake diet, a person could lose 2 pounds per day just in the first week. Prolonged starvation also cuts consumption of essential nutrients such as vitamins, protein and fat. Nutrient deficiency contributes to the development of numerous diseases. Robinson said snake diet could help cure type 2 diabetes, herpes and inflammation. However, he lacks scientific evidence to support the health benefits of his approach. Previous studies also showed that prolonged fasting may play a role in inflammation and diabetes.

Shelton’s fasting http://www.loveandtruth.net/shelton-fasting.html Taking up the study of Levanzin’s fast for 31 days, undergone at Carnegie Institute, Morgulis says that this fast extended over the first two infancy periods. The first of these periods, lasting fifteen days saw a loss of ten per cent of Levanzin’s weight and represents “the transition from the metabolism of the well nourished condition to that of the fasting condition.” By the end of his 31 days’ fast, Levanzin lost about 20 percent of his weight. “Assuming the maximum loss he could possibly have survived 40 per cent,” says Morgulis, “it is clear that the fast could have extended another month before a fatal termination. In other words, the fast was broken at a relatively early stage.” If we take into consideration the fact that the second 20 percent of Levanzin’s weight would not have been lost nearly so rapidly as the first 20 per cent, it is very certain that he could have fasted much more than another month before a fatal termination. The rule that man or animal can sustain a loss of 40 percent of his or its body weight before death results must not be taken too seriously in practice. Obviously an emaciated man or woman weighing only 90 or 100 pounds cannot afford to lose 40 percent of his or her weight. On the other hand a man who ought to weigh about 150 pounds, but who actually weighs 350 pounds, can afford to lose much over 50 percent of his weight. Exhibition fasters have survived a reduction of body weight of thirty percent without anything like a total collapse of vital vigor.
Within recent years physiologists have tried to determine how long man can live without food by figuring on a basis of the period of time required for animals, particularly mammals, to starve to death. Their experiments indicate that the period in which death from starvation ensues is proportionate to the cube root of the body weight. A mouse weighing 18.0 grams dies after five or six days without food. The corresponding “starvation period” in man would be 15.6 times as long or 96.5 to 109 days. A dog weighing twenty kilograms dies in sixty days; the corresponding period for man is eighty-nine days. A cat weighing twenty-one kilograms can live eighteen days without food; the corresponding period for man would be fifty-five days. A rabbit weighing 24.22 kilograms dies after twenty-six days; the corresponding period in man would be seventy-nine days. From these figures, Dr. A. Putter, a German physician, who has made a study of fasting, concludes that there is nothing in comparative physiology to show that man cannot live from ninety to a hundred days without food, if he were kept under proper conditions of warmth, rest, fresh air, water and emotional poise. One great source of toxins is decomposing food in the digestive tract. Fasting soon eliminates this completely. The alimentary canal becomes practically free of bacteria. Only a week of fasting is required to result in the complete disappearance of all germs from the stomach. The small intestine becomes sterile. The hibernating bear and other hibernating animals lose all their colon bacilli during hibernation. Typhoid cases that fast through their illness are free of “typhoid bacilli” at the end of the acute stage and are not “dangerous” as “carriers.” The vital cells are not injured unless the fast is prolonged beyond the point where all the body’s nutritive reserves are consumed and no fasting advocate believes in or practices such a thing. Emaciation frees the body of excess inert materials in its tissues and proves thereby to be a great boon. One of the first things that nature does in an acute “disease” is to cast off a lot of her surplus weight. She dispenses with the unnecessary burden. The lowering of weight is a natural method of defense. It represents a reduction of the body’s nutritive labors, so that these may be fulfilled without exhausting the visceral organs. A classical example of the way in which fasting permits the stomach to rejuvenate itself is that of Dr. Tanner. He suffered for years with dyspepsia before his first fast. Indeed, it was this suffering that followed every meal that caused him to refrain from eating in order to miss the distress. So remarkably did his stomach repair itself during its period of rest that he was able, very foolishly, of course, to eat “sufficient food in the first twenty-four hours after breaking the fast to gain nine pounds, and thirty-six pounds in eight days, all that I had lost.” Although this was a rash procedure, the doctor suffered no apparent ill consequences from it. We cannot approve of such eating following a fast, but cite his example to show what a formerly weakened and dyspeptic stomach can do after a period of fasting. Read More:
Kimmy’s Story (how she beat cancer) I was first diagnosed with cancerous cells on my cervix which I had surgically removed under local anesthetic. Physically I recovered well from this procedure but I remained a raging hormonal mess which at the time I put down to ”stress and recovery’ from the cervical cancer scare. A few months later I was given the all clear with the cancerous cervix cells but my hormones were still a mess. I was diagnosed with a prolactinoma (tumor in my pituitary gland) which at the time the doctors believed was malignant (cancerous) due to its growth and the cancerous cells that had been in my cervix. The growth was measured at 7mm long and I was given the option of radiation therapy, surgery or medications. I chose the medications (with doctors approval) and set about fixing my diet, reducing stress levels and meditating at nights to avoid further damage to my body. A month passed and the doctor confirmed that a tumor was benign and that I could remain on medications for the rest of my life to control the tumor’s growth. I was successfully able to control the growth but I actually wanted a tumor dead and gone and to be rid of medications for life. Benign tumors can grow the size of golf balls and can also be the catalyst for a malignant tumor (cancerous) and I didn’t want this to be my fate. I had made many repeated attempts to ditch the meds but was unsuccessful with symptoms returning as soon as said meds were drained from my system. 3 months after my last attempt to ditch the meds and I saw Coles post about ditching meds …… and the rest is Snake Diet history. I ditched my meds on August 1st and began Snake Diet fasting. Slowly and painfully at first, struggling to get through 20 hours of fasting until I was so strong that I completed a 140-hour hard dry fast and broke it with an ice bath. This is my own personal account of my own personal experience. I share this with you not to get a thousand fucking likes or because I love suffering your fucking judgment – but to show you that if you put your faith in Cole Robinson and a fasting focused lifestyle you could dodge a potential bullet too.

LIFE’S UNEXPECTED MOMENTS – WHAT COULD GO WRONG! Keep going. EVERYBODY’s body gets old. It’s nature. Look at trees, mountains. With Every living thing – often maturity brings deeper beauty. That fear/dread/whatever and the ad campaigns who have etched themselves into your psyche that scream at you to stay young so you can make them rich. Non-violence must be integrated in all strata, corners and aspects of our lives. When your 60-year-old self looks back and think how beautiful and vivacious you are now. And the people that matter will always think that of you, no matter your age. Every year gets better and more liberating. And it simply means if you live to be the average age you’ve got another 15 years to help those who need you, so take care of those who are important to you, spread a little joy and appreciate being ALIVE. After all, getting older is a hell of a lot better than the alternative. Enjoy it. 75 is right around the corner. Whomever invented birthdays should be summarily executed at dawn (JK). I like to remind people that time, and age are man made concepts. If nobody told you how old you are, you wouldn’t know and care.

Are you living the life you choose? If not change it at once. We only have today, no more. You’re only one day older each day. Don’t think of it as another year or decade, just another day. Celebrate your life up to that point and look forward to your 70s…
Firstly, let me say that you’re only as old as you feel! Secondly, it only gets worse so enjoy today because it is the youngest you will ever be again. Thirdly, Life is what you make it. Screw what everyone else thinks. It’s up to you. Enjoy sunrises, sunsets , starry skies, thunderstorms, snow storms, laughter, don’t sweat the small stuff. Age is just a number, your attitude towards life is what counts. Take it from a 60 year old your life is winding down unless you work-out to get in even better shape, this is that decade, despite this pandemic disaster of course. There are a few things that suck about getting older, and there are a lot of things that absolutely don’t suck about it.
I just turned 60 on Trump Day – June 14, and while I find that there are wrinkles on my face, getting older is better. Wouldn’t go back if I could. Remember, that can be said of any age. There really is nothing magical about 60 that makes you “old”. You can rock 60 if you want to. Being ” Old” is just a mindset. There are 70 and 80 year olds still playing softball. It didn’t take me long to realize that 40 was just a number. You’re as old as you want to be. The more days you have on this planet the more ways you can find to be grateful that you’re still here. Enjoy the ride and live each day as your last, tomorrow holds no promises to nobody, age is just a number, you are not your age, you’re beautiful and grow more beautiful every day. Love the fact that older ages are denied to many !!!! Embrace each one , cherish them !!!! You are only a day older than you were yesterday. You are beautiful. You seem healthy. You have lived through the mistakes of your youth. You know who you are. Now you have the tools to go get it if you don’t have it. This can be the first of your very best years. Embrace it. As long as all your parts are working you shouldn’t worry about it. Because once you hit a certain age and I’m not going to tell you what it is everything starts to Fall Apart so enjoy your age they’re not that bad and you can have a lot more fun, Live it up! Eat only healthy food!
Always love your life – Laugh a lot!
Words of wisdom: Life ain’t about numbers, it’s just about enjoying what ya do n done! The thing I loved about my 50s is the very small amount of f@$!s I give for others’ opinions. I have embraced myself, become a much better me, and have a level of confidence in my professional and my personal life. Don’t waste time looking backward. When you are a beautiful, happy and healthy 70, you will look back at and laugh at your opinion of “the good old days of your youth.” Smile and embrace every year, day, second as they come. When you’re 70, you’re going to look back at this moment and think “instead of enjoying my youth, I wasted it worrying about my age”. So stop sweating your current age.
If your mind and heart are rooted in the presence and in the pursuit of unconditional love, life begins at any age. I think we all hit that point male or female, of our sense of uselessness. Do you have to remember you are still you, and you still have Life to Live. So you should feel good and make the most of it. You are beautiful and you are alive ! Vive tu vida! Live your life no matter what age you are. Try new things and travel! Stop wallowing in your age!
Be proud of your age –Look how far you have come. And oh how much more you have to love..to give..to learn..to create..to share..to grow. Use your confidence and your past endeavors… your accomplishments and your failures to guide you… Enjoy and love life, you really have to embrace it. The alternative is to drag your feet and hate the process….that’s crazy! This is your life! Embrace it with joy, purpose and a sense of adventure!! It’s just a number. What you do, how you approach each day and feel about yourself is what’s important. Life is all good. That said, there are days when I tell myself “I’m too old for this sh!t”. Lol For all dreamers who hustle every day, fight for their dreams and never give up!
The years fly by. Do something for yourself every day. If you want to feel really, truly happy, do things for others and don’t expect anything in return. And it’s ok to put off doing your laundry. Time keeps marching, and marching right over your face. In order to stay happy one needs to become more existential and less about the physical. Be happy, pay attention to what stresses you. Take care of your heart and soul. Take care of your skin, because you are beautiful.
The current paradigm is unsustainable, unjust, & we can heal it. Too much turmoil when you’re young, you worry about your looks, how much you weigh, what someone said…….the older you get the less you care and life becomes wonderful because you don’t sweat the small stuff anymore. I’m so happy-60 Its actually a great age. Lived through some history instead of just reading about it. Used computers and smartphones and old enough to know better in most situations. It’s not the miles on the odometer that count, … It’s the wear on the chassis. keep your oil changed, get your system flushed, rotate your tires. and, without sounding indelicate, occasionally getting the front end aligned is always a good idea… Revel in your life. Bask in the glow of saying exactly what you think. Bathe in the feeling of ‘this or that and remember I couldn’t give less of a f*ck’. Welcome the maturity which will engulf you with calm. Just the beginning. Learn who you are. Find your happiness and live it. You may realize some of your happiest days have been in the 2nd half of your life. Mine have. Being 60, It’s the beginning of an amazing journey. It’s just a moment in your life. It’s all of our destinies. Revel in your journey, it only happens once. There is no turning back time. You’ve earned every moment of it. Your age is irrelevant. Coincidentally You’re just getting interesting… Getting older can be fun. You might have more money and more freedom than you’ve ever had. Even if you don’t, start to do the things you want to do because there will be a time when you can’t. Double down on your health, your savings, and your skincare. I know it’s cliche’, but age really is just a number, it’s how you feel and carry yourself that’s what’s important. Besides the older you get, the wiser you become. There’s a lot more to see, do and learn, so cherish this moment while you can… We can’t do anything about aging, my suggestion is just own it and know that aging does not mean you’re less than when you ‘re younger, just love and appreciate yourselves and look at it as every birthday is special and a blessing. Older is better. Embrace it. Throw off the expectations of having to be anything except be your genuine self (It’s how you feel inside. and enjoy life to the fullest.)
I tell people you’re not as young as you feel, you’re as young as you ACT!!
Rub some dirt on it… Then take a hot bubble bath and forget 2020. I feel no different other than the aches & pains. Yup. YOU have choices:
1. Either you get older or you don’t. 2. Realize It doesn’t get any better. 3. Exercise in moderation will slow down the aches & pains. 4. Don’t worry about dying. The world is coming to an end anyway.
With Massive fires and storms, killer viruses, heinous leaders, hateful people…it’s almost over anyway. Some people say I’m a pessimist. But reality is what it is. Reach for all the gusto you can grasp and enjoy every minute of it, aging is inevitable. While you may gather a few more wrinkles and your body will change, the really great part of aging is that you no longer give a sh*t about what others think. It is so incredibly freeing. Just get out there and live your life like nobody is watching, because who gives a damn what other people think.
Do my words of “wisdom” help any?
Lauren Bacall was once asked at age 65 (approx.) would she like to be 25 again. Her answer: “Only if I can take my 65 yr old brain with me!” Being 60 is absolutely wonderful! You begin to not care what people think of you. You get more and more comfortable in your own skin and body. It’s great! Lean into life experiences, and ignore the haters! Age is just a number. Take chances, follow your heart, live each day at a time. Sounds like good advice and is, just don’t get bogged down in the numbers. Just try to enjoy each day. Some are better than others. That’s just life. Good Grief I could go on, but hey, you either fold the tent and go home or have fun. Your choice. Age It is just a number. With getting older comes some amazing surprises. You gain more confidence than you ever had before and learn to enjoy doing the things that make you happy, not trying to please other people.. Try to remind yourself that it’s the natural order of life and everyone goes through it. You can waste a lot of time, money & energy focusing on trying to turn back the clock – pointlessly! Feeling bad about your age means having a good cry and self wallow for a day or two, then pick yourself up and get on with life
Words of wisdom… There are many who don’t have the privilege of getting older?
The best way to feel good about getting older is by using your time well. Love your family, love your friends, help people when you can, never stop learning, and laugh a lot! It’s not the age, it’s your outlook, be happy with yourself. Pick an age when you were your happiest, then emulate yourself to that age. For example, I’m 60, but in my mind I’m still 35 and You won’t notice a difference initially, but you will gradually feel and even somewhat look that age. Age is just a number! How do you feel on the inside, how you see yourself doing the things you did a year ago, what you’re going to do a year from now, that’s what’s important and defines your true age.
Enjoy your age – Enjoy the journey – it’s all you have is now. Also don’t let people tell you what you can no longer do or what is no longer appropriate. If you can still do it, then it’s appropriate. I no longer cared what people thought of me. It was so freaking empowering. Embrace it. Be who you are without apologies or excuses. Be Flawsome: AGE just Embrace it. Stay active. Take care of yourself so you continue to feel good. Keep your sense of humor and you’ll age beautifully. We all grow older, but remember that the wisdom and the don’t give AF attitude that comes with each decade is earned and well deserved. Keep doing what makes you happy. Look back at anything you thought you would do when you were younger and decide why you haven’t done it. I changed over time and decided I couldn’t go back to who I was. And I Couldn’t be happier with that choice!
I learned that age is meaningless, and it’s just a number.
I also learned that people telling me I was too old to try new things and have new adventures were wrong, and often scared themselves so they tried to hold you back. I know Live your life fully, no matter the number of years you’ve been around. I found the old saying “Life begins at 40” to be true in my case. My 40’s and 50’s were my most productive years. But your 20’s and 30’s are training ground for the confident and self aware person you become. Enjoy! Aging in our society sucks. You only get one life – don’t short change yourself. I lived my life on the fast lane. So I don’t feel sorry for myself because I’m getting older. Instead, I am thankful I have made it to sixty years and that I am still here. Life’s what you make it and age is just a number. We all must get older, So wear it proudly, and know someone is always still older. Take pride in the fact that all do not age gracefully but that you can control how others see you. You’ll find that you’re more selective about your friends; that you know how to survive tough times; that you really do have wisdom — etc. I looked at the big picture. In your 20s you are messing up and learning. then in your 30s we are for fixing the mess ups. Your 40s are whatever you want them to be! And your 50s were life adjustments…. So Be glad you made it through to 60. The 40s were my favorite decade. Old and mature enough to be secure in myself, young enough to enjoy it and with no aches and pains free enough to not care about others’ judgments. Not that I was doing anything crazy, just living my authentic life. Enjoy, don’t let a number get you down!
Sixty is not written on my forehead, or on the clothes I wear! I am still me, but just with more experience and wisdom! Just Go with it and if you look after yourself, you’ll look as good as you do today at 70. while feeling better now than I was ten years ago, stay active and do physical work every day. Somedays you may not feel like doing it but do it anyways. It’s a proven fact that those that get 150 minutes of exercise per week live longer -so work out four times a week. After your 50’s you should ask yourself and make the decision on whether you are going to get old or fight back. As you age: You’ll come to appreciate life more the closer you get to its end. So worry not. Enjoy your time while you can. Live every day like it’s your last. The best and worst things are the same: you really come into your own because you don’t give a shit what others think. The real you comes out and you become more cherished. So Love Life!!!
Words of wisdom: The years will seem shorter each year that you turn older as your metabolism flowers. Fill those years with good memories, because those are the things that fill your mind when you’re hitting your 80’s – if you live that long. You should be smiling every single day! Just wait until you hit 60, then you can blog about how you are feeling every single day above ground should be a great day in my blog!
Hmmm, what’s bugging you about getting older? Is your body still truckin’ along- Do you feel grounded? Do you appreciate the power of the wisdom that comes with experience? Do you appreciate the freedom of not always having to put other people’s needs before your own?
I read a great piece of advice under a Snapple cap several years ago (yes, Snapple…. I’m obvs a deep thinker).The saying was…. “Never complain about getting old, it is a privilege denied to many”. One of the good things about getting older is you know who you are and have a better sense of your limitations, and are more accepting of them. With age, I’ve learned to truly appreciate the little things, and find joy with them. Sounds trite I know, but it’s true. Age is just a number, don’t let a number get you down, it has no meaning… All it really means is you went around the sun 40 times. Be who you want to be, do what you want to do, and when you realize your best years are still ahead of you. You will discover the talented, resilient, resourceful person behind the face you see in the mirror every day. Step away from the mirror and find your true self. Everything only gets better from there…..Sorry I couldn’t help myself… Trust me… Enjoy your life while you can…. or you will miss out as 60 rolls around…. as you get used to being in pain…. Everywhere…. Most of the time… Nothing is different from yesterday to today except a number and that doesn’t change who you are. Focus on all your positive qualities and progress through not a numbered age.
You’re amazing and you got this. Prepare for your interior filter to die. I found that I no longer held my tongue. About anything. There is a liberation at realizing age *really is* just a number. Throw off the expectations others foist upon you about age. You are free to be whomever the fuck you want to be. Turning 40 was hard for me, too, but when I turned 50, I began the thought process of blogging. I didn’t even know how to type. Learning That Nothing is impossible no matter what “number” you are. NOW at 60 and my advice to you is to remember that age is just a record of the number of days lived, not the life lived. Don’t let the number dictate anything; live for the memories you have yet to make.
I repeat that aging is the cost of BEING ALIVE. Or would you prefer the alternative?
Every day has challenges. It’s how you approach them that makes the difference! You’ve got a long way to go until 70, and by then you won’t care enough to cry. Relish being older and wiser. Relish the miracles around you and your ability to keep learning and loving. The best is yet to come. Getting older is a gift. So many don’t get to live a long life and watch their children grow into who they are and friends/family reach lifetime goals. And I found as I got older I learned that I no longer cared what other people thought about my choices. I felt so much freer! Strength training, intermittent fasting and autophagy for optimal cellular health. Start now and preserve your beauty and health for the future – you won’t regret it.
Words of wisdom, enjoy it now, Life goes unbelievably fast – with long days and short years. With the next thing you know you’re wondering where the years went. Keep a youthful mindset, and each day will be better than the last! You’re just getting started! Even in this Covid-19 Civil Unrest nightmare we’re living in today. I enjoy the hell out of my life. Therefore, don’t fall for the lies about getting older. Get enough sleep + exercise and cut out the junk food. Develop healthy habits and stick to them. You will be glad you did once a couple more decades slip by. Enjoy your interests and don’t sweat the small stuff, seriously. It’s up to you how you feel about getting older.
New wisdom will creep in…SO share it. Embrace it! AGE You can’t stop it, SO you might as well embrace it. I’m older, freaks me out but the women who deny it, look stupid. I just don’t like creepy skin but it is better than dead. I can still ski, hike, yoga, fuck, embrace. It’s all good. Gird your loins, take your lessons ahead as an “education”, instead of a punishment , and learn to accept all the skeletons in your closet, bring them out to the light and by all means make friends. They will serve you at some point. Lol
Why do we measure years in 365 days, when that’s limiting your life – celebrate the cycles and seasons as you celebrate the years. Celebrate what you have learned and your accomplishments along the way – buckle up buttercup: You’re as young as you’ll ever be again! Embrace your life! Enjoy every moment! Live each day like it’s your last because you never know. If you are talking about your outer physical shell, enjoy your 40’s! As you will lament how good you looked …. when your hormones dried you out in your 60’s. For your internal mental self, it gets better & better, thou you still have to make peace w/ that aging external shell. It’s just a number. Despite the world going to hell in a handbasket, life is still really good. Every decade brings new experiences. Just ride the wave & don’t waste precious time obsessing about your age. Be grateful you’re alive and healthy. Its Your Life Now quit whining and have a good day.
Coronavirus: Debunking The Hydroxychloroquine ‘Controversy’ (Dr. Chris Martenson) NEW HAVEN, Connecticut, August 25, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — An epidemiologist at Yale School of Public Health praised the proven benefits of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in fighting COVID-19, emphasizing at the same time that opponents of HCQ have no science to back them up. “I conclude the evidence is overwhelming,” Harvey A. Risch told host Mark Levin during the latter’s Fox News show last Sunday: “There’s no question that in the people who need to be treated, and are treated early, [hydroxychloroquine] has a very substantial benefit in reducing risk of hospitalization or mortality.” Risch accused the opponents of HCQ use of being engaged in “a massive disinformation campaign that stretches from the government to the media, that’s either suppressing this message, or it’s countering it with a false message.” He admitted that he doesn’t know the exact reasons for this disinformation campaign but said later, “It’s an absurd situation that people have compared … to 1984 and the Ministry of Truth, and someone that’s limiting what people can say on objective facts. It’s beyond belief.” In reality, “the science is so one-sided in supporting this result that it’s stronger than anything else I’ve ever studied in my entire career,” said Risch. “The evidence in favor of hydroxychloroquine benefit in high-risk patients treated early as outpatients is stronger than anything else I’ve ever studied.”
Risch said most of the scientists working for the government, as well as their institutions, “cite studies that are of hospitalized patients, or they cite studies … that treat low risk patients. These are people under age 60 with no chronic conditions, and so on. People who will survive the virus just on their own, without treatment almost entirely.” On the other hand, Risch, and other scientists like him, emphasize the benefit of HCQ use in older people and those with other underlying conditions, who are at a higher risk of contracting COVID-19 and having a more severe progression of the virus. He explained that he was never contacted by Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and a key member of President Donald Trump’s coronavirus task force, to discuss how their understanding of the science differs. Risch admitted that some adverse effects can be measured in some people who take HCQ. “The medication itself has in some people, perhaps 10 percent of normal people — [it] can change the pacing of the heart muscle contractions, called the heart rhythm. That change has only measurement value. In other words, if you measure it on electrocardiogram, you can see it has essentially no bearing for almost everyone who has that, as to any risks for a real arrhythmia that has potentially life-threatening consequences.” Risch said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) “is a very strange organization that has a history of not making science-based, rational-based decisions about its approvals.” According to Risch, this started in 1987 with the FDA failing to approve of simply creating official guidance that doctors should consider using a certain antibiotic to potentially prevent HIV-positive people from contracting a specific type of pneumonia.
Instrumental at the time was Anthony Fauci, who became head of the NIAID in 1984. Fauci said in 1987 that he wanted “randomized controlled, blinded controlled trial evidence” as his “gold standard,” Risch recounted. Within two years, “17,000 people with AIDS died because of Dr. Fauci’s insistence on not allowing even a statement supporting consideration of the use” of the antibiotic. “Now we have Dr. Fauci denying that any evidence exists of benefit,” Risch continued, “and that’s pervaded the FDA. The FDA has relied on Dr. Fauci and his [National Institutes of Health] advisory groups to make a statement saying that there is no benefit of using hydroxychloroquine on outpatients. And this is counter to the facts of the case.” “It’s outrageous,” he concluded. “People need to be writing or calling their congressmen and senators and complaining that this is not the way the country should work.” “A bureaucracy that’s in bed with other forces that are causing them to make decisions that are not based on the science — that is killing Americans.”
Back in July, Sten H. Vermund, the dean of the Yale School of Public Health, defended Risch from criticism for findings that don’t correspond to mainstream opinion. “I have championed maintaining open academic discourse, including what some may view as unpopular voices. The tradition of academia is that faculty may do research, interpret their work, and disseminate their findings.” “If persons disagree with Dr. Risch’s review of the literature, it would be advisable to disseminate the alternative scientific interpretations, perhaps through letters or other publications with alternative viewpoints to the American Journal of Epidemiology, Newsweek, or other outlets,” he added. “My role as Dean is not to suppress the work of the faculty, but rather, to support the academic freedom of our faculty, whether it is in the mainstream of thinking or is contrarian.” Censorship, Coronavirus, Hydroxychloroquine, Modern Medicine Vitamin D, First clinical trial…
What is Hydroxychloroquine, and What Does It Do? According to the American College of Rheumatology, hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), is a “disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD),” meaning that it helps reduce the pain and swelling that come with arthritis. It can also reduce the incidence of joint damage, thus lessening the risk of developing a long-term disability from complications of RA. If you have rheumatoid arthritis, talking to your doctor about hydroxychloroquine may be the right choice for your needs. The medication is generally well-tolerated, and has even been found safe overall for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Hydroxychloroquine is a quinoline medicine used to treat or prevent malaria, a disease caused by parasites that enter the body through the bite of a mosquito. Malaria is common in areas such as Africa, South America, and Southern Asia.
How is This Medication Given? Generally, hydroxychloroquine is given in 200 mg or 400 mg doses, once per day. Higher doses can sometimes be used, but only in adults and not for all cases. Some people tolerate this medication much better than other people, so it is important that individuals who are considering taking hydroxychloroquine talk with their doctor about the lowest necessary dose to reduce or eliminate their symptoms. They should also discuss any side effects that may appear, and focus on what they should do if they experience problems when taking this medication for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis or another condition.
Does Hydroxychloroquine Have Side Effects? Like all medications, there is the risk of side effects. Fortunately, the problems seen by people taking this medication are usually very mild. Serious side effects are rare. Overall, most people who have any noticeable side effects from hydroxychloroquine experience diarrhea or nausea. These usually get better after the person adjusts to the medication, and taking the drug with food can help, as well. Additionally, some people experience anemia and vision changes or even vision loss, but this is quite rare. It’s more commonly seen with high doses for long periods, in older people, and in those who have kidney problems.
Are Drug Interactions a Concern? According to WebMD, in most cases, you don’t need to be worried about drug interactions when taking hydroxychloroquine. It has only a mild effect on the immune system, but you should still tell your doctors what you are taking. Even if you only take over-the-counter medications, let them know so they can help you make sure you won’t have an adverse reaction. You also want your medications to be effective, so being sure you’re taking them correctly and not mixing anything together that could be a problem is important. Hydroxychloroquine can be a great choice to reduce rheumatoid arthritis symptoms when taken correctly. And if this is true for Covid-19, then Trump was right and makes me wonder how much – Anthony Fauci & Bill Gates will gain monetarily from their vaccine.
What would Abraham Lincoln think of today’s Black Lives Matter Movement.
In this country having nothing to do with black lives really mattering, however, as A Marxist group trying to divide the country that he united 155 years ago for democratic political gain. Such people do not comprehend and cannot understand, for they have shut their eyes so they cannot see, and their minds so they cannot understand. ‘They know nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see, and their minds closed so they cannot understand’ Isaiah 44:18 If you’re an American History Buff (many aren’t in this day n’ age) which I had acquired from the owner of The Little Professor Book Store in Troy, Ohio. Shortly after I graduated from High School in 1978 and to celebrate my 40th Anniversary in 2018, I did finally make it out to all the Historical Sites in Springfield Illinois. But within that book store: I learned if we aren’t open to learning from our past mistakes we are bound to repeat them and from a bench outside Lincoln’s Library talking to a black guy telling me:,
“The Only Racism That we have in this country are those Individuals That Believes There Is.” As we talked about racism in this country which echoes in my head today with a 20/20 vision of the civil unrest this summer. He told me that if people put on a suit, they would quickly see that perception of them changes in other people’s eyes. Therefore, others won’t treat you like a street thug, punk or the group of counterfeiters from Chicago that tried to steal Lincoln’s body in 1870. YES Sir he said, “when you start acting respectful towards others and welcome them into your life with a smile …. your life changes rather quickly.
Perhaps, in Lincoln’s immortal words, we have not finished the work, but in the indomitable spirit we hear today the hallowed 272-word document Gettysburg Address, so the living, can be inspired from our past and all its memorials to renew our lives for what Abraham Lincoln dreamed and died for – that the United States of America can remain united, not divided and perish from the earth. Lincoln’s smart use of language also helped the address leave a lasting impression, which is the second lesson we learn: Use repetition and rhythm to emphasize and enhance speech. Notice how Lincoln uses the rule of threes on two separate occasions in his speech. First and foremost, the Gettysburg Address touched upon the key principles of democracy and “a new birth of freedom” (Elmore, 2009, 40). The speech addressed the idea of nation’s identity & integrity: “The metaphor of birth and rebirth an unifying metaphor of the Gettysburg Address.” Granted, there are lessons aplenty to be learned from Gettysburg: the disasters that can follow the failure to settle issues peacefully, the horrors – waste of warfare, and the tremendous sacrifices rendered to produce the results.
It’s the evening of April 14, 1865, and President Abraham Lincoln is sitting with his beloved wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, in their private box at Ford’s Theater in Washington D.C. The happy couple are engrossed in the performance of Our American Cousin that’s playing out below them – but fate has other plans. At 10:15 p.m., you see, a gunman named John Wilkes Booth creeps up behind the president and fires off a round into the back of his skull. Of course, this much most of us know, but it’s the true nature of Lincoln’s final words to Mary that has been fiercely contested throughout the years. Lincoln’s assassination actually came hot on the heels of a great victory. The devastating American Civil War had ended only five days earlier, after all. Yes, after the Battle of Appomattox Court House, Confederate General Robert E. Lee had surrendered his army to Union General Ulysses S. Grant. And Booth – the gunman – was a known Confederate sympathizer. So the assassination of Lincoln was part of a three-pronged attack on the U.S. government and was seemingly intended to resuscitate the cause. Booth had remained in the north during the conflict, despite the fact that the Confederacy was based in the south. In fact, he had pursued his acting career while the war raged for four bloody years. But after Lee surrendered his army, Booth – who had previously hatched a failed plan to kidnap Lincoln – conspired to commit a far more devastating act. So when Booth discovered that the Lincolns would be attending the theater that fateful night, he subsequently put his plan into action. He also enlisted co-conspirators to kill Secretary of State William H. Seward and Vice President Andrew Johnson – and these two assassinations should have happened as the actor pulled the trigger on Lincoln. Booth apparently believed, you see, that the murders of the president and his two potential successors would likely throw the country into chaos.
Booth felt that Lincoln’s presence in the theater gave him a unique opportunity to get close to the president. And as the former had years of acting experience, he had actually performed there several times himself – and was therefore familiar with the layout of the building. The thespian was also known to the staff and apparently used his connections to gain easier access to Lincoln’s private box. That evening, Lincoln and his wife were in their box above the stage with army officer Henry Rathbone and his fiancé Clara Harris – the latter being New York senator Ira Harris’ daughter. However, Lincoln and his group had arrived late to the theater. So in response, the orchestra momentarily halted proceedings to play “Hail to the Chief,” and all 1,700 patrons got to their feet to applaud. The president wasn’t without security at the event. In fact, a police officer named John Frederick Parker had been assigned the duty of protecting the president’s private box. During the play’s intermission, however, the officer accompanied Lincoln’s coachman and footman to a local watering hole. This left the box unguarded – meaning Booth was able to slip in easily and bar the door behind him to prevent anyone from escaping.
Booth knew the play well, and he timed his attack to coincide with a particularly funny line uttered by actor Harry Hawk. Lincoln was reportedly laughing when Booth snuck up behind him and shot him behind his left ear. The actor used a single-shot .44-caliber derringer pistol, and the bullet passed through Lincoln’s brain – fracturing both orbital plates. Rathbone turned to see Booth standing over the fallen president and immediately rushed him. However, the young army officer was stabbed in the left forearm in the struggle. Booth then jumped the 12-foot drop from the box to the stage, but he landed badly and hurt his left foot in the process. The actor then reportedly held his bloody knife above his head and addressed the audience. At this point, most of the people in attendance thought the commotion was simply part of the performance. It’s generally accepted that Booth yelled, “Sic semper tyrannis!” This is the Virginia state motto and means, “Thus always to tyrants!” The assassin then ran across the stage toward an exit door, stabbing the orchestra leader William Withers Jr. en’ route. And after Booth escaped from the theater, he mounted a horse that he had positioned in the alleyway ahead of time. He rode off into the Washington night and soon became the subject of an exhaustive manhunt.
The Petersen House (House Where Lincoln Died) at 516 10th street was the home of William and Anna Petersen. On the night of April 14, 1865 the mortally wounded president was carried to a back bedroom in this house. The Petersen family aided as they could, although on this night their home was no longer their own. Over 90 people would come and go through the house to pay their last respects to the dying president. Soldiers stood guard at the front door and were posted on the roof to keep the crowds at bay. While doctors cared for the president the Petersen family and some of the boarders spent the night in the basement. At 7:22 am, April 15, 1865, Abraham Lincoln died in the back bedroom of this humble house
Booth’s motivation for slaying the president may still seem unclear, but it was firmly rooted in the role Lincoln played during the American Civil War. You see, the infamous murder can be traced back to the president’s actions during the conflict – and one in particular set Booth on edge. As the conflict played out between two opposing forces known as the Union and the Confederacy. Union referred to the United States of America – or more specifically, the 20 free states and four border ones where slavery was either illegal or in the process of being phased out. These regions included Washington, D.C., New York, California, Michigan, Illinois and Pennsylvania. Conversely, the Confederate States of America was formed by the seven states in the lower south of the country whose inhabitants largely didn’t want slavery to be abolished. So as a result, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Alabama, Texas, Georgia and Louisiana seceded from the union and became an unrecognized republic. And in particular, the Confederacy believed slavery was threatened by then-presidential candidate Lincoln. He had run on a platform opposing its expansion into the western part of the country, you see.
Yes, although Lincoln was not an abolitionist, he did believe that slavery was morally wrong and questioned the protections it had been awarded in the Constitution of the United States. And in a three-hour speech in 1854 Lincoln admitted that he didn’t know precisely what the right course of action was regarding slavery. In 1858 – during a debate with his opponent Stephen Douglas in the Illinois race for the U.S. Senate – Lincoln was accused of supporting “negro equality.” And according to History.com, the future president responded, “I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races.” Furthermore, he went on to argue that African-Americans shouldn’t have the right to vote, hold office, serve on juries or marry white people. Lincoln believed, however, that African-Americans had the right to improve their societal position through hard work and enjoy the benefits of their labor. And according to the future president, as slavery made this kind of advancement in society impossible, the institution was morally wrong. But Lincoln’s views regarding racial equality would grow and evolve over the course of his time in office. On April 11, 1865, for instance – the date of the last speech that he ever gave – he argued that any black man who had served the Union during the Civil War should be granted the right to vote. And this stance seemingly indicates that the president’s position had changed somewhat from the Senate debate seven years earlier.
Lincoln’s position on race has been viewed differently by successive generations, too. After all, even though he successfully freed the slaves, he still held opinions that many today would consider to be problematic. In 2009, The Root’s editor-in-chief Henry Louis Gates Jr. argued the president held some surprisingly liberal opinions for that period, though. He said, “By the standards of his time, Lincoln’s views on race and equality were progressive and truly changed minds, policy and – most importantly – hearts for years to come.” But what of Lincoln’s assassin? Well, Booth came from a prominent family of actors in Maryland. His father, Junius Brutus, and his brothers, Edwin and Junius Brutus Jr., all worked in the trade, and Booth followed in their footsteps. And by the end of the 1850s, he was a genuinely wealthy and famous actor – earning the equivalent of around $570,000 today. Before the American Civil War began, in fact, Booth was held in high esteem as an actor in the southern states. However, during the conflict, he chose to remain in the north and reportedly grew angry when audiences didn’t react to him as well as they had back home. Booth held strong political views, too, as he had a fiercely outspoken hatred of abolitionists and Lincoln – a loathing that even some members of his family didn’t share. For instance, Booth apparently didn’t see eye to eye with his brother Edwin during the war. Edwin did not share his siblings’ public support of slavery, for one, and he even refused to perform in their native south. But Booth’s condemnation of the Union was so severe that he was arrested in St. Louis in 1863 and charged with “treasonous” remarks. This came, according to several reports, after he was heard saying he wished that “the president and the whole damn government would go to hell.” So these extreme differences in political opinion meant that eventually Edwin told Booth that he was not welcome in his home anymore. Yes, apparently the actor’s hatred of Lincoln had only become more intense over time. And according to Asia Booth Clarke’s book John Wilkes Booth: A Sister’s Memoir, he had told her, “That man’s appearance… and his policy are a disgrace to the seat he holds. He is made the tool of the north to crush out slavery.”
In a cruel twist of fate, though, President Lincoln may have actually been a fan of Booth. It was known that the president had watched him perform in several plays. And fellow actor Frank Mordaunt even corroborated a claim that Lincoln had invited Booth to visit him at the White House. But the actor reportedly turned down the invitation, and according to the website Civil War Saga, he apparently told his friends, “I would rather have the applause of a negro to that of the president.” Yet as Lincoln was doubtless unaware of how April 14 would end, he had begun the day with a cabinet meeting. The topics were the treatment of the defeated Confederate leaders as well as the nature of any economic aid that was to be offered to the south. And the president then had lunch with his wife, Mary Todd, before engaging in more meetings – including one with a former slave called Nancy Bushrod.
Afterwards, Lincoln indulged in an afternoon carriage ride with his spouse. Later that night, the Lincolns’ carriage picked up army officer Rathbone and his fiancé Harris at her father’s home, and the four subsequently made their way to the theater. After the stirring rendition of “Hail to the Chief,” everyone took their seats, and Mary apparently flirted with her husband as she held his hand. And according to Stephen Mansfield’s book Lincoln’s Battle with God, she asked, “What will Miss Harris think of my hanging on to you so?” Mansfield added that Lincoln’s wife Mary had something of a reputation for being fiercely jealous. She would apparently scream at any woman who dared to walk near her husband, for instance. But this jealousy seemingly didn’t rear its head in the theater, and Lincoln apparently replied, “Why, she will think nothing of it.” For many years, these were traditionally believed to have been Lincoln’s last words. But in 1882 a friend of the family named Reverend N.M. Miner claimed that Mary had told him her husband’s final words were quite different. Miner wrote about this revelation in a lecture entitled “Personal Reminiscences of Abraham Lincoln.”
And Mansfield wrote that Lincoln told his wife that following the war they would “not return immediately to Springfield.” This is no doubt a reference to where the family had lived before he became president. According to the author, Lincoln continued, “We will go abroad among strangers where I can rest.” He then leaned in closely to Mary and whispered his next words. “We will visit the Holy Land,” Lincoln apparently declared. “We will visit the Holy Land and see those places hallowed by the footsteps of the Savior. There is no place I so much desire to see as Jerusalem.” The bullet fired by Booth then did its terrible work, and Lincoln subsequently succumbed to his injuries the next morning at 7:22 a.m. In his book, Mansfield acknowledged that these final words – which allude to a deep faith – are often not included in works concerning Lincoln’s assassination. The author said, “It is natural that some should doubt. Schoolchildren do not learn them as they do the other facts of Lincoln’s life.” Mansfield then argued that Lincoln’s last words are likely omitted from most historical accounts because of the hesitancy of scholars to declare him to be a religious man. He added, “Lincoln was, after all, a religious oddity. He never joined a church. In fact, he went through periods in his life when he was openly anti-religion – even anti-God.”
And the author went on, “Surely, critics will say, to insist that these words are true, or that they are any reflection of Lincoln’s faith, is part of a religious re-working of his life – part of a misguided attempt by the pious to refashion him into a gleaming religious icon of some imagined national religion.” Mansfield continued, “Surely this is the fruit of bad research and pitiful scholarship: more myth than history.” Mansfield also argued that prominent Lincoln scholars over the years have attested to the validity of these words – in spite of criticism. After all, it was the president’s wife herself who had apparently relayed the words to Reverend Miner. And as a result, the prominent Lincoln scholars such as Allen C. Guelzo, Wayne Temple and Doris Kearns Goodwin apparently regard them as the truth. Dr. James Cornelius is the curator of the Lincoln Collection at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library in Springfield, Illinois, and he has referred to Mary’s account of her husband’s last words. He said, “We believe [them] to be substantiated.” Perhaps this really was the last thing that Lincoln said. And, if this is true, it highlights his complicated views regarding religion.
Lincoln’s Last Words Stephen Mansfield, details “the final, surprising words of Abraham Lincoln,” spoken to his wife immediately prior to his assassination at Ford’s Theater: “We will visit the Holy Land and see those places hallowed by the footsteps of the Savior. There is no place I so much desire to see as Jerusalem.” For a president whose words are so studied, why aren’t these last statements better known? The words are rarely included in accounts of Lincoln’s assassination. Schoolchildren do not learn them as they do the other facts of Lincoln’s life. Indeed, the sentiments are too religious for most teachers to dare include in their lessons. Scholars tend to exclude this episode also, usually because of a similar hesitation about religion. It is understandable. Lincoln was, after all, a religious oddity. He never joined a church. In fact, he went through periods in his life when he was openly antireligion—even anti-God. In his later years, he spoke often of God but rarely of Jesus Christ. That he was attending a bawdy play on Good Friday—the day Christians set aside to contemplate the crucifixion of their Savior—seems perfectly consistent with the image of Lincoln that has come to us through the years. It is reasonable to doubt that he would call Christ the Savior and declare himself eager to see the Holy Land in the last moments of his life.
>> But what happened in the aftermath of Lincoln uttering his last words and passing away the next morning? Well, his body was put in a temporary casket that was draped in the American flag. The cadaver was then taken by an armed escort to the White House. Here, an autopsy was conducted, and Mary reportedly requested that a lock of her husband’s hair be removed for her to keep. The nation went into mourning, too. By the end of the day of Lincoln’s death, for instance, flags all across the country were flying at half-mast and businesses shut down. And when his body was taken by train to Springfield, Illinois, tens of thousands stood by the railroad route – waiting to pay their final respects to the fallen president. Lincoln was buried at Oak Ridge Cemetery alongside his son William Wallace Lincoln, who had died of typhoid fever three years earlier. And Mary, for her part, was apparently so consumed by grief after losing her husband that she retreated to her bed for weeks. She didn’t attend the funeral and was soon looked down upon by society due to her vocal mourning. Unfortunately for Mary, women of her high position in society were expected to maintain their composure in public – even during times of grief. Instead of suppressing her emotions, however, Mary displayed them for all to see. A number of modern scholars now believe that she may have been bipolar, but her contemporaries simply ostracized her.
As for John Wilkes Booth, he was found hiding in a Maryland barn after a 12-day manhunt. But he remained inside, even after Union soldiers set the structure on fire to draw him out. Booth was eventually shot in the neck and dragged into the open – where he died three hours later. Four of his co-conspirators were later hanged, too, for their involvement in Lincoln’s assassination. Sadly, because of Booth’s actions, the president never got to complete his mission in life … see Jerusalem – and we’ll never know what actually would have greeted him upon his death. https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/abraham-lincoln-quotes After Mary returned to Illinois she had but yet another tragedy to overcome and the death of her youngest son Thomas in 1871, and she fell into a deep depression. Her sole surviving son, Robert, brought her to court on charges of insanity in 1875. He claimed that her distorted view of her finances and fears for her own safety were signs of mental illness. The court sided with Robert, and Mary was committed to an insane asylum outside of Chicago. She was released several months later, but the incident caused her to become estranged from her son. It also left her with a lasting public perception of her as being crazy.
The Final Years In 1876, Mary regained control over her property after a court found her to be of sound mind. She feared that her son might try again to institutionalize her again and chose to live abroad. In 1881, Lincoln returned to the United States, choosing to live with her sister Elizabeth in Springfield, Illinois. She died of a stroke there on July 16, 1882, at the age of 63. Historians have debated many aspects of Mary’s character over the years, including her sanity. She definitely had a high-strung personality and an interest in some off-beat ideas, but she also showed herself to possess a keen mind and wit.

Why are Some Countries Harder Hit? Interesting Data and Insights! PRAGUE (Reuters) – September 1, 2020. As the Czech government banned all passengers without face protection from public transport to slow the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), The Czech Republic reported 650 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday, its highest number for a single day since the start of the coronavirus pandemic as infections gathered speed amid relaxed government restrictions. Also The latest cases, recorded by the Health Ministry over the previous 24 hours, took the overall number of cases reported since March to 25,773 in the country of 10.7 million. The Czech Republic has registered 425 deaths associated with COVID-19, a lower toll than many of its fellow European Union member states. On five days since Aug. 26, there have been more new cases than on any day during the first wave of the pandemic. Daily increases per population size were mostly in multiples of those in neighboring Germany in the past days. The government has put emphasis on the low number of COVID-19 patients in hospitals – 172 as of Wednesday evening, including 40 serious cases – as a sign that the health system was not being overwhelmed. The spread of infections has been illustrated by sports teams cancelling games due to cases in their ranks, and by infections hitting government departments.
Foreign Minister Tomas Petricek and Labor and Minister Jana Malacova said on Twitter on Thursday they were self-isolating after positive tests among people they had met. They followed Health Minister Adam Vojtech who started isolating on Wednesday after the country’s chief public health officer, Jarmila Razova, tested positive for the coronavirus. The minister tested negative. Industry Minister Karel Havlicek was also self-isolating. The Czech government was among the first to shut down much of the retail trade and travel in March, putting a brake on the epidemic. But it was quick to reopen and has declared it was not planning any nation-wide restrictions that would choke the economy.

A study from Spain finally presents the first clinical evidence for the use of vitamin D to treat Covid-19. The study, “Effect of Calcifediol Treatment and best Available Therapy versus best Available Therapy on Intensive Care Unit Admission and Mortality Among Patients Hospitalized for COVID-19: A Pilot Randomized Clinical study,” was published in The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology on 29 August. It’s called a pilot because the sample size is still small, but it’s randomization and prospective design still make it robust research.
What the study did and found: Researchers randomly allocated 76 confirmed cases of Covid-19 into either oral calcifediol (50 patients) or no-calcifediol control (26 %) groups on the day of the hospital admission. Oral calcifediol was given at high doses at 0.532 mg on the first day and then at 0.266 mg on the third and seventh day, and then weekly until discharge or admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Calcifediol, also called 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, is the main metabolite (effector) of vitamin D3. All patients also received the best available standard care at that time, which was hydroxychloroquine plus azithromycin. Note that this study was conducted a few months ago when hydroxychloroquine has not yet been proven as ineffective for Covid-19, the study authors admitted. Results revealed that 13 out of 26 patients (50%) in the control group were admitted to ICU, and two died in the end. In the calcifediol group, only one out of 50 (2%) required ICU admission, and none died.

At least 7,000 health workers worldwide have died after being infected with the coronavirus, including more than 1,300 in Mexico alone, the most for any country, Amnesty International said Thursday. As colleges and universities return for in-person classes, all eyes have been on whether communal learning will lead to COVID-19 outbreaks. The answer is clear in at least one state. “More than 7,000 college-age people in Missouri have tested positive for the coronavirus since classes resumed in mid-August. Fueling spikes in confirmed cases in the state’s college towns,” said Gov. Mike Parson, reports the AP. “Recent single-day positive test rates in some college towns have been as high as 45% for people in the 18-24 age group, Parson said. That’s more than eight times the national positivity rate of 5.5% for people of all ages..”
100-Year-Old Couple, Together 82 Years, Dies From Coronavirus 2 Weeks Apart… Larry and Vicki Freda died from the coronavirus two days after losing their son John to the virus.
While 90% of #COVID19 tests negative. Couple this truth with the truth that only 6% of people who are classified as having had COVID-19 and have comorbidities (other health issues.) Heart Disease and cancer death rates are down significantly in 2020.
What Does This 6% actually mean:
According to the CDC website, only 6% of all covid-19 deaths in the US are attributed only to covid, everyone else had 2-3 other serious health problems. I love all the proclaimed coronavirus deaths. 6% of them died only from covid-19. So the new number is less than 10,000 that have died from covid-19 in the United States. Meaning You won’t get #coronavirus The number 6 is an angel number which signifies responsibility and service. This responsibility and service need to be achieved through love, care, and delicacy. Angel number 6 brings peace and harmony to people who come across it. The truth to all the experiences in life will be disclosed by number 6. It is mostly seen in the darkest of time in our lives when we need light more than ever. Do you understand the meaning associated with number six? All numbers carry meaning, but number 6 represents a very specific message related to responsibility. Your angels are contacting you for a reason, and we suggest that you listen. Your Guardian Angel can help you learn how to understand the meanings to improve your angelic communication abilities.
We are obviously victims of over-inflation of the severity of COVID19. Being itsLabor Day weekend, the U.S. coronavirus caseload is nearly double what it was during Memorial Day weekend. The virus has killed more than 187,000 Americans, according to Johns Hopkins University, and one widely used model predicts the death toll could reach 410,000 by the end of the year in the United States and 3,000,000 world wide. Health experts advise it’s still a good idea for anyone heading to the beach this holiday weekend to wear a mask, especially if it’s crowded. Health officials warn Labor Day weekend could ignite new spike in coronavirus cases.
Some states across the country have been loosening restrictions. In New Jersey on Friday, restaurants were allowed to have indoor dining for the first time in six months, but at 25% capacity. At the Wonder Bar in Asbury Park, manager Debbie DeLisa said tables and chairs have been set 6 feet apart in preparation of their first inside diners since March. “We try to be really safe when we set up our tables in here,” said DeLisa. “I think that the whole stigma of people being afraid to be indoors is sort of calming down right now.” However, she said indoor dining might not be enough. When asked how the coronavirus has impacted the bar financially, DeLisa responded, “It’s impacted it severely. The numbers are astronomical of what we’re going to lose this year.” As some restrictions loosen, health officials worry less social distancing will lead to more outbreaks at large gatherings – like the August motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, which is now linked to nearly 300 cases and at least one death. “This virus tends to spread in clusters.
Outbreak at weddings is linked to 147 Covid-19 cases and three deaths. What that means is if there are a large group of people together, then a large number of them can become infected,” said Harvard epidemiologist Dr. Bill Hanage. “We would expect the holiday weekend to produce at least a few of those.” Two weeks ago, eight states were reporting increases in average new cases, and now 27 states are reporting increases in average new cases. COVID-19 cases are growing nationwide: nearly four times the number of states are reporting increases compared to two weeks ago. There’s also confusion over when a vaccine will be available, after the Centers for Disease Control told states to prepare for distribution as soon as late October. Two Trump administration officials are now saying that may be ambitious. “I think it’s extremely unlikely but not impossible, and therefore it’s the right thing to do – is to be prepared in case,” said chief adviser of Operation Warp Speed Dr. Moncef Slaoui. Meanwhile, a new poll shows almost half of Americans say they won’t get a COVID-19 vaccine when it’s first available, and almost one in four say they never want it.
There was some positive economic news on Friday, but it comes with a caveat. The U.S. unemployment rate fell sharply in August to 8.4% from the 10.2% reported the previous month. Economists said part of the sharp drop is because businesses are recalling workers, not creating new jobs. I enjoy the wonder of life, bewildered by the magnificence of it all.

Here is a Fact about Face masks; They protect OTHERS from YOUR germs.
This claim: Authors of medical journal articles wrote that masks outside hospitals provide ‘little, if any’ protection.
A surgeon’s mask was never designed to prevent viral transmission, only to prevent bacterial infection to a patient during surgery and are Not effective for Covid 19. The N95 surgical mask only filters 3 micron bacteria, whereas, the corona virus is measured at 1.5 microns and is worthless for anybody that thinks they will protect you from breathing in a virus. So let me get this straight and be less confused, healthcare workers need them for dealing with those infected by wearing them for protection. But they don’t protect the general public who would wear them? That’s essentially what experts are not telling us. Masks for thee but not for we? All the cross contamination going on with the masks, and all the ignorance that comes with it, is just plain stupidity. If you’re coughing and or sneezing, wear one so you don’t spray aerosol on anyone, or better yet, stay home. Now the mask has become a messiah for some reason. Comments on @CDCgov‘s new recommendations on face coverings: Surgeon General Adams’ comments on face coverings!
Considerations for Wearing Masks:Help Slow the Spread of COVID-19… What a mask does is capture the respiratory fluids a person emits, preventing them from getting to where another person can inhale them. That’s why when you’re not wearing a mask, it makes those who wear one to protect YOU… so upset. When we catch onto the Copious data proving that masks worn by the public, along with sanitizing hands, is hugely protective. “Last year, a CDC study found that wearing face masks & washing hands with alcohol-based sanitizer cut down flu symptoms in a community by half.” https://www.livescience.com/amp/54078-hygiene-hypothesis.html When We first heard Covid-19 came ashore in Seattle. The first response of all agencies was SOCIAL DISTANCING. They then said that masks “can” help or “may” help. That’s the same as saying “it’s not likely to help.” You only get one chance at credibility to tell the truth. So I decided to jump into the Twitter world because I felt compelled learning the truth. Then we learned wearing masks may have been a bad move because the general public thought social distancing was no longer required. F.Y.I.surgical masks are designed to prevent germs being breathed OUT. When sick people wear surgical masks to protect others. When medical staff wear N95s its to prevent the germs from being breathed IN but they dispose of them properly after coming into contact with a Covid-19 patient. How many times does the Average Joe put on the same mask and it becomes a bigger death trap than the Atom Bomb in Alamogordo New Mexico…. if you wear one too long Carbon dioxide is good for trees, not people and breathing in too much – can make you deathly sick. And if people are getting sick from them it’s their own fault. You’re supposed to wash them or get new masks. #COVID19#coronavirus#WearAMask
As we go into autumn then winter our immune system will be less efficient because of cooler weather and a second wave with Dire COVID-19 death toll expected what can we do to help prevent us from getting the virus. #BePartofTheSolution It truly is a choice, stay silent and be thrown under the bus as fodder for an honor less man. There are a lot of wolves in sheep’s clothing out there. So Be VERY careful who you follow and look closely at those who are following you. If the companies that make the vaccines are protected from being sued. That in itself is enough reason not to take it! Experts at first stated it might take 18 months to test and approve a vaccine. There is no way you can test a vaccine this quickly. My feeling is that every single member of government and every corporate leader proposing a vaccine should line up and get it first. Then we will see the results first hand. They should take and be #PartOfTheSolution. And not make vaccines mandatory AT THE EXPENSE of the general population becoming sterilized or infertile (less babies in the world) or autistic! Vaccines may be the greatest advancement in modern medicine. They save millions of lives every year and millions more are saved from illness. Praying and hoping for an efficacious vaccine isn’t a plan. It’s a hail Mary pass and we need to move on to a more effective approach. Time to admit strategic mistakes were made at the get go. However, we do not need a vaccine. An enhanced immune system will do just fine at beating Covid-19. ~ Dr. Theresa Tam
HEAL YOUR GUT … Good bugs in your gut are good for your health.” They boost your immunity and protect against inflammation that can worsen coronavirus. When brewed correctly chicory root tastes a lot like coffee and it’s the number one source of inulin, a fiber that feeds your guts good bacteria. In an American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study, these inulin – rich foods ( artichoke, leeks, garlic or red onions) quadrupled friendly flora in two weeks. Don’t be surprised you lose weight. Don’t be surprised you lose weight and in the same study inulin rich foods left folks feeling 74% more satisfied. Also fermented foods like sauerkraut, pickles and kimchi snake in tasty doses of beneficial bacteria that produce a friendly fatty acid known as butyrate. The reason that is important: According to Swedish researchers reporting in the World Journal of Gastroenterology, butyrate lowers of gut inflammation by as much as 83 percent. Next time you want sweet tea, reach for Stevia, Dr. Vincent Pedre M.D., author of Happy Gut explains sugar and artificial sweeteners cause negative shifts in gut bacteria — and stevia doesn’t. Not only that but when diabetics switch to this sweetener they lower their blood sugar by 21%.
Step Outside: Stress suppresses beneficial gut bacteria, but as Dr. Pedre points out nothing fills the spirit and lowers stress hormone cortisol like connecting to the natural world. Research at Texas A&M University reveals that savoring the sights and sounds of nature can lower stress and tension in just 10 minutes by 87%. Therefore it’s important to take a brisk walk, ride a bicycle or simply by sitting outside in the sun while building adequate amounts of vitamin D that also helps boost your immunity. Your thyroid is that little gland in your neck that secretes the hormones responsible for regulating weight and energy along with body temperature, breathing, heart and brain function and so much more. “When the thyroid becomes sluggish, metabolism and just about everything else become sluggish,” explains Dr. Neal Barnard, author of Your Body in Balance: The New Science of Food, Hormones and Health. Unfortunately, thyroid problems are becoming very common with one reason the gland is easily attacked by our immune system.
“Antibodies that are supposed to hunt down viruses and other invaders can inadvertently attack your thyroid,” says Dr. Barnard. No one knows why this happens, but research suggests certain everyday foods are the culprits. European scientists used both blood tests and food logs to determine that adults with the most thyroid – attacking antibodies eat more animal fat, dairy, eggs, processed meat and oils. meanwhile those with the fewest dangerous antibodies eat more vegetables, beans, fruit, nuts and whole grains. Meanwhile research shows that animal foods trigger anti-inflammatory conditions inside us, while natural plant foods generally have the opposite effect. Having less inflammation seems to protect the thyroid and provides a host of other benefits, including reduced risk of everything from arthritis and skin aging to heart disease and cancer. On top of that, plant based foods have shown to significantly increase metabolism even while being lower in calories than animal foods, so people lose weight — and sometimes quite a lot of weight — without skimping on portions.

Despite decades of thyroid meds and diets, being tired and overweight was normal, recalls Nancy Matthews who is 57 years old. Her liver, cholesterol and blood pressure were bad. She was a wreck with PCOS, migraines and rosacea. A documentary inspired the California grandmother to try an oil-free, plant-based approach. As she tucked in oatmeal, stews and tacos and ate when she was hungry and until she was full.

Before Starting back blogging about cancer after labor day — thought I would type out a few thoughts for Labor Day Weekend.
The two presidents that shared low approval ratings and a penchant for ad hominem attacks on political enemies. (Presently Trump’s Approval Rating has climbed back to 51% since May 3rd when it stood at 39% when he was being blamed for his Covid-19 response.)
When President Harry S. Truman left office in January 1953, most Americans were glad to see him go. Since the introduction of presidential approval ratings, Truman’s 32% rating was the lowest for any departing president except for that of Richard Nixon, who 21 years later resigned amid the Watergate scandal. Americans were tired of five consecutive — Democratic presidential terms.
The Depression and World War II were both over, and people wanted a different sort of leadership that could jump-start the economy. The outsider Truman had been an accidental president to begin with. When an ailing President Franklin D. Roosevelt ran for an unprecedented fourth term in 1944, worried Democrat insiders panicked. They feared that far-left-wing Vice President Henry Wallace might end up As President if Roosevelt died in office.
Party pros replaced Wallace with the obscure Truman, a Missouri senator. They assumed that if worse came to worst, the non-entity Truman would be a token caretaker president. (Much Like Some Americans are concerned about Kamala Harris taking over for Joe Biden.) Earlier, Truman had been immersed in scandal, owing to his ties to corrupt Kansas City political boss Tom Pendergast.
When Truman took office after Roosevelt’s death in April 1945, he knew relatively nothing about the grand strategy of World War II. No one had told him anything about the ongoing atomic-bomb project.
But for the next seven-plus years, Truman shocked the country. * Over the objections of many in his cabinet, he ordered the dropping of two atomic bombs on Japan.
*Over the objections of most of the State Department, he recognized the new state of Israel.
* Over the objections of the Roosevelt holdovers, he broke with wartime ally the Soviet Union and crafted the foundations of Cold War Communist containment.
* Over the objections of many in the Pentagon, he integrated the armed forces.
* Over the objections of some of his advisers, he sent troops to the Korean Peninsula to save South Korea from North Korean invasion.
* Over the objections of civil libertarians, he created the CIA.
* Over the objections of most Americans, he relieved controversial five-star general and American hero Douglas MacArthur of his duties.
* Naturally, there were widespread calls in the press for Truman to resign and spare the country any more humiliation.
Truman swore. He had nightly drinks and played poker with cronies. And he shocked aides and the public with his vulgarity and crass attacks on political enemies. Truman mocked the widely respected Senator William Fulbright as “Half-bright.”
In the pre-Twitter age, Truman could not keep his mouth shut. When a reviewer for the Washington Post trashed Truman’s daughter’s concert performance, Truman physically threatened him.
“It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful,” Truman wrote in a letter to critic Paul Hume. “Someday I hope to meet you. When that happens, you’ll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below!”
Truman trashed national icons — including the military that had just won World War II. He reportedly said of MacArthur’s firing: “I didn’t fire him because he was a dumb son of a bitch although he was, but that’s not against the law for generals. If it was, half to three-quarters of them would be in jail.”
Truman was supposed to be slaughtered in the 1948 election. Roosevelt’s holdover New Dealers made fun of his Midwestern parochialism. Democrats had blown up the party during the 1948 nominating convention. Left-wingers, who could not stomach Truman, broke off and supported the progressive Henry Wallace as a third-party candidate. Democratic segregationists, who hated Truman’s military integration order, ran Senator Strom Thurmond as a fourth-party Dixiecrat alternative. Thurmond promised to keep the South racially segregated.
In the general election, polls predicted an easy win for Republican challenger Thomas Dewey. Instead, Truman won by a comfortable margin. With Truman’s second term due to expire, Democrats forgot his “the buck stops here” pragmatism. Instead, they returned to elite progressivism and nominated Adlai Stevenson, a liberal’s liberal.
Stevenson lost both the 1952 and 1956 elections to General Dwight Eisenhower, a national icon. For all his criticism of Truman, Ike governed more or less as Truman did.
It took a half-century for historians to concede that the feisty Truman had solid accomplishments, especially in foreign affairs. Even his vulgarity was eventually appreciated as integral to the image of “Give ’Em Hell” Harry. But if he’d had access to Twitter, or had a Robert Mueller to hound him, the loose-cannon Truman probably would have self-destructed in a flurry of ad hominem tweets.
An obsessed special prosecutor would have followed Truman’s checkered pre-presidential career all the way back to Kansas City to uncover likely unethical behavior.
Yet in the end, Truman proved successful because of what he did — and in spite of what he said.
Trump revises Truman’s ‘buck stops’ motto: President Harry Truman displayed a plaque on his desk that read, “The Buck Stops Here.” This phrase meant that, regardless of the circumstances, whatever happened during his term of office was his responsibility as president. If President Donald Trump had a similar plaque on his desk, it would read, “Whatever is Positive Stops Here; Anything Negative is Someone Else’s Fault.
”When asked why the inventory of masks, respirators, gowns and other medical supplies needed during the coronavirus pandemic was low at the federal level, Trump’s response was to blame someone else: in this case, President Barack Obama and his administration. When asked by a reporter during one of his many coronavirus news conferences about the lack of supplies, Trump’s response was that the shelves were empty when he took office.
That was a ridiculous comment.
But, even if the inventory was lacking — and I don’t think it was —Trump and his administration had three years to make up any deficits. Why wasn’t this done?
This goes to the heart of Trump’s refusal, early on, to take important steps to deal with the potential pandemic that was about to affect the world. He finally took action but, by that time, thousands were infected in our country. We are indebted to the medical professionals tirelessly working to save lives. Similarly, thank you to those keeping supply chains moving, particularly the food supply chain. Kudos to all who work from home.
However, Trump can’t be fully blamed for every state having had different outcomes; some Governors responded better than others. Despite the rioting in Portland Oregon. Governor Kate Brown had done an incredible job at keeping cases/death down in her state. Leading me to believe ‘really’ how contagious this pandemic can be if you’re outside.
That said, everybody should use personal responsibility. Everyone contributes: Observing stay-home orders and social distancing recommendations has impacted our local economy dramatically. The economic development council asks residents to support local businesses. Some remain open to walk-in customers and some are providing alternative services such as delivery and curbside pickup. Others are expanding online initiatives. All too many are shuttered, temporarily.
Order a take-out dinner from a local restaurant. Go to the local hardware store rather than a big-box enterprise. Purchase some gift cards or certificates to help local businesses with cash flow during these surreal times. Doing these things puts your money back into your community. Those who own, manage and work in these establishments are our neighbors and friends. Showing local support now will help speed the local recovery.
The “never Trumans” in the Democratic party were not much different from the Republicans’ never Trumpers, a group of neoconservatives who Trumpism has thrust into irrelevancy. In the election of 1948, Southern Democrats rallied around Dixiecrat and South Carolina Gov. Strom Thurmond, and Henry Wallace ran as a Progressive Party candidate.
So, how did Truman pull off the “miracle of ’48”? In the last three months of the campaign, he adopted an ingenious strategy of running against the “do-nothing Republican Congress.” He fled Washington by train on his “whistle blow” tour through the heartland. He pitted the social and financial concerns of blue-collar Americans, farmers and faith-based voters against the moneyed interests and deep-pocketed lobbyists on the East Coast. This, of course, led to the populist, “Give ’em hell, Harry” rallying cry of Middle America.
He warned voters that if they “stay at home” on Election Day, they would only “keep these reactionaries in power” and “deserve every blow you get.” Trump should borrow this strategy from Truman. There is no economic or political gain from swimming in the swamp and negotiating a “fiscal stimulus” bill with the Democrats that will be larded up with special interest spending. He should campaign against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s $three trillion monstrosity of a “stimulus” bill containing goody bags, paid for by taxpayers, to every liberal special interest group imaginable. That bill stimulates nothing but Pelosi’s contributor list — from teachers unions to environmental lobbyists to trial lawyers to government workers. Americans are disgusted by the opportunism of Democrats — that would dare use a public health crisis to fund union pensions, the National Symphony Orchestra and environmental justice grants, whatever those are. Trump is the modern-day Truman against a lifetime politician and his running mate, another lifetime politician — neither of whom have any business or job-creating experience. He could barnstorm around the country denouncing Democrat tax hikes and their obsession with issues such as climate change that would require strangling our energy industry. This would be cheered in China and Europe, but it would hobble America’s Midwestern industrial base and put millions of miners, drillers, truckers, construction workers and other hard hats in unemployment lines.
The Democrats have been apologists for the rioters, gangs, looters and anarchists who have burned down inner-city neighborhoods, harming the very minorities they say they want to help. Trump could win the election as the candidate of public safety alone. The most populist issue of all is to fully open the American economy in a safe and effective way to reduce unemployment and get American families a paycheck.
Democrats have defined themselves as the lockdown party.
Truman used to say: “I didn’t give them hell. I just told the truth, and they thought it was hell.” Trump’s special challenge is that, unlike Truman, he isn’t just up against a corrupt East Coast elite core of deep-state, deep-pocketed lobbyists and the wealthy social snobs who view Middle America as flyover country — He also must combat the bleed-blue media. Given how unpopular the media is today, he can even turn the bias and blinding hatred at places such as CNN from a liability into an asset by again running against the fake news industrial complex. All of this is to say that voters need to be reminded daily that the left doesn’t just disdain Trump but also disdains the values and pro-America principles of Trump voters. So its Time to rile up the “deplorables” once again, circa 1948 and 2016.

Look at this table, Ken. The most common comorbidities are pneumonia and respiratory arrest, which are caused by covid19. It is a lie to call them “pre-existing conditions”. Death rates in the United States have been going down, not up, since the beginning of the year. If you pay attention to the news, you might assume that record numbers of people are dying. The opposite is true. Not only has overall mortality for the United States been going steadily downward since January, but mortality has been substantially lower this year than last year. These are weekly mortality statistics for — the United States from the Centers for Disease Control:
The Virus is changing the world for the better while leaving a legacy promoting health and sustainability. Sickening watching this being turned around on TRUMP: for sake of political gain. When Trump announced it was going to happen. The bio weapon was infectious, but not particularly deadly to the otherwise healthy. Unless you listen to Television, in which case it was worse than Bubonic plague, which of course, is absurd. Of course then there’s New York City… And 11,000 died because animals like Cuomo put covid-19 patients in nursing homes. Scamdemic! It’s Criminal… Wake up America, this is about changing the American Way of Life! “A horrible Governor,” Trump tweeted of Cuomo early Tuesday, adding, Trump Attacks Cuomo, Claims He ‘Killed’ 11,000 People in nursing homes alone. Crooked & Incompetent!” Along with the tweet, Trump shared a post from far-right opinion website The Gateway Pundit which cited an Associated Press report that suggests the death toll due to COVID-19 in New York nursing homes was likely much higher than the 6,600 originally reported.
The AP suggests that based on federal data, roughly a fifth of the state’s homes reported resident deaths from early June to mid July — a tally that is 65 percent higher than the state’s count for that period. The Gateway Pundit appeared to apply this 65 percent margin to all deaths reported in New York nursing homes to arrive at a figure of nearly 11,000 deaths in the state’s nursing homes total. The comments come as the New York governor compared the coronavirus to the weakening of “America’s body politic” during a DNC speech Monday and called the Trump administration “incompetent.” “Americans learned a critical lesson — how vulnerable we are when we are divided and how many lives can be lost when our government is incompetent,” Cuomo said.
Although The Gateway Pundit has a penchant for conspiracies, there is legitimate room for criticism of Cuomo’s handling of nursing home deaths. But Trump’s finger-wagging at Cuomo over who holds responsibility for COVID-19 deaths is rich as the nationwide death toll sits officially at 170,000 — and by many reports it has likely already exceeded 200,000. In a flip-flopping move, the President also tweeted late Monday a campaign video that showed Cuomo appearing to praise the President’s team for being “on it,” when responding to the state’s requests during the height of the state’s outbreak. The clip seemed to suggest Trump deserved credit for Cuomo’s victory which he later decried as insufficient in his accusation of the governor as “Crooked & Incompetent.” Trump appeared to go after anyone who had a bit of the spotlight at the virtual Democratic convention, also taking aim at former First Lady Michelle Obama, and former Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R), among others.
…. TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY ITS YOU!!! !Yes, the same precautions that our mothers taught us – take extra vitamin D, to wash her hands and stay home when we are sick – are needed to only be used.
A MORE SCIENTIFIC APPROACH TOWARD PREVENTION… Chiropractic Nutrition is that specialty within the chiropractic profession that deals with the overall factors that affect the patient’s ability to maintain the manipulative correction and thus sustain better neurological integrity. The Chiropractic Nutrition Specialist will perform extensive research on the patient’s previous health history, ethnicity, and any family history related to what the patient is being treated for. Patients fill out questionnaires concerning dietary and sleep patterns and previous or present symptomatology. A nutrition examination would be performed to assess vitamin and mineral levels and areas such as absorption rates, adrenal function, kidney health, lung health etc. The patient is often instructed on how to check the pH of their saliva and urine, test for the presence of Candida Albicans, etc., at home. Outside laboratory testing includes blood, urine, hair analysis, food allergy testing etc. The patient’s prescription and over the counter medications are recorded and analyzed.

Your Coronavirus Test Is Positive. Maybe It Shouldn’t Be. I think there are elements (The Democrats) in the US that would do “anything” to get their way. Sad but true. Most likely true. We all know we have been lied to. And the lies will continue until the election. If so this is the greatest HOAX in the history of man-kind. Don’t forget to investigate the fraudulent Lancet study that was used to deny HCQ to hundreds of thousands… I think there are elements (The Democrats) in the US that would do “anything” to get their way.

Don’t forget to investigate the fraudulent Lancet study that was used to deny HCQ to hundreds of thousands… Most folks who died of covid-19 had a preexisting or additional condition. They still died of covid-19 lol. I know one nurse and she said if someone died relating to any of the covid-19 conditions like pneumonia hospitals reported it as a Covid-19 death because there was funding kickbacks. The truth shall set us free!! This might be the only place it’s mentioned. You believe that?? You have to do autopsies to determine cause of death.. Don’t forget a fruit tested positive for Covid-19. #DumberThanADoorKnob In Utah the average age of death is 78. The Health Department released that the average age of COVID-related deaths is . . . 78! So either way they would have eventually died anyway. Seems like that is what it is to the negligent Trump administration! I would say yes especially since the hospitals got $13,000 financial incentives to treat Covid-19 patients. My best friend died from complications due to cancer. He was on a ventilator. He was tested for COVID twice. He was negative both times. COVID-19 is on his death certificate. @POTUS Retweeted Qanon researcher @littllemel pointing out CDC’s very own and very quiet admission that only 6% of all the 153,504 deaths in the US actually died from #COVID-19 Comorbidities (plural noun) the simultaneous presence of two or more diseases or medical conditions in a patient. “age and comorbidity may be risk factors for poor outcome” · · “comorbidity rates” a disease or medical condition that is simultaneously present with another or others in “patients with cardiovascular or renal comorbidities” Table 3 shows the types of health conditions and contributing causes mentioned in conjunction with deaths involving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned.
Twitter then deleted the post @realDonaldTrump retweeted. Copied after I verified it- look for the link below that takes you to the CDC site. This week the CDC quietly updated the Covid-19 number to admit that only 6% of all the 153,504 deaths recorded actually died from Covid-19. That’s 9,210 deaths. The other 94% had 2 to 3 other serious illnesses and the overwhelming majority were of very advanced age; 90% in nursing homes. That’s a pretty big BOOM. This is not to say it’s not real. I’m not debating that. I’m just showing updated numbers. Not here to fight. Sick of fighting. Will delete messages wanting to fight. Peace, love & good health to all. ETA- I am so grateful for the lives this post has touched and to see so many truth seekers! I do not know who the OP was, but I am super grateful to them! Since my comment is hard to access now, I am adding the CDC link here. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm… Remember the light has won!

“cOvID iS mOStlY kIlLiNg pEoPlE wItH UnDerLyInG ConDitIonS!!” We’ve known the numbers were skewed from the start, Mr. Gates must be pretty disappointed, it’ll make forcing his vaccine on us much harder. yep somebody needs to investigate whoever…cause damn that’s bad math or dirty politics. Yep we were played like a damn fiddle
Countries that used Hydroxychloroquine early on had a 79% lower mortality rate than countries that banned the use of the safe malaria drug! Did we destroy healthy lives for a nothing burger but with a wet fart sound for a promise of a vaccine by years end… John Cage’s 4:33.
The United States Case Count just topped 6 million coronavirus cases in about 7 months. What happens next is up to you, Birx says. This means that Fauci, Birx, the CDC, the MSM & big tech have been pushing a lie that has had deadly consequences! Birx says, ‘she’s hopeful about the coronavirus vaccine but urges people to ‘do the right thing today’ Why is everyone so shocked. Dr. Brix even said she didn’t trust the CDC, numbers were inflated & that every death was being counted as Covid-19 at a press conference. Take 2019 total death rate and compare it to 2020 total death rate and look for the difference. They’ve known since day 1, this bug attacks elderly and infirm people. Step 1 safeguard those. If we’d done that and allowed the rest to go on. We’d be absolutely fine. So ok if they died from their illnesses AND COVID? Because they were – as you say- old? Another way to look at it is that without COVID they wouldn’t be dead…
Secret White House Coronavirus Task Force Reports Contradict Public Claims by Trump. It seems to make the number more accurate compared to the rest of the world. Though it also makes China’s numbers seem truthful as well. If it is true, does that change anything for our country? Or are we still having to wait for the election to be over before the country opens back up. Given that it’s an election year too, I can so believe this is the real deal, while the shutdowns and hysteria was a ruse to attempt to put shade on our President. We all knew it was over bloated and all about the politics.
Once the Government threatened businesses it was somewhat over. All by design. Shadow Cabal running things. Next up, they shut down internet and cellular devices… Yes all the nations of the world are faking it to try and make Trump lose. We sort of figured this out right at the beginning but by then the states had taken over our lives and put us all on lock down.
