The eerie feeling of eating alone in a public restaurant  You might as well eat at home  The upside  the servers are attentive and upbeat  The food is usually good  There is plenty of time to serve and be served  while the pandemic unfairly rages around you  The real Twilight Zone that isn't showing for your amusement Link source   Wiki.com

Why is South Korea the UK and China more efficiently organized to fight the Corona Virus Who gets the message to stay safe and how to avoid infection is one of the critical factors in the growth of infection   Poverty is an unavoidable situation that limits the ability for self help   The capable must reach out to all to insure universal health   This is an obvious statement but is a larger problem to deal with than we are currently prepared for at the moment   The discovery of an effective vaccine is the waiting answer  when it is made available globally Source:  www.ft.com/   my comments come from publically published articles

Will the electoral college skew votes   Why would it change the popular vote   What justifies altering the will of the people   In order for President Trump to win   a significant deviation from the electorate choice would have to be favored   Is Biden any better than Hilary as the next person to run our country Sources: US Census Bureau; MIT Election and Data Science Lab; 2016 Cooperative Congressional Election Study; US Bureau of Economic Analysis; American National Election Studies; 270towin.com; Gallup; FiveThirtyEight; YouGov Forecast by The Economist with Andrew Gelman and Merlin Heidemanns, Columbia University

If you blog   the way to raise your hits is to provide provocative information   This can be either a religious topic   something of a sexual nature  and if you persist a political topic now worn thin  These models are not real  They are software posing characters   None of this type of software initially displays people with clothes   Even Disney artist started with a bare Snow White   Characters can be positioned in any pose  The male kneeling shows his finger pushed through his temple .. oops   Make of it what you will and let your common sense take you to never never land if you wish  or just enjoy a moment of imagination  that's all there is Posing and comments belong to the blogger

A neighbor's VW runs on physics not on code  A clean machine to be sure These inexpensive bugs ran without bugs, only oil, air, and gasoline  Yes they required maintenance when something was broken not merely a possible diagnostic prediction  This owner's other car is a new Corvette  Someone who obviously appreciates the best of both worlds  Das Volksauto für Menschen, die es sich leisten können

These statistics are a refection of individual choices made in a democracy that ignores safety, either by the electorate or those who choose to feel invincible Personal experience finds small businesses not policing social distancing   Lack of ongoing managed testing is not permission to congregate with others   As cruel as this situation is the outcomes are not a way of life we can continue safely  Do something governor Ron DeSantis Rapid increases in coronavirus cases are still part of "the first wave," according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, who said states must continue to follow safety standards or risk further outbreaks.

The steroid dexamethasone was given to thousands of people critically ill with corona virus in a randomized, controlled trial. Credit: Dr P. Marazzi/Science Photo Library An inexpensive and commonly used steroid can save the lives of people seriously ill with COVID-19, a randomized, controlled clinical trial in the United Kingdom has found. The drug, called dexamethasone, is the first shown to reduce deaths from the coronavirus that has killed more than 430,000 people globally. In the trial, it cut deaths by about one-third in patients who were on ventilators because of coronavirus infection. Photo credit : Dr P. Marazzi/Science Photo Library   www.nature.com

Isn't It a Pity Version One / George Harrison Isn't it a pity Isn't it a shame How we break each other's hearts And cause each other pain How we take each other's love Without thinking anymore Forgetting to give back Now, isn't it a pity Some things take so long But how do I explain When not too many people Can see we're all the same And because of all their tears Your eyes can't hope to see The beauty that surrounds them Now, isn't it a pity Isn't it a pity, (oh-o) Now, isn't is a shame How we break each other's hearts And cause each other pain How we take each other's love Without thinking anymore Forgetting to give back Now, isn't it a pity George Harrison - via youtube

“ The Second Coming " is a poem written by Irish poet W. B. Yeats in 1919 ” Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Yeats poem sounds familiar while written as the 1919 flu ravages  We repeat our sins our glorious moments of triumph and start a new age that makes and takes lives  With no less than a deaf and dumb shepherd who outrageous us all   we live on shaken ground to the taunts of retaliation  Change comes and go as we do but do we change Joni Mitchell - Slouching Towards Bethlehem  Joni Mitchell sings the poem in the above link poem distributed source:   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Second_Coming_(poem) youtube Joni Mitchell  Sluching Towards Bethlehem

Margaret Mead extolled the value of “spiritual and mental ancestors” in how w e form our identity — those people to whom we aren’t related but whose values we try to cultivate in ourselves; role models we seek out not from our immediate genetic pool but from the pool of culture the surrounds us, past and present. Seneca saw in reading, one of the oldest and most reliable ways to identify and contact these cultural ancestors, a way of being adopted into the “households of the noblest intellects.” That sounds like good advice to me  Why complain about our crappy parents, stupid friends and coworkers  They don't have to live in your heads  They only provide limited life support  How you think is up to you  Again the title of this blog is a message to all the people out there who don't have a choice about what rattles their behavior  This place is simply a way to think differently and to share it with those who happen to stumble upon the thoughts of another  by By Maria Pop

Spock emerged for baby boomers when their parents looked for a child rearing guide Benjamin McLane Spock (May 2, 1903 – March 15, 1998) was an American pediatrician whose book Baby and Child Care (1946) is one of the best-selling volumes in history. The book's premise to mothers is that "you know more than you think you do." [1] Star Trek continued to nurture these young adults with a series that has influenced this generation as well as many others in numerous countries and maybe other galaxies.   Spock the Star Trek character flourished with his logic and enduring courage.
