By Dr. Vishnu Reddy Apr 11  This article is a Reblog   Graphic by this blogger  "So many of us are still grappling with the effects of 2020. Whether it’s finance related, home ownership, personal health or..really anything. It’s safe to say that we have all been affected in one way or another. Now there is a looming phrase in the media that threatens to delay an end to our collective dilemma — mutation. So what is a mutation exactly? Is it dangerous? And what does a mutant strain mean for you? Here, we’re going to break down these three ideas and the medical information behind them to better equip you moving forward." What is a Mutation? A m u tation is essentially a random change in the genetic code of the virus. The genetic code is essentially a blueprint for the virus that tells itself how to build new virus particles after it infects our bodies. So when there is a change, or a mutation, in the blueprint the structure of the virus and the particles on the virus

 Blessed Virgin Mary Illusion is the cousin of imagination. An idea permeates a person’s reality until it becomes real. New insights are born from the weeds embedded in the mind. Nurtured by misfortune entertaining thoughts ideas take shape that would have gone unnoticed. The artist is the master of illusion, so is a magician or a politician who seeks undeserved gain for himself, leaving his constituents to wonder when the moment of truth will pop up. If religion is an illusion it keeps the soul alive. All civilizations have created deities, something or someone to worship other than themselves. What we believe is our reality and it becomes with time the truths, laws and customs that define our people.

 "What is a code talker? A code talker is the name given to American Indians who used their tribal language to send secret communications on the battlefield." Today computer code is the backbone of commerce and military security.  The accepted language that many software packages use is Apache.  “This is one of the worst vulnerabilities in the history of vulnerabilities,” Tom Kellermann, a former member of an Obama administration cybersecurity commission and the head of Cybersecurity Strategy at technology company VMware, told The Hill on Monday." "The vulnerability in an Apache logging framework, known as “Log4j ,” that could allow hackers to obtain access to targeted systems remotely sent experts running to update systems. Apache put out a security advisory warning of the threat and recommending steps to help organizations protect themselves."    Read the full article here from The Hill     

  The title of this blog is Bi-Polar People  There is very little information about this manic depressive state, how to cope medically and methods of  mindfulness that work for some  Instead you get to see an eclectic collection of interest that is the result of having an appreciation for almost anything (as represented by the blog entries) Here are a few examples.  Photographs unless sometimes credited... are mine as well as graphics and sketches   Another world as influenced by NASA picture galleries   The state of utter confusion with a glimpse of the mind in the upper right hand corner  Four faces with different emotions competing for attention     Wonderment of a four year old grandson    "One of the great successes of the early American space program, the Mariner 4 mission journeyed to Mars -- making its closest approach on July 15, 1965 -- and took the first photos of another planet from space."  Image credit: NASA

Roger Gilmartin   says, "This is a topic of great interest to me, especially since Voyager 1 is the most remote craft we have ever sent forth. After 40 years of travel, it has reached the light distance of only 20 hours. In evaluating this result, it tends to place a large damper on our ultimate ability to reach anywhere that is significantly outside the solar system."   "This graphic (which represents a logarithmic scale, based on AU) was created in 2013, and so Voyager is ever so slightly more to the right. Voyager is estimated to reach the Oort cloud in about 300 more years." "It will be many generations of us to come and go, before Voyager, then dark and cold, reaches the Proxima Centauri or Alpha Centauri neighborhood." "We have to work on the next generation (or two) of propulsion, otherwise we are restricted to the Solar System." "Update: As of 2 March 2021, Voyager 1 has traveled a distance of 21

  USA Some of the most talked about news in the US are the Pandora Dossier, the California oil spill, and the Nobel Prize winners in medicine. An international consortium of journalists based in the US capital, Washington, has conducted a massive investigation into corruption among world leaders. As a result of the global investigation, known as "Pandora's dossier» (Pandora papers), journalists became available nearly 12 million documents. The data reveal offshore schemes, tax evasion and, in some cases, money laundering by some of the world's most powerful people, government officials and their families. Among those mentioned in the investigation: King Abdullah II of Jordan, the family of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Czech Prime Minister Andrei Babishch, General Director of the Russian Channel One Konstantin Ernst, Svetlana Krivonogikh, who is called a close friend of the President of Russia. Environmental disaster threatens Southern California.

"People ages 65 and older and those in long-term care settings and people ages 50 to 64 with underlying medical conditions should get a third shot of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine at least six months after their first two shots." "The guidance from the FDA and CDC comes after data from Pfizer found its  vaccine’s immunity started to decline  after six months. Evidence has been strongest for a booster dose in people ages 65 and older. There is little data about the risks of severe illness for younger people who are fully vaccinated and even less evidence showing the  safety  of a third dose."

 This looks like a beautiful places to visit The terrain is varied with a wealth of nature and creature amenities  Activities are abundant for anyone adventuresome or lounging in a tropical paradise... but I have never been there "Hua Hin is one of the top tourist destinations of Thailand from its great amount of attractions and activities - plus it isn’t far from Bangkok The city has many incredible Beaches, mountains, viewpoints, Temples, night markets, water parks, and fine diners for you to choose from and enjoy at any time of the year - tourist hype" Reasons we didn’t warm up to Hua Hin   From this blog post:    Hi!

  The bikes listed here are the original editors choice .  There are others that are more economical depending on your use.  For the casual rider count on spending around $800 or less which may sound like a large amount.  Electric bikes solve the need to escape for a short distance and set  you free.  If your needs are greater there is a bike for you, just look around.  I have a Jupiter Bike which allows me a means to shop locally and visit the many parks in my area.

 After thyroid surgery I have experience what follows in this article from Pyshce Five hours of surgery and five hours to wake from anesthesia led to acute trauma and a stay in ICU, for reasons that have yet to be told.  This condition of mind effects so few people, you will probably not identify with any of this.  Blogging is usually fun for me.  This entry is not, but it is a way to advertise grief.  In time it will be lifted either by natural causes or replacement hormones used when the thyroid is totally removed.    Things that were I can not see I wonder why do you believe That time changes us so much Just hear my words, allow a touch Nothing changes It goes away Is never gone Just stays that way CM  Article source   https://psyche.co
