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          

 This documentary from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, JPL and the Space Age displays the efforts that finally allowed the first ever photographs of Mars from orbit to landing While Russia put the first satellite in space we landed men on the moon, and also performed the historic fly by with a digital photo of Mars, the first orbit and landing  Two decades later the space age program continues to teach us about the worlds around us  Mariner 4  First photograph of Mars surface that confirmed the presence of rivers that no longer exist Initial photos of Mars from the planet's surface

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
