DATA BILL INDIA 2021 - Protection or Invasion ?
As from last few years , there were several cases about "Citizen's Fundamental Right To Privacy" , our Supreme Court ordered present Govt. to deliver some solid action regarding this...
And our Govt. has brought this "Data Protection Bill 2021" to fulfil that requirement directed by Supreme Court , at least our Govt. claiming to do so ...
But
My question is ,
Is it really the intention to "Protect" our Data as well as Privacy !?
Or
Under "Disguise" of "Protection" , our Govt. in fact Creating the Opportunity to "Invade" into our Personal Space and "Monitor" our Personal Data Without even our Conscious Consent !??
Our "Right To Privacy" Should Not be Implemented ONLY UPON Private Companies , but ALSO UPON our GOVT. as well...
Because , our Govt. is nothing but another power hungry representative of some political party , and they are not trustworthy or beyond doubt at all , specially when it comes to the safety and protection of personal rights of our citizens ...
As We have all ready witnessed many disappointing incidents lead by our present Govt. ...

what brings faith or faithless in God
Believing in God is needful, it make possible to go away from sin and from evil and agree with God in love
and so to be saved and live with God forever in happiness.
Faithless cause to go away from God and so to be rebelled against God,and so comes sicknesses
death and destruction.
who cause doubts and faithless? is the devil who is rebelled against God, so he fight to mislead and deceive
men with false and lead to rebellion and evil doing and so to sin against God,
and so cause men to go in hell.So man have free will and need to reject devil and so to believe in God and will be free from sin and from evil, and will be saved.
Believing and obeying God it free you from all bad and save you.
God is the Creator, you belong to God, so don,t lose time start believing and obeying God,
time is short, if you die without believing and without obeying God, comes judgement and hell.
read bible and believe Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
Every good comes from God. every evil comes from devil.
So devil soon will go in hell. and this world will end and will be kingdom of God on earth.
Love God with all heart.., and love your neighbours as yourself.
God is love and is good,love and do good to help you to enlighten you and free you from darkness.
All who loves Truth comes to God, but those who love false are gone to evil...!
those that loves good and do so, will be away from evil.
God bless.
and so to be saved and live with God forever in happiness.

Biden is Succeeding at helping the USA citizens long term
Sure, Biden hasn't been perfect. He's made some mistakes.
However, he inherited a terrible mess from the previous "so-called" president,
and has in most situations, however not all, made things much better.
Most importantly, he is changing America long term for the better.
He's been helping the downtrodden to have a better life in America,
helping close the gap between the haves and the have nots.
It's ironic, that many of those downtrodden don't yet approve of his presidency.
Perhaps that will change, as they slowly better understand how Biden is helping.
Time will tell.

Joe Biden is succeeding

Joe Biden came to the White House at a pivotal moment in American history. We had become a country dividing into two nations, one highly educated and affluent and the other left behind. The economic gaps further inflamed cultural and social gaps, creating an atmosphere of intense polarization, cultural hostility, alienation, bitterness and resentment.
As president, Biden had mostly economic levers to try to bridge this cold civil war. He championed three gigantic pieces of legislation to create a more equal, more just and more united society: the COVID stimulus bill, the infrastructure bill and what became Build Back Better, to invest in human infrastructure.
All of these bills were written to funnel money to the parts of the country that were less educated, less affluent, left behind. Adam Hersh, a visiting economist at the Economic Policy Institute, projects that more than 80% of the new jobs created by the infrastructure plan will not require a college degree.
These gigantic proposals were bold endeavors. Some thought them too bold. Economist Larry Summers thought the stimulus package, for example, was too big. It could overstimulate the economy and lead to inflation.
Larry is one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever known and someone I really admire. If I were an economist, I might have agreed with him. But I’m a journalist with a sociological bent. For over a decade I have been covering a country that was economically, socially and morally coming apart. I figured one way to reverse that was to turbocharge the economy and create white-hot labor markets that would lift wages at the bottom. If inflation was a byproduct, so be it. The trade-off is worth it to prevent a national rupture.
The Biden $1.9 trillion stimulus package passed and has been tremendously successful. It heated the overall economy. The Conference Board projects that real GDP growth will be about 5% this quarter. The unemployment rate is falling. Retail sales are surging. Two-thirds of Americans feel their household’s financial situation is good.
But the best part is that the benefits are flowing to those down the educational and income ladder. In just the first month of payments, the expanded Child Tax Credit piece of the stimulus bill kept 3 million American children out of poverty. Pay for hourly workers in the leisure and hospitality sector jumped 13% in August compared with the previous year. By June, there were more nonfarm job openings than there had been at any time in American history. Workers have tremendous power these days.
The infrastructure bill Biden just signed will boost American productivity for years to come. As Ellen Zentner of Morgan Stanley told The Economist recently, it’s a rule of thumb that an extra $100 billion in annual infrastructure spending could increase growth by roughly a tenth of a percentage point — which is significant in an economy the size of ours. Federal infrastructure spending will be almost as large a share of annual GDP as the average level during Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal.....

If it's true ... Maybe they had something to say
Scientists claim that they have discovered that there are an infinite number of parallel universes in which there is a slightly different person from the "I" among each of us. Most of all, each of us has an infinite number of "doubles", so to speak. There is basically an "I" and an "you" and any of us in each of these parallel universes.
For those who find it hard to believe this ... and wonder if that's the case, then where are they ..well they're not in outer space as you might think ... but it's a little more complicated than that ..Their explanation it would be that each body functions at a certain frequency .... the molecules move at a certain rate ... they vibrate at a certain frequency in each universe ..both ours and the other universes .... fact for which they can exist or coexist in the same place and yet in a different place each at the same time ... that is, as a position they are still here but in a different universe ... on a different frequency ..
Finally, I hope I have clarified this chapter ... because I would like to move on to today's topic.
If all this is true, I was thinking of children who die before they are born. Maybe they were conceived with a purpose, not by pure chance, and maybe their fate was cruel because the Creator decided so, but maybe, their conception, their coming into the world for a short period of time. it is not by chance, perhaps They lived a life somewhere in one or more of these parallel universes, perhaps their love for their family was so great that they wanted to make their presence known here as well. And perhaps, their journey in life, their purpose was achieved, which is why God decided to keep them with Him, but somehow they asked Him to give them the chance to make their presence known in other worlds where their family will continue to exist, to send a message. Maybe they just wanted to send a message, saying "hey, I was part of this family once, and I loved you so much, my dear parents. ..thank you for what you offered me when I lived with you, I love you "and so their life ends leaving a mark in our lives. A message of Farewell, attached to a bouquet of thanks and wrapped with love. I don't know if any of this is true or if it's just words and suspicions, but I think how nice it would be if that were the case. Maybe God created things we don't know, because we weren't taught or we weren't allowed to know, by people who can control the world ... Thank you for your attention.

Why faith need in God
Jesus said to thomas: now you see that i am alive but blessed are those who believe without seeing.
So we need faith in God without seeing.
disbelieving and disobeying truth of God comes from evil when devil is rebelled against God.
So many people do not believe in God because they find wrong reason and wrong teaching and bad thoughts that keep them to not believe, so they are deceived and misleaded from evil,
Evil brings wars and killings and sicknesses and destruction,in him is no truth and no good but all evil.
So wake up and read bible and believe and obey God to be saved from evil and from sin.
God said we have commandments and prophets in bible to obey for to be saved.
two greatest commandments are :1. Love God with all heart...,2. and love your neighbours as yourself.
and then 10 commandments.
God is Love and is Good. when man do good and away from evil ,he progress.
So do good for yourself and for others.
God bless.

Genetically, Only a Small Percentage of Humans is Uniquely Human

Only a tiny fraction of our DNA is uniquely human
The result underscores how big of a hand interbreeding among ancient hominids had in shaping us
By Tina Hesman Saey
July 16, 2021 at 2:07 pm
The genetic tweaks that make humans uniquely human may come in small parcels interspersed with DNA inherited from extinct ancestors and cousins.
Only 1.5 percent to 7 percent of the collective human genetic instruction book, or genome, contains uniquely human DNA, researchers report July 16 in Science Advances.
That humans-only DNA, scattered throughout the genome, tends to contain genes involved in brain development and function, hinting that brain evolution was important in making humans human. But the researchers don’t yet know exactly what the genes do and how the exclusively human tweaks to DNA near those genes may have affected brain evolution.
“I don’t know if we’ll ever be able to say what makes us uniquely human,” says Emilia Huerta-Sanchez, a population geneticist at Brown University in Providence, R.I., who was not involved in the study. “We don’t know whether that makes us think in a specific way or have specific behaviors.” And Neandertals and Denisovans, both extinct human cousins, may have thought much like humans do (SN: 2/22/18).
The results don’t mean that individual people are mostly Neandertal or Denisovan, or some other mix of ancient hominid. On average, people in sub-Saharan Africa inherited 0.096 percent to 0.46 percent of their DNA from ancient interbreeding between their human ancestors and Neandertals, the researchers found (SN: 4/7/21). Non-Africans inherited more DNA from Neandertals: about 0.73 percent to 1.3 percent. And some people inherited a fraction of their DNA from Denisovans as well.
Using a new computational method, researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz examined every spot of DNA in the genomes of 279 people. The team compiled results from those individual genomes into a collective picture of the human genome. For each spot, the team determined whether the DNA came from Denisovans, Neandertals or was inherited from a common ancestor of humans and those long-lost relatives.
Although each person may carry about 1 percent Neandertal DNA, “if you look at a couple hundred people, they mostly won’t have their bit of Neandertal DNA in the same place,” says Kelley Harris, a population geneticist at the University of Washington in Seattle who wasn’t involved in the work. “So if you add up all the regions where someone has a bit of Neandertal DNA, that pretty soon covers most of the genome.”
In this case, about 50 percent of the collective genome contains regions where one or more people inherited DNA from Neandertals or Denisovans, the researchers discovered. Most of the rest of the genome has been passed down from the most recent common ancestor of humans and their extinct cousins. After whittling away the ancient heirloom DNA, the team looked for regions where all people have human-specific tweaks to DNA that no other species have. That got the estimate of uniquely human DNA down to anywhere between 1.5 percent and 7 percent of the genome.
The finding underscores just how much interbreeding with other hominid species affected the human genome, says coauthor Nathan Schaefer, a computational biologist now at the University of California, San Francisco. The researchers confirmed previous findings from other groups that humans bred with Neandertals and Denisovans, but also with other extinct, unknown hominids (SN: 2/12/20)....

Earth Has a Second Moon—For Another 300 Years, At Least
Jeffrey Kluger

It’s easy to be brand loyal to the moon. We’ve only got the one, after all, unlike Jupiter and Saturn, where you’d have dozens to choose from. Here, it’s luna or nada. Or not. The fact is, there’s another sorta, kinda moon in a sorta, kinda orbit around Earth that was discovered only in 2016. And according to a new study in Nature, we may at last know how it was formed.
The quasi-moon—named Kamo’oalewa, after a Hawaiian word that refers to a moving celestial object—is not much to speak of, measuring less than 50 m (164 ft) across. It circles the Earth in a repeating corkscrew-like trajectory that brings it no closer than 40 to 100 times the 384,000 km (239,000 mi.) distance of our more familiar moon. Its odd flight path is caused by the competing gravitational pulls of the Earth and the sun, which continually bend and torque the moonlet’s motions, preventing it from achieving a more conventional orbit.
“It’s primarily influenced just by the sun’s gravity, but this pattern shows up because it’s also—but not quite—on an Earth-like orbit. So it’s this sort of odd dance,” says graduate student Ben Sharkey of the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona, the lead author of the paper.
None of this means that Kamo’oalewa has to have especially exotic origins. The solar system is littered with asteroids, some of which are captured by the gravity of other planets and become more conventional—if fragmentary—moons. Others don’t orbit other planets in the common way but fall into line in front of them or behind them and pace them in their orbits around the sun, like the flocks of so-called Trojan asteroids that precede and trail Jupiter.
ither way, Kamo’oalewa was bound to get attention because its composition posed a stubborn mystery. Asteroids tend to reflect brightly in certain infrared frequencies, but Kamo’oalewa just doesn’t. It’s dimmer somehow—clearly made of different stuff, which suggests a different origin.
To investigate the mystery, Sharkey, under the guidance of his PhD adviser, planetary scientist Vishnu Reddy, first turned to a NASA-run telescope in Hawaii routinely used for studying Earth-vicinity asteroids. But even through the usually reliable instrument, the infrared signature seemed too faint. Instead they switched to a University of Arizona-run monocular telescope that, as Sharkey says, could “squeeze every last ounce of photons out of that object.”
That produced better, clearer results, but still they were incomplete. The rock was made of common silicates like other asteroids, but they were common only in their general composition, not in their infrared signature, which remained stubbornly off.
At last, the answer suggested itself. If Kamo’oalewa was behaving like a sort of quasi-moon, perhaps it was an artifact of the actual moon. Earlier in Sharkey’s PhD program, one of his advisers published a paper on lunar samples brought back by the Apollo 14 mission in 1971. When Sharkey compared the data he was getting in his telescope with what the earlier geologists came up with in the rock lab, the results matched perfectly. The kind of space-weathering lunar silicates undergo when they’re still on the surface of the moon precisely accounted for the differences in the infrared reflectivity between common asteroids and Kamo’oalewa....

Where from comes doubts and hate against believing in God
You know Good exist and evil exist also,but soon will be in hell.
From Good comes no bad. from evil comes all bad.
Devil is all evil who is rebelled against God ,and so he do evil and attacks against truth and against Good.
God is Good and is Love.From God comes all Good things.
From evil comes doubts and hate against believing in God.
So many people don,t believe in truth of God, because evil gives them desire and bad thoughts to be against
truth of God, so they find wrong reasons and wrong cause-ing as tool too not believe in truth of God.
So devil mislead and deceive them with falseness.
So Hell is filling with so many people who are against truth of God.
So Hell is all kinds of sufferings .
Devil push people to sin and be against truth of God.
Why so many people don,t believe in God ?
