I have been searching without any success. I have low end (50 mr/hr), high range (0 - 500 R/hr) and mid range (0.2 mR/hr to 200 R/hr) radiation detectors. I have checked everything in the house, even the lead bricks I bought off Ebay. The only items exhibiting any radioactivity at all were, a radium clock dial, a smoke detector and a sample of Cesium 137 (owned for calibration purposes). Nothing puts out more than 1.7 mr/hr. Even my geology specimens are totally quiet and harmless (unless thrown of course).

I suppose I should be glad, but it is somehow disappointing to know nothing is dangerously radioactive in my home.

What happens if you get monkeypox?
Monkeypox symptoms and signs include headache, skin rash, fever, body aches, chills, swollen lymph nodes, and exhaustion. It produces symptoms similar to smallpox, but milder. The time from infection to the onset of symptoms, which is referred to as the incubation period, can range from five to 21 days.


Does monkeypox hurt?
In humans, the symptoms of monkeypox are similar to but milder than the symptoms of smallpox. Monkeypox begins with fever, headache, muscle aches, and exhaustion.

How is monkeypox spread?
How does monkeypox spread? It spreads from one person to another through prolonged close contact (by inhaling the infected droplets), or direct contact with infected bodily fluids or contaminated objects, such as bedding or clothes. It does not spread via casual contact.

How do monkeypox start?
How you get monkeypox. Monkeypox can be caught from infected wild animals in parts of west and central Africa. It's thought to be spread by rodents, such as rats, mice and squirrels. You can catch monkeypox from an infected animal if you're bitten or you touch its blood, body fluids, spots, blisters or scabs.

What are the reasons behind this common human (and animal) behavior? Reading my blogs and posts, of course, will automatically do so, as with other tedious experiences. But sleepiness, cold, fear, and much else seems to bring them on. And they can certainly spread in a group of people, almost anywhere. Many animals yawn as well. And there are reports if interspecies yawning. Sometimes when presenting an errudire technical scientific argument to Bravo, he just looks lovingly at me, and lets go a huge noisy yawn. Tames my thoughts of self importance in a New York minute. Aa.

Is Covid making a comeback?



And if so, what will you do?

Maria and Katy Campbell, identical twins, can recall the life-changing statement their father made, that would forever alter the course of their lives. They were only 11 years old, when they overheard their father tell their mother, “Gosh, those girls are becoming young women, aren’t they? They’re getting hips.”
The twins, now 33 years old, decided that very day to stop eating in order to lose their blossoming hips…

Maria and Katy have spent the last 20 years of their lives, attempting to “punish” their parents for the remark their father made, so many years ago. Obviously, these women have severe mental issues along with their anorexia.
The twins have preternaturally childish bodies and voices. The illness causes their hair to fall out in clumps. Maria is 5’5” and weighs 87lbs and her sister, Katy is the same height, but weighs 70lbs. Neither twin has even started their period yet, because their body weight was never enough to support one.

The twins say they feel like the anorexia has imprisoned them.
Katy states, ‘I can’t walk any more. My back hurts, my heartbeat is irregular, I’ve got osteoporosis, chronic gastric pain and pancreatitis. I’m on diuretics because my kidneys don’t work.

‘Katy and I began to resent Mum because she was so slim,’ says Maria. ‘We looked up to her as a role model and felt we came up short.’
‘Maria started keeping a food diary and would jot down everything we ate, our weight and how much exercise we’d done. We started skipping breakfast and exercising fanatically, doing 50 lengths of the pool in the morning and gymnastics after school.

‘We had a system where we’d starve ourselves for six days, only eating 400 calories precisely a day — ten pieces of pic ’n’ mix, an orange, a banana and a diet cola,’ says Katy. ‘Then, on the final day, we’d eat anything and everything we could get our hands on — bread, pasta, crisps, cakes.’
‘When we were 15, Mum noticed we were losing weight, but we brushed her off. She began to sit with us during supper — but one of us would distract her while the other put food up their sleeves.’

Despite the illness, both girls gained excellent grades at GCSE and A-level and were accepted into medical school at the Royal Free Hospital in London.

Maria explains: ‘We were having just one cup of coffee and a packet of chocolate buttons a day, and Katy had lost a lot of weight. So we were called in and told that she would have to go to hospital to recover.
‘I remember one of the doctors saying they had noticed I had lost weight, too, but that my weight loss wasn’t quite as bad as Katy’s.
‘Rather than be relieved, I thought: “No one is going to say that Katy is better than me at something.” It was a trigger for me losing another 2st.’
Because of this deadly competitive streak, the girls were sent to different hospitals in London in the hope they would not be able to encourage each other’s weight loss.

‘We were force-fed 3,000 calories a day through tubes,’ says Maria. ‘We were not allowed any contact with each other, but we got around that by writing letters under pseudonyms and getting friends to pass them on. We also managed to get hold of mobile phones and hid them in cupboards.
‘It was the first time I had been apart from Katy and we were both in pieces. It’s hard enough being forced to eat, but I hated being without my sister.

Incredibly, they both graduated from medical school in 2009 and are now qualified doctors.

Stick it up your nose to prevent a COVID-19 infection.
I read a story that Columbia University researchers have developed a nasal spray that has successfully prevented COVID-19 infections. Interesting concept. It's not a vaccine but a lipopeptide (lipid and peptide combination) that blocks coronavirus from fusing with the cells membrane. The effects for a dose have lasted 24 hours.
Initial tests were successful and it will require human clinical trials, so it's not likely to go public soon, but there's always the chance should it go into production it would be successful in limiting the spread of the virus.

Just stick it up your nose!

makeup,underarm rollons/sprays,full body lotions,creams,shampoos,hair dyes,hair gel,shower gel,talcum powder,toothpaste,aftershave,perfumes,something for everyone,yet do you ever wonder what happens when you put these products on your skin?well it ends up in your blood stream,and the problem with that is many of the product ingrediance are toxic and carcinogen.

i dont think many people even think about this after all we all want to look feel and smell good.
unless your using a natural sun cream your more likely to get cancer from the cream than the sun.

most woman love makeup and why not,but regular users can use up to 5lbs a year,thats alot of toxins,even shampoos are tested and recognised as toxic and cacinogen.

so whats the answer?
keep it as natural as possible,and be aware of what you put on your skin,your health is priceless so keep away from harmful products

keep it real,sickness is not cheap,stay healthy..

Home Isn't Home Anymore........

This SHOULD go without saying, BUT.....
Lets just say, that in no large group is everyone going to be
of the same intelligence. That will not happen.
We are unique individuals.
Having read some of the things I see on here,
believe it or not, I truly worry about some of you especially after witnessing
how some of you are easily mislead.

Thus, just in case the hydroxychloroquin mishaps were not enough,
please do not inject disinfectant, no matter what the idiot-in-chief says.
And in case there are any doubts, here is the words of the FDA commissioner on this topic;

From CNN;

Mental Health in the U.S. could be greatly improved without the bloviators spreading hate, disinformation (lies) and mal-information, disrespect and bad jokes.
