disinfect the body....possible?
Is it possible that Trump was hinting about something he might know, but it is a hidden technology/medicine?
or
Is it that he was really talking about us injecting Clorox in our bodies? ...or when he was talking about introducing the inside of our bodies to a light.
Of course, those sound like ridiculous ideas....anybody...a 4 year old would know better, which makes me wonder.
Happy Friday all.

Man man with a pig's heart...
Earlier this year doctors at the University of Maryland performed a transplant of a genetically modified pigs heart to a 57 year old man. It was a medical first. He lived for 2 months and suddenly died. 2 months later, they found a viral DNA in the pig heart that was causing an infection.
So now there is fear that animal-to-human transplants run a risk of introducing new kinds of infections to people.
Something to consider when signing documents to receive experimental transplants.

MAYA KING PACAL
In 615 CE, PACAL became king of Palenque. Now known as Mexico. He was 12 years old. When he died at age 80 he was buried in the largest of the Mayan step pyramids called the Temple of the inscriptions. When his tomb was discovered, on the lid of his sarcophagus was an engraving which depicts PACAL apparently sitting in the cockpit of a spacecraft.
How do you explain this design? How could people then have any knowledge of such transportation.
To view this engraving, search for PACAL sarcophagus and consider how this design could have come about.

Imagine a commercial ariline that travels over 4,000 miles per hour, 5 times the speed of sound
Known as hypersonic flight, it requires take-off and landing with a traditional engine.
However, it also requires a specially modified engine, that only ignites after it is already in flight.
Prototypes are soon to come from an Atlanta based company, that has financing from the US government and orders from around the globe. It plans to have a running prototype aircraft by 2023,
a cargo carrying model by 2025 and a passenger model by 2029.
It would allow travel from New York to London in an hour.
It might even allow long distance relationships doable...... at least for the rich.
The plane will carry less than 20 passengers. So, you know those tickets won't be cheap.
Still though, like flights to space, it may foretell what may be common day experiences in the future.

Forget Supersonic. This Hypersonic Jet Can Fly From NYC to London in Under an Hour.

Supersonic flight is arriving—in a hurry. In the last 18 months, Boom has successfully tested its XB-1 demonstrator aircraft and pre-sold 15 of its still-in-development 30-seat Overture models to United Airlines. Virgin Galactic and Rolls Royce rolled out a partnership to develop a 19-seater. Even the Russian Federation revealed plans to build a supersonic jet for commercial use.
Then there’s the Hermeus Quarterhorse. Think supersonic or Mach 1—the speed of sound—multiply by five and you have the hypersonic Quarterhorse.
Last week, the Atlanta-based company announced a $60 million award from the US Air Force to finance testing of the aircraft. Like the Greek god Hermes, this Hermeus is designed to travel seamlessly between worlds, with a projected top speed of Mach 5.5—or 4,219 mph. That makes it the fastest reusable aircraft on the planet, so a New York-to-London flight will take less than an hour.
The speed will come from a unique engine set-up, a turbine-based combined cycle (TBCC) propulsion system. Such systems use a standard jet engine for launch and landing and to build enough speed in flight to feed air into a second turbine—known as a ramjet or scramjet—which produces more power, but requires high-speed air flow in order to ignite. The difficulty is managing the transition between the turbines and achieving the necessary aerodynamics.
Hermeus is off to a good start. In nine months, it designed, built and tested its engine, which is based on GE J85 turbo jet, and it has two advantages when it comes to testing. The Quarterhorse will fly autonomously, so the development team can get prototypes in the air and learn from them without risking pilots’ lives.
Right now, it plans to test a small-scale version in 2023, a mid-size cargo-carrying version in 2025 and a larger commercial passenger version in 2029.
The other advantage is, of course, the government money. “While this partnership with the US Air Force underscores US Department of Defense interest in hypersonic aircraft, when paired with Hermeus’s partnership with NASA announced in February 2021, it is clear that there are both commercial and defense applications for what we’re building,” said AJ Piplica, Hermeus CEO.
Yes, defense is important, but really, let us know when we can wake up in the morning and make it to a late-afternoon tee time at St. Andrews.

I can merely dream
of what wonders await my grandchildren in a future when it is only at the doorstep I can sit.
from my past
i was having a dream about my teeth falling out.
a noise at my front door woke me up.
then voices.
footsteps in my hall & back room.
someone shouted "Hello".
"Hello?!" i shouted in a "wtf?" kinda way
i got up.
opened my living room/bedroom door to having a torch shone in my face.
it was the cops.
apparently when i came back from the store earlier i hadn't closed my front door properly.
it musta just swung open while i was asleep & i guess one of the neighbours called the cops thinking my place had been broken into. i think the cop said that they'd tried shouting in & got no reply. f*ck what a mess my place is.
great.
now these cops'll tell 2 friends...

Noam Chomsky.
White guilty, self loathing member of the tribe. New evidence tends to discredit much of his linguistic babbling on syntax,---especially the vapid insistence that such complex human actions can be somehow based on one gene locus. JFC. His USA hating politics go downward from there. Aa.
