The silence of the Lord
Sometimes I'm sorry that God doesn't talk to us, and sometimes I'm sure many of us want to be able to talk to Him as a friend, and get an answer. But I tell you honestly, maybe God wants to give us peace and quiet through his silence. For those who do not understand this I will explain in a few words ...
We people because of everyday problems, we have moments when we feel overwhelmed by problems and we feel the need to go somewhere in a desert place as far away from the world, we feel the need to relax, we feel the need for peace from those who it surrounds us ... So maybe this is what God wants us to offer through His Continuing Silence. maybe he wants to give us peace of mind, maybe his plans for us are far too big for us to understand, and if he would talk to us and try to explain why, how and what ... we would not understand and maybe it would upset us ... and maybe, He does not want to upset us either, He knowing that we are already upset with each other. So you should appreciate this "Peace of Soul" that He offers us. And we should ask Him to help us get through life's trials more easily, whether they are part of His plans for us or are happenings caused by some mysterious event or mistake from someone's past.

Well Done England For Treating Covid-19 As a "Flu"!
How Your Medical Institutions Write!
Covid-19 Has Symptoms of a " Flu"!
Therefore It Is Just Justified Calling It " Flu"
Untill Now Covid- 19 Is Been So So Complicated for Us To Understand It!
I Hope The Rest of The World , Follow Your Steeps!
Thank you

Clear Cut Definitions Wanted.
How would you define a
Democrat?
Republican?
Independent?
Is this statement true?
Generally, the left-wing is characterized by an emphasis on "ideas such as freedom, equality, fraternity, rights, progress, reform and internationalism" while the right-wing is characterized by an emphasis on "notions such as authority, hierarchy, order, duty, tradition, reaction and nationalism".
I get confused when a guy calling himself a Independent can only speak well of the Ultra left. Does this mean that an 'Independent' is a confirmed leftist or could an 'Independent' also be Far Right?
How many 'left, right wings' are there in the USA. Left, Far Left, Ultra left etc?
All the above shit is quite confusing to a guy that tries to avoid politics.
This is not a political blog,
More of a 'probing' blog.

New word old meaning
Wayne Brady's DMs have been "popping" since he came out as pansexual.
The 51-year-old star revealed that he's pansexual - meaning he's attracted to people regardless of their sex or gender
I guess now we have multiple genders
And people identifying as animals etc we can no longer use Bi s*xual even though there are only 2 choices
You are either XX or XY

The BEST US presidents in history.
Far too much attention is given to the worst US president of all time (Trump).
That's somewhat understandable, as he is the current problem and seems to screw
up at least once per day.
However, with president's day recently passing,
lets instead pay favorable tribute to the top 20 US presidents of all time.
Sure, you may have your personal favorites, and that's OK.
Perhaps you like something about someone else.
However, neither one of us are as qualified in this field,
as the people who make the judgements for the official list.
Thus, when it comes to actually getting positive things done as a great leader,
here are truly the top 20 as determined by the most qualified presidential historians.
Don't get me wrong, no president is perfect. They each have some flaws.
That's part of being human. Regardless, here's the absolute best so far.
Hopefully the next one will join them.

In a recent survey, nearly 200 political science scholars ranked US presidents on a scale of 0-100, from failure (zero) to average (50) to great (100). The totals were then averaged for each president and ranked from highest to lowest.
Here are the greatest US presidents, ranked according to current and recent members of the American Political Science Association:
20: James Polk
19: William McKinley
18: James Monroe
17: George H.W. Bush
16: John F. Kennedy
15: Andrew Jackson
14: John Adams
13: Bill Clinton
12: James Madison
11: Woodrow Wilson
10: Lyndon B. Johnson

Genetically, Only a Small Percentage of Humans is Uniquely Human
Perhaps the variation in the amount that the individual has, helps explain why SOME people behave less 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

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)....
