Black privilege ????? Wow ! You simply don't understand that the opposite is true and has been true for many decades. As far as the murders that happened during protests (some of which were of blacks), they took place AFTER the George Floyd murder. Their trials will come.
I saw this on the news. I instantly thought of you, and remembered you said, that you lived in a gated community (not a high rise). Nonetheless, I'm glad you weren't visiting someone there at the time of it's collapse. Could it have been a sinkhole that initiated the collapse, or was it likely shoddy construction ?
Boh - you have absolutely no idea what you are discussing. The mRNA codes for the viral anchor protein. The immune response is to that protein, not the RNA. It sees the viral protein as foreign, not the viral mRNA. The mRNA is eventually degraded, as is the viral protein. You do not retain the mRNA. Indeed, you do not retain your own mRNA. That is also degraded and made over & over again, as needed because that IS part of your DNA. You are not genetically modified. Since you are not genetically modified, you don't actually make the viral mRNA, unless you get infected by the virus (i.e. you do not get vaccinated) . If you are vaccinated (or have been infected with the virus), the next time the viral protein is detected in the body, there is a faster more proficient response to that viral protein. Immunizations just prime the immune systems to have a more rapid and more efficient immune response upon detecting the viral protein a subsequent time. They do not genetically modify you.
MrB - don't be envious, be active. No matter what shape you are in now, find some aerobic activity that you enjoy. It can be riding a bike, swimming, jogging, skating, rollerblading, tennis, baseball, voleyball, rowing a boat, or even walking. Start slowly and just add a tiny bit more each session. Keep a written record of what you did each time, so you can witness how much you improve over a long time. Do something to improve your health at least 3 times a week. Again, start very slow and add a little bit more each time. If you do that, after a year, you will be in much better shape and it will never be more than you can handle.
The mistake most people make, is that they try to go all out in the beginning. They get sore and they dread doing it again. People get out of shape slowly over time and should get in shape slowly by challenging themselves just a tiny bit more each time.
My belated condolences on your loss. I'm sure that he would want you to carry on, and enjoy your life. Unfortunately it is certainly temporary. Enjoy it, while you have the opportunity to do so.
C - At this point, I am not suggesting that you attempt to fix the windshield yourself. But rather, to attempt to slow the progress of the crack for the time necessary to get the appropriate replacement.
Yeah, I remember seeing that UV light glue being sold on TV late at night.
Ed - There's nothing wrong with being able to do multiple things.
I wonder if a drop of Crazy Glue at both ends of the crack will help slow it's progress in growing. If it were me, I'd give it a try. I believe that is what they use to repair cracks in windshields. They drill a small hole in the glass and fill the crack with Crazy Glue. Of course, they would never let you know what the liquid they use is. But, all long time ago, I looked at an "opportunity" to become one of the guys, who goes around repairing windshields and I felt what it was.
Here's a $10 kit, that uses a "resin" to repair the chip with use of a syringe.
Yes, how dare they teach them, in of all places, a school. It's much better, that they learn it on a street corner, or from their pals, who know about as much as they do.
Derek Chauvin to be sentenced today.
