- Coloring Pages for Adults and All Ages
I made a 2025 calendar which turned out to be so fun that I felt it deserved activity pages and the result was a Scavenger Hunt with an Easy, ( sync ), and a Harder version, ( sync ), which teach math - counting with tally marks on the Easy version and counting with a data table on the hard version - a computer version could be made from that with a basic Google spread sheet template. And there is a simple one page Library book log, ( sync ). Coloring pages turned into a more extensive Easy Reader Science Encyclopedia coloring book - for parents too! And a Poetry activity journal and Cookbook type of guide are also in the works. The 2025 Special Day Calendar is ready to go as a digital version to look at on your computer or print off for yourself. I will be ordering some printed ones too but haven’t yet nor found a way to make it print as you order it product. But, yippee! It looks great on the computer. My photography is gorgeous, in my own opinion, and the calendar could be a screen wallpaper maybe. The calendar as a pdf file, a long seamless scroll, ( sync ), best for printing. The calendar as individual PNG pages in a Zip file: 26 pages, ( sync ). PNG files are good for sharing online or printing. and as a Zip file in SVG format, maybe that would be better computer applications, maybe for making it into the Wallpaper type of idea (?). “Microsoft Edge HTML Document” is the file type when the zip file is opened - 26 pages. ( sync ) This coloring page turned out to be a bit more parent guidance needed than the rest: X is for X marks the spot! Treasure Island! See more coloring pages with poetry by Ogden Nash in this post: deNutrients.substack . And more background on my coloring book project and the importance of talking and reading to young children in normal language. If you speak to babies in baby talk, then how are they supposed to learn real words? Adult readers ... you've lost me, I'm writing for children now! (You can read it too though.) Merry Christmas & Happy Thanksgiving! This post is about a Christmas present I mentioned a few days ago and is about communicating with babies. We need to start young to have the best start in life.

- Wrong doesn't become right.
" A lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good, just because it's accepted by a majority. " - Booker T. Washington Lies repeated may be believed as the Nazi, Goebels stated during WWII, but that doesn't make them true or make propaganda right. “ I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him. ” - Booker T. Washington Booker T. Washington wrote about slavery in the United States - lived experience, born as an African American during the last years of slavery and a childhood spent living through the Civil War. He was an influential educator, author and speaker, and an advisor to several U.S. Presidents. He founded a school which became Tuskegee University. ( biography.com ) Maybe hatred just slows you down. Let go of the baggage and lighten your load. Denying or ignoring the past doesn't help us learn though. Remember the lessons and ask questions of what 'everyone knows'. Everyone knew that slavery was okay, until everyone knew that it was wrong. Read more quotes of Booker T.

The visitor's center, seen in the image below, was closed when I visited unexpectedly. It is lovely with a lot of famous figures and a few animal sculptures. Summertime flowers and a display of buffalo sculpture were also part of the experience. It is Indigenous People's Day in the United States - everyone knew that Indians were dangerous as we read in all the schoolbooks and as Western movies might suggest, -- except those early pioneers whose lives may have been saved by generous gift of food from indigenous people. Native people have been living here for 15,000 years. The United States has been a country for 244 years. Pocahontas was the daughter of a chief of many tribes, a region where early English settlers arrived. They were given food, but gradually made larger demands than the indigenous people could provide due to a droughty season. The English settlers had guns - does might make right? Pocahontas was a young girl when the settlers were being given food, and then demanding food. They were aware of her status as a favored daughter of a chief. She grew up and married an indigenous man and had a child. There were rumors that the English planned to kidnap her and the couple moved, but she was eventually kidnapped, raped, impregnated, taken away on a ship. Her child was saved by being with another indigenous family when the kidnapping occurred. Her husband was killed by the English however. Might does not make right. Rape is a crime. Genocide is an international human rights crime. Propaganda may lead to many people believing a lie, but it doesn't make the lie correct - or right.

- Aurora - the green glow of the Northern Lights, are created by a solar flare.
A brief graphic video explains how the lovely moving green glow of the Northern Lights are formed from the ripples of light of a solar flare moving around the obstacle of planet Earth. See: " This is how an aurora is created. " - @ValaAfshar, video . The Northern Lights can also dazzle without a solar flare, the effect is not fully understood. ( space.com ) More information about solar flares: A Powerful Solar Flare Produces Bright Northern Lights This Week, by Eric Mack, Dec 9, 2020, ( forbes ). Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) may also occur along with a solar flare and the energy that is released from the sun can disrupt radio transmission on Earth. " The flare [Dec 7, 2020] hurled x-rays that hit Earth in mere minutes, causing minor shortwave blackouts, according to astronomer Dr. Tony Phillips . " ( forbes ). " In the ionosphere , the ions of the solar wind collide with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen from the Earth's atmosphere.

" ( nationalgeographic ) The ionosphere is a layer of the Earth's atmosphere that is 60-300 kilometers, 37-190 miles above the surface of the planet, ( weather.gov ), and can be quite beautiful at night when glowing with the rippling glow of the Northern Lights aurora. Northern Lights can occur without a solar flare too.

- Power or authority?
To have power over someone is to dominate and use or abuse potentially - to exploit and control. To have authority over someone may also control but with an added responsibility to protect and nurture the person - or ecosystem. The role of human power or authority over ecosystems or other people as employees, in relation to business and jobs, is the topic of an important book about the UN Sustainable Development Goal number 8, Decent Work and Economic Growth, which I've summarized highlights from on another website, see GDP is not a good way to measure National Health , or see the link to the book, SDG8 – Sustainable Economic Growth and Decent Work for All, by Madhavi Venkatesan and Giuliano Luongo. [ 1 ][ Goodreads ] . The role of humans over younger humans involves parents, teachers, and other caregivers. Being raised by a narcissistic parent or parents can leave a child at risk of emotional neglect or abuse due the narcissist's tendency to lack self awareness of their own need to be center. ( 1 ) Young children naturally look at the world with themselves as the center until a later preschool stage of development. Toddlers and infants are still learning that their hunger isn't all of the world's hunger or tiredness. Children need responsible care with safe boundaries based on their development readiness. Even teens can benefit from clear and consistent rules based on reasonable standards of safety with some room for negotiation for special occasions. Medical care is another area of life where we are placing ourselves or loved ones in the power of another person or clinic. They also have a responsibility to protect safety of the patient. Harm is unfortunately a risk that can lead to worse health, or even death. " A recent meta-analysis of 70 studies involving a total of 337,025 patients revealed that the average rate of preventable patient harm was 6%, of which 12% was severe or led to death (2). The same study also revealed that errors related to drugs (25%) and other treatments (24%) were the largest sources of preventable patient harm, and incidents were more likely to occur in advanced specialties (intensive care or surgery) in comparison to general hospitals (2) . " ( 2 ) Critical areas for improvement in the area of preventing medical harm include intensive care and pediatric departments according to the team of researchers who reviewed the 70 studies regarding a total of 337,025 patients. Preventable harm to 6% would be 20,221 of the total number of patients with 2426 of them dying from the issue. ( 2 ) Errors related to drugs being prescribed also involved more than 5000 of the total number of patients. ( 2 ) There are approximately 883.7 million health care visits in the US per year according to CDC.gov. ( 3 ) With a similar rate of harm due to prescriptions,13.2 million people may have been harmed by their medication. Six million three hundred and sixty two thousand people may have been killed due to medical errors - per year. Thankfully that number is unlikely to be the number of people injured annually as the rates were based on visits to hospital type settings, not physician offices, but it is probably a large number. Medical injuries are now the third leading cause of death in the US, after heart disease and cancer, reports range from 250,000 to 440,000 people per year. ( 4 ) Covid-19 deaths have been frightening and are still frightening, but many people are living with harm or loss from medical issues. First do no harm is a goal of medical care and it may need to become a larger goal for everyone to think about during their own daily lives, whether taking care only of themselves or also caring for others.

- Our lane, child trauma and seeing red.
We as a species have instincts about what might be a danger to us or our families. Those instincts can help protect us and also may lead us to fear the wrong things while ignoring larger dangers. *This post goes around the world, across time and space, and covers many difficult topics - the take home point - this website is a template, a site for ideas, a site to inspire action to help our planet and possibly our own health in the process. Income inequality and our environment are linked and both may have negative effects on children. Various links are included in the post to a lot more information, and in honor of the International Day of the Girl and children, and to save time for a busy reader I am highlighting these two sites that offer free webinars and toolkits regarding the risks of Childhood Domestic Violence ( 13 , 14 ) : Seeing red is an instinct for humans around the world, and other species. The color red is an instinctual warning that likely has to do with the color of blood, and not wanting to see our own blood or others. Animals will also react against a red spot and as a group may attack a member of their own species that looks different because of a red birthmark. Sharks may start a feeding frenzy when there is blood in the water. ( 3 , 4 -7.7-7.7.3) The fertility and miracle of life was revered in early stages of human history. Matriarchal societies were more common among early hunter-gatherer societies. Centuries of drought led to the Fertile Crescent aspect of early Africa to become less hospitable to easy living. Warring tribes led to more peaceful ones having to fight back or be killed. Women and children might have been taken into the warring tribe along with other resources and the territory taken over. Harsher child rearing practices may have gradually been developed in the transition to more brutal times. Complete obedience by children and bride-price control of women may have been instilled along with a shift to patriarchal property ownership around this time of drought and hardship. In the book Saharasia, James deMeo shares his theory about the early history of human civilization's transition from matriarchal peace to patriarchal war, misogyny and child abuse, in images from early cave paintings and stone carvings to later more elaborate ancient artifacts. ( 1 ) Modern times have even more people, fewer resources to share, and increasing drought. We also have technology and skills. We still have child abuse and misogyny - discrimination of women. Patriarchy has property, names, and power pass through the males in a family, while matriarchy retains the mother's family name and power may have been the wise woman of the group who knew about healing herbs and how to help sick or wounded family members. Birth would have been dangerous and herbs were known that helped delay fertility until a girl was old enough to have less risk from a pregnancy. Total numbers of pregnancies could also be limited. The women kept the knowledge of the herbs to themselves and the specific knowledge has been lost to written history. Mother figure stone carvings were very common during these early times, possibly a good luck figurine or goddess figure that many people had carved for themselves or family. ( 1 ) With the transition to warring tribes and property rights and agrarian farming instead of nomadic hunting and gathering there was a transition to having many children - more future warriors or workers. Child rearing techniques among some groups became extremely brutal and disfiguring strategies were used by a few that may have been for marking them as different and fierce. Female menstruation became more of a taboo and a control of women and their fertility. ( 1 ) Modern times have retained warring, and child abuse, and control of women. Equality for women and safety for children has been a battle that is not over, while some improvements have occurred far too much abuse and danger still exists. The stereotypes of patriarchal gender roles is also damaging for men. " Don't cry like a girl, be tough, be a man ." Growing a baby, giving birth to a baby, raising a baby is tough work and painful - be a woman, it isn't easy either. Earlier societies may have had some division of labor with men doing more hunting over a larger territory while women gathered edible foods in a smaller area while also caring for children too small to keep up with a hunting group. Biologically women and men are very similar but also have some differences on average. Women tend to be more aware of caregiving and communication needs and also may be more skilled at repetitive fine motion skills - like gathering berries. Men may have more skill at working in a coordinated group and may have a tendency to follow the lead of a dominant male. Women may be more likely to coordinate as a group, but also tend to follow the lead of a dominant male. Biologically that is fairly common among animal species where there is a size difference on average between the genders. ( 5 -11.1.1.1 & 11.3) Averages are just an average and don't represent anyone individual and in matriarchal societies power may have been shared - male lead of a hunting party and female lead of a base camp. Is it working still? our survival instincts? Can civilized people learn about instinctual behavior and develop strategies that work with our strengths and accommodate the weaknesses? Our instincts about seeing red can lead to attack of the weak or those with a visible birthmark. Tribalism instincts include wearing the group's identifying color or in the ancient times the group's visible deformity instilled during infancy. Conehead shapes were purposefully done to children by binding their heads tightly throughout infancy and it would have painful. Binding of girls feet was done for many centuries in China as a mark of more elite women and would also have been painful and disabling. Now in 'modern' times we have braces for teeth that can leave lasting damage to a growing jaw and other plastic surgery techniques for making a person fit cultural norms of beauty more closely. Are we civilized yet? Warring nations or military actions are even more destructive to environment and civilian and soldier than in times of horse drawn chariots with armored wheels. We don't seem to be civilized yet. Civilizations collapse, historically, on average, for a few reasons - population expands too much to keep up with sewage waste and fresh water becomes contaminated and food supplies and other resources run out; war; natural disaster. Are we civilized yet? Or are we a civilization in the trifecta of collapse - we are polluting our water, not distributing food supplies and other resources equitably, military actions are common in many areas or outright war, and we are all facing natural disaster more often due to extreme weather, wildfire and the larger risk of climate change. The planet will survive humans - the question is whether humans will survive human 'civilization'. " Stay in your lane, " - a modern world concept of knowledge or business boundaries - this is my specialty, you don't belong in this field because you don't know as much as the specialists. The value of a diverse team is that the specialists may not know as much about other things and may be too focused, too blind, to other ways of looking at a problem and may miss an obvious solution because the complex one is part of their specialty - or their specialty thinks it is an unsolvable problem perhaps. Problems are solvable and often have many solutions, the question is which solution is practical, affordable, and able to be put in place quickly enough to help with the problem. Dithering, hand-wringing, worrying - doesn't solve problems it just wastes time that might be better spent figuring out something to try. Solutions ideally are tested on a small area and modified as needed until effective and practical. It takes practice to refine a solution and it takes testing to see if it will help enough to be worth the bother while also not causing other larger problems. " First, do no harm ," is a concept from the early era of healthcare attributed to the Hippocratic oath which includes a longer statement: " I will use those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients according to my greatest ability and judgement, and I will do no harm or injustice to them. " ( 2 ) Dietary regimens are needed for our planet's health. Early societies lived in harmony with nature and harvested or hunted in a way that would leave enough of the species to propagate for the next season's gathering or hunting. To consume all of a living renewable resource would mean that it would not renew, would not be there for the next year's hunger. Population growth led to too many hungry mouths, too much strain on a plant or animal species - or drought led to there being too little water for plants and too few plants to feed the animals - and hunger for humans who could travel farther in hopes of finding a more fertile area - which led to more clashes between groups of humans, and theoretically patriarchy, child abuse, domination of women, and more frequent fighting among groups of humans to control territory and limited resources. ( 1 ) Stay in our lane - dietary health is my lane, oxygen is a nutrient that we need from fresh air. The ocean microbes and green plants on the land produce the oxygen we breathe. The planet's health is my lane - and your lane, and all of our lanes. Collectively we need to embrace the wonder of our planet and protect its renewable resources for next year's hungry mouths - to eat nutritious food, and to breathe oxygen rich fresh air. In considering what is 'my lane' to stay in - this website seems most critically important. Individual health and nutrition and human policy are the focus of several of my other sites while this one focuses on ocean health and how technology may be able to help our planet. Quantum physics and ether theory are also topics as well as quantum biology which are topics that may help individual and environmental health if we learned more about them. The focus of quantum physics in the past has been on astrophysics, outerspace, cold and empty, based on Einstein's theories however ether theory would suggest not void, a diffuse flowing ether may be present throughout outer space and all around us, and in us. Science is curious, science is exciting, science is full of the joy of exploration and discovery. How can any scientist not be thrilled to consider new ideas? or old ideas from a new perspective? How can anyone in our modern world not be thrilled to learn that energy may be all around us and part of our health? I am fascinated and share resources and ideas in the hope that others may take the baton and keep it moving forward in the race of life - the stakes are high - survival of human species and other oxygen breathing species. The planet will survive, the question is which species will survive. Low oxygen zones or oxygen free zones surround coastal regions of the ocean and have been found to be expanding in deeper ocean waters. The oldest long term human habited region surrounding the Baltic Sea has led to oxygen free zones at its depths which now have non-oxygen producing microbes. Problems escalate typically, rather than just getting better on their own. Humans need to take note that making a mess leads to a bigger mess. It would be simple to use current technology to pump condensed oxygen rich air into the coastal low oxygen zones and might take a little more innovation to create floating style oxygenators for the deep sections. We can do this, it just takes money. Incorporating aquaculture farms or plastic collecting, wind or solar or ether energy generating devices might help power or fund the reoxygenation machines. We could also just budget for the repair without trying to profit - sustainable industry needs a sustainable income and power stream though so working on a solution that paid for wage and supplies would be a long term goal. Short term startup funding might help get things started towards a oxygen rich ocean and a future with plenty of oxygen to breathe. Shell Oil, Co is being asked by activists to not leave an old oil platform in the North Sea, ( @AaravSeth888 ) ( Berlin to Shell: Remove old oil platforms in the North Sea ) Child abuse can lead to adult revictimization - normal was pain. Red flags for emotional abuse or manipulation include someone being very friendly and questioning, seemingly interested in everything about you - but never seeming to provide much information about themselves. The information you provide them may then be used to provide some answers that make the person seem compatible and just like you in your interests, or flattering about your interests. ( 6 ) I was a child in an emotionally and physically painful home at times. There was also fun and love and learning so I had it good compared to many children in more difficult trauma homes. As a trauma survivor I've learned enough to know not to believe the lies of a narcissist - they believe their own lies - something to watch for and watch out for. When someone believes their own lies, they are irrational and could probably pass a lie detector test. Narcissism may grow from their own difficult childhood and a fake persona is created to feel better about themselves, that doesn't make them safe or trustworthy though, just helps to understand we are all people with a childhood. ( 7 ) Healing childhood trauma can take time and learning self love and even reconnecting to life. Dissociation is a groundless lack of self. The child may have been allowed no power of their own. Control from external caregivers and invalidating messages about feelings can leave a disconnect from feeling those feelings. Reconnecting to life can start slow and simply touching polished stones in your pocket may help, or a soft fabric, or smelling a nice scent like vanilla, which can be physically calming. Walking barefoot on forest soil on a sunny day may also help reconnect to the physical world. Drawing or writing or singing your own tune may also help reconnect to your feelings. Reconnecting with our inner child is a topic of a video by Lisa Romani: Healing Emotional Childhood Neglect and Learning to Integrate with Your Inner Child. ( 12 ) Child abuse, and harm from growing up around domestic violence. Child abuse is still prevalent in modern society and domestic violence in the home setting can also increase emotional and physical problems later in life, even if physical harm is not inflicted on the child. Childhood Domestic Violence - or growing up in a violent or emotionally manipulative home can leave lasting changes in physical health, risk for problems in adult relationships or risk for being revictimized or becoming a bully or a more severe narcissist. Educational resources about the risks of Childhood Domestic Violence are available for free online and donations are appreciated to help provide physical copies to those in need. ( 13 , 14 ) If all we learn is a life hidden from truth it may become harder to recognize truth or even to be comfortable with what might seem normal to others - it may seem suspicious to a person who has never experienced normal. Narcissism is more common in our Social Media and Capitalist Society Capitalism, advertising, and social media have increased narcissistic values throughout society - buy this to look better, feel better about yourself, post a better selfie of yourself to get more Likes on social media - it is addictive and causes a dopamine rush like any other addictive behavior. We need to promote litter picking up contests or walks, not just protests about the need for someone else, for government to do something about the planet's health. Politics has gotten in the way of environmental action and big money is in the way of politics. Anyone and everyone who cares about our planet need to start working together to take action. We are at or past a tipping point. The worsening weather events and wildfires, and infectious epidemic are all likely to continue to be more common and likely to continue to increase in severity. That is the bad news. The good news is that social media and the connectedness of the virtual world means that organizing action and educating about effective strategies is easier than ever before. The Covid-19 epidemic has shown us that many things can be done online and traveling to meetings or even to work is less important than it used to be - though still helpful. Income inequality, climate change, and Covid-19 response are topics that His Holiness Pope Francis brought up in a recent address to the United Nations. ( 10 ) Equitable distribution of resources needs to consider equitable across time also - planning ahead now for a more gradual use of our limited resources and more focus on using renewable resources such as geothermal and water, wind and solar energy. Win/Win Solutions - finding a positive for everyone, not just a compromise. Win/win solutions in the business world on in personal life are not just about seeking a compromise where both parties feel disappointed. Ideally discussion and understanding each others needs occurs until a point is reached where a solution that neither may have thought of on their own may be reached - a win/win. Both are getting their needs met in a way that isn't harming the other. ( 9 ) Currently the planet and other species on it are not getting their needs met and in the process we humans are also harming our own present and future economic and individual health. "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." - Robert Heinlein (Science Fiction author) ( 11 ) Income inequality and specialization are more common in our modern patriarchal society and both may be adding to an unsustainable present and future. I am not sure what conn a ship even means, but might be able to try most of the rest of Robert Heinlein's list in the above quote. Sacrificing the little guy and saving the elite is more common historically in societies with a greater division between rich and poor. Currently the difference in the US range of incomes is similar to the time of the Egyptian pyramids and the 1920's prior to the Great Depression which followed the stock market crash and run on banks. Sacrificing people, or more likely in modern times - not hiring people because they made a mistake is not utilizing all of our diversity and various skills. It is a time to have all hands on deck - in sailing lingo. In a sustainable world we need to return to some more traditional and labor intensive methods and learn to rely less on gasoline powered machinery - while figuring out how to build machines that do not rely on fossil fuels. We have been living the easy life for the last couple centuries by living off the ancient remains of the dinosaur age. Fossil fuels are also used to make products so saving some of the remaining supply for future centuries would be generous, and help the current climate issues. We can't unbake a loaf of bread, unboil an egg, or very easily unpollute the atmosphere, ocean or soil. Let's not sacrifice all of us, or any of us. It probably isn't what the US Marines would do, if they had a choice in the decision - leave no one behind, bring everyone home. Teamwork, we all have a part to play in helping heal our planet. *to conn a ship - stand on an elevated platform (conning tower) and give communication directions to the ship's engineer, and sail lines, rudder and ground tackle.

- Ether Theory? Our ticket to outer-space?
We have a shared paradise with limited resources. The more we can ration the limited resources the more will remain later. We can hope for technological innovation but without it in hand we are only wishing. There is an estimated 25 years of bioactive phosphorus left for fertilizer type of use in the US, and more elsewhere on Earth, estimated to last 300-400 years. ( 1 ) Switching now to more traditional farming methods would conserve it better and be better for coastal ocean water and life. Phosphorus fertilizers made with fossil fuels tend to run off into ground water and wash out into the ocean. The excess can cause an over growth of algae which uses up the fertilizer and dies eventually. Decomposition bacteria use up oxygen in the water while consuming the algae. Switching to traditional composted manure and leftover plant material would recycle phosphorus back into the soil instead of having the fossil fuel based phosphorus fertilizer that tends to run off into ground water supplies. Farming with organic composted fertilizers can be done on more small scale container gardens located throughout urban areas. The extra containers can collect excess rainwater and reduce risk of flooding of urban drainage systems. Porous patio and parking area coverings also help drain rapid flooding rain or melting snow into the the ground rather than overfilling drainage systems. Repairing coastal health with planting of sea grasses and mangrove trees would be helpful along with mussel aqua-farming to use up the extra nutrients of fertilizer runoff in a more useful way. Returning oxygen to the low oxygen areas in deeper water and the coastal regions is also needed to help restore life in the ocean. ( Map of the low oxygen areas of the ocean .) Removing plastic from the ocean and reducing how much we add to it are also needs which are being worked on by many teams around the world. The ocean is very large and many more teams are needed. Sustainable housing that is resistant to the extreme weather typical of the local region is also a need. We need more housing in general, but also housing that is designed with the environmental conditions in mind. Areas with very high temperatures now might want to start making underground cooling areas. The temperature after a certain depth is always cool - jacket weather and a campfire. Sanitation systems may need significant change for low water areas and work with the phosphorus reuse agricultural cycle. Compost is part of the cycle of life, along with spring growth and winter rest. --- Big picture, starry skies vision for the longer future would include the fanciful sounding trip to Mars - joke or planning ahead? Plan on return trips too - with rockets powerful enough to carry materials there and phosphorus back. Mars has lots of bioactive phosphorus compared to planet Earth. ( 2 ) Hazardous, no air to breath, gravity - it wouldn't be a vacation for relaxing during start up phases. Moving there wouldn't help many people and would still have the air issue - but the future is thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years - 25-400 years remaining supply of phosphorus seems like it is time to move out of the discussion phase and into the organic gardening phase at least. Mining to ship anything back is not economically feasible with the current state of rocket technology dependent on expensive fuel - and phosphorus is not the only mineral that we might like more of: " " Almost all of the easily mined gold, silver, copper, tin, zinc, antimony, and phosphorus we can mine on Earth may be gone within one hundred years" writes Stephen Petranek, author of How We'll Live on Mars , which Nat Geo's MARS is based on. That grim scenario will require either a massive rethinking of how we consume metals on earth, or supplementation from another source . " ( 3 ) The nice idea of rockets going back and forth with mined ore would use too much fuel. How do those alien UFOs move around? The Nikolai Tesla/Wilhelm Reich motors that were able to extract energy from the air/ether needs to be figured out - per the Reich description and witness description the process would explain how UFO aircraft seem to be able to go forwards and backwards effortlessly - the Reich motor could run either direction, and soundlessly. Just because humans (most of them anyway) haven't figured something out doesn't mean it can't be figured out again - it makes it seem that much more possible, has been done, therefore it can be done - the Tesla & Reich machines discussed/mentioned here ( 4 ) ( First of four posts on the topic of Reich/ether theory ) The U.S. has admitted to having discovered a suspected alien spacecraft, an Unidentified Flying Object, (UFO). The work of Wilhelm Reich needs to be continued. He witnessed apparent alien flying aircraft during his work with Cloud-busting weather manipulation and his use of the ether manipulating device could disrupt the motion of the aircraft - why wouldn't aliens be interested in research that was able to stop their flying machines from working? The Grande' news - gathering energy from the open air was figured out by Nikolai Tesla and by Wilhelm Reich - and apparently by aliens who are able to use the information to move through outer space - therefore it is possible. We need to stop holding back research just because Albert Einstein wrote some theoretical papers with the help of his first wife. (one of the series of four posts: Happy Birthday Einstein - Gravity ) We can be right about some things while getting other parts wrong or incomplete. Team Earth needs everyone to start thinking how their efforts small, medium, or Grande' can help us now and help the future.

- Ether theory applied - re-greening an African nation, Eritrea.
The theory of ether has also been supported by re-greening areas with drought and desertification. Simple devices have been successfully used to modify weather systems to draw more rain to a region. Caution is necessary because overuse of the technique can also cause storms and it does draw the moisture away from neighboring regions. A volunteer group with scientists from several nations successfully used the weather modification techniques in the African nation of Eritrea. The nation had been experiencing drought conditions for many years and rain was increased several years in a row during the team's mitigation work. The team had to end the project a couple years early due to an increase in war activity in the region. The technique and equipment can be built and used fairly easily. A bundle of very long metal pipes need to be assembled and placed in a body of water such as a river or lake and then is pointed towards or away from a region to encourage flow of the weather system overhead. Most success with changing weather patterns was found to require use of the apparatus in a series of locations over the course of a few days or weeks, or to have several of the pipe devices used in consecutive order across a region - gradually drawing weather patterns in the desired direction to shift the wind and bring in more moisture from whichever direction there wasn't drought conditions. With the increasing risk of drought and desertification a simple technique that primarily requires long metal pipes and consistent access to weather report updates could save many lives. The technique has been used successfully to increase rain in the U.S. and other areas prior to the multi-year volunteer project that helped return rain to drought stricken Eritrea in the late 1990s. See: Green Sea Eritrea: A 5-Year Desert-Greening CORE Project in the SE African-Sahel , James DeMeo, 2002, ( ResearchGate ), or a summary ( orgonelab.org ). Or the book: Wilhelm Reich and the Healing of Atmospheres: Modern Techniques for the Abatement of Desertification , by Roberto Maglione, MS, Translated from Italian, with a foreword by James DeMeo, PhD. ( GoodReads.com ) Choosing re-greening over desertification seems like an easy choice to make.

- Happy Birthday Albert Einstein; Gravity
Albert Einstein was born March 14, 1879 and published his ground breaking theories in physics at a fairly young age of 26. His first wife, Mileva Marić Einstein-Marity, may have had some involvement with the work. Letters suggest she chose to not include her name on the papers in order to support his career in hope that he would be able to find work so they would be able to afford to get married. He agreed in the eventual divorce settlement to give her any money awarded to him for a Nobel Prize (there had been expectations he would be given one). ( scientificamerican ) [This continues from the post Physics took a wrong turn in 1887; and the meaning of Null .] Special relativity is not the research for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921 but he did write to Mileva about it: "But nobody made it clearer than Albert Einstein himself that they collaborated on special relativity when he wrote to Mileva on 27 March 1901: “ How happy and proud I will be when the two of us togethe r will have brought our work on relative motion to a victorious conclusion.” " They were able to marry in 1903 and his five important papers were all published within a short time span in 1905. The first one on the photoelectric effect was the article for which he was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1921. ( scientificamerican ) The theory of relativity was not considered to be supported with enough physical proof possibly. Measurements of a solar eclipse were considered support however the data may have been manipulated somewhat. ( theguardian ) " Problems cannot be solved at the same level of thinking that created them. " - Albert Einstein Quantum effects have been supported by modern research, and quantum computing. The equation E = MC squared is not in question due to the work proving the theory that there is an ether type of energy throughout the universe. The theory of relativity has two parts. Special Relativity involves physics in the absence of gravity and General relativity is an explanation of gravity and how it relates to other forces in nature. The General Relativity theory would be affected because it is based on the premise that space is empty and motionless and suggests gravity is due to the attraction of large objects for other objects. The data showing that there is a drag effect roughly equal to the amount of energy it takes for a rocket to leave our atmosphere suggests that space is not empty or motionless and that gravity is due in part to the motion of ether around planets and other astral objects. The equation E = MC squared would remain accurate in the absence of gravity and to calculate the Energy required to move something when ether is present would require adding a factor to the equation to represent the speed of the ether drag effect. The extra energy to leave the atmosphere around a planet is like the extra energy it takes to swim against a current or across a current in a river instead of swimming with the current. It takes more energy to swim sideways in the current, across the river, and even more energy to swim upstream, against the current. The drag effect of the ether's movement would vary depending on the location and date. Seasonal changes affect the strength, and altitude and enclosing structures also can strengthen or dampen the strength of the current. Hypothetically if we were traveling through space and visiting other planets and galaxies and wanted to know the drag effect of the local ether then we would need to measure it - which could be possible with the machines that have been created to study it here on Earth. Modifications might be needed - but that is science, try something, measure it, modify it slightly, try again, measure it, modify it, repeat as needed. Science is like a relay race with scientists passing the baton of knowledge on to others to carry it forward a little farther. Isaac Newton said it well: "If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants." An apple fell on his head and he thought of the idea of gravity, or so the story goes. Galileo may have been one of the giants credited by Isaac Newton, as Newton was born in 1642, the year that Galileo died while still under house-arrest for a " strong suspicion of heresy ." The Catholic Church was not pleased with the idea that our planet might revolve around the sun instead of the other way around. ( newsroom.ucla.edu ) The Vatican has more recently (1992) stated that Galileo was correct. ( newscientis.com ) Will we have to wait 359 years before Michelson and Morley's null result will be properly understood as being simply a negative hypothesis regarding the strength of the ether's drag effect, rather than a result of zero drag, zero motion? The theory that the universe is full of an energy form was the widely accepted theory for centuries in just slight variations regarding motion or lack of motion. Albert Einstein and Mileva's theory of relativity went against the centuries long belief that something is present throughout space rather than it being a complete void. The math about gravity that rules out any other motion in the universe requires complexity and ignoring anomalies such as Spiral Nebulae that visually display a sense of motion being present in outer space. Other anomalies in space images and expected light signatures also conflict with the idea of space being a void. Why does a nutritionist care about quantum physics? Because our bodies are made out of atoms and any Laws of Physics about atoms are going to hold true for all types of atoms - or it isn't much of a Law is it? Astrophysicists are used to big numbers, biophysicists need to stand up for little numbers. Chlorophyll is the green pigment that helps plants convert the sun's energy into stored sugar - the reaction seems to involve quantum effects. ( the-scientist.com ) Our health depends on our better understanding the biophysics of health. We are electrical beings with approximately 70% water content and both the electrons and protons of water molecules may be shared at quantum speed. Quantum motion could increase the speed of chemical reactions within our bodies, and increase the strength of effects similar to, (but not quite the same as), surface tension which is how water droplets can stay in a droplet form. Our health may depend on our internal structures retaining water molecules in an organized way, rather than becoming dehydrated or edematous (like swollen ankles during pregnancy). An article with a review of current theories and research that support the idea of quantum effects in biology suggests that part of the controversy over the idea has to do with how the size of the effects could be large enough to help health, and that the mechanical, traditional theories also can explain how the body works, ( the-scientist.com ), - my suggestion that includes both of those points is redundancy of design - nature seems to support life by having a lot of work-arounds - a lot of ways to achieve a goal that supports life. Life is a miracle and it keeps going through a lot of breakdowns. Our bodies may be most efficient when quantum effects are possible and simply less efficient, possibly more prone to illness or dysfunction when quantum effects are disrupted or not possible for soe reason. Math is fun, how about some math? - even if the quantum effects in human biology are small, -Qe-, when you multiply that by every cell in the body, -c-, ~ 30-40 trillion cells ( medicalnewstoday ); and every carbon bond broken in the Krebs Cycle, -cb- ~ 120 grams of glucose used daily by one nerve cell (which tend to use more than average, but let's keep going), ( nature.com ), with 6 carbon bonds per molecule of glucose and 6.022 ×1023 molecules of glucose per mole, ( socratic.org ), and 180.156 grams of glucose/mole (let's simplify this info ~ a half mole of glucose used per cell per day, so 90 grams of glucose would have 1/2(6.022 x 10 23rd) molecules of glucose which would each have 6 carbon bonds that might be affected by quantum physics during the Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle), ( sciencetrends.com ); {1/2(6.022 x 10 23rd)6} = 18.66 x 10 23rd [within all of the energy producing mitochondria in each cell, -m- ~1000-2000-,]*we don't need this part because the grams of glucose number was per cell so that is already including an estimate of the activity of all of the cell's mitochondria. then the amount of energy saved by quantum effects for a human body might become more significant -> Qe * c * cb = energy savings due to Quantum effects multiplied times 35 trillion cells in a human body multiplied times 18.66 x 10 23rd glucose carbon bonds = __tiny quantum effect energy savings times 35,000,000,000,000 times 1,866,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = ___tiny quantum effect energy savings times (35 x 10 12th) times (18.66 x 10 23rd) = ___tiny quantum effect energy savings times (653.1 x 10 35th). Six with thirty seven zeros is a big number, so even if the quantum energy saves only a small amount of energy per carbon bond of glucose it adds up when it is multiplied by the carbon bonds of glucose used for a day's energy needs within all of the cells in the body -> 65,310,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 carbon bonds of glucose energy used each day (roughly). Math is fun, it has been 133 years since the 1887 ether experiment that was falsely claimed to have a zero result rather than smaller than expected result. How long will humanity and physicists take before recognizing that the universe is not an empty space and that the ether theory had to be modified but was on the right track?

- Dielectric Orgone Blankets
Dielectric material is particularly good at supporting an electrostatic field while being a poor conductor of electricity - it won't give you a static shock from the electrostatic field that it contains. Solid types of dielectric material include ceramic and porcelain and is commonly used as insulation between the plates of a capacitor. ( WhatIsDielectricMaterial ) Which for the non-electricians in the crowd (me) leads directly to the question What is a capacitor? " "a capacitor stores energy in the form of an electrostatic field between its plates. " ( 2 ) Thanks. It also has two terminals so you can tap into the stored electric field. The plates of a capacitor are electrically conductive wires or metal which can have a difference in charge. A dielectric Orgone Blanket is somewhat like a capacitor in that it has two layers of electrically active steel wool separated by a dielectric layer of cotton or wool quilt batting but it is not connected to any other wiring. The steel wool layers are surrounded by another layer of dielectric batting and encased in cotton. The layers of dielectric cotton or wool support an electrostatic field, which will feel like warmth and possibly tingling sensations within yourself rather than being a static shock from the fabric. Exposure to the increased energy field by using the blanket regularly may have healing benefits, noted for wounds and prevention of common cold type of infections, but for some people caution may be needed. The heart rate may become affected by the electrostatic field of the Orgone Blanket. Use for a half hour to an hour is recommended rather than use all night. Directions and safety guidance is available in the book: The Orgone Accumulator Handbook: Wilhelm Reich's Life Energy Discoveries and Healing Tools for the 21st Century, with Construction Plans, ( orgonelab.org ) . Fluffiness is key for capturing an electrostatic field in pockets of air throughout the dielectric material. Ceramic seems solid yet it is full of tiny air bubbles throughout the clay. Wool and cotton quilt batting is a loose mesh of fibers, and steel wool is a loose mesh of steel wire which can be sharp. Caution, wear leather or canvas work gloves when handling the steel wool. The supplies for a 24 inch square blanket include fine steel wool,no added chemical cleansers, which can be ordered from automotive supply companies. A sturdy cotton muslin fabric cut in a rectangle that will be a couple inches larger than a 24 inch square. Cotton quilt batting - cut in three 24 inch squares. Steps: Put one layer of cotton batting on one half of the muslin rectangle so that you will be able to fold half the muslin over the top at the end and encase the final stack of layers of batting and steel wool with a seam allowance to spare. It will be a stack of three layers of cotton or wool batting with two layers of steel wool between them. On the batting, place a 24 inch length of steel wool down the length of one side of the batting and then gently stretch the mesh so it covers about eight inches instead of the compressed four inch original size. This will cover one third of the square, repeat with two more 24 inch lengths of steel wool. The spool of steel wool in the image is about four inches wide and would make six or more lap blankets. Cover the layer of stretched out pieces of steel wool with another 24 inch square of cotton batting. Repeat the step of adding three lengths of steel wool. cover with the last 24 inch square of cotton batting. Fold the muslin rectangle over the top with the layers of batting held in place by the fold. Gently fold the ends of fabric together into an enclosed seam/hem and pin in place. The sides will also need to be folded into an enclosed seam and pined in place. Pleating a little excess fabric at the corners gives a box corner that helps encase the fluffy stack. The end result will not be a flat envelope but a very short pillow or tall blanket. Baste securely with quilt thread and/or finish the edges with a sewing machine. Hand quilt through the entire stack using a long needle designed for doll-makers. Trying to keep it very loose quilting to retain the fluffiness, secure the stack with a stich every four to eight inches or so. Use with a pillowcase ideally and keep it clean and dry. The steel wool will rust if it gets wet. Ideally do not use dielectric Orgone Blankets near or store them near strong EMF emitting devices such as an internet modem, cell phone, or laptop. The goal is to increase time in a healing electric field, not in an electric field that might have negative effects on health. The dielectric blanket has a warming effect and may help increase blood flow like a normal heating pad, it just uses your own body heat as the electricity source - or a cat - or the energy of the ambient air conditions, or all three. There would be more ether/orgone energy at high altitudes in open air - like in the mountain top retreat and less, possibly very little, in the enclosed air of the basement of a building near sea level. I have found my Orgone blanket helpful for sore shoulder with a chronic muscle cramp, and for temporary relief of pain for a bruised hand and it seemed to speed healing of a bruise. I folded the blanket around the hand and lower arm for an hour or two, several days in a row - which was when the pain and inflammation was better. Anecdotal experience. Dielectric blankets have been used with therapeutic massage in health clinics and with prenatal care by Wilhelm Reich's daughter, Eva Reich, M.D. ( 4 ) and others. Returning to the idea of a capacitor - the electrostatic field is being supported by the air and fiber weave of the batting layers which are also acting as insulation around the electrically active ~ 'capacitor plates' of the two steel wool layers. Holding the blanket is allowing your hand to be in the energy field - no terminals are needed for a gentle mingling of energy fields. Plasma energy fields have been used effectively for helping with wound healing. ( 5 ) Plasma energy refers to a liquid like flow of energy throughout the area of the field, rather than referring to some liquid such as blood plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, involving ionized gas instead of a solid, liquid, or gas. " The fourth state of matter, plasma, consists of partially ionized, electrically neutral gas." ( 5 ) Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are involved in our health and brain activity at the microscopic level of microtubules, which may act like antenna in orienting and broadcasting electrical fields. (Previous post: 7 ) Specific types of EMF fields have also been used for healing purposes. ( 6 ) The type of EMF from electronic/internet devices and from high powered electric lines can be inflammatory.

- Physics took a wrong turn in 1887; and the meaning of Null.
Experimental research protocol requires defining an expected result for an experiment in advance, called the hypothesis, in order to help reduce risk of bias or error. Null results would mean that the hypothesis as written had not occurred as the experimental result - making the experiment negative or null for that specific hypothesis statement. Null does not necessarily mean zero, however. In 1887 there were results reported as null for an experiment regarding the theory of ether which had been the prevailing idea regarding space - that there is a substance of some sort throughout space rather than it being empty and it was called ether or aether. The experimental hypothesis had predicted a large ether effect, a large drag occurring on a beam of light by this ether substance in the atmosphere, enough to effect the path of the rays of light by a predicted amount. The results were reported as Null by the academic community, correctly in some ways, because the drag effect the research team (Michelson-Morley) measured was not what they had predicted. It was much smaller, a twentieth smaller - but it was not zero - their study did support the theory that space had some substance in it that would drag while flowing around a planet, moon, or star. The idea at the time of the first of the Morley & Michelson experiments was that the substance was still and it was the planets that were spinning. The much smaller effect that was measured instead supports a theory later shown to be more accurate that the substance is slowing moving. It is likely the force of it flowing around things with cross currents providing force from two sides of astral objects that causes gravitational effects. Our planet is orbiting the sun in an ellipse but it is more like a children's Slinky toy, a long continuous spiral, then rotations of the hands on a old-fashioned clock. The sun and all of the planets are all spiraling in a group towards the same direction. The substance seems to move in spiral patterns similar to the way water looks in whirl pool eddies, or the sky in Vincent Van Gogh's painting The Starry Night, ( MoMA ), - or spiral nebulae in outer space: ( spiral nebulae images ). The substance that was known as ether has been measured in experiments that improved on the 1887 methods and modified the hypothesis to include movement of the ether. Other researchers unrelated to the original theory or experiment have also discovered anomalies that match the strength of the effect or the energy. One called it orgone and developed ways to affect the weather and increase rain or break up a larger storm system into a lower energy, more diffuse pattern, (Wilhelm Reich). Reducing desertification has also been shown to be possible with the low tech methods. Long story short - there is a type of energy around everything that is not entropic - chaotic as expected of everything in nature - a tendency to decompose and become more disorganized instead of becoming more organized. The ether energy generally becomes more organized. It tends to coalesce like water molecules, and has an affinity for water. It is attracted to water, especially moving water, and that tendency was able to be used to modify the weather. Desertification of land can be a result of the energy becoming non-flowing and unhealthy. It can be easily modified by simple to build tools but which need to be used with caution because weather modification can turn into storms, not just spring showers. This is very exciting information but more people need to read and understand the implications - turns what we have been doing and believing on its head - topsy turvy, let's start over again at Null, which doesn't equal zero. For the skeptics and/or rocket fans in the room - the drag effect that was discovered and confirmed by later unrelated researchers is roughly equivalent to the amount of force it takes for a rocket to leave the planet's atmosphere. Here's the book to read, The Dynamic Ether of Cosmic Space: Correcting a Major Error in Modern Science , by James DeMeo, ( Barnes&Noble ) then report back for a craft project next - a dielectric blanket - no plug in outlet needed, because it gathers ambient energy from the air or from your body energy and can have healing effects.

Before moving on to more creative topics, a few words from Miss Gullible Newbie - the internet, and the world, isn't always what it seems. Email phishing and romance scams targeting men or women are two common tactics for gaining access to a person's computer or personal information, in addition to possibly asking for money which then may be used in international money laundering. Look alike websites or telephone calls claiming to be from your computer company are other common scams. Your computer company is not going to personally call you to warn you about a virus on your computer, they are not going to ask you to let the caller take over remote access of your computer!
