The beets and Kale will have to be "thinned" or they will all be competing with each-other for space. Search Beet-salad stack (see image) for a great recipe for beets; but to get to this stage they need to be cooked first - boiled a awhile....then soaked in sugar. Kale is boring...but a decent "green" for stir frying. it's a rough-textured leaf that's better cooked. You'll see them compete for space...take out the slower/smaller ones or they'll all be small. Thyme? meh...My two herbs worth growing are, IMO, Oregano and Basil.

Playing the "devil's advocate" for a moment...it was shortly after he got elected that KellyAnn Conway announced that Trump and his staff had "alternative truths" or facts that refute the common "facts"....and he's been arguing that ever since. He's where conspiracy theories were born. Sad. Quoting Wiki; ""Alternative facts" was a phrase used by U.S. Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway during a Meet the Press interview on January 22, 2017, in which she defended White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer's false statement about the attendance numbers of Donald Trump's inauguration as President of the United States. When pressed during the interview with Chuck Todd to explain why Spicer would "utter a provable falsehood", Conway stated that Spicer was giving "alternative facts". Todd responded, "Look, alternative facts are not facts. They're falsehoods." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_facts What we need to do - now that Twitter is finally bold enough to "fact check"....is stand by Twitter.

Remember; most of our present oceans were filled by "Comets" - and these comets were the likely remains of other oceans from other planets... If you research comet sources....you see that it's likely that they are mostly H2O ice. To form liquid H20 you need a planet in a "goldiocks" orbit around a sun/star; thus comets are very likely quick-frozen chunks of ocean from other worlds....long ago...and far, far away. Those oceans were therefore ideal places for the evolution of DNA that got a foothold here on earth to have formed...unless that former planet in another sun/star system itself was the result of a similar "rain of comets" like we received when we were young.... https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/why_oceans.html

Robecology comments on May 25, 2020:

This lockdown/quarantine is, indeed, like retirement. And I concur; unless you work at it your body does fall apart. Your gut grows and you legs get thin. Your skin sags, and your chin gets loose and ugly. You get loose and ugly. So deal graciously with it. Or cry and complain...which will probably speed up your demise. It's inevitable. Face it positively. Fight the aging with workouts and a stricter diet - but only if you want to extend your time. If you bitch - chances are good you'll also shorten your time. So quit your bitchin'. Get out and life fully and well. If you get sick, smile and say good bye. Don't go out cranky. You were born. You lived a full life. So many didn't even get that opportunity. Consider yourself lucky.

Charles Darwin suggested they served to attract females, and the showy features of the males had evolved by sexual selection. More recently, Amotz Zahavi proposed in his handicap theory that these features acted as honest signals of the males' fitness, since less fit males would be disadvantaged by the difficulty of surviving with such large and conspicuous structures. https://adirondackanimalland.com/animal-detail.aspx?ID=25

Happy Saturday all. What insensitivities push your buttons hard?

Robecology comments on May 23, 2020:

There's no way to approach a heavy person. They "take offense" no matter what you say regarding their weight. It's just a challenge to make those who are heavy more conscientious. I'm a retired health teacher - so please forgive my "preaching" - but here goes.... They say they've "tried every trick in the book" and they tell me "you're lucky" or "you have genes for being slim" or some other mild put-off; then continue to ignore wise eating habits. Our nation is suffering an epidemic of weight gain. They say we who bring it to their attention are "insensitive" I say we're hypersensitive. If we don't get serious about it....then those who suffer being "heavy set" will continue to suffer. Their lives will be shorter. They will be more susceptible to diseases. We need to stop "taking offense" and get serious.

Theoretically if there was a strong and consistent "head wind" )wind coming toward the craft) then the speed on the ground would be reduced accordingly. That's why most airports schedule takeoffs "in to the wind".

How would you describe white American culture?

Robecology comments on May 21, 2020:

Consider dropping the "white" term. American culture is becoming ethnically mixed with every inter-racial marrage....in a few decades I'm projecting a blend of all colors and ethnicities. But the "American" culture is real. It is unique. We have been at it a long time. What stratifies us more is not so much color any more, but degree of success...and not necessarily educationally tied success. There's lots of money out there with folk who didn't do so well in school...but found their way in to a lucrative business. That's why there's lots of wealthy folk out there that don't seem to be too smart. And that's also why there's a lot of college graduates - very academically sharp - working at grocery stores and other jobs that require little or no brain power. That seems to be the "America" I know.

There's a difference between "Picking a fight" and "encouraging a debate".

And I have been "banned" from several groups; both here and on FB. But I honestly consider myself genuinely interested in the thought processes of those who think differently than I do....and I'm saddened that they fear the debate, call me a "troll" and ban me. I say....bring it. That goes for even the religious who want to discuss agnosticism with me. If they're following the debate rules...which basically says no personal attacks, no name calling....then I'm good - in fact -I'm welcoming the debate. Life's too short. We can all "be in the choir" and agree with all we agree on...or we can welcome the curious...as long as they're polite and debate with "decorum". Here's my go-to debate standard (the debate pyramid, below). Please consider copying, saving, and sharing with those who don't "get it". BTW; Many confuse the term (noun) "Troll" with the fishing "troller" (adjective). Here's my take... One who "throws out bait for suckers to take" (they throw out a controversial remark to get reactions) - is being a Troller...not the classic fictional "Troll".

The #religulous have a point...DNA is too eloquent, too efficient to have evolved at the start of our planet.... ...So I have suggested that we did, in fact, probably get DNA from other planets and/or other solar systems. We know for a fact that our oceans were filled by mostly comet debris; But what, exactly, is a comet? It's defined as a mostly water (H2O) ice planetary mass. The big questions are; 1. Where did they come from? and 2. What was inside them? My theory is that other "Goldilocks-zone" planets - that had evolved water and oceans long before we did - exploded. When they did, their water bodies "freeze-dried" as huge masses...some many miles across - were instantly exposed to the deep cold of space. So their contents were quick-frozen. I'm sure most "died" as organismic life...but their cellular DNA remained - frozen - inside these comets....that traveled through space -until captured by our early -forming solar system. We've proven the veracity of DNA. We've found whole segments of it in many thousand year old Mastadon remains buried in the permafrost. We've recently found some deep inside 40,000 year old teeth. So why should DNA not have come from other planetary bodies that might have, in turn, received their DNA from still older systems? When they say we're made of "star-stuff" I honestly think that might include the DNA that evolved long ago, and far away.

It obviously declines with age....and that's biologically normal. Suggestions? Focus on staying fit. Strive to be hungry and sweat every day. Keeping close to ideal body weight. Be nice to your partner... .and the "desire, and "performance" should be able to continue beyond what's "textbook" normal. Beyond that, there's decent ED meds on the market....my pref is Tadalafil (Cialis) but others prefer Sildinafil (Viagra).

From the article; "While I browsed, I landed on one of the site’s de facto mascots: a guy jerking off furiously in front of the camera. His naked pelvis dominated the frame.... Ugh...just the mental pic of that is enough to keep me away... There's enough weirdness happening right here...

I studied Pigeons in Ornithology in college. Do you know why they're so prolific? Hint; another name for them is "Rock Dove or Cliff Doves. They are well known for nesting on cliff faces....hence they took to our "skyscrapers" easily.

Just curious.

Just watched "The Joker" with Joaquin Phoenix and Robert DeNiro. Wow. The acting skills of those two....stunning. I felt drained after watching that movie. No wonder Phoenix got awards for it.

Diet while in isolation

Robecology comments on May 16, 2020:

It's tough. The food is always close by; the workout and the calorie burns not so close...so it's a challenge to maintain our weight. Keep these in mind;http://www.slate.com/content/dam/slate/articles/news_and_politics/map_of_the_week/2013/04/130417-MOTW-obesity-map.gif

[rawstory.com] Who are you sacrificing?

Robecology comments on May 15, 2020:

Whoopi made good points, but so did Chris. We are losing our weak, our elderly, our unhealthy, but we're also losing productivity ...and to an extent...it's a trade-off. We can either work hard/keep the pressure on to "social distance" or, as Christy suggested, take temps, wear masks, and let's get back to work. We can't wait for a vaccine; that's 12-18 months away. I can't rent a home I just bought for several months because of the COVID19 restrictions coming down from the HOA people - but I still have to pay its' mortgage and HOA fees; so my bank account is depleted because folk don't trust us to do "social distancing"? In a year from now, 90% of us will have "gotten" this infection, and produced the antibodies to be immune to it. I say the time has come to open up the nation...with caution, wisdom, masks, checkpoints, and social distancing. We need this.
