Television Commercials

Commercials on television are necessary in that they pay for the programs that we, or some of us, want to watch.  The fees that these broadcast networks can charge is predicated upon the number of viewers that watch that particular show.

For instance, FOX NEWS, draws more viewers for news than the other stations like CBS, CNN, ABC, and MSNBC, so FOX can demand more money be paid to them for airing those commercials.

Therefore, broadcast networks are in constant competition with each other to increase their viewership so they can increase their ad revenues.

Even though the recent VP debate was aired on CBS and sold to other networks, more viewers watched the debate on FOX than they did on all the other networks.  Not sure why that happened but it did.

But let's get back to commercials.

Companies that pay broadcast companies to air their commercials, do so for one purpose and one purpose only and that is to sell their products to the viewers of that commercial.

Therefore, these commercials must be clever enough to capture your attention in the hopes that you will retain that information so that when you need a particular product or item, your memory will kick in and prompt you to buy this product because of what you remember.

But not necessarily because it is good or it works, or it provide quality at the lowest possible cost.

Commercials are intentionally designed not to just mislead you or deceive you by not giving you all the facts, but they are designed to GET YOU TO BUY WHAT YOU DON'T REALLY NEED OR WANT.

After you have watched a particular commercial, you might tell yourself, "I think I would like one of those.  Don't really need it, but it would be nice to have, I think."

Once, you start thinking like that, you will no doubt eventually buy the product...  of course, you will also tell your friends and encourage them to have one as well, so you both can play with what you have, if play is what the product was designed for.

Other products will put you in a better position to get the female that you always wanted, or the male.  When in reality that product does not really help at all.

You are left with a product you don't need, never needed actually, don't use anymore and never will, but these companies have your money.

If these companies can sell a million products to unsuspecting customers over and over again, there is no reason why they become extraordinarily wealthy, and you are left with debt because you overspent this month.

Negative Time Found

Quantum physicists are familiar with wonky, seemingly nonsensical phenomena: atoms and molecules sometimes act as particles, sometimes as waves; particles can be connected to one another by a “spooky action at a distance,” even over great distances; and quantum objects can detach themselves from their properties like the Cheshire Cat from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland detaches itself from its grin. 

Now researchers led by Daniela Angulo of the University of Toronto have revealed another oddball quantum outcome: photons, wave-particles of light, can spend a negative amount of time zipping through a cloud of chilled atoms. In other words, photons can seem to exit a material before entering it.

“It took a positive amount of time, but our experiment observing that photons can make atoms seem to spend a *negative* amount of time in the excited state is up!” wrote Aephraim Steinberg, a physicist at the University of Toronto, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) about the new study, which was uploaded to the preprint server arXiv.org on September 5 and has not yet been peer-reviewed.     READ MORE...

In Support of Trans

 

There are some Trans Women that I think are beautiful, but they are STILL MALES and will always be males even if they take female hormones and cut their penises off.  

They also can only have breast implants, although I believe that some of the female hormones might help to grow actual breasts which would make them even more of a freak.

There are some males that like to cross-dress as a female and some of them are really beautiful as well, but they are still males.

I am also aware that once in a while, there is a person born that possess the genitalia of both male and female.  It it difficult to say what they are but I suppose they can choose to either identify as male or as female and either choice would be legitimate.  

Perhaps those people could legitimately play either male or female sports or both, but these people are not the norm.  These people are referred to as INTERSEX.  They are primarily located in South Africa for some reason.

Personally, if you want to be a CD or a Trans, then I certainly believe that you have the fundamental and basic right to do so.  I just would prefer not to be a part of your life.  I also believe that trans females should not be allowed to participate in female sports under any circumstances.  However, I do believe they should have their OWN CATEGORY of sports.

I also believe that CHILDREN do not have the mental capability of making a trans decision until much later in life, but I have no idea what they age should be unless it is high school, and maybe middle school but certainly not any lower.  I also believe that the parents should legally be involved in the process.

Again, parents don't always make the right decisions as they are strongly influenced by their preconceived ideas and biases.

A Single Minded Party

 

The morning after the morning after the morning after the morning after is absolutely no fun at all...  and yet, this is exactly what we have been doing for the last eight years.

SO...

what am I trying to say here?

The Democratic Party, supported by all of mainstream media (except for FOX News) has been systematically trying to DESTROY DONALD TRUMP, his financial empire, and his family and each time the take a few steps forward in that process, events change, and they are pushed back.

It started with the Russian Collusion Hoax and the public finally found out that was a LIE...  then the congress tried to impeach him and failed...  Then, the courts tried to convict him of felonies and for the most part failed, although a jury did convict him on some bogus charges that will be overturned by a higher court.  Still, Trump could go to prison.

They tried to steal his businesses by having a judge convict him of slander and defamation with a financial burden that no appeals court will accept...  the whole intent was to make sure he could not get his hands on the cash, so NYC could seize assets to sell.

ONE MAN - EIGHT YEARS - STILL STANDING - STILL FIGHTING - STILL BEING ATTACKED...

So, the morning after the morning after analogy is fairly accurate.

I am not a judicial scholar but there are scholars who oppose each other about Trump...  some support him while others do not...  WHICH JUDICIAL SCHOLAR IS CORRECT?  The one who was awarded their PhD first?

I am writing this not because I like Trump and not because I voted for Trump and not because I think Trump is complete innocent...

I am writing this because of my country's treatment towards one man is SIMPLY WRONG. 

Along with me, there are several people who are beginning to pull away from the Democratic Party because they no longer agree with their tactics.

WHO ARE THE GOING AFTER ONCE TRUMP IS NO LONGER A THREAT TO THEM???

In The NEWS

US launches airstrikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The US military conducted airstrikes on at least a dozen Iran-backed Houthi targets in Yemen Friday, homing in on weapons systems, bases, and other equipment. The strikes hit Houthi strongholds in roughly five locations, including the airport in Hodeida. The US airstrike came in response to recent Houthi threats and attacks on US and other commercial vessels in the region, as well as the group's claim of shooting down a US military drone over Yemeni airspace.



Death toll from Hurricane Helene rises to at least 223 people.

New Jersey's search-and-rescue teams are now helping with efforts in North Carolina to find survivors. Hundreds of people remain missing. See satellite imagery showing the impact of Helene on North Carolina here. Roughly 740,000 people in the Southeast US are still without power, as of this writing.



Spirit Airlines shares fall to record low amid possible bankruptcy filing.

Spirit shares closed down nearly 25% Friday, a day after reports said the budget airline was considering filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The news came following Spirit's failed $3.8B bid to merge with rival JetBlue Airways (see previous write-up). In August, Spirit reported a $193M loss for the second quarter of this year, up from a $2.3M loss in the same period in 2023. Spirit reportedly has about $3.3B in debt.



Breakthrough donor cell therapy remits autoimmune diseases.

Researchers in China successfully treated three individuals with severe autoimmune conditions using bioengineered and CRISPR-modified immune cells from a healthy donor. The treatment marks the first use of donor-derived CAR T-cell therapy for autoimmune disorders. It improved symptoms and led to remission for all three patients. The breakthrough could lead to more accessible and cost-effective treatments for autoimmune diseases.



Largest solar flare since 2017 spotted erupting from sun's surface.

Solar flares are bursts of radiation coming from sunspots and can potentially disrupt some telecommunications systems and power grids. They are often accompanied by coronal mass ejections—bursts of plasma and magnetic field lines coming from the sun's corona (see overview)—that erupt from an active sunspot.

Our Spiritual Creator(s)

 

Sunday has always been a religious day for me, and to some extent, it still is, just not the way the rest of the religious world perceives it to be.

I am not convinced that CHRISTIANITY is the only religion in which to believe.  It is a myth and like all mythologies it has it roots in TRUTH.  It is this truth that does not hold up under scrutiny.

HOWEVER, what does hold up for me is the mythology of a CREATOR.

Now, while I believe that earth has a creator of sorts, I am still doubtful as to a creator of our UNIVERSE.

According to our laws of physics, matter cannot be created or destroyed but it can be changed from one form to another.  BUT...  this is our physics and our physics may not be accurate when it comes to the creation of the universe.

With that said, I still believe there was a CREATOR.

It is just that this creator is not the God that we worship in the Bible.  Creators don't create to be worshipped.  If they are that powerful, what will worshipping do for them?  Creators create because they can.

My creator would then be seen as an extremely advanced (scientifically) extraterrestrial or alien or space creature if you will.  I also that my creator and a race like my creator visited earth, millions of years ago, maybe before human beings were even around and CREATED US.

My creator visited earth several times in the past manipulating our DNA so that our evolution would be accelerated.  I have no idea why that needed to be done other than because it could be done.

There is nothing wrong with the stories in the Bible nor is there anything wrong with the TEN COMMANDMENTS because it is a damn fine template for any race of people to follow and/or by which to live.

Whatever happens here on earth was meant to happen without any direct involvement from these extraterrestrials because they want to study our evolution.  Why might they want to do this?  Well, with a universe as big as this one obviously is, my guess is that there are OTHER ENTITIES like human persons or maybe not like us at all, with which these extraterrestrials are designing.

Maybe these extraterrestrials look like us maybe they do not - it does not really matter - what matters is that we were created by them for SOME PURPOSE.  This purpose is not our own although we are led to believe that we have FREE WILL.

However, by believing in GOD, we, in essence, give up our FREE WILL, and do exactly what He says we should do, hence Jesus agreeing and/or accepting his role to die on the cross.  Jesus gave up his FREE WILL.

Why give FREE WILL, if you want your created people to give up their FREE WILL voluntarily?

As you can see, I have spent some time in REFLECTION...

The Fifth State of Matter

An entirely new state of matter known to be neither solid, nor liquid, nor gaseous is a prediction by an Indian physicist named Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein which has become a reality in its prediction after the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) that has shifted our minds on how we perceive the discovery of physics. This discovery paves way into further research and investigation in quantum mechanics.

How did Bose-Einstein Condensate come about?
Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) is the name given to a peculiar quantum state of matter that was theorized to exist in the mid-1920s by two of the greatest minds in physics, Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein. 

The greatest minds of the 20th century reasoned that particles would merge into one cohesive entity if they were maintained at low densities and cooled to extremely low temperatures—just a few degrees below absolute zero.          READ MORE...

American, The Compliant One

 

Most of us, living here in the US of A, support our country, its history, and its future, regardless of the President and who has control of Congress.

American citizens, who enter the US Congress, House or Senate, make about $150,000 per year and yet after a four-year term, public records show they are worth millions of dollars.

How did they increase their net worth that much in four years?

While this seems to be the rule rather than the exception, the general public must realize that election politicians on the federal level, no longer care about the American public as a whole, but in getting more money and becoming more wealthy.

The American public is on their own...

We cannot stop what is happening and if we did, what would we have accomplished?

Those that have the money, whether elected officials or not, decide and have already decided what is going to happen to the US of A and those who live inside the country.

We might as well simply enjoy what we have and not worry about where the country is going because there is nothing, we can do to stop it.

The poor are simply the poor and will always be the poor while the middle class has a chance to move into an upper middle-class status but it highly unlikely, they will go any higher.  Sometimes, outliers can become very wealthy and that's the hope of every American...  but the ONE PERCENT will always be the one percent.

No doubt, the wealthy have concluded they stand to make millions perhaps billions of dollars when there is a war or whether there is peace...  since it is all about SALES and having a product that everyone needs...

TECHNOLOGY is one of those products and because it is always advancing, old technology will always have to be replaced by new technology...  This happens about every three to five years and soon that replacement timeline will shrink to between one and three years.

This reduction will create NEW BILLIONAIRES.

It is the billionaires that manage the direction of the world and allow certain countries to grow and others to fail.

It is a game played at a very high level.

What We NEED

 

"You don't always get what you want...  you get what you need..."  the Rolling Stones

As mentioned before, I am not a PhD intellectual, a military or political expert, nor am I a successful CEO, or a multi-millionaire, or a billionaire...

I am a simple-minded, 76-year-old retired educator who happens to be a Vietnam Era Veteran and who is currently living off of Social Security with my spouse in East TN.

It does not take a brain surgeon to see, read, and hear that our country, the once all-powerful USA, is DIVIDED more now than it has ever been in its history except for maybe the time around our CIVIL WAR.

We are DIVIDED:

• politically
• judicially
• militarily
• ethnically
• gender wise
• economically
• religiously
• educationally
• geographically
• philosophically
• morally

And no doubt there are many other ways in which we are divided that I have simply overlooked.

WE ARE SO DIVIDED THAT WE CANNOT SEE ANY WAY TO COMPROMISE AND REACH AGREEMENTS ON OUR DIFFERENCES...

What we need is a LEADER, who does not care about politics, power and control, and remaining an elected official for the rest of his/her life.

We need a leader who has the internal strength to do what is right for this country so that she may become united again.

I doubt that we have this kind of leader and that is probably the sadist statement I have ever had to write.

The USA used to be the home of dozens of these kinds of leaders, but they have all died and our focus has become tied to our affluence and only our affluence and how much more affluent we can become.

Our division is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of the PERFECT BYPRODUCT or our AFFLUENCE...  and, our affluent leaders, role models, and wealthy elite cannot open their eyes to see it.

WHO WILL LEAD US?

Enough Already...
