I have family I don’t agree with politically but won’t “ disavow” them. Seems childish in my opinion.
I think Kirkpatrick is awesome. The UFO people can't produce irrefutable evidence of alien contact. Until then, it's a lot of "I heard that..."
Maya Abi Chahine and her team at University for Seniors are still doing an excellent job, especially for Seniors and ageism. Am not exaggerating if I say that this programme saved us, mentally , emotionally and physically. Maya is an amazing person, lucky to have her as a friend.
Dr. Coleman, some of them need redirected by me personally. LOL

Wow! This is great and so inspiring Dr William. You’re doing great work. This is my first time seeing your mission and company. Will continue to follow you. 🎉
Wonderful!

April 26th or this year

You want to "inspire and educate the next generation to travel beyond our solar system" Are you kidding? The "Next Generation". Do you have a Star ship enterprise laying around? I'm from the previous generation and they taught us math in school, no feelings. It is about 1/4 of a million miles to the moon, and we can barely get there with a probe. No technology on Earth is currently capable of getting people there, let alone back safely. Most Americans doubt that it was actually accomplished in the 60-70s but instead applaud our government for a brilliant tactic designed to bankrupt the Soviet Union in an impossible attempt to keep up with what they were mislead to believe was functioning technology. Whatever you believe about human on the moon 60 years ago, the fact remains no one can actually do it today, right now. If we got a signal for an advanced alien race stating they were on the moon and for one month they would wait to given us the secretes to virtually unlimited knowledge and technology, we still couldn't get there in time. Now as hard, or again at the moment, impossible as it is to get to the moon, the edge of the solar system is over 39 MILLION time farther away than the moon. This is the difference between walking to your mailbox at the end of your driveway, and walking around the Earth 9 times. Point being, its so ridiculously farther away it is hard for most to even comprehend how incredibly far it is. It would take over a year and a half just to exit our solar system if we were going at the speed of light, which last I checked is the speed limit of the universe with a black knight standing in the way chanting "NON SHALL PASS!" And that just gets you "beyond our solar system". Then you are finally into the space between solar system. Are you just going to plant a space flag and come home? No, obviously the reason for going "beyond our solar system" is to get somewhere else. The most practical first goal would be the nearest other solar system which is over 104 MILLION times farther away than our moon which yet again, we still can't even get to now. Goals for the next generation? Try 100 or even 1,000 generations from now if we are lucky. Unless there is an unexpected dramatic breakthrough in technology that allows us to build a device capable of allowing travel through space at many times the speed of light, then we are not leaving our solar system in the foreseeable future. It is more likely that we will colonize and terraforming every possible planet and moon, and even asteroid in our solar system before we ever get to the point of seriously trying to even go to the next star over. Space is BIG! The outer edge of
Thanks Ira for the great interview! Really enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
It’s from hell, go away ☠️☠️☠️
How did God get invisible?! See how they twist the truth. God didn't get invisible. He always has been invisible. In fact, He is the true Light and that why he has to be invisible. He is too bright for man to look upon this great God. But, because God is love and has mercy on His creation that He sent His Son. There; that is the promised Messiah who was the God-man to take away the penalty for sinners. He saves by faith in Him. Trusting in Him for salvation once we are convicted and confess sin...we are welcoming His Holy Spirit to rule our life. After-all...He created us. It would be the reasonable decision to think this through before you throw this reality out for a Pied Piper that serves only delusive enticement. In the Garden of Eden, the invisible Light gave the garden to Adam who was God's servant and had great joy tending the garden. But the serpent who was the angel of Light before he rebelled against God said a lie that put man-kind into sin. A person can see the real God because they are not blinded to the truth in His Word. The seen god; this serpent caught Eve alone. If Adam was near, he would be Eve's witness to the unseen God and about what tree you may eat from. It was only after she ate from the forbidden fruit, that Adam partook of it also. Satan uses his same tricks and deceit, all, the time. Lust of the eyes. Lust of the flesh and the pride of life. The Bible is true only to those who read it. After-all...it is Gods Word for He is the Word of Life. I thought I would leave with this. The words potential and possibilities are the same. Potential in an old dictionary uses the very word in its first description and adds...possible.as opposed to actual.
Good aspects of technologies always win over bad aspects because those are in higher demand.
Just like any other major technology, enhanced humans are unavoidable. Like it or not, they are coming. We need to realise here that every major technology in my lifetime would end the world. But, every single one of those turned out to be beneficial, overall.

I was in the room on Stan’s JSOC staff when that embedded Rolling Stone reporter recorded all of the conversations, that he later published. About us bad mouthing Obama and Biden. Obama recalled him to Washington and fired him because of it. Stan McChrystal was one of the finest General Officer leaders and tacticians we have produced. That reporter was a liberal democrat who enjoyed ratting out our truthful feelings about the inept, un-military experience of Biden and Obama’s war leadership. Having a President afraid of people’s opinions of him, shows you the kind of lame ass Obama is. De Oppresso Liber. MAJ E.J.

Only real science not paid for science
Why is it then that people who run track and marathons every year don’t suffer from obesity if it’s a disease like colitis, or lupus, or whatever? Stop enabling those with the inability to have restraint and self-educate on diet.
Why ask one doctor when I can ask a 1000 at once?
And how do you want to do it when a) costs of healthcare, even consultation are so high, so people are kinda forced to look for different solutions; b) there are many cases where people actually looked for doctors help, went to multiple doctors and all said the same, wrong, thing and then quick google search helped them. I think with AI emerging you can slowly forget about doctors at all. At least in current form. We will need technicians to get your tests done, measure your values and feed it into the AI model. Quicker, cheaper, better.
Doctors and pharmacists are trained to give people drugs. Very little if any of their education is about nutrition or alternative medicine. I was at my final appointment before sinus surgery. I tried a homeopathic remedy,as a last resort. The doctor said "Amazingly, your sinuses are healing! What are you doing?" I pulled the bottle out and told him. He shielded his eyes and said "No, don't tell me!" After that experience, and a few others, I look for alternatives.

Thank you for your research. I hope your journey is a success.

Has published many scientific articles and participated in major studies on the treatment and prevention of hereditary cancer. I have read many articles about her and give me endless inspiration.
She is a community leader in promoting awareness and prevention of hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. She often participates in propaganda campaigns and community education programs.
Great interview
Very exciting given the difficulty. Although when stem cell research is advanced enough to repair damaged cells in the spinal cord that would reduce the need of such surgery. Or possibly in applicable cases brain/head with spine transplant. I'd like to see more hypothesized applications to this. Obvious patients this would address its paralyzed, diseased, defects or injury. I would also like to see obesity due to medical issues, sexual orientation application. This one actually peeked my curiosity if there is a compatible donor body, this would reduce medications and surgeries. But medically the research of how the brain would adapt to the new body parameters as well as aid in conception rather then expensive lab grown and surrogates. I wonder if a thin man's head were on an obese body would the brain then trim the body to a previous thin state? Obviously this wouldn't ever be done as the health condition applies to rehabilitation and recuperation to a new body.
Thanks for having Eliah!
