Re: Social distancing

I have a cluttered computer screen. Occasionally I file/delete etc, but often 
stuff just sits there. Such as for example, Bob, your Beach shot from the other 
day. I opened the image in my browser (Safari), looked at it, liked it, and 
went on with reading my mail. That browser window is still open. More often 
than not at least the righthand 1/2 of the image is there on my 27” screen. I 
see it when I am coming in the door to my office room, when I am in the easy 
chair across the room, and of course when I am at my desk. I don’t think I want 
to close that browser window. 

In short, this is a very compelling image. Nicely seen, nicely processed. Thank 
you for sharing!

John - the tax filing deadline was extended 3 months. No rush, unless you are 
expecting a refund.

I filed mine about a month ago, received my refund within about 10 days. At the 
same time I sent in an Amended filing for last year (i.e., 2018 tax year), that 
goes to an office in Northern California, and it may be months if ever before I 
see that resolved.

Mike, much of this information is wrong. Since most of my patients (children

First, fibrosis is scarring, and that takes a long time. It is inflammation 
that causes the problems with COVID-19, or any other pneumonia. Inflammation 
usually clears without scarring.

#3: Not true. Note that equatorial areas are seeing plenty of COVID-19; it’s 
just “bhind the curve” compared to China, Europe, and the US.

#4: The fine droplets from a cough or sneeze take a half-hour to reach the 
floor, in still air.

#5: Make that 2-3 days on metal.

#7: No evidence that I have ever seen or heard of.

#8: Hand washing with soap is the best preventive measure for almost any 
infectious disease.

#9: I’ve never heard of this working for anything but temporary symptom relief.

#10: Can’t hurt.

The symptoms are highly variable, but most often start with nasal congestion, 
sometimes fever, and then a sore throat. The drowning sensation in #4 is 
something I’ve not heard of or read about.

Advice from a virologist, allegedly.  Makes sense to me.

The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can one know 
if he/she is infected? By the time they have a fever and/or cough and go to the 
hospital, the lung is usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too late. Taiwan experts 
provide a simple self-check that we can do every morning. Take a deep breath and 
hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you complete it successfully without 
coughing, without discomfort, stiffness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no 
Fibrosis in the lungs, basically indicates no infection. In a critical time, please 
self-check every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice 
by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your mouth 
& throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 minutes at 
least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking water or other liquids 
will wash them down through your throat and into the stomach. Once there, your 
stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more 
regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe and into the lungs. That's very 
dangerous.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - CORONAVIRUS
1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a temperature of 
just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to the 
ground and is no longer airborne.
5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so if 
you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon as you 
can with a bacterial soap.
6. On fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will kill 
it.
7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink liquids 
with ice.
8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 
minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your eyes, pick 
your nose unwittingly and so on.
9. You should also gargle as prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm 
water will suffice.
10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water!
SYMPTOMS
1. It will first infect the throat, so you'll have a sore throat lasting 3/4 
days
2. The virus then blends into a nasal fluid that enters the trachea and then 
the lungs, causing pneumonia. This takes about 5/6 days further.
3. With the pneumonia comes high fever and difficulty in breathing.
4. The nasal congestion is not like the normal kind. You feel like you're 
drowning. It's imperative you then seek immediate attention.

On 22/3/20, ann sanfedele, discombobulated, unleashed:


in the USA if there is a yellow line where that yellow ison the left  it
would indicate both sides of the road were the same direction, and the
cars that are parked are facing away from the camera... that, in
conjuction with the two moving cars facing each other and the subject
line led me to think the guy facing the camera , in addition to being
over the middle line, was behaving badly and they would collide.


In the UK yellow lines don't indicate the direction of travel, they are related 
to whether or not one is allowed to stop a car to either wait or park. 
Generally speaking, the double yellow lines on the left mean no stopping, so in 
theory you don't park on double yellow lines (though people do!) and a single 
yellow means you have to look at the adjacent signage to see if there is a 
restriction on parking on certain times of day.

See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_line_(road_marking)

The silver van heading towards the camera is overtaking parked cars and is 
allows to cross the central line because it's a broken line (dashes). If it 
were a solid line, you're not supposed to cross it, but generally they are on 
corners or higher speed roads where there wouldn't be cars to overtake. The car 
going the opposite direction (away from camera) generally moves left to avoid a 
collision. There's plenty of room there for both cars to pass safely, even with 
the parked cars on the right :-)





I think it's because some of the parked cars are on the "wrong side" of the 
street. I don't think that's allowed where Ann lives.


So, they'd suggest it's a one-way street with the "one way" being away from the 
camera.

I wonder how long it lasts on paper? I still need to take my tax forms to the 
Credit Union to get my taxes filed. Wish I'd got all the forms together in 
January and got it over with before the sh**-storm started to come down.


Maybe if I'm still alive next year I'll remember not to procrastinate. (If I'm 
not still alive next year it's somebody else's problem, so I'm not going to 
worry about that now.)


Will microwaves kill the virus? Maybe I should nuke my 1099-Rs before I take 
them in? I'll have to call them tomorrow & see how they're handling taxes now.


I note that the Coronavirus pneumonia dry cough w/o runny nose is the same as my 
early seasonal allergies cough ... the runny nose & watering eyes come later.


I guess I'll have them in about two weeks.

In the UK yellow lines don't indicate the direction of travel, they are related 
to whether or not one is allowed to stop a car to either wait or park. 
Generally speaking, the double yellow lines on the left mean no stopping, so in 
theory you don't park on double yellow lines (though people do!) and a single 
yellow means you have to look at the adjacent signage to see if there is a 
restriction on parking on certain times of day.

See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_line_(road_marking)

The silver van heading towards the camera is overtaking parked cars and is 
allows to cross the central line because it's a broken line (dashes). If it 
were a solid line, you're not supposed to cross it, but generally they are on 
corners or higher speed roads where there wouldn't be cars to overtake. The car 
going the opposite direction (away from camera) generally moves left to avoid a 
collision. There's plenty of room there for both cars to pass safely, even with 
the parked cars on the right :-)

 Advice from a virologist, allegedly.  Makes sense to me.
 
 The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can 
 one know if he/she is infected? By the time they have a fever and/or cough 
 and go to the hospital, the lung is usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too 
 late. Taiwan experts provide a simple self-check that we can do every 
 morning. Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. 
 If you complete it successfully without coughing, without discomfort, 
 stiffness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no Fibrosis in the lungs, 
 basically indicates no infection. In a critical time, please self-check 
 every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice 
 by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your 
 mouth & throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 
 minutes at least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking 
 water or other liquids will wash them down through your throat and into 
 the stomach. Once there, your stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you 
 don't drink enough water more regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe 
 and into the lungs. That's very dangerous.
 
 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - CORONAVIRUS
 1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
 2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
 3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a 
 temperature of just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
 4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to 
 the ground and is no longer airborne.
 5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so 
 if you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon 
 as you can with a bacterial soap.
 6. On fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will 
 kill it.
 7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink 
 liquids with ice.
 8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 
 5-10 minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your 
 eyes, pick your nose unwittingly and so on.
 9. You should also gargle as prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm 
 water will suffice.
 10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water!
 SYMPTOMS
 1. It will first infect the throat, so you'll have a sore throat lasting 
 3/4 days
 2. The virus then blends into a nasal fluid that enters the trachea and 
 then the lungs, causing pneumonia. This takes about 5/6 days further.
 3. With the pneumonia comes high fever and difficulty in breathing.

PESO: First Daffodil of Spring

Friday was the fi rst full day of spring, and the temps were in the 70s.
That moved up the spring bulbs in my yards.  Even though the last two days
have been rather cold, Some of the daffodils finally burst into bloom
today.  This is the first fully developed blossom:

I see... but...
in the USA if there is a yellow line where that yellow ison the left  it 
would indicate both sides of the road were the same direction, and the 
cars that are parked are facing away from the camera... that, in 
conjuction with the two moving cars facing each other and the subject

Another difference between then and now is that the crossing has been moved a 
bit further away from the camera position. You can see this by comparing the 
album cover and my photo, particular where the crossing is in relation to the 
white wall on the left, which is the wall of the studio, and covered in 
graffiti.

Also the photographer of the original was on a step ladder.

The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can one know

Fibrosis in the lungs, basically indicates no infection. In a critical time, please 
self-check every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice 
by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your mouth 
& throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 minutes at 
least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking water or other liquids 
will wash them down through your throat and into the stomach. Once there, your 
stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more 
regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe and into the lungs. That's very 
dangerous.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - CORONAVIRUS
1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a temperature of 
just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to the 
ground and is no longer airborne.
5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so if 
you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon as you 
can with a bacterial soap.
6. On fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will kill 
it.
7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink liquids 
with ice.
8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 
minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your eyes, pick 
your nose unwittingly and so on.
9. You should also gargle as prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm 
water will suffice.
10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water!

Nothing to be sorry about.

I've already suggested in another forum, years ago, the maximum

24 hours in an empty discotheque with full fluorescent lighting,
well-filled ashstrays and nothing but soggy potato chips and lukewarm

Re: PESO: Eucalyptus

2020-03-22 Thread Alan C
Looks like the normal Bluegum tree (Eucalyptus Globulus, imported from 
Australia originally) which is the feedstock species for the pulp and 
paper industry in South Africa. Has largely replaced the indigenous 
forests & gobbles up the meagre water supply. Smaller trees or those 
produced by coppicing of previously felled trees are used for termite 
resistant poles.Those colours apppear on the thin outer layers of the bark.

Great. Though I wouldn't have recognised it with all the rest around.
Now, how do I get rid of the earworm... :-)

Re: OT Covid-19 - Ahem!

2020-03-22 Thread Rick Womer
Mike, much of this information is wrong. Since most of my patients (children 
with cancer) are immunosuppressed, I’ve been following this closely, and our 
hospital is providing daily briefings.

First, fibrosis is scarring, and that takes a long time. It is inflammation 
that causes the problems with COVID-19, or any other pneumonia. Inflammation 
usually clears without scarring.

#3: Not true. Note that equatorial areas are seeing plenty of COVID-19; it’s 
just “bhind the curve” compared to China, Europe, and the US.

#4: The fine droplets from a cough or sneeze take a half-hour to reach the 
floor, in still air.

#5: Make that 2-3 days on metal.

#7: No evidence that I have ever seen or heard of.

#8: Hand washing with soap is the best preventive measure for almost any 
infectious disease. 

#9: I’ve never heard of this working for anything but temporary symptom relief.

#10: Can’t hurt.

The symptoms are highly variable, but most often start with nasal congestion, 
sometimes fever, and then a sore throat. The drowning sensation in #4 is 
something I’ve not heard of or read about.

Come Together. But not right now.

I’ve been for a ride around a mostly empty London today on one of my regular 
routes.

This is somewhere I’ve never photographed before although I’ve driven and 
ridden across it a million times (I lived nearby in the 80s). Normally it’s 
very busy with people.
