Here and Now...What's Happening?

Hum hum, found these articles regarding red hair: you want real aliens, look at red hair people

"It seems that MCR1 is involved in central functions in the brain, and we know that subgroups like MC2R, MC3R and MC4R, which are also linked to redheads, have considerable involvement in brain functions. This could be the key to explaining why redheads are a little different to other people," says Arendt-Nielsen.

A range of differences

An increasing number of studies show that redheads are differently constituted in terms of pain perception and body reactions. Research reveals that redheads:
• are more sensitive to cold
• are less responsive to subcutaneously administered anaesthetics [under the skin]
• suffer more from toothaches and are more frightened of dentists
• are at greater risk of developing sclerosis and endometriosis

Flash, maybe you should have washed the dishes yourself, in really hot water. That would have softened up your finger nicely. That's how I would remove a splinter, though I usually wait a couple of days until it's ready to leave.

I tried. Hot water was hurting real bad. And the splinter went really deep. When i tried to take it off, it broke and parts remained in, deep down.

Not all blondes - sorry -red lamant of pain for no reason!! lol

MiniFlash has nicknamed me the "scientific mom" because I usually look at many scientific solutions before making a decision. However, I may not be as thorough when it concerns me personally.

Glad you got that splinter out, Flash

The farmers markets here in Costa Rica are the best I have ever seen in any country.
I want to make some ice cream sorbets and here is what I bought to play with.
The small shiny fruit in front is a marañon which also produces the cashew nut.
The flesh of the fruit is sweet and delicious and the nut needs to be roasted before one can break it open and retrieve the cashew nut.

... my hand was so painful that I decided to pass away - went to bed and tried to sleep while on tylenol and beer....

Flash,

Luckily for all of humanity, Tylenol and beer was not enough to kill you. Pass away!!! You really wanted to "pass away?" It must have hurt very badly that you wanted to die.

I am so happy that you woke up!

yes it was really painful. The whole hand. In fact, it must have been somewhat traumatising to the doctor too. She called me this afternoon to know how my finger was. In this socialistic free medical world (Canada), they never do that.

The funny feeling was all those fast flashing situations I had in my life having to do with pain and sometimes non working anesthetics. As if in flashes I relieved everything - either to cleanse or to make awareness more acute. Then these flashes of torture, that I never had in this present life. Up to a point where today I asked forgiveness to all those I may have tortured in other lifetimes. In fact, I felt traumatised all day today, like a cat licking it wound and letting nobody near. It will pass, it was only pain, the body remembers but not the brain nor consciousness. But pain does leave traces if ill intentioned or if too much of it for too long - leading to PTSD for sure. I am still asking for forgiveness if I ever inflicted such pain to others, emotional or physical.

Anyhow

thanks for the comments, I reread myself but did not catch that mistake

I meant pass out, not pass away lollllllllllll. Those English colloquials are so ... easy to mix up! And beer and tylenol are good for passing out, mostly beer, since I very rarely drink.

Thank you for being happy that I woke up

What would I give to have some of those fresh natural healthy fruits sorbets!

That reminded me of a song I learned at the Farm in Summertown, Tennessee, from the midwives there where our son was born.

Who are the witches?
Where do they come from?
Maybe your great-great grandmother was one
Witches were wise, wise women they say
And there’s a little witch in every woman today

Women had babies and witches were there
To help and to hold them, and give them sweet care
And witches knew stories of how life began
Don’t you wish you could be one?
Well, maybe you can…….

Who are the witches?
Where do they come from?
Maybe your great-great grandmother was one

Some people thought that the witches were bad
Some people were scared of the power they had
The power to heal and to give and to care
It’s not something to fear, it’s a treasure to share!

Witches are wise, wise women, they say
And there’s a little witch in every woman today.

Yes, I was teasing about the phrase, "pass away", but I really am sincerely glad that you're still with us. May the memory of pain disappear...

We now have a dog.
It's so easy here. Once you decide you want a dog you simply take a bag of dry dog food and go for a drive to the nearest village. In every street there are at least two to three homeless street dogs. If the street has a restaurant or butchers shop there might be a half dozen.
You choose one you like and drive past it and say 'Venga' which is Spanish for 'come here'.
Then they wag their tail, and approach with a hopeful expression on their face.
So then you show them a handful of dog food.
The right dog will follow you home.

So this wonderful dog, a mixture between a German Shepherd and Husky, won the lottery.
And when he finished his third plate of food and drank a huge bowl full of water he saw our vast lawn, he ran circles in extasy of having found new owners. My husband wants to call him Pegaso. Very friendly dog.
He will protect this property as of now.
Tomorrow he has to make friends with our three cats. Piece of cake.
He is determined to behave himself and live with us, just to get regular meals.
Pictures to follow.

Reminds me of the story of the Frenchman who went to visit some lord in London early one morning. The butler said “I’m sorry, his lordship is not up yet.” He came back later and the butler said “I’m sorry, his lordship is not down yet.” And the Frenchman said, “Please, when will he be in ze middle?!”

Don't worry, guys, needless to say that all these female vs male issues have nothing to do with one's actual biological sex. And once there was a time when the female principle had become so dominating and out of balance (way way long ago) that the male principle had to take over to keep life going. Now it's the other way round. It's the time of the witches and midwives. The great rhythm of breath.

Flash, next time give tea tree oil a try. Always works for me all right, as I have to work my way through thorns during my garden work very often.

Splinters - If you get a nasty splinter, soak the affected area in some hot water for a few minutes to soften the skin around the splinter. Apply tea tree oil full strength onto the area and remove the splinter with a sterilized needle. Cleanse the wound, dry the area and reapply with tea tree oil.

While I was thinking about why so many are screaming their so called truth in a time everything around us is screaming, I ran into a blog, called "Whisper it", by Zendeviant, posted on another forum.

Maybe truth should be brought in a whispering voice.

"The liars shout, they market and advertise."

A message of truth, brought in a loud and intimidating way, will be seen as one of the same and not been heard or accepted.
Whisper it and the ones that want to learn will become silent and listen.

Just my two euros

Here the last part of the blog

.......

Uncle Sam, deranged from incessant war and greed, is shacked up with Auntie Google and they're as paranoid as any holed-up tweakers. They've noticed that there is no central authority on "truth," so it's up to the nanny state to define it. That's okay, they can kill the internet, kill a thousand matyrs, jail the Barrett Browns, indict the James Risens, ban PressTV, Russia Times, tell my computer is at risk if I visit beforeitsnews. It's all weak sauce. Yammering, noise in the noise.

Just don't add to it. Hush up and if you see someone else hushing up, then whisper it. If you're the only one hushed up and everyone else is braying, maybe someone will wonder why you don't bray too. If they come to ask you why, whisper it.

Poetrize, and parableize, make the most of your metaphor
Analagize and analyze, be a host to your neighbor
Be the guys with only "whys?" don't go seeking blame
"Safety and security" is a television watching a mirror.
Just don't pile on the shame.

Smiles and laughter and a twinkle in the eye
is all the weaponry you'll see from this guy.
"Living well is the best revenge"
Says a well-living hard-charging go-getter.

Life forever is better.
Says love
Says forgiveness,
but it whispers.

Carla Rueckert the channeler of The Law of One passed over last night Big Big Heart

I haven't been able to cry for a very long time but this opened up my heart. Go to Bring4th.org She has been continuing her loving work despite severe health problems never complaining.

A strong synchronicity happened in connection with this. I was looking for a parcel that arrived yesterday from the US and could not find it. I had been searching everywhere and called my father for emotional support. Yesterday i had a crash and was disturbed that precisely this item seemed to have disappeared. I happened to mention Carla Rueckert and Wynn Free who both are singers like me and as i lifted a pullover...the parcel containing a Wellness Wand that i ordered from Wynns website booktalk!!

I went to my computor and there was this e-mail from bring4th that I have not visited for over a year about Carla being in the final state in this 3d existence. I just learned she peacefully passed over last night with her husband Jim at her side.

By the way, can someone post "The Wanderers" with Lacy J Dalton who i heared about before reading in Carlas book she was one of her favourites

[Wind]

Here's the post about Carla, she truly was an amazing soul:

Ulli, I am glad that you adopted Pegaso, dogs and animals are just wonderful companions.

My little dog is my guardian, to be precise he is the guardian of my being.
