I hope you enjoy this Ted talk on consciousness and how science continues to struggle to find out what it is. I hope you enjoy it, and are excited to see these again, after a two week hiatus.
Until next time…

All, my brother is visiting tomorrow and will be with us for 10 days. I will not be posting any content during this time, to maximize my time with him while he visits from Arizona. I may squeak a post in here and there, but will not resume publishing schedule until he has left for home.
Have a great 10 days! I’ll be back on the 20th or so.
Until next time…

If you’ve ever experienced one of these, it is bad. It’s like you’re awake, yet not. It’s hard to explain. That’s why I thought Ami could explain it better. Watch this short video about a topic that may plague you. I have always found that the best way to face a fear is to understand it. Enjoy!
Until next time…

There will probably be a lot of studies coming out over the next few years about the impact of lockdowns on human societies from COVID. The lack of exercise, the overindulgence in alcohol, caffeine, and other substances to help us get through the isolation that was forced upon us during the pandemic.
This is a terrific short little video about the impact caffeine and alcohol have on each of us, particularly the impact they have on our sleep. Enjoy!
Until next time…

I love taking a nap! It is refreshing and I feel terrific after I get up again. Watch this short video that explains the best length and time for a nap. I think you’ll like this one like I did.
Until next time…

With all the hoopla surrounding the presidential election of 2020, I thought this would be a good video for my reading audience. I enjoyed this talk and hope you do too. Watch Amber McReynolds discuss voting/election systems and how they should benefit the voter, not the politicians.
One more announcement. I got the second shot for the COVID vaccine today. I may be out of it tomorrow and the next day, if my reaction is the same as my wife’s and niece’s. Just a head’s up in case I do not post tomorrow or the next day. I don’t feel bad at all right now, but we just got the shot a few hours ago. I’m playing it by ear.
Until next time…

This is a long one, folks, but worth the watch. In this 48-minute video, Bill Gates offers some insights into various things we can do to curb the effects of climate change. I realize some of you may not be a huge fan of Bill or believe that climate change is occurring, but my attitude has changed. I think there’s enough science to explain that there are some things happening that need to be tackled. We did things during the 70s as a human race to slow the depletion of the Ozone layer. We can do some of the things Bill discusses too. Enjoy!
Until next time…

I’m a huge fan of online learning. This short TED talk will give you some more reasons you should adopt this practice. Online learning is more agile than the traditional school that can barely keep up with technology, let alone teach it. I love learning and the online platforms available are terrific.
I hope you enjoy today’s TED talk.
Have a great day!
Until next time…
Dave
