Week 11 - Biochem - pollution in the hearts of city dwellers topic

Besides the biochemical aspect of this unfortunate situation, there is something also metaphorical about this situation that speaks to the fact of how so many people living in big cities are feeling disconnected from the power of their own hearts. 

As much as people are being damaged by pollution in the cities, people are also benefiting economically from this pollution. The trade-off is not always clear. I suppose for some it is worth it, and for some it is not.

Weekly detox is important for this reason and other reasons.
The algae nutrients that I presented on are a big part of the solution.
Zeolites and other types of clay and negatively charged soil particles are a big part of detoxing from particulates and pollution in general.

Sweating by way of saunas and other methods is important as well. A lot of these particles first lodge in the fat cells before entering organs.

Week 11 - Biochemistry - favorite definition

Biochemistry: is the study of the structure, composition, and chemical reactions of substances in living systems. 

This definition really speaks to what is really being studied within this discipline. This definition has broad application and meaning across all of the professions that use biochemistry.

Week 11 - Physics - As Above So Below

The Law of Correspondence, which

is one of the Natural Laws

Week 11 - Physics - My E-Prime Day

What my calendar tells me is Tuesday, July 23rd, 2019, I seemingly woke up and started getting dressed for what an email told me is a Cannabis Biz Summit & Expo. 

On my way to San Jose to this summit I passed signs pointing to cities like Dublin, Pleasanton, Fremont and Milpitas.

I found what looked like the best deal for a parking spot and walked into this convention center where people looked eager to discuss their products and services.

It felt like time flew by unusually quickly as I helped work my friends' cannabis booth. The people at this summit definitely behaved like they truly believe in this plant known as cannabis.

Week 10 - Physics - Connection to Sacred Geometry

The patterns that emerge from sacred geometry and geometry in general definitely influence how various phenomena in physics manifest themselves. This includes how flying bodies are effected by the atmosphere. The aerodynamics of moving bodies in general are orientated by their geometries. Form informs movement. The geometries of plants are other examples of how physical atmospheric phenomena is able to interface with these formations. 
Flying animals with their uniquely designed patterns are great examples of this. Their unique movements are determined by their unique forms/geometries.

Week 10 - Chemistry - household chemicals

In our family we have made significant strides in the past 10 years to get rid of problematic chemicals. My mom uses relatively nonreactive substances such alcohol, vinegar and hydrogen peroxide for various kinds of cleaning projects. I frequently use essential oils. I mix them with soap. We use companies like 7th Generation and Myers for washing, air freshening and cleaning. The most esoteric chemistry and unfamiliar chemistry used in our household is probably in our laundry detergent. Our Mrs. Meyer's detergent has the following unfamiliar chemicals: Laureth-7, Lauryl Glucoside, Sodium Methyl-2-Sulfolaurate, Fragrance, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Methylisothiazolinome and Benzisothiazolinone. Nonetheless, this detergent looks and feels better than most. I will take my chances.

Physics Week 9 - Newton's 3 Laws & Me

Newton's 3 Laws have application in my life within the context of transportation. Whether I am walking, running, swimming, riding in a bus or train, driving a car or flying in a plane, it is more important to be mindful of these Newtonian concepts. This is especially true when it comes to driving. Force, mass, acceleration, momentum and velocity all factor into how safe or unsafe one is driving.

Practicing Non-Ado around Mt. Adams & Columbia River

On my trip to ECETI.org (ECETI Ranch) from June 21st through June 24th, where we did 3 nights of skywatching for ET ships, there was much loafing around and pondering the cosmos, so to speak. The towering and snow covered Mt. Adams served as an inspirational focal point. Plus the added mystery of lights on the snow covered part of the mountain during the night 12 miles away.
An instellar labyrinth it was. ; )

Week 9 Chemistry - Acidity, Alkalinity & Antioxidants

The pamphlet we reviewed on this was quite thorough and helpful. Ideally one should aim to have at least 50% of their diet in calories coming from foods and beverages that are at 7.5 pH and above. And around 40% would be somewhere between 7.4 and 6.5 pH. Then 6.4 and below would be around 10% of calories. With these kinds of ratios, antioxidants would be optimized. The vast majority of high antioxidant foods are alkaline. And it is important to mention that foods that have an acidic effect on the body are still necessary in various amounts, depending on the person. Think amino acids, for example.

Fractals as Patter of Complex Systems - Week 7

Fractals are great pattern predictors. They provide visual samples of a broader reality, whether that reality is static or in flux. 

Consciousness out of Chaos - Week 7

Consciousness provides perspective to chaotic situations.

I do not think Consciousness emerges out of Chaos. It's probably

the other way around. Chaos is probably a game that Consciousness plays.

Ordered Chaos - Week 7

Yes this concept of "Ordered Chaos" sounds familiar.
I got acquainted with the term "chaordic" as a MBA student
at JFKU. This term was coined by Dee Hock, the founder and former CEO of the VISA credit card association.

A chaordic organization refers to a system of organization that blends characteristics of chaos and order. 

Dee Hock wrote the book: Birth of the Chaordic Age

Connection between Energy and Qi - Week 6 - Physics

Qi in my mind is a metaphysical aspect of Energy.

Qi can not be quantified with instruments.

And in some cases Energy emerges out of Qi, but
Qi never emerges out of Energy in my opinion.

Also Qi is more biogenic (tied to life forces).

Energy is not only in biology and other life sciences, but also
in the more inert physical sciences.

Resonance in my world - week 6 - Physics

I use the word resonance to describe people, places, things, times and events that are favorable to me. The idea of a situation resonating with me speaks to the fact that I am encouraged by it,  he, she, them, etc. and would like this situation to continue.

Are all vibrations good? - Week 6 - Physics

Whether a vibration is good or bad is not as relevant as the instructions that any given vibration conveys. A good vibration instructs us to seek more of it or stay close to it. A bad vibration is a warning. Therefore receiving a bad vibration can be very helpful. That's how we learn. 

My Understanding of Hypotheses - Week 6 - Chemistry

My most candid definition of Hypotheses is as follows:

Advancing propositions that are backed up by arguments.

Week 6 Chemistry - What is a Mole?

The early and mid 19th century scientists and engineers were looking for a standardized measurement for volumes of gas that were in a size applicable to practical use. Although a number of different people worked on this problem, Avogadro (1776-1856) put in place the theoretical framework through his tested hypothesis: Identical volumes of any gas at a standard identical temperature and pressure will contain the equal number of molecules.
This measurement eventually became known as a Mole and was standardized to equal approximately 602,213,670,000,000,000,000,000 molecules. Just like a dozen eggs equals 12 eggs.
