At a BMI of more than 23 kg/m2, we found a linear increase in risk of severe COVID-19 leading to admission to hospital and death, and a linear increase in admission to an ICU across the whole BMI range, which is not attributable to excess risks of related diseases. The relative risk due to increasing BMI is particularly notable people younger than 40 years and of Black ethnicity.
أساطير وخرافات قديمة
فى الماضى وقبل التطور العلمى فى العصور الحديثة شاعت الأساطير والخرافات بين البشر , وحاولوا من خلالها تفسير الكثير من الأمور التى تقابلهم فى الحياة من غيبيات وظواهر طبيعية لم يجدوا لها تفسير مناسب إلا عن طريق اختلاق شخصيات خيالية وقصص خرافية يمكن من خلالها تفسير الظواهر والأحداث الغريبة .
أسطورة الكهف :
وضع الفيلسوف أفلاطون هذه الأسطورة فى كتاب (الجمهورية) , وحاول من خلالها أن يضع نظرية عن المعرفة الإنسانية . تحكى الأسطورة عن بعض البشر مقيدين منذ الطفولة فى كهف مظلم وتعوقهم القيود عن الالتفات إلى الوراء أو الصعود والخروج من الكهف , توجد فى الكهف نافذة ينبعث منها نور مثل ضوء الشمس أو النار المتأججة , بين الضوء ونافذة الكهف يوجد طريق يمر منه أشخاص آخرين يحملون أشياء مختلفة ومتعددة , وعندما تضرب أشعة النور فى تلك الأشياء تنعكس منها الظلال على جدار الكهف الداخلى , فلا يرى السجناء داخل الكهف سوى ظلال الأشياء خارج الكهف …

Dear Ole Paps — yaskhan
I was a simple boy living on those moors with my old man Paps. On nature our hunger satisfy, our roof the star spangled sky. What more could I ask for? My companion, my old man Paps. One day, nearing dusk, before a crackling fire we sat… he sucking on his old wooden pipe, me […]

“SOLDIERS’ STORIES” VOL. 2 REVIEW
After reading the Miller Family’s first volume OF SOLDIERS’ STORIES, I was excited to receive Volume # 2. I was not disappointed.
Not only was I, as usual, proud to see 4 pages of my own Father’s stories in print, but even discovered another member of the 11th Airborne Division represented among the other memoirs.
Most of my readers tell me that they find the personal stories and letters from my father and other veterans to be their favorite posts. In this book, readers are privileged to have over 300 pages of such tales.
The many photographs give you a personal perspective, both humorous and educational, of a time that dramatically altered the entire world. Men and women alike are included in this well constructed journal for the generation we are so quickly losing.

Indigenous women have built a global running community

(Marlinda Bedonie above)
In 2018, Verna Volker, who’s Navajo, launched Native Women Running on Instagram. Just more than three years later, her account has more than 19,000 followers and she’s an ambassador for the running shoe company Hoka One.
Volker had started running in 2009 and soon realized something was missing in the community – representation by non-white runners.
“As I got more into running, I realized how little diversity there was,” she said. “I remember going through Instagram and I saw the same type of runner: the cute, white, blonde, fit (woman) who just ran Boston, and I just felt like I couldn’t relate.”

Police Officers Are Getting Covid-19 Vaccine at Lower Rates (Me: Mismatched machoism will end up with more needless deaths – Political leaders – require vaccines for police and healthcare workers!)
In roughly half of the departments contacted by the paper—more than 40—department leadership was not even keeping track of whether officers had been vaccinated. Those that did shared data revealing concerning disparities: Just 28 percent of employees working for the Columbus Division of Police said they’d received at least one shot of the covid vaccine, according to the Post, as compared to 50 percent of the eligible population. (55 percent, as of this writing.) Source: Police Officers Are Getting Covid-19 Vaccine at Lower Rates

The nation urgently needs to get rid of this nightmare …
Either this misgovernment comes out, or the deaths will accumulate to infinity, because the way the pandemic is being conducted, the country literally goes to the grave.
