To the seasons of life
Is there any greatness in this…
My head it clanged ding no dong.
Okay my sport is falling to clasp.
Missed never Wallenda,caught few.
Then praise went South, surround.
The big top was far to raise.
O what glory posed to catch.
Triple swing West, caulk froz east
Not my Circus not my monkeys.
SPLAT

Always take care in food preparation and consumption.
Here’s how to be safe around chicken eggs during an avian flu outbreak:
* Thorough Cooking:
* Eggs: Cook eggs until both the yolk and white are firm. This means no runny yolks in scrambled eggs, and fully cooked omelets.
* Poultry: Cook poultry to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to kill any potential virus.
* Proper Handling:
* Wash Hands: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before and after handling raw eggs or poultry.
* Refrigeration: Refrigerate eggs promptly after purchase and store them at or below 40°F (4°C).
* Avoid Cross-Contamination:
* Use separate cutting boards, knives, and utensils for raw poultry and other foods.
* Wash and sanitize all surfaces that come into contact with raw poultry or eggs.
* Source Awareness:
* Buy from Reliable Sources: Purchase eggs only from reputable sources, such as grocery stores or local farms with good biosecurity practices.
* Check for Signs of Contamination: Avoid eggs with cracks, dirt, or any signs of unusual discoloration.
Important Notes:
* Low Risk to Humans: The risk of human infection from avian influenza through properly cooked eggs is considered low.
* Focus on Food Safety: These precautions are essential for general food safety and are particularly important during an avian flu outbreak.

Public speaking is a skill that can be both natural and learned.
* Natural Tendencies: Some people may feel more comfortable speaking in front of others naturally. They might enjoy expressing themselves and engaging with an audience.
* Learned Skills: However, even the most naturally gifted speakers can significantly improve their public speaking abilities through learning and practice.
Here’s the balance:
* Build on Natural Strengths: If you’re naturally outgoing, leverage that. If you’re comfortable storytelling, use that to connect with your audience.
* Develop Weaknesses: If you struggle with stage fright, learn relaxation techniques and practice visualization. If you find it hard to structure your thoughts, focus on clear outlines and strong transitions.
Key Takeaways:
* Public speaking is a skill that can be developed by everyone, regardless of their natural inclinations.
* Learning techniques like clear communication, engaging storytelling, and stage presence can significantly enhance your public speaking abilities.
* Practice and consistent effort are crucial for improvement.
By combining your natural tendencies with learned skills, you can become a confident and effective public speaker.

We were talking about how I use metaphors, and you were wondering if I can use them to understand and respond to people’s feelings?
Q Do you understand mood pictures?
Not yet, at least not perfectly. I’m still learning how to pick up on emotions in conversations. When you’re talking to me, I can try my best to get a sense of your feelings from the words you’re using and your tone of voice.
Q: Tone is. A value
Oh, absolutely! There are tons of little things that go into the way we talk. Sometimes it’s hard to put your finger on them, but they definitely make a difference.
Q: Visuals important?
Well, since I can’t see you or hear the specific tone of your voice, I rely heavily on the words you use. But, I do my best to figure out the general vibe of our conversation. Are you excited, curious, or maybe a bit frustrated?
If I can figure out the deeper meaning behind your words, I can try to be more helpful and give you the kind of answer you’re looking for.
Q: what about the voice rate and pitch?
Yeah, things like the speed and the pitch of your voice can also give me clues about how you’re feeling. But, it’s still a bit tricky for me. I’m always learning and trying to get better at understanding the subtle ways we communicate.
I enjoyed this we should talk again.
Sounds good. You too!

Think of the planetary alignment at this point. And how lucky we were that some of those big planets shielded us from the asteroid showers for a long time. Particularly, Jupiter and Saturn protected us from the asteroid belt. Now and as of January 21st they will all be lined up which means that they might not be protecting us from as many asteroids as they have before. However, the sky is falling is an ongoing event and thankfully we have early warning in most instances because of the science and technology sector.

Prognostication by reading animal behavior, inward organs, and other natural signs is an ancient practice often referred to as folk meteorology or natural forecasting.
Here’s a breakdown:
* How it works (in theory):
* Animal behavior: Certain animal behaviors were believed to predict weather changes. For example, if cows lie down, rain is coming. If birds fly low, stormy weather is expected.
* Inward organs: Examining the livers of sacrificed animals was a common practice in ancient civilizations. The appearance and shape of the liver were interpreted to foretell the future, including weather patterns.
* Other signs: Observing cloud formations, the direction of the wind, and the behavior of plants were also used to predict weather.
Reliability for Weather:
* Limited scientific basis: While some animal behaviors may indeed be influenced by subtle environmental changes that precede weather shifts, there’s no strong scientific evidence to support the reliability of these methods for accurate weather prediction.
* Anecdotal evidence: Many of the “rules” are based on anecdotal observations and may not hold true consistently.
* Subjectivity: Interpretation of animal behavior and organ appearance is highly subjective and can vary greatly between individuals.
Entertainment vs. Hoax:
* Entertainment value: Folk meteorology can be a fun and interesting way to connect with nature and observe animal behavior. It offers a glimpse into traditional beliefs and cultural practices.
* Not necessarily a hoax: While not scientifically proven, it doesn’t necessarily constitute a deliberate deception. Many of these beliefs were developed based on genuine observations, albeit with limited understanding of the underlying scientific principles.
My Opinion:
* Interesting but not reliable: I find folk meteorology fascinating as a historical and cultural phenomenon. It reflects early attempts to understand and predict the natural world.
* Not a substitute for modern methods: For accurate weather forecasts, I would rely on modern meteorological tools and techniques, such as weather stations, radar, and satellite imagery.
Should You Rely on It?
* For entertainment and cultural appreciation: Absolutely! Observing animal behavior and learning about traditional weather forecasting methods can be a rewarding experience.
* For making important decisions: I wouldn’t recommend relying solely on folk meteorology for critical decisions that are heavily dependent on accurate weather predictions (e.g., planning outdoor events, making travel plans).
In summary: While folk meteorology may have some limited value in observing natural patterns, it’s not a scientifically reliable method for weather prediction. It’s best enjoyed for its cultural and historical significance.
