Perseverance is often pictured with clenched fists and gritted teeth — pushing through, holding on, refusing to give up. But there's another kind of perseverance that doesn't look like fighting at all. It's the perseverance of the open hand. The kind that has wrestled with God long enough to know that surrender isn't weakness — it's strength rightly placed. It says, "I don't understand, but I trust You. I can't see it, but I yield to it." And in that yielding, there's a peace nothing else can give. What would it look like for you to persevere with open hands today?

@DrJackKruse And when an adult pulled our ear as a kid, did it shake some of that deuterium loose. LOL

Transauricular VNS easier and cheaper.

@NWSOmaha Marble hail between Crete and Denton

Severe thunderstorms continue to move through the area this evening. We would appreciate any storm reports. Let us know if you receive hail, wind, damage, etc. Let us know how large any hail is, how strong the winds are, your location and the time the event occurred. #newx #iawx

Somewhere along the way, we start trading possibility for predictability. The dream gets shelved, the laughter quiets, the curiosity dims. We're still breathing — but somehow, less alive. God didn't give us today so we could merely survive it. He gave it as a gift, full of His presence and purpose. Whatever your age, whatever your season, whatever you've already given up on — there's still life to be lived, still love to be given, still wonder to be found in the ordinary. What's one thing you'd love to do again — and what would it look like to start this week?

We tend to read our hardest seasons as evidence that something has gone wrong. The job loss, the diagnosis, the prayer that hasn't been answered the way we hoped — surely these are detours from God's good plan. But Scripture tells a different story. The very things we'd never have chosen are often the very things God uses to grow us into who we were always meant to be. Trials aren't the interruption of grace. Sometimes they're the delivery vehicle for it. What growth has come through a trial you'd never have chosen?

@DrJackKruse I can hear the next commercial, “Prevent dementia! Get your pneumonia vaccine today!”

The five-to-six-year delay between the infection and the clinical manifestation of dementia highlighted by the Helsinki researchers represents the precise chronological window required for deuterium-induced neurovascular breakdown. The Endothelial Leak: The endothelial cells forming the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) rely on continuous, high-volume ATP production to maintain the tight junctions that isolate the brain from systemic toxins. As these cells are hit by the post-infection deuterium wave, their local ATP synthesis collapses. The tight junctions loosen, causing prolonged, pathogenic vascular leakage. Deuterated Aggregate Formation: Deprived of mitochondrial energy, neurons can no longer operate the high-voltage ubiquitin-proteasome system required to clear misfolded proteins. The brain attempts to isolate these non-functional, deuterium-overloaded proteins and damaged mitochondrial fragments by wrapping them in dense, protective matrices. Centralized science labels these defensive, structural "garbage bags" as Amyloid-beta plaques and Tau tangles, completely missing that they are merely the physical ash left behind by a sub-molecular deuterium fire.

@DrJackKruse “Listening”….. hahahaha. No pun intended, right?

Anyone with melanin their stria vascularis listening?

This is the heart of the gospel: we are fully known and fully loved. Not loved because God doesn't see—loved because He does. He sees the doubt, the resentment, the secret struggle, the failure you can't forgive yourself for. And He doesn't flinch. He moves closer. There is no part of you so unwelcome that it could push Him away. What does it mean to you that God fully knows you — and stays?

Le miracle invisible et ultra-précis de l’allaitement. Quand ton bébé tète, il ne fait pas que boire le lait. Grâce à la succion, une petite quantité de sa salive remonte dans le sein de la maman (on appelle ça le rétroflux ou backwash). Et là, c’est de la pure magie biologique : cette salive parle directement au sein. Elle déclenche une réponse immunitaire ultra-rapide qui va adapter le lait pour la tétée suivante : - Augmentation des anticorps spécifiques (IgA) ciblés exactement contre les virus ou bactéries que le bébé est en train de combattre. - Plus de globules blancs : macrophages et leucocytes pour renforcer ses défenses. - Production de substances antibactériennes puissantes : du peroxyde d’hydrogène (H₂O₂) et tout le système lactoperoxydase qui agit comme un véritable désinfectant naturel. - Adaptation du microbiote oral du bébé pour mieux équilibrer sa flore buccale et intestinale. C’est une véritable conversation en temps réel entre l’enfant et sa mère. Le bébé passe commande de ce dont il a besoin pour se protéger, et le sein de la maman livre précisément la bonne formule dans le lait suivant. Ce mécanisme a été documenté par des études scientifiques sérieuses. La nature a inventé un système d’une précision folle que même la médecine moderne peine encore à égaler. Respect total et admiration infinie pour toutes les mamans qui allaitent. Vous êtes en train de piloter l’un des programmes immunitaires les plus sophistiqués de l’évolution humaine. La nature est bien plus intelligente que nous.

@LnkParksRec A coyote crossed the bike path below Holmes lake dam. It wasn’t putting weight on a hind leg.

🚧 TRAIL CLOSURE 🚧 Portions of the Rock Island Trail next to Cascade Fountain and the Billy Wolff Trail underpass at 27th St. and Capital Pkwy will temporarily close on Wed., April 8, for railing work. Closures will be marked, and area is expected to reopen Thursday, 4/9.

Open hands feel risky. We've spent so much energy holding on, to the relationship, the plan, the outcome we'd carefully scripted, that letting go feels like losing. But here's the quiet truth: God isn't in the business of taking things from us. He's in the business of trading lesser things for greater ones, a tighter grip for deeper trust, a small dream for a bigger purpose, our timing for His. Release isn't loss. It's an exchange we don't yet have eyes to see. Are you trusting Him today?

What happens when your designer has never used the internet? My 8 year old and I designed a progress bar for our dashboard. His idea was so unexpected. He wasn't thinking outside of the box. He just was never in one to begin with. Read the full story at the link below.

Surrender isn't a one-time decision; it's a daily one. The cross we're called to take up isn't picked up once and carried forever; it's picked up again each morning. And the beautiful paradox is that the very thing we resist (giving up control) is the doorway to the freedom we've been longing for. When Christ is in charge, we finally stop carrying weights that were never ours to bear.

If you could see one year into your future right now, every loss, every interruption, every hard conversation, would you really want to? We think we want certainty. We pray for it, plan for it, grasp for it. But what we'd do with full knowledge of tomorrow is probably worry ourselves into paralysis today. God's mercy hides what we couldn't yet bear and gives us exactly what we need for this day—daily bread, daily strength, daily grace. Trust isn't built on knowing the road; it's built on knowing the One who walks it with you. "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." — Matthew 6:34

Following Jesus was never a promise of a pain-free life. It's a promise of His presence through the pain. The most radiant believers aren't the ones who've avoided sorrow. They're the ones who've learned to hold joy and grief in the same hand. Their hope doesn't deny the tears; it endures them. That kind of faith preaches without saying a word. "You will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy." — John 16:20 Who in your life has modeled this kind of joy-through-tears? What did you learn from them?

@DrJackKruse Years ago I saw it postulated there was a 4th state of water. They described it as a gel that needed to be melted. Myofascial release was the use of body energy/electricity to melt it, increasing well-being. Now I see you talk about thick water, but in greater detail. Connected?

Dermatology is wrong about the sun. And it's killing people. I'm a dermatologist. 226 publications. I should know. Avoiding the sun increases the risk of dying as much as being a smoker. We can fix it. For decades, dermatology's message has been simple: avoid the sun. Wear sunscreen. Seek shade. UV causes skin cancer. End of discussion. That message is incomplete and outdated. People are dying because of it. Lots of people. The evidence has gotten strong enough that the field needs to update it.🧵

Have you ever tried to argue someone into seeing differently? It rarely works. But place a candle in a dark room and watch what happens, no debate required. There's something quietly powerful about a life that simply shines. You don't have to convince people of Christ's goodness with clever arguments or polished words. When His light is in you, it does its own work, drawing the lost, comforting the weary, exposing what needed to be seen all along. Your kindness in a hard moment, your steadiness in a crisis, your hope when others have given up...these speak louder than any sermon. Where is God asking you to simply shine this week, without explanation or defense?

@DrJackKruse @EthicalSkeptic How do these minerals in underground aquifers fit in with this? We have a plethora of manganese…some nickel in our well water.

Wisest question anyone has asked today in the picture below. If you are buying an EV it is akin to supporting COVID jabs in my world view. Why? @EthicalSkeptic My short answer is:  We must keep the "Z-Axis" fed, or the "Y-Axis" will go dark. ​ THE DECENTRALIZED EXPLANANTION The SAA represents the mouth of the dynamo.  And right now it is being forced to consume a bad diet.  The SAA results from "Isotopic Malnutrition" of the planetary dynamo, in my opinion. I’ve just identified that the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) isn't just a "weak spot"; it is a Metabolic Deficiency in the Earth's engine caused by the Tectonic Consumption of "mineral-depleted" crust. In my framework, the Dynamo is a "Mitochondrial Piston" on a planetary scale. If the "plate" it is currently "eating" has been stripped of its polymetallic nodules (its geobatteries), the stator fails, the Z-axis vortex stalls, and you get the "Darkness" of the SAA. 1. The Tectonic "Feeding" of the Dynamo The Earth’s magnetic field is generated by the outer core, but it is Inductively Coupled to the mantle and the crust. The Consumption: As the South American and African plates are "recycled" via subduction, they provide the "doping" for the convection currents of the outer core. The Missing Atoms: If the crust being consumed under the South Atlantic was historically "starved" of cobalt, nickel, and manganese (the high-conductance geobattery atoms), the Dielectric Constant of the local dynamo drops. The Stall: Without these atoms to act as the "Spark Plugs" for the planetary electrolysis, the Z-axis"slips." The field weakens (22,094 nT), and the SAA is born. It is a "Lattice-Lock" of the Earth's interior. 2. The SAA as a "Mineral Dead Zone" Here is my key point: the plates move. The Drift: The SAA is drifting westward. This suggests that the Core-Mantle Boundary (CMB) under the South Atlantic is currently "digesting" a section of crust that is Isotopically Heavy and Mineral Light. The "Dark Oxygen" Link: If the "Geobatteries" on the surface (the nodules) are the proof that electricity splits the water, then their absence in the "recycled" crust means the Dynamo has lost its ability to maintain the "160 Dielectric" of the local core. 3. The 540 MY Slide and the "Mineral Pulse" The Cambrian Explosion coincided with a massive increase in Tectonic Activity and "Mineralization." The Reboot: The "pinning" of the dynamo 540 million years ago was likely triggered by the core "eating" a particularly rich "dopant" layer of the crust, which provided the torque needed to surge the 160THz signal of the planet. The Reverse-Cambrian (Today): We are now "eating" the leftovers. The "Current of Injury" in the South Atlantic is the result of the dynamo trying to run on "Low-Octane" silt. 4. Why Centralized Science Misses the Connection Geophysicists treat the plates as "rocks" and the dynamo as "molten iron." They ignore the Solid-State Physics of the interface. The Semiconductor Earth: The mantle-core boundary is a High-Pressure Semiconductor. If you change the "doping" (the atoms in the plate), you change the Band Gap of the planetary engine. The SAA Flashover: The SAA is a "Dielectric Flashover" of the Earth's interior because the "insulation" (the mineral balance) has failed. 5. The Decentralized  Synthesis: The "Irony" of Mining This makes the mining of deep-sea nodules even more catastrophic. The Future Stall: By stripping the ocean floor today, we are ensuring that in 50-100 million years, when that crust is subducted, the Dynamo will have another "Stall" event.  I bet you did not know we are stripping the ocean beds for Elon Musk. The International Seabed Authority (ISA) has granted several exploration contracts specifically for the Atlantic, focusing on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and regions extending from South Africa toward South America. These areas are targeted for polymetallic nodules and cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts, both of which are critical for EV battery production. ​ I found this out on my world cruise to South America and in Suriname specifically. ​ The connection between deep-sea mining and my "Isotopic Malnutrition" thesis finds support in three key areas: Tectonic Recycling & Depletion: The South Atlantic Anomaly is geographically defined by a magnetic field strength below 32,000 nT. This weakening is tied to chaotic iron flows at the core-mantle boundary, where the subduction of mineral-rich plates provides the "doping" for the planetary dynamo. The "Geobattery" Removal: The discovery of dark oxygen proves that these polymetallic nodulesfunction as natural batteries that split water via electrolysis. Removing these from exploration zones like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge essentially unplugs the local dielectric rectifier of the planet. Industrial Alignment: Companies like The Metals Company and national agencies are aggressively pursuing these minerals to meet the 500% increase in mineral demand for green technology. HOW DUMB ARE MODERN CENTRALIZED HUMANS? ​ This creates the Biophysical Paradox: we are mining the nodules, the very oxygen generators and magnetic "dopants" of the deep, to build EV batteries that will eventually be recycled back into the mantle. As the SAA expands westward, it is "digesting" a section of the Atlantic crust that is being systematically stripped of its magnetic gears.  So if you buy a TESLA it is akin to supporting COVID jabs to me. ​ The SAA is a "Magnetic Starvation Zone." By harvesting the polymetallic geobatteries, we are ensures the dynamo lacks the conductive atoms to maintain the Z-axis vortex of the planet.  This means that the "Green Revolution" is physically engineering the next Magnetic Pole Reversal by starving the subduction engine.  This might create a the "Planetary Out-of-Balance" event. My hypothesis bridges the gap between Hapgood’s Earth Crustal Displacement (ECDO) theory and modern Geodynamic Dynamo physics. If the Earth is a "spinning top," then removing mass (nodules) from the Atlantic and "re-stocking" it in subduction zones isn't just a chemical loss; it is a Torque Imbalance that can, hypothetically, trigger a True Polar Wander (TPW) or a magnetic flip down the road.  This is something Ethical Skeptic has talked about but not in relation to the oceans floor stripping of EV metals at the same time the magentic poles is losing ice. The Immediate Feedback: But because of the Inductive Coupling, removing the geobatteries now further weakens the Universal Stator today, accelerating the "Siberian Jerk." My Decentralized Conclusion: The SAA is the "Nutritional Scurvy" of the Planet. The dynamo is "missing the key atoms" on the periodic table required to keep the Z-axis vortex coherent. We are watching a "Topological Meltdown" caused by 4 billion years of "Isotopic Silt" finally reaching the engine's intake.
