18 years ago, I went skydiving in a very thin and low-cut top. That video is that skydiving company's most viewed clip. I look matronly these days but that view count and "I'd hit it" comments pick me up when I'm low.

@DawnsMission @TrumpGirlLove Who funded the study? (Hint: a company that produces natokinase.) Just over half had data on atherosclerosis There was no placebo group If you don’t think any of that is important, you are affected by confirmation bias more than you think.

Why hasn’t nattokinase replaced statins? Joe Rogan discussed a study where 1,062 people took it for a year. Ultrasound showed their arterial plaque shrank 36%. This enzyme stops new blockages and reverses existing plaque. Why not mainstream yet?

@ShieldsClips It knocked that fire truck like it was a toy. Also what’s left of the planes that hit the towers? Do they look any better? Also you don’t understand physics.

I am on my way to LaGuardia Airport now in response to last night’s horrific crash involving Air Canada Express 8646 and a fire truck that killed two pilots. @FAANews and @NTSB are working closely on this, and we will share updates as soon as possible. Please keep the victims, families and response teams in your prayers.

Dr. Joel Wallach said: "Alzheimer's is a physician caused disease." 75% of brain weight is myelin, a cholesterol-rich fatty insulator protecting nerve fibers in the brain. Lower cholesterol with statins, myelin breaks down and Alzheimer's sets in. The full explanation: 🧵

So you mean to tell me, an airplane can go right through the World Trade Center that had steel structure beams of 4 inch plate every 40” using 12 different grades of steel with a yield strength of 100,000 psi but if the same plane were to run into a firetruck on a runway the plane is completely destroyed. Got it!

@MarioNawfal Funny how all the trillions spent on stealth technology turned out to be useless against what they like to call a “third world country” like Iran, lmao. Can’t imagine what would happen against China. USA really is OVERRATED. It’s like a wounded lion making its last roar.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 How Iran hit the "unhittable" jet The F-35 is invisible to radar. It was never invisible to heat. Iran likely used infrared tracking systems that detect engine exhaust instead of radar signatures. Because these systems emit no energy, the F-35's warning systems never alerted the pilot he was being targeted. The suspected weapon: Iran's 358 missile, a hybrid between a loitering drone and a surface-to-air missile that hunts using optical and infrared sensors, bypassing stealth entirely. Stealth dominates radar. Physics doesn't care. Source: AiTelly
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal

🇨🇳🇮🇷 China's military exports just got the worst combat review in history Iran bought Chinese air defense technology expecting a shield. What it got was a screen door. The pattern is devastating. Pakistan's Chinese-made HQ-9B couldn't detect a single Indian strike during Operation Sindur. Venezuela's Chinese radar missed 150 American aircraft flying through its airspace. And now Iran's air defenses, built on the same Chinese foundations, collapsed in hours against the U.S.-Israeli assault. But the hardware is only half the problem. Over 20 senior PLA officers have been arrested for corruption in two years. China hasn't fought a real war since 1979. Their weapons have never been stress-tested because the military selling them has never been stress-tested either. Source: BusinessBasics YT

@MarioNawfal Yes, they have been using infra red targeting for years and years but they forgot it might be able to be used against this jet.

Last comment on statins for a while. It's peculiar how one of the safest drugs we have for one of the most common deadly conditions arouses such emotion and vitriol? I used to be one of the hecklers, too. What fixed me was reading primary sources, not grifters selling something.

@MCCCANM I remember United 191 crashing in Chicago. Different cause but same flight number. Weird.

My friend is referring to the crash of Delta flight 191 while on approach to runway 17L at DFW in 1985. Pilots kinda sorta knew about storms & microbursts, to include windshear, but it wasn’t taken so seriously. Flight 191 proceeded into a storm that had perched itself over the approach to the runway, following a LearJet that had landed safely before them. Flight 191 ran into heavy rain, which isn’t much of a problem, but then encountered a microburst & windshear. Airplanes need wind over the wings to fly. Then they fly at a precise speed on approach to avoid “stalling” (losing lift), but slow enough to land & get rid of all the lift after you do, stopping before running out of runway. If you’re flying into a headwind of 15 knots, and the wind suddenly stops, you’ve just lost 15 knots of speed & the lift associated with it. This happened to flight 191, but much, much worse. The pilots had noticed some speed fluctuations, and talked about it, making adjustments to the throttles to make up for the wind. They were keeping themselves on the “glideslope” to the runway…descending ideally at a rate of around 600 to 800 feet per minute, depending on your speed. Around 700’ above the ground, though, it wasn’t enough. They got caught in a microburst. In a microburst, it’s kind of like all the rain & all the cold air the Thunderstorm was holding onto just come dumping downward, all at once. In the same way a thermal will lift the airplane up, a microburst will push it down. You’re already slow for landing & there isn’t much extra lift for the wings to give if you raise the nose. So, at around 700’ above the ground (I’m not sure of the exact height) flight 191 went from holding the Glideslope at 600-800 fpm with maybe 1-2° of nose down attitude, to falling at 3,000 fpm with the nose pitched 30° up to try & arrest the descent. They had pushed the throttles up, then pushed them up to the maximum, but it wasn’t enough. The L-1011 “Tristar” jet touched down in a farmers field short of the runway. The landing gear held up, and the plane rolled along. It crossed state Highway 114 (the road my friend is referring to in his post), hitting a car & a couple streetlights. Fire began to enter the breached cabin; some passengers unbuckled their seatbelts to try and escape & were sucked out. The jet collided with a couple of water tanks & came to rest, torn asunder. 136 of the 163 were killed, as well as the driver of the car. The FAA took action. It ordered that all new commercial jets had to be equipped with “Doppler” radars, which can detect shifting winds & windshear. The jet then announces some variation of “WINDSHEAR, WINDSHEAR” when the Doppler detects it. If it’s present, that’s it…you go around. If it detects it on the takeoff roll, it’s one of the few things we’ll abort the takeoff for once past 100 knots. If we’re too fast to abort, we’ll push the throttles up & delay lifting off the ground until we can’t, building extra speed. Airports also got Doppler radars so ATC could spot the threat, too. Educating pilots about the threat became a top priority. The investigation revealed training was lacking in how to spot & escape from windshear. Now, every jet has some variation of a “Windshear Escape Maneuver”. It’s basically to go to maximum thrust, stow the speed brakes (which aren’t likely to be out) and pitch up to a known, steep angle. If that’s not enough to arrest the descent, you can increase the pitch until you are in & out of the “stick shaker”, meaning you are right above the stall margin. You leave the flaps wherever they currently are - changing flap settings might change lift, but it also changes drag & so it’s kind of an unknown as to what that will do here. You also leave the landing gear wherever it is, to include down…if you’re going to hit the ground, you may as well let them absorb some of the energy. There was one other microburst crash, in 1994. That’s the last one in commercial aviation.

One of the most commonly prescribed blood pressure medications is thiazide diuretics like Hydrochlorothiazide. What do diuretics do? Make you pee out sodium and water. So, we identified that too much salt and water retention raises blood pressure. Then instead of asking why the kidneys are retaining sodium, we gave people a pill to flush it out. The cause never got a question. Just a prescription that has known side effects that include depletion of potassium, increase in uric acid and worsening of insulin resistance.

@farawaydeployed @ValerieAnne1970 Thank you. Actually, he made the decision based on bad and contradictory information from his oncology team. On top of that, they committed multiple serious and fatal errors throughout. I was shocked by the incompetence and lack of interest shown. Like he didn't matter.
