June 23

1:55 Wondering if this book, "Buddha's speeches" contains the Sermon of the Seven Suns.

4:37 As soon as i handle food they come in the back and make noise. How they know?

4:46 Now they came real close to the balcony. What shocks me is they don't seem to need to pause to breathe. They run around and yell continuously like a stream for long periods of time.

5:08 Was looking to see if i can find some of them on a google search and found this, however i can't open the site. Story pedia?

5:11 They haven't been so aggressive in a long time. One of them could be her?

10:45 When designing with composite materials, non homogeneity is the greatest challenge.

10:54 Curiously, the "imploded" submersible's shape resembles that of a pancreas.
11:00 I wrote several times about the need for doctors to understand basic hydraulics. Pressure in the abdominal cavity could lead to stagnation or even back-flow of acid from stomach inside pancreas and many other issues, from high blood pressure to palpitations and even cardiac arrest.

Also it was known by US Coast Guard from the first hours it was an implosion right after loosing communications and navigation but they kept us hoping (and thinking) for days.

Also. I believe mega rich people could afford more than flimsy dubious designs. If they were really mega rich.

There are numerous pictures of the past world leaders with their hands pointing in the direction of pan-creas.

There are yoga postures that can induce certain states in ...others (observers) or just by watching. One of them is bending forward at 90 degrees (doing the square) with the back pointing at the target. It may induce stagnation of flow and building pressure in the intestine, with common duct blockage, raising of diaphragm (muscle), twisting and squeezing of the heart. It happens to me daily and though i know it i can't fight it.

11:15 In other words, i suspect it was an event real or not with strong echoes in media, meant to influence maybe our subconscious and why not, physiology.

REX NON POTEST PECCARE

Re-edited April 08 2020.

«In the linear, global, historiographical approach, modern history (the "modern period," the "modern era," "modern times") is the history of the period following post-classical history (in Europe known as the "Middle Ages"), spanning from about 1500 to the present.»

According to the site oldest.org, The United States is the first democracy of the modern world, because it started in 1788.

Many of the principles of the previous oldest democracy according to the same site linked above have been simply transferred. One of them was the principle of sovereign immunity.

As a result some of the attributes and privileges of the King from British Constitution have been transferred to the president. One of them is the power of pardon.

However, presidential elections had to be invented. Due to vastness of country, the great distances and lack of means of communication at the time when they where first held campaigns still last 384 days and they still do so. A very complicated process that few understand. With existent "modern" communications, US election system is now outdated. Nominations are mixed with elections. «The presidential primary elections and caucuses held in the various states, the District of Columbia, and territories of the United States form part of the nominating process of candidates for United States presidential elections

Some of the issues with elections being such a lengthy process is... well, people can change their mind. After one year, people who voted for one candidate in one of the first states during primaries may wish to have voted with another! Some die, some come to voting age. Primaries not being held simultaneously in different states, results in the one state voting may influence the next one.

But in the end the weirdest part is people who are not registered with the only two parties get to choose from only the two "remaining" candidates after primaries.

In most modern European countries campaigns length varies but do not have an official time frame, state does not get involved in nominations and elections themselves last at most a couple of weeks, in one or two rounds. In the first round participate all candidates that have gathered a number of signatures and if none obtained 50% of the votes the first two go in the second round.

In France by example, primaries are still held within the big parties (to avoid of course having more than one candidate) while anybody can candidate if they can gather more than 500 signatures.

But there are other aspects regarding this lengthy process that imitates... a sports championship? Candidates during debates eliminate each other in debates from state to state. The rise of a new occupations.

The professional candidate. Today's drop of Bernie Sanders reminded of this. He was a candidate for many years. With him, there go away some of the best ideas i ever hard of which some maybe would have been survived in other forms with other candidates. I call him "an issue killer". Here is another example:

"Harold Stassen is perhaps the most famous and distinguished perennial presidential candidate in U.S. history, along with Ralph Nader. A one-time governor of Minnesota and former president of the University of Pennsylvania, he ran for the Republican nomination for president nine times between 1944 and 1992."

The protesting candidate.

"Pat Paulsen, a comedian best known for his appearances on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, first ran for president in 1968 as both a joke and a protest. He ran again in 1972 and in succeeding elections until 1996, one year prior to his death."

Another consequence is US cannot hold what is called in other states "snap elections". Something that by example in the UK has happened 3 times within last 5 years.

The age old questions about American elections. Can a (still sponsored) "independent" candidate win against one backed by one of the two major parties? I don't think it ever happened. The reason. The same one year long campaign. Only those having a big party to back them up can afford the costs to the end. Traveling campaign tradition these days implies huge campaign teams with big expenses. I think, if we say there are 20 candidates with 500 staff on average, there are  up to a total of 100.000 people employed by the elections. To those we need to add local organizers and why not, people employed by media to cover each event.

Writers (not mentioned in the article), communication director. Speeches are read by candidates from prompters. The issue of how their donors and volunteers are going to be of course repaid, if.

"A communications director who oversees the entirety of the campaign's messaging, message planning, media relations, and the whole communications staff."

The alternative, a one month long campaign with debates, with two election rounds within 2 weeks would allow way more candidates to participate in the first round, less one year long distraction and fewer illusions because anybody knew from a long time ago Sanders will not going to go into the finals.

And the issue of the campaigning president. Isn't 384 days campaign too big of a distraction for the current president.

September 16

5:20 I was about to figure it out cause all i could think all night was to do something about the kitchen window. Must have had a mental block. Or the window has been replaced. There are large gaps between the window and the frame and the little locking arm is missing a screw.Litter dust is inserted upstairs through the open frame of the in wall heater. From the newly created gaps on top, by laying boards in scale configuration, at vibration dust is falling and gets through the vibrating window inside. The reason it was smelling from the outside. The reason she started the motorcycle yesterday several times.

So they came with "help" in the parking lot at Spirit Mountain. Two Japanese guys chosen for looking Chinese were trying desperately to signal me i had gaps at the window in a way i could not possibly understand. A ninja strategy they employ to show they are helping or others are helping you, when they are sure you are about to figure out something anyways. The ultimate confusion when a strategy is about to expire.

These are not your garden variety spies or influencers. These are masters of deception refined in 2500 years of Buddhism or maybe more than that (Maya, or religion of illusion). They are doing it all the time and not only to me. To whole countries, for centuries.

My idea of Maya is your mind decides what is real and what is not. And as we've seen too often, people are mistaking, mostly because of ignorance combined with rushed perception, but even wise people can't encompass all reality in real time because the mind is limited. The masters of deception use all these gaps to create winning strategies.

"Where other authors may simply say, ‘be careful of gaps in your defence and of the shinobi’, the Bansenshukai tells us how to find and infiltrate those gaps, giving the world the most comprehensive view of the workings of the ninja infiltration arts."

And then the (emergency) helicopter that i first haven't seen and then took off from the other parking lot. Because of the picture i just posted. Superseeding (destroying) information. (Picture is taken in Lake Oswego near the recreation center at Mountain Park (top of Mt Sylvania, an extinct volcano)).

And the car. The car performed better than expected. So they created a traffic ambush, a simulated accident right at the beginning of  the variant in McMinville. Been in that jam between variants for almost an hour. Then i reset the mileage and for the next 10 miles it went to... 49 mpg. Then, the detour. There is some work (i forgot the exact place) on the street and i  had to take it on a very narrow road had to change speeds several times, which led to higher mpg, and at a very sharp turn, a truck was coming from opposite direction. I was thinking to myself. How in the world is going to turn that truck on that narrow road? So i slowed down, enough to see it coming from around the corner, half of his cabin in my lane, when i stopped completely and he had a chance to come on straight road and pull in his, right in front of me. He made a "thank you" gesture, but could not understand why he did not slow down more in that curve. Here, maybe.

One more stop because of an ambulance and my mpg at Grand Ronde was 43.5, best i ever made. In my way back, per total it was 45 (5.2 liter/100 km, of course, gasoline) (and i caught all lights red in Tualatin) but temperature was under 60 and my tire pressure went down 2 psi, otherwise it would have been 47 or more. More than 10% mpg difference with the enhanced contacts. Steering is fantastic, on a straight road don't have to make corrections for a half minute or so.

11:44 My blood pressure is now 165 over 90 after three hours of sleep. Haven't taken it in years (it was always 130/80) though Angela takes her every day. When i went to bed around 8:30 i was 210/110 (21/11, European style) and was really tired and dizzy with elaborate breathing. Waking with apnea several times.

I called Angela and convinced her to take her first (family) sick day from work. First i tried to drive myself to the hospital. I was feeling my kidneys, painful, at every bump that was exacerbating the pressure inside them. But i felt better when i reached the end of the alley and turned around to grab the blood pressure monitor, planning to wait to get better outside ER, to avoid the complications of checking in at this time. Thinking i was too tired even for that. Left the truck on our spot at the door when she said she's coming.

So when Angela came i went to move the truck from our spot to a visitor and when i came back, on foot, i realized how much junk has accumulated in the backyard since i haven't picked anything. The reason i got into cardio-respiratory failure. From a toy box glove, 2 dead rats (per Eradicon boxes that are here for a week now) and several dog poops dry and fresh, to empty cans and about 10 pounds of rotting apples that fell from a three. And the drink i had when i came home. And Angela opened the bedroom window when she left and i forgot to close it though she told me.

Started to feel better after figuring the cause, i ventured myself to sleep, it took lots of courage though.

Still got my nose congested, smoke smell from wildfires now dominates the smell inside (though index is 20 10) and fresh dog litter dust falling from above. My stomach hurts, thinking to eat something going for a walk which always regulates my everything (except blood sugar of course which again i haven't take in a long time). But what. Corn dog is too sweet. Potatoes, too much carbs. Eggs. Had enough of those lately. Burgers. Had enough, i'm out of them also. Pasta, again carbs. Got it. Half noodles soup with added bone broth. Some grated cucumber first.

1:00 I opened the kitchen window to look up and a whole bunch of dust fell on my face, again.

1:10 BTW Angela went to the office the day after my first sim card got delivered "on the porch or main door" with missing apartment number and the card was not there. Yesterday got an email from the office saying i got a package and that could only be the first sim card.

1:31 I think it's the direct effect of the dust. Opened the window to look at the wall and the gaps between the boards they installed and some dust fell over me and now my blood pressure is again 180/100. It's the pain from invisible mineral fiber dust. I think those gaps should be caulked, if only for thermal insulation during winter.

6:46 Masters of illusions. Got images from bedroom windows, on the other side. I understand now why they cut the siding. To put the white Forte flashing under. By cutting it though they created a few other problems. Had to seal the new siding, and caulking in time may let water in, the same as around the window before, on both sides of windows. There is a chance insulation from the wall (yellow in this picture, visible on right of downstairs window) to get on top of the yellow flashing under the upstairs window where it says Drainable, if the wall is open as well, and from there between the gaps of two horizontal boards (yellow above), on the window on bottom. It all depends on each window and what's under that FORTE flashing at the right side of the upstairs window and "the skills" of every individual worker.
One more scene. A few minutes earlier went to show Angela something at the window (second above), a Tualatin Police SUV was passing by while the guy at Apt 3  (they are numbered in a weird way, like in Lake Oswego, it took me a long time to understand, from left to right, downstairs, 1,2 and 6 and upstairs 3, 4 and 5) went in and back from his car, the man also resembles the same actress from Expanse, Frankie Adams. So he/she occupies all the three upstairs apartments, 3, 4 and 5 that communicate with each other through the attic. Soon after, a loud base started somewhere around and pain is coming inside from somewhere.

7:35 So the "man" has finished the scene with the Police as occupant of Apt 3, and is back now in the parking lot, with a backfire of his Savage Suzuki (it always does that when it stops), soon will be officially upstairs and start squeaking. The smell of the gas from his bike was covering all the other smells, but he/she might have fixed it last night and went with it today. I'll go outside to see, but the smell grows gradually and i might be already used to.

7:51 Bedroom window has a large gap as well, this time on the upper side.

A storm is heading our way, pressure is dropping ahead of it, but the Cheddar Creek fire was almost extinguished by a rare, unpredicted rain at the beginning of this week. No, it looks like in their prediction is melting away before reaching coast (click play and drag image to the right).

8:30 Taylor, Swift. IncredibleViews was/is my flickr user name. I was still posting there in 2014, years after i met with her at Tryon park. Unrecognizable without make-up. I was thinking of this song full of subliminal messages because torture is what they are/were applying to me for so long now though mostly only when needed, to get me back on track.

8:53 I remember maybe 15 years ago i had a high blood pressure episode like this. I had a wrist monitor and drove to the ER with 210/120. They haven't done nothing of course and i went around driving all day. Can't remember how it ended, but i know i had a wrist monitor and took my BP maybe 50 times that day.

After that, i was around 45, my hands started to feel dry and they started to look old and dried out. So this is the reason i don't want to take my bp again tonight, because taking it is not totally noninvasive, it involves collapsing the arteries in your hand and then slowly decreasing pressure in the cuff and recording the pressure when blood starts to flow again and i believe it may damage your arteries. Today i read on a forum, during major surgeries automatic cuff takes your bp every 5 minutes or so, i believe there it doesn't matter maybe because the benefit is greater than the damage.

I hesitated the other day when i mentioned Ion Țiriac and Irina Loghin as being Jim Croce and Patsy Cline because is harder to prove and there are even fewer pictures, but there is yet another shooting star from American musical scene that arrived (been recycled) in Romania after "dying" in a plane crash in the US and that is Ceaușescu, who appeared shortly in the US as Ritchie Valens and then, out of nowhere, in Romania, like Țiriac, as a protégé of a high ranking oficial.

There is a common denominator for the two, and that is Hungarian tenor Ferenc Matrai. (Sorry for the old style and broken links, don't feel like redoing anything right now.

Those who remember Ceaușescu's voice from his interminably exasperating speeches (how can you forget) know what i mean. He also never spoke Romanian correctly, with many hesitations and difficulties featuring a slight dyslexia (Like king Michael, Nicolae Ciucă, etc..) and prolonging vowels "com'oooon". Also in English or Spanish. Listen. No, those aren't Mexicans having a good time, they are ballet dancers from Hungary.

They made the movie after i said it the first time (about Ceaușescu and Ritchie Valens) and used a Japanese actor who totally does not resemble him or look Spanish. Because they needed to get people used to the new look of Mexicans that are to come.


11:00 Fake, erasing information.

11:54 Mitul rapoartelor false către dictatori. Cu trucul acesta ne-au ținut și pe noi în foame 7 ani de zile sub Ceaușescu.
