Exercise is just not done 3-4 times a day. Eating is. Calories in - calories out. If you can't huff and puff and work up a sweat 3-4 times a day... just cut down on the calories in. The problem is...our eating habits are primal. Our parents genetics has a lot to do with it. What they fed us before we could walk and talk set the pattern for us. No wonder it's harder to "get off" junk food than to "get off" heroin.

I'm a retired science and Health teacher. Two of my greatest honors in life were NSF grants to study the "population Explosion" in '71 and earning permanent Health educator certification by passing a bank of tests in NY state around the same time. One of the studies I did concluded that the growing obesity problem in America has a simple explanation.... Enthusiastic, well meaning parents. What they fed us....and how often...set our diet patterns for life. Our diet and eating habits formed before we could walk and talk; so it was our parents who determined this. Now this doesn't mean be angry with your parents. They did the best they could with what they knew. What it does signify is that parents have a profound influence on our diet habits. There IS such a thing as "spoiling" a child. This almost pre-toddler habit formation explains why most diets don't work - the habits are so deep-seated it's hard to change. Let me end this with a GIF map of the growth of US obesity from the mid '80's to recently; http://www.slate.com/content/dam/slate/articles/news_and_politics/map_of_the_week/2013/04/130417-MOTW-obesity-map.gif

(Timothy Hill Children's ranch....google them). They're very strongly "Christian" yet they just live such a humble life...they just give to a growing number of kids who've struggled in schools, courts, and foster homes...and their charitable views are just phenomenal. So do most religious folk seem "superstitious, ignorant, hateful, or factually wrong" ? sure - but for those rare people that just like to follow the path of giving and giving...these people are borderline saints.

Bashing DJT....is going to work against us. It will never work for us. We have to stay calm. We have to stop the bashing and simply point out the illegalities and unconstitutionalities that he's professed - and committed. As Michelle Obama summed it up..."when they go low, we go high". Don't fall in to a name-bashing. Strzok is repeatedly quoted by the GOP because he was a highly ranked FBI who fell in to that hole. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXkgAklX6jI If you're going to debate lawyers, or talk to congress-people, you got to clean up your act or you'll be dismissed and banned. Not necessarily from A.com....but from any legitimate and important discussion about DJT and the process of removing him from office. I can't wait until May 15; hopefully R. S. Mueller III will make an historic, eloquent appeal to our senses that will point, irrefutably, to the need to remove DJT. I'm not suggesting an immediate removal...there's simply too many GOP who benefit from his absurd policies to get them to turn against him; but we need to organize - cleanly, sophisticatedly, and vote him out in 2020. Buy a dozen of these; share them whenever someone notices - and likes - it https://dqzrr9k4bjpzk.cloudfront.net/images/10483604/580654734.jpg

This is such an easy question to answer; Why no contact? Because we're too far from them. Allow me to explain why we haven't heard from "Extra-Terrestrials"...and why perhaps we already have aliens living on earht. - - - - - - - - - - - Radio and TV travel the speed of light. If our first radio and tV signals left earth roughly 100 years ago; that means.... -We do know of 500 stars within 100 Light years (LY) of us. Of the 500 stars within 100 L.Y.of us. approximately 100 have planets around them, according to latest estimates. -of the 100, it's estimated that from 1 in ten to 4 in 10 are within the "goldilocks" zone...not too far, not too close - to have live. -that's anywhere from 10 to 40 planets. -of the 10 to 40, 1 in 10; possibly 2 in 10, have evolved life. -that 4 to 8 planets. -of the 4 to 8 that have life on them within 100 light years of us. Chances are not so good that they've evolved an intelligent, radio/TV communications skill level like ours. Scientists say 1 in 10. -that's 0.4 to 0.8....less than 1 planet within 100 L.Y. of us. So if, say 50 years ago, a planet, say 50 LY from us, got a TV signal - say news of Nixon's resignation...yesterday. They're celebrating that they've found life on other stars. ...and then they sent a hello back...say sometime around 1975. -so if that "hello" left them in '75... - we won't get that hello for another 6 years, in 2025. -get the picture? - - - - - - - - - - - BTW; we have a population of advanced aliens that's living here now. -They've chosen to live in the ocean. -They've chosen not to live complicated lives.. -.they have no money, no farms, no schools, no clothes...no technology. -They are very advanced. We just don't know much about them. -Their brains are larger than ours in proportion to their body size. They have a complicated language. -Their kids just play and eat all day. Their adults just play, eat and have sex all day. They did allow of few of their kind to be captured so the hostile, aggressive land species, humans, would respect them and not hunt nor eat them. Do you know who I'm referring to? They're aliens...They're laughing at us.

But she's not likely to win the nomination. And, as so Moe Tkacik said, in the article; "I realized I stood a better chance of finagling my way into Norwegian citizenship than she had of becoming president". We don't need "macho" Joe...or anyone else "raging"....let's not stoop to fighting in the gutter...the Republicans and Trumpminions aredown in it and they want us to join them....I say stay cool Liz....we love you the way you are. "....Warren was unabashedly unafraid to tackle two things no other 21st century politician really had: arcana, and the wholesale capture of Democratic Party politics by the big banks." OK...so if her ideas are great, but she's too polite to get the macho vote...too nice to "rage"...where could she be most effective? Right where she is.

Robecology comments on May 3, 2019:

I like it cool...with a blanket...even in summer. The ceiling fan on low or medium (if it's on high my mouth gets dry). Dark, no TV, no radio. Some partners were much easier to sleep with than others. Some liked spooning...others didn't want to even touch. Some snored, others quiet.

Priyanka Chopra Photo shoots are ok, she is beautiful but has not much butt.

Today, May 3 1919, singer-songwriter Pete Seeger was born.

Robecology comments on May 3, 2019:

Thanks for sharing this,@Ray13; I'm a long time fan of him. I met him in '76 and again in '77 while working as a volunteer environmental educator on board the Hudson River (N.Y.) Sloop Clearwater. Great days, Fond memories; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Seeger

Oh, really?

Thanks, @Lutherzme for this! I had the honor of serving on the Sloop Clearwater in the 1970s (summer of '76 and '77) and meeting Pete... Great man. Great musician, Great Ecologist! He's sorely missed! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Seeger

Amazing....

And cars with no seat belts nor air bags. No bicycle helmets. The highway death toll double what it is today....Cars were the real "killers" a few dacades ago. Bikes caused a lot of folks in wheelchairs....or worse. Gun violence, household accidents took their tolls, but in America, cars were the real winners in the death per capita department.

Guten Morgen! :) Right on to question 8, which I will expand from partner to also include friends:...

This is a good one. I'm at a cross-road with the lady-friend. Glad she lives 2+ hours away. I love her...but....but....OK...you asked what we have in common...let me think.... OK... we're both pretty educated, and devoted to our careers (I'm a retired teacher, she's a DON nurse). We're both borderline overweight food-a-holics. We both like to travel....

That tree looks like a "Bristlecone Pine"....among the oldest trees in America, if not the world? From the article, below; "One member of this species, noted to be 5066 years old, is considered the oldest known living organism on Earth. The ancient tree can be found in the White Mountains in California.... https://www.thevintagenews.com/2017/12/10/oldest-tree-in-the-world/

I can't remember ever having seen such strong attribution, by meteorologists, of aspects (such as ...

Third world nations - the world's poorest people - will suffer the most from climate shift. The wealthy - mostly in developed/industrialized nations - who profit from fossil fuels.. ignore these sufferers. I call these wealthy fossil fuel pushers the FFC (the Fossil fuel Consortium - oil companies, oil shippers, refiners. auto makers (except EV's like Tesla) auto service people, auto sales CEO's to service people, etc - they must number in the tens of millions). The FFC is looking out for themselves. They will lie and deceive with lots of ads for decades to come; just like BT (big tobacco) deceived the world for decades. Fuel taxes are lowest in America and Russia. These nations are the FFC root nations. They will lie and deny Solar energy, wind energy, and EV development as much as possible. They will push to lower fuel taxes (the lowest in the world are in Russia and America) to keep us addicted. Buy an EV. Buy and use Solar panels. Look in to wind energy. support the Green New Deal.

I would like to meet more friends.

@EyesThatSmile; I think we all have that option already. The closer someone is, the higher the percentage they get. It's up to you to contact them. This site is free for contacting members..and most dating sites don't offer that....so take advantage of it! Go to your profile, click either "who's viewed me" or "my followers" and get in touch with them, for starters. Far better communication flexibility than any dating site, IMO.

Tech over time, my brother took this.

Robecology comments on May 2, 2019:

Nice contrast of the two wind technologies! I urge him to get closer to the old wind-pump and take the wires out of the image; just have the old and new wind gens....

Last nights forging shenanigans.

Barr defends clearing Trump on obstruction, chides 'snitty' Mueller letter [reuters.

Robecology comments on May 2, 2019:

Barr's so obviously covering for DJT it's a wonder he can sleep at night...but I'm beginning to think these Republican leaders are so hardened and righteous that they just don't get it.

Okay so I want to vent about my grandpa for a moment here.

Robecology comments on May 2, 2019:

Try to empathize with him. As the pain gets worse, he'll ask to either get pain meds or get a set of pills that will allow him to check out. Be tolerant of either scenario....respect the need to check out. Don't fight it...just be comforting. Once he's gone you'll be prouder you were tolerant and accepting than if you fought with him. He's happy that you're fighting to keep him alive; but he's in pain...and from his POV you may just be acting selfishly. - - - - - - - This is coming from an old guy who's close to the end himself.

My bedtime again folks.

Robecology comments on May 2, 2019:

So-so looks and figure; but she was years, if not decades ahead of her time for soft porn pics. I don't think I've ever seen one of her with a man, and below is the only one I've ever found of her completely nude; and it might not be her; so she had a very mature relationship with her photographer....kudos to him(her?) as well for showing good taste. Sadly, she got religious, then fanatically religious,then someone got her "committed" to a mental hospital where she died at the ripe age of 85, in 2008. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bettie_Page https://s.ecrater.com/stores/327579/556b552a16b99_327579b.jpg

Robecology comments on May 2, 2019:

That's a lot of work. You should get someone to take pics while you're making them to show what goes in to it...I'm sure it's an effort more than most realize!
