It Wasn’t Me . . .
Today was my first day back at work since my surgery and I walked right into a big problem. Our website was down, and had been since around 8:30 last night, since that was when the last order came in.
But a few minutes of checking things out told me that the problem was on GoDaddy’s server end, and not on mind. And after about 30 minutes on the phone with them, they said it was a server problem and it was being worked on.
And sometime around 7:30pm it all came back up.
Tomorrow we’re heading up to the Spring area to meet up with Ed and Debi Hurlburt at El Palenque once again. Really looking forward to it.
Since we’ve been doing a lot of searches involving ‘spinal cords’ recently, this article popped up that seems to show a lot of promise for people with a lot more serious spinal cord problems than I have.
Mouse study points to potential breakthrough against spinal cord injury
Severe spinal cord injuries are incurable today in humans, but a new injectable therapy that restored motion in laboratory mice could pave the way for healing paralyzed people.
The therapy — liquid nanofibers that gel around the damaged spinal cord like a soothing blanket — produces chemical signals that promote healing and reduce scarring, researchers report.
“We found that in about four weeks effectively, somewhere between three and four weeks after injection of the therapy, the paralysis was completely reversed and the mice are able to walk almost normally,” he said.
And now this:
The FDA has asked a federal judge to make the public wait until the year 2076 to disclose all of the data and information it relied upon to license Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine. That is not a typo. It wants 55 years to produce this information to the public.
As explained in a prior article, the FDA repeatedly promised “full transparency” with regard to Covid-19 vaccines, including reaffirming “the FDA’s commitment to transparency” when licensing Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine.
But apparently it won’t be ‘fully transparent’ until 2076.
Makes you wonder what they’re trying to hid?
