Not good news for vaccinated. Also: This video has some "CR"-related content, wrt teleomere length in certain lab mice (which are not natural). Best if you watched the WHOLE video. Sorry, folks: No summary ... no can do on my end! Sometimes you just have to give an important topic your time and undivided attention. -

Myself (for the record) ... no root canals. A few childhood mercury fillings. All still in; never lost one. Dentist extracted wisdoms in late teens (damn! --- what a sham that is). About those childhood fillings .... all we know is that dentists ALLEGED there were cavities and they be filled in per std. procedure. Who really know what EXACTLY dentists found?!! I.e the pick that sticks (cavity) test, etc.

Just began experimenting with this very low-cost life hack. For the record, I'm just using 3M Scotch tape. It held perfectly well and was very easy to remove using tongue to break the seals.

Interesting coincidence ... going way back to commencement of CR for many of us, the synchronicity is uncanny ... "spiritual machine" ... As I noted in my earliest CR Mailing List posts, this Kurzweil book was an inspiration and promotion to investigate and pursue LE and CR: -

US Army research / Stanford Research Institute (SRI) It's understandable that hard-core objectivity is necessary for extraordinary claims. Actually, such prestigious academic and journal-published and military-backed proof of hard-to-believe topics covered in this thread have existed since the mid 1970s. This may have huge importance to areas of biology, healthcare and LE. Please see: Scientific and Spiritual Implications of Psychic Abilities - Russell Targ =================== 209,881 views Feb 17, 2015 What do the healer, the mystic, the psychic, and the spy all have in common? They are all in touch with their non-local mind and our community of spirit. During the 1970’s and 80’s, Stanford Research Institute (SRI) carried out investigations of our ability to experience and describe distant events blocked from ordinary perception. is intuitive capacity was named remote viewing, and the research was supported by the CIA, NASA and many other government organizations for gathering intelligence information about world-wide activities during the Cold War. Physicist Russell Targ, co-founder of this previously SECRET psychic research program, will describe the very best evidence for extrasensory perception, precognition, intuitive diagnosis and distant healing. He will describe many of these applications, together with the spiritual implications of psychic abilities from the Hindu mystic Patanjali, and the Dzogchen dharma masters, down to the present time, as they might be applied to expanding ones timeless and nonlocal awareness. He will discuss developing remote viewing skill; how to recognize the actual psychic signal, and separate it from mental noise of memory, imagination, and analysis – and why should we bother with ESP? e kind of tasks that kept the SRI program in business for twenty-three years include the following: SRI psychics found a downed Russian bomber in Africa; reported on the health of American hostages in Iran; described Soviet weapons factories in Siberia; located a kidnapped US general in Italy; and accurately forecasted the failure of a Chinese atomic-bomb test three days before it occurred, etc. When San Francisco heiress Patricia Hearst was abducted from her home in Berkeley, a psychic with the SRI team was the first to identify the kidnapper by name and then accurately describe and locate the kidnap car. =================== -

High-fidelity, high-resolution govt. think tanks and groups -- such as The Jasons or governments ESP teams -- are a place to start: -
.... and the future of life extension. Hope to populate this thread with content that allows one to "think outside the box". Such a huge set of topics ... and largely ignored by mainstream "science", academic presses and most university systems per their curricula . Present-day "science" its protectors will never lick the other "hard problem" (life extension) they come to better understanding and control of the "hard problem." Where to begin? Perhaps the ideal place to start is to ground consciousness with hard-core science. This has been "in plain sight" for years (maybe even 1000s of years) but somehow overlooked or disposed of as pseudoscience and mysticism. The 2014 presentation below is one of several Dr Radin has given on the topic of consciousness and its effects on physical instrument-measurable systems as well as human-animal- observable/reactable events and phenomena. The Extended Mind: Past,Present and Future | Dr.Dean Radin Hope to post more on the titular subject soon.

Saul/ALL: Please realize that science mags like NS operate on a business model, as does the NY Times, etc. They gotta put food on the table, like everyone. Many of the experienced top journalist know the game and try to play it the best as the can given basic human desires for "hope" and "art" and "entertainment". That's what sells. As Chomsky noted in Manufacturing Consent, the top editors play the instrument carefully, fine tuning the violin strings, staying music and listenable, to squeeze as much "fact" and "hope" and "art" and "entertainment" as possible. A difficult superposition. Yes, I follow Science News, too. It sticks to topics and agenda that are far less philosophical than NS. Both mags have different goals and agendas. You gotta read 'em differently 😉

Uh oh .... here we go again on same ol' "were gettin' closer" cliche. Anyway, as the article suggests, certain animals don't seem to follow DNA clocks (bowhead whales). I don't think DNA clocks will work for CR'd organisms. " Because the maximum lifespan isn’t known " . Unless Al's gotta paper on that proving otherwise 😉 ====================== https://www.newscientist.com/article/2338033-dna-clocks-suggest-ageing-is-pre-programmed-in-our-cells/ Closing in on true cause of ageing New Scientist | 24 September 2022 DNA clocks, which allow us to accurately work out how old almost any mammal is, are challenging old ideas of what really leads to ageing, discovers Michael Le Page ----Rhinos are among the many mammals whose age can be estimated using DNA clocks---- THE age of almost any mammal can now be accurately estimated from a tissue sample by analysing chemical tags on DNA. The finding comes from a study of nearly 200 species and could overturn our understanding of ageing. The team involved says the fact that all mammals seem to have the same “ageing clocks” shows that ageing is the result of developmental programs that have been retained during the evolution of mammals, rather than being solely due to accumulating damage. If something is conserved across different species, it is a sign that it is biologically important, says Steve Horvath at the University of California, Los Angeles, who led the work. “You simply would not be able to build these pan-mammalian clocks if there wasn’t something here that’s conserved.” The clocks are already being used by other teams to help study ageing and potential anti-ageing therapies. For instance, one team has shown that giving old mice young blood sets these clocks back in many organs, says Horvath. The new finding is a result of looking at which bits of DNA in cells have chemical tags called methyl groups added to them. These methyl groups get naturally added to or removed to alter the activity of genes, in what are known as epigenetic changes. These methylation patterns vary greatly in different types of cells. However, in 2011, Horvath showed that in human blood cells, certain small bits of DNA accumulate methyl groups in a consistent way over time, and so can be used to roughly estimate a person’s age. In 2013, his team identified another “epigenetic clock” that signals the age of any human tissue, not just blood, suggesting there is an ageing process common to all human cells. The team has also identified “epigenetic clocks” for different species, such as elephants. The latest clocks are based on studies of nearly 12,000 samples from 59 different tissue types across 185 species of mammal. This included several species each of lemurs, whales, goats, rhinos, bats, seals, kangaroos, wallabies, shrews and sloths, as well as the rock hyrax, Pacific walrus and platypus (bioRxiv, doi.org/jcn9). “What we show is that there are these certain locations – genomic regions – that gain methylation in an extremely consistent way in all of these very different mammalian species,” says Horvath. Based on these regions, the team has developed three versions of the clock. One estimates an individual animal’s age in years. Another estimates age relative to the maximum lifespan of the species, which can be converted into years if the maximum lifespan is known. Because the maximum lifespan isn’t known for some species, the team also developed a third version that calculates age relative to that at which sexual maturity is reached. The clocks are about 97 per cent accurate overall, but this varies from species to species. For bowhead whales, they were particularly poor, but this is probably because the existing method used to calculate the age of bowheads is inaccurate, says Horvath. Because the clocks work in such a wide range of mammals, he thinks they will work for any mammal, not just the species in the study. The team also did a number of other tests, showing, for instance, that the clocks run more slowly in mouse strains that are genetically engineered to live longer, and that they get set back to an earlier age when specialised cells are reprogrammed to turn them back into stem cells. The work has impressed others in the field. “This is a really good study,” says David Gems at University College London. The findings run counter to the overriding thinking on what causes ageing. The dominant idea is that it is due to accumulation of damage, for example to DNA, such as that caused inside cells by highly reactive molecules known as free radicals. But Gems says the epigenetic clocks add to growing evidence for an alternative idea that he calls the programmatic theory. The basic premise of this is that the body’s failure to completely switch off the developmental processes that build our bodies is the key to ageing. For instance, pruning connections between neurons in the brain is a vital part of development when we are young, but might contribute to cognitive decline in later life. “It doesn’t argue that molecular damage plays no role in ageing, rather that ageing is largely caused by other things,” says Gems. Horvath found many of the sites that gain methylation tags with age are next to genes related to development. These results support the idea that ageing is linked to developmental processes common to all mammals – and probably all vertebrates, too, says Horvath. “That, to me, is a smoking gun, that there are these processes that are conserved,” he says. “There must be some sort of a program.” ========= “The body’s failure to switch off developmental processes that build our bodies is the key to ageing” ============ --

Old CR mailing list archives (looking for posts and topics)
KHashmi317 posted a topic in CR Practice
Unfortunately, Yahoo Groups (that hosted and the original mailing list, 1998-2004???) vanished when Yahoo ended Groups in 2020. I saved most of my group emails -- early 2000 - present -- in various email programs (AOL and Thunderbird). The AOL records (early 2000-June 2003) are in 'FMorph' format which is complete, can be organized by date and subject, but (ALAS!!) not searchable. My records also include the various child (sub-) groups that were experimented with around in the early 2000s (and that were mostly private), including: [CRCOMM] [CRCOMMUNITY] [CRS_META] [CRSocietyOperations] etc. The primary (public) group was [CR], with "[CR] " as part of every email Subject header. Were (are) the Archives from that period avail anywhere in some sort organized and searchable form? -

The "hate watching videos" comment is confusing , Saul. This video also presents info-graphical data (which you can pause on) -- along with audio and video. Below the video is readable text and links. (Unherd is a reliable resource) About videos ... they can ADDITIONALLY provide stuff test-only resources can't: body language. And that has been around way longer than written text. Look at the characters on the movie screen ... are they bullshitting you? That's not on a continuum -- there can be many shades of gray between black and white.
