Now that I have typed about the rude people (15%) we can concentrate on
the polite and friendly (85%)(both percentages from the 220th post).
At the Wayne County Fair I talked with the vendors I bought food from,
creamy chicken from the Dalton Bulldogs that is a high school and was
selling to benefit their sports program. Their wagon/booth was located
to the left if you are in the grandstands that faces north.
I bought a grilled chicken wrap with everything minus the cheese to
include jalapeno that most people do not like. Their place, like the
Dalton Bulldogs, had wheels to move to another place for selling.
I bought a fish piece that was lightly coated and deep-fried from a
place, like the first two above. I smelled fish before I got there and
thinking that I have never found fish to purchase at a state or county
fair before.
The sellers at these places are required to be friendly and polite and
I can usually tell if they are pretending, but I could see no evidence of
that in the three places that I bought food and I'm certainly glad for that.

Hillary Clinton renews her call for Silicon Valley to target terrorists
'more vigorously'
(Matt Rourke / Associated Press)
"Hillary Clinton’s uneasy alliance with Silicon Valley is being tested
yet again as she questions whether tech companies are doing all they
can to find terrorists online and undermine their recruiting efforts.
“The recruitment and radicalization that goes on online has to be much
more vigorously intercepted and prevented. I have been saying this for
quite some time,” the Democratic presidential candidate said at a news
conference Monday during which she responded to the bombings in
New York and New Jersey over the weekend.
“The government cannot do this without the close participation of tech
companies and experts online who can give us the tools and lead us to
those who are attempting to promote attacks like we’ve seen.”
The role of tech in fighting terrorism was at the center of Clinton’s
response to the latest attacks. She renewed her earlier calls for tech
companies to step up, but those calls have been met with
apprehension by firms that are struggling to balance the privacy
demands of their clients -- and civil rights activists -- with demands
from law enforcement that would enable more sophisticated and
widespread surveillance.
The debate is reemerging as many tech activists demand former
National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden receive a
presidential pardon for disclosing massive secret government
surveillance efforts online and as tech firms warn that billions of dollars
of business will move offshore if they can not ensure client privacy.
But Clinton made clear that she would put pressure on the tech firms
to step up their efforts to root out terrorists. She is putting the focus on
Silicon Valley even as most of the big donors in that sector support her.
While Clinton talks of balancing the needs of the tech industry with
national security, her GOP rival, Donald Trump, tends to frame the
tension as tech companies needlessly undermining law enforcement.
Even so, both candidates have made tech executives uneasy as they
vow law enforcement will be more aggressively taking the terror fight
to the Internet.
“We need to work more closely with Silicon Valley and other partners
to counter terrorist propaganda and recruitment efforts online,” Clinton
said as she laid out her agenda for fighting Islamic State.
“Recruiters for ISIS and these other terrorists groups look for people who
online demonstrate the mental profile, the level of paranoia, the level of
delusion, the level of disappointment that then is exploited by quite able
terrorist recruiters.”

"8 Myths About Healthy Eating You Need To Stop Believing.
self.com
Food
August 12, 2016
By Amy Marturana
"You can find healthy eating advice on every corner. That doesn't mean
it's good advice, though. Nutrition research can be confusing, and it's
always changing. Throw in the sensationalistic headlines and the rate
at which information is spread, and it's no wonder the nutrition tips or
suggestions you get from your friend are unsound. Best-case scenario,
following bad advice means you unnecessarily avoid your favorite foods.
Worst-case, you end up choosing the unhealthier option all while
thinking you're making a better choice.
We zeroed in on eight myths about healthy eating that especially need
to die."
CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY....
7. Drink eight glasses of water per day.
This one may seem a little counterintuitive, considering water is easily
one of the most important things to consume. But as it turns out, there’s no
science behind the myth that we need to drink eight glass a day.
Although most experts recommend water as the best beverage to consume,
it’s also present in coffee, tea, juice, fruits, vegetables and pretty much
every other thing on the planet. Instead of stressing over those 64 ounces,
experts say just listen to your body and drink when you’re thirsty. The
crazy machine you’re living in knows exactly what it's doing.
8. Bathing daily promotes good hygiene.
This one’s a bonus for those who don’t feel like spending 20 minutes every
day standing beneath a steady stream of water. Turns out, we don’t have to.
According to Joshua Zeichner, a dermatology professor at NYU, bathing is
really more of a cultural thing. “We overbathe in this country and that’s
really important to realize,” Zeichner told Buzzfeed. “A lot of the reason we
do it is because of societal norms.”
In fact, showering too often can have a negative effect on your skin, shedding
the useful bacteria that keeps your skin healthy and acts as a shield against
bad bacteria. Washing too frequently also dries out your hair, leading to
split ends and other signs of damage.
So save water and shower less often. It’s science!"

"A group of scientists at the Assam Agricultural University of Assam, India
has claimed the Bhut Jolokia, once recorded as the hottest chilli in the
world by the Guinness World Records, is losing its characteristic hotness
with time. The scientists suggested changing agricultural patterns in
Assam and cross-pollination as the main reasons.
The scientists said according to their study the hotness of the chilli has
reduced greatly in the past eight years. The hotness, which measured
1.5 million Scoville heat units (SHU) in 2008, now measures only 0.4
million SHU.
With this, the Bhut Jolokia loses its status as the world's hottest chilli, left
behind by, reportedly, Carolina Reaper of the US and the Trinidad
Moruga Scorpion of Trinidad and Tobago.
The scientists suggested cross-pollination and changing farming patterns
in Assam were likely the causes. However, they still have to check other
possible influences such as changing agro-climatic conditions.
Dr Hazarika of the team said, "We are now taking up some scientific works
to maintain the original degree of pungency of bhot jolokia which we found
eight years back".

IN THE FLOWER GARDEN WITH FORREST CARICOFE
I did not get much done in the flower gardens again yesterday. Like
I said yesterday I had an appointment with Dr Kwok at 10:20 AM and
I did not even have time to water the flowers in the morning that had
to wait until I got back.
Dr Kwok, again, offered to me a prescription for quitting smoking and
for cholesterol but I declined them both. I also said that I needed a colon
exam and that I had 4 appointments on the same day at the Cleveland
Clinic. I believe that Dr Bargava who is the device doctor at the clinic
said that I needed to be there at the clinic every 6 months to check my
defibrillator, but time has passed and probably it has been 4 years or so.
Dr Bargava, like he always does, will scold me and I'll tell him again
that the defibrillator has not shocked me for 18 years since the first one
was implanted and maybe saying "I'm sorry, but I don't think I have a
need for that."
