They teach your immune system how to fight germs — without an actual infection. That’s because in most cases, you’re given a weaker or inactive version of a virus or bacteria, or an important part of it. When your immune system sees these germs, it learns to fight them and keep you from getting sick later.

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?What if a seafarer is raped?
by Captain John Konrad (gCaptain) Today is the Day Of The Seafarer and rather than participate in our industry’s regular line of bullshit, I want to tell a story. A story that is shocking because it is true.

“Sir, if I may ask You this favor, please do not go on past Your servant.” —Genesis 18:3
Like Abraham, we can have the Lord right in front of us, but if we don’t ask Him to stay, He may go right on past us. For example, when Jesus was walking on the water, He meant to pass by the apostles (Mk 6:48). But when they cried out to Him, Jesus “got into the boat with them and the wind died down” (Mk 6:51). Also, on Resurrection day, when Jesus had reached Emmaus with His two disciples, “He acted as if He were going farther. But they pressed Him: ‘Stay with us’… so He went in to stay with them” (Lk 24:28-29).
In some ways, Jesus appears to be reserved and quiet, “not crying out, not shouting, not making His voice heard in the street. A bruised reed He shall not break, and a smoldering wick He shall not quench” (Is 42:2-3). He won’t force Himself on you. He’ll let you ignore Him or even crucify Him. He often whispers (1 Kgs 19:12), and sometimes is silent (Mt 27:12, 14). If you don’t want Him around, He’ll leave, shaking the dust from His feet (Mt 10:14). Jesus respects our freedom, almost too much. He’ll let us reject Him forever. He’ll even allow us to choose to be separated from Him forever. That’s called hell.
Ask Jesus to stay the night with you, and even the day. Ask Him to stay forever. He says: “Here I stand, knocking at the door. If anyone hears Me calling and opens the door, I will enter his house” (Rv 3:20). Invite Him in.
Prayer: Jesus, give me the grace to get rid of anything that prevents You from staying with me.
Promise: “He expelled the spirits by a simple command.” —Mt 8:16

What kind of expectant faith and trust does the Lord Jesus want you to place in him? In Jesus’ time the Jews hated the Romans because they represented everything the Jews stood against – including pagan beliefs and idol worship, immoral practices such as abortion and infanticide, and the suppression of the Israelites’ claim to be a holy nation governed solely by God’s law. It must have been a remarkable sight for the Jewish residents of Capernaum to see Jesus conversing with an officer of the Roman army.
The power to command with trust and respect Why did Jesus not only warmly receive a Roman centurion but praise him as a model of faith and confidence in God? In the Roman world the position of centurion was very important. He was an officer in charge of a hundred soldiers. In a certain sense, he was the backbone of the Roman army, the cement which held the army together. Polybius, an ancient write, describes what a centurion should be: “They must not be so much venturesome seekers after danger as men who can command, steady in action, and reliable; they ought not to be over-anxious to rush into the fight, but when hard pressed, they must be ready to hold their ground, and die at their posts.”
Faith in Jesus’ authority over sickness and power to heal The centurion who approached Jesus was not only courageous, but faith-filled as well. He risked the ridicule of his associates as well as mockery from the Jews by seeking help from a wandering preacher from Galilee. Nonetheless, he approached Jesus with great confidence and humility. He was an extraordinary man because he loved his slave. In the Roman world slaves were treated as property and like animals rather than people. The centurion was also an extraordinary man of faith. He believed that Jesus could heal his beloved slave. Jesus commended him for his faith and immediately granted him his request. Are you willing to suffer ridicule in the practice of your faith? And when you need help, do you approach the Lord Jesus with expectant faith?
“Heavenly Father, you sent us your Son Jesus that we might be freed from the tyranny of sin and death. Increase my faith in the power of your saving word and give me freedom to love and serve others with generosity and mercy as you have loved me.”

If your stomach hurts, you might think the culprit is some misbehaving organ in your abdomen. That’s a definite possibility, but the offender could actually be your brain. Yup, just like chest pain, abdominal pain can be physical or mental.

Handclasping behavior is unique among cultural characteristics of chimp groups in the sense that it does not appear to directly promote chimp survival. “To the best of my knowledge, this handclasp grooming is the only convincing evidence of social conventions in chimpanzees,” Susan Perry, an evolutionary anthropologist and field primatologist at the University of California, Los Angeles, who was also not involved in the work, writes in an email to The Scientist.

For almost three decades, Michael Larson has quietly shuffled around one of the world’s biggest fortunes with a chief priority: Keep his fabulously wealthy bosses out of the headlines.
The conservative bets, the nondescript office, the investment firm’s generic-sounding name; they were all carefully designed to shield Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates from criticism and produce steady, if seemingly unimpressive, returns.

In a short documentary about airlines, Wendover Productions shares why electric planes are inevitably coming. “It doesn’t currently make sense for airlines to care about climate change,” the narrator of the video said. These are some of the top polluters in the transportation industry, but they basically just get a pass due to a lack of cleaner alternatives.

The “Nepal variant” turns out to be the Delta variant—the one first detected in India and currently making up over 90% of cases in the UK—plus a mutation known as K417N. The K417N mutation is in the spike protein (the mushroom-shaped projection on the surface of the coronavirus that helps it to enter human cells).
