"A half cup of ashes to be exact, gathered in a personalized box and sent by courier to a company in Europe. Over the course of several months the human ashes are turned to carbon and subjected to tremendous pressure in specially-designed machines to become a lab-grown diamond, which is then cut and polished and set in a ring or a necklace of the family’s choosing."

Of course, if this diamond is lost or stolen, you shouldn't report a missing person.

"The U.S. government has increasingly utilized private entities, such as Google, Facebook and Apple,
to seize user data from cellphones and computers without the need for a warrant."

"Google and several other companies have agreed to monitor users' emails for images that match up
with known child pornography, using a process called image hashing."

Actually, files on any computer (or cell phone) with internet access (wireless or wired) have long been available

From today's email ...
In Newsmax Health (from Newsmax.com), Dr. Gary Small, MD, writes:

"Having a higher IQ offers many advantages in society. Now a group of Scottish investigators reports
that a high IQ is associated with a longer life expectancy."

"the investigators suspect that more intelligent people have greater awareness
of lifestyle habits such as smoking, which can shorten life expectancy."

Apparently, that awareness is complemented with behavioral change.

"The 'sleep box' emits a very faint light between 6 am and 7 am,
when their daughters Max and August usually wake up."

"He explained: 'Since it doesn't show the time, if she wakes up in the middle of the night,
she knows to just go back to sleep without having to worry about what time it is."

Interesting concept - the box might need battery backup for a power failure.

One easy lesson from this breach (re: "a hacker can embed dangerous links inside emails that look like they come from legitimate financial institutions or other companies, leading in some cases to ransomware, where you’d have to pay a fee to reclaim your computer"):

You're usually not in trouble unless you respond to the email or click on an embedded link ...
and Caller ID can help determine if phone calls from unknown persons should be answered
(if no Caller ID, let them leave a message where information can be verified).

Often, moving the mouse pointer over the link displays the real URL address of the link ...
and its beginning nodes easily identify non-association with legitimate businesses.

Moose "nuggets" are fine for luggage but can't stink ... which reminds me:

When my family first moved into a new home in South Florida (USA), a cow pasture was nearby
with dried cow poop "frisbees". My younger sister and I had great fun tossing these at my older sister
until she complained to mom ... who threatened to make us eat one!

That was too funny then to even consider how to eat a cow pie

Who knew

Until then, it's just a roll of thin paper with perforated sheets,

near a kitchen counter where a few sheets are more economical to use

After days of hard work, prepping and painting my six front porch posts, ants (small black on one post - med. red on another) kept trying to move into their new hole at the top of the post. I tried for three days (and two different ant sprays) to deter them.

Duct tape finally worked! Placed sticky side up at the base of the post created a dry moat that they would not cross (a few did and are still stuck to the tape). Hopefully, nest-building season is short. Just knock on the post if you step too close to the tape on my porch.

"'Your cells are literally made up of those three macronutrients,' the 45-year-old trainer said,
referring to fat, protein and carbohydrates. She stressed a balance between the three
is imperative for a healthy, well-rounded diet."

So ... if you're a bit too rounded and your 3 macronutrients are in balance,
insufficient exercise and/or excess calories may be the cause. Jillian advises
not to upset the macronutrient balance to achieve this weight loss.

"What's that balance?"

Re: https://wa.kaiserpermanente.org/healthA ... ncing.html
