Now What?
By Joe Steinberger, The Buzz—
Wednesday’s events in Washington are a clear lesson: the politics of blame lead to violence.
Unfortunately, it is not clear that this lesson is being learned. The Republicans are subdued, for obvious reasons, and perhaps they have realized something about the hazards of following Trump’s brand of populism, but the Democrats, instead of seeing this as an opportunity for a truce, seem to be ramping up the blame rhetoric for maximum advantage.
We need that truce.

Harvard professor says an alien object might have visited in 2017.

Down Main Street with Phil Groce – “Professionals”
By Philip C. Groce, The Buzz—
It was not easy for Channa, in her early 20’ s, to lose both her mother and father to illnesses, and also to have her twin sister severely injured in a car accident. Channa Putansu (then, Munroe) had a premonition of her sister’ s accident, and when she did not show up for breakfast, Channa knew what had happened—common with twins. Historically, when Channa was much younger, her parents had started Bilbo Baggins in Camden.

Together, to the compassionate end.

Artificial Intelligence Model Detects Asymptomatic Covid-19 Infections Through Cellphone-Recorded Coughs.
Asymptomatic people who are infected with Covid-19 exhibit, by definition, no discernible physical symptoms of the disease. They are thus less likely to seek out testing for the virus, and could unknowingly spread the infection to others.
A new AI model identified 98.5 percent of coughs from people confirmed with Covid-19, and of those, it accurately detected all of the asymptomatic coughs.
