Helen Gurley Brown (1922)

Propelled to fame by her 1962 bestseller Sex and the Single Girl, Brown became editor-in-chief of the struggling Cosmopolitanmagazine. By directing the magazine toward single, young career women and by being an outspoken advocate of women’s sexual freedom, she not only revived the publication but also played a part in the sexual revolution. By the end of her 32-year tenure withCosmopolitan, the magazine ranked sixth at the newsstand but first in what other kind of store? More… Discuss

 

This Day in the Yesteryear: THE AGE OF KALI YUGA BEGINS (3102 BCE)

The Age of Kali Yuga Begins (3102 BCE)

In Hindu scripture, the age of Kali Yuga is the last of the four cyclic stages of the world and is currently ongoing. It is thought to have begun on the same day that Krishna left the Earth and is said to be marked by greed and murder. The scriptures predict that during Kali Yuga, unreasonable rulers will impose burdensome taxes and people will migrate to wheat-producing countries, become addicted to alcohol, and exhibit flexible morals. How long is the age expected to last? More…Discuss

PSYCH DRUGS DOSING FISH

In recent years, scientists and environmentalists have grown increasingly concerned over the levels of pharmaceuticals reaching our waterways, and it appears they have cause to be. Captive perchexposed to the tranquilizing drug oxazepam at levels equivalent to those found in rivers and streams ate faster, were less social, and were bolder than those whose tanks were not dosed. These behavioral changes occurred when the fish were exposed to just one drug. Thus, it would stand to reason that even greater behavioral changes are occurring in wild fish, which are constantly exposed a slew of pharmaceuticals. More… Discuss

 

EARWORMS

Known scientifically as “involuntary musical imagery,” an earworm is a fragment of music that compulsively replays in one’s head. The phenomenon, which is distinct from auditory hallucination and is believed to affect nearly everyone to some degree, has been studied by psychologists and neurologists alike. Some notable science fiction stories have concerned fictional songs so catchy that they get stuck in everyone’s head, destroying civilization. Do earworms last longer for men or women? More… Discuss

TURNBULL CANYON ON TOP OF RATTLESNAKE RIDGE TRAIL (my video published on YouTube)

Turnbull Cyn Trail-Rattlesnake Ridge

This trail is easily accessible and practicable on foot and on bike. On the map bellow you can see the distances, as well as the difficulty. You can have 2 hours of fun, no winding trails, starting with Turnbull Cyn. which is the easiest portion of the trip (1.6 mile). It is shaded by nice tall trees, some of them eucalypti. It can be jogged (if you’re in a hurry), or walked as slow as your hear desire. I notices a coyote, on  the hill  to left. I had a walking stick, which I would have used to scare it away, but there was no need for any of that.

I enjoyed the display showing a the flora and fauna of these hills and  was uplifted especially by the “Leave only Footprints” poster.

Turnball Cyn Trail-1.6 miles

NOw this here is a nice uphill of about 0.5 miles, also it makes a nice downhill too. I got some members of the group I was waling (some were jogging) with. We had a great time.

Rattlesnake Ridge Sign Post

With all the signs in place not only you can’t get lost, but you can write home ( or blog) about the places you’ve seen: A real Veni, vidi, vici, kind of implement. Yes I got a bottle of water, glucose, but no, no raincoat (no way was it going to rain that day).
