				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I pay extra for my “High Performance Internet” from Comcast which boasts a 25 MBPS download speed. I was able to get that speed only up to about two weeks after the upgrade. Now I am only averaging about 15 MBPS. That’s one problem I will have to address Comcast about, but the picture below depicts another problem that I am totally confused about.&#160; The problem is I can be trying to watch a YouTube video and it freezes. Now I watch most videos full screen in 1080i if possible,&#160; but the problem persists at even lower quality settings. Now a lot of people suffer from this problem that have slower connection speeds, but should I really be having the problem with the current speed of my ISP verified from <a href="http://speedtest.net"><font color="#4bacc6">SpeedTest.net</font></a>? I don’t think so, but as you can see from the picture below is that according to the gray part of the bar on the bottom of the video, it can be buffered and still not playing on my Quad-core. What’s up with this? Is it a YouTube problem or what. It seems that Google’s servers on YouTube have been getting slower instead of faster over the year. That’s another story, but what about the “buffering”. Are they trying to pull the wool over our eyes or is this a flash problem or what? Any ideas?</p>

<p><font size="1"><u><em>Article Two Clause Five of the constitution: No Person﻿ </em><strong>except a natural born Citizen</strong><em>, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.</em></u></font></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><font color="#a5a5a5">I was never what they are calling a “birther”, but once I saw Sheriff Arpaio’s Press Conference, I knew something serious was up. Something more than Donald Trumps “investigation”.</font></p>
<p><font color="#a5a5a5"> Earlier, I had heard that The White House released <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/rss_viewer/birth-certificate-long-form.pdf"><font color="#0000ff">President Obama’s Birth Certificate</font></a> after having previously only released a “receipt”&#160; for his Certificate Of Live Birth, so I downloaded it from the WhiteHouse.gov website. I looked at it and couldn’t easily see just from my&#160; laymen’s view, that there was anything that didn’t&#160; look right, so&#160; I didn’t give it much thought. However, I believe it was the next day, the Internet was buzzing with many blogs etc. talking about how the document was in “layers” when looked at in Adobe Illustrator. That really got my curiosity going as I was familiar with OCR (optical character recognition) scanning and how documents can be “layered” using various software&#8217;s as mentioned above just like one can “layer” images of a photograph using programs similar to Adobe’s Photoshop.(We all know what can be done with that). Normally, you wouldn’t see this in just a scanned copy of a document.</font></p>
<p><font color="#a5a5a5">I had messed with things like that in my earlier computing days basically just familiarizing myself with tools of that nature as the programs came out. On a few occasions more recently, I had played around with it and was really amazed at the power it gave one to modify documents and images. That is some pretty powerful software. I never really had a serious need to modify a document, but it was really easy how a document could be scanned, then layered with new information. And then when you are finished modifying the document, you&#160; “flatten” the document making it appear untouched in one layer again. In this case, the document was never flattened thus leaving it in approximately 7-9 layers.&#160; That was strange.&#160; Now I was really curious: Had the President’s Birth Certificate been modified. And if so, why? And why such a non-professional job? And who did it?</font></p>
<p>That leads me to three video’s that one should watch if interested in truth in our Government and why the vetting of a President should be done prior to him/her even being eligible for President. And in my opinion, everyone should be interested. The first one is the local&#160; TV stations broadcast in Arizona. The second video is a recent Alex Jones&#160; Prison Planet interview with Sheriff Arpaio and the main video is Sheriff Arpaio’s Press Conference where he announced his preliminary results of his Cold Case Posse’s 6 month investigation. It a long one but it shows the techniques used with a control document and the <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/rss_viewer/birth-certificate-long-form.pdf"><font color="#0000ff">document downloaded from the WhiteHouse.gov’s website</font></a> to discovery an alleged fraud and forgery perpetrated on the American people.&#160; Watch it in different sittings if you must as I said it is long, but watch it. Don’t deny that something illegal has been committed here unless you watch the press conference video. Then and ONLY then make up your mind.</p>

<p align="center"><font color="#00ff00" face="Georgia"><strong><font>&#160;<font color="#4bacc6"> INSTINCTIVE DROWNING RESPONSE</font></font> </strong></font></p>
<p>This is a topic that in my research just doesn’t seem to get enough factual coverage. As the title&#160; from numerous blogs reads “<font color="#ffffff">Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning</font>” : it is a statement that is so true as I discovered in my own life several years ago. At the time I hadn’t heard about <a href="http://mariovittone.com/2011/07/video-of-instinctive-drowning-response/"><font color="#4bacc6">Instinctive Drowning Response</font></a> or much less had a clue as to what it was actually about. However, one day at the beach while with a person I was very close to, I encountered it.</p>
<p>I had just gotten out of the water and was sitting on the beach just out of the incoming tide watching this person swimming. They were in the shore break which was varying between 3-5 ft. in depth. As I was just casually watching, I noticed their heading bobbing up and down in the water with their head sometimes tilting back and their hair in their eyes. They seemed to be in a way, peacefully enjoying the water.</p>
<p>As I kept watching, I then noticed their arms extended out but nothing frantic in the movement. They seemed to be almost drunk like (for lack of a better way to explain it) however, I knew this was not the case. After a few seconds of watching this trying to make sense out of what I was seeing, I decided to get back in the water and get a closer view. As I approached, I then became troubled at what I was seeing. They were now appearing to me to not be in control any more as the head was tending to stay face down more with the mouth above and below the water and no longer tilting back anymore. The waves appeared to be causing more of the movement instead of what I thought was the persons intentional movement. As a wave passed, I was in about 3-4 ft. of water and I just grabbed them probably by the arms and I remember saying “What are you doing?” and walked them back to the beach.</p>
<p>As the person and I lay on the beach, I was still trying to figure out what just took place. They were breathing heavily as if out of breath, but not coughing or spitting up water or anything like I would have expected of someone having almost drowned. I, for some reason remember asking them again “What were you doing out there?” The only response I got a couple of minutes later was “You saved me.”</p>
<p>I never took that too serious because I was really confused about the situation as it just didn’t seem real. I didn’t feel as if I had saved this person from drowning as I didn’t really think this person was drowning. Just no other explanation comes to my mind as I think back. We never did really discuss it throughout the years, but just in conversation, almost in a kidding fashion I thought, the person would say that I saved them on 2-3 occasions.</p>
<p>I don’t believe that throughout the following years that I ever told anyone about this until one day maybe two or three years ago I was checking out some things on the Internet and I ran across this<font color="#4bacc6"> </font><a href="http://mariovittone.com/2010/05/154/"><font color="#4bacc6">article by Mario Vittone</font></a>. I could not believe what I was reading. It had been several years since that had happened, but as I read what a real drowning was like, I felt I had seen it first hand in the above account. If this was so, then I decided that I needed to tell my experience and get the word out that<font color="#ffffff"><strong> DROWNING DOESN’T LOOK LIKE DROWNING.</strong></font></p>
<p>As a surfer I have been close to drowning myself, but as I discovered in my research in this matter, was that I only experienced <strong><em>aquatic distress</em></strong>. I was experiencing this as I had wiped out on a ten ft. wave. I got pounded to the bottom and rolled around in the turbulence of the wave for several seconds before&#160; I was able to tell which way was up and start swimming back to the surface. However, as I came up for air, I was gasping and another wave came right down on top of me preventing me from taking in much air. This time my board had got caught in the wave ripping the leash from my leg, taking away my only means of flotation. As I came up the second time I had maybe a couple of seconds and a third wave crashed on top of me again sending me below into the turbulence.</p>
<p>By now I was totally exhausted and was at the point where I wanted to yell for help but barely had the energy to, much less the breath to. I was getting farther away from the breakers so I was getting a little more time in between waves, but I still felt I needed help. At one point I could see the lifeguard on the beach talking to a couple of girls not looking in my direction. I decided then that I was on my own. The waves were still coming one after another, but now they were actually helping push me closer to the beach. I kept struggling as the waves were still going over my head, but I was no longer thrust under them as before. I was finally able to make it back to the beach totally exhausted as I lay in the sand and no one appeared to notice what I had been through. I had experienced <strong><em>aquatic distress</em></strong>, but fortunately I hadn’t drowned. I learned a great lesson that day. YOU are responsible for your own life as others may not care or are too busy to notice what you are going through.</p>
<p>I was fully aware of my situation and able to help myself, but those that are real victims of the silence of drowning are unable to help themselves. And others even close by, unless trained for what to look for, may not realize the person next to them is drowning. <em>It’s not like Hollywood, people</em>. Get yourself educated about this as you may be the one next to someone drowning. Only God was able to help me to see something was not right as I was almost embarrassed to get in the water thinking the person was not in any real trouble.</p>
<p>Check out this<font color="#4bacc6"> </font><a href="http://mariovittone.com/2011/07/video-of-instinctive-drowning-response/"><font color="#4bacc6">video of a rescue</font></a> where others around were not aware the kid was even drowning.</p>
<p><em><u><font color="#00ff00">Please check out the real signs of a drowning victim below and forget the Hollywood scenes as that person beside you may be in real danger, but not appear that way to the casual observer. </font></u></em></p>
<p><font color="#d16349">The Instinctive Drowning Response – so named by Francesco A. Pia, Ph.D., is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water. And it does not look like most people expect. There is very little splashing, no waving, and no yelling or calls for help of any kind. To get an idea of just how quiet and un-dramatic from the surface drowning can be, consider this: It is the number two cause of accidental death in children, age 15 and under (just behind vehicle accidents) – of the approximately 750 children who will drown next year, about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adult. In ten percent of those drowning&#8217;s, the adult will actually watch them do it, having no idea it is happening (source: CDC). Drowning does not look like drowning – Dr. Pia, in an article in the Coast Guard’s On Scene Magazine, described the instinctive drowning response like this:<img title="More..." alt="" src="http://gcaptain.com/maritime/blog/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" /></font></p>
<blockquote><ol>
<li><font color="#d16349">Except in rare circumstances, drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help. The respiratory system was designed for breathing. Speech is the secondary or overlaid function. Breathing must be fulfilled, before speech occurs. </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Drowning people’s mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water. The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale, inhale, and call out for help. When the drowning people’s mouths are above the surface, they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water. </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Drowning people cannot wave for help. Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the water’s surface. Pressing down on the surface of the water, permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe. </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response, drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements. Physiologically, drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help, moving toward a rescuer, or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment. </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response people’s bodies remain upright in the water, with no evidence of a supporting kick. Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard, these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs.</font> </li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p><font color="#d16349">(Source: <a href="http://www.uscg.mil/hq/cg5/cg534/On%20Scene/OSFall06.pdf#page=16">On Scene Magazine: Fall 2006</a></font><font color="#d16349"></font><font color="#d16349"> (page 14))</font></p>
</blockquote>
<p><font color="#d16349">This doesn’t mean that a person that is yelling for help and thrashing isn’t in real trouble – they are experiencing aquatic distress. Not always present before the instinctive drowning response, aquatic distress doesn’t last long – but unlike true drowning, these victims can still assist in their own rescue. They can grab lifelines, throw rings, etc.</font></p>
<p><font color="#d16349">Look for these other signs of drowning when persons are in the water:</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font color="#d16349">Head low in the water, mouth at water level </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Head tilted back with mouth open </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Eyes glassy and empty, unable to focus </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Eyes closed </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Hair over forehead or eyes </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Not using legs – Vertical </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Hyperventilating or gasping </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Trying to roll over on the back </font></li>
<li><font color="#d16349">Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder.</font> </li>
<li><em><u></u></em></li>
</ul>
<p><font color="#ffff00">If anybody has any comments or videos about Instinctive Drowning Response, please leave them in the comments section below. I would really like to see some videos as I can not find many out there describing this. Your help would greatly be appreciated and it might someday save someone&#8217;s life. Let’s get the word out.</font></p>
<p><font color="#ffff00">Thank You</font></p>

<p>This really amazed me when I first ran across this as I really am fascinated with sharks. This video shows a different more realistic side of sharks other than what Hollywood tends to portray. During the video, the lady is able to feed the sharks in a very controlled manner. Also, she displays <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonic_immobility#Tonic_immobility">tonic immobility</a>, which is a natural state of paralysis that exists in lots of various animals. Check out the video below.</p>

<p><font color="#4bacc6">A &#8216;Blue Marble&#8217; image of the Earth taken from the VIIRS instrument aboard NASA&#8217;s most recently launched Earth-observing satellite &#8211; Suomi NPP. This composite image uses a number of swaths of the Earth&#8217;s surface taken on January 4, 2012.</font></p>
<p><font color="#4bacc6">Suomi NPP is carrying five instruments on board. The biggest and most important instrument is The Visible/Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite or VIIRS. NPP orbits the earth at 512 miles above the surface. The image is composited from 4 orbits. A map projection algorithm is used to put the VIIRS data in the image. The map projection transformation provides the global look of the image.</font></p>
