COVID Masks: Mechanistic View: Part 2: Fine Aerosol Emissions:
Masks may increase fine aerosol emissions from: 1) nebulization of large droplets into fine aerosols, or 2) friability of certain mask materials creating "aerosolized fomites."

Here are the studies:

Study: Ha'eri 1980
Title: The efficacy of standard surgical face masks: an investigation using "tracer particles"
Albumin tracer particles put inside a surgical mask were dispersed into the room by breathing.

Study: Liu 2020
Title: Aerodynamic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 in two Wuhan hospitals.
SARS-2-COV sub-micrometer aerosols not tightly bound to surfaces, get airborne when PPE is taken off.

Do our masks stop large droplets or do they nebulize them into Aerosols? From my emulsion days, best way to get a monodispersed emulsion is to force H20 through a pore sized membrane that has a different phase (oil or air) on the other side of it. https://t.co/Y9UCmWZ7uT pic.twitter.com/bGZBxI6lUT

2) "Aerosolized fomites" from the mask material itself (e.g. cotton or fabric) are shed during breathing. These tiny organic particles - fomites - are contaminated by even smaller viral molecules.
Friability of mask materials: Cotton or fabric may emit fine particles < 1 um, possibly spreading viral contamination. This study found breathing through DIY masks of cotton or fabric increased forward emission of fine aerosols.
https://t.co/nks9rCb6Ox
Cotton or cloth releases tiny organic material - aerosolized fomites - that can potentially serve as a conduit for viral molecules.
Limitations:
Only measured 2 minutes of emissions
Only measured forward emissions; not emissions around edges; may underestimate total emissions vs no mask
Could not tell if medical-grade masks also increased aerosols when fully contaminated with droplets
Title: Influenza A virus is transmissible via aerosolized fomites
Found that non-respiratory "aerosolized fomites" (organic debris) contaminated with a virus can infect other animals. May play large role in viral transmission.

So masks might capture some viral debris, but emissions might be in a more easily transported aerosol.
It's analogous to someone mistakenly power sanding lead paint to remove it. The total amount is reduced, but remaining portion is in a more hazardous form.

The Nashville Operation - A Battle in the War
A thread exploring the Nashville bombing in the context of the 2020 Digital War (via SolarWinds) against the United States perpetrated by our enemies, likely China, Iran and/or Russia.
SolarWinds Hack
A digital "Pearl Harbor" moment for the United States, whoever was responsible had access to the keys to the kingdom for months during 2020, including sensitive military infrastructure. This is war!
SunGard + SolarWinds
SolarWinds software company is owned by same company that owns SunGard, which essentially provides data center services. A secure place to host internet servers with redundant power and "big pipe" data connections.

SunGard Data Center
In Nashville, around the corner from their "big pipe" connection, AT&T. Like any data center, highly secure. Only authorized personnel can enter, and even fewer can access the actual server rooms. Backup generators are available in case of power failure.
If the SunGard hardware was being used to "host" critical command and control software related to SolarWinds, the US powers would be very interested in gaining special access keys that are stored on the hard-drives of specific servers.

Imagine if Christians actually had to live according to their Bibles.
Imagine if Christians actually sacrificed themselves for the good of those they considered their enemies, with no thought of any recompense or reward, but only to honor the essential humanity of all people.
Imagine if Christians sold all their possessions and gave it to the poor.
Imagine if they relentlessly stood up for the widow, the orphan, and the foreigner.
Imagine if they worshipped a God whose response to political power was to reject it.
Or cancelled all debt owed them?
Imagine if the primary orientation of Christians was what others needed, not what they deserved.
Imagine Christians with no interest in protecting what they had.
Imagine Christians who made room for other beliefs, and honored the truths they found there.
Imagine Christians who saved their forgiveness and mercy for others, rather than saving it for themselves.
Whose empathy went first to the abused, not the abuser.
Who didn't see tax as theft; who didn't need to control distribution of public good to the deserving.

So friends here is the thread on the recommended pathway for new entrants in the stock market.
Here I will share what I believe are essentials for anybody who is interested in stock markets and the resources to learn them, its from my experience and by no means exhaustive..
First the very basic : The Dow theory, Everybody must have basic understanding of it and must learn to observe High Highs, Higher Lows, Lower Highs and Lowers lows on charts and their
Even those who are more inclined towards fundamental side can also benefit from Dow theory, as it can hint start & end of Bull/Bear runs thereby indication entry and exits.
Next basic is Wyckoff's Theory. It tells how accumulation and distribution happens with regularity and how the market actually
Dow theory is old but
