A-064 La Creatura

## Item A-064 "La Creatura"

Experimental neural rendering of A-064 from Operative Specter's memories from initial containment.

## CACG Item File

Item A-064 is a creature of both indeterminate description and origin. It possesses two distinct anomalous properties, the first being an anomalous ability that allows them to "disappear" into crevices and closed-in spaces. Once they reach a crack or crevice, they are capable of seemingly phasing out of existence and reappearing at a separate location in a different crack or crevice. The second anomalous property it possesses is a psychohazard regarding its appearance. All sentient beings that observe A-064 are rendered incapable of describing its appearance, the only recorded exception being Operative Specter following the infamous "Eros Incident."

A-064 was first discovered hiding inside one of the Group's own facilities prior to containment. The facility it resided in was Eros-3, a site that specialized in the containment and handling of psychohazardous items. Before A-064 was known to exist, there was a string of cases of researchers going through psychotic breaks at random, claiming that a "creature" was stalking them through the facility's halls. These incidents were proven to be cases where A-064 would stalk a target, slowly driving them insane for no clear reason. After narrowly avoiding a meltdown of the on-site reactor at Eros-3, site administration called for the dispatch of Task Force "Cryptid Catchers." Following a nearly 3-hour hunt, the containment team came back with A-064 in tow.

It isn't known if A-064 is truly sentient, or just a creature acting on instinct alone. It doesn't seem to require food or water, nor any other typical biological necessities. As of writing, its stalking behaviours have still not been explained, despite a round of tests being approved by Administration and carried out by GEO-7's on site psychohazard research team. More rounds of testing have yet to be approved by site administration.
Ever get that feeling of Déjà Vu? - TAS and You IMS Bulletin

**ARCHIVAL NOTE:** The following is an archived version of a public health bulletin issued in relation to Temporal Awareness Syndrome (TAS). Published and translated by the Grail's International Medical Society and written by an anonymous doctor.

## Temporal Awareness Syndrome and You!

### What's this bulletin about?

Ever get the feeling that you've been here and done that before? Or even that everything has changed overnight? You're not crazy, and it's not just déjà or jamais vu. Following the IMS' rigorous clinical trials and case studies, as well as cooperation from both SACA and the ARI, a new medical condition has been identified in humans known as Temporal Awareness Syndrome (TAS). TAS has been found in a small percent of the population, but the number is growing every day as TAS is thought to be hereditary in nature.

### So what exactly is TAS?

TAS is a medical disorder in which the human consciousness is isolated from the timeline it inhabits, allowing it to recall events before that occur before the effects of timeline-altering events (TAEs). This may involve recalling an event or fact that's already happened in a previous iteration of the timeline, such as remembering a specific scenario as it's happening, or recalling an event of fact that has been changed by a TAE, such as well known facts seemingly changing overnight, or parts of history inexplicably changing without mass awareness.

### So what if I have TAS?

While TAS is not directly harmful on its own, it can have detrimental effects on a patient's everyday life. Sufferer's of TAS may have daily occurrences of déjà vu and jamais vu, as well as episodes of "lost time" experiences caused by the onset of TAEs. These may even eventually accumulate into full-on psychosis induced by the pressure of having such memories of alternate timelines. However, TAS *is* considered treatable with an orally-administered primitive neurosuppressant under the name "Stopwatch." Following findings in clinical trials of its 78% success rate, as well as an lack of serious side-effects with regular usage, daily doses of Stopwatch are the only IMS-approved treatment for TAS.

```
If you or a loved one are experiencing regular and intrusive bouts of déjà vu, jamais vu, lost time, or other related cognitotemporal symptoms, TAS evaluations will be provided and treated free of charge at your local IMS-partnered hospital.

```

## GardenOS Messenger Transcript

Eden: I found this while searching the Grail cyberspace. www.saveyourtime.com/TAS\_and\_You. TAS. What an interesting disorder 🤔

Hellscream: Looks pretty rough. @Fate do you experience this?

Here Lies Fate: It appears not

Hellscream: You do mess with time though right?

Here Lies Fate: I visit Time yes 👍🏾

Eden: I'm assuming it only affects the people in CMLT or other. Either that, or Elysians are immune to the disorder. I will look into this. I'm sure they won't mind if I nab a copy of everything

Imperialist: Thanks for letting us know Eden. This is actually very interesting

Subject Number: 038

Subject Name(s): T̶͊͘h̸́̔ë̶̑ ̸͒̕A̷͊̑b̴͆͑ÿ̶́s̵̛̍s̷̿̌

Classification: Aspect Abaddon

Status: A̵̛̽l̵̥̍ỉ̵̉v̸̋́e̸͆́,̷̑̔ ̸̓̌C̸͋̽o̴̊̐n̶̽̏s̶̊̏u̵̐̕m̵͂̈́i̵͋͘n̸͆̔g̷̑͆,̶͑̈ ̴̔̉C̵͗̒ö̸́̓r̷̀̿r̴͌̾u̶͐̓ṗ̵̓t̴̆̓i̵͒̆n̴̒͠ġ̶̊

Description: Subject-038 was initially thought to be an tragic event, an odd phenomenon but upon closer inspection was revealed to be something more. Maybe it was originally as such and became this being, or maybe it was always like this. Regardless when that gate was opened something shot out before everything went to shit.

038 is the spawn of the original Omni God before he fell to despair. Initially it was something akin to a fetus…however it began to feed off of the depravity in the world and became something more.

038 is the dark within man, and therefore the influences of it can spread like virus. Fighting it is possible, however maintaining the will to is the main issue. 038 has swallowed countries, nations, and regions. It won’t be satisfied til all life has accepted its warm embrace and become one with the Abyss.

The most frightening thing about 038 is how it doesn’t try to fight you unless you engage. Their aura is enough to persuade the weak, it’s like a toxin. A shadowy figure walks up to you and your natural instinct should be to run, however you feel oddly safe. Warm even, like a child held by their mother. This is how several regions have fell without a single fight having to be started. One can only hope the Magistars will be different.

### Investigation Underway

It appears that Subject-038's file has been written by either a Non-Syndicate Agent or an Agent under a form of psychological influence. An investigation is now underway to find out who wrote the file. However, it is understood that Subject-038 is neither from CRDNCE-218 or CMLT-919 due to its entire nature and apparent nature of taking over countries. These are assumed to be countries from a different planet in a different universe. If we are able to trace back the file creation to its exact location, we may be able to find and infiltrate this universe.

Portrait of Judas Havelock

## Syndicate Database File

Subject Number: 027

Subject Name(s): Mad Djinn, Judas Havelock

Classification: ~~Hellscream~~ Reverent

Status: Alive. General of the Syndicate

Description: Judas Havelock is a Caucasian male standing at 5’10 and weighs 153 lbs. He wears a biker’s jacket with the Syndicate symbol imprinted on it. He has multi shaded hair due to his mutations and possesses red eyes like his father Matthew Havelock. He has the Brand of the Leviathan on the right side of his neck.

Judas Havelock has the ability to use corruption abilities much like his father, however, his abilities are much stronger than him. He made a direct pact with the Leviathan to further strengthen his corruption abilities and mitigate the drawbacks, including physical self-harm and degradation of mental health. He is able to create entire structures out of corruption and disguise them as normal buildings or objects [**EDIT: As of December 2022 A.D. he has increased the prowess of his abilities, being able to create entire humanoid beings out of Corruption, replicating everything about them, right down to their heat signatures**]. This is to trick people that have holy abilities to weaken and/or kill them He is also able to shoot corruptive projectiles from his palms for long range combat.

Judas Havelock is the current General of the Syndicate and is the devout Disciple of the Leviathan. He has an extreme hatred for the Seraph due to assassinating his father and wants to take over the Multiverse with the Leviathan to get rid of all things that aren’t human.

Judas has set his eyes on the CACG and Seraphim and wants to destroy all parallel versions of the Seraph to continue his father’s mission of Multiversal domination, as he believes he is the largest obstacle to their plan.

**Subject Number:** 012

**Subject Name(s):** New Age Gaia. Conviction, Daughter Nature

**Classification:** Aspect Sublime

**Description:** Subject-012 is a young biracial female that stands at 5’4” and weighs around 130lbs. She wears a pink tracksuit and white cross-country sneakers. Subject-012 has a modified instance of Subject-001 Alpha on her left cheek. This is probably due to being in the first generation of born pure Elysians. She usually is seen with a tiara made entirely of twigs and grass knots with a flower to adorn the center.  Subject-012 has the ability of Spatial Manipulation and the ability to control plant life. She is the daughter of Seraph and twin sister to Dawcus.

Subject-012 is known in CRDNCE-218 as The Goddess of Earth, but her anomalous abilities expand beyond the entire planet. She is able to effectively terraform any planet under her choosing, regardless of the distance from a star it orbits, this is mostly due to her additional ability to manipulate Space, as she can change the very laws of the Universe to fit her goals. She is also able to control machinery through her Terran powers and have them bend to her wishes and wills.

* Mercury
* Pluto
* The Crab Nebula
* Polaris
* Ursa Major
* Kelper-22b
* The Andromeda Galaxy
How do Electron Microscopes (Scanning) Work?

Scanning Electron Microscopes are used to produce very sharp, 3D images by scanning the surface of extremely tiny objects.

A Scanning Electron Microscope consists of an electron gun.

Once the object to be scanned is placed, this gun is used to shoot a focused electron beam at it.

Scanning Electron Microscope consists of a series of electromagnetic coils.

These coils can pull the electron beam back as well as forth.

They systematically scan the entire surface of the object.

This electron beam does not pass through the object, rather it is reflected off its surface.

These reflected electrons or secondary electrons are directed at a Cathode-ray TV Screen.

The image of the scanned object is formed on this screen.

This is how a Scanning Electron Microscope works.

What if Face Masks were made Compulsory?

With everybody wearing face masks, contagious diseases may soon fade away worldwide.

But on the flip side: Firstly, face mask factories will start popping up all around the world.

Secondly, face mask will slowly become a fashion accessory. People will start wearing designer face masks.

Thirdly, with face masks compulsory, lipstick and lip balm industry will probably face gloomy times.

Fourthly, dating with face masks will probably be awkward to start with, but people will slowly but surely get used to it.

Lastly, with face masks compulsory and beards and moustaches no longer visible, men will probably stop caring whether to shave or not.

On a serious note, people will have to clean their face masks regularly else the entire process will be futile.
Why do comets have tails?

A comet is a mixture of rocks, dust and ice

This ice is basically frozen water and frozen gases.

When a comet approaches the sun, it starts to heat up converting ice directly into gas and releasing the trapped dust particles in space.

The ultraviolet radiations from the sun ionize the gas and the solar wind carries this ionized gas away from the sun, forming an ion tail.

Whereas, the light from the sun exerts pressure on the dust particles and pushes them away, creating a dust tail.
How do Portable Oxygen Concentrators Work?

In simple terms, an Oxygen Concentrator takes in air and removes nitrogen from it.

Our air is 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen.

Removal of nitrogen leaves an oxygen-enriched gas.

This gas can be used by people requiring medical oxygen.

Oxygen concentrator consists of an air compressor.

It takes in air from the atmosphere, compresses it and passes it over porous zeolite minerals.

Zeolite adsorbs large quantity of nitrogen from air because of its large surface area and chemical characteristics.

The remaining oxygen-rich gas is used for medicinal purposes while the nitrogen is desorbed from zeolite under reduced pressure and vented out.

In Portable Oxygen Concentrators as high purity is not essential and feed gas can be discarded, size of the adsorbent bed is reduced and Rapid pressure swing adsorption or RPSA is frequently used.

A-057 Lance of Galahad

## Item A-057 "Lance of Galahad"

Original recovery site of Item A-057. Relativistic distortion prevents a direct picture of the Item from being taken.

## CACG Item File

Item A-057 is a lance made from an unidentifiable purple metal. It was initially recovered in the [DATA REDACTED] Mountain Ranges when it autonomously and rapidly terraformed its landing zone. It's presumed that it simply fell out of a Multiversal rift, since there was a large burst of anomalous energy detected in the area before A-057's arrival. Since initial containment, A-057 has not yet exhibited its original autonomous capabilities. All attempts to identify the metal have turned up nothing, further strengthening the theory that it is extradimensional in origin.

A-057 is capable of manipulating the universes it inhabits on a fundamental level within a 15 meter radius, violating the Law of Conservation of Mass as well as basic causality. It seems however that only some individuals are capable of using A-057. As of writing, it's thought that the ability to use A-057 is tied directly to a genetic trait common in reality warping Subjects in the Group's possession. How common or rare this trait is, however, is still under heavy investigation by both the Group and partner organizations.

Due to both the inherent danger of A-057's powers and usage, as well as the genetic requirement it has for use, Administration has barred the Item from being used in an operational capacity. However, Administration has approved a contingency list of every possible user of A-057 in case of Code MARY End of World (EOW) events.
What if Coronavirus Never Disappeared?

Firstly, if coronavirus never disappeared, then it would mean that an effective vaccine was never found, everybody will be heartbroken.

Secondly, if coronavirus never disappeared, everyone may have to continue wearing masks, using sanitizers & maintaining social distancing.

Thirdly, if coronavirus never disappeared, Restaurants, Movies theaters, Theme parks, Gyms etc. will have to continue operating under restrictions.

Fourthly, if coronavirus never disappeared, sporting events as well as concerts will be extremely difficult to organize.

Fifthly, if coronavirus never disappeared, travel restrictions may continue, tourism industry might collapse.

Sixthly, if coronavirus never disappeared, lockdowns may be further extended, people might start protesting, governments will have to find alternative solutions.

Lastly, if coronavirus never disappeared, doctors as well as nurses may have to get used to grueling work schedules.
The Project

The Government of the Russian Federation is conducting an unknown **Project** using the army. The history of the Project is unknown, but, according to General Sviridov, a some piece of the Project has disappeared and needs to be returned. Some courier is going to deliver it to Georgiy Lastochkin, so it can be assumed that the piece was stolen or picked up by a grouping hostile to the Project.
King Arthur

## Syndicate Database File

### Subject Overview

Subject-047, also known as Arthur Dracano, is a male human of unclear descent. Historical records stated that they stood at 6'5" (195.58cm) with no accounts on their weight. According to historical records dating back more than a century, 047 was the founder and "king" of the Kingdom of Camelot, although their role as monarch was more that of a figurehead. They were well-acquainted with Subject-046, allying with them on multiple occasions to defeat threats to Camelot. Until 047's "ascension" as a Pillar of Reality, it is estimated that they had slain an high number of Abaddon-level entities, multiple Blest and Pious level entities, and at least one recorded Sublime-level entity while defending Camelot and its respective universe.

### Anomalous Traits

Prior to 047's ascension as a Pillar, they exhibited inhuman reserves of endurance, strength, and willpower. This is easily demonstrated by the battles they fought in the "War for Camelot," tearing through enemy troops in day long battles without rest, all the way until they overthrew the reigning emperor. Although unconfirmed, it is hypothesized that 047 had even achieved reality bending feats through sheer willpower.

Following ascension, 047 has gained an unknown degree of control of the CMLT-919 Cluster of universes, being able to "nudge" things from time to time. Due to the lack of activity in recent years, it is believed that 047 is either limited in power, or limited in ideology. More research needed.

### Containment Procedures

As Subject-047 is a Pillar of Reality at present, there are no clear way to contain them. As their activity has come to a standstill in recent times however, it is safe to assume they will not interfere with operations conducted within CMLT-919, at least for the time being. By order of the General, further research must be conducted before any new containment orders will be given.
The Fall

The Fall is the first song on half•alive's first EP, *3*. It was also the band's first single ever. It was first conceived on November 18, 2015, as number 41 in Josh Taylor's 50 song project. The song was recorded in the Mojave Desert, and was written by Josh Taylor, Brett Kramer, Faith Dunsterville, and James Krausse. It was released on April 24, 2017.
Vladislav Talkov

**Vladislav Talkov** (Владисла́в Талько́в) is an antagonist in *Moscow Calling*.

He is a member of the Orthodox Alliance of Alexander Peresvet, and therefore he is often addressed by office - Father Vlad (Отец Влад) (Short for Vladislav). Works as a priest in Sergiev PosadW and as a secret agent in the Project. Offered for work by the Metropolitan, he reports to General Sviridov, helping to find the Missing Piece.

## History

### Background

Father Vlad is an Orthodox priest, as well as a government secret agent.

### Search of Georgiy Lastochkin

General Sviridov gets Father Vlad to find Georgiy Lastochkin, intercept the Missing Piece and eliminate Georgiy, and then return the part. To find him, he flies to Vladivostok, but does not find George at the university, which is why he is forced to go to his home. There he discusses Georgiy's disappearance from home with his mother, but she notices that Father Vlad arrived from Moscow due to his watch showing Moscow time, and orders him to leave. He confirms that he's a member of the Orthodox Alliance of Alexander Peresvet, but when he tries to get closer to pick up a farewell note from Georgiy, he is injured on the cheek, which provokes Vlad's Stand, Stigmata, and almost kills Lena, who is saved by the Stand owner's order to stop. Father Vlad, apologizing that he did not want to touch the mother of Georgiy and Varya, leaves.

## Trivia

* The relationship between Father Vlad and General Sviridov refers to the song of Vyacheslav Butusov and "Orden Slavy" ("Орден Славы") - Поэт и Правитель (which translates as "Poet and the King"), where they are respectively the Poet and King, which also helps to understand them.
J Tyler Johnson

J Tyler Ross Johnson is the bassist for half•alive.

## History with half•alive

J Tyler met Josh Taylor through J Tyler's brother, Jordan Johnson, one half of JA Collective. He also independently met Brett Kramer through playing the same festivals, and attending the same college[1]. J Tyler joined the band shortly after the release of their debut EP, *3,* completing the trio.

## Personal Life

On November 9, 2020, he married his wife, Emiko Rochelle. He is 28 years old.
Task Force City Slickers

### Purpose

To combat and contain anomalies within urban environments. Aids other task forces as needed and minimizes casualties at all costs.

## CACG Task Force File

Task Force "City Slickers" is an urban tactics and environments unit within the Camelot Anomalous Containment Group (CACG), meant to efficiently contain anomalies within urban environments and minimize collateral damage as well as civilian casualties in urban combat scenarios. Due to the nature of their operations, City Slickers is only authorized to operate within Camelot's borders with the only exception being the Auris Republic, upon request.

City Slickers is a General Task Force, making it one of the first stops for operatives looking to complete their tours for ETF qualification. Due to their general specialization, City Slickers will often accompany more specialized task forces to aid in containment and damage minimization. Each member of City Slickers is authorized to access equipment and barracks housing within GEO-7 coded GTF and below.

Currently, City Slickers is commanded by Sergeant Marcus Rowe. Given the environments in which they operate, City Slickers members are rigorously trained on trigger discipline, as well as quick anomaly identification in hectic or chaotic situations such as those found in urban centers. As well as this, all operators within City Slickers are equipped with rescue equipment to save citizens when needed. The task force's most famous operations include the containment of Item A-044 ("The Metal Plague") in a joint operation with Task Force "Hazard Hunters," as well as the solo containment of Item A-041 ("Snake Oil").

What are Stomach Ulcers?

Stomach ulcers or gastric ulcers are painful sores in the lining of our stomach. They occur when the protective layer of mucus in our stomach gets damaged. This can be caused due to the following reasons,

First is a type of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori. Through contaminated food or water, when these bacteria enter our stomach, they start to breakdown the mucus. As a result, the stomach acid which digests our food, begins to irritate and damage the lining of our stomach, thus causing a stomach ulcer.

Second is long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin and ibuprofen. These drugs gradually reduce and slow down the production of mucus, thus allowing the stomach acid to create an ulcer.

Lastly, in very rare cases, it is also believed that excess production of stomach acid is the culprit behind stomach ulcers.
Kits

A kit is a set of armor and weapons you can use in the game for the battles. Most are made by Dexx and Wheels8000, by some are made by others, like Vel69691. Kits might contain a really OP sword and bad armor like the Fighter kit, or Oaken's Mighty Sword like the Nature kit. Every kit is different.

### Trivia

* As stated by DiamondDexx, aka Dexx, each kit is a "person" in the trailers. They are the same person in each trailer.
How does a Lie Detector Test Work?

A polygraph machine consists of multiple sensors whose response is recorded in the form of a graph on a single strip of paper.

These sensors are attached to the person taking the Lie Detector Test.

These sensors usually record the following: The person's breathing rate, pulse, blood pressure and perspiration i.e sweat.

Some polygraphs also record arm and leg movement of the person.

Now, when the test starts, a number of questions are asked by the examiner to the person.

During the test, all the signals coming from the person are recorded on the moving paper.

Now, while examining the paper the examiner can see whether any vital signs changed significantly during any of the questions.

Generally, a significant change in vital signs indicates that a person may be lying.

What if Coronavirus Disappeared?

Firstly, the current depression filled atmosphere will be replaced with positive smiles all around.

Secondly, people who have been under lockdown for months will surely jump with excitement.

Thirdly, months of lockdown has given people a lot of time to think about life in general.

Hopefully after lockdown, we will have a much more cheerful, responsible and fitter society.

Fourthly, schools and industries will open up, people will start going to jobs, the economy will start roaring again.

Fifthly, health infrastructure around the world has been under severe stress, if coronavirus disappears, doctors and nurses will heave a sigh of relief.

Lastly, public health will be given a lot of importance worldwide so that such pandemics do not occur again.

On the flip side, pollution levels might start rising again.
Are Canned foods Safe?

Canning is basically a method in which food items are processed and then packed in airtight containers.

This helps preserve food for longer periods.

However, there are some disadvantages of canned foods.

Firstly, canned foods can be high in sugar and salt.

So, they can pose a risk for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, etc.

Secondly, most cans have a coating of Bisphenol A to prevent corrosion.

Studies suggest that Bisphenol A can leak into the food and have negative effects on our hormones and reproductive system.

Thirdly, the acids present in food can react with the metal can and produce hydrogen gas, creating bulges, thus making food unsafe to eat.

Lastly, improper canning process can lead to growth of dangerous bacteria called clostridium botulinum.

It produces a lethal toxin which if consumed, can paralyze our muscles, and cause death if left untreated.
Why do old books smell so good?

Smell of old books is basically because of paper and ink in those books.

Paper is primarily made up of wood.

Wood is made up of organic compounds like cellulose and lignin.

Over the years, these compounds react to heat, light and moisture, and begin to breakdown releasing VOCs.

VOCs stand for volatile organic compounds

These compounds easily vaporize and mix in the air, thus forming the smell of old books.

Now, there are different types of VOCs.

A volatile organic compound called vanillin gives vanilla like smell.

Another VOC benzaldehyde gives almond like smell.

Ethyl benzene gives a sweet smell.

In short, the combination of various compounds makes old books smell so good.
Are Preservatives Bad for you?

A preservative is a substance added to foods, cosmetics, medicines, etc. to prevent them from spoiling.

For example, preservatives like salt and sugar prevent the growth of harmful microbes in foods, thus preventing them from spoiling. However, a high amount of salt and sugar can increase the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart diseases, etc.

Some food items even have preservatives like benzoic acid to inhibit the growth of harmful microbes. But benzoic acid is said to cause hyperactivity in children, asthma, etc. Sorbic acid which is used in cosmetics can cause skin irritation.

In people suffering from asthma, preservatives like sulfites can cause very serious problems like difficulty in breathing, tightness in chest, etc. Hence, it is very important to check the preservatives used and have them in moderate amounts.
Conditions Of A Punk

***Conditions of a Punk*** is the second studio album by American band Half Alive, released on December 2, 2022, via RCA Records. It was preceded by the singles "What's Wrong", "Summerland", "Make of It", "Hot Tea", "Move Me", "Did I Make You Up?", and "High Up".

## Background

Starting in early 2021, Half Alive began promotion of their planned sophomore record, *Give Me Your Shoulders*, which was announced as a two part album. Five singles were released before the release of the first part, *Give Me Your Shoulders, Pt. 1*, on February 11, 2022.

On September 12, 2022, the band announced the cancellation of *Give Me Your Shoulders, Pt. 2* via the release of a spoken word track titled "Night Swims (poem)". On October 13, the first single for the new album, “Did I Make You Up?”, was released alongside the official announcement of *Conditions of a Punk*. A release date of December 2 was announced. The album's track list, which includes every track from *Give Me Your Shoulders, Pt. 1*, was announced on October 20. The day before the album was released, the band announced the Conditions Of A Punk Tour that would take place in North America and the UK in 2023.

According to Josh Taylor, the album marks the first time that the band allowed themselves to write about the topic of love. Comparing it to their first album, *Now, Not Yet* is more cerebral, speaking *about* a subject (e.g. trust or rest), while *Conditions of a Punk* is more emotional with the band now singing *to* a subject instead. The religious undertones seen in the former are present in the latter as well, described as being "about a person and God in the same breath." The album title derives from Taylor's personal experiences, who agrees with his past characterization as a "punk" from friends in the egotistical, self-serving connotation of the word. The songs are therefore informed by a decade of "unlearning what [he] thought Love was", depicting the death of the ego and the punk via the breaking and mending of a heart.

Heres Why:

We see objects when light from those objects enters our eyes and hits the retina. But, when we blink, our retina doesn't receive any light.

Then, why doesn't it appear dark?

Because our brain suppresses this information from retina, ignoring the darkness. Thus, we don't consciously realize that it has gone dark.

Also, experts say, a part of our brain called Medial Prefrontal Cortex, stores the last image we see before blinking and uses it to fill in the darkness. Thus, we feel that we are watching a continuous picture, without interruption.

In addition to this, if we blink while watching a moving object, our brain gauges the difference in positions of the moving object, before and after the blink. Accordingly, it adjusts our eye muscles, helping them maintain focus on the moving object, even after the blink.
Is Butter Coffee healthy?

First of all, butter coffee is simply plain brewed coffee mixed with butter.

People in the Himalayas, Nepal, Tibet etc. have been drinking it for centuries.

It offers the following advantages:

Firstly, it can be easily prepared at home.

Secondly, butter has traditionally met the energy needs of people living and working in high altitude areas.

Thirdly, some people drink butter coffee to promote ketosis.

Ketosis is a metabolic process in which our body burns stored fat for energy instead of glucose.

Lastly, as it contains a large amount of fat it may increase feeling of fullness.

But on the flip side, too much of anything is never good for the body.

Too much butter coffee can lead to over-consumption of calories which may lead to several negative health effects.

Coronavirus Myths

Myth No 1: Eating garlic can help avoid infection. Consuming garlic has its advantages but as per WHO it does not protect us from COVID-19.

Myth No 2: Drink water every 15 minutes. There is no evidence to suggest that this virus can be flushed out of the system by drinking a lot of water.

Myth No 3: Don't eat ice cream. It is being believed that not eating cold food and thus keeping the body heated will make it difficult for the virus to survive. This is not true.

Myth No 4: Drinkable Silver. Some are suggesting drinking tiny particles of silver suspended in liquid. It is risky to do so and it is not shown to cure COVID-19 nor boost our immunity.

Myth No 5: Holding Breath. If a person can hold breath for more than 10 seconds then one can avoid infection. Experts say this is simply not true.

Myth No 6: Use of Vodka as a Hand Sanitizer. This is not true because it does not contain enough alcohol to kill the virus.

Why do Airplane Wings Wobble?

When an aircraft is flying at a constant speed and at a constant altitude then the same amount of force will be pushing it up as well as down i.e. the net force will be zero.

Now if the plane enters an area of higher air density say a large cloud then this would lead to an increase in the force pushing it up i.e. lift force will increase.

As a result the plane is pushed upwards and its wings temporarily bend up in the process.

Now if the plane enters an area of lower density i.e. it comes out of the cloud then the lift force is reduced, as a result the plane comes down, its wings bend back down.

This sudden change in lift force is what causes the plane wings to wobble.

Is eating too much Protein Bad?

Protein helps build new cells and repair old ones. As it boosts muscle strength, high-protein diets are beneficial for athletes. However, eating just protein could be a bad idea.

Firstly, full-fat dairy products and red meat which are high in proteins also contain saturated fat. Studies suggest that saturated fat increases bad cholesterol, thus increasing the risk of heart disease.

Secondly, excess protein can cause damage in people with preexisting kidney disorders. This is because the weak kidneys have to work harder to remove excess nitrogen found in proteins.

Thirdly, high-protein diet restricts our carbohydrate intake. So, through a process called ketosis, our body begins to breakdown stored fats to produce energy. But as this process produces smelly gas, it leads to bad breath.

Lastly, dietary fiber regulates bowel movements. So, a carnivore diet which includes mostly animal protein and no fiber can cause constipation.
Should Everyone wear Masks?

WHO recommends masks to be worn by the following people:

People who are either sick or showing symptoms.

Also, by those who are caring for people suspected of having coronavirus.

As per WHO, medical masks should be reserved for healthcare workers.

WHO is not recommending masks for public for the following reasons:

Firstly, people might use masks which are contaminated by other people's coughs and sneezes.

Secondly, wearing masks might offer people a false sense of security.

Thirdly, as per WHO social distancing and frequent hand-washing are more effective.

Now, as per the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control if non-surgical face masks are worn by public then they might help control infection by those people who are infected with coronavirus by do not show any symptoms yet.

This will prove to be useful in busy and closed spaces like shopping malls, grocery stores, etc.
What is a Coronavirus?

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses.

They are found in animals as well as humans.

Some of them are known to infect people and cause illnesses such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome i.e. MERS and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome i.e. SARS.

Novel coronavirus or 2019-nCoV is a new strain of coronavirus which was first detected in Wuhan, China in December 2019.

The disease caused by novel coronavirus is named as COVID-19.

Here "CO" & "VI" are taken from the word coronavirus, while D stands for disease and 19 stands for year 2019.

Some people might suffer from mild symptoms like runny nose, sore throat, cough and fever because of the virus while some might experience severe symptoms leading to pneumonia.

For some people, this disease has also proven to be fatal.

Research is still on, but the animal source of the novel coronavirus has not yet been identified.

Why do we have different time zones?

Our earth rotates on its own axis.

Due to this rotation, different parts of the earth receive different amounts of sunlight, thus causing morning, noon, evening and night.

Now, if we had one time zone, then 12 pm would be noon at some places, but it would be night or evening at other places which would be inconvenient.

Hence, scientists made different time zones according to the earth's rotation with respect to the sun.

Do you know how?

The earth makes one full 360 degrees rotation in 24 hours.

This means in one hour, the earth moves by 15 degrees.

Using this information, scientist divided the planet into 24 sections or time zones.

Each section or region was about 15 degrees wide and had a specific standard time.

This helped us know the proper time of the day in that part of the earth.
Why do some People get Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are twisted, swollen veins that often appear on the legs, but can appear anywhere else on the body.

Usually, our veins carry blood against gravity.

Hence, they have special valves which close at specific intervals to prevent the backflow of blood.

However, sometimes when the valves don’t close properly, the blood begins to pool around the valves, thus leading to varicose veins.

Let us see some causes of varicose veins.

Firstly, during pregnancy, the increasing volume of blood and uterus put pressure on the veins, eventually leading to varicose veins.

Secondly, being overweight leads to increase in pressure on the veins, thus causing varicose veins.

Lastly, due to prolonged periods of standing or with age, our valves can get weaker, thus increasing the risk of varicose veins.

Note that varicose veins can be painful, and they can lead to blood clots, ulcers and bleeding.
