View from the Floor
As many people here know, due to my previous articles and poems, I have a disorder known as functional neurological disorder (FND). A huge part of functional neurological disorder for myself, and many others, is a type of seizure called psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES). These seizures, while not dangerous, are very disruptive to daily life. They make me feel alone, weak, and not in control of my own anxiety (and other emotions).

Learning a little about Love
I have a confession to make: I am not the single most confident person in the world. Despite being fairly outspoken at times, a little loud at others and in general a bit manic and over-the-top, I'm actually an introvert. During the course of the years, I've learned that being a wallflower really doesn't help me achieve my goals or make connections with other people. And those connections are important for so many different reasons, but I wont get into them right here and now.

On the Outside. Top Story - August 2023.

The Strange Cases of Tom and Eileen Lonergan
Tom and Eileen Lonergans in January 1998 husband and wife Tom and Eileen were getting back from a Harmony Corps mission in Fiji going to Hawaii both were capable jumpers and concluded they couldn't pass at the possibility plunging at the Incomparable Boundary Reef so on January 25th they loaded up the external edge boat that took them and a gathering of different vacationers 40 miles out to the ocean where they visited three jump destinations the last being a spot named Fish City. The power experience jumpers were happy with going off on their own in the water. Anyway when they reemerged from their plunge to their shock their plunge boat had left without them abandoning them swaying in the huge sea it is standard practice for plunge Journey to do a head stick prior to making a beeline for shore yet on this event something turned out badly none of the vessel's group or travelers saw the two had not returned on board until two days some other time when the boat proprietor thoroughly searched in a pack that had been abandoned that day by the travelers. Quickly alert began to ring when he found Tom's wallet a salvage group was promptly conveyed and broad hunts were made yet unfortunately the couple were gone forever their bodies are prospective adrift somewhere in the middle of the ocean like other horrendous encounters. Tom and Eileen's story was transformed into a film called Open Water I portrayed the couple meeting their end circumnavigated by sharks yet the genuine story is a lot more unnerving just on the grounds that nobody truly realizes what befell them throughout the long term a ton of data has emerged about their lives and the conditions that prompted them being deserted a little while after they were accounted for unaccounted for parts of their plunging gear appeared on shore remembering inflatable coats with their names for air tanks and a lady's wetsuit anyway none of the things had any indications of blood or openings that would be predictable with a shark assault what was odd was the reason the Lonergans had taken off the coat that would assist with keeping them above water it's estimated they might have taken them off trying to swim to shore despite the fact that without the lightness of their coats they would have likely worn themselves out to the mark of fatigue one of the most chilling things was found a half year after they vanished when a plunge record was found by an angler a plunge record is utilized by jumpers so they can impart submerged they are essentially little loads up where data and messages can be composed the plunge record found by the angler was dated January 26 1998 with a period of 8 AM and a message that read if it's not too much trouble, assist us or we with willing kick the bucket the pain note seems to show The Recluse posses were as yet alive basically until the following day likewise found at the couple's house were journals that both Tom and Eileen had kept and a portion of the sections demonstrated everything was not wild in their lives they expounded on despising their positions and frightfully Eileen felt her significant other had fostered a Desire to die Tom's journal seemed to uphold this with a section that read like an understudy who has completed a test I feel that my life is finished and I'm prepared to kick the bucket these Disclosures prompted ideas the couple were either doing a self destruction settlement or the casualties of a homicide self destruction because of Tom one more unusual Hypothesis arose while police were examining the case the commander of one more boat professed to have visited a similar jump spot the following day and may have experienced the couple as per his story the head preceded the vessel's return trip came out two more than the one taken when the boat left port evidently the sightseers on the boat were all from Italy and talked in their local tongue anyway the chief heard a couple of American voices among the sightseers that day assuming that this record is valid it could demonstrate the lonergan's arrangement to go through the night in the sea realizing they could join another jump boat the following day prompting claims The Lonergans faked their own demise this hypothesis was subsequently supported where in excess of 20 individuals approached professing to have seen the solitary agains after they probably vanished anyway considering the two of them abandoned their visas never contacted their financial balances after the episode and their insurance contracts were never traded out this appears to be a digit unrealistic some have addressed why the Lonergans didn't swim to one of the sufficiently bright plunging stages a couple of miles away or waved to a passing boat in spite of the fact that it's been brought up that albeit these things would be effectively noticeable from the deck of a boat they might not have been effortlessly seen from the outer layer of the water Tom had likewise left his glasses on board making it considerably more challenging so that him might find furthermore it's almost certain The Lonergans were in a condition of frenzy they had been left totally alone and as I was ticked by they probably understood that boats wasn't returning for themselves and there was no dynamic salvage in progress coupled this with the intensity from the Sun and absence of crisp drinking water they were logical in a not so great kind of way nobody realizes what happened to The Lonergans and it's difficult to envision being in that particular situation toti alone encompassed by a shark swarmed sea it appears to be far-fetched that they were eaten by sharks like portion of the world's sharks live in the waters around Australia the majority of them are totally innocuous to people all the proof appears to highlight the Lonergans becoming depleted and suffocating obviously botches were made by the boat proprietor and after he was vindicated of murder a common body of evidence was brought against him and the business shut stricter regulations on how jump organizations work and how head counts are taken have additionally been upheld it's terrible to think they probably resided for no less than 48 Hours alone in the sea the case is miserable in light of the fact that except if they deliberately counterfeit their own passing which appears to be impossible this shouldn't have occurred.

5 Most Astonishing Logical Disclosures of the 10 years
The last ten years was obviously one of the most extravagant times of logical disclosure ever specialists across all disciplines tried speculations found demonstrates and visited places that have made us reconsider how we might interpret our own planets as well as of the whole universe it was the ten years when we at last start to comprehend perhaps of the best test humanity has at any point confronted and we've learned undeniably like never before about probably the most disastrous articles in presence so we should investigate five of the most astounding logical disclosures of the 2000 serious number 5 Pluto regardless of having been casually downsized from being a completely fledged planet in 2006 that year additionally saw the send off of the New Skylines space apparatus that was bound to make a trip to the farthest reaches of our nearby planet group to concentrate on the bantam planet it at last arrived at its objective in July of 2015 in the pictures and information that were sent back were surprising a long way from being the drilling frozen rock that some had expected it was found to have moving ice sheets drifting ice mountains and a tremendous frozen ocean made of strong nitrogen the ice is continually moving Arbit at a sluggish rates since it is warmed by the strain above it which thusly makes it rise the steady recharging of the top layer of ice makes a surface designs that nobody had expected and that has given another acquaintance and understanding with what occurs on the secretive bantam planets at the edge of our nearby planet group number four the Higgs bosons it took the development of the world's biggest machine at an expense of just shy of five billion bucks yet in 2012 it was at long last declared that the baffling Higgs a Bolton otherwise called the god molecule have been found at the Enormous Hadron Collider in CERN Switzerland the molecule had first been estimated in 1964 and is one of the most powerful bits of the subatomic world the explanation that it's so significant is that the standard model of physical science which incorporates natural particles like electrons and protons and um from, for example, muons and quarks doesn't really make sense of why items have mass the response however is the slippery Higgs boson molecule which exists in the Higgs field and because of its cooperation with different particles it's the justification for why mass exists his disclosure was the affirmation of the last obscure piece of the standard model of physical science and presently specialists can reuse the LHC to start examining considerably more interesting peculiarity number 3 Kepler for millennia people have shifted focus over to the skies thinking about what's up there as cosmic gadgets were concocted we discovered that innumerable stars existed all through the universe and moved there are different planets in our own planetary group yet it was difficult to figure out how normal it is for planets to circle stars this all different in 2009 with the send off of the main Kepler test which was utilized to concentrate on far off stars and estimated how much light they radiate variances in their brilliance can be utilized to decide if any articles are circling them and the outcomes have been unimaginable toward the finish of the last ten years more than 4055 exoplanets have been found including a not many that are possibly livable and this number is simply expected to increment as we enter another ten years the more we look the more normal our own planetary group is by all accounts and you can hardly comprehend what else is out there to be found number three the world's environments all through the World's set of experiences the environment has changed radically there have been times of outrageous intensity and outrageous cold and there's no question that things are discernibly changing again during our lifetimes what's different this time however is that the progressions are generally because of human conduct something that became more clear than any time in recent memory somewhat recently and we've started to comprehend the degree to what it's meaning for the planet in 2012 400 billion tons of ice was lost from Greenland and in excess of 250 two billion tons of ice has been lost from Antarctica consistently during the time this is an increment of right multiple times the sum being lost only thirty years sooner and at the momentum rate the world's ocean levels are supposed to ascend by 3 feet continuously 2100 this would straightforwardly influence the homes and resides of no less than 630 million individuals except for the results are far additional arriving at human action has implied that 40% of all land and water proficient species over 33% of marine vertebrates and 10% of bug species are jeopardized and things keeps on deteriorating while the last ten years was the time where the degree of the issue was starting to be completely understood hopefully that the following ten years is the point at which the arrangement is at last found at long last number one dark openings dark openings have for some time been the absolute most puzzling items known to man yet because of specialists devoting their endeavors to concentrating on the peculiarities we've revealed definitely more about them and they are substantially more fascinating than you might suspect dark openings are commonly framed by huge stars toward the finish of their lives and when every one of the material falls in on itself to make a fantastically thick construction and due to their extreme gravity costs an exceptionally strange things to occur in 2016 - dark openings were recognized crashing into each other which affirmed the expectation made by Einstein in 1916 by which they made swells in space-time known as gravitational waves this astonishing revelation wasn't the greatest dark opening disclosure of the last ten years anyway as a group working with the occasion skyline telescope figured out how to catch the very first picture of a solitary arity a gigantic dark opening lies at the focal point of the More chaotic 87 system around 54 million light-years from us in his mass is huge to the point that that is the comparable to 6.5 billion of our Suns dark openings like those are believed to be at the focal point of each and every universe and their gravitational shafts are the justification for why such countless stars circle them in such enormous designs the 2010 were an unbelievable time for logical disclosures and we've found out such a great amount about the world and universe surrounding us and I most definitely can hardly hold on to see what occurs next thank you all such a huge amount for watching see you sometime later
