Twinpods (12/31/20, see 12/23/20 too): Season’s Greetings 2021! {Free money?: you can begin to get free money daily with Stanford ‘Mine Pi’ crypto-currency; use this code: sgkmac }


 Season’s Greetings 2021!

Scott & Jane MacLeod, Christmas, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 2019


Dear friends,

Happy New Year 2021! And Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!

What are you up to over these upcoming holidays? Will you celebrate with family in video conferencing? The Brown kin (the maiden name of my mother) will be getting together tomorrow in Skype video ;) and some Cuttyhunk family and friends on Xmas Day in Google Meet! 

I hope this finds you well! 

Here's the Earlham College (the college my mother went to her first year) aging reversal article, in the Harvard Medical School in Ophthalmology!: 

“Earlham grads named co-authors on groundbreaking study that reversed the clock on aging”

 


And All, is this article suggesting promising research for getting genetic material to MUSCLES????? -

NeuBase Therapeutics Announces Positive Preclinical In Vivo Data for PATrOL™-enabled Anti-gene for the Treatment of Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/12/16/2146014/0/en/NeuBase-Therapeutics-Announces-Positive-Preclinical-In-Vivo-Data-for-PATrOL-enabled-Anti-gene-for-the-Treatment-of-Myotonic-Dystrophy-Type-1.html

Genetic aging reversal by adding genes back into aging cells is indeed a novel re-conceptualizing and not easy to get my mind around in the details. 

And what are your thoughts about AGING REVERSAL via genetic engineering - re Harvard / MIT Prof of Genetics' George Church's thinking: 

"How soon could humans reverse the aging process with genetic engineering?"

https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk (1 minute) (and see the 'longevity label in this blog - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/longevity).

And what about getting genetic information via genetic engineering to bones next, re aging reversal questions? 


    Glad to have given this UC Berkeley Anthropology Tourism Studies' talk on Friday, 12/18/2020:

“(S. MacLeod) Creating a Realistic Virtual Earth for Tourism and Tourism Studies with Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springs: A Case Study”

    Glad too the ANNUAL Meeting for WUaS – World University and School - (re WUaS Monthly Business Meeting in the manner of Friends) went well, and its Minutes are sent - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2020/12/sat-dec-19-2020-wuas-minutes-for-open.html

    Another fascinating remarkable development:

FREE MONEY?: you can begin to get free money daily with Stanford ‘Mine Pi’ crypto-currency; use this code: sgkmac 

The mine-able Stanford 'Mine Pi' crypto-currency - minepi.com/sgkmac (and, on your smartphone, please use sgkmac as a referral code) - could become the basis for single crypto-currency in all ~200 countries.

WORLD UNIV & SCH is seeking to facilitate high quality free universal education (wiki too) to all 7.8 billion people on the planet, and in all ~200 countries, and in 7,117 known living languages, as well as to alleviate poverty among all 7.8 billion people, potentially by distributing a single crypto-currency backed by most of ~200 countries’ central banks as Universal Basic Income experiments. 


    And glad also to have almost finished recording in digital form my first musical album - 'Honey in the Bag' Scottish Small Pipes' bagpiping album -

https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/ 

http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm  :)

- and as a first iteration, and here's a track from it, "The Pumpkin's Fancy" -  

https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/track/the-pumpkins-fancy-h-scott-gk-macleod


More about my Scottish Small Pipes' album here, and with Yo Yo Ma and Steve Martin (on banjo) - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/10/turquoise-parrot-neophema-pulchella.html?m=0 - inspirations!


    And 5TH Book is coming any day now (it's a birthing process:) -

"Light, Float, Sit, Watsu ~ Virtually: Bodymind Electricity Sings to Me at Harbin Hot Springs & Other Traveling Poems" - emerging soon, but besides a few blog entries, there aren't any web pages for this yet, but you'll find it here ~ https://www.amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity ~ and in the Poetry Press at World University and School ~ http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html ~ a new publishing house! :)

If aging reversal pans out, it's a whole new world! Time grows longer, much longer! Much love for longer? To be seen! 


    Friendly inquiry: Is the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic of the past year in part a worldwide fire drill, with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 virus) being tested now one of many viruses giving rise to the ‘common cold?’ Were the events in Wuhan, China, and in Lombardy and Veneto, Italy, products of laboratories that got this pandemic happening in the internet news’ media? Further thoughts in blog and re 5 hypothetical news’ items are here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/04/himalyan-monal-how-are-harbin-hot.html. If so, this might be very good news regarding the genetic engineering revolution underway, and for preparedness in the event of an emergency and in many other ways.

Warm greetings from the San Francisco Bay Area.

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year!

Warmest regards, Scott

PS

It’s been another generative year for ideas in terms of daily blog posts - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com - as well.


Happy New Year and best wishes to all of you and your loved ones in this holiday season!

Sincerely,

Scott

Most beautiful Piobaireachds ~

Since Piobaireachds are almost always laments or sad, I think, I wonder if it's Scots ways of playing the blues, in a way :) How to add, in one way or another, a blues idiom to Piobaireachd on a 9 note chanter, and for musicians to riff together, too ;~) ?



Excellent, Taylor! 


Since Piobaireachds are almost always laments or sad, I think, I wonder if it's Scots ways of playing the blues, in a way :) ... Am wondering too whether we could explore adding, literally, in one way or another, a blues idiom to Piobaireachd on a 9 note chanter :_:) ... as I listen to this, 
The Allman Brothers Band Featuring Jerry Garcia ‎– Live at the Cow Palace, 1973
https://youtu.be/DNAmXz8kc6I - where toward the end, one song is an old classic lullaby or similar, sung to the blues, in a great way :)

PPSAm wondering about some of your thoughts about the following, re my seeking online piano instruction: :)


To my mother and old family friends: 
Thanks to a very nice Xmas gift from my mother, - and in teaching Scottish Small Pipes' online on Skype, and enjoyably (during the Covid-19 Pandemic) - I'm seeking an online piano teacher, and begin to play piano again. 
While I think the Suzuki method might be very sensible too, (since I think Henry and Sandy, for example, played Suzuki violin together), and now Online, I'm also seeking to play (ear candy) Scottish Country Dance sheet music more fluently, and the Blues' piano book tutorial I have, and JS Bach's Inventions (which music really speaks to me, and which comes somewhat fluently). 
And if I could find a inspiring and genius Diana Henderson, MIT Professor of Shakespeare, and English Lit., who teaches piano online, that would indeed be who I'm seeking as a piano teacher ... (so, again, an online teacher of piano with the genius and inspiration, and good will smarts, of a kind of Diana Henderson, MIT Prof of Shakespeare and English Lit - https://twitter.com/DianaHe23732776 - and now with the internet, it's possible to find teachers from any city in the world, from anywhere in fact, so I'm writing you in all your different cities to inquire about your ideas about how to find a best & inspiring teacher from the Boston area, or London, or ? (I've put an email I sent recently to my mother about this reg. related ideas / Questions - and Janie and I have also talked about my appreciating a teacher with a method, since I teach SSP with 3 College of Piping tutorials, so am posting the Suzuki Piano Book 1 below too!).
Fond regards, Scott

Hi Ma, 
Just started to look around for piano lessons, and found in a Google search, about the 6th link down, this Yelp referral site for the 10 best piano teachers in the SF Bay Area
https://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Adult+Piano+Lesson&find_loc=San+Francisco%2C+CA

And at the top of their list is this -https://www.yelp.com/biz/ciara-mcallister-san-francisco-2?osq=Adult+Piano+Lesson

And while it's a great avenue into to seeing how online piano learning would work, and great outreach as a web site, I'm not all that inspired by the lead of this music school - https://www.mcallistermusicstudiosf.com
Interesting ... am thinking I'd like to find an online teacher of piano with the genius and inspiration, and good will smarts, of a kind of Diana Henderson, MIT Prof of Shakespeare and English Lit - https://twitter.com/DianaHe23732776 - and now with the internet, I could conceivably find an inspiring teacher from Boston or London even :) Wow ... 
Am I still interested in playing Scottish Country Dance sheet music more fluently, and the Blues' piano book tutorial I have, and JS Bach's Inventions - all of them? I think so to start ... so how to find and connect with an inspiring teacher for this? 
There are other links above this from the Google search (below), but only a few seem possibly inspiring.
Do you happen to know of anyone in Pittsburgh in these regards? :)
On with the search! :)
How's your day going, and how are you?
L, Scott

And while Anna, the first teacher here - https://www.hendersonacademyofmusic.com/san-francisco-piano-teachers - from Russia, might be most inspiring for me, and possibly patient too (since I'm basically a beginner) and as a woman, she seems likely most classically music-oriented. But if she could help me play JS Bach fluently ... :)

Might find someone here - https://www.notesmusicacademy.com/ourteachers

Tele-robotic surgery at WUaS - Begin with Lipomas, Vaccine Injections, and Vascular Surgery?


Hi David, Ann, and Ma,
Very nice to have spent time together over Xmas.
How are you? How is your recovery going from your lipoma surgery, David?

Your both having mentioned having had lipomas, Ma & David, leads me to wonder about developing tele-robotic surgery first for lipomas, and first even with dogs, and other house pets - https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/adipose-lipoma-tumors . Looks like there's even a syringe involved to extract cells which could be good for other things to, in creating or  training a robot with computer science.
This is the idea with a video -Begin w lipomas & vaccines in pets  #WUaSHomeSurgery re #WUaSTeleroboticSurgery @WorldUnivAndSch (@grok_ Kate Darling @medialab) https://t.co/iVeX2SxO16 & #AvatarBotElectronicMedicalRecords in #RealisticVirtualEarthForSurgery w #MachineLearning & #RealisticVirtualEarthFoRobotics?

* * Hello Scott!...and is it working for you? Just went to my calendar to create an event, but I can only do "normal" Google Meets with up to 100 participants. It seems more and more people use Google Meet these days. As a G suite user you should be able to have Hangouts with up to 250 participants.
I'm pretty active in Second Life and also in the process of setting up a couple of Discord servers. It's a really good place to host and manage bigger communities with all kinds of topics. I like the idea of having separate channels for info only, text, voice and video chats. You can give different roles and rights to members and introduce all kinds of Bots to keep your community safe and manage it. BTW, the audio quality in Discord is the best I've ever experienced in any group call.

I wish you a Happy New Year 2021,

Peter

Hello Peter! How are you?

Hello Peter! Yes, Skype works, and I haven't yet tried to record from G Meet to a WUaS Youtube channel (but yesterday's talk with Fritz in Bayern could have been good to have recorded!). Re Google's developments, and Meet, and connecting, my mother couldn't get into G Meet on Xmas with a non-gmail address, but F could yesterday with a non-gmail address, and I can't seem from within Google Photos to send pictures to people with non-gmail addresses (like my mother, for ex.) ... Glad Google Meet may be opening in other ways and re recording to Youtube (thank you for seeing its significance - ie re 2nd Youtube channel for WUaS!). ... I connected with a Stanford Biodesign conference in the autumn in Discord - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/20... (and yes Discord is a fascinating example of encoding explicitly discordant aspects of the web) - but as a consequence of the Stanford Biodesign conference, I further connected a week or 2 ago in a Stanford Biodesign outgrowth with Apple Care Kit - and a group of medical practitioners in Google Meet, including Dr. Oliver Aalami MD a Stanford  and formerly UCSF vascular surgeon ... good news for envisioning and planning for tele-robotic surgery even ... and with a blog post about this today :)

 Wishing you a happy New Year as well, Peter! Friendly Regards, Scott (Season's Greetings' letter 2021 - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/20... - Thoughts about aging reversal via genetic engineering, and emerging from the kickstart to the genetic revolution, since 1953 - due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but seemingly not a very very serious epidemic?:)

From this blog post - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/09/sinharaja-forest-reserve-to-lasers-wiki.html - "a) Discord, not surprisingly, was a bit discordant for me, b) somehow I couldn't participate any longer after about 11am Saturday morning, c) couldn't create 1 App for #AvatarBotElectronicMedicalRecords for 7.5 billion people in ~200 countries (and regarding WUaS Medical Schools, and You at WUaS, for ex.) - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University, d) would be interested in seeing the videos of presentations from Friday afternoon, and Saturday morning. Thank you for this Stanford Biodesign Buildathon.

Countries around the world can introduce universal basic income to fight against the health pandemic. 

Finland paid its citizens $2,000 per month for two years - people were happier, healthier and volunteered more.

Anthony Willoughby - Nomadic School of Business


Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org>Mon, Dec 28, 2:52 PM (1 day ago)to Anthony, FritzDear Fritz, and Anthony, 
Great to talk just now, Fritz, in Google Meet video conference (for nearly 2 hours!) in the CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School News and Q&A (https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1343265124748955653?s=20 - on Monday mornings at 10am Pacific Time, SF Bay Area) ... Thanks for joining (and glad it worked with your icloud email). 
Fritz, per our conversation in what ways might we explore creatively adding this approach to molecular biology with modern dance at MIT OCW-centric Germany World University and School in Germany, and in a single realistic virtual earth that we can all add to, and thus map - Stanford "Dancing the RNA Molecule" (1971)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTRmvnlNVw4You10:32 "(Paul Berg) Protein Synthesis: An Epic on the Cellular Level" - How to engage such creative Stanford approaches to science & dance from '71 in an #ActualVirtual #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics w #FilmTo3D App?
https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1343671092401979392?s=20

And in what ways might Germany, in German, get MIT OCW-centric free-to-students degrees - Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, MD - and the IB diploma too? 
Anthony, Fritz, in our Munich-SF Bay Area conversation earlier today, recommended the following video, which I'm very impressed with - and regarding (Friendly-informed, MIT OCW-centric) World Univ & Sch's plans for online IB schools (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme) in each of all ~200 countries' official languages, but also enjoyment and creativity, potentially: 
Thanks for this, with you Anthony! - Territory Mapping for Educators
https://youtu.be/Kb9fYkFDQtU

Glad to read here also, Anthony, that you hitchhiked around the USA in the late 1960s visiting 45 of the 50 US states ~ https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-willoughby-a2757511/ - a time I study academically even, and in an actual-virtual context even. Anthony, I know Fritz from Stanford University, and we've both had some association with Quakers as well. 
In terms of territory mapping, I'm wondering how World Univ & Sch might explore facilitating this for our WUaS students in a brand new way, in a realistic virtual earth even (Think Google Street View TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth with Google SketchUp) - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarth?src=hashtag_click . 
World Univ & Sch would also seek to develop uniquely, for the IB diploma if we can, #WUaSHomeRobotics - https://twitter.com/hashtag/WUaSHomeRobotics?src=hashtag_click - with the 3 Lego Robotics' Kits, perhaps developing this MIT OCW experimental couree - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/experimental-study-group/es-293-lego-robotics-spring-2007/ - into a courses in edX (founded by MIT and Harvard), with whom WUaS is in the process of partnering currently, and at the IB level, and in many languages. I'm glad that the WUaS Educational Services' Store became an authorized carrier of Lego Robotics - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - but which is as of yet undeveloped. 
World Univ & Sch is also seeking to develop an inspiring approach to IB education, and your 'mapping the territory' focus may be just the ticket for this.
(I attended Fettes College in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1977-78 in the 1st year 6th Form, and Fettes is now an IB school, and I also attended through a Reed College Programs, LMU in Munich during college, in 1981-82, and the University of Edinburgh in 2003-04, by way of introduction, and regarding territory mapping, and international education experience. I'm also posting a UC Berkeley Anthropology Tourism Studies' talk below which I gave on 12/18/20 as a resource regarding my research focus - which you can also find in my 2021 Season's Greetings' letter here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/12/twinpods-physaria.html).
Anthony, and Fritz, would you like to meet in a Google Meet video conference - meet.google.com/nfn-txbj-pyn - next Monday to talk further about some of this, at 10 am Pacific Time, so in the early evening in Europe / Britain? And Anthony, might the Nomadic School of Business be interested in collaborating or partnering with World Univ & Sch, and regarding potentially ONLINE IB schools in new and creative ways? As online wiki schools, planned in all 7,117 known living languages, WUaS also seeks to map territory in brand new ways, and create people to people free universal high quality education as well.
All the best, Scott

Dear Anthony, 
I just want to follow up with you, and to say thanks for your inspiring "Territory Mapping for Educators" video. It would be great to talk further about interstices.

Any chance we might explore in a single #Realistic Virtual Earth For History - https://twitter.com/hashtag/realisticvirtualearthforhistory?src=hashtag_click - bringing your hitchhiking year in the states alive in new ways at some point?
This is the beginning of this idea in some ways:

Anthony Willoughby1:40 PM (7 hours ago)to meHi Scott,
Thank you so much for your emails - It would be brilliant to catch up and learn more of your vision and great work. It looks fascinating. 
Please do let me know when it works for you over the next few days.
Thanks for your interest. Yours Anthony--

Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org>2:52 PM (6 hours ago)to AnthonyHi Anthony, 
Thanks so much for your quick response. I just watched your "In Search of Inspiration" video, and was further inspired - am appreciating the vision you project (and the images too!)
Yes, let's get together soon in video chat. How would Monday, January 4th work for you, at 10am Pacific Time, which I think might be 6pm your time (in the British Isles, if you are indeed there)? Regarding your first video with its IB focus too, and your Nomadic School, how might talking in part about creating potentially ~200 online IB schools in all nation states' / countries' official and main languages work for you - and potentially in conjunction with the joys and inspiration of traveling, but newly online (and gradually)? I've learned that IB education is as brief as 3 courses in the 2nd to last year of high school, and 3 courses in the last year of high school, or as extensive as a philosophy of education regarding K-12, and WUaS is interested in just probably the latter, as well as the IB standard / and accreditation / credential or diploma. (There's an IB Quaker school in Ramallah, for example, taught in Arabic and English, for example, but not online, and is considered one of the best schools in the Middle East, but WUaS's Quaker / Friendly inspirations are separate from this). WUaS seeks to add both CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare high school courses, as well as WUaS Home Robotics' courses, for students learning from their home kitchen tables, and significantly in an Actual-Virtual single Realistic Virtual Earth, say in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForLego - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForLego?src=hashtag_click - and for # /Robotics +. MIT OCW's CC-4 licensing - where Creative Commons' 4's attributes allow for 1) sharing, 2) adapting (eg WUaS could add MIT OCW to a database with AI), but 3) non-commercially - mean that WUaS will not seek tuition from students, but WUAS instead seeks reimbursement from departments of education (in all ~200 countries), and even at what it might cost to go to Harrow, or Phillips Academy Exeter in NH, for example. In many ways, this would mean that highest achieving students in all ~200 countries would / could get a MIT OCW-centric IB education for free from home (with traveling in a realistic virtual earth, and with physical robotics for those on STEM paths especially).
Your contacts and connections from so many different countries, and inspiring leadership and smarts, and inspiring 'territory mapping' - now potentially newly online and in creative IT ways - open many possibilities. 
If Monday 1/4/21 around 6pm your time (I think) doesn't work for you, what are some good possible times?
Sincerely yours,Scott
PSWUaS has 2 wings, as legal entities in California (and see the very open in a sense licensing at bottom): 
A) World Univ & Sch - worlduniversityandschool.org (planned in ~200 countries as major online CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric Universities, offering IB, Bachelor, Ph.D, Medicine and Law degrees, accrediting/licensing first in CA, - and in their official / main languages, and in all 7,117 living languages as WIKI schools for open teaching and learning, where Wikipedia is in 300 languages, which leaves about 6,800 languages to develop further. OUR WUaS IB diploma graduates will have further online degrees to head for, or they could drop out and 'hitchhike' around a virtual earth - think Google Street View with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth / TensorFlow AI - instead if they chose :). This is a nonprofit in CA, and a 501 c 3 nonprofit in the US.
B) the WUaS Press / WUaS Corp - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html (planned in ~200 countries and in all 7,117 known living languages with machine translation); this is a for-profit general stock company.

Open Monthly Business Meeting (in the manner of Friends) meets too on the 3rd Saturdays of the month at 9 am Pacific Time, electronically, and is hour-long.

WUaS ANNUAL Business Meeting minutes are here, for your perusal:"Indiana bat: Minutes for Sat., Dec 19, 2020 WUaS open ANNUAL Business Meeting, both wings, 1) World Univ & Sch, and 2) the WUaS Corp"

https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2020/12/sat-dec-19-2020-wuas-minutes-for-open.html

https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/12/indiana-bat.html

Here are our WUaS 15 planned revenue streams, for both wings - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2020/04/15-planned-wuas-revenue-streams-both.html - but WUaS basically has no money in the bank to speak of, whatsoever.

Hi Sri Lanka WUaS aka Rifai, Andrzej, MariuszS, Petros, WUaS family, Rohit, Nidahas, nidahasvidyalaya, WUaS Board, Peter, mazumdarp, Marisol, Shahrzad, Shahbaz, Tanya, All,


Thanks again so much for your generative email, and good ideas, Rifai. With regards to possible WUaS matriculated student testimonials (eg https://orc.mit.edu/admissions/student-testimonial), it could be good to plan for in the future - and even possibly in the WUaS Applying-to-College process from here - worlduniversityandschool.org. To date, when Shahbaz was trying to take the edX courses this autumn 2020 - and I'm so glad WUaS is in the process of partnering with edX - he could only really audit the edX courses, and not really study them 'from the inside,' ie for learning the course material for grades. And similarly with Tanya, she needs to take a "Finance" course (and some other courses to graduate with a free Bachelor's degree, I think), probably courses from edX, - and our WUaS students still can't take the edX courses 'from the inside,' that is for grades, etc. Part of the issue too is that licensing and accrediting in the state of California is evolving, I hypothesize, in the information age (eg with BPPE licensing - https://twitter.com/CaBPPE and WASC senior accreditation - https://twitter.com/wascsenior). To get ONLINE licensing and accreditation 'right,' - beyond the amazing ~2400 MIT OpenCourseWare courses, with their potential to migrate into MITx courses on the edX platform - issues like identity verification from all ~200 countries (beyond government IDs in photos), and language proficiency, (possibly some kind of required entrance exam as starting point), and course testing probably, for example, all have to be addressed - and edX (founded by MIT & Harvard in Cambridge - and a platform for about 150 universities and companies too) isn't 'there' yet either, ie meeting the standards of CA's BPPE and WASC Senior, for ex. So, as you may have read also in the open WUaS ANNUAL MEETING Minutes - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/12/indiana-bat.html (see Minute 0 ... ) - WUaS needs (150 matriculating students and) $101,000 US dollars, I think, to finalize partnering with edX and inter-operate our developing WUaS platform thanks to a new installation of WUaS Wikibase /Wikidata in opencura, and for our 3rd matriculating undergraduate class - eg see these from the new WUaS Opencura Wikibase - 
People -

individual - https://worlduniversityandschooldatabase.wiki.opencura.com/wiki/Item:Q4


course - https://worlduniversityandschooldatabase.wiki.opencura.com/wiki/Item:Q1


accessible from -

https://worlduniversityandschooldatabase.wiki.opencura.com/wiki/Main_Page


- with edX's Dashboard (for grades and sign ins), potentially beginning for WUaS on May 1, 2021. It's taking a while to develop this partnership with edX too, even as edX iterating on courses they have available, - and how, for example, again WUaS can get our WUaS students' sign-ins and grades from (WUaS students') edX courses, etc.
Thanks so much to Houcemeddine (above) in Tunisia for installing WUaS Wikibase !  Houcemeddine, can we migrate WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki to WUaS OpenCura WikiBase together sometime, please, and regarding what follows ... ?
In the meantime, our WUaS other wing (to complement the free-to-students' accrediting degrees' wing) is open for free people-to-people open teaching and learning - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects (but this Wiki may also be in transition, and is something WUaS may seek to move to WUaS Opencura too) - but only in English so far, and not yet interoperable with a WUaS Wikibase installation for this WUaS Miraheze wiki (like the new WUaS Wikibase in Opencura). And WUaS hasn't really developed Wiki communities yet - like in Wikipedia's nearly 300 languages - in English. It will help for this when WUaS can begin to hire Wiki developers (like Wikipedia has), and thus also develop parallel volunteer communities of Wiki editors, first in ~300 languages, and then in all 7,117 known living languages, so in about 6,800 more languages! 
So, WUaS team, and Sri Lanka WUaS, let's wait to see what Tanya, for example, does with the edX courses at WUaS as our WUaS-edX partnership develops, and WUaS can pay edX, - and the edX courses become take-able for credit (and re even licensing and accreditation), not just audit-able, for her free-to-student's Bachelor's degree.
And thanks so much to Imad Zalmat in Morocco for your interest in a WUaS MIT OCW-centric PhD beginning in 2021 as well - CA's BPPE said in Feb 2019 that they can license PhD degrees! 
And the further development of the WUaS platform - worlduniversityandschool.org - now with WUaS Wikibase and take-able edX courses will open the way for student learning, and success (and testimonials!:)
Next open WUaS News and Q&A for conversation meet tomorrow, Monday, at 10 am Pacific Time in Google Meet here - meet.google.com/nha-qeuf-nxn (gmail address needed)!

Thanks for your email, and Season's Greetings to you all - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/12/twinpods-physaria.html. I'd like to introduce you all to Tanya, the first matriculated student at WUaS, (and Shahbaz you may know already, who is the second matriculated student, but who withdrew / dropped out, and both pre-licensing and accreditation, which WUaS is still planning for, first in California)..As you may have read in the WUaS Annual Meeting Minutes - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/12/indiana-bat.html - for the WUaS Corporation, Larry Viehland, the Chair of the WUaS Board and the CFO (acting of the WUaS Press / Corp), sent in a check for $200 to WUaS, which I received in Canyon 94516 on 12/24/20, ... and for which he'll get 20 further shares in the WUaS Corporation, planning to go public with an IPO, and which I'll note in the spreadsheet. 
Thanks to Tanya in 2019, and Rifai in 2020, for letting me know about the Stanford 'Mine Pi' cryptocurrency - minepi.com/sgkmac - sgkmac (and you can use this reference code too, am appreciative of the Stanford name re credibility) - which I'm mining daily, and thus earning free cryptocurrency (which will be exchangeable in the future - potentially in all ~200 countries), and which WUaS is seeking to disseminate to all 7.8 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata Q-item # in order to alleviate poverty via Universal Basic Income experiments. If possible the WUaS Corporation will first list on the emerging Silicon Valley LONG TERM stock exchange (which has passed one SEC hurdle a year ago), and for which this single cryptocurrency, the Stanford 'Mine Pi' - planned for most of ~200 countries - may be the basis!

Dear friends,

 

Happy New Year 2021! And Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!

What are you up to over these upcoming holidays? Will you celebrate with family in video conferencing? The Brown kin (the maiden name of my mother) will be getting together tomorrow in Skype video ;) and some Cuttyhunk family and friends on Xmas Day in Google Meet!

I hope this finds you well!

Here's the Earlham College (the college my mother went to her first year) aging reversal article, in the Harvard Medical School in Ophthalmology!:

“Earlham grads named co-authors on groundbreaking study that reversed the clock on aging”

And All, is this article suggesting promising research for getting genetic material to MUSCLES????? -

NeuBase Therapeutics Announces Positive Preclinical In Vivo Data for PATrOL™-enabled Anti-gene for the Treatment of Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/12/16/2146014/0/en/NeuBase-Therapeutics-Announces-Positive-Preclinical-In-Vivo-Data-for-PATrOL-enabled-Anti-gene-for-the-Treatment-of-Myotonic-Dystrophy-Type-1.html

More related Tweets and links here follow!

Genetic aging reversal by adding genes back into aging cells is indeed a novel re-conceptualizing and not easy to get my mind around in the details.

And what are your thoughts about AGING REVERSAL via genetic engineering - re Harvard / MIT Prof of Genetics' George Church's thinking https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk (1 minute) (and see the 'longevity label in blog - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/longevity).

And what about getting genetic information via genetic engineering to bones next, re aging reversal questions?

Glad to have given this UC Berkeley Anthropology Tourism Studies' talk on Friday, 12/18/2020:

“(S. MacLeod) Creating a Realistic Virtual Earth for Tourism and Tourism Studies with Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springs: A Case Study”

Glad too the ANNUAL Meeting for WUaS – World University and School - (re WUaS Monthly Business Meeting in the manner of Friends) went well, and its Minutes are sent - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2020/12/sat-dec-19-2020-wuas-minutes-for-open.html

Another fascinating remarkable development:

And FREE MONEY?: you can begin to get free money daily with Stanford ‘Mine Pi’ crypto-currency; use this code: sgkmac

The mine-able Stanford 'Mine Pi' crypto-currency - minepi.com/sgkmac (and, on your smartphone, please use sgkmac as a referral code) - could become the basis for single crypto-currency in all ~200 countries.

WORLD UNIV & SCH is seeking to facilitate high quality free universal education (wiki too) to all 7.8 billion people on the planet, and in all ~200 countries, and in 7,117 known living languages, as well as to alleviate poverty among all 7.8 billion people, potentially by distributing a single crypto-currency backed by most of ~200 countries’ central banks as Universal Basic Income experiments.

And glad also to have almost finished recording in digital form my first musical album - 'Honey in the Bag' Scottish Small Pipes' bagpiping album -

https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/

http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm  :)

More about my Scottish Small Pipes' album here, and with Yo Yo Ma and Steve Martin (on banjo) - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/10/turquoise-parrot-neophema-pulchella.html?m=0 - inspirations!

And 5TH Book is coming any day now (it's a birthing process:) -

"Light, Float, Sit, Watsu ~ Virtually: Bodymind Electricity Sings to Me at Harbin Hot Springs & Other Traveling Poems" - emerging soon, but besides a few blog entries, there aren't any web pages for this yet, but will emerge here ~ https://www.amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity ~ and in the Poetry Press at World University and School ~ http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html ~ a new publishing house! :)

If aging reversal pans out, it's a whole new world! Time grows longer, much longer! Much love for longer? To be seen!

Friendly inquiry: Is the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic of the past year in part a worldwide fire drill, with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 virus) being tested now one of many viruses giving rise to the ‘common cold?’ Were the events in Wuhan, China, and in Lombardy and Veneto, Italy, products of laboratories that got this pandemic happening in the internet news’ media? Further thoughts in blog and re 5 hypothetical news’ items are here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/04/himalyan-monal-how-are-harbin-hot.html. If so, this might be very good news regarding the genetic engineering revolution underway, and for preparedness in the event of an emergency and in many other ways.

         Warm greetings from the San Francisco Bay Area.

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year!

Warmest regards, Scott

PS

It’s been another generative year for ideas in terms of daily blog posts - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com - as well.

 

Happy New Year and best wishes to all of you and your loved ones in this holiday season!

Hi Patti, Barbara, Taylor, Bruce, David, Heather, Janie, Alex, Ed, Linda, Sioux, Scott, David, Rob, RSCDS teachers, All, 
Am glad, as I've emailed before, that my new Scottish Small Pipes' album, 'Honey in the Bag' is emerging - http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm - but as I upload the 38 planned tracks, I'm also finding a need for photos as part of the process - https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/ - and for each track. This is adding a new unexpected element and taking time too!
I'm attaching a new pic from today from my new (possibly temporary 'safe house') in the SF Bay Area, barefoot (because my Birkenstock slipped off as I was moving in 3 seconds to get in the 'Photo Booth' pic on MacBook Air laptop) with the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. 

Some remarkable, recent aging reversal genetic engineering research out of Harvard and MIT:
And if we do live another 1000 years or much longer even???, and are communicating then, regarding these 2 new Harvard / MIT Prof. of Genetics' George Church articles - https://hms.harvard.edu/news/custom-ordered-cells (https://twitter.com/geochurch/status/1335318813320114178?s=20) - and - https://hms.harvard.edu/news/vision-revision (https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1335397228475768832?s=20 ) ... I will look back through such communications like emails and journals or logs, for some refreshers of memory:) 
In George Church's 1 minute-long 60 Minutes' video on 60 Minutes: "How soon could humans reverse the aging process with genetic engineering?" (1 minute)
https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk
- he does discuss reversing memory genes I think ... :)
Still seeking to upload the pic on the right of the Bandcamp page - from the Robbie Burns' Night in the San Jose Scottish Country Dance to my newly updated piping website - http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm - but curiously can't seem to change the permissions in FileZilla FTP!
Who here is making forays into 'riffing' with Bandcamp (which seems much better designed than SoundCould or ReverbNation, for ex.)? It's also free for musicians to upload to, and then share one's music for anywhere from $1 per track and up. And the conversation with Bandcamp is indeed turning this emerging Scottish Small Pipes' "Honey in the Bag" album into a further creative project :)
Per this attached photo, I may explore playing to the GG Bridge in kilt with good mic-ing in subsequent Honey in the Bag recordings :)
Musical cheers, Scott- http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm -

Hi Appreciators of Scottish music, All! 

Am on a learning curve with bandcamp ... https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/ ... all of sudden photos become relevant, and none really work so far in my thinking, yet there's also an experimental possibility here too ... and on with experimenting ... may try to get some good photos with long-ish hair, before deciding whether to continue to let it grow.

This Friday, 12/4, if anyone bought any of my new Scottish small piping tracks from Bandcamp, I'd make all the money (since bandcamp waives its ~15% cut), and it's a good goal with which to keep uploading tunes (I'm aiming to add 38 tunes in total - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/02/western-honey-bee-re-my-upcoming-honey.html - in this my first Scottish Small Pipes' album, called "Honey in the Bag"). Also, in uploading my 3rd tune yesterday, I could select the option for a 35% discount to people who buy all 3 tracks (or more) currently listed. So I think the $3.00 dollars for all three tracks would become about $2.00, since I'm asking $1.00 per track. Am emailing friends about this too :) Not quite the Scot Lauren MacColl;s bandcamp website - https://laurenmaccoll.bandcamp.com/ - but am learning from this esp.
Has anyone else explored - https://scottmacleodhoneyinthebagscottishsmallpipesbagpiping.bandcamp.com/ - 
Update of website ahead - http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm 
Thoughts, suggestions, questions, ideas?
