Hi Ma,


But maybe NOT to get a haircut ... :)

... I think long hair, and a tie die coronavirus bandana, set me apart from most of the University presidents out there (and WUaS is planning major online Universities in all 200 countries and in all 7,139 known living languages!) ... is somehow distinctive in these regards, and allows me also to connect with folks who are different (diversity-wise) - from some concept of norms.

Re ...
"Haircut I think makes sense too although the previous barber who's cuts I liked was closed down by the coronavirus pandemic - and am not sure where to get a haircut. While I like my hair long in this quarantine time, and think it's distinctive and symbolizes freedom and even radicalness, and while I may have more gray than before, I think I'll connect more and better socially on Cuttyhunk for example with a 'medium trim'. I also think shorter hair will help me reach out further and better with MIT OCW-centric wiki WUaS (and re George Church for ex). Style it in interesting ways - re French philosopher Bruno Latour? ..."


Will sit in my own Quaker Meeting about this :)

Thoughts? Questions? 

Love, Scott

nice to talk with you last night. . . . Were you exhausted from playing whiffle 'pickle ball' doubles ('do-blues':) ? 

'Use it or lose it' (sign on Reed psychology professor's door ... From animal studies, and biologically in the bodymind, I'd think too) ... 

Seems like exercise movement can be good for all ... but what about declining gene function per Harvard/MIT Prof of Genetics' George Church as we age 
https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk - and what to do about it (at 120 yo in particular):)? How to add genetic function back in as a drug - a vaccine, nasal spray, capsule or ? 

Haven't yet found again his genetic age reversal into a 30 year year old body as a 125 yo video, but am looking. 




Ma, Sandy,

This 95 year old gymnast is strong and fit and hasn't seemed to lose bone-density appearance wise  (which I've noticed some older people do from disuse) - 
https://twitter.com/PawlowskiMario/status/1380984927538323459?s=19 ... She's also disciplined - or focused might be a better word - to keep doing gymnastics at 95.

Yoga offers related kinds of a WIDE RANGE of doable beneficial movements ...

I searched on 'focus' or 'concentration' (a key idea or word in Yoga) ...

Here in these 'Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations' ~ 

Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations


... And found focus in a good ... releasing way ... And may also do some standing poses this morning, as well as arm related movements ...

Are you both finding good movement in your lives (building, carpentry, sculpture ... exercise ... Pickle ball even for arms?) ... Esp if we live beyond 122 years of age (see below)? :) 

Seeking to bring a new focus on focusing here, and regarding not only doing yoga asana 

... But also in making

music :)

Ma, 

Really nice to talk to you. 

Am curious how to explore aging reversal further & re ... https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk  ... and below. 

And also how best to reach out to ... .. - a video conference possibly? Ed? Wait for her to open the way further somehow? Invite her to Cuttyhunk? 

Haircut I think makes sense too although previous barber whose cuts I liked was closed down by the coronavirus pandemic - and am not sure where to get haircut. While I like my hair long in this quarantine time, and think it's distinctive and symbolizes a freedom and even radicalness, and while I may have more gray than before, I think I'll connect more and better socially on Cuttyhunk for example with a 'medium trim'. I also think shorter hair will help me reach out further and better with MIT OCW-centric wiki WUaS (and re George Church for ex). Style it in interesting ways - re French philosopher Bruno Latour?

Time to talk with people more on the phone than email too, I think. 

Seeking the aging reversal drug therapy vaccine which works (and is FDA approved without negative side effects too). 

Love, Scott

Ma,

How was your day today? 

There's a MIT OCW TALK on Wednesday if you might be interested - 

We are turning 20! Join us for an online panel presentation about the origins of OCW, and what's in store for us in the future.  March 3 at 10am EST on Zoom and our YouTube channel.  Come with questions!   #OEWeek https://t.co/4Wd449yfML


And, WILDLY, it ...

seems preposterous that an aging reversal genetic engineering drug therapy - say a cream - could reverse age back to newborn size but check out this puppy - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/02/xoloitzcuintle-mexican-hairless-dog.html?m=0 - in today's Minutes ...  


So ... Hypothetically ... 
Be careful how you apply these drugs !!! Size- & age-wise esp ... Cells programmed in REVERSE :)


And relatedly ...

In the #GeneticEngineeringRevolution? #WUaSAgingReversal ~ "#Cosmetology is one of the most popular vocational tracks in Mass. But is it too late for a makeover of Madison Park’s beauty program?

Dear Ma, Ed, Pin/Sid, Hank, Susan, Tym, All, 

Thank you, Ma, for talking last night - and for your concerns about my living in Canyon 94516! Thanks too for suggesting talking with Ed. 

Ed, from your perspective as a Kaiser Permanente MD, how might I best approach filling the federal US Post Office form (and also regarding MIT-OCW-centric World University and School's address) per what I emailed yesterday (and below). By April 30, 2021, I'd like to hand in the
"Living in a 'SAFE HOUSE' - re Canyon 94516, & "UU Church of Kensington Berkeley" thread too"
 form which I attached to my email to all of you yesterday - or a different USPO form to retain the WUaS PO Box there in Canyon 94516. Ed, your mentioning on our Wildcat Canyon hike a few weeks ago the word "Yo" backwards, and twice, when you were hiking ahead of me, is one questions here, and regarding your saying then that "negotiations are underway" (am not clear what exactly this referred to). Also I suspect that property ownership deed may be in big disarray from a legal perspective (and regarding the idea of 'individuals,' and in the law of the state of California) since 'cultural' ownership questions in Canyon are probably very entangled.

Thank you so much, All, for your thinking in this matter! 

Fondly, Scott



Living in a 'SAFE HOUSE' - re Canyon 94516, & "UU Church of Kensington Berkeley" thread too

Dear Ma, Pin, Larry, Ed, Hank, Susan, Tym, All, 

I've photographed and attached to this email the 
"USPO 
No-Fee Post Office Box
Renewal Notice / Annual Verification" 
form. 

I'm thinking about writing:

On the form ... 
Name: 
Professor / Pres. Scott Gordon K MacLeod - - - Business Organization Name: World Univ & Sch (WUaS) 

My physical address is: 
670 (formerly 86) Ridgecrest Rd, Canyon CA 94156 Tel. 415 480 4577
email address: sgkmacleod@gmail.com 


... and under this 'physical address' line on the front of the form ... 
"but I'm living in a 'SAFE HOUSE,' having called the local Moraga Police in September 2020 to report at least 3 illegal break ins, ... "

... and on the back side of the form ... 
" ... entries, and numerous thefts over the past 12 years, and where a Sheriff D Lynch came to my door at 670A Ridgecrest, to take a report after the second call I made to the Moraga police. The last illegal break in, when I was asleep, with evidence left on the floor, could have potentially involved force (rape? or possibly a gun). The SAFE HOUSE address I'm living in is 1749 Arlington Blvd, El Cerrito, CA 94530."


While it would probably be easy to pay the USPO Fee, and keep this USPO post office box number for myself and WUaS ... 

I see this form as a possible legal document opportunity to 'claim this 670 property' even - and in a legal USPO (historical) document - and potentially to further document in a different way with the USPO federal agency possible crimes by mentally ill former landlord t.w. ... and perhaps provide further grounds even for federal and state authorities to protect potential victims and innocents from him (NEEDS further evidence, or evidence I'm not in possession of) in the future. 

In doing so, I could even eventually find myself in possession of this 670 Ridgecrest property - in a cleaned up Canyon, and have made Canyon safer too. What do you think?

Who at the USPO would read this form? Would the USPO 'police,' - and could even the head of USPO read this form? What would USPO lawyers do with this? In what context regarding 'cleaning up' Canyon - and protecting minors even - would this 'No-Fee Post Office Box" form that I fill out be read?  (Having whistle-blown, too, quite loudly about the SF Quaker Meeting in 2017 in some of these regards (and UC Berkeley too), I don't know the legal narratives going on in the background of Canyon, whatsoever - and re a hypothetical federal clean up relating to the illegal international s.. industry for example).

But perhaps the USPO will just file this form away, not reading the back of it. 


But, in seeking to do fill out this form with integrity, and ethically (and re whistle-blowing further, and in a federal agency, with an Post Office in Canyon 94516) - and perhaps also possibly moving a key 'international illegal s.. industry perpetrator, offender and criminal' (t.w., I hypothesize) away from Canyon - I'm wondering about the implications of some of the above, which is why I'm writing to you re possible dialogue even.

I could just fill out this form with a version of the above, and not come into conversation with you, but think it could be a good idea to learn what you think? 

Thoughts, questions, ideas, suggestions? 

It could be great to turn 670A Ridgecrest Road, Canyon, CA 94516 into a "SAFE HOUSE" itself - teaching Yoga there too (regarding my daily Yoga practice), and regarding the whole "Thank you, thank you, thank you - re not Canyon!" thread too - if Canyon 94516 could be cleaned up successfully. 

Sincerely, Scott

PS
Please see, too, the whole "Thank you, thank you, thank you - re not Canyon!" thread ... :)

"UU Church of Kensington Berkeley" email thread


Hi Ma, Pin, Larry, Ed, Tym, 

Following up on this walking to the UU Church of Kensington Berkeley email thread, and your call back to me, Pin, when I called you from there the other day:

although I'm not drawn to become a UU Minister, like I think my Dad had thought of doing - and my parents met and married in the UU Church of Cincinnati interestingly - I am curious here to explore teaching Yoga again a bit around this time of 10:30 am PT of an experimental Stammtisch (on April 10, 2021 - community conversation 'tribe' table, in German, online) in the future. My vision for teaching Yoga - although I've dropped out off of Angela Farmer and Victor Van Kooten's emailings (am a drop out here in a 1960's sense too and potentially for 'the good' - and will update this about this at some point - http://www.scottmacleod.com/yoganotations.html) - is inspired by their explorations in part, but am seeking a bit more of a good ethical perspective. And if I were to teach Yoga in what's now called 'the shop' at 670 Ridgecrest Road, Canyon 94516 - but perhaps virtually especially, at this time on Saturdays, like I've taught Yoga before in Canyon around this time in 670A Ridgecrest Road, I think virtual teaching from the shop would facilitate great approaches to teaching Yoga in new ways.

How best to think through - Yoga-wise too (re ethics and also 'strong energies' perhaps) - the filling out of the US Post Office post office box form? I (and World Univ & Sch) just got this annual form (and the USPO probably has 12 or 13 of these forms, since 2008 or so) in the mail yesterday, when I went over to Canyon. More about this soon, and I'd welcome your thinking.

Sincerely, Scott

Dear Ma, Pin, Larry, Ed, Tym,


Invitation to Cuttyhunk ... I'm planning to be there in July, and would like to invite you to visit if you're in the Boston area. Come over for a day or a couple of nights to visit. 

1) USPO form for Canyon, by April 30th

2) WUaS tax form with Canyon PO Box, or ? by April 15th?

3) invite ... to video conference, & to Cuttyhunk? How?

4) am still living in a 'safe house' - in calling the Moraga police last summer twice while living in Canyon. Is Canyon becoming safe from criminal activity - and what's the role of law enforcement here? And how can we know? 

Have been a whistle blower in recent years re SF Quaker Meeting, Stanford, UC Berkeley /Law, and Canyon, - and in other ways ... Hence safe house too ... Is change of these cultures in the direction of more and better ethics happening - thanks to what's emerging from the coronavirus pandemic and even legal thinking/writing with law enforcement with internet media with institutions like medicine - and writing / emailing? C'est possible! :)

Fondly, Scott
(If different address than Canyon PO, which address to use for the WUaS Corporation in CA tax form? )
