Immortality Update 4 : Old Age and S&M
Andre Willers
23 Dec 2013
Synopsis :
Old Age is a form of self-inflicted Sado-Masochism . To attain
or survive immortality , you need to get rid of S&M .
Discussion :
1.Masochism and Sadism aren’t opposites , but arises from completely
unrelated neurological causes . Which is why an individual can have both at the
same time .
Learned Helplessness is not the same as depression , but a
neurological state that can easily be induced from cockroaches onwards . See
Sapolsky .
Its opposite would then be Confidence .
3. Sadism is closely related to Mania .
“Mania is a state of abnormally elevated or irritable mood,
arousal, and/or energy levels. In a sense, it is the opposite of depression.”
The pleasure is in the activation of all the
pleasure/dominance neural pathways .
Undirected mania can easily degrade into sexual or power sadism
.
Directed mania is common : ie “driven” individuals . Overriding
goals .
4. Meme-Grid :
Set the Opposite Memes in a grid .
Sum diagonally for various values of the grid . (Remember ,
the x-y axes are opposites)
The diagonal sum boundaries are 2 . The other values are 1 .
Consider the extremes .
The maximum is as below :
Sum = 2 for Internal S&M : If Confidence=1/Mania=1 and
Learned-Helplessness=1 /Depression =1
Your typical manic-depressive
Confidence
Learned-Helplessness
Mania 1 0
Depression 0 1
xxxxxxxxxx
The other Sum=2 is :
If Depression=1 and Learned-Helplessness=1 .
A horrible place to be .
Confidence Learned-Helplessness
Mania 0 1
Depression 1 0
5. What does this mean ?
If you want to survive Immortality , or even attain it , the
meme-grid should be like this :
The Diagonal Sum=1 is
: If Mania=1 and Learned-Helplessness=1 .
Surprise ! Surprise !
Some Learned-Helplessness is essential to survival .
I always wondered why it had not been selected out .
Confidence
Learned-Helplessness
Mania 1 1
Depression 0 0
xxxxxxxxxxx
Catatonia (Death) :
the meme-grid should be like this :
The Diagonal Sum=1 is
: If Depression=1 and Learned-Helplessness=1 .
Confidence
Learned-Helplessness
Mania 0 0
Depression 1 1
Xxxxxxx
6. What to do ?
6.1 Manic-Confidence :
Numerous drugs and psychological techniques are known .
6.2 Manic-LearnedHelplessness .
The techniques for inducing Mania are well known .
Combine the two under discipline .
Been done , of course .
Kung-Fu , Karate , etc .
But we have to it better down to neurological , cellular and
mitochondrial level , while maintaining Manic Confidence .
7. That is to prevent you from beating yourself up in
S&M fashion at intra-cellular level .
8.It is then a matter of communication between centers .
NAD molcules prevents mitochondrial learned-helplessness
from becoming too bad , while restoring the cellular command structures (ie
confidence ) .
9. Psychological Effects :
In time-honoured psychoanalytical fashion , reading and
understanding the above Meme-grids changes Learned-Helplessness responses .
The subjective effect is like a weight being lifted , a
sense of freedom . Confidence is boosted and the whole feedback system gets
into gear (something not discussed above) .
10 . PTSD : a nice little bonus .
PTSD is a typical Self-S&M system . Just reading and
understanding the Meme-grids will make the nightmares shrink .
Which is why I am writing this .
Works for me . Hopefully for you , too .
Manically , yet depressingly ,
Yours

Appendix A
Finding a way to stop
the ageing process has been an elusive, age-old dream. Now scientists from
Australia and the US believe they have not only found a way to press pause –
but to rewind the ageing process as well.
While the study was
conducted using mice, molecular biologist David Sinclair from the University of
New South Wales and Harvard University said the findings were significant and
could have implications for the treatment of age-related diseases such as
cancer and type 2 diabetes.
The research team
discovered a key mechanism that keeps the body's cells communicating. In youth,
communication inside individual cells – between the cell's "battery"
known as the mitochondrion and the nucleus – is fast and frequent. But over time,
this slows and ageing accelerates.
"The ageing process
we discovered is like a married couple – when they are young, they communicate
well. But over time, living in close quarters for many years, communication
breaks down," Professor Sinclair said. "And just like a couple,
restoring communication solved the problem."

To improve communication
inside cells, researchers gave mice injections containing the naturally
occurring compound NMN, which raises the levels of a molecule called NAD. This
molecule repairs the cells' communication network.
Previously the only way
to slow the dropoff in NAD levels in old age was to restrict calories and
exercise intensively.
In the study, the Sydney
researchers used mice that are considered equivalent to a 60-year-old human
and older mice, equating to a 90-year-old human. A control group of mice
were fed a calorie-restricted diet.
The results, outlined in
the scientific journal Cell on
Friday, were better for the younger mice, which were able to rewind the ageing
process within a week. The treatment effectively transformed a 60-year-old into
a 20-year-old on some measures, including the degree of muscle wastage, insulin
resistance and inflammation.
"If the compound is
administered early enough in the ageing process, in just a week, the muscles of
the older mice were indistinguishable from the younger animals," said
co-author Nigel Turner from UNSW's pharmacology department.
The older mice showed
some improvement, but it was not as dramatic.
"It may be in the
future that your age in years isn't going to matter as much as your biological
age," Professor Sinclair said.
"What we've shown
here is that you can turn back your biological age, or at least we think we
have found a way to do that."
He said seeing results
so quickly came as "a complete shock".
Professor Sinclair said
he hoped to start human trials next year.

Phene Systems.
Andre Willers
5 Nov 2009
Synopsis :
Cellular-wall control systems(phenes) of epigenetic and virus systems are
becoming known and described .
Discussion :
See NewScientist 8 Aug 2009 p 41 "Kills all known germs" by B Holmes
.
Relevant research by Philip Thorpe at University of Texas Southwestern Medical
Center in Dallas .
See also http://andreswhy.blogspot.com "Coffee Foam" 2 Aug 2009 and
later .
The argument is simple : self-replicating structures started on the walls of bubbles
(probably clay : Gecko life) . These developed into the present day epigenetic
control structures of processes inside the bubbles (ie cells) .
Viruses are messengers/controls both for intra-cellular and extra-cellular use
.
Which is why they are usually wrapped in variants of the cell-wall .
Phosphatidylserine :
From the NewScientist article , this is a molecule mostly found sticking out of
the inner lining of the cell-wall . Virus budding entails that this molecule is
then found in particular patterns sticking out of the outside the outer
cell-wall .
We expect such a mechanism if the cell-wall harbours the meta-controls (ie
epigenetics) of the cell and some multicellular activity (ie virus messenger
generation).
Humans have created antibodies that inactivate or target-for-destruction the
bits of the Phosphatidylserine molecule sticking out of the cell-wall .
This will break the feedback-cycle of a large range of harmful viruses
(apparently including HIV , Flu's , some cancers) .
Bavituximab ( a name only a Pharma could love) does exactly this . Expect to
see a lot of it .
The question is :
Why are these antibodies not part of the body's normal immune system ?
Answer:
The virus system is also used for information carrying .
Suppressing the virus system completely will destroy a multicellular organism ,
and make it revert to a collection of individual cells , even down to elemental
chemicals if done properly . (Cf Ebola , SuperEbola , etc)
This can be bypassed by shining intense , quantum-entangled infra-red light
through the mess (see previous posts) .
The normal system has to play a delicate balancing act between destruction from
bad viruses and good,communication viruses .
If the baddies get too big an influence , intervention might be required . This
is the duty of the epigenetic system . Why is it falling down on the job ?
The Dendritic Immune sytem
This is the connection between the synapse-type learning systems and the
phene-system in the cell walls .
The dendritic immune system's effectiveness is magnified by at least 3 orders
of magnitude by a continuous sharp pressure-differential . The search space is
drastically reduced by stochastic resonance . (The proof is either immediately
obvious or very long).
Hence modern music and it's prevalence .
Your chances of survival is about 10^3 better if you listen to some semi-random
rock.
Hence iPod and others . This is a real effect .
But we can do better than that by internal Click programming .
You know : Clicking the tongue , beak , teeth , exoskelet .
There is no animal with synapses or an immune system that makes no clicks at
some stage .
This is actually quite amazing .
Plants:
We would then expect plants to be noisy . And they are , on very low
frequencies . This is how desert elephants survive : they hear the bulbous
plants growing by the low-frequency pulses sensed through their feet . A patch
of bulbs would have a signature low-frequency pulse observable from a long way
off . (The bulbs would evolve-learn to spurt growth at the same time . This
would lessen the chance of detection and eating by close-by herbivores not as
smart as elephants)
Click-talking plants .
Better than just talking to them . But try some castanets . Tap-dancing will
work too , but the neighbours will think you're really crazy tap-dancing to the
plants . Tojours .
Grinding your teeth .
A common complaint , usually explained away as stress . Actually , your teeth
are trying to click together . A part of the body's housekeeping routine .
Programming the gums and intestinal tract .
Just for the hell of it , click your teeth together 5 times together with 5
double-tongue clicks interspersed as you feel . Count them . You will feel an
immediate stress-relief feeling . Blood pressure will drop . Be careful if
medication to lower blood pressure is taken .
I just thought of the above , and tried it .
The teeth (molars mostly) must click against each other . You will notice there
is a damage-control protocol hardwired in . The teeth will click , but not hard
enough to cause damage . This already tells us that this is an old system .
The natural tendency will be for a double-teeth click , followed by a double
tongue-click with the mouth open . The process then repeats , varying the teeth
, tongue and mouth open/closed .
Be careful of hypotension of the cardiovascular system . The stress relief is
very pronounced . Especially around the neck and upper shoulder muscles .
Teeth-grinding should cease .
But why ?
I did not expect this . But the effect is so pronounced that I cannot ignore it
.
The neck and shoulder muscles do not relax through an effort of will or
exercise . They just relax . (Sort of melt) .
Maybe a double bite-bite on empty air signals the end of an aggressive episode
, and for expensive fight-or-flight mechanisms to stand down .
This would make this fairly deep-wired , certainly deeper than psychological
stress .
Phene effects .
The stand-down is an immediate stand-down , regardless of the number previous
stress-generating events . This must be true , since this is the epigenetic
programming system . There is no other memory system .
Phene programming of immune-systems , bone-growth , digestion , neural growth
etc ,are immediately affected . Genes are switched from crisis to maintenance .
Using the carbohydrate-energy mechanism is a short-term crisis mechanism .
Standing down the mechanism should ameliorate conditions like Diabetes II .
Or getting fat .
Want to get thin ?
The algorithm :
Double-teeth click , followed by a double tongue-click with the mouth open .
The process then repeats , varying the teeth , tongue and mouth open/closed .
Repeat at least ten times a month .
That’s it .
Can it be this simple?
Yes .
Why has nobody thought of it before ?
As far as I am aware , nobody in our recorded history has thought that the
click of teeth together can have physiological effects . Prehistoric societies
were probably aware of the effect .
Yet it does , as you can find out for yourself .
The same for the simplicity . Simple causes has wide effects , because they are
so basic . You must look at the whole argument .
In any case , there is hardly any risk .
I am doing it . Tojours!
Hasta la vista !
Coming or going .
Andre .
