“As he was coming toward me, I said back off,” she told LA-based KCAL-TV.
Using her 26 years of martial arts training, 67-year-old Lorenza Marrujo took down an intruder who attacked her 81-year-old friend and neighbor. https://t.co/sBbS5JkueK — WDBJ7 (@WDBJ7) October 1, 2020
The man just took a quick look at her and exited the apartment, but shortly after, Lorenza heard screams from another apartment. The criminal had set his sights on the home of her 81-year-old friend and neighbor Elizabeth McCray.
He shook her until she dropped to the ground, but Lorenza refused to let him hurt her friend further and called the cops before going in to help Elizabeth.
And as it turned out, Lorenza was a black belt martial artist with 26 years of practice behind her back.
Lorenza Marrujo might be small — standing less than 5 feet tall — but on Monday night, the 67-year-old proved she can pack a punch when she took down an intruder who broke into her Fontana apartment building https://t.co/VoGNZWy5x5 — CBS Los Angeles (@CBSLA) September 30, 2020
Lorenza’s friend warned her to act with caution.
She said:
“He’s gonna kill us!”
Lorenza replied saying:
“Not tonight.”
Lorenza said:
“I squeezed myself between her (Elizabeth) and him…then I jumped on him and I was punching him and I had the cane against his throat. “At the same time his arm came up and I twisted it around, he was shouting ‘you’re hurting me, you’re hurting me.’ and I said ‘I don’t care what happens to you, you have no right to hurt an elderly person.‘”
Thankfully, Lorenza managed to pin the man to the ground until the cops arrived.
Elizabeth was brought to the hospital and was able to go home the next day. The criminal was taken by the police.
Authorities advised people not to imitate what Lorenza did with the intruder, but God knows what would have happened to Elizabeth if her dear friend hadn’t had stepped in to help her.

iheartintelligence--2020-10-28--Giant asteroid gaining incredible speed on its way towards Earth

A massive asteroid named Apophis ( the God of Chaos in ancient Egypt ) is gaining incredible speed as it heads towards our planet – and experts warn it could hit us in 48 years .
According to University of Hawaii Astronomers , the asteroid is gaining immense speed due to non-uniform radiation , which serves it as a little thruster .
Before the experts made this recent discovery , a clash was said to be out of the question , but the new data points to a small chance of Apophis crashing into Earth on April 12 , 2068 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ catastrophe .
The asteroid is more than 1000 feet in width and the crash would be equal to 880 million tons of TNT exploding at the same time .
The giant rock was spotted back in 2004 by astronomers at Arizona ’ s Kitt Peak National Observatory .
Ever since , the team has been tracking Apophis as it orbits the sun , which it fully circles in less than one year .
The experts first saw the asteroid with the Subaru telescope earlier in 2020 and concluded it had gained speed following @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yarkovsky effect .
When the sun heats Apophis , it re-radiates the energy off itself in the form of heat , which , in turn , serves as a thruster .
According to the astronomers , prior to this effect , it was impossible for the asteroid to hit earth but that is sadly no longer the case .
The giant rock has also been awarded the title of NASA ’ s 3rd-highest threat on the Sentry Risk Table , as per Gizmodo .
According to the table , there is a 1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earth in 48 years , but Tholen said that the odds are actually nearer to 1 in 530,000 if the Yarkovsky effect is taken into account .
The beast contains iron and nickel and according to radar data , it is elongated with two lobes , which makes it look like a giant peanut .
According to the team , more data needs to be collected in order to fully grasp what this asteroid can and will actually do .
The experts hope to ‘ know well before 2068 if there is any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ asteroid was first spotted , astronomers said there was a 2.7 % chance of it crashing into our planet in 2029 , but new findings show that it will safely bass by within 19,794 miles .

According to the astronomers, prior to this effect, it was impossible for the asteroid to hit earth but that is sadly no longer the case.
Team member Dave Tholen said:
“The new observations we obtained with the Subaru telescope earlier this year were good enough to reveal the Yarkovsky acceleration of Apophis, and they show that the asteroid is drifting away from a purely gravitational orbit by about 170 meters per year, which is enough to keep the 2068 impact scenario in play.”
The giant rock has also been awarded the title of NASA’s 3rd-highest threat on the Sentry Risk Table, as per Gizmodo.
According to the table, there is a 1 in 150,000 chance of Apophis crashing into earth in 48 years, but Tholen said that the odds are actually nearer to 1 in 530,000 if the Yarkovsky effect is taken into account.

It is important to remember that a real leader would stand up and discourage violence. Trump, on the other hand, has failed to show his disapproval of the behavior of his supports who often get violent when they are faced with criticism.

Emory University scientists say that the number of coronavirus survivors suffering ‘long-covid’ is hard to determine but ever-growing.
A study analyzing a group of UK coronavirus survivors found that around 74% of the participants were still suffering lingering symptoms months after being discharged. According to other studies, the number is one in 10. Data shows that some of the people developing such antibodies were in significantly good health before contracting the virus.
Researchers have examined genetics as a potential explanation for these long-lingering symptoms. However, the Emory team traced a correlation between the immune overreaction seen during the course of illness with COVID-19, the pattern of ‘flare-ups’, and other non-infectious diseases.
Furthermore, they had noticed that some of the immune proteins and cells in COVID-19 patients’ blood suggested misdirected antibody attacks.
Dr. Marion Pepper, an immunologist at the University of Washington in Seattle, told the New York Times:
“Anytime you have that combination of inflammation and cell death, there is the potential for autoimmune disease and autoantibodies, more importantly, to emerge.”
To test their theory, the experts established a series of blood tests on 52 discharged coronavirus patients.
The participants in the examination were former COVID-19 patients who had been ‘severely’ or ‘critically’ ill. Their results showed that:

Among the top half of the most seriously ill patients, more than 70% had autoantibodies against one of the targets tested.
Some of the patients had antibodies against a protein called ‘rheumatoid factor’ and others that help with blood clotting.
These outcomes could well explain both the inflammation and cardiovascular issues seen in many long-haulers.
Unfortunately, since antibodies formed against coronavirus have been shown to dim with time, this may indicate that protection against reinfection does too. Nevertheless, it is still unclear whether autoantibodies likewise wane over time.
As per Ann Marshak-Rothstein, an immunologist and lupus expert at the University of Massachusetts, if the autoantibodies do turn out to be long-lasting, they may result in persistent, even lifelong, problems for COVID-19 survivors. Giving the lupus condition as an example, she notes:
“You never really cure lupus — they have flares, and they get better and they have flares again. And that may have something to do with autoantibody memory.”
