Vaccine Mandate Unleashes a Mob in a Small Polish Town – The New York Times (Me: being dumb about health is pandemic too)

Wlodzimierz Lipa, a 71-year-old pensioner who got his second Pfizer shot last week in Walbrzych, said that people attacking the mayor as a Nazi “have a screw loose.” He added that, as a former patient in the local hospital’s cardiac ward, he trusts Dr. Szelemej on health matters far more than he does the doctor’s critics: “Thanks to him I am alive,” he said.

Still, the anti-vaccination cause in Walbrzych and elsewhere, galvanized by false information and conspiracy theories on the internet, has found wide traction.

Russia Rejects Some Flight Plans, as Belarus Grows More Isolated – The New York Times

Protonmail, a Swiss email provider whose service the Belarusian authorities said was used in sending the bomb threat, on Thursday countered Mr. Lukashenko’s version. The email in question, the company said, was sent after the plane had already been diverted by Belarusian air traffic controllers to Minsk.

The revelation backed up the widely held view that the claim of a bomb threat was a ruse to capture Mr. Protasevich, who had been living in exile since 2019.

“We can confirm that the message in question was sent after the plane was redirected,” Protonmail said in a statement. “We have not seen credible evidence that the Belarusian claims are true, and we will support European authorities in their investigations upon receiving a legal request.”

Bob Dylan zum 80. Geburtstag …

Skizzenbuch/Blog

Ein Grund zum Feiern…. (Foto: R. Geisler)

Heute wird Robert Allen Zimmermann, geb. am 24.05.1941 im tiefsten Minnesota, 80 Jahre alt. Und hier ist mein ganz persönliches Geschenk für Bob, der immer einen ganz besonderen Platz in meinem musikalischen Herzen hat: ein von Hand gezeichnetes Portrait, das in in jungen Jahren zeigt – grübelnd und in sich versunken, umgeben von einem Buchstaben-Potpourri, einem leeren Blatt Papier und natürlich einer Gitarre. Ich habe dafür Tinte, Bleistifte und Farbstifte in blau, ocker und braun benutzt.

FINDING A FACE IN THE CROWD NOT AN EASY TASK

Kone, Krusos, Kronos

His Face Invisible But Present On Each Of USOh Lord!

Your face present on every being,

In the multitude.

But so difficult

To recognize You,

On anyone’s face.

How many faces we see daily, regardless of the mask most wear outside, their own natural mask on these days of pandemics?

To live in your presence day, by day, minute by minute, and You escaping our gaze, possible the most challenging of endeavors it’s to recognize You, not in one, but on the many.

Blinded by your own diversity, we struggle to find you even in one person, how much difficult it’s to find you on every face, and everything.

USS Cod (SS 224)

Pacific Paratrooper

U.S.S.Cod(SS 224), was launched on March 21, 1943. under the command of CDR James C. Dempsey, USN. Dempsey had already won fame by sinking the first Japanese destroyer lost in the war while in command of a tiny, World War I-era submarine.

It was onCod‘s third patrol, Dempsey’s last in command, thatCodfought her biggest battle. Tracking a massive Japanese convoy heading for Subic Bay in the Philippines on the night of May 10, 1944,Codmaneuvered into firing position just after sunrise.Codfired three of her four stern tubes at the Japanese destroyer,IJN Karukaya,before unloading all six of her bow tubes at two columns of cargo ships and troop transports. Dempsey watched as the first torpedo exploded under the destroyer’s bridge after a short, 26 second run. Both smoke stacks collapsed and dozens of enemy sailors (watching for submarines) were tossed high…

Fagiolini rigati con lenticchie nere

Google translation of the introduction: Black lentils! Ever seen in circulation? Very good … and they do not require soaking as their cooking takes about 20 minutes (like their cousins, among other things).

InTheNameOfSeitan

Le lenticchie nere! Mai viste in circolazione? Buonissime…e non necessitano di ammollo in quanto la loro cottura si aggira all’incirca sui 20 minuti(come le loro cugine fra l’altro).


Responsabili della colorazione nera sarebbero gli antociani che altro non sono che dei pigmenti in grado di proteggere la pianta dai danni causati dalle radiazioni ultraviolette, assorbendo luce di una determinata lunghezza d’onda, mentre sul nostro organismo hanno un effetto antiossidante e che contribuirebbe alla prevenzione dell’invecchiamento cellulare e delle patologie cardiovascolari.


Altro formato insolito di pasta che adopereremo sono i fagiolini rigati. Dal titolo della ricetta potrebbe sembrare che sono coinvolti 2 varietà di legumi nella realizzazione del piatto invece no: parliamo di un formato di pasta (i fagiolini rigati), e di una particolare varietà di lenticchie (quelle nere per l’appunto). Cominciamo… 😉👌



Ingredienti(per 2 persone):


180gr di fagiolini rigati


120gr di lenticchie nere

Sudden COVID upsurge in India since end of March has laid a never seen before catastrophe.Virus only exposed our shallow side cause a large part of these miseries are man made disaster. India is a land which has been running on faith and beliefs since centuries but this time was a reminder of the fact that in order to manage such vast population administration must plan and not let faith only deal.

We were hurting. People around were hurting. We wanted to be there..but didn’t know how.. How do you hold space for someone’s grief?

We DIDN’T know what the other person was going through in those moments , but in a way knew it all as these were the days when we could feel the pain of all strangers even.Each…
