Südsee-Impressionen

Was only in Tahiti for 16 hours on a fueling stop for our ship from Los Angeles to Wellington, NZ. What a delight it was.

Senioren um die Welt

Tahiti zu sehen – das war ein Traum, der für mich zu der damaligen Zeiten unerfüllbar schien. Ich hatte zu meinem 15. Geburtstag ein Poster geschenkt bekommen, auf dem die “Mädchen am Strand” von Paul Gauguin zu sehen waren. Seitdem träumte ich davon, eines Tages nach Tahiti zu fahren, um die Mädchen mit den langen Haaren und den bunten Pareos selbst zu sehen, die Insel schien für mich das “Paradies auf Erden” zu sein. Damals waren Reisen in andere Länder für mich überhaupt nicht vorstellbar, und schon gar nicht Reisen in die ferne Südsee.

Arizona governor OK’s ban on school COVID-19 vaccines | The Daily Independent at YourValley.net (Me: Full blown crazy – GOP still wants more people to die from Covid to satisfy fake political rage of Covidiots and QAnon)

Arizona’s Republican governor has signed legislation that will prevent state health officials from ever adding a COVID-19 vaccine to the list of required school inoculations and bar face mask mandates in any buildings operated by state or local governments.

The two coronavirus bills signed by Gov. Doug Ducey on Friday would permanently block disease mitigation measures that health professionals say are critical to reining in the coronavirus pandemic if case counts again surge or the virus mutates and becomes more deadly to children.

The ban on face masks in libraries, courthouses and other public buildings could also affect efforts to stem the spread of a new airborne illness. Ducey’s office released no comment from the governor when it announced late Friday afternoon that he had signed the two bills along with 18 others.

Lesson Day 12, Cooperation, and Signatures

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

     This week’s lesson plan is Day 12 of 67, from my GED in 5 month plan set.   This lesson on cooperation, using the example of Medieval Andalucia during the time of La Convivencia (link to a cited Yale article in Lesson Day 5 plan…), seems especially apt right now.

 

I’ve also decided that I like my old  “sig”   john_hancock_envelope_signature  enough to change it:

Support our key #PublicDomainInfrastructure  & #StopSmoking for CCOVID-19:
1. #PublicLibraries,
2. #ProBono legal aid and Education,
3. #UniversalHealthCare, and
4. good #publictransport

   Now it no longer references Twit, but it still may be a distraction if I add it to my three link signature at the bottom of my posts.  Thoughts?

 

     I look forward to hearing your opinions, Thoughtful Readers.

We can really  Do Better.

-Shira
