Violência Contra a Mulher/Trabalho/Conscientização – Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Escrever é uma formar de levar informação à mulher que é vítima de violência. Claro que tudo isso tem uma história por trás, e eu vou dividir com vocês. A vontade de escrever, ela surgiu a partir de uma necessidade que veio, ainda no período da faculdade. Eu e os meus colegas de classe, estamos estagiando, sendo orientados pela professora Rosalice Câmara no (Sajulbra)/ ULBRA SANTARÉM, quando um dia nos deparamos com um caso de violência doméstica. Eu confesso que aquela cena pra mim foi impactante, porque, enfim é de uma covardia tremenda. Eu fiquei com àquilo na mente e disse que iria desenvolver um trabalho, onde pudesse falar, levar informação à essas vítimas. Foi quando criei o blog ( Pensamentos.me) e depois de um tempo, fui escrevendo artigos, gravando vídeos que vocês veem, e tudo isso se transformou num trabalho de conscientização, que é o que faço com muita seriedade e respeito.

Eu amo o que faço!

Manhattan district attorney asks judge to extend gag order against Trump | New York | The Guardian

Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney who prosecuted Donald Trump in his felony trial, has asked a judge to extend a gag order against the ex-president after an onslaught of threats and harassment against him and other officials since the guilty verdict.

The gag order was placed on Trump before the start of the felony trial. It prevented the former president from attacking witnesses, court staff, jurors and relatives of Judge Juan Merchan, who oversaw the trial.

Trump’s legal team has unsuccessfully attempted to overturn the gag order, arguing that it prevents voters from being able to hear from a presidential candidate.

But Bragg and others have said that part of the order should remain for jurors, prosecutors, their staff and their families, given a high number of threats, the New York Times reported.

Bragg specifically has faced an onslaught of death threats and harassment since Trump was found guilty. He has received more than 100 threatening emails via his campaign website, the New York Daily News reported, citing a source who asked to remain anonymous.

Several of the abusive messages obtained by the Daily News use racial slurs including the N-word, “gorilla” and “primate”, it reported, adding that Bragg also faced death threats and racial abuse throughout the seven-week trial.

In one instance, a package was sent to Bragg from Portland, Oregon, containing a picture of Bragg alongside a noose, with the caption: “I am past the point of just wanting them in prison.”

The New York police department has logged 56 “actionable threats” since the start of April against Bragg, his employees, and his family, the Times reported.

L’olio da spruzzare sulle foglie | le pagine dei nostri libri

I pesticidi e in generale i metodi di controllo degli insetti infestanti, da un lato servono per proteggere le piante, dall’altro creano grossi problemi agli insetti impollinatori, che sono quindi “utili” e vanno protetti.

Un team dell’università di Wageningen, in Olanda, sta sperimentando in alternativa un olio da spruzzare sulle foglie, in grado di difendere le piante dagli insetti più piccoli senza fare danni ad api, bombi e vespe.

 L’idea per la formulazione di quest’olio è venuta osservando i tricomi ghiandolari presenti su alcune piante. Sono dei “peletti” con la punta appiccicosa, presenti per esempio nelle piante del genere Drosera, che servono per intrappolare gli insetti e trasformarli in fonte di nutrienti; altre piante li usano invece come forma di difesa.

L’idea del team olandese è stata quella di ricreare artificialmente queste strutture, o almeno la loro parte appiccicosa, utilizzando un mix di acqua e olii vegetali che viene sottoposto a un trattamento di ossidazione.

Il risultato è un liquido appiccicoso ma che forma goccioline, meno di un millimetro, che riescono quindi a intrappolare gli insetti più minuscoli ma non creano problemi a quelli più grossi cioè gli impollinatori. Inoltre l’olio non è tossico e la sua composizione potrebbe anche venire modificata per adattarsi a diversi insetti infestanti.

L’olio ha il vantaggio di rimanere appiccicato alle piante per giorni interi, ma soprattutto di essere utilizzabile senza bisogno di equipaggiamento speciale poiché le dimensioni delle gocce non intasano gli spruzzatori.
