Merci pour le chocolat !

Switzerland – Traveling to the land of chocolate is great, but in small doses, just like tasting a good fondant tablet. A day or two, if you are on your way on the routes from east to western Europe. There are two reasons: nature and art museums that organize particularly attractive exhibitions.

Martigny, 2018

Să călătorești în țara ciocolatei e minunat, însă în doze mici, exact așa cum deguști o tabletă bună fondantă. O zi-două, dacă îți este în drum în traseele dinspre estul spre vestul europei. Două motive sunt: natura și muzeele de artă care organizează expoziții deosebit de atractive.

Am făcut cu sora mea o scurtă iesire din Italia, special la Martigny ca să vedem expoziția Pierre Soulages laFundația Pierre Gianadda. Este unul dintre artiștii plasticieni pe care îi urmez atunci când li se dedică un eveniment. Actualmente, Soulages, în vârsta de 98 de ani, este cel mai cotat pictor francez contemporan.

Orășelul este mic, impecabil de dichisit, dar nu prezintă alt obiectiv decât cel cultural, creat în jurul Fundației.

Nu aveam nicio idee unde se afla muzeul și nici navigator în mașină. Însă, chiar în momentul când credeam că ne-am rătăcit, au început să apară, la fiecare…

The Generosity of Plants — Micro of the Macro

This week, I’ve begun reading The Well-Gardened Mind: The Restorative Power of Nature by Sue Stuart-Smith.  The book presents various research findings on working with Nature and draws beautiful parallels between gardening and developing a healthy mindset.  Stuart-Smith is a psychiatrist and psychotherapist, and her book was chosen by The Times, Britain’s oldest national daily […]

Biden Discloses Some of Trump’s Secret Drone Strike Rules (Me: Good move to moderate strikes)

The Biden administration suspended the Trump-era rules on its first day in office and imposed an interim policy of requiring White House approval for proposed strikes outside of the war zones of Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. At the same time, the Biden team began a review of how both Obama- and Trump-era policies had worked — both on paper and in practice — with an eye toward developing its own policy.

Israel’s Iron Dome missile system causing cancer among soldiers, finds report | PNN

At least 10 Israeli soldiers, in their 20s and 30s, said at the end of their military service or after they were discharged that they had developed cancer following their stint with the Iron Dome unit, according to an investigative report by the Hebrew-language Yedioth Ahronoth daily newspaper.

They called the radar box of the Iron Dome system, which intercepts short-range missiles, “the toaster.”

“When you are near the radar box, you feel your whole body boiling on the inside,” Yonatan Haimovitz, 31, served for two years in the Israeli air force before being re-stationed to an Iron Dome battery, said.

“You imagine this is how food feels inside a microwave. You feel the heat waves,” he added.

At the age of 22, doctors discovered that Haimovitz had a tumor.

“It was a lump in my neck about that size of a ping pong ball sitting on the main artery and stopping blood flow. I went through chemotherapy and radiation treatment,” he said.

“They never equipped us against the radiation,” Shir Tahar, who was diagnosed with leukemia ten months after finishing her military service, said.
