#music, Musical Thursday! Rock and Roll! – JaZzArt en València

These are some of my favourite rock and roll songs, although not necessarily in that order…

  1. «Brown Sugar» by the best rock and roll band in history…

2. «Personality Crisis» by the second best rock and roll band…

3. Of course there had to be a Beatles song here…

These are three to whet your appetite, meaning to increase your interest…

Agroecological solutions better than pesticides in fighting fall armyworm, experts say

  • Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is an invasive agricultural pest, which first hit West Africa in 2016 and quickly spread across the continent.
  • Experts have now found that the pest’s impact on maize yields is no longer as severe as initially feared.
  • An integrated pest management approach, prioritizing nontoxic control measures, is the best way to tackle the infestation, improve yields and protect human health, according to experts.

Bem – Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Se existe algo nesse mundo que reluz sob qualquer designo é o bem. Não conheço força maior que possa se revestir de tamanha pureza, e não seja capaz de tocar o coração dos que nele crer.

Man who sought to spark ‘race war’ pleads guilty to firebombing O.C. Planned Parenthood clinic – Los Angeles Times

The final defendant tied to the firebombing of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Costa Mesa pleaded guilty Thursday for his role in that crime and for another plot to damage Orange County’s power grid.

Tibet Ergul, 22, pleaded guilty to federal charges of conspiracy to damage an energy facility and intentional damage to a Reproductive Health Services Facility. He was one of three suspects arrested in connection with the 2022 attack on the clinic.

Ergul’s co-defendants, Xavier Batten, of Brooksville, Fla., and Chance Brannon, of San Juan Capistrano, also pleaded guilty in recent months. Ergul had been slated to go to trial in March.

Good Bye Mitch … Hello WHO??? | Filosofa’s Word

Yesterday Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell announced that he will be stepping down from his leadership position at the end of this year.  Note that he is not retiring from the Senate, only from his leadership role.  It is tempting, at first glance, to feel empathy for Mitch who has some obvious health problems as well as problems with his own cohorts in the Senate who seem to feel that Mitchie isn’t quite radical enough, not quite committed enough to Trump and the far-right agenda.  But a reminder of all the damage Mitch has done throughout the years quickly erases much of that empathy, as Robert Reich reminds us in his newsletter today.  BUT … let the buyer beware … there is a nightmare in the last sentence.


GOODBYE, MITCH: YOU WERE THE WORST

But the Republicans might find someone even worse to replace you

By Robert Reich

29 February 2024

He will be remembered as one of the most dangerous politicians in living memory. He helped transform the Republican Party into a cult, worshiping at the altar of authoritarianism. He’s damaged our country in ways that may take a generation to undo…

Just My Song – yaskhan


A site like this is wonderful, I think 
Where there is so much pouring of ink 
We can write and just be ourselves 
with each stroke of letter, draw on each other’s strength 
we can share our thoughts for what they are worth 
forgetting there is sadness and just feeling the mirth 
in the flow of emotions that we continue to share 
we unlock our hearts to no longer feel despair 
we can’t see each other yet we can connect 
across oceans, seas, in places, with poetry we reflect 
scribed on WordPress scrolls, memories get filed 
the poetry I read here has me beguiled. 
Finding inspiration and hope from fellow poets 
they pull me out when I am at my lowest 
we can rhyme without reason and reason without rhyme 
this rhyme and reason helps me dream big-time
this trail of poetry from me to you 
across your world to mine , our smiles we renew.

Texas governor calls on citizens to report parents of transgender kids for abuse (Me: Texas Gestapo promoted by Governor of Texas)

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is calling on “licensed professionals” and “members of the general public” to report the parents of transgender minors to state authorities if it appears the minors are receiving gender-affirming medical care.

The directive was part of a letter Abbott, a Republican, sent Tuesday to the Department of Family and Protective Services, calling on it to “conduct a prompt and thorough investigation” of any reported instances of minors undergoing “elective procedures for gender transitioning.”

Abbott’s letter follows an opinion released Monday by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, which stated that allowing minors to receive transition care such as puberty blockers, hormone therapy and surgery is child abuse under state law.

Another Exotic Vegetables to Enjoy in Your Curry! Okra Curry – Tanooki Homemade Cafe

In today’s post, I’ll talk about curry made with Okra. Well, a lot of people may already be familiar with them but I think they’re exotic indeed. Did you know okra actually originated from Africa? Okra used to be regular vegetables during summer in my household, so I thought they have a root somewhere in Asia, but as I research about Okra, I learned it experts are claiming them to have originated in the part of Ethiopia and Sudan.
