Retiring

Calling it quits next week. Been having some dizzy spells when getting up and supervisors are a little nervous. They offered an escort whenever I go out in the plant (recycle paper mill) but I decided it's time. Short term disability pays 70% and assuming I get SSDI, I will actually be taking home more money.

First trip is going down to the Gulf Shores area, wife has a whole list of things she wants to see, I just want to go fishing for a morning. The rest probably won't be so far away.

A gray-haired older woman sat motionless with her gaze lowered. In the late stages of dementia, she no longer spoke to others or made eye contact.
When Ayako Yonetani started playing the violin, the woman slowly lifted her head.
“Her mouth moved, and her eyes brightened as if she heard my music and was trying to follow it,” recounted Ms. Yonetani, a concert artist and professor of violin and viola at the University of Central Florida School of Performing Arts.
Those who spent time with the older woman were astonished. “They had never seen her react like this before,” she said. But this was only one of many times that Ms. Yonetani had seen such a thing.

Clear Evidence

One study published in the 1990s in the journal Nature drew people’s attention.
Three groups of participants were instructed to either sit in silence, listen to a relaxation tape, or listen to Mozart’s Sonata for Two Pianos in D major (K448).
Ten minutes later, the group who listened to Mozart’s music showed a significant improvement in spatial IQ score—nearly 10 points higher than the other two groups.

Biden blocks U.S. military aid to Israel..

Someone tell me again why we should vote for this houseplant...?

President Joe Biden halted a large shipment of aerial bombs to Israel last week in an effort to force the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to bend to his wishes as he faces backlash from the anti-Semitic forces within his own party.

The Associated Press reported that the shipment was supposed to include 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs. The administration is also holding off on providing Israel with Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) kits, which turn bombs into precision-guided smart bombs.

Biden stopped the shipment to protest Israel’s decision to go forward with trying to eliminate the Hamas terrorists that remain within the Gazan city of Rafah.

The administration claimed that its concern had to do with providing Israel with large explosive ordnance that could be used in Rafah where Palestinians are densely packed into small spaces.


No weapons to them...
