Do that mean i am attractive?

I used to think that William Shatner's cover of Rocket Man by Elton John had to be one of the worst song covers to date. Times have changed and I found one that beats it by 1.6 kilometers or roughly one mile.

The original is: She Blinded Me With Science by Thomas Dolby.

Hyperchicken did a cover...



I get the feeling some high-school kids conjured this up to show off their newly learned video editing techniques.

Start by cleansing your face with a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser. This will remove dirt, makeup, and impurities. Use a toner to balance your skin's pH level and minimize pores. This will help your skin better absorb the serum. Apply your chosen anti-aging serum after cleansing, take a few drops of serum onto your fingertips, and gently pat it onto your face. Allow the serum to absorb for a minute or two before moving on to the next step. Apply a moisturizer to lock in hydration and create a protective barrier, make sure it is suitable for your skin type, whether it's oily, dry, or combination. Use the serum daily to see the best results. Consistent use will help your skin maintain its youthful glow and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. In addition to your skincare routine, staying well-hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and nutrients can also contribute to healthy, youthful-looking skin.

Risky business this being a climate activist these days.




These days rather think twice before accepting an invite to join a protest.

An environmental activist died after raising hands and being shot from head to toe by police nearly two months ago near Atlanta, the person's family and attorneys said Monday.

The activist known as “Tortuguita,” whose full name is Manuel Esteban Páez Terán, suffered 14 gunshot wounds on Jan. 18, family attorneys said.




Enjoy the weekend.

A 12 year old boy was told to research the inner workings of the economy and he consulted his father.

His father said:
"Son, an economy works very much like our household. I am the breadwinner who provide for everybody; therefore I am the capitalist. Your mother works with the money within the strict framework of the budget, so she is the government. You are the people. Your baby sister is the future and her babysitter is the working class. Simple as that."

The boy was sceptical about the explanation but decided to leave it there.

Later that night the boy heard his baby sister crying and a quick look revealed that she needed a clean diaper (nappy). He tried to wake his mother from her drunken stupor but failed, so he went to the babysitter. He found his father on top of the babysitter. Not knowing what to do, he quietly went back to his bed.

The next morning he told his father that he finally understood how the economy works. When his father asked him to explain he said: "While the government is asleep, the capitalist screws the working class. The people are ignored while the future is in the shìt."

How To Achieve Radiant Skin

Skincare and Beauty - Crafting a tailored skincare routine is your gateway to achieving radiant skin.
Start by identifying your skin type - oily, dry, combination, or sensitive - to select the right products. Battling acne and scars requires a comprehensive approach, from gentle cleansers to targeted spot treatments. Patience is key, and consulting a dermatologist can offer personalized guidance.

Anti-aging products with ingredients like retinol and hyaluronic acid combat fine lines and age spots, maintaining a youthful appearance. Never underestimate the power of sunscreen in protecting against premature aging. Choose a broad-spectrum SPF suitable for your skin type and apply generously for outdoor activities. Natural and organic beauty products are favored for their gentleness, absence of harsh chemicals, and eco-friendliness. However, research is vital to ensure these products align with your values.

Your diet directly impacts your skin's health. A well-balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains promotes healthy skin and hair. Weight management and overall vitality are maintained through balanced nutrition. Foods like complex carbohydrates and lean proteins provide energy boosts throughout the day. Nutrient-rich options, like eggs and salmon, stimulate hair growth, making diet integral to your beauty routine.

Physical activity is crucial for physical and mental well-being. A balanced workout routine includes both cardio and strength training to shed pounds and sculpt a lean physique. Resistance training and a protein-rich diet are key to building muscle and increasing strength. Targeted exercises, tailored to specific body areas, help you achieve your fitness goals. To maintain exercise motivation, set achievable goals, diversify your workouts, and seek support when needed.

Reducing stress and anxiety is paramount for overall well-being. Incorporate mindfulness techniques such as meditation and deep breathing into your daily routine. Effective relaxation techniques, like yoga and spending time in nature, promote mental respite. Balancing work and personal life is vital for well-being, necessitating boundaries and self-care. The connection between mental and physical health is profound, with regular exercise, a nutritious diet, and adequate sleep contributing to holistic well-being.

Healthy, vibrant hair is a vital part of your beauty routine. Prevent split ends and hair damage with sulfate-free, moisturizing hair products. Opt for air-drying to minimize heat damage. Trendy hairstyles that complement your face shape can enhance your appearance. Natural remedies like coconut oil and aloe vera nourish and strengthen hair. Choose hair products suited to your hair type for the best results.

Makeup enhances your natural beauty. Achieve a natural look with subtle makeup - flawless skin, defined brows, and muted lip color. Experiment with makeup styles, such as the smokey eye, for a creative expression. Prioritize quality and safety when selecting makeup products, favoring reputable brands. If you have sensitive skin, opt for makeup designed for sensitive skin types.

Effective weight management encompasses a balanced diet, regular exercise, and portion control. Sustaining a healthy weight long-term relies on maintaining healthy habits. Consult with nutritionists or dietitians to find the most suitable diet for your needs. Boost metabolism through nutrition, exercise, and building lean muscle mass.

Combat signs of aging with skincare products containing ingredients like retinol and hyaluronic acid. Healthy aging involves maintaining a balanced diet, physical activity, and nurturing your mental health. Look for anti-aging ingredients such as collagen, peptides, and growth factors in skincare products. Don't neglect the health of your hands and nails as you age.
You need not rigidly conform to every guideline.

This blog is a long time coming. The definition expat or expatriation definition can sometimes get cloudy, but it's often when someone formally renounces allegiance to his/her home country and actually gives up his or her citizenship, or something different from simply moving to another country. To some, expat could be used as a derogatory word. Cat has a current blog about Traitors and Deserters and clearly states his blog is not about that.

Here's a snipped of his statement:


I heard the term more than 20 years ago where some of the English speaking dating site members were retired in a Spanish speaking country. The main reason was financial. The economy of a simple lifestyle and improved weather was better suited for them.

Honestly, I don't know if they gave up citizenship of their country of birth, or retained it in the event they traveled back to the homeland.

I know one guy who has extended trips to Costa Rica, he says it's because the prostitutes are like 'groupies to a rock star' and often stay at his place for for free.

I have a son-in-law who came to the US from Italy and became a citizen in less than a decade. There was talk he has dual-citizenship, but I'm not certain.
I guess that's another grey area of countries who allow dual-citizenship.

Winter is coming and already I see the trailers off-loading cars with Canadian license plates. They only stay for 6 months out of the year. Why? After 6 months, the US wants to be able to tax their income!

Yes, that is what they are. Anybody who leaves his country for another because his own country is in bad hands is a traitor and a deserter. Buggering off to find a better living elsewhere only strengthens the hands of those who are mismanaging the country.

The irony is that migrants do not always find a better life. A large proportion end up as cheap labour or in crime or prostitution. And then too many of them lose their lives en route to their Utopia. Something need to be said about the host countries that allow such exploits.

And then, after a few years, comes the disillusionment when things do not work out as expected. That is when you get the problems that France currently face with their migrants killing teachers and destroying goverment property.

If you cannot make it in your own country it is unlikely that you'll make it elsewhere. Stay where you are and fix the problems. Once you start running you never stop.

If storming the Bastille is the only way forward, then storm the effing Bastille. You don't run away when your country needs you.


PS
I'm quite aware that people migrate for many other reasons. This blog is not about them, it only deals with one aspect of migration.
