Under-Water..

 


President Joe Biden’s approval rating sank to a new low in a Marquette University Law School poll released on Wednesday.

According to the survey of 1,063 adults across the country, just 34% of the country approves of the way Biden “is handling his job as president,” while 66% disapprove, putting him underwater by a shell-shocking 32 points.
That’s the worst net approval rating Biden has posted in the poll since taking office. It appears that the president’s decision to go back on his word and pardon his son, Hunter Biden , for any crimes he may have committed over a more than decade-long period, may have contributed to his plummeting popularity. Just 29% of respondents said they approved of the pardon, while 71% disapproved.

Muscles..

 

Skeletal muscles—those attached to your bones by tendons—make up about a third of the human body. They are voluntary muscles, which means you consciously control how they work, and perform a range of functions and movements throughout the body. 

There are some 650 skeletal muscles given Latin names according to their location, size and shape, and action. 

Muscles are made up of fibers that can get stretched or torn. When a muscle is overused—whether by too much repetitive movement or too much force or resistance.

Exercises to stretch and strengthen the muscles of the upper and lower leg are meant to keep these muscles flexible and strong, which is needed for good movement, balance and bone health.

 Improving balance will make any athlete perform better and becomes even more important to prevent falls at an older age.

 Exercising to keep your bones healthy is also crucial, whether it’s to keep playing sports at a high level or just continuing long walks with the dog.  Just a thought.

Porche..

 

Mayor Eric Adams' recently departed chief advisor Ingrid Lewis-Martin will surrender to face charges in Lower Manhattan Thursday morning, along with her son, Glenn Martin II, and two other men.

Specifically, they are the men who loaned Lewis-Martin's son $100,000 last year to buy a Porsche after she helped them resolve a buildings department issue with a construction project in one of their hotels.

The loan was memorialized in a promissory note. It is unclear if the loan has been paid back.

Torn..

 

Israel rejected Turkish accusations on Tuesday following Ankara’s condemnation of Israeli military actions in Syria, as Turkey escalates its own operations in the war-torn country. 
The rising tensions have deepened the rift between the two nations and sparked concerns over regional stability and the fate of U.S.-backed Kurdish forces fighting ISIS.
On Monday, the Turkish Foreign Ministry criticized Israel for expanding settlements in the Golan Heights, calling it part of Israel’s "expansion of borders through occupation." 
Turkey urged Israel to comply with the 1974 Disengagement Agreement, which established a cease-fire between Israel and Syria.
However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the agreement void, arguing it no longer applied after forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad abandoned their positions on the Syrian side during the country’s civil war. Netanyahu has described the Golan Heights as a vital security buffer and integral to Israel’s defense strategy against Iran and Hezbollah, which operate in Syria.
The Great powers weaken the Syrian Government and economy for fourteen years, and now it is left to be run over by all. Who is benefitting out of its destruction?

Don't..

 

Veganism..

 



Veganism is a lifestyle choice and form of activism that involves abstaining from the use of animal products

Vegans may avoid animal-derived food, clothing, and makeup. Veganism is motivated by a variety of reasons, including personal health, animal rights, environmentalism, and ethics. 

A vegan diet is based on plants and foods made from plants. Vegans do not eat foods that come from animals, including dairy products and eggs.

Whether you’re a meat eater or vegan, getting some of your protein from plant-based protein sources is important. Replacing animal-based protein even just two meals per week for plant-based ones such as this three-bean chili will help improve your health. 

Another point about protein? It’s digested more slowly than carbohydrates and is a great tool to keeping you satisfied after a meal.
