Roam Free..

 

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced the arrest of a Moldovan illegal immigrant and convicted killer who tortured and threw a victim out of a ninth-floor window.

According to DHS, Sorocean and an accomplice tortured their victim inside an apartment in Chisinau, Moldova, beating the person with a stick and electrical cable before throwing the victim out a ninth-floor window.

Victoria Sorocean was taken into custody in Los Angeles on Nov. 4 by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after authorities learned she had been convicted of premeditated murder with exceptional cruelty in 2013, ICE told Fox News on Tuesday.

She was sentenced to 17 years in prison but fled the country to avoid serving her sentence.
Sorocean was first arrested by ICE on Jan. 10, 2020, under the first Trump administration, but she later filed multiple legal appeals and asylum claims to delay removal, DHS said.

DHS said the case highlights the failures of the previous administration, which it said allowed millions of illegal aliens, including violent criminals and murderers like Sorocean, to roam free in American neighborhoods. Just a thought.

Eye-Rolls

 

Democrats’ impeachment season has begun.

The House of Representatives on Thursday blocked a resolution to impeach President Donald Trump.

 Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who introduced the resolution, has already had one attempt at impeachment rejected this year and has been introducing impeachment resolutions against the president ever since Trump first took office in 2017.

But with campaign season approaching, Trump’s popularity may be waning and Democratic primary voters looking for candidates with backbone, Green’s lonely quest to use the House impeachment power is gaining some new supporters eager to make political gains, even as it prompts eye-rolls from other party members.

Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) filed impeachment articles against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on Wednesday and Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.) this week introduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for his murderous boat strikes and reckless handling of classified information.

Sabotage..

 

The Outgoing Mayor Eric Adams is racing to fill key positions before Zohran Mamdani takes office, including on the powerful Rent Guidelines Board, which could undermine the incoming mayor’s pledge to freeze rents on more than 1 million stabilized apartments.

First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro said Adams plans to appoint and reappoint several members to the rental board before he steps down at year-end and is considering candidates who have put their names forward to fill vacant spots. 

The mayor could secure a majority of appointees whose terms would extend beyond Adams’s final days in office, Mastro said in an interview.

“The board’s composition will be critical for Mamdani, whose rent-freeze platform was central to his election victory. A stacked board could blunt his efforts, at least in his first year.  Just a thought.

One of the best things you can do as you get older is walk regularly. Walking is easy, accessible, costs nothing, and may even add years to your life. Still, simply going for a stroll every day can start to feel a bit boring. “Any repetitive motion in one plane of motion, such as walking forward, will activate the same muscles each time,” added Amy West, M.D., a sports medicine physician at Northwell Health in New York. That means you won't get the aerobic and strength gains you need as you age—but incorporating different ways to walk to build muscle can get you all those perks.

Lindsey Benoit O’Connell, C.S.C.S., a certified trainer, a meditation teacher, and the founder of The LAB Wellness, agreed: “Different walking styles can help improve balance, coordination, and agility,” she said. Aside from building strength throughout your body, using different walking styles “challenges your brain to work harder to coordinate the steps,” O’Connell added. Then, once you can confidently do all of these, you can add high-intensity intervals or extra resistance. “Mix up your walks during the week by doing different styles on different days­," O'Connell suggested. "Over time, you’ll see big payoffs!”

Poll Number..

 

Senate Democrats on the Joint Economic Committee released a report Thursday estimating that tariffs cost the typical U.S. family nearly $1,200 from February through November.

Using data from multiple government agencies and Goldman Sachs, the report found the monthly cost of tariffs for households jumped from $54.65 in February to $184.51 in October.

If tariff levels remain unchanged in 2026, the typical household is projected to pay about $2,100 more for goods due to tariffs, the report said.

Tariffs, a tax on companies importing goods into the United States, are often passed on to consumers when businesses raise prices to offset the added expense. Some companies have said they try to absorb the costs, but many have not.

Comment:

 During a press conference in Brussels in March 2022, President Biden was discussing the global impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on wheat and other grain supplies. He stated that the food shortages were "going to be real" in the context of global supply chain disruptions and the US sanctions added mainly on Russia but affecting many countries, particularly those in the Middle East and Africa. Just a thought.

المخيخ

 

تُشغّل رياضة تنس الطاولة المخيخ بشكل كبير، وهو مركز التنسيق في الدماغ، نظرًا لمتطلباتها من ردود الفعل السريعة، والتنسيق بين اليد والعين، والمعالجة السريعة لدوران الكرة ومسارها، مما يتطلب تكاملًا بين المهارات الحركية (المخيخ والفصين الجداري والقذالي) والتفكير الاستراتيجي (قشرة الفص الجبهي) لتحقيق النجاح.
يعزز هذا العمل السريع والمنسق المسارات العصبية، ويحسن الوظائف المعرفية مثل الانتباه، ويعزز ترابط الدماغ، مما يجعلها "رياضة ذهنية" تُفيد في تحسين المرونة العقلية.

يجب عليك تتبع الكرة، وتوقع دورانها، والتخطيط للضربات، وكل ذلك يتضمن المخيخ للتنسيق والفصين الجداري والقذالي للمعالجة البصرية.
تخطط قشرة الفص الجبهي للتكتيكات، بينما يعمل المخيخ وقشرة الفص الجبهي معًا لتنفيذ الحركة البدنية الكاملة.
تُظهر الدراسات أن لاعبي تنس الطاولة لديهم زيادة في الاتصال الوظيفي الديناميكي في مناطق تشمل المخيخ والحصين والقشرة البصرية، مما يشير إلى مرونة أفضل في الشبكة العصبية.

Table tennis heavily engages the cerebellum, the brain's coordination center, due to its demands for fast reflexes, hand-eye coordination, and rapid processing of the ball's spin and trajectory, requiring integration between motor skills (cerebellum, parietal/occipital lobes) and strategic thought (prefrontal cortex) for successful execution. 

The cerebellum is crucial for coordinating movements, and table tennis trains it intensely with its quick back-and-forth action, linking vision to motor response.

• You must track the ball, anticipate spin, and plan shots, all involving the cerebellum for coordination and the parietal/occipital lobes for visual processing.
• Studies show ping pong players have increased dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) in areas including the cerebellum, hippocampus, and visual cortex, indicating better network flexibility.
