Warrant..

For much of the world, Israel is now a pariah state that has repeatedly ignored pressure from international bodies to end its brutal war in Gaza, stop using starvation as a weapon of war, and allow more aid into the besieged territory. 

On Monday, the chief prosecutor of the international criminal court (ICC), a separate tribunal also based in The Hague, announced he was seeking arrest warrants for senior Hamas and Israeli leaders for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the 7 October attack by Hamas and the ensuing war in Gaza. 

The prosecutor is seeking warrants against the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and his defense minister, Yoav Gallant, as well as three top Hamas leaders.

Misconduct..

 


U.S. District Judge Janis Sammartino said during a hearing in her San Diego courtroom that prosecutorial “misconduct started (the) unraveling of this case.” She called it an “extremely unfortunate” situation that was “all the government’s making.

In a similar move last year as the result of the same government misconduct, the judge tossed out the jury convictions of four Navy officers who had been found guilty at trial and allowed them to plead guilty to misdemeanor counts.

Sammartino made it clear Tuesday that there was no new information to suggest the five defendants in her courtroom did not accept the bribes or commit the acts to which they previously pleaded guilty. But she said that the misconduct and its snowball effect made it so that dismissing Shedd’s charges and allowing the four misdemeanor plea deals was the best remaining option.

Positive..

 

Perhaps the most important habit of all is maintaining a positive attitude. Those who stay mentally sharp in their golden years often have an optimistic outlook on life.

A positive attitude helps us cope better with stressful situations, reduces the risk of physical health issues, and contributes to longevity. It’s a powerful tool that shapes our reality and influences our mental health.

While everyone’s experience with aging is different, experts are increasingly finding that having a positive mind-set is associated with aging well. A decades-long study of 660 people published in 2002 showed that those with positive beliefs around getting older lived seven and a half years longer than those who felt negatively about it.

Cognitive..

 

Mediterranean diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, olive oil, and lean protein, is often associated with lower risks of cognitive decline.

It’s not about following a strict regime, but rather making healthier choices consistently. Incorporating more brain-boosting foods like blueberries, broccoli, pumpkin seeds, and dark chocolate into our meals can make a significant difference.

Remember, what you eat doesn’t just affect your waistline; it impacts your brain health too. So make the conscious choice to fuel your body and mind with nutritious food.  Just a thought.

Physical..

 

One of the most common habits among people who maintain their mental acuity into their 70s and beyond? Regular physical activity.

And it’s not just about staying physically fit. Physical activity has a direct impact on brain health too.

Exercise increases blood flow to the brain, which helps to support cognitive functions. It also releases chemicals that boost your mood and make you feel more relaxed.

From walking to yoga, swimming to gardening – the type of activity doesn’t really matter. The key is consistency. Just a thought.

Bilk..

 

A federal judge on Tuesday dismissed the felony convictions of five retired military officers who had admitted to accepting bribes from a Malaysian contractor nicknamed "Fat Leonard" in one of the Navy's biggest corruption cases.

Leonard Francis, pleaded guilty to offering more than $500,000 in cash bribes, along with other gifts and wild sex parties in Southeast Asia, to Navy officials, defense contractors and others. The scheme allowed him to bilk the maritime service out of at least $35 million by getting commanders to redirect ships to ports he controlled and overcharging for services, according to the prosecution.

In 2022, the felony convictions of four former Navy officers were  vacated. The four men pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and agreed to pay a $100 fine each.

Errors..

 A federal judge on Tuesday dismissed the felony convictions of five retired military officers who had admitted to accepting bribes from a Malaysian contractor nicknamed "Fat Leonard" in one of the Navy's biggest corruption cases.

Leonard Glenn Francis, pleaded guilty to offering more than $500,000 in cash bribes, along with other gifts and wild sex parties in Southeast Asia, to Navy officials, defense contractors and others. The scheme allowed him to bilk the maritime service out of at least $35 million by getting commanders to redirect ships to ports he controlled and overcharging for services, according to the prosecution.

   The dismissals came at the request of the government not the defense citing prosecutorial errors.  

Prosecutors said in legal filings outlining their request for Tuesday's dismissals that the action does not mean the defendants did not commit the charged crimes but because information was withheld from the defense and other mistakes were made, they wanted to ensure justice was served fairly.
