Holstein

Altweibersommer in Holstein, und alle Menschen hier sind relaxed und freundlich. Könnte nicht besser sein.

Vergessen? Vergesslich?

Aus neurowissenschaftlicher Perspektive löscht das Gehirn nicht notwendige Erinnerungen.

Viele Bereiche unseres Lebens würden ohne Vergessen schlechter funktionieren. Unsere kognitiven Fähigkeiten wären betroffen, emotional ginge es uns schlechter und auch unsere Kreativität würde darunter leiden.

Also kurz: Vergessen ist normal und schützt das Organ Gehirn!

Aus Holstein mit besten Gruessen und auch Wuenschen

Banksy is a British street artist known for his politically charged and often satirical graffiti. His work, characterized by stenciled designs, addresses themes like war, consumerism, and social injustice. Despite his fame, Banksy’s identity remains anonymous. Some of his most famous works include “Girl with Balloon” and “There Is Always Hope.” He has also made headlines for unconventional stunts, like the partial shredding of his artwork, “Girl with Balloon,” during a 2018 auction.

Cohen und der Weltgeist

Kurt Kister SZ App:

 Geblieben ist Cohens Musik,

geblieben sind seine Gedanken durch Texte und Lieder.

Geblieben sind Spuren einer Liebe, die bleibt.

Ewig.

Das lässt sich auch wunderbar in einer Serie nachvollziehen, die Sara Maria Behbehani empfiehlt.

Wer kann schon vergessen, bei diesen Abschiedsworten: „Wisse, dass ich so dicht hinter dir bin, dass du meine Hand berühren kannst, wenn du deine ausstreckst.“ Nein, tot ist Cohen wirklich nicht.

From Germany Hamburg Tagesschau: Quoted on Thu 12 Sep 2024 at 11:03 am.

German Tagesschau ARD on Trump & Harris

A TV debate on US television lives from images, and at least in this respect Harris was clearly on the winning side. When she spoke, she seemed clear, focused and confident and often looked into the camera with open, sparkling eyes. When it was Trump’s turn, she looked over at him, occasionally putting on an amused smile, shaking her head or laughing out loud.  

Trump, on the other hand, avoided any eye contact with his rival, mostly looked at the moderators with his eyes narrowed and visibly tried to keep his composure. Every now and then he shrugged his shoulders, but no matter how hard he pulled himself together, he could not hide his anger.

With the Swifties now supporting Harris, the chances of Trump and Elon Musk will disappear like tracks in the sand, blown away by the winds. There might be storms, though …

Morgenstund‘

Anne Evans, (1820–1870)

The summer sward is somewhat hard
Methinks as here I lie;
Yet here I stay, because I love
To look into the sky,
To place behind me for a while
The world and all its ill.
And gaze into the space of space,
How pure, and O, how still!

Frantz (Film) 2016 | Manet Louvre Suicide Painting

Actor Paula Beer | Director Francois Ozon

The scene where Anna takes the train to France, with the locomotive shown diagonally from left to right, is visually and symbolically significant.

Symbolism and Visual Impact

  • Transition and Movement: The diagonal framing of the train emphasizes movement and transition. It visually represents Anna’s journey from her past in Germany to an uncertain future in France. This movement signifies her attempt to leave behind her grief and seek closure or new beginnings.
  • Dynamic Composition: The diagonal composition creates a dynamic and dramatic visual effect. It draws the viewer’s eye across the screen, enhancing the sense of urgency and emotional intensity of Anna’s journey.
  • Breaking Boundaries: The diagonal line can also symbolize breaking free from the constraints of her current life. It suggests a departure from the static, grief-stricken existence she has been living, moving towards potential healing and reconciliation.

Atmospheric and Emotional Context

  • Emotional Turmoil: The train journey is a pivotal moment for Anna, filled with emotional turmoil and hope. The dramatic framing underscores the significance of this decision and the emotional weight it carries.
  • Historical Context: Trains in the early 20th century were a primary means of long-distance travel, symbolizing progress and connection between distant places. This historical context adds to the authenticity and period feel of the film.

Cohen

Songs Of Love And Hate

“Joan of Arc” by Leonard Cohen is a hauntingly beautiful song from his 1971 album Songs of Love and Hate. The lyrics depict a dialogue between Joan of Arc and the fire that consumes her, symbolizing her martyrdom and spiritual journey.

Now the flames they followed Joan of Arc

As she came riding through the dark

No moon to keep her armor bright

No man to get her through this very smoky night …

—-+++—-

Bob Dylan directly references Joan of Arc in his song “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall.” In this song, he includes the line:

I met a young woman whose body was burning …

This line is widely interpreted as a reference to Joan of Arc, who was burned at the stake.

Dylan uses this imagery to evoke powerful and tragic historical events, blending them into his broader narrative of social and political turmoil.

Exploring the Cosmos with David Kipping

David Kipping is a prominent figure in the field of astronomy and astrophysics, currently serving as an assistant professor at Columbia University. His research primarily focuses on the fascinating realms of extrasolar planets, moons, and rings, as well as stellar rotation and limb darkening¹.

Kipping’s journey into the cosmos began with his B.A. and M.Sc. in Natural Sciences from Cambridge University, followed by a Ph.D. from University College London¹. His postdoctoral work at Harvard, supported by the Sagan and Menzel fellowships, further solidified his expertise in observational astronomy¹.

At Columbia, Kipping leads the Cool Worlds Lab, where he and his team delve into the mysteries of the universe, seeking to uncover new worlds beyond our solar system¹. His work has not only advanced our understanding of exoplanets and exomoons but also inspired many through his engaging presentations and educational content on the Cool Worlds YouTube channel².

Kipping’s dedication to exploring the unknown and his ability to communicate complex scientific concepts to the public make him a standout figure in modern astronomy. His contributions continue to push the boundaries of our knowledge, bringing us closer to answering some of the most profound questions about our place in the universe.

Jordan B. Peterson is a clinical psychologist and professor. He is known for his thought-provoking interviews. In a recent conversation with Piers Morgan, Peterson delved into various topics such as free speech, truth, and personal responsibility². He also discussed his meeting with football star Cristiano Ronaldo, who sought his advice, and responded to criticisms from public figures like Olivia Wilde².

Peterson’s interviews often explore deep philosophical and psychological concepts, challenging both the interviewer and the audience to think critically about societal norms and individual behavior. His ability to articulate complex ideas in an accessible manner has made him a prominent figure in contemporary discourse.

In Europe JBP is hardly known as he was attacked by the left and named a right wing intellectual as he asked for free speech on campus.

In some Unis around the globe his invitations were cancelled because of left wing protests.

I’m traveling light
It’s au revoir
My once so bright
My fallen star
I’m running late
They’ll close the bar
I used to play
One mean guitar
I guess I’m just
Somebody who
Has given up
On the me and you
I’m not alone
I’ve met a few
Traveling light like
We used to do
(Lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)
Goodnight goodnight
My fallen star
I guess you’re right
You always are
I know you’re right
About the blues
You live some life
You’d never choose
I’m just a fool
A dreamer who
Forgot to dream
Of the me and you
I’m not alone
I’ve met a few
Traveling light like
We used to do
(Lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)
Traveling light
It’s au revoir
My once so bright
My fallen star
I’m running late
They’ll close the bar
I used to play
One mean guitar
I guess I’m just
Somebody who
Has given up
On the me and you
I’m not alone
I’ve met a few
Traveling light like
We used to do
But if the road
Leads back to you
Must I forget
The things I knew
When I was friends
With one or two
Traveling light like
We used to do
I’m traveling light (lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)

Why?

Smart children cannot stop asking why.

Some adults, according to their own education and childhood, might become very angry and answer in short

Could you please stop asking stupid questions?

Are there any stupid questions anyway?

Well, after teaching high schools for 35 years, I must admit, there are some stupid questions. However, blocking smart children from asking their questions is not a very good idea at all.

Because they will always try to find an answer how the world is working, or, in the words of the German Shakespeare, Johann Wolfgang Goethe

Was die Welt im Innersten zusammenhält.

So, why is a very smart question, and telling kids to shut up might be necessary from time to time; however, telling them why you are not able to answer their question at a certain moment in time is always a good idea.

AND TODAY YOU MIGHT WISH TO FIND OUT ABOUT THE HYPE ON LONGEVITY AND THE BLUE ZONES, AND WHY THE BRAIN IS AN ORGAN.

About the Cingulate Gyrus

Muscles and Brains | Organs of Humans

Key factor 1: Exercise

Key factor 2: Nutrition

Key factor 3: Social life

The fact is…

The brains of the superagers in a given area appeared to be very healthy; they also have another special feature, reports Düzel: 

An area of the anterior part of the cingulate gyrus was relatively large in comparison.

This is a region that is associated with perseverance and the ability to maintain effort. 

“This could be the basis for super-agers living a healthier lifestyle.” 

But not everyone who lives a healthy life becomes a superager, emphasises Düzell. BECAUSE …

  • The rest is DNA and a dose of luck.
  • No accidents and the like…

The wrong place at the wrong time might cause an accident.

Why?
