When are we gonna take the keys away from Joe Biden? Are we really gonna let a mean, spiteful, cognition-challenged old man have access to the 'nuclear football'?
I mean, he doesn't even have access to his own social media accounts. How about taking away his ability to escalate the pointless war in Ukraine?
I saw he was sent to the rainforest - the first US President to visit one. That's a good start. Let's keep him busy making "historic visits" all over the world until it's time to start working on his farewell speech in January. The further, the better, but Brazil may not be far enough.
Our President took a back row position for the group photo, allowing Xi Jinping to take center stage, just as he has in almost all of South America. China has been quietly muscling its way into a position of influence in South America, and America under Joe Biden has meekly allowed it to happen unchallenged.
China builds infrastructure in poor South American nations at cheap interest rates in return for access and influence, putting those nations and assets in their pockets for when they need them. Just wait till China industrializes the clearing of the rainforests to gain the farmland they need. It's going to be world-changing.
China, of course, will claim all they are doing is doing business, "just like the rest of the world". But trust me, if we tried to "invest" in nations in China's neighborhood, there would be repercussions. Why South America, and not parts of the world closer to China? And why use South American nations' poverty and military weakness to ensnare them in agreements they will soon regret and that are not in the interest of anyone but China?
Stjepan Djurekovic was murdered because of his cognitions about oil business, and about that Mika Spiljak knows much more, who at that time was «shooting» on place of President of Yugoslavia, and whose son Vanja was involved in muddily business in INA, said Pavle Gazi in his statement to me.
We have several types of ribbon now too, so whether you're a pretend world champion or you like green and pink, we've got you covered.

These two females, fraternal twins, hatched in March 1989. More than one egg is unusual for this species. They are two of the seven Malacochersus members of the Chelonian Connection lab's study group in Oregon, USA. (Other species: Terrepena spp., Testudo horsefieldi, Trachemys scripta elegans.) For three decades we have explored turtle cognition from the behavioral side, now described in a book-in-progress.

Why Stress Isn’t Always a Bad Thing – And How to Tap Into a Flow State
Your brain releases a large number of hormones and neurotransmitters in response to your cognition. When you are in danger, this leads to the release of dopamine, adrenaline and serotonin to help make you more alert, stronger and faster.
This is the fight or flight response and it’s you at your most powerful.
The problem is that many of us are stressed a lot of the time now and we don’t know how to turn off that fight or flight response. Thus we try to eliminate stress and think we would be a lot happier if we could.
But the reality is that stress isn’t a ‘bad thing’. Rather, stress is a valuable tool that we should tap into when necessary. The key is not to eliminate stress but rather to control it. In this post, we will look at some ways you can do that.
What is a Flow State?
A great example of stress as a positive thing is the flow state. Flow states are states of heightened concentration, increased focus and lightning reflexes. Often they are engaged when we partake in extreme sports.Or when we’re completely focussed on our work or a conversation.
But essentially, the neurotransmitters associated with flow states are very similar to those associated with stress. The only real difference is that you are producing more anandamide (the ‘bliss’ hormone) and more serotonin. In other words, the only real difference is that you are enjoying the experience rather than being afraid of it.
So if you can tap into that when you’re next stressed, then in theory you can experience those same heightened reflexes and attention whenever you need them.
The key is simply to try and see the stressful situation not as something scary but rather as an opportunity to learn and to develop yourself further. View it as a challenge and your body will adapt accordingly.
Eustress
Another example of ‘positive stress’ is what’s known as eustress.
Eustress is the type of stress that motivates us to do things when we need to. For example, eustress is the type of stress you experience when you have an exam coming up.
This may not feel very nice – but that stress is actually what stops you from spending all day sleeping and motivates you to get up and revise.
Studies show that people with no stress response don’t succeed as well in life. And end up letting their talents go to waste.
This is something to note next time you need a kick up the rear – just remind yourself why what you’re doing is important and why you need to focus on it.
If you can do this, then you can tap into the positive power of stress and stop seeing it as your enemy.
The rest of the time? Just try to distance yourself from that stress response and tell your body ‘thanks but no thanks’. If you remind yourself why you don’t need to be stressed, often this is enough to do it! healtylife.digitalexplorer.web.id/stress-isnt-always-bad-...
