On Memorial Day I would like to honor everyone who has fought in the wars for this country.

And ponder the costs. 'An eye for an eye that makes the whole world blind'.

Sharing a tanka prose that was published in the Pan Haiku review summer 2024. Many thanks to editor Alan Summers for accepting this piece

Hamburgers and Hotdogs

There is a robin's nest on the porch, with three blue eggs in it. The parent birds fly away to the nearest branch every time I step out, but they keep up a continuous squawking, possibly anxiety, possibly threatening the intruder (me) with dire consequences in case I mess with the eggs. Once I got too close and one of them swooped down in a mad rush of red and brown feathers ...

we fly flags
and fire up the grills
on Memorial Day...
every parent's tears
the same color of blood

How does acupuncture work?? Here is a very interesting article that suggests that the interstetium, or fascia, which was once considered mere packaging material, is increasingly being considered as an organ, playing a pivotal role in acupuncture!

The detection of another circulatory system in the human body could have enormous scientific implications.

🚶‍♀️ Just 5 extra minutes of walking daily at an average pace can make a HUGE difference!

💡 Research shows it may reduce the risk of death by nearly 10%.
That’s what we call a **big bang for the buck**—a small effort with massive health rewards!

🌱 Start today: add a short walk after meals, take the stairs, or stroll while on calls.
Your heart, mind, and future self will thank you. 💖

Many thanks to Dr.Sandeep Saluja for sharing this study.

Small and realistic increases in MVPA of 5 min/day might prevent up to 6% of all deaths in a high-risk approach and 10% of all deaths in population-based approach. Reducing sedentary time by 30 min/day might prevent a smaller, but still meaningful, proportion of deaths in the two risk scenarios.
