This is for all soulless, selfish,greedy warlords, past,present and future, whether they died in a bunker, presently live in or are building one: https://open.spotify.com/track/0Wj348T8WhKAgrntZi1OHS?si=OSWVBm8DR6-dlfZqgt3Bmg Thrones of Bones by NorViking Lyrics Once the generals stood in the front of battle Now those who speak of war sit far from the men And the earth remembers every grave they never saw In halls of gold end old, angry men They draw their borders wide Ink becomes a thousand graves before the truths arise Voices speak of honor still While thunder fills the sky But every war they promise is another mother's cry Listen to the restless oceans Listen to the iron rain Every empire built on fire Writes its history in pain Crowns of bones Thrones of swords Men who never face the blade still command the wars they make Crowns of bones Thrones of lies The generals take the parade while the nameless soldiers die The world does not need new warlords It needs peace for all Across the seas the old winds turn through mountains carved by time They whisper truth to anyone who dares to read the signs Power walks an unforgiving road No crown escapes the dust And those who gamble lives for honor will watch their kingdoms rust Hear the warning in the distance Hear the distant thunder call Those who rise through endless war Will one day lose it all Crowns of bones Thrones of swords Men who never face the blade still command the wars they make crowns of bones Thrones of lies The generals take the parade while the nameless soldiers die The world does not need new warlords It needs peace for all Let the banners fall to silence Let the fires fade away The greatest strength a nation holds Is chosing peace one day Crowns of bones Thrones of dust Power built on endless war Will crumble into rust crowns of bones Hear the call The world does not need new warlords It needs peace for all The greatest victory is not the war you win It is the war you refuse to begin

To listen to the music of Edvard Grieg (15 June 1843 – 4 September 1907) is to walk through the mist-shrouded valleys, rugged mountains, and fractured coastlines of nineteenth-century Norway. At a time when European classical music was heavily dominated by the structural and harmonic traditions of Germany, Grieg emerged as a revolutionary cultural force. He did not merely compose music; he translated the geography, folklore, and psychological identity of his homeland into a universal auditory language. #EdvardGrieg #ClassicalMusic #RomanticEra #MusicHistory #NorwegianComposer #PeerGynt #PianoConcerto #RomanticNationalism #Troldhaugen #NordicCulture #OrchestralMusic #Musicology #NineteenthCentury #PianoMusic #FolkTraditions

Nederlandse viroloog in VS aangeklaagd voor invoer mpox-virus https://t.co/ae1gy2sOCO Dit is wel grappig... Vincent Munster komt uit de school van Ab Osterhaus. Hij promoveerde onder Osterhaus en bleef daarna nog enkele jaren hangen als postdoc. In 2009 vertrok hij naar de Verenigde Staten om onderzoek te doen aan de Rocky Mountains Laboratories (RML). Begin 2020 schreef hij samen met @MarionKoopmans en een aantal andere auteurs een artikel over #SARSCoV2 in het NEJM. Maar het allerleukste is dit: Blijkbaar vertelde Koopmans op de achterbank tegen @pricklyresearch dat zij op deze manier Zika uit Brazilië gesmokkeld had. Zoals iedereen weet, is dat ook niet zo moeilijk. Kleine flesjes met vloeistof in de ruimbagage worden vrijwel nooit gecontroleerd en al helemaal niet op virusmateriaal. Ik vroeg me af of deze mensen ooit echt dit risico zouden willen nemen. Maar het antwoord is dus ja. En het maakt het verhaal van Edward Hammand een stuk geloofwaardiger. Hoe zegt men dat ook alweer? Goed voorbeeld doet goed volgen? https://t.co/Je9NsUhV77 #viroloog #virus #onderzoek

In eastern Oregon, fire chief Don Gabbard expresses concern about the unusually low snow accumulation in the Strawberry Mountains this winter, which might lead to an earlier and more intense wildfire season, while farmers worry about water shortages for irrigation due to insufficient snowmelt, highlighting the broader implications of a drier climate across the American West. #WildfireSeason #ClimateChange #WaterSupply #US #CA #OR #WA #CO

A late-season snowstorm in Colorado, dropping significant snowfall across the Rocky Mountains and bringing much-needed moisture, is unlikely to fully alleviate the state's record snow drought but will provide a temporary boost to the snowpack, which had reached critically low levels. #ColoradoWeather #SnowStorm #ClimateChange #US

Jonathan Rinderknecht, a 30-year-old Uber driver, is accused of intentionally igniting a fire in the Santa Monica Mountains, which escalated into the destructive Palisades fire linked to 12 fatalities and thousands of lost homes, with prosecutors suggesting his actions were fueled by a fascination with fire, resentment towards the wealthy, and a troubling obsession with a recent murder case he followed closely. #Arson #MentalHealth #WealthInequality #US #FR #IT #NY
