Whaaattt?

Our daughter has had to stop using their local corner shop for emergency pints of milk. Too often, the milk would go off before it’s sell by date. Same shop that also had items on the shelves past their sell by date. Sloppy care, probably should be closed down. It’s annoying though that what should be a useful local facility can’t be run properly. I think they must make a lot of their profit on vapes, and I’d bet money on under the counter cheap tobacco products.
I used to love cod liver oil and malt. My mum would buy it in huge jars, and dole out spoonfuls to us. I remember the bottles of orange juice free from the clinic, we didn’t have that very often, and it had a rather peculiar taste.

 

It is ... not least because the technology can be used anywhere against anyone, not just on a "battlefield". Whether autonomous weapons should be banned altogether has been under discussion for at least a decade with no decision made.

 

What ever it was, standards are now very poor in this country, i'm sad that we as a country have let this happen

 

Just read on the internet that US is considers lifting more sanction on russian oil,
What a turn around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what a mucking Fess

 

BDH developed the Analar (Analytical Reagent Grade) standards for chemical reagents. I have their 1949 Analar Standards for Laboratory Chemicals with a description of all the tests for each Analar reagent supplied by BDH. Analar reagents are still available from VWR based in Loughborough and part of Merck.
Other chemical suppliers developed similar standards for the chemicals they supplied to laboratories.
The other thing BDH were notable for was the development of liquid crystals for the first liquid crystals displays this was in conjunction with the University of Hull and the Royal Radar Establishment Malvern.
Apparently the MOD made £100 million in royalties from related patents.

 

Warning: extremely upsetting info. How the dairy industry works.

Is it all a sort of deadly chess "game" between the US and China, with Trump being used as a fronting puppet? So ... China has been gaining power, the US has been losing it. Iran supplies China with a lot of very cheap oil as it has nowhere much else to sell it. Scupper Iran, or ideally make it pivot towards the West, and China has a problem. Was Venezuela from the same playbook?

Whatever, it is a few powerful people wrecking millions of lives ... as per!

 

Apparently multiple female tennis players, some in the top 100, have received WhatsApp messages telling them to lose matches or they and their families will be at risk, along with photos of their relatives and guns.

What has the world come to?

 

@Bluejayway link doesn't work.

 

Having terrible trouble with that link @NigelJ , have taken some screenshots instead but they won't upload either.

Basically it's the old, old story of how cows are impregnated over and over again in order to maintain their milk production. Calves are forcibly removed from the mother after birth as they are now surplus to requirements and some cows have been filmed running after the trucks taking them away. This is only the tip of the iceberg of course. It's a barbaric industry.

 

Probably related to the word secure in the link.

That was what I expected, I have little time for PETA these days.
