@lou if you look up legendary Canadian cuisine, it all seems to come from Quebec - how on earth can they like soggy chips with gravy and cheese!? poutine? Yuk! But it somehow seems an appropriate accompaniment to the dishes displayed here
@op Aldous Huxley - the scene that sticks in my mind is from Eyeless in Gaza - the dog thrown from the plane - kersplunk. Almost 70 years since I read it but there is the memory! Far more vivid than the Alphas and Betas Here from a vanished hero of mine:
I think most governments, including your own, are making serious efforts to reduce methane from livestock and agriculturehttps://www.dcceew.gov.au/climate-change/emissions-reduction/agricultural-land-sectors/livestock
Beef Wellington was the first dish I cooked for my then girlfriend and her children in New Zealand way back in about 1970, I was using a famous french cook book. I made the mistake of making the puff pastry myself, and that was a disaster, not knowing how to keep it cold enough. Lunch took place after 3:30pm ... but the beef itself was amazing!
Ah, I see you have mislaid one of my erudite comments, alas. But never mind, I just happen to have a copy so I can thoughtfully restore it for you. Now there's a doozy worthy of note! Well in Australia we have implemented NDIS - National Disability Insurance Scheme - which can indeed provide carers with respite relief. It can be hard indeed for the carers to accept and avail themselves of such respite. Referring to your 8 and 40 year sentences, it is worthwhile reflecting that both carer and afflicted are often sentenced for life. I too had hitherto seen few or no threads about mental illness.
I see the moderator comment about 50 pages is patently inaccurate. The 'some things that are old' blog is unlocked at 80 pages, but the 'Merc here lately' blog has been moderator locked at 82 pages. Just do a sort on the 'order by comments' heading. In fact there have been less unexplained disappearances just these last few days, the one of mine 'disappeared' is quite explicable due to ill-concealed expletives. The Canuck Jesus blog, currently in fourth place, sadly has only reached 25 pages so we can expect to see it getting bumped for another two or three years!
This is a global problem and Britain has the advantage of distance-filter compared with Greece Italy Spain France. There seems to be no humane solution. Australia has the advantage of being an island continent, but they too have stuffed up with inhumane refugee policies. I have no answer, but compassion surely is the right way.
Congratulate? Come off it! It was obvious they were 50 runs shy of a challenging total, and I had placed Eng at 2:1 to win with 250 to chase. Did you congratulate the 5-zip loss in Australia? Did I congratulate the Botham 1981 victory in England? Not bloody likely!!!
Here now is the best time to see Aurora Australis - mid-winter months. Rarely if ever seen as far north as Sydney, but in Tasmania, even the great south road, yes quite visible. I suppose if there is sun activity giving rise to Aurora Borealis, Aurora Australis is also likely to be visible, particularly in this winter season.
you're joking! Well if not, you are certainly laughable! check up some of the other youtubes - check up for the key words 'bairstow stumping hypocrisy' Plenty of hits, several blatant occasions and from his own mouth 'all within the rules'
Such issues have been flogged to death in many blogs already, but your thread, by its title refers to charges and accusations levelled against China of sheltering HK refugees, or have you forgotten?
Shen yun is operated by, affiliated with, support and is supported by, Falun Gong Dafa. Epoch Times promote them. Shen yun, Falun gong, and Epoch times are all explicitly anti CCP. I have been tricked into attending a Shen yun performance, saw their pro Falun gong anti-CCP propaganda (the dancers carry banners while dancing, declaring 'Falun Gong GOOD, CCP bad') and walked out at interval. I am not going to sit by watching propaganda paraded as ART!
You might like to keep in mind that England for 130+ years operated a virtual police state and definitely an undemocratic state in Hong Kong right up till the 80's at which point, realising how their government of HK would appear to the world, they started to relax their control leading up to the hand-back.
The spirit of the game... The success of both bowling line-ups in using bouncers makes it almost certain that short-ball assaults are here to stay this series – even if it was slammed as ‘dull and boring’. Macpherson wrote: “Even before that burst, there had already been more bouncers in this Test than any other in England since records began. We should expect to see plenty more of it in this series, which could become the Bodyline of our time.”
