It is good when everyone 'fits nice' they just need to find the correct medium to do it by ; ( and a one and a two .... ) Oh , a lion hunter in the jungle dark and a sleeping drunkard up in central park, and a Chinese dentist and a British Queen all fit together in the same machine. Nice , nice , very nice Nice , nice , very nice Nice , nice , very nice So many people in the same device !

Mmmm - hmmm . Mmmmm .... yep . Whoa there ! Quantum leap ! In any case I assure you the 2nd part of that can occur without the first part ! Nah ... that just how some people think karma works .

You probably know this but others may not - We have our very own 'real' 'plague star ' ; B Bersius - ' Algol ' In the constellation Perseus , who is depicted with sword in one hand and the severed head of medusa in the other , Algol is in the centre of the forehead of the decapitated Medusa, an eclipsing binary; every 68 hours and 49 minutes this Demon Star ‘blinks’ for roughly 8 hours as the dimmer star of the pair passes between the brighter and the earth. Arabians' Ra's al Ghul, the Demon's Head, latin - Caput Larvae, the Spectre's Head. Hebrew - Algol as Rosh ha Satan, Satan's Head, Rosch hassatan, the Divels head; but also as Lilith, Chinese - Tseih She, the Piled-up Corpses. The most unfortunate, violent, and dangerous star in the heavens; ~ Of the nature of Saturn and Jupiter. It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens. Poor teeth. Brutality and violence. Arabic commanders in chief, in times of conquest, made it a point that no important battles were begun when the light of Algol was weak (Algol is an eclipsing binary - every 68 hours and 49 minutes the demon ‘blinks’ for roughly 8 hours as the dimmer star of the pair passes between the brighter and the earth). If culminating: Murder, sudden death, beheading, prone to murder and mischief. If at the same time in conjunction with Sun, Moon or Jupiter, gives victory over others in war. With the Hyleg and angular, decapitation or a murderer who meets with a violent death. With Fortuna or its dispositor, poverty. With Sun: Violent death or extreme sickness. If also in no aspect to a benefic, or there is no benefic in the 8th house, and the dispositor of the Sun in a day nativity or if the Moon in the night one is in square or opposition to Mars, the native will be beheaded; if the luminary culminate he will be maimed, mangled, wounded or torn to pieces alive; and if Mars is at the same time in Gemini or Pisces his hands or feet will be cut off. With Moon: Violent death or extreme sickness. With Mars: or if Mars be elevated above the luminaries when Algol is angular, the native will be a murderer who will come to an untimely end. The same is caused by Algol angular or with the hyleg. With Mars or Saturn: and the Moon at the same time with Sadalmelik (2 Pisces), hanging or decapitation by royal command; if the Moon is with Denebola (20 Virgo), death by judicial sentence; and, if the Moon is with Alfard (26 Leo) death by water or poison.

I like pseudo science articles that contain their own debunking

Well ... it helped me get to the top ...... being white and part of a culture that has all the guns and power has nothing to do with it though ... it was all those 'other peoples' sins that make them suffer now .... I must have been such a great guy .... before ! Chin chin (and I shall hide the horrid descriptive picture for the unawares )

I meant these ' Golden Shallots' of 'French Shallots ' but golden or 'normal' onion color . Is this what you thought ? It is confusing here , shallots can also mean ' scallions ' .... urrrgh ! (no, that isnt a 'glitch in the Matrix ' ) But what you seem to be describing is the way 'chives' grow ? I grew them once, they kept growing for years , spread, had to dig them out and ...... massive root clump ! left a big hole in the ground ( first attempt I just turned them upside down, roots up on the clump and covered it, they regrew ! ) Hmmm .... I gotta get this straight .... the Chinese know their vegies well - chive n. 香葱,细香葱;韭黄shallot n. 葱scallion n. 青葱,冬葱;韭葱spring onion 葱;(英)大葱;生吃的小洋葱 : Chives are a herb - we only eat the part that grows above ground ie we eat the shoots not the bulbs. The part we eat looks like dark green grass with thin tubular shoots. You'd typically cut chives into small pieces and sprinkle on top of a dish just before serving to give a fresh, onion taste. Sour cream and chives is a popular topping for baked potatoes.Spring onions and scallions are alternative names for the same thing. We tend to say spring onions in Britain and scallions in the US. They have a small white bulb and long shoots which are white at the base and dark green at the tips. You can eat them raw in salads, or cooked in Asian-style stir-fries.Shallots are small onions, maybe 5 cm long by 3 cm wide, often reddish in colour. As with ordinary onions, we only eat the bulbs of shallots.

Has anyone here grown ' Golden Shallots' of 'French Shallots ' or something similar ? My winter garlic has poked through the munch with green tips ..... but the shallot bulbs .... nt a trace, not even a new root coming out the bottom ?
-
Its a different situation down here , we just had another small scale incident BUT like the last one , the guy has a known long term record of criminal violence, abuse, ice addiction and links with terrorist organisations , got caught several times, did time in jail a few times (ever since he got here as a kid apparently ) , then was let out on parole ! The last one was even issued a gun license ! WTF ? ! So the confidence in authorities is very lacking.

Anyone need an easy to make cheap, dry composting toilet design ? Or a great method and recipe for bio-dynamic compost ? Last time I made it , it was amazing , unlike any other compost I have made - I stuck my hand in, grabbed some and pulled it out and a clump nearly as big as soccer ball came out .... very light and fluffy and cohesive , light and moist but not wet , similar to 'coir peat ' . It usually looks like this, with 'clumps' this size or smaller
-
Nooooo .... number twos ... from my home made dry composting toilet system . Number ones just end up on the grass outside or poured onto the compost pile . and the 2nd olive barrel is already full . .... and I dont drink beers . But you got my name right
-
And the rest ...... I have 2 large olive barrels full and 1 3/4 full of 'number twos' , paper and cane mulch . Soon I will have to open barrel 1 and empty it and start using that again. Gawd , I hope its well composted ! (It weighs a ton ! ) The plan is to spread it over an old disused bed, dig it in, plant comfrey, yarrow nettle chamomile, etc and other good plants for compost. Harvest the plants, make compost out of that and use that on the food garden.

Tourism , thats why, people love going and looking at these sort of formations . Hopefully then went around the better ones and preserved them. In Namibia there are similar places , and climate, the road base ( and surface) there is made by layering sand and salt and watering it and rolling it , successively .... seems to last years , when worn, more salt and sand and water and rolling . Ends up sorta vitrified looking .
-
....... smash them up and use as road base ???

Crystal mountain - white desert ' It should once be put right, that the crystals from the known Crystal Mountain (28° 26' E and 27° 39' N) between the oasis Bahariya and Farafra, northern of the White Desert, are no Quartz crystals. They are probably Barite (Schwerspat, BaSO4) and/or Calcite crystals (Kalkspat, CaCO3), which to ascertain at the hardness of the crystals easily. Quartz (SiO2) has the hardness 7, Barite and Calcite the hardness 3.5-3.0 (Mohs-scale). Quartz crystal can scratch glass, Barite or Calcite can it not. The origin of this Crystal Mountain is interesting. The hill was opened during works at the road from Farafra to Bahariya by chance and destroyed in part. The material was installed into the road. Today is the Crystal Mountain a popular stop for the tourists. Still more interesting is the geological context. The hill is not a paleokarst cave with columnar-shaped stalagmites. It is a subvolcanic vault, which was emerged probably during the Oligocene age. The visible layers are e.g. White Desert limestone of the Khoman Fm.* (Late Cretaceous age), as well as a younger coal seam and hydrothermal impregnated reddish to brownish ferruginous layers. The strata are broken or brecciated and intensely with each other folded. It is to be ascertained intense heat. The coal seam e.g. was transformed to anthracite (?). The crystals have increased out of climbed hydrovolcanic solutions. The hot solutions were high concentrated with BaSO4 and/or CaCO3, which had been solved from the sediments. The solutions have penetrated into all cavities. After cooling of the solutions the crystals could increase. It were formed columns or round domes with crystals within. http://www.b14643.de/Sahara/Crystal-Mountain/

Indeed ... that hand position ! I have seen it work to get past a boxer and he didnt worry about it as no power available ... until it poked him in the eye - that stopped him - he was not ready for that ! and 'boxer' was known to be one punch knock out street fighter, bit of a bully ... later he goes; ' Dont spar with that guy, he mad , he poked me in the eye ! ' Thing was , boxer asked the guy to 'spar' him twice and he said no ( he was not sure what 'spar' meant ? ) but he just went ahead and started doing it anyway !
