This is a link post Curry!
Right, this may be a bit spammy, but I love curry and until now I have never found a curry paste that does quick home curry making any justice.

These pastes are f'king wonderful, dead simple to use - following the basic guide on the label will have you a truly surprisingly awesome curry in no time.

I met this lady a few times now at our local food festival thingy and thought I best share, but held back on spam principles; but now she has a free recipe download, so it's not all spam it's a link to a free recipe guide. (Getting the recipe download is a bit convoluted, mind you, as they havn't got a real website man yet seemingly)

Let me know what you think! I normally add extra onions and some peppers and a touch more of yoghurt, the trick I find is to slowly sweat and brown the onions and keep it nice n thick throughout. The recipe in the package is literally 3 stage :)

But it's a right faff and the smell permeates everything for days and days - especially if you overcook the seeds slightly - easy to do on my shite electric top... But the risk is worth it when having people round. However, this paste is as good as any base I have ever made...

wouldn't eat fish, because so much fish is farmed which is destructive on a crazy scale. It actually takes many fish to feed a single farmed fish, so it's actually insane.

That was his point anyway, made sense.

Add that the disease and pollution that comes with the intense monocultures of fish farms. It's a terrible terrible ting *tut tut* terrible.

This is a normal post You Have To Give It To Them...
they have balls, and tits, of steel.

Pretty much everyone who has ever heard of them hates their guts already. But they thrive on twisting the law in their favor. They rely on the 1st Amendment which says:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances"

And then they sue the fuck out of any town/county/state that abrogates their right to freely assemble outside of the funeral of a dead soldier or, in this case, murdered kids. They also sue the fuck out of the police fail if they fail to protect them. And they win, most of the time, because lawfully, they're fucking right.....

But I can fantasize, hope for, dream - that the next person who goes postal in Newtown does it to these pricks. And then pleads justifiable homicide and insists on a jury trial.

Cos I can't see any jury, anywhere in America, voting to convict...

Bleh..

This is a normal post Incidentally:
I'm having trouble getting YouTube to behave with Safari. I can watch embedded vids here, but the site itself refuses to load them: I get all the accoutrements, but a black box where the viewing panel should be.

Any suggestions about what's gone squiffy? It all seemed fine until a couple of days ago...

This is a link post Unjammable radar
Its Monday morning, and your brains are probably all fried from the weekend, but here's an interesting idea for defeating radar jamming techniques.

Or if that's too much to cope with this time of the morning, here's a kitten.

This is a normal post Not necessarily
At least not because of this. Remember stealth planes aren't completely invisible even today - as was demonstrated in the Balkans.

This is a link post Hello from a piss puddle, a spot of electronic pop. Produced by Diamond Duggal. I made this!
I've been helping Sofie Guillois Larsen alias Hi World with some lyrics for her new electronica project. There's also a xmas song...

I confess the genre is not my favourite, but hopefully there are a few people here that appreciate these sounds.

That would have made it alright.

This is a normal post Boring but relevant
I've worked in newspaper ad departments. From the point of view of the page planners (the people who stick ads in the paper) they're just spaces with serial numbers. You stick a 15 x 2 ad in on page 20, and that's all you know, rather than knowing that you're sticking a gun ad next to an article about a school shooting.

Of course, ideally you would check, but when editions are being closed late because of a big breaking news story or last minute advertising demand, there isn't time to thoroughly check the context of every ad versus the page content.

TLDR: It's probably some stressed newspaper employee on a deadline trying to fit ads into the edition without paying attention to where they are going to run.

This is a normal post As editor
"Multiple editors worked on the page and should have noticed the problem" is a bit of a cop out. Ultimately, the managing editor is responsible for what is/isn't published.

Even if the magazine was at the presses, there would have been time to pull that advert. It would have cost a small fortune, but surely that expense would have been better than tarnishing a newspaper's reputation.

I once had to 'apologise' for something that was published that I knew nothing about and was someone else's 'fault'. But ultimately I had bite my lip and take the flak, because I'm the so-called 'editor' - and I should have noticed. However, I *never* would have published an apology implying that others working on the page should have noticed the problem.

I also wonder how many similar adverts the newspaper regularly publishes?

This is a normal post This doesn't surprise me, it's just capitalism, there's no morality judgement in making a profit.
Until they figure out there's no difference between shooting a load of foreign kids and shooting their own kids they ain't going to change.

the level of sadness and anger i have experienced in the last few days, it will probably just result in me crying again... i would like to say one thing then i am gone again. one small town newspaper in SC does not represent America. yes it is fucked up. what occurred on friday is indescribably awful... but to everyone judging an entire country and its society as a whole please stop. i cant take anymore horribleness. :(

I'll agree with you that there has been too much American bashing going on over this.
