  1. You mean like Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, etc? Their forecasting abilities are second to none!
  2. I don't believe any of us will be remembered after a couple of generations have passed. We are just not that important. For instance, both of my parents are now dead. I remember them. My daughter will remember them (although my Mam died when my daughter was only 4 years old). My granddaughters will remember only my Dad, who died recently in January, but the point I am making is who will remember them after that? We are all steeped in our own importance but in reality this is just a fleeting thing, gone in the blink of an eye, as time passes by relentlessly. Forget about making a lasting impression and just live life to the full, it can end at any time.
  3. Crypto is just a fake creation designed to dissuade people from buying tangible precious metals, and now they are starting the closure of crypto-friendly banks where will that leave crypto investors? Not to worry though, I have been assured you will all 'be happy and own nothing!'
  4. The escape velocity required to leave Earth is approx 25,000 mph, whereas the escape velocity required to leave the Moon is a lot smaller, at approx 5,300 mph.

  6. ‘Anti-Vaxxer’ Nurse Struck Off Register By Nursing Council Published on March 9, 2023 Written by Gemma Mitchell A nurse who denies the existence of Covid-19 and discourages people from getting vaccinated has been struck off the nursing register A Nursing and Midwifery Council fitness-to-practise panel determined that Kay Shemirani – more commonly known as Kate Shemirani – was no longer a safe or effective nurse. It also concluded that her behaviour had fallen “seriously short of the standards expected of a registered nurse and amounted to misconduct”. Despite the outcome of the case, Nursing Times has learnt that Ms Shemirani plans to continue to call herself a nurse and wear her nurse uniform. Ms Shemirani, who at the time of the hearing was an aesthetic nurse and independent prescriber in East Sussex, has become a prominent anti-vaccination campaigner and denier of Covid-19, and has spoken at protests. The NMC panel heard how Ms Shemirani had “actively discouraged people from wearing masks, adhering to social distancing, and taking vaccinations”. Ms Shemirani had also made “derogatory” comments about other nursing and health professionals, according to the NMC document outlining the reasons for her striking off. It said Ms Shemirani had described nurses as being “complicit in genocide” and “criminals and liars”, and had suggested that nine out of every 10 nurses were “crap”. While the conduct occurred outside of the nursing environment, the panel believed Ms Shemirani had used her professional status as a registered nurse to promote and support her views. It determined that Ms Shemirani had placed members of the public at “serious risk of harm” and had brought the reputation of the nursing profession into disrepute. “Removing the registrant from the NMC register is the only sanction that is sufficient to protect members of the public and ensure public confidence and trust in the professions is maintained,” it added. Ms Shemirani has 28 days to appeal the decision and, in the meantime, has been placed under an interim suspension order. However, Ms Shemirani told Nursing Times that she did not plan to appeal and would continue to call herself a nurse, regardless. She noted that it was “registered nurse” that was a protected title and not simply “nurse” – a fact that causes concern among some in the profession, as previously reported by Nursing Times. Nursing Times asked Ms Shemirani if she planned to continue to practise as a nurse, even though she was no longer registered. She said: “I don’t need to be a nurse to practise aesthetics, and I don’t need to be a nurse to use my diploma in personal nutrition. But I am a nurse and I will state I am a nurse.” She also said that she planned to continue to wear her uniform when she attended rallies in London this month. Meanwhile, she claimed she had been subjected to a “kangaroo court” and that she, herself, had “resigned” from the NMC during the proceedings and requested her £120 yearly fee back. “They state that when you’re under investigation, you cannot resign, and I understand why that would be,” added Ms Shemirani. “However, they [the NMC] had broken due process in the case against me, which was unfair, which they didn’t follow their own guidelines, which was a kangaroo court,” she claimed. Nursing Times put Ms Shemirani’s comments to the NMC but the regulator said it had nothing further to add at this stage beyond the conclusions of the panel. See more here nursingtimes.net

  8. Biggles to the rescue!
  9. Far better to start a worthy career by learning how to make useful things: wooden clubs, bows and arrows, flint axes, spears, ... WWIII is a-coming and, assuming you survive, everyone left will be needing your skills!
  10. And why has no reasonable explanation yet been expounded as to why there were virtually NO FLU DEATHS during the Covid years? COVID = FLU! Simple!
  11. Well, maybe Peter, but not necesssarily, as that spoof logo could have been injected by a hacker and later removed. These things do happen.
  12. Nah! That's fake. Here's the link to the website and that logo appears nowhere on the site ... https://www.airdomainintelligence.mil/ Notice the .mil in the address. This denotes that the site is real as only the military are allowed to use the .mil domain name extension. Here's another spoof seal ...
  13. I fry my chips in a good old-fashioned chip pan using lard or beef dripping. Have done all my life with no ill effects and better than any other chips I've tasted. I never use olive oil. If I make an omelette I fry it in a small amount of butter.

    The best way to evade most algorithms is to place your text in an image ... Not the quickest way to do things, and not always suitable, but great for bypassing text-scanning algos.

    I think correct punctuation is more important... 'Let's eat, Grandma.' 'Let's eat Grandma.'
