If I'm informed correctly: - wheat flour degrades rather quickly; - unground wheat berries/kernels will last for many years if stored in airtight containers with the oxygen removed by dry ice or manufactured oxygen eliminator packets; - wheat has much more protein and other nutrients than (at least white) rice. Plain wheat kernels can be boiled to make a very nice grown-up cereal. My wife likes milk, honey, cinnamon, and/or butter on hers. I prefer plain milk on mine. If no milk is available, that's okay, too. The recipe can be adjusted for the size of batch being boiled, but the general idea is to combine 3 parts water for 1 part wheat kernels, bring to a boil, turn down the heat and let slow boil or simmer for ~45 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it continue to self-cook for 3-8 hours. A larger pan will hold heat longer, while a smaller pan will cool down more quickly, so cook times can be adjusted to get the preferred consistency. In my experience, boiled wheat can be left at room temperature for up to 24 hours before refrigerating it, but it starts to taste sour after a few days in the fridge if left at room temperature longer than about 24 hours before going in the fridge. If boiling is not possible, wheat can be eaten by putting some kernels in the mouth for a few minutes to let them soften enough for chewing. -- Robert Riches spamtrap42@jacob21819.net (Yes, that is one of my email addresses.)

I can remember when meat was ground on demand from identifiable pieces of meat. A pound of 'ground round' was a bit different from today's super lean product that is only 15% fat. I draw the line at the 'chubs'.

The odd bit is THIS year the reports are almost ALL veggies. Salmonella in frozen blueberries. Eh ?

I didn't think you weren't aware of that. AFAIK no one imports eggs from Ukraine. Its outside the EU so they would be subject to tariffs and meeting EU standards Oh. The torygraph says we import MOST of our [imported] eggs from Ukraine. And so does the EU. Color me confused. Back in the day a chicken farmer AND MEP in the EU 'parliament' told me that the problem was that newly admitted nations like Romania and Bulgaria were given a free pass to help them get their hygiene in order, and that waiver was never rescinded. > https://www.foodagribusiness.world/poultry/russia-destroys-ukraines- > poultry-industry > > I don't eat much chicken but I did grill up some chicken thighs last > night.

Certainly I'm aware of that, just as I'm aware much of the MSM is either government or NGO propaganda. Compare the reports taking in consideration the biases and you may glimpse the real story. For example, while some of the articles became more balanced today's hot headline was "Russian strike near Kyiv kills 37, in one of the year's deadliest attacks" https://www.npr.org/2026/08/29/nx-s1-5948714/russian-strike-kyiv Dastardly attack on civilians! As the story got fleshed out it seems the Russians had hit a drone depot that was next to a home for elderly citizens. It's not clear how many of the personnel working in the depot were killed but as might be expected the facility, chock full of high explosives meant for Russian, blew up. Even Zelensky held a press conference promising to hunt down whoever made such a bad decision. It's not the first time civilians have been killed when an attack on a legitimate military target in a residential neighborhood wound up with dead civilians. You should be familiar with the process. The air attacks on Coventry's heavy industry did damage to the countryside, in part because of the success of the plan to decoy the bombers from the factories. That gave Lindemann and Bomber Harris the latitude to specifically bomb residential areas, dehousing, since it was easier to get rid of the civilian workforce than target heavily defended legitimate sites.

Its always about how well Russia is doing, and never about the fact that Russia is pretty much on the point of total collapse, threatening nuclear strikes on Britain. Probably the two best commentators are - surprisingly - Americans . Jake Broe and Paul Warburg on you tube.

The fact does remain that Russia bombs Ukraine indiscriminately with no regard for civilian life.

Ukrainian drones are hitting individual aircraft on runways and individual distillation towers in oil plants and individual Wildberry warehouses. Usually if there is any collateral damage it's because the drones were disabled first and debris fell on civilian areas. Russia no longer has access to Starlink, but Ukraine does. Putin is on the edge of being deposed. His 'elections' are due. He is desperate to be able to say 'NATO attacked us 'and we are winning in Ukraine'. But the banks have closed their doors and people cannot withdraw cash, there is no gasoline West of the Urals and not much diesel, 50% of the distilleries are out of action and nearly all Wildberries warehouses are gone. Putin is hitting civilians because his armaments are mostly crap. The ones that get through - the supersonic ballistic missiles - are simply not very accurate, and the subsonic drones are mostly being shot down, So they are going to miss. Putin doesn't care. He is a war criminal already and a few more civilian lives are not going to change that. Ukrainians at least want to be able to appear to be civilised after the war is over. -- It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled. Mark Twain

But on the other hand, business and prosperity require the mutual adoption of a set of rules that transcend the issues of immediate profit. E.g a nation that routinely confiscates goods destined for its citizens, will find that it is not profitable to do business with. It becomes isolated. You might call it North Korea. Businesses that do not keep to handshake contracts require legal ones and the means to enforce them,. At some point that makes them too expensive to do business with. Yes, I was all ready to sue the Ford Motor Company when unexpectedly they paid up. I had known people who had worked for them, so I was ready. Nations that think that everybody has to do business with them no matter what tariffs they impose, run by someone who pretends he was actually a business man, rather than a failed small time bully in the real estate business,are in for a shock. If you want to do business, you need a stable environment. Democracy or otherwise. That means keeping your word, to build trust and respect. No one trusts or respects the USA any more. Even Iran's leadership is laughing. But they don't have commercial ties. The rest of us are quietly untying them. -- "Women actually are capable of being far more than the feminists will let them."

I think this is in reference to the 1994 Trilateral Statement, which is not a particularly strong security assurance: it only applies in cases where nuclear weapons are used and the commitment is only to seek UN Security Council action. https://nsarchive.gwu.edu/document/30922-document-10-january-14-trilateral-statement-january-14-1994 (The flaw should have been apparent even at the time: Russia would veto any proposed UNSC action after nuking Ukraine.) > But we have come to understand that America never makes promises it > intends to keep. Unless there are further assurances somewhere, I don’t think the USA has broken a promise here by limiting its support for Ukraine (just made a serious mistake). -- https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/

The West has allowed the USA to sell it arms and run its defence policy on the understanding that all that money spent on US kit and US bases would actually mean something when the shit hit the fan, and that it would be supported, and work, if a threat to NATO countries were apparent. It turns out that like so much US hardware, it was junk, and would only work if the parent company let it, and could only be serviced by the parent company at huge expense. Think John Deere. Think Microsoft. And all that came out because a corrupt president who owed the Russians his whole existence, used his powers to stop it being used.

Swedes never really became Rus - at least not for 1500+ years. Different cultures. Different 'takes'. Those who became Rus - SUPER hard-asses. Never, ever, discount what they're willing do do for power/dominance. We've SEEN that in the 20th century, even a little before. Suffer massive MASSIVE casualties and pain to EVENTUALLY destroy the Foe. NEVER assume the Rus will act in what most of the world thinks is a 'sane' manner. That is not their culture and history. Vlad has burned up at LEAST half a million in his war against Ukraine. Russians don't even blink at that. Russia is NOT the UK or USA. HARD-asses in the old meaning.
