There are two versions of this at hand … this one had the “cracklier” sound but the better picture, the other the reverse. On the other hand, I’ve had a report that some films are not crossing the ocean well. This might also be so for songs … imagine going to that trouble and some readers across the oceans or our ditch can’t watch them.
(1129) Another burst of “news”. (1139)
15. More horror for the ladies (and for some of us men too, just quietly)

14. Tell us about it, Sophie

13. Burnham’s “uplift on death”

12. Vaxx death

11. Russia parliamentary elections

Another claim to have the solution … worth it just for the detail, either way.
(0817) Morning again. Major post up at OoL and Jstack. (0831)

(0514) Dark out there. (0551) Becoming sort of light, dark, wall to wall clouds. (0557)
5. One for Brits

4. Steve at 1469
3. Dearborn and Minneapolis
The first is about the bikers protecting the protest march (apparently Christian protest march) … item later on that … the second, about Chauvin … why now? Another question is why not now … yes … but why now?


2. DAD right on cue at 1469
a) Iran has assessed options for attacking US military assets in Europe should the US escalate its confrontation with Tehran, according to people close to the Iranian regime cited by the Financial Times.
b) Rome clashes with Berlin over German NGOs helping Illeg@l Migration
Italy argues that Germany demands that Italy assume responsibility because it was the first European country of entry, while German organisations such as Sea-Watch, Sea-Eye, SOS Humanity and Mission Lifeline have spent years carrying out operations in the central Mediterranean and subsequently disembarking those they rescue at Italian ports.
c) ‘I have trouble behaving around girls’ – Palestinian migrant convicted for sexually assaulting 15-year-old French girl on a bus While testifying in court, Ahmed said he was attracted to her “at first sight.”
d) Wartime elections are demanded in the Ukraine.
Pressure that elections be held in war-torn Ukraine is this time coming neither from Washington nor Moscow, but from within Ukraine’s own political system. Mykhailo Fedorov, dismissed as defence minister in July, has called on the country to find a way to return to the ballot box even while the war continues.
e) Former Fauci adviser pleads guilty to concealing documents on Covid origins.
1. Opening with an unusual one here
It was a meme asking where’s the Boeing 757?

(1534) Good mid afternoon, chaps and chapesses.
15. A cautionary tale
Scene is a Russian republic near the Volga, late 90s, approaching summer holidays, thousands booking their place in the camps, Butlinesque. Not cheap, even for two weeks, but it’s the annual hols, innit?
Someone in govt decides that hundreds of Somalian yoof will come for a six week holiday instead, so all resident bookings are cancelled, the various huts now to be full of Somalians. Citizens … no summer holiday, unless they have dachas, gardens.
Two weeks after they arrive, every last Somalian is out of the country. Wonder why. The Russkies must be creasing themselves with laughter over the US situation in 2026.
14. Farrar, Farage … similar sounding names
… but different dodginess.
13. Toxic mascuwimpishness

12. The cost of healthcare

11. Fraud and officialdom

10. Moo corner

9. Steve at OoL
Who could it be now?

8. Eggs and salmonella

Indeed … and why is free range not really free range but industrial?
7. The planned water crisis

6. Bad Enough, the anchor babe

Don’t know much about this one:
Steve had supplied The Norwood Builder but I understand it was not viewable outside of the UK … or at least not in North America. Maybe that will be so with this one too … The Dancing Men. It will take us through most of elevenses. Film this afternoon.
