Lanliq, Four Crown etc were all South African wines and I feel the jakies must have heeded the call for a boycott of that country's produce and moved over to Colt 45, Thunderbird and super lager.

I once cleaned up the Clyde with several hundred others . The patch we were given was the under the railway bridge at the Briggait. That particular bit of the north bank of the Clyde was knee deep in Belair refill bottles. I believe it was consumed with milk to make it slightly palatable. As it was hair product (still available http://www.belairbeauty.com) it could be purchased outside of licensing hours and on a Sunday.

Refrigerator death

The examples and perspective in this article deal primarily with the United States and do not represent a worldwide view of the subject. Please improve this article and discuss the issue on the talk page. (June 2013)

Refrigerator death refers to death by suffocation in a refrigerator or similar device such as a freezer. Such deaths were not uncommon for children in the United States before the passage of the Refrigerator Safety Act in 1956.[1][2][3] Children would occasionally play in abandoned refrigerators and become trapped because the doors were secured shut by latches that could only be opened by the handle on the outside. The first reactions to the deaths were to ask people not to abandon refrigerators and to detach the doors of unused refrigerators. In the mid to late 1950s troops of people would sometimes search out abandoned refrigerators, detaching the doors and smashing the locks. However, these efforts were not entirely effective, and children were still dying inside of refrigerators that had not been found and dismantled. The continued occurrence of refrigerator deaths led to a law that required a change in the way refrigerator doors stay shut. The act applied to all refrigerators manufactured in the United States after October 31, 1958, and is largely responsible for the adoption of the magnetic mechanism that is used today instead of a latch.[1]

The number of deaths due to suffocation in refrigerators declined a statistically significant amount in the years after the law.[4][5][6]

The problem with children suffocating in the appliances was well-known. At least as early as 1954, alternative methods of securing air-tight closure had been suggested, e.g., in patent 2767011, filed by Francis P. Buckley et al. in 1954 and issued in 1956.[7]

The Refrigerator Safety Act is codified at 15 U.S.C. 1211 1214) as Public Law 84-930, 70 Stat. 953, August 2, 1956.[8]

Individual American states also have similar laws, such as California's.[9]

as a deeply lazy person who often just taps the fridge door, safe in the knowledge that the merest contact between door and the main part of the fridge will be sufficient to close it, the knowledge that many babies had to die in order for this historical progress to be realized is somewhat disturbing

JOHN BORSTLAP SAYS:
August 29, 2014 at 1:53 pm

A breath of common sense… finally…. all this talk about mr B being one of the figureheads of “the living tradition of serious classical music” reads like the rantings from a lunatic asylum. Postwar modernism cut itself off from whatever tradition was still living then, and created a quite independent tradition, with its own aesthetic norms which are fundamentally different from music. Not so difficult to see / hear that. For the ‘original works’ of mr B, or mr F, or any other modernist, a different festival would be more appropriate. (By the way, ‘originality’ is, in itself, not an artistic category, lunatics or criminals can be very original too.) Modernism does not belong in the proms, which is a music festival. The BBC could organise a sonic art festival alongside the proms & thus create a better context for such works.

Nonsense Criteria

As Borstlap charged in his suit against the Fund, its "experts" are all drawn from the narrow community of avant-garde composers, programmers, and performing groups who have themselves received grants. It is, he argued, an isolated, self-referential world, which employs "nonsense criteria." Their idea of musical "originality," he reported, is exemplified by the work of John Cage--best known for his piece 4'33" [more], in which no music is played and listeners hear only the ambient chance sounds of the performance space.(1)

In his initial court proceedings, Borstlap cited as yet more damning evidence of the Fund's nonsensical mindset the experience of his fellow composer Eduard de Boer (pen name: Alexander Comitas). In 2006, de Boer, whose relations with the Fund had been strained during the 1990s, submitted a piece entitled Bubbles. It was awarded 3,000 euros by the Fund, which noted that it "surpassed" the composer's customary output with respect to its "idiom."

What the Fund didn't know was that the piece was a hoax. De Boer had "created" it based on his two young sons' random pounding on a keyboard--which he then translated by entirely arbitrary, mechanical transformations into a playable score for ten instruments.

When confronted with that information, Borstlap says, the Fund was not in the least fazed. In its view such an approach was, as he puts it, "a perfectly normal composing procedure" (including, presumably, the part played by de Boer's children). Perfectly normal, that is, within the mad mindset of the avant-garde musical world.

that boulez comment has the same blustering righteous tone as a virgil thomson from the 1917 nyt

I must tell you that Ireland is one of the worst and most unfavourable countries in which to carry on warfare; it abounds in deep forests and in lakes and bogs, and much of it is uninhabitable. It is often impossible to come to grips with the people, for they are quite ready to desert their towns and take refuge in the woods, and live in huts made of branches, or even among the bushes and hedges, like wild beasts.... They have pointed, two- edged knives, with broad blades, and they never regard an enemy as dead until they have cut his throat, like a sheep.... They never allow prisoners to be ransomed, and when they have the worst of any skirmish, they scatter and hide in hedges or bushes, or underground, and seem to disappear without trace.1

Supporters of most of the major GOP candidates agree with the basic premise that Islam should be legal in the United States- it's 59/21 with Cruz voters, 67/11 with Bush voters, and 77/10 with Rubio voters. Trump supporters are off on their own on that one too though- just 33% think Islam should be legal to 42% who think it should be illegal. Overall 53% of primary voters think Islam should be allowed to just 26% who don't think it should be.

Legend has it that while the revolutionary leaders were being executed, Austrian generals were drinking beer and arrogantly clinking their beer mugs together in celebration of Hungary's defeat.

Hungarians thus vowed never to clink glasses while drinking beer for 150 years thereafter[citation needed]. There is no explanation for the specified timeframe of 150 years. Although theoretically discontinued on October 6, 1999,[4] in practice, this tradition continued for about a decade after. Throughout Hungary, the clinking of beer mugs or bottles was considered to be bad manners. By 2000s, most Hungarians began to click to their beer mugs – as in the rest of Europe – with little or no hesitation. The exception being of course a handful of openly patriotic citizens that vow to never forget.

At one point he is quoted as blurting out, unexpectedly, "When in doubt, fuck." It also includes a statement near the end from the interviewer, Camilla Long, that I believe is without precedent even in the giddy history of the celebrity profile:

I...feel quite certain that he would willingly show me his penis, given slightly different circumstances and a bucket of champagne.

"Wow," says Fassbender when I recite this to him. "No, I haven’t read that one. Just as well, really." But he does remember the interview. "The first thing she said to me was, ’So, what does it feel like to have a big cock?’ That was her opening question."

And as for her bold assertion about what he might’ve done?

"I don’t think I would touch her with a barge pole."

Mr. Cruz became devoted to Mr. Luttig, whom Mr. Cruz has described as “like a father to me.” During his clerkship, he presented his boss with a caricature of him and other clerks pulling a stagecoach driven by the judge. According to someone who saw the illustration, there was a graveyard behind them with headstones representing the number of people executed in their jurisdiction that year.

The year Mr. Cruz and the others clerked, many of the roughly 80 cases taken up by the justices made major news. For a case about the constitutionality of a law regulating Internet pornography, Mr. Cruz watched X-rated sex scenes on a computer with Chief Justice Rehnquist and Justice O’Connor.

Although Rebatet continued to proclaim his adherence to fascism until his death, his antisemitism became less pronounced after the war[citation needed], showing even admiration for the State of Israel.

In February 1944, while Céline was having dinner in the German embassy in Paris with his friends Jacques Benoist-Méchin, Pierre Drieu La Rochelle and Gen Paul, he asserted to German ambassador Otto Abetz that Hitler was dead and had been replaced by a Jewish double.[21]

His wife, Joanna, said in a statement: “It is with heartbroken sadness I let you know that my husband, Henry Worsley, has died following complete organ failure; despite all efforts of ALE [Antarctic Logistics and Expeditions] and medical staff at the Clinica Magallanes in Punta Arenas, Chile.”

The former lieutenant colonel, walking in temperatures of -44C, through white-out blizzards and over treacherous ice, had passed the South Pole when he needed help. He had covered 913 miles, with just 30 miles to go.

Happy Science teaches that human beings reincarnate again and again into the Earth for a soul training. That is, it reveals what Heidegger could not explain, namely, “the meaning of humans being thrown into the world.” Furthermore, it teaches that humans return to the spirit realm according to how they lived their lives, so they should refine their souls for spiritual growth so that they can return to the higher level of the real world. Happy Science teachings have transcended Heideggerian philosophy in clearly explaining the purpose and meaning of life.

On the other hand, it differs from such shallow positive thinking as “if you think about it, it will come true.” It teaches “the creation of future” after understanding everything about the mechanisms of fate and environment that Heidegger analyzed. In this sense, Heideggerian philosophy can be said to be the flesh and blood of Happy Science teachings.

The spirit of Heidegger also stated that he has high hopes for Happy Science on the political front as well. He likened the huge confusion that will be brought about by China with the “Pandora’s Box.” He clearly said that when this happens, the “creation of freedom” will be necessary and that Happy Science who opposes totalitarianism will be indeed the “hope”. It is all the more significant as these words are spoken by Heidegger who regrets having been complicit in totalitarianism.
