Many Chinese during the time had no alternative but to resort to weeds, grasses and discarded parts of rice plants.
Someone did say Coronavirus could be linked to Brexit didn’t they? We know how referendum losers like to use a balm of tenuous linkage to salve their wounds... #deathcult
Apocalyptic Christian derived cults wanting to bring on the second coming are not really death cults, indeed they seek eternal life. This one is just working to a tighter timescale than the Anglicans.
The strange devotion of Chinese to their songbirds was a complete contrast. Older men would congregate with their birds in small bamboo cages, and they would hang them up in the cages to sing to each other. Quite beautiful in a way, but also the reason that you see few wild songbirds in SE Asia.

Yes, it's a problem. Thankfully, most young people are still perfectly sensible.

It's not a problem, it's a choice. There is enough trauma in the world without us adding to it by getting preachy on different dietary lifestyles!

It's very easy to imagine that Sanders is as ghastly as our leftist politicians - the politics of envy. I don't think he is though. It'll take me a while to work him out though as I'm not accustomed to hearing sensible voices from the left, there having been none in the uk for 40 years. (Since Woy anyway)
BEIJING — As new cases of the coronavirus spiked on two continents, the World Health Organization warned on Monday that the world was not ready for a major outbreak, even as it praised China’s aggressive efforts to wrest the epidemic under control.
After two weeks on the ground in China, a team sent by the W.H.O. concluded that the draconian measures China imposed a month ago may have saved hundreds of thousands of people from infection. Such measures — sealing off cities, shutting down businesses and schools, ordering people to remain indoors — have provoked anger in China and could be difficult to replicate in democratic countries with a greater emphasis on protecting civil liberties .

As much as anything is a problem it's a problem. Animals and their products like eggs are nutrition repositories comprising multiple minerals, vitamins, fats, proteins, etc. all in perfect harmonious and digestible form. To imagine that all that can be replaced by a wobbly slab of something unspeakable squeezed out of a soy bean, just because it can be crudely categorised as 'protein' is a view that belongs in the 50's.
If Biden loses the Palmetto State, it will be curtains on his dreams of winning the presidency, and it will be a big problem for others trying to prevent Sanders from winning the nomination as well.
“At this point, anything less than a win makes Sanders’s momentum almost insurmountable,” said Basil Smikle, a former aide to Hillary Clinton who also served as the executive director of the New York State Democratic Party.

It is a definitely a diet of choice. Starvation is less of an issue than previously, but some people in the world do not get to choose what to eat - they have to eat whatever they can get. Those of us blessed with copious amounts of food have choices.

How many other sexually predatory abusive men are there in Hollywood, TV etc who have done much the same, have not been put on trial and will in all likelihood get away with equally revolting behaviour?
No to mention all those doing similar stuff in other sectors/professions? The Bar when I was a junior barrister had its fair share of dirty old men expecting favours from young lawyers.
And how likely is it that such behaviour has stopped?

Yet, actors & movie directors & producers did not speak out when it might have cost them in their careers -- and so Weinstein was allowed to operate with impunity as a bully and rapist for decades.

I don't think vegetarianism is the healthiest possible diet, but it is OK with plenty of eggs, yoghurt, butter, and all the other good stuff.
By the way, vegetables don't actually like being eaten. They contain anti-nutrients to discourage it.

We have no natural predators, whether or not we eat meat ourselves.
Predators look forward. Their eyes are senstive in the centre and they have poor periphial vision. They don't need it. Owls. Tigers. Predatees (is that a word?) have eyes at either side with excellent periphial vision. Normally vegetarian.
Humans have good periphial vision and not so good central vision. You can see a propeller rotating out of the corner of your eye though it's a blur in front of you. We are part vegetarian and part meat eating. We're in the middle of the food chain.
We’re certainly not in the middle of the food chain. Humans are not hunted for food regularly by any animal.
Not at the moment. Wait for the apocalypse. Post plague.
KFC's Vegan Burger isn't bad. It's a tad cheaper than the Burger King Rebel Whopper. But the Rebel Whopper is far tastier

I shall nobly resist the temptation to make an unbelievably tasteless joke about Harvey Weinstein.
Good job by the jury there today, one less dangerous bastard roaming loose despite the defence team’s bullying and hectoring.
How many other sexually predatory abusive men are there in Hollywood, TV etc who have done much the same, have not been put on trial and will in all likelihood get away with equally revolting behaviour?
No to mention all those doing similar stuff in other sectors/professions? The Bar when I was a junior barrister had its fair share of dirty old men expecting favours from young lawyers.
And how likely is it that such behaviour has stopped?
Weinstein's behaviour must have been very widely known in Hollywood.
Actors regularly lecture the rest of us.
Yet, actors & movie directors & producers did not speak out when it might have cost them in their careers -- and so Weinstein was allowed to operate with impunity as a bully and rapist for decades.
Who was it who, when announcing the nominations for Best Actress one year, commented, ‘Congratulations to four women who will no longer have to pretend to be attracted to Harvey Weinstein?’
I was thinking of that very quote -- clearly almost everyone in Hollywood knew (or at least strongly suspected).
Tigers can be very greedy though. Just the other day a time came for tea at my house and wouldn't leave until after it had drank all my beer.
I know this was inadvertent phrasing, but I rather love it.
"Just the other day a time came for tea at my house"
LOL. An example of how your mind reads what it expects or knows should be there rather than what is . . . I had to re-read that two or three times to find the typo.

Modern health advice to me seems to say we need to eat more protein and fewer processed carbs. So keep your meat but ditch your potatoes. I can live with that, I'm trying to cut out eating too much chips not meat.

It was apparently Seth Macfarlane, whom I have not otherwise heard of.
However, the thing that shows where the balance of power lay is that the reason he was not more explicit is the friend of his Weinstein had attacked begged him not to speak out because she was afraid of the consequences.

My daughter was gobbling up the black pudding and roast chicken I cooked at the weekend.
It's not a problem, it's a choice. There is enough trauma in the world without us adding to it by getting preachy on different dietary lifestyles!
It's very clear what the endgame here is for vegans.

Not at all likely - though they are less likely to get away with it, and women are more likely to be believed. Even the recent past is a very different country.
Someone did say Coronavirus could be linked to Brexit didn’t they? We know how referendum losers like to use a balm of tenuous linkage to salve their wounds... #deathcult
That was me in my previous post and, to be fair, I did leaven it with a self-deprecating Brexit-Godwin klaxon.
I just reckon there is a pretty high chance, given how respiratory illneseses peak in winter, that the UKs COVID epidemic occurs a month or two into tnext winter, and the chances we are dealing with it at the same time as a fairly hard Brexit are high.
Now, there's no reason to suppose COVID is worse than winter flu (although it will be additive, flu won't go away), but the politics will be more delicate and any crossover between Brexit issues and COVID issues - particularly supply chain - will be politically very visible. I think that is a risk worth taking very seriously.

They're right to despise the meat industry, but the solution is to return to mixed farming, grow arable crops, then turn the field over to grazing animals, and so forth, it is best for healthy soil, healthy animals, healthy crops. Current trends just replace one overfarmed product of agribusiness with another one that doesn't have a face.

Doesn't surprise me to see you showing yourself up as a small minded bigot once again though. You're so intolerant you are no better than a racist.
Lot's of people find eating meat disgusting...fact. Please stop making personal attacks on me which you seem to have taken to of late...
Stop being a hate filled bigot.
I just asked you quite nicely to stop making personal attacks on me...what is there not to understand about that request?
I'll re-phrase it...please do not make personal attacks on me. Thankyou
KFC's Vegan Burger isn't bad. It's a tad cheaper than the Burger King Rebel Whopper. But the Rebel Whopper is far tastier
Not eating partially burnt bits of chopped up animal is definitely going mainstream. I'd guess at least 30% of my students (16 - 21 y.o. usually) are vegetarian/vegan.
Sadly, some people have no appreciation of being at the top of the food chain.
We have no natural predators, whether or not we eat meat ourselves.
I shall nobly resist the temptation to make an unbelievably tasteless joke about Harvey Weinstein.
Good job by the jury there today, one less dangerous bastard roaming loose despite the defence team’s bullying and hectoring.
How many other sexually predatory abusive men are there in Hollywood, TV etc who have done much the same, have not been put on trial and will in all likelihood get away with equally revolting behaviour?
No to mention all those doing similar stuff in other sectors/professions? The Bar when I was a junior barrister had its fair share of dirty old men expecting favours from young lawyers.
And how likely is it that such behaviour has stopped?
Weinstein's behaviour must have been very widely known in Hollywood.
Actors regularly lecture the rest of us.
Yet, actors & movie directors & producers did not speak out when it might have cost them in their careers -- and so Weinstein was allowed to operate with impunity as a bully and rapist for decades.
Very very few people ever do speak up about bad behaviour. Look at what happens to whistleblowers in the NHS or the police, for instance.
And they’re not speaking up now about other Hollywood bigwigs who have abused or are abusing their power, despite all the #MeToo fuss.
Pretty much every big scandal that has happened in recent years in any sector could have been stopped much much sooner if people who knew or suspected had said something and there had been a willingness to investigate the claims. But they didn’t and there wasn’t. Though as always there have been honourable exceptions.
Turning a blind eye, suffering in silence or walking away are the default options. Not standing up and saying: “This is wrong.” That takes a certain type of courage and bloody-mindedness and willingness to speak truth to power, which is rarer than one would like.
Modern health advice to me seems to say we need to eat more protein and fewer processed carbs. So keep your meat but ditch your potatoes. I can live with that, I'm trying to cut out eating too much chips not meat.
My meal tonight is carvings from a shoulder of iberica ham with an ice cold dry fino sherry and olives.
Nice! I'm jealous, mine was much simpler, chicken sausages with mixed vegetables and mushrooms.

Predators look forward. Their eyes are senstive in the centre and they have poor periphial vision. They don't need it. Owls. Tigers. Predatees (is that a word?) have eyes at either side with excellent periphial vision. Normally vegetarian.
Humans have good periphial vision and not so good central vision. You can see a propeller rotating out of the corner of your eye though it's a blur in front of you. We are part vegetarian and part meat eating. We're in the middle of the food chain.
We’re certainly not in the middle of the food chain. Humans are not hunted for food regularly by any animal.
Not at the moment. Wait for the apocalypse. Post plague.
Yes, but you said we were.
We were.
I’m not disagreeing with that. I was disagreeing with your claim that “We're in the middle of the food chain”. We are not, as you rightly said afterwards.
Mine was a conceptual claim at an abstract level rather than a practical claim of the fact of the matter.
So, what you are saying is that we aren’t in the middle of the food chain?
You might think that. I couldn't possibly comment.

It doesn't surprise me at all that you like consuming copious amounts of meat
There's nothing wrong with that, its entirely natural.
I've never bowed before other people's religions (except out of respect if visiting a temple) and I have no intention of starting to do it with pretentious modern religions like vegetarianism.

Why do you like to dish it out but then object to being called out for your bigotry?

It's no coincidence that two of the most aggressive posters on here to those who disagree with them are vegans. @Dura_Ace and @tyson
I think some people try and look for a morally righteous fulcrum around which they can exercise misanthropic judgement of others because there's actually an aspect of themselves they secretly hate.

Who was it who, when announcing the nominations for Best Actress one year, commented, ‘Congratulations to four women who will no longer have to pretend to be attracted to Harvey Weinstein?’
I was thinking of that very quote -- clearly almost everyone in Hollywood knew (or at least strongly suspected).
And yet they did nothing.
It was apparently Seth Macfarlane, whom I have not otherwise heard of.
If they are of the right age, your students may be familiar with his cartoon series "Family Guy" and "American Dad".

Not at all likely - though they are less likely to get away with it, and women are more likely to be believed. Even the recent past is a very different country.
Without wishing to flog a dead horse, I would like to believe that women will be more likely to be believed. But women are finding it hard to get people to believe that they have concerns about men claiming to be women having access to women only spaces. And are being threatened with expulsion from a political party if they express such views. So while women ought - after a case like Weinstein - to be listened to, I think that it is very easy for those who don’t want to listen to women’s views to find a reason to ignore them.

Didn't we just win the fight against (say) Lions? They're still a natural predator on us.
Lions have no natural predator.
Unless you are that Kenyan Cabinet Minister who believes they are corrupted by gay people.
Oh Damn - I was hoping you wouldn't spot that was who I am!
Lions! Corrupted by Gay people! I think not. They all got turned by David Eycke years ago.
I think we all need to have a nice soothing chamomile tea and calm the fuck down. The only dietary preaching going on here seems to be coming from the carnivorous section of PB. Eat whatever you want to eat, even Hawaiian pizza.

BEIJING — As new cases of the coronavirus spiked on two continents, the World Health Organization warned on Monday that the world was not ready for a major outbreak, even as it praised China’s aggressive efforts to wrest the epidemic under control.
After two weeks on the ground in China, a team sent by the W.H.O. concluded that the draconian measures China imposed a month ago may have saved hundreds of thousands of people from infection. Such measures — sealing off cities, shutting down businesses and schools, ordering people to remain indoors — have provoked anger in China and could be difficult to replicate in democratic countries with a greater emphasis on protecting civil liberties .
“At this point, anything less than a win makes Sanders’s momentum almost insurmountable,” said Basil Smikle, a former aide to Hillary Clinton who also served as the executive director of the New York State Democratic Party.

“A few people ate human flesh. This began in Yunnan, where the famine started in the summer of 1958...Soon the practice appeared in every region decimated by starvation. For example in Tanbin, Luoding, a commune where one in twenty villagers died in 1960, several children were eaten.”
They are a threat.
Most were reduced to trying to digest plants.
They had been digesting rice for thousands of years...

PS. I'm actually a vegetarian, not a vegan!
Lions have no natural predator.

But I just do not eat vast quantities of meat. A little goes a long way for me.
The vast majority of vegetarians do so from personal choice and have never been interested in pursuing broader political objectives.
But one less is a start.
It shows, in your own words about Johnson, ‘be ye ever so high, you are not above the law.’
Now Weinstein and Cosby have been brought to book, hopefully more will.
Humans have good periphial vision and not so good central vision. You can see a propeller rotating out of the corner of your eye though it's a blur in front of you. We are part vegetarian and part meat eating. We're in the middle of the food chain.
Weinstein’s lawyer, Donna Rotunno, said her client would appeal. “He took it like a man“...

"Just the other day a time came for tea at my house"
By the way, vegetables don't actually like being eaten. They contain anti-nutrients to discourage it.
And yet they did nothing.
However, the thing that shows where the balance of power lay is that the reason he was not more explicit is the friend of his Weinstein had attacked begged him not to speak out because she was afraid of the consequences.

Many advanced savages do as well.
I don't respect those who wish to push that belief onto others, whether that be preaching to pthers, or banning children from eating meat.
Even the recent past is a very different country.
This is a frank and self critical account of how it was in the US legal profession:
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2017/12/judge-alex-kozinski-made-us-all-victims-and-accomplices.html
I just reckon there is a pretty high chance, given how respiratory illneseses peak in winter, that the UKs COVID epidemic occurs a month or two into tnext winter, and the chances we are dealing with it at the same time as a fairly hard Brexit are high.
Now, there's no reason to suppose COVID is worse than winter flu (although it will be additive, flu won't go away), but the politics will be more delicate and any crossover between Brexit issues and COVID issues - particularly supply chain - will be politically very visible. I think that is a risk worth taking very seriously.
What proportion of mammals eat meat do you think and what proportion hit each other over the head with a blunt stick? I know which I find more natural - and healthy, tasty and what we evolved to do.
I should go easy on the fino.
I'll re-phrase it...please do not make personal attacks on me. Thankyou
