Standardised crops conceal a coercive weapon of the commercial seed companies.
Cross-pollinating plants reproduce sustainably by receiving pollen from another plant with a slightly different genome.
The inbreed descendents of a self-fertilised cross-pollinating plant express undesirable characteristics that make them unsellable.
The plant breeders use this to their advantage by hybridising two different inbred plants. The seed of this union will produce a field of identical and commercially useful plants, but any seed from that field will suffer from depressive inbreeding.
The farmer is locked into buying seed year after year from the seed producers if he wishes to grow beets, sunflowers, or horticultural crops.
Unlike cross-pollinating crops, self-pollinating crops do not suffer from inbreeding depression and farmers can save and replant seed year upon year.
Although seeds must be in the European seed catalogues before they can be legally sold or exchanged, there is no biological barrier. Farm-saved seed gets around the catalogue system for cross-pollinating plants.
It need hardly be said that the seed industry has encouraged EU legislation to suppress them.

The unique experimental setup for an experiment at CG-1D included induction heating and an open flame boost heating to more closely simulate hypersonic flight conditions. The research team, including Eric Martin, Ken Kihm, and Alex Barclay from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, used CG-1D to study high temperature liquid metal heat pipes.

the Anchor, well, what a gem, for us Real Ale questers it was a great find...providing you have an afternoon sesh.. I know this is Beer in The Evening, but unless you're eating, and have therefore booked a table, you will be treated like a second-class citizen during the evenings. We tend to use pubs for drinking in, strange as this may seem... We counted 36 tables, restaurant AND bar, and every one was reserved, this occured on four different occasions, so now it's aftenoons only. A great shame, as it is a beautiful pub, in a beautiful location.

Fantastic setting, but first impressions count, there is a sign saying something about no children allowed in the bar - however one of the bar staff clarified this as babies in pushchairs are not permitted. The menu is too extensive, it took several minutes to find the non fish dishes on the menu. The menu is far too complicated. Going for a non fish dish was for some of our party a bad mistake - they ordered a pasta dish whish was almost a tin of tomatoes poured over some pasta - too much tomato taste and very little else. I had the gurt big pie, which was excellent. The barman / waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable, the service was good, prices were average. If you're a fish lover, or you enjoy sitting outside a pub by the water, then this place is a must, when in the Starcross Area, otherwise, there are probably better places to eat.

I would spend the rest of my days sitting in The Anchor if I could.

To much on the menu was the first thing i noticed and a very severe looking woman who turned out to be the landlady. Beer was good with a decent selection. Abbot ale is always good. Food was good too but took me nearly an hour to decide.(i may just be too fussy but over 20 differnt mussel sauces is a bit much) I shall return however.

been there more than a few times, I was surpirsed to see so many negative comments to be honest. They do an excellent seafood selection, which I tend to have every time I go there. Will be there a ain soon, so I will report back.

Con palabras usadas,
gastadas por el tiempo y la costumbre,
cuyo último temblor ya no se siente.
Con palabras, como sueños, quemadas por la vida,
esta noche de lluvia hablo contigo,
trato de hablar al menos, ligeramente ebrio,
construyendo cada sílaba en el país de nunca jamás,
y sintiendo esa repentina lucidez
con la que, de pronto, rompemos la rutina de ser y conocemos,
sintiendo, digo, esa rara sensación, distante y desangrada,
del whisky, de la noche y el silencio,
de la entusiasta desesperación con que aceptamos la derrota,
de ese vértigo, a veces, sólo a veces, tuyo y mío,
donde morimos sonriendo con los ojos abiertos.
Sintiendo lo poco que es un beso al fondo de tu lengua,
o tus ojos mirándose en los míos,
o nuestras manos unidas en el aire,
recorriendo un museo de aceptados fracasos.
Desfilan, batallón desolado de fantasmas,
nombres y nombres con distinto eco.
Pretendemos, con abolidos rostros, fechas caducadas, ciudades imposibles,
contestar una vieja pregunta
cuya respuesta sólo la muerte ya conoce.
Años y años, voluntarios exilios de seres y países,
los hijos que no quise tener, los que tú sí tuviste,
el temblor del deseo que aún guardas en tu piel,
mi repetido navegar de cama en cama,
se reúnen y afirman su destino
frente a la ceremonia del amanecer.
Y todo lo sabemos y está escrito en tus ojos,
sin embargo hoy, este día con sol, -tan raro en Bogotá-
de finales de julio, de algún año cualquiera,
te propongo mi amor, sé que tú aceptarás,
con palabras usadas, te propongo mentirnos.
Pasada ya la noche, quietos frente al espejo,
mientras yo me afeito y tú pintas tus labios,
te propongo mi amor, decir que nos queremos.
Decir -y son tan sólo ejemplos- «hoy existe la vida por nosotros»
o «tú no te morirás nunca»
o, tal vez, «aún hay noches y noches que esperan
nuestros brazos, ese especial calor de dormir abrazados».
Olvidando, tratando de olvidar nuestro pasado,
ignorando el futuro, sin duda inalcanzable,
con palabras gastadas, decir y repetir
-es otro ejemplo- «gracias mi amor por haber existido».
Al menos por un rato -a nadie molestamos-
con palabras usadas mentirnos y mentirnos,
mentirnos contra el tiempo, despreciar su victoria.
Envío:
Te dejo este poema
confuso, absurdo, largo,
para que tú lo tengas como un pañuelo viejo
a los pies de tu cama, para que tú la tengas,
y un día te lo encuentres, confuso, absurdo, largo,
un día como éste -cuando ya no estaremos-
y recuerdes, debajo de la ducha,
que alguna vez te quise -mentiras y mentiras-
que alguna vez te quise -era un día de julio-
con palabras usadas, como un disco rayado,
que recuerdes, mi amor, esta letra de tango.
"Desapariciones y fracasos" 1978

Part of a SET titled Wheelchair users and trains in the UK in the 1980s " Taken 135mm b/w film
BR Guards van photo taken in the late1980's. Despite this carriage being known as the Guards-van, it was very rare for a railway employee (i.e a Guard) to actually be in the van. There was no heating, nor was there any additional seating for companions of wheelchair users, or Tanoy speakers or even an alarm. I was once put on the wrong train and ended up in Slough by a British Rail employee. When I questioned the Guard, he said that he had announced the destination 3 times on the speaker system, I had to point out that none of these speakers reached the carriage that I had been put in.
I am amazed that, as far as I know, no female wheelchair user was ever sexually assaulted in this type of carriage, considering she would have no access to any alarm bell, nor would it be likely for any witnesses who could get help. The use of this carriage represents a policy of apartheid for wheelchair users by the British Rail Board although people have been using wheelchairs in the UK for far longer than the existence of the train.
John Evelyn (a contemporary of Samuel Pepys) recorded the use of a wheelchair in his diary entry of the 11th January, 1672, the earliest passenger train in England only dates back to September, 1825, one hundred and fifty-three years later.
