Ken Russell's The Devils (1971) is still censored and Warner Bros are not releasing a director's cut, even in this day and age. Is it really that controversial?
It's odd, but when checking the electoral role with my DNI number, I don't figure as being able to vote, so I'm waiting for a phone call from one of the local parties as happened in the primaries.
The same happened then in September where my name didn't appear but I was on the list. Odd/
EDIT:
Foreigners have to check the legal aliens page, that's the mistake I was making.
Back on subject for a moment.....
It's in the fridge. Tomorrow's lunch is sorted!
It's the old fashioned can with no widget, so I will reserve my judgement until tomorrow.
That delivery was fast! Let us know how it tastes...
Display MoreAccuweather has just posted a weather warning from the Argentina Met Office. As it was in Spanish I used Google translation. Wish I hadn't as I'm now shitting myself!!
The area will be affected by storms, some of which are locally strong, and may be accompanied by intense gusts, strong electrical activity, occasional hail falls and, fundamentally, abundant waterfalls in short periods. Accumulated precipitation values between 30 and 60 mm are expected, which can be exceeded in a timely manner.
1- Do not take out the garbage. Remove objects that prevent water from draining.
2- Avoid outdoor activities.
3- Do not take refuge near trees and electricity poles that may fall.
4- To minimize the risk of being struck by lightning, do not stay on beaches, rivers, lagoons or
pools.
5- Be attentive to the possible fall of hail.
6- Inform yourself by the authorities, always have an emergency backpack with a flashlight, radio,
documents and telephone.
Then there was this regarding the wind.
The area will be affected by winds from the north sector with speeds between 40 and 50 km / h, with gusts that can exceed 70 km / h. Then they are expected to rotate to the southern sector between the afternoon and night of Saturday 13, with speeds between 45 and 55 km / h, with gusts that can exceed 75 km / h
1- Avoid outdoor activities.
2- Secure the elements that can be blown up.
3- Stay informed by authorities. Always have an emergency backpack with a flashlight, radio, documents and a phone ready.
For what time period is this weather warning UK Man ?
I usually find these warnings to be way over the top in my experience and I'm a member of numerous weather groups which also put out warnings like this. Often it just ends up as a stiff breeze and the odd shower.
Last Sunday, they were predicting a wash-out for voting day, this Sunday, but that has changed to Sunday night.
Tucker Carlson of Fox News takes the piss out of Argentina for proposing swapping debt for climate actions, whatever they are.
As if...
En la TV de EEUU se burlaron de la idea argentina de cambiar deuda por acciones climáticas | TN
In Argentina is Scotch and Irish Whiskey subject to high tarriff's? In the US we do have tarriff's on whiskey hopefully they will be lowered. In the US at least last time I looked 18 year old Glenvelvet was $80 USD. What would the price be for something if that caliber in Argentina? Do Argentinians buy the good stuff in Paraguay because it's cheaper?
Guinness is good but in the US we have stouts at least as good from many microbreweries.Does Argentina have microbreweries?
L
Do you mean Glenlivet?
In which case you can get that for a bout US$30 here based on a peso price of $5850 and converting at a blue rate of say, $200.
For example:
And using the same conversion, my favourite, Captain Morgan Rum is about US$5. I don't know how it works but some booze is very cheap down here and if you have US$, it really does help.
Microbreweries have sprung up all over the place in Argentina and the selection of beers is now better than ever.
$20 for an iPhone polishing cloth? Apple really knows how to screw the last penny out of its devout followers.
Who is Banksy?
BBC News - Banksy: What do we know about the anonymous artist?
Still keep nagging for a trial and I can't go any further.
Another nail on the head.
This is about right
The dollar finally hit $200 today, presumably due to lack of confidence in the gonks running this country.
On Sunday a kiosk owner in Ramos Mejia, La Matanza, was shot dead with six bullets to his neck and chest. A 29 year old man (Suarez) and his 15 year old accomplice were arrested later after a police chase.
Suarez was released from prison as part of the pandemic releases of murderers and rapists etc, all authorised by this government. La Matanza is the most violent areas in the whole of Buenos Aires and it's controlled by hard line Kirchnerite officials.
Suarez is from Fort Apache, a name that speaks for itself.
Be careful out there.
Banana sandwiches are lovely with plenty of butter and sugar. As are bacon, egg and melted cheese sandwaggers.
The Financial Times is painting a very bleak picture of Argentina and the elections are looming which Albert will undoubtedly lose.

QuoteIn an attempt to win over voters before the election, the government has stepped up welfare payments partly funded by central bank money printing and frozen the prices of more than 1,400 household products until January, including liqueur, vermouth and cat food.
That made me chuckle, but I'm not sure why.
Wish I had your confidence.
Do you just plug one into the modem and the other into an electric socket and Bob's your Uncle?
Clearly you have to configure it, but the system does come with instructions. Normally you would do it by connection initially to a PC or laptop with a network cable, job done.
That's a one-off set up, usually and you're ready to go.
The range extenders from TP Link have improved enormously over the years, but I haven't used them for ages. I'd certainly give the Mesh system a go.
My original post seems to have disappeared. Anyway, in July the forum was migrated away from GoDaddy to Prostack and you will have noticed the difference in loading speeds. It's night and day in comparison.
It's a little more expensive than GoDaddy, but frankly you get what you pay for and more. The site is backed up daily, SSL is included and the support team is the best I've ever come across. It's one to one instead of chatting to a bot, like it was at GoDaddy.
This is the server where our forum resides.
