"Unlike eyes of eutherian mammals, the platypus eye has retained morphologic features present in early tetrapods such as amphibians and their evolutionarily basal sister group, the lungfishes. These include scleral cartilage, double cones and cone droplets." Which doesn't help really.

But there's a nice picture here

The #Zombie Trance


Source: winteroak.org
Thirty-five years ago, millions of people took to the streets to protest the Iraq war, where are they now? Alistair Campbell, one of the architects of a slaughter which resulted in the deaths of millions of children, is now the host of a jovial political podcast. All the while we shovel money through every orifice of the grubby, coke snorting, money launderer in Ukraine. Most of which washes back to our shores in the form of illegal drugs. Now we know why Kosovo was so important. Where’s the protests? Where did the peace people go? Does anyone care about peace anymore?

If the government would treat the nazis like dangerous trespassers and just kill them it would do a lot to make the problem go away.

»Übereinandergestapelte Autos«… mit diesen ersten Worten hat die 20-Uhr-Tagesschau von gestern abend ihre Meldung über eine fürchterliche Katastrophe in Spanien begonnen.

Ein interessanter Schwerpunkt. Man hätte von Verwüstungen und Zerstörungen sprechen können, um die Meldung einzuleiten, von Not, Leiden, Flucht und Tod, aber die ARD-Tagesschau bevorzugt »Übereinandergestapelte Autos«. Der Mund quillt eben über mit dem, womit Herz und Sinn voll sind.

I watched a brief video yesterday explaining permaculture (permanent agriculture). It was interesting but quite limited as it was fundamentally an ad for the presenter's book on permaculture.
I'll not be buying the book but I may well investigate permaculture a little further.
Just by the by, I shan't buy it because my age related enfeeblement means an hour in the garden leaves me worn out and it would take many hours to achieve the results that appear in the small garden in the video.
That's my exculpation taken care of :)

Permaculture has been taken over & turned into a endless pyramid scheme, a bit like yoga.
