a couple of years ago i saw a young mixed race girl with a staffie thought of matt dc' post about them only being owned by racists

/and/ thought

my ex-dog (;_;) was 1/4 staffie and on our walks we regularly met staffies I can only describe as 'delightful' - when treated well their default character is lovely, playful, loyal & really quite amusing

idk if that's innate though or just what happens when you train a dog to be affectionate. talented dogs: discuss

Romford’s royalist MP Andrew Rosindell said he “couldn’t believe his eyes” when he pulled an unscathed portrait of the Queen from the burnt-out ruins of the British Embassy, during a visit to Libya last week.

The Foreign Affairs Select Committee member, and vocal advocate of the Royal family, requested a special visit to the gutted building in Tripoli during a two-day meet-and-greet with Libya’s new democratic interim government.

“Everything inside the embassy was burnt out, there was just ash,” Mr Rosindell told the Recorder, “but I saw something white out of the corner of my eye, and underneath the rubble was a portrait of the Queen - practically untouched - I couldn’t believe my eyes.

In September 2010 Rosindell again courted controversy when he sponsored the first Erotica event to be held in the Houses of Parliament. Rosindell maintained that he was promoting the hosts, a Romford based business, as is his constituency duty.[13]

that Libya pic is totally a shop! I found the original:

The Tesco value pepper is a product I had tried recently and this is my review.

I have been trying out some of the items in the Tesco value range to see if they are any good and I think some of them are rubbish but some of them I would definitely buy again.

I use pepper in a lot of cooking and preparing meals. I also like it on some of my meals to. I usually use ground pepper but when I saw this in my local Tesco supermarket I thought I would buy it to give it a try out as I use pepper a lot.

The packaging is very basic and this is the case with all of the products in the Tesco value range. This is because it is a 'no frills' range and you are not paying for nice looking packaging. The Tesco value pepper comes in a little plastic pot which is white in colour. There is a white label on the front to the little tub and this has the name of the product on and the usual Tesco value logo and wording which is all in red and blue.

When I went to open the pepper pot I thought it was a bit fiddly because of the way the pot had a sticky label covering the little holes on the top of the pot. Once I got this off though I thought the pepper came out the holes in the pot just fine and this let me garnish my food and season my cooking.

The pepper tastes nice and it gives a kick to my food. I did not like it as much as my ground pepper that I usually use but I did not expect to as there is such a difference in price. The Tesco value pepper does not look that attractive either but again this does not really bother me and I am more worried about the taste than how it looks.

The taste is like other pepper and can be quite hot if you use to much of it. I like this though so it does not bother me at all.

I would buy the Tesco value pepper again as I liked the taste and thought for the money it was a good buy. It only cost me about 20 pence or so for the little tub and this has a lot of uses in it as it is a good little size.

I would suggest giving it a try and think it is a good product for the money. It is not the nicest pepper I have ever eaten but it is the cheapest. I think it is worth a try and will buy it again.
Summary: PEPPER FOR PENNIES

I have recently tried out the Glade Magnolia and Vanilla Air Freshener spray and this is my review.

The Glade Air Freshener Magnolia and Vanilla was a scent that I had not seen before so I do not know if it is a new one or if I just have never seen it. I like flower scents and quite like using vanilla candles in my house so I thought the Glade spray sounded very nice.

I bought my spray in Sainsbury's and I paid £1.23 for the spray can. The can is a good size and is 300ml which is the same size as most air freshener cans that I usually buy. The picture on the front of the can is very nice and it has a pretty flower on it.

I like to keep an air freshener can in my bathroom and I also spray some in my hallway after I have dusted and cleaned it. I do not spray to much just a couple of squirts and my hallway is very big so the fragrance does not feel to strong when I spray it in there. I also use air freshener if I am having guests over and I usually spray one squirt into each room so that I know there is a nice smell for my visitors coming over.

The Glade Magnolia and Vanilla air freshener smells very nice and I liked the flower scent in the air freshener. It is a very fresh smell and is not to over powering and I thought that the smell lasted a long time in the room after I sprayed it. I thought the smell was quite strong and it was very easy to notice so I did not need to use to much of the spray to be able to smell it in the room so I knew the can was going to last me a long time.

The only thing I did not like about the Glade Magnolia and Vanilla Air Freshener was the type of vanilla scent they had used in the air freshener. The vanilla part of the scent was not to warm which is what I like most with vanilla scents. I thought the vanilla was very sweet and sickly and it made the air freshener catch in my throat. The magnolia part of the spray was very nice and quite flowery and subtle and it is a shame that the vanilla in the spray was so sickly cos it just ruined the lovely magnolia scent of the spray. It put me off from using the spray a bit and I went and bought another one instead and will just use the Magnolia and Vanilla one in the bathroom and not when visitors are coming round.

I thought that I was getting headaches from this Glade Air Freshener after I had sprayed it into my living room or bedroom then was in that room for a while I would start to feel a headache coming on and I think it is cos the vanilla in the spray was so sickly and very sweet that it made my head feel sore. This put me off from using the Glade Air Freshener again.

I would not really suggest giving the Glade Magnolia and Vanilla Air Freshener a try out cos I thought the vanilla in the scent was very cheap smelling and it was to sickly and sweet and ruined the lovely smell of the magnolia so it put me off from using it. I would not buy it again and it is a shame cos I really liked the magnolia flower scent.

i don't read books any more, just dooyoo reviews

you hardly see white pepper nowadays, i wonder if it's due a comeback

real england fair grounds look a lot like real american fair grounds

no doubt. there are probably certain kinds of realness that are transcontinental

digression (because academic study of the real is not itself real. Usually): thinking about realness of minor celebrities in airbrush fairground art led me to the National Fairground Archive, & its articles on the miami, and airbrush art.

and now the works of Paul Wright.

Whilst the 1990s saw marked new genres and practices on the fairground, buttressed by a terrific upsurge in the spectacle and amplification of pop culture on the fairground via the monopolisation of dance music

this is cock on, the experience of fairground rides pre: Happy Hardcore/2-Step/Bassline is v. hard to remember for me

i love fairground airbrush art btw, it is unique and precious

totally - I'd never looked for it on the web before, heartened to see the enthusiasm for the stuff of now rather than just the old-timey tootling wooden horse stuff (which is fine too, but I also want giant airbrush Cheryl Coles).

Go Sheffo fanzine

Go Sheffo is a fanzine about Sheffield and its potential to be the coolest city in the world. Previous editions have included last summer's 'Sheffield Is Beautiful', which featured photographs of Sheffielders enjoying a brief hot spell, while the recent 'Death' issue was about the potential for reusing disused factory works for creative spaces such as band practice rooms and artists' studios. Last year, Go started a competition called 'Cooling the Towers'. It's aim was to save these sleeping beasts from certain demolition by turning them into a symbol of what Sheffield stands for: a proud and fiercely creative city. The famous cooling towers (pictured below right) would become an Angel of the North for the Tinsley Viaduct. One suggestion was that the towers would light up as cars passed on the M1, one a tower of red lights and one a tower of white. Go Sheffo petitioned the city council with these suggested uses but met with mute response. So the secret potential of the towers may tragically never be realised.

sometimes i just remember fragments of guardian articles from 2006 or whatever and have to look them up, it's like a degraded reverse clairvoyance
