Some were forced; there's videos of people in care homes being held down and vaxed. I think also some instances where parents wanted vax but child didn't - kids were forcibly jabbed as well.
For gold only - no VAT or CGT.
Silver coins can dodge the VAT by not taking delivery; you pay to keep them in a vault. Not sure about platinum.
We (UK) used to be able to buy silver tax-free until Brexit but now we have to pay 20%
I verified some of the claims at http://www.come-and-hear.com
I did find the quotes in there, kinda, but it is all such a rambling unclear contradictory mess I can't be sure if I am reading the same actual message as they intended to communicate. It contains paragraphs saying things like sex with 3-year olds is acceptable and I doubt even the small-hatters could get away with saying that was legit theology today.
Also note that this thing calls itself the "Babylonian Talmud" which would place its origins somewhere round present-day Baghdad and so not necessarily the same thing as whatever they do in Israel in modern times.
What will happen to the bitcoin which have been mined but then subsequently lost?
There is a guy near where I live who says he mined quite a few back in 2010 when a BTC=10cents but then forgot about them and threw out his laptop. For a couple of years he has been pestering the local council to be allowed into the garbage dump to search for it as it is now worth millions. Quite a few people have picked up on that and the council has had to put extra security fences and people on the dump.
So that's what this was about and why Team Trump allowed it to happen. Can't believe I failed to see that for myself. Great plan.

For years the restaurant owners have gotten away with paying shit wages to their staff. Thus the practice of "tipping" - originally an occasional recognition of "above and beyond" service but now a routine expectation. The restaurant owners thought they were so smart in exporting their payroll costs onto their mug customers.
I'm glad to see they are finally getting a dose of reality. People work for you = you have to pay them a decent wage and not rip them off.
Tea is really good for your body. It's the leaves of the Camilla Sinensis plant - green tea is just the leaves, black tea (99.5% the most popular) is the fermented leaves. Contains all sorts of healthy bioflavonoids and good stuff.
Impossible to get a nice cup of tea in the USA. I don't know why because unless you are a total snob about the tea ritual a cup of tea is a small disposable bag of dried stuff , with boiling water added. Not rocket science.
In Russian prisons they traditionally make a brew named "chai" which is ultra-fermented tea or something like that. Can get slightly high on it.
It's a shame you kicked our asses and threw the tea in the harbour but hey thems the breaks.
This only applies to North America and your slightly odd date formats.. The rest of us should be immune.
If restaurant workers get decently paid then they no longer need all that tipping crap.
French spies want Olympics opening ceremony scrapped – media
Last week’s terrorist attack in Russia has reportedly raised concerns over the event becoming a target

One US Gallon is equal to 3.785411784 Litres One litre costs 1.45 GBP = 1.8 USD (average retail price for March 2024)
So that's 6.8 dollars per gallon here in UK. More or less normal price for us and it won't be an election issue.
tl;dr Lucky Americans count your blessings!

I have spent time around shipping containers and I can tell you that they are extremely tough steel boxes and also are airtight. They have to be because they are exposed on the deck of the ship for weeks in potentially hostile sea conditions.
I really cannot see shipping live children in containers and expecting them to be delivered still alive and in good shape. Even in modified containers let's say you made some airholes but nobody can realistically live inside a metal box for indefinite periods of time.
If they are shipping kidnapped children around the world it would make yugely more sense to find some way to fly them, or if that were too hard to conceal then at least some other kind of ship (non-container.)
Seems crazy to me. Some guys show up claiming to be FBI then do a nanosecond flash of their supermarket loyalty cards then refuse to identify themselves because "they already just did."
For me that would have been enough to stop interacting with them, go back inside, and either ignore them until they went away or if sufficiently concerned then call the real police.
I would say that sex is THE most common focus of popular song lyrics.

Already thought of that and counted the stripes on each to see if I could come up with anything. Would have liked to find a connection but ultimately it's a striped sweater which sold in huge numbers.
That stripey jumper is incredibly fashionable (don't ask me why) so my guess would be no not same identical garment.
My feeling is false flag by the Russians. They clearly had the alleged perps already under close surveillance otherwise how did they find them so quickly? And if already keeping tabs on them why would they let them go ahead with their plan?
Could even be that they arrested them prior to the attack and got them to detail exactly what was supposed to happen. Thus whoever is really behind it thinks it was a success.
The building was from 2009 so could be it was expendable so they evacuated everyone and blew it up.
Now for US/EU under pressure to send even more money and weapons there is a face-saving off-ramp that "Ukraine went too far. How can we fund these monsters." And Russians themselves can bolster support from their own people.
Thanks for that I was wondering why. I never heard of accident-prone signs. We have "accident black-spot" instead.
I'm in UK and just checked a few cans of soup - the barcodes don't conform to the chart. Don't believe this post is accurate.
Unbelievably it is not illegal in UK to have video surveillance in a public toilet.
I know this because I was in the toilets of Wolverhampton train station and saw a camera watching me taking a leak. I complained to the train company and they explained they previously had problems with some kind of antisocial behaviour in the toilets and they were allowed to have cameras to combat that.
You're completely right, but to be fair the word "bazooka" is even now occasionally used by non-experts, for example to refer to RPG or NLAW.
I had a look at the history of the bazooka and it is quite fascinating. At the beginning of World War 2 the only way for infantry to disable a tank was to do same as Hamas do in modern times - a soldier runs up and plants a charge on the tank then runs away again. Obviously not ideal if you are an infantryman.
It was relatively easy to come up with a grenade which would pierce armour with a shaped charge but the difficult problem was how to launch it from a distance. Too heavy to throw or fire from a rifle. The development team happened to see a handy metal tube in a junkyard and realised that they could use that to shield the soldier from the launch rocket.
The bazooka was rigged together in quite a short time and was such a success when demo-ed that the brass ordered a load on the spot.
I wish to get back all the tax money which I have ever spent on them.
