Denver's nut job mayor to head the resistance.
In most cases they are taking $ in one form or another from the S0ro$ gang and others, and they also do it to get votes from people who want something for nothing. All the way to the top of the left. -

How much sin sod for 28 yo single mom of 2 Bangkok suburb (Rangsit)
He is a sensible boy then. Marriage these sad days is a scam that only benefits women. Unfortunately NZ made it that even if you only live together, after a few years it's legally the same as marriage so the woman still gets to financially destroy the guy. They don't even need a reason to get divorced. Did I ever get destroyed by the <deleted>! He's wise that he doesn't want children. I only afforded my life style because I wasn't involved with a partner and didn't have kids. I never said that as a teenager. I always assumed I'd get married and have children. Lucky for me that I joined the military and moved too often to get to know a women well enough to get married. -

Which cooking oil to use?
You body needs fat, though most could do with a little less saturated fat. Why if not wanting flavor of the oil (EVOO, Coconut or Sesame) we use Canola. -

What Is the Best Way to Fly?
???????????????? Fly an airline that has screens that tilt so you can see it when they put the seat back down. No problem on THAI. Back when I was flying Saudia ( the worst major airline on the planet in the 90s ) so few would fly on it that I often got the 4 seats in the center to lie on. I never found 2 seats enough to sleep properly. Saudia in the 90s didn't have individual screens ( Emirates did then ), and the movies were so censored not worth watching, so sleeping was all that was left. -

BBC Staff Divided Over Call to Wear Palestinian Flag Colors and Keffiyeh
A workplace initiative urging BBC staff to wear the colors of the Palestinian flag and keffiyehs in solidarity with Palestine has sparked division and raised concerns, particularly among Jewish employees. Organized by the Trades Union Congress (TUC) as part of a broader "workplace day of action" for Palestine, the event aims to advocate for a ceasefire, the cessation of violence in Gaza, and the release of hostages. Scheduled for Thursday, the TUC has encouraged participants to visibly demonstrate their support by wearing red, green, black, or the traditional Palestinian keffiyeh. The National Union of Journalists (NUJ), which represents many BBC staff, endorsed the event, sharing the call to action with its members. The NUJ also condemned Israeli military actions, stating that since October 7, 2023, at least 135 Palestinian journalists have been killed. "The NUJ is urging branches and chapels to show support on the day and amplify the union’s calls," it said. However, the initiative has drawn backlash from Jewish staff at the BBC, who worry that visible displays of solidarity with Palestine could jeopardize the broadcaster's impartiality and alienate colleagues. One BBC journalist expressed frustration, describing the action as "hypocritical and antisemitic" and criticizing it for encouraging behavior that might contravene the organization’s impartiality standards. “BBC journalists, who pride themselves on impartiality and who fought to keep their NUJ free of politics, are being encouraged to break the BBC’s editorial guidelines by supporting a political cause,” the journalist said. Charlotte Henry, a freelance journalist and creator of *The Addition*, a media and tech newsletter, announced she had left the NUJ over its stance. “It has become a hostile environment for Jews, and I can no longer be a part of that,” she stated. The controversy underscores the tension between advocacy and impartiality within the BBC, where employees are expected to adhere strictly to neutrality guidelines. The Trades Union Congress, which represents 5.5 million members across various sectors, has been criticized by some Jewish organizations for its perceived insensitivity toward Jewish workers. The Board of Deputies of British Jews issued a statement condemning the TUC’s approach. "It is time for these unions to decide, are they there to support workers or to play student politics on a conflict on whose facts they appear to be plainly ignorant," it read. The Board also warned that introducing such issues into workplaces risks exacerbating tensions for Jewish employees. “Whatever the stated intent, attempts to bring this issue into the workplace in such a fashion will undoubtedly add to the belligerent atmosphere which many Jewish staff have been facing.” This debate highlights the challenges of navigating political activism in professional environments, particularly in institutions like the BBC, where impartiality is a core principle. As the day of action approaches, the division among staff serves as a stark reminder of the complexities involved in balancing advocacy, solidarity, and neutrality.
