As US tariffs kick in, supposedly to restore US manufacturing, one aspect missing from discussion is that as technology has driven supply chains over the last 40 years, governments have been shaping economies through their priorities. What this means - - - >

So the reason Norfolk Island copped a dramatically higher tariff than the rest of Australia is two shipments of Timbaland boots from the Bahamas and some aquarium supplies from the UK that had their point of origin mislabeled or misrecorded. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Was there anyone in charge of continuity when they filmed ‘This city is ours’? A dead man in an open coffin wouldn’t be moving his head up and down in every shot. As for someone crashing a modern Mini without activating airbags…..

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

This is such an incredibly condescending and annoying letter from Sarah Raven when sending a dahlia I didn’t particularly want, and obviously didn’t choose. And this has happened with 2 out of 4 dahlias which were chosen specifically by me. Either contact me or offer a refund, please.
