Another slant on the same events: Up to 10,000 Burmese Buddhist monks and civilians have defied police tear gas and live bullets on the ninth day of protests against the military rulers. At least one monk was killed, hospital sources in the main city of Rangoon said. The government has confirmed one...

Bear in mind that these things are oxygen-sensitive, which is why they're sold in aluminised packets. Once you take them out of the packet the air gets to them and they start ageing.

There's several of them for sale. Others here:

By the standards of UK property prices, some of these are a bargain!

My little boy loves glowsticks too. Here in the UK, they're available from Poundland (in packs, for £1) - although finding them in stock can be a challenge

C (70 F), sunny, with an inconvenient 25mph wind. We took the usual stuff; coats, drinks, 1st aid kit...

a man had an original WWII MRE (although that's not what they were called then) and he decided to crack it open and eat the fruit cake. If it was actual, honest, WWII-era K-Rations, I'm speechless- you don't digest history like that. Particularly when it didn't taste so good to begin with and has a...

What do you see when you look at the American dollar's decline, the sub-prime mess, the Rock bank in England, the price of gold, the global real estate markets, America's huge dollar deficits, etc.? I am wondering what people in your media are saying. I am wondering what your countrymen say. I am w...

While it is true that algae must have a light source to survive (photosynthetic organism), any treated tapwater is going to have more than enough chlorine in it to kill any algae. Even with exposure to air or other sources, which theoretically may harbor algae, if algae got inside the bottle while ...

Hi, I'm Chris (but often known as sheddi for reasons that are frankly too boring to go into) from north Hampshire, England. My interest in prepredness started back when I was a cub scout, and the chance to combine that with zombies seemed too good to miss :D I wish I could say that I found Zombie Sq...
