The pop top ones are great and I love them but it's easy to mess something up and make them pretty dangerous.

If you have a hygrometer you can measure the sugar content of your brew which takes out the guess work, get one of them before glass bottling. Hygrometers are like $10 and well worth having.

Plum and cherry wine sounds divine. Good luck!

If the juice is concentrated, like molasses it'll be fine. Hops might be ok if they're vacuum sealed and freeze dried as they often are.. they look like little pellets. If they're just dried then get some more.

Just follow the instructions.

If you're bottle conditioning, (adding a bit of sugar in the bottle to carbonate) I would recommend using plastic coke bottles. They're pressure safe and don't explode like glass does if you add too much sugar.

and none of it is indeed by search engines. No one else will ever be able to Google their problem and find the answer. All the useful knowledge put into a box and buried. It's just awful.

Me too mate. We don't know what's in these files so overstating their importance could backfire.

It also sets some unreasonably high threshold for condemning the man, as if there is not enough information out in public yet for people to make up their minds and the missing piece we really need is some list with his name on it titled 'underage sex trafficking clients', and nothing else will meet expectations.

That doesn't exist and when they're released it'll be a damp Squibb and it'll be framed by friendly media as if he's been exonerated and a bunch of people will buy that. Like the Muller report.

Keeping his association with Epstein in the public mind is good but leaning specifically on the files too much is gifting them an opportunity for them to flip it around.

Same as if you let go of a kite. It'll just tumble back down to Earth over some distance.

A little reminder to Trump that Murdoch is a king maker. Murdoch wants to keep people on the edge of power, flipped this way or that at Murdoch's wim.

But also, murdoch shaped the dialog about what this picture depicted before anyone had seen it. Everyone is now describing it as a women instead of what it appears to be... a child.

He's taking trump to the edge. But also preventing him going over. This is not quite as unfriendly as it would appear.

She has a whole book like this. Every page is wonderful.

Excellent drawing!

Wait, I'm out of the loop, why?

Have a look at the clock faces there using to Benchmark and it'll make more sense.

Are you talking about anyone in particular?

The deputy prime minister was forced to resign just last week. The only higher position than that is PM.
