Nice reply, btw. I thought it looked impressive at first, especially with the lack of motion blur but noticed the short depth of field which got me thinking a bit, but it stilled looked impressive. Your link is less sharp/more grainy so maybe the OP's image could be digitally enhanced? which would explain some of the quality.

So do you

Alas I can't find any news reports in the UK stating hundreds of thousands, that's a really significant number of people for the UK, rather tens of thousands. Last year saw 300,000 pro Palestine protesters head to London, but it appears to be an over-'estimation' for this protest. Great to see people still going out in the UK though.

Makes sense, use the prey's weight and momentum to do the hard work, rather than the relativly feable arm of a much smaller creature!

What exactly are you trying to acheive by studying an instrument? Why did you choose to learn beyond hobby level?

Your approach sounds like you see it akin to training in a skill for a job. Spend the time and money on it and at the end you can play as well as 95% of people. But then you got bored/lost direction as you didn't go so far as to do this as a new career so there was no end goal. Looking at the kind of money you think you need to spend, that sounds like professional level stuff (hint, a 40k piano will not improve your ability! But must be nice to play!)

It is hard, and not for everyone, to practice so much. I really enjoy playing the piano, but can never find the time or energy or drive to spend the time to learn to even a half decent level. Lessons would help me, but I've never found myself in a place to go for it. Which I accept. I'll never play any Franz Liszt!

I don't get the impression music is enough of a passion for you to get a lot out of 'studying' as you said you dont want to work part time to do so. So my advice would be to keep practicing and push yourself to learn new music as much as you enjoy it and maybe have some lessons to keep you on track . Maybe studying will suit you later in life, but not at this time.

You also don't sound lazy btw! Like i said, it is hard work, especially alongside a job, but doesn't quite sound like it's rewarding enough for you.

Err where did their old car come from if he left by train? And how did 'they' question him if he sped off? And who asked the questions? Was he just in excellent physical health? Did he have dementia? So many holes in this story!

'...unemployed minors...'

It's not, it's just that people with extreme views get a lot of attention/coverage. Those people exist, and there's more than I'd personally like there to be, but they're still in the minorty (those at the 'crazy' level, there is a lot of 'racist lites' of course). Just as an Englishman that I am, seeing the US being portayed as chock full of far right Trump worshippers wanting to overthrow democracy. Not least mention, Mexico.

Well they got one thing right...They didn't turn out well.

It amazes me that no-one ever seems to say (not that I have seen, at least)...Isreal is a western, democratic state with nuclear weapons in the middle east.

It's basically a major power base for the west in the predominantly arab part of the world.

Anything else is a side arguement as far as I'm concerned.

I see your threes and raise you fourteens! Snapped this just yesterday:)

It's one more than ten, so yeah, it's better.
