#Britain unveiled a contingency trade policy that favors global giants such as #China over #EU countries in case of a messy divorce from the bloc. London is bracing for the worst as it races toward the March 29 #Brexit deadline without a plan for unwinding its 46-year involvement in the European project. A 'no-deal' split would bring an end to the current free trade arrangements between Britain and its EU partners overnight.

Britain’s shift of attention to China is most vividly displayed by the complete elimination of tariffs on its massive aluminum and steel mills. The benefits would also stretch to big metals producer Russia - a potentially sensitive issue considering the chilly state of London’s affairs with Moscow. Cheaper metals are a boon for Britain’s troubled car producers. The sector is a vital employer in smaller cities and would get the additional help thanks to tariff-free imports of components.

I am very sad to hear +Uwe Duwe passed away. He was one of my inspirations with his wonderful self portraits, his bokehlicios still lifes, his #ohrwurmmondays and his generous and humorous nature. You will be missed!
(And in a way I still hope this is a big misunderstanding and he will show up with a selfie, holding a smoking a cigarette between his fingers, just shaking his head.)

President Donald #Trump inserted himself back into #Britain's #Brexit debate, saying he was prepared to negotiate a 'large scale' #tradeagreement with the United Kingdom after it leaves the #EuropeanUnion. Trump's push for a #tradedeal, however, belies the nature of Britain's Brexit complexity and the reason why lawmakers have both rejected leaving with 'no deal' and May's painstakingly negotiated pact.

The biggest issue facing #UK lawmakers is the issue of the so-called Irish backstop, a means by which Britain can ensure that, regardless of what happens during its negotiated transition from the bloc, a hard border between Northern Ireland, a U.K. territory, and the Republic of Ireland, an EU member state, will never be put in place.

looks like we have lost the last of the free speech stations , Judge Pirro was not on her usual spot on Saturday night ,and FOX is not making statements on the incident . but if the station is going to censor their anchors then America has lost a good friend.
And this crap of not being able to voice your opinion is a real blow to Free Speech , let fox know what you think on this subject

This video will show you how to flip the layout of an android phone from ltr to rtl

Reality and Perception: The Philosophy of The Matrix.

"Simulation is the imitation of the operation of the real world, process, or system over time. The growth of simulacra - copies indistinguishable from reality - drifts us into this new reality."

I will tell you our story again, one last time, as you lay on this old bed. Stay with me. Stop it twisting away from me.

My Great Grandparents rode down the cliffs on horse. My grandparents followed a decade later. After exploring the caves, they left the horses behind and trekked to the Blue Lake and then to these cascades to swim under the waterfall.

More images: www.silenttheory.net

The remote Cave House back at the caves has not entered either of the last two centuries with any enthusiasm. If you visit and stay (and you should) you will enjoy all the spartan comforts of cold war era tourism under paintings of the wives of bygone Governors of the Colony. In the smoking lounge you will sit in the company of the ghosts of those who dined here before leaving for the Great War. The food will be wholesome and you will fall in love and when you leave here, your life will never be the same.

Image: A panorama of 5 shots, hand focused, and toned for structure (the underlying rock has interesting tones and patterns, showing some signs of tool sharpening, patterned so as to evoke a hexagonal pattern in water spray from certain view points).

Something is Pushing the Milky Way Through the Universe at 1.2 million mph

You can’t feel it, but our planet is orbiting the Sun at speeds of roughly 100,000 km/h (62,000 mph), and something is making our Milky Way galaxy move through the Universe at more than 2 million km/h (1.2 million mph).

The research has been published in Nature Astronomy.

MeWe Google+ Importer is live (but it's not clear how exactly it works)

I read through their instructions for exporting your Google+ data and importing into MeWe and the good news is that it seems very easy to do. However, I have a few questions about how it works exactly which I'd like to see answered before trying it.

1. The instructions say to include your Google+ Circles data in your Google Takeout archive. It's not clear what MeWe uses this data for.

2. The instructions say to include our Google+ Communities data in your archive. Since the Google+ Communities Takeout archive now includes all posts in the public Communities you own or moderate by default (unless you de-select them), it's not clear to me what MeWe does with those. Do they all get imported as posts on your own MeWe profile? I hope not.

3. The process looks like it happens in two steps. The first step is that you upload the Google Takeout archive zip files to MeWe, and then from those MeWe imports your public posts. But I'd like to know what happens then to the zip files you uploaded that may include private posts as well (I know mine does).

4. Free MeWe accounts offer 8GB storage. If your images use more storage space than that, you will need to pay $4.99/month for 50GB storage. So what happens if your Google+ archive has more than 8GB of photos? Does it only work to import if you have already paid for more storage?

I'd be happy to hear from anyone who knows the answers or can share their own experience.
