The Schrodinger's cat collection

Fee-fi-fo-fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman, Be he alive, or be he dead I'll grind his bones to make my bread. The grand old Duke of York, He had ten thousand men; He marched them up to the top of the hill, And he marched them down again. And when they were up, they were up, And when they were down, they were down, And when they were only half-way up, They were neither up nor down.

H1N1

H1N1 has a high probability of becoming a lung destroying virus, if you look at how allergic reactions happen in people, you can see that its not the first contact that kills you, its when you come in contact with it a second time! Seen as death occurs from an immune response to the virus in new outbreaks, it is more likely to be second contact that will kill most people with a Cytokine Storm .

Dalton Bank Nature Reserve

Dalton Bank nature reserve, just behind what used to be the ICI chemical factory. There is still is a chemical factory, just nowhere near as big as ICI used to be. Aparently according to my Grandma the Germans failed to find Huddersfields ICI works in World War 2, although at the moment it looks like a bomb site. The biggest threat to workers at the factory from what i could find was this :- " At the ICI factory, workers were sometimes accidentally gassed while manufacturing chemicals, and had to be taken to moors above the Colne Valley until they recovered.

In The Kitchen

Image
Just hot out of the oven (OK maybe i used a bread maker, but still... it smells lovely!) Chili cheese bread! Made with lancashire cheese and not Cheddar as the recipe suggested. Lancashire cheese is so much nicer than cheddar when used in bread making, I've added three hot chillies to this. I know I can put more in or use scotch bonnets instead without it being too hot, but three seems to be just right. I Sauteed the chillies with a little bit of pepper and 1.5 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil.
