These are supposed to be the translated instructions for growing some seeds on a Chia pet type plastic toy, flower box.
What are we really supposed to do. Do they just mean to put them in
warm water? Seriously, what kind of seeds can live through an hour of boiling.
What is that in the last picture???
it was cool seeing a chicken lay an egg and we saw a cow that just birthed a baby calf and still had the placenta hanging out of it.
Nice Pictures seeing that one chicken with the egg is wild, at first. But if you think about it, it is natural just never seen it before........
It's fascinating to see what people eat across the world and at what costs: :::link:::
Re: the 14% comment. It's about how much subsidized processed food people eat in general. I am sure you must have seen this famous set at some point :::link:::

One look at what people eat and how much they spend across the world tells you about the general health of the country.
I just read these insane facts about healthcare costs in US.
- The average cost to visit an urgent care clinic is less than $200, whereas a hospital emergency room visit usually costs at least $600 and often much more.
- Having a baby in the U.S. is expensive. Charges for routine delivery (including doctor?s fees) are about $6,000 — often more.
- The daily hospital stay for room and board and doctor's fees can be $2,500 ( and even more at some hospitals!), so an average stay of only three days costs $7,500. That amount does not include medicine, surgery, laboratory costs, and other similar expenses.
I guess the whole system of health is skewed in this country. The major stress - that should be on prevention, is completely non-existent. The entire system encourages bad habits and poor health and then taxes the individual (and the community through ill-advised subsidies) heavily for illnesses that develop due to these habits.
People may criticize social engineering, but the current wide chasm in the healthcare Vs. prevention balance cries out for shifting the stress to education about good eating habits and giving people the time and initiative to think about the well-being of their bodies for a change instead of travelling closer and closer to the sick part of the health spectrum every year.
