Pale As Milk - Karl Larsson

Milk as Milk Should Be (Tesco Finest Channel Island Milk)

Advantages: delicious
Disadvantages: more expensive, slightly more calories

I have gone back to buying this milk recently, not as the main milk, as it's too expensive for that, but as a nicer extra. It's a full fat milk and it comes from Guersney and Jersey cows, what is sometimes referred to in ck books as gold-top milk. It's either non-homogenised or less homogenised which allows the cream to come up to the top.

The only reason I'm mentioning it is because while there, I hunted down a few rare, and not-so-rare samples of the local produce, beer-wise, that is. One of the less rare beers was PALE RIDER, which I could've bought at my local store, but I didn't. I think the fact that traipsed nearly 200 miles to buy it (not specifically, of course) proves my dedication to the cause. The KELHAM ISLAND BREWERY of Sheffield began life in 1990 and in fact, was the first new independent brewery to be built in the city this century. Since then all of Sheffield's larger brewing concerns have closed down, which ironically (no pun intended) now also makes it Sheffield's largest brewery. Using only the finest ...

Review of Pale Rider

KARL MARX'S COMMUNIST MANIFESTO

Advantages: Fantastic Philosophy to an important word movement,
Disadvantages: Quite short, doesn't go into the detail of Das Kapital

*****History***** The Communist Manifesto was initially published in 1848 (in London), although the text was originally in German. The first English translation was created in 1850. It was commissioned by the Communist League and to lay out the League's intentions and program. The Manifesto had a great number of editions from 1872 to 1890, with important prefaces written by Marx and Engels for the 1872 German edition, 1882 Russian edition, 1883 German edition, 1888 English edition. *****The Authors***** Although the names of Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx appear as joint-authors, Engels has stated that it was "essentially Marx's work" Most recent researchers believe that "the actual drafting of The Communist Manifesto was done exclusively by Marx." *****Synopsis***** The Manifesto is separated into five sections ...
