2 AnswersCooking & Recipes1 decade agobarn and mud swallows?
In all my years (69) of observing barn and mud swallows that are prevalent in this part of Canada (British Columbia). I have never seen a bird of this species ever land on a tree branch or for that matter any part of a tree.

1 AnswerBirds1 decade agoiserting items into an egg without showing signs of entry through the shell?
Recently a friend of mine told me that she had cracked an egg and inside was a dime. She mentioned it to the farmer that she procured this egg from and he mentioned that chickens sometimes swallow objects that show up inside the egg. Now, knowing that this is not true. She then asked around and other people also found items inside the eggs purchased from this farmer and querried him and he just smiled.
Now does anyone out there know how this trick is done without showing any marks or any signs on the shell that would indicate any intrusion?

2 AnswersGoogle1 decade agogas prices?
Why won't our elected officials here in Canada bow out of the OPEC treaty and charge for fuel like Venezuela does. I understand that their fuel prices are just pennies a GALLON. They do not belong to the OPEC. So why can't our nations do the same. We have enough reserves here in Canada to look after our nations for many years down the road without having to import. WHY????????
3 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHow can it be justified to have organic food to cost more than conventionally raised food?
When raising conventional food, one uses pecticieds as compared to natural pesticides with organic (organic less expensive). Chemical fertilizers compared to organic fertilizers (organic natural and less expenisive ie manures etc)
How can this justify the higher cost of organic food as compared to commercially grown (less expensive) and having to purchase chemicals etc. Doing artifical pollination as oposed to natural pollination. The list goes on and onl. This boggles my mind. I know from my own garden by not having to spend money on poisons and artificial fertilizers it costs me less to grow vegatables than if I used chemicals and other artificial means.
Then why are we being charged more for a vegatable or a piece of meat that has no chemicals that are costly to produce, distribute, and apply as compared to natural herbicides, fertilizers, etc. that are plentiful and less expensive to use?
6 AnswersOther - Home & Garden1 decade agoRoyal Canadian Mounted Police?
Part of the uniform of the RCMP is a pair of trousers that starting around the hips become very wide and just above the knee, taper to hug the leg. This is used exclusively for parades and show. At one time this was the standard part of the uniform. I believe these trousers are called "breeches" or breeks. Now, can someone out there tell my why and what was the purpose of this style of pants. Was there any practical reason for this. Perhaps some RCMP member reading this can answer this for me.
