90 years ago, Walt and Roy Disney start what is known as the Walt Disney Company. It started as the Disney Brothers Cartoon studio. Walt Disney created a short film entitled Alice's Wonderland.
In 1986, the name was officially changed to the Walt Disney Company. Steve Jobs was a shareholder and board member. Walt Disney Studios is one of the largest in Hollywood with networks ESPN, ABC, A&E and more.
I think I've found something I've not yet covered! This gets difficult sometimes trying to think of things. Anyway brätwurst, my favourite kinda sausage for a hot dog. The pathetic pieces of "meat" you get in the UK that constitutes a hotdog (I'm sure it's off cuts of chicken and pork) are just no good. Sure, they fill a hole and they taste alright, but brätwurst is better by far!
It's a shame that I can only get in once a year for a few weeks when the Christmas markets are on in Manchester. Other than that, I never seem to be able to find it. I realise people tend to shove loads of onions and peppers and sauces on their brätwurst when in hotdog configuration, but I'm not a fan of all that. If anything is going on it, it's curry sauce. And this is where the currywurst is born.
You can obviously get brätwurst with all the normal trimmings but at a few of the stalls at the Christmas markets you can get currywurst. It is the single greatest use of that kind of curry sauce that exists. Bear in mind, this curry sauce is like the curry sauce you'd get at a chippy, instead of proper sauce from say an Indian restaurant.
From just a quick look up it appears that the curry sauce is different in Germany. Apparently there it's like a tomato ketchup sauce but with curry powder added? Peace-Dcan you confirm?
Mouseover: "Don't forget to add another term for "probability that the Modified Bayes' Theorem is correct."."
I lived in Germany for 3 years and loved every shopping trip getting a Currywurst from the Bratty wagon by the doors. My reward for going food shopping.
Absolutely confirmed! Here in Germany it's really rather a ketchup sauce with curry powder, but recipes for homemade sauce can vary on a huge scale. For example, some people use cola or small amounts of apple mash mixed into it. My mum made it once with cola, tasted waaaaaay better, but definitely didn't help the amount of sugar that's already inside of ketchup.
Now I want Christmas market as well :( Get some good warm drinks (hot chocolate with cream and vodka *drools*) and some greasy meaty food afterwards, like the Bratwurst. But it definitely has to be thick sausage, not that pre-boiled stuff and the bun it comes with has to be a REAL bun, not the soft fluffy hotdog bun. Add ketchup and/or mustard and you're set. Or get it with chips instead of a bun. Then you get it pre-cut and with curry sauce. Omnomnomnom.
Bratwurst in general has to look like this, if you didn't get, what I was typing :D Senf = Mustard.
QOTD is awesome and XKCD remembered me too much of my science study times, which I happily quit after two semesters, so I didn't even read it entirely.
Acquiring Bratwurst - two immediate options for me - go to Lidl, or go to our local butcher. I've yet to find something he can't make well.
Have you tried looking in Aldi or Lidl for your brätwursts? I'm sure they do them there too. Not the same as in the Christmas Markets, but still good. I always end up at the one in Birmingham.
On a side note: how come you guys call it brÄtwurst, when it's brAtwurst in German, where - I guess - it originates from?
Brats are awesome. Hope I can get one at lunch. They're seasonal at my usual lunch place, and they've been missing for about a week.
I grew up going to Disneyland, and worked with a guy in the early '80s that restored Walt's office desk for the family. It was a beautiful piece.
The probability that the probability is accurate equals zero due to GIGO.
QOTD: And a little luck.
I don't know that I've ever had bräts with curry sauce of either style, I'll have to give that a try sometime.
That's a lot of probability.
Bratwurst with sauerkraut and a good spicy brown mustard (yellow mustard if I must).
I love most sausage and meat in general, but brats are one of the few I don't care for. I don't know what it is. There's something about the flavor of the juiciness I can't get past. If I do choose to eat them, they have to be grilled or cooked on the skillet and super crispy on the outside.
Disney. A company I love to hate and hate to love. They're a part of so so many children's childhoods, and they've done a great job with Marvel Studios and a decent job with Lucasfilm. I rue the day I have children and they ask to go to Disney World. Going to a place like that sounds like a horrible nightmare.
Bratwursts are the best wurst.
Aldi/Lidl do both bratwursts and chilliwursts. Both are amazing. I can't eat regular sausages anymore.
Brats have become and American staple at barbeques and tailgating. Sauerkraut is a must. Period.
Ah, Brats. I know them well. And here in Milwaukee, we not only eat them -- but we watch them race around baseball stadiums as well.
Being from Wisconsin and it being full of German heritage and having visited Germany I can say without a doubt, the Germans know their way around a sausage.
Living in German America (The midwest) Bratwurst is everywhere, we eat bratwurst more often than hot dogs unless you're a kid usually. I only accept eating bratwurst with a really coarse, strong horseradish mustard, and some warm sauerkraut.
Are you sure Bollywood doesn't own Disney?
Once you include probability of user error, you'll need more chalk boards.
I used to have that phone! Of course mine was much cleaner but it was a rotary phone and eventually I just had to stop using it.
I've had Brats before here in America, but I do wonder if it tastes different in the UK. They're generally treated like hot dogs, and since moving to the Midwest I've noticed they're more popular here than where I was born and raised on the east coast.
I'd like to try some Curry sauce, too! It sounds tasty!

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED
WE ARE NOW IN A CLIMATE EMERGENCY
It's not something that we need to avoid by 2030.
It's already here and impacting life on earth.
THE EFFECTS
These aren't projections, these are catastrophes that are already happening.
Each year, air pollution alone kills 7 million people.
The impact of extreme natural disasters is equivalent to a global loss of $520 billion in annual consumption, and forces some 26 million people into poverty each year.
Warmer temperatures are linked to a 2 percent increase in mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, and even PTSD.
The effects of the climate crisis have cost U.S. taxpayers more than $350 billion over the past decade.
Government Accountability Office
In just the first six months of 2019, 7 million people were displaced due to the effects of extreme weather.
The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre
We know. It's bad… But, we can't give up.
As you can see, lives across the globe depend on our action. It is essential that we all become a part of the movement and raise our voices together. Here are three global leaders you can join.
An international environmental organization whose mission is to end the use of fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy by building a global, grassroots movement.
A global environmental movement using nonviolent civil disobedience to compel government action and avoid tipping points in the climate system, biodiversity loss, and the risk of social and ecological collapse.
An international movement of school students, started by then 15-year-old Greta Thunberg, who 'skip' class on Fridays to participate in demonstrations and demand action to prevent the climate crisis.

Time to celebrate some of the great conservation teams we have had the honour to work with
Conservation in a connected landscape: Restoring Queensland's wetlands to protect the Great Barrier Reef
At WildTeam we are incredibly lucky to work with some amazing conservation teams around the world. We have been providing training and consultancy support to NQ Dry Tropics since 2016, and in this issue, we look at their work.
The Great Barrier Reef is a UNESCO World Heritage Area, renowned for its extraordinary natural beauty and unique habitats rich in biodiversity. The health of the reef is declining, however, due to a range of threats. One of these is pollution from water flowing into the reef lagoon from surrounding farmland, which has been enriched with chemical fertilisers.
Such pollution can, to some extent, be mitigated through the buffering effects of coastal wetland areas which filter run-off and control water flow. The Bowling Green Bay wetland area in particular is important in this regard, and has been designated a Ramsar site, both for the ecosystem services which it provides to the reef, and for its own biodiversity value as an internationally significant breeding site for waterfowl and wading birds.
In turn, however, land management and agricultural practices in wetland areas adjacent to, but not within the Ramsar designated site, influence the health of the Bowling Green Bay wetlands, affecting not only the biodiversity found there, but also their capacity to perform the ecosystem services which are so important for the Great Barrier Reef.
Everything is connected.
NQ Dry Tropics is a not-for-profit, community-based organisation promoting sustainable management of land, water, plants and animals across an area of over 140,000km2 in the dry tropics of North Queensland, Australia. Over the past decade they have been working in the Burdekin Delta, an area adjacent to the Bowling Green Bay wetland which is important for sugar cane production, to promote agricultural and land management practices which reduce degradation to the Bowling Green Bay wetlands, while maintaining the livelihoods of local farmers. In particular, they have been working with farmers to reduce nitrogen input, introduce better controlled irrigation systems and restore seasonal water flow patterns.
And they have achieved some fantastic results. In a 3-year pilot study which paid farmers to reduce nitrogen use by at least 5%, the average reduction was in fact around 20%. Moreover, not a single farmer participating in the project reported reduced yields, but rather their overall profit margins increased due to reduced expenditure on fertiliser. Although the project has ended, the farmers are now looking for ways to further reduce their nitrogen use, given the beneficial impact on their incomes.
Other projects to control invasive plants and encourage riparian vegetation, improve irrigation systems and restore seasonal water flow patterns, have reduced the flow of nitrogen-enriched water into the water course, and improved downstream ecological function and habitat quality.
This work is helping to improve the environmental quality of the Burdekin Delta and Bowling Green Bay wetlands, reduce the threats to the Great Barrier Reef, while at the same time enhancing the livelihoods of local farmers. A win-win-win! Don't you love it when that happens?

Ethiopian wolves are the most endangered canid on the planet. They are found only in the mountains of Ethiopia, where fewer than 500 individuals survive in small populations, threatened by habitat loss and disease.
The Ethiopian Wolf Conservation Programme (EWCP), which is part of Oxford University's Wildlife Conservation Research Unit (WildCRU), was founded in 1995 by Claudio Sillero and Karen Laurenson, with the mission of securing viable and ecologically functioning Ethiopian wolf populations and habitats for the future. WildTeam have been working with EWCP since 2017 to help them infuse our project management processes into their work.
Rabies in particular is one of the main threats which the wolves face. It has the potential to kill up to 70% of individuals in an area. So when we caught up with Dr Jorgelina Marino, the team's Science Director, in April 2019, she was excited the tell us about their new initiative.
In the past couple of years the team have begun an oral rabies vaccination program, inoculating wolves before they ever get infected. The introduction of this program is the result of many years of hard work and represents a major breakthrough for wolf conservation. Firstly, the team don't need to trap and handle wolves to vaccinate them, with benefits in terms of animal welfare and reduced costs. With the need to handle the animals removed, the governments were also willing to give permission for the preventive vaccination program to go ahead, as opposed to the usual emergency vaccination approach, reacting to an outbreak, by when several wolves were already infected and died.
The hope is that the preventative vaccination program will mean that major rabies outbreaks are a thing of the past and that the future of these beautiful animals is little bit rosier than it was before.

FREE BEST PRACTICES


Square footage, decor, lifestyle, and house cleaning frequency are a few factors we consider when determining your house cleaning rate.
Your house cleaning rate varies upon the cleaning service you need.
Initial Cleaning – This is your first cleaning and is the starting point for a cleaner, healthier home. We focus on build-up and it is the first step to beginning your re-occurring maintenance cleanings.
Reoccurring Cleaning – This is your scheduled cleaning, after your initial cleaning, and is the best way to maintain a clean and healthy home. We offer weekly, biweekly, tri-weekly, and monthly cleaning schedules.
Just Kitchens, Bathrooms, & Floors – For monthly clients, we offer this cleaning option between their re-occurring cleaning. This maintenance cleaning will clean your kitchen(s), bathrooms, and vacuum and mop all floors in the home. It is more affordable than your re-occurring cleaning and allows you to get out of cleaning these areas in between our cleaning services.
A' La Carte Cleaning – This itemized cleaning offers extra cleaning options to get your home just the way you want. These services can be added to your re-occurring cleaning service.
We can create a customized estimate based upon your cleaning needs and budget.


Every insurance company has a different pricing policy and different base plans because of which your final insurance quote will look different from different insurers. This not only depends on the name, age and model of your car, but also on the various components of the insurance policy, the base rate and pricing structure of the company. Thus, you ought to compare car insurance from different insurance companies to get an idea of the industry rates. This will allow you to pick up the insurer who is offering you the best premium policy at the lowest price.
Online comparison empowers you to vary some of your key inputs and calculate the premium cost almost instantly. These key inputs, in the case of car insurance, are Insured Declared Value and voluntary deductibles. Both these factors have a significant impact on your car insurance premium. Higher the IDV and lower the voluntary deductible, higher will be your premium amount. Thus, you can weigh the two and set them as per your needs and requirements. An online comparison allows you to customize each one of them and see their individual effect.
Car Insurance add-on covers are very powerful and can help you get the best policy at a reasonable price. In case you do not know which cover is the best for your car, you can compare it on online aggregator's website and get a detailed idea about each one of them. Not all companies offer the same set of add-ons; hence you can compare it for multiple companies and select the one that best matches your requirements.
Most of the companies give attractive discounts on car insurance in view of attracting new customers and beat the competition. You can easily get an idea of the discount offered by each company and their terms and conditions therein. When you compare the car insurance, you will come to know which policy gives you the maximum discount for your car. Everybody loves the discount, but it is important that you do not miss on the key features of the policy in lieu of a discount.
Most of the comparison tools give a comprehensive comparison of the policy from different vendors. This also includes comparing the star rating of the company, their feedback from the clients and the reviews by the customers. These reviews and ratings often play an important role in influencing your decision. Thus, it is worthwhile that you go through these ratings in details and get a clear idea about the insurance company and the plans available to them.
In case of renewing your car insurance, NCB can play a key role in determining the final premium amount of your car. NCB is the discount offered on your insurance for the next year in case you do not make any claim in the current year. Although the NCB percent is standard, you can still account for this factor while comparing your final premium costs from all the insurance companies.
It is true that buying a new car insurance policy or renewing an existing policy may sometimes look to be a challenging task. But with several online aggregator websites and comparison tools available, you can get a clear picture about all the policies in one go. You can not only compare the same policy from different vendors, but may also compare different policies offered by a single vendor. Thus a detailed comparison will give you a clear idea of all the policies available and help you select the best one for your car.


The Firefox-maker pitches a new idea to prevent Internet "fast lanes."
Mozilla is urging the Federal Communications Commission to enact new rules to bar Internet service providers from charging websites for faster service.
In a filing with the FCC on Monday, the nonprofit foundation that makes the Firefox Web browser outlined a new legal path to enact tough network-neutrality regulations.
Chris Riley, a senior policy engineer for Mozilla, said the group's proposal is "grounded in a modern understanding of technology and markets" and would "help ensure that the Internet continues to be an innovative and open platform."
The filing introduces a new angle to the debate over regulation of Internet access, but it's unclear how interested the FCC will be in Mozilla's proposal.
In January, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the FCC's old neutrality rules. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler wants to rework the rules in a way that can survive future court challenges.
His proposal would bar Internet providers from blocking any websites but (unlike the old rules) would allow them to charge for special "fast lanes" in at least some cases. The FCC is set to vote on whether to move ahead with Wheeler's proposal on May 15.
Liberals are outraged that the FCC would allow Internet fast lanes, saying it would allow ISPs to pick winners and losers and would tilt the Internet in favor of the largest corporations.
Consumer advocacy groups are urging the FCC to reclassify broadband Internet service as a Title II "telecommunications service" — a move that would dramatically expand the FCC's legal authority and allow it to reinstate strong rules that ban fast lanes. But reclassifying the Internet under Title II of the Communications Act would prompt a massive backlash from Republicans and business groups, who warn the FCC would be granting itself new unchecked regulatory powers and would risk stifling the growth of broadband networks.
In its filing Monday, Mozilla proposed a third option. The FCC should use the Title II option — but only for the relationship between websites and ISPs, not the relationship between consumers and ISPs, the group said.
The proposal would allow the FCC to bar ISPs from charging websites for fast lanes while still using the current light regulatory regime for other Internet issues that affect consumers, the group said.
Mozilla argued that its proposal is not "reclassification" because the FCC has never explicitly defined the relationship between ISPs and Web companies.
"With our proposal, the FCC would be able to shift its attention away from authority questions once and for all, and focus instead on adopting clear rules prohibiting blocking and discrimination online," Riley wrote in a Mozilla blog post.
Harold Feld, a senior vice president for the consumer group Public Knowledge, applauded the proposal, which he said is a "novel idea" for saving net neutrality.
He said the filing is significant not only because of the substance of the proposal but also because of who is making it. The cable industry has been warning against tough regulation, but Mozilla's filing shows that powerful business interests are on the side of net neutrality, Feld said.
"This creates a new constituency that says Title II is not a 'nuclear option.' Title II is a technical thing that you've got to do," Feld said.
But Mozilla's proposal may not be much more politically viable than the full-scale Title II option.
Berin Szoka, president of the libertarian group TechFreedom, said the "practical effect of their proposal would be almost exactly the same as reclassification of broadband generally." He said that the idea looks easy on paper but that in practice it would be "messy, slow, and unpredictable."
"Opening the door to Title II at all would still create significant regulatory uncertainty that would harm broadband investment, and thus make consumers worse off," Szoka claimed.
