Banjo -> chocolate bar

The oldest ate it, was stopped in 2008 or so. Two bars in a package, part of Mars company. Hazelnut and not peanuts, remember it because our oldest had a sandpit friend allergic to peanuts.

Terrys Orange -> Regional

 

I am Guessing it is a regional Name/Brand? I have never heard of it before, or seen it mentioned in any media, although now with a quick google search, two well know supermarkets seem to stock some, and Takealot, the SA version of Amazon, seems to stock it...

Regional -> Montreal

I think it comes with a kind of *whack* meme...that you're supposed to whack the top of it till the sphere splits up into sectionals... I always think its going to be overwhelming but it always seems to hit correct balance... they just released a new flavor.. Popping rocks!

Montreal -> Montreux

We spend our honeymoon in the Swiss alpes. Montreux had some nice music events then. Best known probably Frank Zappa, not his concert, but the events around it. Deep Purple watched from the other side of the lake the burning casino.

Quote

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile, yeah
We didn't have much time now

Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground

Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
(Smoke) on the water, you guys are great

Oppenheimer -> Lise Meitner

The woman who did the theoretical work about the atom bomb, but:refused to build one when requested. So who was the better person, she or Oppenheimer. I prefer her german documentary movie over Oppenheimer. The name Meitner is not mentioned a single time in the Oppenheimer movie. She was a woman in a men's world. 48 times nominated for the Nobel Prize. never got one. Atleastthe heavyion institute which worked with my university named an element after her: Meitnerium.

I think it is a mistake that there is no Holywood movie about her life.

The baseline temperature of outer space is estimated at 2.7 kelvins (−270 °C; −455 °F); Absolute Zero is assessed (is taken) as −273.15 degrees Celsius. (I suppose that one could say, "The possibility is approaching zero.")

impossible => Mission

mission -> oil dumping

Before german reunion I was officer for signal interpretation and weapons on a <Breguet Atlantique sub-hunter plane. Our secondary mission were low speed low altitude flights over the baltic sea to spot for cargo ships polluting the sea with waste oil. With reunion and out of enemies (terrible mistake in the long run) I moved from flying to desk job, then expert for plane accidents with weapons involved, then leading an airfield firefighter group.

heart-breaking => animal abuse :ohmy:

I worked for a utility company for several years and would often find myself in neighborhoods where owners would have pets which were poorly cared for. Many had no water left in their water bowls on days which were well over 38°C. I would refill their empty bowls and later warn the owners. One day I encountered several mange-affected dogs fettered by long, thick chains. They were so badly affected by peeling skin that I felt that I had no choice; I contacted county animal control. There are laws which protect animals. But sadly, there are few infractions which are reported to authorities. :nooo:

animal abuse -> transylvanian street dogs

Tourists see the street dogs and bring them to Germany, Uk, France, .... But they don't care for them themself but bring them to animal care stations which are overfilled already. The problem is that on countryside nearly nobody wants them. They prefer puppies from local breeders and teach them while still being at the mother. Add that the street dogs are often too short haired for our colder climate.

For town people the dogs are often too agile and used to live on the streets. This is bad animal care in my eyes. Instead bringing dogs to overfilled animal care stations they should spend money to romanian animal protectors which try to reduce the number of dogs by catching and castrating.
