Digital Pregnancy Test Still Only Twinkles After Tinkle

Anyone reading the instructions from Barnacle Bill's Home Pregnancy Kit will find; "Ahoy maties! If ye water turns blue, a baby for you! If purple ye see, no baby thar be! If ye test should fail, to a doctor set sail!"

Unipath, a professional diagnostics production company, are set to clear the urinated waters of home test results with the news that they have developed a digital application, the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test, to confirm or deny pregnancy from the homely comfort of the urine stream.

The device has been developed to display an unmistakable result in words on a liquid crystal display— 'Pregnant' or 'Not Pregnant' —so as to eliminate any false reactions driven by a result in a certain colour. The choice of wording aligns itself with the legal default of alleged perpetrators who are given the status of guilty until they are proven innocent in a court of law.

Red Riding Trilogy
This is an attempt to understand the newish British television series Red Riding. Due to the regional accents, the muttering, the byzantine plot, and that British inability to provide subtitles, I am writing a detailed synopsis to get my head around this excellent television show. In short, it is nothing but spoilers, spoilers, spoilers...
Kitchen Antics - Chicken in Faux Ragoƻt
Ladder of flavour? A few rungs above bland. This can be constructed & delivered in less than 30 minutes, depending on your aptitude with a knife.
Lassitude abandons the Throwing Knives
Down on the chamber pot, the percolating smells brew up quite the nasal fest. From the wafting fumes, the air solidifies partial sweaty rock and musty punk, a taste hinting at delicious pockets of after-aftertaste, and the not so floral punch of an undone music interview leaves the tongue wanting something else.

Every detail makes the story worth following somewhere. Cooking up microfiction and life lessons as we review film, music, books, theatre and other aspects of culture.
It's all intrigue and conspiracy.
