Tooth decay in children was already the chief cause of child hospitalisation before the pandemic. Covid-19 has put further pressures and restrictions on dental care in this country. SIR – For several years we have been warning of dentistry’s woes in England. Knowing how much Anne & others treasure multi-signature letters, I bring you this one… Fifty Rolls-Royce 660 megawatt units, which are virtually available “off the shelf”, seem an attractive option. But it cannot do this and remain green.Ĭarbon sequestration could provide a large part of the solution, but we still need an additional 30-40 gigawatts from nuclear. This is against the background of our current advanced gas-cooled reactors all being phased out by 2030 – so we are running just to stand still with regard to nuclear energy.Īfter 2030, the government should realise that there is little choice but to burn natural gas to fill the stable base-supply power gap of 90 gigawatts. We need not just three new nuclear stations at Hinkley Point, Sizewell, and Bradwell, giving us maybe 10 gigawatts, but another 10 to ensure a stable energy supply in time for the great environmental transition in 2030. The lack of a consistent energy-supply policy by successive governments since 2008 has meant that we are already unable to provide for our existing peak-energy demand when the weather is unfavourable. So we will have cold, unlit houses and gridlock on the roads when the sun isn’t shining and the wind not blowing. Renewables can only reach half this demand, and are intermittent. SIR – Peak energy provision in the UK is now at around 80 gigawatts, but the switch to electric cars and electric home and office heating systems will each require another 80 gigawatts. The real fear is that he will attack Iran (he doesn’t need the Chiefs for this) under some spurious excuse and leave the Biden administration with a Legacy of War that will poison its agenda for the next four years.īritain needs nuclear energy to meet demand In an unprecedented joint letter published in the Washington Post, the defence secretaries addressed the worst fears of what could happen in 17 days of Trump’s administration remaining before Joe Biden’s inauguration: an attempt by Trump to foment a crises with the aim of triggering a military intervention in his last-ditch struggle to hold on power.Īlthough this letter purports to be about warning Trump against carrying out a coup, this is simply misdirection as there is not the remotest possibility of the Chiefs of Staff agreeing to such an action. 4 January 2021.Īll 10 former US defence secretaries still living, including two who worked for Donald Trump, have called for the president and his supporters to accept he lost the election and warned against attempts to involve the military in his increasingly desperate efforts to overturn the result. Today, Sandeep is training to be a nurse.Leave military out of it, former defence secretaries tell Trump.
Sandeep Kaur aged 19, 10 years after the accident that ripped off her face and nearly claimed her life. They also did the battery charged heart thing. It has inspired a team of doctors in Louisville, Ky (very close to where I’m from) to attempt the first human face transplant. Sandeep’s operation is considered the world’s first full-face replant. Although they didn’t realize it at the time, Sandeep’s doctors were making history. There’s another photo of Sandeep Kaur after her groundbreaking face replant.
Sandeep arrived at the hospital unconscious with her face in a plastic bag. Sandeep Kaur’s face arrived in two pieces at a hospital in India where it was replanted onto her skull 10 years ago. Sandeep’s mother, who witnessed the accident, said: “I didn’t know where her face was.
The machine caught one of Sandeep’s braids and then pulled her head in. Here’s a family photo of little nine year old Sandeep Kaur before a grass cutting machine completely amputated her face and scalp.
