  Pet Web Site Forums - Nougat at vet
Ok folks Nougat is back home, she's ok, the vet said i need to keep her warm for tonight so i've brought in her old hutch that i had already disinfected this morning (thinking ahead) the hutch is now in here with me so that i can keep an eye on her.
Well folks Nougat has done me proud, she has healed up really well also she was well behaved in the vets no growling or running away once she was out of the box, also when we took her in the car she was laide full stretch and looked so relaxed it was unbelievable.
Nougat is coming round slowly but surely, she comes to the hutch door when there is food on offer, she stills runs away and growls if i go to take her out of the hutch though but i'll get there with her in time.

 OPERATION NOUGAT - 1961 : 1962
The assignment of tests to individual "operations" between this time and the end of atmospheric testing is confused and complicated by several overlapping operations - Nougat, Dominic (or Dominic I), Sunbeam (or Dominic II), Fishbowl, Storax, and Roller Coaster.
The available documentation on these operations is somewhat unclear unclear or confusing, and it may be that in some cases a shot may be officially included in more than one operation.
Nougat generally resembles Hardtack II in the nature of testing that was conducted.

Among the other activities, the operational helicopter tests performed by the Marine Corps were designed to investigate the capability of helicopters and their crews to withstand a nuclear burst and its effects (11: 1).
Operation DOMINIC I was conducted with four primary objectives: to develop nuclear weapons (the 29 airdrops); to study the effects of nuclear detonations (the five high-altitude bursts); to test the Polaris weapon system (the FRIGATE BIRD event); and to test the Navy nuclear antisubmarine rocket (Shot SWORDFISH) (23: 1).
Operation DOMINIC II was conducted during the period of Operation STORAX but was not a part of STORAX (24: 19,20).

Operation Dominic (which also been called Dominic I), conducted between 25 April and 4 November of 1962 (and thus overlapping Nougat and Storax); and which included the Department of Defense (DoD) Operation Fishbowl high-altitude tests in the Pacific.
In addition security of the test operation could be ensured, a considerable concern at a time that a major land war was raging in Asia, and the possibility of direct conflict with China and the Soviet Union was feared.

This was an experimental shot, the first of a planned family of light weight, high-fusion/low-fission devices which were intended to increase the yield-to-weight ratio of ICBM warheads.
The later zero-yield atmospheric plutonium dispersal tests conducted in Operation Roller Coaster are however listed as "nuclear tests" by the U.S. government and counted as part of the total of U.S. nuclear tests.

Speaking as both a conscientious confectioner and responsible geophysicist, I cannot condone nuclear testing of any kind, and I hope I have shown the futility of doing so outside the scrutiny of the world.
If, however, you wish to test earth-shattering, explosively delicious nougat, then I suggest replacing desert alluvium, which can be quite gritty, with pure Belgian cocoa, which is absolutely divine.
