Football badges etc mean jack ****, but it would be dumb to sack Adkins if we don't go up this season.

Surely that's worse, leaving someone to slowly bleed to death without helping.? Either way the system is ****ed up. The government should introduce a common sense court, a team of judges that can over-rule any other court in the land for cases like this.

..which the scientists take into account when doing their measurements.

Sounds daft but according to NASA Novermber was the hottest on record... http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2010november/ Back to the cold air in Europe: is it possible that reduced Arctic sea ice is affecting weather patterns? Because Hudson Bay (and Baffin Bay, west of Greenland) are at significantly lower latitudes than most of the Arctic Ocean, global warming may cause them to remain ice free into early winter after the Arctic Ocean has become frozen insulating the atmosphere from the ocean. The fixed location of the Hudson-Baffin heat source could plausibly affect weather patterns, in a deterministic way — Europe being half a Rossby wavelength downstream, thus producing a cold European anomaly in the trans-Atlantic seesaw. Several ideas about possible effects of the loss of Arctic sea ice on weather patterns are discussed in papers referenced by Overland, Wang and Walsh. http://www.arctic.noaa.gov/reportcard/atmosphere.html While 2009 showed a slowdown in the rate of annual air temperature increases in the Arctic, the first half of 2010 shows a near record pace with monthly anomalies of over 4°C in northern Canada. There continues to be significant excess heat storage in the Arctic Ocean at the end of summer due to continued near-record sea ice loss. There is evidence that the effect of higher air temperatures in the lower Arctic atmosphere in fall is contributing to changes in the atmospheric circulation in both the Arctic and northern mid-latitudes. Winter 2009-2010 showed a new connectivity between mid-latitude extreme cold and snowy weather events and changes in the wind patterns of the Arctic; the so-called Warm Arctic-Cold Continents pattern.

It's impossible know wether it was Pardew messing up or Pardew being undermined that was the problem.

We could still easily finish the season as champions, strengthening the team in january would be vital. I don't think Cortese making statements like "I am not contemplating anything other than automatic promotion" is helping in any way though. Reminds me of Lowe's "want to be challenging for Champions League" statement. Obviously promotion is more achievable than that but it still adds to the weight of expectation on the player's shoulders. A couple of good signings and we will get promoted IMO.

Them picking the wrong brother will do more for the future of the Conservative party than anything Dippy Dave does.

She was a c*nt but she was good at war. Belgrano, Iranian Embassy and Irish shoot to kill were her highlights.

Make savings where possible but hit the highest earners with MASSIVE tax increases. Too much greed in the world today

You can get promoted spending peanuts, but if "you don't want to contemplate not getting promoted THIS season" and your team is currently the 9th best in the division, you have to throw the cheque book at it to stand a decent chance.

What's the point of going to uni when you can get 44K a year by driving a ****ing train. When I was 10 I actually wanted to be a train driver as well, ****ing ****s, **** off.

We just need to spend sh!t loads of money in January, that's the only way to stand a good chance of promotion. 2 or 3 players who walk into the side.

I can't believe he has been locked up, the charges against him are daft. So so corrupt.

I earn decent money so you don't have to feel sorry for me, my mates who earn more all have their own companies. The elitist thing is fine, I agree, just don't think it should be decided by wealth.

So would I. All i know is that if I had just finished my A levels now, I wouldn't go to uni. When I went it was free, I received a grant, my parents helped with the rent, I also had a job - and I still ended up in debt. After 3 years of living like a scumbag and hard work I got a good degree and now earn decent money doing a job I enjoy but many of my mates who didn't go to uni still earn more. It was hard enough spending 3 years living like a tramp watching my mates earn decent cash, but to do so knowing I would be upto 50K more in debt than them at the end of it - no way. Don't forget being a student you now have the fees debt piled on top of your living costs debt (real debt), overdrafts (which the bank call in), credit cards ect

I think you will find they qualify for a grant at the moment, I'm not sure. Give me an example...

It's still a debt regardless of how you pay it back, and either students will be put off or they won't, you seem to contradict yourself.

So companies including Pricewaterhouse Coopers, Deloitte and KPMG know students who can't afford it will be put off going to Uni, yet the same retards on here think no one will be put off with a 50K debt.

I was merely responding to the title of the thread, I'm sorry it it came across as condescending, I really don't have anything against you uneducated types.

My mate from Uni did film studies and we all took the ****, now he's earning **** loads making TV programmes. Not really an interesting fact but shows how not all film graduates work in the film industry. I wonder how big the UK philosophy industry is, maybe we should scrap all those courses? Universities are about furthering knowledge, they are not job training schemes. I think the less educated on here fail to understand that concept.

We could still win the league easily, the important thing is to spend some cash in January. Adkins has had to work with another manager's team judge him after he's had a chance to mould his own.

I think there's no point dicking about, we need to spend some serious cash in January if "we don't want to contemplate not getting promoted".

It's already been scientifically proven that liberals are more intelligent, it makes sense if you think about it (go on, give it go)... A study by Dr Kanazawa, published in Social Science Quarterly in March, based on the same data showed that young adults who identified themselves as "very liberal" had an average IQ of 106 while those who identified themselves as "very conservative" had an average IQ of 95. "The ability to think and reason endowed our ancestors with advantages in solving evolutionarily novel problems for which they did not have innate solutions. As a result, more intelligent people are more likely to recognise and understand such novel entities and situations than less intelligent people, and some of these entities and situations are preferences, values, and lifestyles," Dr Kanazawa said. Humans are evolutionarily designed to be conservative, caring mostly about their family and friends. Being liberal and caring about an indefinite number of genetically unrelated strangers is evolutionarily novel. So more intelligent children may be more likely to grow up to be liberals.

According to Wikipedia again the country with the 2nd best standard of living is Australia who have a minority labor government. That's the first and second best countries with left wing governments, case closed I think.

According to Wikipedia, Norway has the highest standard of living and it is run by The Red-Green Coalition which is a centre-left coalition of Norwegian parties, formed by the Labour (Ap), the Socialist Left Party (SV), and the Centre Party. Another one to the left...
