  1. Foxy...
  2. Apart from GM, I cant see anyone "hating" Pinnacle. A few are getting fed up with the delays (with reason IMHO), but I cant see a groundswell of anti-Pinnacle postings on here.
  3. I dont feel that Pinnacle stand much of a chance of getting it sorted either; but I dont know all the fact, I haven't read all the legal docs, the ins and outs, the clauses and caveats, the confidential notes, and signed contracts.
  4. Interesting concept, but surely SFC are still a Football League club; after all, even if the "takeover" doesnt happen we could, in theory still play our fixtures this season whislt in Administration - a la Bournemouth (IIRC)
  5. Shocker. FOTA realise that they wouldn't get the same level of exposure (A1GP anyone?) and FIA realise that they need some big name.
  6. Sometimes I really do wonder if some pf the posters on here actually support SFC at all. The points deduction may or may not be fair; that I don't know about as I am not clued up on the whole ins and outs. But what I am sure of is that I personally fell that the FL asking us to sign away our right to appeal against the points deduction is out of order. IF Pinnacle feel that THEY have sufficient evidence to argue their case, why not let them? It isn't about if the points deduction is correct or not, as so far we have only heard the official FL view on this (that the points are fair). What we haven't heard officially are teh reasons that Pinnacle believe that the points are unfair. Without the "right to appeal" we will, probably, never hear this and therefore will not be able to make full judgement. So, I ask you Fry and Engine; why do you feel that SFC should have their right to appeal taken away? Im not talking about IF the point deduction is fair or not, Im talking about the fairness of taking away the right to appeal.
  7. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_Arbitration_for_Sport So you think it is fair that are not allows the right to appeal?
  8. The new Kasabian one. Liking it, I know they are love or hate but I really like them.
  9. Shocker.
  10. Carlin
  11. Well thats that solved then. Someone call Tony and Matt and tell then to get the lawyers to stand down.

  13. the chest of a space suit is hard and a fixed shape, so shouldnt* be moved by simple breathing. *having never worn one, I cannont confirm this
  14. why would it ae moving? No wind, on gravity. Stand still and he you apply Newtons Third (?) law then you should stay still..
  15. Excellent news.
  16. "come in number 12, your time is up, let someone else have a go..."
  17. I didnt mean you had to have a Hasselblad or the moon. The point was a bout how easy it is to get a decent composition with a wide angle lens if you simple point it in front of you from chest height. As for the dark, high ISO and some light (there are shadows...)
  18. Sorry, didnt see the reply! Come on, it simple. 'Blads are Medium Format cameras, whack on a wide angle lens with a small aperture and that will give you not only a vast depth of field, it should also capture anything 'in front' of you. As for how come all the photos are good, they are forgetting that NASA wont have released all the prints they took, plus it would be safe to say some cropping took place to straighten the horizons and make better composition. Grab your camera, crank it too ISO 800, f16+ on aperture priority, go out and hold it at your chest and see how many shots you would call ok after a little cropping.
  19. Cheers anyway Minty. Not keen on spunking a couple of hundred quid on a negative scanner for a bit of fun!
  20. Just some tips. Ive got an Epsom 4280 flatbed scanner with a (crap) neg holder that came with it. The scanner itself is fine, but I cant find a way to keep the negs flat whilst scanning, as the Epsom holder allows them to bend upwards so the images are really soft in the middle.
  21. Anyone on here scan film? Doesn't actually have to be 135, any size really... need help and pointers. Al? Minty? WSS? fitzhughfella?
  22. It was MS's own Fxx. As Ferrari only let you drive "your" Fxx where and when they say, they would only allow TG to put it round their track if MS did it.
  23. I really don't think that 0.2% (being generous with my figures) really implies anything to be honest.
  24. This is exactly my take on it.
  25. BBC video, this text along with it:
