Oi! I'll have you know he's currently rated as the 31st best player in the Norwegian second tier! http://lister.vg.no/?do=show&id=22824

True story, I am also Atticus, Dune, Jillsaint, Alpine, Turkish and Pancake. **** you and **** this ****ing place.

That's nearly all wrong! I can't believe you understood so little of it, especially as most of it is explained quite clearly earlier in this thread. Some of it was explained pretty broadly too. I found the Christian stuff a bit heavy handed. Jack dying so that everyone could live, with his father being called "Christian Shepherd".

What an unpleasant thing to do. He's clearly changed his name and not drawn attention to it for his own reasons. As far as I can see he hasn't offended anyone under his new name. Why do you feel the need to announce it to everyone?

Hold on there a minute! Wall = roof? and everyone's happy with that then?

Estimated cost of benefit cheats per year in the UK = 61 million pounds Estimated cost of tax cheats per year in the UK = 25 billion pounds It's the same over here though. Tax records are 100% in the public domain here, I can look up what any Norwegian earned last year on the net, and the the people you know are rich often have an income and personal fortune of zero.

Davies and Sydenham's records in the last 40 years don't put them top of the lists and that's what the question says.

Best= Lambert followed by Kevin Keegan Worst= Glenn ****erill

That is one country I would never visit. The worst violent crime stats in the world, and lots of criminals will be especially active during the world cup. The HIV/AIDS stats are off the scale, I think it's something like one in three of the female population between 25 and 35.

Pretty easy to answer really. Here's somebody more eloquent to explain things better and more entertainingly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGAOCVwLrXo&feature=related

You're an idiot. This isn't the case and never has been. It wasn't the reason in this story and it hasn't been the reason in any story. You believe tabloid journalism and rumour too much, but then you're the moron that said closing airports because of ash clouds was being PC.

Why are people going on about pompey going to the US. I can't see any proper reference to this anywhere. Can anybody give me a link for it that isn't just to an unfounded comment on a forum?

That is frankly laughable and shows pretty poor knowledge of football. There is no way you should have Belgium higher up than Brazil. Brazil should beat least ten places above Belgium. They're one of the best teams in the world FFS.

After the third series, Lost got its act together a bit and this last series has been OK, Heroes just got steadily worse after the first series.

There is a double page feature on him in my local newspaper here in Bergen.

Actually under our PR system and probably many others, most of those would get no seats at all. For example, in my county there are 14 seats. To get one of those you'd need to get about 7.5% of the votes in the county. Most other counties are smaller and thus have fewer MPs and so they'd each need an even higher percentage of the vote. I'm not sure how many areas BNP and UKIP managed so high a percentage, but I doubt either of them would get so many seats. I know Griffin got about 14% but with PR those voters would be spread out over a much bigger area and the percentage would drop a lot.
-
I gave this example of how it works back on the first page. So there are still local MPs, as well as normal local government obviously.
-
I can only speak for Norway, but here we vote in zones, usually counties. Each county gets a number of MPs based on its population. I think my county has 14 or 15. So those are your MPs. As you can see, that means regionally strong parties like in Wales, N.I. and Scotland would still get in. The number of MPs for each party out of those is proportionate to the votes. There are also some "levelling" seats distributed to try to make things even more fair. I don't think there is a perfectly fair system anywhere in the world, but PR seems to work well enough here and rather than going "down the economic pan" Norway is probably the strongest financially in Europe, or rather not in Europe.

Why do people use this idiotic phrase? One thing you should realise if you've been looking at this site for a while is there is always plenty of smoke without fire. This forum is made up of at least eighty percent unsubstantiated rumour. It's a stupid phrase on all levels though. If I were now to announce that I know you're a rapist, would you accept that there must be some truth in it, as there's no smoke without fire? It's a stupid thing to say and often quite damaging.

Most electricity here in Norway comes from a renewable source. There are no nuclear stations here at all.

How do you vote very strongly or moderately? Is it to do with how loudly you shout "aye" or "no"? Or is it the face you pull while you do it? Or is it how deep you make your voice go? -
Odd that we hear so much about the BNP, when it now seems clear that it's the Greens who are the fringe party people should start to take seriously. Gaining a seat from a major party when the BNP don't even seem to have come close.

Yes, but white people have never spat at black people, so we'll probably never know.
