Follow the trail from Georgie boy's links. The Daily Fail has "The continuing furore caused by The Mail on Sunday’s revelations – which will now be amplified by the return of the Arctic ice sheet – has forced the UN’s climate change body to hold a crisis meeting.

http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ "This is not surprising, as climate models consistently project that there will be large variations in summer ice extent from year to year. A cool summer can help to retain a thin layer of ice, increasing the overall ice extent. Conversely, a warm summer can help to remove much of the thin ice cover." http://www.skepticalscience.com/neverending-daily-mail-nonsense.html " Just what 'crisis meeting' is being referred to here? Well, the IPCC's website sets out the timetable and procedure for reviewing the forthcoming Fifth Assessment Report (AR5): Step 1: First Review (by Experts) Step 2: Second Review (by Governments and Experts) Step 3: Government Review of Final Draft SPM Step 4: Approval/Acceptance of SPMs and Working Group Reports Under step 4, the sub-timetable is as follows: For each Working Group report, the full reports will be accepted at the Working Group Session and their SPMs approved by IPCC member governments at the Working Group Session and then accepted at a Session of the Panel. These will take place as follows: WG I 23-26 September 2013, Stockholm, Sweden WG II 25-29 March 2014, Yokohama, Japan WG III 7-11 April 2014, Berlin, Germany The dates for these meetings were set in 2009, as can be seen via the timetable, dated Novermber 3rd of that year, here (PDF). So there's your 'crisis meeting'. Working Group One's session, scheduled four years ago, for acceptance of its report."

When they are parked, the cars are left spaced around the car park, but once the humans are all safely inside they move together and huddle for mutual security like penguins in Antarctica.

Whilst we may not be able to 'control' it, we can adjust our behaviour now to mitigate the future impact. The problem with the deniers and those following short-term selfish interests is that they want to simply carry on as we are and 'damn the torpedoes'.

I remember Don from the wargames club I used to attend in the 70's - and borrowed all of his books from Central library or the branch on Burgess Rd.

What happens when the people of Orkney & the Shetlands start asking for ownership of 'their' oil & gas ?

Alex Salmond is only interested in one thing; as with all other politicos it's himself.

I don't think many fully veiled women would be walking into bars, busy or not.

We have more points from the first 4 games than from the corresponding fixtures last time round, so that is improvement, yes ?

[h=1]Are bedwetters and happy clappers set in stone?[/h] There are some of the former who I sometimes think should be set in concrete.

Whilst you are at it, tell it to the hundreds of thousands of public sector staff who lost their jobs in the last 4 years, as well.

All depends on your definition of 'decently priced. Sticking to the £50-ish mark Altura or DHB are good vfm, or possibly these might suit, though I have no direct experience of them; http://www.cycle-clothing.co.uk/Products/252/speg-axius-propanel-therml-bib-tights-with-coolmax-4d-pad.aspx

Teachers didn't choose Gove !

http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/sp/road-track-bike/giordana-giordana-bib-shorts-giordana-fusion-bib-shorts/giorzbbs472 £49.73 You can also wear padless tights over bibshorts, which gives you the option of stripping off a layer if the weather improves during a ride.

Funny thing the English language, this is how I read that quoted post from POL : "Originally Posted by Frattoniser Apparently there was some sort of kick about on a park involving one of our national sides that wears three lions on their shirts, turns out we drew 0-0 which means the fat scummer didn't score. Funny really, but I have absolutely no or little interest in the WC right now, it actually bores me!" 1) He is bored with the World Cup "Anyone else feeling the same about our overpaid, overpampered, overthetop, underachieving and underwhelming stars?" 2) He feels the same about PFC.

Depends on your budget - I generally wear Giordana bibshorts, especially when I can buy them discounted down to the £50 mark. Padded shorts at the 'bargain basement' level should be avoided. I personally avoid 'gel' pads, as imo they go out of shape too easily. Also, be careful with the sizing, most are 'Italian cut' so you need to consider going larger than you might with other clothing.

Popular lass !

So, who writes all those biographies ?

Everybody was happy to take the ride until the Global bubble burst.

What about anonymity for suspects before they have been formally charged ? When a serious crime happens you get this media frenzy and there seems to be a general assumption that if somebody has been questioned in relation to a case then they're fair game - how many times do we see a person named and their personal life shredded in the public arena, only for it all to become an anonymous "A man/woman has been charged" once it all becomes formal - especially if the person charged isn't the person who has been openly abused, as with the Joanna Yeates murder.

Dream on brother.

Is this ambition exclusively limited to 'righties' ? I just don't have faith in GO's competence, in the same way some on here slate Gordon Brown's record; I think that any positive news on the economy is despite him rather than 'because of' him, and there has been a huge amount of positive spin placed on some very mixed messages in the last few days.

I hope that is 'tongue in cheek' - it's only 4 home games since we beat Chelsea, ( 3 draws & 1 defeat ), which was the game immediately before we scored 2 at Reading.
