You fibbing little tinker Do you fill in your lottery slip after the numbers have been drawn ?

A win, a clean sheet, dominating first half, solid defence. Bring on the 2nd leg !

Try this : http://www.sciscoop.com/climate-change-evidence.html The article basically says that whilst water vapour is technically far more effective than CO2 at absorbing heat, the actual 'greenhouse effect' is felt at high altitudes, where the relative concentration of H2O compared to CO2 and methane drops dramatically; meaning that whilst there may be less CO2 in the total atmosphere, it is has a far greater effect on AGW because of where the bulk of it is found.

It does seem to be a stupid system for electing an administration; Elect a President, presumably on the basis of his manifesto, then follow that up by creating a legislature that is ideologically opposed to everything the President has promised to do, and will block it at every turn.

I saw it on the front page of yesterday's Express,http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/152422/The-new-climate-change-scandal, ( no mention there of it being lifted from the Murdoch rag ), hence my retort.

And the Tory answer is likely to be council tax cuts for band F&G properties and tax breaks for married couples ? Maybe the Tories are dangling these carrots hoping sufficient of the middle class swing voters will turni(u)p and vote for them. Isn't such electioneering a tad jaded, and possibly just a bit corny ? They may have bean out of power for over a decade, but underneath there is still the same blue monster, bent on dismantling public services. Follow the golden rule; all politicians are bent, and only in it for themselves. It makes things a lot simpler to understand. There is a Tory leaflet going round which says 'It's time to put the trust back in politics'. I sent it back in their reply paid envelope with 'That's why I will not be voting for you' written on it.

So public sector workers should just give up on the benefits they have paid contributions into over their working lives ? Should I just write off that percentage of my salary that has been deducted at source throughout my career ? And just who is looking after the elderly ? The public sector - social services and the NHS provide the majority of the care.

His qualifications and career are not exactly secret : http://www.climatescience.gov/Library/bios/pachauri.htm http://www.rkpachauri.org/bio.php And as for the glaciers, the science tends to support the fact that they ARE receding,- the point about the date possibly being misquoted is being used as a smokescreen; http://www.skepticalscience.com/himalayan-glaciers-growing.htm http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/03/070327113346.htm http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/jun/04/byers-himalaya-changing-landscapes ( Yes I know, it's that tree-hugger's comic the Grauniad ) And please note, the quote from Prof Dowdeswell is only debunking the accuracy of the 2035 date, ( which it seems is a typographical error transposing 2350 ) - his research work is investigating the recession of the glaciers and Antarctic ice, and he fully subscribes to the fact they are melting and liable to affect sea levels, it's the rate at which it is happening that is open to debate. ( There are plenty enough points questioning Peter Taylor's capability in this field already ).

In reply to Dune, ( his post is far too long to quote ); If that had come from any other source than the Express I would give it more credence, however I must admit it is 'interesting' and does merit further investigation; mind you, their '100 reasons' have already been broadly debunked, including comments earlier on this thread, so don't place too much reliance on that as supporting data

I thought the ban is actually enacted on player registrations, so even this cannot be done.

Don't think I've ever found one on my LINUX laptops either

I think the only 'short cut' that F1 needs should be applied to Bernie's neck.

FM 2010 hints, tips, cheats & gems of players / tactics
badgerx16 replied to SO16_Saint's topic in Computer Games
Just started on this version of FM ( using the latest patch from the start ) - first thing I did was send Papa back, ( having looked his stats and extortionate disproportionate salary), and sell Wotton, thereby freeing up the wages bill enough to coax in 6 new players, 4 buys and 2 more loans. Oh, and I also released Pulis on day 1 -
Export - silted up harbour Whinger - redhead with a gold medal spreadsheet - tidy your bed (or) spreadsheet - distribute manure

Don't they have a 'world class' academy then ? They should have to play the youngsters /reserves to make up the shortfall.

At least wait for him to play before passing judgement. Presumably Pards has had him scouted for a while, and hasn't based his assessment solely on his performance against us. The raw material, ( height, weight, age, pace ), is there, and you can bet that we will probably be without both Jaidi & Perry next season, ( in the CCC ), when they will be older and slower, and DS will have got games 'under his belt', and understand how the squad are set up for Pards' style of footy.
