  1. What are you on about? The commonly held view that Newcastle fans win one game and think they're going to win the league and lose one game and turn on the players. We might very well be in a patch where we dont amass many points for a while now due to suspensions and tough games. At least we're not going into that patch rock bottom of the league though. 'Slide'. This is the Prem. It's our first season after promotion and we have a very much better than anticipated first team and no squad to speak of. That means it's going to be ups and downs all over the shop. What did anyone realistically expect; winning every game we played? I mean into the bottom 3. Leave your sterotypes at the door mate. My point is, we could already be there in other circumstances. Glass half full and all that. Just going to have to steel yourself a bit I'm afraid. You sound like a Bond.

  3. Yeah, we could buy four Xiscos. Probably end up with four discos.
  4. I'll take 20m ish....If he were for sale, which he isn't, but if he was I'd take around 20m...If he was for sale that is....Which he isn't.
  5. for once, skidders has a point. You haven't called anybody a boring cunt lately have you ? LM in "i don't understand , so i will make disparaging remarks" shocker!! while I can understand that you may genuinely not be interested in the topic, the fact that anti-matter (or rather the storage and stockpiling of anti-matter) has only been theoretical until now, makes this one of the most significant scientific milestones of the last 100 years Aye ok. So apart from 'understanding', what actual everyday use is this going to achieve? Good question really from any layman. I read both links and kept thinking........And. I even started to reply twice and thought, fuck it. But as its got going, what is the point and is this research and experiments being carried out with a view to something at the end of it. Not dissing your interest in this btw. fair enough, but how are we to have practical plans for something we've only just now proven exists? i think this is similar: to science debunking the myth that the earth is the center of the universe. or newton's laws. or the theory of relativity. It's interesting because its pushing the envelope of how we perceive the universe, and eventually will lead to more mundane everyday applications of this greater (hopefully) understanding. Thats the bit Im missing tbf. I gather from the article that anti matter used to exist before the big bang and that after the big bang it dissappeared, I just wasnt sure why they were trying to re-create it and what was driving the experiment? IE Was this leading to some great development or breakthrough. Straight forward enough questions I would have thought for a topic of this nature on a football forum. The centre of the universe example makes sense btw. agreed it's really just the tip of the iceburg with this field of study, when looking at the young universe they have all these existing theories of what happened and how it happened, and then when they look at what we have now all the theories fall apart. if they can determine a unifying theory for physics who knows what applications it would have for the everyday experience. personally i'm hoping for flying cars.... Unifying theory is hard like.
  6. Does about 15 royal engagements a year. Get rid.
  7. My two mercury ones have never fallen out and ocassionally inspired some cracking prose....The white one I had fell out twice.
  8. So, it's been the fillings all along!! There is a tiny danger, but really tiny tbs. IMO the procedure to have them replaced is more dangerous than keeping them as tiny particles will end up in your tummy during the procedure and there it is BOWEL CANCER right there. Leave them alone and don't dring acidic drinks too much as they give off a vapour when the react with for instance cocacola etc...
  9. Probs why he's been wearing suits recently.
  10. With the Germans for Christmas so it will be duck one day and some kind of Pork the next. Food tends to be plentiful and wholesome rather than really tasty or whatever.
  11. Ok seeing the board is full of industry experts, I'd love to see a list of films/movies, even tv shows, where the editor has categorically, the final decision for the releases/broadcast production? btw naming anything by the Coen brothers does not count, they only edit the offline. Dir or studio nearly always has final cut approval (court cases have been fought over it). As wth Happy's point earlier, some Dir let the editor get on with it and come in from time ot time to see the rough edit.
  12. She wouldn't survive 5 min in here.
  13. (7) Whether the Madeleine McCann case has undermined the work carried out by police sniffer dogs, especially cadaver dogs and bloodhounds. One of the reasons the McCanns were taken in for questioning was because of the evidence provided by two dogs used by Martin Grime, recognised as one of the world’s top dog handlers. The cadaver dog Eddie was said by Mr Grime, on a video that has since been watched by millions, to have alerted to the scent of a corpse at 10 locations, four in the McCanns’ apartment, two in a car subsequently hired by the McCanns, and four times on clothes or other items belonging to the McCanns and one of their children. The McCanns have rebutted this evidence by claiming that the evidence of these dogs is (I quote) ‘notoriously unreliable’, yet despite that claim, Mr Grime’s dogs have been used successfully dozens of times to alert to the scent of places where corpses have lain for a period. It might also be noted here that the McCanns, themselves and through their spokesman Clarence Mitchell, in an attempt to discredit the use of cadaver sniffer dogs, publicly referred to the case of Eugene Zapata as one where the evidence of cadaver dogs had, they said, been shown to be unreliable. However, less than six months after the McCanns made these comments, Zapata pleaded guilty to murdering of his wife."
  14. The Times on 11 September 2007 reported: “Despite the insistence of Kate and Gerry McCann that they had no involvement in their daughter's disappearance, Jose Cunha de Magalhaes e Meneses, an Algarve-based prosecutor, concluded that the evidence against them was strong enough to apply for a prosecution”. Jose Cunha de Magalhaes e Meneses, a Regional Director of Prosecutions, gave evidence in court much more recently on the subject. He was a witness in the interlocutory hearing on 11 January 2010 of Goncalo Amaral’s appeal against an injunction temporarily banning his book ‘The Truth About A Lie’. Under headlines such as that on SKY NEWS on 12 January: “Madeleine McCann ‘Died In Holiday Apartment’, Mr Cunha de Magalhaes e Meneses repeated in the High Court in Lisbon his view that there was much evidence that Madeleine died in the McCanns’ apartment. In addition, we need to bear in mind that despite her apparent desperation at Madeleine being missing, Dr Kate McCann refused to answer all 48 questions asked of her by the Portuguese Police at an interview under caution on 7 September 2007. Not only that, but the McCanns and all their ‘Tapas 9’ friends who were with them in Portugal refused to take part in a reconstruction of the events of the evening Madeleine disappeared, an event which would surely have shed much light on what really happened that evening.

    Robocop is on the case.
  16. Book by Portugese cop was surpressed. Pending legal action.
  17. I said this at the game but it does seem like since we've been away and come back that cheating, gamesmanship, timewasting has got much worse. It may well have done but its certainly magnified by the fact the championship has such a lower proportion of complete cocks and cheating pricks that we got used to people sometimes staying on their feet, getting up after a genuine clattering as if nothing happened and people getting on with the game. Not saying there wasn't any down there but by god there was alot less than the prem which is frankly a disgrace. The histrionics in the PL is far worse now than I ever remember it. So rare a player just gets up and gets on with it after a 50-50.
  18. thats because she did it Parky She looked decidedly dodgy in some of those interviews. I know that's probably not a fair comment etc...
  19. Still have reservations about these two. Regardless of the tragedy and everything, it still doesn't sit right with me.
