Anyone else see Spartacus on Crimewatch last night? Looks like Glaber is getting desperate!
Most likely, unless your old man has taught you, you have no clue how beer is prepared. This is how real beer is made.
Probably the best of what’s to come, or already been released, this year:
Action
Comedy
Sci-Fi
Crime
Fantasy
Horror
Abraham Lincoln: Vampie Hunter
Thriller
Anyone else notice this on X-Factor tonight? The way the competition announcer read the option was hilarious! “Only girl in the…Kitchen!..”
Do they even put effort in to these Internet phishing scams any more? Today I received this one:

Surely Kindo knows he has to try harder than this… reminds of George Agdgdgwngo from Fonejacker!
This site was brought to my attention via Talksport. Keys and Gray had a journalist called Tim Long on as a guest. Before anyone begins to claim the author of the article is an Arsenal fan, Tim Long actually supports Manchester United. His aim with this research is to promote the use of technology in football.
There are only two reasons I can see for technology not to be accommodated in to the modern game:
The first is a point of concern, however it is worth noting that many key incidents occur in or around a break in play. To review an incident will only take 30-60s with the use of replays. There are more natural breaks in play than we think. Also, with any sport with technology used to review incidents, if the outcome is undetermined after review, the initial decision stands.
The second point is less valid in my opinion. No offence to the lower leagues, but the games are really not as important. Fans who pay premium prices to see their premier league clubs play matches do not want to feel “cheated” out of their money. In the 2010-2011 season Birmingham and Blackpool could well have stayed up if key decisions had been called correct. For a premier league team these resulting factors are very much more significant than for lower league teams. Birmingham and Blackpool have suffered financially, plus on top, players have asked to leave in order to join other clubs to play premier league football.
The following table is based on the possible total effect of points on teams in the 2010-2011 season based on the key incidents being called wrongly:
It is worth noting that this table is the possible outcome, as of course, had penalties been awarded, it is still possible they would have been saved or missed. It is not possible to determine the outcome of a game had a decision been changed, however had they been significant, the table would stand.
Ultimate 11
If I could have an ideal team to field every week in the premier league, regardless of injuries, I would choose the following team:
The central midfield position is where, I believe, the most controversial choices are.
My choice could however change in the next 24 hours or so as the transfer deadline is at 11pm!
Diamond Planet
Newly found, scientists believe it to be composed of carbon crystalline, it is effectively a large diamond.
The problem with this planet is it is too far away, more precisely 4,000 light years away!
It would not be realistic for us to attempt a mission to visit this planet:
Current spacecraft such as the Voyager II can achieve a maximum speed of approximately 16km/s. If Voyager II was to attempt the journey from earth to the diamond planet, in one year it would cover a distance of approximately 500,000,000,000 metres.
A light year is precisely 9,460,730,472,580,800 metres. Voyager II would take just under 19000 years to cover a light year! Unfortunately the Voyager II is powered by a quantity of Plutonium 238 that will run out in 8,000 years.
The entire 4,000 light year journey would take 76 million years…
Our species has been in it’s current existing form for 200,000 years. To travel to the diamond planet would require a timeline 380 times our current existence!
