What does everyone think about Slash playing for ACDC? I'm a bit torn. Guns'n roses one of my favourite bands ever. Likewise ACDC. Not sure this is a match made in heaven.

Kate Miller Heidke does the greatest opera version of Psycho Killer by the Talking Heads you could ever see.

Given Brayshaw wasn't given NAB challenge games it's hard to draw a line. Let's hope they are both fighting for the same spot by round 5 because Trengove and Petracca are banging the door down.

Brayshaw was playing pretty good footy up until he got injured. The 2nd quarter against Collingwood on Queens Birthday was something to behold. if Oliver has a better debut year it is exciting times for Demon fans.

I hate Parish because he plays for Essendon. I also hated Ben Kennedy up until last years trade period because he played for Collingwood.

Hopefully nab 3. He could be just building...

Neither did The Ox. 2 of the best players in the last 40 years. Must be a sign...

Thanks nurse's assistant john dee. I'm dumber for having read that. Let's address the facts instead of dancing around them like you do.

I know someone who was at that concert booing them off the stage.

The Queen song (Radio Goo Goo) isn't a masterpiece but Freddie's captivation of a packed out Wembley Stadium is as good as I have seen. I love it more for the theatre than the song itself.

I'm going for live music The greatest duet since Sonny and Cher https://youtu.be/qiTVzUz3i40 The greatest live performance https://youtu.be/0omja1ivpx0

Ocean acidification is not un-precedented. The ice sheets are melting in only one hemisphere (why do you ignore the other?); which is completely contradictory to global warming theory. That's half the planet. I love how you say "But why would things be melting in a climate that isn't warming? I am flummoxed!" 1) The climate changes and will always change are you surprised when the climate goes upwards in temperature? 2) See point 1

We used pick 34 on Max Gawn who had done his ACL the previous season. He was untried at AFL level and a massive unit which could only put extra pressure on his knees. Sometimes you need to take educated risks.

Why don't you address the facts instead of resorting to sarcasm? Satellite data shows no warming for 18 years but your sarcasm and the manipulated data are showing plenty of heat.

I don't need to beat others into submission because the facts are on my side. Perhaps you should look at the Jack Watts, Cale Morton or Jimmy Toumpas threads for obsessive writers.

There is no desperate need to be "right". You will notice Bing181 correctly called me out for saying the satellite data measures temperature. Which it doesn't. I have highlighted the fact I was incorrect. The obsessed comment also intrigues me. Can anybody contribute to a (this) thread, that has a contrary opinion to yourself, without being labelled obsessive?

What do you think about Essendon? Whilst they won't produce the records of what they have injected their players I will believe it's a massive conspiracy. No different for any scientific body who won't transparently release the data behind their findings. Do you believe 2015 is the hottest year on record based on NOAA's investigation?

Not at all. I believe the climate has changed previously and will always change going forward. I just don't have the delusional view that man controls the climate. What temperature forecast reduction are they hoping Kyoto 2 will deliver again? i'll add it to the list of all the other dud predictions.

Kudos to you. By far the most intelligent post from a believer in climate change I have seen on demonland, The sattelites measure radiance not temperature. But they are directly related. And the point still stands. No increase in radiance wavelength bands in the atmosphere means there can be no global warming. Do you think it appropriate that NOAA wont release their raw data, then manipulated data showing the hottest year ever and method for achieving it?

Do you also agree NOAA should be transparent with their (US tax payer funded) data?

Hardtack - do you think it is an inditement on Essendon that they won't provide their records or will you give them the benefit of the doubt?

Choke - NOAA are not advertising on their website or anywhere else that they refuse to disclose their methodology or data in a transparent way, even to congress, despite being publicly funded. I would love to see their response as well.

I don't need a response. The silence is deafening.

So 2015 is the hottest year on record? Announced just before the Paris convention... NOAA came up with this scare. The satellite data that accurately measures the atmospheric global temperature shows no statistical warning for 18 years (and 9 months). Of course if there is no atmospheric warming there can be no global warming. (PM me if you don't understand the basic physics) But NOAA has come up with a "new" formula that ignores the accurate and unaltered atmosphere figures, relies on temperature stations on the ground, that are subject to the moving of weather stations, increased and decreased concrete surroundings, sample ocean scooping's, from ocean liners and homogenization of data. And of course nobody is privy to how the data is manipulated. Just so we are clear: -Satellite data uses infrared technology across the atmosphere and is entirely accurate - NOAA's "new" global temperature findings use man made weather stations and a raft of other inaccurate temperature gages. Then they "adjust" them and then they come up with the hottest year on record, just in time for the Paris convention. Now NOAA is in a world of hurt because congress has requested the raw data, adjusted data and method of manipulation of data that they used to claim the hottest year on record. But of course NOAA wont release it, at least this side of the Paris convention. Are there any on here that argue Essendon should be hit with the full force of the law for not providing their body of evidence on allegedly drugging 40 players but think it is fine that that NOAA wont supply their data that effects the world policy and could potentially leave millions in poverty?

It's funny I get sh1tty when posters criticize McKenzie for his disposal or Watts for his effort and the list could go on. I see our players in a glass full kind of way. We get a player who is a combination of Jonathan Brown and Wayne Carey and I am worried his kick isn't penetrating enough. It's tough being a Melbourne supporter.
