  1. Especially Loki at Port Adelaide.
  2. It matters not what I regard as long term or short term... the fact is that the very organisation (IPCC) you are claiming supports your hiatus stance, are saying that despite the unforeseen hiatus, global temperatures ARE increasing and ARE reaching a critical point. What do you consider "little warming since the ice age"? Regardless of what you think, the facts would seem to be saying that the warming is enough to cause deep concern. What is it that makes you want to argue this point continually? Do you have a vested interest in fossil fuels? Are you more concerned about your hip pocket than future generations? I would seriously be interested to know why you invest so much time in arguing these points with everyone and anyone on the forums who expresses a concern over global warming.
  3. Proof? The only move that I can see he has made is to attempt to silence those working at the detention camps by threatening them with incarceration. As for stopping the boats, aren't the boats still attempting to come and isn't he simply turning them around and exposing them to the same dangers regardless?
  4. Read the article; if you have read it, you would not really need to ask me that question.
  5. The point is that you show faux concern about the lives lost at sea, yet show little or no concern for the children exposed to all sorts of danger in the camps that your pal Abbott gleefully sends them to.
  6. Are sudden drops in the stock market always predictable... short answer, no... yet the trend over an extended period of time is up. Likewise with global warming, it is not always easy to predict a sudden hiatus, but over the long term the temperature is steadily increasing... an undeniable fact.
  7. The saddest thing is that I can believe it.
  8. Guess you're ecstatic now that Howe's done his ankle, hero?
  9. Keyboard warrior phhhtttt!
  10. You are an idiot... seriously!
  11. The Saints game is the only one that has me a bit concerned... if they win their next couple (GWS and Tigers) their confidence and momentum will be a real worry for us.
  12. Of course not... but I am highlighting the fact that a judge must be completely impartial. It would seem that perhaps you don't consider this to be a serious case?
  13. A hiatus is one thing (kind of like the ups and downs in the stock market in the short term)... what matters is the long term trend; or doesn't that concern you as you won't be around to suffer the effects? And as you love to cite the IPCC, from November last year: http://www.smh.com.au/environment/climate-change/ipcc-report-little-time-left-to-act-on-climate-change-20141103-11g2er.html
  14. Wrecker... well let's face it, Ben Her, is all for children in custody and for exposing them to the possibility of assault in the gulags in Nauru. If Tony says it ok, then BH is all for it.
  15. So, would a judge be allowed to preside over an embezzlement, murder, or any other case in which the defendant was a friend or relative of his/hers? After all, if the judge is such a professional, then the judge would be beyond reproach and would not be swayed by any form of relationship.
  16. If we can towel up Essendon next week, I get the feeling that that will be the result that sees Herd out of the building. God I hope we do it!
  17. Well, he should be done for being on the ground when he wasn't selected.
  18. And Toumpas is the first tonight to miss a target?
  19. That was a deliberate kick with his wrong foot!
  20. Ridiculous comment... there was no way that was a deliberate act. If anything the Collingwopd player ran straight into his foot. A footballing accident and nothing more.
  21. I think they probably did consult with the clubs.
  22. My point exactly... not to mention he is probably sensing that the WADA outcome could signal the end of his career.
