Happy Face

Just admit you're wrong man agent. Isn't the WHOLE point of that quote "Freedom without boundaries is just a word" that such a thing is entirely impractical. You started by arguing against that, and now you're completely agreeing that we can only exist with a certain level of freedom, the debate is only to what degree we should be free to do as we all please. Freedom with boundaries is not just a word, and it's not oppression, it's the principal that underpins EVERY society on the planet.

In diplomatic circles it's quite the rebuke apparently. Second only to turning up to dinner an hour late. It's pathetuic really. They pull similar shit to avoid embarrassment all the time though. "You can't actually meet with the president Mr Chinese ambassador, but should you happen to be leaving the Jefferson conference room when your meeting with our flunky is over, then the president might accidentally bump into you in the hallway and give you a minute on the way to his meeting"

I thought the romans supplied the crosses. Jesus saves...he can be cover for Harper.

The numbers have dropped massively over the past year though. Seems people are getting far more informed on the middle east after waging war for almost a decade in the area. I include myself in that by the way. 5 years ago I wouldn't have had a clue as to what was going on over there....but I 'd have said Israel were looking out for us, when all they do is fan the flames. I remember when you used to have a pop at me for highlighting this topic ad naseum. Cos you're anti-semitic with it

We all rip the piss out of the "world series" of baseball never leaving the US. Restricting the world cup to 6 countries would be almost as bad.

So they're providing free broadband to the club and we're putting their name on a board. Hardly worth the "tweet".

As widely predicted. I have to say it's been handled very well by the club, by which I mean ignored. There's hardly been any of the media storm I feared when it first happened.

36 Excellent French cop thriller. If you enjoyed stuff like Infernal Affairs, Beast Cops, Heat and that you'll love it The Yes Men Fix the World I never saw the first one, but this was on telly so i watched it. Since their biggest and best prank got so much media attention at the time, they couldn't really build to it. We get the story of that one early on and the rest of the stunts they pull seem ridiculous and insignificant by comparison. Still a canny entertaining doc.

Americans oppose the health care plan by a margin of 59-39%, but a sizable portion of those opposed -- 13% -- oppose it because "it is not liberal enough" Thus, a majority of Americans either support the plan or believe it should be more liberal (52%), while only a minority (43%) oppose the plan on the ground that it is too liberal.

hit a nerve did I? haha not in the slightest. You may think you know all about the UK,which you don't, but I can state quite categorically your knowledge of NUFC is zilch in comparison to me.......... full agreement with you there LM, however that is not the topic and nor has it ever been my opinion that I know more about NUFC than you or anyone else on this board.......your rampant xenophobia is exceeded only by your level of douche-baggery hit a nerve did I not at all, but your attempt to draw attention away from your own prejudices and your knee jerk reactions to a percieved threat from immigrants, by pointing out that you know more about NUFC than I do makes you look like a even more of a complete twat indeed. As does your insistence that you know more about the UK than someone who lives in it So far as I am concerned, with an attitude like yours, the UK is better off without you and you can take all the scumbag terrorists and intolerants you defend with you if you have so much time for them. no where do i imply i know more about the UK. I don't need to be from the UK to spot racism intolerance and ingnorance.....good try though. intolerants...that would be you wouldn't it? all i have defended is the right of people to protest and say what they believe, i haven't said anywhere that I agree with what they are saying or protesting for........there is a distinct difference the two things i have defended are exactly what make countries like Britain and Canada and the US great, because we can't be persecuted for speaking our minds......so i say if you don't like those freedoms and laws then perhaps it is you who should go to a country where they don't exist.....i hear North Korea is nice this time of year this is going back to the thread about those shitbags in Wootton Basset, Luton etc. You can't go around life with no discipline, this is totally different to having free speech. You have to accept certain responsibilities and you should respect the flag of the country you live in or fuck off to somewhere where you do. You still know nothing about me, you would have to tell me about North Korea if it appeals to you i know enough you still know nothing about freedom of speech.....quite obviously from your above post. if freedom of speech only protects the ideas which are popular or that you agree with it is known as propaganda. you know absolutely nothing about me, and you aren't going to either. Believe me, I know all about free speech and understand like most things, it has boundaries, which is what you and the other blinkered idiots don't understand. absolutely..... here they are...... Freedom of speech is the freedom to speak without censorship and/or limitation. The synonymous term freedom of expression is sometimes used to indicate not only freedom of verbal speech but any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used. In practice, the right to freedom of speech is not absolute in any country and the right is commonly subject to limitations, such as on "hate speech". Hate speech is speech perceived to disparage a person or group of people based on their social or ethnic group,[1] such as race, gender, age, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, language ability, ideology, social class, occupation, appearance (height, weight, skin color, etc.), mental capacity, and any other distinction that might be considered by some as a liability. The term covers written as well as oral communication and some forms of behaviors in a public setting. It is also sometimes called antilocution and is the first point on Allport's scale which measures prejudice in a society. so you don't believe in absolute free speech then ? [but you said you did, or just when it suits you] Back to where we started. If you can't respect the flag of the country you live in, fuck off to where you do. If you want to heckle those who represent that flag and protect its boundaries and interests, fuck off and fight them with a uniform and represent what you believe in. This has nothing to do with free speech, nothing. It is about observing discipline in life and respecting other values and not imposing your own where they are not wanted. You can think about the economic problem of rising immigration and a rising population in your own time, it has been asked 4 or 5 times now by myself and others. are you really that dumb? you said there were boundries for freedom of speech, i agreed and listed them as set out by the government......please note none of the boundries as set out by you have made the list. so no i don't believe in freedom of speech as laid out by you. http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_gr...nada/index.html

That was my cousin. He's on the back of the journal and in court next Wednesday

If Carroll thinks he should be on more than (or as much as) Taylor he should be breaking Ashley's jaw.

Having initially remained on Tyneside following the events of Sunday, we understand that Andy Carroll has now linked up with the rest of the Newcastle squad and is available to play at Doncaster Rovers tonight.

Long story, short version: I rent my house to NUFC via a letting agent who house the younger non-mansion owning players, in discussions with said agents they mentioned there's one "horrible" player they won't touch with a bargepole, was not named directly, but at the time I had little doubt it was Carroll. There's been many a story about players rented properties. Emre left one penthouserequiring a 5 grand clean up while Martins housed a number of illegal immigrants in his *allegedly I worked with a lad who lived next door to Martins, used to say hello in the lift, and he mentioned people would squat and shit around the bins. It was the charvers who'd come from the outskirts for the free quayside (Evolution?) festival. Tramps.

No-one's getting sold. The precedent has been set over and over in the past whether it was Shearer, Barton, Dyer, Bowyer, Woodgate or Carroll. Nowt will be done.

Best post on this was on SMB like.... "Taylor went down clutching his chest" Hughton wants to get Taylor telt, play it down, just fisticuffs that got out of hand. Bestest buds. Everyone's moved on. Sorted.

Having just watched The Conformist I can say that's Bertolluciesque.

Taylor stole his iphone.
