  1. No. Cause it doesn't mean anything. It's another American language plague. If an actor says ruf instead of roof I turn the telly off.
  2. That stupid dickhead Obama started it and it's a complete bastardization of the word. Optics or Optique refers primarily to field glasses or rifle sights. If you wan to say public perception then say it...And everyone can understand what it means. Optics is irregular usage.
  3. Do they do that that through field glasses made by Zeiss or sniper rifle sights?
  4. It's not a word. It's a meaningless Americanisation. Stop using it or die.
  5. ''German construction companies have been banned from using plastic-filled cladding, such as Reynobond PE, on towers more than 22 metres high since the 1980s when regulations were brought in to improve fire safety at residential blocks. '' Guardian
  6. Publicly subsidized drinking den.
  7. Yup it should be about attracting the best. What we attract now are losers, slackers and kiddie fiddlers.
  8. Govt. damage limitation inquiry in place.
  9. Isn't his new investors/buyers thing straight out the Ashley playbook to delay transfers?
  10. The death toll is going to be huge and all these people aren't going to be 'missing'.
  11. It should basically be illegal to use 'B' grade material on housing.
  12. All the onlookers said the outside of the building went up in 15 min....Fireman being interviewed said they were shocked too.
  13. Germany and Croatia are the only two countries in Europe where you have to use mineral/steel wool insulation A1 inside these cores once a building is over 8 floors. It's expensive (much more than the 24 quid fire resistant version of the Reynobond). The products you have to use in Germany are virtually impossible to set on fire. Mrs P is an architect she explained it all to me (her office were shocked and were discussing the tragedy other day). The standards in the UK are low...
  14. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/eu-poland-hungary-czech-republic-refugee-crisis-handle-legal-proceeding-lawsuit-european-commission-a7789161.html
  15. Comey the clown. History of bungled cases and outrageous incompetence. ''Quattrone, a banker who Comey pursued relentlessly on banking related charges without fruition. But while he couldn’t find any wrong-doing on criminal conduct, he went after him for supposed “obstruction of justice” because of a single ambiguous email. Sound familiar? Before he was indicted, Comey made false statements about Quattrone and his intent. The first trial ended in a hung jury but the second one got a conviction. That conviction was overturned in 2006. Quattrone was so scarred by the harassment, he began funding projects designed to help innocent people who are victims of prosecutorial overreach or other problems. He said his motivation for supporting such projects was that at the very moment he was found guilty in the second trial, he realized there must be innocent people in prisons who lacked the financial resources to fight for justice. He also started the Quattrone Center for the Fair Administration of Justice at the University of Pennsylvania Law School.'' http://thefederalist.com/2017/06/12/james-comey-long-history-questionable-obstruction-cases/
