THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

'Criminal' penguin caught on film

A "criminal" stone-stealing Adelie penguin has been captured on camera by a BBC film crew.

The team, filming for the documentary Frozen Planet, spent four months with the penguin colony on Ross Island, Antarctica.

The footage they captured shows a male penguin stealing stones from its neighbour's nest.

Gives truth to the the lie about world crime figures reducing.

Ross Island was the headquarters of the Indian Penal Settlement for nearly 80 years.
In November 1857, the Government decided to establish a penal settlement in Andaman and send "hard-core elements" among those who took on the British. There were two reasons: One, to keep them away from other prisoners and the other, to send out a message that a similar treatment would be meted out to anyone who challenged the British authority.

Perhaps we should consider re-establishing it as a penal colony. Mind you it would have to have good TV reception, not to mention fast broadband, otherwise there would be cause for complaint under the Human Rights Act.
Just think how much it would cost the tax payer, shipping all those wives/girlfriends out for conjugal visits. Probably should include boyfriends as well.
Has anyone thought yet, what will happen when the first same sex marriage pair are split up when one of the pair is put away.

Funny old world.

A DOCTOR has worked out what makes the perfect boobs after carefully analysing 100 of The Sun's Page 3 girls.

Plastic surgeon Patrick Mallucci identified four key features during a three-month study.

First, the part of the boob lying below the nipple was ten per cent fuller than that above it like those of Page 3 Hollie and model Kelly Brook.

Next, the nipples themselves were angled upwards at 20 degrees.

Finally the skin sloped flatly or inward above the nipple, and curved outwards below it.



Dr Mallucci explained: "The nipple meridian a horizontal line drawn at the level of the nipple lay at a point such that the proportion of the breast above it was 45 per cent and below 55 per cent.

"The more breasts deviate from these measures the less attractive they are regardless of size." His findings were published in the International Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery. Doctors can now use them to ensure perfect boob jobs.

Dr Mallucci, of London's University College Hospital and the Royal Free Hospital, said: "Page 3 made me question what it is that makes readers find these breasts appealing."

Remember all those Labour Government schemes that wasted tax payers money on sending criminals on Foreign holidays, the safari boy being just one example.

This government quite rightly said they would stop such antics, as they would not reward wrong doers.

Announced today.

More than 100,000 problem families face daily visits from government officials under plans being drawn up after the summer riots.
These families will be given (meaning paid for my us) help with basic tasks such as, getting their children out of bed and ready for school, along with cooking or cleaning.

So in the worse cases, we will have Mr and Mrs criminal who obviously don't won't work, will be supplied with a personal maid to get their dozen or so children out of bed, fed, watered and no doubt taken to school, whilst they are helped with the cooking and cleaning.

What a great idea! This will of course go a long way in making these people responsible and caring parents.

I find it unbelievable, that anyone with half a brain cell, feels that such schemes will have any positive effect whatsoever.
This of course at a time when those who genuinely need help with daily chores, such as the disabled or/and elderly are having their daily help and assistance cut, due to lack of money.

I also read today that if the number of MPs who want a debate on having referendum to leave the EU reaches a certain number, it is thought that David Cameron will 'ORDER' any Conservative MP to refrain from voting, even though any survey will show that well over 75% of the voting population want such a referendum.

Also, it was stated today that several MP's are lobbying others to vote against any moves to force them to pay more into their pensions and for any increase in the age of their retirement.
These same MPs no doubt were among those who voted for the motion that everyone else should pay more into their pensions, whilst the retirement age is extended.

If things carry on as they are, I can't see it being too long before we have riots far worse than those already seen, and as a law abiding person, I can for-see the time when it will be difficult to not break the law (I don't mean looting or the like) in acts such as forcefully taking over government buildings.

Once democracy dies, the legitimacy of law also dies, and there becomes a point where the people have had enough.

Mnamreh,

You might disagree with me, but no need to take that tone.

Oh, I see.

I must ask, whats wrong with the other one?

Sesame Street YouTube channel hit by porn hack

Sesame Street's YouTube channel has been taken offline after hackers uploaded several pornographic videos.


Can train technology re-invent the wheel?


Rail transport has not fundamentally changed in the 200 years since the invention of metal rails but a new wave of transport ideas - from ones already in development to "concept" contraptions - could change the way we commute forever.
