Climate denier bloggers sniff out new conspiracy

Re: META-FAIL

Looking at a lot of commentators history's a lot of astroturfing going on, guess they've been sent over by the PR site DeSmogBlog.

'Plenty of people, even industry and MPs, say how wonderful it will be to have the climate of the South of France in Northumberland' - Who says this or are you just blowing hot air?

Re: What the paper in question really says...

Looking at the headline shame the author could not take the time that MondoMan did to actually read what he was suppose to be reporting on....then again with The Reg and the way it's going down hill fast I bet they don't realise people know what Cut-and-Paste is.

Anyone know the web site that will tell me where this author cut and paste from?

'Inexperienced' RBS tech operative's blunder led to banking meltdown

'CA Technologies - the makers of the CA-7 software at the heart of the snarl-up - are helping RBS to fix the disaster that has affected 16.9 million UK bank accounts.

"RBS is a valued CA Technologies customer, we are offering all assistance possible to help them resolve their technical issues," a spokeswoman told The Register.'

ie: RBS are paying the over time, oh wait that's wrong, the tax payers are paying the over time.

EU's 2020 CO2 target 'will add a year to economic slump'

Re: Stupid Sheeple

You have 3 friends, they earn a pound a day, they spend 2 pounds a day and owe each other a tenner. Now to make up the sort fall they keep borrow a pound off each other. (This is so simple it doesn't work but it gives you a very basic idea to go and learn more I would hope.)

Re: Stupid Sheeple

PS Itzman what does TCP in TCP/IP stand for?

Stupid Sheeple

With the world economy collapsing around our ears, the sheeple blissfully unaware and the rich just trying to work out how to keep there profits so inflation doesn't affect them so much, do not be suprised when your electric bill is on par with your mortgage repayments/rent.

But don't worry the bread and circuses will continue so your x-Factor/Star Trek reruns will keep you happy.

The real question is who will blink first the USA, EU or China. At this rate my same wage for the past 3 years would go on the morons in the EU.

Re: LOL!

Hey Matt leave them alone they work in IT so know they are far superior to the average cubical monkey, either that or they just want to feel superior because they’re saving the World and your just taking the p*ss out of it.

Re: If you're all so clever...

At $31 a share I can probably buy about 10 shares so whats my profit commonsense? what you think everyone on here is a hedge fund manager and not some geek in an office where all the A/C is in the server room next door earning just enough to pay for the wind mills to make hedge fund mangers fell better about themselves.

Desperate

Lets be honest Wall St are desperate at the moment for new multi billion dollar companies like FB as the only other new companies appearing in the good old US of A are of the green type ones and they are dying quicker than you can say what happened to all that tax payer money, just Google Solyndra.

Moron Stagnate and the rest of them know full well that China and India will be taking all their money real soon, well unless they can inflate the stock prices of say companies like FB.

Is there life after ads for St Zuck?

100Bn

FB worth a 100 Billion, I'd like to see a break down of how that figures worked out, Assets?, property rights? produced goods? or is it because they have access to 1 billion users for adverts only?

If lady Gaga wanted to could she sell advert space on yer wacky outfits for 100 billion and they would probably get more coverage than FB.

Although I do like the modern day economics of producing nothing and getting paid Billions, genius.

China considers energy cap

Re: Signed

Sorry link to doc http://unfccc.int/resource/docs/2011/awglca14/eng/crp38.pdf

Signed

So they signed one of the documents demanding justice for Gaia then? the one they put foward in Durban that stated:

*"Rights of Mother Earth”: The draft talks of “The recognition and defence of the rights of Mother Earth to ensure harmony between humanity and nature”. Also, “there will be no commodification [whatever that may be: it is not in the dictionary and does not deserve to be] of the functions of nature, therefore no carbon market will be developed with that purpose”.

*War and the maintenance of defence forces and equipment are to cease.

*The new CO2 emissions target, for Western countries only, will be a reduction of up to 50% in emissions over the next eight years and of “more than 100%” [these words actually appear in the text] by 2050. So, no motor cars, no coal-fired or gas-fired power stations, no aircraft, no trains. Back to the Stone Age

Black Ops II to take gamers to open worlds... and destroy them

Yer Right

Pull the other one it's just advertising hype, 'non-linear storyline' or mission selects as I still call them. Could be confused is it going to be like GTA sand box enviroment where you can cap a cabbie and nick his wheels?

The only reason I will buy this is because most of my clan that was on MW3 on-line went back to Black-Ops because the on-line game was far superiour.
