"EU Offers Public a Chance to Fix Copyright Law": http://torrentfreak.com/eu-offers-public-a-chance-to-fix-copyright-law-140113/

This seems like something we should all be getting involved with. The general public have a chance to change copyright law for the better and make it more compatible with the digital age.

Simple tick-box thingy here: http://copywrongs.eu/

 

Man, the EU can be so cool sometimes.

 

I note that Schumacher is still in an induced coma and has had a part of his skull removed to relieve pressure. Doctors are conducting tests to ascertain which part of his brain is still functioning...doesn't sound good that he's still not been brought round.

 

They'll bring Schumacher round when he's ready. Keeping someone in an induced coma is not a dicey affair, it's the safe thing to do.

Whenever Schumacher is mentioned, I keep remembering the skiing accident to the actress Natasha Richardson a few years back. She had almost exactly the same reaction and symptoms. She died because she waved away concerned friends saying that she was fine.

 

TSS is correct Fran .

Karl Wendlinger was put into an induced Coma for more than 3 weeks after he crashed heavily in Monaco back in the 90's .

 

RIP John Button .

He certainly enjoyed Life !!!

 

Saw my Doctor today , he said I have got Hermes :-(

 

it was a simple tick box thingy until I pressed next, then essay

 

Yeah, I didn't realise that at first, but you don't have to write in all of them, and if you do it can just be like one sentence.

 

Watched Archer yet, Joe?

 

Just did. I like the direction they're heading in. Keeping it fresh. I just can't decide whether that montage at the end was actually a preview for the season or it was just a daydream. I'm edging towards the latter.

 

Seems that the trailer for next week had shots from that montage, so it's just one big preview. Not too happy about that, it was pretty spoilery.

 

Yeah if that all indeed was from upcoming episodes then I feel like I've already seen a pretty large portion of them!

Think this guy needs anger management.

 

Shooting someone for texting in a cinema...should get off with community service or a medal.

 

It's a type of Herpes, but you are only a Carrier, right, joke ruined when they sold it to the Indian Navy and renamed it INS Viraat!

 

*cough*

 

Bastard ;-)

 

What he needs is a life sentence.

 

Sick ****ing bastards .
