Wouldn't a urinal that only collapsed in earthquakes do the same job without putting maintenance workers at risk?
Why would you want a urinal that only collapsed in earthquakes?
Think about it for a bit.

I am. If I was using the urinal I think I would prefer it didn't collapse at all.

Problem is you have in many instances seasonal variation in pricing especially for fresh products.
Big Mac is the same price all year round.

Or would in any normal country.

That's a very odd statement.

Are the UK Challenger 2's actually worse than useless to Ukraine? Not talking about their merits as a tank, but the resources that would be needed to put in place logistics, training, maintenance etc. that could be better deployed on a vehicle like Leopard that could make up larger units for deploy...

Bimbs, do you spend A LOT of time on here and you get a lot of abuse daily yet you still post loads. Fairplay. Some days yes.

They must be doing something right, since the Brexit vote there has been consistently greater FDI inward investment than outward investment and it seems to be accelerating.

The Swiss are changing their laws to allow weapon and ammo transfers to Ukraine. :shock: They were just waiting for Germany From what I am reading it was only a vote by a parliamentary commission to propose a change to the law and it was a fairly narrow approval. Will have to see what the final pro...

The Germans really are being a bunch of c u nts about this: Berlin says it hasn't received any request: Germany's government has not received a request from Poland or any other country for permission to transfer the tanks to Ukraine, said spokesman Steffen Hebestreit. “And if they ask, then there i...

Nope. If Marler is not bound them as soon as the ball passed the last bound players feet the ball is out regardless of what the 9 does.

Not entirely convinced he was on side but ref have it.
Hopefully it will stop lazy binding.

I got given out to one of my kids for always letting them win. Go figure. I used to beat my kids by small margins when they were small . They knew they had no realsitic chance against me, so letting them win just set them moaning. But I did not want to humiliate them. Then one day one of the shites...

The same as Soup rugby.

Any player who goes out with the intention of deliberately injuring another player deserves nothing but contempt.

Not entirely. Germany's deflected.... again, but they have said they'll not block other countries sending them so Poland is free to provide them. Not sure how much of this was already factual, regardless Ukraine will be getting something for sure and that's what matters. Not from what I am reading....

I think some of you guys are making too much out of this. Like many have said, his body is pretty much done (Canes too). He's not going to last another WC cycle regardless of his age.

Crosby has always had quite a presence in the scene. Could seemingly be very prickly. Not a bad knock for what he put his body through. Always found CSN too dribbly and twee. Needed Neil to really give them punch and direction. I agree to a large extent, fine band without Young but a little too gen...

So France should look like this on match day, if no injuries: 1. Baille 2. Marchand 3. Atonio 4. Flament 5. Willemse 6. Jelonch or Cros 7. Ollivon 8. Aldritt 9. Dupont 10. Ntamack 11. Lebel 12.

Care to name some that you think are important?

You are the one stating they got it right so I assume you have an idea why you think they got it right.

Good news for sure. No doubt he is a special talent, just needs some extended playing time to refine his game. Which is tough at the Highlanders behind Aaron Smith... a shame he couldn't play NPC.

Perhaps but Ireland have the best pack in the world and that takes you a long a way. You can just grind out games if the backs aren't firing. Imagine if Stander hadn't retired?
