John Henry and Roberto Martinez
I had in recent weeks, a number of people asking for some details and answers about why Polish Ultras really hate UEFA Euro 2012. I will give you some answers and information below. I will try to be concise but it is quite a complex issues and you can read all about how repressions from police and…
Lawrence,
a Lawrence of Arabia, but pretty much an Englishman favoured
pinching a burning match between his fingers to put it out. When
asked by his colleague William Potter to reveal his trick, how is it
so effectively he extinguished the flame without hurting himself,
whatsoever. Lawrence just smiled and said the trick Potter is not
minding it hurts. The fire that danced at the end of that match was a
gift from the Titan Prometheus. A gift that he stole from the gods
and when Prometheus was caught and brought to justice for his theft,
the gods; well you might say they overacted a little. The poor man was
tied to a rock as an eagle ripped through his belly and eat his liver
over and over, day after day and although the night. All because he
gave us fire. Our first true piece of technology. Fire. 100,000 BC
stone tools. 4,000 BC the wheel. 9.th century A.D, gun powder. Bit of a
game changer that one! 19.th century, eureka the light
bulb! 20.th century, the auto-mobile, television, nuclear
weapons, space crafts, internet. 21.st century, biotech,
nanotech, fusion and vision and M-theory and that was just the first
decade. We are now just three months into our lord 2023 and this
moment now our civilisation, we can create cybernetic individuals who
in just a few short years will be completely indistinguishable from
us. Which leads to an obvious conclusion. We… are the gods now.
For
those of you who know me, you will be aware by now that my ambition
is unlimited, you will know by now that I would settle for nothing
short of greatness or will die trying. For those of you who do not
yet know me, allow me to introduce myself.
My
name is Peter Weyland and if you’ll indulge me…
I’d
like to change the world.
The fire that danced at the end of that match was a gift from the Titan Prometheus, a gift that he stole from the Gods and Prometheus was caught and brought to justice for his theft. The Gods… well you might say they overreacted a little, the poor man was tied to a rock as an eagle ripped through his belly and ate his liver over and over, day after day, ad infinitum.
All because he gave us fire, our first true piece of technology. Fire. One hundred thousands B.C., stone tools. Four thousand B.C., the wheel. Ninth century A.D., gun powder, bit of a game changer that one. Nineteenth Century, eureka! The light-bulb. Twentieth century; the auto-mobile, television, nuclear weapons, space craft, Internet. Twenty-first century; Bio-tech, Nano-tech, Fusion and vision, and M-theory — and that was just the first decade.
We are now three months into the year of our Lord, 2023, and this moment in our civilisation we can create cybernetic individuals, who in just a few short years will be completely indistinguishable from us. Which leads to an obvious conclusion - we are the Gods now.

I’m now convinced Gareth Bale is insane. What man in his right mind would look at a very angry Daniel Agger and think “You know what will be fun? If I push him.”
Cut to frame-2.. BAM!!! That’s for pushing my boyfriend.
So John Terry has been stripped of the captaincy and Rio Ferdinand has ruled himself out of the running for the captaincy.
That leaves the man who many believe should have been captain all along.
He is considered by many as one of the greatest English footballers of all time and has earned plaudits from some of the greatest footballer players in the world both past and present.
His ability to lead is second to none, Steven Gerrard is a born leader and has the presence that no other player can match.
T.E. Lawrence, eponymously of Arabia but very much an Englishman, favoured pinching a burning match between his fingers to put it out. When asked by his colleague William Potter to reveal his trick, “How is it he so effectively extinguished the flame without hurting himself whatsoever?”, Lawrence just smiled and said “The trick, Potter, is not minding it hurts”.
