    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    It's not a surprise that the models didn't accurately predict temps over the past 10 years. At least it's not a surprise if you know the slightest bit about how the models actually work. Plug in observed sea surface temps in the Pacific into a coupled ocean-atmosphere model rather than letting...

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    If there is no point discussing it why are you here offering up simplistic points about the climate always changing? I've read plenty from people interested in taking action but I doubt anything of substance will actually be done by policymakers for the foreseeable future. Plenty of info out...

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    I'm not interested in wasting my time with pointless semantic arguments. Change unnatural to human induced if it makes you feel better. Doesn't change my point one way or the other. If you ignore the recent reversal of the cooling trend yes you're absolutely right. The holocene has been...

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    Our definition of stable appears to be quite different but if you have links to climate recontructions or anything of that nature that support your assertion I'm happy to look. Unnatural means contrary to the ordinary course of nature. I think that's a fair description of events since the...

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    If you can explain to me with any sort of detail why changes in earth's climate over long timescales are relevant to our current circumstances I'm more than happy to listen but simply saying climate has always changed isn't an argument of any substance.

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    Not on this timescale and conflating natural and unnatural changes in earth's climate does nothing to advance the discussion.

    Science/Environment The Carbon Debate, pt III

    We have empirical evidence that man is the cause of the increase in CO2 in the atmosphere. We have a variety of evidence that indicates that CO2 and other greenhouse gasses have caused an imbalance in the earth's radiative energy budget (that the earth is absorbing more solar energy than it...

    Caroline Wilson renews push for Hird sacking

    This is the 2nd report of someone at Essendon asking about peptides. Makes you wonder why the AFL didn't follow up further considering both were reported to Clothier.

    Caroline Wilson renews push for Hird sacking

    Bombers fans will need to hope she's fallen for bad info once again. If she's got it from high up at the AFL though Hird's in serious trouble.

    Mega Thread All AOD-9604 Discussion - Still Illegal but ASADA will not press charges on AOD9604 - McDevitt

    ASADA pass their findings onto an independent panel to assess and the panel then decides whether to recommend sanctions to the AFL.

    Caroline Wilson renews push for Hird sacking

    Personally I thought the references to other substances was the far more interesting part of that statement.

    Mega Thread 2013: Trade Hypotheticals

    I'm not normally one for trade ideas but this seems like something that would fill a need for each team without anyone giving up something they couldn't live without. Might need to be tweaked a bit but seems a solid starting point. Yarran to WC Lycett to GWS Jaksch to Carlton Yarran and Jaksch...

    Official AOD-9604 Loophole Thread

    Robbo's latest has a tiny little bit on the defence. Something about the compounding chemist and individual use.
  15. M

    AOD 9604 prescribed and named on consent forms with Thymosin.

    Seems odd that that the type of thymosin being administered is not mentioned. Wonder why they didn't specify?

    Shane Charter on Dank

    30 players from 6 clubs were on his books back in 03 according to this article so not sure how relevant it is to the current situation. http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/a-peep-behind-the-sporting-curtain-20130419-2i5io.html?rand=1366380671966

    Shane Charter on Dank

    Not bright enough to understand what was going on you reckon? Good thing the Bombers were looking out for him then.

    Shane Charter on Dank

    Considering the text messages and the documentation already provided to ASADA which mentions thymosin it's a pretty big coincidence. Assuming of course Charter's claims can be verified. Though if the thymosin beta 4 wasn't for Essendon all they need to do is show they purchased an approved...

    Shane Charter on Dank

    apparently Gerard Healy raised concerns directly with the AFL long before that. http://www.smh.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-was-told-of-peptides-inquiry-20130205-2dwvk.html?skin=text-only

    Rumour The Thread formerly known as the rumour file, now with zero rumours

    An opposition coach met with one of our contracted players during the season? I'm not sure what the AFL rules are but most professional sports prohibit that sort of contact.

    Luke Breust vs Jeff Garlett

    Garlett's been in shocking form this year and his kicking for goal has fallen away completely so have to go Breust. Prior to this season Garlett. I'd take Betts over either of them.

    Rumour The Thread formerly known as the rumour file, now with zero rumours

    48 goals last year and 39 the year before is a lot more than Brown, Swift or Smith have ever shown. If he does want to go I certainly hope we don't settle for blokes of this sort of quality just because he's had a down year. Would be better off with a pick.

    Luke Shueys elbow to the groin, appeals 2 week sentence

    Rumour The Thread formerly known as the rumour file, now with zero rumours

    Where he was picked is irrelevant. He's no doubt out of form but he's already shown he can play at a level much higher than Swift has ever shown. He's not worth Shuey or Kennedy but offering up Swift won't get you far.

    Telstra's Thodey says Coalition's broadband plan is faster and cheaper than the NBN

    Well how much bandwidth will Australian consumers need going forward? According to the ABS we've almost tripled the volume of data we download since 2009 with basically all of that via fixed line. Cisco in their VNI forecast predicted our internet traffic will reach 20 Gigabytes per capita in...

    The Law Marriage Equality II

    I've never really understood the arguments against gay marriage. It doesn't affect anyone outside of those lesbian or gay couples wishing to get married and it's a relatively simple change to existing laws. Polygamy on the other hand is nowhere near as simple to implement. We'd need to change...

    Telstra's Thodey says Coalition's broadband plan is faster and cheaper than the NBN

    Smartphones have one of the fastest adoption rates of any tech in history so growth rates in mobile internet usage isn't going to tell you the whole story. The important question is whether mobile internet is complementing or replacing fixed internet. Considering 93% of data in Australia is over...

    Could Julia Gillard see out the year as PM?

    Spectrum is a shared resource with finite limits. The more subscribers there are using large amounts of data the less there is available to others. As more 4G devices become available and subscribers increase speeds will be impacted especially in densely populated areas unless more and more...

    Telstra's Thodey says Coalition's broadband plan is faster and cheaper than the NBN

    It's also just a measure of pageviews from mobile devices and tells you next to nothing about data usage or broadband usage patterns. It can't even separate devices using 3G or 4G from devices accessing the internet through their home network via wifi. Considering the volume of smartphones...
