Yes just saw that The Fifa president Sepp Blatter made the startling disclosure yesterday that he could not rule out a rerun of the voting for the right to host the 2022 World Cup finals which was controversially won by the tiny Arab emirate of Qatar in December. Blatter, who is seeking re-election next month for a fourth term, said that a Fifa inquiry into claims made by The Sunday Times that there was corruption in the vote could lead to the Fifa executive committee (ExCo) voting again. It would represent the biggest U-turn in the governing body's history. ---- Both -
I couldn't see the real point behind "smartphones" until I got one (from work). I get it now, and really enjoy using it. Don't go overboard but some of the features are really useful to have. And I'm pretty sure that if some feature "breaks" (?), I just go into Docomo and they give me a new one. As I take a regular backup there's not much hassle there.

I'm the type who just shoves things aside when finished with, no organisation at all. One year I did that and let my gear fester. It was a right off when I looked for it next December. Decided to get a new jacket and boots it was in such a bad state. -
Cut off their balls, I say. Quote: Police in southern Russia are investigating allegations of animal cruelty after a donkey was made to parasail as part of an advertising stunt, Russian media report. The donkey was sent up into the sky last week by entrepreneurs hoping to attract people to their private beach. Witnesses near the beach on the Sea of Azov in the Krasnodar region said the animal had been screaming in fear. It landed in the water and was pulled onto the shore, said police. "The donkey screamed and children cried," regional police spokeswoman Larisa Tuchko

Car Hire Hokkaido

Some of those car navis now are pretty advanced. I really enjoy using them, and even people without Japanese knowledge will have little problem using them. Perhaps need help with programming a route or whatever but after that simple. -

The pool really should repay the favour united gave them by beating city by beating chelsea. Its just manners. -
Clearing bodies from Everest

We should really call it Chomolungma. -
Nice job, going up there to move corpses. Quote: A team of Nepali mountaineers will leave Kathmandu tomorrow heading for Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, where they hope to climb to more than 8,000 metres (26, 246ft) to clear the mountain's "death zone" of tonnes of rubbish and remove the bodies of dead climbers. Though many foreign and Nepali expeditions have set out to clear parts of the mountain in the past, Namgyal Sherpa, leader of the Extreme Everest Expedition 2010, said no one had tried to clear at that height. "This is the first time we are cleaning the death zone.
