Of course you dont, but white collar crime is not always as evident as a break in to a house.
Does the lesser conviction rate mean that people are getting off or more people are being trialed for it, but that more of the accusations are unfounded.

How do these figures get worked out - how do they know how much crime (white collar) has increased if not through conviction rates.

IMO Internet Explorer is the best browser out there at the moment especially for HTML5 support. Me I'm still using Firefox as IE is still a little bloated and buggy unless you are running a high end machine.

HTML5 support on chrom, opera and firefox all beat IE 10 as far as i am aware.

How much money do you think Chris Baird was paid by some dodgy gambling syndicate? Comical misses. Guess NI know how Portugal feel, kicking in match all night & little to show.  Thought the commentators were getting a bit 'johnny foreigner' near the end.

Have to say Norn are very easy to watch, lovely style of football, much better than thon other shower, give me the scour watching them.

Young Ferguson looks a fine prospect.

Not just baird - cathcart cant have slept well last night either, and lafferty should have scored.

Thought we had too many passengers last night too - dean shiels i dont think should be starting or near it, and mcginn had a poor game after usually being one of my favoured players.

McCourt made a massive difference when he came on - he raised the crowd again when it was going flat - too many of our players continually pass it sideways where he was running at them.

Billy, they can actually remove books from your kindle when you sync up, so you could still find it gets removed at some stage.

The guy is based in derry so would actually go up so would be fit to check if it's a fake. He's getting really good feedback on his previous sales. been chatting him on email and he says it's the same spec as a Samsung galaxy only that it doesn't have a rear facing camera. He says it's quicker than the galaxy as it runs an overlay called whizz (Haven't a fecking clue what he's on about!!) and can run native android (Whatever that is???)
He gives a years warranty as well.

It sounds like he has made it to his own spec, but it probably hasn't gone through the rigorous testing.

Its not his own spec - its a ztpad c93

Sketchy enough detail on specs - wouldnt go for it myself.

I have the nexus 7 - decent job, but for those who want a bigger screen (less portable which is why i went 7") the nexus 10 is released today and has great specs for the price.

McClean has every right to choose not to wear a poppy - whats the point in such a symbol if people are forced to wear it, rather than choosing to.

Some of the reaction to this is ridiculous - but then again we see this sort of thing all the time - the reactions of some people to someone wearing a poppy can be very ott too.

Rubin kazan played barca 4 times in that period - 1 win and 2 draws the got from them too.
#55
I still think the 1 yellow was one of the most impressive things (barca got 2).
11 vs 8 fouls also show that it wasnt just a kicking session

Yeah most UTD men that I would know have it in for Celtic, but that was a cracking result last night and some effort put in for the whole match. The stats showed that Barca had 89 percent of the ball and still lost, unreal!!

An amazing stat - but only one yellow card for celtic is really amazing too.

Tv channels insisting someone wear a poppy is ridiculous.
Only eejits are truly offended by someone choosing to wear or not wear a poppy.

This tony watt kid going to be a player?

QuoteBut there is an abject failure by those of a unionist bent to recognise that hurt, killings, torture and the troubles were not solely the fault of one community

I dont know anyone who thinks this.
