  1. ...though both cowboys and rustling may well be involved somewhere! Even if there was no emptoring - and the board were appointees - then they should have/be doing a substantial amount of caveating! The chairman and his board need to do some quick revision on their legal responsibilities. Here is a good starting place for their revision. Paragraph 11 would be particularly relevant, and doesn't provide for I-didn't-knows/nobody-told-mes. Paragraphs 16 to 20 might focus minds. My original post seems to indicate so. I never watched Blackadder, but didn't it popularise a phrase about planning?
  2. It's worse than that merc! He states he was told three times there was no debt. A senior official of a company is required to find these things out for themselves and not to take what others say at face value. If he can't read his own company's accounts, or find someone who can, then he shouldn't have taken the job in the first place! He should be presenting the full facts to the club, and not coming up with excuses that read like a kiddie's sickie! A competent company chairman would call a meeting of members at the first opportunity. In such a serious matter it should probably be a meeting of all club members and not just significant stakeholders. Bedlington deserves better than this!
  3. Upshot is that you shouldn't open any .PDF files that you aren't fully aware of the source of. The vulnerability is being exploited so this is not just academic stuff! Adobe PDF Reader 9.5.3, 10.1.5, and 11.0.1 are all affected, and there are no fixes just yet. http://www.computerw...researchers_say
  4. Hmmm... I recommend a full backup before installing this one. In fact I'm doing that for someone else's machine right now! Reason: I expected a smooth experience, but no! My own very stable W7 machine didn't reboot and went to a black screen with only the mouse cursor. Half an hour later just the same - this on an i5 machine with a top of the line SSD! Rebooted only on the third attempt, and only after a cold boot. Suddenly a Chromebook is looking very attractive, and I'm definitely going to aim at creating a Windows virtual machine to run under Linux, rather than the other way around!

If not someone really should tell Companies House! I like this song:
  6. The Romanians have employed Gordon Brown as PR consultant. The latest line from Bucharest is that it's a global problem!
  7. http://blog.avast.com/2013/02/08/malware-on-la-times/ Apparently this has been going on since late last year!
  8. Nonsense! It's a well-know fact that they regularly wreck restaurants in order to (re)distribute the fruits of the earth to their poorer brethren. I vividly recall Lady Dutt-Pauker delivering a charming anecdote concerning one such raid on her favourite Hampstead restaurant.

    Cool Stuff

    I want one powerful enough to bring me a cup of coffee from the kitchen - the (fl)iTrayâ„¢!.
  10. It had to happen! An on-line Horse Consumption Calculator ==================== A horse is not beef, of course, of course, And no one would eat horse of course That is, of course, unless the horse is the Findus Mr. Ed. Go right to the sauce to mask the horse It'll give you the taste that you'll endorse. He's always in the pasta course. Fork to Mr. Ed. ==================== ...and the best one so far:
  11. Tuesday will see the release of a large number of security patches to Microsoft software. Full details are here: http://technet.micro...lletin/ms13-feb The main patches are to gaping security holes - some already being exploited - in Internet Explorer 10 going all the way back to Version 6! Several of these vulnerabilities permit remote code execution. There's also a new version of the MS Malicious Software Removal Tool.
  12. Waiter, waiter, is there any chance that this beef lasagne could contain horse? A chance in a million sir... it always came in last!
  13. For once I agree 100% with Soros - it has to happen, but it will happen over the dead bodies of the politicos, and after they've made the situation immeasurably worse. We need to lead by getting out right away and negotiating free trade agreements - keeping the best aspects and ditching the empire building. Cameron's timetable is just kicking the can down the road and playing into the hands of those who accuse the Euro-realists of creating uncertainty for business'. Vote UKIP and let's aim to get our notice on Rumpy Pumpy's desk at the earliest possible moment. It will still take until 2016 to extract us from the mess, even if we were to start negotiating today! History shows you can't trust Cameron anway - even if he were to win the next election. And if Labour were to win we be totally up the creek without a paddle because Milliband and Balls are the most clueless twits ever to lead any party! It's clarity of purpose, or political infighting and back-room deals going on for years.
  14. In cinemas soon: Only For Lasagne! ...the gripping sequel to: http://uk.imdb.com/t...ref_=fn_tt_tt_1
  15. A miss is as good as a Milliband!
  16. To maintain truth in advertising the lasagne product line is being over-stamped as Findhaus.
  17. Seconded! I try to provide a core quote when I see something that I think is worth discussion. It's always a bit hit and miss as you never know what will stir passions in Terrierville! I'm still hopeful on Raspberry Pi though!
  18. ...oh Draghi, Draghi, Draghi ...oh Draghi, Draghi, Draghi Monte Dei Paschi Bank CEO Fabrizio Viola speaks during a news conference Hey!! Hey!! ...and it only took six years to come clean on! Safe as Barings and the Bank of England I reckon. I wonder which bank he deposits his seven figure bonus in?
  19. Anyone want to submit some display ads to test the bedlington.co.uk sidebar rotator? Size 270 width x 320 height, .jpg or .gif, as compact as possible so's not to impact load times. Must be fully relevant to a Bedlington audience. Your reward: thousands of free displays! Upload to your gallery, PM me, and I will do the rest.
  20. http://rastrack.co.uk/ If that's anything like accurate - wow! Was going to get one or two last year but I settled for an Olimex board, as those have a completely open design. Anyone in Bedders playing with a RP? And... for those who haven't got a clue what this is all about: http://www.raspberrypi.org/
  21. Our privacy policy: http://www.bedlingto.../privacypolicy/ But basically bedlington.co.uk guards member's email address', and will not disclose any private information without a UK court order. We do not sell any information to any other party, and you are in sole control of what is published about you and held on-line (edit or re-edit your profile). Nothing is 100% secure, but we have our own servers, and don't rely on the security of a third party internet service provider like most other boards do. We keep our software bang up to date, and even have one of the authors of this very popular software - used world-wide - on-board to see to this. In short we are local people supporting our own town, and not a faceless US corporation who is solely out to make money out of you. In supporting bedlington.co.uk you are supporting your own community, and nothing else!

You can also click on a member's name or icon (above and left on their posts), and hit their [send me a message] button.
  23. Why would Cameron help the LD's when they went back on the boundary changes deal? Oh sorry that was near fully a year ago! A full year of continuing to protest his innocence, then he's nailed by an old SMS from his son! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-21320992 Thing is this could very nearly have been our deputy PM, and you have to do far better at telling porkies to occupy that eminent position!
  24. ...and how little reinforcing they put into their road bridges?
  25. Picture from recent Apple patent application. Maybe it's really just those patentable tables again?
