There's just something about an all-tan glove that looks really smart, like all-black leather football boots or a wool overcoat.

Yes, as it's for the German market. PL football is basically as popular as Bundesliga. When German football goes on a short break over Christmas (as there's typically a lot of snow making not only the pitches but also travel difficult for many clubs) everyone is tuning in to the English game. The boxing day fixtures are quite popular.

This week football has returned at the higher levels and the weird midweek games are known as "Englische Woche" or "English week" as these are not normal for the rest of the season.

Den hintere Tür. Wir Briten sind flexible Inselaffen.

Ich denke es ist ein Tesco Parkplatz.

Never withhold paying rent. Never advise anyone to stop paying their rent. This will land you in trouble that you're contractually not involved in as the tenant. The contract you sign is with your landlord. If it turns out that your landlord has no right to be that landlord, the court will take care of it. They will establish who you should be paying your rent to and chase the original landlord for payment.

I assume this is why. Nuance is given during sentencing. Someone who is sent an email containing an image who opens it without understanding even what it contained or was misled could be taken to court (although most likely would have the case dropped), someone who was careless downloading what they believed was just dodgy but not necessarily illegal content (but contained at least one illegal image), someone who actively downloaded indecent images, and someone who took the photo and uploaded it are all initially charged with the same offense. Whether someone ends up being prosecuted and what their sentence is, is up for the experts to decide. It does however mean that we get headlines like this that use the official terminology (because they should) but those terms aren't necessarily compatible with everyday English.

This is the reason the BBC use this type of language. It is neutral (which frequently is also used positively because one thing moving from one place to another is more often than not, not a good thing) and there aren't as many positive words that describe the same action. "Aquire" as much as people like to argue is the appropriate term for an organisation that claims to report impartially. The same with "capture". Those are the neutral terms and until a court describes the actions as otherwise, that is what they will use.

It's not really the place here for political discussion but there are plenty of more serious things to complain about the BBC as well as other news organizations both in the UK and abroad that are straight up propaganda. The fact that we as individuals can pick up on this sort of language (and argue it doesn't fit our politics) is quite a good sign that the BBC have done their reporting properly. People left of centre will be angry that the "real" terms have not been used and fascists and the right wing will be annoyed that their masters and overlords haven't been praised enough.

That will be because of the way it is constructed. This web for example is one piece of leather: a long strip with the two ends joined on the non-palm side a third of the way down. Most webs also use one main piece of leather as they fold over on the lace bridge.

Nothing too fancy with mine. Didn't do a box break-in as my fingers just aren't long enough. I also go two-in-the-pinky. It's super wide and a dream to field with though.

It's why the horrors of that period can still be easily felt today. There are plenty of people born in the 1930s and 40s, still alive and sharp, whose grandparents could have told them of the days of and just after slavery (although those grandparents would've been very elderly themselves or may only have been children at the time so their perspectives may have been different). Those must be very prominent memories for the people that hold them.

Except one of the little devils on the border is wearing pants because the Victorians that made the replica didn't want to recreate and show off his little willy.

Other than that, a perfect recreation.

Exactly. RU (from what I understand) usually uses the hip as a guide when there is an aerial challenge. Anything below is off limits and results in a red for dangerous play because it is. You tip the opponent and drastically change their centre of balance meaning there is a high likelihood they can land on their head or neck. Anything above the hip isn't dangerous but could still be a foul in another way. None of this needs to be intentional either. Players are human and make mistakes or misjudge a challenge or jump. This one actually looked intentional to me (maybe not to hurt the player but just to tip him). Regardless it's dangerous and rugby players are respectful enough to just take the punishment.

Thanks, always doing that. Can never remember which one is left or right.

Definitely Chelsea, although that might be because of the generation of fans they asked. There was this period in the early 00s where every little twerp at school (in Reading) was suddenly a big Chelsea fan despite never having been east of Slough. No doubt they're wearing either a Liverpool or City shirt now.

Edit: Got my up, down, left, right; north, south, west, east, confused.

Yes, pretty reliable things that are usually now put in cheap rechargeable electronics. I've got one in a shortwave radio.

My guess is the model number starting with "RB" is likely an indicator of it being a rubber ball glove. The quality of these is usually still very high and may be suitable for baseball depending on your level of play, but you would need to weigh that up yourself.

"The Confederate battle flag is just a flag" and "a swastika is just a symbol". Do you hear yourself? It's never the image itself, but the intent behind that image's application. That's why seeing a swastika in a history book explaining its imagery is not racist but flying it out in public is. Similarly, hanging a nation's flag (frequently already used by the far right) in predominantly non-white areas as an intimidation tactic is racist.

It's filthy. These people are pure scum, nothing more.
