Yeah, but on the autobahn there is no speed limit.
Raising it to 80 would only bring it inline with autoroutes in France: 130km/h (80mph) and 110km/h (69mph) in rain.
The French are (statistically) terrible drivers, but the autoroutes are the places you're least likely to see accidents (in my experience anyway).
carbs are, traditionally, the bedrock of human consumption. Hell, we look at the start of society by farming of a carbohydrate source.
Humans appeared about 200,000 years ago, and agriculture about 12,000 years ago.
Society didn't appear with the development of agriculture; humans lived in social groups from their first appearance. Humans evolved for immediate-return foraging (like our closest relatives, chimpanzees and bonobos), not for agriculture.
Many? I thought it was only Holland and Finland.
And 1 and 2 cent coins are still legal tender in those two countries, they just don't issue them (or have prices which are not divisible by 5 cents).
Yes, Britain should be more like the US, where there is no mass snooping of email and call data.
Phew! I can now relax, knowing that AGW is not real, and that they vast, vast majority of climatologists are just lying for some unknown reason.
And all thanks to an anonymous person on the internet who makes a bunch of assertions without citations.
The problem here is the separation of content and style.
Sometimes images are style (replace an H1 with an image), sometimes they're content ('Granny feeding the ducks at the park').
The first example should be in the CSS, the second in the HTML.
Putting content in the stylesheet is as bad as putting styles in the markup.
The thing is that that's not the most effective way to learn the basics of a second or third language.
Second-language acquisition is a well-studied field, and at least some teaching in the learner's own language (or a language that they know well) is more effective than immersion.
As an example, I can quickly teach you that almost all words that end in 'tion' in English are the same in French (pronunciation differs, of course), and they are all feminine, with the notable exception of 'translation'. And now you have hundreds of French words. Similarly for Spanish, except the endings are spelt 'ción' and there are a few more exceptions. Repeat with the suffix 'able'. It's the power of language transfer.
information -> information -> información
administration -> administration -> administración
education -> éducation -> educación
masturbation -> masturbation -> masturbación
etc.
The reason language schools promote teaching solely in the target language is because it's easier for them: they can teach students with many native languages in the same class.
The City of London Police are abusing their power to enforce civil matters and shut down legitimate search engines.
And what's really odd is that this domain is blocked in the UK by the big ISPs anyway. It was blocked along with a bunch of others back in October 2013.
If I try to access it on my current ISP, I get redirected here: http://assets.virginmedia.com/site-blocked.html.
So the City Police are trying to take down a domain that you can't even access directly in the UK.
I'm just aware that the teacher's union really doesn't know much about teaching. They protect teachers and they do that regardless of what a teacher might have done. At the same time they spend the majority of their high dues on nice salaries for far too many administrators. This is a statement to try to support teachers, done badly, as I would expect from them.
Really? You know all this about the ATL, a small teachers' union in the UK? Impressive.
Do you have personal experience of the ATL, or are you just speculating wildly?
Photography has become illegal in Europe due to misguided "privacy" laws. It's just ridiculous that I cannot do street photography in Europe because the European governments have decided that we photographers should ask people before we take their photo or publish it!
While this is true in certain countries in certain circumstances (France and Spain come to mind) it is certainly not true in the UK.
So this isn't a Europe-wide problem, and definitely isn't the fault of the EU.
Given the comment below about Islamic gangs it is probably about restricting the materials read. If this counts as some kind of censorship, then it seems to me to be an acceptable form, provided it is limited to prisons.
The new ban includes underwear and stationery. It's not about restricting what inmates read, it's about enforcing the new 'earned privileges' regime.
Books and magazines sent into UK prisons are already censored. For example, porn is now banned.
Google does have a way to report spam;
Other than the bloody huge 'Report spam' button, the same size and right next to the 'delete' button, that is.

Just two off the top of my head:
Tamil Tigers (yes, atheist suicide bombers, no less!)
I'm sure there are plenty of other (pretty much by definition atheist) Marxist-Leninist terrorist groups.
Scientists will study your brain to learn more about your distant cousin, Man.
