The previous one is a little difficult. Can be googled but I 'm not letting you know the words to look for ! Here is another one: You are given the number sequence 4, 11, 18, 25, 32 ... . It's an arithmetic progression with starting term = 4, common difference = 7. You form decimal numbers thus: 0.4 0.411 0.41118 0.4111825 0.411182532 i.e. you put the digits of the next term of the sequence to the right every time. These numbers tend to a limit which we call L. Prove that L is an irrational number.

We played two matches in one day ? Extraordinary. Did any players appear in both ?

City were for laughs yesterday in America. They did n't even try though.

Maybe indifference is an excuse for the overall result and the German's third goal was a gift by the referee, but CFC tried to pull one back in the second half and there was no finishing touch whatsoever. Bremen's keeper was needed in the two corner kicks only.

Didier will make it 2-4.

English teams playing friendlies is a joke. I don't mean they should exert themselves in such matches, but it's a joke. I 'm talking about today's and the hyper-soup M. City display yesterday

That sounds like a better test.

Good training session. The Fabregas foul was super, if he can pull this trick in the league Platini style he will save many points.

The Pals although definitely wronged, never in their lives tried a peaceful approach. They started with Leila Khaled beck in 1968, who at least did not hurt the passengers and she managed to enchant Sir Alec. But 46 years later they keep using bombs and rockets against airplanes, passenger boats, street shops, to destroy the state of Israel. That way it does n't work and in the end the same weapons are used against them.

How many rearrangements of the first N natural numbers exist so all the numbers are in the wrong place ? Examples: For N = 1, set = {1}, arrangements = (1). It does n't count so the answer is 0. For N = 2, set = {1,2}, arrangements = (1-2), (2-1). Only the (2-1) counts and the answer is 1. For N = 3, set = {1,2,3}, arrangements = (1-2-3), (1-3-2), (2-1-3), (2-3-1), (3-1-2), (3-2-1). The (2-3-1) and the (3-1-2) count so the answer is 2. What is the formula ?

Remember Roger Milla of Cameroon, or even Karagounis of Greece ? In some matches it's the last twenty minutes that count (for ex. against Everton last season). But Drogba is not for the "intelligence service" role of the two aforementioned. He is a power forward, so can he do it ?

I don't like the way "our" two NT's (Brazil-Spain) collected wooden spoon in the wc.

The Arab-Israeli conflict dominates this thread, perhaps not unhustifiably so. I have already stated my opinion that the only option is peace. Peace sounds utopian but war is also utopian because no one wins. At the same time there some more critical issues around. Europe is threatened with economic junta. Unemployment, big brother follows you every step. Do you know that your bank accounts are being monitored by law ? For hundreds of years people were worried that their political beliefs were monitored. That's gobbledugook now. Who cares if I voted for the centrists and not the social reformists ? If they actually do, I don't mind taking a trip to secret police headquarters and tell them all about it. But your personal belongings are being monitored. If my aunt Dorothy from Ohio-USA mails me 50 bucks for Christmas sweets, it is being monitored. Chances are they will say "oh it's his aunt Dorothy again with a little gift - let it go", but if they want they confiscate it for VAT issue ! That's the democracy we have. It's the sort of thing Stalin did to Baltic countries in 1938 when he annexed them. Took all the money from the grannies and left them with one rouble. Some people react to this by becoming nationalist. That's yet another madness because the nationalists are the number one totalitarians.

Holland is the only country worth immigrating. Amsterdam pikipikiram. UK is sizzling but ... When I was living in UK we had licensing hours. One day I wanted to give a big deck recorder to a friend. But at 5 pm he was not returned from his work and at the same time the pubs were shut because of licensing hours. So I waited in the pavement and the fuzz caught me on the charge of vagrancy ! And I was wearing two piece suit as well ! The fuzz said I bet you record sex orgies in that deck of yours but then released me.

I proposed Griezmann here back in April. Also Bonnie of Swansea. I don't know who is after him if any, but what is your opinion ? I liked this man a lot in the premier.

To become a nominee for "best player ever" you have to wait until you retire and Messi is still active. There are the likes of Pele, Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Maradona he has to compete against. There is also Di Stefano but I have n't seen him playing (except for once with the colours of Espanyol in his last season as player). He has some opponents.

I rather liked him in the wc and also in sociedad matches I watched last season.

If they stopped it from 1967 all of them, they 'd be richer than England now.
