  1. When did Kiev become Kyiv?

     

    I've been there a couple of time on business, and I've always referred to it as Kyiv. That's the English equivalent of the Ukrainian spelling. Kiev is the anglicized version of the Russian spelling.

    I'm not sticking up for him, but girls can make themselves look a lot older than they actually are (or just look older naturally). You see 15 year old girls who look well into their 20's. But she knows how old she is and he doesn't, so I'd put more blame on her if she's told him she's older etc.

     

    If he's known how old she is and willingly had sex with her or whatever, then he has no sympathy from me and should have the book thrown at him. But we don't know all the information and shouldn't be so quick to castigate him.

    Not sure why one day under 18 is unacceptable and one day over is perfectly fine. Is there something particularly moral about an 18th birthday? Legally maybe, but otherwise?

     

    He took advantage. He's supposed to be a role model- or at least that's how we used to view top players. He just lost any respect he may have had before.

  3. wanna see us without besic. like the lad but dont feel we are as mobike as we can be with him in the side. he tackles well, he passes well, he makes space for himself well, but hes still missing something vital in my eyes.

     

    I thought he was excellent after coming on in midweek.

  4. Wow, Hafnia's shite talk has really rubbed off on you.

     

    If I was asked who's post this was, with no username provided, I'd definitely say Hafnia.

     

    It's true, though, isn't it? How long do you wait for a player to have an extended run of good health - to make up for the losses incurred when he was out for repair? At some point, you have to make a decision. I'd rather have a Toyota that works than a Lotus that's always in the shop for repair.

  5. How does that work? No sales tax or state tax? They just gouge you on property and estate tax or not enough people live there to make it significant?

     

    I think I remembered wrongly. State income tax was zero, not sales tax (which is 6 percent). Your question remains valid, though.

    New Hampshire has neither income tax nor state tax.

    Getting back on track, Tim Howard is from New Jersey, so his save percentage should be 7%.
