Footballers setting bad example

Recent media coverage of Cheltenham races, and Adam Johnson show me that they are setting a bad example to impressionable young people at the least.
Remember Ched Evans, now he's appealing his Rape sentence and why not, its legal.

I ask though where does the FA stand? Why is there not a "code of professional conduct" so Footballers can be disciplined/struck off for bringing the game into disrepute or Crimes just like teachers can no longer teach if they are convicted of a Sex Crime. Footballers are no better than anyone else of above the Law.

Floating Solar Farm.

I've said it before - 2/3 of the earth is sea. Why don't they float solar panels on the sea some where sunny - south of Britain. No one can see them so no objections.

Must be cheaper that digging and building wind turbines. What effect does this have on the Lake life though?

Energy prices real scandal

Not mentioned, but its a scandal that energy prices are added to by HMG with 5% VAT and 11% "green" surcharge. As they go up so HMG gets more money. Its also the fact that most on pre-payments are either on low incomes or benefits thus HMG is making THEM pay over the odds to the Companies when HMG is paying them. If you work out the cost per unit they are proportionately more for the first units, plus the standing charge so again unfair to those on low incomes and trying to economise. But also if we had better insulation and lower energy appliances/lights etc we'd all save money. Then they give the companies building Nuclear billions in subsidies yet cut off the measly subsidy for solar panels on your roof. I despair - it will never make sense.

Windows 7 Enterprise “failing updates”

Windows 7 Enterprise “failing updates”

After scouring around I downloaded update KB3102810. Manually installed it, rebooted and tried updates again and hey presto they are now downloading (quickly) and guess what there are 216!!

I expected a lot for a new installation. So I’m letting it do them.

“good old “Microsh*t” – they have obviously corrected something along the way that stops updates downloading/installing properly but don’t tell you about a fix. Of course we’re all supposed to be using Win 10 now any way.

Happy computing
