www.ultimate-guitar.com/Guitar tabs are what you need to get started. I'm sure that website has a tutorial. If not, you'll find an explanation somewhere. Tis a good way to learn chords, but you'll more than likely need some sort of lessons if you want to play lead.

Yeah I agree. I hate it when Ferguson starts with that crap.
Anyone watching the Valencia match? I'm wondering if the Batman-esque symbol on the front is part of their sponsorship or if it;s their own design.
Also, the pitch is a disgrace.

Yeah Burley's a moron. He wants to build a reputation as a guy who tells it like it is and doesn't pull punches, but it doesn't quite work when your IQ is sub-75.
I always liked him as a player, but as a commentator of the game he's an imbecile.

I thought the sending off may have been a bit harsh, but I suppose you can`t go kicking water bottles about on the sidelines. His behaviour afterwards was poor though. Turned the whole thing into a circus. Wenger actually looked like a guy who had lost it when he started climbing about the stands.
But then Old Trafford has the tunnel in the corner of the pitch so it was going to be a long walk back to the changing rooms. Put the tunnel where it's meant to be!

It's the absolute lack of shame that has come after it..........If Wenger or Eduardo had come out after the game and said it was a stupid thing to do then people would likely have been content to let things be dealt with by UEFA........Instead Wenger denies it was a dive then starts bleating about a conspiracy when his player is rightly bought up on charges Yeah this is what has annoyed me about it all. No class at all. Celtic beat Hibs in Edinburgh 1-0, with Aiden McGeady sent off for, you guessed it, diving! The replay I saw looked like he`d been clipped, but apparently one they showed later, when I'd gone to grab a juice showed it to be a dive. Well as far as I'm concerned, if it was a dive, McGeady deserves any punishment he gets. Diving is bad enough but to do it now is unbelievable. Craig Burley was quick to shout dive at Chris Killen, but to be fair to Killen I think he was anticipating the challenge and got up straight away when he wasn`t touched, which I think is the big difference. He wasn`t looking for any foul or card and he got on with it. If he hadn`t jumped over the guy, he would`ve run into him and in which case it would`ve been a foul as the guy slid in in front of him. Samaras as usual scores one, then misses 3 easier chances that would`ve finished the game. As it happens we ended up being under the kosh for the last 5 or 10 minutes. Boruc also produced a huge save at one point from a great shot that kept us in the lead. A hard fought 3 points.

Quite an eventful game there!
Arsenal were the better team in the first half for me. Man U were only allowed back into the match because of a daft foul by Almunia and that own goal. At which point Arsenal pretty much collapsed.
It was all Man U from that point onwards with only some piss poor finishing from Man U stopping them from racking up a cricket score.
A dive from Eboue (?) at one point really won`t do Arsenal any favours if they want the diving accusations to go away any time soon.
Wenger got sent off for what looked like kicking a juice bottle after the goal was ruled offside. He then proceeded to make a complete arse out of himself. That was embarassing.

I'm not a fan of brown. That's not to say it can't look good when done right, but for the most part it looks like shit.

I imagine people aren`t catching on because it`s kinda wierd.
Maybe you could say hello through the medium of dance instead. Or curtsey.

Well you have to start somewhere. Might as well start here.
Also, just watched Wenger's reaction to it all and have to say that I just lost a lot of respect for him.

It`s a dive. There's no two ways about it. 'It was a slippery pitch' doesn`t cut it dude. He cheated and desrves to be punished for it. As does everyone else who cheats.
The only way Eduardo could feel hard done by is that if someone else does something similar and escapes punishment.

You'll need a helluva lot of time for Fallout 3. I know guys that have racked up around 100 hours on that.
Uncharted is a bit more compact though. You could probably get through that in around 10 hours.

I liked them. We`re getting a different campaign in Europe which isn`t as cool at all.

I`m a big fan of Hulk: UD. Haven`t yet managed to play Prototype but it`s on my 'to buy' list.
Dunno if it counts, but inFamous is really good too. Not based on an established comic book of course, but a very good super hero game none the less.

See, FIFA instructed referees at the last World Cup to only book players for diving if they were absolutely sure the player had dived. They also instructed them to clamp down on slide tackles. Gerrard was the victim of this when he was sent off for blocking a shot at the edge of the box.
This to me shows that the governing bodies aren`t really all that worried about diving and play acting, which is sad as it leads to more and more of it when players think they can get away with it.

On one hand, it would be harsh to single out Eduardo for his dive, as he`s not the first and won`t be the last player to do so.
On the other hand, I would LOVE to see Uefa/FIFA/FAs stamp it out by slapping a 3 match ban on players who do it. If Eduardo thought he`d miss the first 3 matches of the Champions League, he would`ve stayed on his feet last night. Likely, the other players who do it would too.
I would also like to see a tougher stance on feigning injury. The SFA took action last season against Kyle Lafferty when he threw himself to the ground, and I`d like to see more of that kind of thing done (the action, not the diving). At times I`m nearly pulling my hair out watching eg Drogba limping or rolling about the ground in an attempt to get another player sent off.

Certainly wasn`t a penalty and while Celtic can feel hard done by for that decision, there`s no doubting that Arsenal were the better team and deserved to go through.
I was glad that we eventually saw the real Arsenal in this game as going out to such a great team by a freak deflection, an own goal and a duff penalty would`ve been too much to take!

I have a really good connection with Virgin. Never had any complaints about speed certainly.
