South America's wayward footballing stereotypes 09:37am on 03 Aug 2009 Tim, love the column every week.

However I think England's World Cup 1990 team has been somewhat polished by time. The achievement of reaching the semis was a good one, but it wasn't done by a technically excellent team.

England were pretty sterile against Ireland, Holland and Egypt in the group, fortunate against a marginally superior Belgium in second round, very fortunate against a clearly superior Cameroon in the quarters, and then played very well against the Germans in the semis and were a little unlucky to lose.
Let football be the winner 5:12pm on 25 Jun 2008 Claudia Roth, co-head of the German Green Party, "We have to be able to neutralize young people. We have to given them the feeling they belong here," she told Hurriyet.

Neutralizing young people sounds a little harsh, even for the Green Party, what does she mean, carbon neutral?

Naturalize might be better..
Picture error 11:35am on 17 May 2008 The Magic Monkey,

the rollover text on the image stated it was a doll I believe, rather than a child's body.
Picture error 5:31pm on 16 May 2008 I think it's fine to make a mistake, so long as you correct it as you have.

i find the use of the doll image on the home page of the website to illustrate the scale of the disaster more disturbing, at a glance it looks like a child's body.
