Do you think that Chauncey Billups will be back to the Nuggets within a month or two?

Saturday, June 11th, 2011

Remember he said that he doesn’t want to leave Denver and wants to retire a Nugget so he can be a part of the management. He can do what Big Z did last year and ask for a contract buyout and then return with the Nuggets in 30 days.

No Chanucy Say he doesnt want to Play For The Nets if he was Traded There. and if he was he wanted a Buyout and if Chanucy does want to go back to the Nuggets they Cloud Trade Him for A Good Center and Pg if he goes. so New York cloud basiclly use Billiups for Intreset in other teams if they want to trade him. but Carmelo cloud convice Him To stay in New York with Amare and wait until Chris Paul comes Next Year(Joke) and have a New York Big 4. so Donny Walsh is a smart Gm and would trade Billups only if he wants out Ny for probably 2 good players a Center and another Pg . so This is a good Trade for New York if you Guys look at it. i mean who wouldnt want Billups on their team. if he wants out trade him to another for 2 good players.

Team presentation, the Fabulous season : 1991 – HONDA V12 LAWS

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

1991… The fabulous season ….

- HONDA Marlboro McLaren team retained their successful 1990 lineup of Senna and Gerhard Berger

- Williams re-signed their former driver Nigel Mansell on the promise that he would be the top driver in the team after several years as number two to Nelson Piquet at Williams and then Alain Prost at Ferrari. He was partnered by Riccardo Patrese, retained from 1990.

- Ferrari kept Alain Prost as lead driver and replaced the departed Mansell with Jean Alesi, a young driver who had impressed at Tyrrell.

- Benetton began the season with two experienced Brazilian drivers: Roberto Moreno and triple world champion Nelson Piquet. During the season, Moreno was replaced by German rookie Michael Schumacher.

- Former greats Lotus had had a torrid 1990 with a severe accident for Martin Donnelly, loss of title sponsorship from Camel and a management buyout. The new cars, white and British Racing Green after decades of yellow or black, were piloted by rookie drivers Mika Häkkinen and Julian Bailey, though Bailey was eventually replaced by Johnny Herbert. Originally, the team had appointed Donnelly as ‘number one driver’ (partnering Häkkinen and Bailey) as Martin was expected to come back racing by April 1991[1].

Three teams that started the 1990 season would not make the start of the 1991 season: EuroBrun had failed to complete the season. Onyx Grand Prix also pulled out during 1990, but went as far as designing a 1991 car before finally folding, while the absence of Life surprised no-one.

The Osella team was now Fondmetal, though driver Olivier Grouillard was retained along with the 1989 Osella car and most of the staff.

The only entirely new team for 1991 was Jordan Grand Prix, a successful team in International Formula 3000. Their drivers were Bertrand Gachot and Andrea de Cesaris, though Gachot’s incarceration for assault partway through the season would mean that Michael Schumacher, Alessandro Zanardi and Roberto Moreno also drove the car.

At the start of the season, pre-qualifying was needed for five teams: two cars of Jordan, Dallara and Lambo and single cars of Fondmetal and Coloni.

A change to the points system in 1991 saw the winning driver now awarded 10 points instead of 9 as previously. More significantly, points from all races would now count towards the championship, instead of only each driver’s best eleven results as previously.

Immigration Please help!?

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

My company (The Group) that I was working went into administration, and the branch was taken over by management buyout and changed name.

My 5 years work permit expires on 7.7.2010 and the company went into administration on 30.6.2010.

I have applied for Permanent Residency on 7.6.2010.

My question is will this jepodise my PR application, do I need to ask my management buyout employer to inform Home Office about this.

Your reply will be appreciated- if anyone in this cirmustances please asso share your view,

Many thanks

It looks from this that you applied for PR too late. It would appear that the validity of your visa ended 30 June with the demise of the old company and takeover by the new one. Therefore, you probably should have been out a week before you applied for PR. Also, you don’t give any info on your grounds for applying for PR. The end of your work permit – and the company which applied for it – is no grounds for PR, so how did you apply?

If you were rehired by the new company, they had to apply for a new work permit. If they didn’t, and you are working, it appears you are doing so illegally.

In short, it looks like you have a bunch of violations and big trouble here. If so, "get out of Dodge" most urgently. You need to return home in a hurry. And withdraw that PR application.
