Well done Irish Times for at least pointing it out

It's a slow news day, so we're reduced to this: US rapper Kanye West announced at a concert last night that he and his girlfriend Kim Kardashian are expecting their first child.

[Denny Crane]

In work today, as I was on Friday - at least there was bollox all traffic on the roads this morning, hardly any other poor smucks working today obviously! I raise a mug of Lemsip to all other IPBers working for the man on this NYE.

Anyone going to the gig in College Green later? Half thinking of it, I reckon the €20 tickets will keep the scummers away, if the gig were free I'd need to be paid to go, would be worse than Eminem crowd!

GF got tickets to it. Might end up doing something else though. NYE is just grim imo.

Agree with Conor here, I'd pack in watching racing if you don't enjoy listening to Nick Luck. By far and away the nut commentator/analyst

It's not really a commercial as such, it won't be on TV or on cinema screens (because political advertising is banned on those media).

It'll just happily reside in a corner of youtube with all the other mentallist videos.

[Denny Crane]

How does Rishi Persad have a job though?

[The Situation]

Marsden is more of a Thommo man. Say no more, WOOOSSSHH!!!

[ArmaniJeans]

Persad should have been drummed out of racing for his 'got to hurry you there as we are running out of time Sir Henry' during the interview with the visibly wilting trainer after Frankels last race.
As I said at the time the next program was Final Score, it matters not a jot whether that starts at 4.30 or 4.33.

The fact C4 saw enough there to actually bring him over from the BBC is discouraging.

C'mon, nothing says proper racing (flat) like a Persad interview with AOB. 'Listen Rishi....'

'diversity'

UK media are mad for it, hence you get amputee presenters scaring the shit out of kids on cbeebies.

Cracking Darts final in prospect.

MVG has a broken bone in one foot, and an achilles strain in the other. (+ his lifetime fight against goldfish mouth).

Sir Philip meanwhile has severe pneumania and also complaining about a sore arm from over-exubirant Barney handshaking.


Truly modern day gladiators.

**********

Also (from boards) some snippets from a Barney interview with a Dutch journalist this morning.

Barney - "I was in a sportsmanlike manner and tried to congratulate him on stage and when he pushed me away."

Barney - "I understood nothing of it and wanted to hug him. He said F*** Off and I didnt understand. What inspires the man to push me away."

Barney "I gave him a nudge in his back and then we walked down the stage there are still harsh words back stage"

Barney "We are disassembled and I'm through security away to a car. I do not understand still."

Barney - " I wanted to congratulate him once sporty and then this, incredible. I'm sick of it, I dont understand his reaction at all."

Barney - " I have not talked to him! I just received a text message from Phil. He apologizes for his improper behavior."

Barney - "I do not know if I'm going to respond. The emotions are running high. Of course I hope Michael wins final."

Barney - "Resentment from me to Phil? I hope Michael wins."


Also story going around that there was a problem between the families during one of the intervals which is why Sylvia was standing by a wall rather than in the family area.

[Jaysoose]

Phil is certainly doing wonders for the image of "man-Flu"..and jesus christ he is a horrible man to watch and the fawning by the sky lads last night was atrocious.

MVG will muller him.

one of the great tragedies of modern medicine is that it takes longer for the old catholic regime to die out. In 20 years time there wont be anymore of this bullshit

Seemed to plenty of teenagers/early twenties at the last pro-life demo in November.
I think the old ireland/catholic church thing will only change at an incredibly slow pace, possibly only a percetage or two a generation.

Other than abortion & euthanasia, what influence has the church on modern medicine?
(Genuine question btw)

Yeah its ok, we have Ted Walsh

Strewelpeter will thank this post, and possibly mention how deodorant is the biggest con since shower gel.

Watching Christopher Hitchens clips on Youtube. I'm deeply afraid that he might be right.

[Sirtoyou]

New years resolutions for degens.

http://www.bettingexpert.com/blog/10-new-years-resolutions

1- I will not chase my losses
The biggest failing of many punters, the hotted up feeling when a bet goes wrong and the brain immediately triggers a "get back in front at all costs" signal. Even the most successful players are vulnerable to this and avoiding the chase syndrome is vital to become a long term winner.

2- I will develop a staking plan
Have a maximum stake when confidence is highest. Bet the most when the value is maximised and the discrepancy between your idea of the "real" price and the price available is widest. Don't stake according to emotion or how you are faring on the day, or if you have been winning, or if you have just been paid!

3- I will have a separate betting "tank"
Keep real life and betting totally separate. A paying the bills bank account and a solely for betting account. This is a great way of keeping track of how you are actually doing betting wise, and also means that a bad run doesn't mean the electricity is cut off!

4- I will find an area of expertise and bet only on that
Specialise, Specialise, Specialise is the best three words of advice when it comes to betting successfully. Find an area where you concentrate and become better than the odds-compilers at it.

The more "niche" the better, as prices on events like Premier League matches are well established and more or less right week in week out. Perhaps concentrate on novice chasers only, or non-league football or Brazilian basketball. Bury yourself in this area and forget about playing on anything else...

5- I will end all "interest" bets for fun
The live match on the TV, a spread bet on the cricket, a punt on the live horses. So many punters betting habits are dictated to an "interest" in live sports they watch from the armchair for recreation. Usually these are a bookmakers dream, with high margins and the prices very much in their favour long term.

Look at all the adverts that litter this televised sport. 90% are from bookmakers offering "in-play" prices about the next scorers, or correct scores etc etc. They aren't offering these bargains for charity or the good of their health; don't be a bookies dream!

6- I will keep a record of profit and loss every month
Forget about the daily ups and downs but do analyse every month to see what bets have been the most or least successful and try to cut your cloth accordingly in the longer term.

7- I will open accounts with every betting company and take advantage of all free bets
It is essential that every punter has access to the best prices, and these days the betting market has become extremely competitive and every firm is anxious to get new customers..(although once you have showed yourself to not be a clueless mug this process becomes rather more complex!).

There is a huge range of free bets out there, designed to attract loyal non-price sensitive players, but the astute punter can take advantage of this and profit from them. It is also worth getting every auntie, neighbour or colleague to open these accounts (be prepared to be factored to death when you start winning, so some back up accounts are always essential).

8- I will price up every event before looking at the "exchange price"
Remain clear headed and form your own prices before being influenced by what the exchange tells you. With the entire betting industry dictated to now by how the Betfair market shapes up, it is essential to maintain an aloof, independent view of "real prices" before seeing how the perfect market views a likely outcome.

In "niche" markets where liquidity is low i.e greyhound races or lower league football, the creation of a tissue based on your own expertise is the only way to find the required "edge".

9- I will never trumpet my victories or moan about my losses
When you are flying don't boast or trumpet the good news and by the same token don't get distraught and in a negative mindset when a poor spell comes along. Remain calm, level headed and take a long run perspective on the daily grind of punting professionally.

10- I will always bet within my means and never bet more than I can afford to lose
Staying in a comfort zone may be dull, but it is a far better way of playing rather than putting your neck on the line every day. A well planned staking plan and strategy is worth sticking to and will ride out the bumps in the road that unseat so many players in their battle for profitability.

[TheHaHaWall]

Paddys

I put some funds on paddys for the double odds special they had last few days, binked a few now have nice amount of money on there,
I go to withdraw and it wont let me put in back on my Mastercard, they said it a Mastercard thing, fair enough.

I ask my options he says Bank transfer, cheque, are best options.
I out of the country for a few months so I say bank transfer, he says you need to send bank statement, ID etc. I tell him I cant do that at the moment ill try something different.

Paypal? no I cant because I had to deposit with them 1st to be able to withdraw. ok grand

Can I transfer via Paddypowerpoker to a friends account (long shot but I thought id try)? he leaves me for a while tells me it looks ok hes been onto gaming and transfers me over there for a chat (I was a bit surprised this got the ok as I cant remember last time I played there 5years+ and way before the allowed player to player), grand I was gonna send the loot to my Dads account, he tells me I need to send it ID etc etc.

Started to get a little annoyed now id been on for 20/30 mins at this stage, I said ok ok just send me a cheque obv last resort as I wont get the money for ages it will be sent to Dublin im in Spain for a few months more. Ok just send us some ID etc etc etc.

So Im on for half hour I told him at the start after option 1, I couldnt send all the details right now. Yet every option needs ID sent.

Obv Ill have to get stuff scanned and what not its no prob will just take a few days, but that was a painful half hour

[Wombatman]

Stem cell research? Contraception methods? Latter has a pretty big effect on developing countries both in family size and STD infections.

Must be against IVF also as they state "Only a man and a woman can create new life" and not a bunch of lab techs.

Wonder if they would allow men and women who can't have kids to marry?

Logic suggests they take a dim view of loan parent families, cohabiting parents and second marriages.

Cnuts. Must be funded in some way by the church.

You are supporting this shit if you still get married in church, christen or confirm your kids, send them to schools with a strong catholic ethos, or go to fucking mid-night mass at Crimbo coz it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside and more importantly keeps your Mammy happy

[The Situation]

One thing I'm not looking forward to for the next ~ month is the swarm of fat messes that'll populate the gym until the carbs find them again in Feb and they gradually fall by the wayside.
