Funny, I watched it fully expecting it to be a racist thing, was ready to cringe at it.

Was just two women fighting over a man, both of them scummers if your wan's tale of a broken jaw is to be believed.

It's not when you have a broken jaw or even a fractured or dislocated jaw your jaw needs to be wired shut. You need a feeding tube down your nose which you swallow down continuously like drinking water. It then needs to be flushed regularly and listened with scope to make sure it doesn't loop up your gullet. Sometimes they allow the tube in the mouth with a flush syringe. But her jaw would be wired shut.

She isn't a battered woman. Not in my opinion. I could be doing her an injustice. Apologies to her if so.

It's slightly frustrating knowing he'll survive this.

We have his National Security advisor being fired for lying, being a foreign agent and potentially compromised by Russia
We have the White House ignoring their AG about the above
We have her fired the day she tells the White House they can now see the evidence
We have the CIA, FBI and NSA all saying Russia were involved in the election
We have the former head of the FBI saying there are 10 month old investigations in to the Trump campaign and Russia
We have clear business ties with persons of interest and Trump going back decades
We have FISA warrants served, which require probable cause to be shown
We have a former campaign manager with an arrest warrant in Ukraine
We have the White House trying to get Nunes to down play this and having to recuse himself
We have Trump trying to say Obama did a wiretap
We have Sessions having to recuse himself for lying over Russia
We have Kushner omitting details from his security clearance form about meetings with Russians
We have the White House telling senior FBI officials to tell the media theres nothing there
We have at least one, most likely multiple grand juries assembled
We have the former DNI refusing to comment on evidence he's seen on associations between Trump businesses and Russia
We have Senators saying they have seen classified evidence of collusion
We have Trump firing the head of the FBI as he closes in, so he can appoint a stooge
We have surrogates on TV saying the investigation should be put to bed now
We have the Senate Intelligence Committee asking the Financial Crimes unit of the Treasury Department for everything they have on Trumps and associated businesses
We have a White House that spends millions on flying to Florida calling the investigations a sham and waste of tax dollars, whilst also rejecting a special prosecutor or release tax returns which could help clear him

My girlfriend asked the drink store in Stoneybatter did he stock Hophouse 13, she got a 5 minute rant in return.

Theres only a very narrow sub section of people this will apply to, but has anyone noticed the similarities between David Sklansky and Mark Rippetoe? They both have exactly the same condescending attitude.

[V for Vendetta]

Great to see the minister for social protection bringing in a 12 month notice period for the winding up of DB schemes. If only he'd make it retrospective to various companies which did the state some service and then reneged on their commitments to their employees. CRC, Rehab etc. I wonder how it will work out for the likes of the Irish Greyhound board and other busto semi state organisations who can't afford to meet their commitments.

Meanwhile the private sector schemes that arent already gone will be trying to get out the gap before the law changes.

lol it's condescending absolutely but also a little sad to be that narrowly focussed. Rippetoe isn't exactly a poster child for healthy living either when you see him. He's definitely not got everything right...

CL semi delivering so far.

Staying at 2-0 up to half time would set it up beautifully.

Something about semi-finals (in all sports). One of them is invariably the best match of the tournament and what you would hope the final would be. Clermont-Leinster in the rugby being another example.

Basically that its a fake craft beer, they just repackaged some other beer they used to have. I think its a small step above Heineken/Carlsburg etc

[Raoul Duke III]

Ronaldo finally sighted for the first time in the match. Rolling around faking injury but still a lot more than he had done for the first 32 mins.

Rehab however is not doing so well...they sold their hq last year to meet funding.

Its a "craft" beer made by Diageo which kind of defeats the purpose as some people see it.

Hophouse 13 is piss would rather a Heineken any time.
There's a lot of fake craft or piss poor me too bad craft out there,superficially in a lot of Irish supermarkets now it looks like there is a lot of choice but you still have to do a lot of digging to get the good stuff

MetalMan is one of the nicest readily available craft beers on tap.There isn't much around Kildare but Harte's in Kildare town has it on tap and Lock 13 in Sallins have a decent selection too.

Do you have a reference or citation for that? I'd imagine that its difficult to taste the difference between two beers made in the same way with the same ingredients, but the difference between a real IPA and something like hophouse 13 is huge, they taste completely different - like mixing up lemonade and apple juice, it would be impossible to confuse them

Anyone that takes a look at Twitch every couple of months, tonight is a good one.

Jason Mercier streaming the $25k SCOOP with JCarver, and also playing the $2100 Razz. At a pretty sick table as you'd expect with Jungleman, Jason Koon, Scott Siever and a couple of online beasts that shipped the Sunday Million amongst others.

I'd generally assume RD3 and to a slightly lesser extent SP, are just joshing when they post on soccerball. If I ever mention soccer, please ignore it. I find paint drying, or grass growing, in real time, more enjoyable and interesting.

Playing England in the QF

The way they celebrated after the game was not a pleasing sight after such a beating from a well organised and focued German team. They got lucky goal difference didnt count or they would have finished stone last.
Lets hope this was a good wake up call and the game against the English ends better.

http://time.com/money/3089229/beer-brands-label-marketing/

While the experiments conducted were limited, the results show that when labels are removed from beer bottles, drinkers can't tell different brands apart—sometimes even when one of those brands is the taster's go-to drink of choice.
In the paper, the researchers first point to a classic 1964 study, in which a few hundred volunteer beer testers (probably wasn't too hard to find folks willing to participate) were sent five different kinds of popular lager brands, each with noticeable taste differences according to the experts. But people who rated their preferred beer brands higher when the labels were on bottles "showed virtually no preferences for certain beers over others" when the labels were removed during tastings:

The experiments involved a series of "triangle tests," in which drinkers were given a trio of beers to taste, two of which were the same beer. Tasters were asked to name the "singleton" of the bunch, and generally speaking, they could not do so with any reliable degree of accuracy:
In two of three tastings, participants are no better than random at telling the lagers apart, and in the third tasting, they are only marginally better than random.

All that said, we must point out the study's shortcomings. The beer tastings were very limited in scope. It's not like tasters were asked to compare Bud Light and a hoppy craft IPA, and then failed to tell the difference.

And they both probably equally out of touch with the latest in both fields.

I spend a lot of time on fitness than poker these days. So in a better position to critise Rippetoe. Some of his stuff is highly opinionated, but a lot of it is plain wrong.

To be fair they were comparing 3 similar european largers. Not completely different beers.
The taste range in beer is much broader than wine.
I doubt anyone could fail to distinguish a Stout, an IPA and a Lager. (even blindfolded)

Of course, that's not really the point though. That's like seeing if people can tell the difference between a dessert wine and a red wine.

Maybe I misunderstood, but that's exactly what I thought HJs point was.
That nobody would confuse Hophouse, a amber lager with an IPA.
