      Yeah I enjoyed it. It's much of the same as the second one, but engaging nonetheless. The online MP is pretty good as well.

      Probably about 20/25 hours of gameplay in it if you go for 100% sync in all the missions.

          Forget KevIrl launching daily raids on CountToAMillion, or Lloyd regularly starting 'stick it up your gash admins' threads in the mod forums. Forget all that, Bookclub is the real reason we had to leave.
          But was more than trumped by Icarus' incredibly bent Chess ladder load of bollocks.

          What a fuckin load of nonsense that was

            and if the router is set to WEP just post your creditcard details on your front door.
            Is that how you crash a wedding? yes it is, Bionic Barry, yes it is.

              if you have a device connected to the router type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar and then choose wireless in the drop down menu on the left, WEP key will be in there.

                Is the wireless connected to a computer

                ?

                  Do you have a computer connected directly to the eircom router? you can go onto the router homepage via 192.168.1.254 (more than likely) and go into the wireless page, and set your own password.

                  And turn the security onto WPA.

                    He was heads up with his bosses boss, had trip Aces, boss shoved all in, now Tonys boss shook his head to fold - tony obliged. Came second . . . He told me this story about 3 years ago. Sickens me yet i admire him, still dont think i could do it.
                    nooooooooooooooooooo!

                    I hope his bonus that year was a decent multiple of the kitty

                          eircom could be 192.168.1.254 then


                          oh and as above, change from WEP to WPA

                              Ah right. I suppose its just a case of seeing the prices and going...'lol my mate bought a similar house for more than that 10 years ago....we've got enough for a 10% deposit and fittings......rent is dead money.....buy buy buy'.

                                open up a command prompt (cmd.exe)

                                type ipconfig

                                It will tell you your IP address and your default gateway.

                                type the default gateway address into your browser, that should bring you to the eircom config page.

                                  Chess ladder, lol. I'd forgotten about that.

                                  Some good stuff out of you on the BDO thread yesterday - I particularly liked 'Apart from Phil taylor and Raymond Barneveld and Eric Bristow, Adams is the most decorated player in history. Probably a better player than anyone bar taylor on his day and im sure Taylor wouldnt fancy playing Wolfie either'.

                                  And then later on telling mdwexford he was bringing down the tone of the forum

                                  WP.

                                        It's the principle. He'd still get a bonus, and the chance to fistpump in the guys face.

                                                the main thing is to give them a reasonable diet (good luck trying to keep them sweet-free ) and make sure they get loads of exercise
                                                Myself and the other half were in Indie Spice in Swords for a meal at the weekend and there was a family across from us, i would say the kids were about 10 and 12 and both obese.
                                                Both the parents were even bigger and were happy shoveling vindaloo, korma, tandori whatever else they could find into their kids, polished off with buckets of Coke. I just found the whole thing like watching pigs eating from a trough, i don't blame the kids at all i blame the parents.

                                                BTW lovely food in that place

                                                    it could be, but this is the oppertunity to turn off WEP and use something actually secure like WPA.

                                                        Yeah I know WEP is crap. Mine is set WPA.

                                                        Just I think the WEP key is printed on the router.

                                                                  UEFA unveil new financial rules

                                                                  Clubs could be banned from European competition from the 2014/15 season onwards if they do not comply with new financial rules.

                                                                  The rules state clubs must break even over a three-year period.

                                                                  Club owners will be allowed to put in up to €15million a year but only as equity, not a loan. This figure will then drop to €10million annually.

                                                                  Clubs will be able to spend as much as they want on stadiums, training facilities and youth football.

                                                                  UEFA will have a range of sanctions from warnings to a transfer ban to exclusion from European tournaments.

                                                                  Across Europe, total club income in 2009 rose 4.8% to €11.7billion, but expenditure was a 9.3% increase to €12.9billion, making a €1.2billion deficit.

                                                                  Most of the expenditure goes on player wages and one in three European clubs spent 70% or more of their income on salaries.

                                                                  56% of European clubs ended 2009 in the red.

                                                                  One in four clubs spent €6 for every €5 they earned.

                                                                  A drop in transfer activity has reduced income by 5% to clubs in Scotland, France, Portugal and Holland.

                                                                  English top-flight clubs are comfortably the richest in Europe with average revenue of €122million - five times higher than Holland and Russia.

                                                                  Germany is second with average earnings of €86million.

                                                                  Scottish top-flight clubs' average revenue in 2009 was €16m, the League of Ireland €1.3m, Northern Ireland 0.7m and Wales 0.3m .

                                                                  Clubs will be monitored if there are warning signs such as: recording a loss in any year; spending more than 70% of revenue on wages; having overdue football-related payments or tax debts; high level of debts.

                                                                  As with a tax declaration, the onus is on the clubs to provide the correct information to UEFA and they will be subject to spot-checks and face sanctions if they do not do so.

                                                                  National associations will initially grant the licences but UEFA will have spot-checks to make sure that the rules are being applied correctly.

Which looks better, that you're willing to kowtow to an ego, or that you're hungry enough and assured of your own abilities to make the difficult call when it needs to be made?

It essentially just follows the exact storyline from the english version word for word with american actors. Im not sure if it will be a big hit here but its nowhere near as good as the english version. Frank Gallagher the yank is about the worst transfer of a character of all time.

Which looks better, that you're willing to kowtow to an ego, or that you're hungry enough and assured of your own abilities to make the difficult call when it needs to be made?

But essentially you feed in a tonne of data and the neural network software will find some patterns in it that wouldn't necessarily be obvious from something like a regression.
                                                                                            That's actually kind of an interesting concept. If you were to create a neural network where each node was a dog, and then create relationships between each dog based on the results of every dog's race versus every other dog, then you could create a network that could take an educated guess at the result of any race of 6 dogs.

                                                                                            I guess the worry would be the size of the data. NNs work best when the number of nodes are small but there is a lot of relationships between each node. There are a lot of racing dogs out there, and only 6 dogs per race. How many times would an average dog race in its lifetime, I wonder? It would certainly be worth trying, anyway.

He is not a miracle worker they say but the general consensus from them was that the away day supporters in the club were genuinely worried about relegation due to Hodgsons small club mentality. They are still gonna struggle for a top 10 finish and I don't think Europe is realistic thinking from the manager.

                                                                                                  We took in the Blackburn game on the Saturday. Having never been there before I found the stadium easily accessable and quite big, the pitch itself was very narrow.

I clearly heard El Hadj Diouf tell Mackie get up you diving cunt and he kept hurling insults at him, Mackie's leg was broken in 2 places. Whos the cunt now El Hadj??
