if anyone is left alive after this event they will live for 153 day before god will obliterate the earth and the cosmos.

I'm prepared to lay extremely generous odds against this happening if anybody is interested.

It is a pretty extreme off-chance.

As to the Slane ticket, I probably do want it but don't know for 100% yet...

Dallas Mavericks Recording Setting ATS Streak!

Dallas Mavericks have cashed 15 straight games against the Vegas spread. Since at least 1995 that is the longest ATS winning streak in the NBA – no matter if you are talking regular season or playoffs. The odds of winning 15 straight against the spread are 32,768 to 1 against. Dallas has not lost a single game ATS since 4/06/2011. 13 in a row was the prior longest ATS streak - by the Sacramento Kings between 11/6/2000 and 12/08/2000.

yup, had to make my way back from the ifsc. i'm on the scooter so didn't bother me but the only bridge open was the toll bridge, and people still had to pay. on the southside, trying to get to the northside were tailbacks as far as the dart crossing (and i imagine in every single side street). i'd reckon they'll be waiting for hours.

Why? She left from Cork today

she is visiting the convention centre (WTF???) around 7pm, and every street and bridge was closed from 3.

in the street i work some guy had left his car parked, they towed it about 400 yards further down the road!!! lol at finding it later!!!!

[Iago]

tomorrow.

She's in the convention centre tonight, quays are closed until 20.30 apparently

Decent darts stream anyone please??

[thedini]

Darts finals on in a minute, one of the highlights of the sporting year.
I think Taylor to score more 180's than Lewis is overpriced at 5/6.

Darts stream.

[Percy007]

Lewis throwing great darts.

Got that horribly wrong Taylor didn't show up at all, small bet on Barnie in the next and over 7.5 180's

Bon Iver plays Dublin’s Grand Canal Theatre on October 20. Tickets go on sale on Friday morning at €34 a pop. Support from Kathleen Edwards. The new album “Bon Iver” is released on June 17 and it’s swell. Download the first track from the album “Calgary” here.

One of my very good friends is home for the weekend too, she's working in Madrid doing TEFL. What kinda info do you want? I'll probably see her tomorrow at some stage...

Just where she applied to? How she did x and y? Or do you want me to get her e-mail or whatever so you can put the two in touch?

That sounds great, those are the kind of things I'm looking for and maybe if she thought there were any Jobs where she is or if she is interested in answering a couple of questions it would be great.

Prostitute-filled sex party was reward for German insurance salesmen

A German insurance firm has admitted rewarding its 100 best salesmen with a prostitute-filled "sex party" in Budapest's most famous thermal baths.

Hamburg-Mannheimer International (HMI), now part of the huge Munich Re insurance conglomerate, rented out the historic Gellert Baths in the Hungarian capital and turned it into an "open-air brothel", where it let staff run riot.

At least 20 prostitutes were hired by HMI top brass for the so-called "incentive trip". According to those present, the women were colour-coded to indicate which men were allowed to have sex with them. Those wearing white ribbons were reserved for "the very best salespeople and executives", said one HMI employee.

After an investigation printed in the German newspaper Handelsblatt, Munich Re has admitted that the party – described in one German magazine as "Bunga-Bunga in Budapest" – did occur.

"It is true that in June 2007 an incentive trip took place in Budapest. Our research has discovered that during an evening event during this trip, around 20 prostitutes were present," said a spokesman for Ergo, a life insurance arm of Munich Re that took over HMI some time after the party took place.

The Handelsblatt newspaper has gathered sworn statements from a number of HMI employees who attended the party.

"At the entrance, I and other participants were searched, like at security controls at an airport," said one witness. The HMI boss told everyone it was "strictly forbidden" to take photos or video the event, he added.

According to a signed affidavit from another employee: "The ladies came up to us and showed us what they had. It was clear to everyone there that they were hookers."

"The women wore red and yellow ribbons," one guest told Handelsblatt. "Some were there just as hostesses; the others made clear with the colour of their ribbon that they weren't just there to chat."

Then there were women wearing white ribbons. They, allegedly, were reserved for the "best of the best" in the company.

Another guest said that beds had been set up around the baths where the salesmen could "do what they wanted". The women, he claimed, were then given an ink stamp on their forearms to show how popular they had been: some of the women ended up with more than a dozen stamps, it is alleged.

Astonishingly, the debauched trip was written up in the company newsletter, Profil, back in 2007. "There were things you couldn't believe," said the Profil report, according to Handelsblatt. "Or there were things that were so freaky, so unbelievable and indescribable that they shouldn't be allowed."

The incident was a "clear violation" of company policy, said Alexander Becker, a spokesman for the Ergo Versicherungsgruppe subsidiary. Those responsible for organising the event are no longer employed at Ergo, he said.

Munich Re, the world's biggest reinsurer, fully owns Düsseldorf-based Ergo, Germany's second-biggest primary insurer after Allianz SE. The Budapest party was hosted by an Ergo unit, then known as Hamburg-Mannheimer Versicherungs-AG.
