Dodgy element went south to Blessington during boom.

They don't but i'd have thought, in the short-term at least the PK infrastructure will continue to operate from Dublin.

PS says, "It's too early to begin disclosing many details about our strategic plans for Full Tilt, but our first order of business is to re-open the site, pay back all of the players and begin rebuilding Full Tilt's reputation. Going forward, we will operate Full Tilt as a separate brand, giving players another leading and trusted platform to enjoy the game."

Operating a dual platform strategy it may be in their interests to have PS and FT continue to compete with each other which could be aided by keeping FT operating from Dublin.

Hopefully this news is the start of the online poker ship beginning to rite itself - though the monopolistic strength now enjoyed by PS is surely worrying.

PokerStars plans to relaunch the Full Tilt Poker website and maintain the separate brand, the company announced today.

It will hire an independent management team to run the poker room, which will maintain its base in Dublin.

It will, however, run the company under an Isle of Man license, rather than in Alderney, Full Tilt’s original jurisdiction. The AGCC revoked its license following a review of the Full Tilt situation after Black Friday.

In the press release, Mark Scheinberg, Chairman of the Board at PokerStars and Son of PokerStars founder Isai Scheinberg, touted the regulatory measures to which the company adheres, stating “the prompt repayment of our former US customers in as quick a time frame as possible demonstrated our industry-leading commitment to the segregation of customer funds.”

The Isle of Man is one of the few jurisdictions which enforces correct ring-fencing of player funds, and PokerStars has spoken before about its adoption of trust funds to protect players.

“We continue to encourage jurisdictions all over the world to introduce sensible online poker regulation,” adds Scheinberg.

Thought there might be a few hot wimmins in the gymnastics, but they all seem to be 13 years old, biggest disappointment of the games thus far imo.

The minimum age is 16.

I'm not sure if it's relevant but you can buy tickets for their Supercup encounter at the end of next month on their site for €70 odd.

Its gonna be basically the same thing with limited features so really depending on what exactly youll need it for. Best job is download it and install it as its freeware you have lost nothing, if its not what you need you can look into getting MS office

Cooking 8 sausages in a pan is a bit tricky. Also, just realised it's Ian Thorpe that has been on BBC all the time before the swimming, chap is very effeminate. Sausages must have triggered the thought

Phelps spitting on the ground/into the pool (not sure which) before the race started. Dirty bastard.

Phelps messed up the last stroke there it seemed

Tighter than a nun's knickers.

Fantastic reaction from the Saffa.

[The C Kid]

Thought Phelps had held on and was composing a "big feet, big arms, big chest but most importantly the big heart" post.

Fuck my life.

On southland season 3 now thought season 2 improved on season 1 and 3 is brilliant after 4 episodes.

Ive backed this Yi Shiwen 11/10 not to break the WR in the 200M IM swimming. With all the heat on her with the suspicious times shes doing she might just reign it in to make it more believeable!.

His fly technique is very odd he cuts his hands into the water when they are at right angles so they work like brakes for a fraction of a second. Its a crazy thing to say but if he learned to do it right he might shave a good bit off!

How many moves have people here have?

I have had 17 moves in my lifetime. 8 by the time I was eight years old.
Especially not good for kids.

I cant see a single reported post from that thread and as a result wasnt aware of it.

EDIT - Ive removed the thread and PMed them, it can be restored if and when they intend to come back and answer queries raised

[Lord Sir Banter]

they aren't accessing your email, they are spoffing your address.

Must be the 3rd time I have logged into my yahoo mail account to see about 50-250 bounced back failed delivery spam emails, and once or twice on my gmail but not for a while now.

I've changed password each time and run virus scans, all clear.
Why the fuck do some cunts from various shit holes around the world want to access my email and fire off a few spam mails that just get returned anyhow.

Any how the fuck.

Makes more sense. Nowt I can do about that? They are sending to people on my contact list though?

Just bumping this.
If they are spoofing the address, how come they are sending to my contact list?

[rounders123]

Im mainly going against everything i hear as usual.

Snap. Really need to pull the trigger on this but am still pretty clueless. Want something that is reliable and doesn't overheat or act the cunt like the Toshiba I once had.

Was also considering Dell as got one before for someone else and it is very reliable (heats up a bit but I guess most laptops are like this).

Since posting here am more open to that Lenovo brand or whatever it is called, but clueless beyond that.

Probably the last place I would go is a brick and mortor place like P.C World but maybe I am wrong about that.

BTW, if you are going via dell, I will link you to discounts that run continually for laptops/dell stuff, just requires a bit of googling to knock 12% or so off the final price.

Might be worth checking out Argos as well. Not that much choice at the sub €450 level though.
