AFAIK,every born child should be registered withing the time frame from being born is mandatory to get birth certificate but here we have more corrupted government officials so we can pay some money as bribe and can register at any time when we want.Note: we can also take birth certificate for a person who doesn't even born in India. Cheesy
I am not deputing your claims as corruption is prevalent in India but from my experience dealing with people all around India what i found is that majority of the people from North of India does not go to hospitals when they are pregnant instead they deliver the child at home with the help of local nurse who does not have a degree from a medical school but who have the skills passed on through generation and hence they do not have a clear idea about the exact date of birth but having a different year of birth is fraudulent but it is happening because the authorities is also not having any idea about their real birth and they will accept what the parents claim.

Even i was shocked to hear this in the beginning but it is what it is and that is the fact.

This tells the complete story about Indian tour of New Zealand, Almost Grin we can call it anything; experiment, injuries in both teams or any lame excuse (From Indian perspective) but the facts are simple and clear.
The T20 was a clean white wash by India and New Zealand returned the favors and white washed the ODI tournament and i am not accepting the experimental route either. The meme perfectly summons the series till now  Cheesy.

It may be little on NZ side as pitch would be for fast bowlers and NZ  are now back again in good form. NZ may whitewash the test series too .
Earlier India used to struggle in green pitches but now it is a different situation altogether as the Indian fast bowlers are world class that could trouble any batting line up in green tracks, so you cannot underestimate the Indian team like that and if the batsman can perform in those situation they will win the Test series. I personally consider Virat Kohli to be a much better captain in the Test format than in the shorter formats.

other than the 3 judging panel what is the solution to rectify these problems as a win will change a fighters life and fortune so they need to sort this out soon.
There are many options thrown like open scoring with experienced fighters and having a 5 judging panel rather than having 3 judges, from my perspective i want to see the athletic commission to make sure the incompetent judges should not allowed to judge again as there were many shitty decisions in the past and the decisions from UFC 247 has brought back the topic once again because of the score card the judges scored for the entire fight card with many dubious decisions in many fights.

If you want to report illegal source of income you can contact Joint Commissioner of Income Tax or Additional Commissioner of Income Tax in the region where the source is located and you will be eligible to get a reward up to 1 crore if you are able to provide the correction information about illegal sources.


There is a mail ID if you want to send those

Since some people start to talk about Donate China over Corona Virus, while the fact is that China is the Second Rich Country in the world for that they just Need Prayers to overcome Coronavirus outbreak and treat well people I think in terms of the money they can Afford
It is not about undermining the economic situation of China, it is people sincerely wanting to help recover from the situation and nothing else. If China can overcome the situation and control the situation it is well and great but since it has become a global epidemic it is better that the entire world work together in bringing a cure to this situation rather than showing their prowess who is better than who.

No one can argue that he is not past his prime but tired and KO'ed at any moment? Come on now. Did you see how Reyes punches slowed down and was just swinging in the later rounds? Did you see how many times Jones just kept moving forward after getting hit?
No one would claim that Jon Jones is past his prime days, he got some clean shots against Dominick Reyes where some of the fighters could have gone out cold and he still maintained the pressure and moved forward and that is the only case i see him won the judges over in the fight.

Part of the judging criteria was cage control and I don't remember one criteria having more weight than the other.
Jon Jones controlled the center of the cage and the most confusing aspect is that there are two rules right now, the new rules are not followed by some of the athletic commission where they do not have a advantage in cage control and in Texas they followed the old rule.

Although scoring is done round by round in the UFC, Reyes really fell short in rounds four and five. They call them championship rounds for a reason.
Jon Jones completely dominated the last two rounds and it was clear that Dominick Reyes was tired but scoring is done every round and not just the championship rounds.

When all the emotions are gone, we should probably watch the fight again and without all the commentaries.
I watched the replay 2x (with commentaries) and round two, for me, was really won by Jones and the fourth and fifth.
I watched the fight a few times and i really do not see how Jon Jones won the first three rounds considering the amount of shots both landed and the only aspect i see him win is the cage control he had even after getting hit hard and the take down the had in the final two rounds he was not able to maintain that as Dominick Reyes was able to stand up and Jon Jones really struggled taking him down, 11 attempts and he was successful only twice shows the take down defense of Dominick Reyes.

As far as the judging goes in this fight card the judging was awful and even Joe Rogan called out the judges during the broadcast about the judges not even watching the fight which is really odd and how on earth they scored those rounds is mind boggling.

Jens Steyaert should be taken to court for justice or return people's money and investment. The internet needs to be aware of thieves and scammers like Jens Steyaert. For now all the community hopes for is karma gets Jens Steyaert back somehow. People like this should be locked up!
If you can find people who lost money through his scam, make a group and plan on filing a proper complaint with the authorities with sufficient proof, frauds like these are scott free and keep on coming back because people usually does not go after them and instead dream about Karma which is not going to happen, you need to act and get the justice even if it takes a long time.

Reyes was robbed obv!  Poor kid...  He worked so hard.
Indeed, Even DC and other UFC fighters thought Reyes should win. I don't really know what the judges saw on Jones' performance which make them decide in favor on him. Maybe the consistent pressure he gave (like what joe rogan said)? If that's the case then do you really believe it weighs greater than Reyes' tons of sharp punches he threw? You decide. But for me, nah I don't think so.
The judging was poor without a doubt and after the fight i really thought i lost my bet as Dominick Reyes had more significant strikes in the first three rounds than Jon Jones even though he was controlling the center of cage but in the last two rounds Jon Jones dominated the significant strikes and taken him down in the 4th and 5th round but he was not able to control Dominick Reyes on the ground either but the judges saw another fight and so is the reason Jon Jones retained the belt Cheesy. one judge (Joe Solis) scored the bout 4 to 1 to Jon Jones which is crazy.

Yes, They will made history today, Inshallah. Bangladesh have started well and they need to keep their wickets intact and runs will come automatically and will not be an issue.
I was expecting Bangladesh to create history today by winning a major ICC tournament but now Bangladesh is struggling as they already lost 6 wickets and the opener Parvez Hossain Emon who is injured is back to bat as the wickets started to fall and they still need 67 runs and India is bowling really well and props to the Indian young bowlers who put pressure on them and picked up wickets to put pressure back to Bangladesh.
I still hope Bangladesh to win the U19 World Cup as it will have a major impact on their morale in the future.

Yeah, something is obviously slowing it down, but has anyone noticed it seems to open better in different browsers? For instance, firefox is barely loading and giving me cloudflare errors frequently, whilst Chrome is loading, albeit slowly and I'm seemingly not getting the cloudflare page. I remember this happening previous times when the forum has been running slow as well.
I have the same error in chrome, after multiple refreshing i am getting connected if not showing the cloudflare error page.

That was a really close fight and Dominick Reyes took the fight to Jon Jones and i thought it is going to be an upset going to the judges to make the decision as i scored the first three rounds for Dominick Reyes but the fourth and fifth rounds were completely dominated by Jon Jones and the judges gave the decision to Jon Jones, really tough fight and i want to see a rematch, Jon Jones struggled to take Dominick Reyes down and it was an impressive fight.

Judging in this fight card was terrible as they were blunders in the fight card.
3372  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: February 08, 2020, 09:52:06 PM
My prediction for UFC 247

Jon Jones vs Dominick Reyes : Jon Jones and over 2.5 rounds
Valentina Shevchenko vs Katlyn Chookagian: Valentina Shevchenko
Derrick Lewis vs Ilir Latifi : Derrick Lewis

I am going for a parlay for these fights and even though the odds are not that great it is a fun fight and i am not expecting any surprises. The only doubt is the height difference of Derrick Lewis and Ilir Latifi and whether Derrick will struggle to land a punch because he will be able to avoid those heavy blows but i highly doubt Ilir Latifi could cover this much distance and land a knockout punch simply because of the size and height difference.

I agree, I think that Australia will be open to the idea of playing in Pakistan again and maybe even England but not sure about India. I remember watching Australia play in Pakistan and to be honest I do miss them days. I remember staying up to watch Mark Taylor make his 334 no and all the Pakistan people praying for him to get out. That was one of the best matches that I have seen played in Pakistan and hopefully one day we'll see the top players like Smith and Kohli playing there.
If the rest of the countries are willing to tour Pakistan then it would be great for Pakistan cricket and with the security they have given to Sri lanka and Bangladesh and with the PCL coming up and if they conduct successfully in Pakistan then the rest of the teams might tour Pakistan. The political problem with India and Pakistan is well known around the globe and hence i am not expecting India to tour Pakistan nor play them in a series other than ICC tournaments simply because of political reasons.

I do not get this point. When Indian team is so strong and they have beaten / can beat Pakistan easily, whats wrong in playing with them ?
India Play Pakistan, Beat them and dominate more. Isn't this make sense even politically ?  By not playing, they will gain nothing.
This is political reason and with the current Indian government who has a extreme ideology it is just a dream to see Pakistan and India playing. The fun aspect is that the only restriction is playing cricket between Pakistan but they are playing other sports without any issue.

If you had 1BTC to bet on each LFC match this season you probably would have won over 7BTC so far.
If i knew the outcome before hand i would wage a million dollars  Cheesy. Apart from the drawn match against Shrewsbury they literally won the match and i did not expect them to win some of the matches  Wink. How many BTCitcoin you won mate and since you are a die hard fan of Liverpool i am sure you made some good bets.

At 9:00, Jones team knows the strength of Reyes too including his counter punching. I'm quite confident now that Jones will try to drag this fight.
The difference here is that Jon Jones does not have a particular pattern and both these fighters know each other very well and how well they adapt in the fight makes the difference, Reyes have a good left hand and if you look at all his past fights he knock out his opponent when they launches them to attack he counter punches with a powerful left and i am sure Jon Jones will not launch at him and he will keep the kicking distance and i am not expecting this to be a boxing match but instead in the Kickboxing range.

I reckon that Conor should make him interested. Fight Justin Gaethje on lightweight or welterweight and then fight Jorge Masvidal on welterweight. A victory on Jorge would light his star brighter and cause Khabib to be very jealous and fight hehehhe.
Khabib Nurmagomedov rejected the Saudi offer of $100 million to rematch Conor McGregor and he said to use that for charity for a good cause rather than fighting an idiot who he dominated in every level, his mentality is different and he is clearly not after money and the UFC and Conor should impress him to see a worthy opponent in him before seeing a rematch.

^  Yup.  Jones could win at the fourth or fifth (most likely fifth or goes to a decision).  Still wanna see him get KO'd tho.  Grin
I am expecting a third or fourth round finish by Jon Jones because this will be the first time Dominick Reyes will be going past the third round and we are not seen his conditioning, so i am expecting Jon Jones to finish in the championship rounds.

^^ Why not?
His economy rate is under 6 so i would say he was good enough to bowl at-least 2 overs. there are always chances that he gets the beating but when every bowler in team leaking runs then there is no harm to try part-timer, that's the real reason of keeping 6th bowling option in playing XI for starter.
Kedar Jadhav will be effective in spin friendly wickets and standard stadium, if you look at the stadium and ground size in New Zealand it is really small and a part time spinner like Kedar Jadhav could be smashed all over the park and the pitch is not aiding any bowlers. It might be a different scenario in Australia as the ground is standard enough and if you are not meddling the ball properly you will be caught in the deep and may be that is the reason he is not given an opportunity till now in the series.

Yes it seems that people now is choosing bitcoin as an alternative storage for their assets incase some global crisis might happen like wars, deadly diseases or a financial crisis.
This is a new market and with time we are seeing new investors coming into the market and the major difference will happen when institutional investors will start investing in the market and for a huge rally we need these huge institutional investors but if there is a global crisis then all the markets will be affected, but if there is a economical meltdown then people might invest in BTCitcoin and gold but we are yet to see the evidence whether these investors will flock into the BTCitcoin market when there is a global crisis.

~snip
Money laundering from hacked accounts is the most of scam happens on localbitcoins,so you will actually receive money to your bank account and you will release bitcoins then everything will go normal for a week or so then you will get a call from bank or police about enquiring who send money to your account,return it or go to jail. Undecided
When you are dealing with P2P trading then the risk of getting the funds from hacked account is highly likely and there is nothing you cannot do about that, fortunately i only got one transaction in years and that too for a small amount in my bank account and once i got a query from the bank authorities i cleared it with them that it was done through P2P transaction and since there was a lot of transaction during that period it was difficult to identify my trade in the exchange, but somehow sorted with the bank authorities. But i was curious about the issue with iwassacmmed and how he got scammed.
3379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: February 07, 2020, 01:14:05 PM
I agree. I am just saying that it will be too much to ask for 28,000 people to create a cricket team, which can take on a country such as India (population of close to 1.4 billion).
Having a huge population is not a benchmark to produce best players, take a look at Jamaica who have a population of around 3 million and still they are producing world class athletes who wins gold at the Olympics and with the billion population everyone knows how many we win  Cheesy. If we take Football Croatia with a population of just 4 million competed in the world cup final and Uruguay when they won the World cup just had a population of 1.7 million but India with a billion population is yet to play a world cup. It all depends upon the interest level of a certain sport in every country that will help them to produce world class talents and population is not a benchmark Wink.

I can only imagine the smile on the casino owners face that day (unless of course they came out net positive, then OUCH!)
Are there any similar high rollers still going to this day?
Sure everyone was having a good time during those time, not sure how the wagging goes but still we have new competition to make things interesting.

Let's not compare the prices but just stick to the BTC=BTC comparison. I'm wondering how those guys are doing right now.  Roll Eyes
I knew a few high rollers and they lost over 400BTC during that period and they had a good stash because they mined when it was easier to mine during the early days. Everyone knew the risk and it was fun for them and majority cashed out when the price went to the moon during the last rally.
