I'm very concerned for Newcastle that with all the money they have at their disposal, they may not be able to still attract quality players that are still in their prime to play during the transfer window, considering their position still at the table and the high chancea of relegation. Even if players with big names come to the club, i see a situation where those players are the the ones who have played passed their best, won cups with some other teams and are just coming for the fat Cheque.

For me it's a matter of the intention you have in mind and what you stand to gain. If it's in your intention to meet new people and make new friends and increase your social life while you gamble, then a physical casino is the option for that, but if you care little for the social life and have analysed that you stand nothing to gain from  mingling, you can solely gamble online. There are many reasons that can influence the decision to either play online or in physical casinos, this is just one.

6. Don't Smoke

Don't smoke what please? Cigarettes or Marijuana?
And why is there no "Don't drink alcohol" on the list?

Good Health to me is much more than the physical to me, it also entails maintaining a balanced physical and mental state. Some people smoke, some drink to calm themselves from the rigours of their day, ease stress and to achieve balance in their mental state. Know what works for you and stick to it.

You must learn to be alive while you are living and not let the fear of death scare you from living, that is why moderation is preached.

AJ cannot beat Usyk with his technique (or the southpaw argument).

I think AJ has to improve also on his mental health and morale in addition to technique before the rematch, if he is going to stand a chance to beat Usyk. At the moment, due to the two successive losses he has had with Ruiz and Usyk, plus the very sloppy and timid display from the last fight, a lot of persons including his promoter Eddie Hearn have lost hope in him.

https://www.sportsvillagesquare.com/2021/10/15/promoter-hearn-loses-hope-on-anthony-joshuatipped-to-lose-again-to-usyk/

Most importantly i hope he hasn't lost hope on himself.

Struggles tailor real men (and women)...
True, and also correct that most successful people today have had their fair share of hardship at some point in their lives, some situations more serious than others.. A popular saying is what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, in the case of Victor, all the difficult situations he has said he passed through and the experiences he has had, are all what has turned him into the man he is today.

I think it's time for Solskjaer to be replaced.

It's what most Manchester United supporters have been screaming. The most terrible defending i've seen today from Manchester United, I've always said with Manchester United, there's a potential for them to score goals, but no assurance to defend against goals. Imagine supporters of Manchester United having gotten excited at the prospect of winning the title this season with addition of CR7 to the team, only to be getting mediocre performances, they need to be apologized to lol.
3488  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: October 16, 2021, 03:43:39 PM
A convincing and brilliant performance win by Liverpool with Salah scoring a beautiful goal as usual with his sparkling display week in week out, with Firminho also scoring a hatrick equally earning him player of the match Liverpool remain unstoppable and unbeaten now in EPL.

I've never doubted Liverpool's prowess in front of goal, i've always seem them as one of the contenders for the title this season again, and they always show their ability with every passing game and prove me right. Mo' Salah is an exceptional footballer, the Ronaldo and Messi type i must say.

Manchester United on the other hand is just being a bunch of disappointment for every supporter of the club, very quality players, but poor team performance, it will be a miracle if they can win Leicester

Alcohol suppresses the release of glutamate and binds to GABA receptors inhibiting neuronal signaling.  

Sounding like a Biochemist, very correct. When consumed in excess and frequently, it can also affect the production of ATP in the body (that is reduced energy).

This is strange because I get to see Muslims who drink beverages with alcohol in them but they do not drink it in public places.
True, in a state in my country where Sharia law is still practiced, not like you are permitted, but you can go buy an alcoholic drink, but you can not consume it in public places only in your house, at your privacy.

Just like every other religion, there are those who fully practice all the doctrines, there are those that select which to follow, so i find it normal.

1; DO your research properly for any crypto you want to invest in.


How can one be certain that he or she has properly done their research on a crypto they want to invest in?  Sometimes if you really plan on HODLing for a long period, i think its best you pitch your investment under already existing strong projects that are popular among majority of investors, stack investments up and keep HODLing.

3493  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you quit Bitcoin if a shitcoin like Ethereum surpassed it? on: October 14, 2021, 08:53:45 PM
However, if we think of altcoins like ethereum replacing bitcoin, i think the rate would be 5/10 because their own prices are very much apart. But if its really bound to happen in the future, then we can do nothing about it. I will still prioritize bitcoin because i know how promising it is ...

If ever this near impossible situation occurs, It will be completely unwise and a show of no professionalism to just dump/quit all bitcoins that I have been gathering and keeping for a long time just like that especially when i know that the crypto market is unpredictable and unstable. As long as volatility remains, an experienced crypto user knows that prices always fluctuate and to just follow after numbers without proper analysis is very unsafe for their portfolio.
3494  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Musk the boss behind SHIB? on: October 13, 2021, 02:48:21 PM
You can say Elon's cryptic tweet had an influence on SHIB, but i doubt that he is the boss behind it. A friend told me about SHIB before the pump, but i ignored it so i didn't profit from the pump. There's was a dip after the pump and i jumped on it hoping it pumps again and breaks the resistance it met during the last pump. Since SHIB has already the attention of Elon, another cryptic or plain tweet about SHIB may cause another pump, it's something you may like to HODL for a while with close observation.

But to finally establish itself with the regulators, change the legislation, which is poorly developed in the field of cryptocurrencies, and also interest the majority of the population in bitcoin, it takes time.
Yes, a lot of time indeed. There are still many major issues and challenges hindering global adoption of cryptocurrency. The percentage of persons aware and conversant with cryptocurrency cannot even equate the percentage that are unaware. For the time factor, cryptocurrency has just been in existence from 2009, from then till the present (2021) is roughly just 12 years, that's too small a time frame for cryptocurrency to be able to push out the traditional fiat that has been in existence for a much longer period. IMHO, anyone who believes that cryptocurrency will quickly soon completely replace the traditional fiat is just being delusional and unrealistic. It has to gain global acceptance and adoption first. Hence, my thoughts about bitcoin in the years to come is that it will soon, Slowly but definitely be accepted and adopted by every country of the world.
3496  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: have you ever play or won from a crypto exchange lottery? on: October 13, 2021, 03:43:01 AM
I have never won because i have never played a crypto lottery, i am personally not so much in on lotteries. Formerly i have heard of persons who won the traditional lotteries, but at the moment in this stage as the world is economically and otherwise with most persons an organisations trying to make more money than they give out, i see most promises to win some money from an online platform either through lotteries or bonuses as crypto or traditional fiat as empty promises to lure users to their platform to generate traffic.
3497  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Stuck between two decision on: October 13, 2021, 03:08:19 AM
I have a good paying job that comes with lots of incentives I have been working here for quite some time now but my issue is that this job is very much demanding and my boss is very strict. I barely have time to rest and for now I can't afford to quit because it's just the key source of livelihood for me.

In this economy, not so many jobs still have the description of a "good paying job". If you have one that helps you get through this economy and handle your responsibilities effectively, please try to make a meaning out of it (don't rush into quiting to nothing yet), don't let your boss who is probably trying to frustrate you (probably doing it to others as well), don't let him win. There's a popular saying that - "the devil you know is better than the angel you know nothing about",  meaning if quiting and getting a new job is in the thought list, there is no assurance that the other boss you will have will be any better, if not worse.  

How long would it take to master a course in Blockchain development and is it a good option for someone who choose to take up a career in tech?
Since you are already considering this say part-time with your job till you can get on your foot, it's a good option, but before you proceed be sure to have a self assessment time to be certain that you have an interest that can sustain a career. You have to be sure of your options so you are not thrown into regrets.
3498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ]: Fury vs Wilder III - THE TRILOGY IS BACK ON !!! on: October 12, 2021, 06:31:35 AM


The first thing Wilder should do is to have a good rest. He shouldn't be thinking about boxing for at least 5 months. He needs to recover. A lot. He's badly beaten emotionally. He needs to enjoy other things outside boxing. As soon as he gets back, he should have already accepted his defeats. Failing to accept them will only make him lose more.

Wilder's next fights shouldn't be title fights. But he's got a lot of choices. There's Joshua, Whyte, Pulev, Ruiz, and others.

There are reports were it was confirmed that Wilder has gotten a bone in his hand, fingers/knuckles broken from the fight, probably out of trying to ensure that he hits hard, and knocks Fury down, so definitely, he will have to be out and rest for a while for a full recuperation.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.standard.co.uk/sport/boxing/deontay-wilder-hospital-broken-hand-tyson-fury-b959832.html%3famp

-Wilder still deserves some recognition, it is not easy to face an opponent that you know is a superb fighter like fury, and even after many direct punches, still was willing to see it through to the end. He really did his best as we saw a considerable improvement from the last fight, and even Fury could confirm that his punches were harder than before.  He is a strong boxer and even with his loss, i don't think many other boxers are in his category and can fight him.

Andy Ruiz has also made his intentions known of his interest to fight Fury for his WBC belt, not at the moment definitely, but after he has fully recovered from the surgery he underwent.

Proverb:
As e be for the Pighin; my people say, "e don tai i see you or you come, better pass you too dey come".
Meaning: Don't make yourself so readily avialable all the time, it devalues you. Be scares and missed at certain times, it adds to the way you carry yourself and the way your viewed/valued by people around you.

Omo brother the place cold nor be small, as i even enter here today, cobweb dun enter my eye sake of say activity nor too dey dey the room again like before. Wetin dey sup really?

For my side dem dey talk say na because say "Garri too dey dey house, nai make dem dey call am poor man food." Na the same English meaning e get with your proverb, make person try dey dey scare, so see finish nor go dey, very importantly.

I think PSG knows about the loss and they are knowingly taking the risk and hoping that Mbappe changes his decision and signs the contract extension and that is why they did not accepted those bids for a player who is on the edge of his contract.
I think Mbappe's move out of the club is inevitable, if not to Real Madrid, definitely another club. But after watching today's Nation League final match (France vs Spain), and seeing the chemistry in play between Mbappe and Benzema, I'm convinced that if Mbappe pulls through for Real Madrid and moves to the club, it will be massive for the club his combination with his fellow countryman Benzema and also for his self development.
