I expect a low-scoring encounter between belgium and wales. When those two national teams met each other in qualifications to this tournament there was only 1 goal scored in 2 qualifying games. I believe that another low-scoring match might be expected.
I agree with you. Most people believe that Belgium is much better team and they Wales have no chance against them but I don't think so. Wales have one extraordinary player, Bale, who alone can decide winner in this match and they never before had such chance to make great result for them and their country. They will surely give their best and will not give up their dream about victory. Remember Iceland? IN my opinion everything is possible tonight and Wales also have good chance to win.

There are many possibilities. In the worse case scenario, humankind will be destroyed in nuclear war or because of climate changes. in little better scenario, we will avoid such scenario and move to other planets. In the best scenario, people will learn and practice peace and love and we will live as one big, global family. If you are religious man, you probably believe that after we die, we will join our Creator, God, in the Heavenly kingdom.

Alaska was part of Russia until 1867, when it was bought by William Seward for the US. This was slightly before Britain created the Dominion of Canada. In March of 2014 a petition was started to demand the return of Alaska to the Russians.
I can't see the US allowing any change to occur, but would it be advantageous if it did?
If we want to be fair, we should first ask native people of Alaska, Inuits, what they think about this idea. After all, they first came to Alaska, not Russians or Americans. Maybe, they want to become independent and have their own country? What about referendum about this issue? It's selfish to look at Alaska situation only from white people perspective.

Can you trust anything in today's world? Your friends, boss, wife, media, even your government and international institutions? I don't think so. In the same way, even if you invest money in the real market, you can't be sure if you will earn something or loose everything. So, we can't give you any guarantee about bitcoin now. It's still mostly idea, not reality, but we are trying to reach breakthrough point and become mainstream. Everything is risk in life, so never invest money you can't afford to loose.

No way. First, it's my private asset. Second, they can't prove that I earned this BTC funds, or hold it, in my country ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Third, Bitcoin is not recognize as legal money, so from perspective of my government, this BTC funds in my wallet have no value and they can't tax it.

Portugal -vs- Poland I was a little confused as to bet on which team will win as long as the euro took place two teams did not play too good but I followed my heart to bet on Portugal.
and my hearth is with Poland, since my Croatia lost from Portugal ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) In fact, I think both teams have equal chances to win, so it will be very interesting to watch. Their main stars, Ronaldo and Lewandowski still didn't show much.

Most of the favorites have not performed too usual form in these ater stages
Atleast belgium has performed as a a top teams in the euro, they have beaten hungary with 4 goals and they will be able to beat wales as well. Apart from that france actually made a nice comeback from losing against northern ireland in the first half so I would really say that they have not performed as expected Hungary wasn't real test for Belgium. Real test was Italy and they failed. I think that France played with republic Ireland ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) In my opinion, Italy, Germany or France will win this European Cup because they are the fittest and most experienced teams. Experience, routine and self-confidence are usually the most important elements of the final success in any tournament.

Bringing this kid to Rome... At all costs and it ain't a few judeans barbarians who could have stop Pilate... If you doubt what I just wrote it's because you don't understand anything. What does the Quran reports on those miracles... Good question...
Ps if you wanna see a miracle watch a bird fly and remeber it came in an egg ;-) like the alligator! (And the fish too).
You have first to understand Jesus's mission. He came to save not himself but all humankind. So, his goal never was to save only himself. In fact, his victory was spiritual, not external. We celebrate his resurrection, not death.

No really. I really don't think that we can find real info or truth in media. In fact, I believe that most people today are brainwashed by media today to accept some so called ''universal rights'' or to accept that government have to decide about everything, or to believe in democracy etc. People just accept everything they heard in media, or from politicians, without any thinking. So sad reality.

It's very difficult to answer this question because all people are different and you can't teach them in the same way. Younger people, which understand modern technologies and Internet very well, you can explain Bitcoin very quickly, without to many words. For older people or people not familiar with modern technologies, we have to spend much more time and patience in order to explain bitcoin or at least basic concept of virtual currencies.

I don't think that is possible to find real answer to this question. In my country I believe that very small number of people using Bitcoin based on activity in this and other forums. Also, we have only a few merchants which accept bitcoin. In fact, right now, our concern shouldn't be number of Bitcoin users but how many merchants accept Bitcoin. If people can use Bitcoin in many different places they will become interesting in Bitcoin and start using it.

I'm also amazed with great play of Iceland against England, but they don't have chance against France. I think that in semi final we will see France, Belgium, Portugal and Italy or Germany. All of them have very good chances to become champions. I'm just sorry for my country, Croatia, because they lost fight with Portugal.

Enjoy your luck to be alive like if you had a chance on a trillion of quadrillions to be born, since those were more or less your odds.
Make the most of life like if it was a single drop of water tumbling on your lips on an infinite desert.
Value every day of it as if you were on a death row waiting for your turn, because you are; you just have a wonderful cell.
There's 0% luck and 100% of God's creation to be alive. I agree that we are all created beings but still our creator, God, gave us freedom and free will to choose our life. We can live in the harmony with creation and our creator, God, and such way of life will bring us happiness, joy and love, and eternal life in spiritual world. If we choose not to live according to god's will, our way of life will not bring us happiness, joy and love and we will not have ternal life in spiritual world.

The petition to remove effect to the referendum already has 3,743,751 signatures ( https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/131215). A change on the pools about the outcome and another deal with the EU could create the conditions for another referendum. But even taking in account how much is at stake, including UK's unity, (at least) the short-term conditions of its economy, its role on Europe and EU future (and also Cameron's future), it won't be easy to happen. A popular decision is a popular decision. I think that this referendum had many protest votes. People voted for option: ''leave'' because of some other reasons, like dissatisfaction with politicians, or generally with the situation in society, no jobs, crimes etc. Most of them didn't really want that UK leave EU and now they are all in panic and want new referendum. Unfortunately, as I heard, it's very complicate and difficult legal process to start new referendum and already Cameroon said that there will be no new referendum. Also, it seems EU is not willing to wait to long for UK to leave.

I don't think that people (brokers) invested in Bitcoin because of Brexit. In gold, yes, but not in Bitcoin. Banks and financial institutions must operate according to their national laws and financial regulations. As you know, in official market nobody offers Bitcoin yet. So, I'm sure that brokers invested their funds in other currencies, oil or gold. Maybe some of them invested also in Bitcoin but as private person only.

Since the price of Bitcoin changes a lot, so I know most of you are investing large amounts of money in Bitcoin. But why are you doing this? to make money by selling them after a price increase? or is it just to have something to do on the internet? And since the price can increase and decrease, you can lose this invested money, what would you do?
I investing my money in Bitcoin because I see great potential of Bitcoin. I'm sure that Bitcoin is revolutionary and visionary project, next evolution of money. So, when I invest in Bitcoin I'm sure that I Invest in the future, something what will become mainstream very soon. In fact, I don't worry much about changeable price of Bitcoin now. Soon, this price will go to sky ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I don't think that direct democracy is good idea. We can see it through many recent events. In UK, most people voted based on emotions, not rational thinking. They was cheated that leaving EU will means more money for their health care and no more immigrants. Now, when they are finally aware what they did, they already collected 2 millions votes for new referendum. Only politicians are qualified to make such hard decisions, because they know all facts and in direct negotiation can always make some good political deal or compromise. They are, after all, direct legal representatives of their voters.

Scotland has clearly announced it wants to remain in the EU. Ireland and Gibraltar have been less vocal, but they're not far behind. There's a huge opportunity for Ireland to reunite, it will be seized. Ditto for Gibraltar in Spain.
The UK has always been a BS country anyway. It was built on treason, the prince of Wales doesn't deserve his title, and blood. Nazi Germany has killed millions of Jews, Britain has killed millions of Scottish and Irish men and women. I drink to Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, they'll enter history books as the men who have destroyed the UK. They are heroes just like Gorbatchev who allowed the USSR, another BS country, to self-destruct.
We don't need countries. The smaller they are, the less power they have, the better for the people!
I agree with you that is very good possibility that Scotland and N. Ireland will leave UK and join EU again. I can't agree that we don't need countries any more. If no countries, it means no governments, no laws, no order etc. What will be results of it? Anarchy and self destruction. By the way, I think that Gorbatchev did great thing when he allowed peaceful dissolution of USSR and end of communism regime.

I think that biggest problem with Bitcoin is that we are not recognized by law in the most countries in the world. It means, if someone stole my Bitcoin, I can't report it as crime because in my country Bitcoin isn't money or financial asset. Even if I will try to explain someone what is Bitcoin, I'm not sure if they will understand or care.

I guess that my least favorite thing about Bitcoin is unstable price of BTC. In one day Bitcoin can have value of $800 and other day $500. It's sometimes worse than in regular market. I really hope that once, when Bitcoin become mainstream, its value will stabilize.
