    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I actually think it was beneficial to the overall survival of many people that they used pressure cookers versus something like a plastic container. Those pressure cookers work from 15-20 PSI, with a usual max failure rate of 25-30PSI. When the bombs went off, a lot of the energy was used to...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    Gas the entire premise with something similar to the gas agents used in the Moscow theater hostage situation. Sure he might die from it, but there aren't hostages and he might be taken alive plus no one would die from any possible suicide explosion.

    If these guys are this determined and brazen to attack people on US soil, the 2014 Olympics in Sochi (about 300 miles from Chechnya) are going to be a bad time for everyone.

    1,2,4, and 11 on the revenue list. Man Utd is #1 on club values but #3 on revenue/budget money list. The more I am reading up on the match up the more it seems that play-style wise, Bayern was the best choice for Barca. Dortmund play very aggressive, counter attacking and that can hurt Barca...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I think you missed the 2 biggest problems: 1. Mt.Gox controls around 80% of the bitcoin transactions. This is terrible because any hit to them, easily destabilizes the currency. In addition, lacking protection on transaction bot spamming and trader lag issues are also present, this adds up to...

    Barca got lucky with having the away leg first yet again. Is there a rule or something that decides it or is it just pure luck? Because Barca had the away leg first in the last 4 knockout rounds, maybe even more (Chelsea, Milan, PSG, now Bayern).

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    The main difference between the exchanges is the rates they offer and fees/ease of getting USD to them. For buying BTC, I prefer to avoid exchanges and use this guyhttp://jdpowell.net/. I would stay away from Mt.Gox to try and drop their overall transactions. The fact that they control around...

    One easy fix that someone mentioned on the Bitcoin subreddit was to add a Captcha verification to every trade. It seems like a hassle and I am not sure how it would affect open buy orders that you leave if a price drops to a certain point, but I would rather have that vs. broken exchanges that...

    I agree with you. If it was just Mt.Gox it would be understandable. Considering btce, btc china, etc were all having issues, seems sketchy that it was just random panic selling. In addition there are plenty of graphs that showed how bots were spamming .02 btc trades hundreds of times to lag the...

    Pique doesn't really have much pace. Younger/injury free Puyol and Abidal did, so the 2/3 would compliment each other really well. Now you have someone who is usually technically sound (Pique) yet fairly slow along side quick defenders (Alba, Alves, Adriano) yet they aren't very gifted...

    Today Mt.Gox wasn't the only exchange that was having issues with overloading and ddos attacks, I believe BTC-E was one of the other victims. I would wait till things calm down over night and then go from there.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Word on Reddit is that bots are pumping massive amounts of small transactions into Mt.Gox and overloading it. In addition quite a few bitcoin based websites are going down as well. Just the weekly ddos attack that we have seen many times before. The only possible benefit for the regular Bitcoin...

    I find this doubtful. The current queue on Mt.Gox is somewhere around 15,000 - 20,000 people. As soon as any substantial dump occurs (1500+ coins), they are instantly bought up. There are way too many people trying to buy and hold vs. those that are interested in unloading quickly. I wouldn't be...

    For those that didn't get in early with Bitcoins, a few things have been released over the last few days about Mt.Gox possibly listing Litecoins toward the end of the month. They were around $.80 a few weeks ago and peaked around $5.50 a couple of days ago before starting to hover around $3-4. I...

    Quite the drama filled Barca-PSG game. Still better going into the Camp Nou 2-2 vs. the 2-0 after Milan. Just hope that Messi recovers in the next 8 days and Tito figures out what to do with our back-line. Mascherano changed from his awesome center-back performances during the 2011 UCL winning...

    NBA : 1992 Dream Team vs. 2012 Dream Team

    He wasn't. He was still scoring 20+ points a game and the majority of his other numbers closely averaged what he was doing in Chicago. The only number that was off was his 3 point shot. Still fairly impressive considering he took a 3-4 year break.

    I am not saying Malaga will win, I would like them to win but they are the clear underdog. The more La Liga teams that make it through (minus Real of course), the better. In terms of Bayern vs. Juve, look at the Bayern numbers for the UCL games vs. what they have done in the Bundesliga. When...

    On the bench. When Cesc plays, it pushes Iniesta out of the middle and onto the left wing. Iniesta is naturally a middle dominant player and tends to drop back toward the middle. With Iniesta/Cesc in the middle, there is less room for Xavi to work his magic. In addition you have less people...

    Seeing this celebration and how happy Villa was after his go-ahead goal, made me smile like a little kid. Can't feel anything but joy for him after his rough 1+ years of recovering from injury and trying to get back into the first team.

    And they said Messi never scores goals against Italian teams in open play. Barca need to keep the foot down and run Milan into the ground. MVP up front, Xavi/Iniesta/Busquets in the middle as it should be.

    Messi has said time and time again that he plays much better without rest. With that said, I think we are running into the same issues as last Spring in regards to him in that we are putting too much dependence on him. Apart from Messi, Barca doesn't have a 2nd consistent goal scorer. They...

    Sanchez - Should be perfect for Barca. No ones fault except his own that he can't convert even the simplest of goals. There have been multiple games this season where any middle of the road striker would have gotten 2-3 goals. His first season was better but lately his confidence has been shot...

    So this is what its like to be embarrassed by your rivals.

I would take the 40-50 mil Euro Neymar fund...
