When the big sport events have been given to the host countries, its usual that world federations like FIFA etc, require from host detailed security concepts. IMO, the main question in this topic is...why the WBF seems not to do it? If they would do, any NBO could check ( with the utmost discretions, of course) it and decide: is it enough for us or not.

Curling in Alaska Anno Domini 2079 http://www.deserticebonspiel.com/curling_in_the_desert.JPG

A big part of european public opinion would like to change it immediately, but too many politicans in EU staates think and behave still like vassals of Washington. I am very curious to the way Obama is going to complain about chinese cyber attacks and espionage in the future. They will laugh him out of the court every time.

No Z-trees but a lot of work for classic Zambonis on Europe largest ice rink for skaters Remember Lee Marvin as a killer in Gorky Park?:ph34r: http://www.park-gorkogo.com/files/img/88ef51c7081ee7879cde7396ca9c3c0a.jpg

You are wrong. Many curling teams there, including European Champions (Women competition ) but I would agree with the statement : There are no avocado trees in Gorki Park

Such overreactions are quite usual anywhere, when the hypocrites are being suddenly unmasked. PS. No curling in Quito :angry:

Tja, the politicans in Washington, republicans, democrats are foaming with rage all together, The tales about USA as innocent victim of massive cyber attacks cannot be told by them anymore, They are doing the same, they let attack countries that have nothing to do with terror, or how can they explain these cyber attacks by NSA on the chinese universities servers or mobile phone corporations etc etc...They know now , everytime they threat in these matters with moral pointing fingers, the world will answer maybe with : F***k the PRISM and Tempora

Monday flight SU150 to Havana ( No stopover at the Guantanamo Airport)

Good luck Mr Snowden, wherever you fly to.B-)

With "both failed" I meant in my previous posting the german national team.

No doubt, Klinsmann ist a Great Motivator, this was/is his strongest side as a coach, but there was never lack of motivation in US team, these guys always fight. What they most need is a clever tactical behavior, strategy, by the analysis of the opponent...and in these things Klinsmann failed in both, national team and FC Bayern...the german experts all agree that.

Will Nike, Adidas & Puma fight this time to be the main sponsor of the Official Water Cooler 2014 World Cup Contest?B-)

Berlin welcomes Obama with YES WE SCAN !

^What about the card play? Would this format complicate the technical expert play much or not so?

Imagine, you wake up and there is a new bridge game with 56 cards incl. 4 "Ceasars"♠♥♦♣ Countig 5 for each we would have 60 hcp in a game. The top contacts Ultimate Slams= 14 tricks, Grand Slam 13, no old slams A new game level at >>>4NT, 5♠♥ 6♦♣?? Would the old conventions be useless or needed only new ranges? 1NT with 19-24?:rolleyes: Lets try to develope some things, ideas, conventions ( not necesserily serious)B-)

Unlucky thing at the finish, but looking at all 28 boards WD dudes!

Is Microsoft going to make a half backflip with The Windows Blue? from 8 to 7,5?

Anyway, 2 german teams in Wembley, british press will be not amused hehe

German fans are very happy with the most exciting football week ever. FC Bayern and Dortmund destroyed both Real & Barca in the CL. FC Bayern try to destroy Dortmunds power by buying their two world class players.....and the supreme morilizer of the republic the Bayern Boss stands with one leg in the jail due to his tax affair.

Mars player get of course a red stars but only if they qualify to the Galaxy Bowl.

I would do, but only under stringent condition that the connection to BBo would be ensured during the whole trip.

If a list with "The things that will never happen in North America" would really exist, this one would be surely in the top5 heh

Wow! revolutionary changes in the ACBL system restriction policy come soon. The Competition and Conventions Committee sent a proposal to the Board of Directors to tear down all these restrictions walls in the system policy. All systems and conventions will be allowed, starting at the ACBL Fall Nationals 2013. One of the ACBL officials has been quoted with following words:" This is a free country, you can play what do you want!!!!
