More Italien bollocks

2007-03-04T15:11:00.000Z

As I was just about to eat a Mars bar my flatmate trys to tell me how bad it is for me

Flatmate: You know it takes an athlete 10 hours of solid training to burn off one Mars bar
Me: Sorry but thats complete crap
Flatmate: No it does

So I looked it up, using the Nikeplus site I know that I burn 1100 calories every 50 minutes and checking this site I find that one mars bar contains 294 calories. Or about 17 minutes of running.

I love confirming bullshit

Two things. 1. Marathon 2. Valentines

2007-02-19T17:47:00.000Z

Just decided that I'm going to run the Edinburgh marathon in May. I need challenges to get me going and I've been feeling a bit down lately so this should perk me up. I'm going to run it for Guide Dogs for the blind Scotland as its a good cause and it recieves no outside funding, aswell as the fact I get a nice feeling every time I see a working dog, they work so hard for the wellbeing of another which can't be said of most people.

Anyway, I'll have a link on here once I get something back from the charity so you'd be able to sponsor me if you agree with the cause or if you'd like to support me through this.

Second thing is Valentines
God I hate that day, being forced to do something special on one particular day, pants, I don't agree with it at all but I thought I would make an effort. The girlfriend was meant to be at her Grandads that day and the Rangers UEFA cup match was on that night so I didn't have to think of anything eventwise, just presents. That was until 4 days before when she decides she won't go to Glasgow and that she'll stay. Crap, time to think of plan B.

Plan B
5 course meal with Champagne, cavier, smoked salmon etc etc then see Hot Fuzz at the cinema with her favourite chocolates and a health grill (she loves mine and she said she hated presents like Teddies, she only likes practical presents). Its a lot nicer as a surprise so i kep her wondering and told her just to come to mine at 7pm. At about 6.30pm I get a message asking if we are doing anything because she feels like a valentines reject and arrives at mine for 7.15 meaning that we are late for our booking. When we do get there she starts to tell me shes feels really guilty because she's told all of her friends already that I've done nothing, and that she has gotten me some batteries for my camera and an ice scraper for my car (admittedly I need both).

It's nice to be appreciated

Some HP Predictions

2007-01-20T23:12:00.000Z

I'm currently enthralled by the Harry Potter books, halveway through number 5 when exam revision rudely interupted me. Seems childish to read them and I've managed to not do so for years, but in truth they are addictive and there's always enough unsovlved pieces of plot to make you keep reading.

Anyway, my prediction for the last books ending (early I know seeing as I'm two books away) is that Harry Potter is a Horcruxe for Voldermort's soul which overrides my initial prediction during book two that Neville Longbottom would in the end kill Voldermort.

Scotland, world champions in March?

2007-01-18T00:36:00.000Z

Theres an idea sprung out of Scotlands home championship win over World cup champions England in 1967 that Scotland were the Unofficial world champions. Anyway, someone took this step further, did the research and came up with the Unofficial Football World Championships starting with the Worlds first international match back in 1872.

The title doesn't go to the World cup winner, rather to win the title you have to defeat the current holder and then you hold it until you're next defeated.

Current champions are Georgia since they beat Uraguay 2-0 back in November, which is quite exciting seeing as they play Scotland on the 24th of March. Surely in glasgow Scotland will take the Unofficial World champion title. Well at least until the 28th of March when they travel to Rome to play Italy.

Theres even talk of a trophy being involved at some stage

Dear W.Smith

2007-01-16T00:44:00.000Z

First can I say welcome back to Rangers, my Dad always said that Walter Smiths Rangers won every other game 3-0, 4-0 or 5-0 and you managed that in your first game back with the same squad that LeGuen couldn't, you must feel like you're back home. I don't blame you for leaving the Scotland job and thank you for taking us from 88th back up to 25th, most people won't know that you took the Scotland under 18s to win the European Youth Championship in 1982 but I do. You've made an easy job for your succesor because no Scotland will be second seeds in their group and so will only face one big gun, rather than 4th seeds having to qualify against both World cup finalists and the Ukraine.
Plenty of people will point out that you had more money last time you were at Ibrox but I'm sure you will buy well and bring in the best of Scottish talent, who will play their hearts out for the club.
I'm slightly worried by the signing of 36 year old David Weir, I hope hes just a short term fix to ensure champions league qualification and maybe taking a coaching role at the end of the season.

I'd also suggest maybe giving Fabio Capello a ring to see if you can get Beckham on loan for the next 5 months seeing as they don't want him, he wants to be released from his contract early and LA Galaxy have ruled out him arriving early. He's not got much to do for the rest of the season.
Yours faithfully,
Iain

Has Beckham considered the exchange rates?

2007-01-14T23:32:00.000Z

Much has been said recently of the massive contract David Beckham has signed in the US of £128m but no one has said whether the contract is actually based in US dollars or British Sterling which would make a lot of difference.

Currently you get nearly 2 dollar to a pound, hence why I can buy an ipod in the US for £103, pay £20 postage and save £57 on the price from the same chain over here, how ridiculous. Surely the consumers will catch on over here and refuse to buy them until they match the US price over here. My purchase has shown that it doesn't cost an extra £77 to ship one tiny item across here. Not just the iPod either, I've just bought a camera for £67 that was £165 over here.

Anyway, the current exchange rate seems unnaturally high, should the US economy get back on track and ours take a set back then we might see the exchange rate return to levels from pre-9/11 ($1.43 per GBP) then if his contract is based on dollars then his contract would be worth £175m across 5 years, up from £128m. Likewise if it is based in British Sterling it would be reduced to $183m from $250m.

Of course the economies could go in the other direction too

Stalking the Haggis

2007-01-09T21:15:00.000Z

My girlfriend phoned me a couple of nights ago tell me that her parents had been drinking wine with their friends and had started talking about what they were going to do for Burns night.

She moaned to me that her parents were telling her that she would have to shoot a haggis herself and then take it down to them after her exams so that they could cook a haggis shot by their own daughter, impressing their friends.

I wondered they realised that the haggis wasn't an animal, but didn't want to say anything in case they knew of course and it made me look stupid so I waited until she was on her own to speak to her,

Me: Erm, you do realise that haggis isn't an animal don't you
Her: Yeah, I'm not stupid
Me: Oh good, I thought you were coming across as really thick for a moment with your parents convincing you that you could shoot one for them
Her: Oh, I thought you could...
Me: How?
Her: Isn't the haggis a small bird that you hunt and then its stuffed into a sheep stomach...
Me: Who told you that?
Her: My parents, I said a haggis wasn't an animal and they told me that
Me: What else did they tell you?
Her: That you recognise the male because when he gets excited you can see his testicles around his neck

New Years ideas

2006-12-11T01:56:00.000Z

I'll be winging my way down to Manchester in less than a week for revision and Christmas with my family, most of which I'll spend tutoring them how to use the various electronics than they'll gift each other. During that period I'll no doubt meet up with some old friend for drinks, do a little karting, have our usual family Christmas day and then along will come New years. I'm dreading new years eve because I have no idea what to do, the past few year have been such a let down. When you head into town you end up spending 4 times as much for a night that just isnt any better than any other night of the year, if you stay local, well its more or less the same except you can't even do a tour of the pubs because half charge on the door, or have sold out of tickets and the rest are too full. Last year I stayed in, treated it like any other night but even that turned out to be a disapointment as I never got even close to the amount of self gratification I thought I might. Is there anything worthwhile to do in Manchester for new years?

Have a nice day, and an idea to improve the Uni

2006-12-10T23:56:00.000Z

God, I hate when you get your shopping and the checkout person tells you to have a nice day but the way they present it, you know they couldn't care less. Thats probably halve the reason why I was so impressed by someone wishing me the same today. I dropped Laurie off and on the way back called into the little Tesco's. As I approached the till the server, a little Brazilian looking guy called Santos greeted me with a smile, struck up a polite conversation and then wished me a nice day as I left, and it all felt genuine. It's not much but it made me leave feeling happier than when I entered.

Second item on the agenda is Pressley possobly heading back to Rangers. Don't be crazy, he's a good player but we need to be looking at the future, and he certainly isn't it. We probably can't win the league so why not concentrate and blooding some of the younger players, they'll improve with a season of games under their belts, no point spending what little money is available to improve our chances from one in a hundred to one in ninety.

Third item, and replies please anybody that reads this. When someone posts a comment on your blog that warrants a reply, do you
a. Reply on your own blog straight under their comment even though they will have no notification that you have replyed and may never see it again or
b. reply to their blog at their latest posting even though this will make the new comment seem totally out of context in relation to their post?

It always confuses me, maybe Blogger should put out a pamphlet on blogging etiquette!

Lastly, Harry Potter. I just finished he first book yesterday, after holding firm against it for years and I have to say I was impressed, so easy to read, it is quite exciting and it does start to grip you by the later chapters. Tonight because of finishing the book I watched the first film too, it's pants, but then the actors are very young so I imaine they'll be better in the later films.

All in all Hogwarts reminded me of two things,
a. University
b. Sandhurst

Mainly because of the away from home for a year, away from the parent safety net. Something I would advise Aberdeen Universities people of power to do is to read the books and see what they can take from them to make simple improvement to their students lives (they surely have read the books seeing as they bestowed JK Rowling with a doctorate in July).

I lived in Hillhead in my first year along time ago, and we (Fyfe house) had a rivalry with the other catered halls, Adam Smith and Wavell. This rivalry only went so far as mildly abusive songs on the bus to Amadeus or the Union. Crombie-Johnson, well we all agreed that we hated them, bunch of toffs. Anyway, I'm heading for a tangent, the university just plonks you into these houses and then leaves you to do as you please, hopefully you'll make productive friendships that will help you through your student life, but if you don't well tough. There are older students in each block (wardens), but they only concern you if your a hot girl or your causing trouble.

How hard would it be to build a tradition for each house, make people want to work for their house and to do it proud. How hard would it be just to organise a 5 a side football league between the houses, the same for Rugby, even a pub quiz team and a tug of war? Not very, thats the answer. Out of interest what do the Uni sports reps do with their time?, whenever I've been to their office they've all been logged onto Bebo whilst telling me they are too busy to even draw up league tables for the football leagues that they are running.

Anyway, if you played in a team with someone then thats a bond, a little something cementing you together, or even supporting your houses team could help (I know I'd go back and cheer on the new Fyfe housers). It would mean that a few years down the line you're not just friends with the guy across the hall and your best mate from two floors down, but you'd still have a bond with them all. I think it would also make the university sport thrive (because lets face it, its a bit pants, only the most sporting types bother). After you finished first year and you moved on to new accomodation, you would probably stay in the team from the year before, across 4 years they would have an intra mural league with 16 more teams, they could probably run a three tier league system. Just an idea really, just what I wish had happened when I arrived here.

Note for rant

2006-12-09T18:02:00.000Z

Sorry, missed a key note for my rant, regarding the Romans because I tend to hit tangents and follow them without returning.

The Romans defeated us? I doubt any Romans made it to the western isles where my ancesters resided, as my Dad says "the Romans greatest achievement was building a wall to keep us (the Scots) out".

Ahem, finished.

"Britain owes everything to Italy"

2006-12-09T15:54:00.000Z

Ok, now I'm ranting about the same subject two nights in a row but my Italien flatmate said something wonderful last night. We were watching a TV programme about how Italien food was introduced to the UK and the programme also said during this period Brittish gents also started wearing Italien shoes and Italien fashion, whilst Italen coffees, music and cinema was all the rage.

At this point he says to me completely sincere "you Brits owe everthing to us" . I was shocked, although I ranted back about the amount of things that Great Britain had given the world, fair play we havn't enlightened the world with our culinary ideas, but I'd say per head we've invented the most helpful gizmos and break-thrus of any country on this planet

If you've used a tin can, you can thank us, maybe you've been scuba diving, we'll thanks are due again, ever used an electro magnet? probably not but thats a British invention along with the fax. Internal combustion engine, the lightbulb (where would we be without that?), the locomotive, the Kelvin scale, Penicilin!!!!!, polyester, the periodic table, Radar, the steam engine, steel, toilet paper (thank god), Football, Rugby, the internet, the vacuum cleaner an viagra. Are we going to swap these for spaghetti, parma ham, pretty shoes, diving and fascism.

Anyway, I had a little rant about what we had brought to the World when he brought up the Romans and how they had defeated us and had been a better empire than the British. Surely if it wasn't for the British empire the World (good or bad) wouldn't be in its advanced industrial state, the USA wouldn't be the same country and the World would be speaking German and celebrating Hitler day. He brought up the fact that the US had to chip in to help win the war to which I had to say, where would the US be if the UK hadn't fought from 1939 until the US joined the war? It would probably be in a war against Hitlers Europe rather than Hitlers Germany, fact is the UK fought for 6 long years through that war and it didn't exactly take the spoils of war afterwards, it allowed Germany, Austria and Italy their own freedoms afterwards, something I imagine Italy and Germany would not have done should it have gone the other direction.

Kid yourself

2006-12-07T22:57:00.000Z

Some people are just too optomistic (or arrogant) about themselves. I'm running two football teams at the moment, one team in particular trains twice a week so on Wednesdays I put the team through a bleep test to test their fitness and for a bit of phys before we move on to drills.

Last week (the first one I got results between 6-4 and 11-5) I was not too impressed with the squad but this week I was very pleased. The exact same test and everybody drastically improved their score, for example Adam improved from 6-4 to 9-9, the bottom score was a new comer at 8-11, two people broke last weeks record at 11-8 and 12-8.

Anyway thats enough background info. I told my flatmate about it

Me: One of the lads nearly got a level 13 in the bleep test yesterday, I though that was brilliant
Dani: thats nothing I'd get a level 15
Me: No you wouldn't, you'd get a level 7

I normally don't like to put people down, but he was being arrogant and had just dismissed completely my opinion

Dani: No, I used to run at school and those tests are just about stamina, I have loads of stamina, ...... starts telling me stuff about muscles having memory tissue and after long periods away from training can quickly get back to their best.....

This made me think back to the one game hes played for my Sunday league team, where he was massively unfit, couldn't keep pace and died on his arse leading to my bollocking from the rest of the squad for playing him in the first place.

Me: That was years ago, and you smoke, theres no way you'll get past level 10, I'm sure of that. In fact I'll bet you twenty quid right now that you can't get a level 10
Dani: Ok, (shakes on bet), but I need a practise run.
Me: Why, you just run between two points until you cant run anymore.
Dani: Thats not fair
Me: Because you're not fit enough
Dani: I'm buying a car and going to the gym more in a month I'll be able to do it but I need practice runs.
Me: Well do a practice run then, I don't care, you've got a month to do it, that gives you until January 10th shall we say?
Dani: No thats when I get back from Italy
Me: Ok, the 14th?
Dani: thats not enough time
Me: Thats a month and a week
Dani: But I'm not training in Italy, I need to see my family

This made me wonder, a bleep test only takes up 20 mins maximum

Me: Ok, a month from when you get back is Feb 10th
Dani: I need two months to train, you've been training all the time
Me: Erm, I have a fracture in my leg, I can barely walk at the moment, you know that
Dani: How long are you running for to get a level 20?

That last line was just ridiculous but he feels he can get to that point. If you're still reading, can you easily see my point where he went from insisting he could get three levels above the fittest player in my squad against my advice and then when it came to the punch insisting on having practice tests and not doing the test until over 3 months from now.

Heres my hypothesis: I'll remind Dani in a month or so that we had this bet, he'll completely deny it ever happened or confidently insist that hes on track and has been training for it (he'll have ran once). He'll still be smoking. A few weeks before the test Dani will maybe do a practise run but will probably insist that he has no time at all in his life because hes been so busy (he works 9-5, gets stoned 3-4 times a week, and thats it. He doesn;t go to the gym that he pays 32 quid a month for because its a 5 minute run away). In addition to my hypothesis on Dani I'll make one on myself, my leg will be partly healed by the middle of January and I'll start light running again, I'll be up to level 11 by march and level 13 by april.

Rangers scottish form

2006-11-08T22:45:00.000Z

Le Guens had 13 game to impress so far, including 2 against lower league opposition and heres the result of it (excluding european games)

13 Games
5 Wins
3 Draws
5 Losses

Considering how the knifes were out for Mcleish last season heres how his last season ended (excluding european games)

13 Games
9 Wins
2 Draws
2 Losses

He didn't play any lower league opposition and of course his last 5 games were against the top 6 teams in the SPL.

I'm not quite calling for his head just saying that maybe people should have been a little kinder to Mcleish.

How not to go on a date

2006-10-28T04:16:00.000Z

Do not take her to Drummonds to see a band thinking you'll be able to have great chat before they come on. The supporting bands will play semi awful music and scream alot.

Do not meet up with a group of friends who are all wankered and think its idea to put you in a headlock.

Do not walk her to your car, realise you've lost your keys, spend 30 minutes looking for them and then have to put her in a taxi so that you can wander back to clubs asking bouncers if they've found some keys.

If only someone had made this guide for me before hand.

Beckham's fit

2006-10-25T02:20:00.000Z

Just doing some research on the bleep test (because I'm going to make one of my football teams do it).

The bleep test consists of running between two lines 20 metres apart before the beep. If you are late for 3 consecutive beeps then the last beep is your level, and this can be used to estimate you VO2 max level. For 18-25 year olds a level 14 score is regarded as excellent.

To be on time for each beep on the first level you need to run at 8.5 km/h. The speed required for each level increases by 0.5km/h so
1= 8.5
5= 10.5
10= 13
15= 15.5
20= 18
23= 19.5

I think I'm at 9-3.
David Beckham can complete all 23 levels of the test, and so is unrated.
Jonah Lomu achieved a level 10 (although he did weigh in at 260lbs) .

Bagged a banger

2006-10-24T15:53:00.000Z

Went to the car auctions yesterday and got my first car at £500. Seems a bargain but I'll find out across the next year. Insurance is £380 which I suppose isn't bad for my first year.

Anyway, here she is

Total birds car really but it'll do the job I guess.

Also one of my footy teams (AEK Altens) got our first win since the coup, beating 5th place 11-1 on Sunday. Our team just seemed to click, theres didn't. Martyn instead of putting 5 shots over the bar put 5 in the net, I managed to set up 3 and then went on a rampage at the end and got myself a goal too. Two more games left before the end of the season to make sure we get away from that relegation zone.

Take from this what you will

2006-10-23T11:46:00.000Z

Went to the cinema on Saturday night to see Children of men, good acting, interesting film, but dissapointing as not much is explained during the film either how the world got into the state it is at the start or what happens at the end, I wouldn't be shocked if there was a prequel/sequel at some point (yes I know there was only one book, but the film industry sniffs out any money making oppotunity).

Anyway the film finished at 01:40 and we weren't drinking so Red, drove me and Jude to Asda to get shopping while its dead. On the way back along Hutcheon St crossing George St the lights were changing, it was one of those situatios where in a split second you have to weigh up whether to put your foot down and safely get through or break hard but the road was wet, it's an old car, I bet if he would hava skidded into the middle of the junction so he put his foot down just to get through. Straight away a police car followed him round the corner and stopped him for speeding.

He got out, explained the situation and I have to say they were pleasant enough (I've had too many run ins with wankers in police uniforms). The thing that really annoyed me was that a minute later another car arrived, with bizzarely the lights on and then a couple of minutes after that a third car arrived which proceded to circle mounthooley and the junction where we were, and then a fourth. This is 03.00 in the morning, surely at least one car could have headed to Belmont St or somewhere trouble might be brewing. Contrast this with a night when a Neighboar of my ex was screaming at her, threatened her, and then battered his own girlfriend the response to that same area was nearly an hour.

How can we defend ourselves against them?

Constructive criticism

2006-10-15T17:02:00.000Z

Seeing as I've put the odd post on here about one of my footy teams I'll add this. It comes from a team forum we have for posting fixtures, results, league table etc

Simon says:
due to there being no after match pub filled post mortem of our miserable performance and i am bored at work, i thought i would give my 2pence worth, in the style of a profane rant (the profanity is for amuzement, not emphasis or spite... honest)

The team was fucking unfit, and the finnishing was pish poor,

BUT:

the goalkeepers distribution was crap (i.e. about the only player to find the net... wrong net though)
the defence were getting skipped past like cunts, or were positioned poorly, or didnt know who the fuck they were marking, or just made really fucking bad decisions.
the defences distribution to midfielders was utter pish

the midfield were having to drop deep to cover for the crap defence or get the ball from the defenders. this allowed the cunting opposition to get men behind the ball so were impossible to break down.

we werent keeping possession, we either werent meeting the ball (like we were fucking scared of it), or were getting caught in possession like we bloody love giving the ball away, or were running up the line like a cunt for no fucking reason.
Nobody was fucking moving, like its better to stand and wait for the ball before giving it away??

the link up between midfield and attack was dia-fucking-bolical, partly due to the swarming opposition (defender/midfield and even attack... as they had so much time to recover before our fucking midfield got close to the ball) and partly due to a particular forward making constantly shit runs and decisions and touches and everything...

all in all it was dire, and should not be repeated.

He later phoned me to check he hadn't upset anyone too much.

Anyway, just about to go and get ready for the next game. My prediction a 6-3 loss seeing as our attacking midfielder and striker have both decided they want to play at the back. This is all very well if it wasn't for the fact that now we have to play two defenders in midfield and two midfielders up front.

Value of a Soldiers life

2006-10-15T13:31:00.000Z

I spoke to a Captain last week combining my interest in Economics and the Military asking him

"Does the ministry of defence have an economist somewhere who works out the value of a Soldiers life?"

In a way surely every officer has to make this decision at some point, whether taking that bunker is worth losing on average one soldier, whether the gain outwighs the value of his life. Or on a bigger scale whether taking a country and all its resources are more than the value of lost personnel as well.

Anybody know how they would work this out? Just on the service of it I reckon you would have to take into account the loss his training, compensation paid because of his death and the bad publicity causes by it.

Rangers 0 - 1 Inverness Caley Thistle

2006-10-14T16:57:00.000Z

Returning goalkeeper Lionel Letizi took the flak as Inverness Caledonian Thistle defeated Rangers for the first time

I think this is ridiculous to single out the goalie for this defeat, why not the midfield and forwards that should have produced 3 or 4 goals during the game, thats the way Rangers used to play and if it was 4-1 at the end people didn't point the finger at the goalie.

.... and allow me to ask this, why do club and country keep dropping Kris Boyd? I'd say he's pretty much earned his place up front and has a phenomenal record to boot.

Answers on a postcard...

No injury can hold me back....

2006-10-12T18:22:00.000Z

No sure how this happened considering I'm carrying the worst injury I've had in 10 years but I smashed my 10k record tonight.

Especially odd seeing as I had a run 3 days ago and there was no sign of improvement, that run was 10K in 51 minutes 46 seconds, and I felt like death afterwards, limping home thinking I wouldn't be able to run for weeks and fearing the retirement of my left knee.

Today I go out and manage 10K in 45 Minutes 55 seconds and felt fine afterwards, so I just kept running. Not much of a sign of an injury either.

Bizarre, but I'm happy with it. Now, a bit of hard work and I'll get it below 40 Minutes before christmas.

New Games

2006-10-11T23:45:00.000Z

Seeing as I've buggered my leg and serious running and football should be out of the question this last week I've been looking for other games.

First up was military kerplunk, unfortunatly I can't explain the rules incase I get in alot of trouble or incase I give ideas to other idiots capable of getting into just as much trouble.

Having decided military kerplunk was just too dangerous and should be saved for another day we tried the vhildhood classic Curby. Turns out Curby is just as dangerous when played whilst on guard and after a telling off Guard shift was extended by 9 hours.

Third up a game discovered over at Kimi's blog
, no arms pool. Looks like great fun, coming to a pun near you soon and probably gettig me barred from another pub near me soon.

Oh, and before I go today someone pointed out that if Football is to be handled like Boxing then Brazil were World champions until they were beaten by France in a competitive match, who were beaten by Italy in a competitive match, who were beaten by France in a competitive match who were gloriously beaten by Scotland at the weekend, making Scotland undisputed champions of the world. Well at least until today when that was taken off them by the Ukraine, but still, we were champions for a few days.

Erm, will turn things around soon

2006-10-10T14:46:00.000Z

So we had our coup for our football team, but we didnt really pick the best time, as we had to play 1st and 2nd in succesive weeks, meaning two defeats whereas the teams around us have mostly picked up points, putting us very much in danger of relegation, shit. On top of that I've now got shinsplints which should effectively stop me playing football and running for about 6 weeks, not sure if I could cope with that though.
