Looks to me like a terrorist attack or botched hijacking. Possibly the world's safest plane, operated by an well respected airliner with a good safety record vanishes in thin air? People travelling on stolen passports? Muffled conversations heard (and nothing else) the last time other pilots communi...

Have the bands Dropkick Murphys or Flogging Molly, etc. actually have any Irish band-members at all? I guess it's just as bad as Australian country singers all singing with a south western American accent. If you qualify as Irish because your great-grandmother once shagged an Irish bloke, everyone i...

Fantastic article and very telling. Probably belongs in the steroids-HGH thread though.

The thing with these sort of studies is that while they obviously have some benefit for those interested in health and nutrition it's the normies who will be the problem. So while I'm at work eating steamed veges and chicken breasts, my colleagues will tell me how I wont live very long while they a...

It's 90% sure it's in there. If it's not, it's part of some other Michael Mosley health-related docco. There are a lot of questions to be asked about protein intake, but as someone who has always valued a high-protein intake, it has raised an eyebrow at the very least. I would assume protein powders...

Haha. I just came to this thread to post that link.

What an arse-kicking.

I hope Towny watches it.

I've not read it all yet ... Total scaremongering. Okay ... well you seem to have your mind made up anyway. The first I heard of this was in the BBC documentary "East Fast and Live Longer" (I think it was released 2012 or early 2013). They found a strong connection between cellular aging and protei...

:roll: Dude... yeah it's me. Would also be interested in some other cause-and-effect related questions r.e. that study. For example, is it actually the protein doing the damage? or is it that on average, a person on a high-protein diet doesn't eat as much fiber and vegetables? Is it because a person...

The study found those eating a high-protein diet were four times more likely to die of cancer or diabetes and nearly twice as likely to die from any cause in the following 18 years.

So lads, as I'm now back at rugby does anyone have any rugby specific training programmes? I'm training Thursdays, playing Saturdays and gym Sundays and Tuesdays so dropped one gym session to fit in rugby. I have a few documents of training programs, especially speed and conditioning drills if you ...

I've been reading a little about trans fats recently and the best ways to avoid them. Seems the basics is just not to eat processed junk food or pastries. However, I read in a few places that ground beef is one significant source of trans fat. How is that? I guess they're talking about very low qual...

I have no doubt that's true, but I doubt it's got anything to with him being an over-compensating boorish twat of a human being.

fatcat: it's his personality. He comes across as a bully whose only way to get laughs is by pulling down everyone else around him down, even if it's in jest. That's the only thing he's "good" at. He's comes across as the type of bloke you go to the bar with, and if you meet a couple of pretty girls ...

I must admit Clarkson is entertaining in an annoying way. He's the kind of bloke I'd like to punch in the face and then have a beer with.

Clarkson really sounds like a wit kant of a bloke doesn't he? A bully and proud of it. Indeed it is almost as if he has a caricature persona for the media. Whatever his game is, he he comes across like a wit kant. I've always seen him as a fat, old, wheezing bully. And for some reason a closet gay ...

After playing footie last night and knowing that I had squat in the morning I felt it imperative to re-fuel properly. I ate a large pizza and a chicken kiev. TBF, I did throw a tin of tuna on the pizza. Weighed in a bit heavier today! That's the dream but I just get fat, unmotivated and end up givi...

I suspect fish oil would be a better option than flax.

Training to failure is probably what fries your legs. You can work up to 80-90% for an appropriate number of reps without going to failure. Do like 5 sets of 5-3-2-2-1 or something, a good breather in between. Shouldn't kill you too much afterwards. Certainly after you've done it for a couple of we...

I always thought one of the uncles in the end-skit of Eddie Murphy RAW looked and acted a lot like Samuel L Jackson, but had assumed he would have been too young at that time for that role. Only a couple of days ago I discovered it was actually him. http://jrbang.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/eddie-mu...

I know it's not all about being ripped or even very muscular. Point was only that steroids seem to be pretty widely used for better or worse. Yeah, I'm actually quite a fan of Pudzianowski, but he should stick to strongman where they turn a blind eye to steroid use. I don't care about them being dop...

TRT? FFS that sport is so full of blatant roiders I just assumed they turned a blind eye to it. The irony is that the people who were on TRT were actually getting tested more.

So, the killers of the soldier just got life and 45 (I think), for murder and this guy gets 4.5. Different crimes in terms of pre-meditation and motive, same crime in terms of someone being dead.

It's the act of a coward, pure and simple. The whole idea is to strike when the victim is not expecting in order to prevent any retaliation.
