all-about-roaches

From above link. which I found interesting and informative:



Do cockroaches like beer?

Roaches do love beer. Why do you ask? Well they are drawn to the aroma of certain beer hops and brewing styles, along with the sugar in beer which is a natural give away. First you would want to take a jam jar or deep bowl with a rounded inside lip. Coat the inner lip with Vaseline. This is so the roaches won't be able to escape. The next step is to then put a slice of beer-soaked bread at the bottom. The cockroaches will be attracted by the smell of beer, but the Vaseline-coated lip will make it impossible for them to escape. You can then dispose of them however you see fit.

Did you see the video? It happens at 2-4 sec. What open space in the general direction the guy was running like a maniac lol? He kept running even when 9 had stopped and tried to rotate. The right defender was obstructing any potential run to that right direction . Only the back side of the attacker was uncovered and vulnerable for them. He should have ran towards the attacker's back to block that potential maneuver because it is much harder for him to do what you are thinking he would be doing to justify a run in that direction with such speed/urgency. The ball at 2-3 sec in the video is not going anywhere in particular left or right. The short hair defender would have an "easy" job on any run to the right side (all this slightly before the maneuver takes place i mean, not immediately after he tricked them) . If the blond guy blocks a move to the left and short dark hair a move to the right then the third long hair guy has to run to the middle if no other attacker is uncovered in scoring position (where he was running) to try to get there in case. No such attacker existed here. He was alone with 3. The blond guy was too late, the right guy was bluffed/surprised and the dark hair running maniac was going to nowhere land lol. He could be running where he was generally going to the right with a direction a little bit towards the center towards the attacker to block him with smaller speed , he was too fast towards a very distant location that 9 would never be able to reach that fast, hence his massive inertial reaction. He completely miscalculated proper direction to run so fast there.

I am not particularly critical of the defense in a major way, just thinking the long dark hair guy was going to an irrelevant point that would be even harder to score from.

No you gave the responses you did because the timing in the video is not watched carefully. See it again. Of course there is also the reason to troll me but that is another long term therapy project that we need to discuss one day lol.

I watched it very carefully. As a former keeper, only one of the defensemen made a mistake. The other two played it perfectly.

I didn't know you needed a new job in addition to the one you have. But congratulations, do you get a piece of the action so to speak? I hope the extra income comes in handy, should be good for Beer money at least.

No, you are just unwilling to miss a chance to disagree with me, thats all.

I am not alone in this criticism;


Here is what i found ;

"Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has taken to social networking site Twitter to make a joke about Manchester City defender Jason Denayer."


Jason Denayer is number #15 the dark long hair defender in question in the goal of Robson-Kanu (9).

http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2016/07/02...er-on-twitter/

"leigh griffiths
‏@Leighgriff09

Just seen the replay, where's Jason denayer running too? " (<- someone needs to tell this guy it's "to" not "too" lol , but it's ok he is a millionaire)

https://twitter.com/Leighgriff09/sta...rc=twsrc%5Etfw

PS: it's funny how all these guys play in premier league by the way (so many from both Wales- naturally but big teams- and especially Belgium in that match)

PS2: More chaos theory in action. I learned about this neolithic site because of this goal lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryn_Celli_Ddu

You managed to find other people unfamiliar with how to play defense. Congratulations.

Defenders rely on their fellow defensemen not overcommitting. The closest defender made a severe error that was unforgivable and unforeseeable.

A question I've been wondering about: What weight of lead, traveling at 90% speed of light, would destroy the Earth on impact?

It looked to me like the dude who recieved the ball would most likely try to quickly pass it to the teamate charging into the box (as seen from the aerial view in your second video). I think Denayer anticipated this pass and was headed to block the upcoming shot on goal.

Ooh nice question. I eagerly await masque's calculation. I'll bet at 90% speed of light, the mass is surprisingly small, like 10000kg or something with a direct hit.

Edit: new answer: 2.5 X 10^16 kg

You lot do realise they can't pick the ball up?

On the lead are we talking rest mass?

I think you mean of course to really destroy the Earth; which I think implies the lead mass being large enough to knock the earth out of its present orbit or so impact the planet to split or disgorge a large chunk of its mass. Which would destabilize the sphere to the point that it would careen out of orbit and probably fall into the sun. Something you are no doubt dreaming about.

When masque comes up with the calculation at 90% the speed of light a downgrade to a lesser velocity could be useful. When Zeno's space base and poker emporium is thus established on Ceres, I could aim a nice large cannon (or other appreciate device, missiles/rockets etc.) at earth and shoot a series of lead masses at it - thus fulfilling your dream Howard. A nominal fee to cover cost would be all I would require. The rest would be gratis.

* On further reflection, since Ceres is in the asteroid belt, it may be easier to simply alter the orbital course of some asteroids so that they will hit the earth. This may be a less arduous task than the above to destroy the beastly planet earth and rid the cosmos of its moronic inhabitants.

This is what i thought also initially to excuse this nowhere land movement but there is no such player appearing in the video in any view on the right side charging yet. Robson-Kanu is alone at that point as it was a very fast attack break. In any case if that was a concern he should have been moving towards the center and right not fully right.

I like how when Brian is "cornered" he goes on the attack to insult people now that play the game also. Of course a striker is not a defender by training and will not play as well if forced to think like a defender but they play the same game all the time and they see how others defend also (against him even) and indeed something is very off with the choice of Denayer here.


Basically Denayer moves mechanically to the right to do what a defender typically would be doing to cover the risk of sending the ball there to another. But there is no such person coming there. He simply behaved mechanically not rationally adapting at the actual risk moment.

Yes it is better said than done live but the fact remains he charged with substantial speed towards a direction he wasnt needed to be there so fast and left open the back of Robson-Kanu that was only one rotation away from shooting or moving towards the keeper and shooting as it happened.

The ball would be very hard to go where Denayer was moving because the right defender would prevent such easy pass of Robson-Kanu to himself (plus it would take some time) . So only a pass to another was the risk but nobody was going there to receive the ball yet (see it again and tell me who is?) so he effectively was placing himself out of defending anything.

Keepers like to have a clean view of the ball also so its not a great idea to be going in front of them making the ball harder to see so close but the moment was urgent and the important detail was to close the corridor in his back. Nobody thought to do that but its the obvious risk here. You do not have to imagine he will do a brilliant move to find a very clean shot, any move to rotate would be a risk leading to a shot. The brilliance is in making the shot clean by throwing them off and buying critical fractional second edge to move a bit further in also before shooting.

I finally got a offered a good job in a nice company, after three years of losing a good one.

Life will be good again. It's subject to ten weeks work experience, where I will work just for my dole, which began six weeks ago.
Thanks to a gov't initiative of providing training and work experience and giving employers an incentive to hire those who are long term unemployed. It could have turned out as exploitation but I got a lucky break. Most of the class did not get the work experience.

What's funny is that if there was a defensive triple team and the open attacker had scored the goal, Masque would probably be talking about how dumb it is to triple-team a player when there's a player wide open.

If you can't see the red shirt coming in at the 3-4 second mark of your video, then it's a really good thing you're not a soccer player.

Yes, Brian is a bastard, but you can actually see a teammate coming into play at the bottom left of the screen (stage left) who could easily receive a pass. I think Denayer would have seen him as well and that's probably where he was headed before the juke.
