Owners ‘furious’ at state of closed pub
North West Evening Mail On Monday, September 06, 2010
Click to read more...
AN award-winning community pub looks set to be closed for the immediate future.
The Greyhound Inn at Grizebeck was run by a committee of volunteers from January 2009 until the end of August this year.
The then manager Martin Barr had made an offer to buy the pub but failed to come up with the cash.
The Greyhound’s owners Dick and Christine Strike have now resumed the management of the pub.
Mrs Strike was furious with the condition of the bar, kitchen and living area and said she wishes the committee had never taken on the pub.
She said: 'We are trying to clean the place up – we are going to have to spend every waking minute doing this.
'There is no way we are serving food or bed and breakfast in here.
'I wish I’d never let them have it.' Mrs Strike said due to an upcoming operation to relieve spinal compression, Mr Strike would be unable to help in the pub.
She said: 'Dick wants to keep the bar open for a few locals but he won’t be able to do any bar work and we can’t afford to pay anyone.
'We will be shut for at least two weeks.' The committee which ran the pub say they are bewildered by Mrs Strike’s claims.
Mr Barr said the pub was left in a condition similar to how the committee took it on.
He said: 'That is rubbish, it is cleaner now than when we took it on.
'It is definitely usable – we had no major complaints from customers over the past 12 months.
'It’s sad it will be closed, I don’t want that and that’s the whole reason I got involved in the first place.' Ian Carruthers, vice-chairman of the committee said: 'We left the pub cleaner than they did – it’s definitely in a better state now than it was.
'It is a sorry situation.' First published at 13:04, Monday, 06 September 2010 Published by http://www.nwemail.co.uk Have your say Be the first to comment on this article!

Simple Ways to Increase Your Chances at Winning on Slot Machines
Associated Content On Monday, September 06, 2010
Click to read more...
Tips for Winning at the Slot Machine Online or at the Casino Donna Giles Is it possible to win money at playing the slot machines at a casino or on an internet casino? Well, the answer is yes, it is possible.
Slot machines, while easy to learn and fun to play, are primarily the only gambling game that doesn't require any skill.
First and foremost, it is imperative that you understand just how to play the particular slot machine that you are attempting to bid on.
Read and understand the "How to Play" instructions and start off at the lowest bid possible until you grow more accustomed to how the game is being played.
As your confidence in the game increases, so can your bidding amount increase.Secondly, have a set amount of money set aside that you plan to budget for gambling and stick with it.
It is more lucrative to play the highest threshold of coins on a slot machine to enable you to win the jackpot.
If not, it would be in your best interest to choose a slot machine that have fewer pay lines so you can still bet the maximum amount in order to win the jackpot.
Also, be aware of the highest progressive slot machines available and when they most recently pay out.
It is very wise to choose the slot machine that has not had a recent win.
A single pay line machine is far the wisest choice for those that want to maximize their gambling dollars.
This type of slot machine is best for those that like to gamble this way, in that the games on the machine require less coinage to bid and it can still leave you eligible to win the jackpot.
Another mistake people have made while they are playing the slot machines is to continuously play on the same machine that recently gave them a substantial payout.
There is no set timing for a slot machine to hit the jackpot and win you thousands of dollars.
Each and every slot machine runs on a RNG (Random Slot Generator) which continuously changes the outcome of every slot machine game several times per second.
Therefore, it is best to move on to another slot machine to maximize your chances of winning.Most casinos offer a Customer Club Card, much like supermarkets offer loyalty cards, so that you can accumulate points that can later be used for free items such as meals, merchandise, a room at the casino or bonus cash amounts for playing certain games over a set period of time.
The Customer Club Card is free and may even have a monetary bonus for signing up.
Lastly, have a set amount that you are going to use for gambling.
It is very easy to get sucked into going deeper and deeper into debt when you are trying to win back any money that you lost.
Remember the old saying, "Bet with your head, not over it".
The loss may be due to a lack of luck but there will still be a myriad of other times to come back to the casino or just play online at an internet casino to try your luck again.

200 Characters left Bingo USA Still Alive and Kicking About the Author (ArticlesBase SC #3192166) Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ - Bingo USA Still Alive and Kicking Ever since the crackdown of online bingo in the USA thanks partly to the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), some bingo sites have still managed to continue to not only operate within the USA but also take advantage of the situation and with the limited competition actually see their fortunes grow big time.
Two such online bingo rooms are the ones promoted by the bingo4affiliates network and are operated out of San Jose in Costa Rica and are 123 Bingo Online and Bingo Flash.
Amazingly enough, both brands are still able to cater to customers for the USA thanks to their ability to still accept deposits from both Visa and Master Card which has been a huge problem for other bingo USA sites to do so.
Since both sites are running on the same network, players can find 90 ball bingo as well as 75 ball bingo games on both brands meaning they don't restrict themselves to catering for only USA players but they also attract a large following out of continental Europe as well as the UK.
The players in Europe are predominantly 90 ball bingo enthusiasts and only play 75 ball bingo games as a side game.
Another great incentive offered by both brands is that they have a free no deposit required bonus set up which allows prospective bingo players the chance to check out the games on offer before they go ahead and make a deposit using their own money.

(ArticlesBase SC #3191418) Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ - Suggestions on playing bingo games People always want to have chances to spend their time with pleasure and profit, and online casino games just provide them a good chance and playing platform.
So the professional and effective gambling guide can bring gamblers much higher odds to let them win some profit and enjoy their happy time! Although it may be true that bingo is considered as being a game of chance, here are several ideas that can help you to improve your odds at being a winner when you playing online bingo.
Bingo games come in two main types.
Here we will talk about a variety of bingo referred to as 75 ball bingo and ways that you can improve your chances of making yourself a winner when it comes to getting those jackpots.
The game of 75 ball bingo provides you with one chance in 75 of getting your ball at the beginning of the game.
But first let's take a look at the way that 75 ball bingo is played.
Playing 75 ball bingo online begins with your receiving bingo cards or tickets that consist of 25 numbers that are randomly selected.
Numbers are called out one after the other during a game.
This continues until at last a line, full house or a particular pattern is achieved during play.
When you are playing bingo online, what this means is that you are provided with a number of opportunities at winning the jackpot before some other person does so.
Once a number is drawn it appears on the screen.
You are given the option on most sites of either checking your card by hand or employing a feature called auto-daub which will do this for you automatically.
Let us assume that the first number that is called is I 9.
This allows you to now presume the following.
You know that in the game of 75 ball bingo seven balls end with the number 9.
So if you have a 9 on your card, that means that there are 6 balls left ending with the number nine.
What this means is that the odds for you to get another 9 are less than for the other numbers.
And in addition to this, since 9 is an odd number, the chance that you will receive an odd numbered ball is further diminished since the number of balls with odd numbers has now been reduced.
A strategy for online bingo allows you the opportunity to consider the probabilities that one particular number will come up rather than another.
A Random Number Generator is used to control the hopper that appears on your screen, meaning that no set pattern exists for the next bingo numbers that will be called.
If you truly want to improve your chances of winning when playing online bingo, you will need to consider the bingo cards that you choose.
That means that if the numbers 1 or 5 were to appear on one of your online bingo cards that you chose, on the first row, with regard to probability you would be smart to not take that card even though it is still possible that these numbers could still be the bingo numbers that win.
Those people that did the best when playing online bingo are the ones that choose bingo cards with an even scattering of odd and even, and low and high numbers.
There are those who say that as an increasing number of bingo balls are drawn those numbers that remain in the bingo hopper will approach 38, but most see this as unproved and simply a bit of bingo gossip.
If you are careful about selecting your online bingo cards and choose them wisely, you may find yourself hitting jackpots while playing online bingo, much more frequently!If you are also a crazy online casino player,please come to our online casino site-www.56casino.com.

BC's high-stakes bet on online gambling
Globe and Mail On Saturday, September 04, 2010

It seems like a surefire bet for a government struggling with a flood of post-recession red ink the easy money of an online casino, tens of millions around the clock from eager gamblers.
No controversial taxes or spending cuts, just low overhead and a stream of cash, 24/7.
That lure has proved irresistible to British Columbia, the first but far from the last Canadian province to jump into the business of online casinos.
In just 12 years, online gambling has exploded into a $20-billion industry and millions of those dollars are coming from Canadians with high hopes and credit cards.
All governments need to do is lure those gamblers with promises of a safer alternative that keeps money in the province away from what they call illegal and offshore sites and theyll hit the jackpot.
But that jackpot will have huge and hidden costs, warns gambling expert Robert Williams, co-ordinator of the Alberta Gambling Research Institute at the University of Lethbridge.
He fears the sites will rely on people who would never have visited a private site but would be game to try a government-sanctioned one that they see as safer and more socially acceptable.
And he predicts they will eventually flee to more alluring offshore sites with better odds and incentives.
But the social costs of addiction will remain, outstripping any gambling revenue the province gets, he said.
It doesnt make any economic sense, and its going to cause serious problems.
Despite such worries, British Columbia has become the first jurisdiction in North America to roll the dice on a legal, government-run online casino, which relaunched last month after an initial security glitch.
Loto-Qubec is gearing up to launch an Internet gambling site this fall, and Ontarios electronic gamblers will be able to try their luck online by 2012.
The Atlantic Lottery Corporation is looking to expand its East Coast offerings, and in the coming months, the Nova Scotia government will decide whether to join the rush.
This week, PEIs finance minister came out in favour of making the move.
According to industry experts, the provinces will find the venture anything but a safe bet.
There is no way theyre going to compete, says John McMullan, a criminology professor at St.
Marys University who studies online gambling, and recently completed a study of 71 randomly chosen Internet poker sites.
Theyre dreaming if they think theyre going to take players away from those sites.
In its infancy, private online gambling was plagued by corruption and fraud, but it has evolved into a relatively well-organized, well-regulated and security-obsessed industry kept in check by watchdog sites, professional auditors and vigilant users.
Sites that cheat players are quickly rogued that is, exposed on player chat sites.
Most sites are offshore, but they are not illegal where theyre based, including Malta, Gibraltar, the Dutch Antilles, and Britain.
And there is domestic-based competition: an online gaming hub run from the Khanawake reserve in Quebec.
While there at least 2,000 poker sites worldwide, just two major operators, Poker Stars and Full Tilt Poker, own more than 60 percent of the market share.
According to Mr.
McMullan, the private sites lure gamblers by offering incentives that range from hefty loyalty bonuses to $300,000 cars to games with celebrity players.
By comparison, British Columbias government-run PlayNow site offers a free $10 token for signing up, a one-time gift of $100 in tokens for depositing at least the same amount, and a bonus bar that gives casino patrons a $5 token if they spend $5,000 on table games or $1,000 on slots.
A $100 bonus is peanuts.
Some of these sites are giving a thousand.
And there is already a large number of players who have established loyalties with existing brands, so the offshore private market has the advantage, said Mr.
McMullan, who adds that celebrities are also a draw on the existing sites.
I mean, you can go and play poker with Jason Alexander, or Mats Sundin.
Who are you going to play with on the B.C.
site the minister? Mr.
McMullan expects that PlayNow will also have trouble attracting and retaining one of the most lucrative groups of customers: slot machine players.
As is the case with most online sites, the odds of winning are published only as Return to Player percentages that reflect what will be paid out over hundreds of thousands of spins, rather than how much any individual player can expect to recoup.
(For example, if a thousand players each bet $1, and one of them wins $920 while the other 999 lose everything, the return to player, or RTP, is 92 percent.) On the new PlayNow website, the RTP levels for the slot machines mostly fall into the 92- to 94-per-cent range, which is consistent with land-based casinos, but a far cry from other online offerings.
They are significantly worse than the standard thats out there.
I would say 93 is the bottom for any online slot I have seen, said Eliot Jacobsen, a former math professor who runs Certified Fair Gambling, a California-based company that audits online gambling sites to make sure the RTP rates they advertise are accurate.
The slots that I am aware of average between 95 and 97, even up to 98.
I know people who wouldnt put out a product thats less than 97.
According to Mr.
Jacobson, those higher returns are necessary to attract and retain customers.
Real-life casinos have high overhead costs, as well as a limited number of machines and hours, but online sites allow gamblers to play longer and more frequently.
As a result, online gaming houses may not make much money from a particular patron, but they cash in on volume.
The number of rounds online as compared to land-based casinos would knock your socks off, said Mr.
Jacobson.
I have seen casinos that will get 10 million or more spins in a month on one of their online slot machines, because you can essentially have an unlimited number of people playing the games.
So the volume is extraordinary, and you want to drive player loyalty a lot more.
So if provincially run sites such as PlayNow cant attract existing Internet gamblers, who will make up its clientele? Mr.
Williams worries that when the overall pool of users grows, so does the number of addicts; and when those new Internet customers discover the better odds and incentives on private sites, theyll likely switch: their money leaves the province, but their problems, and the costs associated with them, stay behind.
The same thing occurred with Internet gambling in Sweden and the U.K., who also said, Lets try to capture this revenue and provide a safer product, recounts Mr.
Williams.
Those countries now have the highest rate of online gambling in the world.
They have also had a huge spike in the rate of problems associated with online gambling, and there is scant evidence that they have captured the revenue.
Even if they could get the money, experts estimate that 41 per cent of provincial gambling revenues are generated by problem gamblers and many consider online casinos the industry equivalent to crack cocaine because of their 24-hour, at-home availability and virtual feel.
PlayNow does offer responsible gambling measures, including warning customers when they have played more than 50 games and allowing them to exclude themselves from the site temporarily.
Still, experts say theres little evidence that those measures work especially with so many alternatives just a mouse click away.
If you are effective, the addicts just go to the 2,000 other sites where they dont have any limits on their behaviour, so youre caught between a rock and a hard place, says Mr.
Williams, who is especially concerned that the weekly transfer-in limit on PlayNow is $10,000 a week, which means a player could gamble away $500,000 in one year.
Lotteries are pretty innocuous because few people get addicted, and even bingo and horse racing arent that worrisome, continues Mr.
Williams.
Land-based casinos are more problematic, and slot machines are particularly problematic.
But online gambling is really indefensible in my view.
Online gambling by the numbers Estimated number of online gambling sites worldwide: 2,300 Number of gambling sites that make up 60 per cent of the online gaming market: 2 Estimated revenues generated annually: $20-billion Estimated percentage of gambling revenues generated by addicted gamblers: 41 How many times higher rates of addiction are for online gamblers than for land-based gamblers: 3 to 4 Estimated percentage of people who gamble online in Canada, where government-run sites are just beginning: 2 Estimated percentage of people who gamble online in Sweden and the UK, where government-run or regulated sites have operated for several years: 12 How much money you would have to spend on PlayNow.com table games to receive a $5 Bonus Bar token: $5,000 Number of provincial premiers who have publicly said they will oppose online gambling in their provinces: 1, Danny Williams of Newfoundland and Labrador Special to The Globe and Mail

Last updated at 09:49, Friday, 03 September 2010 INVEST in Cumbria, the county’s inward investment agency, is supporting the Golden Apples.
The agency works to help businesses and other bodies set up and expand in Cumbria, regenerating the county’s economic landscape and improving its prosperity.

That is why Invest in Cumbria wants to celebrate the work done to raise the aspirations and achievements of local young people and the efforts to provide high-quality education for all right here in the county.
John Grainger, managing director of Invest in Cumbria, said: “A skilled workforce is the lifeblood of any business.
“Without a relevant workforce they cannot grow and prosper, which is what Invest in Cumbria is all about.
“It is important to remember that high levels of education and training naturally result in higher salaries, which in turn improves career prospects and improves quality of life.
People, as well as business, have a vested interest in raising aspirations.
“It is often forgotten that higher salaries bring so much more to the economy, with workers ploughing their hard earned money into everything from homes and cars, to food, leisure and cultural activities.
“A skilled workforce is central to the economic sustainability and viability of Cumbria, just as it is everywhere else.†He added: “We have many successful entrepreneurs in this county, but we need a new generation to take the mantle and build a vibrant and successful Cumbria for their children.
“Our schools, colleges, university and training providers hold the key and we need to celebrate and encourage them to continue shaping an ambitious generation of young people.†First published at 09:14, Friday, 03 September 2010 Published by http://www.nwemail.co.uk SHARE THIS ARTICLE del.icio.us Digg Facebook Newsvine Reddit Stumbleupon Technorati More Barrow Shipyard stars in BBC documentary (44 comments) £3.5m Cumbria County Council blunder (41 comments) Barrow town centre revamp set to finish on time (49 comments) Zoo boss wants to bypass Dalton (37 comments) Is dog fouling a problem in your community?

The BECC partnership includes Energus at Lillyhall, where the awards will be handed out on November 17, as well as Gen II, Lakes College, University of Cumbria and the universities of Central Lancaster, Lancashire and Manchester.
Rob Rimmer, BECC programme director, said: “To celebrate achievements in education, skills acquisition, training and learning is something that will not only reward those directly involved, be they learners, teachers or trainers, but hopefully act as an inspiration to many others, young and old, to fulfil their potential.

Online Bingo Site Raises Money for Cancer

200 Characters left Related Questions Online Bingo Site Raises Money for Cancer About the Author (ArticlesBase SC #3182666) Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ - Online Bingo Site Raises Money for Cancer It's yet another indication coming from the world of online bingo and clearly shows that the members at the very popular UK room Mecca Bingo that play bingo online not only do so for winning but they also do it for the sake of charity.
During the month of May, members at Mecca Bingo had the opportunity to play the Marie Curie Cancer Care Bingo game, which saw all proceeds going to that specific charity.
For every £20 raised it funds one hour of Marie Curie Nursing care for terminally ill people in their own homes, so Mecca Bingo was extremely ecstatic when they managed to raise £12,000 for the Marie Curie Cancer Care.
In order to celebrate this achievement, Mecca Bingo picked up one lucky member to attend an all expenses VIP night at the Mecca Oldbury Club to present the cheque to Marie Curie.
That lucky player was Wendy Hill from Sutton Coldfield who was happy to say: 'When my other half, Jon, told me that I'd been contacted by Mecca Bingo and my name had been drawn to represent them at a charity event, I was stunned.
An all expenses paid night for four at Mecca Oldbury was a girl's dream come true - I didn't find out about the karaoke until later, which was just the icing on the cake.' She continued to say: 'As we readied ourselves for an evening of bingo, outfits were selected carefully and knowing that our picture would be taken, a visit to the hairdressers was a must! After much preparation, we arrived at Mecca Oldbury – it's very pink! We were greeted by Bingo Dave and the team and introduced to Marie Curie volunteers, Trevor and Eileen Hall, before being shown to our table, which was covered in balloons and bubbly.
We had pictures taken with Trevor and Eileen to mark the occasion, before sitting down to play bingo with our electronic boards.
Mecca Oldbury is so big – I was amazed! The Club has the usual bingo hall as well as a lounge area which was more relaxed.
The latter area is where our table was located and enabled us to have a chat whilst we were playing.
Oldbury had so many slot machines, the choice was amazing.' A very satisfied Wendy concluded by saying: 'The bingo soon came to an end with no main session winners on our table.
Jon, however did win the interval game and Bingo Dave won a line in the late session, the winnings of which he donated to Marie Curie Cancer Care – so that's £12,020 now raised! The evening was not over by any means, however, and we were soon given books and forms in order to select a song for the karaoke.
We also got to play a karaoke version of bingo where I won an Ethch-a-Sketch of all things and some Mecca Bingo vouchers, which were promptly spent on Saturday at our local Kingstanding Club.
The evening was great.

GREEK DRAFT LEGISLATION ON INTERNET GAMBLING
Recent Poker On Thursday, September 02, 2010
Click to read more...
Proposed regulatory regime similar to other European nations The Greek government, perhaps motivated by the nation's severe economic problems and the need to raise tax revenues, is pressing ahead with remarkable speed in its plans to specifically legalise and regulate online gambling .
Making the news pages in the Greek media is the release of the first draft of the proposed legislation, which judging by the reports, offers little that is new, following the general course set by other European nations such as France, Denmark and Italy.
The proposal, which will be the subject of political debate in parliament this (September) month, includes provisions which require providers of sports betting, internet poker or online casino services to residents of Greece acquire licensing, setting up servers and transactional processing in-country and operating under a Greek domain name.
Punitive and precautionary measures envisaged include ISP blocking of foreign and unlicensed websites, and a requirement that Greek financial institutions interrupt any 'illegal' online gambling transactions with Greek citizens.
Licensing remains open to argument in the Greek parliament, with the draft suggesting licenses of five year duration but leaving the strategic decision to the politicians, which could see a perpetuation of the OPAP monopoly, or a more open and competitive system, albeit with regulatory restrictions.
A target date for implementation of May 2011 is being considered.
The gambling market in Greece is estimated to be worth about Euro 5 billion in taxable revenues.
In related news, the Spanish Official State Gazette has published the Betting and Gaming Act of the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands, which establishes a new regulatory framework for Internet gambling .
The new law was passed unanimously by the Parliament of the Canary Islands, repealing the previous restrictive 1999 Act, and provides that the opening of bingo in the Canary Islands must be subject to a public tender along with casinos, horse tracks, dog tracks and pelota courts.
Licenses will have a 10 year duration.
The new legislation extends the regulatory framework for interactive television and Internet betting, which make up more than 15 percent of the gaming revenue in the Canaries, and is valued at Euro 1.6 billion.
This is more than 3.5 percent of regional GDP.
And in Hungary, the newspaper Nepszava reports that national gambling association officials are increasingly concerned at the activities of foreign online gambling operators in the country, and have called on government to introduce regulation that would keep internet gambling under the control of the state, stopping the outflow of revenues to offshore companies.
Although under current regulations it is not illegal to advertise internet gambling services in Hungary, residents of the country are not permitted to gamble online, but many thousands do so regardless.
The gambling association wants more effective regulations against such services, which they claim could keep up to $66.8 million in Hungary.
International gambling companies, many of which are registered in tax havens, pay their taxes in their 'home country', so Hungarian gamblers' money contributes to that country's budget, the association points out.
