Is it safe to sell diamonds online?

Maybe you have seen the commercials for selling gold and getting checks in the mail. There are now many websites and companies ready to take your orders with most of them begin legitmate with a few that maybe are not so much trustable. 

In the past year this trend is continuining. Now you can sell your silver online, through the phone and mail it out, wait and get another check in the mail. For some people that are needing some money this is something worth considering.

Now selling diamonds online is the new trend and why not. Gold and precious metals have been increasing in value over the past 5 years but diamonds are still the pinnacle for jewelery and value. The diamond business is now starting to accelerate just like gold and some might even consider diamonds a currency on it's own.

So is it safe to sell diamonds online?

Only if you have  a trusted website. It can be difficult to assess a site or company for reliability and trustability. We have tried out a few sites and we have found one where we trust and recommend that you can sell your diamonds here at wpdiamonds.com. For any site you want to do research to find out what other people have to say and they are good. We tried it ourselves and we had one diamond expert assess one of our diamonds and we got a good return for what the diamond was worth. At first we were nervous but we read the reviews and so far only good comments. You can try out other sites but if something isn't broken don't fix it and stick with what works. 

Other items you can sell on the site are loose diamonds, quality polished diamonds as well as engagement rings which some people never want to sell but if your ring is worth over $5000 then you are looking at a car here that might be better off towards investing into the family. 

Recommended websites for betting on Euro 2012

The Euro 2012 football tournament begins on June 8th with the first game of the tournament with Poland vs Greece followed by Russia vs Czech Republic.  This tournament looks to be a tight one with our opinion of 4 strong contenders to win this year. Those 4 are Spain, Netherlands, Germany and England. Perhaps Portugal has been left off of the list but they struggled to qualify and nobody knows if Cristiano Ronaldo will show up to play in the tournament. His last efforts at the World Cup 2010 saw him jogging on the pitch and crying like a baby when he was fouled or brushed lightly trying to induce a penalty or perhaps a yellow card. Certainly the opposite of the aspiring player in 2004 when he helped Portugal get to the finals.

That said there are many sportsbooks you can place bets on. We have 3 sites we recommend to provide useful information and sometimes exclusive bonuses to make the most out of Euro 2012.

e-sportbets.org

e-sportbets.org is all about football and betting. They cover all significant tournaments in football as well as leagues around the world but mainly focusing on Europe and the United Kingdom. 

Beteuro2012.org

beteuro2012.org is a site created by the Dealer Dan network. This site focuses just on the tournament for 2012 and nothing else. They have listed odds for the winners and qualifiers plus have tips.

Beteuro2012 Blogspot

beteuro2012.blogspot.ca is another site focused solely on the Euro 2012 tournament but did throw in a cheeky article on the champions league final between Chelsea FC and Bayern Munich. This site is mainly about information and odds on the teams as well as covering the top goal scorer of Euro 2012.

You can catch the entire tournament at the UEFA's dedicated website featuring all the matches, highlights and information:

Bet Kentucky Derby Odds

The Kentucky Derby is a prestigous horse race that happens only once a year and is over in about 2 minutes which is why they say it's the fastest 2 minutes in sports. What makes horse racing such a culture on it's own probably has more to do with sportsbetting. That is, the races are not as much fun when you are not betting on it.

Betting on the Kentucky Derby is something that many fans are getting used to and watching the race without money on the line just means it is almost not worth watching at all. Why do you think newspapers and media always mention the odds? The odds are important because they are calculated by sportsbooks.

2 sportsbooks we recommend for betting that accept players in USA, Canada and worldwide are BetOnline and Intertops. Both books offer signup bonuses to boost your bankroll.

Sebastian Vettel poor start to 2012 F1 season

Sebastian vettel is a German formula-1 racing driver, currently driving for Red Bull racing team. He is the youngest driver to win world Formula-1 championship. He has won the championship twice in a row in 2010 and 2011. His first race was in 2007 at United States grand prix, first win was in 2008 Italian grand prix and last win was in 2011 Indian grand prix.

In 2011 he got the championship with 392 points. In his career he played 83 races, won 21 races and has career points 791. In this season till now he played 2 races but no success yet he got 18 points with the 6th place in the ranking. In last month’s race in Malaysian Grand Prix there was a collision between him and the Indian racer Narain Karthikeyan. After the collision the reaction of vettel was most shocking part. He branded Karthikeyan as an “Idiot”, which made the situation more critical. It meant that for the first time in 27 races Vettel finished a grand prix but failed to pick up a point. Karthikeyan also replied Vettel as “a cry baby” and unprofessional.

But then Vettel said this reaction was “part of sport”. He has spoken to the German Newspaper Sport Bild that he lost the 4th place so it was obviously disappointing. And some time the emotion can blast out so there was nothing to ashamed about.

In the Collision Vettel suffered a puncture and brake damage. He said about that “lose the race how I did is really frustrating. Some people need to look more where they are going.” Narain Karthikeyan has been penalized 20 seconds in the Malaysian Grand Prix. Karthikeyan’s penalty relegates him to last behind team mate Pedro de la Rosa.

In this season till now he already played in Australian Grand prix there he finished as second. But in Malaysian grand prix he finished as 11th due to the collision with Karthikeyan this made him so angry that he could not control his emotion and just used a wrong word against his opponent. But he feel no sorry for that that’s why he was criticized by some other players.

Betting Tips

Pick Kentucky to win 1.31 the game as they are a focused team that beat a more impressive Louisville team as the winner of this game is essentially the champion. No respect to Kansas but on paper they don't stack up as well against a team like Kentucky that seems poised to win the title after a disappointing tournament last year. 

Pick score under 137.5 points. Kentucky can score a lot of points and Kansas as well but championship games usually don't get this high and as a general rule, always bet under. 

Bet Kentucky spread -6. This is a tough bet and it is up to you to decide if you think Kentucky is going to win by more than 6 points. Normally these are not the best bets to take but 2 uncertainties is if Kentucky can dominate the game and usually and historically NCAA mens title games are a lot closer. 

UFC 149 announced for Calgary, Alberta, Canada

UFC 149 Calgary debut to be confirmed on Wednesday

The Ultimate Fighting Championship is due to bring it’s unique brand of Mixed Martial Arts to Calgary, Alberta for the first time, expected to be on July 21.  It will be the first return to Canada since 2011, while the largest ever crowd for a UFC event attended UFC 129 in Toronto, back in April 2011.

The event will take place at the Scotiabank Saddledome, and is expected to be a 20,000 capacity sell-out, after the successes of previous Canadian events.

Speaking about these fans, and the plans for the event, director of Canadiran operations for UFC, Tom Wright, said: “We see our pay-per-view numbers. We know how many fans have travelled to Vancouver from Alberta. We know how many fans travelled to Toronto, actually, for UFC 129 from Alberta. There are strong (athletic) commissions in place, in Edmonton and Calgary. We’ve got good relationships in both those cities. And, frankly, those are two places we’ll look.”

The UFC continues to press on with its expansion plans into Canada.  With the popularity of MMA North of the border ensuring high crowds - including the record 55,724 for UFC 129 - the events are big business for the UFC.

With the event set to feature a big name title showdown, there has been speculation over who the possible fighters could be.  One likely possibility is a lightweight showdown between title holder Benson Henderson and Anthony Pettis, both of whom last fought at UFC 144 in Japan.  Pettis’ trainer believes it would be the perfect time and place for the fight.

The other option is a title bout for the featherweight belt, after Jose Aldo retained his title in his homeland, Brazil, back in January.

In addition to UFC 149, the organisation is looking likely to stage two more events in Canada in the second half of 2012 - likely to be in Toronto and Montreal.  With expansion plans gathering pace, the return of Canadian welterweight champion Georges St-Peirre from injury would be the perfect fight, with Wright saying, “I will always lobby for Georges to fight in his home country.”

Formula 1 2012

This season in Formula 1 racing in 2012 expects to be the most exciting yet.  Many of the drivers all have a strong skill set and the Reb Bull Racing team won't have their exhaust blown diffuser system to rely on which saw Sebastian Vettel win most of the polls last year to dominate the season. 

There are 6 world champions this season, the most ever. The new drivers that are arriving on the scenes are very impressive and it is not just your typical filler drivers. The gap between the best and the newcomers is so narrow that it seems any of these new guys has a realistic chance of winning some races. Just try these names on for size: Romain Grosjean, Bruno Senna, Nico Rosberg and Paul di Resta.

Just listen to this roll call of F1 champions: Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Kimi Raikkonen, Fernando Alonso and Michael Schumacher.

Going to the races

Going to the races is a great way to meet more F1 fans and lets be honest it is certainly a party no matter how you look at it. To be able to see and hear the cars in person is truly a unique experience. When you see the cars live for the first time you will think that watching them on TV makes them appear slower than how fast they go. The sound is also mind boggling and a bit piercing of the ears so it is recommended you wear ear plugs or at least buy some head gear to cover your ears properly.

F1 news and betting

Trust me, the races are more exciting when you have money on the line and you really really want your drivers to win. You can bet on almost anything from winning the title for the drivers, constructors championship, bet on the individual races including first to retire, winner of the pole position, podium finishes and to win the race. What is more exciting is head to head matchups where you have 2 somewhat equal drivers and see who wins the battle of the two. An example would be Nico Rosberg against Michael Schumacher.

Funniest banned commercials - Top 5

After spending hours of researching watching youtube videos to find the funniest banned commercials we finally produced our Top 5. Many we had to leave out but remember hours of time research went into this. 

1. Skittles Commercial just not right for television

 

The production of this video looks too well done and not something a bunch of amateurs would put together. A lot of time and money went into making this which means it was probably the indirect results of Skittles paying a viral marketing company to produce something that people would share. Sure enough this video is getting a lot of comments and views. Well done either way.

2. Funny banned condom ad that should be on TV

 

Nothing wrong with this ad so who knows why it was banned on TV. We won't say what the commercial is about since it will give it away but it is fairly obvious. Use condoms!

3. More banned condom ads

 

Condoms are always a popular topic and you can imagine that many commercials get produced and are banned before they get a chance to make it on TV.

4. Bill Clinton voodoo commercial banned

 

This is banned for obvious reasons but it doesn't mean it isn't hillarious!

5. Learn English banned commercial

 

This is banned for obvious reasons. It was a nice attempt to prove a point to learn English but no way this commercial makes it on any tv station especially in Europe.

Best of Whitney Houston Songs

Today there is good news and bad news. The bad news: Whitney Houston dies at the young age of 48. The good news if there is anything possible from such a horrible event is that people might talk about the negative stuff surrounding her life but the good is that she leaves behind a voice the world can always appreciate. It is because of this we will celebrate the life and remember the Best of Whitney Houston by sharing her music.

Her music has influenced and affected so many lives that when people will think of Whitney Houston they will eventually forget about her troubled past with drug abuse and they will remember her music. The world could use more of her music but she simply left the best behind and her powerful voice is something that nobody knows will ever be found again. There simply wasn't anything like it. 

 

Whitney Houston has sold 55 million albums worldwide. She has also won the most awards by a female act collecting 415 awards and surely she will get a few more after.

RIP Whitney Houston!

Whitney Houston dies

Breaking news as Whitney Houston is dead. She had a lot fans around the world and used to be a super star. Unfortunately she died of overdose and all you can say is she definitely picked the wrong guy in Bobby Brown. 

It is a really sad way for her to leave us but at least she will always be remembered for her singing and she leaves behind a lot of beautiful songs. In a short period of time people will forget the sad way in which she left and all her personal problems. Whitney Houston is someone everyone can forgive.

Read our Best of Whitney Houston songs tribute showcasing a few of her songs that show how powerful and moving her voice is. Her lovely voice will always inspire and move people.

Rest in Peace Whitney. We will always love you!

Storied drug problems

Whitney was long rumored to have many drug problems including cocaine. She never seemed like the type of girl that could ever do such a thing.

Worst Super Bowl commercials ever

Sometimes the Super Bowl brings out the worst in TV. Either commercials are funny and worth talking about or they fall into the category of worst Super Bowl commercials ever. This year there were some horrible commercials and we also have some ones in the past that were very uninspiring and if anything made you want to hate the brand even more.  Most companies lose money on these ad sports because they pay a lot of money and rarely do they get the ROI they are hoping for. 

Welcome to the 2012 official worst shittiest super bowl ad and possibly of all time. 

 

Honda make great cars but they tried to revive a cult classic movie Ferris Bueller's day off and do a remake. Well the humor is just very bland and not very inspiring at all. It turns so cheesy that you notice that the commercial is really an ad and it is too much of a shill for Honda. Yes that is the purpose of the commercial but a good commercial makes you enjoy it and to respect the brand. Super Bowl commercial fail!

Stay tuned in as we add more commercials after the Super Bowl half time. 

Superbowl Betting Preview

The SuperBowl is on Feb 5th and it is a rematch of the SuperBowl 4 years ago featuring the New England Patriots versus the New York Giants. This SuperBowl is going to be the most bet on football event of all time. 

Years ago online sportsbooks took a serious beating when it came to betting on the event. The New England Patriots were given 13.5 points by the bookmakers which for some sharp bettors it was a nice spread offered. The Patriots went into that game undefeated while the Giants struggled to get into the playoffs but went in on a hot streak while the Pats nearly lost a few games and looked like they were about to eventually lose one. 

The final result was shocking and we have one video that sums up everything that happened in that game. The public felt that the Patriots were too dominating in the season and against Eli Manning, an unproven quarterback, that the Giants really had no chance. Beating the spread was a double payout and the win was about 4 to 5 times payout as well with maybe a 10% or 20% profit if you bet on New England. 

 

 

The best play of the game?

Tyree catches a pass on his helmet with maximum coverage and Eli Manning was nearly sacked. Leading up to that play he nearly was picked up a few times and nearly fumbled as well. Many thought that Tom Brady was too strong of a QB while Eli was destined to a career in the shadows of his brother Peyton Manning. 

The good news is for US players who want to bet on the game there are many bonuses at Intertops available. They also have a $200 free bet if you wager $1000 from now until Feb 5th.

Bet on Tim Tebow vs New England and betting tips

Let the haters hate all they want. If you have been betting on the Denver Broncos when Tim Tebow has been the starting quarterback you have probably accumulated a lot of money this year. Against the Pittsburgh Steelers the Broncos were underdogs on paper. However Tebow has been winning games and the Steelers went into that game beaten up but still a quality football team none the less.

To date betting on Tim Tebow has been money in the bank. Against the experienced Tom Brady and the New England Patriots the odds are more against them but it will make any bets on Tim Tebow more interesting as he is pulling in more fans every week and more believers.

Bet on Tim Tebow & betting tips

Various sportsbooks have different prices on the game and as the game approaches this will change quickly. 

At Intertops sportsbook they have the Broncos and Patriots listed as the following:

Broncos 6.50
Patriots 1.13 

Broncos (+13.5) 1.91
Patriots (-13.5) 1.91

Bet $100 on the Broncos for the win and you can win $650! This is a great price on a team that maybe isn't the favorite but if you believe Tebow is the real deal then this price is a steal. Another good bet is covering the spread of 13.5 points for the Broncos

Tebow vs Brady

What a great matchup, the most popular NFL player today is Tim Tebow going up against one of the most accomplished and respected quarterbacks of all time in Tom Brady.  

Canada Russia semifinal matchup World Junior Hockey 2012

Canada takes on another enemy in team Russia in the semifinal game with the winner playing for Gold and the losers playing for bronze. The other semi game is Sweden versus Finland and no matter who ends up in the final it will be 2 strong teams that deserve it and it should be very entertaining hockey.

Canada has made it to the gold medal game many times and has nearly put together a string of 10 straight gold medal games in the last 10 years while winning 5. Last year Canada lost the gold to the Russians in the 3rd period. Canada was up 3-0 after 2 periods then the wheels just fell off and the Russians poured it on to score 5 third period goals and shock the Canadian fans as the team played perfectly up until that last period.

Hopefully we dont see a repeat of the 1987 Canada Russia brawl.

 

NBA is back & tipster advice

The NBA is finally back although the season would be far more exciting if Mark Cuban and David Stern didn't fuck up the Chris Paul trade to the Lakers. It is nice to have the NBA back to bet on but people have to wonder if it is time for David Stern to exit the league as commissioner.

NBA is Back

The teams everyone will be talking about for the 2012 season will be the new look LA Clippers, an even strong Dallas Mavericks, a matured and stronger Chicago Bulls, the useless Miami Hate (Heat) and the weakened LA Lakers. The Lakers were supposed to be one of 4 super teams but Mark Cuban and David Stern teamed up to void the trade and steal Lamar Odom for next to nothing, well done boys. At least the LA Clippers will make for an entertaining season.

Tipster Advice

I have recently been looking for NBA tipsters with a proven track record so I can try to make some extra money this season. I used to visit a few sites that had free tips but their track records were not the best. So I found a few NBA tipsters that charge money for their tips and the costs were all over the place. I had to ask friends which ones they use and I have at least one worth recommending. If you know of a good tipster please submit a comment. 

NBAtips.net

2010/2011 record: 238-187
$40 season pass or
$12/month payable by Paypal.

They have computer generated tips and a consistent record of winning. I don't really like the WNBA but my friends have used their picks and made good money. Personally I'd rather bet on games I like to watch and can find.  

There are other tipsters like docsports but it costs $29/day which I can't really expect to dish out this kind of money on a daily basis!

European Debt Problems Continue to Fester

European Debt Problems Continue to Fester

Stock markets around the world have been held hostage in recent months over the ongoing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, fearing that a disjointed European Union will fail to unite to stop the bleeding before a cascade of defaults and bankruptcies threaten to take down the entire world economic system.

The focus of this entire crisis has centered around Greece, where ballooning budget deficits have threatened to bankrupt the nation. As investors began to question the ability of the Greek government to pay off its obligations, interest rates skyrocketed, thereby burdening Greece with ever higher interest payments.

It soon became apparent that Greece was not going to be able to survive under the burdensome debt load. Even worse, the worries concerning Greece were spreading to other nations in southern Europe, especially in Italy where rising budge tensions eventually forced out their former prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi.

With fears of contagion quickly developing, the European Union has attempted to wall off Greece from the rest of Europe in the hopes of stopping a crisis before it spirals out of control. However, this has been much easier said than done. The more stable European nations, especially Germany and France, have been squabbling about the logistics of a bailout and the amount of money needed to properly fix the problem.

Although the European Union created the European Financial Stability Facility to address this problem, there are still fears among many economist and government leaders that the various European countries have not adequately funded it.

Much of the debate is spent trying to figure out how the pain will be distributed among the various interested parties. Countries like Germany want the debt-ridden countries to adopt tougher austerity measures in order to reduce budget deficits, but countries like Greece are reluctant to reduce spending at a time when their economy is have a difficult time recovering from a recession.

Alternatively, Greece wants their bondholders to take a bigger haircut, meaning they would get a smaller return than previously expected. Indeed, private bondholders, including many European banks, have already accepted a 50 percent haircut on their holdings. However, it remains to be determined whether it will be enough.

Business Android Apps

If you have an android phone you'll want to check out some cool apps in the android market place. Just go to the category of Business and you'll see a screen showing Top Paid and Top Free apps.

Starting with Top Free Apps

Documents to Go: Helps you carry all your excel and word documents. You will want to upgrade to the paid version for full functionality.

OpenOffice: If you don't like Microsoft you can use openoffice documents which is free. The only downside is you cannot open docx or xlsx files which you need Microsofts version. Most people don't use this anyways.

Box: This is a cool cloud storage hosting program. Great for working with clients. Also if you need clients to upload large files to you and don't want to do it through email use Box, also known as box.net and get the job done the best way.

Skype: You need this for your tablet or mobile phones. Important for messaging, video conferencing and screensharing.

Facebook: Great business app as long as you don't waste time on facebook. Also great app to use for conferences when all else fails.

LinkedIn: Another must have app for business men. This is also a useful messaging service.

Astrid Tasks: Get your tasks done with this app. The only downside is this app is too dark, on the upside maybe it saves more power.

Remember the Milk: Same thing as Astrid just different company for doing the same thing, marking down your to do lists and getting things done, as in GTD. This app is far easier on the eyes but they used to charge money to make it useful but they have since gone back on their deal so you can still use it functionally for free.

Black Friday Shopping Fights

Although nobody should be laughing when you see people fighting you can't help but do it when you see all the crazy videos of people fighting over Black Friday. What has turned into a somewhat religous day for many shoppers, it certainly isn't liked by everyone as tempers flare and people fight over anything from the last items for sale to being in line. 

We posted a video days ago showing one clip but after we started looking we found so many videos of black friday shopping fights. It was both sickening yet entertaining as I had to put them on my facebook for everyone else to laugh. 

Is an xbox 360 worth fighting over? Hell yeah! Just incredible that people get this rotten.

This next video is crazy that these people just go on pure rampage mode. Who knows how many people get injured every year for this stuff.
