    I give up. Shouldn't he at least pretend he isn't paid by the Russians? He couldn't crawl further up Putin's arse if he tried.

    I think the fact that he quite blatantly a Putin henchman is what will be his eventual undoing rather that his other manifest character flaws.

    "Turns out doctors (male) are three times more likely to kill themselves than the average man. No one is quite sure why, though various theories are posited (access to lethal drugs etc)

    Very curious. I wonder if proximity to death itself makes death seem more "acceptable"?"

    OK, just to continue this happy train of Christmas thought for a while.

    Has there ever been a study that breaks down suicides in the medical profession by specialisation? I would guess that some specialities (e.g. eye doctors, dermatologists) have a much lower rate than others (e.g. General Practitioners) but oncologists come out somewhere in the top end of the table.

    I've been told (never seen stats) that vets and dentists are right at the top of the suicide stakes.

    Vets become emotionally involved with their patients. Dentists because it's such a miserable job staring at people's teeth all day

    Morning all, and Happy Christmas Eve! Rather depressing overnight thread, sympathies to those who have had a worse 2016 than most of us.

    Why bookies love novelty bets, exhibit #42
    Song that's been number one for the last six weeks holds on to claim the Christmas No1 slot, with all the new songs nowhere and the 'Christmas' songs, dominated by all the old ones.

    I don't get the impression that Putin is a good loser himself.
