This is the list of Frequently Asked Questions about Chicken Scheme. If you have a question not answered here, feel free to post to the chicken-users mailing list; if you consider your question general enough, feel free to add it to this list.
Why yet another Scheme implementation?
Since Scheme is a relatively simple language, a large number of implementations exist and each has its specific advantages and disadvantages. Some are fast, some provide a rich programming environment. Some are free, others are tailored to specific domains, and so on. The reasons for the existance of CHICKEN are:
- CHICKEN is portable because it generates C code that runs on a large number of platforms.
- CHICKEN is extendable, since its code generation scheme and runtime system/garbage collector fits neatly into a C environment.
- CHICKEN is free and can be freely distributed, including its source code.
- CHICKEN offers better performance than nearly all interpreter based implementations, but still provides full Scheme semantics.
- As far as we know, CHICKEN is the first implementation of Scheme that uses Henry Baker's Cheney on the M.T.A concept.
What should I do if I find a bug?
Send e-mail to felix@@call-with-current-continuation.org with some hints about the problem, like version/build of the compiler, platform, system configuration, code that causes the bug, etc.
Why are values defined with define-foreign-variable or define-constant or define-inline not seen outside of the containing source file?
Accesses to foreign variables are translated directly into C constructs that access the variable, so the Scheme name given to that variable does only exist during compile-time. The same goes for constant- and inline-definitions: The name is only there to tell the compiler that this reference is to be replaced with the actual value.
How does cond-expand know which features are registered in used units?
Each unit used via (declare (uses ...)) is registered as a feature and so a symbol with the unit-name can be tested by cond-expand during macro-expansion-time. Features registered using the register-feature! procedure are only available during run-time of the compiled file. You can use the eval-when form to register features at compile time.
Why are constants defined by define-constant not honoured in case constructs?
case expands into a cascaded if expression, where the first item in each arm is treated as a quoted list. So the case macro can not infer wether a symbol is to be treated as a constant-name (defined via define-constant) or a literal symbol.
How can I enable case sensitive reading/writing in user code?
To enable the read procedure to read symbols and identifiers case sensitive, you can set the parameter case-sensitivity to #t.
How can I change match-error-control during compilation?
Use eval-when, like this:
(eval-when (compile)
(match-error-control #:unspecified) )
Why doesn't CHICKEN support the full numeric tower by default?
The short answer:
% chicken-setup numbers
% csi -q
#;1> (use numbers)
The long answer:
There are a number of reasons for this:
- For most applications of Scheme fixnums (exact word-sized integers) and flonums (64-bit floating-point numbers) are more than sufficient;
- Interfacing to C is simpler;
- Dispatching of arithmetic operations is more efficient.
There is an extension based on the GNU Multiprecision Package that implements most of the full numeric tower, see http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/eggs/numbers.html.
How can I specialize a generic function method to match instances of every class?
Specializing a method on <object> doesn't work on primitive data objects like numbers, strings, etc. so for example
(define-method (foo (x <my-class>)) ...) (define-method (foo (x <object>)) ...) (foo 123)
will signal an error, because to applicable method can be found. To specialize a method for primitive objects, use <top>:
(define-method (foo (x <top>)) ...)
Does CHICKEN support native threads?
Currently native threads are not supported. The runtime system is not reentrant, and the garbage-collection algorithm would be made much more complicated, since the location of every object (whether it is allocated on the stack or on the heap or completely outside the GC-able data space) has to be checked - this would be rather complex and inefficient in a situation where multiple threads are involved.
Platform specific
How do I generate a DLL under MS Windows (tm) ?
Use csc in combination with the -dll option:
C:\> csc foo.scm -dll
How do I generate a GUI application under Windows(tm)?
Invoke csc with the -windows option. Or pass the -DC_WINDOWS_GUI option to the C compiler and link with the GUI version of the runtime system (that's libchicken-gui[-static].lib. The GUI runtime displays error messages in a message box and does some rudimentary command-line parsing.
Compiling very large files under Windows with the Microsoft C compiler fails with a message indicating insufficient heap space.
It seems that the Microsoft C compiler can only handle files up to a certain size, and it doesn't utilize virtual memory as well as the GNU C compiler, for example. Try closing running applications. If that fails, try to break up the Scheme code into several library units.
When I run csi inside an emacs buffer under Windows, nothing happens.
Invoke csi with the -:c runtime option. Under Windows the interpreter thinks it is not running under control of a terminal and doesn't print the prompt and does not flush the output stream properly.
I load compiled code dynamically in a Windows GUI application and it crashes.
Code compiled into a DLL to be loaded dynamically must be linked with the same runtime system as the loading application. That means that all dynamically loaded entities (including extensions built and installed with chicken-setup) must be compiled with the -windows csc option.
On Windows, csc.exe seems to be doing something wrong.
The Windows development tools include a C# compiler with the same name. Either invoke csc.exe with a full pathname, or put the directory where you installed CHICKEN in front of the MS development tool path in the PATH environment variable.
How do I run custom startup code before the runtime-system is invoked?
When you invoke the C compiler for your translated Scheme source program, add the C compiler option -DC_EMBEDDED, or pass -embedded to the csc driver program, so no entry-point function will be generated (main()). When your are finished with your startup processing, invoke:
CHICKEN_main(argc, argv, C_toplevel);
where C_toplevel is the entry-point into the compiled Scheme code. You should add the following declarations at the head of your code:
#include "chicken.h" extern void C_toplevel(C_word,C_word,C_word) C_noret;
How can I add compiled user passes?
To add a compiled user pass instead of an interpreted one, create a library unit and recompile the main unit of the compiler (in the file chicken.scm) with an additional uses declaration. Then link all compiler modules and your (compiled) extension to create a new version of the compiler, like this (assuming all sources are in the current directory):
% cat userpass.scm ;;;; userpass.scm - My very own compiler pass (declare (unit userpass)) ;; Perhaps more user passes/extensions are added: (let ([old (user-pass)]) (user-pass (lambda (x) (let ([x2 (do-something-with x)]) (if old (old x2) x2) ) ) ) )
% csc -c -x userpass.scm % csc chicken.scm -c -o chicken-extended.o -uses userpass % gcc chicken-extended.o support.o easyffi.o compiler.o optimizer.o batch-driver.o c-platform.o \ c-backend.o userpass.o `csc -ldflags -libs` -o chicken-extended
On platforms that support it (Linux ELF, Solaris, Windows + VC++), compiled code can be loaded via -extend just like source files (see load in the User's Manual).
Why doesn't my fancy macro work in compiled code?
Macro bodies that are defined and used in a compiled source-file are evaluated during compilation and so have no access to definitions in the compiled file. Note also that during compile-time macros are only available in the same source file in which they are defined. Files included via include are considered part of the containing file.
Why are macros not visible outside of the compilation unit in which they are defined?
Macros are defined during compile time, so when a file has been compiled, the definitions are gone. An exception to this rule are macros defined with define-macro, which are also visible at run-time, i.e. in eval. To use macros defined in other files, use the include special form.
Warnings and errors
Why does my program crash when I use callback functions (from Scheme to C and back to Scheme again)?
There are two reasons why code involving callbacks can crash out of no apparent reason:
- It is important to use foreign-safe-lambda/foreign-safe-lambda* for the C code that is to call back into Scheme. If this is not done than sooner or later the available stack space will be exhausted.
- If the C code uses a large amount of stack storage, or if Scheme-to-C-to-Scheme calls are nested deeply, then the available nursery space on the stack will run low. To avoid this it might be advisable to run the compiled code with a larger nursery setting, i.e. run the code with -:s... and a larger value than the default (for example -:s300k), or use the -nursery compiler option. Note that this can decrease runtime performance on some platforms.
Why does the linker complain about a missing function _C_..._toplevel?
This message indicates that your program uses a library-unit, but that the object-file or library was not supplied to the linker. If you have the unit foo, which is contained in foo.o than you have to supply it to the linker like this (assuming a GCC environment):
% csc program.scm foo.o -o program
Why does the linker complain about a missing function _C_toplevel?
This means you have compiled a library unit as an application. When a unit-declaration (as in (declare (unit ...))) is given, then this file has a specially named toplevel entry procedure. Just remove the declaration, or compile this file to an object-module and link it to your application code.
Why does my program crash when I compile a file with -unsafe or unsafe declarations?
The compiler option -unsafe or the declaration (declare (unsafe)) disable certain safety-checks to improve performance, so code that would normally trigger an error will work unexpectedly or even crash the running application. It is advisable to develop and debug a program in safe mode (without unsafe declarations) and use this feature only if the application works properly.
Why do I get a warning when I define a global variable named match?
Even when the match unit is not used, the macros from that package are visible in the compiler. The reason for this is that macros can not be accessed from library units (only when explicitly evaluated in running code). To speed up macro-expansion time, the compiler and the interpreter both already provide the compiled match-... macro definitions. Macros shadowed lexically are no problem, but global definitions of variables named identically to (global) macros are useless - the macro definition shadows the global variable.
This problem can be solved using a different name or undefining the macro, like this:
(eval-when (compile eval) (undefine-macro! 'match))
Why don't toplevel-continuations captured in interpreted code work?
Consider the following piece of code:
(define k (call-with-current-continuation (lambda (k) k))) (k k)
When compiled, this will loop endlessly. But when interpreted, (k k) will return to the read-eval-print loop! This happens because the continuation captured will eventually read the next toplevel expression from the standard-input (or an input-file if loading from a file). At the moment k was defined, the next expression was (k k). But when k is invoked, the next expression will be whatever follows after (k k). In other words, invoking a captured continuation will not rewind the file-position of the input source. A solution is to wrap the whole code into a (begin ...) expression, so all toplevel expressions will be loaded together.
Why does define-reader-ctor not work in my compiled program?
The following piece of code does not work as expected:
(eval-when (compile) (define-reader-ctor 'integer->char integer->char) ) (print #,(integer->char 33))
The problem is that the compiler reads the complete source-file before doing any processing on it, so the sharp-comma form is encountered before the reader-ctor is defined. A possible solution is to include the file containing the sharp-comma form, like this:
(eval-when (compile) (define-reader-ctor 'integer->char integer->char) ) (include "other-file")
;;; other-file.scm: (print #,(integer->char 33))
How can I obtain smaller executables?
If you don't need eval or the stuff in the extras library unit, you can just use the library unit:
(declare (uses library)) (display "Hello, world!\n")
(Don't forget to compile with the -explicit-use option) Compiled with Visual C++ this generates an excutable of around 240 kilobytes. It is theoretically possible to compile something without the library, but a program would have to implement quite a lot of support code on its own.
How can I obtain faster executables?
There are a number of declaration specifiers that should be used to speed up compiled files: declaring (standard-bindings) is mandatory, since this enables most optimizations. Even if some standard procedures should be redefined, you can list untouched bindings in the declaration. Declaring (extended-bindings) lets the compiler choose faster versions of certain internal library functions. This might give another speedup. You can also use the the usual-integrations declaration, which is identical to declaring standard-bindings and extended-bindings (note that usual-integrations is set by default). Declaring (block) tells the compiler that global procedures are not changed outside the current compilation unit, this gives the compiler some more opportunities for optimization. If no floating point arithmetic is required, then declaring (number-type fixnum) can give a big performance improvement, because the compiler can now inline most arithmetic operations. Declaring (unsafe) will switch off most safety checks. If threads are not used, you can declare (disable-interrupts). You should always use maximum optimizations settings for your C compiler. Good GCC compiler options on Pentium (and compatible) hardware are: -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing Some programs are very sensitive to the setting of the nursery (the first heap-generation). You should experiment with different nursery settings (either by compiling with the -nursery option or by using the -:s... runtime option).
Which non-standard procedures are treated specially when the extended-bindings or usual-integrations declaration or compiler option is used?
The following extended bindings are handled specially:
bitwise-and bitwise-ior bitwise-xor bitwise-not add1 sub1 fx+ fx- fx* fx/ fxmod fx= fx> fx>= fixnum? fxneg fxmax fxmin fxand fxior fxxor fxnot fxshl fxshr fp+ fp- fp* fp/ atom? fp= fp> fp>= fpneg fpmax fpmin arithmetic-shift signum flush-output thread-specific thread-specific-set! not-pair? null-list? print print* u8vector->bytevector s8vector->bytevector u16vector->bytevector s16vector->bytevector u32vector->bytevector s32vector->bytevector f32vector->bytevector f64vector->bytevector block-ref byte-vector-length u8vector-length s8vector-length u16vector-length s16vector-length u32vector-length s32vector-length f32vector-length f64vector-length u8vector-ref s8vector-ref u16vector-ref s16vector-ref u32vector-ref s32vector-ref f32vector-ref f64vector-ref u8vector-set! s8vector-set! u16vector-set! s16vector-set! u32vector-set! s32vector-set! hash-table-ref block-set! number-of-slots first second third fourth null-pointer? pointer->object make-record-instance locative-ref locative-set! locative? locative->object identity cpu-time error call/cc
Garbage collection
Why does a loop that doesn't cons still trigger garbage collections?
Under CHICKENs implementation policy, tail recursion is achieved simply by avoiding to return from a function call. Since the programs is CPS converted, a continuous sequence of nested procedure calls is performed. At some stage the stack-space has to run out and the current procedure and its parameters (including the current continuation) are stored somewhere in the runtime system. Now a minor garbage collection occurs and rescues all live data from the stack (the first heap generation) and moves it into the the second heap generation. Than the stack is cleared (using a longjmp) and execution can continue from the saved state. With this method arbitrary recursion (in tail- or non-tail position) can happen, provided the application doesn't run out of heap-space. (The difference between a tail- and a non-tail call is that the tail-call has no live data after it invokes its continuation - and so the amount of heap-space needed stays constant)
Why do finalizers not seem to work in simple cases in the interpeter?
Consider the following interaction in CSI:
#;1> (define x '(1 2 3)) #;2> (define (yammer x) (print x " is dead")) #;3> (set-finalizer! x yammer) (1 2 3) #;4> (gc #t) 157812 #;5> (define x #f) #;6> (gc #t) 157812 #;7>
While you might expect objects to be reclaimed and "(1 2 3) is dead" printed, it won't happen: the literal list gets held in the interpreter history, because it is the result value of the set-finalizer! call. Running this in a normal program will work fine.
When testing finalizers from the interpreter, you might want to define a trivial macro such as
(define-macro (v x) `(begin (print ,x) (void)))
and wrap calls to set-finalizer! in it.
Does CSI support history and autocompletion?
CSI doesn't support it natively but it can be activated with the readline egg. After installing the egg, add the following to your ~/.csirc or equivalent file:
; The regex egg is required for ##csi#name-of-symbols-starting-with (require 'readline 'regex) (current-input-port (make-gnu-readline-port "csi> ")) (gnu-history-install-file-manager (string-append (or (getenv "HOME") ".") "/.csi.history")) (define *completion-entry-function* ##csi#name-of-symbols-starting-with)

Why don't more companies emulate Lincoln Electric?
Blog Entry:
December 28, 2012 6:00 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
This is the last work day of 2012 — thank you, Crain Communications! — so I'll keep things brief:
Why can't more U.S. companies emulate Euclid-based
Lincoln Electric Co.
That's the question posed in
this Motley Fool piece
, which notes the maker of welding products on Dec. 14 announced the 2012 bonus for its roughly 3,000 American employees — something it has done for 79 straight years.
The average 2012 bonus was $33,915 per worker, the average employee earned $82,300 (including the bonus), and no one at Lincoln was laid off in 2012, The Fool says.
Since February 2010, Lincoln and its CEO, John Stropki, have been profiled by
The Wall Street Journal
Harvard Business Review
and many others.
Despite that exposure, The Fool says, "no one at (Mr. Stopki's) elite level of American business — or lower, for that matter — has asked him a single question about Lincoln Electric's phenomenal track record."
"Why haven't CEOs besieged Stropki by phone or dropped by his Cleveland office?," The Fool asks. "His matter-of-fact answer is that running a company with a no-layoff policy is hard and big firms would have a hard time changing their operating stripes. (So... they don't want to make money decade after decade?)"
The piece concludes that Corporate America "is suffering from a near-criminal lack of imagination. Lincoln Electric presents convincing and reassuring evidence that it is possible to run a very profitable, very large multinational business in North America by respecting your customers, employees, investors, and society at large. All of them."
The Wall Street Journal's
of the best in architecture of 2012 includes the new, $27.2 million
Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland
The structure is "a gateway building with sculptural presence and a flexible curatorial mandate,"
The Journal
Designed by Farshid Moussavi, the MOCA Cleveland building "suggests the simplicity of a cube but is actually more complex, with chamfered edges chiseling a square roof out of a hexagonal base," according to the newspaper. "Its mirror-finish black steel skin reflects every passing cloud, giving the building a mysterious totemlike quality, while inside unfinished ceilings are painted deep blue and almost every space can be used flexibly, whether for exhibiting, performances or local events."
Enjoying the increasingly freaky weather brought on by global climate change? Get used to it, because
more is on the way
, and Cleveland will be among the U.S. cities most affected by the changes.
So writes TheAtlanticCities.com in a piece based on data from a
recent study
by researchers at the University of Tennessee, published in the journal
Environmental Research Letters
. The study "used a high-resolution climate modeling system to project bad news down to an impressively local level, examining what we might see in the 20 largest cities east of the Mississippi come the late 2050s," according to the website.
The researchers calculated that heat waves in New York City could be 3.58 degrees Celsius hotter in intensity than they are now, with the average one lasting nearly two days longer. Cleveland "has it the worst, with a heat wave temperature increase of 3.71 degrees Celsius," TheAtlanticCities.com notes, followed by Philadelphia (3.69). The researchers "project that heat waves will grow worse particularly across the Northeast and Midwest, bringing the North and South to roughly equal hot-weather fates."
The number of hungry and homeless people is growing, and budget fights at the federal level "are threatening the aid many need to survive," Reuters
based on a
U.S. Conference of Mayors
report from 25 cities, including Cleveland.
The report found requests for emergency food assistance rose in 21 out of the 25 cities it surveyed in 2012, and remained at the same level in three. More than half the cities said homelessness increased.
Among those seeking emergency food, 51% were in families and 37% were employed. Nearly 17% were elderly and 8.5% were homeless, according to the survey.
The casino business in the Midwest, to a large extent, is a
zero-sum game
The Associated Press reports that Indiana officials expect that the state's government "could see a big drop in casino tax revenue over the next two years due to competition from new casinos in Ohio."
The latest state revenue forecast "projects the state's annual casino tax revenue will decline by about $42 million, or 9 percent, for the second year of the new two-year state budget legislators will decide during their session that starts next month," according to the AP.
Indiana state Senate appropriations chairman Luke Kenley
The Times
of Munster, Ind., that he doesn't believe Indiana's casino revenue will ever return to the levels seen when there was little competition from other states.

Cowboy Quotes and Sayings
I've been riding cows on the range ever since I could breathe. My spurs have always had jingle bobs on them and my boots have always been tall. My hats have always been flat and my ropes long. The words I have spoke have been as honest as the horse between my legs. And my life as simple as the ground I walk.
But we're disappearing you see all the cowboys like me? Where have they all gone the real ones the gritty ones the get er done ones? If anyone wants to find me I'll be out on the range you see? If you find me say howdy and let me know we're not the last of a dying breed.
I can't say I'm a cowboy because that's just not what we do. We don't tell everyone that we know everything and we don't gloat that were not afraid to get dirty.
What we do shows through the pride we have in our work. The pride we have when our cattle slip in the sale ring on sale day. The quite pride we have when our horse cuts out a cow. We don't boast or brag that we know more then the next guy. We may not have the best language around but I guarantee well stop and listen to an elder talk or open a door for a woman. We'll talk to a child like he was our own.
Our horse is God's gift to us. We respect every aspect of this animal yet no boasting is necessary, we show through performance. Our pickup and trailer may not be the nicest but it's ours and that's enough for us. Whether we back into the box or open the gate to the pasture, we will always live a simple life with our lord to thank.
I said I wanted to be a cowboy when I grew up…Mom said I would have to choose.
If you haven't fallen off a horse…then you haven't been ridin long enough.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
Spit in one hand and wish in the other, then see which one gets fuller!
If I got air miles for every unscheduled dismount I've had. I could fly around the world three times.
The "Cowboy hall of fame" does not have any thing to do with cowboys. Them people are rodeo people. A cow boy is a rancher. That tends to cows. And the ranch hands that work with livestock.
My dad who was a cowboy till the day he died had a saying about a few "Wanna be's" he'd say; " that boy wouldn't make a pimple on a cowboy's butt" and when I was riding a cranky or mule headed horse he's always say; "Ride him for what he's worth and you'll get along fine" and I always knew what he meant and that he was right.
Trust your neighbor.. But brand your cattle.
Growin' up, lovin' horses with a real "Old timer" that owned 13 riding stables and 2 slaughter houses and taught me that.
"Them horses eat 'fore you do".
"Pen full of horses out there. Need ridin'".
And "If it ain't good in the stable. It'll be good on the table!"
Few scars on a fella can mean a lot of things. But fair chance he's a quitter. A lot a scars can mean a few things too. But there's a fair chance he's never been one.
Now I'm seeing all of this stuff bout boots n spurs n stuff but to me a cowboy is just a man that does what is asked of him and puts work and other people ahead of themselves. They do the things that need to be done before they go off drinking beer or whatever they do for pleasure.
And there is one quote that I believe in: you ain't a cowboy till you've worked a full cowboy day.
There are only two things you'll see on the back of a bull. A fly and a fool.
Cowboys are gentlemen who treat women with respect and work hard. They use their manners more than any other man would and ride horse and bulls like their is no tomorrow.
I am just a teenager but I agree with the guy who said this stuff is BS but if that guy is a real cowboy why is he on a computer I haven't met one real cowboy that knows how to work a computer.
You aren't country without a pair of worn out leather cowboy boots. :)
I agree with Todd and everyone else who knows what a true cowboy is. They work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 52 weeks out of the year. Real cowboys are out there in the dead of night and in the middle of winter making sure their cattle are alive and safe. They only treat themselves when they have done what needed to get done, paid what they needed to get paid, and most do a of that with one paycheck per year. Cowboys aren't people wearing a cowboy hat, spurs, chaps, and ride horses for fun. Cowboys are men who work every day doing tasks that are demanding, and they don't complain. They live life the way they want to and enjoy what it gives them no matter how hard the life is.
If it ain't broke don't go to trying to fix it.
Cowboys don't walk round callin themselves cowboys.
Any ride you come back top side, is a great ride!
Cowboys don't cry!!
Maybe just a little bit when the dust gets in their eyes.
A cowboy is a person who loves his horse, and being out on the ranch doing the hard and dirty work, and is loyal to his girl.
I love my cowboy.
Being a cowboy ain't about wearing your fancy spotless 50xx beaver hat or riding you horse on a manicured trail on the weekends. It's about getting up all hours of the night to check cattle in the winter time and freezing your hands while you do it, and cutting trail through brush so thick you can't see ten feet in front of you, it's not about driving around in a big jacked up pickup being ignorant. It's about holding doors for your elders and the ladies just like truecowboy says. Being a cowboy isn't a job or a hobby that you can just pick up.
It's a life style that you live from the day you are born.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Robert Glasper
In 2009, Glasper released the forward-thinking album Double Booked, which featured a mix of modal post-bop and funky, '80s Herbie Hancock-inspired numbers with two separate bands. The first of these was his trio with drummer Chris Dave and upright bassist Vicente Archer; they recorded five originals and a cover of Thelonious Monk's "Think of One." These tracks were followed by five more originals by his electric band, dubbed the Robert Glasper Experiment, featuring Dave, electric bassist Derrick Hodge, and Casey Benjamin on saxes and vocoder.
In 2012, the Robert Glasper Experiment (with a slew of all-star guest vocalists) issued their first stand-alone album, Black Radio, for Blue Note, which sought to blur boundaries between jazz, hip-hop, R&B, and rock & roll; it entered the Billboard jazz charts at number one. Later in the year, Glasper and Blue Note released Black Radio Recovered: The Remix EP; 9th Wonder, Georgia Anne Muldrow, and Pete Rock were among those who participated. In 2013, the Robert Glasper Experiment (now including Hodge and Benjamin with drummer Mark Colenburg) returned with their equally star-studded sophomore album, Black Radio 2. ~ Matt Collar & Thom Jurek, Rovi

[user has been banned for ignoring warning about copy-n-pasting posts from another site]
It could happen LOL
Yep...when pigs fly.
It's a stretch. The stars would have to aligned and unlike the Heat, not sure if CP3's and Dwight's friendship is as tight as Lebron's and Wade's.
its bad enuff we have dj & odom. no to dwightmare. lol
They'd sign me before they'd sign D12
This crap again?
after all the sh*t i've talked about him to the laker fans... lol no thanks plus it would never happen. dwight already made a huge mistake by handling the whole magic situation in the worst possible way so i highly doubt he will repeat the same by betraying the lakers
You never know with Dwight, he's very flaky....Wouldn't surprise me if he left the Lakers. His happiness is more important than his image it seems.
How would we get Howard? I think the only way he does not stay with Lakers is via a sign and trade so he can get max. With his injuries, I think Howard is going to want as much security as possible. So who would we trade to get Howard in that scenario? Griffin?
Should you be able to make a thread if you have 1 post?
Apparently, you can if it's about getting Dwight Howard. This must be the 10th time some newbie has posted this sh!t.
Per the new cba dwight would get the same amount in a sign and trade as he would just signing
The point of a sign and trade would be to relieve cap room for a team to be available to get Dwight
I personally would welcome dwight in a trade for deandre, bledsoe and caron
^ Teams over the cap can't do S&T's.
I'm not sure the Lakers would go for that because they can probably get Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson in return for Howard on a sign and trade.
True, but the Lakers would get more cap relief from the Clipper deal, versus taking on Joe Johnson's and Lopez's deals that last till 2015-16.
strong join date
Being an LA homer and fan of both teams, I sort of want them to distribute the talent a bit and keep D-12 in a Lakers uniform and CP3 in a Clippers uniform. That said, I'm pretty sure Mitch Kupchak will move Howard to an Eastern Conference team if he was forced to trade him. There's also a rumor that the Lakers will amnesty Kobe and then sign CP3 next year. I also don't think that will happen and I know the Clippers will never sign and trade CP3 over to the Lakers.
^ Even if the lakers amnesty kobe, they're still at $48million committed... and that's without Dwight's cap hold. They'd have to let Dwight walk before even making an offer. You think he'd want to go there to play with Pau, Nash and Artest?
Sounds like that rumor was started by an over-zealous laker fan.
Lakers can't trade him when he's a FA. The Lakers can't sign and trade Howard since they're in the luxury tax threshold.
The one thing I am not certain about is that their might be a way to sign and trade him but it won't be for contract he would get from the Lakers, it would be for the max any team can get him in FA. If that is the case, why would Howard allow himself to be traded to a team he might not want to play for?
he could just pick a team and get the same money.
AND, by renouncing Howard in order to get CP3, Howard loses his bird rights. Howard don't play that...
Even if Dwight was willing, it still couldn't happen because with CP3, they'd be way over the cap, and therefore unable to sign "free-agent" Howard, right?
Be funny to pick up a pissed-off kobe off of the amnesty wire and have the lakers pick up, say, $25mil of his salary if they dared try something like that, though.
Because the team he wants to go to may need to clear cap space in order to take on his contract without going into the luxury tax... thats what i meant in my post above about relieving cap room
You're right. I was assuming you meant that they would try to nab CP3 and still sign Howard afterwards since they retain his bird rights. I was just thinking ahead if Slestack were to throw out this scenario. They'd have to renounce Howard in order to lift the hold and then sign him with whatever money is left.
Laker fans havent stopped dreaming about cp3 since stern killed their trade for him
Those the same laker fans that think they gonna get bron after his contract is up lol
Wait, are you saying Lebron isn't going to be a Laker in 2015?
But that assumes the Lakers want to take on that cap relief.
Even if Dwight was willing, it still couldn't happen because with CP3, they'd be over the cap, and therefore unable to sign "free-agent" Howard, right?
Which would be nothing... so the "rumor" slestack mentioned is basically some 12-year old's fantasy. I'm surprised LeBron coming to the lakers for vet-min and Pop leaving the Spurs wasn't included in the scenario.
Howard would be an upgrade from DJ. Whether people like Howard or not they cant say Howard wouldnt make this team better. The question is what area would make a bigger impact strengthening up the front court or strengthening up our perimeter? I say the perimeter. Even adding Howard wouldnt help match the shooting of teams like OKC, GSW, and San Antonio. I am going to be honest I dont think the center position is as importnat these days as a strong solid backcourt. As long as we have a defensive minded guy like a Perkins at a decent low cost the money should go to getting guys like Reddick, Korver, or others that can shoot and spcae the floor. Blake can work the inside, and Chris Pauls staple of offense are either layups and shots inside the paint, so Howard shouldnt even be a target. If anything we should be looking to rid ourselves of DJs contract to free space for the shooters we need.
They have a lot better chance to get Bron next season than they do to get CP3 this season. It's literally impossible for them to sign a max FA this summer. I thought there was one tiny window that they could do an S&T if the Clips were willing to facilitate (which would never happen)...But I read that in the new CBA, teams that are over the tax by as much as they are, are not even allowed to do an S&T even if the dollars work.
It's literally impossible for them to get CP3, Josh Smith, anybody worht a ****. They have a mini midlevel and they can make normal trades. That's it.
Has anybody ever heard of "Huffing"? You take a plastic bag and fill it full of spray paint. Then you put it over your nose and mouth and inhale deeply.
1 You get high but for a short period of time
2 When you're done you look ridiculous because you have paint on your face
3 It causes brain damage.
Think of it as "Howarding" instead of Huffing
First, What's with a sign and trade? D12 is a FA and he can go anywhere he chooses. (Houston) Second he may have issues with his back. Third he's a baby. Have you noticed how much better his back got when Kobe got hurt? If DJ got his doo doo together and played to his alleged potential I would rather have him. $10 mill vs the cost of my balls.
I would rather have Tyson Chandler, Brooke Lopez, Al Jefferson, Maybe even Pau. Marc Gasol. Bynum if he weren't injury prone and a head case.
Bron is going to Cleveland. They have cap space and he'll attract free agents like limburger cheese attracts flies. Within 2 years, ECF.
Why would he go to LAL? Like CPC3 he could have "His Team" in
his home town
BTW -- prodigal son returns. Advertizing dollars.
Just don't bet on it though.
Odds I'd give 1/5 he'll be a LAL. 60/40 he'll be a Cav
If you can get him for Deandre, Caron and Bledsoe sure.
I'd rather have something like KG for DJ and a pick and Afflalo for Caron and Bledsoe though
Forget the odds...how much you putting up.
i agree. as much as id love for him to end up in a clips uniform, its not going to happen. i think he goes back to cleveland. if you look at their roster, they got talent. irving, varejao, waiters, thompson, zeller and a s*** load of draft picks. the flakers have to amnesty gasol, and have kobe retire in order to be able to make a run at lebron, and i doubt either happens.
Advertising dollars and Cleveland should not be used in the same sentence. Lebron on the Lakers equals legendary. Lakers have a fraternity of greatness at the center position in Mikan, Wilt, Jabbar, Shaq, and D-12 in the wings. They also have that same fraternity of greatness at the guard position in West, Goodrich, Magic, Kobe, and eventually Lebron. Magic had wondered why there are no Lebron commercials and it's all CP3 and Blake Griffin commercials...well, once Lebron gets to LA, he will be in every other commercial played during a sporting event. Lebron and D12 can team up to dominate the league and the vets chasing rings will fill out the roster like they do in Miami right now.
^ Pat Riley vs. Jim Buss?
My money's on him staying in Miami.
Let me ask you this? Where do you find the money to sign D. Howard? Unless Dwight willing to take so much less money and don't mind being coach with Stan Van Gundy again. haha I salivate of having Paul, Griffin, and Howard on the same team.
They only have Dwight and Nash on the books after next season. That's more than enough space to sign him outright. I think he goes back to Cleveland and help bring a title back to his home-town.
I say we go for it...theoretically we have 45 million commited in contracts right now....if we get agreement that dwight howard and chris paul would sign on a pay cut if we freed up cap and then I wouldnt mind the clippers trading deandre jordan and butler to free up cap. We resign billups and odom (we have there bird rights)...use half of our mid level exception on matt barnes and the use the other half on stephen jackson. Resign hollins and turiaf on minimum contracts. We get bet and keep our depth.
Very true, i was listening to ESPN710 last night, and Max and MArcellus had a guest on who was an expert on the new CBA, and you're absolutely right. Anytime max offered a suggestion the expert shot it down because of one factor or another. Then Max says in a deafeated voice "so the Lakers are screwed?" The guests says "yup"
Why would anyone consider Dwight Howard? He's garbage. He'll never win unless he gets a late in the career Bill Walton on the Celtics ring. His skills are diminishing little by little every year, and he's really just a glorified DJ. 2-3 years from now he'll be worthless.
Why not deal for someone legit with game like LaMarcus Aldridge? Aldridge will still be a beast in 5 years, and realistically he'll probably still be good for another 8-10. Plus, you can pull a Tim Duncan move and roll him at Center. BG and LA together would be overwhelming for NBA front lines. His contract may be high, but it's only 3 mil or so more than DJ's.
^ too bad portland wont part with aldridge.
Tense I'll bet my first born child. That's how sure I am.
Why is this even a thread? We already have 2 top 10 players (My Opinion) we dont need to pay max money for a top 20 player. I'd rather try our luck with Nerlens Noel and he won't cost an arm and a leg to get him.

What Parents Need to Know
Learn what Ebola is, when it is contagious and what signs and symptoms to look for.
Learn what Ebola is, when it is contagious and what signs and symptoms to look for.
The toddler months continue to bring the medical challenges of colds, cuts, bruises, and other minor emergencies.
But you'll also find yourself dealing with an emerging personality and increasing conflicts. The new ability to walk means your child can now become more independent — and might like to flaunt it!
Some doctors have their own schedule for well-child visits, but most see kids four times, at 12, 15, 18, and 24 months. If your toddler has missed any immunizations, or if a problem has been detected that needs special attention, additional visits may be scheduled.
The well-child visits during your child's second year are similar to those before, although discussions with your doctor about behavior and habits may become more detailed as your toddler grows.
Expect these common procedures and questions:
If they haven't already, kids this age might undergo a tuberculin skin test, especially those at risk for tuberculosis. You'll be given instructions on how to monitor the test and report results to the doctor's office. Your child may also have a hemoglobin screen to check for anemia, and if you are in a high-risk area, a screen to check for lead poisoning.
Address any questions or concerns you have, and write down any specific instructions the doctor gives you regarding special care. Keep updating your child's permanent medical record, listing information on growth and any problems or illnesses.
Kids who have missed immunizations at previous visits because of illness or scheduling problems will be brought up to date by 18 months of age.
Because your child is coming in contact with other kids more often, you'll want to make sure all immunizations are given close to the recommended times. This is especially true if your child attends childcare.
Because more immunizations than ever are being given to children before the age of 2 years, doctors are spacing immunizations so kids won't need more than 3-4 shots per well-child visit.
From the Recommended Immunization Schedule of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP):
A child who did not have them at the 12-month visit will receive these vaccines at 15 months:
At the 18-month visit, if not already been given, children should receive:
Your child may also receive a flu shot, which is recommended every year before flu season for children older than 6 months, and a first and/or second dose of the hepatitis A (Hep A) vaccine (the first and second doses must be at least 6 months apart). If your child is at high risk for developing meningococcal disease, a serious bacterial infection, your doctor may offer that vaccine as well.
Discuss possible vaccine reactions with your doctor and get advice on when to call with unusual problems.
By now you have probably called your doctor's office many times with questions and concerns about your child's health. Don't hesitate to notify the doctor if you suspect something is wrong — you know your child best.
Be sure to call if your child is especially sluggish or irritable, has serious problems sleeping, is refusing all food or drink, is suffering from vomiting or diarrhea, or has a temperature over 102.2º F (39º C).
Some developmental delays should be reported to your doctor, although these may or may not signal a problem. By 18 months your child will probably be able to:
By age 2 your toddler should be able to:
Again, signs of developmental delay should be brought to the doctor's attention, but they do not necessarily mean there is something wrong.

City closer to connecting sidewalks to school
1,150 feet of walks installed this month
Construction crews laid about 1,150 feet of sidewalk on City property near the elementary school this month, the first step toward getting walkways connected to the building.The Dell Rapids City Council has spent a chunk of its time this year discussing what many officials say is a lack of sidewalks to and from the elementary school. Since the school was built in 2011, students have had to navigate their way there without the luxury of sidewalks.Officials had hoped to use a grant to pay for sidewalks along 12th Street and Clark Avenue, but after the Department of Transportation awarded $50,298 – about a quarter of what Dells officials were pursuing – to Dell Rapids for the Safe Routes to School initiative, the City learned none of the grant dollars could be spent on sidewalks. In July, the council approved a $17,600 bid from B. Graham Construction to lay the walks, and the work was completed last week.City Administrator Justin Weiland said the City's 2013 budget had $10,000 slated for sidewalks. The remaining $7,600 will come out of the street department's budget."We have some other line items in the budget that we probably won't end up spending this year," he said.Though the newly installed walks still do not connect to the school, Weiland said it shouldn't be long before kids have a direct walking path to and from the building "Once that street and that area develops it will connect," he said, referring to home builders' obligation to install sidewalks when developing new property.

Last offseason, Gronkowski was a regular in the operating room. He required multiple surgeries to repair back and forearm injuries -- and clear up an infection that became a major setback and kept him out of the 2013 season opener -- and is being cautious not to encounter unwanted delays this time around.
Gronkowski would not declare himself ready for training camp or even the 2014 regular-season opener. He underwent surgery on Jan. 9 for ACL reconstruction and in February had a torn MCL repaired.
---The Miami Dolphins announced Tuesday that the team exercised a fifth-year option on Pro Bowl center Mike Pouncey's rookie contract.
The extension runs through the 2015 season for the No. 15 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. Per the terms of his rookie deal, Pouncey will earn a base salary of $1.64 million next season.
Pouncey has made 46 career starts in three NFL seasons and was named to the Pro Bowl this past year, becoming the first Miami center to gain Pro Bowl recognition since Tim Ruddy in 2000. The franchise's other Pro Bowl centers are Hall of Famers Jim Langer (1973-78) and Dwight Stephenson (1983-87).
---Safety Earl Thomas reached agreement on a four-year contract extension with the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday.
The team did not disclose financial terms of the deal, but ESPN reported that Thomas will receive $27.75 million guaranteed and the average value is $10 million per year, which would make him the NFL's highest-paid safety.
The 24-year-old Thomas has been named to the Pro Bowl in three of his first four seasons with the Seahawks. He had 105 tackles and five interceptions last season for the Super Bowl champion Seahawks.
---New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram lobbied for the team to pick up his fifth-year option in 2015, but the team is leaning the other direction ahead of Saturday's deadline.
Ingram would earn $6.97 million in base salary in 2015 as a first-round pick in 2011 should the Saints choose to pick up the final year -- a team option for first-rounders -- of his contract.
Ingram has not performed up to expectations with New Orleans using a deep rotation at running back led by Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles, who was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles in March. Ingram missed five games last season with a toe injury. He rushed for 386 yards and one touchdown.
---Former Ohio State cornerback Bradley Roby accepted a guilty plea for having "physical control" of a vehicle while under the influence, settling a legal matter before the first-round prospect learns his fate in the May 8 NFL Draft.
Roby was charged with operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated last weekend when police found him asleep in his car in a parking lot. The police report said he failed a subsequent field sobriety test. Roby and his attorney said otherwise, but Perrett released a statement Tuesday outlining the reasons for accepting the lesser charge, a non-moving violation that will not appear on his driving record.

Gonococcal arthritis is inflammation of a joint due to a gonorrhea infection.
Disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI)
Gonococcal arthritis is an infection of a joint. It occurs in people who have gonorrhea caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Gonococcal arthritis affects women more often than men, and it is most common among sexually active adolescent girls.
Two forms of gonococcal arthritis exist:
Blood cultures should be checked in all cases of possible gonococcal arthritis.
Tests will be done to check for a gonorrhea infection. This may involve taking samples of tissue, stool, joint fluids, or other body material and sending them to a lab for examination under a microscope. Examples of such tests include:
The gonorrhea infection must be treated.
There are two aspects of treating a sexually transmitted disease, especially one as easily spread as gonorrhea. The first is to cure the infected person. The second is to locate, test, and treat all sexual contacts of the infected person to prevent further spread of the disease.
Some locations allow you to take counseling information and treatment to your partner(s) yourself. In other locations, the health department will contact your partner(s).
A standardized treatment routine is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Your health care provider will determine the best and most up-to-date treatment. A follow-up visit 7 days after treatment is important, if the infection was complicated, to recheck blood tests and confirm that the infection was cured.
Symptoms usually improve within 1 to 2 days of starting treatment. Full recovery can be expected.
Untreated, this condition may lead to persistent joint pain.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of gonorrhea or gonococcal arthritis.
Not having sexual intercourse (abstinence) is the only sure method of preventing gonorrhea. A monogamous sexual relationship with a person who you know does not have any sexually transmitted disease (STD) can reduce your risk. Monogamous means you and your partner do not have sex with any other people.
You can greatly lower your risk of infection with an STD by using a condom every time you have sex. Condoms are available for both men and women, but are most commonly worn by the man. A condom must be used properly every time.
