Comments about Seven Forests Liquidambar 15:
My arthritic 12 year old lab can't take prescription anti-inflamatory anymore as her liver almost shutdown.. She was for a while only on tramadol but even being on a huge dosis she was still in pain and uncomfortable. Liquidambar has helped her and I know that because she ran out of it for 1 week and got lot worse. Right now, she is stable with Tramadol, Pain Pus (Resources), and Liquidambar. It's a good mix for her.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My dog has been on prescription anti-inflamatory medication and I was concerned about the long term effects so I would not give it to him regularly but only when he seemed in great pain. His activity level and mood was definitly not my happy pup. [...] He wants the pill because now he is back to running in and out the dog door, jumping on the couch and playing with the other dog. I can not give enough THANKS [...] to the product [...]
Noticeable difference!
By Kate & Lu
from Rochester NY
The product was first suggested by my dog's chiropractor after he saw some spinal changes on an xray. My dog is a Corgi/lab mixed breed, long backed, short legs. She dog did not have any critical lameness prior to using this product. But after using the product the first 4 weeks I definitely saw improvement in those hard to describe ways, i.e., she is more willing to 'hop' over obstacles rather than walking around them! She wants to exert herself more and I know she feels better from the liquidambar supplement. I love seeing her feel as good as she can and enjoy life.

By Guslers Mom
from Bldr CO
My 14 yr old Schnauzer, Gus, had some aches and pains, old age related. Putting him on Pain Medicine that will hurt his kidneys is not going to happen until I have no choice. I looked around for alternatives and found this product to be very helpful. I give him one tablet @ the same time everyday with his food. Now,he sleeps through the night and I hardly hear him groan anymore. I think it worked the first couple days I gave it to him. He lets me know the few times I have forgotten to give him the pill as he groans a lot if I forget. I am very happy with this product. I think it would be worth trying vs.a harsher pain medicine.

Seems to help a good bit
By cornspot
from maryland
Older dog has torn cruciate. I am not good about giving this as often as I should. When I do, I can see a big difference. However, I still end up using the Rimadyl and/or Tramadol on occasion.I suspect this would work well on arthritis. With a torn cruciate, the knee is going to give out sometimes no matter what meds you choose.My dog doesn't really like the tablets but will eat them if crushed & mixed with food plus flavor enhancer (canned food, Nupro powder, raw meat or what ever). If she ate them right out of my hand, I would be better about giving them three times per day.

About Me Long-Time Pet Owner
Over a month ago, my 17-yr-old pomeranian was injured from disk problem, since he slipped on new floor. He had been treated with steroid injection for 5 days. Came home with oral pain killer pills but he got sick even more.After I searched online, I found Natraul Pure product like SEVEN FOREST, my vet agreed to give my dog a try along with his medication together(liver and kidney treatment med.). He seems to have a good improvement everyday.Later we also added the Up_AND_GO as well as SALMON SOCKEYE OIL pills, both are from Only Natural. The improvement is even better than before.When dogs are at their old age, they have to be treated differently, this is my experience. I am thankful that i found the right kind of products to treat my dog, in a natrual way. It has been 5 wks after his accident, he can walk again(even run and climb upstair, but he stop him all that), he wags his tail and looks at me as if he tells me that he is feeling well. He will start accupunture next week to regian more of his strength. Hope my experience can help you.

The OSGi framework is a powerful Java tool providing component based service and dependency management. OSGi components can be remotely installed, started, stopped, updated and uninstalled without shutting down your application. Also, OSGi provides far greater dependency management than the basic Java classpath mechanism, allowing you to specify specific versions of dependencies and keep dependencies private so that other components cannot load them. One of the most notable usages of OSGi is the Eclipse Plugin Container. A good starting point for more information is the Wikipedia page and the Further Reading section of this document.
Loading Groovy as an OSGi service
The Groovy jar files are released with correct OSGi metadata, so they can be loaded into any OSGi compliant container, such as Eclipse Equinox or Apache Felix. The metadata can be viewed by looking at the jar file's MANIFEST.MF file. For instance, your Jar manifest might contain these lines:
This declares to the OSGi container that the Jar is version 1.7.0 and provides the specified packages for import by other components.
The following examples all use the Eclipse Equinox container, which can be downloaded from the Internet or found in an Eclipse installation.
Perform the following steps to install and start the Groovy Jar in an OSGi container:
Start the OSGi container in console mode:
This should bring up an OSGi console prompt:
You can see the system status of the container at any time using the "ss" command.
Install the Groovy jar file using "install" and a file URL to your groovy-all jar:
The container will assign the bundle an identifier. Start the bundle using the "start" command:
Verify the bundle is started using "ss":
You can list all the packages the Groovy bundle provides with the "packages" command:
Writing a Groovy OSGi Service
Once the Groovy jar is loaded into the container, writing an OSGi service that uses Groovy is as simple as creating a class that extends the framework's BundleActivator interface.
The Activator's start(BundleContext) method will be invoked when the container starts the service, and the stop(BundleContext) method will be invoked when the container stops the service.
The first step in deploying the new Groovy service is to create a jar file containing the Activator. The manifest for the Jar needs to specify the name of the new service, the version, the fully qualified path to the Activator, and which packages from the groovy-all jar bundle to import. The complete manifest for this example follows:
The Import-Package statement is important. It states all the dependencies from the Groovy-all jar which are allowed to be referenced. The Groovy-all Jar exports many, many more packages than just this... an Import-Package definition with just enough dependencies to get the println to work correctly is shown here. In a more meaningful Activator you'd want to import many more of the packages.
The complete Jar for this example has a layout as follows:
Test the new Hello-Groovy bundle by running the OSGi console and issuing the following commands, using "ss" to verify that the correct dependencies are loaded beforehand:
The start and stop message shows that the Groovy service was correctly started and stopped.
Including the Groovy Jar within a Bundle
The previous example shows how to resolve an Activator's Groovy dependency from the container. The Activator can only be started after the Groovy bundle is started. An alternative is to simply include the groovy-all jar within your bundle. This eliminates the need to declare Import-Packages, but does bloat the size of the jar. Any Jar file included within your bundle has private visibility and cannot be referenced by any other bundles that happen to be running in the container.
To include the groovy-all jar within your bundle, rather than loading it from the container, create your Jar with a layout as follows:
And use this template as the MANIFEST.MF:
The Jar can now be loaded and started in the container without first loading the Groovy Jar. Verify this but running the following within the console:
Publishing a Service Written in Groovy
Publishing a service written in Groovy requires one extra step that a Java service does not. This is because of the way Groovy makes extensive use of ClassLoaders and reflection. When registering a service with the BundleContext, you must be sure to temporarily set the current thread's ContextClassLoader to the target object's ClassLoader, and then set it back when you're done. It's actually quite easy, and this example walks you through this one detail.
In order to demonstrate registering a service, we need to create a sample service in Groovy. This is just a POGO interface and implementation. Consider the GroovyGreeter which simply prints a message to the console.
GroovyGreeter.groovy defines the interface:
And GroovyGreeterImpl.groovy defines the implementation:
Now the Activator can create an instance of GroovyGreeterImpl and register it with the container as a GroovyGreeter provider. In Java, you'd need one line to call BundleContext.registerService(String, Object, Dictionary), but in Groovy we need to change the ContextClassLoader while we do this. Here is a complete and correct Activator:
The Jar file for this bundle is similar to the first example's:
The Jar Manifest is almost the same as the first example. The change is the Export-Package statement. Since we are registering the a service org.codehaus.groovy.osgi,GroovyGreeter, we need to specify that package and version in an Export-Package statement:
Notice, also, how this bundle is importing the Groovy Jar from the container, it does not contain the Groovy Jar within itself. To verify and test this, use the OSGi console to install and start the groovy-all Jar and then install and start this Jar.
Consuming a Service from Groovy
It is easy to consume an OSGi service from a Groovy Activator. This example shows how to locate and invoke the service from the previous section, but could just as easily work with a different service. It does not matter at all whether the service was written in Groovy, Java, or any other language. The implementation details of a service should be completely hidden from you by the OSGi module system. Also, while this example is written in Groovy, it is not very different from how it would look in Java.
To consume the service from the previous section, you will need an Activator that retrieves the service from the BundleContext in the start(BundleContext) method:
The service was registered by the interface name, so this Activator queries for that interface, printing out all the providers found. Notice the package and name of this Activator changed. Since the previous example exported the org.codehaus.groovy.osgi, this example needed to pick a different package to avoid conflicts. Also, the variables types in the code sample were explicitly declared to make the samplee easier to read.
To package and run this example you'll need to make a Jar with the following layout:
And the manifest needs to import the org.codehaus.groovy.osgi in the previous example:
Install and test this bundle in the OSGi console. To install this bundle you'll need the groovy-all bundle installed first:
To start the bundle, you'll need the groovy-all bundle started and the hello-groovy bundle installed:
To see the GroovyGreeter service locate and invoke the service, start the hello-groovy bundle and the restart the harness:
Exploring the OSGi console can be a valuable learning experience. Now that all the bundles are loaded, try playing with the "bundle", "headers", "services", and "packages" commands. Help is available by typing "help".
Common Errors
Diagnosing runtime exceptions can be a frustrating experience for the OSGi beginner and expert alike. Here are some common errors and solutions you might experience running these code samples:
ClassNotFoundException - The Java and Groovy compiler use a classpath to resolve dependencies, while the OSGi container does not. This means that code that compiles fine might still receive ClassNotFound exceptions when running in the container. Here are some steps to diagnose the issue:
- Find out which class is missing but reading the exception stack trace
- Find out which Jar contains the missing class
- Does that Jar's Manifest contain an Export-Package statement for the class' package? If not, then the Jar was built incorrectly and you need to add the package to the Export-Package statement of the Jar.
- Does your Jar's Manifest contain an Import-Package statement for the imported package? If not, then your Jar was built incorrectly and you need to add the package to the Import-Package statement of your Jar.
- Does the Export-Package version number match your Import-Package version number? If not, then update your manifest to import the correct version, or update the missing class' jar to export the correct version?
- Is the missing class' bundle correctly installed and started in the container? The results of an "ss" command must show the Jar as "Active" or else it won't be resolved. Use the "install" and "start" commands to start the jar correctly.
Missing Constraint - This means that one of your declared Import-Package statements cannot be satisfied by the container. The error message will state exactly which dependency is missing, for instance it might say: Missing Constraint groovy.lang; version="1.7.0.beta-1-SNAPSHOT".
- Is the missing constraint's bundle correctly installed and started in the container? The results of an "ss" command must show the Jar as "Active" or else it won't be resolved. Use the "install" and "start" commands to start the jar correctly.
ClassCastException - This error occurs when retrieving services out of the BundleContext and takes the form of the mysterious error message "Cannot cast foo.bar.Class to foo.bar.Class". This means that the ClassLoader of your bundle has a different version of foo.bar.Class than the one you're retrieving.
- Look at how the service's Activator is adding foo.bar.Class to the BundleContext. If the class is implemented in Groovy then you must add the service using the ClassLoader code in the Publishing a Service Written in Groovy of this document.
- Look at how your Activator is resolving the reference to the class. If your bundle already defines foo.bar.Class and you're trying to retrieve a foo.bar.Class from a different bundle, then the versions of the classes won't match. Declare the type as an interface that is imported the same way between both bundles to resolve this issue.

How to enable serving aliases/symbolic links?
There are two parts to serving aliased files with Jetty: alias detection and then alias serving.
Alias detection
Jetty runs in a mode where all file accesses are checked for aliases, such as case insensitivity, short names, symbolic links and extra characters (Eg %00).
Alias requests are a security problem because web application security constraints are applied with case sensitive URL patterns. For example, if a security constraint is place on a /mySecretFolder/* and alias checking was not implemented then on a win32 system the following requests could retrieve files from that URL:
- /MySeCrEtFoLdEr/secret.html
- /mysec~a0.dir/secret.html
- /mySecretFolder/secret.html%00
File name aliases come in many forms including case insensitivity, VMS version numbers, Unix symbolic links, 8.3 short names, etc. While some of these aliases (eg symbolic links) are deliberate, there is no general way to tell this in portable 100% java.
Jetty detects aliases by comparing the file's absolutePath with its canonicalPath.
Alias detection can be turned off by setting the System Property
org.mortbay.util.FileResource.checkAliases to false. If alias checking is not used, then greater care is needed when designing security constraints. It is recomended that a restrictive constraint be applied to a whole subtree of URL space and then selective constraints be applied to relax security only for specific URLs.
Alias serving
By default, Jetty checks for alias and disallows the serving of aliased files. If instead you wish to allow aliased files to be served, then you set the <init-param> called "aliases" to "true" for the
org.mortbay.jetty.servlet.DefaultServlet in
1 Comment
The webdefault.xml can only be read by a WebAppContext (I think), not a plain Context. To enable alias serving in a Context:
(this snippet is based on the example Context in etc/jetty.xml)

Strengths: Stiff, sturdy and cheap. Adjustments work well enough too.
Weaknesses: Well it's no featherweight but the real let-down is the TK damping.
Bottom Line:
It looses points for one reason, the TK damping cartridge. It's not total garbage but it's not very great either. While the fork absorbs bumps well enough the primitive damping means the front end never feels totally secure and planted. I don't think it's even as good as the damping on the original Tora, which was a very similar fork. You can twiddle the knobs as much as you want you'll still be stuck with a washy fork that is a little unsettling at speed.
The fork is still good value and a solid product but without more effective damping it's a chilli short of beong a great one.

Strengths: Bike ridden is a Diamondback HT, trails are very tree rooty with pretty much no "drops". I have ridden for a couple of years and needed a new fork bad, seals were blown in my old one. So put the XC 32 on and set spring pre-load on around medium and went riding. Fork is stiff, bombs over roots with no surprises, keeps track on trail with no washouts, and generally does a good job. Fork let me rip through root sections with good confidence.

Forget the standard new year's resolutions -"I'm going to lose weight, go to the gym, quit smoking, blah blah blah". I say, make this year a bit more fun by focusing more on what we love-motorcycles, and make some resolutions centered on that. Here are a few suggestions for 2014:
Lets start off with a fun one: Ride more often. What's the point of owning a bike if you have it sitting in your garage most of the year? Resolve to spend less time on the computer and more time on what you love-riding. There's always work and there are always things that need to be done and they will never end, so give yourself a break and take out your bike for a ride even if its just to go around the block. This will help keep it from rusting and falling apart in your garage too.
Do some off road riding. This will give you the chance to ride on a different type of terrain instead of just asphalt. You'll experience motorcycle riding in a whole different way and you can make it fun by doing it with a group of friends.
Service your bike on your own as much as possible. Owning a motorcycle isn't just about riding, but learning as well. What better way to spend a lazy afternoon enjoying your hobby, than by tinkering with your bike like changing the oil, changing your mirrors, grips, or turn signals. We have a lot of nice looking ones available along with do-it yourself videos on our website to guide you step by step. Plus as an added bonus, you'll save a lot of money and learn at the same time, by doing some stuff on your own.
Get a project bike. This one links in with the previous resolution of servicing your own bike. I find its a lot of fun to get together with my friends and work on an old bike together. You get to share ideas and I always learn something new. Plus it gives you a good excuse to drink some alcohol. Crack open a few beers and start tinkering. Make sure you focus more on tuning the bike though than drinking the beer. You don't want to end up getting drunk and forgetting where you put the engine you just removed.
Resolve to clean your motorcycle at regular intervals. This is time well spent. I know sometimes its annoying to do but it pays in the long run. Dirt grime can build up and cause rust as well as other problems for your bike. Doing so will save you a lot of money in the long run by not having to replace rusted parts, plus you get to burn some calories doing it, so you're getting two resolutions done at the same time-cleaning your bike and losing some weight ;-)
Make it a habit of checking your tire pressure before going for a ride. Either visually or using a pressure gauge. You don't want to set off on a long journey with a tire that has an air bubble or low pressure. Both can be recipes for disaster. As the saying goes, better safe than sorry. It only takes a minute to do anyway.
Take a motorcycle riding course. This will make you a better rider and more importantly a safer rider. Plus it's an opportunity to meet new people and it's a lot of fun.
Visit a track. What's more fun than getting an adrenaline rush from riding fast on your motorcycle. Wasn't that one of the reason's you got one in the first place? Don't shake your head-you know you got it for that reason.
Ride a charity run and go to a motorcycle show/event. Definitely a lot of fun and a great experience. You get to meet new people, re-unite with old friends, and feel good about what you are doing when its for a charity. Plus for us guys, you get to see those hot girls in uniforms representing certain motorcycle brands at the motorcycle shows and events ;-)
Those are our resolutions for 2014. Feel free to add your own resolutions as well. Have a happy 2014 New Year!

Robbie Kempson says the All Blacks won't adopt a helter skelter approach like they did last year against the Springboks.
The Kiwis' tactical naivete in the first encounter between the sides astounded many pundits, as they opted to run from all positions on the field in an attempt to not make contact as often as possible and avoid the Boks strengths, such as the lineout. The visitors were expected to be more pragmatic in Durban, but again they followed the Bloem template – without any success.
With Dan Carter back for the final hit-out of the year in Hamilton, the Blacks varied their game better, but their faltering lineout cost them in the opening half especially.
Former Bok prop Kempson believes the Kiwis would have learnt their lessons and will play a much smarter game this time around. The Stormers and Bulls – who make up the majority of the Bok squad – had unprecedented success against the New Zealand sides in this year's Super 14, the former winning all five of their games, while the Bulls lost just one out of six against Kiwi opposition.
That loss came against the Blues, when the Aucklanders realised they had to play the Bulls at their own game, and they physically matched the South Africans at the collisions. Conversely, the Crusaders believed they had the blueprint to down South African opposition, but in the semi-final it backfired as they only served to put themselves under pressure by running from deep.
Even though this year's law interpretations favour sides keeping ball in hand in their own territory and All Blacks wing Cory Jane says they'll counter-attack as much as possible under the Boks' aerial attack, Kempson feels the hosts won't try loosen up the match from the outset.
'The All Blacks know they'll have to take on the confrontations first,' Kempson told keo.co.za. 'They're known for swinging the ball wide, but they won't do it from the start. The only way to beat the Boks is to confront them up front initially.'
The battle for gain-line supremacy is aided by who gets front foot ball at the set-pieces. Graham Henry lamented his side's poor showing at the scrum against Wales, while the Boks hold a mental advantage over the Blacks at the lineout due to last year's dismantling of the set-piece by Victor Matfield.
'I don't think the Bok scrum will dominate, as many people think,' said Kempson. 'Our front row isn't at their best yet and is still one of the weaker parts of our game because we don't have continuity in that aspect. Both sides would assume the scrums will be 50-50 and we'll have to wait and see what happens there as you can't read too much into what the All Blacks did against Wales.
'The All Black lineout has improved, but no one compares to Victor. We should dominate them there, and our loosies will also edge it.
'Overall, that battle up front is key, but in both sides' cases, they're not as strong as they'd want to be.'
The Boks have a brilliant opportunity to strike another blow to the Kiwi psyche in Auckland, but Kempson doesn't foresee the Boks repeating last year's feat of defeating the Blacks three times.
'I don't think we'll win both Tests there,' he said. 'We have the best squad South Africa's assembled and what they've achieved is tremendous, but we won't repeat last year's results. Especially with the amount of pride at stake on the All Blacks' part.
'It's always tough in New Zealand, especially the first Test. As Richie McCaw's said, they're ranked the No 1 side in the world and no one's given them much credit for it. They'll really be up for the challenge.'

When Britney came to the ASPCA through the Humane Law Enforcement department, she was in pain and suffering from multiple untreated conditions.
Fortunately, the veterinary staff at the ASPCA's Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital was able to nurse Britney back to health, and eventually she became available for adoption; we could finally find a home for this sweet dog who had suffered so much.
We knew it would be a challenge.
Statistically speaking, animals who are black, large or senior, as well as those who take medication or can't live with other animals, usually spend more time waiting for homes. Britney was all of these things, and to make matters worse, she didn't engage much with adopters who passed her habitat, preferring to rest quietly.
Still, we knew that the right person would come for Britney, and to speed things along, we spread the word about this special canine. After seeing Britney's picture and reading about her, Kevin Bechard tells us, "I wanted to snatch her right up."
A few days later Bechard was going above and beyond to help Britney settle in to her new home in suburban Connecticut.
"The first couple nights I actually slept on the floor with her because she can't do stairs, and she would just reach out with her paw and make sure it was against me," he recalls. "Only then she would allow herself to go to sleep. If I moved away a little bit, her eyes would open."
The love and comfort of a forever home has revived Britney, who has blossomed into a trusting and happy pup: Bechard reports that at his house Britney loves romping outdoors and goes on multiple nature walks a day.
In return, Bechard has gained a new best friend who, he says, never required house-training or manners instruction, thanks to her age. "I wish more people would consider older dogs," Bechard says. "I was open to anything, but I was so pleasantly surprised."
I love you, Kevin!!! Bless you for giving Britney such a loving home--she is one lucky dog!
Surely we don't expect people to totally disregard us because we get older? Neither should we give up or disregard senior dogs and cats. Well done Kevin - for giving an older dog a new lease on life.
Kevin--What a great guy you are to open your home and your heart to Britney. You both have found something special!
Britney--You lucky dog. You deserve the BEST and now you have it. And--woof woof bark woof!
Kevin, such a wonderful happy ending for both of you! You've inspired me to do the same.
God bless you and Britney. I hope you both have many years ahead with lots of wonderful memories and love!!
Senior dogs need love too. I am so happy she found someone to care and love her like she deserves. There should be more people like Bechard.
Thank you Kevin for having that special Heart to save a special doggie like Brandy. I have a pit since she was a puppy, she is now 11 yrs old. She will NOT sleep alone either. She's a cuddle bug like Brandy :-)
God bless you Kevin for your compassion. I am sure Britney is giving you lots of affection and gratitude too :-)
Kevin, I own an old dog who is 16. He is a goldenretriver and he is awsome. Thank you Kevin. People like you are amazing.
Every time the ASPCA sent out an e-mail trying to find a home for Britney, it broke my heart... now I'm overjoyed to find that she's found her forever home, with an amazing compassionate person. She will repay you tenfold, with all the love she can give.

Are insulated garage doors worth it?
By Dan Gould, Networx
In an ideal world, we would always be able to use the highest quality materials and appliances to make our homes the best they can be. Sometimes though, this idea of perfection can be taken too far, when additional features are just plain useless.
Hometalk member Teri of Raleigh, N.C., was wondering if she should go the extra mile and install an insulated garage door, replacing the existing standard model.
Dan's of Central Florida says that there is little point in spending the money on an insulated door unless the garage is heated/air conditioned. The better idea in this case would be to make sure the insulation around the garage walls and attic spaces is sufficient to keep the heat or cold from entering into the main living space.

Otherwise, I could get away with saying that Drummond is a better center than Tyson Chandler because he has so much potential. I was specifically responding to that part of his OP.
Your improvement argument is noted, however. I think we have different ideas on where his ceiling lies. My personal opinion is that he's almost at, if not hit, his ceiling this season given his physical limitations. I understand where you are coming from, though.

"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
Take Aminu, for instance. People jumped on the AFA bandwagon based off a small sample of solid performances. Now, with 5-10 more games of NBA action, it is clear that his play was an anomaly. Furthermore, this specific situation exhibited how statistics don't always paint an accurate reflection of play. While his numbers were up, Aminu didn't add anything to his game. Instead, the only difference was that he finished at the rim at a more efficient rate. All in all, he still couldn't shoot, handle, or take care of the ball.
I'm not hoping for an all-star position at every starting level. I just want players with manageable liabilities. Vasquez, in my opinion, brings too much bad with the good to warrant starting minutes.

http://www.nba.com/playerfile/greivis_vasquez/..go there and u can compare very easily to your listy and u will see that 6or 7 dont stack up...yea it is only 15 games so far but there is nothing there to assume vasquez will all of a sudden fall off or his numbers will drop...there is reason to believe that they will increase tho looking at a healthy ad and eg getting back in the lineup...
Vasquez would be perfect if we had a cat like Brandon Jennings ahead of him. But Vasquez turns the rock over too much and can't guard anyone. It's not hate. It's just the facts. I love me some Vasquez.
As a backup. But he is a liability physically.
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
It's clear that I can't convince you otherwise and that's ok. All I'm really saying is that we should at least wait until the season comes to an end before annointing GV "the future". Perhaps, even two. Clearly he's shown improvment as of this moment, but I'm afraid that his ceiling isn't as high as you believe it to be simply given his physical limitations (not to mention his turnovers, but that's another story). That's the last thing I have to say on the matter.

That's 20. Plus you still got guys like Lawson, who we know is better, Rose and Rubio who are hurt, and 5 or 6 others that you can go either way on like Jose Calderon and Jeremy Lin.
It's not hate, just facts
I think people who emphasize on vasques turning the ball over are just caught in the now moment of a bad game...yea he turns the ball over but so do the top pg's in this league..vasquez to avg/pg is 3.4...same as rondo,dwill,curry,lawson and westbrook but lower than some pretty good pg's like irving

Moreover, how in the world are you trying to correct someone's grammar when you don't even use periods or any other punctuation? {Mod edit-please refrain from name calling}
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
Just trying to help out, really. There are some arguments to play for Vasquez's play this season being above average, but pulling out assists per game or turnovers per game are not going to win that argument on a board with people as intelligent and savvy as this one
People aren't hating on Vasquez, only on each other.
Maybe he doesn't fit on the team because fans will not clearly agree on his status in the NBA

Tourists visit Trinity College in central Dublin, Ireland. Ireland is on many lists as a hotspot for travel in 2013 because of a grassroots homecoming event called "The Gathering," inviting those who are "Irish-born, Irish-bred and Irish in spirit" to visit.
But the best pitch for travel in the new year might just be coming from Ireland, which is running ads "calling all Flynns, O'Malleys and Schweizenbergs" to the Emerald Isle for a unique grassroots homecoming called "The Gathering."
Here are the travel trends for 2013:
Ireland's The Gathering
"It's a citizen-led initiative to attract people who are Irish-born, Irish-bred or Irish in spirit to join us in 2013," said Bernard McMullan of Tourism Ireland. "It's almost become a competition where one county, town or village tries to have as quirky a gathering as the next."
More than 2,000 events are already planned, including events for redheads and left-handers as well as reunions based on family names and clans.
The U.S. Census Bureau says 34.7 million Americans claim Irish ancestry, and Arabella Bowen, executive editorial director of Fodor's Travel, is one of them. Even President Barack Obama has an Irish ancestor in the family tree.
"There are Irish people all over the world," Bowen said. "It will be great fun being able to connect with others going back for this event. It's like an entire year of St. Patrick's Day parties."
President Obama's historic recent visit to Myanmar -- the first ever by a sitting U.S. president -- is adding to already heated-up interest in the country, which has only fully opened to tourism in the past few years. Fodor's Bowen says it's especially attractive to people who are already well traveled and are seeking that next unknown destination.
Many tour companies are adding Myanmar trips because of demand and the U.S. Tour Operators Association's active members named Myanmar No. 1 on a list of "off-the-beaten path" countries they foresee becoming popular in 2013.
New Zealand
New Zealand received a huge boost in tourism from fans of "The Lord of the Rings" movie trilogy, and the release of the new movie "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" is focusing attention on the destination once again. All four of the movies were filmed in New Zealand.
The French port city Marseille is one of two European capitals of culture in 2013, along with the Slovakian city of Kosice. Fodor's Bowen says Marseille "has been overlooked in the past" by a lot of travelers heading to the lavender fields and wineries of Provence, but she believes it's ripe for a renaissance with new hotels, art galleries and culinary hotspots. XL Airways France is launching direct flights from New York in late May.
Several important anniversaries take place in 2013, with exhibits and events to mark them.
Gettysburg, Pa., is marking 150 years since the famous Civil War battle, which took place July 1 to 13, 1863. The town will also mark the sesquicentennial of President Abraham Lincoln's brief but brilliant 272-word speech, the Gettysburg Address, which he delivered Nov. 19, 1863, at the battlefield cemetery.
Marquee events for the battle commemoration, including re-enactments and tours, will take place June 28 to July 7, but there will be activities and programs throughout the year. On July 1, the new Seminary Ridge Museum opens in a building that was used as a hospital for soldiers. Union Gen. John Buford also used the structure's cupola to scout the countryside on the battle's first day.
Dallas plans a ceremony to mark 50 years since the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, at the exact time and place where shots rang out: Dealey Plaza, Nov. 22, 12:25 p.m. The ceremony will begin with church bells tolling and a moment of silence, followed by a reading of Kennedy's speeches, songs, prayers and a military flyover.
Special programming is also planned by many other sites, from the Newseum in Washington, D.C., to the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas, located in a building where a sniper's nest and rifle were found following the shooting.
Saratoga, N.Y., is planning a May to September celebration with festivals and concerts marking the 150th anniversary of the race course, where watching the horses remains a fun and popular pastime. The town is also known for upscale eateries and lodging along with Saratoga Spa State Park, with its beautiful pools and natural springs.
New York's Grand Central Terminal kicks off its centennial Feb. 1 with a rededication of the landmarked Beaux Arts station. Performances, lectures, exhibits and tours are planned throughout the year.
Florida is marking the state's 500th anniversary of European discovery and exploration, with events in all 67 counties.
Theme parks
Next summer will see the popular 3-D ride based on the "Transformers" movies opening at Universal's theme park in Orlando. "Transformers: The Ride -- 3D" previously opened this past May at Universal Studios Hollywood in Los Angeles.
At Disneyland in California, spring will see the opening of Fantasy Faire, located at Fantasyland and dedicated to Disney heroes and heroines. At Disney World near Orlando, Fla., a new attraction called Princess Fairytale Hall, where guests can meet Disney princesses, is also scheduled to open in 2013.
Princess Fairytale Hall will be located at the Magic Kingdom's New Fantasyland, which opened in early December, doubling the size of the original Fantasyland. Both parks are offering weekly surprises for guests as part of a yearlong 2013 program called Limited Time Magic.
The beach, post-Sandy
Superstorm Sandy destroyed beaches, boardwalks and waterfront attractions all along the mid-Atlantic coast. Many communities on the Jersey shore, the beloved pier in Ocean City, Md., and elsewhere are hoping to have infrastructure rebuilt by summer.
On Coney Island, in Brooklyn, N.Y., the landmark Cyclone and Wonder Wheel rides are in good condition along with other amusement park attractions and are expected to reopen in spring as usual, along with the famous hot dog eatery Nathan's and the home stadium for the Cyclones minor league baseball team.
The New York Aquarium at Coney has been closed because of damage from flooding but hopes to reopen some if not all exhibits by summer.

A Dedicated Man
A Dedicated Man (Mass Market Paperback)
A dedicated man is dead in the Yorkshire dales -- a former university professor, wealthy historian and archaeologist who loved his adopted village. It is a particularly heinous slaying, considering the esteem in which the victim, Harry Steadman, was held by his neighbors and colleagues -- by everyone, it seems, except the one person who bludgeoned the life out of the respected scholar and left him half-buried in a farmer's field.
Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks left the violence of London behind for what he hoped would be the peaceful life of a country policeman. But the brutality of Steadman's murder only reinforces one ugly, indisputable truth: that evil can flourish in even the most bucolic of settings. There are dangerous secrets hidden in the history of this remote Yorkshire community that have already led to one death. And Banks will have to plumb a dark and shocking local past to find his way to a killer before yesterday's sins cause more blood to be shed.

Constraint programming is a style of programming where relations between variables are stated in the form of constraints. This form of programming was first made popular by logic programming languages such as Prolog but the style is now also used outside logic programming specific languages. Constraints differ from the common primitives of other programming languages in that they do not specify one or more steps to execute but rather the properties of a solution to be found. If you want use a constraint-specific programming language, maybe Prolog is for you, if however you like Groovy, but want to apply a touch of constraint style flavor to your code, read on to learn about Gecode/J, Choco and tuProlog integration possibilities.
Gecode/J is a Java interface for the Gecode C++ constraint programming library. Let's have a look at making the Money example from the Gecode/J library a bit Groovier. If you haven't seen the example before, it involves solving the following puzzle:
How can I replace the letters in the puzzle with numbers so that the numbers add up in the expected way? See here for further details.
A little helper library
First we can create a little helper library to make our subsequent code a little Groovier:
A Groovy Solution
Here is how we could now code the solution.
It relies on the same
Options class used in the original Java example.
Running this code (we used the latest HEAD version of Groovy on Java 6 with the following JVM argument,
-Djava.library.path=C:\Geocode\bin) yields:
Running the program with the
-gui command line argument yields the following GUI display:
It would be fun to take this example a little further with a proper DSL to define the constraints.
Choco is a java library for constraint satisfaction problems (CSP), constraint programming (CP) and explanation-based constraint solving (e-CP). It is built on an event-based propagation mechanism with backtrackable structures. It's a great alternative to Gecode/J especially if you want a Java only solution.
Choco Magic Squares
We'll look at solving the Magic Square problem (though we haven't coded up making the diagonals add up too, just the rows and columns). Converting this example to Groovy yields:
And has this output:
Going Further
We can have a little more fun with this example. First, let's make the diagonals also add up:
Now, let's also make the left kite (defined as below):
Also add up to the magic square value:
Finally, let's make the middle columns in the bottom row equal to '1514':
Let's see what solutions we now have:
Which yields the following results:
The third solution in this list matches the famous Albrecht Dürer engraving.
This engraving has the following properties (from wikipedia):
The order-4 magic square in Albrecht Dürer's engraving Melancholia I is believed to be the first seen in European art. The sum 34 can be found in the rows, columns, diagonals, each of the quadrants, the center four squares, the corner squares, the four outer numbers clockwise from the corners (3+8+14+9) and likewise the four counter-clockwise (the locations of four queens in the two solutions of the 8 queens puzzle), the two sets of four symmetrical numbers (2+8+9+15 and 3+5+12+14) and the sum of the middle two entries of the two outer columns and rows (e.g. 5+9+8+12), as well as several kite-shaped quartets, e.g. 3+5+11+15; the two numbers in the middle of the bottom row give the date of the engraving: 1514.
tuProlog is a Java-based light-weight Prolog for Internet applications and infrastructures. It offers numerous integration options: allowing Prolog syntax to be used in the form of theories; programatic theory construction using a Java-based API; and mechanisms to call back into Groovy and Java from Prolog.
Magic Squares
We can code up an order 3 Magic square problem as follows:
The result is:
2 7 6 9 5 1 4 3 8
Family Trees
Finally, here is a Groovy version of everyone's first Prolog program, which demonstrates the simplest of relational reasoning:
The Prolog engine will determine that Tom's ancestors are: bob, liz, ann, pat & jim
ancestor(tom,X) = ancestor(tom,bob) ancestor(tom,X) = ancestor(tom,liz) ancestor(tom,X) = ancestor(tom,ann) ancestor(tom,X) = ancestor(tom,pat) ancestor(tom,X) = ancestor(tom,jim) no solution found

Many happy returns
The special 'return ticket' that allows free entry for a week, is back in operation at the National Botanic Garden for the Easter holidays – and this year it will stay all summer long.
Anyone buying a ticket to the Garden between now (Friday March 22) and the end of September will be allowed back in FREE of charge for seven days after their visit – and as many times as they like!
Default Gallery Type Template
This is the default gallery type template, located in:
If you're seeing this, it's because the gallery type you selected has not provided a template of it's own.Head of marketing David Hardy said: "We trialled this last August after getting lots of feedback from visitors about how they weren't able to see everything they wanted to in one go.
"We do like to tell people 'You won't be able to see it all in a day' but folks from out of the area not familiar with the Garden are often caught out. This is a good way of ensuring that, if they want to come back and see some more, they can – and free of charge."
But the offer isn't just open to tourists; the 'return ticket' deal is available to everyone: "There's so much going on here over Easter, the spring and all through the summer, we're sure local people will want to take advantage of this, too," he added.
When you add Waun Las National Nature Reserve and the magical wooded valley of Pont Felin Gât to the formal 'core' Garden area, you have just under 600 acres. There is also much to see, including the wonderful images from the International Garden Photographer of the Year competition, which are on show in the Gallery and Restaurant, and the fabulous fungi exhibition "From Another Kingdom" in the Great Glasshouse.
This summer also sees a packed programme of family fun activities including outdoor theatre, food and craft events, falconry and meerkats.
So it definitely makes sense to give yourself plenty of time to enjoy the Garden and its many facets to the full.
The 'Return Ticket' will apply to all full price admission bought between March 20th and September 30th 2013.

MOSCOW -- A meteor streaked across the sky and exploded over Russia's Ural Mountains with the power of an atomic bomb Friday, its sonic blasts shattering countless windows and injuring nearly 1,000 people.
The spectacle deeply frightened many Russians, with some elderly women declaring that the world was coming to an end. Many of the injured were cut by flying glass as they flocked to windows to see what the source was for such an intense flash of light.
The meteor -- estimated to be about 10 tons -- entered the Earth's atmosphere at a hypersonic speed of at least 54,000 kph (33,000 mph) and shattered into pieces about 30-50 kilometers (18-32 miles) above the ground, the Russian Academy of Sciences said in a statement.
Amateur video showed an object speeding across the sky about 9:20 a.m. local time, just after sunrise, leaving a thick white contrail and an intense flash.
There was panic. People had no idea what was happening, said Sergey Hametov, a resident of Chelyabinsk, a city of 1 million about 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) east of Moscow.
We saw a big burst of light, then went outside to see what it was and we heard a really loud, thundering sound, he told The Associated Press by telephone.
The meteor released several kilotons of energy above the region, the science academy said. The shock wave blew in an estimated 100,000 square meters (more than 1 million square feet) of glass, according to city officials.
The meteor hit less than a day before Asteroid 2012 DA14 is to make the closest recorded pass of an asteroid to the Earth -- about 17,150 miles (28,000 kilometers). But the European Space Agency in a tweet said its experts had determined there was no connection -- just cosmic coincidence.
The Russian meteor was probably about 2 meters (6 1/2 feet) across, about the size of an SUV, said Richard Binzel, a professor of Planetary Science at MIT.
The Interior Ministry said 985 people sought medical care after the shock wave and 44 of them were hospitalized. Most of the injuries were caused by flying glass, it said.
There was no immediate word on any deaths or anyone struck by space fragments.
Meteors typically cause sizeable sonic booms when they enter the atmosphere because they are traveling so much faster than the speed of sound. Injuries on the scale reported Friday, however, are extraordinarily rare.
I went to see what that flash in the sky was about, recalled resident Marat Lobkovsky. And then the window glass shattered, bouncing back on me. My beard was cut open, but not deep. They patched me up. It's OK now.
Another resident, Valya Kazakov, said some elderly women in his neighborhood started crying out that the world was ending.
Lessons had just started at Chelyabinsk schools when the meteor exploded, and officials said 204 schoolchildren were among those injured.
Yekaterina Melikhova, a high school student whose nose was bloody and whose upper lip was covered with a bandage, said she was in her geography class when they saw a bright light outside.
After the flash, nothing happened for about three minutes. Then we rushed outdoors. I was not alone, I was there with Katya. The door was made of glass, a shock wave made it hit us, she said.
Russian television ran footage of athletes at a city sports arena who were showered by shards of glass from huge windows. Some of them were still bleeding.
City officials said 3,000 buildings in the city were damaged by the shock wave, including a zinc factory where part of the roof collapsed.
The vast implosion of glass windows exposed many residents to the bitter cold as temperatures in the city hovered around minus 9 Celsius (15.8 Fahrenheit).
The regional governor immediately urged any workers who can pane windows to rush to the area to help out.
Some fragments fell in a reservoir outside the town of Chebarkul, the regional governor's office said, according to the ITAR-Tass.
