Mariah Carey says her dislocated shoulder injury was similar to the pain she experienced when giving birth to her twins, Moroccan and Monroe.
Mariah Carey has likened her painful shoulder injury to giving birth.
The '#Beautiful' hitmaker has been confined to a sling since July after taking a severe fall and dislocating her shoulder on the set of a music video, and she says the traumatic experience was not too dissimilar to the pain she felt giving birth to two-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe.
She told E! News: ''I feel like I have suffered the toughest experience of my life about several things; one was having twins and anybody who's ever had multiples will know it is one of the most difficult experiences ever but the reward is just beyond - I can't even explain how rewarding having these babies is for me. But yeah, breaking my rib was not festive. Dislocating my shoulder was not a good thing, either.''
Earlier this month, the 43-year-old songbird lamented on her tough road to recovery, telling fans her dislocated shoulder has been the ''toughest experience'' of her life in an emotional open letter posted on her Facebook page.
She wrote: ''When people expected me to go, 'Here I am, I'm back and everything's great', it didn't happen because my hand was still in tremendous pain and it took this long for it to heal.''
However, Mariah - who is married to 'America's Got Talent' host Nick Cannon - has had a fairly quick recovery period, exceeding the expectations of her doctors.
She added: ''It's a huge deal, it should have taken eight months and even my doctors can't believe it. It's been a long journey, the physical therapists have been incredible and I am very grateful to all of them for helping me.''

PALESTINIAN demonstrates in Beitunia 370.

It has been 64 years since the United Nations General Assembly approved the
Partition Plan for Palestine and the struggle to implement a "two-state
solution" began. Today we are no closer to that end.It reminds me
of that definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and
expecting different results. By that definition, everyone who continues to cling
to the delusion of a two-state solution is insane. There is no such thing as a
two-state solution. It cannot work, it has not worked, and it will not
work.The only viable solution for the Middle East is a one-state
solution: one, contiguous Israeli state from the Jordan River to the
Mediterranean Sea. There will not and cannot be lasting peace in the Middle East
until then.Ever since the Palestinians and Arab countries refused to
accept the Mandate for Palestine, the original two-state solution, the
international community has been catering to Palestinian and Arab demands for a
divided Israel. The Palestinians and Arabs, however, have repeatedly
rejected these proposals, including the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan for
Palestine, which they now are using to justify their demands for a divided
Israel. Enough is enough.Why is the international community continuing
to kowtow to these demands, when for 64 years the Palestinians and the Arabs
have actively worked against peace? Israel is the only country in the region
that has shown that it wants and will work toward peace. Since 1947, the
Palestinian and Arab countries have fought more than five wars against Israel
over territory, and each opportunity a victorious Israel returned land it
acquired in exchange for peace.The Palestinians have broken their word
again and again. They continue to intentionally fire rockets at innocent Israeli
families and children, and they have betrayed the fundamental tenet of the
two-state solution they tout by cutting Israel out of negotiations and going
directly to the United Nations.Moreover, the Palestinian Authority
continues to incite violence against Israelis. It pays the salaries of
imprisoned terrorists convicted of killing Israelis and glorifies suicide
bombers at public events. The PA's magazine Zayzafuna recently presented Hitler
as a role model for the Palestinian youth on account of all the Jews he had
killed.Most importantly, how can a people divided between radically
different and violently opposed factions possibly govern a single state
overnight? Right now, the Palestinians are divided between Hamas in the Gaza
Strip and Fatah in the West Bank. These factions fought a civil war no more than
5 years ago and are fundamentally irreconcilable. Who will then govern a unified
Palestinian state? The two-state solution can never work when one of those
states, the Palestinian state, does not even acknowledge the other state's
(Israel's) very right to exist and has as its entire purpose to wipe Israel off
the face of the earth. Never will peace come when one side possesses such hate
and routinely expresses that hate through violence and blood.It is time
to let go of the two-state solution insanity and adopt the only solution that
will bring true peace to the Middle East – a single Israeli state from the
Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. Israel is the only country in the region
dedicated to peace and the only power capable of stable, just and democratic
government in the region.This solution is the best one for everyone,
especially the Palestinians. They will trade their two corrupt and inept
governments and societies for a stable, free and prosperous one. Those
Palestinians that wish to may leave their Fatah and Hamas-created slums and move
to the original Palestinian state – Jordan. The British Mandate for Palestine
created Jordan as the country for the Palestinians. It was the only
justification for its creation. Even now, 75 percent of its population is
of Palestinian descent. Those Palestinians that remain behind in Israel will
maintain limited voting power, but will be awarded all the economic and civil
rights of Israeli citizens. They will be free to raise a family, start a
business and live in peace, all of which are impossible under Arab
rule.The two-state solution has failed. Only a one state solution – a
single, undivided Israel – will bring peace, security, and prosperity to
Israelis and Palestinians alike. It's time for the United States to lead on
this. For over 60 years, peace has been the goal, common sense and basic human
morality have been ignored, and peace has not come. We've had it
backwards all these years: the goal should not be peace at all costs. The goal
should be a strong, free and prosperous Israel. The United States should not be
some honest broker between two sides but rather publicly stand with one side –
Israel. Then, and only then, will real peace truly come.The

Israel Allies Caucus.

Brief Summary
Comprehensive Description
The Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) occues in the Western Atlantic from Bermuda and North Carolina (U.S.A.) to Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), including the entire Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. It has been reported twice from West Africa (Ivory Coast). (Holthuis 1991)
Range Description
Distribution and ecology
Physical Description
Maximum body length of the Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) is about 45 cm, with an average length of about 20 cm (Holthuis 1991).
Diagnostic Description
The Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) has an antennular plate with 4 large spines arranged in a square; there are no scattered small spinules. The third maxilliped has an exopod with a flagellum. The transverse grooves of the abdominal somites have margins that are straight, not crenulated, where interrupted, they gradually narrow toward the middle of the body, rather than end abruptly. The color of the abdominal somites is reddish, brownish, or sometimes greenish, without transverse colour bands. A large eyespot of whitish or yellowish, surrounded by a dark colour, is present over the anterior end of the base of the pleura of abdominal somite 2; a similar (even slightly larger) spot is present on the anterolateral parts of somite 6. The tail fan has a broad transverse reddish band along or just before the posterior margin. (Holthuis 1991)
Look Alikes
Habitat and Ecology
In Florida, they typically moult 2 - 3 times a year from March to July, and December to February (Williams 1984). The timing of moulting is affected by water temperature/ geographic region (M.J. Butler, A.C. Cockcroft, A.B. MacDiarmid and R.A.Wahle pers. comm. 2008).
Egg production in females has been shown to be greatly reduced in fished populations, compared to unexploited populations, with females in the exploited population producing only 12% of eggs (Lyons et al. 1981). Age at maturity is estimated at 2 years, and longevity at 12 years (Chávez 2001) although individuals of 20 years have been noted (Ehrhardt 2005). Furthermore, size at maturity differs with locality. Estimates for size at 50% maturity range from 81 mm (CL) in Cuba, to 92 mm (CL) in Colombia (FAO 2001).

The Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) inhabits shallow waters, occasionally down to 90 meters and possibly even deeper. It is found among rocks, on reefs, in eelgrass beds, and in other habitats habitat that provide protection. (Holthuis 1991)
Trophic Strategy
Life History and Behavior
The Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) is gregarious and migratory. Females move to deeper water for spawning and there are mass migrations in the autumn when the animals, in single files of up to 50 individuals, move together in a certain direction during the day, each animal having body contact with the next via their antennae. (Holthuis 1991)
In the northern part of its range, larvae of the Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) are found mainly from June to December (Holthuis 1991).
Evolution and Systematics
Functional Adaptations
Functional adaptation
Antennules of the spiny lobster trap water to identify odors using chemosensory hairs.
"…lobster olfactory antennules hydrodynamically alter the spatiotemporal patterns of concentration in turbulent odor plumes. As antennules flick, water penetrates their chemosensory hair array during the fast downstroke, carrying fine-scale patterns of concentration into the receptor area. This spatial pattern, blurred by flow along the antennule during the downstroke, is retained during the slower return stroke and is not shed until the next flick." (Koehl et al. 2001:1948)

Four stocks have been identified by the FAO (2001) according to the nature of the coastal shelf and prevailing currents which thereby affect recruitment. These stocks detail the major lobster producing countries, although there are many other countries that also utilize this resource:
Southern Stock: Brazil, Venezuela, Dominican Republic and Lesser Antilles.
South Central Stock: Colombia, Nicaragua, Honduras and Jamaica.
North Central Stock: Mexico, Belize and southern Cuba.
Northern Stock: North Cuba, USA (Florida), Bahamas, Turks and Caicos and Bermuda.
Landings of this species over the last 50-60 years, have fluctuated significantly, peaking at 37,500 tonnes in 1995/1996. Both the Northern and Southern stocks have shown an increase in landings, while the South Central stock appears to have stabilized, and the North central stock has shown a decline (FAO 2006). The biggest producing countries include Cuba, the Bahamas, Brazil, Nicaragua and the USA, which in 1998 accounted for over 88% of the global landings. This species is harvested using a number of gear types including traps, gill nets, by hand (divers), and aggregating devices known as 'pesqueros' or 'casitas' (FAO 2006).
Bahamas: Stock biomass abundance (as estimated from length cohort analysis) is reported to be showing a declining trend of 33% between 1992 and 2001 when it peaked at 24 million pounds and declined to 16 million pounds. There has also been a decline in the average size of lobsters since 1991/1992 when average tail weight peaked at 7.95 oz and declined to ~7.45 in 2001/2002 (Gittens and Braynen 2002).
Bermuda: Between the 1950s and early 1970s catches of this species fluctuated between 150 and 200 tonnes with a peak in 1968 at 250 tonnes. As of the 1970s there was a decline in catch to between 10 and 40 tonnes per annum. This decline in landings is likely a result of a conservation program started in 1975 which prohibited the removal of individuals less than 92 mm (CL); a closed fishing season between 1st April and 31st August over the breeding season; prohibition of the removal of berried females; protection of juveniles in nursery areas around the North Shore and inshore waters of the sounds and harbours (Evans and Evans 1995). Catch per unit effort (CPUE) is seen as an appropriate index of abundance when studying the Bermuda population, as annual sea temperatures fluctuate very little in this region and thereby have little effect on the catchability coefficient. During the period 1975-1986 there was an overall increase in CPUE from just 0.4 lobsters trap/ haul to above 0.6 lobsters trap/ haul (Evans and Evans 1995). During the period 1996-2001 CPUE was reported as relatively stable for the offshore fishery while the inshore fishery has shown a declining trend. In 2001/2002 fishing effort was reduced; total landings were still down in this season but CPUE was significantly higher (2.29 in 2001/2002 compared to 1.70 in 2000/2001) (Trott, Luckhurst and Medley 2002).
Belize: There has been a significant decline in the CPUE in the spiny lobster fishery in this region from ~1.2 kg/trap in 1965 to 0.6 kg/trap in 1997. There are also reports that 10% of the landings consist of undersized individuals (Carcamo 2003).
Brazil: Since 1959, there has been a significant increase in the landings of this species from 1,000 tonnes to over 10,000 tonnes in the early 1990's. There has since been a subsequent decline to annual landings ranging from 6,000 to 8,000 tonnes (FISHSTAT Plus 2000). During the period 1974 to 1993 CPUE declined from ~0.30 to ~0.15 (FAO 2001), a decline of ~50%. Abundance estimates (estimated by tuned length cohort analysis) show a significant decline since 1993 from ~25 to 30 million down to around 15 million in 1997. During this period there was a number of new fishing vessels entering the fleet, as well as an increase in the use of gillnets, traps, scuba divers and free divers. However the stock abundance of this fishery is largely driven by variable levels of recruitment which are brought about by environmental changes such as ENSO events. This in combination with a growing intensity in the fishing fleet could result in ongoing declines in abundance (FAO 2001).
Cuba: There are four lobster management zones in Cuba: North Western which accounts for approximately 2% of the landings; North Eastern which accounts for approximately 15% of the landings; Gulf of Batabano which accounts for approximately 60% of the landings; South Eastern which accounts for approximately 23% of the landings (Cruz and Adriano 2001). In 1953, landings of this species increased from approximately 1,000 tonnes per year to a peak of 13,578 tonnes in 1985. There has since been a subsequent decline to 4,401 tonnes in 2006. This species is of huge economic importance to Cuba and represents approximately 60% of the country's gross income from fisheries (Baisre and Cruz 1994). The particularly high landings from 1978 to 1988 was largely due to an increase in fishing effort. Cruz and Phillips (1994) found the number of pesqueros deployed on the fishery rose from 440,000 in 1975 to 856,000 in 1983 and 1,230,600 in 1987, as well as strict compliance with minimum legal size limits, and the closed fishing season (Puga et al. 1992). The decline in catch as of 1988 may be in part due to hurricane Gilbert which is thought to have affected lobster nursery grounds (Cruz Font 2002). Ninety percent of the lobster catch is comprised of lobsters aged 2 to 6 with 55% aged 3 to 4 (Cruz Font 2002). In the report by Cruz Font (2002) their calculations indicate that an increase in current fishing effort could result in higher catch as actual fishing mortality is lower than maximum yield, however this does not take account of the resulting effect on spawning stock biomass. The authors recommend that instead of defining a biological reference point (BRP) based on yield per recruit such as Fmax and F0.1 , they recommend adopting a view which focuses on spawning stock or egg production in order to preserve reproductive potential (calculated as reference fishing mortality Fx% representing a spawning stock biomass per recruit that is x% of that with no fishing). A BRP of 35-50%, based on spawning biomass, is recommended.
Jamaica: There has been an ongoing increase in the landings of this species since the early 1980's. Landings then peaked at ~700 tonnes in 2005. During this time intensity of the fishing fleet has increased significantly, however CPUE data is not available due to lack of cooperation from fishers (Kelly 2002).
Nicaragua: Over the history of this fishery, effort has increased linearly. Rates of fishing mortality (F) have reached levels of 0.53 per year while natural mortality is calculated at 0.35 per year. Regulations include annual fishing quotas which are defined by changes in annual recruitment; prohibition of fishing during periods of maximum recruitment and egg-laying (May-June); prohibition on removal of berried females. However at present there is no effective means to monitor or control these regulations. There has also been a decline in the mean length of individuals being harvested from 163 mm in 1990/1991 to 159 mm in 2002/2003 indicating growth-overfishing. Biomass estimates were obtained by means of length cohort analysis and indicate considerable fluctuations over the period 1990 - 2002. In the season 1998/1999 abundance fell to below 3,636 tonnes, while in season 1999/2000 it exceeded 5,454 tonnes but subsequently declined to below 3,636 tonnes in 2001/2002. The decline in 1998/1999 could be related to the effect of hurricane Mitch on nursery grounds and thereby affecting recruitment (Navarro 2002).
Puerto Rico: Over the period 1988-2001, landings of this species rose from ~150,000 pounds to 250,000-300,000 pounds per year (Matos-Caraballo et al. 2007). During this time CPUE for each gear type has also shown an increase. Average size of individuals has increased from the period 1988-1994 to 1995-2001 perhaps as a result of good enforcement of the minimum size limit (Matos-Caraballo et al. 2007).
Florida, United States of America-Since the 1970s the landings of this species have been fairly stable with some fluctuation occurring. Prior to this CPUE peaked at over 100 lbs/trap and then declined to ~10 lbs/trip in 1975. Since the fishing season of 1990/1991 the catch rate per trip has been steadily increasing from ~0.75 pounds/trip to ~1.12 pounds/trip in 1999/2000. Spawning stock biomass of females has also increased during the period 1993/1994 - 1999/2000 from ~2.5 million pounds to ~3 million pounds, while male biomass has shown some variability between ~1.8 and ~2.3 million pounds (Muller et al. 2000). Recruitment levels appear to be higher following the Trap Reduction Program which was implemented in 1992/1993, with numbers of age 2 lobsters rising from an average of 9.1 million lobsters, to 12.6 million lobsters (Muller et al. 2000). In 2000, Matthews considered the fishery to be in a stable state.
Venezuela: During the period 1950-1977, the landings of this species fluctuated between 100-200 tonnes per annum. Between 1977 and 1993 the landings then showed more dramatic fluctuations between 250 and 1200 tonnes per annum. This was followed by a subsequent decline to approximately 100 tonnes from 1998-2001 but has since shown an increase to approximately 1,100 tonnes. There is no formal data on fishing effort in Venezuela although sporadic reports have been made by Parque Nacional Archipiélago los Roques (PNALR). From 1994 to 1997, free divers CPUE is said to have decreased significantly (5,157 kg per diver per season to 2,966 kg per diver per season), while trap catches are thought to have increased during this same period from 80.2 kg per trap per season, to 93.2 kg per trap per season in 1996, and 90.8 kg per trap per season in 1997 (FAO 2001). At present ~95% of the landings of this species are derived from Los Roques Archipelago National Park (Yallonardo et al. 2001). Size frequency of lobsters taken during the period 1986-1988 and 1998-1999 did not differ significantly indicating that growth overfishing does not appear to be a problem. Mean CPUE by trapping increased from 2.29 kg/trap/month in 1986-1988, to 2.31 kg/trap/month in 1998-1999, and CPUE by diving increased from 133 kg/diver/month in 1986-1988, to 155.65 kg/diver/month in 1998-1999 (Yallonardo et al. 2001). While a decline in the landings was noted in the trap fishery (158,363 kg to 93,555 kg) this is likely related to a decline in the number of traps being used over this time period (275 traps to 225 traps) (Yallonardo et al. 2001). While the conclusion of this study implicates stability in the fishery, the authors note that only a single data point was used for the period 1986-1988.
Population Trend
Conservation Actions
There are regulations in place governing the harvesting of this species within part of its range. There is a legal minimum size of 69 mm (carapace length) and a closed season of 120 days from February to May, in order to safeguard reproducing females during the spawning period, to protect new recruits, and to allow the growth and increase in weight of the population (Phillips and Melville-Smith 2006). Furthermore, strict control is also exercised over the prohibition of the taking of berried females, as well as the number of fishing gears and boats utilized, and boat replacement (Baisre and Cruz 1994).
Further research is needed to determine an appropriate index of abundance for the global population of this species, and to what extent it is impacted upon by threats within its range.
Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
The Caribbean Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) is the most important commercial palinurid in American waters. It is fished practically throughout its range. The catches of this species reported in the FAO Yearbook of Fisheries Statistics amounted to 32,854 metric tons in 1987 and 33,903 metric tons in 1988, with most of the catch taken by Cuba, Brazil, Bahamas, the U.S.A, and Honduras. The species is mostly caught with traps, but is also taken by hand, speared, and trawled. It is marketed fresh; the tails are exported frozen or canned. (Holthuis 1991)
Panulirus argus
Panulirus argus, the Caribbean spiny lobster,[2] is a species of spiny lobster that lives on reefs and in mangrove swamps in the western Atlantic Ocean.
P. argus have long, cylindrical bodies covered with spines. Two large spines form forward-pointing "horns" above the eyestalks. They are generally olive greenish or brown, but can be tan to mahogany. There is a scattering of yellowish to cream-colored spots on the carapace and larger (usually four to six) yellow to cream-colored spots on the abdomen. They have no claws (pincers). The first pair of antennae are slender, black or dark brown and biramous. The second pair of antennae are longer than the body, and covered with forward pointing spines. The bases of the second antennae are thick, can have a bluish tinge, and are likewise covered with rows of spines. The legs are usually striped longitudinally with blue and yellow and terminate in a single spine-like point. The somites of the abdomen are smooth and have a shallow furrow across the middle. Each has pairs of swimmerets on the underside that are yellow and black. The lobes of the tail are colored similarly to the swimmerets.
P. argus may reach up to 60 cm (24 in) long, but typically around 20 cm (7.9 in), and is fished throughout its range.[2] Sexual maturity in females is reached at a carapace length of 54–80 mm (2.1–3.1 in).[3]
Like most decapods, P. argus hatches from eggs carried externally by the female for around four weeks.[3] They begin life as a free-swimming, microscopic phyllosoma larvae. After about one year,the larvae settle in algae (Laurencia sp., Neogoniolithon sp.),[4] in Thalassia testudinum seagrass beds or among mangrove roots. After undergoing several molts, they migrate to the coral reefs and live in holes or crevices.[3] As they grow, they molt or shed their exoskeleton to make room for their larger bodies. As in other decapods, after molting, the new exoskleton or shell is soft, and has to harden. During this time, the lobster is highly vulnerable to predation and as a result they are usually very retiring until the new exoskleton hardens fully. The diet is mostly composed of mollusks,[3] but they also consume detritus, vegetable material, and dead animals and fish they find on the bottom.
P. argus is a nocturnal species, taking to cover during the day. They serve as prey for skates, nurse sharks, octopuses, snappers and groupers.[3] Although they generally prefer to remain near cover, at times groups of hundreds will line up and march across the floor off Florida and the Bahamas.[3] The purpose of these migrations is not known, but they generally occur in the fall and may be in response to the onset of autumn storms.[3]
Individuals can be found at depths of up to 100 m (330 ft) from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to Beaufort, North Carolina,[3] including the Caribbean Sea, the Bahamas and Bermuda,[3] with occasional reports from West Africa.[2] Although they range throughout the entire Gulf of Mexico, in the northern portions of the Gulf they generally are only found at depths of 33 m (108 ft) and greater due to the seasonal variation in the water temperature. Around the southern portion of the Florida peninsula and throughout the Bahamas and Caribbean, they are found in shallower water. They generally prefer habitat with some sort of cover and can be found around coral reefs, artificial reefs, sponges, bridge pilings, wooden bridge bumpers, piers, and under the prop roots of mangroves.
Human consumption[edit]
P. argus is a popular seafood item for human consumption.[2] It is the most important food export of the Bahamas, and rivals the shrimp industry in the Florida Keys in commercial value. They are eagerly sought by both commercial lobstermen and sport divers in South Florida, the Caribbean, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.
In Florida, there is a season where the spiny lobster may be taken, usually from the beginning of August to the end of March, to protect the species during its main breeding season. A special "mini season" a few days before the start of the regular lobster season gives recreational divers a "head start" in catching them. Divers catch them by gloved hand, often "tickling" them out of their dens with a dowel or small stick. In the Bahamas and Caribbean, they are often also speared or gigged (Florida game regulations prohibit taking them by these methods). In Bermuda, licensed individuals can only take lobsters by free-diving and using an approved noose within designated areas; all other methods and use of air tanks are prohibited. Commercial fisherman typically use lobster traps similar to those used by lobster fishermen in New England. The traps are usually baited with dead fish or chicken necks.
Lobsters can be cooked in many ways, a popular method in the Caribbean is to grill the lobster after splitting and seasoning.
Common names[edit]
Other common names for the species in the United States include spiny lobster, Bermuda spiny lobster, common spiny lobster, crawfish, Florida spiny lobster, West Indian langouste and West Indian spiny lobster.[2]

It works very well as there are a ton of calories in it. The nice thing is, it's easy to cut back when you see the results that you need! Great with bananas, perfect for smoothies! You'll likely find that you need to use a lot so the container isn't all that big. I'd suggest ordering two if you really need this product!

Continuing the trend of home teams in the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs, the Giants lost to the Eagles Sunday, just like the Panthers and Titans lost on Saturday. The Eagles took care of Eli Manning's crew 23-11.
Eli Manning finished 15-29 for 169 yards and zero touchdowns. Manning was touched for two interceptions, with one of them landing in the hands of former Patriots corner Asante Samuel.
It's a bittersweet feeling to see the New York Giants knocked out of the playoffs today, because it was at the expense of Asante Samuel's Eagles. The problem with that is that Samuel couldn't come down with an interception in the waning moments of last year's Super Bowl, which would've ensured perfection for the Patriots.
Anyway, congrats to the Giants for last year's win, but I don't know if I could've endured watching the Giants celebrate once again.
To be honest, it kind of makes you appreciate the Patriots winning three Super Bowls in four years earlier this decade. When no recent Super Bowl winners (Giants, Colts, Steelers) made it back to the big game the next season, it really shows the parody in the NFL.

Should the Indiana Pacers Bring Back Danny Granger This Season?
A preseason knee-injury has cost Danny Granger most of his eighth season in the NBA. While he was able to make a brief comeback a month ago, the 6-foot-8 forward has only manged to suit up five times this season for the Indiana Pacers.
Now, a recent setback with the knee–and not much word coming from the Pacers camp–has many wondering when exactly Granger will be ready to go.
That all leads to the ultimate question: should the Pacers bring back Granger at all this season?
Let's tackle the injury aspect of that question first. Granger has patellar tendinosis, which is also known as "jumper's knee."
Mike Wells of the Indianapolis Star recently talked to Dr. Christopher Kaeding, an orthopedic surgeon at Ohio State University Sports Medicine, about this type of injury.
"You start to feel better, but as soon as you get back and you start going hard, it's not uncommon for the pain to come back," Kaeding told the Indianapolis Star. "That's why it's such a challenging problem."
Kaeding went on to mention how this issue can cause so much pain that it can make it difficult for people to walk up and down stairs, that there is 15 to 20 treatments for it, and that "it's not an easy problem to treat, specially in athletes who continue to be active."
I don't know about you, but none of that sounds too promising for Granger getting back to where he was anytime soon.
Now to the basketball side. The Pacers have 11 games left on their regular season schedule — which equates to 23 days. Within a few days after that, Indiana will obviously begin their first-round playoff series, leaving little time to work Granger back into the equation, figure out his new role on this current roster, and more importantly, get him back to anything close to his prime form.
While the Pacers have been hush-hush with the injury, they have said they hope to have Granger back for the playoffs. But is that the smartest idea for a team that has been successful without him? In his five games this season, he's come off the bench, but offered little in return. Is that his role if he does come back? Then who gets bumped from a rotation that has helped put the Pacers near the top of the Eastern conference standings?
And, if the Pacers do bring him off the bench in the playoffs, are they willing to risk him not being up to par with the rest of the team, and ultimately harming their potential?
There's more questions than certainties with Granger's knee and a whole lot of "ifs." Tread carefully, Pacers.

Pete Doherty.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
It's never certain what kind of show you're going to get out of the unpredictable Pete Doherty.There's the electrifying Britpop romp that recalls the days when Doherty was pegged one of the most promising songwriters and front men of his generation, and his band The Libertines were crowned the heir apparent to Oasis. And then there's the drug-addled shell of his former self – as able to curtail songs mid-tune or walk off the stage in a huff as he is to complete a semicoherent set.Israeli audiences have apparently concluded that either type of show will provide entertainment value.Tickets for Doherty's scheduled debut in the country on April 30 at Tel Aviv's Barby Club have sold so well that it's been joined by a second show on May 1. Two of Israel's top singer-songwriters will open the shows for Doherty – Rona Kenan on April 30 and Noam Rotem on May 1.Despite his heralded second coming origins more than a decade ago, the 35-year-old Doherty has squandered much of the goodwill thrown his way by living a stereotypical rock star's by-thenumbers life, including numerous arrests for drugs, failed stints in rehab, onstage meltdowns and, of course, a supermodel – a longtime relationship with Kate Moss.The tabloid fodder has tended to overshadow the fact that when he's able to focus on music, Doherty, both with The Libertines and with Babyshambles – the band he formed when he was kicked out the former for drug abuse – possesses the innate ability, charisma and musical explosiveness required of rock icons.And even though he's been out of the limelight in recent years, Doherty can still generate headlines, like he did when he gave an interview to Ynet recently and blurted out that The Libertines were going to reunite this summer."I don't know if I'm supposed to even tell you this, but we were offered to reform The Libertines for a show this July in Hyde Park. I got the call just yesterday. Well, I said yes,? Doherty revealed, according to an English translation of the interview posted on the website musicharger.com.However, in true Doherty haziness, he apparently had failed to consult with his former band mates, including co-leader Carl Barat, who recently formed a new band and plans to release a solo album later this year. Doherty did, however, further disclose that his reasons for accepting the reunion gig were not entirely artistically motivated."Not long ago I listened to The Libertines' songs on YouTube and had a burst of nostalgia, so I said what the heck," he told Ynet. "And then they told me how much they will pay us, and I cannot lie to you, I couldn't say no, at least not in my state right now. I'm in debt. It's very complicated for me to say no right now; I have financial problems."Whether it's those same financial difficulties that are prompting a Babyshambles reunion tour this summer as well as a series of "unplugged" semi-solo performances this spring which the Tel Aviv shows are part of, fans are willing to give Doherty a third and fourth chance.It's fair to say that there will be nothing scripted or show biz about his performances at the Barby next week, where he'll be accompanied by second guitarist, longtime colleague Alan Wass.Clips of recent shows have displayed a more clear-headed and robust Doherty leading the way through country, folk and rocking versions of Libertines and Babyshambles tunes, as well as a slew of rootsy covers. Like the most endearing rock & roll, they're somewhere between loose and inspired but totally authentic. Which is probably why, despite his ongoing career difficulties, the audience for Pete Doherty is still willing to follow him down some dead ends and oneway streets in the increasing likely hope of witnessing the musical magic of which he's capable.April 30 and May 1 at the Barby Club, Tel Aviv.
