Re: st: Is there a kind of stochasticity in the execution of xthtaylor?
Thu, 17 Jul 2008 10:11:33 -0500 (CDT)
Hewan Belay <email@example.com> asked why -xthtaylor- would drop a
different variable when -xthtaylor- is run at different times. He also
speculated that this was due to a problem with -xthtaylor-.
There is no problem with the results produced by -xthtaylor-, which variable
is dropped is arbitrary.
Changes in the sort order of the data are responsible for this difference.
But, it is still surprising when the variables dropped change from run to
Computers compute in finite precision. Among other things, finite
precision mathematics means that changing the order in which a group of
numbers are summed can cause minor differences in the computed sum. These
minor changes in the computed sum can alter which variable is dropped.
Dropping one of a series of perfectly collinear variables is a classic knife-edge computation. In -xthtaylor- the decision is especially complicated because it is made on the basis of transformed variables, not the original variables. In addition, these transforms are computed after sorting the data by the panel-id variable, which is not unique. I suspect that minor differences in the computed transforms are triggering a difference in the knife-edge decision of which variable is dropped.
We will change -xthtaylor- so that the sorts on the panel-id variable depend
deterministically on the original sort order of the data. This will remove
the variation from run to run, unless some other command re-sorts the data
in between runs.
If Hewan could privately send me the data and a do-file that reproduces the posted example, then I can ensure that the fix addresses the problem at hand.
In the meantime, Hewan should simply exclude one of the time dummies to
ensure that the same variables are used across runs and samples.

Regards, Barry
I agree with Barry, and TFB hives only pose a risk depending on how high the mite pressure is. If they're maintained at a low level, I would say their risk is equal to treated hives unless they're getting 100% kill and general opinion is no one gets 100% kill.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
The name is Bond.
Bond: Live and Let Die.
Those first colonies that die from mites and DWV, most certainly do have a very high mite and pathogen load.
Hives that have been treated for mites won't show anything like the DWV levels that you'll see in a treatment-free, Bond: Live and Let Die, colony.
Bombus terrestris and Bombus pascorum were described as "displaying wing deformities with 'infected Honeybees almost certainly the source of the infection (Genersch et al. 2006)" (de Miranda 2010).
Let's face the fact that we're seeing DWV, in our treatment-free hives, at a rate that isn't seen in a hive treated for mites.
It's a risk some can't seem to face.
Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

Good post libhart
I think treating our dogs, cats, livestock is a little different than some of the stuff done to treat our bees.
Some chemicals/medicines we put on the hive cause death of healthy bees and brood and it seems like the bees don't like it one bit. It's almost like putting a pack of flea-bitten dogs in a room and setting off sulpher candles to get rid of the fleas on the dogs. Most of the fleas will be gone but some of the dogs may die and all of the dogs will have not liked it and have tried escaping the fumes. Probably a poor analogy but....
We treat/medicate our furry pets much like we medicate/treat ourselves; with medicines that have minimal side effects.
I haven't treated any of my feral based hives this year. They all seem to be happy and healthy when I checked them last week.
My uncle treats his hives with a fogger and baby oil. Seems to keep his bees healthy for over 30 years.
Having read all the posts thus far, I'm not sure where to begin.
I restarted with bees in 2006 by purchasing treatment free bees. I have been treatment free since. My two best colonies this year produced 175 and 170 pounds of honey, treatment free. A couple of years ago I saw some dwv in one hive, but it disappeared by the end of the season. I have not seen more than a couple of bees in a couple of hives since then.
Treatment free does not mean leaving them alone. This year I practiced "Let alone beekeeping" which I remembered from the 1970's when Charles Koover espoused it in Gleanings in Bee Culture - some of you old timers might remember him. It was a serious mistake for me, and I wrote a thread elsewhere about that experience. I do not recommend it, and explained why there.
To blame treatment free beekeepers for the demise of native pollinators is wreckless and irresponsible. The pathogens were here before we went treatment free. The native pollinators will adapt and survive, or die off. In much the same way as my breeder provider lost 90%+ of his colonies when first hit, and bred the survivors, to develop his line of treatment free bees. I try to manage my hives to prevent swarming, but not too seriously. I don't mind swarms as it is my way to help introduce survivor bees into the feral populations. And what are you "treaters" doing to help the feral populations?
Treatment free beekeepers can be good or bad beekeepers, just like treating beekeepers can be good or bad. The treatment methodology alone does not determine the quality or competency of the beekeeper.
"If all you have is a hammer, the whole world is a nail." - A.H. Maslow
As a "Treater", I collect swarms, and do cut outs from basically "feral" populations. I do not treat these unless it becomes apparent that they will die out without help. I do not use those that do not perform well as grafting candidates. Survivability is the first rule in selection. How do I judge that? Colonies with lots of bees and lots of field force (larger honey crops) get selected. Why? Because it is those colonies that will likely propogate the species not a weak sruggling "resistant" hive. Does it cost me? Sure it does. I allow colonies to dwindle to a point prior to beginning treatment, so it costs field force, etc. which translates into lost harvest.
Several of the posters on treatment free have mentioned lack of swarming from their hives. This is not a desirable outcome. The strong should reproduce and that is what a swarm is. If your hives are not swarming then they are not adding to the feral population, except for drones. The chances of a colony that does not swarm having a lot of drones is not very high. I usually judge that a colony with a lot of drones is healthy and happy. With varroa, drones are favorites, so they are the first to fall in a hive that is overrun with varroa. So once again that struggling resistant hive is not adding much to the local feral population.
In closing I will ask these questions: Do you know of any beekeeper that would rather have to check for pathogens, access the hive against them, spend the money and time to treat for the maladies than to just place a hive and harvest honey?
I think we would all prefer to be back 30 years when that was possible. Do you?
Серёжа, Sergey
Interesting observation. It is my concern that EHB presents risk for wild bees. So, I have mixed feelings - I love my honey bees but I do aware that they may compete with native varieties. Since I introduced honey bees in my yard, I noticed that actual number of wild native bees are increased (have no explanation to this). We also have native California plants garden. Honey bees are completely uninterested in native plants - they foraged in nearby community vegetable garden and blooming trees (pepper-tree, etc). So, we have honey bees and native species leaving next to each other. At least in urban environment, I do not see a competition. I do not know if parasites and diseases transferred to wild bees from EHBs. It seems to me that honey bees used non-native sources for foraging (mainly trees, eucalyptus, for instance) and there is a niche for wild species. Combination of the native plants, wild and honey bees creates very nice "close-to-nature" environment - we have bunch of birds, butterflies etc. Also, it looks like bees had some influence on squirrels - we have much less these days.

One can easily jump to the conclusion that it was thru commercial beekeepers bees in close proximity to noncommercials, or infested packages and queens, but, what about those apiaries which were geographically isolated wherein no new bees were brought in via packages or queens and were located far beyond flight distance from any commercial operations. Areas of Essex County,NY come to mind. Schroon Lake, Moriah, Mineville, those sorts of places where folks w/ a small handful of hives eventually also had varroa mites. How did they get them? No obvious way apparent to me.
How did varroa, shb, and nosema cerana get to the US? We closed the Borders, shut down importation of Queens from Europe, back in the early 20th Century to avoid thge Isle of Wight Disease, aka tracheal mites, only to have it show up in 1984. How did that happen?
One concern amongst Apiary Inspectors is that the new crop of beekeepers w/ Treatment Free/Hands Off/Bond Beekeeping in mind will be aloof to the knowledge of bees, bee diseases and pests, the identification of those pests and diseases, to the extent that they will become reposetorys of diseases and pests.
Smaller sized beekeeping operations have been found to have higher percentages of AFB. So, smaller sized operations managed by someone w/ the idea that bees should be allowed to build their own resistance to pests and to diseases too will, I predict, be where those diseases and pests will be found more often.
The greatest defence against bee pests and dieases is knowledge and experience, not philosophy. Gain the knowledge, then decide what your philosophy should be. Going into beekeeping w/ your mind made up about how things aught to be done before you know how things work is, in my opinion, not a good way of becoming a beekeeper.
Mark Berninghausen
"To blame treatment free beekeepers for the demise of native pollinators is wreckless and irresponsible."
Well, it's more like: if you go treatment-free, you are taking the risk of spreading pests and pathogens to native species.
I think that it's important enough to consider before making a commitment to go treatment-free.
If you had a chance to read the 'RNA Viruses in Hymenopteran Pollinators' paper in the link above, you would read that pollen seems to be the way that viruses can spread amongst native pollinators.
Pollinators apparently infect the pollen, and the pollen can then infect other pollinators.
When I began keeping bees, back in the mid-1960's, I was entirely 'open' to whatever worked best and worked for me. I usually bought into, and even purchased treatment products, Fumagillin and Terramycin (to name a few), but never actually found a need to use them (a waste of money). It's been a while since then, I have learned not to waste my money on 'treatments - cures - remedies'. I have rarely lost a colony for any reason, usually those I've lost were due to my own shortcomings. Though laying workers, developing in colonies that were queenless for too long, got weak, then robbed out is where most of my losses occur.
I've had AHB usurpation swarms take over several nucs and a few full-size hives, but this doesn't usually kill a colony, just makes it trickier to maintain EHB genetics.
I know there are Varroa present, and sometimes DWV, vectored by Varroa, or maybe not just Varroa. I sometimes see a colony or two affected by what I've heard called, PMS (parasitic mite syndrome). But that usually only persists for a month or so.
I use some foundationless, some PF120 or PF100 frames, some HSC frames, a few RiteCell foundations, and a few other frames/foundations.
I remember, as I was learning about the Small Cell theory and Dee Lusby, and being warned that if I didn't 'treat', my colonies would all die within two years, or maybe three. None ever did. I began to relax from the anxiety this created in me, and haven't regretted it, yet.
Maybe someday Varroa and other pests will become a problem for my bees and I. Maybe then I'll change my tactics and begin using some of the many treatments available to me (I doubt that HopGuard will be one - it was tested here in Arizona, but never registered/labeled for use here).
I often wonder why my experiences seem to be so different from many of my fellow beekeepers. But not enough that I lose any sleep over it.
I think that the point is, treated or not, the pathogens/pests are there. If treating eliminated pathogens/pests, we'd only need to use them occasionally, because they'd eradicate the pest organisms. And, eliminating virus could only be accomplished if all the host organisms were also totally eliminated.
Treating honey bees will not stop them from sharing their pests. If it were that simple, it would work between honey bees, too. It doesn't.

48 years - 50 hives - TF
Joseph Clemens -- Website Under Constructioni
While reading this thread so far I'm struck that the treatment/non-treatment debate is masking what I think is the real crux of the matter - responsible beekeeping.
Barry noted earlier in this thread that if one's hives develop an infectious disease you need to deal with it. And I absolutely agree.
That presupposes that the beekeeper will recognize AFB and have or know the resources for positively identifying it and dealing with it. With some new beekeepers (especially those who are starting on their own without local support) over whelmed by a mid summer populous hive, who knows what is going on in there?
So education is important. And not just about honey bees but about the role they fill in the environment and what other insects are filling that role too.
I had dismissed the Xerces Society as the lunatic fringe. Nevertheless, I saw a researcher I respect was going to be speaking at a Xerces talk, so I went. The big thing I got out of the talk was that alternative pollinators are here and doing what they do; my honey bees will benefit from cultural changes on my land as much as the already existing natural pollinators do.
Like not mowing my grass fields until after the first frost. They were primarily being mowed ahead of that for aesthetics not a crop so it wasn't as big a change as it might have been. Other things I've done that are beneficial to both my honey bees and native pollinators: plant tress (Apples and Linden) to provide additional food resources at specific times of the year, not eliminate "weeds" and other undesirables in my blueberry fields, again increasing food resources. Some things I've done just for the alternative pollinators - leave a few standing dead trees, leave a few patches of bare dirt in the blueberry fields instead of trying to recover them to grow blueberries on. I don't use any ag chemicals on the blueberries and my fields don't look anything like the well manicured derocked fields I see along the roadside. But no matter, I hope my fields are healthier. To go along with that hope I now need to learn to recognize blueberry pests/diseases as the last thing I want is for my well intentioned endeavors to harm someone making their living from berries.
In beekeeping, both treatment and treatment free, I don't think we can ever stop being open minded and learning about how our activities influence the surrounding environs. I know I have much to learn. Right now I'm working on how to get the bees to make and put surplus honey in the supers. What little honey there was in the supers this fall has been fed to light hives, along with an insane (to me) amount of sugar syrup.
I'm open to the question of am I running more hives than my area can support. In this as in lots of beekeeping issues, beekeeping is really local.
No fingers should be pointed at anyone. As Mark has said, don't jump to conclusions.
i refused to sell a hive of bees this year to an individual who just wanted to park them on his property, and was not interested in managing them at all.
i remember my first summer with bees, and how overwhelmed i was in trying to work them, and how unsure i was about what was going on in there.
my concern is that it would be too easy for a beginner to adopt the 'hands off' approach, while at the same time thinking they were practicing cutting edge beekeeping.
in my view, not being open minded, and adopting an approach based more on philosophy than science, has with it the risks of spreading problems beyond one's yard.
for me, i hope i can learn skills to manage my hives in a way that allows my bees to thrive on their own. but i am not opposed to lending them a helping hand when it is indicated.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
I don't buy it. The treated hives are typhoid Mary in this regard....the syrup makes her a sexy typhoid Mary that all the bees in the neighborhood will be attracted to.
We take great pains to keep our honey free of drugs and sugar syrup.....who is responsible if my harvest is contaminated by someone else's hives being robbed?

Story highlights
- Worldwide medical tourism industry said to be growing by up to 25% each year
- The International Medical Travel Journal has staged its first annual award ceremony recognizing best treatment centers
- Malaysian facilities scooped three awards, winning in hospital, dental and fertility clinic categories
When they can see the world, save cash and get that surgery you wanted, it's no wonder that increasing numbers of travelers are hopping on a jet in search of cut-price healthcare.
The worldwide medical tourism industry is said to be growing by up to 25% each year as patients with passports head abroad for procedures costing as much as 80% less than at home.
Partly fueled by 1.2 million Americans, it's a sector now estimated to be worth up to $55 billion.
But where are the best destinations for medical tourism?
Last month, the UK-based International Medical Travel Journal staged its first annual award ceremony recognizing what it says are the top facilities offering treatment to visitors.
While many of these establishments offer care for potentially life-threatening cancer or heart problems, patients are just as likely to be seeking cosmetic work to their face, teeth or torso.
IMTJ's managing editor Keith Pollard says the awards, staged in Dubai, are the industry's first independent stamps of approval on medical tourism providers.
Airline travel discounts part of package
"All our winners exemplify the way the medical tourism industry should be run -- professional, offering exceptional patient care and providing the best possible medical outcomes," Pollard says.
The IMTJ divided its winners into categories, including best hospital, specialist patient center, dental clinic, fertility clinic, travel agency and website.
Malaysia emerged as one of the prime destinations, with victories in three categories.
Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur, a 330-bed care center that offers airline travel discounts to inbound patients on its website, took the hospital accolade.
Kuala Lumpur's Prince Court Medical Center won best fertility clinic, while its International Dental Specialist Center was named as the best place for teeth tuneups.
Jordan was named as the best overall destination for what judges said was a remarkable success in handling 250,000 international patients.

Description & Highlights
Fisher & Paykel Refrigerator with Ice and Water Dispenser
Leave it to Fisher & Paykel to rethink how to store and preserve your family's food. With the Fisher & Paykel Refrigerator (E522BXU) they were on a mission that eventually led to the creation of Active Smart, an advanced refrigeration system. Active Smart uses unique electronic intelligence to continuously monitor and adapt its cooling conditions, adjusting the flow of cold air based on daily use and climate conditions. This way it's not working overtime or under par - just smarter and more efficiently. Even the produce bins provide maximum care. Humidity controls keep lettuce green, herbs garden-fresh and fruit crisp for up to two weeks. What about the homemade gazpacho in the refrigerator, or the just-churned ice cream in the freezer? Independent sensors accurately monitor temperatures in both compartments to maintain the safest, most precise temperature.
Not only does this Fisher & Paykel model offer your family unparalleled food care, but the integrated water and ice dispenser will provide you with chilled, filtered water and clean, crisp ice cubes on demand. With no impact on space in the freezer or refrigerator door, this is the perfect addition to the Active Smart family. The E522BXU will add an elegant, modern touch to your kitchen. Its counter-depth, pre-painted cabinet allows for built-in or stand-alone applications, while the left or right-hand hinged, curved doors are available to suit any kitchen orientation. Adjustable glass shelves hold up to 220 lbs and a powerful halogen light allows maximum visibility. Choose the sophisticated fridge system where art meets science and enjoys fresher, more nutritious meals with your family.

Stable jockey Royston Ffrench was in the saddle in the concluding 1600m handicap in which Rochdale battled to victory.
The five-year-old led close home to complete the jockey's double and a trio for the trainer.
Also five, the son of Titus Livius showed great tenacity to deny Masquerader in a driving finish.
Ffrench was understandably delighted: "It has been a good night for the whole team.
"Both my winners have battled really well to win and the string are in good form.
"Crooner winning was a great effort after such a long break and a really good training performance."
In the opening 1200m Purebred Arabian handicap, Ffrench was on runner-up Firstwan when stable companion Amoking landed the spoils under Paul Devlin to initiate the trainer's treble.
UAE Champion Jockey Ted Durcan, riding for the first time in the UAE this season and runner-up in the last two races, did get his name on the scoreboard when Musabah Al Muhairi's Pearly King won the 2400m handicap.
Durcan said: "It is great to be back – especially with a winner."
Pearly King had chased home Lucky Ray a fortnight ago and Doug Watson's Lucky Ray registered his second course and distance victory of the season in the 2000m handicap.
He again made all under Daragh O'Donohoe who explained: "He loves being out in front and has dug deep when I have asked him. It was a good effort."
Watson's stable jockey, Fernando Jara, opened his account for the season when partnering Save The Secret to victory in the 1500m maiden.
It was a first runner of the season for trainer Adi Selvaratnam and Jara said: "It is nice to get a winner and I am grateful for this chance to ride in Dubai.
"Doug (Watson) has been great and I am enjoying it here."

APCNews 115 – Women reclaiming tech across the world, Pakistani presidential slip-up
APCNews – February 11 2010 – Year XI Issue 115
The news service on ICTs for social justice and sustainable development
On paper, women in India officially hold 33% of seats. However, a closer look on the ground at a rural e-governance project reveals that while women may officially have their place within the constitution, it is often their husbands who assume their roles and speak for them. Meanwhile, both in India and in other parts of the world women are speaking out in opposition to violence against women through different audio, visual and digital tools like blogs, tweets, murals and songs during the Take Back the Tech! campaign. In many Asian countries, censorship still runs high – especially where the internet is concerned. Freedom of speech advocates in Pakistan and South Korea have recently had to fight government censorship. Find out more and support their causes.
YouTube blocked in Pakistan: Government attempts to hide President's slip-up
ISLAMABAD (Bytes for All for APCNews) – A video showing President Asif Ali Zardari losing his temper in a public speech was recently censored in Pakistan. Bytes for All and its members vehemently condemn the Government's block on YouTube and considers it yet another attack on civil liberties and free speech in the country.
Rural e-governance in India: Women struggle to take part
CALGARY (LC for APC) – In India's rural e-governance initiative, 33% of local government seats are reserved for women. Rural village heads of Chhattisgarh State – one of India's poorest— can now participate in the public process and in theory remotely communicate the needs of their villages through the use of a low-cost computer that does not require computer literacy. But women are not taking the active roles that were expected. Using GEM, APC's gender evaluation methodology, Dr. Anupama Saxena and her team are finding out why winning an electoral seat does not necessarily guarantee that your voice is heard within the governance system if you are a woman.
Take Back the Tech! grows louder through local campaigns in 2009
CUERNAVACA (ES for APC WNSP) – From 25 November to 10 December late last year, the message came across loud and clear – whether it was via audiocast in Malaysia, chat relay in Brazil, protest march in Second Life, song-writing in Pakistan, calendars in Argentina, tweets in Mexico, posters in cybercafes in the Congo, or a mural on the streets of Soweto in South Africa. In over a dozen languages and through all platforms and medium both online and off, people took control of technology to end violence against women during the Take Back the Tech! campaign.
Bringing the message home: Women's radio a hit in Nigeria
NIGERIA (GenARDIS for APC) – In Nigeria, a small radio association is using theatre to teach rural populations practical skills like how to how to obtain small loans, and also discusses issues related to gender inequality. Thanks to a small grant by the Gender and Agriculture in the Information Society (GenARDIS) initiative, the project called Majalisar Mata Manoma has come a long way from being a simple radio programme. It is about meeting spaces for women farmers, connecting radio and mobile phones too.

Olivier Giroud says he can "start his adventure" at Arsenal now that he has opened his account in the Premier League.
The France international had come under pressure after failing to score in his first seven appearances for the Club after joining from Montpellier.
But the 26-year-old netted against Coventry in the Capital One Cup and then scored the crucial equaliser against West Ham in the league on Saturday.
"I'm very happy to have scored and that we won," Giroud told Arsenal Player. "It was a difficult game against a very good team, who play well at home.
"We were better in the second half and [were able] to play through their lines. I think we finished the game better.
"I feel relieved now. It was very important for me to score in the Premier League, to keep going and start my adventure here with Arsenal."
Giroud says it was vital for Arsenal to respond with a victory at Upton Park following their defeat to Chelsea.
"We had a bad one against Chelsea last week," he said. "It was important to go in front and to win [against West Ham].
"We'll keep going and stay confident for the future. I think we have a very interesting role in this championship."

The Crown and Tuhoe marked another step in settling the iwi's Treaty of Waitangi grievances today.
The two parties have completed negotiations on a deed of settlement worth $170 million. The deed was initialled in Parliament today in an often-emotional ceremony.
It must now be ratified by all members of Tuhoe before it can be implemented.
Treaty negotiations minister Christopher Finlayson said the settlement reflected the very serious nature of the breaches by the Crown of its obligations, including confiscation of prime agricultural land, brutal military campaigns, and unjust land purchases.
Tuhoe still felt the consequences of these actions in the present day, with many of the iwi suffering severe socio-economic deprivation.
Tuhoe chief negotiator Tamati Kruger said negotiators had done all they could to ensure the settlement was a good one and a foundation for a positive relationship between Tuhoe and the Crown.
The settlement will allow the iwi to jointly manage the Te Urewera National Park with the Crown and run its own social services.

Good Price, good work, certainly use again
Fantastic service. Very professional center. Would defiantly recommend. No one else came close to offering this kind of service and price.
I went to Binley garage to channge my Pads and disks because my friend the'Mechanic"told me that they are nearly gonne.Guys from Binley told me that they are good for another 12months and i dont need to change them so instead pads and disks I'v asked them to do a full car check, they toped all the fluids checked everything for only 28£. I will use this garage again 100%.
My score is based on the garage trying to get more money out of me, not the repair. As soon as I booked the repair on line I received a call to say the coolant was not included. On the day I dropped my vehicle off they rang to say they had looked over my van and i needed a new tyre and wheel alignment. I had just had a wheel alignment done a few days before. Ten mins later they called back to say my bearing had gone in my water pump this would be extra and gave me a price. I explained the quote had included to change the water pump. The impression I was given is that they were just looking for things to charge for. I new there was no problem with the water pump as I didn't have any problems with the van over heating. I would not recommend this garage!!
Very good service and garage can trust, Very nice people to deal with. Have a brill Xmas Back again soon Paul and family
very good service, agreed to service my car on a Saturday, which nobodyelse would do. great Job!
Did a great job would recommend them to other people
3 piece clutch supply and fit completed by the afternoon (dropped the car off in the morning that day). Polite, friendly and helpful staff. The next day after the fitting, I drove to Essex, Buckinghamshire and then back to Coventry. Big difference after clutch change, no problems.
Nicely done felass (work and parts are guaranteed as well for 12 months).This garage is ok .
The garage did everything I asked of them. They also found out some other repairs I needed doing and assisted me with that.
Picked the car up nice and early, phoned me to tell me what was going on, dropped off at the end of the day, will be my main garage for future use, first class service
Fantastic service from collection of the car, service and delivery.
Great service and clear communication. Arranged to have the car picked up from my office. Work completed promptly. Very please, would recommend!
Exceptional service, been there a couple of times now and been pleased on both occasions, fair price as well, might not be the cheapest but definitely not the most expensive.
All fine, I'm happy
Mr Tyre do not do class 7 mot's
Unable to carry out mot as they can not do class 7
I would use the garage again!
Excellent job, very friendly technician. Will use again
Could not service in time. Did it myself. No fault to the garage, I submitted a very last minute request!
(+) Good, professional and punctual. (-) VAT receipt not available on-hand with the mechanic. Would be spot-on if the mechanic hands over the payment receipt once payment has been confirmed over the phone.
Fantastic job at a brilliant price! I will easily recommend this garage to anyone. Great job!
Very good service. Had my Clutch replaced and car have been running like a dream.
Excellent Service! Came out to my car that has been broken down for a few weeks, came at short notice and got the car started in less than half an hour. Would certainly use again :)

A Clear Choice on Defense
By Paul Ryan Real Clear Defense
The world is less safe when America doesn't lead. But for President Obama, this lesson has yet to sink in. In February, he offered a budget that would cut crucial funding for our national security. So tomorrow, House Republicans will pass a budget that would give our troops the funding they need.

The apartment was nice with a wonderful roof terrace. The apartment is most suiteable for 2 persons. Some noice from outside by night by people in the street. Could be nice with air condition. One problem could be the key system that the door is closed when locking the door. If key is forgotten inside you have a problem.
We stayed three weeks during february in this very nice appartment in the old part of Malaga, and had a nice time both in the appartment and Malaga.
We can recommend both a tripp to Malaga and a stay in the appartment
with walking distance to the beach, shops, restaurants, museums and other places
of interest.
Our stay in Málaga (3 weeks) was a success because of the wonderfull and full equipped apartment we were lodged in. Calle Granada is situated in the hart of the city centre. All museums, interesting objects, restaurants and shops are on walking distance. Iff you need à break you can rest at the amazing sun roof on top of the apartment where you can see the cathedral and the Alcazaba.
Do not droget to visit restaurant Pimpi next door!
This is a great apartment for a stay in old Malaga. In fact it is the epi-centre of Old Malaga. It has a lovely terrace from which you can people watch and the views of the alcazaba and the churches are good as well. Easy communication with Virginia. Easy key pick up. Clean and comfortable. Directly above El Pimpi (but not noisy for Spain!) Ticks all the boxes for a city break. One slight problem might be the two flights of stairs and the stairs up to the terrace but it didn't bother us.
We loved staying here. The location is fantastic and the roof terasse amazing. We enjoyed being so close to everything - shops, a lovely bakery, cafés and restaurants, Picasso museum and beach included. Be prepared for some noice from people in the street at night - but hey - you cannot have it all. We were able to sleep well with the doors closed and a fan on :) Virginia was very quick to reply on our questions. I can warmly recommend staying at her place.
It's a great apartment in a great location!! In the morning you can see the sun coming up behind the historical fort Alcazaba from the roofterras. The roofterras is very nice and as big as the apartment. In the evening you can enjoy the sound and vieuw of people enjoying food and drinks together from the terras. The apartment had everything you need, is historic and bright, has a good bed and a very friendly naighbour. José is an artist and runs a galary in the apartment below, so he is only there on opening hours. Málaga is great to go around with a bike. I enjoyed my stay at Virginias apartment very much Muchos grácias!!
Virginia's apartment is in an good location, close to all the main places of interest in the city. The apartment is excellent with the added benefit of a lovely rooftop veranda, giving great views of the Cathedral and Alcazaba palace. Virginia was very helpful with good communication both prior to and during our stay. For anyone looking for a private apartment when visiting Malaga, I throughly recommend this property.
Went on a three night anniversary break with my husband. Gorka met us outside the apartment and was extremely helpful in showing us around and giving us advice on where to go. We were very grateful for the wine, beer, water and sweets. It was a nice touch. The apartment was clean and well equipped and the roof terrace is an absolute stunner! The location of the apartment is fantastic- minutes to picasso museum, roman theatre, views of castle, cathedral and right in the centre of town but only minutes walk to the marina/port and a further five or so to the beach. Its location can make it rather noisy as people mill around late into the night. However the noise didnt bother us at all as everything else was perfect. Thanks Virgnia
Beautiful appartment in the centre of Malaga. Everthing you need is there, including a stunning terrace on the roof! There is no airconditioning, but the appartment itself is cool so that was no problem at all. The beach and the centre are only a few minutes walk away. It was really nice staying here, specially with a wine, beer and chocolate as a welcome. Thanks again, Virginia!

text: Hey all, Simple question I hope. I'm going to do a coolant flush on the truck and I need to know what temperature thermostat to use. I know its basic...but I am getting conflicting stories on my end on which to use. What (if any) advantages are there to using different temp thermostats? I'm about to make a long haul up to Sequoia, so i need to get this one right. It's a 1989 Suburban, 5.7L with less than 100K miles.I've never had any overheating issues in the past, but the coolant is looking pretty gross. Thanks! -Erik

If we don't get Elton Brand, i woulden't mind making a pitch for Dejuan Blair. He'd be a good fit, and the Spurs just wrapped up Tiago Splitter for 4yrs, so could move on from Blair. Also, the Birdman could be a solid fit off the bench for Tyson Chandler.
i think i remember reading the bucks had interest in JR. it's possible the knicks could swap JR for ellis in a sign and trade. otherwise we can't afford him. i think the knicks will split the mmle on brand and pablo and fill the other holes with vet min deals.
just reading now that JR is close to resigning... likely a 3 year deal with a player option for the 3rd year.
knicks are set up to have a boat load of cap space in 2015. lots of good free agents that year too, if they don't sign extensions obviously... from what i remember in the new cba players are less likely to sign extensions because you can get more money by finishing the deal and becoming a free agent, and then resigning with your original team. i could be wrong on this but i think that's what cp3 and dwill did. they got more money by playing out their deals and then resigning, rather than signing extensions in the last year of their deals.
J.R. Smith to re-sign with Knicks. Woody needs to learn when to pull him when he's not in rhythm.
Mood: WOOF!
and if it dosen't work with a explosive shooting team, we can blow it up in 2015 an d have cap space galore.
Francisco Garcia is latest rumoured player the knicks showing interest in. Obviously, they are gonna be interested in many players and eventually choose 1or2(they got some exception at 3.1mill and then a vet minimum player or something like that?). So, we've heard Garcia, Matt Barnes, Devin harris, Sebastian Telfair, Elton Brand, Kenyon Martin, Will Bynum, and even Little nates names floating around. It'll be intesting to see what we get. I'm hoping for Devin Harris and Matt Barnes the more i think about it.
barnes would be a great back up 3. gritty, tough defender that hustles, plays hard and can make an open 3.
i think we might lose cope.,, but essentially bargs will be his and novaks' replacement balled into 1.
felton / pablo
shump / jr / hardaway
melo / barnes
bargs / stat
tyson / brand
plus a few other vet min guys (or leslie if he makes the team)
that team is better than last year's team imo. a lot of it is based upon guys staying healthy though. if both stat and bargs are constantly hurt we're gonna be back where we started with melo at the 4 and JR chucking too much.
Apparently it's a 4 year deal. Ugh, 4 years is too much...unless he totally changes his character and playing style, we are going to be seeing the same crap from him the next 4 years. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/ba...icle-1.1389772
Mood: WOOF!

ETSU announces cutbacks
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - A local university is cutting back as school leaders say they need to rein in spending.
The announcement at East Tennessee State University means some changes are coming.
Today, the university's president, Dr. Brian Noland, outlined several changes in the wake of a drop in student enrollment.
"The primary revenue source that drives the operation of this university is through tuition and fees," said Dr. Noland.
Noland addressed the media Monday afternoon, saying enrollment has been less than expected for three years and the senior executive leadership team has outlined some changes to make up for the drop in revenue.
Those changes include: a one and a half percent budget reduction across the board, a hiring freeze for staff and faculty, keeping computers for one more year and only buying new ones every five years instead of four, and cutting back on new vehicles.
"We've moved from an era in which support from higher education primarily comes from the state and we've moved to an era in which support from higher education is increasingly coming from non-state revenues," said Noland. That includes tuition and fees, grants, contracts, along with sales and services.
Dr. Noland also addressed the issue of the newly formed football program.
"If we did not have a football program, I would still be standing here today making this decision," said Dr. Noland. He says the football program is funded by student fees and that money can not be moved to another fund; the same goes for the performing arts center.
Noland says, instead of taking away from the university, those projects should help build student growth.
"So without football we would have a $3.7 million shortfall as a result of enrollment downturn, with football we have a $3.7 million downturn due to enrollment."
How long the cutbacks will last remains to be seen.
However, Dr. Noland believes this is a plan that will help the school grow its way out of the budget issues.
Staff salaries are not changing. Dr. Noland says the school's mission is to put people first, so the 1.5 percent salary increase for staff and faculty will remain in place.

The part I am highlighting makes it clear they can call a penalty on a hit to the shoulder if the receiver is deemed defenseless.
Will Hill is a freak, he's gonna be a stud for us and I expect massive things if he keeps his head on straight. Fast and knows how to cover and hit. Exceptional player. Now that he's learned our playbook, he'll have a full OTA and training camp under his belt and I expect to see the type of player we saw early in his Florida career. Has potential to be a top Safety in the LEAGUE.
The "unnecessary" part occurs when the defender uses his helmet or puts a blow to the receiver's head. A shoulder hit to the midsection is perfectly legal and very difficult to achieve in my opinion.
It is a hard call to make as well, and referees seem to be erring on the side of safety.

Reviews of this property
A very clean and tastefully furnished apartment in the middle of Lavapies. However, the double balcony door can by no noise. Also in the house was very quiet. Should you want to cook in Madrid, can do so in the well-equipped kitchen. The location is perfect because you can reach on foot all good. Oscar was very nice and helpful. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
Eine sehr saubere und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Wohnung mitten in Lavapies. Die doppelte Balkontür lässt aber keine Geräusche durch. Auch im Haus war es sehr ruhig. Wer Lust hat in Madrid zu kochen, kann dies in der gut ausgestatteten Küche tun. Die Lage ist perfekt, da man fußläufig alles gut erreichen kann. Oscar war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir würden jederzeit wieder hier wohnen.
Hello There,
accommodation in Lavapies is very well located. Many museums and other attractions we could do on foot. The shops and the small, fine pubs and bars were also good errerichbar. The size of the loft was good for us, and cleanliness great. Key collection and delivery have also worked without problems. The einizge point to complain about, is the volume. Because the loft is surrounded by other houses, you get noise from the neighbors, which is not so bad, but that the people who lived on us almost every night loud music heard and otherwise very loud (talking, rumble, furniture backs) were really bothered us. Unfortunately, only two Next were so quiet that we could sleep well. For this reason, I can only recommend conditionally Loft. Everything else, the contact with Vanessa & Oscar and the whole organization were great !!!
die Unterkunft in Lavapies ist sehr gut gelegen. Viele Museen und andere Sehenswürdigkeiten konnten wir zu Fuß erledigen. Die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und die kleinen, feinen Lokale und Kneipen waren ebenfalls gut errerichbar. Die Größe des Lofts war für uns gut und die Sauberkeit super. Die Schlüsselübergabe-und abgabe haben auch problemlos geklappt. Der einizge Punkt, der zu bemängeln ist, ist die Lautstärke. Da das Loft inmitten von anderen Wohnungen liegt, bekommt man Geräusche der Nachbarn mit, das ist nicht so schlimm, aber dass die Leute, die über uns wohnten fast jeden Abend laute Musik hörten und auch ansonsten sehr laut (Gespräche, poltern, Möbel rücken) waren, hat uns sehr gestört. Leider waren nur zwei Nächste so ruhig, dass wir gut schlafen konnten. Aus diesem Grund kann ich das Loft nur bedingt weiterempfehlen. Alles andere, der Kontakt zu Vanessa & Oscar und die ganze Organisation waren super!!!
I recommend this apartment to everyone ,. Both for its comfort and its status (clean, central and quiet). Repeat stay without hesitation. And the guy who greeted us very friendly.
Recomendaría este piso a todo el mundo,. Tanto por su confort como por su situación(limpio, céntrico y silencioso). Repetiría estancia sin dudarlo. Y el chico que nos atendió muy amable.
What a beautiful apartment and tastefully furnished and equipped with what is needed. The neighborhood is a little disadvantaged ambience but also very lively. Once used to the gang and littering is actually a funny neighborhood where everything happens. Nearby nice affordable eateries, did a bit of thinking Berlin, alternative youth atmosphere. Everything within walking distance, at least the major museums and the subway nearby. For those who like Indian food: rather not go to the food stalls in the street, to find there are plenty of other eateries and affordable.
Wat een mooi appartement en smaakvol ingericht en voorzien van wat nodig is. De buurt is een beetje achterstands-sfeertje maar ook heel levendig. Eenmaal gewend aan de bende en afval op straat is het eigenlijk een grappige buurt waar van alles gebeurt. In de omgeving leuke betaalbare eettentjes, deed een beetje aan Berlijn denken, alternatieve jongeren sfeer. Van alles op loopafstand, in ieder geval de belangrijke musea en de metro vlakbij. Voor wie van Indiaas eten houdt: toch maar niet naar de eettentjes in de straat gaan, er zijn genoeg andere en betaalbare eettentjes te vinden.
We've just got home after spending 4 days in this lovely loft, we really didn't want to leave. It was clean, comfortable, stylish and cosy. Everything we wanted. The bed was big and comfy and Oscar and Vanessa were great hosts leaving us all the information we could have wanted. It's right next to he lavapies metro station so easy to get anywhere, and there's also a supermarket 2 minutes away which is a bonus. My boyfriend and I would recommend this lift to anyone and we would definitely return to stay again if we went back to Madrid. Thank you oscar and Vanessa!!! :)
Very comfortable and tastefully furnished. Home extreme kindness. Cosmopolitan area that needs a little time to adjust
Appartement très confortable et aménagé avec beaucoup de goût.
Accueil d'un extrême gentillesse.
Quartier cosmopolite auquel il faut un peu de temps pour s'adapter
Reviews for this host's other properties
This is a lovely little studio, clean and smartly decorated. Someone was waiting for us at the time agreed upon and explained all the rules in perfect English (our Spanish isn't quite good enough unfortunately)! The apartment has all the amenities and is well situated. Surprisingly quiet! Perfect for a couple! No elevator so not suited for anyone with reduced mobility, but not an issue for most people I would think. The owners have created a laminated map with recommended restaurants, etc. Very useful!
Fantastic apartment with all you need in the very City center of Madrid so you can walk to All sightseeing and shops or take the Metro or bus. Very good Service from our host both at arrival and departure. We got a late luggage checkout as our flight was in the evening. However 1 of the 3 bedrooms could hear some Street noise.
I really enjoyed my stay at 6 calle de Jordan. This is a very comfortable and welcoming flat – it was amazing how much I felt at home after just a couple of days. Oscar and co. were terrific hosts, were flexible and friendly and made it all very straightforward. I hadn't been in Chamberi before and really liked the area. Spent a lot of time in plaza de Olavide just at the foot of c. de Jordan – a very nice square with cafes and terraces all round it. In the other direction, just down the road on Fuencarral there is one of the ubiquitous VIP restaurants for those times when you want a meal outside normal Spanish eating hours. Throw in a Carrefour supermarket a couple of minutes away and the usual plethora of cafes and bars, plus a couple of metro stations, and you're all set. Would have loved to have stayed longer, would definitely go back and would recommend to anyone.

Building a 10g paludarium, need plant help
Projected animal residents:
Land: Dart frog(s?), vampire crabs?, tropical isopods, ???
Water: Sparkling gouramis, scarlet badis, honey gourami?, shrimp, ???
I'm in the process of building a 10 gallon (20"x10"x12") paludarium and I'm not sure what plants I should put in it. I've had terrariums, but never very wet ones. This will be tropical temperature, fairly high humidity, and with a sponge filter in the water portion.
What I wanted to do was; make a shelf "bowl" to hold the substrate for the land portion, with a screen bottom, BUT have the shelf dip into the water an inch or two, so the water comes in through the screen and the bottom of the "bowl" is constantly wet. I was intending to plant bog type plants. The main problem is, I will have around 5 inches of above-ground space to work with and everything but moss seems to get so tall. I was going to have a "rock" area with a couple air plants on it, but I'm not sure what would be best for the soil area that won't either drown or overtake the tank.
Larger-than-moss plants I am considering for the land portion are polka dot plants and dwarf anubias. I'm not sure what else, or if those are even a good idea. The main problem is I don't want something that will quickly get too big for the tank, as it will have a lid.
Also, what sort of substrate should I use for the land portion? I was thinking of layering rocks and then an orchid bark/peat moss/coco fiber mix on top? I want something that the plants will grow in, and the bugs (and potentially crabs?) will be able burrow in.
As for the water portion, one of the main reasons for the start of this tank was to have plants that show different forms in and out of the water. Are there any plants like this besides water sprite that would grow in this type of paludarium and stay under 1 foot vertically? I have a fairly good idea of what water plants I want, but could always use suggestions from more experienced people.
As a final note, this is a rather ambitious project for me. I will be adding fauna very slowly, after the plants are established. I've never owned frogs before, and only a few fish. Most of my terrarium experience is with "bugs" (scorpions, spiders, land snails, various insects). I hope you will all be understanding!
tl;dr need short terrestrial plants that like wet feet please help
I am still learning the plants that fit best in a terrarium so I'm not much help there, however I can offer some advise on the crabs, if you decide to go that way for critters.
As far as the crabs go - some like to burrow. I have red chilie crabs that burrow. In my land portion I just have a potting soil mix (minus the vermiculite/perlite). The crabs will dig as far as you let them, and in some cases without a trace. (I pulled my tank apart a couple of months ago as I thought that my crabs escaped. I left the land mass sitting on a desk thinking that nothing was in it. The next morning when I went into my room I found a crab crawling across the floor. lol
Crabs do need a mix of water and land. If you have enough water some small fish are a nice addition. The crabs shouldn't bother them.
I have also noticed that the crabs will munch on most plants.
Good luck. Post some pictures when you can of what you've set up.
I almost feel like a hypocrite for saying this (my first paludarium was a 10-gallon, with a bunch of lava rocks siliconed all over the place), but I really think you should consider getting a bigger tank.
a 10 gallon isn't a very good beginner tank, and even less so if someone is looking to do a riparium/paludarium set up. For the typical set up, you just up and 1/2 your available volume by setting it up as a paludarium. On top of that, you can shave another 25-30% off of the remaining volume due to backdrop/hardscape and what not.
Granted, the terrestrial plants drawing nutrients from the water column will cover a lot of the filtration you need, but there is still a minimum space requirement necessary for a lot of critters.
I'd strongly urge you to at least use a 29 gallon, they are still relatively inexpensive, and will offer a lot more room both for scaping and for the inhabitant's comfort.
Anyways, aside from that...
I tend to like creeping ficus, but it can really grow, and is probably better in larger tanks. something like selaginella (sp?) or baby's tears can do well in a moist substrate, but I don't have much experience using either one in paludariums. most aquatic mosses will also grow over exposed rocks/wood/whatever if they can keep their feet damp. this is probably your best option for that sized set-up. Almost anything else will require near religious trimming , or it probably won't work at that scale.
Also, within something the size of a 10-gallon, I wouldn't worry too much about your choice of substrate, likely everything will draw it's nutrients straight from the water-column. probably anything relatively inert, and somewhat porous will work well (lava rock, pumice, flourite, kitty litter, safe-t-sorb, oil-dry, etc.) anything that works well for hydroponics will likely work for this. you more or less just want to give the plant something to support it's root structure.
If you stick to smaller critters, it may work, but I'd be hesitant to put much anything bigger then a typical feeder guppy in it.
Polka dot plants fair poorly in most indoor setups in my experience, even in terrariums (although outside in the shade I have had them go from a little seedling up to two feet around in just a few months, and even bloom) That brings up another problem - if they do live, they will get big and grow quickly.
Many small vining plants would do well. Creeping fig has small leaves but does grow long so would need periodic pruning. A pothos or philodendron could be trained around the tank or kept pruned small. Fittionias stay short and if one were to get over 5 inches, just cut it back close to the base and it will recover. Small ferns take a while to grow and could be used for at least a year before outgrowing their suroundings.
Thank you all for the feedback!
I didn't even think of Fittonia. I have a fairly large one as a houseplant, I guess I forgot they come in small too.
I am aware of the size constraints but I think I can make it work. All of the fish on my "maybe" list are under two inches and are happy in pairs or small groups.
Do you think lava rock would be too abrasive for burrowing animals? What about flourite?
there are many plants you can use that will stay small. peperomia, dwarf philodendron, artillery fern, the list goes on and on. find a local garden center who carries terrarium plants. most are dwarf varieties that stay small. you can even use some aquatics if you like. glosso, staurogyne repens, some crypts, will work in a bog type set up. you won't need your soil below the water line to keep it wet, it will absorb water naturally if it is just touching the water surface. as far as substrate goes, i use an organic soil mix designed for hydroponics, covered in a layer of cocofiber. all my plants are nice and healthy. :)
Be very carefull not to overstock =[
WOW OKAY so a whole lot of Life happened and put this project on hold but it's finally coming along. So far it's sculpted and has the base coat of paint on. Here's a 'top' view
and a cave that may or may not become a waterfall.
This is far, far too small for dart frogs. They are specialized, and do not appreciate being mixed. A pdf would last about five minutes with a crab. You need at least 10 gallons of usable space per frog, imo (though I recommend more if you want it happy). The are poor swimmers. In a 10g paludarium, you would need to have at least 15 times the amount of usable space. Also, do you have experience culturing fruit flies?
Furthermore, leaf litter is critical for darts. I suspect that you have not done proper research on this... This is a very short list of reasons why it would not work, if you would like some more let me know. I encourage you to get into darts, but PLEASE do your research first before caring for a exotic animal.
Thank you for your input! Would you mind giving me a link to the sources you use? All the research I have done says a single D. auratus would be fine in the floorspace that is provided in my setup. I don't know yet whether I'll be getting the crabs instead of a frog, or putting them together, but I know people do keep them together. I think maybe you don't know what a vampire crab is?
If you'll take a moment to read my initial post, I did say that while I have not had a frog, I have had exotic animals such as spiders and scorpions. I have plenty of experience raising live food, including fruit flies.
I would definitely look into the baby's tears, I've had good luck with them in the past. I would also look into some of the ferns.
As for the crabs, yes I know what they are, but I have heard horror stories about the frogs getting stressed to death/forced to drown in similar setups. Better use them then fiddler crabs, though ;).
But yes, I realize that I came off as a bit rude, and I apologize for that. I just want to make sure that the animals are happy.
And though you may know how to culture fruit flies, are you willing to get REALLY good at it? One dart can eat far more in a day then several thousand slings can in a week in that setup, as many flies would drown in the water feature.
About the plant suggestion, I would stay away from ferns, as dwarf in ferns is relative, as if ferns are happy, they can outgrow many background plants (especially in a 10 gallon). There are some that would work, however.
Also, for a ten gallon tiny tears > baby tears. Gives a better sense of scale.
Hope it helps.
Also, I second artillery fern (not actually a fern). It grows like mad via its seeds, which it sprays everywhere, but grows great when wet. It would look interesting growing on the waterfall.
[QUOTE=Open_Cages;2438258] are you willing to get REALLY good at it? One dart can eat far more in a day then several thousand slings can in a week in that setup, as many flies would drown in the water feature.
i'm just curious, i've been culturing fruit flies for about a decade now, but how do i know when i am REALLY good at it?
and when i feed my frogs in their palus, i rarley have any drownings. and any that do, get eaten by the aquatic dwellers.
my apologies if i offended anyone, i will climb down from my soap box now.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Sanddunes, Jul 20, 2007.
Another player to say no. FOX Sports on MSN - NBA - Francis to return to Rockets
Off Season • Dime Magazine's Blog - FOX Sports Blogs "Who's had a worse offseason than the Heat? First they lost Jason Kapono to Toronto. Then there were some very public swings-and-misses with Mo Williams and Grant Hill (not to mention Steve Blake). And the Heat didn't even get a chance to make a run at Rashard Lewis, but it turns out there's no way they had enough money to compete with Orlando anyway. Daequan Cook might be a good ballplayer down the road, but you wouldn't call Miami's draft haul a blockbuster. And the only upside to Dwyane Wade being on the shelf through the beginning of training camp is that he won't be worn out from playing with Team USA. They're not done, though. The South Florida Sun-Sentinel says the Heat are talking with Steve Francis' people, trying to fill that need at PG. On paper, Francis and D-Wade in the backcourt looks real good. If that paper was written up in '04. But today? Steve is at least an upgrade over J-Will "…
[maniacal cackle....] MIAMI
Miami is in deep this year. I am not sure they can climb out of it. They may struggle to make the playoffs.
They don't have any cap money. 33 mil next season for Shaq/Wade and another nearly 18 mil for Walker/Williams. I do not believe that their owner likes lux tax anymore than most owners.
I'm glad somebody started this thread. Daquan Cook??? Why and the hell did you draft a poor-mans Dwayne Wade, WHEN YOU HAVE DWAYNE WADE?!?!?!??!?!? Man imagine if this was Joe-D and Det, the moderators would be so busy it wouldn't even be funny. You win the ring, then get bounced in the 1st round after a sub-par title defense and then you have an awful draft and free agent season, with no trades on the horizon?????? I hope Shaq has some gas or Diesel left in that tank, if not Wade is going to get worn down to the point of no return.
And why was it that LA didn't want to keep paying the aged Diesel exorbitant amounts of money? Jerry Buss is not looking so dumb after all. Although the Lakers aren't making it out of the first round either, they are in a much better position to make moves, and it seems they have a lot more upside with their youth.
Actually, Lakes are not that much better off. They can't even bring in a player to shut up Kobe.
we would have gotten Acie Law if he was available. acie = poor man's Billups. aside from that...maimi....BWHAHAHAHAHAHA
Maybe they can move the franchise to Puerto Rico and then Stern and the other owners would give them a Salary Cap break.
I believe that the signing of Derrick Fisher has taken care of that problem.
Since they couldn't get Mo Williams and White Chocolate and the Glove are aging, Smush has been signed to feed Wade as he did Kobe last season?? Miami Heat signs point guard Smush Parker -- South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com
Smush didn't feed Kobe. He averaged less than 3 assists a game, which is about as many shots as Kobe makes every quarter in addition to the 4 free throws he attempts every quarter. Smush Parker Statistics - Basketball-Reference.com Kobe Bryant Statistics - Basketball-Reference.com
My bad. Kobe only averaged about 2.5 free throws a quarter, about the same number of field goals he made per quarter.
Lets put it this way...Smush was supposed to feed Kobe, but instead Kobe fed Kobe, and Smush played in Phil's doghouse for most of the second part of the season. Fisher although older than the mush man should be more efffective since he is familiar with the triangle as well Kobe and Phil's antics...
Kobe averaged 5.4 assists a game which is pretty darn good considering the only other guy on the team that could score was Lamar Odom, who was out for an extended period last year. Kobe Bryant Statistics - Basketball-Reference.com
HEAT: HEAT Sign Devin Greene
