Take the drops under the tongue and feel the North American Herb and Spice Poplarex difference. About North American Herb and Spice North American Herb and Spice was founded in 1999 by Judy Kay Gray, MS with the idea that nourishment from raw whole foods is the key to maintaining optimal health. Today those founding ideals serve as the foundation for more than 130 unique products, formulations that are highly nourishing and naturally powerful. Throughout the years North American Herb and Spice has exemplified quality in all the ingredients used to formulate its products. From the remote mountains of the Mediterranean to the valleys of the Amazon rainforest, North American Herb and Spice has sourced the finest fruits, herbs, and spices in the world. Wild handpicked spices such as the oregano they use in Oreganol P73 are the cornerstone of their product line. The phenolic compounds found in these spices have been revered since antiquity for their powerful effects. These whole, raw spices are steam distilled using the same processes used for generations, capturing the concentrated essential oil at often astounding ratios. These concentrated spice oils are then emulsified in extra virgin olive oil at the perfect ratio for power and palatability. Through this proprietary process invented by founder Ms. Gray, the spice extract market in the United States was revived after problems with adulteration hindered its growth in the early 1950s. The end result was the purest, most powerful spice extracts made from the purest ingredients free from pesticides, chemicals, and solvents. At North American Herb and Spice, they are dedicated to the expansive research and education into the possible uses for spice, herb, and fruit extracts beyond what has been handed down throughout the generations. In an era of information, it is critical that those wanting more information about natural/alternative products are able to obtain it without hindrance. It is essential that those seeking more information on the benefits of natural/alternative products voice their desire for more information. This is of great importance because it allows for every individual to have a choice and the personal freedom to determine what is in their own best interests. North American Herb and Spice appreciates each and everyone who is and will be a supporter of North American Herb and Spice because they know that only through education will change occur. As they are dedicated to the education and health of their customer, they have observed their customers are equally dedicated to educating their friends and family. This exchange is truly beneficial to all exemplifies their mission and the intended result of their efforts. North American Herb and Spice wild oregano is handpicked by villagers in the most remote mountainous regions of the Mediterranean. This ensures the impeccable purity and quality of the essential oils they provide. When the wild spice and herbs are steam distilled to extract the powerful essential oils, it is done with pure, underground spring waters. This is a technique used by the indigenous peoples of the region for centuries. After the steam distillation process is complete, the essential oils are then tested to ensure the phytochemical markers are within their expectations. When the essential oils are emulsified, it is in organic extra virgin olive oil, which by itself possesses powerful nutritive properties. They never adulterate our products with fillers, chemicals, or solvents. North American Herb and Spice's early challenges have led to the development of not only the most unique variety of products in the world, but also a standard for quality second to none. The mission of North American Herb and Spice is not only to educate the public on the powers of raw whole foods, but to create a morale standard for the way people nourish their bodies. North American Herb and Spice's beliefs intertwine with movements across the globe that advocate the conservation of natural resources and maintain the delicate balance of nature. For this they align themselves and support causes that set a high morale standard for the respect of nature and health. They are opposed to the use of genetically modified organisms in food. They believe in the power of raw foods, and the power that uncooked vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and enzymes posses. They believe that nature intended for bodies to depend on natural-source vitamins and minerals, not synthetics. It is these among other ideals that have fueled their pursuit for a happier and healthier human race. In yet another effort to provide the highest quality functional foods, North American Herb and Spice has released a line of products from the wild Amazon rainforest. These raw, delicious delights have been the staple of the Peruvian diet for ages; civilizations have been built on the unbelievable power and health provided by these functional foods. As a relentless pioneer in the industry, North American Herb and Spice is the only source for cold-pressed pure raw maca extract, pure raw purple corn, and a host of other non-adulterated exotic raw fruit and root extracts that contain absolutely no alcohol or solvents. These exotic Amazon extracts are in high demand and short supply. In order to maintain these wonderful products in their line, North American Herb and Spice is engaging in an educational campaign aimed to peak awareness into the usefulness of these natural resource programs. Renewable resource programs that will maintain these lands and allow children to benefit from all the wild Amazon has to offer.

As you may have noticed on the sign in page, Fleaflicker will be offering fantasy basketball and hockey very soon. As soon as both are made available on the site we will provide more information.

Just another question..I want to have a straight up points pool..Not weekly head to head...
How do I set this or is that not an option? thanks..
IWJay 8 years ago
XxJohnson_09xX 8 years ago
i dont think that is an option but i am not quite sure
FFCSR_Doug 8 years ago
You just have to ignore the head to head results and sort by the points for column on the standings page. Working on implementing a total points option though.
IWJay 8 years ago
I am trying to set up my league to allow 9 forward positions..The site will not allow me to do this..I have restrictions, such as, C/LW/RW..
My offline draft is currently at another site, but I would like to bring it here..
Is there any way I can set my league in this format? (No restrictions on forward positions)
FFCSR_Doug 8 years ago
Try creating a flex position with C/LW/RW. Also be loose with the position maximum for this. Example set C minimum to 0, maximum to 9.
IceOnFire 8 years ago
I'd like to get a clarification on how we can setup scoring for the weekly Head to Head leagues. My current leagues is setup to add the avg scoring for each player during a week. That way the number of games is not an issue. Is this an option we have with FleaFlicker Basketball?
Rantuckjr 8 years ago
Is head to head each matchup an option for scoring. If we have 11 scoring categories will the record for the week look like 8-3 or is it just 1-0? We need to move from ESPN, but this would be a problem.
FFCSR_Doug 8 years ago
At the moment that format is not an option. We will be working on it though for a midseason release.
FFCSR_Doug 8 years ago
The game is very similar to what is currently available for Football & Baseball :
- Head to Head Fantasy Points Style
- Daily or Weekly Lineup Locking
One difference is the default league size is 10 teams. This will allow for public leagues to fill up quicker and have a player pool that is not too thin.
All the features that are currently available for football & baseball are there for hockey and basketball. We want to hear from you guys on suggestions to improve it (know rotisserie, total points, maxing the number of games a player can play in a week/season are all important).

FN PS90 sights?
I've been looking onto buying an FN PS90 carbine and from what I see online, you can get one with an integrated holographic sight, or you can get one with no sights, but with a weaver rail in its place. A friend of mine in work told me his brother has one with iron sights. I was wondering if you could buy PS90's with iron sights, or if you have to install them into the gun.

Heart & Hands: A Midwife's Guide to Pregnancy and Birth, 4th Edition
by Elizabeth Davis
[2004, Berkeley, CA: Celestial Arts; 312 pages, paperback.]
[Review first published in Midwifery Today Issue 74, Summer 2005, © 2005, Midwifery Today, Inc. Review by Cher Mikkola.]
We've trusted midwife, author, wise woman Elizabeth Davis for a long time now and loved this book since its first edition in 1987. She has offered her heart and hands countless times to readers who seek her wisdom about the art of midwifery and the art of growing and birthing a baby, as well as to the many mothers she's served during their childbearing year. This new edition is a testimony to the sacred work she accomplishes.
Davis's revision updates information about important matters such as group B streptococcus, VBAC, gestational diabetes, and postdatism, reworks her previous writing about psychosocial issues and introduces new material about the practice of midwifery. But probably most in tune with her insightful and empowering outlook on the experience of being a woman is her reworked language that testifies to the certainty that "birth works, and that calm, undisturbed birthing mothers know what to do, and when."
Overarching chapter subjects flow from prenatal care to birth to postpartum care, with dozens of subtopics in each chapter. These sections are packed with nuts-and-bolts information laced with commentary and perspective. Some of the best drawings I've ever seen in midwifery/birth manuals each speak a thousand words of instruction. Liberal use of sidebars highlights information that midwives need to locate at a glance. A lot of parents-in-waiting will pick this book up, too, so I appreciate that in some chapters, Davis has included "For Parents" sidebars. And as always, Suzanne Arms's beautiful photographs illuminate the text throughout. The final chapters address the processes of becoming a midwife and surviving as a midwife. The book resolves with a fantastic collection of helpful appendices, including useful forms for midwifery practice, supply lists, resources, MANA statements and accountability guidelines.
Elizabeth Davis shows us once again that both black-and-white, hard-facts knowledge and deep wisdom and feminine empowerment are aspects of the best midwifery care.
Reviewer Cher Mikkola is a contributing editor at Midwifery Today magazine and a freelance writer, editor and proofreader who specializes in the field of birth.

What's being said
Last year a pawn shop in Manchester CT held some property of mine that was stolen. I came back within 10 days with a police report and the police officer and the pawn shop owner would still not release the stuff that was righfully mine. To this day I have given up the battle for my valuables because the owner held the property until the 10th day then sold the property and told the cop that there was nothing he could do to get it back. The owner produced the names of the customers that had bought my property and Manchester PD has still yet to track them down. I think the whole operation as a whole is crooked. So 5 days 10 day either way if they want to profit off your valubles they will find a way around it.

Some clubs have really paid their dues and have served our culture for a number of years. Classic Oldies is most definitely one of those car clubs. With open arms and hearts; we were welcomed into their world, and upon my arrival at the magazine shoot for this feature, I knew how worthy they were of being in the pages of LRM. As an outsider looking in, I could see that this club might be small, but what they lack in numbers they more than make up for in heart and dedication. A "one-for-all-and-all-for-one" club, Classic Oldies members will ride out at the drop of a hat to do whatever they can to further their car club and fly their plaque around the world. I was especially impressed with their family atmosphere, as the different generations were all involved and on hand to help out with the club's photo shoot.
This club started off as most clubs do; a few guys who knew each other got together and talked about forming a new club. They did this in September of 1996 at Shakey's Pizza in La Habra, and haven't looked back since. The club's original 11 members consisted of Tony Baltierra, Henry and Edward Vasquez, Ronnie Casias, Guy Loya, Jack Matamoros, Tony Montez, Jerry Petroski, Robert Baltierra, Anthony Baltierra, and Danny Caranza. These guys were all vets who had previously been members of other clubs, which really helped in forming Classic Oldies, as they knew and understood the structure and responsibilities necessary for running an elite car club.
Since the day of its inception 14 years ago, Classic Oldies have been active in a variety of events, and the club has participated in everything from Christmas dances to toy drives, and have thrown some car shows too. Today, Classic Oldies boasts a roster of 21 members. A key part of the club's success is that Classic Oldies doesn't have a president, and they decide everything by a vote. This true democracy helps them to avoid the politics that come from traditional structure. After the members vote, they trust a coordinator, John Herrera, and a treasurer, Anthony Baltierra to tally up the count while the rest of the members assist wherever they are needed. This structure has proven to be successful, and given much stability and closeness in comparison to some of the clubs who run the much more traditional model.
Classic Oldies' newest addition has been their Las Vegas Chapter, whose members attend all of the important club functions with no hesitation. In fact, this past October, Classic Oldies went to the Vegas Super Show and displayed six of the clubs rides in a measure of solidarity. Member Robert Balteirra explained, "It was cool 'cause when we do things, it is as a family; for the simple fact all the families go for the most part. We had a blast in Vegas, and I think we are going to have to go back next year and support this show."
Classic Oldies have been around for 14 years, although most of them have known each other for closer to 20 years. When they aren't on the Boulevard, they can usually be found barbequing and relaxing on the weekends, or going to events like the Pomona swap meet. Whatever they are doing, you can count on them upholding the Lowrider culture to the fullest, and we wish them well as they look to enjoy their upcoming 15th year anniversary! Thanks for letting us into your world, Classic Oldies, we wish you continued success and hope the club will be around for another 15 years!

" Brand: Parasene / Equipment Type: Aerator / Scarifier "
My house is no more than about twelve years old. But it is built on a slight gradient meaning that in our back garden, when it rains, we can get a bit of a small flood right slap bang outside our patio doors.
So far, this hasn't proved to be a problem as it always stops below the level of the door but I can see it maybe being a problem in the future with projected increased rainfall forecast in our area over the next few years due to global issues, so decided I needed a solution!
I had never really heard of an Aerator before until my mother-in-law suggested I buy one. Available from all good D.I.Y/ Gardening stores, it is designed essentially to do as the name suggests and help your soil/ garden/lawn breathe more easily and get more air.
At its most basic it is just a metal frame with a series of around five spikes at its end, officially known as Tines. The idea being that you walk about the area you want to areate and punch holes in the ground with the Aerator.
This, as you can imagine, can be a lengthy and time-consuming process but if you don't have a very big gsarden like me, then it is probably not worth your while investing in either an electric or petrol one! I have also been advised thsat those with rollers attached, presumably to make the job quicker and easier, are really not worth their salt because they take so much force to actually get them going and are not really that effective in any case that they are a bit of a waste of money!
This Aerator cost me just under £18 from Homebase but other varieties were available.
But the big question is....has it worked?
Well, it has been raining today and, considering I used this at the weekend to put holes in my lawn and hopefully trap some of the rain, so far no rising flood outside my patio door. I have been advised that I might have to do this every couple of weeks or at least once a month for it to continue to be an effective way of stopping rainfall gathering at my door but, aside from the fact that it was a bit time-consuming actually using it, it seems so far to have done a good job!
Job done!!!
Gardening is a little like 'marmite' in the way that most people either love it or hate it.
I grew up with my parents practically living in the garden, where they would spend all their spare time nurturing their garden, attending to flowers and plants, cutting, trimming and treating the lawns and the trees, and fighting a constant battle with the algae in the pond. I would often say to them that I could not understand why they spent so much of their free time in the garden, and swore that I would never be the same!
When I first got my house, I was intent on having a basic lawn, with a couple of pots so that it would be very low maintenance, and easy to keep. As the years have ticked by though, I have gradually morphed into my parents (not just with the balding head), in terms of my love for my garden, and I am finding that I spend more and more time in there each year to keep it looking as good as I can. When I visit my parents now, I always get talking to them about gardening, trying to find out their tips and secrets to a good lawn, and it was just this springtime when we got talking about Aerators.
The problem that I had with my lawn was moss!
It had started in a small patch in a shaded area by the fence, and gradually taken over about a third of my lawn! My dad instantly said that it needed and aerator or scarifier on it. I had previously kind of inherited my grandma's old aerator, and had tried to use it a few times, but found it useless, so stopped using it and gave it to the rag and bone man. It was very old and rusty, but the problem I had was that it was a roller type, and as such the spikes would not sink into the ground at all, so it wasn't really doing anything. My dad told me that he had seen some good ones (of a different style) in our local garden centre on offer, and so a few days later I went to get one.
Just from looking at the Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator I instantly knew that this was going to do a far better job of getting stuck into my lawn than my old rusty roller aerator did. I paid £18:99 for it, reduced from £24:99, and it must be my most useful and successful garden purchase of all time.
My dad had explained to me why these things were so good, but I was a little skeptical about it. I had always thought they were just used to put a bit of air into the lawn, and to a degree that is primarily what they do.
The idea of an aerator (or scarifier as they are sometimes known) is to press numerous hollow spikes vertically into the lawn which basically creates a series of deep (8-10 cm) holes in the ground. As the spikes go into the ground, they cut a hole in the soil, taking out a section of soil which is eventually pushed out of the top of the aerator. The purpose of this (like I mentioned above) is that it creates a hole in the soil to allow air to get down into the soil and stops it from becoming too waterlogged. Secondly, it allows the water from the surface to drain away, which in turn reduces the damp conditions on the surface that are the main cause of the dreaded moss!
My house was only built about 6 years ago, as part of a large estate of houses by Persimmon builders, and it has to be said that when I laid the turf down, the soil (if that is what you can call it) under the thin layer of top soil that I added to sit the turf on was more like clay. This has meant that any rain that falls on my lawn doesnt really have anywhere to drain to, as the clay keeps it on the surface, which makes perfect conditions for moss to breed. The areator is therefore used to combat this problem.
The Parasene hollow tine aerator is just like the one shown in the picture above. It almost looks like a kind of walking frame, and is constructed from a strong metal with dimensions of 900 mm high by 300 mm wide, which is green in colour and is powder coated to help to stop it from rusting.
At the bottom of the framework there are 5 evenly spaced hollow spikes (or tines as they are called), and each one of these tines is 100 mm long. Above the tines there is a metal bar which is used to press onto with your foot (or feet if the ground is extremely hard) which in turn pushes the tines into the ground, and creates the holes. The framework can then be pulled back out of the ground, and the whole process repeated about a pace away untill the whole garden has been aerated.
~~~~~ My opinion of the Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator ~~~~~
If I was to compare this aerator to my previous one, there would be no competition at all. I suspect that the same can be said for most other roller style aerators mainly due to the design. Yes the roller ones are a lot easier to use, but do they actually penetrate the ground more than a few mm's? It is so difficult to get the pressure required on the shaft of the roller to get the spikes deep into the ground.
The design of the Parasene aerator is superb in comparison, as the frame design gets the users whole body weight above the tines. The design also works great when it comes to storage, as it just hangs on a hook flat against the wall in my shed, as opposed to a bulky roller style aerator which takes up quite a bit more room.
I have used my Parasene Aerator on my lawn several times now, and there is a marked improvement to the moss. It thinned out very quickly, and is now almost gone completely. On top of this the drainage has improved a lot, which makes hanging out the washing a lot cleaner job on a dryer lawn. I suppose this should be the result of any good aerator or scarifier though?
What I really like about the Parasene aerator is the build quality. It is really sturdy and strong making it more than capable of holding my weight each time I stand on the framework to press the tines into the ground. The framework works well enabling you to hold on well as pressure is applied to the metal foot bar, and it is easy to grip onto to pull it back out of the ground again (giving it a bit of a wobble or shake as you do so helps to get it out easier).
Although my aerator is less than 6 months old, and has only been used a handful of times, it does still look like new, and I suspect that it will stand the test of time very well indeed.
My advice when using this (or any other aerator) is to make sure you wear some good strong footwear to protect the feet against any possible 'mis-aiming' of the tines - preferably metal toe capped but certainly not flip-flops! Also I guess it is fairly obvious that these things are much easier to use on a wet lawn (regardless of design), as the tines do go into the ground a lot easier when the ground is soft. If the soil is dry and hard it is difficult to get the tines to go very deep into the ground, and so it is well worth waiting for a good spell of rain before setting about the task of aerating the garden.
It is a time consuming task, and takes quite a bit of effort, but it is well worth it based on the results I have seen in my garden, and if anyone is considering buying an Aerator I would recommend spending a few extra pound to get a deent one like the Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator.
Highly recommended by me.
Thanks for reading.
This was something that that I remembered my granddad using on his lawns many years ago as I used to watch him pacing this device (or an earlier version) around the garden every foot or so creating holes in the ground. And here I am all these years later doing the same with my Parasene Aerator as my kids watch me. At the time, I thought he was just letting the air get into the soil, but it actually a slightly more scientific process than that.
Grass is a plant that needs water to grow. But with many of the lawns with properties nowadays (depending on where you live), the soil often contains a significant amount of clay, which is next to useless at allowing water to pass through it, meaning that during the rain, much of the water will stay on the surface. Other problems that you commonly find are that garden lawns are often very compacted as well through years of people walking across them, making it more difficult again for water to flow. When the surface of your lawn remains wet or too moist for too long, it can cause the grass to die, a little bit like overwatering a plant is just as bad as under watering it. So as the grass dies, you start to find that that dreaded moss moves in (which loves damp conditions), and then you get that dense green springy moss rapidly growing and spreading across your lawn. It further kills the grass and then you end up with a moss and weed strewn lawn.
So the idea is to create conditions in the soil to allow the water to drain away and allow the water in the soil to dry, and this is where this Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator comes in. Many people have probably never heard of this device, but for around the £20 mark, you get something that is best described as a sort of metal framework that is 36 inches high and 12 inches wide, which is then powder coated to provide some protection from corrosion. At the bottom, you have 5 hollow spikes (or tines as they are called), each being 4 inches long, with the top of each one evenly spaced and mounted to a base plate. Just above this base plate is a cross bar which is the bit you press your foot down onto as you hold and steady the top of the frame.
The idea is that you press these hollow spikes vertically into your lawn every foot or so to create a series of deep holes in the ground. As you push the spikes in, they cut a whole in the soil, taking out a 'plug' of soil which is eventually pushed out of the top. The purpose of this process is twofold. Initially, it creates a hole in the soil to allows air to get down into the soil and thereby prevents it from becoming too waterlogged. Secondly, it allows the water from the surface to drain away, thereby preventing the damp conditions on the surface that would promote moss to grow. If you really want to get the most from this process, the best thing to do is to pour a mixture of sharp sand and fine grit onto the lawn and brush it back and forth over the holes to fill them up. This then keeps the hole channel open to maintain drainage and aeration.
What's this aerator like to use? Well the best time to use it is when the lawn is damp, because it will be somewhat easier to push the spikes into the soil. Hold it upright, foot on the cross bar and press all the way down. Pull out, move about 12 inches forward and repeat the process again and again all over your lawn. So, very simple to use. The only problem you could possibly have with it is if you try to use it where the soil is very dry, where you'll then find it quite hard to push the spikes all the way down, and jumping onto the cross bar to try and force them in will eventually cause it to bend and fail. Durability wise, it also seems to last well. I've had mine for a few years now, and other than a few minor scratches and dents, it still working well. The only 'maintenance' that I ever do is to resharpen the ends of the spikes every so often with a file to ease the cutting process into the ground.
In summary, this can be a laborious process, especially if you have a large lawn, and you can get mechanical aerators that can do the job, but for very much more cost. But if you take a cost to effect comparison, this Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator wins hands down. I've been using this quite a while and my lawns look great with no moss or weeds, but that's because I put the effort in. Hence, if you want great looking lawns and are prepared to do some work, then this aerator comes highly recommended.
Review also on Ciao under Randal1.
My grandfather has always been a lover of his grass and his top lawn is a site for sore eyes, this love has been passed onto me and whilst my lawn is only half the size of his I do like a well kept lawn.
Grass and lawns
Grass is a plant which grows evenly and spreads very quickly, it does prefer dry and any ground which is prone to waterlog will cause the roots of the grass to fail to establish and lead to other undesirable plants to move in. The perfect conditions is a warm, dry spot with good drainage and without too much of a slope, if all these conditions are met then grass can be trained to grow as a uniform mat and become a pleasure to the eye. So my grandfathers grass lawn is set in the perfect grass growing conditions of east Lincolnshire, dry, warm and flat however I live in Sheffield which is wet, cold and hilly so my lawn is prone to flooding.
The answer
Well one is to big out the whole plot, give the soil a decent amount of sand and grit to improve drainage and a decent amount of rich loamy soil or you can buy an aerator which can be used to put holes in the soil to improve drainage. One costs a fortune, is back breaking and the other costs about £15 and takes a few minutes every week guess which one I went for?
So the aerator, as with all aerators it is a large set of metal pegs inserted into an elongated D frame. The top of the D is reinforced and allows for pressure to be applied inserting the pegs into the group. Pushing the pegs in will improve the drainage but you don't want to overdo either in terms of too many holes or too deep because again they would lead to water getting into the grasses root system. This piece of equipment has 5 pegs about 2 inches apart and if applied to a wet area will allow the water to be drained into the soil.
As with all pieces of garden equipment you do wonder if you need to buy it as a rake or garden fork would do the job as efficiently but in this case a fork can be overused and cause too deep a hole and a rake too shallow. So if you have a big lawn prone to bogginess then an aerator is useful if you want to prevent moss growing in your lawn and to try and gain a uniform lawn. So £15 might seem a bit of a punt for a piece of equipment which on the surface seems a bit of a niche market but if you have a large lawn then it's money very well spent, an aerator used every 1-2 weeks will significantly improve the quality of your lawn.
The parasene aerator is available at most decent stores.
The Parasene hollow tine aerator is something I have owned for a number of years now and is stored in my garage throughout the year apart from when in use. You could be forgiven for expecting an aerator to be of the traditional design which is a wheeled unit, but this aerator is very different. The first advantage of having this style and design of aerator is that you can target a particular area of your lawn, and apply pressure according to your preferences. You can vary the depth of aeration as and when you need to, and this appealed to me upon purchase.
I have found the aerator very effective, especially for deep aeration and on soil that a conventional wheeled areator may struggle. The tines are around 10cm long with the whole aerator measuring a width of 30cm. I would say the only thing that could possibly improve this piece of gardening equipment would be the handle. The top edge could have a rubber coating on it to help with grip and comfort, there could also be an adjustable height feature which would work similarly to that on a lawnmower. At the price of around £20-£25 I feel these features could have been included, and although I did pay this price i think it is a little on the expensive side considering what you are actually getting for your money.
The fact that this product is British made appeals to me very much so, and the 5 tines are still on very good nick considering their use. I would recommend this aerator for any keen gardener and if you suffer from standing pools of water then you could use this effective aerator and fill the voids with sand to aid drainage.
I picked this item up about two years ago, mainly because my lawn was having some problems with one end where water seemed to collect, thus getting alot of moss build up and poor grass coming through, which looked a bit naff in comparison to the rest of the lawn. Actually a friend had recommended using a garden aerator so i went down to a local garden centre and saw a number of aerators, all of which looked quite good but nowhere near as durable as this one, Which generally looked like a good finish product.
This is probably because at this point i was fed up of going for cheaper tools and finding them snap or corrode, having binned a shovel, rake and hoe recently before the purchase.
The aerator worked perfects with a wide heavy frame perfectly capable of being able to penetrate deep into the ground and provide air holes needed for better growth. The spikes are very firm and welded strongly to the frame, so i have no worries about bending or breaking off here. Another great design is the fact that there is a bar above the spikes providing enough room to get your foot behind it to apply some more pressure in ground that may need it.
Its hard to compare tools such as this to do such a simple job in the garden. But i am generally happy with the product and this tools advantages surely lay with the durability of it, with such a strudy contruction and finish to match it will surely stand the test of time unlike some of the tools i have got previous to this!
It is also rather low maintenance, and perhaps maybe for a lick of paint every few years to prevent rusting, its spikes on the bottom of the tool look like they could be sharpened relatively easily if you have the know how!
I must say it wasnt the cheapest of the garden aerators that i saw, but as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for, this is definately a situation for which that phrase applies for. Its a nice tool and would recommend.
Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator
A simple but practical product. The aerator is of steel build, painted black, with 5 tines. The build quality is good and feels firm when being used, not flexing. There is a bar above the tines which you use to push the tines into the ground making it easier to use. The price of the product is good in line with its build quality. We brought this aerator from our local garden centre. There were others on sale but this looked the better and one which would last longer.
The five tines are welded to place and have a sharp cutting edge cut into each. It is possible using a standard hand file to sharpen these tines and give the device a better cutting action and longer life. The handle / body of the aerator are made of tube and gives good rigidity when cutting into the ground. The depth of cut is controlled by the bar the tines are welded to, so this does limit the depth, however we have found the depth more than suitable.
The good bits about this tool is the feel of the build and ease of use, it is not difficult at all to use and the tines will clear themselves out once the next set of holes are cut. It is well made and has given us four years of good service. There really is no down side to this tool, it does what it is suppose to do with no problems. If you occasionally sharpen the tines especially when you hit stones it does maintain a good cutting edge.
Overall it does what it says on the package. Simple, strong, self cleaning and easily stored.
The Parasene Hollow Tine Aerator is an ideal instrument to improve the condition of lawn areas that are prone to poor growth or water logging, dealing with the problem of soil compaction in your lawn.

Bucs have breathing room in regard to Sanchez
BRADENTON, Fla. -- Jonathan Sanchez has given the Pirates one of those "good problems." Turns out, Pittsburgh general manager Neal Huntington will have two extra days to solve it -- an extension that could give the left-hander one more make-or-break start.
Sanchez, on an eight-inning shutout streak following his five-inning sparkler Thursday night, can request his release on Sunday if the club has not placed him on its Major League roster by then. However, Huntington said that the team will have until Tuesday to respond to that request, with either the release or the roster placement.
Sanchez's next turn to pitch would be that Tuesday. Whether he gets the ball again, Huntington said, has not yet been decided.
If released, Sanchez would be owed termination pay of $100,000. If retained, Sanchez's Major League contract would call for a guarantee of $1,375,000. He earned $5.6 million last season between the Royals and the Rockies.
A veteran of seven big league seasons, Sanchez is one of five non-roster pitchers remaining in camp. But he may have emerged as younger lefty Jeff Locke's chief competitor for the fifth spot in the rotation.
"We've seen some very good things from Jonathan. He is battle-tested. He knows how to get good Major League batters out," Huntington said. "Jonathan has a lot of things working in his favor, but we also look forward to [Kyle] McPherson and Locke and where they are."
"It's hard to be waiting, waiting," Sanchez said. "I want to be here. If they want me here, I'm happy to be here. If not. … I've been in this game a long time, and I know you've just got to go pitch. Don't worry about making the team or throwing strikes or anything else. Relax and throw the ball."

Police reports: Teen injured at party
July 9, 2012
Editor's note: The following excerpts were taken from Eagle County law enforcement officers and police reports.
A deputy interviewed two 19-year-old men at Avon Urgent Care on June 23 after they were assaulted at a party in the woods outside Wolcott. One of the men had a broken jaw, a concussion and cut on the back of his head.
The men said they ended up at a different party than the one they thought they were going to. They didn't know anyone but recognized a couple of women they'd seen before. The man who ended up with the broken jaw was talking to one of the women when a man walked up on his left side and punched him. The teen turned to look at the man and he punched him again, knocking him out.
The other 19-year-old went to help his friend up and the man punched him. He fought with the man for a minute until someone yelled that the police were coming and the man ran off.
The teens described the man as a Hispanic in his late 20s, about 5 foot, 8 inches tall and 170 pounds. The deputy told the teens to notify the sheriff's office if they find the suspect's identity.
Gas suckers
Recommended Stories For You
A resident of Spring Circle in Gypsum told deputies on June 17 that someone tried to siphon gas out of his truck the previous night.
The man said the siphoning of gas out of his vehicles has been a problem for a few years. It happens in spurts, usually on Friday and Saturday nights. He tried preventing it by keeping a porch light on and recently bought a gas cap with a lock on it. He showed the broken gas cap to the deputy and said gas was not siphoned out this time.
He said his family doesn't have problems with anyone and suspects that kids are responsible.
Criminal trespassing
A deputy went to an impound lot in Gypsum on June 18 on a report that a 19-year-old man broke into the lot to get things from his car, which was impounded three days earlier. The man was quoted as saying he was going to drive his car out of the lot.
He told the officer that he called the lot that day to get his checkbook from the car and was told that no one could help him on Sundays. He would have to wait a day. So he slipped through a gap in the fence and went into his car, looking for his checkbook.
The deputy arrested the man, cited him for criminal trespassing and released him.
The owner of the impound lot said he towed the car from private property after the property owner complained. The car was also properly tagged by the sheriff's office.
Bar fight
Deputies investigated reports of a fight at an Edwards bar on June 23.
An officer arrived and saw the bar owner standing outside. His shirt was torn and he had a bloody nose. He said there were about 10 men who left in a red Jeep, going up Bull Run toward the church. He said a man in a blue shirt punched him.
The deputy went up Bull Run to Lariat Loop and found the suspect vehicle. She saw two people walking away into a field and others were in and around the Jeep.
The officer told the people walking away to stop but they ignored her and continued walking out of sight. The people around the car initially ignored her orders to come to her as well. They eventually complied except for two men in the car.
One man was 35 years old, had blood all over him and a torn blue shirt. The other man was 23 and very intoxicated. He was missing his shoes and didn't know how he lost them. He had a bloody lip and told the deputy different stories of what happened at the bar. The most coherent one he told said he fought the bar owner's 21-year-old son over a girl. The 35-year-old man said the bar owner punched him so he punched him back.
The officer told the two men they were being cited for assault.
One of the women identified herself as the driver. She said she came to pick the men up after her boyfriend called and when she arrived they were fighting outside the bar. The woman didn't have a license but the deputy let her go with a warning so that she could drive the men home.
The deputy then returned to the bar, where the owner and his son were cleaning up a broken window that had been in the door. She asked the 21-year-old son if he'd been in a fight. He said he only tried to separate it, that it started between the 35-year-old and 23-year-old when they were being asked to leave so that the bar could close. The deputy asked to see the 21-year-old's hands, which showed no evidence of him hitting anyone.
The bartender confirmed the 21-year-old's account. He said the group of men started fighting a couple times and he saw the bar owner get punched as he tried to get them out of the bar. On their way out, the 35-year-old punched the window in the door, breaking the first pane of glass, and the 23-year-old punched out the second pane.
The bar owner estimated the window would cost about $500 to repair.
The deputy went to the men's homes and notified them they would be charged with criminal mischief as well for the broken window.
Shooting cars on the highway
Three people driving on U.S. Highway 6 near Arrowhead Drive in Edwards on June 23 reported their car windows were shot out with a BB gun or golf ball as they were driving. The evidence seemed to indicate a BB gun.
Minturn squatters
On June 26, a Minturn landlord told deputies that two men were squatting in his rental unit.
He said his previous renter moved out and neighbors noticed two unknown men who started coming and going from the house that was supposed to be empty. The landlord didn't want to charge the men, he only wanted a deputy along for his safety when he made them leave.
The men weren't there when the deputy and landlord arrived but there were three dogs, a backpack and a box of cleaning supplies. The landlord changed the locks and the items were left on the doorstep with a note from the deputy explaining the situation. An animal control officer took custody of the dogs.
Gas skip
A woman drove away from an Edwards gas station on June 19 after she pumped gas and was told the store could not accept checks. The woman asked if she could go to the bank and return to pay the bill. The clerk said that was fine as long as she left some identification. The woman refused and left. Deputies investigated information associated with the woman's license plate number but it was apparently expired or false.
Pickup rummaged
Items were stolen from a box in the bed of a pickup truck parked on Riverview Road in Gypsum on June 19. The items were worth about $90 and were used for trailers. The owner said the truck's glove box was rummaged about two weeks earlier.

Four People in a RaceLogic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.
John, Paul, George, and Ringo all enter a race, but there is nobody at the finish line to judge the ending. When the judge finally shows up to award the prize for coming in first, these are the statements the four of them make:
John: I was neither first nor last.
Paul: I did not finish last.
George: I won the race!
Ringo: I came in last.
The judge starts to hand George the prize, when Yoko, who was watching the race, says, "Exactly one of these four is lying."
To whom should the judge grant the prize?
AnswerThe prize should go to Paul.
If John is lying, then George and Ringo would be telling the truth, which would mean John was not lying, so he can't be the liar.
If Paul was lying, then Ringo would also be lying, so he must be telling the truth, as well.
So we now know that neither John nor Paul finished last. If Ringo was lying, then George would have finished last, which would mean that he was lying, as well. So Ringo can't be lying.
This leaves George as our liar, so we know George did not finish first. Neither did Ringo (he finished last), nor did John (he finished neither first nor last). Therefore, Paul won the race!

Dane Kable, known as CB Man, recently emailed me about a new restaurant opening in Westel at exit 338 off Interstate 40.
You've probably noticed, in view from the interstate at Westel, all the motor homes at the Boat-N-RV Superstore that began developing in 2008.
Mountain Top Inn opened in late February as an addition to Boat-N-RV. It faces the interstate, on the left as you travel toward Nashville from Roane County.
URS/CH2M Oak Ridge LLC recently completed a three-year landfill cleanup project on schedule, under budget and without a single work-related injury, not even a first-aid case.
Workers cleaning up the 6.5-acre K-1070B burial ground adjacent to the K-25 demolition project worked 205,800 accident-free hours while excavating 100,200 cubic yards of soil and debris.
"This is proof that the goal of zero accidents on a project can be achieved," said UCOR President and Project Manager Leo Sain.
Gene Ice will discuss "X-ray and Neutron Optics for Spatially-Resolved Characterization of Materials" during the May 16 luncheon meeting of Friends of Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Ice is director of the Materials Science and Technology Division, an ORNL Corporate Fellow, a fellow of the American Physical Society and an ASM International Fellow.
A two-day employment assistance workshop for Tennessee National Guard members, Reservists and veterans is planned this week in Chattanooga.
Military spouses may also take advantage of the May 16-18 event, which is completely free to participants in the Army Reserve Center at 6503 Bonny Oaks Drive, Chattanooga.
Seats are limited. Those interested in attending are asked to contact Joe Thomas at email@example.com or 615-313-0752.
The College of Engineering at Tennessee Technological University recently honored Aleisa Cummins Bloom as the 2012 Technologist of Distinction.
Bloom, of Kingston, is a graduate of Tennessee Tech. She was honored during this year's Engineers Week at the Cooke-ville-based university.
Bloom is a group leader for sustainability and technology deployment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Environmental Sciences Division.
When the phone stopped ringing, Mark Boody knew hard times were coming.
Boody had his own home-remodeling business. In good years, he would get 20 calls a month, give 10 estimates and land five projects.
Then, the economic downturn hit, and the housing market weakened.
The calls dropped to three or four a month. The projects slumped to one a month.
U.S. Department of Energy cleanup contractor Safety and Ecology Corp. recently removed four structures as part of the Building 3026 C/D Hot Cells Project.
The structures, which once processed radioisotopes, have been a safety concern for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory since the building's outer structure was removed in 2010.
The Roane County Chamber of Commerce presented its prestigious annual business awards last month during its annual springtime banquet in Whitestone Country Inn.
The awards were presented, along with recognition of Chamber board members, before a capacity crowd of community and business leaders from all across Roane County.
Statistics released late last week indicate that Roane County's employment situation continues to look better.
The Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development reports the county's March unemployment rate at 7.5 percent, a decrease of 0.3 percent.
That means 25,620 workers in the county's 27,700 labor force were employed last month.
Those numbers are also better than the same period last year, when Roane County recorded a jobless rate at 7.9 percent.
Tony Fountain of URS/CH2MHill Oak Ridge, LLC, will be the guest speaker during the next East Tennessee Chapter of the National Contract Management Association monthly membership luncheon.
Fountain will discuss UCOR and the East Tennessee Technology Park (formerly K-25 Plant) during the luncheon, which begins at 11:30 a.m. May 2 in Double Tree Hotel, Oak Ridge.
Lunch is $15 for members; those who are not members of the organization pay $20 each.

Practically gale-force winds on Oct. 27 from what became Hurricane Sandy didn't stop my nephew and his bride from having a garden wedding at their home near Fayetteville, N.C.
Flowering plants in pots kept getting blown over, and it sprinkled an hour before the ceremony, but the wedding went off with just the legal "hitch." And although my Sunday evening flight home out of Charlotte originated in New York, we were only delayed 20 minutes or so. All in all, I felt lucky to escape the complications of Superstorm Sandy.
New York City residents weren't so fortunate. Bobbi Bach, of Blackhawk, told me that her son, David, and his family were evacuated from their building on the Hudson River in Battery Park City, located in lower Manhattan only three blocks from Ground Zero. Hotels that David checked had raised their prices to $1,500 a night and up, she said, so he and his wife, Alatia, and 21/2-year-old son, James, were invited by his ex-wife to shelter in the three-bedroom apartment she shares with her husband and two-month-old baby. Although it was a little cozy, Bobbi said the two families treated their two nights together like an extended sleepover.
"There was actually no damage to David's building, that's really right on the water," Bobbi said. "It was amazing. They were able to keep their Halloween plans in the building, too."
"It's basically power off, and city shut down from 24th downtown," David reported on his Facebook page Oct. 31. "Somehow, we are on the grid with power in Battery Park."
David is a financial author, television personality, motivational speaker, entrepreneur and founder of FinishRich.com. He has written 12 books, including the Finish Rich series with national bestsellers Debt Free for Life and The Automatic Millionaire. He regularly appears on the Today Show's Money 911 segment on Wednesday mornings, covering financial, consumer and pocketbook issues.
David moved to New York from San Francisco in 2011. He was scheduled to speak at a conference Thursday through Sunday in Santa Clara, providing flights began running again, Bobbi said.
TREE OF LIGHTS: Hospice of the East Bay, a nonprofit agency that helps people cope with end-of-life issues, is sponsoring its 26th annual Tree of Lights ceremonies in 11 locations throughout Contra Costa in November and December. Each light on every tree is symbolic of a life and will shine in honor or memory of a beloved friend or family member.
Blackhawk's Tree of Lights ceremony is at 5 p.m. Dec. 7 just outside the main entrance to Blackhawk Country Club on Blackhawk Road at Blackhawk Drive. The Danville tree will be lit at 5:30 p.m. at the Town Meeting Hall, 201 Front St. Ceremonies include Hospice Foundation leaders, local dignitaries and choral music.
Lights can be dedicated for a minimum gift of $25. Proceeds benefit communities and the patients and families in care of Hospice of the East Bay. For light purchases and donations, call 925-887-5678, or visit www.hospiceeastbay.org.
Toys for Kids: Danville residents Mike Lippitt and Gerry Price are the organizers of a Toys for Kids collection in conjunction with a racquetball tournament Dec. 15 at ClubSport San Ramon. Dubbed a "Competition for a Greater Cause," the toy collection is in association with Hayward Firefighters. Unwrapped new toys, for children who otherwise might not receive a gift during the holiday season, will be collected at ClubSport San Ramon, 350 Bollinger Canyon Lane, between Dec. 10 and Dec. 15.

My Wrestlemania Bookings
by, 01-25-2013 at 08:15 PM (3482 Views)
Dark Match: Tag Team Turmoil for the titles: Rhodes Scholars(c) vs. PTP vs. E&P vs. The Usos
At RR, Hell No loses these titles. At EC, for the rematch, Kane walks out on Daniel Bryan. So here we are. No time wasted, Rhodes Scholars retain.
01. World Heavyweight Title- Randy Orton(c)vs. Sheamus
At EC, the last two combatants are Sheamus and Orton for the title. Orton wins, and Dolph tries to cash in. Randy with an RKO. The next Friday on Smackdown to boost ratings, Orton vs. Del Rio in a rematch, Dolph comes out to try to interfere and distracts Del Rio. Orton retains and Sheamus kicks Randy's head off for this setup. Expect Orton to retain.
02. Daniel Bryan vs. Kane
See the dark match for this setup. Expect DB to get his WM moment finally.
03. MITB Briefcase: Alberto Del Rio vs. Dolph Ziggler
See Randy's match for this setup. Expect Dolph Ziggler to retain. And just as Big E Langston goes to attack ADR, expect Dolph to save him for a face turn.
04. MITB Match: Big Show vs. Ryback vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reins vs. Wade Barret vs. Kofi Kingston
WWE wants to bring the MITB ladder match back to Wm. So WWE wants some big names to appear on here and here they are. They also want Ryback to get his WM moment as well as the win, so expect Ryback to win AAAANNNNNND cash in on the winner of the WWE title match.
05. United States Title: Antonio Cesaro vs. The Miz
No time wasted as we see the beef these two have. Expect The Miz to win this title.
06. Last Man Standing/Loser Mst Retire: Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar
The reason why I have two stips is this: WWE is trying to get Lesnar to re-sign with them. If Lesnar declines it, then expect Triple H to win with the Loser stip, and announce his retirement the next night. If Lesnar re-signs, it will be a Last Man Standing match. If he does re-sign, expect Triple H to win.
07.Christian, Santino, Justin Gabriel, Jack Swagger vs. Tensai, 3MB
This is WWE's yearly joke tag match to include a great deal of people. As always, WWE will run this for two minutes and expect Christian's team to win.
08. Undertaker vs. John Cena
When The Rock comes out on Raw as the WWE Champion after EC, John Cena interrupts him. Lights go out as he walks down the stage, lights come back and Taker does his taunt in front of Cena.
MAIN EVENT 09. WWE Title: The Rock(c) vs. CM Punk
Like I said, at EC The Rock will win the title (mainly so WWE only has to go a month without the WWE title at house shows instead of two at RR), and Punk wants his rematch clause. But he wants it at WM so he can show everybody on the grandest stage of em all, that without five other men beating him down in a chamber, he can beat The Rock one on one and prove that he is the best in the world. Expect Punk to win the title. BUT WAIT!!!! Here comes Ryback! Ryback cashes in on Punk and wins the WWE title. See? he got his WM moment by being the only man to cash in at WM.
Love me or hate me, this is pretty realistic. And the reason why Cena won't be against The Rock at WM29, is because we are doing fine without Cena as champ. Give me feedback. Negative and all.

The documentary team is pleased to share some production stills from the just released Creative Inspirations installment about Hello Design. We shot at Hello's Culver City, California studio that they (of course) designed themselves. It's a great collaborative space with lots of daylight. It's also next door to Tea Forest, the popular coffee/tea shop built by CEO David Lai and his wife. Started as more of an experiment, Tea Forest is now a bustling part of their neighborhood. We also shot at a number of locations including the amazing Walt Disney Concert Hall. Because of Hello's working relationship with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, we were able to get permission to shoot in this architectural marvel as part of our story about the Bravo Gustavo, the iPhone app they developed to promote new conductor Gustavo Dudamel. Enjoy!
Creative Inspirations director Scott Erickson works with cinematographer Jacob K. Cunningham as they set up their next shot at Hello Design's studio.

But for three brothers, Justin, Jescus and Levi Mitchell, they lost a father.
The Mitchell boys have not forgotten what happened that day, nor have they stopped honoring him both on the basketball court and in the classroom, two things that Gregory preached to his sons as important.
All three are juniors at Wayne High School and play on the varsity basketball team along with making grades good enough for the Honor Roll.
"My dad used to always talk about if he was to die the next day, what would we do?" Justin said. "He prepared us for this situation and dedicating ourselves to basketball and school and to work hard every day."
The Mitchell boys were not home when their father was tragically killed just a week before school let out. The days and weeks that followed were filled with grief, and six months later Justin can still hear his dad yelling at him on the basketball court.
"He was like our second coach, he would always let us know how we were doing from the crowd," Justin said. "It is kind of different without my dad."
Justin and Jescus are twins, with Levi the third brother. At some point in elementary school, Gregory moved all three into the same grade, so they could grow up together. No one could have foreseen what kind of tragedy the family would go through, but being together has helped immeasurably.
The Wayne basketball program is off to a 3-0 start this season, with the solid chemistry of the Mitchell brothers being on the court together no doubt part of the reason.
"It is a lot easier when you have your brothers out there and you know what they are going to do," Justin said.
The trio now lives with an aunt and uncle and has continued to earn good grades and stay out of trouble despite their father being gone.
"Their dad was a big basketball advocate and he brought them up the right way," Wayne basketball coach Aaron Rehrer said. "He focused on academics as well and did a great job with them.
"They do not get in trouble, and they are some of the hardest workers on the basketball court."
A lot of the basketball attention centers on Justin, a 6-foot-4 guard who is averaging 25 points and 12 rebounds so far this season. He has received letters of interest from several universities, including Butler, Indiana State and Xavier, but has yet to receive any scholarship offers.
That should change if he continues his excellent play on the court and his dedication to school off of it.
"I have known Justin since he was in sixth grade and is just a great kid," Rehrer said. "He has started every game since his fifth game of his freshman year and he never comes off the court unless he is in foul trouble.
"He has a motor that just won't quit."
Over the years, many prep basketball players' careers have been derailed by issues far less life-changing than what the Mitchells have gone through. But the three are refusing to let what happened to their father be an excuse to stop concentrating on their schoolwork or to get involved with the wrong crowd.
"It has been messy and difficult for all of them," Rehrer said. "They have had to deal with that over the last several months but have still been great kids."

TIVERTON and Honiton MP, Neil Parish, has welcomed government plans to lower energy bills for residents across Devon.
Following the Prime Minister's promise last month to take action to get people the lowest tariffs for their energy bills, ministers have now announced plans to force energy suppliers to offer their customers the best deals.
Under these proposals, households will no longer face hundreds of tariffs, with energy companies limited to four tariffs per fuel.
Energy companies will have to make bills simpler for customers to understand and outline personalised information on the cheapest tariff they can offer.
With over £300 difference between the cheapest and the most expensive tariffs on the market, the Prime Minister's action is likely to make a significant difference to Devon's householders worried about their energy bills.
Mr Parish had raised his concerns back in October about the lack of competition in the energy market and the effect it was having on fuel poor households, particularly in rural areas.
He wrote to the energy minister John Hayes MP asking for more support for pensioners and other vulnerable households.
The government's fuel poverty statistics showed that last year, Tiverton and Honiton was one of the worst 10 areas in the South West for fuel poverty.
Of the 42,066 household in Tiverton and Honiton, 7,712 are deemed 'fuel poor', meaning that they need to spend 10% of their income on fuel to heat their homes on top of their other energy needs.
That accounts for 18.3% of households struggling to pay their energy bills, which Mr Parish said is particularly worrying in an area that is home to many elderly and retired residents, and where wages are 12% below the national average.
"The Prime Minister promised to take action to get people the lowest tariffs and he has delivered," he said.
"'Households across Devon will welcome this move to get their energy bills down. This action shows that the Government is serious about helping people with the cost of living.
"Along with tax cuts, council tax freezes and all time low interest rates protecting mortgage payment, this action on energy prices will really help with family budgets."

Just found this video. I'm assuming this is where the Granger trade idea came from. Skip to about the 2:12 mark.
Doesn't look like it's a real rumor or anything.
No kidding, I love Danny but this is about as good a scenario you could ever hope if you have to part ways with him. We send him to a team where he can be the perimeter scoring threat and probably still make the playoffs and we address all our long term needs. This is way too good to be true.
that plays a lot like an ESPN producer said "hey, trade deadline's this week. let's put together a spot showing how the Trade Machine works and get a bunch of traffic to the site."
Makes no sense for the Jazz..
As the poster you quoted said, "I'm not seeing anything special" from those numbers you posted.
Hayward is a pretty good player, I always think of a quicker/more athletic version of Mike Dunleavy (pre/knee injury) which isn't too bad at all.
Hayward would be perfect for our bench. As would Milsap. Frankly this trade is just a tease because it would make us clearly the best team in the East other than Miami and a front court rotation of West, Hibbert, Milsap, and Mahinmi would be absolute murder on the Heat.
The guy in the video pretty clearly said that this trade will probably not happen but they just used it as an example of what could happen as the trade deadline looms.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
rather try and get bledsoe
You mean Utah should (which was a previous rumor), or the Pacers should? If you are speaking of the Pacers, why would you rather have one pretty good player as opposed to two?
Nothing wrong with Bledsoe, but I'd rather have the two guys from Utah - IF Millsap signs an extension.
Last edited by Tom White; 02-18-2013 at 04:50 PM.
Can Milsap signing an extension be part of the deal? Or is it required he have his free agency this summer?

I'd rather us try to get Bledsoe. Bledsoe>Hill IMO

Pacers trade for Milsap and Hayward.
Flip Milsap + filler for Bledsoe + filler
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
I do not believe this for a second, Utah is not that stupid. But, if the Pacers can make this trade, pull the trigger quick..... ...
if clippers go for granger, it would be bledsoe + someone else to make salaries work. if lac wanted a backup pg we can send them dj. i read where clippers fans are growing tired of caron butler so add him in and salaries would be pretty close.
bledsoe + butler for granger + dj + hans (if they wanted)
We cannot give them Granger + DJ + Hans. The salaries do not work.
If we were to include DJ + Hans ($19,613,865) they would have to cut $7,379,215 off their books. So, they would need to add Lamar Odom as well to make the salaries work.
However, Danny Granger for Bledsoe + Butler + Trey Thompkins would work.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
If were going to make such a deal I would look to include Orlando.
This works financially:
Pacers receives: Paul Millsap and JJ Redick
Utah receives: Danny Granger + Pacers 1st
Orlando receives: Gordon Hayward and Tyler Hansbrough
Obviously by making this deal were going all-in this year as both guys are free agents this summer and theres a good chance we won't be able to keep both. I think Orlando makes the deal. They are probably losing Redick for nothing this summer so getting Hayward on a rookie deal is a good return. Tyler is probably just a rental for them. Utah is the wildcard. If Danny was 100% healthy and had no knee concerns I think they make the deal but right now I doubt they go for it unfortunately.
Danny and a 1st for 2 expirings that won't be resigned. Not a fan, but it could make the Pacers formidable in the playoffs. Too huge a gamble for a small market team to be making. If Hayward were coming here and Milsap going to Orland, then yes.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
If getting Bledsoe and butler meant taking on odom for a year I would be all in for that deal while only losing granger

Find the 10 differences
I still view Granger as the best offensive option of the package, so I still think it's good value for both teams. Wouldn't do it anymore though. We need the scoring and experience more than we need another very good allround wing who can score allright and Millsap is expiring and not that much needed with West here.

Anxiety and Stress Disorders
Stress causing MIGRANE Headaches
About 9 years ago my wife and I experienced a very stressful period. Our sons were in a car accident and with one of the sons it was really touch and go. My question has to do with my wife shutting off her tears back then to "be strong" for everyone. Still 9 years later she cannot cry. By withholding her tears the stress builds up to the point that she gets terrible migranes (which she has imitrex for) but sometimes she turns to alcohol ahead of the headache to try to remove what she calls "the pain".
She went to therapy for about 1 year and while it helped with other issues, it hasn't helped her to cry.
Since money it tight, I would like to know if there are things we can do on our own to help her cry again. We've tried sad movies and there have been a few tears but when a real-life sadness hits – no tears, just debilitating headaches.
If we have to try a therapist again, is there a psychologist specialty we should look for?
Thank you for any advice or ideas you can offer.
It certainly sounds like your wife could be suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. I would not focus on "crying" -- I would encourage you to think about more important things about how she and your family are doing. The VA website, the National Center for PTSD states there are four types of symptoms in PTSD: reliving the event, avoidance, numbing, and feeling keyed up. I encourage you and your wife to read more about PTSD at the weblinks and see if you think these descriptions sound like what your wife might be experiencing.
PTSD can be treated, but it may take some time, and may include both counseling and medication. There may also be other problems besides PTSD, such as depression or anxiety, that may need longer or more intensive therapy.
I cannot diagnose your wife over the internet, but I encourage you to read the weblinks on PTSD, and then to talk to your primary care physician as a good starting place to help with the diagnosis. This person may also be a good resource to find a good counselor or therapist for your wife if needed.
Good Luck.
