Well we all know that the missionary position doesn't count as sex (Source: US Presidential handbook), so yeh, probably does depend on that.:)

What up errb!!! I'm a sports freak. The only reason we still have a TV. I love almost all of it (can't really dig regular season hockey). I don't care if they are overpaid, I don't care if they are premadonnas, I just love watching the top level athletes do amazing things on the field/ court/ track/ whatever. And I love the competition.

In fact I think the thing I love most about sports is how people everywhere love them. I love football (the one where they actually kick it all the time) and that means i have something in common with millions upon millions of people. I could be dropped from a helicoptor in central africa and one thing we would have in common would be football. I was in New York last year (i'm from california) and waiting for my wife to buy something, we were in little italy. These two ladies came up and asked for directions, I told them I was visiting too. They were from calgary, and we got to talking about the flames for about 5 minutes. Was really nice to feel related to them strait away. Passed the time till wife got back. She came out and thought I knew the people lol.

I love sport!

you know it always bugs me when people say footballers are overpaid. they simply aren't. if you're the best in the world or near enough then why shouldn't you be paid accordingly?

lol.... they aren't all overpaid. Just the ones who can't score a goal. Andy Carrol? Addebayor? Didn't they sign Fat contracts and stink it up for the next couple years? Otherwise athletes are underpaid, if you look at what their bosses are making.

The real fact of the matter that drives the whole discussion. WE, the fans, spend too much money on our teams. If 'we' weren't shilling out $350 for a jersey, or paying insane prices for parking, tickets, soda, and beer. If we didn't order the extra packages on our directv. If the money stopped pouring in, there wouldn't be anything to complain about.

I mean what do you want the teams to do, take what profit they need, then send the rest to charity?

what i wouldn't mind seeing is performance related pay. though a lot of teams do incentivise goals. few extra grand in the weeks pay for a goal.

if only i could kick the thing straight lol. my mates call me 50p toes :(

Spread Master Light Diffuser

I am going to the store to get a new light and I saw this:



The Spread Master installs underneath the arc tube of your HID lamp (the part that generates the light). This area creates a tremendous amount of radiant heat and what is known as a "hot spot" of concentrated light. The Spread Master effectively diffuses the light and heat allowing for a more even light spread across your garden canopy and significantly reduces radiant heat. This allows you to lower your reflector closer to the plant canopy which when used properly can increase light uniformity across your garden and increase plant growth and ultimately lead to higher yields (reports indicate 50% increased yields are not uncommon!).


While I think the 50% claim is bullshit, I think I'll give it a shot on my 600 watt hps.
$20, why not?

Lets beg to differ about salaries of pro stars then, otherwise it may get a little bit too political in here. :)

Trousers, please tell us how you get on with your light diffuser. I have never been sure of those things.

Well i need to clarify and apologize to european football players cause i was thinking of american sports athlete's at the time, I was watching a guy who was pulling like 2 mil a year just to sit on the bench! lmao i was jealous im over it now! Moving right along i made the mistake of slidddding inot my local hydro store today, got talked outa the advanced melonhead into a raptor 600 hps. I got some hazard pay i was due and gosh darn it i wanna upgrade. Prob is these guys would tell me its rasining and piss down my back im sure, Here's the setup i know you guys will blow that dude outa the water with spot on information rather than sales driven drivel! Gonna put the new hood into a growlab 120 3'x3'x7ft, and need advice on what would be the better set-up with this tent. To be honest the melonhead looked awesome but the last thing i need is ducting or the flashing be too big for my tent holes!

Hmmmm so with proper airflow and this you should be able to get as close as one needs to the light eh?

I have enough airflow so that the plants are only limited by too much light close up. I've bleached a few of my buds. I think one or two of those would work real nice with what i have going on now with the bare bulb.
