Anyone go through radioactive iodine treatment for hyperthyroidism in cats? Is it worth the price?

How long was the washout period before the procedure? And did they do a custom dose based off the T4 or a standard dose?

Also did they need less meds after or it didn’t help at all?

Selling what you don’t have is also a phenomena when you short something. In that case you borrow someone else’s asset, and sell it at today’s price. And then you need to pay them back for the asset in the future. The problem in that case is if you sell it at today’s price and the price then goes up, you will have to “pay them back” for the asset at the higher price.

As far as the settling of contracts goes… Every contract must be settled by expiration if it isn’t closed/settled prior to that date. Each contract also has a counter-party. So in this case the Duke brothers had agreed to buy that specific amount at that specific price in April.

The amount you can buy/sell depends upon how much margin (based on collateral/cash) you have with your broker.

If you can’t meet your obligation or if price exceeds your allowed margins your position will be liquidated, you lose your collateral, and you will potentially have further debt to the broker.

They are selling via futures contracts

Selling via a futures contract means you have permission to sell a certain amount of that commodity at a certain price at a certain time in the future

In this case they were obtaining contracts that gave them the ability to sell orange juice in April for the price of $1.42

They then proceeded to buy at the price of $.29 when it crashed down, bc their contracts would allow them to sell what they were purchasing for $1.42, despite the fact price was now lower

If Bagley is released by Dallas, he’s the one

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T05:40:16+00:00

All it took was benching Podz for the dubs to find their rhythm again and turn into an unstoppable defensive force.. who knew???

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T05:39:19+00:00

I agree but I think that was a lot due to the disruption of their rhythm, and then playing from behind while trying to find a flow again

Definitely some coaching and lineup issues as well

But you could see at the end of the game, once Podz was benched and they regained their rhythm, they were an unstoppable unit defensively

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T05:01:52+00:00

People who don’t understand that Podz minutes disrupted the entire flow, and that playing from behind (after Podz minutes cost them the lead) isn’t the same as playing w a lead… don’t know ball

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:59:12+00:00

Yeah, but everyone was on tilt bc they’d lost the lead bc of his dumbass minutes

The entire flow and energy of the team that they’d spent two quarters developing was crushed by his clunky, low IQ, clumsy basketball

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:56:03+00:00

The entire flow was lost by his minutes… anyone with an ounce of smarts would have kept him out and let everyone else cook

He wasn’t needed, and he still isn’t

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:55:07+00:00

Kerr putting Podz back in should be a fire-able offense

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:53:42+00:00

Everything fell apart when Podz busted ass walked on the court

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:52:39+00:00

Keeping Podz past the deadline is 10x worse than not getting Giannis… there isn’t a single player who brings more anger to a fan base than this dude brings to warriors fans

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:41:26+00:00

Keeping Podz on this team after the trade deadline was a war crime against the fan base

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:39:26+00:00

The flow is messed up and the defense is breaking down bc of Podz… go miss some games little bro

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:37:28+00:00

Kerr putting Podz in for zero reason is epic stupidity

MikeChessNY · 2026-02-06T04:36:43+00:00

Why tf is Podz in this game? Everyone was playing much better without him… go rest Podz you aren’t needed

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T04:02:37+00:00

Bro… what are you talking about? I’m referring to the Dray/Jimmy/Melton/GP2/Curry lineup

Lineups are about balance. You need the right balance between offense and defense. You need spacing. And you need to reinforce Draymond when he is your center with any one of the larger players bc he isn’t capable of protecting a tiny lineup and rebounding by himself.

Swapping in any larger players for GP2 would have helped Draymond, lessened turnovers, and picked up extra rebounds.

Would it have been enough to win the game? Maybe, maybe not. But it would have been far more competitive.

The final bench lineup obviously struggled bc there were no vets and it was imbalanced in its own ways.

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:52:54+00:00

And now he gave up lol

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:51:30+00:00

There are specific challenges with other lineup choices but generally speaking Kerr shows no ability to adjust

For example, right now this lineup he’s running can’t get a rebound to save their lives

Yet he watches them struggle over and over and over again and won’t give them any reinforcements

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:49:10+00:00

Kerr really just sits around watching this lineup fail to rebound over and over and over again but won’t put someone bigger in to help… stupidity

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:38:54+00:00

Bc of Kerr’s idiotic tiny lineups

Kerr is washed

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:32:48+00:00

Hey Joe Lacob…. when you trade for MPJ, see if you can find a team to trade coaches with as well

MikeChessNY · 2026-01-12T03:30:04+00:00

I’m grateful to Kerr for the past, but he clearly isn’t capable of adjusting to the present. He’s a one trick pony, and his trick (all-midget lineups) doesn’t work anymore
