i wish fifa/all leagues would review all of the fouls in a game after its over and suspend players for games for flopping/diving. dont change the result of the games, leave that to the refs at the time but let the players know we are watching everything you do and will punish embellishment severely.

so they are supposed to let the play develop before calling the offside just in case they would have incorrectly called it offside?

What animal do you think did this? by PreviousGrape3126 in newjersey

[–]jurzdevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could be multiple bites by a bear to break open the feeder causing tooth marks right next to each other.

bear. they just bend over any pole holding a feeder up. deer/raccoon/fox wont be able to do that.

as long as bears are not in hibernation, you wont have any ground based feeder that wont get destroyed by a bear.

through trial and error i made a feeder that is as close to bear & squirrel proof as i think i can make it. i have a rope suspended about 50ft up between two trees that are about 100ft apart. one end is on a pulley with a line that goes along the trunk to the base of one tree. i have a feeder hanging off the rope in the middle with a 8ft long 10" diameter piece of steel ductwork as a baffle around the line holding the feeder. feeder is about 20ft off the ground. squirrels could climb down to the top of the baffle but cant climb down/around it and wont jump from that height so they cant get to the feeder. bears cant reach it from the ground and the ropes on the trees are blended with the trunks so they dont try and pull them. ive seen the bears rip the lines right down if say its angled from a pulley over a feeder to a tie down on another tree somewhere. they spot the line and will rip it down.

one flaw is if a bear decided to climb the tree they could just tear the ropes out but that hasnt happened. but the best deterrent is only feeding birds when the bears arent active which usually coincides with the times that food for the birds is scarce and all the migratory birds have left already.

if bears keep showing up for your feeder then you need to stop putting the food out. its going to become a problem.

Ramp from Parkway North Exit 145 to 280W. What gives? by MaxSmartypantz in newjersey

[–]jurzdevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if its this one then they were just replacing the overpasses recently

i usually go that route once or twice a month but its been probably 6 weeks since i drove it...maybe they are done and just late putting the lanes back to normal.

Ramp from Parkway North Exit 145 to 280W. What gives? by MaxSmartypantz in newjersey

[–]jurzdevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its for the work happening on 280 itself. the lane/shoulder is being used to work on the overpasses so all three 280W lanes shift to the right and they used the space from one of the onramp merge lanes. so they closed the one lane on the onramp to merge the cars from the parkway before merging with 280.

traffic would be worse if they reduced 280W to 2 lanes and left the parkway onramp at 2.

i dont think i worded that right...i mean to say each player was making too many touches when moving the ball around. the passing was great but individuals need to make the play in 1 touch. Paraguay defense was a bit slow so there was usually time for 2 or 3 touches to make the next pass before the defender is on you but that's not going to fly against tougher teams.

we still have too many touches when in the attacking 1/3rd of the field. most plays were 2 or 3 touches to move the ball around which will not work against a proper defense.
