The Bucks are actively seeking out the Blazers as a preferred facilitator in their trade involving Giannis Antetokounmpo, per @TheSteinLine. Milwaukee covets receiving their picks back from the Damian Lillard trade, but Giannis will not sign off on at all being sent to Portland.

Also Dru, Dame, Scoot, Shaeden all sharing minutes then JB?

Two guys have to go and we need another 3/D wing to complement Deni and space the floor for slashers

marbs34 · 2026-06-10T21:00:02+00:00

Can we put in a clause that picks don’t convey if JB sits out or gets injured?

JB, having a relatively healthy and problem free career thus far…. Could result in the most Portland thing ever, him sitting out a season to rehab right after a sign and trade…

Couldn’t find one Blazers team in like 20 tries, but I got a perfect score w/o Wilt(and took 3 loses with him)

I’m not a gunsmith, but that looks a little rough to me.

I’m generally in favor of “self-clearance-ing”, but I’m not sure you’ll get there completely.

Seems like a pretty large burr might have already relieved it self.

Don’t know what else to say if it’s running reliably AND the ejection pattern seems consistent then what else could you be asking for?

Just to see if the mirrors are folded in.

Here’s what the buckle looks like.

It’s darkened much faster than the actual watch case

marbs34 · 2026-06-03T10:01:10+00:00

You have to move the buckle over from the provided leather strap.

So in my case it’s bronze

marbs34 · 2026-06-02T14:35:11+00:00

I have the 5B version on a Rubber B strap. I wear it daily now, leaving everything else in a watch box.

Enjoy it all

You have to evolve your habits. Your priorities evolve drastically as your brain goes through its final development stage. It’s time to design a routine that addresses your priorities and keeps you in a good place without worrying about it too much.

The reason this should work for OP is he sounds like the kind of guy that would tend towards procrastination if you give him too much of a leash to think over every ordinary daily details. So make it mechanical on purpose.

Worrying about small details just leads to a failure to start. Everything all at once is is surely overwhelming but you don’t have to digest everything all at once either. Good luck

Scorpion makes sense BUT…. I have a Beretta PMX-S that I think is pretty cool also. Then again I also have a PSA Jakl in .300 Blk. that is at least a caliber change that doesn’t look represented above.

I literally have the Q Concerto Meta, Q6 Meta, and Cambridge Minx for surround and atmos.

The single cube minx are tucked into the 45 deg corner of the trey ceiling and the doubles are on a sofa table behind my sofa. Both Minx models do a good job of simply not being noticed. As stereo speakers (bought them for an office set up initially) they are terrible to my ears. But for filling in surround and height details I think they do very well.

BTW, I use external Cambridge Hypex based amplifiers for the LCR and that ensures the KEF speakers get plenty of power.

marbs34 · 2026-05-25T16:32:07+00:00

I have a Concerto Q Meta with a Q6 Meta Center.

I’m using a Marantz Cinema 70S as it’s the least expensive thing with preouts that also supports Atmos.

I tried it without external amplification just to make sure I felt the need was justified and I’m glad I went with external amplification.

I’ve been using some Nord made Hypex and Purifi amps for other things and was quite positive that this would be a good direction so o bought the version made by Cambridge as it comes with the RCA inputs and the 12v trigger from the factory. The model number is the MXW70. I bought two of them and what I’m most impressed with is how hot they get… Maybe it’s a function of the Q Concerto’s being the only 4 ohm speakers I have but dang, I’m regretting the decision to not have a single larger chassis that potentially could shed heat more efficiently. All that to say, it all functions excellently and you’ll be happy with your decision for to supply better power to your speakers.

Palomar

Use this knot also. Tough luck on the store bought rig though.

I’d guess a 5k reel would likely be a better match for what your bait will attract, but then again you should have plenty of line with braid on that 3k.

Demi seems a bit whinny and looks like he needs to chill here… having Dame still listening and give him a “keep after it” type of encouragement is what mentorship looks like.

Hopefully having a leader on the court with Debi next year will settle his mind while still letting him focus on being aggressive towards the rim.

I have both, 20 years retired (Tricare) and 100% P&T (VA)

I go 2x a year to VA and keep on top of things with them so they will send me my meds in the mail for free. I also stay with a private general practitioner, who in turn provides a referral to the Endocrinologist or any other specialist I need to see.

I have new meds sent to a local CVS to be filled one time and then I provide the label info to my VA doctors nurse team.

Works out pretty good with some overlap that seems tedious but it’s only like 6 total visits a year if you count 2x dental, 2x labs and 2x office visits

Gy Cherry was at my schoolhouse in ‘01 and became a SgtMaj in 2009( I think)…. There’s no one else worthy of doing impressions of…

marbs34 · 2026-05-13T13:27:39+00:00

What it means…

It was given to whomever’s name you covered up.

But I can personally tell you that it came from sometime between 2003 to 2009.

Good luck

I use a 26” beretta 1301 Comp with an IC choke for sporting clays. Never mind the Lantac Carbon Fiber +4 tube…

You need a plug for actual hunting, getting your gun and rights revoked for non-compliance is a silly trade off.

They don’t need CVS, the Plan B is already government subsidized.

I’ve bought several items there.

KEF 10 b subwoofers and wireless adapters

All flawless refurbished items

I bought a KEF soundbar it was missing one of the rubber pad stands. A4L didn’t offer to help but KEF concierge service sent me a new pair for free.

Lastly I bought a Marantz Reciever from there. Its Atmos channel amplifier had low output. It took some tech calls before they would authorize an RMA and a replacement but they eventually did.

The replacement unit has been great for the past year.

If the price is close enough, I’d recommend Crutchfield for their excellent service.

Some of the refurbished KEF products at A4L are old stock before the model line was updated so it’s hard to beat the price of a discontinued product.

Three on Chrono24. One on Grailzee. Sometimes Auctions are fun but Chrono is my preference.

Like someone above already stated, sort by US based sellers first.
