CSIRO researchers have paid a backhanded compliment to US pop singer and actress Beyonce – naming a rare horse fly after her in honour of its bootylicious golden behind.
They have only a mild venom and are not considered a threat to humans. However, their ability to consume plankton and the eggs and larvae of important fish species is cause for concern. Each jellyfish can filter as much as 13,200 gallons of sea water per day. While doing that, it ingests the plankton that native species need.
Since at least 2000, Phyllorhiza punctata has been found in large numbers in Gulf of Mexico. While it is not known how it was introduced to the region, it has been theorized that budding polyps may have attached themselves to ships, or gotten carried in a ship’s ballast tank which was subsequently dumped in the Gulf. As an invasive species, it has become a threat to several species of shrimp. In Gulf waters, the medusae grow to unusually large size, upward of 60cm across.
What’s a bushka? Just curious because my friends mom calls me her little babushka ??? Sounds similar & I could be way off since idk what it is but she says it to her daughter too so it has to be all good.
The more certain u feel of ur rational conclusion the more certain u are to be wrong. Ur brain being an instrument of distortion, the more active the brain the greater the distortion.- rand

What an ugly shot. But if t falls, you won’t hear me complaining.
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
Was that Leonard?!
Trey Felder - January 13, 2012
when blair cut the middle, the defense has to sag, which leaves open the 3 ball
bones - January 13, 2012
sean elliot agrees with you
Bushka - January 13, 2012
What’s a bushka? Just curious because my friends mom calls me her little babushka ??? Sounds similar & I could be way off since idk what it is but she says it to her daughter too so it has to be all good.

The Corner Three was one of Master Bowen’s final teachings.

KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
I literally agree.

I really can’t understand why we are ahead. We should’ve been down at least 10 at halftime.

spursfan87 - January 13, 2012
Kawhi shows why he’s every bit as great a move as Tiago and Green
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
He’s got some serious potential.
CapHill - January 13, 2012
He could become Gerald Wallace 2.0. I’d settle for just a Gerald Wallace clone.
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
Most definitely yes.
CapHill - January 13, 2012
That would be great!

especially now that he is starting

I could see Leonard getting serious consideration by year’s end

If they keep this up we might not see Timmy and Tony anymore.

You let LD spam you with Korean comics.

I’m OK with that. If it’s just for this game.

You gotta hand it to RC Buford. We improved from George Hill, that’s for sure
Josh Guyer (completely deck) - January 13, 2012
I do miss Cubits, but it was the right move.
CapHill - January 13, 2012
I would have missed him more if he was the backup 2, instead of the backup 1. Was not right for the team

Tell that to Manuwar. He doesn’t believe Kawhi > George.

J.R. Wilco - January 13, 2012
Up next: Malcolm in the Middle!

Great overall game for him.

J.R. Wilco - January 13, 2012
+ 29 now
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
Timmie -3
hurts2bgood - January 13, 2012
Never understood those things!
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012
The net number of points while the player is on the court. If you enter the game, make a bucket and then leave. You are a + 2.
If you come into the game and your opposition scores 10 straight points, you’re a -10.
J.R. Wilco - January 13, 2012
Thomas Board!
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012
&erson
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
nice rebound by Thomas, he already looking better than Ike did
spursfan87 - January 13, 2012
old man Ike
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
another great decision
hurts2bgood - January 13, 2012
nice pass cujo
sleep research facility - January 13, 2012
Joseph showing some (garbage time) court vision.
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
Chris Johnson back in for Portland
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012

Bushka - January 13, 2012
SPURS WIN

GAME!
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012
DIAL 1800-SPURS-WIN
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
I doubt 1800 works
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
unless we’re referring to how old Pop is after that first quarter
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
WOOO HOOO!
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
winner winner chicken dinner!
sleep research facility - January 13, 2012
99-83, Spurs win!
day_late_friend - January 13, 2012
Why cant we play like this on the road?
spursfan87 - January 13, 2012
We’re saving all our road wins for the RRT.
CapHill - January 13, 2012
Yes! It all makes sense now!
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
Agree with that
TX2NC - January 13, 2012 via Android app
Yeah
Spurlady - January 13, 2012
Neal’s shot was short all game long. Maybe he’s tired
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
that band-aid changes the trajectory of his shot
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
weighs him down
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012
Well Portland has been crowned best team in the west so this was a great win
hurts2bgood - January 13, 2012
beater than OKC?
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012
much beater
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
Pretty sure OKC is the one that got crowned.
Tim C. - January 13, 2012
Well Spurs will always be best to me
hurts2bgood - January 13, 2012
The Thunder are who we thought they were. Now if you wanna crown em, then crown their ass
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
They were crowned for one night, after defeating the Lakers. The following night, they got blown up by the Suns and OKC gets the title back.
day_late_friend - January 13, 2012
My MVP for the game: Kurt Thomas because I miss him so much
Spurs MVP for me is Kawhi Leonard. He was possessed by Bowen tonight.
KA1Z3R - January 13, 2012
go CLE!
TDzilla! - January 13, 2012
KoMe goin for another 40
SanAntonioGiant - January 13, 2012

CapHill - January 13, 2012
I’m already watching it. It should be good.
Edg5 - January 13, 2012
I think it’s spelled Maiden.
J.R. Wilco - January 13, 2012
