Its all gone mad. Avs swept and Hurricanes and Sabres both playing well. I'm not even going to try and predict where the Stanley Cup will end up this year.

There's some high scoring games going on in the playoffs these days: Colorado 5, Dallas 4. Montreal 6, Carolina 5, and Buffalo 8, Philadalphia 2 :eek: Makes a nice change from previous years with teams playing trap defence and grinding out a 1-0 win in overtime. If nothing else, its great...

We tend to get a live game shown here in England once a week. Due to the time difference we only really get the Eastern Conference, and the odd game with Detroit, Colorado or Dallas. That still means means a 1 o'clock in the morning start. I often listened to Canucks games radio broadcasts live...

Vancouver fell away badly after the Olympic break. It seemed only the Sedin / Sedin / Carter line were doing anything. Big under-achievers this year as I think it has been their best team line-up since 1994? against Messier's Rangers. It'll be interesting to see how the Rangers respond to...

Nice pics Adarsh. Somewhere, I have a similar picture of The Crookedest Street in San Francisco. Obviously it has me in it and not you. That would just be too weird!

My interest is somewhat limited now, being a Canucks fan, but I will certainly be keeping up with the playoffs. There are some good matchups this year. Colorado / Dallas is probably my "one to watch". Detroit will be hard to beat as usual, and I've been quite impressed with the Carolina...

Couldn't agree more, Phil. Its bad for the players and fans and its the worst I've ever seen it. In one game the comentators were highlighting the amount of finger marks being left when the player bridges or slides his hand to form the bridge. Its as though there is a lot of moisture in the...

Cracking match that one. I thought Bond held his nerve very well. Steve Davis is going to struggle to beat Shaun Murphy, and I'm impressed with the Aussie, Robertson at the moment. 9-5 up against Steven Lee is good going so far. Looking forward to Ronnie's 2nd round match. He looked in a...

The example they give, i.e. the one you have quoted there, is for conflict-serializable, and not for conflict-equivalence, which is the rule you have quoted.

Databases aren't my forte, but I'll give it a go. Conflict equivalence I can't really explain any better than the Wikipedia states.Let me know if you are still stuck on this one. Conflict-serializable is to do with the order that the transactions are carried out. Bear in mind that a value...

I don't think Andrew's idea would be workable. The main problem is the quantity of games played, the conditions they are played in, and the travelling time in-between. If you bowl 10 overs in 45 degree heat and 95% humidity, how does that equate to sitting in the dressing room watching your...

Good answers, Gentlemen!

We seem to have lost the colours for the different member levels in the "who's online" bit; although I still appear as orange to me.
