Probably just as well. New Zealand has some of the strictest immigration laws in the world.

I remember a rookie Canal lobster fisherman who had his traps tied off with yellow poly rope. Never understood why every time he pulled them, his bait was gone, but there never were any lobsters. :bl:

Putin isn't Gorbachev or Khrushchev, who'll go quietly to their dacha and write their memoirs. You can't let him stay alive if he's removed from power.

As it turns out, Ullmark had an injury that affected his movement in the crease. Raises the question of why Montgomery didn't sit him for Game 5, when they were up 3-1. Or pull him after he let in 4...

As long as your e-bike is pedal assist, and doesn't have the motor operated by a throttle, you should be OK on bike paths. Hell, in my hard core Spandex days, I could top 25 mph on my road bike.
