I WAS RUNNING behind getting a Father's Day gift for my beleaguered dad - beleaguered because he now realizes his three children have reached their full potential and we're not talking presidential material here - so I figured I'd save time by buying something online.
Alas, when I went to the famed World Wide Web, I was stunned to see that 16 percent of all available online items were Pete Rose-branded merchandise.
Pete Rose collectibles, Pete Rose posters, Pete Rose autographs, Pete Rose memorabilia - everything but Pete Rose genitalia was available.
In fact, in 2009 - the most recent year for which figures are available - Pete Rose had a larger GNP than Puerto Rico.
Out of baseball involuntarily for 23 years now, Rose has maintained an income the old-fashioned way - by selling his name $39.99 at a time.
Actually, other than, say, the unsigned Pete Rose Montreal Expos Bobble Head ($8.99), most Pete Rose paraphernalia is going to cost you a whole lot more.
(By the way, in addition to his online retail onslaught, the all-time hits leader is also doing a 90-minute, one-man stage show billed as "An Evening With Pete Rose," in which he tells stories, takes questions from the audience and reminisces. Sort of Garrison Keillor, with a bookie.)
From Charlie Hustle to Charlie Hustler: An American Success Story.
Autographed Pete Rose bat, $221.99.
Autographed Pete Rose baseball with "Big Red Machine" inscription, $107.25.
Autographed Pete Rose throwback jersey with "4256," $176.12.
Autographed ticket from Pete Rose 4,192-hit game, $188.99.
Autographed Pete Rose Cincinnati Enquirer 4,192 front page, $149.99.
(Forget the mind-boggling glut of Pete Rose-autographed merchandise. Here's the more mind-boggling reality: Rose had to autograph all this stuff. I mean, at this very moment, if he's not snacking, sleeping or showering, I assume he must be signing something. If Rose had been born before John Hancock, the expression would be, "Put your Charlie Hustle here.")
Unquestionably, the most intriguing Pete Rose commodity is the signed baseball with the inscription, "I'm Sorry I Bet On Baseball," available on various sites from $144.99 to $265.86. But let's be blunt here: Rose is not sorry he bet on baseball; he's sorry betting on baseball got him banned from the game, and I guarantee you he's even more sorry he lost when he bet on baseball.

Finally, a Cuban-American who can replace our tattered Scarface posters. Star of the film Ghost Rider, Eva Mendes is beautiful enough to steal our hearts and tough enough to kick our asses. And if she did, we'd like it.You grew up in Silver Lake, a neighborhood in Los Angeles. Do all the girls from L.A. want to be actresses?It's strange growing up in a city where everyone is an "aspiring blank"—writer, singer, actor. I didn't want to be that. I wanted to go into art history. Acting fell into my lap when a neighbor took pictures of me and showed them to an agent. Then I found an acting coach and worked my butt off. I did my share of bad jobs. And bad performances. I'm no Meryl Streep now, but I was awful when I started.We thought you rocked in Children of the Corn V…I was awful in Children. It was my first movie, and I hadn't acted since being the fairy godmother in fourth grade. I'm not fishing for a compliment, but C5, as I call it, was a disaster.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: This replacement part works perfectly like the psp factory brings very responsive feel very well and looks great my psp is like new looks the same as the original part works perfectly responds well in all games
Cons: no installation instructions but not hard to replace and you can also look for a internet totorial to be completely sure that this set correctly
Other: great product works perfect perfect finish'm very happy with the purchase
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: looks exactly the same as the original one feels good when used replaced easily with the help of another item on deal extreme
Cons: not really much cons maybe its scary to dismantle your device for the first time, but all went well in the end could be cheaper i suppose? do not really have much complains
Other: buy it if you need it or if yours spoilt like mine or maybe you have nothing better to do than to buy it and change the colour scheme of your device
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: It feels just like the original.
Great Price.
Smoothness is like the original.
Cons: It does not come with the rubber connector that goes over the 4 gold things. So you have to put the rubber connector from your old one and put it on your new one. Thats the only thing
Other: You should buy this if your psp analog stick is broken. Great price, replacing the nub on the PSP-2000 is a bit more difficult than it is on the PSP-1000. But trust me this will do the trick when your old one is busted.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: this is a psp slim/2000 black analog stick. it came ina little bag and with good built quality. this item is a lifesaver if your pSp analog stick broke or stopped working for any reason.
Cons: this anslog stick Could have been enhanced by making the material better
Other: overall it works perfectly and its very easy to install Also its the Cheapest analog stick youll find onliNe
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: The good thing about these is that they are cheap. It works perfectly, and it is perfect fitting the PSP. I'm assuming the the plastic is also improved because it didnt break screwing it in.
Cons: The bad thing about this is that it feels nothing like the original. It's missing that SMOOTHNESS that the original has. It works great and fits perfectly, but if you are playing some exciting games you might wanna add some oil to it. The board is also of some of a low-end quality but it makes no difference.
Other: Buy it if yours is broken cause you won't find cheaper and better.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: + Fits perfectly inside the PSP.
+ Feels like an original analogue stick.
+ Build quality is not bad, but could be improved.
+ Works as original analogue stick.
+ Cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap.
+ Came fast
Cons: - No instructions. ( i just searched for instructions)
- No packaging at all (just warped in bubble rap)
- Difficult to install.
- Some times it goes crazy and moves without even touching it (rarely).
- One part feels very very very cheap.
Other: Buy it if your PSP has broken analogue.
You wont find cheaper anywhere.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Brings back life to your PSP when for some reason the nub isn't working anymore.
Far cheaper than having your PSP repaired by Sony.
Cons: No cons. Cost is good, built quality is good so what can be said against it?
Other: Sadly, replacing the nub on the PSP-2000 is a bit more difficult than it is on the PSP-1000. But it's worth the work. When reassembling, make sure there's no dust or fingerprints on the screen!

theres some serious hating going on in this thread. almost none of these guys came to iowa state to play for rhoads, or anyone on this staff.
this thread wasn't intended for hate. i was stating how badly each one will be missed. there are a few posters with unsavory comments, but you will have that in any thread on here. focus on the good, block the bad.
Simply put: LJ's athletic ability will be missed. His lack of control of emotions will not. How that turned into "hate" is beyond me.

Don't understand why we have posters on here that are so critical of some our players. They have given so much more than most of the posters that criticize them. I am sure they would just as soon never make a mistake. Most of these guys have given all they have for Iowa State for the last 5 years. I think all of the seniors will be missed. Thank you for all that you have given - there are some of us that appreciate all of the time and effort you have put into making Iowa Staters so Proud of you and Iowa State football.
It will suck to see all of these guys.. but I actually think we have a lot of talent waiting in the wings. Some might not be the same caliber, but they should actually fit our schemes better. I'm excited to see Lynn and Richardson step up at CB though. Guys like Irving among others at DE. Pompey at DT. We have some pretty interesting Wr prospects too. I'm excited for next year for sure.
Follow this guy on Twitter @Daddy_Rusty
I'll miss these guys more than some of the other posters on this board. LJ and Benton have been great off-the-field representatives of ISU even if they let their emotions get away from them on the field. The best part is that at every single one of these positions, we've seen the future creep in and get some PT when it matters, and the future looks as capable as ever.
In 1984, I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.
I'm going to miss these guys because they've been great Cyclones and have gone through a bunch with this program, both high and low. These are the guys that had to step up when the program changed hands, and they've done it with grace and honor. I wish them all well into the future. On the other hand, though, I'm very excited to see what the future holds. The only guy on the team whose lack of presence will be felt is Leonard Johnson. Everywhere else, there are guys who are going to be ready to step up and start for the team. Last year, we weren't sure what we were going to do without Arnaud, Robinson, Franklin, Williams, Lamaak, Sims, O'Connell, etc., and look where we are now. The future is bright. So while we celebrate the accomplishments of the Seniors, I'm more than excited to see what happens after these guys head out of town.

I'll miss them in this order. LJ, KO, Money, Lattimer, and Hicks. The rest I will miss, but they are replaceable.

We've kind of developed a tradition of having one great cornerback every year this past decade. I'm kind of curious who the next guy that fills that role is going to be. 01-04 Hobbs 04-06 DeAndre Jackson 07 Bell? (doesn't really apply to this year) 08-11 LJ
I noticed that Jeff Woody states on his twitter account that he's a senior. Does anyone know what his plans are for next season? https://twitter.com/#!/jwoody32
almost positive woody is a rs soph
Woody's been at ISU for three years now. He has two more years of eligibility. My guess is that he came into college w/HS credits, will graduate this spring, and start his Master's next fall, using his last 2 years of eligibility/scholarships (I assume he's on scholarship now; no way he's still a walk-on) to complete that program.

Fertility tourism is booming. It's not just the Italian maverick doctor in Rome who offers to bypass the regulations of the UK's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) and help women in their fifties and sixties to become mothers: Spain is now the destination of choice for childless couples frustrated by the prospect of a long wait in the UK for the precious donor eggs and sperm, which are in short supply.

Couples seeking fertility treatment abroad should carefully consider the risks and complications involved, the head of the UK fertility watchdog said yesterday.
Shortages in egg and sperm donations exacerbated by new laws removing the right to anonymity for donors in Britain have led to a substantial increase in "fertility tourism".

With the swimming depths of the stone's color that brings the soul to light up the eyes with wonder, this princess cut blue topaz cubic zirconia pendant will make you feel a little more at peace with yourself as its color reminds you of an ocean's depths.

The father in the OP story seems to have confused patience for a learner with excusing the child from needing to learn at all.
On the other hand, the columnist seems to object to the very concept of learning, at least learning how to behave around other people.

iDock Phone speaker
I'm so glad I came across the iDock Phone and Speaker, the amount of time I have spent with a mobile phone to my head for work was too much. Having my phone fit in the cradle, is a joy and it's a novelty to use the hand set, which is a cool sleek design. Using the speaker phone side of things it amplifies the sound which is a plus for me as well. If you want something a little different sat on you desk this would be the one to go for.

A grass that was part of the original Midwestern tallgrass prairie, switch grass (Panicum virgatum) is also lovely in the garden. In July and August, pink-tinged flower panicles rise above the foliage to create a soft, feathery mist. Teardrop-shaped seeds follow in the fall and provide food for songbirds. Its autumn foliage turns soft yellow. Use switch grass as a single vertical accent in a perennial garden or massed in a wildflower or naturalistic garden. In a prairie setting, it's a favored nesting site for pheasants, quail, and grouse.
Plant Facts Common name: Switch grass, prairie switch grass, water panicum Botanical name: Panicum virgatum Plant type: Clump-forming, warm-season, perennial grass Height: 3 to 6 feet Zones: 5 to 9 Family: Poaceae (grass family) Growing conditions

Remember Flag Day, June 14

Many thanks to all who attended the Memorial Day services. We had 118 people at Blue Mountain and a lovely rendition of "Taps" on the saxophone. Thanks also to the Evanses, Langstons, Humphreys, Ann, Sandy, Pat and Tom, and Kelly for their help putting out the flags on Sunday. Hopefully the children now understand more about why we honor veterans. The NJROTC cadets were there all weekend to help the families and show respect for the service of the veterans who have passed on.
The Port Angeles High School NJROTC hosts its awards ceremony at 11 a.m. Saturday, June 12, in the main gymnasium. I have the honor of presenting the CDR Lorri Gilchrist Medal for Community Service, the Military Officer Association medals for leadership and the DAR medal. Please come and show your support for the program and the cadets' achievements.
The American Legion and the MOAA have signed up to sponsor a month of hot dogs for the SeaTac USO. This costs $60. Jerry takes the 40 pounds of hot dogs and the buns over. If you would like to sponsor a month, e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Rebellion Dogs Quilt Guild is looking for donations to keep their program of gratitude quilts for local in-need veterans progressing. They need irons, ironing boards, fabric, backing, low loft batting, embroidery floss, pearl cotton and people who are willing to help - all skill levels are welcome. For more information, call JoAnn Vikery at 461-0506.
A proclamation for "Korean War Remembrance Week" will be read at local city council meetings the week of June 21 and at the county commissioners' meeting on June 25. Please attend one of these meetings and show your support for the Korean War veterans.
June 14 is Flag Day. The American Legion will be holding a flag retirement ceremony at the post on Prairie Street at 2 p.m. All are welcome to attend. This would be a great time to bring unserviceable flags for proper disposal. Please do not fly tattered, faded or defaced flags.
There are many events in June that commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Korean War. The Korean Consulate General of Seattle, Yeoghan Choi, announced that the Korean War Veterans League will hold an observance on June 26 in Olympia. There also are services in Wilsonville, Ore. The South Korean government is sending a cruiser to Vancouver, British Columbia, in July. If you are interested in attending any of these events, e-mail Jerry Rettela at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Since July 4 will be before my next column, I would like to invite you all to come to the parade in Port Angeles. The DAR, Marine Corps League, Korean War Veterans and other service groups will be marching. A great prelude to the fireworks! I will be in my Betsy Ross outfit carrying the DAR flag, so please wave to me!

Robbie LeValley, Delta County administrator, gave an update on the Gunnison sage-grouse to the Crawford board of trustees at their work session on March 20.
"The Fish and Wildlife Service extended this initial comment period to April 2.
The comment period is on the threatened and endangered proposal," LeValley said.
The Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed that the Gunnison sage-grouse be listed as endangered, which is the highest level of protection under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
"The definition of endangered is that it is on the brink of extinction. Now we can show data, science, history, everything — that 87 percent of the population of the Gunnison sage-grouse lives in the Gunnison Basin, and that population is on the increase," LeValley said.
The six satellite populations including the Crawford population have fluctuated, she said, but they have not done as well as the Gunnison population. That is part of the reasoning for seeking the endangered status.
But to counter the Fish and Wildlife Service position, LeValley said there has been much done to help the Gunnison sage-grouse in this area. That includes the ongoing work of the Gunnison sage-grouse Working Group, and money invested in easements and agreements. "There's been a tremendous amount of work done for the Gunnison sage-grouse in the Crawford area," LeValley said.
On March 20, a Memorandum of Understanding between Delta and Gunnison county governments was discussed to continue the work. Colorado Parks and Wildlife has contributed over $70 million since work began to save the Gunnison sage-grouse. Gunnison County has invested over $5 million. Habitat has been improved. The Gunnison sage-grouse Working Group in Crawford began in 1995.
LeValley asked the Town of Crawford to write a letter to U.S. Fish and Wildlife. Delta County does not want the Gunnison sage-grouse listed as endangered nor as threatened. The county's position is that those listings are not warranted, and that the working groups should be continued. LeValley stressed that the town would have to decide what its position is, but the county could help with data or a draft letter.
There is a second comment period in June. The county will provide data on the critical habitat of the Gunnison sage-grouse to the town and request a second letter.
"Have they taken into account that coyotes like them too?" asked Mayor Susie Steckel.
"I think we've done a lot to protect them, and I think we ought to spend our money elsewhere," trustee Hetty Todd said.
Trustee James Sorensen asked what the other impacts would be other than the cost involved. Robbie LeValley explained that if a property is approved for an NRCS project, for example, then the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would have to be consulted before there would be a release of federal dollars. Fish and Wildlife would only be consulted if federal dollars are involved. They would have no other control over private land.
Jackie Savage, town clerk, said she would write a letter.

Photo: Polka Dot/Thinkstock Do your kids keep you up half the night? Is getting enough sleep—for you and them—an elusive dream? Pediatrician Jennifer Trachtenberg, MD, RealAge's children's health expert, shares her surefire sleep tips to keep the whole family well rested.
Is this you? The kids are finally in bed, after a few false starts. All you can think of is putting your feet up, pouring a glass of wine and clicking on a silly sitcom. Then a child appears out of nowhere, mumbling, "Mom, I can't sleep." Your brain does a silent scream, but then you get up and patiently say, "C'mon, little one, back to bed."
Or is this you? After a long day of trying to be your mommy best, do you fall into bed in a heap of exhaustion, only to be woken in the middle of the night by a small voice whispering in your ear, "I'm scared, Mommy." Do you pull back the covers, scoot over and make room, or do you drag yourself out of your bed and lead your child back to his bed? I know sleep issues can be huge for you and your children. I have three kids—I've been there! Sleep troubles usually crop up at around 5 months and smooth out after age 4 or so. But those 3 or 4 years in between can be exhausting, and they make squeezing your child into bed with you at 3 a.m. totally tempting. Try not to. It can almost instantly turn into a bad habit that's hard to break. Kids (like adults!) need to learn how to self-sooth and calm themselves down after a long day. An "everyone into the king-sized bed" ritual not only keeps children from learning this vital go-to-sleep skill, but it also eliminates what is often the last shred of privacy you and your husband have. I've had bleary-eyed moms and dads in my office virtually weeping about their child's problems with sleep. They weren't just crying for their kids. A child who doesn't sleep can wreak havoc on the entire household, to say nothing about interfering with his growth and development. 4 ways to foster healthy sleep habits in your children Advertisement

A nine-week-old puppy was stolen Wednesday morning at a Longview pet store, and it was all caught on surveillance tape, obtained exclusively by KLTV.
Spencer, a baby shih-tzu, was stolen just after 10 a.m. from Wet Pets 'N Critters on Loop 281 across from the Longview Mall.
Owner Laura Borens says she's hoping the public can help find her stolen puppy.
On the surveillance tape, a male customer walks towards the dog pen, looks around, then picks up Spencer.
After holding him for a few seconds, the customer then stuffs the puppy into his jacket and zips it up.
Borens said her employees realized almost immediately that the nine-week-old puppy was missing.
"We looked at the footage and sure enough, we watched the man come in and stuff the little dog inside of his coat," Borens said. "He just walked around casually, then walked behind my employee and just made his way out the door with him."
"I went around the store multiple times, making sure somebody didn't let him out," said store employee Megan Kennedy. "I thought maybe he was on the ground, or somebody was carrying him around the store. "It was very tough to know that he was gone."
After running the pet store for nearly 25 years, Borens still can't believe it happened.
"I just don't understand people," Borens said. "I don't understand why they would do such a thing."
"I was heartbroken," Kennedy said. "That is just a cruel thing to do, to steal a dog. I just can't believe it."
Borens says she is confident the thief will not get away with it.
"We have lots of friends who care about our store and we care about our puppies and they will help us find him," she said.
If you recognize this man, please contact Longview police at (903) 231-1199.

Ever wanted to manage your RubyGem in a sane way without having to resort to external dependencies like Jeweler or Hoe? Ever thought that Rake and a hand crafted gemspec should be enough to deal with these problems? If so, then RakeGem is here to make your life awesome!
RakeGem is not a library. It is just a few simple file templates that you can copy into your project and easily customize to match your specific needs. It ships with a few Rake tasks to help you keep your gemspec up-to-date, build a gem, and release your library and gem to the world.
RakeGem assumes you are using Git. This makes the Rake tasks easy to write. If you are using something else, you should be able to get RakeGem up and running with your system without too much editing.
The RakeGem tasks were inspired by the Sinatra project.
Take a look at Rakefile
and NAME.gemspec
. For new projects, you can start
with these files and edit a few lines to make them fit into your library. If
you have an existing project, you'll probably want to take the RakeGem
versions and copy any custom stuff from your existing Rakefile and gemspec
into them. As long as you're careful, the rake tasks should keep working.
RakeGem makes a few assumptions. You will either need to satisfy these assumptions or modify the rake tasks to work with your setup.
You should have a file named lib/NAME.rb
(where NAME is the name of your
library) that contains a version line. It should look something like this:
module NAME
It is important that you use the constant VERSION
and that it appear on a
line by itself.
In order to make a new release, you'll want to update the version. With
RakeGem, you only need to do that in the lib/NAME.rb
file. Everything else
will use this find the canonical version of the library.
RakeGem provides three rake tasks:
rake gemspec
will update your gemspec with the latest version (taken from
the lib/NAME.rb
file) and file list (as reported by git ls-files
rake build
will update your gemspec, build your gemspec into a gem, and
place it in the pkg
rake release
will update your gemspec, build your gem, make a commit with
the message Release 0.1.0
(with the correct version, obviously), tag the
commit with v0.1.0
(again with the correct version), and push the master
branch and new tag to origin
Keep in mind that these are just simple Rake tasks and you can edit them however you please. Don't want to auto-commit or auto-push? Just delete those lines. You can bend RakeGem to your own needs. That's the whole point!

Backpack - Tan (dark bley US print)
A Backpack is, in its simplest form, a fabric sack carried on the back; secured with types of straps. Backpacks are often preferred to handbags for hauling larger loads, because of the increased capacity to carry heavy weights for long periods of time. In ancient times, the Backpack was used as a means to carry the hunter's larger game and other types of prey as a way of easier transport. Modern uses include stowing tactical gear, food and camping equipment. Two standard-size clips allow your fig to carry all sorts of compatible accessories. Backpack fits most standard minifig torsos & 1x1 connection points.
Our price: $1.55
Beret - Tan (dark tan badge print)
A Beret is a soft round cap often worn by military forces, police units or the sensibly chic. Berets were originally worn by the Northern Basque peasants in Southern France and first used as a military headdress by the French Chasseurs alps in in the early 1880s. When properly worn the Beret should fit snugly around the head and is commonly pushed to one side. Make a fasion statement with your jet set Parisian or give your impressionist artist some style. Also a great accessory for myth-bustin' geniuses, comedians, musicians and beatniks. Beret fits most standard minifig heads.
Our price: $1.50
Cow - Tan (Jersey)
Jersey cows are a small breed of dairy cattle. They were originally bred in the Channel Island of Jersey. This breed is popular for the high butterfat content of its milk. The Jersey cow became a media icon as "Elsie the Cow", the official mascot for Borden Inc. No farm should be without a few of these bovines strolling about the barnyard or grazing along the countryside. The BrickForge Jersey Cow features a 2-stud wide design, articulated head, 1x2 cut-out and custom screen print design reminiscent of the traditional Horse piece. Add an Udder for a splash of realism or a set of Horns to turn Bessie into Brutus. Cow comes preassembled, molded in Tan ABS plastic.

Double Plume - Tan
Often secured atop a gentleman's hat or uniform headdress the plume signified a token of honor or achievement. Plumes were also placed atop military helmets to denote the rank of the wearer. Such ornaments were mainly plucked from prominent or rare species of bird. The classic Double Plume design features opposite, flowing feathers and a diameter that allows for a standard minifig grip. Peg is designed to fit most traditional plume sockets including our own Dwarf Helmet , Elven Helmet, Great Helm, & Hoplite Helmet.
Our price: $0.10
Drumsticks - Tan (pair)
Originating as simple beaters used for cultural, ritual and entertainment purposes, the modern Drumstick dates back to the use of percussion instruments that were used to provide rhythm to musical performances during the Middle Ages. The simple shape consists of a shaft, shoulder and tip - or bead. Players use two sticks at a time to pound the drum set. No drummer should be without a set of these to toss into the crowd at the end of a show. Use for marching bands, disheartening war percussion or as a simple decorative element in your custom creations. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.50
Dwarf Beard - Tan
Not really known for their stylish hair-dos (probably because they always wear a helmet) Dwarf Beards are a sign of pride and recognition. Many believe that the source of the dwarf's strength and innovation comes from their beard and that washing them diminishes that power, therefore many have never washed their beards in their lives. There�s also that old dwarven insult to take into consideration, �I defecate upon thy beard!� which many dwarves have been known to make good on. The Dwarf Beard fits most standard minifig head/torso combinations.
Our price: $1.00
Elven Blade - Tan
For the most skillful fighters, the Elven Blade is light and sharp, and transforms any ordinary warrior on the battlefield into a force to be reckoned with. Unlike other weapons such as spear or axe, a these blades can't simply be assembled, it has to be forged and carefully tempered which requires dedicated labor and skill. The final purpose of each is to create a strong, light blade capable of holding a good edge. Elven Blade fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Elven Spear - Tan
Perhaps the most ancient of arms, the spear was originally used for hunting and fishing prior to its use as a fairly versatile military weapon. The Elven Spear is a long-shafted weapon designed principally for thrusting, although many spears were also capable of slashing blows. A beautiful piece of craftsmanship this classic design has been made to create a nicely formed weapon - ideal for any of your custom characters. Elven Spear fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Falcata - Tan
The Falcata is a type of sword typical of Pre-Roman Hispania, similar to the Greek Kopis and developed from the Canaan/Egyptian Khopesh. Designed for delivering strong cleaving blows the Falcata has a one-edged blade that pitches forward towards the point, the edge being concave on the lower part and convex on top. Great for hoplites, gladiators or dual-wielding assassins! Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.05
Headlamp - Tan
A Headlamp is a flashlight worn on the head for hands-free operation in dark environments such as mines, underground caverns and smoke-filled rooms; which means your miner, spelunker and firefighter minifigs can concentrate on more important things while wearing this accessory. It's flexible design means it can fit over most minifig headgear such as helmets or hair. A standard 1x1 connection point lets you add our Lens Piece, Gemstone or other decorative piece. Inner dimensions are approximately 12.5mm in diameter.
Our soft ABS plastic contains an additive making it flexible - but not stretchable. Excess tugging and twisting may result in tearing. Pieces broken due to excessive play are not eligible for replacement.

Javelin - Tan
The Javelin is the name of a light spear designed primarily for casting as a ranged weapon. Cohorts of throwers were often employed in hit-and-run maneuvers to harass and taunt unprotected battalions, disrupting close formations.

Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Knights Shield - Tan
BrickForge's Knights Shield is in essence an elongated heater shield based on a late 12th century design when kite shields were becoming shorter and more triangular.

Knights Shield is smithed without a center boss and smooth surface so you can apply your own design using decals, paints or other preferred types of mediums. Flat inside consists of a centered, standard minifig grip.
Our price: $1.00
Mohawk - Tan
Made popular by the punk rockers of the 80's the Mohawk was worn by tribal peoples as far back as 2000 yrs ago and is named for the Native American people of the Mohawk nation. The Mohawk can be worn in several fashions and is considered to be quite the 'high maintenance' hairstyle - especially when hair dye is involved. Our Mohawk is indicative of the 'beaver' style maintains a low-profile appearance while still looking tough - a great piece if your minifig is looking to make a statement or intimidate fellow figs.

Grass and Shrubs not enough for your MOC? Brighten up your display with our colorful array of decorative Mushrooms. Give your gamer minifig a 1UP or provide cover for our little blue friends. An ample variety of colors and patterns allow you to dream up a range of medicinal or magical properties. The Mushroom is constructed to attach to most standard 1x1 connection points.

Our price: $0.50
Musket - Tan
A Musket is a muzzle-loaded, smooth bore long gun, fired from the shoulder. Muskets were designed for use by infantry, and soldiers armed with such had the designation musketman or musketeer. Replacing the infamous hand-cannon (arquebus), the Musket consisted of a lock, stock and barrel allowing easier wield, transport and improved accuracy. Despite its widespread use the Musket retained a long reload time - leading to continuous advancements in both the gun's design and tactical use until it was made obsolete by the more-advanced rifled musket. Features multiple grip points and familiar styling your minifig troops are sure to appreciate. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Neck Armor - Tan
Neck Armor, more commonly known as a gorget originally was a steel collar designed to protect the neck/throat. It was a feature of older types of armour and intended to protect against swords and other non-projectile weapons. Later, particularly from the 18th century onwards, the gorget became primarily ornamental, serving only as a symbolic accessory on military uniforms. The BrickForge Neck Armor was primarily made to allow for the use of Pauldrons but also allows the minifig head to sit down inside the actual piece to give the impression of additional armor.
Pauldrons sold separately.

Our price: $0.50
Nightstick - Tan
No law enforcment officer should be caught unawares without their handy Nightstick. From beat cops to prison guards this bludgeoning baton will bash in windows during a raid or beat back a senseless riot. Feeling extra creative? The Nightstick's traditional, yet simple design allows other components to connect so you can concoct your own custom club. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Officer Plume - Tan
The brightly dyed horsehair plumes attached to ancient helmets were mainly designed to make the warrior appear taller and more menacing.

Promote your Greek or Roman warrior up through the ranks using one of our colorful Officer Plumes. Engineered to fit both our Centurion Helmet & Hoplite Helmet, these plumes can also fit on most standard plume sockets.
Our price: $0.35
Pauldron - Tan
A Pauldron is a component of armor served to protect the shoulder, upper arm and neck regions against advancing blows. It can be made of metallic, leather or heavy fabric material. In modern times it has become more of an emblem to signify rank, allegiance, squadron or area of expertise. The low-profile, flexible design & details of the BrickForge Pauldron is suitable for any gladiator, band of mercenaries or battalion of space troopers bent on galactic conquest. Pauldron fits snugly between most standard minifig heads & torsos.
Our soft ABS plastic contains an additive making it flexible - but not stretchable. Excess tugging and twisting may result in tearing. Pieces broken due to excessive play are not eligible for replacement.

Microsoft sued over Bing name
There are those who believe that Microsoft came up with the name Bing for its refreshed search engine after staring at the word "Bingo" for several days and then removing the last letter.
However, a small entity in St. Louis has decided that the name Bing was, is and always should be, theirs.
According to Ars Technica, Bing Information Design! has designs on some compensation from Microsoft, as it has used the delightful term, followed by a slightly less delightful exclamation point, ala Yahoo, since 2000.

On staff since November 2011
I would like to recommend Dr Fahl whole-heartedly. Dr Fahl cared for our daughter for 4 years. He is incredibly perceptive and intelligent. Balance that with a sweet sensitivity and compassion, and he is the exactly the kind of doctor you want. He understood the concerns of a teenager with a bowel disorder, as well as, the worries of her parents. Our daughter has been in remission from Ulcerative Colitis for over 3 years now, thanks to Dr Fahl's care. You are very fortunate to have him, Seattle.
Dr. Fahl was amazing. I have never had a doctor care for me like Dr. Fahl did. I saw him at UNM and I had many complications with and after surgery. I was in the hospital weekly for 2 years straight and Dr. Fahl never missed one of those visits. I would call him on his cell when I was on my was to the ER and he was there waiting for me, and most of the visits started around midnight. So Dr. Fahl is an amazing doctor and person. You'll be luckey to have him help you or your child! Thank you Dr. Fahl.
Dr Fahl provided the most excellent care to my daughter while at UNM Children's Hospital. While my daughters case is rare and required allot of research, Dr Fahl always went the extra step to educate us on our daughter's condition and what care she needed. We truly miss Dr Fahl and appreciate that he is still making himself available to us. This shows that he truly does care about his patients.
Dr. Fahl is a wonderful educator and clearly dedicated to his patients. Working with him is always a pleasure.

Receiving a replacement iPad 4, Apple told me it will be a re-manufactued one.
Hello all,
Thanks for the great information here. I just want to hear other's experiences on replacement unit. I will be receiving a replacement iPad 4, due to display issue. The Apple support told me that the replacement unit will be a re-manufactured one but, not refurbished - not sure of the differences. My question is that is it normal, when getting an iPad replaced? So they never give out the new one as the replacement??? Mine is iPad 4 (Wi-Fi) and got it back in 11/2012. Regards. Last edited by go ipad; Feb 21, 2013 at 10:12 AM. |

Apple take all the returns and essentially I guess they do " Re Manufacture " them...faulty components are replaced, and it will be in a plain brown box...you can rest assured that it will be as good as a new one...look at it this way..in some respects your " new" iPad has been subjected to more scrutiny then many off the line units.
..That's All Folks

The difference is this:
Refurbished: Damaged/Returned unit is repaired with working parts, run through tests, and then packaged up to sell or use as a replacement for repairs. Remanufactured: Damaged/Returned unit is broken down into useful parts. Anything damaged is recycled. A new unit is built from the useful parts scavenged from these other units. In either case, the final unit is run through the manufacturing tests. When buying "new", usually only a random sample of each batch is run through manufacturing tests. From a customer perspective, there isn't much difference if the company does their job right between any of the three units. The desire to reduce e-waste is the whole reason why Apple doesn't just give new product out as replacement. Why ask Apple to spend all the effort to break down a perfectly good motherboard, display, or case into raw materials?

It's typical for the entire industry. If you have a new device you can return it and buy a new one. If it's not new (your case since you bought it back on 11/12) why would you expect a new device in return? Do you have any experience with Apple remans or refurbs?

Feb 21, 2013, 05:05 PM | #6 | |
Remanufactured is taking it apart, testing each piece separately and dumping any defective parts. The good ones are used to build replacements for service although many of them are actually new. They don't track which is which in terms of serials which is why the terms and conditions of service say new or like new in quality. Last edited by charlituna; Feb 21, 2013 at 05:13 PM. |

I can't recall a single time I received a remanufactured replacement from the Apple Store for an iPhone or iPad where the replacement wasn't better than the original. My first experience with this was with an iPhone 3G that would just randomly turn itself off. I didn't realize all the other stuff that was wrong with it until I got the replacement. Anyone who complains when Apple doesn't replace their device with a new device with the box still in its original factory shrink wrap doesn't realize they're better off with getting a remanufactured unit.

Shimano SH51 SPD Cleats $20.95
New cleats feel like new pedals.
These are the cleats that come with your Shimano SPD Pedals. The SH-51 Cleats are black and have four degrees of float for your feet. Compared to the SH-56 Multi-Release Cleats, these are much more secure and are generally preferred for the experienced rider. To get out of your pedal, you'll have to swing your heel out a bit more than the SH-56 Cleats. Please Note: These will not work with older PD-M858 pedals (for those you'll need SH-52 Cleats). On that same note, if you have an aftermarket SPD-style pedal that isn't a Shimano branded pedal, these cleats are most likely not compatible with your pedals even though they might look remarkably similar to a Shimano pedal.

Nice, very nice

Great cleat, reasonable weight, and, most importantly for me, long lasting. One pair of shoes I have these on have the cleats exposed to walking and after several years of wear and tear (7-10 thousand km's a year) they are still holding strong.

You can try screwing the cleat in to the other set of holes in the plate, otherwise Shimano makes replacement plates that can be ordered. Thanks,

Yes, those would work fine. Enjoy!
