I play a lot & my wife won a TF Aero in an outing. I use a Nike driver & was shocked how well the TF performed. It was consistently longer, and the factory shaft seems to work for me. I have no problem with this driver and look forward to outdriving my buddy with his R1 soon ...
Greg from Midlothian, TX | 8/8/2014 12:37 AM
I am not one for drivers but this one sucks. I know this after about 20 swings total the head flew off in the middle of a game this club sucks.
E from Warren, OH | 8/18/2013 10:01 PM
Had a Walter hagan driver and loved it. Was averaging about 270 yard drives. The Walter hagan had a defect and split open, so I took it back for another. They were discontinued so they swapped it for this top flight aero. I had the regular shaft and its definitely stiffer than some regulars I've had in the past. I spent a ton of time and money at the range and course trying to get my drives down with this, and at best my drives would be maybe 230. I highly recommend getting a better driver.
Brent H. from Grover, MO | 8/15/2013 1:02 AM
After 2 trips to the range that circular weight somehow got crushed in. Although I'm a beginner I don't usually top the ball or get too many divots so I really don't know how that happened. If you want a decent driver I would definitely look at spending a little more than the price listed for this club.

The aorta is the largest artery in the body. The abdominal part of the aorta is located below the diaphragm. It carries blood to the abdomen, pelvis, and legs. Sometimes, the walls of the aorta weaken and bulge in one area. This is called an abdominal
(AAA). When the aneurysm reaches a certain size, it may need to be repaired. Endovascular repair of an AAA (EVAR) is done from the inside of the artery. The doctor inserts a stent graft into the area to strengthen it.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
EVAR is now the preferred method to treat AAA. EVAR can result in less pain, shorter hospital stay, fewer complications, and faster recovery time compared to open surgery. However, closer follow-up over many years is needed.
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
Your risk of complications may also be increased if you have had:
You will lie on your back. You will receive medicine to ease pain and relax you. Once you are asleep and sedated, a breathing tube will be inserted into your throat and lungs. Sometimes, regional anesthesia will be used. A breathing tube will not be needed in this case.
The doctor will make small incisions in both sides of the groin. Catheters (thin tubes) will be inserted into the blood vessels and threaded up toward the aneurysm. Contrast dye will be injected through the catheters. The doctor will then guide a stent graft to the site. The graft will be placed into the weakened area and extended into both pelvic arteries. To guide each step, the doctor will use live x-ray images. Your vital signs will be monitored. Once the graft is in place, the doctor will remove the catheters. The incisions will be closed. Sterile bandages will be applied.
You will be taken to the intensive care unit (ICU). If you have a breathing tube, it will be removed. Your vital signs will be closely monitored.
About 2-3 hours
Anesthesia will prevent pain during the procedure. Your doctor will give you medicine to manage the pain during the recovery process. There is little discomfort from the groin incisions.
The usual length of stay is 1-2 days. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if needed.
At the hospital, you will:
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

This topic is a bit along the lines of the "Buddhism and science" thread, but I promise to keep it free of quantum mechanics. The field of research I'd like to direct your attention to is epigenetics, which is a relatively new branch of study in genetics. In a nutshell, epigenetics concerns itself with gene expression and the non-genetic aspects of phenotype development. Another way to put it is that epigenetics deals with heritable changes not based in the DNA. If this still sounds too abstract, think of it as the field that covers the gap between "nature and nurture". I think it is important for the public understanding of science, because the media and popular culture (for example the 1997 science fiction film "Gattaca") often give rise to the false idea that phenotypes -including human beings- are programmed from birth and entirely predetermined. If only we know how to deocde the genome, we could predict at which age we come down with what disease, for example.
Well, this idea turns out to be not only in discord with Buddhist philosophy, but also with present day science. According to the Buddhist understanding, we cannot change existing karma, but we can change the generation of new karma and we can influence the way in which existing karma comes to fruition. The research in epigenetics comes to a parallel conclusion: "In the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, genomic DNA is highly folded and compacted with histone and non-histone proteins into a dynamic polymer called chromatin. Gene expression, chromosome segregation, DNA replication, repair, and recombination all act, not on DNA alone, but on this chromatin template. The discovery that enzymes can (re)organise chromatin into accessible and inaccessible configurations revealed epigenetic mechanisms that considerably extend the information potential of the genetic code. Thus, one genome can generate many 'epigenomes', as the fertilised egg progresses through development and translates its information into a multitude of cell fates. [...] This suggests that "We are more than just the sum of our genes", and that biological complexity depends less on gene number, and more on how those genes are used (expressed), which is largely due to epigenetic mechanisms."
In simple terms: our fate is not (necessarily) encoded in our DNA.
There is a wonderful little documentary Nova Science Now that introduces epigentics in a very accessible way: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/sciencenow/3411/02.html

Friday, April 14, 2006, 09:50 AMLadies & Gentlemen,
Posted by Administrator
Posted by Administrator
It's time once again for the Armadillo Road Report, the Official UNOfficial Twisted Sister concert review containing all the details you wanted to know….and plenty ya don't!
Well okay folks--
I've slept off most of the day and it's time for the first of what I'm sure will be many unofficial TS Vegas reviews. I will spare you the details of the adventures getting to the show—let's just say that the next time I go to Vegas, I'm bringing a map, a compass and a GPS. And if I ever have to follow Joe Rock to a show, I'm putting on the hazard lights and tying a tow rope to his back fender. It seems a good portion of our trip consisting of trying to get to the Silverton after losing Joe Rock in rush hour traffic. Not his fault--Vegas traffic is a nightmare.
First things first--It was a true delight to meet many of the slamboarders, including our own Webbie--what a standup guy! He is the spirit of Twisted Sister, photographer extraordinaire, and a really nice fellow to boot. I owe him many more beers since he wouldn't let me buy him dinner. There were eight of us for the pre-show dinner, and we met up with Donna from Connecticut and her family entourage later--also a treat. What a fun family—Twisted Sister is obviously a family affair—now how cool is that?. We had the opportunity to sit and chat with Jay Jay in the lounge prior to the show. Our topics ranged from news and music to sports—what an incredibly rare moment, to just engage in casual conversation. Jay Jay, once again, is a true gentleman, a wonderful conversationalist and very generous to spend some time with us. Many thanks, Sir--you are the best.
Okay…on to the show. So let me paint you a picture here—the last time we were at the Silverton, 900 or so of us crammed into the Ballroom (which is now the new buffet, incidentally), so when we heard the venue was moved to their outside concert area, I was pleased as punch. I mean, really, it was a casino ballroom—I figured we could only go up from there. That is, until we saw the new location where TS was playing--yep. It was the pool area. Nothing less, nothing more. Ladies and Gentlemen—I give you: The Twisted Sister pool party. In anticipation of your next question, yes, there was more than one SMF in the pool before the evening was over. Aside from the long hair and spikes, you might have mistaken it for a Bar Mitzvah reception. Now let me just say--this is not Twisted's fault--Something tells me they were as surprised as we were. All we needed was a TS logo ice sculpture and some chicken satay and there would have been Mazel Tov's all around. We all made the best of it. A few of those little pigs in blankets might have been nice, but at least I didn't have to deal with any creepy uncles or four foot aunts with beehives.
I digress. The concert.
In true Twisted Sister form, they went onstage exactly at 8:00 pm to a very motivated, fired up crowd. From the opening chord to the last, the sound was excellently balanced.. In fact, they sounded good from the get-go--however, the lighting crew must have been off at the buffet because they played in the dark for quite a few bars—now I'm not complaining, as no one really minded--we thought it was pool ambiance, minus the tiki torches. It was particularly amusing when Dee said: "May I have some scary lighting please?" during Burn in Hell. Dee's vocals sounded great--and it was especially impressive in light of his recent medical adventures. He did have some trouble with the microphone sporadically, but again, it certainly did not detract.
Now, don't shoot me folks--but this concert was just not the best one they've ever done. I feel very blessed and fortunate to be able to go to so many shows that I can compare one to the other--and let's face it, TS on an off-day is better than other bands on their best day. It was still an EXCELLENT show, but there were, well, how shall I say this...musical mistakes? They just didn't play as tight as I've heard them. Don't get me wrong, I loved every single moment, but they just didn't sound as fantastic as I've heard them before---hey, when you play as great as they do, it's hard to top every performance. I love seeing them live no matter what--it always exhilarates me. I still left exhausted but recharged. Only two U.S. shows left in 2006--one at the raceway, and one to be announced in Wisconsin (I don't get it either, but I'll sure try to be there!) so PLEASE beg, borrow and steal if you haven't had a chance to see them live on the reunion tour. It is worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY. I promise.
We also got a chance to see Mark's beautiful new bass (See the photos!) and AJ's drum solo gave us some treats--he mixed some other sounds into the solo--such as a whistle--very interesting effect. Eddie and Jay Jay blew us away as usual, and I'm pleased to report that Mark did not destroy as many mic stands or roadies as he usually does. I really enjoyed the set list--Captain Howdy followed by Street Justice was a gem, and Come Out and Play sounded very clean, very good. Didn't get my UTB fill, but hey, there's always the hope for another Bent Brother show.
I'm not too thrilled with the staff of the Silverton--they were not very kind to our own Mayor or Webbie, and refused to honor their backstage passes, even after Danny told them it was okay. Danny, always the diplomat and gentleman, got things sorted out in the end. (many many thanks!) As if the pool obstacle wasn't enough, there was a lime green fabric strip (think: bank line or disneyland, whichever works for you) that was supposed to act as a barricade. I referred to it as the "Right Guard deodorant power stripe"--not to imply that we were odor--but TS fans once again proved that we are well behaved sick mutha fuckers if nothing else, and we did honor the rope and stayed behind it, until Dee finally invited us to cross it for the last song.
It was a real joy to see a lot of youngsters--there were two kids under 13 in the front row who were just elated--good to see! Lots of old and new fans alike. It made up for the row of unsuspecting comp ticketed senior citizens sitting poolside in the cabanas--fortunately no one had a cardiac event--Dee, in a way only he can, suggested a trip to the buffet instead and reminded them that "their bus was leaving!" Really, what was the casino thinking? There was an assortment of TS merch--the black, tastefully embroidered TS polo shirt was very amusing (but a bit pricey at $50)-- the fact that there now IS a TS polo shirt, or the fact that I would gleefully wear one--well, either way it says I'm getting old. I'm holding out for those elusive tour jackets!
Lastly, no night would be complete without the afterglow. Jay Jay, Eddie and AJ signed autographs afterwards and chatted with the fans. We were also very fortunate to visit the Rainbow Room after the show, where most of the band and crew enjoyed a late dinner/drink. The slamboard bunch was thrilled to watch AJ sign the drumhead they have on display--I believe the Rainbow Room website will have photos soon. AJ spilled some news of some possible future projects he's been thinking about--films. This TS show did not disappoint us--we had a great time filled with many special treats. I hope that I can see many of you again. Props to all the Boys, Danny and all the Slamboarders!
And with that, my sick friends, I'm trotting off to bed. This reunion tour is just the best!!! I will never forget this experience as long as I live!

Just like fad diets for humans, popular diets for your pets come and go. However, there's one particular pet diet trend that gives us pause: ASPCA experts say raw food diets for pets that include raw meat, eggs and milk may be dangerous for your furry friends. We typically recommend that pet parents opt for well-balanced, high-quality commercial and cooked foods instead.
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) agrees. In studies published in AVMA's journal, homemade and commercial raw food diets for dogs and cats were found to contain dangerous bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella, just to name a few. Other tests showed that unprocessed food diets can lead to nutrient deficiencies or excess that can cause serious illnesses in pets. Also, pets chewing on raw bones can lead to obstruction or perforation of their gastrointestinal tracts, and fractured teeth.
If you don't want to feed your dog or cat a commercial diet, consider a homemade diet that will diminish the risks of foodborne illnesses. These meals should be thoroughly cooked and need to be formulated by a veterinary nutritionist or by your veterinarian to make sure they're nutritionally sound.
If you are passionate about feeding your pet raw foods, please consider the following tips.
- Work with your veterinarian to ensure that your pet's diet is nutritionally balanced.
- Avoid feeding raw foods in homes with babies and toddlers (who put lots of things in their mouths), the elderly and those with compromised immune systems.
- Practice regular hand washing before and after feeding pets.
- Practice appropriate disposal methods when cleaning up pet feces.
For more information about pet-safe diets, consult your veterinarian and check out our complete list of people foods that are dangerous to pets.
Tell us in the comments below: Do you feed your pet raw foods or a homemade diet?
Wow ... it's disturbing that the ASPCA is publishing such disinformation. I guess they, too, have been bought by Big Pet Food! My donations to the ASPCA will stop until they become more enlightened. And, by the way, my dogs are thriving on raw, dehydrated, and freeze-dried food - no way will I subject them to overprocessed kibble that is little more than meat-flavored crap.
The most telling thing about this article is that it makes no mention of the dangers of the typical commercial kibble, mainstream brands such as Pedigree and Purina. The main ingredient in those foods is GM corn, and many contain gluten. Dogs digestive systems are not equipped to digest those things, and they both cause allergic reactions and cause dogs to develop new allergies to other things they eat. Commercial food also contains industrial waste products. Their packages would lead you to believe that they are formulated for ideal nutrition because they conform to AAFCO's pathetic standards, but they are actually formulated for maximum convenience and lowest cost to manufacture. That is why they have so many times been found to contain contaminated ingredients from China. How many times have there been recalls on commercial food because it was making dogs sick, and how many dogs have been made sick by a raw food diet? ASPCA clearly knows which side its bread is buttered on, and it makes me angry that people will trust this article because in most other respects ASPCA is a good advocate for animals.
The people saying that dogs' nutritional needs are different from wolves lack a clear understanding of evolutionary biology. Dogs share 98% of their DNA with wolves. Zoologists actually consider domestic dogs to be a subspecies of the gray wolf, one of 27. Domestic dogs have only existed for about 15,000 years, and the gray wolf dates from the Middle Pleistocene Era, which ended 126,000 years ago. Most of the differences between the subspecies are merely cosmetic. Dogs' digestive systems evolved to process raw meat, entrails, bones, skin and fur, and that is what fulfills their nutritional needs. Most of the plant matter that a wolf consumes is the partially digested contents of the digestive tracts of its herbivorous prey. The first thing they eat from a fresh kill are the organs - liver, heart and kidneys.
Wolves' and dogs' short digestive tracts make them especially resistant to common bacteria such as e. coli, which is found in the intestines of most warm-blooded animals and is mostly non-pathenogenic anyway. However, I would be cautious about feeding factory-farmed meat to a dog raw, because most of those animals are diseased and often carry mutated, resistant strains of bacteria (because of the over-use of antibiotics), the ones that have been causing so many disease outbreaks in humans. I would hope that the commercially prepared raw food brands are getting their meat from somewhere other than the typical factory sources. I would think that at the very least, game meats such as rabbit and venison would be safe. Also, any raw meat that you give your dog should be accompanied by bones or egg shells as a source of calcium. Frozen raw dog foods typically have bone meal mixed in. Dogs need calcium to balance out the phosphorus in the meat. So if you're just tossing your dog a raw steak every night, no, that is not healthy because it is not a well-balanced diet. Your dog's diet requires a little more thought than that.
Crap! Do you know what arguement people in my country have relating to raw feeding? Your pet can catch something...ummm...something...the vet said...it's bad you know!
If it were bad then raw feeding owners wouldn't have cats and dogs that outlived their breed's expectancy. While on the other side there are commercial feeding owners whose pets die young, obese and a slow agonizing death, so agonizing that they have to euthanize them so that they won't suffer as much. I have a family background of hunters, who fed their dogs animal intestines and bones all of their lives and they lived up to 18-20 years. My friends have cats which are fed on kibble, hell, my cat was once fed on kibble and he was obese and unable to even clean himself, how is that for a "healthy" cat?
But this is a no end arguement. No matter how many proof there is in favor of raw feeding, there will always be people who think it's best to feed kibble and crap.
However, ASPCA espousing the idea that they are dangerous is VERY dangerous, and is going to prompt me to cancel my ASPCA Guardian membership. How much did Purina donate to you to get you to say this? The supermarket dog food giants pump nothing but corn, soy, wheat and meat by-product that humans wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole into our pets. Do your own research and do not buy into the idea that feeding a quality, home-prepared (raw or otherwise) diet is unsafe. If you can't prepare at home or are uncomfortable feeding all raw, you can supplement a high quality (I prefer grain-free) kibble with raw meaty bones (raw chicken backs, raw turkey necks, raw marrow bones -- these are FANTASTIC for your dogs). Your dogs and cats need real meat to be truly healthy and happy.
My family doctor does not suggest what I eat, as he is not a nutritionist ... Why are vets, who have little or no training other than from (Big Pharma Kibble Company) being accepted as authorities on this subject??? It is all scare tactics, use your common sense people, and feed your pets appropriatly!!!
Only thing I have to say is:
For those people saying 'we shouldn't feed according to the wild, because animals in the wild don't live very long,' what do you think wild cats in zoos eat? Kibble?
Wild cats in zoos eat the same things their free counterparts do. And *in* captivity, away from the dangers of the real outdoors, they live as long as our domestic cats. Servals (which are *frequently* bred with domestic cats to produce the Savannah breed) live 20 YEARS in captivity; eating a raw diet like they were always meant to do. :)
My dogs live on two fenced -in acres. They catch and eat birds, bunnies, and squirels. It's second nature to them. There isn't anything we can do about that. It doesn't worry me cause it's "fresh" meat and it hasn't harmed them yet. I do not feed my dogs raw anything. They get store bought and the small occaisional bite of "people" food.
Here is a much better article on the pros/cons and controversy over raw food diets. If you read it you'll see it's a complicated issue. There are a lot of things to think about. The big thing I take away is that as of yet there are no studies comparing raw diets to commercial, so any claims of success are not scientifically supported (that doesnt mean theyre not there, they just havent been studied yet). However, there are studies documenting the potential nutritional and bacterial risks of raw diets. In light of that, everyone should weigh the risks and do what they think is best for there pets and family and if that means feeding raw, fine, but dont try to tell everyone else that raw is better and it what's right for them.
My dog, Ty, is allergic to everything under the sun, and had hives so bad for a few months that he was constantly itching open lesions. My vets coached me through steroids and Benadryl, and I experimented with commercial foods, but the few that contained none of the things he's allergic to still left Ty itching. I finally put him on cooked chicken only to "reset" and see if he still had reactions... he did. Upon researching and speaking to many friends, I tried a raw diet with hopes that bioavailable nutrients would help boost his immunity, and his hives started clearing up. I use Stella & Chewy's, since they make sure it's balanced with vegetation and they test every batch for disease. My dog is healthy, happy, itch-free, and has great digestion. I'm so glad I found something that works for him (and he LOVES it!).
I cook either ground beef, turkey or chicken breasts and mix with brown rice and either brocoli, peas, green beans, carrots or a mixture of them. I cook it well. Sometimes I add eggs, cooked, and some canola or fish oil. My dogs are small mixed breeds. Earlier on I tried some raw and ended up at the vets. He was against it. They do very well on this diet. At times when I run short, I tried some canned food... not good. I do keep some dry food available for them to crunch on them. They eat a little of it between the two meals I give them every day. Their fur is nice and shiny, they have been healthy (ages 4 years). I did my research on cooking for them and the amount of starch and vegetables to add. I hope to be able to continue to cook their food. I cook a weeks worth at a time and freeze some, keep 5 days defrosted. Some dogs may do well raw, mine do not.

Satara is a busy camp, and not without reason. It is situated in an excellent game viewing area, with the bush relatively open and the animals plentiful and diverse. The camp itself has a rustic charm, with the bulk of the accommodation set out in a series of circles. Satara is well wooded and the bird-life is prolific. At night the clink of fruit bats is fused with the chirping of cicadas and crickets. The calls of owls and nightjars add to the symphony that is punctuated intermittently by the whoop of hyena, the screech of jackal and the roars of lion.
