Aerobic Fitness Predicts CRP Levels in Type II Diabetics
Byron's Comments:
To keep CRP lower, regardless of your overall health, stay as aerobically fit as possible.
Study Title:Relation of cardiorespiratory fitness to inflammatory markers, fibrinolytic factors, and lipoprotein(a) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Study Abstract:
Increased inflammation, fibrinolytic factors, and lipoprotein(a) (LP[a]) were associated with increased cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes, whereas higher levels of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) were associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular mortality. Whether CRF is associated with inflammatory markers, fibrinolytic factors, and LP(a) in patients with type 2 diabetes was investigated. A total of 425 men with type 2 diabetes (mean age 55 +/- 8 years) who participated in a medical screening program were studied. CRF was measured using peak oxygen uptake with expired gas analysis during a symptom-limited exercise test. CRF inversely correlated with C-reactive protein (CRP; r = -0.27, p <0.05), white blood cell count (r = -0.13, p <0.05), fibrinogen (r = -0.28, p <0.05), LP(a) (r = -0.53, p <0.05), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen (r = -0.65, p <0.05), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 activity (r = -0.17, p <0.05). Men in the highest tertile of CRF had significantly lower CRP, white blood cell count, fibrinogen, LP(a), and t-PA than men in the lowest tertile of CRF (all p <0.05). In separate multivariable linear regression models that adjusted for age, body mass index, smoking, lipid profiles, glucose, and systolic blood pressure, CRP (beta = -0.23, p <0.05), white blood cell count (beta = -0.16, p <0.05), fibrinogen (beta = -0.24, p <0.05), LP(a) (beta = -0.28, p <0.05), and t-PA (beta = -0.69, p <0.05) were each inversely associated with CRF. Each MET increment higher peak oxygen uptake was associated with a lower odds ratio of having abnormal LP(a) (odds ratio 0.43, 95% confidence interval 0.20 to 0.91) in a multivariate logistic regression model. In conclusion, CRF was inversely associated with inflammatory markers, fibrinolytic factors, and LP(a) in men with type 2 diabetes.

To Let -- AKA Para Entrar A Vivir (2006)
Fear 4/5
Gore 3/5
Entertainment 5/5
Creepiness 4/5
The 2nd feature I've watched from the Spanish series 6 Films to Keep You Awake, To Let will keep you on edge throughout with its frenetic pacing. And after having checked out two films in the series, I can say it's already better than most horror series out there (I'm looking at you 8 Films To Die For).
Our film begins with a husband as he picks his wife up from the hospital as she's expecting and just paid a visit to her doc. The husband is holding an ad which he picked out of their mailbox about a reasonably priced new apartment and he convinces his wife to make a drive out to the neighborhood where the apartment is located. Upon arrival, the rundown building and surrounding area is met with disdain by his wife but he convinces her to give it a shot anyways.
The landlady immediately greets them and guides them inside, up the stairs and through the hallway which (hopefully) leads them to their new home. But on our trip upstairs, we take note of the shoddy condition of the joint and see the disapproving looks of a wife who's already written off the housing prospect.
Stepping inside the apartment, we see the insides and the additional accommodations don't really save the day. The apartment is worn down, leaking and having mechanical issues within the kitchen. Simply put: its a dump. The wife cuts off the landlady mid sentence and prepares herself to exit stage left with her husband. But before they can do so, she momentarily falls ill and the landlady advises her to take rest in a nearby room. After she tells her to lie down in her 'condition', making the young couple aware of the fact that she knows the couple is expecting (even thought the wife is barely showing), we begin to suspect that our landlady has no intentions of letting them leave. When the husband exits the room to question the landlady, she clobbers him over the head with a hallway decoration which knocks him unconscious.
Our expectant mother rushes out of the apartment and finds her way into another one thinking that other folks who live there could help her out. As she winds her way through the apartment, she sees a dressed up mannequin positioned in front of a blaring TV. She also finds a baby's play pen where it looks like a little tyke took residence not so long ago. Making her way into the bathroom, she finds a woman, alive, handcuffed and chained to the wash basin, made to look like a happy resident who's starting off her day. Our demented landlady finds her and takes a cattle prod to her and drags her back up to the apartment.
After being tied up, our scheming landlady reveals why she's chosen the young couple, talking about the fate of her beloved building and business if she doesn't bring in new tenants. This revelation sent shivers down my spine. I'm sure we can all relate to having a nutty landlord at some point in our lives. The young mom-to-be escapes from being tied to a chair and it's a cat and mouse game all the way to the end as she helps free our attached to a sink woman and they encounter the fucked up landlady's mongoloid son. Does she escape or become a permanent resident?
Brought to you by one half of the dynamic duo behind the [REC] series, To Let is unrelenting and terrifying. And it also has one of the best dismemberments by way of garbage disposal ever committed to film.

Ha, I posted my review not too long after yours without even knowing that you posted one!
The review I wrote was from like 6-months ago, and at the time, I really disliked To Let, however, since that time, and after re-reading my review, I feel like I might have been overly critical of some of the film's shortcomings.
One of the biggest issues is most everything that happens in the second half is very hard to swallow and the characters turn into morons and do everything but what they should be doing to survive. For what ever reason, that really got to me when I watched it.
Maybe I expected less stupidity from a director such as Balaguero. I often can overlook some of those issues for some horror films if they do a lot of other shit right, and To Let does do a lot of other shit right. It's wonderfully shot, the set design is incredible and it's quick and to the point.
I'll have to re-watch it again down the line to see if I feel differently than I did when I watched it, as even now I am surprised at the venom I had for the film when I watched it!
Either way, glad you are digging the series thus far, and be sure to check out A Christmas Tale asap!

Matt, I see what you're saying. They do make some dumb decisions. But I overlooked that in favor of the story and the freaky landlady. Good lord she creeped me the fuck out. Give it a whirl again and let me know what you think. I'll def. keep you posted on what I think about the rest of the films in the series.

Promises Made, Promises Kept
They go deep underground, putting their lives, limbs and lungs on the line. They take deep yet humble pride in their work – because they know what it means for our state, our country, their families and communities.
They're coal miners. And we owe them so much – including staying true to the promise of lifetime health benefits and a fair pension after they retire.
A couple decades ago, coal companies were beginning to walk away from that pledge – leaving a handful of more honorable companies to pay the full tab, and steering two key health benefit funds dangerously toward insolvency and thousands of retirees toward a life without health care coverage.
That's why, beginning in the late 1980s, I fought year after year and shoulder-to-shoulder with miners and advocates to protect the health benefits of tens of thousands of retired coal miners.
This fall, we marked the 20-year anniversary of succeeding in that effort with the passage of my Coal Act of 1992, which created two new funds to protect health and death benefits for retired UMWA miners, their spouses and children.
At the time of its passage, my legislation protected benefits for more than 113,000 retired miners and their families across America. Today, those funds continue providing benefits to nearly 24,000 individuals nationwide including more than 8,200 West Virginians.
Over the years, I've heard from miners and their loved ones across our state about what good health – and the security that comes with having health coverage – means to them. Some fought right along with me – even to the very last years of their lives – to preserve benefits for their fellow UMWA retirees and widows.
That's what West Virginians do, isn't it? We know the meaning of, "a promise made is a promise kept." And we stand up for each other, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable odds and corporate interests that often look at the bottom line rather than the impact on real people.
The struggle for miners' benefits didn't begin with the Coal Act of 1992 – it's a long and storied battle dating back to President Truman's administration. I have a photo given to me by Cecil Roberts of the signing of the famous 1946 agreement that created the UMWA pension and health care funds next to my desk. I see it every day and am reminded of the sacredness of that promise to our miners.
And we've had to continue our fight in the years since the Coal Act to protect benefits for our coal miners – including in 2006 when we shored up health benefits for thousands of West Virginia retirees and widows with funding from interest earned on Abandoned Mine Land (AML) funds.
By using interest earned on AML funds that coal companies already set aside for the reclamation of abandoned mine sites, we were able to make sure taxpayers are not on the hook for miners' health care benefits while also preserving the reclamation goals of the underlying AML fund.
Today we're in a position to use this successful approach again. And that's just what I'm pushing for on behalf of thousands of West Virginians facing the very real possibility of seeing their pension fund become insolvent and losing their retiree health care benefits altogether unless Congress takes action.
The UMWA pension plan, which provides benefits to 111,550 miners and retirees nationwide including 35,170 in West Virginia, is on the verge of insolvency largely because of the 2008 financial crisis. Another plan that provides retiree health care benefits to a newer generation of miners is at risk because of the recent bankruptcy filing of Patriot Coal Corporation.
Through spin-offs and acquisitions, Patriot assumed responsibility for health care benefits of thousands of retirees. Most of them have never worked for Patriot, and through no fault of their own have seen their benefits placed at risk because of the company's bankruptcy.
Should Patriot shed its obligations to retirees – which I've told the company would be severely unjust – the health benefit plan many of these retirees would be eligible for wouldn't be able to assume the added costs.
That means 7,000 West Virginians – Patriot beneficiaries and others under the plan – would lose their health care coverage.
We simply can't let that happen. We can't go back on our word to coal miners who have worked their entire careers under the promise of a secure retirement and lifetime health care benefits. That's why I pledged to the retirees to do everything possible to help.
I've already introduced a proposal to shore up the pension plan by using interest earned on AML funds. And I'm working hard on additional solutions to hold employers accountable for the promises they make to their retirees, and to protect benefits for retired miners when their companies go bankrupt.
This is a new fight in a decades-long effort to make sure our miners and their loved ones get the benefits they worked for, count on and absolutely deserve. Passage of the Coal Act 20 years ago was a profoundly important moment – one I am proud and humbled to have led – that preserved a deeply sacred pledge to the hardest working people I've ever known.
Today brings another challenge – and another opportunity to carry that promise forward.

Each week we shall interview authors about their work and the disciple behind their writing. Call 646-721-9611 during the show with your questions or comments.
This week's author: Wesley "Godfather" Hunter
Born and raised in the streets of Los Angeles, Mr. Wesley "Godfather" Hunter began his journey of gang-banging and crime at a very youthful age. By age 10 he'd already experienced his first arrest and stay in a jail cell. By the age of 12 he'd begun a career of incarceration, which has kept him physically imprisoned for most of his life. Yet, even in this, life has not left him bitter and he continues to strive, finding the strength within himself to overcome against the odds.
Now a 32 year-old aspiring author, currently incarcerated in the California Dept. of Corrections where he is serving out the remainder of a 20 year sentence for commercial armed robbery and 2 counts of attempted murder on sheriff's deputies, Wesley has used his time wisley. Devoted to spreading the word of change/love and self-respect in his works and titles, he spends most of his time focused on positive writings, thoughts and goals geared towards improving himself, and giving something back to society in the form of insight, experience, and wisdom.
Mr. Godfather has written several novels and an autobiography but has since established his own Urban Diamonds Publishing to release his latest titles. He has started a youth help organization, "The Raw Truth", to bring forth through the inner city churches and other youth-related programs.

DOT fills panel meant to protect fliers
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood named the four-member panel Thursday that will evaluate consumer-protection programs for fliers and make recommendations to him for improvements.
The panel, which Congress created in the latest Federal Aviation Administration legislation signed into law Feb. 14, will hold public meetings and discuss ways to help airline customers.
"We are committed to protecting and strengthening the rights of consumers when they fly," LaHood said.
The four members are:
--Lisa Madigan, the attorney general for Illinois, whose office handles 25,000 to 30,000 consumer complaints a year on issues such as financial fraud or product safety.
--David Berg, general counsel for Airlines for America, the industry group representing the country's largest airlines. He is responsible for the group's legal issues passengers with disabilities and airport landing fees.
--Deborah Ale-Flint, director of aviation for Oakland International Airport, where she manages the airport's operation and development.
--Charles Leocha, director of the advocacy group Consumer Travel Alliance, where he monitors federal regulation and legislation.
The Transportation Department has already adopted consumer protections such as a rule that fines airlines when planes are delayed on the tarmac for more than three hours without letting passengers off, and that require airfare advertising to include the full price immediately.
But consumer advocates such as Leocha have urged greater transparency in ticket pricing so that comparisons between airlines become easier.
"With the close cooperation of consumer groups representing both leisure travelers and business travelers, a stronger and more unified voice will now be heard from airline passengers," Leocha said.
The panel officially called the Advisory Committee for Aviation Consumer Protection, which will have $110,000 per year to hold meetings and get technical support, is scheduled to end Sept. 30, 2015.

The United States Constitution, as the Obama Regime pretends to understand it, is a most peculiar document, one that is actually enhanced by the criminal actions of public officials who brazenly violate its most explicit provisions. Most people would assume that such actions would tarnish the Constitution. As the administration tells it, however, decades of persistent presidential contempt for the Constitution have conferred an "historical gloss" on the document, just as decades of determined obfuscation of its unambiguous and easily understood war powers provisions have "clarified" their meaning.
Caroline D. Krass, a minor functionary in the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel, was assigned to play the role of the Obama administration's John Yoo — that is, the sophist responsible for composing a spurious but serviceable legal rationale for the exercise of dictatorial powers by the president. The resulting memo — dated, appropriately, April 1 — claims that Obama needed no congressional authorization of any kind to commit aggressive war against Libya, since in his holy and indisputable judgment the possibility of "regional instability" and injury to the "credibility and effectiveness of the United Nations Security Council" posed threats to our national security that demanded a military response. Accordingly, Krass concluded, Obama could initiate war with Libya "as Commander in Chief and Chief Executive and pursuant to his foreign affairs powers … even without prior specific congressional approval.'
The actual text of the Constitution, and the well-articulated intent of the Framers to deny the president unilateral powers of this kind, are inconsequential, according to Krass, who cites an earlier OLC opinion claiming that a "pattern of executive conduct, made under claim of right, extended over many decades and engaged in by Presidents of both parties, evidences the existence of broad constitutional power." It does no such thing, of course, any more than the persistence of armed robbery in defiance of laws against theft "evidences the existence of a broad right to steal property at gunpoint" (which is, of course, the defining activity of the institutionalized affliction called "government").
Krass's memo does offer a pretty detailed description of the devious dialectic in which presidents have usurped war powers, and congress has abdicated its authority, yielding the present post-constitutional synthesis in which any elected dictator can wage war anywhere for as long as he or she pleases. The only "possible constitutionally-based limit" on the president's supposed authority to wage war, she insists, would involve "a planned military engagement that constitutes a `war' within the meaning of the Declaration of War Clause…." This is to say that from the Regime's perspective, there is a vague, and not terribly important, possibility that the Declaration of War Clause might actually impose a hypothetical limit on presidential war powers. However, the memo goes on to assert that "the historical practice of even intensive military action [such as] … some two months of bombing in Yugoslavia in 1999 — without specific prior congressional approval" effectively nullifies that constitutional limitation.
The compelling "national interest" claimed in the OLC memo is two-fold: First, preventing a "humanitarian catastrophe" that "could" have ensued in Benghazi (a claim that was as much a cynical fiction as Bill Clinton's lie that hundreds of thousands of Kosovo Albanians were facing annihilation, or the Bush administration's fabrications about Saddam's WMD); and second, "maintaining the credibility of the United Nations Security Council and the effectiveness of its actions to promote international peace and security." Both of those objectives are best served, we are supposed to believe, by flinging Tomahawk cruise missiles at population centers in a country that posed no threat to us.
Of particular interest in this connection is Krass's statement that "the United States government has recognized that `[t]he continued existence of the United Nations as an effective international organization is a paramount United States interest.'" That phrase, which was cited by the first Bush administration to justify the UN-"authorized" December 1992 invasion of Somalia, originated in a 1950 State Department Bulletin entitled Authority of the President to Repel the Attack in Korea. The term "paramount," of course, is a synonym for "supreme"; this means that Krass and her predecessors defined preservation of the UN as the supreme foreign policy interest of the United States government.
As was recently pointed out in LRC, the United Nations was never intended to be a peace organization. From the beginning, as Simon Tisdall of the Guardian of London observes, the UN's "primary purpose was as a war-fighting machine." When Congress enacted the United Nations Participation Act in December 1945, it effectively repudiated its constitutional role in declaring war, deferring instead to a new arrangement in which the president can deploy troops anywhere in the world in compliance with our supposed "obligations" to the UN and the international system it administers.
Granted, the UN war-making system hasn't operated in strict accordance with its charter — but this is just another case in which the text of a supposedly binding document has been transcended by the "historical gloss" placed on it by policymakers who recognize no limits on the powers they exercise. Whenever such people find their ambitions constricted by the terms of a constitution or charter, they will simply write themselves an elaborate permission slip — festooned with specious citations — authorizing them to do whatever they damn well please.1:00 am on April 8, 2011 Email William Norman Grigg

- Defining mPOS requirements and best practices to support the open development of commercially viable solutions and services, while upholding Visa's principles of security, brand integrity and interoperability.
- Providing applications, tools and services to enable the development of mobile acceptance solutions compatible with magnetic-stripe, EMV-chip, and contactless-card payments.
- Making available open API (Application Program Interface) and SDK (Software Development Kit) to allow mPOS solutions providers in select markets to connect to Visa via a number of payment gateways, including CyberSource and Authorize.Net, acquired by Visa Inc. in 2010.
- Providing access to documentation and resources to guide partners and vendors through the Visa approval process.
- Providing access to the Visa Ready symbol, collateral and brand-usage guidelines that can be used to market and promote Visa-approved mPOS solutions.
Visa Ready for Mobile (NFC) PaymentsMobile phones are also transforming the consumer shopping experience, allowing consumers to make purchases with a wave of their smartphone. Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, the short-range communications standard that transforms mobile phones into payment devices, is expected to reach critical mass in 2013. According to ABI Research, more than 280 million NFC-enabled devices are expected to ship in 2013. 1 As part of the Visa Ready Partner program, Visa is streamlining its compliance testing process for both mobile NFC devices and secure chips that host the Visa payWave application by:
- Establishing clear guidelines for extensive technical, security and usability testing with respect to the Visa payment functionality.
- Ensuring Visa transactions initiated with NFC mobile devices are compliant with the global standard for chip-enabled payments.
- Establishing a required signal range for mobile NFC-enabled devices hosting the Visa payWave application.
- Providing NFC device manufacturers with a Visa Ready symbol that can be used to market and promote mobile devices as approved for use with Visa payWave.

I have a similar problem with breakfast, in that what I really like to have
is mostly verboten. It's 9:30 and I haven't eaten breakfast yet. (Luckily my
BG was 85 when I got up, and I don't seem to suffer from dawn phenomenon
these days...) Have you considered adding some fruit to either cottage
cheese or yogurt? I like cottage cheese with an apple diced into it, and
half a cup with a 100gm apple is about 20 gms of carb. (Which means I can't
have it for breakfast, but oh well, lunch is okay.) Greek yogurt with some
thawed frozen blueberries or strawberries and sweetener of your choice might
also work.

I'll be checking in with some of you privately as the week goes on. In the meantime, if you still have electricity and everything is buttoned down and safe, feel free to comment here and let us know how you're doing.

I heard on the radio at 6:00 AM that around 2 million are without power in NJ so it may be awhile before we hear from Walker or Ed. As I mentioned over on FB where my wife and I live seems to have been spared the worst. 30 miles west in York, Pa and north in Lebanon (perhaps 35+ miles away) they weren't so lucky. Glad I don't line in Atlantic City as they got around 11 inches of rain. The only pulps in my basement are on a display rack so it was easy to take them upstairs. I wish I could say the same for what felt like a ton of HC books.

Despite losing power for a couple days, the Collection survived. I'm limping around from picking up hundreds of branches. I did something that I haven't done since I was kid. I read pulps by flashlight and candlelight.

Glad you are ok Walker (other than your back of course) I've been wondering if you lost power. On Sunday I moved what seemed like a ton of books upstairs from the basement/family room just in case.

"This is a delicious recipe! If you are craving an apple pie but don't feel like putting in all the work to make one, this recipe is a great substitute. A single recipe yields enough delicious oat topping for at least 8 apples. This recipe is so delicious and stupidly easy that I plan on making it again very soon! Thank you Alton Brown!"

A request for help from the parents of two home educated children.
I am on a 60 Day In Home Wellness Retreat. Come with me!
President Obama wrote a book about audacity.
Trail blazing men and women have been doing it for years.
In the fast paced world of the 21st century, it has become a necessary attribute.
But what does it mean to be audacious in today's world? Are there any conventions left worthy of defying? Are there any ceilings left to break through?
I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and have come to the conclusion that we need audacious women now more than ever before.
What do you think:
To think of England is to think of many things – history, Shakespeare, the Royal Family, bad teeth and fish & chips.
I have lived on this big tiny island for almost 10 years and I have fallen in love with many things about this place, but maybe not what one might expect.
Here is my top 10 Things I Love About Living In England. Would you add anything else? Leave a comment!
Naming our foremothers is a special gift.
I imagine sometimes what it would be like to stand with my foremothers – my grandmother, my great grandmother, and my great grandmother. They were all born in different lands, two on the Indian subcontinent, one in Scotland. What were their stories?
What wisdom did they learn in their years of immigration, war, and colonialism?
What did was their experience of motherhood like? Of being working women? Wives? People in their own right?
I came across an amazing picture by an Australian photographer that inspired me to not only know my own foremothers, but to hope that one day, I live to see and hold my great granddaughter in my arms.
Can you even imagine?
To see this photograph, click on the link. And please leave a comment!
The experience of being the parent of a child on the autism spectrum is well documented. I often write about my own experience of this.
What is not written about nearly as much is the experiences of women on the autism spectrum. There are many autistic mothers out there with varying levels of disability – some are not disabled at all, in so far as being on the spectrum does not limit their ability to live a normal life.
I would class myself in this category – on the spectrum but not overly disabled. And yet, my experience of motherhood is different from someone who is neurotypical. Here are my thoughts as my youngest reaches his first birthday:
Motherhood has been used as a method of opression of women for millenia. But every now and then, a group of uppity women will stand in solidarity and turn that dynamic on its head. Motherhood ceases to oppress and becomes a means of resistance and liberation.
In the 3rd installment of the Audacious
Foremothers series we look at how one group of women spoke truth to power and won.

Trade effect
The euro's trade impact is clearly important for the nations that have already joined euroland. But the size and nature of the trade effects are even more important for the EU members who have not joined the euro: the UK, Denmark, Sweden and the ten new nations scheduled to join next year. What are they missing? Will they face trade diversion if they do not join? For example, the debate on whether or not to join the euro is raging in the UK where it has been polarized to an extraordinary degree. This debate is in desperate need of economic analysis, in order to help clarify the potential impact of the euro on a number of dimensions, one of which is trade. This paper, we hope, will contribute to the debate, by providing estimates of the currency union effect on trade, for the specific case of the countries in the European Union. For this purpose, we use a panel data set that includes the most recent information on bilateral trade for 22 developed countries from 1992 to 2002. During this period 12 European nations formally entered into a currency union. This unique event allows us to study the effect of currency union on trade among a relatively homogeneous group of industrial countries. Controlling for a host of other factors, we find that the effect of EMU on bilateral trade between member countries ranges between 4 and 10%, when compared to trade between all other pairs of countries, and between 8 and 16%, when compared to trade among non-EMU countries. In addition, we find no evidence of trade diversion. If anything, our results suggest that the monetary union increases trade not just with EMU countries, but also with the rest of the world.

Item # ZOT0349
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Tri Tops in stock than that.
ZOOT Ultra Tri Ali'i Tank Men's Tri Top $0.00
The spirit of Kona
Zoot's new Ultra Tri Ali'i Tank Top was designed as part of its limited edition Kona collection. This top perfectly complements the eight-inch shorts from this lineup, and it relies on the same proprietary fabrics and fit technologies that have made Zoot a leading choice among competitive triathletes around the world for the past 30 years.
Zoot constructed the Ultra Tri Ali'i from a sublimated Italian fabric called Tavolara. This fabric is known for its exceptional moisture management, which works by transporting sweat from your skin to the quick-drying outer-surface of the fabric. This results in you staying dry, cool, and fresh throughout your longest races and training sessions. In addition to its quick-drying capabilities, Tavolara is also incredibly light in weight, which means that it breathes much better than standard Lycra blends.
In the fit department, the Ultra Tri Ali'i was designed with racing in mind. To achieve this, Zoot incorporated its proprietary stitching, SeamLink. This technique minimizes the stitch profile along the seams, providing a next-to-skin fit that nearly eliminates the risk of chafing and abrasion. Additionally, you'll find that the arm openings are inset as to permit a complete range of motion for the swim, the saddle, and the run.
To secure this fit, and to prevent the tank from shifting, Zoot placed an elasticized gripper along the drop-tail hem. This also prevents the tank from sagging when its three rear cargo pockets are loaded with your race-day essentials. You'll also find a 10-inch Camlock zipper up front, which makes ventilating the tank a simple affair.
The Zoot Ultra Tri Ali'i Tank Tri Top is available in four sizes from Small to X-Large and in the color Black/zoot yellow.
