Customer Reviews
- This is a great product for crusty, bumpy skin! Review by CH, Omak, WA USA
Price Value Quality Last year I received a sample of KP Duty with one of my orders. It just sat on my self because I don't have KP. Recently I ran out of my usual moisturizer and decided to try out the KP Duty sample. And I'm so glad I did! For years I have suffered with crusty skin around my nose and chin. No moisturizer or exfoliator seemed to really help. Almost immediately KP Duty cleared up the problem...yeah!!! This product and Picture Porefect have also helped smooth out the bumps I always get after facial hair removal. Now my makeup goes on effortlessly. Thank you so much!
- THE product for KP! Review by CSSW, Bozeman, MT USA
Price Value Quality I have KP on the backs of my upper arms and the redness has never faded with other products (prescription or over-the-counter). However, KP Duty is AMAZING in that I've been using it for a week (along with the scrub) and I can barely see the red spots. What's more- there aren't any new red spots coming up!
- amazing Review by TLM, VA USA
Price Value Quality I am a African American woman and I have had these ugly and embarrassing bumps on my the back of my arms and thighs for a few years. I have tried other products and scrubs and they would only seem to work for a few days then come back. So when I tried this, I thought, what the heck why not. But then I was amazingly surprised after a few weeks and it stayed gone even more so when I added the body scrub with it, especially because I can continue to use it while pregnant, that was important. I love it and recommend it all I know who has the same issue. Good job DERMAdoctor.
- One product I'll never go without!! Review by A.C, Narrows, Va USA
Price Value Quality I've had KP for as long as I could remember,it went away as I got a little older,I'm almost 30 now,and it came back.I've been trying everything for the past year.I got KP Duty 3 days ago,and my face is almost completly smooth.I'll never use anything else now.What a wonderful product.
- Like Magic Review by NL, Oxford, UK
Price Value Quality I've been using KP Duty for over a year now with amazing results. I had dry bumps on the backs of my legs since I was a little girl, but they've been gone since I started using KP Duty. I saw results within a few days and I'll continue to use it to maintain my fabulous smooth skin. I have *never* written a recommendation like this on a website before, that's how strongly I believe in this product. It is worth every penny!
- Only thing that works Review by CK, Cincinnati, OH USA
Price Value Quality I've had the characteristic "chicken skin bumps" behind my arms for as long as I can remember. I've tried everything from Apricot scrub to alcohol to acne treatments, and nothing ever improved my condition. I discovered "KP Duty" while flipping through a magazine and immediately went to the DermaDoctor web site to read more. I was first amazed to find an actual name for my condition, and second to find a product specifically created for it. I bought the dual pack of chemical peel and lotion. I've been using it for about 4 months and my arms are 90% better! It is amazing! The skin behind my arms is smooth now!
- A miracle product Review by ELJ, Campbell, CA USA
Price Value Quality As a skeptical lawyer, it was hard for me to believe all the amazing results customers raved about on this site. Then my husband and I tried this moisturizer for ourselves. It's true-our skin is healthier, clearer, softer, firmer, and brighter than before. These changes took place almost immediately. We're hooked and won't use anything else on our skin. Try it right out of the shower and before you go to bed at night. You're really going to love your new skin!
- Unbelievable Results Review by Ridgewood, NJ
Price Value Quality I used KP Duty on my 4-year-old son's arms, legs and cheeks, and the results were amazing after only 3-5 days. I took him to a pediatric dermatologist and her advice was useless. KP Duty is expensive, but worth every penny.
- so far so good :] Review by CA, USA
Price Value Quality i have KP on my arms and i bought this a couple days ago and have only used it once. i put it on at night and when i woke up, some of it was already gone!!i definatley recommend this!!
- Can't believe the difference Review by TLP, Kettering, OH
Price Value Quality My son has suffered with KP (and eczema) since he was a few months old (he's 3 1/2 now). We've seen many dermatologists and while the eczema has been resolved nothing they tried would work on the KP. He had not only red skin & bumps but huge whiteheads on his thighs and upper arms. I bought KP duty because I was at my wit's end. I rarely believe those reviews on-line and have never written one of my own but THIS STUFF IS AMAZING!! I wish we'd taken before pictures because after the first use of the scrub & the KP lotion we saw inprovement. Now after 2 months, it is almost gone. I use the scrub 2X a week and the lotion 2x a day. At first I thought this was pricey but it is 100% worth every penny. What I pay for this is one co-pay of the RX stuff that didn't do a thing. My son is no longer miserable.

"What we need to do is always lean into the future. When the world changes around you and when it changes against you—what used to be a tail wind is now a head wind—you have to lean into that and figure out what to do because complaining isn't a strategy. "
Cabin Electronics Manufacturers
Ten years ago, nobody even talked about lighting aircraft cabins with LEDs. Today, not an airplane rolls out of a completion center that isn't LED from nose to tail. The result: illumination that's brighter, lower maintenance, longer lasting and more economical.
In 2008, the idea of wireless cabin electronics was little more than a geek's dream, but five years later, you can transfer information wirelessly aboard many business jets; in fact, the lack of this feature can be a deal-breaker, whether you're buying an airplane or simply chartering one.
Movies, music and PowerPoint presentations from a tablet or smartphone can now be wirelessly streamed to the cabin entertainment system, allowing access by any passenger.
This year at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany, meanwhile, electronics giants Panasonic and Thales were promoting their video eye-tracking and hand-gesture-control features. The technology is available now, according to Panasonic, and should start showing up on aircraft within two years.
As for connectivity, major satellite communication suppliers predict that in-flight data-transfer rates will be the equal of those of any home or office system, also within two years.
Inmarsat is teaming with Honeywell and Boeing to put its Global Xpress Aviation network into service as early as 2015 and is expecting "consistent, high-capacity broadband coverage" with data-transfer rates up to 50 mbps worldwide.
Viasat's Yonder Internet for business aviation, which had a maximum data-transfer rate of about 1 mbps a year ago, took a quantum jump to 4 mbps in May. And the company expects its new Exede Internet to provide global rates of 12 mbps or more as the Ka-band satellite system becomes fully operational and available to aviation users.
Clearly, buyers of new aircraft would be well advised to keep a sharp eye on developments in cabin electronics, because what you select in 2013 may be old technology by 2014. This list of cabin electronics suppliers is a good starting point to stay informed.

NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case Review
Mon, Dec 10, 2012 - 12:00 AM
NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case Overview
NZXT has been on a roll, releasing one innovative case after another. The NZXT Phantom 410 was an award winning case we reviewed here back in December of 2011. One year later NZXT sent us its big brother, the NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case. Unlike the Phantom 410, the Phantom 820's angles are not as hash softening the "Stormtrooper" look. This is probably because the Phantom 820 is almost twice as big as the Phantom 410.
NZXT released the Phantom 820 in three colors, White, Black, and the sample they sent us in Gun Metal Gray. The gray is a nice departure from the all too common black and white that have been so popular lately but it is dark enough you might mistake it for black. This is a full tower case meaning it is simply massive, standing over 28 inches tall and 27 inches deep. All this size in steel comes with a price and that is the 32lb unloaded weight. Fill this case full of water cooling gear and six hard drives and you will not want to be trying to lug this case to your local LAN party. But that is not the point of this case, it was designed to hold everything you could want in a single box, cool it well and silently with copious 200mm slow 800 RPM fans, and do it all in a striking angled and accent lighted form factor. NZXT wanted this to be the pinnacle of the enthusiast full tower cases and loaded it with options. It has an integrated SD card reader, RGB LED accent lighting inside and out with a dial to change between 16 hues, LED utility lights on the rear ports, an integrated four channel 15W fan controller, and enough cable management to make your mother proud.
The Phantom 820 is the new flagship for NZXT and it carries a flagship suggested price of $249.99, but we found a holiday deal of $195.00 plus free shipping from FRY's Electronics good until December 31st (White only). Unless you find a deal buster like this, you can expect to pay closer to the $249.99 since the Phantom 820 has only been on the market a month or two. Either way, this is a premium price for a case especially one made of plastic and steel but NZXT did fill it with features. We will see if the features of the NZXT Phantom 820 justify the price on the next few pages.

Chibaku Tensei is a special technique developed by Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki through the Deva Path, who used it to create the moon and trap the Ten-Tails' body inside of it.
The user creates a singularity that when thrown into the sky, attracts objects from all directions and pulls them into the sphere compressing them simultaneously. The surrounding earth, including forests and mountains, are collected into a single point, piling on top of one another until it creates a large sphere. A large crater is left where the earth has been collected from. The Deva Path had to be brought within close range of Nagato before it could use the technique, and performing it put a great deal of strain on Nagato. This strain eventually caused the technique to dispel, by which the large sphere, that was created by it, fell apart again. The technique can be countered by taking advantage of the strong gravitational pull, using powerful techniques to destroy the black sphere.[1]
Nagato noted that his technique was inferior to that of the Sage of the Six Paths, but despite its admitted inferiority, it was still strong enough to both hold out against a Tailed Beast Ball and incapacitate Naruto in his six-tailed form.[2] However, it failed to contain Naruto after he transformed into his eight-tailed form as he broke out of it with brute force.[3] Despite this, Nagato implied that he would have to make an even larger sphere to compensate for Naruto's transformation.[4]
Other Media
Chibaku Tensei appears in Naruto Shippūden: Shinobi Rumble as one of Pain's skills, renamed "Six Paths Technique" (六道の術, Rikudō no Jutsu). In this variant, Pain generates a moderately sized sphere of debris overhead, then thrusts his arms downward, sending it crashing into the ground like a meteor. An enhanced, "Full Throttle" version of the technique called "Six Paths Technique: Collapse" (六道の術・崩壊, Rikudō no Jutsu: Hōkai) can also be performed.
In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, Pain uses the Chibaku Tensei to summon a whirlwind of boulders to protect himself against attacks from Naruto in his six-tailed transformation state. He can also launch the boulders individually as a form of attack.
In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Impact, Pain creates the planetary body and brings it down to his opponents. He also uses this as his Awakening, where he summons a whirlwind of boulders as a defensive system and an offensive system at the same time.
In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3, Nagato uses this technique to imprison his opponent, and then fires a chakra blast, and, going through its core, causes a massive explosion.

Thumbtack, in partnership with the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, has released Connecticut's results from the third annual Thumbtack.com Small Business Friendliness Survey. The study, drawing upon data from over 12,000 small business owners, provides new insights into state and local business environments across the nation.
"After a two-month survey of thousands of small business owners nationwide, Connecticut's small businesses have told us it is one of the least friendly states in the nation," says Jon Lieber, Chief Economist of Thumbtack. "Creating a business climate that is welcoming to small, dynamic businesses is more important than ever, and Connecticut's small businesses do not think the state has been doing a good job."
Some of the key findings for Connecticut include:

From last thread : (Re P/B) Like Skatak, I haven't noticed any desynchronization when watching them live but I have to watch the videos now. Their programs, especially the FD, still needs work, and they are well aware of that.
This is such a rough season: while they don't have to be worried about earning spots for France for the Olympics, since there's no third team right for whom it would be a shame if they missed out in 2014, everything skaters do this year is scrutinized and analyzed for how it will play out in Sochi. Ugh.
Was Alexis Miart the one who suffered an injury which forced them to withdraw from competitions last season or was it Tiffany who was injured?
Recap article on the Masters: http://web.icenetwork.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20121007&content_id=39560500&vkey=ice_news Are there any French articles about the competition?
Recap and some quotes from Brian and Florent at Passion Patinage after the LP: http://www.passion-patinage.com/?p=4577 Short summary of results of P/B, Brian, Florent with a few quotes from L'Equipe: http://www.lequipe.fr/Patinage-artistique/Actualites/Des-debuts-prometteurs/318011 Not directly about Masters, but an interview with Annick Dumont about training Brian: http://www.lanouvellerepublique.fr/.../Articles/2012/10/08/DUMONT-AUX-JO-AVEC-BRIAN Joubert is planning on staying with Dumont as a coach, though they are in contact with Guyon. One of the commentators during the Masters broadcast said that he's spending one day a week at Bercy, presumably with Katia Krier. Is Alex Zahradnicek planning on representing France? He was invited to compete at Masters. If so, what's the connection? (Isn't he American?)
L'Equipe also ran a short interview with Amodio, about his plans, working with Morozov and training alongside Takahashi. I think so. Wasn't he hanging around in Poitiers a few months back? This must have been in the works for a while, though what advantage there is for the FFSG in bringing him over, I have no idea.
It seems he's planning that, yes. The only connection so far, seems to be French former elite skater Vincent Restencourt who's his coach along with Priscilla Hill.
I love P/B's free dance music, this is so refreshing and modern, the Rolling Stones are probably one of the rare musics that is pretty "old" now but that is not has been. Something great can be done on this music. And P/B are probably a pair that can really connect to this music very well. The problem, IMO, from what at saw, is that the music choice and cuts are bad, well, not at my taste at least, and they don't bring any emotion. And it's only because the program is brand new and need adjustments, it's because the choreography and rythms changes don't bring any emotion. I'm afraid that with that kind of program judges will easily give the leads to americans or canadiens who will shine with their brilliant technic and precision with scirsors made choreography. On the contrary P/B's dance looks to messy to me. And I don't like the music cut, it starts with a weird rythm on wich they don't skate to the same bit, that makes it looks either slow (because of the music) or too fast (because of the moves that are too fast for the music). The slow part is nice though. And the last part, well, they missed it, so it's hard to get a real feeling about that. But overall, eventhough there is a lot of improvements possible, I'm afraid that there is actually too much improvement needed to make it works and it leaves the door opened for other pairs to pass them. To me all will depend on what others do, wether they do very well or not. But P/B didn't put all chances in their side.
Good to hear that Brian Joubidoo is staying with Annick (with a bit of support from Veronique) ... they had worked together a bit anyway during Salt Lake City (more than 10 years ago) so hopefully they will get on in the run-up to Sochi. Brian seems to be the sort of guy who needs some strong woman to give him a kick in the a** now and then (not that he is not motivated) and sort him out. His long programme this year (which I understand he wishes to keep for Sochi) is very beautiful and emotional ... wonder why people haven't commented on it. Go Brian
Maybe they haven't seen it yet? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Crlbwp16YJQ I like it as well. Finally a great program for him!
P/B's SD is vastly preferable to their FD And the costumes are much better, too. People haven't commented on Amodio's programs in this thread, either - and not everyone watches French Masters I like Joubert's LP and think it has a lot of potential. Obviously you have to edit out the mistakes and try to picture it with more difficult elements, but the program itself is lovely and better than the others he's had in recent years. I was pleasantly surprised that he chose to use only Time from the Inception soundtrack, as it's softer and less in-your-face than some of the other tracks.
It's a travesty people don't watch the French Masters! One of the most important competitions of the year!
They have worked together much more recently than that. In Courchevel in summer for instance. There, she was his only coach for a while. Don't remember if it was 2 or 3 summers ago, but it was a temporary solution during one of his umpteenth changes of coach. To be fair, until now, Masters weren't televised so it was hard for people to watch it other than live at the rink I assume the "most important competition of the year" is ironical It's a test, nothing else. Most of skaters are usually not ready (for the exception of Juniors who've already competed at JPGs).
P&B's SD is fab. The FD looked messy (the second half in particular), but it's early days yet. I do wish they'd pick either Sympathy for the Devil or Start Me Up and stick to it, because those ~10 seconds of Sympathy for the Devil sounded *very* random. I think I prefer Sympathy, but that might be because it's my favourite Stones song.
As usual I find their SDs superior to their FDs. One of my biggest problems with their FD is the soundtrack. I also find it both and that they chose to end their FD with Start Me Up. The way the music relates (or rather doesn't relate) to their movements makes it seem as if it's just background noise. I still think they'll skate it well by Worlds and the strength of their SD will help them.
They both appear to be strong women I always love seeing Annick's reactions at the kiss and cry ... and her commentary for France Television is quite good also ... she's v. supportive of the skaters and always shouts "ALLEZ, BRIAN" ... "ALLEZ, VANESSA", "ALLEZ ALLEZ" And the cameraman always seems to love her.
But that doesn't mean she is near the skaters during their preparation, and that doesn't mean she is able to find the best in each skater, or doing the best choices for them. Really, Veronique Guyon was the only one who tried to kick Brian's ass.
^^ That. And he really needs some serious to work properly and sometimes just to work. Guyon feared no one and wasn't close to anyone in particular at FFSG, so she had her hands free (as much as you can have your hands free with FFSG, that is !) She is a strong opinionated woman and so is Dumont. What happen behind closed doors must sometimes be epic !
I usually love their FDs too (ok, not the one from last year, but anyone doing Walk Like An Egyptian-arms to middle eastern music grates on my nerves like nails against a blackboard), but I'm not convinced by the final music cuts. I found Start Me Up at the end a little odd too, but I'm going to take it on good faith it's on purpose. Also, I don't know who did that People are Strange cover, but it sure wasn't the The Door's original.
P/B's SD is amazing. simply a masterpiece. It can and will compete with any other SD. Second to none , I doubt that any other pair can/will do a better job. As for the FD - not perfect (yet) , but we need to see how the judges will look at it. The music transitions are working, they are not bad at all, the chemistry will come, and it will be perfect, we can trust them.... Good luck
I agree with all of this . At the end of the short dance I thought maybe they had run out of steam a little as the music seemed to be running ahead of them but I'm sure with practice that will come. It sure is original and very exciting .

Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation

- What are stem cells?
- What do stem cells do?
- What is the value of stem cells for transplantation?
- Where do the stem cells come from for transplantation?
- How are the stem cells removed from the blood?
- How is the patient "prepared" for the transplantation?
- How is the transplantation actually done?
What is peripheral blood stem cell transplantation?
Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation is a new technique in which stem cells are obtainedfrom a patient's blood and used in bone marrow transplantation.
What are stem cells?
Stem cells are small, round cells with a squat nucleus and scant surrounding cytoplasm. Although unremarkable in appearance, stem cells can perform what have been called "acts of biological resurrection."
What do stem cells do?
Whereas other types of cells in the body have a limited lifespan and die after dividing their endowed number of times, a stem cell can reproduce forever. The stem cell is immortal (in cellular terms). A stem cell can forgo immortality and differentiate. By doing so, it can turn into an ordinary blood cell, like a red blood cell (an erythrocyte), a white blood cell (a leukocyte), or a large cell (a megakaryocyte) that fragments into the platelets needed for blood to clot.
What is the value of stem cells for transplantation?
A relatively small number of stem cells can miraculously repopulate the whole bone marrow, provide an endless supply of stem cells, reconstitute the entire repertory of blood cells, and restore that portion of the immune system.
Where do the stem cells come from for transplantation?
Under normal circumstances, stem cells are rarely seen in the blood stream. To recruit enough stem cells into the blood, stem cells are lured out of the bone marrow by a special regimen of drugs and thereby coaxed into entering the peripheral blood (the blood stream).

Jackson seeks first win, while Latos goes for sweep
Cubs' right-hander looks to rebound vs. Reds after rough start
The Reds may have a couple of players struggling at the plate, but something will have to give when they come up against Edwin Jackson on Sunday, with the right-hander still searching for his first win of the year and coming off what he called "one of the worst starts of his career."
Jackson's last outing resulted in a season-high 13 runs and 17 hits for the visiting Padres at Wrigley Field, who routed Jackson and the Cubs, 13-7. Now, the Reds -- who secured their first road series victory of the season on Saturday -- get their shot at Jackson.
"It's a test of character," Jackson said after his last outing. "Clearly, it hasn't been what I wanted to do. It's a long season. I'll definitely continue to work and get back to where I need to be to finish the season strong."
The righty is 0-4 with a 6.27 ERA this season. But a handful of Reds hitters he'll be facing on Sunday -- regulars Zack Cozart, Jay Bruce and Todd Frazier are all hitting below .260 -- have endured some troubles, too.
"We've got quite a few guys struggling," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "They're either struggling with not getting hits or not getting hits with runners in scoring position, or struggling with home runs. We're in pretty good position considering the guys that are struggling. They're not going to struggle forever."
Cincinnati will need a few guys to pull through if they are to earn their first road sweep of the young season. With Saturday's 6-4 win, they secured their first series win away from Great American Ball Park. The Reds are still just 5-10 away from home.
The Cubs are 5-9 at Wrigley Field this season, where Jackson also faced San Diego this week. He signed a four-year, $52-million contract before this season, but insists the pressure of that deal has not weighed on him during his early-season struggles.
"I don't feel like it's pressure," Jackson said. "I feel like I'm just not pitching like I know I can pitch, whether it's execution of pitches, or making people hit the ball where there are fielders. It's been one thing or another. It hasn't been one particular thing."
Cubs fans weren't happy with Jackson's outing against San Diego and let him know.
"It's not the first time I've heard it," Jackson said. "It's the same crowd if you go out and start pitching better, they're cheering. The boos, I'd probably boo myself, as well. I don't blame them."
Reds: Latos riding high
Jackson's opponent on Sunday, Reds' right-hander Mat Latos, has been solid to start the season and will take a 17-innings scoreless streak into Sunday's series finale.
Latos came out of his last outing after six scoreless innings and 91 pitches because he felt some tightness in his right hip. But Latos said Friday that he will be ready for Sunday's outing.
"It feels good," Latos said. "I've been throwing and doing my running and lifting with bands to not put any pressure on it, just to be sure. But it's been fine."
Latos is the first Reds pitcher to throw quality starts in each of his first six appearances since Mario Soto did it in 1985. No Cincinnati pitcher has pitched seven quality starts to begin the season since Joe Price had eight straight to start the 1983 campaign.
Cubs: DeJesus catching up
David DeJesus is hitting .333 with six doubles, a triple, four home runs and eight RBIs in 21 games since April 9.
He began the season with a .095 average (2-for-21) after his first seven games.
• The Cubs have lost nine games this year in which they were leading at some point.
Worth noting
• Reds catcher Devin Mesoraco is expected to be back behind the plate on Sunday after Corky Miller started Friday and Saturday.
• The Cubs are in the middle of their first four-team homestand since Aug. 25-Sept. 3, 2009.
• With a home run off Jeff Samardzija on the first pitch of Saturday's game, Reds outfielder Shin-Soo Choo has seven career leadoff home runs.

XM Onyx Written By Richard, Phoenix AZ on Sunday, July 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am really enjoying my New Onyx XM Radio and all of the Features of the Unit !!!! 24/7 Music to my liking with no commercials !!!! Being able to go directly to any Channel without having to scan & this unit is a neat & clean piece of hardware that attaches neatly in my car or can be a mobile unit in my home or at work !!! I like how versatile it is as well !!1 Pros: small & compact but still very easy to operate & see clearly to go through all of the motions ..... Cons: I have no negative statements about this wonderful XM Radio !!!!
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Woodbridge, VA on Monday, July 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Only had a few weeks, but already like it. Simple installation and easy to use. Installed in a Mini, hardwired and clean. The size of the unit helped in fitting it in a nice snug, safe location where could not be easily seen or easily removed by unwanted parties.
XM Onyx Written By LenetteE, Helena, MT on Saturday, July 13, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased the XM Onyx with both the vehicle and home kits. I found the vehicle kit to have a lot of wires and such that don't give it a clean appearance in my car. I can not use either mounting bracket systems (cords to cumbersome... for only be 3 looks like i'm wired up for life support) so will modify something. Overall I like the XM Onyx and have purchased a home systems for it. Pros: Small and portable. Cons: Sometimes no reception under trees so parking in the shade listen to music is iffy. (Also reception issues when driving on heavily treed streets.) Power charger larger than expected considering today's technology. Do not like how either mounting system fits in my Xterra Pro4x.
Nice Set UP Written By C.J., San Diego, CA on Friday, July 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased an open box unit. Install was a breeze, after install I noticed a clear line from top to bottom on the display screen. Contacted CRUTCHFIELD a new unit was sent within a week. User friendly sound quality is great. Great alternative if your not looking to invest more on an XM ready unit. Pros: Easy of Install, User Friendly, Sound Quality.
xm onyx Written By josephl, albuquerque nm on Wednesday, July 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) GREAT Pros: nice place to shop at Cons: none
xm onyx Written By preacher, reno, tx. 75462 on Sunday, June 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) great addition to my wife's 2004 sienna. she's happy, everything is good in Texas. Pros: top quality, great sound, easy to install, and Crutchfield is super to work with. Cons: none
Very Nice :) Written By Zman, El Paso Texas on Thursday, June 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love the device and the quality of audio. Is very easy to install. I'm not a big fan of the 12v adapter. Pros: Easy portable installation , great audio quality very easy to navigate control and activation was simple. A very affordable price. Cons: You may wanna buy a better car kit if you don't like wires hanging on your dash.
Excellent Written By Hodag, Missouri on Saturday, June 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Crutchfield's service was great. Fast shipping. Product as represented. Totally satisfied. Pros: Everything Cons: Nothing
Nice xm radio Written By Bgddyal, Virginia beach on Saturday, June 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Nice and easy to use and installed very fast Pros: It's all good Cons: None
Nice, but car kit could be better Written By BrianW, Philadelphia, PA on Saturday, June 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) As far an XM receiver goes, the Onyx does the job well at a good price point. My main complaint is that the included car kit does not include the items necessary for a clean and custom-looking installation. The car kit comes with a 12v adapter that plugs into the cigarette lighter/aux power point, a dash mount, and a cable to plug into your car stereo's aux-in jack (miniplug). That's fine for a quick and portable install, but if you want it to look professionally done and clean, you'll want to buy the hard-wire kit and the FM modulator, both of which mount behind the dash and keep you from having cords all over your dashboard. So, plan on spending extra $ at least to get the parts for a clean install. XM/Audiovox should provide a kit option that includes these items instead of the removable plug accessories. Pros: Size, mounting cradle, XM functionality, price Cons: Car mount kits leaves a lot to be desired
Awsome product Written By Ray, Prairie grove, Arkansas on Tuesday, May 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was apprehensive about putting a portable item in my baby. But it looked pretty good after I attached it to my dash. And it sounds really cool. Pros: Sound quality is great. Radio has a very nice look. Easy installation, and did I say it sounds great. Cons: The only con I could think about was it is not a factory installed system but that would have cost a lot more than I payed for this system.
XM ONYX Written By Frank S, Leesville, IN on Monday, May 13, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) excellent Pros: Sirius satellite is the shit Cons: kinda high dollar
XM Onyx Written By Darryl, Hagerhill Ky on Sunday, May 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This radio is easy to hook up and very simple to operate. Pros: ease of operation Cons: did not care for mounting brackets but one of my old suction mounts from my gps worked nicely
Install XM Onyx into a 2002 Camry Written By Richard K., Gallatin , Tenn on Saturday, May 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great System , great value ,,easy install Pros: Great system for the value Cons: none
Great improvement Written By Lew M, Woodbridge, Va on Saturday, April 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my fourth XM receiver. The previous three were Delphis which showed signs of failure 5 minutes after the warrantees ran out...poor soldered connections, I think. How 20th century! The new Onyx, made by Audiovox, I believe, is lovely to look at, has a solid feel and is worlds beyond the Delphis in operation. So far it sounds great.
Satellite Radio Written By Henry M, Novato, CA on Friday, April 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fifty dollars well spent.
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Mitchell on Monday, April 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Happy happy happy
Great Satellite Radio Written By Tony, Los Angeles, CA on Sunday, April 07, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great replacement radio and easy to use. Activation from Sirius was excellent. I was listening to my favorite music within a few minutes. Pros: This unit docks with my Sirius Speaker Boom box. Easy to use. Comes with either a car kit or home kit. I chose the car kit and it plays great on the road. Antenna reception is very good and sound from my Bose system speakers is awesome. Cons: You have to get a cassette adapter to play it through your car system. However, it cost only $3.50 and shipping was free. Mounting the unit in the car can be difficult if you plan on using the screws in your dash board. I plan on using Velcro strips instead of the screws.
Excellent Written By Justin, Bloomingdale, NJ on Sunday, March 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This kit is excellent. Easy, ten minute install, and great reception. Wish I purchased one a long time ago! Pros: Easy install, included everything needed Cons: None
Not bad Written By Charles, Dixon, Mo on Saturday, February 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very nice little set up. I originally got this because the only decent rock station in my area folded up and became a sports talk station. With a 40 min drive to work this wasn't working so I decided to give Sirius/Xm a chance. I wish I had done it years ago! This little gadget is truly plug and play. The antenna cord was thin enough I ran it through the 3rd brake light fixture on my truck. Set up was easy. My only complaint is Ford trucks all have the round vents now so the mounts that came with it were useless to me. So I ordered a goose neck mount that bolts to the seat floor bolt. Perfect fit and its out of the way of the airbags. Good sound through the AUX connector on the factory stereo. With the rebate you really can't go wrong on price. 4 stars only because I can't give 4.75 stars. Would like to see better mounting options. Pros: Inexpensive, small, easy to set up. Cons: Mounting hardware was a little lacking. Probably fine for most installers.
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, NC on Sunday, December 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installation was very easy, and a much cheaper alternative to adding xm to my factory head unit. I am currently transmitting to my radio via 3.5 mm jack so I do not know how well the FM transmitter works. Size is great, very compact even with mounting kit. Multicolor screen is nice for matching to my cars red interior lighting. Pros: Size, sound quality, ease of installation, cost
Great radio, but rebate didn't work. Written By Doc, Old Bethpage, NY on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The radio is great for the price. Only 10 presets, but for me that's fine, since I'm only interested in the music stations, but more presets would have been better. It's nice and compact so it fit exactly where I wanted it on the ashtray of my 3 series. Reception is OK, but the radio requires a pretty strong signal or else it cuts out briefly. Not a whole lot worse that the SX radio on the wife's car, so not a big deal. Installation was a breeze, since it only required a plug-in to the cigarette lighter, running the antenna wire and the wire to the AUX jack. The biggest pain, as anticipated, was hiding and tacking the wires to that they're out of sight with no chance of coming loose. Also not a real problem. The whole thing took maybe 30 minutes. My only real quarrel is with the claim for the rebate. Since I bought the unit on-line 3 on 9/27, it didn't arrive until 10/3 or so. Since the rebate timed out on 9/30 there was really NO chance that I could apply the rebate. And both Crutchfield AND XM said they couldn't help. The extra 50 bucks off would have been nice, but even so, the price is so reasonable and the unit so good that even without the rebate that it was no big deal. Pros: Compact, nice looking, good reception. Easy to install. Cons: Only 10 presets. More would have been nice. Rebate of no real value to me since I ordered the unit so close to the closing date for the rebate. More cooperation from either Crutchfield OR XM would have been appreciated, but since the radio is so inexpensive, it's not a major issue. Just check closely on the dates of any rebate offers in these ads to be sure that you can use it. Crutchfield ads actually include the rebate off their price, so Caveat Emptor. Crutchfield response on Wednesday, October 17, 2012 Thanks for your review. You are eligible for the rebate. We asked our Customer Support team to get in touch and help you submit your claim.
XM Onyx - Nice Written By Todd F, Ontario, NY on Monday, October 15, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy to setup, easy to use. This is my first dock style XM. The buttons are small but in my opinion a non issue. I personally prefer a head unit with a XM mode, however this is a bit more convenient since I can bring it in the house and listen. Pros: Easy Set up Easy to Use Cons: Non currently found
Not as good as Old Ones Written By Anonymous, New York on Thursday, September 27, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Small but gets job done. Pros: Size is small to fit in car. Easy to hook up Cons: Pre sets are too close. If you don't feel or look directly at them your lost.No rewind and FF feature like old units. That was a plus on older ones.Doesn't display pre set number, only station number.
AWESOME !! Written By Brian H, Fort Worth, TX on Friday, September 21, 2012 Nothing short of amazing !! I cannot believe I have been a cheapo for so long and have not purchased this before. I spend alot of hours in the car and this product has super clear CD quality sound, the mounting works very well, easy to use, awesome selection of stations. I just can't say enough good about it, works everywhere I travel! No more searching endlessly for a good station in an area that your not familar with. Mounting was a snap -easy. By the way, the antenna works on the dash too - I bought it while on a trip and just threw the antenna on the dash - worked great. Sometimes going under underpasses it lost signal, but for like a second or so. I have mounted the antenna correctly on the outside now and I rarely (if ever) lose signal. Tons of music stations and Blue Collar radio is awesome - I have cracked up for hours listening to that. Take it from me and I am a cheapo, this is no waste of money, and I feel like an idiot for not purchasing this 10 years ago. Well better late than never right. Hats off to XMSirius - you have made my endless travels in the hair MUCH more pleasurable. Pros: Everything. Cons: None
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Atlanta on Tuesday, September 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I like it, the product itself is simple and easy to use. Very easy install, didn't even have to run the antenna outside the vehicle. Wish there were more talk shows other than Howard Stern but that's not Crutchfield's fault. But it. Pros: Easy install, easy to use, good value, good customer service, fast shipping, well made, no issues to speak of Cons: None as of now. (Using product daily for 2+ weeks)
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Lakeland, FL on Wednesday, September 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy, Easy, Easy to install...it replaced an earlier XM radio......a lot of improvements have been made! I didn't even have to replace the antenna, all wiring was the same as before! Pros: Easy installation Cons: none
GREAT PRODUCT Written By Tom R, Bossier City, LA on Saturday, August 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) For the size, this thing is unbelievable. Has more preset options than most car stereos have. I am extremely pleased with this Onyx and would recommend it to anyone. The price was also very pleasing. Just wish that Sirius XM would realize that it would be better to have 100 million users at $10 a month than 22 million at $20 a month. They are losing a lot of business due to their pricing structure. Pros: Size and features, plus sound quality using the aux input option. Could not be better. Cons: Pesky wires - but they can be easily bundled up and concealed with heat shrink tubing. My wife just leaves the unit on the passenger side floor, out of the way until she needs to change stations.
XM Onyx Written By GregW, Kansas City on Thursday, August 16, 2012 Nice radio. Not too difficult to install. The one serious flaw is that the mounting bracket is complete junk. It's flimsy and lightweight. What's really annoying is the slop in the mount, the radio has several degrees of rotation which makes operating the controls less precise than it should be.
XM ONYX Radio Written By MS, KERNERSVILLE,NC on Monday, July 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Enjoying my xm onyx so far. Easy to read and operate. My last radio lasted almost ten years,lighted readout lasted 6 yrs.Hope this one last longer. Pros: Easy to read display,much better than the audiovox I had to replace it with and at a better price. Cons: Don't care much for the adhesive swivel mount. not much to it,kinda cheap. not so sure it'll last all that long. need a mount that is both flexible and extends further out.
Awesome Written By johnc, KY on Monday, July 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy to use and install. Takes just a second to move from my truck to my car to my boat. First time satellite radio user, hooked for life Pros: Easy install Versatile Cons: None
Works well Written By DavidO, St. Louis,MO on Sunday, May 20, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Replaced a broken Roady with this, the Onyx has a better display and seems to have better sound quality using the line out to my car stereo. Only concern is the antenna connection which seems to be identical to the Roady and that's what failed on it.
XM Onyx Written By AL, HOUSTON, TX. on Monday, October 31, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy to install. Great sound. Easy to use . And a GREAT PRICE!!! Pros: This product was easy to install and sounds great !
So far, so good Written By JoeM, Salem, NH on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The only thing missing is a remote. No problems so far.
XM Onyx Written By Dennis K, Vermont on Tuesday, July 05, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very pleased with this unit. Works great in car and at home. Good reception even in our rural area.
Excellent xm radio! Written By GlennT, Lafayette, LA on Friday, May 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love my new XM Onyx. It works perfectly in my Jaguar XK Coupe. Installation through a recommended Crutchfield advisor was on time and completely undetectable!
XM Onyx Written By Carl, Saratoga Spings, NY on Monday, May 16, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The radio itself is great. The display is very easy read and functions are logical and easy to understand. The only cons are the dashboard mount is kind of cheap, and not very sturdy. I have a smooth ridding car but the radio bounces and makes it sometimes hard to read the display when your car is moving. Also, when you push the buttons it does not hold it sturdy and comes loose after a while.
XM Onyx Written By Rich C, Massachusetts on Saturday, May 14, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this xm radio after checking reviews. Radio rather quick to install in car with no problems. Great product and quick delivery from Crutchfield.
It's Decent Written By Eric, CA on Friday, April 22, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I recently bought this XM radio after having an AudioVox Xpress. The Onyx is horrible compared to the AudioVox. Sure it matches my interior a lot better than the plain 'ol Audiovox but where are all the features??? The Onyx is decent for a first XM radio but the Audiovox has so many features I wish the Onyx had. The number one thing I don't like about this radio is this radio is that there is no scroll wheel. It makes it so much easier to change the stations, also the numbers in the front are preset channels, you have to select the "direct mode" first and then push "8". The Audeovox can beep when your favorite song comes on, not so on the Onyx. This unit cannot block out unwanted channels either. Just a heads up for those who are looking into this unit.
Works as advertised. Written By fevans, Norman, OK on Friday, February 11, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I needed an inexpensive receiver, this was it. Installed in a '95 Chev. Blazer, I have since ordered the FM adapter to eliminate the constant finding of an unused FM station. I don't have any complaints, other that the mount is a little flimsy, there is too much play in the plastic parts, wobbles a little. I kind of wonder when the mount is going to break. The receiver is very easy to use, the price was right. The antenna was easy to install on this vehicle, this should have been the most difficult part of the installation of the unit, and that work was very easy, the entire install took about an hour.
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Connecticut on Friday, February 04, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased the ONYX. Love it. using XM service and can't tell you how much better it is then searching for station while on the road.
okay product Written By solo413, bear, de on Friday, January 28, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this unit for my wifes infiniti m35 and it appeared to be a decent system at first but there was constant static and always looking for a clear station to turn to became rather annoying for her. so we decided to cancal the subscription and remove the unit out of her car. Overall the unit has a slim design and fits nice with most interiors but this just wasnt what she was looking for. I would however recommend it, if you would like to try out xm in your car and you dont want to waste a lot of money and time on installation.
XM Onyx Written By Ann, Texarkana, Tx on Monday, January 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was very pleased with the price, quality and delivery time. The option for free shipping was very important.
Another winner Written By UncleLeroy, Albuquerque, NM on Monday, January 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the third XM receiver I've owned and the best so far. The display is great and while I use it exclusively at home, I have the option of putting it in my pickup truck which doesn't have a satellite radio receiver. This little unit a clearly a winner and the price is great too. For home use there is a speaker dock that makes this part of a complete package.
Perfect! Written By KenM, Jackson, MS on Saturday, December 18, 2010 Excellent! Get wonderful reception. Plugged into my auxillary port in car, and sounds perfect! Get a few hundred stations with crystal clarity. This is the perfect driving companion at an excellent price. Very easy to install. Ran the antenna through my fold- down back seat up through the trunk. Thinking of getting the homedock so can listen in car and in home. Gets all sports--NBA, MLB, NFL, and NHL. Better than TV!
XM Onyx Written By John, Beggs, OK on Saturday, November 13, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This product is excellent. Does not have all the bells and whistles some products have but is an excellent value. I wish it had a remote. I use it only in a vehicle and it would be great to have a remote at hand to make changes. The service is excellent. I would recommend this product and Crutchrfield to everyone.
Skip this one Written By Darkwind, Eagle, CO on Friday, November 05, 2010 This unit was purchased to replace an old Roady XT. The Onyx is vastly inferior to the old Roady XT. Reception from unit to vehicle radio is horrible. Audio quality is worse than terrestrial radio. If you buy this for a vehicle, pony up for the antenna cable adapter. More if you own a Volkswagen.
Fits the bill Written By cbro, Tallahassee on Thursday, September 30, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) 15 minute install, up and playing in no time. Sure there are more expensive systems, but for less than a 100.00, it fits the bill. Wish the presets were a little larger, but other than that, it's a keeper.
XM Onyx Written By Anonymous, Atlanta, GA on Thursday, September 09, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) this is a wonderful unit. Very easy to use
Rebate? Written By Barry, NC on Sunday, August 29, 2010 Nice little radio, decent price, very good customer service from Crutchfields. However, the rebate offer is VERY misleading. It comes from XM and only applies to new customers, IF they subscribe to the Deluxe Subscription Package, AFTER they have had the package and paid for it for 60 days and then you have to get a new VISA card in order to use it. This should be noted on the product page.
Andy Written By Andy, Virginia on Wednesday, August 25, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Onyx could not be any easier to install. It works great, easy to operate and simple to set-up. The only negative is the cheap flimsy bracket you cannot tighten enough to hold it in position when you hit a bump. They could have spent a little more on a better quality bracket. I am on the road a lot and have 2 car kits in my vehicles. I could not be in my vehicle that much without XM.
Definitely Worth It Written By Anonymous, Houston, TX on Friday, August 13, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Set up was easy. hardest part was mounting the antenna. The rest takes about 5 min. My truck has no AUX. So, i used the FM setting. Signal was full and music came in pretty clear. Music could be a little louder, but maybe it's the use of the FM connection. Overall, a great purchase! Would purchase again.(1 star deducted for horrid customer service hired by XM. USE ONLINE ACTIVATION! Don't even bother calling the 1-800 #. )
Good Stuff Written By Anonymous, Boston Ma on Thursday, March 25, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy to use interface, menus and buttons. The display is large and bright. You can choose from a variety of backround colors as well which is kinda neat. Easy to install, I use a 1/8 stereo cable (included) to the aux input on my headunit. Works beautifully. The adhesive backing for the mount was predictably useless, but a couple of self-tappers and a little gorilla glue fixed that right up. (remove the backing entirely from the mount before applying other glue). I was impressed with the range of motion and seemingly sturdy construction of the dash mount. We'll see, it's only been about two weeks. Only one real con for me at least, the rest are minor things. It doesn't come with an auto-off feature, meaning that if you plug it into an unswitched 12v outlet or cig lighter (common in older vehicles, i.e. my 1999 F150), it doesn't turn off when you turn the car off. My free sat radio from XM had the feature that it would automatically turn off after an hour. I would think this could be a relatively easy feature to program in. It does have a power button but it's a little obnoxious to have press that every time I get in and out. And if I forget, I could be breaking out the jumper cables in the morning. Other than that inconvienence it's a great little box, even though I didn't get the rebate with it, was still a good alternative to the XM Mini Tuner.
Easy Install Written By Craig, Sturgis, MI on Sunday, March 07, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased to install in my 2007 Chrysler Pacifica. I also installed the optional XM Plug & Play, and from start to finish routing the antenna, removing the radio, installing the FM Modulator, reinstalling the radio and mouting the OnyX, it was just barely under one hour! Couldn't believe it, thought it would take at least 2 hours. Had a little trouble with activating it, but called XM and found that they were doing maintenance on their system, but as soon as they finished, I turned on the radio, went in the house to reactivate it online, and when I made it back to the car, it was completely activated! Nice and simply to use, and great price also!
XM ONYX Written By Tommy, Barnegat, NJ on Wednesday, January 13, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent XM radio. I purchased this item and installed it in my 2008 Toyota Matrix. This is a simple XM radio, easy to use. I also recommend purchasing the FM direct adapter and no professional installation required. All you do is disconnect your antenna wire from the back of your car radio, connect it to the FM modulator and connect the FM modulator wire to the back of the radio where the antenna wire was. That simple process provides static free listening..... Highly recommend doing this for superior uninterrupted music listening.

It opens to a page of animals, and then every subsequent page asks 'who's hiding?' or 'who's crying?' or 'who has horns?'
She has the book memorized. She'll tell you the that bear is angry even before you turn to the 'who's angry' page.
She's right; the bear can be quite a scowler.
It's a great book.
And it made a great cake.
She loved it, and pointed to all the animals, naming them and their book-identified attributes. Hi, rhino! The rhino has horns. The bear's not angry! The bunny's not crying!
The girl loves everything pink, so I dyed the batter as bright as I dared.
We sang Happy Birthday to her and then her best friend and a heap of family looked on as she blew out her candle (with her sister's help) and stuck her finger right in the frosting.
She was a very happy birthday girl. Oh, and in case you're wondering?

Since last season, Maggette went public about his disagreement with Dunleavy couple of times. Going against your coach in public is BIG NO in any sports. Maggette didn't handle his situation well once he was activated from injured list. Since then, he's been paying the price for his off-court mistakes.

To go full crab is to go all out while drinking. Think of it as an overdrive mode. Inspired by Jackie Chan's crab-based drinking game in Shanghai Noon.
"I'm so hungover today. I went full crab last night: spent £80, got kicked out of the club for trying to attack the bouncer with my imaginary pincers and woke up spooning a traffic cone."

Surging Tigers usher contending A's into den
Griffin looks to contain hosts, who go for fourth straight behind Anibal
In a potential preview for the playoffs, the Tigers welcome the Athletics for a four-game series on Monday at Comerica Park. Detroit is coming off a sweep, while the A's have lost four of their last five games.
A.J. Griffin will toe the rubber for Oakland, looking for his first win since July 29. It will be his first start against the Tigers since pitching Game 4 of the American League Division Series last October.
Griffin has allowed a Major League-leading 30 home runs this season, and the walks are suddenly piling up, too, with 15 issued in his last three starts.
"Trying to be more careful, not give into guys as much," said Griffin. "That's where the walks are coming from."
The Tigers will send out Anibal Sanchez, who leads the AL with a 2.45 ERA and has shaved nearly half a run off his ERA since the All-Star break, allowing eight runs on 36 hits over 47 2/3 innings. He gave up one run on six hits over 6 2/3 innings in his last start but was stuck with a no-decision.
"I didn't have anything special today," Sanchez said. "It was more my command. I think every pitch was working today."
Tigers: Iglesias misses second game
Jose Iglesias was out of the Tigers' lineup for the second straight game on Sunday as he continues to deal with soreness above his left elbow after he was hit by a pitch in Friday's game.
Iglesias couldn't bend his arm on Saturday while battling some swelling and soreness. The shortstop is batting .454 with two doubles and three runs in his last six games.
• Alex Avila was back behind the plate on Sunday during a rehab game with Triple-A Toledo as he recovers from a concussion. Avila had a single in three at-bats and scored a run Sunday. He served as the Mud Hens' designated hitter on Saturday, going 0-for-3. He caught three innings on Thursday, but he left the game with a headache.
Athletics: Slumping Cespedes gets breather
Yoenis Cespedes has been struggling at the plate for the past week and was given the day off Sunday.
"He's just having a little tough time right now," manager Bob Melvin said. "When you're grinding as hard as some guys are at this point of time in the season, and you're struggling some, sometimes a day off -- mentally just as much physically -- you can benefit by it."
Melvin said one of Cespedes' issues is that he's been overaggressive at times and pitchers are adjusting to him. In his past six games, Cespedes is 4-for-26 (.154) with one walk and 10 strikeouts.
• Melvin said he expects catcher Stephen Vogt to be back in the lineup on Monday after sitting out the past two games. Melvin decided to give Vogt some rest after taking some foul balls in the previous Seattle series.
Worth noting
• Seth Smith is batting .375 with two home runs against Sanchez in 16 career at-bats.
• Since returning from the disabled list, Omar Infante is hitting .388 with six runs scored and three RBIs in 12 games.
