Jose Reyes: "Playing on the turf every day is going to beat up your body"
Feb 27, 2014, 11:19 AM EDT
Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com wrote a lengthy Jose Reyes article about how the Blue Jays shortstop plans to be healthier and more productive and more active on the bases this season. Pretty standard "spring training optimism" stuff, but it includes Reyes' thoughts about playing on Toronto's turf and they were pretty interesting:
The 30-year-old said "it wasn't good" when asked to describe his experience with the turf, but then also quickly pointed out that despite all of the preseason concerns, his hamstrings never became an issue and the ankle injury happened away from Rogers Centre. …
"People know that playing on the turf every day is tough," Reyes said. "But as a player, it is what it is. We have to play in there, so you have to find a way … so you can stay on the field and adjust to the turf. It's not in anybody's mind. Playing on the turf every day is going to beat up your body."
Reyes missed 69 games, attempted just 21 steals, and perhaps most tellingly hit zero triples after topping double-digit triples in seven of the past eight seasons, including leading his league four times. However, it should also be noted that he essentially matched his career numbers offensively when healthy enough to be in the Blue Jays' lineup. His bat wasn't the issue.

Doesn't help when a few inches under that turf is concrete
- brentsalish - Feb 27, 2014 at 11:24 AM
Played there. Elway's right about the concrete. Since they blew up the Kingdome, Rogers is the hardest field in baseball. Even the seams in the carpet can trip you up.
- metroplexsouthsider - Feb 28, 2014 at 2:27 PM
Makes Ozzie Smith's career look even better, given that much of his tenure at Busch was when the Cards played on turf, not grass.
- themanytoolsofignorance - Feb 27, 2014 at 11:28 AM
This guy is the key to blue jays defence this season. On that turf balls will get on him so much faster than on grass. He'll need to adjust – play deeper, cheat to the batter's hitting side, know the pitch going in – if he's going to really impact the defence. He can do it. i watched him for years on the Mets. a simply outstanding, thinking, savvy, intelligent short stop. That elite bat of his is pure sugar on top. A full season of Reyes will see some of that bloated staff ERA drop. A full season of Reyes though is not something that happens too often and that is a pity
- flyinhighwithvick - Feb 27, 2014 at 11:36 AM
People actually lost their lives on the old turf in Veterans Stadium.
- metroplexsouthsider - Feb 28, 2014 at 2:27 PM
Ask Michael Irvin.
- cshearing - Feb 27, 2014 at 11:48 AM
The grass is coming. Unfortunately, it will not be until 2017, when the CFL Argos' lease runs out at the Rogers Centre.
- hammyofdoom - Feb 27, 2014 at 11:52 AM
I'm sure that when Jose Reyes mentioned "Playing here is going to beat up your body" There was some red flashing light with an alarm straight out of a cheesy Sci-Fi that went off in the Blue Jays front office. "Total Reyes destruction in t-minus…"
- sdelmonte - Feb 27, 2014 at 12:05 PM
It's sad that his body keeps breaking down. And less than ideal that he ended up in Toronto. But no one forced him to not have a no-trade clause. An object lesson for free agents with bad hammies, I suppose.
- proudlycanadian - Feb 27, 2014 at 12:22 PM
The ankle injury did not happen in Toronto, but obviously still affected his play once he returned to action.
- jcmeyer10 - Feb 27, 2014 at 12:23 PM
Thanks Torii Hunter!
- kingjoe1 - Feb 27, 2014 at 12:25 PM

Didn't know Shea Stadium had turf when he played….or, didn't play….there.
- flickflint - Feb 27, 2014 at 2:22 PM
Good thing he doesn't play on turf everday

Less excuses, more games played plz.

I read an interesting piece in TechCrunch coined, "Twitter Dominates Live TV Because Social TV Is Failing," from Somrat Niyogi, the CEO of Miso - one of the earliest American startups in the Social TV arena.
"Why should a user open up YOUR app versus the other billion apps out there around TV?", writes Niyogi. "... (there have) been more than 100 second screen apps developed (and this doesn't even include the one-off iPhone apps that have been created by the networks)."
I find the timing of the headline a tad ironic as zeebox has swept in from the UK and did a couple of enormous deals over the past few weeks that have pretty much planted Social TV right on American soil to stay - stepping right over the likes of Getglue, Miso, Shazam and all the other American 'incumbents'.
Perhaps one of the reasons for the successful deals zeebox has put together has been the fact that Twitter is deeply integrated into the platform - as is Facebook. But my gut feeling is... the real attraction and USP are the zeetags.
If content is king, as they say in the TV industry, context is the crown. Watercoolers have been around for generations - and they are largely digital now - but the missing link, I think, is the ability to provide meaningful context if you want to solve the consumer problem. Who's in this, what's being said about it, why should I watch it? Why do I have to look this stuff up? Discussion, dissemination and discovery are all hugely important but great Social TV user experience (UX) needs great context.
I have been writing about temporal metadata around TV for about a year now - and I believe it could be a 'Google Adword' type play for TV. And that's why zeebox is able to put together the deals it has been. No one else is making that level of play - zeebox is now ingesting all of UK TV and the TV streams of their American partners in real time, using ACR and other technologies to strip metadata, then linking those tagged properties to Twitter, News, Wikipedia and creating new forms of tCommerce. Major TV industry players are partnering in the US because they can't afford not to bank on the possibility that zeebox may have nailed it.
The back story on zeebox and their zeetags has it's roots in the BBC which has been playing with this technology for some time - and has had a wide-open metadata ecosystem since 2005. The brainy BBC continues to research temporal metadata following up on aspects of the MyMedia and NoTube projects, with academic institutions in Europe.
The CTO and co-Founder of zeebox Anthony Rose built the BBC iPlayer a few years ago and certainly tapped all the brilliant intel available (as well as his own ideas) to set the stage for what appears to be, a prime example of successful Social TV (if you look at deals as benchmarks).
Niyogi writes on:
What We Are Doing Wrong
We make it about the people in business, not a business for people. As an industry, we're trying to capitalize on a business proposition, not a consumer proposition. Yes, people have another screen up while they are watching TV. But the moment we stop trying to leverage the second screen real estate, that is the moment we are heading in the right direction.
We need to stop telling and start asking. Right now, second screen apps are saying, "Here are other ways you can use your smartphone while you watch TV!" But is anybody really asking, "What do people really want to do when they watch TV?" I can guarantee that from my experience, I've found that regular users don't care about this whole two-screen, synchronous, social TV phenomenon.
Presently, the global Games industry is worth around $70 billion for 2012. That's twice the size of the Music industry, twice the size of the book industry, and three times the size of the movie industry. We have Generation G (gamers) who are now in their forties who have grown up engaging with content. Over 100,000 people play along with The Million Pound Drop live on Friday nights in the UK, and over 600,000 downloaded The Voice of Holland out of a population of 16.5 million (in USA terms that would be 11,528,900 second screen engagement downloads for one show).
One should not underestimate how quickly and drastically consumer behaviour can change. Remember when we used to use mobile phones for just calling people? Look what we do with them now? TV will change from what we have known for decades - it's ripe for it - there's too much visual ritalin, too many commercials, and, as narrative developments show in the Transmedia world, stories are going to get more complex on TV... as they should in the future. We have been on a long journey from - people screaming at a screening of an oncoming train during the first ever publically shown film - to extremely rich, complex narratives withTransmedia properties such as The Matrix and Avatar today.
Niyogi is right about one thing clearly. Forget trying to recreate the interruptive business model of commercial television and port it to the second screen. It's not going to work. Sorry, but we dealt with internet popups in the 90s on PCs and that's a leap backwards into the dark.
I wrote this about a year and a half ago:
I also understand that brands need to fund quality formats via broadcasters for some time into the foreseeable future. But their minions, the agencies, are going to have to get a lot more creative in how they engage consumers in the future – and the 'old' easy way of simply throwing 30 seconds at a public that wants to watch, what they want to watch, when they want to watch it, on any connected device, anywhere they want to watch it, preferably without being interrupted – is a dying proposition.
Branded Content is a solution. Preferably subtle product placement will be another way. Game mechanics with calls to action on a second screen will be a winner. More targeted engagement is undeniably more likely to get attention. Accessorizing works... feel free to give me added value to things I own. Freemium is pretty cool. Micropayments I can live with. Affordable subscriptions for content I really get a kick out of are nice. Let me have the chance to win something. Give me more compelling reasons to like the brands. Let me socialize what I like to my networks. Challenge me. Engage me. Give me some buzz.
The future of brand delivery on TV is certainly anyone's guess at this point.
Chew on these stats.
• In US, 77% use TV & internet simultaneously (Nielsen)• 50% do so every day (Google/Clustalabs)• 41% of All Viewers Second Screening Daily While Watching TV, 30% Using VOD services (Ofcom)• 86% of US smartphone and 88% of tablet owners use it while watching TV once a month (Nielsen)• 45% use their tablet while watching TV daily (Nielsen)• 44% of total tablet usage is while watching TV (Nielsen)• 72% of under 25's in the UK comment on programs via social networks (Digital Clarity)• 62% of TV viewers pick up the phone as soon as TV advertising break starts. (Nielsen)• Over half (56%) of US households have at least one TV connected to the internet, and smart TV penetration doubled in the last year from 12 percent to 25 percent. Close to a fourth of net-connected game console time is spent viewing video, a rate highest among Sony PS3 users (29%) (TDG)• 50% of Canadians have a second-screen device at hand most of the time while watching TV and 19% have one all the time. This means that producers and broadcasters are now facing the challenge to captivate and retain the attention of viewers in this multi-screen environment. (Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)• 19.4% of TV watchers who engage in second-screen activities shop for products seen in ads (NPD)• Viewing video on mobile devices tripled in 2012 - 300% for smartphones, 360% for tablets (Adobe)• 92% of respondents report watching online video in 2012 from 77% in 2011.

With HBO's series diverting its story from George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series, "Game of Thrones" season 5 spoilers feature Tyrion Lannister and Arya Stark prepping for their scenes for the upcoming season. Played by Emmy-winner Peter Dinklage and Maisie Williams, the two GOT actors were spotted in costume in the latest filming locations.
Based on a recent pictures taken from "Game of Thrones" shooting locations, Tyrion and Jorah Mormont, played by Ian Glen, were caught doing a scene together. Currently filming on the show's Antrim set, the two characters of the show will be a forming a close friendship after they were sold as slaves based on Martin's book "A Dance With Dragons."
In another GOT set, Arya Stark was spotted in Kastel Gomilica in Croatia where she is shooting some scenes in Braavos. Thanks to a Reddit user who took the snaps of the cast members, fans of shows and the books can now conclude that the show's creators will be departing from its original material.
During the season 4's finale, Tryon sailed away from Kings Landing after killing Tywin, Arya Stark used her priced coin to book passage to Braavos and Jorah Mormont was exiled by Daenerys Targaryen. With Arya sailing to Braavos and Tryion and Jorah fleeing across the Narrow Sea, the three characters will wind up in the same location based on the fan's pictures.
"Frontloading the interesting pairing of Tyrion and Jorah - with the exciting prospect of the terrific actors playing them sharing a lot of screen time - points toward even more meddling with the source novels' layout," reports Screen Rant. "This presumably will also mean the inclusion of more material that isn't in the books at all, which is the best way to keep everyone surprised and coming back for more."
While Arya's role is secured for the next season, Brad Stark (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) and his ever loyal companion, Hodor (Kristian Nairn), are not joining the massive cast for season 5. The two stars are going to take a year off from playing their roles but will return for the sixth season.

Please check our Used List
The Icom IC-92AD is a rugged 5 watt dualband HT with D-STAR built-in! Three RF power levels are available. It is built military tough. The IC-92AD (and optional HM-175GPS) have superior waterproof protection and is equivalent to IPX7 (1 meter underwater for 30 minutes). The aluminum diecast chassis and gasketsealed housing provide performance you can count on in harsh outdoor environments. Icom's original wideband PA circuit and supplied lithium-ion battery pack provides 5 watts (typical) output power on both VHF and UHF bands. The supplied BP-256 provides up to 6/5.5 hours of operating time (Stand-by duty ratio= 1:1:8). When you do not need full power operation, you can reduce output power to 2.5/0.5/0.1 watts to conserve battery consumption. The 92AD features a multi-line, full dot-matrix display with simple bandscope. With this backlit display you cand see the alphanumeric channel name, bandscope, received message and position information, etc. You can even change the display setting to show frequency or memory name in the center of the display. The four cursor direction buttons on the keypad give you quick and intuitive access to many settings. The dual volume/channel knob provides convenient channel selection and volume control. And of course you have keypad entry. The built-in voice recorder (in DV mode only) records an incoming call for up to 30-seconds (or 15 sec. × 2 tracks, 10 sec. × 3 tracks). For automated outgoing calls, you can pre-record up to 10 seconds of your callsign and/or CQ message in the IC-92AD's voice memory.

About the Book
From the lost journals of archaeologist Amelia Peabody comes a chronicle from the "missing years"—a tale of adventure, bravery, and terror.
Readers have long wondered what befell the Emerson clan during the years before the Great War. Now, at last, the silence is broken and the truth revealed of a perilous journey to a secret and mysterious place hidden deep in the heart of the unforgiving desert. An adventure prompted by loyalty to an endangered friend—and spurred on by lies and treachery—leads Amelia Peabody and her intrepid family into a nest of vipers lying in wait at a remote mountain fortress. And when a dark past and a shocking mystery are ultimately discovered, a loved one may be lost forever.

Bitcoin's missing link sneaks into main event at Finovate

The UpTake: Before Bitcoin users see any sort of widespead adoption of the currency it'll need to win over the more traditional financiers. Although Bicoin itself was a no-show at this year's Finovate conference, a hybrid product could show the way forward.
At this week's Finovate conference in New York, one of the most disruptive innovations in any industry, yet alone finance, was nowhere to be seen—at first. With $1.6 billion worth of the encrypted currency Bitcoin currently in circulation, I was surprised to see so little impact on the traditional financial segments. Until that is, I started chatting with Tom Meredith, the founder of P2P Cash, a free way to send money.
A brochure at Meredith's booth caught our eye: "BitMinutes, Better that Bitcoin," it read.
"There's kind of a hybrid opportunity here between money transfer, which is heavily regulated, and Bitcoin—not regulated at all—and something in the middle that is prepaid minutes that could be tracked," said Meredith.
"People are buying and selling minutes on the street corner because in the rest of the world, except the United States, you have to prepay your [phone] minutes," he said.
Using P2P Cash's cloud-based interchange, BitMinutes customers can send phone minutes to friends, exchange them for services, or cash them in for traditional currency, according to a document provided to Upstart Business Journal.
Click here to learn about the most popular companies to demo at Finovate this week.
Similar to Bitcoin, BitMintues is an alternative form of payment that could work across borders, and isn't backed by any country. Unlike Bitcoin though, there are traditional currencies behind the minutes, which could be the type of guarantee users other than early adopters need to open up to the idea of alternative forms of payment.
"You've seen a lot of the regulatory news about Bitcoin in the U.S. and internationally," said Donald Chapman, the company's vice-president of business development. "We want to make it legitimate, bring it above board, and recognize that alternative payments are exactly what people need, what businesses need, and see what we can do to sort of circumvent the more established payment methods that cost businesses money, and cost consumers money,"

U.S. budget issues are real, but solving them shouldn't have to cost lives. Yet, for millions of women and children living with HIV and AIDS worldwide this is exactly what will happen if U.S. funding for foreign aid is slashed. Please tell your Senators to support vital HIV/AIDS programs and oppose cuts to these and other lifesaving foreign assistance programs. Take action today!
If you take action and have not already registered, you will receive periodic updates and communications from Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
Dear [Decision Maker],
Please protect U.S. foreign aid programs and support strong funding levels included in the Senate mark for foreign assistance, including global HIV/AIDS programs, in the final FY2012 appropriations legislation.
Sincerely,[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State ZIP]

Ice skating is one of the few sports at which Negroes have not already equaled or surpassed white athletes. But this year a 19-year-old Harlem girl has turned up to skate figure eights around all but the top white performers.
Mabel Fairbanks is no carbon copy of Sonja Henie or Maribel Vinson. But experts rate her superior to most white amateurs and unquestionably the best skater of her race. Shy, timid and coal-black, she tried on her first pair of skates less than four years ago. Within six months she was mastering spirals, sit-down spins and stops figures that spill many a...

Better value?
One case Crown Royale, or two cases of Beat of Football, obviously crown is 1200, I can get two cases of BOF for 1170
Curious for opinions of better value, ROI potential, any other opinions

IMHO set your money on fire or save it for a future release, these are both a terrible value.
But if your set on these two, I say crown because at least it it would be a somewhat fun break. Plus haven't all the chase cards in "Best of" been pulled? while Crown is still new and hot, I know my PC guys are selling really high out of Crown right now.

The Best of Football, that's the Leaf product with the one graded card correct? Plus two autos?
I would personally go that route as you have more of a chance of recouping your money. Say that graded hit you get is a $80 dollar SV card, it didn't recoup the full box but it comes a lot closer than having a ton of base and inserts laying around, one color jerseys and such.

Articulation: How Do You Feel About It?
June 25, 2004, 03:15 PM »
I was originally going to post this in the Marvel thread, but it covers other lines as well. Hope this is ok. After reading one of MisterPL's posts over at GH, it kind of got me to thinking about articulation. He was talking about how some Marvel Legends figures almost end up looking like marionettes with the insane amount of articulation, and I can kind of see what he means. I guess I was curious what some of you thought about articulation, how much do you like, does it depend on the source (Star Wars, Marvel, military, etc.), is there too much in some situations? How do you feel about it?
For me, I've always kind of liked articulation. It doesn't have to be "extreme" for me, but I like it better than statue-like figures. My favorite forms of articulation are on figures that it is either well hidden, or it doesn't seem to detract from the sculpt too much. In the Star Wars world, examples of this would be what we have seen from the VOTC, as well as figures like the SA Clonetrooper..and even the Dannl Faytonni type figures. Also with Star Wars, I don't care if they are all super articulated, just the ones that make sense (main character versions, army builder figs). I don't need super crazy articulated Dexter Jettster or Orn Free Ta. Toy Biz seems to usually be setting the bar as far as high articulation counts, in both their Marvel and Lord of the Rings lines, and often it works out pretty well. They do have some that there might almost be too much at points, and others where it is used pretty well. Another problem I sometimes have with all the articulation in Toy Biz figures, is that it seems some of my Legends figures (as well as my movie Spidey) have gotten kind of loose in spots, and it isn't because they are moved around much. I basically take them out of the package, put them in a pose, and set them up....every once in a great while I might change it up, but not often. Anyways, I guess it sounds like a "middle of the road" answer...I do like articulation, when used well, but I don't have to have 50 points of articulation to be happy. Sometimes it is neat to see what points they can include, but in some instances they aren't necessary. Anyways, what is your opinion on articulation....how much do you like, how much is too much, or is there ever too much?

I feel Toy Biz overdoes it on the ML line. I really don't think a 6" figure needs 40 points of articulation, especially if some joints move when you don't want them to.

I agree. There is a point when it becomes too much. I think with SW it's a case of usually not having enough. They do a great job mostly, and I'd like to see a little more uniform articulation across the line.

Articulation's part of toys, and being that toys are what I want to collect I say the more the better GENERALLY. The Marvel line I'm familiar with enough, but I generally don't collect them.
This figure, to me, is close to perfection... Hasbro's SA Clone or Durge MAYBE best this though, with their VERY excellent use of Ball/socket joints. Unfortunately where 21st excels Hasbro doesn't, and where Hasbro excels 21st doeosn't.
To me, the SW line's severely lacking in this single area more than any other. Rubbery accessories are dealt with, absurd distribution's a fact of life, oversaturation's been with us since vintage days. Articulation is an area they just are reluctant to tread.
21st's figures are incredibly poseable (as are BBI's) and look AMAZING displayed. Truly impressive little pieces of plastic, and even with pre-posed interchangeable arms they really add a dynamic there for "static pose" collectors.
Bottom line though, articulation is the #1 area that makes a toy, and more focused an action figure, a truly fun item to play with. The popularity of poseable toy lines should be a guide for all toy lines... G.I. Joe, Marvel, LOTR, Stikfas (and similar), BBI Elite Force, 12" military lines, etc...
Lots to learn from there. I'd love to see Hasbro wind up doing figures in their SW line as well as the SA Clone or Deluxe Durge were (or VOTC's). Incredible sculpting, articulation, and deco all in one. Keep salt shaker senators and the like, but go all-out on the rest.
I'd even like a more dramatically posed side-line alongside the poseable basic line at the same time. Like Unleashed, but in more "realistic" poses and in the same 3.75" scale. A 3.75" Han running (circa DS Escape) looks a LOT more fun for specific dioramas when you've got VOTC Han to pose however you want and play with.

Honestly, I like a nuetral pose with standard articulation. I think ML over does it a little.

Articulation: How Do You Feel About It?

A representative for David Boreanaz has hit back at allegations the actor sexually harassed an extra on his hit TV show Bones - calling the lurid story "totally fabricated and absurd."
Actress Kristina Hagan has filed suit against the former Buffy The Vampire Slayer star alleging he made a series of unwanted sexual advances towards her last year while they worked on the program together. She claims Boreanaz's alleged bad behavior included sending "inappropriate text messages," masturbating in front of her and attempting to "kiss her and touch her breasts."
Hagan claims she suffered "emotional and psychological distress" as well as lost earnings as a result of the alleged incidents involving the actor. However, Boreanaz's representative is adamant Hagan's lawsuit is completely without merit.
A statement released to Access Hollywood reads, "The allegations concerning any alleged inappropriate conduct by David Boreanaz are totally fabricated and absurd. There is no validity to this lawsuit."
The actor is currently undergoing counseling sessions with his wife Jaime Bergman in a bid to save their marriage after he recently confessed to an affair.

Kikuyu - Riddles and Proverbs |
Most of the following proverbs and riddles are taken from Gikuyu Oral Literature, by Wanjiki Mukabi Kabira and Kerega wa Muthahi (1988: East African Educational Publishers, PO Box 45314 Nairobi, Kenya). See the copyright notice. |
In this page: Proverbs Riddles Sung riddles |
- The quality of a home is only known by its resident
- One who never travels thinks it only his mother who is a good cook.
- A beautiful girl passes by the poor man's home.
- The prospective initiates may take the initiation bath yet fail to go through the initiation.
- The warrior may be tripped by a maize cob
- Where men have been on cannot pick a good feather.
- Good reasoning breaks a strung bow.
- A disunited battalion gets beaten with one club.
- An old he goat does not sneeze for nothing.
- We are like a Maasai and his underpants
(if two Kikuyu wish to have nothing further to do with each other after a disagreement, they will say this meaning 'we have nothing to do with each other' - the Maasai do not wear underpants, at least not in popular legend)- Women and the sky cannot be understood.
- The man may be the head of the home, but the woman is the heart.
- Frowning frogs cannot stop the cows drinking from the pool.
Riddle |
Answer |
When I look at you I see you through to the intestines |
A granary |
I have travelled with one who never tells me to rest |
My shadow |
I have gone round the forest with a red motorcycle |
A rainbow |
I have a house without a door or a window |
An egg |
It is upside down but does not leak |
A cow's udder |
They face up as if they are about to lead a song |
The horns of cattle |
I have a person who stays between two swords but never gets cut |
The tongue |
My house has only one pole |
The mushroom |
Those things in the cave have one hundred eyes |
Honey combs |
An elephant with one ear |
A cup |
If anyone has any more information about these, I'd love to hear it!
The Kikuyu had a very elaborate sung riddle game, a duet called the enigma poem or gicandi (gicandia), a set text of riddles that could apparently contain up to 127 stanzas. It was sung in a duet by two competitors, who had each learned the poem by heart. A decorated gourd rattle accompanied the singing.

The step increments on the bracket allows more adjustments. Things I would have changed:nothing What others should know:needed this adaptor for installing my scope on my Crosman 2240. Make sure you have added the longer breech for install. Things I liked:Attaches to dovetail well and does what it needs to do. The additional screw thru the center (perpendicular to the bore) could be useful it keeping it tight on the mount. Sufficient space for mounting what you want to. Things I would have changed:If there was a way to make this thinner so as to minimize raising your optics, I would do that. What others should know:I do not like adapters. This raised my red dot so high it would promote bad shooting habits unless you like that sort of thing. If you have to raise your head/cheek to look thru a sight, it's not a good thing. Guys get those mounts where you can adjust your scope for long shots and look thru the under side of the scope thru the mounts for open sight shots. Well, I haven't seen anyone with those kinds of mounts drive tacks like someone with a regular mount can and I've seen and taught a lot of shooters. Overall, I would recommend getting a sight that fits without this device. However, it works fantastically for it's intended use to mount something on. Things I liked:Well build and easy to use. Things I would have changed:Nothing What others should know:I would recommend this product for air gun use. Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

The Misfits have announced that a new single titled Land Of The Dead will be released in time for Halloween. The two song, 12 inch LP maxi-single will be the band's first new studio release since 2003's Project 1950. Both new songs, "Land of the Dead" and "Twilight of the Dead" were written by Jerry Only and were inspired by George Romero's zombie films. The release will feature a new cover painting by artist Arthur Suydam (of Marvel Comics' Marvel Zombies fame). More details on the various editions to be released can be found on the band's website.

I never liked the Misfits. Anyone else with me?
MattRamone (October 12, 2009)
Unless they're 10 minutes each, two songs on a 12 inch is fucking stupid.
Gritty (October 12, 2009)
This band really needs to let it go. Have some self respect. It's been 25 years since Danzig left, and not one decent Misfits song has been written in that time. This is not a coincidence. Let it go.
Seth_Uber_Alles (October 12, 2009)
Night of the Living Dead is a great song. Let's talk about how brilliant their output with Glenn is.
Cos (October 12, 2009)
I really enjoyed Land of the Dead. The movie. I know I'm in the minority on this one.
consider_the_ravens (October 12, 2009)
never got into this band other than a few songs. but the move land of the dead was sick!
xrebelheartsx (October 12, 2009)
god damn it, why won't the "misfits" (using that name loosely) just go away?
Graves (October 12, 2009)
I heard them play this song last weekend and it was very good. Had the classic Misfits sound.
Phantom_Maggot (October 12, 2009)
I am just looking for this to be on par with Graves era "Misfits". I enjoy those Graves era albums for what they are. I think that if they had not used the Misfits name, people would have liked Famous Monsters and American Psycho much more than they did. And, since Jerry only wrote a bulk of the songs on those records, I don't expect these to be horrible. Hopefully, Only proves me correct.
IanIsSuperRad (October 13, 2009)
I know I'm not supposed to like post-Danzig Misfits, but I really enjoy the song Saturday Night. That's the only one though.
Fiend71 (November 17, 2009)
These are two good songs. I support the present day Misfits and I am not a dumb ass kid. Yes the Glen era ruled, but I do not blame Jerry for keeping th eband going. Of course I wish Doyle, Dr. CHUD, and Michael Graves were back because we all know Danzig will never be back. Glen did start the Misfits, but he also LEFT them. Hell, he fired a guitar player over a cheesebuger for cryin out loud. I'd rather live in a world with Jerry and his Black Flag Misfits than no Misfits at all. |

The pies are thin-crust - but not too thin - and cooked in a standard deck oven. You can build your own from a lengthy list of toppings or choose one of the "Classics," like a margherita or pepperoni pizza. There are also specialty pizzas, like a pulled-pork barbecue pizza and "The Wolf," with sausage, pepperoni and applewood-smoked bacon.

Orange Blossom restaurant in Miami Beach has Old Florida feel with New American cooking
Breakfast, lunch and dinner served at former Charles St. space.
Orange Blossom
2000 Collins Ave., Miami Beach
305-763-8983, orangeblossommiami.comHours: Breakfast, lunch and dinner daily
The who: Nightlife and culture guru Tatanka Guerrero taps chef Nelson Maldonado to head up the kitchen at Orange Blossom, an homage to Old Florida and market-fresh cooking.
Maldonado is a native of Ecuador (not Equador, as Orange Blossom's website misstates) who got his kitchen start washing dishes at a Chinese buffet in Miami before graduating culinary school and moving up to cook at Todd English's Brasserie Ça Va in New York.
The restaurant's name is inspired by the Orange Blossom Special, the luxury passenger train that ferried the earliest snowbirds from New York to Miami for the first half of the 20th century.
The space: The former Charles St. spot is reinvented with vintage-print wallpaper, warm lighting, reclaimed wood and flower-filled vases. It feels a bit like grandma's dining room — if granny's the type who mixes up strong gin cocktails.
The dishes: New American. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all served here. There are plenty of familiar dishes — tomato-and-mozzarella salad, NY strip steak — and some things that stand out like ramp-and-ricotta pasta, kale-and-quinoa salad and salmon-belly tartare. Starters are in the $10-$14 range, and mains land around $15-$34.
Start with the fava-and-fennel soup, baby beet salad or fig prosciutto flatbread. Move on to pastas like garganelli Bolognese or farro risotto with peas and carrots. Fish options include seared branzino over lentil salad and a Florida black grouper with parmesan risotto.
Desserts are back to the familiar, with choices like Grand Marnier soufflé, coffee panna cotta and warm brownie with vanilla ice cream.
The bottom line: A rare South Beach spot where you can start your day with a casual breakfast or end it with a decent steak.

Mental Health Keywords: post traumatic stress disorder, victimization Background: Used with children and adolescents, the UCLA PTSD index for DSM IV is a series of self and parent report instruments to screen both for exposure to traumatic events and for all DSM IV PTSD symptoms in school age children and adolescents who report traumatic stress experiences.

The Ferrule Block is more than just a fast, efficient way of installing ferrules onto the shaft; it is an indispensable combination measuring tool that will become a mainstay on any clubmaker's workbench.
The top of The Ferrule Block features a counter-bored recess for the ferrule to sit without slipping and will accept all standard sized ferrules from 0.335" to oversized 0.370" iron ferrules. Once you have started the ferrule onto your shaft, simply push down until the shaft is seated into The Ferrule Block. Now the ferrule is installed safely enough onto the shaft that you can use the head to drive it on the rest of the way.
The Ferrule Block is also a handy measurement tool to help identify the most common sized tip and butt diameters used in the industry today. Measure butts and tips quickly and accuracy.
Whether you are installing ferrules or identifying shaft tip or butt diameters, The Ferrule Block will become your most trusted and used tool in your shop!

I ran into one of these the other day at LGS. It is in near mint shape and at $279 I thinkj it would be hard to go wrong. I know they are clone of the CZ75, but I have never known anyone who has fired one. Anyone have anything good or bad to say about these?

I cant find any info on the pistol.
Patron Member NRA "I would not be an old man if I had not been an armed young man." JTJ I was taught to respect my elders but they are getting harder to find.
I have one I bought new in 1988 and I would buy it again. It shoots straight @ 25 yds and eats anything I feed it including lead bullets... Haard to find extra magaazines for it though. That sounds like a good price too. Sorry about the messed up spacing & typing here, don't know what is happening. I wooould post one of my 25 yd targets here for you to see but that is impossible for me to do. Don't know why but it jusst won't work. Regards, Sardine.
