Itachi Uchiha is a former ninja of Konohagakure and the partner of Kisame Hoshigaki. Though having spent his early youth as the child prodigy of the Uchiha clan, Itachi is treated as a villain for much of the series. He is initially portrayed as being solely responsible for the killing of his entire clan and family, sparing only his brother, Sasuke Uchiha, with the explanation that he was testing his abilities.Around the time of his death his villainous role is downplayed; not only is he revealed to have had help from Madara Uchiha in killing the clan, but he performed the massacre under the orders of Konoha's leadership so as to prevent an Uchiha coup d'etat.

And this month, Danieley took his company to the Netherlands and recorded tracks for an up-and-coming Dutch group's debut CD — the first international recording Danieley will have produced.
Originally from Burlington, Danieley graduated early from Elon in 2010 with a degree in music technology, and took to the road, touring with The Hoppers, a Southern gospel group.
"I toured with them for a while and then jumped ship and toured around with a few other groups," Danieley said.
He said he found his way in Nashville performing country and bluegrass gigs with other artists, until a friend approached him in 2011 about co-producing an album.
"It was a gospel record for a group called The Sneed Family," Danieley said. "They were kind of just getting started."
Danieley and his friend worked on it in Nashville, which launched in 2012 and enjoyed instant success.
"We actually had a number four single off of it, which is great for a debut record," he said.
Danieley and his friend also produced a Christmas recording for The Sneed Family, after which Danieley branched off on his own and established Danieley Music, through which he's recorded sessions for country and gospel artists in Nashville and closer to home in North Carolina and Virginia.
"I started getting calls from a lot of the guys I'd always looked up to," Danieley said. "I finally started making a name for myself as a player and as a producer."
Danieley "tracks," or records, anywhere and mixes and masters the tunes in his home studio, the New Haven Room. For local clients, Danieley generally goes to The Farm Studios in Madison to record tracks, before mixing at his home studio.
"I'm still doing a ton of touring … as a player and as an engineer, running front of house for different people," Danieley said.
That's how he landed the opportunity to produce an album internationally.
In June, Danieley was touring with The Hoppers again, this time overseas in Ireland and the Netherlands. While there, he got to talking with Dutch groups, and Men For Christ asked him to produce their first country gospel CD.
"There is a big market over there for this kind of thing. It's just the majority of European engineers … are going for the techno, the kind of progressive rock (sound)."
Danieley said the "European-style country" has "more throwbacks to the Django Reinhardt gypsy jazz," versus American country's throwbacks to Johnny Cash and Hank Williams.
So Danieley is hoping to help satisfy a "strangely high demand" for the country and gospel sound by taking his Nashville know-how into the European market, starting with Men For Christ.
Not only was it Danieley's first international production job, it was his largest, since the 16-voice men's ensemble performs with an equally large number of musicians.
"A lot of music these days – even live – they're using three, or four or five musicians and the rest is on track," said Danieley. "But these guys legitimately have everyone on stage."
"Standard tracking sessions over here, we may deal with a drummer, bass player, two guitars and a keyboard – maybe five or six guys at a time playing," he said. "They've got a full band, a full string orchestra section, a full brass and woodwinds section, which is very uncommon these days," said Danieley.
Even though the tracking was split up over about a week, Danieley was at any given time working with 18 individual artists at the same time. He said the process was like music recording was in the earlier days, before dubbing over tracks was an option.
"It's more traditional folk country," Danieley said. "But it's different having the full orchestra. It's just a totally different sound."
Now that he's back home in Burlington, Danieley has to mix and master the songs – which will take longer than usual given the number of musicians adding to each track's complexity.
"The mix is going to take a day or two days per song," he said. "And they tracked 12 songs."
But Danieley is looking forward to the challenge, and hopes to work with the band again in the future.
"They want me to do their second record," Danieley said, adding that Men For Christ has also approached him about traveling with them on tour to track live performances.
"This opportunity opened a ton of new doors," he said. "It looks like I'm going to be working in Europe a lot more."

Scott Satchfield / Eyewitness News

NEW ORLEANS -- Two days later, the Super Bowl power outage is still getting national attention, but Mayor Mitch Landrieu is focused on the big picture.
'The blackout is not gonna define, for the people of New Orleans, this Super Bowl. No matter what anybody says about it, it was a spectacular event for us,' Landrieu said.
What caused the outage remains a mystery, and now, officials are calling on a third-party group to investigate.
'We felt it was important, with Entergy's help to hire an independent engineering firm so that we could quickly get started on an evaluation to determine what the root cause of this may be,' said SMG Vice President Doug Thornton.
Documents obtained by CBS News, Tuesday, reveal concerns over a possible outage surfaced months ago.
On Sept. 15, a Superdome advisor wrote: 'as a result of testing, there is evidence that (electric) feeders (at the dome) are not operating at 100 percent of their capacity' and 'should be replaced.'
Tuesday, officials talked about the improvements that were made as a result.
'Entergy upgraded the switchgear in the vault that we've been talking about. They spent a considerable amount of money to prevent the kind of activity that we had Sunday night. We, in turn, wanted to upgrade our feeder system so that we would have a reliable system and 100 percent redundancy that we now have,' Thornton said.
'The substation was receiving power from the Entergy system. There was also energy being delivered on the other side of the system,' said Entergy CEO Charles Rice.
And thus, the search for answers continues -- over a situation that frayed some nerves, and also spurred a few good jokes.
'There is nothing the people of New Orleans cannot achieve. I agree with that, but I agree also with what we read on Twitter -- 'who hasn't blacked out in New Orleans before?'' Landrieu said.

Comment: Love these bags! Fit my HD 883 great. Took Five days to get them, would order from Jafrum again.
Comment: love the bags and all the little perks they come with (clasp locks, zipper locks, rain flap, inside pockets. ) super easy to install on my HD 08 sportster xxl. perfect fit for the bike w/ the sissy bar/back rest. any bigger and i wouldn't have room for my legs when on the back seat (when BF is driving). going to relocate the signals to make a little more room too. the slant makes the difference regarding leg room too. wish they could be bigger to fit more stuff but wouldn't fit if they were. already tried others and had to return them. basically can fit one leather or padded mesh jacket in each bag. or my large full purse in one. price was good, shipping was fine. they look great too!

The bags look like leather but are more durable than leather, they look great on the Honda Shadow my son bought. He shows them off every chance he gets and he has already received compliments from other riders.

El Paso, TX
Comment: Fits just fine on my 82 Suzuki GS550L without having to move the taillights. They look great and I'm very impressed with the quality, the internal pockets are a nice feature. My full raingear fits in on side and my leather jacket in the other so space was not a problem. If you're looking for a nice set of bags at a great price I'd highly recommend these.

Comment: Really nice bags and look great! Very functional and didn't have to relocate signals.
Comment: Good product, fast shipping , very good customer service.
Comment: Bought these bags for my wife's 2012 HD xl1200c. I mounted them under the seat and did not require the universal brackets I purchased. They look great and the functionality is fantastic. We just took a 4 day ride to Gettysburg, PS. and the bags were fantastic. Even go caught in a little rain and everything inside stayed dry. Worth every penny AND some!! Would definitely recommend and/or purchase again.

Comment: I like the soft quality of the leather and the rigidness of the bags frame as well with the look. The only thing was that i had to get a relocator Kit for the rear blinkers. There's 80 bucks right there but i like the overall look.
Bremerton, WA
Comment: bought these based on previous reviews and I am sure glad I did. I wanted a more economical bag for my Harley FXDF and these bags fit the bill. Amazing for the money.
Tanner Scott
Comment: Was a little nervous they would be a little too big. No worries, perfect fit! Seem big enough to hold enough stuff but not too big where they are clunky and in the way. Quality seems good and sturdy. Looking forward to some warmer weather so I can put them to use.

slidell, la
Comment: first time ordering from Jafrum, saw the saddle bags on sale, figured for the price I would give them a shot. These bags are Awesome, the pictures don't do them justice at all!!! They look Great on my customized ACE Deluxe, Everyone who has seen them thinks they look great, and they can't believe the price... will definitely order from Jafrum, again.
Cleveland, Ohio
Comment: I purchased these for my 2014 HD Dyna Low Rider with the hope that they would fit without any modifications. Well, they fit like they were made for the bike. Took approx. 20 minutes to put them on. They look great. Very well constructed and look very much like real leather. The video says they come with two complimentary locks but I never found them. Wanted to tell Jafrum about this but can't find the submit button to click to send an email. Hopefully an employee will read this and look into the problem. If you are looking for a set of great saddlebags, you will not go wrong buying these.
B Fordham
Houston, Tx
Comment: bought these saddle bags because they look nice and are a good price. when they came, i was happy. The only complaint I have is that wish the handles zipped off the bags so I dont have to figure out a way to hide them when i mount them. other than that, the bags are sturdy and very good quality. Cant wait to mount them on my Dyna Super Glide.
shannon williams
Fort Hood Texas
Comment: Nice set of bags, look nice on bike. need to improve a better system to hook to saddle bag supports..
New York
Comment: The ONLY thing I have that is bad to say about these bags is they are slightly smaller than I expected but that was my fault for not measuring ahead of time. They look great, fit well with my bike and I think the smaller size actually looks better on my bike anyway. I love them and after putting them to work for a few weeks, still look like new. Plus a lifetime warranty!

These SD4065 studded and braided saddlebags come in two sizes. Both are
medium in size making them perfect for use on medium to large cruisers. The
smaller bag measures 12.5 x 11 x 6 inches and is called SD4065 Studded. The
larger bag is 16 x 11 x 6.5 inches and called SD4065 Medium. They have separate
listings on our website so make sure the one want is the one pictured in the
listing. Both versions of the bag are made out of leather looking PVC and the
style of the bags is nearly identical, although there are some subtle
differences in the features. Both bags are considered throw over bags, meaning
they mount to the motorcycle by laying the yoke over the rear fender beneath the
seat. They can also both be mounted without the yoke by installing a motorcycle
specific mounting system to the bike. I will say, though, that the smaller
version of these bags is a little bit better suited to the yokeless mounting,
because the rigid panel on the back of the smaller bag is quite a bit stiffer
than that of the larger bag. Both bags have these hidden zippers that allow the
bags to be removed quickly and easily. Each of the bags has a grommeted hole for
deterring theft and the smaller bag even comes with complementary locks. Adding
to the portability, are these carry handles that are positioned next to the yoke
connection. There placement near the edge of the lid versus the center allows
both pieces to be carried simultaneously which frees up your other hand for
parade waving. While the bag is off, it is easy to see the heat protection
shield on the bottom, which is on the smaller bag only, and the tie points on
the back for securing your bags to your saddlebag supports. Both bags have quick
release buckles hidden beneath there classic looking ones. Opening the bag up,
reveals the element barrier and the low profile pockets on the sides of the

OXFORD, Ohio - The Miami Athletes of the Week connected by Frontier Communications for the week of Nov. 26-Dec. 2 are sophomore forward Austin Czarnik of the hockey team and senior swimmer Bekka Westrick.
Czarnik (Washington, Mich.) totaled five points on a goal and four assists at Alaska last weekend. In Friday's 5-2 win, he tied a career high with three points, scoring Miami's first goal and adding two assists, including one on the game-winner. It was his third three-point game this year and seventh of his career. He was also +3 in the game. In Saturday's 4-0 shutout, he dished out two more assists for his sixth multi-point game of the year. Once more he had the primary assist on the game-winning goal, while his other assist came on a long outlet pass after he grabbed a loose puck in front of Miami's net and found a teammate alone at mid-ice for a breakaway goal. Czarnik finished with a +4 rating on the weekend and earned the game's second star Friday and third star on Saturday.
This is the second time this year, and of his career, that Czarnik has earned Miami Male Athlete of the Week. He was also named CCHA Offensive Player of the Week for his efforts.
Westrick (Fairfield, Ohio) had a record-setting weekend at the 2012 Miami Invitational (Nov. 29-Dec. 1), breaking three school records, three pool records and two meet records. On Thursday, she broke Miami's record for the 200 freestyle on her leadoff leg (1:47.55) in the event-winning 800 freestyle relay. On Friday, in the individual 200 free, Westrick let loose with a first-place and school record time of 1:47.29. Later Friday evening, in her 50 free victory, she nearly broke the Miami and pool records with a time of 22.75. On Saturday, in her 100 butterfly triumph, Westrick's winning time of 52.91 set school, meet and pool records. She also won the 100 free event in 49.93, slightly slower than the pool record of 49.59. Westrick's blazing anchor leg in the 400 free relay led Miami to victory in 3:21.97, just a fraction of a second slower than the varsity record of 3:21.53.
Westrick has now received Miami's Female Athlete of the Week honor four times in her career with Tuesday's recognition her first this season.
Czarnik and the No. 3 hockey team are back on the ice this weekend, hosting Lake Superior State Friday and Saturday at Steve Cady Arena. Westrick and the swimming team are off for winter break, but return to the pool Jan. 3 with a meet against James Madison while on a training trip in Boca Raton, Fla.
The next Miami Athletes of the Week connected by Frontier Communications will be announced Tuesday, Dec. 11. For a list of previous winners, click here.

Amenorrhea facts
What is amenorrhea?
Reader Stories
Amenorrhea is the medical term for the absence of menstrual periods, either on a permanent or temporary basis. Amenorrhea can be classified as primary or secondary. In primary amenorrhea, menstrual periods have never begun (by age 16), whereas secondary amenorrhea is defined as the absence of menstrual periods for three consecutive cycles or a time period of more than six months in a woman who was previously menstruating.
The menstrual cycle can be influenced by many internal factors such as transient changes in hormonal levels, stress, and illness, as well as external or environmental factors. Missing one menstrual period is rarely a sign of a serious problem or an underlying medical condition, but amenorrhea of longer duration may signal the presence of a disease or chronic condition.

1) The USPS is NOT a monopoly. You are free to send your mail/packages via FedEx, UPS, DHS, local parcel and gasp e-mail.
2) FedEx and UPS both rely heavily on the USPS to remain profitable by farming unprofitable packages to the USPS.
3) The USPS is the only one that has to fund it health care 75 years in advance, this includes all government agencies and FedEx/UPS/DHS...
4) UPS is unionized and pays as well as, if not better then, the USPS so don't blame unions.
5) The vast majority of the debt is because of the pre-fund mandate and all of it can be attributed to Congress. If the USPS was allowed to act as an independent agency they would be fine. Redundant post offices not allowed to close, Saturday delivery being required, and the prefund are all problems cause by Congress not the USPS.

Or if we don't admit that USPS should be a taxpayer funded exercise, let them choose only the cost-efficient routes as other carriers do. You'd get daily delivery in urban centers and once-a-month visit anywhere in the wilderness.
My understanding is UPS/FedEx already use USPS to execute delivery in "unprofitable" areas, because USPS has to cover them, even if these routes lose money. A business that has to perform unprofitable work is pretty much a government service as far as I am concerned.

So this is how it stands right now: first class volume, way down; standard mail, about the same; package volume, way up. So, the relevancy of the post office is heading towards more of package delivery versus letter delivery. I think if the post office didn't have to deal with congress setting the unbelievably stupid pre-funding all pensions for the foreseeable future rule, we'd actually be in halfway decent shape. And really, if they didn't have to deal with congress at all, I think more advanced things could be done. Like maybe branching out into something like what Fedex-Kinkos has done. It would bring more services to each post office then just shipping.

Prices should rise to at least cover expenses. I think residential delivery should be ended Tuesday and Thursday in preference to Saturday: no good reason to have no delivery 2 days in a row.
As somebody else said, very few people in the post office make $35 an hour.
I think everybody should make at least $25 an hour. Anything less and they're not making enough to support themselves in American society, and the rest of us -- government -- are going to have to make up the difference between what their employer is paying them and what they need to survive.
Minimum wage jobs don't pay enough for people to buy health insurance, so when they get sick, they go to the public hospitals and the rest of us have to pay for it.
If you can't pay your employees $25 an hour, you're an inefficient enterprise and you should go broke and be replaced by somebody who can.
Maybe the question should be "Why is the federal minimum wage set so low?" If it had kept up with inflation from when I was a kid (1960's) it would be in the $12-$14/hour range. It's people with good middle class wages like USPS workers who keep the economy healthy because the have money to spend on more than just the bare necessities.

I was somewhat snarky there, and I do apologize for not seriously engaging with you.
Mail delivery and access to mailboxes is a red herring. The definition of "mail" in that context is "items sent via the USPS" - the restrictions on other services handling mail essentially boil down to "don't pretend to be the national post office if you aren't," not "no one else can ship physical correspondence." They have unique access to the mailboxes because a mailbox is actually defined by its use as a receptacle for items intended to be shipped by the USPS - if you put a box outside your house and mark it as "not a mailbox," then anyone can take and receive packages from it as you contract with them. Have you never seen a newspaper-box mounted under a mailbox? Or, for that matter, a UPS or FedEx drop off box?
Likewise, the "manipulation of prices" - they set the price for their own service. They don't set the price for other package services. And you can damn sure send a letter by FedEx, UPS, etc.
The service that the USPS engages in is essentially delivery services. They compete in the market on packages. That's just fact - there are any number of other providers, and no forced incentive or market control that prevents anyone from using them.
There is more to it, it's not that easy.
As postal service, they're a common carrier. So that means they're not allowed to look into your parcel or to read your letter, and they're not responsible for the content of the delivery (if a mail man delivers a parcel bomb that kills you the mail man is not responsible for that). They also must accept mail from any postal address, and deliver it to any other postal address, at a fixed cost.
Urban delivery is highly profitable, cost per letter is far less than what the sender pays. That makes up for the losses of the rural and wilderness addresses.
Also the postal services are allowed to place mail collection boxes all over the place, giving them a huge competitive advantage over commercial competitors (like FedEx, UPS, etc). In many countries the postal service still has a monopoly on letters - usually defined as postal items less than a certain weight.
And for those unprofitable areas: the USPS will be happy to take FedEx parcels as well. It's a win for both sides. With all the extra parcels it may even become profitable overall, as there is now only one person running that route, instead of two persons, saving a lot on salary and vehicle costs and so.

If you increase the minimum wage, you will increase unemployment among those affected. It's a choice you have to make. Minimum wages are essentially a form of price control, and you get similar results. You can find this info in any basic economics textbook.

I mentioned Finland because they are the most egalitarian country in the world, and one of the wealthiest (and least corrupt). They have a pretty good standard of living.
Hundreds of thousands (maybe millions) of students went through City College of New York free on the taxpayer's dime, and practically free through the New York State University system, the California State University system, and the land grant colleges around the US. They also worked hard, and CCNY graduates like Andrew Grove created the computer revolution. Up to about 1980, you didn't have to put yourself through college on your own dime. If anyone has to put himself through college on his own dime now, he should blame the politicians who changed the rules and made him pay for college, including himself if he was stupid enough to vote for those politicians.
Yeah, I'd rather pay that dishwasher $50,000 a year on unemployment benefits if Denny's can't pay him $25 an hour. I don't want people living in poverty in the US. We don't need it. We're a rich country that benefited from technology (most of it from government-subsidized research). We have rich bastards like Dick Cheney who can well afford to pay more taxes.
If Denny's can't run a restaurant that pays its workers at least $25 an hour, they're incompetent. Let them go out of business. Let's invite German and Swedish fast-food chains in here that can pay their workers $25 an hour and still make a profit.
But they won't, because American workers have turned into a bunch of suckers. Employers don't give you a high income, you have to demand it. Now that the Bible Belt has taken over America, we have a work force that doesn't know how to join a union, or how to demand anything. They're content to be making half as much for the same skills and job as workers in countries like Germany, and content to be facing an old age in poverty when their employers don't need them any more.
If you're not making at least $100,000 a year (and probably more), you'd be better off in a European industrial country like Germany.

How Germany Builds Twice as Many Cars as the U.S. While Paying Its Workers Twice as Much
In 2010, Germany produced more than 5.5 million automobiles; the U.S produced 2.7 million. At the same time, the average auto worker in Germany made $67.14 per hour in salary in benefits; the average one in the U.S. made $33.77 per hour. Yet Germany's big three car companies—BMW, Daimler (Mercedes-Benz), and Volkswagen—are very profitable.
How can that be? The question is explored in a new article from Remapping Debate, a public policy e-journal. Its author, Kevin C. Brown, writes that "the salient difference is that, in Germany, the automakers operate within an environment that precludes a race to the bottom; in the U.S., they operate within an environment that encourages such a race."
There are "two overlapping sets of institutions" in Germany that guarantee high wages and good working conditions for autoworkers. The first is IG Metall, the country's equivalent of the United Automobile Workers. Virtually all Germany's car workers are members, and though they have the right to strike, they "hardly use it, because there is an elaborate system of conflict resolution that regularly is used to come to some sort of compromise that is acceptable to all parties," according to Horst Mund, an IG Metall executive. The second institution is the German constitution, which allows for "works councils" in every factory, where management and employees work together on matters like shop floor conditions and work life.

They sorted it. Put it on a plane. Got it to Hawaii. Then a puddle jumper to Maui. Then sorted again. Put it on a jeep. Drove it to the other end of the island. Then delivered it to the door. Then the new tenant wrote "no longer at this address: please forward". Then a guy picked it up..... \

I see that this spawned a long thread on the efficacy of the minimum wage, but that covers over the more major flaw in this argument: if you are going to make a comparison in compensation, it should not be against the minimum wage but rather to the typical compensation for the same work in the private sector; that is, FedEx, UPS, etc. To compare to the minimum wage is directly implies that postal work would be a minimum wage job in the private sector, which it is clearly not.

(excuse the artistic license...but having written while deployed and to those deployed, I can tell you...the reception of a hand written letter is a wonderous thing, particularly when far out of the way and the nearest net acess might as well be on the moon)
23 an hour, really?
I work in a highly technical field, that controls most of modern everyday life, and keeps people by the thousands safe, the machinery running, the satellite and planes in teh air, etc etc. and the average private sector pay for it is 18-22 an hour; to get 24 and up, you have to do it for the government via gov contracting, typically on a military base.
how in the hell does a "mail sorter" or "clerk" rate that much pay? i could see a case made for managers making more, and carriers going door to door, due to the physical demands.
but basic, not even GED required (in terms of skill level), sorters and clerks? no sir.

Nissan Leaf
Nissan Leaf
The Nissan Leaf is an electric car manufactured by the Nissan Motor Company. The company has said it plans to begin selling the Leaf in the United States in December 2010.
The Leaf has a maximum range of 100 miles per battery charge. Nissan has noted that road conditions, weather and battery age can affect the range. Running the heater and air conditioning also will reduce the car's range.
The car requires no gasoline and has zero tailpipe emissions. It can reach a maximum speed of 90 miles per hour.
The manufacturer's suggested retail price for the Nissan Leaf is $32,780 but tax incentives of up to $7,500 could reduce the cost of the car to about $25,280.
If the car is plugged into a standard household outlet, it could take as long as 20 hours to charge fully. A higher capacity 220/240 Volt outlet will charge the Leaf's battery in about eight hours.
In addition to the United States, the car will be available in December in Japan, the Netherlands and Portugal. Sales are expected to begin in Ireland and the United Kingdom in February 2011.

Rated 4.8 out of 5�by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by Kim Great value for a recreational golfer Looks good on the course and does what you need them to do at an affordable price. The only draw-back I found is that the bag could use more small storage areas for keeping your stuff sorted. It does have a nice insulated pocket for your beverages which is quite handy. April 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Sandi Very happy with selection this is my second set of clubs and I am very happy with this selection! I noticed a few changes in my game...greater performance on the fairway...stayed long and straight and after 18 holes was ready to do another 18! I believe the weight of the clubs are lighter than my other set and I have greater control with every shot. The putter in this set is also alot easier to use than my other set; my short game has shown marked improvement! July 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Cathy Outstanding Experience My experience at Dicks's shopping for golf clubs was outstanding. I was shopping around and dealt with other individuals trying to sell me clubs that would not have been good for me, but excellent for clearing their inventory. I met Buster and he was amazing to work with. He spent the time making sure that my golf clubs were perfect for me. He was so knowledgeable about the product and about fitting women for golf clubs. I love my clubs and have already recommended others to Buster. July 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Suzy Great value. This is my second set of clubs. I love everything about them. They have really improved my golf game. July 4, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5�by Razorback72956 Great value for a great set of clubs This set of clubs have already improved my daughter's game. Great value for a great set of clubs. May 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by Dix Clubs good wrong bag This is a second set of Adams Tight lies, work for me, but add said " with cart bag" and I received a stand bag. Didn't want a stand bag. May 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by LRN Thr product has great features I love the clubs, still trying to conquer the driver. However, I have one issue, the plastic zipper on the rain hood keeps separating and is very difficult to work with. The mfg. should have used a more durable zipper. September 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Bob817 Great buy for the price... The Adams clubs are stylish and the graphite shafts make them very light for my swing.the bag and head covers make for a good looking golf set. Highly recommend them! November 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Laura68 New clubs I have told my wife for years that she should purchase a new set of golf clubs. She was very reluctant, but finally bought these clubs. So far she is still getting use to them, but so far she really loves them. August 21, 2013

Since 1984, everyone at Nidecker has had one common goal : to push the technological envelope of snowboarding. Our design team works closely with our professional riders and technology partners to develop state-of-the-art composite materials and design innovations. Our single-minded pursuit of excellence has allowed us to revolutionize snowboarding…over…and over…and over again. Join us on the cutting edge.
This is our standard poplar core combined with beech reinforcement. The beech on nose and tail provides more pop and better stiffness and torsion. If you like a consistent ride that has a lot of life, this core should be your 'go to' wood core.permalink
Master Core construction is a product of our long history of experimentation in materials and woodcraft. It is the perfect harmony of different wood densities and wood species (poplar, beech, spruce, and paulownia), which lightens the core and results in a superior weight-to-performance-to-power ratio, and an ultra-strong, uber-responsive, yet lightweight, core.permalink
Starting with beech for superior torsion, and poplar for lightness, we've added spruce in the nose and tail, and found the perfect combination of woods to give you more pop than any other snowboard offered today.permalink
Welding wood is the most eco-friendly and technologically advanced way to make a wood core known to man. The wood laminates are not glued, but bonded together through a complex process of friction and vibration. This results in reduced weight, yet increased strength. Nidecker is the only company in the world to master the technology of welding wood.permalink

lifting eye cream that takes serious aim at puff and dark circles
Everything eyes could possibly want: a firming, lifting eye cream that provides lightweight hydration while radically reducing puffiness and dark circles so you look more rested and alert. The cream-gel formula is jammed with anti-wrinkle, antioxidant, anti-aging and anti-pollution protection, plus MCT to drain fluid from undereye tissue and vitamin C and licorice to naturally brighten dark circles and build collagen. Algae, lutein and alpha lipoic acid are also in the mix to fight pollution and brighten eyes. Our take? If there was ever a reset button for your eye area, it's the pump on top of this bottle. 1 oz.
• Great for extreme puffiness
• Tightens and lifts the eye area
• Store in the fridge for enhanced cooling effects

It's that time of year again — the corn is picked, a nip is in the air … and I've lost my wallet again.
My semi-annual wallet losses are so dependable, scientists from Stanford to Walmart University routinely calibrate their instruments based on the cycles of my lost billfold. Usually after a few days of tearing up floorboards, the wallet appears out of nowhere — sort of like New Orleans Saints fans. Sadly, though, this latest disappearing act does not have a happy ending.
It all started last Thursday around 3:30 p.m., when I stopped by the bank in La Grange to make a deposit. During the transaction, my father-in-law walked into the bank and let fly with his classic "Is your barber on strike?" routine.
Honestly, after 22 years, that bit of comedy hasn't lost any of its original charm. At one time, Aaron Sorkin was going to option it for a series, but eventually, he decided he wanted to do something less self-important and settled on "The West Wing."
After bidding adieu to Red Skelton Jr., I put my wallet in my back pocket, walked to my car and drove straight home. I made no stops on the way because The Wife and I were going to paint the town red — or in the terms of newspaper pay, more like a deep mauve.
The Wife and I average about 3.6 dates per year, but this one was special as we were celebrating the 22nd anniversary of our courtship. She looks like a college sophomore and I have a passing resemblance to the guy who can pull his bottom lip up over his nose and honk out a killer version of "Bridge over Troubled Waters" out of alternating nostrils.
Thankfully for me, life isn't fair.
After hosing the kids down, we corralled them into the trunk of my car and drove to my parents' house. We motored onto the driveway and turned the car around so the trunk would be facing their front door. Two minutes of horn-honking later, my folks opened their front door. At this moment, I threw the car in reverse and immediately hit the breaks. This chain of events caused the kids to jettison the trunk and land safely in their grandparents' arms. Seeing they were safe, I put the hammer down and wheeled out of Bucklesberry at an unprecedented 38 mph.
Longtime readers of this space may remember that not so long ago, one of these date nights nearly turned lethal. On our 20th anniversary, I took a garden pea-sized bite of steak and nearly died of asphyxia. To play it safe on this night, I planned to order a rack of air and a glass of hydrogen to wash it down.
Even with the removal of anything that had been birthed from the menu, there was still an 87 percent chance the evening would be ruined by something attributed to me.
Once the evening got going, things went swimmingly, although there was a small brush fire at the commencement of the festivities — somewhere between the bank and the door to my house, I'd lost my wallet.
Not since Gene Hackman's Popeye Doyle ripped a car to pieces to find smuggled drugs has a vehicle been given such a thorough examination. I crawled all over that car but found no wallet. I found a pair of sunglasses, a few Happy Meal toys and Jimmy Hoffa's Blockbuster card — but no wallet.
Just as I was about to rip open the tires with a hunting knife, The Wife calmed me down and we decided to look for the wallet later. I tried, but all during lunch I kept checking my pockets to see if I'd missed something obvious. The waitress noticed that I seemed to be giving myself a physical and asked if everything was alright. Not wanting to come off like a weirdo, I told her I was checking myself for ticks.
Over the next three days, the search for the wallet continued, but to no avail. I relented and started the arduous process of replacing my bank card, driver's license and Bilderberg membership. I use the debit card for most of my financial transactions, such as buying gas, buying gas and occasionally buying gas, so there was only $8 cash in the wallet.
It was a bit of a burden to cancel the debit card, but the idea of someone emptying my bank account and using the money to buy two or three Snickers bars and upwards of two cans of beer was too much for me to handle.
Oddly enough, when I walked into my bank to cancel the debit card, I was told they couldn't do it because I had no identification. I was told I'd have to call an 800 number to cancel, although they could give me money from the account.
"You mean I can't cancel the account without identification, but I can get money from the account without identification?" I asked.
"That's correct," said the pretty lady behind the counter.
After the nice ladies at the bank helped me re-insert my eyes back into their proper sockets, I went to the grocery store. I was visiting a deadbeat friend who works there (more on him Thursday) and while waiting for him, I noticed a peculiar piece of cross-promotion: on a package of 2000 Flushes toilet cleaner I noticed a picture of country singer and happenin' babe Jo Dee Messina.
As it turns out, Messina is the current spokesperson for 2000 Flushes. Now a true hack would say something like, "Wow, her career is really in the toilet!", but not me. Let's face it, a gig is a gig, and everyone with the exception of Rachel Ray is eventually going to spend some time with the toilet.
If every person in the United States gets trained to think of Jo Dee Messina when it's time to visit the water closet, that woman's face will end up on our money; the money that will hopefully be in the blue Ocean Pacific wallet I've just called out of retirement.
I was given the Ocean Pacific wallet for Christmas when I was 15. I can't remember exactly who gave me the wallet, but I've narrowed it down to either Libby Smith or Gail Cottle. Whichever one of you it was, it was greatly appreciated then and especially now in this time of need. It features a little green man on a surf board and it clamps shut via a blue strip of Velcro.
The motto on wallet is the credo I've lived my life by: "Live clean, surf clean."

What is an SSL Certificate?
An SSL certificate is a bit of code on your web server that provides security for online communications. When a web browser contacts your secured web site, the SSL certificate enables an encrypted connection. It's kind of like sealing a letter in an envelope before sending it through the mail.
SSL certificates also inspire trust because each SSL certificate contains identification information. When you request an SSL certificate, a third party (such as Thawte) verifies your organization's information and issues a unique certificate to you with that information. This is known as the authentication process.
Does Authentication Really Matter?
Authentication means that a trusted third party (such as Thawte) has verified the identification information contained in your SSL certificate, assuring customers that your site is actually your site. Concerns about fraud and identity theft have made users more hesitant to share personal information with unfamiliar web sites. However, 86% of online shoppers feel more confident about entering personal information on sites using security indicators, such as a trust mark (Synovate/GMI, 2008).
Thawte is an established certificate authority and Thawte® SSL Certificates include the globally recognized trust mark, the Thawte Trusted Site Seal.
How Do I Make Sure My Users Are Protected By Strong Encryption?
If your users connect with older browsers or you are unsure how they connect, consider SGC SuperCerts with server-gated cryptography (SGC). Most SSL certificates are capable of strong encryption (128-bit or higher). However, without SGC technology, certain older browsers and operating systems cannot step-up to 128-bit encryption.
What Is A Certificate Authority?
An SSL certificate serves as a credential in the online world. Each SSL certificate uniquely identifies a specific domain (such as thawte.com) and a web server. Trust of a credential depends on confidence in the organization that issued it. Certificate authorities have a variety of methods to verify information provided by individuals or organizations. Established certificate authorities, such as Thawte, are well known and trusted by browser vendors. Browsers extend that trust to digital certificates that are verified by Thawte.
Why choose Thawte?
Thawte is trusted by millions of people worldwide. When we issue an SSL certificate, we know that our name will appear next to yours as the trusted third party who verified it. We take that trust seriously and lead the industry with rigorous authentication methods and a global infrastructure to support real-time certificate look-ups.

did u just say that okafor isnt a right fit for this team? dude why do u even bother posting, yup tyson was a MUCH BETTER fit, we dont need a post up center shot blocker cuz we have so many of those rightOriginally Posted by Oh! Captain
What are you talking about? Okafor played 82 games the past two seasons. Meanwhile Chandler has a degenerative foot condition. Go back to your hole seriously you haven't made a single credible post.Originally Posted by Oh! Captain

My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
people who think firing scott was a bad idea......what was good about keeping him? the team was falling apart. we didnt develop rookies. our rotations were terrible. our defensive scheme froma "defensive minded" coach were terrible (see doubling against spurs ans sun when they drained 3s on us), we lost by over 50 at home in playoffs. he has players go from starter to inactive and from inactive to starter....no in between.
whats to like?
do i think our MGMT in the organization is to blame as well? YES
do i think bower and floyd will be bad? yes
do i think we are going to have a terrible season now? yes
will cp3 be upset this season? yes
but it will all be worth it if we can make some trades, and make some good hires....im excited for the personel moves and next season already
If so, does this make CP a coach killer like Jason Kidd? At this point, I wholeheartedly approve of "coach"icide.Originally Posted by Adam the Legend
I still think this will get worse before it gets better (30-35 wins max), and I hope to God Tim Floyd keeps his commentary to xs and os on the sidelines. He's liable to get punched by a player.
Alright, my mistake.Originally Posted by jmaninc68
But Bower didn't pick CP3 and Bernie Bickerstaff chose Emeka.
i dunno i always heard cp3 liked scott?
i wish someone would get an interview with him see what he says.
I wasn't referring to Okafor about the back problems. That was inclined to Peja.Originally Posted by metalzo
Zach Randolph scores and block shots to, maybe we should trade for him.
I really don't see Okafor as a center. He's not a good post defender at all and routinely gets abused by bigger stronger centers
you are correct but to say that bower had no input in those pickups is wrong, thats all i was trying to sayOriginally Posted by Sneakerhead
He's going to say the usual stuff a star player who liked the coach says when this happens. "Sorry to see him go he was a great guy and I learned so much from him but I understand the team had to go in a different direction etc. etc."Originally Posted by WhoDatHornet
you know i was thinking van gundy...but figured i would get flamed.Originally Posted by CP3nDX30

As far as the "real basketball minds" go....why is it that the rest of the NBA thinks he's a joke? There is a difference between being a basketball guy and an NBA basketball guy.
Good post. Maybe now that we have a guy like Floyd we can develop our younger talent instead of just letting the ride the bench. I'm pretty sure Bower didn't like to see our draft picks over the last couple seasons just sitting the bench and only getting some burn in garbage time.Originally Posted by Big Fan
I think West is as good as gone and the sooner the better if we are going to deal him for a player that factors into the future of the team. There are a few contending teams that could really use a player like West, but a soft PF is not what we need now.
Call me crazy, but, uhh... wouldn't this be a good time to give Chad Shinn his first assistant coaching job?
Agreed Okafor would be better served as a 4. That's why I'm hoping the longterm plan is to deal West at the deadline for a young prospect or two and maybe a pick. Then you either put the young prospect (or a lottery pick) as your starting 5 with Okafor at the 4.Originally Posted by Oh! Captain
A very necessary first step was taken today, and I am quite happy about it.

He's not going to publicly throw him under the bus (see Tyson Chandler), but CP can separate friendship and winning. And when it comes down to the game -- and I think we all agree with him --, winning is all that matters on the business end/basketball court.Originally Posted by WhoDatHornet
Now...whether this move actually makes a difference in the W-L record -- only time will tell.

I figured Scott would go, but not so early in the season.
Also, Bower & Floyd disappoint me, as I'm sure it does everyone else. It's almost like we're mailing in the season, less than ten games in.
Assuming this is only a temporary fix and that we'll clean house next season. A good thing in the long run but man, it looks like this season is already over for us.
We don't need to go out and dismantle our whole team. We need a coach who is going to light a fire under these guys and make them want to play. We have ZERO engergy this season. Jeff Van Gundy doesn't take crap from players. He doesn't care if youre michael jordan, if you aren't going hard, you aren't playing. This team needs a harsh wake-up call from a stern coach.
i know bower the head coach but does any1 think floyd will take his spot?
