This is Tanner Foust. He stands alongside Adam Ferrara and Rutledge Wood on the American version of Top Gear telly, drives rallycross cars at an alarming pace, has similar "height restraints" (his words...) to Hammond and rather likes Pagani Zondas. Sounds like a good chap. So we grabbed him for a few minutes at the Frankfurt motor show to get to know him a little better.
As opening gambits go, his was an odd one. "Ipswich. Love it. It's pretty much the home of hoonage right now. The TG team were over to drive the Noble M6 and we loved it - lots of nice trees to blur and great roads. And the car was good, though not quite as quick as my Fiesta."
Yep. Tanner Foust likes Ipswich and has a Fiesta that's quicker than a Noble M6. Though his car's not an off-the-forecourt effort - Tanner's a bit of a wheelman, you see. He's won three X Games gold medals, two Formula Drift national championships and is responsible for the stunt driving in Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Dukes of Hazzard, Bourne Ultimatum, Iron Man 2, and the remake of Red Dawn. Oh, and he recently set the world distance record for a four-wheeled vehicle jump at the 2011 Indy 500 (332 feet, fact fans).
His latest endeavor - driving a 575hp Ford Fiesta in the Global Rally Cross series - seems to be going rather well, too. "At one point I was leading the championship, but I just love driving that thing. It's ridiculousness. It goes from 0-100kmh in 2.0 seconds. Two point zero seconds. Brutal. The Stig would love it.
"And no, I'm not the British Stig, Or the American one. But I guess I'm a bit like some of the UK presenters. I'm probably eight per cent James May - I'm kind of nerdy - 22 per cent Hammond - we have similar height constraints - 30 per cent Clarkson and 50 per cent Stig. But purely because I love driving. I'm not the Stig. Really. I'm not...
"But I do love the British show. I grew up in Scotland and watched a lot of UK TV like Blackadder and Spitting Image so I love the sense of humour. England's great, too. The varied weather's hilarious and you get to drive on the wrong side of the road. It's like growing up as a skier and then being forced to snowboard - you feel like you're constantly on the brink of death. Awesome.
"British cars are kind of cool as well. I've loved the old Jag XKs ever since I saw the rich guy from Porky's driving his 120 Roadster. But really, I'm a big import fan. My first car was an '83 Honda Civic wagon, which I ended up rolling seven times. Then I had a Honda CRX Si, followed by a 4000S Audi Quattro. I've had Euro cars ever since.
"The daily driver's an M3, which is perfect for LA - fun, fast, quiet and comfortable - and I've got a 6.2-litre Ford Raptor, which guzzles the fuel down. The MPG makes me a little sick - it's 14-15 tops - but I love it. It's great for the awful LA roads. I've also got a poo-brown 1976 912, which is what got me into cars in the first place. It used to be my Dad's and I thought it was the fastest thing in the world when I was a kid. In reality, it's slow as hell - 90bhp, four-pot motors aren't so great. There's a 911 Turbo in the garage, too. That's a multi-talented thing.
"But I love getting to drive different cars for the show. The Pagani Zonda was a spectacular experience. The Ford GT remains a favourite, too - though I've not driven one on the show yet. You've got to have respect for it - so much grip and SO much power.
"Driving the cars is just one part of putting Top Gear together, though. But the rest of it's just as cool. Now we're into the second series it seems like it's developing its own character - we've started actually annoying each other, which I think is making it better to watch.
"We've shared a lot of fantastic experiences, too. My favourite has to be the LA to Vegas drive. We made the journey in a Jeep without touching a pavement - something I've always wanted to do.
"I like the international stuff, too. Our trip to Alaska for the tough truck film was a lot of fun. Maybe we'll come to England again soon. Hopefully we'll get to go to Ipswich. Love that place."
You can see more from Top Gear USA by clicking on these blue words. And we've got something in the pipeline for UK fans of TG USA too...
Meet Top Gear USA's Tanner Foust
Hey, look! It's that bloke off American TG! We talk Ipswich, season 2 and "poo-brown" Porsche 912s.
This is Tanner Foust. He stands alongside Adam Ferrara and Rutledge Wood on the American version of Top Gear telly, drives rallycross cars at an alarming pace, has similar "height restraints" (his words...) to Hammond and rather likes Pagani Zondas.

What's wrong with you? It's an old game so it's not compatible with the latest system. The uploader put in a lot of effort. If it doesn't work it doesn't work. There is no need to use swear words. At least pretend to have a bit of class.

Kelsey Schile had a season-high seven blocks against Idaho State
Nov. 18, 2011
For two teams already eliminated from the Big Sky Conference tournament, Montana and Idaho State played a match deserving of the postseason Friday night at the West Auxiliary Gym. After two hours and 11 minutes, the Grizzlies finally came away with a 25-16, 22-25, 25-23, 29-31, 15-13 victory, their fifth straight win at home.
Montana came back from a 23-19 deficit with six straight points to win set three, Idaho State fought off nine (nine!) match points in the fourth set before winning, and the Grizzlies broke free from a 7-7 deadlock in the fifth set with four straight points to finally get a winning margin.
With the win Montana (10-13, 7-8 BSC) pulls even with Idaho State (14-13, 7-8 BSC) for fifth place in the Big Sky Conference standings with one night of regular-season matches remaining. The Grizzlies can assure themselves of a fifth-place finish with a win Saturday night over Weber State (3-25, 3-12 BSC).
"We want to make sure we finish the season strong. Both teams did tonight," UM coach Jerry Wagner said.
"At this time of year we want to be playing as hard as we were the first day of the year so that we can train ourselves to gear up every week.
"The kids did a nice job of battling in practice all week, so I knew we were going to battle well tonight."
To their credit, both teams fought like their seasons were on the line.
With the match tied at one set apiece, Idaho State went up 23-19 in the third set. Montana responded with a kill from Brooke Bray, an assisted block by Bray and Kelsey Schile, a kill by Schile and a service ace by Kayla Reno to even the score at 23.
A bad set by ISU setter Lori Mendenhall made it 24-23, and Amy Roberts finished off the set with a kill.
But that had nothing on the fourth set.
Montana led 24-19 and had five straight opportunities to close out the match, but Idaho State held on with a large assist from the Griz hitters. After two ISU kills made it 24-21, Montana had three straight attack errors to tie the score at 24 and give Idaho State new life.
The Bengals would fend off four more match points before pulling out a 31-29 victory.
With the fifth set tied 7-7, Bray and Schile paired up on another block to spark a decisive four-point run. Bray and Schile also added kills as Montana pulled away.
The lead reached 14-10 on a Roberts kill, and once again Idaho State fought back with three straight points to make it 14-13. A Mendenhall attack error finally ended play for the night.
The match's numbers were even across all categories except blocks. Montana finished with 13.0 team blocks to Idaho State's 8.0, and that proved to be the difference.
"I credit our defense, and not just our block," Wagner said. "Idaho State found some things that were working for them, but we made some adjustments and started getting digs on some important plays down the stretch."
Schile, who led Montana with 15 kills and three service aces, finished with a season-high seven blocks to lead the Grizzlies' effort at the net. Bray had six blocks, Brittany Quick five.
Megan Murphey had 18 digs, Roberts 16.
Montana's five attacking players all finished with between 10 and 15 kills. Schile had 15 on .212 hitting, Quick 12 on .276 hitting, Reno 12, Bray 11 on .240 hitting and Roberts 10.
Kortney James finished with 47 assists and also added to the team's offensive attack. She had six kills on .714 hitting.
Vanessa Muir led Idaho State with 16 kills on .394 hitting and five blocks.
Montana and Weber State meet at 7 p.m. Saturday at the West Auxiliary Gym. The Wildcats lost in three sets at Montana State Friday night.

Saving the Democratic Party: The mutuality of reform and change-the-game strategies
Yes, Runner is right on one score: the role of government is essential. And now is a moment when it is urgently needed. That means we must reform the political system, yet once again. Ever since the elections of 1896 the progressive mission has been to be the center of coalitions that reform the quasi-democratic American political system that elitist corporate power put in place in that fateful election. (Hat-tip to Larry Goodwyn.) As such it has been and still is the primary countervailing force to that elitist corporate power.
At the same time, that never has been and never will be enough to establish a fundamentally democratic political economics. That is, we must also focus as intently on a long-term strategy of changing the existing game, rather than narrowly focusing on a progressive strategy, which is, in effect, a Sisyphean project. (See Amy Dean's response.) We did in the '30s. Came back in the '60s to do more. Now have to push the stone up from where it was in the '20s.
Runner's progressive agenda is basically solid, and some of the additions suggested are good ones. Several of the commentators on her/his article pointed out that it was strategically weak. I agree. The reform approach needs to be thoroughly grounded in grassroots organizing. (See responses by Ellison, Flacks, Lander and Harris. Also Warren's.)
Voilà! A more radical change-the-game strategy for deep, long-term change also must be thoroughly bottom-up and deeply into race/ethnicity, class, and gender. (See Dean's and Fletcher's responses.) The grassroots can be the space where progressive grassroots groups can work with change-the-game groups such as the Occupy and alternative economic movements. There is so much common cause between the two different but reinforcing strategies. W.E.B Du Bois's "double consciousness." (Again, Fletcher's response.) That is, if both can move beyond the usual territorial rivalries and competition for scarce resources.
Here are eight strategic principles for a change-the-game strategy:
1. Change the game, not simply the rules of the game.
2. Reconnect economics and politics all the up and all the way down.
3. Think "movement" all the time.
4. Build regional webs of alternative economic enterprises into reciprocal chains of production-and-consumption that connect producers to retailers to consumers in ongoing communication.
5. Ground this alternative economy in people's lives through base-community building and local mediating institutions.
6. Link base-communities, their mediating institutions, and second-tier institutions throughout the region to each other.
7. Think in terms of generations, not years, not even decades.
8. Develop grassroots transformative processes that enable people to empower themselves personally and collectively.

'Standoff' affects public access to Capitol building
People transacting business at the Capitol were asked to be patient with the current security setup which has restricted entry to the public since mid December.
"I'm asking the public to bear with the inconvenience because peace and order will eventually return to the Capitol," acting Cebu Gov. Agnes Magpale said.
The main wooden entrance doors to the Capitol building remain closed since Dec. 19, when Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia was served a suspension order and defied it, calling on followers to come to the Captiol to show their support.
Only one entrance door at the rear of the building is used by Capitol employees reporting for work and the general public.
The compound still has only one vehicle entrance gate near the Governor's Office but direct access to the east wing where Garcia stays is limited to her family, staff, visitors and media men.
Not a few taxpayers complained about the inconvenience.
Long lines of Capitol employees wait for their turn to register their time card in the bundy clock.
"What happened to the Capitol? Why are we being made to suffer the inconvenience when we're just trying to process our papers?" said one taxpayer who requested anonymity.
Magpale said she already ordered the police to open the main door entrance and another door leading to the Palace of Justice.
The suspended governor is still holed up in her office 18 days after the Department of Interior and Local Governments (DILG) issued the suspension order on her.
The hall leading to her office is occupied by her supporters. The door leading to the area is covered by scotch tape with a chain attached to it.
The plywood board nailed to the windows of the governor's office were lowered but supporters say these can be mounted again to stop any hostile force from forcibly entering to get Garcia.
A distance from the governor's office, policemen stand as sentries in a corner of the Capitol building.
Less than 50 policemen in three shifts remain posted in sensitive offices like the treasurer's office and cash division at the request of Acting Governor Magpale.
Magpale said she hopes Garcia realizes the detrimental effects of her continued presence in her office on transactions and public access to the Capitol.
Governor Garcia is awaiting the Court of Appeals' decision on her petition for a temporary restraining order against the suspension order issued by the Office of the President. A hearing is set on Jan. 10 in Manila. /Correspondent REnan Alangilan

The Supreme Court today sought responses from the Centre and others including Delhi and Uttar Pradesh governments on a PIL seeking a direction to ensure free entry for common public in parks maintained by them.
"Issue notice. Replies be filed within ten weeks," a bench comprising Chief Justice R M Lodha and justices Kurian Joseph and R F Nariman said.
The court was hearing the PIL filed by Delhi-based NGO 'Voice of India' through its Chairman Dhanesh Ieshdhan.
It alleged that the entry of common persons in public gardens like Ambedkar Park at Noida in UP and the park in front of the Red Fort here is banned and it is against the fundamental rights guaranteed to the citizens in the Constitution.
The bench also issued notices to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) and various central ministries including Urban Development and Home Affairs on the PIL.
he plea has sought a direction to Delhi and UP governments "to remove the ban for the genial entry in these public parks (Ambedkar Park and the park in front of the Red Fort) to the members of the public in a free of cost manner upon reasonable terms."
"Pass a mandamus or order commanding the respondents Nos. 1 and 6 to ensure the proper safety of the visitors as well as to secure the sanctity of these public places in the forms of all parks or gardens of UP and Delhi under the surveillance of DGP of UP and the Commissioner of Police of Delhi in the manner that all these public parks, where large number of people from all walks of life visit everyday, may not become a place of debauchery or a rendezvous for the anti-social elements," it said.
It has also sought a direction to authorities to ensure free of cost drinking water and hygienic public convenience facilities to the visitors of such parks.
The plea terms the situation as "humiliating" for common visitors who have have been banned from entering such places by concerned states governments which wear the apron of democratic values and socialism but in actual practice kick the spirit of democracy.

Salgaocar pounded former champions Dempo SC 2-0 in the 20th round of the I-League at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Fatorda, on Wednesday. The last time they beat Dempo was back in 2011.
After being held 1-1 in their first leg in Mapusa, Salgaocar netted twice in the first session through Bikash Jairu and Darryl Duffy.
With this win, Salgaocar climbed to the second position with 33 points, four points behind table-toppers Bengaluru FC (37 points). Both the teams improved their game in the second leg of the tournament scoring seven goals and conceding only one in the last four matches.
"Our two early goals set the tempo for us," said Salgaocar coach Derrick Pereira, who also praised goalkeeper Karanjeet Singh for his crucial saves.
" I would say Karanjeet was outstanding, and the save in the 44th minute was the game changer, despite the fact that we were leading 2-0. T hat could have turned the table on us," he added.
Dempo coach Arthur Papas said: "We had possession during entire game but could not convert the chances. I think we played well and were unfortunate to lose. The credit should also go to Salgaocar who made most of their chances."

Continuous radon monitoring in soil and groundwater is one of the useful methods in earthquake prediction process. There are many published studies on geochemical precursors to seismic activity, both reporting the detection of validated precursory phenomena. The research on geochemical precursory algorithms is aimed at defining quantitative relations between seismogenic parameters and endogenetic components. This paper presents a new analytical algorithm that can be used to estimate optimum location and magnitude of coming earthquakes based on variations in radon concentration or any other geochemical precursors. In a real life application of this algorithm, radon monitoring network for Kerman province has been designed and the resulting data have been investigated. This practical example corroborates the proposed algorithm as well and the resulting seismogenic parameters e.g. location and magnitude have been obtained within their acceptable ranges. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm emphasizes on hot-springs which have the most effect on results around target zone.

NASA Goddard Brings the Moon to Earth
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20081007/38461LOGO)
"Return to the Moon" takes imagery and data sets from the Apollo, Clementine, and other missions and projects them on a six-foot sphere. The results give the startling impression of the moon hanging magically in the center of darkened theaters. During the five-minute film, viewers will witness NASA's legacy of lunar exploration and come to understand the rationale for the Agency's ambitious plans to return to the moon, beginning with a robotic mission called the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter or LRO.
Both LRO and the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, or LCROSS mission are featured in the new project. The LRO spacecraft will provide scientists with detailed maps of the lunar surface and enhance our understanding of the moon's topography, lighting conditions, mineralogical composition and natural resources. LRO will spend at least one year in low polar orbit around the moon, collecting detailed information about the lunar environment and providing key data sets to enable a human return to the moon. The lunar orbiter is managed by NASA Goddard. LCROSS, managed by NASA's Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif. will impact the lunar surface in its search for water ice.
The LRO/LCROSS mission is scheduled to launch Spring 2009.
Science On a Sphere is an exciting new projection technology developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). "Return to the Moon" is the latest in a series of films from the Goddard Television team, employing this system, using novel techniques and technology of its own for making spherical movies. Goddard released the world's first major spherical film in 2006 called "Footprints."
"Spherical filmmaking brings the moon and planetary science down to Earth," said
According to Starobin, there are many ways to project data onto a sphere. The technique he and his colleagues use take a massive images – many times larger than HDTV pictures – and slice them into four sections. Each section is then sent to one of four projectors arranged around the spherical movie screen. A central computer coordinates with dedicated computers at each projector to blend the sections into a seamless image that wraps completely around the sphere.
"Goddard's Scientific Visualization Studio takes enormous, highly-technical data sets from various NASA missions and turns them into stunning imagery, while the Goddard Television team takes complex scientific subjects and translates them into succinct, compelling features. Just as NASA prides itself at pushing back the boundaries of exploration, we take pride in inventing new ways to communicate the results of that exploration," said Starobin.
"Return to the Moon" opens around the country on

ALL AROUND HER WAS THE ROAR OF THE helicopter and the smell of her own lost blood. Fourteen-year-old Patricia Bowen focused her frightened eyes on the flight nurse crouched over her head. "Am I going to die?" she asked. Patricia had been stabbed twelve times and was bleeding from her neck, chest, abdomen, and hands. As the helicopter flew at 130 miles per hour toward Houston's Hermann Hospital, nurse Georgie Brown grabbed IV's and began pumping fluids into Patricia. "No, honey," replied Georgie. She carefully locked eyes with her patient. "Hang in there. Don't give up."
Slightly more than half an hour earlier, Patricia had answered the door of her middle-class home amid tall pine trees in northwest Houston. A fifteen-year-old boy stood before her. He asked her for a cold drink. Reluctantly, she agreed. Once they were in the house, the boy grabbed her, held her to his chest, and slit her throat with a knife. Again and again he stabbed her. Twice she felt the knife rip into her chest. When she held up her hands to protect herself, he slashed her fingers. Then he fled through the front door. Patricia stumbled after him, collapsing on the front lawn. A neighbor ran over, took one look at Patricia's bloodstained body, and telephoned 911 for help.
Georgie Brown's pager went off with a high-pitched whine at 2:19 p.m. on December 10. Within five minutes, Georgie, paramedic Guy Stevenson, and pilot Taylor Jordan converged on the helipad of Hermann Hospital and were soon lifting off. In flight, Georgie and Guy checked their equipment, popped their fingers into rubber gloves, and listened to information via radio about Patricia's condition from an Emergency Medical Service ground crew. What they heard from the para-medics wasn't good. Patricia's blood pressure was dangerously low, between fifty and sixty, and there were decreased breath sounds in her left lung. She was bleeding to death. Inside the helicopter, Georgie's and Guy's adrenaline levels soared like those of a couple of runners trapped behind the starting line. Nothing focuses the mind and heightens the physical senses as does the battle with death.
It took only sixteen minutes by air to reach Patricia. The helicopter floated over her neighborhood, dodging pine trees and electrical wires, until it came to rest in the middle of her street. Patricia was rolled on a stretcher through the rear of the helicopter, and soon she was en route to Hermann Hospital. A chorus of beepers signaled her arrival to a team of trauma surgeons, surgical and emergency room residents, respiratory therapists, nurses, and x-ray employees. Suddenly the room filled with all kinds of noise. The electric door swung open. Georgie and Guy rolled Patricia in; heavy machinery was being pushed around. Over the roar came the authoritative sound of Georgie's voice: "I have here a fourteen-year-old white female who has been stabbed approximately twelve times."
The trickiest part of the surgery was repairing two punctures near Patricia's heart. Two surgeons worked side by side. One of them was Dr. James H. "Red" Duke, the director of emergency services and the medical director of Life Flight at Hermann Hospital whose health messages have been syndicated on television and have made him a celebrity. "The principle at work here is for everybody to hold their hosses," said Duke, as he reached into Patricia's chest, rolled her heart over, and then held his finger on a wound beneath her heart to stop the flow of blood. He looked like a highly skilled plumber plugging a leak. Dr. Neel Ware, the other trauma surgeon, stitched up a nearby hole. Together they worked on closing the other ten.
The next morning, Duke dropped by the intensive care unit. "How ya feelin', Patricia?" he drawled. "Pretty good," she replied. Duke peered at her through thick bifocals and twirled his heavy moustache. "That's good, honey, because ya sure got a hell of an airing out yesterday."
Patricia Bowen looked at Duke blankly. She had no idea how lucky she was to be alive. She was lucky to be among the 40 percent of Texans who have access to a 911 system. She was lucky to live near a fully staffed trauma hospital. Most of all, she was lucky to have gotten a ride on the $1.7 million helicopter that saved her life.
"IT'S AN ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY THAT THE PUBLIC continues to deny the presence of the epidemic called trauma," fumed Red Duke. "We are in mass de- NI-al, and believe me, de- NI-al ain't no river in Egypt." Duke was seated near the coffeepot at the Life Flight offices at Hermann Hospital, haranguing on his favorite subject—the crisis of trauma-related injuries in Texas. To judge by the state budget, trauma doesn't even exist. No state money goes to pay for treating trauma. By comparison, about $10 million of state and federal money is spent on AIDS. "Trauma in Texas is sort of like the elephant in the living room," said Duke. "Everybody talks about the elephant, feeds it, and cleans up after it, but nobody really sees it or does anything about it."
What has Duke worried is that trauma is the number one killer of people under 44. Not only are trauma injuries increasing, but the number of hospitals in which trauma patients can be treated is dwindling. So many Texas hospitals have closed that in effect we have a hub-and-spoke system of hospital care: Patients who were once treated near the scene of accidents now have to be airlifted to larger, hub hospitals in big cities.
Helicopters can make the difference in such cases. In suburban Austin a teenage driver loses control of his car and suffers a head injury, a broken pelvis, and a broken leg when his car rolls down an embankment. A helicopter arrives within a few minutes, paramedics place a tube down his wind-pipe so he can breathe, and half an hour after the accident, he is in a hospital and on an operating table.

The Pulsation Properties of the Double-Mode RR Lyrae Variable
V79 in Messier 3
pdf ps
Christine M. Clement
Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON,
M5S 3H8, Canada
Mike Thompson
725 Ridgecrest Drive, Colfax, CA 95713
Received March 5, 2007; revised March 21, 2007; accepted March 22, 2007
Abstract: The double-mode RR Lyrae variable V79 in M3 was observed on seven
nights in April 2006 with a 14-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. A total of 275 CCD
frames were obtained. An analysis of these observations indicates that the first-
overtone period P1 was 0.3590 day, the fundamental period P0 was 0.4834 day, and
the amplitude ratio A1/A0 was 1.00 +/- 0.22. These results imply that the fundamental
period increased and that the strength of the fundamental mode oscillations relative
to the first-overtone may have increased since 1998 when the star was previously
observed. The data also indicate that the periods may fluctuate from cycle to cycle.

My Take on Yonex Poly tour spin string
Ok i played with new poly for good 4-6 hours now and i am finally now getting a good feel for it. This is a textured 5 sided poly from Yonex. Yonex makes great products so i decided to give it a try.
Yonex RDIS 100--- 53 lbs full bed.
1st of all, on the serves it is a Great string. Good control, and power on serves is there when you need it. My kick serves really jumped up, even more so than other textured strings like RPM blast.
Feel department really shined. I had problem with feel with bluegear but not with this string, great control on drop shots.
Groundies department. this is where i had some issues. Control is about average but power was lacking. My groundies stood up and saids hit me. I was getting good topspin but it didn't penetrate. This is a problem because if your Topspin groundies sits up during rallie, your opponent will pound it.
Volleys. Not bad with good feel and placement. but once again lacked punch due to lack of power on the string bed.
Overall, Nice string from Yonex with ton of spin potential. Feel was better than bluegear. but this string really lacked penetration on the groundies. Maybe i should go and pump more iron. but won't be switching to this string at this time. but guys with more powerful groundies and guys that love Blue gear string, this string maybe worth trying out. Tons of topspin with decent control. and better feel.
I have a set waiting to be strung up. I like the color the YPTS though. Have you tried the Poly Tour Pro 125?
how do you think blue strings look with a red racquet?
2 hours in of testing.
I'm very impressed with its control, topspin and ball bite.
For me almost like poly tour hs but a little more power.
Looks beautiful on my ezone xi's .
More feedback to come soon.
finally someone did a review of these strings. i currently use poly tour pro 130 in my vcore 98 d at 60 in one and 58 on the other. i was thinking of trying n potentially switching to the poly tour spin, seeing as it is shaped, unlike the round poly tour pro. i used to ur alu rough which is textured to get a bit more spin in my kblade tours. for $9 u cant go wrong. yonex is quality. to answers skye's question, it's a stiff string (maybe because i string it at 60) but i haven't gotten any arm pains. get good spin, but probably not as much spin as a textured string like the poly tour spin. the yellow also looks cool. so u recommend the poly tour spin? how is it compared to alu rough, seeing as u use luxilon.
I used to use many luxilon strings, Alu Rough, alu fluoro, big banger original, even big banger ace (doesn't last me more than 4 hours)..., I can tell you won't get better control and spin from any of these luxilon above, guaranteed.
I'm only at 3 hours right now, the poly tour HS is way better than big banger original as well, similar as well.
More comments to follow.
I want to try it, but I think it would look like crap with or racquets nostradamus. light blue with blood red, not the path to best looking setup.
I have it strung up at 45 in my EZONE Xi 98. I love it. Mellows out the powerful racquet. Control and power is enough for me. I'm pushing 2 weeks with the same set of strings. It didn't feel like there was a break in time needed, either.
I'm a baseliner and it felt good from the back. At the net, the string was fine (I'm not a volleyer). Serves felt good and my return game was excellent with the strings (when I didn't shank the ball). I even lost the dampener once and didn't mind hitting w/o a dampener - something I never do with polys.
I plan on buying more sets of this string!
I just played with a full bed of Poly Tour Spin. It feels good!!!
I strung them at 53/50 lbs on my Vcore 100s, and they felt plush, no boardy feel whatsoever.
Spin and control was really good, I could feel the strings biting into the ball. Wow... Power is perfect, just enough for me.
If it stays this good for a couple of weeks. I am getting rid of my gut/poly combo (saves me a bundle).
You guys should try it, it's only $8.95 on TW. A different feel to ALU Power or CoF, but I am really liking it a lot.
After around 10 hours of hitting with the Yonex Poly Tour Spin I will make a switch.
TopSpin is off the charts and I noticed that it sustains its ball bite for quite a bit of time, much better than Tecnifibre Black Code, or Luxilon Alu Power Spin, you can produce a really heavy ball, control low slices from opponents that skid and retrieve a nice ball with rpm, i make some really acute angles due to the ability of the string to grab when I on the side of the ball and of course because of the racquet which is light powerful with open pattern that allows me to play how I like it and hit shots that I am not able with smaller head sizes and tighter string patterns.
Feel isn't like Luxilon, because it is different, but it has a nice blend of comfort but not too soft, touch and good stiffness to provide the control, also keeping the playability consistent for longer time than Luxilon BB Original or Luxilon Fluoro, 2 string that I used quite a bit.
Tension maintenance is very good, I didn't expect the string not move at all, but it moves a little which doesn't bother me, again I use Yonex Ezone Xi, 100 sq in, 16x18, so I expect and understand it will move a little.
To me this is a great string, much better cost per playability there is, at 8.95 it is unbeatable what you get from it.
I will keep the poly Tour HS on my Ezone Xi Team Plus, the spin machine only to tame the power and spin a bit more.
So, after a week and a half of this string, it's starting to get "pingy." Anyone else notice this? I usually string every 2 weeks, anyway.
In case anyone is wondering how the poly tour spin really plays in comparison with SPPP.
Power, SPPP has it more
Spin, YPTS is better
Control, YPTS
SPPP has more pop and a livelier feel than YPTS
YPTS seems to go easier on the arm when struck off center. I got micro vibrations with SPPP
hey i just popped my poly tour pro in my vcore98d today (much was strung less than a month ago urrg -_-) i'm thinking of trying the poly tour spin now. im really surprised because my string is the 130 gauge n its supposed to be more durable than the 125. i string it at 60. think i should go down? had it at 58 before. maybe 55 even tho the range is 50-65. thx
Poly Tour Spin will really help you with generating more spin ball bite and control, this is the best poly overall in my opinion right now.

Teased and pleased
Reviewed: February 19, 2015 by DrippingWife, a Straight Married Female
With Valentine's coming up, we both decided to buy this game.
Thanks, LH, for the product information and fast delivery.
The game itself looks great and the rules are simple to follow.
Also comes with blindfold and cloth tie, which is great for beginners to play, as we both love bondage we pull out our suitcase full of toys to add to the game (not joking about the suitcase). :-)
With wine in one hand and dice in the other, we played this game well over four hours. We had fun, took our time and broke some of the games rules. :-)
After playing this game, I feel less awkward about roleplay. Had a great Valentine's night being tied, teased, spanked, using my skills to get out of a parking ticket, and the cards at the end of the game had hubby as a doctor.
Well made game that we will be playing again.
- Pros
- Great game with well informed cards.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Fantastic fun.

Real mood setter
Reviewed: January 11, 2015 by Bond. James,Bond, a Straight Going Steady Male
This is the first erotic board game we have tried as a couple, and we were both expecting this to maybe be a bit boring. We were both wrong, so very wrong. After a few rolls of the dice, we were already laughing, relaxed and experimenting.
We have played this game a good ten times so far, and every time we end up doing something new and exciting. This game really provides a great deal of variety and replay ability, which is important for a board game.
I think this game is perfect for a couple looking for a little BDSM experimentation, but not sure quite how to break the ice. I would definitely recommend this game, although I would suggest also getting the Tracey Cox Supersex Beginner's Soft Bondage Kit as we found that once we got started, all we wanted was more and this kit is a good complement for this game.
As far as quality goes, everything from the box to the dice are finished well and are clearly high quality. We've played this quite a few times and as you expect, it can suffer a bit of wear and tear. Although, so far, it has held up very well.
Would definitely recommend.
- Pros
- Variety. Quality.
- Cons
- Bindings are a little rough.
- Bottom line
- Definitely a good buy, and sure to result in more than a few exciting evenings.

Spiced it up
Reviewed: July 12, 2014 by stixy
This is the best game I have tried.
I bought it for my husband as an anniversary gift to spice thing up a bit and boy did it work.
The game has to sets of cards the first set is quiet tame and we got bored with them before the end of the game, so we switched to the high intensity ones and it was brilliant.
You have the choice of you want to play. Very exciting.
- Pros
- Freedom to play your own way.
- Cons
- Bit disappointed with the tie.
- Bottom line
- Brilliant game for firing up your sex drive.
