This drawing holder nut wrench is made up of a rounded hand grip, a socket body, a socket, and a way to limit torque. The torque is limited by the small size of the hand grip. The hand grip has smoothly rounded projections on it to give a comfortable grip and a shallow mortise in its top shaped to match and aligned with the socket beneath it. The mortise reveals the orientation of the socket beneath without having to turn the wrench over to look at the socket itself. The socket has a generally elongated hexagonal cross section and is a straight sided hole cut upwardly into the bottom of the socket body.
1. A torque limiting drawing holder nut wrench comprising:
a. a disc shaped hand grip having any number of rounded cusps interposed with swales around the outer edge of said disc;
b. provision of a torque transfer limiting means; this supplied by the lack of any extended lever arm;
c. a socket body substantially joined to said hand grip and having a generally cylindrical shape and providing sufficient space within it to accommodate a wing nut socket and having a generally flat and parallel top and bottom;
d. A wing nut socket of a generally elongated hexagonal cross-section said socket being a straight sided hole cut perpendicularly up into said socket body; said socket's cross-sectional shape being more particularly defined as a six sided figure wherein four of the sides are of equal length and the other two are each of generally half the individual length of said four sides; these two short sides being placed opposite and parallel to each other and at 105 degree angles connected at each end to two of the four equal sides; the four equal sides being joined to each other by generally 150 degree angles where they join together; this figure then being a generally oval shape but having six straight sides and being approximately twice as long as it is wide;
e. further comprising in the hand grip surface a shallow mortise aligned with and shaped to match the socket cross-section shape below it in the socket body to allow socket alignment over a wingnut without looking at the socket itself.
2. A wingnut socket wrench comprising:
a. a rounded disc-shaped hand grip component having a series of shallow, rounded, projections along its edge to give a comfortable hand grip, the size of the hand-grip being limited to permit operation only by grasping said hand-grip over its top and having fingers and thumb curving down over the sides between the shallow projections thus limiting the torque being delivered to the socket; said hand grip component further comprising in the hand grip surface a shallow mortise aligned with and shaped to match the socket cross-section shape below it to allow socket alignment over a wingnut without visual reference to the socket itself;
b. a generally cylindrical socket body component substantially joined to said handgrip component having a flat bottom surface and sized to space the human knuckles gripping said handgrip a safe distance above the wing nut device being tightened;
c. a socket cavity within said socket body; being of a generally oval cross-section, more particularly an elongated hexagonal opening composed of six sides, said sides opposing each other in parallel pairs wherein four of the six sides are of equal length and the other two are each of approximately half the individual length of said four sides; these two short sides each abut an adjacent longer side at each end at approximately 105 degree angles, the other end of each longer side being joined to an adjacent long side at approximately 150 degree angles; said cavity having straight sides; these being perpendicular to said bottom surface of said socket body.
1. Field of Invention
This invention relates to nut wrenches, specifically to those used to manipulate wingnuts and drawing holder nuts by hand in an office setting.
2. Description of Prior Art
Wing nuts have been used extensively in the past as a direct interface between mechanical threaded members and the people who use them eliminating the need for other tools. This often comes up in Engineering and Architectural offices where drawing holders need tightening and wingnuts are provided to make the human hand an adequate tool to do the job. The intended design is sufficient to tighten most drawing holders to hold ten to fifteen "blue print" drawings, but many orifice applications require holding as many as 100 to 200 drawings in one drawing holder! This has given rise to a variety of wingnut and drawing holder nut wrenches that in some measure fill the need to provide sufficient tightening to hold the desired number of prints in each print holder. This is further complicated by the introduction of large paper copy machines that can produce large drawings on "plain paper"; which has a much lower coefficient of friction. The reintroduction of tools into the drawing holder picture somewhat defeats the purpose of the wingnuts, but they can still be tightened enough to hold the drawings from moving until the tool can be used to provide full tightening.
U.S. Pat. No. Des. 260,473 issued to B. W. Rust provided a wrench with enough leverage to tighten and twist off or strip the threads of most drawing holder bolts and had the additional disadvantage that it could slip under the wing nut when it was partially loosened.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,685,360 issued to Gaylord W. McCurdy solved the problem of the wrench slipping under the nut, but still gives generally a long lever-arm enabling the user to twist off or strip the threads of most drawing holder bolts with relative ease.
Both of these wrenches can easily scratch the print holders as they tighten them and both leave the socket and wing nut exposed while being used. This style of tool also gives the appearance of being part of a mechanics operation and is somewhat incongruous in the office setting.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a hand operated drawing holder nut wrench that limits the torque applied to drawing holder nuts. It is a further object to produce a wrench that is pleasing to the eye in an office setting. A further object is to provide a drawing holder nut wrench that can be used easily and conveniently and can tighten these nuts to the appropriate torque. Further objects and advantages of my invention will become apparent from a consideration of the drawings and ensuing description of it.

FIG. 2 shows a simplest embodiment in a side view.
FIG. 3 shows a bottom view.
FIG. 4 shows a top view.

26: screws
FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a wrench according to the invention with hand grip 10, substantially attached to socket body 12, and socket 14, visible in socket body 12.
FIGS. 2 and 3 show two elevational views with screws 26, fastening hand grip 10 to socket body 12. Alignment indicator 24, is shown in the top of hand grip 10, and socket 14 is shown cut into the bottom of socket body 12.
FIG. 4 shows alignment indicator 24 cut as a shallow mortise into handgrip 10.
This simple embodiment by it's bulky, compact form limits the user to wrist action to apply torque to the wing nut. This shape provides very little leverage and so the user is more aware of the amount of torque being applied to the nut. A strong person can still twist off a print holder bolt, but can develop a more precise sense of just how much torque the bolt will take before it will break. It also lends itself to construction in hardwood which when highly polished yields an appearance which suits well the office setting.
This embodiment includes an alignment indicator, namely a shallow mortise of the socket's shape, that indicates to the user the orientation of the socket beneath it without turning the wrench over. This embodiment could also be constructed in injection molded plastic.

MRA Waiver to Permit PLMR Operation on Part 90/95 Band Edges
Download OptionsReleased: January 28, 2014
Federal Communications Commission
Before the
Federal Communications Commission
Washington, D.C. 20554In the Matter of
WT Docket No. 13-212
Requests for Waivers to Permit Part 90 Use of
Channels on the Band Edges Between Part 90 and
Part 95 Spectrum
Adopted: January 27, 2014
Released: January 28, 2014By the Deputy Chief, Mobility Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:
Introduction. We have before us applications and requests1 filed by Mobile Relay
Associates (MRA) for waiver of Sections 2.106 and 90.35 of the Commission's Rules to permit MRA to
operate on frequency pairs 462/467.5375 MHz and 462/467.7375 MHz at locations in California,2
Colorado,3 Nevada,4 and Florida.5 For the reasons set forth below, we grant the waiver requests and will
process the applications.
Background. Frequencies 462.5375 MHz, 462.7375 MHz, 467.5375 MHz, and 467.7375
MHz are allocated for land mobile operations,6 but currently are not designated for use by the
Industrial/Business Pool or any other Commission service.7 Rather, they are on the band edges between
Industrial/Business Pool spectrum and General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) spectrum.
MRA seeks assignment of these frequencies with a 4 kilohertz emission designator,
which it contends will present no risk of harmful interference because its requested channels will not
overlap any designated frequencies on either side, in light of the implementation of narrowbanding
(maximum 12.5 kHz channel bandwidth or equivalent efficiency)8 by private land mobile radio (PLMR)
licensees in the 150-174 MHz and 421-470 MHz bands.9 Further, MRA contends that there is widespread
1 MRA filed a near-identical waiver request with each application. See, e.g., Request for Rule Waiver (filed July 30,
2013) (Waiver Request).
2 See FCC File No. 0005877470 (filed July 30, 2013 and amended Aug. 1, 2013 and Aug. 21, 2013).

5 See FCC File No. 0005898064 (filed Aug. 16, 2013).
6 See 47 C.F.R. § 2.106 (United States Table of Frequency Allocations). Consequently, we agree with Kenwood
USA Corporation that no waiver of Section 2.106 is required. See Kenwood USA Corporation comments at 2 n.3.

Federal Communications Commission
DA 14-89and increasing PLMR congestion in the areas in which it seeks relief.10
The Wireless Telecommunications Bureau's Mobility Division (Division) sought
comment on MRA's requests.11 Most parties support MRA's waiver requests,12 but two commenters
express concern about interference to GMRS operations.13
Discussion. To obtain a waiver of the Commission's rules a petitioner must demonstrate
either that (i) the underlying purpose of the rule(s) would not be served or would be frustrated by
application to the present case, and that a grant of the waiver would be in the public interest;14 or (ii) in
view of unique or unusual factual circumstances of the instant case, application of the rule(s) would be
inequitable, unduly burdensome, or contrary to the public interest or the applicant has no reasonable
alternative.15 Based on the record before us, we conclude that MRA has presented sufficient facts to meet
the standard for grant of the requested waivers.
We conclude that the underlying purpose of the rules would not be served by application
to frequency pair 462/467.5375 MHz, and that grant of the waiver is in the public interest. The
frequencies requested by MRA formerly represented the channel edge of the wideband PLMR frequency
closest to the band edge between Industrial/Business Pool spectrum and GMRS spectrum. After the
narrowbanding transition, these adjacent frequencies (462.5250 MHz and 467.5250 MHz) are no longer
assignable for wideband operations, so there is no channel bandwidth overlap with MRA's requested
frequency pair.16 We conclude that the public interest would be served by permitting the assignment of
these frequencies to alleviate PLMR congestion at the requested locations. It would further the purpose
of the narrowbanding rules to permit the efficient use of scarce PLMR spectrum.
With respect to frequency pair 462/467.7375 MHz, MRA initially failed to recognize that
Industrial/Business frequency 462.750 MHz is exempt from narrowbanding and still may be assigned
with a channel bandwidth of 25 kilohertz,17 which would overlap MRA's requested frequency pair. The
Commission exempted this and other paging-only frequencies from narrowbanding because paging
frequencies are not congested and the Commission was concerned that requiring a systemic overhaul of
paging transmitters would harm the paging industry's ability to provide service.18 After the Division
pointed out that frequency 462.750 MHz is narrowband-exempt, MRA and its frequency coordinator
demonstrated that no incumbent licensee on the frequency operates in any of the areas at issue with an
occupied bandwidth greater than 20 kilohertz and thus there is no overlap of occupied bandwidth with

Federal Communications Commission
DA 14-89MRA's proposed 4-kilohertz emission.19 Consequently, we conclude that a waiver also is appropriate
with respect to frequency pair 462/467.7375 MHz.
The Division's predecessor granted a similar waiver request in 2003.20 The City of
Burbank requested a narrowband frequency pair that was allocated for land mobile operations, but not
designated for use by the Public Safety Pool or any other Commission service; rather, the frequencies
were offset between Part 90 PLMR spectrum and Part 22 paging control spectrum. The Division's
predecessor noted that a purpose of the frequency designations was to assign paging control channels
under Part 22 with sufficient guard band spacing to adjacent Part 90 PLMR operations, and concluded
that this purpose would not be served by application of the rules because there were no paging licensees
on the adjacent Part 22 channel to incur interference.21 The Division's predecessor also concluded that
grant of the waiver request would serve the public interest by facilitating access to spectrum in a
congested area.22
We are not persuaded by commenters' concerns regarding interference to adjacent-
channel GMRS operations. P. Randall Knowles contends that MRA's proposed operations will overlap
and interfere with existing licensed GMRS operations on frequencies 462.5375 MHz, 462.7375 MHz,
467.5375 MHz, and 467.7375 MHz.23 Similarly, the Personal Radio Steering Group, Inc. contends that
the "guardband" spectrum for which MRA seeks a waiver is appropriate and necessary to protect existing
and future licensed GMRS operations.24 We disagree. Because MRA proposes to operate with a 4
kilohertz emission, there is no spectral overlap with adjacent-channel GMRS operations. When the
current frequency designations were adopted, PLMR stations operated in wideband mode and the
frequencies between PLMR and GMRS spectrum were could not be used without overlap. With the
development of equipment with an occupied bandwidth of 4 kilohertz, PLMR stations can operate
without causing harmful interference or impacting the use of adjacent GMRS spectrum. Finally, Knowles
suggests that any newly available spectrum adjacent to GMRS frequencies should be designated for
GMRS use,25 but this argument overlooks the fact that the GMRS technical rules do not provide for
equipment with a narrow enough emission to operate on the frequencies in question without overlapping
other channels.26
Consequently, we grant MRA's request for waivers to operate on frequency pairs
462/467.5375 MHz and 462/467.7375 MHz in California, Colorado, Nevada, and Florida.

Originally written on Around the Arc | Last updated 3/15/13
If Andrew Bynum doesn't play a single game this season, and it doesn't seem like he has any desire to do so, at least the Sixers are off the hook for his ($16.9 million) salary.According to Yahoo!, the Sixers have insurance on the Bynum investment, and should he not suit up a single second, his contract should be fully covered. Bynum will still be paid, just not by the 76ers. No, Bynum doesn't deserve a single cent for his effort for the Sixers this season, but sometimes in the NBA seven foot stiffs with nacho knees can still make seventeen million. So there is still a sap in this story; someone still has to pay Bynum a huge chunk of change to alter his hair style ever other week. But, for once, at least that sap isn't the Sixers; they've suffered enough this season. --In other news, Charles Barkley said the Sixers shouldn't resign Andrew Bynum, meaning that they really shouldn't, as the Round Mound of Rebound is always right.

But it's like as soon as I cum, I come to my senses
from Lil Wayne (Ft. Drake & Future) – Love Me Lyrics on Genius
As soon as he has sex with a woman, he no longer cares about them. By saying that he is "coming to his senses", Weezy implies that these women should not be loved and he is doing the right thing by leaving them.
In addition, when sexually aroused men tend to seek to satisfy this arousal. Generally, when they ejaculate the arousal ends immediately allowing rational thought to reclaim its rightful place.

Government officials and top climate scientists will meet in Berlin from April 7 to April 12 to review the 29-page draft that also estimates that the required shift to low-carbon energies would cost between 2% and 6% of world output by 2050.
It says nations will have to impose drastic curbs on their still-rising greenhouse gas emissions to keep a promise made by almost 200 countries in 2010 to limit global warming to less than 2ÚC compared to pre-industrial times.
Temperatures have already risen by about 0.8ÚC since 1900 and are set to breach the 2ÚC ceiling on current trends in coming decades, UN reports show.
"The window is shutting very rapidly on the two degrees target," said Johan Rockstrom, head of the Stockholm Resilience Centre, and an expert on risks to the planet from heatwaves, floods, droughts and rising seas.
"The debate is drifting to 'maybe we can adapt to two degrees, maybe three or even four,'" Mr Rockstrom said.
Such rises would sharply increase risks to food and water supplies and could trigger irreversible damage, such as a meltdown of Greenland's ice, according to UN reports.
The draft outlines ways to cut emissions and boost low-carbon energy, which includes renewables such as wind, hydro-electric and solar power, nuclear power and "clean" fossil fuels whose carbon emissions are captured and buried.
It said such low-carbon sources accounted for 17% of the world's total energy supplies in 2010 and their share would have to triple - to 51% - or quadruple by 2050, according to most scenarios reviewed.
They would displace high-polluting fossil fuels as the world's main energy source by mid-century.
Saskatchewan Power in Canada will open a $1.35 billion (£810 million) coal-fired electricity generating plant this year that will extract a million tonnes of carbon dioxide a year from its exhaust gases.
It will be the first carbon-capture and storage plant of its type.
Reports by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will help governments which aim to agree a deal to slow climate change at a Paris summit in December 2015. Few nations have outlined plans consistent with staying below 2ÚC.
Another recent report by the IPCC showed warming already affects every continent and said it would damage food and water supplies and slow economic growth.
It may already be having irreversible impacts on the Arctic and coral reefs.
The new draft shows getting on track to meet the 2ÚC goal would mean limiting greenhouse gas emissions to between 30 billion and 50 billion tonnes in 2030, a radical shift after a surge from 38 billion in 1990 to 49 billion tonnes in 2010.
The shift would reduce economic output by up to 6% by 2050 because of the costs of building clean energy systems. Capturing carbon dioxide is also expensive. China and the United States are the top emitters.
One option is to let temperatures overshoot the 2ÚC target while developing technology to extract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, the draft says.

As women, sometimes we have the tendency to let our emotions do the talking when it comes to making decisions in our lives. This is especially common when we begin new relationships. As a result of this, many of us end up in relationships where we wish we had done things differently, or we wish we had known more in the beginning. However, sometimes we are just so happy to be with this guy that we are afraid to dig too deep, or start asking too many questions for fear that we might mess things up, or scare him away before things even get started.
But we have to do that. By dating someone, you are agreeing that you could possibly end up being committed to this person through marriage and maybe even have an offspring with them. Yes, it's a lot to think about early on, but you have to consider these things.
Because of this, we have to stir things up and start asking some questions. And if you happen to scare him away by asking him questions, then he isn't worth having a relationship with you!
Below are some questions you can ask yourself before you change that Facebook status to "In A Relationship." Of course there will be exceptions, but we just wanted to help you get started!
These questions aren't anything revolutionary and it's also possible that there could be some teeny little grey areas, but more than likely, these are questions that you can work your way through before you decide to be in a committed relationship:
- Have you ever heard him talk about his parents? If so, is he respectful?
- Would he rather TALK to you than text?
- Is he respectful toward you around his friends?
- Would you be okay with him spending time with your dad (or the fatherly figure in your life) when you aren't around?
- Would you be okay allowing him to see you when your makeup/hair is not done?
- Does he have a father/mentor figure whom he seeks to model himself after?
- Does he give you more non-physical compliments than physical compliments?
- Does he have a job to support himself?
- Does he handle his money well?
- Do you have the same beliefs when it comes what matters to you most?
- Has he met your parents?
- Have you talked about short term goals?
- Do your short term goals align?
- Have you talked about long term goals?
- Do your long term goals align?
- Does he stop when you say "stop?"
- Does he respect your body?
- Have you had dialogue about what you believe and why?
- Do you know anything about his past relationships?
- Does he know anything about your past relationships?
- Is his main reasons for being attracted to you non-physical?
- Are your main reasons for being attracted to him non-physical?
- Do the people you trust the most approve of him?
- Do the people he trusts the most approve of you?
- Is he involved in his local church, charity, missions, or has a desire to help others?
- Has he ever offered to help with a project or something you were working on or stressed about?
- Does he try his best to stay clear of dangerous activities (texting/drinking and driving, speeding, other illegal activities)?
- Is he willing to admit when he is wrong?
- Is he a person of integrity (not willing to cheat, steal, or lie even if no one is looking)?
- Is he sensitive towards people with disabilities, people who are elderly, etc.?
- Do you have the same beliefs when it comes to children?
- Do you feel comfortable when he's around the people you are closest to?
- Does he show an interest in the things you are interested in?
- Have you ever seen him help someone?
- Do you feel safe around him?
- Do you feel that he would protect you in a time of need?
- Do you feel that he will stand up for you?
- Do you feel that you would stand up for him?
- Do you see him as someone you could spend the rest of your life (and maybe even have children) with?
- Does he love God more than he loves anyone else?
If your answer is yes to most of these questions, then it sounds like you may have a good thing going.
If your answer was no more than a couple of times, you should take your time and perhaps get to know each other as friends before you move further. Also, don't be afraid to see the women, and married couples in your life that you know you can trust and be honest with you. Most importantly, make it a priority to seek God in your decisions when it comes to your relationship.
Are there any other questions you would add?

MEXICO CITY - In the Mexican remake of the popular U.S. TV series "Gossip Girl," the privileged teens at the center of the drama still have it all: stylish clothes, great hair, top-of-the-line sports cars.
The types are familiar: Bowtie-wearing Chuck Bass is now known as Max Zaga, and effortlessly chic Serena van der Woodsen is now Sofia Lopez-Haro. The setting is no longer the Upper East Side of Manhattan, but the former "jewel" of the Mexican coast, Acapulco.
As filming began two weeks ago in the port city on the Pacific coast, "Gossip Girl Acapulco" immediately sparked passionate reactions among social media users in Mexico.
Many expressed disgust at the idea that a show about Manhattan's teen elites would be translated into a contemporary Mexican setting, where drug-related violence, especially in places such as Acapulco, and class and racial barriers remain entrenched. Others, though, said they were dying to see the finished product this year on media giant Televisa.
It may be little more than a whisper-worthy coincidence, but Acapulco is considered one of the most violent cities in Mexico, perhaps topped only by Ciudad Juarez on the U.S.-Mexico border. In 2011, the last full year for which figures are available, the national statistics institute said 1,114 people were reported killed within Acapulco's city limits, which has about 789,000 residents.
Kidnapping and extortion are believed to be rampant, and gory execution scenes are common mere blocks from the major tourist zones. Acapulco was in the headlines again this week after six Spanish tourists were raped in a beach bungalow by masked gunmen. The State Department urges U.S. nationals to "defer nonessential travel to areas further than two blocks inland" of the downtown beach.
("Let's hope this new round of 'Gossip Girl' only sees Blair losing her virginity, and, not, on top of it, her head," quipped the New York Observer, naming another character from the original series.)
There is no clear sign that the Mexican series is part of any larger plan to revitalize the struggling city, which also is deeply in debt. But the brain behind the project, producer Pedro Torres, said he hopes people will see the beauty of Acapulco through the show and maybe venture to visit.
Torres said "Gossip Girl Acapulco" will remain true to the story line and character types that captured viewers in the original. The only difference, he said, will be setting and the use of "mannerisms of Mexican speech."
"It was I who proposed the idea of placing it in Acapulco," said Torres, one of the most powerful figures in Mexican television. He has remade imports such as the reality shows "Big Brother" and "Fear Factor" for Mexican audiences.
"There is no doubt that the city of Acapulco has suffered serious problems of drug trafficking and violence like many other cities in Mexico," Torres said. "But, well, this series is not a portrait of that. This is fiction, a complete fiction."
In previews of "Gossip Girl Acapulco," in addition to their material wealth, the central characters seem to have inherited the European-looking side of Mexico's racial spectrum, a persistent feature of Mexican television that can either be read as a reflection of the country's stubborn class hierarchies or as tool that inadvertently promotes them.
A better term for it might be "aspirational," which is how actor Vadhir Derbez described the show's context during the press rollout for "Gossip Girl Acapulco." Derbez, who plays Max, the Mexican Chuck, said the show will have valuable lessons to offer viewers.
"People see these kids who come from lots of money, and it may seem unreachable," the actor told an interviewer. Yet, "it has a strong message behind it, that money is not everything. And that's cool."
Torres' Mexico City-based production company, El Mall, said it is in negotiations with U.S. Spanish-language networks Telemundo and Univision for possible distribution of "Gossip Girl Acapulco" north of the border.

DUBLIN, October 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Shire plc (LSE: SHP, NASDAQ: SHPGY), the global specialty biopharmaceutical company, announces that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), following a thorough administrative review of governing statutory and regulatory standards and public comments, has affirmed its prior decision to grant five-year New Chemical Entity (NCE) exclusivity to lisdexamfetamine dimesylate-currently marketed by Shire U.S. Inc. for the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder under the name VYVANSE(R). The five-year exclusivity period for VYVANSE expires on February 23, 2012. VYVANSE is covered by United States patents which remain in effect until June 29, 2023.
On February 23, 2007, after reviewing the requisite clinical studies submitted on behalf of VYVANSE, the FDA determined that VYVANSE qualified as a NCE and was entitled to five-year market exclusivity. The FDA therefore appropriately refused to file the Abbreviated New Drug Application submitted by Actavis Elizabeth, LLC (Actavis) for generic lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in January 2009. On February 24, 2009, Actavis sued the FDA in the District Court of the District of Columbia challenging the NCE decision. On April 13, 2009, the FDA opened a public docket to consider Actavis's challenge to the FDA's regulations governing NCE exclusivity and the corresponding award of exclusivity to VYVANSE. The court case was stayed pending the outcome of this FDA review.

Why is it that as soon as Dunn and Junior slump its time to get rid of them but when Phillips slumps not a word gets said?
I mean when Dunn slumps at least he still gets on, when Phillips slumps he is an automatic out. Dunn seems to be the target of so much of the media and yet when Phillips slumps and refuses to talk to the media after a good game not a word is said.
Do you think once Dunn and Junior are dealt for nothing, Brandon Phillips will quickly become the guy targeted by the media for the Reds problems?

Table of Contents Here's the table of contents for today's edition of Daily Notes. 1. Baseball Event: Tender Deadline, Tonight 2. GIF: Mark Reynolds Bat Toss 3. SCOUT Leaderboards: Australian Baseball League Baseball Event: Tender Deadline, Tonight The deadline by which teams must tender contracts to their arbitration-eligible players is tonight (Friday) at 11:59pm ET. Players to whom contact offers are extended then have the opportunity to negotiate with their respective teams until January 18th, when arbitration figures are due for exchange. Players to whom contracts are not tendered become free agents and are free to negotiate with all 30 teams. Using some combination of a slide rule, abacus, and cheat codes from early and beloved Nintendo game Contra, Matt Swartz has projected salaries for all arbitration-eligible players and published the results at MLB Trade Rumors. Here are three notable players who might become free agents tonight: Player: Mark Reynolds, CIF, BAL Proj. Salary: $8.9 million Notes: Reynolds has been worth less than a win in over 1100 plate appearances as an Oriole. Owing to his power, he'd certainly receive attention as a free agent, but likely not $9-million-dollars-annually of attention. Player: Ryan Sweeney, OF, BOS Proj. Salary: $1.8 million Notes: Provided he remains healthy, Sweeney would likely have little trouble producing the less than half a win his 2013 salary would require. Health has been an issue, however, and the Red Sox are a team that is seeking (and can afford) something closer to above-average talent at every position. Player: Brian Wilson, RHP, SF Proj. Salary: $8.5 million Notes: By the terms of the present CBA, teams cannot cut a player's salary by more than 20 percent — which is to say, the least Wilson could earn (were he tendered a contract) is $6.8 million. The Giants are likely regard that as excessive for a reliever coming of Tommy John surgery — and without whom they did, in fact, win the World Series.

Vassago Fisticuff
Jack of all trades, master of most. Like all things Vassago, (except maybe our beer glasses) the Fisticuff is not for everybody. Think of it as a 'cross-inspired bike with a bit of a 'roid problem. In this case, that's a very good thing. We beefed up the frame and fork in all the right places and the result is a 'cross style bike that responds like a mountain bike in the rough stuff.
More than simply adding tire clearance to a 'cross frame, the Fisticuff fits the monstercross nomenclature by way of its trail-bike tube set, drop bar geometry, straight blade fork and all around BADASSNESS. Yes, it is a word.
Whether you're looking for a drop-bar trail bike, a burly commuter, a gravel grinder, the Fisticuff is your huckleberry.
The new Fisticuff has been redesigned from the ground up and is available now!
