Wow i like i LIKE so pretty
Being as I am pretty sure I am the only one here who actually uses Enlightenment as their Primary desktop manager (I do use KDE and flux sometimes, but I am mainly an E kinda guy) I feel it's my duty to let you guys in on a little news. The next release of enlightenment is well on its way to a pre-release and the source code is in CVS for the world to gawk at. Enlightenment has always been known for its fantastically pretty environments that always bring GUI capeabilities to another level. I can sit here and rant all day about how amazing this is, but I think its better to let the product speak for itself so check out these screenshots, and moreimportantly, the videos at the bottom of this page: http://lude.net/edocs/index.htm
I have built the source code on my system and I must say it cant be beat, everything being rendered in real time, real transparency, real shadows, organic/active desktop items all with the absolute minimal impact on system resources (4-5% CPU Usage!!!) especially when compared to somthing like X.orgs composite abilities this is on a whole different level. It's not quite ready to use,even for those of us who can stand a few crashes, there just isnt all the functionality needed by a wm..............yet, give it time, and we shall see.
Wow i like i LIKE so pretty
Wenn Sie Spaß meines Englisch mich Willensfuckingtötung Sie bilden.
Just, wow. I use Enlightenment occasionally, and I have always been impressed with the eye candy. This looks like it is gonna make E even better.

The Role of Cardiolipin Remodeling in Mitochondrial Function and Human Diseases
Cardiolipin (CL), one of bisphosphatidyl glycerol lipid, is found to contain high level of C18:2 acyl chains and exist exclusively in inner membranes of mitochondria. Cardiolipin remodeling is the process for CL to attain its specific acyl chains. With the purpose of introducing this interesting field to readers, in this review, we elucidate the role of cardiolipin in normal functions of mitochondria by analyzing the physical and chemical characters of cardiolipin; we introduce the current models of cardiolipin remodeling by analyzing the enzymes involved in this process; we reviewed the latest progress in the clinical implications of cardiolipin remodeling.

New Jets: Meet Ganaway and Adams
It's easy to root for good guys. It's a cliche, sure, but at the end of the day, it's the truth. Thus, over the past few months, I've gotten a chance to get to know two new Jets very well, and I must say, if their personalities off the field are anything close to their play on the field, we will be seeing two Pro Bowlers for years to come. Let me introduce you to two Jets. Wide receiver DaMarcus Ganaway and cornerback Royce Adams.
Let's start with DaMarcus Ganaway. Signed by the club on January 17th to a reserve/future contract, Ganaway was waived on April 3rd to make room for Hayden Smith. However, Ganaway told me that he will be resigned in May, just in time for training camp and OTA's. As Ganaway put it, "once I get back, I'm back for good." He started 34 of 40 games at Kentucky Wesleyan and finished his college career with 214 receptions, 2,653 yards and 22 touchdowns. Ganaway did not play football in 2011. Instead, he spent the entire year training and working out in Fort Wayne, Indiana at AWP (Athletes with Purpose). He worked out with Cardinals All-Pro wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald over the summer. Ganaway who runs a 4.30, 40, can give this team a vertical threat that they've been missing for years. Obviously he's going to need to show he can move past guys like Dexter Jackson and Eron Riley on the roster, and I'm confident he can.
Now meet Royce Adams. Adams can do it all. While he will likely be a corner for the Jets, he has experience playing receiver as well. He converted from cornerback to wide receiver prior to his senior season at Purdue in 2009. Adams played in 46 games for the Boilermakers, also spending time at both kick and punt returner. He played the 2011 season with the AFL's Pittsburgh Power. Eager to get into the NFL, Adams sent his tape to all 32 teams last season. As soon as Mike Tannenbaum received it, he brought him in for a workout on December 26. The Jets liked what they saw and signed reserve/future contracts in January. Adams might have a great chance to make the 53-man roster due to his versatility. He is a fantastic kid, and somebody who all Jets fans should root for come summer time.
I've had the opportunity to converse with various athletes throughout the years, and I can easily say Ganaway and Adams are two of the nicest guys I have ever come across. They both get up early in the morning to hit the workout room, and they don't stop until sundown. In a locker room that was in complete disarray last season, it will be great to add two guys with amazing character, who will lay it out on the line each and every practice just to see there dream of making it to the NFL come true. Everybody wants to make it to the NFL as a kid. For Ganaway and Adams, they are a few months away from turning that dream into a reality.

Prospect Look: Andrew Goudelock
The 6-foot-3 guard from the College of Charleston outperformed all of his peers in the combine's shooting drills by knocking down all 21 of his timed midrange attempts and hitting more spot-up threes from NBA range than well-known shooters like Jimmer Fredette and Jon Diebler. He also recorded a 37-inch maximum vertical and the second fastest lane agility time of the 54 prospects invited.
Goudelock's impressive display led to plenty of workout requests and now he has a packed schedule.
"I've already worked out for the Detroit Pistons and Oklahoma City Thunder," Goudelock told HOOPSWORLD in a phone interview. "I've scheduled workouts with the Los Angeles Lakers, Milwaukee Bucks, Miami Heat, Charlotte Bobcats, Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, Orlando Magic, New Jersey Nets and some others."
Goudelock has ridiculous range…Jimmer range. I saw him in Portsmouth and he's a great scorer. He was the best pick and roll shooter there by a mile.

Bullying stops teens from being who they want to be, prevents them from expressing themselves freely, and might even make them feel unsafe. Bullying can happen anywhere, both in person and online. In this age of constant connectivity, and understanding the value teens place on their social networks, it's only fitting to try and better reach them digitally.
It's no surprise that teens are highly visual, socially oriented, and always "connected." They're constantly on their phones ... Continue ReadingPosted in Prevention

Most experts acknowledge that bullying is a serious problem that has negative consequences for both perpetrators and victims. However, we know very little about how bullying early in life affects future behaviors.
Several years ago, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began a partnership with researchers at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign to better understand how bullying may lead to sexual violence. When we say "sexual violence," we are talking about one specific type, sexual harassment, which does not include forcible acts like rape.Continue ReadingPosted in Specific Groups

After a survey found that students didn't feel safe in their Pueblo, Colorado community, the Safe Haven for Pueblo Bullying Victims Project stepped in to make a difference.
The Safe Schools/Healthy Students group got help from more than 700 students to design posters denouncing bullying. They then reached out to business owners to hang the posters in their windows, to show their community support for the project. The posters alert students that these businesses will provide a refuge for them if they are being bullied or feel unsafe. The business owners agreed to help youth arrange for someone to pick up any students who are being bullied and to let them wait there until a safe ride arrives.Continue ReadingPosted in Response

Last Saturday the Carbon Divers went to a qualifying diving meet in American Fork and as a team came away with second place.
At the meet the Carbon kids were competing with seven boys teams and six girls team from around the state.
Unlike most of the other sports in high school, there is not classifications used in matching up teams in diving. Large schools compete with small schools.
"We have a very good team this year," says Coach Stewart Foster. "Our biggest problem is that we don't have enough kids competing. I am convinced if we had a few more come out for the team we could have a good shot at taking first place in the state in both girls and boys diving."
In the American Fork meet both Michael Glasson who placed fourth and Philip Noyes, who placed fifth, improved their scores. Glasson improved by 32 points. Neither did the best dives they have done before, but their tries were good enough to place them near the top.
In the girls diving Mikaleen Loveless won the event, improving her score by 24 points from her first meet this season.
Lyn'D Anderson placed third at the meet.
This Saturday the team will have a home diving meet at the Desert Wave Pool. The start time for the diving will be at 10 a.m. and at least four schools will be competing.

BRASHER FALLS Volunteers hope to have the required number of signatures by Wednesday to place a proposition for a branch library here on the November ballot.
But some residents have questioned the effect the proposal will have on taxes if voters approve it. Town officials said the $56,000 budget item would reflect a 14.5 percent hike in the tax levy.
Organizers said that based on their calculations, it amounts to 67 cents per $1,000 of assessed value, an increase of $67 for the owner of a home assessed at $100,000.
From the very beginning, it was laid out at $56,000. Thats the entire cost of the branch. No one was ever hiding anything, Massena Public Library Director Elaine Dunne-Thayer said.
Its very clear on the actual petition. Its 67 cents per $1,000. Where the other percentages are coming from, I dont know.
She said supporters are forging ahead with the petition drive. Their goal is to have the signatures submitted to town officials by Wednesday afternoon.
Its the second go-round for the petition process.
Roger A. Linden, attorney for the town of Brasher, questioned the validity of the first petitions during a hearing last month because volunteer Michele Ellis-Porcaro had signed her name on each page of signatures, including those she had not personally witnessed.
Ms. Ellis-Porcaro told Mr. Linden that while there were some signatures she had not personally witnessed, she had personally seen others sign the petition as she went from door to door seeking supporters for the initiative.
However, Ms. Ellis-Porcaro said, her signature appearing on each page of petitions was simply a misunderstanding about proper procedure.
Library officials need 80 signatures, representing 10 percent of the number of Brasher residents who voted in the last gubernatorial election, to get the proposition for a branch library on the November ballot. The library would be in Crapser Hall in the former Boothe Building in downtown Brasher Falls.
Overall, supporters turned in 11 pages with 130 signatures, but indicated on the cover letter that 89 signers were residents of the town of Brasher.
Because of the confusion over which signatures on the original petitions would be declared valid, organizers have started from scratch in their attempts to gather 80 signatures supporting the proposal.
I think they just wanted to make sure that theyre following the letter and doing everything that was requested by the towns attorney. The support was there, said Emily Owen, a consultant with the North Country Library System who has been working on the project with Massena Public Library officials.
Theyre just getting people to sign it again who had already expressed their support for this, she said.
The petitions will be submitted to the Town Council by Wednesday and must be filed with the Board of Elections by Sept. 20 in order for the proposal to appear on the November ballot.
Ms. Owen said she hopes the petitions can be reviewed and approved soon.

Editors' note March 9, 2015: Apple has announced a price cut that brings the Apple TV down to $69, £59, AU$109 from its original price of $99. Apple also says it will be the exclusive partner for the HBO Now streaming service, coming exclusively to US Apple devices this April for $15 per month. We'll be updating this review soon accordingly.
Apple may or may not release a television someday. In the meantime, it offers a tiny streaming box called the Apple TV.
The Apple TV has never felt like a revolutionary product, but consistent updates have transformed it from a glorified Netflix player into a solid streaming-video box. Apple's beefed up its channel selection, adding Hulu Plus, HBO Go, Watch ESPN and Sky News, in addition to stalwarts like Netflix, MLB.TV, and YouTube. The Apple TV remains deeply integrated with iTunes, allowing you to stream purchased and rented movies and TV shows, plus with iTunes Match you can get access to your entire digital music collection -- if you're a subscriber.
AirPlay remains the Apple TV's secret weapon, letting you push videos, music, and photos from an iPhone or iPad, including content from most third-party apps. And if you've got a newer Mac, you can even pull off full-fledged screen-mirroring in Mountain Lion -- yes, that means you can stream free Hulu right to your TV.
Yet, the Apple TV can't be considered the premier living room box. That honor goes to the Roku 3, which offers up more content options (including Amazon Instant, Pandora, Spotify, and Rdio), excellent cross-platform search, and a nifty remote with a headphone jack for private listening.
If you're deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem, especially iTunes, the Apple TV is a polished streaming-video box that's well worth its price tag. But even after the price cut, most buyers are better off with the plucky Roku 3.
Design: Same sleek, black box
The Apple TV still has the best design of any streaming video box. It's a simple, unobtrusive black box with a small white light on the front that illuminates when it's in active use. Around back are a handful of connections, including HDMI, optical audio output, Micro-USB (for service only), and Ethernet. There's also built-in 802.11n Wi-Fi for connecting to your home wireless network, with support for dual-band Wi-Fi. Note that HDMI is the only video connection available, so if you have an older TV, you're out of luck.
Unlike most other streaming boxes, the Apple TV's power supply is built-in, so there's no separate AC adapter. It also gives the Apple TV a useful heft that keeps it planted even with a heavy HDMI cable hanging out the back.
The included remote is minimalist in a classic Apple way. It has just a navigation circle at the top, a Menu button (which doubles as a Back button), and a Play/Pause button. The simplicity makes it easy for anybody to pick it up and get the hang of it, and for the most part its simple controls are enough for everyday use. On the other hand, it can't compete with the Roku 3's delightful remote that adds a built-in headphone jack, Wi-Fi direct control, and a few handy additional buttons like "skip back."
The Apple TV can also be controlled with an iPad or iPhone using Apple's Remote app. Like most smartphone control apps, there's an onscreen "remote" that you can use and the ability to navigate menus via gestures. For most uses, it's not all the useful, especially since you can't actually browse streaming content on your iPad a la Google's Chromecast. What is cool is the remote apps lets you remotely control music from your iTunes collection on a PC, which can be easier than using the remote. And if you're controlling your music collection using the Remote app and the Apple TV is hooked to a separate audio amplifier, you won't need to have the TV on, either.
User interface: Paving the way for an app store?
The Apple TV user interface got an overhaul in 2012, adopting a more app-centric design that kind of makes your TV look like a giant iPad. Apple's own services are pinned to the top, including rotating cover art for top TV shows and movies. Below are all your other apps and you can rearrange the order so your favorites are toward the top. The icon-driven design works well enough, but it does beg for a true "app store" for the Apple TV.
Selecting movies or TV shows brings you to the iTunes interface. There's a menu bar along the top of the screen by which you can jump to useful features like your purchased content and content you've added to your wish list. Below there's a carousel of promoted content, followed by cover art broken down by categories like new releases and genres. Selecting a title brings up a synopsis, Rotten Tomatoes ratings, cast info, and more. The layout is excellent for browsing content. While I personally use Amazon Instant for most of my video content purchases, I'm always impressed by how nice the iTunes Store experience is when I use the Apple TV.
iTunes Store: Movies, TV shows
The iTunes Store has been through many incarnations on the Apple TV, but it's in the best state it's ever been in. TV shows are $3 for HD, $2 for SD (although it's increasingly rare to find the SD option); movies are $5 to rent in HD, and anywhere between $10 and $20 to purchase.
All of the content is streamed (rather than downloaded) and you can access your purchased movies and TV shows to rewatch as many times as you'd like. Your movie and TV show purchases can also be streamed or downloaded to other Apple devices, including the iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Macs, and PCs running iTunes.

When Princess P was a baby, we tried every pacifier brand on the market in hopes that just one would do the trick. After trying countless brands, and spending a small fortune, P decided that she just wasn't going to be a pacifier baby. I only wish that the new GumDrop Pacifiers from The First Years were available then, because their innovate design and natural fit just might have done the trick.
By taking the same nipple shape from the Soothie pacifiers and adding a uniquely contoured fit to baby's face (that stays clear of baby's nose), The First Years developed the new lightweight GumDrop pacifiers. The innovative one-piece design is constructed of durable, latex-free silicone and is designed to safely connect to most pacifier attachers. Trusted and distributed in hospitals nationwide, the GumDrop pacifiers are available in two sizes, newborn (0 to 3 months) and infant (3 months +) , and come in playful green, blue, orange, pink and purple colors.
I have to admit, The First Years Pacifier Case was a new one for me. Most pacifiers (that I have seen) are kept in the diaper bag, stroller compartment or on a pacifier attacher, so I really liked the idea of storing them in a place that was clean and handy. The First Years Pacifier Case conveniently holds two pacifiers and features an adjustable handle that attaches easily to diaper bags, a stroller or just about anywhere! Also included, a 30-pack of pacifier wipes for easy cleaning on the go!

A big thank you to The First Years for this review and giveaway opportunity!
This review is based strictly my opinion. Others may have a different opinion or experience with the product listed above. I was provided the GumDrop pacifiers, case and attacher free of charge and I provided my honest opinion. No other type compensation was received for this review.

Dr. Susan L. Perlman's Ratings
I don't know what we would do without her. She is extremely knowledgeable about my rare neurological disease and takes time to explain and answer all questions. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who can't get a proper diagnosis for a neurological condition. She tries everything in her bag of tricks to alleviate symptoms and improve life for people with diseases that have no real treatment or cure. Our greatest thanks and appreciation to her.

Having been to numerous neurologists for years searching for answers on my daughter's illness I have come to the conclusion that Dr Perlman is the best hands down in her field. She has never given up on my teenage daughter's cerebellar atrophy which is caused by a rare genetic component which is not clearly known. Her patience, genuine concern and knowledge are incomparable. If you have cerebellar atrophy she is your ticket. She may not have all the answers but she will not give up easily.

Dr. Perlman has never given up on my complex case. She is consistently interested in how I am doing physically. I am thankful for every excellent referral to other specialists within UCLA because I know she is sending me to a physician capable of handling my case. Even though my case still doesn't have a definitive diagnosis, she still has not lost interest in me as a patient or as a human being who is suffering. This means so much to me. I have not been given much hope from many doctors in the past. She handles mostly neuro-genetic cases but she also tackles complicated neurological cases like mine on occasion. I was very fortunate to get an appointment with her. She is booked but finds time to see me when I really have to come for an appointment.

caring, and so knowledgable. Absolutely brilliant woman and took such care to make sure I was always informed. I hear she is one of the best in the country and I'd have to agree.

Peter Rosenberg
In the nearly five years that he has been on New York's HOT 97, Peter Rosenberg has made an indelible mark on New York radio and the global hip-hop landscape. His voice can be heard every weekday morning on The Cipha Sounds and Rosenberg Show with K Foxx, a morning show that is revolutionizing urban radio, and every Sunday night on Real Late with Rosenberg. What has endeared him to people most has been his undying passion for everything he covers, whether it's hip hop, sports, professional wrestling, comedy, politics or entertainment. And that passion isn't only heard on the radio.
As the host of MTV2's weekly series What's Good, he's downloading viewers on everything that's happening this coming weekend. And now as the host of Hip Hop Squares, he'll use his quick wit, hip hop know how, and his relationship with these artists to make each and every show a party.

"Rivets 2" greeting card by Scott Norris. Ships within 2 - 3 business days and includes a plain white envelop for mailing and/or gift giving. Available in vertical and horizontal orientations.
Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros - it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo. Much of what I shoot is done spontaneously without preconceived thought or plan. I let what is around me dictate what is photographed. And the shooting is only the first step - a jumping off point. I take the raw images and create what I see in my mind�s eye. Coaxing out textures present in the shot � sometimes adding them. Enhancing the contrast of light and dark to create the mood and emotions I felt and feel. In the end, it�s all about listening to my heart and mind...

MOORE (AP) — The National Weather Service says the tornado that hit Moore, Okla., was a top-of-the-scale EF-5 twister with winds of at least 200 mph.
Oklahoma twister a top-of-the-scale EF-5
blog.newsok.com Published: May 21, 2013
Spokeswoman Keli Pirtle said Tuesday the agency upgraded the tornado from an EF-4 on the enhanced Fujita scale to an EF-5 based on what a damage assessment team saw on the ground. The weather service uses the word "incredible" to describe the power of EF-5 storms.
The weather service says the tornado's path was 17 miles long and 1.3 miles wide.
Pirtle says Monday's twister is the first EF-5 tornado of 2013.Weather blog: Tornado an EF5

Fleas have a number of strategic advantages in this war:
1. Masters of Maneuvers - Fleas are tiny, hard-shelled insects with incredible muscle power in their hind legs; they can jump 4-5 feet horizontally (or nearly a foot straight up). They're fast. They're adaptable. And they're hard to kill. Read more >
Be wary of the chemical flea control products
It is fine to consult your veterinarian about flea control, but be wary of the chemical flea control products.(see Flea Myth #8). In addition, veterinarians may not know the best ways to get rid of fleas in the environment. Read more >
Myth #3: Keeping the house clean will prevent fleas
Unfortunately, fleas can infest even the most spotless home. Fleas usually enter the house on your pets, but they can also hitch a ride on clothing, and have even been seen to jump right into the house on their own.Read more >

Not sure if works that well..
By Dog Mom
from VT
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Only Natural Pet Herbal Defense Oil Blend:
Wanted something without hazard labels and no side effects. Do believe this falls into the category. However, don't know how well it really works. Fleas are not a problem here. Ticks, black flies, deer flies, etc can be. Haven't seen many bite marks or ticks on them this summer, but I don't allow them to roam either.

Fleas without it
By Christy
from Temecula, CA
I know it works because when I stopped using it my shepherd mix got fleas. Now I'm making sure I apply it once a week and he's been flea-free.

great natural product
By trisha
from va
We don't give our dogs any of the chemical pest contol products on the market. We try to live as chemical free as we can. This is the 1st year we have used this product, but have used similar ones for the last 10 years or so. Our fur children remain pest free & chemical free too. These are the best type of pest control & they smell really good too.
By girliegirlnflipflops
from Pittsburgh, Pa
I was very hopeful this would solve our flea problem with our pets. It left an oily residue on our dogs coat and was completely ineffective.

Am extremely happy with this product
By aprilwaters
from SC
I used this product as instructed. I put a few drops in my hand, rubbed them together then rubbed it all over my dogs, especially in the belly and tail area. 2 applications and have had no more fleas. If I see one of them starting to scratch I just apply once and that's it. I would recommend this. By the way, my dogs are indoor dogs and do not spend a lot of time outdoors so I can not comment on how well it would work on outside dogs.
So far, so good!
By Terra'smom
from Wayne, Pennsylvania
We have used this product on our Lab puppy for several months now. She had 2 ticks before we started using it; I have found none since. We live in a wooded area, full of ticks (I used to pull off several a day from our previous Lab)Now for the experience: I put a few drops in my hand to warm the oil I love the scent, and so apparently does our pup. She automatically lies down on her back when she sees me with the bottle, and closes her eyes so that she can experience the scented rubdown! Then she goes to sleep (honestly!) I rub it all over, with a few extra drops on her hindquarters and near her ears. Her coat takes well to it , it's not greasy, it gets absorbed into her fur. It keeps her coat shiny, and she smells good all the time. She is at a day care, and we have no problems with the scent bothering other dogs. Also, since she is at a day care, and no collars are allowed when they are playing, I know she is protected and will not harm other dogs. We just bought the shampoo too to give a little extra protection. All in all, we are very satisfied.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
"There are a lot of people who are not aware of this: The boot is the part of the setup that is closest to the athlete, it is the connection between the person, ski and slope, it is the 'steering wheel' of the performance", Marcel Hirscher explained.
Before Marcel Hirscher may slip into one of Redster race boots, Atomic boot expert Andreas Dudek spent six hours with preparations in numerous steps of work: assembling buckles and special Dual Straps (the straps on the edge of the boot) and adapting the shell and cuff super-exactly to Hirscher style. "The edge of the Redster is a question of hundredths of millimeters", Marcel revealed. Does that also apply to the boots? "Yes, in technical events I'm not standing on the binding plate with the sole in an even way, but depending on the conditions the boot may also be ground minimally to influence the transmission of forces. Works out analogically like with the ski. The hardness of the cuff can be adjusted in any direction, you have to calculate a lot of parameters, it's a science", the "booting star" explained after his dominate victory in the most difficult slalom of the season so far.
"The Redster gets its explosive nature for acceleration from the carbon tail. This is a sensational innovations, first of all because of the new material used in giant slalom, but also when it comes to extremely small radii as in the slalom in Madonna", Marcel Hirscher explained. Formula 1 technology – however, his boots are identical to the Redster models available in retail, they have the highest degree of hardness available: 170. Marcel Hirscher has "a very normal foot". Only in slalom he uses a specially expanded liner. Due to various insoles he is always able in giant slalom to quickly adapt the characteristics of the setup to changing conditions.
Boot expert Andrea Dudek is a walking Redster dictionary. The buckle is used 600 times per season. "Our Redster buckles are made of a special aluminum alloy that withstand extreme forces, for example a traction of 150 kilos, and also Marcel in situations like in Madonna when he buckled his boots in a very powerful way."

Boss Extreme Limited Edition
The Accurate Triple Dawg reels were developed for a core group of anglers looking for a specific reel design built on the function and design of the old double dawg reels. Accurate took it one step further and put an additional dawg in the design making it a triple dawg reel that sees one dawg always engaged in the gear for maximum stopping power. With the other two additional dawgs they offer anglers a double back up knowing that if they see a problem in the first dawg's connection on the gear there are two more that will be ready to spring into gear for instant stopping power. These dawgs are a solid piece of stainless steel that are independent of any bearing function different from other reels on the market, and are continuously engaged. With today's ever changing fishing techniques pushing small reels – big fish philosophy these reels give those anglers the piece of mind knowing the stopping power is there.
This special edition series is a one-time manufacturing run, available for a very limited time. Get them while they're hot!
- Patented TwinDrag™ System
- Seven Class 5 ABEC stainless steel bearings
- Tripple Anti-Reverse Dawg system
