Worth buying
By K
from NY State
I left a review yesterday complaining about the awful colors of the pencil selection. Well, it was delivered on a very hot day & what I didn't know was that they sent a color selection of the pencils that change color with the heat of your hand--or heat in general! To my amazement, the cool air of the air conditioning put the pencils back to the original color overnight. So I received hot pink, blue, green and orange pencils. I believe my niece will love them and the pencil case! I have decided to order a personalized pencil sharpener to go with it!
(2 of 2 customers found this review helpful)
The pencils did not match the pencil case AT ALL & were nothing like the pencils in the picture. Every pencil had a jet black eraser & jet black metal that attached the eraser to the pencil. Hideous. I received 5 orange pencils that with the black looked like Halloween & 2 ugly dishwater grey, a color not even mentioned as a possibility. They DO NOT match the pencil case AT ALL. I DO NOT recommend anyone to ever let Miles Kimball choose the colors as they will deliberately send you an awful display. I knew the pencil case would be cheaply made but it was beyond bad. I cannot give this as a gift. You lost a customer today.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

One of the most famed Christmas movies of all time was filmed in Cleveland, Ohio, A Christmas Story. Now you can tour the house where Ralphie lived.
Courtesy of The Christmas Story HouseThe popular movie is a walk down memory lane for those who grew up in the Cleveland area and even the surrounding states, The large iconic department stores of Higbee�s and Halle�s decorated the windows with holiday scenes for many years. Halle�s seventh floor was the home to the �keeper of the keys�, Mr. Jingaling. Both stores had large decorated areas with Santa.Today the Higbee's Department store is home to the Horseshoe Casino. It has been remodeled but the iconic chandeliers and pillars remain. This is the first year that the casino has been in operation and while working on the building they found Christmas decorations from the windows. So they used them and decorated the windows...even using a leg lamp! They also used some of the famous decorations inside.The famed movie was released in 1983 without a lot of hoop la and became one of the most popular holiday movies of all time, right up there with It�s a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street. The story is a semi-autobiographical story of author, Jean Parker Shepherd�s childhood. The star of the movie, nine year old Ralphie Parker, wants a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas. His mother is afraid he will shoot his eye out.
Higbee�sThe well-known Higbee�s Department Store was used in three scenes for the movie. The opening scene where Ralphie is peering in the store window at the Red Ryder BB Gun, look for the there glow of the Higbee sign. The parade scene was filmed just outside Higbee�s in Cleveland�s public square at 3:00 a.m. and Higbee�s is seen during the parade just before Ralphie goes to see Santa. Also, when Ralphie and Randy visit Santa it was filmed inside Higbee�s. The store kept the Santa slide that was made especially for the movie and used it for several years after the movie�s release.The 12 floor Higbee building was the first department store in the greater Cleveland area and is right in the heart of Cleveland�s Public Square. It opened in 1931 and closed in 2002 and the building still stands and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The house as it is today after being restored.Courtesy A Christmas Story House & Museum
The House Where Ralphie LivedTraditionally many of us watch each year so we know Ralphie did not shoot his eye out with his Red Ryder BB gun because Start a new tradition, after watching the movie pack the family in the station wagon and visit the house where Ralphie lived.
Brian Jones purchased the house in 2005 on an eBay auction. He paid for it by selling leg lamps. He restored it from its more modern and re-modelled look to be just like it was in the movie; detailed right down to the shed in the backyard and the leg lamp in the window. It is now open all year for public tours.
Owner Brian JonesCourtesy Scott Meivogel, courtesy of Positively ClevelandDirectly across the street there is the official, A Christmas Story museum, which displays original props, costumes and memorabilia including behind the scenes photos and a gift shop. The house was chosen for the movie as it represents the houses in the neighborhoods of Hammond, Indiana, the hometown of Shepherd. The director of the movie sent people out to 20 different cities to find the right location, one that resembled the Indiana town of the 1940�s � Cleveland was that city.A Christmas Story House convention is held each year at late in November. Actors from the movie are on hand including those evil department store elves. The convention events include a Chinese Turkey Dinner, Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra and all, tours of the house and museum, a BB gun range in the back yard, a Ralphie look-a-like contest, screenings of the movie, Winterfest fireworks, a parade and much more. Owner of the famed home, Jones, sleeps in the house when he is in Cleveland.Other Ralphie StoriesIn the 1994 sequel to A Christmas Story, My Summer Story, the kids are on summer vacation following Ralphie�s Christmas with his Red Ryder BB Gun. A third movie about the Parker family was made for television and is called Ollie Hopnoodle�s Haven of Bliss.gained its popularity not so much in the theater but when it first aired in a 24 hour marathon by the cable network TNT. It then became a tradition and by popular demand it is aired each year beginning on Christmas Eve and running for 24 hours TBS with over 40 million people watching.
A Christmas StoryWatch the movie for the first time or watch it again, then visit the restored house detailed to �its� movie days, it will be like winning a major award.

Over the years I have had the good fortune of "collecting" all kinds of wonderful friends from around the world. Friendships are precious and should be treated like valuable gem stones. One thing I discovered is that the quickest way to find new friends is to open a chocolate company. I can't tell you how many great people I've "met" through the internet on the Choclatique website.
The people who I am most proud to call my friends are those men and women serving in the military especially those serving so far away from home. I have "pen pals" in Bosnia, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan. It is still hard for me to fathom that so many women are serving in these difficult, high risk areas.
As we approach Valentine's Day some of the letters we receive from our soldiers and sailors are enough to break your heart. One that just arrived from Afghanistan is from a member of one of our Special Forces units. These are people who do the most heroic and dangerous jobs in the world and put their lives on the line every day so we can continue to enjoy our lives safely here in the States.
I wanted to share one of the letters I received last week that brought tears to my eyes.
Dear Ed…
It was a rough Christmas for my family and me. My fiancé has cancer and I got back from deployment in the beginning of December knowing I would be back in Afghanistan in January. While I was here in 2009 I discovered Choclatique. I thought it would be a gift worthy of giving to my darling gal. What I really love is being able pick unusual; personal treats for her while I am away. She was going through a real rough time. Right after she got the box of Choclatique, she raved about it for days. I knew she loved it so every month or so I sent another box. I told her I wanted to share a box with her when I got back home. Needless to say she was right! They are amazing!
We knew she had to go for her surgery the day I left to go back Afghanistan. We ordered some chocolate over the Christmas holiday so that we could steal a few special moments together.
It is so hard knowing that the woman you love may not be there the next time you come home, and that you have to leave on the day when she needs you the most. A good bottle of wine and Choclatique's Napa Valley Wine Chocolates made all the worries go away for the time we shared them together. We both feel that no matter where we are on this earth, there are a few things we can taste and feel that will bring back all of the precious memories when we are together. That is how we have grown to cope. It is truly the little things in life which are the most important. It is within these memories where you find true happiness thousands of miles away from home.
She had a successful surgery and is in recovery, and it is my job to keep her spirits high while she recovers.
Afghanistan…It is not all that bad. We just got rid of our cots and have some makeshift beds. The odd thing is the springs in the beds are sideways so instead of getting an up and down motion when you sit on them you get thrown off when you roll over in the middle of the night. The food is standard, but it seems a lot of of it is fried. I miss California's fresh fruit and avocados.
The country itself is very dusty, rocky, and high in elevation. We are about to enter our 120 days of spring-summer winds. They blow every day like a bad northeastern storm. We are not looking forward to that! Most of the camp has air conditioning and heat, so even when it does snow or is 120 degrees we manage to keep comfortable. One thing for sure is that no matter what happens, because of the men I serve with over here, I always feel safe. Good training back in the States and the quality of men that I serve with, helps me I know we will all come back safe.
The locals are friendly and it is nice to see the children wave at us as we pass by. It brings a smile to my face. l feel like we're making a difference here and in some strange way because it reminds me of my home—friendly kids and neighbors waving as I drive to my house. It is still the most dangerous on earth and we have to make sure we are not getting complacent.
Our base is small, but our unit provides all of our necessary stuff…not many extras Every now and then we travel to one of the other larger bases which have an actual exchange, the Burger King, Pizza Huts and some American consumer goods. But I feel we are better off without them, as our base is the perfect meld between sleeping in the dirt, eating boxed ready-to-eat meals without too many distractions.
I really love my job, but the most important thing is to cling on to 3 or 4 memories which you will die for to get back to the States safe and sound. My fiancé is my reason to get back to the states, as we had her trial with cancer. So I have to do my part now and make it safely back to her. Chocolates are one of the 4 memories which we have that brings us back to what we know is waiting for us. Ed, I really miss California. It is heaven on earth. I miss my fiancé and miss walking the beaches and the Santa Monica Pier.
My idea was to create something special for Valentine's Day for my team. Christmas was good for them, but after a few deployments I feel every month or two you have to grab a holiday and try to make it special. It keeps your mind off the things you miss the most, even if it just for a few moments.
That really makes me happy that you can ship over here! I will place my order right away. Thank you again for listening and please know that we really appreciate the amazing chocolates that you create!
Gunnery Sergeant (name withheld)
If you have a loved one serving in the military, please remember them for Valentine's Day with LOVE and Easter with CHICKS, Mother's Day with SPRING, Father's Day CARAMELS, NUTS & NOUGATS. Choclatique will automatically add extra goodies to your shipment at our expense to show our appreciation for the sacrifice and service for our fighting men and women. Call us to make special shipping arrangements to ship as early as possible to US Military APO Addresses.
May God bless them all and bring them back to us safe, sound and soon.

Edvard Munch | Graphic Works from The Gundersen Collection
- 7th April − 23rd September 2012
- Modern Two (Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art) | £7 (£5)
Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is renowned for his preoccupation with universal emotions such as isolation, melancholy, anxiety and love. His graphic works are amongst his most arresting and poignant, and are celebrated world-wide for their technical mastery and visual intensity.
The core of this exhibition features an outstanding group of fifty works on paper by Munch held in a private Norwegian collection, and will be the first time they have been shown in the UK. Featuring rare, hand-coloured versions of iconic images such as The Scream, Anxiety and Madonna, the exhibition explores Munch's rigorous experimentation as he revisited subjects to heighten their emotive impact.

Buttered egg noodles and thinly sliced cucumbers with green onions in a mint or herb vinaigrette would be delicious with the pork and cabbage.
For a pretty presentation, mound the cabbage in the center of a platter and arrange slices of the pork and slices of fresh apple around it. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.
Look for red cabbage with bright color and firmly packed, crisp-looking leaves. Cooking the cabbage in vinegar helps preserve its rosy red color.

Awesome shoe, but too big
"These shoes are good quality and my husband loved them. The only problem was they were huge. I ordered 8.5 and it was more like a 10. I had to send them back. I hope the smaller size fits better."

"What a cute & really comfortable bootie. I got it in dark brown suede(would have gotten other colors also but none in my size). The DSW price was incredible; costs so much more @ other stores. Great with skinny jeans & reg. jeans. Sizing is pretty accurate however my foot is slightly wide so it's a little tight, but a little leather stretching should do the trick."

Skip to comments.Candidates Words on Vietnam Service Differ From History (Blumenthal Lied About Nam Service)
Posted on 05/17/2010 7:58:00 PM PDT by MissesBush
At a ceremony honoring veterans and senior citizens who sent presents to soldiers overseas, Attorney General Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut rose and spoke of an earlier time in his life.
We have learned something important since the days that I served in Vietnam, Mr. Blumenthal said to the group gathered in Norwalk in March 2008. And you exemplify it. Whatever we think about the war, whatever we call it Afghanistan or Iraq we owe our military men and women unconditional support.
There was one problem: Mr. Blumenthal, a Democrat now running for the United States Senate, never served in Vietnam. He obtained at least five military deferments from 1965 to 1970 and took repeated steps that enabled him to avoid going to war, according to records.
The deferments allowed Mr. Blumenthal to complete his studies at Harvard; pursue a graduate fellowship in England; serve as a special assistant to The Washington Posts publisher, Katharine Graham; and ultimately take a job in the Nixon White House.
In 1970, with his last deferment in jeopardy, he landed a coveted spot in the Marine Reserve, which virtually guaranteed that he would not be sent to Vietnam. He joined a unit in Washington that conducted drills and other exercises and focused on local projects, like fixing a campground and organizing a Toys for Tots drive.
Many politicians have faced questions over their decisions during the Vietnam War, and Mr. Blumenthal, who is seeking the seat being vacated by Senator Christopher J. Dodd, is not alone in staying out of the war.
But what is striking about Mr. Blumenthals record is the contrast between the many steps he took that allowed him to avoid Vietnam, and the misleading way he often speaks about that period of his life now...
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
"Candidate's"? It must feel sickening for the NYT to add "democrat" on the title..
This is the ninth thread on the current front page about this.
Wondering how soon the tenth will be posted.
Each article has new and different information. This NY Times piece is the most comprehensive of those posted. I think the most damning too, surprisingly, coming from the Slimes.
"Leftist,Communist, Hate AMERICA, Muslim Radical Terrorist Supporter to the Senate anyway!"
Heck, for a liberal Dem, lying is a resume enhancer ... his polling probably shot up 10-15% since this story broke ....
Not having the luxury of sitting in front of screen all day, I'm glad I caught it on the 9th go-round
Jean Kerry wannabe.
HEY...I noted several articles were already posted clown, and went down the front page and counted them. It took me only a few seconds to do so as they are all right there, so shove it.
Blumenthal is a white guy ... he's fair game for the NY Times even though he's a 'rat. It's interesting that when it comes to Obama there is absolutely no curiosity whatsoever ...
He says he doesn't remember how many deferments (5) he received.
No one was that stoned back then. Even people who spent hours thinking they were butterflies or trees sending out roots knew if they were going to Nam or had a deferment and how many they had gotten.
Bandwidth is cheap ... but words, thoughts, and opinions can be very rich .. and isn't that why we're here?
If a similar story has been posted way too many times for the Mods to stomach, then they'll sort it out on their terms ... otherwise, enjoy the banter as it comes, and don't ever feel intimidated by the self-proclaimed FR Posting Police
Nuff Said,
On a less serious matter, another flattering but untrue description of Mr. Blumenthals history has appeared in profiles about him. In two largely favorable profiles, the Slate article and a magazine article in The Hartford Courant in 2004 with which he cooperated, Mr. Blumenthal is described prominently as having served as captain of the swim team at Harvard. Records at the college show that he was never on the team.
I wonder what else might be discovered?
We may have just taken back the Senate.
So what? He survived boot camp like thousands of others. Semper Fidelis doesn't include lies.
landed a coveted spot in the Marine Reserve, which virtually guaranteed that he would not be sent to Vietnam. He joined a unit in Washington that conducted drills and other exercises and focused on local projects,
Don't for a second think he got there all by himself,
somebody with pull smoothed the way.
This is the kind of brazen Democrat lying that can't be bumped enough.
I hope there ends up being 20 threads.
Horse manure.
This is a case of stolen valor, and this p.o.s. Blumenthal should go to jail.
If he was a Republican, he would.
If John Kerry was a Republican, he would be in jail now.
Hang him out to dry. There's no wiggle room in the phrase "I served in Vietnam". If he's so mentally impaired that he can unintentionally make that clear and colossal a mistake, then he's obviously too mentally impaired to serve as a Senator (or as a state Attorney General). Much more likely, he's just a bald-faced liar, which is also a disqualifying characteristic.
>>> ((Psssttt it was quite fashionable for well connected young men to find a safe slot in a Reserve or National Guard outfit - See Bush, George W.)
pssst. Pilots died flying the F102, which was integral to the continental air defense system. As far as I know, nobody ever died collecting for Toys for Tots.
GWB served honorably in the ANG, and this Blumenthal idjit served honorably in the USMCR. Blumenthal only becomes an idjit when he tries to pawn off his USMCR time as being "in Vietnam".
Otherwise, and that's one huge otherwise, I see scant difference. I knew a kid who got killed changing a truck tire in the peacetime reserves...does that mean wrench turners should be revered more than longshoremen or cooks?
It was a stupid system that let the NG and Reserves become a haven from the draft and deployment. Everybody who did time as a Guardsman or Reservist back then has to answer to their own conscience according to their own motivations for joining.
There are currently a lot of Marine reservists doing Toys for Tots in between deployments, and more than a few former toy collectors who have given their all.
I'll admit it rankles to see the Toys for Tots thing used as a pejorative, but I get your drift. That Blumenthal character is an idjit, alright.
One must prove ones self as a LIAR when one is a true democrat. It shows the public that lying about anything makes no difference to the media or to democratic supporters.
There is only one sin for which the democrat party will excommunicate; that is the sin of unelectability.
Obey, Dodd, Torricelli, and others were/are major dirtbags, but were not given the heave-ho until the polls turned and stayed negative.
I did BCT in a mixed company, NG's AR's, US's and a few of us RA's.
All the NG's and AR's admitted both sober and drunk, they were seeking to avoid VN.
Volunteered? Great, a infantry unit would have loved to had him in it.
I cannot climb in his brain, but he knows what is there.
So why didn't he keep an active (Private) pilots license after discharge?
If John Kerry were a republican he would have been executed for treason decades ago.
So, everyone who served in the Navy or Air Force was a draft dodger? How about those in supply units or the artillery?
If you can't climb into his brain why do you make the assumption of the worst.
He was a Yale grad in 1968 with a highly connected father and granddad. If he wanted to avoid aggravation, unpleasantness and danger he could have found an easier way of doing it without looking bad than flying jets.
Bottom line here ... speaking as a Marine from that era ... I give Blumenthal
some credit ... he survived boot camp at Parris Island.
I would say the same, being a never-served civilian.
Too bad the honorable Marine indoctrination (and I say that as a positive),
with the vow to "keep our honor clean" just didn't stick.
Fortunately, the dishonor is all his, individually.
Marine boot camp whether Parris Island or San Diego is the most challenging of any basic training regimen in the U.S.. Some say the world ... Blumenthal could have joined the Air Force, Navy or Coast Guard.

I kind of want to add to breaking news, but the Admin Moderator might not be happy with me.
We need to give this publicity for the sake of our Vietnam Vets. Cowards like this turkey needs to tossed from office...
As another poster mentioned, the F-102, was designed for "Continental Air Defence', hence the likely hood of V-N being in the rotation was slim. Ya ya ya - a few - tiny number went overseas.
I would agree with that.
However, flying jets has a hazard -- they sometimes crash.
How often do we read of a military jet or helicopter crashing with everyone killed -- normally many times a year.
If you get some bozo in your platoon/squad who is very inept, you might get shot or blown up.
For example, in the Clint Eastwood Heartbreak Ridge that was a foulup in the Recon Platoon that almost killed that football major that Clint Eastwood referred to as a cluster F***.
Screwups in the military with weapsons can kill you.
But if you fly jets, you might get killed by a bad mechanic...
Do you have a source for Blumenthal going through Parris Island? It's possible he went through San Diego, but my guess is that he did the "Platoon Leader Class" and went into the reserves as a second louie.
Thank you for posting this. THE NYT article is the most complete.
I am quite surprised at the tenor of this news story, considering it is the NYT.
Good. Blumenthal HAS to go. He has an uphill climb thanks to this revelation. Wonder what other dirt there about the pretty boy.
Of course this is from a docent at the Evergreen Air Museum, in McMinnville, Oregon, who stated he had x,xxxx hours behind the stick of it and it's descendant the F-1xx.
Of course, I cut the National Guard boy no slack, he's trying to destroy my Nation.
I agree.
All one has to do is just skip over a post if it has been discussed to his/her own satisfaction previously-and without insulting the current poster!
It's unrealistic to think that any/all posters are here so often that they may know for certain that something has or has not been discussed recently.
This kind of thing discourages people from participating and posting. I'm speaking from my personal experience. I came here a couple nights ago with the intention to post an article, but after reading some of the bickering in this thread I decided it wasn't worth the chance of being cut down. As I'm an infrequent poster and visitor I'm not always up on what has been talked about recently.
A message forum should be a fun, informative and- most of all- a civil place for people to come together.

By George Henry/The Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — After watching Kentavious Caldwell-Pope light up his team's zone defense in the first half, Mississippi State coach Rick Ray decided to make a defensive switch.
Ray used a man-to-man defense with Jalen Steele, who was assigned the task of guarding Caldwell-Pope in the second half and switching off on screens.
"We wanted to try and trap him every time he'd come off the ball screen to basically speed his game up," Steele said. "We knew we couldn't let him be as comfortable in the first half."
Steele scored a career-high 21 points, Craig Sword added 14 and Mississippi State won its third straight game with a 72-61 victory over Georgia on Saturday.
Caldwell-Pope finished with 16 points for Georgia, but the fourth-leading scorer in the Southeastern Conference went 0 for 6 from the field in the second half.
And as Caldwell-Pope goes, so does Georgia. It's no secret that he's led the Bulldogs in scoring in all but one game this season.
"After I spoke to the team at halftime, we kept them in front of us," Ray said. "I think the biggest thing was that we kept penetration from happening in the second half."
Steele's consecutive 3-pointers gave Mississippi State (7-7, 2-0 SEC) an 11-point lead, its biggest of the game until the final 10 seconds, with 5:02 remaining.
Charles Mann added 14 points for Georgia (6-9, 0-2), which was coming off a 33-point loss that was its worst Florida since 1967.
Georgia, which has dropped two straight games, got reserves Donte' Williams and Kenny Gaines back from one-game suspensions levied by coach Mark Fox for breaking unspecified team rules.
But their return made little difference in helping the Bulldogs avoid their second straight loss. Williams scored five points in 24 minutes and went 3 for 9 from the free-throw line. Gaines had five points in 12 minutes.
Mississippi State took a six-point lead on Steele's 3 from the left wing with 11:33 remaining, but Georgia forced a 50-all tie on Tim Dixon's putback at the 9:01 mark.
Steele's previous career high was 19 points, scored last March 8 against Georgia.
"I felt like in the second half that they guarded our shooting guard and we didn't guard theirs," Fox said. "We couldn't get Kentavious a good look at the basket, and their shooter got plenty, so that was the difference in the game."
Georgia began the game ranked No. 304 in scoring offense. Other than Caldwell-Pope's 4 for 9 performance on 3s, the rest of the team went 0 for 10.
"We gave up a lot of open shots today," Caldwell-Pope said. "Our defense did not help us in the second half like we wanted it to. They really got up on me. I tried to use my teammates to get open, but their defense really got to me in the second half."
Georgia, which honored former coach Hugh Durham and members of his 1983 Final Four team at halftime, took its biggest lead at seven on Tim Dixon's putback with 5:05 left in the first half.
The lead changed hands five times in the last 1:53 of the first half before Sword's putback with 1 second left putting Mississippi State up 36-35.
Mississippi State was coming off a 56-54 victory over South Carolina on Wednesday in Starkville.
The Bulldogs, who improved to 1-3 on the road in their first season under Ray, are without Wendell Lewis indefinitely as the senior forward recovers from a right patella fracture. Freshmen DeAndre Applewhite and Jacoby Davis are out for the season with anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
But Mississippi State has gotten a boost the last two games from Sword, who had 18 points against South Carolina.
"We've started to make baby steps in improving," Ray said. "We beat New Orleans. We beat South Carolina. But for us to get a true road win is good for our guys. Not only did it happen on the road, but it happened in the SEC."

Refer back to Lip Reconstruction -- Part I for the basic information and history. As with the smaller, non-full thickness defects, symmetry should be strived for with as little disturbance of the surrounding anatomic features as possible. Keep in mind the subunits of the lip and landmarks (white roll, philtrum, etc).
Small full-thickness defects of both the upper and lower lip can usually be treated with wedge excision and primary closure (less than a fourth to a third of the total lip missing).
For optimal cosmetic and functional results, full-thickness lip resections should be repaired in 4 layers.
- First, the submucosa is repaired by using a small-caliber (5-0), soft, nonirritating suture such as silk or Vicryl. The knots should be buried to prevent irregular wound contours and suture spitting.
- Second, the orbicularis oris is repaired by using an absorbable suture (4-0 or 5-0) such as Vicryl, Dexon, or PDS. Careful and meticulous reapproximation of the orbicularis oris is necessary to maintain competence of the oral sphincter.
- Third--realign the vermilion-cutaneous border with an epidermal vertical mattress suture prior to proceeding with the dermis/subcutaneous layer of the cutaneous lip. Proper and exact restoration of this border is crucial for a good aesthetic outcome. At the risk of being redundant, even a 1 mm discrepancy in the outline of the white roll is noticeable at a distance of 3 feet (Zide).
- Fourth, the skin is closed with a monofilament suture, taking great care to maximally evert the wound edges to prevent a depressed and noticeable scar. Small-caliber 5-0 or 6-0 sutures are preferred in this area.
RECONSTRUCTION OF Large Full-Thickness Defects
Upper lip reconstruction is guided by the need to provide a central philtrum and two lateral elements.
Subtotal central defects are best addressed by advancement of lateral elements carrying the orbicularis oris sphincter into an Abbe-Sabattini flap philtral reconstruction.
- Abbe-Sabattini Flap -- First record of this flap belongs to Pietro Sabattini (1838). Gurdon Buck used a cross-lip lap during the Civil War, but it wasn't until 1898 when Robert Abbe pulished his "new plastic operation" that other surgeons took note and named the procedure after him. It is good for replacement of one third to one half of the upper or lower lip. It allows for immediate reconstruction and will give continuity to the oral stoma (mouth). The donor site is closed primarily. The patient must be cooperative as the two lips will be temporarily "connected" until the flap is divided at a second procedure 10-14 days later.
- Reverse Fan Flap -- The flap is based inferiorly rather than superiorly. With the fan flap the lip may have some sensation, but muscular function may be compromised.
- Webster's Combination procedure adds a cross-lip lap to form the philtrum.
- Von Bruns's Nasolabial Flaps (1857) --the flaps are inferiorly based and pivoted on the commissures. The mucosa lining the flaps is later everted to form the vermillion. There are variations of this flap by Fujimori, Gurel, Mavili, and Meyer.
- Karapandzic's Inferiorly based Orbicularis Rotation Flap or Reversed Karapandzic Flap-- This innervated orbicularis oris flap was described in 1974 by Karapandzic and is often called by that eponym. It is composed of the orbicularis oris muscle with vermilion, overlying skin, and underlying mucosa mobilized on peripheral neurovascular pedicles containing the fifth and seventh cranial nerves. This flap preserves motor and sensory innervation, and provides excellent functional restoration. The principal limitation of this technique is the increasingly severe microstomia and accompanying abnormal appearance that result with progressively larger lip defects.
- Reverse Estlander Flap--In 1872 Estlander described a rotation flap from the lateral upper lip around the commissure to repair a defect of the lateral lower lip. The classic Estlander flap will need a secondary revision to restore the sharp angle (commissure) at the corner of the mouth. However, the modified Estlander or reverse Abbe flap preserves the commissure. Photo here
- Webster's Flap adds crescentic perialar excisions to bilateral cheek advancement flaps to yield excellent results in lateral upper lip defects. It is not sufficient for total upper lip reconstruction.
- Levator anguli oris flap (Tobin and O'Daniel, 1990) is an innervated flap that is based at the oral commissure and transposed to replace the lateral lip element.
Lower lip reconstruction
In the lower lip, innervated advancement of the preserved lateral lip elements are preferred to depressor anguli oris flaps unless the defect reaches the commissure on one side.
- Bilateral orbicularis oris flaps (Karapandzic) can be used to reconstruct as much as three fourths of the lower lip. While it provides a complete oral sphincter and oral competence, it often results in a small oral aperture which can be a problem for denture wearers.
- Freeman (1958) or Webster-Coffey-Kelleher (1960) modification of the Bernard bilateral cheek advancement flap technique. Both approaches preserve motor and sensory innervation to the residual lateral lip elements although both distort the oral commissures, and oral circumference is progressively lost as the defect enlarges.
- Gillies's fan flap is basically an extension of the Estlander-type vermillion-bordered flap, enlarged to include tissue lateral to the corner of the mouth. When used unilaterally it is good for defects up to a half of the lower lip. It does not decrease the size of the stoma (mouth opening) much, if at all. The donor defects close directly. The commissure and width of the mouth remain unchanged. However, there is little or no muscular function because it is a denervated flap. This can lead to problems with oral competence and decreased/poor sensation. There may also be some blunting or obliteration of the nasolabial folds.
RECONSTRUCTION of Total Lip
Upper lip reconstruction
- The Abbe-Sabattini flap philtral reconstruction may be performed either concurrently with the lateral element reconstruction or later. Deferring it can be particularly valuable if the reconstruction is asymmetric because the Abbe flap can be placed precisely in the midline after the lip has settled and the lateral element junctional scar ignored.
- Bilateral levator anguli oris flap (Tobin and O'Daniel, 1990) is an innervated flap that is based at the oral commissure and transposed to replace the lateral lip element. In combination with an Abbe flap, it can reconstruct the entire upper lip.
- Bilateral Karapandzic's Inferiorly based Orbicularis Rotation Flap use in combination with an Abbe flap. (picture)
- Bilateral Fan Flap (Gillies') is good for total defects of both the lower or upper lip.
- Kazanjian-Converse technique of superiorly based lower cheek flaps
Lower lip reconstruction
- Bilateral, innervated, depressor anguli oris myocutaneous flaps serve well. These flaps provide a superior functional restoration compared with previously described methods.
- Webster Cheek Advancement Flap can be used for total lower lip reconstruction. It can often result in a tight lower lip and poor lip function.
- Bilateral Fan Flap --see above Gillies's fan flap
- Karapandzic's Technique can be used to reconstruct up to three fourths of the lower lip.
- Infection is uncommon but is usually heralded by pain on days 4 to 8. They are managed by antibiotics and wound care.
- Hematomas and seromas can occur and will increase the likelihood of flap necrosis.
- Flap cyanosis in the immediate postoperative period is often the result of venous congestion. If thought to be due to excessive wound tension, suspicious stitches can be removed in an attempt to optimize the outcome.
- Flap failure or necrosis is often due to poor planning or design which underscores the need for careful preparation. Cigarette smoking can increase the risk of flap loss by up to three-fold. When necrosis does occur it will usually involve the distal tip and should be managed expectantly. Unless there are signs of local infection, debridement should not be performed as the eschar will serve as a biologic dressing at worst.
Note--most of the photos were scanned in from the SRPS (5th reference below). This is by no means an exhausted review of the flaps possible for lip reconstruction. When the cheek, as well as the lip is missing often free flaps will need to be done to bring into the area new tissue. Often it is the radial forearm flap that is used when that is necessary.

By Harvey Valentine/The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — John Wall finished Washington's last game on the bench after getting two technical fouls.
He stuck around for the finish of his best NBA performance Monday, scoring 17 of his career-high 47 points in the fourth quarter as the undermanned Wizards beat the Memphis Grizzlies, 107-94.
"I was just in a zone. I made my first couple of shots and I knew I was in a great rhythm. Ten points in the first quarter, I knew I had it going," Wall said after posting the third-highest point total in the NBA this season.
Wall, who added eight assists and seven rebounds, shot 13 of 22 from the field and made a career-high 19 free throws on 24 attempts.
"That was an incredible performance for him. We jumped on it and he carried us. It felt to me that it was all under control. All within our offense. All within what we were doing," Wizards coach Randy Wittman said.
Emeka Okafor added 21 points and nine rebounds for a Washington team that was without five members of its rotation.
Already without guard Bradley Beal (sprained left ankle), guard A.J. Price (groin) and forward Trevor Ariza (flu), Wittman announced before the game that forwards Nene (sore right knee) and Martell Webster (abdomen strain) were also out.
"I'm just so proud of these guys," Wittman said. "This is an incredible win for us."
The Wizards (26-44) are 21-16 since Wall returned from a left knee injury.
"When somebody has it going like that, there's really nothing you can do. You just put a hand up and hope that he misses," Memphis' Mike Conley said. "He had one of those nights where he was feeling it. We threw everything we had at him and he made the plays."
Conley led Memphis with 23 points, and Quincy Pondexter and Jerryd Bayless scored 14 apiece.
It was Washington's sixth straight home win, while Memphis (47-23), which had won three of four overall, dropped its fourth straight road game.
Memphis had an injury issue of its own as center Marc Gasol missed his second straight game after aggravating an abdominal tear Friday at New Orleans.
"Tonight we had to battle from behind; we had our moments when we tied the game," Memphis coach Lionel Hollins said. "We just couldn't sustain anything because John had such a good shooting night. He hit shots inside and out, and Emeka Okafor dominated the paint for the most part."
Washington led 76-74 to start the fourth quarter and went up six after Cartier Martin hit a 3-pointer and Wall made one of two free throws.
After Tony Allen's free throw cut it to five, Wall hit two free throws and then, after a miss by Allen, Chris Singleton's 3-pointer gave Washington a 91-81 lead with six minutes left.
With just over four minutes to go, Wall hit a jumper as the shot clock expired to make it 94-83. The lead grew to 13, but Memphis rallied and twice got within four in the final minutes before the Wizards scored the final nine points.
It was a much different ending than Saturday's loss, when Wall was ejected in the third quarter against Golden State.
"I feel like I really let the team down," Wall said. "I already had one technical and you've got to be smarter than that. We still had a chance to win that game. Right now, we're just trying to salvage the games we can win and finish the season strong, so I knew tonight I had to step up big."
Wall scored eight straight to give the Wizards an early 12-4 lead.
Down by two after a quarter, Memphis, keyed by 3-pointers from Austin Daye and Pondexter, opened the second quarter with an 8-0 run to take a 32-26 lead.
Memphis built the lead to nine before Wall scored six straight to make it 39-36. His driving scoop shot put the Wizards up three late in the half before Conley's 3-pointer made it 55-all at the break.
Wall finished the first half with 26 points.
Notes: Beal has missed nine of 12 games since injuring his ankle March 3. . Price missed his eighth straight game and Ariza his second. . After returning home from a four-game West Coast string for Monday night's game, the Wizards go right back on the road for games at Oklahoma City (Wednesday) and Orlando (Friday).

Introducing the steerable lure, the Think Tank Lures Triggerfish features Think Tank's revolutionary Z-Trieve steering technology that allows you to fish in ways and places you never thought possible. Go under that tree - into that cove - weave through those pads - the Think Tank Lures Triggerfish responds to your every command, giving you limitless possibilities with every cast.
|Think Tank
Line Recommendations: Use Braid up to 30lbs & Mono between 6-12lbs for best performance.
Here are some of the basics:
Steering - Cast and retrieve with your rod tip up, taking up slack until your line is completely out of the water. When you want to change direction, pause your retrieve and allow the head to flip. Resuming your retrieve will make the Triggerfish dive and turn in the opposite direction. Keep your rod up and the line out of the water. As the Triggerfish gets closer, lower your rod tip, finishing at or below horizontal at the end of the retrieve. Alternately, Triggerfish can be turned by rapidly accelerating. Once a direction has been established, accelerate your retrieve and maintain a fast retrieve until Triggerfish turns sharply. Great for active fish.
The Diving Chug - To call fish up from the depths, begin by establishing contact with the lure after the cast with your rod tip up. Stop your retrieve and lower your rod to give slack to the line. Twitch forcefully and sharply, then allow slack. Triggerfish will simultaneously chug, dive, and turn, causing a serious surface commotion. As the lure gets closer, lower your rod tip so the lure is not yanked out of the water by the twitch. Walking the dog will never be the same.
The Jumping Minnow - Pause your retrieve, then give a steady sweep with your rod tip finishing high. Triggerfish will turn, dive, and jump out of the water like a baitfish running for its life. Change up the speed and length of the sweep to control how far it jumps. Extra points for splashy landings.
The Crippled Dive - Quick, short tugs on your line will make the Triggerfish dig underwater and dart from side-to-side erratically. Especially deadly on following fish.
The Barrel Roll - Hold your rod horizontally when reeling and the Triggerfish will perform a barrel roll. Raise your rod tip to stop the roll and go in one direction - if you don't already have a fish on.

Comments: The TriggerFish is an oustanding non-hype real deal lure. It does exactly what ThnkTank Lures claims and is easy to control. I have them in several colors for fresh and saltwater. Even the package is first rate. 2 thumbs up ThinkTank Lures!!
From: Skip: Lewes, DE
Comments: Last week I was on the road 20 min when I realized I had left my fishing pack with all my Triggerfish at home. 10 seconds later I had the truck turned around. I don't think I'd do that for any other lure. In less than 6 months I've already had some of the most memorable catches in 20 yrs of fishing. Now I keep a silver shad and chrome dusk under my seat for emergencies.
From: Drew: Auburndale, FL
Comments: I have been fishing the TriggerFish for quite some time now and am continually impressed by it. The various actions you can create with this lure make it extremely versatile. It takes a few practice casts/retrieve to learn the proper way to get the lure to respond in the different fashions, but is not difficult. This lure is not only fun to fish, but it flat out solicits some awesome strikes..For some reason the fish just want to crush this lure, and typically attack it with a vengeance. If you enjoy hard hitting topwater action, this lure is a must for your tackle box.
From: Morgan: Madison, Wi
Comments: I have been using the Triggerfish as my primary topwater lure for the past two seasons. It is a fantastic bait that has made me re-think when and where to go topwater. My confidence has soared along lily pad beds because this bait can run parallel to the weed edge for as long as I wish. It throws very long, and I steer it up to the edge of the weeds and just rip it along, inducing reaction strikes from largemouth, smallmouth and pike. Stump fields are another big producer for me with the Triggerfish. I can work from stump to stump on one cast. The Triggerfish is very steer-able once you get the hang of it. I learned the basics with this bait in fewer than 15 minutes and have been a believer ever since my first session with it. Use braided line, keep your rod tip up and just pause to re-direct from one spot to another. My favorite catches have been with smallies who seem to go nuts over this bait during the fall feed. It's a fantastic bait!
From: John: SE Michigan
Comments: The wife and I added these lures to our tackle box about 6 months ago, and they are hands down, the best lures we own. We've have a creek behind our home with countless obstacles. In the past if we wanted to get up against the bank where the mature bass were hiding it was always a risk. After two visits to the creek with Triggerfish we were successfully driving these lures through places we wouldn't have dared gone before. I honestly couldn't tell you how many fish we have caught with these lures. The last few days some snook have begun making their way up our creek and they have been hitting on these lures as well (can't wait for season to start!).
From: Cecil and Peggy: Alva, FL
Comments: sadly, I catches fisherman and not fish. Bought 7 at a show when they first came out, none worked properly out of the package. Too many good products on TW to carry this one.
From: Jake: NY
Comments: These lures run upside down. I don't have a problem turning them. Great idea. They just keep flipping over on me, even with bigger hooks.
From: Joe: Augusta, Maine
Comments: To the reviewer rtowns from Voorhees: The issues that you describe should not be happening. Please contact Tackle Warehouse or write to us at email@example.com and we will arrange for a replacement. If there is a mechanical issue with the lure we would like to examine it and determine what is causing the atypical behavior.
From: ThinkTank Lures
Comments: A great idea, I like new products that are different than the norm. I actually caught a fish on the first cast when trying it out. I don't think I will be using it very often though. I got it working like the video, it was dead calm out. It is waaaay too touchy, a slight increase in speed will make it barrel roll or change directions and I do mean the slightest change. Also the blade will seize up if there is anything in the water to get caught up in the small gap between the bait. A bigger gap would have solved this problem. I would also prefer a larger blade for more commotion, when it does work it is very subtle. Like I said before it is a cool idea but personally I can't imagine it getting much more time on the water.
From: rtowns: Voorhees, NJ
Comments: Being a topwater fanatic, I jumped on this last summer. Since then I've found myself using it more and more, and I now have a dedicated rod on hand at all times. With all the miles I've put on this bait, I here's my take on it. Pros- easy to learn, unique actions (lots of them), durability, confidence-inspiring look, good producer, really fun to throw. Cons- harder to control if there's a lot of chop or wind (I'll still use it for twitching/deadsticking), if there's filamentous algae around, keep it in the box. Bottom line- this is the one lure I use more than any other and the fish never seem to get tired of it, even though I fish a limited number of smaller waters. If you're not a straight up chuck and wind type the small effort needed to learn this bait will be well worth it.
From: Kevin: North Waterford, ME
Comments: I think I would make a good topwater for bluefish, just make sure you don't use a leader.
Comments: I posted a message a few months back. Since that time I was able to boat some fish on this thing. It takes a ton of work to get this lure to go where you want it, and part of it depends on which way it lands to see if it will start out going the direction you want it to or the opposite direction. End of the day you can run this lure along banks and under docks and around anything and everything. Fish seem to slam it because you can run it where not to many other lures can run. I stand by my prior comments. For $13.00 it is worth trying one. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE !! Rod tip up, braided line, crank, stop, let it turn around crank again.
Comments: I got my Triggerfish in the mail a few days ago and got to try it out today. I must say that it fishes very different from any other lure that i have ever fished. I took it to a local body of water that doesnt produce topwater and was just practicing to get used to it. It took me all of a few casts and reading the back of the package to get myself going in sync with it. Its no lazy mans lure by any means. Put your mind into what your doing and focus on the fishing and you will get it. Im excited to see what i can do with this lure now that im grounded well in how it works.
From: Kyle: Hutchinson, KS
Comments: had the bait working for a little bit but it was just to windy when i was trying it out. made it very hard to use in the wind. cant wait for a calm day to test this bad boy out!
From: Matt: IL
Comments: I'm a Intermediate/Amateur level bass fisherman. Received the Think Tank Trigger Fish today. Only had about an hour after work to hit the Housatonic River before it got dark and had the Chocolate Lab Pup with me so I didn't have much time. I cast the lure into timber I would never even think of with lower quality lures. In spots a one foot channel to walk it through. I have the up most confidence I can put this lure where it matters and not lose it due to a snag. All I can say is that with in six casts I had the lure working just like the video. I was able to work it in and out of big timber and brush, stop it and turn it on a dime. Chug it. Pop it, Swim It and everything else the video shows. Read the directions, hold the rod tip up and keep the line out of the water until you get the hang of it. After that about all you can do is find the fish. Very impressive lure! Now I can't wait to get on the lake for a day. I have a video of my test of the lure right out of the box. Took it with my Hat Cam and GoPro 960 Wide Angle. Can upload on request.
From: Carl: Derby, CT
Comments: i ordered the basic perch one and finally got to test it out. it does take a little time to get it right, your line does have to be completely out of the water in order for it to work like what you see in the vids. but caught some good three and four pounders off it. most of the hits came as soon as i paused the trigger fish from a fast zigzag. it really looks like an injured perch trying to get away, the bass went nuts for it. i can do pretty much anything with this lure i can pop it jerk it buzz it. ready to catch some monsters with this lure!!
From: Thaoe: MN
Comments: These things work! I have some of the colors that aren't available on TW, and I feel that color is very important with these lures. My favorite way to fish them is to make jerks, sort of like a jerkbait. And then just let it sit at the surface. That pause is just irresitable. I feel a perch color would be the best in most ares but choose your local baitfish as your color.
From: Kory: Saugus, MA
Comments: Takes a little time to get use to. Perfect combination topwater. First day out caught an 8lbs 2oz , 6lbs, and several 2 to 3lbers. Explosive strikes. I would recommend a 6'6 to 7' medium heavy fast tip rod with a reel of no less than 6:3:1. with a minimum 12lbs line. Tackle Warehouse are you planning on getting any of the other colors?
From: Mike: Norman Park, GA
Comments: So far so good. Between this and my Ribbits I can handle most topwater. It seems like smallies like it alot they really go after it.
From: JJ: Dracut, MA
Comments: Very versatile bait. Work it slow, fast, or anywhere in between. I was surprised how much commotion it made when I chugged it but it only came forward a few inches. Got my first catfish on top, a few trout, and plenty of bass. Very pleased with this one.
From: Wes: State College, PA
Comments: Excelent lure. The swimm in zigzag is totaly different. The lure is one big innovation. I love this lure!!!
From: Alberto: Len, Guanajuato, Mexico
Comments: I get it where I want it then work it with quick twitches...It's scary how much it looks like a dying shiner. The bass agree. Not exactly the most relaxing fishing cause I'm always expecting it to get pummeled but I'll live with it.
From: Seth: Gainesville, FL
Comments: It just takes some time to get used to this lure, take it out and just play around with it, and soon enough you'll be retreiving it just like on the video! BE paitent, hey did you "walk the dog "right your first time out with a stick bait?
From: Mrbond007: East Lansing, MI
Comments: I agree with Chace and California below, I can't help but think there is nothing wrong with the lures people stated below. This is not a traditional lure by any stretch of the imaginiation. So it won't retrieve like one; and that's a good thing! After 4-5 casts, I was zig-zagging the few I bought like a pro. As mentioned below, the key is to keep the line out of the water (like in the instructions). It's a snap to steer this thing in-and-out of standing timber; just STOP the lure to change directions! -To address the complaint of the lure somewhat retrieving on it's side; it's best to look at where the line tie is located. Any floating lure with the line tie on top will have a non-tradtional retrieve. This ain't your grandpa's crankbait folks, it's very different. :-) It's supposed to retrieve like that, and aggressive topwater fish like it like that! -Follow the instructions on the package and the website, and you'll be steering this bad boy like a pro; it's simple. -Great job Thinktank, it's nice to see some true innovation in the industry.!
From: D: Missouri
Comments: I agree with Chace below, there is nothing wrong with this lure, it works exactly as it claims and shown in the video. Whether you use braid or mono, keep your line out of the water and it'll work fine. I own 4 of these and they all work fine so its obviously not a case of a "bad" batch. Don't be quick to say it doesn't work when its user error.
From: California
Comments: Sweet! Couldn't wait to try this one now my club is all over it. For all you noobs out there keep your line out or the water and I mean all of it when you are steering it. And yeah it's always on its side that's how it does what it does...amazing
From: Chace: Santee, SC
Comments: I agree, mine does not work. I have tried it on braid and mono. Just tries to swim on its side, or the rear treble hook catches the rear spinner. It simply doesn't do anything, and it does not buzz or steer as in their video. Maybe its a bad batch or their proto type was different. Either way when you spen $13.00 dollars on a lure you would expect it to work. The Think Tank Company needs to be replacing these or refunding us some money. Truly unethical to advertise and for it to not perform as the video shows.
From: Don: St. Cloud, FL
Comments: I have had no luck getting mine to run properly. Very dissapinted.
From: Patrick: Lafayette, GA
Comments: I love this lure! The video pales in comparison to what you can actually do with it. I've been fishing in spots with lots of overhanging trees and getting absolutely slammed including my new personal best 9-7. So easy to use once I hung it on the powerpro braid. I'm stocking up on this one. Great, great lure!
From: Nick: Welsh, LA
Comments: I recently bought a couple of Trigger Fish (Classic Perch and Ghost Rainbow Trout), but I wasn't able to make them working properly at all! When retrieved, they loy down on a side without any action. I work them with a 6'6", 1 oz class, MH St Croix rod with 16 lbs nylon. I hope they do not belong to a wrong batch!
From: Mario: Italy
Comments: Mine works great on 30 pound braid on a medium rod, when i used copoly on a medium heavy not so much
From: George
Comments: Sorry to hear that some of you are having difficulties. While the overwhelming majority of feedback we have received has been very positive, we are dedicated to making it a full 100%. There will be a how-to video completed shortly that will show techniques from a vantage point of behind the angler, showing how simple fishing with Triggerfish really is.
From: Think Tank Lures
Comments: I guess im not the only one or maybe we just dont know how to use it but it jus swims on its side and dosent do much. I tired it on braided and mono, fast a slower baitcasters and still the same problem... No action, and no control of it once so ever. What "Think Tank Lures" need to do is make somekind of video we as the buyers can figure out how the hell to do this. Great concept but if majority of us dont know how to use it then its useless.
From: Leng: Siloam Springs, AR
Comments: Add me to the list of people who thinks they got a bad one b/c I took this thing out and I'm telling you there's no way this is user error. The lure neither worked nor looked like it ever could work. Threw it on braid and followed the instructions ... the prop doesn't spin, it doesn't "steer" in ANY direction. It basically just rolls under the surface like a wet noodle. Needless to say, nothing like what you see on the video. Just for the record, going to try it out in a swimming pool and if I get the same results, will exchange it for another one in the hopes that it truly was just a bad batch.
From: Dax: Burbank, CA
Comments: Gimmicky looking lure, I know. I was not interested. However, after I watched the video and saw the control, I had to get it. As for those of you say it "just comes back on it's side"...yes, that is true, the lure is worked on its side on the retrieve. (I am fairly certain that is by design) HOWEVER, the prop makes some commotion, and the lure it self leaves a nice V-wake. THE KEY IS TO STOP CRANKING, and let it stop !!! When you start up, it will switch direction. That is what makes this VERY cool !!! I got mine today and had to try it out. I just tossed it in a drainage basin down the street, I was so excited to see it work. You can swim this thing back and forth with out a problem..the control is AMAZING !!! It is like walking the dog but you can get in between and under whatever you are fishing near. I haven't caught a fish on it yet, but based on the control I plan to work it under docks and plan to have fish hooked SOON on this thing !! For $13 bucks I would HIGHLY recommend trying one out !!!
From: Pete: Cleveland, OH
Comments: Beautiful looking bait. I don't know if it's because of the profile or the way it moves but this puts fish in the boat big time. Got some nice spots and 2 monster crappie last time out. I like to fish it a lot slower than in the video but maybe that will change when it warms up. Sticky hooks holding up fine. This one will see a lot of action I think it might be a good big fish bait.
From: Dave: Eclectic, AL
Comments: this thing caught me a fish on the first trip i can take this thing to any spot on one cast im 13 and i absolutley hammer the fish.
From: Colin
Comments: My buddy gave me a baby bass said he couldn't work it right it looked cool so I was OK with that. Had some problems at first and put it away in the box. Took it out again last week to try some canal fishing in a spot that gets pretty hammered. After 30 minutes or so I finally got how to work this beast now I have it tied on all the time. I wish there was a black or real dark color. Finish looks pretty durable but we'll see.
From: Louis: Ft Lauderdale, FL
Comments: I am having the exact same problem. I wonder if I got a bad batch. They just swim on thier side. I followed the directions on how to work the bait, but the bait doesnt do anything.
Comments: this lure does not work at all..when u cast it out and retrieve it back in..it just comes in on its side and does nothing but look wrong. unless there is something im completely doing wrong...its useless
From: Levi: Sacramento, CA
Comments: I've been waiting for this lure. It runs great but haven't caught a fish yet. It's steerable and does what the manufacturer claims. I wish it was more noisier or has a bigger presence. Maybe a bigger blade on the back. I think its a bit small and quiet. Maybe they should have a bigger noisier version. Or maybe I'm just used to bigger baits. But I'll keep trying.
From: Chris: Ca Delta
Comments: i just picked a few of these lures,seen alot of videos on them and have tested them in my community indoor pool.let me tell you this lure is going to become a top producer this spring/summer.the ability to toss it into the shallow and banks and control/steer it around logs,laydowns,rocks and weedlines.this thing is going to slay the biggins.
From: Steve: Homer Glen, IL
Comments: After seeing the video for this new lure, I could not wait to try them out. I must say I was not disappointed! I did find that BRAIDED line works much better than mono with this topwater bait,,, as with the braid you can really "steer" the lure, and control it. This is also a lure that you need to practice different retrieves, but once you get it down, you won't be disappointed!
From: Dennis: Simi Valley, CA
Comments: Pretty cool lure, I waited a long time for this one and now I fish it a lot. Finally a lure I can steer towards whatever I want. This is without a doubt the most different and innovative lure to hit the market in a long time. You want to spend some time learning how to get it to do all its different maneuvers and thankfully the instructions spell that out real easy
From: Rich: Oak View, CA
Comments: Here is a video I found several months ago and have been looking for this lure everywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKCHtMxZckg

Giordana knows that you like options, which is why it released the popular Laser Compression Shorts without the bib strap uppers. But, just like the bib iteration, the Laser Compression Shorts incorporate all of the same compressive fabrics and advanced technologies into this version. The result is, yet again, one of the most supportive and comfortable pair of cycling shorts available.
Starting with the bulk of the shorts' construction, Giordana used its patented Moovix fabric. This material features an omnidirectional elasticity, which promotes a complete freedom of movement. The moderate denier of Moovix also naturally promotes a positive blood circulation to the heart, meaning that the more blood that you're able to move to your muscles, the better your output and recovery will be. And while Giordana stakes the claim that Moovix will increase muscle output by 12%, we find that its most vital characteristics involve the inhibiting of muscle oscillation as a result of road vibration -- a common component to early onset fatigue.
Moving to the inner legs and seat panel, Giordana placed an even stronger fabric called Zaffiro. This material is a certified Power Lycra with a composition weight of 200g/m2. But, unlike Moovix, Zaffiro features a purposefully denser weave with Giordana's SUPER 40 construction technology. This guarantees a continuation of Moovix's aforementioned characteristics, only with a higher level of durability and friction-reduction at the highest points of saddle abrasion. Around the area of the core, the Laser utilizes Kite mesh panels in order to effectively regulate your core temperature. Additionally, Giordana placed its new Ametista fabric around the waist as part of its Core Contour System. Again, we see a return of 200g/m2 Lycra, only now, Ametista is characterized by its woven-in carbon threads -- it puts the 'Carbon' in 'FormaRed Carbon.' With the carbon filament, material stretch is controlled, but not just in the supportive sense. Basically, the carbon reinforces the honeycomb-knit Lycra, making it lighter, yet stronger, and allowing it universally stretch in all directions, not just four-way. Additionally, Giordana claims that the carbon fiber blocks out static and rogue atmospheric electrical interference for an increased anaerobic output and a delayed onset of fatigue.
As for the fit, the Laser benefits from Giordana's innovative contoured cut. Essentially, the shorts are created on a curve in order to clone your body in the cycling position. By doing this, abrasion is minimized, and fabric bunching and pinching is eliminated. To secure this position, Giordana incorporated its LoPro 45 leg cuffs. This new AeroLite design uses a wide, low-profile cuff that holds strong while maintaining a slight aerodynamic presence. And for further comfort, the entirety of the shorts has been constructed with four-needle flatlock stitched seams.
The shorts' chamois is one that Giordana touts as being the most advanced in the industry -- the Cirro Omniform. We don't deal in absolutes, but we're able to say that it's the first chamois that we've heard of with Aloe Vera particles directly infused into the threads of the microfiber. Aloe is not only a natural bacteria fighter, but its implementation in the fiber provides a cooling effect that protects and heals during activity. Below the skin layer, the Cirro has a 4mm-thick pad of waffled-texture expanding memory foam. The texture aids in ventilation by moving moisture to the perimeter of the chamois where accelerated evaporation can occur. The final layer of the chamois is a thick section of hand-sewn open cell padding with recessed channels for pressure relief.
The Giordana Laser Compression Shorts are available five sizes from Small to XX-Large and in the color Black/black.

Nice Jellies
"decided to order these; saw good deal on them. Arrived quickly; I wear 7-7/12 & they fit very nice. Doesn't hurt my feet like original jellies when I was a kid! I would like to get other colors when in stock. one bow had a slight defect though."

Unfortunate design flaw
"I really like the look and feel of this shoe BUT there is a small design flaw which I noticed only after walking around in them for a few minutes - there is an uncomfortable part of the rubber that sticks out right under the bow, and it rubs painfully on the top of my feet! Not wanting to take the chance, I decided to return the pair, unfortunately."
