Get ready for all those beeps, buzzers, victory horns and cheering crowds. "American Ninja Warrior," one of summer's most popular network television shows, will be kicking off its 10th season Wednesday night on NBC with some new obstacles, younger competitors and at least one intriguing twist: A monstrous "warped wall" that rises 18 feet high.
Among the hundreds of contestants across the nation who will be jumping, swinging, climbing and navigating their way through increasingly difficult obstacles on this action-packed show — all with dreams of securing the top prize of $1 million — are 15 people with New Jersey ties.
They range in age from 21 to 40, and their occupations are just as diverse. One is a carpenter, one is a medical doctor, one is an auctioneer and one is a World Cup gymnast. And not all Ninjas have thin frames and six-pack abs. One Jersey contestant weighed 300 pounds before he started training and dieting, and he managed to get his weight down to 220 while preparing for the show.
Most of the Jersey contestants appearing on Season 10 began their journey on the Ninja course in Philadelphia, one of six cities where qualifying rounds were taped during the past three months. Several Garden Staters trekked to Minneapolis for the opening round. So, if you're watching the show on NBC this summer, pay close attention to the Philly and Minneapolis qualifiers. (Those episodes are scheduled to air June 25 and July 2.)
The top finishers in each of the city finals will swing their way into the national finals in Las Vegas, where four stages of intense obstacles will have to be completed for a shot at the grand prize. How tough is it? In the show's nine previous seasons, only two athletes finished all the obstacles in Vegas, both during the same season. The one with the fastest time won the top prize.
Season 10 of "American Ninja Warrior" will feature two "warped walls" - including one that is 18 feet high - in the city qualifier round. (Len Melisurgo | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com)
New warped wall
This season's competitors on "American Ninja Warrior" are the first to face two warped walls instead of just one, but they have a choice if they make it to that obstacle in the city qualifier round.
The contestants can ignore the bigger 18-foot wall and take three shots at jumping up the standard 14.5-foot wall. Their other option: They can get one try at the 18-foot wall, and if they make it they win an instant prize of $10,000. If they don't make it up the taller wall, they get only one shot — instead of three — at the smaller wall.
Getting up the wall is needed to hit the red victory buzzer and qualify for the next round. So, it is a gamble that could hurt competitors who aren't so good at scaling insanely tall walls with just a short running start.

Tough training: At that time, he was living in a rural area of England with no nearby training facilities. When he moved back to the U.S., he said he promised his kids if they could find a Ninja gym, they would go there to train. In Burlington County, they found the gym owned by Ninja superstar Chris Wilczewski, and Kupper started training there last July.

Annika Nieshalla of West Milford competed on "American Ninja Warrior" in 2017 in the Cleveland city finals and is returning for Season 10, which starts airing on Wednesday, May 30, 2018. (Duane Prokop | NBC)
Age: 23
Jersey ties: Resides in West Milford, Passaic County
Occupation: Nursing school student at Ramapo College; professional rock climber
Ninja Warrior experience: Competed in the Cleveland city finals in 2017 (Season 9)
Health scare: When Nieshalla was in her late teens, she underwent surgery on her arm because of Dermatofibrosarcoma, a rare type of skin cancer known as DFSP. Although the cancer was completely removed, there's a high chance of recurrence.
Toughest challenge: She believes mental obstacles are tougher to overcome than the physical obstacles on the Ninja course, because you need a lot of focus and calm nerves to succeed.
Hobbies: Staying active. ("I like learning new things," she said.)
Favorite Ninjas: Drew Drechsel, a Ninja superstar who owns a gym in Connecticut. ("He's just a very good and down-to-earth person," and helped with her training techniques.) She also has a lot of respect for Ninja veteran Joe Moravsky, a meteorologist from Connecticut.
Ninja motivation: Nieshalla works at a rock climbing and Ninja Warrior gym and started watching the show because her brother was a big fan. "I saw it and thought, 'It looks really cool.'" So she gave it a try.

Ninja motivation: "I had been a fan of the show since I was a little kid, ever since it was on G4, the Japanese version. In high school, I started working for a gym in Northvale that had all the obstacles. I was hoping the show would still be around when I got older… Luckily, it was."
Toughest challenge: "The hardest part about competing on the show is the fact that you're doing it at like three in the morning." (The show's tapings usually start about 9 p.m. and sometimes last through 6:30 a.m.)
Favorite Ninja: Geoff Britten of Maryland, the first Ninja competitor ever to finish all four stages of the national finals.

1,894 international runs in a calendar year, nine one- day centuries, Man of the Match in all the finals, Shane Warne tamed in Test match cricket, Brian Lara overtaken comprehensively, comparisons with Sir Don Bradman. Can 1999— can any year in this millennium or the next— get any better for Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar?
Sachin is loath to reveal his personal goals. But in a moment of rare candour just before the team left for New Zealand, the Master Blaster told Harsha Bhogle "My target is the World Cup" when asked if in 1999, he had the same kind of year as 1998, he would have achieved his target.
How does the brain behind the most recognised face on Indian television— the key to the 1999 World Cup campaign— tick? Sachin Tendulkar spoke to Amrit Mathur over two long sessions to provide some answers in this, his most detailed "cricket interview" yet
Do you set yourself short- term goals in the quest for long-term goals— like Sunil Gavaskar's Test hundreds (34) or Allan Border's Test runs (11,174)— and go about achieving them year by year?
No, I don't like to have goals in front of me. Because if you think about specific targets your game is affected, you start thinking of these things more. Better to just play normally and let things happen. If they have to happen, they will happen. You can't will them to happen. Records can become a burden, ultimately it is a matter of destiny... I've been playing international cricket for 10 years, there is still a long way to go. If my form and fitness remain, then let's see.
On the whole, your feats in the last 10 seasons must give you a very heady feeling of accomplishment?
Let me put it this way: I am OK, I have no complaints.
With the World Cup just six months away, are you finding it difficult to keep your motivation going against weaker opponents like, say, New Zealand?
No, it has never been the case. I always feel motivated to play for the country, regardless of the opponent. There is no question of relaxing or not concentrating enough because it takes just one ball to get out, just a minor lapse of concentration to lose one's wicket. Over a period of time, it could even affect your form. That's why, regardless of the opposition or the stage of the match, I try and remain focused and do my best.
Has it always been this way?
Yes. When I started playing I did not think of anything long-term. I just found myself in a Test match with a very difficult Wasim Akram against me. It was a tough situation. I was 16, totally nervous and did not know what was happening. My feet were not moving, my mind was almost blank, I thought the whole thing too competitive. That is why when I see a youngester beginning a Test career I tell him that nervousness is normal, don't let it trouble you too much. It will pass after a while.
Will the meeting with Don Bradman rank as a high point you will cherish for all time to come?
Oh, of course! It's an honour to be praised by someone like him. Sir Don is of the opinion that (Sir Gary) Sobers was the greatest- ever cricketer, and for someone like him to say good words about me is a thrilling feeling... I am told that even Sir Gary had some very kind words to say about me on TV the other day.
How do you handle the enormous burden of expectation that the praise of peers and the hopes of your countrymen bring?
I realise that people expect me to do well all the time. That's to be expected because everybody follows cricket closely in India and they all want us to win. So I try to do the best I can, but I don't think of it too much in the sense I don't let it weigh on my mind or let it bother me. If that happens it would only add to the pressure and perhaps affect my performance. What is most important to me is that I try and live up to my own expectations and perform to my potential. If I can do justice to that I think I would have done a good job. There is this feeling within me of doing well, of performing consistently and if I can achieve these standards then I think things will be all right.
With just one first- class double hundred, does the burden of not having scored a Test 200 weigh heavily on you?
I've tried very hard but somehow it hasn't happened. Maybe I haven't stayed long enough at the crease, maybe my concentration is not there after a stage. I should try and achieve this soon.
But having been successful all the time, does the fear of failure scare you?
No. As I said, I don't think of it. It's better to be positive and concentrate on what needs to be done. That way the pressure is kept to the minimum. Cricket is a game of confidence and if doubts creep in, it affects your game. Against the West Indies, I made three zeroes and it was terrible. I was very concerned, I felt low and depressed actually. When I went in the fourth time I only wanted to score a single and get off the mark. But later my form returned and I was the man of the series. When runs are not coming you must stick to your natural game and maintain your confidence.
That's Sachin on the rare bad day. But are there days, when after one look at the wicket you get the feeling 'This is it, I'll get a hundred'?
At times you get the feeling that runs will come on a nice surface but you still have to go out there and make the runs. The runs don't come on their own, it does not happen easily. The wicket may suit you but it is not so simple.
How do you adjust to a bad track?
It is a great challenge to cope with a track where the ball is doing things, turning a lot or bouncing inconsistently. A batsman must be able to play in these conditions. My game of playing on the rise, and attacking needs a hard surface where the ball comes on nicely like say in Perth, but even on a bad track I'd like to attack and play my normal game, within the demands of the game and the situation. The point is why just wait for the unplayable ball to come. You have to take chances, force the bowler to try something else, keep him on the backfoot. Let him also do some thinking and adjust his bowling; otherwise he stays on top and dictates terms. But specially made wickets for bowlers are not good for the game, the track should be equal for a good contest.
But given a choice when would you like to go in— 2 down for 10 or 170 for 2?
Certainly 10 for 2 because that situation is more challenging. The bowlers are on top and I would try and counter- attack and retrieve the initiative. The other situation means you have remained padded up in the dressing room for long waiting for your turn, the bowling is not too strong, it is an easy situation.
How do you weather tough and tight spells?
You can't do much in these situations except survive and play out those seven or eight overs. The key is survival. You know the bowler will bowl only a certain number of overs before he gets tired. So you decide to do nothing extra and somehow just play out the spell.
In the West Indies in '97, (Curtly) Ambrose was bowling a good spell and I could not read him. I would just go forward in a predetermined manner and defend or let the ball hit my thigh pad. So I told Rahul (Dravid) I was unable to make much of Ambrose. We decided to rotate the strike so that the bowler could not attack one batsmen and he had to adjust all the time, bowl a different line.... In this your body language is important, your bearing can convey everything tothe bowler so you should not show your fear to the bowler.
How do you react when beaten by a bowler?
It is like this— you will get beaten occasionally, the bowler will surprise you with a good ball or the wicket might do something extra. But the important thing is to realise that you have survived, see what has gone wrong but at the same time not let it worry you. What has happened is gone, that ball is over. You must just remark your guard and tackle the next ball, not think too much of what happened earlier.
Pakistan will soon be here. In your mind, do you go through your mistakes in the past against Akram or Waqar Younis?
Yes, definitely. I remember my mistakes, and the idea is not to repeat those mistakes.
Do you actually remember your dismissals?
I remember each and every Test dismissal. I can tell you how I got out in any Test, any innings. I can tell you the bowler, mode of dismissal from my first Test innings onwards. I clearly remember how I get out. Every time.
Every dismissal in 10 years ?
Do you also watch your videos and those of bowlers to pre-pare yourself?
Not always, but I do see some of my innings and learn a lot from that. It is easy to realise what you are doing wrong.
What is your normal schedule before an important game?
I don't have a set schedule. Usually I have a net because it's nice to have the feeling of the ball hitting the middle before you actually go out. It gives confidence and prepares you for the match. Apart from that, I don't have a routine apart from getting good rest the night before so that one feels strong and fresh in the morning.
I also visualise what is likely to happen in the match in a situation and what I should do in those situations. Having been on the circuit for so long, one knows the bowlers, their strengths and their methods. So you prepare according to what you are likely to be up against. Very often I go through this while looking at the wicket.
And on the morning of the match?
Again, nothing special. We are at the ground early, then every-one goes through the routine physical training, stretching and fielding. Once this is over I like to knock for a while, hit a few balls, that's it.
Have you missed a match through injury?
Not Tests, but in New Zealand I had a thigh muscle problem and as the next game was only three days away I missed a one- day game... Sir Don Bradman said that in 20 years he came off the field only once, when his thumb was broken. That is really remarkable.
Do you watch the match once 'play' is called, or do you prefer not to?
Yes, I watch closely to get an idea about what the bowler and wicket are doing. That way you have a better idea of what is happening. But if the wait, till I get in, becomes long— and that happens mostly in Test matches since I open in the one- dayers— I keep moving around, watching now and then. There are some players who prefer not to look at all but it helps me to see how things are from the pavilion itself.
Do you feel nervous?
Of course, everybody is before a match and before going in. It's a good thing because it charges you, gets you more focused and helps in concentration. But the nervousness is there only till you go in; once in the middle I just think about the bowler and the bowling, nothing else. I remember my first Test. There I was in the middle, all of 16 years old, absolutely blank and very nervous, butterflies flying around in formations in my stomach! I really didn't know what was happening. Akram was bowling very fast. I think he bowled four bouncers in a row. It was very tough and I thought I was not going to ever play Test cricket again. At times I was beaten by pace, the ball went past my bat before I had completed my shot. I made 15, then a half- century in the next match. After that Test I don't remember being troubled by pace as such.
Is there a particular kind of bowler who is a problem?
I don't know why, but I hate facing an irregular bowler. It affects my concentration. Otherwise I don't have any difficulty with any kind of bowling.
But at the beginning of an innings do you tell your-self not to cut or pull to cut out risks?
Not really, because I prefer to keep an open mind and play according to the conditions. Sometimes you have to be more careful, otherwise it is best to play your natural game and not complicate things.
Even in one- dayers?
I think of myself as an attacking player who likes to take on the bowlers. While doing this you have to take chances, especially in one-dayers where it is not enough to play according to the merits of the ball. In fact, in one- dayers, very often your success depends on 'not' treating the ball on its merit.
Have you struggled for runs in a Test, against any bowler?
Yes, I remember a Test in South Africa on the previous tour when in a full session till lunch I made just 11 runs in two hours and even in that there was a square cut for 4 off Allan Donald. The South Africans kept bowling outside off stump. I had to leave the ball and there were no scoring opportunities. That must be my slowest stay at the wicket.
Do you count your runs while batting?
I used to earlier. Now I only look at the scoreboard to see how I'm doing.
Against lesser opposition does batting get too easy?
Sometimes you feel on top. Depending on the situation and the wicket, you feel it is possible to hit the bowler where you want and score freely. Maybe in such matches after a while you enjoy yourself. Some time ago, while playing Gujarat, I wanted a good knock, so initially I concentrated hard and played carefully but after a stage I could attack and in the end made 176 in about three hours. Depending on the match and the position your approach is different.
Most batsmen use the normal back and across movement while facing fast bowlers. You don't. Why is that?
That's because I am trying to get on to the front foot at the first opportunity so that I can play through the line and hit on the up. But if the ball is short, then I get into line by moving across the crease or by getting my body behind the ball. If there is a chance then I am ready for the cut. Actually this back and across movement depends on the wicket, its bounce and pace and the kind of bowling. If the bowlers are not really quick, if I am playing against Sri Lanka, then there is no need for that. I prefer to get forward, even in England where the ball is supposed to seam. My game is centred around that.
Have you ever been dismissed first ball?
Twice. First, Danny Morrison got me in New Zealand, caught behind—I was defending, the ball took the outside edge. It was a very good delivery. Then, in '96. Hampshire had a slow left-arm medium pacer (K.D. James) who sort of lobbed the ball. I played forward and off bat/pad the ball went to short leg for a very comfortable catch. He got four of us—Sanjay (Manjrekar), Rahul and Vikram Rathore. In the dressing room we were not even angry, we just sort of laughed at our dismissals.
Your bottom-handed grip is quite unusual, how did you work that out?
I started with that grip right from the beginning. It came naturally to me and I think it suited my style of batting. I like to attack the bowling to dominate and play shots and for that the grip is correct. In cricket there are more shots with the right hand near the bottom of the handle. Initially the coach tried to change this but he too realised that this grip was working for me and he let me play with my natural style. I think from the beginning, my batting, in terms of technique or style, has not changed, except for some adjustments. I have always played the same way.
Is there any shot which you find difficult to play?
Not particularly. But the thing is that I like to attack. So there is always a chance that I will make a mistake and get out. To that extent the bowler does have a fair chance of dismissing me.
On being dismissed are you in a bad mood, wanting to be left alone?
No, I'm all right. Sometimes I get angry but otherwise I'm OK. Some players like to be left alone, they sit and think about what has happened but I have no special habits.
On getting out do you feel at times you have let the team down?
Yes, one is very disappointed and there is the feeling of letting the team down, specially when it's a bad or careless shot. In December '97 in Sharjah I got out at 91 when we needed only 18 to win against England. It was a dreadful shot. I came down the track to Matthew Fleming. As I stepped out I realised the ball wasn't there but even as I tried to check my shot the ball went underneath my bat and I was yorked. It was a bad shot which perhaps cost us the match. Because after I was dismissed, we lost by three runs.
Again, in the World Cup semi-final in Calcutta in 1996, (Sanath) Jayasuriya was bowling into the rough and the ball came and hit my pad. The moment this happened I thought of a leg bye because usually the ball travels after hitting my pad so I started to leave my crease. But somehow the ball just stayed where it was, and by the time I saw it from the corner of my eye it was too late. I ran myself out. I think that was bad judgement on my part.
Are there other bad dismissals that rankle?
In England, I went too far across while playing Devon Malcolm and was bowled leg stump. In Dhaka last January, I was bowled around the legs to Shahid Afridi which was a big mistake. Normally he does not turn the ball, but this particular ball he got very good drift, the ball came in a long way and also turned after landing. Had it been a normal delivery it could even have been wide down the leg side.
Does anyone give you a sound dressing down when you make terrible mistakes?
Yes, people have told me. I also realise my mistakes and accept blame.
Have you deliberately kept a shot on hold to eliminate the risk of getting out?
No. I play all shots and there is no real glaring weakness or mistake in my batting. But there are many things which go wrong from time to time and one tries to correct them.
What flaws do you see yourself in your batting?
There are many, and while you correct one, other mistakes creep in so you have to be alert and keep working things out.
How do you iron out the flaws? Do you talk to others? Or do you sort them out by practising in the net?
I discuss a lot with my brother, Ajit. He is very critical and at the same time gives me very good advice. After he sees me commit a mistake he tells me what I am doing wrong. He understands my game so it is very helpful talking to him and getting his opinion. I also go to other people for advice.
Like who?
I keep going to Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri. I have gone to Kapil 'paaji' and asked him.... Besides, lots of other people come and tell me things on their own. Sometimes they give me tips on batting. 'You should bat like this, like that'. Sometimes about what I'm doing right, what I'm doing wrong.
How do you react?
I listen to them. And there are many times when I find they are saying the right thing.
With all the attention, and with hardly a private moment, do you miss a normal life?
I lead a normal life. I have been used to this for a long time and the way I live is pretty normal. All the attention I get through cricket is a part of my life. I understand that cricket is my life. I work hard, concentrate on my game and try and perform well. I don't have time for anything else, cricket is full time, and anyway this is what I want to do.
But doesn't it involve too much tension?
Yes, it does. Everyone at home gets very tense, my wife (Anjali) does. She is not at the ground but watches on television.
Can you recall exceptional innings or great spells of bowling?
(Javagal) Srinath against the South Africans at Ahmedabad was tremendous. He won us the match on what was supposed to be a spinners' track: he was very accurate and quite unplayable. Anil Kumble has bowled many spells and made India win. I think Vinod Kambli can play amazing shots and has great touch. Before his injury, I remember a drive to midoff off the backfoot. The ball got a bit of the inside edge, but it still went for four to midwicket. He can be very destructive.
You must have received a fair share of bad decisions over the years?
Yes, that happens. In South Africa against Brett Schultz, the ball went off my right thigh but the umpire declared me caught behind. Ravi Shastri, who was the non-striker, threw the bat down. Later the umpire also realised his mistake and apologised to me in the dressing room. On our last tour to England I was again given leg before when, in a one-day match, the ball was so much down the leg side it would have hit the seventh stump. I was really striking the ball well but got a poor decision.
Are umpires too scared to give top players out unless he is more than sure, because his career depends on good reports from superstars like you.
It happens, although I've never given umpires bad reports on such things. But yes, sometimes players get away, umpires can be lenient to big players. In a Duleep Trophy match in Jamshedpur, the match Rashid Patel and the late Raman Lamba had that row, I thought I had Kapil 'paaji' out caught behind. It was a big edge but he shook his head and did not leave, and the umpire wouldn't give him out. I just laughed and said: "Paaji, jao!"
Sledging. Do the rivals give you lip or are they too scared?
It doesn't happen as much as it used to in the early years. In a Ranji match many years ago, Atul Wassan went round the wicket and bowled bouncers. He also had a lot to say as I was close to my century. I just kept quiet, left all the bouncers and waited for my hundred. Then after making it I let him have it.
With bat or the mouth?
How much of a tonic is victory for a team?
It's difficult to describe the joy of victory. It's unbelievable, absolutely fantastic. In Dhaka, I shouted so much I almost lost my voice. A win is just the tonic the team needs, it gives every-one confidence. Even in tight situations, you can tell yourself that whatever the odds, the impossible is possible. In the past, we have lost narrowly several times, we have failed to convert chances and that has been a major disappointment. Had we won close Tests in the West Indies and South Africa, even against Sri Lanka, the story would have been entirely different.
Do you see a bigger role as a bowler in Tests?
I enjoy bowling and it keeps me in the game all the time. I love the challenge of trying to out-think the batsmen—that is why I don't just bowl one type of deliveries. I keep mixing them up to keep the batsmen guessing about what he is going to get from me. It might come to a stage where I would like to bowl more and more. That way, I see a more active role for myself in Tests in coming days. But, it would never come at the cost of my batting.
Cricket has been your life. What if you weren't a cricketer?
I can't imagine myself without cricket. But if I wasn't a cricketer I would surely be in some other sport.
Do you follow other sports?
Yes. Especially tennis. I played some tennis earlier and I like (Boris) Becker and (Pete) Sampras. Soccer also, but I don't understand it. I enjoy watching (Diego) Maradona though.
Which cricketer would you like to watch?
Jonty Rhodes. I enjoy his fielding, he is superb. Also he does it so naturally and gives the impression he is having a great time. Nobody can match his anticipation and speed in the field.
Who else?
I'd prefer to watch attacking cricket, not someone who is just blocking and playing defensively. Someone like, say, Sanath Jayasuriya—he has great power and an ability to dominate and destroy any bowling on a good day.
How do you rate Saqlain and Shane Warne?
Both are extremely good. Saqlain has good variation and nice control. He is not afraid to toss it up. Warne is an attacking bowler looking to take wickets.
What advice would you give youngsters wanting to play like Sachin Tendulkar?
I don't know what to say except that you must play according to your own style. Everyone has a different method, what works for one may not work for others. Also, you must be honest, to yourself in terms of hard work and dedication, and honest to the game. Try sincerely. There is no magic formula for success in cricket—it depends on so many factors like skill, opportunity, destiny.

This change of direction awakens a profoundly intensified focus on FREEDOM. Uranus' pivot at 2° Taurus indicates a new era of inspiration – and sets us free from the bondage of over-thinking. When a planet is at a standstill while changing direction, it has the greatest impact on us, so the change of direction on Eclipse Day – and just hours before the Stellium in Capricorn – is big cosmic news. Uranus is the Awakener. So this station into forward momentum will clearly point out what is holding you back – with the aid of 20/20 vision. You are being recalibrated internally to liberate yourself from fear. It can feel like a Spring Cleaning at Soul Level. So, be very proactive in embracing changes. You are now transcending all pent-up frustration, stagnation and doubt. This is a multi-dimensional shift. You may feel more restless as you discover how to put the new ideas, revelations and awakenings into a coherent reframe. Uranus wants you to shift the significance of thinking to INSPIRATION. The fire of INSPRIATION lives in Uranus. It reminds you that your existence is a miracle – and that miracles never cease.

Surely with all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals circulating, you've already found your next set of headphones? If not, then why not check out the Sennheiser HD 4.50 SE Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones.
The Sennheiser HD 4.50 are a popular pair of headphones and on offer here is a special edition version. The special edition reference largely relates to the color so if you like the color shown, then this deal will be ideal for you.
With noise-cancelling on board, users can expect a more personal listening experience thanks to the ability to reduce the level of outside noise.
These are wireless headphones and therefore the battery life is something you will want to take into consideration. Officially, Sennheiser states these headphones offer up to 19 hours of usage per charge cycle.
Importantly, that figure is including the use of Bluetooth and the noise-cancellation so that should be the lowest usage return you should expect.
Of course, this is Sennheiser and that also means you can expect the company's signature sound quality to be provided, resulting in a balanced sound overall.
At their full price, these are a good set of headphones. At their new sale price, these are great headphones.
Here's the deal
The Sennheiser HD 4.50 SE wireless noise cancelling headphones are currently available to buy for just $79.95 from Amazon.
Originally, these headphones came with a $199 price tag attached. Needless to say, this is a massive saving compared to their retail price.
While these headphones have dropped in price multiple times since launch, this appears to be one of the lowest prices Amazon has sold them at – if not the lowest.
Amazon's pricing in particular is relevant here as these are an Amazon exclusive version of the headphones. While you will find other versions of the same headphones on sale elsewhere, it won't be this exact pair.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Misogyny' tag.
Want to learn more? Witness more male transactivist progressive action that, quelle suprise, targets women. While attending a meeting to discuss legislation that will effect females, Rebecca Lush speaks to her experience with 'progressive transactivism' quoted from the Morning Star:
" I had also seen footage of aggressive, masked trans activists blocking a stairwell to a separate meeting in Bristol organised by a different campaign group called We Need to Talk the week before the WPUK Oxford meeting.
I was aware that the venues that host these kinds of meetings are each time subjected to a barrage of harassment and misinformation, misrepresenting WPUK as a "hate group," which is designed to scare them into cancelling.
However I was determined that I would not be intimidated from attending a public meeting by bullies in balaclavas. […]
We arrived late and thankfully most people were already inside the venue. Suddenly a group of approximately 50 students descended and immediately blocked the door to the meeting house to deter anyone from entering. They started chanting very loudly and aggressively. What happened next was utterly shameful. […]
The very few [demonstrators] who actually talked to me demonstrated quite clearly that they had absolutely no idea what the meeting was about or what the aims of WPUK are.
Not one could tell me just one of its five demands, for instance, which are clearly available in WPUK publicity material.
One said: "You think trans people don't exist." When I pointed to my two trans friends who'd attended the meeting and begged to differ, she went back to the cult-like chanting in my face. There was little critical thinking on display, just an unnerving groupthink, coupled with a chilling sense of misplaced righteousness.
I found it very sad that a group of young people would attempt to block a meeting without actually bothering to find out anything about the group they were protesting about, apart from what they'd been told.
My overall impression was that it all seemed extremely cult-like and not at all thoughtful. No-platforming tactics, reserved for preventing violent, street-level fascist organising, clearly have no place in preventing women from trade unions and Mumsnet meeting to discuss legislative proposals and women's existing legal rights.
However, the violent and intolerant extremist trans activism we are witnessing isn't a progressive movement, but bears all the hallmarks of an authoritarian cult where people are not allowed to think for themselves or have their ideas challenged.
Women's rights have been hard-won over centuries, yet we are still nowhere close to equality, with sexism and misogyny rife, including on the left. Women have every right to meet and discuss how to challenge sexism and uphold our few hard-won rights.
WPUK works with trans people who wish to see legislation that protects both the rights of trans people and women's sex-based rights. Violence, threats and intimidation have no place in democratic and progressive movements and we will not be deterred from speaking out."
It is nice to see a publication that actually stands for females and socialist principles.
Wow. Do any of you remember the first Indiana Jones film? Raiders of the Lost Ark? Remember the beginning the tense action sequence when Indy switches the statue for a holy satchel of sand and then all hell breaks loose, Indy has to run for his life, avoiding darts, boulders, and irate local inhabitants. It was a tense and glorious romp.
What we are about to partake in, isn't like that at all.
Imagine if you will, that very Indy-esque moment happening here in the blogosphere, but instead of a golden statue, a freshly polished intellectual turd, a veritable extruded husk of bullshit argumentation. And the satchel, instead, a thread bare mouldy hassock filled with a funky-spunky hash of whingy-cringy manspination. The switch is made, the anticipation rises… then falls limp in its sublimely uninteresting putrescence. There is no heroic dash to safety, no hairsbreadth escape, only the grim realization that there is no where to go, but down.
This article is from a genuine RED PILL FATHER (see also Reactionary Pile of Fuckery). He has taken the path of seeing feminism, as only a man can see it, and since it is how a man sees it, it MUST BE true. What is fascinating is the asymptotic nature (he comes close to having a clue on at least one occasion) of his knowledge of feminism being put on display – this RPF, has read things… things on the internet no less, that describe what feminism is, but evidently information written by people who know sweet fuck all about what feminism is.
Let us begin.
"As a Red Pill Father, one of my main goals in life, beyond making my life, and as a consequence of that, my marriage better, is ensuring that I prevent, to the best of my ability, the tainting of my young daughter's minds with modern day Feminism."
Because a base level of narcissism is required to be a douche, thus I will make it a requirement, perhaps even to the level of necessary 'background douche-radiation' (see male socialization), for 'being successful at life'. And apparently allowing your daughter access to the philosophy/praxis that seeks to ground her humanity into the fabric of society is a compete and utter non-starter. Sorry hunny, no human being status for you.
"This is part one of a three part series of posts I'll do depicting how Feminism is lying to both men and women"
It's kinda creepy, yet edifying to see RPF mistakenly categorize feminism as monolithic singular totality. One might surmise that RPF is a fan of morally simplistic binary thinking and all of the sound and fury that emanates from such etymologically denuded intellectual black holes. Because fuck nuance and attention to detail; it makes wrapping the tinfoil around one's head so much more difficult.
" and how fathers today can combat it so their sons and daughters don't end up buying into the modern Feminist lie at their own expense."
Ah, RPF is a tinfoil wrapped holy crusader of man-justice, ready to dispense wisdom and shield his
property children from the great evil feminist satan.
"Classical vs Modern Feminism
Not everyone will agree with me on this but Feminism, in it's earliest iterations (I'm talking late 1800s suffragists), started out as a movement with honorable intentions, back when actual inequality of opportunity between the sexes existed."
"However, […]"
"However, even with that goal, the feminist narrative of equal rights and suffrage was tainted as it didn't come with "equal responsibility" for women. For example, women were not subject to the military draft, even to this day, but were granted the right to vote. It wasn't until the promise was made that women wouldn't be drafted that more women got on board with the suffrage movement."
"So from the start, even though the intentions were good, the stated intention of true "equality" is a lie."
"They wanted all of the authority given to men with none of the responsibilities, and they got it."
"And it's this quite unequal dynamic that persists into today and is causing the feminists to want more and more authority for less responsibility. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile."
"I believe that women's suffrage can coexist with women who vote in the best interests of our culture and society, but those interests have to be informed and framed by the masculine and with the requisite amount of actual authority given to those who carry the lion's share of responsibility."
"Just as you will be the best father for your children by fulfilling your role as a masculine role model and wielding your authority for the good of your family."
"It wasn't the female vote that got us here today, it was the continued onslaught of overzealous Feminism in its false crusade for the elusive, and already achieved, "equality" sans the commensurate responsibility for women that got us here."
- Equal pay for the "same" work.
- Right to vote,
- Pursuit of happiness and liberty.
VS Modern
- [1] Women are to be celebrated and advantaged above all else, at the expense of men.
- [2] These expectations reign even over the right of an unborn child to live.
- [3] Believe all women all the time without verifying. What happened to Trust but Verify?"
Wow. So much bullshit condensed down into handy bullet points.
- Examples? Because women now dominate every facet of society. Women in key political office, captains of industry, they are everywhere. In fact they are the defacto status quo – all of literature is about women and their achievements. Pop culture is chock full of positive female role models that demonstrate talent and ability and determined effort are all societal sanctioned keys to female success (nay dominance, to believe RPF's hokum).
- What? You mean women have a right to say what goes on in their own bodies and determine their productive futures as they see fit – like real human beings with rights and everything? You have no idea what pregnancy does to the female body, if you did, you'd stop saying fatuous bullshit like this.
- The fuck? What does this even mean? Women's inferior status in society comes with a bevy of problems when accessing the political and legal systems within our society. Women are still fighting to be heard and working toward reducing the bias against them for reporting the sexual violence against them, because shockingly in a patriarchy, women are not encouraged to hold men accountable for their shitty behaviour.
"Feminism originally started out to correct actual injustices in society but has gone so far that it is now making both men and women miserable."
Feminism has always been antagonistic toward male power and privilege, this fact makes you sad.
"Feminism today is not about equality, it's about disempowering and emasculating men."
As stated earlier, (effective) Feminism is about the liberation of women from the structures of society that oppress them. So, if by correcting male excess in society is 'emasculating'; so be it.
"Children are very sensitive to what is "fair." Whether it's the size of the piece of cake they get compared to their friends, how much time they or their siblings get to play with Daddy. They know and they keep score. One day this past year my young daughter became aware of "International Girls Day." She asked what it's about and her very next question was, "Is there a Boy's Day?" Young minds, untainted by the Feminist supremacy agenda, can detect inequality."
Probably the same reason there isn't a white history month you slack-jawed oxygen thief.
"Take advantage of that now. Reinforce this. Feminists of today would say, "Who cares about Boys Day… they've had their turn.""
Well that and every other day happens to be 'boys day'. Funny how that works when you happen to be in the class that is accorded personhood by default.
"Which is the other side is the "It's HER turn" coin. It's just reverse sexism or "Also Sexism." Not a child. A child knows better and so do Red Pill aware men."
Reverse sexism. Wow, those slaves sure could oppress their masters couldn't they. Just like the people of colour regularly practice reverse racism against white people. *sigh*. Trying to make the playing field even when it intrinsically isn't is the second play in the ('oppressed') white dude play book. Minorities can most certainly discriminate, but their prejudices are not reinforced and normalized by the rest of society. Apples and oranges my dear whingy faux-oppressed RPF.
"I'll take Tolpin's point a step farther and assert that Feminism, in it's modern form, not only tells women they don't need men but continues to assure that men are made into ATM-Betas through the family court system."
The court system remains in favour of men. I know the notion that being responsible for children is tough (kinda funny that you state earlier your anti-abortion 'ethic', and yet here are decidedly anti-family-responsibility) and quite unpalatable for RPF like yourself.
"Our femcentric culture ensures that women still have full access to the resources and money that men possess, even if men choose not to play by their rules. So of course women don't need men nowadays, the State has ensured, through the establishment of Feminist legislation, they get that support either way."
I'd like to know when it because femcentric culture, because I think that it doesn't exist outside RPF's fevered dreams. Do note his keen yearings for the golden age where women had no rights and their survival depended upon the largess of men.
The notion that women share the same status as men must be truly horrifying to RPF. You mean women are not merely objects to be possessed and collected – the hatred of women must be intense to conjure up this opposite world fantasy the RPF spouts. I don't see any other reason for it.
"I truly believe, and the social evidence supports this*, that Feminism is not only detrimental to men, it's disparaging to family, marriage and is even doing women a disservice."
*Citation needed
Also, how would full human being status for females damage society? The only artifact that looks threatened with female liberation is patriarchy.
"The lie has hurt many women who prioritized "moving up the corporate ladder," while putting off having a family until they're 40 only to find that at that age, attracting a quality man is difficult and their prospects for conceiving a baby naturally are severely diminished. "
Because baby making is the ultimate expression of female achievement. Fuck off with your misogynistic, antediluvian attitudes dude.
"This is not the future I want for my daughters."
The mindfuck you are subjecting them to is darkening their future as you speak.
Thanks folks, and thanks(?) to the manosphere for providing such a bountiful harvest of stupidity.
Good to see that Twitter has its shit in order… (aka the War on Women Continues)
Yep. Another casuality that can be directly attributed to transactivism (also Patriarchy 2.0). This is what happens when women won't go along with male delusion and commit the blasphemous crime of speaking in a particular way: with facts that are congruent with observable, material, reality. I hope Vonny and Glosswitch return to twitter, we are in such desperate need of strong female leadership against this latest incarnation of patriarchy.
I keep waiting to hear all the amazing goodness that is coming from this 'gender revolution' yet you look at it and it the same misogyny as the old misogyny, and would you look at that, even the gender-crew realizes that being male is the only way to personhood in our society and its not something you can 'identify' in or out of. Almost like an admission that biological sex is real (funny that statement should be contentious) and despite any grand delusions of gender, is what the world actually fucking runs on.
The New York Times has featured Lindy West writing on the free speech conundrum on how entitled white dudes are getting their knickers in a knot because minorities and non white dudes dare to criticize features of society that make dudes happy.
See the flaming mound of poo that is "Gamer Gate" or any forum in which a feminist view/critique of society is presented. Good times. Today's lesson is that criticism is not anti-free speech and conflating the two ideas because your pet notions don't stand up to analysis is toddler level defence of your position.
Yeah. So trans community what is the plan to deal members who choose to behave like this? I'm curious because this particular sub-set seems to be defining what trans-activism is all about and illustrating quite succinctly the threat it poses to women.

Hot Clicks: Laura Leigh leads the top Hot Clicks of 2009
Get all previous editions of Hot Clicks here. Follow Jimmy Traina on Twitter here. Join the Hot Clicks Facebook group here. E-mail a comment, question or link here.
There has been a lot of looking back over the past few weeks. The end of the decade and the end of 2009 has turned the Internet into one big list orgy. But Joe Sports Fan put a different spin on things by looking back at its top columns over the past year (many of which had been linked in Hot Clicks). This made me wonder which edition of Hot Clicks generated the most page views in 2009. After doing the research, I discovered that Laura Leigh, who appeared at the top of Hot Clicks on Jan. 29 and Jan. 30, held down the top two spots. (For those who don't remember -- and I'm sure you don't -- Leigh appeared on some ABC reality show.) Rounding out the top 10 were 3. Erin Andrews, 4. Florida cheerleader Britany Raymond, 5. Cowboys cheerleader Abigail Klein, 6. Lucy Pinder, 7. WWE Diva Maryse, 8. Adriana Lima, 9. Minka Kelly, 10. Torrie Wilson. BONUS: No. 11 was the day Chris Cooley took over Hot Clicks and featured his wife, Christy.

A couple of weeks ago, I appeared on the aforementioned Joe Sports Fan podcast (it's worth clicking that link just for the photo). One question they asked me was: "You win a bet with a friend in which the payoff is forcing him or her to wear the single most embarrassing real-life jersey that you can think of to the game of your choice. What jersey and what game are you going with?" I answered an O.J. Simpson jersey at any game. Well, check out this shot.

singing venues: Suffolk and Essex
Sing Out Saturdays run regular monthly sessions and one-off singing days in Suffolk and Essex.
Monthly sessions are held in Hadleigh and Wivenhoe. Each session costs £9 (includes tea, biscuits, coffee).
Ansell Centre, Hadleigh
10.30am – 1pm
Market Place
Hadleigh IP7 5DL
Market Place leads off the south end of the High Street opposite the White Lion Hotel. Hadleigh United Reformed Church/ Ansell Centre is on the left. There is free parking in the High Street Car park (52 spaces) which is accessible from Magdalen Road as well as a smaller (21 spaces) free car park at the end of Market Place past the Ansell Centre.
There is a small water barrier lip about 1cm high at the main entrance, but wheelchairs and mobility scooters negotiate it with no problem. Both doors at the front open and the inner doors are wider with a small extra door to the left of the main door that makes the opening as wide as the front doors. There is a dedicated disabled loo in the building.
Scout Hall, Wivenhoe
2pm – 4.30pm
High Street
Wivenhoe CO7 9AB
Just off the High Street, entrance runs along the side of the Royal Mail building. Parking at the Scout Hall is limited, but there is a free car park further down the High Street on the right (entrance via Clifton Terrace). There is also on-road parking on the High Street, but it's often very full.
The hall is disabled-friendly, with a ramp and a disabled toilet. Only one of the doors open at the entrance, but there is a fire door at the back of the Munson Room. One of the Scout leaders has to use a wheelchair, and uses the front entrance with no problem.

Toyota Venza 2020 Model
Because of this, at least at first, the Toyota Venza 2020 Model will likely be offered with a 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine. The itemizing doesn't specifically verify that it's an EcoBoost mill, however that is very probably on condition that the Bronco may have the same underpinnings because the Ranger truck.
A fast take a look at Ford's present vehicle lineup is enough to notice that the model's model do numerous sharing. This means that the Toyota Venza 2020 Model will function the very same engine because the Ranger. This specific 2.Three-liter EcoBoost mill cranks out 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. That's removed from massive, but it surely's not dangerous either given the size of the SUV. And that torque determine is definitely spectacular.
The mill encompasses a twin-scroll turbocharger that extracts exhaust fuel from two pairs of cylinders in alternating sequence as a way to improve pulse power and cut back lag. It also options an Auto Start-Stop operate that shuts off the engine when the car involves a stop and restarts it immediately when the brake is launched. This characteristic improves fuel economy. The Ranger is rated at 21 mpg city, 26 mpg freeway, and 26 mpg combined, figures that shouldn't change much for the Bronco.
Toyota Venza 2020 Model pairs the two.Three-liter EcoBoost to a 10-speed automated transmission within the Ranger, and this unit should carry over to the Bronco. A brand new design, the SelectShift gearbox features optimized gear progressions for easy shifting.
Toyota Venza 2020 Model is about to take the pickup world by storm with an all-electric truck that will most certainly be revealed this year. The automobile that's set to be proven this year received't be the final production-spec mannequin, though, as we've come to count on from Toyota Venza 2020 Model, however will probably be a really shut preview of that model.
Toyota Venza 2020 Model All fashions of the Tesla Pickup will probably feature a dual-motor setup and therefore be all-wheel drive. For the reason that battery pack will be built-in into the ground of the truck, it'll have a really low heart of gravity for a automobile of its sort. So, it would in all probability be fairly stable and great for off-road hooning the place it can really feel steady and never liable to tipping over (like some standard vehicles are inclined to feel when pushed to make onerous turns).
Toyota Venza 2020 Model It might very well be that Tesla is designing this pickup in order that it can taxi heavy spacecraft around runways, to and from the launch pad. We're sure there's a catch to that ridiculous 300,000-pound claim, but both wither approach, the pickup could have a greater towing score than all other standard pickups – possibly that is what Elon was making an attempt to counsel.
Attempting to make a tall, heavy pickup truck handle like one of the most iconic sports activities cars in the world appears proper on not possible. Maybe between its large power and torque figures and the aforementioned active suspension whose job might not only be to adjust the trip top primarily based on load, but in addition help the truck nook flat, it will likely be the perfect dealing with truck ever made; beating a Porsche around corners looks like a far much less possible scenario, although.
Toyota Venza 2020 Model Relating to the look of the Tesla pickup, we've very little to go on by way of speculating what it would seem like. The automaker not too long ago released a teaser displaying a lightweight bar that runs the width of the automobile, however we don't know if it exhibits the front or the rear of the automobile (identical to the Rivian R1T pickup). If it's the rear, then the bed has a lid that fully closes it off and turns it into a trunk. If it's the front, then the truck will have a single LED strip catering for all front end illumination wants Toyota Venza 2020 Model.
