With the MLB All Star Game home run derby at Yankee Stadium coming up i thought this would be a good time to look back at a real home run derby.   Mickey Mantle Vs. Willie Mays (1959)   Part 1   Part 2   Sorry that the ending isnt shown but Mantle went nuts at the end and won.

Take a look at their site to decide which of their numerous options is best for you and your home, then give them a call and get them working on the latest addition to your home. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.And one thing I found very interesting is should you spell it mantle or mantel? They even had the answer!When you're looking to remodel a fireplace, the only place you should look is Age

We had some great discussion about closers at Mantle's with Lenny Melnick, Paul Greco and Adam Ronis from Newsday.com. Yes, that is me in the Yankee Jersey. Before I go get killed at work this week I wanted to get up a post summarizing my appearance on the Live From Mickey Mantle's show on Friday. It was a great show with some fantastic guests. I had the unenviable task of following Mike Easler

Since today's game has been rained out, how about watching this classic episode of Home Run Derby.Remember Home Run Derby? It was a television show from the late-50's that pitting the top sluggers of Major League Baseball against each other in 9-inning home run contests. It was held at Wrigley Field in Los Angeles. The show was produced and hosted by actor and Hollywood Stars broadcaster Mark Scott.The winner would receive $2,000 and was invited back next week to go up against a new opponent, and the loser received $1,000. If a batter hit three home runs in a row, he would receive a $500 bonus. A fourth home run in a row would be worth another $500 bonus. Any consecutive home runs hit beyond that would each be worth $1,000.I used to love this show as a kid, I always would watch the reruns

Experimental/Post Metal-USA "The essence of AGALLOCH’s music is a combination of cold, dark sorrow and natural aesthetic beauty. The foundation of the band began in late 1995 when a doom/death project called AEOLACHRYMAE was reduced to a pile of ash. From those ashes, three bands were born - SUSURRUS INANIS, NOTHING and AGALLOCH. The primary goal in the beginning was to create majestic and epic

Katharine Sanderson writes: The arrangement of electrons in iron-containing minerals deep within Earth influences how those minerals behave, according to new lab results. That could affect our understanding of the composition of rocks deep underground, researchers say. Jung-Fu Lin at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, California, and his colleagues took some iron-containing minerals known as ferropericlases and subjected them to the brutal high temperatures and pressures of the lower mantle — the layer of the inner Earth lying just above the core, in some places more than 2,000 kilometres beneath the surface. By studying these minerals in minute detail, the team watched the electronic properties of single atoms change as they are squeezed and heated. This affects large-scale properties of the minerals, such as how fast sound travels through the rock. Studies of how sound waves travel through the deepest layers of Earth are used to help infer what kind of rock is down there,
