A a€?mediocrea€? training camp, as Carlyle put it earlier this week, has Frattin lingering nervously on the bubble at the end of the exhibition season, pushed out of a likely job by Brandon Kozun, the small, but feisty winger determined to make the NHL for the first time. Udonis Haslem Jersey . Speaking on TSN Radio 1050s TSN Drive with Dave Naylor on Monday, Colangelo said he had no intention of tanking the shortened 2011-12 season, but definitely wanted a high pick in the draft.

So high that you may even get nauseous looking at some of his work.Why does he do it? "I started doing it because I like the views," Oreshkin said. "I like photographing the city and the people I get to spend time with." Sounds like a good enough reason, we guess. The people he spends time climbing with are no less insane than Kirill. As yyou can see in this picture.ddddddddddddHeres a video about Kirill and his exploits. It includes facts like sometimes he likes to just hang off the buildings by only his fingers and all his stunts are done unsupervised and without any safety gear.Enjoy it, watch it, but dont try this at home or any building for that matter.
