I don't believe it!
Ryan Lambert
February 10 2009 10:27AM
Well that was unexpected.
I mean, I've seen the Habs a few times in this little skid of theirs, and I've seen every one of the Flames' hideous losses since the beginning of the month. I figured this would be one of those 6-5 games that ends on an unbelievable own-zone turnover that most junior players don't make.
Glad I was wrong.
After a poor first period, Calgary came out guns blazing in the second, scored a pair of shorthanded goals and put the game away emphatically. It was very nice to see, and was not un-reminiscent of their larger successes earlier this season. Solid performances pretty much all around. It's certainly something to which a fellow such as myself could become accustomed.
But at the same time, it's important, I think, to keep in mind that I'm pumped over a strong win over a very weak team that can't buy a win. Imagine being excited that the Flames beat the Canucks or something. Mortifying is what that is.
But hey, FlamesNation has its first win ever. You can't blame us for poor play any more.
The Good
- The final 40 minutes might be the best 40 Calgary has played all season. The Flames outshot the Canadiens 28-15 in the final two periods and outscored them 5-0. That's pretty much the way to win every game. And that second period especially was, to quote Kent from last night's comment section, a "statement period."
- The penalty kill was brilliant, obviously. Despite taking a bunch of penalties, the Flames only gave up four power plays, and outscored the Habs on them 2-0. Any time you get one shorthanded goal, you're putting your team in good position (I wonder how many teams have scored a shorty and lost this year), but when you get two, that's lights-out.
- Miikka Kiprusoff had another solid effort, making 22 saves on 24 shots, and one of the goals he conceded was entirely not his fault. (More on that in a second)
- Mike Cammalleri continued his hot streak, scoring a goal and adding an assist. Rene Bourque had an identical scoring line.
- Breakout game for Matt Lombardi? A goal and two assists is a good night for anyone, but Lombardi's been struggling to do anything well for an entire game all season. He was a force last night and finished plus-4.
The Bad
- Jarome Iginla continues to be invisible. He had four shots on goal and was a minus-2.
- Todd Bertuzzi also sucked once again. Minus-2 as well, and one shot on goal.
The Ugly
- Dion Phaneuf's atrocious odd-man coverage directly led to the second Montreal goal. Granted he also scored in the game, but that was embarrassing. Memo to Dion: When you're caught on a 2-on-1, it's a pretty good idea to take away the pass instead of attempting to play the body. You left your goaltender dead to rights. He had ZERO chance of stopping that shot.
February 10 2009, 10:38AM
as you might know (and if you don't know, you probably don't have a pulse), i'm a bit of a gio fan. the play that led to the odd-man rush was a beautiful pinch by #5 that very nearly led to a goal, but the play turned back up ice and, yeah, dion absolutely messed it up. later on the fan960, rob kerr claimed that gio's "job" was to cover dion defensively, and not the other way around, which made me want to throw things.
poor gio never gets a pat on the back... i think the kid is playing some effin' good hockey...
The Pardy/Sarich pairing looked solid as well. I hope Keena keeps that duo together going forward.
Also, love the pic. If there's one thing it demonstrates, it's that we should all glory in the victories over our enemies. Right in front of them. And Especially children.
I hope Lombo can play a few more games like that between now and the trade deadline.

That goalie is all kinds of terrible. Look at his face.

Comments: These are good quality pants. I have had them for over a year and they still don't have any holes or rips. The sizing runs a little big, but its not that bad.
From: ??
Comments: I will say that they are bigger than most other pants so if you are looking to get a size large and you are around 33-34," I would go with a medium. As for the pants, I couldn't ask for a better pair. Great look and great feel. Definitely have great mobility in these pants and very durable.
From: Jake at IW Hockey
Comments: I bought the large based on waist size. These things are HUGE! Way too big. The adjustment straps at the top must be cinched to the fullest extent possible. The legs are very large, so much so that the velcro at the bottom of the leg can't keep the excess material at the bottom of the leg from sagging down ... it's a mess. But, the construction and fabric is quality. The sizing sucks
From: Nog
Comments: Nice quality so far. LOVE the subtle design, but most important part is the fitting; just right and not baggy.
From: Mateo
Comments: These are awesome! Seemingly well made. Fit great, feel great, look great.
From: BK Atlanta Georgia
Comments: These pants are worth the money. The velcro bottom straps and design of the panels, etc. are perfect compared to my old mission pants from a few years back. The not over the top black color with white lettering looks great relative to some of the other brands out there.
From: ???
Comments: Best pant on the market! Tough in just the right places. Air flow in all the right places. Velcro system eliminates need for tape. Waist closure is simple. Just a great pant. I play defense, so I want a tough pant that won't weigh me down. These are very light, and tough in the right spots. My only concern is the velcro bottom may wear/tear if open and closed alot. I just don't undo it once I find the right amount of tightness.

In 1999, the COPS Office funded the Reno (Nevada) Police Department and the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) to develop an alternative national model for field training that would incorporate community policing and problem solving principles. The result of their collaboration is a new training program called the Police Training Officer (PTO) Program. It incorporates contemporary methods of adult education and a version of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method of teaching adapted for police. Most importantly, it serves to ensure that academy graduates' first experience as law enforcement officers is one that reflects policing in the 21st century.
The PTO program is the first new post-academy field-training program for law enforcement agencies in more than 30 years. Its original design makes it one of the strongest training innovations in decades. This new approach to training is the foundation for life-long learning that prepares new officers for the complexities of policing today and in the future.
The program can be tailored to each agency's unique needs. Its flexibility
allows future changes in policing to be easily incorporated. An important
long-term benefit to the agency is the further institutionalization of community
policing and problem solving. First tested in the Reno Police Department and
subsequently tested by five other agencies, the PTO program has produced
outstanding results. New officers enter the field with problem-solving skills
that are rarely seen at that career level. New officers also display remarkable
leadership and willingness to work as partners with the local community to fight
crime and disorder problems. The PTO program is producing officers who have the
necessary knowledge, skills, and attitude for today's law enforcement
Currently, agencies can use the PTO Program outlines to develop their own in-house programs adapted to their particular training needs. And in 2005, the PTO Program will be available through local RCPIs.
The resources that support the implementation of this program include:

Mike Brown starts at full-back and will make his 200th appearance for Harlequins in their Heineken Cup clash against Biarritz.
Mike Brown starts at full-back and will make his 200th appearance for Harlequins in their Heineken Cup clash against Biarritz.
Jordan Turner-Hall and George Lowe also renew their centre partnership in midfield.
Among the forwards, there is one change as Tom Guest starts at number eight and is joined in the back-row with Maurie Fa'asavalu and captain, Chris Robshaw.
Luke Wallace is named among the replacements, while Ollie Lindsay-Hague will look to make his first appearance in the Heineken Cup.
The reigning English champions are the number one ranked side in the quarter-finals shakedown at the moment but a victory over the Top 14 side at the imposing Parc des Sports Aguilera would send a real message out to the rest of Europe and could ensure a meeting with the lowest ranked side in April.
Meanwhile, Taku Ngwenya returns to the Biarritz starting line-up on the right wing with Iain Balshaw reverting to full-back.
Former London Wasps prop Ben Broster starts at tighthead with Fabien Barcella on the opposite side of the scrum, with Imanol Harinodorquy returning at number eight and Raphael Lakafia moving to openside flanker.
Qualification is a long shot for the French side, who were Heineken Cup finalists in 2006 and 2010, and they simply have to beat 'Quins to come into the reckoning as qualifiers for the Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-finals.
They will also be looking for revenge for their 40-13 defeat to Harlequins in the Pool opener at the Stoop back in October.
The Frenchmen have been defeated only once at Stade Aguilera in the Heineken Cup since 2001 – 6-10 to Cardiff Blues on 13 December 2008.
The teams:
Biarritz: 15 Iain Balshaw, 14 Taku Ngwenya, 13 Benoît Baby, 12 Damien Traille, 11 Aled Brew, 10 Jean-Pascal Barraque, 9 Dimitri Yachvili, 8 Imanol Harinordoquy, 7 Raphael Lakafia, 6 Wenceslas Lauret, 5 Pelu Taele, 4 Thibault Dubarry, 3 Ben Broster, 2 Arnaud Heguy, 1 Fabien Barcella.
Replacements: 16 Jean-Philippe Genevois, 17 Thomas Synaeghel, 18 Eugène Van Staden, 19 Erik Lund, 20 Talalelei Gray, 21 Yann Lesgourgues, 22 Julien Peyrelongue, 23 Seremaïa Burotu.
Harlequins: 15 Mike Brown, 14 Tom Williams, 13 George Lowe, 12 Jordan Turner-Hall, 11 Ugo Monye, 10 Nick Evans, 9 Danny Care, 8 Tom Guest, 7 Chris Robshaw (c), 6 Maurie Fa'asavalu, 5 George Robson, 4 Olly Kohn, 3 James Johnston, 2 Joe Gray, 1 Joe Marler.
Replacements: 16 Rob Buchanan, 17 Mark Lambert, 18 Will Collier, 19 Charlie Matthews, 20 Luke Wallace, 21 Karl Dickson, 22 Ben Botica, 23 Ollie Lindsay-Hague.
Date: Friday, January 18
Venue: Stade Aguiléra
Kick-off: 21:00 (20:00 GMT)
Referee: John Lacey (Ireland)
Assistant referees: Paul Haycock (Ireland), Michael Black (Ireland)
Television match official: Seamus Flannery (Ireland)

Model Katie Fogarty embodies a college girl's preppy-chic, sans-hangover & frat house boyfriend in Elle Russia's April 2011 issue. The ultra cool denim separates come direct from the likes of Isabel Marant, Tommy Hilfiger, and Paul & Joe. We love the red graffiti inspired denim paired with the navy blue oversized pullover (would we wear it? Yes.) and the chambray shirt donned with the lettermen jacket. The denim shorts, one styled with lace up oxford booties and tube socks, the other with a striped navy and white leather belt, with a two toned yellow and white shirt, gives shining new potential to the nerdy bookworm's summer digs. Forgarty's tousled side swept curls, pull together this preppy look, leaving us wondering whether we should crack a book or two this afternoon!

Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
Am i the only one that felt a little disappointed with how this chapter/story panned out in the end? I think it was almost kinda expected, though it does say something about zaraki's true power if he could whip unohana as a child. Doubt we will see her die though given that we haven't even seen her true zampaktou's abilities.
And anyone else notice that the dude talking to her looks a hell lot like Renji??? Maybe thats the reason why she healed him during the SS arc after his fight with byakuya as some sort of debt to this person.
Aizen would have to have known about Zaraki weakening himself as well, because of the whole "making sure Ichigo fights the right opponent at the right time" bullshit.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
What happened with teaching the art of killing and shit when Unohana ain't teaching nothing. She's just helping Zaraki how to return to his old self.
sig made by me
So kenpachi was originally stronger than unohana when he was a kid(Does any character remind me of young zaraki, he kinda looks similar to hisagi mixed with natsu dragneel(FT)....What the hell is zaraki anyway? how is he this strong? is kinda like asking what the hell is aizen... why is aizen so strong?... there complete past are vague.....
I guess its part of zaraki's ability... and the novel spirits are forever with you about zaraki's strength adjusting to the enemy is as canon as the keyboard i'm using to type this words, he unconsciously lowered and subjugated his power-level because of the only "enemy" he ever knew who he felt joy, fear and ecstacy in fighting at the end was weaker than him, in other words he adapted to unohana's powerlevel unconsciously.... unohana taught of this as her sin her weakness its almost entirely the same as what the novel says about his power......
Good that Zaraki isn't immortal as some of us assume and kudos to the people who said that it was unohana who immediately cures him after getting killed or almost getting killed.... plus how long have they been fighting?... unohana mentioned that she was killing zaraki hundreds to a thousand times before zaraki actually has the ability to hit her with that slash....Finally i don't think unohana is done for.... she barely used her shikai and her bankai..... next chapter probably would see more on the progress of this fight.... probably unohana getting more serious and teaching zaraki to learn how to communicate with his zanpaktou as he has already lost interest in it long ago

Really loved this chapter, best one in a while. But I'm afraid...that last panel looks a lot like when Yamamoto got slashed by Bach. Don't die Unohana don'tdiedon'tdie!!! I won't forgive you Kubo, that would be worse than when Kagura died in Inuyasha. You could have killed off Hitsugaya and Byakuya, or at least Byakuya, and left more place for Unohana. She's a much more interesting character.
Ichigo = everything in bleach, special in everyway, would probably end up as the vessel of the spirit king, so no need for an explanations
Aizen = Very powerful, talented, brilliant, skilled however you like it shinigami, was already in another level even amongst captain levels when he was still VC or maybe even before that since we do not have enough back ground of him
Kenpachi = as a little shorty/gradeschool kid.... is stronger than one of the strongest swordsman if not the strongest pure shinigami in history(still i see yamamoto in a higher level in bankai vs unohana).... alarms yamamoto, freaks out central 46, who knows how strong he is if he ever remembered or will know his zanpaktous name or has bankai
No wonder Bach wanted them as his special war potentials.... it makes me think who are the other 2.... and i highly doubt that its halibel.... halibel doesn't have the resumes of this 3 or can even hold a candle along side the 3
Well this explains the Kenpatchi vs Ichigo Fight.
Still this reminds me of Vageta using Dende to get stronger.
Kenpatchi being that strong as a kid is ridiculous though, and does Unohana not aging mean Kenpatchi's are really immortal?

Honestly that was kind of silly lol. Kenpachi as a kid was stronger than a Captain lol.
In any case the stuff about Kenpachi restraining himself does make sense to some extent.
However him beating Unohana would have made more sense if he where a bit older rather than a small kid.

"I have never been a canvas shoe kind of woman-I prefer jeweled flats or heels. This pink and white pair just stood out for me and I love that they don't look like Vans-they are preppy because they are boat shoes, so I ordered a pair.These are ADORABLE! They are amazing with shorts and very comfortable. They do seem to run a little long and I went a half size down from my usual size."

Why Didn't Anyone Tell Me About These Sooner?
"I bought two pairs of these online, thinking I would see which one I liked better and keep one pair. Well, I'm keeping both! I got the light green and a green/navy plaid pairs and love them both! They are comfortable right out of the box. I wore the green pair all day at work and the plaid pair to a local home show and was on my feet all day. They are super cute, fit true to size and are the most comfortable casual shoes I own. The low-rise cotton boat socks work great with them. Would buy them again in a heartbeat and will buy more when these wear out."

Previous year SCF releases:
For many purposes, one must consider the sampling error of SCF estimates. However, because detailed information on the sample design cannot be released, and because of the complexity of the SCF design, users cannot apply some of the standard procedures for variance estimation. A set of sample replicates has been created with bootstrap techniques and analysis weights have been computed independently for each replicate. Analysts may use these weights to make approximate estimates of sampling variance. Replicate weights corresponding to X42001 are available. See the codebook for more details.

One Million Trees and the 54 Ficus More than a year ago, Mayor Villaraigosa announced his plan for a million new trees in Los Angeles. But nobody knows how many have been planted, where, or what kind they are. Meanwhile there's a media circus over fifty-four ficus trees in downtown Santa Monica that the City Council has voted to cut down. Activists call it a "Chainsaw Massacre." A court has issued a restraining order and tomorrow night, activists plan to show up the City Council's regular meeting.

By NEMS Daily Journal
One of the paradoxes of contemporary life is that with all the technological agents of convenience available to us, our lives are busier and more time-cramped than ever.
All those time-saving, simplicity-seeking devices somehow have backfired on us; they've loaded us up with many more new ways to complicate our lives. Add to that the general trend toward longer working hours most Americans have experienced in recent years and you have a recipe for stimulus overload and chronic fatigue.
And yet studies tell us what we know intuitively: Americans are getting less sleep than ever. There is less rest for a more weary nation.
This space on Saturdays usually deals with religious and faith matters as they relate to public issues or everyday life. What have busy lives and lack of sleep got to do with that?
A lot, actually.
Spiritual health, no less than physical health, requires rest, reflection and renewal. In the sensory bombardment that now makes up so much of our lives, the voice of God can get drowned out. We surrender ourselves not to God but to the relentless, mind-numbing, spiritually-sapping pace of modern, techno-saturated life. And we're worn out, spiritually and physically.
Sleep is the great restorer, and it is also spiritual in a sense. It is a giving up of the control we seek over ourselves and others when we are awake. It is also an act of faith.
"(Sleep) is a surrender, a laying down of arms," writes the Christian author and theologian Frederick Buechner. "Whatever plans you're making, whatever pleasures you're enjoying, whatever sorrows or anxieties or problems you're in the midst of, you set them aside, find a place to stretch out somewhere, close your eyes, and wait for sleep…
"You have given up being in charge of your life. You have put yourself into the hands of the night."
That sleep is a temporary surrender of control is one of the reasons so many of us choose to have so little of it these days. There is work to be done, after all, things to be accomplished, entertainments to be enjoyed – sleep keeps us from these preoccupations.
But isn't it telling that so many times in the Bible, God speaks to people while they are asleep, revealing to them in dreams his plans and his purposes.
Sometimes we are able to let God in only when we set aside our "the constant moving around, the yammering will, the relentless or not so relentless purpose," as Buechner puts it. We literally have to lie down to release ourselves from our willfulness.
We may not be conscious of it when we're asleep, but God rests in us and with us, and we find refreshment. We have abandoned ourselves totally to his care.
"It is a rehearsal for the final laying down of arms, of course," writes Buechner, "when you trust yourself to the same unseen benevolence to see you through the dark and to wake you when the time comes – with new hope, new strength – into the return again of light."

Treviso caused the first major shock of the RaboDirect PRO12 season as they defeated reigning champions the Ospreys 12-6.
Treviso caused the first major shock of the RaboDirect PRO12 season as they defeated champions the Ospreys 12-6 at Stadio Comunale di Monigo.
With a day of torrential rain and the odd flash of lightning as a backdrop at the Stadio Comunale di Monigo, the home side made an industrious start to the game as the Ospreys' ill-discipline was proving to be their downfall.
With the wind at his back, Kristopher Burton kicked three penalties, one of which saw the sin-binning of Wales international lock Ian Evans sin, giving the home side a 9-0 lead.
Ospreys fly-half Dan Biggar and Burton exchanged penalties to take the score to 12-3 before Evans was shown a second yellow card and therefore sent off for a high tackle on fly-half Alberto Di Bernado.
The Welsh region's failure to control their own set-piece possession enabled the Italian side to camp in their half for much of the first period with the impressive Trevsio back-row of Simone Favaro, Alessandro Zanni, and Robert Barbieri thriving in the wet conditions.
The defending champions showed encouraging signs at the start of the second half but the Treviso pack continued their impressive dominance as their driving maul was proving to be a formidable weapon.
The only points of the second half came via a Biggar penalty in what was becoming an error-strewn encounter.
Despite playing nearly an hour with 14-men, the 4-times champions have only themselves to blame for not registering an opening RaboDirect weekend win.
Biggar missed three simple penalties, winger Tom Isaacs spilt the ball with the try-line beckoning, centre Ashley Beck was held up over the line and Treviso prop Ignacio Fernandez-Rouyet and replacement second-row Dean Budd were both sin-binned in the second half.
The scorers:
For Treviso:

For Ospreys:
Pen: Biggar 2
Treviso: 15 Kristopher Burton, 14 Ludovico Nitoglia, 13 Tommaso Iannone, 12 Alberto Sgarbi, 11 Luke McLean, 10 Alberto Di Bernardo, 9 Edoardo Gori, 8 Robert Barbieri, 7 Alessandro Zanni, 6 Simone Favaro, 5 Corniel Van Zyl (c), 4 Francesco Minto, 3 Ignacio Fernandez-Rouyet, 2 Enrico Ceccato, 1 Alberto De Marchi.

The POC Joint VPD Elbow Pads offer serious protection, yet they're designed for situations where full-on body armor seems a bit overkill. Part of the beauty of the Joint VPD pad design is the slim nature, allowing them to be worn easily underneath a jersey -- you can look casual and be safe at the same time.
POC encases a VPD cushion over the elbow joint just inside a tough aramid/lycra material for abrasion resistant, yet lightweight protection. The Joint Elbow Pads are designed so that a bend is the "normal" position, as few of us ride straight-armed for any length of time and it's frustrating to be fighting with your pads while riding. VPD, or visco-elastic polymer dough, is something special. If you work it slowly in your hands, it's soft and conforms easily around shapes. But slam something, like a rock or tree into it, and it becomes instantly hard. And in that instant, comfort becomes protection via some molecular magic. VPD is more comfortable and outperforms other "soft armor" designs in safety testing. After all, that's the point isn't it?
The POC Joint VPD Elbow Pads use one elasticized velcro strap above the elbow to hold them firmly in place. They come in Black and are available in Small, Medium, and Large sizes.

Great protection from rocks and the cold
These pads are more protection than I was expecting. The VPD material is soft and molds with your body as you heat up and move around, and the coverage around the elbow and forearm is stellar. I'm a lot less fearful charging down some gravely trails when I have these on. They have slid down my arms a little, but with the velcro fasteners it takes a quick adjustment to tighten them up around my bicep. Probably more than you need on friendly cross country trails, but I am happy to have these when its cooler or when the trail starts to get rocky.
It served it purpose
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
Had two crashes so far and this prevented me from having severe bruising, cuts, and skin peels. They fit comfortably and doesn't slide down. Better to be safe than sorry.
Crashed wearing these...
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've used these several times. The medium size fits me great (I'm 5ft. 11in. and 165lbs; forearm circumference is 24cm, bicep circumference is 28cm). The pads are a little tight at first but once they are worn in they fit perfectly. They can be worn on bare skin or between a thin layer of clothing without slipping off (they stay better if worn on bare skin though). I was recently doing some DH riding when I completely flipped off my bike and landed on my elbow. This pad took the hit like a boss. I haven't tried any other pads but I'm happy with these. They work and are comfortable to wear. Very low profile too.
These are POCing good!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I brought these firstly because my riding buddies have them. I'm a bit of sheep and refuse to make my own mind up and want to fit in. Gotta have swag down the jumps right!? I guess I also brought them because every time I came off, I cut the Sh!t out of my elbows. I was getting sick of that and these things were on sale. The first time I took them out, I came off and these saved my elbows from looking like they'd been through a cheese grater. You can't ask for more than that and they're also good when it's hot outside. If you wanna save your elbows and also look like you have all the top gear and know what you're doing, buy these. Otherwise, TCP is good for cleaning out wounds.
They are ok but others have caught up
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
POC use to rule the high end protection gear; now other companies have caught up. I would only buy POC b/c of the superior material, etc but now they are just overpriced for what you get. Remember everyone, this gear is suppose to be disposable after couple of hard years of use and even then the material I suspect will degrade over time and will need to be tossed. These pads after 3 yrs are still flexible but as others mentioned they just don't stay up on my elbow; constantly pulling them up. They have a velcro strap at the top you cinch down but then its either too tight and arms hurt or too lose and fall down. I have taken a bif and they hold up well and did their job.
Great for Trail/AM riding
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Packs well.
Stays fitted while riding. Haven't had to really use them yet in a crash (knock on wood!) but seem like it will save some skin.
Best suited for Trail/All Mountain use. There are better products for DH riding.
Best Elbow guard in the market !
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
raided with this set for 5 hours from Jerusalem to the Dead Sea in Israel !!! was perfect ! didn't move and was very comfy.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
They are super comfy, no rub. The build quality is suspect, they stretch out quick and the material rips pretty easily. They stay in place OK when riding but slip off the elbow if you fall.
Probably adequate for an XC'er who wants something..for DH seek something better.
Save those bows
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I broke an elbow this past ski season and decided some elbow pads would be a must for mtb this summer. they are true to fit and rarely do i need to adjust them because of sliding purposes. They breath far better than i thought as well, making this some of the best protection i bought in a while.
Very happy with this product!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The POC elbow guards are the only ones I have ever had that stay in place, and do not rub and create sores on my arms... never have to worry about pulling them back up while I am riding, plus they are COMFY! I had a fantastic wreck riding downhill at winter park, and the portion of my arm they were covering is completely unscathed, including without bruising (while everything above and below is quite scathed!) Impressively, the elbow pad itself isn't even damaged, which I don't even understand how that is possible... They did not move when I wrecked, which I cannot say for the elbow pads I have used in the past... thinking I need to invest in some more POC gear!
Don't Ride without Them
Another View
Rear view of the elbow protector showing breathable fabric, velcro strap and the silicon band to keep the elbow protector up on your arm.
Almost There
Elbow pads have to be the hardest thing in the world to make well, since no one seems to be able to do it. POC is really close with these, but not quite there. They're super comfortable, but in Whistler breaking bumps, they'll slip down and be hanging around your wrist by the end Freight Train for sure.
Protection, Protection
I bought a large and like the POC Knee Protectors, they felt a little tight. My arms started to sweat, but the silicon strip in the lining kept the elbow protector in one place.
These suck
I don't exactly have chicken arms, but these won't stay in place once they get sweaty. They don't have a lower strap, and the upper strap is too long (can't get it tight enough and still velco. They're going into the back of the closet, and I'm buying some Fox ones. And they're expensive too
Here's an update -- hadn't gotten new ones yet and used them this weekend. Crashed and they didn't stay in place. Looks like I didn't even have them on. For reference, size small and 14" arms. Get something else!
Why no sizes other than large? I'm no...
Why no sizes other than large?
I'm no neanderthal, I need a pair of smalls for my tiny Swedish man arms!
Solid Pad - Sizing maybe slightly small
Just picked up the joint vpd elbow and knee pad from POC. The quality of this armor from POC is very solid and feels great. Having the flexibility and protection from POC makes a huge difference in my opinion. The elbow protector fits perfect but the knee pad seems a bit small. I have smaller calves but my quads are on the bigger side and so I'm going to have to size up to the large as it isn't very easy to pedal with them cutting off blood circulation =)
I highly recommend getting these pads... even if they are a little more expensive I feel the comfort level through flexibility is all worth it. Just make sure you check your sizing.
Spending this much? Get the 2.0 version for a few bucks more. After a year and a few crashes they still look like new. These get heavy with perspiration can often slip. The forearm side opening also stretches and your next wipe out can push the pad up your arm. Exposing skin and scraping the crap outta you. The velcro closure elastic also stetches like crazy and you may run out of velcro before you can cinch the closure tight enough.
POC VPD Pads are solid
This is a great Elbow pad. The velcro strap on the top keeps them right where they should be at all times. POC costs a bit more than other brands but they are dedicated to making high quality products. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a solid elbow pad. The Knee Pads are great as well.

good price, dose, but R-lipoate is better
Posted by Reviewer2795053 on Apr 10, 2009
Nice price and dose for those who are more careful. On the other hand, I think R-lipoic acid is the way to go. Order bulk and it too is quite cheap. This stuff made my urine smell funny--more amusing anecdote than anything, I know... but S-lipoic acid seems to counteract some of R-lipoic acid's benefits, and I notice superior blood-sugar control with the purer R-lipoic acid. (I'm not diabetic, but I use test strips for my own information.)

Sometimes a little teamwork goes a long way.
The adage is proven true on a regular basis at Parker Assisted Living by Morningstar, a retirement community that opened in September on the southeast corner of Mainstreet and Dransfeldt Road. Once a month, 10 to 12 seniors gather in the dining area to assemble bagged lunches for those living on the streets of Denver.
Janel Berilgen, executive chef for Parker Assisted Living and creator of the program, is among the staff members who break out the goodies needed to get the project done. She starts each table with bowls of jelly, jars of peanut butter and plenty of bread. Pretty soon, stacks of PBJs begin to form, as the residents and visitors busily chatter away.
Among them is Chuck Reid, a spry 80-year-old who keeps things entertaining through witticisms and jokes. He sits across from Lois Verkler, 87, who has done her fair share of volunteer work throughout her life and shows no signs of stopping. Her daughter frequently brings her to Parker Assisted Living to join in the many activities.
It was Berilgen's mother who got the ball rolling on the homeless project five years ago. Instead of exchanging gifts for Christmas, they decided to hand out handmade burritos to homeless citizens on Colfax Avenue and in the area of the Capitol building. Berilgen then brought the idea to a retirement home near Boulder, where she was an employee.
"It gives them a sense of purpose, and them helping the community back, and is one of their favorite things to do," she said.
Food is not the only necessity included in the bags. The volunteers also pack in toothpaste, toothbrushes, bottled water, and sometimes, hats, gloves, headbands, crocheted blankets and coats. Many of the items are donated; Parker Assisted Living recently partnered with Pepsi and Kraft to help bolster the food supplies.
Berilgen forgoes the traditional route of partnering with a homeless shelter in favor of a more personal approach.
"We do it on our own," she says. "We go out to the streets and pass them out."
The philanthropists have gained a grateful following in downtown Denver. They hit areas with large homeless populations, including three shelters near Park Avenue West, and the recipients have become familiar with the group and its regular stops.
It all starts with a few caring hearts and some hard work on the seniors' assembly line.
"They really enjoy doing it," Berilgen said.

By PAUL L. YOUNGSt. George
Now after the fact, regarding our forests, what we are now seeing is the handiwork of the radical extreme environmentalists and the end results of their frivolous appeals. Actually what you are seeing is their version of how our forests should be managed, so what you see is the end results of their stupidity.
Suggestion: the forest service should select an area where all trees are dead, with the intention to clear cut every dead tree standing. Advertise any trees that can produce lumber for sale free. Require that all trees be limbed where they are felled. Those trees too small to make lumber and too big for the shredder should be cut up and sold for fire wood. Then follow through with a shredder, chop all limbs and any other trees too small for sale. They also must be shredded. Spread the clippings all over the forest floor. They will control weeds and trash brush and erosion.
Then mark the area off check row method as in orchards. Then advertise the forests as Eagle Scout Projects requiring three scouts working together to plant young trees. The forest service provides the trees using wood pegs in the ground where the tree is to be planted. One scout digs holes, another scout plants the young tree and covers the hole, the third scout with a three gallon back mounted sprayer follows behind and waters the newly planted tree. Each project should consist of 300 young trees. When scouts have completed their major project to earn their eagle badge, the forest supervisor can provide their scout master with a letter of approval.
There are several hundred boy scouts in Utah that would jump at the chance to participate in this project to earn their Eagle badge, and our forests would be on the way back to what they once were, 30 years ago.

Lovely sandal
"Bought this sandal wedge in the clearance section of DSW. It can easily be dressed down or up. Very easy to walk in. I have gotten complements on it. My only complaint is that the ankle strap sometimes will rub uncomfortably on to my ankles but that can easily be remedied by loosening it. Would recommend."

At End of Hard Road, Jewish Caring Brings Hope
At the end of a long dirt road departing from Gori, a small war-ravaged town in Georgia's countryside, Lela, 22, awaits her visitors excitedly. She has put on her nice blouse, only necklace, and brightest smile. For this young woman who suffers from partial paralysis and spends the majority of her days in her crumbling home, this visit is the highlight of her week.
Lela was born and raised in the three-room house she shares with her single mom Mzia and grandfather Vasil. Together they work the small plot of land by their home, raising chickens and growing fruit, nuts, and beans—their primary means of subsistence.
Diagnosed as a child with thrombosis, Lela began losing sensation in her right side when she was ten years old and today half of her body is completely paralyzed. She also suffers from epilepsy and a variety of hormone-related complications.
The family survives on an unimaginably small income. Mzia lovingly cares for her ailing daughter and is unable to work; she does not receive unemployment compensation because there are no such social services in Georgia. Lela's disability supplement and her grandfather's pension add up to just $100 a month.
But somehow none of this dims Lela's smile.
Today they are being paid a visit by the caseworker from their local Hesed welfare center who is bringing a package of oil, macaroni, rice, and some vegetables—likely the only food they will have from beyond their doorstep this month.
Ninety percent of the clients of the Hesed welfare center in Gori do not work and are completely reliant on JDC services such as food packages, meals-on-wheels, and material assistance with medicine, winter heating bills, and house repairs. The economic situation throughout the region is dire; there is little commerce and even fewer jobs for people like Mzia. The Hesed is literally their only hope to put food on their table and keep their lights on.
For Lela, Hesed has been a home since she was a little girl. The center houses community events for Jewish holidays and a variety of enrichment activities, including camp, Hebrew lessons, and classes in computers, which Lela particularly enjoyed last year.
Mzia greets the visitor with a bowl of sweet grapes from their garden; even a family who has nothing upholds Georgia's long-standing tradition of warmth and hospitality.
The visitor asks about Lela's health right away and Mzia gets visibly anxious as she broaches the topic of Lela upcoming doctor's appointment at the epilepsy center. The family's biggest expenses are Lela's prescriptions and medical care. Now she needs a head scan that will cost the family half a year's income.
"She used to have seizures several times each month," Mzia explains, "but the medicines have been working so well she hasn't had any in a bit. Still, the medications are very expensive and I worry about what she will be prescribed next. I worry about where she will need to go for the next treatment and how we will pay for it."
Lela tells the case worker she visited Israel for her condition several years ago and was told she was inoperable. "I loved it there. I saw Jerusalem, I went to the Wailing Wall.
