Good For A Guy, Good Enough For WomenHey probably the first review by a man, but this product worked like charm. Work it slow and you will be fine. Only problem was the wooden sticks they give you are useless. I found olive oil worked as well as a pre waxing oil.Feb 21, 2013Aidan / Toronto

Horrible!I've never given a bad review anywhere but I had to sign up today just to tell everyone- DO NOT BUY THIS!
It is horrible!!!
It says 30-45 min to heat up... well it didn't. So i left it for an hour. It didn't. So I left it for two hours. It's still not hot enough!!!
I tried waxing a small area first and good thing I did. The wax is horrible quality, the worst I've ever seen. I'm never buying this overrpriced c**p again and neither should you!!

Surgi Wax Is Not User FriendlyMy experience with surgi wax is aweful. I have been waxing my legs and arms for over 25 years with cold wax and had no problems in the past.In my opinion this product should not be used on larger areas like legs and arms. it can work perfect for smaller areas. It badly damaged my blood vessels and left my legs and arms with scars.It was hard to remove dried wax ,that was left on my skin evenif I applied in small patches. I cant say much about other users who are happy with the same but as far as I am concerned I am not using this product ever again. One suggestion : Please ensure the kit must include a small bottle of turpentine oil or a baby oil. If I had one handly probably it could have saved me from damaging my skin.Mar 26, 2012Monica K.

Wolf EarsSurgiwax is the best product in the world for getting rid of " Wolf Ears." At over 65yrs of age I have more hair coming out of my ears than growing on my head. I apply Surgiwax with a flat stick in and on my ears, wait about 20 or 30 seconds and pull off. This procedure hurts a little but the results are worth the pain. No more "Wolf Ears."Jan 18, 2012Mike / FL

Worst Waxing Experience Ever!!!This is one of the worst waxing products on the market! The package said 'Salon quality' and it seemed to have everything in the package that you would need for a good waxing job. But right from the get-go it was a bad experience! First the instructions said to heat the wax in the warmer between 30-45 mins...well I tried for over an hour to get the wax melted enough to roll with the roller. It still wouldn't work. I squeezed some down onto the roller, which barely worked, but it did allow me to roll some on my leg. The roller got stuck right away and I wasn't able to roll any more out on my skin. So I used the muslin strip to try and see if the wax would work. The strip pulled the wax off my leg, but not much hair! The wax that was left on my leg was all sticky and even though I used oil to get it off, I still had a hard time getting the rest of the wax off. I even tried squeezing the wax onto a spatula to spread it on my leg, but it didn't work. This wax just would not melt!!
Horrible, messy experience, and a complete waste of $40!!Jun 22, 2011AnonymousHAIR TYPECurly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

The Best Hair Removal!I've used this product for years now and it's the best over all others. You need to know how to apply it though. It does take some common sense... like applying it in smaller sections rather than the picture below where the woman applied it on her WHOLE LEG!! Only apply about 2-3 inches at a time if you are inexperienced with this product. Start in smaller sections and then do bigger sections once you are experienced and comfortable enough. Also, apply a slightly thicker layer of wax and make sure the wax is not broken off anywhere. When you peel it, the whole strip of wax should come off at once and not small pieces. I use this on my face, brows, underarms and biki area and never had a problem with it.May 28, 2010Rona

AdendumAdendum to my previous review. I've been reading some of the other reviews and I see that they've changed some of the formula. I have been using the original formula so I can't vouch for the improved version. I also have never used this roller thing people are talking about; I've always just used popsicle sticks, a new one each session. And please please please, people, don't try to remove the wax with hot showers or baths. I can only imagine how messy and impossible that situation would be. If you're finding that it's too sticky, try a cooler environment or slightly cool water, and if it's hardening too fast, get out of the air conditioning and find a room temperature environment. Temperature (both air and leg temperature) is everything with this stuff. If you're in a situation where you have a thin crust all over and you're freaking out, calm down, add a little more wax to unify the cracks into one piece, try to get it the consistancy of taffy, and take it off. I usually have good results with a 1/8th inch thickness. Then use lotion or oil to get the rest and maybe some baby powder (or corn starch). I'm sorry if you are having a tough time. At least for the original green stuff, I've always liked it. I have very sensitive, pale skin and I don't seem to have a problem. It removes both the fine hair on my legs and the coarse hair on my bikini area without any lasting irritation. Good luck.Apr 27, 2010Stacey

Israel Health & Medicine: Medical Research & Development
Israel has made significant theoretical and practical contributions to the biotechnology revolution and has developed an advanced infrastructure of medical and paramedical research as well as bioengineering capabilities. Clinical medicine and biomedical research account for over half of all scientific publications. The country's industrial sector has increased its activities in the medical field to capitalize on its extensive knowledge base.
Local scientists have developed methods for producing a human growth hormone and interferon, a group of proteins effective against viral infections. Genetic engineering, including cloning, has resulted in a wide spectrum of diagnostic kits based on monoclonal antibodies, along with other microbiological products.
Sophisticated medical equipment for both diagnostic and treatment purposes has been developed and marketed worldwide, such as computer tomography (CT) scanners, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems, ultrasound scanners, nuclear medical cameras and surgical lasers. Other recent innovations include a controlled-release liquid polymer to prevent accumulation of tooth plaque; a device to reduce both benign and malignant swellings of the prostrate gland; and the use of botulin to correct eye squint.

DETROIT - Three players recorded hat tricks and finished with a game-high four points as Quinnipiac University men's lacrosse team handled Detroit-Mercy, 13-8, Sunday afternoon at Titan Field. Christian Haggerty (West Nyack, N.Y.), Peter McNichols (Norwalk, Conn.) and Jack Oppenheimer (Conshohocken, Pa.) all found the back of the net three times, while each also assisted on another goal to lead the Bobcats to their second straight win. Quinnipiac is now 2-1 this season after back-to-back wins against Wagner and Detroit. The Titans remain winless this season, dropping to 0-3.
Oppenheimer led a Quinnipiac attack that launched 26 shots on goal in the game. The junior finished the game with seven shots on target, while McNichols and Haggerty were not far behind, firing four shots on goal each. Haggerty now has eight points in his last two games and a team-best nine this season, after also scoring three times and recoding four points against Wagner on Thursday.
Junior goalkeeper Kevin Benzing (Severna Park, Md.) turned aside eight shots in earning his second win of the season. His counterpart in the Titans' A.J. Levell turned aside 13 shots in the game, while allowing all 13 Quinnipiac goals in 60 minutes of play.
After Tim Lehto recorded the game's opening tally four minutes in, Quinnipiac scored five unanswered goals to take the commanding 5-1 lead midway through the second quarter. Haggerty scored the Bobcats' first of the game with Oppenheimer assisting on the goal. Oppenheimer scored just under two minutes later for his first of the game, followed by McNichols' first just 15 seconds into the second period.
Haggerty's third of the game came with 6:46 remaining in the first half and gave the Bobcats a 6-2 lead at the break.
Oppenheimer, McNichols and sophomore Zach Pall (Setauket, N.Y) all scored to start the second half and give Quinnipiac the 9-2 lead. Two man-up goals by Detroit's Scott Harris and Joel Matthews pulled the Titans to within five, 9-4, before McNichols answered with his third of the game, coming with the man-up opportunity and 5:31 remaining in the third quarter.
Senior Todd Kaiser (Summit, N.J.) scored his second of the season with four minutes remaining in the third quarter before Detroit scored three straight goals over the course of the next seven minutes of play.
Down a man following a Chris Coppolechia (Somers, N.Y.) slashing penalty, Oppenheimer scored his third of the game and sixth of the season with 10:22 remaining in the game. An Alex DeAlmeida (Point Pleasant, N.J.) goal all but sealed the victory a minute later as the Bobcats held off the Titans in the final 10 minutes for the 13-8 win.
For the game, the Bobcats won 14 of the 24 face-offs, while picking up 36 ground balls to Detroit's 34. Benzing held off the Titans late, making four saves in the final quarter, while Levell did not record any of his 13 saves in the final frame. Quinnipiac was 2-for-10 with the man-up opportunity, while Detroit was 2-for-9 in the game with the extra player.
The Bobcats return home to take on the Providence Friars on Saturday, Mar. 13 at the Quinnipiac Field Hockey & Lacrosse Turf Field. The teams are set to faceoff at 1 p.m.

New Perspectives on Students – Part 3
by gwilson on May.20, 2009, under Uncategorized
Welcome back! I must have piqued your curiosity if you are back to see how my third installment resolves this discussion about college students and good teaching. If you'll remember, in episode 1, I defined the problem with teaching in the sciences and the horrible disconnect between old ways of teaching and learning, and how important to national security and prosperity such a gap represented. Our goal cannot be to weed out students in the sciences – it must be to find better ways to engage them and foster their success. In episode 2, I made my case for the source of the problem being the way technology has forever changed the planet. We often think of technology as being a wonderful thing for improving teaching. My point is this is a double-edged sword. That which is useful as a teaching tool is also responsible for the changes in students that make use of technology for teaching in old ways no better than teaching without it in old ways. The issue in teaching is not technology or no technology – it is old teaching vs. new teaching. Our approaches have to change to reach the 21st Century student.
Predator-prey relationships. If you remember the cyclic nature of these relationships, you also remember that changes in the prey population necessitate changes in the predator population to keep pace or perish. Our college world has changed irreparably, and we as college faculty can either adapt or go extinct. The obvious changes in today's college students have not been matched by a change in our teaching styles and expectations - students (our prey) represent the first population to change and faculty (the predators) are left in a perpetual game of "catch up". Millenial students provide the selective pressure that will dictate the direction of that natural selection.
My BIMS colleague Tom Benoit has convinced me: less is more when it comes to education. Spend your time limiting and teaching to what is truly needed, and invest more time in helping them learn to be proficient in its use. Abandon wholesale mastering and embrace effective management of information. Nobody can master the information in any science field! Just when you think you're current, it is time for another 1000 life science journals to arrive in the mail. It is better to do a few things well than many things poorly. We can't turn back the clock and expect students to go back to the old-school approach to education – the technology genie (and all of its ramifications) is out of the bottle. The same can be said for the information explosion in any of our main science disciplines – keeping pace with change is not something possible for small college science programs. But we can spend every semester trying to close the gap in that predator-prey curve by teaching in ways students learn, providing them with useful skills that match their abilities, and focusing on what is important to know and what we can let technology do about the rest.
The knee-jerk response to my assertion that technology is to blame for the huge chasm that has formed between the way we teach and the way students learn would be to think increasing use of technology on the professor's part would be the way to increase motivation. Fighting fire with fire! That is not what I am saying or promoting. I believe technology can help, but the answer is not in the tools used – it is in the approach taken.
The BIMS program at McMurry was carefully constructed to take a different approach in science education, one so radical that the knee-jerk reaction is it can never work. We have every reason to believe it will. We realized success hinged on having a great lure/bait with which to capture the attention of students. We needed to "work the lure" to further draw students into becoming an active part of their "capture" as future scientists. We knew we had to reduce the distractions that would scare off our prey. Our goal was not to be great teachers, it was to have students become great learners (as Tom Benoit says "A day spent learning is a day lost of lecturing!"). As we began to solidify our approach to the degree we were constructing, we realized we were on to something. Though in its infancy, the program shows signs of taking the disenchantment and boredom so many first year college students experience in science majors and replacing it with a fun, engaging, and highly successful alternative. In Part 4, I'll lay out our philosophy and approach that forms the foundation for McMurry's truly innovative curriculum and program in Biomedical Science.

Yanno how we realized Wrangler jeans are cool in Europe (but still not really state-side) this past summer? Well, the Aussies have blown us away again with a sexy lookbook shoot for the Wrangler Autumn campaign for men & women. The shoot is relaxed and doesn't try too hard (something a few brands should probably take notes on), with great saturated hues and angles that show off… erm, the denim. And some nice asses too. Our favorite pieces are the red cuffed-hem shorts and railroad stripe denim workshirt.

Law School Announces New Downtown Restaurant
The Docket, the café and bistro opening on the ground floor of the law school's new home at 100 N. Tucker Blvd., will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner beginning this fall.

"The Docket" will soon take on a new meaning for Saint Louis University School of Law students, faculty and staff as well as downtown's legal and business communities. This fall an aptly named café and bistro will open on the ground floor of SLU LAW's new home at 100 N. Tucker Blvd., in the heart of downtown's civic and judicial center.
The 3,500-square-foot restaurant, operated by the award-winning Palo Alto-based food service group Bon Appétit Management Company in partnership with Saint Louis University, will offer quick breakfasts and lunches with a more leisurely dinner service. The design of clean modern lines paired with a rustic farmhouse sensibility will feature an open kitchen and both communal and casual seating, with 110 seats inside and 72 outside, weather permitting.
"We envision The Docket as place for the legal and civic community to gather alongside SLU law students, faculty and staff," said Dean Michael Wolff. "The concept Bon Appétit has put together perfectly embodies the idea of our integration into the downtown community."
Founded in 1987 in Silicon Valley, Bon Appétit Management Company focuses on chef-driven cafés set at corporations, universities, museums and specialty venues that develop relationships in the communities they serve, specifically through the use of local foods and sustainable practices. They currently operate an award-winning program at Washington University and are set to open a new restaurant on July 1 at the St. Louis Art Museum.
The menu at The Docket will focus on small plates, pizzas, pastas and rustic entrees featuring locally sourced, seasonal ingredients and skilled from-scratch cooking. A wood-burning oven and grill will be the heart of the space serving a steady stream of pizzas, flatbreads and earthenware casseroles.
A notable hallmark of the restaurant is also The Docket's bar. It will feature everything from freshsqueezed juices and house-made aqua frescas to craft brews and signature cocktails made with local spirits, with the focus on carefully made, handcrafted beverages.
The restaurant will be open Monday through Friday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and on Saturday for dinner only. The concept of a high-quality cafe and bistro for the downtown law school facility began with University President, Lawrence Biondi, S.J., who approved the partnership with Bon Appétit. Biondi originally announced plans for historic move of the law school in January 2012

By JASON BAILEYSun Advocate/Progress Network Administrator
It's mid-morning. You sit down at the computer, fire up your Internet browser, and visit your favorite web site. Oddly, you discover that last week's content is still being displayed. So, you phone your buddy across town, who claims their computer is showing recent content from this week. You may ask, what gives?
This kind of thing happens quite frequently, actually. As webmaster of the Sun Advocate and Emery County Progress web sites, I often get calls from online readers who are seeing old content, thinking we haven't recently updated our web site.
I have to explain to them that the content has, in fact, been updated and then proceed to explain to them what to do to fix the problem.
To understand the cause of the problem, you have to understand a little bit about browser caching. Browser caching is a process that involves holding onto recently viewed information for a certain period of time just in case it is needed again.
Internet browsers, like Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera all contain a browser cache that contains all the contents of web sites the user has visited recently.
But why would a browser do such a thing? Because in most cases Internet bandwidth (interpreted by you as download speed) comes at a premium.
So when a user visits a site and then decides they want to go back to the page before, for example, the browser generally loads the site from it's cache rather than re-downloading the website like it did in the first place. Why re-download content that was just viewed minutes or even seconds before?
Another purpose for browser cache is offline support. This means you can load a site you've just viewed even though your Internet connection has since been turned off or disabled. Such a feature was very handy back when dial-up was the mainstream way of getting online.
The problem is, sometimes the browser incorrectly loads the site from cache instead of loading it like normal. So the user thinks he or she is viewing the actual site, when in fact they are looking at an old copy the computer has been holding onto for some time.
The solution? In virtually all modern Internet browsers, you simply need to hold the Shift key and click the reload or refresh button; or, alternatively, press Shift+F5.
Doing so will force the browser to load the site like normal, thereby downloading and displaying the site contents directly from the site itself.

The Subprime Crisis: Cause, Effect and Consequences
Richard Christopher Whalen
Kroll Bond Rating Agency; Economic Advisory Committee of FINRA; Association of Private Enterprise Education (APEE); National Association of Business Economists (NABE)
March 1, 2008
Networks Financial Institute Policy Brief No. 2008-PB-04
Despite the considerable media attention given to the collapse of the market for complex structured assets that contain subprime mortgages, there has been too little discussion of why this crisis occurred. The Subprime Crisis: Cause, Effect and Consequences argues that three basic issues are at the root of the problem, the first of which is an odious public policy partnership, spawned in Washington and comprising hundreds of companies, associations and government agencies, to enhance the availability of affordable housing via the use of creative financing techniques. Second, federal regulators have actively encouraged the rapid growth of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives and securities by all types of financial institutions. And third, also bearing blame for the subprime crisis is the related embrace by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board of fair value accounting. After reviewing the Bush administration's proposed solutions as flawed, this article recommends a strategy for subprime crisis resolution. Job one is to rebuild market confidence in structured assets by going back to first principles on issues such as market transparency, standardization of contracts, and accounting treatment. By reducing complexity on the trade of structured assets through simple deal structures and providing investors with the information they need to analyze collateral, for example by requiring SEC registration and public pricing of assets, much of the current liquidity problem is ameliorated.

Great job, Anna! It looks like your kids were having a blast! You did a great job on the scraplift. TFS
How cute. I love the spring colours and it sure looks like fun day.
Just love the blue background paper and the striped paper across it. Also love the grass and the eggs peeking out behind the grass. The photos are just lovely. Looks like they were having fun hunting for those eggs.

I love me some Holly Hunter!
Also, Happy MLK DAY!ReplyCancel
Holly Hunter needs to come back to TV.ReplyCancel
Don't care for Amy Adams dress.
Love Ariel's and Holly's dress.ReplyCancel
Anna Gunn looks GOOD. Finally!!ReplyCancel
Anna Gunn looks amazing.
Love Ariel Winter's dress – but it is too mature for her.
JLD looks amazing.ReplyCancel
I wish I was Cates statue!ReplyCancel
First prize to Anna Gunn! Absolutely stunning.
Second prize to – surprisingly, as I really don't like her – Amy Adams.
Cate, what were you thinking? This is the worst I've ever seen you look! 🙁ReplyCancel
Agreed, that dress is far too mature for Ariel.
Not liking Cate's dress.
Mindy Kalin's stylist should talk to Lena Dunham. They always dress her nicely and they have similar body shapes.
I think Gretchen Moll looks great there.
JLD's top looks wonky. And she looks like someone else but I can't think who.
Ahaha @Sugar!ReplyCancel
Actually, O_0…Ariel is with her sister because her mother is fucking nuts and the court found her an unfit guardian who was only interested in the money Ariel was bringing home. The mother only circulated the "Adult boyfriend" in the bedroom story after the courts intervened. The mother has since attempted to regain custody on more than one occasion and each time the court has denied her request.
Her father oversees her money, btw, not the sister who doesn't accept any money to care for Ariel and is relatively wealthy in her own right.ReplyCancel
Nobody ever says anything when teen girls with small boobs wear gowns that show even more. I've always had big boobs and it's not fair people. Discriminatory to big boobs is what I say. 🙂ReplyCancel
Good god, Ariel Winters looks like she's got 2 loaves of bread shoved down the front of her dress!ReplyCancel
Wow. That modern family girl looks terrible. WTF? My parents had no problem controlling my clothing choices. They took what they didn't like and destroyed it. As a 15 year old, I was not the head of my household.
Still hate Cate's dress, still love her. Good color, that's about it.
Gretchen Mol looks like she's wearing a surfer outfit gone wrong.
The rest – meh. Anna Gunn looks good. Mindy is awesome, she needs a better stylist.ReplyCancel

Mid-Day Headshots July 26th

Kevin Bieksa gives you the eye, over and over again... gif courtesy taylorpyatt.tumblr.com
Mid-Day Head-shots is a CanucksArmy feature where we round up today's freshest Canucks news including funny gifs, awesome videos, cool photos and interesting links. If you've written a Canucks blog-post and want it to be featured here, e-mail me at email@example.com.
Everyone and their second cousins milkman's dog-walker has a take on the Byron Bitz signing - but you should read ours since we make fun of Dale Tallon, include Bitz's work as a Vlogger and went to behindthenet to do some digging. Conclusion: Bitz is a large guy who is likely to be a run of the mill fourth-liner, but he's pretty disciplined and has some potential upside.
CONSPIRACY MATERIAL: PHT's James O'Brien has compiled some very interesting data about penalties called since the lockout. Guess who has had the third largest amount of penalties called against them? Yeah that's right, it's the Vancouver Canucks. I personally blame sleeper agent Mike Murphy, and I heartily suggest you do the same.
The Canucks for Kids Fund announced their grants for next year. Cam Davie wrote a must-read personal response here. The twenty six year old fund raised over four million dollars this year, bringing the cumulative total raised by the fund during its existence to well over thirty-five million. Vancouver hockey fans should be, and are, proud to root for a team that places as much importance on community improvement as the Canucks do.
Puck Daddy's Sean Leahy profiles a common type of Canucks-specific jersey foul - the mashup Sedin twins jersey. I've seen way to many jerseys like this in my time (including ones where the number is displayed like: "22/33") and I definitely call this sweater a flagrant foul.

Texas Board of Education cuts Thomas Jefferson out of its textbooks.
The Texas Board of Education has been meeting this week to revise its social studies curriculum. During the past three days, "the board's far-right faction wielded their power to shape lessons on the civil rights movement, the U.S. free enterprise system and hundreds of other topics":
- To avoid exposing students to "transvestites, transsexuals and who knows what else," the Board struck the curriculum's reference to "sex and gender as social constructs."
- The Board removed Thomas Jefferson from the Texas curriculum, "replacing him with religious right icon John Calvin."
- The Board refused to require that "students learn that the Constitution prevents the U.S. government from promoting one religion over all others."
- The Board struck the word "democratic" from the description of the U.S. government, instead terming it a "constitutional republic."
As the nation's second-largest textbook market, Texas has enormous leverage over publishers, who often "craft their standard textbooks based on the specs of the biggest buyers." Indeed, as The Washington Monthly has reported, "when it comes to textbooks, what happens in Texas rarely stays in Texas."
—DJ Carella
Update: Following repeated failed attempts to add figures in Hispanic history to the textbooks, one board member, Mary Helen Berlanga, stormed "out of the meeting late Thursday night, saying, 'They can just pretend this is a white America and Hispanics don't exist.'"

Time, as we're so often reminded, has the ability to repair us after we've been injured. Wounds heal, indignities fade into memory's recess, and we get on with our lives, more or less whole. That's the conceit that most of us live by, and when we face something that disappoints us, like a hockey player moving on from our favourite team, the world gets back on its axis after no more than a few flips of the calendar.
That's how things work under normal circumstances, at least. Tonight, though, presents Winnipeggers with a chance to experience something decidely abnormal, as one of the city's beloved adopted sons returns for a farewell visit in what are some fairly improbable circumstances.
It's always been my sense that Teemu Selanne's hold on the emotions of Jets' fans isn't strong simply because he was a fine player during his time here, or even that he got the bum's rush out of town in the winter of 1996, denied a last chance to say goodbye to a city that adored him. Plenty of athletes get traded under analogous circumstances, and even the best-liked of them become, after a bit of time, just another player on the enemy.
In a world operating in the standard manner, that would have been Selanne's fate in this city as well. Had the Jets remained in town after the 1996 season, Teemu would have returned the next year as a visiting Mighty Duck, been given a warm welcome, and that almost certainly would have been that. He would have continued to be well-regarded, of course, because he's the sort of player and person that rates respect, but over time his games here wouldn't have been dramatically different than the visits Dale Hawerchuk made in the 90's as a Sabre.
Of course, the normal rules of engagement were disrupted with the franchise relocating to Phoenix in the immediate aftermath of his trade to Anaheim, and that disruption is, in my view, at the heart of why Selanne's return to Winnipeg is destined to be an emotional one for the player and the patrons alike. The feelings of everyone involved were frozen in amber, if you will, in the spring of 1996.
As a result, the fans here spent the 15 years following Teemu's departure watching him succeed, struggle, and ultimately reach the pinnacle of the game elsewhere, but with the NHL absent from the city, he never made the transistion to becoming the enemy. Irrespective of his address at any given time, he still seemed like one of ours.
That's not exactly a rational attitude, obviously, but if a city's jilted fanbase were ever going to carry a torch for a departed player, I suppose that Winnipeg's could have done worse than choosing Teemu. He's been an exemplary pro on the ice, an engaging figure away from the rink, and he's someone that's made no secret of his high regard for the people here, so with that in mind, maybe it isn't so surprising that he's still an iconic figure a decade and a half after leaving town.
Even for those that aren't Jets' or Ducks' fans, though, he's worthy of every last bit of acclaim he gets. I've watched hockey for more years than I'd care to admit, and I can't remember any player having a similar career arc to Selanne. He was excellent in his 20's, very good for a few years beyond that, nearly finished at 34, and then managed to make it all the way back to excellent for multiple years after age 35.
It's possible that there's a player that's done something remotely similar, but if that's so their name escapes me at the moment. The unparalleled finishing kick Selanne has launched since 2005-06 has taken him from being regarded as a good player with a very high peak to a lock for the HHOF the first year that he becomes eligible. Without his post-lockout time, I've no doubt he would have been regarded as a slightly lesser version of Pavel Bure. That's not really the case now, is it?
Tonight, then, Teemu will almost certainly get the send-off he really should have received the first time around from a community that's never quite let him go. That's nothing but good, from my POV, since not only will Jets' fans give him the well-wishes Steven Gluckstern and Richard Burke denied him in 1996, but there's also a chance for this occasion to serve as one last cathartic farewell to that entire era of NHL hockey in this city.
I know closure is a word thrown around fairly freely, but I can't help but think that for a few people, Teemu's return represents a chance to heal the last remaining wound from Winnipeg's first go-round in the league. Selanne himself has been vocal in the last few days about how disappointed he was that he never had a chance to return to the city as a player in the wake of the trade, and his relish for this game has been obvious to anyone paying even the slightest attention.
At any rate, this evening has every prospect of being a very special one, and for those of us lucky enough to hold a ticket to the proceedings, it should be a moment that even the ravages of time will find hard to fade.

Cheap-looking impression
"Well I bought the black one for my mom because she can't stand any heels or sandals that are more than 3 in, but I decided to return this one immediately after getting the package. There's nothing wrong with the shoes, but I do feel like it's rather cheaply looking and the shoes doesn't embody the shape of my mom's feet very well. I returned the pair. Maybe the silver or gold ones look better in person."

Comfy and cute
"These boots are pretty great. I really wanted a combat style boot but with a sole that wasn't so slick that I would fall in the ice all winter! These are more than just fashion boots. They're actually constructed well and have good tread on them. I also like that they zip up the side so you can tie them how you like them once and not have to do it every time! My only complaint is that the right boot feels slight bigger than the left for some reason and they're slightly big overall. That works out fine because I just wear thick socks but I don't know why they don't feel like the exact same size! I usually don't have this problem - my feet are basically the exact same size. Anyway, it's not so big that they don't stay on, just weird. I'm still really happy with them overall."

"I had been looking for a basic pair of booties to wear with jeans and leggings and these fit the bill. They are a bit narrow but I am as well so it wasn't an issue for me. I had issues wearing them 2 days in a row because there is NO padding/cushioning on them and I wear sneakers all the time so I wasn't used to that. I still really like them, especially the style and details."

Pleasing to look at and wear
"I normally seek out shoes that are wide and was nervous these would feel tight. They feel great, no wobble or pinch. Pretty sturdy and they look very nice. Just be aware the glue around the zippers may make the zippers a little more difficult to open all the way down. So far it hasn't been a huge issue."

|adidas barricade 7.0 Men's Shoe Scores
|Arch Support
|Foot Support/Stability
|Overall Sole Durability
|Toe Durability
The release of a new adidas Barricade is always highly anticipated. Coming in lighter than past versions and touting a new all-seamless upper, the excitement over the barricade 7.0 was at a fever pitch. Our testers were, needless to say, excited. As they pulled them out of the box they saw that the cosmetic mixes new with old by going back to the more traditional 3-Stripes insignia. The next thing our crew noticed was the break-in time. Offering more comfort from the onset, this shoe doesn't require the same hours of break-in as past models. In fact, it was quite minimal. Those seemed to be the major differences from past iterations. Our playtesters were pleased with support, stability and durability -- signature Barricade traits. If there were a negative, it was that a couple of our testers jammed their toes into the front of the shoe on quick forward stops. While this was a common problem with the Barricade 6.0, the toe jamming was hit and miss with the 7, as our other playtesters didn't experience the same issue. When it comes down to it, the latest Barricade impressed us just as much as previous versions have.
Outside of some minor initial discomfort our testers felt this Barricade offered better comfort and less break-in than many previous versions. Spencer liked the overall comfort but had issues with the arch placement. He said, "The fit was right on in length and width. They were a little stiff at the beginning (good stability and support), and I noticed the arches to be slightly high and forward. This caused a dime sized blister in the first hour of hitting. It also took 15-20 minutes to get the traction right and to get used to the flexpoints. Once there (minus the blister), the shoes were great, and I liked the overall comfort. There was a bit of discomfort at the beginning because of the awkward arch placement in the shoe (reminiscent of the CC Genius), but after a couple of hitting sessions the arches broke in, and it was smooth sailing from there."
Jason felt the toe box was a bit tight. He said, "A definite improvement from the previous version, the barricade 7.0 had a softer upper and needed a very short break-in period. The cushioning was responsive and comfortable, so I had no issues there. The toe box was a bit too narrow for me, and I had some rubbing on my big toes that caused some minor blisters. There were no problems with pinching, as the uppers flexed in all the right places."
Jose was happy with the fit and cushioning. He said, "The cushioning and the fit of the shoe were great, but I had problems when coming to a stop. Like the Barricade 6, my toes would jam into the end of the shoe on all my quick stops."
Mark has always found Barricades to be comfortable, and this version was no exception. He said, "I never had an issue with the toe box portion in any version of the Barricade. The new 7 has no seams in the forefoot area and I continued my good fortunes with no issues. The barricade 7.0 is comfortable for me, but I would say that the materials they used to increase the comfort in this shoe felt more spartan when compared to the materials used in prior models."
Though the upper of the 7 has less mesh than past iterations, it still breathed well enough for our testing squad. The shoe had enough perforations for moisture management in Mark's mind. He said, "Previous models of the Barricade made more use of mesh in the upper, so when I first looked at this shoe I wondered how good the ventilation would be. Kudos to adidas, though. The tongue, the vamp, and both the lateral and medial portions at the rear of the shoe have plenty of perforations for heat and moisture management."
Spencer felt there was room for improvement. He said, "There was some ventilation, but there is room for more breathability. It wasn't anything I couldn't deal with, though."
Jason found enough ventilation, saying, "The mesh and perforations in the upper allowed the shoe to breathe enough to keep my feet from overheating. It did just enough -- no more, no less."
Jose experienced some warmth. He said, "The uppers do not have a lot of mesh, causing my feet to heat up. It was not as bad as I first imagined the ventilation could be, but I do like mesh on my shoes to help keep my feet dry."
Most of our playtesters had to wear the shoes a few times before the arches were comfortable. Jose was one of those testers. He said, "I didn't have a major issue with the arch support, but I did feel the arch was a bit high when I first put them on. It became much less noticeable after they were broken in."
Spencer felt the arch was a bit out of place. He said, "As mentioned in the comfort section, the arch seemed to sit forward in the shoe, causing some blistering during the first couple of wears. It did break in after that, and I don't notice it now."
Jason agreed with Jose and Spencer. He said, "Even though the upper really didn't require a break-in, I felt like the arches did. For the first 4-5 wears I could really feel the arch, and it made my arches sore. I think it's partly because of the medium arch and partly because it's located a bit more forward than usual. Eventually, though, the arches wore down enough that I could play without thinking about it too much."
Mark experienced no issues, saying, "In terms of width and arch height, my foot is pretty middle of the road, so to speak. The arch height of the barricade 7.0 was low for my foot but was substantial enough for me to move around without any issue during or after play."
The Barricades are known for their support and stability, and the 7 didn't disappoint. Predictably, Jason was impressed. He said, "Once again, there was impressive stability from a Barricade shoe. Like previous versions, this one offers great lateral stability for even the most aggressive movements. I did have some sliding issues within the shoe when I tried to stop while moving forward. I think the sliding, along with the toe box, is what caused the blistering. I had 100 percent confidence in the shoe's ability to protect my ankles from rolling over."
Spencer enjoyed the trustworthy stability. He said, "Like many of the previous Barricades, the 7 provided top-notch stability and support. I am always trusting of Barricades when it comes to lateral stability, and this latest version is no different."
Fond of the support was Jose. He offered, "The shoe's best attribute would be its lateral support. It's been the best shoe I've worn all year. I felt very comfortable staying on the baseline and rallying, as well as playing defensively. I felt plenty of support for my ankles, which is great, as I've experienced a lack of support with many other shoes."
Mark found the low-to-the-ground ride enhanced the stability even more. He said, "The barricade 7.0 seemed different in a number of ways compared with previous iteration. One difference was the new version keeping my heel closer to the court. This was an aspect that I really liked. My side to side movement was improved by having my feet in closer contact with the court, reducing my chance of rolling an ankle, which was a minor gripe I had with prior Barricades. The 7's upper is supportive, yet pliable enough to accommodate foot widths that are not extremely narrow."
None of our testers could deny that the barricade 7.0 lives up to its legacy as the ultimate hard court shoe. Finding excellent durability, Spencer said, "The durability was very typical of a Barricade. It lived up to what I expected. adiWEAR6 provides an excellent combination of grip and longevity, and provided more than enough durability for my hours on court."
Jason had no new words to describe the excellent durability of the Barricades. He said, "What else can be said about the durability of a Barricade that hasn't already been said? I put about 20 hours on my pair and only see slight balding on the medial forefoot and heel. It would be tough for me to wear them out in six months to take advantage of the durability guarantee."
Feeling the 7 to be consistent with previous versions was Jose. He said, "Over the years the Barricade line has been known for its durability on the hard courts. This model is no different, and I find it to be one of the most durable shoes on the market."
Mark felt this Barricade offered better durability than most other shoes. He said, "The barricade 7.0 is more durable than most sole warranty shoes. I play around 15 hours per week, and as with most of my tennis shoes, the forefoot portion is where I had the most wear. After almost two months of use the shoe still has some life left."
The playtesters who are toe draggers agreed that the toe bumper did its job well. Finding optimal abrasion resistance was Jose. He said, "The toe guard on this shoe is excellent. The thick layer that adidas adds to the shoe makes it possible for all toe draggers to have optimal durability."
Mark finds no shoe to be bulletproof, but felt the 7 held up well. He said, "I tend to wear out that area of the shoe, and the barricade 7.0 showed the same sort of wear, albeit over an extend length of time."
The barricade 7.0 offers a high level of traction -- especially impressive considering the durability of the outsole. Jason was happy with the amount of traction he was finding. He said, "For a shoe with such tremendous durability I'd expect the rubber to be quite dense and firm, and not as traction oriented. But the barricade 7.0 gripped the court very well. A sudden change of direction is the benchmark I use to rate a shoe's traction, and this pair performed almost flawlessly. There was very, very slight slippage that really didn't affect the outcome of the point. "
Jose liked the response when starting and stopping. He said, "Just like the support, the traction was excellent on the barricade 7.0. It responded well when stopping and starting. However, the combination of good tack and my feet sliding forward when stopping quickly caused my toes jam into the tip of the shoe."
Mark felt the barricade 7.0 stopped well. He said,"On our indoor court the barricade 7.0 stops on an electron, and on our area's municipal courts, which tend to have some dirt on them, the shoe still performed well, but required a bit more stopping distance."
Feeling the outsole needed a short break-in was Spencer, saying, "It took about 15-30 minutes to get the outsole 'seasoned.' Sometimes outsoles need a little court time to get roughed up for better traction. That was the case here. After 30 minutes the outsole responded with excellent traction, in typical Barricade fashion. It seemed to only get better as the testing went on."
Though it offers plenty of substance, this Barricade also offers a nice balance of weight for good mobility on court. Mark felt he could get around the court efficiently. He said, "Officially, these new Barricades are only 0.2 ounces lighter than the previous model, but they seem even lighter, which may have something to do with the heel being a little closer to the ground. I was able to get around the court swiftly and comfortably."
The weight didn't register with Spencer. He said, "It seems the Barricade line gets better and better when it comes to weight. Though I felt plenty of support and stability, I didn't feel the weight that usually goes along with it. There's plenty of substance, but not so much that I felt sluggish on court."
Jason didn't feel the weight affected his movement. He said, "When a shoe can provide the durability and support that the barricade 7.0 can, I don't expect it to be lightweight. And even though this version does feel slightly lighter than the previous one, it still think it's a shoe with some heft. I could definitely notice the weight of the shoe while walking down to the court, but once playing, it didn't affect me."
As someone who is used to the weight of Barricades, Jose said, "With such a durable shoe it's almost impossible to make it light, so I knew going into the test that this shoe was going to be on the heavy side. A thick sole adds expected mass to the shoe."
Spencer - "The support and stability, along with the more classic 3-Stripe cosmetic."
Jason - "The stability, durability and traction."
Jose - "The stability and durability is great on this shoe. It's one of the most durable shoes I have worn. I wore the shoe for about two months, and it was hard for me to see much wear. The support and traction are excellent."
Mark - "Function wise, the 7 was borderline incredible with the lower to the ground ride (compared to previous Barricades), and the overall performance/ fit of the barricade 7.0 helped provide lots of quality time on the tennis court without any post-match foot pain."
Spencer - "The location of the arches in the shoes didn't line up with the arches in my feet. Thus, blisters."
Jason - "I still would like to see a Barricade that can accommodate a wider foot."
Jose - "The toe jamming! Coming to a quick stop really hurt my toes."
Mark - "They do look a bit more plastic-like with the lack of mesh, and the change in the 3-Stripes looks a bit like thick zip ties, so my criticism comes more in the form of aesthetics, rather than function."
Spencer - "I would say it's similar to the Barricade 6, but easier to break-in. And the way the arch sat too forward in the shoe reminded me of the CC Genius."
Jason - "It's like the Barricade 6, but lighter, more comfortable and required less break-in."
Jose - "Like a Barricade 6, but with a more open toe box area."
Mark - "Out of the multitude of shoes that I have worn/ tested here, I regard the new barricade 7.0 as a top five high performance tennis shoe. They are in the realm of the Nike Court Ballistic 3.3/4.3, Asics Gel Resolution, Babolat Propulse and Prince T22."
Playtester Foot Types:
Spencer - Medium width / Medium arch

I enjoyed reading those stories. On the post about processing, the tea process information was useful, but some of the statements about chemicals ranged from correct to very incorrect. For example, chlorophyll does not break down into tannin (and certainly wouldn't do it just by heating). And at some point, I'll have to read more about the Hojo claim about vacuum sealing pu'erh... to be honest, it sounds very dangerous. Some microbes become quite deadly when put in an oxygen-free environment... (I know that wasn't the point of the blog post, but kind of hard to ignore).

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
There have been times this season when the Emery High Spartans have had their opportunities to win but didn't. With a little luck, the Spartans season record right now would have been better had they simply played all 32 minutes of a game instead of disappearing at times that allowed their opponents to take advantage. But last Friday night in Mt. Pleasant against the Hawks of North Sanpete, Emery finished the game, got the win and finished third in region 8.
Against the Hawks, Emery played all 32 minutes and came home victorious 68-60. Emery led by 1 point after the first quarter and by that same 1 point at the half. In the third quarter, Emery broke open a close game to lead by nine points at the end of the third. Against the Hawks, a team that had defeated Emery earlier in the year in Castle Dale, Emery maintained their composure and basketball skills and tonight got the victory.
This was a game marked by fouls, a lot of fouls and not only fouls by Emery. In this game, North Sanpete joined the Spartans in fouling and the two teams shot 70 free throws. This made for a long game. Emery was 30 of 40 at the free throw line while the Hawks were 20 of 30.
With the win, Emery finished third in region play behind Juan Diego and Delta and ahead of Carbon. With the loss, North Sanpete gets left out of state ball games this season. Emery now will travel to Logan this Friday and play the Grizzlies for the right to advance to the 3-A State tournament in St. George next week. Logan finished the season at 17-3 while Emery finished the season at 10-10 with Monday's game against Uintah still to go in the total. That game was scheduled as a warm up to the play-in game. While Emery will be the underdog, Emery can win the game if they will finish it.
Dave Justice led the team in scoring with 35 points including making free throw after free throw in the final quarter. Dempsey Jeffs finished with 18 points but fouled out of the game in the fourth quarter. Skyler Jorgensen scored 8 points, Jordan Gee scored 6 points and Kyler Edgehouse scored 1 point.

I was driving home from taking my children to school last week. I stopped at a traffic light and looked to my right. I saw a women dressed in workout clothes. She had on a fancy stretch top, a headband, all the workout fashion. … Oh, and she was smoking a cigarette.
When I was growing up, smoking was not such a big deal. So many people smoked that we really didn't think much of it. But times have really changed. Everyone knows how smoking is a danger to your health. Everyone knows that it is not conducive to a healthy life style, so, seeing someone who is obviously trying to present herself as a healthy person, with a cigarette in her mouth, just doesn't look right.
I find it easy to believe she wants a healthy lifestyle and that she has made a commitment to working out. The problem with smoking is that one cigarette will have almost no effect on your health. It is the accumulation of just one cigarette over a lot of years that will do you in.
So, if one cigarette isn't bad for you and you want only one cigarette right now, then it is easy to make that bad choice.
Investing can be like that. We often know what we need to do to reach our long-term goals. We need to put a certain amount of money in our children's accounts. We need to put a certain amount of money in our retirement accounts. We need to put a certain amount of money back for a rainy day.
Then we say to ourselves, "Well, if we take our kids to Atlantis for Spring Break instead of putting that money in their 529 plan, it's still for the kids." Or, "Why do I have to wait until retirement to enjoy retirement? I could do a little early retirement at a golf course in Arizona right now!"
And, of course, it is important to remember that a 60-inch flat screen TV does not qualify as a necessary purchase from your emergency account.
Every time that emotion comes into play in an investment plan, the path to success becomes more dangerous. Successful investors have found a way to put emotion aside and stick with a good long-term plan. Contrary to what many people believe, it is not hard to come up with a good long-term investment strategy. It is very hard to stick with it.
I have long said that advisers don't get paid to come up with a good plan; they get paid to stop you from messing it up.
So, if you are going to talk the talk, then walk the walk. Put together a good long-term plan for your financial health and then quit smoking those financial cigarettes.

Donald Young will make his U.S. Davis Cup team debut in the 2014 opening round vs. Great Britain as he replaces an injured John Isner on the American squad.
Isner was forced to withdraw from the tie due to an ankle injury and U.S. Davis Cup Captain Jim Courier then nominated Young to take his spot in the lineup. Young, 24, was with the team as a practice partner. The two teams will compete on a clay court in the outfield at Petco Park, home of the San Diego Padres, in San Diego, Calif. Jan. 31 – Feb. 2.
Young, ranked No. 79 in the world, is fresh off a third round appearance at the 2014 Australian Open. He will lead off the tie for the U.S. against reigning Wimbledon champion Andy Murray in the opening singles match. Sam Querrey, the No. 1 singles player for the U.S., then will face James Ward.
