"Oh how I love these clogs! Realizing my old clogs were worn, out of style, and dirty, I decided to buy a new pair. I made a great choice. My feet fit absolutely perfect in these shoes. The best part is the shoes actually have arches in them! That's so tremendously amazing since I have bad feet and need to insert arches in most of my shoes. The style is casual-chic and really attractive. LOVE THEM!"

Well, it's no secret that we all love denim here. We love to wear it, shop for it, dig through our closets for it–you get the picture. It's also no secret that we love to look at it, especially in the many denim adverts we come across while thumbing through a magazine or browsing our favorite fashion sites and blogs. Oh, and we can't forget those astronomically large and attention-grabbing billboards that showcase them on a major level. From high-end designer denim to the more moderately priced, there is so much time, effort, and money that goes into these campaigns that ultimately serve to entice us. But what is it about them that intrigues us, really?
I think most would agree that more often than not it's the overall statement that does the trick. The lifestyle. The story that's persuading us to fall in love–and sometimes in lust–with the picture, and ultimately the product, which in this case would be our guilty pleasure, denim. But beyond the punchy images, the dash of humor, irony, art, and not to mention sensuality, what is it ultimately that reaches out to us that makes the whole thing so memorable? Think about it, what would your reaction be if all you saw up on a huge billboard was a pair of jeans on a hanger?
Ultimately what completes it all and breathes life into these campaigns are the muses! The models, actors, and celebs that add that final splash of a allure.
Let's face it, what would that iconic 1981 Calvin Klein Jeans campaign have been without Brooke Shields? "You want to know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing." Imagine, what impact would it have had if anyone else had said it? Of course we'll never know, but it was the teenage Shields who brought in that je ne sais quoi.
Needless to say this campaign created a recurring theme for the brand, which went on to be one of the most commercially successful designer labels for thirty years, and I think it's safe to say that it was in huge part thanks to Shields.
A decade later Klein set out to do it again. The muse this time: then 18-year-old Kate Moss. Moss appeared topless wearing CK underwear hitched over the waistband of her jeans. Also adding to this iconic campaign was the unequivocal star of ads, Mark Wahlberg who was better knows as Marky Mark at the time.
Moss has continued to be the muse for Calvin Klein to present day. The iconic 90s adverts and Moss changed the course of fashion single-handedly bringing in the age of grunge and what she's come to be infamously known for, the era of "heroin chic" a look characterized by pale skin and jutting bones and an androgynous appeal. A look which to today is still sought after by many designers, and which is still used as a source of inspiration.
It's safe to say that no one has been able to match the success that Moss has had, but one girl who had definitely given her a run for her title is none other than Erin Wasson. Not only does this native Texan have "the look" but she has the style and the attitude to have successfully earned her place as one of the hottest models in the world.
The original Model Off Duty, whose peculiar yet effortless style of sportswear meets grunge and haphazard taloring, has taken a hiatus from full-time modeling. Not to say she hasn't been the muse for many a campaign. The Maybelline New York spokesmodel has worked with every major international photographer and fashion designer and has graced the cover of Allure, French Vogue, and The Facejust to name a few. She was most recently in a multimedia campaign for denim brand William Rast in which she starred alongside co-owner of the brand Justin Timberlake. It must have been her Southern belle politeness and refinement yet devil-may-care attitude that landed her the part of Timberlakes love interest.
What's so great about Wasson is that she refuses to just be another face. She may not be a full-timemodel anymore but that's because she's got a heavy hand in the creative side of the fashion world as a designer for RVCA designing her own line of low-key, chic grunge looks (including a denim range) rightfully called Erin Wasson x RVCA proving that a muse goes beyond only selling you that one pair of jeans on a billboard. What really gets us and intrigues us about them is their passion and infatuation for creating this world and culture we all love called fashion. The jeans are just an added perk!
Do you have any denim muses? Share with us, we'd love to know!

I've received some comments from people asking us to pull Rush after recent comments he made that got him in some hot water.
I find it interesting that all the comments have come from people that do not listen to Rush, or KNSS. Look, I don't listen to Bill Maher, but I'm not going to call HBO to shut him up because I don't agree with him.
More free speech: the better we are. It's the speech we do not agree with that we should most protect.

Students at Truman and Bode Middle Schools spent the end of their school day by walking to Central High School.
All week, they have been raising money for a the Focus Empowerment Group.
Some of the money came from t-shirt sales that show a green ribbon with the phrase "1N4."
The message signifies the amount of children who are diagnosed with a mental illness.
"Just raising awareness about children's mental health and what needs the children in our community really have," said Sarah Dudeck, a counselor at Truman Middle School.
Students were able to raise more than $400 for the organization.

Ingomar salutes Ashley
The scene at Ingomar's gym on Sunday afternoon was much like what fans have come to expect over the last 41 years. A good crowd, heated gym and Norris Ashley, off to the side, wiping away sweat with his towel.
Only this time, the long-time coach was not barking out orders to his players, rather it was the community coming out to pay respect to the man who led the school to nine state titles; the one who just a month ago decided to step away from the game after coaching for a total of 43 years.
"All of this is hard to put in words," Ashley said. "When I originally came here, my old high school coach told me this would be a good place to stay for a year until I found a better place to go. I never found a better place to go."
Ingomar celebrated Ashley's career with a retirement reception, giving fans and former players a chance to share their fondest memories with the one who helped make it happen. As those in attendance watched a slideshow, recapping his 41 years at the school, Ashley took it all in, giving valuable time to each person who stood in line to speak with him. Also off to the side was his son, Jonathan, who is preparing to take over for his father.
"I'm glad that Jonathan sees that the Ingomar people are very supportive," Ashley said. "Ingomar has always supported both academics and athletics, they strive for success and achieves success. I hope it stays that way, where they expect the best out of the kids both in the classroom and on the court and field."
While reflecting on his time at Ingomar, Ashley noted the people he was most thankful for, his wife, along with former Ingomar principal John Weeden, who first hired Ashley.
"I appreciate having John Weeden as a principal, giving me freedom to do what I wanted. He trusted me, and I trusted him," he said. "I appreciate my wife's support over the years. It's tough being a coach's wife, because you tend to only hear negative things in the stands. I've had great parents and players, and they expected me to do my best, and I expected them to do their best. It all worked out pretty well, I hope."
As the afternoon came to a close, so did the final chapter of Ashley's time at Ingomar. As he makes the move from the sidelines to the stands as a fan, he had only one final remark.
"The people of Ingomar trusted me with their children. Hopefully I taught them a little about basketball and maybe a little about living. Hopefully I didn't disappoint them."

Dear Terry, I am looking to relocate my toilet in my 1st floor flat. In its new location, i will need to pass the waste pipe over 1, possobly 2 joists to reach the soil stack on the outside of the house. The joists are 8" by 2" and the waste pipe is 4" diameter. Can you tell me whether it is safe to remove half of the joist. Should i drill a 4" hole in the centre of the joist? Should the hole be in the centre of the joist span or towards the end i.e by the exterior wall.Please help, your advice would be very appreciated.

Evan Bayh graduated from Indiana University in 1978 and earned a law degree from the University of Virginia in 1981. Five years later he was elected as secretary of state for Indiana, and two years after that he was elected governor. Only 33 at the start of his first term, he served as governor from 1989-97, then ran successfully for the Senate in 1998. An early and strong supporter of the Iraq War, he was reelected in 2004. Bayh made a brief run for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination, then was named as a potential running mate for nominee Barack Obama. (Obama chose Joe Biden instead.) Bayh's 2003 autobiography was titled From Father to Son: A Private Life in the Public Eye.
Extra credit:
Bayh married the former Susan Breshears in 1985. She is also a lawyer. Their twin sons, Birch Evans Bayh IV (called Beau) and Nicholas Harrison Bayh, were born in 1995. In his autobiography, Bayh says that "Harrison comes from William Henry Harrison, a distant relation on my father's side of the family"… Bayh's official Senate site says he was born in Shirkieville, Indiana, but his autobiography states that he was born "in Terre Haute's Union Hospital, on the day after Christmas." Shirkieville, where the Bayh family had a farm, is about 15 miles northwest of Terre Haute.

VMAX3 + zDP: THE WORLD'S 1ST DASD WITH PROTECTION FROM LOGICAL CORRUPTION
TRUSTED VMAX3 and VMAX ALL FLASH STORAGE
Solution Description
Mainframe environments run extremely demanding mission-critical operations and are critically dependent on High Availability DASD and virtual tape storage. Expertise to manage to manage enterprise-class storage is declining while new data from mobile applications is being stored on the mainframe is increasing. This creates a situation that that is becoming harder to manage with traditional storage.
EMC mainframe solutions, VMAX3, VMAX All Flash, Disk Library for mainframe, and Connectrix family are trusted in mainframe environments to deliver the highest levels of innovation, performance, and availability.
The EMC VMAX family VMAX3 and VMAX All Flash family are high-performance, highly available and reliable storage solutions for mainframe environments. The VMAX3 is a hybrid array, supporting a mix of both spinning and flash drives for both open and mainframe workloads with three models: 100k, 200k and 300k. The 100K scales up to 2TB of cache and 1,440 drives while the VMAX 400K is in a class by itself providing the highest levels of performance and scaling up to 16TB of cache and 5,760 drives. With Enterprise Flash Drives and Fully Automated Storage Tiering for Virtual Pools (FAST VP), the VMAX3 family automatically optimizes performance for all mainframe applications at the lowest TCO.
The new VMAX All Flash models are the fastest performing EMC DASD with just a single storage tier. Model 450F scales up to 8TB of cache and 960 flash drives while the model 850F scales up to 16TB of cache and 1,920 flash drives.EMC array-based replication products are recognized industry-wide as delivering the best availability. SRDF and TimeFinder are foundational technologies to ensure high availability, while AutoSwap and Geographically Dispersed Disaster Restart (GDDR) provide continuous availability and automate disaster restart for mainframe environments.
EMC Disk Library for mainframe (DLm) is the industry's first complete, self-contained tape-on-disk system for use in mainframe environments. It's unique in that it concurrently supports primary and deduplication storage in a single, manageable solution and dynamically directs tape files to the most appropriate storage on a file-by-file basis. The DLm supports all mainframe tape use cases resulting in significant savings on data center floor space without compromising data protection, reliability, performance, or functionality. The latest release of DLm incorporates a feature called "Global Virtual Library (GVL)". GVL enables two DLms to have visibility as well as read-write access to tape cartridge volumes contained in either the local or remote library. Additionally, GVL enables tape workload balancing between two DLms and provides for the swapping of production and disaster recovery site DLms for any user-defined period of time.The EMC Connectrix family offers a wide range of FICON directors with the latest 16Gb connectivity and best TCO.

Loooooooooooooooove it!
"OMG! I absolutely love these shoes, they are so comfortable, I can wear them all day. I love the color(black) has well. I wore it the same day I got it in the mail. The only issue is that my right foot is a tad smaller than my left, but got some padding for the back. I'm DEFINIETLY not sending these shoes back for my foot issues"

I might try again
"When the shoes arrived, I wasn't 100% sure if I liked them. They definitely have a unique look to them (to include the shape of the toe). So, when I went to try them on, the one heel snapped clean off. Needless to say, I had to return the pair I ordered. However, I did try on the non-broken one and did like the way it looked. It also wasn't uncomfortable from the 60 seconds I had it on. I really want a pair of black pumps that aren't your basic, boring heels. These might be worth ordering again...."

TUPELO – Mayor Jack Reed Jr. issued today the first veto of his administration, opposing the Tupelo City Council's decision to allow a car dealership to install a sign twice the size allowed by city regulations.
The council voted 4-3 Tuesday, narrowly siding with request from Carlock Toyota to allow a sign larger than any other displayed in the Barnes Crossing shopping area.
The city's planning department and planning commission opposed the larger sign.
In his veto message, Reed said allowing the 48-foot-tall and 170-square-foot wide sign for the company would have created an unfair advantage and could have jeopardized attractiveness of the area.
For the council members to override Reed's veto, five council members would need to oppose it, requiring at least one councilman to change his mind.

List five manga you like to read and what songs you like to listen to while reading them. Tell us why. They don't have to be your top five, just list any manga you read and songs you like to listen to while reading them.
1) Veritas - Phenomenon by Thousand Foot Krutch
Veritas has a lot of good fight scenes and the main character is a unique beast. His way of never giving up is inspirational rather than lame. Getting back to the fights the battles in this manga are far more vicious than in more popular titles like Naruto and Bleach. Phenomenon is the perfect battle music that let's your opponents know who you are and what you're about.
2) Naruto - Pain by Three Days Grace
Something of a no brainer. Pain is my all-time favorite manga character and I have all the chapters of Naruto with him in it. Whenever I go back to witness his battle with Jiraiya or see him curbstomp Naruto I blast Three Days Grace.
3) Fairy Tail - I Came To Play by DownstraitWhen Natsu or Gazille start whooping that ass, it's a no-brainer. Great thing about the song is that it can be applied to either of them. Listen to it once and tell me it's not one of The Most BADASS songs ever made.
4) RAVE - Mind Garden by Tetra-Fang
While Fairy Tail is certainly the better of the two, RAVE does have a great deal of action, excitment, and emotion. A lot of things happen in this story that really hit you where you'll most vulnerable. Mind Garden really brings that out. Try listening to this while watching Haru battle it out with Doryu after we learn everything about Doryu's past. Turns the entire battle upside down.
5) ONE PIECE - Attack by 30 Seconds to MarsSorry. There is an actual video for this and it's pretty good but I didn't want to support VEVO or incourage Youtube as they sell out. Anyway, this is more or less the theme song for pretty much anytime the Straw Hats had to rescue anyone. It's impossible to listen to this song and not understand the emotional gravity of One Piece.

I saw this coming miles away XP the Shinigami demonstrates a new power, having the upperhand, but then the sternritters werent that easy to beat and now they have the upperhand and stuff. but then again the shinigami will now have despair but will again somehow regain the upperhand and so on til one of them dies. I was also put off by the offsetting of Yama-Jis flames. And wow everyone seems to hate Toshiro here, I know he got bad fame but why was it again? was it because of the fangirls? or because he always seem to die or because he has a somewhat cocky nature? xP
I just gotta say I LOVE that sternritter who is facing Soi Fon. hes just badass, I love his design, his weapons and the mystery surrounding him, specially since they showed that "eye" shining inside of the helmet. is he a robot? or a scientifically altered sternritter? a dead walking machine of war?

SALTILLO – So far in this young baseball season, the Amory Panthers and Saltillo Tigers had split a pair of 1-0 contests.
On Thursday, the visiting Panthers cranked up their offense to avert another close decision.
Amory pitcher Destin Hahn delivered seven strong innings while the Panthers' bats posted 14 hits en route to a 7-1 victory in action at the Saltillo Spring Classic.
"Destin did a real good job of locating," Amory head coach Chad Williams said. "And he didn't throw as many pitches after the first inning.
"It finally feels good to have good pitching and good hitting in the same game."
Hahn scattered four hits in his complete-game effort, not allowing a run until the bottom of the seventh inning on an A.J. Rye double and Tory Gifford single. Saltillo did advance a runner to at least second base in every inning.
Meanwhile, the Amory offense scored runs in the second, third, fifth, and seventh frames, with leadoff batter Tanner Poole collecting four hits on the evening.
Cory Murphy had an RBI hit in the second to get Amory (5-2) on the board. That was followed in the third with RBI hits by Hahn and Jake Childs.
Childs had another run-scoring hit in the fifth, with Amory tacking on its final runs in the top of the seventh thanks to hits by Murphy and Poole.
"We had runners at second base every inning, and if we had scored those runs, it would have been 7-7," Saltillo head coach Johnny Bolen said. "We don't seem to be able to do it when it counts."
This was the third game that Saltillo pitcher Gifford had started against Amory, lasting through four innings in this outing. Hahn also has started all three of the Amory-Saltillo matchups this season.
Amory has a nice challenge today in the Saltillo tournament, facing North Pontotoc at 2 p.m., and Houston at 4 p.m.

Just like that, Japanese stocks are in correction territory, according to the conventional definition of a 10% drop from a recent high. A 20% drop — the bear-market threshold — isn't far off.
After a 4.2% slump to kick off February, the Nikkei 225 is down 14% in the new year. Chalk this one up to the yen knocking on 100 per dollar, which itself is related to hedge funds' unwinding of the yen "carry" trade.
Hedge funds' sudden risk aversion is itself a reflection of the market adjusting to a stingier Federal Reserve. Easy money from central banks has goosed investments in emerging markets, Japanese stocks and a range of risky assets — until lately that is. From Jonathan Burgos, Yoshiaki Nohara and Satoshi Kawan of Bloomberg News:
"The stronger yen is probably the main driver" of the bigger declines in Japanese stocks, Gary Dugan, who helps oversee about $53 billion as Singapore-based chief investment officer for Asia and the Middle East at Coutts & Co., the wealth management unit of Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, said by e-mail Jan. 30. "Investors are locking in profits as they back away from equities."
It has to be the Fed and the yen. It's certainly not Japan's domestic economy.
Here, "a host of very positive data coming out of Japan has been largely ignored by financial commentary," Marketfield Asset Management's Michael Shaoul wrote clients on Monday. Strong employment data, a jump in industrial production, and then on Monday, a positive reading on auto sales:
This morning saw the release of excellent vehicle sales data, with January sales totaling 292.4K, a gain of 27.5% YoY. This represents the largest January sales data since 1997, a measure of quite how strong sales were last month (see seasonal chart).
Of course we must throw in some caveats. January is not the most important month for sales, which more than typically register more than double in March and the trailing 12 month ma of sales is also yet to break out with its current reading of 277K no higher than that of February 2013. Additionally all consumption items are probably experiencing demand being pulled forward by the upcoming sales tax hike. However, even allowing for all the above we would view this morning's data as a genuine positive data point, particularly given that is comes amidst of a host of other indications that Japan's domestic economy is awakening.
Japan ETFs in the U.S. Tuesday aren't falling as hard as the home market overnight (They did plenty of declining on Monday). WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity fund (DXJ) is down by 1%. iShares MSCI Japan Index fund (EWJ) is down by 1.2%.
ProShares UltraShort Yen (YCS), down nearly 8% in 2014, is ahead by 0.9%. db-X Trackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF (DBJP) is off by 0.8% and WisdomTree Japan SmallCap Dividend ETF (DFJ) is down by 2.3%.

Last week the Emery High wrestling team had matches with American Leadership Academy and Grand High and came away with huge wins. The final scores were Emery 66-0 over ALA and 58-19 over Grand. Just about every Emery wrestler that won did so by a pin against the two schools.
The win over Grand was especially satisfying because just a week ago the two schools met at the Carbon duels and Emery won by a score of 46-36. The Spartans evidently are getting a little better with practice.
Spencer Fehlberg leads the Spartans this season with a record of 9-0 and Clay Collard with a record of 11-2 is right behind. Caleb Jones and Zac Walls have records of 10-3.
Emery will host Carbon this week and the times have been switched. The JV will now wrestle at 5:15 p.m. and the varsity will go at 5:45 p.m.
Time changes are due to the choir concert which will begin at 7:30 p.m. at Emery High. The school encourages everyone to support the wrestlers and the choir concert.
Wrestling and choir concert on Dec. 17.

Sharks @ Canucks: Game 2 Preview
Thomas Drance
May 03 2013 10:56AM
All eyes will be on Luogno, as usual, in game 2.
Photograph by: (John Lehmann/The Globe and Mail)
It didn't take long for the Canucks to get their backs up against the wall in the 2013 playoffs. Teams have come back from 2-0 deficits in a playoff series in the past, hell it happens every second year or so, but usually that team is the road team. Vancouver's already lost home-ice advantage, and the outlook for this series will turn grim if the team loses again on Friday night...
If they hope to avoid that fate, they'll need to generate more quality looks and test Niemi. The Canucks only challenged Niemi with five difficult shots on Wednesday night, a paltry number and not nearly enough, especially when you consider that none of those shots came in the third period of a tied playoff game.
Read past the jump for more.
Broadcast Info:
Puck Drop: 7 PM PST
Television: TSN
Radio: Team1040
The Sedin line was pretty much completely shutdown against the Sharks on Wednesday night, and Vancouver will be in tough if that happens again. It would be great if Alain Vigneault could get them a few additional shifts against Sharks defensive pairings that didn't include Marc-Edouard Vlasic, but at the same time it's on the twins to be better regardless of their matchup. Vlasic and Braun looked well prepared for the Sedins against the grain, corss-seam trickery on Wednesday night, so hopefully the Sedins can be a bit more unpredictable on Friday.
The major roster change for the Canucks will include bumping Ryan Kesler to the wing on the second line, where he'll flank Derek Roy and Chris Higgins on the left-wing. The Canucks need to generate more offense against San Jose, and to that end I tend to like move a fair bit. Conceptually Kesler playing the wing just makes sense to me. He hasn't been able to really drive play as a centre since his return from injury, but playing him with Derek Roy and Chris Higgins will help on that front. As a winger, Kesler can focus on just getting in and laying the body while forechecking, and look to generate chances coming off the wing with that wrist shot of his. If he's been watching any Washington Capitals games this season, he may want to fake the wrister- and go to the backhand as Ovechkin has been doing all season if he gets the opportunity too...
With Derek Roy joining the top-six, I tend to think Vancouver's third and fourth lines will be in tough. They played relatively well on Wednesday, but that was with Roy on the third line and Lapierre on the fourth. With those two moving up a line, more of the burden falls on guys like Mason Raymond and Andrew Ebbett who have underwhelmed for most of the season. I wouldn't be surprised to see Vancouver's top-six take it to the opposition while the bottom-six spends the majority of the game penned in Vancouver's end.
The defence-pairings will remain the same, and rightly so since they played pretty well on Wednesday. It would be great if Dan Hamhuis and Jason Garrison could see more action, I don't think they were sufficiently utilized on Wednesday. I'd also suggest that Corrado and Alberts should see fewer minutes on Friday night, and hopefully be a bit more exhaustively protected in terms of the matchups...
The Canucks need to score more goals and beyond bumping Kesler to the wing alongside Derek Roy, there are a couple of additional buttons that might be worth pressing if this game is close going into the latter half of the second period and the third. Vancouver's best offensive pairing this season was Alex Edler and Jason Garrison, and Vigneault may want to consider uniting them on a pair that caddy's the Sedin twins. Also how about putting Jason Garrison's cannon shot on the first unit power-play? Just a thought...
The key for the Canucks tonight will be for the Sedins to play better, for the team as a whole to play more disciplined, and to not get their teeth handed to them in the faceoff circle. Even though Kesler is ostensibly lining up as a winger on Friday, expect him to take the bulk of defensive-zone draws for that line. Moving Lapierre up the lineup should help the team in the face-off circle as well.
Face-off matters, but discipline is more important, especially against the meat grinder that is the San Jose power-play. Younger players like Dale Weise and Zack Kassian in particular are going to need to check themselves and stay calm in limited minutes on Friday.
Cory Schneider is still out of the lineup so Roberto Luongo gets the start. If all else fails the Canucks will be counting on him to steal a game for them. Vancouver's goalie kept Vancouver in the game in the first period, but he came a bit unglued in the third frame. Overall he played well enough for the team to win, but he'll need to be better as well on Friday night.
Consider the following bets for tonight's game:
Ryan Kesler to score the first goal at nine-to-one odds. Ryan Kesler's line should come out buzzing on Friday, and I like his chances of opening the scoring in this one [PLACE YOUR BET HERE]. Even better, Play Now is currently offering a "Bet-Back Bonus" so if the Canucks surrender the first goal against but come back to win anyway, Play Now will refund all first scorer bet (up to $100) in game two. Seems like a worthwhile way to hedge your bet, eh? MORE DETAILS HERE.
Big Help from Bieksa. There's a special bet tonight, priced at 6.00, that you can win if Bieksa scores a goal and the Canucks win. Bieksa has scored goals at an absurd rate all season long, and if Vancouver is looking to push the tempo on Friday you can rest assured that he'll be aggressive in activating all game long. Also it's worth remembering that Bieksa loves to play against the Sharks. PLACE YOUR BET HERE.
Leaning on the Tendy's. If the Canucks win and both teams score under 5.5 goals you can win this special. Seems to me that this is a pretty safe bet to take if you already think Vancouver comes out of game two with the victory. This bet is priced out at 2.50 so PLACE YOUR BET HERE.

"...but he came a bit unglued in the third frame..."
Huh? I guess it is his fault that he was screened on one goal and boxed in by two players on the other?
The Canucks biggest problem is they are playing to not lose rather than playing to win. It's time for AV to loosen the reigns and let the horses run. Move Kesler on to Roy's wing, put Schroeder between Hansen and Raymond, and for god sakes get the Sedins away from Thornton or Pavelski and get them out against some weaker competition. I know it would be a tall order to ask Schroeder/Hansen/Raymond to match up against one of SJ's top lines but thats why the Nucks have two world class goalies. They aren't going to win scoring 1 or 2 goals per game they have got to find a way to crank it up and a lot of that comes down to AV and his matchups he has to find a way to out coach McLellan and get the Sedins and Kesler scoring or the Canucks are done.
I dont think i agree with you that Edler and Garrison has been the best D pairing.
The problem with the PP is that Edler is driving the play too often. They should just have Garrison and Corrado on PP1.. Corrado/Tanev would just tee up Garrison on their off-hands... Meanwhile Edler can roam free with Burrows, Roy and whoever on PP2.
Also.. i did like Raymond-Schroeder-Hansen together but Raymond's fkn useless. Its fine if you dont hit IF you score.. but he does neither.
So why not just bench Raymond... and load up some toughness on the bottom six. We already have the Sedin line that doesnt hit.
Kassian-Schroeder-Hansen Sestito-Lapierre-Weise
Let Kassian make more plays.. he's too busy trying to set up Kesler.. If i can read it, i'm sure the Sharks can read his plays.. let the guy play more independently.. and Schroeder sees the ice very well.. but u know wat.. its going to fall on deaf ear's cuz Coach V is not a risk taker... and well, if he doesnt pass the 1st Round.. ADIOS.
and for gawd's sakes, stop playing Ebbett..
If the Sedins don't start creating some offence, we should put Kassian on their line and load up the 2nd and 3rd with Kesler-Burrows and Roy-Higgins
The reason why the Canucks can't win is because they suck, plain and simple. The have a sub par team, a subpar coach, a sub par GM, sub par scouting, sub par everything. 43 years of not winning anything says I'm correct. The worse are that their delusional fans who keep this mickey mouse team going. Why anyone would want to pay to see such an embarrassment is beyond me, you would think when you pay for something you're supposed to get something of equal value in return..well not the Canucks, they;'ve taking sucking to an all new level on they can exceed.
It's play off time again and the Sedins sure enough have activated their powers of invisibility. Alex Error as usual is playing on the wrong team, Raymond and Burroughs are back to their usual " do nothingness" This list goes on and on. If there is a any kind of winning trend or stat,leave it to the Canucks to buck it.
I live in the city and the team is an utter embarrassment, and so are its stupid fanbase, who clog up traffic and create accidents, all so they can get to the arena faster to watch their team play like a joke. If the league took turns to win the cup, they'd have one by now, but 43 years of futility is written on the wall, and anyone who thinks otherwise is the only reason why such a bad team and management is allowed to exist and go on embarrassing themselves.
Even Carolina has won and cup, and they grow sugar cane there. The best Canuck was Bure, and look at how they pissed him off. From Smyl to the country clubbers linden, lumme, quinn and mclean , to naslund and now the sisters, they need to be put out of their misery. They've become a laughing stock and a disgrace. And all theyre doing is wasting more time, year after year, day after day, living on false hope. Luongo, the team, and esp the management, once a loser always a loser. And if anyone disagrees, well 43 years of sucking proves you wrong...again...43 times later. Get ready for 44.

David Kahn is a name well-known to denim lovers. The designer jeans company was originally launched in 1999 to cater to a market that was flooded with tops, yet shy of bottoms for women. It quickly grew a following but it wasn't until it's re-launch in the Spring 2011 under designer Bryan Boone that the collection embarked on it's journey into the contemporary premium denim market. He then added rich textures and colors, luxurious premium fabrics, new silhouettes and fashion forward elements—the fantastic fit remains. Read on for an exclusive interview!
Denim Therapy: Lets start from the beginning. How did you know you wanted to be a designer?
David Kahn Jeans: Denim has been such a great tool for me to show my creativity. I've been drawing and painting since I was young but now I just do all my ideas straight on to the jeans. The David Kahn brand has such a cult following that wanted newness and excitement. That's what I'm providing them with my collection.
DT: Do you have any pre-designing rituals?
DKJ: The inspiration for my collection has been brought on by great female bands and vocalists. So for the past seasons, it's me getting into a new muse's music.
DT: Describe the person who represents your ideal target customer—the customer you have in mind when you're planning a collection.
DKJ: The David Kahn woman is always on point with trends and knows her body and what works and what doesn't work for her.
DT: Can you give us hint about what's next?
DKJ: It's going to very earthy and happy!
DT: What are the most popular washes/fits in the line? What are your favorites, and how would you style them?
DKJ: My current favorite is our Brenda Skinny. Brenda is our new contemporary fit. My friend Jessica is super tall and typical "skinnies" only reach above her ankle. I wanted to do a true skinny. So we made it with a 34" inseam. Its super long! But its great for shorter girls too because they can wear a higher heel. Because it's on Japanese power stretch fabrication it contours to the body perfectly and adds a cool bunchiness look in the bottom. Some girls might like it cleaner so they can always get it hemmed.
DT: Do you have any favorite/least favorite denim trends right now?
DKJ: Drop crotch denim silhouettes don't really appeal to me.
DT: Street style and style blogs are huge in the industry right now as a source of inspiration, influencing the high end labels rather than vice versa. How much does street style influence your designing?
DKJ: Street style is definitely an important part of my inspiration. Seeing how individuals dress and outfit themselves sparks new ideas and it just grows from there.
DT: How many pairs of denim do YOU own?
DKJ: Less now. Probably 10-15.
DT: Favorite celeb wearing your brand?
DKJ: Definitely Fergie. She really knocked it out of the ball park with her Nikki Goldrush Wash, especially exciting since it was the brands first celeb spotting.
You can visit their website for a greater insight into the brand and "Like" them on Facebook as much as we do.

By JASON BAILEYSun Advocate/Progress Webmaster
Once you delve into the computer realm, you quickly discover that it is riddled with complex terms and acronyms. Some have jokingly called the phenomenon another language, calling it "techno-speak" or "computer-eze." There's no doubt the jargon can be confusing. However, understanding some of the basics, like how computers measure the amount of information they process or store, can make the technological environment a little more bearable.
Fundamentally, computers are great information machines. They process information, generate information, and store information. This information is measured in various units, which tell us how "big" or "small" piece of information is, or how much information a particular device (like a hard drive, floppy, CD-ROM, etc) will hold.
Documents you create on your computer are just collections of related information. A digital camera photo, for example, is just a series of information that describes (pixel by pixel) what the photo looks like. A letter you typed in your word processing program is just a collection of information that describes what you typed, and how you want it displayed (styles, colors, etc). A game CD contains all kinds of information that tells the computer how the game operates and what it will look like when it is played.
In the computer world, the smallest unit of measure is a "bit." A bit is the most fundamental unit and can only assume two possible values: one (1) or zero (0). Why? The answer can't be summed up in a mere paragraph, but it essentially boils down to your computer's processor (the "heart" of the computer) and how it works. In all reality, every piece of information that ever traverses your PC eventually boils down to binary values... ones and zeroes.
Individually, a bit is worth very little. Rather, the combination of bits is what makes the whole thing worth while. In larger combinations, these bits can make up things like typed letters, emails, and photos.
Although the bits themselves are composed of only ones and zeroes, the measuring of bits is done entirely in decimal. As a general rule, eight bits make up a byte. Or, alternatively, a byte is a combination of eight (8) ones (1's) and/or zeroes (0's). A byte might look like this: 10100101, or even this: 00000111. A byte could represent the letter "J" in a saved letter, or a red pixel in a picture.
A thousand and twenty-four (1,024) bytes combine to form a kilobyte. Although it sounds like a lot, a kilobyte is very small. Even several hundred kilobytes don't amount to much.
A thousand and twenty-four (1,024) kilobytes form a megabyte. A regular digital camera picture (saved in JPEG format) usually comprises a few megabytes. A 3�-inch floppy disc will hold nearly 1� megabytes (1.44, to be exact). For most users, the bulk of their saved documents are measured in kilobytes or megabytes.
A thousand and twenty-four (1,024) megabytes form a gigabyte. Today, nearly all computer hard drives measure their total storage capacity in gigabytes.
Interestingly, a thousand and twenty-four (1,024) gigabytes form a terabyte. A thousand and twenty-four (1,024) terabytes form a petabyte. And a thousand and twenty-four (1,024) petabytes form an exabyte.
You may have noticed that numbers like 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 and 1,024 show up a lot in the computer world. This is because these numbers are all multiples of 8 (divide evenly into eights), because of the 8-bit byte discussed earlier. This is also why 1,024 is often used between units instead of an even 1,000.
You may have also noticed that these units have metric-like names. However, although a kilometer is equal to a thousand meters, a kilobyte is not equal to a thousand bytes. Just remember, these units are NOT part of the metric system, even though they sound metric.
All-in-all, computers are amazing devices. They can process information faster and more accurately than we could ever imagine! When you realize a gigabyte contains well over 8 billion bits, its hard to imagine the number of bits in an exabyte! That's a whole lot of ones and zeroes!!!
