"I bought these shoes hoping I would be able to slip them on and off without having the undo and rebuckle the side buckle each time but found out this was impossible so i returned them. Since the strap is also very thin and sort of flimsy it makes the buckling more difficult and took a long time each time i tried to put on the shoe."

Did the Sedins "Lose a Step" Last Season?
Thomas Drance
November 05 2012 01:19PM
For a Stanley Cup starved fanbase that roots for an aging team, a team has come oh so painfully close without raising the ultimate mug, the "championship window" is a constant source of argument and scrutiny. I'd argue that not since the Hussites of the 14-hundreds, or more recently Bill Gates, has a single person or group of people ever been so preoccupied with "windows" in the history of human kind.
The most often cited reason for the Canucks' finite championship window is the age of the Sedin twins. The Sedins turned thirty-two in September (on the same day, if you can believe it!) and the list of players who've produced 100 point seasons after the age of 32 is very short indeed.
Some folks, even some folks who write at this blog, have looked at the twins' decline in production last season and have become convinced that the Sedin twins have begun to submit to the power of father time. But looking over the data from the past five seasons, I see little evidence that the Sedin twins have "lost a step" or that last season's slip in production represents the beginning of a downward trend in their NHL careers.
I'll explain myself at length after the jump.
Preamble and the Numbers
The following tables which I'll use to make my argument are extremely data heavy. But stay with me and I'll try to make the numbers as accessible as I can.
The tables start off with "Ozone Start%" a number that measures the frequency with which a player is deployed in the offensive end of the rink to begin his shift, against the frequency which that same player starts in the defensive end of the rink. This is an important metric for our purposes because the twins benefit more than any other players in the NHL from their club's strategic deployments.
From there we move onto Goals For (GF/60), Goals Against (GA/60) and Goal Differential (Diff) all expressed at a sixty minute rate (of even-strength ice-time). Think of these numbers as basically the Twins' "plus/minus" numbers for the past five seasons, except rated by the number of minutes they spend on the ice. The table also includes Shots For (SF/60), which is also rated by sixty even-strength minutes. I've included "Shots For" as a more "luck independent" measurement of the offensive efficacy of the Sedins over the past five seasons.
The table also includes "on-ice shooting percentage" (On-Ice Sh%), a wonderfully useful number that accounts for every shot the Canucks take with either Henrik or Daniel Sedin on the ice, and the percentage of those shots which result in goals. What's remarkable about On-Ice Sh% is that it's a very stable number, and the vast majority of NHL players will fall between 7% and 8.5% on-ice shooting over a large enough sample. The "outliers" on the top-end tend to be the players we'd all agree are the most talented offensive players in the world (Sidney Crosby leads the league in on-ice sh% over the past five seasons), while the outliers on the low-end are similarly the guys that you'd expect to find there (Rod Pelley, Daniel Winnick).
Finally the tables include the counting stats (goals+assists=points) for both twins at even-strength (ES points), on the power-play (PP points) and total points. Of course the tables also include the "Corsi" rate (expressed as a percentage) for both twins. Corsi is a metric that takes into account every shot, and also every "chance for a shot" that either team takes (so all goals for and against, all shots for and against, all missed shots for and against and all blocked shots for and against). These chances for shots, or "on-ice events" as hockey math nerds call them, correlate closely with zone-time. So we're including Corsi% this case as a proxy for puck possession. The higher a player's Corsi%, the more time that player spent in the opponents end of the rink generating chances (or chances at chances).
Still reading? God bless you. Here's the table for Henrik Sedin:
|Henrik Sedin
|Ozone Start%
|On-Ice Sh%
|ES Points
|PP Points
And here's the table for Daniel:
|Daniel Sedin
|Ozone Start%
|On-Ice Sh%
|ES Points
|PP Points
All of the numbers included in the above tables are sourced from behindthenet.ca, timeonice.com and nhl.com.
Our tables start in the 2007-08 season, the last time the Canucks missed the playoffs. That was a down year offensively for the twins, in fact, it was arguably their worst offensive season post-lockout.
While the twins' even-strength production was down from the season previous, their power-play production was solid. I'd also urge you to notice that at this point in his tenure as Canucks headcoach, Alain Vigneault hadn't begun to really specialize his deployment schemes yet.
In 2008-2009, the Sedin twins returned to being point-per-game players. Henrik Sedin also started more shifts in the defensive end of the rink than the offensive end, presumably for the last time ever. This was the first season of the "Mike Gillis era" and the team began to play a more uptempo game so it's not surprising that the twins increased their shot-rate. The Canucks' on-ice shooting percentage with the twins on the ice was also super-elite. As a result, the Sedins increased their point totals dramatically despite the fact that the team's power-play efficiency took a modest step backwards.
In 2009-10 the data begins to get really interesting. This is the first year that Alain Vigneault appears to have seriously massaged the Sedins' zone-starts in order to maximize their offensive-zone opportunities. As a direct result, their puck possession game improved significantly and they were able to generate shots at a higher rate than in the two seasons previous. In addition to their increasingly favorable deployment and their higher shots rates, the Sedins saw their On-Ice Sh% spike to an outrageous 13+%. Basically the Canucks were scoring a goal every 7.7 shots they took with the twins on the ice.
As a result of this correlation of factors, the twins' even-strength production spiked. Henrik Sedin managed 83 points at even-strength that season (and won the Hart Trophy and the Art Ross), while Daniel managed 64 points despite missing nearly twenty games. Sounds sustainable.
In 2010-11, the Canucks were a juggernaut. They won the President's Trophy and nearly won the Stanley Cup, falling sixty minutes and five goals short against the Boston Bruins in the Stanley Cup Final. During this season, a Sedin again led the NHL in scoring - though this time it was Daniel Sedin, rather than his brother Henrik.
As you can see from the Ozone Start% column, the twins' deployment radicalized further this season though their possession game didn't see much of a boost from their increasingly specialized usage. Their shot-rate was consistent enough with their shot-rate in 2009-10, and their even-strength percentages normalized to a large degree.
While the Twins' even-strength production plateaued in 2010-11, their power-play production increased considerably. During the 2010 offseason, the Canucks recruited Newell Brown to manage the club's special teams. On the power-play, he installed a modified Umbrella formation that features a lot of movement and pioneered the drop-pass zone-entry. The experiment was a massive success, and benefitted the twins' production enormously. Post-lockout the twins average roughly 30 power-play points each per season, but in 2010-11 Daniel exceeded that average by 12 points on his way to leading the NHL in scoring. Henrik Sedin exceeded his post-lockout average by 5 points.
This brings us to last season, 2011-12, where the Sedins saw their production dip to its lowest point since the Dave Nonis era. The twins' deployment continued to be specialized to an unprecedented degree, and they actually managed a sky-high shot-rate and were perpetually cycling their puck in their opponent's end of the rink. Their power-play production, however, took an expected step back (helped along by the league-wide trend of fewer power-play opportunities per game) and their percentages dipped back to mortal levels. Henrik Sedin remained a point-per-game player, while Daniel missed the last ten games of the season with a concussion but was on pace for 76 points.
Looking over the numbers I've compiled, I see minimal evidence that the Sedin twins began to show their age last season. In particular, their shot rate remained steady and their underlying numbers were as good as they had been at any point in the past five seasons (though their possession numbers are indisputably inflated by their usage).
If there is a trend in the above numbers, it's that the Sedins are very consistent with normalized percentages. Generally speaking they can be counted on to finish in the mid-to-high fifties/low sixties in even-strength points, while adding roughly twenty-eight power-play points per season. That makes them point-per-game players or thereabouts, which I'd argue is what they've always been.
The issue here, as it so often is, isn't that the Sedins took "a step back" last season. Rather it's that the expectations fans have for the twins' production were inflated by two straight outlier seasons. Henrik Sedin won the Art Ross in the 2009-10 season on the back of an unsustainably inflated on-ice shooting percentage, an outlier season from a consistent point-per-game player. The next season, however, his brother and linemate Daniel Sedin won the Art Ross on the back of an unsustainable spike in his power-play production.
In sports, we love the narrative. But the Sedins didn't suddenly "figure it out at thirty" and become super elite offensive talents. Rather, since the resumption of NHL hockey following the 2004-05 lockout, the Sedin twins have consistenty been what they continue to be: elite offensive talents, who produce at a point-per-game rate.
Moving Forward
The Sedin twins aren't speedsters, and they aren't freak physical specimens (beyond their fitness level, and ability to communicate telepathically). The twins rely on their chemistry, and superior cerebral grasp of the game to beguile opposing defenses and produce offense.
Their skills aren't going anywhere, and their physical tools aren't all that impressive anyway. Add in their commitment to fitness and the fact that a better understanding of nutrition and sports medicine is extending the careers of players across the board; and I tend to think that the twins may have a longer shelf life than conventional wisdom dictates.
Looking over my tables, however, I have a nagging feeling that Daniel Sedin may be in for a more precipitous drop in production than his brother over the coming seasons. In other words, I think there's basically no evidence in the above table that supports the hypothesis that Henrik Sedin is getting to the downswing of his career. Daniel, on the other hand, was on pace for well under 50 even-strength points last season...
Henrik has been more durable than his brother over the past five seasons, and unlike Daniel has no history of head injuries. Also, generally speaking, a playmaking centre tends to have a longer shelf-life in the NHL than a sniper who plays on the wing.
Again, I don't really see anything conclusive in the data, but we'll obviously have to watch this closely and reevaluate whenever NHL hockey is played again. At the moment, however, the notion that the effectiveness of the Sedin twins began to take a step backwards last season is misguided in my view and couched in a misunderstanding of their production spikes in 2009-10 and 2010-11.
Um...the "Penultimate Mug" was raised in 2011. It is the "ultimate" one they have failed to grasp.

Great read, thanks for posting. It always amazes me how even so-called reputable sports 'experts' don't seem to know the difference between 'losing a step' and a return to mean. I think you've done well to demonstrate that we are seeing the latter.
Despite the drop Henrik was still the highest scoring player in the western conference. Top 20 skaters in 2010-11 had on average 77,2p. In 2011-12 the top 20 scored on average 67,9p. Not sure about the cause (less pp:s?), but relative to the competion in the western conference it seems the twins did just fine.
Top 20 skaters in the western conference I mean...
"losing a step" and "regression to the mean" has the same meaning... "losing a step" is just lay-man term for it.
Great post. One quibble: not sure that Newell Brown pioneered the drop-pass PP zone entry. Babcock and McLellan had been using it for years before his arrival in Vancouver (it was repeatedly used by the Marleau/Thornton/Heatley/Weber/Boyle PP unit at the Olympics).

No, losing a step means they are slowing down. Hard to believe you don't get that.
November 05 2012, 11:10PM
Nobody thinks the Sedin's are physically slowing down when they are saying they are losing a step. Hard to believe that you don't get that

Impartial viewpoint: gotta go with Diehardnuck. "Losing a step" and "regression to the mean" are not at all the same thing. Losing a step would happen at the latter point of a career. For example, it would make no sense to say a 23 year old player is "losing a step". However, he could certainly "regress to the mean" after a statistically anomolous season.

Impartial viewpoint: gotta go with Diehardnuck. "Losing a step" and "regression to the mean" are not at all the same thing. Losing a step would happen at the latter point of a career. For example, it would make no sense to say a 23 year old player is "losing a step". However, he could certainly "regress to the mean" after a statistically anomolous season.
what kind of mean can a 23 year old hockey player establish? unless they started playing as a teenager, less than 5 years to establish a mean is ludicrous. a 23 year old player can lose a step from injury but yeah, whatever makes you happy
when people are talking about the Sedin's losing a step, they mean statistically because the Sedin's were never fast, ever.
Diehardnuck said about "losing a step" as "slowing down". nothing like what you are talking about, happening at the end of one's career.
I always thought that the "window closing" was in reference to the salary cap not to individual player ability. Salary cap sports are required to churn their rosters and keep bringing up cheap but effective players and only retaining key free agents.
Hence why Gillis is trying to target older, more "nhl ready" players in the draft because he needs someone in 1-2 years to replace a free agent who'll drop off the roster and not a 3-5 year prospect (silly Calgary with their High Schooler).
I would argue that "losing a step" is "a regression of mean" rather than "a regression to mean." For example if the Sedins have a mean of 60 points for the next five years then that would be indicative of them having "lost a step" because their mean (for that five year span) is lower then their previous mean. If they continue to be 80 point players, then their mean has not dropped and they cannot be accurately characterized as having "lost a step." Agree or disagree?

Sale have made four changes to their starting XV for Friday's Premiership clash with Northampton at Salford City Stadium.
Sale have made four changes, including a positional switch, to their starting XV for Friday's Premiership clash with Northampton at Salford City Stadium.
Amongst the backs Cameron Shepherd replaces Rob Miller at full-back while Johnny Leota, who returns from international duty with Samoa, takes over from Will Addison to partner Sam Tuitupou in the midfield.
Up front, Richie Gray, who is also back from Test action with Scotland, is in for Fraser McKenzie at lock and Richie Vernon and Andy Powell swap places in the back row with Vernon starting at number eight and Powell at blindside flank.
Meanwhile, Saints boss Jim Mallinder is buoyant after last Saturday's home win over London Welsh moved his team back into the Premiership's top four, just two points off top spot.
With just six points separating the league's top eight teams Mallinder said that every win matters, but that things will not be easy against a motivated Sale team.
"Sale have been getting some disappointing results this season and we're expecting them to be very motivated for tomorrow's game, especially with the return of John Mitchell to the club," he said.
"They have talented players who will no doubt be looking to prove a point, and after having won their last three home matches in all competitions they have developed a winning habit in Salford over the past month.
"We know we will have a big job on our hands, but all our focus this week has been on getting a good result on Friday night. This season the Aviva Premiership is more competitive than ever and every point matters. We have had two wins in the past two weeks and now we want to build on that tomorrow."
Form: Sale Sharks' solitary victory in their last ten Aviva Premiership Rugby encounters was 21-9 at home to London Irish on 2 November. Sale have won their last three games at Salford City Stadium in all competitions. Northampton Saints have won their last two games against Newport Gwent Dragons and London Welsh, whilst the Saints have lost their last two away games in the Premiership. The Sharks have won just one of their last seven clashes with the Saints: 29-21 at Edgeley Park on 23 September 2011.
The teams:
Sale Sharks: 15 Cameron Shepherd, 14 Charlie Amesbury, 13 Johnny Leota, 12 Sam Tuitupou, 11 Mark Cueto, 10 Danny Cipriani, 9 Dwayne Peel, 8 Richie Vernon, 7 David Seymour (c), 6 Andy Powell, 5 Kearnan Myall, 4 Richie Gray, 3 Tony Buckley, 2 Tommy Taylor, 1 Ross Harrison.
Replacements: 16 Joe Ward, 17 Eifion Lewis-Roberts, 18 Vadim Cobilas, 19 Fraser McKenzie, 20 James Gaskell, 21 Will Cliff, 22 Nick Macleod, 23 Rob Miller.
Northampton: 15 Ben Foden, 14 Ken Pisi, 13 George Pisi, 12 Dom Waldouck, 11 Jamie Elliott, 10 Ryan Lamb. 9 Martin Roberts, 8 GJ van Velze, 7 Phil Dowson, 6 Calum Clark, 5 Mark Sorenson, 4 Samu Manoa, 3 Brian Mujati, 2 Dylan Hartley (c), 1 Soane Tonga'uiha.
Replacements: 16 Mike Haywood, 17 Alex Waller, 18 Paul Doran Jones, 19 Rhys Oakley, 20 Ben Nutley, 21 Lee Dickson, 22 Stephen Myler, 23 Tom May.

Ship Weight:0.15 Servings:1 Dosage:1 Bar(s) Flavor:Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bonk Breaker Energy Bar Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip - 2.2 oz. (62g) Bonk Breaker Energy Bar Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip is sweet satisfaction in a bar. Peanut Butter & Organic Dark Chocolate... Need they say more? Can you say YUM?! Please help yourself to the Worlds Best Energy & Protein Bars. Bonk Breakers are baked fresh every week, and all of their bars are Gluten Free, Dairy Free, and Soy Free with ingredients they can pronounce and that our bodies recognize. Athlete Tested- Kid Approved. Real Food. Real Fuel. Real Flavor. Bonk Breaker makes the best-tasting, freshest, and most nutritious energy and protein bars on the planet. All of their freshly baked bars taste insanely delicious, and are free of gluten, dairy, and soy. They use only natural, non-GMO ingredients that you can pronounce and that your body will recognize. Starting with their original PB&J, they've been cooking up great bars in the kitchen for 7 years and they're just getting rolling! From pro athletes to weekend warriors to the perfect addition to a kids lunch pail, they've got a bar for you - fresh out of the oven! What's a "Bonk"?"In endurance sports, particularly cycling and running, "hitting the wall' or the 'bonk?' describes a condition caused by the depletion of glycogen stores in the liver and muscles which manifests itself by precipitous fatigue and loss of energy." -Wikipedia.If you've ever bonked, you know how it feels, and you know you don't want to do it again! The dreaded "Bonk" can be avoided by eating Bonk Breaker Energy Bars and making sure you stay fully hydrated. What is Bonk Breakers food philosophy?Bonk Breakers are made by athletes for athletes. Owner Jason Winn, former Division 1 college football quarterback turned triathlete, and Chris Frank, Category 1 Road cyclist, understand their market and have created incredible tasting bars with rocket fuel energy. However, the true beauty of Bonk Breaker is in the simplicity of its ingredients, which has expanded their market from just athletes to the general population. Bonk Breaker believes in a whole foods philosophy, using simple wholesome ingredients. While ingredient quality is of top priority, so is taste. They don't have to tell you that, just taste them and they speak for themselves. Why are Bonk Breakers Gluten-Free?All Bonk Breaker bars are certified gluten-free. "What is Gluten?" Gluten is a protein found in the grains wheat (including kamut and spelt), barley, and rye. It can also be used as a food additive in the form of a flavoring, stabilizer or thickening agent. Over the last couple of years there has been an increasing awareness of Celiac disease (gluten intolerance) and gluten sensitivity. In addition to people that suffer from gluten intolerance and sensitivities, many people just feel healthier and more energetic when they eat a gluten-free, whole foods diet. For more information on Celiac and gluten sensitivity visit: www.celiac.org/ or http://www.gluten.net/. Gluten-Free is the new era of cutting edge sports nutrition. We believe in improving performance through diet. Whether you are fueling for a sport or just nourishing to get through your day, Bonk Breakers are convenient, delicious, gluten-free bars made with the best quality ingredients. Please consult your physician or registered dietitian for a full and complete description of these conditions and how a gluten-free diet might impact you personally. Bonk Breaker is "Gluten-Free" but you use Oats?Bonk Breaker products are made with 100% Gluten-Free Oats. Gluten-Free Oats are grown in fields and on farms which do not grow Gluten containing grains, and that's all we use! These fields are isolated and processed on farming equipment that handles Gluten-Free grains only.This is a issue that can be confusing as over 99% of oats grown are contaminated with Gluten and are NOT Gluten-Free. Here is the reasoning behind the gluten contamination: The vast majority of Oats are grown in fields adjacent to or near wheat and barley fields. This turns into a cross germination and cross contamination issue when the wind blows. In addition, shared soil and processing on the same equipment as wheat and barley can also lead to cross contamination. What does it mean to be Certified Gluten-Free?They are pleased to announce that Bonk Breakers are Certified Gluten-Free by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO). This certification reassures their customers that the manufacturer and ingredients used have been tested and inspected to contain less than 10-ppm of gluten. They appreciate their loyal customers and being Certified Gluten-Free allows us to ensure customer confidence that their products are gluten-free. Why are Bonk Breakers Dairy-Free?All Bonk Breakers are dairy-free.Dairy or milk products/derivatives are common ingredients and sources of protein in energy bars. Dairy ingredients may show up as whey or casein on the ingredient label. Although dairy can be a good source of protein, some people have trouble digesting dairy, especially before or during exercise. When the gut is stressed, as it is with exercise, people may have even less tolerance for dairy, thus slowing you down with cramping and GI distress. They believe in improving performance through diet, so their bars are dairy-free, made with the best quality ingredients. Why are Bonk Breakers Soy-Free?All Bonk Breakers are Soy-Free. Soy is a common ingredient and source of protein in energy bars. There is mixed research on the health benefits of soy. It is also one of the more common food allergens for people. Since they are dedicated to providing an "allergy friendly" bar, their products are soy-free, along with being gluten-free and dairy-free. They use a non-GMO Brown Rice protein and nuts as a protein source in their bars. Are Bonk Breakers vegan and non-GMO?All of their ingredients are non-GMO and vegan other than honey. Therefore, due to the use of honey they do not make vegan or non-GMO claims. When should I eat Bonk Breakers?All the time! Yes, they would love for you to enjoy plentiful amounts of Bonk Breakers, but they also support a balanced, whole foods diet.For everyday use, Bonk Breakers make a quick and easy breakfast treat, convenient snack and meal-on-the-run.For Exercise/Training: Before: Start exercise fully fueled with one of our Bonk Breaker energy bars 30-60 minutes before exercise. This will top off your carbohydrate stores and provide long-lasting, sustained energy. During: For exercise lasting around 90 minutes or longer, it is important to refuel your glycogen stores to avoid "bonking". Athletes' fuel needs differ depending on many factors, but generally athletes should consume 200-400 calories per hour. Bonk Breaker energy bars range from 220-260 calories per bar; therefore athletes often eat 1-2 bars per hour. Bonk Breaker energy bars have about a 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate to protein, which is well balanced, offering sustained energy. When training, it is important to fuel consistently and stay hydrated. Remember, training your gut and practicing your nutrition is an essential aspect to training and performance. Bonk Breaker assists this process by using clean ingredients your body recognizes and can easily digest. After: Recover with one of our Bonk Breaker High Protein bars. The combination of carbohydrate with 15 grams of quality protein will help restore your glycogen stores and rebuild your muscles. How much protein is in the Bonk Breaker High Protein bars?Bonk Breaker High Protein bars provide 15 grams of protein coming from brown rice protein and nuts, a dairy-free and soy-free protein source. Protein is essential after exercise, providing amino acids to aid muscle growth and recovery. Consuming excessive amounts of protein will not make you stronger or bigger. It is also important to consume carbohydrate immediately after exercise to restore depleted carbohydrate glycogen stores. Therefore, Bonk Breaker High Protein has about a 1:1 ratio of protein to carb, making it great for recovery or as a meal replacement. What is the shelf life of a Bonk Breaker?Bonk Breakers are made with fresh, real ingredients. Bonk Breakers do not use preservatives to extend shelf life because they believe in offering a fresh product made with ingredients that you recognize. They are committed to the quality of their ingredients; therefore, their improved packaging keeps the product fresh for 12 months. Do Bonk Breakers contain vitamins and minerals?Bonk Breaker does not fortify their bars with vitamins and minerals. They use the best quality ingredients, thus the nutrients are inherent from their ingredients. About Bonk Breaker The Official Energy Bar of the Ironman Triathlon Series, Bonk Breaker is owned and operated by Jason Winn and Chris Frank. Jason and Chris are both elite level athletes in their own right, Jason a former Division 1 college football quarterback turned triathlete, and Chris a Category 1 Road cyclist. Since Jason and his Mom cooked up the first PB&J in the apartment kitchen in 2005, their mission has been to create the "World's Greatest Energy Bars". By combining great flavors with simple, fresh ingredients, they've baked a lineup that now includes 10 unique bar flavors. Bonk Breakers are baked fresh every week, and all of their bars are Gluten Free, Dairy Free, and Soy Free with ingredients they can pronounce and that our bodies recognize. Bonk Breaker energy and high protein bars fuel top professional, Olympic, and elite level teams and athletes around the world. Just as importantly though, they are the fuel of choice for weekend warriors, families, and anyone looking for a tasty and nutritious snack. They are 100% committed to creating great-tasting energy and protein bars on the cutting edge of sports nutrition. With the help of our awesome "research department" (that's you!), they'll always produce great tasting and nutritious products. They provide the fuel for professional and elite level athletes and teams not because they pay from a huge marketing budget, but rather, because they LOVE their products and are proud to be a part of our team. To them, that's the ultimate complement. They hope you feel the same, and they look forward to bringing you even more great flavors in the coming months. Give them a try and they promise you won't be disappointed!

All Loving Pets accessories are manufactured with the highest quality materials. Your pet's safety is Loving Pets number one concern.

Community – As a growing part of the pet industry, they are working hard to educate pet owners and continue to donate to pet shelters, rescues and societies, making life better for pets and the people who love them. Loving Pets 100% Natural Treats and Quality Accessories for Your Pet When Loving Pets was born, the concept was simple: create high quality healthy pet treats and pet accessories with an emphasis on making life better for beloved pets and the owners who care for them. At the same time, they realized quality does not have to be synonymous with overpriced products. These basic principles became the foundation for Loving Pets Corporation. As proud dog and cat owners, the entire Loving Pets Team plays an important role in the development of their natural pet treats and pet accessories. When products are initially created, they are developed, refined, and finally enjoyed by their own pets. For this reason, they are confident that once a product bares the Loving Pets name, you can be certain your pet is receiving the very best. After all, isn't that what your loved ones deserve? At Loving Pets, all treats adhere to one basic concept: natural is better. When the team sets out to create any new treat, natural is always their starting point. However, there are several other criteria which must be met before any treat can warrant the Loving Pets name. Quality ingredients and a taste that dogs will love are an important part of the equation. Reasonable pricing is also an essential factor. Loving Pets treats are not only designed with your furry friend in mind, but also to please the most important person in their lives, you. Loving Pets Corporation, established in December of 2005, is a New Jersey based company which focuses on its own brand of high quality, all natural pet treats and decorative stainless steel feeding bowls and dishes. The founding vision of the Loving Pets team was a company that truly cared about the health and well-being of the pets you love. That vision has grown to provide pet owners with healthy alternatives they can feel good about giving to their pampered pets. Loving Pets' products are distributed nationally, as well as internationally. Loving Pets Corporation continues to focus its efforts on healthier, all natural pet treat options incorporating vitamins and supplements that are beneficial to the growing number of health-conscience pet owners. Dedicated attention to ingredients and quality are the standards that set Loving Pets apart from its competitors.

Damn you, Barack Obama. Just when I'm steeling my resolve to never vote for your ineffectual, conservative appeasing, barely progressive ass ever again, you come out with some more family photos turn my heart into a giant puddle of "aaaaaw."

Lech Kiedrowski, PhD
Associate Professor
Dr. Kiedrowski's long-term objective is to conduct studies aimed at further understanding the mechanisms of neuronal dysfunction or death during neuropsychiatric diseases and stroke, and to identify novel targets for pharmacological intervention to treat these diseases. Currently, Dr. Kiedrowski follows up on the findings described in his recent papers indicating that a drop in intracellular pH triggers intracellular Zn2+ release that likely plays a role in the mechanism of ischemic neuronal death. In this research, the intracellular sources of Zn2+ involved in the acid-induced Zn2+ release are being investigated. Dr. Kiedrowski's research has been funded by grants from NIH and AHA.

Have not held up well :(
"Got these 2 months ago and have worn them a handful of times. There is a streak along the top of the shoe where the patent has flaked off, and both heels have significant wearing on the patent (one with a quarter-inch long section where the patent has completely come off). I got these to wear to work but they're dinged up enough that I don't know if I can do that anymore. I would normally return them due to poor product quality but I don't know if I'll hassle with it for a shoe that was relatively inexpensive when bought on sale."

"Beautiful shoe! Heel is perfect height - Not too high!"
By: PlaneTrees
Location: Indiana
March 05, 2014
"I bought this shoe in the blush color to compliment a dress, and while the color matched perfectly, these shoes were too uncomfortable for me to keep. Because of the heel height my foot squashed forward in the shoe, and I knew I couldn't walk around for more than 5 minutes in them. Sadly, they've been returned."

PFB VANISH is a collection of hair removal care products designed to gently exfoliate skin cells to lift ingrown hairs and reduce irritation. Includes the popular Skin Treatment and Numb-It to keep skin smooth and bare.
Some ReliefSo, I have a very low tolerance to pain and I just purchased an epilator and wanted something to help dull the pain. I used the epilator on my legs prior to receiving this and will say that this stuff did help when I placed it on the lower half of my legs. It DID NOT help with the pain of having the hair pulled out but it made the painful feeling go away much faster. With that being said, the numbing cream didn't help me on the upper half of my legs where it is more sensitive. If you are just purchasing this for your face, then it's worth purchasing, simply because it eases discomfort. However, I was disappointed with the results. I was expecting more of a numb feeling, which I only felt when I used it on my face. I wouldn't purchase this again.

Your favorite shoes: on sale now!
The animated character Dora the Explorer has become a fun and inspirational favorite among girls. Dora's adventures show girls that they can accomplish anything they want to do and that knowledge is power. Dora shoes from Dora the Explorer and Dora and Friends at Payless reflect this sense of adventure and confidence. They include Dora sneakers and Dora shoes for toddlers and give your girl options for many occasions.
Summertime is sandal time, and you'll find some great options at Payless. For example, you might choose the Dora Flower Wedge. This cute, casual sandal sports a large multi-colored flower on the upper and an equally colorful image of Dora herself on the footbed. The flower provides a tropical look that makes the sandal perfect for playing by the swimming pool or when she's out and about in shorts or jeans. The ankle sling keeps the sandal on her little feet, and the hook-and-loop closure ensures a secure fit.
Does your girl need something a little dressier? You can opt for something like the Dora Glitter Bow Wedge. The glittery gold upper will make her feel fancy. A Mary Jane–style strap with a hook-and-loop closure keeps the shoe in place, no matter how much your girl dances and plays. A half-inch wedge gives the shoe the style your girl likes, and a skid-resistant outsole helps you feel better about safety on slippery surfaces.
Every girl could use a few pairs of sneakers, and Payless has the Dora sneakers she'll love. The vibrant shades of teal, yellow, and hot pink on the upper of the Dora Lightweight Runner will help your girl stand out in a crowd. For a secure fit, it has a hook-and-loop closure and stretchy laces. It has a mesh lining to keep her feet cool, and a padded tongue, collar, and insole to keep her comfortable all day.
If your girl loves Dora the Explorer and going on her own adventures, she'll love Dora shoes from Payless. Visit a Payless store near you or go online. Do some exploring yourself. You'll discover great shoes and great values, so you can outfit her for every kind of fun.

Structuring Strategies Presents: Involution, a Program of Short Video Works
CalArts, Bijou Theater
FILM/VIDEO: Involution, a program of short video works by Ivan Argote, Balam Bartolome, Amy Howden-Chapman, Christian Franco, Oliver Laric, Lindsay Lawson, Sara Ludy and Anne de Vries, with Ivan Argote, Amy Howden-Chapman and curators Temra Pavlovic and Michael Ray-Von. This screening is in tandem with an exhibition of these works at Otras Obras in Tijuana, BC, MX, opening Friday, 8 Feb., from 6-10 PM.
It doesn't set a ground for this is true, and this is not true. With an involutionary continuum the means of assessment (of the origin and the destination) are always in question. "They're in a state of becoming but, I wanna not say that word." The form we're talking about exists between these two terms: the medium and the substrate.
Involution as a radical rethinking of historical narratives and social formations. A social architecture is an assemblage of images, the form of which constitutes a temporary continuum of identity. The continuum tends toward behaviors; tropes. Existing in parallel are potential alternate formations of a given social image. Innumerable heads inhabiting a single body; a coexistence of influences. By exploiting or exploding the tendencies, or tropes, of a given formation: alternate formations occur. The result is a lingering self-recognition, a turning out upon itself, an involution. Exposing an interiority that carries the potentials of all possible exteriorities. Laying bare the genetic material.
With an evolution, the relationship between a preceding form and its successor is fixed. An involution occurs when the hierarchy of those fixed identities is complicated. An identity in time is given question as to whom is the actor, and whom is being acted upon. And this sets the identity into a crisis where the means for assessing the terms of progression are lost.
The dancer is practicing in front of the mirror. The mirror is practicing in front of the dancer. The camera is the dancer, and the television is the mirror. And the video-feedback itself is neither the camera nor the television, it's something that's between the two terms. And its always-already occurring everywhere all the time.
Emancipate the logic of civilization to serve as a catalyst for an involution of form, as an instrument for treason against a stagnating social formation. Involution is an auto-betrayal. This exhibition is a consideration of the terms under which an involution may take place.
Amy Howden-Chapman is a Los Angeles based artist and writer, born in 1984 in Wellington, New Zealand. She has an honors degree in Art History, Victoria University, Wellington (2006), a Masters degree in Creative Writing, Victoria University, Wellington (2005) and in 2011 she graduated from California Institute of the Arts with a Master in Fine Arts.
Ivan Argote (born 1983 in Bogota, Colombia) studied design and new media at the National University of Colombia in Bogota as well as fine arts at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris. Argote works with mixed media: His (video) performances, photography, sculptures, paintings, new media and video art often share "humour with a rebellious twist" and comment "on the ways we traditionally regard art" (Da Wire). "My works are reflections about the way we behave, about how we understand our close environment, and about how this close environment is related with history, traditions, art, politics and power. Creating these reflections in a playful spirit, this allows me to work with great freedom in different ways, which also is a comment about the way one works on art" (Idol Magazine, 2011) explains the young artist, who however already enjoys international attention. Argote presented his work at solo exhibitions in acclaimed art institutions such as Palais de Tokyo, Paris; CA2M, Madrid; D+T Project, Brussels and elsewhere. In addition, Argote has been invited to 30th Sao Paulo Biennale, Brazil and numerous group exhibitions in Europe, USA and South America.

San Clemente stylist has a love affair with hair
Holly Lynch had no plans to open her own hair salon, but when opportunity knocked, she answered. Now, the 12-year hairstylist is in her third year as owner of Hair Affair Salon in San Clemente.
The graduate of Trabuco Hills High School in Mission Viejo first studied cosmetology and hairstyling in a Regional Occupational Program class at her alma mater. Hair Affair is her third salon.
"I'm always up for a challenge, and especially one that makes sense," said Lynch, who lives in San Clemente. "I love trying new things."
Lynch says her favorite thing about hairstyling is making people look better than when they came in. It might mean basic maintenance or a whole new look, but it's a quick fix, she says.
"It doesn't take long to have someone looking their best." Lynch said.
San Clemente resident Richard Weaver has been going to Hair Affair for about two months after getting a referral from a friend to give Lynch a crack at cutting his hair. Weaver visited on a recent Saturday for a wash and a cut before going on a run. He and Lynch had seen each other at a New Year's Eve party and were chatting about what's new with their friends and families.
"It's great coming in here with Holly," Weaver said. "We catch up and have a good time. She makes me look good."
What's the best thing about owning your hair salon?
It's fun. I love interacting with people and making conversation, getting to know people.
What has been the biggest challenge?
I had a big salon with a partner here in San Clemente a few years ago. I went too big, but I took it as a loss and a learning experience. Now I have a smaller place with a smaller atmosphere, so it's more personalized now. It's much better."
Who is your most well-known client?
I just cut the hair of the principal on '90210' – the new '90210,' not the old one.
When you're not at work, what are you up to?
I like to work out, so I am running or walking. And then I'm pretty spontaneous, so I'll take off to the mountains or San Diego for a couple of days.
What trends do you see in hair?
Well, hair is getting more colorful, for sure, like the tips and streaks you see in women's hair, especially celebrities. It's called ombre. Everything else is keeping strong, like weaves. We do a lot of weaves and Brazilian straightening too.
For men, the trend now is short, and maybe even shorter on the sides and longer on top.

|NGA Home Home Themes Education Compare Works Search
Group: Giverny
Artist: Claude MONET
Birth/Death: 1840–1926
Title: Waterlilies
Date Made: 1903
Lender: Dayton Art Institute, Dayton, Ohio
The layers of paint in Waterlilies create a dense, continuous surface. In this it is totally unlike Japanese painting, where the ink or paint sinks into the paper or silk and becomes one substance with it. Nevertheless there are affinities of mood with Japanese paintings which also express the ephemeral moment. Monet's delicate curved strokes are slightly blurred at the tips of the willow leaves, suggesting their almost imperceptible movement in a current of air that has not yet stirred the glassy water. Broad strokes of violet-blues are painted around the islands of waterlily pads, as if to indicate that they shadow the water beneath them. These brushstrokes draw attention to the invisible depths of the pool, and perhaps to the mud from which the lilies emerge.
In Waterlilies one instinctively measures space by relating the willow fronds to the different angles of foreshortening and the decreasing scale of the waterlily leaves as they recede towards a darkening that suggests the opposite bank. When Monet excluded such forms and painted only the water surface, the viewer has no means of measuring space, and it becomes infinite.

After a less than magical one-night stand, cynical Dawson Rutherford needs the help of the woman he considers seduced him. Barrie Bell, still reeling from their encounter, is ambivalent about aiding his scheme. She's kept a secret from Dawson...one that could free them both to love again!
©1996 Diana Palmer (P)2012 Brilliance Audio, all rights reserved. A selection from Silver Bells (c) 2012 Harlequin Books S.A.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"Didn't love this one."
Struggled to finish. I've listened to several other books she's written that are MUCH better. this one was a disappointment.
"Not her best!"
Yes, I enjoyed his expressive reading which vividly showed how awful Dawson was.
The going back and forth between the two of with the love and hate. Also I know the hero in romances should be forceful but he raped her twice and then to add insult to injury verbally assaulted her afterwards. That was distasteful. I've read books by Diana Palmer for many years especially her long, tall Texans series and this by far the worst.
The nuances of each character.
The widow Holton
"Disappointing. Had great reviews on Amazon but..."
Havent read it so couldn't say...
The lead male character was such an a**hole. Mean, hateful, hurtful and in my opinion un-redeeming. The heroine was weak and a huge pushover. If any man treated my friend like this I would tell her to leave his crazy self and never speak to him again. The heroine had no self respect at all.
Jeff Crawford did a great job and was probably the only good thing about this book.
Yes! I wanted to strangle both of them! I wanted to laugh with absurdness of this book and cry with frustration and disbelieving.
This author usually does so much better and before I purchased this book I looked at the reviews and they were all 4+ stars and great reviews. Big disappointment.
"Far from Diana Palmer's best."
I enjoy Diana Palmer's books and was excited to come across this one. Unfortunately it was far from one of her best. I found the characters shallow and predictable and the story theme repetitive. I managed to stay with it to the end but it took effort.
"Sheer brilliance"
heartbreakingly heartwarmingly awesome
Palmer returns to the scene and makes us fall in love with Wyoming all over again with this heartbreakingly heart-warming tale. She uses exquisitely vivid descriptions that you can't help but picture. I can barely express how fully she drew me into this tale. The narrator really enhanced the story with his varying pace, tone, and emotion.
You get to know the main characters of this tale in intimate detail. Their past, present, and futures all make their way into this tale. I felt for these characters. My heart broke for both of the main characters in this heart-warming yet shocking tale. The supporting cast, although small, was perfect for this tale. They round out the story nicely, walking the line between family and employee.
I was emotionally invested in this story. I didn't want it to end but at the same time I wanted to know how it turned out. It was a brilliant tale that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State John Kerry is traveling to Turkey and Israel this weekend to build on the two nations' efforts to repair ties, U.S. and Turkish officials said Wednesday.
Kerry had planned to depart next week for meetings in London and then South Korea, China and Japan.
But he has moved up his departure to Saturday to build on the rapprochement that President Obama brokered between Turkey and Israel during his visit to the region two weeks ago, the officials said.
Kerry will also discuss regional concerns, including Syria and the Mideast peace process.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to speak publicly on the trip, which has not been announced.
Turkey and Israel were once strong allies, but relations have been badly strained since Israel's 2010 raid on a Turkish flotilla bound for Gaza that left eight Turks and one Turkish-American dead.
Last month, Obama helped broker a call from Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in which Netanyahu apologized for the botched raid.
Turkey had demanded an apology as a condition for restoring ties. Netanyahu had until then refused to apologize, saying Israeli soldiers acted in self-defense after being attacked by activists.

"These boots look great and are very comfortable, but after the first wear the toe had completely worn off. During the second the heal came off. Cheap! Very dissapointed in these boots. Will not buy this brand again. Would not recommend these to anyone. Feel like I just threw away $100."
