Castelli Sella Rain Jacket $219.95
Rain is not an excuse to stay home.
Bitter and rainy conditions seem like the perfect excuse to stay inside. However, Castelli knows that something inside of you still feels the need to ride. Its Sella Rain Jacket ensures that the weather is never an excuse for not riding outdoors. After all, who wants to spend all winter on an indoor trainer?
First, it should be noted that the Sella jacket is not a stowable rain cover — it's an actual jacket. Therefore, it's best worn for rides when you won't need to take it off and store it. Castelli constructed it from its Torrent three-layer laminate. This material is completely waterproof, wind-resistant, and highly breathable. And, while we're typically hesitant to support claims of waterproof, with a water column rating of 10,000mm, and fully-taped seams, the Torrent fabric has our vote of confidence. Additionally, all of the seams of the Sella were taped, the fleece-lined collar flips up, the full-length zipper is also waterproof. Additionally, it includes a rain flap and a zipper garage. In other words, nothing is getting into this jacket.
Now, there is nothing worse then that feeling of cold air on sweaty skin in the dead of winter. So, to regulate your core temperature, layers need to breath so that moisture is able to be wicked away from your skin and evaporated. And even though the Torrent fabric is breathable, Castelli placed two large, zippered ventilation ports at the underarms of the jacket in order to increase airflow and cooling when your body is working hard.
Just as importantly, Castelli knows that weather protection is a moot point if your jacket fits like a garbage bag. Accordingly, one of the added features of the Torrent fabric is its ability to stretch. As a result, the Sella Rain combines a hard-shell level of protection with the feel and freedom of movement of a softshell jacket. It's patterned to mirror the body within the cycling position. So, you'll notice that the back and sleeves have been elongated — gaps above your shorts and gloves are covered without fabric bunching.
Finishing touches include adjustable hook-and-loop closures at the wrists and an elastic drawcord at the hem. A media pocket with internal cable routing was added to the chest, while reflective piping and screen printing are added throughout the jacket for visibility from all angles.
The Castelli Sella Jacket is available in six sizes from Small to XXX-Large and in the colors Yellow Fluo/black and White/black.

- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I am 6'3", 230 musclely, 36 length sleeve in dress shirts, 44 chest. Tried the XXL. The body leaves space to move but it's kinda of a 'baggy' fit, mainly because of the material. The arms are long...I rolled up the sleeve and it was still down to the back of my hand, past my wrists. I did love the amount of pockets- three in front, one in back. The styling made me look like a race car driver but without the sponsor patches. Not a good look to me. I didn't want to rate this jacket with stars because I didn't use it but I had to in order to post a review. Sent it back.

Zekrom, as i'm a sucker for black & blue.
Reshiram is my favorite out of the two, I like Fire better than Electric, and I think it looks much cooler than Zekrom.

Zekrom. Both are cool, but definitely Zekrom.
The Fire-Dragon Reshiram for sure, I like the color white (even if white isn't a color... ups)

I think Reshiram has a better design, but I prefer Zekrom's type combination and color.
Zekrom gets an instant advantage over Reshiram cause of speed plus it gets the perfect moves to KO it

Zekrom. Such a cool looking Pokemon. Pretty much the best Pokemon to come out of Gen 5, which is saying something cause there's a lot of Gen 5 Pokemon I really love. To be honest, its right up there with Charizard, Typlohsion and Lugia as one of my all time faves. The whole Thunder God thing its got going on is great, with a brilliant moveset to boot.
I like Zekrom's design more, even though Reshiram is technically better from a competitive battling standpoint.
Zekrom... I think it looks better, plus black is one of my favourite colours... And I like its typing more than Reshiram's; I'd choose Dragon/Electric over Dragon/Fire any day.
I prefer Zekrom better too. I think that the Electric-Dragon type combination is better than the ever-so-predictable Dragon-Fire, and I like how Zekrom looks better. One last thing is its name. I love that Zekrom sounds like something computerized. That also supports how it's part Electric Type in a way...
I love both, but ever since I've seen them when they were first revealed I've always preferred Reshram. :3 It's just fluffier and prettier. Don't get me wrong; Zekrom is awesome, too.
I prefer Zekrom's design over Reshiram's. Besides, electricity is way more satisfying than fire.

Reshiram looks really weird.
Zekrom looks cool and it's Electric type. Instant win.
The only thing Reshriram's got over Zekrom is that it's white.
Reshiram looks cool to me and I have always preferred the Fire type.
reshiram looks like a dragon angel thing!
zekrom looks like a robot :/

20 Questions with Drew Timm, Owner, Sun Services Air Conditioning-Heating Inc.
Originally published: 07.01.10 by Terry Tanker
Publisher Terry Tanker recently spoke with Tops in Trucks honoree Drew Timm, owner of Sun Services Air Conditioning-Heating Inc., Fountain Hills, AZ. They spoke about muscle cars, meeting customers in hot tubs, and lessons learned from owning a small business.
1. What toys are in the garage?
I have a passion for collector cars. I have a show-winning Jeep CJ7, 1965 Mustang Convertible, 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 455 HO Ram Air, BMW M3 Convertible, 2007 Harley Davidson with over 40 celebrity signatures on it, and three Polaris Quads.
2. When did you start collecting them?
I'm thinking my first Hot Wheels was around three years old. High school is when I started dealing in muscle cars and exotics. My brother and I had a Porsche and VW repair business.
3. Where do you store all of them?
We have a commercial building that is done in a car hop theme inside. It's really cool and a lot of fun.
4. Which one is your favorite?
I would have to say my celebrity-signed Harley Davidson. The bike was acquired at a charity auction to help the families of injured military personnel. This one has a special place in my heart.
5. Last month you won the HVACR Business fleet-design contest in the Lettering category. Your passion for cars obviously transfers over to your company fleet. Is this the thrust of your marketing, or are you doing additional marketing and advertising?
I created the vehicle design myself and figured even a service vehicle can be a piece of art. I believe attracting the attention of the consumer is extremely important. Those who are driving an incognito white truck or van with no lettering or lettering so small you can't read are missing opportunities. This is simple, low-cost, high-return marketing.
6. What do customers say about your fleet?
We have folks tell us all the time, "I've seen your trucks around town." Now, how sweet is that? Some of them are existing customers, and some are future customers!
7. What part of your business have you had to reshape or give special attention to this year? (during this economic climate?)
First, keeping the customer happy at all costs by doing whatever it takes to retain them. Second, keeping a sharp eye on expenses and costs, anything from vendor pricing to unnecessary purchases to labor overruns and call backs. Third, and I think most important is, keep on marketing. Letting our existing and potential customers know we're still around and stronger than ever.
8. What is your biggest challenge as a business owner?
Seasonal changes in work volume and trying to level out the times of being too busy and not busy enough.
9. Do you have an interesting customer service story to share?
This is a case of "you never know who your customers are." My wife and I were relaxing in a hot tub in Kauai a few years back and started a conversation with two ladies who happened to be from Arizona. Come to find out, she had been a long-time customer of ours. She was as surprised as I was and addressed me as "Mr. Sun Services." Be careful what you say. You never know who's in a hot tub with you!
10. How did you get your start in hvacr?
I was an assistant project manager of a $30-million property in Tampa when I turned 20, and being mechanically minded, took an interest in hvac, and now I'm 50, and the rest is history.
11. What aspect of running your business do you enjoy the most?
Interacting with people. I'm a people-pleasing person for sure.
12. How are you using technology to improve your business?
We are using Wintac software in our office, and our trucks are GPS equipped for efficiency and customer satisfaction in the event of a discrepancy. We also are venturing into the socialnetworking sites.
13. Can you describe your toughest customer?
It has to be the one who is confused by too much information on the Internet and by external sources. It takes a while to get them focused on what's really important, especially in selecting equipment for their home.
14. Do you provide special services to customers because of the climate or because of your market area?
When it gets to be 110-115 degrees here, we kick into high gear and take care of the elderly first.
15. What brands do you carry? Do you have a favorite?
I have been with Trane since the '80s and believe their equipment is the best. Their company is easy to deal with and has fantastic dealer support, along with the best opportunities in training to help the contractor succeed.
16. How important is the ability to forecast your business?
It's always good to know what's coming up for the future. Sometimes the predictions are right on track. But staying focused is the best way to weather any storm.
17. What is the most important lesson owning a business has taught you?
To be patient and understand that all things will work out fine. Don't get too stressed out about every little thing you may view as going wrong. Deal with the bigger issues first, and then the small ones will be a piece of cake.
18. Do you sell service agreements?
Absolutely! They should be a part of every contractor's business toolbox.
19. What management duties do you hang on to, but shouldn't?
The Sun Services' team is terrific and works extremely hard. I'm very proud of them. I guess I don't feel burdened by anything I currently do.
20. What is the most difficult cost for you to control?
I'm still searching for the perfect formula for labor!

Common Sense
Common sense – it's simply knowing the difference between right and wrong. It entails a personal and subjective process of analyzing a situation and finding a solution that works. For most people I think it's their first instinct, the rational thing they would do without giving the situation a thought. Again, I said for most people.

Congratulations on having the perseverance to post for 3,100 consecutive days. Have a Wonderful 2014! Warren :)
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching 3,100 consecutive days! Truly magnificent! Wow, another milestone has arrived! : ) For most GBs (8M plus) they don't seem to have the dedication or the persistence it takes to come back and post gas prices each day for other GBs! Or they just run out of gas! :( Hang onto your speed lines, it only takes one day to lose them! I'm sure you know! But, even clicking on news article links, which are the easiest points here on GasBuddy, when you can't or didn't post gas prices before midnight will save your consecutive days! : ) WARNING!

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Part 4: Swapping a Ford 8.8 rear axle
Last month, we presented T&T Customs' very nice long-arm suspension system, and we then headed off to Moab where we gave it a "trial by trail" evaluation.
It passed-in fact, it did better than we anticipated. The front axle needed to be shifted a bit to the left to center it, and more caster angle added to improve pavement tracking, but otherwise we were pretty dead on. Low-speed wheel articulation was outstanding, even with our Addco sway bars hooked up. However, after three days of trails, the stiffener bar overloaded our connecting links, and they bent into snakelike shapes to the point where they had to be disconnected for the remainder of our week. (Yes, we have since replaced them with some new stronger tubular ones.) Dry sandy washes and dirt roads were a flat-out blast to run at speed as there was just the proper amount of tail-end oversteer to let us power through a controlled drift.
We're still working on some pavement tracking and roll steer issues that hopefully we will soon solve. We will be sure to give you a year-end update on our final conclusions.
Something to keep in mind is that the long-arm kit from T&T Customs is at the top end of suspension systems in quality, ride quality, usability and, unfortunately, price. This is not the suspension for the guy who just wants to raise his vehicle to obtain the "cool off-road-ready" look. It's designed for the hard-core user who wants the very best. The detail and precision of all the bracketry is, in a single word, outstanding. Professional welding skills are definitely needed to do the installation.
Now, let's jump back a few months to the drivetrain modifications and start with the rear axle. We weren't quite sure what we wanted to do in the rear. Yes, the Grand came equipped with a Dana 44. But here was the problem: it's a hybrid 44 with an aluminum centersection, weak axletubes, C-clip drive axles, and no aftermarket support. Only two gear ratios are offered: 3.54:1 and 3.73:1. Ours had the 3.73:1s because of the trailer towing package, which would be marginal with our planned 33-inch-tall tires.
We did have a Scout Dana 44 stashed away that we at first considered using, but it had drum brakes and a 5-on-51/2 bolt pattern. Yes, we could have converted it to a 5-on-41/2 bolt pattern and even added disc brakes, and perhaps that is what we should have done, as in the end the overall price would have been less.
Instead we went with a '95-and-later Ford Explorer 8.8-inch rearend. We got the disc brakes, the same ones used in a lot of aftermarket conversion kits, a slightly larger ring gear (8.8 versus 8.5 inches), and 31-spline axles (that still had C-clips for retention).
The drawback with this axle is that it was about 1.25 inches narrower than the ZJ's original. To bring the track width back out, we located some billet-aluminum spacers in Jegs' catalog that centered on the axle hub, not on the lug studs. That also meant longer studs for proper nut engagement, and Moroso had the ones we needed. Then we had to drill out the stud holes in our stock axleshaft flanges a bit for a proper pressed fit. Actually, just after we did this, Alloy USA shipped us some very nice replacement axleshafts made from double heat-treated 4340 chromoly material that carry a 10-year warranty against breakage. While still a C-clip design, with our present tire and motor combination, we are confident that we will never break them.
The axle flanges were drilled and tapped for either the 5-on-51/2 or the 5-on-41/2 bolt pattern. The supplied screw-in studs weren't long enough to use with the spacers, so some Moroso stud/bolts were used. However, upon installation, we found the heads hit the emergency brake, and we ended up hand-grinding the head a considerable amount for proper clearance and using a red stud locker to make sure they would not back out.

Report: Suns talking trade for Memphis' Rudy Gay
The Suns sit at 12-23, the second-worst record in the Western Conference and 7.5 games out of the final playoff spot.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the team is tinkering with even more change.
Wojnarowski wrote Tuesday morning that the Suns are engaged in talks with the Memphis Grizzlies about forward Rudy Gay.
There's no framework of a possible deal in place, but the Grizzlies have expressed a strong desire that any package involving Gay include Suns forward Jared Dudley and future first-round draft picks, sources said.
Gay, who is averaging 17.8 points for the Grizzlies this season, has two years remaining on his contract after this season, which will pay him over $37 million. He is making $16.4 million this season.
But as Wojnarowski points out, the Suns do have plenty of first round draft picks in future years, having acquired two of them from the Los Angeles Lakers in the Steve Nash deal last summer.
Gay, 26, was a first round draft pick (eighth overall) out of Connecticut by the Houston Rockets in 2006, but was later traded to the Grizzlies in a deal for Shane Battier. Gay has averaged 17.9 points per game over his seven-year NBA career.
Despite leading Memphis in scoring this season, his per game output is the lowest since his rookie season when he averaged 10.8 points per contest.

Free Pussy Riot: The Only Band That Matters in 2012
If you haven't heard of Pussy Riot yet, you need to take action now! Tobi Vail (yes, of Bikini Kill) had much to say about members of the anonymous collective (who were jailed for protesting the conservative Russian government) as well as their outfits: "Their uniform not only disguises their identities, it congeals their individuality into a unified set of symbols. Their neon balaclavas clash with the individual pieces of clothing worn by each girl, but also express a visual unity. Bright purple, pink, green, red, yellow and blue; one girl's tights clash with her dress, but match another girl's balaclava, which match a third girl's tights, whose balaclava matches the first girl's dress, and so on. The result is an image that is striking and memorable."
Catherine Scott at Bitch Magazine recently wrote this short piece about the place of clothing in BDSM culture. These kinds of interesting discussions happen on fetish community discussion boards all the time, so seeing it moved into a venue like Bitch is exciting.

Glee Spoilers: Emma to Move on From Willby Matt Richenthal at .
When we last left Emma and Will, the former had held her ground against the latter when it came to his, well, man-whoring ways.
It's been a couple weeks since Glee focused on this relationship, though, causing viewers to wonder where the duo stands. According to the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, the answer is: What duo?!?
On the June 8 season finale, we'll learn that Emma has moved on from her dream man, at least for now. Who has she been secretly romancing? Her dentist!
"This is going to be a major character," says a source close to the series.
Emma's new man will officially show up next season, though the role has not yet been cast. With Neil Patrick Harris guest-starring this week, the pressure is on to come up with a significant name.
Got any suggestions?

yeah, they were never together... so its like 'what couple' there are a few times where they were attracted together but by the next day it seems that Emma is scared of will. Really, everyone can tell they have something but she keeps running away. In this episode will admits his love for her... she went back to carl.
While I know it breaks plot lines but come on, Glee isn't the best on following them (Quinn goes from being moderatly pregnant to not at all between episodes and sometimes between scenes). I loooooved Neal Patrick Harris, and I know he's on CBS not Fox, but well he should switch for the role. I loved him last night. They could write it in that he's a car salesman not a dentist. :)

Maria Carreira got a jump on the penny-pinching Royal Canadian Mint a decade ago. She adjusted the prices at her tailor shop to avoid dealing in those annoying one-cent coins.
"I decided that I didn't want any pennies," said Carreira, who owns Centre de couture et nettoyeur Super Gala on Rachel St. E. in Montreal's Little Portugal.
"Some people would come with pennies, some wouldn't, and I'd always have to go to the bank to make change," said Carreira, who has been in business since 1999.
"I said to myself, 'Why the hassle? I'll just cut all the pennies off my prices.' That's what I did. Since then, everything ends in 0 or 5 cents — no pennies."
Now the Mint is making it easy for everyone to be penny-free.
Starting Monday, it will stop distributing one-cent coins to banks and other financial institutions. Canadian pennies have been in circulation since 1908.
Now, when you pay cash, you'll pay in increments of five cents, just like Carreira and many other merchants have been encouraging for years.
No more 99-cent sales — you'll now pay a dollar. No more totals like $125.22 after tax — you'll save a couple of cents on your final bill of $125.20. And so on.
Anything ending in 3 or 4 cents gets rounded up to 5, anything ending in 1 or 2 gets rounded down to zero. If it's 6 or 7 it goes down to 5, if it's 8 or 9 it's upped to 10.
Simple? Pretty much. Practical? Certainly. Economical? You bet.
At its plant in Winnipeg, the Mint was spending 1.6 cents on every penny it made — a ridiculous situation beyond its control, as costs of metal and labour and other expenses rose.
All told, taking pennies out of circulation (production itself stopped last May) will save the Crown corporation about $11 million a year — no small change.
The move was announced last March in the Conservative government's budget.
Transactions paid by cheque, credit card or debit card will continue to be settled to the cent. Sales taxes will be calculated on the pre-tax price, not the rounded price.
The penny won't disappear overnight, of course. There are still billions of them out there and they'll continue to be legal tender "indefinitely," the Mint says.
But with fewer Canadians now making cash purchases — only 19 per cent pay cash in retail and hospitality transactions, industry estimates show — the penny's fading fast.
Now let the information campaigns begin — and there are many.
Finance Canada has a penny portal on its website, there are campaigns on Facebook and Twitter, 225,000 fliers at Canada Post counters, and ads until the end of March on all platforms.
And this pronouncement recently from the Conseil québécois du commerce de détail: "Le retrait de la pièce de un cent sera favorable aux consommateurs et aux détaillants."
Translation: Eliminating the "black penny," as it's known in Quebec, is good for business, good for consumers, too. It will literally be a load-off.
"Les consommateurs qui traînent des sous noirs dans leurs poches apprécieront sans doute aussi cette nouvelle!" the head of the council, Léopold Turgeon, said in a communiqué.
Quebec retailers now have a duty to let their customers know how the process works, he added. To that end, the council has its own downloadable cash-display card, at www.cqcd.org.
Not everyone's up on the news — but many are happy the penny's going.
At Pizzeria Dany on a busy shopping stretch of St. Denis St. at Marianne St., everything on the menu is priced to end in a 0 or a 5. It's been that way for a year.
Pennies? They're a waste, owner Engin Yildiz believes.
"I mean, how many million dollars a year does it cost the country?" said Yildiz, who'd heard about the penny going out of circulation but didn't know when.
"Now they're not going to make it anymore? When are they going to start this thing?" On Monday, he was told. "I think that's right — it's a good thing."
A single penny sat among other loose change in a Styrofoam tips bowl next to the cash. "People just empty their pockets," Yildiz said with a shrug.
"Sometimes someone will actually pay for their pizza with pennies, you know. If they want to, what can I say? We have no choice, we have to take it."
Back in his native Turkey, Yildiz remembers the national currency, the lira, used to be nearly worthless. A decade ago, a U.S. dollar bought you 1.6 million.
Since redenomination in 2005, the currency's now at around 1.75 to the dollar. One thing that didn't change, however, is Turkey's penny, the kurush. It's still in circulation.
Other countries have long dispensed with their one-cent coin: Israel dumped its 1 agora in 1991, Australia its penny in 1992, Brazil its 1 centavo in 2005, Holland its 1-cent euro in 2004.
There are still some notable holdouts who value their pennies — especially the U.S. and Britain, who have kept theirs. But even there, there are calls to pinch it into oblivion.
Truth be told, the penny is not actually a "real" penny anymore. By its colour, it may look like copper, but it's actually not — and hasn't been for some time.
The Brits' is copper-plated steel (it used to be bronze). So is ours (it was almost all copper until 1997). And the Americans' is copper-plated zinc (it was copper, bronze or brass until 1983).
Should such a dressed-up, phony two-faced coin — with its double maple leaf branch on one side and the Queen on the other — be mourned?
Some merchants put the dying penny's days in perspective.
"It doesn't bother me — it means we can forget about getting pennies when we go to the bank," said Hien Quach, who owns Supermarché Sakaris on St. Laurent Blvd. below Mont Royal Ave.
"We'll still take pennies if customers want — they'll still be around for a couple of years, I think," said Quach, who has had the store since 2002.
If Canadians think the penny is almost worthless, Quach said they should check out the dong, the currency in his native country, Vietnam.
When he last lived there, 25 years ago, people needed enormous amounts to shop.
"Back then, one of the smallest bills was 10 dong. I remember going to buy a colour TV with a huge bundle of dong," Quach said with a laugh. "It was as big as the TV itself!"
Leaving the store, customer Michael Olender said he won't miss the penny, either.
"Personally, it's not a big deal," said the young Saskatoon consultant, who recently moved here after graduating in international affairs from Carleton University in Ottawa.
"If getting the penny out of circulation saves the government money, then I think that's a positive change. It makes sense to me."
Dumping the penny also has a fringe benefit: It "presents a fundraising opportunity for charities," the Harper government enthused in a backgrounder to its budget last spring.
The reason? "Canadians could be hoarding several billion pennies, along with other coins," the government speculated — a potential windfall for charities.
"Experience elsewhere has shown that charities can benefit by getting involved in the process of withdrawing low-denomination coins from circulation," it said.
"In New Zealand, when the five-cent coin was removed from circulation, non-profit organizations ran successful fundraising campaigns.
"During the changeover to the euro in 2002, charities in many eurozone countries successfully encouraged people to donate their local-currency coins."
Now it's Canadians' turn.
At the Shri Yoga centre in Westmount, you can plunk your pennies into a big glass vase on the reception desk to support the Hope & Cope cancer program at the Jewish General Hospital.
"One of our students is running it for us," said Barrie Risman, a senior teacher who co-owns the studio. "We started the collection Dec. 13 and it goes to the end of March.
"People are contributing. They're happy to. Pennies are expensive to produce, so it's a good idea to put them to use this way."
Recycling Canadian pennies for charity also has a global reach. Last fall, Craig Kielburger's Free the Children launched a national penny drive to fund clean-water projects in poor countries.
So far, they've collected enough pennies to fill 15 Olympic-size swimming pools or make a stack 100 kilometres high. The actual dollar amount will be announced Monday.
The campaign's slogan? "We Create Change."
"The penny struck us symbolically as being kind of like a child, a young person: often dismissed, often overlooked, thought to be powerless," Kielburger said Thursday.
"But when you bring enough of them together, my goodness, they can change the world."
Among 2,100 Canadian schools participating, Villa Maria High School for girls in Côte des Neiges collected $1,200 and Our Lady of Pompeii Elementary School in Montreal North amassed $325.
And donations will be taken all week at Royal Bank branches across the country, too. Free the Children hopes to get a mention in the Guinness World Records book for its efforts.
Back at Super Gala tailorshop, Carreira opened her cash register to show — surprise! — a drawerful of pennies. Wait. Didn't she say she doesn't take them?
"Some people still pay me 5 or 10 cents in pennies — they want to get rid of them," Carreira explained.
"I just recycle them at my neighbours. The bakery next door, they're happy to have them.
"People just use $20 bills now. Nobody has small change."
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story that also appeared in print said pennies have been in circulation in Canada since 1908. The Canadian penny began circulation in 1908, but British pennies were in circulation here before that.

Peter King's column will not use Redskins name
Peter King's MMQB column at Sports Illustrated, one of the most popular sports pages on the Internet, will no longer use the name Redskins when referring to the Washington team of the National Football League. The column will refer to the Redskins as the "Washington football team."
TheMMQB.com, an offshoot of SportsIllustrated.com, is a preeminent source for NFL news, and collectively, it's feature writers – made up of Robert Klemko, Greg Bedard, Jenny Vrentas and the site's founder, Peter King – account for more than 1.2 million Twitter followers.
MMQB isn't the only media outlet to refuse to use the name Redskins. The City Paper does not, nor does a radio station in the DC area. And there are several other examples.
Redskins owner Dan Snyder has said he will "never" change the name and the name remains very popular with Redskins fans, so motivation to change it is slight right now.

Luxe, an apothecary, offers shoppers the finest in bath and body products in an upscale, intimate environment. With an emphasis on individualized customer service, our customers enjoy the attention and knowledge of a small well-educated staff. At Luxe, our emphasis is on finding the perfect product to fit our customer's individual needs. For this reason, the Luxe staff is passionate and expert about the products we sell, strives to provide the best rather than the trendiest lines, and is available after-hours by appointment to provide one on one service to clients.
Fantastic Selection and Service – I just returned from my first visit to Luxe and was compelled to write this review.
As a recent transplant to the area, I have been looking for some expert skincare advice and I found it in Fiquet, the owner of Luxe. She gave me wonderful tips without ever making me feel pressured to buy anything.
I was pleasantly surprised at the wide variety of QUALITY men's skincare and shaving supplies that I have not been able to find anywhere in the Raleigh area. This is my favorite new store and I can't wait to go back!
1st appt, happy with service! – I really appreciate the brow tint/groom I received from Amanda. She listened to my concerns and seems genuinely interested in helping me achieve attractive
brows. I was pleased with my results and made another appointment. The store has lovely products, the staff seems nice.
A Great Place for Some Pampering – This was my first visit and I needed some make- up advice. Though I'm rarely found in upscale boutiques like this one, I felt comfortable rather than intimidated. Fiquet, the owner, was down-to-earth and friendly. She spent close to an hour with me and, although she was short-staffed due to sickness, I did not feel at all rushed even when another customer (apparently a regular) came in. Although it would have been pretty ungracious of me to leave without making a purchase, at no time did I feel pressured to. She made several recommendations, mostly indicating that they were products I might want to consider purchasing sometime in the future. It was just the kind of pleasant, low-key experience I am sure to want to repeat!
Not worth it – I've shopeed here several times - and probably never again. Last time I went in, intending on getting some gifts, and was completely ignored by the staff (I was the only customer) - it was like she didn't want me in there. I left quickly.
I just read your review & would like to personally apologize. I am not sure who was in (I assume it was a woman from your review) but I promise you that we were thrilled you were there. We love our customers and try our hardest to give everyone the personalized service that they deserve. That being said, we understand that people may want to browse on their own. Perhaps our attempt to give you space and allow you to browse without pressure came across as us not caring. I never want anyone to feel ignored or as if they are not welcome at Luxe and I sincerely apologize that you felt ignored. I hope that you will give us a chance to make it up to you.
Fiquet Bailey
Luxe Apothecary
Luxe did it again! – For the second year in a row I did ALL of my Christmas shopping at Luxe! The awesome staff always makes it easy for me. The best part, is that I even found some gifts for under $15! Thank you Laura, Jessica and Fiquet!
Thanks so much for the wonderful review! I am so happy to hear that you were able to get all of your shopping done at Luxe! Thank you for shopping with us, we appreciate your business!
THE BEST COSMETIC STORE IN NORTH CAROLINA! – I have been shopping at Luxe for quite awhile now and would not go anywhere else for my cosmetics and skin care. Fiquet Bailey, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable. She also has no problem teaching you how to apply make up and gives extremely easy to understand techniques. I also love that I never regret my purchases. You know how when you leave a department store with $100 worth of products because the counter girl pushed them on you and then when you get home you can't figure out how to apply them? Never at Luxe! They make sure I know how to use what I buy and only sell me what I need. That is why I go back time and again. I highly recommend Luxe!
My favore place! – Luxe is one of my favorite stores in the entire world! They have an awsome selection of skin care, the best staff, great treatments and a beautiful new website. Every single product in my bathroom, shower, perfume tray and make up bag comes from this store. I also like that they greet me by my name everytime I enter. Even my husband feels comfortable shopping at Luxe!
Amazing products, friendly atmosphere! – I love Luxe Apothecary! One of my friends took me to this store and I can't thank her enough. The owner gave me a few tips that made a huge difference in my makeup application and appearance. She could have sold me several items, but instead, gave me her honest opinion, and suggested I purchase only the items that would really make a difference. Because of her honesty and expertise, I'll be a customer for life!
A dream come true! Finally, after many years of searching I have at long last found the perfect beauty boutique!! I have virtually been to every boutique on the eastern seaboard from Miami to New York and NEVER have I had an experience as delightful as I did at Luxe Apothecary.
The perfect combination of professionalism, product knowledge and service in a friendly and downright fun atmosphere!
Go there if you can, you'll love it!
A Shopping Experience Not To Be Missed – Luxe Apothecary is a store unlike anywhere else. Stepping inside is like stepping into the must luxurious beauty destination in the area with a staff that reminds you of relaxing with your best gal pals. I don't feel the owner is pushy but rather extremely knowledgeable who's desire is to make sure you get what you need and leave feeling your best!

This is a yarn about a cloth, and what this cloth's unraveling means to the fabric of our political lives.
Our tale begins in the men's department of a Washington area department store where, while browsing the socks last weekend, I bumped into Trent Lott, the former Senate majority leader. The courtly Mississippi Republican was casually dressed but natty as ever. He is enjoying his post-Senate life as a lobbyist, but he was sad about a recent development: The Senate had just killed Seersucker Thursday.
