I would like to thank you for an absolutely fantastic online shopping experience. I am extremely happy with every aspect of our transaction, including the high quality product, the quick shipping, as well as the prompt and updated communication. I received e-mailed updates at every point during the transaction, leaving no room for guesswork when it came to my order. I am completely happy with my Bates 2184 Side Zip Enforcer Series Paratrooper Boots. The quality is second to none. The only unfortunate part about the whole thing is that I will probably wear these boots for years, and have to wait until I wear them out to buy another pair, which I will certainly do, once again from you. I look forward to using your store for the other fine products that you carry, and I will surely pass on the word that your store is the place to go."

The highly anticipated film 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' has been the topic of many conversations as of late.

As our pals at Moviefone analyze the new winners at the box office, one thing's clear: This was a very good weekend for movies starting with the letters J-U-S-T. So far, the Adam Sandler-Jennifer Aniston comedy 'Just Go With It' and the concert doc 'Justin Bieber: Never Say Never' are neck-and-neck. When final numbers are released Monday, positions could switch, but it looks like 'Just Go With ...

Since 2010 was such a steamy year for movies, we wanted to relive every heart-pounding moment one more time before turning the page. The ones that made our top 10 list include a scene where two ballerinas get hot and heavy, another with a red-hot kitchen encounter, one so racy it earned the film a dreaded NC-17 rating (at first) and also the sexiest action scene of the year.

'The Beaver,' in which Mel Gibson plays a depressed dad and toy executive who attempts to break out of his lethargy by communicating with the world via a beaver puppet, may seem like an odd comeback vehicle for the actor. On the other hand, given the amount of buzz that the movie -- directed by and co-starring Jodie Foster -- has been generating, it could be exactly what Gibson needs to resurre...

Harrison Ford, who's making the rounds promoting 'Morning Glory,' doesn't do much to combat the "curmudgeon" label he wears around his neck, although he does have a certain fondness for poking a little fun at 'Star Wars' creator George Lucas, so it's pretty tough to complain. The latest dollop of Ford crankiness comes from a new ABC interview in which the actor, 68, bemoans the lack of a Han So...

Hot Springs, AR (Sports Network) - Elfrid Payton tallied 20 points, seven assists and seven rebounds as the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns made easy work of the North Texas Mean Green, 74-55, in the first round of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament at Convention Center Court.
Payton also added two blocks and two steals for Louisiana (13-19), which will take on No. 1 seed Middle Tennessee in the quarterfinals on Saturday. Bryant Mbamalu and Alan-Michael Thompson netted 16 points apiece for the eighth- seeded Cajuns, while Shawn Long notched a double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds.
For ninth-seeded North Texas (12-20), Jordan Williams scored 19 points, Roger Franklin had 13 points and Tony Mitchell registered 10 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks.
Although Louisiana was outshot from the field in the first half by North Texas, 47.8 percent to 36.8 percent, it still took a 33-29 lead into intermission by attempting 15 more field goals in the opening 20 minutes.
The Cajuns cruised in the second half by improving their field goal efficiency to 50 percent.
Louisiana gained extra possessions by outrebounding North Texas (41-39) and winning the turnover battle (14-7).

Red Sox making Hurricane Irene plans for weekend
Aug 24, 2011, 6:40 PM EDT
With Hurricane Irene's projected path currently taking it through Massachusetts on Sunday evening, the Red Sox are talking with MLB about playing a preemptive doubleheader at Fenway Park on Friday or Saturday, the Boston Herald reports.
The A's will be in Boston for a three-game series scheduled to begin Friday night.
Nothing has been decided about the schedule just yet, but a Friday doubleheader would make the most sense, particularly if it looks like Irene might arrive in Connecticut and Rhode Island as a hurricane. If the storm encounters some resistance before then, perhaps Saturday would work instead.
"I think they're throwing around a lot of ideas that are just ideas," manager Terry Francona said. "Nobody wants to miss gates. The Red Sox don't, the league doesn't, for obvious reasons, and for competitive reasons, so do we. We'll do the best we can."

That's nice but how can we turn this into PhilliesChat? This is important.
- deepstblu - Aug 25, 2011 at 8:33 AM
The Phillies are in a similar situation, with the hurricane heading toward the Mid-Atlantic states in time for their series at home against the Marlins. While the Phils and Marlins have a common day off on 9/15 that could be used as a make-up date, it is the Phillies' only off day in September. It wouldn't be a big surprise to see the Phillies try to move up their Sunday game, which as of now looks like a sure washout.

- Eric Fay - Aug 24, 2011 at 8:03 PM
why would they miss gates?
- shaggylocks - Aug 24, 2011 at 8:45 PM
You make it a Friday double-header, you miss all the people who bought tickets for a night game but can't make it Friday afternoon because they're at work. You lose concession revenue. Technically not "gates," since I'm sure the games are already sold out, but Francona is a big league manager, not a semantics wizard.

Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Blake Griffin poured in 23 points and pulled down 16 rebounds to lead the Los Angeles Clippers to a 101-93 win over the Houston Rockets at Staples Center.
Darren Collison added 19 points off the bench and DeAndre Jordan scored 13 points to go with 10 boards and four blocks for the Clippers, winners in three straight.
Chris Paul scored 14 points and handed out nine assists in the win.
"Tonight we got stops when we needed to. It starts with defense," Griffin said.
Dwight Howard paced Houston with 23 points and 11 boards and James Harden added 18 for the Rockets, who had won two straight entering the contest.
Jordan Hamilton knotted things up at 76-76 with his 3-pointer 1 1/2 minutes into the fourth, but Darren Collison and Jared Dudley hit back-to-back treys to give the Clippers an 82-76 edge.
The teams traded buckets form there until Omer Asik slammed one home to pull the Rockets within 86-83 with just under five minutes remaining. Collison countered with a 12-footer to open a 13-6 swing that put the hosts on top 99-89 with 1:17 to go.
Houston never got closer than six the rest of the way.
"They made a couple of big shots and we missed shots. We couldn't generate anything. We didn't play a very complete game. We have to quit throwing the ball to the other team," said Rockets coach Kevin McHale said.
The Clippers opened the game on a 10-0 run, but led just 26-22 after 12 minutes. Houston used a 15-5 run in the second to go up 37-31. The Clippers scored 12 straight to take a 43-37 lead with 4:09 to go in the first half, but the Rockets closed the frame with an 11-3 push to go into the break leading 48-46.
Paul's layup put the Clippers in front 56-54 moments into the second half and neither side led by more than four the rest of the frame. LA owned a 74-73 lead entering the final frame.
Clippers guard Jamal Crawford suffered a left calf strain in the first half
and did not return ... The Clippers scored 30 points off 20 Rockets turnovers
... LA outscored Houston 54-46 in the paint ... Hamilton scored 16 points for
the Rockets ... Harden, who scored 43 points on 11-of-20 shooting on Tuesday,
went just 6-for-16 from the field on Wednesday.
Vanderbilt quarterback Patton Robinette said Friday he is walking away from football to enter medical school.
Regan Smith substituted for Kyle Larson in the No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet in Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway after Larson was sidelined due to additional medical tests following his fainting spell on Saturday.
If contradiction was an Olympic sport, Chip Kelly would certainly be medal-worthy judging by his performance at the NFL's owners meeting but the Eagles coach might have to settle for silver because Daniel Snyder's critics will take the gold every time.
There isn't much after that. The Miami Marlins are loaded up for a playoff push -- likely through a wild card spot -- and the New York Mets are up-and- coming but still raw. The Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, former powerhouses of the division, are going through rebuilds and won't contend anytime soon.
The Los Angeles Clippers have signed guard Lester Hudson to a 10-day contract.
Mathieu Perreault will be back in the lineup when the Winnipeg Jets host the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday.

Catholic Charities' 10th Annual Gala of the Arts Fundraiser for Emergency
By Shawn Gilley
Provided by Caruso Communications
Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago will host its 10th annual Gala of the Arts Friday, September 9, 2011 in Navy Pier's Grand Ballroom, Chicago. The fundraiser will support the on-going Emergency Assistance programs providing food, shelter, clothing, and supportive services for people in crisis in Cook and Lake Counties.
The Fundraiser will feature an encore performance by "Under the Streetlamp" and an intimate evening with the recent stars of Chicago's "Jersey Boys".
The Gala will hold an Art Invitational featuring 15 local and regional visual artists in an art show and sale. A portion of the artists' proceeds will support Catholic Charities' Emergency Assistance programs. Artists will offer a wide range of subjects and media and many are available for commission.
Guest will enjoy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres and an elegant dinner in the spacious and historic Grand Ballroom, as well as the opportunity to win a wide variety of raffle packages.
"We are grateful to the benefactors and artists who join us at this event to help Catholic Charities' Emergency Assistance programs fill an essential need in our community, serving people who experience an immediate and unexpected crisis," said Monsignor Michael M. Boland, President of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago. "People come to us when they have nowhere to turn, and we're ready to provide comprehensive services."
Last year, Catholic Charities, the largest Midwest social service agencies, provided nearly 200,000 households with emergency assistance through eight service centers located throughout Cook and Lake Counties.
Gloria and Jeff Schwartz of Oak Park will serve as the Gala chair couple for the second year.
"Jeff and I are honored to the be the chair couple for this year's fundraiser and hope to increase awareness and support for the ongoing emergency services that greatly impact so many lives at a time of unexpected need. Catholic Charities provides supportive services while treating clients with dignity and respect," said Gloria Schwartz.
Fifth Third Bank returns for the sixth year as the event's presenting sponsor.
The Gala will also feature an encore exhibit of photographs by guests of the Catholic Charities' Tuesday Night Suppers, who participate in the "Vision of My Life" photography program. For the past 10 years, the program has provided participants with basic photography instruction and disposable cameras to capture images of the city through their own eyes.
Cocktails and art sale begin at 6 p.m. Dinner and entertainment follow at 8 p.m. Tickets are $250 each. Black Tie optional. For more information or to purchase tickets, please call Ashley Owen at 312-655-7912 or contact her via email at firstname.lastname@example.com. Tickets may also be purchased online at www.galaofthearts.com.

That is such a lie about them providing emergency assistance when you call the Cicero office and ask help with rent or utility bill them tell you they don't do that anymore! If you don't belive me call for your self. They recieve United Way funding for it and don't provide it where does the moey go in the someones pocket!

Don't tell me that Roxy eats bugs!!??!!
Yes, Mystic Chick tells me that she is quite the avid bug-eater! LOL
ha! ha! this is so funny… a buggy smorgasbord for Roxy ….crunchy yet satisfying ;P yummmmy!
Roxy sez a big THANKS to Shelby for all the bugs!
Shelby said to tell Roxy not to eat them all at once, but to savor them like a fine wine. LOL
Of course, this advice is coming from a little dog who INHALES her doggy treats!!! LOL
Glad Roxy likes her special pick!
LOL! Hilarious. I take it Roxy is a dog who eats bugs? Great fun pick!
I'll make sure she doesn't try to squeeze them all to see what kind of filling they have and put the ones she doesn't like back in the box…
Roxy is the beautiful greyhound dog in Mystic Chick's photo. She and my toy poodle, Shelby (see my photo) have become friends through LB's site! Mystic Chick told me that Roxy LOVES to eat bugs of all kinds, so I thought she would enjoy having her own pick.
Y'all are GROSS! Poor Roxy!
OMG — Mystic Chick, I did that once with a box of chocolates when we were first married (34 yrs ago) & Bob has never let me live it down! He still teases me about it!!! LOL
and she makes the funniest face when she eats bugs
Just wait until she sees those baby turtles — she'll have her surprised/startled face on that day!!! LOL
my girls did that too so now I personally select the chocolates for their box… no surprises that way
I hope we don't miss the baby turtles… never did see the Mama turtle
You must live really close to the ocean for Mama Turtle to lay her eggs in your yard! Wow!
they're probably Painted turtles… they've visited us before… not close enuf to the ocean for the other kind.
Love this buggy pick for Roxy, silly dog. BTW has anyone read the Fresh Daily Blog and the good new that LB IS MOVING. YAAAAAAH. Big sale coming too. Hoorah, Hoorah, Hoorah for LB. (3 cheers).
Thanks, Evelyn! Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes, I did read on their blog that they are moving — don't know when yet. Does this mean they are "bugging out" ? LOL
Mystic Chick, how big are painted turtles?
4 1/2-6″ here's a pic of one:
Cute, I want one.
Thanks, DD! It looks small, is it?
Evelyn, do you mean you want a painted turtle or a bug? LOL
Sure don't need any bugs, we have plenty where we live, but I'd love to have a turtle. TeeHee
Just wanted to make sure! I don't want bugs around, not even if they are dipped in chocolate! LOL
Chocolate covered ants are good. You don't even taste the bug, you only taste the chocolate. LOL.
Maybe I could just eat the chocolate and leave the ants for Roxy!!!
the turtle in the pic looks pretty small… the ones that visit our yard are bigger
How does Roxy react to the turtles or does she just ignore them?
Now there's an idea Lynn. They are still pretty cute DD.
I would make the sacrifice (LOL) and eat the chocolate since it is bad for dogs. What a good person I am…….
Roxy is very curious and will go up and sniff the turtles but I watch her carefully so she doesn't hurt one accidentally
Maybe she considers them to be her pets!!! LOL
Oh, DD, how cute!! Thanks for the baby turtle pic!
Thanks, Ivy! Isn't that turtle sweet? Of course, not as sweet as Roxy!
Such a cute Pick!
Please keep us posted re: the baby turtles.
I'll keep an eye out for the baby turtles and hope they don't all end up in the pool!
Thanks, Harriet!
Turtles in your pool — that would be fun, Mystic Chick!
Has Roxy eaten all these bugs yet? LOL
Roxy is still savoring them bugs
How cute!!!
LOL Turtles in the pool?! That would be so cute! Except, of course, when they decide to relieve themselves in the pool! LMAO!
Thanks, Jill!
Ivy, what if they were snapping turtles?!?! OUCH! LMAO Hope Mystic Chick's hubby doesn't swim nude!
Shelby is glad to hear that Roxy is taking her time enjoying the bugs she selected especially for Roxy!!! Crunch, crunch, crunch
I'm more concerned with the effects the pool chemicals would have on them and them getting trapped in the filter basket or getting sucked up by the vacuum robot.
ROTFLMFAO!!!! (Insert hysterically laughing smiley here!)
DD, I thought about that too, how the chemicals would affect them. Probably not a good thing.
I'm still laughing at DD's hubby jumping into the pool (naked), not knowing it is full of hungry snapping turtles who have become immune to the pool chemicals and are too large to be sucked up by the vacuum robot!!! ROTFLMAO (Did you notice how I embellished a little?)
Lynn, it is your pick , so we just have to let you take a little creative license….besides, it's funnier that way. ROTFLOL
that quite a story ChickyLE! luckily we just got him new swim trunks for Father's Day
Thank you, Harriet! Perhaps I might have a career in writing fiction!
Do you think our hubbies wonder why we are always rolling on the floor laughing? LOL
Whew — just in time, DD! Those snappers can be wicked! LOL
We might have needed to send in AquaKitty to rescue your hubby!!! LOL
We laugh and visit here, so we can deal with all the rest out there.
Exactly, Harriet!!
AquaK can rescue the turtles
Ivy — you changed you pix!!!!!! I love it!!!!! Now I can see your beautiful face! That must be your pretty daughter with you! She looks like a true princess! What is her name?
Lucky Roxy!
BTW, do we have any underwater AqK stories yet?
I was thinking that AquaKitty would have to rescue your husband!!! LOL
I think AK has had all of his adventures above water so far, Chicky Cat. Got any ideas?
Thanks, glad you like this!
I'm more concerned about the turtles …gotta get outside while the weather's good …c y'all!

Buffalo, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Will Regan scored a season-high 25 points and added 10 rebounds, as the Buffalo Bulls outlasted the Kent State Golden Flashes, 71-60, in Mid-American Conference action at Alumni Arena.
Regan shot 8-of-15 from the field (including 3-of-6 from 3-point range) and drained all six of his free-throw attempts for Buffalo (9-5, 3-1 MAC), which has won five of six. Joshua Freelove scored 14 points for the hosts, while Javon McCrea tallied 12 points, seven rebounds and five assists.
For Kent State (11-6, 2-2), Devareaux Manley poured in 17 points and Kris Brewer netted 11.
The Golden Flashes shot 50 percent from the field in the first half while holding Buffalo to just 37. 5 percent shooting, but their lead was just two, 29-27, heading into intermission. The Bulls kept the contest close by shooting 8-of-10 at the free-throw line in the opening stanza.
Trailing by two early in the second half, Buffalo took control after piecing together an 18-4 run to take a 12-point advantage with 10:25 remaining, and Kent State never threatened the lead from that point forward.
Buffalo took advantage of its opportunities at the charity stripe, draining 21-of-23 attempts, while Kent State was a meager 6-of-13 from the line.
Vanderbilt quarterback Patton Robinette said Friday he is walking away from football to enter medical school.
Joey Logano will start on the pole for the STP 500 after topping Ryan Newman in Friday's qualifying at Martinsville Speedway.
If contradiction was an Olympic sport, Chip Kelly would certainly be medal-worthy judging by his performance at the NFL's owners meeting but the Eagles coach might have to settle for silver because Daniel Snyder's critics will take the gold every time.
The Chicago White Sox claimed right-hander Kyle Drabek, a former top pitching prospect, off waivers from the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday.
Longtime Jazz announcer Rod Hundley died Friday at the ago of 80.
Florida Panthers forward Nick Bjugstad underwent season-ending back surgery on Friday.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.
