Scheich Sets Career Assist Mark in Loss to #2 Limestone
SALISBURY, NC -- Catawba closed out its men's lacrosse season with an 18-5 loss to second-ranked Limestone on Saturday night at Shuford Stadium. The visiting Saints improve to 16-1, while the Catawba Indians finish up at 7-8.
Steven Ridolfo (Charlotte, NC/Providence HS/Gettysburg), one of a dozen Catawba seniors, led the Indians with two goals and an assist. Senior John Scheich (Waxhaw, NC/Weddington HS) assisted on Catawba's first two goals of the game to set a new career record with 86. Junior Adam Hebert (Charlotte, NC/Charlotte Catholic HS) had a goal and an assist.
Limestone wasted little time in grabbing the lead as Kevin Reisman won the opening face-off and Todd Nakasuji scored within nine seconds. The Saints were up 3-0 before Scheich fed Ridolfo and Hebert for goals to pull Catawba within 3-2 at the 6:15 mark of the opening quarter. Limestone went on a six-goal run after that until Ridolfo scored again with 4:28 left before the half.
Senior Tyler Ulrich (Ephrata, PA/Ephrata HS) scored the third straight goal for Catawba to start the second half to close the gap to 8-5 at the 12:31 mark of the quarter. The Saints scored three goals over the next three and half minutes to regain control then pulled away in the final quarter.
Nakasuji tallied four goals for Limestone, while Kyle Rhatigan scored three goals and added three helpers. Joshua Williams and Mike Messenger also picked up three goals for the Saints.
Limestone held a decided 52-20 edge in shots with goalie Patrick Sheridan making just three saves. Reisman went 19-of-25 in face-offs for the Saints.
Senior goalie Pete Wesselman (Charlotte, NC/Providence HS/Stevenson) played the first quarter for the Indians and stopped nine shots. Freshman Ryan Applegate (Ponte Vedra Beach, FL/Ponte Vedra HS) recorded a dozen saves over the final three quarters.

The sky in parts of eastern P.E.I. turned hazy this afternoon.
Smoke in the skies over Prince Edward Island caused by fires in Quebec have prompted Environment Canada and the Island's environment department to issue a special air quality statement for Prince Edward Island issued.
Wilma MacKinnon of Mount Buchanan said the haze was very noticable while the air smelled smoky.
"I just took the laundry in and it doesn't smell too bad,'' MacKinnon said. "Guess I'll go close the north windows.''
An employee at Cooper's Red and White in Eldon said the air took on a hazy, bluish look.
"You can see it in the air and you can smell it a little bit,'' said Clara Vincent, adding that the haze was quite the topic of conversation at the store Tuesday afternoon.
"Everyone wants to know where the fire is.''
Environment Canada says a ridge of high pressure is driving smoke from southeastern Quebec southwest over the Gulf of St. Lawrence and on to the Island.
"This has been observed on satellite and at several air quality monitors around the province," Environment Canada says.
"We will be monitoring this closely."
On Wednesday, Environment Canada said winds will shift around to southwest ahead of a trough approaching from Quebec and will flush out any lingering smoke by late in the day.
One resident in Meadow Bank told The Guardian she could see a haze in the distance developing over Charlottetown.

Nokia's new Lumia smartphones will go on sale in November, taking on the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S III ahead of the Christmas season, but some analysts said the prices for the colourful handsets looked high.
When Nokia launched the Lumia 920 and 820 earlier this month, the market was disappointed by a lack of launch dates and prices for the Windows-powered models, which are vital for the Finnish company's survival.
Nokia published the first pricing data on its local websites on Thursday, with the Lumia coming in cheaper than the new iPhone 5 but higher than the Samsung Galaxy in some markets. However, the prices are set by local retailers, who buy handsets in bulk from Nokia.
In Sweden, the 32 gigabyte Lumia 920 will sell for around SEK5700 ($838).
That compares with a starting price of 4515 crowns for a 16GB Galaxy S III on the Swedish site of Expansys, one of the leading online phone stores in Europe. The 32GB iPhone 5 is due to sell at SEK6995.
Adding 16GB of memory costs about $10 to phone makers but consumers pay a lot more. Apple charges about $100 more for the 32GB iPhone 5 than for the 16GB model.
In Italy, the Lumia 920 will sell for €599 euros ($743), compared with €529 for the cheapest 16GB Samsung SIII on the Italian Expansys site. However, Italy's top carrier TIM will sell the Lumia 920 for less than the Galaxy.
"Nokia will find it difficult to command a premium over Samsung's Galaxy S III, which is the pricing benchmark for a non-Apple flagship smartphone," said Ben Wood, head of research at British consultancy CCS Insight.
The Galaxy S III, which runs on Google's Android platform, launched in May and sold 20 million in the first three months. Apple sold more than 5 million iPhone 5 models in the first three days of sales.
The Lumia 920 and 820 run on Microsoft's new Windows Phone 8 software and both companies are being watched carefully to see whether they can capture market share back from Apple, Samsung and other Android phones.
Once the world's biggest mobile phone maker, Nokia fell behind rivals in smartphones and has racked up more than €3 billion in operating losses in the last 18 months.
Windows Phone powers around 3 per cent of the global smartphone market, while the Android platform controls two-thirds of sales. Apple has around a quarter.
While people have been queuing for the latest iPhone, with more than 10,000 Belgians pre-registering before a local price has even been set, Nokia will partly lure back customers on price.
When it launched, analysts said the curved-edged Lumia, which comes in several bright colours, lacked the "wow" factor or game-changing features to challenge the incumbent rivals.
Ovum analyst Nick Dillon said, "Hardware-wise they are pretty similar, it would be hard for Nokia to justify that extra cost to consumers."
In Germany, Vodafone will sell the Nokia Lumia 920 for €649. It sells the iPhone for €820, the 32GB Galaxy SIII for €740 and the 16GB Galaxy for €530.
Nokia's volatile shares closed 2.7 per cent higher at €2.05 in Helsinki, regaining some of the lost ground from the previous trading session.

San Jose (Calif.) Valley Christian athlete R.J. Stone (6-3, 211) is nearing double-digit offers, with a big rush of offers coming this spring.
"I have offers from Fresno State, San Jose State, Utah, Colorado State, Nevada, Hawaii, San Diego State, Oregon State and Arizona State," said Stone.
The Bay Area native said the Pac-12 has his attention.
"I would say that the Pac-12 offers stand out a bit more than the others, but not necessarily that much more of a standout," said Stone.
Stone has only visited nearby San Jose State but is hoping to check out a few schools this spring and summer.
A few more schools have been in contact with him.
"I'm hearing from Boise State, Washington State and California," said Stone. "They've all shown interest."
Stone said one school has been a dream school, and his sister plays volleyball there.
"I would say that Oregon was a dream school growing up," said Stone.
Stone is ranked as a tight end but schools like him for the other side of the ball.
"Most schools have been offering me as an outside linebacker," said Stone.

That includes the course and the trail. The police are going to start writing citations soon if they keep getting complaints. This is hot and relates to all forms of smoking !! Pass the word to those that don't get on the scene. If you see someone smoking, please educate them.

The Bluths are back. Six years after Arrested Development's original run, TV's most eclectic family will return for a fourth season on May 26 with 15 new episodes, all available simultaneously on Netflix. Andrew Ryan catches up with the show's cast
PORTIA DE ROSSI: Playing the scheming Lindsay was the last acting hurrah for Portia de Rossi. The Australian actress was a workhorse before AD, with multiple credits in film and TV and a four-year stint on Ally McBeal, but since the show wrapped in 2006, she's been conspicuous by her absence. PORTIA DE ROSSI AS LINDSAY BLUTH FUNKE: Things can only improve for Lindsay in the new spate of episodes. In the season-three closer, she learned she was not actually Michael's twin; in fact she wasn't even a Bluth at all and was actually three years older than she believed.
(SAM URDANK/Associated Press)
JASON BATEMAN: A rare example of a former child star (remember The Hogan Family?) that made good, Bateman's career has soared since playing Michael Bluth. Since 2006, Bateman has enjoyed top billing in more than two dozen feature films, most often comedies. JASON BATEMAN AS MICHAEL BLUTH: In the third-season wrap-up, Michael finally disengaged from the family business and was hugely relieved that all charges against his father were dropped. Expect season four to open with a nasty family reunion.
(Art Streiber/FOX)
JEFFREY TAMBOR: At 68, the acting veteran continues to work steadily in both film and television. Most recently he appeared opposite Al Pacino in the HBO movie Phil Spector. JEFFREY TAMBOR AS GEORGE BLUTH SR.: The duplicitous Bluth family patriarch was finally cleared on all charges of treason and embezzlement (even though he was undeniably guilty of both). George was last spotted in the season closer, when he crashed son Michael's vacation in Cabo San Lucas.
(Isabella Vosmikova/FOX)
MICHAEL CERA Hailing from Brampton, Ont., Cera showed great promise post-AD, courtesy of well-received performances in films such as Juno, Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. The bad news was that he also appeared in such clunkers as the abysmal prehistoric-era comedy Year One. MICHAEL CERA AS GEORGE-MICHAEL BLUTH: Meek-mannered George-Michael was finally starting to assert himself in the sendoff and was rather nonplussed to discover that Maeby, the object of his adolescent desire, was not in fact his cousin.
(Joseph Viles/FOX)
WILL ARNETT: The Toronto native has been hit and miss in his acting choices since attaining a modicum of fame playing the frustrated magician George Oscar Bluth, a.k.a. "Gob." On screen, he has grinned through such stinkers as Blades of Glory, G-Force and The Rocker. Arnett is usually funnier in TV roles, whether in guest turns on 30 Rock or The Office, or starring in his own NBC sitcom Up All Night. WILL ARNETT AS GEORGE OSCAR BLUTH: At last check, Gob had seemingly abandoned his magician career and was content to live off the avails of the family fortune.
(PHIL McCARTEN/REUTERS)
TONY HALE: As the woebegone Buster, he was understandably needy and neurotic. How many TV characters have had their hand bitten off by a rogue seal? Hale has kept working since AD stopped shooting in 2006. Currently he's a simpering personal aide in the HBO political comedy Veep. TONY HALE AS BUSTER BLUTH: Is this the end of Buster? When last seen, he was swept off the Queen Mary and cast into the roiling ocean waters–his second greatest fear. Buster's first greatest fear comes when he comes face-to-face with his old seal nemesis.

Students participating at a past Urban Walk for Haiti
A three-mile walk through the streets of Cambridge, MA, on April 4 may help change the lives of five families living in some of the poorest communities in the poorest country in the western hemisphere.
Organized by a group of high school students and community activists, the annual Urban Walk for Haiti brings awareness of the dire situation faced by millions of Haitians forced to live with homelessness, hunger pains, HIV/AIDS, malaria, unsanitary water supplies, and other dire circumstances caused by poverty. Since the first walk was held six years ago, the event has raised over $100,000 for PIH projects in Haiti. This year, the organizers hope to raise at least $25,000, or enough to build five houses for impoverished families.
Poor patients are often forced to live in badly constructed houses.
A house built by Zanmi Lasante's Program on Social and Economic Rights.
Having a specific goal, like building houses, can help inspire people, says Michelle Levin, one of the organizers of the event. Last fall, four devastating hurricanes battered and flooded Haiti, destroying many houses in the Central Plateau and Artibonite regions, where Zanmi Lasante (PIH's partner organization in Haiti) currently works. The poorest residents were generally the families hardest hit, as their houses tended to be poorly constructed to start with. Connecting the greater Boston community with the tragedies caused by the floods and giving a face to the Haitian community can help inspire participants to take part in a way to help those who suffered the most, says Levin. In past years, the walk has raised money for education and food projects, as well as electricity and lights for a health clinic.
In addition to raising money and awareness, the Walk for Haiti is also a celebration of PIH's work in Haiti as well as the Haitian community, says Jennifer Schongalla, a New Hampshire teacher who is helping to organize the walk. The organizers are planning to have a strong presence of the Haitian community at the walk, as well as Haitian food, music, and dancing. PIH Medical Director Joia Mukherjee will also speak at the event. The event will be held on Saturday, April 4, starting at noon at 29 Mt Auburn St. in Cambridge. For more information, please visit http://walkforhaiti.org.
Get ideas for organizing your own event to support social justice, health care, and the work of PIH.

|While I so did think, Thomas Chatterton Jupiter Zeus did nestle more close in my arms, and I was glad for him as he is. He is so lovely and his ways are ways of gentleness. We went on along the dim trail. There by the dim trail grow the honeysuckles. I nod to them as I go that way. In the daytime I hear them talk with sunbeams and the wind. They talk in shadows with the little people of the sun. And this I have learned -- grown-ups do not know the language of shadows. Angel Mother and Angel Father did know, and they taught me. I wish they were here now--here to listen with me. I do so want them. Sometimes they do seem near. I have thinks sometimes kind God just opens the gates of heaven and lets them come out to be guardian angels for a little while.

The trouble with Valentine's Day?
It just plain stinks!
Kate Hamilton should know. Dumped by her boyfriend and burnt out by her job, she's returned to Gospel, Idaho, where a Mountain Momma Crafters' original poetry reading is about as good as it gets on a Friday night. Then her first attempted seduction of a hunky stranger is completely rejected. So much for her self-esteem!
It turns out that Rob Sutter, former ice hockey madman, owner of Sutter's Sports - and the hunky stranger who told her to get lost - has been more than burned by love and isn't looking for a relationship. But then he and Kate find themselves in an ultra-compromising position in the M&S Market, giving the phrase "clean up in aisle five" a whole new meaning and causing a whole lot of gossip in Gospel.

"Chick Lit as it was jntended"
Rachel Gibson does a fabulous job of writing fun and steamy books that keep you interested without having to think or concentrate too hard. The Trouble with Valentine's Day is just that. Not too much drama, but enough for some substance. GREAT performance by Kathleen Early. Good read when you need an out loud giggle and a little fantasy indulgence. Fun.
"Very Little Humor"
I usually love Rachel Gibson's book for the humor, so I was disappointed in The Trouble with Valentine's Day. I also didn't really connect to either former private detective Kate (mid 30s) or Rob, a retired professional hockey player.
When Kate goes to Gospel, Idaho to spend time with family, she keeps running into Rob, who has opened a sporting goods store next to her grandfather's grocery store. They seem too ready to believe the worst of the other, due to their first unfortunate meeting, which I found annoying and rather boring.
Normally I enjoy a small town setting but Gospel seemed to be the hometown of every redneck, bigot, gossipmonger and desperate widow in the state of Idaho. Not horrible yet absolutely not up to this author's usual standards.
"Great story and reader"
After after a few duds with good recommendations, it was a delight to listen to this book. Funny, believable and flawed characters -- in a way that is relatable and didn't make me want to repeatedly smack anyone for sheer stupidity.
"Not as good as the others.."
I love the RG stories as each brings in another character of the infamous Chinooks NHL team. After reading it, I figured that this was an early book in her career, but no! This is a 2012, so it feels like the writer regressed a bit and was really struggling to find her wit and creativity in this book. In this one, the hero is again a former hockey player who was forced out of the NHL by a horrible crime committed against him. Our heroine, Kate, happens to move to his town to be with her grandpa and of course they meet (awkwardly) and it goes on from there. How will they get together, will they reconcile, etc... But the story falls flat. It just doesn't go anywhere, and the characters were not really believable or endearing to me.
More humor, brand-name dropping and, well, STORY. RG did this so well in her other books and it brought some good humor to the stories. I would have enjoyed more characters, conflicts, action or character development. The writing is repetitive. She uses and reuses the same descriptions, reactions, and just didn't seem to hit the mark. I would like to see more realistic reactions to curve balls that life throws at these two. It's so obviously going to be a HEA, and is fairly predictable along the way...
Narrator was just ok, pacing pretty good. She was better than some of her other attempts and certainly better than other performers that RG has chosen for her books.
Light, fluff for a time when you're busy and not hoping to get lost in the joy of listening... a good driving book.
Two more in my wish list -- hope they are getting better with age.
Rachel Gibson does it again! Her love stories make you laugh out loud. She makes you hate to finish the book.
"Fun and flirty"
This fun is fun and flirty. Characters were very relatable. Shows modern and old fashioned thinking.
There's no other word for Rachel Gibson except perfect. These are great characters in a cute small town. Thank you for finally getting it in audio!!!!
Perfect narrator.
The last few chapters were rushed. It seemed as tho I skipped a couple of chapters when Epilogue started.
This story was so enjoyable and entertaining. The narrator was fantastic! The characters were humorous and likable. Definitely a must listen!

Out 5th May, 'Magnetica' is the new album from Quantic, as announced by The Guardian alongside a premiere of the lead single,"Duvidó" feat. Pongo Love. This LP finds British born Will "Quantic" Holland revisiting his roots as an electronic producer, blending cutting-edge and distinctive production with elements of folk, reggae, soul, highlife, cumbia and more, and demonstrating the rare quality and artistry that has enchanted fans and tastemakers across the world, over more than a decade of releasing music on Tru Thoughts.
The early support for "Duvidó" – a party cut featuring iconicAngolan/Portuguese vocalist Pongo Love, whom many will know from some of Buraka Som Sistema's biggest hits – has been phenomenal, with diverse radio play including Gilles Peterson,Radcliffe & Maconie, Lauren Laverne and Nemone (BBC 6Music),Toddla T's Girls Music (MOS), Jason Bentley (KCRW) and more; plus50,000+ video views. Early confirmed coverage for the LP includes Q, MOJO, Clash, Songlines, Record Collector, and a Guardian print feature; and having recently DJ'd and played live in Australia, New Zealand and at SXSW, Quantic is looking forward to an extensive live tour.
'Magnetica' is the first Quantic album under his main solo moniker since 2006's 'An Announcement To Answer', and in the interim this prolific artist has raised the stakes further with acclaimed side-projects including The Quantic Soul Orchestra, the Combo Bárbaro,Quantic & Alice Russell, Flowering Inferno and Ondatrópica(Soundway). Having spent the last seven years living in Colombia (in both Calí and Bogotá), a base from which he has worked with many of the finest musicians from Latin America and the Caribbean, on'Magnetica' he now casts his net even wider to take in the sounds, styles and languages of the UK, Ethiopia, Jamaica, Brazil, Angola and beyond.
The LP opener and title track is an energetic, sub-bass-heavy instrumental which sets out the stall for an album of twists and turns and discovery. "I wanted to have the opening theme to this... this foray... as something that was quite electric in its energy. Working more withAbleton live and synths and beats - after quite a long time away from it, it was refreshing and fun to jam out with some electronic instruments", saysHolland. The sound he has coined here is a meeting of worlds; revelling in recent technological advancements and the opportunities they offer for innovation, while drawing heavily on his years of immersion in authentic, analogue, live tropical soul music.
In a bittersweet dose of psychedelic folk, label-mate Alice Russell gives a beautifully wistful turn among the glistening, banjo-led layers of "You Will Return" (an alternate version of which drops upfront on Record Store Day), and the British soul queen is just one of many vocalists to lace this album with their vitality and variety. Dereb The Ambassador's Amharic lyrics on "Arada" reflect his Ethiopian origins and the punky energy of his own band, of whom Holland is a fan; Iara Renno brings a tale of simple Brazilian country life on "Caruru", which spirals gleefully into a dubbed-out haze. Colombian Nidia Góngora, a regular collaborator, contributes to the brief and beautifully written "La Plata" - which speaks in Spanish of money - and the danceable"Muevelo Negro", which sold out on upfront vinyl in 2013. Reggae starShinehead hooked up with Holland in LA to lay down the effervescent"Spark It"; Thalma De Freitas voices the sensual, harmonically delicate "Aguas De Sarongo". Anibal Velasquez, from the Colombian dance music hub of Barranquilla, provides vocals and accordion on "La Callejera" - a vivacious ode to a woman of the streets, who lives to party; now in his late '70s, he still oozes the charm and lust for life that makes Holland refer to him as a "super charismatic guy who has this unique style, this very cheeky approach".
While this album features an exciting return to electronic production,Holland has, as ever, assembled a stunning crew of instrumental cohorts to add their unique live energy. Colombians Fruko and Michi Sarmiento, both legends of the Fuentes label throughout the '60s and '70s, are reunited on the sparkling instrumental cut "Descarga Cuantica" (which premiered upfront on Gilles Peterson's BBC 6Music show); while the string arrangements on "You Will Return" & "Aguas De Sarongo" come care of the renowned Miguel Atwood-Ferguson.
Among the melting pot of international styles that the world has come to expect from this endlessly curious musician, on 'Magnetica', Holland also finds space to celebrate the homegrown English folk influences of his upbringing – notably on the mesmeric album closer "Painting Silhouettes". An audiophile to the last, in addition to pushing himself forward through experiments in uncharted rhythms, tempos, time signatures and cultures, Holland has also excelled himself in the integrity of the album's sound quality, consciously working to unite these diverse elements – sonic souvenirs of his own creative and personal journey - into a thoroughly cohesive listening experience which pops out of the speakers like never before, even by his own exceptional standards.

With all the Lecavalier trade talk, the question of the day is this: Is Vincent Lecavalier over rated?
Yesterday I read someone who rated Lecavalier one of the top 10, possibly even a top 5, player in the NHL? Is he this good? Is he even top 20? I am not so sure.
The evidence for Lecavalier being one of the best in the NHL would include the fact that he has won a Stanley Cup, the fact that he has had a 50 goal season and a 108 point season and the fact that in addition to being skilled he can play a physical game. But is this enough to rank him among the elite?
While there is no doubt he is an very good hockey player there is ample evidence to conclude that maybe he isn't among the best of the best.
In his 10 seasons in the NHL (if you include the first half of this season) he led his team in scoring just three times and was second just two other times.
In his 10 seasons in the NHL he has just two seasons where he achieved a point per game pace.
He has only twice scored more than 35 goals or more than 80 points.
In the season when the Lightning won the Stanley Cup Lecavalier finished 4th in team scoring in both the regular season and the playoffs.
In 752 career NHL games he has just 290 goals and 640 points which is good but unspectacular. For example, Eric Lindros, who also had size and played a physical game, had 372 goals and 865 points in about the same number of games (760).
This year will be just his 4th all-star game appearance, has never won an MVP award and only once was named to the NHL's second all-star team.
Save for a season or two he has played mostly on bad teams.
That is a lot of evidence against Lecavalier being an elite level star NHL player which many people believe he is. So, is Lecavalier over rated and where would you rank Lecavalier among NHL forwards? Is he worth his 11 year $85 million contract extension he signed in the summer? If you were Tampa, would you consider trading him? If you were Bob Gainey would you trade two or more roster players, a top prospect and a first round pick for Lecavalier?

The Peek-A-Poo is a "designer dog," the Peek-A-Poo is a cross between a Pekingese and a Toy Poodle. They are loyal and affectionate and can be quite protective of their owners. Like most designer dogs, the Peek-A-Poo was developed to be a companion for people with allergies. The Peek-A-Poo generally gets along with everyone in his family. They do well with older, more considerate children, and should be socialized and raised with children to be accepting of them. Peek-A-Poos behave well with other dogs and pets. The Peek-A-Poo has an average shoulder height of 11 inches and weighs between 8-12 pounds. Some can be smaller. They have a soft, cotton-textured coat which can be white, brown, black, silver, or a mixture thereof. It has a single layered coat with little dander and sheds little to none, making it an excellent match for those with allergies.

CHRIS McCann believes getting through the transfer window with the squad intact will be the key to keeping Burnley's play-off dream alive.
After climbing to the top of the chasing pack with three league wins on the spin at the start of the calendar year, the gap widened by one point to five after the 10-man Clarets suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Birmingham on Saturday.
Burnley felt they were served an injustice, and have since lodged an appeal against Dean Marney's second half dismissal for a challenge with Paul Robinson.
If successful, they will avoid a three-match ban for the midfielder.
But in the long-term, McCann says it is vital for the club to get through Thursday's transfer deadline unscathed.
"I think it's important to keep everyone together if we're going to have a crack at the play-offs," said the long-serving midfielder.
"There's no point in getting this far and starting to lose some players that are key to the team.
"There are a lot of players who are out of contract who play every week. It would be a blow to lose somebody.
"It's vital to keep them if we're going to have a push for the play-offs."
McCann, who helped the club win promotion via the play-offs in 2008/09, added: "There's expectation at the club and we've got to live up to it.
"There's always going to be pressure when you play and we want to do as best we can. We want to be in the top six come May.
"I think it's just part and parcel of the game, there's pressure every single week when you get out onto that pitch and we've got to handle it, and I'm sure we're capable of doing that."
And the Dubliner sees it as a good sign that there has been little transfer talk of substance involving the current Clarets.
"It's been pretty quiet about the club, everyone goes about their day to day business," said McCann.
"From what I've seen of the transfer window so far I don't think there's too much business to be done. Everyone comes in every day and works as hard as possible because we have a job to do and our focus is on the job here – we don't pay too much attention to what goes on around us.
"That's for the board to decide."
Contracts are another matter in the board's hands.
McCann is one of nine senior players – including seven first team squad regulars – whose current deals expire this summer.
The club has entered into early negotiations in the hope of avoiding wholesale changes for next season.
"I've been happy here all my career. People have speculated before about what I'm going to do," said the Dubliner, who has been with the Clarets since he was 16.
"I'm a Burnley player and I'm happy to wear that shirt every week, keep playing football and playing with a smile on my face again."
Of his own contract situation, he added: "My agent's handling that. I think he's in negotiations with the club.
"That's out of my hands, I let them deal with all the stuff.
"I had a year of that when I was coming back from injury and I don't want to do that again, so I leave that to the people who know what they're doing."

There's Something Happening Around Here....
We expect the 2014 grape crop to be smaller than most anytime in the past 5 years due to the tough winter. Some varieties have done well, several others less well. We will know more about the potential size of the crop in mid-June,, 2014.
BRANDY! Yep. Wisconsites love to drink their brandy, and now they have a local brandy to drink. The Old Sugar Distillery, 931 E. Main St., downtown, Madison has released it's "Brandy Station." It was an initial small batch and nearly sold out the first day it was available. Word is out that it is smooth, yet powerful. Check out the powerhorse on its label.
And in case you were wonderiing where the grapes came from to make this memorable nectar of the gods, just ask us. Why of course it was from Mitchell Vineyard. Next year Old Sugar will release a much larger batch, so watch for it in the early fall of 2012.
Look at what is available in the different seasons:
Spring Call ahead for our pruning class, held late April, early May each year.
Summer If you would like to visit our farm please call ahead to make sure we will be working that day. For parties or weddings please call far in advance to work out logistics.
Autumn We will be having two winemaking classes at Mitchell vineyard this Fall. Will be scheduled in August, 2014. See "Winemakng Class" on the sidebar for more information. Cost is $20/per person. Please bring your questions, whether about hydrometers, how to grow grapes, trellis systems, when to pick grapes, or how to bring a bottle of wine to the vineyard to have us taste it with you. Cheers!
Winter While the vineyard is covered with snow, the vines and nature lovers need time to rest and bath in thoughts of the warm, glorious days of summer lately past, and the fresh fields and vineyard of spring anew.

CHICAGO The United States Mint may be dealing with a recession, but there's one mint that hasn't been hit by the economic slump.
Gum, mints and breath fresheners market has seen sales grow since 2007, according to recent research by Mintel. The category has increased more than 10% and is expected to grow through 2014. The growth is driven by functional and environmentally-friendly packaging (50% and 19%, respectively), in addition to unique flavors (43%).
Despite the emphasis on health, breath-freshening remained the most important function of gum and mints in the minds of Mintel's survey respondents. Nearly four times as many respondents cited this compared with a healthy function (43% vs. 13%).
"Although this market is not entirely recession proof; gum, mints and breath fresheners are faring well due to their low price points and the feeling that consumers are getting a small treat," said Bill Patterson, senior analyst at Mintel. "In addition, innovative packaging and unique flavors are aiding in the upward sales momentum."

Big Smo
Schmitt's Saloon
Thursday, March 13, 2014 from 6:30 PM to 11:00 PM (EDT)
Schmitt's Saloon and Davisson Brothers Music Hall present Big Smo
"You can tell when something's real," says the man known simply as Big Smo. "You can tell when it's true. And I think what's made us successful and gotten us this far is that we're just real people, down-home country folk who really love to make music, and people see that."
That success has been as hard won as it is impressive. What began as two friends—Smo and Orig the DJ—experimenting with samples, beats and lyrics in a makeshift home studio has turned into four independent CDs and hundreds of tour stops before over-the-top crowds from mud parks in Florida to night clubs in Vegas. He and his band—Orig, vocalists Alexander King and Haden Carpenter, guitarist Travis Tidwell, bassist Eric Flores and drummer Ryan Peel—have opened for Brantley Gilbert, appeared at 2012′s Bamajam on a bill with Kid Rock and Jamey Johnson, and rocked the crowd at 2013′s CMA Music Fest in Nashville. Perhaps most impressive, though, has been the phenomenal success of their breakthrough indy hit, "Kickin' It In Tennessee." Its video, a slice of real life shot on a shoestring at Big Smo's 32-acre Middle Tennessee farm, has earned well over five million YouTube hits.
Now, with the release of his major-label debut, Kuntry Livin', the man known as the Boss of the Sticks is poised to take it all up a very big notch.
18 and up!
Official home to Owen Schmitt. The saloon not only represents him but the entire state of West Virginia. The entire saloon is comprised of barn wood and memorabilia from all over the state. Some already say its a museum in its self. A must see attraction!

Home » Energy Companies » Indiana » Tipton
No matter where you live in Tipton, whether you own or rent, you'll have to have basic necessities like electricity, water, heating and cooling. In order to get these services you'll need to contact local energy companies and set up services.
Below is a self-help guide to finding and selecting the ideal Tipton energy companies and services, and how to set up and manage your accounts.
Types of Energy Companies in Tipton
Depending on your location in Tipton there might be a variety of energy companies to choose from, even ones which use new sustainable energy sources. Listed here are three common types oftypes of Tipton energy companies.
City-Owned Energy Companies in Tipton
City-owned and operated energy companies are very common in Tipton. The city and its officials undertake the responsibility of delivering energy services, setting them up in apartments and homes, installing meters and managing client accounts for city residents.
City-owned energy companies in Tipton are non-profit, but they hold the power to limit the amount of competing companies which come into your area.
Privately Owned Tipton Energy Companies
Privately owned Tipton energy companies also offer various services in most areas. If you need to use gas-related or sustainable energy services they're often provided by privately owned energy companies.
Privately-owned, or retail, energy companies in Tipton, IN are for-profit and often offer special promotions. Bear in mind that some energy companies are affiliates of larger providers. Affiliates simply sell energy services and manage customer accounts, they don't actually provide the services.
Co-op Energy Companies in Tipton
Tipton co-op energy companies operate like other kinds of co-ops with members serving as owners and managers as well as being users of the services. Co-ops are more uncommon than the two types of energy companies pointed out above.
Co-op energy companies in Tipton, IN are a popular choice for residential areas interested in using alternative energy sources as a primary method of delivering energy services.
Services Provided by Tipton Energy Companies
The services provided by an energy company can vary considerably. It's important to check with your local providers and be certain exactly what services they provide. It's highly likely you will have to work with several energy companies to meet all of your needs.
Common services provided by Tipton energy companies include:
- · Electricity
- · Water
- · Wastewater
- · Sewage
- · Gas
Working with Energy Companies in Tipton
Regardless of which kind of Tipton energy company you choose you can expect to get charged once a month for the utilities used. This naturally means your initial bill will be owed a month after the utilities are set up at your property. Even so, some energy companies will want new clients to make a one-time deposit to secure the account. Typically this deposit is returned after a certain period of time or after you close your account.
Like many other businesses today, most Tipton energy companies will permit you to set up automatic payments that will withdraw your payments from a checking account. Because your energy bills aren't a fixed expense some people are hesitant to set up automatic payments, but it will help you steer clear of late fees and make the bill paying process less complicated.
If you have problems paying a particularly large bill, contact your energy company and discuss the possibility of paying installments over an interval rather than a single, lump sum. Many people are surprised at how flexible most Tipton energy companies are when it comes to making payments.

DETROIT (AP) — A spokeswoman for the Detroit mayor says prominent businessman Don Barden has died.
Karen Dumas said Thursday that Mayor Dave Bing was informed of Barden's death and expressed his condolences to the family. She had no other details but says Barden had been sick for a few years.
Barden had a variety of business interests, including casinos, cable TV and real estate. Earlier this year, his wife went to court in a dispute over his ability to manage his assets.
Barden grew up in Inkster, near Detroit. He dropped out of college in Ohio but stayed in Lorain, Ohio, working a series of jobs before opening a record shop at age 22. Barden started a weekly newspaper, bought real estate and became a member of the Lorain City Council.

The row took off after a Chinese translation of a poem written by last year's literature prize winner.
Chinese writer Li Li's version of a Tomas Tranströmer poem replaced the word "chanterelle", a popular mushroom in Sweden, with the word "caramel".
After Swedish academy member Göran Malmqvist, 88, criticized the translation, Li published a poem on his blog which Malmqvist became convinced was a personal attack.
The poem, addressed to a young woman married to a much older man, likens the wife to a whore and the husband to a toad.
"What discipline it must require to each day subject your tender skin to the toad's bite," the poem reads.
Malmqvist, whose wife is 43 years younger than he is, was not too pleased.

"USE it or lose it" is the message being sent to Hoddlesden residents over community services.
East Rural councillor Julie Slater said she wanted to see more villagers using local facilities such as the Post Office, the chip shop, delicatessan and garage.
The East Rural Network – an action group made up of councillors, business people and residents – is looking into the possibility of erecting signs at the entrances to the village to make people more aware of the shops.
Coun Slater said: "If people don't use these shops, then Hoddlesden will end up like Belthorn, which has no corner shop.
"I want people to try and use these shops at least once a week or spend 50p more when they do, so we don't lose what is here.
"Times are hard, and it's a case of use it or lose it."

This anti cellulite cream is a light emulsion designed to work from the inside to firm and tighten your skin. Silhouette leaves a luxuriously silky residue on the surface of your skin to hydrate and provide all day comfort and moisture. Instantly, upon contact with human skin, the oxygen liquid in Silhouette, converts to pure oxygen gas. It disperses adipose tissue by forcing Oxygen gas deep into the tissues, blasting away toxins that block the capillaries and causes uneven bumpy skin. It provides the area with enough energy to wash away the trapped toxins and maintain healthy, vibrant smooth skin.
In addition, since oxygen is naturally anti-septic, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral, as the oxygen penetrates, it provides a safe and ultra-effective detox. It blasts away unwanted bacteria and fat and creating an internal shower.
The application of Silhouette helps to further improve the texture, elasticity and tone of your skin by stimulating the skin's own healing process, collagen production, and working to empower the lymph system to create a well balanced, toned and hydrated, firm, smooth skin. Silhouette has been proven to be an exceptional tan accelerator and tan maximiser, used before and after sun exposure. It also relieves aches and pains in your tired legs. It's one of the few cellulite products on the market that does not contain Caffeine.
Directions of use:
- Apply a thin layer of cream to the parts of the body which are affected
- Use once or twice daily (ideally morning and night)
- Spread the cream without massaging into the skin as it acts by itself [see note at bottom]
- The slight tingling sensation you may experience is quite normal and is due to the pressure of 4% oxygen contained in this cream, which makes it effective
- 3 to 5 minutes after application, you may either take a shower or get dressed
Please note:
Do not massage the cream into your skin because your hands will absorb a large quantity of cream with greater rapidity than the skin on the face and body. Therefore, if you massage into the skin when applying a cream for the face or body, too much of the effect of the patented products vanishes into the hands instead of acting where it was intended.

My recent return to the Bay Area has made two significant impacts on my currently bland life. For one, I have been able to enjoy some of the finest herb that this world has to offer, at an incredible discount from what I have become used to paying on the east coast – literally a half-off sale on buddah – and second, I have been able to reconnect with my other true love, the San Francisco Giants, in a way that only being in your own city can bring.
The intersection of the ballpark and the bong came with my first visit back to the hallowed ground by the bay that is AT&T Park. The standard pre-game parking lot fare of orange and black beads, cheap sunflower seeds and knockoff team apparel was joined by a relative newcomer; a bright orange t-shirt with a giant weed leaf behind the words "let Tim smoke!."
For those of you who haven't been paying attention lately (or not so lately for that matter) the Giants two-time Cy Young winning pitcher Tim Lincecum was recently caught in Washington state with 3.2 grams of marijuana and a pipe, he was cited for possession and released. In what I assume was an eighth from a dealer Lincecum will never be visiting again (that's 0.3 off and not acceptable) or the bottom of a much more substantial sac one would expect a professional athlete to be carrying, Lincecum cemented himself as a hero among not only Bay Area sports fans, but stoners world wide.
I had heard about the shirts from a dealer friend who lost his cotton flag of solidarity in some hazy post-victory celebration a few weeks earlier, but did not think of its significance before seeing it myself hanging on the fence at the gate of Parking Lot A. It was at this game, an embarrassment to say the least, in which Lincecum got shelled by the Rockies, and looked, for the first time I've ever seen, outmatched by Colorado ace Ubaldo Jimenez.
This was the most recent in a series of outings by Lincecum in which he hasn't pitched with his Cy Young-winning dominance. While I may be stretching for connections that don't exist or even making a larger matter out of a fantastic pitcher simply going through a small slump, something that literally every great athlete has gone through at least once, but to me, Lincecum's weed charge and his loss column are directly related.
For someone who grew up in Washington state, went to college in Seattle, has played all of his burgeoning professional years in San Francisco, and wanted to spend his first major league paycheck on a VW hippie bus, I imagine weed has been at least somewhat of a presence in Tim's life for quite some time now. And as any longtime smoker can attest to, weening oneself off the pipe (or joint, or bong, or blunt) can often be harder than it sounds. Speaking from experience, this usually leads to more stress, less focus and an inability to sleep – all detrimental to a professional athlete.
Now I'm not suggesting putting a Volcano in the dugout (although I'm certainly not discouraging it) I do think that Lincecum may benefit from smoking some weed, if only to bring him back to where he was before.
So as a life-long Giants fan with nothing but the teams success in mind, I beg of you Giants management and front office, please let Tim smoke! At least if all goes well with the November elections, Tim will be able to toke up legally in the great state of California, hopefully bringing with it a World Series trophy to the city by the bay.

I think you'd all find the DSP Amplifier is where the 'low level' signals are 'Amplified'. Built into the IC's used, will be the crossover section. In this oem setup, where DSP was optioned when the car was new, the unit that sits in the dashboard does NOT amplify any signals.
So, in order to make aftermarket 4 ohm speakers of which there's hundreds of choices out there work with the OEM DSP amp, you'd need to reverse engineer the DSP amplifier, work out if the crossover occurs before amplification or after that stage, work out how to change the impedance output by perhaps using different IC's etc. You could then work out which frequency band is being outputted upon which wires and the cutoff frequencies used.
I think the DSP option came out in 1997 and it's now late 2011 - in 14 or so years there was extremely little or next to no demand in doing much with E39 audio and especially with wanting to change the DSP amp and then use that to drive better quality speakers. Now that those amplifiers are failing etc there is a small amount of interest in doing things with it. One major stumbling block I see is that the oem DSP amp, also has quite a weedy RMS output level and aftermarket component speakers which are available sound much better when being driven by a much higher RMS output amplifier.
The cost of reverse engineering the DSP amp is hardly worth doing in this respect as I'd expect it to run into 5 figures from the outset.
By far the best solution would be to use a signal summing interface, which takes the outputs from the OEM ampifier and 'sums' them up to a full range, clean and undistorted signal output via RCA's. You can then take those RCA's and if you are so inclined, use an active crossover type audio setup where you can change and try all sorts of crossover frequencies matched to certain speakers and drivers which are known to perform fantastically with sound quality. It'll cost much less, provide a vastly extended quality level to go the signal processor route
If you *must* have oem audio modules, then the only option is the matched set of speakers from BSW which were developed with all the above in mind, which connect as drop in and connected replacements

Ariel Ben-Amos
It might seem obvious, but a big part of being an urban planner is to really love a city and its people. Ariel Ben-Amos is a Philadelphian through and trough. Born in Mount Airy, and educated at the University of Pennsylvania, he likes to brag that the only time he left the city for a long period of time, was to serve in the Peace Corps in Albania. Ben-Amos passion for all things urban started, he says in his early adolescence.
For most people that first moment of liberation, of freedom, comes when they are handed their first car keys at sixteen. Mine came when I was twelve when I got my first trail pass. I still have the small yellow card with its bright red number 2. And to this day it's packed away in a box filled with the others just like it that I carried throughout middle school and high-school.
Suddenly the city was mine as I hopped on the train to go to school, the bus or subway to visit friends. I didn't have to worry about learning how to parallel park or drive, all I did was jump on the next schedule bus and the city was mine.
Riding SEPTA was not just about a new freedom of movement I never had before. It was also about discovering new friends. I began to meet my neighbors, people I had grown up with but never knew lived right around the corner. Seeing these people day in and day out helped me gain a sense of community I never got when I was chauffeured around.
Later, when I took a year off of college to work at a local bakery, the Night Kitchen in Chestnut Hill, I was lucky that the very last train on the Chestnut Hill East line got me to work at 1 AM, the exact right time to start making muffins and cinnamon buns. If I missed it, the 23 took me through the heart of North Philly to the front door of the bakery.
I was raised in a neighborhood that grew up around the city's first train lines. As an urban planner I can think of hundreds of reasons why transit is good for cities. But I don't need theory. Every day I see with my own two eyes how transit makes it easier to support thriving communities. Today I work in the Mayor's Office of Transportation and Utilities because I have seen the impact transit has had on my city.
And everybody should find new opportunities to make friends and meet their neighbors.

The U.S. Justice Department is expected to announce as early as Wednesday its filing of civil lawsuits, rather than criminal charges, stemming from the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, according to Reuters.
Citing a federal government source familiar with the matter, Reuters said the announcement regarding the first significant U.S. legal action from the Gulf spill is expected at a press conference. It said penalties against BP under the Clean Water Act could top $20 billion if a court decides gross negligence was involved.
The Wall Street Journal, also citing unnamed sources, reported Tuesday that the Justice Department planned to join the hundreds of civil lawsuits already filed by injured workers and businesses, many of which have been consolidated in a New Orleans federal court.
In September, the Justice Department told the court it might join litigation but requested a special "track" just for government lawsuits, reports Reuters., noting Alabama and Louisiana have also sued over the spill.
In June in New Orleans, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that the U.S. government had launched a criminal and civil investigation into the worst oil spill in U.S. history.The spill began April 20 when the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded, killing 11 workers, and dumped an estimated 4.9 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico until the busted Macondo well was capped July 15 and permanently sealed in September.

Indiana University-Bloomington Provost Lauren Robel, IU Board of Trustees: Abandon the plan to do away with the independent School of Journalism
The IU School of Journalism has been a beacon for grassroots, award-winning students of journalism for over 100 years. Boasting over 30 Pulitzer Prize-winning alumni, most notably the late Ernie Pyle, the SoJ is consistently referenced as one of the best and most prestigious journalism schools in the country.
On February 19, IUB Provost Lauren Robel announced her approval of a plan to merge the School of Journalism with the departments of telecommunications, communications, and culture to form a new School of Communication, Media, and Journalism, which will be placed into the broad-based College of Arts and Sciences.
This merger wipes away over 100 years of tradition and the independence, excellence, and prestige that the School of Journalism has enjoyed in the past. The proposal will lower the quality of education that can be received by IU journalism students, erases the reputation and branding opportunity that comes being an alumni of the IU School of Journalism, and will result in the loss of jobs and prospective students.
The IU Board of Trustees will vote on the proposal April 11, and the university is accepting comments on the merger here: http://journalism.indiana.edu/uncategorized/submit-your-thoughts-on-proposed-merger/
We want to save the IU School of Journalism and Ernie Pyle Hall. Please join us in our campaign.
- Provost, Indiana University-Bloomington
Lauren Robel
- Indiana University Board of Trustees
Please rethink your proposal to merge the School of Journalism with the departments of telecommunication, communication, and culture, wiping away 100 years of excellence and prestige in the process.
Keep the School of Journalism independent, and save Ernie Pyle Hall.

"I like crows. I thought maybe we could teach them something useful."
A crow, given a retort beyond caw, might argue that her species accomplishes plenty every day, what with garbage to scatter, road kill to eat, trees to swarm, squirrels to harass and wake-up calls to make. But Klein didn't consult the crows.
Instead, the 33-year-old senior technology principal with Frog Design and self-titled inventor turned to a reliable partner: his own creative hubris. After the cocktail chat, Klein studied crows for six years and validated what he already suspected: They're unusually smart. They learn from each other. And there are loads of them.

'Polar bear cam' view of the ice
The 'Polar Bear Cam' project has been set up in the Canadian tundra.
It allows people to watch the bears as they wait for the ice to freeze so they can begin their annual seal hunt.
In this footage from the program, a bear tests the ice on the Hudson Bay to see if it strong enough to bear his weight.

This one's for everyone, but especially for Matt Kish, who's a fellow admirer of Rafael Kayanan's artwork. Over at his Comic Book Resources column, writer Ron Marz interviews Kayanan about his conceptual work back in 2002 for a different incarnation of the John Carter of Mars movie.
Here he is describing how he visualized a fighting style for the four-armed Tharks:
I had also gathered probably some of the best real-world stick fighters and sword instructors on the planet, and we had our own weeklong workshop where we came up with ways to move with multiple limbs. So the swords would pass from one level of Thark limbs to the other, knives thrown and loaded by the other hand. Close-quarter distractions, long-range feints, strikes, grabs and adding crazy patterns of sword work. How would a Thark roll, or execute a double-leg takedown of a White Ape? I asked Olympic Greco Roman champions to show me what they would do, I looked at Jujitsu guys, Western fencers, all kinds of arts. How the torso would stay together, how the legs would step so the Thark was balanced. It was fun as hell!
By the way, Marz introduces Kayanan as "comic artist, concept artist, fight choreographer and weapons instructor," which is a couple of titles more than I knew about him. Dang these overachiever types!
2 Responses to "The multi-talented Rafael Kayanan"
That's the stuff right there! I had never seen this before, it's really gorgeous. I think that of all the takes on John Carter I've seen, I prefer this one the most. Sorry Brent (and Frazetta).
Also, Kayanan is Filipino and my wife tells me that knife and stick fighting is a martial art in the Philippines. It's intriguing to think of Kayanan working with them, and bringing those cultural elements into his concept of Carter's Mars.
That's pretty awesome. I've tried to draw Tharks, and I always spend some time trying to figure out how the skeleton would go and how they move. That is some impressive dedication to the craft.

In the hurried early mornings of getting ready for that dreaded eight o'clock class, it can be hard to prepare that perfect statement-making outfit you had planned the night before. Stocking up on just a few wardrobe basics (i.e riding boots, colored jeans and the perfect trench coat) is a great way to cut costs on a college budget while maintaining Fashionista-status. When only a pit-stop at Starbucks pre-lecture can coax you from your flannel sheets, classics are key. Today's Fashionista reveals the optimal combination of classic fall pieces that can be easily mixed and matched to create a stand-out, put-together look fit for any Fashionista on the go.
Name: Samaria Johnson
Year: Sophomore
Major: History and French
CollegeFashionista: What are you wearing today?
Samaria Johnson: Jacket – H&M. Sweater – Calvin Klein by way of Filene's Basement, but I'm not sure about that second part because it was a gift six years ago. Jeans – Gap. Boots – Matisse via DSW. Purse – Christian Siriano for Payless.
CF: How would you describe your style?
SJ: I'd describe my style as feminine and classic. I almost always go for pieces that are trend-neutral, or not so trendy that they seem horribly out of style the next time the weather lets me wear them again. I'll grab the occasional "it" item, and I do enjoy a good statement piece, but most of my wardrobe is comprised of staples —things that won't look out of place in a season or five. The feminine details I like soften things up and make me feel pretty. They add a nice touch to all of the basics.
CF: What are you involved in on-campus? Does your involvement encourage you to dress a certain way to class?
SJ: I'm involved in a lot of social justice groups —namely the Harry Potter Alliance, in which I'm the Head of Slytherin, and the Alabama Alliance for Sexual and Reproductive Justice. I run the social media channels for that one. Next semester I'll be volunteering with Literacy is the Edge, an adult tutoring program. It's wicked easy to take the easy way out in college, not to put any effort into what I wear, but I wore uniforms in high school! I was taught growing up that I should never leave the house looking less than put-together. I make an impression everywhere I go, so I do my best to make it a good one. It's easy to think in college that what I wear to class and around campus doesn't matter, but people take note. I want to be taken seriously, and I want to be seen as capable. How I dress has a direct effect on my mood. You'll never catch me in a pair of sweats or a hoodie outside my dorm. It's so much more fun to play dress up, anyway.
CF: Where do you normally like to shop?
SJ: I work at the Gap, so I take full advantage of my discount and get a lot of my clothes staples, like jeans and sweaters from the Gap and Old Navy. I love ModCloth, Mango, and Victoria's Secret, when I feel up for the splurge, DSW and Aldo for shoes. I'm a kid in college, though, so I mostly make do with Marshall's and H&M. They have never failed me.
How to: This Fashionista is a perfect example of how great you can look with a simple color palette and a few classic pieces. Her colored skinnies, trench coat and riding boots are great interchangeable pieces that can be fit into any fashion formula. Colored jeans are nothing new, but this Fashionista chose the perfect fall green to compliment the changing season as well as add a pop of color to her otherwise neutral ensemble. H&M is a great place to shop for colored jeans at an affordable price. The classic trench coat worn atop her aforementioned green jeans, will never go out of style. From Burberry to Gap, every designer has their version of the classic coat. The riding boot cannot be matched when it comes to casual comfort, especially when walking to and from classes on a huge campus like The University of Alabama. Tory Burch boots are popular among UA students, but can be pricey. Try DSW or Macy's for a larger more affordable selection.
