2008-07-03 19:16:00 Formal wear season is year-round. Which means that fancy dresses are needed year-round, too. From fancy New Year's parties to anniversaries in the spring to prom to weddings to the opening of football season (well, in our house, at least), women will find themselves in constant need of a beautiful new dress to wear for the occasion, and men will find themselves in constant need of not spending the entire day at a dress shop, and also not spending a lot of money.Elegant Mart helps everyone in that scenario. With a few clicks, women can shop for all the fancy formal wear they want: evening dresses, prom dresses, things to wear to weddings, it's all there. And the men can sit at the table reading Sports Illustrated and pretending to look when their wives tell them to look. When the time comes to pay, men, you'll be happy, too, because Elegant Mart's prices are great.Dress up more and less: More dresses, more ease, less expensive.

Broken Down Bandwagon comes to a screeching halt!
2008-06-05 07:54:00 It is no secret as to who has been the favourite team of most NHL fans during the 2008 Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Pittsburgh Penguins have become the darlings of this year?s playoffs, which has prompted many to jump on their bandwagon. Boasting intriguing youth such as Sidney Crosby, Evgeny Malkin and Marc-Andre Fleury, it is easy for fans, especially young ones, to get caught up in the hype associated with this young and offensively gifted team.

Florio: Skins won't make the playoffs in 2008
2008-05-22 20:59:00 Mike Florio, of PFT fame, recently picked six teams he didn't think would return to the playoffs in '08 after successful seasons in 2007 (hat tip: Behind the Steel Curtain). Your Washington Redskins made the cut, so to speak: 3. Washington Redskins The Redskins rallied late in ‘07, coming together as a cohesive unit after the tragic death of safety Sean Taylor. They unexpectedly qualified for the playoffs, sneaking in as the sixth seed and nearly shocking the Seahawks in the wild-card round. But then came the unexpected retirement of coach Joe Gibbs, followed by the curious decision to hire Seattle quarterbacks coach Jim Zorn as the offensive coordinator, and then to promote him to head coach. Zorn very well might become a great head coach, but it’s a tall order to expect him to navigate a competitive NFC East and get back to the postseason. The Redskins would have been wise to give the gig to defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, who is now with the Jaguars. In a lea...

Home Court Advantage Continues to Dominate the NBA Playoffs
2008-05-16 00:38:00 In the second round of this year's NBA playoffs home court advantage seems to be a huge asset, 19 of 20 games played in the second round the home team has come out on top which is leading the last three series (Spurs/Hornets, Jazz/Lakers, Cavs/Celtics) to possible game sevens. The only loss was by the Orlando Magic against the Detroit Pistons.Even the Boston Celtics who had the best road record in the NBA this season (31-10) haven't been able to win even one game on the road. In the first round against the 8th seed Atlanta Hawks (0-3) and now in the second round against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers (0-2).For some reason the home team continues to dominate, it maybe because crowd noise or just dumb luck, but one thing is for sure, who ever wins on the road will be the team that has the best chance to advance.In Utah the crowd noise is deafening, you can't even hear yourself think let alone be able to communicate on the floor making it very difficult to get some chemist...
