BCS buster Hawaii earns date with Georgia in Sugar Bowl
Colt Brennan and high-scoring Hawaii are perfectly thrilled to play in the Sugar Bowl. Georgia hoped to reach the Superdome, too -- only not for this game.
In the year of the upset, Georgia was indeed upset. The Bulldogs blossomed into one of the best teams in the country with six straight wins, and believed they should've been picked for the BCS championship game.
Instead, LSU jumped the Bulldogs in the standings and will play Ohio State for the title.
"We feel like we got shafted a little bit,'' Georgia safety Kelin Johnson said. "The numbers don't add up. The numbers do not add up. The numbers do not lie. That's what is confusing. I don't know what's going on.''
Now, Georgia (No. 5 BCS, No. 4 AP) will head to New Orleans for a matchup on New Year's night against the lone unbeaten team in major college football.
Hawaii (12-0) earned an at-large bid to the Bowl Championship Series by rallying past Washington 35-28 Saturday night. Brennan completed the comeback, going 42-for-50 and throwing five touchdown passes for the highest-scoring team in the land.
"Sugar is definitely sweet,'' Brennan said. "We're going to do it Hawaiian style.''
The 10th-ranked Warriors are the champions of the Western Athletic Conference, the home of last season's BCS-buster Boise State. Few thought highly of those Broncos until they startled Oklahoma last season in a crazy Fiesta Bowl.
"I think Boise State proved that anything can happen in college football. Appalachian State proved it, too,'' Hawaii coach June Jones said.
The Warriors did not get more credit this season because of a relatively soft schedule that became even softer when Michigan State Spartans dropped off.
"Questionable schedule, rightfully so,'' Jones said. "We don't feel like we have to anything to prove.''
In recent years, Hawaii has beaten the likes of Alabama, Michigan State and Oregon State. Brennan and his teammates were not deterred when critics took aim at their team.
"We didn't say anything when those guys were talking all that. We just focused on winning. There's a lot of people out there looking pretty stupid,'' Brennan said.
Fact is, many fans never stayed up to see Hawaii. The Warriors will be in prime-time in a few weeks, and bunches of colorfully dressed islanders are expected to travel more than 4,000 miles to watch in person.
"Our whole state is going to be there,'' Jones said.
With Brennan slinging the ball short, long and everywhere in-between, Hawaii led the nation by scoring 46.2 points per game. Even in the wide-open Southeastern Conference, Georgia never saw an offense quite this wild.
"No one does it quite like coach Jones' team does it,'' Georgia coach Mark Richt said.
Jones was eager to return to the Superdome, where he played and coached in the NFL. Richt wanted to get there a week later for the BCS title game.
LSU (11-2) got its chance after beating Tennessee Voluneteers 21-14 Saturday in the SEC championship game. Georgia (10-2) lost earlier this season to Tennessee, and that defeat cost the Bulldogs when the teams wound up tied in the league standings.
"I do think we were unofficially disqualified for not winning our conference,'' Richt said. "It's just one of those wacky years.''
Richt said he probably would vote for a rule that required teams to be league champions to reach the BCS title game. But because none exists, Richt felt Georgia was penalized.
"I thought we could've got at least a little more thought,'' he said. "It's a popularity contest. It's kind of a beauty contest.''
Georgia will be playing in its second Sugar Bowl in three seasons. Hawaii will be making its eighth bowl appearance overall and just its second on the mainland, having beaten Illinois in the 1992 Holiday Bowl.
"To compete with a school like Georgia is amazing,'' Jones said. "It's the big time.''
So is the bowl payoff. The multimillion dollar reward dwarfs Hawaii's recruiting budget of $50,000.
"Hopefully, it means we'll get some new carpet and new stuff in my office,'' Jones said.

Goldenrod, a Fall Favorite
by Melinda Myers
posted Nov 14 2012 4:05PM
One of the last flowers of fall, the goldenrod, adds color to landscapes across North America.
You often find these and asters growing together in natural settings. These beautiful native plants make a nice combination in nature and the landscape.
An old legend speaks to this beautiful combination. It says two young friends, one with blonde hair and one with blue eyes were asked what they wanted to do when they grew up. The blonde hair girl wanted to make people happy and the other wanted to be with her friend. An old lady gave them magic cake and made their dreams come true by turning them into asters and goldenrod flowers.
Besides their beauty, these native plants provide food for butterflies, birds and beneficial insects, increasing their value in the garden.
Try adding a few of the tamer goldenrod varieties in your perennial or natural gardens.
A bit more information:
Fireworks goldenrod grows 3 to 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide and the flowers explode like fireworks above the leaves. Golden Thumb is a shorter goldenrod variety. Its yellow flowers top one-foot plants.
Grow these and most other goldenrods in well-drained soil and full sun. Avoid over fertilization and harvest a few flowers to enjoy fresh or dried indoors.

This Land is Your Land, This Land is Lego
Jeff Fieren's a photographer from Nova Scotia who's been known to dabble in dioramas using only Lego building blocks and other lego items. Seems like maybe he's got some spare time on his hands - maybe a lot of it. Check out his website. He's built dioramas of each of the 50 United States. Some are dead on: dancing girls in Nevada; folks attending a big football game in Alabama; and the Wright Brothers in North Carolina. But others will have you scratching your head: a merry-go-round and funnel cake stand for New Jersey; two guys on swings for Ohio; and a roadway sign saying "Welcome to Delaware" immediately followed by one saying "Thanks for visiting." Come on, guys. We all know that's a Rhode Island joke.

Ed Sheeran, Wedding Singer
Did you catch this one? A radio station in Sydney, Australia had already arranged an $80,000 dream wedding for a local couple after the unemployed groom wrote to talk about their need to postpone their wedding due to personal and financial hardship. Everything taken care of, down to the last detail. So when a somewhat familiar wedding singer showed up, no one should have been surprised, right? Surprised they were when Ed Sheeran walked in, strapped on his guitar and played "Thinking Out Loud," the song the couple had chosen for their first dance. Nicely done. And it's good to know Ed's got something to fall back on in case this recording thing falls through... Just surprised this lovely couples first dance.

Kourtney K, Trail Blazer
The Kardashians are frequently known for taking what others do and trying to top it. This newest one has me scratching my head though. You've heard of breastfeeding selfies, right? Giselle Bunchchen started the trend, posting pictures of herself feeding her children. And Alyssa Milano has kept the trend alive. They're called "brelfies." Now, Kourtney is posting pictures of her using breast pumps to express her breast milk to feed her child later. So what do we call these types of pictures? Pumpies? After the show it's the after party. A photo posted by Kourtney Kardashian (@kourtneykardash) on Mar 21, 2015 at 6:39pm PDT

That's Some Expensive Texting
The general manager of the NFL's Cleveland Browns has been suspended for four games without pay and fined $250,000. Why? For texting to on-field personnel during games. That's a serious wrist slap right there. A lot tougher than the NFL's former "Give Me That Phone You'll Get It Back At The End of The Game" policy...

Stephen King on Indiana
Despite being a guy who chooses to write books that are over 1000 pages long, Stephen King can be short, sweet and to the point at times. Take for instance his reaction to Indiana's controversial new Religious Freedom Restoration Act. He's not a fan, and he puts it in a very simple light. No novel, no novella, not even a short story needed here. Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration act is gay discrimination, pure and simple. You can frost a dog turd, but it's still a dog turd. — Stephen King (@StephenKing) March 31, 2015

Meet the New Daily Show Host
Comedy Central announced yesterday the replacement for Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. Just as everyone expected, the new host is... Trevor Noah? Um, sorry, who? Trevor's relatively new to The Daily Show. Heck, he's relatively new to the US, having arrived at both spots back in December - four months ago - from his native South Africa. In fact, back then, he made his debut appearance on The Daily Show as a correspondent. Now, suddenly, he's the new host. As others scramble to find out more about him, why not just sit back and watch that debut..

Oh No He Didn't...
Justin Bieber took the stage as a back-up singer with Ariana Grande in Miami over the weekend. His job: help her with "Love Me Harder." And he couldn't do it. He flubbed the lines, then gave up and started dancing on stage and greeting fans to cover for his failed memory. He apologized repeatedly to Ariana on stage.. And he did so on Instagram afterwards as well. Accepted or not, I'll bet it's the last time he's invited to be Ariana's back-up... Had fun with u Ariana, even tho I forgot all the words haha A photo posted by Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) on Mar 28, 2015 at 8:46pm PDT

The Beginning of The New World
Jay Z enlisted some top-level friends to help him announce his new streaming music service, Tidal. Beyonce was there, of course, and Kanye. But so was Madonna, and Nicki Minaj, and Jason Aldean, and Chris Martin, and more. Dozens of artists, in the room and on-line, to hear about and lend support to Jay Z's game changing idea. His plan is to get consumers to pay for music they're used to streaming for free. You laugh, but it worked for Netflix. The man could really be on to something big here...

Watching the marathon of season 2 on AMC the other day and noticed something. When Shane and Andrea go to a new(ish) subdivision about "10 miles" from the farm to look for Sophia, it sort of looks like Clementine's neighborhood from the game. It's close to the farm, and the game never mentioned - I don't think - how long it took Lee and his group to get to Hershel's. Just curious if anyone else had noticed this?
I had to rewind my DVR and look for a tree house but didn't see anything.
Nothing really to do with the game, just thought it would have been a neat tie in to the show.

Reason #108 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:
I have been reading WSR for about two years now and especially enjoy the product review section. Although the other articles and review sections are generally well-written and informative, the product reviews give me an unbiased look at new technologies and products. Being in the home theatre design field, I look at many different sources for product ups and downs and find your magazine a very valuable resource in this area. Keep up the great work!!Jeff Santerre

The Nuclear Power Debate
by: Rick Herrick on November 17th, 2014 | 7 Comments »
I have been a socially responsible investor for over forty years. I apply strict ethical screens in choosing my companies. I also look for companies that sell products that make the world a better place. I take pride in owning such companies.
In making my investment decisions, I have made few compromises. Two weeks ago, however, I made a big compromise with my long held principles. I purchased a small position in an electric utility with some plants that run on nuclear power. It was not an easy decision. I made it only because I can no longer see a happy solution to the problem of global climate change without an increased reliance on nuclear power in the short term.

Vincent Van Gogh - the Artist and His Life
Unlike the works of Picasso which can be explained by the loves in his life, the paintings of Vincent Van Gogh can best be understood by where he lived and worked. I will discuss The Starry Night from his stay in Saint-Rémy as well as other notable paintings.
Vincent Van Goghs Love of the Color Yellow
Van Gogh was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who was fond of using the color yellow in many of his works. Did he have a vision problem, was it from drinking Absinthe, or was it just a matter of self expression?
Warhol: Great Artist ?
I have the same question that Sister Wendy was heard to ask, "Was Andy Warhol a great artist or a con artist?"

Spa Gardens
The gardens opposite the Spa are a pleasant place to sit and watch the world go by and have recently had a £20M makeover.
The gardens have a modern feel and feature art screens that are four-metres wide and two-metres high. Each panel is made up of two layers of glass laminated together with an image both inside and outside the laminate.
The panels sometimes seem semi-transparent and sometimes are not. One side is shiny and reflective, while the other is a matte etched surface. Each of the eight Bridlington screens shows a detail from the local environment, including the topography and local industry.
Bridlington Harbour Museum
Located on Bridlington's historic harbour side of the Harbour Heritage Museum and is operated by the Bridlington Sailing Coble Preservation Society (BSCPS). The main exhibit is the sailing coble 'Three Brothers' built in 1912 which is moored in the harbour. The museum includes photographs, harbour history models, diorama of fishing techniques, video presentation and art gallery where paintings by local artists can be purchased. Entry is free and it is open Easter to October.

RSPB Bempton for birdwatching
There is a RSPB reserve close to Scarborough at Bempton to the south of the town. Between April and August you can see guillemots, kittiwakes and puffins as you enjoy the wonderful cliff top views. There are 200,000 birds here.
The nearest viewing point is accesable be wheelchair but other viewpoints are a problem.
It is all free apart from the car park that costs £5.00.(2014 price). RSPB members enter free.
Off the B1229 from Filey to Flamborough. Northern Rail trains stop here on the Scarborough to Hull line but it is a long walk to the cliffs.
The visitor centre has toilet facilities and refreshments are available here too . There is also a very good shop. Another way to see the sea birds and cliffs is to take a puffin cruise from Bridlington and details are on my Bridlington pages.
- Birdwatching
Flamborough Head
Stand on the promenade and look to the north and the giant white cliffs and this is Flamborough Head. It is a promontory of 8 miles and is a chalk headland, with sheer white cliffs.The headland is Britain's only northern chalk sea cliff. The cliff top has two standing lighthouse towers, the first dating to 1669 and Flamborough Head Lighthouse built in 1806.
The cliffs themselves provide nesting sites for many thousands of seabirds and is visited by bird watchers from across the world.
There is a pleasant Flamborough village and then North Landing , South Landing, the part of the headland that house the lighthouses and a local nature reserve at Danes Dyke. Thornwick Bay is also here and I have included this as An Off The Beaten Track tip as it is separate from the other headland places. The Lighthouse is included as a Things to Do tip.
Each place has cafes and parking and all are worth visiting.

Sledmere House
Sledmere is a Georgian House – and it is also an Edwardian House. Sir Christopher Sykes, 2nd baronet, rebuilt and redecorated the house in the 1790s, but in 1911 it was almost completely destroyed by fire. Fortunately most of the contents were rescued and they can still be seen on view today. It is worth a visit just to see the splendour of Joseph Rose's plasterwork and the fine examples of furniture by Chippendale, Hepplewhite and Sheraton.
The gardens and lake are worth seeing if you do not have time to see the house too. There are several special events on through the year too and the opening season is late March to the last Sunday in October.

North Promenade
Leaving the harbour and walking north is a mixed bag of things to see. The rather tacky small funfair that was built much to the annoyance of local people (agreed as it spoils the harbour area) is the first thing you see and then a row of amusement arcades but with two very good coffee/ice cream parlours that are easy to miss here. Past Leisure World and then some small hotels and then a wonderful walk out to Sewerby with sweeping views out to sea and Flamborough Head in the distance.
The sand at north bay is firm and clean and great for beach games and building sand castles. The public toilets are of a high standard and there are new beach huts too. The beach becomes wild and rocky as the promenade rises to become part of Flamborough Head and there are small rock pools to play in and explore.
Sewerby is a pleasant village at the end of the Promenade and a land train runs along the promenade if you are not able to walk along to Sewerby.
Sewerby Hall
The hall has a cliff top position on the coast to the north of the town on the way to Flamborough. It stands in 50 acres of parkland and the house is used for craft fairs, exhibitions and art displays. The hall is worth visiting for the grounds alone and here are pleasure gardens , golf courses for family golf, a putting green , a children's zoo and various craft units. The tea rooms are in the gardens too.

The Spa
This is East Yorkshire's largest entertainment venue with a capacity of 3500 places in the main hall.
There has been a spa theatre here for over 100 years and in 2008 rebuilding and renovation saw major changes to bring the building in to the 21st century. The 1930s Royal Hall ballroom have been retained as has the Edwardian theatre.
Many major acts appear through the year and the Spa is also used for conferences , exhibitions and weddings.
- Theater Travel
Burton Agnes Hall
The hall was built between 1598 and 1610 and is a fine example of Elizabethan architecture. It has stayed in the Cunliffe - Lister family for more than four centuries.
There are many treasures in the house including French impressionist paintings, tapestries, contemporary furniture and some modern artwork.
The old Elizabethan walled garden has over 4000 plants and there are also herb gardens, a maze, fruit trees and herbaceous borders.
There is a shop, cafe and picnic area.
Many events take place through the year and the outer grounds have a woodland sculpture walk.

The Yorkshire Belle
This little ship is a must see in Bridlington. The ship was built in 1947 and is the last surviving ship cruising out of the harbour. The ship is fully licensed and has a lounge bar that serves light refreshments throughout cruises. There are daily one hour and in July and August there are evening cruises with entertainment. The ship can carry 206 people but beware - only 100 can travel undercover so travel only when the weather is good!
The hour cruises go to Flamborough Head but occasionally longer trips are made to the Bempton Bird Sanctuary and this is my recommended cruise as the sight of the high cliffs and the many birds a sight well worth seeing.

Pirate ship
The standard 15 minutes rides are on offer from 1st April through till 31st October everyday, and weekends all year round (weather dependent).
The boat is also available for private hire including birthday parties, private functions and scattering of ashes and remember service.
Scenic tours around Flamborough Head to see the spectacular views of North landing and Thornwick Bay or a long trip to view the famous 300feet Bempton cliff bird sanctory.
he Pirate Ship was built on the High Green in Bridlington old town next to the Priory church in 1979. It was built single handed by a local boat builder called Paul Mckie.
It was originally designed to be an angling and commercial fishing boat and was named "Sportsman." It is constructed of oak frames with larch planking which was harvested in the Hemsley area of North Yorkshire.
The decking is made of iroko wood imported from South America.
Carvel built the frames are erected before the planking, the planks are butted up to each other and are secured with iron spikes, then seams and joints are caulked to be made water tight.
This method is usually used on larger vessels and is of a heavier construction.
The holiday industry declined in Bridlington with introduction of cheap flights to Europe. The owners of the Sportsman could not stand by and see this fine piece of craftsman ship be decommissioned as the fishing leisure industry slowly came to an end.
Together father and son, Arthur and Sean Newby conceived the novel idea of a pirate ship. Providing great value tours of the Bridlington bay, and a chance for children to experience an exciting voyage.

CommentAdd a Comment
A really useful book. I am bilingual and yet still found this book had new ideas that inspired me to brush up on my third language and learn a fourth!
Definitely worth reading!
I feel the author took some blog information and tried to fill a book. Basically practice often and just jump right in is the advice, very much just a list of common sense ideas. I feel that the library has a selection of better language learning books and I would highly recommend the library's Mango database over this book.
Well... it's complicated. I will just buy Rosetta Stone.

Leafless Lemons
dshcsApril 7, 2014
I planted several citrus before the winter in south Florida. I pushed them hard with rooting stimulants, soluble and dry fertilizer. Some were home store rescues (reduced shelf) and some neighborhood yard rescues (relocated). Everyone has flushed out nicely and bloomed except two lemons. Both are blooming and have set fruit, but not a single new leaf or sign of new leaves. One has only a few leaves left.
All have been treated with neonicotinoid drenches and get weekly foliar sprays with macro nutrients and oil (DIY Maury Boyd formulation). Is there something special about lemons I missed?

What would you do?
Hi everyone.
I don't post very often but I read everything almost every day.
I have googled for an answer but come up with a lot of maybes to my problem.
There are ticks all over my backyard. since I am gardening as organically as possible I don't know how to handle this. The neighbors also have a bad tick problem but they spray so intensely that I can not go outside for days afterwards.
This was not really a problem for me the last couple years but now I have a puppy and I had to move my garden into my backyard. I am treating the puppy but as soon as the stuff wears off he has to be treated again. It is really bad and I have found no solution. I do not want to poison the puppy and my gardens all season.
Do any of you have any experience with this?
Thank you and heres to hoping mother nature takes a break from her mood swings.
Guineas and chickens are the best control, but then of course, they attract predators that like to eat poultry so you must have a predator-proof enclosure and coop for them.
I'm going to link Howard Garrett's organic flea/control method for you. We have done most of the things he suggests, in addition to having poultry that is allowed to free-range for a portion of each day, and our property is relatively tick-free....at least the 2 or 3 acres nearest the house. You're still apt to run into ticks if you venture off into the 10+ acres of woodland. The only tick issues we have are when our dogs or cats go roaming in the woodland and come back with ticks on them.
You can get the recipe for Garrett Juice at his website. I usually mix it up from scratch, but every now and then when I am down in the D-FW metroplex, I'll pick up a gallon of it at Mike's Garden Center, Calloway's Nursery or Home Depot. It is just an enhanced compost tea, but I like the way it works. I also keep a bottle of Medina Orange Oil (there are other brands, but Medina is the one that has been easiest to fine) on hand year round. Because you dilute it a lot, a bottle lasts me for years. It is great for tough pests, including fire ants.
There are many dog shampoos available with tea tree oil in them, but some of them don't seem to have very much in them so I usually mix up dog shampoo using tea tree oil purchased at a health food store, or I buy Dr. Bronner's Tea Tree Oil/Castile Soap. It seems really pricey but is highly concentrated so a bottle lasts forever.
Gardenville's Anti-Fuego product works similar to the Dirt Doctor's fire ant mound drench treatment if you happen to have anyone near you who carries Gardenville products. I usually go to Fort Worth's Marshall Grain Company once a year to stock up on various organic supplies like the ones mentioned here, or if we're in the Grapevine/Southlake/Colleyville area, I stock up on these things and on Espoma Tomato Tone and Garden Tone at Mike's Garden Center.
We had horrible flea and tick issues our first few years here because our land was just fallow farm land where cattle had grazed for a long time. It took years of consistent effort to get the fleas and ticks under control and you have to remain vigilent because they keep trying to move back in to areas that we've treated in the past. As much as anything, cutting all the cedar trees on our property within 100 yards of the house made a huge difference too. I noticed whenever I mowed near cedars back in the early years that the ticks were dropping down onto me from the cedar trees. After we took out the cedars, that part of the tick problem went away..
Here is a link that might be useful: Dirt Doctor's Organic Flea/Tick Control Program
I second chickens. I had a chicken coop. It took my chickens no time at all, to scratch it bare.
In the late fall, and over winter I would let them in my garden, which was conveniently placed right next to the coop.
Then, after the garden was off limits for them, in the spring and summer time, I would let them run all over the yard, about 10 or 15 minutes before I knew, they would return to get in to their chicken house.
I had ZERO problems with bugs during this time period.
To bad, I now live in town... and prolly would not get away with keeping any chickens... besides the point that I am gone for weeks at the time....
Thank you. This is what I was looking for.
The tea tree oil is a good idea. I have some so I will mix that up for the puppy. When it warms up I can bathe him.
Maybe when I make a run back to Denton I will stop by and pick up some stuff.
I do not want to use the stuff the neighbors use. It is horrible. Last year I thought there was a gas leak the smell was so bad, and lasted for days. I don't think they mix it right.
I would love to have chickens but I am not able to at this time. When I move to the new place we will definitely be using chickens. I am gearing up to move but I have to get through this season here first. My fall garden will be at the new place, I hope. This years garden is tiny since I had to move it into the backyard.
Thanks for all the ideas
and the puppy thanks u too. I really didn't like using those chemicals.
Ah, the joy of ticks. (Not really, I hate them) I have 3 large dogs & living near the refuge, the ticks here are really bad some years. My husband & son bring them home from fishing all the time. We all strip down & take turns examining each other to make sure none of the itty bitty ones have snuck in somewhere. I check my dogs often. IDK if this alone would make a huge difference or not, but I wash mine with Neem Oil shampoo when I start having issues with fleas & ticks. It makes their coats extra shiny & smells great. The particular brand I use is Ark Naturals "Protect" shampoo, but the link I put in here has recipes to make it yourself. It may be cheaper that way.
I also use a topical flea/tick treatment on my dogs. Right now, I use Sentry Fiproguard Max but I've also had a lot of success with K9 Advantix II. I had to stop using it though, because it got too expensive for the 3 & I can usually find Fiproguard for a lot cheaper. I don't particularly like putting the chemicals on them, but I've learned that I need a little extra help to keep the fleas & ticks under control during Oklahoma summers.
Hope this was helpful. Neem oil has a lot of uses & I really like the way it works on my pups.

Changing tastes: The industry has been focused on producing healthier snack ranges
IBISWorld's Snack Food Manufacturing market research report provides the latest industry statistics and industry trends, allowing you to identify the products and customers driving revenue growth and profitability. The industry report identifies the leading companies and offers strategic industry analysis of the key factors influencing the market.
Volatile input prices, changing consumer trends and a saturated market are just some of the changes facing the Snack Food Manufacturing industry. Over the five years through 2014-15, volatile commodity prices, rising competition and increasingly health-conscious consumers switching to healthier alternatives are expected to constrain industry revenue growth. Over the five years through 2014-15, industry revenue is expected to increase by an annualised 1.3% to total $2.4 billion. In 2014-15, revenue is expected to increase by 1.6%.
The industry's major players have faced falling profit margins, increased competition from private labels and stagnating domestic demand, particularly in the salty snacks segment, which has historically been the most profitable... purchase to read more
The majority of the industry produces salty snack foods. However, a number of new products have been introduced to the industry recently. In 2014-15, snack foods are classified into five major market segments: potato chips, extruded snacks, nuts and pretzels, corn chips and nutritious snacks.
Potato chips
In 2014-15, potato chips comprise the largest segment of products sold by the Snack Food Manufacturing industry, at an estimated 41.7%, down from 2009-10. This product segment has faced a number of obstacles over the past five years due to the increasing number of healthier snacking alternatives and the introduction of new, non-potato-based snacks... purchase to read more
Companies in this industry mainly manufacture snack-food products such as potato chips, corn chips, savoury snacks, nuts, pretzels and other similar snacks. The manufacturing process includes buying raw materials such as milled corn, wheat, potatoes, food extracts, flavourings, preservatives and sugar, for processing into snack foods. The finished products are then packaged and marketed to wholesalers and retailers.

Yep it's complimentary definitely. Not alot of action, but this game is interesting. Luckily I've 2 bits of info...
Well that's... sad. However, I think that makes two games right in a row where I got targeted by baddies on night 1, and didn't die. Thank you for that, I suppose Sounds to me like we might have some trouble from the mimic, though, if he's picking up kill abilities.

What a grand thing, to be loved! What a grander thing still, to love!
What brings joy to the heart is not so much the friend's gift as the friend's love.
What children take from us, they giveWe become people who feel more deeply, question more deeply, hurt more deeply, and love more deeply.
What children take from us, they give…We become people who feel more deeply, question more deeply, hurt more deeply, and love more deeply.
What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do…?
What force is more potent than love?
What good is a name when your in love? You only ever you pet names anyway. Hun.
What great delight it is to see the ones we love and then to have speech with them.
What importance can we attach to the things of this world? Friendship? It disappears when the one who is liked comes to grief, or the one who likes becomes powerful. Love? it is deceived, fleeting, or guilty. Fame? You share it with mediocrity or crime. Fortune? Could that frivolity be counted a blessing? All that remains are those so-called happy days that flow past unnoticed in the obscurity of domestic cares, leaving man with the desire neither to lose his life nor to begin it over.
What is a hero without love for mankind.
What is a kiss? Why this, as some approve:
What is a scientist? We give the name scientist to the type of man who has felt experiment to be a means guiding him to search out the deep truth of life, to lift a veil from its fascinating secrets, and who, in this pursuit, has felt arising within him a love for the mysteries of nature, so passionate as to annihilate the thought of himself.
What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.
What is done out of love is beyond Good and Evil
What is grace? It is the inspiration from on high: it is love; it is liberty. Grace is the spirit of law. This discovery of the spirit of law belongs to Saint Paul; and what he calls "grace" from a heavenly point of view, we, from an earthly point, call "rigtheousness."
What is it about possessing things Why do we feel the need to own what we love, and why do we become jerks when we do We've all been there-- you want something, to possess it. By possessing something you lose it. You finally win the girl of your dreams, the first thing you do is change her. The little things she does with her hair, the way she wears her clothes or the way she chews her gum. Pretty soon what you like, what you changed, what you don't like, blends together like a watercolor in the rain.
What is love? As far as I can tell, is is passion, admiration, and respect. If you have two, you have enough. If you have all three, you dont have to die to go to heaven.
What is love? It is the morning and the evening star.
What it really means to love unconditionally is just to love all and sundry without any segregation/limitation/restriction/intimidation/stigmatization. That is that period.
What it takes to sustain every relationship is just compromise i.e. mutual concession. Yes! whoever that longs to be a true love must be a compromiser of his or her right/interest/comfort/time and stuffs like that. Besides that, every true love or lover is expected to share whatever he or she has with his/her spouse or partner. For, without compromise and sharing there can't/won't be any lasting relationship.
What it takes to sustain every relationship is just compromise. Yes! besides, whoever that longs to be a true love or leader must be a compromiser of his or her right, interest or comfort.
What it takes to sustain every relationship is just compromise. Yes! besides, whoever that longs to be a true love/leader must be a compromiser of his or her right/interest/comfort.
What light is to the eyes -- what air is to the lungs -- what love is to the heart, liberty is to the soul of man.
What love can achieve, nothing else can achieve!
What most people need to learn in life is how to love people and use things instead of using people and loving things.

Thomas Hood
A Parental Ode to My Son, Aged 3 Years and 5 months
Thou happy, happy elf!
(But stop,—first let me kiss away that tear—)
Thou tiny image of myself!
(My love, he's poking peas into his ear!)
Thou merry, laughing sprite!
With spirits feather-light,
Untouched by sorrow, and unsoiled by sin;
(Good Heavens! the child is swallowing a pin!)
Thou little tricksy Puck!
With antic toys so funnily bestuck,
Light as the singing bird that wings the air;
(The door! the door! he'll tumble down the stair!)
Thou darling of thy sire!
(Why, Jane, he'll set his pinafore afire!)
Thou imp of mirth and joy!
In love's dear chain, so strong and bright a link,
Thou idol of thy parents; (Drat the boy!
There goes my ink!)
Thou cherub—but of earth;
Fit playfellow for Fays, by moonlight pale,
In harmless sport and myrth,
(That dog will bite him if he pulls its tail!)
Thou human hummingbee, extracting honey
From every blossom in the world that blows,
Singing in youth's elysium ever sunny,
(Another tumble!—that's his precious nose!)
Thy father's pride and hope!
(He'll break the mirror with that skipping-rope!)
With pure heart newly stamped from Nature's mint;
(Where did he learn that squint!)
Thou young domestic dove!
(He'll have that jug off with another shove!)
Dear nursling of the Hymeneal nest!
(Are those torn clothes his best?)
Little epitome of man!
(He'll climb upon the table, that's his plan!)
Touched with the beauteous tints of dawning life
(He's got a knife!)
Thou enviable being!
No storms, no clouds, in thy blue sky foreseeing,
Play on, play on,
My elfin John!
Toss the light ball—bestride the stick—
(I knew so many cakes would make him sick!)
With fancies, buoyant as the thistle-down,
Prompting the face grotesque, and antic brisk,
With many a lamb-like frisk,
(He's got the scissors, snipping at your gown!)
Thou pretty opening rose!
(Go to your mother, child, and wipe your nose!)
Balmy and breathing music like the South,
(He really brings my heart into my mouth!)
Fresh as the morn, and brilliant as its star,
(I wish that window had an iron bar!)
Bold as the hawk, yet gentle as the dove;
(I'll tell you what, my love,
I cannot write unless he's sent above!)
