|A southern staple, raw peanuts are boiled in a salty, Cajun seasoned water - stovetop, crockpot or pressure cooker.
Cajun Boiled Peanuts
Chatting with my mess-mates, passing time away
Lying in the shadows underneath the trees
Goodness, how delicious, eating goober peas.
Peas, peas, peas, peas
Eating goober peas
Goodness, how delicious,

Boiled peanuts require using raw peanuts and the growing season for fresh green (raw) peanuts runs between May and September, with harvests around October, though you can pretty much find raw peanuts at your local market anytime of the year. I was hoping to wait and find some really fresh green {raw} peanuts before posting my recipe, but, decided to just go for it!
Boiled peanuts are a decidedly southern thang, and even amongst us southerners, there are two factions. You either love them. Or you hate them.
To be honest, I once thought they were kinda yucky. I mean I love hot, freshly roasted peanuts, but mushy, soft peanuts? Then as happens when we get older, I tried them again and flat out fell in love. So, now I'm of the love 'em camp myself, and in fact, find they are just a bit addictive. The texture might be off-putting to some folks, since boiling a peanut gives it a very soft, soggy feel to the mouth - very different from the crunchy roasted peanut most people are accustomed to. But, they do kinda grow on you.
It is believed that southerners started boiling peanuts back during the Civil War when on the march through Georgia, Confederate troops were split up, and food and supplies became hard to come by. Peanuts became an important source for nutrition, and Confederate soldiers often roasted them over campfires and some began to boil them. Somewhere along the way somebody used salt when they were boiling them, which made the boiled peanuts last a little bit longer, and hot, boiled and salted peanuts were born!
Boiled peanuts are even available in the can at the local chain grocery markets around here and are very good, but I love to stop and grab a bag of hot, boiled peanuts right out of the pot from the guys who sell them on the roadside. It feels more authentic to me and I feel like I'm helping them out by buying from them. Of course, unless you live somewhere in the southeast region of this country, I suspect you won't find many boiled peanuts showing up at roadside vendors or local farmer's markets, so you'll be relegated to makin' your own. It's not hard at all, it's just a bit time consuming, especially when using older raw peanuts.
The problem with out of season, raw peanuts is, that they are generally last year's crop and over time become quite dehydrated, meaning that they can take forever to cook. Older peanuts can take 8 hours, and even much longer, so as long as you are prepared to stew them literally all day long {and sometimes into the next day} you can still have boiled peanuts any time of the year.
For older peanuts, you'll also need to use lots of salt, primarily because you will likely find that you are having to refresh the boiling water continuously to reach the level of softness you want. Otherwise, they will not be seasoned enough. You'll just need to continually check and taste as they cook, until they reach the desired level of tenderness you like. On the other hand, fresh from the garden peanuts can be ready in as little as 2 to 4 hours. So the first key is to know if you're cooking fresh, green raw peanuts, or last year's leftovers.
This recipe is written for a single 1-pound bag of raw peanuts, but amounts listed in the recipe are very dependent on personal preference to be honest. I like to use crab boil, Cajun seasoning, Old Bay seasoning, onion and garlic powder, and giardiniera peppers when I have them which makes for a nice tingle of spice across the lips.
If you've never made your own boiled peanuts before, just make up a batch to see how the seasoning is for your taste and then make adjustments for your next batch.
Recipe: Cajun Boiled Peanuts©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Brine time: 24 hr |Cook time: 4 hour or more | Yield: 1 pound
For the Brine:
For the Boil:
- About a gallon of water
- 1-1/4 cups of kosher salt
- 1 pound fresh raw peanuts in shells
- Water to fill the pot
- 1 tablespoon crab boil, or to taste
- 2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning (like Slap Ya Mama) or to taste
- 1 cup of giardiniera peppers, sliced fresh or pickled jalapeno peppers, or a combination of both, or to taste
You'll need a large stockpot large enough to hold several gallons of water, a lid or plate that will fit just on the inside of the pot, and something heavy to weigh the plate down. I just use another heavy pot. Fill the pot with enough water to cover the peanuts, plus a couple of inches; add the salt and stir to dissolve. Rinse the peanuts and add them to the water. The peanuts will float, but you'll use the lid to push them down into the water and then set another heavy pot on top of that lid to hold the peanuts down in the pot. Set aside to soak overnight.
When ready to boil, remove the weight and the lid and add additional water to the brining water, to bring it up to a full pot. Stir in the crab boil, Cajun seasoning and peppers and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 4 hours (checking at 2 hours if peanuts are very fresh), adding water as needed to keep peanuts covered. If additional water is added, bring back up to a boil, then reduce heat back to a simmer. Taste one for texture and flavor and continue cooking, as needed, checking in 30 minute increments until they reach your desired consistency. Some people like them with a bit of a crunch still, others prefer them to be very soft.
Grab a cold Barq's root beer in a bottle, ice cold beer, or tall glass of southern sweet iced tea. Use a kitchen spider to extract those peanuts into a small bowl so that they can sit in their own little hot tub of salty juiciness while you enjoy them! Leave the rest of them soaking in the water to increase saltiness and heat level. Transfer to a covered container with the liquid and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days; warm in the microwave. Will not keep longer than a few days, however they can be processed and canned, or frozen.
Recipe can be multiplied for cooking outside on a boiler if desired.
Optional Seasonings: Add to above seasonings - 1 tablespoon of Old Bay seasoning, 1 teaspoon of onion powder and garlic powder.
Crockpot: Use the largest crockpot you own, brine, then transfer the peanuts to the crockpot with just enough of the brining water to fill the crock 3/4ths way full. Cook on High overnight, or for roughly 12 hours (or as long as 24 if peanuts are older) checking the water occasionally; test and continue cooking to desired texture. You may skip the brine for these but cooking time will be lengthened. Add about 1/4 cup of kosher salt if you skip the brine.
Electronic Pressure Cooker: I use this method to make my peanuts now. Reserve water from brine. Add one tablespoon of oil to the bottom of the pressure cooker. Top with peanuts and seasonings; stir. I always include the optional seasonings listed above also. Add enough water of the brine water to cover peanuts. Cover, seal and cook at high pressure for 55 minutes. Let pressure release naturally, then transfer peanuts and liquid to crockpot, add additional water to fill crockpot 2/3rds full, and finish on high for approximately 2 to 3 hours; taste and continue cooking as needed until peanuts reach your desired consistency. You may skip the brine for these and the crockpot version but cooking time will be lengthened. Add about 1/4 cup of kosher salt if you skip the brine.

Labor of love: La Grave mountain risk patrollers, guardians of FreedomMon, 28/03/2011 - 10:57 — Petzl News
Friday, 11 February 2011, 2:00 p.m., Crête du Peyrou d'Aval, around 2800 meters high. Under a beautiful blue sky, on a ridge that delineates the western horizon above the refuge Chancel from the classic ski routes of the Valleys of the Meije, two figures stand out. When standing still they seem to blend in with this immense, wild and incredibly beautiful mountain.
In fact, ever alert, they scan the Glacier de la Girose below them and the slopes that descend towards the big routes: Orcières, La Voute, Chirouze…
On this particular day, the conditions are not in for these legendary descents. The regulars fully know this but as it sometimes happens, certain skiers descend too far and are trapped in the very technical couloirs. Paying attention is not to be taken lightly.
Today, there are no unusual tracks. Everything is calm. One last look, a few turns, and Pascal and Jean Charles, LaGrave mountain risk patrollers, arrive at the terrace of the refuge in order to check another area.
It has not snowed for a month. The area is completely tracked out and the snowpack is stable. In any case, it will be until the next snowfall that will blanket a nice layer. The cold snow is good for skiing but in the couloirs it can be very hard; the big risk today is falling. In these conditions, the role of the two patrollers focuses on:
- information, the morning departure of the cable car, specific information targeted to the perceived level of the skiers
- discrete vigilance throughout the day over the different routes and, if necessary, giving advice directly on the mountain
When the next snowfall arrives, a new story will begin…
Meanwhile, Pascal Guibout and Jean Charles Bonsignore fly the flag for Petzl in their unique jobs as La Grave mountain risk patrollers.
Petzl: What is the mission of the patrollers?
Jean Charles Bonsignore: "The area from the Meije valleys to La Grave is unique in the world. Up high, a small ski lift serves a piste on the glacier. Apart from that, there is nothing or close to nothing … the only things are off-piste, ski-touring routes on the glacier, valleys, couloirs and forest – almost 2000 vertical meters of pure mountain. Here, outside the only marked trail, there is no ski patrol and the area is not secured. Skiers accept their own responsibility. Keeping with the image of the area, the system established by La Grave is, to our knowledge, unique in the world. We are four patrollers employed by the municipality. Our role is to keep an eye on the security situation in the area, to play a role of light prevention for the clients and an advisory role to the municipality for the opening or closure of the cable car."
Petzl: Exactly what does your job entail?
Pascal Guibout: "In the morning, before skiers buy their tickets, we are there at the departure station to advise skiers with information on the specific conditions at the time like the weather, avalanche hazard and what equipment they need to have. Then we have a quick briefing so that the skiers, depending on their ability level and itinerary, are able to ask questions before they start. At this time of the day, we also distribute information to the tourist offices in the area and the guides' offices, and we also relay information about the snow to Météo France. Then we head up the mountain to discretely watch what happens. We follow the progress of the groups, give advice if necessary and adjust the placement of trail markers that show the main routes."
Petzl: Can you tell us more about your advisory role for the municipality?
Pascal Guibout: "It manifests itself most notably through the safety committee. In case of a significant change in the avalanche risk, we convene this committee. Composed of guides, it will follow the two main protocol for recommending, according to the snow conditions, whether it's possible or not to open the cable car. An announcement is made to the municipality who makes an official decision for the opening or the closing. I believe this commission is something unique to La Grave. It is always a highlight of local life."
Petzl: Do you participate in rescues?
Jean Charles Bonsignore: "This is a high mountain area. The rescues are made by the PGHM (high mountain rescue unit) or the CRS. However, we can always be asked to help, for example, in case there is bad weather and the helicopter can't come. Of course, we dedicate part of our time to practicing avalanche rescue and crevasse rescue."
Petzl: Tell us about your equipment.
Jean Charles Bonsignore: The backpack, of course, includes an avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe. In addition, it also includes the gear for glacier travel and glacier rescue: the ADJAMA harness, the Petzl crevasse KIT, ice screws and rope. And don't forget our faithful ULTRA headlamp, which is indispensable for night rescues, and a pair of 'climbing skins' in case we have to ski uphill…"
Petzl: You are on this mountain every day. Ultimately, what direction do you give to your mission?
Pascal Guibout: "This job would not exist anywhere else. We make it up each day while we are on the mountain. There are no certainties, we can only try to comprehend the elements to the best of our abilities. We are four patrollers, each with his own history, his own experience, his own feelings. But we are all trying, in our own way, to defend an idea: that of a mountain that we can enjoy freely, independently and responsibly. Failure would mean that under a certain pressure, society would no longer accept this idea."
Petzl: What is your strongest memory?
Jean Charles Bonsignore: "One night in December 2009, we went out during the night to search for some English skiers who climbed back up the glacier after getting lost in the Orcières. They had alerted us using their mobile phone. We were really worried because it was -20˚C. Luckily, we were able to locate them quickly using our ULTRA headlamps. Luckily, they were good skiers and they were still in good shape when we got there. In the end, the snow was excellent that night and the rescue, which at the beginning was very delicate, turned into a magic descent in the light of the headlamps … down to the bars of La Grave."
Small Portraits:
Pascal Guiboud, 44 years old.
Originally from Matheysine, Isère, France. Originally a lifty, then a cat driver at l'Alpe du Grand Serre, then a ski patrol avalanche controller, then a high mountain guide since 1993. Member of the La Grave Bureau des Guides and guide patroller since winter 2008/2009. "I have organized my life around the mountain and La Grave. I am totally immersed. I never get tired of this place … even a month after the last snowfall."
Something worth noting is that the day before we met, Pascal had just returned from two days on the north face of the Eiger…
Jean Charles Bonsignore, 41 years old.
At his core there is a strong history as a skier who dreamed of being a ski patrol. Jean Charles has been a mountain risk patroller since 2000. He is also a fireman in the Verdon in summer, a teacher at the l'Ecole d'Application de la Sécurité Civile and a rope access worker. And when he's not working … he's climbing.
Jérôme Gillet, 37 years old.
Hiking guide at the La Grave Bureau des Guides and 1st degree ski patrol. Skiing in La Grave for 11 years and ping-pong champion.
Xavier Cointeaux, 40 years old.
Mountain guide at the La Grave Bureau des Guides. Rope access site manager. In La Grave for 17 years, he has had the time to open some routes that have now become classics.

It is Luis Gonzalez winning in the finals at Safeco Field in those innocent days just before 9/11 -- a flash of brilliance before he went on to hit the game-winner months later in a World Series that helped a nation begin to heal.
The Century 21 All-Star Home Run Derby became a regular attraction, with 10 sluggers, in 1985, and is now the event before the event.
Back in 1985, each invitee had one round to do his damage. Dave Parker did the most, with six, in the revival of the popular event.
Eight of the game's top power hitters will be on the field the night of July 12 at Houston's Minute Maid Park, for the rounds that inevitably leave spectators agape and always bring a surprise.
"The Century 21 All-Star Home Run Derby has become one of the highlights of All-Star Week each year," said Brian O'Gara, senior director of special events for Major League Baseball. "From Mark McGwire's mammoth home runs at Fenway Park in 1999, to great performances in recent years by Sammy Sosa, Jason Giambi, Albert Pujols and last year's champion, Garret Anderson, baseball's best sluggers have put on a great show for the fans in the ballpark and the millions who tune in on ESPN."
Part of the suspense is always in the selection of the sluggers themselves, and this year has an added element of suspense in regard to the setting itself. The retractable roof normally would be closed for a game in the midsummer months, but a decision on that will wait until the event draws nearer, according to MLB officials.
That is important to note, because when the roof is open, the occasional monster shot will go over the left-field concourse and completely out of the park. Should that happen it could bring to mind those dramatic All-Star days when the likes of Reggie Jackson were hitting balls onto the roof of the old Tiger Stadium.
Anderson, the defending Home Run Derby champion, edged the Cardinals' Pujols by the slimmest of margins, 9-8, in last year's Finals at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago. Pujols had been the star of the show, hitting a spectacular 14 in the second round and sending one ball 478 feet, the longest of the night.
Anaheim outfielder Anderson went on to win the Ted Williams Most Valuable Player Award the following night after the All-Star Game.
Pujols perhaps summarized the event best after his three rounds last year: "If you get the opportunity, you want to hit as many home runs as you can. You never know. That's the idea. In the Home Run Derby, you never know."
Much has changed in the years since the Home Run Derby began -- the live ESPN commentary is now heard by both the ballpark crowd as well as the viewing audience -- but the event is still a pure, breathtaking display of the best power hitters playing the national pastime.

National Geographic reported that radioactive material from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, disabled by the March 11th earthquake and tsunami in Japan, continues to enter the ocean and endanger marine animal life. In the beginning of the month, seawater samples taken near the nuclear power plant, on Japan's eastern coast, showed elevated levels of radioactive isotopes. The presence of radioactive isotopes alone is not bad since all life on Earth, and in the oceans, lives with exposure to natural levels of ionizing radiation. Although we are all in contact with high frequency radiation strong enough to change DNA most genetic damage heals because the damage is coming from a natural source of radiation. However, the addition of human-made radiation can make it harder for the body of humans or animals to repair broken genes.
Radiation concentrations in the Japanese seawater samples have peaked at around 3,355 times the legal limit for seawater, which shows that this radiation exposure is far beyond any natural radiation marine life comes in contact with. Once the radiation enters the seawater it can hurt marine life, either killing, creating genetic mutations in offspring, or passing along the radiation up the food chain. Joseph Rachlin, director of Lehman College's Laboratory for Marine and Estuarine Research in New York City, feels that, "there will be a potential for a certain amount of lethality of living organisms, but that's less of a concern than the possible effects on the genetics of the animals that become exposed," and that the main problem is the radiation, "altering the genetics of the animal and interfering with reproduction." However, according to chemical oceanographer Bill Burnett, "The good news is the half life [of iodine, one of the radioactive isotopes] is only eight days," and, "if they stop the source of the radioactive leakage, this is going to be a short-term problem."

ANDERSON, Ind. — A jury has awarded the victim of extreme bullying $50,000, holding her high school liable for its response when digitally-altered and sexually suggestive photos of her circulated among students five years ago.
The six-person jury ruled Tuesday in favor of the woman and her family after they sued the school system and Pendleton Heights High School in Pendleton, north of Indianapolis. The award followed a three-day civil trial.
According to court documents, when the woman, who was 15 at the time, went to school on March 11, 2008, she found there were pictures posted around the school that had been edited with computer software, showing her in a sexually suggestive manner. The fliers also included her phone number.
The case files indicate school officials identified the culprit and immediately suspended him from school, though the victim's family said he was only transferred to another school. He was also charged as a minor for distribution of child pornography and child exploitation and was later placed on juvenile detention.
The woman and her family claimed that South Madison Community School Corp. was negligent in its handling of the matter, that proper counseling wasn't offered to the victim after the incident and that the family struggled to recover.
According to case documents, South Madison denied negligence and contended it acted with reasonable care in the matter.
"I'm glad they found them liable for what happened," the victim said after the Tuesday hearing.
The decision comes on the heels of a state law passed this year that requires school districts to adopt plans with specific timetables for reporting bullying, reporting methods, and a detailed plan of action once bullying is reported, according to an Associated Press report.
One key witness in the case was Dr. Pamela Porter, an expert in post-traumatic stress disorder who counseled the victim and her family after the incident. Porter said the woman now suffers symptoms of PTSD. The victim reported having symptoms of a panic attack the day of the incident, Porter said, and still has difficulty interacting with people without feeling anxious.
Details of this story were reported by The Anderson (Ind.) Herald-Bulletin.

NEW YORK (AP) - Some Yankees fans are getting a free pass for a home game next year, thanks to the foul-up on Mariano Rivera bobblehead night.
A day after the late delivery of Rivera figurines caused a ruckus at Yankee Stadium, the team said any fan with a ticket from Tuesday night's game can get a free seat for a game next year - except for the home opener and old-timers' day.
Because of a transportation issue, the bobbleheads didn't arrive until the third inning of the game against Tampa Bay. The first 18,000 fans were to have received the dolls, and they were given vouchers. The bobbleheads arrived in the third inning, and there were long lines of fans lined up to receive them.
Rivera heard about the mess in the clubhouse while listening to the television broadcast and called to inquire.
"It's amazing, isn't it? They showed a view from the outside. My God, there were thousands of people there," he said.
A truck transporting the bobbleheads broke down in New Jersey.
"Although a perfect storm of circumstances beyond our control led to the delay in the distribution of last night's promotional item, the fact remains that our fans were inconvenienced," Yankees chief operating officer Lonn Trost said. "It matters little why - only that they were."

- The Range Rover Evoque WISE Scholarship
The Range Rover Evoque WISE Scholarship
22 July 2013
WISE are delighted to announce this exciting collaboration between Jaguar Land Rover and WISE to offer sponsorship to three female scholars wishing to pursue engineering at University or as an apprentice.
According to a report published by EngineeringUK, Britain needs to double the number of engineering graduates and triple the number of engineering apprentices by 2020 to meet industry needs. At present, just thirteen per cent of engineering undergraduates are female, aproblem Land Rover is determined to address. In addition to the Range RoverEvoque WISE Scholarship, Land Rover already runs specific training schemes to support ambitious female engineers.
The Range Rover Evoque WISE Scholarship will provide a £9,000 bursary to three female students or apprentices who would like to explore a career or further studies in engineering. In addition the winners will be provided with mentoring support from both Land Rover senior engineers and WISE representatives.
Further information
If you or a friend or family member have finished their GCSE's or 'A' levels and are applying for an engineering degree or apprenticeship then you could be eligible to apply for this scholarship opportunity.
Jaguar Land Rover and WISE have got together to encourage more girls to consider engineering careers by offering this scholarship of £1000 per year for 3 years towards the cost of studying the subject. The scholarship package also includes a summer work experience placement at Jaguar Land Rover, individual membership of WISE and access to WISE mentors. The successful applicant will also be a WISE and Jaguar Land Rover ambassador for the duration of the scholarship.
The Range Rover Evoque WISE Scholarship was launched earlier this month by Zara Phillips at the Royal Windsor Horse Show; to hear her talking about the role of women in engineering in the UK watch the video here. This is a fantastic opportunity for young women considering a future in engineering to kick-start their training and career.
To download the application form or for more information please click here or email Ingrid Ovenstone.
The closing date for applications is 31 August 2013. Terms & Conditions apply.

How to develop a passive income posting ads on the internetThe cost of a domain name is as little as nothing if you make some commitments to certain Internet Service providers.
However the best domain names are registered. occasionally you can pick up a name that falls thru the cracks and is dropped by someone who has lost interest or doesn't understand the potential of a name.
Here are a few guides for understanding the potential of a domain name.
Domain names that are ten characters or less have relatively more potential for appreciation than longer names. Shorter is better than longer.
Domain names that have intrinsic meaning have greater potential for branding and for generating cash flow.
Keywords as components of domain names add potential.
The top level domain extension .com is the most widely used and preferable to many of the recent deluge vanity extensions. Physicians.com is better than physicians.physicians or physicians.doctor or .MD or whatever.
When you have a name that is meaningless to peeps at large ... you have to invest in creating the brand. Developing a list of prospects or customers and then getting them to visit JoeBlow.md is not as easy and natural as DrBlow.com or DrJoeBlow.com. The .MD TLD requires marketing which costs money and is not as familiar as .com
This brief introduction to domain names is designed to convince you that investing in a premium .com name can generate revenues faster and in greater amounts.
Premium names have keywords ... ideally no more than one, two or three.
Thus for example Aquarium.com is theoretically better than Aquariums.com which is better than Aquariumfish.com.
All three of these names have potential however. Here is a list of appraisals of four (4) related names. These values cannot be taken too seriously but are useful as a benchmark of relative value.
As you can see the relationship between pay per click values and the appraisals are inconsistent - as well as the SERP. Most of the following names I am offering have attracted over 10 advertisers which is a healthy sign ...
especially when you consider very little SEO (search engine optimization) has been implemented and these sites are still organic! (organic means that visitor traffic flows to the domain naturally)
See the drop down menu bar (top of this page) for lists of available premium domain names with websites.
Good luck!

A penguin walks through that door right now wearing a sombrero. What does he say and why is he here?
If you were to get rid of one state in the U.S., which would it be and why?
What kitchen utensil would you be?
That's a sampling of Glassdoor.com's Top 25 Oddball Interview Questions for 2013, a list gleaned from job candidates at Google, Kraft Foods, JetBlue and other companies over the past year.
Other offbeat questions on the list include "How many cows are in Canada?" (asked at Google) and "Pick two celebrities to be your parents" (asked at Urban Outfitters).
In some cases, the website also published readers' suggested replies, such as these possible retorts to the penguin-in-sombrero question:
- The penguin says, "Stop asking stupid interview questions."
- So, you don't do drug testing here, huh?
To read the full list of weird questions, click here. And, in the comments section below, tell us the strangest thing a job interviewer ever asked you. Can you top Glassdoor's list?

The state of Mississippi is home to two of the SEC's top three returning quarterbacks.
Welcome to Raycom News Network's live blog from SEC Media Days in Hoover, AL.
ATLANTA (RNN) – With all of the talk regarding pass rushing, matchups, offensive balance and impactful special teams plays, the SEC championship game came down to one critical fact: Georgia struggles to defend the run.
The Bulldogs entered the game 11th in the SEC in rushing defense and gave up their most yards all season against Alabama's punishing duo of Eddie Lacy and T.J. Yeldon.
Lacy, who was named the game's MVP, rushed for 181 yards and two touchdowns and gained more than 9 yards per carry. Yeldon picked up 154 yards and a touchdown. In all, the Crimson Tide (12-1) gained 350 yards on the ground.
It was the first time in SEC championship game history one team had two players gain more than 100 yards, and they had done it by the end of the third quarter.
"We had that 'would not be denied' attitude," Alabama coach Nick Saban said. "This conference will test your mettle, and we beat a really good team. We really couldn't handle their pass rush, and I give our offensive line a lot of credit for getting a hat on a hat so we could run the football."
In Georgia's only other loss of the season, a 35-7 beating at the hands of South Carolina, the Bulldogs (11-2) gave up 230 yards on the ground.
Lacy has been the workhorse for the Tide all season, picking up tough yards and making defenders miss on bruising runs.
"The offensive line got the defensive line off the ball and created tremendous holes, and we were able to hit them for big gains," Lacy said. "We were in position to make big plays to get the momentum on our side."
The Bulldogs were punished on defense and in the second half and were worn down so much, could do nothing to slow the ground attack. Georgia coach Mark Richt said fatigue didn't play as big a factor as the Tide's offensive line.
"Whether we were tired, they were getting blocks," Richt said. "They had two drives where they maybe threw the ball only once and scored a TD. They just lined up and knocked us off the ball. That was impressive."

Warmer Wednesday
A couple of small ripples in the atmosphere will be passing overhead today and tomorrow leading to an increase in cloudiness compared to yesterday's beautiful blue skies. Even with the clouds there will be some filtered sunshine today and more tomorrow. With so much dry air in place at the surface, any precipitation seems highly unlikely, though a few flurries wouldn't be out of the question, especially tomorrow. A gradual moderation in the mercury begins today and will continue through the weekend. Look for temperatures climb through the 40s during the next several days, eventually reaching about 50 degrees by the weekend.
Have a great Wednesday!
