Happiness: Listening to the CD of a Little House Book.
One of the joys of my life, these days, is listening to the audio books of the Laura Ingalls Wilder books. How I love these books – I've read each of them dozens of times (even Farmer Boy), and listening to them with my four-year-old is allowing me to experience them in a new, enormously satisfying way.
When I was young, the last page of Little House in the Big Woods never struck me as particularly interesting, but now I get tears in my eyes every time I read it, and I get tears in my eyes when I heard Cherry Jones reading on the CD, too.
When the fiddle had stopped singing Laura called out softly, "What are days of auld lang syne, Pa?"
"They are the days of a long time ago, Laura," Pa said. "Go to sleep, now."
But Laura lay awake a little while, listening to Pa's fiddle softly playing and to the lonely sound of the wind in the Big Woods. She looked at Pa sitting on the bench by the hearth, the firelight gleaming on his brown hair and beard and glistening on the honey-brown fiddle. She looked at Ma, gently rocking and knitting.
She thought to herself, "This is now."
She was glad that the cosy house, and Pa and Ma and the firelight and the music, were now. They could not be forgotten, she thought, because now is now. It can never be a long time ago.
The days are long, but the years are short.

"Excellent, quick and easy. Loved the pickled onion. Didn't have any gherkin so used dill pickle relish (what a great way to use that up!) Forgot the garlic, added some lemon juice to take some of the creaminess away, a dash of Worcestershire sauce (which I don't think added anything) and threw in a few capers. Wow, it was good, and that from a Bri..."
"Really tasty and quick. I made tartare sauce to go with them, otherwise they may have been a little bland - or maybe you would have just tasted the fish ;-) I couldn't get them to brown, but I'd certainly do them again, they were pretty easy. Thanks!"
"I was horrified after I defrosted beef ribs for a BBQ with friends, only to look up a recipe that said cook them 5-7 hrs!!! Arghh! I made tofu burgers instead then researched further and found this recipe. All I can say is, it's a good job my DH and I had them to ourselves - they were absolutely great, marinaded for 24hrs, cooked as directed and Y..."
"Very tasty. I had to change the instructions a bit - using slices of Eggplant didn't work, so I ended up cutting them into quarters. I didn't have tomato paste, but a tomato so I ended up adding that to the Eggplant, with raw onion and gradually adding everything else back in. I sub'd yogurt for sour cream, but it turned out very tasty. Thanks!"
"REALLY tasty, and very simple. I added a dash of Old Bay seasoning, and some sauteed Eggplant. My only complaint is there wasn't enough, it was so good! Thanks!"
"DH gave it a 5, and "very tasty". I thought it was missing something but still very good. I used spicy sausage, more sauce and fusilli, but it didn't need the extra liquid. I'd make it again and maybe try adding some herbs. Woohoo, another squash gone!"
"I was attracted to this when it promised to use up 3lbs of squash at once. I actually used up one extra large zucchini which would have been fine if I'd peeled it, as the sin was too chewy. I didn't have the nerve to rely on the recipe without some more onion and some cheese in the topping. I microwaved the squash, only used half the butter (I sub..."
"I usually hate reviewers that say "awesome recipe, I just changed this, added that, substituted something else" until it's a completely different recipe......but I added a couple of spicy sausages, made it in a pre-made pie crust instead of the crescent rolls, used cheddar instead of Mozzarella, and it really came out awesome. Which is a good job,..."
"WOWWOWWOW. I'm thinking I should downgrade all my other 5 star ratings so I can give this an exceptional rating. The steak became just a carrier for the sauce, it was that good, and I even forgot the mustard. Not being a fan of the yellow stuff it was probably my subconscious talking, but even the hubby said the sauce was awesome. Praise indeed!"

"Followed the instructions on timing and this quiche set up perfectly. Next time I think I'll add some type of meat for the men in my life who eat quiche."
"This was delicious and easy. I didn't have a pie crust and it still served like a piece of pie. Great with the BBQ Sauce! I'll be making this again."

Mobile gaming is becoming a daily activity nearly in everyone's lives. When iOS came out, several small indie games got popularized. Now wonderful game comes to iOS devices.
Oceanhorn is an open-world action adventure game that follows the same concept as the classic Zelda games. Instead of a linear top-down perspective, the game utilizes the top-down isometric view, similar to XCOM and Fallout games. The story embarks of a young whose father is an adventure and one night he departs to fight with a mystical creature called the 'Oceanhorn'. Since the young boy wonders about his father's whereabouts, he decided to walk in his father's shoes and become an adventurer. The game has its own lore with different humanoid species, lost civilizations and world. As you progress the game, you will discern more about the game's world.
The game has fantastic colorful graphics, great music scores and solid voice acting. These make Oceanhorn a great mobile game that it stands out strong among the other bland mobile games. The graphics are so eye catching and the wonderful background musics gives the game a unique atmosphere. The voice acting during the cutscenes make you watch it with attention. This also helps in understanding the game's story and make it more enjoyable.
The game itself uses many of Zelda's game mechanics. Attack, charger attack, guard, object pick-ups, bombs, arrows etc. The controls work quite well on touch screen and the game itself being simple and easy to play makes it even more enjoyable. The enemies vary and each has different behavior. Some are just punching bags but can be dangerous when they are in size. Some enemies act more clever and requires tactics to overcome them. At the end of dungeons you will face boss battles and they are very challenging and may take several tries to defeat them. Oceanhorn also follows the dungeon crawling method where you may kill enemies to earn XP and gold (or stock up inventory items). You will also face short puzzles where you have to pull and push boxes to open gates or use bombs to excavate hidden areas or even use magic. Items and magics are acquired as you progress the game. Then you may backtrack to access the hidden parts of the islands and dungeons. After finishing dungeons you will jump on your boat travel the seas to discover new islands with new dungeons and surprises. The boat travelling sections do remind Zelda: The Wind Waker but it is more simpler where the boat automatically travels the location you want and you have to use your pumpkin seed rifle to shoot any hostile creatures and objects. Some islands are just for adventuring and some are towns where you meet new people and access the shop.
The game is quite long and can be even more longer if you try to accomplish everything. Although the game can be quite tedious after backtracking becomes and issue and you may get lost on where to continue the game. The game does not keep a quest log so you have to figure it out yourself. The game can be tiresome when trying to solve puzzles or navigate through hidden doors and paths since it has a fixed camera. Since the game is new, you may also faces bugs and glitches.
In general it is an iOS game you must not miss it. The game is only around 160mb and does not ask you any in-app purchases.

Many cases of multiple miscarriages are based on the immune response of the woman's body. When immunologic causes are identified as the source of an inability to get pregnant and carry to full-term, prednisone is often a viable solution to the problem. This steroid is an anti-inflammatory which acts to suppress certain functions of the immune system, thereby allowing the embryo to develop to a point where it can defend itself against antibodies which might otherwise be the causes of miscarriages.
First, Dr. Braverman will conduct a consultation with you to determine whether you should be prescribed prednisone, and we will work out a program designed to help you achieve success after multiple miscarriages. Dr. Braverman will educate you in all aspects of the program, ensuring that you and your partner understand what is expected of you. He wants you to both be active participants in the treatment. Next, he will brief your local doctor on the program, including any necessary information about the use of prednisone in reproductive immunology treatment.
Over the course of the first 12 weeks of your pregnancy, Dr. Braverman will be in contact to monitor your progress. Most of our patients are weaned off prednisone between 8-14 weeks. During the treatment you will have to monitor your blood sugars and watch for any signs of infection or fever. Some women experience mood changes, sleeplessness, weight gain and acne as side effects. The goal of getting pregnant after a miscarriage is normally enough to justify these symptoms.

All in a weekend
Blogging at you one year older here folks! When was the LAST time we did one of these?! Thank my dear blogging bud @heleneisfor of Fashion Over Reason for the tandem excuse to frolic in Brooklyn over the weekend, snapping pics like we only know how. If you follow us on Instagram (@stephaniechic) you already got quite the preview. (#lcccinnyc for those late to the party).
Sunday funday's events included twinsie Chanel Rouge Noir manis at Primp and Polish (hellloooo best mani bar. E.V.E.R) and upon finding out one nail of nail art would tally upwards of 60$bones, I opted for the budget version of a rhinestone look, by way of OPI's Which is Witch. Does the trick folks. Does the trick.
SO! I'll spare you an outfit spiel, save for mentioning these are the kinds of basics I live in these days, and to call upon you to follow my #ootd posts here, if you care for more live updates of this sort of thing.

Green Scissors: Cut Subsidies to the Polluters
February 3, 2002 | Posted by Staff under Progress Report, The Progress Report |
Handouts Keep US Weak, Dependent on Foreign Energy
Energy Polluters Poised to Reap $62 Billion in Taxpayer Handouts
One of the best ways that the US can strengthen itself in the fight against terrorism, is to become independent from Middle East energy sources. Unfortunately, the federal government instead is shoveling welfare handouts at the energy industry, making us weaker and more dependent than ever. Some politicians would rather risk terrorism than disappoint their campaign contributors.
Below is a news announcement from the Green Scissors Coalition (Friends of the Earth, Taxpayers for Common Sense, U.S. Public Interest Research Group).
Out-of-Control Government Giveaways to Oil, Coal and Nuclear Power Could Double, Groups Say
Government subsidies to oil, coal and nuclear power industries could double if the Senate passes the House energy bill (H.R. 4), according to a report released today by the Green Scissors Campaign. "Running on Empty: How Environmentally Harmful Energy Subsidies Siphon Billions from Taxpayers" details new and existing subsidies to oil, coal, gas and nuclear power industries that would total $62 billion over the next 10 years.
"The richest polluters in the land are already raking in enormous, mind-boggling handouts," said Erich Pica, Friends of the Earth, Director of the Green Scissors Campaign. "And our leaders want to give them more while our economy is struggling? It's time for President Bush and Congress to put a stop to this outrageous waste of taxpayer dollars," he added.
"Running on Empty" estimates that existing subsidies and tax breaks to polluting energy industries totaling $33 billion will nearly double, to $62 billion, if the House energy bill (H.R. 4) is signed into law. Coal, oil and nuclear industry allies in Congress are promoting these new subsidies despite the erosion of a four-year budget surplus into a $100 billion deficit.
The report documents some of the tax breaks and subsidies that energy giants such as Enron, which paid no corporate income tax in four of the last five years, lobbied for and got in the House energy bill. Enron — what remains of it — would benefit enormously from tax breaks on pipelines as well as royalty subsidies in the House bill. These handouts, combined, total $4.9 billion dollars to industry over ten years.
But Enron is just the tip of the iceberg. Both ChevronTexaco and British Petroleum have vast assets in the Gulf of Mexico and could potentially benefit from royalty relief and research and development programs targeted towards activities in the Gulf.
The Senate is poised to begin debate on its own energy bill (S. 1766) in the next few weeks. While the legislation is currently incomplete, some dirty energy subsidies are already emerging.
"Profitable energy companies are gunning for this money at a time when we have a growing budget deficit, " said Cena Swisher, Senior Program Director for Taxpayers for Common Sense. "The fuel gauge for the Federal Treasury is on empty and we can't afford these outrageous giveaways to big energy."
"The subsidies and tax breaks in H.R. 4 reward the oil, coal and nuclear industries that dirty our water and foul our air," said U.S. PIRG Staff Attorney Pierre Sadik. "The Senate should reject these enormous polluter giveaways, and move us toward a cleaner, smarter, and more secure energy future."
Since 1995, the Green Scissors coalition, led by Friends of the Earth, Taxpayers for Common Sense and the U.S. Public Interest Research Group (PIRG), has produced analyses of the federal budget that identify wasteful spending that harms the environment. Over the last eight years, the Green Scissors coalition has helped cut or eliminate $26 billion of environmentally harmful spending programs from the federal budget. The new special report focuses on energy programs already in the federal budget in addition to those included in the energy bill passed by the House of Representatives last August.
For more information and a copy of the report, visit http://www.greenscissors.org/publications/
Instead of fighting terrorism by strengthening the US energy policy, politicians seem to want to keep domestic energy producers fat and flabby. What's your opinion on the Green Scissors initiative? Tell your views to The Progress Report!

Sundown: The End of Small Parties?
Plus effort by Jewish lawyer to ban Jews from jury fails
• According to Channel 2 in Israel, the threshold for parties to join the Knesset may rise from 2% to 4%, which would keep small parties out of the Knesset. [ToI]
• A.O. Scott reviews the new PBS documentary on Philip Roth, which will air later this month as the author turns 80. [NYT]
• A federal judge has (unsurprisingly) turned down a request by a lawyer to exclude Jews from a jury involving a man accused of lying about trying to join the Taliban. [JTA]
• Ben Birnbaum writes something new and interesting about the coming end of the chance for the two-state solution. [TNR]
• Natalie Schachar has got the scoop on a new YouTube channel called JASH, which is specially curated by Sarah Silverman and other comedians. [Jewcy]

Hello everybody !!! I ordered some passifloras from Springhill nursery but recently found out that they don't have the best of stock so I want to know of good sources where to get preferably plants but if not seeds as well. Vines are completely new to me but I decided that if I was going to start with them it would be Passifloras.
Thanks for the help !!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
The top 2 sites: Grassy Knoll Exotics - www.gkexoticplants.com Brushwood Nursery - www.gardenvines.com I have worked many times with both Elizabeth, (GK) and Dan, (BN), and they both are very nice people who will provide you with great plants. Grassy Knoll has a larger selection. I have ordered from Elizabeth many times over the years. She has some that you can get nowhere else in the US. Brushwood sells much larger plants, but has less selection so far. He tells me that he is planning on greatly expanding his offerings over the next year or 2. I would buy from both!! Actually, I do! But there are plenty of sites I would stay away from, Spring Hill being one of them for many reasons. Aloha Tropicals, I also do not like, largely because so many of their plants are mislabeled, (that drives me crazy). Logees is overpriced for the size of the plants. Zone 9 topicals has very large, nice plants, but the shipping is very expensive. Micheal Kartuz, (from Kartuz Greenhouses) is a great guy, but I have never ordered from him. I would bet that you get good plants, but I really don't know. It would be worth a try if he has something you are looking for. That's my opinion, anyway. Have fun!! Eric |

Take a look at these old posts. http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/passiflora/msg101444108537.html http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/passiflora/msg1013540413127.html http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/passiflora/msg1014181626259.html |
Just thought that I'd give Grassy Knoll another vote. Elizabeth Peters at Grassy Knoll is extremely nice, as Eric indicated, and is also incredibly helpful. She also seems to have a policy (I know of one exception) of pricing her Passifloras the same regardless of how hard-to-find they are. She sells a lot of things that can only be found on Ebay for several times as much. I bought a Passiflora from Kartuz many years ago, at the Nursery (which I have visited several times). Although I have not ordered mail order from him I would certainly recommend him as a source of plants. I bought a plant from Potato Rock Nursery that I was very happy with. A check suggests that he's not selling any Passiflora at the moment, although I supppose that could change. He sells a lot of other interesting stuff (I just noticed Lapageria rosea, for example). Other than that my purchases have been local, mostly from Strybing. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Grassy Knoll Exotic Plants
Although I haven't tried the others, I will also recommend Grassy Knoll. I have ordered from them on a few occasions and I have been happy every time. Good customer service and always healthy plants. Josh |
Thanks everybody for your imput. I guess that I'll be ordering from Grassy Knolls soon then. I just want to see how these ones that I ordered do and then order from Elizabeth. Thanks again and Happy Gardening !!! |
Put this on another of your posts but since you do live in Florida, you have a wonderful source at Butterfly World. They have a wide variety of plants and you wouldn't have to pay postage. Its Coconut Grove (?) and is a great place to visit to see the butterflies Passionvines will attract (and caterpillars will eat)! |
- Posted by karyn1 MD 7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, Apr 8, 10 at 7:40
It's in Coconut Creek and the do have a great selection of plants. They have many more available on site then is listed on their website. I love going to Butterfly World. The gardens are gorgeous as are the butterflies and hummers. |
I ordered passion vine collection from Springhill and it should be coming in about a week or so.... Now roly0217 got me worrying. How do you know they dont have good plants? |
- Posted by karyn1 MD 7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, May 10, 10 at 20:58
Springhill has one of the worst reputations. You can check on www.gardenwatchdog.com. 360 positives, 130 neutrals & 325 negatives GW won't allow links to their site any longer. I wouldn't buy from a nursery that has just a few negatives and over 50% of their customers posted either neutral or negative feedback. |
Gatitka, Please don't worry. You will likely get plants that do just fine. Just don't expect them to be very large when you get them, and be aware that until you see them bloom and can get a positive ID on it, you may not have the ones you think you do. Also, SH does not have great temperature requirement info. You are best off doing some of your own research before deciding where to plant them, especially if you were thinking about putting them in the ground. Oh, and I have ordered several times from Spring Hill... just not Passifloras. Once in a while they have something I cannot seem to find anywhere else, so I go for it. I would say about half the time I am satisfied with what I get, and the other half I am not... no biggie. At least now you know where to buy Passifloras from in the future!! Also, I never mentioned Ebay. I have heard mixed reports about some sellers, but I can at least speak for two as being solid. Jim Nevers and Kevin... can't remember his last name. I know both of them personally, and can verify they both have great plants and are very particular about being positive on the ID of the plants they send. If you see any being sold by them, fear not!

USGS Education
The concept of "Map Mysteries" is to use topographic and thematic maps as starting points to uncover mysteries about the cultural and physical geography of the Earth. The USGS has published over 75,000 of these maps (actually, the number is more like 250,000). Think about each of these maps as a ready-to-go lesson plan with mysteries to uncover about that corner of the planet and the people who live there.
To obtain USGS Topographic Maps: Download free, digital topographic maps in a georeferenced pdf format through the USGS Store (Click on "Map Locator & Downloader"). Order paper copies of topographic maps from the same site. You have the option of choosing from two different types of topographic maps. "US Topo" maps are computer generated and are updated every three years. They have different layers that can be turned on and off, and include an orthoimagery (air photo) layer. Free analytical tools can be downloaded for working with the US Topos. You can also download or order paper copies of the older "historical" USGS topographic maps. These have not been updated since 2003 (or much earlier). However, the historical maps were all made by hand and were optimized for readability. Students who are learning about maps might find them easier to work with than the newer US Topos.To obtain USGS Thematic Maps: Go to the USGS Store and click on "Education Products" to browse thematic maps that are popular with educators. Many of the thematic maps in the USGS Store have a link to the map's citation in the USGS Publications Warehouse. Follow that link to download a free PDF file of the map. Some maps in the USGS Store have direct links to a free PDF. Paper copies of the maps can be ordered through the USGS Store.
For assistance, call 1-888-ASK-USGS (1-888-275-8747) or go to our Contact USGS page to request information or to initiate a live chat.
Teacher discounts are available for paper maps. Products in pdf format require Adobe Acrobat Reader
The World in Spatial Terms (Location):
Spatial information tells about where things are, and about where things are in relation to each other. Different scales of USGS maps can be used to illustrate these concepts.
Places and Regions (Physical and Human Characteristics):
The description of a place includes its physical and human characteristics. This can be illustrated with
topographic maps and regions of the United States can be compared with maps. Obtain Department of Defense maps from the USGS and compare regions across the world.
Physical Systems (Land, Air, Water, and Living Things):
Physical processes constantly change the Earth's surface. Physical processes also interact with living things, creating and modifying Earth's ecosystems. Weather systems, ocean currents, volcanic activity, and tectonic plate movement affect the landscape and the organisms within it. At the same time, living things release and absorb gases, build and use soil, break down rocks, dam streams, and fill in lakes.
These and many more activities make up the systems that shape Earth's geography. USGS geologic, hydrologic, natural hazards, coal, oil, gravity, geomagnetic, historical, and topographic maps can be used to illustrate these physical systems. Digital USGS data can be loaded in a Geographic Information System to illustrate these concepts, with the use of digital vector and raster files.
Human Systems (Population, Culture, and Interdependence):
Human activities shape Earth's surface. Human settlements and structures are also part of Earth's surface. When people move from one place to another they often change the landscape as they go. In addition, people in different cultures interact with their environment in different ways. USGS geologic, hydrologic, natural hazards, coal, oil, gravity, geomagnetic, historical, and topographic maps can be used to illustrate human systems. What are the dominant economic activities for the people who live in the area you have chosen to
study with your maps?
Environment and Society (Human-Environmental Interactions):
Human activities change the physical environment and ecosystems. In addition, human activities are influenced by the environment and by Earth's physical processes. Thus the interactions between people and the environment occur whenever physical systems and human systems meet -- which is all of the time! USGS maps can be used to illustrate the affect of humans on their environment, and the affect of the environment on human settlement.
The Uses of Geography (Changes Over Time):
Knowing about geography helps people understand the relationships between people, places, and environments over time. Thinking geographically allows us to interpret the past, understand the present, and plan for the future. Geography gives us a "big picture" of humans' place on Earth. Illustrate this with historical editions of USGS maps, comparing them to the latest topographic edition, and discuss the extent to which the area has changed, why the area has changed, and if the changes are increasing or decreasing.

"This was super easy and the texture of the apples turned out perfect - I used 4 granny smith and 2 honeycrisp. I'm just amazed by how little effort it took for a great result! I tweaked the spices a little, using 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, a dash of nutmeg, and a dash of pumpkin pie spice. Whipped cream didn't hurt either!"

"This was a good (and really rich) side dish. I don't think the recipe includes quite enough salt to really bring the flavors to life, so I will probably add more next time I make it. I added a few minced cloves of garlic along with the onion and that definitely added to the dish's flavor."
"I have made a lot of seitan in my day, but this may be the only one I make from now on. It was much more moist than I'm used to, and I fried it up to make an amazing seitan wienerschnitzel.

"This was great! I actually made the Tuscan "chicken" (I used seitan, which turned out great) because I found this recipe - had some heirloom cannellini beans and Swiss chard I needed to use up. I decided the flavor needed a little more complexity, so I added some sauteed mushrooms and onions, which helped. All together, it was a fabulous meal, ..."
"Good stuff! I actually made this with seitan instead of chicken, and it was great, really different from the usual vegetarian fare. I didn't brown the seitan, but simmered it in some broth, lemon juice, white wine, and soy sauce while working on the rest of it. The way I made it, it was more of a 4-star recipe - without the flavor from the brow..."

My sister and I have been using this for years! Years, meaning from our teenage years to us, being moms. This is our daily staple and HG!
I've tried many blushes from powder to liquid, high-end to drugstores, but I kept coming back to this product. This comes in a lip gloss tube-like applicator. It's also portable...but I don't have to carry it around since it stays put all day - no need to re-apply!
I apply this one cheek at a time with my fingers (best tool for this)...I tried applying it both on my cheeks at the same time, but I end up having one rosier cheek (dries up quick). So, I suggest do one cheek at a time & blend. You don't need much, it's highly pigmented.
It has a rosy stain. The only blush that didn't cause me acne / pimples. Works well with sensitive acne-prone skin. Dry or oily, didn't matter. Try it to believe it ;) I find this better than Benetint, which I find very liquid-y.

This is my go-to product almost at all time of day. I don't really wear blush, so I use this as a lip stain. What I like about it is that the color is faint, but noticeable and very natural (at least on my lips). It builds up in intensity, but because it's not completely opaque, it never tends to look overdone. Also, the formula is quite very liquid and light so it doesn't look as obvious as some stains can. Some people might complain that it's bad because there's one color, but I think that's part of it's charm. It's versatile and not completely opaque which means that it blends in with your natural tones better. I buy this all the time and when it goes on sale, I tend to stock up. I wear it every single day. It's a great way of giving your face a little life! I highly recommend it and I like it a lot more than those debuting drugstore lip stains (but that's why this is a tint!).

I love it as a cheek stain because it has great staying power. It gives me a natural flush. I'm very pimply but it doesn't cause any break out for me. As a lip stain, not really a big fan. I don't know if it has something to do with my lips but it just keeps it dry and color doesn't stay long. I don't like the tube too... it spills under the cap.

I had an on and off relationship with this product, mainly because I couldn't figure how to use it properly. But now it's a staple in my makeup drawer. Here's my review.
Formula: liquid, very syrupy. It didn't break me out, which is obviously a big plus for someone with oily, sensitive and acne-prone skin like me.
Color: watermelon color, slightly berry-ish, when applied, it's a very natural healthy rosey color. Pretty! It gives my cheek flush of color, which I don't normally have.
Staying power: mind you, it's a stain, so it stains (I hope I made sense) pretty much all day long. It's splash-resistance, so if I splash my face with water I don't have to re-apply it. Thus, I don't have it in my purse, cuz no touch up required. Oh, but for lips, it doesn't stay very long, esp. if I eat greasy foods.
Application: it's very important to know how to wear this right. It should be applied after moisturizer/foundation and before powder. I dab it along my cheekbone, one cheek at a time, and blend right away. Never leave it unblended more than 10 seconds, otherwise it would be very very hard to blend. Best tools is fingertips, but it'll left obvious stain. Water and soap can clean it, although it annoys me sometime when I'm in hurry.
Packaging: it's ok, I couldn't think fancier or more appropriate packaging. It's easy to store, doesn't leak.
I love it, overall very good product. I sometimes layer a bronzer on top of it

My HG blush. gives me that natural flushed look i love . also since its a tad shiny it naturally highlights my cheekbones . love it . as far as lip stain, not that big of a fan, but i love it as a blush . I'm an NC43 .
so Im a bit peeved off, they seem to have changed the formula and the colour is less rosey now and more red-y . doesn't suit me and it goes on quite harshly now too. thats really depressing because it was my holy frickin grail and the only blush i used :'(

I didn't get on with this product at all. As a blush, it's really difficult to get it to go where I want it to go. As a lip stain, it goes on really well but looks uneven when it dries. Many layers are required to build up colour, and the more I use it, the more uneven it gets. Maybe it's just me though, as others seem to like it. I can't compare it to Benetint as it's been so long since I used the latter I can't really remember what it was like.

I only use this on my lips. I don't like the doe foot, it gets way too much product out. The stain is like a gel and it takes forever to dry unless you apply a thin layer bit by bit. This is good if you want a subtle hint of colour but... I'm staying with Benetint.

I first used this product about ten years ago when cheek tints were all the rage. In those days it came in a glass vial with a rollerball applicator.
A few weeks ago I found it at the back of a drawer and dabbed a bit on, and loved the result. I don't like to wear much makeup day to day, and don't wear any base at all. This is lovely on bare skin, gives a really nice glow and just enough colour, with good staying power.
I was going to buy the bronze shade but got it free with InStyle magazine, ooh I was pleased! It's not all that bronze, and I wouldn't imagine it would be very flattering on olive or darker skintones but it's great on me. I can look sallow but don't at all with this and it isn't "orange". Don't like it on my lips though, it seems a bit sticky and the colour doesn't look good.
I will repurchase the other shade (red) for winter, and will be interested to see if the formula is different now or if it's just the colour that makes it a poor lip tint.

I love this product!!
I wouldn't have tried it but it came free with InStyle magazine. It's amazing, I don't use it as a blush as I have found my favourite (Urban Decay, Quickie), but I use it as a lip stain. It works so well as it distributes the colour evenly, and stays on. Much better than the benetint!

TRIPOLI - The Iowa Department of Natural Resources is hosting a public meeting to discuss a plan for combating brittle naiad in Sweet Marsh Wildlife Management Area. The public meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. on March 31, at the Tripoli Community Center, in Tripoli.
Brittle naiad is an invasive aquatic plant that was first discovered during plant surveys completed on Martens Lake during 2010, and poses a serious threat to native fish, plants and wildlife in Sweet Marsh. Based on experience at other Iowa lakes, if immediate action is not taken, brittle naiad will make it difficult to boat and fish in Martens Lake.
The DNR will present a plan that includes a combination of herbicide application, temporary water-level drawdown and beneficial plant management that is designed to suppress brittle naiad and Eurasian watermilfoil while providing benefits to fish and wildlife in Sweet Marsh.
Staff with the DNR will present details on the Invasive Plant Management Plan for Sweet Marsh during the meeting. Those attending the meeting will have an opportunity to provide written questions regarding the plan following a short presentation.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Ellie!
Facts about Ellie
- Breed: French Bulldog
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Ellie's Info...
I am purebred, a special needs pet, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Born with deformed back legs loves her new wheelchair runs like crazy !!!
Got a temp wheelchair but must have one fit for her obtained
Dumped in a local shelter by someone who found her on the side walk hopping around.
She loves to give kisses and acts like nothing is wrong.
She wears her diapers with diaper cover
Other Pets at Ruff Rehab Inc - Pompton Lakes Chapter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Ellie, a Pompton lakes French Bulldog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a French Bulldog for sale in Pompton lakes, or seeking a French Bulldog dog from a breeder in Pompton lakes.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Pompton lakes already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Pompton lakes breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even French Bulldog breeders who help with French Bulldog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Pompton lakes paves the way for another one to be saved.

Certain responses are conditioned into people, including what might be my least favorite knee-jerk reaction: "I could never do that."
In the past nine months, as we've gone public with The Power of Half, that might be the response we hear the most in reaction to our decision to cut our living space in half and give half the proceeds to charity. Usually, the phrase is said with a smile and a marveling at how our family is a bit nuts. And, I might add, I hear "I could never do that" most frequently from people of means, including Wall Street traders.
The "I could never do that" reply triggers two thoughts for me -- one that I say and one that I keep to myself. The one I say is this: "We're not asking you to sell your house; we're only suggesting that you determine what you have more than enough of, then cut that one thing in half so that you can share with others. Time, talent, treasure, you decide."
The one I don't say is this: "I am almost certain you can; you don't choose to." Let me quickly say that in extreme cases (job loss, family illness, etc) the choice of living with half a house might be impractical. But for many people, we've just made choices, settled into a life of comfort. There's nothing wrong with that, if it makes you happy.
What is wrong, though, is believing that it would be impossible to change your mindset. We have more power than that. We have more creativity than that. What's your half?

Delicious, Healthy, Fun….recipes for back to school.
Our annual healing retreat for families with kids with special needs at Hacienda del Sol Resort ended on July 27th... Families and volunteers fly in from around the country to participate!
Healing Programs offered by Integrative Touch for Kids (ITK) are based on ITK's "Health-Caring" model. "Health-Caring" provides an extension of care that focuses on the individual's mind, body, spirit and community connections through integrative healing therapies and on-going education and support. Children and family members gain access to a large spectrum of therapies that can complement current western medical care.
Education is not preparation for life…education is life itself!
Having learned so much this week, we wanted to share some of our knowledge and healthy eating recipes with you.
Glutens; Because wheat is everywhere in our American diet, going gluten free will mean giving up most breads, crackers, conventional pastas and much more. Whenever you give up whole categories of food you're used to eating, you run the risk of losing nutrients.
The basis of a gluten free diet should be natural foods, lean meats, fruits and vegetables and low fat dairy products. Grains that do not have gluten are quinoa and amaranth, more and more products are made with these grains. Going gluten free alone will not cause weight loss; many gluten free products are carb laden such as bagels, pretzels and baked goods. Quality, quantity and balance are what matters most. Exercise is important to any healthy lifestyle, walk, run or dance…just keep moving.
Here are three healthy snack recipes from our pastry chef Marcos Castro. These delicious recipes were a big hit with kids and adults.
Coconut Date Cookies
Dates 1 cup
Rolled Oats ¼ cup
Coconut flakes ½ cup
Baking powder 1 teaspoon
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
Brown sugar 1/2 cup
Olive oil 1 tablespoon
Coconut milk ¼ cup (substitute with any milk)
Place dates and one cup of water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Drain and puree dates. In a mixing bowl blend together oats, coconut flakes,baking powder, vanilla extract, brown sugar into a bowl and mix together. Add olive oil, coconut milk, and date puree until fully incorporated. Chill in refrigerator for one hour. Scoop 1oz. of cookie mixture unto a non stick cookie pan and bake at 325 for 8-10 minutes. Makes 12 cookies
Homemade Chocolate Pudding
Sugar ¼ cup
Dark chocolate 3 oz
Cornstarch 2 tablespoons
Organic milk 2 cups
Mix one cup of milk with cornstarch and stir until fully dissolved. Heat the remainder of the milk with the sugar in a sauce pan until sugar dissolves, add chocolate and stir until fully melted. Mix in cornstarch milk mixture, cook until it begins to thicken (stirring constantly). Remove from heat and pour into a bowl or individual serving dish, and chill for 2-4 hours. For an even healthier version add 1ripe banana and ½ ripe avocado puree and blend with pudding mixture while hot, then chill. Makes 2 ½ cups
Raw pumpkin seeds 1/3 cup
Raw sunflower seeds 1/3 cup
Sesame seeds 1/3 cup Rolled Oats
2 cupsGround Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Maple syrup
3 tablespoonsCoconut oil
3 tablespoons Vanilla extract
1 teaspoonRaisins
1/4 cup Cacao Nibs ¼ cupDried cranberries or apricots ¼ cup
Mix together all of the ingredients and bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes. Store in an air tight container and serve with yogurt, pudding or your favorite ice cream.

reviews & comments (78)
This was excellent. I made it for a party, put it in mini beer glasses and they disappeared so fast it made my head spin. Easy to make. The Guinness adds zing to mouth feel without adding any significant stout taste that interferes with the chocolate.
I've read the reviews and have made this recipe a few times. So, here's the deal; I love this recipe. I'm Irish and I'm a pastry chef. I do not find it labor intensive; it helps to have all ingredients ready to go which will make this recipe an easy task. Some people mentioned the use of corn starch because their pudding was runny...Never use corn starch with pudding. Instead use proper heat and timing and you will always have perfect pudding with less additives and more authentic flavors. For more Guinness flavor, you can make a reduction with all of the Guinness and split the reduction 50/50 between the cream and pudding mix. This will reduce the cooking time since there is less liquid. I personally prefer the contrast of flavor between the pudding and cream, so I stick to the original recipe amounts. For my drinking friends, I've also added whiskey (Jameson) to the cream for an extra punch. Some people mention the bitter taste¿if you don't like bitter and beer, this recipe is not for you. Though its adorable, I don't use the pint glasses and instead use small rounded stemless glasses- it's a smaller, more realistic serving size of the dessert. You can also find mini 'pint' shaped glasses online and they are often referred to as 'taster' glasses. Hope this helps. Enjoy!
Very rich, but so delicious! Expect that it is somewhat labor intensive, but well worth it. It usually takes 2 of us to get through making this. My family always looks forward to this on St. Patrick's Day!
If I could give it more forks, I would. Wonderful!! I used plain, lightly sweetened whipped cream for the topping. I will not make any other chocolate pudding!
Everyone who tries this, LOVES it! My mother even requests this instead of her birthday cake. Be sure to temper the eggs slowly and use the blender as it can affect the texture if you don't. Enjoy!
Fabulous! I cocked up and halved the recipe, but didn't halve the Guinness, oops. It probably worked out well as the chocolate I used turned out to be more semi-sweet than bitter-sweet. Still, it was a lovely texture, and a nice balance of sweetness and bitter, and indeed quite rich: My housemate couldn't finish his, what a tragedy that I had to have more. I'm making it again, and this time I'm intentionally doubling the Guinness called for, going with fully bittersweet chocolate, and I'm not going to burn the Guinness syrup either! (It was perfectly palatable with just slightly sweetened whipped cream) I like the idea of a Baileys whipped cream though, so if there's any of that around next time I make this, that's going on top.
Tasty, but too sweet. I'm a bit nervous about losing the texture by cutting back on the sugar, but will try it if I do decide to make this again.
Figured out it was MY mistake in reading the recipe...whoops! So I made it again, and...WOW!! It's amazing! Definitely VERY rich but definitely will make this again sometime. I omitted the Guinness syrup in the whipping cream per other reviews which really complimented the pudding...but then again, I'm not much of an actual Guinness fan in the first place so I didn't miss it but the Guinness was sure good with the chocolate!! Definitely needs the whipped cream to help temper the richness of the dessert...so good...
This was a HUGE hit with my friends. I have made it twice now. I changed it up just a little and used one bar of 72% cacao and one bar of 90% cacao. I also added 3 tablespoons of Sugar to the "foam" that way it was a little sweeter. I put the pudding in little 9 oz clear plastic cups to make it look more like a little drink.

CRI's new website that seeks to engage, educate, and empower patients and their loved ones to learn more about cancer immunotherapy as a treatment option across numerous tumor types.
Cancer patients, donors, scientists, and other supporters all stand behind the Cancer Research Institute. Read their stories and learn about what motivates each of us to keep fighting against cancer.
By running in a marathon or hosting a bake sale, you can make a real difference for our scientists in the fight against cancer and allow them to bring newer immunotherapies to more patients.
We gratefully accept donations made in memory or in honor of a loved one. Your gift will be acknowledged to whomever you specify.
Numerous challenges can derail progress in finding new immune-based cancer treatments. We're solving some of the biggest challenges, keeping promising new immunotherapies on the fast track to patients.
Curious about the latest developments in cancer immunotherapy research? Listen in as leading scientists discuss immune-based treatments across numerous cancer types in our free "Breakthroughs in Cancer Immunotherapy" webinar series.
When the Cancer Research Institute was founded in 1953, we knew then that immune-based treatments would transform cancer medicine. In more than six decades since, we've made numerous groundbreaking discoveries that have given more patients new hope today.
Colorectal cancer is one of the major cancer types for which new immune-based cancer treatments are currently in development. This page features information on colorectal cancer and immunotherapy clinical trials for colorectal cancer patients, and highlights the Cancer Research Institute's role in working to bring effective immune-based cancer treatments to people with colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer among both men and women in the United States, and is the second most deadly. The name may refer to colon cancer or rectal cancer, which share many of the same disease characteristics.
Colorectal cancer begins in the lining of the colon or rectum. It can spread deeper into the colon or rectum wall or, in the case of advanced cancer, into other organs and lymph nodes. Over 95% of colorectal cancers are adenocarcinomas, a type of tumor that originates in the mucus-producing glands of the colon or rectum.
It is estimated that 1 in every 20 people will develop colorectal cancer. In 2014, it is projected that there will be 96,830 new cases of colon cancer and 40,000 new cases of rectal cancer in the U.S. Approximately 50,310 deaths are expected in the U.S. and 600,000 worldwide.
Overall death and incidence rates among men and women have been declining for the past 20 years, thanks largely to screening tests that help detect early-stage cancer and pre-cancerous polyps. Among adults under 50, however, incidence has been rising by 1.7% annually since 1992.
Due to underuse of screening tests, only 39% of colorectal cancers are diagnosed at an early, localized stage, when the 5-year survival rate is 90%. At the locally advanced stage, when the cancer has invaded nearby organs or lymph nodes, the 5-year survival rate is 69%. If the cancer has distant organs, the 5-year survival rate drops to 12%.
Lifestyle-related risk factors include physical inactivity, obesity, high intake of processed or red meat, long-term smoking, alcohol consumption, and a diet lacking in vegetables and fruits. Personal or family history of colorectal cancer (and/or polyps), and a personal history of type 2 diabetes, chronic inflammatory bowel disease or genetic disease such as Lynch syndrome or familial adenomatous polyposis, have also been associated with increased risk.
The most common treatment for colorectal cancer is surgery. In the case of localized tumors, surgery may completely eliminate the cancer. When the cancer has invaded the bowel wall deeply or the lymph nodes, chemotherapy (sometimes in combination with radiation therapy) is administered before or after surgery.
Standard first-line chemotherapy for metastatic colon cancer can consist of one of two regimens: FOLFOX (5-FU, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin) or FOLFIRI (5-FU, leucovorin, and irinotecan). Adding bevacizumab (Avastin), a monoclonal antibody that helps cut off the nutrient supply to the tumor by suppressing blood vessel growth (anti-angiogenesis), may also help improve survival when included with either treatment regimen. Cetuximab (Erbitux) and panitumumab (Vectibix), both monoclonal antibodies against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), have also been shown to improve survival when administered with multi-agent chemotherapy; these antibodies, however, are only effective in patients whose tumors lack RAS mutations.
Aflibercept (Zaltrap), a fusion protein binding the growth factors VEGF-A, VEGF-B, and PGF was also approved for second line treatment with chemotherapy.
In September 2012, the FDA also approved regorafenib (Stivarga), an oral drug that targets multiple tyrosine kinases, for patients who progressed on prior therapy.
Approximately 50% of colon cancer patients will be diagnosed with liver metastases. This may occur either at the time of initial diagnosis or as a result of disease recurrence. Only a small proportion of patients with liver metastases are candidates for surgery, and other techniques and systemic treatments provide some alternative options, including ones currently being tested in clinical trials.
For colon cancer, clinical trials may be appropriate or encouraged in the following cases:
Go to our Clinical Trial Finder to find clinical trials of immunotherapies for colorectal cancer that are currently enrolling patients.
Current immunotherapies for colorectal cancer fall into three broad categories: checkpoint inhibitors, cancer vaccines, and adoptive cell therapy. These therapies are still in early-phase clinical testing (phase I and II) for colorectal cancer, but their successful use in other types of cancers suggests that they may ultimately prove useful for colorectal cancer as well.
A promising avenue of clinical research in colorectal cancer is the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors. These drugs work by targeting molecules that serve as brakes on the immune response. By blocking these inhibitory molecules, checkpoint inhibitors are designed to unleash or enhance pre-existing anti-cancer immune responses. The following trial is currently recruiting patients:
Cancer vaccines are designed to elicit an immune response against tumor-specific or tumor-associated antigens, encouraging the immune system to attack cancer cells bearing these antigens. Tumor antigens that have been targeted in colorectal cancer include carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), MUC1, guanylyl cyclase C, and NY-ESO-1. Several clinical studies of cancer vaccines for colorectal cancer are open, including:
In this approach, immune cells are removed from a patient, genetically modified or treated with chemicals to enhance their activity, and then re-introduced into the patient with the goal of improving the immune system's anti-cancer response. Clinical trials include:
Immunotherapy as a potentially promising approach for treatment of colorectal cancer is based on several lines of evidence. The earliest came from a landmark study in 1998 by Haruo Ohtani, M.D., who demonstrated that the presence and location of CD8+ killer T cells within the tumor microenvironment (aka "tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes," or TILs) correlated with colon cancer outcomes. Specifically, he showed that the accumulation of CD8+ T cells within the tumor correlated with and could predict improved patient survival, whereas accumulation of the same cells in the tumor periphery did not. These studies provided early evidence that immunotherapies that can induce or enhance optimal immunologic conditions within colorectal cancers may hold promise for extending the lives of colorectal cancer patients.
Studies to characterize immunological parameters that can aid prognosis have recently led to the development of a new tool, the Immunoscore, by Jérôme Galon, Ph.D., which provides a novel way of classifying tumors that works better than the current staging system in predicting rate of relapse and survival in colorectal cancer patients. The traditional tumor staging system (TNM classification) provides limited prognostic information, and does not predict response to therapy. The Immunoscore, as an addition to TNM staging, may provide an essential prognostic and potentially predictive tool that can facilitate clinical decision-making, including rational stratification of patient treatment. An international task force, involving investigators in more than 20 countries, is now under way to validate the Immunoscore, the results of which may lead to the implementation of the Immunoscore as a new component for the classification of cancer, designated TNM-I (TNM-Immune). A recent paper, on which CRI CEO Jill O'Donnell-Tormey, Ph.D., is a co-author, discusses these efforts in more detail. (Access the Paper)

I think most realise that this is all in fun and nothing to be counted on really....BUT I do think this thread is a great idea to make complaints against the individuals/sites that have been (or been implicated in) ripping people off i.e. not delivered readings and skipped off with money. I say this because I have suspected some have tried to drum up business here and know for a fact that they have at other sites and did rip people off. Here's mine.

Hey,first.. Sorry if this isn't a good place to post this. Didn't know where else to put it. Anyways. Ive accumulated some second edition book and I must sell them.. For budget reasons and because it simply never makes it to our table.. The ones I have are;
Shades of empire
Old world bestiary
The thousand thrones
Tome of salvation
Karak azgal
Terror in talabhiem
Paths of the damned: ashes of middenheim and spires of altdorf
I live in Alberta.. So would like to ship individual books not to far. But if someone is interested in several of them.. I'd be willing to ship to US as well. I'll accept any price, don't think they are exactly worth much. Thinking $5-$10 a book. Open to negotiations though.
Thanks in advance! Facepalm
Ps. Might as well mention it here… Trying to sell some army books as well. If your interested just ask.

I'm looking at the Weber Genesis grills. I see the burners run side to side instead of front to back like I'm used to. Do any of you have any problems with this set up, or do you like it better? Do you have any problems using it for indirect cooking?
Also, do you prefer the stainless steel or the enameled cast iron grates? I had a little problem with my other grill and the enameled cast iron grates getting a little rusty. (That was after 1 year, then a tree fell on it and smashed it, so I don't know bad it might of got.) Thanks for all you help. Sue K. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Traditionally Weber Gas Grills have been side to side burners...I have grown to prefer this design and love Weber grills and their customer service. More recently they purchased another company...I believe Ducane, and integrated their fore and aft design into the Weber Summit line so you now have a choice. I have a Genesis and like it a lot. Indirect is easily accomplished using only the back and front burner. Currently I have the stainless steel grates, but have had cast, and porcelain on previous grills. I suspect the stainless is the most substantial, but they will all deteriorate over time. Keep the grates of any grill coated and seasoned with cooking oil and they will last a long time. |

That's too bad about the tree :-( I actually have one weber grill, and one viking. I don't find too big of a difference between side to side and front to back, besides where you put the meat if you don't have all of them on. I prefer stainless steel. Making sure they're clean and seasoned is important, and I've had mine for over 4 years. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Weber Grills
We had a black Genesis for 11-12 years. The grates needed replacement maybe every 5-6 years -- and that was not using a cover or taking exceptional care of them in humid Gulf Coast weather. Not a big deal, and the box itself was solid as ever. They make a good grill. It is tempting when you see larger grills for half the price, but lift the lid and look at the build and weight -- you'll get less than half the life out of it. About a month ago, we discovered the burners were in need of replacement. We could have replaced them -- I am starting to think you can keep a Weber working for a lifetime if you are willing to replace parts occasionally. But we had already decided that it was time to get a new grill and would not do more repairs. We bought a new one - -in part to get a larger one now that the boys are teens and have teen boy friends (we need to cook more burgers than before ;-) ). Our new one cooks front to back, which is good for when we are only doing something smaller like burgers for the 4 of us, but we never had an issue with the side to side. Both can work well. Hope that helps. |

Lewis' All-American duo of outside hitter Geoff Powell and setter BJ Boldog gave all they could muster, but the No. 9 Flyers fell just short of their second consecutive NCAA Final Four.
No. 12 Loyola ousted Lewis 23-25, 25-23, 10-25, 25-23, 15-7 for the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association title Saturday at Neil Carey Arena, which gives the Ramblers an automatic berth into the National Semifinals.
Loyola heads to UCLA's Pauley Pavilion on May 2, with the NCAA championship match scheduled for May 4.
Loyola's Joe Smalzer, the MIVA Player of the Year and a Marist graduate from Palos Heights, blasted a match-high 20 kills. His relentless attack at the net earned him the MIVA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player Award.
"I've got to credit my setter (Peter Hutz) for keeping me high," Smalzer said. "You swing hard and hope for the best. If you take any speed off it or try to roll it, Lewis will take it the ball and run it back at you. So you have to stay aggressive the whole time."
All-tournament selections Thomas Jaeschke (15 kills) and Cody Caldwell (12 kills) also contributed for Loyola (22-9), which garners its first MIVA title in eight tries.
Lewis (20-10) was paced by Eric Fitterer (16 kills), Powell (15 kills), Boldog (44 assists) and Jay Petty (nine kills, eight digs). All four earned all-tournament honors.
"I think in failure, you can come back and succeed if you take it and learn from it," Boldog said. "And I think that's what we're going to do heading into next year."
Lewis looked ferocious in a 25-10 third set victory that moved them one game from the Final Four, but Loyola battled back behind stellar passing and the play of Smalzer at the net.
"I thought they ball-controlled better than we did," Lewis coach Dan Friend said. "If you look at the stats, it's like, 'Hey, Lewis kind of out-stated them.' But in the sense of the game, they were a little bit better controlling the ball each play, which put them in better position to score points at opportune times."
Lewis looks to contend again next season, as Petty a redshirt senior, will be the only major factor it loses.
"It's tough," Petty said. "It's been an up and down year, and we really came together as a team at times. We really pushed each other to get better as a players, and at the end of the year, that's all you can really ask for. I couldn't be prouder of these guys."
