I need to find some comfy flat shoes for work, preferably ballet flat style or decent sandals. I do a lot of walking in them so they need to be quite well made. I'm not in corporate wear at the moment because of my pregnancy so am in dresses and cardigans mainly, if I can't find a ballet flat style a sandal will suit.
I had a pair of rubber croc ballet flats but they now have got holes in the soles because I do so much walking.
Ive looked at Ziera but they a simply too expensive. I guess I'm wanting something with a thick sole.
No idea where else to look.

I like el naturalista shoes. They make a range of shoes, sandals and boots that have thick soles. I find them very comfy.
They are on sale at amazon.de.

I love Hush Puppies. Picked up a pair for $39 in the sales but generally they are quite expensive.

Diana Ferrari make good shoes but they are expensive, like $120 a pair, they will last for years though
Posted 17 January 2013 - 10:24 PM
I love Birkenstocks. It took me a week to get used to them, but I think that's training you to walk correctly. So comfortable and so many styles to choose from.

Saba have balket flats on sale at the moment. I bought the bkue ones. Onky thing is the leather sike is a little slippery. It will be better once worn in.

Do you have a Rivers store near you?
They have a big range of flattish shoes that aren't that expensive. Ballet flats aren't very supportive, so I would go with something that is a little more chunky in the sole.

I have recently picked up some Target ballet flats for work. They are the comfiest (sp??, nothing looked right) I have worn in a long time and only $15 each. I actually went back and bought 3 other colours in the same style.
They have padding in them so they aren't as thin under your foot as some cheap ones are. They are Target Essentials brand and have flowers made out of the same material on the toes.
They are the ones in red on the bottom row (Tasty ballet flats)
Posted 18 January 2013 - 10:44 PM
I second Rivers. Cheap, but comfortable, look good and wear well.
Posted 18 January 2013 - 10:51 PM
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE Suna shoes. They're expensive, but real leather, and gorgeously comfortable.
Try the casual shoes section
Posted 18 January 2013 - 10:56 PM
I've had some lovely supercomfy Stegman sandals that were maybe under $50 in the online sales so not sure their full price - not the best looking shoes though!

I have these shoes in black and they are soooo comfy. The padding on the innersole is comfy. I liked them so much I went back for another pair. They also come in a few colours.

I only wear flats and I have many many pairs in all different brands. By far, out of everything I've ever tried, Blochs are the best.
I've got my mother on to them too now.
One thing I've found is what brands are comfortable to who differs person to person. I have bought many flats based on what I've heard from very expensive to very cheap and none have come close to Bloch. I buy them all on sale from $40-80 from their store or amazon have them too.
One memorably purchase was Tory Burch Reva flats which apparently the best things out. I bought two pairs and they were so bad just wearing them around the carpet that I had to send them back. Others I've bought I haven't found as comfy as others say but they're wearable.
For me its best to buy something returnable and wear them around on carpet for a while that day to see if they suit my feet.

I find Colorado shoes very comfortable & last well.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:22 AM
I wore these pretty much all through pregnancy at work http://www.shoesuperstore.com.au/ecco-sky-mj-211533-black
I found the mary jane styles had better arch support which I really needed at the time, I also walked home in them until about 7-8months which was about 3km so they really took a pounding
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:26 AM
I am jealous of all of you who can wear ballet flats!
I have tried about 100 different pairs and none of them fit my feet... Apparently I have different sized feet when it comes to those shoes lol
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:28 AM
Planet Shoes are really comfortable. Myer sell them, but you can buy them considerably cheaper online.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 09:21 PM
Walnut of Melbourne are comfy....you can buy online but I would recommend buying them at a stockist (unless u r in melbourne!) think DJs stock them. They range from $40 up
Posted 21 January 2013 - 02:33 PM
I love my Target ballet flats ... I am quite heavy on shoes so change them every season so don't spend a lot. The Target ones come in heaps of colours and are the most comfortable ballet flats that I have ever worn

I was coming in to recommend Rivers too, they are dirt cheap but the most comfy shoes I've found in a long time - and I only wear comfy shoes due to a bunch of foot issues.
If you have the $ to spend, NAOT do some great stuff too - but be prepared to pay over $200 for many of them.
I've tried a few Target shoes and they don't work for me - too narrow fitting and not enough padding under the ball.

Thanks everyone I will have a look at everyone's suggestions. I need a black pair and a red pair.
Posted 21 January 2013 - 03:46 PM
Birkenstocks! I have lived in mine for a long time but since getting pregnant have worn nothing else - mostly due to fluid retention!!
I have Boston style in grey felt - bought on EBAY for waaaay cheaper than here.
And for sandals the Mayari in black matte.

Aren't Rivers owned by a cult with a record of abuse? Or am I making that up totally? *disclaimer* - might be making that up.
I love Hush Puppies.
I hope you're making it up - Rivers are about the only shoes that I can afford that don't give me pain....
Posted 21 January 2013 - 09:41 PM
I'm another one who love the Target ballet flats (the ones with the flowers on the top) .. I have them in black, ivory & green! Only problem is they do get smelly but for $15 each I don't mind chucking them and buying new pairs every few months.

Cooking Vegan
Reviewed by
Maria Siano
Covering the basics of vegan eating, this cookbook is a how-to manual for those already following the diet, as well as those considering adopting it for environmental, animal-friendly, or health conscious reasons. Through easy-to-follow recipes, Melina, a registered dietician, and Forest, a professional chef, show that a vegan diet can be very accessible.
A secondary focus of the book is on the basics of cooking in general. The uncomplicated recipes will appeal to all beginning chefs, and anyone who wants to make healthy meals but doesn't have a lot of time to spend preparing them.
The mix of dishes, some requiring only assembly and others involving more ambitious cooking techniques, include vegan staples such as granola, hummus, and pesto, along with traditional meat- and dairy-based recipes that have been updated with vegan-friendly substitutions: Gardein's vegan chick'n scallopini is used in a paella dish; shepherd's pie is made with vegan ground round; and "Vegan Dazs" ice cream is made with frozen bananas. A variety of ethnic flavors, including Mexican, Italian, and Thai, are found in recipes for cranberry-ginger relish, baked yams with lemon and green chiles, and coconut-saffron rice. Most ingredients are found in all major supermarkets, with few exceptions; recipes calling for hempseed oil and hempseed milk might require a trip to the local health market or Whole Foods, but substitutions for these items are also suggested.
A discussion of how to blend the six tastes professional chefs like Forest strive for when developing a dish encourages readers to take inspiration from the recipes provided and create their own, a theme carried throughout the cookbook. Several entree recipes, including a potato bar, a salad bar, and international roll-ups, are presented in chart form, and offer unlimited possibilities for readers to assemble meals based on flavors they prefer.
With a strong focus on health, Melina and Forest provide a complete nutritional analysis and breakdown of calories, fat content, carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, and minerals with each recipe, dispelling the myth that a vegan diet will not provide enough protein and other needed nutrients.
An element missing from the book is the use of visual aids. The authors state in the opening chapters that "we eat with our eyes first," but they do not follow through by including photographs, which most readers expect in a cookbook.
By demystifying the basics of a vegan diet for the home cook, Melina and Forest illustrate that a healthy, socially-conscious diet can also be flavorful and easy to prepare.

Last night I was lucky enough to be a part of a historic art show involving over 100 hand painted wooden crosses. The art show included some of my dearest friends and some of my favorite artist. I want to thank my friend Franco of Vatican Studios for including me in such a special event. Here's my piece.

* Disclaimer: I don't like the word "diet" — but unfortunately it's what most people trying to live a healthy lifestyle relate to.
Let's face it — we're creatures of habit and most often eat the same things over and over again. And whether you're trying to lose weight, maintain your healthy lifestyle, or have a healthy relationship with food, it can get pretty boring.
I know even for myself, though I've overcome my battle with dieting, poor body image, low self-esteem, and avoiding parties because I felt fat and like crap — and though I do lead an overall healthy lifestyle (chocolate included!) I sometimes find myself in a rut and not enjoying my food or exercise routine.
So What Causes This Rut?
Simply put: Boredom. Ourselves, our bodies, and our tastebuds get fed up. They're saying: Another lunch of chicken breast, green beans and brown rice AGAIN?
In addition to just the overall boredom of our tastebuds — by eating the same foods over and over again your body may start missing out on some essential vitamins and nutrients. So it could be your body's way of saying "time to shake things up!"
Though strange as it may seem — sometimes I don't even realize I'm in the rut. Sometimes it's the fact that I've gone to the candy jar 5 times today (yes, I do sometimes keep candy in my house) and still don't feel satisfied. Or it's the fact that I haven't wanted to go to the gym for the last 3 weeks, because if I get on that treadmill one more time I feel like I'm gonna lose it!
So here are some easy tips to help get you out of that rut and start feeling good again:
1) Eat a new food — something you've never tried before — at least once this week. Now when I say "food" I mean a whole food, not the newest version of Snickers with Almonds. There's an abundance of real, whole foods out there, but when we go grocery shopping we generally get the same old things. Try something easy and basic. Instead of green beans try butternut squash. Instead of starting your meal with a salad — try an avocado (just cut it in half — so one half per person — add some salt, pepper and a bit of dressing on it and viola!)
2) Eat something that's in Season. I love it when the seasons change as usually by the end of the season I'm tired of the same old things. Now that Fall is here it's time for things like squash, cauliflower, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, apples, pears, cranberries, and pomegranates — just to name a few. So take a look what's in season in your area, and usually when food is in season it's cheaper too.
3) Eat the same food, but prepared in a different way. Always steam your green beans and just add butter and salt? Add some blue cheese and walnuts to them instead. Or maybe try adding some zest from an orange and sliced almonds. Ditto for your meat or proteins — dig into some of the recipe books you have and try a new way of preparing chicken (try chicken thighs — they're much cheaper and tastier than chicken breasts). You might be surprised and find some new favorite recipes. So do this once this week — prepare your favorite food in a different way.
4) Try a new way to move your body (ie find a new way to exercise). Always going for a walk, or doing those exercise DVD's (maybe not!) or only go to the gym a few days a week? Try something new! Even if it's just one day a week. Try swimming, biking, hiking, dancing, ice staking, yoga, pilates, zumba, kickboxing (you get the idea). But make sure it's something that's FUN for you. Not only will it help relieve the boredom but you might just find your body responds better by getting firmer (because when you do the same exercises over & over again your muscles aren't challenged anymore and could hinder any weight loss).
So getting out of the rut really is quite simple. Sure it will take a bit of extra effort but it's minimal and definitely worth it! Some of my favorite foods are things I tried for the first time I went abroad, and then when I lived in France, and even some are new things I've tried within the last year or two. And I'm always discovering something new.
So get out and try something new. Your tastebuds and your body will thank you for it!

Some of this season's bright spots are obvious- Mez and Cueto, Chapman with 100 k's in 51 innings for instance. Other signs of hope are less obvious but maybe if you have noticed something it can come here.
I will throw up Billy Hamilton and pitch counts.
On the season Billy has average 3.79 pitches per plate appearance. Before the all star break he saw 3.68 p/pa but after the break it has been 3.94 after having seen 4.12 p/pa in Aug and 4.00 p/pa in September coming into tonight. He actually saw the most p/pa in June when he had his best month by far at the plate but regressed in July. NL average is 3.81 p/pa.
His walk rate while still not good has improved from .047 before the break to .068 afterwards. On the season he sits at .056 which is 51st out of 65 qualified hitters. But his second half rate would move him up to 39 if he stayed at that level. Not great but a start. http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/batting...pe/sabermetric
He still has less than 3/4 the walks that Votto had on his brief season but if he can continue to improve his patience and draw more walks it will improve the chances for him to get on base enough to stay at the top of the lineup and be effective enough to justify it.

'Breaking Bad': The Meaning of the Finale's Last Song
The final shots of the AMC hit featured the '70s song from the British rock band.
[Warning: Spoilers ahead for the series finale of Breaking Bad.]
Breaking Bad has ended -- but not before giving fans one final song to rock out to.
PHOTOS: 'Breaking Bad's' 20 Most Badass Quotes
As we saw Walter White (Bryan Cranston) -- bleeding and near death -- back in a lab one last time, he had just the song to send him off. "Baby Blue," from British rock band Badfinger, played over Walt's last minutes. The song is from the band's album Straight Up and was a Billboard top 20 hit in 1972. The song was reportedly written about Dixie Armstrong, a woman lead singer Pete Ham had dated while on tour in the U.S.
Badfinger's "Baby Blue" follows a string of memorable blue-themed musical numbers for Bad, including "Crystal Blue Persuasion," by Tommy James and the Shondells, which was used in last year's midseason finale.
PHOTOS: 'Breaking Bad's' 10 Most Mind-Blowing Episodes
"Baby Blue's" lyrics are appropriate for the end of Walt's journey, with lines such as "I guess I got what I deserved" and "I would show the special love I have for you, my baby blue." On The Talking Bad, show creator Vince Gilligan said the scene in which the song is used illustrated Walt's love for his blue product.
"I think in that last scene, he was with his Precious," Gilligan said, referencing The Lord of the Rings.
The band, which played together from 1968-83, found worldwide fame in the early 1970s with a string of hits, including "Baby Blue." Other signature songs included the Paul McCartney-penned "Come and Get It," "No Matter What," and "Day After Day."

A budget stay...for a budget price.Posted Feb 18, 2015
Pros: I liked that it did have clean outside grounds and well lit parking area for night.
Cons: Have staff focus more on making the experience for the guest feel personalized in attention to requests. Even if the answer is "no".
Location: Decent places to eat close. Bowling just a stones throw away. Grocery store and pharmacy too Overall, the location was a bit on the outskirts of town.
It was a place to lay your head down at night. No frills or extras. The hotel overall was clean and neat. There just wasn't anything about the stay that had me impressed. It was a fair price for a "fair" hotel. - Room smelled like stale cigarette smoke mixed with air freshener or carpet deodorizer. (Even though it was supposed to be NS.) - Called front desk clerk to ask about how to rent a PPV movie. They replied they did not know if PPV was even an option or how to access it. Really? - Asked for bath towel exchange from housekeeping two doors down in hall. They stated they did not have any to give. Told us to go to the front desk for them. Didn't know there was a rationing on bath towels. - Beds mattresses were way too firm. You literally had to roll over at night so that your hips wouldn't get too sore. Otherwise, the value pricing was a great deal!

Typical except for the breakfastPosted Jan 26, 2015
Everything was great as usual with my stays at Hampton Inn. The only amenity that did not meet expectation was the breakfast experience which are typically a nice extra. The space was very small, fruit squishy and eggs rubbery. Otherwise a comfy stop on my cross country journey.

Touch of Class ... something is wrong :(
Touch of Class is a mature specimen that has always been a stellar performer. I've seen obvious hosta virus on many plants at the greenhouses, though never have noted any evidence on mine and neither have I acquired any plants for many years now, though I acknowledge such can be slow to develop. The leaves have narrowed and thickened up substantially, so much so that it was difficult to snap a leaf off and the plant doesn't even resemble its former self. A friend mentioned of the same symptoms with a different variety of her's and the following season the plant was dead. I intend to carefully remove and dispose of this hosta along with a large quantity of soil and all the roots I can find.
The new flush of leaves in the middle wouldn't show frost damage. They are showing a lot of distortion as well as odd shape for this hosta. The veins appear to show some ink bleed. Maybe Steve, Ken or Paul will chime in and give their opinion soon.
I can't tell from that leaf shot if that is ink bleed or not. You'll have to get a better picture if you want to be sure.
Thickening and elongating of leaves is very unusual. I've never seen it before in HVX or any other disease that commonly affects Hosta. How long has this been happening? Is it happening over the entire plant or just part of it? Any other plants nearby that are doing anything unusual. Have you used a weed and feed on the lawn nearby? Are there any other symptoms (i.e. dead tissue, other growths, etc).
I've run into that problem before. The plant was planted too deep. This one was in pretty low light, too.
The same plant the next year after repotting it and raising it in the pot. My neighbor had added soil to the top of the pot and was smothering the crown.
June, which is growing nearby is also doing the very same thing, though I spy nice normal new foliage coming ... so probably weather/nutrient related, though I'm unsure, as the soil had been deeply dug and amended and there's no root competition from any trees. Right from their emergence this spring they've displayed such traits throughout the entire plant. There had been no chemical whatsoever used around them and nor had the soil level been altered, last year they were gorgeous specimens! We also had good decent consistent spring temperatures and moisture levels and nearby hostas have totally gone to town, as seen in the below shot of Striptease. I am relieved to hear this doesn't appear to be some type of hosta virus and might just give these two slackers a dose of fertilizer and later flow up with the results.
June growing close by and doing the same darn thing
June with nice new foliage emerging :)

CONWAY — The Conway Wampus Cats won their first 7A State Title since 1989 by defeating the Bryant Hornets Sunday 12-3 in seven innings thanks to a complete game by tournament MVP Connor McClain.
"It feels awesome and we had a great time," Conway head coach Noel Boucher said. "This is our sixth time to be here and a couple of bounces here or there, things would have been different.
"I'm just real pleased with the effort tonight."
Conway scored seven runs in the top of the second.
Sometimes the lowliest of creatures can bring out the best in humans.
Case in point: A donkey from a foreign land.
The one that caught my attention recently started out life in Iraq, but recently has become a resident of this county.
I read the Associated Press account with not just a few tears.
This was a touching story of Smoke, a donkey, who became a friend and mascot to a group of U.S. Marines living in a province in Iraq nearly three years ago.
Unfortunately, because of bureaucratic red tape, the donkey had to be left behind.
Almost everyone has heard about the Loch Ness monster, but did you know that Arkansas has a lake monster too? More than one, in fact.
Work was started in the late 1940s and by the time Lake Conway was stocked with fish and boaters were beginning to spend time on its waters, rumors of the "Lake Conway monster" began to circulate through the town.
It seems like we just got out of an election season. In fact, some campaign signs may still be found along roadways. Last fall was a particularly divisive stretch with accusations and allegations flying around like flies at a picnic. It's a time of year when some residents begin to feel renewed and rejuvenated. The batteries of the political machine are charged and the only thing left to do is to find a driver. Depending on how you look at it, candidate selection is oftentimes done way before filing periods and campaigns even begin.

09 Mar 2006 06:37 GMT
Police said Bacchu Chowdhury, 40, died on the way to hospital after the blast late on Wednesday near the shop he runs.
Chowdhury was a local leader of the Jatiya Party, the third-biggest party in the Bangladesh national parliament. Nasir Ahmed, the local police chief, said the outlawed Maoist group Janajuddha (People's War) claimed responsibility for the killing in a telephone call to a local Bengali-language newspaper. The murder follows a bomb attack in the city last month against a local leader of the main opposition Awami League party. Sheikh Yunus Ali, an elected Khulna councillor, lost his right hand and suffered splinter wounds to his back after unidentified attackers threw two bombs at him. The Maoist group has been linked to dozens of killings of politicians and journalists in the past decade in Khulna and other southwestern districts. A bomb attack on Tuesday in nearby Jhenidah wounded four people. The attack, said by police to be possibly linked to a Maoist group, was the town's third in a week.

UK: Ian Macleod Distillers buys Tamdhu distillery
Ian Macleod Distillers MD Leonard Russell with a bottle of Tamdhu single malt Scotch
Ian Macleod Distillers has significantly increased its size after acquiring the Tamdhu distillery from The Edrington Group.
The deal demonstrates Ian Macleod's ambition to capitalise on growing demand for Scotch worldwide. Speyside-based Tamdhu, with a production capacity of 4.2m litres of alcohol per year, is almost four times bigger than Ian Macleod's only current distillery, Glengoyne.
Financial details behind the deal have not been disclosed. But, Ian Macleod's MD, Leonard Russell, told just-drinks today (29 June) that the group has agreed to pay an "eight-figure sum". It has secured financing for the purchase from Royal Bank of Scotland.
Included in the deal is the Tamdhu brand, which Russell said will be relaunched as a new liquid once Ian Macleod has had the chance to inspect available stocks. Around 2m litres of maturing whisky is also included in the acquisition.
Work on Tamdhu's relaunch is expected to take around six months, Russell said. He added that Ian Macleod will seek to "extricate Tamdhu from all of the distribution deals it had" under Edrington. "I feel uncomfortable leaving it with distributors who also have the whole Edrington portfolio," he said.
Tamdhu counts the US as one of its largest markets. Ian Macleod said that it plans to push the brand in export markets, but Russell declined to be more specific at this stage. "There are a large number of markets where single malt is only at the early stages in its development," he said.
Edrington, which owns The Famous Grouse, has proven something of a feeder company to Ian Macleod, having sold it the Glengoyne distillery in 2003.
For Edrington, the Tamdhu deal represents an opportunity to focus on other single malts, The Macallan and Higland Park, as well as the Cutty Sark brand.
Earlier this year, Ian Macleod reported a 41% rise in net profits for 2010, to GBP3.1m (US$4.9m).

Why China Yanked 'The Croods' From Theaters
This story first appeared in the June 21 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine.
When news broke June 6 that The Croods had been yanked from Chinese cinemas two weeks earlier than scheduled, one China exec joked that it was Django Unchained Part II -- a reference to how Quentin Tarantino's Western abruptly was pulled after shows had begun April 11.
Now sources confirm to THR that the DreamWorks Animation blockbuster -- which had taken in $64.2 million in China when its run was cut short -- drew the ire of local animation producers who complained to regulators that the film still was being promoted more than a month into its run. The Croods opened April 20 and was expected to wrap May 21, clearing the way for homegrown animated movies to be released June 1, China's Children's Day.
STORY: Chinese Authorities Pull 'The Croods' From Cinemas Two Weeks Early
But the film performed so well that it was granted an extension to June 24. That irked protectionists, causing the Chinese film regime to kickstart what locals call "the protection of domestic production month," an informal period during which authorities keep cineplexes clear of Hollywood fare. With Croods gone, the Chinese thriller Switch nabbed more than 35 percent of theaters when it opened June 9, taking in $7.8 million (the third-highest opening-day gross for a local film).
Last July's "protection month" led to The Dark Knight Rises and The Amazing Spider-Man being pushed to late August. Ironically, just as Croods was pulled, DWA chief Jeffrey Katzenberg was praising the Chinese film industry in the city of Chengdu. Katzenberg avoided the Croods flap but reminded his audience that it had become the top original animated release in China.

Seven buck upgrade investment in light plastic makes it hard as a rock. Need a can of "small bubble foam insulation" and just drill two holes diameter of the tube of can/foam at outer edge past handles. First aim the tube through the holes and fill the handle sections completely. Then withdraw slightly and shoot downward. Keep filling until the wheel holes are stuffed. You will have a creeper that has the rigidity of a surf board. Then take metal anchors, load into the holes, Wait over night to harden. Next day ratchet drive the bolts into the metal anchors. It is solid as a rock. ($5 for the foam - small bubbles filler and $2 for metal anchors - all available from Harbor Freight.

This creeper works well if you are ever careful...and don't concentrate your weight on a small area-like sitting on a corner or a side when you get up or down, or using one hand on the creeper to help yourself up or down...concentrate your weight on less than all of the wheels and associated fasteners and the plastic mounting locations will crack and fail. That said-no one buys a creeper to be that carefull with it-not even me. It is frustrating enough when fasteners on the vehicle have to be finessed or brute forced-to then have to actually be careful of a tool?...not a chance! I am 240lbs, and this creeper lasted 3 years because I was careful when I used it-because it was the first real Fathers Day Gift from my sons(they picked it out and bought it with their own money)....but when they weren't around I conscoiusly chose not to use it for fear it would break and they would notice and feel bad...This creeper was accountant engineered to save less than a buck on the volume of HPDE it is made out of-if the mounting locations were twice as thick as they are, it would handle most of the expectations of it complaining customers-three times as thick or adequetly reinforced it would satisfy all comers. I am going to get one to replace mine tomorrow(before my sons notice mine has gone) and try the foam filling suggested in another review-and maybe some more reinforcement. With the above ceavots I would reccommend this to a friend... without them, Harbor Freight needs to re-examine the weight and habits of its USA based customers and adjust the design of this creeper.

Comments about Pittsburgh Automotive 40 in. 300 lb. Capacity Low-Profile Creeper:
For the price, I didn't think this creeper would be built so well. I read the other reviews (some negative) and I though I would take a chance on it. I'm glad I did. For the money, this creeper is hard to beat. It supports my 200 pounds with no problem. The wheels are much better quality than I expected.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great product, I'm a high school student in a small town in Montana. I have worked as a shop hand for almost two years and am now starting to do some work on cars I have learned that this creeper is great if you drill a few holes in it and spray expanding foam in it for a longer lasting and stronger creeper
