Crimson Tide Dash Bulldogs Undefeated Hopes
American Football Field Yard Lines IStockPhoto/ Thinkstock(TUSCALOOSA, Al.) -- Alabama handed Mississippi State their first loss of the season Saturday as the Crimson Tide won a tight one 25-20.
Alabama confused and stymied Dak Prescott all game as they contained the dual threat quarterback and forced him into costly mistakes.
Prescott threw three interceptions on the day, none more costly than a pick thrown late in the third quarter. The Bulldogs had marched down to the Alabama 15 yard line, trailing by 13. Prescott forced a pass to his left and Crimson Tide corner Cyrus Jones was waiting on the pass: stealing possession of the ball.
Alabama's offense was methodical. The Tide ran for 124 yards and threw for 211 yards; 88 of which were caught by star wide receiver Amari Cooper. He also added a touchdown reception. T.J. Yeldon ground out 72 yards on 16 carries and punched in a touchdown.
The loss certainly comes at a bad time for Mississippi State as the college football regular season winds down and four teams will be selected for college football's inaugural playoff. The win will boost Alabama's chances of contending once again for the grand prize of collegiate football.

TCU Moves to No. 4 in College Football Playoff Rankings
American Football Field Yard Lines IStockPhoto/ Thinkstock(NEW YORK) -- The TCU Horned Frogs moved to No. 4 in the latest Colllege Football Playoff rankings on Tuesday.
While the Mississippi State Bulldogs (9-0) still are sitting at No. 1, TCU (8-1) is followed by Florida State (9-0) and Oregon (9-1) with the Crimson Tide ranking No. 5 in the playoffs.
"For the third consecutive week, the committee looked at the overall body of work, their strength of schedule, and looked at the number of top 25 wins," committee chairman Jeff Long said.
"TCU has two top 25 wins and Baylor has one. And TCU's loss is a top-10 loss. When you put all those factors together, we still think at this time TCU has a better resume and was voted that way ahead of Baylor," he continued.
"I think that our rankings will send the message," Long added. "We as a committee are not charged with sending messages to coaches and ADs about scheduling, but I think it's likely that they will see the factors that we take into account and will take a message from that. But we're not trying to send a message about that. We've said from the beginning, strength of schedule, total body of work, complete resume, all of those are factored into this decision to get to the best four teams and rank our 25."
Mississippi State will travel to Alabama (8-1) on Saturday.

(5) Alabama Outlasts (16) LSU in Overtime
American Football Field Yard Lines IStockPhoto/ Thinkstock(BATON ROUGE, La.) -- It was another battle to remember as 5th-ranked Alabama survived against 16th-rated Louisiana State (LSU), winning 20-13 in overtime at Tiger Stadium on Saturday night. The Crimson Tide (8-1) rallied twice for the win, keeping their playoff hopes alive.
The Tigers (7-3) kept Alabama off the scoreboard for the entire first quarter, while taking a 7-0 lead when Anthony Jennings found Malachi Dupre for a 14-yard touchdown pass. LSU's defense continued to be dominant until Blake Sims connected with Amari Cooper for a game-tying 23-yard score. Alabama then took the lead on a field goal with nine seconds to play before the half.
Both offenses struggled to break through in the second half with LSU tying the game on a field goal in the third quarter, the lone score of the frame. The Tigers then went up 13-10 on Colby Delahoussaye's 39-yard field goal with 50 seconds left in regulation. With the game seemingly in hand, Delahoussaye shanked the ensuing kickoff out of bounds, giving Alabama the ball on their own 35-yard line.
Sims then led the Crimson Tide down to LSU's 10 before relying on Adam Griffith to send the game into overtime. Griffith converted on a 27-yard field goal and Sims hit DeAndrew White on a 6-yard fade route in overtime to take the lead. On LSU's possession, Jennings scrambled on fourth down but his pass into the end zone was knocked to the turf.
The win, coupled with Auburn's loss at Texas A&M, puts Alabama alone in second place in the SEC West.

(6) TCU Rolls Over (7) Kansas State
iStockphoto(FORTH WORTH, Texas) -- Trevone Boykin racked up 322 total yards of offense and four touchdowns, leading 6th-ranked TCU to a 41-20 drubbing of 7th-ranked Kansas State on Saturday. The win was important not only to the Horned Frogs playoff aspirations, but also to their hopes of a Big 12 Championship.
TCU (8-1) jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to Boykin's two yard touchdown run and 10 yard scoring pass to David Porter. The Wildcats (7-2) did not get on the board until the final minute of the first quarter when quarterback Jake Waters connected with Tyler Lockett on a 70-yard scoring strike.
The Horned Frogs added a field goal in the second quarter, taking a 10-point lead into halftime. Out of the break, Boykin added to his impressive day with a 19-yard touchdown scamper, flipping over a defender at the goal line. Boykin tallied a career high 123 rushing yards and three touchdowns, scoring again on a 23-yard run in the fourth quarter that made it 41-14, while also adding 219 yards through the air.
Waters threw for 291 yards and a pair of touchdowns for Kansas State, but was also picked off as the Wildcats mustered just 34 rushing yards. The loss snapped a five-game win streak for Kansas State and created a three-way tie atop the Big 12. Both Kansas State, TCU and 12th-ranked Baylor are all 5-1 in conference with three games to play.

Barrett Leads (14) Buckeyes Past (8) Michigan State
Kirk Irwin/Getty Images(EAST LANSING, Mich.) -- A 21-point second quarter helped the 14th-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes to a 49-37 win over Big 10 rival Michigan State on Saturday night. Quarterback J.T. Barrett accounted for five touchdowns, three passing and two rushing, as the Buckeyes upset the 8th-rated Spartans.
After Michigan State (7-2) went up 7-0 early, Barrett capped off a 4-play, 71-yard drive with a five yard touchdown run to knot the score. He would do the same early in the second quarter, rushing in from one yard out to make it a 14-14 contest. The Spartans would eventually regain the lead on Jeremy Langford's touchdown run, but Barrett connected with Michael Thomas on a 79-yard scoring pass on the following play. The Buckeyes (8-1) would get another big play before the half when Barrett found Devin Smith for a 44-yard touchdown strike, giving Ohio State a 28-21 lead at halftime.
The second half was more of the same as the Buckeyes offense rolled over one of the top defenses in the country. After a Michigan State field goal cut the deficit to 28-24, Ohio State scored 14 unanswered points to put the game out of reach. Although the Spartans were able to get a quick touchdown, cutting the lead to 42-31, the Buckeyes marched right down the field for another score just two minutes later.
With the win, Ohio State avenges a loss to the Spartans in last year's Big 10 Championship Game while also re-affirming their spot as the dominant team in the conference.

No. 12 Baylor Mauls No. 15 Oklahoma
ThinkStock(NORMAN, Ok) -- Bryce Petty and the Baylor Bears continued to showcase their dominance this season as they beat down Oklahoma Saturday.
The Bears trailed the Sooners 14-3 after the first quarter. By the end of the fourth quarter Baylor had flipped the scoreboard as they defeated Oklahoma 48-14.
Petty picked apart the Sooners secondary by tossing for 387 yards and one touchdown, completing 32 of 42 passes.
Baylor did its real damage on the ground as their running game gashed the Sooners for five rushing touchdowns. Shock Linwood and Devin Chafin each had a pair of scores and Corey Coleman added another of his own.
Coleman did his real damage through the air as he was on the receiving end of 15 of Petty's passes. He racked up 224 yards receiving and caught the team's lone passing touchdown.
A scary moment occurred in the waning moments of the fourth quarter as Sooners quarterback Trevor Knight attempted to avoid a sack. He was being pulled down by his jersey when two other Baylor defended attempted to bring him down and piled him into the ground. Knight lay motionless as medical personnel rushed to his side. He was put on a stretcher and rushed to a local hospital.

Arizona State Prepares for Notre Dame
iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) -- The Arizona State Sun Devils (7-1) will get one of their biggest challenges this season when Notre Dame (7-1) comes to town on Saturday.
"This is arguably the best football team we've seen all year and with that comes great opportunity," Arizona State coach Todd Graham said. "I don't have to give our players any motivational speeches this week; they're going to be pretty fired up to play."
Arizona State is 3-1 at home this year and is averaging 34.4 points a game.
Meanwhile, Notre Dame has given up 30 or more points for three straight games. Arizona State is hoping to take advantage of their defense.
"I think it'd be silly to say it's like any other game," Graham said. "It's the kind of games you want to coach in. It's a kind of game our players want to play in and our fans want to see. I'm looking forward to seeing a packed house and creating a memory."
Notre Dame will be relying on their offense to spark the team on the road. The Irish are 1-1 on the road this season.
"It's an aggressive scheme," Irish head coach Brian Kelly said of the Sun Devils defense. "One that is going to try and take away the run, but also try and get the ball away from you."

CB Marcus Peters Dismissed from Washington
Streeter Lecka/Getty Images(SEATTLE) -- University of Washington cornerback Marcus Peters was dismissed from the team, head coach Chris Petersen announced Thursday.
The dismissal comes after Peters got into another argument with assistant coaches during practice Wednesday. Despite being kicked off the team, Peters will still have a scholarship to complete his education.
"These are not decisions that are taken lightly," Petersen said. "We have high standards for players in our program and they are held accountable when those standards are not met. I wish Marcus the best in the completion of his education and in achieving his football goals."
This isn't the first time Peters has had problems with Washington's coaching staff. He was suspended one game earlier this season after having a sideline tantrum following a personal foul call in the team's game against Eastern Washington.
Peters was playing in his third season for Washington. This year he has 30 tackles and three interceptions. He was rated as ESPN's Mel Kiper's No. 22 prospect on his current Big Board. Freshmen Sidney Jones and Naijiel Hale will start at cornerback Saturday when the Huskies host No. 18 UCLA.

Clemson will rely on backup quarterback Cole Stoudt as freshman starter Deshaun Watson remains questionable with a broken finger.
"We keep finding ways," Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said. "This is a battle-tested group. They're tough-minded."
Clemson's defense continues to impress this season and is only giving up 18.3 points per game. Meanwhile, Wake Forest is averaging 14.8 points a game.
"We've got a lot of things to clean up. We're early in this process and if we can establish effort as a starting point then we are headed in the right direction," Wake Forest first-year coach Dave Clawson said.
Wake Forest is 0-4 in their ACC matchups this year.

Oberkrom's Last Second Field Goal Gives (7) TCU a 31-30 Win
ThinkStock(MORGANTOWN, W. Va.) -- Jaden Oberkrom's 37-yard field goal as time expired helped number seven Texas Christian University (TCU) erase a 13-point deficit and defeat 20th ranked West Virginia 31-30 on Saturday afternoon. The Horned Frogs (7-1) forced five turnovers to help in the comeback effort.
It was the first time this year that TCU played outside the state of Texas and they struggled to start the game. West Virginia (6-3) led 13-0 with less that four minutes to play in the first quarter before Deante' Gray caught a 47-yard touchdown pass from Trevone Boykin to put the Horned Frogs on the board.
Following a scoreless second quarter, TCU took the lead five minutes into the third when Boykin scampered into the end zone for a 14-13 lead. The Mountaineers were able to regain their 13-point lead though, scoring twice in 25 seconds. After Dreamius Smith's five-yard touchdown run, Terrell Chestnut picked up a fumble and ran 35-yards for another touchdown and a 27-14 West Virginia lead.
Once again, the Horned Frogs found a way to get back into the game. Trailing 30-21 early in the fourth quarter, TCU drove down the field before B.J. Catalon ran in from six yards out to get within one possession. TCU then forced a West Virginia punt with 2:07 to play and reached the Mountaineers 25-yard line to set up Oberkrom's heroics.
Despite the win, the Horned Frogs were held to a season-low 389 yards of offense one week after putting up 82 points in a win over Texas Tech.

iStockphoto(PITTSBURGH) -- It took double overtime but the 24th-ranked Duke Blue Devils kept their spot atop the Atlantic Coast Conference's Coastal Division with a 51-48 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday.
"We were resilient, continued to fight and believed down until the very end," Duke coach David Cutcliffe said.
The winning score came from backup quarterback Thomas Sirk, who rushed in from five yards out after the Duke defense held Pitt to a field goal. The Panthers (4-5) had a chance to win the game in regulation, driving inside the Duke 10-yard line. However, kicker Chris Blewitt missed a 26-yard field goal attempt as time expired, sending the game into overtime.
"I have a ton of faith in him," Pitt coach Paul Chryst said of his kicker, who missed from with 30 yards for just the second time in his career. "We're going to need him again."

Maryland Shuts Up Penn State with a 20-19 Victory
Banana Stock(UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa) -- The University of Maryland football team came into Beaver Stadium with a chip on their shoulder.
With 56 seconds on the clock, trailing 19-17, Terrapins kicker Brad Craddock lined up for a 43 yard field goal. Craddock measured his kick and snuck it inside the left upright. Teammates swarmed onto the field congratulating the leaping special teamer.
Though the real drama of the game started before the opening kickoff.
When both team's captains arrived at the center of the field for the coin toss, Penn State players extended their arms to shake hands - Maryland's players refused. A fight then broke out between several players from both teams.
Back in May, Penn State head coach James Franklin said he intended to recruit all the best players from the Maryland-DC area and said "I know there are other schools around here, but you might as well shut them down."
As if there wasn't enough emotion with being a new comer to the Big Ten as well as being a border state rival, Franklin's comments obviously resonated with the Terrapins.
After the game Terrapins head coach Randy Edsall apologized for the handshake incident.
The win pushes Maryland's record to 6-3 and they are now bowl eligible.

Michigan Athletic Director Resigns Amid Controversy
Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images(ANN ARBOR, Mi.) -- Michigan Athletic Director Dave Brandon stepped down from his position Friday, after an unrelenting wave of controversy.
Among the issues at hand are rising student ticket prices, the poor performance of the football team and the handling of quarterback Shane Morris after he suffered what was later diagnosed with a concussion. Morris was allowed to re-enter a game against Minnesota after visually showing signs of injury.
"Dave feels that it would be in the best interest of our student-athletes, the athletic department and the university community if he moved on to other challenges and allowed the important work of the department and the university to continue without daily distractions," said Mark Schlissel, the university's president.
Schlissel named former Michigan football player Jim Hackett as interim athletic director. Hackett is a member of the board of advisors for two athletic programs at Michigan.
Students and fans had begun to protest around campus demanding the removal of Brandon from office. After the incident with Morris and the response from Brandon in the days after the intensity of the protests only increased.
Brandon had been the school's athletic director since 2010. He was previously the CEO of Domino's Pizza.

Still Perfect: (2) FSU Erases 17 Point 3rd Quarter Deficit vs. Louisville
Streeter Lecka/Getty Images(LOUISVILLE, Ky.) -- No. 2 Florida State rallied from a 17 point third quarter deficit to beat No. 25 Louisville 42-31 Thursday night.
Florida State (8-0, 5-0 ACC) has now won 24 straight.
It looked early like there was no stopping the Cardinals, especially running back Michael Dyer. Dyer had two second quarter touchdown runs, the second giving Louisville a 14-0 lead. Will Gardner then threw an 11 yard touchdown to Gerald Christian to put the Birds up by 21.
But the second half was a different story. After a Louisville field goal made it 24-7, Florida State scored 21 unanswered points, 12 coming off the arm of Jameis Winston, to take the lead. The Cardinals regained the lead on Dyer's third touchdown dash of the day, but Seminoles freshman running back Dalvin Cook's 38-yard touchdown run with 3:46 remaining put FSU up for good.
"We've been there before," Winston said. "Being down is nothing when you've got heart and you persevere. Personally, we play better when we're down, honestly."
Dyer finishes the day with 134 yards rushing and those three touchdowns for Louisville (6-3, 4-3 ACC).
Winston completes 25-of-48 passes for 401 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in the loss.
Next up for the second-ranked 'Noles: a visit from Virginia next Saturday.

(13) Ohio State Holds Off Penn State in Double Overtime
Kirk Irwin/Getty Images(STATE COLLEGE, Pa.) -- After blowing a 17-point lead in the second half, 13th-ranked Ohio State survived in double overtime, beating Penn State 31-24 on the road on Saturday night.
The Buckeyes (6-1) held a 17-0 lead at halftime, thanks to a running score from Ezekiel Elliott and a touchdown pass from J.T. Barrett to Jeff Heuerman. However, the offensive production stalled in the second half. Penn State (4-3) began their rally on the defensive end when Anthony Zettel picked off a pass from Barrett and ran it back 40 yards for the score.
The Nittany Lions inched closer in the fourth quarter when quarterback Christian Hackenberg hit Saeed Blacknall for a 24-yard pass, making it a 17-14 game. Sam Ficken then tied the game with a field goal late, leaving just nine seconds on the clock. Both teams scored touchdowns in the first overtime, sending the game to another extra frame.
In the second overtime, Barrett scampered into the end zone from four-yards out to put Ohio State ahead 31-24. Penn State had a chance to tie the game, but Joey Bosa sacked Hackenberg on fourth-and-5 to seal the victory.

Ele's Center to open in Grand Rapids in May
Caroline MacGregor
January 24, 2013 | WGVU
The new Ele's Place in Grand Rapids will be housed within the Third Reformed Church on Michigan Street. The weekly support group programs are secular, but Ele's Place President and CEO Laurie Baumer says the church facilities and welcoming nature of the church's leaders are a good fit as far as a supporting environment in which to heal.
The new center's Managing Director is Grand Rapids native, Gerilyn May. In 2010, Gerilyn lost her 17-year-old son Steven to a tragic accident. Since then she has made it her mission to provide a supportive haven for children and teens to grieve here in West Michigan.
"We saw many kids grieving and we saw a lot of kids take different paths. All of them had wonderful family support systems but I really believe if an Ele's place was in West Michigan at that time I know so many families that would have taken avantage of it."
Gerilyn says hundreds of Steven's friends and classmates were devastated by the loss of their friend.
"Many of these kids ended up going to college four or five months later and ended up feeling really isolated because; some of them were with friends who walked this grief journey alone and that's why I'm really passionate about what Ele's Place does because I really want to help other kids experiencing grief so they know that they are not in it alone, isolated but that there are services out there to help them walk through their grief journey."
Figures from the US census bureau shows one in every twenty children experience the loss of a parent, which in Kent and Ottawa counties alone, equates to 11-thousand grieving children. Gerilyn believes Ele's Place will offer children and teens, like Stephen's friends and classmates, a place to work through their grief and move forward with their lives.
Families can start enrolling now for the programs which are provided at no cost and are funded through donations and philanthropic dollars. The center hopes to open May 1st and is currently assembling a community board and recruiting staff and volunteers. Training for volunteer facilitators will be held in April.

Yesterday we received our Galaxy S6 and S6 edge review units. We're still working on the final review but I wanted to share some early results from both devices. For those that are unfamiliar with these two phones, the Galaxy S6 range represents the result of Samsung's "Project Zero". In fact, the phones seem to have the internal name of Zero, which can be seen in terminal and the build properties of both devices. For Samsung, these phones represent their attempt at completely rethinking how Samsung makes phones. There is a strong emphasis on a new unibody design, which has no visible gaps or screws. Rather than the plastic that previous Samsung phones have been known for, the new design is composed of metal...

concoction. Have 'em make it with skim milk to shave off 50 calories and

Starbucks' Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate
Not a coffee drinker? You're so not alone! Sip Starbucks' holiday hot
chocolate. It's loaded up with steamed milk (opt for nonfat or 2%),
mocha sauce, toffee and vanilla syrup and a sprinkle of raw sugar and
sea salt. A small clocks in at 160 calories with minimal fat and sodium
and 20 percent of your daily recommended amount of calcium.
Caribou Coffee's Apple Blast
We can't resist the scent of apple cider, and this is one of our
faves. Sip away on a "short" and pass on the whipped cream for a drink
that's light on calories. It does pack on the sugar, so remember: it's a treat, not one of your five a day!

Grab a friend or two and order this frosty-fab shake from DQ. Vanilla
soft serve is swirled with milk, pieces of candy cane and chocolate

Klobuchar, Bills hold nothing back in fiery debate
Amy Klobuchar and Kurt Bills shared broad smiles and agreed it was hot.
But then the two U.S. Senate candidates took to a Minnesota State Fair stage Thursday in what proved to be a feisty debate during which they agreed on little.
Bills, a Republican state representative from Rosemount, said Klobuchar is a politician, but he is an average American. "This election is really not Republican vs. Democrat anymore, it is America vs. Washington, D.C."

generations of Thackerays hitting the campaign trail for their
respective parties.
Irked over Shiv Sena`s tirade
against him,
Congress MP Sanjay Nirupam on Thursday dared the Thackerays to move
around without any security cover.
In the backdrop of Shiv Sena taking
a dig at BJP over Advani-Narendra Modi `cold war`, the
Maharashtra state BJP unit chief has observed that Bal Thackeray should restrict himselve to giving suggestions.
The Bombay High Court on Thursday
dismissed a PIL seeking action against Shiv Sena and its
leadership for inciting violence at the time of release of
Shah Rukh Khan starrer "My Name is Khan".
The Bombay High Court today asked
Maharashtra government as to whether it found any evidence of
involvement of top leaders of Shiv Sena, MNS and Congress in
incidents of political vandalism in the state in recent past.
Hitting back at Shiv Sena for its
remarks against Rahul Gandhi, senior Congress leader Digvijay
Singh on Wednesday dubbed the Thackerays as "paper tigers".
Terming the recent attacks allegedly

Vatican City: Tens of thousands of Romans, tourists and pilgrims have joined Pope Francis in a solemn Palm Sunday service in St Peter`s Square.
Under cloudy skies, Francis celebrated Mass on the steps of the square as the crowd spread out before him. Faithful clutched olive tree branches, tall palm fronds or tiny braided palm leaves shaped like crosses.
Palm Sunday begins Holy Week, which culminates next Sunday on Easter. Francis used a pastoral staff made of wood carved by Italian prison inmates, who donated it to him.
The pope is determined to put people on the margins of life at the centre of the Roman Catholic church`s attention.
Francis wore red vestments, symbolising blood shed by the crucified Jesus. On Friday, he`ll preside at the Colosseum Way of the Cross procession.

We're sad to see July go, what with all the fun of Independence Day and whatnot. That must be why we're so tardy with posting our roundup of the month's shenanigans and horsefeathers and whatnot.
We got in some booze (Fee Parisienne Absinthe, Three Olives vodkas) and we swear the reviews are coming, and we also dug up what is quite possibly the greatest historical document ever created - drunk history. Check out everything from last month after the jump.
Also, for the record, this is the first time in a long time we've put up any unnecessary cheesecake in our images, and damn it feels good.

The solar industry in Latin America is starting to take off, aided by shrinking costs for photovoltaics and new government programs that facilitate business, experts said Wednesday at Solar Power International 2012
You are here
SEIA is the solar energy industry's go-to source for the latest coverage on solar power, including U.S. and international policy, research and polls, business and financing trends, and more. Our staff strives to support the media covering solar energy issues and guide our members on effective media outreach with clear statements, background materials, news and multimedia resources.
SEIA is committed to informing policymakers, the media, and the American public about the benefits of solar energy for today's communities, our economy, and our country.
Learn more from our statements and industry news below.
Clinton to Solar Companies: "You Just Can't Be Deterred"
This afternoon at Solar Power International 2012, Former President Bill Clinton offered words of encouragement and admiration for solar companies in America and around the globe.
Chain Stores Said to Lead Firms in Use of Sun Power
The aisles of a typical Walgreens drugstore are stacked with products promoting their green attributes, whether they are towels made from recycled paper or makeup brushes made from fast-growing grass. But increasingly, on the roof, a less visible green endeavor is under way, in the form of solar panels feeding power to the store.
New Research: Top 20 Commercial Solar Users in the U.S. Includes Iconic American Brands
Solar energy is being deployed on a massive scale by the most iconic brands and best-managed companies in the U.S. in order to help lower operating costs and increase profits. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and the Vote Solar Initiative (Vote Solar) today unveiled a report naming the companies using solar in their facilities in the U.S., ranked by cumulative solar energy capacity.
Media Missing The Big Picture On Solar
A solar industry group announced this week that the U.S. is on track to install as much photovoltaic solar power this year as we did in the last decade. But the media's myopic focus on Solyndra has overshadowed promising signs that the U.S. could be headed towards a clean energy revolution if we provide clear, long-term incentives, rather than walking away after one company's demise.
Contractors Seeing Work from Focus on Energy Savings
As the federal government promotes energy efficiency but faces declining budgets, contractors are expecting a greater focus on contracts that reward them based on the energy savings they provide.
Solar Bill May Get New Life in Alternate Committee
A frustrated state senator is taking his proposal to allow third parties to provide solar power to Georgia homes, businesses and other buildings to another committee on Thursday after he says the bill spent two weeks languishing on purpose.

Congrats Frizzlefry! It's exciting, but I'm sure having kids is daunting for anyone, even the most stable/financially established person. I wish you all the best.
Fuck, having kids is easy. Anybody can do it. You're screwed frizzle. Trade in the Pontiac for a Quaalude and kiss your tomorrows goodbye.
Well. You've pretty fully defined the way I'll picture you from now on.
I'm redshirt.
Don't be silly. You're far from expendable.
I'm actually writing the script for a basketball movie called Redshirt Freshman. It's coming along well.
Starring: Robin Williams and Jonathan Taylor Thomas
I think we're referencing two very different redshirts, unless I'm wrong about how much interstellar war there is in basketball. Which is also possible.
Oh, I thought you meant redcoats.
You could probably argue that I did. Residual teen angst makes philosophical redcoats out of all of you on the wrong day.
I ordered two sandwiches for lunch today.
Did you get extra ranch on them?
I don't ranch my sandwiches.
You're weird.
Mayonaise. Fatty, fatty mayonaise.
Well now you're all american.
I'm not even going to dignify that with a response. Well, except for the response responding that I will not respond.
Let's move away from the topic of condiments and go to bread - did you go white, wheat or rye? Perhaps the Jalepeno Cheddar roll?
I must admit I am a sucker for foccacia.
Dutch Crunch Motherfucker.
That's a little too bold for my taste.
I had no intention of sharing my sandwich with you so calm down.

"We can do better."
"We can do better."
We all know that Beyonce is the queen of R&B, but it looks like she's ready to be crowned the King of Pop. Yes, we said king not queen. The R&B mom recently paid homage to Michael Jackson on her Instagram page.
Beyonce's hit song "Dance for You" is heard on the airwaves across the country, but the self-proclaimed Diva is giving YOU the chance to dance for her!
Nicki Minaj may be the queen of rap, but she's also the queen of getting paid. The 'Freedom' rapstress is hosting a New Years' Eve party at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas for a reported $5 million. The fee tops Beyonce's paycheck of $4 million for her invitation-only Sin City show at the Wynn hotel.
Beyonce bought Jay-Z a $5M watch for his birthday, but don't worry, you're pack of homemade IOU coupons is still totally a neat gift idea.
New couple alert. At least we think. It looks like former Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland is hanging out with producer (and Christian Milian's ex) The-Dream. The twosome was snapped on what looked like a double date (Dec. 10) with her former groupmate Beyonce and hubby Jay-Z.
This morning's "Battle of the Headliners" was between Beyonce and Rihanna and although it started off neck and neck, Beyonce pulled away and never looked back.
Social media has really become the norm across the globe from the internet, texting, facebook, instagram and the list goes on!
Before Beyonce conquers the Super Bowl stage in February, expect to hear some brand new music from the R&B mama. The songbird's longtime collaborator The-Dream told Billboard that she plans to release a couple of new tracks before her Super Bowl XLVII halftime concert in New Orleans on Feb. 3.
Alicia Keys is on fire alright! She's on fire about the rumor that she is a home wrecker! In a recent interview, she was asked about her alleged involvement with her now hubby Swizz Beats, while he was still married to singer Mashonda, which is said to have caused their demise and fired back by saying and I quote ""… were apart for some time before we ever got together…that doesn't matter to those who take pleasure in trying to knock others down…there's no need to fight what's not true…" So there you have it

anyone knows where to buy tree peony directly from japan?
hi guys,
i'm new here, as well as new to tree peony. but my dad seems to fall in love with it. he can't speak english. so here i'm to ask on behalf of him.
does anyone know where to buy tree peony directly from japan? such as a japanese company web address, email? anything?
i googled it for hours while seems most of companies are either american or european. since my dad stay in mainland china, we think but them directly from Japan are more econ
any clue will be highly appreciated.
I am not aware of the import restrictions or need for an import license in China to import from Japan but most import licenses come with all kinds of problems. Since your dad lives in China there are several growers in China that have Japanese origin tree peonies in their stock so you might want to check the Chinese vendors. Most of the ones that I have worked with sell wholesale so I would rather not advise on which ones are best.
If you look through the messages here there was a person that grew cuttings in China that might be able to supply your dad. I will attempt to locate his name but it will have to be in a couple of days. Perhaps your dad would like someone to discuss tree peonies with and this connection could provide that discussion.

Almost every cookbook has a brisket recipe, but brisket doesnat have a cookbookauntil now. With 30 recipes (some from notable chefs), as well as tips, quotes, stories, cartoons, sidebars, and lots of photos and illustrations, The Brisket Book is a witty and entertaining homage to a Sunday-supper staple.
"A fun little book, very entertaining with terrific recipes from friends, family and chefs. It is indeed as intended, 'A Love Story with Recipes.'" --Sara Moulton, Good Morning America
"There's no longer a need for frantically searching for the best brisket recipes. Stephanie Pierson, author, food writer and brisket lover, has written a cookbook filled with only the best brisket recipes, accompanied by illustrations, poems, cartoons and musings. The Brisket Book has a recipe for everyone, and it'll turn you into the star of any potluck." --The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles
"The Brisket Book is subtitled "a love story with recipes." It literally had me laughing out loud with its cartoons, jokes, stories and more. If you are Jewish, Irish, or even a Texan, brisket is your soul food. The book pays homage with recipes, wine pairings, poems, and everything you need to know to make a version that will make you fall in love." --Cooking with Amy
"Packed with history, wit, and expert opinions (including a list of 50 things about brisket that people disagree on), this book presents one of the world's great comfort foods in all its lovable, chameleonlike glory, with recipes for corned beef, smoked brisket, Korean brisket soup, brisket burgers, and myriad Jewish braises, including Nach Waxman's supposedly "most-Googled brisket recipe" of all, smothered in onions and virtually no liquid. It is undoubtedly, as the subtitle claims, "A Love Story with Recipes." --The Philadelphia Inquirer
"This book will put you passionately over the moon for a meat cut that is often taken for granted...full of colorful, lively and sometimes surprising images; the pages are a joy to leaf through for their energetic mix of images, photos and text." --Chicago Tribune
Food writer, cookbook author, and brisket zealot Stephanie Pierson contends, "Some foods will improve your meal, your mood, your day, your buttered noodles. Brisket will improve your life."
Brisket is so easy to warm up to, no wonder everyone loves it. Families pass brisket recipes down like heirlooms. Chat rooms are full of passionate foodies giving passionate opinions about their briskets--and each one claims to have the best brisket recipe ever! When Angel Stadium of Anaheim introduced a BBQ brisket sandwich, it promptly won a national contest for best ballpark cuisine. This lively book offers everything from brisket cooking tips to chef interviews to butcher wisdom. Color photographs, illustrations, and graphics ensure that brisket has never looked better. The recipes include something for everyone: Beef Brisket with Fresh Tangy Peaches, Scandinavian Aquavit Brisket, Sweet-and-Sour Brisket, Barbecued Brisket Sandwiches with Firecracker Sauce, a Seitan Brisket (even people who don't like meat love brisket), and a 100% Foolproof Bride's Brisket.
If brisket does indeed improve your life, then The Brisket Book promises to be the ultimate life-affirming resource for anyone who has savored--or should savor--this succulent comfort food.
Stephanie Pierson is an author and a journalist who writes about food, design, and lifestyle issues. She is a regular contributor to Atlantic.com's food section. Her work has been published in the New York Times, Saveur, Metropolitan Home, and Eating Well. She is the author of a dozen books, including Vegetables Rock!, and has collaborated with chefs on five cookbooks. She lives in New York, New York, and is thinking of moving to Kansas City because of the barbecue possibilities.

Well, this may well be a quick recap due to the fact this was what I like to contact a 'resting' episode of the Actual Housewives of Atlanta. We often get a painfully dull episode or two ahead of all holy hell breaks free. So the next couple of weeks are certain to be very good! We acquired that likely for us.
First, the important thing about this style of music is mood. Blues is a depressing kind of music, it's about decline, dying, poverty, individuals kind of items. You may well want to check out up on the history of the genre if this specific factor interests you and of system if you want to publish your own lyrics, then you should include individuals elements as nicely. But in any case, to accommodate this darkness, blues singing is generally carried out in a reduced register. That's why as a first step to your singing success, you need to concentrate on your reduced register! Try to sing individuals vocal scales as low as possible and you'll see that you turn into much more flexible in the deep conclude. It's important for blues!
Professional singers can even discover to sing on the internet as there are lessons suited for them as nicely. If you want to discover to sing on the internet then you have produced a truly very good decision. And it is a single you will be in a position to construct confidence from alongside with a talent that will add pleasure to your daily life as nicely as to the life of other folks. This determination to discover to sing on the internet is a determination that a great deal of people decide not to just take. These are the people you'll generally see on singing demonstrates creating an absolute idiot of themselves. You do not want to be a single of individuals do you?
Why can't that same need transcend chocolate and be utilised in bettering a single's self? Can we obtain the same gratification from likely to the fitness center or having that business system that will go you to the next stage, painting that scene that retains popping up in your head? Producing that e-book, singing lessons with Parke O'Dwyer, martial arts, looking through, eating healthy, obtaining that creation up and operating? Brainstorming team? Discovering a mentor?
If you don't know where to acquire these valuable guides, the best spot to commence is the internet. The voice lessons signify tools that can aid you discover how to sing and will offer you you and idea about the suitable and organic techniques.
