Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 11 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Holly13 Beautiful chairs for amazing value! I just purchased a home and have no furniture. So I am on a budget but still want a beautiful space. This chair was on sale so I was able to buy 2 and they blew me away! They are GORGEOUS. They look so luxurious and expensive, but I got them so cheap! They will look great as anchors to my table. I am so happy with the chairs and recommend them. Assembly was super easy and they arrived less than a week after I ordered them. I can't wait to have my first dinner at the table in my new chairs :) March 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by houstonKP Great buy We bought 2 of these chairs to go with our breakfast table and we love them! Even with a dog and visitors (that include children), we have had no issues with keeping them clean. They are comfortable, beautiful, sturdy and such a great value for the cost, especially compared to the other options at other stores. January 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by T Perfect We bought this chair for the it's high back and firmness to put in our guest room for a reading chair, perfect. When you have company that have bad backs this is so much better then trying to get up out of a low seating comfy chair. My husband found it to be very easy to put together. There are no cons at this time since we really have not used it much at all, but it looks wonderful sitting in the corner of my guest room! April 1, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gweniee Excellent buy for the money! The chair has beautiful lines and a comfortable fit. Great around the dining room table. You can't go wrong with the neutral color and style. September 17, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Amy624 Great Value My husband and I bought two of these chairs to pair with our Verona dining table. We love the look simple look of this wing-back dining chair. The chairs are classic and neutral, but can be paired with just about anything. One of our chairs had damaged legs which, at the time, couldn't be replaced due to the chair being out of stock. We were given the option of returning for a refund or keeping them as is for a discount. After doing LOTS of research on similar chairs we decided we couldn't part with what we have. It's hardly noticeable to anyone but us and the value and aesthetic is hard to beat! That's the biggest reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5. February 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by AmberLeigh Comfortable Chic It was easy to put together, lovely to look at, nice to sit in. The fabric is a little rough if you aren't wearing a shirt (my husband complains about this) and the light color makes me nervous. It's a great chair but I'm hoping it lasts a while with no stains since it doesn't have a slip cover. Overall, great purchase and very pleased! August 1, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jules Love these chairs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would love if World Market had a selection of slipcovers available for these chairs. I've looked into having them made and the slipcovers are going to cost more then the chairs...... October 10, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Furniture crazed Great Value Just brought home 2 of these for my dining room host / hostess chairs. They look fabulous. Got them on sale for [$] and worth every penny. Some minor assembly required, but I have to say, they are made way better than I expected for that price. Great job World Market!! September 24, 2011

Sophomore Kristine Mial posted 12 points and nine rebounds against Tulsa Wednesday.
March 7, 2012
(11) East Carolina 59, (6) Tulsa 49 | Postgame Notes | Postgame Quotes
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Celeste Stewart led three Pirate players in double figures with 18 points as 11th-seeded East Carolina knocked off No. 6 seed Tulsa, 59-49, in the opening game of the 2012 Conference USA Women's Basketball Championship Wednesday at the University of Memphis' Elma Roane Fieldhouse.
"Obviously, I thought I just needed to step up," Stewart said. "This is the best time to do it. I knew I had to step up for my team, and I recognized that [the Golden Hurricane] were going to back off of me, so I was like I've got to take that chance and I've got to take that shot for my team."
The Pirates entered the championship tournament with a head of steam, having won five of their last six regular-season games and three straight. The hot streak continued into the postseason as East Carolina became the first No. 11 seed to win in the first round since March 6, 2003, when Louisville defeated Saint Louis, 86-59, at The Pyramid in Memphis, Tenn.
"I'm just incredibly proud of this basketball team," head coach Heather Macy said. "They've been so resilient throughout the year and just came up big at the right time. Celeste Stewart scored 18 points for us and handled the basketball incredibly well. (She) got us into our stuff and did the job defensively."
With the win, the Pirates improve to 12-18 on the year and advance to take on No. 3 seed Tulane in the quarterfinals on Thursday. Tipoff for that game is slated for 11 a.m. Tulsa, meanwhile, concludes the 2011-12 campaign at 13-15.
East Carolina hit 40.9 percent of its field goals (18-of-44) and was 17-of-21 from the free throw line. The Pirate' defense held the Golden Hurricane to a .365 clip from the field (19-of-52) and ECU out-rebounded Tulsa 36-29.
Chareya Smith posted her eighth-straight double-digit scoring effort with 13 points and Kristine Mial added 12 to go with a game-high nine rebounds. Stewart paced the squad with five assists while Smith had two steals and a pair of blocks to lead the East Carolina effort.
Smith scored the game's first points with a jumper 35 seconds into the contest and East Carolina never trailed at any point. The advantage swelled to as many as 13 in the first half at 33-20 with 4:23 to go before the break. Tulsa outscored the Pirates 6-2 the rest of the stanza and a Chanice Scott 3-pointer trimmed ECU's lead to 35-26 at halftime.
The Pirates hit four of their first eight shots in the second half to go up by 18 at 46-28 with 14:10 to play, but would go 0-for-14 the rest of the way. Tulsa cut the deficit to seven twice late in the game, but East Carolina wound up converting 13-of-14 free throw opportunities, including an 8-for-8 performance by Stewart over the final 7:47 to come away with the win.
Taleya Mayberry led Tulsa with 15 points and four steals, and shared team-high assist honors with Scott at two apiece. Taylor Hooker joined Mayberry in double digits with 12 points while Kadan Brady paced the Golden Hurricane with five rebounds.

Terry heads the Mobile Library Services department and enjoys each and every one of the communities the bookmobile serves.
This is an official blog for the Marin County Free Library.
"I am a storyteller at heart. So each project begins with the question, 'Is this story worth telling? Is the manuscript an interesting read? Is it surprising and challenging? Will I, in the process of making pictures, learn something new?'
"When these questions are answered, I then open up to letting the text speak to me. My work is text inspired. Therefore the style in which a story is written (its language) will offer clues and give a direction. The drawings always begin in the same way. Thumbnail sketches are followed by large, more detailed developmental drawings. When I am working for children, I aim for clarity with a direct correlation between text and art, than my drawings for older audiences. I think there is no separation between the way an artist works for children and the way the artist sees the world. It is not work taken down or up a step. Imagination influences the way you see the world… I illustrate stories, not as I imagine a child sees them, but how I see them. My wish is that all ages will be able to find something, in some way, that touches them.
"I have illustrated over a hundred children's books. The most favorite is always the work in progress on the drawing board, because my strongest feelings about a particular book are tied to the experience of creating it. I love the act of making marks on paper, and seeing those marks develop into a picture. My intent and hope is to lead the viewer into a world that only exists because of that picture. Many of these speak to my culture, while other works are based on my experience of being Black in America." Jerry Pinkney

Here is an annual post which, I humbly submit, bears some repetition.
Today is the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, disciple of the Lord.
Often saints are identified as martyrs or virgins or widows. She was a "disciple of the Lord", which reminds everyone that, now matter what we have been up to during our lives, it is not in the end impossible to become a saint.
Mary is mentioned in the Dies Irae. Mary is patroness of catechists, since a Mary ran to tell the apostles about the Risen Lord.
But there is a lot of confusion about who she was.
The 3rd c. writer Hippolytus in his Commentary on Song of Songs identifies Mary Magdalene with both Mary of Bethany the sister of Martha and Lazarus (Luke 10:38-42; John 1:10) and also the woman who anointed Jesus' feet (Luke 7:36-50)
Mary Magdalene and/or Mary of Bethany are often identified as sinners. Pope Gregory I "the Great" called her a peccatrix, "sinner". Eventually she came to be called meretrix, "prostitute".
There is no way to arrive definitively at the identity of the figure of Mary Magdelene. It is possible that Mary Magdalene was none of these women. The Catholic Church has no position about this. Commonly, however, Catholics sometimes identify all three women as the same Mary.
There is also another version, namely that Mary Magdalene was the woman Jesus saved from stoning after being caught in adultery. Scholars believe Mary Magdalene, Mary of Bethany, the woman Jesus rescued, and the woman who anointed His feet are all different women.
We know from Scripture that Mary Magdalene, Salome and Mary the mother of James came to Jesus' tomb to anoint the body (Matthew 28:1; Mark 16:2). Mary Magdalene, the first witness of the empty tomb, went to tell Apostles (John 20:1-2). So, she is called "the apostle to the apostles".
At first Mary did not recognize Jesus, but when He said her name, she saw who He was and tried to cling to him. Christ forbade her to touch Him (Noli me tangere John 20:17) saying "I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.'"
What became of Mary Magdalene?
We don't know for sure. Here is what the old Catholic Encyclopedia says, for what it is worth:
The Greek Church maintains that the saint retired to Ephesus with the Blessed Virgin and there died, that her relics were transferred to Constantinople in 886 and are there preserved. Gregory of Tours (De miraculis, I, xxx) supports the statement that she went to Ephesus. However, according to a French tradition (see SAINT LAZARUS OF BETHANY), Mary, Lazarus, and some companions came to Marseilles and converted the whole of Provence. Magdalen is said to have retired to a hill, La Sainte-Baume, near by, where she gave herself up to a life of penance for thirty years. When the time of her death arrived she was carried by angels to Aix and into the oratory of St. Maximinus, where she received the viaticum; her body was then laid in an oratory constructed by St. Maximinus at Villa Lata, afterwards called St. Maximin. History is silent about these relics till 745, when according to the chronicler Sigebert, they were removed to Vezelay through fear of the Saracens. No record is preserved of their return, but in 1279, when Charles II, King of Naples, erected a convent at La Sainte-Baume for the Dominicans, the shrine was found intact, with an inscription stating why they were hidden. In 1600 the relics were placed in a sarcophagus sent by Clement VIII, the head being placed in a separate vessel. In 1814 the church of La Sainte-Baume, wrecked during the Revolution, was restored, and in 1822 the grotto was consecrated afresh. The head of the saint now lies there, where it has lain so long, and where it has been the centre of so many pilgrimages.
And let us not forget the cookies called Madeleines of which Marcel Proust wrote so elegantly.
In Patricia Bunning Stevens' work Rare Bits: Unusual Origins of Popular Recipes , [Ohio University Press:Athens] 1998 (p. 178) we read:
"In culinary lore, Madeleines are always associated with Marcel Proust, whose autobiographical novel, Remembrance of Things Past, begins as his mother serves him tea and "those short, plump little cakes called petits Madeleines, which look as though they had been molded in the fluted scallop of a pilgrim's shell." The narrator dips a corner of a little cake into the tea and then is overwhelmed by memories; he realizes that the Madeleines bore "in the tiny and almost impalpable drop of their essence, the vast structure of recollection." …But Madeleines had existed long before Proust's boyhood. Numerous stories, none very convincing, attribute their invention to a host of different pastry cooks, each of whom supposedly named them for some particular young woman. Only three things are known for sure. One is that Madeleine is a French form of Magdalen (Mary Magdalen, a disciple of Jesus, is mentioned in all four gospels). Another is that Madeleines are always associated with the little French town of Commercy, whose bakers were said to have once, long ago, paid a "very large sum" for the recipe and sold the little cakes packed in oval boxes as a specialty in the area. Finally, it is known that nuns in eighteenth-century France frequently supported themselves and their schools by making and selling a particular sweet…Commercy once had a convent dedicated to St. Mary Magdalen, and the nuns, probably when all the convents and monasteries of France were abolished during the French Revolution, sold their recipe to the bakers for an amount that grew larger with each telling."
Here are links for recipes: NB: This requires a special mold:
1 stick (1/4 lb.) unsalted butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 lemon
2/3 cup milk
2 cups all purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
butter (at room temperature) for the madeleine pan molds
Butter 2 madeleine molds (molds of 12) and put into the refrigerator. Butter them again in 15 minutes, making sure the butter coats the indentations on the top. Chill molds until ready to use.
Grate the zest from 1/2 of the lemon and reserve. Squeeze the lemon and reserve the juice. Whisk the flour and baking powder together. Melt the butter and set aside. Whisk the eggs, sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice together for about 30 seconds. Don't overmix.
Thin the mixture with 1/2 cup of the milk. Add the flour all at once and, using a whisk, blend just long enough to eliminate lumps. Gently stir in the rest of the milk and the melted butter.
Refrigerate the batter for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°. Spoon the batter into the shell-shaped molds and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, turning the pans halfway through the cooking time so they bake evenly. Immediately remove the cookies from the molds and allow to cool on racks. Sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving (not when hot!).
It would be remiss not to include something tasty for the mouth of the soul as well, which is always ready to bite into something chewy and substantive from the Fathers.
Here, for patristibloggers, is a piece from St. Augustine's Tractate on the Gospel on John 131. There are nice bits here as, for example, recounting that Mary mistook the Risen Lord for a gardener and Augustine makes Him into the Gardener of her soul!
3. "Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; to my God, and your God." There are points in these words which we must examine with brevity indeed, but with somewhat more than ordinary attention. for Jesus was giving a lesson in faith to the woman, who had recognized Him as her Master, and called Him so in her reply; and this gardener was sowing in her heart, as in His own garden, the grain of mustard seed.
What then is meant by "Touch me not"? and just as if the reason of such a prohibition would be sought, He added, "for I am not yet ascended to my Father." What does this mean? if, while standing on earth, He is not to be touched, how could He be touched by men when sitting in heaven? for certainly, before He ascended, He presented Himself to the touch of the disciples, when He said, as testified by the evangelist Luke, "Handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have;" or when He said to Thomas the disciple, "Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and put forth thy hand, and thrust it into my side." and who could be so absurd as to affirm that He was willing indeed to be touched by the disciples before He ascended to the Father, but refused it in the case of women till after His ascension?
But no one, even had any the will, was to be allowed to run into such folly, for we read that women also, after His resurrection and before His ascension to the Father, touched Jesus, among whom was Mary Magdalene herself; for it is related by Matthew that Jesus met them, and said, "All hail. And they approached, and held Him by the feet, and worshiped Him." This was passed over by John, but declared as the truth by Matthew.
It remains, therefore, that some sacred mystery must lie concealed in these words; and whether we discover it or utterly fail to do so, yet we ought to be in no doubt as to its actual existence. Accordingly, either the words, "Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my Father," had this meaning, that by this woman the Church of the Gentiles was symbolized, which did not believe on Christ till He had actually ascended to the Father, or that in this way Christ wished Himself to be believed on; in other words, to be touched spiritually, that He and the Father are one. for He has in a manner ascended to the Father, to the inward perception of him who has made such progress in the knowledge of Christ that he acknowledges Him as equal with the Father: in any other way He is not rightly touched, that is to say, in any other way He is not rightly believed on. But Mary might have still so believed as to account Him unequal with the Father, and this certainly is forbidden her by the words, "Touch me not;" that is, Believe not thus on me according to thy present notions; let not your thoughts stretch outwards to what I have been made in thy behalf, without passing beyond to that whereby thou hast thyself been made. for how could it be otherwise than carnally that she still believed on Him whom she was weeping over as a man? "For I am not yet ascended," He says, "to my Father:" there shalt thou touch me, when thou believest me to be God, in no wise unequal with the Father. "But go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father." He saith not, Our Father: in one sense, therefore, is He mine, in another sense, yours; by nature mine, by grace yours. "and my God, and your God." Nor did He say here, Our God: here, therefore, also is He in one sense mine, in another sense yours: my God; under whom I also am as man; your God, between whom and you I am mediator.
Happy Feast of St. Mary Magdalen, disciple of the Lord.

Now why should you care?
Some locals ante up ($500 per person) and make the rather large effort to drive up the snowy mountain, find a parking space (hah!) and eat this exclusive menu. But, not so many.
This past February, Faustina's Executive Chef Billy Sotelo was our Utahn in the kitchen - you may remember reading about it here.
And now, for the first time, Chef Sotelo is re-creating that menu in his own restaurant kitchen.
On Saturday March 26 from 4:30 - 10 pm. you'll be able to eat like the stars for just $50 per person, plus a $20 wine menu to match.
Faustina will be serving this menu (see below) only on this one evening. Each guest will receive a "rating card" with menu items outlined so they can take over my job for the evening and "rate" the quality of the dishes from 1 to 5. One card will be randomly drawn after the event for a $50 gift card to Faustina. Fun! Make reservations now: 801-746-4441 or www.faustinaslc.com..

Using only the highest quality goose down in all of our products, The North Face® tests each lot of down at three stages of production for loftiness, moisture resistance and ability to regain loft after compression.
The fill power of goose down is an indicator of two important features: warmth-to-weight ratio and compressibility, both critical to retain warmth and furnish comfort. True fill power is measured by placing one ounce of goose down in a graduated cylinder and measuring the volume the down occupies in cubic inches. The North Face® products are insulated with exclusive, high-fill power goose down ranging from 550 to 900 fill, which represents the highest quality down commercially available.

There are several changes one notices after the age of forty. A new body shape appears in the mirror ( my personal view is that the body lacks protective estrogen and the womb feels abandoned so fat surrounds the space to protect and comfort it) you might notice a few hairs confused with their place to grow and have swings in appetite that are unexplainable. I also noticed a few changes in the sheets— no, not while with a partner but when I am trying to get a good night's rest. Not even my sleep number bed seems to be able to allow me a solid 6 hours of sound, soulful renewal sleep. Night sweats started for me in my late thirties, so I can't say that I am not used to those ( a nice fan overhead has helped solve that problem ) but even my evening yoga poses don't seem to do the trick. Unfortunately, everyone suffers from my crabiness myself included. The hormonal changes that occur with this sleepless in Chicago phenomenon aides the waistline crisis and unpredictable Swedish fish cravings. Leptin and Gherlin change when restful sleep isn't accomplished and help the body to burn anything but fat and support appetite enhancement.
For me, I am taking a catnap when possible to get in those extra needed rejuvenating minutes. I'll keep you posted as I find more answers. Heading to my doctor in September.

4 Favorite Family Getaways
Great Midwest vacations for all ages [1]
The kids need a pool, preferably with a really cool water slide or two. The grown-ups would like at least one non-hot-dog meal, and the outdoorsy types won't be happy unless they get in a hike.
Whether it's you and a child or two, or the whole extended clan, the classic summer vacation gets complex in a hurry. So we did the legwork for you. On the following slides you'll find information on four of our favorite family destinations: Brainerd area, Minnesota; Branson area, Missouri; Minocqua area, Wisconsin; and Traverse bays area, Michigan.
What's your favorite Midwest spot for a family vacation? Tell us about it in the Comments section below!
Playing in and out of the water in Brainerd, Minnesota [4]
Central Minnesota's resort country is a magnet for families looking to create summertime legends, with 465-plus lakes, 120 lodging choices and 25 golf courses sprawled around Brainerd, 130 miles northwest of the Twin Cities.
Everywhere you turn here, a sparkling lake twinkles back at you. Whether you stay on the shore of 7-mile-wide Gull Lake or teeny-tiny Lost Lake, you'll find plenty of ways to get out and get wet. For those craving more than sun and sand, the area offers lots of dry-land alternatives, including award-winning golf courses and the 100-mile Paul Bunyan Trail for cycling.
The next three slides have information on what to do, where to eat and where to stay in the Brainerd area.
Brainerd: what to do [8]
Paul Bunyan Land Old-fashioned carnival rides thrill the younger set, and a lumberjack greets kids at the entrance. Paul Bunyan Land [9]
Brainerd Golf Trail A partnership between 11 area courses, the trail amounts to 180 holes, featuring a blend of forests and lakes for spectacular scenery. Brainerd Golf Trail [10]

Madden's on Gull Lake The resort has all kinds of kid-pleasing activities, including water-skiing lessons, plus a spa and golf course. Madden's on Gull Lake [29]
Neon and nature in Branson, Missouri [32]
Neon marquees light the night sky above Branson, Missouri, where more than 50 theaters stage 100 different splashy, family-friendly shows. If that's not enough entertainment, the Ozarks-style Silver Dollar City theme park mixes history and crafts with cool rides. Plus, visitors are drawn to the area's plentiful shops, including outlet malls and the new upscale, lakeside Branson Landing.
But there's another side to this Ozark Mountain destination (35 miles south of Springfield): the area's natural attractions. Surrounding Branson, man-made Table Rock is so vast that you can boat all day without seeing all of it. Coves offer fishers opportunities for undisturbed casting. Parks are so quiet that you might not guess that all Branson's attractions and commotion are minutes away.
The next three slides have information on what to do, where to eat and where to stay in the Branson area.
Branson: what to do [36]
Silver Dollar City Take your pick of a colorful mix of attractions: amusement-park rides, traditional hill-country crafts or a big plate of Ozark succotash. Silver Dollar City [37]
Branson Landing Shops, food and a show that features a spectacle of spurting fountains, fire, lights and music share the waterfront in Branson. Branson Landing [38]

Thousand Hills Resort A choice of condos or cabins, as well as a top-rated 18-hole golf course, make this a good option in town. (877) 262-0430; Thousand Hills Resort [54]
Quintessential resort feel in Minocqua area, Wisconsin [57]
Popcorn-and fudge-scented air hums with the buzz of speedboats and the putter of pontoons in Minocqua and the surrounding towns of Woodruff, Arbor Vitae, Boulder Junction and Hazelhurst, the woodsy heart of northern Wisconsin vacationland (165 miles northwest of Green Bay).
There are lots of reasons for the area's reputation as an ideal lake getaway -- at least 4,200 of them. That's the number of lakes (3,200) in Vilas and Oneida counties, plus the number of rooms, condos and cabins (1,000) that line their pine-shaded shores. We didn't even count the supper clubs, cafes, shops, shows and other attractions.
But you can still find natural lakes so quiet that the plunk of a lure echoes from shore to shore. Towns like Minocqua are the quintessential resort-area destination -- the one most people dream of when they're stuck in a cubicle on a sunny day.
The next three slides have information on what to do, where to eat and where to stay in the Minocqua area.
Minocqua: what to do [61]

The pleasures of beach life in Michigan [86]
A century ago, the first steamships full of vacationers docked along the northwest corner of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. The lands along Grand and Little Traverse bays have been entertaining summer visitors ever since.
The region has accumulated a stellar selection of resorts, golf courses, chef-owned restaurants, shopping districts, artists' enclaves and other diversions. But the biggest draw remains the pure pleasures of beach life and the water. Miles of sand rim the blue water of Lake Michigan. The southern anchor is Traverse City, at the foot of Grand Traverse Bay. The beaches run all the way to Petoskey, 60 miles north on Little Traverse Bay.
The next three slides have information on what to do, where to eat and where to stay in the Traverse bays area.

5601 Main Street
A portrait is meant to capture the physical presence and appearance of its subject. Yet at the same time, innumerable choices are made by the sitter and the artist to enhance authority, to inspire supporters, and to intimidate the opposition. Complementing the grand portraits in the exhibition Portrait of Spain: Masterpieces from the Prado, this guided tour explores portraits in the MFAH collections to consider how a sitter's title, pose, setting, clothing, and accessories can affect a viewer.

From Michigan to Ho Chi Minh
May 13, 2013 | by Rachel Reed
After her first year at U-M, Ann Duong decided to venture outside of the classroom—way out. The Zeeland, Michigan native wanted to pursue her academic interests in economics and health and development in another part of the world. And so she sought an internship in Vietnam—a place to which she was connected through family, but which she desired to explore in her own way.

Harvard Ends Volleyball Win Streak With Another Marathon Victory
The Princeton men's volleyball team saw its win streak end at six Saturday afternoon, as the Harvard Crimson completed a regular season sweep of the Tigers with its second straight 3-2 win.
It was the second time this season and fourth time in the last five meetings that a Princeton-Harvard match has gone the distance, and the Crimson has pulled out each fifth set. With the final set even at 12-12, Harvard took the final three points, including the winner on a service ace by Nick Bendell.
While the conclusion was tense, all four sets were fairly one-sided. Both teams split 25-20 sets to open the match, and then followed with a split of 25-18 sets. The final set stayed within two points either way until Bendell's winning serve caught the inside of the back line.
Senior Pat Schwagler and junior Cody Kessel both had 16 kills for Princeton, while sophomore Devin Stearns had 10 kills. Freshman setter Chris Kennedy recorded 44 assists, while junior Tony Ensbury led the defensive effort with 17 digs. Freshman Junior Oboh had a career-best nine blocks, while junior middle Will Siroky had six kills and four blocks.
The loss keeps the top of the EIVA standings bunched up. Penn State, at 6-1 in EIVA play, leads by percentage points, while Harvard (7-2 EIVA) holds a half-game lead over Princeton (6-2).
Princeton returns to league play next weekend when it heads to Rutgers-Newark for a 1 pm showdown next Saturday.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by K from Massachussettes Awesome Slippers I tried to order them from you and was told that they on backorder. Your staff bent over backwards to tell me when they were back in stock. I'd been looking for slippers like these for over a year. When I take of my shoes and wear them they are like a vacation for my feet. I'll reorder them in a heartbeat! April 14, 2016

Then we decided to start cloth diapering our at the time, 1 1/2 year old son as well. We had this wooden shelf my parents had given us that they no longer used and we were using it for diapering items so this worked great for the cloth. We have it next to the changing table and it was easily accessible. We started out our older son in prefolds and covers mainly and some AIO's and pockets. There is also a lot of left over sposies!Traveling with cloth was quite different than disposables. They do take up more room so you can't just throw a huge pile in. You have to pack what you need with a little extra for the just in case moments. I have a JJ Cole Mode bag and I love it! It is skinny and deep. Now, I will say this...my diaper bag does not look this organized every time! This was probably for a half a day outing so I didn't need to many diapers. I lined them all up on the bottom of the bag which allowed me to keep extra clothes and burp rags on top of them. In the side pockets I kept wipes, creams and baggies. I was also nursing so I didn't need any bottles, formula containers, etc. so that save space as well. I know find myself going out of the house with at least 2 bags each time. One with diapering supplies, bottles and formula and baby food and a second with extra clothes.
Then my stash got attacked by other diapers and it grew and grew and grew and well you get the picture...I now have so many diapers its crazy, but awesome! Please keep in mind I am still cloth diapering two children. Also, did not contain all my diapers at the time and I now have probably at least 10-15 more than when this was taken. Above my washing machine I have a ribbon hanging up with clothes pins...wonderful for rainy days and winter months.
So now you are probably wondering what in the world I do with all my diapers! Well, my 1 month old (from the beginning of the post) I mentioned is now 8 months old and shares a room with his big brother. So that means I have to share the changing table space. Here is the changing table as we have it set up. We no longer use the tall skinny shelf for diapers, it is full of books. I have 3 baskets on the top shelf and two bigger baskets on the bottom. The basket on the top shelf on the right contains our night time diapers for both boys.
The middle basket on the top shelf contains diapers I use every day. We have quite the variety of diapers and I love them!
The basket on the top shelf left side contains all my BG 3.0's and 4.0's. These are the diapers that fit both of the boys with out any adjusting...so daddy friendly! Most of the diapers in the other basket on this shelf will fit both boys as well but this one is guaranteed to fit. This makes the hubs happy.
On the bottoms shelf I have a basket with a variety of items. This is mostly filled with my baby prefolds and medium, large and size 2 duo covers, fitteds and a couple of out grown diapers. Every now and again ( like today) I get in a mode where I just want to do the prefolds/fitted. They were my original diapering system and I can't give up on them!
The large basket on the bottom shelf holds all of my infant prefolds, small covers, size 1 duo covers, and all the small diapers that baby out grew. :( They are so little and when I look at them it makes me want another right now! lol I also keep all my extra inserts in this basket. This comes in handy for when I need to improvise and stuff extra inserts into a diaper for nap time or bed time.
This is how I store all my diapers. Its what works best for me and every now and again I change it up because of more diapers or I find a diaper I like better than another or some simply get out grown. I have seen some other great diaper storage solutions where people use the three tiered shelf with the plastic bins of bight colors for their diapers and they are all organized by size, style, inserts, prefolds etc. Pretty neat! People have also used wooden shelves with a bunch of cubes in them for storing diapers.
What do you use to store your diapers? Share below and feel free to post a picture on our FB page wall! I love to see all the different options out there.

It's very similar to my set up, except you have way more diapers. I have 2 large bins on the top shelf that hold diapers and then 3 smaller bins on the bottom shelf that hold covers, inserts, and liners. I have a bedside table (from ikea) next to the changing table that where I keep all my cloth wipes and accessories. It's working for me!

I use one of those hanging closet organizers (they are for like sweaters or something) We got one that can fold in half so it has two rows of three shelves. I put the baby's diapers on one side and the toddler's on the other. I keep my pocket/AIOs on the bottom, fitteds/covers/doublers/prefolds on the middle, and accessories(snappi), wipes, disposables for grandpa, underwear and training pants for the older one, etc on the top. It's hanging from a shelf right next to our changing table. It works well for us.

PHILADELPHIA - Following a record-setting home opener, the University of Pennsylvania track and field teams will head South again. The Quakers will compete at N.C. State's annual Raleigh Relays on Friday and Saturday.
Events will begin at 8:45 a.m. on Friday with the steeplechase. The first field events of the 2014 Raleigh Relays will be the men's discus and the women's shot put at 10 a.m. The first day of competition will conclude with the late-night distance events -- capped by the men's 10,000 meters at 10:35 p.m. Saturday begins at 9:30 a.m. with the second section of the 10,000 meters and will end at 4:45 p.m. with the 4x400-meter relay.
Last week at the home opener at Franklin Field, the Quakers posted several victories, but the highlight came in the discus where Penn set two school records with throws from Sam Mattis and freshman Nailah Hill. Mattis previously held the men's record, which he set last year, at a distance of 58.34 meters. On Saturday, he had a toss of 59.94 meters. It was a good day in the discus for the women as well as Hill bumped off the school's all-time top throw of 45.46 meters, which was recorded by Monica Maccani back in 2001. Hill took the top spot with her toss of 45.82 meters.
Last year in Raleigh, then-freshman Thomas Awad highlighted the meet with a victory in the 5,000 meters in 14:04.75. That was the third-fastest time in school history, the fastest by a Quaker in 35 years and the sixth-fastest in the nation at the time. The last Quaker to hit that mark was Steve Shotles when he set the school standard at 13:51.2 in 1978. Maalik Reynolds won his section of the high jump when he cleared 2.15 meters.
A full recap will be available at PennAthletics.com shortly after the conclusion of the meet.

Lines of storms moving across Arkansas prompted a tornado warning but forecasters say the main danger from the mix is straight-line winds and hail.
The National Weather Service issued a tornado warning for Hempstead County on Monday afternoon. There was no initial indication whether a tornado was on the ground.
A cold front is sweeping through Arkansas, bringing widespread rain and thunderstorms. Forecasters said southern Arkansas was at the greatest risk of severe weather.
The storms should leave the state by early Tuesday. Another storm system is expected to move in late Wednesday or early Thursday. Forecasters say the southeast third of the state could also see more severe weather with that storm.

First durable and hygienic sauté pan
Demeyere is the only manufacturer worldwide to market this type of sauté pans. They have the same properties as the heavy, old-fashioned copper pots that required more maintenance and are not really suitable for our modern kitchens. In addition, all Demeyere products are made from 18/10 stainless steel, finished off with a Brinox or Silvinox surface coating (depending on the series). The welded stainless steel handles prevent the accumulation of dirt or leftovers and guarantee hygienic cooking.

Mars is a candy bar with a very confusing history. If you want to read the full story, I recommend you check out Wikipedia's article on the Mars bar, but for here I'll give you are more succinct version. Mars bar was originally a UK candy bar, which is essentially their version of our Milky Way: creamy nougat with a stripe of caramel covered in chocolate. There has been countless varieties and variations over the years, so it's a little tricky to keep track of them.
So imagine my surprise when I see this Mars bar sitting in the checkout shelf in a Wal-Mart. The package is not the traditional UK style with the black background and the bright red lettering, so I realize this must be some version for the USA. I notice almonds decorating the packaging, which is an immediate tip off that this isn't the traditional bar. Excited to try it, I nab one off the shelf and take it home with me.
Once the bar is out of the wrapper, it looks like any traditional candy bar: rectangular with a pretty chocolate enrobing pattern on top. It smells sweet and inviting.
I take a bite.
My first impression on the bar is the fresh crunchy almonds. They're whole too, as far as I can tell. They're the main flavor and texture of this bar, kinda like how the peanuts are for a Snickers bar. The caramel is not there at all, I hardly notice it and it doesn't leave a trail at all when I bite into it. The nougat is sweet and fluffy, but doesn't add much flavor. The milk chocolate is nice and sweet, and balances out the almonds.
Overall? It didn't wow me in any way. The nuts were the nicest part, so if you're into nutty candy bars or an almond lover. I suggest checking it out.

Officials say there will be temporary road closures along Highway 70 in Saline County as crews remove winter storm debris.
The Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department says the work will be done on each side of the highway weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. The project is expected to continue through Jan. 31, weather permitting.
The cleanup comes after a Christmas Day storm toppled trees and dumped more snow across the state.
The storm also left more than a quarter-million Arkansas homes and businesses without power for part of a week.
