The agony of defeat at the Olympics
For every high at the Olympics, there's a corresponding low. In fact, there may well be many more lows than highs simply because more competitors end up losing than winning at the Games, and their expressions and reactions when the outcome has been decided can be poignant and emotional. Here Egypt's Hesham Abdelaal prayed following his loss to Uzbekistan's Jasurbek Latipov in their men's fly (52kg) round of 16 boxing match. Click through for reactions from others who saw their dreams of gold come crashing down. Next
A Lam Shin of Korea sat and cried as she waited an hour to hear the outcome of an appeal to overturn the judges' ruling on an issue of a delayed clock that caused her to lose her bout against Britta Heidemann of Germany during the women's epee individual fencing semifinals on Day 3. Heidemann scored the final point with one second left on the clock to win against Shin, who lost her appeal.

Theo Peckham had a good laugh on Jason Gregor's Show on TEAM 1260 today, and it wasn't about his listed weight of 235 pounds in the Edmonton Oilers media guide, although the guffaws were most certainly related to it.
"I love cheeseburgers," admitted Peckham, who was no nearer his listed weight of 235 pounds last season than I am to an appearance on the cover of GQ Magazine. "I love burgers . . . just any type of burger, anything. I haven't had on in a about two-and-half weeks and it's killing me."
I don't know exactly what Peckham weighed last year, but my best guess is he tipped the scales closer to 250 on his six-foot-two frame than 235. A love of cheeseburgers will do that, even to a pro athlete like Peckham, who gets more exercise in a week during the NHL season than most of us do in a full year.
While a guy who writes about hockey might be able to get away with that – I know a scribe the same height as Peckham who arrived in Edmonton in 1989 weighing 220 pounds and bent the beams at 315 in 2010 after years of touring NHL restaurants – a guy who plays hockey for a living cannot.
That became apparent to me every time I saw Peckham in the Oilers dressing room this season – fat is fat no matter how you dress it up – and I'm hoping it's clear to Peckham because it needs to be if he intends on staying in Edmonton's plans beyond the one-year contract for $1.075 million he just signed.
There's still a place for fat guys pushing three bills or more up in the press box. Down on the ice? Not so much.
It's not all about weight, of course. Body composition and a whole bunch of other measures play into the equation, but the bottom line and square one for a limited, third-pairing defenseman like Peckham, who is a better athlete than most people think he is, is he has to be in shape.
Peckham, only 24 as he gets ready for his fifth season with the Oilers, needs to be leaner to give himself a chance. Of course, Peckham has to be combative, smart and play a simple game, but everything for a naturally big-bodied guy like Theo begins with being in shape.
To that end, Peckham is spurning his desires for those big patty stacks in favor of workout sessions with fitness guru Norm Lacombe, who looks like he's in better shape now, in his 50s, than when he played. That's the first step in Peckham getting back to the form he showed in 2010-11 before his struggles of last season.
With just a one-year deal in place, Peckham can't afford another season like he had in 2011-12, when he played just 54 games and was made a healthy scratch by Tom Renney with regularity. The shape he was in and confidence issues played a significant role in that.
Touted as a comer destined to be stay-at-home, shot-blocking shutdown type after 2010-11, Peckham is today behind Ryan Whitney, Jeff Petry, Ladislav Smid, Nick Schultz, Justin Schultz and Corey Potter on the defense depth charts going into 2012 training camp. He doesn't have more room to slip if he intends being part of the plan moving forward.
If Peckham commits to getting in shape and back down to 230 pounds or so, as he said was his goal in his interview with Gregor, he's got a chance to be what a lot of people thought he might become just a year ago.
The other thing I see with Peckham, as I mentioned, has been lack of confidence. With the kind of tough, physical game Peckham plays, and has to play, I trace that back to a fight he lost to Nathan Horton at Rexall Place Feb. 27, 2011. Peckham got KOd in that scrap. He hasn't been the same since.
While it's a lot tougher to do than it is to say, Peckham has to find a way to put that fight behind him and regain the edge he played with. If you're going to step up on guys as Peckham must, and if you're going to be the antagonistic, yappy needler he is, then, rest assured, somebody isn't going to like it and the gloves are going to come off.
That's a bell Peckham has to be willing to answer again. Perhaps a chat with assistant coach Kelly Buchberger might come in handy on that front. Bucky often took a licking and always found a way to dust himself off and come back for more. Buchberger always got back on the horse. Peckham must, as well.
If Peckham can get his body and his head straight, there's a player there.
Listen to Robin Brownlee Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the Jason Gregor Show on TEAM 1260.
will Theo throw fifty fists this season?
The only burger Peckham should be indulging in, is a Buchburger. Peckham has shown flashes of good play, lets just hope he can sweat off the sugar tits and get his game back on this side of the golden pond.
Ya good for Peckham for being honest and ya I am going to rip on him for not staying in shape. He's a paid professional hockey player no excuse for being lazy when you have all the time and help in the world to do what you love. I'm sure if you were receiving his pay cheques you would do everything you could to be the best player and work hard towards it would you not?

Three Canadian teams in action this weekend at beach volleyball NORCECA stopCHULA VISTA, California (September 28,2012)– Three Canadian teams are in action at the eighth stop on the NORCECA (North and Central America and Caribbean) beach volleyball circuit to be held this Friday to Sunday (September 27-29).

The Emery County Commissioners met for two meetings in September. During the Sept. 11 meeting, Commissioner Jeff Horrocks read excerpts from Pres. Barack Obama's proclamation to commemorate Sept. 11, 2001. Pres. Obama recommended everyone perform service in honor of those who passed away that day.
The commission approved the contract with the Utah Department of Agriculture for mitigation of the invasive species, Russian olives. The cooperative agreement with Utah State Parks was approved for funding for the access road to Millsite State Park. It will be a two year and $2 million project.
Another project is the Ferron Bridge project. Nielson Construction was awarded the bid for this project.
The commission discussed the dropping of KODJ 94 and replacing it with KRPX. The commissioners said they have had a lot of comments on the subject and those comments leaned towards keeping KODJ and dropping one of the country stations. This will be done on a 60 day trial. Citizens can voice input to the commission during this trial period.
Sheriff Greg Funk approached the commission to request 200 passes to the Emery County Aquatics Center for incentives for the NOVA program. The passes would be used for students who are accomplishing their goals along the way to graduation from NOVA. One of the goals is staying away from video games and TV for a week. The sheriff said there are 186 students enrolled in this anti-violence, tobacco, drugs and alcohol program. At graduation there is a pizza party and the students are given a T-shirt, but he would like to see incentives along the way for the students. Sheriff Funk said it could be beneficial to the pool too and bring more families in to swim.
The commissioners said they have not given any free passes to the pool. They are concerned too many organizations would approach them for passes and you can't give passes to some groups and not others, so they have not given any to avoid having any issues.
Andy Urbanik from Castle Country Radio commented that the radio stations and the Emery County Progress newspaper could sponsor the NOVA program free swim passes. They will trade advertising on the radio and the newspaper for the pool and then the NOVA program can have 200 passes for the incentive program for NOVA. The commission agreed to that approach.
The county voted to be the entity that can receive the grant money from the NRCS for funding to help with flooding issues related to the fire. The grant is for $215,000 to help with debris removal along the creek and for safeguards for the Huntington culinary water system.
In the commission reports, Commissioner James Nelson said there are spots on ETV 10, advertising the electronic use of the library system. He attended the fire district meeting. The identity theft workshops had good attendance with 21 people in Green River and 73 people from the western end of the county attending. It's a huge issue. The county will put a link to the attorney general's office so people can go online and learn more.
Commissioner Laurie Pitchforth said she attended a summit for senior citizens in Price that discussed medicare and medicaid. They presented a book to seniors to help them get through some of the red tape involved. She is trying to get more of these books to give to local seniors. The senior citizen lamb fry at the Huntington City park was a success. She attended Peach Days and the patriotic program and field of flags in Ferron.
Commissioner Jeff Horrocks said he participated in the patriotic program as a veteran. There were speeches, poems and songs and it was a very nice event. He attended an energy summit with energy producers. Sen. Hatch and Sen. Lee were in attendance. The importance of the Uintah Basin for energy production was stressed and the taxes, jobs and benefits of energy production were discussed. The energy summit will hopefully become a yearly event. The Utah Association of Counties has formed a military task force to help military families as they serve and when they return home. Commissioner Horrocks also attended the local government trust meetings. There were meetings on the open meetings act and education about what can and cannot be done in closed meetings. He will pass the information he learned to the other commissioners.
Commissioner Nelson said the grazers are having issues. The cattle cannot go on the burned area. The grazers have put in a lot of work seeing the cows stay out of those areas with electric fence and extra herders.
In the second meeting of the month the commission approved Allison Weaver as a custodian, 90 day temporary workers include: Leanne Seely as a worker at the Museum of the San Rafael, Sherrie Fausett in the clerk/auditor's office, Cardell Sackett, economic development office and Earl Nelson, road department.
The county approved the secure rural schools allocation. The county receives $350,000 from this fund and 85 percent goes to schools and roads and 8 percent is allocated by the forest service RAC. Seven percent goes to the county general fund. Ray Petersen, public lands director sits on the forest service RAC. This body recently committed $160,000 for repair work on the problems in Huntington Canyon due to flooding. The commission approved the personal property tax exemptions. The board of equalization closed for the year and the commission adopted the changes approved by the board of equalization.
The commission set dates for budget work meetings beginning Oct. 2 from 8:30 a.m.- 10 a.m; Oct. 3-9-noon; Oct. 10- 9-noon; Oct. 15; 9-noon and 1-5 p.m; Oct. 16-9-noon. More work meetings will be set as needed.
The commission approved the veteran, circuit breaker and blind tax abatements as well as the low income property tax abatement.
The commissioners approved the report prepared by Mike McCandless, Ray Petersen and Val Payne. This report will be sent to the state public land coordinating office. The report answers the questions from HB-176. The county is the first to be subject to this new state law as they go through the process of gaining state approval for the Emery County Public Land Management Act of 2012. The report is 32 pages.
Commissioner Nelson said it is a well written report.
Kathleen Clarke is the director of the state public land coordinating office. She has expressed the need to get this worked out and use Emery County's work as a template for other counties wishing to write public land management plans.
Commissioner Horrocks said the county is approaching four years with the public lands bill. The public lands council put a lot of work into it. Commissioner Pitchforth commented that Ray and the others have done a great job with the report and she is currently reading the report.
Commissioner Horrocks called for the commission reports. Commissioner Nelson said he's been involved with the FEMA report created to detail the problems associated with the Seely fire and subsequent flooding. He said you have to see those flash flood areas to believe the devastation there.
He was with Ray Petersen when he presented the land bill to Sanpete County. They voiced concerns and want to be kept aware of what Emery County is doing. The commissioners attended training in Midway.
The commission is working with Huntington City to repair damages to the Huntington Creek channel. The commission received training on the health issues and regulations that are coming down from federal to state and down to local. Commissioner Nelson was involved with the mental health board in selecting a new director. Jan Bodily the current director is taking another position elsewhere. Karen Doland is the new director for Four Corners Behavioral Health.
Commissioner Pitchforth said there was a lot of information given at the UAC training including sage grouse and RS-2477 road issues. She said she likes the networking at these conferences and the help you receive from other commissioners. She told of the work with the NRCS grant and hopes this money will continue during the flood clean-up. A preconstruction meeting was held for the painting project on the San Rafael bridge. A preconstruction meeting was held for the Ferron bridge project.
Commissioner Pitchforth thanked Kent and Julie Wilson for cooking at the senior lamb fry and Al Shakespaere for entertaining. A new director was selected for the Emery County Recreation District, Jake Atwood was hired to replace Gaylee Jeffs who is leaving. "This was a hard process. There were some good applicants and I think Jake will do a great job," said Commissioner Pitchforth.
Commissioner Horrocks said he had attended jail meetings with the state where the discussion centered around using beds in county jails for state prisoners that are low to medium risk. The counties agreed they should work with the state to house these prisoners. The state could build a new facility for the high risk inmates. There was also talk of a set amount that the state would pay the counties for the housing of state prisoners so there wouldn't be competition amongst the counties.
Commissioner Horrocks said the September RAC meeting for the DWR was held in Castle Dale and fishing was discussed. The portion of the Huntington Creek affected by the fire has seen almost 100 percent fish mortality. There is still good fishing above the burn area in the fly zone below Electric Lake. The commissioners attended a meeting with Rocky Mountain Power concerning the Gateway South transmission lines. Commissioner Horrocks went with Mike McCandless up Huntington Canyon to look at the damage to the North Emery Water Users pumps and equipment that have sustained much damage with the flood and debris flows in Huntington Canyon. He said the Melon Days celebration in Green River was well attended and very nice.
Commissioner Nelson said they may need to add a paragraph to the letter to FEMA concerning the damages by the fire and floods to include the damage to the North Emery Water Users pump and equipment.
The next commission meeting will be on Oct. 9 at 9 a.m.

U.O.P. Study Finds Cannabis Industry To Be Largest Industry In Calaveras
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/16/2017 12:34 PM
Stockton, CA...Legal Cannabis Totals 19% of Calaveras Economy and 21% of Local Jobs, Dwarfing All Other Industries. The University of the Pacific Center for Business and Policy Research released a comprehensive study of the impact of the cannabis industry in Calaveras. The study finds the total direct and indirect economic impact of the legal cannabis industry to be $339.2 million per year, or 19% of the total local Gross Regional Product (GRP), and contributes 3,400 jobs, or 21% of the total local workforce. The direct economic output of legal cannabis, $251 million, is by far the largest industry in Calaveras. To put this in perspective the total economic output of all other agricultural commodities combined in Calaveras totals $28 million. The next largest industry in Calaveras, Hospitality (which includes Tourism, Lodging, Restaurants and others), has a direct economic output of $167.5 million.

It should be a drinking game, each time nbc mentions that the olympic medals are shoused in the same place as the crown jewels throw one back
It's getting annoying.
It should be a drinking game, each time nbc mentions that the olympic medals are shoused in the same place as the crown jewels throw one back
It's getting annoying.
But you have to admit, it is exciting, just like the fact that the shooting sports are at Royal military facilities and the rowing is (I think) at Eton, a boarding school so old it was founded by King Henry VI (son of the Henry V played by Kenneth Branagh in the movie and by Paul Wylie on the ice). British notables such as the Duke of Wellington (who defeated Napoleon), the poet Percy Shelley, and even Ian Fleming (creator of James Bond) attended Eton. All the romantic essence of Britain has seemingly been woven into the Olympics, just because they're using what they have lying around as part of their Olympic facilities.
I don't disagree, I just get tired of being told every other minute that the medals are housed with teh crown jewels, it's a little much to keep mentioning it...
They probably don't realize that we are watching so devotedly. They think they're getting new viewers every few hours who might not know. Not people like us who can recite the rankings by heart already on Day 3.
Facts like this have affected me, though. No offense to your wonderful upcoming vacation, but forget Disneyland! I wanna go to London!
I do love looking and learning of British history - but they've been pushing this on every hour of their coverage for the last two weeks... if people haven't heard it by now, they're never going to hear it... time to find something else to talk about (other than poor Jordyn Weiber, though, please! NBC has no tact in the face of disappointment... actually US Media in general sucks)
I also thought it was in poor taste that they wouldn't let herr out of the arena because the media wanted to talk to her... NBC commentators (not the sports stars turned commentators) are just horrid... except Terry Gannon, he's awesome.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Click on the links above for full meeting summaries.
Jeffrey M. Frankel, MD; Jay A. Motola, MD; and Deborah Lightner, MD, participate in the Health Policy Council meeting.
Jeffrey E. Kaufman, MD, member of both the Legislative Affairs Committee and the Health Policy Council, speaks to Sarah Elder, Senior Manager of Annual Fund and Individual Giving for the AUA Foundation.

Additional discussions included:
Coding Corner:
What is the proper way to code a transurethral resection of bladder neck?
The Gallagher Health Policy Scholar Program Selection Committee is pleased to announce the selection of James Ulchaker, MD, as the 2011-2012 Gallagher Health Policy Scholar. He is the fifth urologist to receive this honor.
The Gallagher Health Policy Scholar Program, created in honor of former AUA Executive Director G. James Gallagher, is designed to train the next generation of urologists for leadership positions in health policy. Scholars spend a full year engaged in critical seminars, conferences and meetings at the national level; receive mentoring from senior AUA physicians; and participate in a week-long health policy seminar for surgeons at Brandeis University, sponsored by the American College of Surgeons. Scholars also engage in other activities that ensure their immersion in and understanding of health policy issues important to urology.@blurbend
Dr. Ulchaker graduated from Baldwin Wallace College and Case Western University School of Medicine, and completed his residency at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. He has subsequently been on the Cleveland Clinic's staff in the section of Urologic Oncology/Prostate Center for 14 years. The majority of his research has been in the field of new technologies associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer, as well as biodegradable urethral stents and bladder cancer tumor markers.
Additionally, Dr. Ulchaker has been active in organized urology. He has served as president of both the Cleveland Urological Society and the Ohio Urological Society, as well as chair of the AUA's Young Urologists Committee. He currently serves as one of the AUA North Central Section's representatives to the AUA's Health Policy Council and as vice chair of the AUA Legislative Affairs Committee.
The Gallagher Health Policy Scholar Program Selection Committee is chaired by AUA Health Policy Chair Steven M. Schlossberg, MD, MBA, and is composed of all the chairs of the Health Policy-reporting committees.
"The Selection Committee was impressed with Dr. Ulchaker's background and dedication to the AUA and our profession," said Dr. Schlossberg. "There are tremendous professional demands on young urologists, and it is truly impressive when one carves out time to devote to organized urology. The opportunities afforded to him as the Gallagher Health Policy Scholar will certainly enrich his professional experience and benefit the AUA in the years to come."
"The talent and experience of this year's applicants were remarkable, which made the committee's selection difficult. We have been very fortunate over the program's five-year history to have such a qualified pool from which to choose. Each year the applicants bring more knowledge, diversity and understanding to the program. I hope this continues in the years to come," said Dr. Schlossberg.
The past Gallagher Health Policy Scholars are:
David F. Penson, MD, MPH, 2007-2008
J. Quentin Clemens, MD, MSCI, 2008-2009
Christopher Saigal, MD, MPH, 2009-2010
Christopher Gonzalez, MD, MBA, 2010-2011

Breach of Privacy Lawsuit Decision Favors Healthcare Providers Should you lose a laptop or computer disks containing unencrypted patient health information for 500 or more patients, you are required to report this incident to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).@blurbend HHS will then post it to their Office of Civil Rights breach disclosure Web site (link removed). Such an unauthorized disclosure may result in significant penalties imposed on you by HHS, but will it also result in your having to pay damages to the patients who may sue you for breach of privacy? A recent court decision in Portland, OR, seems to indicate that the answer is "maybe not." The Oregon Court of Appeals recently overturned a decision in a class action suit brought by 365,000 patients whose records were stolen from an employee's car. Although the provider paid approximately $100,000 to the HHS Office of Civil Rights, the Court of Appeals denied the award of damages to patients because there was no evidence that the patients were victims of fraud or identity theft as a result of the inadvertent disclosure. The judges ruled that while patients may feel compelled to invest in more carefully monitoring their credit, it was not sufficient grounds for payment of damages, and claims of "emotional distress" were unfounded. EHR Meaningful Use Stimulus Deadlines Do Not Trump Due Diligence Industry experts agree that the meaningful use incentive has stimulated providers to purchase electronic health record (EHR) systems since the final rules were published in late 2010. In order for a urologist to collect the $18,000 first-year incentive bonus from Medicare in 2011, a provider must demonstrate meaningful use of a certified EHR beginning no later than October 1, 2011. The measurement window in Year One is defined as 90 continuous days. However, it is far more important for a potential purchaser to take the time and effort necessary to carry out essential steps before signing a purchase order, even if that means not collecting the first installment this year. Remember, a practice can implement an EHR system as late as October 1, 2012, and still qualify for the full five-year Medicare payout of $44,000 per eligible provider. Even if you do not start until 2013, you only lose $6,000 per provider. In the long run, making a poor decision about which system works best for your practice will be far more expensive than this $6,000 loss.
Be sure to take the time to carry out the following essential steps:

As you know, the AUA Health Policy Brief has been transitioned into an interactive e-newsletter. This new format offers you an expanded, robust online archive of top health policy stories relating to urology, as well as single-click access to key information, including Medicare regulations, news releases and legislation. Using this new format, you will also be able to link directly to AUA Action Alerts, the UROPAC Web site, CMS reports, FDA alerts, AUA comment letters and the other online resources that we cover in the Health Policy Brief. This new, online format will make it easier than ever to stay on top of the issues that affect you and your practice, and we hope that you agree.@blurbend

I know there is no way to see into the future but just for fun what do we all see happening? Here is what I think.
Not a ton of cap room for FA or resigning. Since we are paying Mark big money and need a QB we will need to be cheap in other areas.
Tony is gone along with Tebow, Greene and Keller. Edwards resigns to a very cheap deal. We bring in a guy like a Norv Turner, Whisenhunt ect to run the Offense. Sanchez is on the roster as a highly paid backup to Vick. We use the majority of our picks on Offense drafting a TE, HB, and depth.
On Defense Scott goes to where ever Pettine lands giving Davis a chance to show what he has. Pace resigns for a cheaper deal. We resign Bell for another year. Landry is gone in FA. We use a 3rd or so to draft a safety, Our only pick on defense.
Westoff retires leaving our ST in the crapper.
Just a fun though process more than anything that will happen. Thoughts?

Not good. We're in rebuilding mode. Praying Woody blow it up and start over with a new staff. If Rex stays I plan on cancelling my NFL package with Direct TV. I can't watch garbage and pay for it. I plan on streaming games on my jailbroken Apple TV. I have no hope for next season.
Posted 23 December 2012 - 10:58 AM
My hope for the JETS should be the following, we need to blow it up from the inside out, get rid of Rex, Sparano, Pettine, Cavanaugh, TannenBUM, Sanchez, TeBLOW, Pace, Scott, Wilson, Thomas, and all the rest of the bums who don't make the cut...BLOW IT UP, START OVER, and get people in here that know what the hell they are doing..we need a GM that CAN evaluate talent, a HC who will hold players accountable, a OC who will use their QB's strengths, a QB who won't crumble under the NY pressure, a Veteran QB backup, a young, athletic LB core and players who won't just be here to collect a paycheck but actually want to win for the name on the side of the helmet..
Well YOU BETTER BLEED GREEN & WHITE!!!!
S-Dubb: like if she was giving me a handjob and I saw that thumb I don't know how I'd react

JoAnn Doherty, president of the New Jersey Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (NJAHPERD), accepts a resolution from State Board of Education President Arcelio Aponte at the May 1 State Board meeting. The board proclaimed May to be "National Physical Education and Sport Month" and urged "all school districts in the State of New Jersey to renew their commitment to quality health and physical education programs and physical activity to improve the health and well-being of this state's children."
The resolution was adopted the same day that Kidshealth.org, a website devoted to children's health and development, released a new survey that revealed an overwhelming majority of parents and teachers want health classes and physical education to be mandatory parts of the school day.
Doherty is a retired physical education teacher from Tenafly.

"picked this card for our combo birth announcement & xmas card for the season... nice quality & design. i am a no-frills type of person and this was straight to the point. ended up re-ordering more!!!"
"I never write reviews but I HAD to for this product. This christmas card turned out better than I could have ever imagined. My son was born in september and I never sent out birth announcements (because life with a newborn is chaotic) so I used it for our christmas card/be-lated birth announcement. It is beautiful the quality is 5 stars and seems like it should have cost 10x as much. I highly recommend."
"I received a lot of compliments on the card. The quality of the card is great. I would have loved to have seen the card in lighter colors and/or more holiday themed. I liked how you could design the back of the card with a different color and photo and add another message. I used this card as a combination birth announcement and Christmas card. I would recommend it."
