The Calhoun Lady Jackets made program history as they advanced to their first ever Elite Eight with an 81-48 home win over Bowdon in the Class AA second round.
The Lady Jackets (26-1), who have now won 25 straight games, will move on to host No. 1-ranked Wesleyan on Tuesday.
It wasn't as good a night out at Sonoraville, as the best season in Lady Phoenix history came to an end with a 57-50 home loss to Decatur. Sonoraville, who won their first region title last week and also won their first-ever state tournament game on Tuesday against Hart County, finishes the season with a 27-2 record.

My kids both shrugged and said "meh," and went back to what they were doing. But Lisa and I are happy! Nice shape, no mice, and if there's an ugly side, nobody will see it unless they're looking through our windows. A new tradition is born! Now, this tree just needs a little love.

The result is so outrageously rich and alluring that Alaskans call these treats salmon candy.
See individual products for their Omega 3/6 Balance Scores.
What do Omega 3/6 Balance Scores mean for your health?
Keep frozen at or below 0ﺍ F (-18ﺍ C). Vacuum-sealed fish held under these conditions should retain its quality for at least six to 12 months. Shellfish and lean white fish (halibut, cod) generally have a longer freezer life than fatty fish (salmon, tuna, sablefish).
NOTE: Seafood stored in frost-free freezers should be used within 3 months.
Thawing instructions
Thaw under refrigeration at or below 38 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius). Before thawing, puncture or remove packaging.
For quick-thawing
, place frozen package in cool water for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, just until contents are flexible. Once thawed, immediately cook or refrigerate (if refrigerating, puncture package). Prior to cooking, do not allow fish to reach temperatures above 38 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius).
Serving tips
Smoked fish is as safe as cooked fish, thanks to the natural, salt-mediated curing process and flash-freezing.
Serve on a bialy, whole grain bagel, thin-sliced dark rye bread, or crisp rye cracker such as Wasa Bread.
Spread the bagel, bread, or cracker with light cream cheese or avocado and top the salmon with thin tomato slices and/or capers and fresh basil leaves.
Crumble chunks into scrambled eggs with chopped, quick-sautéed chives, scallions, or bell peppers.

LTech Ballpoint
Nice but not NICE!
The pen was a "special" purchase for me. I wanted a _nice_ pen, so I splurged. The pen is nice. But it isn't as hefty as I expected. The pen fits nicely and is pleasing with which to write. The ink doesn't have that easy flow and the click end doesn't always retract the point. It is not that "special" pen for which I was hoping. I have received heftier pens from high end clients marketing to me. I knew it wasn't going to be a $160 pen but I am not sure it is a $60 pen either.
June 5, 2012
L- Tech Ballpoint
I just received my L- Tech ballpoint. So far I am very pleased with the pen. It's just what they say it was.
April 27, 2012
Great pen - so- so quality
I received this pen as a birthday gift. The look and feel ooze quality but my pen did not extend far enough out of the body. I called customer service and they were spectacular in replacing the pen even before I sent the original back. Comparing the 2 pens side by side, I saw that the clicker of the "bad" pen extended further out of the body of the pen. The new pen extends just fine but the fit between the refill and the body of the pen is just a little bit loose. It is not so bad that I will return the new pen, because I really like it otherwise. Once Levenger resolves the quality issues with this pen it will be perfect !
March 18, 2012
love this pen
I write with a pen all day long for a living. For years I used rotring ballpoints, so was dismayed when this went off the market. Thank you Levenger for reviving this excellent design which is a very close iteration, at least in my hand. No complaints, other than that the clip is a bit flimsy, as was the original, Please don't stop making this.
February 27, 2012
Click action doesn't!
The action on this pen is terrible, I can't imagine why Levenger hasn't fixed what is clearly a design flaw. It doesn't click, it's more of a mushy push. Which half the time doesn't work and you have to do it again. And periodically it just locks up, you have to turn it upside down and push it on a hard surface to get it unstuck. This is a beautiful, heavy pen, which I would love if it actually worked. I should have listened to the other reviews, this pen simply does not work.
September 11, 2010
Poorly made
I recently bought a L-Tech ballpoint pen. It is poorly made as the clicking piece came the day after I started using it. I tried to glue it in place with krazy glue. It stayed in place for a while and now it is coming out again. I am very disappointed with this $58 purchase, my first bad experinece with Levenger.
January 22, 2010
L-Tech Ballpoint Pen
I just received the pen the day before yesterday so I haven't had much experience with it yet. My initial impression is that it is well made, and it writes nicely. I also like the knurled grip that I find provides a good grip, without being abrasive on the fingers. My chief complaints; the clip has as small diameter ball on the underside that tends to catch on my shirt pocket rather than slide easily over the pocket. The clip is located too far back on the body such that not enough of the pen remains above my shirt pocket to allow for easy retrieval. Lastly I agree with some of the previous reviews that not enough of the tip protrudes from the body when extended. It's more of an aesthetic problem than a functional one.
August 4, 2009
Great pen
Nice well made pen. I like the knurled grip area like the old Rotring 600 series. Looks nice but not too flashy or fragile like a Mont Blanc. This is a great sturdy daily use pen.
January 11, 2009
Great Product
Concur with most reviewers regarding the end cartridge extending from barrel. Applied kleenex solution and consider it fixed. For an arthritic such as myself that has problems gripping, holding, and writing, the diameter, scored grip, and weight of this pen are ideal
September 23, 2008
Not as good as I had hoped
I purchased the old-style Rotring 600 pen and pencil from Levenger about 10 years ago. I was happy that Levenger decided to keep the design alive when Rotring discontinued it, but I had hoped that they would keep the same design with only minor cosmetic changes. The changes include a shorter overall length, a rededsigned clip, a more angular tip, and more surface area to the knurled grip. The pen feels a little wider as well, but I do not have a precise tool for measuring such things. Unfortunately, the mechanical changes left a lot to be desired. The retraction mechanism feels "cheap". It has a sickly "sqeek" to it and the click is very "sharp", not smooth like the original Rotring design. The tip of the pen is OK, but like other reviewers have pointed out, the cartridge tip does not extend far enough out of the tip for my taste. It writes ok, but it doesn't look right. The angled tip doesn't quite look right to me in general, but I am biased towards the original design (it wasn't broken, why change it?). Overall, it is a nice pen though, and I look forward to putting it to good use. If you want the look and feel of the original design, you are better off looking for old stock online, but be prepared to pay a premium for it.

Vaginal Pessaries
Treatment Overview
A vaginal pessary is a removable device placed into the vagina. It is designed to support areas of Reference pelvic organ prolapse Opens New Window.
There are a variety of pessaries available, made of rubber, plastic, or silicone-based material. Among common types of pessaries are the Reference inflatable Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window, the Reference doughnut Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window, and the Reference Gellhorn Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window.
Your doctor will fit your pessary to hold the pelvic organs in position without causing discomfort. Pessaries come in different sizes and should be fitted carefully. See a picture of how a Reference pessary Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window should fit.
Pessaries can be used successfully to treat other gynecologic conditions, such as a uterus that is in the wrong position.
What To Expect After Treatment
Your pessary will be fitted at your doctor's office. You may need to experiment with different kinds of pessaries to find one that feels right for you. Your doctor will teach you how to remove, clean, and Reference reinsert the pessary Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window on a regular schedule. The cleaning schedule is determined by the type of pelvic organ prolapse and the specific brand of pessary. If it is hard for you to remove and replace your pessary, you can have it done regularly at your doctor's office.
Why It Is Done
Pessaries are used as a nonsurgical approach to the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. They are frequently used to treat uterine prolapse in young women during pregnancy. In this instance, the pessary holds the uterus in the correct position before it enlarges and becomes trapped in the vaginal canal.
Pessaries are also used when symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse are mild or when childbearing is not complete. They can be used in women who have other serious chronic health problems, such as heart or lung disease, that make a surgical procedure more dangerous.
Pessaries are sometimes used to see what the effect of surgery for pelvic organ prolapse will be on urinary symptoms. This is called a "pessary test." If you have a problem with incontinence with a pessary inserted, a separate surgery to fix the incontinence problem may be done at the same time as a prolapse surgery.
How Well It Works
Pessaries do not cure pelvic organ prolapse but help manage and slow the progression of prolapse. They add support to the vagina and increase tightness of the tissues and muscles of the pelvis. Symptoms improve in many women who use a pessary. And for some women, symptoms go away.Reference 1
Possible complications from wearing a pessary include:
- Open sores in the vaginal wall.
- Bleeding.
- Wearing away of the vaginal wall. In severe cases, an opening (Reference fistula Opens New Window) can form between the vagina and the rectum.
- Bulging of the rectum against the vaginal wall (rectocele formation).
Complications can be minimized by having a pessary that fits correctly and that does not put too much pressure on the wall of the vagina. Your pessary should be checked frequently by your doctor until both of you are satisfied with the fit.
In post menopausal women, estrogen (cream, ring, or tablets) is sometimes used with a pessary to help with irritation caused by the pessary.
Follow your doctor's instructions for cleaning your pessary. Regular cleaning reduces the risk of complications. The cleaning schedule is determined by the type of pelvic organ prolapse and the specific brand of pessary.
What To Think About
Pessaries often are an effective tool for managing pelvic organ prolapse without surgery. They may be the best choice if you are a young woman who has not finished having children, if you have been told that surgery would be risky for you, or if you do not wish to have surgery for other reasons.
A pessary may not be a good choice after having a Reference hysterectomy Opens New Window. This is because the walls of the vagina are no longer held in place by the uterus and cervix. Women with severe prolapse following a hysterectomy may have difficulty keeping the pessary in place.
Many women can have sexual intercourse with their pessary in place. But you cannot insert a diaphragm (a round rubber device used as a barrier method of birth control) while wearing a pessary. If you have not reached Reference menopause Opens New Window, you may want to discuss birth control with your doctor.

Welcome to the documentation of the Messenger Plus! Live skinning system. This technical documentation is intended to be read by skin developers. Whether it is to make your first skin or to get more information on a given skinning subject, you've come to the right place!
A technology you should be familiar with before you can create full featured Messenger Plus! skins is XML. XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language and looks like HTML. It is basically a way to define data in text form. If you've never worked with XML before, you'll quickly see how straightforward it can be. A lot of tutorials can be found on the internet and despite the fact that XML can be typed in any text editor, it is highly recommended that you get a good XML editor that will be able to validate your syntax. The Messenger Plus! Live skinning system makes extensive use of XML in the SkinInfo configuration file (the main file used to define the properties of a skin) and Messenger's own Windows Definition files use a very similar syntax.
The structure of SkinInfo is defined in what's called an XML Schema file. Even if this file is also text based, schema files are meant to be read in graphic form; do not try to read its XML data as this would make your task more difficult than it should be. A very good XML editor capable of perfectly rendering XML Schema files is XMLSpy from Altova (the Standard Edition is available as a free trial).
Aside from the technology, what you mostly need is the will to learn how to work with the system. Skinning is something that anybody with ideas and average computer knowledge can do but you'll need to be patient and willing to put time into your project if you want something good to come out of it. This documentation includes explanation pages, references, examples, ... use them! If you don't feel easy about skinning, just take it one step at a time, spend time in the various topics/examples available, and stick to reproducing what you see while bringing your own small modifications to existing skin code. Your first lesson awaits you in what's a skin in Messenger Plus!.
If you need help about anything related to skinning, feel free to visit the official Messenger Plus! forum. Please remember to search if somebody posted a similar question before you and if the answer was already given: you'll get your answer faster and it will save us some time to help other members. Also, if you become a more advanced skin developer with time, we would appreciate if you could help on the forum and answer people's questions when you know the answer :).
Have fun! Patchou

I have been looking at recipes and ingredient, and notice that alot of the contain LOTS of seeds and nuts. I was wondering where you all get so much of them....do you buy the little 1 pound packages at your wfs? if so....that's VERY expensive. I found a site where I can get raw nuts, but are not organic...so I'm kinda sad any tipe on where I can load up onthese? I'd rather buy im bulk really.
As for your produce, is it all organic? Our farmer's market here does not carry all that much. Whole foods has alot of organice, but some stuff I'd need is conventional, so is that okay to use? I fdeel that after detoxing and stuff, it would not be too smart to startusing alot of conventional producs, but seems like I wont have much of a choice, bleh. I can't garden as I live in an apartment, and my bacony is already packed with stuff, so there's no room . I will be moving into a house (hopefully) soon , so I may start a garden...dunno yet.
What about dates? where do you get those? I'm used to buying them in a container but they are small, not the Majool, those are hard to find here for some reason. I notice the Majool are the most popular in recipes.
any more pointers you guys can give me?

HARTFORD — A suspended Roman Catholic priest in Connecticut has pleaded not guilty to federal drug charges accusing him of taking in more than $300,000 from sales of methamphetamines.
The Connecticut Post reports that 61-year-old Kevin Wallin entered the pleas Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Hartford. Four other people have been charged in the alleged drug-selling operation that authorities say involved shipments of methamphetamine from California to Connecticut.
Wallin is the former pastor of St. Augustine Parish in Bridgeport. He resigned in 2011 citing health and personal issues and was suspended from public ministry last May by the Diocese of Bridgeport.
Federal prosecutors say Wallin sold most of the drugs out of his apartment in Waterbury from August to December and some of the transactions involved an undercover officer.

drink water, orange juice or Cola before eating?Moderator: BioTeam
14 posts • Page 2 of 2 • 1, 2
Re: drink water, orange juice or Cola before eating?It is a complete untruth that you should not drink water with a myth. It is an urban myth that was started that has no factual basis. If you drink water, the stomach has the ability to detect pH. The actual process is much more complex mechanically, but that doesn't need to brought into the discussion. Pepsin is the active form of a protein called a zymogen which is enzyme that has to be cleaved to be activated. Pepsin as well as other enzymes (enzymes are all proteins but not all proteins are enzymes) such as trypsin start off with -ogen at the end of their name. Pepsinogen and trypsinogen. They are cleaved by the hydrochloric acid secreted by parietal cells in the stomach to pepsin and trypsin (both secreted by chief cells).
Regardless of acidity in the stomach, the acid is neutralized in beginning by bicarbonate because the acid will damage the enyzmes and the lining of the intestine. Now, only in specific cases such as chronic heart burn or ucler conditions will acidity be a problem. There can also be problems with not secreting enough acid in some individuals. Only found in the elderly but relatively not frequent. For the most part, people do not have a problem secreting enough acid into their stomach. Drinking soda and juices can just add to unwanted many calories in the diet for some people. If you withhold water during a meal, the stomach has to make more mucus and water into the stomach which can be a major problem for those that suffer hypertension and other blood volume conditions. The stomach cannot mix properly if it does not have the fluidity to mix problem. You can try this by eating a very heavy fatty cake where the water will not mix with the fat (trust me it doesn't feel good). The enzymes in the intestine have to find their destination in the food in order to breakdown the food that you have consumed. If you have a nice "dry" stomach, where everything is really super viscous your enzymes will not find what they are looking for as easily and will result in improper digestion. This can result in digestive problems further down the line. Now, there is some validity to not drinking as much water because it might slow down stomach emptying and as a result keep you full longer. This is advantageous in those that want to lose weight by doing less snacking. The moral of this story... drink water with your meal or any other beverage in moderation (not too much and not too little) because your body is extremely adaptive. Unless you have instructions from your physician or evidence to say that you have an acid secretion problem, don't worry too much and enjoy your meal. Like others have said, try eating without a drink and its quite hard.
not all enzymes are proteins, e.g. the ribozyme is RNA
trypsin is not cleaved by HCl since it is not in stomach why should be the acid neutralized? Where does the bicarbonate come from? http://www.biolib.cz/en/main/
Cis or trans? That's what matters.

Lawmakers in Moscow moved Friday to ban Americans from adopting Russian children, passing a bill that imposes a series of sanctions on U.S. interests, state media reported.
Russia is one of the top countries of origin for international adoptions in the United States.
The State Duma, Russia's lower house of parliament, adopted the bill on its third reading, the state-run RAPSI news agency reported.
The measure will now move to the Federation Council and, if approved there, will go to President Vladimir Putin to be signed into law, the news agency said.
The legislation could affect hundreds of American families seeking to adopt Russian children.
It also bars any political activities by nongovernmental organizations receiving funding from the United States, if such activities may affect Russian interests, the news agency said, and imposes sanctions against U.S. officials thought to have violated human rights.
The move by Russian politicians is widely seen as retaliation for a law that U.S. President Barack Obama signed December 14. That bill, called the Magnitsky Act, imposes U.S. travel and financial restrictions on human rights abusers in Russia.
"The United States is concerned by measures in the bill passed in the Russian Duma today that, if it becomes law, would halt inter-country adoptions between the United States and Russia and would restrict the ability of Russian civil society organizations to work with American partners," U.S. State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said.
The Magnitsky act is named in honor of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky, who uncovered the largest tax fraud in the country's history in the form of rebates claimed by government officials who stole money from the state. Magnitsky died in 2009 after a year in a Moscow detention center, apparently beaten to death.
Russian leaders have criticized the bill, which also places sanctions on those involved in the tax fraud Magnitsky uncovered and those responsible for his detention, abuse, and death.

Recommended Restaurants by Groupon Customers
Though it isn't a matchmaking service, Grovewood Tavern is responsible for more than 150 successful relationships in the past decade, all of which were realized over dinner. The brick-enclosed restaurant specializes in the delicious puppy love between food and drink, hosting meals that pair fine wines, beers, and spirits with bites from a globally conscious kitchen. The courses encourage guests to savor combinations in the moment, but also nod to the history inside the glassware. Trivia and origin stories accompany the drinks, detailing their flavors and the favorable reviews they've received. Some dinners benefit from presentation by expert hosts, including vineyard aficionados and people who know how the ghosts are added to each bottle of spirits.
Outside of these showcases, visitors can still enjoy selections from the tavern's regular menu. Duck-burger sliders and spice-rubbed ahi-tuna sandwiches dispel any worries about stereotypical pub fare, and the entrees' emphasis on local and organic ingredients adds a refreshing ease of conscience to each bite. Grovewood's catalog of savory meats ranges from Japanese-style barbecued chicken to the bison pot roast, which, according to a 2007 feature in the Plain Dealer, "falls gloriously apart, upon gentle forkage." Chefs accommodate vegetarians and vegans as well. A wealth of meat- and gluten-free options speckles the menu's pages, and the pairing dinners list substitutions for nonveggie helpings, replacing tea-smoked duck breast with grilled tofu and skirt steak with vegan beef.
Luxe's eclectic mix of Mediterranean small plates, elegantly presented shareable appetizers, pizzas, and hearty burgers mirrors the varied design elements of the dining room, which sets baroque crystal chandeliers against an industrial metal ceiling. This classic and contemporary interplay carries over into rich, detailed carpets underfoot and a vintage safe whose lock spins in time to the beats of house DJ Brick Barnes every Thursday through Sunday. On Wednesday evenings, live jazz filters onto the outdoor patio, a serene space decorated with manicured shrubbery, a stone bar, and massive umbrellas designed to block dive-bombing herrings. Serving Sunday brunch and dinner, the restaurant also hosts special events throughout the month and opens its doors for private events and catering orders.
The friendly staff and modern atmosphere at David's make it a great place to enjoy tasty lunchtime favorites. In the business of slinging great deli fare for 15 years, David's uses the freshest ingredients and makes everything, including its famous sandwiches, fresh to order. These layers of thin-sliced satisfaction cost $2.95 to $9.75. The hometown favorite Clevelander ($7.25) piles fresh-cut roast turkey breast, Swiss cheese, creamy coleslaw, and Thousand Island dressing on David's beloved hand-cut rye bread. Bring an animal-loving friend, and your Groupon will still cover the vegetarian ($4.95), a pita sandwich packed with mixed vegetables marinated in a light vinaigrette dressing, your choice of cheese, and alfalfa sprouts for safety. You'll also find some excellent specimen of the sandwiches' skinnier sister, the wrap. Try the all-American ($5.95) with ham, roast turkey breast, and American cheese, along with garnishes and a honey-mustard spread. That still leaves ample room on your Groupon meter for a few of David's tasty cookies ($0.95), brownies ($1.75), or other desserts.
When his wife received a job opportunity in Cleveland, Chef Anthony Vicente left behind his position at the renowned Michelin-rated Pierre Gagnaire restaurant in Paris. Upon arrival, the Frenchman reassembled his passion for haute cuisine, along with several Statues of Liberty, into a select menu featuring the culinary crème de la crème. Start by waking up a sluggish palate with appetizers such as the red beet carpaccio with spinach, curry dressing, goat cheese, and smoked bacon ($8) or the paella with calamari and chorizo ($10) before dazzling it with dinner entrees that include rack of lamb with mashed carrots and mint emulsion ($24) and duck breast with mustard mashed potatoes and passion fruit sauce ($22). Everything can be sided with à la carte items like creamy leeks and mashed celery root ($5 each). Discriminating diners may also select an appetizer, entree, dessert, and two glasses from Taste's extensive red, white, and sparkling wine lists (under $10 per glass) for a prix fixe rate of $49.
West End Bistro houses a bar on the ground floor, while a lofted dining room provides a peaceful space for face stuffing amid shades of rich brown and cool jade green. This two-tiered house of comestibles keeps spaces for social mingling and private eating in their own domains, helping patrons avoid chatting up their food in the confusion that would otherwise result. While upstairs, peruse the menus, which come in lunch and dinner varieties. For lunch, keep it light with a chicken salad croissant ($9) topped with whole-grain mustard aioli, red onions, celery, and basil, served with a side of fresh fruit; or go hog-wild and consume an entire mushroom and chevre pizza ($12), an edible circle coated in caramelized onions, fresh thyme, roasted red peppers, provolone, garlic chips, and sherry gastrique.
Cafe 56 entertains hardcore health fans with an impressive array of salads, backed by a selection of fast-serving soups, wraps, and sandwiches for pacifying enraged lunch-time tummies. Entertain a date with stories about your underwater tea party with the Kraken while diving into the Romantic Interlude ($6), a Greek salad with crumbled feta and Bermuda onions, served with oregano red-wine vinaigrette. If one yearns for a salad that exhibits brash coolness and impeccable vocals, then they'll look no further than Flank Sinatra ($6), where shredded mozzarella, marinated steak, and oven-roasted tomatoes produce the salad equivalent of a well-executed pop standard. Each salad comes with your choice of 16 kinds of dressing—traditionalists choose old standbys such as buttermilk ranch while experimental dressing explorers dabble with fat-free toasted sesame.

TORRINGTON >> Torrington's girls basketball team came from a disappointing loss against St. Paul, Friday, to redemption on all fronts in a convincing 63-42 win over Crosby Monday evening at Torrington High School.
"We had a nice second half," smiled Red Raider coach Mike Fritch. "We're still struggling a little against the zone — knowing who should go where. But we shot better. We were more relaxed and we didn't rush our shots."
The Raiders (10-4) shot 23 percent from the field Friday, a huge part of Friday's five-point loss.
Monday, the shots were there, outside and in against Crosby 2-3 zone.
"We've been practicing working through a zone a lot — working the ball into the post, which we didn't do Friday," said junior point guard Caroline Teti.
Teti shared game scoring honors, 21 points, with Crosby sophomore Za'Nayia Love, the NVL's leading scorer (20.3 points a game).
Teti's three 3-pointers combined with three more from Nicole Kozlak (9 points) and one from Paige Middleton for an outside barrage, drawing out the Bulldog zone. Teti and others used the lanes for drives and passes in to Megan Calabrese (career-high 18 points) and Mika Howard (6 points).
Calabrese (13 rebounds) and Howard (10 rebounds) led Torrington's dominant assault on the boards (32-15).
"We were flat Friday," said Calabrese. "We worked on our intensity."
"I just try to use more of my body," laughed Howard, explaining how a 5-foot-3 forward can have so much success over people at least six inches taller under the boards. Continued...
On the other side, Love worked for her points without much support from the Bulldogs (6-7).
"Sometimes, we just don't want to play," said Crosby coach Phil Lott. "On the bus, nobody's talking. Holiday or no, you've got to be ready to play."
"It was a funky situation," said Coach Fritch — good for the Raiders, not so much for the Bulldogs.
Crosby was making its second trip to Torrington this season. The first time, a month ago, Crosby freshman Deborah Vaichus took an inadvertent flick of a defender's wrist, just over her eye, late in the first quarter. She turned, put a hand to her eye and collapsed, unconscious for several minutes before medics arrived to take her to Charlotte Hungerford Hospital.
By mutual consent, the game was suspended.
Now, in an early start (6 p.m.) and a cold, light snowstorm that kept all but a few fans away, Vaichus was back on the court. She is recovered from the diagnosed concussion, but the scoreboard reverted to the moment of her injury: 1:06 left in the first quarter, Torrington leading 12-9.
The score stayed there for the rest of the period. Kozlak signalled Torrington's return to shooting form with a three-pointer 32 seconds into the second quarter. Love showed her stuff on a drive to the hoop. So did Calabrese on a put-back.
The final element of redemption from Friday's loss came in Torrington's smothering defense.
Leading 17-11, Calabrese tied up one Bulldog drive. Teti came away with a steal and length-of-the-court break on another.
Already credited with a three-pointer from last month, Teti sank her first one of the night midway through the period for a 22-11 Raider lead. Continued...
Love brought the Bulldogs back with six of their next seven points, 22-18. Howard hit from the outside for Torrington's halftime lead, 24-18.
Teti scored the first four points of the second half. Calabrese and Howard connected on a great pass play.
Clamping down with a full-court press, Teti got two steals and race-home baskets in a row.
Down 34-20, Coach Lott called time out.
This time, there was no catching the Raiders. Love scored points in the third quarter, but Middleton's three-pointer with seconds left in the period brought the Raider lead back to 15 (44-29).
Calabrese's final basket for the night, a put-back with 3:58 left in the game, built the biggest spread of the night, 61-34. Bench players on both sides went in from there.
The Raiders were all the way back. The Bulldogs went home to get ready to play the next one.
