DETROIT (AP) Jim Schwartz held the challenge flag in his hand, certain Houston's long touchdown wouldn't count. Running back Justin Forsett was clearly down around his own 25-yard line, and that's where the ball would be spotted once the play was reviewed.
Then Schwartz threw his red flag onto the field - and in doing so, he ensured that the Texans' dubious scoring play would count.
``I know that we can't challenge a turnover or a scoring play and I overreacted,'' the Detroit coach said. ``That's all my fault. I overreacted in that situation and I cost us a touchdown.''
Schwartz's mistake was only the beginning. Detroit let a 10-point third-quarter lead slip away and lost 34-31 in overtime to the Texans on Thursday.
The Lions led 24-14 when Forsett scored on an 81-yard run, taking advantage of a blown call that couldn't be reviewed because of Schwartz's ill-advised challenge. Replays clearly showed Forsett's knee touching the ground around his own 25 - Detroit players even slowed up, assuming the play was over.
Forsett got up and ran all the way to the end zone.
``I know now that I was down, but I didn't think I was during the play. I didn't think my knee hit, and there was no whistle, so I kept going,'' Forsett said. ``I wasn't giving the touchdown back.''
Scoring plays are reviewed automatically - but if a coach throws a challenge flag like Schwartz did, the review is negated and an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty is assessed. So the touchdown stood despite obvious evidence it should never have happened.
``There should be no blame on Schwartz or the coaches,'' Detroit defensive lineman Kyle Vanden Bosch said. ``I mean, there's enough plays left out there, enough plays that we could have made. There were 70-plus minutes.''
Atlanta coach Mike Smith made a similar mistake a few days earlier against Arizona, throwing his challenge flag on a fumble that would've been subject to review anyway. Under the rules, he was assessed the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and the play was not reviewed, costing the Falcons a chance to get the ball back.
Detroit (4-7) still led 24-21 after Forsett's touchdown, and the Lions took a 31-24 advantage on Joique Bell's 23-yard TD run with 13:31 left in the fourth.
Houston rallied, tying it at 31 on Arian Foster's 1-yard run with 1:55 to play. That touchdown capped a 15-play, 97-yard drive that included a conversion on fourth-and-7.
Texans kicker Shayne Graham missed from 51 yards in overtime, but Detroit's Jason Hanson hit the right upright from 47. Graham finally connected from 32 to win it.
Detroit extended its losing streak in its annual Thanksgiving showcase to nine. Vanden Bosch had a chance to change the outcome in overtime, but he was unable to hold onto an errant pass by Houston quarterback Matt Schaub that bounced off the defensive lineman's hands deep in Houston territory.
``It's going to be really tough to forget that one,'' Vanden Bosch said.
Hanson's miss came on third down after the Lions had lost 3 yards on a second-down run. The Lions sent the veteran kicker onto the field instead of trying to move the ball a bit closer.
``We didn't want to give up a negative play, and they'd been trying really hard to strip the ball, so we didn't want to risk a turnover,'' Schwartz said.
The Lions were hoping a three-game homestand could help revive their playoff hopes, but they lost against Green Bay last weekend and couldn't hold on against the Texans.
AFC South-leading Houston (10-1) has won five straight - two in a row in OT - and if a handful of teams lose, the Texans could be in the playoffs by the end of this weekend.
If the Lions didn't have enough problems, defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh could be in trouble with the league again after his left cleat connected with Schaub's groin area in the first quarter.
``I really don't have anything to say about that play or that person,'' Schaub said.
Suh was on his chest, taken down by an offensive lineman, when he extended his left foot below Schaub's belt.
It wasn't clear on replays whether the kick was intentional. Suh didn't stick around long enough to talk to reporters after the game.
Last year on Thanksgiving, Suh was ejected for stomping on the right arm of Green Bay offensive lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith and was suspended for two games. He has been fined in previous seasons for roughing up quarterbacks: Cincinnati's Andy Dalton, Chicago's Jay Cutler and Cleveland's Jake Delhomme.
Schaub stayed in the game, and was 29 of 48 for 315 yards with a 9-yard TD to Owen Daniels that tied it at 14 late in the first half. He also threw an interception.
Houston's Andre Johnson had nine receptions for 188 yards.
Detroit's Matthew Stafford was 31 of 61 for 441 yards with two TDs - tiebreaking scores to Calvin Johnson and Mike Thomas in the second quarter. It wasn't enough.
``We got what we deserved,'' Stafford said. ``We didn't capitalize on our chances.''
NOTES: Lions OT Jeff Backus (right hamstring) was inactive, ending his 186-game starting streak. ... Houston LB Brooks Reed (left groin) and OT Derek Newton (knee) were injured during the game.

The Town of Niagara Town Board on Tuesday voted to begin the SEQR (State Environmental Quality Review) process and take all necessary steps to have lead agency status on the planned expansion of Fashion Outlets mall.
"We feel we are the most interested because the property is in our town," said Town Supervisor Steve Richards. Taking lead agency status would ensure the town is kept informed and has some control over what happens with the expansion, he said.
Councilman Danny Sklarski commented that the town taking lead agency status is extremely important, because the $71 million expansion project will affect "not only our town, but Niagara County as a whole."
While the Town Board was meeting, in another room at Town Hall, representatives of mall owners Macerich Niagara LLC and mall officials and their architects and engineers were meeting with the town's Planning Board.
"They did an excellent presentation and answered quite a few questions," Planning Board Chairman Barbara Hathaway said.
She said her group gave approval of the preliminary site plan for the project and provided a list of suggestions that mall and company officials can consider before coming back to the Planning Board with more details.
The final site plan will have to be approved by both the town's Planning Board and Zoning Board before going to the Town Board.
The new retail space of about 175,000 square feet would be attached to the existing mall and use some of the former Sabre Park trailer park property, now owned by Macerich. The expansion plan also includes additional parking.
Macerich also is looking for a 15-year graduated property tax abatement plan from the town's Industrial Development Agency.
In other matters:
•The board approved a new hiring policy requiring all new town employees and volunteers providing services to the town recreation and youth programs to undergo background checks.
The board also delayed its vote on summer recreation staff until its next regular meeting on April 16, by which time the new background checks should be completed.
The change was made in the wake of news that a state audit in Amherst showed that town did not have a written policy on the matter.
•The board scheduled a public hearing at 7 p.m. April 16 on the proposed amendment to the town's zoning code affecting the commercial business district. Richards said the current code was established about 40 years ago and is antiquated.
•The board approved the hiring of a new part-time police officer, Victor C. Muto. Muto, a Lewiston resident, previously worked for the Niagara Falls Police Department before being hired to work with the New York State Courts office in Niagara Falls.
The board also thanked part-time police officer John L. Marcyan for his service as they accepted his resignation due to other professional commitments.
•The board approved the request of Joe Cecconi's Chrysler Complex at 2380 Military Road to place temporary storage trailers and tents on its grounds during renovation and remodeling at its facility. The board also OK'd the request of Mark DeLorenzo, 7800 Porter Road, for a special use permit for vehicle repairs and sales.
•The board approved several resolutions from Police Chief James Suitor for budgeted new computer, lighting and emergency equipment for the town's new police vehicle fleet.
•The board approved the request of the Niagara County Social Services Department to hold its annual Kidz-n-Kites Day on Saturday, Sept. 14, at Veterans Memorial Park.
•The board authorized Highway Superintendent Robert E. Herman and three highway employees to attend a paving school at the Road Institute in Chambersburg, Pa., from May 21 to 24, at a cost not to exceed $4,500. Approval also was given for Suitor to attend the Whelen OEM factory training for police emergency equipment being held this week in Chester, Conn.

Value is at least partially a function of scarcity. We covet gold because there is only so much of it in the world. We amplify the importance of romance by telling ourselves that there is only "one right person" out there for us. We seek access to exclusive country clubs or social organizations for a sense that we're breathing rarefied air. If you can't have it and I can, I feel better about myself.
What's curious about a society that places such a premium on exclusivity in a material sense is how little value we give it in a moral one. These days, everything from discussing your eating disorder on national television to launching a protest on a college campus is lauded as an instance of "bravery" or "heroism." But can that really be? If everyone is courageous, doesn't that really mean no one is?
A recent New York Times column by Salman Rushdie (the novelist most famous for being subject to a fatwa by the Ayatollah Khomeini after his 1988 novel, "The Satanic Verses," was derided as blasphemous against Islam) embodied precisely this lack of reasonable distinctions. In the otherwise laudable piece, Rushdie laments the lack of respect for "moral courage," pointing to inspiring examples ranging from the "tank man" who faced down Chinese forces in Tiananmen Square to a former governor of the Pakistani province of Punjab murdered by Islamists for opposing a blasphemy law. So far, so good.
Where Rushdie takes leave of his senses is in also listing the Occupy movement (which was "much maligned") and the American leftist intellectual Noam Chomsky (who had "the courage it takes up to stand up and bellow [his critiques] into the face of American power"), as examples of similar moral fortitude.
Pure and utter rubbish.
The moral courage required of a single man standing helplessly athwart the Chinese army in Tiananmen Square, his martyrdom a matter of mathematical certainty, bears no relationship to the behavior of an unwashed undergraduate sporting a cardboard sign reading "Corporations are not people." Whatever species of "courage" Chomsky (a global celebrity) embodies is not the same as that of Salman Taseer, the Punjabi governor whose stance against the blasphemy law resulted in him being shot 26 times.
Closer to home – and in a much more pedestrian setting – we're seeing the "hero" distinction thrown around this week for Jason Collins, the NBA athlete who became the first active player in major professional team sports to come out of the closet. Collins' candor is admirable. It's become obvious in the past few months – particularly when Manti Te'o was dogged by questions about his sexuality after revelations that his supposedly dead girlfriend was the product of an elaborate social media hoax – that the sporting world was going to need a nudge to publicly accept the reality of gay athletes. Collins' example should be applauded, not least because it increases the prospects that the next time an athlete comes out, it will be (as it should be) a nonevent.
As important as that gesture is, does it constitute "heroism" when a marginal basketball player with no preexisting public notoriety chooses the final days of his career – not to mention a time when social acceptance of homosexuality is at an all-time high – to come out? And ends up gracing a magazine cover as a result? Isn't that distinction better reserved for those who stand up against the treatment of homosexuals in places like Iran, where progress on gay rights means that the penalty for homosexual conduct has been reduced from mandatory capital punishment to being flogged 100 times?
Our most meaningful words ought to be reserved for our most meaningful acts. The people who ran towards the explosions in Boston; the first responders who climbed a stairway to death in the World Trade Center; the martyrs who give their lives every day to defend human rights around the world – these are our heroes. For lesser deeds, lesser words will have to do.

Frank Lampard is on the verge of joining Manchester City on loan, according to reports.
The England midfielder signed for City's sister outfit New York City FC this summer, ending 13 trophy-laden years at Chelsea.
With the Major League Soccer season not starting until the spring, there was speculation that Lampard would head to Melbourne City, the third club owned by the City Football Group, on a short-term deal.
But reports emerged on Friday night that the 36-year-old was set to move to the Etihad on a six-month deal to help Manuel Pellegrini's men in the defence of their Barclays Premier League title.
Lampard was unveiled in New York on July 24 and admitted he was eager to keep himself fit ahead of his American adventure.
"I'm going to keep fit, that's the main thing. How I do that is not clear yet," he said.
"I'm going to sit round with people at the club and sort that out."
Lampard began his career at West Ham but moved to Stamford Bridge in 2001, making 649 appearances and becoming the Blues' all-time top scorer with 211 goals.
A spell in the Premier League would also be likely to help Lampard extend his England career, which has so far seen him win 106 caps, scoring 29 goals.

Poke Acupuncture: Bringing Together Needles and Design
When I received an e-mail from a friend suggesting I check out the design of an acupuncture clinic, I'll admit, I didn't have high expectations to find great design in a medical office. However, I was completely blown away when I saw for myself just how every piece was thoughtfully chosen and well balanced within the entire space. As I sat in the waiting room I felt like I was sitting in someone's living room enjoying an intimate conversation.
The owner of Poke Acupuncture, Russell Brown, tells us that the design reflects his personal style. When he opened the clinic he didn't want to pretend that he was the typical acupuncturist. Instead, he wanted to create a space where people could visit, feel comfortable, and appreciate the creativity of the surroundings and the art of acupuncture.

Pharmaceutical business intelligence provider knocks down I/O bottleneck and multi-threads for a 16X more powerful system with Fusion ioMemory™ PCIe cards.
The Challenge
IntegriChain's flagship product offering, Demand Network AnalyticsTM (DNA) helps big pharma companies aggregate and analyze their inventory and sales to better understand their business. Founded five years ago, IntegriChain has eight of the top 12 US pharmaceutical companies using its DNA tools. IntegriChain processes over 45 percent of US channel data (by dollar volume) including cleansing, correlation, and delivery to their customers, who then slice and dice it.
As DNA's customer base grew, Senior Director of Data Management, David Dunn found that the company's MySQL-based systems were reaching their limits. David explained, "Most of our products generate workloads that consist of small transactions in high volume and high frequency. For example, one of our customers generates 142 million transactions every month on queries that analyze historical data. The 450 IOPS capability of hard disks just couldn't keep up."
IntegriChain needed a solution that could help DNA with the following:
David Dunn,
Senior Director of Data Management, IntegriChain
The SanDisk Solution
End-to-End Solution Support from the Experts
David explained how Dell's staff helped him choose the best servers, processors, and Fusion ioMemoryTM devices to meet the company's ambitious objectives: "Dell was fantastic to work with, giving us servers with the compute power to meet our processing needs. They connected us with knowledgeable SanDisk® support that helped us implement the Fusion ioMemoryTM ioDrive® devices to optimally use Dell server resources. The end result was a very happy customer."
Painlessly Blowing Away the I/O Bottleneck
In its own case study on IntegriChain, Dell described how combining Fusion ioMemoryTM devices with upgraded Dell servers and Intel processors resulted in a drop-in solution that achieved three times the performance with 30% lower latency.
"We tried an in-memory database on a Dell 910, but the application had a formatting and encryption pipe that spiked the CPU at 2.3 GHz," David said. "The processor on the Dell 710 was much faster and Fusion ioMemory enabled the application to use these CPU cycles more effectively. The test job we ran completed three times faster, reducing the job time from 9 minutes to 3 minutes."
Putting CPUs Back to Work
David then described IntegriChain's experience after deploying the SanDisk powered Dell systems into production. "After seeing the proof-of-concept results, we realized implementing ioDrive was an easy hardware fix to some of our other I/O bottlenecks," David said. "We deployed ioDrive Duo into our ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) engine. Immediately, this cut a process from 37.5 hours to 13.5. Further adjustments to the ETL software brought the run time to less than 7 hours." This chart shows results of one of their largest ingest jobs.
But IntegriChain was just getting started. David continued, "Our previous system had met its architectural limits. The ioDrive gave us a drop-in solution that improved performance by three times. This bought us the time to properly re-architect our system to be multi-threaded."
The upgraded application, combined with Fusion ioMemory's ability to give multiple cores simultaneous access to the flash, delivered astounding results. David said, "Now, not only do jobs run faster, but we can use the six processor cores to run six jobs simultaneously, fully using the multicore CPUs. This essentially improved our overall throughput by over 16 times."
Delivering More Products and Services on the Same Hardware
Upgrading their application to put multicore CPUs to work had an unexpected, but significant benefit to the ROI on IntegriChain's purchase. "We initially bought capacity based on single-threaded computing," David said, "but after multi- threading, we found we could do much more with the same hardware. Since deploying ioDrive, we have expanded from a single product delivered in 37 hours to delivering three different product spaces a week for each of our twenty customers— all on the same hardware."
Performance with a Purpose: Better Customer Intelligence
IntegriChain's goal for DNA was to make it a single source that customers could use to quickly and accurately view and generate reports for all of their product distribution channels. David summarized how IntegriChain is using DNA's lightning- fast performance to help its customers, "Jobs we used to deliver monthly, we now deliver weekly—and are looking at delivering daily. We can now return views to every customer we have within a three-hour window, under any load. This enables our customers to be better informed so they can respond more quickly and intelligently to the needs of the market, and gives them a competitive advantage."
Implementing Fusion ioMemory gave IntegriChain the following benefits:
"The platform's capability continues to expand our ability to deliver," David said. "The ioDrive devices have enabled us to generate full ETLs on customer data for four different products—and we have more products coming to the market."

Iron Brigade "Settlement Savior" Achievement Tips (Survival mode)
I just got the achievement for this (make it to wave 30 on Settlement); it was pretty tough! Thanks to rabies for the basic loadout/strategy.
You can do this solo, but I played with a friend of mine. The difficulty scales, but I figured with both of us being fairly good players this was the best bet. The beginning is the hardest — once you get some sniper turrets set up, you'll be gaining tons of scrap and won't have to run all over the place, so don't worry if it feels like you're getting slaughtered at the start. By wave 15 our green base had only a sliver of health left, but we made it!
Trench loadout:
At least one person should have:
Core: HoneyChurch IV with Sprint+ Legs
Weapon: Albert Sniper Rifle (Pierce+)
Emplacements: Dampening Generator, Repair Crane, Sniper Turret, Shredder Turret
My friend used a bigger Trench with heavy weapons. Use whatever you're comfortable with. He had a collection pod. If you're playing solo, you should probably swap the repair crane for the collection pod. I mostly stayed up near the green base, and my friend stayed down near orange. Because I had the sniper rifle, I was able to help him out from up there.
- Start with all shredder turrets. They're cheap, and at the beginning you need all the help you can get. More is better. Don't waste scrap on other stuff yet (maybe a collection pod after a few waves).
- Scrap disappears after a while, so grab it when you can, and eventually build collection pods.
- Put emplacements on top of "trees." I think you need to be on the lowest level for this to work (don't be on a peninsula). Knobs shouldn't be able to kill them this way, but watch for Burst Transmitters.
- Build lots of sniper turrets once you start getting more scrap, and protect them from knobs with shredder turrets. Place some snipers at the end of the peninsulas, and up by the green decoy.
- Focus all your fire on the Volt Dropper if you can! They do a lot of damage and ignore dampening generators, so you need to take them out as quickly as possible. Sniper turrets are what you need here, so I hope you've built a few by this point. When you fire at the Volt be sure to lead the target (aim a little in front of it when you fire).
- Save the decoys for waves 25+ (as long as you can wait, basically).
- Eventually build a repair crane somewhere in the middle, but not until you have plenty of scrap.
- Turrets are dumb, so kill Jacobs first, as soon as you can.
- If you're using the Albert sniper rifle, try to line up multiple enemies when you can because of the pierce ability. If Jacobs are protecting an enemy, shoot through the enemy to hit the Jacobs; don't wait for a clear shot.
We made it to wave 42 with this method, and would have gotten further if we had tried. After we got the achievement we relaxed and mostly let the turrets do the work, so eventually some enemies slipped by.

For Legrand Filles et Fils, Jean Orliac looks back over the twenty years he, and his wife Marie-Thérèse, have spent building Domaine L'Hortus.
In the beginning there were no vines, only some abandoned terraces and rocky slopes nestled between the dramatic cliffs of Pic St Loup and the Montagne de L'Hortus. Entranced by the idyllic setting, and convinced the terroir had potential, Jean (whose grandfather was also winegrower) and his wife moved to la Combe de Fambétou in the 70s.
They started from the ground up, building everything from the winery to a family home. Over the next twenty years the couple devoted every weekend and holiday to clearing the terrain and planting their 60ha vineyard. It took ten years before they were ready to release their first vintage in 1990.
His range of wines: red, white and rosé, the 'Grande Cuvee' Domaine L'Hortus, second label wines from the estate and also grapes and wines carefully selected from neighbouring vineyards (Bergerie de L'Hortus) are renowned worldwide and have played a major role in building international recognition for the wines of Pic St Loup.
Jean and Marie-Thérèse's four children, Marie, François, Yves and Martin have now taken up the helm and continue their parent's work with equal passion and determination.
Come and be tempted by our delicious seared filets of red mullet (sourced from Saint-Jean-de-Luz) served with carrots, red onion jam and cocoa bean sauce.
Our wine recommendation to enhance this surprising and exquisite dish is the "Vieilles Vignes" 2011 du Domaine Perrot-Minot' from Burgundy.
To see the full list of dishes and suggested wine pairings on offer this week, and to browse this month's wine list:
Thierry Germain, winegrower at Domaine des Roches Neuves, was at Caves Legrands for our 'Tuesday Tasting' on 11th February.
He joined Domaine Roches Neuves in 1993, switching to biodynamic cultivation in early 2000s - obtaining Biodyvin certification in 2002 - following an encounter with Francois Bouchet, a consultant and author of a textbook on bio-dynamic viticulture which taught him the importance of plant husbandry.
More than just a passing 'fad', biodynamics is, according to Thierry, a philosophy rooted in all living things. Whilst he concedes "biodynamics is not an assurance of quality", it has transformed his perception and understanding of plants. His yields may be altered, but so too have the balance of sugars, alcohol and acid in his wines.
These choices bore fruit when, in 2004, Thierry Germain was featured as one of Wine Spectator's Top 100 Winemakers in the world and named 'France's best winemaker' by Revue de Vin de France in 2011.
See the video (in french) :
On 4th February, Caves Legrands welcomed Frédéric Faye, director of Château Figeac and owner of Domaine Blandine de Brier Manoncourt, for the 'Tuesday Tasting'. It was an opportunity to enjoy an exceptional vertical tasting of 10 vintages and discover more about Château Figeac.
See the video (in french) :
Every year since 1945, a great artist has illustrated the label of Château Mouton Rothschild. Thus, the most famous names in contemporary art are brought together in a collection to which a new work is added each year.
The commission for the illustration of the 2014 vintage was given to the English painter David Hockney, born in 1937. Influenced by Pop Art and a master of the most up-to-date techniques, from acrylics to the iPad, he nevertheless falls within the figurative tradition, especially portraiture, painting people and objects in bright, contrasting colours.
David Hockney was a personal friend of Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, who died in 2014 and to whom his drawing pays tribute. Haloed by vibrant lines of force, signifying both emotion and wonder, two glasses, one empty, the other full, tell the story of feverish expectation and the constantly renewed miracle of the birth of a great wine: Château Mouton Rothschild, of which Baroness Philippine was for so long the guiding spirit.
The Legrand's team will be glad to welcome you on :
- Thursday 5th of May from 10:00am to 7:30pm
The shop will be closed on Monday 16th of May.
Thanks for your understanding.

This week's Tuesday Tasting played to a packed audience with all eyes riveted on Burgundy and its mythical terroirs. Christophe Roumier, come specially from Chambolle Musigny to be with us, hosted a spectacular horizontal tasting of vintage 2011 followed by a vertical tasting of Chambolle Musigny, Les Cras, 1er Cru (2010 to 2005) culminating with two Corton Charlemagne (2007 & 2011).
Representing the third generation, having joined his father in 1981, Christophe adopts an 'organic' approach to viticulture, having been inspired by esteemed friends Dominique Lafon and Frédéric Lafarge, who were early converts to the field. Whilst he does not claim to be strictly organic in very way, he passionately believes in many it of its principals, such as limiting the use of chemical sprays, preferring instead to plough the vines, which he has found results in more diverse and abundant vegetation, healthier grapes and better extraction potential in his wines.
It this approach, together with conducting his vinifications with as little intervention as possible, which in the end allows him achieve the most pure expression of terroir in his wines.
Yesterday, our 'Tuesday Tasting' focused on Italy. Laura Collobiano guided us on a journey to Valgiano, her 60ha domaine (20ha of which fall in the appellation of Colline Lucchesi). Located in northern Tuscany, between the Appenine Mountains and the coast, this fertile oasis is farmed biodynamically.
The assembled guests were all utterly seduced by her wines - Palistorti red, Palistorti white and the Tenuta di Valgiano red tasted across several vintages - which she describes as "a liquid expression of Valgiano and its landscapes".
See the video (in french) :
Bruno Lorenzon, winegrower in Mercurey (Burgundy), visited Caves Legrand for a tasting showcasing his 2012 vintage.
A vintage he describes as "athletic" capable of "keeping pace with Usain Bolt". An apt metaphor from this rugby and cycling fanatic who works his wines like a sports coach. He proudly presented his Champ-Martin, Pièce 15 and Pièce 13, which beguile with their balance, elegance and vibrant acidity. He confided in us that it was "the finest vintage he'd ever made", one he dreams about making every year.

Bears bolster lineup with transfers from Alabama and Vanderbilt.
WACO – The Baylor women's tennis team will have at least three new faces next season, after head coach Joey Scrivano added Alex Clay, Victoria Kisialeva and Alex Leatu to his roster for the 2012-13 season.
"The thing so far with all three of them is they are very hungry to prove themselves and they are eager to develop," Scrivano said. "That is a great formula for individual success. Anytime we get recruiting classes that have a chip on their shoulder, we usually do really good things."
Clay, who comes to Baylor after two seasons at Alabama, collected 13 singles wins in her sophomore season. In 2011, she went 22-10 with 14 dual match victories. Her best win came against 35th-raned Alex Cercone of Florida in straight sets. Before attending Alabama, Clay was ranked No. 15 recruit in the nation, No. 7 in the Southeast, and No. 2 in the state of Georgia by TennisRecruiting.net.
"Alex is a really good ball striker," Scrivano said. "She plays a style of tennis that we really like by taking the ball early and being aggressive. We were really excited to get her, so late in the recruiting process."
The youngest of the three newcomers, Kisialeva, is a redshirt-freshman, who spent one year at the Belorussian State University of Physical Culture in her native Belarus. She was the Belarus National Champion in both the under-12 and under-16 age categories. Kisialeva also played for the Belorussian junior Fed Cup Team from 2008-11. She has one ITF junior tournament win under her belt, plus five tournament final appearances in singles. In doubles, she has eight tournament wins and has made it to the finals of an event on eight other occasions.
"Victoria has a very good junior background," Scrivano said. "She fits the mold of a player that is already very accomplished, but wants to come to Baylor to get even better."
Leatu played the No. 1 singles position for Vanderbilt during her freshman year and went 18-16. This past season, she battled through a shoulder injury and had surgery upon her arrival to Baylor. She will be ready to get back on the court in the spring.
"Leatu has a solid all-around game," Scrivano said. "We feel like she has a base that we can really build on. She has proven that she can play at the No. 1 spot and have success. On a team with so much youth, any proven player is going to help a lot."
Scrivano expects to add at least one more player before the dual-match season starts in January.
The Bears will start fall individual play on Sept. 19 when select players travel to the Midland Invitational in Midland.

Lubick posts first double-double as Georgetown snaps St. John's winning streak with 68-56 win
WASHINGTON – Nate Lubick scored a career-high 16 points and Georgetown took advantage of an off-day from the Big East's second-leading scorer in a 68-56 win over St. John's on Saturday afternoon.
Lubick, who entered the game shooting 70 percent (23 of 33) from the field over the previous five games, hit 8 of 10 shots and added 10 rebounds as the Hoyas (16-4, 6-3 Big East) won their fourth straight and sixth in seven games.
The Red Storm, meanwhile, shot just 32 percent (20 of 63) from the field, and leading scorer D'Angelo Harrison, who entered the game second in the conference averaging 19.7 points, was limited to two points and missed all nine of his field goal attempts.
JaKarr Sampson had 18 points and eight rebounds to lead St. John's (14-8, 6-4), which could draw no closer than seven in the second half and had its five-game winning streak snapped.

word order emphasis
Posted: Mon Apr 30, 2012 6:40 pm
Whhelock does not touch on this to any great degree and so I have learned the importance of word order regarding emphasis from other sources. Once I learned this I found my English to Latin translations in the workbook matched the answer key most of the time. When I don't do a translation correctly I don't know if I am missing Wheelock's intentions or if, in these cases, the word really is not important and Wheelock is just demonstrating that there are indeed times when word order is a matter of free choice.

Hello everyone,
Being an expat in Lesotho can turn out to be a wonderful human, social or professional adventure... with potential moments of nostalgia and homesickness along the way.
What are your personal tips to prevent homesickness?
How do you deal with such feelings?
Are there shops or stores offering products from your home country in Lesotho? Or maybe venues with music and ambiance from your homeland?
Thanks for sharing your experience,

The BBC has confirmed that long running rumours of a new BBC Micro are in fact true. The project, tentatively named BBC Micro 2, is not a new hardware platform like the original. Instead, it's a cross-platform IDE based on Eclipse, the popular open source software development environment.
The BBC plans to release the software on Linux, OS X, and Windows, as well having support for the upcoming Raspberry Pi. The point of the original Micro was to bring computing into schools, teaching a new generation of kids how to code. This new project is designed to do the same, but clearly as part of the user interfaces people associate with and use in their day-to-day lives.
An early build was formally shown running on Raspberry Pi at the Hack to the Future event over the weekend, hosted by Our Lady's Catholic High School in Preston, Lancashire.
Raspberry Pi initially dismissed these claims on Twitter as a hoax, apparently caused by confusion over existing projects with the BBC. Since then, event organizer Alan O'Donahoe and Rasperry Pi have managed to straighten out the facts.
There is no release date currently attached to BBC Micro 2, however there is a website for the project that will be updated in the near future.

New Car Review Video
2013 Toyota Highlander: New Car Review - Video
It's easy to get lost in the wide world of midsize crossovers. But the 2013 Toyota Highlander remains a real standout against some very capable competition. The Highlander hasn't seen any earth-shattering changes for this model year, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The old adage, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" definitely applies in this case.
The Highlander shares the same platform as the Toyota Camry, which means it's well-built and delivers a secure driving experience. Unlike with some crossovers, the exterior styling is conservative. And there's a new trim level this year called Plus that's slotted between the Base and SE. At the top end of the range is the Highlander Limited. As with any other vehicle or model, the higher the trim level, the more standard features you get.
Toyota's slick Entune mobile-app interface is only available, for instance, on the more expensive SE and Limited models. But we applaud Toyota for making Bluetooth technology and USB with iPod connectivity standard on every Highlander, along with a new, high-def 6.1-inch touchscreen.
In terms of cabin quality, the Highlander's interior materials are mediocre, with too many hard plastic surfaces. However, the Highlander offers plenty of space and versatility for people-moving. A practical feature is the Center Stow middle seat that easily converts the second row from a bench to two captain's chairs with an aisle in between. There's also a third-row seat in the Highlander, but it's intended for kids, not adults. With the third-row seat in place, cargo room is limited, but with the second- and third-row seats folded, there's more than 95 cu ft of storage space.
The Base and Highlander Plus get a standard 2.7-liter inline 4-cylinder that's good for 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. The only transmission available for these trims is a 6-speed automatic driving the front wheels. If you can, go for the available 270-hp 3.5-liter V6 with a 5-speed automatic. It's smoother than the inline 4-cylinder, has a lot more power, can tow up to 5,000 pounds and comes with optional all-wheel drive.
Like most crossovers, the Highlander drives like a car. It offers a soft, comfortable ride and a suspension that's more suitable for soaking up bumps than rugged off-road excursions.
Surprisingly, the more powerful V6 actually yields fuel economy comparable to the inline 4-cylinder: 18 miles per gallon city/24 mpg hwy with the V6 versus 20 mpg city/25 mpg hwy with the 4-cylinder. The all-wheel drive V6 drops to 17 mpg city/22 mpg hwy.
The Base Highlander costs around $29,000 before options. At the other end, the Limited model starts at almost $38,000. But try the Hyundai Santa Fe, Mazda CX-9 and Kia Sorento before making a decision. They all compare well to the Highlander.
The 2013 Toyota Highlander is roomy, well-equipped, easy to drive and now loaded with standard technology on the upper trims. If you take our advice and choose that silky-smooth V6 while reserving the third row for the little ones, the Highlander will definitely earn your vote.

Pop! And, crash...
Friday night, we had a lot of wine, preceded by a lot of champagne. A bottle of NV Raymond Boulard Tradition Brut Nature opened the door for our debauchery: steely pinot excellence. Next up was the old standby I am always glad to repop, NV Pierre Moncuit Grand Cru "Moncuit-Delos." Then we went through a bottle of NV Charles Cazanove, which I found too common and indifferently dosaged.
*Cue sinister music*
I had put my favorite to chill in the freezer, because Sara was going to be late and we were running out of everything bubbles.
NV Fallet-Prévostat Extra-Brut. Now that, which I had first tasted last week, is one heady, vinous blanc de blancs from Avize. I was dying to taste it again.
This morning, of course, two days later I found it. (See picture, above.)
On a more positive note, I got to test run the Zaltos, which were thin enough to be like a blade against one's lip and gave an incredibly expressive and sharp take on the champagne in the glass.
But it's hard to judge calmly with so much banter and commotion (not that I have anything against friends and revelry... au contraire). So my new party line (Arnaud, take note) is that I need to try another bottle of champagne in the very near future, just to confirm and hone my first impressions.
And not be such a dolt with the chilling method.

OUCH!!!! That happened to me once, so from then on whenever I try to cool a bottle down in the freezer I always set a timer.
Can't wait to hear about the Zaltos...

I have had the same experience. But I actually heard this deep, muffled "THUD!" at the moment the bottle broke. Very annoying!

Lesson learned. I have taken to only using an ice bucket with water.

IMO Fallet-Prevostat is quite a find. It's being run by an elderly couple and they make only two cuvees, both Blanc-de-Blanc, brut and extra-brut. Also, its a fun place to visit, as we tasted their wines together with the local gendarmerie. Not surpisingly no website, but good prices.
Cheers, Paul

Mink are mainly nocturnal, emerging from their dens to feed at night on a diet of small animals including water vole, birds, frogs, molluscs, crabs, fish and insects (5). This range of prey, hunted in water, on land, in swamps and burrows is considerably greater than the range of more specialised mustelids like otters and weasels. This carries both costs and benefits, as a specialised hunter will be better adapted than a generalist at exploiting a certain prey, but a generalist, like the mink, has the advantage of being able to hunt different prey should one type become scarce (6). This mammal is a wanderer, occupying large home ranges (up to 15 km of river) and using rarely the same den. The female usually stays close to the den, unless a shortage of food drives it to find another location (2). They lead solitary lifestyles, except during the breeding season, from February to March (7), when they seek out mates using a repertoire of sounds from hisses and screams to chuckling calls. Males first seek out the females whose territories overlap their own, before searching further afield (6). Mating is often preceded by very aggressive encounters between the two sexes. The females' gestation period is between 5 – 10 weeks, the birth being in the spring when there is an abundance of food and shelter (2). The female will give birth to 2 – 7 young per litter and raises them alone in a den, suckling them for 5 – 6 weeks (4). Minks are born blind and helpless, and so depend on parental care until they are weaned at about 10 weeks, leaving the den after 12 – 18 weeks. They reach maturity after one year, and live for about 6 years in the wild and up to 12 years in captivity (2).

HEY! HEY! Did you celebrate Valentine Day? I always celebrate in the same way year after year with a red jello heart with mixed fruit in it. We have been married 61 years and there have been very few valentine days when we didn't have a red jello heart. I can truthfully say we are still sweethearts because my husband doesn't need a special day to show his love, nor do I.
I have been recuperating with this broken hip for 3 months now and I know I couldn't have come along this far without a loving partner.
When I was recuperating there were many days I didn't feel like doing a thing, but then Virg noticed I was getting e-mails from a couple of my nieces and I wasn't answering them. He hiked my computer chair up and got me communicating with friends and relatives and it has been a good thing. After all, you can just watch so many reruns of Dalton Abby. The series 3 on Masterpiece ends Sunday night and I know they'll leave everything up in the air and I'll have to wait a year for part 4. For someone who has never liked soap operas, I'm hooked on this.
I'd like to pass something along that was sent to me on the internet it's called The Dash. We have all been to funerals where the minister refers to the dates of birth and then to the date of death. First comes the date of his or her birth, but what matters the most of all was the dash between those years to the end. For that dash represents all the time they spent on Earth and now those who loved them know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not how much we own, the cars, the house, the cash. What matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash. So think about this long and hard, are there things you would like to change? For you never know how much time is left. (You could be at dash mid-range). If we could just slow down enough to consider what's true and real and always try to understand the way other people feel and be less quick to anger and show appreciation more, and love the people in our lives like we never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect, and more often wear a smile remembering that this last dash might only last a little while.
So when your eulogy is being read with your life's actions to rehash. Would you be proud of the things they say about how you spent your dash?
This month is the month for a good dessert, but most of us hate to spend a great deal of time on a fancy dessert, so keep it simple.
1 can cherry pie filling
1 1/2 cup Bisquick
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
2 Tablespoons margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
Put filling in an 8X8 baking dish. Mix remaining ingredients together and pour over pie filling.
Bake 30 minutes in 350 degree oven. Best served warm, topped with some milk.
"May you be guided through your Dash of Life."

Italy takes 2-1 lead over Canada in Davis Cup QF
Vancouver, BC – Daniele Bracciali and Paolo Lorenzi were doubles winners in the best-of-five 2013 Davis Cup quarterfinal between Italy and Canada in Vancouver.
Bracciali and Lorenzi dropped the first two sets before rallying for a 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 15-13 win over the tandem of Daniel Nestor and Vasek Pospisil.
Nestor and Pospisil served up 28 aces, but the Italian duo converted 5-of-9 break points.
The Italians are captained by Corrado Barazzutti, while team Canada is led by Martin Laurendeau. This is the first-ever Davis Cup meeting between the two nations.
The Canada-Italy winner will meet the Serbia-USA victor in the semifinals in September.

I'm new here, and on Dhamma Wheel. I'm not a Buddhist (I'm kind of agnostic, I guess), and I don't really know a lot about Buddhism, except some good basic stuff I read over at Buddhanet. There are a couple of questions I'd like to ask, generally along the lines of how peaceful a religion Buddhism is, whether Buddhism makes it easier for it's followers to be on good terms with people, and to what extent it helps it's followers to feel contented with life, how much does meditation help, and such like. However, I am finding it more difficult than I expected to draft such questions, strangely enough. Perhaps that's because I don't really know enough to ask such questions effectively.
I'll probably make a few posts, and see what happens, if that's OK

Way way back before we had kids, I remember having an especially contentious fight with my husband over business trips. It was a ridiculous argument, as the business travel was entirely RHETORICAL at that point. I just wanted to make it clear to my husband, he of the revolting work ethic, that I didn't want to be married to someone who traveled all the time. "What kind of life would that be!" I wailed at my husband who was, no doubt, tasking every muscle in his body to resist rolling his eyes. "We're supposed to be TOGEEEETHEEEER!"
Fast forward six years and two children later and I'm just thankful my husband still HAS his job. A job that as of recently requires full weeks away from us. Next week, for the third time in five months, Phillip will fly away to a suburb of a big Southern city while I stay home with the kids, Monday through Friday, all by ourselves. WOE.
But you know, by this point I'm feeling like quite the Business Trip Expert and I thought I'd share my Survival Tips. Ready?
1. Don't cook! Sure, some of you love to cook, and it was recommended to me that I try out new recipes for fun while my husband is away. But you know what? Not having to think about what to make for dinner every night is probably the best part of daddy not coming home after work. I can happily subsist on bread, wine and the occasional (okay, nightly) slice of chocolate cake. And my kids don't eat real food anyway. We eat grilled cheese, apple slices, chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, pizza, canned soup, French toast and cereal and we all go to bed happy with a minimal amount of effort on my part. WIN.
2. Milk it! Do your friends know your husband is leaving you all alone with the children for days on end? I highly recommend you make sure they do. I have one friend who invites the kids and me over for dinner one night during the business trip weeks. We show up as soon as the kids wake up from their afternoon naps and we don't leave until I'm sure they'll fall asleep in the car on the way home and I can just deposit them in their beds. Me = Spoiled! I have other friends who come over after the kids are in bed - they bring food! And drink! And conversation! It's truly an excellent time. There's a lot to be said for being pitied.
3. Treats! Are there three more nights of feeding the kids, bathing them, and doing the bedtime routine all by your lonesome? Well OBVIOUSLY you deserve a present. Don't wait for your husband to hand you the chocolate bar he picked up in the airport gift shop. Take your kids to the bookstore and finally buy that book you always thumb through when they're playing at the train table. In bed with your laptop trolling through Etsy? Buy that item you favorited the day before. Retail therapy cures loneliness! You heard it here!
4. You're in charge! That means you can watch all the Glee you want, dominate the Netflix queue, talk on the phone all night and find out what it feels like to leave YOUR socks all over the house. It also means you don't have to factor in another person's opinion when it comes to a misbehaving kid or what time they go to bed. It wasn't until my husband went on his first trip that I realized how focused I am on his needs, as well as the kids'. On business trip weeks, when the kids finally go to bed, those evenings are MINE. Which isn't to say I don't miss my husband and prefer he were home, but it's not so bad having a few nights all to yourself either. Sex and the City marathon anyone?
I've heard a lot of great and practical suggestions too. Take that extra time to work on a specific project - getting that scrapbook finished, finishing up some work on the house, purging the basement or garage. I have to say, that's probably the best and most productive use of your alone time, and I've made some big plans for getting some writing done while Phillip is gone next week. But honestly? I'll probably just catch up on the season finales I missed and the giant stack of Entertainment Weeklies sitting in my living room. And when he gets home I'll treat myself to a nice pedicure because that week of TV watching and Entertainment Weekly reading was really hard on me and I need some alone time! HA.
How do you survive business trips?

A wreck on U.S. 278 caused congestion throughout Bluffton.
The wreck, which occurred a little east of the entrance to St. Gregory the Great Catholic Church just after 7 a.m., caused police to close eastbound 278, diverting traffic to Bluffton Parkway via Buckwalter Parkway.
Sgt. Joe Babkiewicz, spokesman for the Bluffton Police Department, said one man was killed in the wreck.
According to Babkiewicz, the man was driving a white Nissan Maxima going westbound on U.S. 278 when he lost control of his car and veered across the median into oncoming traffic.
"One vehicle got out of the way, and he collided with a utility truck," Babkiewicz said.
The name of the driver was not released.
Three people were in the utility truck, and two of them were sent to Coastal Carolina Hospital with minor injuries.
U.S. 278 eastbound reopened at about 9 a.m., Babkiewicz said.
Bluffton Police Department is investigating the fatality. The Beaufort County Sheriff Office, the S.C. Highway Patrol and Bluffton Township Fire Department assisted with the wreck.

What is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), also known as Stein-Leventhal syndrome or functional ovarian hyperandrogenism, is a complex disorder that usually begins during puberty and affects women of reproductive age. Polycystic ovary syndrome is characterized in most cases by multiple small cysts that develop on the ovaries. Many women with PCOS also experience a variety of symptoms that are related to the underlying metabolic and hormonal disorders that are associated with PCOS and include:
The optimal management of women with PCOS should involve a multidisciplinary team of health care professionals to manage the various aspects of the syndrome which may include:
Knowledge is Critical when Dealing with a Life-Altering Condition such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with PCOS, it's critical to learn everything you possibly can about this condition so that you can make informed decisions about your treatment. That's why we created the Medifocus Guidebook on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, a comprehensive 181 page patient Guidebook that contains vital information about PCOS that you won't find anywhere in a single source.
The Medifocus Guidebook on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome starts out with a detailed overview of the condition and quickly imparts fundamentally important information about PCOS, including:
The long-term health risks for women with PCOS, which include:
Understanding the Standard Treatments...and the Treatment Options
The goals of treatment for women with PCOS include:
Understanding the treatments - and the treatment options for PCOS is crucial for successfully achieving the goals of treatment of PCOS. As you read through the section of the Guidebook that focuses on the treatments for PCOS, you will specifically learn about:
The role of surgery and assisted-reproductive technologies to improve the likelihood of ovulation and pregnancy in women with PCOS-associated anovulatory infertility, including:
The effect of PCOS and its treatment on pregnancy-associated complications, including:
A "One-of-a-Kind" Reference Guidebook on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome that Goes Way Beyond the Fundamentals
Since 1996, when Medifocus was founded, we've learned that many people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome are seeking more specific information that goes beyond the fundamentals, such as the causes, diagnosis, standard treatments, and treatment options. That's why we developed a "one-of-a-kind" reference Guidebook that goes way beyond the basics and also includes the following sections:
A Guide to Recent Medical Literature on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - This section of the Guidebook contains an extensive bibliography of over 100 references to recently published articles about Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in authoritative, peer-reviewed medical journals with links to the absracts (summaries) of the articles. These articles represent the latest advances in the field and focus on cutting-edge research, new developments, and the lessons learned from recently published clinical trials involving patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. This is the same level of that is used by doctors who treat people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome to keep abreast of the latest developments and breakthroughs in this specialized field of medicine.
Centers of Research for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - We've compiled a unique directory of doctors, hospitals, medical centers, and research institutions with special interest and, in many cases, clinical expertise in managing people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. The "Centers of Research" directory is a valuable resource for quickly identifying and locating leading medical authorities and medical institutions both within the United States and other countries who are considered to be at the forefront in clinical research and treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. You'd have to spend days - or even weeks - attempting to compile your own list of doctors and medical centers but, with the "Centers of Research" directory, the information is already right at your fingertips. All you have to do is act on the information by selecting and contacting the experts or medical institutions listed in the directory by state and country.
Organizations and Support Groups for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - The Guidebook also includes a directory of organizations and support groups whose goal is to help people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome by providing access to information, resources, and services. Many of these organizations can answer your specific questions, enable you to "network" with other patients, and provide guidance in areas such as financial, social, or medical-legal issues. This valuable directory of organizations and support groups includes complete contact information, including phone numbers and E-mail addresses.

Last night I had supper atop a glade in the middle of the Missouri Ozarks. The October evening was unseasonably warm, the sun hanging low above the surrounding oaks and cedars, the dog splashing in the creek at the bottom of the hollow. (That'd be the 'holler' if I lived in Mizz-ur-ra, not Mizz-ur-ee.)
Over a small Indian fire, we cooked buffalo steaks, toasted whole-grain rolls, and roasted apples, all speared onto V-necked dogwood shoots and balanced over the embers by a heat-reflecting stone. Twas some feast.
Twas some feast, yes, but one of considerable incongruity too, given that the buffalo and the rolls came from Whole Foods – but then were cooked entirely without benefit of modern convenience save a sharp knife and stick matches.
It just goes to show, technology isn't a necessity, it's a convenience – which isn't to say that we all don't rely on these conveniences, that they don't make our lives easier, even better.
Here are ten conveniences that make my life in the kitchen better, easier, kitchen technology that makes me happy to live in the modern world – so long as every once in awhile, "supper is served" in the woods.
Slow Cooker – I recently invested in a programmable slow cooker with 'high' and 'low' and 'keep warm' features – for the first time, I understand why home cooks love their slow cookers. Watch for slow-cooker adaptations of many Kitchen Parade recipes in the next year.
Kitchen Scale – Time and again, I pull out my kitchen scale to measure ingredients, especially for ones such as cheese and nuts and vegetables that measured by either weight and volume. The kitchen scale helps me use 'just enough' – not too much, not too little.
Nutrition Analysis Software – Software helps answer 'what if' questions related to ingredients and portion size. 'What if' I used 1 tablespoon olive oil versus the 4 tablespoons specified? What if this apple pie were cut into 10 slim slices versus 8 generous pieces? For my Windows laptop, I relied on AccuChef. Now that I use a Mac, I use Mac Gourmet and its nutrition analysis plug-in.
FoodSaver – Since paying close attention to cooking on a budget, I've started buying meat once a month, then stocking the freezer. The first month, I used the butcher's packaging, what a mistake. Now I repack the meat into meal-sized portions and also, say, separately package the backs and wings of chickens for making chicken stock, and later then, freeze already-cooked meat for another meal. The FoodSaver vacuum seals the air out of the packaging, so the meat doesn't get freezer burned and doesn't leak into the fridge while defrosting. Many thanks to Kalyn from Kalyn's Kitchen for encouraging this purchase!
Immersion Blender – I do love my Cuisinart food processor but it's the immersion blender I turn to more often, both the blender itself and the mini food processor attachment. They're small, handy and easily fit into the dishwasher.

Electric tea kettle – Do we really need an appliance that boils water? Well, yes, at least I do. Faster than the stove or the microwave, an electric tea kettle heats the water for a fast soup or fast plate of pasta. My small electric kettle from Presto boils water to the perfect temperature for tea, too!
Ice Cream Maker – This molasses ice cream reminded me how fun it is to create unusual ice cream flavors, with cream and eggs and sugar, no stabilizers, no chemicals. An ice cream maker makes it oh-so-convenient.
Food Blog Search – If you love the creativity and common sense recipes of food bloggers, be sure to bookmark the food blog search engine designed by food bloggers Elise, Kalyn and me that includes (so far!) 2600 top food blogs from across the world.
Delicious – Once you find an enticing recipe on Food Blog Search, save it for later using Delicious. Tag the recipes with your own terms, whatever will make it easy to find them later. I use terms like 'zucchini', 'brown rice', even qualities like 'easy' and cooking occasions like my 'book club'. It's also easy to share your collection with friends and family, just send them the link to your very own page on Delicious. For A Veggie Venture, I use Delicious to collect delicious-looking vegetable recipes from other food blogs, called VegetableSpotting.
Printer – Okay so perhaps I'm a kitchen luddite because I don't carry my laptop into the kitchen to cook from. Me, I want to print the recipe so I can make notes about my own ideas and adaptations, so a printer is essential.
And you? So. That's my Top Ten list of favorite kitchen tools. What wouldn't be on your list? What IS on your own list? Drop a quick e-mail, leave a comment. I'd love to know!

Maris ~ I held off an immersion blender for the longest time, now it's not only one that I use myself but one I give for gifts too!
I am on the fence about a Food Saver, although I have heard Kayln wax poetic about it. My husband is not that into the taste of frozen meat, but he might need to get over that.
Personally, I love my slicer thingy from Germany, my microplaner, my knives, my coffee maker and my Salter scale.
Great post and I would have loved to have been at your cookout. It sounds fantastic.
re the frozen meat, it is cooked meat he doesn't like refrozen? It does change the consistency. I've also learned to only get enough meat for a couple of weeks. My old habit was to fill the freezer and then get to the meat months and months later -- although wait, I think that the FoodSaver will at least be some better if that's the process.
Your slicer thingy is a mandoline, yes? It's a good addition to the list! Nice to see another scale lover!
Julie ~ A cast iron skillet is a great addition, yes, I use mine almost every day too. The juicer sounds great, mine is big and clunky.
Ruth ~ Thanks!
My other must have? A rice cooker. Best thing I ever bought. I used it almost every day.
Runner up: a wide-mouth funnel I bought in a jelly-making kit from Ball a while ago, it's great for pouring all kinds of things, cold, dry whatever!

Thank you for taking a moment to write! I read each and every comment, for each and every recipe. If you have a specific question, it's nearly always answered quick-quick. But I also love hearing your reactions, your curiosity, even your concerns! When you've made a recipe, I especially love to know how it turned out, what variations you made, what you'll do differently the next time. ~ Alanna
