First off let me say I didn't realize that this ring wasn't sat in sterling silver. I guess I assumed since the company name is inspired silver that it would in fact be sterling silver. The only other thing is thst the color on the site is brilliant the color in reality is almost see through:( hope this helps!

I was a little disappointed with this ring. It's not the same color as the picture. It is alot darker in person and very dull. The color is actually more of a blue instead of this caribbean blue that they advertise. In fact, the ring I got doesn't really look like this one at all. I bought it for the color and am disappointed.

As ordered reported by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on May 22, 2013
H.R. 850 would amend and expand existing sanctions against Iran. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have discretionary costs of about $22 million over the 2014-2018 period, assuming appropriation of the estimated amounts. Pay-as-you-go procedures apply to this legislation because it would affect direct spending and revenues; however, CBO estimates that those effects would not be significant.
The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 850 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall primarily within budget functions 150 (international affairs), 400 (transportation), and 800 (general government).

Our Mission
The overarching mission of the Indiana University Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) is to protect the rights and welfare of human research participants recruited to participate in research conducted under the auspices of Indiana University. Rather than ensuring mere compliance with the federal regulations, IU's HRPP, consisting primarily of the Human Subjects Office and the IU Institutional Review Boards (IRBs), strives to adhere to the highest ethical standards in its protection of human research participants and seeks to further develop the methods and mechanisms for protecting human research participants. To meet this mission, the HRPP in collaboration with the IU research community seeks to:
- Create an atmosphere of respect for, and awareness of, the rights and welfare of human research participants at IU and its affiliated organizations.
- Continue to inform established researchers about the application of the federal regulations and ethical principles to their particular area of research in an effort to keep researchers current with evolving standards.
- Educate students, faculty, and staff who conduct research about the ethical principles and federal regulations guiding research with humans.
- Assess the effectiveness of the Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) in their review of research activities, facilitation of compliance of researchers with the federal regulations, and protection of research participants.
- Develop new approaches that better serve the overarching mission of the HRPP, such as state-of-the-art educational materials, more efficient methods for processing applications, tracking and monitoring research activities, and assessing the overall effectiveness of the HRPP.
The IU IRBs and their affiliated organizations are responsible for the review and approval of all research involving human subjects conducted under the auspices of these institutions. These boards are charged with protecting the rights and welfare of human research subjects recruited to participate in research activities and to ensure compliance with applicable University and organizational policies and federal regulations.
The boards are responsible for reviewing all research projects involving human subjects that are conducted at these institutions' facilities or property; are sponsored by these institutions; are conducted by or under the direction of any employees or agents of these institutions in connection with their institutional responsibilities; or involves the use of these institutions' non-public information to identify or contact human research subjects or prospective subjects. In addition, the IRBs may be asked by organizational officials to review research protocols on behalf of other institutions with which they have formal affiliation agreements.

As Seen On
With Tana's 93% Accuracy Rate
You'll Get Accurate Answers To Any Questions!
You may remember me from when I solved a double-homicide cold case on "Psychic Detectives." Or when I predicted the Oklahoma City Bombing, 90 minutes before it happened, on a live radio show. Or maybe you've seen me when I was featured several times on such programs as "The Wendy Williams Show," William Shatner's "Weird and How," or "The Jenny Jones Show."
I have been a professional psychic for over 21 years, and have given over 90,000 accurate psychic readings—and now I'm excited to give you your reading too!
More Than Just Psychic Predictions
How often do you lie awake at night, worried about the stresses of tomorrow, or the upcoming months? Are you having relationship problems, feeling lonely, or feeling like you don't fit in at work or school? Do you feel like you're stuck in a rut, but simply don't know how to move on?
Have you ever wanted to know how many children you'll have, or at what age you'll be married? Would you like to know what's in store for your children's futures—or even your own future? Do you wonder if you are ever going to find your true soul mate? Do you wonder if the person you thought was your soul mate is cheating on you? Have things become stale in your marriage or relationship?
I've been able to help thousands of people answer these questions, and many more during their psychic readings, including questions involving their love life, career, and even family advice. And now I want to help you get answers to your questions, and show you how to get the outcomes you desire in your life.
Helping You Find Peace of Mind for a Better Life Now
Some people may offer you a cheap psychic reading that leaves you with even more questions! But I want to help bring you a peace of mind that leads to a better life now! Whether you use my online psychic prediction, or want to have a consultation over the phone, I'm here to help.
Here's the best part – my Personal Money-Back Guarantee: I don't want to charge you for something you didn't find helpful! So I guarantee that if in the first 10 minutes of our conversation, you don't think my psychic readings are for you, I'll refund every cent of your investment —no questions asked, no hard feelings, and we'll still be friends! I'm here to help you!
Now It's Your Turn
If you're still reading this, we should be on the phone by now! Take charge of your paranoia, anxiety, fear, worries, and concerns today. Call me, Tana Hoy, and I'll help you get to the bottom of your problems. With my accurate psychic predictions, you can start living the life you want to live, and get the answers that you need to have your peace of mind back today.
Click here to find out more.
When I first talked to Tana, he told me only one thing, after just 10 minutes. He told me that I will meet my soul mate soon, and his name starts with the letter M
He was right, it has been 3 months since then and now I am married to Marc.
Thank you again, and I can't wait to speak with you again..

Jamón Ibérico is a delicious, beautiful cured ham found only in Spain. Each marbled slice is a symphony of flavors, and so rich that you savor each bite.
We tasted hams from across Spain and chose this as our house Peregrino brand. Unlike most normal Ibérico, ours is made from free-range pork from the dehesa rangelands of southwestern Spain. The only difference between this and the exalted Jamón Ibérico de Bellota is that it was not fully finished on acorns.
The best way to enjoy Jamón Ibérico is sliced by hand from the whole piece. Our Peregrino Ibérico ham will make a beautiful centerpiece for any party, and can supply weeks of delectable jamón for your friends and family.
Jamón Ibérico comes from the special breed of black Ibérico pigs only found in Spain. Ibérico pork has a deep red color and a lot of flavorful fat, which allows it to be cured for over two years. This long curing time allows a concert of chemical changes to occur, transforming pork into an incredibly flavorful cured ham.
Our Peregrino Ibérico hams come from 100% Ibérico breed pigs that enjoyed a privileged life outdoors, but did not reach the required weight to be called "Bellota", and were fed extra grain. The result is the finest non-Bellota Ibérico in the US.
We've traveled Spain for nearly 40 years, exploring the countryside and discovering Spain's finest foods. Just about every bar and café across the country proudly displays their collection of cured Spanish hams, ready to be sliced by hand when you place an order. From this we learned to truly appreciate great jamón. We guarantee that you will love the flavor of this excellent Ibérico ham, chosen by our family to carry the Peregrino brand name.
Please view the video found on this page for instructions on how to properly carve a whole jamón. A ham holder is a necessary accessory in order to carve the ham properly. Store your ham in a cool, dry place.

Little Peaby Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Jen Corace
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
If Little Pea doesn't eat all of his sweets, there will be no vegetables for dessert! What's a young pea to do? Children who have trouble swallowing their veggies will love the way this pea-size picture book serves up a playful story they can relate to.
"Peas, the oft-reviled legumes that can make dinnertime a battle, take center plate in Rosenthal's (Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life, for adults) silly picture book about food choices — and picky eaters — turned topsy-turvy. Little Pea enjoys an ordinary life with his parents and pea pals playing, reading stories and getting lovingly tucked into bed. But the one thing Little Pea has trouble with is candy, the icky entre that his parents insist he eat for dinner each night. As Mama and Papa Pea say, 'If you want to grow up to be a big strong pea' or have dessert, candy must be eaten. Once Little Pea whines through his required five-piece serving of sweets, he's happy to top off his torture with a special treat — spinach! Young readers will take glee in Little Pea's absurd yet familiar predicament, while parents will surely identify with Mama and Papa Pea's universal struggle. Newcomer Corace's warmhearted ink-and-watercolor paintings plays up the most of ample white space, which plays up the vibrant greenness of the Pea family. Images of tiny, bouncing peas playing hopscotch, and Papa Pea flipping his boy off the end of a spoon are especially memorable. Kids are likely to view their veggies with new eyes when mealtime rolls around. Ages 3-up." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Picky eaters will enjoy the subtle humor of this topsy-turvy tale." School Library Journal

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - With fireworks sales booming ahead of the Fourth of July, a Metro Louisville fire chief warned of further damage caused by illegal fireworks. The banned varieties, which include firecrackers and bottle rockets, caused at least $250,000 in property damage across Jefferson County in 2013, Okolona Fire Chief Mike Allendorf said."The problem is, you shoot it straight up and it's not going to land in your own yard, it's going to land a couple neighbors down," Allendorf said.Allendorf said it isn't common to catch people selling illegal fireworks in Jefferson County, although a complaint led to one bust Thursday afternoon at the corner of Poplar Level Road and East Indian Trail.Candice, the woman running the fireworks stand, wouldn't give WAVE 3 News her last name or the last name of her boss, Dave. She said she had to drive the illegal fireworks to Bullitt County, where they are legal, after Okolona Fire officials made the discovery."I did know," Candice said, when asked whether she knew the fireworks were illegal. "But that's where your money is."Last year, illegal fireworks caused damage to a construction site at Lassiter Elementary School in Fairdale. An bottle rocket illegally set from a nearby apartment complex even damaged Allendorf's garden, he said. "The clock's ticking. We're going to be adding up the damage (this year)," he said. Another stand on Preston Highway near Blue Lick Road in Okolona wasn't selling any illegal fireworks when WAVE 3 News drove up."I'd say 75 percent of people coming up want firecrackers and bottle rockets and that type of stuff," said Olivia Bailey, who was managing the stand. "But we can't sell them here."Candice, the woman busted for selling illegal fireworks, said she would remain open with less-profitable "kiddie fireworks" for sale. She questioned why the larger fireworks were legal in other Kentucky and Indiana counties but not in Louisville."What's the difference?" she said. "I don't know how many tents in Jefferson County have them, but I know this tent does not have them." People who light off illegal fireworks that cause damage can face wanton endangerment or arson charges, Allendorf said. Allendorf said his crews responded to 13 fires on the Fourth of July last year, mostly because of fireworks that had been improperly thrown away in dumpsters. With legal fireworks, he suggested: - Lighting them off on a hard, level surface - Having a garden hose nearby
- Soaking them with water before disposing

Reboot your retirement
December marked the fifth anniversary of the beginning of the Great Recession, and for many Americans, it has taken all of that time to get their retirement planning back on track. According to Fidelity Investment's analysis of its 12 million 401(k) accounts, the average annual employee's contribution grew 7.3 percent over the past five years to $5,900 at the end of the third quarter of 2012.
That sounds like good news, but at the same time, financial advisory firm HelloWallet found that more than one in four workers still dip into retirement funds to fund everything from mortgages, credit cards and other bills. Additionally, new reports by the AARP Public Policy Institute indicate that future retirees will live on just 73 percent of their work income compared with the 80 percent that current retirees live on. Factor in higher future health care costs, and the figure falls to 55 percent.
So what can you do to reboot your retirement? Here are some of the most frequently asked questions that I field about retirement plans.
Q. What's more important: paying down credit card debt, saving for a rainy day or putting money into retirement?
A. Hands down, the winner is debt pay-down, especially if you are carrying high interest loans. The next step is to establish your emergency reserve fund with 6 to 12 months of living expenses, and then start investing in your retirement plan.
Q. What should my target retirement contribution be?
A. The first hurdle is to contribute the amount necessary to qualify for your company's match. The next milestone would be to put 15 percent into the plan. For those with the available cash flow, retirement plan nirvana would be to allocate up to the federal government limit for this year, which is $17,500, plus an additional $5,500 if you are over the age of 50.
Q. Should I automatically use my employer's plan?
A. Not necessarily. With last year's new 401(k) rules, every plan must disclose its total fees to participants, so you will know exactly what your plan costs. The best plans have fees that total less than 1 percent, with a variety investment options. If your plan has expenses closer to 2 percent annually and expensive funds, and you make under the limit for IRA deductions ($58,000 for singles, $92,000 married filing jointly), you may want to contribute up to the match level and then consider an IRA or a Roth IRA. If you earn more, the best bet is to stick with the least expensive investment options (see below) and lobby your employer for a better plan!
Q. How should I invest inside my retirement plan?
So few fund managers beat the index against which they are measured that it's amazing anyone invests in managed funds at all. But they do. That said, if your retirement plan offers index funds, use them! The median actively managed plan charges over 1.1 percent annually, while an index is usually about 0.1 percent. Wouldn't you prefer that the one percent drop into your bottom line? If you are using target date funds within your plan, be sure to understand exactly how the managers invest your money. Many of these hybrid funds can be riskier than participants realize and also can be more expensive than index funds.
Q. How much company stock should I own inside my retirement account?
A. Who could forget the millions of dollars of retirement savings that were wiped out when Enron declared bankruptcy in 2001? That event was a wake up call to all plan participants who owned their company's stock inside their 401(k) plans. A good rule of thumb is to keep only 5 to 10 percent of the total account value in company stock. If your company makes its matching contribution in company stock, be vigilant about selling it. One way to manage the process is to select automatic rebalancing every six months. By doing so, you will ensure that you sell the stock and diversify your account with other investment choices.
These five years have been financially devastating, which is why retirement funding has fallen off the radar for many Americans. As the recovery continues, the goal is to rebuild in a sensible and methodical way.

The Rural Electric and Telecommunications Development Center
Communities build, grow with development financing
When the owner of Bottineau's only clothing store retired recently, Todd and Julie Mears stepped in to purchase the business and the building. They own a similar business in Rolla.
"They knew they needed new heating, air conditioning, windows and carpeting," says Diane Olson, director of the Bottineau County Economic Development Council (CEDC). "But the cost of remodeling went beyond what they expected. When they found they needed a new roof and wiring, they came to me for help."
A county mill levy and a city sales tax support the Bottineau CEDC, but taxes don't meet all community needs. Bottineau CEDC had already participated in the project with $50,000, and then worked to access an additional $50,000 from RDFC at 2 percent interest for 10 years.
RDFC offers participation loans, like the one provided for Bottineau, through local lenders at interest rates of 1 to 2 percent. RDFC can also lend directly to local economic development corporations. In addition, the Flex PACE loan program, available through the Bank of North Dakota, finances economic development corporation projects at 0 percent interest.
"Bottineau's Golden Rule Clothing Store re-opened in May, and we're delighted," Olson says. "It sells shoes and clothing for men, women and children, and looks like a store you'd find in a much larger community."
With 2,500 residents, Bottineau serves as a regional retail center. At the same time, the area's population continues to grow as a result of increased oil activity and federal jobs along the Canadian border. The growth has led to a housing shortage. A few years ago, a group of local business leaders built a 10-unit apartment complex, which has been fully occupied. Recently, a group of five local investors – some of whom were involved in the 10-plex – purchased land to build an eight-plex.
When the group needed to extend water and sewer services to the site, which was outside the city limits, the Bottineau CEDC provided $50,000, and RDFC helped with an additional $50,000 10-year loan at 2 percent interest.
Buffalo fire hall
Jim Jager spends more hours volunteering as a fireman and emergency medical technician (EMT) for the Buffalo Rural Fire District than he does at his full-time job hauling U.S. mail.
Jager is one of 27 volunteers with the fire district, which serves about 600 people. Most operating funds come from taxes paid by local citizens. In addition, the firemen gather donations each February, when people drive from miles around to taste the fire crew's homemade sausage at a pancake feed. But neither taxes nor pancakes generate the dollars necessary to build a much-needed new fire hall.
"Without more space, we can't upgrade any of our four fire trucks or our quick response vehicle," Jager says. "We need a place for larger equipment, and room to conduct our own training."
Jager began volunteering with the fire department 26 years ago when he was in high school. Today, he's a member of the department's building committee and acts as liaison with the architectural firm.
"We've been trying to raise funds for the new hall for years, but we ran into brick walls wherever we went," he says. "We requested federal stimulus dollars, but that money went to places like Los Angeles. With the growth in North Dakota's oil economy, builders are busy, and every year adds zeros to construction costs."
Then a letter from NDAREC arrived, outlining the RDFC loan program. The district applied, and RDFC provided a $50,000 loan at 1 percent interest for 10 years through the Buffalo branch of First State Bank of North Dakota. The fire district also sought a PACE Flex loan through the Bank of North Dakota. "These programs will save us $166,000 in interest over the life of the loans," Jager says. "RDFC's been wonderful to work with."
Helping Minot area water district
Dick Lokken retired from his job as an electrician a few years ago, but he, too, keeps busy volunteering for local causes. Lately, Lokken has been rewiring his church, damaged by the Minot area flood. He also chairs the board of West River Water District, which provides water and sewer services to 173 homes and businesses in a rural area near Minot – or at least it did until the flood prompted almost everyone in the district to evacuate.
"The flood destroyed a lot of beautiful homes here – it was a tremendous economic hit," Lokken says. He and his wife, Gloria, were relatively lucky – only their basement was damaged.
Flooding damaged water and sewer lines for the water district. "We hope that most of our expenses will be covered by FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) and the state," Dick says. "But we're taking on added debt for emergency work and repairs."
Expenses to rebuild water and sewer lines, as well as controls in a sewer lift station, will run more than $200,000. More damage may come – the flood scoured out ground beneath sewer lines, and a hard freeze could take them out.
Beyond the cost of repairs, the district suffered lost income when it was forced to cut off services to customers. Some are back online, but winter weather will suspend most construction until spring. About 50 members of the district don't plan to rebuild.
The district got a boost when it heard about low-interest loans from RDFC. West River Water District received a $50,000, 10-year loan at 1 percent interest for immediate repairs. "The application went through quickly, and we appreciate it," Dick says.
Microloans for Maddock
Maddock leaders are using RDFC to usher in an era of microloans for the community. Leveraging a $15,000, 10-year, 1 percent loan from RDFC, the Maddock EDC will soon offer loans of $1,000 to $5,000 to small businesses or individual entrepreneurs around the town of 382. Borrowers can use the funds to start or expand businesses, rehabilitate or reface buildings, or purchase equipment.
"Reduced access to capital has hurt many small businesses," says Erin Markestad, director of the Maddock Economic Development Corporation. "Many find it difficult to continue let alone grow – they need this tool to make it in today's economy. The money will be well-spent in our community."

Nails Go Galactic
Written on January 19, 2011 at 8:08 am , by Fitness Magazine
Vamp up your nails with a color that's of a whole new dimension. Duochrome nail polish brings something different to the basic manicure. Infused with several different complimentary shades and a slight shimmer, the polish changes color as you move thanks to reflecting light. The trendiest tints come in a darker range—a slightly psychedelic mix of purples, blues, greens and gunmetals all in one bottle! Would you try a duochrome manicure?
Our space-age suggestions, below from left: Orly Nail Color in Space Cadet and Duri Nail Polish in Kingdom of Shadows.

MARYLAND - Traveling will now be a little easier for farmers in Maryland.
Today, the Maryland Farm Bureau (MFB) announced the passage of Senate Bill 221, which will allow the expansion of farm-area vehicles with a "class K registration" to travel from 10 to 25 miles. Vehicles with this registration have a 'K' on the end of the license plate.
According to reports, for over two years, MFB worked closely with the State Highway Administration to put forward a bill that would expand the current 10-mile radius of a Class K registration, better known as a K-tag. Farmers say with operations expanding, the legislation is a big step.
"There's a lot of farmers that are traveling for land now, you can't just pick it up next door for you, you've got to travel to get it," says Brian Johnson, owner and operator of Elseed Farms Inc.
Johnson says he travels to an area that is about 25 miles away to farm, and he can now get there legally without having to retag and inspect the vehicles.
"That's a huge expense for farmers."
The MFB says the passage of this legislation will also curb fraud when non-farming vehicles apply for a K-tag. Farmers will reportedly now submit a schedule F tax form or show proof of farming activity at the time of renewal or initial application. Officials say there is a five-year limit on the radius increase, to look at the economic impact of the expansion.

Ballistic Shield Shooting Tips
October 16, 2012 at 16:36

Posted in
Hard Armor
In my opinion, the ballistic shield is still best used in conjunction with a handgun. Original shield designs and training supported this concept, but as the tactical community has become more and more long gun friendly, students are constantly looking for techniques that will allow the use of long guns with their shield. The first thing I must point out is that I truly support the use of long guns in tactical operations, however to get the most protection from a ballistic shield the shooter...

How to Choose a Fighting PIstol

Hard Armor
Many have weighed in on the topic of the fighting pistol, yet the debate and search for the "one" still continues today. The questions go round as to make, model, caliber and more. The definition of the fighting pistol is a full-size pistol with the primary mission of being openly carried in a duty holster or leg holster by the person who goes armed into harm's way on a daily basis. Based on my experience, I believe the following factors should be considered when choosing the best fighting...

Forever you told me;
"You're not right you see"
And for every reaction
Were there not infractions
And is it that you qualify
Due to all those tears that fell from your eye.
Four scores and many chores latter;
You still travel the lanes as the hater.
And my breath it labors with tears of regret;
All words fail and forgiveness comes not yet.
The angels tell me this not the way of it;
And the guardians they encourage me to quit.
So I slip away to perhaps be forgot;
But never blinded or ever bought.

Wii - WII - Preview 2
E3 2006 Hands On Preview
Tucked in the back of Nintendo's Wii
exhibit were two kiosks housing demos of the Wii Virtual Console. The Virtual
Console is a Nintendo-designed emulator that will allow titles from past
generations to be played on the new console. It's a "virtual" console because
none of these titles will be stored on the machine itself – they'll be played
while connected to whatever online game service Nintendo provides.
Exact details of how and when we'll get our hands on the Virtual Console have yet to be announced, but that didn't stop Nintendo from letting attendees play five of the thousands of classic titles that will be offered: Super Mario Bros., Sonic the Hedgehog, Mario World, Mario 64, and Bonk's Adventure.
All Virtual Console games are compatible with the newly announced Wii Classic Controller:
The Classic Controller, which looks and feels like the lovechild of the SNES and PSone Dual-Shock controllers, is light, comfortable, and easy to use. Face buttons are thick and sturdy, with just the right amount of resistance needed for the arcade-oriented gameplay of the 16-bit era. Three shoulder buttons have been placed on top of the controller, the first two functioning as L and R. The third is smaller and is just left of the R button, and will work as the Z button for games like Mario 64.
Both analog sticks have the same rubberized feeling of the Wii analog attachment, which is only slightly different from the GameCube thumbstick. It's smooth and rounded on top with a raised circle to help keep your thumb from slipping. Though only the left analog stick was functional (none of the games available utilized two sticks), the controller was reliable and very fun to use, taking myself and other attendees back to our gaming roots.
The games themselves were great. Each one is an exact port of the original, with zero changes in gameplay, sound, graphics, etc. Super Mario Bros. looked a little strange running on a high-def television – the picture was crystal clear, but the red tones were a tad too intense. That was likely the TV's fault and not the fault of the game, as Mario 64 and Sonic the Hedgehog looked perfect.
Each game played exactly as you'll remember. I ran through the original Mario and instantly started hopping on Goombas, punching bricks, and collected a few coins. The same goes for Mario 64 – I was just about to collect my first star when I realized that I was still at the Electronic Entertainment Expo. I didn't have enough time to relive the past.
Sonic ran as smooth as ever, and while I haven't played the original Bonk's, I'm willing to bet that it isn't any different either.
In addition to the five games available at the show, Nintendo has previously announced that over 1,000 Genesis titles will (eventually) become available on the Wii Virtual Console. Several Turbo-Grafx games will also be playable on Wii, giving millions of players access to a classic system they've never experienced before (myself included).
Nintendo has not announced how many of their own titles will be available, but they did confirm a lineup spanning across the NES, SNES and Nintendo 64.

Dec. 5, 2013
FORT COLLINS, Colo.--In a battle to the finish, the Colorado State women's basketball team came out victorious over the Loyola Marymount Lions, 70-68. The Rams (5-3, 0-0 MW) led the game 70-68 with 3.5 seconds left on the clock, when the Lions (1-7, 0-0 WCC) responded with a layup in the final seconds of the shot clock, which was reviewed as no good by the referees.
"LMU was pretty energetic tonight," Head Coach Ryun Williams commended tonight. "All we needed as one more free throw, and we're not in those situations. With each close game, we're going to get better, and they're handling each game better."
In the first half of the game, Colorado State was down 25-33 against the Lions. From the field, the Rams were outshot 35.5 to 46.4 percent. Colorado State was able to keep their turnovers down, though, only giving the ball away six times, as opposed to the Lions' 12 turnovers in the first half of the game. Off of those turnovers, the Rams were able to gain 14 points.
"Our shots did start falling, but we started to play more as a team," senior Sam Martin commented. "The first half we went a little individualized; it's still early on in the year and we're going to get better at that, but in the second half we regrouped and played together as a team and that's what really got us going."
Coming out of the half, Colorado State picked up the pace of play tremendously, going on an 11-0 run in the first few minutes of play. In the second half of the game, the Rams improved their field-goal percentage immensely, shooting 55.2 percent.
Martin continued to show her senior leadership as she led the Rams with 20 points, a season high. The 6-2 forward pulled down five rebounds and added four assists. With Martin's massive effort in the paint, Colorado State was able to put up 32 points in the paint, while the Lions had 24 points.
"She did a nice job on the block in the second half," Williams praised. "When we needed a senior to step up, a senior stepped up tonight."
Freshman Ellen Nystrom added 14 points to the Rams final score. Nystrom's layup in the final seconds of the game, followed by a made free-throw shot by sophomore Caitlin Duffy, iced the win for the Rams. Nystrom added four rebounds and four assists.
Junior AJ Newton also added double-digit scoring figures to the Rams total score, putting up 13 points on the night, while also adding four assists and three rebounds. Duffy added seven points for the Rams, as well as five rebounds and one assist.
So far in the 2013-14 season, this is the fifth game the Rams have played that has been decided by five points or less, and Colorado State is now 3-2 in those games.
In last season's game against Loyola Marymount, Colorado State dug a hole too deep to crawl out in Los Angeles, falling 69-52.
Loyola Marymount's largest lead throughout the game was 13 points, tying the Rams largest deficit in a win so far this season.
Colorado State travels one hour south for its final road trip of 2013 to Denver on Sunday. Tipoff at Magness Arena is scheduled for 1 p.m. MT.

A Fast Growing Financial Services Firm
Lee is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
FactSet Research Systems (NYSE: FDS) gave earnings which were met with an immediate markdown. For some reason the stock seems to usually invoke great drama after it gives results, but the latest numbers and guidance were pretty much in line. I like the company and think it has some attractive defensive properties which make it a good stock to hold in a balanced portfolio.
FactSet Results
At the previous set of results FactSet had guided towards $208 million in revenues and Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.15-117c. In the end it recorded $207 million in revenues and $1.18c, both numbers were pretty much in line. Moreover the guidance for Q1 2013 of $210-213 million and $1.10-1.12 in EPS was in line with analyst estimates. So why the initial sell off?
Who knows? But what we do know is that these results were pretty good. Prior to them I had mentioned that the key metrics to look out for are the Annual Subscription Value (ASV) and the client count. The former represents the forward looking yearly revenue for the firm, although I would caution investors from reading too much into it. Clients can give FactSet notice and get rid of parts of the service that they don't want anymore. In reality they are unlikely to do so in meaningful amounts as long as the financial services industry is doing okay.
A quick look at how these two key metrics have been trending.
The recovery since 2008 is clear but, interestingly, note that ASV held up quite nicely even in the turmoil. I'll come to the reasons why in a moment.
First I want to look at the underlying trends in more detail.
Client growth improved in the last quarter even though the pace of growth in ASV appears to be slowing. Superficially this looks worrying and could be a sign that FactSet is now pushing for less lucrative customers however lets recall that new customers don't tend to be the most profitable so when client numbers are accelerating, it's natural to see some slowing in ASV.
Moreover the StreetAccount acquisition should create some good cross selling opportunities as well as a boost to ASV.
FactSet's Defensive Qualities
The company did okay in 2009 for two main reasons.
First, it has a range of product offerings which tend to offset each other across market conditions. For example if equity departments are being cut back then bonds, alternative asset classes or foreign exchange might be doing better. It is a diversified offering which compares favorably with a company like Bankrate (NYSE: RATE) or Morningstar (NASDAQ: MORN). Bankrate offers a lot of specialist research and information to the banking and insurance industries and its products are closer tied to their prospects. Meanwhile, Morningstar is more of a play on mutual fund research. It is trying to expand its equity coverage but financial firms are notoriously particular when it comes to information.
The second reason is that FactSet's offerings are not the most sophisticated and are often seen as a 'trading down' option. The company is unlikely to take this line of argument but I think many people would agree with me. Its solutions are certainly not as expensive as a Bloomberg terminal or a Reuters desktop from Thomson Reuters Corporation and as FactSet adds more information it can increasingly encroach on these companies share.
Others may disagree with me and forgive my cynicism, but I simply don't believe that owning a Bloomberg terminal or Reuters desktop makes any equity investment professional any better. They look good though and it's a key status symbol and the financial services industry is not short of people willing to waste other people's money on status symbols. My point is that financial firms may well wake up to the fact that their staff are no less effective by using a cheaper FactSet solution.
Where Next For FactSet?
The results look pretty good and the StreetAccount acquisition makes sense. I would hope to see an increase in ASV going forward as the acceleration in new accounts over the last year or so should bring some added revenue opportunities.
I also like the defensive qualities of the firm. It will suffer a lot less if there is some kind of severe financial slowdown. The realist in me tells me that the story of the last few years is that no expense will be spared to save the financial services industry and I don't think that will change anytime soon. In other words, FactSet's customers will still be around in the future. However the risk of short term disruption caused by the EuroZone cannot be discounted.
Furthermore, it's hard to argue that the stock is cheap right now and I wouldn't be in a hurry to pay 24x earnings for a company in this environment. This is one for the monitor list.
