HOUSTON, Miss. -- Recruiting in the Southeastern Conference already had plenty of stories. Chris Jones might have raised the bar. The 5-star defensive end from Houston (Miss.) High School chose Mississippi State over Ole Miss on Wednesday morning on National Signing Day. It wasn't as easy as picking up a hat though, and the regular SEC suspects aren't involved. Trade Alabama and LSU for Ole Miss and Mississippi State. Ole Miss came into the picture heavily two weeks before signing day after Jones (6-foot-5, 255 pounds) made two late-night secretive visits to Oxford that stirred Rebel fans. The twists and turns continued all the way into signing day as Jones said he didn't make a final decision until 6 a.m., three hours before hisnews conference. "To tell you the truth I considered flipping. I was 80 percent on flipping until this morning I talked to both coaches," Jones said. "I felt like Mississippi State was the best fit for me." His mom commented to reporters minutes before...

Paul Ryan's budget proposals have earned him recognition from his fellow party members in Congress, and the presumed Republican vice presidential nominee's plans could have far-reaching effects on the American people if signed into law.
In Ryan's 2010 "Roadmap for America's Future" and the more recent "Path to Prosperity" in 2012, the Wisconsin congressman has laid out his vision for the role of the U.S. government and the future of federal entitlement programs.
Under Ryan's most recent proposal, the way Americans pay taxes would be markedly different. Taxpayers would fit into two tax brackets: Individuals falling in the top tax bracket would pay a rate of 25 percent, while those who fall into the lower bracket would pay 10 percent. (Ryan's 2010 Roadmap plan went further, eliminating all taxes on capital gains, inheritance and interest. Such cuts would have permitted individuals like Mitt Romney, who derives much of his income from those sources, to get away with paying nothing in taxes.)
To balance Ryan's proposed $4 trillion in tax cuts, many federal programs would have to be drastically revamped. The Atlantic's Derek Thompson estimates 40 percent cuts in transportation and education spending, and 24 percent cuts to veterans' programs, among others.
Medicare and Social Security would also face "reform" under the Ryan plan. Medicare beneficiaries, for example, would receive financial support from the government to purchase private health insurance coverage starting in 2023. Ryan's proposal could also mean that 44 million fewer people would be covered under Medicaid, CBS News reports.
Below are some of the ways Ryan's budget would affect you:
Paul Ryan's most recent budget proposal would save those making between $20,000 and $30,000 just $246 in taxes, compared to savings of $265,011 for those who make over $1 million, according to analysis from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
The "Path to Prosperity" would cut $2.4 trillion from Medicaid and other health care programs for people with low or moderate incomes, according to analysis from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
Under Ryan's "Path to Prosperity" as many as 44 million fewer people would be covered under Medicaid, according to CBS News.
Ryan would raise the age of Medicare eligibility from 65 to 67. If the Affordable Care Act was repealed, something Romney has pledged, that means many 65- and 66-year-olds would be left uninsured, the CBPP reports.
Under Ryan's "Path to Prosperity," senior citizens would have to pay as much as 68 percent of their health care coverage, up from 25 percent today, CBS News reports.
Ryan's proposed "Path to Prosperity" includes $134 billion in cuts to SNAP, according to analysis from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
A single mother of two working full time at the minimum wage would have her Child Tax Credit cut by more than $1,500, assuming she made $14,500 a year, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
Compared to the most recent White House budget proposal, Ryan's budget spends 33 percent less on education, training, employment and social services, the Washington Post reports.
Ryan's proposed cuts to environment and natural resource programs could result in weather forecasts being only half as accurate, according to Third Way's budget expert, David Kendall. "For many people planning a weekend outdoors, they may have to wait until Thursday for a forecast as accurate as one they now get on Monday," he's quoted as saying in the Washington Post.
The current government worker pay freeze would be extended under the "Path to Prosperity," meaning public-sector employees wouldn't get a raise until at least 2015, the Washington Post reports.

One of the big problems for hospitals and emergency rooms prior to the Affordable Care Act was the number of uninsured people going to emergency rooms for regular care. Emergency rooms saw dire situations made worse by not going to a doctor before problems became acute. These visits would cost more than an office visit and, more often than not, patients could not pay.
This would lead to hospitals having to absorb the costs, with patients feeling the pinch via higher insurance premiums and higher out-of-pocket costs. One of the touted benefits of the ACA was that more people would be able to afford health insurance and get the care they need before simple things became major problems.
While more than 8 million newly insured are receiving billions in healthcare benefits for less money, visits to the emergency room aren't seeing an immediate decrease.
The Los Angeles Times reports that in the first few months of ACA, the number of patients visiting the emergency rooms of Los Angeles County public hospitals increased by only 1.7 percent. This was substantially lower than previous years which saw increases as high as 5 percent for patients not requiring hospitalization. At the same time, however, thousands still went to the emergency rooms of private hospitals, often because their insurance would cover it.
The reasons why people are flocking to the ER are complicated.
For public hospitals, much of it has to do with choice. Many of the patients that relied on the public healthcare system now have more choices to seek care, even those that are covered under Medicaid. The unintended side effect for this is that the county hospitals may now be left with those that have no insurance and are most likely not able to pay. States that have refused to expand Medicaid have already seen many of their rural hospitals suffer due to the lack of coverage for those that didn't qualify for subsidies, but can't get covered under Medicaid.
Critics of the ACA have used this new data to claim that it isn't working and is putting people's lives at risk. They cite a study published earlier this year highlighting Oregon's expansion of Medicaid led to an increase in ER visits, including the fact that they were 40 percent more likely to go to the ER. These critics are conveniently ignoring that this study was from 2008 and it was an experimental expansion not related to the ACA, which had not even been written. While unrelated to the study, it should be noted that Oregon's actual implementation of the ACA is deemed one of the worst in the nation.
Nevertheless, these critics are also ignoring a major reason for the increase: People are going to the ER because they had nowhere else to go.
Some industry experts suggest that ER visits are due to a sudden influx of patients seeking care put off due to not being able to afford a doctor. Many of these patients tried to go to the doctor, however, but there was no appointment available. One major problem with the increase in the number of people who can now afford to go to the doctor is that there just aren't enough of them to go to.
Parents aren't able to get their child to a pediatrician due to a sudden rash or fever because there was no way the doctor would be able to see them, forcing an hours long visit to an emergency room. It is common for new parents to ask for pediatrician recommendations, yet it's still hard to find one. Many pediatricians no longer take insurance because of the costs of administration. If they do take new patients, they only take newborn siblings, already having more patients than they can handle.
After six years, I have learned to schedule my son's annual checkup three months in advance.
The increased number of people with insurance has led to a situation where the ER is the only place to get timely care. I, too, have been forced to go to the emergency room in the middle of the afternoon because my doctor was unable to see me with my great PPO plan and the matter required attention that I couldn't wait three weeks to deal with. During my wait in the emergency room, which would be hours because they determined I wasn't dying, I would overhear dozens of patients checking in with the same opening line: My doctor told me to come here.
This was before Obamacare even existed.
The delivery of care of our healthcare system will take time to adjust to the influx of millions that are entering. In addition to new doctors in all disciplines, there will need to be new ways to administer the networks that are efficient and timely. The reliance on ERs is not a reflection of the quality of care, most of which is still very good, or a failure of landmark legislation. It is a glaring reminder that affording health care isn't enough. Patients must also have access to the care they need when they need it.

Isn't this what ObamaCare was supposed to fix? We seem to be in the same place we were before.
health care shouldn't be about profits.....but it is too much
...we need to go back to a society that encourages and rewards education and desire to go into a profession that does society good....in this case medicine.....
....we need to then financially support college and medical school students heading into medical careers especially those going into primary care fields.....family medicine, general medicine, pediatrics and OB-GYN...and those willing to go work in inner city and rural locations.........too many students want to go where the $$$ is such as specialties, suburban hospitals, etc.....
I work in urban Minneapolis and for the past decade the majority of younger physicians in our clinic system have been foreign born graduates...the US trained students are all looking to work in suburbs where they won't have to "work so hard" in that they want an 8 to 5 clinic job without weekends,night or inpatient hospital responsibility.....very few want to stay in inner cities or go rural and very few want to stay in primary care.....
lets find out why and work to solve these issues....
The hospitals should hire.
Thanks for posting.
Thank you
Complaining about the ACA system doesn't change the simple supply/demand problem of not having enough PCPs. We can either import more doctors, or give PAs and NPs more authority, which incidentally, is something most physicians do NOT want and actively push back against. I'm not entirely in favor of it myself--working in the field, I've seen plenty of NPs who got their education decades ago, work in a very specific area, and don't have a real breadth of current knowledge. Some are great though, so it's a tough call. The physicians at least do have some continuing education demands to meet. However, the sharpest people tend to go into surgery, including the sadly lucrative plastic arena, or specialties like gastro or dermatology, not the slog that is primary care. With the population growing, I can't see any alternatives other than lowering the med school bar, or importing from countries who are pumping out more med school grads.
We have three "after hours" clinics in our rural area. They are a great alternative to the ER when you need to see a doctor, but no appointment is available.
Thanks Crystal for the very insightful article.
When I looked into signing up for healthcare, all the policies I saw were $700 plus and all had at least a $5,000 deductible. I eventually found a Christian group that had a much, much better deal, but still has a $5,000 deductible. Sure, I'll be covered if I have some catastrophic illness or accident, but otherwise I'm essentially not covered for any of the "smaller" charges. Office visits are out of the question unless I have the money to pay it myself. I don't know all the reasons people go to ER when it isn't a life or death emergency, but this could be part of it - people just can't afford an office visit. We should learn from Australia, they have much better quality care, better accessibility, and the per capita cost for health care is much lower. The US has the most expensive healthcare in the world and among the worst quality care in the developed world. As long as politicians get "kickbacks" from lobbyists, this situation will only get worse.

New Changes in the Allied Health Sciences: Catalog Year 2013-2014
(AHS) Major
Like health care itself, AHS is re-inventing itself in an effort to better align the degree with a more purposeful direction in health care careers. Starting Fall 2013 each student entering the major will need to declare or apply for secondary admission to a professional emphasis.
These emphases are designed to prepare you for either application to graduate professional programs or to embark on a professional career upon bachelor's graduation.
Gone is the "one size fits all" set of course requirements. Each emphasis is tailored to meet the preparatory needs of that health profession. Gone is the AHS requirement for a minor, except in those emphases that specifically call for a minor. The core AHS curriculum has shrunk to 22 credits to accommodate the requirements of each emphasis.
Emphasis Options
Pre-Health Care Professional Physical Therapy Studies
Pre-Health Care Professional Physician Assistant Studies
Pre- Health Care Professional Speech Language Pathology Studies
ABSOLUTE DEADLINE: MAY 5th
Respiratory Care Emphasis – Secondary Admission Required. Please click link for curriculum details.
Respiratory Care Application ~ Students with an Associates Degree already earned
Respiratory Care Application & Recommendation Form ~ Students without an Associates Degree
American Sign Language (ASL) Interpreting Emphasis - Minor not Required, Secondary Admission Required. Please click here for the ASL Emphasis application.
Health Information and Reimbursement Emphasis (HIR)
Please click these links for the HIR Emphasis application and curriculum guide.
General Allied Health Sciences Emphasis (this is much like AHS was before – for those uncertain as to career direction)
What will this all mean to me? Each person's career direction and academic history is different. For many, converting your program of studies over to this new AHS configuration will make sense. For some others it will not.
Please consult with your AHS academic advisor or your College of Health Professions Student Services advisor before making any decisions or changes.

About Me Advisor to volunteers
I gave this lapel pin to teen volunteers for our autism fund raiser. It was appropriate for boys and girls. Many of the young people had never heard the starfish story and were thrilled to receive the pin and a card I made with the story.Some of their parents wanted a pin also! Indeed it was the hit of our agency annual volunteer recognition event.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Yes, it is February 2012 and some very interesting things are happening around you as glimmers of real spring appear across the landscape. Several species of desert native plants are abandoning dormancy and starting to put out the first fist of growth, knocking the cap off winter.
It was 58-degrees Fahrenheit in Wallula Gap on Jan. 28, and many organisms continue to awaken. The Sandburg's blue bunch grass is already up and out, as are the first gnats and early native flies.
The salt and pepper lomatium (pronounced low-may-shum) will soon bloom around the Gap. It is the first blooming native plant, and announces the arrival of spring across the desert areas of the Lower Columbia Basin. It brings with it the first spark of renewed life in a drab, silent landscape. The small white and purple flower often blooms right behind the retreating snow drifts, bursting out of the cold earth looking for longer days and a warmer sun.
One very primitive type of plant that is in full display year-round in the Gap area are the many species of lichens ( pronounced like-ins) that grow in concentric circles and blotches. Some looking like blotches of chewed gum stuck on a rock, they are colored day-glow orange, pale lime-green, burnt rust, bright yellow and flat green, as well as black and many shades of brown, gray and white. These plants abound in brilliant colored colonies on all the basalt rims and boulders found within the Gap, leaving the whole area looking like a giant paint ball target range.
Hard as stone, these bright colored plants plastered against the surface of the ancient lava are starting a process that will over time break the surface areas of their host rocks into microscopic hairline fractures. Over many years the process will slowly turn the rocks into sands and soils after drawing nutrients, minerals and salts from this magma as they grow under the desert sun on very hot surfaces.
All about you right now in Walla Walla County is yet another irruption of an Arctic species of bird. A small winter finch known as the common redpoll has arrived. This 5-inch-long bird has a distinctive red cap and a small conical bill tooled to feed on thistle, catkins, knapweed and small grass seeds.
They arrive here solo and in small flocks. A large flock of 300 redpolls were seen a little more than a week ago in a dense patch of yellow starthistle that had gone to seed. These winter finches are challenged when feeding on this knapweed species as it has a halo of one-half- to quarter-inch-long sharp, yellow needle spines that protect the seed head.
The last time we saw common redpolls in Walla Walla County in these numbers was the winter of 1985-86. So as you look at birds visiting your feeders, watch for a red cap, very small bill and some dark streaking on the flanks in a background of white. They also have a forked tail, a black chin and a pink upper chest in the case of the adult males. Keep your eyes for these little Arctic beauties.
Other major events swirling about you this month are the arrival of thousands of snow geese and greater white-fronted geese, along with many species of other waterfowl out at McNary National Wildlife Refuge. And the American robins have arrived from the high-desert juniper belt around Bend, Ore.
The first Say's phoebe are soon to arrive. This flycatcher species will pass through headed north, as will the first violet-green swallows.
The first nesting birds have also taken up their posts since late January. Among them are the great horned owls.
This month red-tailed hawks, western screech owls, black-billed magpies and great blue herons will all start building nests and defending territories.
The American dippers along Mill Creek have started singing their loud, amazing song. And wintering bald eagles along the Columbia, Walla Walla and Touchet rivers are going to be very obvious sitting in big cottonwoods along shorelines.
Never seen a bald eagle in the wild? There are more than 50 of these big birds in the county right now. So get out there and enjoy these first few days of real spring and all the other life we share this county with. And remember, all native birds are federally protected.
Life is good!Mike Denny is vice president of the Blue Mountain chapter of the National Audubon Society. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com., or by calling 6-8 p.m. weekdays at 529-0080.

My name is Raina Elizabeth, as you can tell from my title, and I have been modeling since 2011. I love being in front of the camera with an experienced photographer, yet I really don't mind the Newbies either! :-) GWC's are acceptable as long as I can verify with other models. Heck, everyone has to start out somewhere!
I am comfortable with shooting Up To Nude within the right circumstances and as long as we have the general shoot parameters set prior to arrival.
I will, of course, travel as long as expenses are paid. I always arrive on time and ready to shoot! I love to work with Professional and Fun Loving Photographers who have a vision and can take it to the next level.
I am looking for any type of shoot, yet understand Implied & Nude Always comes at a reasonable price.
Can't wait to shoot with You! :-)
~ Raina

Main Pick
Headliner: 360
Representing: Queens, New York
Mixtape: Beginning of Forever
Real Spit: Not everyone gets a chance to see their dreams pan out. Queens, New York rapper 360 took a leap of faith last year when dropped his Everywhere and Back for free. Today, 6-0 is a full-time rapper and after he drops his new project Beginning of Forever on Tuesday, he doesn't plan on ever looking back.
"When I wrote the first song 'Vision,' I started writing from a whole different perspective as from my last project Everywhere and Back," 360 told Mixtape Daily of his upcoming BOF. "When I came off that I'm writing for the purposes of, just coming into music period; now I'm writing from a perspective of competing with other rappers."
Not all rappers are 60's competition however, he has made some well-known friends along the way. Freddie Gibbs and Jadakiss lend a hand on 360's "Own Thing" remix, while Waka Flocka jumps on the aspirational "Vanity."
"I want it all, I want everything in this life," 60 sings on the hook.
There are a number of street-centered records like the chest-pounding "Realest in America," but on "Gotta Get It" 360 links with Wyclef Jean and shows his versatility on a song that proves he's thinking bigger than the block. "So when you first come into the game they try to label you/ Pave my own lane, 'cause that's what hard labor do," he spits before 'Clef sings a motivational chorus.
Chances are 360's dreams don't stop at releasing online albums free of charge, but if he's truly focused on forever, then his latest is a step in the right direction. "I feel like this music is so good that it's going to change the rest of my life," he said confidently.
Joints to Check For
» "Vanity" — "I actually got inspired for this song from Instagram. It's featuring Waka Flocka, it's the first single off this project. It's basically about how we get sucked into all the things in this cold world right here."
» "When I'm Gone" — "Basically y'all gonna need me right here and if I'm gone, music is in big trouble."

Celeb make up artist Mally Roncal has worked with everyone from divas like Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige to "it" girls like Zooey Deschanel, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Gretchen Mol. It's safe to say that she knows how to tailor her work to the diverse styles of her white-hot clientele list.

The sun is shining, the breeze is blowing. Yes, Memorial Day has passed and summer travel is beckoning.

Pick up Touch of Ivy's beautiful silk makeup bag (lined in practical plastic) at Bluemercury uptown and tuck these <... >
When the mercury rises, you don't want to slather your face with heavy, clingy products. Summer is about letting skin breathe, allowing natural beauty to take center stage, yet fashionably fabulous women don't want to sacrifice color based on the weather. In honor of this seasonable dilemma, we selected the best waterproof, long-wearing products designed <... >
Much like the Material Girl herself, there are beauty products high and low that make their way into our collective consciousness (and makeup bags.) Classics for formulation, color or payoff, this month, we salute these must-haves by asking the experts – makeup artists – and the companies themselves what exactly makes these icons so special. <... >
Tattoo You L.A. Ink hottie Kat Von D collaborates with our friends at Sephora this June, launching a gorgeous collection of ink inspired makeup.

With twenty years to her credit as a professional makeup artist, Susan Posnick has worked with supermodels, celebrities and legendary photographers.

"And he gave it for his opinion,
that whoever could make two ears of corn,
or two blades of grass,
to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before,
would deserve better of mankind,
and do more essential service to his country,
than the whole race of politicians put together."
– Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels
Had Jonathan Swift not uttered those words of sagacious cynicism, there's a good chance Armand Saiia would have. It's a sentiment that resonates with Armand, the effusive chef-owner of Desert Grows. Sensing our confusion as we approached the towering trees providing sweet, salubrious shade to a charming courtyard, Armand welcomed us to one of the Duke City's most unique and most welcoming milieus, assuring us that we were indeed at the right place. Only partially joking, he explained that the goal of his restaurant is to "provide food on Route 66 for the 99-percent" and that he would like to "turn the Route 66 upside-down as a sign that the 99-percent of us are in distress."
Route 66, or at least the original route that meandered south from Santa Fe through Fourth Street is where Desert Grows is located though you won't see much in the way of signage to let you know you've reached your destination. Your best bet is to look for vertical flags in front of a converted stuccoed home directly across the street from the venerable Dan's Boots and Saddles. A weather-worn dirt road and sparsely graveled parking lot behind the restaurant does little to alleviate your confusion. Then there's a mobile food kitchen in a utility trailer which might lead you to wonder if Desert Grows is a food truck operation. There's also nothing to indicate the restaurant is within the stuccoed edifice. When Armand guided us to a comfortable, shaded space on the patio, we knew there was nowhere else on Earth we'd rather be.
Armand is a true Renaissance man with a passion for sustainable, healthy food, but unlike so many of the celebrated chef luminaries plying their trade in New Mexico, his path to a culinary career in the Land of Enchantment doesn't include the usual matriculation at an accredited culinary school. Instead of artistry on a plate, Armand's chosen career path was as a painter and sculptor who attained success in New York City (and if you can make it there, you'll make it anywhere), but being an artist only begins to define his assiduous life. He's also been a filmmaker, yogi, healer, wilderness camp instructor, organic farmer, restaurateur and chef.
It was his experiences in the restaurant field that would define his current life's path. Those experiences didn't cultivate a myopic, profit-driven mindset; they awakened a passion to combat the "industrial food plague" which he contends contributed to the deaths from cancer of two wives. He also believes that poor consumer health and suspect food quality is the ultimate cost of corporate agriculture and its mass production of inexpensive, chemically modified food. The alternative, he says is sustainable, local agriculture which may cost more, but is so much better and more importantly, better for you.
About a decade ago, Armand's passions led him to Ribera, New Mexico where he bought a nine-acre farm he christened Infinity Farms. After tending to vegetable gardens and greenhouses for three years, the gentleman farmer expanded his operation, establishing Desert Grows, a nonprofit agency he chartered to encourage and support other small farmers in the valley. For eight years, Armand even served as mayordomo for the acequias which are the life's blood for all farms in the area.
In 2014, Armand launched a restaurant he named The Desert Rose at the Fashion Outlets of Santa Fe, offering simple fare–sandwiches, salads, pastas and baked goods–to enthusiastic diners. Despite critical and popular acclaim, he didn't see eye-to-eye with the mall owners and relocated to Los Ranchos de Albuquerque where he launched Desert Grows. The menu boasts of "serving 90% New Mexico locally and naturally grown or eco-sourced food," The restaurant is provisioned with fresh local produce from his new acreage in the South Valley as well as his farm in Ribera and from La Montañita Co-op.
Whether you're passionate about sustainability and maintaining a small footprint or you're just passionate about great food, Desert Grows has something for you. It's got breakfast and lunch Tuesday through Sunday and dinner by reservation only. The lunch menu features salads, sandwiches and chef's specialties such as an Italian meat loaf plate, carne adovada tacos and more. Whatever you order is best washed down with organic apple cider (cherry, ginger, mint or lemonade apple). It's, by far, the best we've had in New Mexico.
While the menu is replete with temptation, daily specials are equally alluring. Armand is proud and passionate about everything on the menu, perhaps proudest of all of the heirloom tomato salad, a lush, lavish in-season cornucopia of freshness plated with artistic flair. This bounty of the garden showcases beauteous red and yellow heirloom tomatoes whose juicy deliciousness belies their plum size, julienne carrots, red onions, red peppers and mozzarella slice drizzled with a beet vinaigrette. It's beautiful to ogle and delightfully delectable to eat.
If you see potato wedges scrawled on a slate board on one of the mobile kitchens window, you're well advised to order them. While technically not wedge-shaped (they're more silver-dollar shaped), these terrific tubers, each about an eighth of an inch thick, are superb–maybe even better when dipped into the housemade (with fresh tomatoes) ketchup. If you like the papitas served with so many New Mexican dishes, you'll love these, though they may make you pine for red or green chile.
Even though you won't see a smoker on the premises, there are many ways to impart a barbecue-like smokiness to meats. The brisket tacos are certainly imbued with the type of smokiness you'll find in sanctioned barbecue competition. It's a light smoke intended to impart flavor and personality, not overwhelm the meats. Tender tendrils of brisket blanketed by molten cheeses nestled in moist, pliable tortillas define these tasty tacos. Carne adovada tacos are also on the menu, but this isn't your abuelita's carne adovada. Armand uses five different chiles, not all New Mexican, on the adovada, imparting a piquancy that'll please fire-eaters.
Barbecue aficionados will appreciate the boneless brisket ribs (any comparisons with Applebee's riblets should subject you to flogging), a plateful of moist, meaty ribs glistening with a chocolate-mole barbecue sauce. The unique sauce alone makes these ribs a great choice, but it's the magnificent meat carnivores will appreciate most. Though not quite fall-off-the-bone tender, each mouth-watering rib has a fresh-off-the-grill flavor. The ribs are served with French fries (which are best eaten with the chocolate-mole barbecue sauce) and a tangy coleslaw.
Desert Grows is no slouch when it comes to desserts. Armand's partner Betina Armijo bakes some of the best bizcochitos in town. Four per plate of these anise-kissed cookies will leave you pining for more when they're done. Neither cake nor pie, bread pudding can be a carb-overload, ultra-decadent dessert too rich for some. For others, bread pudding is a little slice of heaven. Desert Grows' bread pudding cake is so sinfully rich, moist and delicious it may leave you swooning.
If you find yourself in the North Valley and you see a sign telling you you're on Route 99, make your way to Desert Grows where all your cares melt away as you luxuriate in fresh food you can trust.

By Flor Treviño Frey
|Flor Frey
(MBA Class of 2015, Marketing & Management Major)
I just emerged from three fantastic months of studying abroad and chasing the sun through the southern hemisphere; Santiago, Viña del Mar, Valparaiso, Casablanca Valley, San Pedro de Atacama, Calama, Pichilemu, Buenos Aires, Mendoza, Punta Arenas, Puerto Natales, Torres del Paine, and most recently Tierra del Fuego in Patagonia. Three months of backpacks, buses, zodiacs, and airplanes, warm weather, tank tops and cut off jean shorts, sunblock, flip flops and my handy dandy Panama hat, and now in the span of a few days I'll fly north where it is March. Winter. It's a world of snowy white and rain and cold. I had almost forgotten. While I've absorbed my sun-filled adventure, where my winter consists of chasing granite peaks and singing glaciers by day and eating ceviche and spit-fired lamb by night with friends new and old, I am reminded that life is more than what makes it through Facebook and Instagram filters.
You see bold colors and beauty, adventures, friendship and greener grasses. But what you don't see are the weeds; tired eyes and confused expressions, aimless afternoons, questions of what comes next, anxiety, missing home and friends and routine. This is true of being a traveler and incidentally of being a business school student. Brightness of spirit, warmth of community, the burn of challenge and growth; Purpose. It is what binds both of these adventures together.
|Hiking to Torres
And while life on the open road, in school is good, really good, there are still weeds here. Naively, a part of me thought they'd be gone; once I got into business school, once I landed my dream job, once I was studying abroad. The dream must still be out there then. Somewhere. But the unflattering weeds remind me of the untameable things, the struggles we want to rid ourselves of, and they remind me that they are okay. They are part of what makes up this beautiful landscape. Happiness is not out there. Rather, it can be found here, now, whatever our circumstances. Contingent not on a lack of weeds, but solely on us, on our choice to live amongst the weeds and still choose love and light. Living the dream or living the 9 to 5, or somewhere in between, there will always be weeds. Amidst the majestic oaks, the flowers, the calafate bushes, and the mini apple trees, there are weeds. Ironically, my biggest learning abroad came from outside of the classroom. Where I learned to accept the existence of the trees, the flowers, the green grasses, and yes even the weeds. So for now, let's continue to chase the sun, wherever it may take us!

Bought this instead of getting Dr. Brandt�s microdermabrasion because of the price primarily and I�m so glad I did because it�s virtually the same product. Gives super smooth skin and doesn�t irritate, also moisturizing which is nice. Only have to use a little to get results. Probably use once or twice a week if really needed. For reference I have fairly sensitive skin, but I feel like this helps my skin remain clearer.

Perfect once or twice a week scrub polish. Doesnt irritate my skin or damage my skin, the scrub is very fine but abundant so it works very well! Plus I love the all natural ingredients, so I feel good about using it! I was hesitant because it is rather pricey for a drugstore brand, $13 dollars for me at Target, but Im glad I decided to try it out!

This is the closest cheap/drugstore dupe to my favorite exfoliating scrub (Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Skin Exfoliant), which is also similar to Kiehl's Epidermal Retexturizing Micro Dermabrasion.
While the texture is pretty much identical, the scent and moisture is different (less moisturizing). Pound for pound, though, it really does the exact same thing at one fifth of the price or less. Worth every penny of $13...as opposed to $80 or $50 respectively.
This gets rid of all dry patches, minimizes fine lines, and allows products to penetrate better and be more effective. Makeup also applies much more smoothly and evenly (and you need less of it) with regular use...

Bought this on a whim and have been using it for a few months now. It's a really great every other day kind of exfoliant. It's not as harsh as other pumice-based products I've used and while my skin is a little red immediately afterwards, it looks glowing within twenty minutes. I highly recommend this.

A very fine scrub which when applied does not feel too rough and instantly makes your skin feel soft. I use this weekly and have been regularly using it for about two months but I am not a fan. It is reasonably priced, decent packaging and I like Boots stuff but it makes my skin red. No glow just patchy redness and within half a day a few under the skin bumps in places I do not tend to get spots. This is going in the rubbish bin because I have persevered but it just makes me look worse and when I removed my foundation tonight my skin was still blotchy red. Much prefer Dermalogica microfoliant as it is super soft to apply and does render a glow and healthy appearance.

Being that I have oily skin and blemishes, I never shy away from exfoliators. When I received this, I was quite excited to use it. The finely milled pumice really works to smooth away that layer of dead skin cells and renew your skin. Plus with the added bonus of the Ginko as the active plant extract, it really helps to reproduce that collagen and elastin. Definitely purchasing again.
Please only use once a week. Seems too harsh to use more than directed.

I am on my third tube of this finely milled pumice-based scrub. There are plenty of exfoliating pumice beads in this product. I use this on my face and body. I like to use this once or twice a week.

Nice selection of colours, but the texture was so thin, it lasted such a short while and wouldn't withstand a few sips on a cup. The pigment was also not intense enough, giving the dreaded look of highlighting every crevice on my lips. After some time, the brush also became detached from the cap.

I think the packaging is a bit tacky looking for a �6.95 lipgloss. There are much nicer out there! I love the gloss though - super shiny plastic look, moisturising gloss that doesn't wear off super quick. It had no adverse affects on my sensitive skin and looked great. Good colour range.
The only negative things I have to say are the price is a bit steep for me to buy lots of them and the packaging is a bit shoddy! continued >>

I own this in #16 Beige Theoric and cannot go a day without it. I have very tan skin but pale lips and this shade of beige is absolutely perfect on me. It has the perfect amount of pigment and shine-my lips look poutier, but not ridiculously shiny. This is the perfect nude lip gloss for girls like me with dark hair and skin.

One of the better glosses out there. I picked up Framboise Magnific 23 at Sephora for homecoming and it looked so pretty! It doesn't feel sticky on my lips at all and stayed on longer then I expected. I like how shiny it makes your lips too. I'm going to have to try some more colors. They're a bit pricey though. The applicator is very nice. Not spongy but more like a brush. Easier to apply :)

Lovely. It gives a sheer colour, not too sticky. It brigs out the lines on my lips slightly but still tolerable. Love the packaging better than slanted tube. The price is not too outrageous too.

Just bought this in Rose bahamas which is a very sheer pink, almost clear. The applicator doesn't pick up a lot of product, so I need a few coats to get the effect I want, however, I'm still pleased with the results. Really enhances the natural color of my lips and I love the glassy shine.

I usually stick with MAC Lipglass, but I picked this up in #4 (a nice rosy pink). It has a shinier finish than Lipglass due to the bits of glitter, and also because the brush applicator results in a thicker layer. Even the lighter shades are heavily pigmented, so I think this is a better brand for nighttime in lower lighting.
Sells for around $15, which seems fair enough...would repurchase, though some might object to its noticeable scent...

These are the best glosses I've found. I love the fragrance, the brush instead of sponge applicator, and the variety of colors. Each color of gloss is different, there are opaque, sheer, shimmer & no-shimmer shades so it's best to try on each gloss or at least read a review of the individual gloss before purchasing. The texture is silky, they don't dry out my sensitive lips like plumping glosses, but they do volumize a bit and leave a shiny finish. The best part about Effet 3-D glosses is that they stay put. It's a gloss, so not all day or anything but a lot longer than most. The pigment level varies, but even the sheer ones have staying power.

I brought it in mini troop set. I cannot imagine buying them in full size. The minature size ones are already HUGE and they are only $3 per tube!!! I was so excited. It is made by Chanel company after all.
I find it to settle into the lines of my lips (not so attractive). However, I still gave it a five because those colors last a very long time and they made a WONDERFUL lipstick base. Everybody should put lipsticks OVER those glosses.
I especially am enamored with those brush applicators. I hate spongy tip applicators.
