Mistake 157- After drunk driving home the guy from the party I mentioned yesterday, we had sex. I don't remember it. I woke up with him in my bed. He then told me about the nightmare drive. I felt more shame from having sex with him than the driving.

Google myself
I tried to Google my blog. I typed "365reasons" and the first 4 things that popped are were "365 reasons i love you", "365 reasons i love my boyfriend", "365 reasons i love her", and "365 reasons to drink."
Love, love, love and alcohol. It is what is on everyone wants.
I went and clicked on the 4th option. I found it depressing. The top story was 365 Excuses to Get Drunk. As if people need an excuse? It was depressing that there is a whole magazine and website dedicated to, not just drinking, but "standing up for your right to get falling down drunk since 1996." I actually might have read the magazine? I think I found a copy of it in a bar and that was where I discovered the term alcoheimers. Man, I was not just an alcoholic. I was a DEDICATED alcoholic. I am surprised I did not get a subscription to the magazine. I guess the closest I ever came to a drunk subscription was a wine club. They sent me cases every few months. The magazine would have been cheaper.
A bit further down, I found a link to an app on a Smartphone for drinking: 365 Reasons to Drink. I wonder if I can get someone to create an app after I complete my year of daily blogs. But my app would be a personal one with my mistakes. Everyday it will beep with my sobriety count and instead of some daily reflection, it will say "remember the time you passed out on the street in Brooklyn" or another drunk mistake.
Crazy that when I went back and added "not" to the front of the word "drink" in the Google search, my blog came up. I guess that is a good thing!
I am not beating myself up over my past and my drunk mistakes. I am realizing how far I have come. I watched Rum Diary tonight. And even though Johnny Depp's character is an alcoholic and there is a lot of my old favorite liquor in the movie, I did not desire any rum. Instead I thought about booking a flight to Puerto Rico where the movie takes place. I even started to look up volunteer opportunities there. (Let me know of any volunteer jobs or companies you would recommend.)
A friend that I had dinner with a couple weeks ago emailed me and said he plans to quit drinking. He has a sobriety date set up for his birthday in a few weeks from now. He said he plans to pick up as much overtime at work to avoid the temptation. He said that helped when he quit smoking. He wants more tips from me. I need to plan a night next week to have dinner with him again.
(I have been very bad with reading other sober blogs lately. I am not being selfish. It has been time consuming to write my daily blog on top of work, school work, and my travels. But I was just reading through some and found this post about Sober and Awkward. Her rock bottom was a car wreck. She hit another car head on. She just got sentenced to 6 months in jail. I cried. I cried for her and for thinking "that could have been me!" I now feel selfish.)
Mistake 142- Many years ago, when I was still new to drinking but already blacking out and making mistakes, I went to a party at my friend's house. Her housemates were away for the weekend. I remember she regretted the party because of lot of stuff got ruined. Drunk guys threw furniture into the pool and over into a canyon. People were having sex in her roommates bed that was off limits.
I had sex in the bathroom. I barely remember someone trying to open the door on us. I remember she was so mad at me. Our friends were mad at me also. I can't remember now, but I think either the guy had a girlfriend or one of my friends liked him.
I helped her clean up the next day. I kept apologizing. 20 years later, she laughs it off as "we were dumb and in college!" When college kids do crazy things like that, it is seen as normal.
Online classes vs Blogging
I started my online classes. I regret already taking two. It is a lot of reading, online discussions, and writing papers. I have never done an online course before so this is a bit scary. Maybe I should have started with one. Like starting sobriety. Don't rush into it all at once.
But I also feel this is a nice introduction to going back to school in the fall 2015. It was just a dumb idea to schedule a camping trip the first week of classes. It is only a 6 week semester so it is a lot of work (and double that for two classes) crammed into a month. I hope to keep up with my blog during this time.
At least I know I will stay sober. No time to drink nor think of drinking! I will be drunk on art history and religious studies until July!
Mistake 131- I was at a frat party. I had a crush on a guy there. I think he knew it. He was an asshole but I liked his pretty, blue eyes. And I was 19 and naive. My lack of self-esteem made the recipe worse.
I got drunk on cheap beers and Zima. I remember looking at him, smiling, and he said "nice shoes. Want to fuck?"
I giggled. I thought that was so funny. "Sure."
We went out to his Ford Explorer. It was the one that used to get me excited when I saw it parked outside of the frat house. We had sex in the back of it. Afterwards, as we walked back to the house, he laughed. He said a homeless guy stood outside the window the whole time watching.
He ignored me the rest of the party.
Boozing and Backpacking
I saw a thread floating around on Facebook about traveling backpackers. I laughed. A lot of that pertains to me. I miss traveling.
But the bits about drinking got me wondering if traveling sober well be difficult for me. It is easy to tell myself "you will save so much money without drinking" but bars do tend to be a natural habitat for backpackers. I used to pick out places to eat in the backpacker areas based on the drink specials. I avoided hostels that did not allow alcohol consumption. If a hostel sold beers, I sometimes had the highest tab by the end of the night. I spent one Christmas Eve getting drunk at an elephant camp in Thailand with other travelers and the guide was shocked that I drank more beers than anyone. Even the German guys. Beer really was cheapest beverage in some countries. That was my excuse when I kept getting drunk in Czech Republic.
I need to remind myself of the times I put my life at risk by getting drunk in other countries. The times I got lost or went home with strangers. The times I lost my wallet or passport. The time I almost got arrested in Mexico or ran nude in Muslim countries. I never drove drunk in other countries because I rarely drove in other countries. (Though once I drove from Tijuana to San Diego after a lot of tequila shots for lunch. I was so worried the border patrol guard would smell my breath but he was more concerned I wasn't smuggling people.)
I have a trip planned in August to Portugal. I am a little nervous. It is my birthday gift to myself. I am already planning to spend the day at art museums and then a nice dinner. As of now, I will be spending it alone. I keep skipping the parts of my guide book that mention clubs and bars. In the past, I would go to bars alone in strange cities. I would sit and observe. And drink. I am hoping I will be able to stay strong and sober while traveling.
Mistake 119- I was staying at a hostel in Melbourne, Australia. I bought a bottle of abstinthe that day. I was so excited because it was still illegal in the United States. I remember I did not know how to drink it properly. I was mixing it with juice and some Gatorade type of drink. I got trashed on it by myself. I met a cute Swedish guy somewhere in the hostel. Either in the kitchen or common area. For some reason, I think it might have been by the soda machine. I don't remember much except we ended up having sex in his dorm room. We were on the top bunk. He had 3 upset roommates. I told some friends about it the next day and everyone said "that is dorm life!" I spent the rest of my stay wondering if any guys giving me strange looks were his dormmates. Never talked to the guy again.
Mothers Day
Happy Mother's day too all moms living in countries where it is celebrated today. I spent last Monday with my mom to celebrate because I am working this weekend. I also think of this day as a day I am thankful I am not a mom.
Mistake 110- I was staying at my sister's house for a few months. My mom spent weeknights there. I went out one night to meet up with a friend that was visiting the city. We met at a pub. He had a friend traveling with him. We all got drunk. I ended up bringing his friend back to the house. I do not remember much but we had sex in the kitchen. The room my mom stayed in was right above the kitchen. I remember my mom yelling my name down the steps from upstairs. He and I stopped, or maybe we were already done, and I yelled up it was me and just having some drinks with a friend. She went back to bed. I have no idea if she knew what was going on. He and I slept on the couch so she knew it was a male friend when she left for work in the morning.
This sounds like some teenage or college antic. I was 32 or 33 years old. It always seemed more shameful thinking my mom might have known about my drunken defects.
Pompous Octopus
I had a friend that made a post on Facebook about the 10 year anniversary of his company. I would not have even noticed it if he did not tag me in it. I turned off following his profile because of his narcissism. I was also very annoyed with the last time we met up.
I had to visit his city last autumn. I was on a "drinking break" but not attempting sobriety yet. I asked if I could stay with him. He told me his roommate might be having someone stay on the couch but I am welcomed to share his bed. I saw no problem with that arrangement. We have known each other a long time and used to have casual sex back in the day. But that was ten years ago. I did not want to have sex with him on this visit or ever again. In fact, I never planned to have sex with him back in the day. It was always drunk sex. I used to always describe him as pompous but a fun drinking buddy. Unfortunately, meeting at the pub usually lead to waking up with him in my bed. I always regretted it but kept drinking with him.
During this last visit, we meet up at a bar. He was slightly drunk. He introduced me to some other drunk friends. I managed to drink my diet Cokes and felt proud I was not drinking beers with them. I told everyone I was not drinking for 2 months to prove to myself I could do it. (These past 106 sober days would have seemed impossible at that time.) But I was tired so we eventually said farewell to his bar buddies (that he just met) and I followed him to his place in my rental car. He insisted he was okay to drive and he got home fine. We walked into his apartment and his roommate was sitting on the couch. She was alone. She did not have someone staying on the couch like he said. That should have been a warning flag. After brief introduction, I went to the bedroom and to the bed that I was to share to sleep.
I did not sleep well that night. He spent the whole night touching me. He kept his hand on my butt or trying to wrap his arms around me.THANK GOD I was sober. I dozed a little but was unable to completely sleep because I was not sure where his hands would go next. I should have said something but I was tired. I should have got up and left but I did not have money for a hotel. I did not want to upset him but I was mad. Did he make up that story about his roommate's friend on the couch to get me into his bed?
I woke up the morning and left for my meeting. I got to the meeting early so I could nap in the car in the parking lot. After my meeting, I texted my ex-boyfriend to see if I could stay with him that night. I should have stayed with him in the first place but I was worried that would be too hard. I still had feelings for him. I thought it would be easier to stay with the friend with the roaming hands. But I did not want to fight Mr Octopus again. The Ex welcomed me into his place and I gave some excuse to Pompous Octopus. I have not seen him since.
In this tag on Facebook, he commented that summer he started his company, he refers to as the "Summer of Sin". He credited me and another friend as the reasons. I felt nauseous. I do not want to be memorialized by him for intoxicated intercourse. I do not want to be memorialized for sex I can not remember. Did we really have that much drunk sex for him to think about me when thinking of a whole summer? It makes me sick and sad. I want to be known for my accomplishments and personality. Not my blackouts and debauchery.
I met up with Pompous Octopus in 2008 in another city. It was Christmas weekend. I had some friends staying with me and we took two cars to a bar near him. It was a thirty minute drive. We all had fun. I did not drink much because I was driving. (It was still close enough after my 2nd DUI for me to be a responsible driver.) I invited Pompous to come to Christmas dinner with us the next night at a friend's house. I explained there would be people from all over the world at the dinner. He accepted the invitation and asked about coming back to my place with us that night. Since my living was full of my friends, I told him he could share my bed. Then he had roaming hands that night. I was mad because I spent the whole evening talking about my new boyfriend. He knew I was dating someone but still thought he had a chance with me. The next morning, he asked if I could give him a ride to his place, an hour away, so he could change his clothes. Once we got there, he changed his mind and said he was going to skip dinner and stay home. Again, I was mad. He never wanted to join us for dinner. He just wanted to get in my bed. He never offered me gas money either.
Thinking back on all of this, I wonder why I stay friends with him. Why do I stay friends with a lot of people?
Mistake # 106- All and any times I had drunk sex with him. I was not attracted to him when sober. We became friends because we both like to get drunk and lived near each other. I do not blame him for the drunk sex. I just do not know why I kept hanging out with a guy when I kept repeating the same regrets.
Getting Over Being Lonely
The other day I wrote about how it sucks to be sober and single. It is hard to meet anyone even though I know that I should not be focusing my energy on meeting someone. I need to be vigilant about my sobriety and do not need a boy (or girl) messing that up. But I have been lonely the past three months. And honestly, it is more about being horny than wanting companionship.
Makes me realize there have been times where I wanted to be with someone and I drank to get the courage to make a move. Or if they shot me down, "I was drunk" was my excuse for being so foolish. Not all of my one-night stands were drunken mistakes. With my low self-image, I felt like I accomplished something if a drunk person I wanted slept with me. I have had some boyfriends complain that I had to get drunk to have sex. It made me wonder if I was a lesbian.
I have an ex-boyfriend, whom I dated for a year and half, and I got him drunk the first night we had sex. We started the night sharing a bottle of wine, which was actually the two of us chugging it while waiting in line for a concert. Once inside, I kept buying two beers in the beer line with the excuse it was to save time. He did not have much money because he was traveling. I encouraged him to drink some of my two cups. I do not remember when our first kiss was and the first sex that night was lousy. I thought it was going to be one night but then we started traveling together and it turned into a relationship. But I always questions his TRUE feelings for me and said "if I did not get you drunk that first night, we would never be together!" It is not a good way to start a loving, commitment.
To solve my "dating" sober problem, I asked a friend for help. Isn't part of recovery reaching out and asking for help?
I texted him: "Trying to figure out how to ask this and if you say no, no problem. But I am finding trying to date sober sucks. Would it ever be okay to come visit for a booty call?"
I did not realize he did not have my phone number saved in his phone. Thankfully he guessed who it was. I responded that it is a good thing he doesn't have many sober friends. He did not think I was serious. When I assured him I was, he said I can visit whenever for what any reason.
But his best response was "you're not giving up on sobriety, are you?" That made me so happy. It made me think he is more concerned for my sobriety than getting laid. That is a good friend. A good friend with benefits! He can be my temporary playtoy. My sex sponsor.
I am just really nervous how this is going to work sober. I have had "fuck buddies" in the past but alcohol was always involved. Sober sex? I guess I need to learn to get used to a lot of activities in a sober state. Sober dancing. Sober concerts. Sober knitting.
Just kidding. I do not know how to knit. But maybe I can learn.
Mistake # 104- I lost my purse with my wallet and a nice jacket from London, but not my phone. I was kicked out of a bar for being too drunk. I do not remember if the night started out with friends but I know I was in the bar alone when kicked out. Since I had no wallet, I could not pay for a taxi. I drunk texted a few friends asking for a ride. One guy offered to come pick me up to take me home. Then another friend offered me a ride. I replied "it's okay, a fuck friend is picking me up." But I accidentally sent the text to the friend that was picking me up. He wrote back "I hope that is not how you think of me."
I waited for him, sitting on the sidewalk, with my back leaning against the wall. I jumped up when his car pulled up and ran to his car. I apologized for the drunk text and thanked him for picking me up. Then I drunkenly explained we were two friends that had casual sex so we sort of were "fuck friends." Our friendship fizzled out after that night.
No more drunk texts is one of my favorite sober benefits.

Biological Activity
|Linsitinib (OSI-906) is a selective inhibitor of IGF-1R with IC50 of 35 nM in cell-free assays; modestly potent to InsR with IC50 of 75 nM, and no activity towards Abl, ALK, BTK, EGFR, FGFR1/2, PKA etc. Phase 3.
|In vitro
OSI-906 inhibits IGF-1R autophosphorylation and activation of the downstream signaling proteins Akt, ERK1/2 and S6 kinase with IC50 of 0.028 to 0.13 μM. OSI-906 enables an intermediate conformation of the target protein through interactions with the C-helix. OSI-906 displays favorable metabolic stability in liver microsomes. OSI-906 fully inhibits both IR and IGF-1R phosphorylation at a concentration of 1 μM. OSI-906 inhibits proliferation of several tumor cell lines including non-small-cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer (CRC) tumor cell line with EC50 of 0.021 to 0.810 μM. [1]
|Cell Data
|In vivo
|OSI-906 inhibits tumor growth in an IGF-1R-driven xenograft mouse model, with 100% TGI and 55% regression at a dose of 75 mg/kg and 60% TGI and no regression at a dose of 25 mg/kg. OSI-906 administration induces different elimination half-lives of itself in dog, rat and mice, the elimination half-lives are 1.18 hours, 2.64 hours and 2.14 hours, respectively. OSI-906 administration at different single dose once-daily in femal Sprague-Dawley rat and femal CD-1 mouse reveal that the Vmax is not dose-proportional to OSI-906 dose. OSI-906 elevates the blood glucose levels at a dose of 25 mg/kg after 12 days administration. OSI-906 administration at a single dose of 75 mg/kg in IGF-1R-driven full-length human IGF-1R (LISN) xenograft mouse model achieve maximal inhibition of IGF-1R phosphorylation (80%) between 4 and 24 hours with plasma drug concentrations of 26.6-4.77 μM. [1] OSI-906 administered as a single dose of at 60 mg/kg in NCI-H292 xenografts mice inhibits uptake of glucose at 2, 4, and 24 hours post-treatment in vivo. OSI-906 inhibits the growth of tumors in NCI-H292 xenograft mouse model. [2]
|Kinase Assay:[1]
- Collapse
Protein kinase biochemical assays:Protein kinase assays are either performed in-house by ELISA-based assay methods (IGF-1R, IR, EGFR and KDR) or at Upstate Inc. by a radiometric method with ATP at 100 µM concentration. In-house ELISA assays use poly(Glu:Tyr) as the substrate bound to the surface of 96-well assay plates and phosphorylation is detected using an antiphosphotyrosine antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. The bound antibody is quantified using ABTS as the peroxidase substrate by measuring absorbance at 405 / 490 nm. All assays use purified recombinant kinase catalytic domains. Recombinant enzymes of human IGF-1R or EGFR are expressed as an NH2-terminal glutathione S-transferase fusion protein in insect cells and are purified in house. IC50 values are determined from the sigmoidal dose–response plot of percent inhibition versus log10 compound concentration. A minimum of three measurements, performed in duplicate, are carried out with in-house assays unless otherwise indicated. OSI-906 at a concentration of 1 µM is profiled versus a panel of kinases using the ProfilerProTM Kinase Selectivity Assay Kit.

The crucial thing about magic - perception - is yet to be fully understood. Too many new ways are discovered every hour on our planet. These are some that I found.
Pantera is the wild cat. Invisible and unhearable she is the most dangerous guarilla fighter mankind can imagine. Her home ist the darkest forest or the dark city. She is quick in mind and in body and hereby nearly uncatchable. She trusts no one; with all the buddys that go their way there is only on end: lonely again, deadly, strong, and alone.
Environment: Jungle, City
+2 dice combat spells
+2 dice manipulation combat spells
+2 dice city spirits
+2 dice jungle spirits
Pantera isnt the big one to help others. She generally suffers a -1 die penalty when casting a positive spell on others (e.g. healing on someone other than herself). Her nature is so homeless that home spirits are very difficult for her to handle. Subtract 3 dice from all home spirits conjuring. Pantera also tends to get into berserker fury. Every time she is wounded make a willpower(5) test. If no successes fall, she must'nt get any magic pool dice for resisting drain and casts all combat spells at their maximum with a minimum equal to her willpower during the whole battle (two-egded, that willpower, dont ya think ?).
Turtle is slow, but strong in mind. Safety is the highest priority on his list. Slow on his actions like Wyrm, he will first fail if things go fast and out of order, but he will recover quickly. Then his mind is cleared to be strong enough to handle. When forced to fight he is very defensive and he doesnt attack until he realizes that there is no way out. Turtle shamans tend to be cybered with dermal plating and the like.
Environment: Sea
+2 dice protecting spells
+2 dice for any spirit of sea
There are no dice penalties, but complete prohibition for: any non-stun combat spell, any non-stun manipulation combat spell. Turtle is slow (remember this) in body and mind. A Turtle shaman must make a willpower(6) test when trying to decide quickly. Also a quickness(5) test is required to take rapidly action. Whenever hurting someone, it is so unnaturally that he must take a 4D stun (on body!).
Leaf shakes with the wind. Bended by the forces surrounding him, no one can really destroy him. He is adept in thinking fast and efficient. No situation will bring Leaf in a helpless state, and he will always be ready for everything.
Environment: City
+2 dice for detection spells
+2 dice for mental manipulation spells
+2 dice for city spirits
Leaf cannot stand very firm to his opinion. He is often irresolute and will always have too much ways for solving a problem on his mind. Choosing between that ways may be difficult. He then tends to choose intuitively (not always for the good of the team). Also, combat is completely not his thing. Subtract 2 dice for all combat and manipulation combat spells.
The liar is a complete renaissance / baroque royal court member. An intriguer like hell, he lies, cheats and believes that this is his good right. He breaks hearts and destroys friendships just to gain his goals. Conscience is a long-forgotten term for him. This one makes life interesting. Often found in corp environment.
Environment: City (Corp, Royality)
-1 TN for social skills
-6 TN for lying
This one is selfish. Whenever trying to do something for someone other than himself, he always gets his mind token off with other thoughts of gaining win for himself, so add +1 TN for all tests during that period. He also cannot work well in the team without causing trouble. But thats roleplay, no rules.
The scientist is a curious, sometimes naive guy. Whatever he does, he does it with innocency in his eyes, even if it is as evil as attacking someone. He believes as long he acts for the freedom of information it is ok. Of course he will try all the time to do no harm, but curiosity comes before moral. The scientist normally has a wide range of equipment and very specialized skills. Alone he couldnt survive on the street, but his enormous intelligence and his willingness to work together in a team make him invaluable in a run. He does not know the word "egoism". Whatever he does, he does it for the sake of curiosity.
Environment: Anywhere but city
-1 TN for technical skills or enchanting (mundane/magic)
-1 TN for knowledge skills
-4 TN for bringing complex information together
As was said, he is naive. Very naive. Whenever trying to detect someone is lying, make a willpower(6) test to see if he succeeds (one success is enough). He is also not willing to use non-stun ammo, calling deadly ammo "unscientific". Add +2 TN for any attacking test that inflicts physical damage.

People of a certain age sometimes find themselves in need of dental care involving dental crowns instead of a filling, or dental bridges to replace missing teeth. Understandably, in light of the present economy, many patients think first of the expense. But the fact remains that postponed care costs more in the long run, both financially and physically.
In the case of broken teeth, extensive decay or an old filling, a crown is intended to hold the remaining tooth structure together. After a root canal, enamel becomes especially brittle - another candidate for a crown.
A badly damaged tooth, left untreated, causes changes in the mouth that disrupt how the teeth work, chewing patterns, and jaw function. Normal eating habits may be inhibited. Tenderness forces the bite away from one side of the mouth and exerts undue pressure elsewhere. Why not just extract this troublesome tooth?
A missing tooth eventually spells oral disaster, meaning permanent changes to your bite. Because the mouth is dynamic, teeth on either side of an empty space will shift. The teeth next to them move, too. With all this movement, periodontal disease could invade soft tissues. Jaw misalignment, and the pain that goes with it, is likely. So tooth restoration to bolster neighboring teeth and keep the "architecture" of the mouth in good shape is the best course of treatment.
After fillings, crown and bridge work is our first line of defense against oral deterioration. This kind of dentistry brings a lot of satisfaction to both patient and dentist. A transformation happens. With the mouth functioning again, people feel better about themselves.
So call your cosmetic dentist today to find out how you can restore your mouth to total dental health. You'll look and feel better.
Most dentists will agree that the tooth crown is at the heart of general dentistry. They've all studied dental crowns in dental school, and some have done their best work replacing a missing tooth and saving the rest.
Research has given them the wherewithal to achieve virtually ideal restorations. They are natural looking, comfortable and stable in the moist environment of the mouth. Cosmetic dentistry professionals are better equipped now more than ever to build strong, long-lasting and cosmetically superior dental crowns.
A crown (or cap) is a restoration placed over broken teeth or a cracked tooth that cannot sustain a conventional filling. By covering the biting surfaces and sides of the tooth, a dental crown strengthens the damaged tooth by binding together the remaining structures. There are basically three kinds of full-crown restorations that can be placed by your cosmetic dentist, each with pros and cons, depending on your situation.
A gold crown or metal alloy crowns have the longest track record for durability, but some people object to the look of metal.
A full porcelain crown - and its new ceramic cousin - looks wonderful and fits well; however, porcelain crowns are usually best on front teeth where stress is not so great.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal dental crowns are our loyal work-horses for single-tooth restoration - they're very strong.
There are elements of finesse in the creation of any crown. The fit is the thing. The teeth must be prepared with opposing teeth in mind so a good bite won't go bad after the crown is placed. The fit must accommodate adjacent teeth, too. And the "margin," the part of the crown nearest the gum, must fit smoothly to protect the health of gum tissue.
And all this effort is to one end: to save a tooth.

Clearwater Central Catholic proved it deserves the No. 1 ranking after defeating Bishop McLaughlin again last week. Osceola is close to the school's first ever undefeated season after it won the Pinellas County Athletic Conference tournament. And Steinbrenner moves into the top 5 after a five-set win over Wharton.
1. Clearwater Central Catholic (15-3)
This week: Tuesday at Northside Christian, Thursday vs. Sarasota Cardinal Mooney, Friday-Saturday at Bishop Moore tournament
Why they stayed put: The Marauders hosted Bishop McLaughlin last week and beat the Hurricanes in four sets. A very well-rounded team that has now won eight straight matches. Linsey Harrison, Kasey Singer and Kylie White have been formidable up front. Victoria Hensley has 570 assists and 31 aces. The regular season ends with a bang. CCC will play at least five matches prior to next week's district tournament.
2. Osceola (19-0)
This week: Tuesday at Pinellas Park, Thursday at Largo
Why they moved up: The Warriors claimed the PCAC championship with wins over Palm Harbor University and St. Petersburg. They have a very real chance of finishing the regular season undefeated, something the school has never done. The week started with a sweep of Shorecrest. Osceola is easily the best team in its district and should be able to go far in the postseason.
3. Calvary Christian (20-2)
This week: Tuesday at Tarpon Springs, Thursday vs. Countryside
Why they stayed put: Last week the Warriors swept Northside Christian. Two matches against public schools finish off the regular season. Calvary Christian is yet another talented Class 3A team that will have a tough road in the postseason. Cathryn Long is third in the state with 338 kills. Her sister, Jennafer, is second in the state in assists with 717.
4. Bishop McLaughlin (21-3)
This week: Thursday at Sarasota Riverview
Why they moved down: The Hurricanes dropped their second match of the season to CCC last week. The only other loss to was Alachua Santa Fe. The Hurricanes were hoping to play Plant this week, but that match fell through, so they will get 24 regular-season matches instead of the maximum 25 allowed. Regardless, they should be ready for the postseason. They made the state final last year, but with CCC also in Class 3A, it won't be easy to repeat.
5. Steinbrenner (20-4)
This week: Tuesday at Wiregrass Ranch
Why they moved up: The Warriors have been impressive lately. They defeated Wharton in five sets last week. Since a loss to Plant, they have won six straight, which includes a win over Sickles on Monday. Nina Moorer has 208 kills to lead the team. But Zoe Chin, Lilou Stegeman and Maggie Miller all have more than 100 kills. Mandy Knipp has 319 assists.
6. St. Petersburg (22-3)
This week: No matches scheduled
Why they moved down: The Green Devils have reached their 25 regular-season match limit, so they will wait until next week to play again. They stretched Osceola to a third set in the PCAC final and only lost by two points. They are by far the best team in Class 6A, District 6, so expect them to go far in the playoffs. Kate Youmans ended the regular season with 195 kills. Nicole Robison had 50 aces and 587 assists, Jenna Davis had 96 blocks and Livvi Harting had 272 digs.
7. Plant (17-7)
This week: Thursday vs. Bloomingdale
Why they moved up: The Panthers went to the Nike Tournament of Champions in Arizona and finished 4-3 against some very stiff competition. They had quality wins over teams like Bishop Gorman of Las Vegas and Scottsdale Christian Academy of Arizona. On Monday, they kept on rolling with a 3-1 win over Wharton. That avenged a loss in the second match of the season. The Panthers are getting better as the postseason approaches and are a dangerous team right now.
8. Wharton (18-3)
This week: Thursday at Freedom
Why they moved down: The Wildcats need to regroup after two straight losses. Granted, they were against district foes Steinbrenner and Plant, but they need some momentum prior to the district tournament. Wharton has played a difficult schedule that should make it ready for the postseason. Seniors Jeanette Henderson (166 kills), Jamie Koopman (57 blocks) and Lexi Morse (59 blocks) have provided leadership all season.
9. Sunlake (15-5)
This week: Tuesday vs. Pasco, Thursday vs. Wesley Chapel
Why they moved up: The Seahawks have won two straight since the Wharton Harvest tournament. That included a sweep of Wiregrass Ranch, a likely district tournament opponent. Caroline Schoonover (180 kills) and Brette Heyman (172 kills) have led the offense all season. Cydnee Reimann has 59 blocks to lead the defense.
10. Carrollwood Day (16-7)
This week: Saturday vs. Sarasota Out-of-Door and Lake Worth Christian
Why they moved down: The week started with a sweep of Boca Ciega. It ends with a tri-match in Sarasota. The Patriots are part of a difficult district that includes Bishop McLaughlin, Tampa Prep and Berkeley Prep. Haley Brown has 218 kills to lead the offense. Jessie Golden has 47 aces. Jalyn Brown has 60 blocks. Kacy Krig has 360 assists.
11. Wiregrass Ranch (13-4)
This week: Tuesday vs. Steinbrenner
Why they moved down: Just one match this week but it is a tough one. The Bulls had won four straight prior to a loss to Sunlake. They are in a tough district that includes East Lake and the Seahawks, so they need to start playing better.
12. East Lake (16-6)
This week: Wednesday at Palm Harbor University, Thursday at River Ridge, Friday vs. Lakeland
Why they moved down: The Eagles are currently going through a rough patch, losing five of six matches. One of those losses was to PHU in the PCAC third-place match. Olivia Thompson, Olivia Aniol and Valentina Echeverri all have more than 100 kills to pace the offense. East Lake is still a top contender in Class 6A, District 5.
13. Northside Christian (15-7)
This week: Tuesday vs. Clearwater Central Catholic, Thursday vs. Boca Ciega
Why they stayed put: The lone loss last week was to Calvary Christian, one of the top teams in the area. It doesn't get any easier against CCC. Unfortunately, both of those schools are in the Mustangs' district, so they will likely need to play their best volleyball of the season next week to get to regionals. Emilia Harding is up to 190 kills.
14. Tampa Prep (16-7)
This week: Tuesday vs. St. Petersburg Catholic, Saturday vs. Newsome
Why they moved in: The Terrapins have won seven of eight matches, and the lone loss was to Bishop McLaughlin. They are in an extremely tough district that includes Berkeley Prep, Bishop McLaughlin and Carrollwood Day. But it looks as if they will be competitive with whomever they play. Gracie Kiser has 254 kills to lead the team. Eighth-grader Olivia Hart has 55 aces. Maggie Babbitt has 292 digs. Pilar Taylor has 566 assists.
15. Keswick Christian (19-3)
This week: Tuesday at Indian Rocks Christian
Why they stayed put: The week started with a 3-1 win over Dixie Hollins. The Crusaders should be a challenger for the district tournament title next week, along with Academy at the Lakes and Hernando Christian. Sydney Jackwin is over 300 kills and is clearly the one to watch on offense. Rylee Hannon (441 assists) has been good at setting her up all season.
On the bubble
Indian Rocks Christian (13-6), Sickles (10-10), Wesley Chapel (13-8), Robinson (9-4), Berkeley Prep (11-8), Tampa Catholic (13-9), Largo (12-8)

BERNARDSTON — The Grover family's decision to pursue a solar panel installation for their field at 32 Fox Hill Road was not made impulsively.
Over the last 25 years, Butch Grover said, the expenses for the family's dairy farm has tripled, while the price of milk has gone down.
"We don't know whether that milk is going to be worth 14 dollars a hundred (hundredweight, 100 pounds) or 22 dollars a hundred, but we know it's going to cost 25 dollars a hundred to make it," Butch Grover said. "It's made miners out of farmers. It's taking away what we've got invested in the land. … We've got to figure out a way of getting somewhere near what we've got for expenses."
Butch Grover and his wife, Donna, are the third generation to operate the 106-year-old River Maple Farm. Their daughters, Rena, 24, and Regina, 26, want to be the fourth.
But with markets for dairy farmers becoming increasingly difficult, the family has been forced to find alternative ways of using the land. The options are limited though.
Bernardston's soil isn't particularly rich, Butch Grover said, so farming vegetables wouldn't work.
Several developers have approached the family about buying pieces of farm land for low-income housing projects. But that would only be a temporary fix to a long-term problem, Donna Grover said.
"Then we'll just keep juggling until we need another fix," she said. "And then we'll sell another part, and it will keep going like that."
"We don't want to develop the land," Regina Grover said. "That's the last thing we want to do."
The solar panel installation will give the Grovers the income they need to continue operating their dairy farm without making the land unfarmable in the future. The plan is to drive the solar panels directly into the soil, without concrete bases or any other permanent alteration to the land. After 25 years, the solar panels will be removed or renewed, depending on what the agricultural market is like then.
The family chose to work with the Clean Energy Collective because they see it as a "community-focused" company, Regina Grover said. Local residents can buy into the program for a reduction to their energy bill.
The project would support the local economy, the Grovers say.
"We need to realize, where is our electricity going to come from?" Regina Grover said. "Is it going to come from Canada, or are we going to make it ourselves?"
"I just wish the town could embrace this project," Donna Grover said. "Years ago when the electricity came in, they had parades in town. Now people worry about what it's going to look like."
