Details On Nighttime Lingerie Robe Styles And Materials

By Chris Channing

Some of us are morning people, while others are fine with skipping it and sleeping until the afternoon. Whichever the case, lingerie robes are popular for women who like to sleep comfortably and do so in style. Many styles exist to suit any taste in fashion.

The classic long robe is a staple in the lingerie robe industry. Usually made of cotton, these robes cover the entirety of the legs and arms. Long robes are sometimes hard to maneuver in when doing tasks such as making breakfast or doing morning chores, so they are best suited for bed wear and small activity. Some women also dislike them in warm temperatures.

Short-cut lingerie robes are better for maneuvering in, and are more stylish and in with today's fashion. Made out of silk and other fine materials, short cut lingerie robes are better for doing chores in the morning and cooking breakfast. They are also commonly light and extremely comfortable to wear- making them the most popular among women seeking robe lingerie.

The classic monotone robe is something of the past. Stylish lingerie robes of today use styles of other cultures to make for truly impressive designs. An eastern-style robe might have oriental designs as an inspiration. Stylized lingerie robes are built more for style, and thus, it's best to buy several so that you have many designs to wear around the home. Also consider going festive by buying a Santa or cupid themed robe.

Robed lingerie is something every bride should have. If you know of a soon to be bride, why not buy an inexpensive set of robed lingerie for the many fruitful days to come? It's a gift that keeps on giving during the years of comfortable nights and memory of the night the couple married. Bridal robes tend to stick to the main bridal color of white, but can be found in light hues of colors if you want to tailor it to the actual wedding dress the bride will wear.

You might be surprised to read that robed lingerie can be bought at low prices- even as low as $15. Robed lingerie has drastically dropped in price due to new designs flooding the market. Name brand designs can be purchased at $30 or more on average, but if you are good at shopping you can find an even better deal. Night clothing won't cost an arm and a leg- making it a perfect gift to give to others or yourself.

In Conclusion

It was once standard that those who had robed lingerie were in the upper class of the social chain. But lingerie is so inexpensive these days that even those on a limited budget can get several pairs for a great price- so long as you take the time to shop around for the best deal.

Ingredients That Make For A Healthy Dog Food Mixture

By Chris Channing

With many families considering their pets to be "one of the family," the problem of knowing what food is best for the pet while keeping within budget becomes a task to work around. Even common pet foods may not be healthy for your dog, so it is best to educate yourself on what should and should not be in your dog's food.

Humans and canines both need protein to keep a stable immune system and for healing after an illness. Protein that comes from cheap sources isn't considered to be so beneficial, but protein derived from red meat and chicken will do their best to "keep the show running." Dog food producers that use real meat charge more money, but the end product is much more tasty and healthy for dogs.

Fish isn't something that dogs eat a lot of; it's something that is more associated with cats. Fish has the essential fatty amino acids that is important for show dogs that need a fine coat and healthy exterior. It also stimulates the healing process. Herring and trout are common sources of fish in dog food products.

The bulk of the meal will likely be comprised of grain- usually wheat. The wheat that is mixed in with the dog food should be of fine quality to promote healthy digestion. Look for a whole wheat blend that offers plenty of fiber and carbohydrates for digesting food and maintaining energy. Wheat products are preferred over corn-based products that are harder for the canine to digest.

Those who are keen on feeding pets know that rice is excellent when a dog has a digestion problem. Rice that is present in dog food acts the same way- enabling the dog to get through digestion problems and keep the digestion tract healthy for the future. If your dog seems to have serious problems on a long term basis, it is probably safer to be proactive and get the pet to a veterinarian for a routine health check up.

If you are given the choice of eating a fresh fruit or one that has been canned in manufactured circumstances, odds are you will go for fresh fruit. The idea is the same for pets, although not just for taste. Organic foods that are put into dog food are much more healthy than the synthetic ingredients that are put into dog food. Factory made food isn't always bad, but the majority of dog food is sold so cheap for a reason.

In Conclusion

There isn't a great deal of time that a canine will be able to share with a family- so it's best to treat the pet to good food and keep it healthy as possible. Canines also appreciate food that is tasty, so experiment with several types of dog food to get a healthy and cost effective product.

Boston Bruins' Scoring Legend Phil Esposito

By Ross Everett

Although many of his offensive records have now been left in the dust by Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, former Boston Bruins/New York Rangers center Phil Esposito is still regarded by hockey experts as one of the greatest players in NHL history.

Esposito was born in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario and his prodigious hockey talent quickly became apparent. He was signed by the Chicago Blackhawks as a teenager, and made his NHL debut in'64 quickly earning a spot on the teams top line between Bobby Hull and Marcel Dionne. In'67, Esposito was traded to the Boston Bruins along with Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield. Within a few years Hodge and Stanfield blossomed into All Stars, while Esposito quickly took his place alongside his former teammate Hull as the best scorer in the league. Suffice to say that Boston fans were of the opinion that theyd gotten the best of the deal.

Esposito began to shred the NHL record book in Boston, prompting Bruins fans to display car bumper stickers that read Jesus Saves; Esposito scores on the rebound. In'69, he became the first NHL player to top the 100 point mark (combined goals and assists) for the season"he obliterated the record with 126 points, which would be the first of six times that hed top the century mark. He topped 100 points in five straight seasons between'71 and'75, missing a sixth straight season by a single point with 99 in'70.

In the'70-71 season, Esposito smashed the NHL record for most goals in a season with 76. That record stood for over a decade until Wayne Gretzky scored 79 for the Edmonton Oilers in'81-82. Gretzky also broke Espositos single season points record of 154. Even now, only four other players including Gretzky have scored more than 150 points in a season and only five others have scored more than 76 goals in a season. Perhaps the most amazing element of Espositos game was the frequency with which he put the puck on net"Espo had 550 shots on goal in'70-71. No one has since come close"in fact, just last Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals became the first player to come within 100 shots of Espositos mark.

In'75, Esposito was traded with Brad Park to the New York Rangers for Brad Park, Joe Zanussi and Jean Ratelle. He had slowed somewhat, but was still enough of a valuable player and team leader that he was named the Rangers' captain. He remained a very dangerous scoring threat until the end of his career.

After his retirement in'75, he remained active in hockey. He served as the GM of the Rangers before helping secure an expansion team for Tampa, Florida in'92. Esposito served as the President and GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning until'98. Esposito now hosts a daily hockey radio show on XM Radio, and has even done some acting appearing in a recurring role as a fire chief on the TV series Rescue Me.

A Good Way To Earn Extra Income Through Article Writing Part-Time

By John Farcikan

I am a case in point that a good way to earn extra income is by article writing. Initially when I started doing this I wanted to make some extra money for luxuries, and I wanted to know how to work online so that I would have something to fall back on if the, you know what hit the fan, in my job.

I was employed full time and very interested in being able to make money online. I started article writing part-time and "bam" like a bolt out of the blue I lost my job. My first reaction was, I needed another job. But I gave it some though, shaved of my hair so that I would be too embarrassed to go job hunting and started writing full-time. It has been far from easy, increasing my earning potential to more than just a living. I lost my relationship, which was no big hardship, but did knock me off kilter, but what I did get was freedom. The freedom to write my own salary check and learn to be without a partner who though I was a loser because I refused to go back and work for a boss.

An extra $500 a month can make a huge difference in your life, and this is easy with article writing, you only have to make $125 a week. It can make a massive impact on your finances, and be used to pay off debt or for creating other streams of income. With me, things were a little different.

I have taken risks like you cannot believe to get what I want out of article writing and while I wouldn't advocate that anyone do this, if you have nothing to lose, go for it. I hated my job, I didn't hate the car, salary, cell phone, expense account and other perks, but the job I hated. I realized this when I lost it and refused to work for another boss. Now I have the freedom to say this.

Freedom is one of the most valuable commodities anyone can have and I soon learned this when my time became my own. It was up to me how much I earned, I could set a goal for myself and meet it.

After 18 months, a massive drop in earnings, and hard work, I am able to look at my efforts and be proud. I am also able to put some of my earnings into making additional streams of income by leveraging, and it works.

This may not be the best way to earn extra income, but I know that it works. I also know a lot of other article writers who will agree with me. It works for me, and if it can work for me, it can work for you too.

College Football Flashback: 2008 SEC Championship Game

By Ross Everett

The Florida Gators would go on to win the NCAA Football Championship, but it was a 31-20 victory over #1 ranked Alabama in the SEC championship game that got them there. The Gators scored-- 4th quarter points to secure victory in a contest that was an epic struggle for three quarters with five lead changes and two ties.

The Gators struck first, taking a 7-0 lead on a three yard Tim Tebow TD pass to Carl Moore. The Crimson Tide quickly answered, tying the score on an eighteen yard run by Glen Coffee and taking their first lead of the game at 10-7 several minutes later on a 30 yard FG by Leigh Tiffin. Florida came right back in the second quarter, tying the game on a Jonathan Phillips' yard FG and taking a 17-10 lead into the halftime break on another Tebow TD pass, this one to David Nelson from five yards out. Alabama regained control in the third quarter, tying the score on a 2 yard Mark Ingram touchdown run and then regaining the lead at 20-17 in the final seconds of the period on another Tiffin field goal. Florida put them away for good in the fourth, however, on a 1 yard Jeffrey Demps TD run followed by Tebows third touchdown strike of the day.

As was the case so often during 2008, Tim Tebow was the big star for the Gators. The junior QB had 216 yards passing with 3 TDs and no interceptions plus fifty seven yards on the ground. Florida head coach Urban Meyer praised Tebow effusively in his post game comments:

"I've had some great players, and I've got some great players on this team. But I've never had one like this. Tim's got something special inside him. I'm not talking about throwing. I'm not talking about running. I'm talking about making everyone around him better. That fourth quarter was vintage Tim Tebow.

Alabama coach Nick Saban wasnt about to argue with him:

"He's a great competitor. He takes his teammates on his shoulders a lot. They have a lot of confidence he's going to make plays, and they play that way. They scored two touchdowns where we had them covered about as well as we could cover them."

According to cornerback Joe Haden the football world underestimated the Gators' toughness:

"Our team is a tough team. The only reason they look past our toughness is our speed. They said we were a speed team and they were a tough team. We're just as tough. We can still be pretty and fast and tough at the same time."

Even in defeat, it was impossible to overlook the remarkable resurgance of Alabama football. In only two years at the helm, Nick Saban has amassed a'-7 record at Alabama with no signs of slowing down.
