LOGAN, OH, October 10, 2010 (Press-News.org) Guests of the Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls can now tap the innate qualities of an indigenous yet often overlooked fruit for its ability to soften and moisturize the skin and provide a wonderful anti-wrinkle treatment. The Spa just launched its new Pawpaw Facial, starring the large fruit that grows wild in southeast Ohio's Hocking Hills. The unassuming pawpaw is an ideal facial ingredient, offering a natural homegrown way for guests to experience the region while enjoying a therapeutic new facial treatment.
INN THE SPA
Offered at just $45, the 25-minute Pawpaw Facial is created from homegrown pawpaws, mashed and mixed with other local ingredients such as honey, ground oats and organic yogurt. The facial begins with a light facial/lymphatic massage. The ingredients are mixed and spread onto the damp face and neck. Green tea bags are placed on the eyes and the guest is invited to relax for 12-15 minutes. The therapist performs a therapeutic scalp massage while the pawpaw mixture works its facial magic. After the relaxation period, the face and neck are rinsed with lukewarm water.
INN THE KITCHEN AND TAVERN
In addition to its usefulness as a facial treatment, the pawpaw's delightful tropical flavor makes the perfect the mixer in the Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls Tavern. Pawpaw pulp is being used by the inn's mixologists to create a wonderfully tasty Inn Pawpaw Martini. Executive Chef Anthony Schulz has also created a new Pawpaw Creme Brulee, which is instantly receiving rave reviews, beautifully complimenting Schulz's creative, fresh and locally sourced cuisine.
The pawpaw is the largest edible fruit native to the United States. Considered a favorite delicious and nutritious food of Native Americans, European explorers, settlers and wild animals, pawpaws are wild-harvested and are enjoyed by many locals in the Hocking Hills. The pawpaw's unique flavor resembles a blend of various tropical essences, such as banana, pineapple, and mango. Pawpaws are highly nutritious, high in vitamin C, magnesium, iron, copper, and manganese. They're also known to be a good source of potassium and several essential amino acids, and contain significant amounts of riboflavin, niacin, calcium, phosphorus and zinc.
A Hocking Hills Tourism Association Certified Green destination, The Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls is located 1/2 mile above Hocking Hills' scenic Cedar Falls. The region offers a variety of recreational opportunities including hiking, bird watching, canoeing and fishing, as well as exquisite photo opportunities. The Inn's pampering spa offers a full compliment of spa services, including couples massage, girlfriend getaways, bridal parties and group events. Fine American cuisine is the specialty at the Inn's dining room and meals are prepared with the finest organic herbs, produce and ingredients.

Dog Bite Law in Texas
2010-10-10
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 4.5 million Americans suffer from dog bite injuries every year. One in five of these bites cause injuries that require medical attention. Unfortunately, Texas has experienced a high number of fatalities resulting from dog bites in recent years.

"Grey Divorce" a Growing Trend
2010-10-10
Going through a divorce is a life-changing experience. Starting over is never easy, especially for couples who have spent decades together. However, recent trends nationwide have shown an increase in baby boomer divorce rates. The US Census Bureau reports that one-fourth of all divorces that occurred in 2008 were by parties married 20 years or longer. Why are so many boomers deciding that enough is enough?
A lot of couples simply fall out of love. People just grow apart over time, and decide that they no longer have anything in common. When children move away or go ...
Work Injury? Workers' Comp May Not be the Only Answer
2010-10-10
According to the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI), preliminary totals show the number of fatal work accidents recorded in the United States was the lowest since 1992.

Loan Modification Offers False Hope to Many Struggling Families
2010-10-10
Families in danger of foreclosure are seeking modifications of their loan terms in record numbers. It seems like a great solution to a difficult issue, and they reason that a modification will allow them to make their payments regularly and not fall too far behind. They may figure that since they are still paying down the mortgage that paying a lesser amount for a short time will have no consequences. Unfortunately, they are wrong. People seeking loan modifications often face similar credit history damage to those whose homes end up in foreclosure or short sold.
