Baseball rally falls short in 5-4 loss to Florida Gulf Coast
Related Links
Trailing the entire contest, the Dolphins pulled to within one run in the seventh but came up short in their rally as the JU baseball team fell to Florida Gulf Coast, 5-4, Sunday afternoon in Atlantic Sun Conference action at Swanson Stadium.
JU (12-8, 5-4) had its four-game winning streak snapped after leaving a game-high 11 runners on base while striking out 14 times and drawing only one walk.
FGCU (13-8, 7-2) salvaged the series by scoring two runs in the second and once in the third before adding two insurance runs in the fifth.
"It was a good weekend for us but we came up just short in making it a great weekend," said JU head coach Terry Alexander. "We knew it was going to be a difficult task to sweep FGCU but we had a lot of opportunities. We did a good job of getting back in the game but we didn't get that last big hit."
Junior Glenn Witkowski (2-1) was tagged with the loss after allowing five runs on nine hits with a walk and five strikeouts in five innings. Junior Kyle Kriech added three perfect relief innings to keep the Dolphins in the contest.
Richie Erath (3-1) earned the win after allowing two runs (one earned) on seven hits while striking out eight batters. Derek Shaw earned his third save of the year after hurling 2.2 scoreless innings.
Senior catcher Jeremy Gillan led the Dolphin offense by going 2-for-4 with two RBI. Senior right fielder Thomas Myers, senior designated hitter Brad Simmons and sophomore shortstop Jamaal Hawkins each finished with multiple hits. Junior center fielder Chuck Opachich also finished with two hits to extend his season-high hitting streak to 11 games.
Zach Maxfield led the Eagles by going 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI. Josh Upchurch, Steven Wickens, Tim Roberson and Robert Greene also finished with multiple hits.
The Eagles took a 2-0 lead in the second when Maxfield hit a two-run homer to left field. FGCU still had a runner on second with only one out but Witkowski got Josh Chester to strike out swinging and Bobbie Barrie to fly out to left to end the inning.
FGCU made it 3-0 in the third when Mikel Alvarez hit a sacrifice fly to center. The Eagles still had a runner on second with two outs but Witkowski got Brad Roberts to foul out to third where sophomore Glen Johnson made an over the should catch to end the inning.
The Dolphins cut the deficit to 3-1 in the fifth when junior first baseman Alex Martinez hit an RBI double. Simmons led off the inning with a single to right before Martinez cleared the bases with a drive into left center.
FGCU pushed the lead to 5-1 in the bottom of the fifth when Upchurch hit an RBI single and Roberson hit a solo home run down the left-field line.
JU made it 5-2 in the sixth when Myers hit an RBI single. Senior left fielder Kyle Fleming reached on an error by Wickens at short and then advanced to second on a single to center by Gillan. Myers followed with a single through the left side to score Fleming.
The Dolphins cut the deficit to 5-4 in the seventh when Gillan hit a two-run single. With one out, Opachich pulled a ball through the left side. After Fleming drew a walk, both runners pulled off a double steal before Gillan laced a single into right center to clear the bases.
JU will next begin a home-and-home series with UCF beginning at Jay Bergman Field on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. The contest can be seen on tape delay on the Brighthouse Sports Network beginning at 8 p.m. with Tom Morgan calling all the action and Dennis Rasmussen providing play-by-play. The game can also be followed live on UCF Radio Network or through GameTracker.

Any old timers find dimple records to be the most worthless place for retro games? The place has always been bad because of the employees besides the fact that they all have a stick up there ass. Dimple allows employees to take games before they have even been traded in they let them place holds on games while they are still in the process of the trade in.
5 Years ago it was amazing I got finds EVERY TIME i went there for retro games, now everyone has a smart phone and is a re-seller same with the employees. Sucks...
Same experience here with Dimples.
Their employees are extremely rude (the few times I have actually interacted with them). Its like you're bugging them to do their jobs.

I am from folsom, and forced to use amazon most of the time for games these days
Posted 16 May 2013 - 08:33 PM
If you need controllers and accessories they still have an amazing selection.
It's just i wouldn't go out of my way to go there anymore, back in 2004 - 07 i found stuff there hand over fist. Sega Saturn, boxed nes games on the regular etc... 2008 i noticed the employyes and the customers starting to pick up on retro trends. and the last 3 years it's basiclly been a joke with youtube blowing up retro gaming and everyone having a smart phone to go on ebay with.
Dimple from 04 - 07 were the golden years. I have tons of rare games that i paid "dimple prices" for.
Bubble Bobble 2, Snatcher for sega cd, tons of boxed snes games such as harvest moon, FF3 etc... Dragon Force for the saturn, turbo graphx 16 games etc... that all basically stopped the last few years. and started really getting scarce in around 08. I haven't even seen a TG16 or Sega CD game there in years.
With all that said i still do find stuff there from time to time. But the dimple from years ago is gone. But if you're in the area doesn't hurt to stop in, but taking drives out to elk grove or roseville or when they had that davis store that's a waste of time now cause the chances of finding something are slim.

The Association of American Law Schools has placed Villanova University's School of Law on probation for two years for data falsification of its students' grades.
"The association, the main professional organization for law schools in the United States, said it stopped short of imposing tougher sanctions because Villanova had been thorough in investigating the scandal and taking steps to prevent future occurrences," reports Philly.com.
Susan Westerberg Prager, the AALS executive director, wrote in a Nov. 28 letter, that you can read by clicking here, that "the misconduct was intentional and long-standing" and "it is so fundamentally inconsistent with basic concepts underlying AALS core values and bylaws."
The newspaper reported that the grade-inflating stopped around 2009 after the law school's former dean left the school.

#IfObamaWasJesus everyone would have to place this on their bumper. http://t.co/5yced4R0—
Jon Gabriel (@ExJon) November 27, 2012
Conservatives love their hashtag games. The latest game was spawned by Jamie Foxx's ridiculous and blasphemous statement that President Barack Obama is "our Lord and Savior." Oh, and then there is the painting that depicts President Obama as the crucified Christ. If liberals are going to go off the deep end, the rest of the Twitterverse might as well mock them as they fall.
Tweeters wondered what life would be like #IfObamaWasJesus (Note: the hashtag should have used the subjunctive #IfObamaWEREJesus, but that's not the point.) Here are the top ten tweets:
#ifObamaWasJesus he would turn water into Obama Phones.—

Louisville, KY (WDRB)-- Gamers rejoice. The classic arcade games have returned and this time there's no need for quarters.
The 3rd annual Louisville Arcade Expo is attracting hundreds of gamers and pinball wizards.
Organizers wanted to put together a showcase of the so-called greatest era of gaming from the 70s, 80s and 90s.
Best of all, playing the games is free.
It's meant to celebrate a time when the organizer says games were more simple and fun.
"Arcades for some reasons died off in the states and we want to recreate that with the blinging lights of the machines, the pinballs and the Ha-dookins of the street fighter machines too," said Joe Stitch, participant.
The Louisville Arcade Expo runs through Sunday afternoon at the Ramada Inn Convention Center right off Interstate 64 and Hurstbourne Parkway.

This is the most difficult time of year for football fans but thankfully, we just had a very exciting draft weekend. Now, it's way too early to know who will actually be starting for our Denver Broncos but with the lockout back on and no real football news on the way, it's time to speculate.
I've included all of our recent draft picks, which isn't likely to happen, and four free agent pickups -- two of which I've heard others talking about.
First, if I was Kyle Orton, I wouldn't be happy with this draft. A new starting left tackle and two tight ends tells me one thing; Tim Tebow will be the starting QB. However, many teams carry three QB and if you've got a mobile one, that's a good idea. That's why I think one of the first free agent signings will be Tavaris Jackson of the Minnesota Vikings.
Jackson is a solid backup and like Tebow, likes to run around. If your Offense is built with the assumption that your QB may take off running at any time, having a backup with a similar skill set would be a wise move.
Second, it's well known that John Fox likes to run the ball and he likes to do it with two featured backs. This is the no-brainer free agent pick up, DeAngelo Williams from the Carolina Panthers.
Third, Denver needs a solid defensive tackle. With Ronald Fields, Marcus Thomas, and Justin Bannan out the door, someone's got to come in and plug the run. I think Denver has to bring back Bannan. I don't know how likely that is, but I've put him in the line up.
What I do think is likely, is that our new Defensive Coordinator, Dennis Allen, will bring over nose tackle free agent, Remi Ayodele from the New Orleans Saints, since the two have worked together. WalterFootball.com lists him with less talent than Bannan and only lists him as stopping the run "somewhat" well. Not high praise but with rotations from Bannan and support from our linebackers and defensive ends, he should be able to hold the line and let others make plays.
It's unfortunate that the Broncos couldn't find a solid defensive tackle in this draft, or any in the last decade really, but we'll just have to address that next year...or not.
Without further ado:

Athlon Sports recently released its Big Ten Player Rankings: The Top 50 players for 2012, and two-time reigning Big Ten champ Wisconsin highlights the top of the countdown. Five of the first 12 names are Badgers, headlined by Heisman Trophy candidate Montee Ball, at No. 1, and left tackle Ricky Wagner, at No. 6. While Wisconsin dominates the top of the list, Michigan State (9), Nebraska (8) and Ohio State (8) all boast more overall players than Wisconsin (7).
[AthlonSports.com: Big Ten Player Rankings: The top 50 players for 2012]
Here's what Athlon says about the Big Ten's best player:
"Ball emerged as one of the elite tailbacks in his junior season at Wisconsin, leading the nation with 1,923 rushing yards and an astounding 33 rushing touchdowns. His 39 total TDs last year tied the NCAA record originally set by Barry Sanders in 1988. Ball has rushed for at least 100 yards in 16 of the last 20 games dating back to November 2011. Don't be surprised if Ball is on the podium in New York in early December accepting the Heisman Trophy."
Absolutely. Late last month, I offered my preseason Big Ten player rankings, which, to no surprise, also featured Ball atop the list.
Crazy Montee Ball stat: If he carried ball as much as Ron Dayne (1,115), he'd get 108 TDs. Dayne had 63. 1 TD every 10.3 car vs. 1/17.7.—
Brent Yarina (@BTNBrentYarina) August 02, 2012
The biggest disparity between my list and Athlon's is Ohio State defensive end John Simon, who I ranked as the Big Ten's No. 5 defensive player and Athlon had No. 3 overall.
Admittedly, I undervalued Simon. I first realized this at last week's Big Ten media days, where coaches and players raved about the Buckeye. Either way, the Big Ten is loaded on defensive talent this year.
What do you think of the Athlon list?
@BTNBrentYarina Zero Northwestern players? Really? Not ONE Wildcat makes the top 50 players in the conference?—

Update: You can watch the trailer in HD at Apple.
Less than 24 hours after a shoddy, television ripped, E! News voiceover-ed trailer for "Immortals" arrived, the full length official version has finally landed and....it still looks like a riff on "300."
While this spot could definitely benefit from a crisper HD version, by and large, it replicates the same slo-mo, bronze oozing feel of Zack Snyder's warrior film with just as much ponderous line readings and yelling of inspirational speeches. Director Tarsem Singh also seems to have watched some Alejandro Jodorowsky lately as there are definitely a few sequences that are borrowed from his playbook. At any rate, for those expecting something visually different delivered by the director of "The Cell" and "The Fall" they might be disappointed.
Starring Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, Mickey Rourke, Kellan Lutz, Luke Evans, John Hurt and Isabel Lucas, "Immortals" hits theaters on 11-11-11. Check out the longer trailer below. [Popeater/Vlicious]
Lincoln | April 28, 2011 3:41 AM
So we've got set pieces from '300', set pieces from the 'God of War' video game series, including weapons and shots that are basically the same, and some really awful dialogue.
It'll make a lot of money.
morris | April 27, 2011 12:45 PM
Here, Cavill delivers some of the worst acting I have ever seen. I am legitimately shocked.
I have been scrambling around for some sort of excuse, because his performance is below the quality of middle school play. Perhaps Cavill is unable to act against a green screen? It is not a skill he ever had to exercise before and not all actors have the ability to adapt to it.
Or, maybe the answer is simpler, and Cavill is simply the worst actor to be featured as a leading man in years?
Oliver Lyttelton | April 27, 2011 8:04 AM
Part of me likes the way that this basically looks like a feature-length version of the Kanye West "Power" video.
The rest of me thinks it looks like total shit.
Rowdy Bitches | April 27, 2011 4:40 AM
This made my brain hurt. Henry Cavill bores me to tears in everything I've seen him in - this looks to be no exception.
Jenna | April 27, 2011 4:05 AM
Why Tarsem, WHY???
roddymartindale | April 27, 2011 3:44 AM
Looks like the best comedy of the year.
Michael. | April 27, 2011 3:34 AM
I reckon this looks about 7 horribles.
Brad Milne | April 27, 2011 1:51 AM
I think Freida Pinto looks rather ravishing. Aside from everything else, it makes me wonder if Frank Miller, and Zach Snyder get screenwriting or production credits. I hope this is not the best of whats to come from this film.
SoulHonky | April 27, 2011 1:11 AM
The sad thing is that if someone told me that this was the trailer for "301", a straight-to-DVD sequel to 300, I'd have no problem believing it. And while Cavill offers ZERO star quality in this clip, almost nobody comes away from it looking good so I'm going to hope that he has more to offer that's just not shown here.

Title: Can a Darwinian Be a Christian? The Relationship Between Science and Religion
Author: Michael Ruse
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Shows that Christianity need not reject evolutionary theory entirely
Demonstrates that fundamentalist rejection of evolution need not exist
Future work on this topic will have to consider Ruse's work
Does not adequately address original sin and salvation
Explores relationship between Christianity and Darwinian evolution
Argues that Darwinism and Christianity are compatible and need not conflict
Concludes that even orthodox Christian beliefs do not exclude evolutionary theory
Book Review
This is the question which animates Michael Ruses recent book Can a Darwinian Be a Christian? A professor of philosophy and ardent naturalist, Ruse looks more closely at the common beliefs surrounding the idea that Christianity and Darwinian evolution necessarily contradict each other. What he finds, he believes, is that this conclusion lacks real substance. By offering an analysis of the basic beliefs of what might be called traditional Christianity and comparing them to the basic premises of Darwinism, he tries to show how the two can be compatible.
After exploring the basics of both Darwinian evolution and traditional Christianity, he investigates a number of key issues on which the two are usually thought to conflict. Vital to his argument is his contention that the Biblical texts being used do not need to be read literally. Most disagreements seem to be based upon the conclusion that the discoveries of natural science do not conform to a literalistic interpretation of books like Genesis.
To that end, Ruse makes a good case for the position that non-literal readings of these texts is not a new innovation. Rather, it is a part of traditional and orthodox Christian teachings and it is the literalistic fundamentalists who have adopted an unorthodox set of doctrines. A problem here, however, is the question of which texts to read literally and which texts to read as allegorical or metaphorical.
A larger problem arises, however, when it comes to the question of Original Sin. On the face of it, Original Sin does seem to conflict with evolution:
- If one is prepared to accept a metaphorical interpretation of the Adam and Eve story, while insisting on the truth and the relevance of evolutionism of Darwinism, in particular a ready understanding of original sin offers itself.
Once again, Ruse relies upon the possibility of metaphor to find a way to harmonize religion and science:
- Original sin is part of the biological package. We inherit it from our parents and they from their parents: they acted as they did, and because they acted as they did, it is passed down to us.
What Ruses explanation does not address, unfortunately, is how the Fall from Grace connects with the Christian doctrine of Salvation. If evolution is true, then a literal Fall from Grace in the Garden of Eden is not true something which is obviously a problem for anyone who reads the Bible literally. Ruse acknowledges this, but he points out that Christians have, for a long time, accepted such metaphorical readings thus its not an insurmountable problem.

The North Dakota legislature decides to move forward with a plan to create an outdoor heritage fund.
The Senate approved the bill this afternoon.
4 percent of oil and gas tax revenue will be used to establish the conservation fund, with a cap of 15 million a year.
The money could be used for projects such as providing access to public and private lands, restoring fish and wildlife habitat, conserving natural areas for recreation, and developing parks.
"That's what this bill is about, about public access to land. Just getting opportunity so people who have that heritage, love to hunt and care about the land can have access," says democratic Sen. George Sinner of Fargo.
"I'm still not sure how I'm going to vote, I know I don't like it but I wonder if it's worth buying the ransom so we can buy off the wildlife interests who want to control our land. I just want you to know our farmers and ranchers feel that they have been good stewards and they feel this kind of thing is a slap in the face," says republican Sen. John Andrist of Crosby.
An advisory board will oversee the funding and the Industrial Commission will have the final approval of projects.
House bill 1278 now goes to the Governor.

The Fast And The Furious (1955)
American Releasing Corporation
Directed by John Ireland and Edward Sampson
Produced by Roger Corman
Written by Jean Howell and Jerome Odlum from a story by Roger Corman
Last year my Better In The Dark co-host Thomas Deja and I got the idea for a theme for the summer of 2012 which we called "The Summer of Speed" The idea was to do episodes reviewing movies based around cars or where cars play a major role. Naturally we immediately hit on doing an episode on the entire "Fast and Furious" series which you can find here . I also saw this as an opportunity to do the same theme here at The Ferguson Theater and review movies I've been meaning to review for the longest but have been neglecting. Movies such as "Speed Racer" "The Cannonball Run" "Smokey and The Bandit" and "Greased Lightning". Now being anal as I am, I insisted to Tom that I wanted to start with the original THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS made in 1955. He said I could go knock myself out and now I see why. This movie does not follow The Ferguson Rule Of Truth In Movie Advertising in that it is neither Fast nor is it Furious.
Frank Webster (John Ireland) is a man on the run. Doing time for a murder he didn't commit, he manages to bust outta the hoosegow and take it on the lam. The dragnet cast out for him is extensive and closing on him fast. He needs a quick way out of his situation and finds it thanks to Connie Adair (Dorothy Malone) who is driving a Jaguar. While sitting in a roadside diner, Frank overhears Connie telling the waitress that she's on her way to participate in a cross country race where the finish line is in Mexico. Frank sees this as a perfect cover to get away. Frank takes Connie hostage and they head for the race.
The bulk of the movie is taken up with Connie pleading for Frank to let her go even though there are numerous opportunities where she could get away but doesn't take advantage of it. And for a guy who's trying not to arouse any suspicion, Frank does a lot of suspicious things that cause many of the people he meets at the race to raise their eyebrows and ask Connie, "Hey, you sure this guy is okay?"
Turns out that the race officials have changed the rules so that women can't participate in the race saying that they've deemed it "too dangerous for a woman." So Frank has to put himself in the race so that he won't raise any more eyebrows than he already has. It's during his qualifying run for the race where Frank and Connie start to bond a little. He tells her what really happened to get him thrown in jail and she urges him to give himself up and even offers to help. Frank quite naturally tells her to get stuffed. Now somehow through all this back-and-forth, they manage to fall in love. So much so that Frank jeopardizes his freedom to drive Connie's car in what has to be the most boring car race I've seen on film.
Thankfully the movie is only 73 minutes long so if you do decide to watch it, it's mercifully short. Apparently the producers of the Vin Diesel remake bought the rights to the movie just because they wanted the title. And I can understand that: it's a good title. One that is wasted on this movie. It's worth watching if you're a Roger Corman fan and want to watch this because of his involvement in it but that's about I can recommend it for. I really didn't care a poobah's pizzle about anybody in this movie and while Dorothy Malone tries her best to inject some life into her scenes with John Ireland, he's no help at all as his idea of acting is to just stand there and look constipated. Their romance is entirely unconvincing and when I got to the end of the movie I howled, "That's it?"
THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS is available for streaming on Netflix and you can also see it the entire movie on YouTube which I've provided for you right here if you care to see it. If you don't want to, I quite understand.
