A reader writes:
I was quite young when Vatican II came to the church. Can you tell me what the Lenten regulations were pre-Vatican II? I hear some people say that there was no eating of any animal product (including eggs and dairy) for all 40 days. I hear some people say that you could have meat on Sundays during Lent. One of my aunts said that you had to fast (one large meal per day) for all 40 days. What exactly were the regulations?
This is a great question, and the answer is that all of the things the reader has heard are correct--yet some of them are wrong, too. How can that be?
Let's start with the one thing that the reader--and almost all of the rest of us, too--is certain of: that the rules for fasting and abstinence changed as part of Vatican II. But just as the revision of the liturgical calendar and the promulgation of the Novus Ordo Missae (the current ordinary form of the Mass) were not part of Vatican II (though many people think they were), so, too, the revision of the rules for fasting and abstinence (not just for Lent but for the entire year) coincided with Vatican II but were separate from it.
That revision was made by Pope Paul VI in a document entitled Paenitemini, which "invites everyone to accompany the inner conversion of the spirit with the voluntary exercise of external acts of penitence." Rather than relieve the faithful of the requirement to do penance through fasting and abstinence, Paul VI called them to do other forms of penance as well.
Paenitemini did, however, set new minimum requirements for fasting and abstinence. Down through the centuries, the Church has adjusted the regulations to fit the spirit of the times. In the Middle Ages, in both the East and the West, eggs and dairy products, as well as all meat, were forbidden, which is how the tradition developed of making pancakes or paczki on Fat Tuesday. In the modern era, however, eggs and dairy were reintroduced in the West, though they continued to be forbidden in the East.
My Father Lasance Missal, published in 1945, gives this summary of the regulations at that time:
- The Law of Abstinence forbids the use of flesh meat and the juice thereof (soup, etc.). Eggs, cheese, butter and seasonings of food are permitted.
- The Law of Fasting forbids more than one full meal a day, but does not forbid a small amount of food in the morning and in the evening.
- All Catholics seven years old and over are obliged to abstain. All Catholics from the completion of their twenty-first to the beginning of their sixtieth year, unless lawfully excused, are bound to fast.
As for the application of fasting and abstinence during Lent, the Father Lasance Missal notes:
Fasting and abstinence are prescribed in the United States on the Fridays of Lent, Holy Saturday forenoon (on all other days of Lent except Sundays fasting is prescribed and meat is allowed once a day) . . . Whenever meat is permitted, fish may be taken at the same meal. A dispensation is granted to the laboring classes and their families on all days of fast and abstinence except Fridays, Ash Wednesday, Wednesday in Holy Week, Holy Saturday forenoon . . . When any member of such a family lawfully uses this privilege all the other members may avail themselves of it also; but those who fast may not eat meat more than once a day.
So, to answer the reader's specific questions, in the years immediately before Pope Paul VI issued Paenitemini, eggs and dairy were allowed during Lent, and meat was allowed once per day, except on Ash Wednesday, the Fridays of Lent, and before noon on Holy Saturday.
Meat and all other items were allowed on the Sundays in Lent, because Sundays, in honor of the Resurrection of our Lord, can never be days of fasting. (That is why there are 46 days between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday; the Sundays in Lent are not included in the 40 days of Lent. See How Are the 40 Days of Lent Calculated? for more details.)
And finally, the reader's aunt is correct: The faithful were required to fast for all 40 days of Lent, which meant only one meal, though "a small amount of food" could be taken "in the morning and in the evening."
No one is obliged to go beyond the current rules for fasting and abstinence. In recent years, however, some Catholics who have desired a stricter Lenten discipline have returned to the older regulations, and Pope Benedict XVI, in his message for Lent 2009, has encouraged such a development.

Awesome post.Really thank you! Will read on…
- February 13, 2013 at 11:25 am(2) Julicate says:
Is not true that fish was recommended to eat because there was such in excess of fish many generations back. That a pope, don't know his name, made it a rule to eat fish? For that reason I don't understand why we can't eat meat if the law was man based?! Do we not eat meat because Jesus died on the cross for us and his flesh represents the meat? Just as the host is his body?
- February 13, 2013 at 4:28 pm(3) Scott P. Richert says:
Julicate, it's not true that Catholics were required to eat fish because their were too many, or that abstinence from meat has anything to do with a pope who profited from it. (That Saint Peter was a fisherman is irrelevant.)
In the Jewish world in which Christianity arose, fasting meant not only restricting the amount of one's food but also abstaining from meat. When Christ fasted, He followed those traditions. When His disciples fasted after His Death and Resurrection (and the Acts of the Apostles makes it clear that they did indeed fast), they followed those traditions.
We don't abstain from meat because it is bad; on the contrary, we abstain from meat because it is good. It is a sacrifice, designed to bring our bodies under the control of our souls, and to remind us that our ultimate goal is not pleasure in this world but eternal life in the next.

My sisters & I want to know exactly what year were the regulations for Lent changed? None of us remember actually doing the 1 full meal a day bit but we remember our parents doing it. I need exact year!! (A bet rides on this!) Thanks
- February 18, 2013 at 2:05 pm(5) Scott P. Richert says:
Kathy, Paul VI issued Paenitemini, the document which made the revisions, on February 17, 1966. There is no starting date mentioned in the document, but since Ash Wednesday 1966 was February 23 (six days after the document was released), I assume that the changes took effect that year.
- October 29, 2013 at 7:52 pm(6) Maureen says:
So, is breaking these laws a mortal sin (now, or pre- Vatican II)? My parents (fallen away) think it's absurd that someone would go to hell because of a rule like that. Can't find proof one way or the other.
- March 7, 2014 at 10:05 am(7) Mr. C says:
Failure to follow the requirements of fasting and abstinence, as officially promulgated at the time, is always serious matter. To rise to the level of a mortal sin additionally requires knowledge and intent.

Brandon Merriweather from the Patriots. Free Safety
Brandon Tate Patriots WR
Donnie Avery Rams WR
Tavares Gooden LB Ravens (Would be good for depth IMO)
Seyi Ajirotutu WR Chargers (Would love to grab him)
I think these four players could help our team in some way... especially the WR. Our receiving core needs some help. These guys could give us another reliable option and I think Ajirotutu would come on and be our 3rd. The guy is a good player.

Abstract reasoning tests (also known as inductive reasoning and/or diagrammatic reasoning tests) are used to assess a candidate's general intellect and ability to work out new concepts and abstract ideas, rather than testing their prior knowledge. Abstract reasoning questions require candidates to recognize patterns and similarities between shapes and figures. This type of test is useful to employers because the ability to answer abstract reasoning questions is independent of educational experience and cultural background, and can be used to provide an objective indication of intellectual potential.
You can take practice abstract reasoning tests and improve your performance - click here
These tests are most useful to employers when the job being applied for, involves dealing with abstract ideas or concepts that you cannot prepare for, as many technical jobs do. As you would expect, these tests are most often used when the job you are applying for involves: a high degree of problem solving; dealing with complex data or concepts; developing new strategies or policies, and/or; performing non-routine tasks where initiative is required.
However, abstract reasoning questions may be used by any employer as an assessment for any position, as they are seen to be a good measure of general intelligence, and test your ability to perceive relationships and work out any co-relationships, without any prior knowledge of language or mathematics.

In Russia if a fight falls through just throw a shout out to the audience for a quick replacement. Toss him some gloves and a pair of shorts and he is now a pro MMA fighter.
Thank reader smellydachshund for the link.
Sign him up Dana!
Thanks Bruno….great way to start the day!!! I love the Rocky stories!!!
Nice entrance for the other fighter. Funny setup
Love it….
He knew how to fight he was loving the chance, that double leg was a fighters double.
You can almost smell the Stolichnaya.
The obvious thing to do to a guy that's knocked out is to run up to him and place your thumb in his mouth.
In Russia, handwraps and cups are for pussies. Nice fight bud, enjoy your prize, half of a heavy bag.
Gotta be a plant. Funny none the less.
In Soviet Russia, fight finds you.
That was nice. But I doubt the "real" fighter had more then a couple of months of expereince. The guy in the crowd probably has more training then he does.
Guy is strong and has a good right hand but fighting technique looked like absolute sht. Lucky the other guy had his girl hair messing with him.
Clearly he had some skills in grappling and striking, but it was a fun story.
Nice KO lol
whats with the announcer standing behind the guy at 2:00 acting like a f** with no morals? Stupid butt pirate.
hmmm … something smells fishy with this lol .. "random" crowd guys punches looked a lil too clean and crisp except for maybe the first haymaker lol .. stillcool video though !!
Bruno… ….we love you x
long hair always gets in the eyes and distracts u and ur more concerned about getting it out of ur eyes rather than finding ur footing and rhythm….bummer
The guy from the crowd is a fighter. He said he was training to fight for another promotion but the fight got cancelled.
Oh and he also said that his background was wrestling
hell yea dude is badass lol
This used to be pretty common in North America too
2 piece and a biscuit
nothing like waking up in a sandbox to the smell of cat s*** in a Russian ghetto
There isn't any female mma in russia because they would get sand in their vaginas
Then he retired…… Awesome story! the other guy is way too worried about hair,lol!!!
The long haired guy was set up.
Seems like the long hair guy is the one whom is actually not a fighter, and they told him that they would pick a random volunteer non fighter from the crowd, while actually there was a fighter planted in the crowd and it was not some random guy.
What?! The guy only won half-a-punching bag?! At least Tyrone Spong won a Boost Mobile Phone for his efforts!
So this was completely spontaneous, yet they had the right size gloves and right size shorts at the ready. Not to mention they had the graphic with his name on the screen. Pretty sure this was not spontaneous.
you got to love russia man!! no stupid gay parade
they are the last men standing, everybody as been so f****** feminize in the west it's reeks ..
lol wow… no cup. I find that hard to believe. Who would take a fight with no cup?!
The guy is a fighter, he says that he was on casting to participate in this show and something like that. But anyway no warmup no game plan=)
About a cup. Believe me, in russia people who like to fight don't care about that. But i don't say it's ok, actually it's not=)
UFC + WWE = this.
I call bs. Guarantee they had a handful of fighters ready to step up if someone didn't show, that's if the whole thing wasn't completely staged.

UFC 101: Declaration MMA fight video of Johny Hendricks vs. Amir Sadollah. This will be Amir Sadollah first fight since recovering from a leg infection. UFC 101 took place on August 8th at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia.
Great upset or reality check?
Wow, that stop seemed premature to me. Not only that, but I think Amir was hit on the back of the head at least 3 times. I don't think it should have been stopped, but stood up and then the Dr could have seen if it was ok for Saddalla to continue. If not, it should have been ruled a "no contest".
Crappy, hulking Mergliotta–bad ref.
NOOOOO! It was early. He wasn't even hitting him.
I can't blame the ref, though. He couldn't see where the punches were landing.
a very disappointing fight ………
Thank you Bruno for the quick post!
Miragliotta should be reffing middle school wrestling. That was absolutely awful. You cannot stop a fight because you have a bad angle. Freaking hack!
I think that Dan needs a new career. I thought maybe the first couple times were bad luck but he isnt getting any better.
not only that, right when amir was getting up they stopped it…
IM FROM RICHMOND AND IM PISSED!! Amir got hit once and then fell over and then Hendricks following barrage of s*** punches that didn't even land caused the fight to be stopped?!!? F*** THESE MOTHER f****** REFEREES. THEY NEED TO START TRAINING THESE IDIOTS BETTER.
Bad stoppage. Amir got rocked but I think he lowered his head to dodge those punches and THEN get up. Hendricks missed with about 4 punches in a row AND he was throwing them to the back of Amir's head. HORRIBLE stoppage.
Check on the fighter before blindly turning your head and stopping the fight!
Dont they learn this in Ref school??!?!
^ no doubt. Murgliotta is notorious for this s***. he doesn't know what he's doing. This would have been a slugfest. Hope there's a rematch in the works.
rite first thing first early stoppage when u watch the replay amir was getting back to his feet also he was got hit on the back of the head 6 times really bad reffing if u ask me i was ragin last night really wanted to see amir in action for like a year then it finally happnens nd this is what i get aghhhhh it bloody pish
badddd stoppedge he was clearly on his way to getting back up..but at the same time safety alwayz first..
Everyone thinks every stoppage by this guy is premature. I know let's let Hendricks hit him over and over until the round ends so he kills him. Amir didn't try to move until the ref got in between them. As far as the guy complaining about angles. I think the guy standing five feet away has a better angle than everyone watching on tv. Amir was a fraud like most "Ultimate" Fighters.
i agree with darkmetal… early stop and there were some blows to the back of the head. miragliotta should have taken time and restarted. lame finish.
Premature stop by referee. I agree with these guys being taught a bit better!
Hendricks should have been warned for the back of the head hits!! The punches were VERY poor by hendricks!
Very dissapointing by the outcome!!
what song did Amir Sadollah come out to? that was ridiculous? i'm genuinely curious to know what song that was though, so if anyone knows..thx
Amir got uppercutted a billion times. Yea it looked like a few strikes to the back of the head but he was done anyway. He would have just got tore up even more. He was just to aggressive.
Dan miragliota is a f****** retarded he f***** lot of fights in UFC and in Strikeforce
early stop for sure! amir got rocked but the fight should of went on…
FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK This early stop this is fake ultimate fighting chempionship:(( fighters spend every thing training hoping for win this mather f****** FUUUKC all this
what the F*** was this?
this reff is a f****** faggid!
go home m***********
amir wasn't even out his legs never went limp and his head never dropped either. DAN is the worst ref in the business. I miss you BIg John.
What was that? 12 unanswered, undefended punches to the head? Yeah, f*****' ridiculous stoppage.
I'd like to know why Hendricks out of no where started bending over like he was in some intense pain. i noticed it after his last fight he went to stand up and he made the exact same motion as he did in this fight. it seems to be maybe a rib or hand injury by the way he was walking? does anyone know?
Wow to the guy that posted that the ref was right and he ha d a better angel than us. you are a f****** goof!!. Clearly u dont know s*** about mma or fighting in general. That was a horrible stopage not only was Amir getting back to his feet BEFOR the ref steped in he was getting punched in the back of the head. If the fight was being stoped it should of been for a point taken away from HENDRICKS for ILLEGAL blows to the back of the head not because Amir wasnt defending himself . SO no only is Mirgiota a f****** DUMASS BKIND GOOF BALL DOUCHE BAG YOU ARE MORE OF A WASTE OF AIR THAN HE IS… dumass douche bag goof
…. Says, in 8-9-2009 at 06:08:21 from 220.127.116.11
Everyone thinks every stoppage by this guy is premature. I know let's let Hendricks hit him over and over until the round ends so he kills him. Amir didn't try to move until the ref got in between them. As far as the guy complaining about angles. I think the guy standing five feet away has a better angle than everyone watching on tv. Amir was a fraud like most "Ultimate†Fighters.
Sadollah got dropped like he was hurt, then made no attempt to defend himself.
Regardless of if the shots were on the back of his head, he HAS to defend himself: 1. For his own good, of course, and 2. To show the referee he's ok.
Dropping like that (1) and not attempting to defend himself (2), are not coincidences, it's an obvious trend.
Doesn't matter who you where rooting for, terrible stoppage. I don't understand why Miragliotta still has a job reffing. This eye poking, fighter pushing, wrong hand lifting embarrassment to MMA needs to lose his job after his newest ruined fight.
Oh my god… every punch he threw at Amir on the ground was to the back of his head. Shoulda called the Doc in, and it woulda likely been ruled a no-contest.
yes, the punches were to the back of the head.
no, sadollah was not intelligently defending himself.
yes, he was getting back to his feet.
no, he was not going to win that fight and miragliotta probably saved him some brain damage.
was this dirty ref margoliotta
doing , im sure amir was pissed at
him along with his 50 000 fans.
what the F*** was this. he was f****** fine, that dumbshit stopped it when he got up. and that idiot hendick just kept landing shots to the back of the head.
Glad to see a wrestler from OK doing well, but that WAS a bad stop. I watched this live on a '65 in HD, it was crystal clear. Amir, was rocked for sure, but he was looking right at Johnny and was getting to his feet. He was probably going to get finished either way, but you can't end a fight on speculation. I've seen fighters recover from much worse and win.
that was kinda controversy stopage.
but Amir Sadollah was almost knock out, he fall like 3 times, i dont think that Amir was going to be able to recover.
(Sakuraba and Nogeira has getting beat up even harder and they recover but hey lets face it Amir Sadollah is not Sakuraba or Nogeira)
Maybe he wasn't knocked-the-F***-out, but that wasn't horrible stoppage like all these lunatics are raving. He got rocked hard by the uppercuts from the clinch and took some very nasty haymakers to the side and even the back of the head it looks like. Would you honestly have rather seen him take another 10 of those for no reason? He wasn't coming back after that, he was rocked and Hendricks was on him like stink on s***.
Smiley your right I don't know anything about losing fights which you clearly seem to be an expert on. I only know everyone came running to another Ultimate Fighter alums defense who got smashed, Josh Koscheck. You really shouldn't invest so much emotion into guys who fight on reality tv shows. Did you cry when Rashad and Forrest got knocked out? Did you cry foul? Did you suspect Machida of juicing or using plaster of paris? Lighten up. Amir lost. Unnecessary punishment is going to get someone killed. You probably watch Nascar for the crashes too….
Does everyone think this was early because you think so or because Joe Rogan thinks so?
Smiley let me help you out.
Wow to the guy that posted that the ref was right and he had a better angle than us, you are a f****** goof! Clearly you don't know s*** about mma or fighting in general. That was a horrible stoppage. Not only was Amir getting back to his feet before the ref stepped in, he was also getting punched in the back of the head. If the fight was being stopped it should have been for a point taken away from Hendricks for Illegal blows to the back of the head, not because Amir wasn't defending himself . So no, only is Miragliotta a f****** dumbass,(I have no idea how to fix this nonsense)douche bag; you are more of a waste of air than he is… Dumbass-douchebag-goof.
rogan is starting to become as biased as frank mir. Just beacuse hes a friend of amir's and wanted him to win, it was premature. Goldberg Disagreed but he always submits to rogans opinions. Sadollah was out he hit the floor and kept getting hit without pulling guard, or blocking. Fights over. I knew Johhny hendricks would win anyways if you hadnt seen him fight before google his previous fights. Hes bad ass.
bullshit!! dan is a f****** piece of s*** ref!! i rather watch steve mazagatti's mustache ref, then this asshole!!!
So annoying with that early stopping! Amir is so much better figther than Hendricks! Hopefully Amir will learn by his misstake – if you set out to do one thing (like amir was here – trying to get the clinch) and get hit – stop trying and get out of there! I´we seen it many times in mma. Not that easy when youre in a fight thou….
Amir will be back, he´s one of the best 170p-fighters, but still have much to learn.
again with the stupid Miragliotta!
Amir got hit with some huge upercuts… he was hurt no doubt…. from our angle the REF allowed some major blows to the back of the head. Thats our angle though. REF had a much better look than we did.But if he wasnt hittign to the back of the head, would john have hurt his hand hitting the side of amirs face? prolly not…
jj how is Amir a better fighter than Hendricks. If he was he should have known that step back two was coming. They share the same coaches at xtreme couture. The straight left was the punched stopped him in his tracks that's why he went for the thai plum but was all ready rocked then got hurt by the uppercuts. Early stoppage yes 30 more second would have just meant more punishment
That stoppage was terrible.
if you look at the replay, only one uppercut landed flush, but on top of that, when Hendricks was stiking from the top, all of those shots hit the back of Amir's head, which is beyond illegal.
That should be a No Contest.
Bring back Big John to Ref. atleast he knew how to do it properly
whoever said only one of those uppercuts landed flush needs to get their f****** eyes checked.
let's not mention that the last 3 punches were to the back of the head

The NCAA football national championship will be decided in a much different way beginning in 2014. That much is clear. How it will be decided continues to be a hot topic.
The BCS conferences have met numerous times to try and hammer out a new format for deciding the national champion. A playoff format appears to be the leading candidate.
What size playoff should be used? Should it be four teams, eight teams or more? How are the playoff spots determined?
Those are some of the questions facing these conference commissioners. The Big 12 is holding its regularly scheduled meetings right now in Kansas City, Missouri. That topic was discussed by the league members on Wednesday.
"We're in favor of taking the four highest-ranked teams," Interim Big 12 Commissioner Chuck Neinas told the Associated Press, "We think it should be some type of selection committee operation, and how you rate a conference champion, strength of schedule must be included."
Bob Bowlsby will take over as Big 12 Commissioner on June 15 and likely shares some of the same thoughts on the topic as Neinas.
Strength of schedule has not been factored in throughout the past as its own element. Computer rankings were part of the BCS formula and were supposed to factor in strength of schedule to a degree.
The idea of factoring in a strength of schedule would likely incorporate a formula similar to that of the RPI (Rating Percentage Index) used by the NCAA tournament selection committee's in men's and women's basketball.
The Big 12 would certainly want strength of schedule included when it can say seven of its ten teams were ranked in the top 25 last season. The Big 12 is also home to the only conference that features three conference champions in 2011.
Neinas indicated being in favor of some sort of selection committee. That would keep the human element very much involved. Adding more weight to computer rankings as part of the BCS formula was designed to help make the human element less of a factor.
"There needs to be a human element to kind of handle the unknowns. You can't always say computers get it right or opinion polls will get it perfect," Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione said. "You still need someone with good, rational thinking to deal with unforeseen circumstances that may come up. Who knows what form that takes, but some form of human element that gets college football to the point of determining the best teams."
Aside from figuring out the size of a playoff, the format must also be decided. How are the bowls used in the process, if at all? Are any of the games played at the home stadium of the higher seed? Are conference championship games required in the process prior to the four-team playoff?
There are still many questions that remain unanswered, but the Big 12 clearly wants a playoff. Had one been in place last season, Oklahoma State would have had a spot in the field and an opportunity to make its case to play for a national championship. As it turned out, Oklahoma State's one loss prevented it from playing in the BCS National Championship game. The two spots in that game went to a pair of SEC teams in LSU and Alabama with Alabama winning the coveted crystal trophy.

Pablo Sandoval lost control of his bat during Tuesday night's game against the San Diego Padres (this is a file photo from a previous game).
Three fans have been injured by a flying baseball bat during a game between the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants, including a woman who went to the hospital.
The fans were sitting above the Padres' dugout along the first base line Tuesday night when Giants slugger Pablo Sandoval took a swing and lost control of his bat, sending it sailing into the stands.
The bat bounced off the dugout roof and struck all three. The woman was holding her head with a towel as she was taken out in a wheelchair.
A Giants spokesman says the woman went to the hospital as a precaution. Two other men got treatment at the stadium.

Checking up on the Twins who were not to be
A lot of names were brought up in the offseason to fill the Twins' gaping DH hole. I will periodically check up on these players to see if the Twins made the right decision.
Rondell White Twins 2.5 mil .150 .157 .163 0hr 5rbi
But Souhan says he's a good guy and he has "hit some balls hard" this year
Mike Piazza Padres 1.25 mil .228 .262 .439 3hr 6rbi
There are only two people that thought Piazza could be an everyday catcher...Piazza and Kevin Towers
Frank Thomas A's 500k .194 .266 .431 5hr 11rbi
An injury waiting to happen
Jim Thome White Sox 14 mil .333 .505 .788 9hr 21rbi
Only Sid really thought the Twins could sign him
Jacque Jones Cubs 4 mil .200 .255 .420 3hr 9rbi
Already being booed in Wrigley
Nomar Garciaparra Dodgers 6 mil .188 .278 .438 1hr 4rbi
If you thought the Twins should sign him you have some explaining to do
So the pickings were quite slim, unless I missed someone. I still think Rondell could emerge with the best numbers from this group, if he stays healthy and makes some adjustments.

Nokia Lumia 900 (LTE)
Reviewed by TeamTech (Currently owns)
The Lumia 900 is really a great device. The design is simply the best you can find in a smart phone at the moment and while the display doesn't meet those of higher end droids and iPhones the Clear Black Display is stunning. The Live Tiles float on the surface and the colors pop making the experience a pleasure to look at.
The Windows Phone OS has some shortcomings yet remains ahead of its peers in terms of smoothness, integration with social networking services, microsoft ecosytem (skydrive, office, zune, messenger, etc) and its futuristic typograhic metro user interface. The lack of many major apps may be a draw back for some but it is not a deal breaker for me and I suspect countless others as the windows phone marketplace has over 80, 000 apps.
The camera is where the Lumia 900 falls short for me. I am sad to agree with Josh that I am not terribly impressed with the photos. Either they're too dark, noisy or grainy, You may have to fiddle with the settings to get some acceptable shots.
Overall the Lumia is without a doubt the best Windows Phone in the market today. Sound quality is excellent, the device feels solid and exudes quality. My overall score is 8.0 But I am increasing it to 8,5 on pricing. You just can't beat and LTE smartphone of this caliber for $0 - $100.

If you thought it was unusually hot on Saturday, you would quite right. Saturday officially became the hottest day ever recorded in Atlanta surpassing the 32-year record of 105 just before 4 p.m.The official high for Atlanta on Saturday was 106 degrees. It was a heat felt all around Georgia including Columbus which also broke that area's all-time record.Battling more than the heatFirefighters were taking extra precaution on calls Saturday with the high temperatures. Extra crews were sent to several fires around metro Atlanta. Policies help firefighters rotate out to take breaks for water and remove some of the equipment which retains heat.Captain Eric Eberly with Gwinnett County Fire and Emergency Services tells FOX 5 News that people need to be more aware of the fire danger during this period of heat and dry air. He say using common sense will help them from having to respond to fires in the heat.Seeking reliefSeveral cooling stations were set up around metro Atlanta this weekend to help those who might be with out air condition. In addition, the city of Atlanta opened all their pools to the public for free.Atlanta's twelve pools will be back open again Sunday from noon until 7 p.m. including those seven pools open free to residents.
Getting hard to breatheThe extreme brings another extreme problem in metro Atlanta. Smog! A Code Red Smog Alert has been in place since Friday for an increase in ground-level o-zone. A Code Red Smog Alert means that air quality is unhealthy for all groups.The Clean Air Campaign said that levels Friday were actually in the Code Purple range mean the air quality is very unhealthy. They say this is the worst air quality since 2007.You can learn more about the different smog alerts by going to Georgia Environmental Protection website: epdga.org
For the latest air quality alerts, visit the Clean Air Campaign's air quality forecast page: georgiaair.org/smogforecast"Brave-ing" the heatAt Turner Field, temperatures were records as being 104 as Atlanta Braves pitcher Mike Minor threw out the first pitch against the Washington Nationals.A spokesperson for the Braves reported that there were no major problems at the ballpark for the 26,491 fans in attendance. They had opened eight water stations around Turner Field prior to opening the gates to help keep everyone hydrated.The Braves won 7-5 against the Nationals.Atlanta is not the hottest?Atlanta might have broken their record Saturday, but it wasn't the hottest place in Georgia. Macon hit a sizzling 108 degrees, tying the record set back in 1980.Athens was just slightly cooler at 107 degrees. Friday, the city broke its high record with the thermometer topping 109 degrees.On the coast of Georgia, things were still hot despite that area falling short by 2-degrees of its record of 102 set back in 1998. The bad news for Georgia is that Sunday is supposed to be more of the same.

Toxic Exposure
Environmental pollution has been an epidemic for decades. When you think of environmental pollution, it's often images of oil spills, waste dumped into creeks and rivers, or hazardous waste buried in the ground. But the most serious and dangerous environmental pollutions are those that directly harm a person's well-being. Environmental Litigation Group, P.C. is a fervent advocate nationwide for victims of toxic exposure.
Helping Polluted Communities Fight Back
Many different industries have haphazardly polluted the soil, water, and air in the environment around them. This avoidable, but often willful contamination has caused untold damage to children, adults, property, and communities in literally hundreds of sites throughout our country. The most severe polluters are often found in the poorest neighborhoods, where members of the community may not have the resources to stand up for themselves.
Various kinds of industrial pollution have been linked to many types of cancer, leukemia, brain damage, birth defects, blood disorders, respiratory problems, and more. The list of diseases caused, or linked to, industrial exposure is exceedingly long.
Governmental and state regulatory agencies exist whose job it is to monitor industrial pollution. However, these agencies are often understaffed and underfunded. It is virtually impossible for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to consistently monitor pollution on a large scale.
Because large industrial companies know that certain emissions and wastes can be hard to curb, or costly to properly dispose of, they hire lobbyists to work on their behalf, often pressuring the EPA and other regulatory agencies into lax standards or little action.
Community Pollution Warning Signs
- Visual signs of pollution—discarded drums or containers, areas that seem dead and have little or no plant/animal life
- A higher incidence of sickness and disease. Are there more sick people in your area than elsewhere?
If you believe your community has been polluted by the nearby plant, factory, paper mill, or other industry, here is what you can do:
- Stand up for your community and organize together. When companies realize they are facing a community that has had enough and will not take any more, it gets their attention.
- Search out and hire an attorney experienced in handling toxic community exposure cases. This is easier said than done, as there are few attorneys who understand the science of toxic exposure cases while being able to integrate that with the legal practice and theory necessary to build a good case.
Compensation for Toxic Exposure
You can and should be compensated for injuries caused by toxic substances. If you have been a victim of toxic exposure, you can file an environmental toxic tort personal injury and property damage lawsuit. If the court finds that your injury is directly linked to exposure to a toxic substance, you could be awarded compensation to cover your medical costs, emotional trauma, expenses, and property damage. Furthermore, chances are you are not the only victim of exposure. It is extremely rare for a toxic material to affect just one person. Often, toxic tort cases are brought as mass tort lawsuits because of the large number of plaintiffs.
ELG is very experienced in handling toxic exposure community cases. We understand the underlying scientific theories behind the creation of pollution and its effects on the human body. Some of the nation's premier medical experts in toxicology choose to work with our firm for just this reason. ELG is unsurpassed at merging the science of a case with legal theory to build the best case possible.

Gulag: Traces and Testimonies 1929–1956
17 May 2013 to 8 December 2013
An exhibition by the "Memorial" Society, Moscow and the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorials Foundation in cooperation with Stiftung Schloss Neuhardenberg, on show in the German Historical Museum. Sponsored by the German Federal Cultural Foundation.
The exhibition presents relics of and testimonies to the Soviet camp system collected by the "Memorial" human rights organization all over the former Soviet Union from the 1980s to the present. The exhibition project seeks answers to the following question: How can the Gulag – a penal camp system already described by its contemporaries as the "quintessence" of Soviet tyranny – be described, how can it be comprehended in all of its dimensions? Voices of people who experienced it first-hand and biographies of former inmates accompany visitors on their exploration of this remote archipelago and create a panorama of the Soviet camp system. Objects from the "Memorial" holdings – for example a makeshift bread pouch, a tattered dress or a metal grave tag – make the everyday lives of the camp inmates tangible.

As all y'all know by now, I'm an experienced caffeine junkie. Currently, I'm trying to forgo it again (this Diet Coke right here is merely an aberration, do not look at the caffeine behind the curtain…). But really, it's everywhere around us. Somehow I don't think it was QUITE so prevalent until the age of Starbucks. but it seems like now you can't go anywhere without running into a coffee shop or three. In some cities there is literally one on every street corner. And with the crazy lives we all appear to be living these days, shouldn't we take whatever legal cognitive enhancement we can get our hands on?
And heck, with a Starbucks on every streetcorner, what's a poor lady who is…*ahem*…increasing (for those not familiar with the Victorian term, it means preggers), to do? Some of us spend our lives pretty well addicted, but when a women in the US finds out she is pregnant, she is immediately to drop to no more than one caffeinated beverage a day. And 70% of expectant mothers apparently don't even do that. So the big question is: is our children caffeinated?

ATLANTA (AP) - Georgia's highest court says the city of College Park can tax businesses operating in areas of Atlanta's airport that fall within College Park's city limits.
In an opinion published Thursday, the Georgia Supreme Court upheld a Georgia Court of Appeals ruling. That court found that College Park should collect the taxes from Atlanta-owned businesses because the businesses, including the main terminal and parts of 2 concourses, are actually within its city limits.
The city of Atlanta had argued that it qualified as a "local authority" and therefore was exempt under state law from having to pay occupation taxes to College Park. The high court opinion says state law doesn't exempt "municipalities" engaged in revenue generating business within the corporate limits of another municipality from paying occupation taxes.

The U.S. Constitution authorizes the federal government to collect various types of taxes from you.
The standard tax deduction is a flat amount that the tax system lets you deduct, no questions asked.
Common lifestyle changes, like getting a job or getting married, can change your tax liability. To avoid being caught off guard by an unexpected tax bill or huge tax refund, you'll need to adjust your withholdings on your paycheck.
Not everyone is required to file an income tax return each year. Generally, if your total income for the year doesn't exceed the standard deduction plus one exemption and you aren't a dependent to another taxpayer, then you don't need to file a federal tax return. The amount of income that you can earn before you are required to file a tax return also depends on the type of income, your age and your filing status.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) permits you to write off either your state and local income tax or sales taxes when itemizing your deductions. People who live in a state that does not impose income taxes often benefit most from this deduction. However, you might also be better off deducting sales taxes instead of income taxes if you make large purchases during the year and your total sales tax payments exceed those for state income tax. You can use either the actual sales taxes you paid or the IRS optional sales tax tables.

Here's a quick look at your Top 3 on 3 stories you'll need to know before heading out this morning.
The first step toward authorizing military force on Syria comes today, as the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is set to hold a hearing on Capitol Hill. Secretary of State, John Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel are among administration officials scheduled to testify before the committee. You'll remember, President Obama has been seeking congressional support for a resolution authorizing a possible air strike against Syria in the wake of a suspected chemical weapons attack. The administration has been making its case for a strike by meeting with lawmakers at the White House.
Also, a decision could be made as early as today, concerning more than $700 million of new construction at Plant Vogtle in Waynesboro, Georgia. The Georgia Public Service Commission is expected to vote this morning on a deal between agency regulators and Georgia Power. Under the plan, Georgia Power would withdraw a request to increase its budget by $737 million for two new nuclear reactors. However, that debate could be delayed until the first reactor is up and running which at the earliest, is in January 2018.
Plus, close to two years after a Savannah woman is said to have thrown her newborn baby away, she is set to face a jury of her peers. The trial of Anitra Hicks is scheduled to begin this morning in Chatham County. Police say in December 2011, Hicks, then 18, admitted to throwing her baby away after a curbie sanitation worker found the infant in the trash. Records show the infant drowned. Hicks faces two counts of felony murder.

funniest shit...i happened to be watching with some friends...and one made a comment: "u know...i wouldn't mind seeing mayorga fight canelo." i thought...this dude is so far removed from reality. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) had no idea u predicted that...i remember his name being mentioned. i hope and pray it doesn't happen.
Ha! Mayorga is always game, for any and everybody...but I'm tired of Canelo fighting over the hill guys, or blown up welterweights.
hahaha he was calling Canelo a girl and all this oter stuff, saying Chavez jr is a man and Canelo wears panties and screaming for a fight to be made with him.
I think these promoters and boxers are reading our comments, we need some of that PPV revenue hahhaha
Gotta love Mayorga's trash talk! If he got a rise out of Oscar's sissy ass, then he can get anybody out of their element. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) You're right, we DO need get compensated for this shit. Hell, half of the time, I'm at work when I post her...sure my supervisors wouldn't like somebody making money off of the person on their clock. LOL
i'll take a lamborghini instead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Sounds about right. I'll probably just sell it for parts though...just to stretch my money out.

Small Changes in My Life
The Alexander Method uses a set of simple phrases, something like a mantra, to help remind students of what they are trying to achieve (everyone studying the AM is called a "student" – even if they've been teaching it for years).
- Let your neck be free
- Let your head move forward and up
- Let your back lengthen and widen
One might be tempted to shorten it to "free your neck; move your head forward and up; stretch your back" but that would be missing the most crucial, and hardest, part of AM – the part that says "Let your…". This is because you really don't do anything in AM, you undo it – let your body return to its natural state: long, expansive and open. This sort of change is like not thinking about kangaroos – once you get the idea in your head, its really hard to not do it. So it is with your body – once you get in the habit of moving in certain ways, and of holding tension in particular places – it is very hard to change.
The Alexander teacher assists the process in two ways: first some movement therapy for about half an hour and then some massage-type therapy on a massage table. The movement therapy consists of mostly just talking the student through a series of simple movements – with a few hands-on reminders of where the student is holding tension or habitually using their body in a less-than-optimal way. The simple movements tend to be the ones we do every day: standing up, sitting down, squatting and walking – but with more conscious intention and external feedback than we usually bring to our movements. All this mental work to rethink the core of our own movement takes its toll – it is hard work! But worth it.
I have a lesson scheduled today with my AM teacher, Amira, and expect it to be quietly intense. – like a hard workout that you don't realize is hard until you feel it in your muscles the next day. I'm looking forward to it – no one ever said change would be easy…

Providers Awaken to Day One of Sequestration
The deadline has passed and the doomsday scenario of federal budget cuts that were designed to be too painful to contemplate are about to kick in.
The across-the-board cleaver cuts will lop $1.2 trillion off the federal budget over the next nine years, averaging more than $109 billion each year. This includes $11 billion in Medicare funding in 2013 in the form of 2% reimbursement cuts.
Reaction in the healthcare sector has been largely a resigned shrug. After witnessing gridlock and brinksmanship in Washington over the last several years, healthcare executives who spoke with HealthLeaders Media this week expressed concern about the long-term effect of the cuts, but also said they were preparing for some scenario that involved doing more with less money.
Chris Van Gorder, president/CEO of Scripps Health in San Diego, says sequestration cuts are just the latest in a series of budget challenges that healthcare executives have had to face from all levels of government.
"The federal government and federal legislators only look at [Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services] cuts. The states only look at Medicaid cuts. The counties only look at their responsibility. Sometimes it appears to providers as if all of these agencies don't look at the combined impact of their decisions," Van Gorder said in an email exchange.
"For example, we are preparing for Medicare reimbursement and (Disproportionate Share) reductions called for in the (Affordable Care Act). In California, the governor is reducing Medi-Cal reimbursement and we know that due to trickle down impact, the county will end up looking at County Medical Services reimbursement. This is all on top of reductions we are anticipating in commercial reimbursement starting in 2014 with the insurance exchanges."

By the time of the next Tokyo Motor Show in 2015, a very different kind of Honda will have emerged, says President and Chief Executive, Takanobu Ito.
The company is currently on a trajectory which aims to increase annual sales from a little over four million to six million in the coming years. While many of these will come from growth in new markets like China and India, there will also be an increasing emphasis on sports cars and sports derivatives of mainstream models to feed demand in Europe and the US….

Month old police puppies developing quickly
West Midlands Police have said its nine Springer spaniel puppies, who were born last month, are already demonstrating the inquisitive nature that'll help keep the region's streets safer.
By the time the puppies - three boys and six girls - reach their second birthday they'll be transformed into search specialists.
The puppies are called Odem, Orville, Osca, Oreo, Olivia, Olympia, Oriel, Oasis and Oxo.
Terry Arnett, Breed Scheme Manager, said: "It's incredible how quickly they develop: for the first 10 days they can't see and are totally dependent on their mum. But just a couple of weeks later they've pretty much trebled in size and are developing their own little personalities."

Splits among loyalist paramilitary groups are of major concern for police, Northern Ireland's most senior officer has claimed.
Matt Baggott said fragmentation of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and Ulster Defence Association (UDA) had created competing agendas, and connected gun attacks in east Belfast, Coleraine and Portrush to individual units seeking to exert their power.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland Chief Constable said: "At present we are concerned about developments within loyalist paramilitary groups.
"Our assessment is that they are fragmenting and we are seeing a number of competing agendas and increased lack of cohesion which is of a concern."
In September the UVF was blamed for the attempted murder of a 24-year-old care worker in east Belfast. Jemma McGrath was hit multiple times in the stomach and legs as she sat in a car outside her home in the Lord Street Mews area of east Belfast.
Mr Baggott told members of the Policing Board that intelligence had confirmed the shooting was not sanctioned by the leadership of the UVF but was carried out by individuals connected to a breakaway unit.
"There are no indications that this was sanctioned by the overall UVF leadership. We believe it to be carried out by individuals linked to a single UVF unit acting on its own accord," he said.
Punishment-style attacks including the shooting of a 15-year-old schoolboy in Coleraine, Co Londonderry last month were also attributed to a single unit of the UDA.
Mr Baggott added: "Again there is no reporting to indicate that those attacks were sanctioned by the overall UDA leadership. It is again believed those attacks were carried out by individual members of the UDA in the north Antrim area."
The chief constable rejected claims that police were "going soft" on loyalist paramilitaries whom he described as parasites.
"We will continue to relentlessly pursue people who break the law and bring crime to our streets," said Mr Baggott.
"There is absolutely no way we are going soft on these groups. There is no standing over these groups and our view is that those who bring crime to the streets are parasites and they will be pursued and will be brought before the courts."
Meanwhile, Assistant Chief Constable Drew Harris said a major operation against the UVF in east Belfast was ongoing, targeting a wide range of crimes including intimidation, extortion, blackmail and historic murder cases.
Weapons, drugs, cash and tobacco have all been seized as a result of the operation, it was revealed.
"We are tackling the full gambit of criminality that they have been involved in," said Mr Harris.
Sinn Fein MLA Pat Sheehan raised questions over the length of time taken to attribute the attack on Jemma McGrath to the UVF.
He claimed the UVF had orchestrated attacks on the nationalist Short Strand enclave in east Belfast, violent flag protests, drug dealing and shootings.
Mr Sheehan added: "Are all these incidents without sanction?
"This is not members acting in an individual capacity yet we have had very few arrests for those involved in the activities of the UVF."

Police are using bloodhounds after a city watch alert was issued for 93-year-old L. P. Baker, Sr., of Memphis, who was last seen Nov. 8.
His fiance told police she and Baker got into a fight Thursday night and he took off on foot.
"I'm hoping he'll walk back up," said Patricia Cox, fiance. "He just disappeared. Just like that, and when he walks he just shuffles so he couldn't have gotten anywhere far away fast, you know, somebody had to pick him up and take him somewhere."
The victim was sighted in the Leroy and Wells Station area on Friday, Nov. 9 between 1:30-2 p.m., police said.
Search crews with two bloodhounds are focusing on the 1600 block of Helsley Road in North Memphis. Crews are anxious to find Baker, especially considering the chilly Mid-South weather.
Missing persons investigators and volunteers from Search Dogs South were out in the neighborhood looking for Baker. One of the bloodhounds had Baker's scent, but it led the team in a circle.
He was spotted in the neighborhood on Friday but searchers came up empty here. They say he may have gotten into a car.
"It's not a good situation for him to be in especially with the way the forecast is going to hit freezing (Monday night)," said Bob Weible of Search Dogs South. "So we had hoped that we might come up with something that would help lead to where he is or maybe somebody would find him and kind of capture him and hold him until the police pick him up to take him home."
In the meantime, Cox is waiting at home for her fiance. Even at 93 she says Baker is still active, cooking her breakfast in the mornings.
"It hurts, it hurts when you lose someone you love, real bad," she said. "I know that this is out of the norm because this is not L. P. and something ain't right. Something's just not right."
Baker was last seen wearing a tan leather and suede jacket, blue button down shirt, black jeans, and tan shoes. If you have seen Baker or someone matching his description, you are encouraged to call Missing Persons at 901-636-4479.

Just had this at The Gate in Brooklyn. Aged for a year, I can only assume that the overwhelming garlic-agression I'd been informed of mellows out over time. On first sip, this DIPA tastealike says "hops" loud and clear, but a surprising sweetness and a peppery burn on the finish bring to mind a certain vampire-repelling food-stuff that turns out to be the main hop replacement. A touch of rosemary shows up toward the end as well to send home the autumny seasonal appeal. I'm told this has horehound in it as well, which sounds apropos for Halloween though I have no clue what it tastes like. I would guess its the missing bittering agent I'm unable to place.
Due to the sticky sweetness imparted by the garlic, this is perhaps not the most immentently drinkable thing on tap, but still mighty tasty and a good challenge for discerning taste buds. This wins massive points to creativity and is a nice sub-in when the pumpkin-brew overdose sets in.

Presentation: 1pint 6oz clear bottle, with sticker label. No freshness date. Hand bottled. The belly of my cap says "Don't Despoil the Soil."
Appearance: Slightly hazy copper/amber in colour with an off-white patchy, creamy lace head.
Smell: GARLIC!!! Nothing but pure, pungent, eye watering, raw garlic. There's also some distinct rosemary herb notes right behind the garlic. If this was food in the oven, my mouth would be watering. But, it's not. It's beer, and I am frightened.
Taste: All I can really taste is garlic, and a very strong herbal/rosemary character. Body is light. There's some malt character, some sweetness. There's also a strange, earthy, raw bitterness, but it's not a hop-like flavour, more grassy. Some more herbal notes too, ones I have yet to taste (maybe a result of the odd combination of ingredients?). Beer goes a bit dry ... The garlic & rosemary overpowers instantly. I'm really having a lot of trouble building the courage to go on with this review. My gag reflexes are kicking in strong. This beer leaves a massive garlic aftertaste in your mouth that will not go away.
Notes: Why beer god?! Why?!
Stacey @ Magic Hat warned me about this brew. "Seasoned with garlic to ward off unwanted spirits. Try it if you dare!" reads the flyer. She suggested that I imagine baking bread, fondue or enjoying it with pizza. I can't imagine drinking this without food, especially after trying.
Originally they had put extra garlic straight in the bottle, but found that it foamed too much. Made with 80% Domestic pale malt, 15% Carared malt, 5% Melanoidin malt, organic horehound, raw garlic and organic rosemary. This beer contains no hops.
Perhaps one of the most unique beers that I have ever tasted. Kudos to MH for doing something this extreme, this freagin' insane!
The morning after update: Well my cold is gone and I woke up with the nastiest garlic mouth ever -- even after drinking a Don de Dieu, a 2001 Big Foot and brushing my teeth.

Innisfree Village, a voluntary community for adults with intellectual disabilities, is getting ready for an open house on Saturday.
The people who live and work in Innisfree Village are very excited to show it off to visitors. They'll be selling tote bags and scarves they make in the weavery, as well as spoons and cutting boards they make in the woodshop.
"I feel like that spirit of working together, living together, everybody pitching in according to their level of ability is something that the world can use more of," said Rhonda Miska, office manager and community coordinator at Innisfree.
Members of the Innisfree community say that even though they are tucked away in the mountains in Crozet, they still want to be a part of the greater Charlottesville and Albemarle community.
The open house will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday. They will have tours of the village running every hour, activities for children, and crafts at the weavery, woodshop, pottery, bakery and gardens.

Quote from: RJG on February 08, 2007, 05:41:35 PMThey have Brandon Jacobs....They need another stud running back to carry the load along with Brandon Jacobs.
Brandon Jacobs wont hold up a whole season. He is too tall at 6'4 I believe. Thats to tall and he will take too many hits in the legs. He needs a buddy system to stay healthy, IMO. So they do need another runner, but probably not round 1 talent. Maybe Thomas Jones would be a good fit there.
there is not a legitimate 1st round pick RB

This wood is from a friend that had a large White Oak tree that came down on their property. It is a large bowl measuring 12 1/2" x 7 1/2" and is the largest bowl I have turned. While turning this piece there was a very large piece of bark right in the center of it and I was able to barely clean it up before breaking through. I gave this project to the couple that gave me the wood. My thought is that they may be able to use it for a fruit bowl or dust collector which ever…. I finished it with a couple coats of tung oil and 4 coats of Polyurethane.
All comments are welcomed…...... Have a Blessed Day!

Auburn bats go quiet in regular-season finale
Sunday, May 4, 2014 9:40 PM EDT
Sunday, May 4, 2014 9:42 PM EDT
From the Auburn University Athletics Department:
The No. 20/20 Auburn Tiger softball team could never find the big hit it needed Sunday afternoon as it was defeated by South Carolina, 4-2, to drop the series and regular-season finale at Beckham Field.
The loss drops Auburn's overall record to 38-16-1 overall and 11-13 in conference play, giving it the nine-seed in the Southeastern Conference tournament, which starts Wednesday. The Tigers and Gamecocks will face each other again in the eight-nine seed matchup on Wednesday at Beckham Field with first pitch at 5:30 CST.
"We just have to play better on Wednesday," Auburn head coach Clint Myers said. "The bottom line is you have to go out there and take the opportunities that are given you. Games are mostly lost, not won. In the past, we've been getting those people up to hit groundballs and put it into play. For us to continue to play, we have to score those people when we have opportunities."
The Tigers either had the lead or tied it twice in the game, but each time allowed the Gamecocks back into the game as the opposition scored one run in the second and third innings, followed by a two-spot in the fifth inning.
Auburn wasn't able to capitalize on three Gamecock errors in the game, scoring only once in the second and fifth innings.
Auburn notched six hits in the loss, two coming off the bat of junior Morgan Estell. She scored one of the Tigers' two runs to finish up her tenth multi-hit game of the year.
Lexi Davis got the call for the Tigers in the circle on Sunday, giving up six hits, as well, with four runs coming across, but only two earned. Both Carolina runs in the fifth ended up unearned as a costly throwing error by Davis after a groundball that should've been the second out, kept things alive for the Gamecocks.
Auburn got the first run of the game for the third time this series, scoring one in the second without recording a hit. A Gamecock error along with a couple of timely sacrifices which included a sacrifice fly by Tiffany Howard gave the Tigers the early 1-0 lead.
However, South Carolina answered back in the next half inning with an RBI single by Codee Yeske to tie the game at one after two innings of play and then took the lead in the third on a solo home run by Ashlyn Masters. The long ball was Davis' second given up in the series.
Auburn tried to re-take the lead multiple times in the third and fourth innings, but left the bases loaded both times to come away empty. It finally broke through in the fifth after USC's third error of the game allowed Morgan Estell to score all the way from second to tie it at 2-2.
The game resembled a see-saw as with every Auburn run, South Carolina responded with runs of their own scoring twice in the bottom of the fifth to make it 4-2, re-taking the lead for the second time in the game.
Auburn and South Carolina will rejoin at Beckham Field for the fourth time in a week when the two teams face off on the conference tournament's first day at 5:30 p.m. CST. The winner will face top-seeded Alabama on Thursday. All games will be televised on ESPNU, with the championship being carried by ESPN2.
