Pope Benedict XVI: The Eclipse of God Leads to a Loss of the Sense of Sin
By • Catholic Online • 3/15/2011
In substance it is a matter of following Jesus who turns decisively toward the cross, the culmination of this mission of salvation. If we ask: Why Lent? Why the cross?

Fasting & Abstinence

Abstinence. The law of abstinence requires a Catholic 14 years of age until death to abstain from eating meat on Fridays in honor of the Passion of Jesus on Good Friday. Salt and freshwater species of fish, amphibians, reptiles and shellfish are permitted.
Fasting. The law of fasting requires a Catholic from the 18th Birthday (Canon 97) to the 59th Birthday (i.e. the beginning of the 60th year, a year which will be completed on the 60th birthday) to reduce the amount of food eaten from normal. The Church defines this as one meal a day, and two smaller meals which if added together would not exceed the main meal.

Red Bull are not only challenging a ruling, they're challenging the FIA, the way it governs the sport and the way the technical regulations are written.

Euro chaos: Britain prepares for worst
UK looks to IMF while Greece drops referendum proposal.
Friday 04 November 2011
Britain is drawing up plans to deal with the consequences of a possible collapse of the eurozone – including a fresh banking crisis – in the wake of the chaos in Greece. The opening of the G20 summit of the world's most powerful economies in Cannes was overshadowed by the turmoil in Athens last night, as the Greek Prime Minister dramatically abandoned plans for a referendum on the European bailout deal in the face of furious opposition at home and abroad.
But, amid growing fears that a Greek economic meltdown could spread through the rest of Europe, there are still concerns that the European plan brokered last week is not enough.
G20 leaders, including David Cameron, are contemplating a huge expansion of the International Monetary Fund to cope with the consequences if Greece were to leave the eurozone.
The Treasury is considering a series of scenarios, concentrating on how Britain can best guard itself from the knock-on effects.
The Chancellor, George Osborne, is understood to be examining how the British banking system can insulate itself from any financial contagion spreading across the European Union and continue lending to businesses.
Ministers are also considering the potential impact of a crisis in the eurozone – Britain's biggest export market – on this country's stuttering recovery.
Greece's financial future remains entirely uncertain, after an extraordinary day of rumours and reversals in which the Prime Minister George Papandreou finally gave up on his plan for a referendum and appealed for national unity. That plea prompted a walkout by the opposition during a parliamentary debate on the confidence motion that will decide the government's future. And there is still no certainty that the country's rival political factions will be able to agree on a way forwards that avoids the country going bankrupt.
In London, Mark Hoban, the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, referred to the single currency "breaking up" – and told MPs that the Government had contingency plans in place to deal with the potential collapse of the euro.
He said: "This Government is well prepared for any eventuality."
Britain still hopes that the package of measures agreed by EU leaders last week, including a further €130bn bail-out of the Greek economy, will be enough to lift the immediate threat to the eurozone. But a senior Downing Street source confirmed that far gloomier outcomes were being examined by Treasury ministers and officials.
He told The Independent: "We are looking at contingency plans. If we said there wasn't one, people would be alarmed." He added: "There is no blueprint in a drawer that can be pulled out. Such a document would soon be out of date. It is an organic process, involving constant monitoring of risks."
Howard Archer, the chief economist at IHS Global Insight, said: "The Treasury would be ensuring the banking system would be strong enough to deal with it and could continue to lend to business and customers. If the eurozone went belly-up, it would be like the period after the collapse of Lehman Brothers – only even worse."
Britain and France were pushing hard at the G20 summit in Cannes last night for the resources of the International Monetary Fund to be expanded in order to cope with the consequences of a potential economic meltdown that could be triggered by Greece crashing out of the eurozone.
"When the world is in crisis it is right to consider boosting the IMF," said David Cameron at the summit yesterday. The existence of a grand plan to bolster the international lender was confirmed by George Osborne who said: "A debate has begun, but not concluded, on increasing the resources of the IMF... We're now getting down to the nitty gritty of numbers."
He added: "I've not heard anyone object to the idea that we should increase the resources of the IMF."
Any suggestion of a British contribution to the eurozone bailout – even indirectly through the IMF – will cause domestic political problems for Mr Cameron, sparking uproar on the Tory back benches.
Mr Osborne said last night that to reveal a target number for IMF resources would be "premature".
But leaders will want to increase the lending power of the IMF considerably beyond its existing $950bn (£600bn) in resources. That sum would not be enough to rescue a nation the size of Italy, which has a sovereign debt pile of €1.9trn (£1.6trn).
Britain and France argue that the IMF's resources need to be increased considerably in order to send a clear message to financial markets that large nations, like Italy, will have a credible contingency fund if they run into trouble financing their debts.
UK government sources said yesterday that the French President, Nicolas Sarkozy, has accepted that the package agreed in Brussels last week to increase the firepower of the eurozone bailout fund, known as the European Financial Stability Facility, will not be sufficient to reassure investors in Italian and Spanish debt.
At the London G20 summit in 2009, Gordon Brown succeeded in persuading world leaders to triple the resources available to the IMF to $750bn, which helped to calm investors in the wake of the 2008 credit meltdown. British ministers are now arguing that similar measures are needed again in the face of a new emergency.
That argument was supported yesterday by the economist and expert on the Great Depression, Barry Eichengreen, who said: "IMF intervention is now the only alternative left for solving the crisis. Only the G20 can put the Fund in the driver's seat and give it the resources it needs to complete the task."
Until recently, the United States was resisting an extension of the IMF's resources. At the meeting of G20 finance ministers in Paris last month the US Treasury Secretary, Tim Geithner, rejected a proposal to boost the IMF's lending power, arguing that the Fund has "very substantial resources that are uncommitted".
One option would be to increase the general IMF contributions from every member. Another would be for willing countries to make bilateral loans to the IMF. According to G20 sources, China is much more interested in assisting the eurozone by lending to the IMF, rather than investing in the European bailout fund.
Bill Gates tells G20: The world needs a Tobin Tax
The Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, urged G20 leaders yesterday to support a financial transaction tax. The French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who supports the levy, alongside other countries, such as Brazil and Argentina, said such a tax "was possible". The UK and US are opposed. But some are concerned Mr Sarkozy is not pushing hard enough. "They're using Anglo-Saxon objections as an excuse," said a source close to Bill Gates.

Indian Thought: A Miscellany by R.K. Narayan The short story of a literary journal... During the tumultuous days of the Second World War the literary magazine, Indian Thought, quietly made its appearance, marking the highlight of R.K. Narayans short stint in journalism. As it happened, Indian Thought enjoyed an even shorter life: the War, shortage of paper, and problems with a recalcitrant printing press-all made it impossible for the journals fourth issue to see the light of day. And this despite the journals success. R.K. Narayan had envisioned a quarterly that would reflect the best in the new literature of the day-an ambition brilliantly realized-given that, during its fleeting appearance on the literary scene, its contributors included such greats as C. Rajagopalachari, M.N. Srinivas, the visionary Paul Brunton and, of course, the editor himself. In this book, freelance editor and writer S. Krishnan has ensured, through judicious rearrangement and excision, that the early writing of some of India's finest writers remains as fresh and compelling as when it first appeared in R.K. Narayan's little journal. A Season of Ghosts by Ruskin Bond Collection of Bond short stories on the mysterious in Indian culture, social relations, and Himalayas.

Super League: Warrington Wolves too strong for Hull FC
Teenage winger Callum Lancaster scored a hat-trick of tries on his home debut in a losing cause as in-form Warrington beat Hull 24-18 at the KC Stadium.
The 17-year-old scored all of his side's tries to take his tally to eight in just four appearances as Hull appeared in front of their own fans for the first time in two months.
However, the KC Stadium is a happy hunting ground for the Wolves, who have not lost there since 2007, and they ground out an eighth successive win to maintain their surge up the table.
Hull lost scrum-half Richard Horne with concussion after only five minutes but Aaron Heremaia proved a useful replacement and they opened the scoring with a penalty from teenage stand-off Jordan Abdull.
The visitors struggled most with the wet ball and Hull punished a fumble by hooker Micky Higham on 17 minutes, with Abdull kicking the loose ball on for Lancaster to open his account.
Centre Joel Monaghan collected Gareth O'Brien's high kick on the last tackle but was prevented from grounding the ball and Hull full-back Jamie Shaul was forced to scramble to deny stand-off Chris Bridge after he had charged down Abdull's attempted clearance kick.
The Wolves' first try eventually fell to loose forward Stefan Ratchford but the architect was full-back Matty Russell with a determined 60-metre run in which he fended off a host of would-be tacklers to create the position for Monaghan to supply the final pass.
Bridge's conversion tied the scores but Joe Westerman edged Hull back in front with a penalty before Warrington struck again in the final minute of the first half.
Grubber kick
O'Brien came up with a perfectly-weighted grubber kick that bounced kindly for centre Ryan Atkins to touch down, with Bridge adding the goal to make it 12-8 at the break.
Bridge extended the lead with a penalty early in the second half, clearly sensing that points would be hard to come by in the difficult conditions.
Both sides continued to fritter away possession and Hull took full advantage of Wolves winger Gene Ormsby's knock-on from a scrum on his own 20-metre line.
Skipper Gareth Ellis got over the line only to lose his grip on the ball but then sent out a superb pass for Lancaster to finish decisively to claim his second try.
Westerman's missed kick left his side trailing by two points and they fell further behind on the hour when Ben Harrison took O'Brien's pass to charge over for the visitors' third try, to which Bridge added his fourth goal.
And there was no way back for the home side when Monaghan split their defence on 66 minutes for Bridge to get Ormsby over for their fourth try.
Hull made the most of another handling error from the visitors to get Lancaster over for his third try three minutes from the end and Westerman's touchline conversion cut the gap to just six points but it came too late to affect the result.

The Monaco Grand Prix is widely recognized as being the jewel in the Formula 1 crown. Each May, the rich, pretty and famous convene in the principality for a weekend of racing; it is the ultimate place to be seen.
However, even for the drivers, there's a certain sense of excitement surrounding the weekend. It is the ultimate driving challenge, with the unforgiving walls just millimetres away, and to be a great of the sport you need to have won in Monaco.
Ahead of his first Monaco Grand Prix for Red Bull, Daniel Ricciardo has made no secret of his own excitement, saying that he cannot kid himself into treating it like any other race weekend.
"In Monte Carlo it's impossible to do that calm, detached racing driver thing," he explained. "Every year I'm determined I'm going to approach the weekend in a coldly logical way, and every year I end up bouncing up and down and getting excited!
"It's just amazing. The atmosphere in town and down at the harbour, the history of the race, the massive crowd, it's a real buzz. The track is properly old-school.
"Driving an F1 car anywhere is special – the speed, the power and the acceleration just blows you away – but here it's… cool."
Interestingly, Ricciardo has never actually finished the Monaco Grand Prix. In two previous attempts, he has retired from the race, with last year's DNF coming as a result of Romain Grosjean crashing into the back of him.
However, after finally claiming his first podium finish at the Spanish Grand Prix, the Australian will be hoping to greet Prince Albert with that infectious smile on the podium in Monaco and perhaps even pass teammate Sebastian Vettel in the drivers' championship.

Title: Bald cypress with chlorosis in Texas
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
I have a 6' tall Bald Cypress planted 2 years ago which just this year appears to be suffering from chlorosis. The tree was bought from a chain store. It receives some drainage water from my washing machine. Is it worth the effort to try to amend the soil etc. to help the existing Bald Cypress with its chlorosis or is it simply better in the long run to replace it with a more alkaline-tolerant tree? My soil is blackland clay with approx. 7.5 pH.ANSWER:
Bald cypress Taxodium distichum (bald cypress) is a majestic tree with soft, ferny foliage that enhances many landscapes. It prefers acidic soils (pH <6.8 ) and has no tolerance for calcium carbonate. The alkalinity of your soil is affecting the availability of iron to the plant which causes the chlorosis. If you are using chlorine bleach in your washing machine, the the wash water may be raising the pH. I would suggest directing it away from the tree, or stop using it altogether.
There are two approaches to your problem; one is to change the pH of the soil, and the other is to increase the availability of iron for the tree. The websites below explain the methodology and the pros and cons of each method.
Kansas State University Research and Extension
Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service
Should you decide to replace the Bald Cypress, the Texas Red Oak Quercus buckleyi (Buckley oak) is a beautiful tree that can tolerate your alkaline soil.

Law could be worth the risk
Team decision makers often would be heard saying, "We'll see what's available after June 1." But it seems each year brings fewer and fewer options for teams who are still building at this point in the offseason.
When a player is released after June 1, any remaining signing bonus he is due counts on the following year's salary cap. While that frees up cap space in the current year, it takes up space with dead money the next. Teams now seem more willing to release a player early and take the full cap hit in the current year, rather than tie up future cap money and leave themselves with little flexibility.
Three players who in the past might have been June 1 casualties the Ravens' Peter Boulware, the Cardinals' L.J. Shelton and the Seahawks' Anthony Simmons have been released already.
Baltimore and Arizona easily could have waited to release Boulware and Shelton after June 1 to free up cap space for this year. But both teams felt there was no time like the present to be accountable, so why wait if the cap room is already there? Seattle did the same thing when it released Simmons last month. Simmons had been paid an $8 million signing bonus just two years ago and he will count more on the Seahawks' books this year by not being on the roster than he would count if he were still there. Now that's biting the bullet.
There still may be a guy or two who will get released who can make a difference somewhere else. Cornerback R.W. McQuarters, who was released by the Bears, is one. But the list of guys looking for a home won't grow that much. For the most part, the guys who have been making visits for the last few weeks will continue to be the focus.
But there are still some good players on the market right now, and here is a list of my top five (wide receiver Troy Brown would have been on this list for sure had he not turned down a more lucrative offer from the New Orleans Saints over the weekend to stay with the New England Patriots). At some point, the price will be right and these five guys will find the right fit:

Following the release of "Soul of A Woman" last week, BJ The Chicago Kid has returned with a dark and blurry visual for his new remix of Yeezy's "Can't Hold My Liquor".
I'm biased, I'm honest and I'm excited to say this will be one dope A3C showcase. Taking on Atlanta once again, some of Toronto's best are making their way to Atlanta to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the A3C Festival and are hitting the Department Store (467 Edgewood Ave SE) Thursday, October 9th from 10PM-2AM. Hosted by Big Philly, '416 SEASON' highlights Toronto's greatest talents, ultimately showing there's a lot more exploring to do in 'The 6′ than one may think. From Juno-nominated artists to the newcomers that are making noise, there's a little something for everyone at this showcase. It's '416 SEASON' in the A – get your Screwface on and enjoy some of Toronto's coldest!
Man, listen. This was thrown into my inbox for reasons beyond listening to it, but I can't stop spinning Mir. Fontane's 'He So Crazy'. Entirely inspired by the sitcom Martin, the Camden, NJ artist put together 12 solid tracks that reflect the show, but with his own plotline twists. Definitely check out "Pam" below, and then grab the tape after the jump because this may be a career-changing tape for the 21-year old artist.
Game's upcoming album Blood Moon: Year Of The Wolf is dropping October 14th. One of the stand-out tracks is the 'Hit 'Em Hard' joint featuring Bobby Shmurda, Freddie Gibbs, and Skeme. Check it out below.
Teyana Taylor releases a short but quite cultivating visual for her 'Business' record. The visual is pretty much Teyana in a bathroom, in front of a mirror reflecting on a relationship that has gone wrong. Sounds pretty boring right, well strangely enough it isn't. The video blends in well with the record. After reflecting on the past Teyana then sparks up a cigarette and strips down, that for me was the highlight of the visual.
It's been just over a month since Jeezy dropped his Seen It All: The Autobiography project. The latest from Snow is some news that will excite fans as he has announced an American tour to celebrate the album, the tour will kick start in Daytona Beach this Thursday. View all the dates below.
Beatsmith A-Villa is hard at work on his Carry On Tradition project that will be released via Closed Sessions sometime in the near future. The music hasn't been flowing consistently but the latest release to promote the project is something special and something Villa put a lot of work into making happen. Read below what he had to say about the record.
I met K.R.I.T. at a meet & greet before a show he had in Chicago. I introduced myself, told him about my project, and gave him a beat CD. The next day, I got an email with his verse over this particular beat, which I never would've thought K.R.I.T. would pick. But it shows his versatility as an artist and his ability to stand out on any type of record. I then sent it to Termanology, who I'm a fan of and knew he would kill it. But I didn't anticipate him laying down one of my favorite verses on the album. Then with Inspectah Deck, I had sent him a different beat and asked for that "Triumph" & "Above The Clouds" type of feel, which he definitely delivered on and made it easy to tie everything together. However, I had lost the scratches I had previously done before my turntables broke. So at the last minute, I had the homie DJ Scend re-do what I had lost. However, he added his own flavor to it and even improved upon what I had originally intended. Overall, I'm really proud of this song and love everything about it…the concept, the intro, the beat, the beat switch up, the verses, the DJ cuts, and outro. It's just a hard rap record and is the essence of Hip Hop…good beats & rhymes.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Best bargain bottles
Magazine's awards single out great, inexpensive wines
Most of us don't buy wines over $25 on a regular basis. I try and keep most wines I review in this column in the under-$25 range for this reason; also, the majority of wines on shelves in Liquor Marts and private wine stores are in this price range as well.
I'm also fortunate enough to try hundreds of wines in this price point every year as a judge at Wine Access magazine's International Value Wine Awards (IVWAs). Held every summer in Calgary, thousands of reds, whites, bubblies, rosés and dessert wines are scrutinized and discussed by a national panel of judges.
The wines are brought out pre-poured in groups based on the grape(s) from which the wines are made -- beyond that, judges have no idea about country of origin, price (other than they're $25 or less), or producer. The first couple of days of judging separates the average (or worse) from the good/excellent, with the latter moving on to the final couple of days of final-round judging.
A wine that judges score well (87 points or higher out of 100) and that costs $15 or less has a chance of making the Top 25 Killer Values list. These are particularly well-priced wines that deliver great-quality juice. A wine can also earn a Judges' Choice nod, meaning it's one of the best from a particular country or made from a particular grape.
While Wine Access isn't the only magazine that runs this kind of competition, what's useful to readers of this column is that the IVWAs are Canadian. This means most of the wines are available right across the country, including here in Manitoba. It also means Canadian producers are more likely to enter the contest, potentially bringing home the hardware for their great under-$25 wines.
Results from the IVWAs are published every year in the October/November issue of the magazine, which happens to be on shelves now. Wine Access has also been revealing the top wines in each category daily via their website (wineaccess.ca/ivwa) -- check back regularly for detailed results.
Since I came home with a binder full of tasting notes from the 2012 IVWAs, I figured I'd pore through my chicken scratch and pick out a few memorable wines (reds, in this case) that were particularly impressive to me. The scores are my own, and aren't reflective of how the wine fared at the competition.

The nose on this Chilean red blend grabbed my attention -- it's complex, showing anise, blueberry, herbal, chocolate and spice notes. Full-bodied and juicy, there's plenty of raspberry, cassis and chocolate flavours that are rich, while the underlying earthiness provides a food-friendly component as well. Try with stews or roast meats. 87/100
FLAT ROOF MANOR 2010 MERLOT (Stellenbosch, South Africa -- $13.25, Liquor Marts and beyond)
There was a hint of smoke on the nose of this South African Merlot that was the hat-tip to my guessing it as being South African, but it was in balance with caramel, white pepper, plum and blueberry aromas. Those plum and blueberry notes were there in spades on the palate as well, with secondary white pepper, mint and bell pepper flavours adding depth. A great burger wine. 88/100
FARNESE 2011 MONTEPULCIANO D'ABRUZZO (Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Italy -- around $13, La Boutique del Vino)
Graphite, raspberry, cherry and a hint of mint on the nose showed well here. It's a medium-plus-bodied red that offers lots of ripe fruit -- plum, blueberry, raspberry and cherry -- with some light tannin and a splash of acidity. Exclusive to La Boutique del Vino, try this with medium cheeses or marinara pizza. 87/100
DIAMOND ESTATES 2010 HAT TRICK RED (Ontario -- $13.08, Liquor Marts and beyond)
A Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc/Shiraz blend, this was my second-favourite Canadian red blend of the IVWAs. Vanilla, raspberry, cherry and spice notes dominate on the nose; it's chewy, ripe and full-bodied, with cassis, cherry, vanilla, mint, coffee and cola flavours providing surprising complexity. This would do well with spicier Mexican/Latin American fare. 90/100
HEARTLAND 2010 DOLCETTO & LAGREIN (Langhorne Creek, Australia -- $22.49, Liquor Marts and beyond)
Winemaker Ben Glaetzer and his team have taken two uncommon grapes (for Australia, at least) and worked some magic. White pepper, blackcurrant, ash, mint and a hint of shoe polish on the nose certainly grabbed my attention. Great concentration of ripe fruit on the full-bodied palate, accentuated by light acidity and medium tannin, kept it. Red blends did well at the IVWAs, and this Judge's Choice was near the top -- try it with lamb or game. 90/100

CRYBABY WIL WHEATON DOT NET, submitted by for Cutting Him From The New Star Track Movie. Everyone's favorite failed child actor is back again, this time to write an earth-shakingly important diatribe about his recent removal from the latest Star Track movie. It is truly heartbreaking that this overlooked and INTENSELY INTERESTING actor has to suffer so terribly on the pitiless floor of the editing room.
He tells me that they've cut 48 minutes from the movie.I tell him that they've cut an entire episode out. We laugh.
There is another silence. He's waiting for me to respond.
I drive past some kids playing in an inflatable pool in their front yard. On the other side of the street, neighbors talk across a chain link fence. An older man sits on his porch reading a paper.
"Well Rick," I begin, "I completely understand. I've thought about this on and off for months, and I knew that if the movie was long, this scene, and maybe even this entire sequence, would have to go. It's just not germaine [sic] to the spine of the story."
Oh no, not Wil's big and extremely realistic scene with Ashleigh Judd!! How could you? You fucking monsters.
Wil's exciting observations and vital milquetoast insight into the nature of maturing into an adult are groundbreaking and deep. I particularly enjoy the way he inserts the vignette into his boring and sad conversation with someone who actually has a job in the entertainment industry. I think I'm going to try my best to emulate Wil's writing style from now on, since after all I'm a big Star Track fan and he's my hero. Let me try my hand at his technique, as inimitable as it is!
She hands me the receipt for my Fila track suit.I tell her that I will really enjoy my Fila track suit.
I look over and see a child has just dropped his ice cream on the floor of the food court, right next to the T.J. Cinnabuns. An elderly woman is asleep in a chair watching an advertisement for Vanilla Coke.
"Well imaginary friend," I begin, "I completely understand. I've thought about what was needed for the role and a one-dimensional space nerd with a pretentious style and inane social observations just was not right for your picture. It's just not Kosher to the pickle of the story."
To Wil, sincerely, better luck on the next Star Track movie, the one where a wookie probably shoots some sort of blaster at a CGI muppet. Maybe you could do a voice for Jar Jar the Hutt or whatever.
Hows about you, me, and five uncomfortable minutes in my basement apartment next to the dusty Christmas tree that's still up from my last visit with my estranged children.
The Upper Kitchen Cabinet Where Your Roommate Keeps His Food: You'll 'need the footstool' to reach your roommate's 'fine selection' of 'stale cereal,' but he'll never notice if 'only a little is missing from each box.' Feel less guilty by reminding yourself that Jeff 'acts weird around your girlfriend,' and always 'asks about her.' What a 'creep.'

Eastman police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred at Flash Foods convenience store on the Soperton Highway at approximately 2:30 a.m. on Wednesday, August 27.
According to the police report, a black male entered the store and went into the men's rest room.
When he came out, the cashier asked him if he needed anything else. He told her he needed a pack of cigarettes. As the cashier turned to get the cigarettes, the man pulled a knife on her and told her to give him all the money.
He advised her not to touch any buttons. The cashier told him she had to use the keys to open the cash register and get the money.
The cashier proceeded to get the money and hand it to him. He then picked up the cigarettes and fled the store.
If anyone has any knowledge about this robbery, they are asked to call the Eastman Police Department at 478-374-7788.
Lady Indians win three region games, Junior varsity claims two home wins

By Russ Ragan
It was another busy week for the Dodge County High School (DCHS) Lady Indians as they had three more region games. The Lady Indians stepped out of region play for a real pitcher's battle against AAAAA Veterans our of Warner Robins. The non-region battle opened the week for the girls. The game was scoreless until the eighth inning as Veterans would finally push a run across for a one to zero win. Tatnall County came to Eastman for a region match-up on Thursday. Dodge scored six runs in the second to coast to a 12 to one win. Dodge traveled to Savannah on Saturday for a pair of games. Beach was the first game. Dodge scored six in the first and coasted to a 18 to zero win. Dodge beat Jenkins in the second game, seven to zero.
The Dodge-Veterans matchup was a pitcher's battle from the word go. The teams combined for only four hits through the regulation seven innings. Margaret Simmons had a leadoff double to account for Dodge's only hit of the day. Haley Holloway pitched seven shutout innings with no walks. Veterans would score the only run in the eighth as they scored in the intentional tiebreaker. That is when you put a runner at second base with nobody out and start the inning from there. The play at the plate was real close, but Dodge didn't get the call and the final was one to zero.
Thursday Tatnall County came to Eastman to continue region play. The game was scoreless until the Dodge second. A double from Simmons to deep center scored Annie Moore who singled for a one to zero Dodge lead. Kaylee Peterson singled home Simmons for a two to zero Dodge lead. Back to back runs batted in (RBI) doubles from Lizzie Massingill and Holloway gave Dodge a four to zero lead. Nikki Graham drove in the final run in the inning and Dodge grabbed a six to zero lead.
Dodge continued to attack in the third as Allie Varnadoe doubled home Simmons for a seven to zero lead. Massingill singled home Varnadoe for a eight to zero lead after three. Tatnall scored their only run off Holloway in the fourth. Dodge would keep the attack going in the bottom of the inning. Dodge opened the inning with singles from Moore, Simmons and Lila Coleman. Coleman's hit drove in Moore for a nine to one game. Varnadoe hit a "gapper" for an inside the park homer for a 12 to one Dodge lead and that would be the final. Holloway would get the win for Dodge with one walk and seven strikeouts.

Indians win first home game, 34-20

Comment (1)
The Dodge County High School (DCHS) Indians welcomed the Brantley County Herons this past Friday night at Memorial Stadium for the first home game of the season.
The Herons returned the opening kickoff and a completed pass from Anthony Turlington to Mikel Collins lead to a 10-yard touchdown. The point after kick was no good and Brantley County was on the board, six to zero.
The Indians returned the kick off and drove the ball down field. With the first quarter coming to a close, quarterback Landon Martin, with an eight-yard run, scored for the Indians. Dodge County decided to go for the two-point conversion and Kyle Glover ran the ball in. Indians were up eight to six at the end of the quarter.
Brantley County's next possession ended with no score and Dodge County got the ball back and quickly erupted downfield. Mitch Tanner kicked a 37-yard field goal and Indians led 11 to six.
Once again Brantley County could not score and Dodge County would once again get the chance to move down the field. Martin would keep the ball and run in for 15-yards and scored for the Indians. After a defensive personal foul at the zero yard line, the point after kick by Tanner was good and Dodge went into the locker room at the end of the first half leading 18 to six.

Rest in Peace Dan Magill, Mr. Georgia Bulldog (1921-2014) and former Idaho Congressman George Hansen (1930-2014). George Hansen was targeted by vengeful prosecutors on nitpick charges and falsely imprisoned. His conviction was later overturned on appeal. All should read his story. It could happen to anyone. Check out Will Grigg's excellent article about Congressman Hansen on LewRockwell.com.

Michelle Nunn, endorsed by Zig Zag Zell Miller, who called her a "bridge builder," whatever that means, would be a Debbie Wassermann-Schultz, Alan Grayson, Harry Reid style Democrat. She has little chance of getting elected in Georgia (let's hope) and I believe David Perdue would be a good Senator. Writer Bill Crane says Zell "is profoundly stubborn and possesses an unmatched internal weathervane for sensing political winds." I believe Zell's weathervane is defective this year.

I see a lot of posts about MR vs. feminism lately, so here is why I hate feminism and why I don't think we're compatible. (self.MensRights)
submitted 1 year ago by [deleted]
I haven't posted a anti-feminist rant in a while, so here we go:
Surprise, women are willing to exploit men and the government for money, which is why many statistics you see about income and ownership of property are irrelevant. Society is set up to make men work harder and even when they own more property, women can steal their money and property for no good reason. See: Celebrity relationships where the partner contributes nothing then receives mansions and millions. This is what feminism doesn't dare say.. women "oppress" themselves on purpose because, wow, leeching off of others is something PEOPLE LIKE DOING. Since when do people ENJOY hard work?!
Feminism keeps implying women working more = more freedom. I think leeching off of others = more freedom because they have more free time. That's where feminist theory goes to shit. It assumes men oppressed women through history and women had no part in their own "oppression" which is bullshit. Women knew exactly what they were doing and history was just one big manipulation that they took part in. They feigned weakness and we bought it, now they're trying to have their cake and eat it too. There was even a book about this theory written by a woman named after what literally happened. It was called "The Manipulated Man".
So yeah, when feminism tells me women are suffering because my dad has more opportunities to break his body working longer hours at horrible jobs, and they're oppressed because they can relax at home doing whatever they want.. lmao. Fuck that's just so dumb. Oh no, my life is a giant vacation where I just screw around 90% of the time instead of trying to pursue a miserable career! The oppression! I'm sure some females working hard are going to read this, so be honest, wouldn't it have been more convenient(and socially acceptable) for you to just marry a guy and have him work for you instead of going borderline insane and being miserable all the time trying to succeed in your career? I wouldn't mind that luxury, but alas, the patriarchy set up to benefit men looks down on us not oppressing women by avoiding work. I hope someday I can become a master of oppression and freedom by working 8 hours a day in a shitty job I don't want to do while my oppressed slave wife sits at home drinking, watching TV and browsing the internet.
In case this post isn't clear enough, you're a fucking idiot if you think feminism has anything right besides "treat everyone equal if they are equally capable." The mental gymnastics required to come to the conclusion that men have been the ones with the beneficial gender roles throughout history are staggering. Yeah, you were more helpless, but having no responsibility isn't being oppressed, it's being allowed to live like a child your entire life, which is probably the biggest privilege in the world I can think of, so check your privilege or something.

This copy is slightly off, I edited my post because I also posted this on facebook to see some reactions. I had to edit it to fit here and make sense without personal things in it, I pasted too quickly before removing one name and some other language that is better suited in the presence of friends.

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the best, the survey asks guests to rate their overall experience and specifically rate the hotel's cleanliness, staff and location. Priceline.com does not allow site visitors to post unsolicited hotel reviews.Sort by: All Travelers | Business Traveler(1) | Solo Traveler(6) | Traveling as Couple(15) | Family with Young Children(1) | Family with Teens(1) | Group Traveler(1)

very clean-quiet rooms-nice personal touches by the staff such as a note & a cute rubber ducky made it feel less impersonal.

The staff was great and helpful. The room was very clean. And one day when we decided not to leave the room the cleaning lady left us all new towels and toiletries outside our room. The hotel is nicely located with a decent restaurant next door.

Very good breakfast.
Room was small. It was tough to have a portable crib next to the bed and move around. Also the pool water was really cold, my child was not able to swim very long due to this.

Nice rooms/hot tub/pool.
There was an hour-an-a-half delay while checking in - room was not ready. No explaination given. A little noisy in the morning with housekeeping banging doors.
