Rasputin was born in 1872 and died in 1916 and he was to be one of the central figures in Russia's modern history up to the fall of the royal family in 1917. Rasputin achieved huge power in a very short space of time - but that power lead to Rasputin having many enemies within Russia.
Rasputin had a major hold over the royal family of Russia because of his 'power' to heal the young heir to the throne - Alexis. Alexis was a hemophiliac and any cut to his body was a serious risk to his health. On two occasions, Rasputin is said to have saved the young boy and won the confidence of the Tsarina, Alexandra
he lived as a peasant and was uneducated.
in 1901, he left his home in Siberia and wandered. He soon gained a reputation as a man who could heal sick people. He also gained a reputation as a man whose moral behaviour left a lot to be desired. His immoral behaviour shocked people.
In 1905, he met the tsarina of Russia - Alexandra. She was fascinated by this man who saved her son from death and he soon acquired huge influence over the Romanovs. He ensured that his own followers were given powerful positions in the government of Russia despite the fact that they were incompetent at their job.
when World War One broke out, the tsar, Nicholas II, left his family to join his troops at the front. He left his wife in charge, which effectively meant that Rasputin was in power.
his behaviour outraged important noblemen. But his hold over the tsarina was as great as ever. She called him "our friend". His enemies called him the "Mad Monk".
supposedly immune from poison, Rasputin developed a sense of mystery about him. He had "superhuman strength"; he could "drink poison"; he could drink vast quantities of alcohol and never get drunk etc. These may or may not have been true, but none of this was to save him.
In December 1916, he was murdered by those he had angered the most - the nobility. However, the shame he had brought onto the royal family is one of the reasons why they were overthrown in February/March 1917.

It was at the time the world's largest electric powered dragline. You could put 2 school buses in its bucket. It was used for mining coal. In 1979 they dismantled it. The bucket was moved to Cadiz, OH where the museum is for the Big Muskee.

Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX), Chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, commented on today's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) report showing that 288,000 nonfarm payroll jobs and 273,000 private payroll jobs were added in April, while the unemployment rate fell to 6.3%.
"For only the fifth time during this recovery, job gains along Main Street were higher than the average for other recoveries of the past half-century. Finally we have a jobs report that is better than merely middling."
"Regrettably the 0.4 percentage point fall in the unemployment rate was once again largely due to a 806,000 drop in the size of the labor force that helped to push the labor force participation rate down to 62.8%, tying a multi-decade low."
"Four and half years after the recovery began we shouldn't still be holding our breath to see if the monthly jobs report is another setback on the road to economic recovery."

One of the most popular verse of Quran used by anti Islamists to prove
scientific errors in the Quran is the the following.
[27:18] When they approached the valley of the ants, one ant said, "O you ants, go into your homes, lest you get crushed by Solomon and his soldiers, without perceiving."
This is noted as an absurdity in the skeptics annotated bible/quran.
Also Twenty first century atheists at Secular Web (infidels.org) state this 'error' in a 7th century scripture is understandable
"What is even worse is the verses cited have this man hearing the speech of ants! It is a scientific fact that ants have no speech patterns. They communicate through chemical trails, and other forms of odor. In otherwords
they communicate via smell, not sound! This blunder is understandable, as the average desert Arab in the seventh century would not know this. However this lack of knowledge of the animal kingdom proves human origin of the text, and disputes theories of a divine origin."
What's more, Christians didn't fail to miss this too. AnsweringIslam.org has this to say under the title 'A Quran Difficulty: Ants Cannot Talk'
"But then there are these amazing facts about Ants that in contradiction to the Qur'an, ants do communicate using smells, not modulation of sounds. Solomon could not have heard any talk since ants do not produce any."
However, all these losers have only succeeded in make a laughing stock out of themselves as very recent research proves that Ants can and do talk and specifically use complex speech patterns to warn other ants of danger
exactly as Solomans ants did in the Quran.
"Research several decades ago had shown that ants were able to make alarm calls using sounds, but only now has it been shown that their vocabulary may be much bigger and that they can "talk" to each other. "

"Soon will We show them our Signs in the (furthest) regions (of the earth), and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that thy Lord is witness over all things?" 41:53

Why Get Tested?
To detect and diagnose an infection with a hepatitis virus
When to Get Tested?
When you have symptoms of acute hepatitis and a viral infection is suspected to be the cause; when you have been exposed to one or more of the three most common hepatitis viruses: hepatitis A, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Hepatitis is an inflammation and enlargement of the liver. One of the most common causes of acute hepatitis is infection with a hepatitis virus, usually hepatitis A, hepatitis B or hepatitis C. An acute viral hepatitis panel is a group of blood tests often performed together to help diagnose viral hepatitis. Some of the tests detect antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the infection and one detects proteins (antigens) that indicate the presence of the virus.
A hepatitis panel typically includes:
- Hepatitis A antibody, IgM
- Hepatitis B core antibody, IgM
- Hepatitis B surface Ag
- Hepatitis C antibody
If acute symptoms are suspected to be caused by one of the hepatitis viruses or if someone is at an increased risk of being infected or has been exposed, then a hepatitis panel can help determine if the person has been infected and which virus is present.
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is highly contagious and is usually contracted by ingesting food or water contaminated with the virus or by coming in contact with an infected person. While hepatitis A infections are usually mild, the virus can on rare occasions cause a severe, acute disease. Hepatitis A does not cause a chronic infection, as do hepatitis B and C. A vaccine is available to prevent hepatitis A.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the most common cause of acute viral hepatitis. It is spread through contact with blood or other body fluids from an infected person. Exposure can occur, for example, through sharing of needles for intravenous drug use or through unprotected sex. People who live in or travel to areas of the world where hepatitis B is prevalent are at a greater risk. Rarely, mothers can pass the infection to their babies, usually during birth. The virus, however, is not spread through food or water, casual contact such as holding hands, or coughing or sneezing. A vaccine can be given to protect against hepatitis B.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is also spread by exposure to contaminated blood, primarily though the sharing of needles by intravenous drug users, but also by sharing personal items contaminated by blood such as razors, through sex with an infected person, via health care occupational exposure, and from mother to baby during childbirth. Before tests for HCV became available in the 1990s, HCV was often transmitted by blood transfusions. Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent infection with HCV.
Some of the hepatitis panel tests detect IgM antibodies. These are the first antibodies produced during the initial stages of infection. As the disease progresses or resolves, IgM antibody levels decrease. The panel also typically includes a test for hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg). This test detects proteins on the surface of the virus. HBsAg is the earliest indicator of an acute hepatitis B infection and is usually present even before symptoms appear, so this test is useful for screening those who are at high risk of infection or who may have been exposed. The test for hepatitis C antibody cannot distinguish between an active or previous infection and further testing is necessary to determine whether the infection is current.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

A Murder Is Announced: A Miss Marple Mystery
A Murder Is Announced: A Miss Marple Mystery (Paperback)
The villagers of Chipping Cleghorn are agog with curiosity when the Gazette advertises A murder is announced and will take place on Friday, October 29th, at Little Paddocks at 6.30 p.m.
A childish practical joke? Or a spiteful hoax? Unable to resist the mysterious invitation, the locals arrive at Little Paddocks at the appointed time when, without warning, the lights go out and a gun is fired. When they come back on, a gruesome scene is revealed. An impossible crime? Only Miss Marple can unravel it.

And if dying was -1 wouldn't you have to pass through 0 first? Which means you'd have to die before you can start dying.
Come on, lad, use your brain cells. Living and dying are processes, and +1 and -1 are increment and decrement, respectively. If your present state is the zero of not yet having been born, add 1 at birth to come alive, then subtract 1 at death to become dead, which is to say back to zero.
More fancily, follow a trajectory, possibly parabolic, initiated by an upward thrust engendered by the impulsive life force injected by G-d into your fetal cells and then subjected continuously thereafter to a gravitational death force.
AtheEisegete, I'm sure this makes perfect sense to you, but it makes no sense to me. It sounds like just a bunch a fancy words tossed around in an attempt to take something simple and turn it into something complex. I had to laugh when I read this, (and a few of your other posts) I mean who talks like this? Isn't the aim of communication to at least to make an effort to be understood? It's just my observation anyway.
Meloncolin, thanks for your post. I certainly do not trust my own intelligence where math is concerned, but I see I can trust or at least understand yours.

The kids are readying their Halloween costumes and the retailers are setting up Christmas displays. The leaves should be around peak this weekend at higher elevations, gas prices are steady and the World Series is in progress.

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers rocked The Rock for the second night, closing out their two-night run at the Mile One Centre in St. John's, Newfoundland on their way to Europe for the first time in 25 years.
The Blind Boys of Alabama once again opened the show on Sunday, delivering an incredible hour-long set highlighted by their stirring performance of "Amazing Grace" set to the tune of "House of The Rising Sun." Everyone with the Blind Boys of Alabama - from the band to their crew - were incredible to have for these Canadian dates, and the entire Heartbreakers family will miss having them out on the tour.
It was clear from the first notes of "Listen to Her Heart" that the second show in St. John's was going to be special. With two shows on this leg of the tour under their belts, the band was tight, knocking out a raging "I Won't Back Down" that featured some killer guitar work from Mike Campbell. Mike was at it again on "Good Enough," lacing into the slow blues burner off Mojo that was moved up earlier in the setlist for this show from it's customary spot in the latter part of the night. "You Don't Know How It Feels" make it's 2012 Summer Tour debut before giving way to a beautiful "Free Fallin'" that had nearly everyone in attendance singing along with Tom on the chorus. "It's Good To Be King" continues to be a mid-set scorcher, but Sunday's highlight had to be the sublime "Something Good Coming." It's not a big hit or crowd favorite yet, but you can tell how much the band enjoys playing it by the smiles on their faces.

Post subject: X=2, X always equals 2, it's just one of those things.
I've been making comics for a year or so now, and finally feel that my latest attempt to break with my artistically dubious past, entitled X=2 is now ready to be sent out into the big wide world on its own. Currently it has an archive of just over twenty strips, so enough to sink your teeth into comfortably. Any feedback would be useful, but I'm particularly interested in criticism of shading and composition.
Take a gander:

Hi there -- just a first reaction: I think your strips are too wide. I have to scroll horizontally to read your comics, which is kind of annoying. Can you make them smaller, or break them into two rows of cells?

I didn't have a problem with the size of the comics, but then I use a wide format monitor.
I thought the comic was pretty good, actually. I am not a big fan of comics where the characters are aware that they are in a comic and are continuously referencing that fact, but it looks like you are phasing that out in your later strips anyway. The roommate thing is totally overdone in webcomics, but I think this one handles it better than most. It doesn't come across as
cliched anyway.
You are mostly worried about shading and composition, so here are my thoughts. What shading?
A black shirt and toned hair doesn't really count. Not that I mind that there is no shading. In fact, the simple art style works well, for the most part, without shading or color.
As for composition, you change up the angles quite a bit, zoom out and in, which is great and something more comics should do. There are a few imaginative touches, like the reflection of the flame thrower in the girl's face mask, also great. The art is consistant, giving the archive a nice flow. I only have two real complaints with the art. Firstly, it's very boxy. Everything is squared angles, from the couch to the bed and everything in between (except the characters of course). It kind of ruins the overall look of the art. You might try giving a few things some rounded edges to make it look a little more natural.
Secondly, many of the panels are very stark. No pictures or posters on walls, shoes tossed in corners, rugs on floors, etc. Just a few suggested details go a long way for making a comic look natural. Especially since this one pretty much takes place in one apartment, it would benefit you to toss in a few details here and there to make it feel more like these people's home. Other than that, you can fill white space with some shadow effects if you want to get more into shading. But obviously it's a balance betwen detail and output. Still, right now the art has a barren quality, and it's 90% the backgrounds that are the cause.
Anyway, overall a pretty good comic. You'll have a bitch of a time finding an audience, though.

I'm on a smaller monitor (maybe 14 or 15") and it didn't stretch for me either (though if my browser window were any smaller, it would have). Ichikawa, are you on a small monitor or something?
GlenGoldentree, very good review of the comic. I only read the first few, but I thought the jokes were actually pretty good.
As for composition, it was the second comic in the last panel. I thought that was very nice since the other panels and the first strip were all pretty much the same size and angle. Doing things like that will help a particular panel really stand out (which is more difficult when you're confined to one size panel and its a /square/ nonetheless). Keywords: pacing and hierarchy.
Also like what was said, shading might not be necessary, but you may want to try different line weights for emphasis and whatnot. Generally(not necessarily) things like wrinkles, hair, fine details will be in a thinner lineweight.
edit: Also, I just thought of this. Vertically, you may not be able to change the size of the panels, but horizontally you can do whatever you want so I highly suggest utilizing it. Can't fit a joke into 4 panels? Don't force it, try 3. Maybe even 1 or 2. 5 might be possible too.

SPCC Compliance Date Extension for Farms
On October 18, 2011, the U.S. EPA issued both a direct final (76 FR 64245) and a proposed rule (76 FR 64296) to amended the date by which farms must prepare or amend and implement their Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plans, to May 10, 2013. Prior to the close of the public comment period for the concurrent proposed rule, the Agency received written adverse comments concerning the amended compliance dates. This final rule supersedes any and all prior published rules, including the direct final rule, in the extending the compliance date to May 10, 2013, for the owners or operators of farms.
An overwhelming segment of the continental United States was affected by flooding during the spring and summer of 2011. Other areas were impacted by devastating fires. Many counties in many states were declared disaster areas by either the federal or state government or both. As a result, EPA believes that because of their unique nature farms were disproportionately affected and need additional time to prepare and implement a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan.
The amendment does not remove the regulatory requirement for owners or operators of farms in operation before August 16, 2002, to maintain and continue implementing an SPCC Plan in accordance with the SPCC regulations then in effect. Such farms continue to be required to maintain plans during the interim until the applicable compliance date for amending and implementing the amended Plans. Finally, the amendment does not relieve farms from any other applicable environmental regulations or requirements.

Smells amazing
I first bought this scent during a bar soap sale on the website. Later I bought the body wash, the body cream, and more soap. Goldleaf has a lovely, clean, floral scent. It's like nothing else on the market that I've found. Now I'm going to have to purchase the spray fragrance and the home fragrance too.
Was this review helpful?
Yes No
My daughter choose THYMES GOLDLEAF as a gift. I fell in love with the smell. It reminded me of days long ago at my Grandma's home. She had the most amazing bath soap. GOLDLEAF reminds me of that sentimental, comforting fragrance. I am happy. YES!!
Goldleaf body wash
This fragrance just works with me. It makes me smile as long as I can smell it, which is a while
My first purchase from Thymes was aprox. 25 years ago and it was "Filigree and Goldleaf" lotion. I loved the scent and it brought back memories of the fragrance I associated with my best friend's mother.
When I saw that these were available last Fall, I purchased one bath gel of each and mixed them to create my "original" Thymes scent! Makes shower time more enjoyable!
Gold leaf products
The Goldleaf products are my all time favorites. I tell people I must be addicted to them because I feel that I cannot do without them. They are definitely quality products. Yes I have tried similar products but none compare. I did order some of the jasmine products with my recent order and though I have not used them yet, I am sure they are quality products also. I share my gold leaf products with my daughter and my daughter in law and they both love the products and buy them too. And as well I give the products to friends as gifts. Also when I place an order, it is handled efficiently and with care. I am 100 percent satisfied with the THYME company and it's products.

"Essential oils can have a dynamic effect on emotions through their aromas," explains Aromatherapy Associates founder Geraldine Howard. "The sense of smell is the most primitive of our senses, and it's linked to the deepest parts of the brain which govern basis instincts, memories, and emotions. Lavender has been found to calm the mind, so it would really help to reduce stress during the exam period."
If you have a few hours at night to pamper yourself, try a lavender-infused bubble bath followed by luxurious body oil. If you're sprinting from one test to the next with no time to spare, pop a fragrance roller ball into your backpack to apply right before the clock starts. There's even a lavender hand sanitizer that will keep you germ-free! Now, take a deep breath and let the relaxation begin.

Nine steps toward becoming a pull-up champ
"The first time I got a really clean, unassisted pull-up, I jumped down, looked around the gym and said, 'Did anybody see that?' It was amazing," she said.
According to Fonooni, 30, pull-ups are becoming an increasingly common goal among women, even though -- or perhaps because -- they just seem so hard. Hard, but not impossible.
Here are her tips for getting your first pull-up:
1. Do pull-ups. It might sound like stating the obvious, but you won't get better at pull-ups without doing pull-ups. Start with assisted pull-ups using a band.
2. Get help. Fonooni prefers using elastic bands instead of assisted pull-up machines to build up strength; bands force you to engage your core and lower body. To use, loop the band around a pull-up bar and place one foot into the band to help lighten the load. Use a box or bench to reach the band.
3. Understand the movement. Form matters, whether you are doing assisted or unassisted pull-ups. Start with arms fully extended, from a dead hang, and pull yourself up until your chin is over the bar.
4. Start slow. Beginners should start with assisted pull-ups once a week for three to four weeks, aiming for 10 reps to build up muscle endurance and to get used to the movement.
5. Challenge yourself. As you get stronger, decrease the assistance by using a thinner band with less resistance, lower the number of reps and work up to practicing three days a week.
6. Mix it up. Fonooni suggests practicing chin-ups, with palms facing in, and flexed arm hangs, in which you start with your chin over the bar and slowly lower yourself. Chin-ups allow you to engage additional muscles in the forearms and biceps, making it slightly easier than a standard pull-up, which is a lat-heavy exercise. Combining the different exercises will help prevent overuse injuries.
7. Use your whole body. Pull-ups are a full-body workout. Activate your core -- abs, back and glutes -- as well as your arms.
8. Don't lose hope. Progress will be slow, Fonooni says. For many women, it could take weeks, months or more than a year to get that first pull-up.
9. Celebrate. When you finally get over that bar, there's nothing wrong with doing a little happy dance. Then get back up there and go for a second one.

About a year ago, we first wrote about CivicScience, an online polling startup based in Pittsburgh that had just raised $1.2 million in seed funding from research firm The NPD Group, national polling company ALR, and The McClatchy Company director Kevin McClatchy, among others. Since then, the company has been busy expanding the number of publishing partners who use its polling widgets, which in turn has dramatically increased the number of users taking its polls, which makes its data all the more valuable.
Now it has raised an additional $2.86 million from Boston-based New Atlantic Ventures, as well as big media publisher Cox Enterprises. Along with the investment, New Atlantic founder and managing partner Todd Hixon will be joining the startup's board. And Cox has begun deploying CivicScience polls across its digital properties.

Jennifer Aniston: The A-list star of films such as Bruce Almighty, Rock Star and Just Go With It, once admitted, "I enjoy smoking cannabis, and see no harm in it."
Bill Clinton: America's 42nd President Bill Clinton has had his share of the 420 ... kind of. The one-time Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University famously said during his 1992 campaign, "When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a time or two, and I didn't like it. I didn't inhale and never tried it again."
Kirsten Dunst: The fact this glassy-eyed beauty played Mary Jane in the Spiderman series rings ironic, when you consider she's publicly declared: "If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place."
Zach Galifianakis: The Hangover star lit up what appeared to be a marijuana cigarette while appearing on the show of another well-known pot proponent, Bill Maher. While discussing pot laws in California, Galifianakis made his views on the subject crystal clear -- or should we say cloudy and hazy? -- by smoking the cigarette in front of the live studio audience.
Whoopi Goldberg: The outspoken host of The View has never held back when it comes to candor about her personal life. During the Michael Phelps' pot scandal in 2009, Whoopi jumped to the swimmer's defense, saying, "I'm gonna make an admission, I hope you all are sitting down: I have smoked weed."
Melanie Griffith not only smokes marijuana, she's also shared it with her kids! The Bonfire Of The Vanities beauty told More magazine that she partook with her then-teen son Alexander under the rationale, "it would be better for him to do it at home than to go out on the street."
Paris Hilton: We doubt the hotel heiress asks for a non-smoking room when she checks in: The socialite, in the summer of 2010, racked up two arrests when she was caught red-handed with the green stuff (and another on cocaine possession).
Juliette Lewis: The actress, who's been seen in films such as Cape Fear, Natural Born Killers and What's Eating Gilbert Grape, admitted to Shout magazine that she's smoked pot in the past, but has since kicked the habit. "I was a pothead for so many years. I think pot is so insidious, it burns all your creative fire, it makes you paranoid."
Madonna: She made it through the wilderness ... but may not have been sober at the time! The Material Girl has admittedly taken part in a little recreational smoking. How did she bond with her publicist Liz Rosenberg the first night they met? "We smoked a joint together," she said.
George Michael: The pop icon has had his share of legal scrapes stemming from his love of marijuana. "I'm constantly trying to smoke less marijuana," the former Wham! member admitted to the BBC. "I'd like to take less, and to a degree, it's a problem."
Oliver Stone: The Oscar-winning director of Born On The Fourth Of July and Platoon -- who's a veteran of the Vietnam War -- told Konch Magazine, "If it hadn't been for marijuana ... in Vietnam, I don't think I'd be the same person -- I don't think I'd be alive ... Vietnamese grass is one of the most powerful, transforming herbs in the world."
Bruce Willis: The Pulp Fiction star told Playboy in 1988 about a legal scrape he had while attending school at New Jersey's Montclair State College. "I rolled two joints, stuck one behind each ear, had a beer in my hand ... a cop stopped me for having a beer in my hand. He reached up behind my ear and goes, 'What's this?' I said, 'Oops, that's a joint' ... I was put on probation for six months."
Willie Nelson: The On The Road Again singer's a well-known advocate of marijuana, and has been arrested for having the stuff as recently as November 2010, when he was booked into custody in Sierra Blanca, Texas, for allegedly possessing six ounces. "I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug," Nelson once said. "Marijuana is a flower: God put it here."
Seth Rogen: The slimmed-down Green Hornet star, who made his name off pot comedies such as Superbad and Pineapple Express, is unabashed about his love for marijuana. Asked if he would get a medicinal prescription for marijuana (which is available in California), Rogen joked, "What's my illness? I guess I could say I have a terrible case of I-wanna-smoke-weed-all-day!"
Justin Timberlake: The admitted pot-puffer opens up to Playboy Magazine in their July 2011 issue, explaining why he loves his Mary Jane.
Celebs who have admitted at one time or another that they have smoked marijuana.

MISENHEIMER, N.C. - Mount Olive College swept a Conference Carolinas softball doubleheader from host Pfeiffer University on Sunday afternoon by the final scores of 8-0 (5) and 4-3 to wrap up the 2013 regular season at Jack Ingram Field. The Trojans improve to 28-12 overall, 14-6 in league play while the Lady Falcons fall to 20-26, 8-12. Pfeiffer will be the #8 seed in the upcoming weekend's conference tournament.
Mount Olive struck first in the second frame of game one as Tiffany Hawley blasted a laser over the left-center field fence to put the Trojans up 2-0. Mount Olive would add another run in the third taking advantage of back-to-back Lady Falcon errors pushing the lead to three before a RBI single from Erin Brogan made it a 4-0 contest. A bases-loaded walk to Danielle Mitchell would plate the third and final unearned run of the frame for the Trojans.
Two more came around in the Trojan fourth as a one-out single by Savannah Becker paid off with a Jennifer Jones two-run shot to straightaway center field. Kalie Smith would belt a solo shot to left-center leading off the fifth to help give the Trojans their early victory. Pfeiffer's pair of hits would come from Hannah Jackson and Sadie Saine to leadoff the fourth to break up a potential perfect game by Mount Olive starter Carly White.
The Trojans jumped on the board quickly in game two with three in the first taking advantage of two Pfeiffer errors. Katie Moore would pick up a RBI single while Becker recorded a RBI groundout. Mount Olive's other run came in on one of the two errors in the frame. Insurance started in the third as the Lady Falcons fourth miscue of the game resulted in a 4-0 lead for the Trojans.
Pfeiffer came up with seven hits in game two as Tyresha Ellis and Celia Dew had back-to-back base hits in the second while Ellis would be thrown out at third trying to take the extra base on Dew's single. Khristin Isley added another with a two-out single in the fifth while pinch-hitters Lexie Brock and Summer Pope, with a bloop single by Emily Workman, all did the same in the seventh. Brock would score the Lady Falcons first run while Isley's infield single plated Pope with the second. Workman would later score on a wild pitch to make things interesting at the end until Mount Olive held on for the 4-3 win.
Pfeiffer has now finished the 2013 regular season schedule and will advance into the annual Conference Carolinas softball tournament being held this coming Friday-Sunday in Burlington, North Carolina hosted by the City of Burlington. The Lady Falcons will be the eighth and final seed in the tourney taking on top-seeded King in the opening round Friday.

His eponymous line offers a provocative twist on day-to-day garments, where street meets luxury and ones personality shines through style. T by Alexander Wang offers the same ideals, but is centered around tee shirt dressing and pushing basics to a whole new level. Think stretched out necklines, muscle tees, mini patch pocket detailing, and shades of gray, white, and black with pops of color.

The dress is very sexy and forms to your body. I usually wear an 8 in dresses. I ordered both the M and L to try out but ended up keeping the L (fit better in the hip area). I don't normally wear shapewear, but for this dress I will be since it's white and a tad sheer/see-through. The bigger size actually helped because the material didn't stretch as much. One thing to note is the lining underneath is a little shorter than the actual dress. It's a good 2 inches shorter on the L but only 1 inch shorter on the M. Doesn't look bad in my opinion but not sure why they didn't make it the same length as the dress. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase!
