This chocolate banana shake is a throwback to the "shakes" my mom used to make me when I was a child.
It wasn't often that I got to have sweets growing up. My mom never kept junk food in the home and kept my sugar consumption pretty low. I would always get excited when she'd make this and each time I make it as an adult, I am transported back to being a child and hanging out with my mother.
If you're not eating chocolate, you can substitute carob and it is equally delicious. My mom used to make it with carob quite often, so I actually prefer the taste of the carob over the chocolate, just because it reminds me of childhood.
This shake is so rich, creamy, and full of flavor as it is, but if you're extra adventurous you can toss a couple spoonfuls of nut butter in it for an extra tasty treat!

Important Note On Gelatin Types
When it comes to gelatin, you don't want any old gelatin off the supermarket shelves. You want to look for 100% grass-fed gelatin from healthy animals. Just like other animal products, quality is important.
That is why I recommend Vital Proteins Grass-Fed Gelatin products and Perfect Supplements products exclusively. I have compared these brand with other brands on the market and the quality far surpasses anything else I've tried. I am thrilled to be one of their affiliate partners and support such great products and companies.
Perfect Supplements offers a grass-fed hydrolyzed collagen (cold-soluble) right now and has a gelatin (hot-soluble) in the works for 2016. Read my review of their product here or watch the video below. You can order their own products via their own site here or on Amazon here.
If you want to learn more about gelatin and its benefits for our health, I highly recommend this book, The Gelatin Secret: The Surprising Superfood That Transforms Your Health and Beauty, from my affiliate partner, Sylvie McCracken. This book is packed with incredible information on how gelatin helps all aspects of our health and also features delicious recipes!
Shout out to my friend Suzanne from Strands of My Life for shooting the photo for this recipe!

- Add more ice for a thick, ice cream-like shake, or less ice for a thinner version.
- Serves 1-2 (depending on if you want to share!).
If you decide to order a Blendtec, you can save some more money when you place your order through my affiliate link here. When you place your order through this link, you will receive free shipping anywhere in the U.S. and Canada with your order. This will save you a minimum of $15!

Finally...a simple workout program for women that actually works.
FtheFreshman15.com will help you lose unwanted body fat and tone your muscles without wasting your time with over-hyped diet programs and weight loss plans that just don't work. This site will show you how to eat and workout without starving yourself or becoming a slave to the treadmill so you can get the body you want.
Unlike all those macho workout programs for men, this site is entirely devoted to helping women achieve their weight loss goals. You'll learn women-friendly weightlifting workouts designed to burn fat, shape your body, tone your muscles and increase your metabolism.
You won't find quick fix schemes on this site. Looking great is hard work.
You will find everything you need to develop long lasting healthy habits on this site.
Where to start: FtheFreshman15.com contains everything you need to get started. With all those useless Cosmo headlines, weight loss supplements, and silly TV workout gadgets it's easy to get conned into doing an exercise program that is useless, bad for your body or too complicated to stick to. Here, we focus on keeping it simple and sustainable so you can lose fat, tone your muscle and keep it that way.
On this site:
- Daily Fitness Tips. Learn simple tips and habits you can implement into your life to start losing weight and toning up your muscle.
- FREE Workout and Nutrition Guide. Here's a complete quickstart guide that will help you get tone & lose fat through a simple nutrition and workout plan.
- Complete Exercise Index. Not sure how to lift weights? Confused about some of the exercises in the free workout and nutrition guide? Check out the complete library of exercise videos.
- Complete Home Workout Program. No time for the gym? No problem. Imagine a complete workout you can do at home. Get it right here.
The FtheFreshman15.com Philosophy.
Our goal here at F-the-freshman-15 is NOT to make you lose weight through painful starvation diets, torturous cardio regiments, and millions of crunches. (If that's your goal, then please look elsewhere).
Rather, our goal is to help you look great naked by changing the way you eat and exercise in a way that's sustainable, healthy, and enjoyable for LIFE.
No diets. No starving. No pills. No supplements. No Quick Fixes!!!
Just you, your body, lots of good food, hard work, and amazing results!
So, I repeat: we are not here to torture you; YOU are here to make yourself stronger, slimmer, sexier, healthier, and happier for life!
We are here to help show you how.
- It's about eating LOTS of good food. On this plan, you are not allowed to starve yourself, to skip meals, or to go on strange diets! Why?? Well, because food gives you energy, boosts your metabolism, and actually makes you slimmer. NOT eating enough food does just the opposite.
- It's NOT about getting bulky. I PROMISE you will not get bulky on this program! I lift almost every single day, and am definitely nowhere close to "bulky" or manly. The truth of the matter is that it is not even possible for women to get that muscular without steroids. So, steer clear of steroids, and you'll steer clear of the bulk that you don't want (and a whole other host of problems).
- It's about Sustainability. This program is not about just looking great and getting a "beachbody" in time for summer, for 90 days, of for a year or so. Instead, it's about enjoying what you do, loving your body, and looking, feeling, and BEING healthier than ever, for the rest of your life.
- It's about Hard work. This is NOT a quick-fix solution. Granted, you WILL start to see results extremely fast, but not without a lot of hard work and a commitment to change. You WILL get frustrated and discouraged at times, but this is not an excuse to give up. I am here to help you stay on track.
- It's about Progress. Doing the same thing day in and day out at the gym is not only boring as sin… but it doesn't work at all! That's why with our help, you will never do the same workout twice. With this program, you will learn how to keep track of your results in a log, and push yourself to do better each time you go to the gym. This way, you will never reach a plateau.
- It's NOT about being perfect. Despite popular belief that you have to stick to your workout and nutrition plan 100% of the time, this is not the case! We all have bad workouts every once in a while, and we all need a little chocolate and pizza in our lives sometimes. So, strive to stick to the plan 90% of the time, and you will WIN. Strive for 100% perfection, and it's only a matter of time before you fail and give up completely.
- It's about Strength. The stronger you are, the more muscles you have. The more muscles you have, the higher your metabolism, the more energy you have, and the leaner and sexier you can become! That's why we here are dedicated to getting STRONGER, not just skinnier. (Because getting "skinnier" the wrong way will actually make you fatter!)
- It's about Balance. This exercise program will never force you to go to extremes. You will never run yourself ragged on a treadmill, nor will you switch to 100% weightlifting workouts. That's because our program emphasizes that a proper combination of weightlifting and cardio is the healthiest and most effective way to achieve results in the gym.
- It's about Injury Prevention. We will teach you the proper stretching, warm-up, and lifting techniques to make sure that you stay safe and healthy in the gym. We will also provide you with the nutritional tools to recover and benefit as fast as possible from your workouts.
- It's about Simplicity. No fancy supplements, tricks, or diet plans. Just a simple, easy-to-follow program consisting of a nutritious food plan and fun, powerful workouts that you can stick to.

The Gelman Student Exhibitions Gallery and the Dryfoos Gallery for new media within it make student work accessible to museum visitors and the general public in RISD's Chace Center.
All students — undergraduates and graduates in any major — are invited to submit individual or team proposals for group exhibitions in either gallery. The director of exhibitions reviews proposals along with an oversight committee that includes representatives from the Student Gallery Board. Once the concept for an exhibition is approved, each student curator or team works with the gallery staff to select the work, design the exhibition, prepare supporting written material, hang the show, publicize it and plan the opening.

Steamboat Springs — Steamboat Springs' Bryan Fletcher took eighth place in Sunday's FIS Nordic Combined World Cup event in Ramsau, Austria, using a strong jump to earn the highest finish of his career.
The U.S. Ski Team stated in a news release that Fletcher was 13th after Sunday's jumping portion, starting 29 seconds back of leader Mario Stecher, of Austria, who would go on to win the event. Steamboat's Todd Lodwick was 11th after the jump but finished 18th overall, a day after placing fourth in Saturday's event. Steamboat's Taylor Fletcher finished 37th overall.
Bryan Fletcher put a charge into his cross-country race Sunday to snag his fourth point-scoring finish of the year. The Ski Team stated he began moving up in the ranks after the race's first kilometer and, before the 3-kilometer mark, was "on the heels of Lodwick and World Cup leader Jason Lamy Chappuis, of France."
Lodwick began to fall back midway through the race, while Bryan Fletcher hung with a small group chasing Stecher.
"Moving into the second half of the race, Fletcher found himself in an unusual position — leading an aggressive pack of veterans," the Ski Team release stated. "He held his own, pacing the group into the final two kilometers before (Germany's Tino) Edelmann sprinted ahead to break up the group in a field sprint to the finish for second. No one could catch Stecher."
Edelmann finished second overall, 8.6 seconds behind Stecher. Eric Frenzel, of Germany, finished third, at 10.2 seconds back. Lamy Chappuis was fourth Sunday and continues to lead the World Cup halfway into the season.
The Ski Team stated Taylor Fletcher had the sixth-fastest cross-country race Sunday, moving up from 58th after the jump to earn his 37th-place finish.
Before today, Bryan Fletcher's best career finish was 18th, three weeks ago in Kuusamo, Finland.
The Ski Team returns home for the holidays before the World Cup resumes in Schonach, Germany, Jan. 8 and 9. The FIS Nordic Ski World Championships are coming up in Oslo, Norway, with the opening Nordic combined event Feb. 26.

Is acupuncture a viable alternative to medication for overactive bladder in an elderly female population? This GEMSSTAR (R03) application addresses the goals stated by the NIA to help in the transition of specialists towards aging research. This project will address the priorities stated in three ways: (1) Innovation: This projet will attempt to increase the understanding of how a regimen of acupuncture, a novel intervention, for OAB in elderly women might function in a real world setting. This project will be a feasibility and acceptability study addressing concerns about patient tolerance of a regimen of acupuncture, as well as changes in quality of life and overall patient satisfaction with acupuncture. It is a required starting point needed to design larger trials of acupuncture for OAB in an elderly female population. (2) Significance: This project will lead to larger trials and strog evidence based results of acupuncture's effect on this common, chronic and debilitating problem. (3) Approach: It will enlarge the knowledge base in the field of acupuncture and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) for a geriatric population with a rigorous study design and appropriate, well characterized and validated measures. The primary hypothesis of this non-inferiority trial is that acupuncture will provide an equal amount of symptom relief for OAB as medical therapy with fewer side effects. This project is the initial stage in testing that hypothesis. In this randomized trial with a secondary one-way crossover, forty women over the age of 65 with OAB will be allocated to either 8 weeks of acupuncture or 8 weeks of medical therapy for OAB. Those in the medical therapy arm will take a standardized dosage of medication daily. After 8 weeks of medication and a 2 week wash out period they will be transitioned to the 8 week acupuncture protocol. Those randomized to the acupuncture protocol will receive an eight week regimen of acupuncture. Every participant will be followed for 8 weeks post-acupuncture intervention. Each participant will complete symptom, side effect and quality of life questionnaires at enrollment and at set times through the intervention and post-intervention phase of the trial. OAB is a chronic and debilitating problem that is present in up to 30 percent of older community dwelling women and more than half of those living in nursing homes. This project will evaluate whether elderly women with OAB are willing to participate and adhere to treatment and data collection while enrolled in a trial comparing medication and acupuncture and provide preliminary data leading to larger multicenter trials in this field.
With this Grant for Early Medical/Surgical Specialists'Transition to Aging Research (GEMSSTAR) (R03) project, the feasibility and acceptability of using a regimen of acupuncture to treat overactive bladder in elderly women will be assessed and the first steps in a non-inferiority trial between acupuncture and medical therapy for this common, chronic and costly problem will be taken. Side effects will be measured in both groups with the goal of identifying a novel therapy for OAB in elderly women that is well tolerated and maintained in this group of women that are most in need of treatment.

The Takeaway
Doctor Bridges Gap Between Mind and Machine
For Dr. Anthony Ritaccio, the idea of being a human-cyborg isn't just something of science fiction books, but a real world possibility. Ritaccio was born without his right hand, and through his work, as the director of the Epilepsy and Human Brain Mapping Program at the Albany Medical Center and J. Spencer Standish Professor of Neurology at the Albany Medical College, he has learned to map intentions of the human brain. In his lab, Ritaccio is mapping out the electrical layout of the brain, in hopes of building interactions that will one day change the lives of millions of Americans with physical and mental disabilities.

A United Nation conference dealing with how to combat racism opens on Monday in South Africa. The learned minds of the world have gotten together to identify causes of racism, and after considerable length of reflection, they have identified THE source of racism on this planet? Is it the Sudan which has killed 200,000 people in Darfur? Is it in the Congo which has witnessed the death of 5,000,000? Is it in Iran which persecutes Bahai and other minorities? Is it in Pakistan or Afghanistan where women are losing their rights? Is it in Cuba which imprisons thousands who disagree with the government? Is it in China which persecutes Tibetan and Muslim minorities? Is it in Russia where people with darker skins face discrimination? Is it in Saudi Arabia which discriminates against non-Muslims and restricts women rights? OF COURSE NOT!!
We all know there is only ONE nation on this planet which is guilty of racism! And, what is the name of the culprit? None other than ISRAEL!!
There will be no conference on racism this Monday. There will be a love fest by racists who hate Israel.

looking into new set of heads not sure what is best, i have a sbc 350 comp cams 280h cam package 280 advertised duration 480 lift long tube headers edelbrok rpm air gap man edelbrok 600 carb 390 posi rear right now i have the stock iron heads on there except added 194 valves. any suggestion on what heads would be best. looking to go with aluminum
forgot to add i have a 3000 stall
check out your local suppliers to what is available with 180 ish CC runners.Its up to your budget
what would be the best heads
These Dart heads are a good deal for the price. Dart SHP Special High Performance Cylinder Heads 127122 - SummitRacing.com. Of course you will have to check out your engine to know which chamber volume to buy. Keep your C.R. at about 9.5:1 -10:1 and you won't have a problem.
if you're going to invest in some good heads get at least a 195cc runner, otherwise just stick with some vortecs.
thanks for the advice guys, next question is which cc chamber would be best? is it better to go with a smaller chamber or larger, and i want to go with aluminum heads for the weight reduction but what are the negitives to that?
was just looking at those heads u posted on here, they look great for the price and it says there assembled will those springs work with my 480 lift cam? and if i have 9.1 compression now what will it be with the new 64 cc chambers? thanks guys
no i do not, suggestions?
Hello guys,i think its totally depend upon your budget that how much is affordable for you..but my point of view 195cc head is the best for you and its affordable easily...are you use any head in the past or first time you are use??
first time going for new heads, last year i had the heads i have now (stock gm iron heads) redone and had 194 vavles put in. but i wanna switch to an aluminum head that will let it breath better and bigger valves. not to worried about price as long as its worth it in performance.
Stock 350 iron heads that you had 1.94 intakes put into, what is this? Unless the heads were off a heavy duty/industrial engine they came with 1.94 intakes. What is the head casting number?
In selecting the chamber volume for new heads you need to understand the pistons you have. Most pistons have a circular dish, these are not very good for performance nor efficiency regardless of the head used. Other choices that can be there are D dish, flat top, or dome but these don't typically show up in OEM motors so unless this has had some custom bottom end work it's not likely to have these kinds of pistons. So far as pistons go in the 350 flat tops or D dishes work the best and are generally seen with a small chambered head say 58 to 64 ccs. Chambers are best when shaped and generally proportioned around the characteristics of the L31 Vortec. there are aftermarket large chamber heads that use much of the L31 technology but these are really for blower motors or big inch small blocks, not that they couldn't be used in a 350 with domed pistons. Another critical item is the thickness of the head gasket and the clearance distance between the piston crown to the block's deck. These two things control the squish/quench clearance where in combination you want to hit about .040 inch. With a small chambered aluminum head with an unmilled deck, where you can get into trouble is with a thick gasket often specified with an aluminum head, in tis case with a .025 inch deck clearance and a .053 gasket you can end up with a .078 clearance which greatly reduces the effecctivness of squish quench. So you've got to keep an eye on these dimensions and look out for a thin head gasket that is also compatible with the aluminum head. The issue here is that the aluminum head expands and contracts more than either the iron block or steel gasket, so it rubs on the gasket which wears grooves into the softer aluminum. The best and longest lived gasket needs to be made to accomodate this, multi-layerd steel, graphite faces, and composition build ups are used and have different thicknesses, a simple steel shim would become a problem in street or mixed street strip service with the aluminum and iron sandwich. You can get away with a steel sim in this type build up for race only where the heads are just considered an expense item to get into the winners circle, which means it works, but not forever. A zero decked block is probably easier to work from for the street ot street/strip as it allows a thicker mulitlayer or composition gasket to be used which is easier on the head's mounting face so the sealing and the head lasts a long time.
As you can see there are a bunch of things to keep track of all the while realizing there's more than one way to skin this cat.
Assuming stock bottom end, you may be as low as 8:1 comp right now....with 76cc heads. Small Carb, no comp, bigish cam, all of this spells dissapointment. If your leaving the bottom end as is, then get heads with a 58cc chamber, run a 0.015 head gasket, get yourself a 750 Carb, and watch as all of it comes together and makes far more power then you currently have. Call this guy. Speier Racing Heads and tell him what you have, and want to accomplish. His prices are excellent, he is available all hours of the day...and will tailor the heads to your combo.....ie: 58 CC chambers for 10:1 compression.
And there you are.

In college, I lived in a co-ed dorm that had three Erics. They ended up with the nickames Fruitbat, Half-A-Bee, and Schwa. (bonus points for anyone who can figure out the nicename sources.)
Let's say my name is Sally Jane Smith. I got hired at a small family owned company.The owner's name was Sally Joe Scott--same first name, same initals. To avoid confusion, I suggested that I could go by "Jane." But there was already a Jane on staff. So I suggested that I go by "Sally Jane," but there was already a Sally Jane on staff. I ended up just using my initials, so everyone at work called me "SJ." And then we hired another Sally, and yet another Sally Jane. We had "Upstairs Sally Jane," and "Downstairs Sally Jane," and "Sales Sally." The owner remained just plain Sally, but it was very common for people to double-and-triple check just which Sally you meant. (The names have been changed, but the amount of duplication was real. In a company with 30 employees.)
"Silly Sally went to town, walking backwards, upside down..."not quite on the level of Impossible Patron Requests, but,I am a piano teacher. I received a transfer student from a friend teacher (there are three of us that teach out of one private school after hours) My friend teacher basically told me, "good luck!" Well, she was right- the girl has the most basic of basics fall out of her brain week to week. I have students two years younger that have progressed well past her. She NEVER does her practice/homework/worksheets/notebook/lessons/etc...The mom told me that the other teacher was "mean." So I was extra cautious to be "nice" and yes, the girl really likes me. she is very sweet. But cannot remember anything to save her life. I recently started her on a new lesson series just to get her on to something new, a fresh presentation of the basics. The mom was excited that she was getting "more challenging work so she can progress." In actuality, I am stuck in a holding pattern. Until the girl demonstrates that she can remember the most basic of info, that literally, my several kindergarten students have retained and at a much quicker rate, I cannot move this girl on.Mom is happy that girl has new books/music.even though I have shown her the dated pages re-assigned because still blank week after week, even though I write it dwon in the assignment notebook, mom's response is, "Oh, I do not know music so I cannot help her at all. I just tell her to go to her room and practice. She loves to play around on our keyboard!"The "homework" might be, draw a line to match the symbol to the meaning. Or, circle all the quarter notes you see. Or, add a word to this lyric to make it rhyme. Or, you know, actually practice, like, do page 9 in Lesson Book, following outlined practice instructions, and complete Theory worksheet 5, use warm-up page 4 as a daily warm-up. And yes, I mark the pages and have her do it in lesson time. But then she goes home and does...nothing...and the next week's lesson is a complete review of the week prior. And so on.But, the mom thinks the new books will "challenge her so she will progress."Not sure the books are magical. amazing how my students that do the work magically progress!
I was in piano 12 years and, although I progressed, it was slow and painful. I had a very difficult time "getting" music, my brain just doesn't work that way. It irks me today when I hear other mothers talking about how their kids simply have to learn piano because if they don't, the kids will never succeed in life (paraphrased). But, yeah, the least the kid could do is work in the piano theory book.

I don't feel confident enough to predict what the Browns will do with the 12th pick in the first round of the NFL draft next week¸ and I don't believe that anybody who was present at Phil Savage's press conference on Tuesday would have anything more than a guess. There are a couple of reasons for this. As Savage pointed out, the Browns have three major areas of needs to fill---pass rush, rush defense, and the ability to score points.
That sounds pretty simple, and I am sure that a blueprint for any NFL team would have those three areas at the top of their list. But the twelfth spot is tough to predict, because there are so many variables above them. At this point there are not obvious, clear-cut picks for the teams above the Browns, and you can expect even more jockeying for position on draft day.
But one thing remains clear after listening to Savage and director of player personnel Bill Rees, and that is they don't believe that the purpose of this open dialogue is to send up smoke screens. Savage and Reese talked about at least 6 or 7 players at every position, which made me believe that all of them are on their board of around 130 players. When the draft takes place, I am confident that if you check the notes of what was said during the press conference, you will find every player that they took was mentioned on Tuesday.
Half the fun of taking part in conferences like this with the previous regimes was trying to figure out what they left out and what they really meant when they did say something. Until this is proven otherwise I have to assume that Savage is completely open and honest, at least as much as he can be.
It is quite refreshing.
Despite all of the hype surrounding the NFL draft, I will repeat what I said a couple of weeks ago. In the best case scenario, if this year's draft turns out to be very successful (we won't know for three years or so), it still won't be nearly have as much impact as the free agency signings made by the Browns in this off-season. No matter which players they pick in the first two rounds, they won't come close to having the impact of LeCharles Bentley, Ted Washington, Willie McGinest, or Joe Jurevicius.
Times have changed. Free agency used to be used to fill in the pieces of the puzzle. Now, the draft serves that purpose.
Savage talked about the possibility of having Chaun Thompson playing a significant role at linebacker this year. Thompson, out of West Texas A&M, was the second round pick of Butch Davis in 2002. That is interesting because Savage would have never used a high pick from a player from the Lone Star Conference.
I have never understood why players from major conferences and high profile teams don't get the edge just for the fact that they played in front of 100,000 and national television audiences on a weekly basis. Common sense would dictate that a four-year body of work, which can be documented from year-to-year tapes, would play a bigger role than a couple of workouts at the Senior Bowl or the NFL combine.
That may not be the case at all times, but it sure seems that a guy from Ohio State, Michigan, or Southern Cal would be able to adapt to the playbook and external pressures a lot easier than a guy from West Texas A&M.
This year it is possible that there could be six or seven Southern Cal players taken in the first round. The wild card is running LenDale White, the all-time leading scorer in school history (quite a remarkable feat), who shared the ball with Reggie Bush. According to Rees and Savage, if you can just make sure he can get to the game at the right time, you'd have a heck of a player. That is about the most negative thing that anybody heard about any player during the press conference.
White could go anywhere from the tenth pick through the last pick of the first round. Variables like White, and trades are reasons that predicting the entire first round is almost as tough as picking the NCAA basketball tournament.

Here I am!
Thank you very much much, Nissim. Now I understood, and things are clear.
My card is not a Payoneer card, is a card from a local bank (BRD). I asked if I can transfer the money in a bank account directly, because on the Graphicriver withdraw page it says: Envato Prepaid MasterCard® (Payoneer), and I thought I must use the card to withdraw the earning, not just a Payoneer account.
Hello guys! My name is Florin, and I'm from Romania. Here, unlike US or Canada, Paypal isn't a very good online payment system. Beside that it doesn't accept any card, but I've heard cases where the money are blocked by Paypal. And I don't want that. I have a question about the Payoneer, more specifically, if I need the Envato Credit Card. I've tried to make a new account on Payoneer (just to see how it is), and I had the choice to transfer my money to an existing bank account. My question is if this is possible, to transfer my money to a bank account here, in Romania, and not to make another card. I don't want another card because I just got one here, a few days ago, and I don't want to pay for another one. And if there is somebody from Romania, or Eastern Europe, can he/she tell me what method used to withdraw his earning from Envato Marketplaces? (Oh, except SWIFT , I don't have enough money to use it).
Thank you very much!
I'm on Twitter also! http://twitter.com/laurentzziu
I really like this idea, and it's kinda odd that isn't already available, after years of Envato Marketplaces. I hope this will be available soon.
I would like an invite also. If anyone have a big heart … and an extra invite.
You can use photos from Flickr, but make sure you use Advanced Search, and check the "Only search within Creative Commons-licensed content " and the "Find content to use commercially " checkboxes. This is what I do myself.
I love this new theme. Thank you for the info. I love the new style of Google. Looks great.
Thanks to you I just find out about analytics.envato.com . I never knew about it. It's a great tool. I just downloaded iEnvato 2 now. Thank you!

"You hate to see anybody go down," quarterback Joe Cox said. "Everybody was pretty worried at first, but people get hurt in football. We've just got to move on for now, and hopefully he's back in time to play."
Asked whether that meant in time to play Oklahoma State, Cox pleaded ignorance – a refrain repeated by right tackle Clint Boling, who said Jones remained in high spirits despite the injury.
"He's a tough kid," Boling said. "It definitely hurts him not being out there, but I'm sure he'll get back out there as soon as he can, and we'll be ready to have him back, too."
Head coach Mark Richt declined comment on the injury Wednesday and skipped his normal post-practice media session Thursday in order to attend his son's football game.
While the timetable for Jones' return remains vague, Boling said the important point is that the sophomore center will be back eventually, which is a big departure from the season-ending injuries suffered by two of Georgia's starters on the line last season.
"That's the last thing anybody wants is to have anything like last year with that many guys getting hurt," Boling said.

Twenty years after South Africa's liberation from the shackles of apartheid, Musa Novela scoffs angrily at the romantic notion that the black majority has triumphed over racism and injustice.
"The struggle wasn't about being able to marry white people or go to the bathroom with white people," he says. "The struggle was about the land. And the land is still not in the hands of the people."
Mr. Novela, 28, is one of the thousands of ordinary South Africans who have joined a new radical left-wing party, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), which threatens to shake up the country's politics. With its revolutionary promises and its big campaign rallies across South Africa, the new party could pose a serious challenge to the future of the ruling African National Congress (ANC).
While the EFF has little chance of winning South Africa's national elections next week – polls suggest it will finish in third place, with perhaps 5 per cent of the vote – its emergence is a sign of growing discontent with the persistently high rate of unemployment and poverty in the postapartheid society. Those rumblings of discontent are a foreshadowing of forces that could eventually topple the ANC in elections down the road.
The ANC, the liberation movement of Nelson Mandela and other heroes, has never quite fulfilled the left-wing promises that helped bring it to power in 1994. Instead it has awkwardly straddled the line between socialist rhetoric and pro-business policies, trying to reassure the foreign investors and major corporations that could have fled after the ANC took office.
While polls predict that the ANC will win another majority in the May 7 election, the party is increasingly under attack from disenchanted South Africans who expected a more aggressive policy of redistributing wealth and land after the death of apartheid.
In its early years in power, the ANC set a target of transferring 30 per cent of South Africa's agricultural land to the black majority. But it refused to confiscate the farmland, preferring to negotiate deals with willing sellers. As a result, only an estimated 7 per cent of farmland is owned by blacks today.
The ruling party has also rejected calls for the nationalization of big mining companies and banks – another key promise of the EFF party, which is led by former ANC youth leader Julius Malema, a firebrand who gained national fame for his nationalization demands.
"The ANC has failed dismally," says Mr. Novela, wearing the trademark red T-shirt and beret of the EFF, inspired by Che Guevara and other Marxist revolutionaries.
"There are a lot of similarities between the ANC and the apartheid regime," he said at an EFF protest march on Tuesday.
"The apartheid regime used to strangle our people with racist policies, and now the ANC is strangling people with its economic policies. They are all in favour of big business, protecting big business to make big profits, while the people get poorer and poorer."
The left-wing challenge goes beyond the EFF. The traditionally pro-ANC trade-union movement has splintered, with some unions becoming more radical – a trend that has sparked a wave of labour unrest in recent years, including a devastating strike by platinum miners that is now in its 14th week with no end in sight.
Even within the ANC, there is rising discontent from its leftist factions. Ben Turok, an 86-year-old former communist who has served as an ANC member of parliament for nearly 20 years, this month published a scathing critique of how the ruling party has drifted away from its ideals.
Mr. Turok helped to draft the 1955 Freedom Charter, one of the touchstones of ANC historical principles, which called for South Africa's national wealth to be "restored to the people." But today, he says, the ANC is in disarray and confusion.
"There is a pervasive sense of disappointment with the character of the ANC today, its loss of direction and the slippage from its historical mission," Mr. Turok writes in his new memoir.
Instead of fulfilling its progressive economic ideals, he says, the former liberation movement has fallen prey to "careerism, patronage, corruption and the abuse of power."
Many of the ANC's members have displayed "greed" and "a new spirit of acquisitiveness," he says.Report Typo/Error

Can I ask the same question but from the EAst Coast? My hives are three weeks old and I'm still feeding them too every few days. Obviously it's a bit cooler back here than in CA, so should I keep going, or let them fend for themselves?
Here's my DUH question of the day. How do I know if it's capped sugar honey? The caps I'm seeing seem to be white, convex and kind of pockmarked.....
I've had discussions that almost turned into arguments about this. I've shown the difference to folks and they still disagreed.
Nothing was settled. I was told that it depended on where the nectar was from determines the cappings.
Lots of information (and opinions) out there about when and how much to feed established hives, but I can't find too awfully much about when to stop feeding a new package.I'm about to add a second hive body - the package has been in for around 6 weeks. They're doing great - inspected the hive today and saw new larvae in previously used brood cells!They're going through a gallon every 4-6 days. When should I stop feeding them and let nature take over?Thanks in advance.-Craig

North Korea makes bombs as disarmament talks continue
Page Tools
Washington: North Korea was likely to be making nuclear bombs even as it negotiated with the US and four other countries on ending its weapons programs, the senior US official responsible for those talks said on Thursday.
"Time is certainly a valid factor in this," James Kelly, the assistant secretary of state for East Asian affairs, testified before the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
"We don't know the details, but it's quite possible that North Korea is proceeding along, developing additional fissionable material and possibly additional nuclear weapons."
North Korea has admitted producing weapons-grade plutonium since the crisis over Pyongyang's nuclear programs began 20 months ago.
US intelligence analysts believe the number of nuclear weapons held by North Korea has increased from two to at least eight during that time.
But it is unusual for a senior Bush Administration official to concede publicly that North Korea's stockpile of nuclear weapons may be growing.
The first round of talks included China and later expanded to involve South Korea, Japan and Russia.
Democrats on the committee scolded the Administration on Thursday for waiting too long to present North Korea with a detailed proposal on ending the crisis. At the most recent round of six-nation talks,in Beijing last month, the Administration proposed that once North Korea declared it would end its programs, US allies such as South Korea could provide energy assistance.
North Korea then would have three months to reveal its programs and have its claims verified by US intelligence. After that, the US would join in providing Pyongyang with written security assurances and participate in a process that might ultimately normalise relations.
"The bottom line is that we now confront a much more dangerous adversary than we did in 2001," said Senator Joseph Biden, of Delaware, the committee's senior Democrat.
Under questioning, Mr Kelly made it clear that improving relations with North Korea would take much more than dismantling its nuclear programs. In particular, he said, North Korea would need to improve its human rights record.

To begin, my journey has been a long one. Worthwhile in many ways but, it's been a long overdue process in my eyes. As of right now my motivation are my TWO BEAUTIFUL OLDER COUSIN'S, MY BESTFRND, MY R.N., AND MY DARLING NIECE. None of them have had the BBL completed but, my two older cousins and I plan to complete the procedure on the same day. Hopefully all goes well and as planned. #KEEP HOPE ALIVE!
I really wish my spouse was supportive of my decision to have elective surgery. However, that Negro aint going for it to sum up his words you're beautiful the way you are and your insecurities are what's not attractive!
I've desired a juicy booty well let's see now since the 7th grade age 13. The reason hmmm… my juicy biggg booty sister, mother, and auntie! Dem ladies had a$$ for days. Juicy is not even the word I should use to describe that ass ooowweee! See my sister fortunately was born with our mother's side of the family; sexy naturally plump, juicy a$$ plus the hips and thighs to match. On the other hand, my instinctive booty shape is from my father side of the family; square, wide, and flat it looks deflated like all it needs is a boost of injected fat! We all and when I say we all I mean my biological sisters have beautiful faces so I know I'm pretty in the face but, this body has got to match this pretty face. I'm about 5'3 my current weight is 168.2 lbs. and I'm 24 yrs. Old. That has not always been the case though about four years ago I decided to make a change in my life which was to lose weight; how much weight you ask… 65lbs to be exact it wasn't all easy but I did it!
Albeit, I regained 23lbs I plan on shedding the weight before my big day which is set and locked for AUG. 1st 2013 the first surgery of the day 7:30 a.m. but, I know Dr. J works miracles either way. By then I'll finally have some vacation time so I figured it would be the best time to just do it! I also plan on purchasing my airline ticket soon; just waiting on my cousin's to lock in their dates. Ughhhh hurry up!!! ? Love yall
I've been conducting research regarding the BBL for at least eight years. I spoke to a women name Carmen back in "08" and "09" who I heard was popular in the black market world on completing the hydrogel booty injections and silicone but, truly I just wasn't comfortable with the notion it was just too risky. Some of the thoughts that ran through my mind were like "what if something happens to me during or after this link up at the hotel, $h1t what if this results in death?" It is illegal so who am I supposed to call if something goes wrong?"
There were no forms to fill out no follow-ups I just wasn't comfortable dropping all that money and then there be no real outcome like I said it was just too risky. I was sent several photos of other women who had the hydrogel injections and believe me. I was sold at first and for a long time after that but, I could never get myself to actually go through with it. Plus I've read a massive amount of horror stories it's just sad what some of those women went through before and after their illicit procedures. My conclusion of the fat hydrogel injections everyone's body reacts differently so results are just 50/50. Damn it's some JACKED UP people out here that will do whatever for a dollar!!!
Before Carmen though I was thinking of Dr. Constantino Mendieta and after Carmen I was thinking of Mendieta but, I could never come up with Mendieta funds his prices were like $15,000 then my credit was not up to par so I could not receive an approved lender. Mendieta had the results I thought I was looking for but pricey although price shouldn't factor your overall decision. As time went on I discovered Dr. Leonard Tachmes and a few others at Coral Gables their images were a-i-g-h-t BUT nothing I really enjoyed looking at. Dr. Tachmes did have one photo on his website that I enjoyed but, that was about it. His prices were extremely reasonable.
I finally learned of Dr. Jimerson on December 2010 and fell in love with the majority of the booties he had on display. Had a consultation on January 2011 with Jimerson his prices were lower than cash price $7,200 and finance $8,800.00. His booties were looking fine than but, in my mind I just knew the brother was going to learn how to perfect his craft and sure enough he did. (Got them derriere's looking riiiight!) On November 12, 2012 I had a two way phone consultation the consult consisted of me, one of my older cousin's, Dr. J, and Monica it went fairly well and they were pleasant. Now days Dr. J-Curves cash price is $8,800.00 and financing is $9,300 plus additional fat transfer to hips is $1,000.00 and any other additional lipo area $900.00. However, due to his growing new popularity and high demand Dr. Jimerson will be increasing his prices. I don't know when or how much but he said it himself he is in the process of altering rates but is not sure when he will make the alterations. Some of his staff advises him to make the alteration effective in mid-December 2012 or January 2013 so ladies my advice to you ladies that have decided to have Dr. J. as your surgeon do your best to lock in before the prices increase. Right now there's a $500.00 non-refundable deposit required to lock in rate and date it is also implemented towards the overall cost of procedure. I'm so grateful to say I've locked in my date; sure glad I locked in my rate when I did. I just refuse to let him increase his price on me again I know it's nothing personal Dr. J and I understand a brothers got to eat and when a man can contour an individual's body like you do you deserve what your worth, every single penny. #IJS… I have a feeling he's about to get a lot more pricey. I have another phone consultation this time three-way May 14, 2013 and then the big day three months later.
I discovered realself.com through a good friend. Since then I've become a realself junkie lol.. Just like so many other women that become in sync with the website. I've read pretty much all of you ladies stories and each journey is unique some fascinating than others but all entertaining and worth reading. I'm always checking for a new story so I figured I mind as well start posting I don't have to post every day. I'll just keep everyone updated every now and then. I'll upload my 168lbs images a little later today.
Until next time BBL SISTAHS,
Go check out that Billy Blue!

Saturday should see mid 80s temperatures with 14 miles per hour winds from the south/southwest. No rain is expected.
Sunday's weather should be very similar to Saturday's forecast.
Gametimes (All times are Central) - Friday 6:00 p.m. | Saturday 1:00 p.m. | Sunday 1:00 p.m.
6-Year Series History - Mississippi State is 4-9 versus Vanderbilt teams coached by Tim Corbin.
Coaches - Tim Corbin has been Vanderbilt's head coach since 2003. During that time, his teams have won 239 games and lost 130. In SEC play, he has a 96-83 record. He has seen his teams win one SEC championship and appear in four postseason NCAA Regionals with one advancing to Super Regional play. His teams overall NCAA postseason record is 9-8.
During his five years as the head coach at Kentucky, Cohen, in his first season at Mississippi State, quickly turned a program around that had won just 126 games in the previous five seasons (47 in SEC play) to a program that had a 175-112 W-L overall record and 63-85 in SEC play. His teams won one SEC Championship during that period, the first in Kentucky history. He also produced a school-best 44-win season twice (2006, 2008) while there. In his last three seasons at Kentucky, his teams were 127-55 overall, with the 127 wins tied for second best among all 12 conference teams, trailing only Vanderbilt's 133 wins. Two of his five teams appeared in NCAA Regional play, although neither team advanced to the Super Regionals. His teams overall record in NCAA postseason play at Kentucky was 4-4.
Mississippi State Road/Vanderbilt Home Records - MSU is 4-12 on the road while Vanderbilt is 17-7 at home.
Expected Pitching Rotations - Junior LHP Mike Minor (3-3, 3.15 ERA) will start Friday's game for Vanderbilt with sophomore RHP Caleb Cotham (5-4, 4.91 ERA) the Saturday starter and junior RHP Drew Hayes (3-2, 4.44 ERA) the Sunday starter.
Minor is considered one of the top pitching prospects in the nation and should go high in the June Major League Draft. And at first glance his 3.15 earned run average backs up that statement. But when you look a little deeper, you find out his SEC starts have been an up and down affair. What is surprising is he's performed much better on the road in the SEC than he has at home. In his three SEC road starts he has an ERA of 1.64 (4 ER, 22 IP) while at home his ERA is a very high 6.23 (12 ER, 17.1 IP). Minor is at his best in the first four innings. If you take out the 4 runs Ole Miss scored in their 4th inning against him, he's given up just 5 runs in those innings in his 6 SEC starts. That would translate to an ERA of 1.95. The 5th inning is usually when teams start hitting him, with him having given up 8 runs in that inning during his SEC starts. Also keep an eye out for the 7th inning because he has given up 4 runs in that inning during his SEC starts. You can expect Minor to go 6 to 7 innings.
Cotham has had his troubles in SEC action whether it be at home or on the road. In home starts he has an ERA of 6.75 (13 ER, 17.1 IP) while on the road he has an ERA of 7.56 (14 ER, 16.2 IP). In his 34 innings of SEC action, he has given up at least 1 run in 17 of them. And in 8 of those innings, he has given up 2 or more runs. His biggest nemesis in SEC games has been the home run. In his 34 innings of work he has given up 11.
Hayes, a 1 to 2 inning reliever for most of the season, got his first SEC start of the season last weekend against Alabama. Although he gave up 3 runs in 4.2 innings of work, he actually did well for the first four innings, giving up just 1 run. Bama knocked him out of the game in the 5th.
Sophomore LHP Forrest Moore (2-0, 4.28 ERA) will throw the Friday game for Mississippi State while freshman LHP Nick Routt (4-2, 3.06 ERA) throws Saturday and junior LHP Tyler Whitney (2-3, 4.29 ERA) will throw Sunday's game.
Moore has struggled in his last two outings against Auburn and Tennessee (6 IP, 8 ER, 12.00 ERA), partly due to a minor injury that has kept him from having his best curveball. After resting for over a week (he hasn't pitched since April 12th), the hope is he'll be back to the Moore who performed so well during the early part of the season when he threw 25.2 innings while allowing just 8 earned runs for an earned run average of 2.80. A good indicator as to whether Moore is back in top form will be the number of walks and strike outs he has early on. In his last four outings, he has walked 16 and struck out 17 in 16 innings. When he was at his best early in the season, he struck out 23 and walked 6 in 15.2 innings.
Last weekend, for only the second time in SEC play (he has started 6 SEC games), Routt did not throw a complete game, but he still performed well, allowing 3 runs (2 earned) in 6 innings of work. Routt always gives the Bulldog a great chance to stay in a ballgame, having allowed no more than 4 runs in any of his SEC starts. You can expect him to go 6 to 9 innings in his start. As for how he does on the road in the SEC, Nick has been somewhat solid, giving up 12 runs (11 earned) in 23.0 inning for an ERA of 4.30.
Whitney, who has thrown the Friday game up until this weekend, had his best SEC start of the year last weekend against Kentucky, allowing just 2 runs in 7 innings of work. But that was in the friendly confines of Dudy Noble Field. This weekend's series is on the road, a place that Whitney doesn't perform as well as he does back in Starkville. In fact, in three SEC road starts, he has an earned run average of 6.75 (20.0 IP, 15 ER) while at home his SEC ERA is 2.95 (18.1 IP, 6 ER).
Relief Pitching - Look for Vanderbilt to primarily use five pitchers in the bullpen - Sonny Gray (3-1, 4 Saves, 3.91 ERA) a freshman RHP, sophomore RHP Taylor Hill (1-1, 1 S, 4.50), sophomore LHP Sean Bierman (2-1, 4.62), sophomore RHP Russell Brewer (1-2, 2 S, 2.84) and sophomore RHP Chase Reid (3-0, 3.52).
Gray has the most saves on the Vanderbilt staff with four. In his six SEC relief efforts, he has closed four games. He throws anywhere from 1 inning to 3 innings. He's been up and down in SEC action. In his last outing he gave up 6 runs in 2 innings after throwing well in his previous two performances.
Hill has also closed four games for Vanderbilt. As of late, he's normally been used to get an out or two after starting SEC play with two four-inning relief efforts. More often than not he's going to give up 2 or more runs in his outings. In fact, of his six SEC pitching efforts he has given up 2 or more runs 4 times.
One of the most effective Vanderbilt relievers is Brewer. He has pitched in four SEC games and has only given up 2 run in his 6.2 innings of work. He normally throws a couple of outs or an inning, although last weekend he closed out a game by throwing 3.1 innings, giving up no runs in the outing.
Bierman has been more of a long relief type reliever who can finish a game if it requires a pitcher who can throw 2 to 4 innings. In fact, in his one performance last weekend he finished a game by throwing 4.2 innings of scoreless ball.
Reid is a guy who can give you an out or two or go up to two innings. In his three SEC outings he has thrown 3.1 innings without giving up a run.
Mississippi State will probably use five primary pitchers for bullpen action this weekend - senior RHP Lee Swindle (1-3, 6.43, 3 Saves), senior LHP Jared Wesson (2-0, 6.43), junior RHP Greg Houston (1-1, 6.75, 1 S), redshirt freshman RHP Paxton Pace (2-0, 2.08) and freshman RHP Caleb Reed (2-1, 10.50).
Swindle has been up and down of late. After allowing 0 runs in 6.1 innings in three outings, he has allowed 8 runs (7 earned) in 5.0 innings in his last two outings. He's normally going to be a middle inning guy who can give you 2 to 3 innings.
Wesson has a solid fastball that is normally in the high 80s range. When he's on, he's really good, but like Swindle he's been up and down this year. Lucky for Mississippi State he's looked good in his last three appearances, giving up no runs on 3 hits and 3 walks while striking out 4 in 5.1 innings of work. When pitching well, the State coaching staff will usually pitch him for a couple of innings.
Houston started out the season as State's middle reliever and did well in that role early on, but, as of late, he's really struggled, giving up 14 runs (13 earned) in 10.1 innings of work.
State's coaches will normally use Pace, who is coming off Tommy John surgery, for an inning during an SEC weekend. And he's usually going to throw strikes, having walked just 1 in his 8.2 innings of work this season. Although he's given up 6 runs in the 8.2 innings, only 2 were earned.
Reed has only pitched in one SEC game this season, but he could see a little more duty this weekend if senior RHP Chad Crosswhite can't go. Crosswhite, who normally throws relief during SEC weekends, threw a little over 100 pitches Wednesday night in a start against Middle Tennessee.
Who's Hot at the Plate and Who's Not in the Last 5 Games (Hitters have to have 5 or more at-bats in the 5 games to be added to this list) - Vanderbilt has six hitters batting at least .300. Leading the way is Riley Reynolds, who is hitting .421 (8-for-19, 1 RBI). Next up is Brian Harris at .350 (7-for-20, 7 RBI). Three players come in at .300 - Andrew Giobbi (6-for-20, 5 RBI), Curt Casali (6-for-20, 3 RBI) and Aaron Westlake (6-for-20, 1 RBI). In limited action, Alex McClure is hitting .333 (2-for-6, 2 RBI).
Others - Joe Loftus is hitting .273 (6-for-22, 0 RBI), Steven Liddle is hitting .227 (5-for-22, 2 RBI), Jason Esposito comes in at .158 (3-for-19, 0 RBI), and in limited action Drew Fann is hitting .167 (1-for-6, 0 RBI).
Mississippi State has nine hitters hitting .333 or better, including five who are hitting .412 or higher. Leading the Dogs at the plate is an extremely hot-hitting Ryan Collins, who comes in hitting a phenomenal .625 (10-for-16, 7 RBI), Also hitting very, very well is Grant Hogue, who comes in at .455 (10-for-22, 1 RBI), Not far behind him is Jet Butler at .412 (7-for-17, 1 RBI). In limited action, two players are hitting .429 - Brent Brownlee (3-for-7, 1 RBI) and Frank Rawdow (3-for-7, 0 RBI). Russ Sneed is hitting .333 (7-for-21, 7 RBI) as is Luke Adkins (4-for-12, 3 RBI). In limited action, Ryan Duffy (3-for-9, 1 RBI) and Jason Nappi (2-for-6, 2 RBI) are hitting .333. Although only hitting .250, Connor Powers has been a very productive hitter with 6 RBI to go along with his 5-for-20 hitting.
Others - Scott DeLoach is hitting .267 (4-for-15, 2 RBI), Ryan Powers is hitting .188 (3-for-16, 2 RBI), Cody Freeman is batting .167 (2-for-12, 2 RBI) and Nick Hardy, in limited at-bats, comes in at a .143 clip (1-for-7, 0 RBI).

Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (Crisler Arena)
Event: NCAA Ann Arbor Regional Championships
U-M Team Finish: 1st of 6 Teams (197.075)
Records: U-M (22-5)
Attendance: 2,809
Next U-M Event: Fri-Sun., April 15-17 -- at NCAA Championships (Cleveland, Ohio)
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The No. 9-ranked University of Michigan women's gymnastics team overcame a fall in the very first routine of the NCAA Ann Arbor Regional Championships to stick 23 straight routines and cruise to a 197.075 total to win the regional title Saturday night (April 2) at Crisler Arena. Earning the third-highest regional score in program history and the team's highest team score of the year, Michigan led from start to finish, winning three of four individual event titles and the all-around.
Regional underdog Kent State pulled off a historic upset, catching No. 4-ranked Stanford and outdueling No. 16 Ohio State and No. 23 Minnesota in the final rotation to finish second and punch its ticket to nationals. The Buckeyes took third, Stanford and Minnesota tied for fourth, and Iowa State took sixth. Michigan and Kent State automatically qualify for the NCAA Championships, held April 15-17 in Cleveland, Ohio.
Senior Kylee Botterman (New Lenox, Ill./Lincoln-Way Central) led an all-around effort, capturing the floor exercise title (9.925) and the all-around crown (39.500), giving her five regional titles in her career, including three straight floor titles and back-to-back honors in the all-around. Botterman was also honored as the NCAA Northeast Regional Gymnast of the Year following the meet, becoming just the fourth U-M gymnast to earn the honor in program history.
Fifth-year senior Jordan Sexton (Weddington, N.C./Weddington) and senior Trish Wilson (Naperville, Ill./Neuqua Valley) shared the uneven bars title with matching scores of 9.900, giving Sexton back-to-back regional titles on bars and continuing Wilson's comeback story in her final season of gymnastics following four ACL surgeries.
Freshman Joanna Sampson (Willow Grove, Pa./Upper Moreland) broke onto the regional scene with a vault title, scoring a season-best 9.900 -- Michigan's first vault crown at regionals since 2002.
Michigan opened the meet with a fall on beam but rather than crumble, the next five gymnasts stuck their routines to give the Wolverines a respectable 48.975 team score and a 0.025 lead through the first rotation. Botterman and sophomore Katie Zurales (Wheaton, Ill./Wheaton Warrenville South) put exclamation points on the rotation with 9.850 and 9.875 scores, respectively, with Zurales finishing the night with runner-up honors on the event and tying a season best with her effort.
After sitting out a rotation, the Wolverines opened floor with a pair of 9.825s -- the third-highest scores of the night -- before Sexton broke things open with a 9.875, followed by back-to-back 9.900 scores from freshman Reema Zakharia (Miami, Fla./Coral Gables Senior High) and sophomore Natalie Beilstein (Butler, Pa./Knoch). Capping the rotation was Botterman and her 9.925, posting the highest score of the night through three teams and staking Michigan to a 0.600 lead over second-place Stanford through two events.
Michigan moved directly to vault where the Wolverines rocked all six routines to score a 49.325 -- the fourth-best score of the year. Sampson nailed a 9.900 with the third routine and Beilstein and Botterman stuck matching 9.875s to give Michigan a near full-point lead over second-place Stanford and the rest of the field with one event remaining.
Michigan then attacked bars, scoring 49.350 -- just 0.025 points shy of the third-best regional score in program history. Sexton nailed a 9.900 routine to defend her regional crown on the event and sophomore Brittnee Martinez (Colorado Springs, Colo.) returned to full form after battling injuries all year, tying a career high with a 9.875 to tie for third on the event. Wilson's 9.900 helped her share the regional title with Sexton. Wilson, who is returning for one last season of gymnastics after six knee surgeries and four torn ACLs, has reached the podium in six of the last seven meets, taking two titles and finishing third at Big Tens on bars.
The Wolverines take a week off before traveling to Cleveland for the NCAA Championships. Michigan will learn its championships schedule on Monday (April 4) -- check MGoBlue.com for details.

Michigan captured its eighth NCAA regional title and the first since 2006. The Wolverines have now won four regional titles in Ann Arbor, advancing to NCAAs all seven time they hosted.
Four Wolverines captured three event titles and the all-around crown. The last time Michigan had four event winners in a regional was 2002 when Elise Ray (vault, beam, all-around) and Calli Ryals (floor) dominated the field.
Michigan's 197.075 team score was the third-best regional finish in program history behind 2001 (197.225) and 1997 (197.700).
Michigan's 49.325 vault score was the fourth highest in 12 meets.
Michigan's 49.350 bars score was the highest of the season.

At the conclusion of the meet, senior Kylee Botterman was named the NCAA Northeast Regional Gymnast of the Year. She is just the fourth Wolverine gymnast in program history to win the award and the first since 2008 when Lindsey Bruck (2004-08) earned the honor.
Senior Kylee Botterman captured the all-around and floor exercise titles, giving her three straight regional floor crowns and back-to-back regional all-around titles. Her five career regional titles rank fourth all-time in program history behind Elise Ray (eight), Sarah Cain (seven) and Beth Wymer (six).
Senior Kylee Botterman is the only Wolverine to win three regional floor titles and the only gymnast since Beth Wymer to win a pair of regional all-around crowns.
Fifth-year senior Jordan Sexton defended her regional bars crown, becoming one of five Wolverines in program history with multiple regional bars titles. Lauren Mirkovich (three), Elise Ray (three), Sarah Cain (two) and Beth Wymer (two) each captured multiple bars titles.
Senior Trish Wilson won her first regional bars title and becomes the 12th Wolverine gymnast to win a bars title at regionals.
Freshman Joanna Sampson takes the regional vault title and becomes the first Wolverine since 2002 to do so. Sampson becomes the seventh member of an elite group of Wolverines who have won a vault title in their careers.
Head coach Bev Plocki picked up her 22nd win of the season with the sweep, giving her 19 20-win campaigns in her 22-year career.

Yes you do raise a good point there but I guess the way of thinking is that it looks cool. And I know when you first glare at something like that and can't tell what it is at first it just makes you so curious. That it makes you wont to click on it just to see what it is, and if it's good enough. You buy it and wear it so other people will want to come up to you just to see what it is too and that right there is a conversation starter. Well at least that is how I met some of my friends.
Re: Squid and Crossbones
Knew this was yours as soon as I saw it. Awesome design!
Is this Romney, not the rabit you idit, the other guy!
Re: Karate Kat - silver
I you resubmit with a better thumbnail, I bet this would do much better. That little paw isn't a compelling preview.
Re: Rising in the East
What color shirt is this?
Re: Knock, Knock... Trick or Treat
I LOVE the style but I'm not a Halloween person.
Re: Imagination
This design is cute but the color makes it not as desirable and the thumbnail nearly made me not click it at all.
Love it Rads! Awesome mix.
Love those characters!
Amazing work mate! +1

It is on cream. Creme?
Thanks for all the feedback! :-)
Re: barn owl's dinner -unless!
This very scene happened in a tree on my driveway a few months ago. I started my car up, and just then a big ole owl landed on a branch about 8 feet above the driveway, and it was kind of pecking down at its feet. I finally realized it had a snake between its feet, and the snake was striking at it while it was trying to bite the snake. it was amazing!

The power of a thumbnail hehe.
Thanks for the suggestion but I do not think this design is considered for the Derby, so for now I will not spend more time ;)

Thanks, sombrillo! I had a hard time thinking of something to do. I wanna see how this late entry business will work out for me.

Glad you like it! Squid are pretty cool.
Re: Armed with Tunes
I have got to have this.
Re: Pocket Dragons
This is a really cool picture and I would wear this but the tumbnail picture doesn't do it any good, I hope people click on the designs before voting.
You did such a great job telling a story with this one!
Re: Ragnarok
When can I buy this ?
Man I want this one
Oh WOW! I think I have a new favorite!
Thanks everyone for the nice comments; now I wish I had submitted earlier.
Re: The Last Dragon Hunter
Would buy. Yes.
Re: click b click a click n click a click n click a
Yay! I need this design. It's got a huge 1950s Mad Magazine vibe to it. Once again, the Master of the Facial Expression comes thru. If this doesn't print, I shall be sad.
Please, please, please I want a Kevlar robot!
Re: Pug Parka
This is kinda crazy, I like it!
Boy, this is great.

Something smaller and right over the heart would appeal to me as well.
Re: Bear Knuckle Boxer
I wouldn't bet against that bear. Spectacular design!

No, but this is.
Sadly, the orange one disappeared before I could get his legs fixed.
Re: Hamadryad
Beautiful work!
Re: rain dancer
This is fantastic!
