Seeks safety of principal and high current income that is exempt from federal and California income taxes.
Goal and Strategy
Total return and current income that is exempt from federal and CA income taxes through investment-grade, long-term municipal bonds.
Distinguishing Characteristics
Seeks to provide monthly California state and federal tax-free income while avoiding Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) exposure.
A Note About Risk
The lower-rated securities in which the fund invests are subject to greater default and liquidity risk, because the issuers of high-yield securities are more sensitive to real or perceived economic changes. Interest rate changes are among the most significant factors affecting bond return. Generally, as interest rates rise, the value of the securities held in the fund will decline. The opposite is true when interest rates decline. Investment income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT). Capital gains are not exempt from state and federal income tax. There is no guarantee that the investment objectives will be met. Dividends and yields represent past performance and there is no guarantee that they will continue to be paid.

Data reflects past performance for Investor Class shares, assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than data shown. Investment return and principal value fluctuates. Redemption value may be more or less than original cost. Obtain performance data current to the most recent month end. For additional share class information, consult the prospectus. Extraordinary performance is attributable in part to unusually favorable market conditions and may not be repeated or consistently achieved in the future.
Because the fund invests primarily in California municipal securities and securities issued by U.S. territories, its yield and share price will be affected by political and economic developments within the state and territories.
There is no guarantee that all of the fund's income will be exempt from federal or state or local income taxes. The portfolio managers are permitted to invest up to 20% of the fund's assets in debt securities with interest payments that are subject to federal income tax, California state or local income tax and/or the federal alternative minimum tax.This fund is not available in all states.

robots.txt must not be used to ban large portions of your site. Even if you ban significant portions of your site, search engine spiders may mark your site as "forbidden" in general and simply stop spidering your site as often.
This is the first time that I encounter such theory. In general search engines push towards cleaner internet. They want you to organize your website so they can index less and provide more. It is all about resource preservation. So I doubt that this theory has real facts behind it.
I agree with Jack. Let Google have free rein to crawl all over your site and index as much or as little of your site as it wants to. Yes, by all means use robots.txt and rel=nofollow to block off areas of the site that won't make sense to search engines or as landing pages, but apart from that let Google decide how it wants to deal with your site and you are likely to better than if you try to dictate or second-guess too much.
This is a misconception. Search engines will continue to crawl you site--just not the pages/paths you disallow.
The problem is that you might inadvertently close off a route they were using to get to pages that you want them to crawl. The more restrictions you put into place as to where they can and can't go, the bigger the risk that they won't be able to quickly and effectively crawl the areas of the site that you want them to.
Its up to you whether you want to disallow the search engine to crawl your major part of website by using robots.txt or not. If you are using robots.txt to disallow large number of pages/directories, it will slow down the crawler. You can use the Meta tags to block the Google Crawler from indexing your website too.
I would have to disagree. Lets assume you run complex software where you want to disable various sections that have no particular weight to any content. This way you save your resources as well.For example this is Sitepoint robots.txt
User-agent: *Disallow: /searchDisallow: /memberDisallow: /privateDisallow: /sendmessageDisallow: /reportDisallow: /postingsDisallow: /editpostDisallow: /newreplyDisallow: /showpostDisallow: /online
User-agent: BoardTrackerDisallow: /
That's what I meant by "by all means use robots.txt and rel=nofollow to block off areas of the site that won't make sense to search engines" ... areas of the site that you can only use when logged in don't make sense to search engines so they don't need access to it.
Well my experience is different. I have blocked 75% links of my website i.e I have four languages and out of these my site is only ready for english. I just cant allow Google to crawl my other 3 language pages as if it does it does it drop rank of my english version site as I am using Google translator for most my pages.
Google still needs to improve and above all its bot so we cant trust it and have to make sure it should not see anything which it does not understand.

North Carolina hires Arizona State's West
Posted February 9, 2013
Updated February 14, 2013
Chapel Hill, N.C. — North Carolina head coach Larry Fedora has hired Ron West as the Tar Heels' co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. West, who coached previously with Fedora at Baylor and defensive coaches Vic Koenning and Dan Disch at Illinois, comes to Chapel Hill after a year at Arizona State where he served as the Sun Devils' co-defensive coordinator.
"Ron is familiar with our staff and he brings a great deal of success and experience from his previous coaching stops," said Fedora. "He's an excellent teacher of defensive fundamentals who gets the most out of his players. His knowledge of the ACC and ability to recruit in this area of the country will help our program."
Fedora also named Randy Jordan as the special teams coordinator and changed responsibilities among Carolina's defensive assistants.
Koenning, who also worked with West at Clemson (2005-08), will continue in his role as UNC's associate head coach for defense, but will now coach the safeties. Dan Disch continues as the defensive coordinator and will coach cornerbacks. Keith Gilmore was hired last week as the defensive line coach. All four defensive coaches have worked together at some point in their careers.
A 1979 Clemson graduate, West was an assistant coach for 10 seasons (1999-2008) with the Tigers where he worked with Koenning from 2005-08. Clemson won 76 games and played in nine bowl games during his tenure.
In 2012, Arizona State finished third in the country in pass defense, allowing just 167.9 yards per game, 10th in pass efficiency defense (105.5 rating) and was 27th overall in total defense (350.7 ypg). The Sun Devils led the nation in tackles for losses, ranked second in sacks and fourth in passes intercepted. Before West's arrival in Tempe, Arizona State was 91st in total defense, 59th in sacks and 57th in tackle for loss.
West helped develop linebacker Brandon Magee into a first-team All-Pac-12 performer. Magee led the team with 113 tackles, including 12.5 tackles for losses and 6.5 sacks.
West has more than 30 years of collegiate coaching experience, including 17 on defense and nine as a coordinator. He also has coached 16 years on the offensive side of the ball. West was the outside linebackers coach at Illinois from 2010-11. West spent the 2009 season as the co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at Tulsa.
West implemented the Devil position at ASU, which is modeled after the Bandit, a linebacker role that he had great success with in both the Big 10 and the ACC at Illinois and Clemson, respectively. His defenses at both universities recorded top-10 national finishes in total defense and enabled numerous players to garner both All-America and All-Conference accolades, as well as find success in the professional ranks.
In 2011, the Fighting Illini finished seventh in the nation in total defense with West's linebackers helping to lead the charge, allowing just 286.15 total yards per game and holding its opponents to just 4.42 yards per play. Illinois was also third in passing yards allowed per game at 162.31 ypg and finished 26th in rushing yards allowed per game with 123.85 ypg.
Illinois Bandit Michael Buchanan had a breakout 2011 season, registering 64 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss and 7.5 sacks en route to second-team All-Big Ten honors. He ranked fifth in the Big Ten in sacks and eighth in TFLs.
In 2010, West guided Fighting Illini linebacker Nate Bussey to a seventh-round NFL draft selection and All-Big Ten honorable mention recognition after totaling 83 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss and an interception returned for a touchdown. Buchanan also posted a strong season in 2010 with 40 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss and two sacks.
While on the defensive coaching staff at Clemson, where West coached the outside linebackers for five seasons, his defenses ranked in the top 25 in total defense three times. The 2004 defense ranked in the top-25 in all four major categories, including a top-10 finish in scoring defense and total defense, and his 2005 Tigers' defense finished among the top 25 in six defensive categories. Clemson's defense also placed 18th in total defense and 13th in scoring defense in 2008.
In 2006, West coached one of the greatest players in Clemson history, the late Gaines Adams, who excelled in the Bandit system and became the No. 4 overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft. Adams was named to all five All-America teams in 2006 and was recognized as one of seven unanimous first-team All-Americans that year. He started all 12 games that season, recording an ACC-best 12.5 sacks, causing two fumbles and recovering three. He finished his career with 28 total sacks to tie the school record set in 1984-87.
West began his stint on the Tigers' coaching staff as offensive line coach in 1999, and coached the offensive line for five seasons and spent the final five on the defensive side of the ball.
West helped Clemson to a number of big victories during his tenure, including a 63-17 win over South Carolina in Columbus, S.C., in 2003, marking one of the biggest defeats in legendary coach Lou Holtz's career. West's offensive line helped pave the way in that game as the Tigers scored the most points by either team in the 100-plus years of the cross-state series. Other notable wins include a 26-10 win over No. 3 Florida State and a 27-14 win over No. 7 Tennessee in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl in 2003, as well as a 24-17 overtime win at No. 10 Miami in 2004.
Before arriving at Clemson, West spent two years on Tommy Bowden's coaching staff at Tulane University (1997-98), where he coached the offensive line. His influence as line coach in '97 saw the Green Wave total nearly 4,700 yards and a school record 375 points. A year later, Tulane posted a 12-0 record as the offensive line helped pave the way for an offense to average over 300 passing yards and 200 rushing yards.
West began his coaching career as a graduate assistant coach at West Alabama in 1979. He was at East Carolina in the spring of 1980 and became the offensive line coach at North Texas for the 1980 season. In 1981, West joined the Texas Tech coaching staff as the offensive line coach and coached special teams. He served in that capacity for four years before moving to defense in 1985 as the assistant linebackers coach.
His next stop was at Louisiana-Lafayette where he spent seven seasons (1986-92) as defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach. His defenses were ranked among the nation's top-20 in total defense three times. West joined the Baylor coaching staff for four seasons (1993-96) as offensive line coach and served as the running game coordinator in his final year.
A 1979 graduate of Clemson, West was a reserve offensive lineman in 1977 and 1978 for the Clemson Tigers. He started two games as a senior and helped his team post an 11-1 record and earn a No. 6 national ranking in the final Associated Press poll. His playing career began at Marion Institute, where he earned junior college All-America accolades before transferring to Clemson.
West and his wife Becky have two adult children, Brad and Lori.

Children are heaven sent. Prayers sent from Colorado.
Children are heaven sent. Prayers sent from Colorado.
My son was born Sunday morning at 1:50AM, at 23 weeks and 2 days, 1 pound 1 ounce.
He was taken directly from the delivery room to the neonatal intensive care unit and is now stable and doing very well for his gestational age. He's by no means out of the woods, he's a long way from it, but he does not have major bleeding and he was negative for an infection and those are the two biggest threats to him at this point.
Thank you all for the prayers and please keep the coming, he and all of the other babies in the neonatal ICU needs all the help they can get.
The doctor that admitted my wife to the hospital here saved my son's life. We live 1.5 hours from the hospital he's in, if the doctor had sent my wife home, she most likely would have delivered up there. He is only alive now because they were able to move him directly into the ICU, had we been at home, he would not have survived.
Thank you all again.
Ah, the nostalgic aroma of a yak dung stove brewing up some tea full of herbs best left untranslated.
From the Zen Backpacking Site
Stay up- and the very best wishes to your family.
Glad to hear the battle is in your favor! Keep us updated
Thanks for the update. Enjoy every second, take nothing for granted, and keep the faith. We are all here to support you and your family, bud.
You have been blessed with a loving wife, a son, as well as the grace for a strong faith. God never gives us more than we can handle, although at times the burden is tough. May you have peace in your heart and your son to grow tall and strong to walk the land and follow the path of his father. Amen.
Prayers from California for you and yours. Godbless.
Glad to hear he is in good care, praying that he continues to do well and for strength.
Prayers doubled, friend.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Hang in there JMSZ. You're not alone in all of this.
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
Isaiah 41:10
I hope thing keep going good. Thanks for the update, I've been thinking about your family everyday. The prayers are still going up my freind.

Stefano Domenicali said it was time for a "significant change" as he announced his resignation as team principal of Ferrari.
The Italian has fallen on his sword after the team's poor start to the Formula One season.
Ferrari have struggled to match their rivals under this year's new regulations and at the most recent grand prix in Bahrain, their cars finished ninth and 10th.
Marco Mattiacci, who has been working as president and chief executive of Ferrari's North American operations, will take over responsibility for the F1 team.
Domenicali said: "There are special moments that come along in everyone's professional life when one needs courage to take difficult and very agonising decisions.
"It is time for a significant change. As the boss, I take responsibility, as I have always done, for our current situation.
"This decision has been taken with the aim of doing something to shake things up and for the good of this group of people that I feel very close to.
"With all my heart, I thank all the men and women in the team, the drivers and the partners for the wonderful relationship we have enjoyed over all these years. I hope that very soon Ferrari will be back where it deserves to be.
"My final words of thanks go to our president, for having always supported me, and to all our fans. I only regret that we have been unable to harvest what we worked so hard to sow in recent years."
Domenicali, 48, first joined Ferrari in 1991, working in administration, before becoming team manager in 1996 and then sporting director six years later.
He succeeded Jean Todt at the head of the Formula One team in 2007 and was officially appointed team principal in 2008.
In his first year the team won the constructors' championship but the drivers' championship eluded him.
Felipe Massa came agonisingly close to depriving Lewis Hamilton of the world title in 2008 and Fernando Alonso saw Sebastian Vettel pip him at the final race in both 2010 and 2012.
Alonso also finished second behind the German in 2013 but he was a long way adrift and the Spaniard was widely considered to be out-performing the car he had been given.
In a statement, Ferrari president Luca Di Montezemolo said: "I thank Stefano Domenicali, not only for his constant dedication and effort, but also for the great sense of responsibility he has shown, even today, in always putting the interests of Ferrari above all else.
" I hold Domenicali in esteem and I have watched him grow professionally over the 23 years we have worked together. I now wish him every success for the future.
"I also want to wish all the best to Marco Mattiacci, whom I know to be a highly regarded manager and who knows the company well. He has accepted this challenge with enthusiasm."
Major changes to the sport for this season gave Ferrari a chance to close the gap, but neither driver has been on the podium in the first three races.
The nadir came in Bahrain, where Ferrari's lack of power was obvious as Alonso came home in ninth and team-mate Kimi Raikkonen in 10th.
Alonso called for the team to work "day and night" to improve their performance ahead of the next race in China on Sunday.

Hey everyone I hope to get a lot of feedback good or bad since this is my first mod project I am learning as I go so here is my outlaw, my first offset smoker, stock. You can click on pictures to enlarge them
I found it had some leaking problems, and even temp problems. With the help of you people and some investigating I came up with this.
I put stove gasket in between the sfb and cc and put a basket in
Then put gasket around the cookin chamber
and then fabricated a baffle out of 1/4 inch steel and used copper flashing for mini extension
Then I installed 2 thermometors
I also wanted to make it portable so I got a hitch kit but chargriller said it was not made for sfb attached so I decided to test that theory I removed the smoker from its frame and hung it in the air using straps to find center of the smoker then I marked the center point and drilled holes and attached cradle then I drilled holes and bolted angle iron to cooking chamber and sfb and welded 1/2 inch square bar to beef it up here is the bottomside view
then painted
then I didnt like the Idea of unbolting and bolting to the frame and having holes in cc so I made a quick disconnect system just bolt angle iron to cooking chamber then drill 5/8 hole through angle iron and tube frame using unibit. I got angle and quick connect pins at Lowes
Now I just have to pull 4 pins and in seconds I can put it to the back of my hitch
I got a few more things I am thinking about Like maybe adding a second stack and making it a reverse flow when needed, but making it so that the heat plate can be removed, and used as a grill, also conventional smoker when I want, and maybe add gas burner to sfb as an option??? Plus Im trying to figure out how I can use all 3 cooking levels and fully load that baby with BBQ I looking forward to any comments and suggestions any of you great folks have, hope to hear from you guys soon and get a lot of replies, always trying to learn thanks everyone and happy bbq
Hi everyone this is part 2 I would just like to say thanks for making me feel welcome I did a trail run today it was 28 degrees this morning I did a couple of more minor mod extended the chimney and made it so it could be removable and turned to go away from the wind I cut it off an old backhoe then brought it to a muffler shop so it would fit snug over the smockstack
then I took 2 baskets from lowes cut them and put them together to make 1 large basket it works great It just clears the ashpan so i can pull ash pan without disurbing the fire!!
It gave me a long burn without touching anything so I think I will be able to do an overnighter
I just did chicken on this run since I didnt know how it was going to act. I had a 20 to 30 degree difference left to right, so I will be needing tuning plates But it was fun to finally get her going. Cold, but fun
One thing I did notice was my sfb vent starts to curl outward when heating up has any of you have that happened?? Love tohere your input
Happy bbq

Its unique hydraulic mechanism is the core of the stool's ability to adjust to an individual's personal seating requirements. The back and seat of the stool can be adjusted for height. When set in "free motion" the stool gives full support in any working position. The famous Swedish furniture designer Professor Bruno Mathsson created The Support Stool, and like many of his works it has become a classic. The stool's ergonomic design is so effective that all medical professionals have embraced it. The Support Stool has been in use in the European and American markets for over fifteen years.

Prize Recipient
Diana Grijalva
Hello, my name is Diana Grijalva. First and foremost, I would like to thank the American Physical Society for their generous scholarship and for the opportunity to converse with accomplished individuals who are offering their own knowledge of experience in the highly competitive and challenging field of physics. I know that this money and mentorship will prove to be invaluable as I strive to reach my ultimate goal, to be an astrophysicist. A little bit about myself: I just recently graduated from J.M. Hanks High School in El Paso, Texas and will be attending Boston University this fal. I was extremely active in school during my four years there, participating in track, cross-country, German Club, Teen Volunteer Corps, National Honor Society, Speech and Debate, National Hispanic Institute, and Voice for All Animals. This year I proudly sered as the Student Council historian and president of our school's UIL Science Team. Four years from now, I will have a degree in physics and astronomy from Boston University and, hopefully, years of research in this area. With this solid background I intend to eventually earn a Ph.D. in astrophysics, enabling me to engage in much research and perhaps even spend some time on the future space station.

City debates home for air monitor
Three parks meet Alberta Environment criteria
Saturday, Apr 19, 2014 06:00 am
Next steps
City residents weighed in this week on which park, if any, should become home to the city�s first ever air quality monitoring station.
City staffers held two open houses this week on the proposed locations for St. Albert�s new air quality monitoring station.
About 25 residents attended the first open house Tuesday at Paul Kane High School.
The city got the station in 2012 and currently has it sitting in storage, said Brent Korobanik, chair of the St. Albert environmental advisory committee (EAC) and board member with the Alberta Capital Airshed group.
�There�s a big gap in our current air monitoring,� he said.
St. Albert is the only Alberta city of greater than 50,000 people that doesn�t have a permanent station, and the station closest to the city is near Edmonton�s Westmount Mall.
�Everyone wants to know what they�re breathing,� Korobanik said.
This station will provide real-time air pollution information used to calculate the air quality health index and help residents track changes in pollution.
The station itself resembles an Atco utility trailer, Korobanik said. It will be fenced, and it will have a tower with an air sampler on it.
�It�s pretty much just a tube with a little whirlybird on top,� he said.
Displays suggested that the trailer itself would measure three by six metres by about two metres tall, and topped by a thin tower for the air sampler. This tower could be anywhere from three to six metres tall, depending on the unit�s location.
The station would take up a maximum of 15 by 15 metres of fenced area, and would likely feature a decorative wrap. It may also be screened by vegetation.
Site selection
Residents answered surveys and put stickers on maps to show where they wanted the station to go.
�We can�t just put a station anywhere,� Korobanik explained, as buildings, valleys, tree stands, tall hills, construction, water bodies and heavy traffic can all affect air readings. That makes much of St. Albert, including the northwest annexed lands, both industrial parks, and anywhere near St. Albert Trail or the Sturgeon River unsuitable as a location.
Once you factor in these and Alberta Environment�s other requirements, the only place you can really put a station like this is in a park, Yanew said.
Air testing previously conducted suggests that Larose Park, Salisbury Park and Fountain Park could all work.
Officials did ask several schools if they wanted to host the station, Yanew added. The schools declined, as it could affect their future expansion plans.
Marian Zajac, who lives in Lacombe, opposed putting the station in Larose Park as he wasn�t a fan of its appearance.
�It�s probably taller than any other building in this area,� he said.
Hundreds of children pass through this area, and he was concerned that one of them could get hurt playing around the station.
�I�m pretty sure sooner or later it will be vandalized,� he added.
Fellow resident Gary Comber expressed concern that the station would affect his enjoyment of the park.
�Our kids and grandkids play there.�
He suggested putting it behind Servus Credit Union Place instead.
�They could fit five of these in there.�
Yanew said the city did consider that spot but ruled it out because it was in a fast-growing industrial area that could be home to pollution-emitting companies. Red Deer put one of its stations in a similar area and now gets high pollution readings as a result, he said.
Ken Crutchfield, who sits on the environmental advisory committee, said he has no problem with any of the sites.
�I would get more upset about the location of a mailbox than I would this,� he said.
Crutchfield said the station would be an �insignificant, almost benign� intrusion on a public space, and would provide residents with useful information about their air.
�It�d be kind of neat to know what the air quality is like that your kids are breathing there on that field,� he said.

Did you know?
The South African War, which included the Orange Free State, was one of Britain's longest and most expensive wars.
The history of the Free State is a portrait of turbulence and turmoil. Previously called the Orange Free State, South Africa's Free Sate province is located between the Orange and Vaal rivers and has seen its fair share of bloodshed.
In the 1800s, the notorious Zulu chief Mzilikazi rampaged through the region, all but wiping out the indigenous peoples that inhabited the area.
Then in 1824, the first Dutch, German and French Huguenot farmers arrived from the Cape, followed by the first families of the Great Trek – a mass migration of Dutch-speaking colonists known as the Voortrekkers who left the Cape in search of independence.
These settlers clashed with Mzilikazi, but the infamous Zulu chief was later defeated and fled north. The Dutch, German and French settlers who established themselves as Afrikaners, and many of whom established themselves as farmers, or 'Boers', attempted to establish an independent republican government, but struggles with the invading British armies put paid to this.
The region's troubles were far from over. The Afrikaners clashed further with local indigenous peoples and then took up arms against the British in the South African War. This bloodiest of wars raged unabated for three years, ending on 31 May 1902 with the signing of the Treaty of Vereeniging, which placed the Orange Free State (and South African Republic) under British rule.
In 1910 the Orange Free State became a province within South Africa. It remained so until after the first democratic elections, when it was renamed the Free State.
There are numerous sites scattered around the province that tell the story of these skirmishes, including battle sites, blockhouses, cemeteries and monuments.
The history of the Free State also includes the discovery of gold, after which the province experienced a gold rush and mines sprang up overnight. Entire cities were planned around the rich gold deposits, which are today rated among the best in the world.

The "Madness of Mahler's Scores" – An Assessment
| Posted by LA Phil Staff in Los Angeles
"I love the music of Gustav Mahler. Very close to my photostudio, there is one of the homes of Gustav. It is at Auenbruggergasse 2, in Vienna's third district just across from the Belvedere castle. There he lived with Alma when he was the director of the Vienna Opera.
I am passing by almost every day on my way to my studio, looking up to his apartment and being thankful for all the great music he gave us. I went to see Gustavo Dudamel's Mahler 9 with the LA Phil at the Musikverein last year - one of the best moments in my life!
Wishing you all the best for your Mahler Project and all the concerts in LA and Venezuela. Many greetings from Vienna!"

Print Ariat International has been providing boots since 1993. Co-founders Beth Cross and Pam Parker both realized in 1990, that many traditional English and Western riding boots were not suitable for equestrian riding. With their expertise and with a footwear background, they realized there was a need for improved riding boots for men, women and kids. Using their knowledge in athletic footwear, they began making performance enhancing changes to their riding boots, giving these athletes an edge. Ariat Boots quickly became known as the most innovative and performance riding boots. They provide the same technology in men's riding boots, women's riding boots and kids riding boots. They totally redesigned the traditional outsole, arch support and last shape and took Ariat Boots to the next level in riding boot technology. While building the technology into these western riding boots, Ariat had hundreds of top riders help design and develop their final product. Today Ariat is the world leader in performance equestrian footwear as well as offering the most stylish western boots on the market. Ariat Boots offers a wide range of products from English and Western riding boots, work boots and casual boots. Their forward thinking and performance lines outfit today's most avid equestrian riders and enthusiasts.

SEC's Top 25 players: No. 7 Jake Matthews
Published: Friday, July 19, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 18, 2013 at 11:11 p.m.
Gatorsports.com counts down this season's standout players in the nation's toughest conference.
No. 7 Jake Matthews
Position:Offensive tackle
School: Texas A&M
Height: 6-foot-5
Weight: 305 pounds
Year: Junior
Why he's No. 7: Matthews led an offensive line that allowed just nine sacks in 13 games in 2012. With Matthews protecting quarterback Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M set school records for total offense (490.2 yards per game), passing offense (291.1 yards per game) and points scored (39.1 points per game). A two-year starter with 20 career starts. Matthews is considered by most NFL scouts a terrific run blocker with room to grow in pass protection. He is the son of NFL Hall of Fame offensive lineman Bruce Matthews, and figures to follow in his dad's footsteps when his college career ends.

This may be a very unpopular answer but honestly I use all our real names. I've had several online businesses where I sold things & my name and address have always been out there online for the past 8 years or so. Why should someone trust me enough to send me money for an order if I'm not willing to reveal who I am and where they can find me? I certainly wouldn't buy a Coach bag (as an example) from some non-named store front or guy on the street. I want to know it's authentic and there's not a crook behind it so I'd buy it from a store that had a name, phone number and address.
This also holds true for sponsors looking at my site. I want them to know who I am so they can trust me. I do use my kid's real first names on my blog. They're teens and very well versed in online safety. I also use their pictures & my & my husband's pictures. Companies like to see their products being used by real people and I think it's easier to connect with someone named Mary versus Little M or Big B.
I seriously think that people are more in danger from local wackos or predators than they are by posting their real name in a blog post about denture cream.
YES! Exactly what Ellen said. Not only have I been blogging (or "online journaling") since the age of 14, I am also a well known professional photographer in my area. I freely share my full name (including my middle name, since my photography company includes both my first and middle name, Karen Lisa Artistic Photography), plus my husband and son's name.
What I DO NOT do is share the name of my son's pre school, our home address (though it's VERY easily found by doing a whois on any of our 37 domain names that we own.... whatever), or where I'm going to be when. That means I don't typically write about being on vacation until I'm back... stuff like that.
I also don't share information about my son that I would be embarrassed for the public to know if it were about myself. While we do have a fairly public life online, I won't be writing any revealing potty training stories or discussing times when my son threw a tantrum in the middle of Target because I wouldn't buy a Thomas train, for example. I keep my blog pretty positive, because while I love sharing photos and stories, if he runs for president one day, he doesn't need people talking about how his mommy wrote about a blog about that time when he was a bad boy in the grocery store.
Also, when you call your kid some ridiculous nickname online it makes it 10x as hard for me to read your blog because I just can't relate to someone named Little Prince vs. Billy.
I use only their initials which are AB, C, D :D But I use my real name....for business purposes/online portfolio.
As pointed out, if you're blogging to update family and friends they already know your kids' names so you don't have to put it all in...their birthdays and so on.
We can all be proud moms to our cute kids, I guess this is why we tend to post about them a lot but keeping their privacy (photos not included?) will benefit both us and them...
I just did a quick search via google of my kids' names and the only results were from a listing of magazine photo winners...try that or use www.tineye.com to check if somebody is using your kids' photos.
I would just prefer no one to really know my kids names. I know some people won't show their kids faces or spouse, and sometimes even themselves. I think it's more about a higher sense of safety. People out in the world are so crazy these days you never know what someone might do if they stumble upon information and decide to use it one way or another that you hadn't planned on. For me it's a level of security.
The nicknames I use for my kids are ones I use in real life, so it's super easy for me. My kids have had nicknames since birth, pretty much. It's almost their real names since I probably say them more than their birth names. LOL
In todays world where predators can trace your iphone pix to YOUR ACTUAL house where your took them (HORRORS), the last thng you want is to give them your childs name too.
Thus, I;ve always used nicknames for my daughter on my blog, ones that I do NOT call her in real life, therefore she will NOT respond to them if some stranger calls her them.
I learned it in an internet safety class BeFORE I started blogging, talking about gaming/chat rooms/etc, and it just made sense to keep the same sense of privacy. Another reason why I place a copyright on photos that show my daughters face. Other bloggers have had their childrens pictures used in overseas clothing catalogues WITHOUT their knowledge. You just have to be more safe today when online when it comes to your kids
@ Nicole, I also copyright on my kids photos
I change everyone's names on my blog, including myself. I've been stalked before, including being cyberstalked, and it wasn't fun having to hide from the world just to protect myself and my children. I haven't done any research on whether or not online predators are as high as some of us think it is, but why chance it? A predator can be as close as a family member or as far as some pervert seeking for victims online across the world.
I blog because it's fun and because it gives me a sense of freedom and escape. But I want to be able to enjoy it as safely as I can. I've learned the hard way that just because I post only certain things on facebook and only certain things on a blog, then only certain things on discussion forums, that someone who is targeting won't just search for me on one site. He pieced multiple sources of information together to discover when and where I moved into a new home, when I took my kids and dog for a walk, the names of my pets and things about my kids only a family member would know. I know my case is an extreme and not everyone will be a victim of it, but just because it doesn't happen to you now doesn't mean it can't ever happen.
I don't live paranoid, but I do choose to expose my family online in a safer way. No real names, no addresses, etc. Just being precautious. I don't sell anything or own a business online so I don't feel there is a need for others to know exactly who we are. After all, lots of innocent readers are just looking to read and enjoy the stories we tell. Unless I want to become friends with someone by reading their blog, I am not interested in their real names. My family and friends read my blog but they don't follow and they don't link my blog anywhere.
Again, I know that victims of stalking are not high in population in comparison to the rest of the world but we are proof that it happens and can happen to anyone.

A TALENTED young theatre student has spoken of her excitement at starring alongside Hollywood star Angelina Jolie in the new Disney film Maleficent, released today (May 30).
Isobelle Molloy, 13, from Springfield, was handpicked by Jolie for the role of the young Maleficent, portraying Jolie's character in her younger days.
Theatre-goers and soap fans may recognise Isobelle already. She recently played the role of Bella Young in EastEnders, and has previously played the lead role in Matilda in the West End.
Isobelle had the privilege of travelling to Hollywood for the film, which tells the story of the Disney classic Sleeping Beauty from the point of view of its villain.
Isobelle said: "To be in a film with Angelina Jolie was absolutely incredible and a little bit surreal at the same time.
"I felt very privileged to be given such an amazing opportunity.
I was shell shocked when I found out I had been given the role, but also couldn't wait to get started."
Isobelle said being on set with a cast including Elle Fanning and Miranda Richardson was an amazing experience.
She added: "I only met Angelina briefly. She was fantastic and very helpful with tips on how she saw the young Maleficent."
Isobelle trains at Chelmsford theatre school Tomorrow's Talent.
Principal Gavin Wilkinson said the young acting star had her feet firmly on the ground.
He said: "We are so proud of Isobelle and her achievements in such a competitive industry.
"She remains a very levelheaded young lady who simply strives to be the best that she can be as an actress.
"Isobelle is testament to the wealth of talented young people that we have in the local area with many of our students performing leading roles both on stage and screen."

Not sure why I always remember this day.
July 15, 1994. That was the shocking day that Mike Keenan, on a Toronto TV station, announced he was leaving the Rangers because of a breach in his contract. The Rangers were late with a bonus check, so Keenan, a month and a day after winning the Stanley Cup, was bolting.
The Garden, of course, was furious. Though some of it was fake as it came out later that Keenan and Neil Smith — who had battled all year long and who probably couldn't have lasted another week together, much less than another season — had cooked up the whole missed-check scenario so Keenan could leave.
And Keenan, who had been negotiating with Detroit throughout the Stanley Cup run, ultimately went to St. Louis … and the NHL handed out punishment that included the compensation trade of Esa Tikkanan for Petr Nedved (a pair of No. 10s swapping uniforms).
What a crazy chapter in franchise history.

I am reading a lot on the internet since I became pregnant. I came across articles saying eating pineapple is actually not good because it causes early labor. Is this really true? I love pineapple because it helps relieve my constipation.

Hi CharmedLiza05,
Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your pregnancy!
Thank you for your interesting question. The reason you've been hearing about pineapple is because it contains something called Bromelain which, in large quantities can help soften the cervix and so induce labour. However, my antenatal teacher told me that a woman would have to eat at least 7 fresh pineapples to gain enough Bromelain which would cause her to have diarrhoea and also soften the cervix.
Eating a normal amount of fresh pineapple in pregnancy should not be harmful and contains lots of vitamin C to help your developing baby.
However, I am caution over your comment that the pineapple helps to relieve your constipation. You would not want to eat so much pineapple that it gave you diarrhoea in pregnancy. How much pineapple do you eat? Is it fresh pineapple/ fresh pineapple juice - only these contain the Bromelain. Also, what stage in your pregnancy are you?
The other time pineapple is often avoided in pregnancy is by women suffering from gestation diabetes due to the natural sugar levels in the pineapple.
I hope this has helped to answer your question. Please do post back and let us know your thoughts on this.
Best wishes,
Thank you so much LJ! I'll surely keep that in mind. I'm just 23 weeks on my pregnancy and I typically eat 1-3 slices of fresh pineapple everyday and I think I'm getting enough fiber from this. Thanks again!
Pineapple has lots of health benefits. No research evidence I have seen says you shouldn't eat pineapple in pregnancy.
Like all things, it is important to not take internet advice at face value. As LJ suggests, we know that pineapple contains Bromelain but unless you plan on eating 7 pineapples a day there is no proven risk.
What happens is someone makes the scant connection and without doing their research posts warnings on the internet. However a little research shows there is no proven risk when consuming pineapple in normal serving sizes!
Similarly some of the B-group vitamins, while essential to normal body functioning, can be dangerous if taken in very high doses. Take a recommended daily supplement as recommended and its not a problem. The key here is that anything you put into your body during pregnancy should be done so in line with recommendations.
Eat pineapple if you like it provided your health professional has not deterred you from doing so for dietary reasons (such as having gestational diabetes as LJ mentioned)!
I'm pregnant and I eat pineapples. I like it.
Congratulations on your pregnancy austinkmadison! How many weeks pregnant are you?
It sounds like you are getting lots of vitamin C from those pineapples!
Best wishes,
Eating any fruit in a moderate doesn't cause any harm. you can eat one cup of pineapple in a week. Of course, you should always talk to your doctor before adding anything to your pregnancy diet. This article explains the benefits and risks of eating pineapple during pregnancy http://www.momjunction.com/articles/safe-eat-pineapple-pregnancy_002951/
It is safe to eat pine apple. No evidence has found for this. Don't believe on this kind of unscientific stories. You can eat pineapple during pregnancy. The logic behind the myth is that bromelain breaks down proteins and since your newly conceived baby is made up of proteins, consuming bromelain can cause bleeding and miscarriage. Eating 1 cup of fresh fruit in a week is usually safe.

As a fan of both college football and BBQ, I can attest that the Holy Grail is in Knoxville, Tennessee. Located next to Neyland Stadium at the University of Tennessee, sits Calhoun's On The River. Located at the confluence of the stadium, the Tennessee River, Neyland Drive, a railroad crossing and a basketball arena, Calhoun's is THE hotspot for all Volunteer games. You can sit on the deck before the football games and watch the Volunteer Navy proudly come down the river before mooring their vessels at Calhoun's dock.
However, the ambience is only half of the package as the BBQ ribs, BBQ pork, chicken Calhoun, baked beans and southern fried catfish will knock your socks off.
I flew from Iowa to see a football game and eat at Calhoun's. Tennessee won the national title that year but the team didn't quite measure up to the ambience and BBQ at Calhoun's On The River:

For as long as he's been alive, my son
has preferred my husband. I get it. He and I see each other all day and
as such, have ample opportunities to get sick of one another. Mommy is
always ruining his life by not letting him do awesome stuff like
coloring on his face with black marker or cutting up his clothes with
the kitchen shears. Daddy is fun! He turns the living room into a
wrestling arena and can accurately draw all the characters from Shrek on
the Magna Doodle. It's not a competition, but I have to admit I'm a
little envious of the overjoyed, beaming child that flies into my
husband's arms when he gets home from work.
My mother gently
reminded me, early on, when my feelings would get hurt, "Mothers get the
short end of the stick." I guess we figure we can heap as much abuse on
them as we want and they'll still love us. Hearing my child say he
didn't like me was a slap in the face. I wanted to run down the stairs
and yell, "I carried you for nine months! I put my life on hold for you!
I've sacrificed my body, time with my husband, and countless hours of
sleep for you! I would gouge someone's eyes out if they ever tried to
hurt you and you don't like me?!" But, of course, you can't say that to a
three year-old. Of all the things you can't make your children
understand, unconditional love may be the most maddening.
is more obnoxious than when some self-righteous uber mom smarms at you,
"You won't understand until you have children," but, in this case, Uber
Mom is right. It's not an insult. It's simply a fact. I remember being
at the mall with my mom when I was a kid and hearing a security guard
yell, "Stop or I'll shoot" at a thief as they both went tearing by. With
no hesitation whatsoever, my mother flattened me against the wall of a
shoe store, human shield-style. Even as an eight year-old, I was
floored. That kind of love is indescribable and is only able to be
repaid by experiencing it with your own child. They will puke in your
hair at the grocery store and you will clean them up first. They will
scream that they hate you because they don't want to put their shoes on
and you will not sell them to pirates. That is love. Happy Mother's Day,
Mom. I get it now.

'Warm Bodies' Clips Prove There's Really No Need to Go See the Movie
Summit Entertainment must not want you to spend the money to go see 'Warm Bodies' in theaters, which is both admirable and confusing. Why spend all this money on advertising when you're just gonna show most of the film's footage online? And on that note, we've got six new clips from the Jonathan Levine-directed 'Warm Bodies.'
Nicholas Hoult stars as a love-struck zombie who's infatuated with a human girl, played by Teresa Palmer, and it's this love that is slowly transforming him back into his human state. Unfortunately, Palmer's dad in 'Warm Bodies' is spearheading a military effort to rid the world of the walking dead. Also, there's appearances by James Franco's lil' bro Dave and former 'America's Next Top Model' contestant turned actress Analeigh Tipton.
These newly released clips from 'Warm Bodies' provide expanded looks at certain scenes teased throughout the trailers — running away from zombies, pretending to be zombies, Palmer arguing with her dad, Tipton giving Hoult the 20-questions treatment, etc. If you'll remember, these were released after the fact we got to see the first four minutes of the flick, so all in all there's really no need to spend the money in theaters when we've already seen the major scenes.
Watch the new footage from 'Warm Bodies' below, and if you still want to see it in theaters, check out the film when it hits on February 1.
UPDATE: Another clip has hit, this time from Yahoo Movies. Check it out:
And in case you missed it the first time, here's the first four minutes of 'Warm Bodies':

Gators outplayed by Tigers
Published: Saturday, October 12, 2013 at 9:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, October 12, 2013 at 9:45 p.m.
BATON ROUGE, La. — The talk all week leading up to Saturday's game between Florida and LSU centered around future NFL wide receivers going against future NFL defensive backs and the possibility that this could turn into an offensive shootout in Death Valley.
Three things
1. In only his third career start, quarterback Tyler Murphy was sacked four times and had little or no time to find his receivers. He completed only 15 of 27 passes for 115 yards.
2. The UF defense limited the potent Tigers to only 17 points, but gave up some big plays in the passing game and got gutted in the running game, giving up 121 rushing yards to Jeremy Hill.
3. Florida's only points came from walk-on kicker Francisco Velez, who learned just before kickoff that he'd won the starting job. He made field goals of 44 and 27 yards to keep the Gators in the hunt.
— Robbie Andreu
Lost in all the hype about lots of potential points and big plays was one simple truth: The SEC is still a line-of-scrimmage league, something Will Muschamp has been stressing since his arrival at Florida three years ago.
That's the best explanation for the No. 17 Gators' 17-6 loss to No. 10 LSU on Saturday before a Tiger Stadium crowd of 92,980.
They lost both lines of scrimmage — and therefore lost the game.
"It was a line-of-scrimmage game," senior offensive guard Jon Halapio said. "We knew that coming into the game. It was all on the offensive line and the defensive line. We just got outworked and outplayed.
"We've got to do a better job preparing for stuff like this."
This is a game and an outcome that is easy to break down.
The Gators could not protect their quarterback (Tyler Murphy), could not consistently run the football and could not stop the run.
The Tigers protected their quarterback (Zach Mettenberger), cleared the way for their tailback (Jeremy Hill) to rush for 121 yards and stuffed the Florida run for most of the day.
"Our guys fought hard, but we didn't win enough on the line of scrimmage," Muschamp said. "We still have everything sitting in front of us as far as the SEC East is concerned. That's what we need to look forward to.
"I'm disappointed we didn't get the win. Just disappointed we didn't play the run better defensively and be more productive running the ball overall."
The Gators (4-2 overall and 3-1 in SEC), who lost starting tailback Matt Jones to a knee injury in the first half, were outgained on the ground 175 yards to 111.
UF's passing game was even less effective.
Murphy rarely had enough time to make anything positive happen in the passing game. He was sacked four times, pressured almost every time he dropped into the pocket and managed to complete just 15 of 27 passes for only 115 yards.
UF's only points came on field goals of 44 and 27 yards by walk-on kicker Francisco Velez, who learned just before kickoff Saturday that he'd be starting ahead of the struggling Austin Hardin.
"They did a good job of applying pressure to us," Murphy said. "I didn't do a good job of getting rid of the ball quick enough. That's something I am really going to have to evaluate and get better at. Teams are going to do that all season, and I want to be successful.
"If you want to be successful on offense, that's something you are going to have to overcome. Things don't get easier from here on out. We've got to get better. I've got to continue working on getting better."
As poorly as the offense played, the Gators had a chance in the fourth quarter after driving to the LSU 20 with more than five minutes to play. But on consecutive plays, Murphy was pressured into two straight incompletions, UF was penalized for a false start, and Murphy was then sacked on back-to-back plays, the second coming on a fourth-and-27 from the LSU 37.
LSU (6-1 and 3-1) ran out the game's final 3:51.
"We moved the ball, but gave up too many negative plays that were difficult to overcome," Muschamp said. "It's a big concern as we move forward.
"We've got to give (Murphy) more time. I need to look at the film, but my initial thought is too much pressure. We've got to protect him better. We had several plays we thought we could hit (but didn't have enough time). It's disappointing."
The Florida defense played very well at times and did a solid overall job by holding the potent LSU offense to only 17 points, their low (by far) on the season.
But the Gators got gashed by Hill in the running game, gave up some big plays in the passing game and had two third-down stops nullified by pass interference penalties.
One of the biggest letdowns by the defense was giving up a 22-yard completion on a third-and-17 play from the UF 47 that led to LSU's second touchdown and gave the Tigers a 14-3 lead with 5:14 left in the first half.
"We didn't hold them enough, that's the bottom line," linebacker Michael Taylor said. "There were a lot of third-down situations. Sometimes we stopped them, sometimes we didn't, so we have to be better on third down.
"We went into the game knowing we needed to get pressure on (Mettenberger). He had a lot of time to throw sometimes. It was just something we will have to go back and watch and see what went wrong."
Not much went wrong for the Tigers, who won both lines of scrimmage and as a result were pretty much in command for most of the game.
"We can win all types of games," Hill said. "We can win shootouts, we can win tough, physical running games. That's what kind of game it was today.
"Each team's running game had to be successful for them to win the game. Ours was a little more successful, and that's why we won the game."

Mouth Diseases
Bumps on Tongue
I have noticed many bumps far back on my tongue that I can only feel when I put my finger deep down I can only see two one on each side on the back they have been there a few wks or more. I also get bleeding when I brush but experience no pain. Only thing is I had been using meth for about a month and thought that might be the cause but I quit using and the bumps are still there. I also am a heavy smoker 30 yrs of age.
Bumps that are lined up across the very back part of your tongue and are about the same size probably represent what are known as circumvalate papillae. Most people have about 6 to 8 of these normal structures that form a V that points to the back of the throat, but often they are not noticed because they are so far back. Usually these structures can't be seen unless a person sticks their tongue out really far, and they may not be noticed until later in life when a person might have a sore throat, stick their tongue out, and look at it in a mirror with good lighting.The painless bleeding from brushing may be a sign of gum disease (either gingivitis or periodontitis). You should see your dentist to determine whether or not professional care may be needed to get your gums back to health.

In a comment on my post Does Reading Really Matter?, bowerbird challenged me to name names on who's arguing the position that "the end of literacy is nigh, and that's OK".
Well William Crossman for one is practically exuberant about post-literacy:
By 2020, electronically-developed countries will be well on their way to becoming oral cultures… Reading, writing, spelling, alphabets, pictographic written languages, written grammar rules, and all other written notational systems will be rapidly exiting the scene
Crossman's carrying the torch for speech-recognition; another group of techno-enthusiasts who are down with post-literacy are found among those who are pushing to institutionalize the concept of multimedia literacy. Straight from Wikipedia:
The concept of Literacy emerged as a measure of the ability to read and write. In modern context, the word means reading and writing at a level adequate for written communication. A more fundamental meaning is now needed to cope with the numerous media in use, perhaps meaning a level that enables one to successfully function at certain levels of a society.
Some related skepticism about the written word iis found in constructivist learning theory . The increasinlgy trendy Waldorf education philoosphy delays teaching reading until 3rd grade or later. On a broader plane, the debate about the relative merits of the spoken and written word is as old as Socrates and Plato.
Personally, I envision the future of content as a cornucopia of entertainment and learning options. Multimedia training beats "read the instruction manual" nearly every time. I also see merit in the experiential Waldorf model. Certainly speech recognition will drastically reshape our interactions with computers and devices, as digital photography, podcasting, VOIP, Second Life, and YouTube are already transforming how we communicate and interact over distances with each other. But I still believe that in the future mix, the written word will have continued centrality. Symbolic text is by far the most effective means of recording and transmitting complex ideas and information that humans have come up with. Indeed the most powerful aspect of "Publishing 2.0", in terms of delivering incremental value, may be to give text – liberated from paper – the ability to freely combine with other forms of media and interactivity. The traditional schoolbook may ultimately evolve into an entirely new kind of Illustrated Primer – but I still believe it will have words at its core, and that traditional publishers will have a path from the present to this future that leverages the value of their words, and the continued importance of reading and literacy to an informed and empowered citizenry.

CLERMONT, Fla. – The Saint Leo softball team collected two more wins Tuesday night from the National Training Center's Spring Games in Clermont, Fla. The night featured a five-inning 12-1 win over the Georgian Court Lions just before the Lions took a five-inning 8-0 game over the University of the Sciences Devils.
Junior Sarah Steiner got the start for Saint Leo in the first game of the night, tossing four innings before sophomore Ashley Ehlers came in for relief. Both Steiner and Ehlers combined for six strikeouts on the evening, allowing just four walks and two hits in five innings pitched.
The first game began slowly for the Saint Leo Lions, who only sent four batters to the plate in the top of the first inning against the Georgian Court Lions. In the top of the second inning, however, Saint Leo scored five runs to get the ball rolling. The inning began with a walk to pitcher Sarah Steiner, who was immediately pinch-run for by freshman Tiffany Thompson. One out later, Thompson stole second base, and after a second out, Thompson advanced to third base on a passed ball. With a runner on third and two outs, junior Kylee Hardesty stepped up to the plate and blasted a single up the middle to score Thompson for Saint Leo's first run. From there on out, Saint Leo continued to pound the home team, forcing three Georgian Court errors and collected four more unearned runs for the inning.
With the Georgian Court Lions unable to score in the bottom of the second, Saint Leo tacked on another run in the top of the third inning when Hardesty sent a groundball deep into the infield to score junior Chelsey Steedley from third base.
The Saint Leo Lions did not scoring after six runs, however, as they added six more runs to their collected in the top of the fourth inning. Freshman Jessica LoBianco jumpstarted the offensive attack to lead off the inning by forcing a fielding error from the Georgian Court third baseman to reach first base safely. LoBianco then took second base on a wild pitch, and after sophomore McKenzie Burns reached on an infield single, LoBianco was safely on third base. Faced with the possibility of another run scoring, the Georgian Court catcher threw down to third base on the next pitch in an attempt to pickoff LoBianco, but the throw went wide, allowing LoBianco to score and Burns to reach third base. An RBI sacrifice fly from freshman Stephanie Bagwell then allowed Burns to score, just before senior Rachelle Gremo walked to give Saint Leo yet another base runner. On the next play, Steiner singled through the left side, forcing Gremo into scoring position. After a Georgian Court pitching change, Saint Leo's Steedley then sent a single up the middle, which scored Gremo and moved Steiner up one base. The next play, a fielder's choice to shortstop for sophomore Kelsey LaNeave, kept two Saint Leo runners on base, although Steiner was tagged out at third base for Georgian Court's second out of the inning. With two runners on and a full count, Hardesty then tagged a three-run homerun over the left-centerfield fence to put Saint Leo ahead, 12-0.
Georgian Court was able to answer back, however, when they scored one earned run in the bottom of the fourth inning. Briana Molino led off the inning for the home team, sending a double to right-center field for Georgian Court's first hit of the game. Taylor McDonough then flied out to right field, advancing Molino to third base. Two batters later, Emma Erbig singled to right field to give the Georgian Court Lions their only run of the contest and allowed Saint Leo to take the game with the eight-run rule.
Freshman Alana Tabel took the mound for the Saint Leo Lions in the second game of the night against the University of Sciences Devils, throwing six innings and striking out ten. Allowing only one walk and three hits, the win signaled Tabel's seventh win donning the green and gold.
The second game of the evening began much like the first, as the Lions were again slow to score. The first runs came in the bottom of the third inning, when Steiner led off with a one-out walk to give the Lions a base runner. With freshman Brittany Martinez pinch-running for Steiner, Steedley then singled through the left side to advance Martinez and take first base. On the next play, LaNeave reached on a fielder's choice to second base while Steedley took second base safely from a Devils' error and Martinez scored. Hardesty then singled to centerfield, forcing another Devils error and scoring Steedley. One batter later, the Torrie Weindorf reached on a fielder's choice to the pitcher, and LaNeave slid safely into home before any outs were made.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, the Lions tacked on two more runs thanks to three Devils' errors and a single by Saint Leo's Hardesty. With the Devils unable to score any runs through their five offensive innings, the Lions ended the game in the bottom of the fifth by tacking on six more runs and ending the game with the eight-run rule. In addition to one Devils error, the Lions collected four hits, four RBIs and seven base-runners in the bottom of the fifth alone.
In addition to an astounding 18 hits, the Lions collected seven stolen bases while walking five on the night. The Lions pitching staff, highlighted by stellar performances from junior Sarah Steiner, sophomore Ashley Ehlers, and freshman Alana Tabel, combined for sixteen strikeouts and just five walks, while allowing only five hits. Junior Kylee Hardesty highlighted the night with a grand total of nine RBI's.
The Lions will return to action on Friday, Mar. 8, when they take on the University of Tampa in Sunshine State Conference action at home from University Stadium. First pitch is slated for 7:00 p.m.

Did you know?
Santos Beach is named after a German schooner, the 'Santos' that sank off its shores.
Santos, one of South Africa's Blue Flag beaches, is located at the heart of the southern Cape town of Mossel Bay. Santos Beach is wide and sandy, with brilliant ocean views and easy access to the town's shops, restaurants and many historic sites.
This beach earned its prestigious Blue Flag status for its strict control of water quality, efforts at environmental education, sound environmental management and safety record.
As well as being a popular swimming beach, with sea temperatures that are a comfortable 20 to 22 degrees Celsius during the summer months and 13 to 14 degrees Celsius in winter, the beach has lifeguards on duty between November and January.
Santos Beach is also a favourite launch site for paddle skis and a range of other water spots, including surfing, boating, diving and angling. The rocky outcrops along the beach are home to rock pools full of interesting sea creatures, as well as oyster beds.
Santos Beach also forms part of South Africa's Whale Route, with southern right whales sheltering in the bay between May and October. The whales are often clearly visible from the beach, along with dolphins and even seals.
Mossel Bay itself, just a stone's throw from the beach, is known as the historical capital of the Garden Route. It was here that some of the continents earliest inhabitants set their Stone-Age fish traps. It is also the spot where early European explorers, like Bartholomeu Dias, the Portuguese Navigator, first discovered the southern tip of Africa while searching for a spice route to the East.
The town of Mossel Bay is proud of its Blue Flag beach, which is one of 35 beaches in South Africa that have been awarded this sought-after status, adding to its reputation as one of South Africa's favorite holiday destinations.

Richmond International Raceway has always been known as a place for action, but Saturday night's Toyota Owner's 400 had many Cup Series drivers shaking their heads.
The first portion of the event belonged to Matt Kenseth and Clint Bowyer. The Toyota duo were the only drivers to hold the lead until Kyle Busch took it away on lap 254.
Busch was looking for a record-setting fifth straight victory at the Richmond facility and could have been on his way had it not been for a late crash that took him out of contention.
Busch's brother, Kurt Busch, also spent some time in the spotlight as he paced the field on several occasions. However, the crash bug bit him as well in the late stages when he and Tony Stewart had a disagreement that ended both drivers' chances to return to victory lane.
As the caution came out on lap 395, setting up a green-white-checkered finish, most teams debated whether to pit for tires or not. Harvick was one of those that did pit and the move proved to be the decision that won the race.
"Our car had been really good on restarts for four or five laps," said Harvick on the reason for making the decision to pit. "I could be really aggressive with it on the restarts."
It was that aggressiveness that allowed Harvick to move from his seventh place starting position to the lead in one lap on the restart.
"To be sitting there seventh on four tires," continued Harvick on his thoughts just before the restart, "I felt like if I could get by the row in front of me, then the guys on no tires were sitting ducks."
Clint Bowyer followed Harvick through the action on the restart and wound up with a second place finish.
"They started making holes up there in front of me," explained Bowyer on his adventurous restart. "The seas parted, and I just followed suit behind Harvick. It was a good run."
Both Harvick and Bowyer gave credit to the new Gen6 race car for the ability to make aggressive moves which got them through the traffic and into the top two positions.
"When you have enough downforce on the car, you can be ultra-aggressive with it," continued Bowyer. "Whoever designed this new car, we should kiss 'em every weekend. It's creating drama."
Judging from the action in Richmond, the drivers should be in store for a wild race next week in Talladega. Let's just hope that they gather back in the tempers from Saturday night before they get there.
