Augusta, GA--The Augusta GreenJackets (40-44) won their first game of the homestand against the Greenville Drive (37-48) in a spectacular performance on Friday night. An explosive offense produced 13 runs including a home run by right fielder Tyler Horan.
Tyler Horan helped the GreenJackets take the lead early when he hit a two run home run on a 0-1 pitch in the first inning. This marks Horan's tenth home run of the season. He continued to help the team with run support in the third inning when he doubled to left field.
The Greenville Drive answered the three run deficit in the fourth inning when they scored five runs. Tim Roberson began the scoring frenzy when he hit a solo home run on a 1-0 pitch to right field. Kendrick Perkins drove in two runs when he doubled to center field. A single by Kevin Mager drove in the final two runs of the inning. In the fifth inning, Carlos Asuaje helped extend the Greenville Drive's lead with a two run home run.
The GreenJackets offense exploded in the bottom of the fifth inning when they scored six runs. A wild pitch allowed Ryan Tuntland to plate the run. Tyler Horan drove in one run when he singled through the hole at second base. After Jeremy Sy was walked, Ryan Jones, singled through the hole at second base, driving in the team's third run of the inning. The final three runs were driven in by GreenJackets catcher, Ty Ross, when he doubled to right field.
Augusta scored their final four runs in the seventh inning. With the bases loaded, a sacrifice fly by recently acquired GreenJacket, Ryan Jones drove in the first run. The team plated two runs when Eric Sim singled to center field. Ryan Tuntland drove in the final run with a single to center field.
The Drive tried to attempted to rally in the ninth inning, however they only managed two runs. Carlos Asuaje drove in the first run on a sacrifice fly to right field. Immediately after Jake Romanski singled through the hole at second base to score the team's final run.
GreenJackets relief pitcher Carlos Alvarado (5-1) earned the win with four innings pitched and allowing four hits. Alvarado allowed one home run and struck out five. While Alvarado earned the win, the Drive's starting pitcher Jamie Callahan (2-8) took the loss. In four and one-third innings pitched, he gave up eight runs, one home run, issued three walks and struck out five batters.

Written on: 15/02/2014 by KarenLC89 (1 review written)
My partner ordered me an expensive bouquet of flowers and paid extra to make the bouquet more extravagant. The box was received in poor condition and I have bought better looking flowers from the supermarket. They have alleged the bouquet was the wrong bouquet sent however no where on their website can I find such a badly looking poor bouquet of flowers.
The customer service is below poor and you are made to make all correspondence via email you can only imagine how frustrating that is. Stay away and use your local florists. That way you know what you are purchasing.

The What Type of Villain Are You? Test
Your result for The What Type of Villain Are You? Test ...
The Vengeful
You scored 0 Sane, 0 Global, and 0 Content
They sure done you wrong! I'm not sure exactly what they did, but it must have been bad, because you are OUT FOR BLOOD. You have a list of people that need to die and you're checking it again and again, to make sure it keeps getting shorter. You take your time though when you need to, because being hasty might get you caught, and if you get caught, who's gonna kill all those people that need to die?
You understand perfectly that revenge is a dish best served cold, and are perfectly willing to lie under the radar for fifteen years, perfecting your gun shooting or martial arts skills while you wait for the right moment to strike.
You have no minions, you have no subjects, you have cut off all ties with your friends and family because revenge is what is important now. You've got enemies, maybe even a nemesis that doesn't know you are to be feared.
Try and socialize with some other compatible villains (like The Next-Door Assassin) though in the meantime: you are most likely to die by your own hand, apathetic and bored once you've achieved your revenge.

It's been 30 years since Sir Alfred Hitchcock died, and more than 50 years since his most famous film - Psycho. So while his name, reputation and image remain in the public consciousness, generations have grown up not knowing much more than that about him.
And if casual film fans don't know Hitchcock well, they certainly know even less about his wife, Alma Reville. His one-time boss, his editor, confidante and sounding board, Alma steps into the spotlight in the glamorous form of Dame Helen Mirren in Hitchcock, the new film about "Hitch" (Sir Anthony Hopkins) and the making of Psycho.
"She's not been forgotten by those who study Hitchcock intently," Mirren says. "But the general public never knew of her role in his work, his career. They didn't even know her enough to make her the 'forgotten heroine' of his career."
Stephen Rebello, in his book, Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, calls her "the exacting Mrs Hitchcock", the first person Alfred had to impress and please with any film idea, the sharp-eyed editor who spied Janet Leigh taking a "gulp" when she was supposed to be dead in the shower scene in Psycho.
"She worked side by side with him for his whole career," says screenwriter John J McLaughlin (Black Swan), who used Rebello's book as the basis for the Hitchcock script. "It's very common in this business to, if you have a spouse, you run your work or work you plan to do by them. You let them read the script before it goes out, you ask them questions as you're editing. You want their feedback."
Mirren, 67, who is married to a famous film-maker (Taylor Hackford) herself, knew "nothing of Alma's importance to his creative process. But it would be interesting, don't you think, to see what Hitchcock's movies would have been like without Alma. They might still have been wonderful, but certainly they wouldn't have been quite as tight and smart as they were".
McLaughlin can't recall ever "seeing this sort of creative relationship before" on the screen. But Mirren can.
"I played Sofia Tolstoy [in The Last Station] and even in that art form, where the novelist is a singular voice, you can see that he benefited from that editor, that consistent editing voice who keeps the artist on message. Sofia did that for Leo and was incredibly influential on his work. And again, she's been written out of history, like Alma."
McLaughlin built Alma's role up in the script for Hitchcock once the Oscar-winning star of The Queen was floated as a possible co-star, "because you've got to give someone of Helen Mirren's stature something interesting to play". Though the film takes liberties with Hitchcock's battle with the flu during the filming of Psycho, putting Alma on the set, directing in his stead, and invents a possible romantic dalliance of her own to match her husband's obsession with his blonde leading ladies, McLaughlin didn't have to invent much to put the director's "toughest audience" front and centre in the film. And the relationship he captures can't have been an easy one in real life.
"If I was a director, and I was constantly working with beautiful women, I think I know how my wife would respond," McLaughlin laughs. "But Alma let him do his thing, even if it was hard for her to be two steps back, out of the limelight, seeing this obsession of his. That's to her credit, and why she deserves credit, too."
A muse, Mirren says, "is a person outside who inspires you. But Alma was this hands-on partner in the work, an editor. Having done two films with women as the editors behind great men, I think that women, plainly, make very good editors - film editors and book editors. And since the success of a book or a film often comes down to judicial editing, that's another endorsement".
If Hitchcock sends people out to rent Psycho to try to recall what all the fuss was about with this ground-breaking/ censorship-shattering horror film, that's to be expected, McLaughlin says. And if Mirren's performance in it sends film buffs back to their Hitchcock libraries, maybe to reread this biography or that one, that's a good thing, too, Mirren adds.
"An awful lot of film critics ought to know a lot more about Alma, too, I think."
Hitchcock opens on Thursday.

Now why am I not shocked it the SPLC once again?
Kris Kobach is excellent.
Of course they didn't want him testifying,
he knows how well 287-G works. You go Kris!
#2 Apr 8, 2009
SPLC is as racist as it gets!
#3 Apr 8, 2009
Did they stop him ( Kris Kobach) from giving testimony? Does anyone know?
The SPLC calls anyone racist that will not agree to legalize all the Hispanic illegal aliens!
#4 Apr 8, 2009
This was posted by RKeefe, in another thread. It should be repeated here.
Southern Poverty Law Center FACTS
I know this smacks of "journalism" but did any of the four Sun-Sentinel writers who attached their names to this "report" actually go to the SPLC site and look at the evidence themselves?
If you actually go to the SPLC's
"Hate Map"
and look at the list of alleged "hate groups" for Florida, you'll see that the first 5 groups are not affilliated with any locale whatsoever. They simply float out there in limbo for the purposes of padding the numbers.
California is even worse with 14 of these "phantom groups", or 17% of its total and 12% of Texas' "hate groups" seem to be homeless as well. Of course, this is nothing compared to NM, ME and WY where 100% of their "hate groups" only exist in Mark Potok's mind.
But the SPLC takes in millions each year by promoting the fear campaign that "hate is on the rise" and so they bump the numbers up by 4 or 5 percent each year.
Eleven of Florida's "hate groups" belong to the League of the South, a Neo-Confederate group that you've never heard of because they've never done anything, illegal or otherwise. Seriously, people, do you really think the CSA are going to rise again?
Mark Potok is the PR man for the SPLC. He wrote 90% of this article and sent it, en masse, to thousands of newspapers around the world as a press release. You can read the original text of it here and see just how much hard hitting reporting the four Sun-Sentinel writers put into it.
Mr. Potok is now compensated more than $143,000 tax free, donor dollars a year to write stuff like this and to maintain his padded numbers and "Hate Map." His boss, multimillionaire Morris Dees receives more than $350,000 in compensation for his efforts in fighting hate. Mr. Dees saw fit to give himself a $20,000 raise last year, but hey, who hasn't done that themselves?
None of the top ten officers at the SPLC are minorities, unless you count the women. See pages 11 and 40 of the SPLC's most recent tax form and you can readily tell that they have a direct financial incentive in keeping the number of "hate groups", of which Mr. Dees is the sole arbiter, by the way, as high as possible to scare as many donors as possible
If a rank amateur like me can track down all of this documented information in a couple of hours, why can't alleged "reporters" at the Sun-Sentinel and the other newspapers do the same? This ain't rocket science.

Hey there:-) you ask me to start this thread & I did, it is in the forum now, please go and comment when you have a moment .
"Latinos Against Illegal Immigration!"
#6 Apr 8, 2009
No he testified! Hooray!!!!
#7 Apr 8, 2009
Very glad to hear it! Thanks for the update!
#8 Apr 8, 2009
Nothing about the SPLC surprises me anymore. Look at their hate list and not a single radical left-wing racist Hispanic group is on it. Biased source is an understatement.
#9 Apr 8, 2009
LMAO! Understatement is right! Did you see this series, "Indocrinate U"? It is not only happening on college campuses (what an eye opener!) Honey C posted a link.
This is what she posted "I watched this on the Documentary Channel not too long ago. While it doesn't directly focus on Chicano studies, it gives an overall view of censorship and the punishment of those who colleges perceive break the "rules". It's been broken down into 10 parts on YouTube. It's WELL worth the time."
Indoctrinate U (Part 1of10)
I found the same techniques are being employed in the forums. I think you will find it very interesting, should you have the time to watch.

I noticed that too, they also try to find any little thing on any group/person publicly against illegal immigration, although they call them anti-immigration to try to make them look bad. Yet they end up making themselves look like idiots. They never talk about anything relevant or factual. That BS about the media being responsible for an increase in hate crimes is an attempt to shut everyone up. If there even is an increase in hate crimes (no I don't approve of any violence or harassment) it could be linked to a number of things. For instance, illegals burning American flags, harassing people, and forming hate groups and claiming this is their land.
United States
#11 Apr 8, 2009
That is exactly what is going on, it's a very commonly used tactic everywhere. I actually don't get why anyone would be racist for thinking everyone should be treated equally. Why does anyone listen to these people?
#12 Apr 8, 2009
Yeah, the far left liberal SPLC never wants to do anything that is good for America!
#13 Apr 8, 2009
I have no idea what is in the mind of those that not only listen; but promote the agenda and follow the "talking points" by posting that we are racist/nazi/haters because we demand our laws be applied EQUALLY to everyone. Clearly they are clueless of the consequences.
#14 Apr 8, 2009
The SPLC put the American Legion on it's "Hate Group" watch.
The American Legion.
The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, war-time veterans organization, devoted to mutual helpfulness.
It is a not-for-profit community-service organization which now numbers nearly 3 million members, men and women, in nearly 15,000 American Legion posts worldwide.
By the time the SPLC is done, everyone in the United States who isn't an illegal alien will be on their "Hate List".
Anyone have any ideas about where the SPLC is getting their funding from these days?
My guess is the racist raza.
As far as I'm concerned, the Southern Poverty Law Center is now a "Hate Group" in America.
#15 Apr 8, 2009
Amnesty embedded in Dream act.
LaRaza on the assault!
Help now!
#16 Apr 8, 2009
I agree Cheyene the Southern Poverty Law Center is now a "HATE GROUP" in America.
RE: funding
try this
How the Southern Poverty Law Center profits from intolerance
Captain Jack may have their funding nailed down.
#17 Apr 8, 2009
Boy, the SPLC is definitely anti-American!
#18 Apr 8, 2009
Great info!
#19 Apr 9, 2009
Yes it is!
#20 Aug 18, 2009
the SPLC needs to fight against the abortion industry! Is there a kink between racism and the killing of unborn children? Let's all judge for ourselves by exploring the website of Life Dynamics Incorporated!!

Valley man accused of vehicle theft is back in jail
A man who authorities say confessed to stealing dozens of cars last year is now back in jail and accused of injuring an officer during a pursuit.
Jabberwocky: The Democratic Party features Hillary at a fundraising dinner and requires a 50,000 dollar donation to get a "private reception" with her. Isn't that like a Mafia organization taking bribe money but you must talk to their leader before they make the decisions? What's the difference? That is called racketeering. That is punishable by 20 years for each count. Rudy Guiliani, working as the head New York City prosecutor, put the head men of all 5 Mafia families in jail for life. They broke the racketeering laws. When Rudy says the Clinton Foundation is breaking the racketeering laws, he knows what he is talking about. Actually, it looks like even the political parties have broken the racketeering laws.

Agriculture in Thailand
The agriculture in Thailand is highly competitive, diversified and specialised and its exports are very successful internationally. Rice is the country's most important crop. Thailand is a major exporter in the world rice market. Rice exports in 2014 amounted to 1.3 percent of GDP.[1][1] Agricultural production as a whole accounted for an estimated nine percent of Thai GDP and 40 percent of the population works in agriculture-related jobs.[2]
Other agricultural commodities produced in significant amounts include fish and fishery products, tapioca, rubber, grain, and sugar. Exports of industrially processed foods such as canned tuna, pineapples, and frozen shrimp are on the rise.
Thai agriculture may be traced through historical, scientific, and social aspects which produced modern Thailand's unique approach to agriculture. Following the Neolithic Revolution, society in the area evolved from hunting and gathering, through phases of agro-cities, and into state-religious empires. Immigration of the Tai produced a distinct approach to sustainable agriculture compared with most other agricultural practices in the world.
From about 1000 CE, the Tai wet glutinous rice culture determined administrative structures in a pragmatic society that regularly produced a salable surplus. Continuing today, these systems consolidate the importance of rice agriculture to national security and economic well being. Chinese and European influence later benefited agribusiness and initiated the demand that would expand agriculture through population increase until accessible land was expended.
Recent developments in agriculture have meant that since the 1960s, unemployment has fallen from over 60 percent to under 10 percent in the early 2000s.[3] In the same period: food prices halved, hunger decreased (from 2.55 million households in 1988 to 418,000 in 2007) and child malnutrition have greatly reduced (from 17 percent in 1987 to seven percent in 2006).[3] This has been achieved (a) through a mixture of a strong and positive state role in ensuring investment in infrastructure, education and access to credit and (b) successful private initiatives in the agribusiness sector.[3] This has supported Thailand's transition to an industrialised economy.[3]
Agriculture in transition[edit]
Agriculture was able to expand during the 1960s and 1970s as it had access to new land and unemployed labour.[3] Between 1962 and 1983, the agricultural sector grew by 4.1 percent a year on average and in 1980 it employed over 70 percent of the working population.[3] Yet, the state perceived developments in the agricultural sector as necessary for industrialisation and exports were taxed in order to keep domestic prices low and raise revenue for state investment in other areas of the economy.[3]
As other sectors developed, labourers went in search of work in other sectors of the economy and agriculture was forced to become less labour-intensive and more industrialised.[3] Facilitated by state laws forcing banks to provide cheap credit to the agricultural sector and by providing its own credit through the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Co-operatives (BAAC).[3] The state further invested in education, irrigation, and rural roads.[3] The result was that agriculture continued to grow at 2.2 percent between 1983 and 2007, but also that agriculture now only provides half of rural jobs as farmers took advantage of the investment to diversify.[3]
As agriculture declined in relative financial importance in terms of income with rising industrialization and Westernisation of Thailand from the 1960s, but it continued to provide the benefits of employment and self-sufficiency, rural social support, and cultural custody. Technical and economic globalisation forces have continued to change agriculture to a food industry and thereby exposed smallholder farmers to such an extent the traditional environmental and human values have declined markedly in all but the poorer areas.
Agribusiness, both privately and government-owned, expanded from the 1960s and subsistence farmers were partly viewed as a past relic which agribusiness could modernise. However, intensive integrated production systems of subsistence farming continued to offer efficiencies that were not financial, including social benefits which have now caused agriculture to be treated as both a social and financial sector in planning, with increased recognition of environmental and cultural values. "Professional farmers" made up 19.5 percent of all farmers in 2004.[3]
Unique elements of Thai agriculture include irrigation technologies which spanned a millennium. It also had administrative structures which originated with agricultural water control. Thailand has global leadership in production and export of a number of agricultural commodities, and its agribusiness sector includes one of the world's largest multinational corporations. There still remains potential for further large increases in productivity from known technologies.
Thailand is a leader in producing and exporting rice, rubber, canned pineapple, and black tiger prawns. It leads the Asian region in exporting chicken meat and several other commodities, and feeding more the four times its own population. Thailand also seeks to expand its exports in livestock.
Thailand is unlikely to rapidly industrialise except in concert with the People's Republic of China, and will remain one of the world's major agricultural countries in social, environmental, and economic terms for the foreseeable future.
Thai dairy industry[edit]
Thailand has a raw milk production capacity of 2,800 tonnes a day, or just over one million tonnes per year (2015). Forty percent of production goes to a school milk programme and the rest to the commercial dairy sector. According to the Agriculture Ministry, Thailand is the largest producer and exporter of dairy products in ASEAN.[4]
Thailand's School Milk Programme was established in 1985, in response to farmers protests in 1984 on unsold milk. "The principle [sic] objective of the National School Milk Programme is to support the Thai dairy industry, by providing an outlet for locally produced milk....providing milk to the young at an early stage, will...[develop] a taste for milk and hence a market for the future." [5]
Thai rubber industry[edit]
Thailand ranks as the world's largest rubber producer and exporter, producing around 4.3 million tonnes per year,[6] while consuming only 519,000 tons.[2] But the rubber industry faces a series of challenges. Alongside drought conditions in 2015-2016, Thailand has been hit hard by an oversupply in international rubber markets. Following a record harvest in 2011, Thailand increased rubber acreage by 45 percent. Other top producers in the region followed suit. Concomitantly, China's demand for rubber decreased by 10 percent. China is the world's largest natural rubber consumer, using 4,150,000 tons in 2013. At one point the price of the world's benchmark smoked rubber sheet dropped as low as US$1.27 per kilogram, or 80 percent below the record high of US$6.40 per kg in February 2011.[6]
Similarly, rubber futures in Shanghai have dropped by 22 percent and the export price of Thai rubber by 23 percent.[2]
To aid the Thai rubber industry, the government is spending US$471 million to aid small-scale rubber farmers cultivating up to 15 rai (six acres) of trees. This limit is seen as artificially low by Thai rubber farmers, as up to 80 percent own as much as 25 rai (10 acres). Consequently, in 2016 many farmers are felling their rubber trees to use the land for other crops, with the government pledging an additional US$181 million to support alternative employment for rubber farmers.[2]
Effect of climate change on Thai agriculture[edit]
It is projected that temperatures will continue to rise at a steady rate in every region of Thailand within a range of 1.2-2° Celsius. Annual rainfall is projected to decrease in the central area, but increase in the northern and northeastern regions. Volume of rainfall is projected to be around 1,400 mm per annum over the next five years.[7]
Shaobing Peng of Huazhong Agriculture University in China believes climate change is now affecting the seasonal weather in Thailand. "Global mean surface air temperature has increased by 0.5 degree Celsius in the twentieth century and will continue to increase by 1.5 to 4.5 degrees Celsius this century," he said.[1]
Climate change will have varying effects on Thai crops. Heavy rain may damage the roots of cassava plants in the north, while a decrease in rain might damage cane sugar and rice in the central region. Temperature and quality changes of water might lead to a reduction in the viability of livestock due to heat stress, survival rates of newborn animals, and immune system impacts.[7] Climate change has and will continue to harm rice yields. A study by Okayama University in Japan found that grain yield declines when the average daily temperature exceeds 29 °C (84 °F), and grain quality continues to decline linearly as temperatures rise.[8]
Already, due to the drought of 2015-2016, rice production has declined 16 percent from 19.8 million tons to 16.5 million.[2]
To adapt to climate change, the Thai government has initiated plans to introduce drought-resistant seeds. But these seeds are not reusable and can be costly to poor farmers who are not receiving direct financial aid. Government-supplied seeds are also limited, forcing farmers to obtain their seeds from private suppliers. In 2015 60 million rai (960,000 hectares) of rice paddies remained unplanted due to shortages of water, causing many farmers to resort to secondary crops such as sugarcane, cucumber, long beans, and tilapia aquaculture to make sufficient income.[1]
Use of toxic pesticides[edit]
In July 2012 consumer action groups demanded that four unlisted toxic pesticides (banned in developed countries) found on common vegetables at levels 100 times EU guidelines be banned. Chemical companies are requesting to add them to the Thai Dangerous Substances Act so they can continue to be used, including on exported mangoes to developed countries which have banned their use.[9] In 2014, Khon Kaen University concluded after a study that Thailand should ban 155 types of pesticides, with 14 listed as urgent: Carbofuran, Methyl Bromide, Dichlorvos, Lambda-cyhalothrin, Methidathion-methyl, Omethoate, Zeta Cypermethrin, Endosulfan sulfate, Aldicarb, Azinphos-methyl, Chlorpyrifos-ethyl, Methoxychlor, and Paraquat.[10]

Not that long
Maybe a win for White.
probably last
well, black has other moves other than Kd3
I think 1. Bb5+ is better... No ?
If 1. ... Kd1, 2. Nf3+ wins. If 1. ... Kd2, 2. Nf3+ wins too. If 1. ... Ke3, 2. Nec2+ wins. And of course if 1. ... Qc4, 2. Bxc+ wins.
No, 1Bb5+ is worse as 1. ..., Kd1, 2. Nf3+, fxg1+, 3. Nxg1, Qe6+ winning a knight and at least getting a draw. Go back through the comments and you'll see.
I don't see how a queen plus a pawn vs. a knight and a bishop is a draw :-p
You missed a few comments here Srujan:
1......Kd1! leads to 2.Nf3+, fxg1=Q,+ and Black wins
Nice puzzle!
It is easy. But we end up with a stelemate even though white has the upper hand
But JSSC, with perfect play you can force mate with knight and bishop within 33 moves.
Well, in this case, if white manages to hold out after the line given above, there is no way for him to win the black queen and still have enough material to mate assuming black plays somewhat decently with his queen.
it couldnt be easier
no good

Apache OpenOffice - The IBM Edition?
If anyone had any real doubt, IBM is the one solid reason why OpenOffice still exits. Linux distros big and small have all left for the superior open source experience that is LibreOffice, yet IBM is stuck in the past.
In a blog posting announcing the end of Lotus Symphony, IBM explained that Open Office is the future (as it was the past too for them since Symphony was an openoffice fork)
"Our energy from here is going into the Apache OpenOffice project, and we expect to distribute an "IBM edition" of Apache OpenOffice in the future," Ed Brill, Director, Lotus Software, IBM Software Group blogged.

How Google Does Open Source
Marc Merlin has been working as an engineer at Google since 2002 and has seen (and done) a lot of open source and Linux work during that time. Speaking at the LinuxCon North America event this week, Merlin provided a standing room only audience with an overview how Google uses and contributes to open source. "Google wouldn't be around today without open source software," Merlin said.
High-end music player has a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian inside
Bryston has launched a high-end, compact "BDP-π" digital music player built on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian, plus a HifiBerry "Digi+" audio HAT add-on. Bryston's new Raspberry Pi-based BDP-π digital music player costs a hefty $1,295. Yet that's less than half the cost of the highly acclaimed Bryston BDP-2 player, while offering many of these same features and much of the same high-end sound quality. The BDP-π is faster and more capable than the BDP-1, says the company.

Ferraina Scores Tying Goal, Assists On Another, As Women's Soccer Ties Bucknell
Sept. 21, 2008
LEWISBURG, Pa. - Loyola College senior forward Theresa Ferraina scored the game-tying goal with just over 10 minutes left in regulation, and the Greyhounds tied host Bucknell, 2-2, in a non-conference match on Sunday afternoon.
The Bison (4-3-2) took a 2-0 lead in the first 33 minutes, but Loyola chipped away and controlled much of the second half and overtime.
"We took 17 shots (total in the match), and we kept going at them when we were down," Head Coach Katherine Vettori said. "Our defense had two breakdowns in the first half, but we got it back together, and we really took it to them."
Ferraina helped Loyola (0-5-2) start its comeback as part of a goal by Kristina Balfoort.
The Greyhounds took possession of a ball and made several passes before getting it to Ferraina. She served a pass into Balfoort near the six-yard box. She put a volley into the upper right corner of the box in the 39th minute to pull Loyola within a goal of the Bison (4-3-2).
"Bal's goal was brilliant," Vettori said. "We had a series of almost 10 passes in a row, and `T' gave her a great pass. `Bal' hit a perfect volley from about six yards out."
Bucknell outshot Loyola 7-6 in the first half, and 15-11 in regulation, but the Greyhounds started to control possession on its offensive half late in the game.
The strong play paid off in the 79th minute. Kelly Farrell took a ball on the right side and played it diagonally across the field to Lea Day who ran it down and beat her defender.
Day carried the ball to the endline, and she then crossed it to Ferraina who was posted at the corner of the six-yard box. Ferraina struck a low shot into the net to tie the match at 2-2.
From that point, Loyola had several offensive chances, and goalkeeper Amanda Piccirilli and the Greyhounds' defense kept the score tied.
Less than three minutes after Ferraina's game-tying goal, Christa Matlack hit a strong shot that was blocked and sent over the endline by a Greyhounds defender.
After the ensuing corner kick, Jennifer Dervarics put a shot on goal that was saved by Piccirilli.
Casey Crowley had a shot go wide for Bucknell in the 86th minute, and Loyola had the last shot of regulation. Brittany Henderson, playing in the first for the first time in her collegiate career, missed high with just over two minutes left.
In the first overtime, Day slid a shot wide, and Ferraina had one saved by Kathryn Sutton.
Matlack had a high shot fall harmlessly over the goal early in the second overtime one what would be Bucknell's final shot of the match. Loyola took four shots in the last eight minutes.
Christina Gomez put one wide, as did Ferraina. Henderson then had a header off a cross saved by Sutton.
Kelly Thomas' last shot, coming with under 10 seconds remaining, went just high.
Bucknell put the Greyhounds in an early hole on the scoring tandem of Matlack and Dervarics.
In the 22nd minute, Matlack took a pass from Dervarics on a give-and-go and scored the game's first goal. Dervarics gave the Bison a 2-0 advantage when she rebounded a saved shot by Matlack and scored in the 33rd minute.
Loyola continues non-conference play next Friday, September 26, at 4:30 p.m. when it hosts 19th-ranked Villanova on Diane Geppi-Aikens Field.
