Last season, Evans guard Jasmine Stone came into her own as a basketball player. She was chosen Columbia County Player of the Year.
She scored in 19.3 points per contest and nailed 56 three pointers. She also averaged 3.5 assists and 2.4 steals. When Evans standout Allysha McFarland, missed seven games in the middle of the season, Stone stepped up her play to an elite level.
Since the 2012-13 basketball season ended in March, the county's top two basketball players have transferred out of the area. This was supposed to be the year we saw Reggie Reid emerge as one of the premier guards in the South for the class of 2015. This was supposed to be the year Damian Foreman attempted to wrestle the county player of the year award away from Reid. Yes, this was to be an exciting year for basketball fans in the county. That is, until Reid and Foreman transferred out of the area.
On Wednesday, the Harlem High School softball team swept past Vidalia into the Georgia High School Association Class AA State Softball Tournament Elite 8 for the second straight season.
The two victories gave Harlem 12 consecutive wins, a stretch in which Harlem outscored its opponents 110-8.
Former Harlem offensive lineman Zach Piorkowski is the BMOC at LaGrange College. BMOC stands for Big Man on Campus – and at 6-5, 336 pounds, Piorkowski fits the bill.
Last weekend proved to be a great couple of days for Lakeside junior Rashad Roundtree. First, his Panthers beat perennial state power Thomson 23-14 on Friday night. Then, Roundtree spent Saturday in Athens watching The University of Georgia beat South Carolina 41-30.
Roundtree was in Athens as an invited guest of UGA defensive coordinator Todd Grantham. Grantham appears to be enamored with Roundtree and invited him up to Athens on an unofficial visit.
Mark Greubel is a former world champion kickboxer, he has built Greubel's MMA into a great local business, and he has been churning out world champion kickboxers at a staggering rate. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that he has been selected to be the head coach for USA Kickboxing. Last December, Greubel expanded his business by adding a second location inside Evans Fitness Club. He says the partnership has been great.
This time of year I am asked several times each day how a think [insert team here] will do this season. That is when I know football season is approaching. It is not that people simply want my opinion. They just want to talk football. It has become a year-round sport, and in the South college football is certainly king. I am a fan first, so I love talking about the upcoming season. For the last few years, I have taken time in one of my columns to tell you my thoughts on the quartet of FBS schools in our area. Luckily, we have some really good teams to root for this year.
Instead of focusing on the turmoil that has dominated recent sports discussions in the county, I decided to write about all the great achievements our kids racked up this spring. Usually, this time of year in Columbia County, when we are celebrating sports success it has do to with one of our baseball teams. Though Greenbrier made a tremendous run on the diamond, the county also boasted a wealth of talented soccer, tennis, golf, and track and field accomplishments.
Back in 2006, I wrote a column about a gentleman named Ed Amerson. Usually, my columns consist of stories about the exploits of high school or college athletes. However, that story was very different.
My objective was to try and convey to the readers just how important "Mr. Ed" was to Greenbrier High School. Back then I was very proud of the column. When I hit "send" on my keyboard to send the column, I was thoroughly satisfied with my effort. I realize now that I actually failed that day.
To say former Greenbrier High School standouts Ben Morgan and T.D. Davis were leaders for the Georgia Southern University baseball team this year would be an understatement. The talented duo led the Eagles in virtually every offensive category.

DALLAS – Mack Brown had been doused with water; his hair and white shirt still wet. Moments earlier, he had been down on the field, gathered with his Texas players to sing the "Eyes of Texas" and lift the Golden Hat, a trophy even he would admit he has not won often enough throughout his 16 years in Austin.
But here he was, standing in a quiet hallway at the Cotton Bowl, refusing to do what most of the men in his profession would have following a 36-20 victory against No. 10 Oklahoma.
BOX SCORE: Texas 36, No. 10 Oklahoma 20
A two-touchdown underdog, Texas hadn't just won the game but dominated the Sooners in every way possible, arguably one of the greatest and most unexpected performances in Brown's career. Under the circumstances, nobody would have blamed him for firing back at those who have called for his job and speculated about his replacement before the season was halfway through.
But Brown, who has remained one of the game's great gentlemen even as the critics have grown nastier, wasn't interested in handing out told-you-sos or shaking his fists in anger at those who have already buried him.
For one day, anyway, whatever the future holds for Brown came second to the very real possibility that Texas has a chance to win the Big 12 and complete one of the most stunning turnarounds college football has seen in a long time. A month ago, the Longhorns were beaten down, injured and seemingly out of answers. Now they are 3-0 in the Big 12 and striding into the second half of the season with the kind of confidence that can only come from such a thorough destruction of their biggest rivals.
"We got a chance to win the Big 12 and go to the BCS, we really do," Brown said. "We're not in the grave. We're crawling out. We're actually alive and have a chance here. We have to play well each week, but we have a chance and these kids are believing .You can see it."
It's impossible to say how this game, as brilliant as it was for Texas, fits into the script that so many had written for Brown. The athletics director who hired and supported him is still retiring at the end of this year. The university president, who also backs Brown, is still embroiled in a bitter feud with a group of insurgent trustees. And Texas, unless it wins the rest of its games, is still going to fight the perception that it has underachieved the last four seasons since losing the national championship game to Alabama in 2009.
The momentum for change may ultimately be too much to overcome, but perhaps the way this Texas team is viewed can still evolve.
There is no doubt the Longhorns (4-2) were a mess in September, and the ugliness of those losses to BYU and Ole Miss by a combined 40 points can't be erased. Texas was also very fortunate to beat Iowa State on Oct. 3, 31-30, scoring the winning touchdown after an apparent fumble was ruled down by contact.
On the other hand, Texas has steadily improved its defense since Brown decided to fire Manny Diaz as coordinator and bring in Greg Robinson after the BYU debacle. Maybe the change came too late, but what was painted as a panic move played a big role in beating Oklahoma (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) for the first time since 2009. The Sooners, who crushed Texas 63-21 and 55-17 the last two seasons, finished with just 263 total yards Saturday and went 2-of-13 on third down, largely because the Longhorns committed an extra linebacker to stopping the run and put quarterback Blake Bell in a lot of third-and-long situations.
"We were tired of getting run on. We had to stop the run," defensive end Jackson Jeffcoat said. "This game was important. We knew we needed to win. I knew there was a lot of negative outside, and I didn't want to hear it because we were so positive with each other. But we have to keep building. We're not done (getting better) because we beat Oklahoma."
Texas is also healthier now than it was in September. Though starting quarterback David Ash is still out due to a concussion and uncertain to come back, Mike Davis and Daje Johnson –playmakers the Longhorns counted on this season to make their offense work – were hurt against BYU and Ole Miss.
There are never any excuses at Texas, but it's not a coincidence Davis and Johnson had two of the game's biggest plays Saturday, with Johnson returning a punt 85 yards to put Texas in front 29-13 and Davis beating man-to-man coverage for a 38-yard touchdown catch with 10:07 remaining.
The Longhorns also pounded the middle of Oklahoma's defensive front for 255 rushing yards, a plan Brown said he conceived "three years ago" but couldn't pull off against the usually more physical Sooners. Once Texas got a 10-3 lead late in the first quarter on an interception return by defensive tackle Chris Whaley, the Longhorns stayed with the run and made the game easy for McCoy, who is more limited than Ash, but generally avoids big mistakes.
"This team has always known how good it could be, and we're starting to feed off each other," offensive coordinator Major Applewhite said. This is what I was wanting form our offensive line, being able to utilize tempo and get some play action shots to our outside receivers. That's what it's supposed to look like. I think if we get in a situation where we can throw it 22 times and run it 60 we're in great shape."
Texas now has the blueprint for how it needs to play, the confidence to know it can execute against a good team and a real shot to win the Big 12. And if it does, what then? For a coach who was considered all but gone, it might go down as one of the best coaching jobs of his career.
But craving credit is a young man's game, and Brown is no longer a young man. He's 62, and even after one of his best days in a long time, he wasn't going to worry about what it means or what comes next.
"I don't care, I really don't," Brown said. "I couldn't do it 10 years ago, but I'm older (now), and it really doesn't matter. I don't have anything to prove. I'm just trying to win."

Ummm.yeah. Best Product Ever :)My hair has been through sooo many "journies." In 7th or 8th grade, I had to cut my hair off due to extreme damage from my hair-dressers over-processing my hair (she would literally perm my hair every 2 weeks.) Hair came out. Went to a new hair-dresser, she cut all of my hair off to cheek-length (I was devastated). She was working with my hair up until senior year of high-school. Went to college, didn't know how to take care of it. Hair came out again. Cut all over again :(. It started to grow back. She cut it again! Three devastations ! But, she started to become jealous...so I had to just leave her alone. So I have been doing research on how to actually take care of my hair...tried Aphogee out, and its been wonderful. My hair is thicker (I have a thick grade of hair anyways), it's bouncier. Just great :)Sep 19, 2010Kay W.HAIR TYPEDark Brown / Dry Hair / Relaxed Hair

Hair Strands Everywhere Except Where They Should Be.....This product is AMAZING! My hair started breaking off about 2 weeks ago. It was all over my clothes and sink. I started to search for ways to repair it because I knew it was damaged. It was lifeless and wouldn't hold any curls. I came across this product and went right out and bought it. The smell isn't what we're use to because most hair products smell really good. However, once you get past the smell the results are OUTSTANDING. I had people tell me the next day that my hair looked different or that they could tell the difference. I could tell the difference as well, it had life again. It was shiny, holding curls, it had bounce and it was super soft. Love, love,love this line of products. I purchased the protein treatement, the balancing moisturizer, the damaged hair shampoo and the reconstructor. Thank you Aphogee!Sep 17, 2010Katrina C. / Charlotte, NC

Stop Breakage In Its TracksI love aphogee this is truely the best product I've tried so far my hair was breaking off so bad from this color I put in it that I had to cut my hair and I had long hair. I am a african american woman and tried all types of treatments and moisturizes but every time I would comb my hair it would break off so bad even after I cut it and I wasn't going to cut it again so I looked up how to stop hair breakage and came across aphogee and such wonderful reviews so I got my hairdresser to put it in the two step protein treatment and the 2 min keratin recontructor and I used ORS replenishing conditioner and my hair ia so soft and shiny the next day I put a little biosilk in my hair and every since I haven't seen any breakage at all. I wish I would've known about this product before I cut my hair but better late then never.Sep 12, 2010Steph / Philadelphia Pa

Amazing Product!This product is completely amazing! I am African-American and I have relaxed hair. My unrelaxed hair is pretty coarse but overall my hair has always been somewhat fine/thin. After a recent retouch, I decided to try stretching my relaxers appointments past my usual 6-8 weeks to reduce the chemical damage/moderate shedding i was expereincing at the time. Needless to say, this made things WORSE. My hair started to shed and break like crazy. After doing some frantic research for products to correct the damage, I came across the Aphogee line. I went to Sallys and bought the Two-Step protien treatment as well as the Balancing Moisturizer, Essential Oils for Hair and the 2-Minute Keratin Reconstructor. The Two-Step Protien Treatment in particular as well as the other items in this line have stopped the shedding and my hair feels like its getting back to a healthy state.You have to follow the instructions carefully and make sure to moisturizing conditioner immediately after applying it. Also you should only use it every six weeks since too much protien can make your hair brittle. You can use another brand of conditioner with not as much protien while you're in between treatments. With these products I have been able to stretch my relaxers longer without the shedding and damage. I am SURE that relaxing less often, using less heat and using these Aphogee products has accounted for the growth and fullness I am begining to see in my hair! I super highly reccommend this product as well as the other Aphogee products for anyone with damaged hair. With a little patience, you will achieve the results you want. You WONT regret it!Sep 3, 2010Adi / MarylandHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Dry Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair / Relaxed Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

So Far So GoodI just used this product today, and so far i'm impressed. I'm an African American female, and i am 20 years old and I have been battling with my hair for over 8 years now. At the age of 12 i had long, relaxed hair that was to the middle of my back. I got in a swimming pool and the chlorine had stripped my hair of everything. Since then my hair has been half way to my chin and shoulder length. but it hasn't been back to the length that i had before. when i went off to college my hair was very healthy and i decided to get color. just like the chlorine, the color stripped away my hair too. i had to cut all of my hair off and get micro braids. about 6 months ago i took the braids out (which I had in for about 10 months by then). my hair in the back was a little past my neck and the top of my hair (which i have been struggling with) showed a lot of improvement. then of course i relaxed my hair and now the front of my hair is breaking once again. i do not use flat irons. i roller set my hair once a week. I researched about Aphogee and the product line and decided to give it a try. I went from having the entire Cantu line which did not do much for my hair but strip me of the natural oils. So far i'm impressed with this treatment. the smell was not unbearable...but this process was indeed a messy one. i sat under the drier for about 45 minutes and washed it out and only about 5 strands shedded. i then proceeded with the Balancing Moisturizer, i kept that on for about 10 minutes with a plastic cap over my head. once i combed my hair out only 2 strands shedded. Now as i'm writing this review i'm under the drier for a deep conditioner. I use Motions moisturizing conditioner. i wanted to stay away from any protein conditioner due to reading reviews about protein overload. My goal is to get my hair back to where it was by this time next year. in 6 months i hope to see a major change because when i was younger i used Aphogee and my hair was very long, thick, and strong. i hope to get my healthy hair and length back. Sorry for the long story. but this product is amazing. I will be posting pics to show the progress. i've decided to use the product every 4 weeks because my hair is in need of protein.Jul 16, 2010Toni / Crest Hill, IL

Amazing - A Must-try If Your Hair Needs Some Resuscitation From Terrible Damage !OK, this stuff is AMAZING ! After a year away at college where I had no Dominican hair salon to go to, no rollers, no help, just a super damaging flat iron and a bunch of home hair color sets, my hair was completely lifeless. I have 3C relaxed hair which has always been strong and below my back. Of course, after bad hair dye jobs (done by myself) and no TLC, my hair was at my shoulders, with the bottom 1/3 completely useless. I was probably 80 percent sure I was going to cut my hair into a bob and start all over till I came across Aphogee on hair forums online. OMG, is all I can really say. Honestly, if this product did not amaze me with its results, it would have lost about 2 stars for its not so pretty scent and how lengthy the procedure is. I followed the directions verbatim and I was amazing. After the rinsing of the protein, I definitely saw my hair thicker and felt like I had more. After using the Balancing Moisturizer and my regular conditioner, my hair wasn't much softer or manageable, it was actually rougher. It wasn't until I took out my rollers when I realized the great effects of aphogee. My hair had more body, especially my lifeless ends. The strands individually feel stronger, and as a combed through my hair, very few hairs fell into the comb. I couldn't believe it till my mom noticed the difference as well. Ladies, this stuff is amazing. If your hair is really damaged, lifeless, and is breaking, this is for you. But I must advise you to follow the directions, be patient, and by far, be very gentle with your hair throughout this whole process. Thanks so much Aphogeee !!! If it changed my crazy damaged lifeless hair, it can probably change yours.Jul 11, 2010Lc / Brooklyn, NYHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Color Treated Hair / Relaxed Hair

Extraordinary!!!!!Ladies, this is like the best product I've ever tried that actually works. In the past I have used so many different products both cheap and expensive, I've even bought and used products coming from the Dominican Republic when I was over there and they cannot compare with Aphogee. I've used Sebastien-3 stars, Pantene Pro V for women of Color- 3 stars, Mizani- 2 stars, variety of Domonican products 3.5 stars, Tresemme-4 stars...Aphogee=5 STARS. Yesterday, 5/31/10, I bought the protein treatment because I heard it was really good along with the other bottles and it makes my hair looks brand new with just one use!!! I relaxed my hair 4 weeks ago, the same time I bought Aphogee shampoo, balance moisturizer, Keratin 2 minute, and the leave in conditioner and my hair keeps looking better within time. Now my Aphogee set is complete now that I just bought the protein treatment and it looks like I just relaxed my hair when all I did was wash it!!! Get it ladies. It turned my short, coarse hair into a sleek, manageable, shiny, crusty edge free hair...lolJun 1, 2010Nana G

Awesomeness In A BottleThis product works reallly good, It really stop my brakage immedietly, In one use only I saw the results which were fantastic! When using this product is very important to read directions, also remember only use it if your hair needs it(protein). Please keep in mind, THIS PRODUCT IS NOT TO TO MAKE YOUR HAIR SUPER SHINY! this product will make your hair stronger, literly, which means you need to fallow up with the BALANCING MOISTURISER and is highly recomended to fallow up with a very good moisturizer THAT DOES NOT CONTAIN PROTEIN!!!. Reasons why your hair may get damaged: .Ifyou leave it for an execive ammount of time it might damage your hair .If you do not moisturise your hair enough, your hair will brake .If used with a treatment that contain protein your hair might brake Use it every 6 weeks, i think it also say you can do it every 4 but i radder go with six. Hope this help Have a Happy Hair Day!!!May 22, 2010Priscilla

"Cuomo Pressing For Gun Control Deal Before State of State Speech"
Is Not Available At This Time.
Cuomo Pressing For Gun Control Deal Before State of State Speech
Please enter your comments below.
I deeply regret having just bought a house in this area. If I hadn't, I'd be leaving the state. The hysteria and idiocy of the voters in this state never ceases to amaze me.
gun ownership
Cuomo and all the socialist minded persons in Washington are crossing the line and are creating a dangerous situation in this country. Most people understand that taking away guns that have numerous rounds in the clip is only the start. Hillary Clinton was on the path with the UN to bypass the Senate and House to confiscate all weapons.
Law-abiding CCW
These new laws are beyond comprehension. They only hurt law-abiding citizens, they do nothing to stop the criminal/bad guy. On the international scale this type of legislation only gives the drug cartels another illegal product to smuggle and sell (at a high profit) to all the criminals in this country.
It's a start
Time to stand up to those who advocate the massacre of children. The NRA has become a menace.
Gun Control
This is turning out to be a political event for the Democrat party. Maybe Como and Obama should give up there body guards and their firearms. How can we teach our young men to the proper use of firearms and then tell them that when you get out of the service you can't have a gun because you might be a killer. We have laws for prostitution, but yet people still pay for sex, we have laws for drugs, yet we can still go out and buy any drugs we want, so all these laws are going to do is mark it harder for the people that are law abiding citizens. The Politicans are using a tragic event and capitalizing on it to further their careers. It's sad that we have come this far in the political world. I was a Democrat but i will change because of their views on gun control. Save our Constitution, its the only thing we have left to protect our rights.
Gun Violence
Tough Gun laws = increase Gun violence. If you don't believe me look at Ilonois and look at Michigan. Gun violence in Chicago is off the chart vs Gun violence in Detroit is way down. So Cuomo is going to end his political ambitions or put his future in the hands of gun control. It was nice knowing you Andrew
Gun Vilence?
please. I have never seen an angry bushmaster. I have never heard a pistol yell in anger. The person using the tool incorrectly is the violent one. God bless the sheepdogs.
Gun control=tyranny
I am convinced that without action we are all going to slide into the abyss of tyranny. Action in stopping the people who continue to circumvent the constitution at will. The second amendment is there for all of us, lets remember why we are able have a standing army overseas.Our goverment should be paying people to own firearms.
RE Tough Gun laws = increase Gun violence.
Wrong. Look at Australia, look at Guatamala. It's okay though, you're simply misinformed because you choose to get your information from right-wing propaganda outlets rather than from legitimate news sources. You may want to do something about that.

After losing two at Juan Diego the previous week, the Emery High baseball team came back strong last week and defeated two opponents by 10 runs each. On Friday, Emery defeated region opponent North Sanpete 12-2 and then on Saturday, in a make-up game due to earlier weather conditions, Emery defeated Uintah 13-3.
Talking with Coach Jimmy Jones, "We are finally fielding the ball better. We are not just out kickin it around. Our record is 5-7 but it could easily be 8-5 or 9-4. We are hitting the ball well and our pitching is getting better."
Against North Sanpete, Gatlan Huntington opened on the mound and pitched the first four innings. Skyler Jensen pitched the final inning in relief. In those four innings, Huntington kept the Hawks at bay until the fourth inning. In that inning, five batters got aboard but only two were able to score.
In the final inning, North Sanpete got a single but the other three batters gounded out or flew out.
Emery scored two runs in the first inning, one more in the second inning, four more in the third inning and five more in the fourth inning. In the first inning, Ryne Jones tripled and Blake Mortensen singled to score Jones. Jordan Gee singled Mortensen to second and Mortensen scored on a double by Derrick Allred.
In the second inning, Brett Mecham led off the inning with a double, stole third base and scored on a sacrifice fly by Colby Snow to left field.
In the third ining, Mortensen singled again followed by singles by Gee and Allred. After a sacrifice bunt by Huntington, Mecham and Tayler Tanner walked and Colby Snow singled to score the final of the four runs in that inning.
In the final inning, Mortensen singled again to open the inning followed by a walk to Gee. Allred singled and then Jensen doubled followed by a Mecham single. All would eventually score as Snow closed out the inning with a double and got stranded on base.
In the Uintah game, Brett Mecham opened on the mound and pitched three innings giving up one run and two hits. Blake Mortensen pitched the final two innings giving up two runs.
Emery went down in order in the first inning but scored six runs in the second inning to take a big lead. Emery would score two more runs in the third inning, four more in the fourth inning and then the final run in the fifth inning to get to the 10-run rule.
Mortensen singled again to start off the second inning. Mecham singled followed by Huntington walking and Jensen walking, Snow also walked and Jason Giles followed with a double. Jones followed with a double to empty the bases except for himself.
In the third inning, Gee got on by error, Huntington walked, Jensen walked and Gee and Huntington scored on passed balls. In the fourth inning, Giles got on base, Jones got on via an error, Gee singled, Mecham doubled and then North Sanpete walked Huntington, Skyler Jorgensen and Jensen to load the bases before the next two batters would strike out off a new pitcher and end the Emery threat and the inning.
Mortensen scored Emery's last run. He singled, got to second on a single by Gee and scored on a single by Mecham.
Emery plays Delta at home this Tuesday in a double header starting at 2:30 p.m.

RainRat, aka bogglerat on LiveJournal or just Rat, (born November 20, 1978) is a male furry who lives in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. He has a slight preference for RainRat rather than Rain Rat.
Personal information and history[edit]
He has been to Conifur, Howloween, Further Confusion, Anthrocon 2004, 2007 (as SuperSponsor), and 2009, Califur 2 and 3, RainFurrest 2007, 2008, and 2009, Midwest FurFest 2007, and All Fur Fun 2009. He has been on staff for Howloween. His first performance in a convention masquerade was a skit with five other fursuiters at Anthrocon 2007 about an armistice between rats and ferrets in an alternate World War II.[1] His second performance was at RainFurrest 2007 where he sang Yakko's World live, while pointing to the countries at the same time, while wearing an open-face Yakko costume.[2] His third was a Pirates vs Ninjas skit at Further Confusion 2008 with several other fursuiters.
RainRat found the furry community late-October 2002. He didn't have a fur name at first, but soon went by rat (lowercase, because it was more a description than an actual name). When he got LiveJournal, he chose the name bogglerat because even though he doesn't consider his skill at Boggle to be all that exceptional, some furries nicknamed him that after watching him play. It's not his typical name in spoken conversation though. On his way back from Further Confusion 2004, he was pondering a new name, because "rat" wasn't very distinctive at a big con like that. He was considering SnowRat, but the weather being how it is where he lives in Burnaby, it was raining, not snowing, so RainRat struck him as a much more appropriate name.
The interest in rats comes from the fact that he had pet rats even before he found the furry community, and he found them to be very social and interesting animals. In total, he has had eight pet rats (not all at the same time though).
On December 8, 2006, RainRat received his Canadian ham radio license, after tutoring from Trapa. His interest in the radio exam is more a matter of the intellectual challenge than a need to do anything with the radios.
Two LiveJournal communities, rodentfurs and vanfurs have also been started and maintained by him. He also almost-always hosts the vanfurs Game Night at his home. His place has also been the location for the vfur furmeet a few times. In March 2009 he was made one of the moderators of vfur. He started the BC Furry Community Board in March 2009, with help from Frysco and Rino.
RainRat often contributes to WikiFur and was promoted to administrator October 25, 2005. RainRat has released thousands of his images under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 or other free license. He also runs a bounty to encourage other artists to do the same. He also has contributed over 100 dollars Canadian to help the EFF, because of their defense of fair use and free expression online. RainRat and Marfles made a RainFurrest 2009 Music Video to the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Jonathan Coulton song Re Your Brains.
One pastime that RainRat really enjoys is Pokemon Puzzle League. Despite the name, it is a puzzle game that really has nothing to do with Pokemon. Other games have caught his interest over the years, like Nethack or Star Control II.
RainRat is on Second Life under the name Rat Rieko, where his preferred avatar is a Ninja Weasel Studios brown rat.
Comics[edit]Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 or earlier license so that others can build on it as long as they abide by the terms of the license. The entire comic so far can be viewed at RainRat's gallery.
RainRat's first furry wear acquired was a set of rat ears and rat tail made by Jimfoxyboy; then he learned how to make the rest of the rat fursuit from Trapa.
He has made several fleece character hats for himself and friends (as gifts; only once out of the five gift hats did he even ask for help buying materials).
RainRat also made part of Qumick's fursuit.
RainRat has eight fursuits.
Markus, a red fox, was built by Whiteyfawks of Arend Studios.[3]
The head was won in an auction on FurBid on March 24, 2004, and RainRat commissioned WhiteyFawks to make the rest of the body after winning the head.
Rattie is a brown and white rat.
RainRat built the body, paws, and first version head and second version tail with some help from Trapa. Jimfoxyboy built the first tail. The first version suit was finished just in time for Anthrocon 2004. The second version head was built by Whiteyfawks.
One thing he does for the character is dress the rat as a pirate; then he is a "pi-rat".
Bongo, a black and white wolf, made by Enigma Fox, won on FurBid, and was acquired around April 2006.
Arno is a wolf. In September/October 2006, he bought a wolf fursuit from Seven. To avoid confusion, he renamed the fursuit to Arno.
There are two heads that go with the fursuit, a toony style one by LatinVixen, and a realistic style one by WhiteyFawks.
Banto is a wombat. His name is a slight modification of the rearrangement of the letters in "wombat".
He is a partial fursuit, made by Fallimar and won in FurBid in August 2006.
Heliodor is a flying squirrel/raccoon/meerkat hybrid. Commissioned from SPark, he was finished October 2007. Heliodor was designed by Davecko specifically for the purpose of making a fursuit. The name Heliodor is taken after a gemstone. RainRat kept his ownership of Heliodor under wraps at first, because he was interested in seeing how people reacted to the character without knowing it was him.
Purpleski is a purple husky. Originally commissioned from Arend Studios for DieselDog, RainRat bought him September 2008. He renamed him to Purpleski to avoid confusion with the person DieselDog.
Bandit is a raccoon/meerkat based off the same art as Heliodor. The suit was commissioned from Kodi and received June 2009.
Jacky is a rabbit commissioned from Kodi and received August 2010.

Bills training camp observations: Day 5
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Jul 26 2014 12:35AM
With their first day off while at training camp now behind them, the Buffalo Bills took the field Friday night with a familiar, and quite welcomed face to help lead the defense in their 2014 efforts. Despite his current legal predicaments, that player is vital to the success of the team in the upcoming season.
Following his successful conditioning test on Thursday, Marcell Dareus was back on the field practicing with the Bills on Friday night. The stud defensive tackle did not take long to make his presence felt during team drills, earning some praise just barely an hour into practice.
Disruptive Dareus
- Despite missing the first four practices at St. John Fisher College, Marcell Dareus was brought back into the fray as though he never missed any time. When the Bills started up team drills for the first time on Friday, Dareus trotted out on to the field and took reps alongside Kyle Williams with the first-team defense. On his first day back Dareus didn't disappoint, looking light on his feet and getting through the offensive line on a few occasions. On one play, Dareus ripped right tackle Erik Pears aside and made solid contact with EJ Manuel as the quarterback was surveying the field in the pocket. He didn't take all the first-team reps, but received many more than maybe some were expecting considering his six-day conditioning problem.
Hughes continues sterling camp
- Last year's training camp showed that defensive end Jerry Hughes had a definite ability in rushing the passer, often beating his opponent on the offensive line to get into the backfield. That trend has continued into 2014, with seventh-round rookie left tackle Seantrel Henderson taking the brunt of the Hughes-led punishment. Hughes made Henderson look silly on a couple of plays during team drills, with one outside-in move that looked effortless on the defensive end's part. Of course, he is going up against a rookie in practice so there's no use in projecting a bigger season than last year just yet, but Hughes has been a consistent, disruptive force for the defense thus far.
Pair of young CBs flash
- One of the more intense portions of practice on Friday night occurred with the wide receivers and defensive backs going up against one another during one-on-ones. Fourth-round pick Ross Cockrell and the recently signed Kamaal McIlwain were the two cornerbacks that really stood out in that portion of practice, and then extended the positive play into team drills. Cockrell has struggled throughout offseason practices and the first few days of training camp, but he was strong both at the line of scrimmage and in sticking to his receiver on Friday. He was assigned the unenviable task of covering Sammy Watkins during team drills at one point, EJ Manuel looked for his wideout and thought he completed a pass over the middle of the field for about 15 yards. Cockrell was right in Watkins' hip pocket, extended as the wideout tried to make the hands catch and knocked the ball loose for an incompletion. McIlwain consistently played physically against his assignment and only allowed easy yards in front of him. He also showed awareness, reacting to a tipped pass and leaping up for the interception. This isn't the first day McIlwain has looked impressive, but it's been his best day thus far. If he continues this stretch of play, he could be in the mix for the final cornerback spot.
Linebacker carousel
- For the most part in the first four days, the Bills' base defense featured the same three linebackers: Brandon Spikes was at middle linebacker, Keith Rivers at strongside with Nigel Bradham manning the weakside. Having a day off from practice, the team must have decided to get more players in the mix and started a rotation of five different players. Spikes, Rivers, Bradham, rookie Preston Brown and the recently signed Stevenson Sylvester rotated through with the first defensive unit. The fascinating thing, though, was that none of them were locked into a specific position besides Spikes. The Bills are clearly training most of their linebackers to know each of the three positions, and getting them time there on the top unit is a good first step. The peculiar addition to the rotation is Sylvester, who hasn't even been with the team for more than two weeks. The team must have seen something they liked from him on their off day and he was rewarded with additional time on the field.
Backup QB contenders fail to impress
- When head coach Doug Marrone declared that the backup quarterback job was up for grabs between Thad Lewis and Jeff Tuel, the expectation is that one would grab the reins and make up the coach's mind for him. If one were to only watch Friday night's practice and be pressed to make a decision on one of them, most would likely take whatever is behind mystery door number three. With that written one must also consider this: it's only the fifth day of practice, meaning there is still a lot of time for improvement. However, both were scattershot during team drills and the red zone 7-on-7 period at the end of practice. Passes were sailing a good four-to-five yards away from their intended targets and a couple of interceptions were thrown along the way. Through the first five days, Tuel has been average but is playing with a lot more confidence than he did last year. Lewis on the other hand has more zip on his passes but has struggled mightily with accuracy since getting to Pittsford, NY. The duo will resume their battle on Saturday.
Day 5 MVP: WR Robert Woods
- Woods is as smooth as they come and for the first time since camp has begun he and EJ Manuel started connecting in the way that they did throughout training camp last year. He provided a sustainable target throughout the evening and brought in anything that was close.
Day 5 LVP: CB Michael Carter
- One of the last players added to the roster ahead of the offseason workouts, Carter didn't only have the problem of getting beat by receivers often during Friday's session. In fact, he made the problem exponentially worse by holding on to the jersey of the receiver after he got beat in a one-on-one setting. Carter was flagged for it three separate times, leading to a lot of long looks from defensive backs coach Donnie Henderson.
Up Next:
The Bills are back on the field Saturday night for their second straight practice under the lights. The session starts at 6 pm and is open to the public, but one must have a ticket in order to gain entry.

The difference is remarkable. ... ... ... ... I can't emphasize enough how a good zhuni pot will bring out the best in oolong teas.
Care to hazard an explanation, as to why this should be
Some years ago, I learned of Yixing Zisha and it's ability to absorb tea flavours and improve the brewing experience once a pot has been seasoned with and for the type of tea to be regularly enjoyed with said teapot.
Then the word in the teashops, and on these boards extols the excellence of zhuni, particularly yan cha. We are also told that zhuni is higher fired, and less absorbtive, but retains heat well.
Is it the heat retention throughout the infusion that is the dominant force?
Why then do I get magical results from really high density packing such that infusions can be 1s 1s 3s 5s 7s etc; for this scenario belies that heat retention can make much difference between thick walled zi sha and medium walled zhuni - possibly even gaiwans when the infusions are so short.
Is it maybe the prewarming and subsequent heat loss - the time between warming and filling with dry leaf? When filling a too hot too handle zhuni with long twisted yan cha can take me some time - do I need a purpose made tea funnel and wear gloves to speed up this part of the brewing
Too much thinking for my brain. I don't have to know why. What would it change? Either you have a good pot or you don't. I don't believe most of the reasons people give anyway. 1s or 10s seems far away from the actual experience and the tools at hand. Do you know what I mean?

The Lady Pirates played host to Navajo Mountain and Monument Valley this past week in two very important region matches. If the Pirates could pull off both victories it would put them solid second place in region with only two region matches remaining. The first match was early on Saturday with Navajo Mountain.
The Lady Pirates got off to a slow start, but settled down soon and dominated to win the match in three sets. All the sets were nearly identical with scores of 25-17, 25-17, 25-16. Megan Hatt led the Pirates with 13 kills, nine assists and four service aces. Michaela Hughes tallied 11 kills and three service aces. Jamie Johnson also had eight kills and five service aces. This was a complete team effort with all players greatly contributing to the win. Dallice Johnson with 18 assists. Sydney Thayn recorded two kills and two service aces, while Feleisha Antillon served up three aces.
This was only the first match of two on this day and the Pirates knew that the match with Monument Valley would be much tougher. The Pirates had beaten them earlier in the season in three sets, but all were very close. When the match began, it was evident that the MV Cougars had come to play as they jumped out to an early lead and held it. Quickly it seemed the score was 12-18 MV on top. As Megan Hatt took her position in the service area, the Pirates came to life. With great sets from Dallice Johnson and kills by Michaela Hughes and Jaime Johnson, coupled with hustle defense, Hatt soon served the score to 19-18 Pirates.
The remainder of the match was a dog fight but the Pirates prevailed in a great come back emotional win, 27-25. Green River dominated the second set 25-12 and held on in the third to win 26-24.
Megan Hatt again led the team with 17 kills, eight assists and three aces. Jamie Johnson recorded 13 hard kills and Michaela Hughes powered down eight kills, two assists and two blocks. This match was also won on total team effort as Dallice Johnson put up 23 assists. The tremendous hustle defense of the entire team sealed the win.
These wins put the Pirates in solid second place in region with the next match on Oct. 11 at Duchesne.

The Dragons took the spoils in their derby against Cardiff Blues, winning the PRO12 game 22-16 at Rodney Parade on Thursday.
The Dragons took the spoils in their Welsh derby against Cardiff Blues, winning the PRO12 game 22-16 at Rodney Parade on Thursday.
A stunning first-half try from Lions number eight Toby Faletau and five penalties from Jason Tovey sent the Dragons on their way to an impressive derby victory in front of a bumper home crowd.
Blues hooker Kristian Dacey crossed over for the visitors but the Dragons held on to secure a vital win.
Tovey, against his old employers, kicked the Dragons into an early lead with barely two minutes on the clock.
Wales and Lions number eight Faletau got the home fans on their feet 15 minutes in as he ran in a try from the halfway line after a smart line-out move by the hosts. Tovey added the extras to open up a 10 point lead over their Welsh rivals who were struggling to cope with the ferocity of the Dragons defence.
Cardiff Blues eventually mustered up some possession and they made full use of the ball as Leigh Halfpenny danced over the halfway line to get the Blues forward, before Dacey evaded two tackles to run in the try. Halfpenny split the posts with the conversion to slash the Dragons' lead to three points as the game approached the half hour mark.
The hosts came desperately close to extending their lead as Dan Evans released Hallam Amos on the left-wing but the Wales winger fell short of the try-line.
Cardiff were growing in confidence and Phil Davies' side drew level with the final play of the first-half as Halfpenny kicked over a penalty to make it 10-10 at the break.
The Dragons flew out of the blocks in the second-half and centre Ashley Smith thought he had scored his side's second try but the TMO over-ruled the score after Fijian flanker Netani Talei blocked Rhys Patchell in the build-up.
Cardiff hit-back instantly as Halfpenny kicked over his second penalty of the match to give the Blues a three point lead. But Tovey responded with a penalty of his own to level the scores with half an hour left on the clock.
Pat Leach gathered a perfectly timed offload from Faletau before storming into the Blues' half and Tovey nailed his third penalty of the evening to put the Dragons back in-front.
The Dragons were rampant and Blues number eight Robin Copeland was sin-binned as the hosts turned up the heat as the game ticked into the final quarter.
Tovey split the posts once again after the Blues were penalised for blocking before adding another penalty minutes later to open up a nine point lead as Copeland returned to the field.
Halfpenny clawed the Blues back to within six points of the home side with his third penalty of the evening with only 10 minutes of the match to remaining. But the hosts held on to secure a well deserved derby win and climb up to sixth in the Pro12 table.

|In response to Re: Adding a shower
: My husband and I are buying a 70 year old home. The bathroom is small, has a tub, but no shower. We want to add a shower head, but there are complications. (1)The tub is along the outside wall and there is a window above the tub. (2) Above the faucet end of the tub is a storage cupboard built into the wall. The door of the cupboard is flush with the wall and immediately above the faucets. We would like to save the cupboard because it offers the only storage in the bathroom. Any suggestions on adding a shower head and still protecting the window and the cupboard from water damage?
Yes, put storage above the tank of the toilet. Add a cabinet with mirrors above the lav. Replace the sink cabinet with the kind that comes with a lower slide-out drawer below the fittings for the sink. Replace the window with a vinyl frame, tempered glass and either tile or marble up to it, caulk it good. Terry
