That way, he will be less of an abomination than the straight Christian guy who works on the Sabbath, eats pork and shellfish, and wears a poly-cotton blend. Praise be to Jebbus.

Reading some of the comments here...
\"Prove what material the Big Bang came from\" are you serious? Do you even listen to yourself? How about you tell me where your god came from? since you were probably brainwashed from an early age (I\'m sorry) your answer is most likely, he always is and always was. Well why not save a lot of fucking time and say the material that made the Big Bang or our universe always was and always will be. That makes a lot more sense than a skyman telling people not to masturbate.
\"Prove god doesn\'t exist!\"
With that logic, prove I\'m not god, prove that my brain is not actually a cat typing away issuing me commands.
If I have superpowers, I\'m not going run up and tell people to prove I don\'t have superpowers, they\'re going to tell me, prove you have superpowers.
Tom wrote
@A.west0101 Christ isn't returning, Christ never existed. Stop being a child and grow up. The concept of Heaven and Hell is ridiculous. And why would the Devil punish people for being evil when he's evil? There is no such thing as superhumans, just those who know how to manipulate others into believing what they want. No one is kneeling to anyone. This world is so fucked up that if your Christ existed he would have showed up already.

Richard wrote
As a Christian, I must say that a lot of Christians make too many assumptions. First, the Bible never gives a timeline of life. 6000 years? Doubt it. The Bible also never said that Adam and Eve were the only ones that were created. It merely states that they were the first created. As for the evolution, I believe it does happen, just not as drastically as many evolutionists think. Perhaps the remains we see of our "ancestors" were simply extinct animals. Extinction happens everyday! But just because we have a lot in common, does not mean that we are "related". The Big Bang is interesting because it tries to explain how everything got here. It states that matter in a condensed form basically expanded rapidly and created the universe. What it has not stated, is where that initial matter came from. It had to come from somewhere, right? Matter does not create itself. Simply put, I believe the universe and all it contains is a design. And you cannot have a design without a designer.

XOMAN wrote
The origin of major "religions" were all based on the logical and scientific platform that consciousness or mind is the only entity that could conceive of any phenomena. For this reason it is the only LIFE. Hence this "Father" was called the all mighty.
This singular and impersonal source of thinking can not break itself up into many individuals, but only in dreams and illusions of separated minds which is impossible in reality. This childish separation was called Satan and is what "material" humans erringly believe they are.
Unbelievable the "modern, scientific" world has not figured this out yet and is intent on killing one another over their childish and mistaken belief about religion!
There never was a religion except in the minds of ignorant and confused humans! Jesus would have no idea what modern religion is talking about! Truly hilarious!

Beat down Christianity because you can get away with it, but as written earlier you would not attempt that with mohammed. And for all you religion haters that think GOD does not exist, I have one question: Where did the material come from that caused the Big Bang?

Focus on Tall Cypress Natural Area
The Tall Cypress Natural Area, owned jointly by Broward County and the City of Coral Springs, has long been known for its diverse flora and fauna, so it's fitting that the site will host a Jewels of Diversity Nature Walk this month. The free, volunteer-led event will take place from 3 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, September 15.
This 66-acre urban forest contains a dense, continuous canopy of cypress trees transitioning to slash pines, interspersed with shallow willow and pond apple depressions, sabal palm heads, red maples, and strangler figs. There is also a thick understory of ferns, saw palmetto, and other basin swamp plants.
Fortunately, there's an elevated boardwalk with two overlooks, interpretive signage, and seating areas to allow for public access to the site, which opened in February 2002. Other amenities, all made possible through the 1989 Environmentally Sensitive Lands (ESL) Bond Program, include a parking lot and restrooms. ESL funds also helped fund the purchase of the property. The Coral Springs High School environmental group Save What's Left also played a role in saving the site from development.
Due to the density of the vegetation and the lack of disturbance, Tall Cypress presents an ideal woodland habitat. Mammals that may be found include gray fox, cotton mouse, and Eastern gray squirrel; reptiles include Florida box turtle, Southern ringneck snake, and green anole; and resident and migratory birds include great horned owl, pileated woodpecker, cardinal, bluejay, and many species of warbler.
To reserve your spot for the walk, call 954-357-8114. For other information on the site, call the North District Office at 954-357-8700. Tall Cypress is accessible via Broward County Transit Route #34.
Meet the (Air Potato Leaf) Beetles
The USDA-Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Invasive Plant Research Laboratory will host a "Meet the Beetles" program to illustrate the lab's newest biocontrol agent, the air potato leaf beetle Lilioceris cheni. The program will be held at Long Key Natural Area and Nature Center on Friday, September 21 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. and is open to the public.
The program is part of a two-phase beetle release resulting from ARS research to combat air potato vine – an aggressive, invasive plant that is displacing native plant species and disrupting ecological functions throughout Florida and the Gulf Coast. Brief presentations by partner agencies will be followed by a release of the beetles in the natural area where the air potato vine is prevalent, and then there will be a visit to a nearby beetle establishment site to observe the beneficial impact of the biocontrol program.
For additional information, contact email@example.com.
An Everglades Experience
Last month we offered a narrative version of an airboat tour at Everglades Holiday Park. Now you can vicariously experience such an excursion via video at our Parks YouTube channel. Follow this link.
Labor Day Holiday Hours
All Broward County regional parks and nature centers, including water parks and campgrounds, and all neighborhood parks and natural areas will be open on Monday, September 3, Labor Day, with the exception of Deerfield Island Park. The administrative offices of the Parks and Recreation Division will be closed. The Markham Park Target Range will also be open on Labor Day, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Last Swim
Enjoy while you can! There are only a few remaining weekends in the current aquatics season at Parks and Recreation's four interactive water parks: Paradise Cove at C.B. Smith Park in Pembroke Pines, Tropical Splash at Central Broward Regional Park & Stadium in Lauderhill, Splash Adventure at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach, and Castaway Island at T.Y. Park in Hollywood.
The water parks will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5:20 p.m. based on the following schedule: Monday, September 3 (Labor Day), and weekends, September 8-9, 15-16, 22-23, and 29-30. After that, the water parks will remain closed until spring 2013, except for the K9 Water Festivals for dogs, which will be in October and November (see next month's Highlights for details).
There's a Hill in Broward County?
Yep, and it's at Vista View Park in Davie, home of the highest manmade elevation in South Florida – 65 feet above sea level. Vista View is also the site for the Sixth Annual King of the Hill 5K Challenge. The event is on Saturday, September 1, and registration gets under way at 7:30 a.m. Hang around afterward for a barbecue party and awards ceremony. For fees, registration, and additional information, visit the Website of the race-management company Split Second Timing. For directions to Vista View, call the park at 954-357-8898.
We Sell a Night Hike by the Seashore…
Okay, so it doesn't have the same ring as "She sells seashells by the seashore," but you get the idea. Hollywood North Beach Park in Hollywood will host another Night Hike by the Seashore, for all ages, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 1. Participants will learn techniques for observing creatures of the night as they hike the beach and adjacent coastal areas. The fee is $5/person, and preregistration and prepayment through the Anne Kolb Nature Center are required. For more information, call Anne Kolb at 954-357-5161. Hollywood North Beach is accessible via Broward County Transit Routes #4 and #12.
There's also a night hike much farther inland and much later in the month, as in the Full Moon Hike at Long Key Natural Area & Nature Center, form 7 to 8 p.m. on Friday, September 28. A naturalist will lead hikers along the nature center's trails under the light of the full moon as it rises. The fee is also $5/person. For more information, call Long Key at 954-357-8797.
Return of the Native
In subtropical South Florida just about anything you stick in the ground has a good chance of growing, which is why so many plants classified variously as non-native, invasive, or exotic can thrive. Such plants may have been introduced intentionally. Australian pines, for example, were originally planted throughout the region as shade trees and windbreaks; now they're out of control in many areas. Likewise melaleucas, which were once recommended as ornamental landscape trees but are now considered a nuisance plant.
Other times unwitting home landscapers cultivate the wrong kinds of plants, thanks to misinformation from such seemingly reliable sources as books, friends, nurseries, and the Internet. A home landscape including, say, areca and Chinese fan palms, wandering Jew vines, lantana shrubs, flowering four o'clock and ground orchids, and such trees as schefflera, weeping fig, mimosa, and orchid trees might seem like a good plan, but all these plants wreak varying degrees of havoc on the native environment. Even such fruit trees as mango, guava, and sapodilla come with their own sets of problems. And forget about tossing out houseplants that have outgrown their containers – they can easily take root and spread until they run amok.
That, simply put, is the potential problem. Non-native, invasive, and exotic plants can go wild in our yards, parks, and natural areas and on our roadsides and canal banks. The vast majority pose so serious threat, but some grow out of control, competing with native vegetation and gradually displacing it, forever altering ecosystems that have developed over millions of years.
The most notorious invasive plants – the aforementioned Australian pines and melaleucas, along with Brazilian pepper – have long been targeted by intensive campaigns to curb their spread. But you can also do your part simply by paying closer attention to what you grow in your own yard. Don't trust older editions of landscaping guides, which may contain outdated information, and don't buy plants just because they're pretty or your friends or neighbors recommend them. And by all means don't put indiscriminate faith in the Internet, which is rife with misinformation.
The key is educating yourself on what you put into the ground and what you do with it once it's planted, and for help with that you can turn to Broward County parks. From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, September 1, Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach will hold its Go Native in Broward County Plant Sale, which emphasizes the right kinds of plants to grow in your home landscape. Then, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, September 8, Fern Forest Nature Center in Coconut Creek will have its Fall Into Foliage Native Plant Sale, a comparable event. Gardening information and other activities will be offered at both events.
For more information, call Fern Forest at 954-357-5198 or Secret Woods at 954-357-8884. The nature centers are accessible via Broward County Transit Routes #31 and #42 (Fern Forest) and #6 (Secret Woods).
Making a Difference
For more than a quarter of a century, the Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup has cleared the trash from thousands of ocean and waterway sites, using volunteers from more than15 countries and locations. The cleanup, in fact, is the largest volunteer event of its kind in the world and regularly attracts nearly half a million participants.
In 26 years these volunteers have not only collected nearly 150 million pounds of trash from the shores of lakes, streams, rivers, and oceans, they have also catalogued it carefully to provide a clearer picture of the scope of the problem.
This year the event celebrates its 27th anniversary on Saturday, September 15. You can be a part of the landmark undertaking by participating in its local component, the Florida Coastal Cleanup, which takes place from 9 a.m. to noon at Hollywood North Beach Park in Hollywood. On-site registration is required.
Volunteers will almost certainly get wet and dirty and should dress accordingly. Participants should also bring gloves, a hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and drinking water. The event is for all ages, although children under age 17 must be accompanied by adults.
For more information, call the Anne Kolb Nature Center at 954-357-5161. Hollywood North Beach is accessible via Broward County Transit Routes #4 and #12.
Starry, Starry Nights
The French writer Victor Hugo once observed: "Where the telescope ends, the microscope begins. Which of the two has the grander view?" No doubt the telescope would get the vote of the members of the South Florida Amateur Astronomers Association (SFAAA), which opens the Fox Observatory at Markham Park in Sunrise every Saturday evening, weather permitting, for free stargazing from dusk to midnight.
The SFAAA also hosts the quarterly program An Evening With the Stars at Fern Forest Nature Center in Coconut Creek, where speakers cover basic telescope techniques and general astronomy information. The next session will start at 7 p.m. on Friday, September 21, and the program is free and for all ages.
For more information, call Fern Forest at 954-357-5198 or the SFAAA at 954-384-0442, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. The nature center is accessible via Broward County Transit Routes #31 and #42, while Markham is accessible via Route #23.
Mud & Mettle
Does the idea of proving yourself physically on a down-and-dirty obstacle course appeal to you? If so, you're a good candidate for the Broward 5K Fun Mud Run, a challenging event scheduled for Sunday, September 30 at Markham Park in Sunrise. Participants will face military-style obstacles, mud pits, strength and endurance tests, wall climbing, aquatic hurdles, and crawling and balance events. The 5K, which starts at 8:30 a.m., is for ages 13 and up. There's also a 1K Mini-Mudder Kid Run for ages 7 to 12; it starts at 11:30 a.m. Check-in for both runs is an hour before start time. Fees vary. For more information, contact the event sponsor at 800-975-6915, or visit www.muddogsevents.com.
Advisory Board Notice
The public is invited to the next meeting of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, which is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. on Friday, September 7. The meeting will take place at Everglades Holiday Park, 21940 Griffin Rd., Fort Lauderdale 33332, 954-357-8101. For more information, follow this link.

Tantrums in older kids
Yes, tantrums are meant to be a feature of the terrible twos but now here you are with a kindy kid and you're still getting some tantrums. Don't despair - you're not alone!
While tantrums do tend to ease off in the third and fourth years, there are still many little tantrum throwers out there:
- 59% of 3-4 year olds throw tantrums
- They throw tantrums 5-6 times a week
- Their tantrums last about 5 minutes, compared with 4 minutes in a toddler.
Why do tantrums happen?
Tantrums usually occur when your child is frustrated, stressed or tired, and with limited means to communicate how he's feeling, he vents all his strong emotions in one long tirade that is a tantrum.
As your child matures, he will develop better ways of communicating how he feels - mainly through language - and so tantrums naturally tend to decrease with age.
If, however, your child is still tearing into a tantrum on a regular basis, you should consider whether he has developed the right vocabulary to express how he's feeling.
- Ensure that she understands that she can talk to you about how she feels. Perhaps ask her questions that may open the door to this type of self-expression.
- Don't reward his behaviour. Your pre-schooler may view throwing a tantrum as a tool to getting what he wants, so be sure that you don't give in to his demands while he's displaying out of control behaviour.
- She may be using tantrums as a way of getting your attention. If you suspect this to be true, you're best off ignoring the tantrum while it goes on. Stay close by and keep an eye on her to make sure she won't hurt herself, but try not to respond to the tantrum itself. Once it's over, engage with her normally again.
- Try putting a reward system in place that may encourage calm and appropriate behaviour in situations that would ordinarily result in a tantrum.
- Often kids react strongly to situations that they don't feel prepared for, so give timed warnings when you are about to do something that might result in a tantrum - 'In five minutes I want you to turn off the TV' - and make sure that he's not only looking at you but he's listening as well!
Kindy kids tend to take themselves very seriously and while there are those parents who find tantrums very upsetting, there are others who find them funny - here's this little person flinging himself around in a blind fury. Don't laugh at him or even look vaguely amused because he'll find it even more upsetting that you're not taking him seriously.

Trees and grass are seen on the land where a a full-size replica of Beijing's Forbidden City will be built, in the Wyong region near Sydney June 16, 2013. Australia's coastal Wyong region outside Sydney, a pretty stretch of pristine beaches and wildlife-filled wetlands, isn't high on the travel agenda of most Chinese tourists. But the local mayor and a Chinese businessman have big plans to change that - by building a A$500 million ($480 million) theme park that will include the Forbidden City replica and a nine-storey temple housing a giant Buddha.

U.S. Coast Guard Executive Officer Cmdr. Blake Welborn, who is based at the Marine Safety Unit Morgan City, said northbound traffic on the Atchafalaya River has been reopened through Morgan City, while the North-South route locally to the Mississippi River through the Port Allen Locks, known as the Port Allen Route, also has been re-opened.
While the water has dropped, Welborn warned that the current still is swift.
The high water also is forcing delays at the Bayou Boeuf Locks, where Welborn said it is taking between an hour to an hour and a half to "lock" boats through.
"The lock master is putting as many barges as they can, sometimes two or three tows apiece, to try to get them through there as quickly as possible," he said.
Also, the barge in Bayou Chene should be removed around July 1, Welborn said the St. Mary Parish Levee District told him.
While the channel will be dredged to its authorized 400 foot wide by 20-foot depth, the rocks along the bank where the barge was placed will remain in place — in case the waterway needs to be blocked off hastily for future emergencies — and will be marked by the Coast Guard.
"It is creating a bottleneck to a certain extent there in the Bayou Chene area, so we're very concerned about" getting them marked, so vessels operators are aware of them, Wellborn said.
It's also troublesome for some of the port's tenants.
"We (Port) have at least two tenants that it's still impeding their commerce by having the Chene (blocked off). They understand it was a good thing to protect the community … but right now with the water falling, they're still having to go back up the Houma (Navigation Canal) … back to their yard," Commissioner Duane Lodrigue told Welborn in urging the opening of the waterway as quickly but safely as possible.
The Levee District is looking to remove the structure when the differential between the protected and unprotected sides is at a foot. Right now a 2-foot difference exists.
While Welborn said no shoaling has been reported along the Port Allen route, he said nine groundings were reported this past weekend within the 20 Grand Point area in Morgan City.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is expected to begin dredging this area Thursday. The Corps has said it will take them approximately two days to clear that area of shoaling and to survey it.
Anh Nguyen of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' New Orleans District said surveying would begin in Berwick Bay now that the Burlington-Northern Santa Fe Railroad bridge has been opened.
She said surveying would be done in the Atchafalaya River and Bar Channel this week, but surveying in Bayou Chene will not be complete until the barge has been removed.
Surveying also will be done on the Berwick side of Berwick Bay to determine if any scouring has been caused by the swift current with increased velocities of the Atchafalaya as it passes the area and then whips around Tidewater Point.
Nguyen said about $8.5 million is in the port's dredging account for work and the Corps may request up to an additional $23.5 million — $15 million for the Atchafalaya Bar Channel and $8.5 million for Bayou Chene — to conduct emergency dredging following this high water event.
She said costs could be better determined after the surveys are complete.
Port consultant Martin Cancienne of The Livingston Group in Washington, D.C., said that the number the Corps has been floating around for all of its emergency dredging needs following the high water event is $2 billion.
He said the possibility of funding an Emergency Supplemental Appropriations bill for this work still is looming as Congress is waiting on the White House to send them its request.
If any emergency money is passed, Cancienne said Congress is going to want to offset the costs somewhere.
Commissioner Matt Ackel requested that Nguyen look at the installation of rock finger piers on the Berwick side of Berwick Bay using rocks from the Demonstration Channel Alignment Structure that was installed further downstream but failed to work. The Corps has studied this fingerlings concept in the past as a way to channel the current to the middle of Berwick Bay, which Ackel reasoned may reduce dredging.

Meet Outfit Sept 29, 2009 15:25:27 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by QNPoohBear on Sept 29, 2009 15:25:27 GMT -5 Rebecca's Meet Outfit consists of the dress, underpants and barrette.Rebecca's dress is a very nice, rich red color, almost burgundy. I think the book described it as garnet. It has a herringbone pattern woven in to the material. The collar and cuffs are thick velvety material and inside the sleeves are lined. I expected the material to be thicker, more like wool, but it's medium thickness and not bad. The dress is tight going over the head or hips of a larger PM girl or Goetz Little Sister. It's tough to get her arms in the sleeves. The buttons are decorative and loose. They look like they might fall off easily with a lot of play. The underpants are better quality than Samantha's. They are more like Ruthie's, with ruffles at the legs. The barrette is plastic and looks flimsy but it actually holds quite a bit of hair. Grade: A-

It's not too thin or thick. The waist has an elastic, and it is trimmed with velvet. I can't get it to fit on Rebecca right. I looks strange all ways to me. Ah well, it's still a nice outfit. The bloomers are cute and are my first old-fashioned pair of undies, so I can't say much.The barrette doesn't seem so cheap to me. They must have improved it. It holds her hair just fine to me.Ahh... The boots. I wish they were made of somewhat...firmer material, but it's just fine. I really like that the velcro doesn't snag the stockings.The stockings are really cute and detailed.Overall, I give this an A.

When I first purchased my Rebecca, I didn't care too much for the dress as I wasn't a big fan of the color. It took me a while to warm up to it, but now I love it. The color is nice and rich looking, and I love that the sleeves are lined with white material so that they won't stain her arms. The style of her dress is lovely, and I love the way it fits her. Her undies and tights are exactly that- undies and tights, but both are nicely made. I did snag a foot on one of her boots, but luckily it was on the bottom so you can't really see it. The boots are so cute! They look nice with the rest of the outfit. Overall grade: A

A bouncer at the Longbranch in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
ALSO What to say when an undesirable person is bothering you or a fight has broken out at the Longbranch in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan "Don't make me red shirt you!"
"Hey red shirt! There's a fight!" |
1. | red shirt | ||
A character in a science fiction or adventure story whose sole dramatic purpose is to get killed by the story's villain and/or intinerant monster.
Taken from the propensity of security officers on the original Star Trek series (who typically wore red uniform tops) to be killed in the epsiodes' pre-opening-credits teasers. Methinks Lt. Jones is doomed to be just another red shirt.
2. | Red Shirt | ||
Walk on player to college team, on team, does not play in games for one year to save a year of eligibility. Even though the red shirt running back is the better one, he doesn't play because he is a red shirt; if he plays he'll give up a year of eligibility.
3. | red shirt | ||
In star trek episodes,the expendible crew member who always dies wears a red shirt .so that it has come to mean the failure or defeat of an idea or action. Thats a good idea but, corporate is sure to red shirt it.
4. | red shirt | ||
A Navy term used to describe a person who's job is in Aviation Ordnance on an aircraft carrier flight deck. An ordnanceman. If you see the 'Red Shirts' running, keep up.
5. | red shirt | ||
In college athletics, a red shirt is a player that is on the team, but hasn't played in a game yet.
One of the previous posters is incorrect about red-shirts being walk-ons. Scholarships players are red-shirted all the time. Johnny was given a scholarship to play quarterback, but was told by the coach that he would red shirt his freshman year until he learned the system.
7. | red shirt | ||
A person whose quality of work is so poor that they are bound to be fired. Based on the Star Trek characters that suck so much at their job that they end up getting killed on always missions while all of the other officers don't even break a sweat. Holly doesn't even know enough about her job to make a single decision. She can't even understand the basics of here own job. What a red shirt.

In His Kitchen
By Janet Reynolds/HealthyLife
As host of the popular Food Network show Chopped, chef Ted Allen directs the frenetic pace of a competition in which four chefs have to cook an appetizer, entrée and dessert, each within 20 minutes, using mystery ingredients in baskets they open on-air. In each episode a chef is "chopped" for not cutting it with the three professional chef judges, until a final winner emerges.
In his home life, Allen prefers a slower approach to food and dining. It's an approach he outlines for home cooks everywhere in his new cookbook, In My Kitchen, 100 Recipes and Discoveries for Passionate Cooks.
Allen's reason for choosing slow food is simple. "Cooking is not drudgery I'm trying to avoid," he says. "In fact it's not about the destination but about the journey. That's very much true for me on food."
Allen's idea of a perfect Sunday, for instance, is to invite friends over for cooking and eating. "It's what we do for fun," he says. "Feeding people and cooking together is one of the best things to do with family and friends. For nurturing and discovery, it's great."
That attitude shapes In My Kitchen from start to finish. This is not a book for people hoping to create 30-minute meals. This is a book for savoring the joy of the act of cooking itself. The end point of tasty food is just — sometimes literally — the icing on the cake.
The book offers a plethora of recipes from starters to desserts. In between, Allen settles some of the debates that can crop up amongst foodies and the food blogosphere. To those who say, for instance, that pre-heating an oven is optional (mostly prompted by energy-saving concerns), Allen has this response: No. Continue reading

LEXINGTON — Surry Central's Lady Eagles battled but lost in a hard fought match last night in the second round of the state volleyball playoffs against the Central Davidson Lady Spartans.
The Golden Eagles finally fell to the Spartans in the fight that ended in a five-game tiebreaker shootout.
The scores of the Golden Eagles versus Spartan match were: 25-23; 15-25; 25-21; and 22-25. The Lady Spartans edged out the Eagles in a fifth and final tiebreaker score ending in 15-13.
Coach Carrie Hutchens, who could not help but be disappointed, said she was proud of how hard the girls fought. The unforced errors made by the Eagles finally led to the defeat between two evenly matched defensive teams.
The Golden Eagles have gone to the volleyball playoffs two years in a row. This year they achieved the accomplishment of making it to the second level of the playoffs.
The leading scorers for the Golden Eagles were: Kendra Johnson with 17 digs and two kills; Courtney Hegler with 17 digs and 11 kills; Cassidy Joyner 13 digs and seven kills; Kaitlin Kidd with four digs, one block and seven assists; Meagan Hutson with two digs and 17 assists; Kelsey Taylor with five kills and two blocks; Brooke Lewis with nine kills and six blocks; Tori Blevins with one block and three kills; and Holly Mason recording six assists.
Central Davidson now advances to play Starmount, at Starmount, in the next playoff round on Thursday night.

Real Tweets from Real People - Harold Reynolds, MLB Draft Expert
You may have missed it what with Game 1 of the NBA Finals and Game 4 of the NHL's Western Conference Finals, but Major League Baseball held their draft Thursday night with coverage on MLB Network. Of course, you may have also missed it because the immediate relevance of the MLB Draft compared to its NFL, NBA, and even NHL brethren is nil. It takes a hugely dedicated baseball fan to truly grasp the context of each pick and how they may potentially fit into the structure of a franchise.
The MLB Draft is a night for the hardcore baseball fan.
The hardcore baseball fan does not like Harold Reynolds.
Fans are smart enough to figure out when an analyst is in over his head or out of his depth. Reynolds' relationship with the online baseball community is already icy at best. The whole reason Reynolds is on MLB Network's debate show MLB Now is to argue against Brian Kenny's more sabermetric, information-oriented viewpoint. To throw him onto MLB Draft coverage when it demands an insanely wide depth of knowledge and information and speaks moreso to an already adversarial audience is just asking for a trainwreck. And a trainwreck is what those baseball fans got.
As always, these are Real Tweets from Real People...
