How did you score the UFC 139 main event between Dan Henderson and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua?
The cage-side judges at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., on Saturday scored the bout 48-47 for Henderson by unanimous decision on all three judges' official scorecards. But UFC president Dana White saw the five-round instant classic as a draw.
"I thought it was a draw," White told MMAWeekly.com following the event.
"This is one of those tough fights. In the first round, they both knocked each other down. You give Henderson the first three rounds. You give Shogun (round) four and 10-8 in the last round for a dominant round. It's a draw," he explained. "It's one of those tough ones. That's how I scored it. I scored it a draw.
"I don't consider myself a professional judge, but I had the fight a draw."
Henderson hurt Rua with a punch in the early going and the Brazilian was forced into survival mode after being knocked down. As White pointed out, each scored a knockdown in the first round. Rua recovered and finished strong, but Henderson's early onslaught gave him the first stanza on the scorecards.
"I honestly didn't think it was going to make it out of the first round. It thought Henderson was going to finish him in the first round and Shogun showed amazing recovery, amazing heart," said White.
Henderson got the better of the exchanges in the second round, but it was a competitive five minutes with neither doing substantial damage. In the third, Rua looked to be finding his range but ate a Henderson right hand that sent him crashing to the canvas 90-seconds into the round.
Henderson swooped in and tried to finish, but was unable to put Rua away. Rua went to his submission skills and isolated one of Henderson's legs. It was enough to fend off the barrage of punches, but Henderson quickly escaped the submission attempt. Rua secured a takedown and proceeded to land left hands in rapid fire. Henderson, again, did damage early and looked to be on the verge of finishing, but Rua came back in the closing minutes.
Rua came to life in round four, taking Henderson down early. Henderson had his moments in the middle portion of the round, but the final two minutes were all Rua. Fatigue set in for Henderson and Rua took advantage. He began to land power punches and secured a takedown late in the round and mounted Henderson. The round ended with Henderson reversing Rua to obtain top position, but Rua had won the his first segment of the five-round affair.

Leaving their corners for the final round, Rua was clearly the more conditioned athlete. Henderson was bent over breathing heavy and his corner advised him to clinch and not exchange in the closing round. He wouldn't have the opportunity to. Rua secured an early takedown and spent the next four and a half minutes mounting the former two-division Pride champion several times and laying down ground and pound.
After being on the verge of being finished in the opening rounds, Rua logged the most dominant round of the fight in the fifth. Many scored the round 10-8 for Rua, including MMAWeekly's play-by-play.
"(Rua) was hurt so many times in that fight and then comes back and wins the last two rounds, and in my opinion wins the last round 10-8," said the UFC president.
That would mark the fight a draw on the UFC pres' scorecard. But in any event, nearly all agree, Shogun vs. Henderson was an instant classic, rivaling the likes of the Forrest Griffin vs. Stephan Bonnar slugfest at the TUF 1 Finale.

last round should have been a draw
i had it at a draw too
i think dan won it because i dont think the lastround was a 10-8, cause it al started of when dan to rua down and got reversed becuase you also have to remember in the first 3 rounds rua was droped in every round.
Nope Hendo won it! Dana was being nice to Shogun ….he was busted up and he …won the 5th round …but that was it!
Hendo Vs. Jones!
Chael vs. Silva
Nah, I totally disagree with the people who are saying – "it should have been a draw"
Hendo beat his ass.
That was the difference.
Dan won, end of story.
Thank god your not a judge !
Pretty clear it was a draw !
draw my cornhole.
I actually concur with your comment! Rube if that fight was NOT a draw, then I dont know what fight could be considered a draw! 1st, 2nd & 3rd Rounds to Henderson – Rua won thee 4th & definately won the 5th Round 10-8, so how is this not a draw? Maybe you should use a calculator, because I have it 47-47. How was the 5th Round not a 10-8, can someone please explain to me why judges who are paid to know this (crap), not know this (crap)?!? Hendo could have made a matress info-mercial in the 5th Round, thats how long he was on his back – barely surviving BUT no 10-8 round. LOL okay whatever you say!
Adidas answer me this… Did you score the 3rd round 10-8 for Hendo?
No ! Because he did not dominated start to finish ! Damage isn't everything !
Dana has this thing with his boy Shogun, his most prized PRIDE acquisition. He has always been a bit dismissive of Hendo. Examples: When Hendo KOed Wandy, Dana made a disparaging statement about Wandy losing to a middle weight. When Shields defeated Hendo, Dana made yet another disparaging statements about Hendo being outclassed by a smaller opponent.
Of course there was a lot of business reasons in making thoses statements. Hendo vs Wandy totally killed the importance of Wandy vs Chuck. He was also courting Jake Shields at that time.
But the bottom line is this. Hendo, as of late, has looked SUPER impressive. To be honest, I dismissed him as being too small to compete at 205. But he just knocked out Fedor and destroyed Shogun, two fighters that are naturally bigger, more decorated, and higher ranked than him.
Hendo did enough in rounds 1~3 to win the fight. He put Shogun through a meat grinder in those rounds.
"Hendo, as of late, has looked SUPER impressive." When will the fantasy end for you?
If Shogun gets a 10-8 round for the 5th round, then Hendo should get a 10-6 round for the 3rd round. Shogun nuthuggery is at an all time high and it's pathetic.
dude it's a 10-8 round when you are on the ground mounted and getting gnp'ed the entire round it was complete domination!!! Hendo dominated in round 1 and took a decline up until the third, although he won all three! But point wise is what mattered and shogun in fact did enough to earn a draw!
Did you even watch the fight RubeKegal?
You have no idea what your talking about
Being a black belt doesn't make your opinion superior, but rather more times than not biased towards the BJJ guy. Hendo won this fight, get over it.
Ignore him. He has been stalking me for the last few weeks just to annoy me.
I think I said something that ticked him off. He has been leaving deprecating remarks.
The funny thing is that I didn't even report this dude. But, the site moderator deleted his comments.
I think it's the first time the moderator deleted someone's comment.
The day that you get your college degree.
Have you signed up for spring semester at your local community college yet?
Serious question. How come you are 29 and still don't have a college degree? What have you been doing in the mean that?
"What have you been doing in the mean that?" Is that English? Is that what your college degree taught you? Again, what a tool!
Shogun lost the fight, and it matters very little beyond that. Get over it already!
I immediatly said it was a draw after the fight had ended before i ever heard anyone elses opinion. Dan definitly won rounds 1-3, and shogun definitly won rounds 4 and 5. And by the definition of a 10-8 round, shogun won that last round 10-8.
with all that being said, i thought dan won the fight as an overall fight, but in the streets, if there were no final round, then shogun looked to be the victor. I call it a draw.
If this were the streets? Spoken like a true fan defending his boy. Shogun got obliterated in the first 3 rounds and any of those rounds can be a "10-8″
3 Professional judges saw it 48-47 for Hendo UNANIMOUSLY. End of discussion. Dana's not a judge and he shouldn't try to score fights because he is terrible at it.
Well in that case if the 3 "professional judges" saw it 48-47 Hendo, then it has to be 100% right, right?!? Give me a break dude, are you telling me the JUDGES get it right ALL the time, because they are pro judges?!? HELL NO! If anything MMA judges are the absolute WORST, because of the lack of consistency. I guess Shields really beat Kampamnn, Lyoto DID NOT beat Rua in their 1st fight, but the "pro judges" say Lyoto was victor = JOKE! Diego "lost" to Kampmann, yet the judges gave the W to Diego, & lets not forget Antônio Rogério Nogueira Vs Jason Brilz – where Brilz clearly won that fight hands down, yet the "professional judges" gave the fight to the name they knew. Just because they are "pro judges" does'nt mean a whole lot to anyone, well besides you.
Thats right Adidas. They are professional judges and you are not. Stop gripping Shogun's balls so hard, he's losing oxygen. Calling this fight a draw is a joke. And answer me this, If Shogun deserves a "10-8″ round for the 5th, how does Hendo not get a 10-7 or 10-6 for the 3rd?
Furthermore, if "Pro Judges" were infallible then they would only need one and split decisions would never happen.
also if this were "the streets", Shogun would be dead at the hands of Bones Jones.
judges have awarded 10-9 round for fighters doin nothing but holding their opponents against the cage (see Couture vrs Vera). Shogun spent 80% of the round mounted with hendo occasionally hip escaping into half guard while getting punched only to be immiediatly mounted again. Shogun worked for an arm triangle and landed punches elbows and hammer fists fo the entire round to recieve a 10-9. if it was GSP or Matt Hughs they would have recieved a 10-8. The message sent to fighters is lay and pray. Shogun got jobbed to extend Hendos Career slightly
I think people want this fight to be a draw on an emotional level rather than a realistic level. I wanted this fight to be a draw at the end because it was such a great battle. However, I cannot stop thinking that Hendo totally won this fight. He certainly would have won under Pride judging, which judged the fight as a whole.
I really think this 10-8 business for Shogun is unwarranted in the fifth. I really think that Shogun was able to dominate Hendo in the fifth, not because of superior skill, but because Hendo was out of gas. Now that alone, I acknowledge, doesn't matter as far as scoring is concerned. However, I think that because they were both so out of gas, Shogun didn't really damage Hendo in the fifth like Hendo damaged Shogun earlier in the fight. Plus, I think you can say conversely that Hendo beat Shogun in the first three rounds with skill and did a huge amount of damage without the aid of Shogun being completely gassed.
I agree with KBEsq who is one of the few here who is actually thinking logically about this. If Rua had truly dominated Henderson in the 5th you would expect there to be some physical evidence of that on Dan's face at least, but there really wasn't.
If you give Rua a 10-8 for laying on Henderson in the 5th and hitting him with a couple of wet noodles, you MUST give Henderson a 10-8 for round 3 when he did so much damage to Rua that his face looked like a Hallowe'en mask at the end of it.
Thanks for the compliment =)
I wasnt aware that in the UFC there's a rule that states, according to your logic of course….. that there has to be some physical evidence to make a round 10-8, thats funny b\c I've never heard of that b4, I thought a 10-8 round is considered when you cmpletely dominate your oponent, regardless of the physical state of his face. Hendo was on his back for almost the entire 5 mins & mounted how many times 4-6 diff times Rua had Hendo mounted, yet because there was barely any marks on Henderson's face it should not be a 10-8 round?!? That has to be the DUMBEST thing I've ever heard. GSP got how many 10-8 VS Hardy?!? Rest my case, thanks for trying!
Is it not true that if you cannot defend your self, regardless of the type of strikes you are taking, if you cannot defend form slaps to the face, the ref will stop the fight?!? So how does your stupid logic of "there should be some physical marks on his face for it to be a 10-8 round" make any sense?!? BJ Penn (except the Diaz fight) would barely ever get cut, look at the beating GSP gave Penn & barely any marks on his face, yet BJ almost died from the beat down GSPP gave him, but his face was barely bruised. You talk abou logic, yet you have NONE!
ATTENTION: It's logic that if a persons face is NOT bruised or physicaly damaged, then a 10-8 round is NOT possible. Talk about STUPIDITY @ it's best!
Umm, I never said anything about marks on people's faces. and my logic had nothing to do with that. I think if I could sum up what I said into a sentence or two, it would be that you don't deserve a 10-8 because you were able to mount someone who can barely move or breathe, and basically let the gravitational pull of your arms fall on that person a few times.
That logic doesn't seem stupid to me at at all. Just mounting someone isn't domination per se.
don't pay attention to him KBE, he is a moron who wanted Shogun to win. Every time Shogun loses, I will be on here sticking it in their faces. These same people probably think Shogun beat Bones Jones.
Bad logic, if this fight was judge as whole like in pride than it wouldnt even be a draw it would be a Shogun win ! Seeing how he was all but finished when the fight ended. Hendo would have gotten finished if this fight went another round !
Now Shogun should have won? Get off the drugs cptmats….it's clear you are here to promote your boy who got smashed. deal with it!!
**** are you ever stupid ! "My boy" i dont even like him. Sound more like your pissed that "your boy" had the fight on a silver platter and couldn't finish the job !
Deal with it !
Hendo won end of story, DEAL WITH IT!
I know I fall victim to judging damage done by the look of a fighters face as well, but it's not really right to do. The problem is that people cut, and swell differently. There are a few guys out there that don't seem to cut, and bleed much even when taking a lot of damage. Others get popped by a jab, and bleed like they've been hit by a Mack truck. I heard an interview with "stitch" that talked for awhile about this topic. Some guys you know just get cut.
Now I'm not saying that shogun is a "bleeder," but I do recognize that looking at surface damage done isn't always the best indicator of who won the fight.
When the fight was over I remember thinking that they were going to score it a draw, and both fighters would be pissed. That's not to say that I thought it was a draw. It's just what I thought the judges would do.
The fight could have fairly been scored a draw, or it could have been scored like it was for hendo. It would have been tough to give it to shogan. So if the score was wrong, it wasn't obsurdly so.
You could ask this question though. If shoguns rd 5 wasn't a 10-8, what constitutes a 10-8 round?
IT WAS NOT A DRAW!!! Far from it. Hendo beat the living crap out of Rua for the first three rounds, where Rua basically just survived.
Fourth round Hendo lost his step a bit and Rua did a bit better, but by that time he was also tired and survived once more by pushing Hendo to the fence. Yeah he landed some shots but he never had Hendo in any danger.
Fifth round, them two were dying of exhaustion. Rua seemed dominant because he spent mostly on top but he didn't do damage, and Hendo got out from under several times. Bottom line that was the round where Rua needed to finish Hendo with a submission or something but he did not do it.
Hendo won, no question about it. There was never any draw! You can't get you asss kicked for three consecutive rounds out of five and claim a draw. Nah ah.
I also thought it should have been a draw but I wasn't surprised at all when they announced Hendo the winner. To me, he did edge out the first 3 rounds over Rua
If even Dana White thinks it was a draw then Hendo cant get a title fight without one more contender match. People dont get to fight for belts coming off of draws.
Dana doesn't want to deal with Hendo. He wants to retire him.
Some interesting comments. Kinda on the fence with this one which is why a draw gets a little traction for me. But then again Hendo did do most of the damage.
hell no dan won that fight he won the 123 n maybe the 4 to…….
lol you should watch the fight before you comment !
definitely should have been a draw – i hope shogun vs hendo II comes soon. i like shogun, but he can be a slow starter. deadly fight, man.
Yeah, what's up with him these days. He is so inconsistent. From the way he destroyed Forrest, he should have blasted through Hendo.
And Hendo, like I said, has been looking SUPER impressive as of late. He wasn't the best fighter in PRIDE. And he had to cut weight because he couldn't compete against the big boys in PRIDE. Then he knocks down Wandy. Then comes to the UFC and knocks down Bisping. Now he has turned into a knock out artist. WTF?
Wooooo – Just because Rua destroyed an overrated Forrest, why should he have destroyed Henderson?!? How you can even think about comparing Forrest Vs Henderson is confusing! Not even close dude! If I think the way you do, that would mean Hendo KO'd Fedor (a much bigger fighter & at one time many morons… I mean people considered Fedor the #1 P4P fighter) doesnt that mean Hendo should have finished Rua easily? let's not forget that Hendo is\was the Strikeforce LHW Champ. According to your logic, Hendo should have DESTROYED Rua because of his last fights.
Agreed Hendo is a beast Forrest is a joke. To compare the two is just stupid !
Not stupid at all. I never compared them stylistically.
Just two years ago when Forrest was on top of his game (or everyone thought he was), no one would have said Hendo (a 185lber) should be ranked higher than Hendo.
Just few months ago Forrest was ranked higher than Hendo.
I think some of you are forgetting Hendo's PRIDE performances. He was good but never a top dog in PRIDE. And because of that (and the fact that he is getting older) I've been counting him out.
Some people here have a tight kung fu grip on Shogun's testes. Like I said before, if Shogun gets 10-8 for 5th, then Hendo gets 10-6 for 3rd. Someone in here put it well saying Shogun looked like he was wearing a Halloween mask at the end of the 3rd.
Dana is not a judge and for good reason. This is the same man that thinks Rampage beat Machida.
I can't believe Dana's comments have stirred up this much controversy. Had Dana agreed with the decision, I believe 1/2 of above posters would say Hendo won.
Hendo put Shogun through a meat grinder in rounds 1~3. Shogun was too tired to do anything effective rounds 4 and 5. Getting full mount and throwing girly punches (sorry Shogun) is not the same thing as completely destroying someone's face.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SHOGUN's FACE LIKE THAT. HE HAD BRETT ROGERS'S LIPS.
It was obviously a draw, shogun could of stole the first round with the knockdown, round 2 was close and round 3 was close besides the near finish, a near finish does not make a round a 10-8 round, round 4 was all shogun and round 5 was one of the most dominant rounds ive seen, hendo is one of my hero's but the fight was clearly a draw.
LOL at eliskinner!!!! This guy could be the biggest douche out there. "shogun could of stole the first round with the knockdown"??? If Shoguun won the 1st round, then Rich Franklin stole the 1st round against Anderson Silva.
Round 5 shogun landed 79 strikes to hendo's 4, he obtained the mounted position 6 times and spent over 4 and a half minutes on top of henderson pounding him, if thats not a 10-8 i have no idea what is.
well 78 of those 79 strikes were pitter pat James Thompson hitting Kimbo strikes. Shogun looked like he had a Halloween mask on after Round 3. NUTHUGGER!
God damn, people can't think for themselves. As soon as Dana says it, people conjur up these absurd ways to argue so they can agree with him.
You view just the Highlights of the fight?
I lean towards the idea of it being a draw but saying Shogun got the mount 6 times doesnt help that case. That means he lost it 5 times, i.e. Henderson was defending in some capacity that could justify the 10-9. Obviously not defending very well though lol
Everybody yacking about a 10-8 5th rd for Shogun need to remermber the first three rounds! The ref was close to stepping in more than once.A very strong case could be made that Henderson deserved two 10-8 rds. He beat the (crap) outta shogun in the first three rounds. I had Hendersoin winning by 2 points, 3 to 2 with both recieving a 10-8 rd. It was an epic fight and It sucks to see either of them lose considering the quality of the fight, But, Henderson won and thats the bottom line.
excuse me, I hasd the 4th round pretty close to even and I gave henderson 2 10-8 rds.
Mma weekly should take some responsibility for starting all this crap too. They printed an article about Dana and censered a lot of what he said. Dana also said after he had it a draw, 'who the hell am I '. He is nothing more than a fan as far as scoring goes. I don't like when someone's words are taken out of context. Dan won and let's just move on to the next fight. By the way, I thought Ali beat Ken Norton in their first fight !
This is true, Dana is just a fan when it comes to scoring the fights. He's also a fan with a lot of insider knowledge and experience, and most other fans tend to put a lot of stock in what he says. No more, no less.
Adding "who the hell am I" after a 5 minute declaration of wrong judging is supposed to make the entire statement less serious?
wow rubekegal, you expressed enough ignorance that your opinions are jokes! lol, but since your allowed then go ahead, but you sound stupid. If it were streets then alot would not go down the way it does in alot of mma fights, but the subject at hand is shogun vs dan. cardio was on shoguns side and he survived the initial onslaught, therefore the final round and beyond would have went to shogun. not saying dan didnt win this ufc fight. shoguns fifth round was clearly what a 10-8 round is, but not rounds 1-3 for dan, shogun had moments in each of those round moron.
longtime fan, get your head out of your anus toughguy. The final round went to Shogun, but who are you to say beyond would have gone to him as well? UFC fights are 5 round fights, Shogun lost this fight, plain and simple. Round 3 Shogun had Dan in a potential heel hook for all of 6 seconds. He got obliterated the rest of the round. You have some white substance on your chin. Oh there is Shogun pulling his pants up. Clearly youre a longtime fan with little knowledge.
Come on guys, this is definitely a topic for great debate, but let's keep it about the fight and the arguments about the decision not about slamming each other. You may not agree with someone's opinion or their knowledge behind it, but it doesn't have to come to personal attacks. If someone's logic is faulty, back up why with facts… no need to attack each other.
This entire forum has become one big argument lately!
I honestly don't mind the arguing. Great debates bring about a lot of great thought. Let's just keep it to debating and arguing, not childish name calling and bashing.
Shut up BigGuy, lol naa I'm just kidding brother. Your right, it has, but its great that there's spirited debate going on here. It means we give a ****. I do think some of you should do what Kens says and show some class and formulate your positions without slinging mud at one another. We all have something in common. Although we may disagree with one another I'm willing to bet that if we all were at a bar or pub for the UK lads, we would probably be amped up yelling at the tv and throwing a couple cold ones down.
@ sb! I agree with your comments (except the part where you tell me to shut up…LOL!!!!)
I kinda like that Dana voiced his opinion. I know it's not fair, but I gave Hendo a slight edge in this one just for smashing Bisping's face! Hope Mayhem does the same!
Sort of a carry-over bonus
Why is it every time ShoGun fights and loses, he got robbed? If he would have won the fight, there would n't have been any problem, but when he loses, he has to say he won or it was a draw. Well, he isn't the judge. No, he is the fighter, so he should have fought and won, instead of losing the fight only to complain about it. Of course, Dana (Shogun's right hand advocate) has to feed into Shogun's ear and say it was a draw. He couldn't tell him he won, though. Hendo beat him and the last round was not 10-8, was it? Never leave it in the hands of the judges. We all know that, so stop whining. "I want revenge."
you see fingerssfv, thats what Shogun fans do and it's beyond pathetic. I had someone at work today try to tell me how Shogun won this fight, and I verbally castrated his every argument and challenged him to sit down and rewatch the fight with me where he immediately declined.
I'm a huge Mayhem Miller fan, but i'm not going around saying he got robbed vs St. Pierre or that he really beat Shields as much as I wanted him to win. Shogun fans are weird like that though.

Learn More About Working at CBO and the Agency's Career Opportunities
July 15, 2009
YesterdayCBO released a brief that analyzes intergovernmental issues in the context of The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA). UMRA focuses attention on federal requirements imposed on state, local, and tribal governments and the private sector that are not conditions for receiving federal aid. The law specifies which types of requirements should or should not be considered mandates, establishes procedures that govern Congressional consideration of such mandates, and directs CBO to estimate the costs of mandates. UMRAs goal is to promote informed decisionmaking by the Congress as it considers questions about the appropriateness of federal mandates and about the desirability of providing financial assistance to cover the costs of thosemandates. Because UMRA applies additional procedural hurdles for legislation that imposes requirements on public entities, this brief focuses specifically on intergovernmental mandates.
There are often questions about which bills are covered by UMRA and about how the law defines an intergovernmental mandate. UMRAs application is limited in three ways:
- It does not apply to the broad policy areas of national security or constitutional rights (including voting rights) or to some segments of the Social Security program.
- In most cases, it does not consider new conditions related to federal grant programs to be mandates.
- It focuses on mandates with costs above a thresholdoriginally set at $50 million, and adjusted annually for inflation so it is now $69 million.
Most legislation that the Congress has considered since 1996 has contained no intergovernmental mandates as UMRA defines them. Only 13 percent of the more than 7,600 bills and other legislative proposals CBO reviewed between 1996 and 2008 (most as they were reported out of committee) contained such mandates. Less than 9 percent of those mandates would have imposed costs above UMRAs threshold. Only eleven bills with estimated costs over the threshold have become law since 1996. Those include increases to the minimum wage, preemptions of state taxing authority, requirements on commuter railroads and transit authorities, reductions in funding for some entitlement programs, and new standards for issuing drivers licenses.
This brief was written by Leo Lex in the Budget Analysis Division. In his spare time Leo enjoys photography, gardening, and recently, glassblowing (but not in the heat of summer).

Mustachioed Will Ferrell makes an appearance at the Final Four

It's certainly possible that Ferrell mistook O'Neil for Veronica Corningstone, and is on the verge of breaking out the jazz flute for halftime entertainment.
More likely is that Ferrell used his celebrity connections to get tix to the hottest event in America right now. And, given that he's wearing the Channel 4 logo on his warmup jacket, perhaps he's doing a little guerrilla promotion for the much-anticipated Anchorman 2 movie.

Top picks 2012: Fortuna Silver Mines
As production ramps up in Mexico, this miner offers investors an opportunity to profit from rising silver prices.
By Tyler Laundon, Small Cap Investor
The Fed's move in early December to essentially backstop the entire global financial system by becoming the lender of last resort is bullish for precious metals over the long term. My favorite way to play this trend is to purchase emerging gold and silver producers. Accordingly, my favorite stock for 2012 is Fortuna Silver Mines (FSM).
The catalyst I've been expecting to move this stock higher is the opening of the company's second major mine -- the San Jose Mine in the silver-rich Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico. Silver production began there on Sept. 1.
The company's first flagship mine, Caylloma, is located in Peru. It purchased Caylloma in 2005, upgraded the plant, and increased production by 150%. Looking at both mines in the third quarter of 2011, silver production was up by 40% to 660,749 ounces compared to the third quarter of 2010. Most came from Caylloma.
With the average price of silver at $35.16 per ounce, Fortuna's revenues rose 80% in the third quarter. Net income was $10.31 million, a huge improvement over a loss of $770,000 the previous year, and operating income surged to $14.89 million from $1.03 million. The company now sits on $62.73 million in cash.
Fortuna plans to produce 2.75 million ounces from the San Jose mine in 2012. At last year's average silver price, this would be worth around $100 million for the company. Revenues could more than double over the year, just based on current production plans and stable silver prices. The bottom line is that Fortuna's production growth from the San Jose mine gives investors excellent exposure to silver prices.
Long term, I expect this stock has the potential to double or more as forecast production comes on line. We're seeing the glory days for silver production in Mexico, and I think we can expect great things to come from Fortuna. (Full disclosure: Tyler Laundon owns shares of Fortuna Silver Mines.)

I have a little bit of anecdotal advice. I had been pumping for more than 10 months when my left nipple started cracking and then bleeding. I tried lanolin, vaseline, coconut oil, and other types of lotion, and while they made it less painful, they didn't heal my skin. The nipple was bright red and sometimes itchy. I tried to be gentle on that side, and that resulted in getting mastitis. Ugh. I went on antibiotics for 10 days, and my skin went back to normal and the cracks healed within just a few days. I was also doing salt water soaks after each pumping session (3/day). Now that I'm off the antibiotic, it's starting to crack again a bit. I had thought it might be thrush, but my OB/GYN didn't think it was, and clearing up on the antibiotic makes me think that something else is going on. I'm tempted to try an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin. I think it's an ingredient in the homemade version of the all-purpose nipple ointment that some people recommend. So, maybe something you can try!
|Wed, 10-03-2012 - 5:48pm
You should try lanolin. You can also use olive oil to moist your flanges so the hard rubbing is not so tough on you. If you can't afford formula, you should know that if there is any WIC places near you, they will be able to provide formula for you free of charge if you qualify. With my first baby I was unemployed, and wasn't able to latch her, or even pump because my nipples were ripping out and bleeding so I couldn't even pump anymore, and WIC was able to help me with the formula, and even milk after the 1 year mark. As long as you qualify, they will help you out with formula, baby food, fruit juice and cereal until the baby is 6 years old.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - Wisconsin Democrats will hold a news conference Thursday to explain how they'll try to overcome an apparent Republican advantage in the state's elections for 2014.
Graeme Zielinski of the State Democratic Party says his group will work harder to win Assembly and Senate contests next time.
He said the party will spend a half-million dollars to hire political directors in the Eau Claire, La Crosse, and Fox Valley regions. And they'll try to change what happened in November – when Democrats won the statewide votes for president and U.S. Senate, but Republicans won control of the Legislature after loading enough districts with their own voters through the redistricting process.
Zielinski called it gerrymandering. A panel of three federal judges said the GOP did meet the constitutional requirement for drawing districts with relatively equal populations – but the judges criticized the secrecy of the process, and said Republicans tried to hide the way the maps were drawn.
Most of it came out through a series of judicial orders – but Democrats and others are still having databases checked to see if anything else is under wraps.

Types Of Personal Injury Cases
Accidents happen and when they are not your fault, you will want those responsible with it to pay what they owe you. There are multiple types of accidents out there and in most of the cases you will be entitled for compensation if the fault was not yours. However, do bear in mind the fact that in most of the cases you will need to hire a specialized trucking accident attorney for your particular case. This way, you can be absolutely certain that you are properly defended in court and that those responsible with your injury will actually pay you what they owe you with.
One of the most frequently encountered personal injury cases is when there is a car accident. Sadly, these are very common out there and sometimes the fault belongs to one of the drivers only. Paying for the medical expenses and for all the other expenses associated with such an injury should not be placed on the victim though and there are car accident attorneys specialized in this kind of situations.
Furthermore, another type of common personal injuries occurs as a result of a trucking accident. These accidents are somewhat similar to the car accidents mentioned above, but besides the at-fault driver and the victim driver, there will also be a trucking company in the middle which may interfere with the course of action that has to be taken in such cases. Even more, sometimes the trucking company itself is the one to be blamed for the accident because they did not make the necessary checks and repairs on the truck they have given their driver to deal with. To make sure that you are actually defended in court when this happens, you should make sure to hire a truck accident injury lawyer. These people are specialized particularly in trucking accidents and in all the issues related to them (including dealing with the trucking company, for example).
There are other types of personal injury cases as well. For instance, the slip and fall accidents are also quite common out there and when the supermarket or the owner of a particular portion on which you slipped and fell are to be blamed, you are entitled to seek justice in court. Also, boating accidents are quite common as well.
If you have been involved in a trucking accident and you want to hire a truck accident injury lawyer, then do make sure to check with their website. You will find everything you need to know there.

Madison County Sheriff's investigators searched the waters of the Flint River off Winchester Road Friday afternoon.
Sources close to the investigation said they were looking for evidence in connection with seven murders in Tennessee and Alabama. Neighbors in the area said investigators have searched the area a handful of times since the murders in October.
WAFF's crew on the scene witnessed investigators pull something from the water earlier Friday morning.
Investigators used long sticks and paddles to search the water throughout the day.
The investigation into the murders started last month when Lincoln County investigators found the bodies of 22-year-old Chabreya Campbell, her unborn child, her 18-month-old son Rashad Ragland, and 21-year-old Amber Mccaulley at a home in Tennessee.
Just a few hours later, officers found the body of 21-year-old Jessica Brown.
The next night, Jeffrey Pope was shot to death in Huntsville. The next morning, utility workers found the body of Warren Crutcher in a wooded area in Hazel Green.
Investigators said all the murders are connected. No charges have been made in the case.

Hey it's Alexis, I posted this first on FanFiction.Net and i just thought i should post it on here and see what i get. Sorry if there are any mistakes.
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or unfortunatly Taylor Lautner...*sigh* I also don't own the songs Enchanted or Sparks Fly by Taylor Swift.
Here I am again, forcing laughter, faking smiles, the same old tired, lonely place. My walls of insincerity, shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw his face. All I can say is it was enchanting to see him. His eyes whispered "have we met?" Across the room his silhouette starts to make its way to me.
"Hey, I'm Edward." The beautiful stranger said to me. Edward. What a nice, original name, not many Edwards anymore.
His eyes were the brightest green I've ever seen in my life. His hair, my gosh, his hair, it was like a perfect mess of bronze. He was gorgeous, his blue shirt was tight and you could see his abs. He had great abs, the kind that you could touch and stare at all day, and it would never get old. He was wearing low-rise dark jeans and blue sneakers.
"Hi." I said shyly. "I'm Isabella, but I like to be called Bella. You can call me Isabella if you want to, but Bella is what everyone…"
"Bella. You're rambling." His quickly remarks smirking. I blushed.
The playful conversation started.
It was enchanting to meet him. My blush never subsided, I'm wonderstruck. This night was sparkling, I won't let it go. Edward, I'm gonna think about him, forever wondering if he knew I was enchanted to meet him.
I get to my house and get my pajamas on and crawl into bed. But I couldn't get to sleep at all. Lingering questions kept me up. I looked at the clock. 2 am. Edward, who do you love? I'm wondering, still wide awake. I got up out of my bed and went to the bathroom. Charlie is still sleeping. Good, I thought. I went to the sink and splashed water on my face. Damn it, Bella stop thinking about him, my mind screamed at me. I sighed in frustration and went to the kitchen to get something to drink but instead I found myself pacing back and forth by the stove, wishing he was at my door, and when I opened it to let him in, he would say that it was enchanting to meet me to.
I hope this was the first page and not were the story line ends. Edward, my thoughts will echo his name until I see him again. Please don't be in love with someone else. Please don't have somebody waiting on you. Those are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon. I thought about him, his eyes, those glorious green orbs that I swore could see into my soul. His hair, my god, his hair, a beautiful color of bronze that was just a mess. His lips, oh, those luscious lips, I wanted so very badly was just to kiss him. The way he hugged me goodbye as I was leaving, with his big strong arms. I didn't want him to let me go.
Edward, I think I'm in love with you.
I finally was able to go to sleep around 3 in the morning. Gah, I have school tomorrow. I'm going to scream. I got up at 6, defiantly not enough sleep, stupid Edward. I took a shower, feeling the warmth of the water on my skin woke me up a little. I'm still a little tired do to the 3 hours of sleep. I got out and dressed in a blue shirt with a white vest over it. Short jean shorts and slipped on some blue flip-flops. I accessorized with a silver diamond designed bracelet. I snuck a look out side and sighed, it was raining; pouring to be exact. I heard there was going to be a new student at the school. Apparently he just moved from Chicago. I still don't know his name, but I hope that maybe he'll be cute enough to distract me from Edward. Ah, just his name still sends shivers down my spine.
I grabbed my white Coach purse and ran out the door to get into my rusted old red truck. By the time I got to school most of the people were at school already, including my best friend Alice and her boyfriend, Jasper, her bother, Emmett, and our friend and brothers girlfriend, Rosalie.
Alice Cullen is a small pixie-like girl. She has spiky black hair that stops at her chin and at the end points in every direction. She is wearing a black dress that the skirt looks like a black too-too just less severe of a too-too. The top of the dress is like a black corset, but there are four straps and they go in an x formation, the straps on the left side wrap to the right side etcetera, etcetera.
Her boyfriend, Jasper Whitlock, is from Texas. He moved here just 5 years ago and they have been dating for 4 years. He has blonde hair that was kind of long and curly. He has a southern accent, no surprise, and doesn't really talk that much. He's more of the lay-low type, much unlike Alice. That's why their perfect for each other. He is wearing a white button up shirt with a gray vest over it. His blue jeans hung low on his hips paired with his favorite pair of sneakers, white with gray laces.
Alice's brother, Emmett Cullen, was huge. Not huge as in fat, but huge as like bulky, muscles. He had brown short hair and brown eyes. He looks like the kind of guy that uses steroids and is in the gym 24/7, but that is so not true. He's a huge teddy bear. He would never hurt a fly unless they messed with his sister or best friends. He was very protective over Alice and me the most. He was wearing a white short sleeved shirt with a Monster logo on it. His blue jeans are ripped at the knees and he was wearing black sneakers.
Rosalie Hale, Emmett's girlfriend, is more like the girl you'd see in a magazine. Her long blonde hair hung around her shoulders like a golden waterfall. Her bright blue eyes could light a room in a second. Her body was so thin and perfect. She had perfect curves, all in the right places. Just one look at her will make you hate yourself. Every girl envy's her even some guys. She's in all guys fantasies. Emmett is just lucky to have her. She's one of those girls that knows that she is beautiful and perfect, but, thank the lord, she doesn't show it like others do. She wore a blue plaid top with a white tank-top underneath. The first few buttons of the plaid blouse were open showing her bust nice. A blue beaded necklace hung around her neck all the way to just below her bust. She wore skinny blue jeans with light blue heels that strapped around her ankle. Her nails were painted blue as well. She, of course, looked perfect.
Then I saw him. The same guy I've been dreaming of all last night. The new student.
It was him…Edward. The way he moves is like a full on rainstorm and I'm a house of cards. He sees me and smiles. I blank, can he remember me? My gosh I hope so.
"Bella," He said. My heart starts to race. He does remember me. He says my name and I fell in love in an empty parking lot. He comes up and stands there in front of my just close enough to touch, close enough to hope that he couldn't see what I was thinking of. He's kind of reckless and that should send me runnin', but I know I won't get far.
"Edward," I say, finding my voice. "What are you doing here?" He smiles and scoops me up and hugs me so high that my feet go off the ground. I laugh along with him as he sets me down.
"I just moved here two days ago from Chicago." He explained, smiling. I can see sparks fly whenever he smiles. Those green eyes captivated me, I immediately got lost in them.
"Bella, who is this?" Alice asked. I looked at her and then everyone else; I completely forgot that they were here. I jumped out of my daze.
"Oh," I cleared my throat. "This is Edward," I gestured toward Edward. "Edward this is, Alice, Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie." I pointed to them as I said their names. They mumbled their hello's and how do ya do's. Then the warning bell rings indicated that we have five minutes before school starts. Edward grabbed my hand and led me to the school. As we walked to the school I snuck glances at him 'cause my heart is beating fast and he is beautiful, I could wait patiently, but I really wish he would drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain, and kiss me on the sidewalk to take away the pain. Get me with those green eyes as the lights go down inside. I want him to give me something that'll haunt me when he's not around. My mind forgets to remind me he's a bad idea. He touched me once before and it was really something. I'm on my guard for the rest of the world, but with him I know it's no good.
He stops suddenly. I look at him; we were standing by the staircase. I hadn't realized that he lead me here with my day dreaming and my constant looking at him. He turns to face me and pulls me close by my waist. I gasped and blushed at the contact. I ran my fingers through his hair, like I've longed to do since I first saw him. I was surprisingly smooth. It felt like the lights went wild. He needs to keep on keeping his eyes on me, because it's just wrong enough to make it feel right. I want him to whisper soft and slow in my ear. I'm captivated by him like a fireworks show. He leans down and kisses me.
I was slow at first, but it built up to be forceful and needy. He deepened the kiss as his tongue explored my mouth. We battled for dominance, which, of course, he won. He's such a cheater. When we pulled away he whispered into my ear.
"I was enchanted to meet you."

I dont think I would buy this again. Right away it felt to big and it was really wide. I ended up using it for snowboarding and I was really warm. Because of how wide it was, snow got up in there and it was no longer warm. I would think about getting another one before getting this one.
Good hoodie that doesn't lose its shape or fade. Nice and warm but not super heavy.
Not too thick that you can't wear under a jacket, but nice and warm.

My husband loves this showerhead
By Patty & Matt
from Millis, MA
We installed a new bathroom about a year ago, and had the plumber back twice to deal with clogs & poor water pressure. We considered purchasing an all house filter because it was becoming such a problem. This shower head appears to have resolved that for us, the pressure is great and there are no clogging issues thus far. Just what we were looking for, we'll be buying another for our other bathroom.
Great shower nozzle
By Barb
from Lacey, WA
I haven't had it installed long enough to test the "anti clogging" but the spray area & pressure are great.

not so great
By faz the under washed

the product is not satisfactory as the presure sounds good but delivery is poor. if connected with a presure pump i am sure it would be good saying this any tap will perfom well if a presure pump is fixed.

And that's the end of Day 3.
A fantastic, quickfire knock from Amla, ably supported at times by du Plessis and de Villiers. The lead is 369 runs, and Amla goes into the sheds seven short of a century. You might wonder if Smith will even let him reach the milestone before declaring tomorrow...surely even the Proteas skipper isn't that cold and calculating?
But really, that's the only point of intrigue because barring some freak weather or a miracle, this series will be tied up at some point in the next two days.
Thanks for following along, feel free to tweet us your thoughts at @SMHSport or myself, @TheMattBungard - goodnight!
de Kock getting in on the act now, he flicks it away to square leg.
Oh goodness me. Another piercing cover drive, Amla into the 90s. What an innings this has been.
Chance! Haddin drops one, but that would have been a screamer. Thick inside edge down the leg side, he dives across and gets a glove to it, but can't haul it in.
The lead has passed 350. There wouldn't be time for Australia to bat today so you would think that a declaration will come at the end of today's play, or within half an hour of the start tomorrow. Either way, the largest fourth innings total Australia have ever posted against South Africa is 339 so you'd be looking at a record chase already.
We're about to move into the extra half hour. 16 overs left, not a chance we're getting through all of them.
Got him! Mitch bangs one in short, de Villiers tries to lean back and lift it over the slips, but only succeeds in spooning it straight to Haddin. How far away are we from a declaration?
Another off side boundary for de Villiers! The lead is up to 339. Dire position for Australia.
After a single, A.B slaps it to basically the same spot as Amla did moments ago.
Amla. Gap in the off side field. You can work out the rest.
Another great shot! Amla smokes it through the covers again!
There were premature cries of "Catch!" but de Villiers sweeps that beautifully into the gap. Great shot.
Again that's overpitched from Siddle, Amla slides back and dispatches it through the leg side.
SHOT! and the next ball is just a perfect off drive. de Villiers into double digits.
de Villiers guides that one down to the third man boundary, and the lead is past 300.
The number one batsman in the world strides out to the middle. Not really an ideal situation when you need quick wickets.
Siddle grabs another!! It just straightened a little bit off the bat, didn't do too much. Faf caught an outside edge and another easy catch for Haddin. Australia really need a couple more very quickly!
Amla with a lovely flick to midwicket and that's his 50. Very solid knock.
Faf tiptoes down the pitch and drives back past Lyon! The lead is now past the record 4th inning score at this ground..
HUGE shout for from Harris - nobody else, including Haddin, even moved, let alone appealed for an edge.
Too full from Siddle, Faf flicks that one up to mid on for a boundary.
An absolutely gorgeous shot from Amla. Cover drive which was almost at the boundary the second it left his bat.
Mitch getting knocked around a little bit. He certainly isn't used to this. Four more for Amla.
A pressure-relieving boundary from du Plessis, and that takes the lead past 250.
A much more sombre tone from Australian tweeps this evening...

Alright, we are back underway. Big session for both teams here - if Amla and Faf are still standing at close, a victory is surely beyond Australia's reach. If the Aussies can get through the middle order in quick time, perhaps they're a chance. Let's see.
And that is tea.
Amla with a few nice strokes just before the break, as he and du Plessis will try and steady the ship. A very exciting session though, with four wickets being taken...two for each side.
We'll be back in just a little while.
And this one is smoked through the covers! Another superb shot!
Ah, that's a lovely off drive from Amla. Right out of the screws.
Haddin whips the bails off after Amla reached a Lyon delivery and we're going upstairs. There was a slight hope that Amla had lifted his foot, but the replay sees him with toes firmly planted inside the crease.
Breakthrough!! Siddle persists from around the wicket and gets Elgar fishing!! Easy catch for Haddin and the Proteas are two down!
Lovely cut shot from Elgar to take him to double figures. Not starting as slowly as he did in the first inning!
Big outside edge runs away for Amla's first boundary.
Amla off the mark with a single, avoids a pair.
MITCH GETS HIM AGAIN!!! Big inside edge smashes into the stumps. Smith gone early, care of Johnson! Sound familiar?
Smith gets a big edge, short of the slips but in any case it goes between them and down to the fence.
Johnson charges in for the first ball...and it's whipped off the pads by Smith! not the best start for Australia..
Inning over! Harris gets a big edge to du Plessis in the slips and South Africa lead by 177 runs. We'll be back in just a few minutes for the second South African dig.
Lovely shot from Harris! Another over-pitched delivery is dispatched to the fence. This partnership is now 37!
Siddle whips one off his pads for his first boundary. These two are starting to tack on some very valuable 10th wicket runs..
Shades of Steve Harmison there from Morkel! So far down the leg side it was almost off the pitch...A.B does really well to get a glove to it and allow third man to get across and prevent it from being five wides.
Monstrous from Harris! Short of a length from Philander and he absolutely middles that over the fence at mid wicket - and with that, Australia have avoided the follow on.
Siddle tries to hook that short ball from Morkel, they all go up but it's given not out...again a review. This time they've got it wrong, not near anything aside from perhaps his shirt.
More controversy just moments later!! Siddle ducks under a bouncer from Morkel, nobody bar Dale Steyn seems interested in referring that, but the replay shows it hit him flush on the glove! It could have been inning over!
Second over after lunch!! Smith is initially given not out - there is a review from Graeme Smith and despite a lack of hot spot and barely a noise on snicko, it's been overturned. The Aussie team and Smith look on is disbelief.
Hey everyone, apologies for the delay. Welcome back for the second session.
That's lunch. Johnson's wicket brings a conclusion to a great session for the South Africans who have bowled with venom all morning. Australia lost four wickets - Warner (70) , Lyon (15), Haddin (9) and Johnson (27) - for 93 runs. Australia will start after lunch on 8-205 needing 19 runs to avoid the follow on.
The South Africans will be confident of wrapping up the innings quickly, although may not chose to enforce the follow on after losing Wayne Parnell to a groin injury.
Morkel looked vicious in working over Johnson and picking up the wicket of Lyon, while Steyn, Duminy and Philander took the others in the session. With Smith on 49 not out he will need plenty of fighting support from Peter Siddle and Ryan Harris.
CLEAN BOWLED. Well, Smith maintains his faith in Duminy and the offspinner shows his worth again, clean bowling Johnson for 27. Duminy again got great drift and the ball went straight through the gap as Johnson played for more spin.
Lunch has been called.
Huge appeal is turned down. Morkel unleashes a vicious bouncer that hits Johnson right on his helmet's Australian emblem. The ball balloons up and is taken by keeper A.B. de Villiers. Johnson simply stands his ground and adjust his helmet which has been pushed across his head. Snicko shows the ball hit nothing but helmet, which Johnson replaces before facing the next ball, which predictably is another short one. Morkel is really working over Johnson here.
Johnson picks up a three for Australia to pass 200. Johnson is 26, Smith is 47. Australia 7-202 and needs 22 runs to avoid follow on.
SAf team media manager @leratomalekutu confirms @WayneParnell has suspected groin strain (has suffered prev). Now scans in hospital. #SAvAUS
— Jesse Hogan (@Jesse_Hogan) February 22, 2014
Johnson has taken to Duminy hitting a four and six off consecutive balls. Don't think Graeme Smith can afford to let the big hitting lefty to get into his groove against Duminy for much longer.
South Africa has bowled 20 overs this morning with Australia scoring 72 runs to take the score to 184 and losing three wickets.
Another cover drive from Johnson this time off Steyn.
Nice cover drive by Johnson off Duminy takes Australia to 7-175.
Not the sight Australia wanted to see #SAvAUS pic.twitter.com/5eiTbmeUol
— CA Digital Media (@CricketAus) February 22, 2014
What was left of Haddin's wicket !
J.P. Duminy comes into the attack to replace the injured Parnell with the offspinner getting nice drift in his first over.
CLEAN BOWLED !! Great ball by Steyn cuts back into Haddin and goes straight through the gap and takes middle stump. Haddin is not able repeat his heroics and trudges off with Australia 7-168. Mitchell Johnson is the new batsman.
Huge appeal for LBW against Haddin off Steyn. The South Africans only have one referral up their sleeves so do not go upstairs. Turns out to be correct decision with ball sliding down legside and missing wickets.
Bad news for the South Africans with Wayne Parnell pulling up with what appears to be a leg injury. He left the fields immediately with Dean Elgar finishing the over.
That would have been out if it was a direct hit. Haddin pushed for a second run to fine leg but survived when Steyn's throw narrowly missed a direct hit.
Well that didn't last long. Steyn straightens up too much and Smith drives on the onside again to rack up another boundary.
Steyn draws an edge from Steve Smith that goes passed slips to give him one of the few runs he has scored on the off-side.
This has been a scary sight for the Australian batsmen today, Morne Morkel. Photo: Getty Images
Drinks. Australia limps to the break at 6-157. The South Africans have dropped two catches today, four in this game.
12 chances in 2.5 inns. Absurd. #SAvAUS
— Jesse Hogan (@Jesse_Hogan) February 22, 2014
ANOTHER dropped catch !! This time it was Robin Peterson who dropped an absolute sitter. The South Africans have been attacking Steve Smith's pads and the Australian batsman obliged spooning a lazy flick straight to Peterson, who is on the field for Amla, who dropped a catch earlier in the morning.
Amla has dislocated a finger after that fielding effort. It's being put back into place and he should be fine. #savaus #cricket
— Firdose Moonda (@FirdoseM) February 22, 2014
Another bowling change with Wayne Parnell taking over from Philander who also had a neat spell, claiming Warner's wicket.
Morkel is being given a break after a fantastic opening spell in which he claimed Lyon's wicket. He is replaced by Dale Steyn.
Great cover drive by Steve Smith off Philander. Four runs followed by four more off the next ball, this time all run on the legside.
Morkel keeps the same line to Haddin, but the cagey Haddin ducks under the bouncer without too much hassle.
Morkel is causing Smith problems as he spears short pitched balls from around the wicket into him. Meanwhile, Amla looks in some pain in the dressing rooms.
Another dropped catch !! Hashim Amla reacts too slowly at gully to take a sharp chance off Brad Haddin. The ball flew past him as he stretched over his head to his left. Amla left the ground straight afterwards to get treatment on his hand.
This is more like it for Brad Haddin, 128 for 6. None of that 330 for 5 rubbish of last week. #savaus
— Andrew McGlashan (@andymcg_cricket) February 22, 2014
At 6-133 Scene is perfectly set for another Brad Haddin rescue mission. Can the Aussie wicket keeper be the savior again and help Australia avoid the follow on ?
OUT ! Suddenly Lyon looks like a No.11 again. He moves to the legside for some reason and Morkel follows him. Lyon could only push at the ball and it rebounds straight onto off stump. Australia now in real trouble.
Steve Smith has come to the crease and leg glances two balls in a row. Finishes the over on 8.
CAUGHT! Warner is out slashing wildly at a wide ball from Philander. Edged to first slip Graeme Smith who took a straight forward but tidy catch. Warner only added five to his overnight score to be out for 70. Australia is now 5-120.
Lyon is doing his job of hanging in there and irritating the South Africans with Morkel exchanging a few words with him at the end of the over. No surprises there from the aggressive quick. Australia has moved to 4-120 after the first four overs.
Another appeal against Lyon. This time for caught behind off Morkel. But given not out as ball clearly misses bat and clips his leg on the way through.
Warner faces his Morkel for the first time this morning and confidently drives him to mid-off. Gets a single from the next ball.
LBW appeal against Lyon off Philander. Did not get a lot of support from his teammates and was turned down as it was going down legside.
Nice fiery first up over by Morkel. Lyon gets a run to take Australia 4-117.
Lyon is hit. It did not take Morkel to shake up Lyon with a nasty ball that rose sharply and struck the nightwatchman near the armpit.
Now it's Nathan Lyon's turn to face his first balls of the morning against the pick of the bowlers yesterday Morne Morkel. He very confidently met the first ball on the front foot.
There seems to be no love lost between Warner and Vernon Philander. The South African bowler stuck to a nice tight line in the opening over of the morning, worry Warner with a bit of inswing. Warner scored two off the over to take Australia to 4-116.
Play is just about to begin with David Warner on strike on 65.
Just before play starts, HERE is a wrap of play on day two from Fairfax Media cricket writer Jesse Hogan.
Early wicket ... Australia's batsman Chris Rogers, second from right, leaves the field after dismissed by South Africa's bowler Vernon Philander, left, for 5 runs in Port Elizabeth. Photo: AP Photo
Australia starts day three of the second Test in the awkward position of 4-112, trailing South Africa's first innings by 311. First Test centurion David Warner has again ridden his luck to be not out on 64. He will be re-joined at the crease at the start of the first session by night watchman Nathan Lyon, who is on 12.
The South African bowlers having been the more threatening on the Port Elizabeth strip, with Morne Morkel particularly unlucky, and this session could go a long way to deciding the outcome of this Test, and South Africa's hopes of keeping the series alive.
