NCAA
• Sandra Rocha smashes the ball over the net in a game earlier in the season. The No. 27-ranked Long Beach State women head to USC to play in the NCAA Women’s Tennis Championships Friday. LBSU plays New Mexico at 11 a.m. and USC plays Army at 2 p.m. and the winners of those games will advance to the second round on Sunday. Brandy Baker / Online Forty-Niner



News


 

  • Kidnapping suspect released, charges dropped
    University Police apprehended a man suspected of attempting to kidnap a Cal State Long Beach student May 3 after he was spotted on campus, but county authorities released him less than a day later.


  • Rest, review drive students’ finals success
    Final exams at Cal State Long Beach begin Monday, and students from all levels and majors are beginning to prepare.


  • Sleep should win over studies
    Sleep has somehow become a luxury as students use the late hours of the night to finish schoolwork that did not get done during the day.


  • Game players power up with power leveling services
    Since the development of Atari in the ’70s, hard core video game players have spent countless hours playing video games in an attempt to reach the most difficult and talked about levels. Unfortunately, some never attain their desired levels due to lack of skill or time. In today’s era of technology, players now have an alternative through a new approach called power leveling.

Opinion


  • Our View: Battle hurting memorial, not religion
    San Diego’s Mount Soledad is one of the city’s best vistas. It rests atop a hill with serene views of the county mountains to the east as well as a scenic sight of the seaside city of La Jolla and the Pacific Ocean to the west.


  • Orwell’s literary legacy leaves important lesson
    George Orwell, born Eric Arthur Blair in 1903, was suitably situated both in era and setting to write perhaps the world’s most well known dystopian tale. Born in India, then a colony of his mother country, England, his path as a dissenter, inquisitor and thought evoker was cultivated through his vast life experiences.



  • Mom should make bank, thank her this Sunday
    Just in time for Mother’s Day, a report released May 3 stated if stay-at-home moms were paid for the work they do, their yearly salary would amount to just over $134,000. Similarly, if working mothers received compensation for the work they do at home, they would earn $85,000 in addition to their annual wages.


Diversions



Sports


  • Baseball needs action at the plate
    Pitching a 1-2-3 inning just to get taken out the next inning. Getting my first and only black eye from a ground ball in right field. The double with the bases loaded that got me the game ball.
