FIRST TEAM OFFENSE Cody Blue Wilde Lake, lineman Blue was a standout on both sides of the football for the No. 12 Wildecats (10-3), who advanced to the Class 3A state semifinals. Committed to the University of Maryland, the 6-foot-5, 280-pound senior two-way tackle nearly was immovable. He clogged up running lanes on the defensive front and laid out foes to clear the way for his running backs. Blue, who runs the 40-yard dash in 4.9 seconds and was a three-year starter, opened lanes and cleared out linemen and linebackers with his brute strength.

With Easter comes the ritual of painting eggs in pretty pastels and hiding them for egg hunts.And with that ancient custom comes leftover hard-cooked eggs.It's not hard to detect an egg that's been lying around awhile, says Linda Braun, a spokeswoman for the American Egg Board in Park Ridge, Ill."Eventually you will learn where those eggs are because you will smell them," she says. "When an egg gets old, it loses carbon dioxide and moisture. . . . All that remains are the minerals, including sulfur, which has an odor.

Though a depressant, booze can sometimes make you peppy. And caffeine, that elixir of pep, has no power without the brain's help.Those are just a couple of the myth-busters in "Buzz: The Science and Lore of Alcohol and Caffeine," a new book by science journalist Stephen Braun.Some examples: Women get drunk faster than men not because they are smaller or have different body fat composition but because alcohol-destroying enzymes found in the human stomach lining work better in men than in women.

When Jill Krebs began to think for herself, she became dangerous.The South Carroll sophomore often had leaned on her best friend, teammate Carrie Braun, for cross country strategy. In other words, Krebs simply followed Braun during the race.But in the Central Maryland Conference championship two weeks ago, Krebs had to think for herself when she went out fast early and went ahead of Braun -- who had never lost to a teammate in her career.Krebs analyzed every twist and turn of the course, found a good strategy and beat Braun for the first time -- by 1 minute, 19 seconds.

Confess. You're a closet Real Housewives of New York City fan. I can't tell you how many times the subject of that show has come up at recent soirees. Atlantic Trading Co.'s comptroller, Jan Braun, fully admits to being so into the show that she and sis, DC-ite Jill Bushkoff, hitched a train ride up to the Big Apple recently to see "housewife" Jill Zarin speak at a Friars Club luncheon. Braun says it was a gathering of only about 50 folks, including all the Housewives. Sans one. If you know the show, bet you know who. That's right - Kelly Killoren Bensimon, the newest cast member ... the one none of the others seems to like.

Murder and mayhem were Matt Jablow's bread and butter as a WBAL newsman, Baltimore police spokesman and America's Most Wanted producer. Now he's offering more life-affirming fare as a "Webumentarian." Jablow left America's Most Wanted in July to start a video production company, Frodo Productions, named for a Hobbit. Baltimore's Ronald McDonald House has hired him to make a documentary for its Web site - a "Webumentary," as Jablow put it - on a family it serves. It tells the story of Kevin and Melissa Buckles of Northern Virginia.

Many fantasy baseball title runs received major shots in the arm last season from the call-ups of Ryan Braun and Hunter Pence. Whether you already had these guys stowed on reserve rosters or you scavenged them as soon as they hit the free-agent pool, they were huge contributors from the day they hit the big leagues. The important thing to know going forward is that neither player's excellence surprised savvy owners. In this age of information glut, it's not enough to know every player in the big leagues.

WASHINGTON -- A second American company recalled Heparin products yesterday as China announced that it was clamping down on production of the blood-thinning drug's main ingredient to prevent further cases of contamination. B. Braun Medical Inc. withdrew 23 lots of Heparin products after learning that it had received a contaminated ingredient. The Bethlehem, Pa., company described the recall as precautionary. It said it had not received any reports of side effects, even though the suspect lots have been sold in the United States and Canada.

Ihave never seen a richer stock of third basemen than we have going into this season. Alex Rodriguez is probably the best player in baseball. David Wright is the best young player in the game. Miguel Cabrera is probably the best young hitter. George Brett and Mike Schmidt came up together in the 1970s, but the position couldn't claim nearly the same depth of hitting talent in those years. That's all a way of saying this is a fun group to write about as I work my way through the positional previews.

Sometime after school this afternoon, in a scene likely repeated in thousands of high school gyms around the country, Jeff Braun will sit down at a table and make the biggest decision of his life to this point. Braun, a Winters Mill offensive lineman, will sign a national letter of intent, finalizing a decision he made in November 2006: to attend and play football for West Virginia. For Braun, who knows without a shadow of doubt where he wants to go to college, today's signing makes perfect sense.

Jeff Braun lets out a long, deep breath as he drops a massive barbell to the weight room floor. The Winters Mill offensive lineman is dripping sweat and approaching exhaustion as he finishes a typical weightlifting routine. Football season is over, but the hard work is just beginning for the 6-foot-5, 320-pound senior. Braun has accepted a full football scholarship to West Virginia and realizes he will need to train harder and get stronger to compete on the Division I level. Along with the weight training, he'll have to eat more to maintain the enormous size that college coaches crave on the offensive line.
