Morgan wary of 'big danger' Taylor
England may secretly spare a thought for their embattled hosts as they fine-tune preparations for the first of three matches in each international format against New Zealand.
- Related Content
It was only last summer that they had to take the field overshadowed by intrigue and aggravation surrounding Kevin Pietersen's uncertain international future, against South Africa for the Lord's Test and then for the defence of their World Twenty20 title in Sri Lanka.
Those problems appear long behind England now, with Pietersen due here at the end of this month for the start of the Test series on the back of his triumphant return in India.
New Zealand, instead, are grappling with their own variant of a Pietersen-style controversy.
Former captain Ross Taylor took his first tentative steps back into the fold on Thursday, in the Eden Park nets, having been picked to face England in both limited-overs formats.
The 28-year-old's return follows his decision to sit out New Zealand's tour of South Africa, after coach Mike Hesson made it clear he no longer wanted him as captain and much preferred Brendon McCullum.
Taylor therefore had to spend seven minutes after practice at Eden Park, venue on Saturday for the first of three Twenty20s against England, insisting he and Hesson in particular are back on an even keel.
For his near opposite number in the England team, a breakdown of relations such as that depicted between Hesson and Taylor is unthinkable.
Eoin Morgan will be thankful if he never finds himself anywhere near such an unenviable situation.
"I think I'd find it difficult if I didn't get along with the coach," said the Irishman.
"You spend a lot of time with each other, and your coach is normally someone you seek advice from.
"For me, it would be crucial to get along with my coach."
Fortunately for Morgan, life is currently following a happier and simpler path.
He would like to have fared better with the bat during England's 3-2 one-day international defeat in India last month; ideally, he would also have preferred a second successive victory over a New Zealand XI, rather than the narrow defeat the tourists suffered in Whangarei in their final warm-up match yesterday.
On the other hand, Morgan's last three Twenty20 innings for his country have brought him scores of 49, 48 and 51 - without being dismissed - in his specialist middle-order position. He is feeling so at home there, in fact, as to lay public claim to a degree of longevity.
"I'm quite happy where I am. The role I play I think I've done really well since I've come into the team.
"From here onwards, that's the position I think I've sort of made my own and can win games for England batting there."
Morgan cannot be quite so sure about his ODI future. Indeed, with the rested Jonathan Trott set to be back at number three and Joe Root staking the most pressing claim among England's emerging 50-over players, a few more handy Twenty20 scores will not go amiss against New Zealand.
"I always feel the need to perform, especially with the very successful England side we have," Morgan said.
"You always feel under pressure for your place.
"Guys like Jos (Buttler) and Joe have come in and played fantastically well.
"Having practised and played with them for the last six months, it's great to see them getting out there on the big stage and performing."
They and Morgan can approach the forthcoming series with a spring in their step and clear minds.
- Profiles
Taylor, however, is unlikely to have either of those luxuries.
Instead, he is facing a barrage of tricky questions.
Do you have any regrets?
"Not really."
Will your game be affected?
"Until I play, I won't know."
Given the chance the destructive batsman was still able to put a positive spin on events.
"I always enjoy representing my country, and hope I can do that with some pride over the next six weeks of this tour," he said.
"I've got friends in the team and I'm looking forward to playing for them, and obviously the management and the country as well.
"I can't speak for anyone else; I can only say what I see myself, and I haven't seen anything untoward towards me.
"I've just been acting like my normal self, so I don't think there's anything there."
New Zealand need Taylor, of course, as much as he needs them - and he insists he is prepared to do as he is told for the common good.
"I'll bat wherever I'm put, and sit wherever I'm sat," he added.
"I just want to be out there and play some cricket. I don't know how good I'll be, but I'll give it my best."
He will do so with a little wishful thinking thrown in as well.
"I hope I can just go out there and enjoy myself.
"You've just got to get on with it. It is what it is. I'm sure come Saturday it will be forgotten."

MICHIGAN -- This started the middle of July 2016. I have called Ford consumer affairs dept. for the past five months with absolutely no help on getting the passenger side airbag replaced that "can cause death or serious injury if deployed". I have been getting the same runaround with the answer the chance of death is remote. My answer is "REALLY". So if it does happen then what? Can't sell the car, can't have a passenger.
Had a Honda CRV, same problem. 30 days from airbag recall notification airbag was replaced plus prior to airbag replacement was given a rental car at no charge for the 30 days. Was advised by Honda not to drive the CRV until airbag was replaced. I asked Ford customer service what happens if someone dies. Not much of an answer was given. Still waiting for airbag.
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- I leased a vehicle through Ford in 2005 - This would be my 2nd vehicle with Ford. I have excellent credit. NEVER paid late. They always received their $430.00 every month. Mind you the payment was $429. and some change. I decided this year not to renew my lease with Ford. My first reason - they send these letters, you know, come out of your lease early, they get you in the dealership and tacks the months that they claim they are paying off in your new lease. Well this is not helping me! Plus the fact their cars are just plain janes.
I decided to go with Hyundai and I must say I choose the Veracruz Limited fully loaded same price as my ford and guess what! A 2 year lease! I left my vehicle with Hyundai. I was told they could turn it in. I would get a lease bill at the end, which I did. In the mean time I owed for 3 payments. I had just paid 1 payment of $430.00 on the 22nd of Feb which was actually my normal payment. I got the new car on the 23rd and I made a payment to Ford on the 4 of March for the remainder which was like $1298.00. End of story.
In the mean time I went on their site and was locked out of my account, could not make any payments with them or see anything. Thank God I made the $1298 payment when I did before they locked my account. I set that up electronically with FORD and it was taken out of my bank account. I kept getting calls that they did not get the $1298.00 finally after the 3rd day. I had to call and was notified that they received my money.
Well guess what Ford decides to make changes to my credit to read Termination lease early and still had the balance of 1298 out there. Which to me look like I ended the lease and owes them $1298 (even though I paid this). This change to my credit was made on 3/5. I called them and they told me because I ended my lease 3 months early my lease was to end in July - they had to make the change.
OK when I got the lease in 2005 with Ford, I got that lease 6 months early, nothing happened to my credit. Could it be because I went from a FORD to a FORD or now because I went from a FORD to a HYUNDAI and someone got their tail in a spin! This even gets better. I got the review from the lease. This is where they go over your vehicle very good.
Now I was told turn in the vehicle, let them look it over and anything you owe you have 30 days to pay. I got the letter (mind you all this I can back up). The car was in normal wear and tear condition. Over mileage was 294.00 which this include 36 dollars and something cents in tax fees. I was told I had 30 days to pay. I received this letter on 3/14/08. I am not being called at home 3/11 by Ford about the 294 even though the letter clearly states 30 days to pay. I have paid these people faithfully for 3 years. 294.00 is not going to ruin my credit! But you can best believe this! THEY HAVE LOST ME FOR LIFE. I AM DONE WITH THEM!
Now I know why they will eventually go out of business. Now I know why Hyundai, Toyota, and even Kia does better than them. I am done with them! My concern is not about who sold more cars, however putting out a better product to me is a better in the long run, and as a consumer HOW I AM TREATED!!!! I always went with ford because a sister in law of mine was a big wig in Philly then in Detroit. That why I ended up leasing with them all the time.
My point is If you don't continue with them you lose out.. I paid every cent, terminated early, so what? I should have kept the vehicle the additional 3 months. It is called lease termination yes, but PAID IN FULL not lease termination owing 1298.00. That is my point!! I might as well parked the car in my driveway.
At least I thought I was doing the appropriate thing. It is not about having facts right. It is about the customer and treating the customer right so you can come back. Why I want to tack 3 or 2 months let alone 1 year worth of payments on to the next lease and pay them interest.. That don't make sense to me. I wanted to pay what I owed and be done. I appreciate the responses!
MESA (PHOENIX AREA), FLORIDA -- On March 7, 2007, I took my 1993 Ford Probe into the Berge Ford Service Department in Mesa, Arizona to have the leaking valve cover gaskets replaced, and to get my recently refurbished air conditioning system functioning again. The written estimate I received for this work was $608. On March 14, I picked up the car and the billed amount was for $2713.79 (more than the car is worth).
The Service Advisor had called me the day after I left the car to tell me that the A/C compressor needed replacing (it had already been replaced 20,000 miles ago when the system was converted to the newer R138 refrigerant from R12). He said the cost for a rebuilt compressor would be $540. In fact, without any further notice until I picked up the car one week later, I was charged $914 for this part plus another $148 for a new accumulator. (I had authorized the $688 additional quoted cost, but when I picked up the car I was stunned to find that the cost for the A/C work came to $1154.)
The Service Advisor had also recommended the replacement of the (expensive) spark plug wires, which he informed me were oil-soaked. I knew that the long internal plastic/ceramic spark plug connectors were impermeable to any such soaking and declined that part of the job.
The Service Advisor also used scare tactics to try to get me to authorize CV shaft replacement because of the loss of one CV joint grease boot (he said my wheel would fall off while driving). His quoted cost to replace both of these CV half-shafts was $1700. I declined, and had this exact replacement work done (with new shafts) at another shop (Network Alignment in Mesa) the following week for a total cost of $413. The Berge Ford service department wanted to charge me four times the cost that the other shop charged me for this work.
Included in my final bill was a water pump and drive belt replacement (which I had verbally authorized on the telephone). But the mechanic broke several parts when working on the engine -- including a listed vacuum selenoid pack which he reportedly replaced. But when I picked up the car the ABS (antilock braking system) warning light was lit-up on the dashboard -- which was not illuminated when I left the car with the dealer.
Because it was obvious that the mechanic did something to the ABS control system module while working near it in the engine compartment, I asked to have this fixed at no charge, was refused, and so asked speak with the Service Manager. Both the Service Manager and Advisor refused to even look into the problem that their mechanic caused unless I paid an additional fee to find the cause. I refused -- not wishing to repeat my earlier mistake of trusting these people. Now I am driving a car with a potentially serious safety flaw which this Ford dealer service department caused.
I have been a loyal Ford customer for more than 50 years, but never before have felt so blatantly cheated by greedy businessmen. As a consequence I have sworn to sell our two Fords (we also own a recent model Ford truck) and never again buy a Ford vehicle or patronize one of their dealers.
BUFFALO, MINNESOTA -- I am a loyal Ford man and so is my family. Lately my trucks have been worthless and Ford will not stand behind their workmanship. I bought 2 Black f 350 trucks in 2002. Right away I had paint peel on my drivers door on the Ext. cab. Ford painted it and told me that it was just that door and the rest of the truck would be fine.
After the warranty was up, my paint started peeling on the passenger door. Ford would not stand behind it so I got rid of the truck. My other 2002 Regular cab showed signs of peeling at 24,695 miles. The whole truck needed to be painted. Because I was past three years, they would not repair it. After fighting with them for a few months, they said they would paint it but I had to pay $700. What do you do? So they painted it and I paid them $700.
Now the truck has 50,000 miles and the tranny goes out. Ford still will not help me. So out of my pocket goes $3000. Now the oil pan has rusted out on my 7.3 diesel engine. I am past the 5 year 100,000 mile warranty. I asked the dealer if they would call and check with Ford to see if they would help. He said he knew that Ford wouldn't do anything so he wouldn't even bother calling them. They want $2100 to replace the oil pan. This is a joke. It is costing me a fortune to keep this thing running.
I have never had an oil pan rust out on anything in my life. I drive a 1987 ford ranger with everything original and it runs like a top. My dad has a 1986 F150 with all original equipment and it runs awesome to. Why can't they build this stuff better or stand behind the workmanship?
I leased a 2009 Ford Flex. Everything was fine and no late payments were made. In October 2009 I became totally disabled but still made my payments. In March of 2010 I called Ford Credit and asked for a three month payment deferral to be paid at the end of the lease. They informed me a two month extension was available but stated that to qualify for relief from April and may payments I would need to make a payment [go figure]. The cost of the extension would be an additional 221$, and they would put two payments on the end of the lease. Cost of two payments? 700$ .Cost of extension? 551$. They know how to get you when you're down.
I eventually fell two payments behind and the phone calls became incessant. Very much not the Ford your father owned. Finally in 2011 I started to get back on my feet. I sent them 800$ to cover that years apr-may payment. A month later I sent them 1400$ to cover June-July payments plus 166$ late fees plus 221$ extension fee. What they did against my request was made payments through September leaving late fees to accrue and non-payment of extension to damage my credit with them.
Now if I want to lease from them again in six months OR buy out in six months my interest rate with either will be prohibitive. I just got off the phone with Ford Credit and after about 1 hour and two different, no three different agents, the first one hung up. I was dragged around in a circle with them telling me what I should have done and me telling them that was what I was trying to do and them telling me IF I had done what I was trying to do we wouldn't have a problem.
Keep in mind the reason they paid two payments forward was to protect me from missing payments that were not due yet. Sept.2011 my statement declared no payment was due and currently there were no charges on my account. Now today my Oct. statement arrived with the payment plus 166$ in late fees and 221$ in ext fees.
What Ford Credit will do is once they realize you are a repeat lessor they will systematically manipulate your billing to damage your credit, incur late fees and have you believe it is your fault. Don't believe it. It's not you. At the end of my phone conversation I asked ** to stop talking about it, I had a solution. I would simply return my Ford Flex at term and not buy from Ford anymore. That won't be too difficult. By the way, my Lincoln was built in Mexico and most of my Flex was built in Canada.
Ford was able to QUICKLY bury media reports of a court case that they lost in 2001. The court disposition was that Ford was to reimburse current AND FORMER Ford owners, whose cars had DOCUMENTED repairs related to this problem. It was an ignition module, that failed when hot, and left NO diagnostic clue in the car's computer. That in itself was a free ticket to the dealers to clean out your wallet. I had one of these vehicles - a 1995 Ford. I had ALL records for failed repairs, etc., etc., etc. Total losses to me were almost $3,000, DOCUMENTED.
Ford played dumb, and one day I heard about the court case closing, and they lost. By the time I got home, Ford already had the story off of the National Public Radio website, which carries stories for at least until the next day. I had to go to the radio station to get the press release. Ford still played dumb, all the way to corporate offices. "What court case?" they said? I took my business-vehicle Ford to the dealer, left it, told them about the failed part, and the court case. I went to the Chevy dealer and bought a new Chevy. A week later, I picked up my Ford. The next day, it broke down.
I wrote Ford Motor Credit, and said to come get my Ford - no more payments for you, with breach of contract. 3 months later, they came to get it, and entered a INVOLUNTARY repossession on my credit record. If they had had a case, it WOULD have been VOLUNTARY repo, but that didn't matter to them. They had no case anyway, since they had LOST the court case!!! And they went through my dad to find me, even tho' I told them where to get it. They shouldn't have done that, because I then told my dad why his Ford-equipped motor home shut down when hot.
Wall Street said this might bring Ford to its' end. It was supposed to really hurt them. Fortunately for them, the web was in its' infancy, and 'viral' stuff didn't happen like it does now. Supposedly, you were to get $186 if you had any records for this problem (I have LOTS more). I don't know if that applied only to CA residents tho'. Supposedly, law firms in 5 other stated are (were) assembling the same case against Ford, pending a federal case. Google 'TFI Settlement'. Do you have any receipts for service on Ford vehicles???
I owe two ford explorer's. One is a 01' model and the other is a 05' model. Both have the 4.0 motors. Not two long ago the belt on the 05' started to make some squalling noise. So being a little knowledgeable about car's. I bought a new serpentine belt & replaced it. The new belt did quiet it some but did not get rid of the noise. So the next step was to call a friend of mine that works for ford (In the service dept.) and ask him what he thought. He told me that the Harmonic Balancer pulley was defective. He began to explain that the center of the pulley is made of plastic and the outer ring is metal.
Over time the metal separates from the plastic and the serpentine belt would slip down on to the plastic part of the pulley and the metal ring slides back closer to the motor. So I asked sense this is a defective product ford would fix it at no cost to me. NO was the response. So my next question was how much is it going to cost. 550.00 dollars. So then I told him I would have to wait to get it fixed b/c I do not have that kind of money. He then told me not to drive it until it was fixed b/c they had a ford ranger with the same type of motor and that the pulley came off and went through the radiator, & it cost him over 1300.00 dollars to fix it.
So I paid, but not before I called ford to ask them about the problem with all of the 4.0 motor's. They said it was the first that they had heard about the problem,& they were not responsible. So then I called six different dealership in the area and asked them if they have been fixing any problems like mine. Every one of them said that they were fixing at least two a week and that it was all of the 4.0L. That sounds like it should be a recall to me. What do you think. I hope this will help some people decide not to buy a FORD.
Ever since I can remember my Dad has had a Ford. Growing up it was always Mustangs, and Power strokes in my family.. As a matter of fact my first truck was a hand me down '97 Powerstroke, and I absolutely loved it. A few years ago my Dad started saving money to buy a new Ford truck. It took several years, but he finally saved up enough money to get the truck he wanted.
He bought a 2008 Ford F-450 for around 60K. Needless to say he was very happy that he had finally achieved his goal of buying the new truck of his dreams. That was fairly short lived when he found out that it gets about 10 miles to the gallon highway, and around 6 MPG while pulling a trailer.
Also, while pulling an empty trailer on a two hour highway drive a horrible sound started coming from the transmission housing area, then a over heating warning came up on the screen. When returning with a loaded trailer we went 50 MPH all the way home out of fear that the thing was about to blow up!!!! The next hit was the electrical problems.. At 25,000 miles one of the blinkers went out, then it started beeping every time you hit the brakes because "Trailer Brake Fault" when we weren't even pulling a trailer!!!
All of this has happened in the last two months with 27,000 miles on the truck. It has become a weekly chore to take the truck to the local Ford shop, and try to get them to fix the problems. When I took the truck in for the Transmission noise the guy at the Ford shop told me "Oh, yeah these 450's have a lot of gear noise.. That's normal, when they get hot" and they did not fix anything!!! The 20 plus years that my Father has been loyal, and bragging about Ford have now come to an end because of the overall disappointment with the vehicle, and the service that Ford has provided.
I have a 2006 F550 Diesel w/ 26K miles and 5 months out of warranty. Brought it to dealer and was told the fuel tank was delaminating from the diesel we were using. Needs new pump, fuel lines, injectors blown out and cleaned..$2500. We have been using the same 2 stations for 10 years and have 2 other, older Ford trucks and no problems. This truck is only 3 years old.
I called Ford and they said they knew of it happening on trucks and blame it on the fueling stations. (Like we all fuel up at the same place) But it was up to the dealer to credit or not credit the repair. Very rude people on the phone at complaint department. When I asked to speak to a supervisor I was told, "This is as far as you will get on this call." Ford Motor Corp will do nothing. My dealer took off $800 for the $2500 repair, but it is not his fault. His dealership did not build the trucks. I was told that it has been happening so much that if he was to fix everyone at no charge he would be out of business. This is clearly a defect and safety issue and FORD will not acknowledge it.
I was driving at 40mph w/ a trailer when my truck bogged and died and would not start. There was no shoulder to pull over on. I had to get another truck to move trailer then to move truck. Traffic was backed up for a mile. It is a Safety issue and everyone needs to contact the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) http://www.nhtsa/. dot.gov/ and call up to file a complaint. The phone # is (888) 327-4236. These are the people who would make Ford recall the tanks due to a safety problem.
ST PAUL, MINNESOTA -- I should have known better than to buy another one of your wretched vehicles! I was burnt on the previous bucket of bolts (2001 Ford Explorer) you turned out of the assembly line and dared to call a vehicle. I thought maybe I would give you another chance. So I replaced it with another one of your products called the ford free star. I actually bought this car off of a Nissan Dealership. I was just over the my previous ford inflicted injury (Transmission failure ie $2300) when the dealer showed me my new 2004 Ford Freestar. I of course bought it reluctantly anticipating catastrophic failure! When It didn't actually come I was quite surprised.
It has actually held up well so far. I thought maybe this is the one! That is until I washed it and found that the paint on my roof is peeling away from the top. I plan on calling Ford to see what they can do about this. But from reading hundreds of other posts it does not sound promising. I'd like to think that may be with some of the bail out money that you will receive, you will bail out your poor quality Craftsmanship and fix my roof.
It is problems with your craftsmanship (mainly poorly made transmissions) and cars that do not live up to there EPA estimated mileage (my Freestar is getting 16-20 not 22-24) that is going to bankrupt you people if you do not do something about it. If you bother to read other peoples reviews on your vehicles you will find thousands of disappointed consumers. So please, for the sake of the economy and the American auto maker, take this serious. Otherwise call your vehicle what they should really be called... Take mine for example, I call it the ford 3 stars, Meaning it got three out of ten stars.

Tom Hanks as Walt Disney closes parts of Disneyland
ANAHEIM – Eddie Agin came to Disneyland with the sole purpose of seeing actor Tom Hanks.
Within a half hour of the park opening Tuesday, the Westchester resident accomplished his goal when Hanks and co-star Emma Thompson walked toward the front of the roped-off Sleeping Beauty Castle.
A rare filming session began Tuesday at Disneyland for the upcoming Walt Disney Studios movie, "Saving Mr. Banks," in which Hanks stars as Walt Disney himself. Thompson plays P.L. Travers, the author of "Mary Poppins," in the film about the making of that movie.
"He stood out," Agin said about Hanks. "They got him in a sleek, black suit. He looked like he owned the park."
The last time that Disneyland allowed a movie shoot was for the 1996 film, "That Thing You Do," which also starred Hanks.
Disneyland is blocking off sections of the park on and off Tuesday and Wednesday during the recording. Signs in front of the entrance and around the park warn that some areas will be closed for part of the days.
On Tuesday morning, most of the hub area in front of the castle initially was roped off with signs stating, "No Flash Photography Please." Disneyland employees told visitors that the area was closed for the "Saving Mr. Banks" movie.
Because the plot is based in 1961, crews couldn't risk having visitors in modern clothing in the background. So, Disneyland employees were cast as extras in period costumes to act as Disneyland guests. Around 11:30 a.m., a line of extras in below-the-knee skirts, flip hairdos, Keds and plaid pants filed in through the castle's gates to prepare for a scene in Fantasyland.
Shortly after, employees temporarily cleared out the Fantasyland rides behind the castle for a scene captured on and around the King Arthur Carrousel. Behind the ropes, two director's chairs with the names "Walt" and "Pamela" on them sat in front of Mr. Toad's Wild ride.
Period carts, including a popcorn stand with a 5 cents sign and a flower merchant, were brought in.
The Wegner family of Albuquerque, N.M., was escorted in and out of the blocked Fantasyland area because their daughters, ages 5 and 7, had appointments at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. The Wegners were unaware that the movie filming was planned for Tuesday and might have gone first to Disney California Adventure.
"I think you just have to work around it," Dale Wegner said.
The areas set to be temporarily closed are: Main Street vehicles, Carnation Café, Plaza Inn, Sleeping Beauty Castle, Fantasyland, Astro Orbiter and Main Street, U.S.A..
Agin had a specific reason for wanting to see Hanks at Disneyland.
"Honestly, to see Walt Disney in the park again," Agin said. "That sort of attracted me in a way nothing else could."

Cute and comfortable!
"The color is awesome. Perfect for spring, and the suede material is remarkably comfortable, and somehow doesn't get dirty. It seems like it would look dirty after the first wearing, but it doesn't! I normally don't like ballet flats becuase there's no cushioning. This has light cushioning and I'm always comfortable."

Most Comfortable Shoes EVER!
"Before I got these, I bought into the hype of Tieks (Oprah's claim of most comfortable flats), and found that they hurt my feet since they have no insole. I bought these in beige and I could wear them ALL day and night; they are so comfortable, its like wearing slippers. They don't hurt my feet at all (top or bottom), and the beige goes with everything; I get compliments everytime I wear them. I now have them in almost every color and I swear by them (including 2 of the beige since I wear them almost everyday). True to size, I'm between sizes usually in 6/6.5 and the 6.5s fit like a glove."

28616 Sauk Trail Rd.
Kewanee, IL 61443
Update 10/27/2015: Youth Pheasant Hunt Press Release
From cross-country skiing in the winter to a lazy picnic in the summer, from a fishing trip in the spring to exploring fields of wildflowers amidst the fall colors of the giant oaks, Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area truly is a park for all seasons.
Located on a glacial moraine that forms the beautiful, rolling hills of Henry County in north-central Illinois, the park sits astride a trail that led Native Americans from Lake Michigan to the confluence of the Mississippi and Rock rivers.
Located off Illinois Route 78, Johnson-Sauk Trail is 6 miles south of Interstate 80 and 5 miles north of Kewanee. Originally known as the Henry County Conservation Area, a local newspaper invited the public to suggest names when the conservation area was going to be changed to a state park. Two names were popular with the public. One would name the park after State Senator Frank P. Johnson, a tireless advocate on behalf of the park, while the second suggested Sauk Trail as a fitting name, for the Indian tribes most associated with the park when Europeans began settling the area.
The two most popular choices were combined to form the park's official name. Today, Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area features 1,365 acres and abundant recreation opportunities.
Park hours are May 1 - November 1 from sunrise - 10 PM; November 1 - May 1 from sunrise - sunset. Lakeshore Loop Road is a day use area that is open May 1 - November 1 from sunrise - sunset.
Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area is located in a part of Illinois that was a vast, shallow sea millions of years ago. Two glaciers covered this part of Illinois,
the last being the Wisconsinian Glacier, which shaped the land as we know it today.
The state park is located on the southern edge of what once was the Great Willow Swamp, a marsh area covering the low-lying areas between the Mississippi, Rock and Green rivers, and is believed to have contained one of the most concentrated and varied wildlife populations in the central part of North America.
Attracting large numbers of both market and sport hunters, the area was considered a sportsman's paradise. The marsh eventually was drained for agricultural purposes.
The abundance of wild game and furbearing animals was what attracted Native Americans -- the area's first inhabitants -- to this part of Illinois. Although mound-building tribes were the first Native Americans to settle this part of the state, tribes of Sauk, Fox, Winnebago, Kickapoo, Potawatomi, Kaskaskia, Peoria and Piankashaw later established villages in the area.
Winnebago Indians used the Sauk Trail and regularly camped at or near the park. The Sauk tribe moved from Wisconsin to the confluence of the Rock and Mississippi rivers and joined the Fox Indians to form a confederation. These tribes frequently sent hunting parties to this part of the marsh.
French trappers and traders were the first Europeans to pass through this area. The land encompassing Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area was part of the Great Northwest Territory claimed by France. Following the French and Indian War, the land was ceded to Great Britain in 1765, becoming part of the colony of Virginia. The land later was part of the Northwest Territory and Illinois Territory before Illinois gained statehood.
Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area features a varied terrain, with rolling hills covered with a mix of hardwoods and pines in the south half of the park, and a flatter landscape with wildlife plantings and grasslands making up the northern half of the park.
The park's centerpiece is a 58-acre lake that offers both fishing and boating, as well as nearly 2.5 miles of shoreline to explore.
After studying a number of sites, 369 acres of land known as Whiting's Woods were purchased and construction of a lake began in 1949. Work halted soon after, when engineers encountered unfavorable soil conditions, and resumed in the summer of 1955 after advanced methods of dam construction were developed.
The park also has Sauk Trail Pond, a scenic 3-acre pond near the park's round barn, that provides fishing opportunities in a more restful setting.
From spring through fall, visitors will find a wide array of woodland and prairie wildflowers, including bluebells, Dutchman's breeches, trillium, prairie anemone, yarrow, field daisies, vervain and goldenrod. While fewer than 1,000 natural areas exist in Illinois, one of them is located in Johnson-Sauk Trail State Recreation Area. The area contains a population of skunk cabbage, an early bloomer that sometimes blossoms in the snow which is rare for this part of the state.
White-tailed deer, raccoons, squirrels, opossums and rabbits are among the myriad wildlife found in the park. Birders have ample opportunities to catch sight of chickadees, nuthatches, goldfinches and hundreds of other avian visitors.
The park features five picnic areas with tables and cook stoves/grills. Chief Senachwine Shelter offers electricity and can be reserved at ReserveAmerica.com.
The Chief Keokuk Campground features 70 pads with electrical hook-ups for campers or tents (Class A camping), plus 25 non-electrical, 'tent only' sites (Class C camping) that are not accessible by vehicle. A shower building and a sanitary dump station in the camping area, and all water are open May 1 and close November 1. The park does not provide water November 1 - May 1, however the campground is open during these winter months for electric or non-electric 'dry' camping.
In addition, "Blackhawk Group Area" on Lakeshore Loop Road is available for organized youth/adult group camping May 1 - November 1.
ReserveAmerica Reservations are available for the Chief Keokuk Campground, Cabin, Black Hawk Group Camp May 1 thru October 31.
A primitive cabin, Chief Tecumseh, is available year round. The cabin is located on a slope overlooking Johnson Lake. During the months of May thru October reservations must be made using www.reserveamerica.com. December thru April call the Park Office 309-853-2425 for information on how to rent the cabin. There is no cooking, pets or smoking in the cabin. Fire grill, table and BBQ grill are provided outside. A full size bed, two sets of bunk beds, a table and benches are provided inside.

May thru October cabin guests may use the campground shower facilities and potable water is available within 150 yards of the cabin. The Park does not provide water or shower facilities November thru April.

The playground in Chief Keokuk Campground is available to campers.
Johnson-Sauk Trail has 4 miles of trails, ranging from 1/4 mile to 1 mile in length, from easy to moderate and taking hikers along the lake or through land ranging from rolling prairie to pine plantations and bottomland hardwood forests. Even the pickiest of hikers should find a trail to his or her liking. If additional miles are desired, the trails have been designed to connect so you can link one to another, providing up to an 8 mile loop around Lake Johnson.
Johnson-Sauk Trail is an all-season park, with summer hiking trails doubling as trails for 3 miles of cross-country ski trails. Trail maps are available.
The park's hills also are ideal for sledding, and the lake provides an excellent place for ice fishing or ice skating when conditions permit.
Hunting is a popular activity at the park. Johnson-Sauk Trail is one of the Department of Natural Resources' popular Controlled Pheasant Hunting sites, with pheasant released daily during the statewide hunting season (closed Mondays and Tuesdays, Christmas and New Years). A fee is charged and reservations can be made for our pheasant program.
The park also allows hunters to pursue deer with a bow and arrow, plus dove and squirrel with shotgun only. Spring turkey hunting is by permit only.

'In his ongoing experiments at the University of Montreal, on how man reacts to and deals with stress in his everyday life, Dr Selye continues his monumental contribution to experimental medicine.' (Karsh)
Hans Selye was educated in Prague, Paris and Rome before moving to Montreal, Canada. He became the first director of the University of Montreal's Institute of Experimental Medicine and Surgery in 1945. After retiring from the university in 1976, he founded the International Institute of Stress in 1977. His pioneering work showed how environmental stress and anxiety release hormones that could, in time, lead to disorders characteristic of the twentieth century. His theories had a major effect upon modern medicine. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of Canada.

Still a "Go-To-Shoe" for moderate pronators, Adrenaline GTS 12 carries over with minimal changes to its stable, flexible and smooth setup.
Not much has changed with the latest update to the Adrenaline series, both on paper and on the feet of our testers. The shoe continues to offer a crowd-pleasing fit, a healthy dose of cushioning, and the pronation support many runners need.
While the Adrenaline doesn't fit into a lightweight category, it feels light underfoot, especially for a shoe that offers a good deal of pronation support. We continue to like the Brooks DNA technology, which automatically firms up the shoe at speed to create a more responsive ride.
For our brief test, we weren't able to check out the long-term durability of the latest Adrenaline. We expect it to hold up well for many hundreds of miles. As Brooks' most popular model, the company has invested in high-quality materials from heel-to-toe, and it shows.
The elastic midfoot lace eyelets – a feature present on the prior version of this shoe – weren't a favorite of the testers. One noted that the elastic in the midfoot felt awkward when the shoe was laced up, but becomes unnoticeable while running. Another tester commented that the eyelets sat awkwardly on his foot. But these are nitpicks in a complete package we find very impressive.
For those looking to take their run beyond the road, the ASR (or All Season Running) version of the Adrenaline features a hybrid outsole suitable for both on and off road. The GTX edition of the Adrenaline comes equipped with a Gore-Tex liner within the upper, keeping the feet dry in wet conditions and while running through puddles.
Fits like an Adrenaline – comfortably snug over the top of my foot. I find this shoe to lay down better than any previous Adrenaline model, with a ride that's just a tad softer than the 11. I say it's a homerun.
Brooks didn't mess with a good thing here. Very nice feel for a maximum pronation support shoe, and I think the smooth heel-to-toe transition is an improvement over the 11.
I like how willing this shoe is to move forward. And the upper fits well with the possible exception of the lateral midfoot, which felt a little snug.

Residents of Castle Dale approached the Emery County Commission about flooding they experienced this fall. James Huggard showed pictures to the commission of the damages. There has been flooding there the past two of three years. The waters come out of the stream channel and flood onto the fields in the area. One house had water in the crawl space and another house was saved when a ditch to divert water was dug. The stream channel has grown in with trees and debris and no longer flows within its banks in a flood event. The residents asked the county what they could do to remedy this situation and to clean out the channel.
Commissioner Jeff Horrocks said they have looked at the situation before and Mark Williams who lives in the area of the flooding has approached the commission so they are aware of the problem. The county said they will look at getting a stream alteration permit. Huggard asked that the process get started in obtaining the necessary permits so the problem can be fixed.
Commissioner Horrocks said they have tried to get permission from the Army Corp. of Engineers.
Commissioner James Nelson said when Huntington City did the stream restoration work this past spring they were able to do so under stream restoration guidelines.
The residents were told to approach the Emery Water Conservancy District to see if they can help in any way.
The emergency manager for the county, Capt. Kyle Ekker is aware of the problem too and will work on it.
Commissioner Nelson said the Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company should be consulted and be involved in finding a solution for the problem.
It appears no maintenance work has been done in the area since Joe's Valley dam was built in the 1960s.
The commission discussed the landfill tippage fees. Attorney David Blackwell has looked at the fee schedule and the proposal is for under 1,000 pounds there is not fee. Over 1,000 pounds there is a $10 per ton fee and for contaminated soil it's $15 per ton. Tires are $1 and large tires are $5 to take. The hearing is set for Dec. 17 at 5:30 p.m. Commissioner Nelson said, "It won't change a thing for the ordinary citizen using the landfill.
The commission denied two ambulance write-offs saying an attempt must be made to pay these bills. The ambulance service cannot continue to write-off trips and remain solvent.
Wade Allinson was appointed to the Emery County Preservation Commission. Ray Petersen is stepping down and the commission thanked Petersen for his service.
A tax abatement was approved for Dennis Tuttle after the square footage of his cabin was remeasured.
Bret Mills recommended the county not sign the agreement with NOAH for the weather equipment on Horn Mountain. This contract gives all the rights and privileges to the federal government and the county can't cancel the contract but the government can. Mills said they need a standard lease agreement for the users at the county communications facility.
Mills said AT&T went in there and did a lot of work without permission. AT&T thought the tower was theirs and Mills had a big discussion with them about ownership of the tower. NOAH wanted the contract to last for 20 years, but Mills said that's too long and only 10 years is better. NOAH broadcasts great information about weather forecasts and weather conditions. But, the county shouldn't give up their building to them.
The county has to pay the forest service rent to have the communications tower on the forest. The commission requested a universal contract be prepared so all users at the communications site will be under the same rules.
The commission approved a debris basin permit application for the Huntington South Debris Basin. It's a stream alteration permit and needs to be approved by the Army Corp of Engineers. There is a fee attached to the permit.
The commission approved an application with the state of Utah to keep them informed on the plans at the Huntington South Debris basin.
Commissioner Nelson reported he attended the UAC convention in St. George. He met with the fire district and the average volunteer fire fighter has 180 hours of training each year. The fire district is looking at pumper trucks. He attended the BLM meeting in Richfield on the sage grouse. There are two areas where the birds exist in Emery County, Horn Mountain and the Pines. The state of Utah has been working hard to keep the sage grouse from being listed.
Commissioner Migliori attended a meeting on the transmission lines running from Wyoming into Utah and onto California. If the county allows the lines to come through then there needs to be some advantage to the county.
There will be a meeting in January which will include the newly elected mayors from the towns. They are looking at a countywide dog ordinance which would make things easier. The historical preservation commission recently placed information signs at the Lucky Strike mine area and at Tomsich Butte. Plans are underway for lifesize silhouettes to be placed at the Buckhorn Information Center to depict the Spanish Trail.
Commissioner Jeff Horrocks said the south Moore road fencing project is moving ahead. He met with the housing authority and they are working hard to improve the low income housing in the county.
"I attended the Lunch and Learn with the Emery County Business Chamber and Jay Kinghorn from the Utah State Office of Tourism talked about things to do for our county to enhance tourism dollars. We met with the climbing group and discussions were held on parking, restrooms and camping. Ray Petersen will follow up. The forest service and the BLM were there."
Commissioner Horrocks reported they are meeting with several eastern Utah counties to discuss economic development.
Mike McCandless discussed the level three conditional use permit for Trail Mountain Resort for development of two subdivisions in Joe's Valley. He said the 34 acre parcel was leased from 1963 with a 99 year lease. SITLA decided to sell the parcel which was purchased by Blaine and MaryAnn Luke. Since there were no zoning ordinances in place at the time, it was listed as a non-conforming prior use. Since the sale of the parcel, any future development must be in compliance with current zoning ordinances. They wish to develop a 20 acre parcel in one acre lots. The plan was submitted and the zoning commission has been looking at it since August. There will be two subdivisions, one of which due to the steepness of the terrain will only have five lots. The subdivisions will have a homeowners association.
McCandless told the commission they can accept the recommendation of the planning and zoning commission, modify or reject it as they see fit. One new benefit to the county will be the individual lot owners will be subject to property taxes.
The commission approved the level three conditional use permit for the Trail Mountain resort.
Commissioner Migliori reminded everyone to shop local this Christmas season as much as possible.
The next commission meeting will be on Dec. 17 at 5 p.m. A budget hearing and landfill hearing will also be held at this time.

Skip to comments.Rick Perry Stands By Texas DREAM Act
Posted on 08/15/2011 10:51:41 AM PDT by Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears
In sharp contrast to the national Republican Party line, Texas Gov. Rick Perry still supports his state's version of the so-called DREAM Act, which permits foreign-born children of illegal immigrants to pay in-state college tuition. "To punish these young Texans for their parents' actions is not what America has always been about," the potential dark horse GOP candidate told the New Hampshire Union Leader in his first New Hampshire interview of the 2012 campaign cycle.
Perry has not yet announced whether he will run for president, but he polls well. Real Clear Politics's average of polls, for example, puts him in fourth place behind former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Rep. Michele Bachmann, and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who is also undeclared. Perry opposes passing such legislation on the federal level, but his stance on immigration could tarnish his star among conservatives, who have fought efforts in other states and the U.S. Congress to pass similar legislation. Critics see such laws as a giveaway to people who have broken the law and unfair to American citizens who have to pay out-of-state tuition to attend universities across state lines.
Rick Perry's own words:
We dont care where you come from, but where you are going, and we are going to do everything we can to help you get there. And that vision must include the children of undocumented workers. Thats why Texas took the national lead in allowing such deserving young minds to attend a Texas college at a resident rate
He wants taxpayers to finance the education of the children of illegals, let them fill our classrooms and use up our resources, and even go so far as to let them go to our universities so they can take away the jobs of Americans...
All because its not fair that they should have to suffer. Sounds like quite an incentive for more illegals to pour over the borders.
As a compassionate state, we know that for our children to succeed, they must not only be healthy, but educated.
The future leaders of our two nations are learning their fractions and their ABCs in classrooms all along this border. Immigrants from around the world are being taught in Texas classrooms, and our history is rich with examples of new citizens who have made great contributions.
We must say to everyTexas child learning in a Texas classroom, we dont care where you come from, but where you are going, and we are going to do everything we can to help you get there. And that vision must include the children of undocumented workers.
Thats why Texas took the national lead in allowing such deserving young minds to attend a Texas college at a resident rate. Those young minds are a part of a new generation of leaders, the doors of higher education must be open to them. The message is simple: educacion es el futuro, y si se puede.
It is my understanding any kid who attends Texas pblic schools for 3 years gets in-state tuition if admitted to a state university?
If based on this issue you don't want to vote for someone who thinks kids of undocumented parents should be treated the same way, in hopes the kids will become educated higher earning future taxpayers, then don't vote for Governor Perry.
You will have other choices
"To punish these young Texans for their parents' actions..."
No, Rick. The point is that we should NOT REWARD children for their parents' unlawful acts. Otherwise, we incent the parents to commit those unlawful acts.
No, let me go on record as saying I believe U.S. citizenship means something, and that breaking our laws should not be rewarded.
Especially at the expense of American citizens.
Sorry you disagree.
What candidate has other views on this subject?
They all seem as squishy as Bush and McCain...
Why do all the politicians care more about jobs for Mexican citizens than American citizens?
I'll let you do your own homework. I'm just presenting the facts. ;-)
Really, I'm still trying to figure out who the perfect candidate would be.
Agreed. We may have to hold our noses, bend over and take it to get rid of Obama.
But let's not be so naive as to believe Rick Perry is what he claims to be.
Me too. Please see post #12
Sarah Palin is a presidential contender who has been firm and consistent in her support for Governor Brewer's fight against illegal immigration in Arizona.
He's dreaming if he thinks I'll support another Jorge Bush or Juan McCain.
That is my question also.
What candidate is willing...
to build the fence?
to put armed soldiers on the fence?
to shoot the trespassers, the pregnant women, the kids?
Assuming they don't commit violent criminal acts, no politician is going to deport them
Not Sarah Palin, Not Ron Paul, NO ONE
So Governor Perry had to make a choice
As for the expense of the American citizens...Texans are going to pay for the choices of these parents, one way or another
We are going to be on the hook for welfare to low paid or jobless youth, or on the hook for state-rate college tuition for those who qualify to go to college (presumably the brightest and most motivated)
decisions decisions, which works better for Texas and our country in the long run?
I have to agree with the governor, to include these kids with every other 3 yr student at a Texas school, including plenty of kids whose American parents are bums, druggies and winos
I promise. I won't vote for him.
It looks exactly like Rick Perry is part of the problem, not the solution!
This is an issue that crosses party lines and is a BIG DEAL.
This could be Babs speaking. Looking down your nose and TELLING THE AMERICANS WHAT THEY WILL HAVE TO ACCEPT! SCREW YOU BUDDY!
We as Americans were never asked if they wanted 1-10th of Mexico's population! RULING-CLASS SCUM AND THEIR OPERATIVES!
Perry works for them!
This is a smart move for Perry and only confirms my support for him. The Hispanic vote will be crucial next year. Obama is losing the Hispanics and Perry is smart to try and win their support. Now if he picks Rubio as his VP, then there's no stopping the GOP in Nov. '12.
All the DREAM Act will do is to encourage even more illegals to cross the border.
>We may have to hold our noses....<
Not if yiou jump off Rick Perry's little red pickup truck right now and get behind a true American Conservative, Michelle Bachmann.
I will never hold my nose to vote again. it is time for the people of this country to come together to do the right thing for our own survival! NO MORE RINOs!
Bush II - warmed over lightly.
When Perry crashes and burns, expect the GOP establishment to pick Chris Christie and try and run him. But he is a much bigger target for conservative critics.
That's why we need the federal government to secure the border.
There it is. Ive been screaming it from day one, RICK PERRY IS NOT A CONSERVATIVE AND IS NO GOOD!! If he won the election he would help pass amnesty for millions of illegals and hand this country right back to the dems, probably for good with all those new dem voters. People think it got bad quick with the dems in control, wait until they have control with NO chance of being voted out.
Very reasonable response - and Perry's was a reasonable policy as well. Too bad both of you are catching so much flak.
Like that's ever going to happen.
So you're willing to surrender conservative principles, U.S. sovereignty and ignore the rule of law to pander for the Hispanic vote. All on the taxpayer dime. Duly noted. Can't enforce existing laws now, can we? /sarc
Spoken like a true RINO. You sound like Señor Jorge Bush.
A real heavyweight, too.
Rick Perry is a nanny state statist, unafraid to spend taxpayer money in support of illegals in return for political favor.
Please see post #36
I see no need for deportations. No one will support it because it seems cruel.
What I would do is enforce electronic document checks for new hires, and fine employers who hire illegals 50,000 dollars for each violation.
Employers would stop hiring illegals, and the illegals would self-deport. End of problem....
You really think Mexicans are going to hire coyotes to smuggle them across the desert so their kids can attend public school for 3 years to get a tuition break?
I used to be opposed to the Maryland DREAM act but on reading it, it makes sense to get behind this and use it to assimilate the next generation, rather than than perpetuate how the parents are living and whine about "It's not FAAIIRRR 'cause the parents did something illegal to get here...."
Especially when the kids of every American citizen druggie and junkie and 5th generation welfare mama in the state of Maryland are eligible for cheap community college, if they had the ambition and smarts to work for it
Sometimes life isn't fair. So how do we make the best of it..
Conservatives ought to be giving these kids scholarship money for writing essays about America's conservative heritage and the opportunities it creates
for them and their children
Exactly. But we have people who would rather eliminate our borders (aka U.S. Sovereignty) than enforce the law, all for short-term political gain.
What's alarming is that some FReepers are on board with the sell-out, cheering it on, and claiming it is somehow "honorable" and "a smart move." Un. Frickin. Believable.
A nation without borders is not a nation.
a worker registration system could also address this problem of chaos and lack of any rational and coherent respect for law and order
I think this is part of the solution a conservative administration will try to bring about
Having a better economy and a renewed pride in American exceptionalism can only help. and Screw La Raza!
I don't care where they come from, just how. Legally or illegally, there is a difference.
And that vision must include the children of undocumented workers.
Not at my expense. Get your corporate buddys to pay the bill, not me.
I'm sure the Perrybots will be along to tell us why this is ok......
True but we don't need states bending over backwards to find even more ways to spend money on illegals.
>>I'm sure the Perrybots will be along to tell us why this is ok...... <<
Oh, they're already here. No matter how much the issue goes against U.S. sovereignty, the constitution or the rule of law, some knucklehead will come out of the woodwork to defend it. It never fails.
It's not what he says, it what he does.
>>Not at my expense. Get your corporate buddys to pay the bill, not me.<<
YES! My question to all the Perrybots defending this: doesn't this ENCOURAGE more illegal immigration? Why wouldn't this give Mexicans even more incentive to come here in bigger droves than they already are?
Grow a brain, people!
Unfortunately it is belivable. Had you been around here in 2006 thru 2008 you would have read the same comments from numerous FReepers defending Bush and McCain on their push for immigration reform legislation.

The water outlook in Emery County is looking good for the irrigation season. A colder than normal spring and a wet June kept the snow pack in the mountains for a longer period of time. Joe's Valley and Millsite reservoirs both spilled longer than normal. Joe's Valley quit spilling a week ago. Project water is being released for local agricultural needs. Craig Johansen is the president of the Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company. He said the spill of Joe's Valley was as anticipated. "The snow held this year and we didn't get all the run-off at one time. It was stretched out over a period of time. The stream flows at this time are normal. Things are looking really good and we haven't drawn down much at this time. Cottonwood Creek is running about average. With the heat of late, our releases our unpredictable because we lose some water to evaporation, but not bad. It will be a good irrigation season, because our reservoirs are full. A full-water supply is available out of Joe's Valley. In eight of 10 years, then Millsite spills. It spilled this year longer than normal. Ferron always has plenty of water for their needs. The reservoirs on the Huntington drainage are all still full and just beginning to be drawn."
Huntington North Reservoir will stay filled longer with the water savings from the new salinity system being installed in the Cleveland, Elmo, Lawrence and Huntington areas.
Currently Joe's Valley is 94 percent full, Huntington North is 82 percent, Miller's Flat, 74 percent, Cleveland Reservoir, 89 percent and Millsite 95 percent.


text: Once a client's goal and readiness to engage in physical activity is determined, the next step is program design. How you design and implement your client's unique program depends on your observations from the postural and movement screens and assessments (described in Chapter 7) you performed with this client. Reestablishing proper stability and mobility in the body is the main focus of Phase 1. When using the ACE IFT Model, you must first address proximal stability (toward the attached end of limb) via the lumbar spine/core before progressing to the distal (away from the attached end of the limb) extremities or distal joints. Establishing proper core function (i.e., proximal stability) will allow for stable muscles to perform their given functions without compromising the function of the distal joints. Clients should progress through the following sequence only when an improvement in function is seen in the different segments. Improving the function of these segments ultimately leads to the establishment of static balance. Incorporating various strengthening exercises (stability) and stretching techniques (mobility), such as self-myofascial release, static stretching and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, will help address any potential problem areas that you observe in the assessment process. Programming components/stages to improve stability and mobility progresses in the following sequence: The main objective in each component/stage of Phase 1 is to improve the body's ability to function efficiently by addressing any deviations and compensations observed in your initial screening process of posture and movement. Based on your findings, it is important to progress as the model outlines, for optimal function. When studying the IFT Model and applying the information from each component/stage of Phase 1 into your client's program, there are some questions you want to ask: What is the function of this region of the body? Each region has a specific responsibility in the kinetic chain with regard to stability and mobility. This is a good time to refer to ACE's Essentials of Exercise Science Manual for a clearer understanding of muscles and their functions. For example, the core is made up of three layers of muscles. The inner layer consists of the rotatres, interspinali and intertransversarri; the middle layer consists of the transverse abdominis, multifidi, quadratus lumborum, diaphragm, pelvic floor musculature and the adjoining fasciae; and the outer layer consists of the rectus abdominis, erector spinae, external and internal obliques, iliopsoas and latissimus dorsi. All of these muscles function as a unit to keep the lumbar spine stable during load and movement. The better you understand how muscles function as a unit in the kinetic chain, the more effective you will be at designing a progressive program that is tailored to your client's goals and needs. Which exercises address the findings of your screening? This is where you connect the dots. The exercises listed after each stage are critical to your programming. They all assist in improving the functions based on your assessment observations. Strengthening exercises are introduced for the weak muscles (to improve stability), and flexibility exercises are introduced for tight muscles (to improve mobility). For example, in your observation you notice that a client exhibits an anterior pelvic tilt, which can contribute to tightness in the lower back (shortening of the erector spinae). Two exercises that are helpful in improving extensibility or reducing tension the lower back are the supine 90-90 neutral back and the cat camel, both of which are presented in Chapter 9 of the ACE Personal Trainer Manual, 4th Edition. As improvements are made in one segment you may progress to the next. Although Phase 1 is important when addressing deviations, keep in mind that you may not start every client in this phase. You may have a client ready to start load training (i.e., Phase 3). Even so, there may be some minor deviations that need to be addressed. Do you start from Phase 1? Not necessarily, but you may incorporate some of the elements of stability and mobility training into the warm-up and/or cool-down to improve function before and after adding external loading to the body. Stability and mobility training should be ongoing to improve overall function in the kinetic chain.
