It isn't awful, but it definitely is noticeable, and I'd like to know if anybody is using this slide, and if so, have they had this issue? Any suggestions on how to quiet it down?

I know many of you have been wondering about my absence, so I thought that I would pop in to write this blog to share with all of you. Right now, I am facing a challenge as I've been diagnosed with breast cancer. This diagnosis has been an upheaval in my life and a traumatic one for all of my family and friends. As you can imagine, I have not been able to function properly since the diagnosis. As such, I have not been here because I felt so useless and unable to provide much support, comfort,
Hello WHL Family;
As we all know, stress is one of our biggest enemies and I know that, with the holidays upon us, many of us are feeling (and dealing with) additional stress. Wherever there is stress, we often find that there is also a bit of anger, some resentment, and often feelings of powerlessness.
I just want to remind everyone that the truth is: No one, but ourselves, has authority over how we feel. In all stressful situations, we have the choice of how we will react to them.
Hello WHL Family; It is October, again. October 2011 marking 12 yrs since the loss of my sweet Lauri. I suspect that this October will be a rather difficult month for me because I have had so many health challenges heretofore and now the stress of having to acknowledge another birthday that my sweet daughter is not here to celebrate; well, it is not helping my physical health at all.
I know that my health deteriorates each and every year at this time and, intellectually, I have made that
Dear WHL Family;
It has been quite a while since I posted a Blog. However, I just wanted to share some of my thoughts about faith, love, and loss.
Each year, around the holiday season, I and my family fall into a dark abyss from October until January. These months represent our daughter's (Lauri's) birthday month..Thanksgiving without her, the anniversary of her passing (12/10), her wedding anniversary (12/13), and finally Christmas and New Year's without her.
No matter
Hello Dear WHL Family;
Do you realize that it was February 17, 2009 when I posted a blog about our then new WHL site provided by Conrad. I talked about our exhilaration as we explored the new site and how we were able to forget our illness for those moments that we spent playing in the arcade, uploading pictures, exploring new capabilities of the site, etc.
I also mentioned that "static" was something that Conrad would NEVER allow! Was I right??? Here we are, less

Last Time vs. Oregon State
(12-15-06): W, 74-62 in Omaha
Sara Cain scored a career-high 15 points and tied her career-best with nine rebounds to lead the Creighton women's basketball team to a 74-62 win over Oregon State Friday night at the Omaha Civic Auditorium.
Creighton fell behind 4-0 to start the game, but bounced back with a 10-2 run, before the Beavers responded with the next seven points to claim a 13-10 lead with 10 minutes to play in the opening half. The Bluejays answered with a 10-0 run over a 2:34 span to take the lead for good. Creighton also ripped off an 11-0 run in the first half to push to its largest lead of the opening frame, up by 13.
Creighton didn't let up in the second half, as it cruised to its first home victory of the year. The Beavers scored only one field goal in the first six-plus minutes of the second half, as the Bluejays opened up their largest lead of the season, going up 54-29 with 15:11 to play in the game. The 12-point final margin was the closest the foul-plagued Beavers could get to the Bluejays.
Cain finished 6-for-12 from the field and 3-for-4 at the charity stripe for her career-high point total. She also pulled down a season-high nine rebounds, including five on the offensive end to help Creighton to a 35-33 rebounding advantage. Kristina Voss and Megan Neuvirth each added seven boards, including five offensive caroms for Voss as well.
Michelle Kaus chipped in 13 points, making three three-pointers for the second straight game. She also made all four of her free-throw attempts. For the fourth straight game, Chevelle Herring scored in double figures, finishing with 12 points on a series of scoop shot layups. Ally Thrall added a season-best seven assists.

Keys to the Game w/Oregon State:
Rebound as a Team: Facing the size disadvantage of the Beavers, Creighton must crash the boards as a unit. In the loss to the Huskers, the Bluejays won the battle of the boards.
Get Nelson going: Sarah Nelson has struggled from the field since scoring 17 points at Kansas. When she scores the Bluejays offensive distribution soars.
Play Inside-Out: Last season Creighton hit 302 three-pointers, but the Bluejays have struggled recently. Creighton must get interior scoring to open up its shooters.

Last Time vs.UNLV: (3-30-04): W, 73-52 in Omaha

UNLV opened the second half with a three-pointer by InFini Robinson, drawing the Lady Rebels within single-digits (41-32) for the first time since 12-4. However, the Bluejays responded with a 10-2 run to return their lead to 17 with 15 minutes to go. Creighton later had a 13-0 burst to go ahead 66-37 with eight minutes left, prompting Creighton coach Jim Flanery to clear the bench.

UNLV has three of its five starters averaging double figures, led by Alana Cesarz (14.0 ppg). The Lady Rebels have committed 153 turnovers in nine games (17 per contest), but have forced 157. UNLV has struggled this season on the boards, averaging just 37.6 rebounds per game.
Keys to the Game w/UNLV:

- Use Post Depth: Creighton matches up well inside against the Lady Rebels and the one area that Creighton has depth is in the post. This will be a good opportunity to try to get Akin-Otiko, Kamphaus and Rollerson some confidence as BIG EAST play looms

The Gray division is comprised of DePaul, Louisiana-Monroe, Pittsburgh and Washington. Each pod plays all three opponents within the same division, but there are no crossover games.

Letter to the Editor
I want to express my appreciation to the Clay County High School ROTC Honor Guard for their outstanding performance during the opening ceremony at the Clay County Days in downtown Manchester. I was there with the Vietnam Veterans, as we were part of the Ceremony also. I was very impressed with these young people. Everyone of this group made it a point to come to us veterans and shake our hands. I am proud of these people and their leader. They deserve to be recognized because you rarely find this character in young people anymore. They deserve to be commended.

Dear Editor,
Please renew my "Enterprise" subscription. I came to Clay County back in 1953 and fell in love with the area and its people. I am now living in Lee County to be able to help out with the work at Youth Haven Bible Camp. Yes, I am 83, but I don't plan to stop what God sent me to do in the schools and Youth Haven until or unless God takes me to heaven. Will we meet again up there?

Dear Editor,
Thank you for your help in promoting the Manchester Christian Academy's visits to Manchester Gospel Mission on July 29 and Lyttleton Baptist Church on August 5.
We were blessed to visit with these congregations, and we hope that the visits were a blessing to those who witnessed them. The current students and alumni who sang and presented testimonials found receptive audiences and were made to feel at home.
We intend to continue with these sessions in the weeks ahead as the Lord directs. Future dates will be announced with sufficient advance notice to allow anyone interested to be able to make plans to attend.
MCA's 2012-13 school year begins on Thursday, August 16. Interviews and campus visits may be arranged by calling 598-1984. All who are interested in a Christ-focused, academically challenging experience for their respective families are invited to examine the MCA facilities and curriculum.

To the Editor, Manchester Enterprise:
I would like to take this means to say thank you for having one of Kentucky's finest newspapers. Your public service is the best, bar none.
My wife and I were back home for the OBI homecoming from our home in Florida where we both retired from teaching school. I am from Bullskin in Clay County and my wife Diane's roots are Dayton, Ohio. I am writing specifically to say thank you to the fine folks who found my reading glasses and put them on our car door handle at the Walmart in London. I hope these folks read this letter. My wife and I always marvel at how good the people are in this part of the country!
I would be amiss if I did not say thank you also to our good friend Coleman House, who is a former dean and teacher at OBI. He retired from the Knox County Schools as supervisor of Special Education. He is always helping us and doing favors for us and so many others. Also my brother, Lewis Burns, tells me he looks forward to his Manchester Enterprise each Thursday. He likes the newspaper and keeps several weeks of back issues.
Please let me also say thank you to Darrell Glenn Hudson who does most of the work in putting together our annual OBI homecoming Friday Night at Frisch's. Best wishes to Darrell Glenn's cousin Wesley Couch, Assistant Superintendent of Clay County Schools, who just received his doctorate from University of the Cumberlands; and to OBI's new president Dr. Paul Davidson. Finally, thanks to Myrtle Cooke, OBI 2012 Alumni Director, who works so hard to make it a great homecoming.
Again, thanks a million to the fine folks who found my reading glasses and put them on our car door handle. You all are the greatest people in the world, and returning my lost glasses proves my point.

Just practise with a Hor. Line and record your holds for all the ranges. A little cheat sheet tape inside your to limb is valuable to record your holds. Your 3 yard "pin" may be the same as your 40 yard pin. I start at 3 yards and work out to 30 yards.
It can look like this with the first number yards, second number pin and third number POI:
3 3 -1"
5 1 0
10 1 +1
15 1 +1
20 1 0
22 1 -1
24 1 -5
26 2 +5
28 2 +3
29 2 +1
30 2 0
Something like that...
I'm back to one fixed pin at 20 yard zero. I find my mind is much more efficient with holds rather than multiple pins, at my ranges, as I always seem to be between pins and holding anyway. The last 30 deer, or so, were taken at an average of 16 yards, the shortest shot being two yards and the longest 24 yards. I hunt from 16' feet above ground level and distances are taken from the tree at ground level.

I shoot fingers and sightless, might I recomend you give that a try (sightless I mean), those point blank shots will feel much more natural after a bit of practice. Not that I want to start a whole debate but this is a good example of people relying too much on gadgets IMO.
Frankly, having shot with a sight before, I found it rather easy (with practice of course) to have just one pin and adjust height of your aim for the necessary yardage + or-.

Pierced by Love: Art Deco Diamond Onyx Brooch
Being pierced straight through the heart by an arrow may typify a love interest. When that projectile is of platinum and encrusted with sixty-four (64) rose cut diamonds, eight gems of onyx and an agate the intent is not at all in question.
Meticulous and fine craftsmanship accompany the precious materials in this Art Deco period jabot pin brooch. From around the 17th century, jabot pins were originally designed to secure the jabot or ruffle on the front of a gentleman's shirt of a lady's dress. The brooch is also referred to as a stock pin and is worn as part of the horse riding ensemble.
In characteristic fashion one of the decorative terminals, in this case that of the vanes or feathers slides off, and the shaft is pushed through the material. The feathers are reinserted onto the shaft and click on to secure. On the reverse a portion of the pin mechanism is of 18k yellow gold.
Date: Circa 1925.
Measurements: 3-1/8 inches (8 cm) in length when worn by 7/16 of an inch (1.1 cm) in width. Weight of 5.1 grams (3.3 dwt).
Hallmarks: French dog's head for platinum.
Condition: Excellent.
Origin: French.

BiographyStephen C. Achuff, M.D. received his M.D. from the University of Missouri School of Medicine in 1969. After completing his internship and residency at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, he served as a Fellow in Medicine in the Cardiovascular Division, then as a Research Fellow with the American Heart Association. In 1974, at the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh, Scotland, Dr. Achuff worked as an Honorary Senior Registrar in the Department of Cardiology. He returned to Johns Hopkins where he became Assistant Director of the Adult Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory as well as Cardiologist for the Lipid Research Clinic. He is a member of the Maryland Society of Cardiology and served on the Executive Board for eight years. He is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and served as Marylands Governor for three years. Dr. Achuff served as Director of Adult Cardiology Clinical Programs for 25 years at The Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is the David J. Carver Emeritus Professor of Medicine at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and is currently apart-time cardiologist at the hospital.
Dr. Achuffs current interests include his involvement in the Readership in Cardiovascular Medicine, a program to raise an endowment to support the career of a junior member of the cardiology faculty whose long-term interests lie in clinical medicine. Young clinicians at Johns Hopkins deserve and require the opportunity to begin their professional careers at a pace that allows time for true scholarship. A Readership is an academic rank, like a professorship or a lectureship, which may be granted for a period of time, and which carries a stipend. Dr. Achuff is invested in this work to provide the equivalent of start-up funding that is often available to those embarking on a research career, but in this case for a junior member of the clinical faculty. This award would give a young clinician the opportunity to spend time in clinical study, teaching and writing, to produce tangible results in the form of publications and academic recognition. Dr. Achuff expects to find the Reader teaching students and residents on the wards or in clinic, immersed in study, or presenting clinical instruction in the classroom, all the while establishing a reputation for clinical judgment, scholarship worthy of promotion in the university, and attracting thereby a clinical practice worthy of a rising star at Johns Hopkins. The quality of medical care and the future of medical education are key factors at such reputable institutions as Johns Hopkins.

May Dreamers Recommend!
The only Dreamer who has a birthday this month is not officially an employee, but she does come to HQ every workday. Isabel is the daughter of our VP of Purchasing and even with only two years of wearing clothes under her belt, Izzy's already got definite opinions on her style.
The Wee Isabelle Baby & Kids OTK from Sweet Marcel are, appropriately, one of her favourites. Fishies and colours both springy and girly, perfect for whatever mood she's feeling.
An obliging model for our baby and kids socks from the start, Izzy's rocked socks for us since she needed a little help sitting up.
• Infant & Toddler Skulls, Stripes & Stars •
• Baby Birdsye Bootsocks •
Isabel is always a delight to work with (she might be our most darling Dreamer, though I try not to be biased), and it's been even more fun as she's gotten older. She's a bolt of lightning now, but she still finds a little time to show off her socks.
• Toddler & Kids Two Packs •
• Extraordinary Harvest Rainbows •
Last summer we had another of our little feet models join Izzy for a (naptime-shortened) afternoon of trying on different socks. It was around then that she started showing some more active interest in how all the pictures were turning out.
• Wee Clergy Baby & Kids Midcalf •
I think, of all of us Dreamers who have scored some awesome socks as models, Izzy has won because she has two pairs of the fleece slipper socks. It's the luck you get when you've got the littlest feet! (For big feet in search of snuggliness, you might want to check out our new knee high option!)
• Jellybean Fleece Slipper Socks •
• Lumberjack Fleece Slipper Socks •
Happy birthday to Izzy and all you other May babies, I hope your springs are verdant and full of those flowers April always says it's raining for!!

Colours: Teal & Turquoise
There is a definite reason we lump teal and turquoise together in our Color Search. Turquoise is often bluer and lighter, dipping its toe into sky and neon blues, even. Teal is deeper and more forest-y, but just as easily slips into deep greens and muddy blues. Sometimes a supplier calls teal "turquoise" or vice-versa. Or just calls blue "teal" and then we shake our fist at the sky (which is actually blue, btw) at colour definitions. But dang, whatever you want to call it, it looks good all mixed together.
As a bonus to the tricky definitions, teal and turquoise are notoriously difficult to edit. Even if you don't understand photo editing, check these screen caps I took while editing the images for this post. Now, I should just be having to crank on the "Aqua" (aqua and cyan are often the mechanical values of teal and turquoise) slider to correctly balance the blues and yellows in turquoise and teal. Here it is with just the Aqua adjusted and the Blue slider at 0 (blue equals blue):
Already you can see that the three Dreamer styles in the main image seem less blue than the teals and turquoises of other brands in the thumbnails on the left. Now, when you move the Blue slider all the way to the right (blue equals purple), something very telling happens:
Anything that is read by the camera eye as "blue" turns purple. Except! Those three dreamer styles. They remain un-purpled. And if we haul the slider to the left (blue equals green), the whole thing is proved more:
Just, wow. I know there are a lot of variables at play, but I hope this gives you an idea of how tricky teal and turquoise are to convey (and that not everything that could go under the teal and turquoise banner is truly that shade).
So it is with particular emphasis this month I add the disclaimer! I'm not trying to define teal or turquoise. If you want some poem-like lists of names for shades of teal and turquoise, Wikipedia's Teal and Turquoise pages are kind of amazing resources. The Color Sorting Wiki is totally unpoetic and insists cyans like teal and turquoise are just shades of blue or green. I've done my best to accurately represent these hues in relation to each other, so you can gather a good idea of what matches and what doesn't. But oh man, they're a bear. A blue-green bear.
That said, let's see how different suppliers interpret this beautiful monster of a hue!
Dream Stockings & Dreamer Socks
As I showed above, we've got some beautiful representation of this hue, from pastel to deep and dark.
From left to right: O Basics, O Basics, Dreamer Acrylic Slouch Socks, Extraordinarily Longer Thigh Highs
Foot Traffic
With their "Peacock" on the greener side of the aisle and "Turquoise" more light blue, Foot Traffic has their feet on both sides of the colour gradient.
Top: Diamond Jester Trouser Socks
Bottom, from left to right: Signature Cotton Tights, Opaque Tights
Leg Avenue
They really only use "turquoise" twice in products we carry and it's really more of a neon blue (which I'll show later). But dang, it is a pretty hue and I love the petticoat in this colour.
From left to right: Layered Tulle Petticoat, Neon Striped Acrylic Knee Socks
Of course, Tabbisocks has the most stunning range of this hue, including the forest-y "Dark Cyan". From light to dark, they've got it all, as usual!
From left to right: Harajuku Scrunchy Socks, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Harajuku Leg Warmers, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Harajuku Scrunchy Socks, Color Tights, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Crochet Lover OTK
A handful of other suppliers gave straight teal or turquoise a go, and they've done quite nicely at it!
From left to right: ECO Organic Nuby Crew, Meg Unconstricted Top Crew, Three Stripe Knee Socks, Juneau Fairisle Crew, Meta Cushion Compression Knee Highs
The bluer and greener and blue-greener (and green-bluer) sub-families of teal and turquoise after the jump!

• Bikes Knee High •
• Bikes Anklet •
• Bikes Midcalf •
Two more bike-centric styles from KBell are made for bigger feet and offer some great visual pop when rocked beneath cuffs rolled out of the way.

• Gearhead Midcalf •

National Wildflower Week
Did you know it's been National Wildflower Week? A celebration of native wildflowers, National Wildflower Week is a fairly new holiday (started in 1988), overseen by the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. They say "Across the nation, wildflowers growing beside highways, in gardens and elsewhere are valued for their natural beauty."
We live in a pretty verdant place here in the Pacific Northwest, but wildflowers are everywhere! In celebration of these blooming beauties, let's look at some our floral styles (even if the blossoms depicted on a lot of them are of the cultivated type) and take a walk through our garden of socks!
Two of our most bombastically blooming styles have only recently sprouted on our site. The Flower Field Arm Warmers are a soft wool blend perfect for this mutable season with their length that looks just as great scrunched shorter. The Full Bloom Printed tights (in two sizes!) are a great opaque leg-covering layer that really pop in that springtime sun.
For slightly more subtle styles that have been our old standbys, you can't go wrong with the ECO Blossom Crew and the Tibetan Flower Crew, both are super comfy and casually floral.
One of my favourites is our Dreamer Jacquard Flowering Vine OTK, all terry-lined but not bulky, with a perfect fit and the cutest stripes on the sole.
More delicate options are the sheerly gorgeous Floating Flowers Midcalf and the Elegance Sheer Printed Tights, both of which are the sort of thing that definitely a flower fairy would wear.
This is just a bit of the bouquet of flowery goodness we've got! I just checked and we have floral styles involving literally every colour except neon (oh man, we need to remedy that!), so even if you're not normally into florals, check it out! You might find your perfect flower.
Spring is most definitely in the air (goodness knows us folks with allergies know it!) and National Wildflower Week is a great way to celebrate! Even though it's almost over, take a gander at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center's list of ideas on how to make the most of what's left of the week!
Of course, wildflowers will still be there after this week is over, and so will our floral styles. Even if you don't have a green thumb, you can still bedeck your toes with flowers!

Socks For: Momma & baby (or kiddo)
This year, Mother's Day is May 11th, and hooray for mommas! If you're looking for a socky treat for a mom in your life (or you're a mom who is treating themselves), we've got some sweet and snuggly options for you!
In previous years on the Sock Journal, we've looked at our Mother's Day Favourites collection, maternity tights and sweet indulgences. It can be tough thinking of good Mother's Day themes for posts, since moms are people and people love so many different things! I was pretty stumped for what to do this year, but then I realized the holiday gives me the perfect excuse to show off my favourite thing: matching big and little socks.
Probably one of us Dreamers' favourite things to see is an order with a matching pair of grown-up size socks and baby or kid size socks. The big socks are like the little socks' momma! So if your feet are the same size or bigger than your moms' get them one of our eight new plastic gift card designs so they can get what they really want, then sit back and get ready to go "aaaaaw!"
We were excited to be able to offer our fabulous Extraordinary Harvest Rainbows in a family range of sizes. And since they are extraordinary, the Youth fits down to toddler toes and the Junior fits up to middle grade kids (depending on everybody's shoe sizes, of course!).
Since our Dreamy Bamboo Patterned OTKs are only available in a smaller size in the Ivory, the Little Dreamer Bamboo Socks are a separate entry, but they fit the same great range the Harvest Rainbows do!
More mama and kiddo styles after the jump! Read more »

A severe thunderstorm struck Bedford Saturday night. Some say, and it was reported on a Louisville television station that a small twister touched down here. Trees were uprooted and limbs taken off and scattered all around Bedford and surrounding districts. Little damage was done to buildings. However, there was extensive damage to the roof of Dow Dunlap's home on Town Branch allowing interior damage from the subsequent rain.

Gifting Opportunities
Sun Health Foundation is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees comprised of members from the West Valley. Gifts benefit our partner nonprofits in Arizona: Banner Boswell and Del E. Webb medical centers and Banner Sun Health Research Institute. All gifts benefit the facility designated by the donor.
Ways to Make a Gift to Sun Health Foundation
Your tax-deductible gift will make it possible to continue providing outstanding care to every patient and enhancing local medical research and advancements.
Ways to gift:
- Cash, Check or Credit Card
- Gifts-in-Kind
- Gifts of Real Estate
- Stock or Mutual Fund Shares
- Charitable Gift Annuity
- Charitable Lead or Remainder Trust
- Bequest in a Will or Living Trust
- Outright Gifts
Support of Sun Health Foundation projects through outright contributions is essential for the community to continue receiving quality health care they deserve.
As a donor, gifts of cash, check and/or appreciated assets such as stocks or mutual funds allow you to enjoy a tax benefit while helping to fund health care facilities, equipment, tuition assistance and much more. Remember that when you support Sun Health Foundation you are helping fund vital nonprofits in Arizona.
Charitable Gifts of Stock
Charitable gifts of stock held more than one year provide donors with a tax deduction of the full market value, and capital gains taxes on the appreciated asset are avoided. Your contribution can be designated to support the project of your choice. Electronic transfer of stocks from your brokerage account can be made by calling Sun Health Foundation at (623) 832-5330.
Charitable Gift Annuity
When you fund Sun Health Foundation with a cash gift, securities or property, you receive fixed annuity payments of up to 9.8% based on your age (and the age of another beneficiary if one is designated). You also will be eligible to enjoy a tax deduction in the year the gift is made and carry over any unused portion over the next 5 years. Sun Health Foundation adheres to payment rates established by the American Council on Gift Annuities.
Tribute Gifts
Tribute gifts are a thoughtful way to acknowledge life's milestones while benefiting health care nonprofits in Arizona and services supported by Sun Health. Choose from:
- Honoring gifts to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, holiday or other special occasion, or as a way to say thank or I'm thinking of you.
- Memorial gifts to remember the life of someone who has passed on.
All tribute gifts are acknowledged with a personalized card sent to the person you are honoring or a family member of the deceased. At your request, for tribute gifts of $35 or more, a boxed silk rose will be sent along with the personalized card. Please call Sun Health Foundation at (623) 832-5330.
Gifts of Real Estate
A non-cash gift of a residence, commercial building or undeveloped land is a valuable donation that is carefully considered by Sun Health Foundation. Real estate donors are eligible to enjoy a tax-deduction for the appraised value of their gift.
For many people, a home represents their largest asset. Leaving a home to Sun Health Foundation through a beneficiary deed, will or trust is an excellent way to make a significant gift to health care. In some cases, the gift of a home may be used to fund a gift annuity that provides lifelong income for one or two people. Through a retained life estate arrangement, you can make a gift of your home while retaining the use of the property for as long as you choose as well as claim a current tax deduction for a portion of the property's value.
Gifts of real estate are subject to review and approval in accordance with Sun Health Foundation's gift acceptance policies.
Donors with items that can be used in one of our facilities or auctioned at a Sun Health Foundation event will receive a thank-you letter and tax receipt acknowledging the gift. Items not used as noted will be given to the Sun Health Resale Shops. Please call (623) 832-5330 if you have an item to donate.
Leaving a Legacy – Planned Gifts, including Trusts and Wills
By informing Sun Health Foundation of your intention to include us in your estate plans, you provide us the opportunity to thank you personally and clarify your wishes for the future use of your gift. We acknowledge your generosity by including you as a Legacy Leader.

North Rowan moves to 2-0
SPENCER — Sometimes when the skies are darkest, the stars shine brightest.
In a game played under a pall of sorrow Friday night, host North Rowan showed how far it has come — finishing the season's first month by finishing off Carson.
"I'm just proud of my guys," coach Joe Nixon said quietly after North prevailed 34-15. "It was tough game to play and a tough game to win."
Participants played and spectators watched with heavy hearts after learning of Post sports editor Ronnie Gallagher's sudden death earlier in the day. Amoment of silence was observed in a brief, pre-game tribute.
Moments later the Cavs (2-0) stood for the national anthem — then stood for little else. Their defense forced six turnovers and limited Carson (1-1) to 64 yards in the second half. Their offense survived an injury to quarterback Alexis Archie and rattled and burned with cohesion behind backup Jareke Chambers. And despite collecting a month's worth of penalties, North was a convincing winner.
"I'm just sore," Chambers said after rushing for 97 yards and three touchdowns — and taking a shot in the back early in the fourth quarter. "It was that kind of game. It was a hard one."
Carson coach Joe Pinyan, who celebrated a memorable win last week, felt like Big Jim playing poker on a losing night. He spent much of the evening pleading case after case with the officials.
"You know, if we quit turning the football over, we're a pretty good team," he said. "We played them physical, we got after them. The speed was a mismatch but if we eliminate the mistakes — and I've got a list of them — we're very close."
Carson's first mistake came after it took the opening kickoff and controlled the ball for more than four minutes. But a fourth-down punt attempt was blocked by North's Mike Robinson and returned 48 yards for a touchdown by teammate Kenyon Tatum.
"It was just the two of us going for a block," said Tatum, a transfer from Davie County. "I scooped it up and scored. A great play."
And a prelude of what was to come. Carson's second possession resulted in a pick-six, a 41-yard interception return for a TD by linebacker Xavier Robinson. The Cougars trailed 12-0 and seemed cooked after just six minutes in North's oven.
Instead Carson regrouped and mounted a six-play, 56-yard scoring drive capped when Brandon Sloop scored on a short burst over the right side late in the opening quarter.
"We made all these mistakes, but then we responded," said Pinyan. "The next thing you know it was 18-7 and we scored to make it 18-15. We felt good about ourselves at halftime. We felt we had a chance."
North's defense stifled that chance with a dominant second half. It forced a safety late in the third period when a long snap sailed over punter Andrew Hower's head and out of the end zone. Then it forced turnovers on Carson's final three possessions in the fourth quarter.
"The defense was really strong tonight," said Tatum, who also picked off a pass. "We did everything we had to do."
His effort helped North open the season with consecutive wins for the first time since 1998. There was also a downside to North's triumph. It was penalized 14 times for 129 yards, a mess Nixon insists "we have to clean up."
And then there was Archie, the junior southpaw who passed for 134 yards and three touchdown's is a season-opening win at East Rowan. Last night he suffered an unspecified arm injury on the Cavs' third play from scrimmage — a short, sideline completion to Cameron Sifford.
"He hurt one of of his arms," is all Nixon would reveal. "He's going to have it checked out."
That opened a door for Chambers, who scored on a pair of fourth-quarter scrambles. "I knew I had to step up, be a leader and put the team on my shoulders," he said. "I'm glad I could do it."
Pinyan applauded Chambers' effort and said, "We game-planned for Archie, but he went out and suddenly there's an all-world running back taking snaps. We didn't prepare for that."
NOTES: Carson linebacker Myquon Stout missed his second straight game with a back injury. He's expected back when the Cougars return to action Sept. 13 at Central Cabarrus. ... Darren Isom had 82 yards rushing to CHS. ... North's Trae Clark had the game's longest run — a 70-yard gallop early in the second quarter.

So, it turns out that any concerns you might have had over Harold Camping's prediction that the world would end on October 21, can now be put aside: The world is still here (as far as I can determine) and humanity is still busy going about its evil ways which involve consuming energy at a staggering rate … and that leads me nicely to this week's revisiting of the topic of my blog posting two weeks ago, "Hello Cheap Energy, Hello Brave New World".
As I discussed in that posting, an inventor by the name of Andrea Rossi has developed what he claims to be a simple system for generating what would be, essentially, endless and incredibly cheap energy.
On October 28th the biggest test of Rossi's system, which is called the E-Cat, was conducted in Italy and some results were made public which I'll discuss in a moment.
Before that I do, let me give you a quick refresh: The E-Cat, which is short for "Energy Catalyzer", is claimed to produce a "Low Energy Nuclear Reaction" or LENR. LENR is another name for "cold fusion" or CF (LENR is considered a more acceptable term than CF which was discredited after two world-class researchers, Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons, announced that they had a working cold fusion system but which, alas, no one could duplicate).
Allow me to digress for a moment to ask all of you who sent me messages in tones ranging from polite through to downright rude asserting that cold fusion has actually been successfully duplicated: If an experiment that demonstrates cold fusion has really been replicated in the real world by real scientists then why would the scientific community ignore something so profound? Everyone agrees that cold fusion would be a game changer and in itself would be a hugely important scientific discovery so why would anyone in the scientific community ignore an important, successful, and replicable experiment?
Rossi's E-Cat is claimed to use a secret catalyst to react hydrogen with nickel and, in the process, transmute the nickel into copper producing considerable heat. Whether this reaction works or not and if it does, exactly how it works, has been enormously contentious and the subject of numerous learned and amateur debates.
Rossi has previously conducted several demonstrations of the E-Cat and the publicly revealed results have done little to convince the skeptics but have driven the "Believers" into a frenzy of support, accusations of cover-ups by "The Man", and endless hyping of other energy generating solutions.
The skeptics fall into two camps: Those who flatly don't believe that Rossi's E-Cat could ever work at all, and those who take a rather more objective stance and, whether they are hopeful of a positive outcome or not, are deferring judgment until convincing results are produced.
I would include myself in the latter: I really hope the E-Cat works as claimed but I want to see proof; real, verifiable, scientifically valid proof.
Many of those who argue that the E-Cat is flat out impossible and that the whole thing is a mistake at best or a fraud at worst are serious scientists and, you have to admit, they have a point; how could something like the E-Cat work in defiance of known science?
Even so, to be completely dismissive of Rossi's claims would seem to be foolish as it is one thing to *believe* something is false based on your assumptions and quite another to be able to *prove* beyond a reasonable doubt that it is false.
While the hard core skeptics might be erring in one direction, the Believers are erring in a completely opposite way. Despite a lack of solid evidence and based on the slim, unverifiable test data from the E-Cat trials revealed to date, they still just believe. They post in blogs, in forums, and on Web sites long and often impassioned arguments based on their interpretations of physics, quantum mechanics, chemistry, string theory, numerology, and maybe even the divination of goat entrails. I find most of these arguments impossible to understand let alone refute because unless you really are a real physicist or chemist (or goat entrails reader) the "proofs" are usually impenetrable jungles of mathematics (or entrails).
A subgroup of the Believers which I shall call the "Suppresists", appear to be firmly convinced that there is a conspiracy by commercial interests and or the government to prevent any device that upsets the energy economy status quo from being developed and made public. There is, of course, no objective, verifiable foundation to these claims but that doesn't seem get in the way of the "Suppresists" … disagree with them and you must be either ignorant or in the pay of "The Man."
The other sub-group I alluded to is the "It Has Already Been Solved" lobby. These people are convinced that company X or inventor Y has cracked the world energy problem and often argue vehemently that whatever Rossi is doing has already been done. They have sent me to Web sites where obscure companies show often fairly polished presentations of how their systems work and, in some cases, videos of supposedly working prototypes. Of course, there's never anything you can buy or, for that matter, any third party scientifically valid test results but that doesn't stop the "It Has Already Been Solved" lobby. They just believe.
From the way they argue I'd guess that many of the Believers probably also wear tin-foil hats. Some of the messages I've received from people who appear to be in this group are astounding not just for their lack of basic grammar but for their inability to express coherent thought.
So, before we look at the results of the E-Cat test on the 28th, what of Rossi and the E-Cat? Why has he been so cagey and secretive about the E-Cat and not permitted a reputable third party to conduct an objective performance test? Well, there appear to be two plausible explanations.
The first is that Rossi is honestly mistaken and he just believes the E-Cat works and produces excess energy when, in fact, it doesn't. This is something that has happened before (Pons and Fleischmann appear to have been similarly mistaken) but it's hard to believe as Rossi has been collaborating with a well-credentialed physicist and emeritus professor from Bologna University, Sergio Focardi. A failure of this kind would be a sad and unfortunate conclusion for all concerned as they would be discredited and reviled.
The other explanation is that the whole thing is a fraud and that the E-Cat doesn't work at all. This too is hard to swallow because there would be no obvious upside. What benefit could either Rossi or Focardi hope to gain?
Sure, there may be some money involved but I doubt whether it would be a large enough amount to justify what would be an usually elaborate and public hoax and whoever the funds came from would, almost certainly, start legal proceedings (if not retain the services of a "mechanic").
As with the case of the E-Cat being a mistake, the end result of it being a scam would also result in Rossi and Focardi being discredited and reviled. So unless Rossi has also discovered a way to vanish with the cash, the E-Cat being a fraud seems as unlikely as it being a mistake.
But here's what I find so odd about Rossi and his project: If the E-Cat works and Rossi is just being cagey to maximize the financial benefits, he's going about getting rich completely the wrong way. A working CF system (or, if you prefer, LENR system) would be one of most valuable, if not the most valuable, inventions in the history of mankind.
Quite inexplicably, Rossi has apparently choosen to go it alone and, it has been reported, has even sold his home to finance development of the E-Cat! This makes no sense. Rossi could have approached Bill Gates or Paul Allen or Warren Buffett or any of thousands of wealthy individuals and institutions and if the device could be proven to work, he would have been given a blank check! Should that not have been enough all he'd have to do is license the system at, say, $1 per year per kilowatt he'd become the richest person ever within a few years.
So, if Rossi isn't in it for the money, then what else could he be in it for? If his goal was the betterment of mankind, he's going about it in a very strange way. If it's for fame and glory, his current way of promoting the E-Cat makes no sense.
Whatever rationale Rossi has for the way he's developed, promoted, and presented the E-Cat is a complete mystery so we'll just have to wait to see how the whole drama plays out.
In the meantime, there's the matter of the results from the October 28 test.
Underwritten by an undisclosed US customer, the trial was held in Bologna with a ban on non-approved video of the test being justified by the customer's desire to keep its identity secret. A few photos and video clips have been published but little in the way of new details have been revealed.
Various reports claim that this run of what is the largest E-Cat system to date, which was targeted at producing one megawatt, actually produced around 470 kilowatts for five and a half hours. The reduced output was claimed to be due to some undisclosed technical problem which, given the apparent simplicity of the E-Cat system, is to say the least, disappointing.
There are reports from various attendees of the event. One of these, Sterling D. Allan, posted the following on his blog on pureenergysystems.com:
Probably the biggest opening for skeptics will be the continually running [generator] that is probably rated for 500 kW (my guess), and appears to have been connected by cables to the E-Cat. 'Where's the mystery?' So knock yourselves out, skeptics. It's the customer who has to be happy, and apparently this one was satisfied that those cables were not contributing to the 470 kW output during self-sustaining mode.
I find Allan's comments in this article to be far too partisan in tone to be completely objective– it appears that he believes in the E-Cat despite the obvious lack of what we might call a verifiably level playing field or any explanation for the large generator-sized bump on the pitch.
So, what to make of all this? The test was claimed to have worked satisfactorily by Allan and others, the customer was claimed to be satisfied with the results by Rossi, and everyone supposedly went home happy. But if the only people to whom Rossi cared about proving the E-Cat system works was the client then why did he bother letting outsiders witness the test at all?
Rossi has also announced that that's it; no more testing and the next we'll see of the E-Cat technology will be hand-built commercially available units that will sell for $2,000 per kilowatt. Rossi also expects mass-produced E-Cat systems to become available for around $100 per kilowatt.
So, as with the other E-Cat tests, we're really not much better off than we were prior to the 28th. We've got reports that sound exciting but there's still no real evidence. That's not to say some data doesn't exist but until a verifiably objective analysis is conducted by an independent third party that confirms the results match the claims there's no real news, which is utterly disappointing.
I want to see the oil economy disrupted and a clean, environmentally sound, endless, and incredibly cheap energy source transform the world in my lifetime. I want to believe that Rossi has the answer. But the longer it takes to see proof, the harder it becomes to believe in the E-Cat or cold fusion.

When losing weight try to keep pulse under 130 for cardio (more weight loss) and go for 30 minutes plus.
The most important thing when losing weight is the the diet. Try to aim for 5-6 meals a day of 300-400 calories each.
If you like chicken and turkey, its pretty much the best meat to eat (give the skin to the dog or whatever).
If you like fish, awesome for you, its the best meat for losing weight really, tuna(no oil) etc.

2009 Lexus IS350 F-Sport Photo Gallery
In 1983, Toyota Chairman Robert Simpson summoned a secret meeting of company executives, to whom he posed the question, "Can we create a luxury vehicle to challenge the world's best?" This question prompted Toyota to embark on a top-secret project, codenamed F1 which resulted in the Lexus division of luxury vehicles.
