Club news
The Sanford Woman's Club met Friday, March 1, at The Flame with 12 members, one new member and one visitor present. President Donese Pulley called the meeting to order, welcomed the members and guests, and led the group in salutes to the North Carolina and the American flags.
Esther Siler gave the devotion. She said that we should be conscious that we are given 1440 minutes each day to be used wisely.
Eloise Berryman, program chairman for March, introduced Avron Upchurch, Master Gardener. He presented a program on how to construct a greenhouse. He said plants need the same three things that humans need: moisture, sun and temperature. July, August and September are excellent months for cuttings. In his "Show and Tell" assembly, he constructed a greenhouse sharing items needed and the process needed to follow in preparing one. He informed members that they do not have to have a green thumb to be a successful gardener, only needed is desire and willingness. He introduced some new terms: node (point the plant will sprout), internode (distance between nodes) damping-off (once spout begins, remove plastic to prevent "damping-off"or decay).
The Feb. 1 minutes were read by Joyce Rosser, co-recording secretary, and approved.
Mary Upchurch gave the treasurer's report, which was approved.
During old business, President Pulley reported that the engraved gavel was purchased for the club. She thanked Pat Drury for procuring the new stand for the American and North Carolina flags.
Betty Lou Burns and Lora Mae Culberson reported that they contacted the Sanford City Director, Progress Energy and the Lee County Arts and Community Center Director about the lighting problems in the parking lot at the Lee County Arts and Community Center. A motion was made, seconded and approved that Betty Lou Burns, Lora Mae Culberson, Esther Siler and Donese Pulley meet with designated persons, obtain more information and report back to the club at a later date.
Lora Mae Culberson presented vinyl red and black scrapbooks for the official club scrapbook. The group voted to use the vinyl red scrapbook. The club thanked Lora Mae Culberson and Betty Lou Burns for their efforts in both the lighting and scrapbook projects.
Vivian Shaver was welcomed as a new member.
Esther Siler gave members a written survey and asked them to give their opinions about whether or not the club should remain with the District and State Federation or become independent. After much discussion, Mary Upchurch made a motion that the club table the matter until the next meeting, giving each member time to further research the matter and a vote will be taken in April. Pat Drury seconded the motion and the motion passed.
Bragging bucks were paid by Betty Lou Burns and Ruth Gurtis.
Each member was asked to give the treasurer one cent for each inch of their waist. In April, members are asked to put in twenty-five cents for the first 100 pounds of their weight, and one cent for each additional pound for the April Pennies fundraiser.
Ruth Gurtis led the club in a moment of silent prayer for Mary Brown, a long-time club member, who recently died.
The meeting was closed with the Club Collect. The next meeting will be held on April 5.
Sanford Lions Club members volunteered 164 man hours on March 15 and 16 providing free eye screening exams to 93 clients, according to project chairman George Kostrewa. The new and larger Vision Van provided by the N.C. Lions Foundation was located in the parking lot of Piggly Wiggly Grocery Store on South Horner Blvd.
In addition to various eye-sight tests, the new van is equipped to test hearing. Those with poor sight and/or hearing results were recommended for professional examination and treatment. Kostrewa said 27 Lions volunteered for the project. They were Ish Rivera, Johnny Poindexter, Lindsay Jones, Richard Holshouser, Michael Wicker, Brenda Wicker, Steve Stoutzenberger, Glenn Stubits, Dan Hruby, Darrell Sapp, Tim Smith, Willard Garren, Phil Gurkin, Stewart Monti, Hal Siler, Everett Cox, Bonita Cox, Bob Hughes, Alex Novosel, Joe Johnson, Mark Arey, Anne Edens, Richard Hendley and Woody Seymour.
Kostrewa thanked everyone for their participation and especially the management of Piggly Wiggly for their outstanding cooperation and assistance. The Lions Vision Van will return to Sanford this summer for a visit at Wal-Mart parking lot.
Lion Jim Romine, chairman of the club's annual Lions Golf Tournament, reported that plans for the Saturday, June 1, event at Quail Ridge Golf Course are progressing with club members still contacting area businesses for hole sponsorships. Supporters are urged to become $100 hole sponsors as a way of helping the Lions fund its many charitable programs.

President Dossenbach called on Tony Lett for the Rotary Minute. Lett shared an article from Rotary International News. He encouraged all Rotarians to talk about their involvement in Rotary with co-workers, friends and acquaintances. It is important to inform people of the club's good works in the community and internationally.
David Nestor introduced the program on The Sanford Arts and Vine Festival, by Jennifer St. Clair and Bob Joyce, of the Sanford Area Chamber of Commerce.

Guests on March 13 included Joseph and Maggie Lucas with their dad, Drew Lucas.
On March 13, Drew Lucas introduced Lauren Winkens, a board member with the Lee County Community Orchestra and the speaker for the day. This is the 25th anniversary, or the Silver Anniversary Season, for the LCCM, Winkens explained that the goal of this organization is to spread the joy of music. Prepared with a handout about the upcoming concert that was on March 16-17, she said that they have four concerts at various locations during the year.

President-Elect Andy Manhardt gave a short report on his attendance at PETS. Manhardt reported intense breakout sessions, great speakers and coming to the realization that a Rotary Club presidency begins a long time before taking office.
Nicolle Phair introduced Tamara Brogan, fitness counselor and instructor with Sanford Nautilus, for a program describing getting fit, not as a temporary fix, but as a way of life. If you want to tone up your muscles, slim down your girth, look and feel better, or just have additional energy for work and family, fitness training is for you. Any serious fitness regime should begin with a visit to the doctor to discuss any initial limitation one might need to incorporate into fitness training.
Any training session should begin with a five-minute warmup, including some stretching. Three days a week of cardio training, and two days each week of weight lifting might be a good fitness program. Include proper footwear, lots of water for hydration, and a five-minute cool down and stretch. Any exercise program should include proper attention to food nutrition.
President Mishler ended the meeting with the Four Way Test and the thought, "How come just one careless match can cause a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire."
Lee County High School football coach Burton Cates was guest speaker at the Jonesboro Rotary's March 21 meeting
A guest of Rich Trogdon, Cates has compiled a record of 260-104 during his 28-year head coaching career, 25 of them as the legendary coach at Eastern Randolph High School and the last four seasons at Lee Senior High School. Cates' teams have won nine conference championships and been to three state finals. Eastern Randolph won the 3-AA state championship in 2006. Moreover, by his calculation, 90 percent of his players have carried a 3.0 or better GPA.
Cates said he stresses four priorities in order for his players: 1) Belief in God, which includes weekly devotionals; 2) Family; 3) Academics; and 4) Football. Lee County won nine games last year, the most since 2005. However, even though Lee Senior is transitioning from 4A to 3A and into a new conference, Cates pointedly tried to temper expectations for next season.
Cates has been selected to serve as head coach of the North Carolina All-Stars at the 77th annual Shrine Bowl on Dec. 21, 2013.
Sgt. at Arms Jay Childress introduced the club's two guests, visiting Rotarian Joy Gilmour and Essie Jernigan, mother of President Michele Bullard. Van Sillaman reminded everyone that the annual raffle drawing is coming up.
Robert Gilleland reminded members that David Spivey's band would be playing at the Pittsboro Roadhouse General Store on Saturday, March 23.
Bragging Bucks — Gina Eaves plugged the Chamber of Commerce Annual Banquet and Fundraiser that evening, which she would not be able to attend because she would be at the Annual N.C. Press Association awards ceremony in Chapel Hill.
President Bullard asked the club to keep a Lee County woman and her family in their prayers. With her husband deployed in Afghanistan, the woman recently lost all her possessions when a fire destroyed the family's home.
Howard Bokhoven gave the weekly financial report. Larry Aiken, who won the weekly raffle, led the club in the Four-Way Rotary Test and Pledge of Allegiance.

BROOKINGS, S.D. — Sixth-ranked South Dakota State scored 34 consecutive points and the Jackrabbit offense rolled up 546 yards of total offense en route to a 55-14 season-opening victory over Butler (Ind.) Saturday night at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium. Walter Payton Award candidate Zach Zenner wasted little time in putting the Jackrabbits on the board. Zenner, a junior from Eagan, Minn., ran for 39 yards on his first carry of the season, then scampered 36 yards on the second play of the drive for a touchdown only 45 seconds into the game and the rout was on. Quarterback Austin Sumner moved into sixth place on the Jackrabbit career passing chart finishing the night 22-of-32 passing for 326 yards and three touchdowns. The junior from Brandon hooked up with eight different receivers. Backup Nate Meyer was 3-for-3 passing for 32 yards and his first collegiate touchdown pass. Zenner tallied 117 yards on 16 carries. Of his 117 yards, 93 came in the first quarter. Butler was limited to 272 yards of total offense.

Pretty Little Liars
Ali Is Red Coat? Pretty Little Liars Season 3 Finale's Big Reveal!
Warning: This article contains MAJOR spoilers for the Pretty Little Liars Season 3 finale (Season 3, Episode 24: "A dAngerous gAme").
In the Pretty Little Liars Season 3 finale, Red Coat was finally revealed. And as we'd suspected, she turned to be Alison DiLaurentis (Sasha Pieterse). Probably. Like, 90 percent sure it's her.
Here's the deal. In the finale, someone from the "A" team (or someone dressed like "A" — perhaps from another team) set a house containing Aria (Lucy Hale), Emily (Shay Mitchell), Hanna (Ashley Benson), and Mona (Janel Parrish) on fire. The girls were eventually rescued by someone who Hanna and Mona thought was Alison. Spencer, meanwhile, was trying to track Red Coat down in the woods. She caught a glimpse and also thought it was Ali.
But is that the only possibility? No. Frustratingly, there are still some ambiguities. For instance, Mona mentioned that Red Coat always wore a mask that made her look like Ali; it's possible that's what the girls saw, and in the dark and confusion thought it was really Ali's face. Plus, it could turn out it's actually Ali's identical twin.
However, evidence points to it really being Ali. The episode tag returned us to the scene we'd already seen at the end of the Season 3 Halloween episode, where Ali, after being buried alive, managed to dig her way out of the ground. In this episode tag, someone else grabbed her hand and pulled, theoretically rescuing her. So signs are definitely pointing to Ali being alive and the "A" leader.
What else did we learn about Big "A"? That no one, not even Mona, knows who she is. Apparently she came to Mona while she was in Radley and struck a deal — implying she wasn't in charge of the "A" team before that (probably?). However, Big "A" quickly took control, and Mona's not happy. As mentioned above, she doesn't know who Big "A" is because Big "A" always wore a mask.
Are you 100 percent convinced it's Ali, or are you still not sure?

Session TO3: Electron and Ion Beams
9:30 AM–12:06 PM, Thursday, November 20, 2008
Room: Reunion A
Chair: Gennady Shvets, University of Texas

Abstract: TO3.00006 : Nonequilibrium model of ultrafast laser induced electron emission from a dc-biased metallic surface

The production of very short electron bunches is critical for X-ray free electron lasers. Recently, many experiments have been conducted in using picosecond-laser or ultrafast laser to induce photo-field emission from a metallic sharp tip and the electron pulse is from 16 picoseconds down to 6 femtoseconds [1]. In this paper, we will present a nonequilibrium model to describe the low-power ultrafast laser excited electron emission from a metallic surface with a dc voltage. Using a microscopic kinetic approach, we determine the nonequilibrium electron distribution after the laser excitation, and calculate the time-dependence of the emitted electron charges and current density. It is found that the classical two temperature model valid of picosecond time scale is no longer valid when the pulse duration is less than 100 femtoseconds. Comparison with the experiments [1] and the transition to the ultrafast space charge limited current [2] will be demonstrated. \textbf{References} [1] R. Canter \textit{et al}., Phys. Rev.

Standard Theatre
203 Vine Street,
No one has favorited this theater yet
The Standard Theatre was located on Vine Street at North 2nd Street. Any further information or history on the Standard Theatre would be appreciated.
Recent comments (view all 5 comments)
A movie ad in the Camden website shows that it was open as of May 1934, with a showing of Will Rogers in "David Harum".
A Wurlizter organ, opus 632, was installed in this theater on 3/14/1923.
Was this the same as the North Camden Theatre?
Going through the Images of America 'South Jersey Movie Houses' book the North Camden Theatre seems to be the only one at or even close to this location. In the Filn Daily Yearbook's between 1941 & 1950 there is no listing for a Standard Theatre but the North Camden Theatre (465 seats) is again the only theatre in this location.
The 'South Jersey Movie Houses' book stated that the North Camden Theatre went over to a live burlesque house in the late 1950's before closing for good. Could it have been re-named Standard Theatre at this time? The building (North Camden Theatre) is currently used as a church.
The Standard Theatre (203 Vine St. Camden) was not inlcuded in "South Jersey Movie Houses," as I did not have a photograph of it as a theatre. I believe the building is still standing, and used for storage of materials.

This had to be one of my favorite shoots! The best pictures come when your subject is relaxed and natural. Shooting Kiounis was a photographer's dream. He's easy going and fun to work with. In the graduating class of 2014, Kiounis is planning to attend ETBU to play football next fall. Our photoshoot was beast, and I know his football career will be too.

Wong Wins #1 Singles, but Portland State Defeats Bearcats, 6-1
SALEM, ORE. -- Joshua Wong (Sr., Hilo, HI/Hilo HS) of Willamette University won #1 singles over Antoine Bechmann of Portland State University, but the Vikings defeated the Bearcats in the team score, 6-1, on Sunday, Jan. 27 at Club Green Meadows in Vancouver, Wash.
It was the third dual match of the season for the NCAA Division I Vikings, who improved to 1-2 on the season. Willamette, which competes in NCAA Division III, was playing its first match of the year.
The match was played using the NCAA Division I team scoring system (7 points), in which the team winning two or three doubles matches receives one point in the team score. Each singles match was worth one point.
Wong, who is ranked #6 in singles in the West Region of NCAA Division III, downed Bechmann, 6-4, 6-4. It was Wong's 35th career singles win in spring competition.
Portland State won the remaining five singles flights, but one match involved a tie-breaker and one match lasted three sets.
At #2 singles, Lukas Kortus of PSU outlasted Will Cooper (Jr., Gresham, OR/Centennial HS) of WU in the first set, 7-6, by winning a tie-breaker, 6-3. Kortus took the second set, 6-3.
PSU's Zach Lubek prevailed at #5 singles, as he downed Jack Schreiber (So., Solana Beach, CA/The Grauer School), 6-2, 1-6, 6-1.
The match began with action in doubles. Alex Marx and Brent Wheeler of Portland State won #2 doubles over Cooper and Mathew Dees (Fr., Henderson, NV/Coronado HS) of Willamette, 8-2. PSU also triumphed at #3 doubles when Bechmann and Lubek downed Devin Abney (So., Shoreline, WA/Shorecrest HS/Univ. of Redlands) and Schreiber, 8-3.
Connor Gilmore and Abhinav Mishra of PSU were leading at #1 doubles against Wong and Sam Wexman (Fr., Tiburon, CA/Gamiscal HS), 7-3, but the match was not completed once the Vikings clinched the doubles point with wins in the bottom two flights.
The Bearcats will play an exhibition match against the University of Oregon Club team on Sunday, Feb. 3 in Eugene, Ore. Match time is scheduled for 9 a.m. (PST).

Mervyn's to Liquidate and Close; 3000 Northern California Employees Affected
October 18, 2008
With no more fight left in it, Hayward-based Mervyn's has decided to shut its doors for good. The retailer will be closing all of its approximately 150 stores. In Northern California, Mervyn's has more than 3,000 employees.
Locally, Mervyn's has a retail presence in San Jose, Milpitas, Campbell, Morgan Hill, Santa Clara, Fremont, Cupertino, Mountain View, Newark, Hayward, Dublin, San Mateo, Millbrae, and Redwood City in addition to a corporate headquarters facility in Hayward, and a 400,000 square foot distribution center on Fremont Blvd. in Fremont.
Mervyn's is the latest in a series of high profile retailers to go under. Over the past year or so, we have seen Levitz, Sharper Image, Linens N' Things, Shoe Pavilion, Steve and Barry's all succumb to economic and capital markets pressures, and they certainly won't be the last. Retailers such as Foot Locker, Starbucks, and many others have announced plans for store closures.

We're not going to lie: even now some part of our lizard brain recoils from Kevin Federline. It's not entirely our fault! Remember "Popozao"? Remember Britney's unpleasantness with the umbrella? Even four years and a half years after their divorce, our minds have a hard time wrapping themselves around the fact that KFed is…is…is actually a nice guy! "I'm really happy for her," Kevin told Australia's TV Week about Britney Spears' engagement to Jason Trawick. "She's happy; she's doing really well. I want to say she's in a good place." About Trawick himself, Federline adds, "I've spoken to him quite a few times as of now. He seems like a really good guy. The kids speak highly of him [and] her family loves him." But…those Frappacinos years! Defenses…weakening. Hatred for KFed…dissipating.
Federline, who is currently shooting the celeb weight loss show Excess Baggage Down Under, is currently canoodling with girlfriend Victoria Prince, with whom he had baby Jordan Key in August. "She's more than I could ever have hoped for," Kevin said of his lady love. "Hopefully Britney feels the same way." Oh wow, that is sweet. Hmm, now if only we could figure out what would get us past his egregious performance of "Lost Control" at Teen Choice Awards in 2006? Oh right…KFed's also a good father to their sons Jayden James and Sean Preston. Wow, it feels good to let go.

Rx drug information, pharmaceutical research, clinical trials, news, and more
Codeine may increase serum amylase levels.
Acetaminophen may produce false-positive test results for urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid.
No adequate studies have been conducted in animals to determine whether acetaminophen and codeine have a potential for carcinogenesis or mutagenesis. No adequate studies have been conducted in animals to determine whether acetaminophen has a potential for impairment of fertility.
Acetaminophen and codeine have been found to have no mutagenic potential using the Ames Salmonella-Microsomal Activation test, the Basc test on Drosophila germ cells, and the Micronucleus test on mouse bone marrow.
Pregnancy Category C: Codeine: A study in rats and rabbits reported no teratogenic effect of codeine administered during the period of organogenesis in doses ranging from 5 to 120 mg/kg. In the rat, doses at the 120 mg/kg level, in the toxic range for the adult animal, were associated with an increase in embryo resorption at the time of implantation. In another study a single 100 mg/kg dose of codeine administered to pregnant mice reportedly resulted in delayed ossification in the offspring.
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Acetaminophen and codeine phosphate should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Dependence has been reported in newborns whose mothers took opiates regularly during pregnancy. Withdrawal signs include irritability, excessive crying, tremors, hyperreflexia, fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. These signs usually appear during the first few days of life.
Following an acute overdosage, toxicity may result from codeine or acetaminophen.
Codeine: Toxicity from codeine poisoning includes the opioid triad of: pinpoint pupils, depression of respiration, and loss of consciousness. Convulsions may occur.
Acetaminophen: In acetaminophen overdosage: dose-dependent, potentially fatal hepatic necrosis is the most serious adverse effect. Renal tubular necrosis, hypoglycemic coma and thrombocytopenia may also occur.
Early symptoms following a potentially hepatotoxic overdose may include: nausea, vomiting, diaphoresis and general malaise.Clinical and laboratory evidence of hepatic toxicity may not be apparent until 48 to 72 hours post-ingestion.
In adults hepatic toxicity has rarely been reported with acute overdoses of less than 10 grams, or fatalities with less than 15 grams.
A single or multiple overdose with acetaminophen and codeine is a potentially lethal polydrug overdose, and consultation with a regional poison control center is recommended.
Immediate treatment includes support of cardiorespiratory function and measures to reduce drug absorption. Vomiting should be induced mechanically, or with syrup of ipecac, if the patient is alert (adequate pharyngeal and laryngeal reflexes). Oral activated charcoal (1 g/kg) should follow gastric emptying. The first dose should be accompanied by an appropriate cathartic. If repeated doses are used, the cathartic might be included with alternate doses as required. Hypo-tension is usually hypovolemic and should respond to fluids. Vasopressors and other supportive measures should be employed as indicated. A cuffed endotracheal tube should be inserted before gastric lavage of the unconscious patient and, when necessary, to provide assisted respiration.
Meticulous attention should be given to maintaining adequate pulmonary ventilation. In severe cases of intoxication, peritoneal dialysis, or preferably hemo-dialysis may be considered. If hypoprothrombinemia occurs due to acetaminophen overdose, vitamin K should be administered intravenously.
Naloxone, a narcotic antagonist, can reverse respiratory depression and coma associated with opioid overdose. Naloxone hydrochloride 0.4 mg to 2 mg is given parenterally. Since the duration of action of codeine may exceed that of the naloxone, the patient should be kept under continuous surveillance and repeated doses of the antagonist should be administered as needed to maintain adequate respiration. A narcotic antagonist should not be administered in the absence of clinically significant respiratory or cardiovascular depression.
If the dose of acetaminophen may have exceeded 140 mg/kg, acetylcysteine should be administered as early as possible. Serum acetaminophen levels should be obtained, since levels four or more hours following ingestion help predict acetaminophen toxicity. Do not await acetaminophen assay results before initiating treatment. Hepatic enzymes should be obtained initially, and repeated at 24-hour intervals.
Methemoglobinemia over 30% should be treated with methylene blue by slow intravenous administration.
Toxic Doses (for adults): Acetaminophen: toxic dose 10 g Codeine: toxic dose 240 mg
This product should not be administered to patients who have previously exhibited hypersensitivity to codeine or acetaminophen.
CAPITAL® AND CODEINE ORAL SUSPENSION (Acetaminophen and Codeine Phosphate oral suspension) is classified as a Schedule V controlled substance.
Codeine can produce drug dependence of the morphine type and, therefore, has the potential for being abused. Psychological dependence, physical dependence, and tolerance may develop upon repeated administration and it should be prescribed and administered with the same degree of caution appropriate to the use of other oral narcotic medications.

Finding your way to using business leads
By The PT Services Group
The PT Services Group
Looking back at 2010, amid sweeping political reform and global financial uncertainty, our industry has been changing. Just two years ago, the leading edge of more than 76 million baby boomers reached retirement age. The succeeding generations are more connected, and better informed than their seniors thanks to the proliferation of information online and increased connectivity in social networks.
Many advisers and brokers are finding themselves faced with a question; either change the way they are meeting new prospects or quietly ease into retirement. Many of you built very successful businesses through traditional marketing methods and referrals. However, the fact remains that the most successful producers today are expanding their business by constantly meeting with new prospects every day.
With business leads, producers can find a higher, more consistent volume of prospects, as well as increased potential revenue. Through consultative selling, successful agents are able to cross sell multiple solutions to business owners according to their needs. Still, the notion of switching from traditional referrals and advertising to outsourcing your prospecting engine can be intimidating. As in most business ventures, the extra work required up front can yield to significant ROI and a successful campaign.
Using a qualified lead provider can open the door to introduce you to more business owners who need advice from a professional. The quality of data that you have about your prospect is paramount in getting you in front of the decision maker to provide the solutions that companies today need to maintain financial security.
You may have the best products available, the highest level of education and top notch customer service, but if you aren't meeting qualified prospects daily, it is likely your business has reached a plateau. In the same manner, volumes of information and prospect leads are just as worthless without the right tools and strategies in place to convert those prospects into clients.
In the coming weeks, Bravura Leads will provide a series of best practices to help you succeed in converting prospects into clients. Check back on Mondays to read how to best prepare, persist and present yourself using our business data to maximize your ability to increase your business.

It is almost tournament time for Minnesota boy's hockey teams and in Class A, the Northland is guaranteed to have one team in the Semifinals as Duluth Marshall and Hermantown clash in the Quarterfinals.
Hermantown edged Marshall 4-3 on January 3rd in the regular season and both can't wait for State.
"I don't really have an words to describe the feeling, it just feels great. We have high hopes and want to get back to that title game and redeem ourselves," says Hermantown Senior Wing Bo Gronseth.
"It is a dream come true and we knew when we got healthy that we were going to start rolling again and we were going to build our confidence because it is hard to win games when you have got guys injured," says Duluth Marshall Senior Goalie Caden Flaherty.
The Hilltoppers and Hawks battle at 1:00 pm Wednesday afternoon at the Xcel Energy Center. You can watch that game on WDIO/WIRT-TV.

Pitch it low — or high
Change your trajectory by altering your grip pressure
Davis Love Jr., who died in a small-plane crash in 1988, was well known as a great teacher. But not many know that Davis Jr., father of Davis III, was also a very good player. He tied for the lead after one round in the 1964 Masters, and he tied for fifth with Jack Nicklaus in the 1969 British Open at Royal Lytham.
Davis pitched the ball magically at that year's British Open, despite firm and windy conditions. He later told me one of the secrets to great pitching is controlling your trajectory. The way to do that, he said, is by adjusting your grip pressure.
Davis said that to hit high pitches, grip the club softly -- I'd recommend a 2 or 3 on a 10-point scale, 10 being the firmest. This allows the club to release freely and adds loft as it slides under the ball through impact.
For low pitches, grip the club more firmly -- a 6 or 7. This allows you to keep the grip end ahead of the ball, which stabilizes the clubface through impact, keeping its loft constant.
When you practice pitches, use one club and vary your grip pressure. See for yourself how it affects your trajectory.
FLICK, a longtime Golf Digest Teaching Professional and PGA Golf Professional Hall of Famer, worked with hundreds of amateurs and tour players including Jack Nicklaus.

Below is the poem entitled Super Soupers which was written by poet
Lamoureux. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Richard Lamoureux
It was a rainy day so I flipped through a stack of comics
My Amazing Poet series
Finally I picked the fabulous Five
I liked the picture on the front
Yanny the Zen Master with long black hair
Becca the Creative and Beautiful with her mythical pen
One of my favorites sultry Eileen known as the Emotionator
Anne the Philosopher was right there beside Eileen with her magical smile
Then to round out this team was Vicky Victorious calling from the wilderness
In this edition they were battling the Poet Destroyer and Joker Jack
who had kidnapped Newbie Timothy Hicks
As I read their words I was in awe of my Heros
They made me cry
They brought me to new worlds
Filled with adventures
Sexy had new meaning
Tears became diamonds
Winds swirled inside my head
All the emotions of the rainbow
I longed to write with such clarity and strength
I tried to flex my poetic Muscles
Worked out every day
Then on the back of the comic
A scrawny poet sat on a beach
Beside the girl of his dreams
He is writing for her when along comes a muscular poet
The big poet kicks metaphorical sand in his face
The the scrawny poets girl is whisked away
Underneath it says
Are you tired of having Metaphorical sand kicked in your face?
Are other Poets getting the girl?
All that can change
Join the Andrea Dietrich School of Creative Poetry
She will have you writing like The Fabulous Five
You will never be afraid to flex those poetic muscles again
So I cut out the back page and sent my five dollars
The address is PO Box 88888 Inspiration California
Now all I can do is wait
What will the future Hold?
Note there are many Poets here who would appear in my vast Amazing poet series.
Poet Destroyer and Joker Jack are not Evil nemeses they were chosen for the roll
because of their names( also I love their work.) I hope you enjoyed my little tale.
Some of the younger poets may not be familiar with the Charles Atlas ads that used
to be on the back of comics, the rest of you I am sure will get the joke.
