Managing a Horse With Tender Teeth
March 3, 2014
The owner of a horse who fights the unbridling process seeks advice from a trustworthy professional.
I have a 6-year-old gelding that will readily take the bit, but when you go to drop the bit (unbridle) no matter how careful, he pulls back violently. I've tried different bits with the same reaction. He's a performance horse and is ridden almost daily. I've noticed his upper and lower canine teeth seem longer than most. Could it be they need to be ground down so he can drop the bit easier? I've owned him about 10 months and this problem seems to be getting worse.
The American Association of Equine Practitioners has some great advice for this horse owner:
I wonder if, when you unbridle, you are inadvertently "dropping" the bit and allowing it to hit the canine teeth? I would also like you (or your equine veterinarian) to examine your horse's canines to see if they have previously been aggressively "rounded" or "shortened." This can potentially damage the pulp canal in the tooth, making the tooth susceptible to further injury and damage. This could also cause the canine tooth to be more sensitive than normal.
The pulp canal in the canine tooth is large; It is possible to damage the pulp if we "don't know what we are doing." I do not like to be overly aggressive with these teeth for this reason. I hope that this information will help you.

Quick Preseason Workout to Improve your Golf Swing
As warm weather approaches, it is time for you to get ready to play golf again. As all golfers know, it is easy to start feeling tired early on in the season. Your swing can also suffer, because the rotational muscles of the shoulder and torso still feel the cramp of being unused all winter. This may take a toll on your scores, or worse still, may cause injuries.
A preseason workout routine is highly recommended for golfers. It involves as much stretching as possible because tension is the enemy of a well-coordinated golf swing. "Tempo" is a term often used by golf swing coaches, and it refers to the natural rhythm of a good golf swing. These exercises loosen and lengthen the muscles of your shoulder and torso, which helps you develop a consistent tempo more easily. So, the sooner these exercises make it into your daily routine, the more fun you'll have during those first few rounds on the course.
It's important to begin with 5-10 minutes of light cardio exercise, just running in place or jumping jacks will do. This allows warm blood to fill your muscles, thereby loosening them and making the following stretches more effective. Allow yourself to breathe naturally, and take full, deep breaths as you're performing these stretches.
Head rolls – 30-60 seconds: Roll your ear gently to one side, toward your shoulder. Tilt your head back, then forth, and repeat on the other side. This relaxes the tension in the neck, and encourages shoulder flexibility.
Shoulder stretching – 2-3 minutes: Raise your right arm directly in front of you, then bring it to the left, wrapping your left elbow around your right arm and using it to gently bring your right arm closer to your chest. You will feel the stretch in your outer right shoulder. Reverse this process for the left side. This allows for much greater range of motion and smoother rotation in your golf swing, which translates into more consistent shot making.
Side stretching – 1-2 minutes: Raise your right arm directly above your head with your feet shoulder-width apart. Lean your shoulders to the left and sway your right hip slightly out. You will feel a stretch along the right side of your body from your finger tips to toes. Reverse this process for the left side of your body. This stretch targets the outside of your arms, outer hips, and most importantly, your abdomen, which will further enhance your rotational stability and flexibility.
This routine can also be incorporated into a weight-lifting routine that focuses on developing the core muscles of your back and abdomen, as well as your shoulder muscles and hip flexors. Sit-ups, crunches, and push-ups are good exercises for when you're unable to make it to the gym. Use this routine twice, when you're warming up and cooling down, for best results.
The exercises discussed above are just a few basic exercises that you can do to get fit for golf. Are there any other exercises that had a positive impact on your golf swing? Please share your experience in the comments section.

Focus In on the Right Optics
Keeping your eye on the target is a whole lot easier with today's optics. Optimizing your hunting performance with the right scope requires understanding optic features and assessing your hunting preferences.
Hunting optics can range in price from $30 to $2,000 . . . with plenty of choices in-between. The decision of what to buy is made tougher because a 4 x 32 scope that costs $30 may not appear to be much different than one that costs $200.
Lenses are the major difference between hunting optics. The least expensive scopes typically use plastic lenses. The next step up in quality and price involves the use of glass lenses. Coatings added to glass lenses enhance brightness in low light situations and add a bit more cost. The most expensive optics use precision ground glass, similar to eye glasses.
Here are a few other tips to keep in mind when shopping for optics:
The power of a scope is described by two numbers that indicate its magnifying ability and the size of the lens.
A standard 4 x 32 scope will magnify an object up to 4 times larger than you could see with the naked eye. The 32 indicates that the lens diameter is 32 millimeters.
The larger the second number, the lens diameter, the more it will help brighten the view.
Fixed Power
The magnification set by the manufacturer.
Fixed power scopes are adequate for hunters who need a good view of 50 to 100 yards.
The most popular fixed scopes are 4 x 32.
Variable Power
More applicable to a wider range of uses.
Variable power scopes can be adjusted according to the field of view needed as well as the available light.
Variable scopes range from 1.5 magnification up to 25 times for long-range viewing and shooting.
Field of View
How much you can see through your scope at 1,000 yards.
Generally, the higher the magnification, the less the field of view.
This information is always printed either on the instruction sheet or directly on the scope.
Eye Relief
The distance between your eye and the scope, which allows you to achieve the entire field of view.Can be adjusted once you have your scope and have it mounted.
The final key to selecting the right scope is assessing how you hunt. Hunting in the woods with shadows and less light requires a different scope than hunting in open fields with plenty of sun. Think about how you hunt, where you hunt and what the typical conditions are. Selecting the right optics becomes a lot easier when you can match your hunting needs with the right lens, power and view.

A fundamental maxim of hunting is for you to see the prey before the prey sees you. This is why hunting blinds are so popular. They provide concealment for you, as well as a comfortable place to wait for that prey to appear. Whether you hunt deer, elk, turkey or waterfowl, blinds let you pick the perfect spot, help you blend into the environment, and protect you from the elements.
Buying a Blind
The obvious first question to ask is what are you hunting? Duck blinds and deer blinds are two completely different, well, animals. Waterfowl blinds can be set up on land or water. With deer blinds the fundamental question is bow or rifle. A bow means you'll need more interior space. Draw your bow all the way back and then leave some wiggle room beyond that. You will also need some extra space depending on some other factors. For example, if you bring your son along, you'll want more than a one-person blind. And if you travel via ATV you'll want a blind big enough to hold the vehicle.
You also need to look at what you are hunting and the way you hunt it. Scent control is critical for deer, so you'll want blinds with scent control fabrics. For turkey, that's really not an issue. Camouflage is important, but don't just assume any pattern will work. Take a look at the camouflage on the blind and make sure it will blend into the area you're actually going to hunt in. Whether you stand or kneel will determine where you want visibility. Also, blinds with windows, screens or doors in all directions give maximum flexibility and the widest fields of fire. Portability is another big factor if you plan on moving often from site to site. Blinds vary greatly in how easy they are to transport and set up. If your site is semi-permanent, portability is not as big an issue.
Location, Location, Location
Just as in real estate, location is everything in hunting from a blind. Of course, you could say the same thing about any kind of hunting. You'll want a high traffic location where you can blend in to your environment. That means finding appropriate cover. The best camouflaged cover in the world will stand out if it's in an open field. Try to add bushes and/or tree branches to enhance the natural look and feel. If possible walk the area before you hunt it. Look for food supplies, cover and routes between the two. If possible, set up your blind a week or so before the actual hunt. That way the deer will get used to it.
But there is also an advantage to a portable blind. It lets you take into account prevailing winds so you don't give away your scent. Try to identify several good areas for the blind and then you can set up in the best one for that day's wind patterns.
Location and blending in are also important for duck blinds. You want to be on or near the water in an area you know ducks will be present. A high vegetation area will help attract ducks and will also help you camouflage the blind. You can cover the blind in camouflage netting to match the area, and cut a slit in the front where you are going to shoot.
Ultimately, the ducks will tell you how well your blind is set up. If circling ducks tend to fly away from your blind, you need to make some changes.
Tree Stands
Tree stands are another effective way to hunt deer. Their height gives you better visibility while preventing the deer from seeing you. While they may not be as comfortable as a blind, they give you clearer shots by allowing you to shoot over limbs and branches. There are four types of stands:
Ladder – Essentially a small platform at the top of some steps. Great for people who don't want to climb and/or are insecure at height. Stable, but also heavy, not very portable and take time to set up.
Climbing – Involves two pieces, a chair and a platform below it. Allows you to 'climb' the tree while in the stand. Portable and easy to set up, but only for certain trees and for people comfortable at heights.
Hang-on (Lock-on) – This has a seat and footrest attached to the tree. Popular because of their versatility, they are lightweight, easy to set up and will fit most trees. The disadvantage is you have to carry the steps and climb the tree.
Tower – Not a stand, per se, but a separate platform with 3 or 4 legs. It's necessary in areas without trees. It's the only real alternative in prairie-like environments. It is comfortable and stable, but not at all portable.

Getting Cozy With A Crossbow
Used correctly, the crossbow is an accurate and reliable weapon.
Riding a wave of relaxed hunting regulations and good results in the field, the crossbow has become the weapon of choice for many hunters. "The crossbow market is still growing," said Jackie Allen of Barnett Crossbows, " and we're happy to be part of it."
The crossbow's surge in popularity is good news because it enables more hunters, but crossbow hunting is not something that should be rushed into without preparation. Like all weapons, a crossbow is only as accurate as the man or woman releasing the arrow.
Crossbow Basics
Hunting with a crossbow requires stalking capability, because you must get within 40 yards of the prey. But crossbow hunters have an advantage over bow hunters in that the crossbow can be pre-cocked, so when a deer is in range, the mechanics of shooting are less likely to spook it.
Two types of crossbows are in general use today: compound and recurve. Both offer advantages. A compound crossbow is capable of generating more energy, but a recurve crossbow produces less vibration and is quieter. A recurve crossbow can be serviced in the field if the string breaks, while string replacement on a compound crossbow is more complex.
Shooting either type of crossbow is a matter of drawing the string until it locks into place, loading an arrow, releasing the safety and pulling the trigger. Crossbow arrows — sometimes called bolts — are shorter and heavier than standard arrows. As with all weapons, a steady hold is essential.
A crossbow should never be fired withour an arrow loaded. Doing so can damage the bow. It's also important to use arrows of the size and weight recommended by the crossbow manufacturer to ensure good performance.
While many crossbows make excellent hunting weapons, some are easier to use than others. The Quad 400 Xtreme is one of the most hunter-friendly compound crossbows available and is capable of delivering a 400-grain arrow at a speed of 345 feet per second. It's available at Dunham's in a package that includes a 4×32 multi-reticle scope, a quiver with three arrows and a crank cocking device that makes it possible for hunting.
Many factors affect accuracy, including damaged arrows, misaligned sights or scopes, hunter technique and mechanical defects. When shooting with a recurve crossbow, it's important to achieve an even draw when cocking. In other words, if one of the crossbow's limbs is displaced more than the other, the arrow won't fly true. A compound crossbow will generally draw equally if it is in good mechanical condition, but care should be exercised when cocking.
Crossbow hunters should do some target shooting before going out in the field. This will not only allow time to achieve a smooth and steady release, but will also provide an opportunity to sight in your weapon and compensate for arrow drop over distance.
All crossbows have a sighting system that compensates for drop at a specific arrow speed and range, usually 20 to 50 yards. This compensation allows you to aim directly at your target. When the arrow leaves the crossbow, it drops continuously until it reaches the target. So a properly calibrated sighting device will cause the arrow to leave the weapon on an upward trajectory when you aim directly at your target. The arrow will then travel in an arc and arrive at the target.
Since arrow drop is continuous, the sighting adjustment is only correct within a specific range. But many sighting devices are gauged with multiple reference points that allow accurate aim at varying distances. Some scopes display reticles, essentially lines, while others use dots. A three-dot scope, for example, might be set up accurate targeting at distances of 20, 30 and 40 yards. Range-finding reticle scopes are equipped with a scale that allows you to measure distance from target before selecting a reference point.
Sighting-in your scope is critical and best accomplished with a stationary target and the arrow you'll use in the field. All scopes have an adjuster for windage, which determines the targeting accuracy left and right of center, and another for elevation, which dials in targeting above and below center.
Begin by shooting from 10 yards away to make sure you're in the ballpark. If your results are close to target center, move out to 20 yards away. IF they're not even close, your scope might be incorrectly installed or way our of adjustment. At 20 yards, you should be able to achieve a tight grouping of three shots within a 3-inch circle.
If you can't achieve a tight grouping, there's no point in twisting adjustment screws. you should practice your aim and make sure you're shooting with a smooth motion and steady grip. Once you achieve a tight circle, you can tweak the adjustments to position your grouping of arrows at the target center. If your group of three arrows is consistently to the left or right of the bulls eye, you should turn the windage adjustment to compensate. Similarly, if the group is above or below the bulls eye, you should turn the elevation adjustment to compensate. Then retest and make further adjustments if necessary.
If your scope has multiple reticles or dots, you should dial in the top line or dot for your minimum shooting distance, then the other dots or lines will serve as targeting marks for longer distances. So if the top dot of a three-dot scope is adjusted for accuracy at 20 yards, the two lower dots may will be accurate at 30 and 40 yards. Test and verify. The extra time on the range will serve you well in the field.

Who Says Roughing it Has to be Rough?
Ahh, the peace and tranquility of camping in the great outdoors! There's nothing like it. The fresh air, the sounds of nature, the beautiful lakes, and sleeping under a blanket of stars.
Oh, wait — don't forget the biting bugs, the risk of getting lost in uninhabited wilderness, and the lack of toilet paper and running water. On second thought, maybe camping isn't quite the summer vacation you had in mind. But, before you roll up your sleeping bag and pack up your cooler, give Mother Nature a second chance. Camping can be a great vacation option — and it's fast becoming one of the most popular activities.
In fact, with uncertainties about the economy, falling home values, rising food prices, and a big decline in consumer spending, many people are looking to their own backyards for a "staycation" getaway — otherwise known as a more affordable vacation spent at or near home.
When you consider the fact that for less than the cost of a hotel room and meals in restaurants, a family can enjoy a weekend getaway camping, it's not surprising that last year alone, nearly 33.7 million Americans chose to visit local campgrounds for backpacking, hiking and camping, while many others chose to pitch a tent right out their own back door.
If you're one of the millions who'll be roasting marshmallows over an open fire (or over the BBQ in the backyard), you may want to think about a few small investments that can make your camping experience memorable and fun without breaking the bank.
First, let's talk about the most important piece of equipment for any type of camping excursion — the tent. It's the staple of your outdoor stay — regardless of where you're staying.
Tents can vary in size, shape, weight and price, and Dunham's has something for everyone. From smaller tents like the Coleman Sun Dome and the Eureka! Apex 2XT, to a family tent like the Browning Cottonwood tents or the World Famous 18 x 10 tent, you're sure to find one that will fit your needs.
Keep in mind, if you're camping away from home, it's a good idea to practice putting up your tent in the back yard before the trip. A dark rainy night is not the time you want to try to figure out which pole goes where!
Sleeping bags are also a necessity. You'll want a bag that will keep you comfortable in different climates, so unless you plan to camp in the extreme cold, Coleman suggests a three-season bag that will handle temperatures that drop to about 30 degrees. That said, if you're someone who likes to pile on extra blankets at night, you might want to opt for a bag that is colder-rated.
Regardless of where you're camping, you'll also need a place to cook your food. If you're doing the backyard thing, your BBQ grill is a handy option. However, if you're staying at a campsite, you'll need to bring your own stove or use a grill that's located on the premises. (While many sites do have grills for use, you'll want to make sure to pack your own charcoal, lighter and lighter fluid.)
Speaking of cooking, you'll want to make sure you have paper plates, napkins, utensils (disposable or metal), and of course, some sort of table to eat on. While most campsites have picnic tables available for use, there are several inexpensive folding tables on the market should you choose to purchase one. Again, if you're roughing it in the backyard, your patio table will make a great picnic setting.
Flashlights, matches and lanterns are also important to have when camping. And, while you backyard campers can certainly use your porch light, an "official" camping lantern makes the experience feel more authentic.
So, now that you know the basics of what you'll need to pack, have you figured out what you'll do once you're there? Well, here are a few suggestions to help make your family camping trip (home or away) a fun experience for everyone:
Make s'mores. Everyone loves them, and they are easy to make. Just toast marshmallows over a fire and then place between two graham crackers and a piece of chocolate.
Give your kids 10-15 minutes to go on a nature hunt. Have them find things like "the biggest green leaf," or "the smoothest rock." Gather back at the campsite and talk about what you found.
Play flashlight tag. Every player gets a flashlight and everyone runs around the yard — or campsite, hiding from the flashlight beams while trying to spot other players with flashlights.
Remember, with a little preparation, and the right equipment, camping can be an exciting, inexpensive vacation option for the whole family. So lace up your hiking boots, pack up the cooler, and get ready to enjoy the great outdoors. It will be a trip you'll never forget.
Important tips to keep in mind when camping away from home:
Pack items that have multiple uses — this cuts down on the amount of gear you have to take. For example, a poncho packs easily and can be used as a rain jacket, a windbreaker, a ground cloth or a mosquito shield.
Wear comfortable shoes — a hike in the woods could turn into a host of blisters if your shoes are too tight — or not the appropriate material for the terrain.
Dress in layers — this way, you can take clothing off if you get too warm — and put it back on when the weather starts to cool off.
Always let people know where you are going and when you plan to return — chances are, everything will be fine, but if something does happen, someone will know where to send help.
Other things to pack:
–First aid kit (bandages, cold compress, calamine lotion, antihistamine, aspirin/similar pain reliever, antibacterial ointment)
–Bug spray
–Plastic bags (storage for food, wet items, outdoor objects you find)
-Happy Camper

As Close as Your Own Backyard
It's summer, and the backyard beckons.
What better way to spend a sunny summer day than with the family in your own backyard? No need to ponder where to go and what to do. Forget the travails of travel and parking.
At one time, fun in the backyard meant badminton or croquet. No wonder most of us hit the road looking for entertainment. But today there are a wide variety of outdoor games from which to choose; games the family can enjoy together.
To give you an idea of some of the great choices in backyard entertainment, we've put together brief descriptions of some of the games families enjoy most.
Poles by Watersports LLC
This is a new game that makes the flying disc more fun than ever. All you need to play are two game poles, a flying disc and a couple of empty water bottles. The poles are illuminated for night play and have a sturdy base that keeps them upright. They come packed in a carrying case along with the flying disc.
To play, the poles are placed 20 to 30 feet apart and an empty water bottle is placed atop each pole. The object of the game is to knock the bottle from the top of the pole with a flying disc. Players throw the disc from behind their pole toward the opposition's pole. A direct hit on the bottle or a hit on the pole that causes the bottle to fall results in a score. Two or more can play, with teammates taking turns.
Corntoss Bean Bag Game
From Driveway Games comes a weatherproof version of this classic target game. Competitors toss plastic-filled beanbags at portable plastic game boards. The competition is scored similar to horseshoes and offers hours of entertainment for two to four players. Packed in a storage bag, the game includes a rulebook and setup guide.
Stream Machine Water Guns
Put on those bathing suits and get out the water guns! Stream Machine hydrobolic water launchers from Watersports LLC can shoot water up to 70 feet. Quick and easy to fill, they're the perfect choice for serious water battles. Stream Machines are available in a variety of sizes, so there's one to fit the smallest or largest of hands. A double barrel model doubles the fun.
BAGGO® Bag Toss
BAGGO® is a popular backyard game where two or four players toss beanbag-like toss bags of unpopped corn at plastic targets. The game comes with toss bags, game boards, built-in scorekeepers, and an instruction manual. Toss a bag in the game board's hole and score three points, a bag on the board scores one. The first player or team to reach 21 wins.
Tournament Gold Volleyball
Volleyball is an active game that will get the family moving. Sportcraft's Tournament Gold Volleyball set comes with heavy-duty poles, an easy-to-install, clip-on 32-ft x 3-ft net, an on-net scorekeeping system, an official volleyball, and an air pump.
Blongo Ball
Does your family blongo? From Blongo Family Fun comes this new game that will provide hours of entertainment. Bounce blongo balls — two golf balls joined by a foot of rope — onto the rungs of a ladder-like stand to earn points. According to the manufacturer, the game does not require athletic skill.
Kan Jam
This disc-tossing game from Kan Jam LLC is fast-paced fun for four players. One player from each team throws the disc toward the target "kan." If the thrower doesn't score a direct hit, a teammate tries to deflect it into or onto the kan. Points are awarded based on whether the disc strikes the can or lands in it. The first team to record an exact score of 21 wins. A direct toss into the kan's narrow slot is an instant win. The distance between the kans can be modified to accommodate players of various ages and ability.
Washer Toss
Ty Fun Trading Company's Washer Game provides tons of fun in just a wee bit of space. Players score points by tossing washers into a cup within a box. A toss into the cup counts for more than a toss into the box. Scoring is similar to horseshoes. More than two can play as teams. First player or team to score 21 points wins.
Jarts, Hula Hoops, and Hot Ropes
From Whamo and Fundex come classic backyard toys like the easy-to-learn but tough-to-master hula hoop. While hula hooping is usually a solo sport, Jarts is a game for two players or two teams. Large darts are tossed underhand toward a horizontal target on the ground. Jumping rope is great exercise for one or the whole gang, and vibrantly colored Hot Ropes bring high fashion to this favorite outdoor activity.
-Fun For All Ages

Fishing from kayaks has exploded in popularity over the past decade, and for good reason. These small personal watercraft offer several advantages to the angler over conventional boats — no need for a boat launch, no noisy motor to scare the fish, and a nimbleness that lets you get into those tight spots where fish like to hide and where typical fishing boats won't fit.
It's Personal
It would be hard to find a more personal outdoor activity than paddling a single-seat kayak (two- and four-seat kayaks are also available). You propel yourself and go exactly where you want to go, which gives you the freedom to escape the crowds and find nature on your own terms.
That personal character of a kayak is something to keep in mind when buying one.
You will be spending a lot of time in (or on) it, so be sure it fits you and you are completely comfortable. Lucian Gazel runs a kayak fishing guide service on the Great Lakes, and he says you can do that without actually putting a kayak in the water. "In the store, you can sit in the kayak, get a paddle and move your arms and you can tell right away if you're too restricted or if you have a good fit."
Your individual needs go beyond just how the kayak fits, however. Where you will use the kayak and where you will fish are also important. If you'll primarily fish in open water — large lakes — then stability may be more important. If you'll spend most of your time on rivers and smaller lakes, then mobility and nimbleness may be bigger priorities.
Accessorizing Your Kayak
While kayaks are able to go where conventional fishing boats can't, their relative smaller size means a whole different strategy on carrying your fishing "stuff." Space is at a premium, and you have to carefully plan how you'll carry rods, reels, tackle, bait and all the other gear you can just throw into a fishing boat.
So, what do you need and where do you put it? The experts agree that the key is to start slow. "I wouldn't buy any kind of fishing accessory for a kayak until I've had the kayak in the water at least 3 or 4 times," says Gazel. "The mistake kayak rookies often make is they put their rod holder in a place that interferes with their paddling. The problem is, once you've drilled that hole, you're pretty well stuck with it."
There are numerous accessories for the kayak angler — rod holders, storage for bait and fish, tackle boxes, running lights, anchors, drift chutes, seatbacks, paddle keepers, fish finders — the list goes on and on.
Kayak veterans say newcomers should keep things simple, at least at first. All you really need is a rod holder. Then, after a few trips you can adapt your kayak fishing gear to your own experiences. There's plenty of time to stock up on your "toys."
Catching Fish from a Kayak
Kayaks give you a built-in advantage of "stealth" fishing, and the ability to go just about anywhere the fish are. Still, there are different techniques for fishing from a kayak.
Trolling — Just as with a conventional boat, but you can troll in tighter areas. You drift with the current or paddle, dragging a lure or bait.
Drifting — You can drift in the general direction of a structure. Put away your paddle and use a rudder to steer.
Side Saddle — From a sit-on-top kayak, this is an excellent technique in shallow water where you can see bottom. You can control the kayak without a paddle, using your feet to "walk" across the bottom.
Poling and Standing — Standing lets you see down in the water for excellent sight-casting. Obviously, this takes a very stable craft in calm waters. You can use a pole to propel yourself.
Fly Fishing — Easier in a sit-inside kayak, because you've got a perfect place to store a stripped fly line.
Wade Fishing — You can anchor the kayak, or you can tie yourself to it with a bowline.
Once you've fished from a kayak, you may never go back to the "old" way. And you may also find you spend plenty of time in your kayak without a fishing rod, simply enjoying nature.
Choosing the right paddle is very important — you're going to be using that paddle virtually every moment you're in the kayak. Lucian Gazel's advice is simple: "Buy the most expensive paddle you can afford."
3 Paddle Characteristics
Blade Length and Shape
A wider blade has more surface area and can provide more acceleration, but will also require more effort. Feathered blades have the blades turned at an angle to one another (rather than parallel). This allows a more efficient stroke as the blade that is not in the water is leading into the wind with its narrow edge instead of the flat side, for less wind resistance. However, additional wrist turning is required, so a compromise for novice paddlers is a collapsible paddle that can be adjusted for feathered or unfeathered use.
A spooned paddle has a curled or cupped face that increases the power of a stroke, while a dihedral paddle has a type of tapered nose in the middle of the face that helps direct water around the paddle.
Shaft Length and Shape
Length is important based on your size, the size of the kayak and the paddle effort desired. While most paddle shafts are straight, there are several bent-shaft models that may increase a paddler's comfort as well as provide for a stronger, more efficient stroke.
The materials used to construct the paddle will determine its weight, durability and flexibility. Paddles may be made of fiberglass, plastic, aluminum, graphite, Kevlar, carbon or good-old-fashioned wood. Each type has its own feel as to weight and flex. Where you kayak is also important. If you primarily use rivers, streams and small lakes, you are more likely to run into rocks, trees and other debris, so durability is more important than if you primarily kayak in open water.

Little League, Batter Up!
Choosing the right baseball bat for your little leaguer can be a challenging but also a highly rewarding experience. A tremendous amount of science and engineering goes into the design of today's bats. Many feature exotic combinations of aluminum, zinc, copper, magnesium and titanium. Others use synthetic composites and space-age bonding materials. New technology also helps reduce weight, enlarge the hitting area and improve overall energy transfer.
For most little league players, however, it still comes down to length and weight. Here are some general guidelines to use in selecting the appropriate length of a bat by age or weight and height.
Determining Bat Length by Age
|Bat Length
|5 – 7
|24" – 26"
|8 – 9
|26" – 28"
|28" – 29"
|11 – 12
|30" – 31"
Bats are also available in a number of different weights, measured in ounces. A concept called bat drop can also help young players increase both swing speed and bat control. The bat drop is the weight of the bat in ounces minus its length in inches. For example, a 21-ounce, 31-inch bat has a bat drop of minus 10 (21 –31 = -10).
One way to determine if the weight of a bat is right for your little leaguer is to have them grip the bat with one hand and hold it straight out from their body. They should easily be able to hold it in that position for up to five seconds. If not, try a bat of the same length but with a greater minus bat drop.
Before selecting any bat make sure it fits and feels right in your little leaguer's hands. Also make sure it conforms to all league guidelines for length and weight. Choosing the right bat will help your child develop good batting habits that will stay with them for a lifetime.

The last time you went golf shopping, how much time did you spend researching drivers? Probably a lot more time than when you got your putter, right? True, drivers are a lot more complicated (and expensive) than putters. And while drivers have a huge impact on our golf egos (we all want to be longest off the tee), it is our putter that will have a much bigger impact on our scores.
For a scratch golfer, about half of his or her strokes are on the green. And while the ratio may be lower for high handicappers, the importance of putting can't be overstated. You can recover from a bad drive—not so for a missed putt.
Putting technology has changed dramatically since the days of Bobby Jones' famous wood-shafted "Calamity Jane" (still a very good putter, by the way). The advancements have all sought to improve that ephemeral "feel" that all golfers need on the green. Regardless of the head design—blade, peripheral-weighted or mallet, you can take advantage of high tech enhancements.
Metal Inserts
Inserts are added to the face of a putter. Technically, they increase the "Moment of Inertia" (MOI). Non-technically, that means there's less chance the head of the putter will twist, causing the ball to go places you don't want it—say, anywhere besides the hole. Steel is the traditional insert and it usually gives soft and responsive feedback for a solid, controlled feel. Various other metals are also available—bronze, aluminum, brass, copper, zinc, titanium—all with their own distinctive "feel."
Non-Metal Inserts
Lightweight non-metal inserts allow the weight of the putter to be redistributed elsewhere on the putter face. The MOI increases, as does the "forgiveness" (at least in theory). The downside of non-metal inserts is they produce less sound than metal, reducing the feedback, which for some golfers means less "feel".
Groovy Putters
The key to accurate putting is to achieve forward rolling motion immediately upon striking the ball. Grooves on a putter can help achieve this motion and keep the ball on line. At impact, the grooves grip the surface of the ball and simultaneously lift the ball out of its resting position and give an over-the-top rolling action.
Putting Is Personal
Finding the right putter is definitely a trial-and-error process. When your putter is working well, you are on top of your game. When it's not, well—time to go shopping again.

|East Carolina Games 45-46: Southern Miss
Saturday, April 21 | 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. ET
Greenville, N.C. (ECU Softball Stadium)
|Game 1 Watch Live | Game 2 Watch Live | Game 1 Gametracker | Game 2 Gametracker | Live Chat | Mobile Live Chat
GREENVILLE, N.C. - Riding a three-game winning streak, East Carolina (19-25, 5-10 C-USA) welcomes Southern Miss (12-24, 4-11 C-USA) to Greenville for the Pirates' sixth Conference USA series of the season. The teams play a doubleheader Saturday at 1:00 p.m. and finish the set Sunday with a 12:00 p.m. contest.
Three special events will take place at the ECU Softball Stadium over the weekend as Saturday is Youth Day, Sunday the local Exceptional Community Baseball League will play a game on the field with the East Carolina softball players following the series finale and the entire series has been designated as Alumni Weekend. Between games one and two Saturday, all previous Pirate letterwinners in attendance will be recognized on the field.
Wednesday, in ECU's final regular season nonconference contests, the Pirates used three big innings to sweep Longwood 5-0 and 5-2. In the opener, a two-run pinch-hit single off the bat of junior Cicely Lopez delivered the game-winning tally as East Carolina scored five times in the bottom of the sixth. In the nightcap, three runs in the first, on an RBI triple from sophomore Jordan Lewis and a two-run home run by senior Suzanne Riggs, and two more in the sixth on a double by sophomore Jasmine Robbins provided the offense. Lewis finished the doubleheader five-for-six with two runs scored and one batted in.
The two wins pushed the Pirates' 2012 home record to 11-5. Since the ECU Softball Stadium opened last year, the team is 31-16 (.660 winning percentage) in Greenville.
The Pirates Against The Golden Eagles
East Carolina holds an 18-16 advantage in the all-time series, which began with a single game in 1985. The teams did not meet again until 2002, when ECU joined Conference USA. Streaks by both teams have defined the series as the Pirates lost 13 of the first 15 contests, rebounded to take the next eight, dropped three of the following four and claimed the seven most recent.
A year ago in Hattiesburg, East Carolina won the three games, 6-0, 5-1 and 8-1. In the opener, Toni Paisley threw her sixth career no-hitter and Riggs and Chelsea Kaluhiokalani-Glackin drove in two runs each. Game two had Riggs plate two more and Lewis added a two-run home run. In the finale, Robbins delivered three runs and Riggs tallied two more RBI to back Paisley's four-hit performance.
During the Golden Eagles' last visit to Greenville, in 2010, the Pirates recorded 4-0, 1-0 and 5-0 victories. In game one, Vanessa Moreno led off the second inning with a home run before ECU tacked on three more runs in the bottom of the sixth. The second contest had Riggs drive in the game-winning run in the bottom of the seventh with a pinch-hit single as Faith Sutton allowed just three hits. In the Sunday series finale, the Pirates scored in each of the first three innings as Paisley threw her second shutout in as many days.
The teams also met during the first round of the 2010 Conference USA Tournament, with the Pirates winning 8-0 in five innings. Moreno went three-for-three and scored twice, Kaui Tom drove in three runs and Paisley scattered three hits and struck out eight.
Winning Against The Top Of Conference USA
The Pirates have a 5-10 record in league games, but two victories have come against clubs tied for first or second in the C-USA standings at the time of the games. ECU recorded Sunday wins versus second-place UAB and first-place Houston in addition to a three-game sweep of seventh-place UTEP. Left on East Carolina's league slate are three with fifth-place Marshall, seventh-place Memphis and eighth-place Southern Miss.
Rough Road, Happy Home
With a 7-6 victory at Houston on Sunday, East Carolina earned its first win on the road in Conference USA play this season (1-8). On the other hand, ECU has gone 4-2 inside the ECU Softball Stadium during league action, including the team's lone C-USA sweep of the year, against UTEP.
Hits, Runs, We Want More
Through 15 Conference USA games, East Carolina has compiled the third-highest batting average in league competition at .285. The Pirates trail only Houston (.344) and Tulsa (.313). ECU's 60 walks are two behind UTEP for the C-USA lead while the Pirate hitters' 58 strikeouts are just one behind the Golden Hurricane for the fewest in the league.
Despite the team's high batting average, East Carolina's 66 runs scored rank fifth in the conference, trailing Houston (89), UTEP (77), Tulsa (75) and UCF (70).
A Chance To Become Even Better
East Carolina has the opportunity to increase its offensive production this weekend as the Southern Miss pitching staff enters the series having allowed 152 hits, the second most surrendered during C-USA games.
Active players on the Pirate roster have also compiled a .278 career batting average (25-of-90) against the Golden Eagles. Riggs has hit .545 (six-of-11) versus USM pitchers while Robbins tallied a .500 average (four-of-eight) last year in Hattiesburg.
The First Is Now In The Books, Part I
In the opener against Longwood on Wednesday, freshman pitcher Courtney Smith shut out the Lancers on three hits to earn her first career blanking. The Yuba City, Calif., product struck out three and did not allow a walk in tossing her seventh complete game of the campaign.
The shutout victory is the latest in a string of six strong starts by Smith. In that time, she is 3-2 to go along with a 2.87 earned run average. In her previous six starts, she was 0-4 with a 12.39 ERA.
The First Is Now In The Books, Part II
It took six starts and seven appearances in Conference USA action, but Smith got the monkey off her back Sunday at Houston, recording the first league victory of her career with the Pirates' 7-6 triumph. She threw the initial five frames of the contest, allowing five runs on nine hits and a walk.
Smith has become more comfortable in C-USA action and dramatically improved her performances. Following her first two league starts, she owned a 12.60 earned run average. In the last four, however, she holds a 4.50 ERA.
Rolling Along, Again
Wednesday against Longwood, sophomore Lewis finished five-for-six with two runs scored and one batted in. She set her season high, and matched her personal best, with three hits in the opener. In the nightcap, she hit her first career triple, driving in sophomore Jill Jelnick to tie the game at 1-1 in the first inning.
The performances extended Lewis' hitting streak to six games. From March 18 to April 4, the Fremont, Calif., native had a career-long 10-game run. Prior to the start of the March 18 string, she was hitting .266, but her average now sits at .315.
Quick Starters
ECU has scored 24 runs in the last five games (4.8 per contest). Helping to jumpstart the offense has been success getting the leadoff batter on base. The Pirates' initial hitter of an inning has reached 18 of 31 times (58.1 percent of the time). During those 18 frames, the team scored in nine, good for a success rate of 50.0 percent. The 13 times East Carolina failed to get the leadoff batter on, the squad scored in just one frame (7.7 percent of the time).
Two-Out Production
During the Pirates' three-game winning streak, the club has pushed across 11 of its 17 runs (64.7 percent) and posted a .400 batting average (12-of-30) with two outs. Entering the third game at Houston, the Pirates were hitting .244 (87-of-357) when there were two down.
In C-USA contests, ECU has tallied 20 of its 58 RBI (34.5 percent) and hit .244 (31-of-127) with two outs.

The 11th Hour
The 11th Hour examines the human relationship with earth from its earliest glimmers of innovation, to the challenges humanity faces in the present, to the possibilities of the future.
Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, this captivating documentary explores the perilous state of our planet, and the means by which we can change our course. Contributing to this crucial film are noted politicians, scientists and other ambassadors for the importance of a universal ecological consciousness. Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, physicist Stephen Hawking, Nobel Prize winner Wangari Maathai, and journalist Paul Hawken contribute as the film documents the grave problems facing the planet's life systems. Global warming, deforestation, mass species extinction, and depletion of the oceans' habitats are all addressed. The film's premise is that the future of humanity is in jeopardy.
From movie:
"Global warming is not only the number one environmental challenge we face today, but one of the most important issues facing all of humanity ... We all have to do our part to raise awareness about global warming and the problems we as a people face in promoting a sustainable environmental future for our planet."
The film proposes potential solutions to these problems by calling for restorative action by the reshaping and rethinking of global human activity through technology, social responsibility and conservation.
The 11th Hour is directed by Nadia Connors and Leila Conners Peterson and features narration from Academy Award® Nominee Leonardo DiCaprio (The Departed, Blood Diamond).

On two separate occasions over the past 10 days, Mississippi State's Athletic Ticket Office has lost access to its hosted ticketing and donor management system that is contracted through NeuLion, Inc. As a result, Mississippi State has been unable to sell tickets, process donations, or access ticketing information for all or parts of 5 days in the past two weeks. NeuLion's network experienced a database and storage failure and most recently has been inaccessible since approximately 3:30 Wednesday afternoon. While we understand there was no intrusion or any other external activity that affected data, this has resulted in the temporary suspension of ticket sales.
Mississippi State Athletics has been in constant contact with NeuLion engineers as they work to restore service. We apologize to Bulldog fans who have been inconvenienced by this service interruption and will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates via HailState.com and various social media platforms.
Neulion software is responsible for Ticketing, Bulldog Club Management, Web Site Development, Online Registration, HailStatePLUS, MSU Athletics Mobile Apps, Athletics Email Marketing, and Live Statistics. This hardware failure has affected NeuLion College clients across multiple platforms. Various components of the system have been restored, and Mississippi State will continue to communicate as remaining components are returned to service.
There is a limited quantity of MSU student season season tickets available for students who have not been able to purchase their season ticket due to this service disruption. These tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis at the Bryan Building Athletic Ticket Office beginning at 8:30 a.m. Friday, August 29. In order to sell tickets without having access to the ticketing system, ticket office representatives will be recording students' NetID's and names and providing a paper ticket for Saturday's game against Southern Miss. Next week, those students will have their A/R accounts charged $50 for the season ticket. No other forms of payment will be accepted.
Students who have already purchased a season ticket can still be admitted into the game by presenting their valid MSU ID at the student gates at Davis Wade Stadium Saturday.
We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate the patience all Bulldog fans have shown as we work through this issue with our software provider.
Update (8/29 @ 12:00 a.m.)
The ticketing and donor system can currently be accessed by MSU Athletics staff. Tickets are not available for sale online and ticketing history cannot be accessed by customers online.
Update (8/29 @ 9 a.m.)
Remaining student season tickets are on sale at the Bryan Athletic Building Ticket Office. Athletic Staff currently has access to the ticketing and donor systems but the donor management system is read-only and no account changes can be made at this time. The ticketing system cannot be accessed online by customers. Bulldog Club history can be accessed online but donations cannot be accepted online at this time.
Update (8/29 @ 12:20 p.m.)
Athletic continues to have access to our donor and ticketing system but there is still no user access to ticketing online.

The United States, through agreement with the Bahraini government, took over part of HMS JUFFAIR, renaming it Administrative Support Unit Bahrain. The command title was changed to Administrative Support Unit, Southwest Asia in 1992 to reflect the new mission to support ships and remote sites throughout the COMUSNAVCENT Area of Responsibility. In 1999, ASU SWA became NSA Bahrain.

Senator Annazette Collins was appointed to her first term in the Illinois Senate in March of 2011, as the Senator of the 5th Senatorial District and has served in the House of Representatives for 12 years, previously as State Representative for the 10th District.
Senator Collins is committed to serving all families of the 5th District. Her senatorial priorities include saving and families, and small businesses thousands of dollars through weatherization and green technology, improving the quality of education for the state of Illinois, expanding access to quality health care, supporting strategic plans to bring an end to the food deserts in inner city communities, advocating for capital on behalf of small businesses, and introducing legislation for automatic expungement of juvenile arrest records. She is also co-sponsor of Senate Bill 5723, which is in favor of expunging the criminal records of non-violent ex-offenders. Senator Collins is working hard to reform the juvenile justice system. During her tenure, Senator Collins served as chairman of the juvenile justice reform and public utilities committee. Senator Collins is responsible for making sure that young 13 years olds are not able to receive felony records due to being arrested in the front of a church, school, or housing development. Senator Collins is also working on having legislation passed to make sure that the delinquent records of our youth are expunged before they turn 18 years of age in order to make sure that they have a chance at secondary education and as well so that they are able to enter into the work force and become productive tax paying citizens.
On education, Senator Collins has pledged to support measures that increase funding to schools and she is working hard to insure that students have access to safe and disciplined learning environments. Senator Collins is also one of the reasons why Crane Technical Preparatory high school is going to stay a neighborhood school and will be provided the resources that they need . Crane Technical Preparatory high school will not only stay a neighborhood school but will become apart of the health allied system because it is located very close to the medical district. Senator Collins has also worked to help save Piccolo Grammar school, and will continue to work hard to make sure that our youth receive the resources that they need in order to make sure that they get an equal and quality education. Senator Collins has also went on to serve as chief sponsor on a bill allowing Godparents and extended family to care for children in protected custody.
As an advocate for affordable health care, Senator Collins co-sponsored the Family Care initiative, which provides health care to the working parents of KidCare-eligible children. Senator Collins is also senate sponsor for the Lincoln Amendment, which will allow state voters to enact ethics reforms through popular initiative and referendum.She also served as an administrator for the Chicago School Board, the Department of Children and Family Services, the Cook County Probation department, and as a prison correctional officer.
Senator Collins believes that HMOs should be held accountable to the public. This is why she fought for legislation that would allow patients to sue HMOs for harmful or delayed medical decisions. Senator Collins is one of the reasons why small businesses have a BUSINESS TAX CREDIT-INCREASE due to the Small Business Job Creation Tax Credit Act. She also just recently helped push forward the Illinois Health Coverage Exchange Establishment Act of 2011.
Senator Collins received her bachelors degree in Sociology from Chicago State University. She received her M.S. in Criminal Justice, and has completed further graduate work in counseling from Chicago State University. Senator Collins lives on Chicago's West-side with her husband Keith Langston, and daughters Angelique Nicole and Taylor Kourtnie.

"Sowing Seeds of Academic Change ~ Nurturing New Paradigms"
A growing body of research is beginning to yield important new insights into the physiological mechanisms that connect exposure to abuse and adverse health consequences. This research, and its implications for considering abuse as an important health issue, have yet to be incorporated into the core health care education curricula. In part, this conference is designed to accelerate the adoption of teaching about violence and abuse by highlighting new research and its implications.
The conference audience will be multi-disciplinary and include physicians, nurses, dentists, social workers, psychologists, physical therapists, public health, academic faculty and advocates who work in health care settings. AVA seeks to attract scientific researchers in this growing field and to engage them in discussion with their peers.

My 3 month old just wont nap during the day, im lucky if i can get her to sleep for longer than 10 mins then she wakes up crying, and of course, super cranky. Its beyond getting to me, i swear im going mad. shes just a miserable baby and its making me miserable. the other day i gave up and just laid down with her while she napped and just gave it my all to make sure she slept a lot and she was still miserable all day. she started screeching recently and it just makes me want to run out of the house. shes not laughing because shes too busy screeching, screaming and crying. yes she sleeps at night but is that it? am i just supposed to live with a miserably unhappy baby for who knows how much longer? each hour is horrible and i cant even think about days. we keep post poning dinner with inlaws because shes always crying and over tired but if she wont stay asleep what do i do?
if by some miracle she sleeps it doesnt make a difference she wont stay down. i swear im losing weight because i never get a chance to eat and when i do i give myself stomach aches because i eat too fast. tmi but im constantly constipated and gassy because i never get a chance to relieve myself with out hearing her scream her head off. its gotten to the point where i start crying if she wakes up after i think she might be sleeping and i spend all day waiting for it to end.
but most of the time she doesnt stay asleep, and just gets so cranky. i have to hold her all the time and then sometimes that doesnt work.
shes constantly cranky and overtired and i cant do anything and when i do it doesnt make a difference. the doctor says thats just "her personality" so i guess shes doomed in life cuz shes so horribly unhappy.
i dont know what to do anymore. theres no help either. DH goes into work at midnight, comes home after 1pm, in bed by 4 and hes got his own issues. i spend so much time wishing i could change so much. i feel like giving up sometimes. idk. im losing it. shes just so freaking unhappy. she seemed like she was gonna laugh 3 weeks ago when she giggled and nothing. its because shes so unhapy all the time i know it. shes too busy crying to laugh and i feel like i dont see her smile as much any more.
i know this post is all over the place but goddamn so am i. im seriously losing it.

Colville Statesman Examiner
Medical Lake's Jayln Musser (5) dives back to first hoping to avoid a pick-off play by Colville first baseman Justin Dragovich in last Friday's 7-6 loss in an AA American Legion baseball game at Colville. Medical Lake is home for three games this week, Friday in a rematch with Colville at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday versus Rogers in a 4:30 p.m. doubleheader.
Medical Lake's AA American Legion baseball team kept on the heels of Federal League-leading Freeman this past Monday with their doubleheader sweep of East Valley.
With their 4-3 nail-biter win in nine innings in the opener and an 11-1 five-inning breeze in game two, Medical Lake improved to 5-1 and trails Freeman (5-0) by a half game.
Last Friday night Medical Lake battled both the elements and the bouncing ball, suffering a 7-6 loss at Colville (4-1).
Cory Wagner started the opener Monday going two innings. He was relieved by Jack Walker who went four innings surrendering three runs. Bryd...

Dec. 14, 2004
Freshman guard Jordan Farmar (Van Nuys, CA/Taft HS) of the UCLA Men's Basketball Team was selected as the UCLA/MET-Rx Student-Athlete of the Week for the week of Dec. 6-12.
Farmar scored a career-high 25 points and nine of UCLA's final 11 points in the Bruins' 85-83 comeback win over Pepperdine on Dec. 11. With UCLA trailing 78-74, Farmar hit two free throws to bring UCLA to within two points. With 1:30 left and UCLA trailing again, Farmar hit a three-pointer that again pulled his team to within two. He then sank another pair of free throws to tie the game with nine seconds left, and with four seconds left, he drove the lane and sank a five-foot bank shot to give UCLA the win.
Farmar, also this week's Pac-10 Player of the Week, made eight of 11 field goals (.727), including 2-2 from three-point range, and was perfect from the line, making all seven of his free throw attempts. His game-high 25 points were the most scored by a UCLA freshman since Jason Kapono scored 27 points twice during the 1999-2000 season.
This is Farmar's first UCLA/MET-Rx Student-Athlete of the Week honor of the season and of his career.
Also nominated: Nikki Blue, W. Basketball; Chrissie Zartman, W. Volleyball.

Community Meeting on Boulder Busstop Ride
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
In case you are wondering... this was an April Fools story
The recent story on Conscious Cycling has gotten the attention of Boulder Officials who are working to open discussions about ways to make the Busstop ride which takes place every Tuesday and Thursday starting around 5:30 at the Busstop Gentleman's Club, a friendly, more conscious group. The first of possible many community meetings will take place today at 5:30 at the Busstop Gentleman's Club. Drinks are free to anyone in spandax until 7pm and officials and community leaders will be there to help defuse tensions from this ride and improve relations with the riders. One official who did not want their name printed said that he believes the club will create an atmosphere that opens dialogue and limits and/or prevents any confrontation. If this first meeting goes will it is possible that similiar meeting like this will continue on through the summer every Tuesday and Thursday at the Busstop.

The only way you can come close to possibly get anyone to stick around after 5:05 PM is if some gal comes out in pasties. Otherwise, guys will swing on by around 7:30 PM for pastry. It is a serious ride, and Boulders finest has recently done a not so over zealous job to ensure there is no echelon across the yellow line. Oh, I heard there will be free lap dances in the Bustop parking lot between 4:45 to 5:00 PM on Tuesdays only.

In September 2013, I opened a blog named "Chicks taking pictures of themselves".
I found and reblogged about 2,000 seflies and thought it gave a sense of who these girls were, what was on their minds, what were their interests, references, moods, what made them happy, sad, excited or bored.
In this book I made a selection of the 200 I preferred, because their looks, attitudes, thoughts or words stood out or on the contrary were so typical. I kept the original caption of each photo and the about section of their blog (if any).
So, here are some chicks taking pictures of themselves.
