RENEGADES SEASON ENDS IN OT, DAVIDSON WILL TRY TO MOVE ON TODAY




The Richmond Renegades season came to an end last night at the hands of the Fayetteville FirAntz in OT 5-4, with the win the FireAntz win the series 2-0 and will move on to meet the winner of the Jacksonville & Twin City series. I didn't go to last nights game, the Gades season sure was an up & down one winning 12 straight and losing 5 or 6 straight on numerous occasions. I think the biggest problem this year was the high turnover of players for one reason or another, hopefully the league will be better next year and they will add a much needed 8th team. I did go see the VSU baseball team in action yesterday and they lost a DH 2-1 & 6-5 to ST Augustine, both games were very goo ones with VSU coming out on the short end of both. the Virginia baseball team beat Va. Tech again yesterday this time 9-2, the Cavs will go for the sweep this afternoon. The NCAA basketball tournament has two more game today to determine the Final Four, UNC & UCLA are already in and Texas will play Memphis in 1 game today while Davidson meat Kansas in the other game to determine the final to spots, GO DAVIDSON. The Sprint Cup Series is at the Martinsville Speedway this afternoon weather permitting, it is raining here in CH and there are also showers in the Martinsville area also. I have added widget that will tell you old you actually are, just put your DOB and it will display the results. It is cold dreary morning here in CH. MICKEY

Positive Thinking, Positive Mental Attitude
By A.M.Sall

Look at this glass on the table in front of you. Is it half-full or is it half-empty?

Now, do you realize that it is entirely for you to decide what the answer to this question is going to be.

The choice is yours.

So, the very same reality can be seen in totally opposite ways: in a positive way, and in a negative way.

And there is always a positive side to any thing, any situation, any event, any person.

Look at the world in a different way. Try to find out that positive side. At first, you might literally have to dig it out, but after some time, it automatically appears to you. In fact, you eventually only see the good side.

Everything is beautiful, "everybody's beautiful, in their own way", as the song goes.

So we invite you to try our 3-step positive mental attitude formula.

In any situation, however apparently bad:

1. Keep cool and coolly examine the situation. Turn it upside down, inside out, downside up and outside in.

2. Suddenly you realize it could have been worse. Find out how and why it could have been worse.

3. Finally, the good side of it will just appear to you. This can happen gradually or in a flash. It all depends on parts 1 and 2.

Soon you'll see all things and all people in a positive way

What you call "failure" is in fact simply a new opportunity to try again and do better than if you had "succeeded" in the first place.

Now, have you noticed that a rich person has more of a chance of getting a bank loan than a poor person? In other words: you must have money to be given MORE money!

In the same way, if you are a "happy person", you'll get MORE happiness.

As the great American poet Theodore Roethke said: "The right things happen to the happy man"

Don't worry, whatever type of person you are, you can easily turn yourself into a "happy person".

I can almost see your wry, "easier-said-than-done" smile.

But please, just try our 3-step formula and soon, very soon, in fact much sooner than you think, you'll take up a sturdy and radiant Positive Mental Attitude to life and THAT is the only key to wellness, happiness, and a longer life.
