The Richmond Renegades return to home ice tonight when the Huntsville Havoc visit the RC, the Gades need to start winning on a more consistent basis, this will be the only home game this weekend. The CH girls basketball team fell to Atlee yesterday 68-34, the Colonials will play Mills Godwin this morning at the Seigel Center. In the first bowl game of the season last night Utah beat Navy 35-32. Well after today I will be off for the next four days, there is nothing better than I long weekend, as I said before it almost feels like I am working for the government with that many days off in a row. My AIP is still a bit high because I threw a bit with dad yesterday afternoon and my right arm and shoulder are a bit tight this morning along with my foot still being a bit tender. I am glad that I am finished all my shopping because I wouldn't want to have to fight all that mall traffic this weekend unless I am going down there at 6am in the morning. MICKEY

Health Tip: What's Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is a common condition -- caused by overuse -- and characterized by often severe pain in the heel.
The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons offers additional information about the condition, including its risk factors:
* Women and people who are overweight are more likely than others to develop plantar fasciitis.
* Frequent running or walking for exercise may increase your risk of developing the condition.
* People with flat feet or very high arches are at greater risk.
* Standing or walking on hard surfaces for long periods also may increase your risk.
* The injury usually doesn't hurt during exercise, but pain begins to develop afterward.
* Pain may be most severe when waking up in the morning, or after rest.
* Plantar fasciitis requires treatment to prevent it from becoming chronic.
How you look at it
If you look at life through a lens of negativity, life will dutifully arrange itself to meet your expectations. When you approach life from a more positive perspective, your expectations will just as surely be met.
Is it unrealistic to look at the bright side, to remain generally positive, and to expect the best in life? No, because reality itself is neutral, and what you get from it depends upon how you view it and what you make of it.
The raw forces, circumstances and events are, for the most part, out of your control. Yet you can completely control the way you perceive, respond, adapt and yes, even prosper under their influence.
The control you exercise over your own perceptions, thoughts and actions will make all the difference in your life. Reality is what it is, and your own relationship to that reality is precisely whatever you choose for it to be.
There is goodness, there is beauty, there is love and joy and boundless opportunity when you choose to see it. Look realistically at the world, see the very best, and bring it joyfully to life in each moment.
