The game was tied at 0-0 at the half before Hopewell scored in the 4th quarter to take a 7-0 lead before the Colonials rallied to tied the game in regulation an win it in overtime. Down at the beach both Manteo and First Flight won there 1st round playoff games, Manteo beat Mattamuskeet 63-0 while First Flight beat Cummings 34-28. Well I have to go back to the dentist later today for a check up and I am sure he is going to set up a date to have my tooth removed and to decide what I want to do with the opening after he pulls it. I know he wants to put an implant in the spot but I haven't decided what to do yet. Have a good day. MICKEY

Here’s what often gets lost in America’s fat phobia: Some fats are actually good for you. More than half the calories in each creamy green fruit comes from one of the world’s healthiest fats, a kind called monounsaturates. These fats differ from saturated fats in that they have one double-bonded carbon atom, but that small difference at the molecular level amounts to a dramatic improvement in your health. Numerous studies have shown that monounsaturated fats both improve you cholesterol profile and decrease the amount of triglycerides (more fats) floating around in your blood. This can lower your risk of stroke and heart disease. Worried about weight gain? Don’t be. There’s no causal link between monounsaturated fats and body fat.

Consistent effort
If you make more progress than you thought you would, don't compensate by slowing down. You're doing great, so raise your expectations even higher and keep going strong.

If you fail to make as much progress as you had planned, don't get discouraged. Remind yourself of why you're making the effort, and re-commit to getting it done.

Consistent, purposeful effort will reliably bring the results you seek. On some days you'll move faster than on other days, yet every day you'll keep going forward.

Never forget that there is great power in small actions that are repeated again and again. Though the path may be long and winding and uneven, by continuing to put one foot in front of the other, you'll reach your destination.

Celebrate the small victories and learn from the small defeats. Then, keep on moving steadily toward the goal you've chosen.

Put the power of consistent effort to work. And each day, you'll bring new value to life.
-- Ralph Marston
