PRESENTS

THE NUTCRACKER • Continue planting trees, shrubs, roses, and perennials. Planting now will ensure a better survival next Spring and Summer and earlier growth and blooms. • Prune evergreen trees including berry trees and shrubs • Plant Fall and Winter color – Pansies, Dianthus, Snapdragons, Alyssum, Ornamental Kale, and Cabbage, Dusty Miller, etc. • Replace dead grass with St. Augustine sod. Weeds will sprout in dead patches if you do not. New sod will be well established by Spring. • Apply pre-emergent weed control such as corn gluten or Barricade to prevent weeds from sprouting. • Winterize the lawn with an organic, slow release fertilizer • Plant your herbs and winter veggies. Cilantro, Parsley, Dill, Mint, Lavender, Rosemary. Lettuce, Spinach and other greens are just weeks from the salad bowl. Start onion sets, leeks and garlic now for spring harvest. • Plant bulbs between Halloween and Thanksgiving for the holidays: Crocus, anemones, freesia, ranunculus, alliums, lycoris, etc. Plant paperwhites in pots by November 11th (Armistice Day) for blooming in time for Christmas. Regrigerate Tulips until New Years day, then plant every two weeks until Valentines Day for longer bloom time. • Plant wildfower seeds through November – Bluebonnets, Paintbrushes, Larkspur, etc. Also plant Sweet pea seeds in November for better results in Spring. • Last chance to get that mulch down before the weather gets cold. The mulch you applied last Spring is long gone! Protect roots and maintain moisture while keeping weeds to a minimum with a 3 – in layer of the mulch of your choice – pine straw, bark mulch, compost, leaves.

The Compass VNP WOMENS GROUP

We are women who prayer together on a regular basis for children and schools, as an interdenominational, Christ centered prayer ministry – moms, grandmas, aunts, any women desiring to pray for children and schools, whether public, private or homeschool, from preschool to college. Praying together provides hope and strength to moms who carry burdens for their children. Our purpose is to pray for our children, teachers, staff and schools – to pray that our schools will be directed by biblical values and high moral standards. We have a small core group of ladies already meeting together in prayer! If you are interested in joining our newly formed Moms in Prayer group, we meet on Monday mornings at 9:00 a.m. For more information, contact Kyla Bayang at kylabayang@att.net.

The Compass Breast Cancer: Importance of Early Detection By: Concentra Urgent Care Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, and is the second leading cause of cancer deaths. Screening is vital because early stages of the disease are easier to treat. The American Cancer Society recommends women: • Obtain yearly mammography screenings, beginning at age 40 • Obtain yearly clinical breast exams • Check your breasts regularly for lumps • Discuss their breast cancer risk with their physician Breast cancer risk increases as we age. Other factors that increase a woman’s risk for breast cancer include: • Having started menstrual periods at a young age • Having a first child after age 30 • Use of hormone replacement therapy • Having a family history of breast cancer

Men are also at risk for rare cases of breast cancer. All persons familiar with the normal look and feel of their breasts should promptly report any unexpected changes to their physicians. The American Cancer Society recommends both women and men consult their doctor if they notice any of the following:

For more information about breast cancer and early detection, contact your health care provider, your Concentra health specialist, visit the American Cancer Society Web Site at: www.cancer.org, or visit the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month Web site at: http://nbcam.org/

• A new, hard lump or thickening in any part of the breast • Change in breast size or shape • Dimpling or puckering of the skin • Swelling, redness, or warmth that does not go away • Recurrent pain in a particular part of the breast • Pulling in of the nipple • Nipple discharge that starts suddenly in only one breast • An itchy, sore, or scaly area on one nipple

TENNIS TIPS

By USPTA/PTR Master Professional Fernando Velasco

How To Execute The Forehand Lob In previous newsletters, I offered tips on how to hit the forehand groundstroke, the two-handed backhand, the one-handed backhand, the forehand volley, the two handed backhand volley, the serve, the forehand half-volley, the one-handed backhand volley, the overhead “smash”, the forehand service return, the backhand service return, the forehand high volley approach shot, the two handed high volley approach shot and the one-handed high volley approach shot. In this issue, I will offer instructions on how to execute the Forehand Lob. This shot is used when a player is forced to retrieve a ball that is hit deep and the opponent is either charging to the net or staying far back. The player hitting the lob is looking for “air time” to regain balance and court space. This ball should be hit high enough so the players at the net cannot reach and “slam” the ball down, or force the opponent at the base line to retrieve back. In the illustrations, Carmen Manzur, Member of the Grey Rock Tennis Club, shows the proper technique to execute this stroke. Step 1: The Back Swing: When Carmen is forced deep into the

court and realizes that she has to hit a defensive lob, she pivots to the right and gets her racket back early. Notice that the head of the racket is low and her left arm is up in front to keep her balance. Her eyes are focused on the path of the ball and her weight is in her right foot. Step 2: The Point of Contact: Carmen is now ready to hit the ball. Her eyes are now on the point of contact and the face of the racket is tilted at a 45 degree angle to create height and depth on her lob. Her goal is to keep her head still and not start looking up to her opponent or to the other side of the court. Step 3: The Follow Through: The success of a deep lob is the follow through. Carmen’s wrist is still “laid back” and her shoulder is lifting the racket above her head. Her right arm is still in front of her in order to allow maximum balance. Step 4: The Shuffle Back: Once Carmen finishes the stroke, her goal is to either move forward toward the net top to hit an overhead, or to paddle back to the middle of the court to drive the next ball back to the opponent.
