Carp Bait Flavours and Fruit and Spices To Improve Your Baits and Multiply Your Fishing Catches!
Flavours are such an issue with carp anglers and the fruity ones especially I thought it well worth a look into to show you a few tips that can help you improve your catch results. Whether you use readymade baits or make your own this unique article on bait flavours, impacts and components is highly stimulating and reveals a number of great insights and flavour and bait secrets you can exploit to catch loads more fish!
Fruit flavours naturally form as part of the ripening process as fruits mature. The whole point of most fruits is to be as attractive as possible to the creatures that will consume them and thus spread the seeds that are contained as they are excreted out of the creatures. Fruits are most attractive when fully rips and tend to give us signals not to eat them when not ripened fully. For instance eating lots of unripe apples will not do your digestive system any favours!
Have you ever noticed how tart and strongly acidic apples are when unripe? Acids are a very significant part of the reasons why fruits are very successful in carp baits. For example, malic acid from apples is used to enhance the sensory impacts of very many flavours and is well-known edge in bait terms with those guys more knowledgeable about flavours. Acids and sugars are not all there are to fruit flavours. Fruits are basically dual health, energy and nutritional providers, for the creatures that eat them and fruits also can provide extremely rich environments for seeds to germinate in when broken down.
Fruits contain sugars and these are instant energy to fish. Fish tend to really home in on instant energy sources that enter their blood stream very quickly. For eons, fish have fed upon season fruits dropping into water. But fish adapt to new flavours and flavour components all the time whenever their sensory systems encounter them. In very similar ways humans adapt and cross-adapt senses to be able to more easily identify and exploit and monopolise fresh new sources of foods.
Flavours are very definitely a notable sign post of good food. Ethyl butyrate is one of the cheapest and most commonly used flavour components. It is used in citrus and pineapple type flavours as well as in plum, peach, apricot, mango and guava among many others. However in the case of foods and the human food industry today, just because a food has a good flavour, this does not equate to a good taste and highly significantly it may not actually mean that a food is good for you (or fish!) It may just mean that flavours cover up a host of negative effects and impacts that foods can have.
Many anglers get worried about using synthetic flavours but have virtually no idea how extremely diverse such flavours and components are, no idea what reactions can occur in water and at carp sensory sites of contact and what internal impacts many components and solvents can have on fish beneficially! Did you know that glycerine has a similar food energy value in terms of energy as white table sugar and is a sweetener in its own right?
Glycerine-based flavours are very effective in part because glycerol is completely water-soluble. It is used to extract herb extracts and used in making herbal tinctures and in successfully removing tannins in these and so on. It is used in preference with herbs because compared to ethanol alcohol it has no secondary denaturing or inert rendering effects on herbal extract constituents.
Glycerol has many advantages over alcohol as a bacteriostatic and having bactericidal action so it is ideal for use with natural fruit flavours for instance. Such mixtures can help preserve baits for long periods, especially if further acids or low pH substances are added. Glycerol will sweeten flavours as well as add some food energy value. Glycerol is also better than ethanol alcohol in regard to its much higher boiling point of 290 degrees Celsius so you actually do not lose it compared to alcohol when heating up baits in cooking them; after all you want those flavours still inside your baits when you use them and not lost into the air right!
Many anglers mistakenly believe that flavours cover up bitter tastes that carp find attractive but in fact very many flavours are exceptionally bitter yet are highly successful in high levels! Sweetened flavours tend to enrich the impacts of flavours on fish senses so for instance there will be a higher likelihood of repetitive feeding responses as a result of Talin used in combination with fructose concentrate or sucrose rich substances such as honey. I regard betaine as a sweetener and enhancer in this respect also.
Not many anglers think of being that creative in creating their own fishing bait edges but all it takes is a deeper knowledge of substances and it is very easy! For example, simply mix black strap molasses and or Minamino plus some enzyme-treated liver with 1000:1 strength flavour to create something entirely new and unique!
Flavours and in particular sweet and fruity and sweet spicy flavours are very much used to entice people to eat more food than is healthy for them. If you took the flavours and cocoa out of chocolate and just saw how much sugar and nasty transfats are in chocolates I very much doubt people would regard them as sane to eat! Did you know that coco is lethal to dogs? The very same natural substance hailed as a miraculous (theobromine) can have negative consequences if consumed in too high quantities – just like anything!
One point I could make here is that that some of the more successful flavours may not just be a label or smell as it were, but actually contain certain substances with very significant bioactive internal impacts on fish. But you can make your own highly successful metabolic rate stimulating flavours too with the right knowledge!
I doubt doctors would approve of chocolate containing so much sugar! It certainly has a contributory role in causing diabetes in western people. But guess what, one of the most used flavours is used in chocolate, namely vanilla. This flavour has evolved from the natural to various synthetically-produced and extracted combinations.
There was a time when you could not buy any readymade carp baits at all and so making homemade baits was the only option. At this time I was one of thousands of anglers in the seventies and early eighties and onwards who made their own baits and used all kinds of flavours as the major attractors in cheap carbohydrate and more nutritionally stimulating carp baits.
Fruit esters are some of the most recognisable components in carp bait flavours because they are very volatile in air which means we get to smell them very easily despite our very poor sense of smell and taste compared to carp. When you walk into fishing shops you will often encounter the pungent aromas of carp fishing baits, of fruit notes and solvents in the air of many forms. One point I will say about solvents and esters is that many of these and other highly successful bait substances are very easily mixed with water; they are either totally miscible, extremely hygroscopic or at least have the minimum of water solubility so they mix with water.

Sports History on American Football
American football is actually a sport that used to be performed by way of the ancient Greeks, and used to be referred to as Harpaston.
The game was a little bit other throughout the ones precedent days the place there was no prohibit at the number of players. The main intention of the game was to transport a ball in order that it crossed the goal line. This may well be performed via kicking, throwing, or operating with the ball.
Classical literature issues out some particular description of the game, the place it indicates the avid gamers getting rough and getting desirous about ferocious actions throughout the process a game.
However, evidence issues out that some of the modern variations of football started in England. This is the place the first form of the game was came upon within the twelfth century. As time passed, football was well-liked and lots of English monarchs, like Edward II and Henry VI, started taking offense to the game because it was violent and also diverted the people’s passion from the military recreation of archery. In the mid 19th century, football was break up into 2 leading sports sections. They are well-liked even these days as football and rugby.
American football is a mixture of football and rugby; though that is one thing a diehard football fan won't agree to. What the rest of the sector calls football is known as football in America.
The first football recreation to be played professionally within the United States was in 1895 in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. It was played among a team from Latrobe and a team from Jeannette, Pennsylvania. After that many professional football teams started forming just like the Duquesnes of Pittsburgh, the Olympics of McKeesport, the Bulldogs of Canton, and the team of Massillon from Ohio. They had been all from other states however started competing with every other. Gradually the popularity of the game greater and increasingly more teams joined the fray.
Some of the preferred colleges avid gamers who took up the game professionally even throughout its early years had been Willie Heston, Fritz Pollard, and Jim Thorpe.

Final Four History
Please let me share a little information with you. I found this while research Final Four history out of a love for the sport of basketball If you are as huge a follower as myself then I know you will find this appealing .
Final Four is a expression used often whenever describing the last 4 teams remaining in a tournament Most widely recognized whenever used in reference to the competition of the NCAA. Public random drawings for seat tickets to the Final Four Game were held first around 1974. First printed to a NCAA established distribution in 1975, the phrase "Final Four" was utilized to explain a 32-team bracket with the terms there could possibly end up being absolutely no more than a couple of teams representing any conference. A trademark was registered by 1981 for the phrase "Final Four" an the first use date of 1978 was connected to it.
The following 4 years in Final Four History saw an increase of reputation in Final Four tournaments and a increased requirement for tickets arose. Each year a scramble began with supporters making an attempt to acquire their Final Four tickets while participants strove to obtain entry.1983 saw the addition by the NCAA of the rule that the location for the Final Four Tournaments would certainly have to consist of a 17,000 seat capacity minimum. While the computer industry gained recognition a computerized drawing for Final Four seats was performed. Then by 1989 it had been determined that a 30,000 seat minimum would be necessary for at least 3 of the next 4 venues where the tournament would be held.
At one point in Final Four history a guideline was passed that explained no team could be allowed to play at their home court establishing the need for a court neutral to all teams taking part. Followers of the competition were restricted to a maximum buy of 2 seat tickets each by 1990 and 1996, with increase in popularity of the online world, a web site was created for the Final Four. Another capacity increase in 2003 saw the minimum seating need move from 30,000 up to 40,000 in 2003.
This point in Final Four history finds all tournament games with nearly full capacity and no sign of scaling down. The NCAA Final four tournaments are sure to keep packing full with stoked followers waiting to see their own team move forwards to a championship. Final Four history is rich with wins and losses but has always been one of the quickest growing tournaments throughout its short history.

Why investing in technique coaching is key to success in swimming and triathlon
As a triathlete and a triathlon coach, I attended this year’s TCR 2011 at Sandown Racecourse with the sole objective of launching the Palm Paddle into the triathlon world. Being there to promote a new product it forced me to question the many passers-by (looking interested or not!) about their swim ability.
As a triathlon coach and a participant for over 20 years, I suspected that asking the question "are you interested in improving your swim technique" might provoke some thought process and hopefully get a positive response. In the majority of cases, the question had the desired effect – yes, I definitely need to improve my swimming. However, there were responses at the other extreme – borne out of a lack of interest or not wanting a sales pitch – their technique was fine (and as they were only walking by I can only assume that this was a genuine response).
The vast majority of responses were as I expected in that almost everyone would like to improve their swim technique. This quickly moved on to questions about hand, arm head,... positioning and basically how to swim.
As a coach, I’m used to spending a fair amount of time teaching swim technique and how best to get across the swim stroke to the various learning types – some want visual demonstrations only, others explanation, others a mixture of everything! I spent a lot of my time at the TCR demonstrating the swim stroke – from the catch, vertical forearm, kick, head position, recovery, ...... There was a definite spark of something ‘clicking’ on the faces of many of those I talked to as they grasped a fundamental part of the stroke (the test would obviously be whether they could put this into practice).
The point of this observation though is that in spite of the numerous books, magazines, DVD’s and websites, etc, is that from this random, unscientific - but reasonable large - sample, the vast majority of triathletes do not know, but are keen to learn, the fundamentals of the front crawl swim stroke. This was evident from attendance at a couple of the seminars that I was able to sit in the margins of to gauge interest / reactions. Whilst attendance was good, along with many attendees, I did note many blatant occurrences of the speaker promoting a particular brand, almost irrespective of the need to do so.
Notwithstanding this, if the above, based on talking to people at TCR is representative of the total triathlon community, then there is a big need to help develop the swim technique of both beginner and more competent triathletes. If this is true of swimming then I’d guess that it is similarly applicable to both the bike and run technique and no doubt extends to the marathon running community and the like too.
The best way to address this is to not only read books, watch videos, etc, but to get some coaching. You may have the perfect technique in your head but the reality may not be quite the same. Having a few one-to-one coached sessions as part of your training can make a big difference, or join a club. However, you need to be coached so that you are shown how to swim, rather than just being told what to swim.
Lack of technique will always be a limiter to your ultimate performance – no matter how fit or strong you are.

Hand Axe Or Knife, Which Is More Important?
If I am in a survival situation and can only have one edged tool, which is more important the hand axe or the knife? Today, this is the start of long and sometimes heated discussions around a campfire. In this article we will look at the attributes of each and try to formulate an answer based on knowledge.
The hand axe from its beginning was used as a chopper to remove large pieces of meat from harvested game and get at bone marrow, needed for its nutrients. It was probably used to chop wood and numerous other tasks. The earliest examples of hand axes were just a stone with one or more sides that were sharp. In the truest sense a hand axe has no handle and is the oldest tool of man.
For the last 6,000 years the hand axe and axe have been hafted, handle attached, and the head has been made of metal. Technological advances have improved their power, efficiency, durability, and transportability, but altered their purpose minimally.
Today, hand axe is a general term used for short axes. Hatchet and tomahawk are names of hand axes with specific design characteristics, but are sometimes mistakenly used as the general term.
The knife has been in existence for about 21/2 million years. Many scientists consider it as the oldest tool of mankind instead of the hand axe. A knife can be an edged tool that has a handle or has no handle.
A knife’s primary purpose is for slicing or light cutting. It cuts smaller pieces of meat, hide, sticks, vines, etc. A knife may be as short as about 1 inch and as long as 4-5 feet in the case of some swords. This diversity of size allows the knife to be used in a variety of ways and instigates the argument of importance.
Small to medium, 6 or 7 inch, knives are ideal for gutting, skinning, and slicing bacon or vegetables. Large knives are ideal for cutting larger pieces of meat and wood and used as weapons. Machetes and swords are the heavy cutters of the knife world.
With the exception of the bolo machete, a knife generally has its weight balanced between the blade and the handle. The bolo is weighted forward to increase the force delivered with each stroke for heavier cutting.
A hand axe concentrates most of its weight in the head for optimum power. A longer handle on a hand axe increases the mechanical advantage and the resulting power. A knife and hand axe of equal weight and length will not have equal striking force because of the differing concentration of weight. Therefore, the hand axe will always be superior when chopping large or tough substances.
A knife can be used to cut large pieces of wood by utilizing a baton, a large piece of wood, to strike the back of the knife which increases the force applied. It is labor intensive, however. In a survival situation where food is scarce or non-existent the increased expenditure of energy could result in exhaustion and ultimately death.
Most hand axes are bulkier than a knife and do not have as sharp an edge. The Firestone Belt Axe may be the exception. Due to the extra bulk and duller edge, it is difficult to perform tasks such as opening the body cavity to remove the guts of game. Small game or fish intensifies the difficulty.
It has been shown that the hand axe and knife were developed for very different tasks and remain so today. Therefore, an answer to the question of which is more important will depend on temperature, vegetation, and game present in the survival location. A hand axe might be relatively useless in the desert. However, a knife could not provide enough fuel to stay alive in the forested areas of the mountains and northern climates during much of the year.
An in depth look at the attributes of the hand axe and knife has shown us much about their capabilities, but still does not give us a clear answer alone. Geographical concerns are as important as the attributes of the tools. I can’t answer for you, but I will carry both almost always since I consider each unique and of equal importance.

Most hand axes are bulkier than a knife and do not have as sharp an edge. The Firestone Belt Axe may be the exception. Due to the extra bulk and duller edge, it is difficult to perform tasks such as opening the body cavity to remove the guts of game. Small game or fish intensifies the difficulty.
It has been shown that the hand axe and knife were developed for very different tasks and remain so today. Therefore, an answer to the question of which is more important will depend on temperature, vegetation, and game present in the survival location. A hand axe might be relatively useless in the desert. However, a knife could not provide enough fuel to stay alive in the forested areas of the mountains and northern climates during much of the year.
An in depth look at the attributes of the hand axe and knife has shown us much about their capabilities, but still does not give us a clear answer alone. Geographical concerns are as important as the attributes of the tools. I can’t answer for you, but I will carry both almost always since I consider each unique and of equal importance.

Is It Necessity For Buying Golf Shoes
Skeptics say golf boots or golf shoes are a pointless extra designed not to support you play greater, but to produce you invest further from the pro shop. A pair of everyday athletic shoes and boots, they argue, can complete the task just too.
There's no question golfers will drop a fairly penny on a pair of high-end sneakers. Most main brands offer a minimum of one model fetching $200 or further; a super swanky pair, decked out in calfskin combined with full-grain leather, can price upward of $450.
What is this, Sex plus the City? Not certainly. Decent sneakers can go as low as $60-75, as well as $150 will net you a cool pair, indeed. The price tag begs a legitimate query, in spite of this: Are the benefits touted by golf shoe organizations certainly worth the cash outlay? Or can a golfer receive that by wearing his favorite pair of sneakers?
Let's settle the argument conducted by pitting golf sneakers against standard-issue running, tennis or other athletic boots or shoes, point by point. May possibly the very best fit win:
Comfort
Golf sneakers get come a extended, long way in this department, primarily just by integrating athletic-shoe features into their designs. Still, some sneakers can get a few rounds to break in. Athletic shoes commonly get softer uppers as well as further flexible soles, creating them practically invincible with the comfort category.
Style & variety
Another area in which golf shoes or boots get made main, um, strides. Time was, golf shoes uniformly followed saddle-oxford convention, complete with hideous tassels. Fortunately, those days are but a crappy memory.
Again, many of today's golf boots or shoes mimic athletic-shoe styling, to the point that they're nearly indistinguishable. But golfers can choose by a multitude of designs, by old classic oxfords (sans tassels) to kicks that might produce a skateboarder envious. Colors, designs combined with fabric combinations are equally vast.. Athletic shoes, on the other hand, quite much look the same as athletic shoes.
Traction & stability
Well, this is a no-brainer. Running boots and shoes grip well enough on dry turf, but they're no match for spike-bottomed sneakers as soon as grass is wet. Regardless of conditions, footwear provides a amount of faith that is paramount in creating a superior swing.
Course friendliness
The invention along with popularity of so-called "soft spikes" was a blessing to course superintendents everywhere. Plastic cleats, now required at generally every course, cause much less damage to greens combined with clubhouse floors than their metal forerunners. Nonetheless, athletic shoes' spike-free soles are utterly ouch less to treasured turf.
Expense Prices for good golf together with athletic shoes and boots are similar. But, since athletic shoes or boots can be worn off the course, a golfer can in theory skip footwear expenditures altogether simply pulling double-duty together with his tennis togs.
Intangibles
Once you want to play the same as a real golfer, you ought to look the same as a real golfer. Coupled with sporting a pair of sneakers that belong at the track or court won't aid matters.

Soccer - Europa League, Champions League and the Italian Leagues Are Coming to an End
The 2010-2011 soccer season is coming to an end in Italy, thus it is time to take stock of the situation of the Italian Premier League and First Division and of European cups.
The Italian premier league is drawing to a close, and also the European tournaments are coming to an end. Before the long soccer season ends, leaving alone the supporters that in the long and hot summer days of this 2011 deprived of European and World Championship will have to content themselves with summer matches, the Champions League preliminaries, and the latest news about transfer market, let’s try to take stock of the situation and to see how this soccer season is ending.
A soccer season that has nothing more to tell to Italian supporters as far as European cups are concerned. Out of both Europa and Champions League, the Italian teams cannot but watching the other foreign teams challenging each other to see who will win these prestigious cups. Now in the semifinal phase, the Europa League has already given an answer: the winner of the cup will undoubtedly be an Iberian team. Apart from the Spanish of Villareal, who gained the semifinal after beating the Dutch of Twente, all the other teams that have qualified for the semifinal are Portuguese: form Porto, who eliminated the Spartak Mosca, to Braga, who succeeded in qualify with a 0-0 against Dinamo Kiev, to Benfica, who beat the Dutch of PSV, the Europa League semifinals will speak almost exclusively Portuguese. Waiting for the semifinals, which will be played on the 28th of April and on the 5th of May (Benfica against Sporting Braga on the one hand and Porto against Villareal on the other), and for the final which will take place on the 18th of May, we already know that a Portuguese team will fight to win the cup.
Iberian, but Spanish in this case, are two of Champions League’s semifinalists: the "usual" Real Madrid and Barcelona will challenge each other during one of the two semifinals (the other one will be played by the German team Schalke, which inflicted a sound beating to Inter during the quarter-finals, against Manchester United, another habitué of the competition), scheduled for the 26th – 27th of April and the 3rd -4th of May. To know who will win the most longed-for international cup we will have to wait until the 28th of May, when spotlights will illuminate the Wembley Stadium, which will host the last act of the tournament.
The Italian teams have nothing more to say in the Europena cups, but in Italy they are still busy with the latest matches of the league. As far as the Italian Premier League is concerned, the feeling is that Milan is traveling towards an announced victory, with Naples having 6 scores less and Inter 8 scores less. Moreover, Milan has a more advantageous calendar. And while Milan and Inter are having a foretaste of the Champions League qualification for next year without having to play preliminaries, Juventus is struggling for the Europa League qualification. At the end of the ranking Bari has almost moved down to First Division, while Brescia and Sampdoria are risking a lot. In the First Division Siena and Atalanta are in pole position for the qualification in the Premier League, while Triestina, Frosinone and Portogruaro are in the deep waters of relegation.
In few weeks the curtains will fall on the Premier League, on the First Division and on the European tournaments, making or breaking the protagonists of this season.

What Are Essentially The Most Powerful Ways To Plan Basketball Drills?
Basketball drills are important to each player and should be done regularly, despite the age or experience of each player. This is the same for kids that are just beginning all the way up to the professional basketball player who make a lot a money, which also includes those in between. The fact is, basketball is a hard sport that needs for you to know a lot of different skills. It is also fierce and physically demanding and drills can make your skills better and also improve your body condition. In this article we will talk about some of the things that you should not overlook when planning basketball drills.
When you plan basketball drills, for yourself or your team, you should first of all understand why they are so important. Some players feel that if they play enough games, that drills are redundant.
When these types of players aren't playing the game of basketball, they'll usually engage in pick up games or they'll try to shoot on their own. It's no question that these are more fun than going through planned drills, but that is part of the issue. When you are playing basketball, you are only thinking of scoring and not of the skills it takes to score like you would if you were doing drills. Everyone should keep practicing the basic moves of the game, even if it's not that fun. If this isn't done, you will only make the same mistakes on a constant basis and that's when you'll find yourself remaining stagnant. One skill that drills need to concentrate in is making the basketball players able to go from offense to defense in a quick manner. Basketball is a game that moves quicker than most and that means players need to make sure they have the proper conditioning and reflexes, and they also need to have a level of alertness that prepares them for the next play that's coming up. Your team could have possession of the ball but you never know when that possession will be lost and your team must transition to defense. A good way to engage in drills is to have players divided into separate teams who are then forced to react with a quickness, and then change positions quickly every time they hear you blow the whistle. A drill like this will keep the team mates as flexible as possible and it will improve the way they engage in communication with one another.
Layups are some of the hardest skills to perfect in basketball, so players should practice these during drills. Learning players should know the correct technique of dribbling, stepping , jumping and then making the shot. As they get more experienced, layups should be practiced while other players attempt to guard, as this is what will be happening in a real game. The layup is one of the most simplest of the game, but it is also one of the most hardest ones to do properly. This is a skill that can only be perfected by practicing a lot, so it should most definitely be included in basketball drills. Generally, basketball drills are not considered to be as glamorous as the games where people are cheering you on, but they are needed in order for the team to improve during the games. Whether you are creating drills for yourself or for your team, these things will bring about the most success. Repetition is how we learn everything, and doing the right drills can be the difference between a team that wins or loses most of its games.
There is no doubt that there are lots of elements which will help you to boost your abilities in almost any sport, such as basketball,soccer and volleyball, and probably the single most important of them is your vertical leap skill.
If you would like to strengthen your vertical jump ability, in that case check out the websites down the page for a couple of recommendations.

Probably The Most Effective Approaches To Strategy Basketball Drills
There are not too many things that can be substituted for basketball drills when it comes to working each part of the game with individual players. It is only when a team practices drills over and over again, works together and develops coordination and different skills that it gets what is necessary to win on the court. The team's drill exercises must be planned to account for the issues of the players. The suggestions for basketball drills that are made in this article will help your team to get the most value from its practice sessions.
Basketball requires speed, but it also requires one to do some shifting, moving and pivoting. No matter where the ball is on the court, it has the potential to be in another spot in an instant. Players never know when they may have to change from offense to defense. Drills that practice feetwork, dribbling and shooting are ideal for developing great basketball skills. Players must take the proper stance, and they must also learn how to move quickly in another direction. Another important ability is being able to stop immediately without losing balance. You are able to see where players need the most work by watching them play basketball, but you can only improve at basketball by practicing the proper footwork. You should make sure some of the drills focus on making team members ready to transition quickly because they never know when they'll have to go from offense to defense at a moment's notice. Basketball is a fast moving game, and players need a high level of conditioning, good reflexes, and an alert mind to be ready for the next play. Your team could have the ball one second, and the next you could be playing defense as you chase the ball down the court. You can devise drills where players are divided into teams and are forced to quickly, and unexpectedly change positions when a whistle is blown. This drill will keep the team flexible and it will improve the way they communicate with their fellow team mates.
Rebounds are another common occurrence in basketball, and so drills should always include rebounding. Players must also realize that shots, whether it's them shooting or someone on the other team, might miss, so they need to be ready to snatch the ball up at any time. Players must be mentally and physically ready at all times for this reason. You can conduct rebounding drills by bouncing the ball of the wall or a backboard. Rebounding is one of the aspects that keeps basketball so unique, and the game is a very fast paced game, so players need to work on maintaining their quickness and physical fitness, and the only way to do that is through constant drill practice.
In short, not only will drills help you develop important basketball skills, but it will also bring the entire team together. When you engage in drills on a regular basis, you will increase your conditioning and you will also become a better player overall. So make sure you remember all this when you are planning drills.
