I think evangelicals as well as all republicans are just mad. Theyre just mad at the way things have gone for the last seven years. Down is up, right is wrong, vice versa. And so people i think are reacting to what has taken place in this country for the last seven years viscerally and theyre determined to see it change.

Methes friends and neighbors showed their support here at the Kershaw County courthouse for todays bond hearing. There were very few empty seats behind jimmy methe in the room itself. They were there to ask the judge to grant him a low defendants character. Methe has lived here in camden since 1996. And according to his supporters is an active member of the community. Prosecutors feel however he did not have any legal right to fatally shoot 17 year old Brandon Spencer during that attempted robbery saturday morning. Investigators say they concluded spencer was running from methes home after he came out to confront the two people who were near his truck. According to the Kershaw County sheriffs office, there had been several breakins in methes neighborhood during recent months. Sheriff jim matthews says that gave the defendant no cause to take the law into his own hands. Im not happy about that either so i understand the sentiment behind his actions but he acted beyond what he should have in that situation. I think he was doing exactly what anyone else wouldve done.

I think that i need a little more affirmation from either candidate that i can trust them in the white house. Rand paul before he left the race but now i definitely think governor kasich is the best choice. Their choices for the most part align with the same but for these students, they say the issues and substance behind each candidates platforms and promises will end up being the deciding factor in how they cast their vote. I think her gun control and her prochoice stance is really what drives me toward her. I think we definitely need someone like senator sanders to be president of the united states. Hes definitely qualified. Hes been in washington so long. He knows the ins and outs of washington. Hes worked with people on both sides, republicans and democrats so i think he can get the job i havent found that in either of the candidates.

Todays exercise is like riding a bike with your arms rather than your legs. 00 10 18 seconds in sporting the look of a fancy gym updated pieces of equipment, i was able to meet an upper body ergometer inside cardiac rehabilitation at lexington medical center. Exercise physiologist heather long uses it for cardiovascular and pulmonary patients. Were actually working on their aerobic capacity as well as strengthening. Right now we have you Going Forward but we actually can go backward as well. As you can tell you were actually working different muscles more biceps as youre coming back and youre working a lot of your core muscles as well. And this is a good exercise because it is nonimpact . Right. And it still gets your heart rate up . Exactly, and if you have a lower extremity injury or even spinal cord patients as well can use this type bike. The ergometer also is used for physical therapy and you can find it in gyms. Because a broken foot prevents me from running, this machine helps me still get a workout for strengthening the heart several measurement on the touch screen help guide your effort. This is a met and it stands for metabolic equivalent and what we are looking at here is how hard the patient or client is exerting themselves on the equipment. So as we increase their level and the faster that she is actually peddling, which you can see she is peddling really fast, the higher that number is going to get over their time here. At a three met level is when we start seeing cardiovascular benefits. Going both directions on this ergometer works the biceps, shoulders, triceps, deltoids, abs and back. The staff at the cardiac rehab get their workout guidelines from the American College of sports medicine.
