<description><![CDATA[ There are 8 replies, with the last one on 03/11/2010 at 10:15:53 AM by Martell<br />Quote:<br />Ok! Lets not interpret this how we want to. The rules are very clear and specific. Here is the rule: <br /><br />4. BREAKING<br />To be a legal break, players must break from behind the head string, the head<br />ball must be struck first and at least four object balls must be driven to the rails<br />or a ball must be pocketed. The cue ball may not be shot into a rail before the<br />rack. Failure to strike the 1-ball first does not result in a foul. If the break<br />does not qualify as legal, the balls are reracked and rebroken by the same<br />player. If the break does not qualify as legal and results in a scratch, the balls<br />are reracked and broken by the opposite player. THE RACK MUST BE<br />STRUCK BEFORE A FOUL CAN OCCUR. Breaking safe or soft is not<br />allowed. The League Operator may make judgments and issue penalties to<br />teams and players who are not breaking hard. Breaking just hard enough to<br />comply with this rule is not a guarantee against penalties. Remember, break as<br />hard as you can with control.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ We saw Doctor Thursday and they said that her tumor has shrunk per her Ct Scan we had done last week.  They also said they didnt see anything in her lungs.  She was very happy and so was I.  Sorry I havent written anyone lately havent really had any news to report except she has really been feeling better.  We are seeing a Sarcoma Specialist (Oncology/Surgeon) to see what he thinks of her three ct scans we have done.  Hoping and praying for good news.  Anyway just wanted everyone to know we are all excited over the news.  Keep praying for us.  Wanted everyone to know we are all fine.  Hope everyone is doing well too.   Will let everyone know when I have more news.....Vicky]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Just wanted to invite everyone to a charity tournement we are having for one of our members at StirCrazy (Homewood Division). The flyer is on the home page under upcoming events I believe. We currently have 30 people signed up and would like to fill up the player pool of 64 people. We will have a great time and it will really help out an APA member in need. <br />Thank you,<br />Michael Heis]]></description>
