Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from George Halas. He said, "Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the key to living a victorious Christian life is to discover who you are in Christ. Many Christians have never discovered this. They remind me of the man who had an identity problem and an energy crisis at the same time. He didn't know who he was and he was too tired to find out. God doesn't work from the outside in. He works from the inside out. God doesn't modify our behavior in order to change us. He changes us in order to modify our behavior. You're never going to purify the water by painting the pump. That's legalism, and that's a dead end to discovering who you are in Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;next Friday is our "Catamount Comeback". I am inviting all of our alumni back on this special evening of the 17th. Recognition will be given to our former students of our middle school and high school. Let's make this a special night for all. This is how it will go:&lt;br /&gt;2:15pm School-wide Pep Rally &lt;br /&gt;4:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;6:30pm Women's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;7:30pm-Men's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;strong&gt;Games are subject to the amount of players who show up. Even if you did not play on an official team in school, you can still compete in this. Right now, I am still looking for alumni and faculty who will play in these games.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;February 13th-17th is our annual School Spirit Week. The theme days are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monday&lt;/strong&gt;-Multiplicity Day (Think Twin Day on a larger scale.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tuesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Wacky Tacky Day (Anything from Crazy Hair to outfits that do not match)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Favorite Team Day (I am wearing my Redskins Jersey)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thursday&lt;/strong&gt;-Back to the Future Day (Wear what you want to be when you grow up...also time will be given to go into the next grade for some of the day. For instance a 1st grader will be able to go to second grade and see what it is like! The 8th graders will serve as "Time Machine Drivers" taking them to the classes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Friday&lt;/strong&gt;-Blue and Gold Day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Mrs. Duke is reporting that we have collected &lt;strong&gt;709&lt;/strong&gt; books for Rolling Ridge Elementary School. It is awesome that we set a goal of 650 and went over it. For doing this, the students will be receiving snow cones next Friday!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;registration for Upward flag football is going on now. This is for grades 1st-6th and for both boys and girls. Early registration is $85.00 until March 1, 2012. Please go to www.countychristianschool.org. Then click "sports". Then click "upward". I am hoping we have over 100 players this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;bottled water is still being collected for our sports teams. This is an ongoing need for the athletic department. You can drop it off at the gym or the school front desk for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the middle school basketball games this past Tuesday night were incredible to watch. Congratulations to the girls and boys teams on their victories over Virginia Academy. It had been a whiles since both teams won on the same night. You can check our league standings and tournament schedule at www.nviac.org. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there is no better rivalry in NCAA college basketball than Duke and North Carolina. Last night, I watched the game live up to it's reputation. Duke's Austin Rivers hit a 3 point shot at the buzzer to win it. The video of the shot is posted on my blog at www.thepangleangle.blogspot.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I did watch the Super Bowl and the team I was rooting for did not win. How can a 9 win team win the big game? How can a team that the Redskins beat twice in the regular season win the championship? I do know that randy Luckette, Pierce Brenner and Elizabeth Aldaz are very happy about the outcome of the score. What a Giant mess this is.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3420834515883995716?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3420834515883995716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3420834515883995716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/02/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_09.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-FEBRUARY 8, 2012'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5012901690053820246</id><published>2012-02-08T07:51:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-02-08T07:53:14.160-05:00</updated><title type='text'>CLASSIC CHARACTERS!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jcSOdvihVsE?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5012901690053820246?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5012901690053820246'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5012901690053820246'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/02/classic-characters.html' title='CLASSIC CHARACTERS!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/jcSOdvihVsE/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-572178690182806175</id><published>2012-02-03T11:26:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-02-03T11:28:56.316-05:00</updated><title type='text'>DRAFT CHOICES AND GOD'S TEAM</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kCBJVFWAjJ4?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-572178690182806175?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/572178690182806175'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/572178690182806175'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/02/draft-choices-and-gods-team.html' title='DRAFT CHOICES AND GOD&apos;S TEAM'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/kCBJVFWAjJ4/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7901191061676760375</id><published>2012-02-03T09:29:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-02-03T09:31:04.524-05:00</updated><title type='text'>SPORTS SCHEDULE FOR THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 6, 2012</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;MONDAY FEBRUARY 6&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3:30-5:00PM MIDDLE SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL PRACTICE&lt;br /&gt;3:30-5:00PM MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL STUDY HALL&lt;br /&gt;5:00-6:30PM MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL PRACTICE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TUESDAY FEBRUARY 7&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4:00PM MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL GAME AGAINST VIRGINIA ACADEMY (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;5:00PM MIDDLE SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL GAME AGAINST VIRGINIA ACADEMY (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;

if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think&lt;/strong&gt; my quote of the week comes from Mark Twain.  He said, "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day, like a football, and it will be round and full at evening.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we are being faced with things for which we have no answers--the plague of AIDS, the tinderbox in the Middle East, the outbreaks of famine, the irregular weather disturbances, and much more.   But we don't have to wring our hands and say, "What is the world coming to?" We can look up and say, "Who is the world coming to? It's coming to Jesus! Praise God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to thank Mrs. Taterway and her 7th grade Bible class for organizing "The Big Game."  Our girls and boys teams played thier best games of the year.  The girls defeated Hearts Home School 24-21.  It was the first league win this year for them.  Our boys came back from 15 points down and showed their hustle.  They only lost by two against Frederick Warriors.  They had several three pointers in the last 30 seconds that rimmed out.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;through the door prize drawings and the bake sale, $259.00 was raised to support the middle school mission trip to Nicaragua.  This year, 2 students will be going during Spring Break.  Please pray for the money to come in for Ashleigh Cayton and D.J. Leonhardt.  It cost $1500.00 per student.  They will be ministering and caring for the children at the orphanage.  I believe that they will make a difference on this trip and that this trip will make a difference in them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Mrs. Duke is doing an awesome job with the "Book Blizzard."  Our library has collected 504 new and "like new" books to give to the students of Rolling Ridge Elementary School.  CCS has a goal of 650 books.  If this is reached, a snow cone machine will be on our campus on February 17th for all of our students.  This project is a good way to continue the relationship with Rolling Ridge and have an outreach to their school community.  To clarify, the books will be given to thier students to take home and keep.  The hope is that it will help in their reading skills outside of class.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our 2nd Character First Chapel will be next Wednesday at 9:15am.  It will be a combined with K-8th grade in attendance.  The focus will be on genrosity, orderliness and forgiveness.  Special songs and skits will be a highlight of the program.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;February 13th-17th is our annual School Spirit Week.  The theme days are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monday&lt;/strong&gt;-Multiplicity Day (Think Twin Day on a larger scale.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tuesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Wacky Tacky Day  (Anything from Crazy Hair to outfits that do not match)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Favorite Team Day (I am wearing my Redskins Jersey)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thursday&lt;/strong&gt;-Back to the Future Day (Wear what you want to be when you grow up...also time will be given to go into the next grade for some of the day.  For instance a 1st grader will be able to go to second grade and see what it is like!  The 8th graders will serve as "Time Machine Drivers"  taking them to the classes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Friday&lt;/strong&gt;-Blue and Gold Day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this week will be culminated with our "Catamount Comeback".  I am inviting all of our alumni back on this special evening of the 17th.  Recognition will be given to our former students of our middle school and high school.  This is how it will go:&lt;br /&gt;2:15pm School-wide Pep Rally &lt;br /&gt;4:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;6:30pm Women's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;7:30pm-Men's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;*Games are subject to the amount of players who show up. Even if you did not play on an official team in school, you can still compete in this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to thank the parents who have dropped off bottled water for our athletes, coaches and officials.  The need is on-going so anytime you can pick some up for us, please do so.  This helps provide for the upcoming Catamount games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;since the Super Bowl is Sunday, I will give you my picks.  Two things are not possible this weekend...1) Both teams will lose and 2) The Redskins will not win it.  So based on that, I am going with the Patriots 31-17 over the Gaints. The reason behind my pick is because I do not want the Lombardi Trophy won by a team in the Redskins NFC East division.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 25, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Lou Holtz.  He said, "I won't accept anything less than the best a player's capable of doing, and he has the right to expect the best that I can do for him and the team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Matthew 20:26 says, "But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister."   In Jesus' day, the pagan Gentile princes had many servants--this was a mark of their greatness. To be great in God's eyes, on the other hand, we are to be servants. Do you want to be great? Then minister to others. There are some people who are great because they have servants. That is the pagan way. Jesus said that the measure of a Christian's greatness is not the number of his servants but by how many men he serves.  Now, don't miss this point. Jesus did not say for us not to be great. He said, "Be great, but just be certain that your greatness is measured in God's economy." That is sanctified ambition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the "Book Blizzard" is going on right now.  Up to this point, we have collected 173 books for the students at Rolling Ridge Elementary.  The purpose behind this is to provide books for the kids to take home to their personal libraries.  On this end, Mrs. Duke is doing a wonderful job coordinating this and promoting it.  She even has a snow cone machine coming if our student reach the goal of 650 books.  Your child should be bringing home information on this.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the 7th grade class is putting together a special emphasis for the basketball games on January 30th.  The times are 4:00pm and 5:00pm.  They are calling it "The Big Game"!  There will be free homework passes given to the students who are in attendance, Catamount door prizes, halftime competitions, and a cheer off between our middle school teachers.  I hope you will show your support and join us. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the results are in for our Student Council.  I would like to congratulate  the following...&lt;br /&gt;President-Rebecca Suk&lt;br /&gt;Vice President-Rachel Hollatz&lt;br /&gt;Chaplain-Dani Joy Leonhardt&lt;br /&gt;Treasurer-Karston Steele&lt;br /&gt;Secretary-Katherine Sweeney&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department is looking for families to donate some bottled water for our athletes.  This will be used for our home and away games for our players, coaches and referees.  You may drop it off at my office or the school's front desk.  I thank you in advance for your meeting this need for the Catamounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;February 13th-17th is our annual School Spirit Week.  The theme days are&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monday&lt;/strong&gt;-Multiplicity Day (Think Twin Day on a larger scale.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tuesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Wacky Tacky Day  (Anything from Crazy Hair to outfits that do not match)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday&lt;/strong&gt;-Favorite Team Day (I am wearing my Redskins Jersey)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thursday&lt;/strong&gt;-Back to the Future Day (Wear what you want to be when you grow up...also time will be given to go into the next grade for some of the day.

One of my students remarked as he was riding by it, "it is a little late for that."  Since my team is done playing for severaL months I think it would be great for Dan Snyder to let the Catamount flag football team break it in!  Coach Ben Sizemore would love that I am sure.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-2149977286294305587?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2149977286294305587'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2149977286294305587'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-january_25.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 25, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-2033324736483453423</id><published>2012-01-19T09:29:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-19T18:17:25.428-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 18, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Chris Evert. She said, "If you can react the same way to winning and losing, that's a big accomplishment. That quality is important because it stays with you the rest of your life, and there's going to be a life after tennis that's a lot longer than your tennis life."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would have loved to have seen Jesus walk on the water--planting His footsteps on the sea with the wind in His hair and His garments flowing. I would be a better preacher had I seen Him dying in agony and blood, and to have experienced that Easter morning. Wouldn't it have been wonderful to see Him ascend into the glory! I didn't see Him any of those times, but I'm going to see Him. And you're going to see Him! There's a blessed hope awaiting us as God's children. When He returns, He's not coming as the carpenter, He's coming as the conqueror!&lt;br /&gt;Thank God for this Good News right now and ask Him to bring you someone today with whom you can share this particularly Good News of Christ's return!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we are blessed to have a developing relationship with Rolling Ridge Elementary School in Sterling. Right now we are in the midst of a "book blizzard" for them. We are asking our families to donate a new or like-new book (reading level K-5th grade)that will be given to the Rolling Ridge students so they have some books to read at home. This is another tangible way for us to minister school to school. Please have the books in to our library by February 15th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department is in need of cases of bottled water. This will be used for our athletes for home and away games. If you would like to help with this, please drop the water off by my office. One of the reasons I love our school is that when a need like this is presented, our parents make it happen and fill it. I remember a few years ago, when I needed a refrigerator and I made our parents aware. Within 2 days, one was sitting in the gym office being used. I appreciate your willingness to work with me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am looking to hire an experienced field linesman. Mr. Charles Tull has done this for me the past several years and with his recent move to WARM Florida, it has left a huge gap. I need this position filled soon as we have upcoming spring flag football and soccer. Please get in touch with me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this past weekend I was watching Tim Tebow and his Broncos play. While I was sad the Mrs. Wurtzel's team got eliminated, I was glad when I saw the Focus on the Family commercial. What a great time to show the message of God's love. To see the John 3:16 advertisement, please go to www.thepangleangle.blogspot.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Catamount Comeback is February 17. Please mark your calendars. Here is the schedule for this fun-filled night. Please help spread the word. &lt;br /&gt;2:15pm School-wide Pep Rally &lt;br /&gt;4:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Game Against Leesburg Christian School (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;6:30pm Women's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;7:30pm-Men's Alumni and Faculty Game*&lt;br /&gt;*Games are subject to the amount of players who show up. Even if you did not play on an official team in school, you can still compete in this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this week is the student council elections. The positions that are up for voting are president, vice-president, treasurer, secretary, and chaplain. The students have made posters and are delivering speeches. This is a great way to have the students involved in our school and being a national election year, a way for our history department to instruct and inspire our students about the United States government. A special thank you to Mrs. Barker and Mrs. Taterway on organizing this. I look forward to working with the representatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for post-season week 2....&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-San Francisco 49'ers against the New Orleans Saints&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-New York Giants&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Tom Brady&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Tom Coughlin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am missing watching the Redskins on Sundays. Hard to believe that the team we beat twice in our division is one game away from the Super Bowl. The talk around D.C. is all about the quarterback. A lot of headlines have been given to Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III and even Peyton Manning. I am not sure who will take the snaps for us next year but one guy that I am extremely impressed by is Kirk Cousins out of Michigan State. We may be able to get him in the later rounds.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-2033324736483453423?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2033324736483453423'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2033324736483453423'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-january_19.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 18, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5132344504386504481</id><published>2012-01-17T10:32:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-17T10:33:34.368-05:00</updated><title type='text'>WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THE BRONCOS GAME</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5beoRa_HR8o?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5132344504386504481?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5132344504386504481'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5132344504386504481'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/what-i-liked-about-broncos-game.html' title='WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THE BRONCOS GAME'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/5beoRa_HR8o/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5174044689053453053</id><published>2012-01-06T09:48:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-06T09:49:23.919-05:00</updated><title type='text'>LISTEN TO THIS STUDENT ATHLETE-PROPER PERSPECTIVE!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/tp15N9BbYgY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5174044689053453053?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5174044689053453053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5174044689053453053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/listen-to-this-student-athlete-proper.html' title='LISTEN TO THIS STUDENT ATHLETE-PROPER PERSPECTIVE!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/tp15N9BbYgY/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7943135115506906806</id><published>2012-01-04T11:19:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-04T12:11:41.891-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 4, 2012</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Pat Riley. He said, “Courage is not the absence of fear, but simply moving on with dignity despite that fear.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;when I was growing up, my dad made sure that I always had a basketball goal to shoot on. He taught me early on to take aim what you are shooting for. Have you ever written some God-given goals to keep you on target and task? Most people I know don't plan to fail. They simply fail to plan. How can you tell whether or not your goal is a God-given goal? First, have you prayed over it and asked for God's blessing? Second, does it create in you enough spiritual enthusiasm and excitement to see it fulfilled? Third, does it demand the very best in you? Fourth, does it touch every area of your life? There is no area of your life that is out of bounds from God. My prayer for our students is that they will Know God and make Him known. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;next week is an important time in the life of our students. It will be our 4th annual Spiritual Emphasis Week. Illusionist Wes Holly will return and lead the elementary time (9:15am) and AXIS ministry will lead our middle school time (10:05). The special chapels will be on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I hope you will join me in prayer for God to work on our campus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;AXIS ministry consists of college age young people who travel and creatively educate students by questioning assumptions, interpreting media, and equipping schools to move from apathy to compassionate action. This will go hand in hand with our Bible curriculum and our Biblical Worldview. Parents are invited to attend each session. Summit Ministries John Stonestreet recommends this group highly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think in hosting this ministry there is a huge need I have. I have sent out emails and posts and yet still have not found a host home for them. I need a family to take them in for four nights while they are here. They will stay together. They have their own transportation. They will be arriving Sunday night. This is their preference and it will help the school with expenses. If you are interested and want more details please contact me as soon as possible through the school office (703) 729-5968 or email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org. I thank you ahead of time.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have two away basketball games this week. We play tomorrow against Manassas Christian School. Girls and Boys both play with the games starting at 4:00pm. The Bus will leave at 2:30pm. Then on Friday, we play Leesburg Christian School. Both teams will play with the games starting at 4:00pm. The bus will leave at 2:45pm. This is their homecoming and it is a nearby school on Evergreen Mill Road. I hope you will come and cheer for the, It will be great to see Blue and Gold in the stands. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward basketball starts this Thursday evening. We have over 315 registered and 30 teams. God is blessing this program. We are at capacity with a waiting list. I am excited that through the game of basketball, we can teach them the Bible! We are in need of prayer partners for this league. If you have a passion of prayer and would like to help us, please email me. You will get weekly updated prayer request for the coming practices and games. You may not shoot a 3 pointer but you can pray to the Triune God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the New Year is here and I am hearing a lot about different exercise programs. As I reviewed them, I was able to find some I need to avoid in 2012. Here is the list...&lt;br /&gt;*Wading through paperwork&lt;br /&gt;*Running around in circles &lt;br /&gt;*Pushing my luck&lt;br /&gt;*Spinning my wheels &lt;br /&gt;*Beating my head against the wall &lt;br /&gt;*Dragging my heels&lt;br /&gt;*Jumping to conclusions &lt;br /&gt;*Grasping at straws&lt;br /&gt;*Fishing for compliments &lt;br /&gt;*Throwing my weight around&lt;br /&gt;*Passing the buck&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 17....&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Tennessee Titans versus Houston Texans&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Miami Dolphins&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Victor Cruz&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Bill Belichick&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;all of you know by now that the Redskins season is over. Therefore, I have no prediction to close out this blog. However, I do have a good story. This past weekend, as I was watching the game against the Eagles, I received a text message from Devin Greenhow. He is a seventh grader here at CCS and a big fan of the green and white. He in a few words made sure I knew his team was winning. I look forward to the days of RG3 when I can text him back in a game! On the serious side, one of the joys of teaching the relationship with the ones you lead on a daily basis.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7943135115506906806?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7943135115506906806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7943135115506906806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-january.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 4, 2012'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1263007938921976120</id><published>2012-01-03T13:02:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-03T13:02:41.388-05:00</updated><title type='text'>RIGHT RESOLUTIONS???</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zV3MUpN8vA0?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1263007938921976120?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1263007938921976120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1263007938921976120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2012/01/right-resolutions.html' title='RIGHT RESOLUTIONS???'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/zV3MUpN8vA0/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-9208815412381269828</id><published>2011-12-24T10:53:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-24T10:54:24.847-05:00</updated><title type='text'>MAY WE NOT MISS THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HuNOnGm3rsU?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-9208815412381269828?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9208815412381269828'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9208815412381269828'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/12/may-we-not-miss-christ-of-christmas.html' title='MAY WE NOT MISS THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/HuNOnGm3rsU/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3683006521292943419</id><published>2011-12-14T14:34:00.008-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-14T20:11:00.387-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 14, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Dan Frisby. He said, "Basketball is like photography, if you don't focus, all you have is the negative."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this morning in the elementary chapel, I was reminded of the line from Silent Night that says "Christ the Savior is born." The question came to my mind, "But what if Chris had never been born? The answer is at least three-fold. If Christ had never been born then our Bible is unbelievable, our Gospel is unpreachable and our World is unredeemable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a close friend of mine, Charles Tull, and his family are moving to Florida today. I stopped by for a moment ant told them by today. He has been a faithful friend and helper to me and the Catamounts! A few years ago, I even pulled him out of retirement to coach girls basketball. He will be missed but excited to hear what God does next in his life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I have the privilege to serve on staff with Dustin Holliday. He spoke at our church leadership round table this week with some challenging and convicting words. I admire his and his wife's boldness in the facing life storms. I urge you to read his blog at http://www.cfcoutreach.blogspot.com. It will be a blessing to you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;one of my athletes told me of how she has been noticing that the other teams that play us have been having more fans at the games than us. After she said that, I had to admit that it was true. This coming Monday we have a home game for the girls at 4:30pm. Let's surprise her and have the bleachers packed. Even if you do not have a child playing, come out and support the Catamounts! Let's make our gym an encouraging and enthusiastic place to play!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;due to the Christmas program for the school tomorrow night, there is a different basketball practice schedule. Please take note of the following...&lt;br /&gt;3:30-4:30PM ELEMENTARY CHEER LEADING PRACTICE (ROOM 129)&lt;br /&gt;3:30-4:30PM MIDDLE SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL PRACTICE&lt;br /&gt;3:30-4:30PM MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL STUDY HALL&lt;br /&gt;4:30--5:30PM MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL PRACTICE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have over 300 registered for the upcoming Upward basketball season. I praise the Lord for this and hope that we see many of them come to know Jesus as their personal Savior and Lord! The gym will be packed with young people learning about Him through the game of basketball. May we continue to do "whatever it takes" to reach and teach the next generation for His glory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to spread the word that Kaitlyn Maher will be at the church I grew up in this Sunday.  She will be singing several songs at the Shenandoah Valley Baptist Church. The service starts at 10:00AM so please be praying.  I am Looking forward to her singing about the goodness and grace of God!  She has been busy lately as she just returned from filming another movie for Disney.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I think these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 14...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Arizona Cardinals versus the San Francisco 49'ers&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Green Bay Packers&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Tim Tebow&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Tom Coughlin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins are playing better as of late. I look for us to upset the New York Giants and NFC East race. The score will be 28-17. By the way RG3 would look good in the burgundy and gold next year even with his special Superman socks!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3683006521292943419?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3683006521292943419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3683006521292943419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/12/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 14, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5379321760475819239</id><published>2011-12-08T12:58:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-08T12:59:18.786-05:00</updated><title type='text'>10TH MAN FORMATION...NO ONE CAN REPLACE SEAN TAYLOR!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/1YW2jGnU18Q?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5379321760475819239?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5379321760475819239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5379321760475819239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/12/10th-man-formationno-one-can-replace.html' title='10TH MAN FORMATION...NO ONE CAN REPLACE SEAN TAYLOR!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/1YW2jGnU18Q/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3389026578113230382</id><published>2011-12-07T11:32:00.006-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-07T12:15:25.220-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 7, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Joe Gibbs. He said, "The will to win is meaningless without the will to prepare."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;today marks the 70th anniversary of a date that has indeed lived in infamy: December 7, 1941 — the date on which the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and thrust America into World War II. The next afternoon, before a joint session of Congress, President Franklin D. Roosevelt said, to thunderous applause, “No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people, in their righteous might, will win through to absolute victory.” He then, in accordance with our Constitution, asked Congress for a declaration of war. That same afternoon, he received and signed that declaration. What a difference a day makes in the history of a people and a nation. We may not know what today holds but we do know the God that holds today!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our Catamount Basketball schedule is posted at www.ccsathletics.org. Our girls and boys teams are improving each game and providing exciting games. I want to ask our families to make as many games as possible this season. There is no cost for you to come and we need all the fans we can get. Next week, we have Hearts Home School (Monday) and Fairfax Home School (Tuesday) coming to us. Both of them will bring a good number of fans and I do not want us to be outnumbered in Catamount Country! So be early. Be enthusiastic. Be encouraging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our elementary cheer squad did an awesome job last night. This year, they will be cheering for the middle school girls' games. I look forward to hearing them in action. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this week, I was given the official word from the NVIAC that we won the middle school girls cross country championship. This is the first time in school history that we have done this. I am so proud to our runners and look forward to the development of this sport for our school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;as i write this the Angel Shop is going on. Seeing our middle school helping and serving this worthwhile cause is touching to me. If you have been around our school this year and seen this group of young people, one thing that you have seen is how glad they are to help out with projects. Already this year, we have collected, sorted, packaged and delivered 104 food bags for rolling Ridge Elementary and 100 Christmas gift stockings for Christian Fellowship Church. We are motivated to make a definite difference in our community. There is more to come and based upon the character of our students and God's provision, they will make it happen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you want some good ideas for Christmas, I have some available $10.00gift cards for you to use at our school spirit store. They are available in my office and if you let me know, I will do what I can to get them to you. I love seeing the blue and gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our 3rd annual Spiritual Emphasis week will be January 9th-11th. Our elementary will have special speaker and entertainer Wes Holly again. Our middle school will have Axis Ministry out of Colorado. This will be a group of 3-5 college age kids that will present message on a Christian Worldview. They have asked us to provide housing for them on those days and they would all like to stay together. If you have room and would like to take on this responsibility, please contact me as soon as possible. Please pray for this life-changing week for our students.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 13...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Green bay Packers versus the New York Giants&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Denver Broncos&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Ray Rice&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Mike McCarthy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins are 4-8. To make my preseason prediction of 8-8, they have to win their last four games. They will have to do this without suspended Trent Williams and Fred Davis. Being the blind optimist I am. I want them to win over the Patriots 28-24!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3389026578113230382?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3389026578113230382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3389026578113230382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/12/finally-brethren-whatsoever-things-are.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 7, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6930576450022861041</id><published>2011-12-06T10:45:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-06T10:46:04.822-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I WILL SAY THE WORD "CHRISTMAS" WITHOUT APOLOGY</title><content type='html'>Christmas is spelled L-O-V-E.  What is the Christmas message?  John 3:16. God gave us the gift of love on Christmas Day. It is truly said, “What the world needs now is love.” I need it. You need it. Your spouse needs it. Your child needs it. An elderly man or woman sitting alone in a nursing home today needs it. A child abandoned and alone in a children’s home needs it, too. God sent His one and only Son as the Savior. He knew we couldn’t save ourselves. So He sent His Son to be born in a manger, to die on a cross, to rise again into glory, and to come again to redeem His church.    Through the Backpack Buddies program for Rolling Ridge Elementary this fall and now the Christmas Stockings for local children, we are trying to show and share this love outside our school walls.   Thank you for partnering with us for this purpose!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6930576450022861041?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6930576450022861041'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6930576450022861041'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/12/i-will-say-word-christmas-without.html' title='I WILL SAY THE WORD &quot;CHRISTMAS&quot; WITHOUT APOLOGY'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7462788443830993135</id><published>2011-11-30T20:24:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-30T21:02:27.972-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 30, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Bobby Bowden. He said, "Don't go to the grave with life unused." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;now that volleyball season is over, it is time for me to collect the uniforms. Please wash them, place in a zip lock baggy and bring to my office. Please do this by Friday so we can close out our fall season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you have taken any sport pictures this year and would like to share them with the athletic department, please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org. The pictures will help with our bulletin boards, our website and our yearbook. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our basketball season started this past Tuesday against Trinity Meadowview. Our boys lost but played a good fourth quarter to finish strong. Devin Greenhow made an incredible 5 3point shots. The girls shut TMV down with an impressive win. Their defense did not allow a point in the second half. D.J. Leonhardt led all scorers with 14 points. The boys will be back in action Thursday night at 5:00 against Frederick Home School. The game will be played in the Catamount Gym. For schedule and updates, please go to www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was a rather long Thanksgiving break for my family. My dad went into the hospital on Thanksgiving and was not released until this past Monday. Thankfully, he has had two good back to back days. I am so deeply touched by your questions and comments of concern. It is truly a blessing when parents, students and faculty let me know they are praying for him. Please keep it up and do not stop. God answers prayer!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to remind everyone that the Christmas stockings are due back this Friday, December 2. Please contact your child's homeroom teacher as to what toys and supplies are needed. We had a high goal of 100 completed stockings. To accomplish this, we need all to participate. What a great time of year to concentrate on giving rather than receiving. This project is in cooperation with CFC's emphasis of "Gifts That Give Hope."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;tomorrow morning, I will be meeting with the 8th grade Bible class to see who is thinking about going on the annual middle school mission trip. We were challenged in chapel this week by Dr. Daphne Thomas about using our gifts and talents for the Lord. On this trip, there will be plenty of opportunities to do this. Team members will spend spring break at the Verbo Orphanage in Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua. CFC and its members provide on-going support for this orphanage. Team members will spend time with the orphans engaging in various activities including Bible studies, crafts, games, sports, and field trips to the river. Team members will also support the Verbo Church with various outreach ministries and projects at the orphanage. This trip is great for families (children 7 years and up). Information packets are available for download here http://cfellowshipc.org/pages/page.asp?page_id=19720&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to encourage you to go to the Leesburg/Ashburn Today website and vote for our school, our teachers and our coaches in the 2011 Best of Loudoun Ballot. If interested go to www.leesburgtoday.com. Scroll all the way to the bottom and click the appropriate icon. One vote is allowed per computer. This will help our school with community recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.&lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 12...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-New England Patriots Versus Philadelphia Eagles&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Oakland Raiders&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Drew Brees&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-John Fox&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins made me happy by getting a win over the Seahawks. I am wanting them to continue their victory streak over the Jets. They will beat Rex Ryan's team 17-13.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7462788443830993135?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7462788443830993135'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7462788443830993135'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_30.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 30, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1222717482179424138</id><published>2011-11-30T17:47:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-30T17:47:52.630-05:00</updated><title type='text'>HELU-SIVE!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Bn9d63NibZc?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1222717482179424138?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1222717482179424138'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1222717482179424138'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/helu-sive.html' title='HELU-SIVE!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/Bn9d63NibZc/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-8330845968789003702</id><published>2011-11-16T12:47:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-16T14:32:08.388-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 16, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Earl Warren. He said, "I always turn to the sports section first. The sports page records people's accomplishments; the front page has nothing but man's failures."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a special thank you goes out to Head Coach Sandra Cravens and her middle school girls volleyball team. They capped off their fall season with the exciting "Dig for Nicaragua." Through the tickets at the door, the silent auction and the bake sale, the team raised over $700.00. More money is still coming in! This money will go to supporting the mission trip. The girls also beat the middle school boys 2 games to 0 and the faculty 2 games to 0. Go Catamounts. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I enjoyed the Character First Chapel today. I know it is a change from the traditional honor roll chapels, but I believe God is going to use the new format to increase our Christ-like conduct and conversation. For a good background on the Character First educational program please go to www.thepangleangle.blogspot. There is an awesome video a fence and an ambulance that teaches a powerful lesson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;outside of room 700, there is a collage of pictures that show our students of the month. They are listed by the character trait and a little story on why they were nominated from their teacher. It is worth a minute of your time to look at it. We will be updating the board every month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to call all my prayer warriors together for the purpose of praying for the new Upward Basketball season. We are in the midst of registrations and evaluations right now. At this time, we have over 250 enrolled. Please intercede over them as we minister to them through sports! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our winter sports season is underway with middle school girls and boys basketball and elementary cheer leading. The cheer leaders will have their first practice Thursday from 3:30-4:30pm. Coach Cravens will pick them up at carpool and practice in room 129. The parents will be able to pick the girls up in the gym after the practice. It will be good for us to have a squad of spirit cheering for the Catamounts. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;as a I write this the Advanced P.E. club is meeting. We have been blessed by 1757 Golf, Reggie Evans (former Redskin), and Charlie Leonhardt (his claim to fame is he is D.J's brother) as instructors this quarter. They have concentrated on golf, football and soccer. This is another opportunity from the athletic department to coach our athletes with proper training and techniques. Mrs. Long oversees this for us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am looking forward to our school-wide thanksgiving feast. It will be a good way to continue building lasting relationship with our students and parents. We have had good group interaction this November with the Veterans Day Chapel, the "Dig For Nicaragua" Volleyball game, Fudruckers Spirit Night and the Character First Chapel. May our school community be one of peace, patience, productivity and partnership.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 10...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-New Orleans Saints Versus Atlanta Falcons&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Dallas Cowboys&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Devin Hester&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Pete Carroll&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins will end their five game losing streak against the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday. I wish that my man Brandon banks could find time in the offense soon! The score will be 27-24.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-8330845968789003702?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8330845968789003702'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8330845968789003702'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_16.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 16, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6955120551130225025</id><published>2011-11-16T12:45:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-18T09:40:16.490-05:00</updated><title type='text'>RIGGO AND THE REDSKINS...</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Cc-ZZshy6f4?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6955120551130225025?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6955120551130225025'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6955120551130225025'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/riggo-and-redskins.html' title='RIGGO AND THE REDSKINS...'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/Cc-ZZshy6f4/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1987449853853896126</id><published>2011-11-15T10:03:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-15T10:04:13.706-05:00</updated><title type='text'>CHARACTER FIRST!</title><content type='html'>&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.characterfirst.com/scripts/swfobject/swfobject.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="player"&gt;&lt;p id="getflash" style="display: none"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"&gt;Get the Flash Player&lt;/a&gt; to see this video.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://video.characterfirst.com/player/player.js?filename=Fence&amp;width=520&amp;height=420"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1987449853853896126?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1987449853853896126'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1987449853853896126'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/character-first.html' title='CHARACTER FIRST!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-2085455808267465012</id><published>2011-11-10T14:26:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-10T14:26:41.530-05:00</updated><title type='text'>11-11-11</title><content type='html'>BLUE &amp; GOLD dress down day.

Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Vince Lombardi. He said, "The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our first "blue and gold" day of the year will be held this Friday. Please wear our colors and show your school pride. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our annual "Dig for Nicaragua" volleyball event is this Friday night, November 11. We are in need of donated items for the silent auction and homemade baked goods for the bake sale. Volunteers are needed to assist and the hours can go to fulfill your service time. The middle school boys will play against the middle school girls at 5:00pm. The faculty will play the middle school girls at 6:00pm. Free homework passes will be given out for all students that come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the boys and the faculty will wear their black mission shirts for the games. If you do not have one, please see me. They also will be on sale at the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a huge applause is given to Mrs. King and her students for putting on the Veterans Day Chapel. The lines and the songs spoke to my heart. It was a tremendous reminder that a nation that has freedom has the responsibility of protecting and preserving it. What courage our military demonstrates each and every day. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I was blessed last week when a child approached me and said, "I can't believe you pray for me by name." He was referring to the post cards we send to our students each week after we pray for them in our staff meetings. I believe that God honors prayer and prayer honors God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we wil have a brief information meeting regarding cheer leading. Hopefully we will have enough girls this year to have an elementary squad and a middle school squad. This will take place in room 705 right outside my office. Cheer leading is open for 1st-8th grade. The coaches will be present at the meeting to answer any questions you may have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Soccer concluded it's season Saturday with the Award Celebration. Steve Brogan presented the gospel in a clear and simple way. We had 8 respond to Christ and accept Him as Lord and Savior. It is wonderful how God uses sports to get their attention and how He uses His sacrifice to get their atonement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 9...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Baltimore Ravens versus the Pittsburgh Steelers&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Miami Dolphins&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Tim Tebow&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Lovie Smith&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins are going to have to go 5-3 in the second half of the season to make my winning prediction come true. I thought they would finish 8-8. However, the games get tougher as the year goes along. I am picking the Redskins to win 24-21 Sunday. We need to beat the Dolphins this week so we can build momentum against the Cowboys.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1300626804423524010?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1300626804423524010'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1300626804423524010'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_09.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 9, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6672696162102587192</id><published>2011-11-03T21:13:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-04T09:40:35.632-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 3, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Dan Reeves. He said, "Difficulties in life are intended to make us better, not bitter."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school volleyball team showed their spirit and sportsmanship in every game they played this year. Their season has one more special event left. It is the "Dig for Nicaragua" night. The girls will play the middle school boys (5pm) and the faculty from the school (6pm). There will also be concessions and a silent auction. All the proceeds will benefit sending our students on the mission trip during spring break. This will happen next Friday night, November 11th. If you would like to volunteer to help or have an donated item for the auction, please get in touch with me as soon as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;every student attending this night will receive a free homework pass! Also on that day, we will have a school-wide Blue and Gold Day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;to help decorate for this, we will have each class make a banner for the gym. They will be mission minded messages. The team then will hang them in the gym. We will be delivering the papers to the classes on Wednesday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our fall service project is the Snack Packs for Rolling Ridge Elementary School. Our goal was to be able to fill 100 bags. At this time, I am 20 short. Each homeroom class has a list of the suggested items. If you have not given to this worthwhile cause, I am asking you to consider doing so. I would like this to be done by next Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our Cross Country team competed in the NVIAC meet this past Friday. We had six runners and all of them finished the 3 mile race in under 30 minutes. A special congratulations to D.J. Leonhardt for finishing third in the middle school girls division. Our girls also finished wit the the best team time for the race!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the gym was full of activity today. We had the beginning practices of middle school girls and boys basketball and our outreach to the community, Upward basketball evaluations. Looking forward to see what God does this year with all of this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;one of the 8th grade school tradition each year is to paint the "Spirit" Rock. God gave them beautiful weather today to do this. A special thanks to Mrs. Mumford and Mrs. Skinner for making this happen. The rock is located near the playground. Please take a look at it and see the creativity of our students. Also notice that it is painted Blue and Gold!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week 8...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-San Diego Chargers versus the Kansas City Chiefs&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-St. Louis Rams&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Ben Rothlisberger&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Andy Reid&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins need a big win at home this week. If you have read my "Angle" before you know that I never, never pick against my team. I have them winning 19 to 14 over the 49'ers.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6672696162102587192?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6672696162102587192'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6672696162102587192'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 3, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6720533698363403156</id><published>2011-10-21T10:41:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-21T10:42:04.790-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE BECKSKINS!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AIU-bUtEaLY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6720533698363403156?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6720533698363403156'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6720533698363403156'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/10/becksikins.html' title='THE BECKSKINS!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/AIU-bUtEaLY/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1607709736166024960</id><published>2011-10-20T12:58:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-20T14:00:29.082-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 19, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Jack Nicklaus. He said, "There is no room in your mind for negative thoughts. The busier you keep yourself with the particulars of shot assessment and execution, the less chance your mind has to dwell on the emotional. This is sheer intensity."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that this week our faculty will go through the "Do the Right Thing" training. This will explore the ethical and moral breakdown that is assaulting culture from all sides. It will encourage us to examine ourselves and how character issues relate to our lives at home and school. My prayer is that God will instruct us and inspire us to be influencers for integrity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a great way for our students to show school pride is by wearing Catamount Clothing. There is a wide variety of t-shirts, hoodies, jackets at the school sports store. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org to view and order. This is a good source for our blue and gold days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;for our fall offering we are receiving food for the students at Rolling Ridge. This food will go home in their back packs for their weekends. This is a good way for us to minister school to school. Our goal is to fill 100 bags. This week we brought in 20. The homeroom teachers have the list of recommended food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;next week is a big week for us in the athletic program. We are hosting the NVIAC middle school volleyball tournament. We will have the semifinals on Tuesday and the championship and consolation games on Thursday. The games will be at 4:00 and 5:00pm each day. I need help in helping setup and tear down. I need greeters as well. If you would like to help please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school girls volleyball team will be in action on Monday during the first round of the tournament. I will know on Friday the location and the time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we will have the second annual "Dig for Nicaragua" event on November 11. This will be a way for us to support our middle school mission trip in the spring. We need donated items or services for the silent auction. The fol owing game schedule will happen on this night...&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Girls Volleyball Team Against the Middle School Boys (6th-8th).&lt;br /&gt;6:00pm Middle School Girls Volleyball Team Against the Faculty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school cross country team will be practicing next Wednesday from 2 to 3pm. The NVIAC league meet will then be on October 28th at Burke Lake Park. The bus will leave at 2:00pm. The roster is due on Monday so if your child is interested, please notify me. This is open for boys and girls in 6th-8th grade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week six...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-New York Giants versus Buffalo Bills&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Tampa Bay Buccaneers&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-LeSean McCoy&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Hue Jackson&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I agree with the decision to start John Beck this week. The Redskins will win 28-10 over the Panthers. By the way, it sure was hard to face the biggest Eagle fan I know...Devin Greenhow. I hope we can win the next game against them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1607709736166024960?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1607709736166024960'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1607709736166024960'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/10/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-october_20.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 19, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6255105839771439332</id><published>2011-10-12T11:08:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-12T13:24:10.424-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 12, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from George Allen Sr. He said, "Each of us has been put on earth with the ability to do something well. We cheat ourselves and the world if we don't use that ability as best we can." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school volleyball girls have had some close games this fall. As they seek their first win, I hope you will come out and support them. The schedule is available at www.ccsathletics.org. Please remember that a successful season is not measured through the win column but the character development that occurs! I love how God uses athletics as a platform of our testimony and relationship to Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to provide our teachers and our students with educational and Biblical resources for their personal growth. With that in mind, i have placed copies of the booklet "Bullying in Schools-What You Need to Know" in every middle school homeroom class and our library. This is to be pro-active in informing our students to make right choices in their treatment of others and what to do if they are mistreated. I am thankful for the healthy atmosphere that exists on our campus and may we remain diligent for it to stay that way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Basketball registration is going on right now. You may register at the school, the church or online. This is an opportunity for your child to play in a Christian-based league. It is also a special way to invite unsaved children to play and hear the wonderful message of God's love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.&lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to encourage you to follow County Christian School on Facebook. Mrs. Inabinett is doing an excellent job in putting information, updates and pictures on there that really captures the student life of our school. Please help us reach our goal of 200 followers. This is one way we can have good communication with our growing community. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if your are looking for a place to worship this Sunday, I want to invite you to come hear the exciting message and news about what God is doing in Nicaragua. Dustin Holliday is back in the United States and will be giving a report in both services. For more information, please go to www.cfellowshipc.org. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that the Washington D.C. sports scene for the moment is looking good. the Nats finished third in the National League East, The Caps are undefeated, and the Redskins are in first place over their division rivals. I hope it continues. Please don't ask about the Wizards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week five...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Oakland Raiders Versus the Houston Texans&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Detroit Lions&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Sebastian Janikowski&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Jim Schwartz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Edge (CFC's youth group) is sponsoring an outreach event tonight at Briar Woods High School. It is from 7:00 to 8:30pm. This is their annual Redskins' night and they have invited captains Lorenzo Alexander and London Fletcher to challenge the students. Other Redskins' players will be there as well. There is no cost to attend the event. They will have great door prizes for those that come. It is open for middle and high school students.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was great to see the Bills beat the Eagles and the Seahawks beat the Giants. The Redskins were off this past Sunday, so they did not lose! I am looking for them to beat the Eagles 33-31 this weekend. If we win, we go to 4-1.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6255105839771439332?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6255105839771439332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6255105839771439332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/10/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-october_12.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 12, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4777653033714996127</id><published>2011-10-05T11:58:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-05T12:37:00.572-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 5, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Jim Valvano. He said, "Cancer can take away all my physical abilities. it cannot touch my mind, it cannot touch my heart and it cannot touch my soul. These three things are going to carry on forever." Please pray for those who are recovering or dealing with this horrible disease. Any time you get a chance put some pink on this awareness month. The Redskins wore pink and won on Sunday!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the cross country coach is in place and waiting for runners. Her name is Christine Akagi and she will be training our middle school boys/girls team. There is a sign-up on my office door if you would like to participate. We want to enter runners for the league meet October 28 at Burke Lake Park. There is no cost to join. Details on practice will be announced at a later time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;last year was the first year we did the "Dig for Nicaragua" event. To help put this on, various individuals donated items for our silent auction. If you have something to contribute or would like to be involved in making this happen again, please get in touch with me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org. This goes to support our middle school mission trip.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I still need a middle school girls basketball coach, a middle school boys' health teacher and an elementary cheer leading coach. Someone asked me if "I was worried about these positions?" I replied, "No, I am not. It is God's program. He knows already who is going to do these things." I trust Him on this and if he is speaking to you, step up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Basketball registration for grades 1st-6th starts Sunday. The cost is $85.00 per child. I am praying for 300 kids this year. Registration forms are located at the school office or you may register online at www.countychristianschool.org. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am currently reading Alan Hirsch's book &lt;em&gt;The Forgotten Ways&lt;/em&gt;. It is a call for a complete reorientation of the mission of the church. The information contained in the book will give you a good sense as to where the heart of Christian Fellowship Church is and where God is leading us as believing people. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Character First emphasis this month is obedience. The working definition we will be using is that "obedience is quickly and cheerfully carrying out the direction of those who are responsible for me." Please look for ways to praise our students when you see this in their life at school or home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am excited to announce that along with CFC, our school will be partnering with Rolling Ridge Elementary School for their "backpack buddies" program. This is cool as it lets us minister school to school. A flier will be sent home with each student as to what items we need. This will serve as our fall offering from the school student body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week four...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Dallas Cowboys Versus the Detroit Lions&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Green Bay Packers&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Matt Forte&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Gary Kubiak&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;can 100% guarantee the Washington Redskins will not lose this weekend and that on Monday their record will be 3-1. If I am wrong I will buy you Starbucks. Just a hint...they have a bye this weekend.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4777653033714996127?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4777653033714996127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4777653033714996127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/10/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-october.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 5, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7058362082708956461</id><published>2011-09-28T11:28:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-28T13:01:13.400-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 28, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Lou Holtz. He said, “A lifetime contract for a coach means if you're ahead in the third quarter and moving the ball, they can't fire you.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we had a moving and motivating time of prayer in our chapels today. We participated in "See You At The Pole." It was awesome to see our students in "circles of communication" as they prayed for their school. What power can come to a community when there is unity about seeking God. For more information about this event, you may go to www.syatp.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there are several middle school cross country meets this fall that our school has opportunity to take part in. There is a sign up for the boys and girls team on my door. I would like to have knowledge by Friday who plans to participate. There is no athletic fee for this as there will be limited involvement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department is looking to hire the following: middle school boys health teacher, middle school girls basketball coach and elementary cheer leading coach. If you or someone you know is interested, please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would ask prayer for Mrs. Skinner. Sadly, she broke her ankle on the middle school retreat and is having surgery this afternoon. I hope our faculty and families can minister to her during this time. She is one of those special teachers that gives to everyone. Now it is time for us to give to her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;in spite of the news I just shared with you about the retreat, good things did happen. The students had a fun time with Bible skits, paintball, obstacle course, Frisbee golf, flashlight tag and Catamount Clue. There was no Liberty versus Messiah horseshoes however. By the way, Ivan Chiew tried to knock some sense into me as he pelted me in the head with a great shot. I cannot wait for next year and to make sure I am on his team. He did color my grey hair purple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;for scores and schedules of our Catamount athletic events, please go to www.ccsathletics.org. Directions to the game locations are also available.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.&lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week three...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Stone Bridge High School versus Broad Run High School&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Buffalo Bills&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Torrey Smith&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Chan Gailey&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am slowly recovering from the Monday Misery. I still cannot believe we handed the Cowboys the win. How do we let them convert a 3rd and 21 with the game on the line? How does Grossman not throw the ball out of bounds? How do we let going 3-0 slip away? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins bounce back and get a win over the Rams this Sunday! My score prediction is 28-10.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7058362082708956461?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7058362082708956461'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7058362082708956461'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/09/finally-brethren-whatsoever-things-are.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 28, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-9127790157029004994</id><published>2011-09-28T11:19:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-28T11:27:33.014-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE REAL LION KING!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/yzqTFNfeDnE?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-9127790157029004994?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9127790157029004994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9127790157029004994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/09/real-lion-king.html' title='THE REAL LION KING!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/yzqTFNfeDnE/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6025202040852338696</id><published>2011-09-21T11:28:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-21T12:04:40.858-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SPETEMBER 21, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from "Pistol" Pete Maravich. He said, “There is nothing wrong with dedication and goals, but if you focus on yourself, all the lights fade away and you become a fleeting moment in life.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was a joy to have the Erickson family in our elementary and middle school chapels today. God is using them in a special way in the country of Guatemala. By installing stoves and water filters, doing Bible kid's clubs and ministering to families they are serving as missionaries. Please continue to lift them up in your prayers. We will be partnering with them in the spring on a project.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;for the month of October and November we will be supplying snacks for some students in Rolling Ridge Elementary School. This will be part of their Backpack Buddies program. You will hear more about this the first chapel in October.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I enjoyed my time with the fifth grade last week. We went out for pizza and did some team building at the area "Pump It Up." A special thank you to Pastor Cravens, Mr. Quinterro, Mrs. Russo and Mrs. Fladager for helping in this. The fifth grade is a very important grade as decisions are made to keep them in our middle school. My prayer is that they will stay with us and we can send them out as our eighth grade graduates. This class will be active in helping with service projects on the school and church campus throughout the year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the school is looking to hire a middle school boys' health teacher and a middle school girls basketball coach. If you are interested or know of someone please contact me as soon as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Basketball registration will open in October. This Christ centered league will be for first-sixth graders. The cost is $85.00 per child. Brochures will be located at the school and church offices. You can also register online through www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;for our middle school advanced P.E. club today we had 1757 Golf come over to us. Introduction to the game and basic instruction was given to the students. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would ask your prayers for our seventh and eighth graders specifically for Thursday and Friday. We will be going to the Concord Retreat Center. This is our annual activity for them to get away from everything routine in their life and to let God speak to them. We will be doing many fun games but most important we will have a time of challenge. This year's theme comes from the book of James about being a "doer of the word, not just a hearer only." This will tie in the character traits of attentiveness and obedience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.&lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;these are my "Touchdown Topics" for week two...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Dallas Cowboys versus San Francisco 49'ers&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Detroit Lions&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Tom Brady&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Mike Tomlin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.&lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my prediction for this weeks Redskins' game is that they will win over the Cowboys 17-14. If they do they will be 3-0 on the year.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6025202040852338696?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6025202040852338696'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6025202040852338696'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/09/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_21.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SPETEMBER 21, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6036991982120032371</id><published>2011-09-14T08:34:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-21T12:01:05.080-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 14, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Brian Sipe.  He said, "The only way to maximize potential for performance is to be calm in the mind."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the middle school volleyball team has played in 3 close matches.  Even though this year's team lost several starters from last year, they are proving a difficult opponent for those in our league.  Please go to www.ccsathletics.org for the schedule and scores.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that the games are early in that they start right after school, but it would be great for the school to show thier support with their attendance.  Even if your child does not play, we value your cheering voice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we were blessed in our chapel to have our local cub scout pack lead us in the pledges.  This is a good time for families to consider scouting as a character building and service oriented program for their children.  CFC sponsors a cub scout pack and a boy scout troop.  If interested please contact Mrs. Donna Stuck at donnastuck@mac.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am glad we do have middle school boys soccer this year.  We have played one game agianst Fairfax Home School and we lost 8-0.  The boys made me proud with thie hustle.  I still have a few roster spots open if your child is interested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Character First empahsis is on the trait of "attentiveness."  The faculty are on the lookout for the children who are demonstrating this quality.  The definition we are using is that attentiveness is showing the worth of a person or a task by giving my undivided attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to thank you for purchasing the mission t-shirts.  This serves as our best way to support the middle school mission trip.  I will be giving details about this trip in several weeks.  We will be working through Christian Fellowship Church.  By the way, if you have not visited the local and global outreach webpage for the church, you should take the time (www.cfellowshipc.org). It will encourage you to see what God is doing through this ministry.  Dustin Holliday, Mike Trivett and others are touching lives for Jesus!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need to tell you that I am still in need of Upward soccer coaches and refs for our fall league.  Experience is not needed as we will provide helpful training.  However, you need to have Christ as your Savior and a heart that wants to please Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;each week during the football season I will give you my "Touchdown Topics".  This is for week one...&lt;br /&gt;Game of the Week-Saints versus Packers&lt;br /&gt;Team of the Week-Ravens&lt;br /&gt;Player of the Week-Cam Newton&lt;br /&gt;Coach of the Week-Jim Harbaugh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my prediction for this weeks Redskins' game is that they will win over the Cardinals 35-21.  If they do they will be 2-0 on the year.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6036991982120032371?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6036991982120032371'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6036991982120032371'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/09/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 14, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4165980974795290928</id><published>2011-08-31T19:56:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T20:29:51.324-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-AUGUST 31, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from our 38th President Gerald Ford. He said, "If it is a cliché to say athletics build character as well as muscle, then I subscribe to the cliché."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need to know who is doing fall boys soccer and fall boys/girls cross country. Our coaches are hired and looking forward to the respected seasons. Their is a sign-up on my office door. It would be helpful if I had your name by the end of Thursday's school day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I made a personal note of the importance of a good start while watching Olympic Champion Usain Bolt get disqualified for a false start. One must be attentive and act accordingly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it has been great to see the students back on the campus. Please pray with us for a successful Spirit-filled school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Thursday we will have our first Upward practice of the season. There is still a need for coaches and referees. If you are a parent within the school this can count for your volunteer hours. We have over 200 kids participating in the program.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am looking forward to the opening day of Upward soccer games. The local cub scouts will be presenting the colors. A moment of silent remembrance will be given for the 9-1-1 victims and their families. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this year for their physical education class, the fourth through eighth grade will be dressing out. P.E uniforms can be ordered through my office for $20.00. This includes a shirt and a pair of shorts with the Catamount logo on it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;God is our everything in an earthquake, our hope in a hurricane, our truth in a tornado and our shelter in a storm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to send out a special thank you to Charles Tull for helping me line the Upward soccer fields and filling in for middle school boys health. He has a true servant's heart. By the way he also went to Liberty University.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my name has not been mentioned in the Redskins' quarterback competition. The media is just talking about Grossman and Beck. Maybe I will surprise some people. I am looking forward to the final preseason game Thursday night. At this point, I think I would go with #12.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4165980974795290928?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4165980974795290928'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4165980974795290928'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/08/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-august.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-AUGUST 31, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5471169227761680673</id><published>2011-08-05T15:14:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T19:54:38.317-04:00</updated><title type='text'>ROSCOE RISING ABOVE THE RIM!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/nO00iNUPfvI?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5471169227761680673?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5471169227761680673'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5471169227761680673'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/08/fridays-film.html' title='ROSCOE RISING ABOVE THE RIM!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/nO00iNUPfvI/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7158073970619316243</id><published>2011-08-04T11:08:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-04T11:49:11.930-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-AUGUST 3, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Bobby Dodd. He said, "Either love your players or get out of coaching."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am pleased to announce the hiring of Sandra Cravens as our new middle school girls volleyball coach. She brings a Christlike testimony and a servant willingness to her position. She recently was the high school head coach of Northern Virginia Christian Academy. While at NVCA, she participated in the NVIAC. This experience will help her greatly. She is familiar with our school as her daughter (Hailey)is in the fifth grade and her husband (Will)is one of the pastors at CFC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that our middle school girls volleyball pre-season practice schedule will go as follows:&lt;br /&gt;Monday August 22 3:30-5:00pm&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday August 23 3:30-5:00pm&lt;br /&gt;Thursday August 25 3:30-5:00pm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if your are playing middle school girls volleyball or middle school boys soccer I need to know that as soon as possible. Please email me back with confirmation so I can see how the roster will look like. Once I know we will have enough boys, I will send out the practice schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;from a finance perspective, all athletic fees will be deducted from the parents FACTS account. This is a change for this year. Home School players will still pay by check or cash. The fee amount is the same as it has been at $150.00. If you have any questions, please let me know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.&lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;the school has bought a brand new bus and the Catamounts will be traveling in it and winning games this year. Thanks to Mrs. Barker and Mr. Stone for helping make this happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;as a reminder, the athletic program is for 5th-8th grade students. It is a great opportunity for our young players to get game and practice time in. Plus, it gives our 8th graders a responsibility of mentoring and encouraging. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there is still room in our Upward fall soccer league. This is for 4yr old-6th grade. It is for boys and girls. Thursday night one hour practices and Saturday morning games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the CFC All Star Men's basketball team traveled and played in an all night basketball tournament last weekend. They cam away with a 3-2 record and finished in the top 8. I am proud of the guys.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I asked Lorenzo Alexander how many different positions he has played for the Washington Redskins in his career and he told me 7. How about that for versatility and flexibility! My prayer is that I would have that same attitude when God tells me to do something new! By the way, Lorenzo is doing some amazing charitable work in our area. I will have more details to com one this later.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7158073970619316243?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7158073970619316243'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7158073970619316243'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/08/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-AUGUST 3, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5352212372829168464</id><published>2011-07-27T17:19:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-07-27T17:42:39.221-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JULY 27, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from William Arthur Ward. He said, "adversity causes some men to break; others to break records." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to thank the volunteers who helped conduct the two Upward soccer evaluations the past two weeks. They endured the heat, encouraged the kids and exemplified a servant's heart. I could not have done it without them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have 173 kids registered for the upcoming fall season. I am praying and hoping we reach over 200 this year. You may still register online at www.countychristianschool.org The league is for 4yr olds to 6th grade and is for boys and girls. They will play in separate divisions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am in the interviewing process for our new middle school girls volleyball coach. Coach Roos will not be returning as he is dealing with family sickness and situations. Please pray for him and his wife. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Character First material has been ordered and I am looking forward to the school-wide emphasis this year. The trait for September is attentiveness. I believe that is appropriate to start the classes off with. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that I am praying every teacher has opportunity in their classes to have intentional Bible integration. I am so thankful that God gave us His Word and that it is real, relevant and reliable! Can I get an Amen?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;in the past several weeks, death has hit close to me. Although there have been tears and sorrow, I know that his truth and scripture have promises for me to stand on and share with others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this Friday, a collection of all stars from the CFC men's league will be competing in a tournament at SVCA. I am looking forward to us representing our church and reflecting Christ to those we play against. Aaron "Serious" Simmons has taken the lead on this and is doing a great job for us organizing and recruiting the players. It is an all night tournament and should be very exciting. Any fans that want to come please come to Stephens City. The games start at 7:15pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Sun, sand and surf is calling my name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the NFL lockout is over and training camp is starting. The new season brings an unblemished record until the games begin. I am working on my prediction for the season which I will post next week. As of this writing, we have signed 14 wide receivers and have just traded McNabb. Maybe I could be another receiver on the roster or with my versatility throw to them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5352212372829168464?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5352212372829168464'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5352212372829168464'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/07/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-july-27.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JULY 27, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3255595274597769746</id><published>2011-07-22T13:52:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T19:55:45.227-04:00</updated><title type='text'>STORY OF SPORTSMANSHIP AND SOFTBALL</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jocw-oD2pgo?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3255595274597769746?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3255595274597769746'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3255595274597769746'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/07/friday-feature.html' title='STORY OF SPORTSMANSHIP AND SOFTBALL'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/jocw-oD2pgo/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3548942817847612012</id><published>2011-07-13T14:54:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-07-13T15:31:07.706-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JULY 13, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Rod Carew. He said, "Do you believe you're a starter or a benchwarmer? Do you believe you're an all-star or an also-ran?If the answers to these questions are the latter, your play on the field will reflect it. But when you've learned to shut off outside influences and believe in yourself, there's no telling how good a player you can be.  That's because you have the mental edge."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am enjoying re-reading the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell. For me to be a better leader, I must make sure I am listening and learning every day. Intentional improvement is better than thinking growth will just happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I have finished the design of the upcoming mission t-shirts for the coming school year. I am hoping the students and faculty will be pleased with them. I am glad we will be able to use these shirts to bring in money for our middle school short term mission trip again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would like for you to pray for the completing of our coaching staff. I am in the process of looking for and hiring a girls middle school volleyball coach. If you can help point me to someone or you are interested please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am pleased to report that we had 68 campers for our Court Vision Basketball Camp. We have hosted this camp for 6 years now and it gets better and better. We will be doing it again next year God willing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I was scanning the channels and came across the movie Hoosiers. Just so you know that it is my all-time favorite. I wish my jump shot was as good as Jimmy Chitwood's.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Soccer registration is going on now. We will have divisions for 4 year olds to 6th grade. There is still room so please get in your forms now. We will have evaluations tomorrow night from 6:00 to 7:30pm. The cost for the league is $85.00 per child. For more information please go to www.countychristianschool.org and click on the Upward tab.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am excited that the United States women's soccer team has advanced to the World Cup finals. I am hoping they bring the title back from Germany on Sunday. If you ever want to see clutch play, all you have to do is watch Abby Wambach! She has a will to win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that the Nationals can make some news in the second half if their bats are "Werth" anything. With the lack of hitting, they are still at .500. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am still on the look out for the lock out to be over. I cannot wait to see what we do in free agency. I want the Redskins know that I am still available for consultation anytime.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3548942817847612012?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3548942817847612012'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3548942817847612012'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/07/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-july-13.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JULY 13, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1728562784861287276</id><published>2011-07-11T14:05:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-07-11T14:05:42.098-04:00</updated><title type='text'>FANTASTIC FINISH AT THE FAR POST</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JOAJn8h6VAI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1728562784861287276?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1728562784861287276'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1728562784861287276'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/07/fantastic-finish-at-far-post.html' title='FANTASTIC FINISH AT THE FAR POST'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/JOAJn8h6VAI/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-577697894401507190</id><published>2011-06-22T10:45:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-06-22T15:59:26.842-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JUNE 22, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Harvey Pennick. He said "I learn teaching from teachers. I learn golf from golfers. I learn winning from coaches."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am wondering how many people knew I did not write on my blog for two weeks?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we are in the midst of the Court vision basketball camp here at the school. We have a record high of 68 players participating this year. I am thankful for the help that Simon and Victor Martinez give to the athletic department each year. They bring quality basketball players with them each time with servant's hearts. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need to hire a middle school girls volleyball coach and a co-ed cross country coach for next year. If you are interested or would like to recommend someone to me, please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;on the personal side of things, I would like for you to lift me up in prayer. This past month I was nominated and elected the President of the Northern Virginia Independent Athletic Conference. I need God's guidance and grace as I serve in this position. May what we do in our league meetings, games and tournaments bring ultimate glory to Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this past weekend was Father's day. I am joyful and thankful that my Dad is a fantastic friend, empowering encourager, caring counselor and loving leader. To this day he pushes me to push myself and press on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the NBA Finals were proof that you can be under 6 foot tall and make a huge difference in a basketball game. J.J. Barea once inserted in the starting lineup had incredible impact. It makes me think what would have happened if I ever got into the starting lineup more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am enjoying playing basketball on Friday mornings with some Catamount graduates and some Upward coaches. We start at 7a.m. and go to 8a.m. We are always looking for fun and fellowship, so if you would like to join us feel free. By the way, if you see my jump shot it has been missing for several years. When found please return it to me as soon as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;registration for Upward soccer for the fall 2011 season is available at www.countychristianschool.org. The practices start in August and games start in September.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;all three Redskin quarterbacks are making headlines. I sure would like some good news to come about the lockout so we can see which one makes touchdown passes!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-577697894401507190?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/577697894401507190'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/577697894401507190'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/06/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-june-22.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JUNE 22, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-8489649374803804179</id><published>2011-06-01T12:31:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-06-01T13:49:24.926-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JUNE 1, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Will Rogers. He said, "I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf. I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there is still room in the Court Vision Basketball Camp. The camp is Christ centered and holds to the same values of Upward basketball. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org for more information. It is open for 1st-8th graders. The good news is that it is a local camp, inexpensive and coordinated by fine Christian young men.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am in the hiring process for our coaches for next year. We will have opening for middle schoolgirls volleyball and middle school girls cheer leading. Please email me any referrals or resumes you can at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this weekend we will finish Upward Flag Football and start registering for the Upward fall soccer season. I want to thank my league director, Chris Gunderson, for his leadership in making the first season of football a success. It is one of those times of seeing a dream become a reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;out special speaker for the Upward Award Ceremony on Saturday is Matt Fore. He will be a blessing to our teams. He is with Sure Fire Entertainment and will provide illusions and comedy. I am most excited for him to share the gospel and am praying we see children come to Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I enjoyed sharing my heart and vision for the middle school last night at orientation. I hope we will continually remember the motto for the Catamounts. It is "do all you can, with what you have, where you are, for the glory of God."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if your child was not at the award banquet, their certificates and trophies (if applicable) are available in my office. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;every year the athletic department accumulates a large lost and found. What we have this year is on tables in the weight room. The weight room is located beside the gym. Please take a look to see if there is any of your child's stuff. What is not claimed will be donated to the mission field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to go on record saying that it was easier for me to root for Lebron James when he was in Cleveland. I wish he would have stayed there and continued his career. With that said, I am for the Dallas Mavaricks in the final.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I like hearing that the Redskins are having practices and working on their game. I am thankful for the dedication of London Fletcher and Lorenzo Alexander. They are Christian men and do a lot for our local community.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-8489649374803804179?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8489649374803804179'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8489649374803804179'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/06/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-june-1.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JUNE 1, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-8088163836010705354</id><published>2011-05-25T12:39:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-25T13:52:47.345-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 25, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to thank everyone that came to the annual athletic award banquet. "THE CATSPYS" was a successful time of food, fun and fellowship. If you missed the evening, we had special music by Liberty University student Joy Lippard. We were blessed by her ministry. You can learn and listen to more of her at www.joylippard.com. Joy also use to come here to our school!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was so good to have Jonathan Geukgeuzian as our motivational speaker. Any comments that he said about me are to be taken with grace and laughter. I am so proud of him for serving the Lord and training up future workers for the kingdom of God. I still think I could beat him in a 3 point contest though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the sport pictures that were used to decorate for the banquet can be ordered through sdinelli@countychristianschool.org. There are some amazing and awesome photos of our players that will make good memory makers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our spring sport team/individual pictures will be taken tomorrow at 2:00pm. We finally get to have our girls soccer and boys flag football team get these done. After pictures, I will collect their uniforms and they will sign them in. Please check our sport's website for the updated records of all the 2010-11 teams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to remind you of our school store. This is a good way for you to purchase quality blue and gold clothing that helps promote the Catamounts in the community. We now have a school shirt in the local Fudruckers representing CCS!. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org for more information. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;registration is now open for our Court Vision Basketball Camp. The dates are June 20th-24th. The fee is $125.00. This is a Christian based camp and holds the same principles and philosophies as our Upward Sports Program. We have hosted this camp for several years now and it seems to be a real blessing to the kids who come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our 4th and 5th grade students helped CFC's local outreach ministry by getting school backpack ready for Rolling Ridge Elementary School. I appreciate the good partnership we have with Mr. Trivett in making a difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;for our weekly chapel today, we had the privilege of having the Gideons International come and distribute New Testaments. I wish they were allowed to go into our local public schools but they are not. We challenged them to help spread and share it. I am praying that the Word of God that was given out today will find it's way to a person who has never had one of his/her own. Yes, they exist in Loudoun County Virginia. The Gideons are precious to my heart as my dad served in the local Sterling Camp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there are no Upward Flag Football games this weekend due to the Memorial Day Weekend. I hope it is a time of refreshing, relaxing and renewing for all of our families.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I really want Redskins' football to start. I was reminded of the tragedy of Sean Taylor this week as I saw a jersey of his. We must understand we cannot predict the end of the world nor when our life will come to an end. Let us aspire to inspire before we expire.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-8088163836010705354?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8088163836010705354'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8088163836010705354'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/05/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-may-25.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 25, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4966440526586622615</id><published>2011-05-25T10:42:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-25T10:42:50.303-04:00</updated><title type='text'>WHEN THINGS DO NOT GO AS PLANNED...</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gUDvarSZPnU?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4966440526586622615?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4966440526586622615'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4966440526586622615'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/05/when-things-do-not-go-as-planned.html' title='WHEN THINGS DO NOT GO AS PLANNED...'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/gUDvarSZPnU/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-9091946612219829983</id><published>2011-05-23T14:58:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-23T15:08:31.048-04:00</updated><title type='text'>CONGRATS TO THE CATAMOUNTS!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Girls Volleyball&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most Valuable Player -

Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Mike Singletary. He said, "Do you know what my favorite part of the game is? The opportunity to play."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the two trophies for the NVIAC Godly Character Award are on display in the foyer of 600. I am so proud of the teams for their representation of our Savior and our School.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I love it when the preschool classes walk by my door and yell "Go Catamounts!" It encourages me to keep working, keep going, keep planning so that when they are eligible to play we will have a program of excellence for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a special thank you to Esther Schaeffer, Dustin Holliday, Ben Cooper and Kore Bendix for serving on the panel during the Career Chapel. I appreciate the words and wisdom they had to share to our students. We are able to learn things from our own experiences but we can also learn from the experience of others. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am working on a makeup game for the middle school girls soccer team against TMV. I really would like to play this game for our 8th graders and have them play one more home game. Please keep checking your email or the sport schedule at www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have had a time with team pictures this year. I apologize for the confusion and the cancellations. I am working with Blanton Studios on a rescheduled time. I will let you know as soon as I do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;one of my favorite nights of the year is this Friday night. You are invited to join me at the "CATSPYS" at 7:00pm. This is our annual athletic banquet and will be in room 123. This is a time for the Blue and Gold to come together and celebrate what happened this year on the court and on the field. Dinner will be served, awards handed out and a slide show of the year will be presented. During the evening together, I will announce who made NVIAC All League in each sport.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would like for the boys to be in ties and the girls to be in dresses for the banquet. Please help me in making this happen. I think it is one of the night's of the school year where we can go semi-formal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it would be a nice touch for the teams to show their thoughtfulness to their coach with a small gift. Please know i am writing this as the athletic director not the soccer coach. Our coaches did an amazing job this year and I am proud of each one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the NFL lockout is still going on. The talk around Washington DC is that John Beck will be the starting quarterback if the season is played. Where are the days of Baugh, Jurgensen, Kilmer and Theismann?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7511484896556663140?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7511484896556663140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7511484896556663140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/05/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-may-1.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 18, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5233899661492826634</id><published>2011-05-14T14:57:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-14T14:58:22.828-04:00</updated><title type='text'>DIVING DETERMINATION</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RMLzM5sZ2D0?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5233899661492826634?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5233899661492826634'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5233899661492826634'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/05/diving-determination.html' title='DIVING DETERMINATION'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/RMLzM5sZ2D0/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5357097427357527472</id><published>2011-05-11T10:59:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-11T11:40:22.700-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 11, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS&lt;/strong&gt;." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Seve Ballesteros. For those of you who follow sports, you know that he recently died. He left us with a lot of golfing memories. He said, "To give yourself the best possible chance of playing to your potential, you must prepare for every eventuality. That means practice."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am so proud of the middle school boys flag football team and the middle school girls soccer team for winning the NVIAC Godly Character trophy. This means more to me than a championship and represents the special students we have in our athletic program. This recognition is voted on by the coaches and athletic directors that we played against. I love how we can be Christlike in the midst of competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school boys flag football team finished with a record of 3-5. They finished third in the regular season and in the tournament. Way to go Coach Sizemore ad team!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school girls soccer team finished their regular season NVIAC play with a record of 3-4-1. They finished 5th in the league and lost to Hearts Home School in the first round of the tournament 2-1. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the soccer season is still going and has one more important game on May 17 at 4:30pm. This will be our 8th graders last home game. We host Trinity Meadowview. There will be a special recognition for parents and our graduates at halftime. Please plan to come and cheer!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I always get excited for the annual athletic banquet. It will be May 20 at 7pm. We will meet in room 123 for a time of food, fellowship and fun. Certificates and awards will be given out. If you would like to help with this event, please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am in need of sports photographs from throughout the year. This will help us for the end of the year slide show and the decorations. Please either email them to me or drop them by my office no later than this Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we will have spring sport pictures on May 17th at 2:00pm. Your child will be bringing home an order form today. Please make sure they come prepared. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we will have our "Court Vision Basketball Camp" this summer. For more information go to www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Mrs. Skinner is taking all the credit for this year's Redskin top draft pick. His name is Ryan Kerrigan and went to Purdue. For those of you who do not know Mrs. Skinner went there and majored in Shopology. She has her Master degree from Dulles Town Center.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5357097427357527472?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5357097427357527472'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5357097427357527472'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/05/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-may-11.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 11, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7291007779259690110</id><published>2011-05-04T08:27:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-04T11:36:52.279-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MAY 4, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from John Wooden. He said, "Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Hell is in the headlines right now. From comments of Rob Bell's new book to the comments on Bin Laden, there is a lot being said about this Bible doctrine. Please use this time to talk to your family about what the Bible says about this real place. Remember that God desires that "none should perish but that all should come to repentance." I am glad Jesus made heaven possible and hell avoidable for all of us. May we trust him as our Saviour for our souls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;in God's government judgment is just, grounded in grace and measured by mercy. How do we react with all that is going on in our World today? Micah the prophet of old wrote "to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our soldiers do an incredible sacrifice each and every day to keep us safe! It may not make the newspaper or the newscast, but their fight for freedom is faithful to our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think&lt;/strong&gt; volleyball and basketball pictures will go home to the players today. If your order is not correct, I encourage you to contact Blanton Studios directly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our volleyball team needs to honor their commitments of the Dig for Nicaragua event. Coach Roos is trying to hold an outside workday and needs your attendance. Please respond to Coach Roos or Mrs Burchette as soon as possible of when you can help. The planned date is this Saturday from 9 to 1 in South Riding. Here is some information from the coach..."This clean up is happening rain or shine. The location is 42759 Freedom St. South Riding. Please wear clothing suitable for yard work such as pulling weeds, raking, planting flowers, etc. Please bring gloves and a water bottle."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this Thursday is the National Day of Prayer. We will be participating in this school wide. We will be having a Bible Reading Marathon in the Chapel. Each class will have an assigned time to come. I invite all of our parents to join us. Please check with your child's teacher as to when to come. The theme this year is "A Mighty Fortress is our God."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;on Friday we will have Blue and Gold Day! This is a time to show our school spirit. We have a huge home middle school girls soccer game on Friday afternoon at 4:00pm. We play Hearts Home School. I would like to have a record attendance for the game. The team has been playing hard and I think you would enjoy watching their effort and energy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the NVIAC tournaments for middle school boys flag football and girls soccer is next week. The standings will be determined this Friday night and will be posted at www.nviac.org. The end of the year is near so please come out and cheer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the annual athletic banquet is May 20th at 7pm. We will meet in room 123for the dinner and awards. We call it the "Catspys". This is for our 5th-8th grade teams. Parents are need to serve on the decoration and food committee. Please get in touch with me if interested. This can go toward your volunteer hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am curious to who the starting quarterback for the Washington Redskins will be.

Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Wayne Gretzky. He said, "The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;one of our athletes has some exciting days ahead of her. 7th grader Allyn Anness will be headed to Nicaragua this Spring Break to take part in the CFC mission trip. She will help with the orphanage there. Then, as soon as she gets back, she moves to Texas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it is sad to say goodbye to her, but God has a special plan and purpose for her and her family. She is a privileged to coach on the field and to teach in the classroom. Our school is better for her involvement and attitude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;in reference to the mission trip she will be on, we want to send her with money to help the schools and orphanage there. We enjoy an on-going partnership with them and hopefully will be able to bless them. Please bring in your "pig pages" by Thursday afternoon so we can get this assistance to them. We are still taking offering on this so if you would like to help, please give to the front desk or bring it to my office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;last fall we hosted our first Dig for Nicaragua event. Our volleyball girls will be fulfilling their landscape duties that were agreed on at the auction. This will take place over spring break. If you were on the volleyball team please contact Coach Roos as soon as possible to let him know of your availability next Thursday. He can be reached at dennis.roos@loudoun.k12.va.us&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a date that should be on your calendar is our Athletic Banquet on May 20, 2011. It will be held in room 123 at 7pm. All players involved in middle school girls volleyball, girls and boys basketball, girls soccer, boys flag football, and elementary/middle school girls cheer leading will receive a certificate and appreciation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a nice dinner will be provided as well as we will have the privilege of having Jonathan Geukgeuzian as our special speaker. He is a Youth Ministry Professor at Liberty University. He was the shooting guard on the basketball team that I played point guard on in high school. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;at the banquet there will be 6 awards given to each team that include most valuable player, most improved player, best offensive player, best defensive player, coach's award, and newcomer of the year award. On top of all that our highest award, The Triple Threat, will be given to the 8th grader who excelled in academics, athletics and attitude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the weather is playing a role in our spring schedules. Please check www.ccsathletics.org for updates and directions. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am not optimistic about the Redskins playing this year, however I see the pre-season schedule starts off against the Steelers. I am sure I will be hearing from my friends that are fans of the black and yellow.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4752455059891462617?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4752455059891462617'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4752455059891462617'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/04/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-april.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-APRIL 13, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3025109457579525096</id><published>2011-04-06T10:55:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-06T11:31:07.381-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-APRIL 6, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Knute Rockne. He said, "Football is a game played with arms, legs and shoulders but mostly from the neck up."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the CCS middle school boys flag football team will play their first games tomorrow at Virginia Academy. It is a double header and the times will be 4:15and 5:30pm. They will leave from door 1100 at 3:15pm. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org for the updated schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Coach Sizemore and the boys have installed the "Catamount Coast" offense and are ready to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Upward Flag Football season will also start tomorrow night. At this time it is a ten team league with over 80 players in it. Good beginning for us. We could still use coaches, timers and referees. What is exciting for me is that we have kids playing in the football league that are new to our Upward program. May we reach and teach as many kids as we can for the Kingdom through sports!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the CCS middle school soccer team had a strong defensive game against Leesburg Christian School last week. We tied one to one. Cheyenne Burchette scored for the Lady Catamounts and Carissa Hack was steady as goalie. We have been rained out twice but return to action this Friday against Trinity Meadowview at 4:30pm. This will be our first home game. Be early. Be enthusiastic. Be encouraging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we will have a special presentation for our students this Friday at 2:00pm in the gym. The African Acrobats will be our guest and will do a wide array of activities. This will be a fun way to end the day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;also on Friday to promote school spirit, we will have a Blue and Gold Day. Please wear your school colors as we unite to cheer on our teams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the following are the results from the NCAA Men's bracket picks. This is a tradition as the picks are posted on my door throughout the month of March. This time a teacher won. The winner is the one that had the most right. The first four play in games were not included. Congratulations to our informed Librarian!&lt;br /&gt;Mrs. Elizabeth Hutchinson 38&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Tony Pangle 36&lt;br /&gt;Morgan, Noah, Katherine, Jenny, Hannah (our 6th graders) 34&lt;br /&gt;Max Skirkanich (Last year's champion) 33&lt;br /&gt;Mrs. Leonhardt and Devin Greenhow 33&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Charles Tull 32&lt;br /&gt;Mrs. BJ 29.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;that it has been a tough year for sport pictures and getting them ordered. I thank you for your patience and need you to follow these steps. For the volleyball, basketball and cheer leading pictures please go to this link to order. http://www.simplephoto.com/JacksonBlanton_CountryChristianSchoolSportsPhotos187376.htm. Even if you have filled out paperwork, please do it this way. This will help to avoid confusion and assure you of your order being processed. For the spring sports, i am hoping it goes better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I miss Redskins' Football. I am not sure who they will draft but I hope we go either offensive or defensive lineman!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3025109457579525096?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3025109457579525096'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3025109457579525096'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/04/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-april-6.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-APRIL 6, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1079952498571082373</id><published>2011-03-29T09:53:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-03-29T09:54:04.934-04:00</updated><title type='text'>PAUSE FOR APPLAUSE</title><content type='html'>Psalm 115:1 "Not to us, Lord, not to us but to Your name be the glory, because of Your love and faithfulness."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have watched the NCAA Basketball Tournament, you have seen some exciting games. I mean, how about Virginia Commonwealth University?  A team from Virginia in the Final Four…that’s what I am talking about.  Sadly, my bracket did not have them advancing that far.  But I hope this year’s Cinderella keeps dancing to the Championship.  After each game, the television networks interview the coaches and players on the game and future games.  I always listen to see who is given the credit for the victory.  Sometimes it is the players, sometimes it is the coach, sometimes it is the fans, and then sometimes God is even mentioned.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if you were to be interviewed about the success of your life, what would be your comment?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a song we love to sing at Christian Fellowship Church that uses the words of this verse.  In fact, I liked it so much when I coached the middle school boys basketball team a year ago, it was one of the songs chosen to warm-up to.  It's a powerful reminder that everything we accomplish isn't because of what we've done but rather what He's done. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We sometimes tend to think any success we experience is through our own efforts. After all, we've been the ones working diligently and remaining focused. Wasn't it through our connections and motivation? Shouldn't any sort of gain be because of us?&lt;br /&gt;This verse reminds us that everything comes from God. We shouldn't be patting ourselves on the back. Our success isn't because of our connections or personal drive. Of course it plays a big role. You've got to be focused to accomplish anything. However, we are sadly mistaken, if we think God isn't the main factor in our success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's the One whose placed you where you are. It's because of Him that you've made those contacts. He's the one whose given you your vision for success. &lt;br /&gt;In anything you do it isn't you who deserves the glory. It's God who gets the credit. Make sure you stop and give Him praise today for all He's done in your life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever the accomplishments, whatever the appreciations, and whatever the accolades may we pause to give Him Applause!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1079952498571082373?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1079952498571082373'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1079952498571082373'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/03/pause-for-applause.html' title='PAUSE FOR APPLAUSE'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6784701571572140424</id><published>2011-03-16T10:28:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-03-16T12:53:14.760-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MARCH 16, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Coach Paul McCallister. He said, "Professional coaches measure success in rings. College coaches measure success in championships. High School coaches measure success to titles. Middle School coaches measure success in smiles."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to remind you that our girls volleyball team, our girls basketball team, our boys basketball team and our cheer leaders will have their team and individual pictures today in the gym. The schedule is as follows:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2:00-2:15 Middle School Girls Volleyball Pictures&lt;br /&gt;2:15-2:30 Elementary and Middle School Girls Cheer leading Pictures&lt;br /&gt;2:30-2:45 Middle School Boys Basketball Pictures&lt;br /&gt;2:45-3:00 Middle School Girls Basketball Pictures&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we should have good weather for our Upward flag football evaluations this Thursday. The times are from 6:00-7:30pm. We still have room to register and you may do so during this time. The league is for 1st-6th grade boys and girls. For more information go to this link http://clubs.bluesombrero.com/Default.aspx?alias=clubs.bluesombrero.com/cfellowshipc&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am excited about our Mission Week next week. The classes will be doing various projects and activities. Please check with their home room teacher for further details. The basic layout of the week is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Monday March 21- Blue and Gold Casual Day-only for those students who bring a dollar offering to go to the needs of the Japan Earthquake survivors. We are working with the World Help Organization for this assistance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday March 22-Work and decorate rooms&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wednesday March 23-9:15 – Chapel with a mission emphasis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thursday March 24-9:00-12:00 Tour of the Countries&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friday March 25 Day of Service&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school will have two teams this spring- Girls soccer and boys flag football. Keep checking www.ccsathletics.org for game times. I ask that you come encourage and be enthusiastic for the Catamounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I will be teaching the Outlive Your Life Series on Wednesday nights beginning next week here on our campus. This is the same study I led the school faculty on and we are opening it up to the parent community. Please email me or call me for more information. It will be from 7:00-8:30pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward basketball has two more weekends left. On March 26th, we will have as our special speaker Mark Lippard of Sure-Fire Entertainment. He has been booked for over a year and we are blessed to have him. This event will take place in wing 700 and begin at 3:30PM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a congratulations to my old high school, SVCA, for winning the Division 3 NACA National Championship in Dayton Tennessee last week. They won it on the foul line with less than a second to go. Congratulations to our local school Potomac Falls on their back to back state basketball championship. They won it on a three-pointer with less than 3 seconds to play. Awesome games and highlights. Role players not their star players made these plays. You never know when it is your time to shine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;as per tradition, some of the faculty and students have put their NCAA Basketball Championship brackets on my office door. My final four includes Ohio State, Duke, Notre Dame and Florida. With Ohio State winning the tournament and bring the trophy to the Big Ten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;that if the Redskins stay locked out and are not allowed to play this coming year,that Dan Snyder should let the Catamounts use their turf field this spring for soccer and flag football.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6784701571572140424?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6784701571572140424'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6784701571572140424'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/03/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-march.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MARCH 16, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6059330761683225220</id><published>2011-03-08T11:58:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-08T11:59:24.544-05:00</updated><title type='text'>WHO SAYS BASKETBALL IS A TALL MEN'S GAME?</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zO6dOFtPg6M?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6059330761683225220?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6059330761683225220'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6059330761683225220'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/03/who-says-basketball-is-tall-mens-game.html' title='WHO SAYS BASKETBALL IS A TALL MEN&apos;S GAME?'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/zO6dOFtPg6M/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5803203566040121036</id><published>2011-03-04T11:19:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-04T11:23:24.111-05:00</updated><title type='text'>MY RESUME AND REFERENCE</title><content type='html'>WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT ME!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JOHN 1:12 I AM A CHILD OF GOD (ROMANS 8:16).&lt;br /&gt;JOHN 15:1, 5 I AM A PART OF THE TRUE VINE, A CHANNEL (BRANCH) OF HIS LIFE.&lt;br /&gt;JOHN 15:15 I AM CHRIST’S FRIEND.&lt;br /&gt;JOHN 15:16 I AM CHOSEN AND APPOINTED BY CHRIST TO BEAR HIS FRUIT.&lt;br /&gt;ACTS 1:8 I AM A PERSONAL WITNESS OF CHRIST FOR CHRIST.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 3:24 I HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED AND REDEEMED.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 5:1 I HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED (COMPLETELY FORGIVEN AND MADE RIGHTEOUS) AND AM AT PEACE WITH GOD.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 6:1-6 I DIED WITH CHRIST AND DIED TO THE POWER OF SIN'S RULE IN MY LIFE.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 6:7 I HAVE BEEN FREED FROM SIN'S POWER OVER ME.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 6:18 I AM A SLAVE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 6:22 I AM ENSLAVED TO GOD.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 8:1 I AM FOREVER FREE FROM CONDEMNATION.&lt;br /&gt;ROMANS 8:14, 15 I AM A SON OF GOD (GOD IS LITERALLY MY "PAPA")&lt;br /&gt;(GALATIANS 3:26;

Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from "Pistol" Pete Maravich.  He said, "There is nothing wrong with dedication and goals, but if you focus on yourself, all the lights fade away and you become a fleeting moment in life.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was a fun time last night at Fuddruckers.  What a special group of families that make up CCS.  A special thank you to Sarah Hansma for organizing the event and making sure the Catamount T-shirt got hung with all the other local schools.  Let's get the word out about County Christan School so that we are not the best kept secret in Loudoun County.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Flag Football evaluations are Thursday from 6:00-7:30pm.  I need some parental volunteers to help me set up and run the evening.  With it going on the same time as basketball our people will be maxed out.  Please email me or call me if you would like to assist.  This can be used for school volunteer hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there is still room for 1st-6th grade boys and girls for the Upward flag football season.  Brochures and registration forms are availiable ate the receptionist desk or online at www.countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am proud of how our middle school basketball teams competed against the competition this year.  Even though the records do not indicate winning success, the teams got better and improved from the start of the season.  They are working now on scheduling their team parties.  Please make sure our coaches know how much you appreciate their work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our cheerleaders were very helpful at our pep rally and during our home basketball games.  I hope that our girls continue to stay with this and that we will build some exciting squads.  It makes a difference when they are there at our games rooting for the Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our winter sports pictures have been rescheduled for Wednesday March 9th at 2pm.  Please make sure that if you were on the volleyball team, basketball team or cheerleading you come prepared on this day.  Picture order forms are available through the athletic office.  I apologize for the scheduling problems we have had in getting this done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department is in need borrowing some outdoor self-standing halogen lights. These will be used for the next two thursday nights.  If you could help on this get in touch with me as soon as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if anyone knowS a hockey coach or someone who has knowledge of the game, our advanced middle school P.E. Club could use his/her assistance on Wednesdays at 2:00pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that Redskins' running back Clinton Portis gave us some good yardage and years when he was here.  His release this week makes sure that John Riggins will keep the all-time rushing record for Washington.  I love the famous Riggo run in the Super Bowl against the Miami Doplphins.  I still watch it to encourage me about my team!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7073280724455497453?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7073280724455497453'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7073280724455497453'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/03/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-march-2.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-MARCH 2, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-2761167568297309420</id><published>2011-02-20T13:28:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-20T13:28:51.245-05:00</updated><title type='text'>WOW FOR THE WIZARDS</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MNJ0K8qdq00?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-2761167568297309420?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2761167568297309420'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2761167568297309420'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/02/wow-for-wizards.html' title='WOW FOR THE WIZARDS'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/MNJ0K8qdq00/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4832152123189526209</id><published>2011-02-17T13:15:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-17T13:50:05.557-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-FEBRUARY 17, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Rick Pitino. He said, "Excellence is the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what you have to offer."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;that this has been a fun-filled week through the halls of County Christian School. Today the students and faculty have participated in Team Jersey Day. My favorite jersey of the day, besides my Chris Cooley, is the Tim Tebow one. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Friday is going to be an awesome day. It will be a lot of excitement. I still need alumni and faculty for the evening games. I want to be able to have a women's game and a men's game. Please send an alert to my office so I know how many are playing and how many I need to feed. This is open to all our teachers and former 8th grade graduates, high school students and homeschoolers that have played for the Catamounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Friday is Blue and Gold Day. Wear your team colors. I saw some Cowboys, Eagles, Ravens, Steelers, Bengals, Broncos and even a Purdue Boilernaker on campus today. However, we are all Catamounts on Friday! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Friday(February 18) schedule is as follows:&lt;br /&gt;1:00pm Middle School Girls Volleyball Picture Retakes &lt;br /&gt;Middle School Boys Basketball Pictures &lt;br /&gt;Middle School Girls Basketball Pictures &lt;br /&gt;Elementary and Middle School Girls Cheerleading Pictures&lt;br /&gt;2:15pm School-wide Pep Rally (Bring your posters)&lt;br /&gt;4:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Game Against Virginia Academy (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Game Against Virginia Academy (HOME)&lt;br /&gt;6:30pm Women's Alumni and Faculty Game&lt;br /&gt;Men's Alumni and Faculty Game&lt;br /&gt;7:30pm Alumni Dinner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*Games are subject to the amount of players who show up. Even if you did not play on an official team in school, you can still compete in this. If any parents are interested, please call me at 540-303-0139.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward flag football registration is going on right now. We will have a table in the church foyer on Sunday with information. I think both the church and school receptionist have forms for you to register with. You can also go on line at http://clubs.bluesombrero.com/Default.aspx?alias=clubs.bluesombrero.com/cfellowshipc. The league is open to all and to the community 1st grade through 6th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need you to mark March 21-25 down for it is our annual "Missions" Week. We will have a special chapel on the subject presented by the 3rd grade class on Wednesday. Then on Friday we have our Tour of the Countries. Each grade will have their room decorated as a country with inspirational information to go along with it. Passports will be issued so that parents and students can go through customs. It will be a special time to emphasize our "great commitment to the great commission."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;middle school girls soccer and middle school boys flag football practice starts March 14th at 3:30pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am not in the NBA all-star weekend basketball dunk contest. Someone has stolen my trampoline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins will not lose a game this Sunday. There is no need for me to predict a score.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4832152123189526209?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4832152123189526209'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4832152123189526209'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/02/finally-brethren-whatsoever-things-are.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-FEBRUARY 17, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4739985473801338643</id><published>2011-02-07T10:36:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-07T10:37:33.481-05:00</updated><title type='text'>MY FAVORITE SUPER BOWL 45 AD!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HFx-0eXdK8s?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4739985473801338643?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4739985473801338643'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4739985473801338643'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/02/my-favorite-super-bowl-45-ad.html' title='MY FAVORITE SUPER BOWL 45 AD!!!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/HFx-0eXdK8s/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4149758933046237875</id><published>2011-02-04T10:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-04T10:00:31.355-05:00</updated><title type='text'>WILL WE SEE A BETTER PLAY THAN THIS?</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/CAfhJCbGhYw?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4149758933046237875?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4149758933046237875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4149758933046237875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/02/will-we-see-better-play-than-this.html' title='WILL WE SEE A BETTER PLAY THAN THIS?'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/CAfhJCbGhYw/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6108417989536296532</id><published>2011-02-02T12:03:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-02T12:56:05.196-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-FEBRUARY 2, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by Wilt Chamberlain. He said, "Everybody pulls for David, nobody roots for Goliath."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our next basketball games are this Friday. We will host Hearts Home School. The middle school girls will play at 4:00pm and the middle school boys will play at 5pm. Please come support our athletes and the Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;individual and team pictures will be February 18th at 1pm. This is a change from February 4th. Also at this time, the middle school girls volleyball team will need to have their pictures retaken as the photograph company had trouble with the first ones. Please make note of this and bring the appropriate uniforms. If you have turned them back to me, I will have them for you on that day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;February 18th will be our &lt;strong&gt;Catamount Comeback&lt;/strong&gt;. We are asking all our 12th grade graduates, our 8th grade graduates and anyone who attended high school at our school to &lt;strong&gt;comeback&lt;/strong&gt; on this night. It will be a great time watching our middle school teams play plus there will be food and an alumni basketball game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;for that special night the schedule is as follows:&lt;br /&gt;1:00pm Cheerleading, Basketball and Volleyball Pictures&lt;br /&gt;2:oopm School Wide Pep Rally (Gym)&lt;br /&gt;4:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Game Against Virginia Academy.&lt;br /&gt;5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Game Against Virginia Academy.&lt;br /&gt;6:00pm Alumni Basketball Game&lt;br /&gt;7:30pm Alumni Dinner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our Upward Basketball League is in need of referees and prayer partners. For the referees, the games are on Saturday from 8:00-2:00pm. Games start on the hour and training is provided. For prayer partners, our goal is to have 100 people interceding for our players and coaches. God is doing a work with these young people and we would like you to come along side of us and lift us in prayer. If interested in these areas please email me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the groundhog did not see his shadow this morning. This supposedly means that it is in early spring. I hope so. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;middle school girls soccer and middle school boys flag football sign-ups are going on now. Please have your child let me know if he/she will be playing. The season begins mid-March.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would like to announce Mr. Ben Sizemore as the head coach of our middle school flag football team. He will be assisted by Kevin King. I am pleased to have these two men on our coaching staff. Both bring experience and knowledge to our sidelines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this is Super Bowl week. I am finding it difficult that my Redskins are not playing in the big game once again. I want a quick turn around. I also have more Steeler fans than Raven fans. That is interesting to me. I am going for Randle El, Shaun Suisham and Ryam Clark this Sunday. I have Steelers winning 28-24.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6108417989536296532?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6108417989536296532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6108417989536296532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/02/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-FEBRUARY 2, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7722766553974228620</id><published>2011-01-31T15:07:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-31T15:08:27.021-05:00</updated><title type='text'>CATAMOUNT SPIRIT WEEK-FEBRUARY 14-18, 2011</title><content type='html'>February 14 Monday Multiplicity Day (Think Twin day but the number is unlimited)&lt;br /&gt;February 15 Tuesday Crazy Hair Day and Mission T-Shirt Day&lt;br /&gt;February 16 Wednesday Chapel Day&lt;br /&gt;February 17 Thursday Favorite Team Jersey Day&lt;br /&gt;February 18 Friday Blue and Gold Day&lt;br /&gt;*Pep Rally on Friday.

I had a great relationship with him.  Even though as his point guard I would make mistakes during the game, that connection did not change.  Did he yell and instruct me on how to do better?  Yes, he did.  Did he stay on me until I improved?  Yes, he did.  However, I knew that he cared and wanted to challenge me to be the best I could possibly be.  After the games, I looked forward to the trips home as we would talk school, skills and strategies.  Despite how bad I played I knew that he had my best interest in his mind.  His leadership in my life taught me about the love of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We serve an incredible loving God! He is mighty, compassionate and forgiving. No matter how many times we fail, He still shows us mercy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout all of life's craziness, it's sometimes easy to forget just how much He cares. We tend to get bogged down by our problems and mistakes. Yet He's right beside us throughout everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although we may cause Him to be disappointed at times, He's never ashamed of us. He loves us unconditionally. What kind of God can take in a repeat offender? We've sinned and continue to sin from time to time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our God is the one who can take in a repeat offender.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As this verse says, He is magnificent throughout the earth. God wants a relationship with you regardless of your past, present and future mistakes. This is what makes Him such an awesome God! We aren't worthy, yet He still shows us His unconditional love. So lift your head up high. You are on His team.  He is your life coach.  He is always there for you.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3488706542465133271?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3488706542465133271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3488706542465133271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/01/close-to-coach.html' title='CLOSE TO THE COACH'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1242971935754292198</id><published>2011-01-31T09:05:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-31T09:05:49.632-05:00</updated><title type='text'>DRIBBLE WITH DIRECTION</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/DPBSnXe7auQ?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1242971935754292198?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1242971935754292198'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1242971935754292198'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/01/dribble-with-direction.html' title='DRIBBLE WITH DIRECTION'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/DPBSnXe7auQ/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6941094990886384824</id><published>2011-01-19T09:01:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-19T11:07:58.453-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 19, 2011</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS." Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Joe Gibbs. He said, "Failures are expected by losers, ignored by winners."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I personally and professionally enjoyed the time off for Christmas and this past 4 day weekend. Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is to take a nap. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;rest and relaxation reinvigorate the soul to succeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Catamounts will be in action Thursday against FHS. They will play on the campus of GMU. Please check the sports schedule (www.thepangleangle.blogspot.com) for directions and location.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the sound panels in the gym are finished. They look sharp and provide an excellent look to the walls and aide in the function of the game introductions and music. Thanks to the CFC Facility Crew for making it happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;beginning next week outside my office there will be a boys flag football and girls soccer sign up sheet. Please encourage your son/daughter to sign up. I am looking for great results from these teams. 5th-8th grade students are eligible. More details about these teams to follow in the upcoming weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need 100 prayer warriors for the Upward Basketball season. Games start this weekend and practices have been going on for two weeks. A prayer warrior is one that lifts our players to God on a regular basis that they will come to know Jesus and Grow in Jesus. A prayer warrior lifts up our directors, coaches and referees that they would be in good health and that they would be used of God in the training of these young lives. We have close to 300 players and 30 teams this year. To God be the Glory! Please respond to me if you would like to commit to this important task.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am consistently and constantly made aware by God of the various witnessing opportunities through athletics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my weekend football pics are Steelers and the Packers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a congratulations to Redskins' linebacker Brian Orakpo for making his second straight playoff appearance. Just so you know, if he calls and ask me to accompany him to Hawaii as a spiritual mentor I will dutifully say "Yes".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-6941094990886384824?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6941094990886384824'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/6941094990886384824'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/01/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-january_19.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-JANUARY 19, 2011'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1418389338951823546</id><published>2011-01-08T19:36:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-08T19:37:14.343-05:00</updated><title type='text'>SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA GO BACKWARD TO GO FORWARD</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="640" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EytV67B5ueQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EytV67B5ueQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1418389338951823546?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1418389338951823546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1418389338951823546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2011/01/sometimes-you-gotta-go-backward-to-go.html' title='SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA GO BACKWARD TO GO FORWARD'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4240016951105296931</id><published>2010-12-21T13:45:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2010-12-21T13:45:46.316-05:00</updated><title type='text'>HOW DO YOU LIKE THIS PLAY DR.

if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from C.W. Ceran. He said that "Genius is the ability to reduce the complicated to the simple."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you missed the basketball games last night, you missed 2 exciting competitions. The middle school boys and girls defeated Trinity Meadowview. It was the boys first win of the year and they held on to the lead late in the fourth quarter. Our team continued it's streak of making at least one 3 pointer in the game. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our girls dominated with their defense in their win. The win brought the girls record to 3-3 on the year. All scores and future games can be found on the athletic website at www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;adding to the environment was our elementary and middle school cheerleaders. They did great for their first game. "Big Blue" the Catamount also made an appearance to liven up the crowd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a special thank you is to our parents for providing food and drinks to our players. Sometimes you do this as planned but other times you see a need and improvise. I know our players appreciate it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;all of our teams will return to game action on January 4. We host CCA. Please help cheer the Catamounts on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you are in middle school, I need to know your commitment to the Spring Mission Trip by Friday. Please go to this link to find out more. &lt;br /&gt;http://web.memberclicks.com/mc/community/eventdetails.do?eventId=296291&amp;orgId=cfc&amp;recurringId=0&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the students are getting ready for their Christmas performance this Thursday night. It starts at 7:00 and will be in room 700. I have seen the practices for this and if you come you will be blessed by the message it contains.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Mrs. Taterway's class reminded us this morning of the meaning and miracle of Christmas. I am always amazed at the talent that God has given our students. It is so nice to see them taking their talents and testifying the truth of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins are still my team. Despite their record and mistakes, I stand by them fully. It is Dallas week and as difficult as the year has been, we can go for the sweep of them on Sunday. I believe we will win the game 28-21. I always predict the score at the end of my blog. I never get it right but it is therapy for me. Keep hope alive!  I was sorry to see Hunter Smith released.  Great guy and one that speaks up for Jesus.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3985804452556267971?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3985804452556267971'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3985804452556267971'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/12/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_15.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 15, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-49297960488936833</id><published>2010-12-10T09:23:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2010-12-10T09:25:06.872-05:00</updated><title type='text'>YOUTH ON THE RISE!</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/duMX529k71U?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/duMX529k71U?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-49297960488936833?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/49297960488936833'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/49297960488936833'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/12/youth-on-rise.html' title='YOUTH ON THE RISE!'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-4129046753041872594</id><published>2010-12-08T19:38:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-12-08T20:11:48.503-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THETOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 8, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from Bobby Bowden. He said, "Don't go to the grave with life unused."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am excited for our middle school girls team in their win over Calvary Road Christian School this past Tuesday night. Ashleigh Cayton had 10 points and Rebekah Dinelli had 10 rebounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school boys continue to fight hard each game. They lost a tough one to CRCS. Sam Rexroad had 13 points and 14 rebounds. Devin Greenhow continued to lead the Catamounts from three point territory as he drained a long one in the third quarter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am pleased with our fan support for the home basketball games. Attendance is up from the past seasons and I want to thank you for coming and cheering. Mrs. Taterway needs all the help she can get on the bleachers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the cheer leading uniforms came in this week and will be handed out at practice Thursday night. They will have one more practice and will start cheering soon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have a home game tomorrow night against Mannassas Christian School. Girls play at 4:00PM and boys play at 5:00PM. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;in reference to the mission trip to Nicaragua, we need to know a commitment for who is going by this Friday. We will be going in March and the cost is $1500.00 per person. Financial assistance is available although each person will have to pay some. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.&lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;the mission team will be helping the church, the orphanage and the Christian Schools there. We will be doing various activities and teaching "Conversational English."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my favorite Christmas special is still &lt;em&gt;A Charlie Brown Christmas&lt;/em&gt;. I watch it every year and I enjoy it more the more I see it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins repeatedly make the news but not in the way I want them to. While some players get headlines for their lack of good effort and play, there are some good character men on the team. Reed Doughty and Lorenzo Alexander are two that stand out to me. They play with everything they have. I believe we win at home this week over the Buccaneers. I predict the score will be 14-12 us.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-4129046753041872594?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4129046753041872594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/4129046753041872594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/12/thetop-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THETOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 8, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-7613889052576544218</id><published>2010-12-01T18:11:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-12-01T18:13:34.439-05:00</updated><title type='text'>WHAT IF THIS HAPPENED AT DULLES TOWN CENTER THIS CHRISTMAS?</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NY4bUP48RE8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NY4bUP48RE8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-7613889052576544218?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7613889052576544218'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/7613889052576544218'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/12/what-if-this-happened-at-dulles-town.html' title='WHAT IF THIS HAPPENED AT DULLES TOWN CENTER THIS CHRISTMAS?'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-3273276650484671632</id><published>2010-12-01T08:39:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2010-12-01T18:16:37.411-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 1, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from John Wooden. He said, "Make sure that team members know they are working with you, not for you."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Catamounts played hard last night. Although both teams suffered lopsided losses, they never quit. As the athletic director, I see true success when Christ-like character is seen on the court and off. One of the traits Jesus shows to us is persistence. I saw some of that with our girls and boys last night. May it continue through the season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I was excited to see more fans at the game last night. Your presence is an encouragement to our players. You encourage them without even saying a word. It is nice, however to use your vocal power to affirm them from the stands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it would be great to create a climate of cheering and confirmation as soon as you walk in the gym. Our cheerleaders will be practicing this week and their uniforms are on the way! This will help with this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you need lessons on how to cheer or what to say at the games, Mrs. Leonhardt has plenty to share! She was cheering and coaching from the score table last night. Awesome school pride.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Christmas stockings are coming into my office. What a joy in the children's faces as they drop them off to me. Let us teach them and model for them that giving is an extension of God's love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if you follow this blog regularly, you know I took off from writing last week. I had a happy thanksgiving and I hope you did too. What helped mine was the Cowboys lost to the Saints! Roy Williams has to hold on to the football if you are a Dallas fan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.&lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;Bret Favre did my Redskins in with a first-down scramble. How does someone in their forties with bad ankles do that to my team? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it is December and time for me to wear my Christmas ties. I am excited. By the way, the best time to buy a Christmas tie is after Christmas. I inserted this comment to break up my football ramblings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins will travel to New York this week and ...win! We beat Eli and his team 16-14.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-3273276650484671632?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3273276650484671632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/3273276650484671632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/12/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-DECEMBER 1, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-9147389783022105257</id><published>2010-11-17T11:16:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2010-11-17T12:44:05.584-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 17, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Pat Riley. He said, "Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a special thank you goes to all who attended, supported, donated and played in the first annual Dig for Nicaragua. The night featured memorable moments that the students and families will be re-living for the years to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;through the Silent Auction, Concessions and the Offering Box, we were able to bring in over $1,000.oo for the Middle School Trip. Praise the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our volleyball coaches and team stepped up and out with this project. What a joy to see their teamwork and friendships off the court in this endeavor. I believe they have started something that will continue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it was quite a statement with the audience wearing the red missions shirt. I recently got some more sizes in and they are available for purchase.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our first basketball games are approaching. We open the season November 30th against Fairfax Home School. The game will be at home with the action starting at 4:00pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the schedule as well as the spirit wear can be seen at www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Honor Roll Chapel was today. It is so good to see so many parents participating in their kid's success. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;technology and social media are helping keep people informed as to what is happening on our campus. In case you did not know, County Christian School, has a Facebook page. Stories, quick facts and pictures are posted regularly. I encourage you to look it up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins' game against the Eagles was tough to watch. Right in the middle of it, I get a text from Dr. Luckette asking me if I was still a fan. I reminded him that a fan stays with his team despite the record or outcome. A fanatic does not. This coming week we play the Titans. I believe we will win the game 24-21.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 10, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is from Joe Paterno. He said, "The will to win is important, but the will to prepare is vital."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we had a good Veteran's Day program at the school today. Time was given for the fathers of our country, the flag of our country, the foundations of our country and the freedom of our country. A special thank you to the ones who have fought so hard to preserve and protect our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;true freedom is never free. Sacrifice is better showed than spoken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our first annual Dig for Nicaragua will be held on November 12th. The starting time is 6:00pm. This night will feature our middle school girls volleyball team against the middle school boys and the CCS faculty. There will be door prizes, a silent auction, a concession stand and fun for all! Wear your Red mission shirts. All the proceeds will go to the mission trip to Nicaragua. Free homework passes will be given to all students in attendance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;last week our students received a $10 gift card to our new school spirit store. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org to view all the new items available to show your school pride. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we are partnering with CFC in their Gifts that Give Hope Program. Stockings for Christmas are being filled by our classes. If you would like to help and give, please contact my office or your child's homeroom teacher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;we will do a canned food drive in the spring for the Loudoun Interfaith Alliance. They have expressed to me that that is a great time to give as donations are usually small at that time of year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our Upward Basketball league is continuing to take registrations. Practices are on Thursday nights and games are on Saturday mornings. It is designed for 1st-6th graders. This is for our students at CCS as well as an open outreach to our community.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I need you to pray for an Upward Flag Football director. We want to add this league to our spring schedule to reach more boys and girls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the good news is that the Redskins did not lose this past weekend. We were off and had a bye. That means we have two weeks to prepare for the Eagles. I say we win on National Television Monday night. My predicted score is the Redskins 21...Eagles 17.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5759831950204776331?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5759831950204776331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5759831950204776331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_10.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 10, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5716411245538975740</id><published>2010-11-10T09:05:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2010-11-10T09:05:39.658-05:00</updated><title type='text'>TRICK OR TOUCHDOWN?</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0UIdI8khMkw?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0UIdI8khMkw?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5716411245538975740?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5716411245538975740'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5716411245538975740'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/11/trick-or-touchdown.html' title='TRICK OR TOUCHDOWN?'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5836011872241476290</id><published>2010-11-03T11:13:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2010-11-03T12:01:39.817-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 3, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from George Allen.  He said, “People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I would like to announce that John Pohl and Joe Walters have been hired as our middle school basketball coaches.  Both coaches bring experience and their Christian testimony to their teams.  Practice started yesterday and we had a total of 18 players.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the best way to know when the Catamounts are playing is to check the athletic website.  Games do change, so please check the schedule frequently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the atheltic website (www.ccsathletics.org)has a school store now.  You can go to this and order anything from shirts to sweatshirts to sport bags.  Your child on Friday will be recieving a 10.00 gift card toward any purchase.  Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the middle school girls volleyball team will be hosting Dig for Nicaragua on November 12.  The event will start at 6:00pm and will feature a silent auction and double header action.  The girls will play the faculty and the middle school boys.  All proceeds of this event will go to supporting our students on their mission trip to Nicaragua.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our "Nickels for Nicaragua" offering program started this week.  The "Pig" is located at door 600 and is in need of your spare coins and change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think  &lt;/strong&gt;this is the last Saturday for the Fall Upward Soccer Season.  We will have games in the morning and then at 1:00pm we will gather in the CFC Sanctuary for the Awards Ceremony.  Joseph Young will be the special entertainment for the afternoon.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;elementary and middle school cheerleading will have their first practice tomorrow at 3:30pm.  They will meet in room 129.  I am looking forward to having themm cheer at all of our home basketball games this winter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Basketball evaluations will take place on November 4th, 11th and 18th.  The league still has room and is open for 1st-6th graders.  Email me for further information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins are guaranteed not to lose this weekend.  If you are keeping up with the season you know that Sunday is their bye week.  We are 4-4 and righ in the middle of playoff contention.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5836011872241476290?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5836011872241476290'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5836011872241476290'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/11/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-NOVEMBER 3, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-5563200242677183276</id><published>2010-11-03T11:12:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2010-11-03T11:12:50.371-04:00</updated><title type='text'>HOW'S YOUR DRIVING?</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RHX1LYQI0cw?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RHX1LYQI0cw?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-5563200242677183276?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5563200242677183276'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/5563200242677183276'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/11/hows-your-driving.html' title='HOW&apos;S YOUR DRIVING?'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1481507670524998200</id><published>2010-10-27T21:28:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2010-10-27T21:51:46.679-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 27, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.&lt;strong&gt; I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by Aristotle. He said, "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;a congratulations goes to the Middle School Girls Volleyball Team. This week they participated in the NVIAC Tournament and completed their season. With a young team and untapped ability they showed great improvement through the course of this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I have found it difficult in finding the right coaches for the right teams. I am thankful for our volleyball coaches for their third consecutive year of service together. Head Coach Dennis Roos and Assistant Coaches Chantell Burchette, Lauren Jones and Missy Baker have kept the consistency of the program going!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;this year, the volleyball team is wanting to do something special with their skills and abilities. They will be hosting a benefit game against the middle school boys and the CCS faculty. This will take place on November 12 at 6:00pm. All proceeds will go to the middle school mission trip to Nicaragua.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am enjoying the "Leadership Lunch" with the students. Each week, I eat with three of our students and I have the privilege of getting to know them better. God has blessed us with unique and talented kids. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;as a reminder school is closed this Friday and Monday. I hope our families use this time to draw closer to each other by making memories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to remind our middle school students that they are required to have 30 "Faith in Action" hours. I was able to speak to them this week about this. I look forward to seeing what doors of opportunity come open to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our basketball and cheer leading season starts this coming week. Tuesday, November 2nd will be the first basketball practice and November 4th will be the first cheer leading practice. A detailed schedule will be released on Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Upward Soccer Award Ceremony is November 6 at 1:00pm in the Worship Center. I invite you to celebrate with us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins were able to go to Chicago and get an ugly win. But a win is a win. They will follow that victory with one in Detroit this Sunday. We win the game 35-10.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1481507670524998200?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1481507670524998200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1481507670524998200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/10/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-october_27.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 27, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-6708246643882219147</id><published>2010-10-20T11:45:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2010-10-20T18:05:34.603-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 20, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week comes from George Washington Carver.  He said, "When you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I appreciate all the prayers for my dad.  He got released from the hospital this morning and he continues to recover from his surgery.  One of the greatest attributes my dad has in his life is his optimistic perspective.  He is a thumbs up person rather than a thumbs down person.  May I follow his example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the middle school girls volleyball team has finished their regular season.  This is a growth year for our players as we only have one 8th grader playing.  I look forward to having them all back next year.  You build a program through commitment and consistency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;they will be in action next week in the NVIAC tournament.  We will host it this year.  For the times and the opponents of the games please check with www.ccsathletics.org or www.nviac.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;to promote achool spirit we will have a Blue and Gold day.  Students can only dress in their school colors or wear their regular uniforms.  Catamount shirts are available through the athletic office for $10.00 each.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the volleyball team is planning and preparing a special game against the faculty.  This will occur in the month of November.  The proceeds of this game will go to the school's yearly mission trip to Nicaragua.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;it is getting close to basketball and cheerleading season.  This will start the first week of November.  There will be sign ups for girls and boys basketball right outside my office.  Please do this by Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the basketball practice schedule will be as follows...&lt;br /&gt;3:30-5:00pm Middle School Boys Basketball Practice&lt;br /&gt;3:30-5:00pm Middle School Girls Baketball Study Hall&lt;br /&gt;3:30-5:00pm Middle School Girls Basketball Practice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the practice days will be Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins are 3-3.  I was really hoping McNabb would have led us on the scoring drive in the last two minutes.  We had opportunity.  My prediction for this week is we will win against Chicago.  The score will be 17-10.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 6, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by an unknown author. He said, "There is nothing wrong with making mistakes. Just don't respond with encores."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school girls volleyball team is showing signs of improvement. We are a young team that is learning the game and hopefully going to stay together for next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;basketball and cheer leading practices will start the first week of November. The updated schedule is at www.ccsathletics.org.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;mission t-shirts are available. A new shipment has come in. Please order through the home room teacher or email me. They are $15.00 and the money helps our middle school mission trip to Nicaragua.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there are no Upward soccer games this Saturday due to Columbus day weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;fall sport pictures (volleyball) for the school will be October 12. Order forms will be sent home with the team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward basketball registration starts October 17. It is for 1st-6th grade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department still needs volunteers on game day. Scoreboard operators, set-up and clean-up crew, greeters, and photographers are a few open opportunities. This not only will help our school but can serve as your parent volunteer hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Donovan McNabb went back to Philadelphia successfully. He got the Redskins a big win. Now I am hoping Mr. Haynesworth continues his good play on the line against Green Bay. My prediction is Redskins win 24-21 over the Packers! Like I ever pick against my team.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-9071621811331267128?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9071621811331267128'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/9071621811331267128'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/10/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on-october.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-OCTOBER 6, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-1325730470654885117</id><published>2010-09-22T22:24:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2010-09-22T22:52:02.422-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 22, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by Ralph Waldo Emerson.  He said, "Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;today was See You At The Pole.  I was so proud of our students as they prayerfully surrounded the American and Christian flags.  Each student was given a wristband with the "Reveal" theme on it.  The school interceded for God to reveal Himself to our campus, our churches, our community and our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;had my first leadership lunch with our students.  It was great hearing them share their stories and suggestions.  I will look forward to these every Wednesday.  A faculty that builds relationships with the students will see benefits that go far beyond the grading scale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we depart for the middle school retreat tomorrow and I have already been warned I am a target in paint ball.  With the bullets speeding past my head I am sure thoughts of education will be in my head.  Just not sure if my training in Alegebra will help me allude the sting of getting hit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am surprised and excited about the interest for elementary and middle school cheerleading.  We had sign-ups last week and we will have a parent information meeting September 30th.  It will be from 3:30-4:30pm and be held in Room 705.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school girls volleyball team is 2-2 on the season.  We have 3 games next week.  Please go to our sports website www.ccsathletics.org to keep up on their success.  I hope to see you at the games.  The girls try so hard!  It encourages them when they see that the bleachers are not empty or just filled with the other team's fans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the "Back to School Night" was a special event.  In case you missed it, the highlight of the evening was the dedication of our new computer lab.  It will be a place where Truth is Taught through Technology.  Awesome.  Simply Awesome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward basketball registration starts October 17th.  At that time you will be able to register online, at the church or at the school.  The age range is 1st-6th grade.  The cost is $85.00.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the vision of our Upward Sports program is to have flag football in the spring.  This would be a great addition to our athletic department and our campus.  I am currently putting the task force together and looking for volunteers.  Please contact me at tpangle@countychristianschool.org&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.  &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my Redskins have had two heart stopping games.  We should get some breathing room this week as we beat the Rams 28-7.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-1325730470654885117?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1325730470654885117'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/1325730470654885117'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/09/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_22.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 22, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-230340630607705259</id><published>2010-09-17T20:35:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2010-09-17T21:07:23.736-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 15, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by Chuck Noll. He said, "Champions are champions not because they do anything extraordinary but because they do the ordinary things better than anyone else."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the middle school girls had three matches this week. It was a busy start of the season for them. We won 2 and lost one. The young team is improving each time they step out on the court. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I encourage Catamount Country to show your support for the team this coming Monday (20th) at 4:30pm. Be Early and Be Enthusiastic as they play against Virginia Academy at home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the athletic department is in need of volunteers and helpers. We need greeters for the games, scoreboard operators, scorekeepers, and clean up assistance. Please contact my office if you are interested. This can serve as your volunteer hours for the school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Upward Basketball registration will begin October 17th. Please look for more details to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we had a good number of sign-ups for elementary and middle school cheer leading. We will be in contact with you about the next steps. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;Back to School Night is Tuesday. The new County Christian School Spirit Shirts are in and will be on sale. The shirts are $10.00 and available in adult and children's sizes. The athletic department will have a table in the foyer. Go Catamounts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we are blessed to have 30 teams in our Upward soccer league. Games have started and the task force is working hard to make the season a success. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;there is a lot of excitement and activity in our school right now. I am glad to be a part of it. Please check the school and sport websites often. I do not want you to miss anything due to miscommunication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if there is a team in the NFL that I like the Redskins to beat the most, it is the Dallas Cowboys. Until Sunday the blue and grey had defeated the burgundy and gold 19 out of the past 25 games. I say we were due a win!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-230340630607705259?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/230340630607705259'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/230340630607705259'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/09/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_17.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 15, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-2802962500275238890</id><published>2010-09-10T22:59:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2010-09-10T23:00:12.639-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THIS IS WAY YOU PLAY TO THE FINAL WHISTLE...</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8jNwscpjutg?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8jNwscpjutg?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-2802962500275238890?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2802962500275238890'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/2802962500275238890'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/09/this-is-way-you-play-to-final-whistle.html' title='THIS IS WAY YOU PLAY TO THE FINAL WHISTLE...'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057222749194795096.post-8786758029384048492</id><published>2010-09-08T21:52:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2010-09-08T22:16:36.442-04:00</updated><title type='text'>THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 8, 2010</title><content type='html'>"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, &lt;strong&gt;THINK ON THESE THINGS." &lt;/strong&gt;Phil. 4:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;my quote of the week is by Booker T. Washington. He said, "If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I am looking forward to our first Blue and Gold Day on Friday. I invite you to join us for a time of fun and fellowship at our "Dinner on the Lawn" from 5:30-7:30pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our middle school volleyball team will be in action for 3 games next week. Please go to www.ccsathletics.org. I am looking forward to the start of our season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;our first Upward soccer games will take place this Saturday. As you know it is September 11. A special devotion will be given at halftime as we think about this memorable day in our country's history. It is known as Patriots Day and it would be great to see the Red, White and Blue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;if your boy is interested in fall soccer for the school team, I need to know by Friday. The sign up sheet will be on my office door starting Thursday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;we have opportunity for cross-country for our middle schools. There will be a sign-up for this as well. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I want to remind you that fifth graders are eligible for middle school sports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;I will blog on Wednesdays and post the Sports Schedule for the week on Fridays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the new mission shirts for T-shirt Tuesday are available for purchase at the front desk for $15.00.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;I think &lt;/strong&gt;the Redskins win 24-21 this Sunday night against the Cowboys.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4057222749194795096-8786758029384048492?l=thepangleangle.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8786758029384048492'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4057222749194795096/posts/default/8786758029384048492'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepangleangle.blogspot.com/2010/09/top-ten-things-i-am-thinking-on_08.html' title='THE TOP TEN THINGS I AM THINKING ON-SEPTEMBER 8, 2010'/><author><name>Tony Pangle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01960251319372485219</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='22' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Mz8tOIWiQ0w/TrwYavZGhxI/AAAAAAAAAJA/1wTyiO3j6bo/s220/catamount%2B%25283%2529.jpg'/></author></entry></feed>
