    “How do you feel about exercising?”

         The local YM-YWCA has a weight-room with lots of weight machines to assist in muscle development. My favorite sport is golf. To prevent injuries while in play, strengthening does help. Putting together a cross-reference of sports and weight training, I found some interesting points. Using only seven ( 7 ) exercises, I can increase muscle growth and excell in this individual sport of golf. Looks like there’s money in it.

         My game of golf can be improved doing sets of bent laterals, dumbbell curls, incline press, lat machine, side laterals, twisting and wrist curls. These same seven basic exercises will enhance the body further for other sports like archery, baseball, bowling, fencing, judo, squash and tennis – to name a few.²

  • Beale Research

    Beale Research has turned up some interesting facts that might pertain to this treasure.

    The word Enigma comes from the Latin aenigma; from Greek ainigma; and from ainissesthai, ainig-, to speak in riddles, from ainos, fable and means puzzling, ambiguous or inexplicable such as a perplexing speech or text or riddle.

    According to Edgar Allen Poe in his short story,”The Gold Bug”, in English, the letter which most frequently occurs is e. Afterward, the succession runs thus: a o i d h n r s t u y c f g l m w b k p q x z.  The letter E predominates so remarkably, that an individual sentence of any length is rarely seen, in which it is not the prevailing character. He also wrote the short poe on Enigma in 1848.

    The lost colony of Roanoke was founded in 1585. The innkeeper of an English settlement in Virginia was a guy called Robert Morris. The United States of America Secretary of State during 1781 was also a Robert Morris. During the American revolution, Robert Morris, Superintendent of United States of America Finances was permitted to conduct profitable, private business ventures while serving the government. It seems no one else could carry on his job. The first United States of America Treasury was a small iron chest (similarly described in the Beale cipher) kept by Robert Morris (innkeeper), George Washington’s Superintendent of Finances. It held all the money that financed the American Revolution. The revolt against England resulted in the signing of the documents of Independence. Governor Morris (1752 – 1816) headed the committee that wrote the final draft of the United States of America Constitution. He had been suspected of sympathies for England at the outbreak of the American Revolution. Decimal coinage was introduced by G. Morris in 1782. President Jefferson introduced dollars and cents in 1832.

    The Constitution (1791) and the Declaration of Independence (1776),of which there are 300 variations, were both signed by Robert Morris of Pennsylvania. The United States of America Bill of Rights was an addition to the United States of America Constitution in 1789 and was later ratified in 1791. Morris later introduced the Erie Railroads.President Jefferson first mentioned Virginia gold deposits in 1782. North Carolina discovered gold in 1830. Virginia is mentioned in the United States Constitution only three times – the same number of ciphers in the Beale treasure. In 1776 Kentucky was a county of Virginia. In 1780, Kentucky was divided into three counties. Virginia is the place of Beale’s treasure concealment in 1817.

    Another Historical Document called the “Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence” of 1775-04-31, Written by the committeemen of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina and published in 1819, shows this document is generally looked at as a compilation of recollections of the committeemen from 1775. When first published, it led some to believe that Jefferson may have been guilty of plagiarism when writing The Declaration of Independence, but it later became clear that he had never heard of it before 1819.
