 CROSS
Since the player has both hands spread apart on the stick it is very difficult to cross check an opponent below the waist as the player would have to bend over or be on the ice to crosscheck a person in this area.
If the stick contacts a vulnerable area on the body (area with minimal or no protection) then there is a greater chance of a penalty being assessed than if a cross check hits a player in the shoulder pad.
The force of the crosscheck is easy to determine because if the force is severe then you are likely to see the head snap in the opposite direction of the crosscheck and sometimes the sound of the stick contacting the helmet can reflect on the severity of the crosscheck.

 Rose Cross Ritual at Mountain Temple
Bring the stick to the centre of the NE cross and return to the SW, incense stick down, and pausing in the centre of the room to link up with the cross beneath you.
As you arrive at the SE again, bring the point of the stick again to the centre of the Cross, then move with arm outstretched to SW corner.
While the banishing ritual is negative or purgative, designed to clear out impurities, the Rose Cross ritual is positive or invocatory, designed to draw in a clean, formless light -- giving the magician a blank astral slate on which to work, so to speak.

 Chapter 13 - Puzzles Using Hexagonal or Rhombic Sticks
Hexagonal sticks are easily made by first ripping planed boards into sticks of rhombic cross-section with the saw tilted 30 degrees and then making two more cuts.
However, this is easily corrected by joining one stick-dowel pair to make an elbow piece and another pair to make a cross piece.
All of the holes are spaced equally apart, are at the same 70½-degree angle to the axis of the stick, and are arranged in helical progression.

One long and slightly flattened stick is generally grasped in the middle and held flat.
The other stick, more rounded and held towards the end, is brought sharply and cleanly on to the first to make a percussive rhythm.
These have a similar function to clapsticks - at times they may be shaken to provide a continuous rattle, as well as being beaten together.

 Patent 4276795: Fish stick cutting method and apparatus
Whereas the thickness of the fish sticks is determined by the height of the table, the length and width thereof are determined by the cross section of the frozen slabs.
To achieve the transfer of the fish sticks 172a, 172b onto the wire mesh belt 188 of the conveyor assembly 186, upper and lower pusher units 202a, 202b are employed.
However, the various fish sticks 172a and 172b, after they have fallen into the collection unit 182 and rest respectively in the angled troughs 184a, 184b, must be shifted or transferred from the collection unit 182 onto the wire mesh belt 188 of the conveyor assembly 186.

 Pioneering
Diagonal lashing is used to bind poles together that cross each other but do not touch when their ends are lashed in place in a structure.
Tripod lashing takes two main forms; with racked wrapping turns (the rope is woven between the poles) and with plain wrapping turns (the rope is wrapped around the poles without weaving the rope between the poles).
When the lashing is made with racking turns the rope contacts each pole around its entire circumference ; this contact makes the tripod lashing with racking turns the most secure form of tripod lashing: therefore tripod lashing with racking turns should be used when safety is important.

 Spring disconnect mechanism for self centering multiple axis analog control stick - Patent 4489304
Typically complex displacement of the control stick is resolved into components along two orthogonal axes corresponding to the axes of rotation of the input shafts of two orthogonally disposed potentiometers and electrical signals proportional to this displacement are generated across the terminals of the potentiometers.
Stick shaft 16 is mounted to ball 15 and projecting inwardly beyond ball 15 is cross head 94.
With this arrangement, and springs 83 and 93 connected to the appropriate spring arms, stick shaft 16 is centered or located in the neutral position unless and until a lateral force is applied to the stick.

 Ape Escape Walkthrough - IGN FAQs
Rotate the stick in a circular motion and you can perform a 360 spin move that is useful for fending off multiple enemies at once.
If you just barely push the stick, you'll get a slight tiptoe from Spike (which is useful for traversing terrain where there isn't much room for error), while a full tilt of the stick will produce a full- fledged sprint.
This time, however, you'll want to cross over to the pipe on the opposite side of the room, where another ape is hanging around.

 Don't Give Your Hurricane Donations to the Red Cross
But what the media fails consistently to remember in their promotion of the organization is that the American Red Cross have been caught time and time again withholding money in the wake of horrible disasters that require immediate release of funds.

 Göttinger Predigten im Internet
The new life in Christ looks like a cross – like the freedom to stick with this, living out all the things He tells us, by giving our lives away in service to others and in joyous harmony with our Master.
Because we think that freedom means no authorities other than our own self-serving consciences, we stumble foolishly into heartaches – while God weeps over His stupid broken creatures that flutter and flail in the very net of sin in which we have become ensnared.
We often forget those amazing moments when Christ shows that He is living in a teenage daughter or son.

 15992 part 1
The expression 'I put my criss-cross on it,* used by the peasantry, is from this custom, so that the owner, being unable to readf, could always claim his own stick or spade by its marks.
Gamekeepers with us are in the habit of cutting notches on a stick to keep account of the number of game lolled during a shooting excursion, different notches being made for different kinds of game.
The number and great variety, however, of the systematic markings lead to the conclusion that in the majority of cases they were not the result of accident or chance, but of intentional workmanship, the uses of which certainly furnish food for conjecture, and must indicate the habits and propensities of the long-past Cave-folk.

2) Next, make a cross with the sticks, attaching one of the sticks (which we'll call the bow stick) 8-3/8" from the top of other stick (which we'll refer to as the spine stick) by lashing the sticks together with string, wrapping tightly.
Then, carefully bend the bow stick back until the distance between the center of the bow stick and the bow string measures 8-3/8".
Wrap up this step by attaching the loose end of the string to the opposite end of the bow stick.

 Whiteleaf Cross (Hill Figure) The Modern Antiquarian Whiteleaf Cross (Hill Figure)
'Stock' could be interpreted as alluding to something stick-like (which rather ties in with the hypothesis that the cross is actually a christianised phallic symbol).
One of the most intriguing stories about the cross (hinted at but not explained on the Bucks CC website) is that the present day cross shape was originally a large phallic shape.
JandC Bord say that Whiteleaf Cross has not been dated, but that a local boundary mark called 'Wayland's Stock' was mentioned in a charter of 903AD, and perhaps they're one and the same.
