RENEGADES BACK AT HOME TONIGHT, VIRGINIA BASEBALL TEAM WINS AGAIN



The Richmond Renegades are back at home tonight for the 1st time in about 3 weeks when the Twin City Cyclones make an appearance at the Richmond Coliseum, the Gades will also be home on Saturday night as well against the Fayetteville FireAntz. The Virginia baseball team dismantled Coppin State yesterday 27-1 to improve to 6-0 on the season, the Cavs will began a three game series this afternoon with Siena. Well my arm is feeling much better this morning because I didn't have to throw again yesterday, it looks like it is going to be about 10 degrees warmer today which my arm will appreciate. The last two days at baseball practice have been pretty cold. Don't forget we have a home baseball scrimmage tomorrow at 2pm against Trinity. The Nascar Sprint Cup & Nationwide Series will be in Las Vegas this weekend. I sure am glad it's Friday. MICKEY

Great effort springs naturally from a great attitude.

Health Tip: Muscle Injury?
Many minor overuse injuries to muscles and tendons can be treated at home.

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons suggests the RICE method, which includes:

* Resting the injured area by avoiding exercise, sports or activities that may aggravate the injury until the pain subsides.
* Icing the area with an ice pack (protecting the skin) several times a day for about 20 minutes per session.
* Compressing the area by wearing an elastic compression bandage.
* Elevating the area, keeping it above the level of your heart.

NUTRITION TIP
Exchange 20 oz of regular soda for water By now you know that soda pop is not good for you, so why are you still drinking it? Every time you crave an ice cold cola picture swallowing spoonfuls of white sugar. Yikes, talk about a set up for weight gain. Stick with water and kiss those extra calories goodbye.

Serendipity
Good things will come to you in ways you could never anticipate or expect. Yet if you're constantly placing judgments, conditions and restrictions on your life, you'll miss out on most of those good things.

Being open to the abundance of life means being open to the unknown and unexpected. If you hide away from what you do not know, you'll never discover anything new.

The world is constantly changing, and many of those changes can seem frightening. Yet within each and every change there is opportunity.

When the world changes, legions of positive possibilities are born. When the unexpected happens, there is much new value to be created.

Choose to welcome the constant newness that is essential to life. For it brings new ways to more fully express and fulfill your own unique purpose.

In every unexpected turn of events is a pleasant surprise waiting to be discovered. Open yourself to the freshness of each dawning moment, and find those magnificent treasures that have just been born.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD CONSIDER SOME FORM OF HEAT FOR THE GARAGE GYM

i have a little heater in there that will heat me up but not the air but it doesn't take long to get warmed once i get moving so i don't use it for my workouts! i do use it for other work in the garage!
