VIRGINIA POUNDS MIAMI 75-57




The Virginia Cavalier basketball team is now in first place by themselves after pounding Miami last night 75-57 and with the win are 3-0 in the ACC. The Cavs jumped out a quick lead and never trailed in the game and lead most of the game by 10 or more points, the Cavs are off until next Saturday when the travel down to Wake Forest. The VCU Rams also won yesterday as well, the Rams beat Georgia State 82-69. Andrew's basketball team didn't fair as well they fell 25-20 in there opener ruining Coach Lamantia's basketball coaching debut, they will have another shot next week when they return to action 8am at Chester Middle School. I have posted the photos Al too in a link below. The New Orleans Saints beat the Arizona Cardinals yesterday 45-14, the Cardinals actually lead this game 7-0 before the Saints woke up. The Colts slowed down the Ravens last night and came away with a 20-3 win. Today in the NFL playoffs Dallas will be at Minnesota and New York Jets will be at San Diego. I am hoping that Brett Favre will lead Vikings past the Cowboys. It looks like it is going to be a cool and rainy day so it will be a good day to watch some football. MICKEY

The Pendulum Factor: When you deprive yourself to an extreme, you end up craving to an extreme. The pendulum swings from “being extremely good” to “being extremely bad” to compensate. You may have heard this called “yo-yo dieting.” Indulge in moderation. Enjoying the foods you love and the treats you crave once in awhile will help you to crave foods less overall.

Iced Coffee
Coffee reduces your appetite, increases your metabolism, and gives you a shot of antioxidants. A study published in the journal Physiology & Behavior found that the average metabolic rate of people who drink caffeinated coffee is 16 percent higher than that of those who drink decaf. Caffeine stimulates your central nervous system by increasing your heart rate and breathing. Honestly, could there be a more perfect beverage? Plus, frequent mini servings of caffeine (8 ounces of coffee or less) keep you awake, alert, and focused for longer than a single jumbo one would, according to sleep experts. When you quickly drink a large coffee, the caffeine peaks in your bloodstream much sooner than if you spread it out over time. Start your day with an 8 ounce coffee (the "short" size is available by request at Starbucks). Or, ask for a large half caf. Then keep the caffeine lightly flowing with a lunchtime cappuccino (it's got only 75 mg, which is about one quarter of what you'd get in a 16 ounce coffee).

Avoiding the phrase “I don’t have time…”, will soon help you
to realize that you do have the time needed for just about
anything you choose to accomplish in life. -Bo Bennett

Hoos playing a re-schedule game tomorrow vs UNC-W. This blogger will be in attendance. Looks like at trap game, but hopefully Bennett will have them ready the play. They just have to remember to continue to play hard that's why they're winning.
