DON'T FORGET TO SPRING FORWARD TONIGHT, UVA BASEBALL TEAM WINS


Don't forget to set you clocks up an hour before you go to bed tonight, if not you are going to be 1 hour late for everything tomorrow. I wish we had daylight savings time all year, I like having more sunlight everyday. The Virginia baseball team opened ACC play yesterday with a 5-0 win over Florida State, the Cavs and Noles will play game 2 of there series tonight in Tallahassee. The Virginia basketball team didn't fair as well yesterday in the ACC Tournament falling to Duke 57-46. In high school basketball action last night Petersburg lost to I.C. Norcom 55-54 in the AAA basketball championship game. I did make my weekly trip down to Wal-Mart this morning and then over to Hopewell to Dunkin Donuts and yes they were very good. It looks like it is going to be another rainy day here in the Heights. MICKEY

Bananas
Athletes and performers are familiar with the calming effect of bananas—a result of the fruit's high concentration of tryptophan, a building block of serotonin. But their real benefit comes from potassium, an electrolyte that helps prevent the loss of calcium from the body. "Bananas also bolster the nervous system, boost immune function, and help the body metabolize protein," says Bass. "One banana packs a day's worth of potassium, and its carbohydrate content speeds recovery after strenuous exercise."

The human body is the only machine that wears out faster if it is not used.

“Luck is not something you can mention
in the presence of self-made men.”
