YANKEES WIN GAME 1, COLONIALS FALL

Well it looked like the Texas Rangers were going to win game 1 of the AL Championship Series when they jumped out to a 5-0 lead through 6 innings before the Yankees rallied for 6-5 win. The Yanks got 1 run in the 7th inning before getting 5 more in the top of the 8th inning and stunning the Texas crowd taking game 1 of the series. The NL series gets underway tonight. The Colonial Heights Colonials football team lost to Matoaca 28-18 last night on homecoming, there were a couple of big plays in the game by Matoaca which hurt the Colonials. The Virginia Cavalier football team will be back at home tonight at 6pm when they face the North Carolina Tar Heels, the Tar Heels have not won since 1981 in Charlottesville. Also tonight the Nascar Sprint Cup Series will be in action the Charlotte Motor Speedway. MICKEY

Apples, They Zap Cholesterol
Thanks to two key components, pectin (a type of fiber) and polyphenols (powerful antioxidants), apples can take a bite out of blood cholesterol levels and prevent the oxidation of LDL ("bad") cholesterol — the chemical process that turns it into artery-clogging plaque. The trick to maximizing the benefit: Don't toss the peel; apple skin has two to six times the antioxidant compounds as the flesh.
