VCU HOLDS ON FOR A WIN, TOUGH GAMES FOR THE PACKERS & REDSKINS

The VCU Rams jumped out to a big lead on Tulane and had to hold on for dear life in the 2nd half of the game and came away with a 70-67 over the Green Wave. The Rams are now 7-3 on the season will face UAB on the road Tuesday. The Green Bay Packers will be on the road tonight in New England to face the Patriots without there starting QB Aaron Rodgers so I am not giving them much of a shot to win tonight and with Brady picking apart the Packer defense I have a feeling that is going to be very lopsided game. Meanwhile the Washington Redskins will be on the road at Dallas today to face the Cowboys with Rex Grossman starting at QB for the benched Donovan McNabb, I have pretty bad feeling that Skins are going to get pounded today. Well just think next week at this time Christmas will be over and we will be getting ready to bring in the New Year. MICKEY

Beauty rest is best: Chronic sleep deprivation can induce aging, lack of concentration, and fatigue. Getting enough sleep is essential to maintain healthy hormone function, digestion, and metabolism. Your body replenishes and repairs itself during REM, the deepest cycle of sleep. For most adults 7-9 hours of restorative sleep will help your body function its best. A study from the University of Chicago examined the effect of sleep deprivation and its effect on hormones and metabolism. The subjects who received less than 8 hours of sleep had increased cortisol levels, altered thyroid function, and impaired glucose tolerance. The thyroid hormones affect metabolism while elevated cortisol levels contribute to rapid aging.

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. Carl Jung
