RENEGADES WIN, JMU FALLS TO MONTANA



The Richmond Renegades picked up 4-1 victory at 1st place Huntsville last night, the Gades will continue there road trip tonight at Twin City before returning home Sunday afternoon.  The James Madison Dukes lost to the Montana Grizzlies last night in the I-AA playoffs 35-27, the Dukes just fell to far behind to a good team and just were not able to recover.  Today in the I-AA playoffs the Richmond Spiders will travel to Northern Iowa, the good new is Northern Iowa has a domed stadium.  I went up to see the Colonials basketball game last night against Prince George, the Colonials played well at times but down the stretch they just turned the ball over to much allowing the Royals to come away with a 63-57 victory.  In college basketball action today the VCU Rams will face there cross town rival the Richmond Spiders at the Robins Center.  I did go down to Wal-Mart this morning and yes it was very cold but I did get some donuts.  MICKEY

The world is not dangerous because of those who do harm but because of those who look at it without doing anything.

DID YOU KNOW
The Himalayan goJi berry (PICTURED TO THE RIGHT) contains, weight for weight, more iron than steak, more beta carotene than carrots, more vitamin C than oranges.

Acquiring knowledge is not an end in itself, but only a means to an end. Knowledge without purpose is a destructive tool.

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's mind there are few.

Eggs: While most eggs aren't going to make anyone sick, experts estimate that more than 2 million germy eggs (as in Salmonella infected) get into circulation each year, sickening 660,000 people each year and killing as many as 300. Um, maybe we should think twice about eating that cookie dough (or, judging by our conversation on Vitamin G, perhaps you'd rather take your chances?). How to buy cleaner eggs? Make sure the carton says they're pasteurized and never buy a dozen that contains any obvious cracks or leaks.
