VIRGINIA LOOKS BAD AGAIN

The Virginia Cavalier basketball team looked pretty bad again last night falling to Florida State 69-50. The Cavaliers offense was as bad I have see them all year and the team looked like they were just going through the motions, they just didn't look like they had any purpose. I have to say that I am glad that college baseball starts tomorrow, hopefully the Cavalier baseball team will have good season. Well the weather looks it s going to be dry through Monday which happens to be the 1st day of baseball practice, however it's going to be a bit on the cool side for baseball. MICKEY

Type 2 diabetes (the more common kind) develops from eating too much of anything, including too much sugar. After you eat, your body breaks down food (sugary or otherwise) into glucose. Too much food translates into too much glucose, signaling your pancreas to crank out megadoses of insulin. Those unnaturally high insulin levels can do the equivalent of confusing your cells over time, making them unable to use insulin like they should. That causes sugar to pile up in your bloodstream instead of reaching your cells where it belongs.

Serve Yourself and Your Family in Smaller Portions
We all know portion control can have a slimming impact on your waistline, but it can do the same to your spending! Our eyes tend to be bigger than our stomachs so we pile food on our plates only to throw half away in the trash. Instead, serve a smaller portion and go back for seconds if you’re still hungry. That way, there should be more “untouched” food for leftovers.

Pray that success will not come any faster than you are able to endure it.
