WE PLAYED OK IN OUR FINAL SCRIMMAGE


I have to say we played ok in our final scrimmage of the year. We did some things ok while out pitchers are still walking way to many batters to be effective. We played nine innings last night and we did score more runs than they did but we still have quite a few things to work on before our season opener at Varina next Friday. The Virginia baseball team returns to action today against a very pesky William & Mary team who beat North Carolina yesterday 3-0. Also for those of you who don't know Louise's husband who is also Donna's father passed away last night, so keep there family in you prayers. MICKEY

Beef
The bad rep: Beef is full of saturated fat and dietary cholesterol, so people who care about their hearts should avoid it.

The good truth: Lean cuts of beef are a low-fat source of protein and iron, a mineral essential for getting oxygen from the lungs to cells throughout the body—and one many women (of childbearing age) are deficient in. There are many lean cuts of steaks: filet mignon, sirloin, strip steak, flank steak. If you can’t remember the names, pick steaks that are deep red with a relatively small amount of marbling—a fancy name for fat—to find lean cuts.

“Who you are is a necessary step
to being who you will be.”
