Eat for Health: Switching to a Nutritarian Diet
This is an excerpt from Dr. Fuhrman's book Eat For Health.
As your body's detoxification activities increase in the first week or two of this program, the symptoms of toxic hunger could increase. These feelings could include lightheadedness, fatigue, headaches, increased urination, sore throat, flatulence, and, very rarely, fever, body itching, and rashes. These uncomfortable sensations rarely last longer then one week and, even if they do, they will lessen with time.
Occasionally, people find it takes time for their digestive tract to adjust to all the additional raw fiber, and they experience an increase in gas or bloating or have looser stools. This is usually caused by the increased volume of raw vegetables and because you swallow more air when eating salads. It is remedied by chewing better so the air is out of the mouth before swallowing. Better chewing also breaks down the cells, making them easier to digest. For those with this problem, the amount of raw salad can be increased in a more gradual fashion. You can also eat less raw foods and more cooked vegetables, such as steamed zucchini, squash, brown rice, potato, and sweet potato. When the symptoms subside, gradually increase the amount of raw greens and cruciferous vegetables in your diet. Dried fruits, roasted nuts, and beans can also contribute to digestive problems at the beginning of transitioning to this way of eating. To combat these issues, use raw nuts, avoid dried fruit and other sweet substances, and soak beans in water overnight or eat them in smaller amounts until you adjust.
So, if you are troubled by digestive problems, try the following:
- Chew food better, especially salads.
- Eat beans in smaller amounts.
- Soak beans and legumes overnight before cooking.
- Avoid carbonated beverages.
- Do not overeat.
- Eat less raw vegetables and increase the raw vegetables gradually.
Be patient and give your body a little time to adjust to a different eating-style. Remember, your digestive tract can make the adjustments if allowed to do it gradually.

Disease Proof
Pollan Sighting
Jenna Watson of TreeHugger recently caught Michael Pollan on the Canadian leg of his book tour. She blogged about it, here's some of her post:
I won't get into the nitty gritty details of every single word he said, but he was inspiring, engaging, funny and real. A must-see if you have the opportunity. One of the interesting points he makes is our lack of "food culture" in North America. We eat to get nutrients and "fuel-up", instead of eating to enjoy time with our families and savour the flavours of the stuff we put in our mouths. His eloquent words really made me think...Michael Pollan is a wonderful advocate of wholesome food. Here's what Dr. Fuhrman has to say about him:
It is amazing and saddening that some families don't eat together. My parents always had us sit together at the table and we weren't allowed to watch TV while we ate. It's an important time to catch up with one another and just have some family moments. Having come back to Toronto for 6 months (from my regular home of Barcelona), I do notice the lack of food culture, or better yet how the characteristics that Pollan says we should aim for are definitely things that we do in Spain.
Sometimes it seems like ALL we do is eat - it's a social thang. We sit down for breakfast, lunch and dinner (in my house at least). When we get together with friends we meet at a café, bar, restaurant or somebody's house to eat and/or drink.
Many of Michael Pollan's points are interesting and valid, but some discourage people to look to science as motivation to direct healthier eating styles and lifestyles. It almost seems as if his statements support a false view that what you eat does not matter much, when in fact, we have tremendous control our health destiny via nutritional excellence. As I always say, "Nutrition is the prescription." And Michael Pollen, I think, would support that high nutrient natural foods, not supplements is the key to good health.And my buddy Tara Parker-Pope of Well digs Michael Pollan too. In fact, she mentioned him in our recent interview. Check it out:
I think Michael Pollan makes a good point when he notes that this culture of nutritionism has taken much of the pleasure out of eating. Now when I put salmon on my plate in the cafeteria I swear I think to myself "mmm, omega 3s..." There's something really wrong with that.Hey, as a writer and healthy-eater, I admire him a lot.

Game of the Day: Wigan 1 SAFC 4
by Ashley Houghton
Rout in the rain at the DW.
3rd January 2012
Sunderland continued their fine start to 2012 with a 4-1 victory over Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium.
Goals from Craig Gardner, James McClean, Stephane Sessegnon and David Vaughan secured the points for the Black Cats who moved into the top half of the Barclays Premier League with the victory.
Hugo Rodallega pulled a goal back for the hosts but they were no match for a Sunderland side buoyed by their late win over Manchester City two days earlier.
Despite the visitors' dominance, it was Wigan who went closest to opening the scoring in the early stages when Steve Gohouri's strike was cleared off the line by Gardner after Sunderland failed to clear a corner.
The Latics continued to create openings as David Jones' strike from eight yards came back off the far post before Ben Watson tried his luck from 12 yards only to hit the other upright.
Gardner made the hosts pay with a superb free-kick after Watson had fouled Nicklas Bendtner outside the area.
After the break, McClean doubled the Black Cats' advantage when he slotted home the rebound after his initial header, from Vaughan's cross, was saved by Ali Al Habsi.
Wigan found a way back into the game as James McCarthy found Rodallega before the striker turned on the edge of the box and struck past both John O'Shea and Simon Mignolet.
However, any hopes of a comeback were crushed 15 minutes from time when Bendtner crossed for Sessegnon to slide home.
And the game was put to be in the closing stages as McClean's shot was charged down and ran loose to Vaughan, who smashed in from outside the area to complete an emphatic victory.
Sunderland: Mignolet, Richardson (Meyler, 67), Kilgallon, O'Shea, Cattermole, Gardner (Elmohamady, 83), Colback, Vaughan, McClean (Ji Dong-Won, 89), Sessegnon, Bendtner.
Subs not used: Carson, Laing, Ryan Noble, Lynch.

After an impressive week that included a perfect game and a weekend sweep in its conference opener, the Miami Hurricanes baseball team was rewarded in the most recent Baseball America Rankings released Monday.
Miami (10-5, 3-0) moved up three spots to No. 13 in this week's rankings after posting a record of 5-0 last week. The Hurricanes opened the week with two wins against Villanova and then followed that up with a three-game sweep of Boston College. It was the team's first sweep of an ACC opponent since sweeping North Carolina in April of 2012.
Starting pitcher Javi Salas was the star of the week, throwing the second perfect game in school history last Tuesday when Miami handled Villanova 17-0. Salas was also named the ACC pitcher of the week for his accomplishment.
"It's an honor to be recognized for my achievement this week, but the credit belongs to my teammates who made this game possible," Salas told HurricaneSports. "I'm so happy that my teammates and I were part of making history."
Miami's starting pitching was fantastic as whole during the five game stretch, allowing just four earned runs in 34.1 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.05.
Next up for the Hurricanes is Bethune-Cookman in a midweek contest Tuesday at Alex Rodriguez Park before heading on the road to face Stetson on Wednesday. Miami will then travel to Atlanta for a three-game set against Georgia Tech this weekend.

Oaksterdam's Richard Lee: Marijuana Legalization Is "Dead" in California -- For Now
After spending over $1.5 million out of his own pocket, Richard Lee thinks 2012 has no chance of seeing Marijuana legalized for California. Without any investors backing with support it just won't happen. It costs a great deal of money to get something like Marijuana legalized and without more support he feels the chances are slim to none.

Academy Award and Emmy nominee Taraji P. Henson ("Person of Interest" on CBS, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and "No Good Deed" opposite Idris Elba) stars in the World Premiere of "Above the Fold" by former New York Times reporter Bernard Weinraub and directed by Steven Robman. The show begins previews January 28, 2014 and performs at The Pasadena Playhouse through February 23.
Developed in part by The Pasadena Playhouse as part of its Hothouse at the Playhouse program, "Above the Fold" takes place against the backdrop of the sharp decline of newspapers and newspaper readership around the country, as the internet emerges as the major source of information around the world. The play tells of an ambitious newspaper reporter who comes to grips with a provocative and incendiary story involving a young African American woman who has accused three white fraternity students of raping her. The accusations against the students are made not only by the press, but also by the prosecutor in the case, who is seeking election.
Like the reporters on other newspapers and networks, the journalist, Jane (played by Taraji P. Henson), and her editors make a series of assumptions about who the defendants and the accuser are, and what might (and might not) have happened. What the journalist learns is that the truth is sometimes not only complicated and elusive, but can also leave the reporter facing intense pressures that could launch or shatter her career.
The cast also features Kristi Johnson, who returns to The Pasadena Playhouse after starring in the Playhouse productions of "Jitney" and "Intimate Apparel," and Arye Gross, Kristopher Higgins, Mark Hildreth, Joe Massingill and Seamus Mulcahy.
Sheldon Epps, Artistic Director of The Pasadena Playhouse, says, "I am tremendously excited about mounting the first production of this play which we developed in our Hothouse series. The play is timely, resonant, hard hitting, and surprising. Bernie writes of a world that he knows very well, so it provides a fascinating insider's look at the intricacies and the sometimes dangerous aspects of the world of journalism. It is always a challenging pleasure to help give birth to new work and I look forward to both the process and to what I know will be the exciting rewards of having this play on our stage."
Robman says "If you've ever wondered how much a news story is affected by the whims and biases of even the most scrupulous reporter, check out this play."
Weinraub adds "All the actors, led by Taraji, give such depth and meaning to their roles. They're supremely talented. And I'm deeply grateful to every one of them."
"Above the Fold" previews January 28 through February 2, and performs Tuesday through Sunday through February 23. Tickets are $38 to $72 plus premium, previews $26 to $50 plus premium. Call 626-356-7529, visit www.pasadenaplayhouse.org.
The Pasadena Playhouse is located at 39 South El Molino Avenue in Pasadena.

From humble beginnings to big aspirations
Uniting community at Saturdays Fun Fest
August 04, 2011
Geneva — It began with a simple idea. Have a fundraiser, serve some food, some live music and some fireworks.
Four years later, the Fun Festival has evolved into a full-fledged community tradition.
"I remember the first year," said Tara Young, one of the three co-chairs of this year's event, which is scheduled for Saturday from noon to 10 p.m. "We had no idea what we were walking into. It had such a huge turnout."
And it's grown even larger, which is fine according co-chair Gene Decker.
"We're shooting for a larger attendance than the Walworth County Fair," Decker said. "It would be really nice if we ran out of beer by 8 p.m."
Young said last year's attendance was estimated between 600 and 700 people. For Saturday, about 73 volunteers will help the 12 Fun Festival Committee members make this event, which is held at north boat launch on Lake Como, happen.
"It's a community event, so we pull in the community to help," Young said.
This year finds the event hitting its stride with a winning formula — raffles, Como's Got Talent, live music and a fireworks display.
The event
Young said one change this year is there are more vendors selling their wares during the event, which she was happy to see.
"There are people in the community who make things and they should have an opportunity to show them," Young said.
She said there's more of a concerted effort this year toward bringing in families, too.
"We want to see more kids and more families," Young said.
Decker said last year, the children's games weren't so organized. Both he and Young said this issue was addressed at the first Fun Festival Committee meeting this year.
"So we're going to have a little more organization this year," Decker said. "The kids games will be from noon to 6 p.m. and feature everything from balloon tosses to sack races. There will be something different every half-hour."
One of the main draws for the event is Como's Got Talent, which begins at 4 p.m. This year, it's an all-music lineup of 12 different acts. The MC is Nancy Douglass, of Lake 96.1 WLKG.
If that's not enough music, two acts which have performed at Fun Festival before — The Underdogs and The Wize Guys — are set to provide music outside of the talent show.
Decker said The Wize Guys are "three generations who do a combination of karaoke and singing" involving music ranging from the 1940s to the 1970s, and The Underdogs perform music from the 1960s and 70s.
"The sock hop theme just kind of fits into that," he said.
The raffles provide the chance to win some cash or a large-screen television. The Big Money Raffle has a grand prize of $5,000, with second- and third-place prizes of $1,000 and $500, respectively. There also will be a same-day raffle to win the TV. Tickets are one for $20 or three for $50 and can be purchased directly from the event co-chairs or at area taverns.
As in the past, there will be beer and dining tents. Local Boy Scouts will help out in the dining tent. Picnic-style food such as hamburgers, hot dogs, brats, Italian sausage and corn on the cob will be served from noon to 8 p.m.
Expect to see some local celebrities slinging suds in the beer tent. The co-chairs said one of the more popular bartenders during the event, Sen. Neal Kedzie, will resume his bartending duties from 5 to 7 p.m.
"He does a pretty good job," Young said. "All the girls love working with him."
It all ends with a bang, literally. Fireworks are expected to begin lighting up the night sky at 9:15 p.m. Decker said they will be shot once again from a barge on Lake Como.
The work
This year, Fun Festival founder Margaret Downing isn't at the helm, but the three who are have been involved in the planning before. Bill Leonard, the third co-chair, said Downing is in charge of seeking donations to help fund the event.
"She wanted a break," Leonard said. "She deserved it."
Listening to Young, Decker and Leonard talk about what's in store, it's clear these three have formed a synergy. When one of them can't finish a thought, another one steps in to complete the sentence without missing a beat. When one of them can't remember a name, another one can.
That's what happens when people work together for a long time.
"We first met in March," Decker said. "We met once a month. We've been meeting every two weeks since June to make sure everything's buttoned up."
Young and Decker gave Leonard credit for coming up with this year's theme — a 1950s-style sock hop.
"I think that was the first thing out of Bill's mouth. We all said, 'Great,'" Decker said.
Although everything goes through the three chairs, they each have their areas of management.
Young oversees the beer tent, advertising, the Como's Got Talent show, food and vendors. Leonard handles the shuttle boats and fireworks. Decker is organizing the tents for the event, the raffle, children's games and entertainment.
But months and weeks fall quickly. Once the Fun Festival Committee's work is done, it comes time to actually set up the event. Decker said this begins a couple days prior to the big event.
"On Thursday, it's basically getting the tents, the bar and stuff all set up out there," he said.
Decker said on Friday, they set up tables, chairs, electricity, heated food servers and lighting.
Leonard said there hasn't been a Fun Festival he's worked when he didn't return home before 3 a.m.
"It's a lot of work, then we disappear for a couple weeks," Young joked.
So why do it?
"I love to see smiles on people's faces," Leonard said.
Decker said it's for a good cause. As in the past, proceeds from the event will go toward fire coverage and lake and park improvement costs. He said during the past three years, the event has raised $45,000 — money which has been used to buy a defibrillator for town police and a weed cutter for the lake.
"I love to see people get involved," Decker said.
"It's really brought the whole lake together," Leonard said.
"It's a day when we all get together and it's great," Young said.

Ethnicity and religion: The surprises at Brazil 2014
Posted Friday, June 20 2014 at 01:00
In Summary
Whereas Spain fielded a lot of players who played in the last World Cup when they became champions, the Netherlands on the other hand fielded virtually a new team with just a few players carried over from the previous World Cup team
The World Cup in Brazil has thankfully successfully taken off despite the anxieties raised by late completion of a number of the host stadium facilities and the endless demonstrations in many cities against the high cost of hosting the games at the expense of more pressing priorities relating to the improvement of the welfare of the majority of people. The annihilation of Spain by the Netherlands by 5-1 should have some lessons for all teams.
Whereas Spain fielded a lot of players who played in the last World Cup when they became champions, the Netherlands on the other hand fielded virtually a new team with just a few players carried over from the previous World Cup team.
Had the hitherto dependable goal keeper and captain of Spain, Iker Casillas Fernandez, been playing for an African team, he would have been accused of taking bribes from the other team or of having been affected by a strong "juju" sent by some medicine man (witchdoctor) hired by the Netherlands. Chile, with a younger energetic team added to the humiliation of the Spanish team by beating them 2-0.
The humiliation of Cameroon (10 men for most of the game) by Croatia 4-0, similar to the German thrashing of Christiano Ronaldo's Portugal was made worse by a Cameroonian player head-butting a fellow player, an act of gross indiscipline, that was a bloat on all Africans as Cameroon was our representative in Brazil and therefore Cameroon football authorities should follow up and punish the culprit.
The most noteworthy aspect of these games is that any team without Black players can hardly do well. Even Italy could only win against England with a goal scored by their one Black player, Mario Balotelli (Ghanaian name Barwuah), some version of "Bad Black".
Virtually all the South American teams, except Argentina (mostly ethnic Italians) and Uruguay are mostly Black, especially Colombia and Ecuador, but also Costa Rica, Honduras and Brazil.
The French team has always been a black team, but even the Swiss, who recently went through a referendum to allow one mosque to be built in Switzerland, had some Muslim and Black players.
The observable surprise is that the team supporters of these Black teams in the stands of the various stadia are all virtually White, even Brazilians, perhaps because the Blacks in those countries could not afford the expenses of following their teams.
May be I am treading on dangerous ground now that I have wondered into uncharted waters of matters of race, but the other face of a game are the spectators.
Perhaps one other not so small piece of surprise is that the Bosnia-Herzegovina is not cheered by two of the ethnic components of the country. This country has three ethnic groups which coincide with three religious faiths in the country: the Croats (Catholic), Serbs (Orthodox) and Muslims. The three groups speak one language but they are divided along religious lines and these define each group as a different ethnic group.
Even the two countries Croatia and Serbia speak the same language (Serbo-Croatian) but Croatians are Catholic and write with the West European Latin script, whereas the Serbs are Greek Orthodox and write with a Cyrillic script and this keeps them apart as different ethnic countries.
Thus the Croats and Serbs in Bosnia-Herzegovina do not support their national team because it is composed of Muslims. This is but another example that religion is often more of a divisive factor.
From this small country of four million people, some people are on trial in the ICC for having killed many fellow nationals because of their ethnicity (religion).

Trans-Atlantic Migration: The Paradoxes of Exile
ISBN13:by Falola; Toyin
Nonspecific Binding
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 1st edition with a publication date of 4/10/2012.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
This book argues that a new cadre of African immigrants are finding themselves in the New World-mostly well educated, high-income earning professionals, and belonging to the category termed "African brain drain," they constitute the antinomy of those Africans who were forcibly removed from Africa during slavery. Along with this sense of freedom and voluntary migration comes a paradox-that of living in two worlds and negotiating the pleasures and agonies that come with living in exile. For the new African immigrant, the primary factor motivating migration is the desire for a better life whether fleeing political persecution, economic crisis, refugee crisis, or a combination thereof. The overall consequences include displacement, alienation, and the not so enchanting reality of exile. In its encompassing structure and multivalent perspectives, Trans-Atlantic Migration sets in motion the shifting theoretical and pragmatic verity that the new African diaspora and transatlantic migrations are paths laden with paradoxes that only time, negotiations, compromises, and sense of identities can ultimately resolve.

Forecast discussion: A high pressure system is currently hanging over Northern New England at the moment. This high is giving Providence a beautiful day of sunshine for Tuesday, but it also is keeping colder air over the region. As we move through the week, we will feel spring begin on Thursday, but by early next week old man winter will make a return to the area.
The high will provide us with clear skies tonight, and temperatures will fall into the lower 20's. As we move through Wednesday, winds will turn to the southeast, allowing for some warmer air to move into the area. A warm front will pass through Wednesday night, bringing some clouds by sunset, and the low's center will help bring some light rain for Wednesday night. Temperatures will be too warm for precipitation to change to snow, so we will remain as rain into Thursday morning. Skies will bring some sunshine after the low passes to our east by Thursday afternoon.
Thursday is the first day of astronomical spring, and it will definitely feel like it. Temperatures will climb into the lower 50's. Friday will be a tad cooler, but we will have mostly sunny skies to start the day. A quick moving low pressure system will bring some precipitation to the area by early Saturday morning. It will start off as flurries or snow showers, before warmer air arrives and changes it to rain showers. The showers will end by Saturday night.
As we start early next week, temperatures will once again be heading down. Another blast of colder air from Canada will move south and into New England. Temperatures will reach the lower 40's on Sunday, but we will barely make it above freezing by Monday. Right now, I am watching the models to see what they will do with a developing area of low pressure off the eastern Great Lakes. This low may pass through the Northeast and bring some light snow by next Tuesday night. At this time, the American model is the only model projecting this scenario. For now, my forecast for Tuesday is quite low.
72 hour forecast:
Tonight: Clear skies with a low of 22.
Wednesday: Mostly sunny with clouds increasing through the afternoon. We will see a high of 43 with winds turning to the southeast at 9-12 mph by the afternoon.
Wednesday night: Light rain begins around 11 p.m. with a low of 35. Winds will come from the east-southeast at 7-10 mph.
Thursday: Showers end by 10 a.m. with partly to mostly sunny skies. It will be milder with a high of 53.
Thursday night: Partly cloudy and a low of 32.
Friday: Mostly sunny through the morning, with cloudy skies by around sunset. We will have a high of 48.
Friday night: Mostly cloudy with some flurries by dawn and a low of 31.
Extended Forecast:
Saturday: Scattered snow showers turn to rain showers by 11 a.m. Precipitation ends before midnight. Highs 45-48, lows 28-31.
Sunday: Partly to mostly sunny. Highs 40-43, lows 19-22.
Monday: Mostly sunny and quite cold. Highs 32-35, lows 19-22.
Tuesday: Partly sunny with possible light snow by the evening. Highs 34-37, lows 20-23.

Dell also plans to ship the systems with a Klipsch audio system, 8GB of RAM, a 750GB 7200RPM hard drive, and an eight-cell battery. Judging by the current M11x and M15x specifications, we assume that will represent the top configuration while less memory storage will be available at a savings. Other CPU and GPU options are also likely, and we wouldn't be surprised if an SSD was offered.
Aesthetically, you can expect the aggressive looks seen on previous Alienware notebooks.

Price: $19.95
A puffing steam train climbs into the Himalayas, a rolling rumble echoes over the holy waters of the Ganges, an astonishing five million commuters rush daily through the Bombay Victoria Terminusjoin National Geographic as we journey on one of the world's largest railways. Since 1853, India's railway has been a unifying force. Not only did it physically link distant regions, it also connected the myriad of castes, languages, and religions that comprise India. It's a rich history, riding the sumptuous Palace on Wheels through Rajasthan or the "toy train" to Darjiling, but sadly, the age of steam is dying. At the Black Beauty contest, the beloved steam engines are admired for the last time. From the driver in the steaming locomotive to the station master in the sleepy village, from the family traveling to a wedding to the commuters in the large cities, this great institution reflects the country itself. Many are the faces, and varied are the stories, on The Great Indian Railway.
Not available for shipment outside of the U.S. and Canada.

Pure nostalgia - wonderful film
By Les Pins '51
from Dubai, United Arab Emirates
About Me Casual Viewer
Best Uses
Comments about The Great Indian Railway DVD Exclusive:
I first purchased this on VHS 16 years ago and was mesmerised by the subject, the human stories surrounding Indian Railways and National Geographic's stunning film photography.In 1995 Indian Railways (IR) was India's biggest single employer. This film covers the management, operations and maintenance of IR's rail network through touching and very natural human angles and stories. From the sons of Maharajahs, to the widows of signalmen. From the cold of the Darjeeling Himalaya Railway to the heat and dust of Mumbai's Victoria Terminus it is a kaleidoscope of sounds, colours and even emotions. A particular delight is the Indian gentleman travelling from Delhi to Madras (now Chennai)who relishes the Indian curry meal served to him on the train en route. The confusion of his arrival at Chennai Terminus and his thwarted efforts to get a cab home show how a film benefits from the traveller's story.The film concludes with a steamy beauty contest; the best presented steam locomotive in the IR Delhi Loco Sheds. It is made poignant by the knowledge that the steam locomotives are soon to be retired for ever making the film an important and well timed historical documentary. Pure nostalgia.Well done National Geographic for releasing this on DVD. Thank you.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nostalgiac for the Passing of Steam
By Daryl
from San Francisco
Filmed in 1995, this documentary is a nostalgiac look at the end of steam trains in India. The film covers many facets of trains in India including the atmosphere of a second-class compartment, the luxury of the Palace on Wheels, the madness of a train pulling into a station as coolies jostle for an attempt to carry passengers' baggage, the role of the station masters, even a look at the legendary Toy Train of Darjeeling and a miniature train that runs on a maharaja's tabletop bearing decanters to dinner guests.There is a strong emphasis on the emotional value of the railway system to its passengers and employees. You will be surprised by how antique and manually operated the system was in 1995.This film is especially recommended for train buffs and those interested in travel to India. It gives a good feel of what it must be like to be there.

College Hockey:Dell not back for senior year at North Dakota, signs with ECHL's Eagles
North Dakota goalie Aaron Dell has given up his senior year of eligibility to sign a pro deal with the ECHL's Colorado Eagles, according to the Grand Forks Herald.
The report adds that Dell, who set North Dakota's single-season record with 30 wins as a sophomore, also considered signing with the Wheeling Nailers.
"I just decided it's time to pursue my pro career," Dell said to the Herald. "They are bringing in two talented guys in [freshman Zane] Gothberg and [Alabama-Huntsville transfer Clarke] Saunders, so now is as good of a time as any for me."
Senior walk-on Tate Maris will also compete for playing time this season for North Dakota.
Last season, Dell guided UND to a third straight Broadmoor Trophy and was named the tournament's MVP. He went 18-10-2 with a 2.67 goals-against average an a .900 save percentage in 33 games.
"It was great," Dell added. "It was the three best years of my life, for sure. I came in with a great group of guys and it's a little tough right now to leave those guys because it was such a good experience."

Long Beach State Begins Quest for Big West Tournament Title on Tuesday
49ers will face Cal State Fullerton in first-round match-up
Jody Wynn is in her seventh year as the head women's basketball coach at Long Beach State. Since her arrival, LBSU has seen rapid improvements with two Women's National Invitation Tournament (WNIT) bids and six-straight Big West Tournament appearances, including a run to the championship game in 2012.
Last year, Wynn led the Beach to one of its most memorable seasons in recent history. Not only did the 49ers reach 20 wins for the first time in 15 years, but their 22-10 overall record was also the program's best since 1990-91. Long Beach State turned heads in the preseason where it went 13-1, which matched the best regular-season non-conference record in school history. The lone defeat came in the third game of the year and was a narrow five-point overtime loss to USC. Following that setback, LBSU proceeded to go on a 15-game win streak, defeating perennial national powerhouses Cal and LSU along the way. The Golden Bears were ranked 18th in the country at the time.
The 49ers were recognized for their effort as they received votes in the Associated Press Women's Basketball Poll for three-straight weeks. They also made their way into the the College Insider Mid-Major Top-25, climbing as high as No. 9 in January. The season culminated in Long Beach State's second WNIT berth in three years. Raven Benton and Hallie Meneses were both All-Big West selections with Benton being named to the second team and Meneses garnering honorable mention recognition.
In 2013-14, Wynn guided the Beach to its first winning record in nine seasons, finishing with an overall mark of 17-15. Long Beach State also advanced to its fifth consecutive Big West Tournament under Wynn's direction. Lauren Spargo and Ella Clark garnered All-Big West honorable mention recognition, while Raven Benton and Anna Kim were named to the conference's all-freshman team.
In 2012-13, Wynn put LBSU (16-16) back on the national stage with an at-large berth into the WNIT. It was the program's first national postseason tournament since 2000. The Beach ended up hosting eventual runner-up Utah in the first round and dropped a narrow 56-49 decision. Wynn had two players recognized by the conference with Devin Hudson and Alex Sanchez receiving All-Big West honors. Hudson was also selected to the Big West All-Tournament Team after notching a conference tournament record 24 rebounds against Cal State Fullerton.
In 2011-12, the 49ers finished sixth in the conference, but found themselves one win away from earning an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. In the Big West Tournament, Long Beach State came back from a 19-point deficit on the road to defeat No. 2 seed CSUN in the first round before upending top-seeded Cal Poly, 51-48, in a semifinal match-up. LBSU eventually fell to UC Santa Barbara, 63-54, in its first championship appearance in 11 years. Three 49ers were named to the all-tournament team, while Wynn also had two athletes, Tipesa Moorer and Alex Sanchez, garner All-Big West honors.
In her first year at the Beach (2009-10), Wynn led a senior-laden squad to a fourth-place finish in conference play with a 9-7 record. They swept eventual Big West Tournament champion UC Riverside and defending Big West champion UCSB during the regular season. Long Beach State also defeated the Gauchos on their home floor for the first time in 19 years. Wynn saw three of her players earn All-Big West recognition, including first-team selection Karina Figueroa.
In 2010-11, LBSU battled through the loss of six letterwinners, including three starters, as it finished sixth in the Big West. Two players were named to the all-conference team, while the 49ers also claimed the Big West Freshman of the Year and the Big West Hustle Player of the Year awards.
Wynn came to Long Beach State with 13 years of collegiate coaching experience under her belt. She spent five seasons as the senior assistant, recruiting coordinator and head of scouting at USC, where she was in charge of bringing in four nationally-ranked recruiting classes, including the No. 1-ranked group in 2006. On the court, Wynn coached seven All-Pac-10 performers, a conference freshman of the year and a WNBA draft pick.
In 2008-09, Wynn helped the Trojans advance to their first-ever Pac-10 championship game, with five players garnering all-league honors. In her first season at USC (2004-05), the Women of Troy tied for second in the conference and rolled into the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1997, finishing the campaign ranked 22nd in the nation. One year later, the Trojans were back in the postseason, advancing to the second round.
Wynn entered the coaching ranks in 1996-97 as an assistant at Pepperdine. She helped the Waves to six postseason appearances, including three bids to the NCAA Tournament. In her eight seasons in Malibu, Pepperdine had six 20-win campaigns and captured four West Coast Conference championships.
The Brea, Calif., native was a four-year letterwinner and starting guard at USC from 1993-96. During her playing career, the Trojans compiled a record of 79-35 (.693), won the 1994 Pac-10 Conference championship and made three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances.
Wynn was also a prep standout at Brea Olinda High School, where she guided the Ladycats to three California state championships. She earned CIF-Southern Section and Orange County Player of the Year accolades in 1991 and 1992, while also being tabbed a USA Today and Streets & Smith honorable mention All-American.
Wynn earned her bachelor's degree in exercise science from USC in 1996 and attained a master's in education from Pepperdine in 2000.
The former Jody Anton is married to Derek Wynn and the couple has two daughters, Jada and Kaeli.

Two jobs and many coffee cups ago, an ex co-worker and I were partaking in our morning ritual of gossiping in the break room while making the finest office coffee you can find. I do not mean to brag, but I usually make the tastiest office coffee in all the land (at least I thought so until I started working for the BeverageFactory.com, go figure there are lots of people here who make a mean cup of coffee!).
This morning, however, was different. My old co-worker offered to brew the morning coffee and I grudgingly complied. To my utter horror, she did not rinse the pot she was about to use which was crusted with yesterday's stale coffee remnants. Nor did she rinse out the coffee maker's permanent filter. Apparently where she comes from, it is acceptable to simply dump out the old grinds (at the rate she was going I was amazed she even managed this).
As she sloppily filled the coffee maker's reservoir with tap water and carelessly dumped the coffee in the filter that I had generously taken home and ground the night before, I could only shutter thinking of the stale and bitter brew that awaited me. To my old co-worker, you know who you are and I hope you are out there reading this now. Clean your coffee maker! It is neither difficult nor time consuming. Follow these simply steps and you too will be a drip coffee luminary!
5 Simple Steps to Clean Coffee
Step 1: Remove your coffee maker's filter. If your coffee maker contains a permanent filter simply dump out the grinds and wash it. If your coffee maker uses disposable filters, just remove the filter and throw it away!
Step 2: Remove the filter holder on a regular basis (probably every other brew) and rinse it out as coffee grinds have a tendency to settle there.
Step 3: Clean your carafe with soap and water after every brew. Not only will coffee stain your carafe, it will leave behind residues that will effect the taste of your next brew.
Step 4: Wipe your coffee maker down with a wet rag paying special attention to the hot plate (when it is off of course) as this area tends accumulate coffee drips that will send the lovely smell of burned coffee throughout the house when you next turn on your coffee maker.
Step 5: Just like espresso makers, coffee makers should be decalcified every 3 months in order to remove the minerals from your water that have built up in the machine and negatively effect taste. You may use a decalcifying agent or white vinegar or water. Which ever you choose needs to be added to a pot of water which is run through the machine as if you were brewing just without the coffee.
Follow these simple steps, and you will allow both your coffee beans and your coffee maker to reach their full brewing potential.

The autopsy results are in; the late Pastor Zachery Tims died from a heroin and cocaine overdose on August 12, 2011. Family, friends and the many people who experienced the anointed ministry of Zachery Tims have had to relive this tragedy in the media this past holiday season. In response to the release of those autopsy results last month I am republishing this article originally titled "Church, Stop the Cover-Up!" (Published 2011). In the meantime, pray for the Tims children. Pray for the Body Christ.
Will you lukewarm Christians please, please, please STOP with the Judge not that ye may not be judged (Matthew 7:1)? You obviously do not study your Bible. To judge in the context of this Scripture is to separate or to make a distinction between truth and error. Per the author of this text, the standard by which we judge or make a distinction regarding the sins of others will be the same standard by which we will be judged. It does not mean to condemn.
Calling an addict an "addict" is not judging him. The Word of God commands that we judge with righteous judgment (John 7:24). Zachery Tims was an awesome preacher and pastor who was bound by sin. He was anointed to preach the Gospel, but he did not allow the anointing to break the yokes in his life.
Your anger with the NYPD for revealing the presence of "white powder" in Zachery Tims' pocket is misplaced. What could that white powder possibly be? Why do you think it was there? Yes, you have a right to be angry, but your anger needs to redirected. Be angry with the devil. Be angry with Zachery. Let us all be angry with ourselves. Had we held him to a standard of holiness; just maybe... Just maybe if some of those preachers who called Zachery Tims their brother, but turned a blind eye to his vices instead of getting in his face like a real brother would have, just maybe...
Again, if a righteous man turns from his righteousness (right doing and right standing with God) and some gift or providence which I lay before him he perverts into an occasion to sin and he commits iniquity, he shall die; because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered, but his blood will I require at your hand. Ezekiel 3:20
Church, it's time to STOP THE COVER-UP! The excuse that you are protecting his family and ministry is lame to say the least. Zachery Tims' children will be fine because they have a godly mother raising them. And as much as he could be, Zachery was a good father. And besides, children are not dummies. They know when something is wrong with Daddy. If your excuse is you don't want to destroy his ministry, well, if it is founded by God then the gates of hell cannot destroy it. Over 30 years ago my father died alone in a hotel room – the indirect result of years of addiction. Unlike Zachery Tims my father had been dead three days before his body was discovered. He was 42 years old and he too left behind 4 children – two boys and two girls.
The death of my dear brother in Christ has left me heartbroken. But the truth is, Zachery Tims died because he sowed to his flesh. This does not take away from the wonderful things that he did for people nor does it make him an awful man. It is however, indicative of his pride and fear which kept him in bondage. People of God, please STOP making excuses for these preachers. They will never change if you keep up with the "No one is perfect... Judge not.... Touch not...." When the Lord told Zachery Tims to begin New Destiny in a hotel room in Florida, IT WAS NOT HIS WILL that Zachery Tims end his ministry in a hotel room in New York!
Church, we must stop the cover-up! There are too many preachers in the Body of Christ who are anointed and addicted! We cannot wait for them to confess, we must snatch them out of the fire and the pulpit if necessary. When my biological brother was strung out on crack, I went to the crack house to get him! Don't let another preacher go out like Zach! Death on the 37th floor was not Zachery Tims' divine destiny!

Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder charges in the 2012 deaths of two men he allegedly gunned down after an encounter inside a Boston nightclub. Hernandez appeared in Suffolk Superior Court Wednesday afternoon in the shooting deaths of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado. A third man was wounded.
A family member of one of the victims sobbed loudly as Hernandez entered his not guilty plea to seven charges.
Prosecutors allege Hernandez ambushed and gunned down two men in 2012 after a chance encounter inside a Boston nightclub. They say that after Hernandez and an associate encountered the two men in a club, Hernandez followed them in an SUV, pulled up alongside them as their vehicle stopped at a red light and opened fire.
Hernandez, 24, already faces charges in the 2013 slaying of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. He was released by the Patriots last summer after his arrest in Lloyd's shooting death.
Authorities have not said if there is any connection between the 2012 killings and Lloyd's slaying. Lloyd's body was found in an industrial area near Hernandez's home in North Attleborough. Lloyd was dating a sister of Hernandez's fiancee.
Hernandez's lawyers have said he is looking forward to proving his innocence.

The First 70 Years? I have wended my way through
them, wanting to know everything, working hard, crying,
laughing. I have held hands with the dying and danced
elaborately, baked fabulous cakes and needlepointed
handsome men and beautiful women. I have honed my
senses and made the best use of them I could.
Mind, body, and soul. A united goal. Of equal weight.
I do not always manage to balance them, but the effort
continues. Friends help me with this. They are here for
me, as I am here for them.
Friends. This comes way at the top of my list of
what has kept me going all these years—especially
necessary for someone who loves being alone.
Right along with that is Honesty. When someone asks
me a question, asks for an opinion, reaches out, I have
no trouble saying what I believe directly without coloring
my response. This sometimes offends, sometimes
is welcomed. No matter. Those seekers always know
they can count on my response as from the heart.
Love? Without doubt, also right up there. Do I need to
say anything about Love? I believe, deep down, almost
everyone knows what Love is.
It's a mutual-admiration society, my friends and I.
I thank you all—current, disappeared, and to come.
Capturing the essence of a scene in a single instant, that which emerges @ the moment of conception, is what I find most rewarding. The challenge is not in depicting the forms but in recognizing the totality of the image. Magically infusing power into small incidents. Transforming everyday objects and moments into memorable icons. My interests are in exposing the inner-city spaces we inhabit. These Urban Landscape images transform into opportunities for formal, aesthetic, and social invention, blurring the sharp contours of fact and fiction, image and reality. To unite, when possible, the compositional rigor of documentary photography with the magic of Romanticism. Lee and I have been working together for many years, not only as a creative partnership, but a life-long one as well. We invite you to examine our books, write opinions, and appreciatively purchase a few. We will be uploading new titles of our artography as time goes on. Please come back and visit us again.

DALLAS (AP) -- PGA Professional John Nieporte grabbed the final qualifying spot for next week's U.S. Open on Tuesday by holing an 8-foot birdie putt on the first hole of a playoff to defeat 15-year-old David Snyder.
Nieporte, the head professional at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla., had to return to the Florida qualifer with Snyder on Tuesday after darkness forced the suspension of play on Monday.
Journeyman professional Zack Fischer had to play 63 holes of qualifying to make his first U.S. Open. Fischer, 23, a former player at the University of Texas-Arlington who plays mini-tours, began his journey with an 18-hole local qualifier in May, followed by a 36-hole qualifier at Lakewood Country Club on Monday. He was tied with three-time PGA Tour winner Ryan Palmer for the last spot, and they went eight holes of a playoff until it was too dark to continue. Fischer made birdie on the first hole Tuesday morning to get a spot at Merion next week. The field now is at 150 players. Six more will come from the world ranking Sunday and then the alternate list. ©2013 by STATS LLC and Associated Press.

As the name suggests they are based on AMD's 790FX, 790X, and 770 chipsets, respectively. All three boards feature AM3 sockets and DDR3 memory slots, as well as an 8+2 CPU VRM power phase design that allows maximum overclockability and compatibility with 140W Phenom II processors. Just like their Intel counterparts, these rely on NEC's uPD720200 chip for USB 3.0, and Marvell's 88SE9128 controller for 6Gbps SATA.
No detailed specifications are available for the 790X and 770 models, but according slides posted by The Tech Report, the enthusiast-grade GA-790FXTA-UD5 has three PCI Express x16 slots (capable of running in a x16, x8, x8 lane configuration), eight internal SATA ports, two eSATA/USB combo connectors, and Gigabyte's Precision OV to ensure precise voltage control and fine stepping for the CPU, memory and chipset.

You may want to drive a little slower this Fourth of July. Kentucky State Police have been out in full force this past weekend and will continue their efforts through the coming weekend.
Fines for speeding have recently increased in Virginia where penalties now range from $750 to more than $1,000.
Kentucky fines for speeding haven't changed, but do you know what you would pay if you got pulled over?
"In Kentucky the fines are still really low - $20, $30, $40," explained Trooper Todd Holder, with the Kentucky State Police.
It's the court cost that gets expensive.
"If you receive a citation for ten miles-an-hour over the speed limit, your going to pay $158 - $138 of it is court cost and $20 is the actual fine itself," Trooper Holder explained.
This driver was pulled over for going almost 20 miles-an-hour over the speed limit, but wouldn't go on camera to talk about it.
"Twenty miles-an-hour over is going to be $178," Trooper Holder said.
We caught a truck going 82 mph - that's 17 mph over the speed limit. The fine for that would be $172.
"I was trying to go along with the traffic," speeder, Rudolph Blue tried explaining.
Blue was on his way to a delivery, just trying to save a few minutes.
"There's no excuse - it doesn't matter - if everyone else is wrong, I was wrong too," Blue said.
Since Blue is from Tennessee where the speed limit is 70, he said sometimes he forgets it's different in Kentucky.
"A lot of times you just go along with what everybody else does - you must do what everybody else do," Blue said.
With the Fourth of July falling in the middle of the week, lengthening the holiday, more people will be on the road and following other speeders will be even easier to do.
"I'm not trying to justify anything, I'm just trying to get caught up," Blue explained.
So the question is, do you think the $172 is worth the few minutes you save speeding?
A new Senate bill passed on June 26, 2007, said The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet can raise the speed limit on limited access highways, interstates and parkways. The state is considering raising the speed limit on I-65 to 70 miles an hour, but that change has not been made.

Editor, GoDucks.com
In naming Erik Chinander to replace departed defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti as the Ducks' outside linebackers coach, UO coach Mark Helfrich didn't technically continue "the Oregon way" of tabbing a current staff member for a new job. But it's pretty darn close.
Chinander, 34, was announced Wednesday as the newest full-time member of the UO coaching staff. He returns to Oregon after a year on Chip Kelly's staff with the Eagles, prior to which Chinander spent three years as an intern and graduate assistant coach for the Ducks.
About the only thing new to Chinander, as he moved into his new office this week, was the location of that office — the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex, which opened late last summer.
"It'll probably take me a month to figure out the twists and turns of this place," Chinander joked Wednesday from behind his desk in the office vacated when new defensive coordinator Don Pellum moved down the hall to Aliotti's old digs, which feature floor to ceiling windows overlooking Martin Luther King Boulevard and, farther north, the Coburg hills.
Chinander's hiring provides a jolt of youth and energy to Oregon's staff, which mixes a new generation that also includes offensive coordinator Scott Frost and receivers coach Matt Lubick with stalwarts such as running backs coach Gary Campbell and offensive line coach Steve Greatwood.
Chinander left Eugene on Wednesday afternoon to put that youthful energy into action on the recruiting trail, and he sounds ready to bring a prominent new voice to the practice field in April.
"I'm not a negative person, but I'm a yeller," Chinander said. "I've got no problem chasing guys around and bringing energy.
"Between DP and Ron Aiken and John Neal, we've got enough guys (on the defensive staff) that can take guys aside and say, 'Hey, here's what you should have done.' I need to be out there showing guys the tempo, showing them how to chase the ball, working on things you can't do until you're in 11-on-11 football."
To that end, Chinander's return will harken back to the days his mentor the last four years, Jerry Azzinaro, was at Oregon. Azzinaro coached the Ducks' defensive line from 2009-12, an era in which the outside linebackers were primarily grouped together with the three down linemen for meetings and drills. (Aliotti worked with the nickel and dime packages in the secondary then, before taking over outside linebackers last season.)
Chinander was an intern on the UO staff in 2010, and a graduate assistant in 2011-12, when he had de facto ownership of the outside linebackers, for portions of meetings and individual drills in practice. Thus, he's familiar with how Oregon uses the position, and even some of his personnel, including returning starter Tony Washington and Tyson Coleman.
"If it would have been any other place in the country, I probably wouldn't have left," said Chinander, who worked as an assistant to Azzinaro with the Eagles this past season. "But this is such an easy transition, as far as knowing the lay of the land, and being familiar with the people.
"But also, coming back into a new head coach, a new building, a new defensive coordinator, there are going to be some fun challenges."
Chinander grew up in Iowa, the son of a high school football coach, and initially thought he'd follow his father's path into prep teaching and coaching. He was recruited to the University of Iowa by legendary head coach Hayden Fry, and finished his career there under Kirk Ferentz, with whom Chinander consulted prior to taking his new job with the Ducks.
Incredibly, Chinander's group of mentors with the Hawkeyes also included offensive line coach Joe Philbin, now the head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Given that pedigree, there's no wonder Chinander ultimately entered the coaching ranks himself.
An injury ended his playing career — "I also wasn't very good," Chinander joked — but by then he'd discovered his value was higher as a de facto coach for teammates than on the field himself. He worked as a strength and conditioning intern while finishing his undergraduate degree, then used a family connection to get a job coaching both lines at Ellsworth Community College in Iowa Falls.
An invitation to coach a camp at Northern Iowa led to a job for Chinander on the staff there, just two years removed from his own playing career. Eventually, Chinander was roommates with another Northern Iowa assistant, Frost, who helped open the door for Chinander's internship at Oregon in 2010. (Chinander had also known Kelly casually, from playoff matchups between Northern Iowa and New Hampshire, and seeing Kelly speak at coaching clinics.)
At Northern Iowa, Chinander thrived as a recruiter, given how he was able to relate to players not much older than he was. And he was growing into a gifted X-and-O guy, to the point he was entrusted to be Azzinaro's "eyes in the sky" during games, quickly diagnosing personnel groups and formations to give the Ducks and Eagles ideas of opponents' tendencies.
Chinander's ability to build relationships — and some cases of being in the right place at the right time — also helped his career progression.
"This business is a lot about that," he said Wednesday.
With the Eagles, Chinander had the opportunity to coordinate elements of meetings and practice, because of commitments Azzinaro had in his dual role as assistant head coach. Chinander also worked with outside linebackers, under the position coach there, Bill McGovern.
At Oregon, Azzinaro helped reshape the Ducks' defense, transitioning to a 3-4 scheme with a "drop end" that moved between defensive end and outside linebacker. He also helped mold under-the-radar recruits like Taylor Hart and Wade Keliikipi into key pieces of Oregon's 2013 defense as seniors.
"Obviously you learn great technique and how to teach the guys, there's no question about that," Chinander said of being Azzinaro's understudy the last four years. "But you can do that from a lot of people.
"With him it's all about, how do we take these young men we're given and establish a culture in which they can thrive — not just as football players but as people? How do we get them from good to great?
"He's really good at that. The other thing is, he's the best at getting the guys to play as well as they can, getting the most out of their ability. And that's what I've always wanted to do. Can I take these guys and get the best out of their ability, get the most out of them?
"It's all about creating that culture first. As long as they know you have their best interest at heart, they'll do anything you ask them to do. They'll buy in."

my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look at the tats and 15 inch arms and neck!!!!! this "man" is built for taking dick up the ass just like you Block.
Is he still on dialysis? He looks really bad now; it literally is only a matter of a few years.
He looks better than 90% of people out there, but yes he has lost size, his chest has disapeared
His face is bloated beyond recognition, maybe his muscles look better than 90% but look at the whole package (don't look at the cock though), he does not look healthy.
Oh lawwwd, you try to look 1 percent as good as Derek whilst having 4 hours of dialysis a dayHe actually will die fairly soon I imagine, I feel kind of rotten trashing him like this, he surely must have an internet persona but then a real introspective weeping persona in real life. It must be fucking tough for instance, to post gay fucked up narcissistic selfie shit, talk about how rich you are and then add in "I'm seeing clients for personal training on Thursday at XYXY gym on 11th and 3rd $30 special this week only". How would you motivate your self in that situation, fuck I'd be at home on xbox all day waiting for the inevitable.
Good point, I guess what you're saying is that he's a courageous individual who looks at adversity and death right in the eye and doesn't flinch and say "I'm pinning today and getting my pump on fuck you"

I can't see it, can you put the picture up on another site?If he's really going to die that's really too bad, there's no reason for him to die.
That video is fucking pathetic, I mean he's a nice guy but he's the biggest loser on the planet...It takes one to know one cause this tool live 15mins from my crib, and my buddy went to school with him
Poor guy. Get's just enough attention to encourage him to keep at it, not enough to make any money other than mouth fucking guys.
Oh lawwwd, you try to look 1 percent as good as Derek whilst having 4 hours of dialysis a day
He is doing in center Dialysis and he says 4 hours which means he's in end stage renal failure...as in there is no function left.Most IN CENTER Dialysis patients dont last longer than 5 years. The 3 times a week harsh schedule takes a toll on the heart. ( + most dialysis patients are also old)
Derek is very lucky he is a bodybuilder with so much muscle mass. If he was a normal person this kidney disease would have eaten through his twink body years ago, thank god his immune system and internal organs are stronger due to his regimented life as an iron warrior.
Many an Iron Warrior have been told by many a doctor that their gargantuan muscle mass saved them from what would have surely killed the average man.
Or when they come down with pneumonia and go from a ripped 280 lb to a soft pudgy 190 lb in the hospital after 3 weeks. It's because of their muscle, if they were normal the pneumonia certainly would have claimed them at 68 lb after two weeks. It's fucking medicine, it's science, you don't debate that shit, brah.
Do you tink it's one of those things they just "say", like when someones dying of terminal cancer they say "You are so brave" or you "are so much stronger than anyone I've met", if they get a bodybuilder it's like "you are sooo big and strong"
