text: Home Culture I Found One Drop: Can I Be Black Now? Race Manners: Time for a racial gut check. Has your African-American ancestor really changed anything? By: Jenée Desmond-Harris Posted: May 1 2013 12:17 AM 0 Generic image (iStockphoto) (The Root ) -- "I recently availed myself of my university's online resources and did some genealogical digging about my white conservative family. It turns out that one of our ancestors was an African-American slave who passed as white. His is an incredibly powerful story about a dark chapter in our nation's history, and I believe that it is important that his suffering be remembered. I thought that my family would also be excited about this new information, but instead the responses ranged from rejection to contempt. "Despite that, I've embraced this revelation and started to study African-American history. I'm proud to be part black and want to learn as much as I can about this part of me, but here's my quandary: Do I check on forms that I am both Caucasian and African American? I technically qualify, according to the Office of Management and Budget definition, which states that ' "Black or African American" refers to a person having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa,' but I don't look black and didn't grow up in African-American culture. "Do I check both, and come across as a liar to those who don't know my history? Or do I check just white, and feel like a self-loathing racist (just like my family)?" --Suddenly African American First, I congratulate you on developing a perspective different from that of your relatives, who sound horrible. If everyone thought as seriously as you do about his or her public and private statements about race, we'd all be better off. Second, breathe. No, seriously. Calm down and set the forms aside for now. There are options other than "liar" and "self-loathing racist." You don't have to be either. Let's put your question in perspective, and see whether there's a different one you should be asking instead. (Spoiler alert: Yes.) Identity Is Complicated -- Welcome to Being American Your ancestral discovery is new to you, but you're not the first person with an extended family tree that's more complicated than meets the eye. 23andme.com researchers told The Root that the average African American is 22 percent European and that "3 percent to 4 percent of people likely to consider themselves as all 'white' have some African ancestry -- between 0.5 percent and 5 percent." So, while having a person or two in your lineage who doesn't mirror the way you identify yourself isn't as common for people who identify as white, it's certainly not something with which Americans haven't grappled (or chosen not to grapple with) before.

Insomnia is a disorder that can make it hard to fall asleep, hard to stay asleep, or both. With insomnia, you usually awaken feeling unrefreshed, which takes a toll on your ability to function during the day. Insomnia can sap not only your energy level and mood but also your health, work performance and quality of life.
How much sleep is enough varies from person to person. Most adults need seven to eight hours a night. Many adults experience insomnia at some point, but some people have long-term (chronic) insomnia.
You don't have to put up with sleepless nights. Simple changes in your daily habits can help.
Insomnia symptoms may include:
- Difficulty falling asleep at night
- Awakening during the night
- Awakening too early
- Not feeling well rested after a night's sleep
- Daytime fatigue or sleepiness
- Irritability, depression or anxiety
- Difficulty paying attention or focusing on tasks
- Increased errors or accidents
- Tension headaches
- Gastrointestinal symptoms
- Ongoing worries about sleep
Someone with insomnia will often take 30 minutes or more to fall asleep and may get only six or fewer hours of sleep for three or more nights a week.
When to see a doctor
If insomnia makes it hard for you to function during the day, see your doctor to determine what might be the cause of your sleep problem and how it can be treated. If your doctor thinks you could have a sleep disorder, you might be referred to a sleep center for special testing.
Common causes of insomnia include:
- Stress. Concerns about work, school, health or family can keep your mind active at night, making it difficult to sleep. Stressful life events, such as the death or illness of a loved one, divorce or a job loss, may lead to insomnia.
- Anxiety. Everyday anxieties as well as more-serious anxiety disorders may disrupt your asleep.
- Depression. You might either sleep too much or have trouble sleeping if you're depressed. This may be due to chemical imbalances in your brain or because worries that accompany depression may keep you from relaxing enough to fall asleep. Insomnia often accompanies other mental health disorders as well.
- Medications. Many prescription drugs can interfere with sleep, including some antidepressants, heart and blood pressure medications, allergy medications, stimulants (such as Ritalin) and corticosteroids. Many over-the-counter (OTC) medications, including some pain medication combinations, decongestants and weight-loss products, contain caffeine and other stimulants. Antihistamines may initially make you groggy, but they can worsen urinary problems, causing you to get up to urinate more during the night.
- Caffeine, nicotine and alcohol. Coffee, tea, cola and other caffeine-containing drinks are well-known stimulants. Drinking coffee in the late afternoon and later can keep you from falling asleep at night. Nicotine in tobacco products is another stimulant that can cause insomnia. Alcohol is a sedative that may help you fall asleep, but it prevents deeper stages of sleep and often causes you to awaken in the middle of the night.
- Medical conditions. If you have chronic pain, breathing difficulties or a need to urinate frequently, you might develop insomnia. Conditions linked with insomnia include arthritis, cancer, heart failure, lung disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), overactive thyroid, stroke, Parkinson disease and Alzheimer's disease. Making sure that your medical conditions are well treated may help with your insomnia. If you have arthritis, for example, taking a pain reliever before bed may help you sleep better.
- Change in your environment or work schedule. Travel or working a late or early shift can disrupt your body's circadian rhythms, making it difficult to sleep. Your circadian rhythms act as internal clocks, guiding such things as your sleep-wake cycle, metabolism and body temperature.
- Poor sleep habits. Habits that help promote good sleep are called sleep hygiene. Poor sleep hygiene includes an irregular sleep schedule, stimulating activities before bed, an uncomfortable sleep environment and use of your bed for activities other than sleep or sex.
- 'Learned' insomnia. This may occur when you worry excessively about not being able to sleep well and try too hard to fall asleep. Most people with this condition sleep better when they're away from their usual sleep environment or when they don't try to sleep, such as when they're watching TV or reading.
- Eating too much late in the evening. Having a light snack before bedtime is OK, but eating too much may cause you to feel physically uncomfortable while lying down, making it difficult to get to sleep. Many people also experience heartburn, a backflow of acid and food from the stomach into the esophagus after eating. This uncomfortable feeling may keep you awake.
Insomnia and aging
Insomnia becomes more common with age. As you get older, changes can occur that may affect your sleep. You may experience:
- A change in sleep patterns. Sleep often becomes less restful as you age, and you may find that noise or other changes in your environment are more likely to wake you as you get older. With age, your internal clock often advances, which means you get tired earlier in the evening and wake up earlier in the morning. But older people generally still need the same amount of sleep as younger people do.
- A change in activity. You may be less physically or socially active. Activity helps promote a good night's sleep. You may also be more likely to take a daily nap, which also can interfere with sleep at night.
A change in health. The chronic pain of conditions such as arthritis or back problems as well as depression, anxiety and stress can interfere with sleep. Older men often develop noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland (benign prostatic hyperplasia), which can cause the need to urinate frequently, interrupting sleep. In women, hot flashes that accompany menopause can be equally disruptive.
Other sleep-related disorders, such as sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome, also become more common with age. Sleep apnea causes you to stop breathing periodically throughout the night. Restless legs syndrome causes unpleasant sensations in your legs and an almost irresistible desire to move them, which may prevent you from falling asleep.
- Increased use of medications. Older people use more prescription drugs than younger people do, which increases the chance of insomnia caused by a medication.
Sleep problems may be a concern for children and teenagers as well. Some children and teenagers simply have trouble getting to sleep or resist a regular bedtime because their internal clocks are more delayed. They want to go to bed later and sleep later in the morning.
Risk factors
Nearly everyone has an occasional sleepless night. But your risk of insomnia is greater if:
- You're a woman. Women are much more likely to experience insomnia. Hormonal shifts during the menstrual cycle and in menopause may play a role. During menopause, night sweats and hot flashes often disturb sleep.
- You're over age 60. Because of changes in sleep patterns, insomnia increases with age.
- You have a mental health disorder. Many disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, disrupt sleep. Early-morning awakening is a classic symptom of depression.
- You're under a lot of stress. Stressful events can cause temporary insomnia, and major or long-lasting stress, such as the death of a loved one or a divorce, can lead to chronic insomnia. Being poor or unemployed also increases the risk.
- You work night or changing shifts. Working at night or frequently changing shifts increases your risk of insomnia.
- You travel long distances. Jet lag from traveling across multiple time zones can cause insomnia.
Sleep is as important to your health as a healthy diet and regular exercise. Whatever your reason for sleep loss, insomnia can affect you both mentally and physically. People with insomnia report a lower quality of life compared with people who are sleeping well.
Complications of insomnia may include:
- Lower performance on the job or at school
- Slowed reaction time while driving and higher risk of accidents
- Psychiatric problems, such as depression or an anxiety disorder
- Overweight or obesity
- Poor immune system function
- Increased risk and severity of long-term diseases, such as high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes
Preparing for your appointment
If you're having sleep problems, start by talking to your family doctor or a general practitioner. Because appointments can be brief, and there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared for your appointment. Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and what to expect from your doctor.
What you can do
- Be aware of any pre-appointment requests. At the time you make the appointment, be sure to ask if there's anything you need to do in advance, such as keeping a sleep diary. In a sleep diary, you record your sleep patterns — bedtime, number of hours slept, nighttime awakenings and awake time — as well as your daily routine, naps and how you feel during the day. You may be asked to record a sleep diary for one to two weeks.
- Write down any symptoms you're experiencing, including any that may seem unrelated to the reason for which you scheduled the appointment.
- Write down key personal information, including new or ongoing health problems, major stresses or recent life changes.
- Make a list of all medications, vitamins or supplements that you're taking. Be sure to let your doctor know about anything you've taken to help you sleep.
- Take your bed partner along, if possible. Your doctor may want to talk to your partner to learn more about how much and how well you're sleeping.
- Write down questions to ask your doctor.
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. For insomnia, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
- What is likely causing my insomnia?
- Other than the most likely cause, what are other possible reasons for my insomnia?
- What's the best treatment?
- I have these other health conditions. How can I best manage them together?
- Should I go to a sleep clinic? What will that cost, and will my insurance cover it?
- Are there any brochures or other printed material that I can take with me? What websites do you recommend?
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment.
What to expect from your doctor
A key part of the evaluation of insomnia is a detailed history, meaning your doctor will ask you many questions. These may include:
- How often do you have trouble sleeping, and when did the insomnia begin?
- How long does it take you to fall asleep?
- How often do you awaken at night, and how long does it take you to fall back to sleep?
- What time do you go to bed at night and wake up in the morning? Is this different on weekends?
- How many hours a night do you sleep?
- Do you snore or wake up choking for breath?
- Do you feel refreshed when you wake up?
- Are you tired during the day?
- Do you doze off or have trouble staying awake while sitting quietly or driving?
- Do you nap during the day?
- What is your bedtime routine?
- Where do you sleep? What is the noise level, temperature and lighting in this room?
- What do you eat and drink in the evening?
- Do you use tobacco or drink alcohol?
- Do you take any medications or sleeping pills before bed?
- Have you experienced stressful events recently, such as divorce, loss of a job or increased demands at work?
- Have you ever used sleeping pills?
- What type of work do you do?
- What is your exercise routine?
- Do you worry about falling asleep or staying asleep?
- Do you have any family members with sleep problems?
- Have you traveled recently?
- What medications do you take regularly?
Tests and diagnosis
In addition to asking you a number of questions, your doctor may have you complete a questionnaire to determine your sleep-wake pattern and your level of daytime sleepiness. You may also be asked to keep a sleep diary for a couple of weeks, if you haven't already done so.
Your doctor will do a physical exam to look for signs of other problems that may be causing insomnia. Occasionally, a blood test may be done to check for thyroid problems or other conditions that can cause insomnia.
If the cause of your insomnia isn't clear, or you have signs of another sleep disorder, such as sleep apnea or restless legs syndrome, you may need to spend a night at a sleep center. Tests are done to monitor and record a variety of body activities while you sleep, including brain waves, breathing, heartbeat, eye movements and body movements.
Treatments and drugs
Changing your sleep habits and addressing any underlying causes of insomnia can restore restful sleep for many people. Good sleep hygiene — simple steps such as keeping the same bedtime and arising time — promotes sound sleep and daytime alertness. If these measures don't work, your doctor may recommend medications to help with relaxation and sleep.
Behavior therapies
Behavioral treatments teach you new sleep behaviors and ways to improve your sleeping environment. Behavior therapies are equally or more effective than are sleep medications. Behavior therapies are generally recommended as the first line of treatment for people with insomnia.
Behavior therapies include:
- Education about good sleeping habits. Sleep hygiene teaches habits that promote good sleep.
- Relaxation techniques. Progressive muscle relaxation, biofeedback and breathing exercises are ways to reduce anxiety at bedtime. These strategies help you control your breathing, heart rate, muscle tension and mood.
- Cognitive behavioral therapy. This involves replacing worries about not sleeping with positive thoughts. Cognitive behavioral therapy can be taught through one-on-one counseling or in group sessions.
- 'Stimulus control.' This means limiting the time you spend awake in bed and associating your bed and bedroom only with sleep and sex.
- Sleep restriction. This treatment decreases the time you spend in bed, causing partial sleep deprivation, which makes you more tired the next night. Once your sleep has improved, your time in bed is gradually increased.
- Light therapy. If you fall asleep too early and then awaken too early, you can use light to push back your internal clock. During times of the year when it's light outside in the evenings, you go outside or get light via a medical-grade light box.
Taking prescription sleeping pills, such as zolpidem (Ambien), eszopiclone (Lunesta), zaleplon (Sonata) or ramelteon (Rozerem), also may help you get to sleep. However, in rare cases, these medications may cause severe allergic reactions, facial swelling and unusual behaviors, such as driving or preparing and eating food while asleep. Side effects of prescription sleeping medications are often more pronounced in older people and may include excessive drowsiness, impaired thinking, night wandering, agitation and balance problems.
Doctors generally don't recommend relying on prescription sleeping pills for more than a few weeks, but several newer medications are approved for indefinite use. However, some of these medications are habit-forming.
If you have depression as well as insomnia, your doctor may prescribe an antidepressant with a sedative effect, such as trazodone, doxepin or mirtazapine (Remeron).
Over-the-counter sleep aids
Sleep medications available over-the-counter contain antihistamines that can make you drowsy. But antihistamines may reduce the quality of your sleep, and they can cause side effects, such as daytime sleepiness, dry mouth and blurred vision. These effects may be worse in the elderly.
Lifestyle and home remedies
No matter what your age, insomnia usually is treatable. The key often lies in changes to your routine during the day and when you go to bed. Try these tips:
- Stick to a sleep schedule. Keep your bedtime and wake time consistent from day to day, including on weekends.
- Get out of bed when you're not sleeping. Sleep as much as needed to feel rested, and then get out of bed. If you can't sleep, get out of bed after 20 minutes and do something relaxing, such as reading.
- Avoid trying to sleep. The harder you try, the more awake you'll become. Read or watch television in another room until you become very drowsy, then go to bed to sleep.
- Use your bed and bedroom only for sleeping or sex. Don't read, watch TV, work or eat in bed.
- Find ways to relax. A warm bath before bedtime can help prepare you for sleep. Having your partner give you a massage also may help relax you. Create a relaxing bedtime ritual, such as reading, soft music, breathing exercises, yoga or prayer.
- Avoid or limit naps. Naps can make it harder to fall asleep at night. If you can't get by without one, try to limit a nap to no more than 30 minutes and don't nap after 3 p.m.
- Make your bedroom comfortable for sleep. Close your bedroom door or create a subtle background noise, such as a running fan, to help drown out other noises. Keep your bedroom temperature comfortable, usually cooler than during the day, and dark. Don't keep a computer or TV in your bedroom.
- Exercise and stay active. Get at least 20 to 30 minutes of vigorous exercise daily at least five to six hours before bedtime.
- Avoid or limit caffeine, alcohol and nicotine. Caffeine after lunchtime and using nicotine can keep you from falling asleep at night. Alcohol, while it may initially make you feel sleepy, can cause unrestful sleep and frequent awakenings.
- Avoid large meals and beverages before bed. A light snack is fine, but eating too much late in the evening can interfere with sleep. Drink less before bedtime so that you won't have to urinate as often.
- Check your medications. If you take medications regularly, check with your doctor to see if they may be contributing to your insomnia. Also check the labels of over-the-counter products to see if they contain caffeine or other stimulants, such as pseudoephedrine.
- Don't put up with pain. If a painful condition bothers you, make sure the pain reliever you take is effective enough to control your pain while you're sleeping.
- Hide the bedroom clocks. Set your alarm so that you know when to get up, but then hide all clocks in your bedroom, including your wristwatch and cell phone. The less you know what time it is at night, the better you'll sleep.
Alternative medicine
Many people never visit their doctor for insomnia, and instead try to cope with sleeplessness on their own. Several therapies that may be helpful include:
- Melatonin. This over-the-counter supplement is marketed as a way to help overcome insomnia. Your body naturally produces melatonin, releasing it into your bloodstream in increasing amounts starting at dusk and tapering off toward the morning. Older people seem to have a greater benefit from melatonin, but no convincing evidence exists to prove that melatonin is an effective treatment for insomnia. It's generally considered safe to use melatonin for a few weeks, but the long-term safety of melatonin is unknown. The dosage is usually between 0.3 and 5 milligrams (mg) a day.
- Valerian. This is another dietary supplement that's sold as a sleep aid because it has a mildly sedating effect. But, this supplement hasn't been well studied. In addition, this product has been associated with liver damage in some people, though it's not clear if valerian was the cause of the damage. The recommended dose of valerian is 400 to 900 mg daily with an extract containing 0.4 to 0.6 percent of valerenic acid.
- Acupuncture. During an acupuncture session, a practitioner places numerous thin needles in your skin at specific points on your body. There's some evidence that this practice may be beneficial for people with insomnia.
Be sure to talk with your doctor before taking any herbal supplements or over-the-counter products as some can interact with medications, and others, such as L-tryptophan, may be dangerous on their own.

Good morning on this, the first day of the 2013 signing period. This is also known as national signing day. WVU went to sleep with 24 committed players last night and probably only a little drama to live today. It didn't look as though there would be too many surprises, if any, though that sort of static seems unlikely given the nature of this day and the whims of teenagers and the ways those whims can so easily be influenced.
Anyway, the Mountaineers had already announced 10 signings by 8 a.m. and seven of those were the players already enrolled. The other three were prep players and two were committed sign. That is to say, one jolt already.
I'll keep this running throughout the day, up to and including Dana Holgorsen's 3 p.m. press conference, from which we'll post some videos and interviews afterward.

Jeremy Tyler
S, 6-0, 195, Lithonia, Ga./Martin Luther King HS
Two-year starter for coaches Michael Carson and Rober Freeman at Martin Luther King High … Class 5-A all-state and all-region selection, as well as all-area and all-region as a senior … helped team to an 11-1 overall record, a 9-0 mark in the region and the second round of the state playoffs … played on a defensive unit that allowed 7.7 points a game during the regular season … collected 33 tackles, three tackles for loss, three interceptions and two fumble recoveries … collected five interceptions as a junior … three-star rating from ESPN, rivals, MaxPreps and Scout … ESPN ranks him No. 53 nationally at his position and No. 103 overall in Georgia … rivals ranks him No. 42 nationally at his position and the No. 50-best prospect in Georgia … Georgia postseason Top 80 … has played quarterback, linebacker and every position in the secondary, while at Martin Luther King … played in the Georgia All-Star game and finished with three tackles and an interception … also offered by Ole Miss, Texas Tech and Vanderbilt.
Tyler is the first surprise of the day. He hadn't committed and was down to WVU and Vanderbilt. Pretty good athlete who played all over the secondary and quarterback in high school. And he was busy late in the game, visiting WVU, Vanderbilt and Texas Tech, in order, the past three weekends. Must have been something Robert Gillespie said.
Grant Lingafelter
OL, 6-5, 265, Chagrin Falls, Ohio/Chagrin Falls HS
Played three seasons for coach Mark Iammarino at Chagrin Falls High … member of the Associated Press All-Ohio Division III Third Team in 2012 … helped team to a combined 37-5 record during those seasons, including three Chagrin Valley League championships, one appearance in the state championship, one appearance in the state semifinals and one appearance in the state regional finals … led an offensive line that paved the way for an average of 189.7 rushing yards per game, 5.3 yards per carry and also finished with 36 rushing touchdowns in 2012 … helped the 2011 squad to an average of 197.2 rushing yards per game, 5.1 yard per carry and 33 rushing touchdowns … two-time Northeast Lake All-District honoree … 2012 Cleveland Plain Dealer Offensive All-Star … three-star recruit according to ESPN, rivals, and 247sports … two-star recruit according to Scout … also offered by Cincinnati and Illinois.
Lingafelter is a brute. I wrote about him in today's paper. Nice kid. Mean, mean streak.
"I got picked on a lot this year by the referees because of my size and because they knew who I was," Lingafelter said. "They threw some flags on me that I don't think were flags."
Marcell Lazard
OL, 6-6, 293, Bloomfield N.J./Bloomfield HS
Three-year starter and four-year letterwinner for coach Mike Carter at Bloomfield High … 2012 New Jersey All-State Second Team Offense … 2012 All-Group 5 First Team Offense … helped Bloomfield to a 9-3 overall record and an appearance in the New Jersey state championship game … 2011 All-Group 4 Second Team Offense … two-time All-Essex County First Team Offense … 2010 All-Essex County Third Team Offense … three-star rating by rivals and Scout … position ranking of No. 33 nationally by rivals and No. 42 by Scout … ranked as the No. 3 best offensive lineman in New Jersey and No. 13 best recruit in the state by rivals … ESPN ranks him No. 33 nationally at his position and the No. 15-best prospect in his state … Tom Lemming Top 25 among offensive tackles … New Jersey postseason Top 30 … member of the East's Top 100 … played in the 2012 Chesapeake Bowl, featuring senior standouts from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C. and West Virginia … also offered by Boston College, Florida, Maryland, Miami, Ohio State, South Carolina, Michigan and Virginia.
Lazard is one of four and maybe eventually five linemen in the class and he's been on the line since April with a pretty strong list of suitors.
Mario Alford
WR, 5-9, 175, Greenville, Ga./Georgia Military College
Played two seasons for coach Bert Williams at Georgia Military College … led the team in rushing with 541 yards on 52 carries with six touchdowns, averaging 10.4 yards per carry in 2012 … added eight receptions for 199 yards and two touchdowns … recorded 33 carries for 226 rushing yards and four touchdowns in 2011 … caught 10 passes for 122 yards and one touchdown … ran for 136 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries against Iowa Western … had 10 carries for 136 yards, four catches for 129 yards and scored four touchdowns in a win over Snow College … named all-state honorable mention quarterback at Greenville High (Ga.) … also a star on the track team, winning the 100-meter state championship in 10.77 … four-star recruit according to ESPN and 247sports … three-star recruit according to rivals and Scout … rivals No. 82 Junior College Postseason Top 100 … 247sports No. 1 Georgia junior college recruit … 247sports No. 1 junior college wide receiver … 247sports No. 11 junior college recruit … also offered by Arizona, Cincinnati, Kansas, Ole Miss and Texas Tech.
And another surprise for WVU, though I think WVU knew this one might be coming. He was hitched to Arizona, but he visited WVU upon Tony Gibson's hiring and made up his mind last week, though he managed to keep it quiet, perhaps at WVU's request. So, there. Gibby already paying dividends. The Mountaineers will be pleased with this one. Fast kid, good with the ball in his hands and ready to play. He's also friends with GMC linebacker Brandon Golson, so keep an eye on that as a possible surprise, too.
Daryl Worley
S, 6-2, 190, Philadelphia, Pa./William Penn Charter HS

In case you were interested, this was a Jake Spavital guy. As I understand things, when Jake left for Texas A&M, he called his recruits who were committed to WVU and had them reaffirm their commitment. If they were on the fence, he tried to push them onto WVU's side. Good dude.
Darrien Howard
LB, 6-2, 250, Dayton, Ohio/Chaminade-Julienne HS
Three-year starter for coach Marcus Colvin at Dayton's Chaminade-Julienne High … earned Division IV All-Ohio first-team honors in 2012 … amassed 75 tackles and scored five touchdowns on offense as a senior … rushed for 131 yards and totaled 77 yards receiving, helping team to a 6-4 record … four-star rating by ESPN, rivals and Scout … No. 241 on ESPN's Top 300 team … rated as the No. 10 best inside linebacker by rivals and the No. 12 best by Scout … No. 17 on the rivals postseason Top 75 … ranked as the No. 9 best inside linebacker by ESPN … 2010 National Underclassmen (NUC) Columbus linebacker MVP … NUC Ultimate 100 linebacker MVP … collected 154 tackles, eight tackles for loss, five sacks, three interceptions and four fumble recoveries as a junior … named Division IV All-Ohio first team selection and District Player of

Quietly, some people believe this is the most exciting recruit in the class.
Isaac McDonald
S, 6-5, 205, Hialeah, Fla./Champagnat Catholic HS
Two-year starter for coach Mike Tunsil at Champagnat Catholic High … two-time Miami Herald All-Dade County second-team linebacker … as a senior, he finished with 68 tackles, including 18 tackles for loss and seven sacks … also had 331 yards receiving and five touchdowns … helped lead Champagnat to the first round of the state playoffs … as a junior, he finished with 75 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, five sacks and two interceptions … No. 151 on Florida Top 200 … No. 21 on Miami Herald's Miami-Dade County Top 25 football recruits … three-star recruit by ESPN, rivals and scout and 247sports … played for Team USA U-19 … also offered by Clemson, Louisville, Mississippi State, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Oregon, South Carolina and Stanford.
Stone Underwood
OL, 6-4, 285, Brookhaven, Miss./Copiah-Lincoln CC
Started all 12 games for Glenn Davis at Copiah-Lincoln CC in 2012 … All-NJCAA Region 23 First Team … All-Mississippi Association of Community/Junior Colleges First Team … helped team to a 9-3 record and an appearance in the Mississippi Bowl … anchored an offensive line that averaged 102.4 rushing yards per game … spent 2011 at Southeastern Louisiana … previously attended Brookhaven High … named one of the top 125 seniors in Mississippi by the Jackson Clarion Ledger … listed as one of the top 16 prospects by the Brookhaven Daily Leader … selected to play in the Mississippi-Alabama All-Star Game … named a first-team member on the MAC Class 5A and Region 3-5A MVP team … a member of the Daily Leader All-Lincoln County team … named Clarion Ledger All-State Second Team and Scout … two-star recruit according to 247sports … also offered by Massachusetts and Memphis.
This is quite likely your starting center next fall.
d'Vante Henry
LB, 6-5, 205, Moore, Okla./Arizona Western College
Played two seasons for coach Tom Minnick at Arizona Western College … helped team to a combined 19-3 record, including a win in the El Toro Bowl in 2012 … led 2012 team in tackles (55), solo tackles (23) and assisted tackles (32) … also registered 7.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, two interceptions and three pass breakups … 2012 All-Arizona Community College Athletic Conference First Team Defense … 2012 All-Western States Football League First Team Defense … made 26 tackles with eight tackles for loss and four sacks in 2011 … previously attended Southmoore High, registering 65 tackles as a senior, including five sacks … led Southmoore to a 10-3 mark as a junior … All-VYPE Oklahoma Second Team … The Oklahoman's All-Big City Roster Honorable Mention … Tulsa World 6A Honorable Mention … also lined up as a receiver and running back on offense … finished third at 2010 Oklahoma 6A Championships with a time of 49.34 in the 400 meters and was the anchor in the state champion 4×100 and 4×400 relay teams … three-star recruit according to rivals, Scout, ESPN and 247sports … rivals No. 23 Junior College Postseason Top 100 … 247sports No. 3 junior college outside linebacker … 247sports No. 5 Arizona junior college recruit … also offered by Iowa State, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Oregon State, Texas A&M, Texas Tech and Utah.
Arguably the best athlete in the class. Guy does standing backflips. One day in practice at Arizona Western a football went over the fence and onto the baseball field. Henry went to get it by hurdling the fence and nobody thought much of it until they realized it was the OUTFIELD FENCE. He can be a factor off the edge … because, as he shows in the anchor leg below, he's fast.
Brandon Golson
LB, 6-3, 220, Fork Union, Va./Georgia Military College
Played two seasons for coach Bert Williams at Georgia Military College … played in only four games in 2012 due to injury, registering six tackles, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries … recorded 24 tackles with five tackles for loss, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries in 2011 … named the Orangeburg Times & Democrat Defensive Player of the Year in 2009 and was a first team all-area selection at Calhoun County High … played just two seasons of football for coachWalt Wilson … logged 113 tackles and 30 sacks with four forced fumbles, earning all-state honors as selected by The State … helped Calhoun County to the state 1-A semifinals as a senior … selected to play in the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas and the Offense-Defense All-American Bowl … logged 78 tackles and 18 sacks in just six games as a junior … three-star recruit according to rivals, Scout, ESPN and 247sports … rivals No. 35 Junior College Postseason Top 100 … 247sports No. 3 Georgia junior college recruit … 247sports No. 4 junior college linebacker … 247sports No. 48 junior college recruit … also offered by Arizona, Kansas, Kansas State, South Carolina and Texas A&M.
And there's another surprise and a pretty good indication you're going over 25 today. Golson and Tyler weren't necessarily a package deal, but there were thoughts they'd go somewhere together. I'm guessing this guy is ready to go. Grew up in Orangeburg and spent a year at Fork Union and two years at GMC. That's the persons of the guys Dana and his staff were looking for — mature, competitive, not entitled. Gibby's doing flips like Henry. Heyo!
Marvin Gross
DE, 6-4, 225, Baltimore, Md./Dunbar HS
Played for coach Ben Eaton at Dunbar High … first-team consensus all-state and small school all-state in Maryland … two-year sack total of 52 … three-time Baltimore Sun All-Met First Team … collected 21 sacks, 75 total tackles, 42 tackles for loss and four forced fumbles as a senior … helped Dunbar to a 13-1 record in 2012, a 9-0 league mark and a state championship … member of three straight state championship teams at Dunbar … finished junior campaign with 70 tackles, 31 sacks … invited to play in the 2013 Max Emfinger All-American Bowl Game Classic … rated

How serious is WVU JUCO recruiting? A JUCO punter! And how serious was the JUCO punter about getting recruited? A JUCO punter highlight tape!
Ronald Carswell
WR, 6-0, 180, Macon, Ga./Itawamba Community College
Former University of Alabama player who played one season for coach Joe Williams at Itawamba Community College, leading the team to a 6-3 record … finished the season with 44 receptions for 429 yards and one touchdown … brought down five receptions for 98 yards against Mississippi Delta … previously played for Westside High, where he was ranked as the No. 35 player in the state of Georgia by the Atlanta Journal Constitution … 2009 4A All-State selection by the Atlanta Journal Constitution … caught 41 passes for 715 yards and seven touchdowns as a senior … hauled in 34 receptions for 627 yards and three scores in 2008, while compiling 33 catches for 391 yards and two touchdowns in 2006 … three-star prospect according to 247sports; No. 25 junior college wide receiver … also offered by Kentucky.
Not sure if this is a relief or what, but I believe Carswell was supposed to be a January enrollee. He didn't make it, despite just one semester at Itawamba. Sometimes those January enrollees who don't enroll in January end up elsewhere. Here he is, though, and Carswell has three years of eligibility left, too.
So we're in a holding patter now. Gibson has signed with WVU and will send. It appears Jacky Marcellus and Florida cornerback Marquion Lane, a surprise or sort, have also signed and will soon send. That would bring the count to 27 with running back DeShawn Coleman sort of floating around out there.
Figure he signs. That's 28 and you're worried, right? Well, those seven early signees count toward the 2012 class and by my count, WVU had 18 players in the 2012 class — five enrolled early and six more didn't make it to campus. So the seven in school fill the 2012 class — Thought: Does that explain whatever happened to Carswell? — and, technically, WVU has 20 or 21, depending on Coleman, for 2013. That could leave room for four of five January enrollees — and figure not everyone from the 2013 class is going to make it.
Still, if Gibson, Marcellus, Lane and Coleman sign, that's 28 in the signing period and WVU is done, per bylaw 220.127.116.11.
2:57 pm: And we're back. WVU's official release has 25 names — Alford, Benton, Carswell, Christian, Gibson, Golson, Greaves, Gross, Hendy, Howard, Hyman, Lazard, Lingafelter, McDonald, O'Toole, Rawlins, Shorts, Smallwood, Smith, Tezeno, Tyler Underwood, Wellman, White and Worley.
No sign yet of Coleman, Lane and Marcellus.
I'll effort an official declaration for d'Vante/D'Vante Henry. It's used both ways on the release.

Many of the GBs ahead of you have already retired, only 518 GBs have continued and made it to 3M! Doesn't look like Pat is going to give up the #1 spot anytime soon, even after a near fatal motorcycle accident in April 2012! So keep going! You're doing great! Keep going like a PRO Winnipeg GasBuddy! Have nice weekend! Thanks! Ron
I know how you feel as I was out on an ambulance call & got back to late the other month to report too
2.7 MM points & 10years of good GB work .... ...Be my Winnipeg gas buddy
Wow, you are near the top of the totem pole for GB age. Saw your picture at a mutual buddies site. Would you please be my newest buddy from Winnipeg ?? OK?? David......... QQ
Thanks for becoming my newest buddy. Hope that you have a great weekend. Always glad to help a buddy out, too bad it's late this time. Oh, we have a local museum, Pima Air and Space Museum, that has lots of old military aircraft, experimental aircraft, old Presidential planes and etc. Aircraft last a long time in the desert environment. Even the USAF has a "boneyard" where they store surplus aircraft. I liked your pictures of the Lancaster. Later, Warren {:D)
Just FYI. If you miss a day due to no fault of your own, like power failure, loss of internet or even being hospitalized, for instance, resume posting ASAP and send a "Member Message" to GB Mgmt. requesting restoration of your consecutive days. They will do it up to three times. Warren :o)
Hi, BIG congratulations on having the dedication to post for 200 consecutive days. WOW!! Keep up the great work and Good Luck in the future! Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
Sounds like a rough time Tim, our prayers are with you, Henriette and Bill/

Question by Bruno 1 1530 · Feb 21 '12 at 07:03 PM · hunting hunter bjork awesomeness survival
I'm very interested in hunting, but I have no experience at all! Who here hunts? Is it difficult? Does it pay off? Where do you hunt? Cuz I wanna look like these guys :
In other words, just tell me about your experiences with hunting!
Bruno, are you interested in hunting with spears? Those men in the photo don't look as though they hunt with Winchesters or Remingtons.
I enjoy front porch hunting. It's easy to bag small varmints with a rifle rest!Total Views:

Ok, assuming you're in middle America- most people hunt with guns. You will not look like that just walking/standing around with a gun, which is what hunting mostly is nowadays.
There are bow hunting seasons for a number of animals, predominantly deer in the midwest. Bow hunting takes quite a bit of skill. You definitely would want to start with archery lessons and work your way up to actually going out for a hunting season.
Hunting is not free. You cannot legally kill many kinds of animals for food whenever or wherever you want. Lots of restrictions, permits (with fees of course), safety courses, etc. Each state has its own division or department of natural resources or wildlife control, and thus each state has various seasons, fees, restrictions, etc.
You can find animal farms or sanctuaries where you pay big bucks to go out with a "guide" in a fenced-in area and kill bred animals specifically for that purpose. To me, that does not qualify as hunting.
Hunting can be "paleo" IF you have a large area of land to track animals and you do it with a bow, atlatl, spear, etc. Modern hunting, aka the kind of hunting I've done- deer, geese, pheasants- is finding a farmer with forestland or pasture that will allow you to hunt on his land/water (for a fee or some beer), buying a tag or permit, toting around a gun at 5am in hunter orange (or hopping in a tiny boat on a marsh) and hoping you aren't too loud to scare any animals away. And if you sit tight in a blind or tree stand, hoping you get lucky and one happens to walk by.
Edit: how difficult is it? Depends on how much time you spend at the range shooting at distance targets and moving targets. Shooting clays can help you get better with hunting birds. But honestly, has a lot to do with luck and persistence.
Answer by boisegrok 153 · Feb 21 '12 at 07:55 PM
Well, where do you live?
If you are in the east or midwest it can be not really an active pursuit for big game. You can get into the woods and move slowly and get a good work out but most guys sit in a blind. You can chase grouse, woodcock and quail in the woods or pheasants in fields for a good paleo workout. Ducks and geese can be quite a paleo workout. I hunted a field that was solid mud and we carried out our blinds, 4 dozen full body decoys and all of our gear. Most people couldn't do it. Sure there are lots of people that take an atv or even a boat but if you want to work hard you can do it.
If you live in the west well it can be really hard. It isn't as easy as walking out and shooting something from your truck. There are plenty of guys who do that but they usually aren't as successful and especially not on trophy game. In the west for example in the great state of Idaho a large portion like 75%+ is public land and it as up and down as anywhere in the world.
My normal big game hunt has me in between 7-15 miles on foot carrying a 35+ pound pack. I am setting up camp, gathering wood, and usually glassing from vantage points to find animals.
That is just big game not to mention chasing upland birds like chukar on sheer cliffs that will make your heart jump into your throat.
So like anything else you can make it easy or hard. I chose to be outside and work my butt off.
Not to mention how paleo it is to pack out wild meat from the wilderness and eat it. I use everything from knee bones, bear fat, liver, heart etc.
Just get out there and start hunting and learn along the way. Don't get into the trap of driving around all day in a truck or in a car and it is a rewarding experience!
Answer by none 16365 · Feb 21 '12 at 07:43 PM
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! I live in the HEART of huntin' country and these dudes and dudettes generally do NOT look like those guys. They mostly hunt with guns but some use bows. Way too many use ATVs as well. Many many hunt on private land, like farm fields (get permission).
My husband is a new-ish hunter. He has gone for elk and deer using a rifle. He is committed to hiking in the forest as well and not hunting private land. He has "shared" a deer with a friend and I'm not sure which of them actually got the shot off, lots of big talk and I just tuned them out after awhile. So, he has not had much luck with the big game - the more sporting you are the less chance you may have.
However, my husband is really into bird hunting - shotgun. He brings home lots of grouse, pheasant, geese, duck and turkeys. I do all the plucking and cleaning (once you get the hang it's pretty easy). The thing I like about birds is that you have many chances to get many animals, also if the bird (especially diver ducks) has a funky taste, you don't have a huge commitment to eating pounds and pounds of meat with regret. One animal = one meal so that's pretty easy.
Like Melissa said, go through your hunter safety course. Watch lots of Youtubes on hunting - particularly cleaning and dressing because you are going to spend A LOT of time doing that unless you plan to drop the animal at a processor. Get a buddy and go with him/her your first few seasons.
I am going to start hunting as well once the kids get older and can some with. Oh, btw if you have kids who are old enough, in my state they can get deer tags that are much more open than the adult tags. Just a thought. In my area kids start hunting at about age 9 I think.
My husband's hunting buddy is his dentist - Dr. Hunt! Isn't that a riot. Dr. Hunt??? Hahaha.
Answer by Touch the Clouds 3796 · Feb 22 '12 at 01:02 AM
I enjoy hunting quite a lot. I think that there is a big difference in what we tend to think of as hunting these days and what it meant to people like the ones in that picture. It's become more of a sport these days, which isn't an altogether bad thing. We have far too many people for large segments of the population to practice regular subsistence hunting--there is a reason many HG were nomadic, you may not kill all the game in a particular area but constant pressure will cause them to move or become more wary and difficult to kill.
I'm for humane and ethical practices and I use a rifle almost exclusively, if only to limit wastage on wounded game that can't be found. I own a handmade wooden long-bow hewn from local yew-wood but it's a lot different to expect me to use that today when the area I hunt is open to rifle hunting for half the year. Game animal habits are going to be somewhat different due to the local practices; i.e.-less cautious at the beginning of a short season, more cautious after an influx of hunters over a period of time, deer in people's yards where they are safe may be indifferent to people while deer hundreds of yards away will flee at the first sight of a truck where road-hunting is common, etc...
Where I'm at the majority of the hunting is for subsistence and the pressure is pretty high. I like to hike far from the roads as the further I go, the more success I have. Although I don't make it arbitrarily difficult--I'm not going to pass on one five minutes from the truck because I want a better work out. I feel I've paid my dues packing out meat through terrain that can be difficult to navigate without the added burden. For me hunting can be one of the most frustrating and therefore; most rewarding experiences there is. The conflicting emotions you feel add to the experience--thrill and enjoyment of success, remorse for taking a life, gratitude, camaraderie, pride etc...
My advice is to find people who hunt where you want to hunt and the way you want to hunt and learn from them, hunter safety classes and firearm/archery training as well as learning your local laws and regulations is a given.
Answer by Bread-Eating Beelzebub 56034 · Feb 21 '12 at 07:16 PM
Well, it's certainly not as hard as it was for the people in that picture. That's the magic of guns. I'd just look up your local hunting department, usually the Dept. of Environmental Conservation and see if there are any safety courses near you. Those certainly won't get you to the point where you can hunt, but they give you a good idea of the challenges and might help you meet people who can teach you more. You can also look for someone near you who does hunting courses. I think a membership to a gun or archery range is also a must. You need to practice that at least once a month, if not more. You also need to have the time to scout out locations before the season starts. I didn't have time to do that last season because I was moving, so I didn't even bother going out. However, one of my classmates, John Durant, got a deer.
Answer by KenS 2350 · Feb 22 '12 at 01:48 AM
I'm chomping at the bit to learn how to hunt. I know guns are easier, but I'm more interested in bowhunting.
I recently mentioned my growing interest in this to my mother, and she quickly informed me that my uncle (who I haven't seen in years) is really into bowhunting and does it quite often. Supposedly his kids are only 16 and 18 years old and have won a bunch of bow competitions and such. I've been thinking about getting in touch to see if they would let me tag along on a hunt sometime, and/or teach me how to shoot a bow.
I've also already been bugging one of my other aunts and her husband who fish a lot to take me with them.
Answer by Joshua 1 87 · Feb 21 '12 at 07:38 PM
I hunt, with a gun although I've considered learning archery.
I have been dumb enough to bring a pedometer, and realized that I log about 17 miles/day of cross-country walking during my last hunt. I usually hike about a week pre-season to look for evidence of oft-traveled areas are for the critters I'm looking to shoot, then upon season start I will hike out to that spot about an hour before light, sit there until lunch, walk back to my truck for lunch, and then hike around for the rest of the day looking.
I've only gotten piggies, have yet to get a deer. First time was during the early morning, second time was afternoon. Both pigs were 75-80lbs and slaughtered out to about 30-40lbs of usable meat... but the added benefit of hunting is that you get hunter friends, who will most likely share kills with you, especially the offal.
What's with the bjork tag anyway?
Answer by FED at LiveCaveman.com 19538 · Feb 21 '12 at 10:38 PM
From "Tanzania: Hunting with Africa's Last Full Time Hunter-Gatherers"
"Now lest you imagine that the kill would be a dramatic scene such as that you see on the movies, think again. In the movie scene, the heroic hunter gatherer takes a measured and cool aim at the majestic beast. He draws back his bow with cool precision and fires a precise kill shot, with the dramatic poignant death of the beast ensuing. Reality, on the other hand, is more likely to be a drawn out affair. One can expect a frenzied, bloody and gory mess. Probably the first arrow shot would hit somewhere on the shoulder or leg or midsection of the poor animal. The victim would then howl, squeal, or scream in blind panic and fear, and become quite dangerous. It would be cornered, fighting for its life and uncomprehending of the type of wound it was sustaining. It has no instinctive built-in behavior or knowledge of arrow piercings.
Eventually, the proud hunter gathers will take more and more shots at the wounded, cornered, terrified and eventually exhausted animal. When the victim looks like a porcupine, with perhaps several arrows sticking out of it, and collapses, one of the brave hunters will come upon it and do the final kill, with a spear if available, a club, or an arrow shot at very close range.For example, I once watched a group of Huli Wigman in the highlands of Papua New Guinea take down a large pig with arrows and spears. The 4 proud warriors surrounded the pig. One took his shot and hit the pig on the upper thigh. The pig shrieked an ear piercing squeal and charged the hunter that inflicted the wound. The hunter, quite understandably, scrambled up a nearby tree like a scared rabbit.
After about 10 minutes of the other hunters baiting the scared and frenzied pig, the animal turned and started to walk away in a confused state with the arrow still sticking out of his thigh. Then one of the other hunters came from behind and shot the pig in the ass. This set off another round of the pig charging and squealing in frenzied panic, with the brave warrior involved scrambling away for dear life.
The source of all the excitement--this small squirrel Eventually the poor pig started to tire as it was losing a significant amount of blood from its wounds. The hunters tentatively got close again, and shot it two more times with yet more resulting frenzied squeals and charges. After another 5 to 10 minutes and another 3 arrows the pig finally collapsed. It looked like an arrow target at a shooting range with 5 or 6 arrows still poked into its body. One of the hunters then, quite warily and with great caution, approached the mortally wounded animal and thrust a spear into it. After yet another spasm and set of loud piercing and anguished screams, the pig fell back whereby one of the hunters plunged yet another spear into it to finish it off. The whole process took over a half hour. There was nothing proud, dramatic or heroic about it."

Here is a How To Hunt guide:
and another:
I took a basic handgun safety class at a local shooting range, and later took some private rifle lessons. I bought a membership at the shooting range and practiced. I watched other shooters and asked them for help. I asked technical and skill help of friends and at shooting forums.
I practice with air guns at home. I do exercises to improve my sighting skills, breathing, etc.
There are some excellent shooting forums. Here is one:
The High Road is excellent, too. (Can't post a link as it's blocked by the WiFi software.)
As far as actual hunting goes, I have only ever shot very small game with a .22 rifle and very light loads. I enjoy the meditative aspect of shooting. I find it calming and regenerative. I mostly shoot holes in paper, and plink.
There are many great sites about choosing firearms, shooting safety and technique, etc.
I wish you much joy hunting. :)

Answer by WyldKard 17 · Feb 21 '12 at 11:23 PM
I recently bought "The Beginner's Guide to Hunting Deer for Food" by Jackson Landers. I haven't done a review on it yet, but it's a good, quick read, and covers a lot of hunting basics. I'd recommend you give the book a look (it's also available as an eBook if you swing that way).
Understand that every state has different regulations for what kinds of weapons can be used during a given season. While the atlatl may sound cool to use paleo goods, it's not permitted in most states for hunting, along with other "primitive" weapons. Really, you're generally limited to bows and guns, and the former category may limit you further (Oregon, for example, does not permit crossbow use).
Most successful hunts nowadays are stationary exercises where you hunt from a stand or tree. There are some aficionados who do stalk their prey (deer), but in general this method is less successful. There's very little about the sport nowadays that requires an excellent physical condition, which is why you see plenty of stereotypical overweight, redneck hunters.
If your goal is, specifically, to acquire wild meat, then your best bet is to start with a rifle. If your goal is to be in awesome shape, hunting won't help you.
