(GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ)(July 23, 2018)--I grew up poor. Not homeless poor, but the kind of poor where I had to start working when I was fourteen to contribute to the household. It’s just how it was.

   My mother had to look for bargains everywhere, including the grocery store. We clipped coupons until our fingers were calloused, looked for sales and substituted cheaper ingredients than what recipes called for. I was eighteen before I realized you were expected to add hamburger to Hamburger Helper in order to complete the dish.

   I packed my lunch bag with cheese ends and bologna ends between slices of expired bread and took a knife with me to cut the worms out of my over-ripe apple. For supper we had unlabeled cans of food and ate whatever was in them; they were cheaper because shoppers had to guess their contents, which was fun for us, imagining what was in them.

Is Your Snoring a Sign of Something More Serious?

CNBNewsnet (June 4, 2018)--Whether you know it or not, the world is in the midst of a full-blown snoring epidemic. And this epidemic is affecting both the people who snore and the ones who don’t.

Just look at the numbers: approximately 33% of people in the United States have a chronic snoring problem and 50% snore at least occasionally.

What’s worse, snoring can lead to a number of chronic diseases, including sleep apnea, a fatal form snoring where the person stops breathing during the night for minutes at a time.

What is Snoring and Are You Prone to It?

Let’s start at the beginning, shall we…

The first question on everyone’s mind is probably – what exactly is snoring? In essence, snoring is the noise produced by turbulent airflow. That means, if there are any obstructions to the airflow within the inside of your throat or nose, they will contribute to the noise.

And who’s more prone to snoring?

While people of all ages and genders snore, some are more prone to it than others. For instance, overweight people are more prone to snoring because they have more excess fat tissue around their necks; people who drink usually have more relaxed throat muscles, etc.

It’s hard to overstate the magnitude of the nation’s opioid crisis, which claims more than 100 lives each day due to overdoses. The impact of opioids radiates beyond the direct users, however, as secondary exposure to drugs can harm first responders such as police officers, firefighters, and even working dogs, which can use their perceptive noses to find illicit drugs.

The human body develops most tissue types during fetal development, in a mother’s uterus. Yet one only tissue develops after birth: the mammary gland. This milk-producing organ, a defining characteristic of mammals, is also the site of one of the most common cancers, breast cancer, which affects roughly one in eight women in the United States over the course of their lifetime.

CNB SPORTS: Why America Offers Young Athletes Better Opportunities than Anywhere Else

 (CNBNEWSNET)--All over the world, there are talented young people with their hearts set on a career in sport. For many of them, once they finish high school, the ideal is to get a sports scholarship to a US college, which is why companies that help match talent up to American colleges, such as asmscholarships.com , fill an important role. 

There are strong sports leagues and competitive athletics meets all over the world, and for some sports like soccer, it can be argued that the US has a weaker infrastructure for aspiring stars than other places like the UK, Germany, Spain and Italy. However, even for teens who want to get into these kinds of sports, if they also want a college education then the US is still the best option.

NCAA Reaches Settlement with Penn State; Lions Vacated Football Record will be Restored

 

Agreement allows fine money to be distributed

January 16, 2015 12:58pm

Programs serving child sexual abuse survivors will now receive millions of dollars as part of the NCAA's proposed settlement with Pennsylvania state officials. This lawsuit stemmed from the NCAA’s sanctions against Penn State University for its role in allowing serial child sexual abuse to occur on its campus.

The proposed settlement agreement with the NCAA, university and state officials, among other things, restores Penn State’s vacated wins from 1998 through 2011.

Subject to board approval from Penn State, the new agreement between the NCAA and Penn State, replacing the 2012 consent decree between the parties, provides the following:

• Penn State agrees to commit a total of $60 million to activities and programs for the prevention of child sexual abuse and the treatment of victims of child sexual abuse.
• Penn State acknowledges the NCAA's legitimate and good faith interest and concern regarding the Jerry Sandusky matter.

University of Pennsylvania Professor Blames America's Racist God for the Killing of Brown

Via Campus Reform:

An Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania has blamed “America’s racist god” for the killing of Michael Brown.

Anthea Butler, A regular guest on MSNBC, blamed America’s blood thirsty “god of white supremacy,” for the Ferguson tragedy in which police officer Darren Wilson fatally shot teenager Michael Brown during a violent altercation.

“America’s racist god requires black people’s blood to atone for the sins committed by its followers,” Butler writes in Religion Dispatches, an independent non-profit news and commentary blog hosted by the University of Southern California.

“This time, the blood shed in sacrifice to this god of white supremacy was Michael Brown’s,” Butler writes.

Butler continues by likening prosecutor Robert McCulloch to Pontius Pilate and alleging that Darren Wilson acted as agent to the “god of white supremacy.”

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (Sept. 13, 2014) – One bad defensive series -- after nearly 57 minutes of stellar play by the unit -- proved to be Rutgers' undoing in its naticipated Big Ten Conference opener last night.

Penn State's Christian Hackenberg drove his team 80 yards in six plays, with Bill Belton finishing the drive with a five-yard run with 1:13 to play, as the Nittany Lions rallied for a 13-10 victory over the Scarlet Knights before a record crowd of 53,774 at High Point Solutions Stadium tonight.

Held in check most of the game, Hackenberg needed just 1:49 to drive those 80 yards after Penn State (3-0) took over at its 20 yard line trailing 10-6. A 53-yard completion to Geno Lewis followed shortly after by a 23-yard completion to Lewiswere the key plays in the drive.

OMAHA, Neb. -- A meeting of the minds between the Vanderbilt coaching staff led to a change in the Commodore batting order and ultimately, a national championship.

Vanderbilt coach Tim Corbin penciled John Norwood in the 4-hole for Wednesday’s night’s deciding Game 3 of the CWS Finals, and the junior center fielder delivered with a game-winning home run as the Commodores beat Virginia 3-2 for its first national title in a men’s sport and just the second in school history.

“That’s [assistant coach] Travis Jewett, [volunteer coach] Drew Hedmen and myself getting together at lunch,” Corbin said. “Travis had a couple of lineups, and he said, ‘How do you think these feel?’ He said, ‘I’ve got a knee-buckle lineup, and I’ve got a more conventional lineup.’ The knee-buckle one was different. Obviously, you never know what’s going to happen because we had some guys positioned differently.”
