| A gameday in the life
OAKLAND -The life of an NBA player is worthy of envy. Millions of dollars. Celebrity access. Plenty of free time. It's a life of itch-scratching and thrill-seeking. It's a life of luxury and abundance. Most people would do anything to be in a player's shoes for just one day. Well, if Warriors guard Kelenna Azubuike is a typical NBA player, game day would be the wrong day to do so. Earlier this month, on a day when the Warriors were to host the Memphis Grizzlies, Azubuike allowed a reporter and a photographer a glimpse at his daily routine. For Azubuike, game days are all about relaxing. Call it the calm before the storm. He purposely keeps his life tranquil in the hours before tipoff. The goal is to preserve every ounce of energy before the real fun starts at 7:30 p.m.
Tottenham end nine-year jinx in style to book a place at Wembley
There will be those who read the scoreline above and believe it is a misprint. After all, Tottenham Hotspur do not defeat Arsenal at all these days, let alone by a four-goal margin. This is no error at the printers, however. Nothing has been lost in translation, there will be no corrections, amplifications, clarifications or hasty adjustments in the stop press. Tottenham scored five goals and Arsenal one: fact. Tottenham were in a different class: irrefutably. The best team won, without a doubt. Go on, pinch yourself. This is no dream, we promise. True, it may only have been half an Arsenal team who lost at White Hart Lane, but it was also half an Arsenal team who contested the final of this tournament last season and came damn close to beating Chelsea at full strength.
SU-Rutgers Recap
In the past you might have had three or four teams that were good enough to hold their home court. Now really everybody is. I think it will continue to be difficult. There are so many teams so close, but with such wide disparities and big swings. I think traditionally teams have always played a little better at home anyway." Player Quotes Donte Greene On how much they needed a game where things went right... "Bad. I mean, tonight wasn't even that night. I didn't hit my shots that well, but it just happened that the defense stepped up. I think tonight really it was our defense. We played the 2-3 (zone) the whole game and played it successfully. We got out on the shooters, helping when someone was penetrating, just overall our defense was good tonight.

Doctor's weight loss success inspires others on-line
I used an olive oil/apple cider vinegar dressing and it was the best darn salad I ever had. I was so thrilled to be chewing something that it might as well have been a pizza. I was happy. So here are some of the benefits of that 6 day exercise... 1) By the sixth day I had lost ALL cravings for any particular food. It was like my entire appetite was reset. 2) I felt great. After about the third day my appetite went away and I felt quite content with plenty of energy. I slept great and popped right out of bed without the alarm clock. 3) I felt such a sense of pride for having completed what I set out to do. I didn't break the rules even once and that definitely helped build my confidence in myself. It gave me great momentum which is what I wanted.
