Even though it’s not chemo, turn down this treatment

If You Knew THIS Might Happen,
Would You Still Get This
Prostate Treatment?

Even the National Institutes of Health is vague about what the appropriate treatment for prostate cancer is. In essence, they say, “It depends.”

Yet men diagnosed with prostate cancer are routinely subjected to a specific treatment anyway, especially if the cancer has spread.

Today I’m going to give you five compelling reasons you might want to reject this treatment. What’s more, doctors routinely conceal at least one of these problems from their patients. And it causes great emotional and relational trauma.

Bowie State Bulldogs Shut Out Johnson C. Smith’s Golden Bulls 24-0

BOWIE, Md. - The Bowie State University Bulldogs (1-4, 1-1 CIAA) football team snapped a four-game skid and shutout the visiting Golden Bulls of Johnson C. Smith University 24-0 on Saturday afternoon. The shutout was the first for Bowie State since a 14-0 blanking of Saint Paul’s in 2009, Coach Damon Wilson’s first season.

Bowie State defense held Johnson C. Smith (1-4, 0-2 CIAA) to 240 yards of total offense. On the flipside, Bowie State accumulated 457 yards of total offense which included a season-high 284 rushing yards.

Graduate student Christopher Townsend (Washington, D.C.) led the Bulldogs with six total tackles. The BSU trio of redshirt sophomores Bryan Blue (Accokeek, Md.), Rahsaan Moore (District Heights, Md.) and redshirt junior Curtis Pumphey (Laurel, Md.) tallied five tackles apiece in the win.

Junior Trevon Bennett (Fort Washington, Md.) threw for 173 yards (15-of-29) and two touchdowns with senior Khari Lee (Baltimore, Md.) leading all receivers with 87 yards on six receptions and one touchdown. Bowie State redshirt senior Keith Brown (Temple Hills, Md.) led all rushers with 102 yards on 22 carries, both personal season-highs.

The Bulldogs got on the scoreboard first at the 11:50 mark of the first quarter following a four yard TD run by junior Kendall Jefferson (Temple Hills, Md.), capping off a 10-play, 84 yard game opening drive. The extra point by senior Mario Diaz-Aviles (Washington, D.C.) was good for the early 7-0 lead.

Bowie State increased its lead to 14-0 late in the first quarter on a shuttle pass from Bennett to Brown for an 8-yard score at the 2:10mark, capping off a 16-play, 73 yard drive.

The Bulldogs extended their lead to 17-0 at the 9:17 mark of the second quarter following a Diaz-Aviles 25 yard field goal.

Bowie State’s defense kept the Golden Bulls on JCSU’s side of the field on its first two third quarter possessions. Johnson C. Smith’s first possession of the second half netted on six yards on three plays and six yards on five plays on their second possession of the third quarter. In fact, the Golden Bulls never got into the red zone and their deepest penetration was to the BSU 23 yard line late in the second quarter.

The Bulldogs scored their final points of the afternoon with 2:45 left in the third quarter. On BSU’s 10^th play of the drive, Bennett connected with Lee for a 35 yard touchdown. Lee did most of the work on the play, breaking tackles and running over several Johnson C. Smith defenders down the Golden Bulls sideline, extending the Bowie State lead to 24-0.

Johnson C. Smith quarterback Keahn Wallace (Miami, Fla.) paced the Golden Bulls with 134 passing yards, completing 18-of-33 and added 17 rushing yards. De’Erik Bradley (Columbia, S.C.) posted a team-high 72 rushing yards while Avius Capers had six receptions for 51 yards. Austin Jacques (Springdale, Md.) was all over the field, racking up a game-high 23 tackles in the loss.

Bowie State University will hit the road for their next CIAA contest, as the Bulldogs make a trip to Murfreesboro (N.C.) to take on the Hawks of Chowan University. This homecoming game will kickoff at 3 pm in CU’s Garrison Stadium.

What Athletes Eat To Win

This article is a little dated (I think Eric Snow retired from the NBA  after the 2008 season), but the information is just as valid, and maybe even more so now. All US Sports Online Strength and Conditioning Programs come with our state-of-the-art nutritional meal planner.

• What Athletes Eat To Win

  Three top athletes, a professional basketball player, a triathlete and a rodeo clown, reveal the dietary regimens they say help them maintain peak performance.
  Eric Snow
  Professional Basketball Player
  I try to be conscious of my diet, partly because I can't knock off the pounds as easily as when I was younger and partly because you don't want to be too full playing in the NBA.
  Some guys eat whatever they want, but I stick to a fairly consistent regimen: On game days, breakfast consists of a bagel or some toast and a piece of fruit; when we don't have a game, I might have a bigger breakfast such as pancakes. But if I eat a really big breakfast on game days, it throws me off: I might be full until 4 p.m., so I'll skip lunch and can't eat because it's too close to game time.
  Lunch is usually my big meal,some pasta or chicken. On game days, that's all I have until after the game. Then, I might eat something like a turkey sandwich or a salad,  something just to tide me over. I'm usually not hungry after a game and don't want to eat a heavy meal before going to sleep. I may splurge on ice cream, but that's pretty much it for junk food. And I never eat pork or beef. Before I was in the NBA, I ate a lot more food and still felt hungry. Now, I feel satisfied.
  My biggest concentration for competing is to drink enough. I drink four 32-ounce glasses of water or Gatorade throughout the day, including one at every meal. That's the real key drinking enough. Eric Snow is the starting point guard for the Philadelphia 76ers.
  
  Doug Stern
  Triathelete
  How and what I eat before exercise depends on many factors, the distance or duration of a race or workout, how long I've been training, the weather, but one thing always is constant: fluid intake, which is 8 ounces every hour throughout the day. During intense exercise, you can sweat as much as 8 ounces every 20 minutes.
  When I was competing, I trained about two to three hours a day, and I would lose about 8 ounces of sweat every 20 minutes or so. To keep myself hydrated, I would drink gallons of water mixed with powdered vitamin C and electrolytes throughout the day. But during competition, I, as well as many other triathletes, drank a mixture of water and, flat cola, which we mixed beforehand. We did this because the cola contains caffeine to keep you up, and it is easily digested.
  My competition diet was high-carb and healthful, but I've always focused more on when I eat than what I eat. If a race were on Saturday, I would carbo-load from Wednesday on by keeping my meals constant but decreasing my activity level. That means a breakfast of cereal and fruit; lunch consists of pasta or a bagel and vegetables; and dinner contains meat or chicken for protein. The night before a race, I would have a big lunch and a very small dinner, if at all, to keep my bowels fairly empty. The morning of a race, I would only have coffee and cereal at least 1 hours before the start of the race.
  Doug Stern has competed in nearly 40 triathlons, a race consisting of a 2.4-mile swim, 18-mile run and 50-mile bike race. He wrote a training column for Triathlete magazine and currently teaches swimming in New York City.
  Paul Bonds
  Rodeo Bullfighter
  As a rodeo clown, my job is to protect the cowboy to distract a raging bull long enough for the cowboy to get away. It's tough and dangerous work, and you have to be in top physical condition. A rodeo cowboy has to last eight seconds on a bull whose mission is to throw him, but I'm out there working for that eight seconds, the next eight seconds, the next eight seconds, one cowboy after another, for the entire night.
  It's hard to maintain a steady healthful diet because I'm on the road continuously from April to October, and I'm forced to eat a lot of fast food. I do try to eat a high-carbohydrate meal before I work to give me the energy I need. I eat a lot of pasta and beans; it helps keep my legs fresh. But no matter where I am or what food is available, I drink plenty of water four 32-ounce cups of water each day. No way you can do this work without keeping yourself hydrated.
  Paul Bonds, a member of the International Professional Rodeo Association, spends half the year touring the U.S. rodeo circuit and the other half at home in Oklahoma City.
