Accord- ing to the National Health and Nutrition Exam Survey, about one in three American adults are overweight. With this in mind, it should come as no surprise that Americans are also the most voracious consumers of diet pills. Americans spend more than 33 bil- jion dollars annually on weight reduction prod- ucts, contributing to a rapidly growing industry that shows no sign of For several weeks now, I™ve been losing steam in the near effects. The abuse of diet pills can also produce psychological addiction or lead to serious health concerns. Appetite suppressants often con- tain derivatives of adrenaline or amphetamines, which can be highly addictive and cause side effects such as palpitations, dry mouth, insommnia, and anxiety. Some appetite suppres- see can therefore cause random mood swings and even variations in per- sonality. Pills that focus on liquids in the body usually contain either diuretics or laxatives. Pills that contain diuret- ics stimulate water loss, and are usu- ally ineffective because of the body™s natural tendency to replace lost fluids. Diuretics can be potentially harmful because they may also cause potassium depletion, which can lead to muscular weakness and mental confusion. Slimming pills that contain laxa- tives simply rush foods through the digestive system, preventing proper absorption of food. Taking laxative diet pills can cause severe diarrhea, dehydration from water loss, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Pills containing harsh laxatives may also cause irreparable damage to the intestines after prolonged use. The most popular and generally be sufficient to make an informed decision about using it. People who use diet pills may be particularly educated about the way a pill works, but they probably aren™t educated on how their bodies work, said Dr. Steve Estes, chair of the department of exercise and sports science. It is also essential to keep in mind that most prescription diet pills are intended mainly for mor- bidly obese people, that is people who are 100 pounds or more over- weight. There are many sensible alterna- tives to diet pills, all of which include proper nutrition and lots of exercise. The importance of exercise, whether it is strenuous or light to moderate can not be understated. For a long time, doctors and researchers believed that obesity was a primary cause of many health problems, said Estes.

Another factor is the amount of education you have received. Those with a college education were at less risk then those who only had a high school education. Students can help those who are victims of abuse. If a friend is involved in an abusive relation- ship you can help by talking them through their problem and assist in getting them out of their situation. Talking to a friend may be the best help you can offer and it is important that you make them feel worthwhile and good about themselves. Another important way you can help as a student is by donating your old cell phones to victims of abuse. Your old cell phone will be given Man and his CASEVILLE, Mich. (AP) -You only live life once. But if you live it right, once is all you'll ever need.

Beneath his name on the card is his title: Global Vagabond. Originally from Armada, Keller he has traveled to Japan, Hong Kong, Hawaii, the Philippines, Thai- land, Puerto Rico, Germany, British Columbia, Ireland and the Virgin Islands, along with several states. He has climbed Pikes Peak and Mount St. Helens and hiked the Grand Canyon, along with many Western trails. Now, he can add Caseville to his list. Keller™s recent visit to Caseville was unplanned, but nonetheless, it was enjoyable for him as well as the people he met here. Yt had bought a 17-foot, yellow free of charge to these victims. The phones are reprogrammed with emergency numbers for instant access to police. One thing to remember is to deactivate your old phone before you donate it. Any phone is accepted old or broken. If you would like to donate your cell phone you can send it to: Sheriff Mac Manning PO Box 528 Greenville NC, 27858 Web-sites can be extremely useful in assisting victims as they can provide information regarding shelters and other methods of assistance. The National Hotline for domestic violence is 1-800- 799-7233 and the North Carolina hotline is (919) 683-8628 or (702) 885-7233.

For an example, an athlete training for ballistic power in a lateral weight shifting movement such as a running back making a cut in football; might use an aerobic stair step and jump over the stair step from side to side as fast as possible.

State throughout last weekend. Four divisions of play- ers separated to form four different tournaments as Maryland, UNC Charlotte, UNC Asheville, Radford, Liberty, Elon and Davidson joined the Pirates in Raleigh last weekend. The Pirates saw good competition from their top two players. Freshman Charl Meyer and sophomore Julien Crevelier went undefeated against opponents from Elon and Davidson. Playing in the No.1 position, Meyer defeated Richard Dutton from Elon 7-5, 6-2 and Davidson™s top player 6-2, 6-3. Crevelier also won matches against Davidson and Elon on Friday, 7-6, 2-6, 6-and 6-3, 6-0, respectively. He was the top winner for the Pirates, going undefeated in Flight B.

Back home where their magic multiplies, baseball™s best team during the regular season guaranteed it would be around for some more postseason fun. He defeated Justin Roberson of Elon 6-4,6-2 and lost to Michael Carducci of N.C. State 3-6, 7-6, 6-2. Some of the freshmen faired well against their respective opponents. Playing in the 3rd and 4th positions, Bryce Synder and Brett Calloway lost all of their matches on Friday, while Brian Cochran won 7-5, 6-2 against Binney of UNC Asheville. He lost his second match to John Davis of N.C. State, 6-1, 2-6, 6-0. Brett, Brian, and Bryce need a little more work to compete at this level but they played pretty good, said Head Coach Tom Morris. The men™s season is officially in the spring and the arrival of two new Brazilian recruits should give the team the boost to a higher level. We have some recruits coming in the spring that ought to complete the team as we are a little short in the lineup right now, said Crevelier. On Sunday, the Pirates, with the exception of Crevelier, came up short in the tournament. Crevelier won Flight B by defeat- ing Chiu of Maryland 6-1, 6-1. Crev- elier has not taken home a loss in any of his fall singles matches. T thought I played pretty good, the first match was easy as was the final South Carolina (tournament this week) ought to be a little more of New York, what kind of players we have and what kind of team we are. We tied history, but it wouldn™t have looked very good if we got knocked out in the first round. After nearly seeing their record- tying 116 wins in the regular season overshadowed by an early October exit, the Mariners returned to the safety and screaming fans in Safeco Field and did what they™ve done all season. They got solid starting pitching, a challenge, Crevelier said. Charl Meyer reached the semi- finals of the flight A tournament by defeating Hornsby of Appalachian State 6-3, 6-4. Brad Sullivan, Bryce Synder, Brett Calloway and Brian Cochran each fell short of wins in last Sun- day™s play. Sophomore Tobias Boren was suspended from match play for violating ITA rules of conduct, a matter that Morris is currently looking into on how to resolve it. At the completion of the three- day event, Sullivan finished 6th place in the Flight B Tournament, Synder finishedi4th overall in the flight C tournament, Cochran fin- ished in 8th place in the Flight D Tournament and Calloway finished in 13th place in flight D We did weil. Fall is not our season but this gives us a chance to identify the areas we need to work on and put ourselves in good position for the spring, Morris said. The Pirates will return to action on Thursday as Sullivan, Meyer and Crevelier travel to Charleston, S. C, to take part in the Gamecock™s Invitational Tournament.
