Sleep less, eat more: study

Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, March 23rd, 1:14 pm

People of normal weight eat more when they sleep less, a small new study finds.

Columbia University researchers discovered that sleep-deprived adults ate almost 300 calories more a day on average than those who got enough sleep. And the extra calories mostly came from saturated fat, which can spell trouble for waistlines.

Madison Jazz prepares to perform in China!

Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, March 21st, 11:22 am

Sunday afternoon I had the privilege and honor of watching "Madison Jazz" practice for their upcoming trip to China! The team is made up of 26 students/performers, including dancers, singers, rhythm section and horn players. I was blown away by the focus and talent that these high school and college students have!

Madison Jazz started in 2003 and is directed by Johnny Nash, who is also the director of the Discovery Middle school band. Nash and the Discovery Middle School band earned two national titles in 2010 and will be defending their titles later this year.
