Beer Buzz
Whether you're a beer drinker
or not, 'tis the season for cold,
frothy brews. From light to dark,
Belgian Ales to American Lagers,
beer sales tend to increase during
the lazy dog days of summer. It
seems to be a staple at picnics
and local outdoor festivals, and
of course for our BBQ captains,
helming the grill with beer in
hand. It's a great time to learn a
little bit more about this bubbling
beverage.

Though summertime is
the peak for most water sports,
it's actually the off season for
UOP's men's and women's
water polo teams. But the
coaches and players never
really get a break-though
there are no games in the
summer months, their
ambitious goals for next
season keep everyone busy.

Summer Swimming Safety
Summertime is upon us, which means more time
spent near the water. Even if you don't have a pool

creeks, rivers and other waterways throughout the

Highlights
Understanding Autism
Twenty years ago, autism was hardly talked about. For many, their first exposure to it was watching Rainman or that ridiculous Bruce Willis movie Mercury Rising. Now, though, everyone knows someone diagnosed with autism and the statistics point toward this trend increasing -- current estimates suggest that 1 in 88 children 8 years old or younger will be diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

medical emergency, there is nothing

So you call 911.And with that call
begins a beautifully choreographed
chain of events designed to get you
away from that place of fear and to
the help you need.
Gracefully Aging Eyes
One day, you're going to have to admit it. You can't see what that street sign up ahead says, the print in that book isn't so easy to read anymore. It may even be hard for you to read this article. You're going to have to admit that your eyes are aging...and not aging well.
Vino Culture
According to the state of Alabama, Cycles Gladiator peddles pornography. Their label, which is actually an old Parisian advertisement for Gladiator brand bicycles, was censored by the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board for several years, a fact that the winery proudly advertises on t-shirts and in tasting campaigns in nearby states. "Banned in Alabama, loved in Lodi," their shirts proclaim. It wasn't until the Thomas Jefferson Center of Free Expression awarded the Alabama ABC Board a Muzzle Award for egregious censorship that the ban was eventually lifted, but by then, Cycles Gladiator was already enjoying their infamy.
