Workout Tips to Keep
You Cool in Hot Weather
(NU) - Running, cycling, in-line
skating - physical fitness is a na­
tional obsession. The struggle to stay
in shape has made a regular exercise
program a top p rio rity for many
Americans. A blast o f sweltering
weather isn’ t enough to keep a fi­
cionados from their daily routines,
but when the mercury soars, appre­
ciating the effects o f heat on your
body and knowing how best to m it­
igate them, can enhance your per­
formance and preserve your health.
Selecting the proper garb is a key
factor in keeping your cool during
rigorous activity. With all the high-
tech materials now on the market,
which should you choose? A recent
survey in Sportswear International,
a fashion trade publication, reveals
that 79 percent o f consumers polled
indicate they prefer active wear made
of cotton as opposed to other fibers.
The reason? In a word, comfort.
“ I f you’ re concerned about be­
coming overheated, the last thing
you want to do is don a synthetic
garment that doesn’ t breathe and
doesn’ t absorb,” says Wolfgang
Strahl, senior vice president o f tex­
tile research and implementation for
Cotton Inc., the fiber company o f
U.S. cotton growers. “ That’s tanta­
mount to wearing a rubber suit to
work out in.”
Strahl points out that perspiration
is nature’s safeguard against ex­
tremely high temperatures. Under
hot, humid conditions, synthetic fab­
rics increase sweating but trap mois­
ture. Clogged sweat ducts make you
prone to developing rashes and oth­
er skin irritations. Because o f its
unique structure, cotton transports
moisture through the interior o f the
fiber to the garment surface where it
evaporates. It also allows the move­
ment o f air across the skin, promot­
ing cooling.
“ In the summer, I see many peo­
ple with fungal infections, prickly
heat and other forms o f dermatitis,”

follow hero and

underbelly o f the city.
The story opens as Spencer Hunt­
ington is trying to cope with the mur­
der o f her husband, Miami cop and
would-be politician Danny Hunt­
ington. Spencer demands answers
from the one man who should have
them all: David Delgado, ex-cop
turned investigator, her husband’ s
former partner, best friend and the
man she has always secretly loved.
David quickly realizes why
Spencer’s name was the last word
Danny uttered: She is in danger. A f­
ter several attempts on her life,
David moves into her house to watch
her every move and the two are
drawn together.
As their lives become a tangle of
passion and torment, the secrets and
desperate schemes o f the unknown
killer smolder around them. The in­
vestigation draws the reader into a
world o f intrigue and uncertainty,
haves and have-nots, cults, and the
Cuban Mafia.
As a final, desperate attempt on
Spencer’s life is thwarted, the read­
er learns that the danger has come
from a most unlikely source.

Alster affirms such maladies are
often brought on or exacerbated by
inappropriate apparel. “ I recom­

lik e ly to cause itchy skin condi­

To avoid discomfort, Alster ad­
vises you never to put on anything
damp, always wear clean, dry cloth­
ing, shower after exercise and laun­
der garments in a fragrance-free de­

include restricting outdoor activity

Although the game seems rather

I’ ll accept the hand offered in help.
There is a poem called “ The

By John Marks Templeton
(NU) - “ I f you want to get more
out o f life, you have to give more to
life .” Sounds like a contradiction,
doesn’ t it?
Getting ahead has become an ob­
session for many people who believe
that a satisfying life comes from ac­
quiring and holding on to great
wealth.
Yet many o f the w o rld ’s most
successful and influential people
have proven otherwise. They seek
and experience a greater reward in
giving of their wealth than in getting
it. Robert Dedman, a lawyer who has
contributed $40 m illion to charity
and vows to give away at least one-
third o f his estimated $500 m illion
before he dies, said in a 1986 inter­
view in Town & Country magazine:
“ The more you give, the more you
live.”
It is through giving, not getting,
that you can exert a positive force
for good. Giving makes you a mag­
net for success.
Each species has to exist in a nat­
ural state o f giving and receiving;
otherwise, it creates unbalance in its
environment, even to the point o f ex­
tinction. A South American species
o f parasitic vine sustains itself by at­
taching to a certain kind o f fig tree.
The fig tree’s nourishing elements
are gradually diverted to the vine
and the vine literally strangles the
