the door trying to catch that bus to campus. Here are some on-the-go breakfast ideas to keep in mind, from Maureen Callahan at realsimple.com.
As college students, we want to absorb every precious minute we can to sleep in. Your alarm goes off and it is officially go time. With the
morning rush of getting ready, trying to find your homework and still trying to wake yourself up, it's hard to make the time for a nice breakfast. However, there are many ways to give yourself a great breakfast while rushing out

1. Fruit and cheese
"A balanced, easy-to-assemble, make-ahead morning meal: Grab an apple, wrap 1 to 2 ounces of cheddar in plastic, and toss 1/4 cup of fiber- and protein-rich walnuts into a resealable plastic bag."
2. Peanut butter waffle
"Instead of dousing a whole-grain or bran toaster waffle in syrup, cut the sugar and boost the protein and fiber by spreading it with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter. You can also sprinkle on 1 tablepoon of raisins, sesame seeds or extra peanuts for even more fiber, which helps deliver the meal's nutrients slowly and steadily."
3. Plain doughnut with chocolate milk
"A plain cake-style doughnut is usually a better choice than a bakery muffin. At Dunkin' Donuts, for instance, an old-fashioned doughnut has 280 calories, while a corn muffin has 430 calories. Add fiber by eating $ \frac{1}{4} $ cup of almonds or dried fruit. Instead of coffee, try 8 ounces of low-fat chocolate milk."
"To substitute for a meal, an energy bar should have at least 3 to 5 grams of fiber and 10 grams of protein. Odwalla, Kashi GOLEAN and TruSoy are all good options."
4. Energy bars
"A bowl of fiber-rich bran flakes (about 1 1/2 cups) with 8 ounces of low-fat milk is nearly the perfect breakfast. Make it portable by replacing the milk with lemon or vanilla yogurt and mixing it in a to-go container. Increase the fiber and vitamins by adding 1/4 cup of nuts, fresh fruit or dried fruit, such as chopped pecans or blueberries."
5. Cereal "sundae"
6. Strawberry shake
6. Strawberry shake "In a cocktail shaker, combine a packet of vanilla or strawberry instant-breakfast powder (look for the no-sugar-added kind, such as Carnation) and 1 cup of low-fat strawberry cow's milk or soy milk. (You can also mix this the night before.) If you have time, use a blender to add strawberries or a frozen banana for extra fiber, and a scoop of protein powder, such as GeniSoy Natural."
What do you eat for breakfast on the go?
"I usually eat Pop-Tarts for breakfast."

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE
Jay Leno, host of "The Tonight Show," walks in a hallway at the studio, Jan. 28, 2014 in Burbank, Calif.
It is not just that Leno has reigned in late night for most of his decades on the job, and is currently the most popular star in late-night TV. For all his money and success, to many viewers, especially those around Leno's age, 63, he feels more like one of them than other hosts. They
can identify with a guy who, even in a recent interview, was speaking with awe of meeting John Glenn. The fans who still laugh at Leno's jokes may not warm to the younger, sillier, seemingly unpolished Fallon.
Leno wraps up last week of 'Tonight Show,' again
Leno, on his side, has spoken graciously about Fallon, who at his best is very funny. Leno has even compared Fallon to Johnny Carson, the legend that Leno had to follow (and all late-night hosts end up being measured against either Carson, Steve Allen or both). He has noted that Fallon is tuned into technology and social media in a way Leno can never be. On Jerry Seinfeld's "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" webtalk series, Leno brandishes a portable phone whose old, flip style makes Seinfeld
MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE
Monday began Jay Leno's farewell run on "The Tonight Show," four nights of stars and tributes, as he completes close to 22 years of late-night hosting. Friday night, NBC will begin Olympics coverage, then on Feb. 17 Jimmy Fallon will make a smooth transition into the "Tonight" job.
That, at least, is how things are supposed to go. It is also hard for many TV watchers to believe.
laugh. Leno notes that, in his 60s, he feels ready to move on.
but it doesn't matter to some that Leno is being so kind. As Steve Kroft observed in a recent Leno interview on "60 Minutes," Leno said all the right things in 2009 when he yielded "Tonight" to Conan O'Brien.
And the way that turned out — along with the war over "Tonight" after Carson — makes it seem incredible that Leno will placidly and permanently walk away not only from "Tonight," but also from late-night TV generally.
Leno is an unabashed workaholic, using his offhours from "Tonight" to do standup, which he has claimed will fill more of his time after Thursday.
