Less than a week after returning a life sentence for the murder of Brianna Taylor, two jurors from the Michael Todd Hilton trial said the jury came away feeling comfortable"with the decision it made.
Accused killer Timothy George Cruz made his first court appearance Tuesday morning and found out the Commonwealth has 80 pages of discovery evidence in a case against him.
Cruz, 48, of Rineyville, is charged with murder in the May 31 stabbing death of Jason Ray Scott, 35, of Elizabethtown.
Fort Knox will celebrate the nation's 239 years of independence with a Fourth of July celebration beginning at 5 p.m. Saturday at Brooks Field parade grounds on post and a Salute to the Nation ceremony at the post flag pole at 9 p.m.
Two men pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to robbing the West Point Bank in Glendale of nearly $9,000 last December.
Leonard Duane Sisk, 54, of Cecilia, and Justin Matthew Collinge, 32, of Leitchfield, pleaded guilty to the Dec. 23, 2014 robbery. They were arrested Jan. 5.
The man accused of stabbing another to death in Vine Grove late last month has been indicted by a Hardin County grand jury for murder.
Timothy George Cruz, 48, of Rineyville also is charged with tampering with physical evidence after the May 31 incident, in which Jason Ray Scott, 35, of Elizabethtown, died.
The State Farm E'town Open will pack several area tennis courts this weekend.
Most of the action Saturday takes place at the Freeman Lake Tennis Complex, while University Drive Park and American Legion Park will also be used. All Sunday matches are at Freeman Lake.
Bookings at the Hardin County Detention Center from 5 p.m. Tuesday through 5 p.m. Wednesday.
Despite cuts, Fort Knox remains a "heavy investor" in itself and its soldiers, and this year those expenditures returned $60,000 as the post claimed the silver Army Communities of Excellence award.

Pathetic? Gee, that sure makes me want to go out and protest injustice. Apparently if I am not going to meet the Pitch's arbitrary standards of coolness, I should not even think about it. I am just glad these folks were "pathetic" enough to listen to their hearts and not to the kind of cynicism that seems to afflict the staff of the Pitch.

Urban outfitters: Bryan Noonan's Kansas City Strip (December 15) revealed much more than just a discussion about blacksploitation of Kansas City's urban youth.
I appreciate the exposure given to an abhorrent practice of "pimping" Kansas City's black community, whether the sale is offensive T-shirts, guns or drugs. Pener's Clothing may have given thousands to urban-core organizations, but had it not been for the residents of the urban core patronizing their stores, they would have been unable to afford their children's college education, their new cars and their fine home or to have established additional retail stores around the country.
However, my beef is with community activist Ron Hunt's disparaging comments regarding Italian businesses in the urban core. I have never read such hateful, prejudging, stereotyping in all my life! Mr. Hunt's flippant broad-brush statement that the Italians have established "a liquor store on every corner, selling guns and pasta" was downright hurtful and counterproductive to improving race relations.
As a neighborhood and community activist, I have had the privilege of partnering with several liquor store owners who make it a practice to give back to their neighborhood in effective ways.
Years before 36 urban-core liquor store owners signed a covenant with Project Neighborhood to be responsive stakeholders, they knew the value of being good neighbors. Many were already in the practice of contributing thousands of dollars to neighborhood academic scholarship funds. UNICO provides annual scholarships to deserving youth throughout Kansas City; many are dues-paying members of their urban-core neighborhood associations; they sponsor and participate in neighborhood cleanups and community improvement activities.
We know the "Archie Bunkers" are alive and well in Kansas City, and now Mr. Hunt has proven so are the "George Jeffersons"!
Mindless, violent acts in Kansas City will cease when we stop the flow of mean-spirited, stupid public comments people make about one another. Mr. Hunt, quit hating!

Project runway: I enjoyed Ben Paynter's "In God We Dress" (December 22).
I realize The Standard is located on the Country Club Plaza, and being neighbors to Blonde, it would make sense to have a fashion show there. Although, I find it interesting that the owner of Blonde has made his money through the porn business, and the concept behind Standard is Christian values. God is certainly working miracles on that street corner. God bless you.

Editor's note: As "In God We Dress" noted, the Standard Style Boutique is located in Johnson County's Town Center Plaza.

Art of the matter: Regarding Ray T. Barker's Jane Pronko review (Art Beat, December 22): Ray got my take on urban loneliness and angst, but Pronko's work is also about tenacity and spirit; it's not all heartless. Jane and I hit it off years ago when we talked of her art not being "pretty," but capturing a range of emotions. The work is actually quite beautiful and positive like some Billie Holiday ballads!
Thanks for the thoughtful and concise review. There are many good exhibits going on in KC at any one time, but not enough get reviewed. The Late Show is always pleased with well-written press.
Art public, write letters to the press. Make some fucking noise and support your local artists and art scene.

Munich pact: Who is Robert Wilonsky? And why is he reviewing movies?
Why does Bobbie think Munich is wishy-washy in its intentions ("Tragedy Re-Revisited," December 22)? Was Mommy not available to explain the movie to him? Explaining to simple Bobbie that the film had a theme not of vengeance but of what happens to the soul of individuals who kill. That violence never ends. It reverberates, it dissipates, it lodges in the hearts of children "whose father was a military hero." A father he never knew, because he was growing up on kibbutz, with the only thing he knew of his father.
Did Mr. Wilonsky miss that? Was it too subtle? Not included on the video-game version?
"He intercuts these grisly flashbacks with scenes of Avner violently screwing his wife. Whatever the filmmaker's intentions, to show us Avner's need to connect with his wife or disconnect from his actions, it plays only as overwrought and foolish. "
It did not play this way at all. Bobbie, try meditating on love and atonement. Perhaps Avner was trying to exorcise his hate. Perhaps he was looking for redemption. Where can one find peace and redemption if not in love?
I hope that our young men returning from Iraq are lucky enough to have someone waiting to make them whole with love. Is there a better metaphor for this than the womb?
Bobbie, grow up. Challenge yourself to understand larger themes. Learn to love.

A toast: It is hard to write a mash letter about a middle-aged, presumably overweight Italian-American (my personal role model), but I can't help it. It was during my brief residence in Kansas City from 2002-04 that I discovered Charles Ferruzza.
The first review that I read was his skewering of the Machine Shed in Olathe, and I still suffer from fits of laughter recalling his description of the flatulent patrons and/or servers (I can't recall which now) he encountered there with his friend Bob ("Grub Shack," September 5, 2002). His most recent revisit to Plaza III brought back fine memories of that icon's great food and of his sublime writing ("Well-Aged," December 22). This is all good, to the point that I now have an uncontrolled urge to eat a radish off an iced tray.
Mr. Ferruzza, Mr. Trillin does not hold a candle to your food writing, and human wit and insights!

The tipping point: On behalf of lots of us in the industry, THANK YOU, Charles Ferruzza, for the column on tipping on wine (My Big Fat Mouth, December 15)! You da man!
I think that some people look upon servers almost as slaves or, perhaps more politically correct, servants and not as commissioned sales people. Servers work a lot harder than most people think for not much money. Good servers try hard to earn that 18-20 percent tip. Our dining system has been built around tipped employees for eons, and if that were to change to a salaried position, you would, first of all, see a decline in the quality of service in many places due to the loss of that incentive and, more important, a radical increase in the price of your food ... probably about 20 percent!
Let's make that $25 steak a $30 steak!

06/04/2015 - The Connecticut Head Start-Family Shelter Partnership: Working Together to Meet the Needs of Families and Children
By Grace Whitney, Jamie Peterson, and Susan Compton Agamy
Surprisingly, we are more likely to find ourselves in a homeless shelter at age one that at any other age in our lives. [2012 AHAR (HUD, 2012) and Census Data] This remains true through age five. Half of all children in family shelters are age five or younger. In order to address this, Head Start and family shelters in Connecticut have come together to combine resources so that they can better meet the particular needs of pregnant women, infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and their families.
Through a partnership that has included the Head Start State Collaboration Office (HSSCO), the state's HUD agency, which was formerly the Department of Social Services and is now the Department of Housing, and the state's networks of local Head Start and shelter agencies, ongoing discussions are taking place to identify opportunities to align policies and practices that can overcome the shared challenge of serving this population of families.
The goals of the effort have been simple:
- increase enrollment in Head Start,
- make family shelters more child-friendly, and
- penetrate one another's local networks and councils to bring the children's voice to the housing community and the housing voice to the early childhood community.
05/29/2015 - Ending Chronic Homelessness in 2017
On any given night, we know that nearly 85,000 Americans with disabling health conditions who have experienced homelessness for long periods of time—some for years or decades—can be found sleeping on our streets, in shelters, or other places not meant for human habitation. These men and women experiencing chronic homelessness commonly have a combination of mental health problems, substance use disorders, and medical conditions that worsen over time and too often lead to an early death.
Without connections to the right types of care, people who are experiencing chronic homelessness cycle in and out of hospital emergency departments and inpatient beds, detox programs, jails, prisons, and psychiatric institutions—all at high public expense. Some studies have found that leaving a person to remain chronically homeless costs taxpayers as much as $30,000 to $50,000 per year.
05/21/2015 - Youth Counts COUNT!
By Coco Auerswald
On Wednesday, April 29, I had the honor of representing our We Count, California! team at two historic events in Washington, DC—a Senate hearing and a White House briefing—both focused on the Administration's goal of ending youth homelessness by 2020. Across the board, I heard a clear message that youth counts matter.
This day of unprecedented attention to the need to end youth homelessness was inspiring but came with a sober recognition that we have a good way to go to meet our goal. The importance of better data regarding youth—upon which an adequate plan is to be built—was a recurring theme throughout the day. From Senator Dianne Feinstein's remarks to statements by Jennifer Ho of HUD and USICH Executive Director Matthew Doherty, there was a consistent recognition during both events that current counts underestimate the actual scope of youth homelessness.
05/13/2015 - Public Housing Authorities and Continuums of Care: Establishing and Maintaining Powerful Teams in the Effort to End Homelessness
By Kiley Gosselin
Although they have long been assisting families and individuals experiencing homelessness, more and more public housing authorities (PHAs) are emerging as heroes in the fight to end homelessness –making housing those experiencing homelessness a formal focus of their efforts, often overcoming regulatory hurdles and limited resources. In many communities from Houston to Asheville, contributions from PHAs are helping to reduce the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Given the scale of PHA resources, even smaller and incremental contributions of vouchers and housing units by PHAs, especially when combined with the resources of Continuums of Care (CoCs), can have a big impact on homelessness.
While some PHAs already have strong partnerships with local CoCs, others are just beginning. HUD and USICH have long promoted the idea that strong CoC and PHA relationships are critical to our efforts to end homelessness across populations. In an effort to assist communities in building these relationships, HUD, in concert with USICH, recently produced a set of two documents. The first, CoC and PHA Collaboration: Strategies for CoCs to Start the Partnership Conversation provides some preliminary strategies and tips for starting or improving the conversation between CoCs and their local PHAs. The second, entitled, The Business Case for Partnering with Public Housing Agencies to Serve People Who Are Homeless is designed to help PHAs and CoCs understand the ways their partnerships can benefit a community's overall efforts to end homelessness from a business perspective.
05/11/2015 - Ending Youth Homelessness
By Luke Tate
No young person should lack a stable and safe home, or be without a caring adult they can count on. Too many of America's youth have been robbed of that essential foundation — and thanks to the extraordinary work of practitioners and volunteers across the country, we are learning what it takes to reestablish that footing and end youth homelessness nationwide.
In 2012, the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) issued the Framework to End Youth Homelessness detailing the steps necessary to achieve the goal of ending youth homelessness by 2020, and strategies to improve outcomes for children and youth experiencing homelessness. This framework articulates the need for government, non-profit, civic, and faith community partners to focus together on the overall well-being of youth experiencing homelessness — addressing not just their need for stable housing, but also their educational and employment goals, and the importance of permanent adult connections in their lives.
05/08/2015 - Harnessing Medicaid to Help Solve Homelessness
By Richard Cho
Five years since the passage of the Affordable Care Act, many of the major objectives of the law are being met; more than 16 million Americans have gained health coverage, bringing the number of people without insurance down to historic lows. Included in the newly insured are approximately six million of the lowest income Americans, who have gained access to public health insurance through Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). And while the data is limited on the specific number of people experiencing homelessness who have gained coverage, we have numerous reports that enrollment in Medicaid and other types of health insurance among people experiencing homelessness has grown significantly. With so many people now able to access health care coverage, the results are in: the Affordable Care Act is working.
Of course, increasing access to health coverage is only one objective of the law. The other major objective is to shift the focus of health care away from procedures and treatments and towards the overall quality of care and people's health outcomes. For people who experience homelessness, we know that having stable housing is essential to health. Stable housing not only has direct benefits on health—reducing exposure to high-risk behaviors and the negative effects of life on the streets—but it also creates a platform for better care. Thus, for people experiencing homelessness, the ultimate measure of whether or not the Affordable Care Act is working may be the degree to which it can incentivize the health care system to address housing needs as a foundation for better health.
05/07/2015 - Medicaid is a Game-Changer for Ending Chronic Homelessness, But to Win, We Have to Play
By Richard Cho
It has been proven time and time again that for people experiencing chronic homelessness and suffering from chronic health conditions, the path to improved health begins with stable housing, namely through supportive housing. Supportive housing (also known as 'permanent supportive housing') has been shown to improve physical and behavioral health outcomes for people experiencing chronic homelessness, while simultaneously lowering health care costs by decreasing emergency room visits and hospitalizations. In most communities today however, the services that make supportive housing so effective are still funded by a patchwork of public and private sources, or in some cases, are severely under-funded. Fortunately, thanks to the Affordable Care Act we now have the potential to create a more systematic and sustainable way to finance services in supportive housing -- through Medicaid.
The truth is, this isn't all new. Medicaid has covered these types of supportive housing services for a long time. After all, one of Medicaid's first authorities allowed states to cover primary care case management. What is new is the Affordable Care Act, which by increasing the coverage of people experiencing homelessness under Medicaid and by shifting the focus of health care on value rather than volume, creates new opportunities to increase the role of Medicaid in covering services in supportive housing. At the same time, Medicaid is a Federal and state program and the decision to cover these services under Medicaid rests with the states. Whether states do so will depend on the degree to which they are made aware of the cost-benefit of helping people access and obtain housing as opposed to cycle in and out of emergency rooms, inpatient hospital beds, shelters, and the streets.
We all have the responsibility of educating states about the cost-effectiveness of supportive housing and the opportunity to cover services in supportive housing under Medicaid. Here are four things you can do to ensure your state includes these services:
05/01/2015 - Coordinated Entry System to End Veteran and Chronic Homelessness in Tucson
By Rudy Trinidad
Sonia Niznik (pictured right, with her Case Manager, Rudy Trinidad) was taking shelter from Arizona's dry summer heat at a "cooling center" provided by a local church when a team of outreach workers began conducting screenings using the Vulnerability Index-Service Prioritization and Decision Assistance Tool (VI-SPDAT). At the time, Sonia had been without a home for about three years.
Sonia's interview was part of the first wave of VI-SPDAT assessments conducted for Tucson's Coordinated Entry pilot. The Coordinated Entry system is designed to prioritize and assist Veterans and chronically homeless individuals based on their level of vulnerability and embraces a "housing first" philosophy, operating with harm reduction principles within the safe environment of a home.
Sonia was the first individual matched with housing under the new system. To date, more than 80 Veterans and chronically homeless individuals have been matched with housing and about 15 clients have been able to move into permanent housing through this system.
I, Rudy Trinidad, a Housing Navigator and Case Manager for the Pasadera Behavioral Network, met Sonia a week and a half after she filled out the VI-SPDAT. When I met her, she had a big smile on her face. She was amazed that she was contacted about permanent supportive housing (PSH) so quickly after completing the survey. I helped her prepare the documentation she needed to qualify for the Pasadera PSH program, which is funded through the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care. She chose a place in a recovery based living community to help her address her substance use issues, which contributed to the job loss that led to her homelessness. A few weeks later, she had her own fully furnished studio apartment.
04/23/2015 - Federal Partners Move Forward on HMIS Alignment & Integration, Announce MOU on Roles & Responsibilities
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Community Planning and Development, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, and U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs' Veteran Health Administration have recently announced a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that sets forth shared understanding of each agency's respective roles and responsibilities regarding the use of Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS).
We know that using data to make smart decisions drives improvement in results. The more effectively we can collect, analyze, share, and coordinate around a common set of data, the more effectively we can inform action to end homelessness. For most communities, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) are the primary data systems to capture information about families, youth, and individuals experiencing homelessness as well as information about the provision of housing and services to homeless individuals and families and persons at risk of homelessness.
HMIS helps us not only understand the impact our programs are having, it helps us better understand who our programs are engaging and how effective that engagement is. Action is underway now at the Federal level to integrate and align HMIS across Federal programs, which will help break down silos between services and programs and improve the effectiveness of our services and programs.
04/23/2015 - The Supportive Housing Opportunities Planner (SHOP) Tool: Setting a Path to End Chronic Homelessness Locally
By Lindsay Knotts
Much of my passion for ending homelessness comes from my time on the front-lines where I worked to connect very vulnerable people – adults with disabling conditions who had often spent years without a safe and stable place to call home – to permanent supportive housing. Even in my small city, there were times when units were not available for people who needed them the most. We simply didn't have enough permanent supportive housing units, and even the units that we had were not always being targeted to people experiencing chronic homelessness. We know that this is too often the case in many communities across the country.
The Obama Administration is committed to ending chronic homelessness nationally in 2017. Achieving this goal nationally is only possible if we achieve it locally. To do so, communities across the country must have enough available permanent supportive housing units to serve people currently experiencing chronic homelessness and to prevent people with disabling conditions from becoming chronically homeless in the future.
A critical first step to achieving our shared goal is to determine the specific combination of strategies needed to increase the availability of permanent supportive housing locally, which really depends on each community's supply and availability. Some communities with a large supply of permanent supportive housing can make significant progress towards the goal just by improving the targeting of existing units. Most communities will also need to create new supportive housing through both targeted grants and mainstream resources.

The seminars are taught by local health experts and provide guests with a forum to hear current trends and treatments as well as the opportunity to ask questions. One attendee described the seminars as, "the doctor's appointment you've been meaning to schedule but haven't had time."
Several seminars will also be hosted by Riverton City throughout the year at the Sandra Lloyd Community Center.
If you have questions about the health seminars, please contact Steven Tew at email@example.com or 801-285-2017.

I'm writing an editor and I have a problem which means calling native file save/open dialog from my opengl app. The editor is written with my in-game opengl gui. So i came up with idea that when user press "load" or "save", I will create a thread which will create required (non-visible) wx window and it will call wxFileDialog and after the job is done I will delete that thread. Is it possible or maybe there are better aproaches to acces file open/save dialog in cross platform way from an opengl app?
As others have already said, the simplest solution is to use wxWidgets for the main loop and wxGLCanvas for OpenGL stuff.
But if this is impossible, for some reason, you should indeed be able to use wxWidgets from another thread. Just remember that wxWidgets GUI functionality can only be used from a single thread so you need to initialize it from that thread too. And, of course, you'll need to handle thread synchronization yourself as wxWidgets won't know anything about the rest of your program.
wxWidget has a OpenGL widget. Put your OpenGL stuff into this one, forward the event received by the widget to your GUI system, then you'll not have to battle for the event loop.
If you are using GLUT, or equivalent, then you do NOT have a cross-platform framework. If you want a cross-platform app, then your will have to choose a framework ( e.g wxWidgets or Qt or whatever ) and proceed from there. Otherwise, you can use the native calls to the windows API if you are on windows, and the equivalent on other platforms.
GLUT only gives you a console style application. If you want a GUI, then you have to choose a GUI framework, even if you do not want cross-platform. There as many to choose from, the choice mostly depends on which you are most familiar with. Then you add the calls to the OpenGL library from you GUI application, however built. This way, you do not have to muck around with multiple threads.
It may be that you have a massive investment in your GLUT application, and do not wish to discard it merely to get a few GUI capabilities. In this case, I recommend building a new GUI app, separate from your GLUT application, which communicates with your existing app using a socket ( or other interprocess com system ) but runs in a separate process. This way you will not encounter all the ghastly, hard to fix bugs, created by multithreaded apps.

In 3 1/2 Minutes, Ten Bullets, two lives intersected and were forever altered. On Black Friday 2012, two cars parked next to each other at a Florida gas station.

Red Sox still confident in Foulke
FORT MYERS - The Red Sox are 35 days and 20 exhibitions into camp, yet they're no closer this morning to answering the spring's biggest question than they were on Feb. 18.
What can they expect from Keith Foulke in 2006?
An early indication will come this afternoon, when Foulke follows Curt Schilling in a Triple-A game at City of Palms Park.
Boston's would-be closer — who received his third and final injection of an artificial joint lubricant in his left knee this week — will face hitters in a game for the first time this spring, a significant step that could lead to Foulke pitching to big leaguers as early as Saturday.
"Foulkie deserves my confidence because he's done it, and he's done it about as good as anybody in baseball," manager Terry Francona said. "This isn't last year. What he can do is so good, if he comes out and gives up a home run, I don't think you bail on him."
Foulke threw 21 pitches to Red Sox minor leaguers last Saturday, the first time he'd faced hitters since surgery cut short an injury-plagued 2005 in which he recorded 15 saves, blew four and posted a career-worst 5.91 ERA. Despite the late start and the two-week cycle on Synvisc, the lubricant injected directly into the 33-year-old's knees, Francona said he considers the closer's job Foulke's "to excel in," not lose, over the next 10 days.
The manager will accompany the team to Fort Lauderdale to play the Orioles, but bench coach Brad Mills and GM Theo Epstein will stay behind to monitor "how the ball's coming out of (Foulke's) hand and his command" in particular, Francona said.
"He doesn't care where he's pitching," he added. "If he's throwing the way he's (been) throwing, I don't know that it matters."
- RELATED: Staying out of harm's way (3/24/06)
Depending on Foulke's progress this afternoon against Ottawa, Baltimore's International League affiliate, the righty could return as soon as Saturday at home against Toronto. Regardless of the outing, Francona said he's not concerned with the lateness of Foulke's debut, in spite of his importance in a bullpen that sank to last in the AL in his absence last season.
"I don't think he views it (as uncertainty), so you feel good about that," Francona said. "I think he feels pretty good about himself."
RELIEF FOR PAPELBON: Francona informed 25-year-old Jonathan Papelbon, who had a 5.50 ERA in five starts this spring, that he'll open the season in the Red Sox bullpen.
"We explained everything and he gave you the answer we're looking for — 'I just want to win,'" Francona said. "I wanted to make sure he understood this is not a demotion. Last year, having minimal major league experience, we were very comfortable getting him into a game. We'll be that way again."
Papelbon was 3-1 with a 3.00 ERA in 18 innings out of the pen in 2005, a season that saw him make his big league debut after opening the year at Double-A Portland. Though Mike Timlin will retain the set-up role, Papelbon, who closed games at Mississippi State and was instrumental in Boston clinching its third straight playoff appearance, would be the likely replacement if Foulke falters.
The announcement, following the Bronson Arroyo trade to Cincinnati earlier this week, sets up a four-man rotation of Schilling, Tim Wakefield, Josh Beckett and Matt Clement to start the season. David Wells, rehabbing from knee surgery this spring, will likely make his first start April 12 against Toronto.
Clement, whose name had swirled in trade talks nearly as much as Arroyo's over the winter, said he believed all along he'd open the season in Boston.
"They told me I was starting the first game in Baltimore (on April 7) since the day I walked into camp," said Clement, who allowed six hits, three runs, struck out five and walked three in six innings of Minnesota's 4-3 win Thursday at Hammond Stadium. "I'm ready to do a good job, and to me, it doesn't matter if I'm first, fifth or third. I just want to go out there and have a chance to make 30-plus starts and do my job."
ROSTER CUTS: The Red Sox cut their camp number to 37 on Thursday, optioning infielder Alejandro Machado to Triple-A Pawtucket and reassigning outfielder Ron Calloway and right-hander Jimmy Serrano to the minor league camp.
The 23-year-old Machado, who was acquired from Washington last spring and made his major league debut as a September call-up in 2005, had 10 hits and five RBIs in a team-high 38 at-bats this spring.
"That's a pretty good player," Francona said. "I just think he's not going to make our club to start the year, so let's have him go play a little bit. He's at the stage where the more innings he plays, the better he'll be."
CAN'T BEAT THE PRICE: The Triple-A game against Ottawa at City of Palms Park will be open to the public and free of admission. Gates open at 11:30 a.m.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Two of the last four in Jerry Palm's bracket this morning were Penn State and Rhode Island.
That's another way of saying neither could afford a bad loss in the final weekend of the regular season.
And that's why it's safe to say Penn State and Rhode Island really screwed-up today.
The Nittany Lions lost to Iowa (i.e., a bad team).
The Rams lost to UMass (i.e., a bad team).
By RPI standards, that's Penn State's worst loss of the season and Rhode Island's second-worst loss of the season. Both schools' RPIs subsequently dropped into the 60s (Rhode Island is 63; Penn State is 64). And when you consider that no team with an RPI of 60 or worse received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament last season, it's fair to assume Penn State and Rhode Island will enter their conference tournaments with some work to do.

Jaws: Dansby playing with a chip on his shoulder
An Arizona Cardinal for the first six seasons of his career, Karlos Dansby had a rough go when he left Glendale for Miami, becoming a Dolphin.
But his homecoming in 2013, which came as a result of being cut by the Dolphins, has been extremely sweet, by all accounts.
"He's played terrific football," ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski told the Burns and Gambo show on Thursday.
To date, Dansby leads the Cardinals in tackles with 100 on the year -- just one shy of his 2012 total.
"I know Karlos pretty well and we all know the attitude he has," Jaws went on. "He considers himself a great player and you love guys with that kind of confidence."
Dansby's ending in Miami was known to not have gone well, as Jaworski noted.
"Things didn't work out for him in Miami, so you know he left there with a chip on his shoulder," he said.
"And there's nothing better than a player with a chip on his shoulder (who) wants to prove a lot of people wrong."
The linebacker has a career-high three interceptions, scoring two touchdowns and six sacks, just shy of his high of eight in 2006.
"Karlos Dansby has certainly been that player this year."

Tonsillectomy May Reduce Number of Sore Throat Days in Children
April 2015
A systematic review found that participants given chewing gum after abdominal surgery may have a faster return to normal for their digestive system. Unfortunately, the quality of trials is low and more research will need to be done before this simple solution is confirmed.

To the Editor:I am writing in response to the article titled "On the Move: Should PTs teach children with disabilities to crawl?" (June 9, 2003 print edition).
In the article, author Ginny Paleg presents convincing evidence from the literature that crawling is an important developmental milestone that aids in the development of effective and appropriate neuronal pathways, visual-perceptual skills, and upper extremity function. Paleg also dispels false assumptions regarding crawling, identifying no correlation between creeping skills and upright locomotion with no generalization of motor learning between these two distinct skills. Finally, Paleg appropriately presents concerns about patterning approaches, such as Doman-Delacato, to facilitate crawling in young children.
While the information presented in the article is sound and informative, the idea that creeping should not be a focus of a physical therapy treatment plan for a child with developmental disabilities is the subject of my disagreement. In my opinion, the underlying theme of the article may be more accurately reflected in a subtitle reading: "Should PTs treat upper extremity deficits?" Paleg asserts, "toning shoulders, arms and hands. is best addressed through occupational therapy."
While occupational therapists are skilled in facilitating effective upper extremity function, we should not limit our scope of practice to lower extremity function exclusively. In the course of my physical therapy training, I learned anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics of the whole body as a functioning unit. We are doing our patients a disservice if we do not treat our patients as such.
Many children with physical disabilities have proximal weaknesses that are effectively addressed by practice in a quadruped position, requiring upper and lower extremity weight bearing as well as co-contractions of abdominal and spinal extensor musculature.
Clearly, crawling is no pre-requisite to walking and is not essential for functional ambulation. However, should we, as physical therapists, count creeping out as a useful, appropriate and efficacious skill to address the needs of developing children? Should we limit our practice to only little legs and feet or should we treat the whole child?

Southern Alberta Golf Courses Hit Hard By Massive Floods
Last Updated on Wednesday, 26 June 2013 22:29 Wednesday, 26 June 2013 22:14
Gord Montgomery (iG)
With the loss of life and the devastating after-effects of the flood waters that swept through, and over, southern Alberta in the past week, golf course closures sit far from the top of the list of priority items that have been lost and/or damaged.
Yet at the same time, those recreational facilities are the livelihood for many and as such, those people and businesses are touched in a disastrous way as well as more and more tracks report they may be closed for a period of time that could extend to months and perhaps, in some cases, years.
