Also gone was his ability to taste and smell. Savoring his favorite food — meatloaf — was out of the question.The doctors told McArthur he would never play baseball again.They told his mother, Valerie Bullock, that he would be paralyzed and unable to truly communicate. But Bullock had no doubt her son would come back to play again."My faith never, ever wavered from the fact that he'd be back and he'd be stronger," Bullock said.She woke up at 7 a.m. every day to take care of her son, driving him to a rehab clinic three times per week in Clearwater from late November 2003 through January 2004, and she watched as he struggled to relearn the game of baseball.McArthur called her his "stone" through the process.Four years later, there's not much to complain about. He regained all his motor functions, his swing and his spot on the team, and the only thing he's missing is his sense of smell and taste."I can tell hot and cold, but that's about it," McArthur said.
This year, the American people will choose between two diametrically ...
The Democratic Party looks at our nation and sees the twilight of the American soul. Republicans affirm that now, as throughout history, the spiritual and intellectual genius of the American people will create a better nation and maintain a just peace. To Republicans, creativity and growth are imperatives for a new era of opportunity for all. The Republican Party's vision of America's future, the heart of our 1984 Platform, begins with a basic premise: From freedom comes opportunity; from opportunity comes growth; from growth comes progress. This is not some abstract formula. It is the vibrant, beating heart of the American experience. No matter how complex our problems, no matter how difficult our tasks, it is freedom that inspires and guides the American Dream.

Movie Talk
These may well land me in hot water with many a fine reader. But what do they really know? "Gone With the Wind" — I can tolerate only a few minutes here and there. "A Christmas Story" — I'd rather watch "White Christmas" or "It's a Wonderful Life" or "The Ref" or "A Midnight Clear" or, naturally, "The Nightmare Before Christmas," or "Die Hard" or even "Home Alone." ALAN P.S. I dare not send you my 60th anniversary "It's a Wonderful Life" bell with Zuzu's petals. So you get my "Beowulf" fake fur piece and an "Ask Alan Smithee" T-shirt. Dear Mr. Smithee, What actor has appeared (in at least a big enough role to be named in the credits) in the most movies that have won the Oscar for best picture? Morgan Freeman was in at least three: "Driving Miss Daisy," "The Unforgiven" and "Million Dollar Baby." GEORGE BARTON, Sharpsburg Dear Give Credit Where Credit Is Due, Three actors have appeared in five best-picture Oscar winners: Wallis Clark, Franklyn Farnum and Bess Flowers.

Food shortage sparks Cuba-style rationing
Venezuela has adopted an unprecedented system of food rationing similar to the ration cards used in Cuba, after several months of food shortages that have caused popular discontent. The Ministry of Nutrition announced last week that beneficiaries of the government's food distribution program would only be allowed one purchase a day. The amount of food allocated to each family would be based on a ''social study'' the government performed, it said. QUEUING FOR FOOD Earlier this year, the government created a distribution network known as Pdval -- financed by the state-run oil company Petróleos de Venezuela, or PDVSA -- to solve shortages of groceries like beef, eggs and milk that have sparked long lines in recent months. According to Asdrubal Chávez, President Hugo Chávez's cousin and the coordinator for Pdval, the distribution centers will now keep a registry of families shopping at each center to ensure that no home receives a ''surplus'' of staple products.
10 surprising ways to keep your heart healthy
We're listing them here so you can see how easy it is to reduce your risk of heart disease. You've still got to jog and eat broccoli, of course. But these other easy behaviors might just mean no one will ever have to dial 911 on your behalf. Good deeds do come back to you When you do a good deed or give a compliment, some of the benefits rub off on you. You get a dose of well-being simply from making others feel good. Dr. Stephen Post, author of "Why Good Things Happen to Good People" (Broadway, 2007, $24), calls it a "helper's high" and links volunteering to better health. Research backs him up. A study of 600 older adults, published in the Journal of Health Psychology found those who volunteered the most were 44 percent less likely to die during a five-year period.

The guys who should be upset were the ones who were not on them but were competing against those who were." The 5-foot-10 inch, 180-pound Ury sometimes found himself competing for spots against guys who were much bigger and stronger. "I got beat out by guys who were 6-3, 220," he said. "They beat me out, and that is all I can say. Baseball looks at guys differently right now, partly because of how big and strong these guys have become. They're into the power and the speed. Maybe 20 years ago, I'd have a chance. I would get my hit per game, go 1-for-3 or 1-for-4, maybe hit a double. But a scout told me that scouts no longer go looking for Josh Urys. They look for the A-Rod's who are going to sell tickets. It has become all about power and speed now." West Morris standout Josh Boyd had the day off from school Thursday and pondered baseball's steroid problem in the hours leading up to the 2:30 p.m.
