RFP Testing Provides a Safer Sporting Environment for Athletes
“The King-Devick Test is beneficial to me because it’s a sideline objective test. It’s easy to use and allows me to have another sound backing in my assessments of a head injury. Since I have been involved with the K-D Test, I have had nothing but positive outcomes. The athletes seemed to have taken well to it, and it’s not overwhelming to implement within an already established head injury protocol. All-in-all the King-Devick Test has proven its worth by its ease of use, validity, and time-efficient objectivity.” ~ Rickey Perales, ATC, Head Athletic Trainer at St. Laurence High School As a parent I had my reservations about my daughter playing…

Race Car Driver Greg Tracy Pushes Life to the Limit!
It is always fun to see what friends from high school end up doing with their lives! Some have gone on to do things that are pretty extraordinary and my friend Greg Tracy is one of them! It isn’t everyday that someone breaks a World Record or wins one of the most difficult car races in the world. He has won the Pike’s Peak race 7 times which once you see the actual race track you’ll be pretty amazed. I had a hard time watching one of his YouTube clips showing his view while racing around the cliffs. And he and another driver raced the “Hot Wheels Double Loop Dare” that took…

Let’s get this spring party going! Work on Forgotten Projects: If you have pushed aside some household projects…

What’s For Dinner? Roasted Garlic Chicken with Thyme
Yesterday, a friend told me about this great Roasted Garlic Chicken Recipe that her whole family loves and that it is really easy to make. I am always up for simple and healthy recipes that my family will actually eat. My husband is not a big meat or seafood eater (yes, makes for interesting dinners) so I have to look for recipes that he might like as well. My daughter is fairly easy to please as long as it isn’t too spicy. When I heard what was included in this recipe: chicken, potatoes, garlic, tomatoes, fresh thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper I was sold. That is a fairly easy shopping list so…
