The team gave up one more goal, but were able to hold on for the victory. t Paying Tribute It's a subject that doesn't come up often around the office - thankfully - but one that provokes a great deal of discussion and wide ranging opinions when it does. Paying tribute to the deceased. The topic came up recently with the departing of a couple of longtime Bowmanvillc residents who spent much of their lives devoting time to sports and recreation in the area. Their death notices appeared in the classified section, but tributes didn't appear in this column. And some people were left wondering why? It's a justifiable question, and one which is difficult to answer without offending anyone. Since my hiring just over nine years ago, there have been a number number of people who have passed away that made significant contributions contributions to the sporting community. community. And many of them, like most volunteers, donated their time year-round. They were the type who could be counted on. It's common in the larger daily newspapers for columnists to pay homage to a close friend, or colleague, who passes on. Often a writer will reflect on the positive contribution the dearly departed made, or relate some personal experience shared between the two that has developed into a fond memory. The best tributes are often written by columnists who have established themselves over a number of years, and can relate countless stories about their subject, giving readers an insight that they arc not normally privy to. My biggest concern in doing such columns is how to decide who is deserving of such recognition and who isn't? It's not a decision that anyone would be terribly comfortable making. To write one tribute would set a precedent of having to do so each time somebody in the sporting community passes away. And the danger in that is trying to come up with a reason why someone didn't get any recognition when grieving mourners inquire as to why their family member was left out. My biggest fear is to overlook someone. Who am I to decide which people are deserving of extra mention in a column? For example, is somebody who has been the president of a minor sports organization organization for a number of years any more important then the person who may have played music for the skating club, or sold 50/50 tickets at a team function? Certainly not in the eyes of family members involved in each situation. And what about the person who has devoted their entire life as a volunteer, working quietly behind the scenes and receiving little recognition at their own request? There are countless people out there who would fit into that scenario whose name I wouldn't even recognize recognize if it appeared in a death notice. It's not fair to neglect neglect them. It certainly hasn't been out of ignorance that descrv-: ing tributes haven't been written in the past. Nor has it been out of disrespect for the family members who may have been looking for a small mention. Is it right to mention some and overlook others? Is it right not to mention anybody at all? And if you do mention mention somebody, what criteria should be used to determine who gets special mention? All are questions that have been posed around here. And based on the comments, there are no right or wrong answers.

The rotator cuff is a set of four muscles of the shoulder. They are so-called because they form a cuff for the shoulder joint. Three are In the back and one is in the front. The rotator cuff muscles muscles connect the shoulder blade to the upper arm, which is the humerus via tendons. tendons. When the tendons become Inflamed, the result is rotator cuff tendonitis, or ■ Inflammation of the tendons. Sports where athletes are particularly prone to rotator cuff tendonitis Include golf, baseball, tennis and swimming. The important thing In treatment with respect to rotator cuff tendonitis Is to realize the principle that no muscle operates independently, independently, all muscles work In pairs and they pull against one another like a pulley system. system. In the shoulder, one of the muscles that works with the rotator cull Is the chost muscles called the poclora- lls. What happens when you got rotator cuff tendonitis Is that the length tension of Iho muscles, and therefore the tendons have boon changed, Sj.î The most common presentation presentation is that the shoulder joint, or the humerus or upper arm, turns in and forwards. We say it Internally rotates and anteriorizes. When this happens, happens, not only is the rotator cuff or tendon painful, but also the chest muscles, or pectorals, form very tight knots in them that keep the rotator cuff from functioning properly. This happens in each and every case where rotator cuff tendonitis results. Therefore, in treatment, simply treating the rotator cuff itself, where the tendon is hurt, is not sufficient to resolve the problem. As much as the tendon is now overstretched, the front of the shoulder joint, because of the chest muscles, or pcctoralis muscles, are now overtightened. Treatment Involves restoring the proper length tension of both sol of muscles, muscles, taking out the knots, what wo call trigger points, in the chest muscles, as well as treating the Inflammation In Iho rotator cull tendon.
