I think West Virginia is a state that Senator Mccain is committed to the reality is that Senator Mccain is building a national campaign and that's going to require a lot of work in travelling all around the country including West Virginia so that state can certainly expect to see him. JOHN MCCAIN IS SCHEDULED TO VISIT WEST VIRGINIA THIS FRIDAY, MAY 16TH...ALTHOUGH MCCAIN'S CAMPAIGN HEADQUARTERS SAID THEY STILL CAN'T RELEASE EXACT DETAILS ON THE VISIT.

BARRY COPELY IS IN THE MINORITY HERE IN WEST VIRGINA, A STATE THAT WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY GO OVERWHELMINGLY TOWARDS SENATOR CLINTON. MANY HERE AGREE WITH CLARENCE CRUTCHFIELD. "I'm voting for Mrs. Clinton-over Obama." THE CLINTON CLAN HAS CAMPAIGNED HARD IN THE STATE OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS, WITH MIXED RESULTS. SOME VOTERS MADE THEIR DECISION IN MARCH WHEN OBAMA MADE HIS FIRST AND ONLY STOP HERE BEFORE YESTERDAY. "When did you make up your mind? Probably two months ago. OTHER'S CONTINUE TO EDGE TOWARDS THE ILLINOIS SENATOR. "I was leaning towards Clinton but I'm slowly starting to change my mind." TIME'S RUNNING OUT, WEST VIRGINIANS WILL MAKE THEIR VOICES HEARD BY 7-30 AND IN THIS HEAVILY DEMOCRATIC STATE, CLINTON SUPPORTERS AND OBAMA'S AGREE ON ONE THING.

Return to Story IndexBABY STEPS 5/12
MILLIONS OF KIDS GET HURT PLAYING SPORTS EVERY YEAR. IN THIS WEEKS BABY STEPS, DOCTOR JOE MATUSIC WARNS US THAT PROPER PRE-GAME WARM-UPS ARE ESSENTIAL. Kids love to get up and get moving. Inspiring them to do it and work toward a healthy, athletic lifestyle is a good idea. But before your child gets moving, they have to get ready for their activity. And that always involves stretching. Pediatrician Joe Matusic sees many cases of sports injuries. Dr. Joe Matusic The competitve people, the highly motivated kids are the ones I worry about the most. make sure they're stretching. In baseball make sure they're throwing the balls for 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure they're stretching longer than you think they should. That stretching will get their muscles ready for action. Dr. Joe Matusic Fifteen, 20, 30 minutes, because that's where you get most of your injuries, from not stretching enough. Not warming up enough. But those highly motivated young athletes dr. matusic sees, are most at risk for developing repetitive stress injuries. They are most likely going to be driven to play-through their injuries... and in the end, making it worse. Dr. Joe Matusic It makes it worse than if they would have taken a couple of days off. Then they wouldn't have had this big injury. Doctors also see a lot of foot injuries associated with basketball and soccer... but all sports have their fare share of potential injuries. Dr. Matusic suggests just observing, and talking to your child to make sure they know when to ask for a time out. IF YOU'RE CHILD HAS AN ACUTE INJURY-- THAT'S ANY MUSCLE OR JOINT INJURY, REMEMBER THE ACRONYM RICE R-I-C-E... REST, ICE, COMPRESSION, AND ELEVATION.
