When the next school year starts in September, any student athlete in New Jersey suspected of suffering a concussion will be removed from practices and games until a doctor signs a note declaring it safe to return to play. That's the law that Governor Christie signed Tuesday at the New Meadowlands Stadium. Putting aside politics, the Republican governor traded jokes with the bill's sponsor, state Sen. Richard J. Codey, D- Essex, as 17 middle-school players from a Morris County youth football team looked on.
REDLANDS - Husband and wife team Patty and Dominic Bracone of Highland, were ready to scare up a good time Wednesday at the Joslyn Senior Center-sponsored Spooky Barbecue and Party. Dressed as a hula dancer and a doctor, the duo participated in a number of activities - like games and puzzles - with close to 40 people in attendance.
PARIS - Saturday did not get off to a particularly auspicious start for Americans in Paris. Playing simultaneously across the Roland Garros grounds in the morning, Andy Roddick lost in straight sets, the top-seeded Bryan twins did the same in doubles, and Serena Williams felt so dizzy and weak while dropping five consecutive games that she sought a doctor's attention before eventually turning things around to win.
White feeling better ASPEN, Colo. -- Shaun White received what a Winter X Games doctor called a thorough medical evaluation before he was cleared to head back down the superpipe after a skull-rattling accident left him seeing stars.

Left fielder Jose Tabata said Sunday that his tight right hamstring, which he injured Saturday night, would only cost him two games. But manager Clint Hurdle refuted that notion Monday in San Diego. "Not only is he a 22-year-old left fielder, he's a part-time doctor," Hurdle said. Tabata said it was Hurdle who told him that he'd miss two games. But Hurdle said that wasn't true, and what he said was they would reassess the situation in two days. San Diego native Jeff Karstens, who's scheduled to start tonight for the Pirates, is 0-3 with a 5.65 ERA in four career appearances against the Padres. He was on the mound opposite Mat Latos last year at PNC Park and gave up four runs -- two earned -- in six innings and lost a 9-2 decision.
Dear Cindy, My son, 14, and daughter, 11, are active kids but they are both overweight. They play soccer and are not inclined to sit and play video games. Their doctor said they need to watch what they are eating and drinking. I feel I fix healthy meals. They are drinking mostly juices, water and maybe one or two soft drinks a day. When they play soccer, they usually drink sports drinks. Any advice will be appreciated. - Michelle
ASPEN, Colo. - Shaun White received what a Winter X Games doctor called a thorough medical evaluation before he was cleared to head back down the superpipe after a skull-rattling accident that left him seeing stars. White told friends he was feeling better than he thought he would Saturday, the day after he slammed his face on the pipe during Winter X Games practice while trying his most difficult and dangerous trick, the Double McTwist 1260.
