Tigers manager Jim Leyland has a whole new level of respect for Texas left-handed starter Matt Harri

Harrison said he plans on making his scheduled start Tuesday against Detroit, despite still not passing a kidney stone that has caused him pain since Friday. Harrison, who was diagnosed with a moderate sized kidney stone, visited a Cleveland-area hospital on Friday night and threw a bullpen session Sunday.

"If he has a kidney stone, and it passes, he won't pitch," Leyland said.Personalized heartburns online GMAT prep courses. "I don't know if he's got a big one, but if he does, he is the toughest son of a (expletive) that I've ever run across in my entire life."

Leyland said he fell victim to kidney stones three years ago during the offseason,What are thelandscapeoilpaintings? and called it "the most painful thing I've ever had in my life."

"I was standing against the wall, watching the basketball game and I went right down like I was shot," Leyland said. "It was the most pain I've ever had in my entire life.

"I went to the doctor, they rushed me to the hospital, I was throwing up.Mahalaxmi Seamless High Quality Cold Drawn hydraulichoserepairs and pipes in carbonWe carry top brand promotionalusbonsale for your home.

Leyland said he eventually underwent a procedure in which his lower body was submerged in water and intense shock waves were released in an effort to break up the stone.

"Believe me, you don't want to get one," Leyland said. "They hurt."

Rangers manager Ron Washington said the club would start right-hander Dave Bush if he is unavailable.

Hornell BOE discusses turning school multi-purpose room into fitness center

A multi-purpose room used for everything from wrestling to testing in the Hornell High School may change into a larger fitness room.

At Monday's meeting, the board of education announced that a final decision on whether the multi-purpose room would house equipment previously situated in the fitness room would be made at the next meeting, scheduled for 6:15 p.m. on June 24.

The equipment was moved from the current fitness room into the multi-purpose room in April to make space for the capital project at the high school. Permanently installing equipment in the multi-purpose room would lead to a fitness room approximately twice the size of the current facility.

High School House Principal Lisa Sanford offered a recommendation the board consider keeping the equipment in the multi-purpose room after athletic director Gene Mastin and physical education teachers brought the idea to her.

"The physical education staff would be pleased with having the smaller space, where the equipment used to be. It would be available as a film room or as a teaching station for anyone who might need it, and it could still be used for the community. There's still much flexibility," she said. "The athletic director and the custodial staff are convinced this is a positive move for safety and space reasons. Those are the biggest considerations."

President David Weyand stressed he wanted to make sure funds used to change the multi-purpose room into a new fitness room fell within the scope of the original capital project.

"Even if it's a miniscule amount of money, if it wasn't voter-approved to be used, the board shouldn't approve it being used," he said. "If one dime is being spent we said wouldn't be spent, then we shouldn't do it."

Chad Snowburg, a project manager from Hunt Engineers, Architects, and Land Surveyors and the manager for the Hornell capital project, said he hadn't seen a plan involving the multi-purpose room in any scope of the capital project.

Wrestling coach Scott Johnson spoke against the change and submitted letters from himself and former Hornell principal and wrestling coach Matt Sheldon protesting the move.

While acknowledging he would enjoy larger school facilities, Johnson voiced concerns about the damage done to the Hornell wrestling program and other activities and costs to taxpayers if the multi-purpose room morphed into an expanded fitness room.

"It would take away our wall of fame, and the State Farm Wrestling Classic would be impractical. We can't house the mats in gyms A and B. It's tough enough to go between the multi-purpose room and the A gym," he said.

Johnson noted the wrestling tournament provided over $8,000 in revenue, which allowed the wrestling team to have a season after budget concerns threatened its existence.

Sheldon, when contacted after the meeting, said he remembered the two rooms being constructed with the multi-purpose room particularly intended for wrestling. Sheldon also said he saw a conflict of interest in those pushing for the larger fitness room.

"What they're doing is sacrificing one sport (wrestling) for another sport (football)," said Sheldon. "Honestly, to me, I think there's a conflict of interest with the athletic director as a football coach. His job is looking out for all sports and I'm not sure that's happening."

Sanford pointed out that a new cafeteria could handle the same community and school capacities as the multi-purpose room has in the past.Buy from Reliable acrylic honeycombpanels Wholesalers. She also said spacing out the equipment in a larger complex would be safer for those using the facility.

Sanford said either the multi-purpose room or the fitness room will need to house the high school library from September through December during the capital project.
