Lincoln Community Center Educational Coordinator Liz Stafford looks over the work of children from the afterschool program on Thursday, including Ahnalise Ellis and Ryder Kirtley Thursday.
Making a difference Stafford mentoring the next generation BY JIM DAVIS Staff Writer davis@tdnpublishing.com TROY — There’s a lot going on in the upstairs classroom at the Lincoln Community Center in Troy, particularly after school Monday through Thursday. A quick scan of the room reveals students between the STAFFORD ages of 3 and 7 working on various assignments, ranging from reading, writing and math homework to coloring projects. Which is precisely what After-School Program Educational Coordinator Liz Stafford intends for youth taking part in the free, after-school tutoring program at the center. “We’re trying to get them to think, and I don’t think children get enough of that anymore,” she said, pausing to take a question from a young girl who asks her to check her writing assignment. After complimenting the child for a job well 6 done, Stafford was quick
to praise the entire group of children. “All my kids are very, very special,” she said. Stafford said students in the program have embraced the motto “Pray, Aim High and Stay Focused,” which encompasses both a moral and academic approach to learning. “That’s one of the great things about working at the center — we can pray,” Stafford explained. “And that’s one of the things that they can take home with them. A child can influence a whole family into being the best that they can be.” LCC Director Shane Carter said Stafford has played an integral role in helping children accomplish that since taking over as the center’s educational coordinator in early 2012. “I pride myself in my work ethic, and to see her continue to work every day and be as enthusiastic as she is has truly motivated me,” Carter said, noting that Stafford was able to be hired through a grant from the

Troy Foundation. “She truly does it because it’s her calling from God, but she’s making an impact in their lives.” Carter said Stafford — who taught physical education for several years in Ohio cities ranging from Toledo and Vandalia to Piqua’s Bennett Junior High — is now mentoring children of students she taught or helped guide years ago. Several of them stop by the center to see how she is doing or simply say hello. “It shows me that not only is she sincere about it, but it’s that obligation she feels as an educator to give back to her community,” Carter said. “(Students are) learning from someone that really is a ‘one-of-a-kind.’” Working with assistant educational coordinator Carolyn Putnam, Stafford — who owns Stafford Uniquely Sports in downtown Troy — oversees up to 16 students in the program (LCC also has a tutoring program for students 814 taught by Tamera Moore and Pat Grove).
In addition to homework assignments from school and projects aimed at sharpening their academic skills, students also are working on a play about Rosa Parks for an upcoming performance. While this isn’t the first time she has worked at the LCC — she taught aerobics and “dancercize” classes at the center in the 1980s, and started an organization called NUBIA (New Union of Blacks to Improve America) — Stafford said she recognized a need to help young children at the center during a visit last year and came back to help make a difference. “I feel that when you love something and have a passion for it, it comes easy,” said Stafford, who will turn 83 later this year. “I think that if you can make a difference, you should … and I feel that God has given me that chance.” She already has.

(AP) — “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” This sentence spoken by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. has been quoted countless times as expressing one of America’s bedrock values, its language almost sounding like a constitutional amendment on equality. Yet today, 50 years after King shared this vision during his most famous speech, there is considerable disagreement over what it means. The quote is used to support opposing views on politics, affirmative action and programs intended to help the disadvantaged. Just as the words of the nation’s founders are parsed for modern meanings on guns and abortion, so are King’s words used in debates over the proper place of race in America. As we mark the King holiday, what might he ask of us in a time when both the president and a disproportionate number of people in poverty are black? Would King have wanted us to completely ignore race in a “colorblind” society? To consider race as one of many factors about a person? And how do we discern character? For at least two of King’s children, the future envisioned by the father has yet to arrive. “I don’t think we can ignore race,” says Martin Luther King III. “What my father is asking is to create the climate where every American can realize his or her dreams,” he says. “Now what does that mean when you have 50 million people living in poverty?” Bernice King doubts her father would seek to ignore differences. “When he talked about the beloved community, he talked about everyone bringing their gifts, their talents, their cultural experiences,” she says. “We live

in on the steps of the U.S. Capitol before a crowd expected to reach into the hundreds of thousands and a television audience counted in the millions. The trappings were in place the flag-draped stands ready outside the Capitol and the tables set inside for a traditional lunch with lawmakers. Across town, a specially made reviewing stand rested outside the White House gates for the president and guests to watch the traditional parade down Pennsylvania Avenue. A crowd of perhaps 800,000 was forecast, less than the million-plus that thronged to the nation’s capital four years ago to witness the inauguration of the first black president in American history. The weather forecast was encouraging, to a point. High temperatures were predicted for the lower 40s during the day, with scattered snow showers during the evening, when two inaugural balls closed out the official proceedings. The 44th chief executive is only the 17th to win reelection, and his secondterm goals are ambitious for a country where sharp political differences have produced gridlocked government in recent years. Restoration of the economy to full strength and pressing the worldwide campaign against terrorists sit atop the agenda. He also wants to reduce federal deficits and win immigration and gun control legislation from Congress, where Republicans control the House.

People take a picture of a group with the Martin Luther King float prepared for the 57th Presidential Inaugural Parade, Sunday in Washington. Thousands are planning to march in the 57th Presidential Inauguration parade after the ceremonial swearing-in of President Barack Obama today.
Obama’s Inauguration Day is a day for MLK Jr., too WASHINGTON (AP) — Today’s inaugural may be President Barack Obama’s big day, but Martin Luther King Jr. will loom large over the festivities. A quirk in the calendar pushed Obama’s public swearing-in onto the national holiday honoring the slain civil rights leader, and inaugural planners have taken pains to acknowledge that fact. Going into his second term, Obama seems to have put King at the front of his mind, too. The president has referenced King in speeches, and a weekend of inaugural festivities opened Saturday with a National Day of Service in King’s honor. Obama and his family helped spruce up an elementary school in southeast Washington. The Obamas also have performed community service work on the King holiday in each of the past four years. Obama spoke at the 2011 dedication of a memorial to King on the National Mall and is likely to include King in his inaugural address today. The president has said King is one of two people he admires “more than anybody in American history.” President Abraham Lincoln is the other. In a nod to that admiration, Obama will take his ceremonial oath of office today using Bibles owned by both men. Lincoln’s Bible, which Obama also sites. “I think he’s more disrespected than any other president,” she added, referring to his critics. Sean Payton, an operations analyst from Highland Ranch, Colo., said he hoped to hear “a nice eloquent speech that makes people feel good about being an American.” Republicans lent a touch of bipartisanship to the weekend. “We always want any president to succeed, to do well, that means America does well and Americans do well,” Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
used in 2009, will rest on top of King’s, which is larger. “The movements they represent are the only reason that it’s possible for me to be inaugurated,” Obama said in a video released by inaugural planners. Obama is perhaps the most high-profile result of King’s quest for civil rights and racial equality in the U.S. He credits King for his own political victories, particularly the 2008 election win that lifted him over the highest hurdle for minorities in American politics. Even with that, there are distinctions in their styles. While King was a staunch advocate for the poor and downtrodden, Obama has been faulted by critics who say he’s been reluctant to push issues of concern to black people and take steps to reduce high rates of black unemployment. Where King opposed wars in general and was an unwavering advocate of nonviolence, Obama has shown himself to be willing to target and kill leaders of terrorist groups overseas. Fredrick Harris, director of Columbia University’s Center on AfricanAmerican Politics and Society, argues that Obama’s reluctance to bring black issues to the forefront undermines the work of King and other civil rights leaders whose efforts made his presidency possible. Obama took the oath in the White House Blue Room where portraits of Presidents John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and John Tyler grace the walls. He placed a hand on a Bible held by his wife. His daughters stood nearby. The nation’s political divisions seemed scarcely to intrude as Obama, a Democrat, shook hands with Roberts, a Republican appointee, in a rite that renews American democracy every four years. Unlike four years ago, when Roberts stumbled verbally, the chief justice recited the oath without error.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A 15-year-old boy remained in custody Sunday night as detectives tried to piece together what led to the shooting of five people, including three young children, who were found dead in a New Mexico home. The teenager was arrested on murder and other charges in connection with the shootings, which happened Saturday night at the home in a rural area southwest of downtown Albuquerque, said Lt. Sid Covington, a Bernalillo County sheriff ’s spokesman. Detectives did not immediately release the victims’ names, but word of the shootings traveled quickly through the law enforcement community, and officials began offering their condolences for Greg Griego, a spiritual leader known for his work with firefighters and the 13 years he spent as a volunteer chaplain at the county jail. “Chaplin Griego was a dedicated professional that passionately served his fellow man and the firefighters of this community,” Fire Chief James Breen said in a statement. “His calming spirit and gentle nature
will be greatly missed.” Jail Chief Ramon Rustin said Griego was instrumental in the creation of the Metropolitan Detention Center’s chaplain program and worked to get inmates integrated back into the community. Griego also was a former member of the pastoral staff at Calvary, a Christian church in Albuquerque. As part of his work there, he oversaw the Straight Street program for jail inmates. Covington said detectives were working to positively identify the five victims as well as the teenager’s relationship to them. “Right now we’re to the meticulous points of processing the scene and collecting physical evidence, and this is a vast scene with a lot of physical evidence,” Covington said. Authorities said each victim suffered more than one gunshot wound, and several guns were found at the home, one of which was a semi-automatic militarystyle rifle. Investigators were trying to determine who owned the guns. Authorities also declined to release details of any conversation that the 15-year-old had with investigators.
King • CONTINUED FROM A1 in a society where we may have differences, of course, but we learn to celebrate these differences.” The meaning of King’s monumental quote is more complex today than in 1963 because “the unconscious signals have changed,” says the historian Taylor Branch, author of the acclaimed trilogy “America in the King Years.” Fifty years ago, bigotry was widely accepted. Today, Branch says, even though prejudice is widely denounced, many people unconsciously pre-judge others. “Unfortunately race in American history has been one area in which Americans kid themselves and pretend to be fairminded when they really are not,” says Branch, whose new book is “The King Years: Historic Moments in the Civil Rights Movement.” Branch believes that today, King would ask people of all backgrounds not just whites to deepen their patriotism by leaving their comfort zones, reaching across barriers and learning about different people. “To remember that we all have to stretch ourselves to build the ties that bind a democracy, which really is the source of our strength,” Branch says. Bernice King says her father is asking us “to get to a place we’re obviously not there but to get to a place where the first thing that we utilize as a measurement is not someone’s external designation, but it really is trying to look beyond that into the sub-
stance of a person in making certain decisions, to rid ourselves of those kinds of prejudices and biases that we often bring to decisions that we make.” That takes a lot of “psychological work,” she says, adding, “He’s really challenging us.” For many conservatives, the modern meaning of King’s quote is clear: Special consideration for one racial or ethnic group is a violation of the dream. The quote is like the Declaration of Independence, says Roger Clegg, president of the Center for Equal Opportunity, a conservative think tank that studies race and ethnicity. In years past, he says, America may have needed to grow into the words, but today they must be obeyed to the letter. “The Declaration of Independence says all men are created equal,” Clegg says. “Nobody thinks it doesn’t really mean what it says because Thomas Jefferson owned slaves. King gave a brilliant and moving quotation, and I think it says we should not be treating people differently on the basis of skin color.” Many others agree. King’s quote has become a staple of conservative belief that “judged by the color of their skin” includes things such as unique appeals to certain voter groups, reserving government contracts for Hispanic-owned businesses, seeking more non-white corporate executives, or admitting black students to college with lower test scores.

Claire Fraley, at third-grade student at Covington Elementary uses a clicker. Using clickers in the classroom is a way to engage the students in active learning. The teacher can use these devices to measure the students’ level of understanding before a lesson and then after a lesson. Clickers can be used to gain an understanding of how individuals in that particular group learn best and lessons can then be customized to each class.

Martin Luther King
"We will not resort to violence. We will not degrade ourselves with hatred. Love will not be returned with hate." --Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a black clergyman who is ranked among the greatest of black Americans because of his crusade to win full civil rights for his people. Preaching nonviolence, much in the same way as had Mahatma Gandhi of India, Martin Luther King Jr. spoke and campaigned tirelessly to rid the United States of traditions and laws that forced on black Americans the status of secondclass citizens. Among these laws ed voting by blacks. were those in some states that In the late 1950s and early required black people to take back seats in buses or which obstruct- 1960s, African Americans, led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., used boycotts, marches and other forms of nonviolent protest to demand equal treatment under the law and an end to racial prejudice. A high point of this civil rights movement came on Aug. 28, 1963, when more than 200,000 people of all races gathered in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., to hear King say: "I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves

and the sons of former slaveholders will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood ... I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." (Read and listen to Dr. King's “I Have a Dream” speech) Not long afterwards the U.S. Congress passed laws prohibiting discrimination in voting, education, employment, housing and public accommodations. The world was shocked when Dr. King was assassinated in 1968. Ever since, special memorial services have marked his birthday on Jan. 15. By vote of Congress, the third Monday of every January, beginning in 1986, is now a federal holiday in Dr. King's honor.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” — First Amendment, U.S. Constitution
EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Democrat and Chronicle, Rochester, N.Y. on the 113th Congress: The transition in Congress from one of the least productive in memory to the most diverse in history is a welcome change — but one that will be but a footnote without new members agitating the old guard for action. The previous 112th Congress was a failure of historic proportions, passing fewer bills than any in the post-World War II era. Its most noteworthy accomplishments were negative: a knock-down, drag-out in 2011 over raising the federal debt ceiling that resulted in the nation’s credit rating being lowered, and subsequent failure to resolve related budgeting issues that led to last month’s “fiscal cliff” debacle. The 113th Congress sworn in on Jan. 3 doesn’t just boast new blood, but new perspectives. More than 100 women, 43 African-Americans, 31 Latinos, 12 AsianAmericans and seven openly gay or bisexual members are among the ranks. Religious diversity is likewise broad, including the first Buddhist senator and first Hindu represenAs I tative.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe included in his Cabinet political allies who have expressed a hawkish stance on territorial issues. This, combined with Abe’s call for revising the war-renouncing Article 9 of the Constitution and exercising the right to collective self-defense, has raised concerns among Chinese officials. But after his Liberal Democratic Party’s overwhelming victory in the Dec. 16 Lower House election, Abe said that since the Japan-China relations are extremely important, he would like to make efforts to return bilateral ties to the “initial point of mutually beneficial strategic relations.” It is hoped that the prime minister will take concrete steps in this direction. In the election campaign, the LDP proposed stationing public servants on the Senkaku Islands. Fortunately, the Abe administration has put off implementing this reckless election promise, which would further damage bilateral ties. China seems to hope that Abe will again make moves aimed at thawing chilly ties. Abe should strive to deepen dialogue with China and make efforts to forge strong personal ties with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Japan should pay serious attention to Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou’s call for talks among China, Taiwan and Japan for joint development of the seas around the Senkaku Islands and for shelving the sovereignty issue.

The long and the short of the ‘stop short’ method Today’s topic is the stop short. It probably has a very technical name among the assured-clear-distance-impaired, but this is how it is known to me. The stop short is a time-honored maneuver by folks in cars who think their puny little arms can overcome the universal forces of gravity and inertia. (Spoiler alert ... they can’t.) It is executed by thrusting a free arm across the adjoining seat whenever the brakes are applied suddenly and with great vigor. This usually occurs when the car must stop within a short distance to keep it from occupying the same space as the car in front of it. Occasionally, however, it happens when the driver is on a cell phone and hears a piece of news of epic proportions. People who use cell phones while driving are very emotional and often have outbursts of physical manifestations of those emotions. People who use cell phones while driving are also, um … what’s the phrase here? Oh yes … not very smart. Or safe. Or recommended. Or legal. (This last might not be true but it ought to be.)
Marla Boone Troy Daily News Columnist Stopping the car within a short distance causes whatever is in the car to lunge forward in an uncontrolled manner. The stop short is an attempt to keep items in the adjoining seat from becoming items on the floor. Almost always when I have a passenger in the front seat, that passenger is a 65-year-old man who is wearing a seat belt and a shoulder harness. This man is perfectly capable of bracing himself in the event of sharp braking action. His upper body strength is far far superior to mine. Yet, every time I hit the brakes I reach out to keep him from sliding forward. It drives him crazy. Steve has pointed out in various stages of exasperation that my arm would not stop him for very

long or for very far. It might, it just might if I were quick enough, stop a grocery bag containing no more than a small head of lettuce from being catapulted forward. But it does not have a prayer of stopping a one hundred ninety pound man from testing his personal restraint device. The most it would probably do is break my arm. People a lot smarter than I am have figured out that the force of inertia an object is subject to is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration. I am willing to take their word for it. To put it a little less scientifically, the immutable laws of physics are not going to be altered for someone’s arm. Knowing this, it still seems as though there is some innate connection between the right foot on the brake pedal and the right arm being flung over to the passenger seat. (Of course, the right foot is connected to the right arm via the right leg and the torso but I mean a shorter, automatic connection.) Just to make things more difficult to understand, my left arm seems to be connected to Steve’s
right foot. Every time he hits the brakes hard when driving, my left arm shoots out to keep him in his seat. Once again … seat belt, shoulder harness, one hundred ninety pounds, puny arm, and Newton’s laws of motion … none of this matters. It just happens. Part of an episode of the old series “Seinfeld” was devoted to the stop short. One of the odious Costanza family, the brassmouthed Estelle, accuses Kramer of making a pass at her by engaging in a stop short. This actually supports my theory that the stop short is an involuntary action because no one, not even the hapless Kramer, would stoop to making a pass at Estelle. Unfortunately, quoting Seinfeld is not a great way to make one’s case. Let’s just agree I’m trying to help out the other person in the front seat. Or the other person in the back seat. Think of it as being an adjunct to the car’s own safety features. Call me the human air bag. On second thought ...

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Take the time to educate your children about topics Dear Annie: I have an 11-yearold daughter, and I feel she may know more about the "birds and bees" than she should because of what she sees on TV and hears on the radio. It seems that every time I turn on the radio, we hear a song with the word "sex" in it multiple times. When we watch TV (even so-called family shows on family-oriented channels), we see people passionately kissing or using words like "penis" and "vagina." What do you think of sharing information about sex with preteens? — Mom Dear Mom: By the time a child is 11, she should know plenty about the birds and the bees, presumably because her parents have explained things to her. And she should also know the correct terms for parts of the anatomy, including the private parts. Parents often wait to discuss these things with their kids, not only because they are uncomfortable doing so, but also because they believe their children don't need this information until they are older and educating them will somehow encourage them to have sex. This is not true. It only means your child will get his or her sexual information from unreliable and misleading sources — friends, the Internet, songs on the radio and messages on TV. Teaching your child about sex, with your own moral values attached, will allow her to respond appropriately to situations when she encounters them — and she undoubtedly will. When she hears something objectionable on TV or the radio, use it as an opportunity to explain your feelings on the subject. And you always have the option of changing the channel, setting parental controls or turning it off. Dear Annie: In the three years that I've been with my boyfriend, I've become very close with his family. My boyfriend's brother, "Scott," has two children, ages 9 and 5. My concern is that they have no heat in their house. They say they periodically cannot afford the bill. Instead, they use space heaters in the bedrooms. I get that the economy is tough, and I'm not saying I've never turned off my heat, but I don't have young children. Their mother somehow manages to get her hair done at the salon every month, but the kids can't play in the family room because it's freezing. Is this considered neglect? I don't want to jump to conclusions. — Oregon Dear Oregon: You are kind to be concerned about these kids. Assuming those space heaters are working properly and there are no fire hazards, however, they do not seem to be in any danger of hypothermia. Are they dressed warmly? Can they bundle up in lots of blankets? Do they have other places to go that are heated — the grandparents' house, school, libraries, etc.? Your boyfriend also can inform his brother that Oregon, like other states, offers assistance with heating bills for low-income families. He can check online or call 2-1-1 for local resources. Dear Annie: I would like to assure "Too Clean" that she is not alone. My friends call me "Mrs. OCD," but my logic is that anyone can visit my house at any time, and I don't have to be concerned. It's always clean. And like "Too Clean," travel is stressful for me. I break out in hives anytime I have to go long distances, and I'm traumatized if I have to use the restroom away from home. I find it easier when I keep my mind and hands busy, so I take my laptop and play games, look at photos, read and do crosswords. With today's technology, it is easy to entertain my overactive brain. This is my own form of therapy. — Wyoming Dear Wyoming: Thanks for the great ideas. Annie's Snippet, credit Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.

HINTS FROM HELOISE
Sound Off: Non-alcoholic options needed at parties Dear Readers: Here is this week’s Sound Off, about party hosts offering only alcoholic beverages: “I would like to sound off about party hosts who do not provide non-alcoholic beverage options for their guests. There are many reasons why a person may not want to drink (e.g., choice, medication, pregnancy, driving). It would be wonderful to not be greeted with a “deer in the headlights” look when you ask if there’s anything besides beer or wine and then being handed a cup and shown to the tap-water faucet. — Thirsty in Omaha, Neb.” Your point is well-taken. A host also should have, at a minimum, some soft drinks (regular
Hints from Heloise Columnist and diet), tea, etc., to offer. — Heloise INJURED-HUSBAND HELP Dear Readers: A reader recently wrote about her husband, who had suffered a brain injury. She was having trouble keeping important papers and cleaning products someplace safe. Several of you shared your
suggestions: • Kathy in Southern California said: “She should install a lock on one of her cupboard doors and keep the key to herself. It’s inexpensive and easy to do.” • A reader in Nebraska said, “She could find a cheap, lockable dresser, desk or any piece of furniture large enough to store her items at a thrift store.” • Sherry from Alabama said: “Lots of people work out of their car. Get an inexpensive cooler and put it in the trunk of your car, and keep personal papers in that. For cleaning products, clean out containers, put them back in the cabinet and put the actual products out of sight. Tell him,
‘We’re out,’ and you’re going to get more the next time you go to the store.” Hope all this advice helps. — Heloise GRANNY BAG Dear Heloise: I made up a great bag that rescued me and my two grandchildren many times. I took a big cloth bag and put these in it: a roll of toilet paper, tissues, hand cleaner and a cloth towel, toilet-seat covers, small snacks, activity toys, extra underwear, swimsuits in summer, disposable cameras and sweaters in cool weather. I carried this bag, and no one was able to see what I had, but we were always glad I had it! — Jenny in Huntsville, Texas

TODAY IN HISTORY Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 21, 1793, during the French Revolution, King Louis XVI, condemned for treason, was executed on the guillotine. On this date: In 1861, Jefferson Davis of Mississippi and four other Southerners whose states had seceded from the Union resigned from the U.S. Senate. In 1908, New York City’s Board of Aldermen passed an ordinance prohibiting women from smoking in public (the measure was vetoed
two weeks later by Mayor George B. McClellan Jr.). In 1977, President Jimmy Carter pardoned almost all Vietnam War draft evaders. In 1982, convict-turned-author Jack Henry Abbott was found guilty in New York of first-degree manslaughter in the stabbing death of waiter Richard Adan in 1981. (Abbott was later sentenced to 15 years to life in prison; he committed suicide in 2002.) Five years ago: Democratic presidential rivals Hillary Rodham
Clinton and Barack Obama accused each other of repeatedly and deliberately distorting the truth for political gain in a highly personal debate in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Ann Wedgeworth is 79. World Golf Hall of Famer Jack Nicklaus is 73. Opera singer Placido Domingo is 72. Singer Richie Havens is 72. Singer Mac Davis is 71. Actress Jill Eikenberry is 66. Country musician Jim Ibbotson (The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) is 66. Singer-songwriter Billy Ocean is 63. U.S.
Flu season fuels debate over sick time laws NEW YORK (AP) — Sniffling, groggy and afraid she had caught the flu, Diana Zavala dragged herself in to work anyway for a day she felt she couldn’t afford to miss. A school speech therapist who works as an independent contractor, she doesn’t have paid sick days. So the mother of two reported to work and hoped for the best and was aching, shivering and coughing by the end of the day. She stayed home the next day, then loaded up on medicine and returned to work. “It’s a balancing act” between physical health and financial well-being, she said. An unusually early and vigorous flu season is drawing attention to a cause that has scored victories but also hit roadblocks in recent years: mandatory paid sick leave for a third of civilian workers more than 40 million people who don’t have it. Supporters and opponents are particularly watching New York City, where lawmakers are weighing a sick leave proposal amid a competitive mayoral race. Pointing to a flu outbreak that the governor has called a public health emergency, dozens of doctors, nurses, lawmakers and activists some in surgical masks rallied Friday on the City Hall steps to call for passage of the measure, which has awaited a City Council vote for nearly three years. Two likely mayoral contenders have also pressed the point. The flu spike is making people more aware of the argument for sick pay, said Ellen Bravo, executive director of Family Values at Work, which promotes paid sick time initiatives around the country. “There’s people
who say, ‘OK, I get it you don’t want your server coughing on your food,’” she said. Advocates have cast paid sick time as both a workforce issue akin to parental leave and “living wage” laws, and a public health priority. But to some business owners, paid sick leave is an impractical and unfair burden for small operations. Critics also say the timing is bad, given the choppy economy and the hardships inflicted by Superstorm Sandy. Michael Sinensky, an owner of seven bars and restaurants around the city, was against the sick time proposal before Sandy. And after the storm shut down four of his restaurants for days or weeks, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars that his insurers have yet to pay, “we’re in survival mode.” “We’re at the point, right now, where we cannot afford additional social initiatives,” said Sinensky, whose roughly 500 employees switch shifts if they can’t work, an arrangement that some restaurateurs say benefits workers because paid sick time wouldn’t include tips. Employees without sick days are more likely to go to work with a contagious illness, send an ill child to school or day care and use hospital emergency rooms for care, according to a 2010 survey by the University of Chicago’s National Opinion Research Center. A 2011 study in the American Journal of Public Health estimated that a lack of sick time helped spread 5 million cases of flu-like illness during the 2009 swine flu outbreak. To be sure, many employees entitled to sick time go to work ill any-
way, out of dedication or at least a desire to project it. But the work-throughit ethic is shifting somewhat amid growing awareness about spreading sickness. “Right now, where companies’ incentives lie is butting right up against this concern over people coming into the workplace, infecting others and bringing productivity of a whole company down,” said John A. Challenger, CEO of employer consulting firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Paid sick day requirements are often popular in polls, but only four places have them: San Francisco, Seattle, Washington, D.C., and the state of Connecticut. The specific provisions vary. Milwaukee voters approved a sick time requirement in 2008, but the state Legislature passed a law blocking it. Philadelphia’s mayor vetoed a sick leave measure in 2011; lawmakers have since instituted a sick time requirement for businesses with city contracts. Voters rejected a paid sick day measure in Denver in 2011. In New York, City Councilwoman Gale Brewer’s proposal would require up to five paid sick days a year at businesses with at least five employees. It wouldn’t include independent contractors, such as Zavala, who supports the idea nonetheless. The idea boasts such supporters as feminist Gloria Steinem and “Sex and the City” actress Cynthia Nixon, as well as a majority of City Council members and a coalition of unions, women’s groups and public health advocates. But it also faces influential opponents, including business groups, Mayor Michael Bloomberg and City Council Speaker
AP PHOTO
In this Friday photo, activists hold signs during a rally at New York’s City Hall to call for immediate action on paid sick days legislation in light of the continued spread of the flu. Christine Quinn, who has virtually complete control over what matters come to a vote. Quinn, who is expected to run for mayor, said she considers paid sick leave a worthy goal but doesn’t think it would be wise to implement it in a sluggish economy. Two of her likely opponents, Public Advocate Bill de Blasio and Comptroller John Liu, have reiterated calls for paid sick leave in light of the flu season. While the debate plays out, Emilio Palaguachi is recovering from the flu and looking for a job. The father of four was abruptly fired without explanation earlier this month from his job at a deli after taking a day off to go to a doctor, he said. His former employer couldn’t be reached by telephone. “I needed work,” Palaguachi said after Friday’s City Hall rally, but “I needed to see the doctor because I’m sick.”

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western Union branches are trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable.

Harbaugh brothers land in Super Bowl FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Joe Flacco outdueled Tom Brady, throwing three touchdown passes in the second half and leading the Baltimore Ravens to their first Super Bowl in 12 years with a 28-13 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday for the AFC championship. The win sets up the first Super Bowl coached by brothers, Baltimore’s John Harbaugh and San Francisco’s Jim. The 49ers
won the NFC title earlier Sunday 28-24 at Atlanta. The 49ers have been listed as 5-point favorites. Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis’ final season will conclude in two weeks in New Orleans; he was the MVP of the 2001 game, the Ravens’ only Super Bowl win.

Records fall at Classic Zelnick sets new mark in 200 IM Staff Reports With 3,200 swimmers divided amongst nine different sites all over Ohio, Troy coach Chris Morgan described the Southwest Classic as a “mini state meet.” And some Troy swimmers stacked up pretty well against the rest of the state. After starting the day at the Trotwood site, Michelle Zelnick and Joel Evans qualified for Sunday night’s finals at St. Xavier.

San Francisco 49ers’ Frank Gore (21) breaks away for a nine-yard touchdown run during the second half of the NFL football NFC Championship game against the Atlanta Falcons Sunday in Atlanta.
Zelnick took third in the 200 individual medley (2:07.76), breaking her sister Pam’s record (2:08.70), which was set in 2006. She also finished fifth in the 200 backstroke (2:06.07). “For Shelly to break a record of her sisters, she was of course elated,” Morgan said. “That was set in 2006, and it was a record that we thought would be tough to break. Pam was a great swimmer, so for Shelly to get this record, it’s fantastic.” Evans got 14th in the 100 breaststroke (1:03.30) Sunday night. In other big news, Tommy Jackson broke his own school record in the 200 fly in the morning, swimming it in a time of 2:17.75. His previous record was 2:28.40. The Trojans will swim at the Greater Western Ohio Conference meet Saturday at 2 p.m. in Trotwood.
49ers rally way to Super Bowl Trojans ■ Hockey
Atlanta loses big first-half lead, falls 28-24 ATLANTA (AP) — Make way Joe Montana and Steve Young. Colin Kaepernick is leading a brash new group of 49ers to the Super Bowl. Frank Gore scored a pair of second-half touchdowns and San Francisco, after falling behind 17-0 by the first play of the second quarter, pulled off a record rally for a 28-24 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC championship game Sunday. Kaepernick didn’t put up the same dazzling numbers he did in the divisional playoff against Green Bay. But he was solid enough to justify coach Jim Harbaugh’s decision to bench Alex Smith and go with the youngster. The 49ers’ defense did its part, shutting out
Atlanta in the second half and making a big stop with just over a minute to go. San Francisco (13-4-1) moves on to face either New England or Baltimore at New Orleans in two weeks and will try to join Pittsburgh as the only franchises with six Super Bowl titles. It could be a brother-vs.-brother matchup, too, since John Harbaugh coaches the Ravens. “This is what we play for. We play for this moment,” said 49ers tight end Vernon Davis, who hauled in a touchdown pass from Kaepernick. “We put in all the hard work and get the opportunity to play on the big stage.” Montana led the 49ers to four Super Bowl wins and Young took them to No. 5. It’s up
to Kaepernick to get No. 6 when the 49ers play in the NFL title game for the first time since 1995. This also was sweet redemption after a bitter loss at home in last year’s NFC title game, when a fumbled return set up the New York Giants’ winning field goal in overtime. “We’ve come full circle,” said Denise DeBartolo York, part of the family that has owned the 49ers since their championship days, “and the dynasty will prevail.” The second-year quarterback who runs like a track star guided San Francisco on a pair of second-half scoring drives that wiped out Atlanta’s 24-14 lead

No. 2 Hoosiers top NW
AFC Title
EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) — Cody Zeller could sense panic setting in. Then, just in time, Indiana regained its composure. Zeller scored 21 points and grabbed 13 rebounds, and the No. 2 Hoosiers beat Northwestern 67-59 on Sunday. Jordan Hulls added 15 points, Christian Watford scored 14 and the Hoosiers (16-2, 4-1 Big Ten) hung on after things got tense down the stretch. They led by as many as 17 in the first half and were up 31-17 at the break. But Northwestern (11-8, 2-4) responded with a 1-3-1 trap in the second half, leading to rushed shots by Indiana. The Wildcats pulled within five three times, but the Hoosiers hit seven of eight free throws in the final 57 seconds to prevail after seeing a six-game win streak end with a loss to Wisconsin last week. “They just kind of sped us up for a while,” Zeller said. “We were kind of panicked for a while. That’s what their defense kind of forces you to do. Once we started getting into the middle, getting to the baseline, then we started getting open shots.” Zeller, the Big Ten Preseason Player of the Year, hit nine of 10 free throws and dominated inside as Indiana pounded the Wildcats 36-24 on the glass. “It just seemed like he was everywhere,” Northwestern coach Bill Carmody said. “He gets to the line a lot and makes his foul shots.” Victor Oladipo scored seven points for Indiana, but hit a key 3-pointer late in the game after taking a blow to the right eye midway through the second half. That happened right before Northwestern’s Dave Sobolewski made a 3, and he had a patch on his right eye after the game. Oladipo said Sobolewski was “kind of doing a swim move” right before the shot

Oladipo said he would have the eye examined once the team returned home. Reggie Hearn scored 22 for Northwestern, which refused to go away quietly in this one after beating No. 23 Illinois on Thursday. No. 14 NC State 66, Clemson 62 RALEIGH, N.C. — Freshman T.J. Warren scored 21 points while Richard Howell scored the go-ahead basket with 1:56 left to help No. 14 North Carolina State hold off Clemson 66-62 on Sunday night. Howell finished with 11
points and 12 rebounds for the Wolfpack (15-3, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who never trailed yet still found itself in a tight game against a league opponent that wouldn’t go away. N.C. State scored the game’s first 10 points and led by nine early in the second half. Ultimately, the Wolfpack held on, with Howell’s threepoint play breaking a tie and Scott Wood’s 5-for-6 performance at the line in the final 28 seconds helping N.C. State keep its grip on the lead. Devin Booker scored a career-high 27 points for the Tigers (10-7, 2-3), though he didn’t score in the final 8 minutes or even get a shot in the final 6 minutes.
Rod Hall added a seasonhigh 16 points for Clemson, including the tying threepoint play with 3:37 left. The teams then traded baskets before Howell took a feed from Wood into the center of the paint while Milton Jennings jumped to block any shot from behind. Howell collected the ball and finished the layup despite the contact from Jennings, then made the ensuing free throw for the 60-57 lead. Clemson had a final chance to tie the game, but Hall slipped as he tried to catch an inbounds pass with 8.7 seconds left. The ball went to Lorenzo Brown, who hit a free throw with 5.5 seconds on the clock to make it a two-possession game.
■ CONTINUED FROM 13 outscored the Patriots 210 in the second half. Baltimore’s defense made Brady look ordinary and stymied the league’s top offense. Brady was 67-0 at home when leading at halftime. Flacco’s three touchdown passes came in just over 10 minutes in the second half. He connected with Bolden for two TDs in the first four minutes of the fourth quarter a 3-yarder and an 11yarder after hitting Pitta with a 5-yard strike with 6:14 left in the third. The Ravens (13-6) gained just 130 yards in the first half before Flacco guided them on scoring drives of 87 and 63 yards. New England (13-5) suffered three injuries in the first half. Cornerback Aqib Talib hurt his thigh and defensive tackle Kyle Love injured his knee. The return of both starters was questionable. Backup safety Patrick Chung was helped off the field after one play. The Patriots played without tight end Rob Gronkowski, who broke his left arm a week earlier in their 41-28 divisional win over the Houston Texans. Stephen Gostkowski had given the Patriots a 3-0 lead with a 31-yard field goal with 6:21 left in the first quarter. But the Ravens went ahead on Ray Rice’s 2yard touchdown run with
9:28 to go in the second. Wes Welker then scored with just over 4 minutes remaining in the half on a 1yard pass from Brady and the Patriots increased their lead on Gostkowski’s 25yard field goal on the final play before intermission. New England outgained Baltimore 214 yards to 130 in the half. Brady completed 14 of 24 passes for 139 yards, while Flacco went 6 for 12 for 81 yards. Neither team committed a turnover. The scoring pass to Bolden ended a drive on which Flacco completed five of six passes, the longest a 23-yarder to Torrey Smith. The touchdown by Pitta capped the Ravens’ best drive of the game, covering 87 yards in 10 plays. It started with a 15-yard defensive pass interference penalty. Then, Flacco completed six of his other nine passes on the series. Three of them went for first downs 22 yards to Pitta, 15 to Rice and 12 to Bolden that gave the Ravens a first-and-goal at the Patriots 10-yard line. Flacco then connected with Pitta for a 5-yard pass and finished the drive with another 5-yarder to Pitta, who easily beat single coverage by safety Steve Gregory. The Patriots began the scoring on Gostkowski’s kick, ending a 13-play, 67yard drive during which Brady completed five of seven passes for 55 yards.

Trojans ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Walters. Will Schober followed with two goals of his own, including one to open the third period, which jump-started the Trojan’ rally. Eli Walters goal, which was assisted by Mason Hagan and Jake Uhlenbrock, proved to be the game winner. Logan Tiderington added a goal with under a minute left for some insurance. Schober, Tiderington, Terrill and Brandon Beaty all added assists in the
win. Troy Moore had three goals to lead the Trojans past Toledo Springfield. Beaty, Terrill, Schober, Ian Ward, Tyler Hess, Doug Eardly and Alex Smith all scored goals, while Eli Walters added three assists. In the two victories on Sunday, Troy outshot opponents 61-20. Troy (15-13) resumes play Friday against Upper Arlington at Columbus Ice House. The game starts at 7 p.m.

NFC Title
Donaldson wins Abu Dhabi
■ CONTINUED FROM 13 at the break. Gore scored on a 5-yard run early in the third quarter, then sprinted in from 9 yards out for the winning score with 8:23 remaining after each team made crucial mistakes to ruin potential scoring drives. On both of Gore’s TDs, the Falcons had to worry about Kaepernick running it himself out of the spread option, and they barely even touched the running back on either play. His backup, LaMichael James, also ran for a TD in similar fashion. “I’m just enjoying this,” Kaepernick said. “I mean, I couldn’t ask to be anywhere else.” He didn’t mind letting others handle the running game. “I kind of figured that coming in and they showed that on film, so I assumed Frank and LaMichael were going to have a big day,” Kaepernick said. “Frank ran hard today, and I can’t say enough about him.” The 49ers pulled off the biggest comeback victory in an NFC championship game, according to STATS. The previous NFC record was 13 points Atlanta’s victory over Minnesota in the 1999 title game, which sent the Falcons to what remains the only Super Bowl in franchise history. In the AFC, the record is 18 points, when Indianapolis rallied past New England in 2007. The top-seeded Falcons (14-4), in what appeared to be the final game for Hall of Famer-to-be Tony Gonzalez, tried to pull off another season-extending drive. But, unlike the week before against Seattle, they needed a touchdown this time. They came up 10 yards
short. On fourth down, Matt Ryan attempted a pass over the middle to Roddy White that would have been enough to keep the drive going. But linebacker NaVorro Bowman stuck a hand in to knock it away with 1:13 remaining. The 49ers ran off all but the final 6 seconds, not nearly enough time for Ryan to pull off his greatest comeback yet. With that, the celebration was on in the city by the bay, which is rapidly becoming the new Titletown USA. The 49ers will try to follow the lead of the baseball Giants, who won the World Series in October. The Falcons came up short of their second Super Bowl, leaving the 1995 Braves as the city’s only major sports champions. This one figures to hurt for a while. Kaepernick, who ran for 181 yards against the Packers to set an NFL playoff record for a quarterback, didn’t have much chance to use his legs against the Falcons. He broke off a 23yard gain, but was thrown for a 2-yard loss the only other time he carried the ball. But Kaepernick showed he’s more than a runner, shredding the Falcons for 233 yards passing on a 16of-21 day. His favorite receiver was Davis, who hauled in five passes for 106 yards, including a 4yard touchdown. Gore carried 21 times for 90 yards, while James added 34 yards on five carries. Ryan finished 30 of 42 for 396 yards, by far the best performance of his playoff career. But his postseason record dropped to 1-
4, done in by two big miscues an interception and a fumble in the second half. Julio Jones was Ryan’s favorite receiver most of the day, finishing with 11 catches for 182 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He hauled in a 46-yarder less than 4 minutes into the game, then made a dazzling grab in the left corner of the end zone for a 20-yard score. He got his left foot down, then planted his right foot about an inch inside the line while cornerback Tarell Brown was all over him. Ryan threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Gonzalez with 25 seconds remaining in the first half after the 49ers had cut the deficit to 17-14. It seemed the home team had reclaimed the momentum heading to the locker room, but, amazingly, that would be its final score of the day. The 49ers quickly seized control on the opening possession of the second half, driving 82 yards in just seven plays for Gore’s first TD. After a nearly perfect first half, in which Ryan was 18 of 24 for 271 yards and those three TDs, the quarterback known as Matty Ice made a couple of crucial blunders. First, he tossed a pass that was picked off by Chris Culliver, halting a drive in 49ers territory. Ryan ripped off his chinstrap in disgust. Then, with the Falcons in scoring range for at least a field goal, Ryan failed to grab a shotgun snap, appearing to take his eyes off the ball before he caught it. The ball squirted away and Aldon Smith recovered for the 49ers at their own 37. “Against a good team, you can’t have those kind of mistakes,” Ryan said.
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Jamie Donaldson won the Abu Dhabi Championship by one shot Sunday, with Justin Rose narrowly missing a birdie putt on the 18th that would have forced a playoff. Rose’s 8-foot putt rimmed out of the hole, giving the Welshman his second European Tour victory. He shot a 68 to finish at 14-under 274. Rose (71) threw his club up in the air in frustration while Donaldson flashed a relieved smile. Rose tied for second with Thorbjorn Olesen (69) of Denmark, who also failed to force a playoff on the 18th when his 15-foot birdie putt rolled past the hole. Olesen, playing with Rose, had putted first. “It was a tough field, brutal golf course,” said Donaldson, whose win will move him in into the world’s top 30. It was fifth-ranked Rose’s tournament to lose. The Englishman had a two-shot lead over Donaldson and Olesen and led all week, hitting greens and making timely putts. But he was shaky from the start Sunday, scrambling early to save pars and then hitting errant drives on Nos. 5, 11 and 16 that led to bogeys, while finding it difficult to read the greens. “It was definitely hard work today,” Rose said. “You want to close out with a chance to win when you have it and didn’t do that today. But I didn’t do a lot wrong, either.” The 47th-ranked Donaldson won his first tournament last year in his 266th European Tour event. After Rose hit a drive into the trees for a bogey

But the Welshman didn’t make it easy for himself. He missed a long birdie putt on the final hole and then a 5-foot putt for par. He settled for a bogey and figured there would be a playoff. “It was annoying to finish like that,” Donaldson said. “But you need a little luck sometimes in golf to win.” • Humana Challenge LA QUINTA, Calif. — Brian Gay won the Humana Challenge on Sunday for his fourth PGA Tour title, beating Charles Howell III with a 5 1/2-foot birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff. Gay closed with a 9under 63 on PGA West’s
Arnold Palmer Private Course to match Howell and Swedish rookie David Lingmerth at 25-under 263. Howell shot a 64, and Lingmerth had a 62. Scott Stallings, five strokes ahead entering the round, bogeyed the final hole for a 70 to miss the playoff by a stroke. Gay and Howell opened the playoff with birdies on the par-5 18th, and Lingmerth dropped out with a bogey after hitting his approach into the leftside water. Gay won on the par-4 10th, hitting a perfect drive and putting his 145-yard second shot in good position below the hole. Howell drove into the right rough, hit his second into the back bunker, blasted out to 15 feet and two-putted for bogey.

Te’o to be interviewed by Katie Couric SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o will be interviewed by Katie Couric, the first on-camera interview given by the AllAmerican since news broke about the dead girlfriend hoax. Te’o and his parents will appear on Couric’s syndicated daytime talk show Thursday. ABC News announced the interview Sunday, but gave no details as to when it will take place and where. Te’o gave an off-camera interview with ESPN on Friday night. He insists he was the victim of the hoax, not a participant. The Heisman Trophy runner-up said he had an online romance with a woman he never met and in September was informed that the woman died from leukemia.
Te’o told ESPN that the person suspected of being the mastermind of the hoax has contacted him and apologized. Couric, now a special correspondent for ABC News, formerly worked as the anchor for the CBS Evening News and was a co-host of NBC’s Today Show. The strange tale of Te’o apparently being duped by an elaborate hoax, pulled off by a California man, has put the Heisman Trophy finalist in national headlines from the Wall Street Journal to TMZ. In the The man he said apologized to him for pulling the scam, 22-year-old Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, has not spoken publicly. He and his family have decline the AP’s numerous requests for interviews. Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick
said Te’o reached out to his coaches and university officials on Dec. 26, and the school commissioned an investigation that he said confirmed Te’o was not involved in the hoax. The school received the findings of the investigation on Jan. 4, three days before Notre Dame played Alabama in the BCS title game. A Notre Dame spokesman said some school administrators thought they should release what they knew about what the hoax as soon as they became aware of it, but the university ultimately decided to let Te’o and his family be first to go public with the story. Notre Dame spokesman Dennis Brown told the South Bend (Ind.) Tribune in a story published Sunday that university officials decided disclosing the information about the hoax
before the BCS championship in Miami would not be in the best interest of the teams or the individuals involved. The hoax about Te’os dead girlfriend became public Wednesday when it was reported by Deadspin.com. Swarbrick held a news conference later that day to discuss what Notre Dame knew, and gave full support to Te’o. Later, Swarbrick said the family had intended to speak publicly about the hoax Jan. 21. Brown said the university was “utterly stunned” when Te’o informed them about details of the hoax on Dec. 26 and had a “difficult time getting our arms around it.” Te’o met with Swarbrick for nearly two hours on Dec. 27 after returning to campus to give a full account of his relationship with the
online woman he knew as Lennay Kekua, and then again the next day, Brown said. How the university should proceed was the topic of discussions between top administrators for a week, Brown said. The university hired outside investigators on Dec. 29. The investigators were in touch the next day, telling the university they could find no evidence of a Lennay Kekua or any of the relatives she had told Te’o about in several “sophisticated databases” the firm used. Brown said the investigators concluded “the entire family was fictitious, because of their inability to find them, and that the investigation should turn to trying to identify the woman who had been talking to Manti.”
Investigators determined the address the woman had given Te’o was real, with a house there that belonged to members of a family named Tuiasosopo, including Ronaiah Tuiasosopo. Brown said the investigators hired by Notre Dame didn’t try to reach Tuiasosopo or his relatives. The university officials told the newspaper the investigators did not examine cellphone records, emails or other electronic communication to determine the length or extent of Te’o’s communication over the past few years with the person claiming to be Kekua, nor did the university ask Te’o to take a lie detector test. The school informed Teo’s parents, Brian and Ottilia, about the investigation results on Jan. 5.

Novak Djokovic, right, embraces Stanislas Wawrinka after winning their fourth round match at the Australian Open tennis championship Sunday night in Melbourne, Australia. “For sure, I think the best match I have ever played,” Wawrinka said. “I fought like a dog like always. At 4-4 in the final set, I thought I might have won the match, but he was just better.” Djokovic will next play No. 5 Tomas Berdych, who needed five match points in the tiebreaker before beating South Africa’s Kevin Anderson 6-3, 6-2, 7-6 (13). Fourth-seeded David Ferrer won 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 over No. 16 Kei Nishikori of Japan to set up a quarterfinal against fellow Spaniard Nicolas Almagro, who was leading 6-2, 5-1 when No. 8 Janko Tipsaveric retired from their fourth-round match. The Djokovic-Wawrinka match overshadowed Maria Sharapova’s accomplishment earlier in the day. Sharapova advanced to the quarterfinals with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Kirsten Flipkens in another impressive display last year’s French Open champion has
lost just five games through four rounds, breaking the Australian Open mark of eight held previously by eventual champions Steffi Graf and Monica Seles. “A couple that I’ve won, I felt like I was playing great from the beginning and I was able to carry that through the whole tournament,” said Sharapova, who won titles in 2004 at Wimbledon, 2006 at the U.S. Open and 2008 in Australia before completing her career Grand Slam with a victory at last year’s French Open. She can’t remember ever winning so few games through four rounds of a tournament, but realizes this means nothing if she doesn’t make it to the latter stages. “Well, I’m certainly happy to be playing this well but … it only gets tougher from here,” said Sharapova, who is playing her first tournament of 2013 after withdrawing from a warm-up event at
Brisbane because of an injured right collarbone. She next plays fellow Russian Ekaterina Makarova, who beat fifthseeded Angelique Kerber 75, 6-4. Sharapova defeated Makarova in the quarterfinals here last year on her way to the final, which she lost in straight sets to Victoria Azarenka. Li Na, who reached the final here in 2011 and won the French Open later that year, saved a set point in the tiebreaker before beating Julia Goerges 7-6 (6), 6-1. She’ll play No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska, who beat No. 13 Ana Ivanovic 6-2, 6-4 for her 13th consecutive win. Radwanska won the Auckland and Sydney titles before coming to Melbourne. Today, Roger Federer plays Milos Raonic, and U.S. Open champion Andy Murray faces Gilles Simon. Azarenka, Serena Williams and fellow American Sloane Stephens also have their fourth-round matches.

M E L B O U R N E , Australia (AP) — The opponent was different, the match three rounds earlier. Still, the result gave Novak Djokovic a familiar feeling, and another chance to rip off his shirt in celebration. Djokovic needed just over 5 hours to beat Stanislas Wawrinka 1-6, 75, 6-4, 6-7 (5), 12-10 in a fourth-round match Sunday night at the Australian Open, on the same court where he needed 5:53 to beat Rafael Nadal in last year’s final. “I just had flashback of 2012,” Djokovic said. “It was maybe 45 minutes less this match than the one 12 months ago, but still it was still as exciting. I tried to enjoy the moment and couldn’t ask for more. What a match point … unbelievable.” He wasn’t exaggerating about the match point. On his third attempt to end it, his backhand cross-court shot zipped past the valiant Wawrinka, who, Djokovic conceded, had outplayed him for most of the night. “He came up with great tactics today,” Djokovic said. “He didn’t give me a lot of the same rhythm that I could get into the match. He was the one being in charge. I was passive. “ The win was Djokovic’s 18th in a row at Melbourne Park after winning the last two Australian titles and advanced the Serbian star to the quarterfinals of his 15th consecutive major tournament. Wawrinka, who had been receiving treatment to his upper leg muscles from late in the fourth set, said he would take more positives than negatives out of the match. He led 5-2 in the second set after outplaying Djokovic in the first.

Djokovic outlasts Wawrinka in five-hour match
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Stan the Man was the dominant topic at the St. Louis Cardinals’ annual fan festival. Outside Busch Stadium, it was totally about paying tribute, too. All day Sunday, fans ignored near-freezing temperatures and gathered around the larger of the two Musial statues at the ballpark, remembering the Hall of Famer and franchise icon who died Saturday at 92. Team flags were at half-staff. Among the tributes was a statement from President Barack Obama saying he was “saddened to learn of the passing of baseball legend Stan Musial.” Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon called Musial “a great American hero who with the utmost humility inspired us all to aim high and dream big. The world is emptier today without him, but far better to have known him.”
The team was awaiting word from Musial’s family on arrangements for a formal tribute. Weather could preclude a home-plate ceremony and casket viewing for fans such as was done when broadcaster Jack Buck died in 2002. “It’s the end of an incredible era,” team chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. said. “We’ve told them whatever they would like to do, we would certainly be there for them.Stan epitomized everything that’s great about Cardinal baseball in every way.” Despite the weather there was a game-day feel at the ballpark. Dozens at a time congregated around the statue, often blocking a lane of traffic to get the perfect photo. Many fans dropped off mementoes, including miniature bats, balls inscribed with messages, hats, flowers and flags at the base. A tear rolling down one
eye, 65-year-old Gene Sandrowski of St. Louis remembered attending a 1954 doubleheader when Musial hit five homers against the New York Giants at Sportsman’s Park. “I snuck in and worked my way down,” said Sandrowski, who wore a Cardinals jacket and hat, as did many others. “What a game, what a player. He was a very generous man, too.” The most expensive item in the team store came off the shelf. Richard Dunseth of Jacksonville, Ill., deemed the $900 price tag for an autographed Stan Musial jersey a bargain. For $169, you could purchase an autographed ball in a cube. Inside the fan fest, those who knew Stan the Man best validated the outpouring of emotion. Longtime former manager Tony La Russa ranks Musial in the upper echelon
of players along with Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams. Off the field, La Russa has an even greater appreciation. La Russa, who collected celebrity pals during his 16year stint as manager, recalled author John Grisham and his father being touched by the chance to meet Musial a few years ago. “They’re sitting in my office and here comes Stan,” La Russa said. “Grisham told me later on, as they left the ballpark his dad said ‘My life is complete. I just met Stan Musial.’” Musial had been in poor health for several years. “Anybody who knows him knows the quality of life was not good,” La Russa said. “I remember it was like with Jack (Buck), you got so selfish. You knew he was suffering but you definitely didn’t want to lose him.”
