Karzai says U.S., Taliban are colluding Alleges two sides working in concert to convince Afghans violence will worsen KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Sunday accused the Taliban and the U.S. of working in concert to convince Afghans that violence will worsen if most foreign troops leave an allegation the top American commander in Afghanistan rejected as “categorically false.”

Karzai said two suicide bombings that killed 19 people on Saturday one outside the Afghan Defense Ministry and the other near a police checkpoint in eastern Khost province show the insurgent group is conducting attacks to demonstrate that international forces will still be needed to keep the peace after

their current combat mission ends in 2014.

“The explosions in Kabul and Khost yesterday showed that they are at the service of America and at the service of this phrase: 2014. They are trying to frighten us into thinking that if the foreigners are not in Afghanistan, we would be facing

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Cardinals took a break from maneuvering ahead of this week’s papal conclave to fan out across Rome and celebrate Sunday Mass at local parishes.

The worship services provided a chance to see the cardinals up close and hear them preach two days before they enter the conclave. Roman Catholics and others packed the churches, holding up cell phones to take photos and video.

The cardinals said Mass in their titular churches, the parishes that according to church tradition are assigned to them as clergy of Rome, creating a symbolic bond with the pope.

The conclave, with 115 cardinal-electors, is scheduled to start Tuesday.

The cardinals have been holding meetings and informal gatherings ahead of electing a successor to Benedict XVI. Several church leaders acknowledged the historic moment at Mass.

“This Sunday is also special because today we prepare for the conclave,” said Boston Cardinal Sean O’Malley, in his sermon at Holy Mary of Victory church. “Let us pray that the Holy Spirit illumines the church to choose a new pope who will confirm us in our faith and make more visible the love of the good shepherd.”

The parish priest who introduced the cardinal was more direct, describing O’Malley as “humble, but decisive,” and saying he hoped his next visit to the church would be as pontiff.

The leading Italian newspaper, Corriere della Sera, has cited the Boston archbishop as a favorite, despite past resistance to the idea of a superpower pope.

Cardinal Angelo Scola of Milan, considered a top papal contender, distributed communion at Church of the Twelve Holy Apostles, and spoke on the mission of the church.

“It is to announce over and over again, even to the modern man who is so sophisticated but sometimes lost in the new millennium, to announce always and repeatedly that the Lord’s mercy is a source of hope even in these difficult times,” he said. Scola waved to wellwishers as he was driven away from the church.

Job gains cut unemployment to 7.7 percent, a 4-year low WASHINGTON (AP) — The American job market isn’t just growing. It’s accelerating.

Employers added 236,000 jobs in February and drove down the unemployment rate to 7.7 percent, its lowest level in more than four years. The gains signal that companies are confident enough in the economy to intensify hiring even in the face of tax increases and government spending cuts.

Last month capped a fourthmonth hiring spree in which employers have added an average of more than 200,000 jobs a month. The hiring has been fueled by steady improvement in housing, auto sales, manufacturing and corporate profits, along with record-low borrowing rates.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea and the United States began annual military drills early today despite North Korean threats to respond by voiding the armistice that ended the Korean War and launching a nuclear attack on the U.S. After the start of the drills, South Korean officials said their northern counterparts didn’t answer two calls on a hotline between the sides, apparently following through on an earlier vow to cut the communication channel because of the drills.

Pyongyang has launched a bombastfilled propaganda campaign against the drills, which involve 10,000 South Korean and about 3,000 American troops, and last week’s U.N. vote to impose new sanctions over the North’s Feb. 12 nuclear test. Analysts believe that much of that campaign is meant to shore up loyalty among citizens and the military for North Korea’s young leader, Kim Jong Un. Pyongyang isn’t believed to be able to build a warhead small enough to mount on a long-range missile, and the North’s military has repeatedly vowed in the past to scrap the 1953 armistice. North Korea wants a formal peace treaty, security guarantees and other concessions, as well as the removal of 28,500 U.S. troops stationed in South Korea.

Still, South Korean and U.S. officials have been closely monitoring Pyongyang’s actions and parsing the torrent of recent rhetoric from the North, which has been more warlike than usual.

North Korea regularly claims South Korea-U.S. drills are a preparation for invasion, but Pyongyang has signaled more worry about the drills that began today. The drills follow U.N. sanctions that the North says are the result of U.S. hostility aimed at toppling its political system.

North Korea has also warned South Korea of a nuclear war on the divided peninsula and said it was cancelling nonaggression pacts.

Under newly inaugurated President Park Geun-hye, South Korea’s Defense Ministry, which often brushes off North Korean threats, has looked to send a message of strength in response to the latest threats.

The ministry warned Friday that the North’s government would “evaporate

Cardinal Peter Erdo, the archbishop of EsztergomBudapest, said Mass at Basilica of Santa Balbina on the Aventine hill, where the first known Hungarian cardinal, Istvan Vancsa, was buried in the 13th century. Erdo, a canon lawyer and theologian, is considered a possible compromise candidate. He would be the second pontiff to come from eastern Europe, following Pope John Paul II. “Let us all pray for the Conclave that will gather the day after tomorrow,” Erdo said. “Let’s call the AP Holy Spirit to descend upon Cardinal Marc Ouellet celebrates Mass at the Santa Maria in Transpontina church in Rome, Sunday. the Holy Church.”

from the face of the Earth” if it ever used a nuclear weapon. The White House also said the U.S. is fully capable of defending itself against a North Korean ballistic attack.

North Korea has said the U.S. mainland is within the range of its long-range missiles, and an army general told a Pyongyang rally last week that the military is ready to fire a long-range nuclear-armed missile to turn Washington into a “sea of fire.”

While outside scientists are still trying to determine specifics, the North’s rocket test in December and third atomic bomb test last month may have pushed the country a step closer to acquiring the ability to hit the U.S. with weapons of mass destruction. Analysts, however, say Pyongyang is still years away from acquiring the smaller, lighter nuclear warheads needed for a credible nuclear missile program.

But there are still worries about a smaller conflict. North Korea has a variety of missiles and other weapons capable of striking South Korea. In 2010, North Korea shelled a South Korean island and allegedly torpedoed a South Korean warship, killing a total of 50 South Koreans.

Both incidents occurred near the disputed western sea boundary, a recurring flashpoint between the Koreas that has seen three other bloody naval skirmishes since 1999.

Kim Jong Un visited two islands just north of the sea boundary last week and ordered troops there to open fire immediately if a single enemy shell is fired on North Korean waters. Kim was also quoted as saying his military is fully ready to fight an “all-out war” and that he will order a “just, great advance for national unification” if the enemy makes even a slight provocation, according to the North’s official Korean Central News Agency.

Despite the threats, South Korea and the U.S. began the 11-day war games as scheduled today.

The allies have repeatedly said the drills and other joint exercises are defensive in nature and they have no intention of attacking the North.

A U.S. military statement said the exercise is not related to current events on the Korean Peninsula.

The drills are part of larger war games that began March 1 and are set to go on for two months.

U.S. troops in South Korea are meant to prevent North Korean aggression, U.S. and South Korean officials say, and are a legacy of the Korean War, which ended with the peace treaty that leaves the Korean Peninsula still technically in a state of war.

At Church of St. Andrew at the Quirinal, a crowd greeted Brazilian Cardinal Odilo Pedro Scherer, considered Brazil’s best hope of filling the papacy. Scherer, who lived in Rome as a young priest, shook hands and hugged the faithful before celebrating Mass. He asked for prayers for the church, calling this period “certainly a difficult time, but also a joyful one and full of hope.”

At the relatively young age of 63, Scherer embraces new approaches for reaching nonbelievers, while upholding Catholic orthodoxy, including rejecting same-sex marriage. Scherer joined Twitter in 2011 and in his second tweet said: “If

Karzai • CONTINUED FROM 1 such views to him, but said it was understandable that tensions would arise as the coalition balances the need to complete its mission and the Afghans’ move to exercise more sovereignty.

“We have fought too hard over the past 12 years, we have shed too much blood over the last 12 years, to ever think that violence or instability would be to our advantage,” Dunford said.

The Karzai government’s latest comments and actions come during U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s first visit to Afghanistan since becoming the Pentagon chief, a trip made in part to meet with Karzai. Hours after Karzai’s speech, their joint news conference was canceled by officials citing security concerns, though officials said the two men still planned to meet privately.

The two men had plenty of contentious issues to discuss. The Afghan and U.S. government are negotiating a security pact for the long-term presence of American forces in Afghanistan the difficulty illustrated when a deal to transfer a U.S. prison outside of Kabul to Afghan authority on Saturday fell through at the last moment.

U.S. and Afghan officials are also at odds over a Karzai demand that U.S. special operations forces withdraw from a province neighboring Kabul by Monday over allegations they participated in torture and extrajudicial killing charges U.S. officials deny.

As the deadline approached, Dunford told reporters he spoke to Karzai about the issue on Saturday and told him the U.S. is working on a plan to hand over security in the Wardak region to Afghan forces. He would not directly say whether the commandos will stay in Wardak when the deadline to leave comes on Monday.

Karzai raised another difficult issue when he denounced the alleged seizure of a university student Saturday by Afghan forces his aide said were working for the CIA. It was unclear why the student was detained.

Presidential spokesman Aimal Faizi said in an interview with The Associated Press that the CIA freed the student after Karzai’s staff intervened, but that Karzai wants the alleged Afghan raiders

arrested. The president issued a decree on Sunday banning all international forces and the Afghans working with them from entering universities and schools without Afghan government permission.

The CIA declined to comment.

NATO spokesman Lt. Col. Les Carroll said that no NATO forces “harassed a university student” as described by the President’s office.

In the incident at the Kandahar university Saturday, presidential spokesman Faizi said the raiders fired shots as they grabbed student Abdul Qayoum, and blindfolded him before taking him for interrogation at a CIA post that Taliban leader Mullah Omar once used as a home.

The CIA has trained an Afghan counterterrorist force several thousand strong, known as the Counterterrorism Pursuit Team, which works mostly in insurgent strongholds in southern and eastern Afghanistan. U.S. officials say they work in concert with the Afghan intelligence service, but Karzai frequently complains he lacks oversight over their operations.

Karzai said in his speech that any foreign powers that want to keep troops in Afghanistan need to do so under conditions set forward by Afghanistan.

“We will tell them where we need them, and under which conditions.

They must respect our laws. They must respect the national sovereignty of our country and must respect all our customs,” Karzai said.

Karzai offered no proof of coordination, but said the Taliban and the United States were in “daily negotiations” in various foreign countries and noted that the United States has said that it no longer considers the insurgent group its enemy. The U.S. continues to fight against the Taliban and other militant groups, but has expressed its backing for formal peace talks with the Taliban to find a political resolution to the war.

Karzai said he did not believe the Taliban’s claim that they launched Saturday’s attacks to show they are still a potent force fighting the United States.

“Yesterday’s explosions, which the Taliban claimed, show that in reality they are saying they want the presence of foreigners in Afghanistan,” Karzai said.

Word of the Week minute — the 60th part of an hour; 60 seconds

Newspaper Knowledge Write an editorial stating why you believe the United States should or should not change to the metric system.

Did You Know?

The official spelling is Daylight “Saving” Time, not Daylight “SavingS” Time.

Saving is used here as a verbal adjective (a participle). It modifies time and tells us more about its nature; namely, that it is characterized by the activity of saving daylight. It is a saving daylight kind of time. Because of this, it would be more accurate to refer to DST as daylight-saving time. Similar examples would be a mind-expanding book or a man-eating tiger.

Saving is used in the same way as saving a ball game, rather than as a savings account.

Nevertheless, many people feel the word savings (with an 's') flows more mellifluously off the tongue. Daylight Saving Time also is in common usage, and can be found in dictionaries.

Adding to the confusion is that the phrase Daylight Saving Time is inaccurate, since no daylight is actually saved.

Daylight Shifting Time would be better, and Daylight Time Shifting more accurate, but neither is politically desirable.

NIE Coordinator: Dana Wolfe / Graphic Designer: Scarlett E. Smith

What Is Daylight Saving Time?

People in some parts of the world gain an extra hour in winters and are able to sleep and snore that much longer thanks to a suggestion by Benjamin Franklin about Daylight Saving Time. But when the suggestion was first made, it raised such a furor not only from those kept awake by the extra snoring, but also from others and they wasted a lot of time fighting over this extra hour.

Actually the confusion began when the postal service and the railways began to connect far-flung cities. These towns followed their town clock by measuring the position of the sun. Therefore, every city was on a slightly different time.

In 1784, Benjamin Franklin, who was U.S. ambassador to France then, suggested the Daylight Saving Time concept but he was ignored. However, the railways decided to standardise time and Britain was the first to adapt a single consistent time across the country. But, this did nothing to ease international travel.

In 1884, a Canadian railway engineer Sir Sanford Fleming suggested that the entire world be divided into time zones that would be calculated from a prime meridian. This would help calculate various time zones relative to that one.

In October 1884, the International Meridian Conference met in Washington, D.C. and chose Greenwich, a village just outside London in England as the prime meridian. Though this Greenwich Meridian Time (GMT) was approved and adopted by the world, the various time zones across the world caused longer daylight hours in summer and shorter daylight hours in winter in certain countries.

So in 1907, a Londoner called William Willett tried to revive the subject of Daylight Saving Time. Unfortunately, he got laughed at. It was the practical Germans who realized that such a scheme helped reduce energy costs in lighting and electricity and immediately implemented it.

But why would you want to save daylight time at all? Adopting the Daylight Saving Time (DST) scheme saves ener-

gy. Energy used and the demand for electricity for lighting our homes is directly connected to when we go to bed and when we get up.

Studies show that sunrise in the summer is very early and most people wake up after the sun rises. Because the sun is up, we don't need to turn on lights in our homes. Thus, we actually use less energy in the morning. The opposite works in winter.

With DST, the “spring forward and fall (autumn) backward” system comes into play. In summer, the clock is extended by an hour and the sun therefore “sets” one hour later. This means that less electricity would be used for lighting and appliances later in the day. In autumn and winters, the clock is set an hour backward as more light is needed in the morning.

However, there was opposition as people did not like the idea of getting up an hour early or going to bed an hour later, just to keep up with the Joneses in some far off village in Greenwich.

Others complained of the inconvenience of changing all the clocks, and adjusting to a new sleeping schedule. For most people, this is a mere nuisance, but for some people with sleep disorders this transition is very difficult.

But in 1916, a year after Willett died, Britain and USA adapted DST. Other countries followed suit. The motivation was to conserve coal during World War I.

Clocks were put one hour ahead of GMT during the summer months. But in 1918, the law was repealed in the United States.

Two decades later during World War II, DST was re-introduced to help the war effort and clocks were put two hours ahead of GMT during summer! This became known as Double Summer Time.

From 1945 to 1962, DST became quite inconsistent with a hodgepodge of time observances and no agreement when to change clocks. Countries were free to observe or not observe DST. This caused confusion no end – especially for the broadcasting industry, for the postal service, railways and airlines.

In 1966, the United States Congress introduced the Uniform Time Act to regulate DST across the country. Today, approximately 70 countries utilize DST. While Europe has been taking advantage of the time change for decades, in 1996 the European Union (or EU) standardized a EU-wide “summertime period.” The EU is the union of all European countries into one economic entity, though they differ politically.

However, some countries like those in the equatorial and tropical regions do not observer DST as daylight hours are similar through the year and there is no advantage in moving clocks backward and forward.

Oil Conservation Following the 1973 oil embargo, the U.S. Congress extended Daylight Saving Time to eight months, rather than the normal six months. During that time, the U.S. Department of Transportation found that observing Daylight Saving Time in March and April saved the equivalent in energy of 10,000 barrels of oil each day – a total of 600,000 barrels in each of those two years.

Likewise, in 1986, Daylight Saving Time moved from the last Sunday in April to the first Sunday in April. No change was made to the ending date of the last Sunday in October.

Adding the entire month of April to Daylight Saving Time is estimated to save the U.S. about 300,000 barrels of oil each year.

Beginning in 2007, Daylight Saving Time commenced on the second Sunday in March and ended on the first Sunday in November, thereby saving even more oil.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Jerusalem Post on Palestinian unrest: The unfortunate death of Arafat Jaradat, a Palestinian arrested recently for throwing rocks at Israeli cars, has triggered violence in flashpoints around the West Bank.

An autopsy performed by the Health Ministry found that Jaradat died of heart failure and that signs of violence on his body, including broken ribs, were from resuscitation attempts.

But the Palestinian Authority, in an apparent attempt to escalate tensions, declared that Jaradat had been tortured to death at Megiddo Prison, where he was being held.

Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigade, a Fatah-linked terrorist group, vowed to avenge Jaradat’s death, which has become another source of rage for Palestinians already demonstrating in solidarity with four hunger-striking security prisoners and in particular against Israel’s decision to rearrest two terrorists who had been released in the October 2011 Gilad Schalit prisoner swap. Kadoura Fares, a former PA minister and the head of the Palestinian Prisoner’s Club, warned of a third intifada.

Park has taken the helm of her country at a sensitive time, as the region is still reeling from years of tensions. How she copes with the situation on the Korean Peninsula will not only test her own political wisdom but also have an impact on regional peace and stability.

It is good to see, therefore, that Park has kept her campaign promise and vowed to pursue trust-building with the DPRK. This show of consistency alone was necessary if Park is to usher in a new beginning for interactions between the two Koreas during her five-year presidential term.

True, Park also condemned Pyongyang’s nuclear program… But her promise to also build trust with Pyongyang step-by-step gives Seoul a lot of flexibility and raises hopes that when the knee-jerk responses toward Pyongyang’s nuclear test subside, Seoul will make moves to ease tensions with its neighbor in the north.

While it is unreasonable to expect an immediate reconciliation of the two Koreas, it is reasonable to gauge that Seoul’s new government could show a softer and less confrontational side to its neighbor.

As a close neighbor to the two Koreas, China is willing to do what it can to see the situation on the peninsula take a positive turn. It supports efforts that aim to build trust and de-escalate tensions in Northeast Asia.

In this regard, the country will continue to work with the ROK, as well as other parties concerned, to create conditions for resolving the peninsula’s nuclear issue through negotiations and dialogue.

I am an elderly widow who doesn’t get around nearly as well as I used to. Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts during the snowstorm.

DOONESBURY

Here is what has been eating at me lately I am at the point in my life where there is a lot more road in the rearview mirror than there’s likely to be looking out the front windshield.

This is cause for reflection on all sorts of matters including one I have taken for granted most of my life — food.

My general philosophy as I get older has been to eat as much food as possible with preservatives in it with the hope all those preservatives would make me last longer.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it), I have some friends who informed me that just because the food I eat is loaded with preservatives, none of that preservation necessarily is transferred to my body. Don’t you just hate it when your friends are right?

This group of friends is really into eating healthy food. I’ve always been a cheeseburger kind of guy with a steak thrown in when I can get it. But red meat?

Bad for you. Salt? Bad. Sugar? It makes you fat, which still might be better than those synthetic sugar replacements, which can

David Lindeman Troy Daily News Columnist do all sorts of odd things to you.

Genetically altered food and chickens and turkeys pumped up with all kinds of hormones and drugs? Bad, bad, bad.

Even cheese, pretty much my favorite food in the world, is bad.

Don’t even mention potato chips, Cheetos or Fritos.

It’s pretty clear you can make almost anything taste good if you put enough fat, sugar, butter and salt into it. The only problem is it can kill you (although there is something to be said for dying happy).

I’m not about to go vegan or anything — after all, if vegans had their way, they would condemn cows, pigs, chickens and various other animals to extinction. What are you going to do

— Martha Lewis Troy

with them, turn them out in the wild and let them fend for themselves? Adopt them as pets? We would go to zoos to see Guernseys, right there next to the elephants.

But I have to admit my friends probably are right about processed food. There are more fat people in this country than ever before. The costs of obesity on our health care system are enormous. It won’t be long until the government will be calling for cigarette-style warning labels on a lot of the food we eat: “Caution: This food can lead to heart disease, diabetes, hypertension and make you look really awful in tight-fitting clothes.”

New York City already is banning soft drinks and other sugarladen drinks larger than 16 ounces in restaurants (but you can still get beer and other alcoholic drinks by the bucket, so at least they still have their priorities straight).

Does anyone really believe that if we all ate more fruits and vegetables and less red meat and junk food our national health wouldn’t improve? Of course it would. We just all happen to be

addicted to convenience and high fat food. Give me a choice between a candy bar and a carrot and it’s no contest, unless you dip the carrot in chocolate.

So I’m going to do something about this! Well, maybe. I’m not going to stop eating cheese or meat just yet, or go on a diet heavy in kale, which my friends say tastes “OK.” Right. However, I expect sometime in the near future I will try quinoa for the first time. If you don’t know what quinoa is, don’t feel bad — I sure didn’t.

It’s some kind of South American plant that is supposed to be good for you. Apparently, the Incas were really big on it, which gives me reason to worry — we all know what happened to them.

Anyway, maybe I’ll like chenopods and couscous and whole grain rice. And if not?

Well, I have a fallback plan – I’ll just add a bunch of cheese, butter and salt to it. I’m sure I’ll be able to choke it all down then.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

If you can’t afford a new car, tell hubby the one he has is yours Dear Annie: My husband hoards cars and is too lazy to fix them. Now he is lying about money, saying, "Oh, this is set aside to fix the cars." But I know he is frittering it away and wasting his time. He always has excuses about why he can't fix the cars, but if that's the case, why hang on to them?

We have more than 10 cars on our lot, and only one is really drivable. Another is a collectible that he doesn't like to get dirty. The rest are wrecks. He acts as if the drivable vehicle belongs to him, but he bought it for me when I graduated college as a replacement for one that was stolen. He drives it every day, and I have to beg to use it. I have lost my mobility and independence, and he doesn't care.

I work full time and bring in a decent income. He is retired and watches videos and putters around on the computer. I am angry and tired of his lies. If he really wanted to fix the cars, he would. I am sick of all of the excuses and lies. Why doesn't he do something about these wrecks?

Some have been sitting there for 20 years. — Frustrated in Northern New York Dear Frustrated: Somewhere in the back of his head, your husband believes he will get around to fixing these cars. He is reluctant to part with them, because it means giving up that little fantasy. The wrecks may be annoying but are not critical to your marriage. Taking the only usable car, however, is a problem. Can you afford another car? If so, get one for yourself. If not, stop begging.

Tell your husband the car belongs to you and you intend to use it to get to work and run errands.

Maybe it will give him some incentive to deal with the wrecks.

Dear Annie: My husband and I love our youngest daughter and have always been proud of her accomplishments. However, now in her late 40s, she has become involved with a religious group that does not celebrate birthdays or holidays.

Over Christmas, I sent out some email greetings to my list of friends, and she was included. She called, outraged, and I was forced to admit that I do not believe as she does. Now, I don't hear from her anymore. What can I do? — Blue Christmas Dear Blue: Not much. Your daughter's lack of tolerance is not unusual for someone who has adopted new religious beliefs.

Please try to stay in touch.

Send her letters or emails letting her know you miss her and keeping her up to date on family news.

Do not mention her religion or yours or the argument you had.

We hope, over time, her stringent position will mellow a bit and she will contact you again.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Midwest Cook," who is appalled when other people's children say they "don't like" what she's serving. She says her own children will happily eat anything besides sauerkraut and Brussels sprouts.

It seems unfair to me to acknowledge her own children's food biases, but assume that any other child's preferences are a result of being pampered.

Manners, like saying "no, thank you," can be taught, but some people simply cannot eat the way others do.

If "Midwest Cook" will be regularly entertaining others' children, she might ask in advance whether they have things they can't (or won't) eat. This would save her guests, even the children, the awkwardness of offending the hosts by declining food. — No Fish, Please Dear No Fish: Unless there are serious allergies, it is unreasonable to expect hosts to cater to individual tastes. A good host will provide enough variety that no one goes hungry. A good guest will find something to nibble on without complaint.

SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Soundoff: Who really needs the spaces, anyway?

Dear Readers: Here is this week’s sound off, about handicapped parking spaces: “Thanks for providing us with the Sound Off columns. They’re great! “I am disabled with a hip/pelvis spinal injury and truly need handicapped parking spaces. “In the 12 years I’ve needed them, I have found that people are abusing these spaces in the most ingenious and selfish way: They park the car in those spaces, and leave the handicapped person in the car, while the able-bodied person trots into the store. “I cannot believe they feel justified in doing this, because they are taking those spaces from people

Hints from Heloise Columnist who need them. — A Reader, Torrington, Conn.�

Yours is a complaint that my readers have written about for a long time.

One thing to consider is that an “able-bodied� person may look healthy and just fine, but he or she could have a medical condition that warrants using a handicapped park-

ing space. You never know. There are many medical conditions where the person looks “normal.� — Heloise SHOWER SPRAY Dear Heloise: You had a recipe for a shower-door cleaner in one of your columns that I failed to cut out of our paper.

I think it had vinegar, water, alcohol and I don’t know if there was anything else. My shower doors have soap scum and hard water built up on them. Thank you. — Patty, via email.

Patty, I’m always happy to help!

Here is my easy recipe for a shower-door cleaner.

Mix 1/2 cup of vinegar (white or apple cider), 1 pint of rubbing

alcohol and 1 teaspoon of dishwashing liquid, and finish with enough water to make a gallon.

Put some into a clearly labeled spray bottle and use the rest for washing windows.

Vinegar is a multipurpose, cheap product that can be used for many chores. I have put all of my favorite vinegar hints into a pamphlet. To order, send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (66 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001.

Soak a stopped-up shower head in a small, plastic bag (if it can’t be removed) of full-strength vinegar overnight to remove hard-water buildup. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, March 12, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is an exciting day, because you’re full of anticipation about something — sure enough, there will be surprises!

(Does this mean a packed lunch and sensible shoes?)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You feel restless today Yes, you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop, and it’s invariably ugly and the wrong size.

(Sigh.) Enjoy schmoozing with others today.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A friend will surprise you today. Possibly, you will meet someone who is a real character or quite unusual. This person might even make you reconsider your future goals.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs are full of surprises today. Don’t try to anticipate them. Just brace yourself and be ready for something. (Don’t quit your day job.)

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Travel plans might be canceled; alternatively, a chance to travel somewhere might drop in your lap. Plans related to higher education, publishing and the media are just as unpredictable.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Unexpected gifts, goodies and favors from others might come your way today. Check your bank account to make sure you know what’s happening.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A friend or spouse will surprise you today by doing or saying something you least expect. Someone might want more space in the relationship or this person might just have shocking news.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Your routine will be interrupted at work today due to computer crashes, power outages, staff shortages or new staff and the introduction of new technology. Something will be different.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Romance is full of surprises today.

However, this is a very creative day (but with a strong likelihood of upsets in sports).

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Capricorn parents: Keep an eye on your children today, because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Stock the fridge, because unexpected company could drop by.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is an accident-prone day for your sign, so slow down and take it easy.

Pay attention to everything you say and do. Slowly, slowly.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Keep an eye on your money and possessions today because something unpredictable could occur. Guard your possessions against loss or theft.

YOU BORN TODAY You are a free spirit who values your independence.

You’re not afraid to blaze your own trail in life, because risk never holds you back. You’re courageous and prepared to struggle for what you want.

Although you appear down-to-earth, you’re a visionary. You know how to fully develop your talents. In the year ahead, an important choice will arise.

Choose wisely.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Monday, March 11, the 70th day of 2013. There are 295 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 11, 1888, the Blizzard of ‘88, also known as the “Great White Hurricane,” began inundating the northeastern United States, resulting in some 400 deaths.

On this date: • In 1861, the Constitution of the Confederate States of America was adopted by the Confederate Congress in Montgomery, Ala. • In 1862, during the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln removed Gen. George B. McClellan as general-

in-chief of the Union armies, leaving him in command of the Army of the Potomac, a post McClellan also ended up losing.

• In 1942, as Japanese forces continued to advance in the Pacific during World War II, Gen. Douglas MacArthur left the Philippines for Australia. (MacArthur, who subsequently vowed, “I shall return,” kept that promise more than 2 years later.)

• In 1977, more than 130 hostages held in Washington, D.C. by Hanafi Muslims were freed after ambassadors from three Islamic nations joined the negotiations.

• In 1993, Janet Reno was unani-

mously confirmed by the Senate to be attorney general.

• In 2011, a magnitude-9.0 earthquake and resulting tsunami struck Japan’s northeastern coast, killing nearly 20,000 people and severely damaging the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power station.

• Today’s Birthdays: Media mogul Rupert Murdoch is 82. ABC News correspondent Sam Donaldson is 79. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia is 77. Singer Bobby McFerrin is 63. Actor Terrence Howard is 44. Actor Johnny Knoxville is 42. Rock singermusicians Joel and Benji Madden (Good Charlotte) are 34.

Cause of off-color, fetid water eludes town PITTSBURGH (AP) — What causes clear, fresh country well water to turn orange or black, or smell so bad that it’s undrinkable?

Residents of a western Pennsylvania community have been trying for more than a year to get that question answered in their quest to get clean water back.

Some of them say the water was spoiled by drilling deep underground for natural gas. Others point to pollution from old coal mines.

They’ve also been told it could even be a baffling mix of natural and manmade reasons that change the water over time, like the leaves change on trees. But no one knows for sure, and they say the uncertainty is maddening.

In late 2011, the drinking water for about a dozen residents in the Woodlands, a rural community about 30 miles north of Pittsburgh, began to change. At first, the families blamed gas drilling, or fracking, being done 2000 feet away. But state tests showed the water wasn’t contaminated by drilling, and even more confusingly, many of their neighbors reported no problems.

Families with bad water then turned to federal officials. But last summer the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency quietly sent a letter to one resident, Janet McIntyre, saying the agency agreed with the state finding, since most of the chemicals found in the water could have occurred naturally.

McIntyre wasn’t satisfied, noting that the EPA “never set foot on my property to test the water themselves.”

The EPA didn’t respond to a request for comment on why the agency didn’t retest the water.

Still, the residents with water problems were hopeful that the Atlanta-based U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry was looking at the issue. But last month the agency said it “is not actively investigating complaints from this area.”

“I’m just very, very frus-

In this associated press file photo, a crew works on a gas drilling rig at a well site for shale based natural gas in Zelienople, Pa. trated,” McIntyre said.

So was John Stolz.

He’s the director of the Duquesne University Center for Environmental Research in Pittsburgh.

Stolz said state and federal agencies failed to do detailed reviews, so a Duquesne team has been monitoring water quality and surveying households in the Woodlands, in what is one of the most in-depth surveys of alleged impacts of gas drilling in the nation. With funding from two foundations, a team has regularly tested area water for more than a year.

“We’ll see black water, we’ll see orange water, there’s often times an odor,” Stolz said.

Postmaster, please send changes to: 224 S. Market St., Troy, OH 45373.

Overall, about 50 out of the 150 households in the community have complaints.

“There are certain areas that clearly don’t have any problems,” Stoltz said. And, he added, a well that has bad water one month may be clear the next, and a few homeowners even say that their well water improved after gas drilling began.

Even in areas with no nearby oil and gas drilling, the water quality in some aquifers changes naturally, groundwater experts say.

“It varies even within the same aquifer. It can vary from the top of the aquifer to the bottom, and from one side to the next,” said Mike Paque, executive director of the Oklahoma-based Ground

Water Protection Council.

The wells themselves may be causing the problem, too.

Stoltz said the depths vary from 90 feet to 900 feet deep, with an average of about 130 feet. Pennsylvania is one of the only states with no standards for rural water well construction, meaning multiple other factors could be contributing to the problems.

Others say the cause could be old coal mines or old oil and gas wells that date back to the 1800s.

Shafts from old mines lie under the region, said Butler County commissioner William L. McCarrier, who worked as a water well driller in the area during the 1970s. Those can fill with water, and that water then gets contaminated. He said pollution from old mines and wells was a common problem long before the recent gas drilling boom, which began about five years ago, adding that the situation is more complicated than many outsiders realize.

“It’s very unclear where the problem came from,” McCarrier said. He said he accepts the state finding that drilling didn’t cause the problem, but that authorities are still trying to find solution for the people who say their water is undrinkable.

That has put local officials in the middle of a fight.

The Woodlands is an unincorporated area that

was laid out with no rights of way for public water or sewer lines, and even the idea of extending a public water line to the area has created divisions. Some people who live within a quarter mile of McIntyre say they have no water problems whatsoever, and they don’t want to pay for improvements they don’t see a need for.

McIntyre said a water company is willing to bring a feed line to the edge of the community and put a pump house in. But the Woodlands residents would still need to form an association to manage and pay for water lines and hookups.

Residents met in January with lawyers to discuss filing lawsuits. But one expert said any claim would be complicated by the variations in water quality and the lack of a contamination finding from state or federal agencies.

cult case,” said Emily A. Collins, a professor and supervising attorney with the University of Pittsburgh Environmental Law Clinic.

Collins said that even if there is a lawsuit, plaintiffs might find it difficult to get their expert opinion into evidence, since the science isn’t clear.

The debate should be over anyway, say both state regulators and the drilling company Rex Energy, because multiple independent reviews found no contamination from drilling at all.

“In each case, the scientific analysis concluded that neither Rex Energy’s operations nor natural gas development impacted water quality,” said Rex spokesman Derek Smith, who noted that the company provided access to records, shared data, and gave “its complete cooperation and support” to the reviews. Rex is based in State College.

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.

If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office at (800)282-0515.

Tiger wins at Doral DORAL, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods is hitting his stride on a march to the Masters.

Woods had full control of his game Sunday and never let anyone get closer than three shots until he had locked up his 17th World Golf Championship title.

With a conservative bogey that didn’t matter on the final hole, he closed with a 1-under 71 to win the Cadillac Championship.

For the first time in five years, Woods has two wins before the Masters.

It was one year ago at Doral that Woods withdrew after 11 AP PHOTO holes in the final round because Tiger Woods hits from the third tee during the third round of the of tightness in his left Achilles Cadillac Championship golf tournament Sunday in Doral, Fla. tendon, creating uncertainty

about his health and whether he could ever get his game back.

False alarm.

Woods has won five times in the last year, the most of anyone in the world, and he can return to No. 1 with a win at Bay Hill in two weeks.

He won by two shots over Steve Stricker, who might want to claim a share of this trophy.

Stricker spent 45 minutes on the putting green with Woods on the eve of the tournament, helping him with his posture over putts. Woods made 27 birdies this week, one short of his personal best on the PGA Tour.

our hands. We did what we needed to do.”

Three weeks ago Sunday, the thought of Ohio State being in the middle of a title chase was almost inconceivable. The Buckeyes were routed 71-49 at Wisconsin, a loss that knocked them two games behind the Big Ten leaders with just five left.

More than that, it seemed like a psychological blow to a team that came home humiliated.

“As I told them, a lot of people had this team dead to rights a month ago,” coach Thad Matta said. “And they haven’t lost

PHOENIX (AP) — Adam Jones doubled in the tying and go-ahead runs in the eighth inning and Eric Hosmer hit a three-run double in the ninth as the United States beat Canada 9-4 on Sunday to advance to the second round of the World Baseball Classic.

The U.S. trailed 3-2 after seven innings before breaking loose. Team USA and Italy advanced in Group D while Canada and Mexico were eliminated.

Jones and Hosmer both had a rough week at the plate but came through with the United States on the brink of what would have been a humbling loss. Jones’ hit was his second in nine at-bats.

Hosmer was 3 for 13.

Second baseman Brandon Phillips contributed, too, making a diving stop to prevent Canada from tying it in the eighth.

Heath Bell pitched a scoreless seventh to get the victory for manager Joe Torre’s team.

Jimmy Henderson took the loss.

Canada’s Michael Saunders, of the Seattle Mariners, hit a two-run homer off starter Derek Holland and was chosen the Group D MVP, going 8 for 11 in the tournament.

The United States finished group play tied with Italy at 2-1 but gets the No. 1 seed because of its 6-2 win over Italy. The U.S. meets the loser of Sunday’s Dominican Republic-Puerto Rico game Tuesday in Miami.

David Wright, whose grand slam lifted the U.S. past Italy Saturday night, doubled and walked three times. Ben Zobrist had three hits, none of which left the infield.

Canada, coming off a 10-3 win over Mexico that featured a bruising ninth-inning brawl, finished 1-2. The Canadians have not made it out of the first round

Kenseth 25th career win at Las Vegas Matt Kenseth won on his 41st birthday for his new Joe Gibbs Racing team, barely holding off Kasey Kahne for his third victory at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday.

Kenseth earned his 25th career victory in just his third start in the JGR Toyota after leaving Roush Fenway Racing in the offseason. He took the lead away from Kahne out of a late restart and fended off Kahne’s Chevrolet over the final laps, adding another trophy to his Las Vegas victories in 2003 and 2004.

OSU handles Illinois Thomas leads the way in 68-55 win COLUMBUS (AP) — Having done all they could do by beating Illinois 68-55, the Ohio State Buckeyes feigned surprise that there were any other big games on the schedule Sunday.

Indiana at Michigan? A piece of the Big Ten title on the line for the Buckeyes?

“I think we’ve all got some schoolwork we have to go home and do,” point guard Aaron Craft cracked.

Evan Ravenel, the Buckeyes’ only senior, would have none of that.

“Speak for yourself,” he said with a grin.

The victory over the Illini put Ohio State (23-7, 13-5) in position to grab a share of the conference title if No. 7 Michigan could win at home against No. 2 Indiana later on Sunday.

Later, Craft finally conceded that he knew all about the conference standings and what was at stake.

“There’s no point worrying about something that we have no control over,” said Craft, who had 14 points and six assists and, as usual, created havoc on defense. “Obviously, we would love for (a Michigan win) to happen. But if it doesn’t, it’s out of

Indiana edges Michigan for Big Ten title ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Cody Zeller made a go-ahead layup with 13 seconds left and altered Trey Burke’s shot at the other end, lifting No. 2 Indiana to a 72-71 victory over No. 7 Michigan on Sunday that gave the Hoosiers their first outright Big Ten title in two decades.

The Hoosiers (26-5, 14-4) trailed by five points in the last minute but took advantage when the Wolverines (25-6, 12-6) were unable to seal it at the foul line.

Jordan Morgan had a fairly easy tip-in attempt of Burke’s miss that cut have won it for Michigan, but the ball rolled tantalizingly off the rim and Indiana’s Christian Watford grabbed the rebound with 4 seconds left.

A couple of Michigan’s rivals surely wish the Wolverines had won.

Ohio State, which beat Illinois on Sunday, needed an Indiana loss to earn a share of

the conference championship.

Michigan State was in the same position before hosting Northwestern later in the day.

Morgan made a tiebreaking putback with 1:35 left, teammate Tim Hardaway followed with a layup on the Wolverines’ next possession and Glen Robinson III made the first of two free throws with 52 seconds to go, giving the Wolverines a 71-66 lead.

After Zeller made a shot on

the ensuing possession, Hardaway missed the front end of a 1-and-1. Zeller then connected on two free throws and Burke couldn’t convert at the line, missing the front end of another haunting 1-and-1.

Zeller hit another big shot down low, the one that counted most in a game Indiana might have needed to earn a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. The

Instead, the Buckeyes hung a 67-58 upset on the Hoosiers.

Then on Sunday the Buckeyes took on an Illinois team that had manhandled them in early January, 7455.

“You look at what we had to do just in terms of this week, going to Bloomington and you ride the emotional high coming off (the win

there),” Matta said. “Then you’re playing (an Illinois) team that was at one point in the top 10 in the country.

From the standpoint of what these guys have been able to do, I couldn’t be prouder of them.”

So they left the arena in the odd position of having to root for archrival Michigan in order to get a share of the title. The Buckeyes were seeking at least a piece of their fourth straight Big Ten crown and sixth in eight years.

Deshaun Thomas, the Big Ten’s leading scorer at 19.8 points a game, scored 19 while possibly played his

final home game for Ohio State.

“We’ll think about that decision at the end of the (NCAA) tournament,” said Thomas, a junior. “Right now, there’s a lot more basketball left. I’m just going to enjoy my time and try to get to the Final Four. That’s all I’m worried about now.”

The Buckeyes are assured the No. 2 seed in next week’s Big Ten tournament in Chicago.

They beat the Illini (2111, 8-10) by overcoming a stalemate after the first 13 minutes, closing the half on a 12-2 run and then holding off any threats at the end.

“The end of the first half, they made a run on us and got a nice little lead going into halftime,” said Brandon Paul, who led the Illini with 21 points. “That definitely boosted their confidence.

Then we didn’t find ways to stop them down the stretch.”

Illinois pulled as close as 51-44 on consecutive 3pointers by Paul and Myke Henry.

But then Craft, who has broken out of a lethargic offensive season with several big scoring efforts, drove the lane and banked in a layup in traffic. After an Illini miss, Thomas fed

Ravenel for a three-point play.

Craft then rebounded at the other end and tossed in a 3 late in the shot clock and the lead was 15 with less than six minutes left.

“It looks like from watching film they’re playing the best that they’ve played,” said first-year Illinois coach John Groce, a longtime assistant to Matta at Ohio State and former Ohio University head coach.

“They’re getting contributions from a lot of guys.

They’re starting to connect a little bit and play together.”

The Buckeyes will play

Friday night in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament against the winner of seventh-seeded Purdue and 11th-seeded Nebraska. The Illini will play ninth-seeded Minnesota on Thursday.

The Ohio State winning streak provides some powerful momentum for the Big Ten tournament and beyond.

“I think it matters because you have the momentum,” Ravenel said of the five straight wins.

“You’ve got the taste of winning in your mouth and you want to keep it there. You just want to keep playing, and keep winning.”

Victorious in Vegas

Top 25

Matt Kenseth celebrates 41st birthday in Victory Lane LAS VEGAS (AP) — Matt Kenseth won on his 41st birthday for his new Joe Gibbs Racing team, barely holding off Kasey Kahne for his third victory at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday.

Kenseth earned his 25th career victory in just his third start in the JGR Toyota after leaving Roush Fenway Racing in the offseason. He took the lead away from Kahne out of a late restart and fended off Kahne’s Chevrolet over the final laps, adding another trophy to his Las Vegas victories in 2003 and 2004.

“I was real nervous all day,” Kenseth said. “(Kahne) had the best car.

I told (crew chief) Jason (Ratcliff) with about 12 to go that I was sorry we were going to lose. We were just too tight. … We didn’t have the fastest car there, but we had it where we needed it to be.”

Pole sitter Brad Keselowski finished third, with hometown driver Kyle Busch in fourth and Carl Edwards fifth.

Jimmie Johnson, the overall points leader, was sixth and Dale Earnhardt Jr. seventh.

Defending Vegas champion Tony Stewart finished 11th, while Denny Hamlin was 15th.

Kenseth is just the third NASCAR driver to win on his birthday, joining Cale Yarborough who did it twice and Busch. His win was the 50th for Toyota in Sprint Cup Series competition.

Kenseth has won at least one race in 11 of his 14 full seasons in the Sprint Cup series, but the first 13 were all in Fords with Roush Fenway, the team that gave him his break in NASCAR and fostered his development into a likely Hall of Famer.

Driver Matt Kenseth holds up the trophy as the celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race Sunday in Las Vegas. for a seat on Gibbs’ team was an open secret for much of last season, although the veteran star never really explained his move.

The 400-mile race was the first real test for NASCAR’s new Gen-6 car on the intermediate tracks they’re built to race.

Although Hamlin commanded the week’s headlines when his pessimism about the car drew a stiff $25,000 fine from NASCAR, most drivers were curious how the Gen6 would work in its ideal 1.5-mile environment.

Any drivers who still think it’s too tough to pass in the new car must not have been watching Busch, who made two lengthy charges up to early leads, doing it both before and after a pit-row speeding penalty dropped

him back to 18th.

Busch charged through the field with impressive ease and took the lead out of a restart with a daredevil move on the apron with 102 laps to go. He went three wide and got underneath Kahne while kicking up dust well below the white line.

Kahne set the qualifying speed record on the Vegas track last year, but rain wiped out qualifying this week. He reclaimed the lead and held it until Kenseth nosed ahead out of another restart with 36 laps left when Kahne had trouble getting out of pit row, nearly hitting Stewart.

“I had an unbelievable car throughout the whole race,” Kahne said. “We just came out, I think, sixth (out of the pit). Tough to say we would have got by

him anyway.

“I had a great day. I drove so hard every single lap today, and that’s just the new Gen-6 car. It was a lot of fun. I love it.”

The Gen-6 is still a work in progress, however.

Several drivers reported various problems with their cars early on, with Clint Bowyer and Stewart both dropping far back in the opening laps. After three days of chilly weather in the desert, warmer temperatures Sunday changed the track’s feel, and teams struggled to adjust to the slickness.

Danica Patrick, the pole winner two weeks ago at Daytona, struggled with her car from the start, going two laps down by the 60th lap and later getting penalized for a tire violation. She finished 33rd.

a single and Wright walked. Zobrist put down a near-perfect bunt for a base hit, with third baseman Taylor Green throwing wildly to first and allowing a run to score.

Jones’ sacrifice fly to center brought in the tying run.

Green, playing third for Canada because Brett Lawrie was hurt just before the WBC began, also had an error in the second when he dropped Zobrist’s high pop fly ball in the bright sunlight.

Canada regained the lead at 3-2 in the sixth.

Joey Votto drew a leadoff walk from reliever Glen Perkins, took second on Morneau’s single.

Saunders struck out looking and Chris Robinson flied out, advancing the runner to third. Adam Loewen’s first-pitch sin-

gle brought Votto home.

Mauer opened the eighth with a single, then Wright walked. Torre made an aggressive move when, with Willie Bloomquist pinch running for Mauer, he sent both runners moving on Henderson’s 1-2 pitch to Jones. Jones connected, bringing both runners home. Shane Victorino singled Jones home to make it 5-3.

Canada made it a onerun game in its half of the eighth but would have tied it had it not been for a spectacular defensive play by Phillips. His diving stop of Loewen’s bases-loaded grounder allowed one run to score, but kept the U.S. in the lead.

The U.S. broke it open off Scott Matheson and closer John Axford in the

ninth.

Phillips started it with a double.

Jonathan Lucroy had an RBI single, then Wright walked once again. Axford came on and allowed the infield single to Zobrist. Jones struck out but Hosmer, a late addition to the team when Matt Teixeira was injured, cleared the bases with a shot to deep center.

Torre benched Miami’s dynamic young slugger Giancarlo Stanton in favor of Victorino in left field. He also moved Ryan Braun to designated hitter and put Zobrist in right. Mauer, the DH in the first two games, was the catcher. Stanton was hitless in the first two games, although he did have a pair of deep fly balls in the opening loss to Mexico.

■ Baseball

WBC ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 for any of the three WBCs. But they looked in great shape much of the afternoon against the United States, which was looking to avoid its worst showing ever in the tournament. The Americans made it to the second round in 2006 and the semifinals in 2009.

For the third straight game, the U.S. fell behind early.

Justin Morneau, who was 8 for 12 in the tournament for Canada, doubled to start the second, then Saunders hit Holland’s 1-0 pitch into the bullpen down the right field line to make it 2-0.

The U.S. tied it with two runs in the fourth, one unearned.

Joe Mauer led off with

■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Hoosiers will be the topseeded team at this week’s Big Ten tournament in Chicago.

Burke and Indiana’s Victor Oladipo, both of whom are Big Ten and national player of the year candidates, struggled to make shots all game at Crisler Center.

Zeller, meanwhile, made sure no one forgot about him.

The 7-foot sophomore center altered Burke’s shot in the lane and was ready to celebrate when Morgan’s tip attempt rolled off.

Fittingly, the Big Ten title didn’t come easy for the Hoosiers.

Zeller scored 25 points and pulled down rebounds.

Oladipo had 14 points on 7of-18 shooting and 13 rebounds. Will Sheehey scored 10 points, six of which came on key 3-pointers.

Burke scored 20 points on 7-of-20 shooting.

Robinson had 13 points, Nik Stauskas scored 12 and Hardaway had 11. The Wolverines 7 of 13 at the line.

Indiana, looking as though it didn’t want to give any other team a piece of the Big Ten championship, got off to a strong start and led 10-3 when Yogi Ferrell’s field goal followed a pair of 3-pointers from Jordan Hulls.

The Wolverines took control in the first half with a 12-0 run, but faded toward halftime and led 33-30 after 20 minutes.

Michigan led by as many as 11 points matching the biggest lead any team has had against the Hoosiers and looked as though it was going to be on the winning end of a

closely contested game until it simply could not make key free throws or stop Zeller.

No. 10 Mich. State 71, Northwestern 61 EAST LANSING, Mich.

— Keith Appling scored 16 points and Gary Harris added 12 to lift No. 10 Michigan State to a 71-61 win over Northwestern on Sunday night.

The Spartans (24-7, 135) were eliminated from Big Ten title contention early in their game when Indiana beat Michigan, and Michigan State struggled to put away the undermanned Wildcats.

Northwestern (13-18, 4-14) rallied from a 13-point first-half deficit, tying the game at 51 before the Spartans recovered.

Temple 84, No. 21 VCU 76 — PHILADELPHIA Khalif Wyatt scored 30 points and Jake O’Brien had 19, and Temple beat No. 21 VCU 84-76 on Sunday after rallying from a 16-point deficit.

The Owls (23-8, 11-5 Atlantic 10) clinched the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament and earned a first-round bye.

Temple and VCU will each open play at the Barclays Center on Friday.

The Rams (24-7, 12-4) lost their chance to clinch a tie with Saint Louis for the A-10 title. VCU is the No. 2 seed.

No. 22 Wisconsin 63, Penn State 60 STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Traevon Jackson made a contested 3-pointer at the buzzer and finished with 15 points, and No. 22 Wisconsin survived an upset scare from Penn State with a 63-60 win Sunday in its regular-season finale.

■ Golf

Golf ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 “Thank you to Steve for the putting lesson,” Woods said at the trophy presentation. “It was one of those weeks where I felt pretty good about how I was playing, made a few putts and got it rolling.”

Stricker, playing a parttime schedule, picked up his second runner-up finish in just three starts. He closed with a 68, and had no regrets about offering Woods some help.

“At times you kick yourself,” Stricker said with a laugh. “He’s a good friend.

We talk a lot about putting.

It’s good to see him playing well.”

The Masters is a month away, and Woods is sure to be the favorite.

Rory McIlroy, the No. 1 player in the world, showed signs of recovering from his rough start to the season.

He had a 65 and tied for eighth.

Woods won in January at Torrey Pines by four shots.

He won for the fourth time at Doral, making this the seventh golf course where he has won at least four times.

Graeme McDowell, who started the final round four shots behind, made a birdie on the opening hole, but never got any closer.

McDowell had third place to himself until he went for the

green on the 18th hole and found the water. He made double bogey, shot 72 and fell into a four-way tie for third that cost him $172,500.

Phil Mickelson (71), Sergio Garcia (69) and Adam Scott (64) also tied for third.

Woods improved to 40-2 on the PGA Tour when he had the outright lead going into the final round, the last two wins with McDowell at his side. Woods last won while ahead at Bay Hill a year ago.

“The way Tiger was playing, I was always in chase mode,” McDowell said. “He was always going to be a tough guy to catch. Fair play to him. He played fantastic golf the last couple of days.”

Woods finished minus 19 at 269 and earned $1.5 million in winning this World Golf Championship for the seventh time.

McIlroy’s week ended on a happy note.

Not only did he finish the tournament, he might have turned the corner with a bogey-free 65. McIlroy opened with a 7-iron into 18 feet for eagle, which he called one of the best shots he hit. He shot a 32 on the back nine for a round that surprised him considering how far away he felt when he arrived at Doral.

He finished with 12 points.

Irving missed 11 games between Nov. 21 and Dec. 8 with a broken finger. He also sat out three games between Feb. 26 and March 1 with a sore right knee.

Toronto has injury problems of its own and won for just the second time in eight games. Forward Rudy Gay was held out with a stiff back, while center Andrea Bargnani was scratched because of a strained right elbow.

Rookie Terrence Ross made his first start in place of Gay. Johnson started for Bargnani.

Kyle Lowry had 15 points and nine rebounds, Ross scored 14 points and DeMar DeRozan had 13 points for Toronto, which had lost its previous two

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Shin-Soo Choo got four hits and Todd Frazier homered Sunday as the Cincinnati Reds beat a Chicago White Sox split squad 7-3.

Frazier had three hits and Cesar Izturis drove in two runs.

Reds starter Johnny Cueto was erratic in his second spring start. He walked three and hit another, but completed four innings and gave up just two runs.

Chicago starter Gavin Floyd allowed four runs and struck out five in 3 1-3 innings.

Paul Konerko went 0 for 3 for the White Sox after getting hits in eight of his nine previous plate appearances.

Rangers 7, Indians 6 GOODYEAR, Ariz. — Craig Gentry hit a two-run homer off Brett Myers to pace the Texas Rangers to a 7-6 win over the Cleveland Indians.

Gentry added a single and scored another run.

Jeff Baker, a non-roster invitee for Texas, hit an RBI double and single in his first two at-bats, making it eight straight plate appearances in which he’d reached base.

Myers, who pitched 70 times in relief last season, threw three scoreless innings before the Rangers got to him in the fourth for five runs. Myers will be the Indians’ No. 3 starter this season.

Michael Brantley, who had stitches removed from his forearm on Saturday, was 0 for 2 for Cleveland.

He had missed 12 games with a cut sustained in a slide against the Angels.

MIAMI (AP) — Mario Chalmers scored 26 points, Chris Bosh added 24 and the Miami Heat won their 18th straight game, easily topping the Indiana Pacers 105-91 on Sunday night.

The 18-game streak ties the seventh longest in NBA history, and is the league’s best since the Boston Celtics won 19 straight during the 200809 season. Miami will try for No. 19 when it hosts Atlanta on Tuesday night.

The win also gave Miami (47-14) a victory over every NBA team this season. The Heat lost both previous meetings with Indiana.

Dwyane Wade scored 23 points for the Heat, who controlled the game despite a season-low 13 points from LeBron James.

Ray Allen added 11 for Miami.

David West scored 17 of his 24 points in the first half for the Pacers, who fell nine games behind Miami in the Eastern Conference standings. Roy Hibbert scored 15, D.J. Augustin had 14 and Paul George scored 10 for Indiana.

James’ previous seasonlow was 15. He still finished with seven assists and six rebounds for the Heat, who held a 27-15 edge in points off turnovers and finished the game shooting 56 percent compared with 41 percent

by Indiana.

Chalmers needed only nine shots to get his 26 points, going 5 for 6 from 3point range and making all seven of his free throws.

He also grabbed seven rebounds, a season high.

There may have been touches of gamesmanship beforehand. Things like

the Pacers coming out for warm-ups and choosing the basket that the Heat typically use, or just about every starter keeping those pleasantries before tip-off such as handshakes and hugs at an absolute minimum. And there were moments of physicality: an extra nudge here or there.

But nothing near the level of those body-flying, blooddrawing clobberings that came during last season’s Eastern Conference semifinals.

Then again, that series was competitive throughout. This game was essentially over just after halftime.

Miami led by nine after the opening quarter, the second-largest deficit the Pacers faced after 12 minutes all season. Indiana hardly folded; the Pacers used a 24-14 run to get

within two when West scored with 2:57 left before the half. The margin was still only six in the final minute before intermission.

But the Heat couldn’t have scripted a better final 6.9 seconds of the half.

After a deflection sent all the defensive matchups askew, James found himself being guarded 1-on-1

by Hibbert, so he simply drove past the 7-foot-2 center for a slam. Wade then stole the ball from George near midcourt with about 3 seconds left, took a couple dribbles and hit a 12footer over Hibbert’s outstretched arm as time expired, giving Miami a 56-46 lead at the break.

Miami missed its first shot of the second half, then didn’t miss another field-goal attempt for eight minutes.
