Facebook goes public But stock debut fails to sizzle NEW YORK (AP) — It was barely a “like” and definitely not a “love” from Facebook investors as the online social network’s stock failed to live up to the hype in its trading debut Friday. One of the most highly anticipated IPOs in Wall Street history ended on a bland note, with

Facebook’s stock closing at $38.23, up 23 cents from Thursday night’s pricing. That meant the company founded in 2004 in a Harvard dorm room is worth about $105 billion, more than Amazon.com, McDonald’s and Silicon Valley icons Hewlett-Packard and Cisco. It also gave 28-year-old CEO Mark Zuckerberg a stake worth $19,252,698,725.50.

Forest School earns honor

The World Trade Center towers were a symbol of commerce, the center of trade around the world, reaching more than 110 stories and stretching the eye toward the heavens. The 400 million pounds of steel within the towers were reduced to dust and debris in seconds on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001. One small piece of the devastation will now call Troy home.

BY NATALIE KNOTH Staff Writer nknoth@tdnpublishing.com A piece of the World Trade Center was unveiled in Hobart Arena Friday morning, marking the start of 9/11 Remembrance Weekend, with Armed Forces Day falling on Saturday. The three-day event encourages community members to express their gratitude to the individuals who protected the nation in the face of terrorist attacks, the families they left behind, and those who continue to selflessly protect today. The special piece of history from the twin towers was escorted from Unity National Bank in Piqua, down County Road 25-A and through Troy to Hobart Arena around 9 a.m. The Thank-You to Heroes event then commenced at 9:30 a.m., with school-age children paying tribute to the armed forces and emergency responders who protect the nation everyday. Karen Purke, special events

coordinator for the Miami Valley Veterans Museum, said the event provided a moment of remembrance for all victims and heroes of 9/11. “(It’s) a special tribute to those who have served and are currently

serving our country and those who keep our communities safe,” Purke said. During the ceremony, the children wrote notes of appreciation

Expect lower gas prices heading into Memorial Day BY SANDY SHORE Associated Press

If you’re lucky enough to live in some parts of the United States, you may see gas pump prices fall to Home Delivery: around $3.25 a gallon or 335-5634 less in the next week or two. Classified Advertising: Even West Coast drivers (877) 844-8385 should get some relief from prices that are still above $4 a gallon.

There’s no yellow jacket for this hall of fame, yet Forest Elementary School celebrates its accomplishments without a stuffy overcoat. Forest Elementary School recently was named as an Ohio Association of Elementary School Administrators Hall of Fame School. The award is the elementary school’s first Hall of Fame School recognition from the professional organization. The elementary school on Canal Street is one of only four elementary schools in the state to be honored this year. Principal Alan Zunke said he was notified in November that Forest had been nominated and in March that the school would be named an OAESA Hall of Fame School. “We have an outstanding staff and terrific students,” Zunke said. “The combination of the two is what has made us successful.” Zunke said he submitted a 12page essay, which included the school’s instructional system, school management and student achievement and many other factors to be considered for the award. The school held a celebration Tuesday so students could get in on the fun with an assembly, songs and cupcakes. “Tuesday we just had a big celebration to celebrate our school,” Zunke said. Zunke agreed the Hall of Fame School award was a great way to wind down the school year. “We are just very excited about (the award), so yes, this is the icing on the cake,” Zunke said. Exemplary educational programs that go above and beyond meeting the needs of students in elementary and middle level schools across the state are recognized annually through the OAESA Hall of Fame School Recognition Program. This award has been distributed since 1984.

national average of $3.71 per gallon on Friday. That’s 22 cents less than the high of $3.94 per gallon reached in early April. Lower oil prices are the main reason. Weaker demand is also helping to push down prices, as consumers watch their spending in the sluggish economic recovery. Motorists on the West Coast, in Illinois and New York are paying the most for gas, from $3.83 per gallon to

$4.54 per gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and the Oil Price Information Service. The lowest prices, from $3.39 to $3.51 per gallon, were in the South and parts of the Midwest. Prices should continue to decline heading into Memorial Day. The national average is expected to be around $3.60 per gallon for the long holiday weekend, but a smattering of cities may see prices much lower.

“You could see these prices of $3 to $3.25 populate the country like popcorn thunderstorms do in the spring,” said OPIS chief oil analyst Tom Kloza. “And that may happen in the next week.” Some drivers already pay 30 to 40 cents less than the national average. That’s because the gasoline they buy is refined from oil produced in the Gulf Coast region, where prices are among the lowest in the

country, Kloza said. And state and local gas taxes there are lower than in other areas. For example, the average pump price on Friday was $3.34 per gallon in Greenville, S.C.; $3.39 in Little Rock, Ark., and $3.43 per gallon in Amarillo, Texas. Meanwhile drivers in the Pacific Northwest and California are paying $4.25 to $4.50 a gallon.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is using weekend gatherings of world leaders dominated by discussion of European economic woes and Afghanistan to solidify world resolve against development of an Iranian nuclear bomb and to encourage a more forceful response to worsening violence in Syria. Obama will have the ear of key players on both issues during back-to-back G-8 and NATO summits. Discussion will be aimed directly and indirectly at Russia, a sometime protector of both Iran and Syria and the chief blockade to such U.S. goals as an arms embargo on Syria. The gatherings come in the shadow of the eurozone debt crisis and plummeting public support for the war in Afghanistan. Political and economic chaos in Greece and Spain underscored just how fragile Europe’s economy remains after an eviscerating austerity regime. Germany’s finance minister predicted Friday that the crisis could last up to another two years. Most of the leaders are part of overlapping international coalitions formed to address the Iranian nuclear problem and the newer crisis in Syria, where an estimated 9,000 people have died in more than a year of violence that arose from the pro-democracy Arab uprisings. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev will be part of a discussion focused on Syria and Iran on Friday

Faced with implacable Russian opposition to significant new United Nations punishments on the Syrian regime of President Bashar Assad, U.S. officials are trying to get consensus among other allies about ways to promote Assad’s ouster. A senior U.S. official said one goal of Friday’s closeddoor discussion at the secluded presidential retreat in Camp David, Md., was to impress on Medvedev that other nations that share Russia’s usual role at the forefront of international diplomacy are seeking ways to address the Syria debacle without Russian help.

to avoid escalating a confrontation with Moscow over Syria, the official said, but wants Medvedev to hear the depth of international outrage. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal diplomacy. Russia is a partner with the United States and European nations in containing Iran’s nuclear program, although with China it has blocked the most severe penalties the United Nations Security Council might impose. A U.N.-affiliated negotiating group including Russia will meet with Iranian officials next week in Baghdad, Iraq. White House national security adviser Tom Donilon predicted ready

which would reinforce the diplomatic effort to prevent Iran’s nuclear work from progressing to the point of a bomb. Iran denies it is seeking a bomb. A possible deal could allow Iran to enrich uranium at a lower level than needed to build weapons, with sanctions easing as Iran shows it is scaling back more troublesome work. Iran says it is enriching only to create nuclear fuel. Its refusal to halt enrichment has provoked U.N. and other sanctions, including U.S. and European Union penalties meant to cripple its oil exports its main revenue source that are to fully take effect in a few weeks. “The message will be that the Iranians should seize this opportunity” for talks, Donilon said. “And while this goes on, in parallel, the sanctions and pressure effort will continue, led by the United States and the others who will be at the table on Friday evening.” Syria is a much harder case, in part because Russia and China oppose U.N. action that could set a precedent for outside interference in internal ethnic or human rights matters, and partly because there is no international appetite for a military confrontation with Assad. Syrian forces on Friday fired on protesters holding the largest opposition marches yet in Aleppo, a sign of rising anti-regime sentiment in the country’s biggest city.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Country music legend Loretta Lynn is three years older than she has led people to believe, an age change that undermines the story she told of being married at 13 in “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” documents obtained by The Associated Press show. Lynn’s birth certificate on file at the state Office of Vital Statistics in Frankfort, Ky., shows that Loretta Webb was born on April 14, 1932, in Johnson County,

Kentucky. That makes her 80 years old, not 77. Also on file is her marriage license and two affidavits from her mother, Clara Marie Ramey, and S.W. Ward Jr., who was not related to the family, listing the same birthdate. The records weren’t filed until 1965, which meant that Lynn needed multiple documents to prove her age at that time. Lynn’s signature appears on the document as Loretta Webb Lynn. Melvin Webb lists his daughter “Loretta” as 7

years old for the 1940 Census, according to a digital copy on file at the Kentucky Historical Society. Lynn’s marriage license, obtained by the AP from the Johnson County clerk’s office lists her as 15 on Jan. 10, 1948. In “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” the autobiography that became an Academy Award-winning film, Lynn told a different story — that she was married at 13 and was a mother of four by 18.

company. Our mission is to make the world more open and connected.” But for many seeking a big first-day pop in Facebook’s share price, the single-digit increase was somewhat of a letdown. “This is like kissing your sister,” said John

Fitzgibbon, founder of IPO Scoop, a research firm. “With all the drumbeats and hype, I don’t think there’ll be barroom bragging tonight.” Added Nick Einhorn, an analyst with IPO advisory firm Renaissance Capital, “It wasn’t quite as exciting as it could have been. But I don’t think we should view it as a failure.” Indeed, the small jump in price could be seen as an indication that Facebook and the investment banks that arranged the IPO priced the stock in an appropriate range. And it was good for ordinary investors, who are often shut out from IPOs or buy the stock at a high price on day one.

consensus among the leaders that tough economic sanctions must continue even while a once-dormant diplomatic process shows new life. U.S. officials say the economic pressure of sanctions is key to drawing Iran back to the bargaining table this spring after a long hiatus. “Each member of the G-8 is a core member of this sanctions effort,” Donilon said Thursday. “Each member has been absolutely essential to really putting in place what has been an extraordinarily effective and, I think most people would say, surprisingly effective sanctions effort.” The G-8 gathering is expected to produce a statement by the leaders on Iran,

Student from Troy wins car Career center rewards perfect attendance For the Troy Daily News

PIQUA

Rewarding students for coming to school every day has been an Upper Valley Career Center tradition for 20years. Career Center students with one- and two-year perfect attendance were eligible to win a car or other prizes donated by local businesses to express their support and encourage student endeavors. The annual drawing was held during the morning of Thursday, May 18, at the Applied Technology Center. This year, there were two cars in the drawing in addition to a variety of other prizes. A 1999 Mercury Sable was donated by Paul Sherry Chrysler Dodge & Jeep, Piqua and a 1997 Eagle Vision was donated by Upper Valley Career Center Adult Education instructor Lois Shroyer, Piqua. Fifty-nine juniors and seniors achieved perfect attendance, qualifying their participation in the reverse drawing. Principal

Joe Davis wants the student body to understand that attending school every day is the key to their success. “We encourage students to make every attempt to get to school each day. If the possibility of winning a car motivates them, we are happy to continue this tradition.” At the conclusion of the reverse drawing three students received keys and a turn to test their luck. The final winners were Hayley Monroe, Piqua, and Olivia Elifritz, Troy. Hayley, the daughter of Heather and Andy Luttrell, Piqua, received the title to the Mercury Sable.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP North Platte (Neb.) Telegraph on Obama and the death of bin Laden: Try as we might, we are unable to picture Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman or Dwight D. Eisenhower spiking the ball at the end of World War II. The image of George H.W. Bush doing an end-zone dance in celebration of evicting Iraqi invaders from Kuwait in under 100 hours is equally hard to imagine. All of those leaders had one thing in common. They were effusive in their praise of the heroic men and women who did the actual fighting, bleeding and quite often dying that were the primary factor in great American battlefield victories. While the responsibility of sending Americans into battle was surely difficult, they each made it clear that their role was in no way comparable to, say, wading into machine gun fire on Omaha Beach.

Social Security reform can’t wait. If you are at the age when you are planning for retirement, consider this: Unless something changes, it is entirely possible the Social Security program will be insolvent while you still need help from it. Trustees of the Social Security program reported recently that, at current rates and trends, the system will be flat broke by 2033. That is three years earlier than predicted in the last trustees’ report. An even grimmer outlook faces the Social Security program providing benefits to the disabled. It will run out of money by 2016 — just four years from now, the trustees warned. That will not actually happen because federal officials will do what they have in the past to shore up the disability program. They will use money from the old-age benefits system — and that may force it into insolvency even sooner than 2033. Social Security’s health has been the topic of discussion in Congress for decades. But, under both Republican and Democrat presidents and congresses, nothing substantive has been done. The longer reforms are delayed, the more difficult it will be to get Social Security back under control. No one even wants to talk about the issue, because of the upcoming November elections. But action is needed — and soon.

DOONESBURY

Forgive easily, laugh often and never, ever feel alone In a little over one month, my family’s set of best friends will become parents. It’s a scary notion really, when the people you’ve spent countless nights out with are becoming parents themselves. Heck, it’s still a scary notion to my husband and me that we’re somebody’s parents. When did all this growing up happen? In honor of beautiful baby girl Kinley Renae making her appearance (pretty much anytime from now until June 21), my husband and I spent a few hours talking about all the little things we wish we would have known when our darling little one made her way into the world. And just in case that whole “oh my goodness what did we get ourselves into” state of shock hasn’t hit Jen and Kevin yet, perhaps these lessons we learned the hard way will make it a little easier on them. For starters, take advantage of everything at the hospital. This was the best advice I ever received from any of my mommy friends. They’re going to charge you an arm and a leg for all of those essentials anyway, so start stowing away all the diapers, wipes and receiving blankets you can. You

Amanda Stewart Troy Daily News Columnist may not know what you’re going to do with the 20 blankets you just shoved under your shirt, but trust me, when it’s your second week at home and everything you own is covered in spit up and you simply can’t bring yourself to walk down that flight of stairs to do laundry, you’ll be happy to have a bundle of blankets to wrap either yourself or the baby in. It may or may not come as a surprise to you, but some babies do not simply fall asleep. I was under the misconception that since a baby is a tiny, helpless little creature that cannot control when it defecates or throws up on itself, that it would simply fall asleep when it was tired — you know, since it doesn’t have any control. That’s just not the case for some (or maybe all) babies, I don’t know. The first two months of

— Bruce Ball, MSgt USAF Commander, American Legion Post 43

Pearyn’s life she slept maybe seven hours total a day, which resulted in a lot of crying (both from her and us). At about nine weeks I finally figured out that if I wrapped her up in her straightjacket-like sleeper (something to stop all those little twitchy toes and fingers), rocked her for 45 minutes and sang “Oh Tannenbaum” to her 14 times, she would fall into a deep slumber. That’s all it took! Speaking of that straight-jacket-like sleeper thing, invest in several of those — I mean it, like 10 of them. These will most likely be the only things that will allow any of you to get some sleep. Unless Kinley pops out with perfect control over her wiggly baby arms and legs, you’re going to need some cloth and Velcro to keep those bad boys tucked in. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Seriously. We know you want to feel like Supermom and Superdad, but you’re going to get yourself into a heap of trouble if you’re not willing to accept and ask for help. Remember that saying “it takes a community to raise a child?” Well, that’s still just as true today (only I’d choose your friends and family, because these days we can’t trust our community as much). Let people bring you food, let them come

and ooh and ahh over your beautiful little girl (and don’t even bother to change out of your robe or shower) and let your best friends watch that precious, but sometimes nerve-rattling baby while you two enjoy a night off. And seriously, take a night off, it’ll make you better parents and partners to each other. Most importantly, don’t ever feel like a bad parent. Short of physically harming your child, we’ve all been there. We’ve all cried right along with our screaming bundle of joy after the third terrible attempt at breastfeeding. We’ve all been peed on, had countless diaper blowouts and we’ve all gotten snippy with our significant other. The trick to it all is to forgive easily, laugh often and to never, ever feel alone. We’ve all been there, wondering what on Earth we got ourselves into and how we’re going to make it through the day, let alone the next 18 years, and soon, you’ll be able to tell another mother the same reassuring thing. Oh, and carrying a change of clothes for the baby (and yourselves) isn’t a bad idea either. Amanda Stewart appears Saturday in the Troy Daily News. The only thing more chaotic than the first child is the second!

Keeping the world beautiful Hug the Earth Festival open to public today BY WILL E SANDERS Ohio Community Media wsanders@dailycall.com More than 3,000 kids this week who have been learning about the Earth, how to protect it and care for it in the classroom got to travel to the Stillwater Prairie Reserve, just north of Covington, to do something else regarding Earth: experiencing it firsthand. The 15th annual Hug the Earth Festival kicked off this week and culminates today with one big, final celebration. Cinda HanbuchPinkerton, the director of environmental education, said one of the park district’s goals is to promote environmental awareness and stewardship of our natural resources, which is the reason for the festival. She described the weeklong festival dedicated to not only enjoying the outdoors, but also keeping it nice and beautiful, all of which follows what the students have been learning about in their classrooms this year. “We are celebrating the Earth,” an animated and passionate Hanbuch-Pinksaid during erton Thursday’s activities. “The schools and the kids have been spending all year learning about how to take care of the Earth, taking care of animals and keeping the Earth a beautiful place. … They are learning how everything is connected and how the actions they take can help keep the world a beautiful, clean place.” Thousands of kids throughout the county participated in this year’s Hug the Earth Festival.

OHIO COMMUNITY MEDIA/MIKE ULLERY

Bennett Intermediate School fourth grade student Savannah Buechter takes her turn on the zip line at Stillwater Prairie Reserve on Thursday as part of the annual Hug The Earth Festival hosted by the Miami County Park District. students from each school district in Miami County to take part in the outdoor festivities that has been teaching and showing children for 15 years the benefits of outdoor activities. Gambill at first winced as he stepped off the zip line platform set up at the park, but soon after a smile breached his face as he traversed the zip line before coming back down to solid Earth. “It was fun, not scary,” Gambill said. “Well, at first I was scared, but then it

wasn’t that scary.” Like many students at the Hug the Earth Day Festival this week, Gambill’s favorite activity was the zip line, which in addition to a rock wall, were new activities to the festival this year. Hanbuch-Pinkerton said one of the goals of the festival is to get kids interested in the outdoors. “In order to want to protect something you have to develop a bond with it,” Hanbuch-Pinkerton said. “You have to love it and

understand it. We are hoping to inspire kids and show them that there are a lot of ways to enjoy the out of doors.” The mainstay of the Hug the Earth Festival has always been the Banana Slug String Band, which the students always love to cheer, sing-along and participate with as they perform their songs. The fun and educational string band songs the Banana Slugs perform relate to science and natural history concepts the children have learned about in the school curriculum leading up to the festival, said HanbuchPinkerton “Our philosophy is that music sticks in your head,” she said. “The Banana Slugs are master geniuses at taking science concepts and putting them to a song that sticks in your head and helps the kids remember these important concepts.” The weeklong activities at the park all culminate with the Hug the Earth Festival today starting at noon at the park when the Banana Slugs perform. Then, from 1-5 p.m. children can participate in all of the activities that have been offered at the park all week long. The event today is free of charge. Some of those events include a rock and fossil dig, a zoo courtesy of the Kentucky Reptile Zoo, the zip line, a climbing wall, a rocket shoot, canoeing, face-painting, chalk-drawing and Earthball. “Life is all about being healthy, happy and enjoying the beautiful Earth that we are on,” said Hanbuch-Pinkerton, inviting everyone to the festival today.

Mother: Daughter’s attacker was a friend CLEVELAND (AP) — A woman allegedly stabbed by her best friend during an argument while sitting behind the wheel of a car tried to drive away and struck her attacker’s 2-year-old daughter, authorities said Friday. The woman and the girl both died. The toddler’s mother, Kimberly Black, 29, of Cleveland, was found naked several blocks away and was arrested. The death of Sharice Swain, 29, of Cleveland, was being investigated as a homicide. Police identified the other victim as Kimshia Ruffin. Her 1-year-old sibling, Taraji Ruffin, also was struck, but the injuries apparently were not lifethreatening. During the argument Thursday night, Black left the vehicle, went into her house and returned with a knife, according to police, and stabbed Swain in the face and neck. According to police spokesman Sgt. Sammy Morris, Swain then stepped on the gas pedal and hit the two children. The car also struck a house, collapsing the roof of the porch. The nature of the argument involving Black and Swain wasn’t disclosed, and it wasn’t clear if Swain hit the children intentionally or accidentally. The women were “best friends since birth” and Swain considered

This home on East 125th Street in Cleveland that Sharice Swain crashed into sits damaged Friday. Swain, 29, was stabbed during an argument while sitting behind the wheel of a car Thursday night, tried to drive away and struck her attacker’s 2-year-old daughter before crashing into the house. Swain and the girl both died, and the toddler’s mother was found naked several blocks away and arrested. Black a cousin, according to the victim’s mother, Anita Swain. Anita Swain said her daughter did not have any children and was employed as a factory worker. She said she didn’t know what started

the argument and declined to comment further. Nikki Randall, 30, whose daughter goes to school with the suspect’s 6-year-old daughter, said neighbors who went to the aid of Sharice

Swain think Black was the intended target of the revving vehicle. “It was on purpose,” Randall said. “She was actually trying to hit the momma.” According to Randall, the naked Black was holding her two injured toddlers after they were struck and dropped Kimshia. Randall said she picked up the bloodied Kimshia and cradled her in her arms until firefighters arrived and took over. “She was bleeding out of everywhere,” Randall said. “As soon as I handed her to the paramedic, she went limp.” Black apparently had taken off her clothes after the stabbing, authorities said. She was treated for a hand injury at MetroHealth Medical Center and then was arrested and locked up pending possible charges. According to court records, Swain pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in 2005 and to permitting drug abuse in 2007. Both times she was placed on probation. Down the block from the stabbing, Julius Jackson shook his head in disbelief over the attack and subsequent accident as he watered his newly planted vegetable garden. “Oh, man, it’s shocking to me,” said Jackson, who said he keeps to himself in a neighborhood where people frequently move in and out.

Police search gas station, arrest two on drug trafficking charges Police executed a search warrant at a city gas station Thursday and took two individuals into custody and charged them

PIQUA with trafficking drugs, specifically the recently outlawed synthetic marijuana and bath salts. Detectives executed the warrant at Clark Station,

200 N. Sunset Drive, as a part of an ongoing investigation. Arrested were Manpreet Atwal, 21, of Piqua, who has been charged with trafficking drugs, synthetic marijuana, a felony of the fifth-

degree, and Kanwal J. Atwal, 60, of Piqua, who has been charged with trafficking in drugs, bath salts, a felony of the fourth-degree. The Piqua Police Department began dealing with issues related to

those sorts of drugs in June 2011 after sending letters to businesses that sold them that warned of the dangers. In October, a new state law banned the substances and since that time the department

began investigating the sale of such drugs at city businesses, specifically at gas stations. The case remains actively under investigation based on evidence recovered as a result of the search warrant. 2277954

Filipino Christian youths chant "Stop the Lady Gaga concerts" during a rally, calling for the cancellation of the singer's May 21-22 concerts, outside the Pasay City Hall in Pasay, south of Manila, Philippines, Friday, May 18, 2012.

Franciscan University drops student insurance over contraception coverage CINCINNATI (AP) — A Roman Catholic university in eastern Ohio says it will drop student health insurance partly because of a new federal health care rule requiring religious-affiliated institutions’ insurance plans to provide contraception coverage. An official with Franciscan University in Steubenville said

Wednesday that another reason for the decision was higher costs resulting from other provisions of the federal health care overhaul. The school’s vice president for advancement says the university, with 2,500 students, cannot include coverage of contraception services and products that are opposed by the Catholic

Church. Catholic officials and religious-affiliated institutions around the country continue to challenge the contraception coverage mandate in court. The university says it will continue its employee insurance plan while it waits for the outcome of challenges to the federal rule, which begins August 2013.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Scores of Christian youths in the Philippines chanted “Stop the Lady Gaga concerts” at a rally Friday calling for the pop diva’s shows here to be canceled despite assurances from authorities that they won’t allow nudity and lewd acts. Sold-out crowds and angry protests followed Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” Asian tour. Fans younger than 18 were banned from the Seoul concerts over complaints her lyrics and costumes were too sexually provocative, and she was denied a concert permit in Indonesia by police under pressure from Islamic hard-liners. About 70 members of a group called Biblemode Youth Philippines rallied in front of the Pasay City Hall in metropolitan Manila. They said they were offended by Lady Gaga’s music and videos, in particular her song “Judas,” which they say mocks Jesus Christ. Lady Gaga has secured papers for two concerts Monday and Tuesday, but Pasay City Mayor Antonino Calixto said he told organizers to ensure that “they follow the rules and regulations stipulated in the concert permit earlier provided by the city government.” “Although we respect artistic and musical expressions, I won’t allow anyone or any group to provide acts which may be questionable in a way at any venue under my jurisdiction,” he said in a statement. “We reminded

Obama stance adds fuel in marriage battlegrounds Fall ballots to continue discussion on measure PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — President Barack Obama’s support for gay marriage has emboldened activists and politicians on both sides of the issue, setting off a flurry of political activity in a number of states and serving as a rallying point in others where gay marriage votes are being held this fall. With the nation divided on gay marriage, Obama’s declaration this month — a day after North Carolina voters approved an amendment to the state constitution affirming that marriage may only be a union of a man and a woman — has added a wrinkle in the political debate on a touchy subject. Obama’s stand has put wind in the sails of gay marriage supporters, while providing political fuel to opponents, said Kamy Akhavan, president of ProCon.org, a nonpartisan California-based nonprofit that researches pros and

cons on controversial issues. “It has altered the national discussion to some degree,” he said. Same-sex marriage is now legal in six states and the District of Columbia. Thirty-one states have passed amendments aimed at banning it. The issue is expected to come up in at least four ballot measures this fall: — Maine’s ballot question asks whether gay marriage should be legalized. — Minnesota is asking whether a ban on gay marriage should be part of the state constitution. Maryland and — Washington are expected to have ballot measures seeking to overturn same-sex marriage laws that were recently passed by the legislatures. In Maine, the announcement has invigorated activists who favor and oppose November’s statewide referendum

seeking to legalize samesex marriage. The Maine Legislature passed a gay marriage bill in 2009, but it was overturned by 53 percent of the voters in a referendum that fall. David Farmer, spokesman for Mainers United for Marriage, said Obama’s description of his personal evolution on gay marriage illuminates the conversations that supporters are having in doorto-door and phone discussions with residents — talking about their “personal journeys” and people they know who are gay. “A lot of people who agree with the president got a burst of energy, that feeling of momentum, about the first sitting president of the United States endorsing a cause that they support and are working very hard on,” Farmer said. Obama’s words also made referendum opponents realize they have their work cut out for them, said Bob Emrich, chairman of Protect Marriage Maine and pastor of Emmanuel Bible Baptist Church. “It’s deepened people’s

House OKs $642B defense bill WASHINGTON (AP) — Ignoring a White House veto threat, the Republicancontrolled House approved a $642 billion defense budget Friday that breaks a deficit-cutting deal with President Barack Obama and restricts his authority in an election-year chalto the lenge Democratic commander in chief. The House voted 299-120 for the fiscal 2013 spending blueprint that authorizes money for weapons, aircraft, ships and the war in Afghanistan — $8 billion more OBAMA than Obama and congressional Republicans agreed to last summer in the clamor for fiscal austerity. Insisting they are stronger on defense than the president, Republicans crafted a bill that calls for construction of a missile defense site on the East Coast that the military opposes, bars reductions in the nation’s nuclear arsenal and reaffirms the indefinite detention without trial of suspected terrorists, even U.S. citizens captured on American soil. The divisive GOP provisions will have a short shelf life, as the Democratic-controlled Senate is likely to scrap many of them and stick to the spending level in the deficit-cutting agreement. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta met privately last week with senators to argue for the president’s proposed budget, a blueprint the Pentagon says is based on a new military strategy focused on Asia, the Mideast and cyberspace as the nation emerges from two long wars. The Senate Armed Services Committee crafts its version of the budget next week. The House bill is not only a political salvo against Obama, who nevertheless gets high marks after the killing of Osama bin Laden and success in the war on terrorism, but a reflection of the stranglehold the defense industry has on Congress. Weapons, aircraft carriers and jet fighters mean jobs back home, and lawmakers are loath to cut funds for the military, the biggest government program outside entitlements like Medicare and Social Security.

In a political shot on the House floor, Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, R-Calif., chairman of the Armed Services Committee, accused Democrats of “taking all of the jobs out of the military.” For the endless Washington talk of dealing the with nation’s debilitating debt, the bill outlines a base defense budget of $554 billion, including nuclear weapons spending, plus $88 billion for the war in Afghanistan and counterterrorism efforts. Conservative and tea party Republicans prevailed on a series of amendments Friday, even dealing a blow to the business community and GOP establishment on one measure. Reviving Cold War arguments, they rejected the notion that Senate ratification of an arms control treaty with Russia in December 2010 has long been settled and that the president has the authority to enforce the pact. Their words of warning about Russia echoed those of likely Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. The House soundly backed amendments prohibiting the president from making unilateral reductions to the U.S. nuclear arsenal and imposing limits on the ability of the administration to cut the stockpile. “The United States should not wander down the road toward nuclear disarmament because President Obama has pinned his hopes on a belief that other nations will blindly follow our lead,” said Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga., sponsor of one of the amendments. Republican Rep. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming called the U.S.-Russia treaty that was ratified on a 71-26 Senate vote “a terrible deal for the United States.” “This is a mess we are trying to clean up,” Lummis said. Democratic Rep. Rob Andrews of New Jersey failed to sway his colleagues with the argument that careful and deliberate elimination of nuclear weapons has been a bipartisan effort by presidents from Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush to George W. Bush and Obama.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Husband’s actions are a betrayal of your marriage Dear Annie: A few months ago, my husband mentioned that he'd responded to an email from a girl he used to know. I didn't think much about it, but then I saw him composing an email, and every time I walked near him, he shielded it from me. He started spending more time on the computer, and I got curious. Finally, I checked his account and saw that he and this girl had been corresponding every day. There was nothing sexual, but there was a lot of flirting, and he encouraged her to keep writing. I confronted my husband, and he insisted it was all innocent, that they were only friends and he had no intention of taking things any further. We talked about it, and I let him know how hurt I was. I said this is how affairs start. He promised there would be no more emails. I told him that would go a long way toward helping me to forgive and forget. I thought he understood, but tonight he showed me an email he was sending her. I guess he thinks that makes it OK. But, Annie, he promised he would stop communicating with her, and I expect him to keep his word. I cannot understand why he would keep emailing when he knows how much it upsets me — unless he has feelings for her. I want to trust him again, but how can I when he keeps doing this? I have loved him for 40 years and don't want to lose him, but I don't think I can live with this situation. — Desperate Housewife Dear Desperate: Your husband doesn't understand that this is a betrayal of your marriage. And although he may not have any real feelings for this woman, he sounds mildly infatuated, and the correspondence boosts his ego. He enjoys the flirting and wants it to continue. First, try revving up the action at home so your husband appreciates what he has. He needs more flirtatious attention from you. Then tell him the emailing needs to stop, because the next step is marriage counseling. Dear Annie: Some time ago, I attended an event at a friend's church. There was an empty seat at our table, so a solo man was seated with us. He seemed agreeable until he was finished eating. Then he took a flosser out of his pocket and proceeded to clean his teeth at the table. I almost threw up. Would it have been acceptable for me to ask him to please go to the restroom to perform that ritual? If not, how else might I have handled it? — Turned Stomach Dear Stomach: People are often inappropriate in public and either don't realize or don't care that others find it unappetizing. It would have been fine to say with a slight grimace, "Would you mind flossing in the restroom? It's such a private activity, and some of us have sensitive stomachs." Of course, there is no guarantee that he would listen. Dear Annie: The letter from "Lake Effect Wife" hit home. In my 35 years of marriage, I have always done the household chores, shopping and cooking. There were several years when I also was the only one bringing in an income. I have never been able to get my husband to do anything. When I ask why, he says, "It's not important to me, but if it is to you, then you do it." I cannot describe how this has crushed me. I couldn't figure out how I chose a man who cared so little for me that he wouldn't lift a finger to help. I always thought marriage was a partnership, but I've been going it alone for a long time. If I knew then what I know now — I'd Be Single Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Help kids have a safe block party in the street Dear Heloise: The other day, when I was getting ready to back out of my driveway, I noticed that my neighbor had her large SUV parked to BLOCK ACCESS to her driveway. I thought that was kind of strange, until I noticed that her two small boys were riding their bikes up and down the driveway. I realized that she had parked the vehicle that way so the children would not accidentally ride out into the street. What a smart idea! — Heather in Texas

Hints from Heloise Columnist It’s one way to hopefully prevent a mishap. I hope the vehicle was parked at an angle and that she instructed the boys that they were not to go past that spot. One of my assistants lives on a cul-de-sac (a dead-end street), and her neighbors

place small traffic cones in the street so the kids can play safely — another alternative! — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: Camden in San Antonio sent a picture of his 13-year-old, gray-and-black indoor cat with intense green eyes, Zoe. Zoe was the runt of the litter. She now weighs a small, but healthy, 6 pounds. She is very sweet and loves to be petted! To see Zoe and our other Pet Pals, visit www.Heloise.com and click on “Pets.” — Heloise

EASY A/C Dear Heloise: I read your column in the Northern Mississippi Daily Journal in Tupelo, and I greatly enjoy it. I have a hint for buying and changing air- conditioning filters. Before positioning the filter, I write the date on the cardboard on the side so I will know when to change it. I also take a picture with my phone of the side of the filter that shows what size it is. I will always know what size to buy, just by looking at my phone. — Sandra, via email

HOROSCOPE Saturday, May 29, 2012 Although your role in a new endeavor may start out as minor, before the year is out you could be elevated to a more prominent position. Once there, you’ll do much. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — It’s your nature to be extremely enterprising and resourceful, especially in situations where you have a chance to advance your interests. You’ll see a lot of such chances. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — The only thing that can stop you from achieving an important objective is your own impatience. Slow down and size up situations before making any moves. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Although purely social arrangements with friends will work out quite well, this might not be true when it comes to commercial activities. Choose your projects wisely. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — It’s OK to be feisty and more responsive than usual to challenges, as long as you’re able to distinguish between competitiveness and sheer combativeness. Hold your own, but without harming anyone in the process. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You’ll have the wherewithal to effectively implement certain plans that require bold measures. That courage you have now, however, might not be as strong tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — There is a strong likelihood that you’ll become involved in an endeavor that someone else has masterminded. Even if you have a last-minute contribution to make, it’ll be meaningful. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Even if you are being put under pressure to do something that has not been well thought out, stand your ground and don’t yield until conditions improve. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Unless you keep pace with your responsibilities, your workload tomorrow might be more than you can handle, knocking you totally off track. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You could be harboring some rather extravagant inclinations that would be detrimental to your financial wherewithal. Do your thing as inexpensively as possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — It’s possible for you to be as strong a finisher as you are a starter, provided you schedule your assignments sensibly. Don’t attempt to do too much simultaneously. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you have a public speaking engagement, don’t structure your remarks too tightly. What you have to say will come off far better if you work from an outline instead of a script. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Your financial conditions are likely to be a bit mixed, hovering between some gains and some losses. However, if you don’t go wild, you could still do OK.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, May 19, the 140th day of 2012. There are 226 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 19, 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe sang a sultry rendition of “Happy Birthday to You” to guest-of-honor President John F. Kennedy during a starstudded Democratic fundraiser at New York’s Madison Square Garden (the third of four arenas to bear that name).

On this date: • In 1536, Anne Boleyn, the second wife of England’s King Henry VIII, was beheaded after being convicted of adultery. • In 1780, a mysterious darkness enveloped much of New England and part of Canada in the early afternoon. • In 1909, the Ballets Russes (Russian Ballets), under the direction of Sergei Diaghilev, debuted in Paris. • In 1921, Congress passed, and President Warren G.

Harding signed, the Emergency Quota Act, which established national quotas for immigrants. • In 1935, T.E. Lawrence, also known as “Lawrence of Arabia,” died in Dorset, England, six days after being injured in a motorcycle crash. Today’s Birthdays: PBS newscaster Jim Lehrer is 78. TV personality David Hartman is 77. Actor James Fox is 73. Actress Nancy Kwan is 73. Author-director Nora Ephron is 71. Actor Peter Mayhew is 68.

Rocket, weather look good on eve of new space era CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA hasn’t seen this much launch jitters since the space shuttle program ended last summer. Today, a private company was set to make history by launching a capsule loaded with supplies to the International Space Station. The rocket maker known as Space Exploration SpaceX Technologies Corp. hopes to join a

short list of governments in flying to the orbiting lab. On the eve of this new commercial era, NASA officials described it as “a seminal moment” and extremely important mission, while SpaceX leaders said they were awe-struck over what they were about to undertake. “There’s no question this is a historic flight,” SpaceX President

Gwynne Shotwell said at a news conference Friday. Only Europe, Russia, Japan and the U.S. have sent a spacecraft to the space station, she noted. “So yeah, we really respect having the opportunity to attempt this,” she said. The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was scheduled to blast off from Cape Canaveral at 4:55 a.m. Forecasters put the odds of good

CDC to baby boomers: Get tested for hepatitis C ATLANTA (AP) — For the first time, the government is proposing that all baby boomers get tested for hepatitis C. Anyone born from 1945 to 1965 should get a onetime blood test to see if they have the liver-destroying virus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in draft recommendations issued Friday. Baby boomers account for more than 2 million of the 3.2 million Americans infected with the bloodborne virus. It can take decades to cause liver damage, and many people don’t know they’re infected. CDC officials believe the new measure could lead 800,000 more baby boomers to get treatment and could save more than 120,000 lives. “The CDC views hepatitis C as an unrecognized health crisis for the country, and we believe the time is now for a bold response,” said Dr. John W. Ward, the CDC’s hepatitis chief. Several developments drove the CDC’s push for wider testing, he said. Recent data has shown that from 1999 to 2007, the number of Americans dying from hepatitis C-related diseases nearly doubled. Also, two drugs hit the market last year that promise to cure many more people than was previously possible.

The virus can gradually scar the liver and lead to cirrhosis or liver cancer, and is the leading cause of liver transplant. It can trigger damage in other parts of the body as well. All told, more than 15,000 Americans die each year from hepatitis C-related illnesses, according to the CDC. The hepatitis C virus is most commonly spread today through sharing needles to inject drugs. Before widespread screening of blood donations began in 1992, it was also spread through blood transfusions. Health officials believe hundreds of thousands of new hepatitis C infections were occurring each year in the 1970s and 1980s, most of them in the younger adults of the era the baby boomers. The hepatitis C virus was first identified in 1989. Today, about 17,000 infections occur annually, according to CDC estimates. About 3 percent of baby boomers test positive for the virus, the CDC estimates. Of those, some manage to clear the infection from their bodies without treatment, but still have lingering antibodies that give a positive initial test result. That’s why confirmatory tests are needed. Still, only a quarter of infected people are that

lucky. Most have active and dangerous infections, Ward said. The agency’s current guidelines recommend testing people known to be at high risk, including current and past injection drug users. But as many as a quarter of infected baby boomers say they don’t recall engaging in a risky behavior. It’s possible some people were infected in ways other than injection drug use or long-ago blood transfusions. Some experts say tattoos, piercings, shared razor blades and toothbrushes, manicures and sniffed cocaine may have caused the virus to spread in some cases. Those kinds of experiences might not raise flags in the minds of many patients or their physicians, experts said. A recent Harris Interactive survey of 1,000 baby boomers found other forms of ignorance about hepatitis C. Fewer than 20 percent knew they belonged to the generation most likely to be infected, and only a similar percent were aware it can be cured in many patients. Also, only about 25 percent said they had been tested, according to the survey, done on behalf of the American Gastroenterological Association and Vertex Pharmaceuticals, which makes one of the hepatitis C medications.

weather at 70 percent. The Dragon capsule atop the rocket contains a half-ton of space station supplies. The capsule will perform practice maneuvers around the space station on Monday before NASA gives a “go” for docking on Tuesday. The California-based SpaceX formed by PayPal co-founder Elon Musk is the first of several competing companies to actually

get this close to launching a vessel to the space station. For now, it’s supplies. Within three or four years, the goal is to have astronauts on board so Americans no longer have to hitch expensive rides on Russian rockets. Well before Atlantis made the final shuttle flight last July, NASA began handing over space station delivery duties to the private sector.

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW..TDN-NET. TROYDAILYNEWS COM .COM WHAT’S AHEAD: BRIEFLY

Wallace’s Debut Wallace Jr. has already crossed off a number of boxes on the checklist for a future NASCAR star. Wallace has even earned a seat for Sunday’s NASCAR Nationwide race in Iowa, even though he won’t turn 19 until October. In a sport that’s been almost exclusively dominated by white male drivers, it’s impossible to overlook Wallace. He’s one of the most promising black drivers to come along in decades and arguably the best talent to come through NASCAR’s Drive for Diversity program, which was started eight years ago to give women and minorities a better chance to land a NASCAR seat. Wallace will be the first African-American driver to run a Nationwide race since Marc Davis started in Nashville in 2011.

All-Star Race Site: Concord, N.C. Schedule: Saturday, Sprint Showdown, 7:30 p.m., All-Star Race, approximately 9 p.m. (Speed, 5midnight). Track: Charlotte Motor Speedway (oval, 1.5 miles). Last year: Carl Edwards won three of the four segments, holding off Kyle Busch for the victory in the exhibition race.

Pioneer Hi-Bred 250 Site: Newton, Iowa. Schedule: Saturday, practice, qualifying; Sunday, race, 2 p.m. (ESPN, 1:30-5 p.m.). Track: Iowa Speedway (oval, 0.875 miles). Last year: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. raced to the first of his two 2011 victories both at Iowa en route to the season title. Sprint Cup driver Carl Edwards was second.

Last race: Will Power raced to his third straight victory of the year and third in a row in the Sao Paulo 300 on April 29, extending Team Penske’s season-opening winning streak to four. Ryan Hunter-Reay was second. Next race: Indianapolis 500, May 27, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Indianapolis.

Last race: Pastor Maldonado held off Fernando Alonso in the Spanish Grand Prix, giving Williams its first Formula One victory in eight years. The celebration quickly gave way to concern when a fire in the team garage left more than 30 people injured. Next race: Monaco Grand Prix, May 27, Circuit de Monaco, Monte Carlo, Monaco.

On The Road Again Penske Racing has hired Jacques Villeneuve to run the two road course races this season in the Nationwide Series. Villeneuve will drive the No. 22 Dodge at Road America in June and at Montreal in August. The Montreal course is named the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve after his late father. It’s the second straight year Villeneuve has been hired by Penske for the two races. The former Formula One world champion has 10 NASCAR starts over the past five seasons, seven of which were in the Nationwide Series. He was third at both tracks in 2010.

Power Boost IndyCar drivers are taking advantage of a power boost heading into qualifying weekend. Marco Andretti became the first this week to top 226 mph, going 226.017 early in Friday’s practice. Teammate Ryan HunterReay topped that during the mid-afternoon heat, turning a fast lap of 226.227. James Hinchcliffe, JR Hildebrand and Helio Castroneves were the only other drivers to top 225. Series officials have increased horsepower, giving a boost of 4 mph to 5 mph on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The five fastest drivers all use Chevrolet engines.

Kurt Busch waits in his car during practice for Saturday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series All Star race in Concord, N.C. Friday.

Laying the smack down Busch, Newman feud more befitting WWE CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Kurt Busch thought he and Ryan Newman were friends. He’s learned the hard way this week that he was mistaken. Maybe that’s how it goes between drivers looking to lock down jobs for next year? Busch is once again in the starring role as NASCAR’s resident villain, this time for a series of incidents involving Newman and his team last week at Darlington Raceway. It’s led to a series of scathing remarks from Newman, who has accused Busch in various interviews of having a “chemical imbalance” and lying about why he ran into the back of Newman’s car after Saturday night’s race. On Friday, Busch offered his version of events for the first time. He seemed agitated about the entire episode, and characterized it as the kind of “WWE-type action” that fans enjoy. “This is good for our sport. This is WWE-type action,” Busch said, snapping at reporters gathered behind his team hauler at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “This is fun. This is entertainment, right guys?” The drama comes as NASCAR heads into Saturday night’s Sprint All-Star race, which is traditionally billed as no-holds-barred event with nothing more at stake than the $1 million prize. Busch goes into the event fresh off a $50,000 he received Tuesday for

what NASCAR said was reckless driving on pit road at Darlington and a post-race incident with Newman’s crew members. It all began when a flat tire caused Busch to wreck with six laps remaining in the race. Newman, who was running behind Busch at the time, also spun as traffic stacked up trying to avoid Busch. Busch then headed to pit road, and in his desire to not go a lap down, apparently sped through Newman’s pit stall. Some of Newman’s crew members were over the wall at the time, and complained they couldn’t have been hurt. Busch insisted Friday no one was in danger. After the race, Busch ran into the back of Newman’s parked car, but said he was taking his helmet off at the time and didn’t see Newman’s car. He was greeted on pit road by several angry crew members, which led to yelling and slight shoving. In addition to the fine against Busch, NASCAR also placed Newman crew chief Tony Gibson on probation through June 27 for failing to control his team, and crew member Andrew Rueger was fined $5,000 and placed on probation for failing to comply with a directive from a NASCAR official. Busch’s motorhome driver, Craig Strickler, was fined $5,000 and placed on probation through the end of the year for interfering with a

member of Fox’s broadcast team. “I didn’t have a problem with Newman. I didn’t have a problem with his crew guys. Then things just really got out of control in a hurry,” Busch said. “I was taking my helmet off. Which Newman said he thought that was a lie. That’s the honest truth.” Busch and Newman spent three seasons together at Penske Racing, and Busch pushed Newman to the victory in the 2008 Daytona 500. So Busch was initially surprised to hear Newman attack his character after Darlington. “Newman and I were friends. We were great teammates, and he needs to check his trophy case on the Daytona 500 trophy that I helped him get years ago,” Busch said. “We’ve always been great friends. There was no need for his comments afterward.” So then why would Newman say such things? “I think we are both looking at the same scenario coming up here in the next few summer months,” Busch said. He may be on to something. Neither driver currently has a job lined up for next season. Newman is in the final year of his contract at Stewart-Haas Racing, and although team co-owner Tony Stewart said this week he’s interested in signing Newman to an extension, there’s no current deal.

Dario hoping to turn things around INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Dario Franchitti just wins IndyCar championships. At least that’s been the case since he returned from NASCAR in 2009. But the combination of Honda’s new engine, Roger Penske’s dominance and bad luck has some Franchitti looking like anything but a champ in 2012. He’s 12th in the standings, trailing leader Will Power by 100 points after four races, and he will need a drastic turnaround just to get back in the title hunt. The good news is Franchitti will be spending the next 11 days working at his favorite track, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, with a more confident outlook. “In Brazil, I think we really turned the corner,” the three-time defending points champ said during this week’s practice. “We were 1/100th of a second off the pole, we definitely felt good with the race performance in Brazil and how the car drove. But all that has no bearing on what happens in Indy.” Titles usually do. Five of the last seven Indy winners went on to win the season championship and since 2004 all but one IndyCar champ was also in the top 10 at Indy. Franchitti is the exception to both rules, finishing 12th last season at the 500 and seventh in 2009 before capturing the points title each time. And fortunately for Target Chip Ganassi Racing, few drivers know how to get around the Brickyard better than Franchitti. He’s had a front-row spot in three of his last four Indy starts, and from 2005 until last year, Franchitti hadn’t finished worse than seventh on the 2.5-mile oval. There is plenty riding on this weekend’s qualifying and the May 27 race, too. A win would make the Scotsman only the second three-time Indy winner from outside the U.S., joining Brazil’s Helio Castroneves. A win also would put Franchitti in a tie with Paul Tracy and Sebastien Bourdais for No. 7 on IndyCar’s career victory list with 31, the most of any active drivers, and, of course it would give his championship hopes a real boost, too. By winning a fourth straight crown, Franchitti would become only the second IndyCar driver in history to win five overall titles breaking a tie with Mario Andretti and Bourdais. Only A.J. Foyt (seven) has won more.

Penske deal for engines also a boon for Indy 500 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Jay Penske risked his whole Indianapolis 500 race program on finding two new engines before qualifying began. The risk paid off for his team — and race organizers. A deal made Thursday in Indy will give Penske’s two drivers, Sebastien Bourdais and Katherine Legge, the dominant Chevrolet engines for the rest of the season and was a big step toward making sure the Indy 500 will

start with its traditional 33-car field. Penske did it by ending his contentious relationship with Lotus, including dropping a $4.6 million lawsuit against the engine manufacturer. He was released from his contract with Lotus and got approval from IndyCar officials to make the switch. After a week of negotiating, it’s all done. “It was nice to see them push it out of the pit box and we all cheered when

he was pulling out,” Legge said after Bourdais shook down her car early Thursday. “It was definitely a step in the right direction.” Penske did not provide additional details about the agreement. He said Chevy jumped in when it realized there may be a problem and helped the team get league approval to make the switch. The two engines, Penske said, arrived at his team garage overnight. But that leaves Penske

with no backup engine or plan if something goes awry between now and when the track closes Sunday afternoon. It’s a gamble worth taking because Indy now has driver-car combinations on the track, enough to fill the traditional starting grid — but no more — for Sunday’s Bump Day. “We are pleased to see this issue resolved as we head into the final practice days in advance of qualifying,” IndyCar CEO Randy Bernard said in a state-

ment. “I have to thank all parties for working together to help preserve the traditions of the Indianapolis 500.” Penske said the two sides had been close to an agreement for the past week, though final details weren’t worked out until Thursday morning. Most in Gasoline Alley thought Penske’s father, Roger Penske, would help him get something worked out with Chevrolet. The younger Penske said that never happened.

Pettitte, Yankees shut down Reds Andy Pettitte pitched eight shutout innings for his first regular-season win since July 2010, leading the New York Yankees over the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 Friday night. Making his second major league start since ending his one-year retirement, the 39year-old left-hander (1-1) limited the young, free-swinging Reds to four hits. With a fastball that reached 90 mph, an excellent cutter and a sharp curve, he struck out nine and walked one, throwing 78 of 115 pitches for strikes. See Page 20.

Tipp routs Ben Logan Wins 3rd consecutive sectional crown BY COLIN FOSTER Sports Writer cfoster@tdnpublishing.com With Carter Langdon on the mound, the odds were in Tippecanoe’s favor. The junior hadn’t been beat on the season going into Friday night’s Division II Sectional Final against Ben Logan — and it stayed that way. Langdon improved to 8-0 on the year, lasting 6 2/3 innings, striking out six and only throwing 76 pitches as the Tippecanoe defense stayed error-less behind him in a 9-3 win at Bob Davis Field in New Carlisle. “I always feel like we’re going to win when he pitches,” Tippecanoe coach Bruce Cahill said. “He’s a ground ball pitcher, he’s not a strikeout pitcher. Anyways, he had 10 ground balls at one time. His pitch count was real low too. He just got ahead of hitters and got the first pitch out the whole game. He forced a lot of ground balls. He was in control.”

NEW CARLISLE With one out in the first, Zack Blair hit the ball hard up the middle and it was booted by the second baseman to put a man on first. Ben Hughes walked on the next at bat, setting up Langdon to drive home Blair with a single down the third baseline. Two batters later, Cole Quillen drilled a ball up the middle, which took a tough hop up and off the shortstop’s shoulder, giving him an RBI as Hughes scored from third. Then it was B.J. Donathan delivering a twoout single to bring in Cameron Johnson, who reached base on a fielder’s choice, to make the score 3-0 Tipp after one inning of play. After the first inning, the Ben Logan starting pitcher had a pitch count of 33 as Tippecanoe batted through its entire order.

Troy’s Troy Schultz competes in the 1,600 Friday.

Tippecanoe’s Andy Droesch competes in the high jump Friday at the Division I District meet.

■CONTINUED FROM 17 events, while Norris had one win and advanced in all four events Friday as both Trojans piled up points for their team — and school records for themselves. Rector broke her own school record and won the 400 (57.55 seconds), Norris got the school record in the 200 and finished second (25.61 seconds), the 4x100 team of Norris, Shanelle Byrd, Sharice Hibbler and Gracie Huffman won (49.17 seconds) and the 4x200 team of Norris, Rector, Huffman and Catelyn Schmiedebusch won (1:43.22). “It felt good,� Norris said. “We got our PR in the 4x200 and broke our old record, we got the same record in the 4x100 that we did on Wednesday and I got the record in the 200.� And with the events on a set schedule, running at specific times, Rector was edgy by the time her shot at the 400 came — and didn’t even realize she broke her old mark by the end of it. “I was standing around for a long time before the race, and my adrenaline was building to a point where I felt kind of sluggish at the start,� she said. “But I just broke the record that I set last week. “In a way, I was just going to qualify. I wanted to compete and run well and I didn’t slack off, but the goal really was just to qualify. I certainly wasn’t aiming to run that, but it’s what you always hope to hear when you cross the finish line.� And with records falling seemingly effortlessly, that can only mean one thing. “It means we’re getting stronger,� Norris said. “That’s even more motivation for us at the regional and at state — and that’s where we’re headed to, state.� Meanwhile, the duo went head-to-head in the long jump — with Rector nipping Norris for first place, 17-4.5 to 17-0.75. “I barely beat out Todda, but she got injured right before jumping,� Rector said. “I thought she should have beat me today. But it’s great to have someone on the team that pushes you like that. I’m glad we both jumped well.� “Yeah, I rolled my ankle a

Troy’s Ashley Rector breaks her own school record in the 400 Friday at the Division I District meet at Troy Memorial Stadium. little. It wasn’t good,â€? Norris said. “It’s nice that we’re both going (to the regional), though. When you see someone else on your team do well, it makes you want to do better.â€? Schmiedebusch also qualified in the 300 hurdles, finishing second (47.26 seconds) after narrowly missing in the 100 hurdles in fifth. “I was just mad about the whole thing,â€? Schmiedebusch said about the 100 hurdles finish. “At the start I fell out of my block, and it threw off my whole race. But then I had to collect myself and come back in the 4x200.â€? There is a silver lining, though. “It’s nice in a way — I know I have to focus on just the 300 instead of both races,â€? she said. “I’ve been to regional in the 300 the last couple years and haven’t been happy with those results. It (stinks) that I’m done with the 100, but I’m not done with everything.â€? Byrd also qualified in the 100, finishing third (13.1 seconds) and Bri Jumper was edged out for first place in the discus by Wayne’s Dajsha Avery, finishing second (1167) and moving on to next week. • At Full Strength Troy’s sprinters have struggled with injuries down the stretch this year, and even Nick James wasn’t

immune. Friday night, he looked back at peak condition. James won a pair of district championships, handily beating the competition in the 100 (11.11 seconds) and 200 (22.17 seconds) and anchored the 4x100 relay team of Devante Bush, Miles Hibbler and Nick Zimmer that finished third (43.38 seconds) and advanced to next week’s regional. “I got hurt at the Miami County meet about a month ago,� James said. “I’ve been trying to come back from it since. I set my PR at the Wayne Invite, but I haven’t hit it since. “I felt pretty good. I ran a couple of solid races and we qualified in the 4x100.� The same relay team narrowly missed making it out in the 4x200 also, finishing fifth — something that James sees the good in as well as the bad. “Maybe we can use that to our advantage,� he said. “We’ll get a little bit more rest in instead of running two races. We can just work on perfecting that race and doing better in it now.� And as for his solo races — particularly the 100 — James wants to see those PRs come down. “In the 100, 10.8, 10.9, that’s what I’m hoping for,� he said. “I feel like I’m at full strength now. I’m in the best shape. I didn’t run as fast as I

wanted, but I felt like today was a success.â€? • Being Chased Branden Nosker held a sizeable lead for half of the 3,200. But he knew who was behind him — and that just pushed him more and more. And even though Tippecanoe’s Sam Wharton and Stebbins’ Jesse Moreno eventually overtook him, Nosker still held his pace and finished third in 9:49.61 to qualify for the regional meet. “No one else went out as hard as I did at the start,â€? Nosker said. “But I felt like I had to get out to go out that hard if I wanted to get out. I knew exactly who was behind me, and they were there the whole time — and that pushed me. “Honestly, it feels great (to qualify). It was hard work. There were some great runners in that race — and some of them didn’t qualify.â€? He joined freshman teammate Troy Schultz, who was a solid fourth place in the 1,600 in 4:32.02 — seven seconds ahead of the fifth-place runner. Once the lead pack separated, each runner claimed his spot and stayed there. Fairborn’s Jordan Redd won (4:23.42), with two familiar opponents for Schultz in second and third, Butler’s Jake Brumfield (4:25.02) and Andy Harden (4:28.7). “I didn’t know what was going to happen. I just tried to run the best race I could,â€? Schultz said. “We (Schultz and the Butler runners) usually run pretty even, but they got me today.â€? Still, it was a good showing for the freshman, who has spent most of his first track season building back strength after an injury. “I got hurt in the first part of the year, and I’ve been trying to come back from that all year long,â€? he said. “I feel pretty good right now. I just need to work on my last two laps.â€? Katie-Grace Sawka and Courtney Mazzulla, meanwhile, spent their time chasing each other — and it helped them both qualify in the 1,600. Sawka was third (5:41.7) and Mazzulla was fourth (5:46.03). “It felt really good. I’m glad we both made it,â€? Sawka said. “We work really well at dropping each other’s times. I knew we had a chance to do it, and I think we ran pretty well.â€? Mazzulla figured Sawka could make it, but she was pleasantly surprised by how well she did. “I was not expecting it at all,â€? Mazzulla said. “She was seeded fourth and I was sixth. It was kind of a surprise for us both. In practice, she’s usually a bit ahead of me, and she really pushes me a lot.â€? And now they’ll push each other on a whole new level. “Now we’re both looking forward to the regional and seeing what we can do there,â€? Sawka said.

qualified in one solo event and helped the 4x100 and 4x200 teams move on, as well, at the D-I District meet at Troy Memorial Stadium Friday. • Movin’ On Up Grant Koch entered the district meet seeded fourth in the 800. He left it a district champion. Koch stayed with the lead pack early and made his move late, not only giving Tippecanoe its first D-I district victory after the Red Devils moved up from D-II in the offseason, but also breaking the school record with a time of 1:55.81. “It feels great,â€? Koch said. “I was ranked tentatively fourth coming in, and I knew there were a lot of great runners in this event. I know a lot of the guys — (Wayne’s Davonta) Beckham and (Fairborn’s Jordan) Redd especially. I felt good with about 300 to go ‌ and I went.â€? Beckham was second (1:56.88) and Redd was third (1:57.43). “It really just takes the right mindset and trusting in your training,â€? Koch said of how to turn a fourth seed into a first-place finish. And he’s hoping he can surprise even more people at the regional level. “Oh yeah, I’d love to,â€? Koch said. “I got a school record today, I’m moving on. I’m just looking to make it to Columbus and show what I can do at state.â€? • Any Given Day The difference between D-II and D-I in Sam Wharton’s eyes? “It’s definitely a whole different sport,â€? the Tippecanoe two-miler said. “It’s really different. If you have a bad day in D-II, you’re sure to slip a spot or two. If you have a slight mental lapse in D-I, there’s so much more depth that you’ll get passed by a lot of people and may not even qualify. “It’s not who the best runner is. It’s who the best runner that day is.â€? And at Friday’s district meet, Wharton left no doubt who that was that particular day. Wharton ran side-by-side with a familiar foe, cross country rival Jesse Moreno from Stebbins, for about six laps ‌ before making his move and smoking the competition, winning the 3,200 in 9:32.81 — 13 seconds better than runner-up Moreno. “I just wanted to go pretty conservative tonight,â€? Wharton said. “The ultimate goal is to qualify and keep qualifying and make it to state. I still wanted to compete, but qualifying is all that matters right now.â€? And with the race coming to a close, Wharton showed a glimpse of what he’s capable of, turning a neck-and-neck

race into a blowout in a blink. “I wanted to work on my finishing speed,â€? Wharton said. “I made my move with about 650 to go and just held the lead from there.â€? And Moreno knew what was at stake, too, and was satisfied with second. “He was smart,â€? Wharton said. “He could have chosen to chase me, but qualifying is all that matters now.â€? And if they don’t chase each other next week, they could very well have the week after — at state — to have their showdown. • Good News, Bad News Still cooling down after running the 200, Ashley Badertscher was mobbed by her relay teammates. They had been watching the scoreboard, and once her name popped up in fourth place, Erica Comer ran over to smash her in a big hug. She was followed by 4x200 relay teammates Allison Rawlins and Sarah Janosik, who told her that she had broken the school record. But upon further review ‌ Badertscher didn’t get the record in the event, but her 26.72 was good enough for fourth place as she made up ground at the finished and qualified for next week’s regional meet. And earlier in day, Badertscher, the Rawlins, Comer and Janosik were third in the 4x200 (1:46.76) and Badertscher, Janosik, Rawlins and Ellise Sharpe were fourth in the 4x100 (51.13 seconds) — all three good enough for regional berths. “In the past, we’ve only made it in one event,â€? Badertscher said. “To get out in three things — that’s awesome.â€? Comer also qualified in an individual event, breaking the one-minute barrier and finishing third in the 400 (59.83 seconds). Her teammates originally told her that she’d ran 25 seconds in the 200, but they went back for a second look, came back and told her her time. And while she was disappointed after thinking she’d gotten the record, she was still happy to be moving on. Particularly after the way her day started — just missing qualifying in the 100 in sixth place. “Today was my last day of school, the seniors’ last day, and I was just thinking after that that was the last time I was going to run the 100,â€? she said. “I was upset. So the 4x200 was up next, and I cooked it. I did a lot better.â€? And even though the Devils were happy to be moving on, Badertscher jokingly had a message for her teammates after the “false information.â€? “Don’t do that to me again!â€? she said, laughing.

76ers tie series PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Andre Iguodala snapped a tie game with five straight points in the final 90 seconds to help the Philadelphia 76ers storm back from 15 points down and stun the Boston Celtics 92-83 on Friday night in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Sixers were a team reborn in the second half and played like a squad that refused to roll over for the championship-tested Celtics. They tied the series at 2-2 and guaranteed a return home for one more

game. Iguodala, one of the more maligned athletes in recent Philadelphia history, put the Sixers ahead 85-83 and buried a 3-pointer for a five-point lead. Game 5 is Monday in Boston. Iguodala scored 16 points, Evan Turner had 16 and Lou Williams added 15. Kevin Garnett had his first bad outing in an otherwise monster series with nine points. With Garnett in a funk, so were the Celtics.

More violations for OSU AD not worried by ‘inadvertent mistakes’ COLUMBUS (AP) — Some will look at the 46 secondary violations committed by Ohio State across 21 sports over the last year and see the athletic department having more trouble abiding by NCAA rules. Instead, athletic director Gene Smith said the minor mistakes were a sign that Ohio State is diligent about finding and reporting violations and that it was more or less a typical year for rules problems. “It’s nothing that troubles me,” Smith said Friday. “It’s normal operating business. It’s nothing that troubles me. I’ve seen all the cases, we know all the cases. You look at them, and they’re inadvertent mistakes.” Ohio State is already under NCAA probation for football players getting cash, tattoos and too-high summer wages. Those problems led to the forced resignation of head football coach Jim Tressel last May. Through a public records search, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported that Ohio State had self-reported 46 secondary or minor violations since Tressel’s resignation. They include assistant football coach Mike Vrabel using smokeless tobacco on the sideline and head coach Urban Meyer wishing luck to a recruit during a noncontact period. Other violations include the women’s hockey program spending $4 too much for five framed jerseys and men’s basketball video coordinator Greg Paulus exceeding his job description by actually coaching during a game. Ohio State also reported that the women’s lacrosse team didn’t take a day off one week, that a men’s volleyball assistant spoke to a man whom he later found out was the father of a prospective recruit and that a member of the women’s rifle team won $75 in a competition as a member of the USA Shooting Team. All are NCAA violations. The NCAA required education sessions or repayment of nominal sums of money to resolve most of the violations. Ohio State spokesman Dan Wallenberg issued a statement in which he said the Buckeyes athletic department always leads the Big Ten in self-reports because it has the most varsity sports (36) and studentathletes (around 1,000) in the conference. He said that in the wake of the NCAA sanctions handed to the football team in December NCAA probation, a bowl ban after the 2012 season and vacating the 2010 season, among other penalties Ohio State has “embraced the culture of identifying even the smallest violation.” That would include a December 2010 incident when five Buckeyes football players took five recruits to a movie. The cab ride to the movie put each recruit between $1 and $5 over the $60 in spending money allowed for entertainment by the NCAA. The Buckeyes players paid the excess out of their own pockets but it was still a minor violation for the recruits to exceed the $60 limit. Smith said that 46 secondary violations involving 21 sports was not excessive. “That’s a typical year. We’ve had higher and we’ve had lower in a year,” he said. “But that’s what we look for. We want an environment where our staff and coaches understand that you’re going to make inadvertent violations but you need to report them. If we were operating at around (a total of) 10 or 15 or 20, I’d have concerns because I know our rules are so deep that you’re going to make mistakes. We want people to report them, and they do.”

Cincinnati Reds catcher Ryan Hanigan, left, forces out New York Yankees’ Curtis Granderson (14) at home plate during the sixth inning of an interleague baseball game on Friday in New York.

Tippecanoe’s Austin Hadden swings away at a pitch Friday. ■CONTINUED FROM 17 struck in the fifth when Hughes led off the inning with a walk. He stole second, then Johnson drove him him with a base knock. As Johnson stole second, the ball went past the second baseman and into the outfield — and Johnson turned on the jets to score all the way from first on the error. Quillen reached on an error, which was followed by Donathan walking. Steven Calhoun singled, then Kyle Peura reached on a fielder’s choice, which brought home another Tipp run. Then with two outs, Blair — who is one of Tipp’s top hitters as a freshman — had two-run single to make it 9-0 Red Devils after five.

Tippecanoe’s Zack Blair slides safetly into first on a pick off attempt during the Division II Sectional final game against Ben Logan on Friday. “We did what we had to do in the first inning, got three runs and then we kind of just sat on it,� Cahill said. “I hate to say it, but that’s kind of what we tend to do a lot. Then we had another big inning late in the game. “I think we were really ready to play yesterday (against Greenville, which had to forfeit the game due to having an ineligible player). I think we just lost our focus a little bit. I thought we were a little flat at times.� After Langdon struck out three out of four bat-

ters in the top of the first, he went on to record two straight one-two-three innings in the second and third. Up until the seventh inning, the junior had given up no runs, while only allowing four runners to grace the base paths. But out of nowhere, Ben Logan showed signs of life in the seventh, getting four hits and scoring three runs with two outs. That’s when Johnson came in to finish the game off for Tipp. The win puts the Red Devils in the district title

Chay Kramer on a grounder. Lehman picked up a run in its half of the first as after hits by Greg Spearman and DJ Hemm resulted in runners on first and third, a double play off the bat of Weber plated Spearman. The Cavaliers increased the lead to 4-0 with three more runs in the second. An AJ Hemmelgarn hit, along with a Drew Westerheide

walk and John Copella reaching on an error loaded the bases with no outs and two runs came in as Cole Proffitt singled to right center. Joe Vondenhuevel followed by hitting a ball off of home plate for a hit as Westerheide scored. The margin grew to 5-0 an inning later on a Copella RBI double, scoring pinchrunner Steven Blenman and it stayed that way until the sixth thanks to the

game for the third consecutive season. Tipp plays Monroe today at 2 p.m. at Mason High School. “This will be our third district final (in a row),� Cahill said. “We won last year, so if we win, it will the first time we have ever won two in row. And that’s what we talked about after this game. I just think we have to bring more energy than we did tonight.� B.L. .......000 000 3 — 3 7 3 Tipp .....300 060 X — 9 7 0 Collins and Johnson.

Reds fall to Yankees, 4-0 in Game 2 of the AL division series. In his first start, at Stadium on Yankee Sunday, Pettitte allowed four runs over 6 1-3 innings in a 6-2 loss to Seattle. Boone Logan pitched a perfect ninth, completing the four-hitter as New York stopped a threegame losing streak. Arroyo allowed four runs and nine hits in 7 2-3 innings. Marlins 3, Indians 2 CLEVELAND — Carlos Zambrano pitched seven strong innings to help the Miami Marlins open interleague play by beating the Cleveland Indians 3-2 Friday night. Miami broke a 2-2 tie in the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Hanley Ramirez. All three Marlins runs were scored by batters who had started rallies with walks. Zambrano (2-2) gave up four hits and two runs as he continued a strong first season in Miami after 11 years with the Chicago Cubs. The right-hander has a 1.96 ERA in eight starts since being acquired in a January trade.

NEW YORK (AP) — Andy Pettitte pitched eight shutout innings for his first regular-season win since July 2010, leading the New York Yankees over the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 Friday night. Making his second major league start since ending his one-year retirement, the 39-year-old lefthander (1-1) limited the young, free-swinging Reds to four hits all singles. With a fastball that reached 90 mph, an excellent cutter and a sharp curve, he struck out nine and walked one, throwing 78 of 115 pitches for strikes. Given a 1-0 lead on Alex Rodriguez’s RBI grounder in the fourth, Pettitte pitched well enough to make it stand up. Robinson Cano hit a solo homer off Bronson Arroyo (2-2) in the eighth and Raul Ibanez hit a tworun drive, his eighth homer of the season. Pettitte had been 0-2 in five starts since winning at Seattle on July 8, 2010 five days before he pitched in the All-Star game. After missing much of the second half because of a groin strain, he beat Minnesota
