Her luck is changing Not missing school lands student a car

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

INSIDE TODAY

Maybe the Bollinger family should buy a lottery ticket since their family’s lack of luck may have finally changed Thursday afternoon.

Troy High School junior Madelyn Bollinger was the winner of the annual perfect attendance car give-away Thursday and drove home in a 2002 Chevrolet Prism donated by Dave Arbogast Buick GMC Vans and RVs. Bollinger’s name was pulled out of all the students eligible for the car, which is donated by the dealership each year.

“I’m never lucky,” the 17 year-old said Thursday. “I stood there stunned for a minute thinking, ‘Is it me? Are you sure they said my name?’”

Bollinger said she never thought

TROY she had a chance to be the winner of the high school’s annual car giveaway.

“I always thought that maybe it will be a friend of mine and I’d enjoy it if they won — I never thought it could have been me,” she said.

Bollinger shared that attending school each and every day is important to her even on the days she’d rather stay in bed.

“I just tell myself to suck it up,” she said. “I think good attendance is really important. I really like going to school and it’s a good accomplishment to say that you’ve never missed a day.”

Bollinger said luck has never really been on her family’s side for drawings or other prize opportunities, so winning the car was a shock for the teen.

“My mom said that maybe she should buy a lottery ticket now that I’m lucky,” Bollinger said with a laugh. “My dad was on his way back from a business trip and I called him to break the news that the bad luck is over in our family.”

“She can’t stop smiling,” said

Bollinger’s mother, Teresa. “It’s been awesome.”

Bollinger said her new car is a welcomed upgrade from the small pick-up truck she drove to work and school.

“I drove it home and it has a lot more speed than my truck — I don’t have to press the gas pedal to the floor to go over 25 miles per hour now,” she said with a laugh.

“I’m thrilled now.”

Bollinger said her new wheels will help her cart her marching band instrument to and from band practice.

“I play the tuba so now I have room for it so that’s nice,” she said.

“All my band friends came up to me afterwards and gave me a big group hug and were happy for me.”

Bollinger said despite the fact that her luck has changed for the better, she’ll continue to “tough it out” and attend school every day.

“It’s been tough some days, but I like going to school and not getting behind,” she said. “I’ll still go to school every day. Perfect attendance is something I’m proud of so I’ll still go every day next year — I don’t want to miss anything.”

annual meeting April 2527 in Cincinnati. That he knows of, Spry said only one other person in Miami County has received the First Families of Ohio award since 2000, and only three others prior to the 1990s that he is aware of.

Spry’s award was based on proving the 1820, or earlier, Ohio residency of ancestors William Burroughs, his greatgreat-great-grandfather, and Joseph Henry Burroughs, his greatgreat-grandfather, of Bethel Township.

“I didn’t know I had several lines of ancestors here in Miami County,” said Spry, who moved to Miami County from Dayton in 1985.

Spry has been an active member of the Miami County Historical and Genealogical Society — a chapter of the OGS — since 1990 and held several offices, he said.

However, he said he often found himself helping others trace their history, and rarely spent time researching his own.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama sought Thursday to advance the U.S. beyond the unrelenting war effort of the past dozen years, defining a narrower terror threat from smaller networks and homegrown extremists rather than the

grandiose plots of Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaida.

In a lengthy address at the National Defense University, Obama defended his controversial dronestrikes program as a linchpin of the U.S. response to the evolving dangers. He also argued that changing

threats require changes to the nation’s counterterrorism policies.

Obama implored Congress to close the m u c h - m a l i g n e d Guantanamo Bay detention center in Cuba and pledged to allow greater oversight of the drone pro-

gram. But he plans to keep the most lethal efforts with the unmanned aircraft under the control of the CIA. He offered his most vigorous public defense yet of drone strikes as legal, effective and necessary as terror threats progress.

“Neither I, nor any president, can promise the total defeat of terror,” Obama told his audience of students, national security and human rights experts and counterterror officials.

The girls decided on the topic by making a list of problems along with corresponding solutions.

“We got the idea from brainstorming — Taylen came up with the animal idea,” Snee said. “We didn’t realize before that there is animal abuse and neglect in Troy.”

Troop leader Amita Snyder, whose daughter is Plantz, said the girls had to receive special permission to participate in the Community Problem Solving category, as it is actually for grades four through six. Unlike the other two categories, Individual Competition and Scenario Writing, Community Problem Solving involves real-life application, which is exact-

ly what the girls wanted to do, she said.

Over the months leading up to the project, the Girls Scouts devised a plan for raising money to benefit neglected animals and to inform people of the problem.

They decided to host a pet show in the future, with proceeds going to the Humane Society.

Arranging the show entailed utilizing several

means of communicating to get the word out.

“We had a public service announcement (on Troy Community Radio). First we did some research and then we wrote a report with research we had,” Tibbitts explained.

Added Snee, “We recorded it on the radio so people could hear it and then we put it online so people would know how important it is not to abuse or neglect

animals.”

But in the end, the troop had only one individual register for the pet show, and thus decided to tweak their original plan.

“They decided to do a pet fashion show,” Synder said. “They want to do it in June, but to get all 10 girls rounded up that soon might be hard.”

Regardless, the Brownies will throw a pet fashion show sometime

within the next few months, in addition to presenting a skit to the Troy Noon Optimists showing the ability to stop animal abuse. But for now, the girls are getting ready for the international competition, Synder said.

Sponsors for the upcoming conference are the Troy Noon Optimists and One Call Now, with all other costs afforded by the girls’ families.

certainty that no civilians will be killed or injured the highest standard we can set.”

In Pakistan alone, up to 3,336 people have been killed by the unmanned since 2003, aircraft according to the New America Foundation which maintains a database of the strikes.

However, the secrecy surrounding the drone program makes it impossible for the public to know for sure how many people have been killed in in strikes, and of those, how many were intended targets.

In an attempt to lift the veil somewhat, the Justice Department revealed for the first time Wednesday that four Americans had been killed in U.S. drone strikes abroad.

Just one was an intended target Anwar alAwlaki, who officials say had ties to at least three attacks planned or carried out on U.S. soil. The other three Americans, including al-Awlaki’s 16year-old son, were unintended victims.

Drones aside, some Republicans criticized Obama as underestimating the strength of alQaida in his speech and for proposing to repeal the president’s broad

authorization to use military force against the nation’s enemies powers granted to George W. Bush after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

“I believe we are still in a long, drawn-out conflict with al-Qaida,” Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., told reporters after the speech. “To somehow argue that al-Qaida is on the run comes from a degree of unreality that to me is really incredible.

Al-Qaida is expanding all over the Middle East, from Mali to Yemen and all places in between.”

Obama announced new “presidential policy guidelines” on the standards his administration uses when deciding to launch drone strikes.

According to an unclassified summary of the guidelines, the U.S. will not strike if a target can be captured, either by the U.S. or a foreign government; a strike can be launched only against a target posing an “imminent” threat, and the U.S. has a preference for military control of the drone program.

However, the CIA will continue to work with the military on the program in Yemen, and control it in Pakistan, given the concern that al-Qaida may return in greater

numbers as U.S. troops leave Afghanistan. The military and the CIA currently work side by side in Yemen, with the CIA flying its drones over the northern region out of a covert base in Saudi Arabia and the military flying its unmanned aerial vehicles from Djibouti.

Obama’s advisers said the new guidelines would effectively limit the number of drone strikes in terror zones and pointed to a future decline of attacks against extremists in Afghanistan as the war ebbs. But strikes elsewhere will continue.

The guidelines will apply to strikes against both foreigners and U.S. citizens abroad.

Though Obama sought to give more transparency to the drone program, the strikes will largely remain highly secret for the public. Congress has been briefed on every strike that U.S. drones have made outside Afghanistan and Iraq, Obama said, but those briefings are largely classified and held privately.

The president said he was open to additional measures to further regulate the drone program, including creating a special court system to regulate strikes, similar to one that signs off on gov-

ernment surveillance in espionage and terror cases. Congress is already considering whether to set up a court to decide when drones overseas can target U.S. citizens linked to al-Qaida.

While civil rights groups welcomed some of Obama’s steps, they appeared largely unappeased.

“The president still claims broad authority to carry out target killings far from any battlefield, and there is still insufficient transparency,” said Anthony D. Romero, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union. “We continue to disagree fundamentally with the idea that due process requirements can be satisfied without any form of judicial oversight by regular federal courts.”

Obama was interrupted three times by a woman from the anti-war group Code Pink, who appeared to be protesting both the drone program and the Guantanamo prison.

The president said at one point that he was willing to “cut the young lady some slack” because the issues he was addressing were worth being passionate about.

In seeking to close Guantanamo, Obama faces many of the same roadblocks that stymied his efforts to shut the prison when he first took office. Many Republican

lawmakers oppose Obama’s efforts to bring some of the detainees to the U.S. to face trial and be held in maximum security American prisons.

But a new hunger strike by prisoners protesting their conditions and indefinite confinement has refocused Obama on efforts to close the detention center. He tried to jumpstart that process Thursday by announcing a fresh push to transfer approved detainees to their home countries and lift a ban on transfers to Yemen.

The end of the Yemen restrictions is key, given that 30 of the 56 prisoners eligible for transfer are Yemeni. Obama halted all transfers to the poor Middle Eastern nation in 2010, after a man trained in Yemen was convicted in a failed bombing attempt of an airliner over Detroit.

In a statement from its embassy in Washington, the Yemeni government said it welcomed the administration’s decision and pledged to “work with the United States to take all necessary steps to ensure the safe return of its detainees.”

Obama acknowledged that the politics of closing Guantanamo are difficult, but he said, “History will cast a harsh judgment on this aspect of our fight against terrorism and those who fail to end it.”

Drones • CONTINUED FROM A1 works that pose a direct danger, and make it less likely for new groups to gain a foothold, all while maintaining the freedoms and ideals that we defend.”

Obama’s address came amid increased pressure from Congress on both the drone program and the status of the Guantanamo prison. A rare coalition of bipartisan lawmakers has pressed for more openness and more oversight of the highly secretive targeted strikes, while liberal lawmakers have pointed to a hunger strike at Guantanamo in pressing Obama to renew his stalled efforts to close the detention center.

The president cast the drone program as crucial in a counterterror effort that will rely less on the widespread deployment of U.S. troops as the war in Afghanistan winds down. But he acknowledged the targeted strikes are no “cure-all” and said he is deeply troubled by the civilians unintentionally killed.

“For me, and those in my chain of command, these deaths will haunt us as long as we live,” he said. Before any strike, he said, “there must be near-

PERSPECTIVE

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

— First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Boston Herald on the Oklahoma tornado: This nation has been pinballing from one tragedy to another over the past half-year, and at times it seems we are simply incapable of absorbing more grief.

From the devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy to the shooting in Newtown, Conn., to the bombing here at the Boston Marathon to the latest — the tornado that on Monday literally leveled the city of Moore, Okla.

Yes, the city of 55,000 today lies in ruins.

But improbable as it may seem now, the community of Moore, Okla., remains intact.

That distinction was made perfectly clear in the sight of first responders — official and otherwise — working through the night on Monday to clear the rubble that was once an elementary school, in the slim hope of finding more survivors.

These are men and women whose children attended those schools, whose families gathered together at church, and who hurried their neighbors into As I shelters when the skies began to churn.

The bigger issue with what the FBI is seeking, though, is that it applies 20th century assumptions about surveillance to 21st century technologies.

Congress passed the Wiretap Act in 1968 to give federal investigators the power to listen in on suspects’ phone calls if they obtained a federal court’s permission.

The advent of wireless phones and digital networks led the feds to worry about their ability to monitor suspects who used new technologies, so lawmakers amended the law to require telecommunications companies to build wiretap capabilities into their networks.

That requirement, however, applies only to service providers that use or connect to the traditional phone grid.

These days, there’s a growing number of ways to communicate through data networks that don’t use any part of the phone grid, including online teleconferencing and virtual telephones built into instant-message programs The irony is that the Internet is actually making it easier for the feds to gather information about suspects without warrants.

As the Center for Democracy and Technology pointed out, the widespread use of GPS-equipped mobile phones has effectively put a tracking device in the pocket of virtually every suspect.

Combine that with the information collected online about the websites people visit, the material they download, the friends they keep and the people with whom they communicate, and it hardly seems as if the FBI is being left in the dark.

LETTERS

Concert will be good for Troy To the Editor: I’m surprised and disappointed in the recent negative letters regarding the Gentlemen of the Road Tour coming in August.

As a resident of the Penn Hill neighborhood, I will be affected by the traffic and noise — yet I look forward to the event. I think it will be great for Troy and any inconveniences that may arise will be minimal. For example, the Adams Street Bridge was

closed for 16 months while being re-built — and we all managed to work around it just fine. I should think we will survive a weekend.

Secondly, The Troy Foundation is a private organization and can spend funds at its discretion. It’s none of my business how it spends its money, but I think the mural is a great idea and will create a welcoming atmosphere for the bands and fans coming to town.

Lastly, the economic impact alone will be a great thing for Troy and the surrounding area.

With an estimated $12 million impact, I'm positive we can put up with some hectic traffic and noise for one weekend.

I won't be attending the concerts myself — the tickets were out of my price range — but I do plan on having a positive attitude, inviting friends over and listening to some great music in my backyard. I hope all the residents of Troy will also adopt a positive attitude and give a warm Trojan welcome to ALL of our guests.

DOONESBURY

Add cropdusting to the list of things I love The late, great Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz captured the spirit of human simplicity when he had good ol’ Charlie Brown muse: “There are three things in life that people like to stare at: a flowing stream, a crackling fire and a Zamboni clearing the ice.”

All three are captivating in their own right. I enjoy watching the water flow in the creeks and rivers around our beautiful county, I’m a sucker for a good oldfashioned bonfire and I could watch the Zamboni clean the ice at Hobart Arena all day.

And to this mesmerizing list, I’d like to add another human captivator: a crop duster.

Early Wednesday morning, I woke up to the roar of what I thought was a band of ninja warriors on street bikes zipping up and down my lane. While my brain was still on snooze, I ruled out the fact that my township’s local motorcycle riding ninja warriors recently disbanded, so I just chalked it up as my father driving a piece of equipment down the lane.

So I went back to my pillow to rest my eyes for a few more pre-

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist cious moments before I roused my son from his den.

Then my mother called me.

My mother knows not to call me before 8 a.m. if she wants a real-life human being to answer the phone.

“Hey! Look out your window!”

So I drug myself out of bed and pressed my face against the window screen expecting a colorful sunrise or maybe an oddly shaped puffy cloud that looked like George Burns — something out of the ordinary, you know?

As I gazed across the green wheat field outside my bedroom window, suddenly a small airplane dived down to mere feet of the ground only 30 feet from my face.

It was one of the most jolting

— Amy Sparks Troy

early morning scenes my eyes have ever witnessed before noon.

And you all know where I work and who I work with.

So as I watched the small plane dive down towards earth in my back yard, I put two and two together fairly quickly.

Dad had joined other farmers around the county to spray wheat fields, including the one by my bedroom window. The wheat field by my bedroom window just happened to be the first farm on the list — at the break of dawn.

Well played Dad. Well. Played.

So as I walked out on the back porch step and watched the dare devil swoop back and forth across the fields, I noticed a few cars had pulled over to catch the action as well.

I wasn’t the only one mesmerized by the death defying aerial agri-acrobatics.

Evan got dressed and came out to see the air show in our back yard.

“It smells like your closet Mom,” Evan said, noting the spray smelled a lot like moth balls. Well, he was right.

Taking note of our proximity,

we stood behind the bank barn.

After feeding Evan’s sheep, the plane narrowly grazed the roof above our heads.

Now I’ve heard about “barnstorming” through the colorful history of WACO and our town, but I never thought I’d live to witness it.

Instead of rushing to get ready for the day, we stood in the yard and watched the crop duster cheat the laws of gravity time and time again.

After Evan and I watched the plane fly towards the airport, I hauled him off to school where he might have been a few minutes late.

While we are notorious for our lack of time management, I didn’t feel so bad as the principal held open the door to usher in the tardy boy for the final week of school.

It’s not every day you get to see an agricultural airshow take place by your bedroom window.

“Twin” Melanie Yingst appears on Fridays in the Troy Daily News. Generally speaking, she’s pretty easily amused. This is not one of those times.

Froday, May 24, 2013

DEATHS OF NATIONAL INTEREST Moustaki, an Egyptian-born composer, singer and poet who wrote songs for Edith Piaf and other French stars, has died at age 79.

Marie-Ange Mirande of Moustaki’s Paris-based production house said Thursday he died at his home in Nice overnight after a long illness. A memorial ceremony is planned Monday at the famed Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris.

Tributes poured in from France’s political and cultural leaders for Moustaki.

Among songs he wrote for Piaf was “Milord.”

Moustaki told French radio RTL in December that he wanted to be buried in Alexandria, Egypt, where he was born in 1934, and where “there is a cemetery that is the cemetery of free thinkers, and it is there that I want to rest for eternity.”

• Calvin Meyers LAS VEGAS — Calvin Meyers, the former chairman of the Moapa Band of Paiutes and outspoken opponent of building a nuclear waste dump at Yucca Mountain north of Las Vegas, has died. He was 57.

Friends told the Las Vegas Review-Journal Meyers was buried Saturday with a traditional service in the Moapa Indian Cemetery. He died May 17 after suffering a stroke last year.

In addition to Yucca Mountain, The environmental activist also spoke out against NV Energy’s coalash landfill at the Reid Gardner power plant near the reservation.

He also fought for protection of wilderness in the Gold Butte area and ancient rock art panels in Arrow Canyon 60 miles to the northwest.

Ian Zabarte, a Western Shoshone friend, said Meyers was “self-motivated and fought for the land and the people.”

• Leonard Marsh Leonard Marsh, the cofounder of the Snapple beverage brand, has died at age 80.

The Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc. of Plano, Texas, which now owns Snapple, on Thursday confirmed Marsh’s death. He died Tuesday at his home in Manhasset, N.Y., The New York Times reported.

Snapple began in New York in 1972 as Unadulterated Food Products, which sold natural fruit juices to health food stores. Marsh, a window washer who would later serve as CEO of Snapple, launched the business on the side with his brother-inlaw Hyman Golden and childhood friend Arnold Greenberg.

The trio didn’t introduce the brand name until 1980 and its popularity quickly soared as consumers clamored for healthier beverage options.

Snapple was considered a leader in the “New Age” beverage movement at the time. Its combination of unusual flavor combinations of tea and juice, along with quirky advertising, was a hit with consumers. It inspired a number of competitors, particularly as soft drink companies took notice of the demand for drinks with natural ingredients.

Quaker Oats Co. bought Snapple for $1.7 billion in 1994. Marsh stayed on for several years after the acquisition as executive vice president for planning before he retired.

“We’re saddened to learn of the passing of Mr. Marsh,” Jim Trebilock, executive vice president of marketing for the Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, said in a statement. “He, along with his partners Arnold Greenberg and Hyman Golden, brought the best stuff on Earth to the masses. Today we tip our Snapple cap in his honor.”

A representative for Marsh’s family was not immediately available to comment.

Marsh is the last of the Snapple founders to pass away. Golden died in 2008 and Greenberg died last year.

2013 Grassland Reserve Program deadline near COLUMBUS — The Ohio Farm Service Agency state executive director has announced the 2013 deadline for accepting applications for the Grassland Reserve Program. The deadline for submitting GRP applications is June 3 for applicants to submit offers for GRP rental contracts.

Both agencies accept applications on a continuous basis; however, ranking dates are established to evaluate and select applications for current year funding. Any applications received after June 3, 2013 shall be retained until the next ranking period. Producers not accepted during previous GRP sign-ups must reapply to be considered for enrollment in 2013.

Preference will be given to: • Working grazing operations with an approved grazing plan; • Land that has been historically dominated by grassland and provides habitat for animal or plant

The purpose of the workshop series is to offer the landowner and wildlife enthusiast a well-rounded approach to managing their property to establish and maintain wildlife habitat. Each workshop will focus on a specific habitat type or wildlife species. Participants will learn techniques for managing land to benefit both game species and wildlife in general as well as information on funding and technical assistance. This grassland workshops main focus will be CRP mid-contact management, grass & wildflower identification, grassland site prep and seeding, weed control and more. The workshop series is sponsored by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife, ODNR Division of Forestry, Pheasants Forever (PF), Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), The Ohio State University Extension, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the Ohio Soil and Water Conservation Districts.

The participants must pre-register with the Darke Soil & Water Conservation District at (937) 548-1715, Ext. 3.

The registration deadline for the first workshop is July 5.

populations of significant ecological value; • Land that contains historical or archeological resources; and • Land expiring from the Conservation Reserve Program on Sept. 30.

Either owners or operators may voluntarily apply for GRP rental contracts as long as the operator can provide proper documents to show control of rental acres during the entire contract period. Participants must meet adjusted gross income requirements and must be in

conservation compliance.

There is a $50,000 payment limitation for rental contracts.

Rental contracts may be either 10 years, 15 years or 20 years in duration. Annual rental payments vary by county and range from $10.00 to $16.50 per acre enrolled. Interested landowners and operators may visit their local USDA Service Center to find out more about enrolling in the GRP or other Conservation programs.

A protestor holds a sign near where the Boy Scouts of America held their annual meeting Wednesday in Grapevine, Texas.

Boy Scouts approve plan to accept openly gay boys GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — The Boy Scouts of America threw open its ranks Thursday to gay Scouts but not gay Scout leaders a fiercely contested compromise that some warned could fracture the organization and lead to mass defections of members and donors.

Of the roughly 1,400 voting members of the BSA’s National Council who cast ballots, 61 percent supported the proposal drafted by the governing Executive Committee. The policy change takes effect Jan. 1.

“While people have different opinions about this policy, we can all agree that kids are better off when they are in Scouting,” the BSA said after announcing the results at the council’s annual meeting near Dallas.

However, the outcome will not end the bitter debate over the Scouts’ membership policy.

Liberal Scout leaders while supporting the proposal to accept gay youth have made clear they want the ban on gay adults lifted as well.

In contrast, conservatives with the Scouts including some churches that sponsor Scout units wanted to continue excluding gay youths, in some cases threatening to defect if the ban were lifted.

“We are deeply saddened,” said Frank Page, president of the Southern Baptist Convention’s executive committee after learning of the result.

“Homosexual behavior is incompatible with the principles enshrined in the Scout oath and Scout law.”

The Assemblies of God, another conservative denomination, said the policy change “will lead to a

mass exodus from the Boy Scout program.”

The result was welcomed by many gay-rights groups, which joined in the call for an end to the ban on gay adults.

“I’m so proud of how far we’ve come, but until there’s a place for everyone in Scouting, my work will continue,” said Jennifer Tyrrell, who’s ouster as a Cub Scout den leader in Ohio because she is lesbian launched a national protest movement.

The vote followed what the BSA described as “the most comprehensive listening exercise in Scouting’s history” to gauge opinions within the community.

The BSA could also take a hit financially. Many Scout units in conservative areas fear their local donors will stop giving if the ban on gay youth is lifted.

The BSA executive committee suggested a plan in January to give sponsors of local Scout units the option of admitting gays as both youth members and adult leaders or continuing to exclude them. However, the plan won little praise, and the BSA changed course after assessing responses to surveys sent out starting in February to members of the Scouting community.

Of the more than 200,000 leaders, parents and youth members who responded, 61 percent supported the current policy of excluding gays, while 34 percent opposed it.

However, most parents of young Scouts, as while as youth members themselves, opposed the ban.

The proposal approved Thursday was seen as a compromise, and the Scouts stressed that they would not condone sexual conduct by any Scout gay

or straight.

“The Boy Scouts of America will not sacrifice its mission, or the youth served by the movement, by allowing the organization to be consumed by a single, divisive, and unresolved societal issue,” a BSA statement said.

Since the executive committee just completed a lengthy review process, “there are no plans for further review on this matter,” the group said.

The BSA’s overall “traditional youth membership” Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Venturers is now about 2.6 million, compared with more than 4 million in peak years of the past. It also has about 1 million adult leaders and volunteers.

Of the more than 100,000 Scouting units in the U.S., 70 percent are chartered by religious institutions.

Those include liberal churches opposed to any ban on gays, but some of the largest sponsors are relatively conservative denominations that have previously supported the broad ban notably the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and Southern Baptist churches.

The BSA, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2010, has long excluded both gays and atheists.

Protests over the nogays policy gained momentum in 2000, when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the BSA’s right to exclude gays.

Scout units lost sponsorships by public schools and other entities that adhered to nondiscrimination policies, and several local Scout councils made public their displeasure with the policy.

• Vernon McGarity MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Former World War II Army squad leader and Medal of Honor recipient Vernon McGarity has died at age 91, a funeral home said Thursday.

McGarity died of cancer on Tuesday night in Memphis, said Taylor Loeffel, a spokeswoman for Memorial Park Funeral Home and Cemetery.

Funeral services were set for Saturday.

President Harry Truman awarded the Medal of Honor to McGarity in October 1945.

According to the U.S. Army Center of Military History, McGarity was a Technical Sergeant in the 393d Infantry, 99th Infantry Division, during World War II. McGarity was wounded in an artillery barrage that preceded a German counter-offensive near Krinkelt, Belgium, in December 1944. He received treatment but refused to be evacuated and returned to battle.

During the battle, McGarity rescued two wounded soldiers, immobilized a tank with a round from a rocket launcher, replenished the unit’s ammunition under heavy fire and destroyed a German machine gun.

The machine gun had cut off the squad’s only escape route, but McGarity managed to destroy it single-handedly under heavy fire and kill or wound all the German gunners, according to his Medal of Honor citation.

The delaying action allowed reserves to assemble and form a line against the Germans.

McGarity received the Bronze Star, Purple Heart and two Belgian medals in addition to the Medal of Honor. There are 79 Medal of Honor recipients who are still alive, according to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.

AP MOVIE REVIEWS • “Before Midnight” — The final scene of 2004’s “Before Sunset” was so romantic it drove moviegoers crazy happily crazy especially because it was so tantalizingly ambiguous. Jesse and Celine, that appealing (and extremely talkative) couple played by Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, who had fallen in love in the 1995 “Before Sunrise,” had reunited at last. In the gorgeous afternoon light of Paris, no less. But we didn’t know what would happen next. Nine years later, we have our answer, and it was sure worth the wait.

“Before Midnight,” the third movie in the Richard Linklater series, is not only as good as the first two, it’s arguably better, tackling weightier, trickier issues with wit, humor and breathtaking directness. The setting is still gorgeous it’s a summer vacation in Greece. (Will these two ever venture to an ugly locale?) But the rest is different. Delpy gives Celine a new hardness here, an edge that we saw only a bit in the previous film. And Hawke is extremely effective as a man who adores his partner but is increasingly frustrated with her. It all comes to a head in a humdinger of a fight just Jesse and Celine in a hotel room, plus a bottle of wine that doesn’t get drunk. It gets poured, though, and you’ll be so frazzled, you’ll want to reach through the screen and chug it down yourself. Rated R for sexual content/nudity and language. 109 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

• “Fast & Furious 6” — Clearly, nobody ever told the makers of the “Fast & Furious” franchise that less is more. More is ALWAYS more and so regular fans will be delighted with this latest installment, which again ups the ante with the cars, the crazy stunts, the crashes and the fights. Vin Diesel’s Dom, now wealthy and living the good life, is lured back into action by his erstwhile nemesis, the federal agent Hobbs (the absurdly buff Dwayne Johnson). It seems a villain named Shaw has amassed a huge military arsenal including a big tank and a cargo jet and is one component short of wreaking total havoc. Even more important for Dom, he has Letty working for him she’s Dom’s former paramour, and seems to be suffering from amnesia. A welcome indeed, crucial element of all this is the film’s sense of humor. Especially funny are Tyrese Gibson as Roman and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges as Tej, Dom’s partners in crime. Not everyone gets out alive. As for the lucrative franchise, though, it’s clearly alive and kicking; there’s even a post-credits teaser here for the seventh film. PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action and mayhem throughout, some sexuality and language. 130 minutes. Two stars out of four.

• “The Hangover Part III” — Daring” isn’t a word you would use very much to describe 2011’s “The Hangover Part II,” the disappointingly lazy, beat-for-beat rehash of the wild and wildly successful original “Hangover” from 2009. And yet, here we are with part three, which runs a different sort of risk by going to darker and more dangerous places than its predecessors. It dares to alienate the very audience that made “The Hangover” the highest-grossing R-rated comedy of all time because, well, it isn’t exactly a comedy. Sure, there are some outrageous lines and sight gags, mostly courtesy of Zach Galifianakis and Ken Jeong, who function as central figures this time when, previously, a little bit of them went a long way. But director and cowriter Todd Phillips signals early and often that he’s much more interested than ever before in exploring matters of real consequence rather than simply mining them for brash laughs. This time, Galifianakis’ insufferable, inappropriate man-child Alan has gone off his meds and is out of control. His family and friends including fellow “Wolfpack” members Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Doug (Justin Bartha) stage an intervention and offer to drive him to a treatment center in Arizona. Clearly, this won’t be an innocuous trek through the desert. R for pervasive language including sexual references, some violence and drug content, and brief graphic nudity. 100 minutes.

Three stars out of four.

• “Star Trek Into Darkness” — Like fan-boy fiction on a $185 million budget, director J.J. Abrams’ film is reverential, faithful and steeped in “Trek” mythology. It’s also an excessively derivative what-if rehash of themes and interactions that came before, most of the characters lesser copies and even caricatures of the originals.

The scenario’s been hijacked and rejiggered from better “Trek” plots of decades ago, the best verbal exchanges lifted nearly verbatim from past adventures.

In short, the new chiefs of Starfleet aren’t coming up with much to call their own. But they pile on the spectacle in a way that’s never been seen before in “Star Trek”; the action in “Into Darkness” is top-notch, the visuals grand, though the movie’s needless conversion to 3-D muddies the images. Abrams was most definitely not a fan-boy for this franchise when he made 2009’s “Star Trek,” which reintroduced Kirk, Spock and the rest of the starship Enterprise gang with a time-travel twist that allowed the William Shatner-Leonard Nimoy original to coexist with an entirely different destiny for the new players. Abrams grew up a fan of “Star Wars,” the next space saga he’ll be reviving with the launch of a third trilogy. But his key collaborators, Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Damon Lindelof, are “Trek” fanboys to their marrow. They know this world, they love this world, and like many fans, they have a particular fixation on 1982’s “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” the best that the franchise has ever had to offer, on the bigscreen or TV. Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, John Cho and Zoe Saldana are among the returning ensemble cast. PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence. 132 minutes. Two stars out of four.

• “Stories We Tell” — A documentary about Sarah Polley’s family: her father and mother, sister and brother, and the sister and brother she has from her mother’s first marriage. It’s about moments they’ve shared that are seemingly prosaic and universally relatable, as well as the betrayals and losses that shaped and strengthened them. But while it’s incredibly specific in its detail and makes you feel as if you’ve known these people forever after spending less than two hours with them, “Stories We Tell” is also about every family. It reveals that we’re all unreliable narrators of our own histories, especially after years and even decades have gone by. And it reminds us that the truth is a fleeting thing, constantly changing in the slightest of ways depending on who’s telling it. Polley, the Toronto-based actress-turned-filmmaker, has shown astonishing emotional depth and technical maturity at a young age in just two previous features: “Away From Her” and “Take This Waltz.” Like those earlier films, “Stories We Tell” focuses on how a long-term relationship evolves over time. Now 34 and tackling a subject that’s so close to her heart, she reveals a whole new level of artistic mastery. Her meta-, multilayered exploration of her own past combines interviews, archival footage and meticulous reenactments so seamlessly, it’s hard to tell what’s real and what’s mythologized. And that’s the point. PG13 for thematic elements involving sexuality, brief strong language and smoking. 108 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Muslim hard-liners ID suspect in London attack LONDON (AP) — A man seen with bloody hands wielding a butcher knife after the killing of a British soldier on the streets of London was described as a convert to Islam who took part in demonstrations with a banned radical group, two Muslim hard-liners said Thursday.

Police raided houses in connection with the brazen slaying of the off-duty solider, identified as Lee Rigby, of the 2nd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, who served in Afghanistan. In addition to the two suspects who were hospitalized after being shot by police, authorities said they had arrested a man and a woman, both 29, on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.

Police would not say whether it appeared Rigby had been targeted specifically because of his military service. Although he was not in uniform at the time he was killed, he was said by witnesses to be wearing a Tshirt for a British veterans’ charity.

Anjem Choudary, the former head of the radical group al-Muhajiroun, told The Associated Press that the man depicted in star-

tling video footage that emerged after Rigby’s death was named Michael Adebolajo, a Christian who converted to Islam around 2003 and took part in several demonstrations by the group in London.

The BBC broadcast video from 2007 showing Adebolajo standing near Choudary at a rally.

Omar Bakri Muhammad, who now lives in Lebanon but had been a radical Muslim preacher in London, also said he recognized the man seen on TV as Adebolajo and said he attended his London lectures in the early 2000s.

Police have not identified either of the two wounded suspects and have not said when they would do so.

Authorities in Britain usually wait to name suspects after they have been charged.

Bakri, speaking from Lebanon, said he remembers Adebolajo as a “shy person” who was keen to learn about Islam and asked interesting questions.

“He used to listen more than he spoke,” Bakri said.

“I was very surprised to learn that he is the suspect in the attack.”

Mary Warder, who has lived in the Woolwich area for more than 30 years, told the AP said she had seen both of the suspects preaching on the streets.

Shopkeepers, however, said they couldn’t remember seeing them.

The two men suspected of killing the 25-year-old Rigby had been part of previous investigations by security services, a British official said Thursday, as investigators searched several locations and tried to determine whether the men were part of a wider terrorist plot.

There also was no clear indication on when or where the suspects may have been radicalized.

Rigby, the father of a 2year-old boy, was slain Wednesday afternoon outside the Royal Artillery Barracks in the Woolwich area of south London while horrified bystanders watched in the busy city known for its decorum.

The bizarre scene was

Holding bloody knives and a meat cleaver, they waited for the arrival of police, who shot them in the legs, according to a passerby who tried to save the dying soldier.

A British government official said one of the two men tried to go to Somalia to train or fight with the terror group al-Shabab. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about the police investigation, would not say if the suspect had been arrested or whether he had made any other trips to the country.

Citing unidentified sources described as having “knowledge of British jihadis,” the BBC’s “Newsnight” program reported that one of the suspects in the attack was arrested last year on his way

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Daughter will have to fight this battle herself Dear Annie: My daughter has a master's degree in education and spent three years as a nanny when she was an undergraduate.

She recently began her first teaching job with second-grade children.

The principal is terrific.

However, there is an older teacher who has been at this school for years, and she is making my daughter's life miserable.

This teacher runs the show. My daughter quit going to the teachers lounge, because it was a place for gossiping about other teachers and parents and speaking negatively about the children. She was pulled into the principal's office and informed that the other teachers found her "cold" and unsociable because she wasn't going to the teachers lounge. She tried again, but her colleagues shunned her. She sometimes would walk into the lounge and catch them talking about her.

For all other teachers' birthdays, they would bring desserts and food, but nothing was done for hers. She brought in snacks on her birthday to share, and not a single teacher ate any of them.

She has tried asking other teachers for advice and has inquired about their families, but they act disinterested and make snide comments.

My daughter is intelligent and has excellent social skills. She can see the oldest teacher is the ringleader of a group of bullies.

What kind of example is this for teachers to set for the children?

They should be mentoring a new teacher, not ostracizing her. Any advice on how to deal with this situation? — Can't Believe Adults Act This Way Dear Can't: Adult bullies are often insecure, particularly if they crave power and control and think you are a threat. While you can be a source of emotional support, this is your daughter's battle. She can document instances of bullying and present it to the principal, but that may not be effective. She can avoid the bullies altogether or try to cozy up to the main bully, flattering her and telling her how important she is.

She can attempt to make friends with one other teacher and have an ally. And, if necessary, she can apply for a job with another school where they take such behavior more seriously.

Dear Annie: It disappoints me when I see ticketed events offer a discount for being part of a couple. Why is it $50 per couple but $30 for a single ticket? Why are single people asked to pay more?

Shouldn't everyone pay the same amount?

Offering a discount to be part of a couple is sending the wrong message, especially to young people. I see this all the time for proms. Why aren't advisers attuned to this subtle, hurtful discrimination against the student who doesn't have a date?

And please don't suggest that two friends go together and get the discount. Why should they have to pair up to fit an antiquated pricing model? — One Price for All Dear One Price: This isn't intended to punish single people.

It's intended to sell more tickets.

If buying two tickets costs less per ticket, people are more likely to purchase two, even if it means asking your grandmother's nextdoor neighbor's uncle. And while we agree that school events should not favor couples, friends also buy these discounted tickets and go in a group. We are all in favor of that.

Dear Annie: You told "Begging for Mummy and Daddy" to avoid the "culture that contributes to your drug use," meaning he should stay away from his pusher and friends who encourage it.

That hint is too subtle for a drug user.

You should have told him that leaving drugs in the bathroom could get Mummy's house confiscated. You should have told him to go to the library and use one of their computers to turn in his pusher anonymously. That is the only way for him to avoid drugs.

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS

‘Idol’ champion to sing at DC concert HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. (AP) — The newest “American Idol” champion will be performing in a concert during the Memorial Day weekend.

The Island Packet of Hilton Head Island reports St. Helena Island native Candice Glover is scheduled to sing the national anthem at the National Memorial Day Concert in Washington, D.C., on Sunday.

It will be televised on PBS. Glover has been on a whirlwind pace since winning “Idol” last Thursday. She has appeared on late-night and morning talk shows, and is set to release her “Music Speaks” debut album on July 16.

It was available for preorder the day after she won the “Idol” crown, beating out country singer Kree Harrison.

According to Nielsen SoundScan, Glover’s debut single, the inspirational pop ballad “I Am Beautiful,” sold 48,000 tracks in its first week,

SUDOKU PUZZLE

Debbie Reynolds: We all knew Liberace was gay BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.

— In the new film “Behind the Candelabra,” veteran entertainer Debbie Reynolds has just three major scenes to flesh out one of the most complicated figures in pianoplaying showman Liberace’s life: his loving but sometimes manipulative mother Frances.

The Oscar-, Tony- and Emmy-nominated Reynolds didn’t need to do any homework for the part. She knew Frances. Reynolds joined Liberace’s inner circle while both were doing stage shows in Las Vegas.

“Behind the Candelabra” picks up the story of Liberace, played by Michael Douglas, in the ’70s and focuses on his six-year relationship with the much younger Scott Thorson, portrayed by Matt Damon.

“Behind the Candelabra” premieres on HBO in the U.S. Sunday.

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

To our female readers: Say ‘yes’ to a mammogram Dear Readers: Women should have a mammogram. Talk with your gynecologist or doctor about at what age you should start getting one. When you go for the exam, here are some hints from the American Cancer Society on what to do that day: • Have the dates of your previous mammograms and locations where they were done (if going to a different facility).

• Don’t wear deodorant, perfume or dusting powder. Some ingredients can interfere with the mammogram and show up as white spots.

• You will be asked to undress from the waist up, so dress accordingly.

• Tell the facility of any symp-

Hints from Heloise Columnist toms you may be having and if you have breast implants.

Try to schedule your mammograms around the same time every year so you don’t forget. How about your birthday (a gift to yourself for good health), the beginning of spring or something as simple as “May can be mammogram month”? — Heloise

P.S.: A personal note to women who should have a mammogram and for whatever reason haven’t: Please go! Five minutes (or less) is all it takes!

ANOTHER CARABINER IDEA Dear Heloise: Here is another hint about carabiners. We were worried about our new dog getting away when getting her in and out of the car. We asked ourselves, “What would Heloise do?” The answer is a carabiner attached to the leash and the headrest post.

Having a good grip of the leash before we release the carabiner gives us peace of mind. — Cathy R., Omaha, Neb. It can be tricky, especially if you have a big dog! Woof, woof. —

Heloise SCREEN CLEANING Dear Heloise: What’s the cheapest and best product to use for computer and TV-screen cleaning that won’t harm the surface?

— A Reader, via email The easiest and best way is with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.

Gently dust your computer and TV screen. Delicate screens, like LCD and plasma, can be damaged by getting them wet, so to be safe, never spray or use window or household cleaners on a screen. If you have stubborn spots or fingerprints, use a wipe specially designed to clean electronic screens. You don’t want to risk ruining your expensive computer or television. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, May 25, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Travel plans might be delayed or canceled today. Alternatively, an unexpected trip suddenly might fall in your lap. (It could go either way.)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Keep an eye on your bank account today, because unexpected events might occur (like an overdraft). On the upside, you might receive a gift or a favor from someone. Who knows?

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You can expect to meet someone unusual today, perhaps a real character.

Or possibly, someone you know well will do something bizarre or unexpected.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your home routine will be interrupted today. This could come from the introduction of new technology or perhaps technological breakdowns. Staff shortages or someone new on the scene might make waves.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is a mildly accident-prone day for your kids, so be extra vigilant. Unexpected flirtations might make your heart go pitter-patter. Sports events might have surprising turnarounds.

Curious day!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Stock the fridge because surprise company might drop by. Or your home routine will be interrupted because small appliances will break down or minor breakages will occur. Oops.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be careful of everything you say or do today, because this is a mildly accident-prone day for your sign. However, you will meet stimulating situations and new faces!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) If shopping today, count your change and keep your receipts. You might find money; you might lose money. Be vigilant.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You feel restless today. You want to do something different, because you feel that you need a change of scenery.

Quite likely, this actually will happen.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Something hidden or behind the scenes might force you to take a detour today. Stay light on your feet, and pack a lunch.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Friends will surprise you today. However, some of you will meet someone new who amazes you. (A real character.) In fact, this new acquaintance might make you rethink where you're headed.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Something unexpected might occur today in your relationships with bosses, parents and authority figures.

Hopefully it's a pleasant surprise. If not, don't be lippy. Just let this surprise pass.

YOU BORN TODAY You are resourceful and adaptable. If one thing doesn't work, you'll try another until you succeed. You always fight for what you want. You're aware of trends in society, but personally, you have your own code of conduct because you value your individuality. In the year ahead, something you've been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish in order to create room for something new.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, May 24, the 144th day of 2013. There are 221 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 24, 1883, the Brooklyn Bridge, linking Brooklyn and Manhattan, was dedicated by President Chester Alan Arthur and New York Gov. Grover Cleveland.

On this date: In 1844, Samuel F.B.

Morse transmitted the message “What hath God wrought” from Washington to Baltimore as he formally opened America’s first telegraph line.

In 1935, the first major league baseball game to be played at night took place at Cincinnati’s Crosley Field as the Reds beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 2-1.

In 1976, Britain and France opened trans-

Atlantic Concorde supersonic transport service to Washington.

In 1980, Iran rejected a call by the World Court in The Hague to release the American hostages.

In 2001, 23 people were killed when the floor of a Jerusalem wedding hall collapsed beneath dancing guests, sending them plunging several stories into the basement.

Cockroaches quickly lose sweet tooth to survive NEW YORK (AP) — For decades, people have been getting rid of cockroaches by setting out bait mixed with poison.

But in the late 1980s, in an apartment test kitchen in Florida, something went very wrong.

A killer product stopped working.

Cockroach populations there kept rising.

Mystified researchers tested and discarded theory after theory until they finally hit on the explanation: In a remarkably rapid display of evolution at work, many of the cockroaches had lost their sweet tooth, rejecting the corn syrup meant to attract them.

In as little as five years, the sugar-rejecting trait had become so widespread that the bait had been rendered useless.

“Cockroaches are highly adaptive, and they’re doing pretty well in the arms race with us,” said North Carolina State University entomologist Jules Silverman, discoverer of the glucose aversion in that Florida kitchen during a bait test.

The findings illustrate the evolutionary prowess that has helped make cockroaches so hard to stamp out that it is jokingly suggested they could survive nuclear war.

In a study published Thursday in the journal Science, Silverman and other researchers explain the workings of the genetic mutation that gave some roaches a competitive advantage that enabled them to survive and multiply.

The key is certain neurons that signal the brain about foods.

In normal cockroaches, glucose excites neurons that tell the brain “Sweet!” In the mutant insects, glucose activates neurons that say “Sweet!” and ones that

For 30 years, people have been getting rid of cockroaches by setting out sweet-tasting bait mixed with poison. But in the early 1990s, a formerly effective product stopped working. Some cockroaches had lost their sweet tooth, rejecting the corn syrup meant to attract them. Later studies showed they were specifically turned off by the sugar glucose in the syrup. Scientists reported Thursday that the key is an altered behavior of certain nerves that signal the brain about foods. say “Yuck!” The “Yuck!” neurons dampen the signal from the others, so the brain gets the message the taste is awful.

This unusual nerve activity appeared in glucose-hating cockroaches collected from Puerto Rico as well as descendants of the Florida insects.

The research focused on the German cockroach, a small kind that can hitch a ride into your home in a grocery bag, not that big lunk known as the American cockroach. Such finicky eating habits have also been seen in these smaller roaches in Southern California, Cincinnati, Indiana, South Korea and Russia.

Scientists are now looking to see if other kinds of cockroaches show aversion to glucose.

The new work is nifty science. But does it explain why you can’t get rid of the little buggers in your kitchen?

Probably not, said Coby Schal, another study author at North Carolina State.

Tests show that the glucose-hating cockroaches are happy to eat most types of bait these days, suggesting that manufacturers have removed the glucose or masked it, he said. (Bait ingredients are a trade secret.)

What’s more, the researchers found glucose-hating cockroaches in only seven of 19 populations they sampled from various locations.

Frankly, if the bait you put out isn’t working, it’s probably because you’re using it incorrectly, suggested Schal, who

said he consults to the pesticide industry free of charge.

Still, he said, the new work has potential to help many consumers.

By studying how cockroaches evolve to evade our poisons, scientists may find clues to designing bait that the pests cannot resist.

It’s not clear when the Florida cockroaches first encountered bait with glucose or how quickly they ditched their taste for the sugar, he said.

But he said it’s reasonable to estimate that it took maybe only five years for that glucose aversion to spread to so many cockroaches that the bait was no longer effective.

That’s about 25 generations of German cockroaches, which can reproduce about one to three months after they’re born, Schal said.

The glucose aversion may have arisen in an individual cockroach in response to bait. Or it may have already been present in just a few individuals when the arrival of the bait suddenly gave them an advantage for surviving and reproducing.

Their offspring would inherit the trait and increasingly replace other cockroaches.

Michael Scharf, an entomologist at Purdue University who studies urban pests but wasn’t involved in the new work, noted that since the 1950s, cockroaches have shown they can also evolve resistance to insecticides.

He agreed the latest results should help scientists develop better products to control roaches. ___ Online: Journal Science: http://www.sciencemag.org ___ Malcolm Ritter can be followed at http://www.twitter.com/m alcolmritter

LaTisha Garcia wipes a tear from her eye in front of her demolished home as she talks about carrying her injured daughter following Sunday's tornado in Moore, Okla., Thursday.

Mom becomes ‘face’ of storm MOORE, Okla. (AP) — A massive tornado was carving its way through town. There was no time to hesitate. LaTisha Garcia had to get to her children.

And so she raced against the storm. She had 30 miles to cover from her job in Edmond to Plaza Towers Elementary School, where her 8-year-old daughter Jazmin Rodriguez is a third grader.

She lost.

The tornado got there first, and the destruction kept her from driving the final few hundred yards.

And so she got out of her car and ran, arriving to find little left of the school and almost nothing of the neighborhood.

Panic set in.

Survivors of the storm were frantic, pulling children from the twisted metal and piles of concrete rubble that remained of what was once a school.

She knew her three youngest children were safe at their daycare, but Jazmin was somewhere inside the rubble.

Terror came next.

“Right when I ran up to ask if I could start pulling people out or try to help, some guy just handed her to me,” Garcia said. “I only recognized her from her clothes. My mind was in so many different places, I couldn’t even remember what she wore that day.”

Finally, relief.

The emotion seared on her face, she scooped her daughter into her arms and set off across the now barren landscape away from the place where seven of Jazmin’s schoolmates had died.

An Associated Press photographer, Sue Ogrocki, captured the moment: Mother and daughter, clutching each other, making their way to safety through a decimated neighborhood. All that stood behind them was a tree stripped of its limbs and bark, brutally wrapped in sheet metal by the storm.

“It was a long way toward the end of the parking lot,” Garcia recalled.

“And she’s a heavy girl.

There were times I didn’t

think I was going to make it. But I did.”

The picture was published on hundreds of front pages around the world, becoming one of the enduring images from the storm.

Garcia, 28, was exhausted after carrying her daughter to the parking lot, where a paramedic placed her on a backboard and rushed her to a nearby hospital.

As they pulled into the parking lot of the medical center, emotions flooded over her again as she realized that building also had been decimated by the twister.

“It was kind of overwhelming seeing the hospital was hit too,” she said, her voice quivering. “It made me feel more helpless than I already felt.”

She also was gripped by what her daughter shared about the frightening moments inside the school as she and her classmates took shelter in a hallway as the storm approached.

“She said all she really remembers is them telling them to get in the position

for tornadoes. She remembers everything hitting her back, the noise, kids screaming and crying,” Garcia said. “She said when she felt everything hit her back, she tried her best to just push everything off of her, and then she said she started getting lightheaded but that she just remembered to keep breathing.

“She heard a lot of kids screaming for their moms.

She just felt stuff hit her face.”

Jazmin ended up with bumps and bruises, but no long lasting injuries from the ordeal.

And although Garcia’s home a few blocks from the school was reduced to a pile of rubble, she’s thankful Jazmin and her three younger children all survived.

“She’s just pretty banged up. The pain in her back and the soreness is just from her trying to push the bricks off of her,” Garcia said. “I know she definitely had God’s arms around her to walk out of there.”

Kids, teachers from school reunite MOORE, Okla. (AP) — Students from a suburban Oklahoma City elementary school destroyed by this week’s tornado reunited with their teachers Thursday and collected whatever could be salvaged from the ruins.

Some children carried thank-you cards. A firstgrader was eager to see her favorite gym teacher and for a chance to say goodbye for the school year.

It was one of many difficult goodbyes for the city of Moore. Family and friends attended the funeral of a 9year-old girl who died at Plaza Towers Elementary School the first since Monday’s storm, which killed 24 people.

Students who survived the storm’s onslaught at the school and those whose parents had pulled them out of class just before it hit gathered with their teachers at another Moore school that wasn’t damaged.

Seven children died at Plaza Towers.

Authorities kept journalists at a distance, but Cheryle Dixon, a grandmother of first-grader Crisily Dixon, talked to a reporter about how hard it was for the little girl.

“A lot of tears, a lot of worry about her gym teacher, a lot of worry about a lot of the teachers that she knew, so she just can’t believe it,” Dixon said.

The father of 7-year-old Crisily had picked her up an hour before the tornado struck when he learned the severity of the approaching storm a top-of-the-scale EF5 that was on the ground for 40 minutes, according to the National Severe Storm Lab in Norman, Okla.

The police and the mayor’s office in Oklahoma City both estimate that around 12,000 homes were

damaged and destroyed by the storm in the city and to the south in Moore.

After the disaster, when Crisily saw pictures on the news of a car in the hallway that leads to her classroom, “her little face, she just turned pale,” Dixon said.

At the same time, Dixon said her granddaughter was looking ahead to second grade in the fall and was hoping a book she needed was fished out of the school’s ruins.

“She said, ‘What about my book, what about my book? I’m supposed to have it for next year,’” the grandmother said, her eyes filling with tears. “She said, ‘I’m supposed to take it to second grade. It was in my desk.’ “ Moore Schools Superintendent Susan Pierce said Thursday that Plaza Towers and Briarwood Elementary schools will be rebuilt. Briarwood was heavily damaged but no one was killed there.

“And we will reopen and we will have school in

August,” she said.

Also headed to Thursday’s reunion of classmates and students was Carly Ramirez, who held her 4-year-old daughter, Kamrin, in her arms. The small, ponytailed brunette shyly buried her face in her mother’s neck, tightly holding two thank-you cards she planned to give her teachers.

In each envelope were two notes: One from Kamrin and one from her mother.

Kamrin also was not at Plaza Towers when the storm hit, having already left her morning preschool class. She rode out the storm in a shelter at her grandfather’s home.

The main reason they came, though, Ramirez said was so that Kamrin could see with her own eyes that all her teachers had emerged from the school alive.

“She’s asked about her teacher and her book buddy, which is a fifth-grader that goes to the library with her

on Wednesdays,” Ramirez said.

Gov. Mary Fallin said Thursday that as the removal of mountains of debris begins “we are also in a stage of healing.” She said a public memorial service would be held Sunday night at a church.

At Thursday’s funeral service, relatives and friends gathered in a chapel in Oklahoma City to remember 9-year-old Antonia Candelaria. Mournful country music played in the chapel, which was adorned with flowers and photos of the smiling girl.

An obituary posted on the funeral home’s website said the girl loved to sing she knew the words to most of the songs on the country radio station her family frequently had on and she would sing along, bringing joy to the house.

The family’s remembrance also talked of the “gentle and loving spirit” of a girl whose nickname was “ladybug.”

BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com TROY — Scot Brewer has a feeling that in a few years, a number of Division I NCAA college football coaches in the area are going to be kicking themselves.

Troy High School senior football player Nick Zimmer has committed to play football at Ashland University, an NCAA Division II program. Brewer, Troy’s coach, has no doubt Zimmer is a Division I talent

TROY going to a Division II school.

“I think Ashland is getting an absolute steal,” Brewer said.

“They are getting a pretty prize.

He’s a guy that is going to grow and mature and do a lot of things at the college level. I really do think he is a Division I player. I think he’d be a perfect (Mid-American Conference)-type safety.”

Zimmer isn’t concerned about what could have been, however.

He’s just looking forward to the opportunity to play for the

Eagles next fall.

“They’ve got really good facilities and a great coaching staff,” Z i m m e r said. “They are coming off an 11-1 ZIMMER season and they won their conference.

They’ve got a winning program and I think they are going to help make me a successful foot-

ball player.”

Zimmer said Ashland has him slated to play safety — but are in love with his versatility. In his career at Troy, Zimmer saw time at quarterback as a freshman, outside linebacker as a sophomore and safety as both a junior and a senior. This past fall, Zimmer also saw time at wide receiver, was Troy’s wildcat quarterback and returned kickoffs, including a school-record 98yard kickoff return to open the game against Division II state

Indians rout Red Sox BOSTON (AP) — Drew Stubbs and Mark Reynolds drove in three runs each and Cleveland had 16 hits in the Indians’ 12-3 win over the Boston Red Sox in manager Terry Francona’s return to Fenway Park on Thursday night.

Francona, let go by Boston after the 2011 season, got a standing ovation after the first inning during a video tribute on the center-field scoreboard. But he didn’t have to leave the visiting dugout during the game because all of Cleveland’s pitching changes came at the start of an inning.

In eight years as manager, Francona led the Red Sox to two World Series championships. In his first year as Cleveland’s manager, he

has the Indians in first place in the AL Central after they went 68-94 last season.

They’re 22-9 in their last 31 games.

On Thursday, his team gave him another pleasant Fenway memory.

The 12 runs are the most scored by the Indians in the park since June 28, 2005 and the most they scored there without a home run since 1953.

Zach McAllister (4-3) allowed three runs in five innings. He hasn’t allowed more than three earned runs in any of his nine starts this AP PHOTO year.

QB Weeden to help with Oklahoma relief BEREA (AP) — Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden is heading home to help his cherished Oklahoma heal.

Weeden will return to his home state over the holiday weekend to assist in any way he can in the aftermath of the deadly tornado that tore through Moore, Okla., killing 24 people and destroying more than a thousand homes in the Oklahoma City suburb earlier this week.

Weeden has been in contact with Oklahoma Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb and he plans to pitch in and contribute anyway possible.

“I’ll do anything, whether it’s getting in the rubble and doing whatever, it doesn’t matter,” said Weeden, who is from Edmond. “I’ll be there to

help.”

The disaster touched Weeden’s family. His wife, Melanie, is from Moore, and her mother and brother still live in the city, which has been hit by four tornadoes since 1998.

Although they escaped injury from the latest monster twister, which had winds clocked at over 200 mph, their homes sustained some damage.

“It actually went right through my wife’s hometown,” Weeden said following Thursday’s practice.

“Fourth Street, the path they keep talking about, my mother-in-law lives on Main, which is four blocks north of it, and my brotherin-law lives two blocks south of it. It went right over the top of them. Very, very fortunate to have no injuries and everybody’s

safe.”

Weeden, who starred at Oklahoma State, said there were some frantic moments for he and his wife when they couldn’t contact family as the tornado took aim at Moore. WEEDEN “There’s a park, literally there’s two blocks between my brother-in-law and my mother-in-law,” he said. “They said, ‘If you’re at that park, get out of the way.’ It was destroyed.

Once we heard it was destroyed, obviously there’s no cellphone service. We couldn’t get hold of them for about an hour. So my wife’s panicked and we’re panicked. It was tough being so far away.”

Weeden said family

members were able to take cover in time.

“My brotherin-law got in the car and drove away from it,” he said. “My mother-in-law works in the administration building for Moore Public Schools, so she was in a basement, fortunately. Very, very blessed, we got lucky. But being up here, seeing my wife, she was rattled and it was very tough.”

Authorities believe about 33,000 people were affected by the tornado, and monetary damage is estimated to be around $2 billion.

Weeden was 14 in 1998 when Moore was hit by a tornado referred to as the

■ Baseball

“May 3 tornado,” which had 300 mph winds and killed more than 40 people. While folks living in Tornado Alley are accustomed to the fierce storms, nothing could prepare them for a colossal tornado like the one that struck this week.

“Unfortunately living in that part of the country, it’s just what you deal with,” Weeden said. “You hope they’re never as big as they were. That’s a big-time tornado. We’ve been fortunate, we’ve only had a few of those since I’ve been around. They’re tough. My best wishes go to every family involved. I hope everybody recovers and all well comes out of it.”

Browns wide receiver Josh Cooper, too, was affected by the tornado.

His father, Mike, works as a construction manager

in Moore and was forced into an underground shelter. Cooper, who is from Mustang, Okla., said he felt helpless as he watched TV coverage of the disaster.

“It was really tough,” said Cooper, a college teammate of Weeden’s. “My heart was hurtin’ pretty good that day. I was checking in with my family and friends and hoping they were safe.”

Cooper said no one he knew was seriously injured.

Oklahomans are tough, and Cooper is sure they will emerge from the disaster together.

“Everybody is kind of helping everybody,” he said. “We’ll be fine. We get through things like this all the time. Oklahoma strong, you know?”

Trojans ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 said. “Being on the bottom of that pile, you’ve got your whole family on top of you.

There’s no better feeling in the world.”

After the pile-up was over, Kendall also received plenty of “I love you, man”s and “You’re my hero”s from his teammates — as well as one offer to pay back the favor and carry him to the bus.

“He deserves that,” Troy coach Ty Welker said of Kendall. “He came out and did what we asked him to, what we’ve been looking for out of him all year. He executed and threw really, really well tonight.”

Kendall found himself in a jam to begin — but the way Troy got out of it set the tone for the rest of the night.

A leadoff single, a walk and a hit-batter loaded the bases with no one out to put Kendall’s back to the wall. But he struck out cleanup hitter Nick Bertram looking on three pitches, and when the next batter whiffed on a suicide bunt attempt, the Trojans caught the runner on third in a rundown and sent him back to the dugout.

Kendall then finished off another three-pitch strikeout looking, and Centerville (24-2) got nothing out of it.

“I just had to buckle down and throw strikes,” Kendall said. “If you have faith in your defense — like I do — then all you’ve got to do is throw strikes.”

Troy took a 1-0 lead in the top of the third after an errant throw on a grounder by Nick Sanders brought Cascaden all the way from first to score, but Centerville got a two-out RBI single in the bottom of the inning from Sean Murphy to tie the score — and thanks to Kendall and Elk starter Derek Hendrixson, it stayed that way until the top of the seventh.

And the game-winning hit couldn’t have come from a more fitting source.

After Cam Weaver drew a leadoff walk and Devin Blakely bunted him to second, Cascaden scorched the first pitch he saw right at the third

“You know, I’ve never beat Centerville,” Cascaden said. “All four years, every sport I play — baseball, football, basketball — never beat ‘em. So I gave the team a speech the other night about it. And yeah, they made fun of me a little for it. But it worked.

“I just went up to the plate hacking. The first pitch came in, and I hit it hard, right over the guy’s glove.”

The Trojans were far from done, though.

Sanders blasted an RBI triple over the center fielder’s head to score Cascaden and chase Hendrixson from the game, and then Sanders scored on a grounder by Magoteaux when the Centerville second baseman tried to throw home to prevent the run but threw it way too high.

The shell-shocked Elks could do nothing in retaliation this time as Kendall put the game away onetwo-three — retiring eight straight to close out the win.

Troy’s Alex Magoteaux makes a throw to first base Thursday.

“We didn’t come into this game looking at it like a monumental task,” Welker said “We were talking the other night, and we said ‘Why not?

Why can’t we win?’ We didn’t doubt ourselves, we didn’t look at records. We just took care of business.

We played the game like every pitch mattered, and we never lost focus. This was a complete team effort.”

“We just came together as a team and really

believe in each other a lot,” Cascaden said.

And even buried under the weight of his whole team,” Kendall was on Cloud Nine.

“We all just played the game of our lives,” he said.

“There’s just no better feeling.”

Palmer has 1st-round lead at Colonial FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Ryan Palmer was standing in the fairway on his last hole Thursday when his longtime caddie and fellow Colonial member issued a challenge.

James Edmondson, who won his third Colonial club championship last year, told Palmer that a birdie would match the caddie’s low round at Hogan’s Alley.

“What do you do when you get that thrown at you,” Palmer said.

Palmer hit his approach to 5 feet at the 388-yard ninth hole for an

8-under 62 that matched the lowest PGA Tour first round at Colonial. That put him a stroke ahead of John Rollins, who had his best round this season.

For all the rounds Palmer has played at Colonial, where he has been a full dues-paying member since 2010, he had never had such a low score. He generally plays there two or three times a week during the offseason and once or twice during weeks he’s not playing the PGA Tour.

“These old men here make me grind because I

have to give them so many shots. Maybe that helps,” Palmer said, smiling.

“Usually in a practice round, I don’t think I’ve shot below 65. You just don’t grind a lot. In this situation, you grind a little harder. You are able to focus more. When I’m out here with the guys, I mean half the time I might grab a few (beers) for the back nine.”

Graham DeLaet, wearing pants with a plaid design similar to the jacket Colonial winners get, matched Morgan Hoffmann, David Hearn

and John Peterson at 64.

Matt Kuchar, No. 13 in the world ranking and the highest-ranked player in the 136-man invitational field, was in a group of six players at 65.

Rollins, who like Palmer lives in nearby Colleyville, has playing privileges at Colonial like other PGA Tour players though he doesn’t play the 7,204-yard layout nearly as much as Palmer.

“He’s a pretty permanent fixture in the men’s group and everything that goes on out here,” Rollins said.

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 Head and Sam Ellis 7-6 (4), 6-2.

• Division I CENTERVILLE — Two years, two wins — with Thursday’s being a benchmark of sorts.

Troy sophomore Luke Oaks has had a solid start to his career.

Oaks defeated Miamisburg’s Rafael Hidalgo 6-2, 6-3 in the first round of the Division I district tournament Thursday at Centerville High School, his second first-round win in as many tries. But in the second round, he fell 6-2, 6-1 to Mason’s Miguel Cepeda, coming one win short of reaching the state tournament.

Oaks won as a member of a doubles team as a freshman, but Thursday’s win was his first at district in singles.

“Luke’s the first guy we’ve had win a district match in singles for a long time,” Troy coach Mark Goldner said. “That’s a real positive for him.”

Troy senior Chris Schmitt played his final match, falling to Trent Hayden of Beavercreek 6-1, 6-3.

“It’s just tough,” Goldner said of the district tournament. “St. Xavier is good, Sycamore is good … Mason

qualified all seven of its players here. It’s just another world.”

Tippecanoe senior Sam Bollinger — who was the sectional runner-up to Oaks — was defeated by Mason’s Jeremy Schneider 6-3, 6-1 in the first round.

“Sam didn’t know anything about the kid going into the match,” Tippecanoe coach Von Clendenen said.

“Mason is the No. 1 team in the state, and they qualified all seven at district.

“Sam was right in it the first set. He was hanging with him, but the kid was very strong. He was about 6foot-1 or 6-2. But Sam played his heart out. He was a senior who went out in style.”

A slow start doomed Tipp’s Jake Belcher and Michael Keller as the duo lost their match against Mason’s Mike Dellon and Wyatt Heinz 6-1, 6-3.

“They are a team that starts slow. They did it at sectionals, and they did it in this match,” Tippecanoe coach Von Clendenen said. “I think they went down 4-0 before they got their first point. Doubles is all about momentum, and once they got going in the second game, they couldn’t stop it.

“They’ll be back next year, so they’ll get another shot at it.”

■ High School Football

Zimmer ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 runner-up TrotwoodMadison.

“He’s got great versatility,” Brewer said of Zimmer. “He’ll play safety for them, but he could play anywhere they wanted him to — that’s pretty much what he did for us.

We did everything we could to get the ball into his hands, because every time it was, the kid made plays.”

Zimmer said the coaching staff at Ashland already has talked to him about his versatility.

“They like my versatility, my athleticism and my nose for the ball,” the 6foot-2, 195-pound Zimmer said. “They like my tackling. They are big on recruiting good tacklers.

They run both a 3-4 and 4-

3 defenses and they told me they could bring me up into the box to help stop the run or they could roll me back and have me cover deep.”

Zimmer — who also is a part of the Trojans’ stateranked 4x100 track and field relay team — certainly comes from good football stock. His father, Doug, earned All-America honors as a defensive back at the University of Dayton.

“We haven’t talked a whole lot about it — but he’s told me it’s going to be a big step up, going from high school to college football,” Zimmer said.

Brewer has no doubt Zimmer is ready to take that step.

“He’s going to be a good one for them,” Brewer said.

“I have no doubts.”

Andretti heads into Indy trying to break curse INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Shortly before he left home for Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Marco Andretti watched a documentary that showed his grandfather, Mario, at the famed track.

“It was him and (radio announcer) Paul Page, they were walking down the start finish line and he said, ‘You know, I always said I hated this place,’” Andretti recalled. “And

then he paused for a while and said, ‘I lied.’ That pretty much tells it all. We’ve been through a lot here, but we live for it.”

Five different drivers from the famed Andretti clan have combined to make 80 starts in the Indianapolis 500. Mario Andretti’s 1969 victory remains the lone win and the family has been answering questions about the “Andretti Curse” for

■ National Hockey League

decades now.

It was Michael Andretti who had it the worst, leading 431 laps in 16 career starts and never getting a chance to drink the celebratory milk.

But it’s not been any easier for Marco, the thirdgeneration driver who has suffered his own share of heartache at Indy. He was passed by Sam Hornish Jr. on the final straightaway in 2006, when he raced as

a 19-year-old rookie with his father in the field.

Hornish won the race, and Marco and Michael finished second and third.

He believes he gave away the 2008 race, which was won by Scott Dixon while Andretti finished third. There was another third-place finish in 2010, and then he went into last year’s race convinced it was “mine to lose.”

“And we lost it,” he said

Thursday with a shrug.

Upset with his car all day, even as he led a racehigh 59 laps, an ill-timed caution shuffled Andretti back into the field after a pit stop. He was struggling with his handling, and crashed out of the race 13 laps from the finish.

So the curse has been passed down, even as Andretti does his best to put his own positive spin on the suffering.

“I believe that as a family, having one win in 70something tries, that’s frustrating as competitors,” he said. “But I think we’re blessed as a family because we are all healthy.

And I am still young, knock on wood, and I’ll have a lot of shots at this race. So I’m blessed because we are able to compete. I love this place and it’s an honor to be able to compete.”

Game 1 in the books Heat, Pacers say next game should be even better

Boston Bruins’ Johnny Boychuk (55) checks New York Rangers’ Derek Dorsett (15) during the overtime period in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals in the NHL hockey Stanley Cup playoffs on Thursday in New York. The Rangers won the game 4-3.

Kreider keeps Rangers alive with OT goal NEW YORK (AP) — Chris Kreider steered in a pass from Rick Nash 7:03 into overtime, and the New York Rangers stayed alive in the Stanley Cup playoffs with a 4-3 victory over the Boston Bruins on Thursday night.

New York, which erased 2-0 and 3-2 deficits in the critical Game 4 matchup in the Eastern Conference semifinals, still trails the series 3-1. The Rangers will need to win again on Saturday in Boston to force a Game 6 back in Madison Square Garden.

The Rangers, who were outshot 40-32, won a faceoff deep in their zone, and Nash rushed the puck up ice. He stopped above the right circle and fed a hard pass in front that Kreider skated into and tipped past goalie Tuukka Rask for his first goal of the playoffs.

Kreider, who made his NHL debut in last year’s playoffs, has six career postseason goals in just 25 games.

“I was lucky enough to play with Rick,” the 22year-old Kreider said.

“Just trying to go hard to the net. He’s such a talented player. He was able to find my tape, and I tried to put it on net.”

Derek Stepan and

Brian Boyle scored tying goals in the third period for the Rangers, who even found success on the power play. Carl Hagelin netted New York’s first goal of the game in the second period.

Henrik Lundqvist made 37 saves for the Rangers.

Boston got secondperiod goals from Nathan Horton and rising star Torey Krug to build an early lead. Tyler Seguin’s first of the playoffs put the Bruins back on top 32 in the third.

Only three teams have lost a series after leading 3-0, but the Bruins are the most recent to do it in 2010 against Philadelphia.

“It’s a resilient group,” Kreider said. “The tone of the dressing room was the same as positive and upbeat. We’re excited to play more hockey.”

Red Wings 2, Blackhawks 0 DETROIT — Jakub Kindl scored on a power play in the second period, Daniel Cleary had an empty-net goal and Jimmy Howard made 27 saves to help the Detroit Red Wings hold on for a 2-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night, putting the NHL’s best team during the regular season on the brink of elimination.

M-U’s Klosterman, boys 4x800 qualify for D-II regional Staff Reports

ST. PARIS

Trevor Klosterman and the Milton-Union boys 4x800 team punched their tickets to the Division II regional meet Thursday at Graham High School.

Klosterman placed second in the finals of the long jump with a leap of 18-7.25, while the 4x800 team of Kyle Swartz, Skyler Deeter, Connor Lunsford and Zach Pricer earned a spot at regional with the fourth best time in the field (8:37.35).

And several other Milton-Union athletes advanced to Saturday’s finals.

For the girls, Kinsey Douglas (13.76 seconds) and Rachel Paden (13.79) both qualified for the finals in the 100. Haily Bose qualified for the finals of the 800 (2:53.87).

The 4x400 relay team of Swartz, Deeter, Pricer and Joe Thoele qualified for the finals with the fifth best time (3:40.33) on Thursday.

Colt Hildebrand reached the finals of the 110 hurdles (17.01 seconds). Lunsford also made the finals of the 800 (2:11.69).

The Division II district meet resumes Saturday at 2 p.m.

MIAMI (AP) — Losing a game at the final buzzer, no less than a playoff game on the road against the reigning NBA champion Miami Heat, would seem to have potential to demoralize the Indiana Pacers.

Or not.

“Our belief,” Pacers coach Frank Vogel said Thursday, “has strengthened.”

Barely 12 hours after LeBron James scored on a drive as time expired in overtime to give the Heat a win in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals, the Pacers were more steeled than shaken when they arrived for practice at the arena where it all went awry in the series opener.

The second-guessing of Vogel’s decision to keep Roy Hibbert on the bench for the final play was still going strong, but the Pacers insisted that they’re mentally fine.

A short memory would likely help Indiana now, especially with Game 2 of the series back in Miami on Friday night.

“Very encouraged,” Vogel said. “Our belief in our ability to beat this team has strengthened after Game 1. Our familiarity in the playoffs, in the playoff series grows with each day, grows with each game, and there’s a lot of things we can definitely do better.”

And on that point, the Pacers and Heat are in total agreement.

For as intense and down-to-the-wire as Game 1 was, with 35 ties or lead changes over 53 scintillating minutes where neither team ever held more than a seven-point lead, both the Pacers and Heat are expecting Friday to simply be better.

Matching the level of drama may be difficult, but the actual level of play, they think, will improve. It’s easy to see how that could be the case, after a seriesopener where both teams were turnover-happy 20 for Indiana, 21 for Miami, hardly the norm for either side and play was at times choppy thanks in part to 58 personal fouls being called.

“We’re going to play a lot better,” Heat center Chris Bosh said after film and oncourt work Thursday.

“We’ve come to expect that of ourselves. We know that yesterday wasn’t the cham-

We’re going to have to do a much better job on defense and on offense to take care of the basketball, do a better job on the boards, do a better job of containing some of their actions.”

For all the sensational statistical story lines that were born from Game 1 James’ 30-point, 10rebound, 10-assist effort, Chris Andersen making all seven of his shots, David West and Hibbert combining for 20 field goals the boxscore alone points to plenty of areas where things could get better for both sides on Friday night.

In Miami’s case, key reserves Ray Allen, Shane

Battier and Norris Cole combined to shoot 2 for 16.

In Indiana’s case, George who finished with 27 points only had two at halftime, and Lance Stephenson shot just 2 for 10.

“We can get better,” James said. “I think both teams didn’t play to the level that they’re capable of playing at in Game 1. But both teams had a chance to win.”

The Heat usually have more than a chance to win.

They’re now 46-3 in their last 49 games, and 28-0 when Andersen grabs at least four rebounds. Still, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra was pleading for more.

“We have to push to get to another level,” Spoelstra said. “It was a very competitive game. Both teams

were laying it all out there but we’re trying to push to another level that we think we can get to and we’ll need to in this series.

“We have to continue to push forward and evolve. …

We have to play better in this series. In order to be able to win this series, we have to get to another level,” Spoelstra said.

Another lineup not another level might have done wonders for the Pacers at the end of Game 1.

Vogel’s decision to not have a 7-foot-2 shot-blocking machine like Hibbert in the game for the final play was still creating plenty of buzz on Thursday, though the second-guessing seemed to not be raining on Indiana’s collective mood.

Hamlin takes Coca-Cola 600 pole CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Denny Hamlin isn’t ready to say he’s back, even after winning the pole for the Coca-Cola 600 with a record-setting qualifying lap Thursday night.

He said it would take a win Sunday night or at another Sprint Cup race later in the season before he’s willing to make that declaration.

But Hamlin showed he continues to be on the mend after being sidelined for four races with a compression fracture in his lower spine following a March 24 crash involving former teammate Joey Logano.

Two weeks after finishing second at the Darlington 500, Hamlin broke the track record with a lap of 195.624 mph to capture his first pole at

Charlotte Motor Speedway.

“Getting the big trophy on Sunday that is the validation that you are truly back,” Hamlin said.

Hamlin has a far bigger goal in mind anyway.

He and Jimmie Johnson are the only two drivers to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup every year they’ve been eligible.

He wants to keep it that way and then some.

“It’s going to take wins and consistency throughout the next several months to put ourselves in position to have a chance at a championship,” Hamlin said. “That is what we’re here for. But these small victories give me confidence I’m still capable and still able to do the job at 100 percent like I should be.”

Four Toyotas will start

in the top five. Hamlin will start alongside Kurt Busch on the front row, followed

by Matt Kenseth, Mark Martin and Clint Bowyer.

Kasey Kahne will start sixth, Greg Biffle seventh, Kyle Busch eighth, Jamie McMurray ninth and Ryan Newman rounds out the top 10.

Johnson, who won his record fourth Sprint AllStar race on Saturday, will start 12th, one spot behind Dale Earnhardt Jr. Danica Patrick, who has struggled on the 1.5-mile tracks this season, starts 24th.

It looked like Kurt Busch would take the pole.

But when Hamlin heard Busch say in an interview he missed his marks on turns three and four, he decided to step away from

his normally conservative qualifying nature and go for the top spot.

“He made a mistake and I capitalized on it,” Hamlin said.

Hamlin did everything he could to push the envelope.

“Normally I wouldn’t commit myself to running a lap like that it’s too dangerous,” Hamlin said. “But we have a mission ahead.”

Hamlin, who has never won a Sprint Cup race at CMS, was one of eight drivers to top the previous track record of 193.708 mph set last October by Biffle.

Hamlin said he was sore for about two days after Darlington, but said he’s feeling much better now.

“Everything is good,” Hamlin said.
