Laura man guilty of sex charges

Strike comes despite pledge of transparency The drone attack that killed a Pakistan Taliban deputy leader this week was a clear signal that despite President Barack Obama’s promise last week of new transparency in the drone program, the CIA will still launch secret attacks on militants in north Pakistan and the administration will not have to tell anyone about it.

Effort to recall Arpaio fails A campaign to force a recall election against the polarizing sheriff of metropolitan Phoenix failed on Thursday after recall organizers said they couldn’t collect enough voter signatures to bring the lawman to the ballot again. Organizers of the recall effort against Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio needed to turn in more than 335,000 valid voter signatures by 5 p.m. Thursday to force a recall election. See Page 11.

Let’s show our hospitality this summer I don’t know why Southerners were crowned kings of hospitality — us Midwesterners are pretty darn friendly, too, if you ask me. Last weekend I traveled with my good friend Swanky to the Windy City – good ol’ Chicago. I’ve been to California, New York City, Boston and a few other major U.S. cities, but there’s something so warm and welcoming about Chi-town.

According to Cortney Loyd, the group likes to come to Fulton Farms every year to pick strawberries, and then they make another trip in the fall for the produce.

Farm experiencing a ‘berry’ good season BY NATALIE KNOTH Staff Writer nknoth@civitasmedia.com hanks to a moderately warm spring, Fulton Farms’ visitors are enjoying the sweet success of a plentiful, timely strawberry crop. Joyce Fulton, owner of Fulton Farms with her husband Bill, said she couldn’t be more pleased with the family farm’s strawberry crop. “It’s so much better than last year in terms of mental spirit,” Fulton said. “We’ve got a smile on our faces.” Berries were ripe about a month early in 2012, recalled field manager John Akins, meaning the best of the batch had already had their time in the sun before the festival. The season can last about four to six weeks. “At the beginning of the season, they’re biggest, and as the season goes on, they get smaller. Most people don’t want to pick the smaller berries,” Akins said. The ideal weather conditions are about 75 to 80 degrees during the day and around 50 degrees at night, he estimated. “If it gets really warm and stays really warm, they ripen really quickly,” he said. “If it’s a hot season, it’ll be short. But if it’s warm days and cool nights, we could have about six

A Miami County common pleas court judge found a Laura man guilty this week on 12 counts of pandering child pornography. Lee D. Hodge, 24, will enter a courtroom next on July 22 for his sentencing hearing on the dozen child porn felony convictions. Until then, he was released on his own recognizance. Hodge was found guilty on 12 counts of pandering sexually-oriented material involving a minor, which are all felonies that carry possible prison time for e a c h charge a n d carry s e x offender regis- HODGE tration for a period of 15 years, possibly longer. Authorities say Hodge accessed, downloaded and stored the pornography on a home computer where he used an Internet file-sharing website to download the pictures. Law enforcement began investigating the case after they noticed suspicious Internet activity originating from Hodge’s residence, according to a sheriff’s report. A Miami County grand jury indicted Hodge on the sexual felonies following an Oct. 31 search warrant conducted at his residence that stemmed from “large volumes of child pornography” that was being downloaded from a computer IP address traced back to Hodge, according to the search warrant. Sheriff ’s reports indicate Hodge, arraigned on the charges in February, possessed “thousands of child pornography files” on his personal computer equipment and other media storage devices that were confiscated and forensically examined by authorities.

• Cover songs: Homage or irksome marketing ploy? LOS ANGELES (AP) — There are about 600 versions of Adele’s Oscarwinning song “Skyfall” on the Spotify subscription music service. Not one of them features Adele. Adele’s label, XL Recordings, keeps her music off of all-you-can-listen subscription plans until download sales peter out. In the meantime, copycat artists fill the void, racking up royalty revenue, often before customers realize they’ve been listening to someone else. Thousands of cover songs crowd digital music services such as Spotify and Rhapsody and listeners are getting annoyed. The phenomenon threatens the growth of these services which have millions of paying subscribers and could hold back the tepid recovery of a music industry still reeling from the decline of the CD. — Staff and wire reports

Tornadoes touch down in Oklahoma and Arkansas OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — At least two tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma and another hit Arkansas on Thursday as a powerful storm system moved through the middle of the country. At least nine injuries were reported. The National Weather Service reported two tornadoes on the ground near Perkins and Ripley in north central Oklahoma and another west of Oden, Ark. Seven people were injured in tornadoes in Arkansas. Two other injuries were attributed to lightning strikes in that state. Lightning was also believed to have started a fire at a residential complex in northwestern Indiana. Arkansas Emergency Management spokesman Tommy Jackson said first responders were having trouble reaching a destroyed home where one person was hurt in a tornado because a number of trees were blocking the road. Montgomery County sheriff ’s

spokeswoman Brandy Wingfield said there was property damage, including downed power lines, in the area. Perkins Emergency Management Director Travis Majors said there were no injuries or damage there. Ripley, about 10 miles east of Perkins, did not seem to have significant damage. The Payne County emergency management director did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment. Thursday’s tornadoes were much less dangerous than the EF5 storm that struck Moore, Okla., on May 20 and killed 24 along its 17-mile path. The U.S. averages more than 1,200 tornadoes a year, but topof-the-scale storms like the one in Moore with winds over 200 mph happen only about once per year. The tornado last week was the nation’s first EF5 since 2011. Some strong winds blew through Moore, in suburban Oklahoma City, on Thursday,

but the weather didn’t cause significant problems for crews cleaning up from last week’s tornado. This spring’s tornado season got a late start, with unusually cool weather keeping funnel clouds at bay until mid-May. The season usually starts in March and then ramps up for the next couple of months. The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla., warned that there was a moderate risk of severe weather Thursday over much of eastern and central Oklahoma, with storms also possible in the rest of the central United States from Texas to Wisconsin. Flooding is also a concern in parts of Missouri, Iowa and Illinois through Sunday. In addition to tornadoes, the storms were bringing rain and hail. “Right now we’ve been getting a few thunderstorms, but they’re very severe supercell thunderstorms,” said Michael Scotten, a meteorologist with

the National Weather Services. “The whole storm rotates, and they produce on occasion some tornadoes and heavy hail.” The severe weather threat led organizers to postpone the start of the outdoor Wakarusa Music Festival near Ozark, Ark., which will feature Widespread Panic, The Black Crowes and the rapper Snoop Lion (formerly known as Snoop Dogg). An estimated 15,000 sought shelter from lightning and wind Thursday, according to the Times Record newspaper of Fort Smith, Ark. Of the 60 EF5 tornadoes since 1950, Oklahoma and Alabama have been struck the most, seven times each. More than half of these top-of-thescale twisters have occurred in just five states: Alabama, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Fewer than 1 percent of all U.S. tornadoes are this violent only about 10 a year, according to research meteorologist Harold Brooks at the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman.

2013 TROY STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL SCHEDULE the city’s streets, Mayor Mike Beamish, 2013 Strawberry Festival Queen Rachel Zelnick and Strawberry Festival Chairman Jon Dankworth and other festival organizers will select their personal favorites in the staging area. “The mayor’s choice is always a big deal – it’s always fun to see who catches his eye,” Dorsten said. The parade will be held rain or shine beginning at 9 a.m. and is expected to last more than two hours, Dorsten said. LIVE ACTION Can’t make it to the parade? Or, will you be in the parade and want to see your child or yourself on television? Then set the DVR to Channel 5 for live coverage of this year’s parade. Troy Public Access will provide live Strawberry Festival coverage, not only during the parade, but for tonight’s downtown festivities and bed races, and, tentatively, Saturday night’s concert with McGuffey Lane. Don’t have cable television? That is still not a problem, according to Troy Channel 5’s chief videographer Joe Weaver.

Hosts for the parade coverage on Saturday will be Troy Foundation’s Julie Conner and 2012 Strawberry Festival chairwoman Corie Schweser.

The live coverage will be viewed by local public access channels in the area and will later appear amongst the channel’s programming. “We are really excited and grateful we can do this for everybody,” Weaver said. Live coverage begins tonight at 6 p.m. for the

children’s parade and bed races. The 2013 Strawberry Festival Parade coverage is set to begin at 8:45 a.m. Saturday. Weaver said concert coverage is tentatively set at 7:45 p.m. Saturday evening if permission by the production company would allow the station to provide live coverage. Weaver said the concert would still be taped and be able to view later date. The station can be viewed on Time Warner Cable Channel 5.

PERSPECTIVE

KEVIN J. ELLIOTT Columbus I found out early the morning of Feb. 4 that Mumford & Sons had chosen my hometown of Troy as one of the stops on their “Gentleman of the Road Tour.” I was privy to this information because these days I write quite a bit about music and the band's enthusiastic publicist was blowing up my email with the information before it leaked to the world the next day. Don't worry, I’m not bragging. My job as a freelance journalist in Columbus, where I’ve settled since college, is not all that glamorous and it rarely pays any bills (save a couple of drinks and cheeseburgers on the weekend). But I do think it gives me some insight on just how intriguing this is for Troy. Yeah, I don't live in Troy anymore. But I visit at least once a month and I would say without a second thought that my soul’s anchor is still lodged at the corner of Peters Avenue and Archer Road — or on South Walnut Street or Ridge Avenue. I got excited when the Adams Street bridge re-opened, made my dad take me to see the shiny new gym at the high school over Christmas and still am in disbelief we are now home to a Marion's Piazza (though I'd still take an Ording's deluxe any day of the week).

I loathe their Dust Bowl aesthetics and can't find a worthwhile melody in any of their "hits." How this softie, milquetoast ilk connected with our youth is beyond me. A night with Styx at the Strawberry Festival bodes better ... but I digress, and admit that this move on Mumford & Sons behalf is honorable. They aren't playing up a hokum — they're British, have won Grammys and date models and film stars. This is sincere. It's the only instance I can remember when any sort of youthdriven counterculture descending upon our city — that is unless you count my scant memory of bikers and punks occupying the Square after the cops shot that teen back in the ‘80s, or what may or may not have occurred when Elvis played Hobart Arena. There are no such things as hippies now, or at least ones who travel as unwashed masses to follow their favorite jam band. If those people still exist, they likely aren't fans of Mumford and Sons and they won't be camping out in our city park or Riverside Cemetery. I imagine the average Mumford fan is well-educated, clean and proper — and won't give the cops too much of a hard time. They're not looking for a revolution, so no riot gear needed. There will be a longer line at the olive oil shop than at our multitude of drive-thrus. Yes, there will be drinking in public and (gasp) a fog of marijuana smoke obscuring views of the courthouse, but for at least a weekend, you'll need to let it ride (I'm looking at you, Troy Police Department). Remember, you once were young. What will occur over the weekend of Aug. 30 is good for Troy, it's good for Mumford & Sons and it's good for K's Hamburger shop. It's the circle of life. Embrace it. Turn your Southwest Historical District Home into a make-shift bed and breakfast. Start an artisanal popsicle truck in Prouty Plaza. Do something. Just don't discourage. I can't think of a better opportunity for Troy to display its "civic pride, city-wide." And to those like Mr. James Marshall who believe this concert will "be the end of Troy as we know it," it is your intolerant minds that stifle progress in small towns like Troy. Don't blame it on the youth. I applaud the city council and community members who have made this a reality — and the city of Troy helps in making this weekend a success.

DOONESBURY

Let’s show visitors our hospitality this summer I don’t know why Southerners were crowned kings of hospitality — us Midwesterners are pretty darn friendly, too, if you ask me. Last weekend I traveled with my good friend Swanky to the Windy City – good ol’ Chicago. I’ve been to California, New York City, Boston and a few other major U.S. cities, but there’s something so warm and welcoming about Chi-town. Chicago is just chill. Not snobby, arrogant or uppity – just chill. Anyway, Chicago is by far one of my favorite cities to visit because of the huge welcome mat on the Magnificent Mile and beyond. (This column is not being subsidized by the Chicago Travel and Tourism Board. All glowing remarks are the writer’s own.) Swanky had invited me to tag along with him to the big city for his cousin Amanda’s wedding and for his birthday. It was an adventure from the beginning seeing as the country boy doesn’t travel much beyond the truck pulling circuits. As a country bumpkin myself, I feel like I stand out when I rub elbows with sophisticated city folks. Heck, once we arrived at our

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist hotel in downtown Chicago by Trump Towers, two women approached Swanky’s brother Dustin and I on the street begging for directions with their maps unfolded. Uh, awesome! Trust me, we were both excited to be mistaken for natives of Chicago. We quickly assured them that we were straight from the fields of Miami County, Ohio, and ushered them to the hotel’s valet, who helped them find their way. Before we headed out to take in a slice of Chicago-style pizza with the wedding party, we met Swanky’s family members in the lounge across from our hotel room. And folks, I have never met a group of nicer people.

When you are immediately greeted by a bubbly blonde aunt with a big hug — aptly announcing she is one of those “huggers” — I couldn’t help but feel immediately at home amongst strangers. Truth be known, I’m a hugger, too. While I met countless cousins, friends and others, some who are local to Miami County and some were scattered about the country, I couldn’t help but think that the Midwest does hospitality best. While we may not hand you a glass of sweet tea, we’ll certainly grab you a Coke from the fridge and offer to chauffeur you to the buffet line to check out the excellent selection of hors d’oeuvres (Side note: fried macaroni and cheese should be illegal, it’s so good.) This weekend, our city plays host to our annual Strawberry Festival. It’s our town’s unofficial homecoming as family and friends come back for the doughnuts, the parade and to see how the festival’s traditions have changed over the years. The city of Troy will play host for many large gatherings this

summer. The Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure will soon be here in a matter of weeks and of course, the Gentlemen of the Road Tour will be here on Labor Day weekend. While this music festival and its thousands of out of town guests may not be as welcome to all Trojans, let’s face it: they are coming. It is happening whether we like it or not. Let’s practice our Trojan hospitality this weekend and keep it fresh in our minds throughout all of our summer events. If the thousands of visitors see how much we love and care about our city and how well the Midwest treats its guests, we can feel as we did — respected and appreciated — just like a warm hug from a bubbly aunt. Because when you are an out of town guest, in a strange place, among unfamiliar people, receiving a warm welcome is truly one of the best feelings one can experience. Cheers!

OBITUARIES

ELEANOR JEAN WILHELM BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Eleanor Jean Wilhelm of Bloomington, Ind., a resident of Golden Living Center, passed away peacefully on Monday, May 27, 2013, at the Bloomington Hospice House at the age of 87. Eleanor was born in Casstown, Ohio, on April 6, 1926, into the home of Harry C. and Ellen La Tourrette. She graduated from Lost Creek Township School and Wooster College. Upon graduation, she moved to Bloomington to study sciences at Indiana University. She worked as a lab assistant in the Bacteriology Department for Dr. Mc Clung. She was employed by MCCSC as both a substitute teacher and a Title I AP reading assistant at Clear Indian film director Gautam Ghosh speaks as he arrives to pay homage to late director Rituparno Ghosh in Creek and Broadview Kolkata, India, Thursday.

Acclaimed Indian film director Rituparno Ghosh dies at age 49 ern city of Kolkata. Ghosh directed about 20 feature films overall, earning critical acclaim at international film festivals including in Locarno, Switzerland, and in London. His 2007 creation, “The Last Lear,” was in English and centered on a retired actor who is persuaded to return to cinema to reprise the lead role in a production of Shakespeare’s “King Lear.” Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan starred in the film that premiered at the Toronto Film Festival.

Bachchan tweeted remembrances of Ghosh early Friday, calling him a “brilliant director” and a “sensitive artistic mind.” Shekhar Kapur, director of the 1998 Academy Award-winning period film “Elizabeth,” tweeted that he was “shocked by the passing of Rituparno Ghosh.” He described Ghosh as a “hugely creative explorer on film.” Indian character actress Kiran Kher said Ghosh was a marvelous director and that his death was a “huge loss for Indian cinema.”

Outspoken Rev. Greeley dies CHICAGO (AP) — The Rev. Andrew Greeley was, it seems, always writing. At home on a typewriter, later on a computer, then on a plane with a laptop and even in his car dictating into a tape recorder as he drove. By the time he finished, the outspoken Roman Catholic priest and Chicago newspaper columnist had written more than 100 non-fiction books and some 50 novels, many international mystery thrillers that routinely climbed onto best-seller lists. They were translated into a dozen languages. And he also often spoke out about various religious topics, even criticizing the hierarchy of his own church over the child sex abuse scandal. “His mind was never idle,” said Tom Smith, Greeley’s longtime colleague at the University of Chicago, where Greeley spent years as a sociology researcher. “He was the kind of person who could be writing a column and get an idea for a novel, have a conversation he would use in a novel, use his novels to inspire his academic work and his academic work to inspire his novels,” Smith said Thursday, shortly after learning about his friend’s death. On Wednesday night, nearly five years after he suffered a brain injury during a fall that put him in a coma for weeks, Greeley died in his home in downtown Chicago. He was 85. “He served the church all those years with a prophetic voice and with unfailing dedication,” his niece, Elizabeth Durkin, said in a statement. She also praised Greeley as a loving uncle who “tremendously

He was 85. enriched” his family’s lives. Greeley, who was ordained in 1954, wrote a weekly column that appeared in the Chicago Sun-Times and other newspapers on the relationship between religion and politics. An internationally recognized scholar, he also was a contributor to the New York Times, National Catholic Reporter and other publications. His final book, “Chicago Catholics and the Struggles Within Their Church,” was published in 2010, exploring a topic that he had written about for years, sometimes giving him a reputation for generating controversy in the church. “Sometimes I think that we as priests and bishops have done every-

thing we possibly could to drive away the laity during the last 20 years,” Greeley wrote in his book “Catholic Contributions: Sociology and Policy,” published in 1987. Greeley also had said that neither the church nor the government was willing to do much about priests who sexually abused children, telling a lay Catholic group in 1992: “The sexually maladjusted priest has been able to abuse the children of the laity and thus far be reasonably secure from punishment.” And during a news conference in 1987, Greeley said that if he were heading a church fundraising campaign, he would admit to church members that “we’ve really goofed. People are resentful over

what they take to be the insensitivity of church leaders particularly on matters relating to sex.” Greeley was born in the Chicago suburb of Oak Park in 1928, and he spent much of his life close to home. He worked as a sociology professor at the University of Arizona and a researcher at the University of Chicago’s NORC, formerly known as the National Opinion Research Center. He earned post-graduate degrees from the University of Chicago in the 1960s. The priest became often quoted and interviewed in the media. In a biography published on his website, Greeley described himself as having “unflinchingly urged his beloved church to become more responsive to evolving concerns of Catholics everywhere.” The same biography noted he was a Chicago sports fan and cheered for the Bulls, Bears and the Cubs, “while praying for them to improve.” Former President Bill Clinton listed Greeley among those who had stayed the night at the White House. Clinton’s deputy White House press secretary said Greeley’s novel “Irish Lace” was one of the books the then-president had on a vacation reading list in July 1997. In 1986, Greeley offered the Archdiocese of Chicago $1 million to create a foundation to help inner-city Catholic students. The archdiocese refused the money but wouldn’t say why. So, Greeley set up his own Catholic Inner-City School Fund to distribute money to the 80 Catholic schools in the city with student enrollments that are more than 50 percent black or Hispanic.

Former Giants player, coach Bill Austin dies EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Bill Austin, a Pro Bowl lineman for the New York Giants and a member of their 1956 NFL championship team, has died at his home in Las Vegas. He was 84. Austin’s playing and coaching career included stints with eight teams and spanned almost four decades. A 13th-round draft choice for the Giants in 1949 out of Oregon State, Austin played for the team from 1949-

50 and from 1953-57. He played in 75 games in his seven seasons and was a Pro Bowl guard in 1954. In 1958, he started his coaching career at Wichita State. The following year, he became the Green Bay Packers’ offensive line coach under Vince Lombardi. He held that position for six years before becoming the Los Angeles Rams’ line coach in 1966. Austin was the head coach in Pittsburgh from 1966-68. The Steelers

were 11-28-3 during his tenure and he was replaced in 1969 by Chuck Noll, a Hall of Fame coach who held the job for 23 years and won four Super Bowls. In 1969, Austin joined Lombardi’s Washington Redskins as the offensive line coach. When Lombardi was diagnosed with cancer and had to relinquish his duties, Austin was promoted to head coach. The Redskins were 6-8 in 1970 and Austin was let go following the season.

‘The East’ is satisfying eco-terrorism film LOS ANGELES (AP) — A social-conscience espionage film that has actually thought about its “ecoterrorism” themes beyond figuring out how to mine them for suspense, “The East” sends a straightlaced overachiever undercover with a violent ecovigilante group. Zal Batmanglij and cowriter/star Brit Marling deliver a consistently tense, morally alert story that has plenty of boxoffice appeal. Marling plays Sarah, a former FBI agent now seeking her fortune in the private sector. Her first assignment for Hiller/Brood, a secretive company providing undercover risk assessments for multinational corporations, requires her to infiltrate a new anarchist group, The East, which has targeted polluters in a series of let-the-punishment-fit-the-crime “jams.” Telling her patient boyfriend (Jason Ritter) she’s off to Dubai for business, Sarah actually hits the streets not far from her Washington, D.C. home getting grubby with freegans and hobos while watching for someone whose political rants sound likely to produce action. After an enjoyable bit of improvised role-playing, she winds up at the burned-up mansion The East calls home. The group looks a bit

Members like Doc (Toby Kebbell) and Izzy (Ellen Page) offer villains from their own pasts a reckless drug manufacturer, say, whose wares injured loved ones and together they decide how to get close enough to do that company well-publicized harm. The tidy paybacks will appeal to many viewers: Who hasn’t thought execs who knowingly pollute waterways should have to bathe in their own slurry?

But putting a secret agent in the middle of their execution allows us to live the fantasy and question its justice simultaneously. Sarah will inevitably be changed by this group. But will it be in the expected, manageable way as her shark-like boss (Patricia Clarkson) warns, some sympathy is inevitable when you devote every waking moment to earning someone’s trust or will she go rogue? The actors bringing this band of anarchists to life project enough wounded, uncertain self-righteousness to distance them from the generic zealots

more often seen in this kind of tale, and Marling, working behind a couple of layers of role-playing, keeps audiences guessing about what Sarah actually believes. Batmanglij balances emotional tension with practical danger nicely, a must in a story whose activist protagonists can make no distinction between the personal and the political. “The East,” a Fox Searchlight release, is rated PG-13 for thematic elements, violence, some disturbing images, sexual content and partial nudity. Running time: 116 minutes.

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 highestgrossing 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 co-writer 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” fan-boys 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 big-screen 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-turnedfilmmaker, 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. PG-13 for thematic elements involving sexuality, brief strong language and smoking. 108 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Reports state that Cincinnati Zoo not making any money

Greenhouse NOW OPEN 850 S. Market St., Troy 339-9212 40039180

AP

This May 5 file photo shows Ohio State president E. Gordon Gee gesturing as he speaks during the Ohio State University spring commencement in Columbus. Gee told a university committee last December that Notre Dame wasn’t invited to join the Big Ten because they’re not good partners while also jokingly saying that “those (darn) Catholics” can’t be trusted. nation's pre-eminent Roman Catholic university. Ohio State, with about 56,000 students on its main campus, is among the country's biggest universities, and it has its own long football tradition. A message was left with Smith, the Ohio State athletic director who attended the December meeting and who also is a 1977 Notre Dame graduate. NCAA President Mark Emmert declined to comment, saying he hadn't heard the remarks. Ohio State's Athletic Council meets monthly during the fall, winter and spring and makes recommendations on athletic policy including ticket prices. December's meeting was at Ohio Stadium. Gee was introduced by Athletic Council then-chairman Charlie Wilson, and Gee's name and introduction are included in written minutes of the meeting. His comments drew laughter, at times loud, occasionally nervous, but no rebukes, according to the audio. Ohio State trustees learned of Gee's "offensive statements" in January, met with the president at length and created the remediation plan for Gee to "address his behavior," board president Robert Schottenstein said in a statement. Comments by a university leader about "particular groups, classes of people or individuals are wholly unacceptable," Schottenstein said. "These statements were inappropriate, were not presidential in nature and do not comport with the core values of the university." Gee has gotten in trouble before for offhand remarks, most recently during a memorabilia-for-cash and tattoos scandal under football coach Jim Tressel's watch. Gee was asked in March 2011 whether he had considered firing Tressel. He responded: "No, are you kidding? Let me just be very clear: I'm just hopeful the coach doesn't dismiss me." Tressel stepped down three months later. In November 2010, Gee boasted that Ohio State's football schedule didn't include teams on par with the "Little Sisters of the Poor." An apologetic Gee later sent a personal check to the real Little Sisters of the Poor in northwest Ohio and followed up with a visit to the nuns months later. Last year, Gee apologized for comparing the

problem of coordinating the school's many divisions to the Polish army, a remark that a Polish-American group called bigoted and ignorant. In 1992, in a moment of frustration over higher-education funding, Gee told a student newspaper reporter, "the governor's a damn dummy." Then-Gov. George Voinovich laughed it off, and the two became allies. Gee was named the country's best college president in 2010 by Time magazine, and he has one of the highest-profile resumes of any college leader in recent history. He has held the top job at West Virginia University, the University of Colorado, Brown University and Vanderbilt University. He was Ohio State president from 1990 to 1997 and returned in 2007. Gee earns about $1.9 million annually in base pay, deferred and performance compensation and retirement benefits. He is a prolific fundraiser and is leading a $2.5 billion campaign at Ohio State. He is omnipresent on campus, attending everything from faculty awards events to dormitory pizza parties. He is known for his bow ties — he has hundreds — and his horn-rimmed glasses. During his comments to the Athletic Council, Gee also questioned the academic integrity of schools in the Southeastern Conference and the University of Louisville. The top goal of Big Ten presidents is to "make certain that we have institutions of like-minded academic integrity," Gee said. "So you won't see us adding Louisville," which is also joining the ACC. After a pause followed by laughter from the audience, Gee added that the Big Ten wouldn't add the University of Kentucky, either. Louisville spokesman Mark Hebert said the university accepted Gee's apology but planned to forward Gee information about the

upward trajectory of its academic and athletic programs. Kentucky president Eli Capilouto declined to comment. During the meeting, Gee also said he thought it was a mistake not to include Missouri and Kansas in earlier Big Ten expansion plans. Missouri has since joined the SEC. "You tell the SEC when they can learn to read and write, then they can figure out what we're doing," Gee said when asked by a questioner how to respond to SEC fans who say the Big Ten can't count because it now has 14 members. Gee noted he was chairman of the SEC during his time as Vanderbilt University chancellor. He also told the audience that speculation about the SEC "remains right here," according to the recording. Gee took a swipe at Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany, one of the most powerful leaders in college athletics, when he answered a question about preserving Ohio State's financial interests in light of Big Ten revenue-sharing plans. "No one admires Jim Delany more than I do. I chaired the committee that brought him here," Gee said. "Jim is very aggressive, and we need to make certain he keeps his hands out of our pockets while we support him." Gee's comments "were inappropriate and in no way represent the opinions of the conference," Delany said in a statement, adding he had apologized to Notre Dame and the SEC. SEC Commissioner Mike Slive said Gee called to apologize for the comments about a week ago, saying they might become public. Delany called after that, also to apologize. Both apologies were accepted, Slive said. "Our focus is on the SEC," he said Thursday. "Our goal is to make us better, and we've been very successful and we're comfortable here. There really isn't much more to add to that."

CINCINNATI (AP) — A new consultant’s report isn’t good news for the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden. The report handed to a county tax levy review committee on Wednesday says revenues aren’t keeping up with expenses. Although attendance is up, the report said the situation could result with the zoo going into the red as early as 2015. But zoo executive director Thane Maynard said the facility is thriving and disagreed with the assessment that the zoo could face budget woes. “We are thriving and have been six years well in the black,” Maynard said. “We certainly have a sustainable model, and frankly are a role model to other zoos of how to get it done.” The report said rising attendance led to about a $4 million increase in annual operating revenues between 2007 and 2011. But during the same period, annual operating expenses increased by $5.1

million, much of it due to increases in wages and benefits and the hiring of 14 more full-time employees. The zoo wants the renewal of its property tax levy to be put on the November ballot. The levy brought in about $6.5 million this year. The Cincinnati Enquirer says the 112-page report was developed for the Hamilton County Tax Levy Review Committee, which advises county commissioners on whether a levy should appear on the ballot, how much revenue it should generate and its duration. Zoo attendance has increased from 950,000 in 2007 to 1.4 million last year. The report said that if attendance drops to 1.2 million, the zoo would begin operating in the red by 2015. But even if it stays steady at 1.4 million, revenue is not expected to keep up with expenses. ___ Information from: The Cincinnati Enquirer, http://www.enquirer.com

Corpse flower creates fans for Ohio botanist COLUMBUS (AP) — Joan Leonard describes herself as a roadie, an anonymous technician who helps set up and tear down the stages for rock concerts. She is Ohio State University’s greenhouse coordinator and oversees and nurtures thousands of plants, many of which figure prominently in research projects and biology lectures. A day in Leonard’s life is filled with planting, repotting and routine checks on the health and growth of more than 740 tropical, temperate and desert plant species. It’s a role she has held and cherished for 26 years. “I’m the behind-thescenes person who makes it happen,” Leonard said. But the 49-year-old botanist is far from anonymous these days, thanks to a rare, endangered Sumatran flower that grows to ridiculous proportions and smells like rotting flesh. Her affinity for raising Titan arum has

made her a rock legend in botany circles, attracting thousands of fans online and in person, waiting to see the fruits of her labor. The plant, commonly called the corpse flower, can take as long as 10 years before it spreads its first titanic bloom, which lasts a few days. After it flowers, a plant can take as long as three years to build up the energy to bloom again. Some never bloom at all, instead simply making a leaf. Getting one plant to bloom is a big deal. Two is huge. But four in three years, and two within a week of each other? That’s incredible. The bloom of Maudine on Friday night will closely follow that of Woody, which bloomed on May 14 its second bloom in three years. Jesse bloomed last year. “She is wonderful. She has such a green thumb,” said Mo Fayyaz, a University of Wisconsin botanist and director of the school’s greenhouse.

OSU’s Gee jabs at Catholics COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The president of Ohio State University said Notre Dame was never invited to join the Big Ten conference because the university's priests are not good partners, joking that "those damn Catholics" can't be trusted, according to a recording of a meeting he attended late last year. Gordon Gee also took shots at schools in the Southeastern Conference and the University of Louisville, according to the recording of the December meeting of the school's Athletic Council that The Associated Press obtained under a public records request. The university called the statements inappropriate and said Gee is undergoing a "remediation plan" because of the remarks. Gee was on a longplanned family vacation and unavailable for comment, Ohio State spokeswoman Gayle Saunders said. He apologized in a statement released to the AP. "The comments I made were just plain wrong, and in no way do they reflect what the university stands for," he said in the statement. "They were a poor attempt at humor and entirely inappropriate. There is no excuse for this and I am deeply sorry." Gee, who has taken heat before for uncouth remarks, told members of the council that he negotiated with Notre Dame officials during his first term at Ohio State, which began more than two decades ago. "The fathers are holy on Sunday, and they're holy hell on the rest of the week," Gee said to laughter at the Dec. 5 meeting by Athletic attended Director Gene Smith, several other athletic department members, professors and students. "You just can't trust those (darn) Catholics on a Thursday or a Friday, and so, literally, I can say that," said Gee, a Mormon. The Big Ten had for years courted Notre Dame, but the school resisted as it sought to retain its independent status in college football. In September, the school announced that it would join the Atlantic Coast Conference in all sports except football and hockey but would play five football games each year against ACC teams. In the recording, Gee referred specifically to dealing with the Rev. Ned Joyce, Notre Dame's longtime executive vice president, who died in 2004. "Father Joyce was one of those people who ran the university for many, many years," Gee said. Gee said the Atlantic Coast Conference added Notre Dame at a time when it was feeling vulnerable. "Notre Dame wanted to have its cake and eat it, too," Gee said, according to the recording and a copy of the meeting's minutes. Notre Dame spokesman Dennis Brown called the remarks regrettable, especially the reference to Joyce, "who served Notre Dame and collegiate athletics so well and for so long." Gee contacted Notre Dame's president, the Rev. John Jenkins, to offer an apology, which was accepted, Brown said Thursday in an email, declining to say when the apology was made. Notre Dame has a storied collegiate football history and is perhaps the

Drone strike comes despite transparency pledge WASHINGTON (AP) — The drone attack that killed a Pakistan Taliban deputy leader this week was a clear signal that despite President Barack Obama’s promise last week of new transparency in the drone program, the CIA will still launch secret attacks on militants in north Pakistan and the administration will not have to tell anyone about it. The CIA drone took off from Afghanistan on Wednesday and struck a compound in Pakistan’s remote tribal areas where the agency believed Waliur Rehman was staying. The Pakistani Taliban later confirmed the death of Rehman, believed to be one of the key planners behind the deadly suicide bombing against a CIA base in 2009. But White House officials would not even confirm that the strike occurred, much less confirming Rehman’s death, although the president pledged in a national security speech only last week that he would be more transparent about U.S. counterterrorism actions. White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Thursday would only say broadly that Obama feels a responsibility to protect U.S. forces in the “Afghan war theater” it includes Pakistan and would use a “range of abilities” to provide those forces as much protection as possible. Obama announced new “presidential policy guidelines” last week on the standards his administration has been using when deciding to launch lethal strikes, including a guideline to strike a target only if it presents an “imminent threat” to U.S. national security and only

In this July 28, 2011 file photo, Taliban No 2 commander Waliur Rehman talks to the Associated Press during an interview in Shawal area of South Waziristan along the Afghanistan border in Pakistan. Pakistani intelligence officials say a U.S. drone strike has killed the commander of the Pakistani Taliban. sarily at odds with this week’s covert strike, according to Shamila Chaudhary, a former National Security Council staffer who worked on Pakistan. “He’s codifying it, trying to set down in legal language” the counterterrorism program built during Obama’s first term, said Chaudhary, now at the New America Foundation. “But Pakistan is still an exception,” she said. The fact that the American drone took out one of Pakistan’s enemies also probably helped mute Islamabad’s reaction, she added. U.S. officials briefed on the drone program say the administration’s intent in the speech was to take the heat off the controversial drone strikes by promising future action would be done by the military when

if the target cannot be captured. He also stated his preference for using the military, not the CIA, to carry out such strikes. But he also indicated that the CIA would continue to control and run its secret drone programs in places like Pakistan and Yemen. While the CIA has permission from the Yemeni government to take strikes, it operates without permission from the Pakistani government, and the newly elected administration of Nawaz Sharif has demanded an end to the program that has killed more than 3,000 people since 2004. The program has also eliminated dozens of key militants, including al-Qaida’s second-incommand, Abu Yahya al-Libi, last year. Obama’s speech promising more transparency is not neces-

possible. The suggestion was that military strikes are more subject to publicly accessible congressional oversight. In fact, Congress is briefed on drone strikes by both the military and CIA but in closed, classified hearings. But U.S. officials say they will continue to carry out drone strikes, launched from bases in neighboring Afghanistan or anywhere else al-Qaida and its affiliates operate and local governments can’t or won’t act. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the classified program publicly. Guidelines for lethal force issued by the White House after the speech would seem to fit the Rehman case, stating that lethal action would only be taken against “a target that poses a continuing, imminent threat to U.S. persons,” where there is “near certainty that non-combatants will not be injured or killed.” White House spokesman Jay Carney on Wednesday said Rehman was responsible for cross-border attacks in Afghanistan against NATO troops and as well as deadly attacks against Pakistani troops and civilians. Rehman was also thought to be a key player in the 2009 suicide attack on a U.S. base in Afghanistan that killed seven Americans working for the CIA. Pakistani officials said the other three killed in the drone strike also were militants. The White House guidelines also state that lethal strikes would only be taken after “an assessment that the relevant governmental authorities in the country where action is contem-

plated cannot or will not effectively address the threat to U.S. persons.” Sharif had indicated willingness to open peace talks with Rehman, which could have meant the man who helped carry out one of the deadliest attacks on the CIA would get away with it. The drone strike also highlights the closing window of opportunity for the CIA to target high-level Taliban and alQaida-related militants while the agency still has tens of thousands of U.S. and NATO troops to protect its dozen-plus major bases around neighboring Afghanistan. U.S. intelligence and military officers are also drawing down, and will be relying more on Afghan agencies and intelligence agents. That complicates the mission Obama says will not end with U.S. troop withdrawal: hunting the al-Qaida remnants responsible for the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, on New York and Washington, and keeping them from launching new attacks. “They’re still trying to come back,” said a senior coalition intelligence officer in an interview Wednesday from Afghanistan, describing the remote stronghold of al-Qaida in the Afghan provinces of Kunar and Nuristan, just across the Pakistan border. He said al-Qaida continues to support both Pakistan and Afghan branches of the Taliban with financial backing, and training in bomb-building and military tactics. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to be identified.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Step back and let husband take care of his mother Dear Annie: I have been married to a wonderful man for 35 years and have terrific children and beautiful grandchildren. Our marriage has been great, except for my manipulative and emotionally blackmailing mother-in-law. Our only fights have stemmed from lies and made-up stories this woman tells. She has destroyed relationships with other family members and blames me for it even when we live miles away. I support my husband in any decision he makes regarding her, and I have never badmouthed her. She recently pulled the ultimate scheme. Knowing that I had never met my son's fiancee, my motherin-law took it upon herself to tell her the "truth" about me. After a three-hour visit with my soon-tobe daughter-in-law and her parents, the poor girl was in tears when our son came home from work. Our son said if he hadn't known the truth, he would have believed his grandmother. She was very convincing and even brought on fake tears. Our children are now so upset with their grandmother that they do not want her near their kids, planting lies in their minds. I have tried to be the better person over the years, welcoming my mother-in-law into our home, giving her birthday presents and even planning anniversary parties when none of her other children could or would. But I'm done. My husband has confronted his mother many times regarding her destructive behavior, but she says he doesn't see the "real" me. Now I worry that she is trying to come between my husband and his father, who is ill. My mother-in-law doesn't return our phone calls or tell us when Dad is in the hospital. We hear everything through a third party, sometimes days after it happens. How do I handle this? — Daughter-Out-Law Dear Daughter: Perhaps if your husband had set stricter boundaries with more dire consequences years ago, this situation would be better now, but there are no guarantees. Some people are beyond reasoning with. It's time to step back and let your husband handle his mother. As long as she believes she can control him, she will do so. Your husband should try to get his information about Dad through other sources and bypass Mom whenever possible. It's terribly sad, but you cannot force her to be a better person. (She sounds mentally ill.) Dear Annie: I am a skinny woman with large breasts. I know there is a crazy stereotype that women like me are wild party girls. I'm actually quite conservative. But other women seem to think it's OK to poke my breasts or lift them, probably to check whether they are real. Last week at a party, some insufferable girl I just met turned the entire conversation to my breasts. I walked away to cool off, but someone overheard me say that the girl was obnoxious. So "poking girl" started shouting at me, and you can guess how the rest of the night went. Annie, please tell your readers that just because a woman has large breasts doesn't mean she wants to be poked and prodded in public. Where have basic social graces gone? — Staying Classy Dear Classy: You hang around with some inappropriate, rather creepy women. Your body, all of it, belongs to you. If someone touches your breasts, gasp in horror and perhaps yell loudly for the police. What nerve. Dear Annie: Thank you for recommending the NAMI Family-toFamily class to "Parents at Wits' End." When I took that 12-week class, I learned so much about mental illness, as well as finding support and hope from other parents. I have no doubt my son is doing better because of it. — Grateful Mother Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

NY Legislature OKs naming road for Levon Helm ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — The New York state Legislature has given final approval to a measure that would name an upstate road after the late Grammy-winning drummer and singer Levon Helm. The Daily Freeman of Kingston reports that the Senate has approved legislation to designate Route 375 “Levon Helm Memorial Boulevard.” The bill calls for naming the entire 3-mile length of the Ulster County road in memory of Helm, who died in April 2012 after battling throat cancer. The road runs from Hurley to Woodstock, where Helm lived and where he hosted his “Midnight Ramble” concerts at his home and studio. The Assembly approved the bill last month. The measure needs Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s signature to take effect. Helm gained fame in the

Aldrin: ‘After Earth’ noisier than space really is NEW YORK — While Buzz Aldrin enjoys movies about space, he doesn’t always think the filmmakers get it right. A day after attending the New York premiere of the post-apocalyptic thriller “After Earth,” he says the film was a great family drama, but the space scenes were not realistic. His main point of contention: “There was a lot of noise. … You don’t get that much noise.” Aldrin, who followed Neil Armstrong onto the surface of the moon during the historic Apollo 11 landing in 1969, says that “noise doesn’t propagate in a vacuum. We talked over headsets.” The 83-year old astronaut was the guest of honor at a party for a new camera from Hasselblad. The Swedish company supplied the camera used to take pictures of the lunar landing.

HINTS FROM HELOISE

‘ICE’ is the right call for emergency situations Dear Heloise: Can you please reprint your hints on programming ICE (In Case of Emergency) numbers into your cell phone? — Hal in Tennessee I sure can! There are two ways that are recommended by experts to list emergency numbers on your phone. First, you can put a period (.) or the letter “A” before the emergency contacts so that they are listed at the top of your contacts list. Second, you should list the contact as “ICE-Mom,” or “ICE- Husband,” etc. Most emergency technicians and hospital personnel will look under the letter “I” for contact numbers. Hopefully, this information will never be needed, but it’s better to

Hints from Heloise Columnist be safe than sorry. — Heloise TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: I tend to overpack when traveling, and my clean and dirty clothes were getting mixed together. I would get home and not remember which clothes were clean and which were dirty, and I ended up having to wash them all. I now fold up a plastic garbage bag and take it

with me. I place the dirty clothes in the bag once worn. Now they stay separate in my luggage, and I know which are clean. — Debbie in Florida Good hint, and if you forget the plastic trash bag, you can use the plastic laundry bag provided by the hotel. — Heloise PAPERLESS STATEMENTS Dear Heloise: Many people use online banking and receive paperless billing statements. Here is a hint for them. Before closing out any account, go online and print out or save statements to your computer. Once you close the account, you may no longer have access to those statements, and you may need them for future reference.

This also could be helpful for retirement accounts, etc. — A Reader in Kentucky DYED RICE Dear Heloise: I was looking for an activity for my son. I wanted something like a sandbox that he could dig in and play inside. I mixed dry, raw white rice with food coloring of my choice and added a tablespoon of vinegar for each cup of rice. I placed it on a foil-lined baking sheet in a thin layer and baked it in the oven on 150 F for a while to dry. I then put all the rice in a large, flat, plastic tub with a lid and added a couple of beach toys. My son loves it, and he can even play with it inside on a rainy day. — Crafty, via email

You want the freedom to go after what you want. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You feel restless today, because you don't want life to pass you by. You know you have to make an effort to be in the swing of things and know what's really happening. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You'll enjoy making new friends today, especially in group situations. In particular, you'll be attracted to people who are different, innovative and unusual.

Others will be just as excited to explore avenues in publishing, the media, medicine, the law and higher education.

YOU BORN TODAY You're fun-loving and playful. Despite your lighthearted, jocular appearance, you are philosophically serious and often gifted with languages. You have an extroverted mask that hides your personal feelings. You also have a good sense of what things are worth. Make sure to take time in the coming year to study or learn something valuable.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, May 31, the 151st day of 2013. There are 214 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 31, 1669, English diarist Samuel Pepys (peeps) wrote the final entry of his journal, blaming his failing eyesight for his inability to continue. On this date: • In 1859, the Big Ben clock tower in London went into operation, chiming for the first time. • In 1941, “Tobacco Road,” a play about an impoverished Southern family based on the novel by Erskine Caldwell, closed on Broadway after a run of 3,182 performances.

• In 1961, South Africa became an independent republic as it withdrew from the British Commonwealth. • In 1962, former Nazi official Adolf Eichmann was hanged in Israel a few minutes before midnight for his role in the Holocaust. • In 1970, a magnitude 7.9 earthquake in Peru claimed an estimated 67,000 lives. • In 1977, the trans-Alaska oil pipeline, three years in the making, was completed. • In 1985, at least 88 people were killed, more than 1,000 injured, as over 40 tornadoes swept through parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York

and Ontario, Canada, during an 8hour period. • In 1994, the United States announced it was no longer aiming long-range nuclear missiles at targets in the former Soviet Union. • Today’s Birthdays: Actor-director Clint Eastwood is 83. Former Anglican Church envoy Terry Waite is 74. Actress Sharon Gless is 70. Football Hall-of-Famer Joe Namath is 70. Actor Tom Berenger is 63. Actress Roma Maffia is 55. Comedian Chris Elliott is 53. Actress Lea Thompson is 52. Singer Corey Hart is 51. Rapper DMC is 49. Actress Brooke Shields is 48. Actor Colin Farrell is 37.

Khmer Rouge leaders apologize to victims’ families

Simon Lopez, left, and Hiliaro Islas hold signs while trying to collect signatures in an effort to recall Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, Wednesday in downtown Phoenix.

Group fails in bid to recall Arpaio PHOENIX (AP) — A campaign to force a recall election against the polarizing sheriff of metropolitan Phoenix failed on Thursday after recall organizers said they couldn’t collect enough voter signatures to bring the lawman to the ballot again. Organizers of the recall effort against Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio needed to turn in more than 335,000 valid voter signatures by 5 p.m. Thursday to force a recall election. “It is a sad day,” said recall campaign manager Lilia Alvarez. “It is a disappointment.” Recall organizers won’t reveal the number of signatures they gathered. That said, the last update they gave on their numbers five weeks ago was that they gathered 200,000 signatures. “The count at this point doesn’t matter,” Alvarez said in deciding not to reveal the number of signatures gathered. Arpaio issued a statement suggesting that recall organizers aren’t revealing the number of signatures they gathered because they are embarrassed by the level of their failure. “This effort failed because the good people of Maricopa County, whom I’m honored to serve, rejected the wrong-headed idea of overturning an election,” Arpaio said. Arpaio supporters say the sheriff

won re-election in November fair and square and that recall organizers shouldn’t have been allowed to contest the election simply because they didn’t like the outcome. The recall effort began just weeks after the 80-year-old Republican sheriff started his sixth term in January. His November re-election race marked the second closest contest in his 20-year political career. He beat the closest candidate by 6 percentage points. Joshua Spivak, a recall expert and senior fellow at Wagner College in New York, said the Arpaio recall effort suffered from too little fundraising, having to collect an unusually high number of voter signatures for a county race and not having an alternative candidate lined up to run against Arpaio. “They are running against Joe Arpaio,” Spivak said. “But who are they electing?” Arpaio critics had argued that the sheriff should be booted because his office has failed to adequately investigate more than 400 sex-crimes cases, has cost the county $25 million in legal settlements over treatment in county jails and his office was found by a federal judge to have systematically racially profiled Latinos in his signature immigration patrols. Critics say the sheriff is more focused on getting publicity for himself than protecting the people.

Recall organizers had hoped that last week’s racial profiling ruling would pump new life into their cause. Supporters were camped outside a county building for more than four days in their final push. “I wish from the bottom of my heart that this ruling would have come out a month earlier. Had this ruling come out a month earlier, who knows how many signatures we would have gotten,” Democratic state Rep. Martin Quezada of Avondale, a supporter of the Arpaio recall effort, said. In the hours before the recall petitions were due, a trickle of people dropped by three tents set up by recall organizers outside the county building to sign petitions. Clipboardwielding volunteers hit up people walking on the sidewalk for signatures and wore T-shirts that said, “Petition Posse,” a play on Arpaio’s posses whose volunteer members assist sheriff’s deputies in some of their duties. In the past, the sheriff has apologized for the bungled sex-crimes investigations and said his office has moved to clear up the cases and taken steps to prevent a repeat of the problem. He also has vigorously denied allegations that his deputies racially profiled people in traffic patrols targeting immigrants who aren’t authorized to be in the country.

PENH, PHNOM Cambodia (AP) — Former leaders of Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge being tried by a U.N.-backed genocide tribunal apologized to families of victims of the regime’s atrocities, bringing a rare emotional note to an extended criminal trial dominated by the detailed recounting of names and old dates. Khieu Samphan, the head of state of the 1970s communist regime, and Nuon Chea, the group’s main ideologist, were responding to questions posed by the so-called civil parties, who are representing the victims’ families at the trial. The radical policies of the Khmer Rouge, who ruled Cambodia from 197579, are generally blamed for the deaths of 1.7 million people from forced labor, starvation, medical neglect and executions. Both men have issued expressions of regret before for the killings, but they have denied legal responsibility and insisted they served with the best interests of their country and its people in mind. They have also not hesitated to cast blame on their former colleagues and other parties. The two men are charged with crimes against humanity, genocide, religious persecution, homicide and torture, though their current trial focuses on the forced evacuation of Phnom Penh, the capital, when the Khmer Rouge took power in 1975. Their statements Thursday were notable chiefly for the context they were responding directly to the family members who had testified in emotional detail to the manner in which they lost their loved ones to Khmer Rouge brutality. Because prosecutors must try to prove the defendants bore responsibility for the actions, much of the tes-

timony has sought to draw a legalistic line showing their knowledge through a of command. chain Thursday’s testimony touched on the moral implications of one of the most shocking historical episodes of the 20th century. “I feel extremely sorry for the disappearance and extremely brutal killing of your father,” Khieu Samphan told Yim Roum Doul, claiming, however, that he did not know at the time about “the atrocities committed by the military commanders and leaders.” “I did not know the great suffering of our people,” he said, adding that the perpetrators “must be brought to justice.” He said he joined the Khmer Rouge not to kill fellow Cambodians but with the “determination to protect our country and to develop our country.” “But unfortunately it turned out to be a complete disaster,” he said, describing those responsible as “the most stupid persons on earth.” In testimony earlier this week, Khieu Samphan did not neglect to point the finger at other parties whom he believed contributed to the Cambodian holocaust. He spoke to one civil party about the American B-52 bombing during Cambodia’s 1970-75 civil war, and the resultant death and destruction. Some scholars suggest that the bombing polarized and radicalized Cambodian society, contributing to the hash policies implemented when the Khmer Rouge took power. He also reminded people that Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen once served with the Khmer Rouge before defecting in 1977 and said he should be considered more responsible than him because as a junior commander he would have been more aware of what was going on.

Astronauts face radiation threat on long Mars trip LOS ANGELES (AP) — Astronauts traveling to and from Mars would be bombarded with as much radiation as they’d get from a full-body CT scan about once a week for a year, researchers reported Thursday. That dose would, in some cases, exceed NASA’s standards and is enough to raise an astronaut’s cancer risk by 3 percent. As plans for deep space exploration ramp up, radiation is a big concern from high-energy galactic cosmic rays spewed by distant supernova explosions to sporadic bursts of charged particles hurled by the sun. Earth’s magnetic field helps to deflect much of that harmful radiation. NASA aims to send a crew to orbit the red planet by the mid-2030s. Private outfits like Inspiration Mars backed by NASA engineer-turnedspace tourist Dennis Tito are seeking volunteers for a Mars flight. There have been previous efforts to gauge the radiation risk for future Mars travelers, but the best estimate is coming from NASA’s Curiosity mission. Tucked inside the rover when it launched in 2011 was a radiation sensor that took readings during the 8 1/2-month cruise to Mars. From those figures, scientists calculated a spacefarer’s radiation exposure for a quicker six-month voyage in a similarly shielded spacecraft. Roundtrip: about 662 millisieverts. That’s a sizable chunk of an astronaut’s career cap of 1,000 millisieverts, which many international space agencies use to limit the accumulated radiation dosage in space. NASA’s threshold depends on age and gender. The career dose limit for 30-to-60-year-old male astronauts who never smoked ranges from 800 to 1,200 millisieverts. For female astronauts, the limit ranges from 600 to 1,000 millisieverts. The radiation exposure from a Mars journey is similar to getting a full-body CT scan every five or six days, said lead researcher Cary Zeitlin of the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colo. The estimate is just for zipping there and back; it doesn’t include time spent on the Martian surface, which would add to an astronaut’s exposure. How much more would depend on length of stay and available shelter. “You’d like the radiation exposure to be lower, but it is what it is,” said

AP

This December 2006 image provided by NASA shows European Space Agency astronaut Christer Fuglesang working outside the International Space Station. A new study published in the journal Science found that astronauts traveling to Mars and back would be exposed to a high dose of radiation. NASA wants to send a crew to orbit the red planet by the mid2030s. Dr. Norm Thagard, the first American to fly on the Russian space station Mir, who had no role in the research. “Given the importance of such a mission, the mission should be done.” The analysis appears in today’s issue of the journal Science. The amount of radiation likely won’t change unless there’s a rocket engine developed that can speed up the interplanetary ride, researchers said. “You want to get there as quickly as possible” to reduce radiation exposure, said Don Hassler, scientist in charge of the radiation instrument aboard Curiosity. Radiation on a Mars trek would be higher than what crew members cocooned inside the International Space Station typically face about 200 millisieverts per year. By contrast, people on Earth are typically exposed to about 3 millisieverts a year. Curiosity flew to Mars during a period of low to moderate solar activity. A manned mission that launches during a solar flare or storm would encounter more radiation. NASA engineers are testing propulsion systems and researching ways to reduce radiation exposure on a Mars flight. Among the possibilities: Have astronauts wear a deployable shield resembling a heavy win-

Rockets top Vikings Viking postseason run ends in a 6-0 loss BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com

FAIRBORN

In the long run, the questionable call may not have mattered. But it sure got the Miami East Vikings off to a bad start. A Clermont Northeastern baserunner touched Miami East’s third baseman from behind on her way past as Olivia Edgell was waiting for what should have been an inning-ending pop to come down and what appeared to be an

obvious interference call. But the ball hit the ground and the run was allowed to stand, giving the Rockets the lead in the top of the first inning — and they used that momentum to bury the Vikings in a 6-0 Division III regional semifinal victory Thursday at Wright State University.

Foiling the curse

Buccs advance to third straight Devils advance to regional final with 3-2 win regional final BY BEN ROBINSON Sports Writer

BY COLIN FOSTER Associate Sports Editor colinfoster@civitasmedia.com

Sometimes when things aren’t going your way, you have to find a way to make your own breaks. Which is what the Covington Buccaneers did after a frustrating first two innings against Marion Local in a 10-0 win in the Division IV regional semifinal at Tipp City on Thursday.

The Division II regional round has been a stumbling block for Tippecanoe the last couple of years. That curse was lifted on Thursday. In a game impacted by one controversial call, the Red Devils escaped with a 3-2 victory over Franklin in the regional semifinal Thursday at Woerner Field in Dayton.

TIPP CITY

DAYTON The call came in the top of the fifth, with Tippecanoe clinging to a 3-1 lead and the Wildcats threatening. Franklin loaded the bases to open the inning, which spelled the end for Tipp starter Steven Calhoun, the eventual winning pitcher. Cameron Johnson came on with the bases juiced and gave up an RBI single to the first batter, which cut the score to 3-2. The next hitter up, Franklin’s Ben Kirby, hit a pop fly to left field that appeared score another run and tie the game. But moments later, the run was taken off the scoreboard when the umpire ruled the runner left the bag early. Then with two outs, Johnson threw a pitch by catcher B.J. Donathan and the Franklin runner attempted Tippecanoe catcher B.J. Donathan lifts closer Cameron

Staff Reports

SIDNEY

The rain officially put an early end to Troy Post 43’s game at Sidney. In reality, though, it was Troy’s bats. Post 43 hit three home runs in the first two innings Thursday night at Sidney and piled up 13 runs after only three, and the rain put an end to an 18-4 victory. Colton Nealeight started

things off with a two-run homer and Michael Pierce added a three-run shot as Post 43 (6-1) scored six in the first — all with two outs. Evans then hit a threerun blast in the second, and the rout was on. Nealeigh finished 3 for 4 with two doubles and a homer, Evans was 3 for 4 with a double and a homer, Garrett Mitchell was 2 for

4 with a double, Jacob Naas was 3 for 4 and Zach Thompson was 2 for 4. Austin Baumgardner got the win on the mound. “We’re on a good run to start off,” Troy Post 43 coach Frosty Brown said. “Our pitchers have thrown well, and we’re right where we should be.” Post 43 is off until Monday when it hosts the Miami Valley Wolverines.

“Things weren’t happening for us early on,” Covington coach Dean Denlinger said. “Casey (Yingst) was struggling and we had a couple of girls thrown out on the bases.” Yingst, who is one of the most accurate pitchers in the area and ended up recording a no-hitter, allowed three walks in the first two innings.

Richardson: I’m not injury prone BEREA (AP) — Not quite into his second NFL season, Browns running back Trent Richardson has already undergone knee surgery, broken some ribs, hurt his ankle and strained a muscle in his shin. He’s been battered and bruised, but Richardson is confident he’ll be able to stay on the field this year and the remainder of his career. Don’t you dare put a label on him. “Injury prone,” he said, “is not going to be me.” Richardson missed practice on Thursday with a strain in his lower right

leg he sustained while running last week. Although the injury isn’t believed to be serious, the Browns are being extra careful with the former first-round pick, who may sit out next week’s minicamp as well. “It ain’t no biggie,” Richardson said. “It ain’t nothing to worry about. I could be out there but they want to be cautious about it and make sure I’m right for training camp.” As his teammates went through the final session of organized team activities under first-year coach Rob Chudzinski, Richardson worked off to the side on

his conditioning. When he was finished and the Browns began to scrimmage, all Richardson could do was watch. And that’s when the real pain kicked in. “It’s terrible, man” he said. “But I know in my mind that it’s not going to be near like last year, being hurt and injured. It’s hard to just watch. I do want to be out there. I tell coach every day that I can go. I put my helmet on or something, and we laugh. I know he means good about sitting me out for right now.” Injuries slowed

Richardson during a productive rookie season when he showed flashes of one day becoming a major star if he isn’t one already. He missed the exhibition season recovering from an arthroscopic procedure on his knee, and then played the final 10 games with “two or three” broken ribs, an agonizing injury that would have sidelined most players. Still, the muscular 5foot-9, 230-pounder managed to rush for 950 yards with 11 touchdowns and added 367 receiving yards. Richardson only missed the season finale.

Cleveland Indians’ Asdrubal Cabrera doubles to drive in a run in the fourth inning against the Cincinnati Reds Thursday in Cleveland.

Tribe shuts down Reds CLEVELAND (AP) — Scott Kazmir allowed one run in seven innings and the Cleveland Indians scored seven runs with two outs in the fourth to defeat the Cincinnati Reds 7-1 on Thursday. The fourth-inning rally, which featured six straight run-scoring hits, gave the Indians a split of the annual Ohio Cup interleague series. The Reds won in Cincinnati on Monday and Tuesday before the Indians took both games when the series shifted to Cleveland. The Reds have lost nine in a row at Progressive Field and haven’t won in Cleveland since May 22, 2010. Kazmir (3-2), recording his longest outing in the majors in three years, dodged a bases-loaded jam in the third when he got Joey Votto to bounce into an inning-ending double play. Run-scoring singles by Michael Brantley and Yan Gomes, an RBI double by Ryan Raburn, a two-run double by Michael Bourn and an RBI single by Jason Kipnis chased starter Homer Bailey (3-4) in the fourth. Asdrubal Cabrera added a run-scoring double off Alfredo Simon. Jay Bruce drove in Cincinnati’s only run with an RBI single in the sixth. The Indians carried a five-game losing streak, in which they scored 14 runs, into the series. Cleveland had also dropped seven of eight, but the bats woke up when the Reds hit town. Cleveland homered twice Wednesday, including a game-clinching three-run homer by Jason Giambi,

and fell one run off their biggest inning of the season Thursday. Cabrera was hit by a pitch to start the fourth and took second on Carlos Santana’s one-out single. After Mark Reynolds struck out, Brantley, who was in a 1-for-15 skid, singled sharply through the left side to score Cabrera. Gomes followed by lining a single to left, scoring Santana. Raburn’s double to left scored Brantley before Bourn drove a double into the left-field corner for two more runs and a 50 lead. Kipnis, who was in a 4for-34 slump, singled to right to score Bourn and finish Bailey. Cabrera doubled to right against Simon. Brantley and Kipnis weren’t the only Cleveland hitters to break out of slumps in the inning. Santana came into the game batting .204 in May while Raburn was in a 3for-24 skid. Bailey, who threw 45 pitches in the fourth, lasted 3 2-3 innings, his shortest outing of the season. The right-hander allowed seven runs — tying his season high. Kazmir, a two-time AllStar with Tampa Bay, had his career sidetracked by arm problems that began in 2009. He was traded to the Angels that season but was 9-15 in 2010 and appeared in only one game the following year before being released. The Indians signed him to a minor-league contract in January after he pitched in an independent league last season.

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 to take home. The ball took a good bounce off the brick backstop, Donathan recovered the ball and flipped it to Johnson to get the out at the plate. Disaster averted for the Red Devils — and a new school record for wins set with 28. “It’s the first time we’ve won a regional game, so that itself is a big monkey off our back,” Tippecanoe coach Bruce Cahill said. “Our top six guys I thought could hit him, I mean make contact anyway. I think all of our strikeouts were at the bottom of the order. We got the three (runs) we needed, then we held on for dear life. “There were some calls in that game that I wasn’t sure of. Their kids called out at the plate for leaving early, I didn’t see it. I don’t even know who appealed it, if anyone appealed it, or if the umpire just called it himself. No one said anything, I just all of a sudden saw him throw up the out sign.” “I didn’t see it,” said Johnson about the call. “I guess coach appealed it, maybe B.J. appealed it. I don’t know. I wasn’t even watching, I was backing up home plate. That was a huge break. That was a huge play.” Ace Ben Hughes started warming up in the bullpen in the sixth, but the Red Devils didn’t need to use him. Johnson was in complete command from that moment on, allowing two hits and striking out two. And the defense backed him up in the process. Johnson recorded a onetwo-three inning in the sixth and Tipp made clutch plays in the away seventh to secure the win. After Alex Rutledge led off the seventh with a single, Johnson fielded a sacrifice bunt attempt and threw out Rutledge at second for the first out. On the next atbat, Hughes covered some serious ground to make a catch on a screaming line drive hit to center. Following that, Johnson struck out the final batter looking — and the Red Devils locked up their spot in the regional final. “I’ve been closer for most of the year actually, so I’m kind of used to situations like that,” Johnson said. “I

That’s the main thing, especially when we were getting squeezed a little bit by the umpires. I was just trying to make them put the ball in play.” Tippecanoe scored all of its runs in the bottom of the third. Cole Quillen led off the inning with a double

and Johnson bunted him to second on the next at-bat. After a Zack Blair walk, Hughes singled and Quillen scored seconds later on a passed ball to tie the game. Cleanup hitter Carter Langdon — who will play baseball for the University of Dayton next year — followed by drilling an RBI triple off the left

field fence, before Austin Hadden knocked him in, courtesy of an error by Franklin. Leading the Tipp offense was Langdon, who finished the game 2 for 3. Hadden had a hit and a pair of stolen bases. Tippecanoe and Franklin both finished the game with six hits. All of the players and fans knew the history of the Tippecanoe baseball program in the regional round entering Thursday, but that topic wasn’t brought up during the week of preparation. After all, the past is irrelevant at this point in the season. “We tried to stay away from that,” Johnson said. “This is a new season. Unfinished business has been our motto all year. We’ve just been waiting to get back here. It feels good to come out with a win today.” “You’ve got to have breaks,” Cahill said. “That’s what it’s all about anyway. When you get to this level, it’s not all about how good you are, a lot of times, it’s about catching a break, and we haven’t caught too many breaks here in the past. That’s one for us I guess.” Now the Red Devils have a chance to take it one step further with a win today against Jonathan Alder.

Mattek-Sands tops Li, advances at French Open PARIS (AP) — There were moments, as recently as last year, when a body that would not stay healthy and on-court results prompted Bethanie MattekSands to wonder whether it was simply time to call it a career after more than a decade as a professional tennis player. “She was ready to quit,” her husband, Justin Sands, recalled. “She was like, ‘I’m done. I can’t do it. I don’t want to come back.’” Instead, Mattek-Sands “stuck it out,” in her words, making some significant changes to her diet after discovering a host of food allergies, to her point-topoint focus. And at age 28, in her 27th Grand Slam tournament, Mattek-Sands earned her most significant

victory to date, a 5-7, 6-3, 62 upset of 2011 champion Li Na at the rain-soaked French Open on Thursday to join four other American women in the third round. “I know how I can play, and, you know, there were times when I just physically couldn’t do it,” the 67thranked Mattek-Sands said, “and I think that’s really frustrating.” There was hip surgery less than a week after her wedding in late 2008, a torn shoulder in 2011, a broken right big toe in 2012. Her ranking plummeted from a best of 30th to outside the top 200. She found herself playing in the sport’s minor leagues and going through qualifying just to get into tournaments. And now?

“She can take more enjoyment out of it, out of playing,” said her coach, Adam Altschuler. “We’ve got to go do it the day after this and the day after that. But it’s great for her to show the world she’s this good.” By beating the sixthseeded Li to earn her fourth career win in 25 tries against top-10 players, Mattek-Sands helped give the United States its largest group of women in the third round at the claycourt Grand Slam tournament since six made it in 2004. The five U.S. women left, out of the 15 in the main draw, are the most this far at any Grand Slam tournament since the halfdozen at Wimbledon in 2005. “We have a lot of talent-

ed, young kids,” MattekSands said, then added with a wink and a smile, “Obviously, older kids, too.” The other Americans in the third round: No. 17 Sloane Stephens and 54thranked Jamie Hampton, who also won Thursday, and No. 1 Serena Williams and No. 29 Varvara Lepchenko, who won Wednesday. “Other than Serena, we’re all a work in progress. A couple years ago, we were not even here. And so we’ve definitely taken a step forward and we’re still progressing and still trying to make that push,” said Hampton, who beat qualifier Anna Karolina Schmiedlova of Slovakia 75, 6-2. “Whenever you have a big group like that, there are going to be a few that

are going to rise.” Up next for the 23-yearold Hampton is No. 7 Petra Kvitova, the 2011 Wimbledon champion. The 20-year-old Stephens, meanwhile, faces 92ndranked Marina Erakovic, who beat No. 16 Dominika Cibulkova 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 to become the first woman from New Zealand to reach the French Open’s third round. Stephens, like other players on a wet afternoon, weathered two rain delays during a 6-1, 6-3 win against Vania King of the U.S. “You literally have nothing to do,” Stephens said. “Should I eat? Do cartwheels?” Only 18 of 32 scheduled singles matches were com-

pleted, with two-time Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka and 2011 U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur among the winners. Six were suspended in progress defending champion Maria Sharapova led Canada’s Eugenie Bouchard by a set and a break when they stopped and eight were postponed entirely, including seventime French Open title winner Rafael Nadal against Slovakia’s Martin Klizan. Last year’s runner-up to Nadal, Novak Djokovic, gestured at the dark, threatening sky between points, as if to admonish the clouds for even considering halting play before he could finish a 6-2, 6-0, 6-2 victory over 83rd-ranked Guido Pella of Argentina.

Buccs ■ CONTINUED FROM 18 But a huge catch by Jessica Dammeyer in center field and some plays made in the infield helped get Yingst out of the first two innings without suffering any damage. Covington couldn’t break through offensively in the first two innings despite connecting for two hits in the first and two more in the second inning. That’s because Marion Local threw out two Bucc runners at second, switching the momentum heavily to the Flyer side of the field.

That would change in the third, however, as Yingst found her groove in the circle by shutting down the side and then Covington followed up with a three-run effort in the bottom of the inning. “Casey lost her focus a bit in the second inning, but she started to find herself in the third inning,” Denlinger said. “We kind of fed off of that at the plate.” Jessie Shilt got things rolling with a one-out single and Heidi Snipes followed with a single to put runners at the corners. After Snipes

stole second, Yingst helped out her cause with a sacrifice RBI that scored Shilt for the first run of the game. Connor Schaffer then wrapped a hard-hit ball up the middle and reached on the error, which set up a two-run single by Brittanie Flora. “We hit the ball well,” said Denlinger after his team connected for 15 base hits in the contest. “I think once we broke through, we relaxed and kept the pressure on.” Covington followed up the huge third inning with

another three-run effort in the fourth as Haley Adams led off with a double to left field, and hits by Cassidy Cain, Heidi Cron and Jessie Shilt followed to push the lead to 6-0. A pair of Covington doubles by Schaffer and Morgan Arbogast pushed the lead to 7-0 in the bottom of the fifth and then Covington put the game away in the bottom of the sixth. Shilt singled and stole second with one out and Snipes followed with a walk to set up a two-run double

by Schaffer. Flora then connected on a walk-off double that scored Erin Olson, who was inserted as a courtesy runner for Schaffer. “The girls are focused,” said Denlinger. “We’re playing solid defense, and that’s who we really are. That’s our identity.” Covington once again put together an error-free performance in recording its 16th shutout of the season, but the offensive firepower was just as impressive as nine Buccs recorded hits or contributed with an RBI. Schaffer led the way

with a pair of doubles and two RBI on three hits, while Flora drove in three runs on a double and a single. Shilt had a pair of base hits for two RBI to go along with doubles turned in by Arbogast and Adams. Snipes had a pair of hits, while Cain and Snipes reached on singles. Yingst rounded out the Covington offensive performance with an sacrifice fly to drive in a run. The Buccs advance to their third straight regional final on Saturday at noon against Triad at Tipp City.

Vikings

Miami East’s Madison Linn tracks a fly ball. ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 the Rockets (22-5) added two more unearned runs in the second — and then unloaded for three earned runs in the fourth to put the game away. “They’re one heck of a team,” Miami East coach Brian Kadel said of the Rockets. “Their pitcher threw well, held us to only one hit, their defense played well and they hit the ball hard. “You’ve got to have your best day against a team like that — and we did not have our best day.” Things certainly didn’t start well. After a leadoff walk to begin the game, the Vikings recorded two outs and looked ready to get out of the inning. A hit-batter put runners on first and second, but starter Paige Kiesewetter induced an easy pop to third. But even after there was contact on the basepaths that led directly to the ball hitting the ground, the run stayed on the board, the runners stayed on base and the inning continued. The umpires ruled that the third baseman had given way to the shortstop and that’s why the ball had dropped, not addressing the contact at all. “There were a couple of plays we should have made defensively early on, and it gave them a little momentum,” Kadel said. The second play came in the second inning. After a one-out single and a twoout infield single, Chelsae Osborn blooped a single to right. The fielder overran the ball on the ground, allowing both runners to score. “We’ve been able to work out of situations like that before,” Kadel said. “Usually we’re putting the ball in play hard. But if we don’t have it going at the plate and the other team gets going, it’s tougher to come out of it.” And with Emily Anderson dealing on the mound, the Vikings (23-7) couldn’t get its offense started. Anderson struck out five, walked four and gave up one hit in the game to Lindsay Brookhart in the

And that was the one inning that the Vikings threatened in — after Brookhart’s oneout single, Christine Bowling drew a two-out walk and Paige Mullen reached on an error to load the bases. But Anderson got the final batter of the inning swinging to end it. The Vikings’ lone highlight in the game came on defense in the fifth. After a leadoff double by Alexis Burden and a single to put runners on the corners, Miami East caught the trailing runner trying to steal second. Then Rachel Ward hit a grounder to Bowling at short. Bowling paused to look the runner at third back then fired to Sam Denlinger at first — and Burden took off. Denlinger recorded the out and fired home to Sarah O’Neal to complete the double play. It was the second time the Vikings’ senior class had been to the regional semifinal — they were there as freshmen. “Two district titles, district runners-up last year, and I haven’t checked the record books but I have no doubt that this is the winningest senior class to go through the school,” Kadel said. “They’ve helped us

Heat recapture momentum with 90-79 win MIAMI (AP) — There will be no win-or-else Game 6 in the Eastern Conference finals for the Miami Heat this season. LeBron James saw to that, and now the reigning champions are one victory from a third straight trip to the NBA Finals. James finished with 30 points, eight rebounds and six assists, Udonis Haslem made his last eight shots on the way to a 16-point night, and the Heat used a dominant third quarter to turn things around and beat the Indiana Pacers 90-79 in Game 5 on Thursday. Mario Chalmers scored 12 points and Dwyane Wade added 10 for the Heat, who lead the series 3-2 and will look to close it out at Indiana on Saturday night. The Heat ousted the Pacers in six games in a second-round matchup last season. Paul George had 27 points and 11 rebounds for the Pacers, who got 22 points from Roy Hibbert and 17 from David West. The Pacers led by as many as seven at one point, but had no answer for the Heat in

the third, getting outscored 30-13 in the period, including 21-6 in the final 7 minutes. James and Haslem combined for 26 points in the third, and were simply too much. Haslem’s first shot of the night hit the side of the backboard. He didn’t miss again, going 8 for 8 and sealing it with a jumper with 1:51 left 12 seconds before drawing an offensive foul against Lance Stephenson, the sixth for the Pacers’ guard, who finished with just four points. A year ago, the Heat lost Game 5 of the East finals to Boston, and needed a 45-point game from James in Game 6 just to extend their season. Not this time. The Finals and a date with San Antonio is now one win away. As if this one needed any more buildup, there was plenty of news long before tipoff. And all that happened more than eight hours prior to game time. Things didn’t exactly calm down once the ball went into the air.

Schwartzel takes early lead at the Memorial DUBLIN (AP) — Charl Schwartzel made sure one hole didn’t ruin an entire round Thursday in the Memorial. Schwartzel hit the ball so consistently well at Muirfield Village that the former Masters champion twice had stretches of four straight birdies. And when he made a double bogey with an 8-iron in hand and his ball on a tee toward the

end of the round, he got rid of that bad taste with one last birdie for a 7-under 65. Schwartzel had a oneshot lead over Scott Piercy, who went from smashing it to playing it safe, and he was six shots clear of five-time winner Tiger Woods. Woods hit the ball well enough to be much closer, though he missed too many birdie chances and didn’t make up any ground on the

par 5s. “That’s probably the highest score I could have shot,” Woods said after his 1under 71. Woods was one shot worse than 53-year-old Fred Couples, the Presidents Cup captain at Muirfield Village this fall, and one shot better than 14-year-old Guan Tianlang, who has played more PGA Tour events than Woods over the last two

months. Rory McIlroy, meanwhile, might be headed for another short week at the tournament Jack Nicklaus built. After opening with a birdie, McIlroy didn’t putt nearly well enough to atone for some loose shots. McIlroy four-putted the par-3 12th for a double bogey, had a three-putt bogey on No. 7 and ended his round by missing a 4-

foot birdie putt. That gave him a 78. “I don’t really have many explanations for this,” McIlroy said. Schwartzel played in the morning, when the slick greens were still smooth, and he made 10 birdies in his round. Most of them were in the 10-foot range, though he picked up a bonus with a 25-foot putt down a slight ridge on the 16th. As

well as he played, he thought a great round might turn into just a good one with one swing. His 8-iron on the par-3 eighth hole drifted right and caught the downward slope of a bunker. The South African tried to put a little more spin on the difficult shot and wound up sending it over the green. He chipped past the hole to about 8 feet and missed that to take double bogey.
