GOP strategizes on repeal Romney turns court’s decison into battle cry WASHINGTON (AP) — Turned away at the Supreme Court, congressional Republicans sketched a strategy Friday to repeal the nation’s health care law in 2013 that requires a sweeping election victory carrying Mitt Romney to the presidency and the party at least to narrow control of the Senate.
Romney sought to turn the court’s decision upholding the two-year-old law into a campaign battle cry, saying the 5-4 ruling had injected “greater urgency” into his challenge to President Barack Obama. “I think many people assumed that the Supreme Court would do the work that was necessary in repealing
Obamacare,” he said, adding that the justices “did not get that job done.” Several Republicans seized on a portion of Chief Justice John Roberts’ majority opinion that said the centerpiece of the law, a requirement to purchase insurance, was constitutional because it is based on Congress’ power to impose a tax.
“Those who will end up paying the heaviest burden for not buying government-mandated insurance won’t be the wealthiest Americans, but the very middle class families the president claims to defend,” said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. The White House said that was an argument it was happy to have.

Troy Police Sgt. Shawn McKinney reacts while looking over a tree that struck him and his police cruiser Friday during the wind storm in Troy.
Storm brings damage Troy Police officer injured by falling tree BY NATALIE KNOTH Staff Writer nknoth@tdnpublishing.com After a sunny, hot and humid afternoon, Troy residents were encouraged to take cover late Friday afternoon as heavy downpours and winds whipped through the area, toppling trees and knocking out power throughout Miami County. Troy resident Jules Conner was attending a pre-Fourth of July party at the Troy Elks at the corner of Franklin and Cherry streets when the storm swept through, blowing over a sign and nearly dismantling tents. Sgt. Shawn McKinney of the Troy Police Department saw attendees struggling to keep tents upright and pulled over to help. A tree in the yard then fell to the ground, pinning McKinney underneath. “The car was what kept the tree from completely falling on McKinney,” Conner said, referring to McKinney’s police cruiser. He sustained minor
TROY injuries, while no one else was hurt. “I’m still shaking,” Conner said shortly after the incident. “It was really scary.” Meteorologist Julie Reed at National Weather Service in Wilmington said “absolutely no” tornadoes were reported in Miami County. However, the storm exhibited very fast, quick moving winds — called a derecho — which can cause even more severe weather than a tornado, she said. The National Weather Service reported winds of 82 mph at Dayton International Airport. Troy Police Department Capt. Joe Long reported that 118 law enforcement calls were made throughout the area from 4-7 p.m., not including fire and EMS calls. “I know we had quite a bit of those,” he said. After 7 p.m., Long said calls to police were slowing down significantly.
Three auto accidents were reported in Troy, none of which resulted in injuries. The accidents occurred at Stonyridge Avenue and Market Street, West Main Street at McDonald’s and West Main Street and Stanfield Road. In Piqua, several fast food restaurants and retail businesses, including the Miami Valley Centre Mall, remained closed around 7:30 p.m. One injury was reported within the Piqua city limits when a tree fell on top of two pickup trucks near the corner of Madison and Vine streets. A man sitting in one of the trucks was injured and was transported to UVMC by Piqua paramedics. Just north of downtown Piqua, several RVs at Paul Sherry RV on North County Road 25-A were blown over by the straight line winds. A roof on Sherry’s Car and Credit showroom also sustained significant damage. — Susan Hartley of Ohio Community Media contributed to this report.
Young baseball player collapses in heat BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com A simple game of baseball Thursday evening took a turn for the worse following a young player’s collapse at home plate at a ball field in Troy. Troy Fire Department Station 3 medics responded 6 to the Mark Knoop Baseball
TROY Complex at 6:48 p.m. after a report of an 11-year-old boy who had overheated and passed out while at bat during a Troy Junior Baseball game. The boy collapsed, suffering from heat exhaustion, and was immediately transported to Upper Valley
Medical Center for treatment. On Friday, hospital officials said the boy was treated and released. Dee Mullen, UMVC emergency room director, said despite the heat wave that swept through Miami County, heat-related injuries have been minimal in the emergency room. “People are taking it easy,
drinking plenty of water and aren’t out in the heat if they don’t need to be,” Mullen said. “People are preparing themselves so as far as heatrelated injuries, we’ve been very busy, but not with those illnesses.” Calls to the Troy Junior Baseball board concerning its policy to cancel games due to heat were not returned as of press time.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department declared Friday that Attorney General Eric Holder’s decision to withhold information about a bungled gun-tracking operation from Congress does not constitute a crime and he won’t be prosecuted for contempt of Congress. The House voted Thursday afternoon to find Holder in criminal and civil contempt for refusing to turn over the documents. President Barack Obama invoked his executive privilege authority and ordered Holder not to turn over materials about executive branch deliberations and internal recommendations. In a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, the department said that it will not bring the congressional contempt citation against Holder to a federal grand jury and that it will take no other action to prosecute the attorney general. Dated Thursday, the letter was released Friday. Deputy Attorney General James Cole said the decision is in line with long-standing Justice Department practice across administrations of both political parties. “We will not prosecute an executive branch official under the contempt of Congress statute for withholding subpoenaed documents pursuant to a presidential assertion of executive privilege,” Cole wrote. In its letter, the department relied in large part on a Justice Department legal opinion crafted during Republican Ronald Reagan’s presidency. Frederick Hill, the spokesman for Rep. Darrell Issa, said it is regrettable that “the political leadership of the Justice Department” is taking that position. Issa, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman, is leading the effort to get the material related to Operation Fast and Furious. Although the House voted Thursday to find Holder in criminal and civil contempt, Republicans probably are still a long way from obtaining documents they want for their inquiry into Operation Fast and Furious, a flawed guntracking investigation focused on Phoenix-area gun shops by Justice’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The criminal path is now closed and the civil route through the courts would not be resolved anytime soon.

European breakthrough defied expectations BRUSSELS (AP) — Europe’s leaders finally rose to the challenge Friday, backing bold ideas to help weak countries and frail banks ravaged by a debt crisis that has crippled economic growth and threatened the global financial system. Markets roared their approval after leaders of the 27 European Union countries agreed on an aggressive plan to fix the financial crisis. For the first time in 19 summits since the start of the crisis, the EU leaders declared they would: • Centralize regulation of European banks and, if necessary, bail them out directly, instead of funneling loans through governments that
already have too much debt. • Ease borrowing costs on Italy and Spain, the euro region's thirdand fourth-largest economies. • Stop mandating painful budget cuts to every country in need of emergency financial aid. • Tie their budgets, currency and governments more tightly. The decisions made at the EU summit in Brussels won’t end the crisis that has gripped Europe for nearly three years. Plenty of questions remain about how the bank bailouts would work, whether there’s enough money committed to rescue banks and governments and whether impoverished, indebted Greece will be forced out of the 17-nation euro club.
But for EU leaders who have consistently underwhelmed their exasperated publics and nervous financial markets, Friday's efforts marked a breakthrough. The prime minister of Ireland — one of the five eurozone countries that have required emergency funds — said the plans marked a “seismic shift in European policy.� British Prime Minister David Cameron said that “for the first time in some time we have actually seen steps ... to get ahead of the game.� There was an immediate sign that Europe’s latest plan was easing fear in financial markets: The cost for the troubled government of Spain to borrow fell dramatically. The interest rate, or yield, on the country’s 10-year
bonds fell by more than half a percentage point, to 6.34 percent. The Dow Jones industrial average recorded its secondbiggest gain of the year, and stocks advanced even further in Europe — in strong and weak countries alike. The benchmark stock index in Germany rose 4.3 percent, by far its best performance this year. Germany has the biggest economy in Europe, and a warm reaction there was a crucial sign of approval for the plan. Prices for oil and other commodities shot higher, another sign that the plan may remove a big barrier to a healthier economy. At first it looked like the summit would produce little more than a modest plan to stimulate growth in Europe. But Italy and
Spain, whose borrowing costs have soared to dangerous levels, refused to sign off on the $150 billion spending plan unless something was done to ease their financial burdens. After an all-night standoff, the leaders agreed to expand the use of Europe’s bailout funds — and do so without imposing strict austerity measures on countries that are meeting existing pledges to control spending. The bailout money could be used to buy bonds to drive down a country’s borrowing costs. Or it could be loaned directly to troubled banks, which EU leaders said would help break “the vicious cycle� in which weak banks and weak governments threaten to drag each other down.

Rescue plan boosts Dow (AP) — Financial markets around the world stormed higher Friday after European leaders came up with a breakthrough plan to rescue banks, relieve debtburdened governments and restore investor confidence. The Dow Jones industrial average climbed 277 points, and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index had its best day of the year. Stocks advanced even further in Europe, in strong and weak countries alike. The price of oil posted its biggest one-day increase in more than three years, and other commodities shot higher — signs of hope that a deal in Europe will

Jones industrial average closed up 277.83 points, its second-best showing this year. The S&P 500 index soared 33 points, or 2.5 percent. The rally left the S&P a gain of 8.3 percent at the halfway mark for the year. • The benchmark stock index in Germany rose 4.3 percent, by far its best performance this year. Germany has the biggest economy in Europe, and it depends heavily on exports, so it needs other countries to stay healthy. • Stocks hit their highest level in two months in Italy and Spain, two of the countries with the shakiest finances.

that would disproportionately benefit� the same group. At the same time, the administration announced the latest in a series to steps to implement a law that already has curbed insurance company abuses and cut costs for seniors with high prescription drug costs. Officials said another round of financing was available for states to set up health insurance exchanges, the one-stop markets for consumers scheduled to open in 2014. Polls find Obama and
Romney in a close race four months before the election, with the economy the nation’s overriding issue. The battle for control of the Senate is also uncertain, and one day after the court’s ruling, the principal fallout was political. Romney, Obama and congressional candidates in both parties raised campaign money from the ruling, in which Roberts unexpectedly joined four more liberal justices to uphold the law’s core component — a requirement that nearly all Americans
purchase health insurance beginning in 2014. The Republican-controlled House is planning to vote in a little more than a week to repeal the law. But that is a symbolic vote, designed to show faith with opponents of what the GOP scornfully calls “Obamacare.� Party officials also hope to force some Democrats into a difficult vote on legislation that has never been popular with the public. The repeal measure is doomed in the Senate, where Democrats hold a majority. Recognizing as much, Republicans were turning their attention to 2013 as their next realistic opportunity to erase legislation that they say gives government control of health at the same time it raises taxes, cuts Medicare and swells deficits. “One thing is clear: we need the majority in the Senate,� Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky wrote in a fundraising email to supporters. “Every path to repeal depends on it.� A 60-vote majority is normally required to overcome adamant opposition to legislation in the Senate, but under limited circumstances, a mere majority can suffice. Democrats took advantage of that when they pushed the health care law to passage in 2010 when they controlled 59 seats.
Presidential press secretary Jay Carney said Obama has signed legislation cutting middle class taxes repeatedly, that Republicans want to extend existing income tax cuts for the wealthy and then add “another $5 trillion ...

clear that European leaders will compromise to solve the crisis. One of the biggest stock gains Friday came in Germany, which took a hard line in earlier negotiations. There was a sign immediately that Europe’s latest plan was working: The cost for the troubled government of Spain to borrow money on the bond market fell dramatically, by more than half a percentage point, to 6.34 percent.

In Brussels, leaders of the 17 countries that use the euro appeared finally to have found a broad strategy to fight a debt crisis that has hounded European governments and world investors for three years. The leaders agreed to pump money directly into stricken banks, let some countries tap into rescue money without submitting to stringent budget requirements and, later, tie European governments closer in economic union. David Kelly, chief global strategist at JPMorgan Funds, said it was becoming

No power above this power,� he told the tens of thousands of mostly Islamist supporters packing the square. “I reaffirm to you I will not give up any of the president’s authorities. I can’t afford to do this. I don’t have that right." Morsi’s words were a show of defiance as he gears up for a power struggle with the country’s ruling generals, who took over major presidential powers and disbanded the Islamist-controlled parliament in the days before the election results were released. Still, the Muslim Brotherhood leader also avoided direct confrontation with the military leaders and was set to be officially sworn-in Saturday during a ceremony at the country’s high court — not parliament, the traditional venue — as dictated by the generals. At one point, Morsi opened his jacket to show the crowd he was not wearing a bulletproof vest, then declared he “fears no one but God.� The pledge to free AbdelRahman came in response to repeated calls by his ultraconservative supporters for the sheik to be repatriated to Egypt on humanitarian grounds. AbdelRahman is serving a life sentence.

CAIRO (AP) — President-elect Mohammed Morsi roused the masses in Tahrir Square on Friday, vowing to fight on behalf of the people and defying the ruling generals by reading a symbolic oath of office a day early at the site where Egypt's revolution was born. The country’s first Islamist president also made a pledge likely to complicate relations with the U.S., vowing to seek the release of blind sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, jailed in the U.S. for plotting to blow up New York City landmarks and assassinate then-President Hosni Mubarak. “We love you Morsi!� the crowd roared in response as the 60-year-old U.S.-trained engineer left the podium to get closer to the cheering crowd. The promise to seek the release of the EgyptianAbdel-Rahman born reflected the populist tone of Morsi's speech — his first in the square that was the epicenter of the popular uprising that ousted Mubarak. He also said he would release all detained Egyptian protesters facing military tribunals. Pointing to protesters holding photos of prisoners, including Abdel-Rahman, the spiritual leader of men convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, Morsi declared: “I will make every effort, I will do it, starting tomorrow, to free them all, including

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Daily Star, Lebanon, on Egypt: Egypt’s Supreme Council of the Armed Forces promised they would transfer power to the new president by the end of June, following the decree it issued under which it maintains significant powers until a new constitution is written, limiting the power of that president. Inspection of SCAF’s decree reveals that the military has not only given itself power to potentially form the committee that will write the constitution, but also legislative power until a new parliament is elected. It has mandated its head as the head of the army, rather than the president, until a new constitution, clauses of which it has given itself veto power over, is written. This decree will heavily circumscribe the power of the future president, and is being seen by many as a pre-emptive coup to ward against the possibility that Egypt’s Islamists will triumph in elections. It follows the military’s decision to dissolve the parliament, in which the Muslim Brotherhood gained a majority in elections six months ago.

That translates into far more seats in parliament for the winning party, enough for a coalition with the socialists. Meanwhile, the French socialists’ victory in yesterday’s parliamentary elections should give us pause. Following François Hollande’s win in last month’s presidential election, last night’s results give him huge power. He should have little difficulty getting his tax-and-spend policies passed. Hollande is committed to reducing France’s deficit, but the program for doing so has been extended to 2017. In addition he is fulfilling campaign promises to reduce the pension age in some sectors and hire 60,000 more teachers. But where does this leave the Franco-German alliance? The German chancellor, Angela Merkel, is clear that a long-term resolution of the eurozone crisis lies in a fiscal union which would require all economies in the single currency to harmonize their fiscal policies and budgets. The French president would appear to have other plans. How will Merkel’s plans for a fiscal union for the entire eurozone work if even her closest partner has quite different objectives? Both Merkel and Hollande are pragmatists and may square their different priorities. It’s not going to be so easy for the new Greek government to get its way with Germany. For now, a chaotic breakup of the euro has been averted — but perhaps only postponed.

Five things I took for granted while childless It’s been more than two years since my husband and I welcomed our first child into our happy little twosome bubble; close to three years since first finding out that we’d be bringing a life into the world. And although our days of just husband and wife were a mere 750 days ago, I can hardly remember what life was like before my rambunctious, drama queen, mini-me made her way into our home. Seriously, we’re talking a good three or four years that I can barely remember actually happening. I mean, I remember the dating, the proposal, the wedding, but I can’t for the life of me remember what on Earth we did that made our mundane, childless existence seem so busy. I realize some kid-free adults manage to keep their schedule full, but my husband and I were not those adults. But I remember feeling stressed, stressed and busy. Maybe it was the dogs. And now, looking back on these two years of bliss (and who knows how many more we have to come), I can’t help but feel a ping of regret when I think back to the daily activities I took for granted.
Amanda Stewart Troy Daily News Columnist For starters, I miss going to sleep in clean, chocolate almond milk-free, crumb-free sheets. My husband and I weren’t really breakfast-in-bed type folks. In fact, we usually didn’t wake up early enough to eat any kind of meal that qualified as breakfast. That changed drastically when Pearyn made her way into the real world (and our bed for that matter). Now, I’ll feed her a 12-course meal that requires eight sets of silverware in our bed if it means I get an extra 10 minutes of laying in said bed. This seems like a good idea until I go to crawl into my bed at night (usually at 10 p.m. because I’m lame and boring now) and find my legs caked in cereal bar crumbs and my blanket still damp from a leaky cup of choco-

late almond milk. In college, I made the trek from Cleveland to Dayton several times a year. This led to my disdain for car drives lasting longer than one hour. Nowadays, I’ll make a 24-hour road trip as long as I’m childless and can play my loud, not-intended-for-little-ears music. I remember when I was pregnant with Pearyn and would blast twangy country music on the way to work. She would wiggle around and I remember thinking she must have been entertained. Now, considering the only thing we’re permitted to listen to in the car is either endless episodes of Mickey Mouse on the DVD player or some CD full of happy, insipid children’s songs, I’m thinking she actually wasn’t that big of a fan of my music after all. I truly, truly miss being able to go about my day without worrying about today’s youth. Sure, if I saw a child doing something particularly rebellious, I’d shake my head and think “wow, that’s our future,” but that was the extent of my thoughts. I miss feeling young. Sure, I may only be in my late 20s, which
probably won’t qualify me for an AARP card anytime soon, but there is something so mentally and physically draining about being responsible for a little life day in and day out that it makes you feel really, really old. The last thing I miss isn’t even the sleep, my old, pre-baby body or my days of careless freedom. One of the largest activities I took for granted before becoming a parent was the humble chore of eating my food — while it was actually the temperature it was supposed to be. Despite these tiny bumps in the road we’ve faced on our journey to successfully raise a human being, there are so many things our daughter has given us that more than outweigh the few things we might miss every now and then. For all the little things I took for granted before becoming a parent, my daughter reminds me on a daily basis how much more I appreciate the small things now that she’s in my life.

Students suspended in NY bus bullying NEW YORK (AP) — Four seventh-grade boys from upstate New York who were caught on video mercilessly taunting a 68-yearold bus monitor have received their punishment. The school system in the Rochester suburb of Greece says it will suspend the middle school students from school and from using regular bus transportation for a year for bullying Karen Klein. The students will be transferred to a special alternative education program because the district is legally required to give the students an education. Each student will also be
required to complete 50 hours of community service with senior citizens. They will be able to reapply to middle school after their complete the discipline. In a statement, the school system said each of the students involved admitted to wrongdoing, accepted the consequences and agreed to let the district publically release the terms of their disciplinary action. The cellphone video uploaded to YouTube by a fellow student drew millions of viewers. The video shows Klein trying her best to ignore a stream of profanity, insults
and outright threats. One student taunted: "You don't have a family because they all killed themselves because they don't want to be near you." Klein's oldest son killed himself 10 years ago. Eventually, she appears to break down in tears. A fund drive that began with a goal of $5,000 to help Klein take a nice vacation raised more than $667,304 as of Friday. Klein has received national attention through social and news media with interviews such as an appearance earlier this week on NBC's "Today Show."

Famed Crystal Cathedral to become Catholic church GARDEN GROVE, Calif. (AP) — Retired schoolteacher Dolores Rommel has followed the Rev. Robert H. Schuller almost her entire adult life: She was baptized in his church as a young woman, sent her children to his Sunday school and laid her husband to rest near the soaring, glass-paned Crystal Cathedral that was to be the televangelist’s ultimate legacy. But when the Roman Catholic church bought the famous sanctuary and its cemetery in bankruptcy court last year, Rommel began looking for another spiritual home. She has resigned herself to being entombed in a Catholic cemetery so she can be near her husband, but not without plenty of soul-searching. “I have no choice. I am going to be buried there because that was his choice and we paid a lot for that vault,” said Rommel, who bought a two-casket tomb with
her husband in 1997. “At the time, who would know that this was going to happen?” The Crystal Cathedral congregation recently announced that it will vacate its modernist steeland-glass church by June 2013. The Diocese of Orange renamed the church Christ Cathedral earlier this month and plans to turn the Protestant landmark where the “Hour of Power” TV ministry is based into its spiritual and administrative headquarters. The fast-growing, 1.2 million-person diocese bought the church campus for nearly $58 million last year. The upcoming transition has been an emotional one for many longtime congregants like Rommel, who watched Schuller’s blockbuster dynasty struggle to survive in recent years amid declining donations, a disastrous leadership transition and an end-
less family squabble that split the congregation. Schuller built the church an architectural marvel with 10,000 windows and room for nearly 3,000 worshippers and 1,000 musicians in 1980, a decade after he began broadcasting his sermons on the “power of possibility thinking” into the homes of millions of evangelical Christians each Sunday. Reaction to the church’s sale was at first bitter: The children of one prominent philanthropist publicly threatened to disinter their father from its cemetery and another congregant sued for $30 billion, saying the transfer to Catholic hands had “permanently desecrated, defamed, polluted and cursed” the church. Tempers have since cooled, but the recently announced timeline for the transfer to Catholic hands has revived questions about the
program and hasn’t attended church since last fall. His son and daughter, who each failed to assume their father’s mantle, are no longer involved in the ministry. Sheila Schuller Coleman formed a new church after a falling out last year. The congregation, which now numbers up to 1,700 people each Sunday, will also change its name once it moves. “It really needs to go back to square one and say, ‘Who are we going to be? We can’t be what we were 10 to 15 years ago,’” said Kurt Fredrickson, an associate dean and assistant professor of pastoral ministry at Fuller Theological Seminary. “There could be resurrection there or it could be that we say goodbye to a congregation and bless them and be grateful and thank God for years and years and years of really wonderful ministry.”
fate of Schuller’s ministry once it leaves behind the iconic building that gave it its name. The diocese will grant the congregation six months rent-free at a nearby Catholic church and it plans to continue filming the “Hour of Power.” “We could film in a studio,” said John Charles, the new CEO of Crystal Cathedral Ministries. “We’re still going to have the same great preaching, the same great music and pulpit guests. The ministry is not about the building it’s more about our congregation and who we are.” Some, however, wonder whether the ministry will fizzle out or shrink dramatically without the building that gave it its name. Broadcasts of the “Hour of Power” were recently cut back to 30 minutes on Lifetime and Discovery channels and Schuller, now 85, no longer appears on the

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Try activities that do not involve your children Dear Annie: I have been with my husband more than 20 years. We have never been separated, even for a few days. We have stuck it out through the good, the bad and the horrible. We have two boys who are about to graduate high school, and I am wondering how this will affect our relationship. I am scared that he won't find our life together interesting without any kids to keep things active. I worry that the kids have been the knot that has kept us together. Will change split us up? — Patty Dear Patty: It's true that once the kids leave the nest, some couples discover that they have nothing else in common. But most couples use this time to revitalize their marriages and enjoy things they could not do when raising children. This actually can be the best time of your married life. Think of the qualities that first attracted you to your husband. Start cultivating interests that don't involve your kids, but in which you and your husband can participate together: gym memberships, book clubs, community choirs, dance lessons, travel, whatever could be fun for both of you. Plan a romantic vacation. Become members of a local theater troupe. Schedule a cooking class together once a month. And you do not have to do everything together. You and your husband undoubtedly have hobbies you'd like to devote time to now that you can, and they don't have to be joint activities. It's OK to have your own interests. It will give you something to talk about over dinner. Dear Annie: As a father, I was deeply offended by the piece you published on Mother's Day indicating that Mom did all kinds of work while Dad watched TV and then went to bed. The portrayal of fathers as lazy, clueless couch potatoes is antiquated. My wife and I both work full time. I changed as many diapers as did my wife and took my daughter to day care, swimming lessons and soccer practice. I still do all of the grocery shopping, yard work and home repairs, most of the cooking and at least half of the laundry and housecleaning. I am not the only husband who does this. — Burlington, VT Dear Burlington: We were surprised at the number of people who objected to the essay we ran on Mother's Day. Read on: From Redondo Beach, Calif.: I'm a retired ob-gyn. My starter wife had two children from a previous marriage, and we had two of our own. She did not work outside the home, but she had a housekeeper, a gardener and a pool guy, all bought with the income from my medical practice. My income also bought our house, the kitchen in which she made the sandwiches, the food in the freezer and the electricity to keep it running. I bought the clothes in the laundry, the dog, Mom's moisturizer and toothpaste. When I came home, I'd snuggle with the kids and then sit on the couch and watch the evening news while Mom prepared dinner. Occasionally, I'd doze off, and Mom would chastise me, even though my day began at 2 a.m. with a patient. Mississippi: In the future, would you please omit the phrase about Mom putting the cat out? As an animal rights activist, I can tell you that letting pets roam puts them into a plethora of grave dangers. Texas: The headline in my local paper said, "Take time to appreciate all moms." I disagree. It should read MOST moms. My mother abused me throughout my growing years, and I never heard her say anything positive or encouraging. When she attempted the same with my daughters, that was the last straw. Boston: I loved the piece on what the Mom and Dad do before they go to bed. Very amusing, and how true! What about adding one more sentence? Dad says: "I'm going to bed. What do you mean you're not in the mood?"

HINTS FROM HELOISE
Advice from older family members that’s lasted Dear Readers: Here are a few “favorite hints” learned from older family members. Read on, and you might learn something new: Hi, Heloise: My grandfatherin-law lived to be 105 years of age. When he was 90, I asked him what he attributed his longevity to. The answer was: “Never overindulge in any way. Don’t overeat, don’t oversleep, don’t overdrink, don’t smoke more than one cigar a day!” Everything in moderation. — Dorothy in Alexandria, Va. Dear Heloise: During the early days of my marriage, I stopped by my aunt’s house for a casual visit. I left my house with-
Hints from Heloise Columnist out bothering with my hair or makeup. While conversing with my aunt, my uncle softly said my name, adding, “A little powder and a little paint makes a woman look like what she ain’t.” I got the message, and have since made an effort to adhere to that little bit of advice! — R.S., via email Dear Heloise: My grandmoth-
er was born in 1892. She told me this when I was probably 15 years old. She said, “When you apply cream or lotion to your face, apply it to your neck, too.” I have always followed that advice. — Belva in San Antonio These are just a few of the many that came in! If you have a bit of wisdom that has helped you, please send it along, and I’ll print more. Send to: Heloise, P.O. Box 79500, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000; email to: Heloise(at)Heloise.com; or fax to: 210-HELOISE. — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: Terry in Jacksonville, Fla., sent a picture of her gorgeous rescued white ter-
rier mix, Beauty, peeking out from behind the couch with a great big smile on her face! To see Beauty and our other Pet Pals, visit www.Heloise.com and click on “Pets.” — Heloise A WEIGHTY ISSUE Dear Heloise: Some people like to bring their own weights to exercise class. That’s great, if you put them in your trunk on your way there and back. If you have an SUV, you really need to take them out of your car as soon as you can. A 5-pound weight can become a deadly projectile in your car if you have an accident. It can seriously injure or even kill someone! — Sharon in New Jersey

HOROSCOPE Saturday, June 30, 2012 Friends could prove to be a blessing for you in the year ahead, both career-wise and socially. Their input might help you get a better job and/or introduce you to people with whom you’ll become close and who will expose you to many new, fun activities. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — It won’t hurt your image today to admit to not being able to do something. However, it would arouse the ire of others if you pretend to be able to do something that they want to but can’t. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Instead of treating certain fun, competitive activities for what they are — merely games — you might take things seriously and take some foolish risks. Stick to your comfort zone. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Respect the talents and abilities of others, but just because you can’t do some things that others can, don’t credit them with bigger assets than they have. It would unnecessarily make you feel inadequate. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Don’t spread things on too thick, and make sure you have all the facts before you speak up. Persons who usually take you at your word might challenge what you tell them. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — If you find yourself in the position of making a choice between paying off an old obligation and buying something new, you know it would be smarter to rid yourself of debt. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Be careful, because even those who are usually supportive of you might not stand up for you. Plus, your enemies are likely to be more actively working against you than usual. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Make a list of your duties and try to eliminate them one at a time. If you allow things to pile up on you, chances are you will lose your footing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — All it will do is make both parties angry if you allow yourself to get caught in the middle of two warring friends. Stay out of it, no matter whom you think is right or wrong. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Success is possible, but only if you rely more upon yourself and less upon Lady Luck. Unfortunately, when you’ll need her the most, she might be cozying up to your opponent. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Tell it like it is, even if you think it might put you in a bad light in some people’s eyes. If you attempt to color the facts, it could make things far worse in other ways. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You might not be as sharp of a horse trader as the person you’re doing business with, so be extra careful. That individual may be trying to take the whole farm. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Since you do have a natural ability to easily see both sides of an issue, you can’t help but use it. However, if you become too obsessed with weighing and balancing everything, you could be rendered ineffective. COPYRIGHT 2012 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, June 30, the 182nd day of 2012. There are 184 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 30, 1912, Canada’s deadliest tornado on record occurred as a late-afternoon cyclone struck Regina, the provincial capital of Saskatchewan, killing 28 people and destroying or damaging 500 buildings. On this date: • In 1860, the famous Oxford University Museum debate on Darwin’s theory of evolution took place as Anglican Bishop Samuel
Wilberforce led his side in denouncing the concept, while biologist T.H. Huxley defended it. • In 1934, Adolf Hitler carried out his “blood purge” of political and military rivals in Germany in what came to be known as “The Night of the Long Knives.” • In 1936, the epic Civil War novel “Gone with the Wind” by Margaret Mitchell was first published by The Macmillan Co. in New York. • In 1952, “The Guiding Light,” a popular radio program, began a 57-year television run on CBS.
• In 1958, the U.S. Senate passed the Alaska statehood bill by a vote of 64-20. • In 1972, for the first time, a leap-second was added to Coordinated Universal Time to account for the slowing rotation of the for himself. • Today’s Birthdays: Actorcomedian David Alan Grier is 56. Actor Vincent D’Onofrio is 53. Boxer Mike Tyson is 46. Actress Monica Potter is 41. Actor Rick Gonzalez is 33. Actress Lizzy Caplan is 30. Olympic gold medal swimmer Michael Phelps is 27.
Western wildfire leaves behind trail of carnage COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — Firefighters searching for bodies in the nearly 350 homes burned by the most destructive wildfire in Colorado history found a second body Friday at a residence where another person was discovered dead earlier. As crews on the front lines made slow but steady progress against the flames, Police Chief Pete Carey said fewer than 10 people altogether were unaccounted for. The remains of one person were found Thursday in what was left standing of one home. He confirmed that the remains of a second person who lived there were found Friday. The 26-square-mile blaze — one of several wildfires burning out of control across the tinderdry West — was reported to be 25 percent contained, and authorities began lifting some of the evacuation orders for the more than 30,000 people who fled their homes a few days ago. After growing explosively earlier in the week, the fire gained no ground
AP
A firefighter from King Canyon National Park in California walks through a burned-out area of Colorado Springs, Colo., Friday. After declaring a "major disaster" in the state early Friday and promising federal aid, President Barack Obama got a firsthand view of the wildfires and their toll on residential communities. More than 30,000 people have been evacuated in what is now the most destructive wildfire in state history. overnight, authorities reported Friday. And the weather was clear and mostly calm, a welcome break from the lightning and high wind that drove the flames.

"The focus for today is to hold what we got," extend the fire lines to contain more of the blaze, and bring in more heavy equipment, said Rich Harvey, incident commander for the fire. Exhausted firefighters fresh off the front lines described the devastation in some neighborhoods and the challenges of battling such a huge blaze. "It looks like hell. I would imagine it felt like a nuclear bomb went off. There was fire everywhere. Everything had a square shape to it because it was foundations," said Rich Rexach, who had been working 12-hour days since Tuesday, when flames swept through neighborhoods in this city of more than 400,000 people 60 miles south of Denver. "Everything you put water on, it was just swallowing it," he said. President Barack Obama toured the stricken areas Friday after issuing
a disaster declaration for Colorado that frees up federal funds. He thanked firefighters and other emergency workers, saying: "The country is grateful for your work. The country's got your back." As residents waited anxiously to see what was left of their homes, police reported several burglaries in evacuated areas, along with break-ins of cars packed with evacuees' possessions outside hotels. Carey said Friday a person wearing protective fire gear in an evacuated area was arrested on charges of impersonating a firefighter and influencing a public official. "We were able to stop him and identify that person as somebody that probably wasn't someone who belonged on that scene," Carey said. He didn't have the person's name. Earlier this month, a man was arrested on suspicion of impersonating a firefighter at a different
blaze in northern Colorado. Community leaders began notifying residents Thursday that their homes were destroyed. Lists of the heavily damaged streets were posted at a high school, and residents scanned the sheets, but for many, the notification was a formality. They had already recognized their streets on the aerial pictures that appeared in the news. "The blanket that was on my bed when I grew up, a bunch of things my mother had made," said Rick Spraycar, listing what he lost when his house in the hard-hit Mountain Shadows subdivision burned down. "It's hard to put it into words. Everything I owned. Memories." For Ernie Storti the pain of knowing that his was one of a handful of homes spared in his neighborhood was hard. "Our home was standing, and everything south
of us was gone," he said as tears streamed down his face outside a Red Cross Shelter where he had met with insurance agents. Authorities were still trying to figure out what caused the fire. They said conditions were too dangerous to allow them in to start their investigation. More than 1,000 personnel and six helicopters were fighting the fire. All eight Air Force firefighting planes from four states will be at Colorado Springs' Peterson Air Force Base Saturday and available to fight the fire, marking the first time the entire fleet has been activated since 2008, Col. Jerry Champlin said. Among the fires elsewhere in the West: • At least 60 homes near Pocatello, Idaho, burned in a fast-moving wildfire that started Thursday evening. The blaze covered more than 15 square miles. Officials said it was human-caused but gave no details. • A 70-square-mile wildfire in Utah destroyed at least 160 structures, more than 50 of them primary homes. Another blaze in Utah doubled in size to 70 square miles and was threatening about 75 structures. And a wildfire that erupted Friday in a foothills community near Salt Lake City destroyed at least two homes and was threatening 200 others. Blazes also burned in Wyoming and Montana. Authorities battling six wildfires in Utah said Colorado was taking most of the available fire crews, leaving them short-handed. Fire commander Cheto Olais said leaders at one Utah blaze had requested about 200 additional firefighters but will probably get no more than 20. "A lot of assets are going to Colorado," Olais said.

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

Post 43 heats up late in 9-5 win Troy blisters basepaths, rallies from three down to top Zanesville Staff Reports
ATHENS
Defensive miscues hurt Troy early. Speed got Post 43 back into the game, and two big hits in the team’s final turn at-bat did the rest. Troy (23-11) stole eight bases in a span of three innings Friday to begin its run in the Athens Fourth of July Tournament, coming back from an early 3-0 deficit to win 9-5 over Zanesville. With the score tied 5-5 in the bottom of the sixth inning, Post 43 loaded the bases with two outs, and D.J. Hemm and
Michael Seagraves hit back-toback doubles that brought in four runs to win it. “We’ve been playing pretty tight here lately,” Troy coach Frosty Brown said. “We have a lot of nagging injuries that we’re trying to play around. And with a heat index here of about 113 degrees, it was pretty bad out.” Which actually suited Troy just fine, as Zanesville had played a game earlier in the day. “We decided to throw some heat at them since they were
tired and hot,” Brown said. “(Starting pitcher) Steven (Blei) was throwing pretty hard, then we brought Alex Smith in to close it out. “We took advantage of them as much as we could.” Which included three stolen bases in the bottom of the third, and RBI singles by Dylan Cascaden and Nick Antonides closed the gap to 3-2. Troy tied the score the next inning after a Michael Fellers RBI single, and Fellers scored on a double steal to give Troy a one-run lead. Post 43 got an insurance run on an error in the fifth, but Zanesville tied it at 5-5 in the

Orioles outlast Indians BALTIMORE (AP) — Ryan Flaherty singled in the tiebreaking run in the seventh inning, Matt Wieters hit a three-run homer, and the Baltimore Orioles broke out of their scoring funk with a 9-8 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Friday night. On a steamy night in which temperatures reached 100 degrees, both teams worked up a sweat circling the bases. Cleveland had a season-high 16 hits, but the Orioles scored just enough runs to secure their third win in 10 games. Chris Davis started the seventh-inning uprising with a two-out single off Joe Smith (52). After Wieters walked, Flaherty delivered an RBI single to right. Xavier Avery hit his first major league homer in the eighth to make it 9-7.

WIMBLEDON, England (AP) — A day after Rafael Nadal's stunning exit at Wimbledon, the only other men who have won the tournament since 2003 — six-time champion Roger Federer and defending champion Novak Djokovic — found themselves trailing far-lessaccomplished opponents, too. Here we go again? Not quite. Federer sure came close to following Nadal out the door, though. The owner of a record 16 major trophies, and a quarterfinalist or better at 32 consecutive Grand Slam tournaments, the third-seeded Federer dropped the first two sets against 29th-seeded Julien Benneteau of France, then was two points away from losing six times, before coming all the way back Friday to pull out a 4-6, 67 (3), 6-2, 7-6 (6), 6-1 victory in the third round. "Oh, my God, it was brutal," Federer said. "The thing, when you're down two sets to love, is to stay calm, even though it's hard, because people are freaking out, people are worried for

Scott: Waiters plays like D-Wade INDEPENDENCE (AP) — Byron Scott saw the similarities the first time he watched Dion Waiters play for Syracuse. The fearlessness. The explosiveness. The solid build. The killer instinct. "The first thing that came to my mind was Dwyane Wade," Scott said. But the Cavaliers coach wanted to make sure his eyes weren't deceiving him, that there were no tricks in the tape. So he viewed another 15 or so games, dissecting every aspect of Waiters' game. It was only then that he felt content with his conclusion. "I kept coming back to the same thought," Scott said. "The kid is good." With Scott's blessing and insistence, the Cavaliers selected Waiters with the No. 4 pick in Thursday night's NBA draft, giving them a backcourt partner for reigning rookie of the year Kyrie Irving and another player capable of making big plays in crunch time. The Cavs may have stunned some of their fans by taking Waiters, who rose from the Big East's best sixth man, up the draft board and became the fourth player taken in what was considered a deep draft. Despite rumors they were more interested in others, Scott said Waiters was always Cleveland's top tar-

Rookies warned of pitfalls BEREA (AP) — His gray T-shirt soaked with sweat, Justin Blackmon sat at a picnic table following lunch and waited to make a final catch for Brandon Weeden, his former Oklahoma State teammate now with the Browns. The trigger man for one of college football's most dynamic pass-and-catch combinations, Weeden made a handoff, sliding an ice cream sandwich in front of Blackmon, who leaned back and smiled. On a muggy Friday Blackmon, morning, Weeden and other firstyear AFC players participated in a youth football clinic as part of the NFL's weeklong rookie symposium, a comprehensive orientation program to ease their transition into professional life. The chance to run
around with kids was a welcomed break for the players, who have spent the past few days inside conference rooms listening to former players like Terrell Owens and Adam Jones warn them about controlling their finances, guarding their privacy and not making mistakes in their personal lives. For Blackmon, it's more about not making another one. Now with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Blackmon was arrested earlier this month on a drunken driving charge in Stillwater, Okla. It was his second alcohol-related offense in three years and an early misstep he regrets and hopes to never repeat. The first-round draft pick's blood alcohol content was allegedly three times over the legal limit. He pleaded not guilty to a DUI
misdemeanor and his next court date is July 24, three days before the Jaguars open training camp. There's nothing he can do about it now other than move forward and repair his tarnished image. "I'm past it," said Blackmon, who faces a possible suspension. "My team is behind me and that's all that really matters to me." Blackmon's criminal situation, and other legal matters involving young players, is one of the main reasons the league has been gathering its rookies for the past 15 summers to educate them on how a poor decision can adversely affect their careers. This week, the players have heard testimony from explayers who have gone bankrupt, had marriages crumble and battled addictions. They've been told there
is an acceptable standard and they must rise to meet it. It's been an eye-opener for many. "What I've gotten out of it is to use the resources that the NFL has for you," Blackmon said. "There are a lot of people out there that are there to help you get through the transition into the NFL, and just use them instead of just trying to do it yourself." Detroit defensive Nick Fairley is heeding that advice. A first-round draft pick from Auburn in 2011, Fairley has been arrested twice in recent months for charges ranging from reckless driving to marijuana possession to driving under the influence and attempting to elude police in Alabama. On Thursday, Fairley pleaded not guilty to several charges through his attorney.

Waiters and North Carolina center Tyler Zeller, taken by the Cavs with the No. 17 pick after they traded three picks — No. 24 overall and two in the second round — to Dallas to move up, were introduced together on Friday at Cleveland Clinic Courts, the club's suburban training complex where the team hosted dozens of players for predraft workouts. However, it was the first visit to the splendid facility
for Waiters and Zeller. Cleveland's front office didn't feel the need to bring them to show their skills after doing exhaustive research on both players during their final college seasons. The Cavs knew what they wanted, and they went out and got two players they believe can help get them back to contention. "We felt really comfortable that these were the two right decisions for our organization," general manager Chris Grant said. "What they both bring to the team, what we know about them as people, with all the background we did, made us feel comfortable."

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 of the third set, I was not as good as I was in the first two sets, and in 5 minutes, it's 4-0." Actually, that took about 10 minutes. Still, it hardly was the last key moment. With Federer serving while down 6-5 in the fourth set, Benneteau hit a forehand winner to get to 15-30, putting him two points from the upset. Federer hit a forehand winner that made it 30-all, still two points away for Benneteau. The game had two deuces, too — each one placing Benneteau that close again. But Federer held there, the crowd roaring with each point he won. "I appreciate their support for so many years out here," Federer said. "Tonight was special."
In the tiebreaker, Federer was two points from being gone at 5-all, then 6-all. But on the latter, a nine-stroke exchange ended with Benneteau netting a backhand. That gave Federer his second set point — he already had wasted three others in the second set — and a powerful forehand forced a Benneteau forehand error. Federer jogged to his chair, showered with a standing ovation. That was the beginning of the end for Benneteau, and it allowed Federer to avoid the sort of surprise that befell the second-seeded Nadal, whose five-set loss Thursday night to the 100th-ranked and previously unknown Lukas Rosol was still reverberating around the All England Club.

Matt Kenseth has kept his name out of the rumor mill for most of his NASCAR career. When it finally popped up, it was a bombshell: The Sprint Cup Series points leader was planning his departure from Roush Fenway Racing. Kenseth said Wednesday that he has a new deal already in place for 2013, and although he said he’s not ready to announce it, all signs point to a move to Joe Gibbs Racing. He laughed when asked how he went from being a guy nobody even mentioned in freeagent discussions to one of the biggest movers in many years.

Asked about the opressive heat, Buescher tried hard not to smirk. “I’m from Texas,” he said, hesitating for emphasis. “I mowed my grass yesterday and it was 103. I like to say I’m ready for the heat all summer long.” Buescher, who started the night fourth in the season standings, took the lead in his Turner Motorsports Chevrolet for the first time just 27 laps into the 150-circuit race and dominated the rest of the way.

Rookie dominates Pole-sitting Dillon cruises to Nationwide win SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Pole-sitter Austin Dillon, driving the legendary No. 3 car, led most of the final 113 laps to win the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Kentucky Speedway on Friday night. The No. 3, of course, was driven to fame by Dale Earnhardt before his death on the track at the 2001 Daytona 500. Richard Childress was the team owner for Earnhardt, and is also the grandfather and team owner for Dillon. As Dillon was clinching the win, his grandfather said over the radio, "Dale would have been proud of that." It was the first Nationwide victory for Dillon, a rookie who captured the Truck Series title a year ago. Dillon, who led for 192 of the 200 laps, had asked to drive the No. 3 car, which is appearing in competition for the first time
since Earnhardt's death. The 22-year-old native of Lewisville, N.C., also took over the series lead with the victory. He came into the night just a point back of leader Elliott Sadler after seven top-five finishes: five fifths and two fourths. Sprint Cup driver Kurt Busch was a distant second, 9.828 seconds back. Third was another Cup driver and the No. 2 qualifier, Kevin Harvick, followed by Michael Annett and Justin Allgaier. "Austin Dillon, he was just in his own zip code," Busch said. Harvick, who took over Earnhardt's Sprint Cup ride after Earnhardt's death, said he admired what he had seen out of the young Dillon. "I'm proud to see Austin and those guys get their first win," he said. "He works hard to make himself better and he's a good
kid." Asked what he thought of seeing the No. 3 car returning to victory lane, Harvick said, "I'm sure it's important to Richard and his family. Richard started with the 3. He and Dale had a lot of success with the 3. So I'm sure it's important to them." The race was contested in ideal conditions after gusting winds earlier delayed qualifying for the Cup Series. Rounding out the top 10 were Sam Hornish Jr., Brad Keselowski, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Sadler and James Buescher, who won the Truck Series race on Thursday night. Keselowski won the Nationwide event a year ago in Kentucky. "I envy his first win," said Danica Patrick, who finished 12th. The series returns to Kentucky in September for the Kentucky 300.
SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Jimmie Johnson thought somebody had traded paint with his motorhome. Nope, that was just the wind. The five-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion took advantage of those gusts to grab the pole, edging defending champion Kyle Busch for the top spot at Kentucky Speedway on Friday night. But first Johnson had a scary moment. "I was sitting in my motorhome, watching qualifying on television and the bus started shaking real bad," he said. "TV was a little behind and they weren't talking about the winds, so for a minute I thought somebody backed into us." He soon found out that it wasn't an errant driver, but rather the powerful wind that briefly suspended qualifying. "I opened the door to look out and when I did the wind almost took the door off of the hinges," he said. "I said, 'OK, I see what's going on now.'" It was Johnson's first pole-winning run since September 2010 at Dover. "I've had a lot of seconds and there is nothing more frustrating than a close second in qualifying," he said after posting a top speed of 181.818 mph and a lap time of 29.700 seconds. "But today went really well and I think we've got a good race car in race trim as well." The freakish windstorm — only a few spatters of rain fell from a slate-gray sky — only put the brakes on qualifying for a short time. But when the cars returned, the temperature on the track had plummeted from around 140 degrees. "It's amazing with the 30- to 40-degree drop that we had how much more grip there was in the track," said Johnson, who is fourth in the Sprint Cup standings so far this season. "But when it comes to qualifying you just have to lay it on the line and hope it works." Busch, the last car on the track, just missed the pole at 181.421 mph. "We're starting up front, which is good for us," he said. "I typically don't qualify well, but this is a place where we know what we have to do."
Defending champ Kyle Busch has good feeling SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — After struggling in his last four starts, Kyle Busch is hoping he has found the perfect tonic in Bourbon country. Busch is the defending champion at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series this weekend at Kentucky Speedway. Getting back to a track where he's had some success — he won the Truck race and finished third in the Nationwide event a year ago as well — comes at just the right time. "It was a great race for us
last year," he said Friday just before taking the track for a weather-plagued qualifying session. "I feel good about it again this year. I feel like we're right where we left off." The thing is, Busch and his Toyota have not been running very well. The 27-year-old from Las Vegas has had a season of highs and lows. He won at Richmond and then finished second at Talladega, fourth at Darlington and third at Charlotte in consecutive starts. Since then, he's had three
blown engines and has finished 29th, 30th, 32nd and 17th. Last week at the race in Sonoma, Denny Hamlin's car spun out and tangled with Busch's, damaging the front end of the car. That caused him to limp around the road course the rest of the race. What's particularly frustrating is that the engine problems seem to be something different each time. "The engine failures that we've had, it's a little disheartening," he said. "It sets us back a little bit, but we
can only do what we can do to work harder. Having three different issues, whether that's better or worse — I don't think any engine issue is good. But those guys (on the crew) are working hard and trying to run through everything and figure out what's been going on." Busch finds himself 12th in the Cup standings and a distant 137 points behind series leader Matt Kenseth. He's well aware he can't continue to have problems if he hopes to make the 12-driver Chase for the Sprint Cup
championship field. "I'm just hoping that we work as hard as we can and run as hard as we can and we get good finishes," he said. "Right now there's nothing to worry about — we're either going to be in or we're out. We've just got to work as hard as we can to control our own destiny and get the finishes we need to get ourselves back in the top 10. Or we've got to be good enough to win one or two more races and guarantee ourselves a spot with a wildcard berth."
