24 dead in Cairo riots Worst outburst in Egypt since Mubarak’s ouster
Small towns fret flooding effects
CAIRO (AP) — Flames lit up downtown Cairo, where massive clashes raged Sunday, drawing Christians angry over a recent church attack, Muslims and Egyptian security forces. At least 24 people were killed and more than 200 injured in the worst sectarian violence since the uprising
that ousted Hosni Mubarak in February. The rioting lasted late into the night, bringing out a deployment of more than 1,000 security forces and armored vehicles to defend the state television building along the Nile, where the trouble began. The military clamped a curfew on
the area until 7 a.m. The clashes spread to nearby Tahrir Square, drawing thousands of people to the vast plaza that served as the epicenter of the protests that ousted Mubarak. On Sunday night, they battled each other with rocks and firebombs, some tearing up pavement for
ammunition and others collecting stones in boxes. At one point, an armored security van sped into the crowd, striking a half-dozen protesters and throwing some into the air. Protesters retaliated by setting fire to military vehicles, a bus and private cars, sending flames rising into the night sky.
Tami Brown could only watch helplessly from her minivan parked on higher ground about 100 yards from home as she watched water from the Loyalsock Creek lap into her driveway. With the road closed, Brown couldn’t immediately view the damage to her single-family house. But the devastation she saw when she finally returned days later was enough for the mother of three to decide against returning to the idyllic, rural central Pennsylvania community she loved.

The barbs already were flying. Come Sunday, the Milwaukee Brewers bashed the St. Louis Cardinals with their bats. Needing a rally in the NL championship series opener, Milwaukee turned to its power duo of Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder, then got a clutch hit from Yuniesky Betancourt to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 9-6.

Troy native William Draven will offer a pair of magic shows Sunday at the Mayflower Theater in Troy.
INSIDE TODAY
Troy native now living and performing in Los Angeles will hammer a spike into his skull and lay on a bed of nails at the Mayflower Theater. “Magic Macabre” with William Draven offers two shows Sunday. Draven will perform two completely different shows, an hour-long show of magic at 3 p.m. and a large Las Vegas-style event at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the matinee are $10, and tickets for the evening performance are $20. The show is a fundraiser for Troy’s Channel 5, as Draven is not profiting from the events. “Both shows will entail feats of super human endurance and mindover-matter demonstrations,” Draven said. While on stage, he will drive a

Audience participation will be a part of both shows as Draven attempts to perform a live human lie detector test on a willing participant simply by reading body language. He’ll also perform card tricks and general magic. Space permitting, he’ll bring out his bullwhip and knock targets out of people’s hands — blindfolded. The evening show will include three acts, starting with a talented young magician. Kaleb Kenyon, of Dayton, 14, is the youngest magician to tour with FreakShow Deluxe, a carnival-style sideshow out of Hollywood.

Union-law opponents spending more on ads
COLUMBUS (AP) — An analysis shows that oppoComplete weather nents of Ohio’s contentious information on Page 8. new collective bargaining law appear to be outspendHome Delivery: ing its supporters when it 335-5634 comes to television ads. Classified Advertising: The Ohio Newspaper (877) 844-8385 Organization, a collective of Ohio’s eight largest newspapers, reported that the union-backed opposi6 74825 22406 6 tion group We Are Ohio
appears to be outspending business and Republicansupported Building a Better Ohio by a 5-2 ratio. The collective cites files kept by 17 TV stations across the state. Through Oct. 13, the opposition group paid out $1.92 million for television ads in five of Ohio’s largest market Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland and
Youngstown. In that same time, the group backing the law spent $741,000. Another group, Make Ohio Great which is funded by the Republican Governors Association bought $441,000 of ad time in those same markets. Their ads feature Gov. John Kasich advocating for “reasonable reforms,” but do not specifically reference
the fight over the collective bargaining law. The law in question limits collective bargaining rights for 350,000 Ohio public workers. It outlaws strikes by state workers, institutes a merit pay system, requires workers to pay at least 15 percent of their health care premiums

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney faced relentless criticism four years ago for changing his positions on abortion and gay rights a n d equivocating on o t h e r issues, including immigration and gun control. This ROMNEY year, the former Massachusetts governor has largely escaped such attacks as he competes again for the Republican presidential nomination. That might be changing. Among his rivals, Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann have started to assail him for being wobbly on the issues. “For some candidates, pro-life is an election-year slogan to follow the prevailing political winds,” Perry told social conservatives recently. And Bachmann said: “You won’t find YouTube clips of me speaking in support of Roe versus Wade. You won’t find me equivocating or hemming or hawing when I’m asked to define marriage as between one man and one woman.” Neither mentioned Romney by name but the comments, three months before primary voting begins, were obviously aimed at him. The remarks signaled the likely start of a new phase in the GOP nomination fight as his opponents look to derail the failed 2008 candidate, who sits atop national opinion polls and on a mound of campaign cash while shoring up support among the party’s establishment. In this race, Romney has tightly tied his message to the economy, arguing that his business background makes him the most qualified Republican to challenge President Barack Obama next fall.

After the investigation, the audience will be invited back to the Mayflower for a theatrical reproduction of a Victorian-style seance. “We will be attempting to contact the spirits of Troy to entice them to come forward and speak to us,” Draven said. During the seance, a bell will be placed on a table and Draven will ask the ghosts to ring it in response to questions from him and the audience. Draven hopes to contact two spirits known to haunt Troy. One is a man named William, the son of a doctor who had an office above the current Around About Books in the late 1800s or early 1900s. He was tragically mangled in a horse and carriage accident, Draven said. The other spirit is that of the only man ever hanged in Troy. He murdered his wife in the late 1800s and was hanged in front of the courthouse in a portable gallows brought in from Dayton, Draven said. This is the second year Draven, a 1999 graduate of Troy High School, has done a show in his hometown. He said last year’s show brought up some misconceptions about what was
involved, but he assured all of that has been cleared up and he is excited about the upcoming performance. “I’m excited to have the opportunity to come back … to perform in Troy again,” Draven said. “This is going to be an amazing show and I think Troy is going to see something that they’ve never seen before.” After growing up in Troy, Draven, whose real name is Wayne Phelps, moved to Los Angeles where he still lives and works as a character actor for Universal Studios Hollywood. He is staying in Troy throughout the Halloween season while he’s performing at Land of Illusion. “It’s really nice to come back (to Troy) and see how much my little town has changed,” he said. His family still resides in the area; his brother Charles Phelps is Troy’s chief of police. Draven has always known what he wanted to do with his life. His earliest memory is watching David Copperfield make the Statue of Liberty vanish on television in 1983. “I saw that as a young boy — I was 2 1/2 years old — and I knew I wanted to do that. I’ve been doing magic longer than I’ve been out of diapers,” he said, remembering the magic kit Santa Claus

brought him one year. “As a toddler, I probably wasn’t doing the best of magic,” he admitted, “But what it did was establish an interest, which later became a hobby, which became a passion, which turned into a career.” Draven has taught himself many of his skills through books and videos, but he’s also had several mentors, some of whom are considered the best in the business. As a teenager, he volunteered his time at Dave’s Balloons and Magic in Troy. The shop is no longer in business, but Draven has fond memories of learning the basics of magic and slight-of-hand tricks from its owner David Johnson. “He really nurtured and guided my growth in magic,” Draven said. He learned all his sideshow stunts and bullwhip skills from Aye Jaye, a magician who has performed for presidents and celebrities and was one of the original Ronald McDonald’s, dedicating much of his career to training future Ronalds. Draven’s business mentor was and still is Paul Draper, a famous Las Vegas mentalist. The performer is currently studying under Luna Shimada, daughter of Haruo Shimada, the
first magician to bring doves into his act. An illusionists training is never done, and Draven said he’s always learning new things. “There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t have a coin in my pocket or a deck of cards up my sleeve,” he said. Draven hopes to accomplish two things with his shows in Troy. “My first goal is a message to every single person in Troy, Ohio, whether you are in school or doing the 9 to 5, and that is that dreams come true. Don’t let anyone control what you think you can do. Go out there and make it happen. If I can do it, so can you,” he said. His second goal? For you to simply enjoy the show. “Broaden your mind and understand there are forces and powers and things out there that are phenomenal if you just accept it, open your mind to it and not be afraid to experience it,” he said. “The only reason we are afraid of something is we do not understand it, so experience it as much as you can.” Tickets for both performances are available at Around About Books, 8 W. Main St. For more information on Draven, visit www.williamdraven.com or www.facebook.com/williamdraven.

Ads • CONTINUED FROM A1 and 10 percent of their wages toward their pensions, eliminates seniority as the only factor in determining who gets laid off and prohibits bargaining on issues such as grievances, promotions and minimum staffing rules. Voters will choose whether to repeal it in November. Television stations are required by law to disclose advertising paid for by candidate campaigns, but not for ballot issues, such as the repeal effort. The newspaper collective reported that four stations opted not to disclose ad buys, while 17 did. Akron and Toledo markets are not included and the Columbus and Cleveland markets are only partially represented in the numbers obtained by the Ohio
Newspaper Organization. We Are Ohio said it is also tracking TV ad time purchased in all Ohio media markets. Their numbers show a total of $9.4 million spent so far: $5.4 by We Are Ohio in opposition of the collective bargaining law, $2.8 million by Building a Better Ohio in support and $1.2 million by Make Ohio Great. “We are spending a significant amount of money on the airwaves,” We are Ohio spokeswoman Melissa Fazekas said. “But we do think we’ll be outspent at the end of the day. Jason Mauk, spokesman for Building a Better Ohio, said he also expects his side to be outspent, but it’s the group’s policy not to discuss strategy, so he wouldn’t comment on the extent of their ad purchasing.
Romney • CONTINUED FROM A1 He’s avoided the issues that tripped up his last campaign. And his rivals have let him, at least until now. Their attempts to raise such issues have been tepid and tentative. He seems prepared to take it harder on the chin if it comes to that. He’s already casting his shifts as the hallmark of a good businessman. “In the private sector, if you don’t change your view when the facts change, well
you’ll get fired for being stubborn and stupid,” Romney said last month in New Hampshire. A week earlier, he said Americans “can tell when people are being phony and are pandering to an audience, and you’ll see that in politics. You’re not going to see that in my campaign.” In 2008, Romney ran to the right of the eventual nominee, Sen. John McCain, casting himself as a rockribbed conservative on cultural issues even though he had through the years
reversed his positions on such topics, priorities for religious Republicans who make up an important part of the GOP base. His Mormon faith also dogged him with evangelicals, many of whom do not believe that Mormons are Christian. His 2008 opponents, who didn’t hide their disdain for Romney, largely kept their distance on the faith issue, but they didn’t hold back on his position shifts and successfully tagged him as a flip-flopper.
• CONTINUED FROM A1 After midnight, mobs roamed downtown streets, attacking cars they suspected had Christian passengers. In many areas, there was no visible police or army presence to confront or stop them. Christians, who make up about 10 percent of Egypt’s 80 million people, blame the country’s ruling military council for being too lenient on those behind a spate of anti-Christian attacks since Mubarak’s ouster. As Egypt undergoes a chaotic power transition and security vacuum in the wake of the uprising, the Coptic Christian minority is particularly worried about the show of force by ultraconservative Islamists. Prime Minister Essam Sharaf, addressing the nation in a televised speech, said the violence threatened to throw Egypt’s postMubarak transition off course. “These events have taken us back several steps,” he said. “Instead of moving forward to build a modern state on democratic principles we are back to seeking stability and searching for hidden hands domestic and foreign that meddle with the country’s security and safety.” “I call on Egyptian people, Muslims and Christians, women and children, young men and elders to hold their unity,” Sharaf said. The Christian protesters said their demonstration began as a peaceful attempt to sit in at the television building. But then, they said, they came under attack by
thugs in plainclothes who rained stones down on them and fired pellets. “The protest was peaceful. We wanted to hold a sitin, as usual,” said Essam Khalili, a protester wearing a white shirt with a cross on it. “Thugs attacked us and a military vehicle jumped over a sidewalk and ran over at least 10 people. I saw them.” Wael Roufail, another protester, corroborated the account. “I saw the vehicle running over the protesters. Then they opened fired at us,” he said. Khalili said protesters set fire to army vehicles when they saw them hitting the protesters. Ahmed Yahia, a Muslim resident who lives near the TV building, said he saw the military vehicle plow into protesters. “I saw a man’s head split into two halves and a second body flattened when the armored vehicle ran over it. When some Muslims saw the blood they the Christians joined against the army,” he said. Television footage showed the military vehicle slamming into the crowd. Coptic protesters were shown attacking a soldier, while a priest tried to protect him. One soldier collapsed in tears as ambulances rushed to the scene to take away the injured. At least 24 people were killed in the clashes, Health Ministry official Hisham Sheiha said on state TV. State media reported that Egypt’s interim Cabinet was holding an emergency session to discuss the situation.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Rochester (N.Y.) Democrat and Chronicle on taxing the wealthy. Frankly, it’s preposterous the notion being pushed by some Republicans that President Obama’s proposed “millionaire’s tax” amounts to “class warfare.” The facts speak otherwise. Actually, unless the nation’s wealthiest sacrifice more for public good, the divide between the haves and have-nots will become even greater. Such a widening gulf can lead to bona fide class warfare not unlike that seen this year in Arab countries. Already there are signs of increased class strife as evidenced by Wall Street protests. It’s not as if the well-to-do in this country aren’t contributing. In fact, they pay more than 70 percent of federal income taxes. Those earning more than $1 million pay an average of 29.1 percent of their income in federal taxes compared to 15 percent for $50,000 to $75,000 wage earners. And workers making less pay as low as 5.7 percent of their income in federal taxes. So doesn’t this underscore Republicans’ contention that the rich are being picked on unfairly?

However, in addition to fundamental reforms debt-laden rich countries require for the global recovery to thrive, China needs to rapidly transform its model to pursue greener and more sustainable growth. The latest call by Premier Wen Jiabao for local governments to be aware of the “extreme significance and urgency” of the task of energy conservation and emissions reduction was thus more than necessary. China met its target to cut energy intensity, or units of energy used per unit of GDP, by nearly 20 percent from 2006 to 2010. It had nonetheless managed to register average annual economic growth of 11.2 percent with a yearly rise in energy consumption of only 6.6 percent in the five years. However, the authorities realize that the situation remains serious. The country’s huge and growing appetite for energy means higher efficiency is badly needed not only to enhance energy security but also to help the world to deal with climate change. Hence, the country aims to reduce energy intensity by 16 percent by 2015 while slashing 17 percent from the 2010 level of carbon dioxide emissions by 2015. Fast growth may be needed to cushion local economies against the many difficulties and uncertainties that the global slowdown has brought about. But the lesson that China should learn from the current global crisis is that it can no longer pursue investment-and-export-led growth at any cost.

DOONESBURY
Columbus Day just isn’t what it used to be Back when I was a kid – this was shortly after Columbus “discovered” America in 1492 – Columbus Day was a big thing. I seem to remember getting off school that day. Banks and various other businesses would close. Everybody thought Old Chris was a pretty good guy. Then it all started to change. It started with Leif Ericson. Leif was a Norseman who apparently made it to North America centuries before Columbus set sail. Some people say he didn’t really make it here at all, since he called the place he discovered “Vinland” and northern Canada is a little bit short on grape vines. But these were the same guys who named Iceland and Greenland — they weren’t so good with making names match places. Somehow, Leif’s story got lost over the years, or else the capital of Ohio might be Ericson instead of Columbus. As time went on, all kinds of other people started claiming they even beat Ericson. There were stories about Irishmen get here first, or Basques, or even Chinese. No one really knows for sure who was first, but it sure looks like it wasn’t Columbus. Then there was the flat Earth
David Lindeman Troy Daily News Columnist thing. We always were told that just about everyone back then thought the Earth was flat and were scared they might sail off the edge, while Columbus said it was round and set off to prove it. As it turns out, most educated people had accepted the round Earth idea long before Columbus and he wasn’t out to prove anything, other than that he could make big bucks by sneaking up on China from the back side. About the only other thing they told us about Columbus was that Queen Isabella hocked her jewels to finance the trip (she didn’t), that the ships were the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria (true) and that Columbus made four trips in all to the New World (also true). What they didn’t tell us was
— Ken Siler City of Troy Director of Recreation
that Columbus’ main motivation, as was the motivation of the Spanish in general at the time, was to find a way to become as rich as possible. This might not sound so noble, but it’s hardly any different than the way we do things today. Unfortunately, Columbus was involved in all kinds of very nasty things in his quest for cash. He enslaved Indians, killed a bunch of them, and eventually was sent back to Spain in chains. The rest of his life was spent in court, trying to convince the Spanish government that it owed him money for his efforts. He never did admit that he hadn’t made it to Asia even though there was a startling lack of Chinese and Japanese food where he landed. Columbus’ bad treatment of the natives has hurt his reputation in recent years. Rather than being seen as a courageous and Godfearing explorer as he was when I was young, he is now seen as the first in a long line of greedy and violent imperialists who believed in genocide. He’s been so reviled that hardly anyone takes Columbus Day off anymore, except for the post office and some government offices, and they’ll use
any excuse they can to take off just about every Monday anyway, so that hardly counts. It’s a little bit sad when your old heroes are brought back to reality, but I think Columbus’ reputation probably has hit bottom and will start back up at least part way soon. After all, no matter what else he was, he was one brave dude who set out to go where no man had gone before — except for all the people already living here and maybe Leif Ericson. Sure, he had his faults, but if you think of him as a risk taker who was motivated at last partially by greed and who spent much of his life fighting legal battles, why, he doesn’t sound any different than the celebrities today who run corporations or star in movies or play professional sports. Maybe Chris just needed some better PR people. No matter what you think of him, you have to admit his voyage did change the world like few other events before or since. Besides, Columbus, Ohio, sounds way better than Ericson, Ohio. David Lindeman appears every other Monday in the Troy Daily News

Famed pianist Roger Williams dies at 87 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Roger Williams, the virtuoso pianist who topped the Billboard pop charts in the 1950s and played for nine U.S. presidents during a long career, died Saturday. He was 87. Williams died at his home in Los Angeles of complications from pancreatic cancer, according to his former publicist, Rob Wilcox. Known as an electrifying stage performer and an adept improviser, Williams effortlessly switched between musical styles. “Roger was one of the greatest pianists in the world and could play anything from classical music to jazz. He was one of the greatest personalities I’ve ever known,” said Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, a longtime friend of Williams and himself a musician. “He could touch any audience, from teenagers to senior citizens.” Williams’ 1955 hit “Autumn Leaves” was the only piano instrumental to reach number one on the Billboard pop charts. It remains the best-selling piano record of all time, with more than 2 million sold. Nicknamed the “pianist to the presidents,” Williams played for every commander in chief from Harry Truman to George H.W. Bush. His last trip to the White House was in 2008, when he performed at a luncheon for then-first lady Laura Bush. Williams was good friends with Jimmy Carter, with whom he shared a birthday. When the two men turned 80, Williams played a 12-hour marathon at the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum in Atlanta, with the former president in attendance. Born Louis Wertz in Nebraska, Williams started playing piano at age 3. By age 9 he was prolific with several instruments and could play anything by ear. “I had a piano teacher growing up who would never play a song for me, she would make me play it from sheet music so I could learn to read music,” Williams said, according to biographical information provided by Wilcox. As a teenager, he was given his own 15minute radio show on KRNT-AM, which was broadcast live from a Des Moines, Iowa, department store. Later he hosted a program on WHO-AM, where he first met the station’s young sports announcer, Ronald “Dutch” Reagan. The two men started a friendship which lasted over 60 years. Nancy Reagan said that when the two men met in Iowa all those years ago, “neither could have guessed that their careers would take them both to the White House someday.” The former first lady noted Saturday that in recent years Williams performed several times at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, including for a concert celebrating the late president’s 100th birthday. “Roger was a great pianist, a great American, and a great friend. I am saddened by his death, and my sympathy and prayers go out to his family,” Nancy Reagan said in a statement.

Dear Annie: My husband, our daughter and I made plans to visit my mother-in-law. Other family members will be in town, as well, including our older daughter (age 25) and her boyfriend. They live together. My mother-in-law informed me that my daughter and her boyfriend would be sharing a bedroom. I can't control how my daughter lives, but I don't condone it. I emailed my mother-in-law, explaining that neither my husband nor I is comfortable with them sharing a room and didn't want to give our younger daughter the impression that this is OK. I was shocked when my 80-yearold mother-in-law wrote back saying this was her home and she could do whatever she wanted. We've had issues in the past, and it is my belief that she is trying to infuriate me while also appearing "cool and hip" to my daughter. My husband and I are hurt that she cares nothing about our feelings. What's worse is that in order to give my daughter and her boyfriend a bedroom, our younger daughter has been relegated to another relative's house. It would be so much easier if the two sisters shared the bedroom and the boyfriend slept on the sofa, especially since the girls rarely see each other. We already bought the expensive plane tickets. Otherwise, we would cancel the trip. We considered staying in a motel, but the purpose of the visit is to see the whole family, and we would miss out on any nighttime chats. Staying with our younger daughter is not possible. My husband and I are angry and don't know what to do. — Cool Grandma Doesn't Care Dear Doesn't Care: Your mother-in-law can do as she pleases in her own home. She also doesn't particularly care about her son's feelings on the subject, not to mention yours. Stop trying to pressure her to see it your way. She has made her decision and prefers your daughter's boyfriend's company to yours. So be it. Your choice is to attend or not, and to stay there or not. Since you are already going, we recommend you find other accommodations. Yes, you may miss out on some evening chats, but you should not be forced to endure a situation you find uncomfortable, and Mom should realize that you mean what you say. Dear Annie: My mother-in-law passed away last week. My husband of three years notified my family members by email, and we received caring and thoughtful condolences from my siblings, but not one from my nieces and nephews. I am hurt and upset that we received nothing from these young adults. An email response would have been fine, but they couldn't be bothered to take 10 seconds to press "reply" and say "sorry for your loss." I feel quite differently about these relatives now and am worried that I will spend the rest of my life bitter over this disappointment. — Canada Dear Canada: It is not uncommon for young adults to be unaware of the need to respond to such an email. To them, it is a notification, and replying is awkward. Please don't let this fester. Send another email to those nieces and nephews. Say you hope the original email reached them, because you were disappointed and hurt that none of them expressed condolences. Dear Annie: As a husband, I wouldn't dream of emulating the behavior exhibited by the spouse of "Unhappily Married to an Ogler," nor would my wife of 25 years put up with it for two seconds. The next time this Grade-A jerk does this, she should immediately approach the object of his ogling and say in a loud voice: "My 50-year-old husband just commented on your large breasts and tattoos. Would you ever consider sleeping with him?" I guarantee he will NEVER do it again. And if he does, she should pack her bags because she's better off without him. — Smart Enough To Know Better Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

HINTS FROM HELOISE
Here’s a few makeup pointers to consider Dear Readers: Let’s revisit some of our favorite makeup hints such as mascara, lipstick and liquid foundation: MASCARA • Don’t share mascara (or any cosmetic) with anyone! • Avoid using if you have any type of eye infection. • If the mascara is clumpy, dried up or not right in any way, throw it away. • Throw away after three months, especially if you use it on a daily basis. LIPSTICK • If it smells funny or off, throw it out. • Use petroleum jelly as a
Hints from Heloise Columnist base for your lipstick, or over the lipstick once it’s on lips as a gloss. • If you apply your lipstick up to three times a day, it should last you around three months. LIQUID FOUNDATION • If a package looks like it’s been opened or tampered with
in any way, do not buy or use it. • Always start with a clean face and hands before applying makeup. • When testing a shade of foundation on your skin, apply the makeup to the palm of your hand. There are no laws requiring expiration dates on cosmetics, according to the Food and Drug Administration. If you do see a product with a date, use it more as a guideline than a fact. When in doubt about a cosmetic item, throw it out! — Heloise
CLEAN SHOWER Dear Heloise: As a single man (widower), I, too, have come up with things to make life better for myself. This I found to be very helpful: I had been getting mildew on the inside of my shower walls, and I used cleaners to remove it. I now fully open the shower doors, alternating the opening from day to day, and have not had one instance of mildew since starting this. I also completely squeegee the inside of the shower doors every other day. — Stan Eskin, East Boca Raton, Fla.

ARLO AND JANIS
HOROSCOPE Monday, Oct. 10, 2011 Establishing multiple ambitious objectives will come easy for you in the year ahead, and you stand a good chance of realizing many of your aims. But you’ll have to be careful not to take on more than you can handle. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Be as cooperative as possible, even if the other guy isn’t. People can be a bit touchy, so tactful handling of all your important one-on-one relationships is essential. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Coworkers or helpmates could unintentionally cause problems for you. Thus, if it is at all feasible, do as much as you can on your own, rejecting all offers of help. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It’s always important to be extremely selective in whom you place your trust, but it is especially vital that you plan wisely when finances are involved. A bum choice could be costly. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Stifle any disagreement that pops up between you and your mate as promptly as possible. If you don’t, things could grow out of proportion and turn into a real fight. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — It’s likely to be very difficult for you to quell your temper if someone should irritate you, so be on guard. A lack of control invites unpleasant confrontations aplenty. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Yielding to extravagant impulses is never a good move, yet your desires could far outweigh your smarts. Unfortunately, you won’t have the willpower to withstand your fanciful whims. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Unless it can resolve something, don’t point any fingers at others, claiming they are the ones at fault for messing up, even if you believe this to be true. Let the chips fall where they may. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Even if you recognize the shortcomings of another, you should keep them to yourself and exercise tolerance when dealing with that person. Acting too smart or too wise makes you look bad. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — There is a good chance you might have to deal with someone who is a taker. Should this person think you’re an easy mark, don’t hesitate to prove him or her wrong. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Trying to force others to give you the support you think you deserve won’t help anything. In fact, instead of facilitating matters, it might only make them worse. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — It’s one of those days when you think you can beat the odds and, consequently, won’t hesitate to do something that goes against your better judgment. It’ll be a bad mistake. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You know it is never wise to involve yourself with friends where money or something of value is at stake, yet you are likely to do so anyway. Someone will get the short end of the stick. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Monday, Oct. 10, the 283rd day of 2011. There are 82 days left in the year. This is the Columbus Day observance in the United States, as well as Thanksgiving Day in Canada. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 10, 1911, Chinese revolutionaries launched the Wuchang Uprising which led to the collapse of the Qing (or Manchu) Dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. On this date: • In 1845, the U.S. Naval Academy was established in
Annapolis, Md. • In 1911, California voters approved Proposition 4, giving women the right to vote, and Proposition 7, which established the initiative process for proposing and enacting new laws. • In 1913, the Panama Canal was effectively completed as President Woodrow Wilson sent a signal from the White House by telegraph, setting off explosives that destroyed a section of the Gamboa dike. • In 1967, the Outer Space Treaty, prohibiting the placing of
weapons of mass destruction on the moon or elsewhere in space, entered into force. • One year ago: President Barack Obama delivered one of his most stinging criticisms yet of the GOP record to several thousand people in Philadelphia’s Germantown neighborhood as he urged voters not to sit out the midterm elections. • Today’s Birthdays: Rock singer David Lee Roth is 57. Country singer Tanya Tucker is 53. Actress Julia Sweeney is 52. NFL quarterback Brett Favre is 42.
Trouble ahead
FAA examines near collision
Some small Pa. towns fret over effects of flooding
Military plane, private aircraft cross paths
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — Tami Brown could only watch helplessly from her minivan parked on higher ground about 100 yards from home as she watched water from the Loyalsock Creek lap into her driveway. With the road closed, Brown couldn’t immediately view the damage to her single-family house. But the devastation she saw when she finally returned days later was enough for the mother of three to decide against returning to the idyllic, rural central Pennsylvania community she loved. When the cleanup finally ends, some small towns and rural communities face the prospect of dwindling population and declining tax bases as residents like Brown look for a fresh start away from areas ravaged by flooding in September caused by the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee. “This is our fourth flood here, but this is by far the worst,” Brown said. “We love the area … but now it’s totaled.” The flooding overwhelmed communities all along the Susquehanna River, which meanders through northeastern and central Pennsylvania. Much of the public attention in Lee’s immediate aftermath focused on the population centers of Harrisburg and WilkesBarre. Yet the damage was just as bad, if not worse, in small, out-of-the-way villages like Barbours in Plunketts Creek Township, Lycoming County. The

In this Sept. 29 photo, Tami Brown shows the damage to her car after it was washed away from her property in Plunketts Creek Township, near Williamsport, Pa. Foodwaters following the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee inundated her community. 2010 census showed a township population of about 680, down 11 percent from a decade earlier. Brown, a third-shift nursing home worker, may be next to go. She lived for more than a decade on a property converted from an old gas station at a quiet crossroads. It’s the type of area where she and her husband felt comfortable having their three children take walks or bike along an isolated road that winds along the creek. Post-flood, the uprooted trees and shoreline further down the road now hold painful reminders of their lives. The flood tore away their home’s walls and inundated the entire first floor, leaving behind a mangled mess of wiring, wet framing and waterlogged furniture and toys. An antique upright piano disappeared. “We haven’t found one single key on it anywhere,” Brown said, gesturing at the now empty, messy space. Clothing and blankets were strewn among empty branches. Brown’s two beloved Volkswagen bee-
tles were carried away from the property and deposited more than 30 yards away along another nearby swollen tributary that empties into the Loyalsock. She was waiting for an engineer from her insurance company to designate her home as destroyed, a label she hoped would help open up opportunities to finally obtain government loans or grants to find a new home. Appreciative of neighbors’ support and charitable donations, a tired and frustrated Brown also felt smaller towns didn’t receive as much attention when it comes to government response. “We’re kind of like the forgotten ones,” she said. “I mean, who knows Barbours unless you’re a hunter or fisherman … This is our life, and it just got washed away.” Township officials worry about the mounting bills. One road alone could take $1.8 million to repair, or about 10 years’ worth of the municipality’s budget, supervisor Gary Abernatha said. “We don’t have any mon-
etary funds to do a lot of the stuff that we’ve got to have done,” he said in a phone interview. “I know everybody is looking for money … It’s looking very difficult.” And that’s not accounting for what the budget might look like in the future with the likelihood of families moving out of the area. According to the local volunteer fire department, 92 homes in its coverage area were destroyed, while 56 suffered “major damage.” “Our tax base, that’s washed away. That’s going to go downhill dramatically, I’m sure,” Abernatha said. “I simply can’t blame the people who aren’t going back.” At the same time, he has a sense of optimism, hoping that time may make the sting of starting over less painful for some residents, that perhaps people will stay in the township but away from the creek. “You’ve got to give people a chance to get back around, get reoriented and move back into the places that they’re going to fix,” he said. About 95 miles south-
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A flying instructor has sent a letter to the Federal Aviation Administration, contending a military cargo plane overtook her and a student pilot and passed within 100 feet near Wasilla last month. Military officials deny the C-17 cargo plane passed closer than 500 feet but the Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the Sept. 20 incident. Student pilot Devon Copple, 22, told the Anchorage Daily News she took off in a blue-andwhite single-engine Cessna with instructor Heidi Ruess of Arctic Flyers and spent the morning practicing maneuvers and training landings. On the flight back to Anchorage, the Cessna was at an altitude of 2,200 feet to 2,250 feet when she glanced at Ruess and spotted something through the side window the wing of the 174-foot cargo plane. “All I saw was gray,” Copple said. The C-17 had approached from behind. “I thought it was the end, really,” Ruess said. “It was pretty close.” The airplane from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson was on a practicing mission to drop heavy equipment. The aircraft can drop supplies or paratroopers. Cargo planes fly in a loop from the Anchorage base north toward Wasilla and then south toward a training area at altitudes of 300 to 2,000 feet.
Base spokesman Bob Hall said the planes must fly at 2,000 feet to begin an approach to the drop zone. A C-17 must be stable for 60 seconds for paratroopers to jump, said 3rd Wing Operations Group Commander Col. Derek France said in a statement. “We have been asked in the past if we could fly at 3,000 (feet) over the Big Lake/Wasilla area,” France said. “In doing so, we are only able to give the paratroopers 15 seconds of stability time for them to prepare to exit the aircraft.” Ruess and her son, pilot Richard Ruess, said the military planes fly too low and fast in areas shared with small airplanes. The turbulence they create could cause a fatal accident, they said. They want the cargo planes to stay at 3,000 feet as they fly through uncontrolled airfields and practice areas. Heidi Ruess in a letter to the FAA said the C-17 overtook her plane and passed from below. “I understand that the crew of the C-17 when contacted by approach told the approach controller that they had my aircraft in sight, but the C-17 continued to pass under my aircraft anyway,” Ruess wrote in the letter. The military pilot, she said, was required by regulations to give the smaller plane the right of way. Base spokesman Hall said the C-17 was on a correct path and did not deviate. Hall by email said the C-17’s onboard traffic collision avoidance system did give an alert. Hall said the C-17’s electronic collision avoidance system showed the Cessna more than 500 feet from the cargo plane.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Bernard Scott (28), second from right, scores a rushing touchdown past Jacksonville Jaguars free safety Dawan Landry (26) during the second half in Jacksonville, Fla. on Sunday.
Great Scott Running back’s late TD seals Bengals win JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Reggie Nelson ran around the field with his arms held high. Sure, it was a great feeling to win in his return to Jacksonville. Nelson had another reason to celebrate: the comefrom-behind victory got him off the hook. Andy Dalton threw two touchdown passes, Bernard Scott scored with 1:56 remaining and the Bengals rallied to beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-20 Sunday. The Bengals (3-2) took advantage of Matt Turk’s 22yard punt into the wind to set
up the winning score, a touchdown that was needed because Mike Nugent missed an extra point in the first half and because Nelson blew coverage on a 74-yard touchdown pass in the fourth. “I’ve had a lot of success on this field and had some good wins here, so it was nice to continue that trend,” Nelson said. “Bottom line, it’s a W. A win is a win, even if we did make some mistakes out there.” Cincinnati’s mistakes were overshadowed by Jacksonville’s gaffes, which resulted in a fourth consecutive loss and more questions about coach
Jack Del Rio’s future with the franchise. “At the end of the day, he’s not playing,” Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew said. “If somebody has to go, obviously it’s going to be one of the players. You can call whatever you want, we have to execute the play. It’s not on the coach. It’s sad to say that he has to take the heat, but he shouldn’t because he’s not out there strapping it up, going out there to play. All he can do is sit and watch. “It ain’t on him. He’s not

SAN MARTIN, Calif. (AP) — A strange year for Tiger Woods took another bizarre twist Sunday when a fan was arrested for running toward the seventh green at CordeValle and tossing a hot dog in Woods’ direction. The bun barely reached the green. The hot dog landed on the putting surface. The 31-year-old man, whose name wasn’t released, dropped to the ground to be arrested as Santa Clara sheriff’s deputies converged on him. Woods backed off his birdie putt, then quickly resumed play. Even as he returned last year from a sex scandal, and the occasional fan would should heckle him, Woods never had a fan duck under the ropes and approach him. “Some guy just came running on the green, and he had a hot dog, and evidently … I don’t know how he tried to throw it, but I was kind of focusing on my putt when he started yelling,” said Woods, who didn’t seem bothered by it all. “Next thing I know, he laid on the ground, and looked like he wanted to be arrested because he … put his hands behind his back and turned his head.” Sgt. Jose Cardoza said the man was arrested for disturbing the peace and removed from the property. Because it was a misdemeanor, Cardoza said the man would not be taken to jail and his name not disclosed. Cardoza said only that he was from Santa Rosa. “He was very cooperative,” Cardoza said. “They said, ‘Why did you do this?’ He just shook his head in guilt or remorse. He didn’t give a reason why he did it.” Cardoza said the man claims he wasn’t throwing the hot dog at Woods, rather tossing it in the air. He said the man acknowledged having a drink earlier in the day, that the man was not drunk. Arjun Atwal, who played with Woods, said he was concerned for a moment at the sight of a fan yelling out Woods’ name and approaching the green. “They could have shot him,” Atwal said. “The cops could have thought it was something else.”

NLCS ■ CONTINUED FROM 9 and came off nice, but when you can’t hear the ball, the sound of it, because of all the people yelling. I wasn’t sure what was going to happen there until I saw the ball flight.” At least for one game, the bitter NL Central rivals avoided any on-field confrontations in their first postseason matchup since the 1982 World Series. • ALCS Game 2 changed
ARLINGTON, Texas — The Detroit Tigers are wet and wounded. After Game 2 of the AL championship series in Texas was postponed Sunday because of more rain in the forecast, manager Jim Leyland said the Tigers have lost their second starting outfielder for the series. Magglio Ordonez is out for the rest of the season after he re-fractured his right ankle, which was surgically repaired in July 2010. He had missed more than a month this summer because of problems with that ankle, then came out of the twiceinterrupted ALCS opener. “Magglio had just been talking three or four days ago about how he felt great, how he felt as good as he’s felt for a long time,” Leyland said. Already without Delmon Young (left oblique), the Tigers lost to the defending AL champion Texas Rangers 3-2 in Game 1. The second game was rescheduled for 4:19 p.m. EDT Monday, and the teams will lose their travel day with Game 3 still set for Tuesday in Detroit. Derek Holland pitches Monday for the Rangers against Max Scherzer, who gets an extra day after his 1 1-3 innings of relief in the Tigers’ AL division series clincher Thursday night against the New York Yankees. The ALCS opener was stopped by rain twice in the top of the fifth inning Saturday night for a total of 1 hour, 50 minutes.

Jimmie Johnson celebrates in victory lane after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at Kansas Speedway Sunday in Kansas City, Kan.
Don’t count him out Johnson wins Kansas, 4 points back in Cup race KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — That’ll teach everyone to count out Jimmie Johnson. The five-time defending Cup champion dominated Sunday at Kansas Speedway, weathering a series of late cautions and holding off Kasey Kahne to win for the first time since April. stumbled Johnson through the first two races in NASCAR’s version of a postseason, and was 10th in the standings heading to Dover. A second-place finish last weekend gave Johnson confidence, and his first win since Talladega moved him into third in the Chase behind Carl Edwards and Kevin Harvick. “Jimmie was the car to beat all day,” said Brad Keselowski, who finished third. Jeff Gordon made things interesting when his care blew up with three laps
remaining. Johnson chose not to pit before the green-whitecheckered finish, but still managed to drive away from Kahne and Keselowski on worn out tires. Keselowski, who won the Nationwide race Saturday, still moved up to fourth in the Chase with six races left. “It all comes back to having a good team,” Keselowski said. “Good teams have good cars, they’re the best at the end, the fastest at the end, they have good pit strategy and they’re strong through adversity, and I just have a really good team.” Tony Stewart spent most of the afternoon trying to chase down Johnson, and at times appeared to have the car to do it. Stewart climbed 17 spots to sixth after about 50 laps, and at one point brashly told his team over the radio, “I’m in
a hurry … I’ve got things to do.” A series of mistakes near the end cost him, though. Stewart chose to pit when Gordon brought out the final caution, but carried too much speed down pit road and slid through his stall. By the time his team backed him up and changed tires, Stewart had shuffled back to 17th and he crossed the finish line in 15th. Stewart won the first two races of the Chase to vault into the points lead, but he struggled all weekend at Dover and finished 25th. He’ll now head to Charlotte eighth in the standings. Edwards and Harvick came in tied for lead in the Chase, with the top nine drivers separated by a mere 19 points. Things shook out a bit Sunday, but Edwards and Harvick are still on top.

NBA players say ‘there’s still time’ to make a deal

MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James grabbed a microphone, then turned and pointed at the 4,000 fans who packed the arena that hosted the South Florida All-Star Classic. Their cheers nearly drowned out his words. “There’s no us without you guys,” James said. “Every last one of you guys.” Such was the scene in Miami on Saturday night at the exhibition hosted by James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh an emotional outpouring from fans, similar to what’s happened at other games that have popped up during the NBA lockout. The NBA preseason schedule was supposed to open with five games on Sunday, but that slate was canceled long ago and the first two weeks of the regular season are now in jeopardy as well. “There’s still time,” Heat player representative James Jones said. “There’s always time. Anything can happen. But you have to be realistic and understand that just because there’s

time it doesn’t mean that something will get done. But on the flip side, something can get done.” On Sunday, a person with knowledge of the plans told The Associated Press that top negotiators for the NBA and players’ association had agreed to meet again, two days after the union said the league insisted it accept a 50-50 split of revenues as a condition for returning to the negotiating table. Players balked at that demand. So everything remains very uncertain, and that was one of many reasons why fans were in no hurry to leave after seeing James, Wade, Bosh and a slew of other stars play at Florida International on Saturday night. Simply stated, those fans aren’t sure when they’ll see them again. “The fans need the game,” said NBA veteran Caron Butler, who ended last season with the champion Dallas Mavericks. “They miss the game. And we want to play it.” Wade asked the players to stick around after Saturday’s game ended for what turned into an hourlong meeting on the status of the labor negotiations. The AP has learned Wade is trying to become more involved in the talks, and urged those who were in the room with him late Saturday night to be as “informed” as possible about what’s at stake in this next labor agreement.

Raiders 25, Texans 20 HOUSTON — The Oakland Raiders won the day after owner Al Davis died, beating the Houston Texans 25-20 on Sunday behind Jason Campbell’s two touchdown passes. Michael Huff intercepted Matt Schaub’s pass in the end zone on the final play to secure the win. Coach Hue Jackson dropped to his knees on the sideline, covered his face with his hands and cried as his team celebrated the bittersweet victory. Bills 31, Eagles 24 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Fred Jackson had 196 yards from scrimmage and linebacker Nick Barnett had two of Buffalo’s four interceptions. After scoring on a 31yard interception return in the second quarter, Barnett sealed the victory by grabbing Michael Vick’s tipped pass intended for Jason Avant with 1:49 remaining at the Bills 26.

He was sacked twice and threw an interception. Cedric Benson ran 24 times for 53 yards. A.J. Green caught five passes for 90 yards and a score. “We could be 5-0 right now, but that’s not the way it is,” Green said. “But we’ll take this.” Jacksonville had a chance to tie, but Gabbert fumbled an early snap from Brad Meester, and the Bengals ended up with the ball. Cincinnati also scored on a wacky fumble return on the final play. “Pretty crappy feeling right now,” Del Rio said. “Simply not acceptable on a lot of fronts. Just put it on my shoulders. I’m not doing enough. We can’t have breakdowns like that at the end of the game. … It’s unacceptable.”
With the injured Peyton Manning watching from the sideline, Curtis Painter had a brilliant first half. He was 12 of 17 for 237 yards with two TDs and a quarterback rating of 152.2 as the Colts (0-5) built a 24-7 lead. But Cassel found Breaston for a 16-yard TD pass just before halftime and Bowe on a 5-yard score with 40 seconds left in the third quarter to get the Chiefs within 24-21. Then, with 5:15 left in the game, Breaston caught the 11yard go-ahead score. Steelers 38, Titans 17 PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger tied a team record with five touchdown passes including two to Hines Ward. Other than a slight limp when he ran, Roethlisberger appeared to have no issues with his sprained left foot, also hitting Mike Wallace, Heath Miller and David Johnson for scores as the Steelers (32) ended Tennessee’s threegame winning streak. Vikings 34, Cardinals 10 MINNEAPOLIS — Adrian Peterson powered in for three first-quarter TDs to build a lead large enough even Minnesota (1-4) couldn’t lose it. Peterson rushed 29 times for 122 yards and Donovan McNabb jogged in for a score, too, as the Vikings (1-4) made it 28-0 less than 12 minutes into the game. Kevin Kolb had three turnovers for the Cardinals (1-4) and finished 21 for 42 for 232 yards and one touchdown pass, a performance so shaky the Vikings were able to confidently run down the clock after stumbling through the second and third quarters.

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.

Columbus Day always falls on the 2nd Monday in October Nearly everyone knows that "Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred ninety two (1492)." The question is — Was Columbus smart about safety? Can you imagine what it would be like to live on a crowded school bus for eight long months? Columbus and his men had a little more room than that, but not much. It was an amazing adventure. He built sturdy ships. It is a matter of record that Columbus carefully planned the construction of his three ships —
the Santa Maria, the Pinta, and the Nina. He even ordered "crooked pines" from the Pyrenees to be dragged down to the sea to be used to make the frames, beams, and decks, for extra sturdiness. He had no idea what dangers he would face, but he was sure that one of them might be storms at sea. He protected his maps and charts. Columbus had a small cabin built on the Santa Maria that held his bed, a few personal belongings, and his maps and charts. It was the only cabin on board. He built space below the deck to store ample supplies. The hold — the
wall beside the steps. Unfurling his map, Hector excitedly showed them places where they would stop to eat and rest. A big X marked the spot of the treasure, located in the nearby town of Gallinas. “OK – which way, then?” Felix asked anxiously. “My cousins live in Gallinas and we always drive down Highway 54 to visit them,” Karol suggested. “That’s the long way!” Hector interrupted. “Let’s just go down Main Street to where it meets the county road. The county road is a straight shot to Gallinas and we’ll save hours of time!” Both Hector and Karol looked over at Felix to make the decision. “Saving time does sound good,” Felix considered, not completely sure he should listen to Hector. The three explorers began walking through town, passing the few shops that lined Main Street. When they reached the intersection of Main Street and the county road, they all hesitated. “Here we are – the point of no return.” Felix said softly. “Quit being such a baby,” Hector said, giving Felix a shove. Felix lunged forward onto the county road. He felt a surge of excitement as he imagined himself traveling through the untamed wilderness that Coronado had explored. Karol and Hector immediately joined him on the rough, unpaved road.
The Brass Bell Written by Cathy Sewell and illustrated by Blaise Sewell of The Curriculum Closet Chapter Two: The Expedition Begins “Francisco Vásquez de Coronado was a Spanish conquistador who explored the southwestern United States [in] 1540-1542, in search of the Seven Cities of Gold. He had with him hundreds of Spaniards, natives, monks and slaves.” – Coronado and the Golden Cities The next morning, Felix jumped out of bed and quickly got dressed. “I’m going over to Hector’s house for the day,” he told Grandma. “I might just stay the night, too,” he added, with his mouth full of cinnamon churros. “All right, Felix, but be careful,” Grandma said. Felix wondered if she had noticed his overstuffed backpack sitting by the door. “Here are a few snacks … just in case,” she said with a wink. Yes, she was definitely on to him! He walked out the door, searching through his goodie bag. There were several sandwiches, fruit snacks and Felix’s favorite: licorice. Karol was waiting on the steps of the school with an equally full backpack. “Hey Felix, are you ready?” “Hey, you two!” Hector startled them both as he jumped onto the concrete
space below deck — was used to store food, tools, ropes, extra sails, cannon balls, guns, and other supplies Columbus felt they might need on the trip. He ordered the crew to catch fresh fish every day, to avoid illness. The crew caught fresh fish every day they could. Along with fish, they ate salt meat, cheese, beans, rice, almonds, honey and raisins. He told his men that they could not drink the ocean water. Instead, Columbus and his crew drank water from wooden barrels they had brought on board, and wine from big casks.
After several quiet miles, Karol finally broke the silence. “I brought beef jerky and some trail mix with chocolate pieces!” “I have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, licorice and fruit snacks,” Felix said proudly. But anyone who knew Felix would have guessed there would be licorice in his bag, because of his long obsession with the twisted treat. “And I brought a frozen pizza!” Hector reached in his bag to show the partially thawed box. “Exactly where do you plan on finding an oven out here, Hector?” Felix laughed. “Laugh now, Felix, but you’ll be asking me for a slice soon enough!” Hector said, putting his soggy snack away as they continued walking. Suddenly, the dirt road ended: no stop sign, no turn, no intersection. The three stood at the edge of rocks, sand and grass. “Oh, great – now we’re lost!” Karol tried to sound more angry than scared. “Hey, no worries!” Hector said, pointing west. “If we just head across here, we’ll eventually run into Highway 54.” “Fine, let’s go,” Felix mumbled, walking across the rocky surface. “It’s starting to get hot out here.” “Let’s aim for those big rocks and take a lunch break
there,” Hector suggested. “Some of those rocks look a little dangerous,” Karol started to say, but she only got out part of her sentence before Felix slipped. “Hey, you OK?” Hector stumbled over to Felix, who was now flat on his back. “Yeah, I’m fine,” Felix winced. But he wasn’t fine. His ankle hurt and immediately began to swell. “Wh … what’s that?” Hector started to sway back and forth. “Sit down, Hector, before you faint.” Karol ordered. “I’ve got a bandage in my first-aid kit. Let me wrap that up for you, Felix.” “Thanks, Karol. I think we should go ahead and eat lunch right here,” Felix said, sharing his rations with his friends. After they inhaled lunch, Hector was ready to get going. They picked up their trash and prepared to continue their hike. “Should we take a siesta?” Karol asked. “Nope, explorers must push through the pain, vámanos!” Felix stood up to show he was strong enough to walk.

He ordered his men to cook their meals. All meals were cooked in small fireplaces on deck called sandbox cookers, to reduce the risk of illness. Sandbox cookers were designed to allow cooking on deck safely, without catching the wood ship on fire. He had at least one man on watch at all times. At least one member of the crew was always on watch, on the lookout for any danger including pirates, men overboard, reefs, and land. The man on watch was tucked high up on the 80-foot mainsail, in the "crow's nest." Everyone arrived safely! Once he set sail, it took Columbus only two months to catch his first sight of the New World. Still, that was a very long time for 90 men to live in a space about the size of a school bus.Yet, there is no record of any outbreak of disease. No one fell overboard. When they spotted land, they did not rush in. They must have been glad to spot land for many reasons! Still, they did not land right away. Columbus and his crew sailed along the shoreline. They stopped at a couple of places and established some base camps. They met the natives — some friendly, some not. His careful planning and sturdy ships saved their lives. When Columbus and his men decided to leave the New World and return to Spain, they ran into a little trouble. By then, they were down to only two ships, which made things even more crowded. A storm had wrecked the Santa Maria on Christmas Day that year. (Columbus returned to Spain on the smaller ship, the Nina.) They ran into another storm as they were returning to Spain. They were tossed about by waves higher than a sixty foot building! The Nina and the Pinta were separated in the storm. Yet, both ships safely found their way home. The round trip, including their adventures in the New World, took eight months. Columbus was paid well for his trip. Columbus was highly respected and, thanks to his adventures, he was also quite wealthy. He was happily married. He had a couple of kids. He was incredibly stubborn. To the day he died, he never once admitted that he had found a New World. He insisted that he had, in fact, discovered the back door to China.

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS
Did You Know?
Born in 1451 - Died in 1506
• Christopher Columbus never set foot on mainland North America. The closest he got was one of the islands in the present day Bahamas.
Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa (JEN oh uh), Italy. He was the oldest of five children in his family. His father was a wool weaver. He helped his father with the weaving, but he always wanted to sail the seas. He didn’t get to go to school very much, but he learned to read and write Spanish during his travels. He also taught himself Latin because all the geography books were written in Latin. Some people thought he was trying to prove the world was round, but this is not true. Most people already knew the earth was round. He wanted to find a short way to get to the
Indies by ship. He was a Christian and wanted to tell the story of Christ to the people he would find in the far away lands. He also wanted wealth for himself and for Spain, and he wanted to be famous. He tried for eight years to get King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella to supply him with ships and money. Finally they agreed, but he made more demands. He wanted to be made a knight,* admiral * of the Ocean Sea. He wanted to be the viceroy * and governor * general * of all lands he would discover. Also he wanted one-tenth of everything he found of value in the new lands. He even boldly told them he wanted all of this in writing. This was rather brave of him because they could have had him killed because of his demands. They finally agreed and he got three ships ready to
First voyage
• Columbus did not have any women on his first two voyages. In 1498, Columbus recruited one woman for every 10 men on his third voyage. • Neither Columbus nor the Vikings discovered the “New World” as it was settled by people centuries before them. The best claim that can be made is they “encountered” a world which was in his 20s. sail — the Santa Maria and two smaller ships, the Pinta and the Nina. He took enough food for a year. In four months he was ready to sail. They left Spain on Aug. 3, 1492. They made one stop, then sailed on toward the west. After many days, the sailors were ready to turn around and start back home. “Just three more days,” he said. “Then if we don’t

see land, we’ll turn around and go back home.” Two days later they saw land; an island Columbus named San Salvador. He thought he had found the Indies and called the people he saw there “Indians.” When they got to Cuba, he thought he was in China. The world was a lot larger than he thought. On Christmas Eve, the Santa Maria was wrecked near Haiti. Columbus built a fort and left 40 men to hunt for gold. Then he returned to Spain on the Nina. The Pinta also returned. The people of Spain welcomed him as a hero. He made three more voyages across the ocean. His 13-year-old son, Ferdinand went with him on the fourth voyage. Columbus did not become rich as he had hoped. At the end of his life he only had a pension the king and queen had given him because he was the first to reach the New World. He spent the last few months of his life in bed because of the pain of arthritis. Columbus not only discovered a New World, but he led the way for other explorers.
• Columbus’ first voyage included mostly seasoned sailors but the Spanish Crown did grant amnesty to criminals in case Columbus had trouble recruiting a crew. Four such men were members of his crew. • Columbus consulted an almanac and used the knowledge of a pending total lunar eclipse to convince natives in Cuba that he had supernatural powers. • Ramone Pane, a monk who accompanied Christopher Columbus on his second voyage in 1493, is credited with introducing tobacco to Europe. • Columbus calculated the earth’s circumference to be nearly 16,000 miles (it’s slightly over 25,000 miles around). He estimated the distance between Europe and Japan to be around 2,300 miles instead of the 12,000 it really is. • Despite popular belief, a 55 year-old Columbus didn’t die a pauper in 1506, but a relatively rich man.
