A MAN knelt across the street from where police gathered outside the Emanuel AME Church following a shooting Wednesday night in Charleston, S.C.

Nine fatally shot at church in S.C. By ALEX SANZ and DAVID GOLDMAN Associated Press

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Authorities were searching today for a white man who opened fire during a prayer meeting inside a historic black church in downtown Charleston, killing nine people, including the pastor, in an assault authorities described as a hate crime. The shooter remained at large this morning and police released

HARRISBURG — In theory, Pennsylvania school districts whose communities are similar economically are supposed to receive about the same amount of money per student from the state. But, with politics muscling in on how public school aid was distributed in the last two decades,

But State House Minority leader Todd Rutherford told The Associated Press that the Emanuel AME Church’s pastor, state Sen. Clementa Pinckney, was among those killed. Pinckney, 41, was a married father of two who was elected to the state House at age 23, making Continued on Page 12

officials have long complained about gaping disparities in public school aid. Some communities now get half as much per-student aid as those with similar economic circumstances. Today, a panel of lawmakers and top advisers to Gov. Tom Wolf is set to recommend a way to close the gap, an effort that comes as Wolf is seeking the biggest one-

year boost in public school aid in the state’s history. An Associated Press review of state data shows per-student funding differences can be great. For example, take the Purchase Line School District in Indiana County and Curwensville Area School District in Clearfield County. Deemed by the state to have nearly identical wealth, the Continued on Page 12

Indiana County is the third stakeholder to commit $30,000 as part of matching funds for state grant money to help build a multimodal corridor with dedicated bicycle paths across Indiana Borough and the Indiana University of Pennsylvania campus and in White Township. The county commissioners Wednesday committed the $30,000 that will be added to equal commitments from the White Township supervisors and Indiana Borough council. An equal commitment is also expected from the university. The commissioners also approved an application for a Multimodal Transportation Fund grant to be used for pre-construction and construction costs of the proposed corridor. Byron Stauffer, executive director of the Indiana County Office of Planning and Development, said the amount of the grant application has not been determined but he anticipates it will be $400,000 to $600,000. The MTF money, if approved, could be used with a $1.7 million Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant already available for the corridor project. The proposed corridor will extend the Hoodlebug Trail from its current end point near Wayne Avenue to the East Pike Recreation Complex in White Township over a route across IUP yet to be finalized and along Gompers Avenue in Indiana.

Officials hiring residents to hear assessment appeals By RANDY WELLS

rwells@indianagazette.net

Indiana County’s property reassessment project is about to create more temporary employment opportunities. The county commissioners said Wednesday they are soliciting applicants interested in serving on the county’s reassessment appeals boards. Fifteen people will be hired to form five three-member appeals boards. Eight additional people will be hired as alternates. The appeals boards are expected to operate from August into November. The positions will pay $130 per day or $65 per halfday. Evaluator Services and Technology Inc., the company hired to conduct the reassessment, has estimated that the owners of about 20 percent of all properties in the county will request an informal or formal appeal of their property assessments, and that could mean 9,000 to 10,000 appeals. Applicants for the appeals boards must be Indiana County residents with a high school diploma or equivalent. Anyone interested may call the commissioners’ office Continued on Page 12

KENWOOD — The president of the Penns Manor Education Association, representing teachers in the district, said the upcoming furloughs will hurt education and shave off programming. “We feel strongly that the furloughs approved at last week’s school board meeting diminish Penns Manor’s educational programs,” said Dan Antonacci, president of the PMEA. “Furloughs mean larger class sizes and less individualized attention for our students. Furloughs also eliminate professional positions in our community.” On June 11, the Penns Manor

board of directors doled out full or partial furloughs affecting several teachers to extend the financial life of the district, according to Superintendent Daren Johnston. The district is expected to save $191,032 by reducing positions in art, French, technology education and physical education. But board President Robert Packer said Wednesday PMEA has known about the furloughs for months. He said about a month ago the district offered a verbal agreement to PMEA to split the cost/savings (depending on respective sides’ perspectives) that would avoid or minimize furloughs.

Mayor: Deadly balcony collapse tied to rotted beams By LISA LEFF and MARTHA MENDOZA Associated Press

BERKELEY, Calif. — The balcony collapse that killed six college students appears to have been caused by rotted wooden beams, Berkeley’s mayor said Wednesday as the victims’ heartbroken loved ones began arriving in the U.S. from Ireland. Mayor Tom Bates said investigators believe the wood was not caulked and sealed properly at the time of construction and was damaged by moisture as a result. The crowded fifth-floor balcony broke off an apartment building during a 21stbirthday party early Tuesday held by visiting Irish college students, dumping 13 people 50 feet onto the pavement. In addition to the six killed, seven were seriously hurt. “More than likely it was

caused by rain and caused by water damage that was done to the support beams,� Bates said. He said it was “obviously a bad idea� for 13 people to crowd onto such a small balcony — it was about 40 square feet — but added that he is not blaming the victims. Later in the day, however, the mayor said the waterdamage theory was speculation on his part and not an official conclusion, and that the investigation is still underway. Building inspectors also determined another balcony at the Library Gardens apartment complex was “structurally unsafe and presented a collapse hazard.� They ordered it demolished. Two other balconies were red-tagged, or declared offlimits, at the apartments, which were completed in 2007 and are popular among visiting students and those at

FBI: Surveillance flights by the book, rarely track phones By EILEEN SULLIVAN, JACK GILLUM and ERIC TUCKER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The FBI assured Congress in an unusual, confidential briefing that its plane surveillance program is a by-the-books operation short on high-definition cameras — with some planes equipped with binoculars — and said only five times in five years has it tracked cellphones from the sky. The FBI would not openly answer some questions about its planes, which routinely orbit major U.S. cities and rural areas. Although the FBI has described the program as unclassified and not secret, it declined to disclose during an unclassified portion of a Capitol Hill briefing any details about how many planes it flies or how much the program costs. In a 2009 budget document, the FBI said it had 115 planes in its fleet. The briefing Wednesday to Senate staff was the first effort in recent years — if ever — to impose oversight for the FBI’s 30-year aerial surveillance program that gives support to specific, ongoing investigations into counterterrorism, espionage and criminal cases and ground surveillance operations. While it withheld some details, it offered assurances that the planes are not intended to perform mass surveillance or bulk intelligence collection. However, there is still no formal oversight regimen for the program. The briefing came two weeks after the FBI confirmed to The Associated Press for the first time its wide-scale use of the aircraft, after the AP traced at least 50 planes registered to fake companies back to the FBI. The AP investigation identified more than 100 flights in 11 states over a 30-day period this spring. The planes since June 1 have flown more than two-dozen times over at least seven states, including parts of Texas, Georgia and the Pacific Northwest. The ubiquity of the flights, combined with few details about the surveillance equipment aboard the planes, raised civil liberties concerns over Americans’ privacy. The AP had reported that, in rare circumstances, the FBI equipped the planes with technology capable of tracking thousands of cellphones using a device known as a “cell-site simulator.� These can trick pinpointed cellphones into revealing identification numbers of subscribers, including those not suspected of a crime. The FBI said that technology has been used on its surveillance aircraft only five

times since 2010, according to one Senate staffer present at the briefing. The FBI would not say how often it has used the technology in ground surveillance operations. Staffers shared details with the AP on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about them. The FBI said 85 percent of the aircraft have commercially available infrared still and video cameras. The remaining 15 percent use binoculars for surveillance missions. The FBI said there were only eight high-definition cameras in the fleet, though it would like to have that technology for more of its planes. The FBI, like the Drug Enforcement Administration, said it hides its aircraft behind fake companies so that it can discreetly conduct surveillance and protect the safety of the pilots. The FBI said most surveillance flights — some 64 percent — are part of national security investigations. It was unclear over what time period those flights took place. Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, pressed for answers about the FBI’s aerial surveillance program after The Washington Post reported in May that an FBI surveillance plane was used over Baltimore dur-

ing rioting that erupted following the death of 25-yearold Freddie Gray, who sustained grievous injuries while in police custody. In that instance, the FBI was helping local police with aerial support. Despite government concerns that publicity about the planes might impede surveillance, the number of flights has remained consistent since the AP first reported on the program, according to an AP review of flight records and radar data. Flights since June 2 have occurred a few times each day over cites across the United States, including San Francisco, Phoenix and Orange County, Calif. They are generally flown without a warrant, which the FBI says is consistent with the law. Two senators proposed changing that Wednesday. Sen. Dean Heller, a Nevada Republican, and Sen. Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat who has been outspoken about government surveillance, introduced a bill that would limit what the federal government can record from the skies and require a warrant to conduct surveillance from planes and drones. “Technology has made it possible to conduct roundthe-clock aerial surveillance. The law needs to keep up,� Wyden said in a statement.

ects in Millbrae and San Jose. Among other things, Segue was accused of improperly waterproofing balconies. Both cases were settled in 2013 with Segue, developers and other parties agreeing to pay millions of dollars. Segue spokesman Sam Singer said such litigation is common on large projects and “has no bearing on the tragedy� in Berkeley. “They are completely different projects. They are completely different types of balconies,� he said. Singer said of the balcony collapse: “Segue Construction has never had an incident like this in its history.� Cassandra Bujarski, a spokeswoman for the apartments’ property management firm, Greystar, had no comment. Across the Atlantic, flags flew at half-staff around Ireland and the country’s par-

liament suspended normal business as the nation mourned the dead: Ashley Donohoe, 22, of Rohnert Park, Calif., and Olivia Burke, Eoghan Culligan, Niccolai Schuster, Lorcan Miller and Eimear Walsh, all 21-yearolds from Ireland. Grieving family members declined to speak with the media after arriving from Ireland and being met at San Francisco International Airport by a priest. Later Wednesday night, a Mass was held at a cathedral in nearby Oakland in the students’ honor. The gathering of about 300 people, which included some fellow Irish students but no relatives of the victims, heard “Amazing Grace� played on bagpipes as they mourned. “All we can do is to pray, to love and to care for them,� Father Aidan McAleenan said at the Mass.

BLACK LICK — Township officials said the expertise of state environmental officials may be necessary to remedy the pollution of a drainage ditch literally across Park Drive from the township office. Neighbors Pauline Duncan and Ruth Ann and Wayne Stiles, whose homes stand about 100 yards east of the township office, told the board of supervisors Wednesday that the ditch has been fouled by household waste and apparent petroleum products. “The smell has been going into our houses for four or five months now,” Duncan told the supervisors. “Something’s got to be done. It’s like sludge.” “It’s bad, it’s black and it stinks,” Ruth Stiles said. The neighbors said the smell gets worse after heavy rainfall and during hot weather. The ditch is intended to carry away only rainwater runoff, and although the neighborhood is served by a sanitary sewage pipeline system, the water in the ditch has the telltale rainbow sheen of an oil slick near their houses. Duncan said her grandchildren needed medical care for respiratory problems that developed after they were exposed to the smells. The exact source of the pollution hasn’t been determined. It has surfaced in the same area that was contaminated within the past few years by a leak of 250 gallons of fuel oil from a storage tank at a mobile home that has since been removed from the lot next to Duncan’s home. Supervisor Chairman Larry Henry and Supervisor Anthony Distefano said the Department of Environmental Protection cleaned up the earlier oil spill, and Distefano said the township would ask DEP to look at the new problem.

BURRELL TOWNSHIP “Let’s get the DEP back in to look at it,” Distefano said. “How do we clean up something like that? If we touch it, it’s going to make it worse. They may have some suggestions on how you do it, what you do with it.” Henry and Distefano considered the residents’ request and unanimously approved other township business. Supervisor John Shields was absent. In other business, the supervisors: • Agreed to advertise for bids for road-paving supplies for the summer project. Bids on more than 1,600 tons of various paving materials will be due in the township office by 3 p.m. July 6. Henry said the township plans to resurface McKnight Road, Hazel Street, Ridgeview Avenue, Sharps Hill Road, Maple Avenue Extension and Susan Drive, as the budget allows. The township last month requested $141,748 of rural road paving funds being allocated by the Indiana County commissioners. The county was expected to respond to municipal requests today, Henry said. • Appointed Deborah Maudie, of Lintner Road, to a three-year term on the Burrell Township Library Board. • Appointed Susie Furey to a three-year term and Jeff Furey to a two-year term on the Burrell Township Parks Board. The supervisors appointed them to terms of different lengths as part of a plan to stagger the expiration dates of all the parks board members’ terms. They would be considered for full five-year terms when they become eligible for reappointment. • Announced that the township office will be closed July 3 in observance of Independence Day.

ICTC to offer CDL training program The Indiana County Technology Center is doing its part to help industry stem the shortage of commercial truck drivers in the region. A commercial driver’s license, or CDL, training program will be starting at the Technology Center in late July. ‘“I picked up an issue of The Indiana Gazette in April and the headline read ‘Trucking industry faces shortage of drivers’ and as soon as I got back to the school I started making phone calls,” Eric Palmer, ICTC’s adult education coordinator, said in a release. “A quick scan of the local job openings sealed the deal; Indiana County needed CDL drivers, so we worked with our partners to put together a program to help meet the need.” ICTC has partnered with the Center for Transportation Safety (CTS), a Denverbased company, to deliver the training. Until recently, CTS provided driver training solutions and fleet risk management exclusively to industry and was not offering its curriculum to the public. “Previously, this training was only available to CTS’ private clients that include corporations, nonprofits, municipalities, and state and federal governments. We are excited that CTS has agreed to partner with the technology center to offer this in-demand training. Our students will receive the same quality instruction that CTS has been providing

to its corporate clients for years,” Palmer said. In the classroom, students will receive instruction ranging from general vehicle and process knowledge through adherence to federal guidelines and regulations. Some of the course topics are preventive maintenance and servicing, special situations, general knowledge of the vehicle and proficiency development. Students will receive comprehensive behind-thewheel experience in private training areas as well as out in traffic on public roads. Instructors in the program work with each student on exercises required by the state to issue a CDL license, giving them the skills and knowledge to take their exam with confidence. An open house for the program will be held on Tuesday from noon to 6 p.m. at ICTC. “Visitors will be able to check out a high tech truckdriving simulator, take a look at a training skid car, and meet representatives from the school and trucking companies. We are even giving away a Samsung Galaxy 8.0 tablet,” Palmer said. The first classes are scheduled to begin July 20 and will run in three-week sessions. Visit www.ictccdl.com for more information, or contact the ICTC Admissions Office at (724) 349-6700, ext. 131, or via email at admissions@ ictc.edu.

Dalai Lama to be honored PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Dalai Lama will be honored with Philadelphia’s Liberty Medal for his efforts to promote compassion and human rights around the globe. In announcing the award Wednesday, National Constitution Center CEO Jeffrey

LATE DEATH

Indiana wins Playful City designation for third year Indiana is being honored with a 2015 Playful City USA designation for the third year. In partnership with the Humana Foundation, KaBOOM! is honoring cities, towns and counties across the country for making their communities more playable. Indiana Borough, White Township, the Indiana Area School District and Indiana Recreation and Parks Commission jointly sought the designation. Efforts to make the community more playable continue with the Fourth Ward Playground Project adjacent to White’s Woods, a popular area for hiking and nature exploration. This community effort was made possible by a

KaBoom! grant and a partnership between Indiana Borough and White Township. The playground will be a “community build” project to create a new play space for young people in the neighborhood and visitors to White’s Woods. The cost of the project is about $30,000, half of which is still needed to complete the playground. Anyone who would like to contribute to, or help with the construction of the park, can visit https:// playfulindiana.wordpress. com for more information, call Roland Francis at the Indiana Borough office at (724) 465-6691, or Milt Lady at the White Township office at (724) 463-8585.

BRIEFS

Gazette wire services

Trooper has first overdose save with naloxone UNIONTOWN (AP) — A Pennsylvania state trooper has used the anti-overdose substance naloxone to save an overdose patient for the first time since Gov. Tom Wolf announced that state police would start carrying the drug. The incident was announced by the state police Tuesday, but actually occurred on Friday in Fayette County. Troopers from the Uniontown-area barracks found a man lying on a lawn who appeared to have overdosed. Capt. Harry Keffer, the commander for Troop B, which includes the barracks, said the trooper administered the drug before paramedics arrived and the patient “immediately became conscious and communicative.�

AG’s office defends driving of seized Mercedes SUV HARRISBURG (AP) — The Pennsylvania attorney general’s office is defending an arrangement that allows a top administrator to drive a Mercedes SUV seized in a drug case as his state-issued vehicle. The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported that the office spent about $6,000 to repair acting chief of staff Jonathan Duecker’s 2006 Mercedes R-350. Spokesman Chuck Ardo says having

Duecker drive a seized vehicle saves money compared to leasing a car for $400 a month from a state fleet. Duecker is the former head of the attorney general’s office’s Bureau of Narcotics Investigation. He’s driven the Mercedes for more than a year. Ardo says Duecker is still intimately involved with narcotics investigations, making the arrangement OK under a state law restricting use of vehicles seized in drug cases to use in drug investigations.

No death penalty sought for soldier in murder case ALLENTOWN (AP) — A Pennsylvania prosecutor says he won’t seek the death penalty against a soldier accused of conspiring with his teenage girlfriend to kill her mother. The (Easton) Express-Times newspaper reported Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin said there are no factors supporting capital punishment in the case of Army Spc. Caleb Barnes, 21. Barnes and Jamie Silvonek, 14, were arraigned separately Wednesday in the March stabbing death of Cheryl Silvonek, 54, who was killed in the driveway of her home near Allentown. Prosecutors charged the teenager as an adult, citing text messages they said detailed her role. Defense attorney John Waldron wants the case sent back to juvenile court.

8 plead not guilty in test scheme By JOE MANDAK Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — Eight of 15 Chinese citizens indicted in a conspiracy to take college entrance exams on behalf of others or pay to have their tests taken so they could obtain student visas pleaded not guilty before a federal magistrate Wednesday. Federal prosecutors in Pittsburgh allege they scammed tests run by Educational Testing Service and the College Board — such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT — for more than $5,000 per exam. The alleged scheme involves tests administered in Pittsburgh and its suburbs since 2011. Some of the defendants eventually enrolled in out-of-state schools, though investigators and defense attorneys have refused to supply specifics. Two students arraigned Wednesday were enrolled at Virginia Tech and a third is accused of having someone else take a test whose results were sent to Northeastern University. “Mistakes were clearly made and they’re probably going to end up paying for them,� said defense attorney Lyle Dresbold, who represents Yue Zou, 20, of Blacksburg, Va. Zou and her boyfriend and co-defendant, Yudong Zhang, 21, were listed as students Wednesday on Virginia Tech’s website. Zou is studying finance and Zhang general engineering at the school,

where officials didn’t immediately comment on their status or the test-related charges. Zhang allegedly sent a photocopy of Zou’s passport to a Pittsburgh man, Han Tong, 24, who’s identified as a testtaker, before another woman arraigned Wednesday, Yunlin Sun, 24, of Berlin, Pa., took SAT and English language tests while posing as Zou, according to the indictment. “These aren’t bad people,� Dresbold said. “They just wanted to get an education. They just wanted to get ahead.� But U.S. Attorney David Hickton said the Pittsburgh investigation is just part of an ongoing investigation spurred, in part, by concerns that people from China and other Asian countries have been impersonating others, or otherwise cheating on the tests. That’s a federal issue, Hickton said, “Because if that student status is obtained fraudulently, then that (student) visa is obtained fraudulently.� “Nowhere is it accepted that you can cheat or lie your way into a college, and that’s what this case is about,� Hickton said. Attorneys for Tong, considered a central figure in the charges filed so far, and several other defendants declined comment. Robert Mielnicki, the attorney for Sun, said she “contests the allegations� but declined to elaborate. The only other attorney who spoke was Gary Gerson, who represents

Gong Zhang, 23, also of Pittsburgh. He allegedly took an English fluency exam in April 2013 for another person not named in the indictment. Two others scheduled for arraignments Wednesday had their court appearances postponed, two others have yet to be scheduled for arraignments and three others charged have yet to be identified as their names have been redacted in the mail and wire fraud indictment announced late last month. The others arraigned were: • Biyuan Li, 25, of Boston, who allegedly paid $5,990 to have an unspecified test taken for him; • Siyuan Zhao, 24, of Revere, Mass., who allegedly had Tong take an English fluency test with results sent to Northeastern University; • Songling Peng, 19, of Watertown, Wis., who allegedly wired $5,600 to an unspecified New York bank account for a test taken in his name.

HARRISBURG — A meeting between Gov. Tom Wolf and senior legislative leaders ended Wednesday without a breakthrough on Pennsylvania’s unfinished budget with just two weeks left in the state’s fiscal year. The Democratic governor emerged from the hourlong meeting in the Capitol with senior lawmakers to say he was hopeful he could reach an agreement with the Republican-controlled House and Senate. “I think we’re still working, still making progress,� Wolf said in a brief exchange with reporters. “We’re still having conversations.� Negotiators are juggling several complicated issues, including proposals to increase school spending, slow rising public pension payments, privatize the state’s liquor and wine sales and cut school property taxes. The state has a structural deficit of about $1.2 billion. Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati, R-Jefferson, said liquor privatization was the focus of the

meeting. Scarnati said afterward that he and his fellow Republicans want a counterproposal by Wolf to a House-passed measure that is pending in the Senate. “We clearly have joined liquor and pension reform as two pre-requirements for us to begin discussing the other lines in the budget,� he said. “We can’t have a substantive conversation on anything else until we take these two major issues, apply what would be significant dollars for the deficit, apply those and then have a conversation about how to fill the rest of the hole that would be left.� He said the Senate is “very close� to a deal with the House on liquor privatization but would “prefer to have a product that the governor can sign.� So far Wolf has focused on modernization of the liquor stores rather than privatization, and Scarnati said the governor has given him no indication that his position has changed. More money for public education is the main issue for Democrats, said House Minority Whip Mike Hanna, D-Clinton.

“We are going to continue to insist that any final agreement has to take into consideration our top priority, and I believe it’s also the governor’s top priority,� Hanna said. “If we don’t get something that includes some real serious conversation about education investment, then there isn’t going to be an agreement the governor can sign.� Hanna said he viewed as a positive sign the fact that Republicans had not begun moving toward passage of their own budget bill without the support of Wolf and other Democrats. “The fact that the Republican leaders have indicated they’re not prepared to jam through their own budget this week clearly indicates that they’re willing to talk about all of these issues,� Hanna said. Wolf has said his priorities are getting more money to public schools through a tax on natural gas drilling in the Marcellus shale formation, a budget built on sustainable revenues rather than stopgap fixes and reductions in the widely hated local property taxes that fund schools.

Dems adopting GOP strategy

n the unending battles of Capitol Hill, congressional Democrats have held one highly prized parcel of political high ground that has given them an enviable public image advantage over Republicans. For years — decades, really — Americans have basically associated Republicans with performing as the Party of No that, while promoting cherished conservative causes, produced gridlock and forced government shutdowns. These shutdowns proved unpopular when they interrupted the flow of federal benefits and programs to people and businesses. It’s been that way ever since the illfated 1995 government shutdown promulgated by former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich. The 2013 partial shutdown that featured a 21-hour filibuster by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, reinforced the perception. And Republicans pushed the nation to the brink of yet another shutdown in February, after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell chose to tack on to a Homeland Security funding bill unrelated provisions to halt President Barack Obama’s immigration executive orders. That proved so unpopular that McMartin Schram is Connell belatedly scrapped his plan. a veteran Now this: In a new, aggressive battle Washington strategy, frustrated Senate Democratic journalist, author leaders have decided to leave their public and TV image high-ground unprotected and documentary launch a Democratic version of the conexecutive. His gressional combat strategy long made incolumn is famous (or famous) by their Republican distributed by opponents. Retiring Senate Minority Tribune News Leader Harry Reid and his successor-inService. waiting, Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., marshaled their troops to embark on a coordinated thrust. Senate Democrats will filibuster and Just Say “No!” to every single appropriations bill. And they will keep saying “No!” until Republicans agree to finally negotiate an end to the draconian sequester cuts that were clamped on two years ago. The sequester, you recall, was proposed by both sides just as a congressional cattle prod — because everyone agreed the sequestered cuts were so unacceptably low they would force a much-needed compromise. Except, no one ever compromised. So the unacceptably low figures have remained unacceptably in place ever since. Well, that’s not exactly right. Because to get around the low defense figures that endangered America’s security, Republicans have come up with a screwball look-the-other-way budgetary workaround. Republicans devised an Overseas Contingency Operations category that somehow was allowed to add $37.5 billion in off-budget spending to the already-sequester-cut defense funding. “We will not vote to proceed to the Defense appropriations bill or any appropriations bills until Republicans have sat down at the table and figured out with us how we’re going to properly fund the Defense Department … and our families’ domestic needs,” Schumer declared a week ago, trumpeting the Democrats’ new battle plan with all the subtlety of a bugler sounding Teddy Roosevelt’s charge up San Juan Hill. Indeed, Reid, the Senate Democrats’ leader, had policy logic on his side as he explained his rationale. “Everyone thought it was so stupid when sequestration kicked in, but now ‘the stupid’ is part of Republican official policy — it’s what they like,” said Reid, D-Nev., as quoted by Politico.com. “Republicans have decided to go it alone on the appropriations process and move forward on bills they know will be vetoed. I think it’s just outrageous.” But you won’t be shocked to know that Republicans could barely conceal their jubilation. Finally they could accuse Democrats of wanting to force a government shutdown (although actually the shutdown won’t come until Sept. 30). Gleeful Grand Old Party leaders are making sure Democrats will be saying their first “No!” to the defense appropriation, then to veterans’ funding and so on. The only time they weren’t waving the American flag when the cameras showed up was when they were wrapping themselves in it. “Underscoring their devotion to D.C. dysfunction, Democrats are now threatening to deny funding for the brave men and women who protect us, their families, and veterans in a childish gambit to wrest billions more for wasteful bureaucracies like the IRS,” Majority Leader McConnell told Politico. “Though their behavior is completely discordant with the real challenges facing our country, we nonetheless intend to work our way through this.” Judged only by their policy and responsibility merits, the Democrats are absolutely right. The goofy sequester gambit was an absurd idea that not only backfired on both parties, but also torpedoed any prospect of bipartisanship. But Senate Democrats may be damaging their cause in the one way Republicans could never have hurt them — by making themselves look, to ordinary Americans, like just another bunch of Just Say “No!” Republicans.

he last time Jeb Bush ran for office, it was 13 years ago. Barack Obama was serving in the Illinois state Senate. No one had heard of Obamacare or the tea party, and wouldn’t for years. It was before the invasion of Iraq, before Hurricane Katrina, before the financial meltdown. We had just invaded Afghanistan, and Saddam Hussein still ruled Iraq. It was a political epoch ago. If timing is everything in politics, Bush has, among other things, a timing problem. He had an exemplary record as a conservative reformer in Florida almost a decade ago, but the achievements and fights of the other Republican governors running for president have been the stuff of contemporary headlines. He is a gifted politician, but his father and brother preceded him to the presidency, giving his campaign an inevitable dynastic air as the vehicle of “the third Bush.” The phrase “shock and awe,” associated with the Bush campaign at its inception, is now exclusively used to discuss the gap between its expectations and performance.

the general, it seemed a poetic (not to mention nonsensical) exaggeration, but occasionally it’s appeared to be his actual plan. He can come off as a scold. When he says how optimistic and inclusive he will be, it sounds like he thinks most everyone else in the GOP is pessimistic and exclusionary. The party won’t naturally warm to someone who seems to think it has to be saved from itself. And there will, of course, be no winning the general without winning the primary. Bush gave a spirited announcement speech to a boisterous crowd in Miami, the best public moment of his campaign so far. The party will need to know he’s a fighter, and chiefly of the left and the media, not his own side. It will need to know that he has an agenda new and different from his brother, and much broader and more conservative than his famous stances on immigration and Common Core. Bush is a genuinely accomplished executive and a creative policy wonk, with a natural sense of authority. He is a talented man, in the political fight of his life. comments.lowry @nationalreview.com

Reflecting on my father’s watch By MICHAEL CARROLL

For The Philadelphia Inquirer

W

hen I was in my 20s, my father gave me his retirement watch, a Hamilton, with a warm and elegant face. It was an early electric model, and made symbolic sense since he retired from the power and light company. Before the electric company, he worked for a dozen years in Pennsylvania’s anthracite coal mines, with a World War II stint in the Navy sandwiched in. Dad survived, but many of his shipmates on the USS Bryant did not. Family lore has it that my mother’s good sense prevailed to get him out of the mines even though he had to take a big pay cut. It was a good move, because most of the mines closed in the decade after he left. His lungs would fail too soon in his life, but would have quit even earlier if he’d stayed in the mines. The Hamilton was a hybrid with a balance wheel like watches have had for centuries, but instead of being powered by a main spring it used electric power from a battery. This was before quartz electric watches all but eliminated the old spring-powered devices. Quartz time-

THE UNIVERSE sometimes has a sense of humor, and my father would certainly be smiling, maybe laughing aloud, at the way the world has spun. pieces can look on the outside like the Hamilton, with the same sort of faces and hands as their mechanical ancestors. But, inside, the quartz electronics have nothing much in common with the heart of their mechanical brethren. That Hamilton was a little like Dad, with one foot in the past and one stepping forward into an uncertain future. Its back was shiny gold with his name engraved on it. Years later it would be my son’s name as well. Grabbing top billing above Thomas Carroll was the company name, PP&L. Below was an acknowledgement of his 27 years of service. I could appreciate that number more four decades later. But then? You would never find me in a job that long. And yet I recently reached a milestone on my job: 28 years. No watch yet. The universe sometimes has a sense of humor, and my father would certainly be smiling, maybe laughing aloud, at the way the world has spun.

For a decade and a half after college, I changed jobs every few years. In the years after law school, I worked in legal aid jobs in southern West Virginia, Atlantic City, N.J., and then Camden, N.J., before finding my employment home in Philadelphia, where I would break Dad’s endurance record. My work has not always been easy. But I have been lucky to have had the chance to do the work I chose. Many people are not so lucky. Maybe most. Fortunately, I was not dragged into a private practice, where I would have had to spend time and psychic energy collecting money from people I served — something I would have probably been very bad at doing. I have good friends who have engaged in private law practices honestly and honorably, and I am no better than them. But, instead of that life, I have been able to devote my legal career to working for people who needed me but could not pay. My job is once again offer-

ing a buyout of sorts to encourage people to take a voluntary layoff in order to avoid involuntary ones. My employer made a similar offer a few years ago, and now has sweetened that deal. The old offer was a payment of $500 for each year of service. The new one is $600, capped at about 26 years. Instead of the old two months of health insurance, it is now three, unless of course you are age-eligible for Medicare, in which case zero months are offered. Not a whole lot sweeter this offer, but a little less bitter. I cannot imagine my coworkers rushing to take the offer — unless they were planning to leave anyway and decided to take the money and run. Or unless they were told they would be laid off — in which case it would probably make sense to pocket the money rather than leave with nothing. I am not ready to take the deal and go, but I am sure Dad would be amused — especially if they threw in a watch. Michael Carroll is a Philadelphia writer. He wrote this for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

U.N.: Refugees reach record high BERLIN (AP) — Syria overtook Afghanistan to become the world’s biggest source of refugees last year, while the number of people forced from their homes by conflicts worldwide rose to a record 59.5 million, the United Nations’ refugee agency said today. Pointing to crises in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Burundi and elsewhere, U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres said he doesn’t expect any improvement in 2015. The report comes at a time when Europe is grappling with how to deal with a flood of new migrants crossing the Mediterranean to escape fighting in Syria, Libya and elsewhere. UNHCR estimated that a total of 59.5 million people worldwide had been displaced by conflict by the end of last year — including 38.2 million displaced within their own countries. That was up from 51.2 million in 2013 — the previous highest since the U.N. began collecting numbers in the early 1950s.

Feds: Man charged in alleged ISIS plot NEW YORK (AP) — A second college student was arrested on Wednesday in the investigation of an alleged plot to support the Islamic State group by using homemade explosives to attack New York City targets. Fereed Mumuni, 21, was ordered held without bail on attempted murder charges accusing him of trying to kill an FBI agent with a large kitchen knife in a struggle while agents were executing a search warrant at his Staten Island home. The agent escaped serious harm thanks to his body armor, authorities said. Court papers described Mumuni as a co-conspirator of Munther Omar Saleh, another college student whose arrest on charges of supporting terrorism was announced Tuesday.

Pope urges ‘cultural revolution’ By NICOLE WINFIELD, RACHEL ZOLL and SETH BORENSTEIN Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis called today for a bold cultural revolution to correct what he calls the “structurally perverse” economic system of the rich exploiting the poor that is turning Earth into an “immense pile of filth.” In a sweeping manifesto aimed at spurring action in U.N. climate negotiations, domestic politics and everyday life, Francis explains the science of global warming, which he blames on an unfair, fossil fuel-based industrial model that he says harms the poor most. Citing Scripture and past popes’ and bishops’ appeals, he urges people of all faiths and no faith to undergo an awakening to save God’s creation for future generations. It’s an indictment of big business and climate doubters alike. “It is not enough to balance, in the medium term, the protection of nature with financial gain, or the preservation of the environment with progress,” he writes. “Halfway measures simply delay the inevitable disaster. Put simply, it is a matter of redefining our notion of progress.” Environmental scientists

said the first-ever encyclical, or teaching document, on the environment could have a dramatic effect on the climate debate, lending the moral authority of the immensely popular Francis to an issue that has long been cast in purely political, economic and scientific terms. Veerabhadran Ramanathan, a Scripps Institution of Oceanography scientist, said the encyclical would be a “game-changer in making people think about this.” “It’s not politics anymore,” he said, adding that science is usually difficult for people to understand but that people respond to arguments framed by morality and ethics. The energy lobby was quick to criticize the encyclical and its anti-fossil fuel message. “The simple reality is that energy is the essential building block of the modern world,” said Thomas Pyle of the Institute of Energy Research, a conservative freemarket group. “The application of affordable energy makes everything we do — food production, manufacturing, health care, transportation, heating and air conditioning — better.” Francis said he hoped his effort would lead ordinary people in their daily lives and

POPE FRANCIS ... penned encyclical decision-makers at critical U.N. climate meetings later this year to a wholesale change of mind and heart, saying “both the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor” must now be heard. “This vision of ‘might is right’ has engendered immense inequality, injustice and acts of violence against the majority of humanity, since resources end up in the hands of the first comer or the most powerful: the winner takes all,” he writes. “Completely at odds with this model are the ideals of harmony, justice, fraternity and peace as proposed by Jesus.” The encyclical “Laudato

Si,” (Praise Be) is 191 pages of pure Francis. It’s a blunt, readable booklet full of zingers that will make many conservatives and climate doubters squirm, including in the U.S. Congress, where Francis will deliver the firstever papal address in September. It will likely put several U.S. presidential candidates in the hot seat since some Republicans, Catholics among them, doubt the science behind global warming and have said the pope should stay away from the debate. “I don’t think we should politicize our faith,” U.S. Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush, a Catholic convert, said on the eve of the encyclical’s release. “I think religion ought to be about making us better as people and less about things that end up getting into the political realm.” Yet one of Francis’ core points is that there really is no distinction between human beings, their faith and the environment. “Everything is related, and we human beings are united as brothers and sisters on a wonderful pilgrimage, woven together by the love God has for each of his creatures and which also unites us in fond affection with brother sun, sister moon, brother river

CHURCH DAMAGED IN FIRE

FAA investigating close call at Midway CHICAGO (AP) — Two passenger jets began to take off at the same time on intersecting runways at Chicago’s Midway International Airport, prompting a controller to shout over the radio for one of the pilots to halt to avoid a collision, aviation officials said Wednesday. The Federal Aviation Administration was investigating Tuesday night’s near miss in which each plane stopped about 2,000 feet from the runway intersection. Southwest Airlines Flight 3828 to Tulsa, Okla., had been cleared for takeoff and was speeding down the runway. At the same time, an air traffic controller saw Delta Air Lines Flight 1328 to Atlanta beginning to take off on the intersecting runway without proper clearance, the FAA said. Delta spokesman Morgan Durrant said the airline was cooperating with the investigation but that he could not provide any information on what might have led to the runway mix-up.

Robot with ‘heart’ set to go on sale URAYASU, Japan (AP) — Technology company Softbank’s Pepper robot is going on sale in Japan on Saturday, equipped with a “heart” designed to not only recognize human emotions but react with simulations of anger, joy and irritation. The robot, which has no legs and moves on wheels, was shown to reporters and guests at a Tokyo-area theater today. It has a hairless head and moving arms and went through a year of software development after first being announced. It glided proudly onto the stage, conversed with celebrity guests, did a dance, sang a birthday song and demonstrated how it could record family life in photos and serve as a companion. It appeared to respond with joy when it was praised or stroked.

and mother earth,” he writes. The chemist-turned-pope takes as fact that the world is getting warmer and that human activity is mostly to blame. “The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth,” he writes. Citing the deforestation of the Amazon, the melting of Arctic glaciers and the death of coral reefs, he rebukes “obstructionist” climate doubters who “seem mostly to be concerned with masking the problems or concealing their symptoms.” And he blames politicians for listening more to oil industry interests than Scripture or common sense. He praises a “less is more” lifestyle that he is known for, one that shuns air conditioners and gated communities in favor of car pools, recycling and being in close touch with the poor and marginalized. He calls for courageous, radical and farsighted policies to transition the world’s energy supply from fossil fuels to renewable sources, saying mitigation schemes like the buying and selling of carbon credits won’t solve the problem and are just a “ploy which permits maintaining the excessive consumption of some countries and sectors.”

A NUN surveyed heavy damage today at the Church of the Multiplication after a fire broke out in the middle of the night near the Sea of Galilee in Tabgha, Israel. Israeli spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said police are investigating whether the fire was deliberate and are searching for suspects. A passage from a Jewish prayer, calling for the wiping out of idol worship, was found scrawled in red spray paint on a wall outside the church. A monk and a church volunteer were hospitalized from smoke inhalation, according to Father Matthias Karl, a German monk.

Lack of Iraqi recruits hinders U.S. training effort, Carter says By DEB RIECHMANN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The U.S. will fall way short of meeting its goal of training 24,000 Iraqi forces to fight Islamic State militants by this fall, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Wednesday on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers are already skeptical of the Obama administration’s strategy to address threats in the Mideast. Carter told the House Armed Services Committee that the U.S. has received only enough recruits to train about 7,000 — in addition to about 2,000 counterterrorism service personnel. “Our training efforts in Iraq have thus far been slowed by a lack of trainees. We simply haven’t received enough recruits,” Carter said at a nearly three-hour hearing. Carter said the train-and-equip mission in Syria also lacks enough trainees to fill existing training sites, primarily because it’s difficult to make sure the recruits are people who can be counted on and are not aligned with groups like IS. “It turns out to be very hard to identify people who meet both of those criteria,” Carter said. Later in the day, the House rejected a resolution to force Congress to debate an Authorization for the Use of Military Force for U.S. military engagement against IS in Iraq and Syria. The measure, which was defeated 288-139, would have directed that U.S. troops be withdrawn from the fight within 30 days of passage — or

by the end of the year if Obama determines an immediate withdrawal is not safe — if Congress failed to approve a new authorization. Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern of Massachusetts said the resolution was needed to “force Congress to do its job” and vote on an authorization. Opponents called the measure dangerous, saying it could lead the U.S. to “walk away” from the region, leaving it more unsettled. There are no U.S. troops in Syria and about 3,500 in Iraq assisting the nation’s security forces. The Iraqi military, which was equipped and trained by the United States, has struggled to recover from its collapse a year ago when IS militants captured the country’s secondlargest city, Mosul, and swept over much of northern and western Iraq. Iraqi commanders fled, pleas for more ammunition went unanswered, and in some cases soldiers stripped off their uniforms and ran. The U.S. is again training Iraqi forces and conducting airstrikes in both Iraq and Syria. The White House announced last week that it was sending up to 450 more U.S. troops to a new base in the Anbar province of western Iraq, mainly to advise the Iraqis on planning and execution of a counteroffensive to retake Ramadi, the provincial capital. More such U.S. hubs could be opened elsewhere in Iraq as the campaign advances. Staunch critics in Congress have argued that the current strategy is weak and that it could be strengthened by deploying U.S. troops as spotters for

airstrikes. The Pentagon thus far has avoided putting tactical air controllers in the field with Iraqi ground forces and remains opposed to putting U.S. boots on the ground. “I would not recommend that we put U.S. forces in harm’s way simply to stiffen the spine of local forces,” Gen. Martin Dempsey told the committee. “If their spine is not stiffened by the threat of ISIL on their way of life, nothing we do is going to stiffen their spine,” he said using an acronym for the Islamic State. Dempsey, who is finishing a fouryear stint as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said that when the local forces are going against a strategic target, the Pentagon might see how U.S. forces could help ensure the local forces’ chances of success — “but not just to stiffen their spine.” Asked whether the 450 extra troops will make a difference in the fight against IS, Carter said the numbers are not as significant as the location, which is in the heart of Sunni territory. The U.S. is pushing for a more inclusive government in Baghdad that is representative of Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds, Iraq’s three major ethnic groups. At the White House, press secretary Josh Earnest defended the White House strategy in Iraq, saying 1,000 new Sunni fighters were inducted into the Iraqi popular mobilization force last week. “I understand that even just today, another ceremony was held where several hundred additional Sunni local fighters were inducted,” he said.

The Federal Communications Commission on Wednesday said it planned to fine AT&T Mobility $100 million, accusing the company of misleading millions of wireless customers with unlimited data plans by slowing down their service without adequately informing them. The agency said that once customers had used a certain amount of data, AT&T delivered service that was significantly slower than advertised, affecting subscribers’ ability to do things like stream video or use GPS mapping services. By slowing the speed of service without disclosing it to consumers, the agency said, AT&T violated a 2010 rule that required greater openness to customers. It is the first time the FCC has accused a company of violating that rule, and the fine is the largest ever proposed by the agency. Wednesday’s announcement also raises new questions about whether the agency will take a more aggressive stance toward wireless and landline Internet service providers after even stricter disclosure requirements took effect last Friday. The new requirements are part of the FCC rules approved in February that regulate broadband Internet service more like a utility. “Consumers deserve to get what they pay for,” Tom Wheeler, the Democratic chairman of the FCC, said Wednesday. “Broadband providers must be upfront and transparent about the services they provide.” AT&T began offering unlimited data plans in 2007, according to the FCC, and in 2011 it began capping data speeds for consumers enrolled in unlimited plans who had already exceeded a certain amount of data in a single billing cycle, a practice known as throttling. That capped data speed, the agency said, “significantly impaired” users’ access to the Internet. Michael Balmoris, a spokesman for AT&T, said the company planned to “vigorously dispute” the regulatory agency’s accusations. “The FCC has specifically identified this practice as a legitimate and reasonable way to manage network resources for the benefit of all customers, and has known for years that all of the major carriers use it,” Balmoris wrote in an email. “We have been fully transparent with our customers, providing notice in multiple ways,” he wrote, pointing to a notice posted to the wireless carrier’s website.

EVERYDAY CHEAPSKATE I wish I had all of the money I’ve spent over the years on manicures — both professional and doit-myself. I’d have quite a tidy sum and still be stuck with these horrible nails and even worse cuticles. Thankfully, after untold trials and errors, I’ve come up with a six-part manicure routine that has turned my nail life Email around — questions or and keeps tips to me out of mary@every the pricey daycheap nail skate.com or salon. Everyday By way Cheapskate, of a little 12340 Seal history Beach Blvd., and just Suite B-416, so you Seal Beach, CA know, 90740. over the years I’ve done the acrylic thing (don’t even get me started on what years of that did to my natural nails). I’ve also tried wraps, gels, hot oil and even superglue. My cuticles have been snipped, nipped, ripped and clipped. I’ve purchased expensive lotions, potions and nail notions but to no avail. Nothing has ever worked longterm. I’d just about given up completely on finding a reasonable and workable solution for my nails when finally, I put together a routine with specific products that has given my nails a brand new life. I’ve been testing this for about six months now and can report without hesitation: This is it! The best doit-yourself manicure and nail care program ever for anyone with dry, cracked, horrible cuticles and jagged, splitting, peeling nails. My routine requires one tool and five products. The initial purchase might seem high until you consider that at around $25 a pop plus tip for a professional manicure, an investment in these six items pays for itself in a month or two. • Glass nail file. This is the secret to keeping my nails smooth as a baby’s bum. I use it almost daily to keep my nails nice and smooth. No more jagged edges, splitting or peeling. • Avoplex Nail & Cuticle Replenishing Oil. There are lots of products out there that promise good cuticle health, and I’ve tried them all. This is the only one that works for me. I call it Miracle in a Bottle. I applied this oil twice daily for two weeks and the results were amazing. Now I apply once a day. So easy and with beautiful results. • Chip Skip. Another little miracle product from OPI, this makes everything stick to my nails and stay there for what seems like 10 times longer than without it, even as I spend hours every day pounding on this keyboard. • Original Nail Envy Nail Strengthener. There are lots of competitors out there, but this is the only one that has ever worked for me. And when I say “worked,” I mean with amazing results. • OPI Nail Lacquer. Of all the brands of polish available, this is the one that I can count on to not get thick before its time. Used with the products above, it doesn’t chip or fall off like a bad wallpapering job, which has happened to me on more than one occasion. If you’re curious, currently, my favorite color is “Lincoln Park After Dark.” • Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. I’d take a bath in this stuff, if that were even possible. That’s how much I love it. I’ll tell you why in a bit. There you go, the six secrets to the perfect do-ityourself manicures. It strikes me that these six products, beautifully placed in a small box or basket, would make the best gift ever for Mother’s Day, a bridal shower, graduation or birthday.

CLUB NEWS BLAIRSVILLE ELKS #406 LADIES AUXILIARY President Mary Ann Thomas called the meeting of the Blairsville Elks 406 Ladies Auxiliary to order. Twelve members were present, including eight officers. Absent from the meeting were the left guard, chair filled by Sharon Angelo; the right guard, chair filled by Pam DeCarlo; and two trustees. A motion was made by former president Shirley Jones and seconded by parliamentarian Marie Kenney to approve the minutes of the previous meeting with the following correction: Mary Ann Thomas’ daughter-in-law was in the hospital for three months rather than three weeks. The treasurer’s report was placed on file for audit. Bill Shelaske passed away. Martha Miller is still improving. Becky Provich is sick. Marge Patz’s sister came through surgery well, but her spirits are not good and she is back in the hospital. Mary Ann Thomas’ daughter-inlaw is still in the hospital but seems to be improving. Also, Mary Ann’s husband is now walking and breathing better. Annette Lucas had her cataract removed and was at

the meeting. Prayers are needed for the Angelo family as Sharon’s husband, Tony Angelo, had three more stints and their 7-year old grandson was going in for tests. Shirley Jones thanked everyone for the thoughts and prayers she received while she was in the hospital. The scholarship winners were announced. They include Ella Wodowski’s greatgranddaughter Aprile Koffman, of Saltsburg Middle/ High School; Ron and Pat Suman’s grandson Troy Bolega, of Derry Area High School; and Josh Goldberg’s cousin Trista Campbell, of Blairsville High School. Only Aprile was present at the meeting along with her parents, sister and little brother. Troy and Trista were not available due to the date change of the meeting. The secretary will mail out the instructions on how to obtain their scholarships. Aprile introduced her family and told the ladies auxiliary that she will be attending IUP in the fall to major in criminology with the goal of becoming an immigrant and customs inspector. A thank-you letter was given by the Janessa Fleming Memorial Fund and stated that the auxiliary will be list-

ed as one of the donors in their publication, unless the club objected. No one objected. The discussion concerning meetings being kept downstairs is to be tabled until the September meeting. The question concerning who will set up if the meeting is downstairs is to be discussed. The 50/50 winner was Ella Wodowski, who won $6.50. Celebrated birthdays included Marge Patz on June 22 and Ella Wodowski and Del Bernazzoli, who will share a birthday on July 19. A motion was made by Nancy Shurina and seconded by Evelyn Bondra to pay the bills. The motion was carried. Nancy Shurina hosted the luncheon with Sharon Angelo and Pam DeCarlo helping. Ham and cheese sandwiches, cake and ice cream was served. The tables were decorated with white tablecloths with place setting alternating between scholarship winners’ school colors. Next month’s hostesses are Mary Ann Thomas, Kathy Cardellino and Kathy Cobler. The president properly closed the meeting at 7:50 p.m.

BE SURE to schedule downtime to relax.

How to keep stress out of summer vacation Mayo Clinic News Network PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis. — You may not think that summer and stress go together, but they often do. Routines change frequently, and downtime can lead to complaining and sibling squabbles. Summertime events, such as graduations, family reunions and vacations, come with their own set of stressors. So, what can you do to stress less and have more fun this summer? Dixie Jackson, behavioral health specialist at Mayo Clinic Health System, offers a few time management tips and stress relievers to help you and your family enjoy the summer. Involve the kids in setting up routines for the summer. Cooperation will be much greater if children are part of the activity-planning process. If you’re home with your children during the summer, try to set aside alone time

with each child. Find some projects on which the whole family can work together. You’ll be getting your chores done and spending time together as a family. If your children are older, give them a set of daily chores they need to complete before they can play. They can tidy their rooms, make their beds or put away dishes. Plan some low-cost summer activities for the family, like camping in the backyard or afternoons at the swimming pool. Embrace downtime. The school year can be stressful — kids need downtime to rest and restore. “Family vacations are a wonderful time to create lasting memories with your children, but they do come with their own set of headaches,” says Jackson. “There’s a lot of extra effort when traveling with children — planning activities for

them, packing their stuff and getting them ready.” Jackson offers these suggestions to help you manufacture a smoother trip: Make sure each family member is involved. Your vacation may not necessarily be ideal for the entire time, but it can work for each family member. Try to balance days when everyone participates in a shared activity and days when individual members can do their own thing. Be flexible. Expect the unexpected, and be ready to roll with the punches. Value unscheduled time. Your family doesn’t need to see all the sights or ride all the rides at the amusement park to have a successful trip. The most important part of vacation is spending time together. Summer vacation should be enjoyable for everyone. If you start feeling stressed, try some of these tips to add more fun and less stress to your summer.

Dolezal admonished for misconduct

Prosecutor: Woman discussed having pair kill husband By MARY ESCH Associated Press

PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. — Authorities said a woman who provided hacksaw blades, chisels and other tools to two convicted murderers who escaped from a maximum-security prison discussed having them kill her husband. Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie said at a news conference Wednesday that Joyce Mitchell had talked to inmates Richard Matt and David Sweat about killing her husband, Lyle, who also works at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, near the Canadian border. Sweat and Matt escaped from 170-year-old prison in far northern New York on June 6 and have yet to be apprehended. Joyce Mitchell, a prison tailoring shop instructor who befriended the inmates, was arrested June 12. Lyle Mitchell voluntarily gave a statement to authorities during a three-hour session at the state police barracks in Malone on Wednesday, the Press-Republican of Plattsburgh reported. His lawyer, Peter Dumas, said Lyle Mitchell will not be charged in connection

with the escape, the newspaper reported. Investigators have no information that Lyle Mitchell knew about the escape plan or assisted in it, Wylie said. Meanwhile, state police expanded the search for the killers beyond a 16-squaremile area of woods, fields and swamps where the manhunt has been most intense. Police were checking the hundreds, if not thousands, of seasonal homes and hunting camps in the region and stepped up roving patrols. Officials said the number of law enforcement officers involved in the search had been reduced from more than 800 earlier in the week to more than 600 Wednesday. State police said Wednesday that they have “no hard evidence” that Sweat and Matt were able to leave the area. But they cautioned that the lack of evidence doesn’t mean the escapees are somewhere near the prison. Sweat, 35, was serving a life sentence without parole in the killing of a sheriff’s deputy. Matt, 48, was doing 25 years to life for the kidnap, torture and hacksaw dismemberment of his former boss.

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Two top Spokane city officials have called for Rachel Dolezal, the former Spokane NAACP president, to resign immediately as head of the city’s volunteer police ombudsman commission. Mayor David Condon and Spokane Council President Ben Stuckart on Wednesday called for Dolezal and two others to step down from the five-member commission after an independent investigation found the three commissioners acted improperly and violated government rules. The report says the evidence and interviews confirm workplace harassment allegations and “a pattern of misconduct” by Dolezal, the chairwoman, and commissioners Kevin Berkompas and Adrian Dominguez. The city hired lawyers in May to investigate whistleblower and workplace harassment complaints filed in April by an unidentified city employee who staffed

the commission. The report found that Dolezal violated city workplace harassment policy, acted outside her authority and leaked confidential information about police misconduct investigations in public meetings. KHQ-TV reported that Dolezal said in a statement she would not resign, adding she and the two others had done nothing wrong. She said they had “done our best each step of the way and double-checked our actions with legal counsel.” “The work is tough, and certainly there is a degree of expected push-back from the institution, but the level of harassment and sabotage by city government is completely undeserved and inappropriate,” her statement said. In a joint statement Wednesday, Condon and Stuckart said: “We are deeply disturbed by the facts contained in the report of findings from the independent investigator. The conduct is unaccept-

able and falls far short of the community’s expectations of volunteers who sit on City boards and commissions.” The report has been forwarded to the City Council for review. It will determine what action should be taken. Reached by phone, Berkompas said: “I just got the report and I’m not ready to comment on it.” Emails and calls to Dominguez were not immediately returned Wednesday. According to the report, Dolezal violated city workplace harassment policy when she “engaged in conduct that humiliated, insulted or degraded” a city worker. The report accused her and another commissioner of manipulating commission meeting minutes outside of public meetings. It also said she breached her duty to keep information confidential when she identified individuals involved in police misconduct investigations in public meetings.

Treasury to choose woman for $10 bill By MARTIN CRUTSINGER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON — Alexander Hamilton, who has been featured on the $10 bill since 1929, is making way for a woman. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew was to officially announce today that a redesign of the $10 will feature the first woman on the nation’s paper money in more than a century. The plan is to decide

which woman sometime this summer. The bill will have new security features to make it harder to counterfeit and will be unveiled in 2020, the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote. The date it will be put into circulation will be announced later. Lew is asking the public for suggestions on who should be chosen for the bill, as well

as what symbols of democracy it should feature. Ideas can be submitted by visiting thenew10.treasury.gov website. Various groups have been campaigning to get a woman honored on the nation’s paper currency, which has been an all-male domain for more than a century. The last woman featured on U.S. paper money was Martha Washington, who was on a dollar silver certificate from

1891 to 1896. The only other woman ever featured on U.S. paper money was Pocahontas, from 1865 to 1869. Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea are on dollar coins. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, DNew Hampshire, who is sponsoring legislation to put a woman on the $20 bill, praised Lew for moving forward with a decision to use the $10 bill, which is the next denomination of currency scheduled to be redesigned.

“While it may not be the twenty dollar bill, make no mistake, this is a historic announcement,” Shaheen said in a statement. “Young girls across this country will soon be able to see an inspiring woman on the ten dollar bill.” A grass-roots group, Women on 20s, had been pushing to get a woman’s portrait on the $20 bill, which currently features Andrew Jackson. They had conducted

an online poll that gathered over 600,000 votes. AfricanAmerican abolitionist Harriett Tubman was the top choice in that poll. Lew said that Hamilton, the nation’s first Treasury secretary, would still be honored in some way. He said one possibility being considered would keep Hamilton’s portrait on some of the redesigned $10 bills. Lew said no final decision had been made yet.

Lawmakers look to address disparity in school funding

DAVID GOLDMAN/Associated Press

WORSHIPPERS EMBRACED following a group prayer Wednesday across the street from Emanuel AME Church.

Gunman kills nine in S.C. church Continued from Page 1 him the youngest member of the House at the time. “He never had anything bad to say about anybody, even when I thought he should,” Rutherford, D-Columbia, said. “He was always out doing work either for his parishioners or his constituents. He touched everybody.” The suspect was described as a white man in his early 20s. Mullen said he believed the attack was a hate crime and a Justice Department spokesman said federal officials were opening a hate crime investigation. The spokesman spoke on condition of anonymity. “We want to identify this individual and arrest him before he hurts anyone else,” the chief said. Mullen said he had no reason to think the suspect has left the Charleston area, but was distributing information about him and the vehicle around the country. Mullen said the scene at the church was chaotic when police arrived, and officers thought they had the suspect tracked with a police dog, but he got away. “We will put all effort, we will put all resources, and we will put all of our energy into finding this individual who committed this crime tonight,” he said.

Charleston Police Department

SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGE shows the suspect. Charleston Mayor Joseph P. Riley Jr. called the shooting “an unfathomable and unspeakable act by somebody filled with hate and with a deranged mind.” “Of all cities, in Charleston, to have a horrible, hateful person go into the church and kill people there to pray and worship with each other is something that is beyond any comprehension and is not explained,” Riley said. “We are going to put our arms around that church and that church family.” In a statement, NAACP President and CEO Cornell William Brooks condemned the shooting. “There is no greater coward than a criminal who enters a house of God and slaughters innocent people engaged in the study of Scripture,” Brooks said. The attack came two months after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man, Walter Scott, by a white police officer in neighboring North Charleston that sparked major protests and highlighted racial tensions in

the area. The officer has been charged with murder, and the shooting prompted South Carolina lawmakers to push through a bill helping all police agencies in the state get body cameras. Pinckney was a sponsor of that bill. Soon after Wednesday’s shooting, a group of pastors huddled together praying in a circle across the street. Community organizer Christopher Cason said he felt certain the shootings were racially motivated. “I am very tired of people telling me that I don’t have the right to be angry,” he said. “I am very angry right now.” The Emmanuel AME church is a historic AfricanAmerican church that traces its roots to 1816, when several churches split from Charleston’s Methodist Episcopal church. One of its founders, Denmark Vesey, tried to organize a slave revolt in 1822. He was caught, and white landowners had his church burned in revenge. Parishioners worshipped underground until after the Civil War.

Penns Manor union president: Furloughs will hurt education Continued from Page 1 The district did not receive a response, he said. “It’s unfortunate the leadership of the association politicized the furloughs,” Packer said. “It’s something that they’ve been made aware of six or seven months ago.” Susan Wheatley was the only school board director to vote against the furloughs on June 11, saying after the meeting the staffing reductions were a move against the teachers because of contract negotiations that have been ongoing since early 2013. The contract expired June 30, 2013. “Despite the association’s best efforts, we have been unable to reach a settlement

“FURLOUGHS mean larger class sizes and less individualized attention for our students. Furloughs also eliminate professional positions in our community.” Dan Antonacci,

with the Penns Manor board of school directors,” Antonacci said. “The teachers of the PMEA will continue to work towards reaching a settlement that is fair and equitable, but both parties must be willing to find solutions

that work for the community and the teaching staff. We hope our next bargaining session proves more fruitful.” Packer maintains that Penns Manor’s current labor deal is costing the district about $1 million more per year in salaries and benefits than other school districts he has analyzed by plugging the district’s teacher contracts into labor deals at other districts. “Penns Manor is not in a position to keep paying $1 million more per year for that labor agreement,” he said. “It’s just not right. We can’t afford to let the leadership of the association hold our taxpayers hostage or our students hostage.”

Continued from Page 1 relatively small districts neighbor each other and are similar in enrollment. But Purchase Line is getting about $8,700 per student, based on the latest average enrollment figures available, while Curwensville gets about $6,500 per student, about onethird less. Or take Northampton Area School District in Northampton County and Wilson School District in Berks County. About 30 miles apart and nearly identical in average enrollment and wealth, Northampton gets about $2,300 per student while Wilson gets barely half that. “It makes no sense,” said Arnold Hillman, a former superintendent and a founder of the Pennsylvania Association of Rural and Small Schools. “It hasn’t made sense in years.” The disparities, which go back 25 years, are under the microscope as the state tries to confront it. The 15-member Basic Education Funding Commission, created by a law last June, is scheduled to produce recommendations after nearly a year of study and hearings. For some, a fix is overdue. Pennsylvania is repeatedly found to harbor among the nation’s worst inequalities in school finance. Pennsylvania last had an entrenched and objective school funding formula around 1990. After that, the distribution of school dollars became a political exercise in which governors and top lawmakers worked to bend the formulas to their will. One feature of that is called “hold harmless.” That has meant that every district — regardless of any change in wealth or enrollment — received more when the state increased the total amount of annual aid it distributed. As a result, the current formula has 25year-old notions of enrollment, analysts say. Over that period, two-thirds of school district have lost enrollment — mostly in western and northern Pennsylvania, home to leading Republican lawmakers — as

Pennsylvania got older. Other districts, often affluent suburbs, have grown, sometimes rapidly. Protecting all districts meant the poorest and fastest-growing ones often did not get their fair share of aid, analysts say. “Basically we’re dealing with this playing field now that is irrational, with a largely politicized allocation of resources ... with no basis in reality,” said Jim Buckheit, executive director of the Pennsylvania Association of School Administrators. The per-student average of discretionary state aid to Pennsylvania’s 500 school districts — the $5.5 billion basic education funding account and a $200 million block grant program — is $3,270. It ranges from nearly $14,700 in impoverished Duquesne City to $477 in the wealthy Philadelphia suburb of Lower Merion. For examples of districts that have fared poorly, look no further than Pennsylvania’s most heavily populated cities. Reading, ranked by the state as No. 1 in poverty, is 51st highest in per-student aid. Erie, ranked 29th poorest, is 196th in perstudent aid. Allentown, ranked 36th poorest, is 130th in per-student aid. Scranton, ranked 53rd poorest, is 231st in per-student aid. Philadelphia, ranked 58th poorest, is 145th in per-student aid. Fixing 25 years of damage is unlikely to happen immediately, analysts say, because it would create a reverse Robin Hood effect in some cases: Taking money from shrunken districts and giving it to growing, more affluent districts. “I don’t think that can happen politically, and I don’t think it’s fair,” said Jay Himes, executive director of the Pennsylvania Association of School Business Officials. The only other way to fix disparities quickly is an immediate and huge influx of new state aid, Buckheit said. Otherwise, change will be slow. “It’ll take 20 years to get it fixed,” Buckheit said, “if that’s the approach that they’re going to take.”

County kicks in $30K Continued from Page 1 Stauffer noted that development of a multimodal corridor is consistent with the comprehensive plans of White Township, Indiana County and Indiana Borough and with IUP’s long-range campus facilities master plan. Laurie LaFontaine, a member of the Indiana County Parks and Trails Board, said the board members felt it was important to extend the Hoodlebug Trail into Indiana and the county seat. Not only will local residents be able to use the corridor for convenient travel and recreation, but the corridor is also expected to have a positive economic impact along its route, she said. In other action Wednesday, the commissioners agreed to reallocate more than $110,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds to significantly expand a fire hydrant and waterline project in Marion

Center Borough. Some of the transferred money is left over from the completed West Wheatfield Township waterline expansion project, and some will be reallocated from a waterline extension project in Brush Valley Township that was eliminated. LuAnn Zak, deputy director of community development and housing in the county planning office, said the reallocation will expand the Marion Center project from its original scope of $25,000 to a new outlay of more than $135,000. The additional money will allow the borough’s fire hydrant and waterline system to be expanded with 8-inch diameter pipes to cover all of the borough, and for the first time a fire hydrant will be located near the Marion Center Area High School-McCreery Elementary School complex just outside the borough’s boundary. Zak said the waterline extension work should be underway by autumn.

Appeals boards to be formed Continued from Page 1 at (724) 465-3805 to request an application. Early in the reassessment process about 50 local people were hired as data collectors and data entry workers. The reassessment is the first in the county since 1968 and will revalue all properties at current fair market value and establish a uniform tax base so all properties of like characteristics will be taxed at the same rate. The result will be revenue-neutral — meaning it will not generate any new income — for the county. During Wednesday’s commissioners meeting, Tim Barr, vice president of EST, said the process is on schedule. On July 1, change-of-assessment notices will be mailed to property owners. On July 2, a call center will open to begin scheduling informal appeals at temporary offices

that will open July 9 in the Indiana Mall. More information on the reassessment process, including a video explanation and details on Clean and Green is available on the county’s website at www.countyofindiana.org. Clean and Green is a program designed to help keep post-reassessment taxes on agriculture and forest land closer to what they are now. And the last in a series of public information meetings to help property owners better understand reassessment will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. today at the Penns Manor Area High School auditorium. At the meeting, property reassessment in general, how new property values are determined and how to interpret the change of assessment notices will be explained. There will also be time for property owners to ask questions.

Library to host family book club Families are invited to visit the Indiana Free Library for the first family book club event on July 1 at 6:30 p.m. Librarians from the Cambria County Library will lead a discussion and activities centered on Beverly Cleary’s realistic and humorous novel “Ramona Quimby, Age 8.” Although this popular book was published in 1981, the problems and concerns raised in the text are still relevant today. Ramona’s father returns to school to become a teacher but continues working part

time at a frozen food warehouse. The transmission on the family car needs replaced, so Ramona and her older sister learn not to complain about the food selected for the evening meal. The members of the Quimby family find that all problems have a solution and the author uses comforting phrases and humor to resolve situations as they occur. Copies of this book are available at the circulation desk of the Indiana Free Library and can be borrowed with a library card for three weeks.

North squad looking to end South’s dominance By DUSTIN FILLOY

RAHDEZZ HENDERSON

JOHNSTOWN — The South squad’s dominance in recent years will surely serve as the North’s chief motivator in Friday’s Ken Lantzy Finest 40 All-Star Classic. And while the South again boasts a deeply talented roster, the North contends it has the same type of firepower. The North will aim for just its fourth win in the last 11 years in the

45th edition of the annual all-star football game that pits graduated seniors from high schools in Districts 5 and 6. The game, which includes 16 players from the Heritage Conference, will be played at 7 p.m. Friday at Johnstown High School’s Trojan Stadium. The North roster includes: Blairsville’s Scott Thompson,

Rahdezz Henderson, Cameron Livingston and Jake Smith; HomerCenter’s Matt McAdoo and Ean Lee; Marion Center’s Kyle McCullough; Northern Cambria’s Joe Olish; Penns Manor’s Brandon Alter; and Purchase Line’s Grant Syster and Royce Bish. The South roster includes: Ligonier Valley’s Jordan Jones and Michael Keller; Saltsburg’s Tyler

Frassenei; and United’s Grant Ingalls and Andrew Deitman. In last year’s game, the South rolled up over 600 total yards and thumped the North, 48-18, to earn its seventh win in the past 10 years. The South leads the all-time series, 26-18. Thompson, one of the North’s two quarterbacks, led Blairsville to a 10-0 record in the regular season last year. Continued on Page 15

Bucs top Sox again, win seventh straight By JOHN JACKSON Associated Press

CHICAGO — Less heralded than the other starters in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ rotation, Jeff Locke is happy to do his part along with his more famous and accomplished teammates. Locke allowed just two runs in six innings, Jung Ho Kang hit a two-run home run and the Pirates beat the struggling Chicago White Sox 3-2 Wednesday night for their seventh straight win. “It just makes you proud and fortunate to be a part of it,” Locke said. “I think you just try to pick up where these guys leave off and try to find any way to come up with a win.” The Pirates, who had thrown three straight shutouts — and five in the previous six — saw their streak of scoreless innings end at 35. Locke (4-3) gave up three hits and had a season-high eight strikeouts. He was followed by Arquimedes Caminero, Tony Watson and Mark

Attorney: Cards execs aren’t behind hacking By R.B. FALLSTROM AP Sports Writer

ST. LOUIS — High-level executives of the St. Louis Cardinals were not involved in the hacking of the Houston Astros’ player personnel database, an attorney hired by the team said Wednesday, citing an internal review. The Cardinals said they retained the Dowd Bennett firm for a review several months before this week’s disclosure that the FBI is investigating whether the team hacked into the Astros’ computer system that is used to track players and prospects.

“With what we have done so far, I am 100 percent confident that this does not touch upper management and does not involve people like John Mozeliak and Bill DeWitt,” Jim Martin, an attorney for the firm, told The Associated Press. Mozeliak is the Cardinals’ general manager and DeWitt is the team chairman. Martin said he was retained in February. Mozeliak said in Minnesota that he and DeWitt were not aware of any information that the team used. The Cardinals have been aware of the investigation for “several months,” the GM added.

I’m glad it came in a win.” The White Sox, who snapped a string of 30 consecutive scoreless innings with two runs in the sixth, lost their season-high sixth straight. White Sox starter John Danks (3-7) settled down after a shaky first inning to allow three runs on five hits in seven innings. “Besides the first inning, Johnny pitched great,” Chicago manager Robin Ventura said of Danks. “Somehow we have to get over the first inning.” The Pirates scored their three runs in the first inning. Harrison led off with a double, advanced to third on a sacrifice and scored on a single by Andrew McCutchen. Kang then homered to make it 3-0. Continued on Page 14

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers expected a lot from Doran Grant after they selected him in the fourth round of the draft. The 5-10, 200-pound cornerback hasn’t let them down so far.

The Steelers can only hope that Grant can be as successful as Taylor was during 12 seasons. “It means a lot to be wearing the No. 24 and holding a locker next to Will,” Grant said. “He and Will Allen probably are the two veterans who have helped me the most.” Steelers secondary coach Carnell Lake, who played cornerback and safety for the Steelers from 19891998, retired after 13 seasons before moving into coaching. So, when he talks, Grant listens intently. Continued on Page 14

U.S. OPEN NOTEBOOK

Long walk awaits at Chambers Bay By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer

LENNY IGNELZI/Associated Press

TOM HOGE watched his tee shot on the 18th hole during a practice round Wednesday.

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — These might be some of the longest rounds in the U.S. Open, and it won’t all be down to slow play. Chambers Bay is a long hike even without clubs. USGA executive director Mike Davis set the time par at 4 hours, 45 minutes, which is not close to what anyone is expecting a threesome to get around in for 18 holes. Time par is merely used as a gauge to determine if a group that falls out of position (such as an entire hole

behind) should be warned for slow play. Don’t be surprised if actual time for the later groups is pushing six hours. Davis said the average walking time between greens and tees at Chambers Bay is 21 minutes. “Put that in perspective,” Davis said. “Last year at Pinehurst, we had 13½ minutes. Merion the year before, 11 minutes. So we had to add some time to that. And then obviously, it’s a U.S. Open. It’s a tough test of golf.” Davis said the USGA staff would have plenty of help Continued on Page 17

Attorney: Execs weren’t involved Continued from Page 13 “When you look at how you make decisions and why you make decisions, everybody does it differently,” Mozeliak said. “In our case, we’re very comfortable with our process and how we think through things. Mike Matheny didn’t believe the investigation would affect performance. “There’s going to be extra questions, there’s going to be extra attention,” Matheny said. “We’ve got a good group of guys who have been around and had potential distractions that they’ve stayed the course. And that’s all we’re asking them to do.” Mozeliak also separated the Cardinals’ performance from the investigation. “I do feel that this is something that’s not great news for our organization,” Mozeliak said. “But it shouldn’t be something that tarnishes what these gentlemen do on the field.” The internal investigation is not finished, and Mozeliak added, “Not being an expert on this, I feel like progress is being made.” “These are serious allegations that don’t reflect who we are as an organization,” DeWitt said. “We are committed to getting to the bottom of this matter as soon as possible, and if anyone within our organization is determined to be involved in anything inappropriate, they will be held accountable.” The hack was first reported in June 2014 after some of the trade talk was published online. The Astros rely heavily on analytics in their evaluation of players and use an online database called Ground Control to house proprietary information. Jeff Luhnow, who headed the Cardinals’ scouting and player development department, was hired as the Astros general manager in December 2011 and he has helped turn the team into an AL contender. The motive for hacking the Astros’ system is unclear. The Cardinals have become a model of success by mixing traditional scouting with a heavy dose of analytics. They’ve advanced to the NL championship series four years in a row, a franchise best. That approach grew as Luhnow rose to power in the front office more than a decade ago. The Cardinals are not big players in free agency, building rosters that emphasize homegrown talent with a handful of name players as anchors. Their World Series roster in 2013 included 16 players drafted when Luhnow oversaw player development and scouting. Under Luhnow’s watch, the Cardinals uncovered three later-round gems in 2009 — two-time All-Star Matt Carpenter in the 13th, closer Trevor Rosenthal in the 21st and first baseman Matt Adams in the 23rd. Lefty setup man Kevin Siegrist was a 41st-rounder in 2008. “I know he had an impact in the draft,” said Chris Duncan, who played for the Cardinals while Luhnow was in St. Louis. Luhnow had a good working relationship with Mozeliak, himself a former personnel director, before leaving along with one of his top aides — Sig Mejdal, a former NASA employee and analytics expert — for Houston. Mozeliak’s lieutenants feature a blend of old and new school — and include many who would have worked with Luhnow before he left for Houston. Michael Girsch, the assistant GM since 2011, has a mathematics degree and has headed a group supporting baseball operations with Internet applications since 2008. Mike Jorgen, senior special assistant to Mozeliak, is a baseball lifer, a former 16year big leaguer who has served the franchise in many capacities including interim manager after Joe Torre was fired in 1994. New scouting director Chris Correa earned a bachelor of science in cognitive science and a master of science in psychology.

Bucs win seventh straight

MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

ALEX BRANDON/Associated Press

THE RAYS’ Chris Archer, left, doused teammate Steven Souza Jr. with Gatorade following Tampa Bay’s win on Wednesday. Souza went 3-for-4 with a home run against his former team, the Washington Nationals.

A-Rod inches closer to 3,000 By The Associated Press Alex Rodriguez singled twice to raise his career hits total to 2,997, Michael Pineda carried a no-hit bid into the seventh inning before allowing Christian Yelich’s home run, and the New York Yankees beat the Miami Marlins 2-1 Wednesday night. On a night when Yankees manager Joe Girardi was spared having to decide whether to lift Pineda with a high pitch count and New York benefited from an overturned call at home plate that prevented the tying run in the eighth inning, A-Rod closed in on becoming the 29th player to reach the 3,000 mark. Rodriguez lined an RBI single to center in the first inning, singled softly to center in the fifth, walked twice to reach in all four plate appearances and also was thrown out at home plate. With New York starting an eight-game homestand, he has a good chance to get No. 3,000 at home. REDS 8, TIGERS 4: Todd Frazier hit an early solo homer and a grand slam with two outs in the 13th inning, powering the Cincinnati Reds to a rain-delayed victory over the Detroit Tigers. The Reds twice rallied from one-run deficits in the late innings, turning it into the longest game this season for both teams. Ian Krol escaped a two-on threat in the 12th inning and stayed in the game. Skip Schumaker opened the 13th with a single and Billy Hamilton walked. Joakim Soria took over and gave up a single by Brandon Phillips that loaded the bases with one out. Frazier connected for his fourth homer in two days, ending it at 1:20 a.m. local time. Burke Badenhop retired the side in the 13th. Jay Bruce had a career-high five hits — the first Reds player do so since Willy Tavares in 2009. TWINS 3, CARDINALS 1: Tommy Milone gave up one run in seven innings and the Minnesota Twins squeaked out a victory over St. Louis. Milone gave up five hits and struck out five and Eduardo Nunez had two hits and two RBIs to help the reeling Twins, who had lost seven of their previous eight games. Carlos Martinez gave up two runs — one earned — on five hits and struck out six in 6 2-3 innings for the Cardinals, who are embroiled in a federal investigation into allegations that members of the team’s baseball operations hacked into the Houston Astros’ personnel database. The Cardinals had two runners on with no outs in the ninth, but Glen Perkins struck out Mark Reynolds and Randal Grichuk and got Yadier Molina to ground out to improve to 23 for 23 in save tries. MARINERS 2, GIANTS 0: Felix Hernandez pitched eight innings of four-hit ball, Austin Jackson delivered a go-ahead RBI triple in the sixth, and Seattle beat San Francisco. Hernandez allowed four hits, struck out five and walked two to rebound from the worst outing of his career. The Mariners’ ace allowed a runner to reach scoring position twice, but both times he quickly retired the side by inducing a groundout. Charlie Furbush retired the first two batters of the ninth and Carson Smith struck out Matt Duffy for his fourth save in five chances. Jackson tripled home Mike Zunino with one out in the sixth off San Francisco starter Madison Bumgarner. Robinson Cano followed with an RBI double. Bumgarner, who lost a perfect-game bid in the fifth, also gave up four hits in eight innings, striking out nine and issuing one intentional walk. ATHLETICS 16, PADRES 2: Jesse Chavez struck out a career-high 11 in seven innings to win for only the second time in his last eight starts, Billy Butler had four hits including a three-run home run and Oakland beat San Diego. Chavez went into the game with the

eighth-lowest ERA in the AL and was dominant while allowing three hits over seven innings. He fanned seven of the first 11 batters, walked one and didn’t allow a runner past first base until Alexi Amarista homered on the first pitch leading off the sixth. Ben Zobrist drove in three runs and fell a home run shy of hitting for the cycle for the A’s. Stephen Vogt added two RBIs. Will Middlebrooks homered for the Padres, who lost their third straight since firing manager Bud Black on Monday. ASTROS 8, ROCKIES 4: Carlos Correa hit one of Houston’s four home runs, Brett Olberholtzer pitched effectively into the seventh inning and the Astros continued their power surge in a win over Colorado. Chris Carter, Preston Tucker and Jake Marisnick also homered for the firstplace Astros, who have won four straight and lead the majors with 95 home runs. Correa and George Springer had three hits each. Olberholtzer followed up his eight shutout innings against Seattle on Friday with another strong outing. He allowed three runs and eight hits, struck out five and didn’t walk a batter in 6 1-3 innings. He worked around Charlie Blackmon’s leadoff double in the sixth but left after allowing Nick Hundley’s RBI single in the seventh. DIAMONDBACKS 3, ANGELS 2: Paul Goldschmidt and Welington Castillo each hit a solo home run, and Arizona held on to beat Los Angeles. Both homers came off Hector Santiago. Yasmany Tomas had three hits for Arizona, including an RBI triple. Goldschmidt’s 19th home run came in the first inning. Castillo hit his fourth — second since coming to the Diamondbacks — leading off the fourth. Goldschmidt had two hits to raise his batting average to .363, best in the majors. He has reached base in 27 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the majors. Chase Anderson allowed two runs and seven hits in six innings for his second straight win. BLUE JAYS 8, METS 0: Danny Valencia hit a three-run homer, Kevin Pillar had a solo shot and Toronto beat New York behind a solid start from Drew Hutchison. Pillar went 3-for-4 with two RBIs as the Blue Jays, whose 11-game winning streak ended with Monday’s 11-inning loss to the Mets at Citi Field, won the opener of a five-game homestand. Toronto is 12-3 in June. The Blue Jays lead the majors with 369 runs. Entering play Wednesday, Arizona was second with 291. The Mets dropped to 10-20 on the road. They’ve lost 12 of 15 away from home. Hutchison allowed career highs of nine hits and eight runs in his previous outing, June 12 at Boston, but fared much better against the Mets. He gave up four hits in 5 2-3 innings, walked one and struck out five. ROYALS 10, BREWERS 2: Joe Blanton picked up his first victory in nearly two years with five solid innings and Alcides Escobar equaled his career high with four RBIs as Kansas City pounded Milwaukee. Blanton had not won since June 29, 2013, while with the Los Angeles Angels against Houston. He limited the Brewers to one run and five hits. The 34-yearold right-hander struck out four and walked none, throwing a season high 73 pitches. Escobar tripled with the bases loaded in a four-run eighth. He also singled home a run in a three-run second. It was his third four-RBI game. Mike Fiers absorbed the loss, giving up six runs on eight hits and three walks in five innings. CUBS 17, INDIANS 0: Kris Bryant had a grand slam and Kyle Schwarber was 4-

for-5, including his first major league hit and RBI, and Chicago hit four home runs to rout Cleveland. The Cubs scored seven times in the ninth inning, which ended with Indians position players Ryan Raburn and David Murphy pitching. Schwarber, the fourth pick in last year’s draft who was called up Tuesday, tripled in the second to key a six-run inning and added an RBI single in the third when the Cubs scored four times. Schwarber hit into a double play in the fourth and singled in the seventh. He added an infield hit in the ninth. Cleveland used seven pitchers in the first eight innings before calling on Raburn, who was given a loud ovation by the crowd of 15,572. RAYS 5, NATIONALS 0: Steven Souza Jr. hit his 13th home run of the season and Curt Casali blasted the first of his career to help Tampa Bay beat Washington. Souza and Casali each had three hits, with Souza doing so while returning to his former home park. Matt Andriese pitched four shutout innings of relief for the AL East-leading Rays. Reliever-turned-starter Steve Geltz got the first six outs in what manager Kevin Cash called a bullpen game. Jordan Zimmermann allowed three runs in seven innings for Washington. The Nationals committed three errors and had just two hits, one night after belting out 23 in a 16-4 victory over the Rays in Tampa. BRAVES 5, RED SOX 2: Nick Markakis singled in the go-ahead run in the seventh inning, Pedro Ciriaco added a pair of RBI singles and Atlanta beat struggling Boston. The Red Sox, who began the night in last place and eight games out in the AL East, have dropped eight of nine overall and 11 of 12 on the road. Red Sox manager John Farrell showed his frustration in the bottom of the seventh, getting ejected for arguing balls and strikes. Atlanta, which has won three of five, took its first lead at 3-2 in the seventh when Markakis singled to score Cameron Maybin. Markakis’ hit came off Junichi Tazawa, who gave up three hits, two runs and one walk in twothirds of an inning. Nick Masset earned the win in relief, and Jason Grilli recorded his 18th save in 20 chances. ORIOLES 6, PHILLIES 4: Chris Parmelee homered for the third time in two games and Travis Snider also went deep as Baltimore handed Philadelphia its ninth straight defeat. The Orioles still finished six homers shy of the club record they set in Tuesday’s 19-3 victory over Philadelphia. David Lough doubled and had two RBIs for Baltimore, which won its 12th game in the last 14. Ubaldo Jimenez struck out eight and walked none while giving up four runs on eight hits in 6 2-3 innings. Zach Britton pitched a scoreless ninth for his 18th save. Freddy Galvis homered and Ben Revere had a pair of hits, including a triple for Philadelphia, which has lost 19 of 22 to sink to 23 games under .500. Kevin Correia took the loss. RANGERS 5, DODGERS 3: Rookie slugger Joey Gallo hit a two-run homer off Clayton Kershaw, and Prince Fielder also went deep to lead the Texas Rangers over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Wandy Rodriguez shrugged off leadoff doubles by Yasiel Puig and Scott Van Slyke in each of the first two innings to win his third straight decision in a span of six starts. Keone Kela pitched a hitless ninth for his first major league save. Kershaw allowed four runs and five hits through six innings and struck out 10 after going 3-0 with a 0.94 ERA over his previous four starts. It was the first career appearance against the Rangers for the reigning NL MVP and three-time Cy Young Award winner, who was born in Dallas.

Continued from Page 13 The White Sox have been outscored 56-19 in the first inning this season. The 56 runs are the most allowed and the 19 runs the fewest scored in the majors. Danks got in a groove after the homer and retired 19 of the final 20 batters he faced. “Got a couple balls up in the first and then I was able to keep the ball down,” Danks said. Chicago didn’t get its first hit until the fourth inning, and that came with two outs and nobody on — after a double play in which Melky Cabrera struck out swinging and was called for interfering with catcher Francisco Cervelli throwing to second base. By rule, the runner, Adam Eaton, was out as well. Ventura argued the call and was ejected by home plate umpire Alfonso Marquez. Locke cruised into the sixth inning with a one-hitter and retired the first two batters. But just when it appeared Pittsburgh’s scoreless streak would reach 36 innings, Eaton drew a two-out walk and Cabrera followed with a double down the left-field line on a hit-and-run play. Eaton easily scored to make it 3-1. After a walk to Jose Abreu, Avisail Garcia singled to score Cabrera and make it 3-2. “He had five masterful innings,” Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. “He’s working better, he’s looking better. The last two outings he’s been clean.” Starling Marte left the game in the ninth inning with left ankle discomfort. “He tweaked his ankle when he hit the bag (in the top of the eighth) and then he probably re-tweaked it on that ball in the outfield (in the bottom of the eighth),” Hurdle said. NOTES: Pirates RHP Gerrit Cole (10-2, 1.71 ERA) is scheduled to start today. He leads the major leagues in wins and has won each of his last five starts with a 0.76 ERA over the stretch. Chicago counters with RHP Jeff Samardzija (4-4, 4.84), who has struggled of late.

Grant ready to take next step Continued from Page 13 “He always tells us to work hard, compete hard and take care of the little things,” Grant said. “If we can do that, then the bigger things will take care of themselves.” Grant was a co-captain for college football national champion Ohio State last year, and he routinely was tasked with covering the opposition’s top wide receiver. Lake was impressed. “A corner that has matched up with some top-notch programs has seen a lot of receivers that have gone in probably the first, second or third round,” Lake said. “To have that kind of experience and step right into the NFL gives him a slight advantage.” Grant also believed he developed solid leadership skills with the Buckeyes. “I try to lead by example and be physical in coverage and in the run game,” Grant said. “I can come up and tackle a back, receiver or a tight end, and I’m not opposed to doing it. And with the Steelers, defensive backs are asked to do that a lot, as well as cover them downfield.” NOTES: The Steelers placed rookie OT Micah Hatchie (6-5, 306) from Washington on the reserveinjured list Wednesday and signed rookie interior lineman Colin Rahrig (6-2, 285) from Indiana. … Mini-camp concludes today. … The Steelers must report to training camp on Saturday, July 25.

Even so, those same players remain cognizant that the North’s pride can only be restored with a win. “With the athletes we have this year, it really is a pride thing coming into this, knowing that we have a chance to be able to stop the South’s momentum up here,” said Thompson, who will play baseball for Pitt Johnstown next year. “We really want to show that our side, this side of Pennsylvania, is better.” Deitman, an offensive lineman, said he and his South teammates will bring the same must-win mentality to the table. “It’s win or go home, so it’s going to be a tough game. A fight to the death for sure,” Deitman said. “We want to win Friday. That’s why we’re here.” The North roster not only includes Syster, the 2014 AllGazette Co-Offensive Player of the Year, and Henderson, the All-Gazette Defensive Player of the Year, it also boasts players from District 5 Class AA champion Chestnut Ridge and PIAA Class A champion Bishop Guilfoyle. Along with solid players from Portage, Johnstown and Meyersdale, the South is stacked with players from District 5 Class A champion Berlin and PIAA Class AAA semifinalist Somerset. “You always want to win the game but you also have to be aware of what the South has, and they have some tremendous weapons,” said third-year Lantzy veteran Jim Meighan, who is a Blairsville assistant coach and the North’s offensive line coach. “They have a wide receiver (Johnstown’s Willie Robinson) that I know they’re going to throw the

ball to, and he’s tall and he can go up and get it. They also have one of the best running backs (Portage’s Caleb Kephart) the area has seen in many years, so we have our hands full. But we have some really good kids too, and we’re hoping to make it a really good game and win the game.” Several of the area’s participants will be gracing the gridiron for the final time. Two of those players, Bish and Deitman, said that fulfilling their childhood dreams of playing in the game will bring out a whirlwind of emotions. “It’s definitely bittersweet. I love the sport and I’d do anything I could to keep playing, but at least I have one more shot,” said Bish, who will attend the Pittsburgh Technical Institute. “I’ve always made the trip up here to watch and I’ve always wanted to play in this game,” added Deitman, who will attend IUP. “This means the world to me. It’s my last high school game ever, so I definitely want to go out with a bang.” One player who originally thought the Lantzy game would be his last in a football uniform recently had a change of heart. Lee decided that instead of playing baseball at Mount Aloysius, he wanted to play football at Waynesburg. Smith, the 2014 All-Gazette Lineman of the Year, jokingly said he helped recruit Lee, who will be his roommate this fall. “It was a tough decision but I just decided I wanted to keep this football going because I can’t get away from it and I love it, so that’s what I’m going to be doing,” said Lee. Along with Meighan, Blairsville’s Rick Artley will be an assistant for the North, and Ligonier Valley’s Corey Turcheck will serve as an assistant for the South.

IUP men’s basketball names new assistant By The Indiana Gazette The IUP men’s basketball team added Joey Cantens to its coaching staff. Cantens, who will be an assistant coach, spent last season at the University of Southern California. “I am very thankful for the opportunity to join the coaching staff at IUP,” said Cantens. “The Crimson Hawks have had great success under the leadership of Coach (Joe) Lombardi. The

family atmosphere that he has created amongst the players, staff and community of Indiana is special, and I believe is a big reason for the success of IUP basketball.” Cantens spent last season as USC’s director of scouting and video operations. Prior to his time at USC, he served as an assistant with the Santo Domingo Leones, a professional team in the Dominican Republic, where he helped lead the Leones to the league semifinals.

By The Indiana Gazette

S.W. Jack got the only timely hit of the game in a pitchers’ duel and shut down Marion Center to score a 2-0 win in an Indiana County Youth Legion baseball game Wednesday at Marion Center Community Park. Rocco Fanella put the Black Sox on the board first and drove in what turned out to be the game-winning run when he hit an RBI single that scored Bobby Kanick in the top of the second inning. Three innings later, Brandon Boyer scored on a groundout from Keegan Ryan to make it a 2-0 game. S.W. Jack pitcher Luke Thomas allowed just two hits and no runs in the last three innings to solidify the win. “We definitely had some opportunities. We had a guy double in the second with one out and didn’t get him in and we had two guys in scoring position in both the fourth and sixth innings,” Marion Center coach Don Stitt said. “It’s frustrating because it’s been the same story in all of our close losses this year. We just can’t seem to get any clutch hits.” Thomas fanned six and walked three in a five-hitter, and Ryan Dixon banged out two singles for the Black Sox. Losing pitcher Taylor McCunn struck out nine and walked five in six innings, and Dylan Johnston singled and doubled. “It was a well-pitched game on both sides, plus neither team made an error. It was really tough to see either guy lose this one,” Stitt said. Both teams play Friday. Marion Center (68) plays host to Young Township and S.W. Jack (11-3) travels to I-Medical. SHOEMAKER FUNERAL HOME 5, YOUNG TOWNSHIP 1: Joey Lynch tossed a four-hitter, and Shoemaker Funeral Home mounted a big rally in the fifth inning to outlast winless Young Township at Bertolino Field. With the bases loaded, one out and the score tied in the top of the fifth, Shoemaker

Funeral Home’s Garrett Henigin laid down a squeeze bunt. A Young Township player fielded the bunt cleanly but then threw it away into the outfield to allow three runners to score. Henigin scored later in the inning to give Shoemaker Funeral Home a 5-1 lead. “That was frustrating,” Young Township coach J.T. Yard said. “But like I told the kids after the game, ‘That was just one inning. We played six good innings of baseball and one bad one.’” Marty Foreman went 3-for-3 to lead Shoemaker Funeral Home. Devin Burkhart finished 2-for-3, and Lynch struck out seven and walked two. Sam Hefferin fanned five, walked seven and allowed seven hits in a complete-game losing effort. Young Township (0-12) travels to Marion Center on Friday. Shoemaker Funeral Home plays host to Indiana Lions on Wednesday. I-MEDICAL 6, WALBECK INSURANCE 3: I-Medical was outhit 7-2 but took advantage of two costly errors to outlast Walbeck Insurance at First Commonwealth Field. The game was tied 1-1 before I-Medical capitalized on a pair of two-run errors and scored four runs in the top of the third inning to take a 6-1 lead. After allowing two runs in the bottom of the third, I-Medical pitchers Isaac Stouffer and Brandon McGee teamed up to hold Walbeck Insurance scoreless in the last four innings. Stouffer fanned five, walked three and yielded six hits in five innings to earn the win. Dylan Ishman singled and doubled. Losing pitcher Jesse Lee struck out four in 4 1-3 innings, and Ryan Orsargos singled and doubled. The loss snapped an eight-game winning streak for Walbeck Insurance, which suffered its last loss on May 9. Both teams play Friday. I-Medical (8-4) plays host to S.W. Jack and Walbeck Insurance (9-2) travels to Kelly Chrysler.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Timberwolves held a grand opening for their shiny new downtown practice facility on Wednesday, hoping that it can help end a decade of futility in the NBA. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and WNBA President Laurel Richie attended the ceremony. The Wolves partnered with the Mayo Clinic to build the $25 million facility just across the street from Target Center. It was paid for entirely with private funding. The 107,000-squarefoot facility is home to two practice courts, the offices for the basketball and business staffs and the Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center. • CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Guard Gerald Henderson has exercised his player option for the 2015-16 season and will remain with the Charlotte Hornets. The news comes two days after the team traded guard Lance Stephenson to the Los Angeles Clippers for center Spencer Hawes and forward Matt Barnes.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama phoned the coaches of the Golden State Warriors and the Chicago Blackhawks to congratulate the teams on winning the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup. The White House says Obama told Warriors’ Coach Steve Kerr it was exciting to see the team’s perseverance in winning in its first title in 40 years. He singled out Stephen Curry and Andre Igoudala for praise. The president, who is from Chicago, also telephoned Blackhawks Coach Joel Quenneville, owner Rocky Wirtz, and captain Jonathan Toews about their hockey victory. Obama praised their leadership, and the whole team’s effort in winning its third championship in six years.

Aussie swimmer tests positive SYDNEY (AP) — Kylie Palmer has withdrawn from the Australian swim team for next month’s world championships in Kazan, Russia, after testing positive for a banned substance at the Barcelona worlds in 2013. Swimming Australia said in a statement earlier today that neither it nor Palmer had received notice of the doping breach until April of this year. Palmer advised Swimming Australia this week that she had voluntarily accepted a provisional suspension, under FINA’s doping code, until her case is heard by the FINA Doping Tribunal. A statement from the Australian Swimmers’ Association said Palmer had tested positive in Barcelona to a “minute trace of a prohibited substance” which it did not name. It said “recent” testing of the B sample also came back positive.

Azarenka injures foot BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) — Former world No. 1s Victoria Azarenka and Ana Ivanovic departed from the Aegon Classic singles draw on Wednesday, with only Ivanovic confident of being ready for Wimbledon in 11 days. Azarenka suffered another blow to her chances of reviving her faltering career when she was forced to withdraw with a left foot injury, while Ivanovic’s title defense was ruined in the second round by Portuguese qualifier Michelle Larcher de Brito 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (6). Azarenka’s foot injury is similar to the ailment which contributed to her fall from the world’s top 20 more than 10 months ago.

THE WARRIORS’ Stephen Curry, right, and Andre Iguodala greeted fans as they returned to Oakland on Wednesday. Golden State clinched the NBA title on Tuesday.

Whirlwind offseason to begin next week By TIM REYNOLDS AP Basketball Writer

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors will get their championship rings. LeBron James will try yet again to end Cleveland’s epic title drought. And barring a most unlikely change of heart, Kobe Bryant’s illustrious NBA career will end. That’s just a smidge of what awaits next season. So much more is TBA, though hints will soon start coming. And once again, the NBA offseason won’t be NBA down time. Tim Duncan hasn’t said if he’ll retire or return to San Antonio, LaMarcus Aldridge and DeAndre Jordan hit the open market, Kevin Love’s future is still unclear despite his saying that he’ll stay with the Cavaliers, Dwyane Wade might be leaving Miami and Rajon Rondo surely will be moving on from Dallas. Plus, before free agency officially starts on July 1, an intriguing draft awaits next week with Minnesota holding the No. 1 pick. “I haven’t thought about next season,” James said early Wednesday after Golden State topped the Cavs in the NBA Finals clincher. “At all.” He won’t be able to say that in a day or two, tops. It doesn’t take long for the league to shift from Finals to frantic, and the NBA could have a very different look about a month from now. Here’s a look at some of the storylines worth watching over the next few weeks: THE CHAMPS: Every indication is that the Warriors could come back relatively intact to defend their title. Draymond Green, he who only had a tripledouble in the title clincher, will get attention from other teams but the Warriors have the right to match any offers that he takes seriously. And the way Green was sounding in the championship celebration, he’s got no plans at this point to seek employment elsewhere. The Warriors aren’t anywhere near being an “old” team yet, might be able to free up some cap space in trades. THE CAVS: James can (and probably will) opt out of his contract. But it would be with different goals in mind than finding a new home; rather, he and his braintrust will try to find creative ways to both maximize money and the Cavs’ potential for winning. Tristan Thompson’s contract talks will be interesting, and it’s likely Cleveland will need to give him a max deal or close to it to keep him. So then it’s all eyes on Love, who says he wants to stay. But questions exist about Love wanting to play in Los Angeles at some point, and if this is Bryant’s swan song then the Lakers would want to load up as much as they can for his final season.

Thursday, June 18, 2015 — Page 17

Love’s shoulder injury and recovery add another thorn to his future as to whether other teams will take the risk. Though it seems coach David Blatt will be back, a potentially wild summer awaits in Cleveland. POWER BROKERS: Imagine these scenarios — Jordan leaves the Clippers and somehow ends up in Atlanta. Aldridge heads to Dallas and becomes the heir apparent to Dirk Nowitzki as the Mavericks’ go-to guy. Rondo goes to the Lakers, joining a rare club alongside the likes of Don Nelson, Rick Fox and Gary Payton to play for both them and the Celtics. It could all happen. While the draft will generate plenty of attention, remember that of the 60 guys selected last year only 11 played in this season’s playoffs — and of those, only one (Houston’s Clint Capela) made more than 10 appearances in this postseason. And just four rookies finished this season averaging more than 10 points a game. In short, the draft usually isn’t where teams get real good real fast. That can happen in free agency. Jordan, Aldridge, Wade and Rondo will be in plenty of headlines July 1, assuming Wade opts out of the second year of his Miami deal as many expect. Tyson Chandler will be on the market, alongside quite possibly Brook Lopez and Roy Hibbert. Danny Green might leave San Antonio. Paul Pierce might play one more year, and it’s been whispered for months that the Los Angeles-area native could reunite with Doc Rivers and try to push the Clippers toward a title. POTENTIAL MOVERS AND SHAKERS THIS SUMMER: Boston — players around the league are enthralled with coach Brad Stevens, and the Celtics have dollars to spend. Chicago — the Jimmy Butler situation will be interesting. If the Bulls lose him, they will have to make a huge reactive move. Detroit — Stan Van Gundy made one of the boldest moves of the year when he waived Josh Smith. He’ll have the Pistons closer to the playoffs in his second season running the ship in Auburn Hills. Miami — Pat Riley and Micky Arison won’t sit idle. Watching these playoffs hurt. Milwaukee — another team growing in a rapidly improving Eastern Conference. Young and with financial flexibility. New Orleans — new coach in Alvin Gentry, best young big man in the game in Anthony Davis. It could be his league soon. San Antonio — don’t sleep on the Spurs. They’re not done. There are no shortage of players who would want to play for Gregg Popovich and a goldstandard franchise. Utah — one of the best young cores in the NBA, a certain team on the rise out West.

EURO SUCCESS: Four of the past five U.S. Open champions have come from Europe, beginning with Graeme McDowell’s victory in 2010 at Pebble Beach that ended a 40-year drought for Europeans. There’s no one reason for the uptick in European champions, but Rory McIlroy, the 2011 winner at Congressional, believes it can be tied to Europe’s success in the Ryder Cup, winning six of the seven matches since 2002. “I think it’s given Europeans the confidence to come over here and compete, three of the four major championships are in this country,” McIlroy said. “And most likely you’re competing against players that you compete against at the Ryder Cup. So I think having that success in the Ryder Cup has translated into major victories for European players.” DIVOTS: Michael Greller, the caddie for Jordan Spieth, thought a standard bearer looked familiar in their practice round group. Turns out she was a freshman on the Curtis High golf team that he coached before going to work for Spieth. The girl now is a senior.

France reaches final 16 at Women’s World Cup

By The Associated Press

France scored early and often to reach the last 16 at the Women’s World Cup, England also progressed while South Korea came from behind to eliminate Spain in Wednesday’s dramatic conclusion to the group stage in Canada. The French scored the opening goal after just 34 seconds and were up 3-0 inside 13 minutes as they beat Mexico 5-0. That was enough for Les Bleues to top Group F on goal difference ahead of England, which beat Colombia 2-1. Despite the loss, Colombia still progressed as one of the four third-placed nations with the best records. Brazil completed a perfect group record by beating Costa Rica 1-0, with the late goal knocking out the Central American team, but the drama in Group E came in the other match, where South Korea scored twice in the second half to beat Spain 2-1. The round of 16 begins on

Saturday when Germany faces Sweden and China takes on Cameroon. Sunday’s matches will be France vs. South Korea, Brazil vs. Australia and host Canada against Switzerland. The United States meets Colombia on Monday when England will face Norway, and the second round will be completed on Tuesday when defending champion Japan meets the Netherlands.

fastest goal in the history of the Women’s World Cup — to begin the rout of Mexico. Jennifer Ruiz had an own goal in the ninth minute, and Eugenie Le Sommer made it 3-0 with a mid-air tap-in. Le Sommer added her second goal in the 36th, and Amandine Henry got the final goal in the 80th. Mexico exits the tournament still looking for its first World Cup win. It has played nine matches, drawing three and losing six while being outscored 30-6.

New drama features real ‘Wives’ By DAVID WIEGAND

ABC’s new series, “The Astronaut Wives Club,� can’t make up its mind if it wants to be a serious, nuanced factbased drama about the wives of the Mercury Seven astronauts, or “The Real Housewives of Cape Canaveral.� Fortunately, there’s enough legitimate drama in the show, premiering at 8 p.m. today, to counterbalance its cheaper moments. The show was created by Stephanie Savage from the book “The Astronaut Wives Club: A True Story� by Lily Koppel and is based on the real women who were married to the nation’s original seven astronauts. The names of these space pioneers are known to us today: John Glenn, Scott Carpenter, Alan B. Shepard, Deke Slayton, Gus Grissom, Wally Schirra and Gordon Cooper. In the late ’50s and early ’60s, you might have also known the names of their wives, because NASA was intent on marketing the Mercury Seven and their families as epitomizing American idealism. The framework for the NASA spin campaign, in “Astronaut Wives Club,� is an exclusive story in Life magazine about the seven women who stand beside — or preferably, a step behind — their heroic husbands. Max Kaplan (Luke Kirby) is virtually embedded with the wives to write the story. The mastermind of the PR campaign is Duncan Pringle (Evan Handler), and he has every intention of making the wives fit the marketable image of supportive, subservient women behind the men in space. It’s impossible to overstate American obsession with the space race in the 1950s and early ’60s. Everything was at stake. The U.S. had to play catch-up with the Soviet Union or else ... or else what? Ask many Americans at the time and they’d probably say that if the Russkies got to space first, the next step would be to conquer the U.S. It was that important. When Nikita Khrushchev vowed, “We will bury you,� most Americans interpreted his words as the threat of a

Kidman honored at awards LOS ANGELES (AP) — When Nicole Kidman was a young actress, Jane Campion offered her a role in one of her early films. Kidman declined the part because it required her to wear a shower cap and kiss a girl, and she dreamed of being the kind of actress who had long, flowing hair and kissed boys. Kidman still regrets missing this opportunity, she said Tuesday as she accepted a trophy at Women in Film’s Crystal + Lucy Awards. She said she is no longer afraid to attempt the unexpected, urging women to “take risks, raise our voices and honor the fire within.� The Oscar winner also pulled a shower cap from her purse and declared she was “ready ... to kiss any woman in the room.� Longtime friend Naomi Watts, who presented Kidman with her award, took her up on the offer. Also honored during the dinner ceremony at the Century Plaza Hotel were director Ava DuVernay, “Transparent� creator Jill Soloway, actress Kate Mara, talent agent Toni Howard and top Warner Bros. executive Sue Kroll. Women in Film has presented its Crystal + Lucy Awards since 1977 to raise funds for the organization and recognize trailblazing women in the industry. Kristen Stewart and “Twilight� author Stephenie Meyer made a surprise appearance to introduce a group of young female filmmakers who won the opportunity to make short films inspired by the “Twilight� series with funding and guidance from industry professionals. Others stars in attendance included Sandra Bullock, Phylicia Rashad, Regina King, Angie Harmon, Laura Linney and Judith Light. Maria Bello was the evening’s host.

DESMOND HARRINGTON, left, and Christina DeRosa star in the new ABC series “The Astronauts Wives Club,� premiering at 8 p.m. today. would-be conqueror, but in fact, the Russian premier was talking about the inevitability of communism’s supremacy over capitalism.

LOTS AT STAKE The space race wasn’t just about technology and science — it was about the rightness of everything American. The problem with the NASA PR campaign was that parts of it were lies. Louise Shepard (Dominique McElligott) is careful not to let the public know how terrified she is when her husband, Alan (Desmond Harrington), becomes the first American in space (Soviet Yuri Gagarin got there first). She’s so committed to the space program and the projection of marital perfection that she pretends not to see her husband’s dalliances with other women. Marge Slayton (Erin Cummings) is terrified that the press and public will find out she was married once before. Worse, she’s never told Deke

(Kenneth Mitchell) she is a divorcee. Annie Glenn (Azure Parsons) has a serious stammer. She is terrified of speaking in public and rehearses a statement to give to the press after her husband, John’s (Sam Reid), historic orbital flight in 1962. Rene Carpenter (Yvonne Strahovski) speaks her mind, and it goes against the carefully nurtured image of the God-fearing modern American woman. One of the marriages is virtually a sham as the series begins, a hastily arranged reunion for public relations purposes. The women may look like Donna Reed, but some, at least, are proto-feminists. They bristle at being told how to look and what to say. They are far more than merely support personnel for their husbands, or mothers to their children. And the longer they are required to toe the official line for NASA, the more smothered they

Yauch resulted in a hardfought legal match. “Presiding over trial and hearing the surviving Beastie Boys’ testimony, it was apparent to the court that this case had great personal significance to them,� he said. “Monster’s commercial exploitation of the band’s music and songs, and what the Beastie Boys perceived as Monster’s crass misappropriation of the name of the recently deceased Yauch in its video promoting its energy drinks, appeared to have deeply offended plaintiffs.� Yauch died of cancer in May 2012 at age 47. The judge said Beastie Boys’ band members Adam “Ad-Rock� Horovitz and Michael “Mike D� Diamond approached the case “with special zeal,� testifying that as a matter of principle they have not licensed their music for product advertisements and would have turned down Monster if it had asked for permission. Lawyers for Monster and the Beastie Boys did not immediately return messages seeking comment Tuesday. The Beastie Boys, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, have turned out four No. 1 albums and sold more than 40 million records as they helped bring hip-hop to the mainstream over the last three decades.

NEW YORK (AP) — The maker of the Monster Energy drink must pay $668,000 of the Beastie Boys’ legal fees after the rappers chose to win at all costs in their copyright violation trial, a decision that resulted in a $1.7 million jury verdict in their favor, a judge says. U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer wrote in a ruling Monday that his review of the band’s legal bills suggests that the “Beastie Boys opted to pay for, and received, the ‘Cadillac Escalade,’ not the ‘Honda Civic’� of legal representation. He said his attorney fee award fell well short of the $2.4 million in legal fees that was sought from the Corona, Calif.-based Monster Energy Co., but it was still sizable enough that the band will come out ahead by more than $532,000 above its reasonable costs. Last June, the Beastie Boys — known in part for the anthem “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)� off their 1986 debut album — won their verdict from a federal jury weighing the value of five songs used by Monster without authorization in a video. Engelmayer wrote that the lawsuit brought by two surviving Beastie Boys and the wife of deceased band member and gravelly voiced rapper Adam “MCA�

The show’s credibility is enhanced by a mostly successful blend of archival footage with re-created scenes. However, the technique falls completely flat when the astronauts and their wives gather for a ticker-tape parade in New York after Glenn’s flight. The number of extras along the route is shown to be embarrassingly sparse when we see overhead shots of the real parade, with hordes of people lining the streets. You can feel the writers trying not to give in to an obvious temptation to overstate rivalry and mistrust between the women, especially in the pilot episode. Fortunately, the friction never reaches the cat fight level, but it suggests that history is both a friend and adversary of the show. On the one hand, “Wives Club,� like “Mad Men,� mines one of the richest moments in American history. On the other, unlike Megan Calvet, Betty Hofstadt and Joan Harris, these are real women, and dramatic possibilities of their TV stand-ins are limited by facts. We feel the push and pull of history in some of the weaker moments of the series, but if the writers stick to the facts and resist the temptation to go full “Real Housewives,� “The Astronaut Wives Club� should take off.

NBC dropping Williams as anchor By The Associated Press

PEOPLE

NEW YORK — Brian Williams won’t return as NBC “Nightly News” anchor at the conclusion of his suspension for misrepresenting his role in a news story and following an investigation into other alleged misstatements. The New York Times and CNN both reported an announcement on Williams’ future was expected today. NBC News officials and Robert Barnett, Williams’ representative in negotiations with the network over the past several weeks, would not comment Wednesday on the reports. Williams and NBC have been discussing an undefined role for him at the network. Lester Holt has subbed for Williams on NBC’s evening newscast and is the odds-on favorite to be his permanent replacement. NBC has been tight-lipped about its negotiations with Williams, who signed a new contract to be the network’s chief news anchor last fall. Williams was suspended in

February for falsely saying that he was in a helicopter hit by enemy fire during an Iraq War reporting trip. ❏❏❏ SALEM, Ore. — Journey drummer Deen Castronovo has been released on bail after being accused of domestic violence in Oregon. Castronovo, 50, was arrested Sunday. At an arraignment Monday, he was charged with misdemeanor assault and menacing. Bail was set at $20,000. Marion County Deputy District Attorney Jean Kunkle wrote in court papers that Castronovo knowingly caused physical injury to a woman. Castronovo’s attorney, Jeffrey Jones, said his client is deeply saddened by the accusations and confident that no criminal conduct occurred. A plea hearing is scheduled June 30. In the meantime, the drummer is not allowed to

have contact with the woman. Castronovo has been with Journey since 1998, when he replaced Steve Smith. Castronovo made news this year when he donated $10,000 to an Oregon high school after an arsonist burned down its band room. ❏❏❏ NEW YORK — Donald Trump has decided to find another campaign song. A press secretary for the real estate mogul said Wednesday that Trump would respect the wishes of Neil Young and no longer use “Rockin’ In the Free World,” which Trump featured Tuesday during his announcement that he was seeking the Republican Party’s nomination for president. Young, a Canadian who supports liberal Democrat Bernie Sanders, had objected and said the song was played without his permission. “Rockin’ In the Free World,” released in the late 1980s, is a scathing condemnation of war and poverty that criticizes then-President George H.W. Bush, a Republican.

Trump press secretary Hope Hicks said Wednesday that “despite Neil’s differing political views, Mr. Trump likes Neil very much.” ❏❏❏ LOS ANGELES — Melissa Rivers is taking her late mother’s place as co-host of the TV series “Fashion Police.” The E! channel said Wednesday that Rivers will join fellow hosts Giuliana Rancic and Brad Goreski when the celebrity fashion critique series returns this summer. Rivers will continue to serve as executive producer. In a statement, E! channel executive Jeff Olde said that as an original producer with the show, Rivers helped create its blend of fashion and comedy. Melissa Rivers’ mother, famed comedian Joan Rivers, died in September at 81 after complications from minor throat surgery. Kathy Griffin joined “Fashion Place” as cohost earlier this year but left after seven episodes, saying it didn’t fit with her kind of comedy.

Widow gets guilt for trying to end affair DEAR ABBY: I have been having an affair with a married man for eight years. At first, both of us were married, but my husband died two years ago. Since then, my lover and I have grown closer, but he won’t leave his wife because of his kids. I love him dearly, but cannot go on living life this way. He doesn’t want me to see other people. Every time I try to end it, he talks me out of it and makes me feel guilty for trying. I need help, please. — MESSED UP IN MINNESOTA DEAR MESSED UP: Dear Abby is The little voice that’s written by telling you you can’t go Abigail Van on living this way is Buren, also your rational thinking. known as The one that’s talking Jeanne you out of moving on Phillips, and is coming from a selfwas founded by her mother, ish individual who is thinking only of his Pauline own interests and not Phillips. yours.

DEAR ABBY

As it stands, your lover has a harem. If that’s fine with you, I can’t change your mind. But if it isn’t, remove the blinders from your eyes and end this romance because it is going nowhere and probably never will. DEAR ABBY: I’m in a quandary. Many years ago, we rescued a precious 4-yearold and her newborn brother from a horrific living situation and tried to adopt them. After more than a year and 16 contentious court hearings, we were devastated when the court returned them to their mother. I’m sure they have no idea how hard we fought for them, and I still love them dearly and keep tabs on them as best I can. The girl is now 18, and I am retiring and will be moving away. I have a bin of baby things, school mementos, etc. for each of them that I’ve kept all these years, and which I will return to them. However, I also have the many photographs that documented their indescribable living conditions, the police reports, the court documents, etc. I strongly feel these should be destroyed, because to see and read this graphic information would be far too

traumatic and would serve no good purpose. What do you think? Is it right to withhold this from them? — HOLDING ON IN CALIFORNIA DEAR HOLDING ON: I don’t believe in withholding information, so before you do, I think you should tell the young woman what you have and let her make the final decision about what should be done with it. DEAR ABBY: I have heard this but never believed it: When a woman is beautiful, men are afraid to ask her out for fear that they will be turned down. I am 65, and all my life I have (luckily) been told that I am beautiful. I have imperfections, but if I were a man, I would be proud to be seen with me. Men stutter around me, so they don’t ask me out. I attract younger men, but I live in a small town and I wouldn’t want to start rumors. Please tell me what you think about my dilemma, and will I ever find a soul mate. — WONDERING IN GEORGIA DEAR WONDERING: You will find a soul mate after you stop worrying about what people say about you. At your age, eligible men are scarce, so if someone younger shows interest, don’t make your decisions on outdated stereotypes, take him up on it!

In 1812, the War of 1812 began as the United States Congress approved, and President James Madison signed, a declaration of war against Britain. In 1873, suffragist Susan B. Anthony was found guilty by a judge in Canandaigua, N.Y., of breaking the law by casting a vote in the 1872 presidential election. (The judge fined Anthony $100, but she never paid the penalty.) In 1908, William Howard Taft was nominated for president by the Republican National Convention in Chicago. In 1940, during World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill urged his countrymen to conduct themselves in a manner that would prompt future generations to say, “This was their finest hour.” Charles de Gaulle delivered a speech on the BBC in which he rallied his countrymen after the fall of France to Nazi Germany. In 1945, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower received a tumultuous welcome in Washington, D.C., where he addressed a joint session of Congress. William Joyce, known as “Lord Haw-Haw,” was charged in London with high treason for his English-language wartime broadcasts on German radio. (He was hanged in January 1946.) In 1953, a U.S. Air Force Douglas C-124 Globemaster II crashed near Tokyo, killing all 129 people on board. Egypt’s 148-year-old Muhammad Ali Dynasty came to an end with the overthrow of the monarchy and the proclamation of a republic. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson and Japanese

Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda spoke to each other by telephone as they inaugurated the first trans-Pacific cable completed by AT&T between Japan and Hawaii. In 1975, NBC launched its News and Information Service, an all-news radio network. (NIS lasted until May 1977.) In 1979, President Jimmy Carter and Soviet President Leonid I. Brezhnev signed the SALT II strategic arms limitation treaty in Vienna. In 1983, astronaut Sally K. Ride became America’s first woman in space as she and four colleagues blasted off aboard the space shuttle Challenger on a six-day mission. In 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Georgia v. McCollum, ruled that criminal defendants could not use race as a basis for excluding potential jurors from their trials. Entertainer Peter Allen died in San Diego County, Calif., at age 48.

BRIDGE ♥♣♠♣

Willie Tyler, a ventriloquist, comedian and thespian, said, “The reason lightning doesn’t strike twice in the same place is that the same place isn’t there the second time.” That sounds logical, although an overbid on the power of lightning. The key word for today’s deal, though, is “second.” A defender’s opening lead imparts information about his holding in that suit, but sometimes it takes his second lead to tell partner exactly how to defend. How does that apply in this deal?

South is in three notrump, and West leads the heart three. South takes East’s queen with his king, crosses to dummy with a spade, and runs the club queen. What should happen after that? The auction was simple and straightforward. North, with a balanced hand and no thought of a slam, correctly did not mention his minor suit. West knows that South holds the heart jack, because if East had had that card, he would have played the jack, not the queen, at trick one. When playing third hand high, one tables the bottom of touching cards. So, unless South started with an unlikely king-jack-doubleton, West must try to get East on lead for a heart return through declarer’s jack. How? Clearly, the answer is in diamonds. But which diamond should West lead? As he wants East to return a heart, West should lead his nine, the high card denying interest in that suit. Then, East should win with his ace and return the heart nine, resulting in down two. Tune in tomorrow for the antithesis of this deal. COPYRIGHT: 2013, UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE
