GOOD MORNING Megan Thwaites crowned Miss Northeast BUTLER — Megan Thwaites of Garrett was crowned Miss Northeast 2014 Sunday night during the 41st Miss Northeast Scholarship Pageant at the Millie Hansen Auditorium in Butler.

Thwaites, 21, is a senior at Ball State Thwaites University.

For her talent, Thwaites performed a jazz dance to a selection from the musical, “9 to 5.”

She is a graduate of DeKalb High School. Her parents are John and Sandra Thwaites of Garrett.

Paige Grate of Auburn was first runner-up for Miss Northeast, and Julianna Zehr of Spencerville was second runner-up.

Megan Smaltz, a junior at DeKalb High School, was named Miss Northeast’s Outstanding Teen 2014. She performed a tap dance for her talent.

Smaltz is the daughter of Ben and Smaltz Shelley Smaltz of Auburn.

Victoria Ruble of Garrett was named first runner-up for Oustanding Teen, and Sarah Ehmke of Waterloo was second runner-up.

Thwaites and Smaltz will compete for the titles of Miss Indiana and Miss Indiana’s Outstanding Teen 2014 next June in Zionsville.

Miss Northeast contestants must live, work, or go to school in DeKalb or Steuben counties.

President Obama celebrates birthday WASHINGTON (AP) — Instead of “Hail to the Chief,” President Barack Obama most likely heard strains of “Happy Birthday” this weekend.

Obama, who turned 52 on Sunday, spent part of the day at the Camp David presidential retreat in Maryland.

The White House said little about how he celebrated.

The president played golf Saturday with friends from his days in Hawaii and Chicago. Some of them joined him at Camp David.

Farrand soon will be 81 and says he still flies at least once a week.

All those flying hours have not been solely for recreation. Farrand is one of the nation’s foremost experts in making sure experimental aircraft are safe. He is an innovator in that field — that’s one of the reasons he was honored by the EAA. Farrand was a part of the original EAA designee program in the 1960s. In addition to helping others ensure safety in building and flying, he has achieved major accomplishments in the aviation community, including co-designing and piloting the first powered parachute in the United States and building and demonstrating some

SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Security forces closed roads, put up extra blast walls and increased patrols Sunday near some of the more than 20 U.S. diplomatic missions in the Muslim world that Washington had ordered closed for the weekend following warnings of a possible al-Qaida attack.

The closures came with a call for Americans abroad to take extra precautions throughout August, particularly when using planes, trains and boats, though some veteran expatriates shrugged off the warnings.

“I have been here long enough to know where and where not to go,” said Brian Edwards, a professional basketball player from Detroit, Michigan, who has lived in Egypt for nearly six years. “I feel generally safe.”

Some warned, meanwhile, that such security measures are not sustainable.

“It sets a precedent,” said Shadi Hamid, an analyst with the Brookings Doha Center. “What happens if you keep on getting credible threats?”

The countries with closure orders covered much of the Muslim and Arab world, from Mauritania in the west to Bangladesh in the east.

The State Department said 19 diplomatic posts will remain closed through Saturday “out of an abundance of caution.” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the decision to keep the embassies and consulates closed is “not an indication of a new threat.”

Diplomatic facilities will remain closed through Saturday in Egypt, Jordan, Libya, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, among other countries.

In recent days, U.S. officials have said they have received significant and detailed intelligence suggesting a possible attack, with some clues pointing to the al-Qaida terror network. The State Depart-

LIGONIER — Lowell Farrand of Ligonier has lived a life of quiet satisfaction, concentrating on the activity that makes him the happiest: flying.

Now at age 80, Farrand has been honored by the aviation industry for his many decades of dedication to aviation safety and research.

He flew last week to Oshkosh, Wis., where Thursday night he received the 2013 Tony Bingelis Award, recognizing his involvement in the homebuilt aviation community. It was presented by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) at the group’s annual convention.

“I’ve been flying since 1946.

Back in those days, we would just fly for fun,” he said. “I was

Since then, I’ve logged 5,280 hours in the air.”

The rural Ligonier home of Farrand and Gaylia, his wife and navigator of 61 years, opens up onto a flying strip in their backyard, making it convenient to fly whenever the feeling hits.

As a youngster, Farrand built model airplanes.

“And as soon as I got old enough, I would ride my bike to the Goshen airport and wash the bugs off the planes for the pilots,” he said. “Finally, they let me start taxiing and putting them away

Hit-and-run driver accelerated Clock LOS ANGELES (AP) — The driver parked outside a hotel and surveyed the leisurely summer scene at the Venice Beach boardwalk: Hundreds of people were sitting at cafes, walking along the seashore or shopping at vendors selling jewelry or art.

Then, according to surveillance video, the man got into a large black car, steered around a vehicle barrier and accelerated mercilessly through the crowd, hitting one person after another as bystanders tried desperately to get out of the way.

Saturday’s hit-and-run killed an Italian woman on her honeymoon and hurt 11 others who only a moment earlier had been enjoying an afternoon near the beach at the height of vacation season.

A couple of hours later, authorities arrested a man on suspicion of murder after he walked into a police station in neighboring Santa Monica and said he was involved.

Nathan Louis Campbell, 38, of Los Angeles, remained jailed Sunday on $1 million bail.

Police declined to discuss a motive but Deputy Chief Kirk Albanese said there was no indication that the attack was a terrorist act or that anyone else was involved.

By the time it was over, the driver had covered about a quarter of a mile along the boardwalk before fleeing. The entire incident was over in minutes.

Witnesses reported a horrifying aftermath.

People were ” stumbling around, blood dripping down their legs, looking confused not knowing what had happened, people screaming,” said Louisa Hodge, who described “blocks and blocks of people just strewn across

The Italian woman was identified as Alice Gruppioni, 32. Her family in Bologna told the Italian news agency LaPresse that she had been on her honeymoon after a July 20 wedding.

Gruppioni worked as a manager for the family business Sira group, which makes radiators. Her father, Valerio Gruppioni, runs the company and was formerly president of the Bologna soccer team, according to LaPresse.

The family declined to speak to The Associated Press on Sunday.

Another person was critically injured. Two others were taken to hospitals in serious condition.

Eight suffered less serious injuries, police said.

According to security video and witness accounts, the driver parked next to the Cadillac Hotel and

twice walked out to the boardwalk before getting into the Dodge Avenger. He carefully maneuvered between a storefront and metal poles that had been erected to prevent anyone from driving onto the boardwalk.

Then he stepped on the accelerator and plunged into the crowd.

“I heard a big ‘boom, boom,’ like the sound of someone going up and down the curb, it was super loud,” said Alex Hagan, who was working the desk at the hotel.

The driver knocked over two mannequins and an ATM and started hitting people, swerving from side to side and often running straight into victims.

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s highest security body warned Sunday that the clock is ticking for a peaceful end to the standoff over sit-ins by supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi, suggesting that authorities will break up the protests unless mediation efforts produce results soon.

More than a month after the military overthrew Morsi, thousands of the Islamist leader’s supporters remain camped out in two main crossroads in Cairo demanding his reinstatement. Egypt’s militarybacked interim leadership has issued a string of warnings for them to disperse or security forces will move in, setting the stage for a potential showdown.

Also Sunday, authorities announced that a court case accusing the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and his powerful deputy of inciting violence will start Aug. 25. Morsi hails from the Brotherhood.

Small budget hurting state’s tourism efforts INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana’s effort to promote its attractions is losing ground to better-funded neighbors, but the state’s top tourism official hopes to change that with a new plan to generate revenue and persuade people to explore all the Hoosier state has to offer.

Mark Newman, head of the Indiana Office of Tourism Development since late 2012, says he wants to change how the state promotes its attractions, including developing a new tourism slogan more focused on Indiana’s rural areas.

He also hopes to increase the use of social media to promote attractions.

It all takes money, and the tourism office is in short supply. Since 2009, the agency’s budget has fallen from $3.9 million to less than $2 million, the Indianapolis Business Journal reported. The department’s staff has fallen from 12 to four over the last decade, and several marketing publications have been discontinued.

Meanwhile, Michigan spends $27.4 million on its Pure Michigan ad campaign, and Illinois spends more than twice that despite having the nation’s worst credit rating.

Kentucky and Ohio have travel budgets two to four times greater than Indiana’s.

Tourism experts acknowledge Indiana has a big hill to climb to catch up.

“I’d say on a scale of one to 10, our brand awareness is a two. I’d hesitate to give it a three,” said Bruce Bryant, president of locally based Promotus Advertising Co., which formerly worked on the state’s tourism account.

Bryant said the budget is so lean that even many Hoosiers aren’t aware of the attractions in their own state.

“We’re losing people from Indiana who are passing over attractions we have right here at home.

They’re doing it because they’re being bombarded with those Pure Michigan ads and messages from Ohio and Illinois,” he said.

Denise Miller, Indiana’s

tourism director from 1989-1992, now is vice president of Strategic Marketing and Research Inc., a tourism and hospital research firm based in Carmel.

Miller said tourism agencies nationwide are focused primarily on outreach.

“How do you outreach?

The most effective method is advertising, and that costs money,” Miller said.

Tourism officials say Indiana has great attractions but no one to tell the story of places like French Lick, the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and the architecture of Columbus.

“People, potential travelers, often start with the perception of the state,” Hoops said. “You don’t start with the perception of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Yosemite and the Redwoods. You start with your perception of California. It’s the same way here. The Indianapolis brand is tied directly to the Indiana brand.”

Newman, who was hired

by Gov. Mitch Daniels and retained by Gov. Mike Pence, has big plans to turn things around.

He wants a $4 million budget — $2 million from tax dollars and another $2 million generated by the tourism office.

He’s enlisting a Pennsylvania company to create a “research platform” that better tells how tourism affects the state’s economy.

Another effort includes replacing the “Restart your engines” slogan with one more closely tied to rural areas and launching a fall marketing campaign featuring the new tag line.

Another effort, tested last year at a Noblesville elementary school, involves developing a tourism curriculum for fourth-graders that combines history and tourism.

Newman hopes to bring in enough money through ad sales and other efforts to double his staff and at least double the advertising budget.

Stutzman, Donnelly blast VA care FORT WAYNE — The situation at a health care facility for area veterans is inexcusable, U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., said over the weekend.

Stutzman and U.S. Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., issued statements responding to Friday’s release of a Stutzman report on the suspension of inpatient care at the Fort Wayne campus of the VA Northern Indiana Healthcare System.

The report came from the Veterans Administration Office of Inspector General, Office of Healthcare Inspections. Last November, Donnelly and Stutzman requested that the agency review the decision to pause all inpatient care at the Fort Wayne facility.

They asked for a review of

the overall quality of care and management at the facility, issues leading to the suspension of inpatient care, and what measures are needed to reopen the facility to normal operations.

“The VA’s failures, as outlined by the Inspector General’s report, are upsetting and inexcusable,” Stutzman said. “The Veterans Health Administration must implement the Inspector General’s recommendations without delay. Veterans who defended our freedoms now depend on the VA and deserve nothing less than the highest quality care right here in Fort Wayne.

I will continue to work closely with Sen. Donnelly to ensure that the VA is held accountable and that veterans in our community receive the care they deserve.”

“What we learned from the VA Office of Inspector General today regarding the

Fort Wayne VA hospital is completely unacceptable,” Donnelly said Friday. “The most troubling finding is that conditions last year, resulting in the suspension of inpatient services, stemmed from a years-long pattern of poor hospital leadership and a lack of quality care that placed its patients at risk. Those who have served our nation have earned access to quality healthcare, and VA facilities in Indiana and across the country must be capable of providing the highest level of care.”

Donnelly added, “As the report indicates, the Fort Wayne facility needs better management, additional high-skill medical professionals with the competencies needed to provide care, and overall, a method for holding its care providers accountable. I expect the Veterans Health Administration and Fort Wayne VA hospital to begin working immediately to implement

Indiana Emmy nominee nearly passed on role MISHAWAKA (AP) — At first, Adam Driver was hesitant when his agent suggested he pursue a role on a new series HBO was putting together.

“I was in the middle of a play at the time,” Driver told the South Bend Tribune. “I felt like TV isn’t where I want to be.”

Driver, however, knew HBO was different, having worked on the cable network’s “You Don’t Know Jack.” He decided to go for it.

Fortuitous decision.

The 2001 Mishawaka High School graduate last month picked up an Emmy nomination for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series for his work on the cable

network’s series “Girls.”

“My wife was online. I was in the kitchen making eggs,” Driver said. “She told me I’d just been nominated for an Emmy.

No sooner than she said that my agent called with the news. I thought she was incorrect, that she had made a mistake.”

It wasn’t just his past experience with HBO that encouraged Driver to go for the role. It was the chemistry with the show’s creator, producer and lead actress Lena Dunham as well.

“Her personality was so palpable. It was so easy to get on board after meeting with her,” Driver said. “It was a no-brainer.”

The respect between

actors is clearly mutual.

Dunham, who is also nominated for an Emmy for outstanding lead actress in comedy series, won a Golden Globe for the role in January.

During her acceptance speech, Dunham made special mention of Driver.

“I really want to say a special thank you to Adam Driver, who basically made me feel not like a cartoon character but like a person who could express emotions,” Dunham said. “I don’t think you know how meaningful it’s been to work with you.”

Driver said it was surreal moment.

“For her to mention me in front of a room full of

people I grew up watching was the biggest honor,” he said. “It meant a great deal to me. For her to acknowledge our collaboration in the way she did was pretty special.”

It was special for Driver’s mom, Nancy Wright, who still calls Mishawaka home. She was watching when Dunham mentioned her son during the national broadcast of the Golden Globes.

“I was just tickled pink he was up there,” she said with a laugh. “Then (Dunham) said that. … To me, that was my proudest moment.”

Wright said she is thrilled for her son’s success and proud of him for pursuing his dream.

American heritage, witnessed the dedication Saturday that included some singing, drums and native presentation ceremony to officially open Waapaahsiki Siipiiwi Mound Historical Park at Fairbanks.

Organizers said the Miami Nation of Indians in the state of Indiana named the park, Waapaahsiki Siipiiwi, which means Wabash River, in their Algonquian language.

“We have created a park to honor two Indian mounds that have been historically documented,” said Susan Petoskey, member of The Sullivan County American Indian Council.

“Mounds are normally

along rivers,” she said, adding that the mound surrounded by the trail at the park is a ceremonial mound.

The property is owned

by Indiana Michigan Power, AEP but the Sullivan County American Indian Council, a non-profit organization, is the caretaker of the land and park.

This site was supposedly inhabited more than 1,000 years ago.

According to files provided by the council, archeologists conducted a shovel dig around the site — not on the mound — in recent years and dated the site to the prehistoric era, specifically 500-1650 A.D.

It’s seven o’clock in the morning, the sun is well above the eastern horizon, the sky is clear, the temperature is already above 70 degrees and climbing rapidly toward 80, 90, maybe even a hundred. It’s going to be another hot day.

I’m sitting at my desk, my computer screen before me, the first sentences of an article on the screen.

But I’m not looking at the computer screen. I’m looking out the window behind the screen, watching birds flying back and forth to the bird feeder outside, thinking about how they’re coping with the hot weather.

The birds are singing less, for one thing. Earlier in the year, and the day, there would have been a chorus of birds as the sun rose, robins, cardinals, song sparrows, mourning doves, red-winged blackbirds, a brown thrasher, a house wren, white-breasted nuthatches and black-capped chickadees. This morning, I’ve heard two robins sing a few times, a cardinal, a couple of mourning doves.

Now I hear only the chips and chucks of redwings, cowbirds and grackles and the whistling of mourning doves’ wings as they fly in and out.

Part of the decline in bird singing is the season. Earlier in the year, the males were singing to announce their territories and to attract mates. Now they are mated, some have nests and young.

Some have already raised broods.

Some are feeding NEIL CASE nestlings or leading fledglings, teaching them to care for themselves.

Birds are less active, too, when the weather is hot, particularly during the hottest part of the day. They perch in the shade when the temperature soars, sitting with bills open, panting like dogs. They fluff out their feathers allowing air to reach their skin. Some pulse their throats in and out, an activity called gular fluttering. Even those with nestlings or fledglings rest through the hottest hours of the day. There will be few to no birds at my feeder when the temperature is highest.

While many birds will sit in the shade when it’s

Park’s trees spell ‘Studebaker’ NEW CARLISLE (AP) — Many Bendix Woods visitors see the copse of red and white pine trees and think nothing more.

But, then again, they’re not airborne.

The trees spell out the world’s largest living sign — a half-mile-long STUDEBAKER dotting the landscape in the county park and visible from the air.

The sign, which was planted 75 years ago, is in need of restoration, to St. Joseph County Parks Director Evie Kirkwood told the South Bend Tribune (http://bit.ly/1cnlS05). With the community’s help, the St. Joseph County Parks Foundation hopes to raise at least $25,000 to begin work on restoring the piece of living history.

“This sign is totally unique,” Kirkwood said. “As

hot, others will be in or near water. Not just the swimmers and waders.

Other birds, too. There they will drink, wade, bathe and splash. Bird baths will attract more birds than bird feeders. Robins will walk about in the grass where lawn sprinklers spray.

Birds suffer from heat just as we do, perhaps even more than we do, for they have no sweat glands and cannot sweat to relieve themselves somewhat from the heat. They have no air conditioning, either. The only relief from the heat for many birds is shade and water.

The same is true for us when we go outside on hot summer days. There we walk or sit in the shade. We wear broad- brimmed hats.

Some ladies carry parasols.

Many people go to lake and seaside beaches and sit under beach umbrellas when they’re not in the water.

Municipal swimming pools are crowded on hot sunny days.

Soaring birds, vultures and red-tailed hawks and other buteos fly higher when the weather is hot. Rising currents of warm air make it easier for them to fly higher, but also it’s said to be cooler higher in the sky.

far as we know, it still holds the Guinness Book of World Records entry for largest living sign.”

In 2011, the parks department staff was approached by members of the Indiana Landmarks Association, Kirkwood said. They came with the idea of creating a management plan for the sign.

Completed in February 2012, the plan inventoried, plotted and detailed all the trees in the sign, as well as established a goal for restoration, she said.

Problems include dead and dying trees, encroachment of trees that aren’t pines and large amounts of underbrush. Once this is cleared away, she said, park officials will look into what areas need to be replanted.

Recently, the Jeffris Family Foundation of

Wisconsin offered a $9,000 challenge grant, if the parks foundation could raise $18,000 by Sept. 14, 2014, she explained.

Donations are currently accepted in all amounts through the park foundation website (www.sjcparks.org, click “Foundation” image) and by calling the park office, Kirkwood said.

Individuals can also adopt letters of the sign for $2,000 each. If all 10 letters are adopted, the park foundation will meet the goal for the challenge grant.

Already, four letters have been adopted, Kirkwood said. They’ve currently raised just over $8,000 in the past week for the project.

The idea for the aerial tree sign came from former Studebaker engineer Otto Klausmeyer in the late 1920s, according to a first-person account kept at Bendix Woods. They originally were no more than

Food hubs help growers find customers FRANKLIN (AP) — Customers meandered from bin to bin, inspecting thick cucumbers, deep red and green peppers and bunches of carrots.

The roadside stand at Weaver’s Produce was filled with the bounty of an unusually good spring for growing. Peaches, cantaloupe, and sugar baby watermelons were stacked in piles, dwarfed by the bin filled with Indiana sweet corn picked that morning.

Juicy green beans, plump

tomatoes and of course sweet corn are summer staples in central Indiana.

Weaver’s Produce has specialized in providing fresh produce to people passing by their stands in Franklin and Shelbyville.

But owner Jeremy Weaver is always looking for new ways to make a sale. And now local residents can get the farm-fresh produce they want all at once, simply by going online.

Area farmers such as

Weaver are banding together with digital food distributors to form “food hubs.”

The system gathers freshly picked, locally grown fruits and vegetables, as well as locally raised meat and dairy to be packaged together for weekly deliveries to customers.

“You’re getting fresh produce, truly fresh. It wasn’t picked four or five days ago and trucked 2,000 miles across country. It was picked here,” Weaver said.

A cardinal at a birdbath.

Vultures and wood storks defecate on their legs when the temperature is high.

Measuring body temperatures of black vultures and American wood storks, an investigator found that this seemingly disgusting habit, now called urohidrosis, was actually a way of cooling.

As the liquid evaporated from their legs, the birds’ body temperatures were

reduced.

It’s going to be another hot day. But the weatherman is forecasting a change, a cooling trend, high temperatures in the low 80s, even the high 70s. And what will the birds do then? Probably much the same as they are today, sing little and rest during the middle of the day. Summer is passing, after all.

County raising money to save ‘living sign’

ALBION — A Spencerville man was booked into the Noble County Jail Thursday, the Noble County Sheriff’s Department said.

Ethan Cox, 21, of the 6800 block of S.R. 1 was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated-endangering a person.

8-inch saplings — 8,000 of them, to be exact.

Now, just shy of 2,000 60- to 90-foot trees create the still-legible sign, though assistance is needed to keep the sign around, Kirkwood said.

“The U.S. Forest Service puts the life span of a red or white pine at 150 years,” Kirkwood explained. “We’d like to keep the sign around for another 75 years.”

People from all over the country know about the sign, thanks to the lasting popularity of the Studebaker automobile, she said.

Henry and Clement Studebaker opened a blacksmith shop in South Bend in 1852 — what ultimately became the beginnings of the famous brand, according to the Studebaker Museum’s online history.

Though the Studebaker production line hasn’t run in almost 50 years, the iconic Subscribe to

cars formerly produced in South Bend are still popular today, apparent in worldwide Studebaker clubs, full of enthusiastic members.”It has this interesting tie to local cultural history, but it’s also much bigger because of the national fame,” Kirkwood said.

If all goes well, restoration work might begin in the late fall or winter of 2014, Kirkwood said.

Around that time, there may be a call for volunteers to help with clearing underbrush, she said.

The park staff also will celebrate the 75th year of the sign with a Studebaker Tree Diamond Jubilee on Sept. 21, Kirkwood added.

Activities will include a car show, historical presentations, and crafts and games.

In this Sept. 12, 2012, file photo, Florida Gov. Rick Scott talks with a group of teachers at a school in Fort Walton Beach, Fla. as part of his Education Listening tour of the state. Not long after some tea party stars took office, political analysts said, they were forced to adapt to the realities of governing and the changing political landscape, particularly in states President Obama won in last year’s election.

4 years in, Tea Party must adapt MIAMI (AP) — This wasn’t the revolution the tea party had in mind.

Four years ago, the movement and its potent mix of anger and populism persuaded thousands of costumed and sign-waving conservatives to protest the ballooning deficit and President Obama’s health care law. It swept a crop of no-compromise lawmakers into Congress and governor’s offices and transformed political up-and-comers, including Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, into household names.

But as many tea party stars seek re-election next year and Rubio considers a 2016 presidential run, conservative activists are finding themselves at a crossroads. Many of their standard-bearers have embraced more moderate positions on bedrock issues such as immigration and health care, broadening their appeal in swing states but dampening grass-roots passion.

“They keep sticking their finger in the eyes of the guys who got them elected,” said Ralph King, a co-founder of the Cleveland Tea Party Patriots. “A lot of people are feeling betrayed.”

The tea party is a loosely knit web of activists, and some are hoping to rekindle the fire with 2014 primary challenges to wayward Republicans. But many more say they plan to sit out high-profile races in some important swing states next year, a move that GOP leaders fear could imperil the re-election prospects of former tea party luminaries, including the governors of Florida and Ohio.

“It changes the playing field for us,” said Tom Gaitens, former Florida director of FreedomWorks, a political action committee that has spent millions of dollars to help tea party candidates. “The most powerful thing we have as a movement is our feet and our vote.”

In the summer of 2009, tea party supporters stormed congressional town hall meetings, shouting down lawmakers who had voted for the bank bailout and the stimulus package. The movement’s voice grew louder after Democrats passed the health care overhaul, and voters took their outrage to the polls in 2010.

New Iranian president vows support for Assad BEIRUT (AP) — Iran’s new president expressed his country’s support to Syria’s embattled leader Bashar Assad’s regime Sunday, saying no force in the world will be able to shake their decades-old alliance.

Hasan Rouhani’s comments came as Syrian troops and rebels fought some of the fiercest battles in the mountains of the coastal province of Latakia, an Assad stronghold.

Rouhani made the comments during a meeting in the Iranian capital of Tehran on Sunday with Syrian Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi, Syria’s state news agency SANA said.

Syria has been Tehran’s strongest ally in the Arab world since Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Iran has been one of Assad’s strongest backers since Syria’s crisis began.

Tehran is believed to have supplied Assad’s government with billions of dollars

since the country’s crisis began in March 2011.

Iran-supported Hezbollah also has sent fighters into Syria to bolster an offensive

by Assad forces.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran aims to strengthen its relations with Syria and will stand by it in facing all challenges,” SANA quoted Rouhani as saying in a report from Tehran. “The deep, strategic and historic relations between the people of Syria and Iran … will not be shaken by any force in the world.”

Rouhani was elected in June and was endorsed by the country’s supreme leader on Saturday, allowing him to begin acting as president.

He was sworn in Sunday.

Rouhani condemned foreign intervention in Syria, saying that the Arab country is passing through a “failed attempt” to strike at the “axis of resistance and rejection to Zionist-American plans in the region,” SANA quoted him as saying.

CHANCES: Threats, dates were specific in nature FROM PAGE A1

ment said the potential for terrorism was particularly acute in the Middle East and North Africa, with a possible attack occurring on or coming from the Arabian Peninsula. “The threat was specific as to how enormous it was going to be and also that certain dates were given,�

Rep. Pete King, R-N.Y., who chairs a House panel on counterterrorism and intelligence, told ABC on Sunday.

King said he believes al-Qaida “is in many ways stronger than it was before 9/11 because it has mutated and it’s spread in dramatically different locations.�

The terror network’s Yemen branch, known as al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, “is the most deadly of all the al-Qaida affiliates,� King said.

In Jordan, a counterterrorism official said available information pointed to a potential threat to U.S. interests in the Arabian Peninsula, specifically in Yemen, and that this prompted the temporary closure of U.S. missions across the Muslim world.

He spoke on condition of anonymity as he wasn’t

the military, and after his service, Farrand made a living servicing electronics.

He specialized in whatever consumer product was popular at the time, such as television sets, moving on to video cameras in more recent years.

There’s no mistaking which home is Farrand’s, northwest of Ligonier.

Outside his home sits a old, twin-engine propeller plane he restored. It’s a familiar landmark for area residents.

And now, whenever he flies, his wife is right next to him, serving as navigator to one of the most important men in American aviation history.

of the game than anyone else, when it came to small aircraft,� Farrand said.

Farrand is a founding chapter member and the Young Eagles coordinator of EAA Chapter 132, based in Elkhart, which since its inception has been known as “the builders unit.� He previously received the “Man and Machine� prize from the EAA in 1972 for his efforts at the Oshkosh air show, considered the gold standard of small aircraft gatherings.

He has spent a lifetime inspecting airplanes that need air-worthiness stickers to be able to fly.

A Yemeni soldier inspects a car at a checkpoint on a street leading to the U.S. embassy in Sanaa, Yemen, Sunday.

authorized to discuss the issue with journalists.

In Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, security was beefed up Sunday around the U.S. Embassy building and the nearby Sheraton Hotel where U.S. Marines stay.

Police set up a checkpoint at an access road leading to the embassy, asking some drivers for identification before letting them pass. Soldiers typically guard the area around the embassy, but on Sunday they were spread out in a wider radius. Cars were prevented from stopping outside the Sheraton, where two armored vehicles sat out front.

A Yemeni security official said the request for extra security came from Washington. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information.

Extra security also could be seen near U.S. embassies in Bahrain, Iraq and Jordan.

In the Iraqi capital of Baghdad, troops set up new blast barriers last week to block several streets leading into the city’s already heavily fortified Green Zone, home to the sprawling U.S. Embassy and Iraqi government offices.

woman who does tattooing.

Two women who appeared to be in their 60s were also hit. Many people ran after the car, screaming and cursing as it sped away, Hagan said.

Golestan Alipour was bartending at Candle Cafe & Grill when the menacing vehicle drew near. “The restaurant was full.

Everybody ran,� Alipour said.

It was not immediately clear how fast the car was going.

The driver eventually turned up a side street and headed away from the ocean.

The car was later found abandoned less than two miles away, police said.

At the scene, detectives searched for evidence across the boardwalk, which is in a part of Los Angeles known for eccentricities. The 1.5-mile ribbon of asphalt — which runs along the sand a few hundred yards from the ocean — is home to galleries, restaurants, tattoo shops,

skateboard parks and the famous outdoor weight room known as Muscle Beach. It can draw as many as 150,000 people on summer weekends.

Hodge said she and her friend, Ashley Taylor, had noted the large number of people walking along the seaside. “It was a really nice day.

There were tons of people out. In fact, we were talking about how packed it was, because we were having a hard time getting through all the people,� Hodge said.

The two women stopped to buy ice cream and a couple of hats, which may have saved their lives. They stepped out of a store as emergency crews arrived.

Hodge saw a man and woman lying next to each other, wearing head braces, barely able to move but grasping hands.

Los Angeles Councilman Mike Bonin said there have been previous problems with motorists accidentally driving onto the boardwalk, especially during the evening, because many

entrances aren’t blocked and there are no signs warning them about entering a pedestrian area.

However, four yellow metal poles blocked the roadway used by the hit-and-run driver, who squeezed past the barrier by driving onto a sidewalk, authorities said. “The frightening part,�

Bonin said, was that this part of the boardwalk was “one of the more protected streets.�

The crash was not far from where an elderly driver sped through an open-air farmer’s market in Santa Monica in 2003, killing 10 people and injuring more than 70 others.

Investigators said George Weller, who was 86 at the time, mistakenly stepped on the gas instead of the brake and then panicked.

He was doing up to 60 mph when he plowed through the market. Weller was convicted of 10 counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence and was sentenced to probation.

EGYPT: Current regime’s patience is running out FROM PAGE A1

more than 250 people — at least 130 of whom pro-Morsi protesters shot dead by security forces — since the July 3 military coup.

While diplomats raced to find a compromise, the Egyptian interim government signaled that its patience with the pro-Morsi sit-ins was running out.

The National Defense Council, which is led by the interim president and includes top Cabinet ministers, said the timeframe

for any negotiated resolution should be “defined and limited.� The council also said any negotiated resolution would not shield from legal proceedings what it called “law-breakers� and others who incite against the state.

The group called on the protesters to abandon the sit-ins and join the political road map announced the day of Morsi’s ouster.

With the Islamist-backed constitution adopted last year suspended and the legislature dominated by Morsi’s

supporters dissolved, the road map provides for a new or an amended constitution to be put to a national referendum later this year and presidential and parliamentary elections early in 2014.

In a move that underlined the government’s resolve in dealing with the protests — now in their second month — Egyptian authorities denied Yemen’s Nobel Peace Prize winner Tawakkul Karman entry into Egypt after she landed at Cairo airport on Sunday.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; In algebra, students are required to show the steps taken to come to their answer, in part because teachers need to see whether they grasp the concepts.

Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former state superintendent Tony Bennett hid his calculations when coming up with the schoolgrading formula last year, working backward to make the equation fit a predetermined answer: an â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;? for Republican donor Christel DeHaanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charter school. His staff was quietly asked to figure out the rest.

The only reason the grade-changing scandal was unveiled was because it was detailed in emails he never deleted from his computer.

The fallout has cost Bennett his seven-month tenure as education commissioner in Florida and launched a pair of state reviews into the validity of a school-grading system thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at the center of a national education overhaul movement.

Bennett called the reports last week â&#x20AC;&#x153;malicious and unfoundedâ&#x20AC;? as he resigned in Florida, but school superintendents in Indiana said the emails finally began to give them the answers they so desperately searched for last year from Bennett and his team.

In Indiana, the state protects emails as public records. Jim Corridan, state archivist and director of the Indiana Commission on

Public Records, points out that substantive emails â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including any dealing with policy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; must be saved for three years.

For the most part, emails can be legally â&#x20AC;&#x153;destroyedâ&#x20AC;? after that time frame, and not every trivial note â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like if Bennett had wrote his wife to say heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be late for dinner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; must be preserved.

But actually obtaining copies of crucial emails is a tough task, as state officials often rely on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;work productâ&#x20AC;? exception to argue the missives should not be released.

When the Purdue University Board of Trustees appointed by then-Gov. Mitch Daniels chose him to run the university, information on his hiring was nearly impossible to come by.

The Lafayette Journal and Courier filed a complaint last year that the board violated the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s open meetings law by holding an executive session at an undisclosed location in Chicago Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hare International Airport. But the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public access counselor, also appointed

by Daniels, determined that simply knowing the meeting would happen at the out-ofstate location was open enough.

When the Indianapolis Star went looking for records of the deliberations over Danielsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hiring, Purdue wrote back it had none, and even it did, the public couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see them.

Tiger coasts to victory AKRON, Ohio (AP) — They say par is a good score in a major.

If that’s true next week at the PGA Championship, then Tiger Woods has already done his share of preparation.

Woods played safe and smart with a big lead, parring 16 holes in an even-par 70 Sunday to coast to a seven-shot victory at the Bridgestone Invitational for his eighth win at the event — matching the PGA Tour record he already shared for victories in a single tournament.

“As blustery as it was, it was going to be really hard for someone to shoot 62 or 63,” Woods said. “If I didn’t give any shots away and played my game and shot even par or better, I’d force these guys to go and shoot something super low on a golf

course that wasn’t going to give it up under these conditions.”

As he walked to the scorer’s trailer to finalize his score, he scooped up 4-year-old son Charlie, who hugged him tightly as his father strode past the large gallery wildly cheering his landslide victory.

“This is the first win he’s ever been at,” Woods said. “That’s what makes it special for both of us.”

Daughter Sam was on hand when Woods, won the U.S. Open in 2008, before his personal life imploded. Now Charlie will have some memories of dad in the winner’s circle.

“They always say, ‘Daddy, when are you going to win the tournament?’ It was a few years there, or a couple years, I hadn’t

won anything,” Woods said, smiling. “‘Are you leading or not? That’s a stock question. ‘Not leading.’ ‘Well, are you going to start leading?’ ‘Well, I’m trying.’”

After a second-round 61 in which he flirted with 59, Woods ended up at 15-under 265 to easily beat defending champ Keegan Bradley and Henrik Stenson.

Bradley, a huge fan of Tiger’s as a youngster, was asked if he liked to see Woods dominate like he did a decade or so ago.

“When I was younger, I did,” Bradley said. “You know, I hate to sit here and go on and on about how good he is, but he is. It’s difficult because I really want to get up there and contend with him.

But he’s just … this week he’s playing really well.”

Detroit Tigers’ Victor Martinez looks to the home plate umpire after beating the tag of Chicago

White Sox catcher Tyler Flowers during Sunday’s game.

Tigers beat White Sox in 12 DETROIT (AP) — Torii Hunter’s day off came to an abrupt end in extra innings.

That was fine with the Detroit outfielder — especially once he was smiling and celebrating after hitting the winning single.

Hunter’s line drive to left-center field in the 12th inning gave the Tigers a 3-2 victory over the White Sox on Sunday, stretching Detroit’s winning streak to eight games and Chicago’s losing streak to 10. Hunter was out of the starting lineup, but he entered in the 10th with the game tied.

“I thought I had a day off, but when you come to the park, you enjoy the first couple innings.

Once that fifth inning hits, you just go down to the tunnel and get yourself loose,” Hunter said.

“That’s the way you’ve got to approach it.”

Miguel Cabrera, who has been dealing with hip and abdominal problems, led off the Detroit 12th with a pinch-hit single. Matt Tuiasosopo ran for him and went to second on a sacrifice bunt by Austin Jackson. Hunter’s single off Dylan Axelrod (3-8) drove in the winning run.

Detroit Tigers Torii Hunter singles to left field to score teammate Matt Tuiasosopo from second to win the baseball game in the 12th inning against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.

career win.

The Tigers have won 12 of 13, and take a three-game lead in the AL Central into a four-game series at second-place Cleveland.

“The starting pitchers are having quality starts, and our bullpen is coming in and getting the job done,” Hunter said.

“Timely hitting, our defense looks good … all cylinders are clicking right now. We’re just going to ride that bike until the wheels fall off.”

Adam Dunn homered and had four hits for Chicago. Paul Konerko added a solo homer in the ninth for the White Sox to force extra innings.

The White Sox have lost 10 straight for the first time since June of 1976. They were aggressive early on, and it ended up backfiring.

With one out in the first, Alexei Ramirez left first base early, trying to steal second. Pitcher Rick Porcello eventually realized what was happening and stepped off the rubber, catching Ramirez in a rundown.

The next three hitters reached base on two singles and a walk, but Chicago stranded them all and came out of the inning with no runs.

“We had them on the ropes early, but you’ve got to push them across the plate if you’re going to win,” White Sox manager Robin Ventura said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Alex Rodriguez will be suspended Monday, likely through the 2014 season, as part of Major League Baseball’s latest drug investigation but can play while he appeals, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press.

Major League Baseball informed the New York Yankees on Sunday that A-Rod will be suspended for his links to a clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs, the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity because no statement was authorized.

The Yankees weren’t told the exact length of the suspension, though they were under the impression it will be through the 2014 season, the person said. The Yankees star could get a shorter penalty if he agrees to give up the right to file a grievance and force the case before an arbitrator, the person added.

A suspension from Monday through 2014 would add to 214 games, and an unsuccessful appeal could stretch serving the penalty into 2015. In the era before players and owners agreed to a drug plan in late 2002, arbitrators often shortened drug suspensions — in the case of Yankees pitcher Steve Howe, his penalty was cut from a lifetime ban to 119 days.

MLB planned an announcement for noon EDT Monday, a second person familiar with the deliberations said.

Rodriguez is the most famous player linked to the now-closed Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic in Florida, and the Yankees expect him to be charged with interfering with MLB’s investigation, resulting in a harsher penalty than the other 13 players facing discipline. All-Stars Nelson Cruz of Texas, Jhonny Peralta of Detroit and Everth Cabrera of San Diego were among those who could get 50-game suspensions from the probe.

Kahne holds off Gordon to win at Pocono Raceway LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Jeff Gordon had the inside line, a lead and his first win of the season in sight, usually a sure thing for Pocono’s top winner.

Kasey Kahne was about out of time to pass his Hendrick Motorsports teammate.

“It was either to go for it and make it work,” Kahne said. “Or not.”

Cruising from the outside, Kahne got the jump he needed, zipped past Gordon and pulled away with two laps left Sunday to win at Pocono Raceway.

“I about gave it away when Jeff got by me,” Kahne said.

Kahne recovered in the No. 5 Chevrolet for his second victory of the season, all but securing his spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. He had the car to beat for the final half of the

Kasey Kahne (5) leads the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday at Pocono Raceway. Kahne won, while Jeff Gordon was second.

400-mile race until a late caution bunched up the field.

Gordon nudged past Kahne after some thrilling two-wide racing and seemed poised to win at Pocono for the seventh time.

After the final caution, Kahne was simply too fast, too strong to be denied his first win at Pocono

since 2008.

So close to the checkered, this loss stung Gordon. Even worse, his runner-up finish came on his 42nd birthday in his 42nd career Pocono start.

“I thought all I needed to do was get in here and got to the bottom and I’d be good,” Gordon

said. “He got a killer run and blasted by on the outside of me.

Caught me by surprise. It just kills your momentum.”

Kurt Busch, who also celebrated a birthday, Ryan Newman and Dale Earnhardt Jr. rounded out the top five. The top five cars were Chevrolets.

Busch helped out Kahne with one final push down the frontstretch.

“That was kind of the race at that point,” Kahne said. “Once I cleared (Gordon) getting into two, from there it was just, don’t make a mistake and try to run the quick lap on the last one.”

Kahne, Gordon and Earnhardt made it an outstanding race for Hendrick. Teammate and series points leader Jimmie Johnson was 13th after a blown tire knocked him out of the lead.

Burnett goes the distance PITTSBURGH (AP) — A.J. Burnett scattered eight hits and Russell Martin provided some rare run support for the right-hander with a three-run homer to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-1 win over the Colorado Rockies on Sunday.

Burnett (5-7) struck out nine and walked one in his first complete game of the season and 23rd of his 15-year career. He threw 110 pitches, 83 for strikes.

Martin’s home run came in the fifth inning and put the Pirates ahead 5-0.

Burnett hasn’t gotten much backing this season, and owns a losing record despite a 2.73 ERA. The Pirates, who have the best record in the major leagues at 67-44 following 20 consecutive losing seasons, maintained their 1½-game lead in the NL Central over St. Louis.

Colorado starter Juan Nicasio (6-6) struggled for

a second consecutive start, giving four runs and six hits in 4 1-3 innings with three walks and four strikeouts.

He allowed a career-high eight runs in his previous start Tuesday at Atlanta.

Dodgers 1, Cubs 0 A.J. Ellis hit an RBI single, Stephen Fife pitched into the sixth inning and Los Angeles extended its franchise-record road winning streak to 14 with a win over Chicago.

The Dodgers haven’t lost on the road since July 6 in San Francisco. The NL record for consecutive road wins is 17 by the New York Giants in 1916. Detroit was the last to win 14 straight in 1984.

The Cubs haven’t scored for 23 straight innings.

Fife (4-3) struck out five and allowed seven hits in 5 1-3 scoreless innings.

Kenley Jansen struck out the side in the ninth for his 17th save in 20 opportunities.

Cubs starter Carlos Villanueva (2-8) allowed a run and two hits in six innings.

Cardinals 15, Reds 2 Matt Carpenter broke his 0-for-23 slump with a bases-loaded double during the Cardinals’ decisive rally, and St. Louis ended a tough trip on the upswing by beating Cincinnati.

The Cardinals went 3-8 on a trip that included seven straight losses — four of them in Pittsburgh, allowing the Pirates to overtake them for the NL Central lead.

Carpenter’s two-run double off the wall completed a five-run rally in the sixth against Mike Leake (10-5) and two relievers. Matt Adams, David Freese and Tony Cruz homered for the Cardinals, who have scored 13, 13, 3 and 15 runs in their last four games.

Lance Lynn (13-5) allowed two runs on four

hits in eight innings. He struck out 11.

Brewers 8, Nationals 5 Jeff Bianchi lofted a single that dropped just behind a drawn-in infield, breaking a tie and capping a five-run sixth inning as Milwaukee beat Washington.

With the score tied 4-4 and runners at second and third, Bianchi’s soft bloop off Fernando Abad (0-3) dropped in back of second base as Anthony Rendon raced back to make a play.

It allowed Khris Davis to score from third and Juan Francisco to just beat the throw home with a perfect slide.

John Axford (5-4) allowed a home run to Adam LaRoche in the top of the sixth but nothing else to earn the win. Jim Henderson pitched the ninth for his 15th save in 18 chances.

Milwaukee snapped a three-game losing streak.

Charlie Kimball raises the first place trophy in victory circle after winning the Honda Indy 200 on Sunday.

Kimball earns first career win at Indy 200 LEXINGTON, Ohio (AP) — Charlie Kimball is a diabetic. A condition the IndyCar driver manages with a mixture of vigilance, discipline and perspective.

Kind of like the way he handles the horsepower at his fingertips.

Six years after the diagnosis that changed his life and two-plus seasons into a career blossoming right under his feet, the guy who used to wonder if he’d get to do this for a living is now a race winner.

Kimball slipped by Simon Pagenaud with 18 laps remaining then pulled away to win the Indy 200 on Sunday at Mid-Ohio, his triumph validation that the plan team owner Chip Ganassi put in place when he hired Kimball as the third driver on his powerful team remains very much on schedule.

“The last couple years, we got the experience, we built the foundation,” Kimball said. “As a team we’re ready to win.”

It certainly looked like it after Kimball’s crew decided to ditch the initial strategy that asked him to save as much fuel as he could with his No. 83 Honda, figuring two pit stops instead of three would be the quickest route to victory lane.

After a few trips around the tricky 2.258-mile circuit, Kimball knew the only way he could win would come if he punched it. While top qualifiers Ryan HunterReay, Will Power and Scott Dixon eased off the gas to stretch their mileage, Kimball pressed his foot to the floor figuring he could make up whatever precious seconds he lost by pitting three times if he just kept the hammer down.

It worked better than he imagined, propelling the 28-year-old to the top

of the podium and erasing any lingering doubts he had about whether he belonged in North America’s top open-wheel series.

“Getting the win quiets a lot of voices for sure,” Kimball said. “Especially the ones within myself.”

The moment when the goal Ganassi set out when he brought on Kimball three years ago happened with less than 20 laps to go. Kimball surrendered the lead to Simon Pagenaud when he ducked into the pits for the last time, then tried to erase the deficit when Pagenaud went in for his final pit stop.

Pagenaud managed to exit pit lane with the lead then held off a hard-charging Kimball, sending Kimball briefly into the grass.

The triumph only proved temporary.

Kimball remained right in Pagenaud’s rearview and slipped by at the end of the long straightaway nearing Turn 4 then had little trouble the rest of the way, a move he called “50 percent momentum and 75 percent commitment.”

The remainder of the top five wasn’t in sight as Kimball zipped by the finish line to continue Ganassi Racing’s dominance at arguably the most difficult road course on the schedule.

The team has now won each of the last five visits to the 13-turn test tucked in central Ohio.

Pagenaud held on for second while Dario Franchitti took third. Power was fourth followed by Hunter-Reay and series leader Helio Castroneves.

Dixon, who was bidding to become the first IndyCar driver since 2006 to take the checkered flag in four straight races, never threatened and finished seventh.

OAKLAND, Calif.

(AP) — Derek Holland gave up four hits in eight stellar innings, Nelson Cruz and Mitch Moreland each hit a home run and Ron Washington became the winningest manager in Rangers history as Texas beat the Oakland Athletics 4-0 on Sunday.

Adrian Beltre had two hits and drove in a run for the Rangers, who have won six of seven to move within 2 1-2 games of the AL West-leading Athletics.

Nate Freiman had two hits for the A’s, who have lost four of five.

Holland (9-6) walked two and matched his season high with 10 strikeouts to end a personal two-game losing streak.

A.J. Griffith (10-8) lasted 6 2-3 innings, allowing four runs — three earned — on five hits. He walked one and struck out seven. Griffin has allowed a majors-leading 28 home runs in 2013 and became the first Oakland pitcher to give up two or more in four straight starts since Mark Redman in 2007.

Washington, who coached for Oakland for several years, passed Bobby Valentine with his 582nd win.

Mariners 3, Orioles 2 Seldom-used Henry Blanco hit a two-run homer in the seventh off Wei-Yin Chen, and Seattle beat Baltimore behind left-hander Joe Saunders.

Batting ninth in the lineup, the 41-year-old

AP

Texas Rangers pitcher Derek Holland works against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.

Blanco sent an 0-2 pitch into the left-field seats to erase a 2-1 deficit. The backup catcher was playing in his 32nd game of the season, the 17th with Seattle after being signed as a free agent.

Saunders (10-10) worked out of trouble in almost every inning but improved to 7-0 lifetime against Baltimore after allowing two runs, eight hits and two

walks in six innings.

Chen (6-4) gave up three runs and five hits over seven innings in his first loss since May 1.

Blue Jays 6, Angels 5 Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion drove in the tying and go-ahead runs with two-out singles in the ninth as Toronto beat Los Angeles to avoid a four-game sweep.

Mark Trumbo hit a

three-run homer and Mike Trout also went deep against Mark Buehrle, helping the Angels build a 5-2 lead for C.J. Wilson. But the Blue Jays rallied with two in the eighth, as Angels manager Mike Scioscia used five pitchers to get out of the inning.

Frieri (0-4) ended the eighth by catching Colby Rasmus’ popup in front of the mound, but gave up a single by Brett Lawrie and plunked No. 9 hitter J.P Arencibia to open the ninth.

Brett Cecil (5-1) earned the victory and Casey Janssen got his 19th save in 21 chances.

Twins 3, Astros 2 Justin Morneau and Oswaldo Arcia homered, and four relievers combined for four scoreless innings to lead Minnesota to a three-game sweep of Houston.

Arcia led off the seventh with a home run that broke a 2-all tie. He connected against Brad Peacock (1-4), who was promoted from Triple-A to make the start and struck out 10.

Caleb Thielbar (2-1) got two outs for the win and Glen Perkins earned his 27th save.

The Twins hadn’t swept a series, or won three games in a row, since June 18-20 against the Chicago White Sox. The Astros have lost four straight overall.

Twins starter Mike Pelfrey went five innings but remains winless since July 6.

TIGER: PGA Championship up next for 79-time tour winner FROM PAGE B1

Woods’ mastery at Firestone Country Club allowed him to again match Sam Snead’s PGA Tour record for wins in an event.

Snead won the Greater Greensboro Open eight times. Earlier this year, Woods won at Bay Hill for the eighth time.

As if he weren’t already the favorite next week in the PGA Championship at Oak Hill, the lopsided victory reinforced it.

No one ever got within six shots all day of the world’s No. 1.

When he had a good shot at a pin, he took it.

Otherwise, he took few, if any, risks.

He birdied the 10th hole, then offset that with a three-putt bogey at the 14th hole. But by then most of the field was thinking about catching flights to Rochester instead of catching Woods.

Bradley, who won a year ago when Jim Furyk double-bogeyed the 72nd hole, shot a 67 to get to 8 under along with Stenson, who had a 70 while playing with Woods.

“He kind of punctured this tournament on Friday,” Stenson said. “He did what he needed to do today.”

Tied for fourth were Cleveland-born Jason Dufner (71), Miguel Angel

AP

Tiger Woods holds the trophy after winning the Bridgestone Invitational on Sunday.

Jimenez (69) and Zach Johnson (67) at 6 under.

Bill Haas and Chris Wood each shot a 71 and were at 5 under, with Martin Kaymer,

who matched the day’s best round with a 66, at 4 under along with Furyk, Richard Sterne and Luke Donald.

For those betting Woods

won’t win next week at Oak Hill, keep in mind that he has already won both the Bridgestone and the PGA Championship in the same year three times in his career (2000, 2006, 2007).

Still, the odds do not favor him coming right back with another win. In the 19 times in which he has won his last start before a major, he’s only followed up with a win four times: 2000 U.S. Open (after winning The Memorial), 2001 Masters (Players), 2006 PGA (Buick) and 2007 PGA (Bridgestone).

The victory was Woods’ 79th on the PGA Tour, drawing him within three of Snead’s record 82 triumphs.

“The total body of work is pretty good,” Woods said. “One of the things I’m proud of, obviously, is how many times I’ve won, plus won World Golf Championships and how many years I’ve won five or more tournaments in a season.

What is it, like eight or nine times? Ten? That’s not bad, either.”

Lest anyone think he’ll have difficulty surpassing Snead’s total, consider that Woods is over 10 years younger (he’s 37½) than Snead was when he won his 82nd and final event, the 1965 Greater Greensboro.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Park goes 74-78, ends bid for 4 straight majors ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — Inbee Park’s bid for a Grand Slam ended long before she walked up to the 18th green at St. Andrews, giving her plenty of time to find perspective.

“I’ve done something amazing this season,” she said. “I won three straight majors. I don’t know if I can do that again.”

Winning four straight professional majors in one season remains out of reach.

Park had a better chance than anyone, though it ended early Sunday at the Women’s British Open when she went the wrong direction to finish her third round nine shots behind, and then four-putted for double bogey on the first hole of the final round.

Park closed with rounds of 74 and 78 and tied for 42nd, 14 shots behind Stacy Lewis.

Since the modern version of the Grand Slam began in 1960 — Bobby Jones won two professional and two amateur majors in 1930 — Park was the only player to win the first three majors of a season. The only other pro to do that was Babe Zaharias in 1950, when the LPGA Tour had only three majors.

Ben Hogan won three majors in 1953, though the British Open at Carnoustie was held one week after the PGA Championship. Hogan couldn’t play the PGA Championship, physically because of his battered legs and logistically because Open qualifying was the same week as the PGA. Tiger Woods won the final three majors of 2000 after tying for fifth in the Masters.

Stosur beats top-seeded Azarenka in Carlsbad final CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) — Sam Stosur won the Southern California Open on Sunday for her first title in nearly two years, beating top-seeded Victoria Azarenka 6-2, 6-3.

The fifth-seeded Stosur had lost all of her previous eight matches against Azarenka, winning only two sets.

The title was Stosur’s third in her career and the first since she won her only major, the 2011 U.S. Open.

Azarenka, the two-time Australian Open champion, committed 32 unforced errors, including seven double faults, and had only 11 winners.

Woodland wins Reno-Tahoe Open RENO, Nev. (AP) — Gary Woodland holed a 58-foot chip from the rough for one of his four birdies and got up-anddown to save par five times to win the Reno-Tahoe Open for second PGA Tour victory.

Woodland had 44 points in the modified Stableford format that awards eight points for double eagle, five for eagle, two for birdie, zero for par, minus-one for bogey and minus-three for double bogey or worse.

Jonathan Byrd and Andres Romero tied for second with 35 points, and Brendon Steele had 33 at Montreux Golf Club on the edge of the Sierra.

Woodland, also the 2011 Transitions Championship winner as a tour rookie, earned $540,000 for the victory and got a spot next week in the PGA Championship.

Pernice closes strong to win 3M Championship BLAINE, Minn. (AP) — Tom Pernice Jr. birdied the final two holes for a one-stroke victory over Jeff Sluman and Corey Pavin in the 3M Championship.

Pernice finished with a 4-under 68 and had a 17-under 199 total at the TPC Twin Cities for his second career Champions Tour victory. He also has two PGA Tour victories.

Sluman closed with a 62, and Pavin had a 66.

Trailing Sluman by one shot at the par-3 17th, Pernice made a long birdie putt to pull even. At the par-5 18th, hit his second shot to 8 feet and two-putted for the winning birdie.

Del Potro beats Isner for 3rd title in Washington WASHINGTON (AP) — Top-seeded Juan Martin del Potro solved John Isner’s big serve and pulled away for a 3-6, 6-1, 6-2 victory in the Citi Open final Sunday, winning his third championship and 14th consecutive match in Washington.

In the women’s final, seventh-seeded Magdalena Rybarikova of Slovakia beat unseeded Andrea Petkovic of Germany 6-4, 7-6 (2) to win the Citi Open for the second consecutive year. The 43rd-ranked Rybarikova is 10-0 in Washington, where she’s won half of her four career titles.

Younger Americans die earlier and live in poorer health than their counterparts in other developed countries, with far higher rates of death from guns, car accidents and drug addiction, according to a new analysis of health and longevity in the United States by the Institute “We expected to see of Medicine some bad news and and the National some good news,” Dr. Research Woolf said. “But the Council.

The U.S. ranked near and findings were Deaths at the bottom in almost stark. before age every heath indicator. 50 accounted for about That stunned us.” two-thirds of the difference in life expectancy between males in the U.S. and their counterparts in 16 other developed countries, and about one-third of the difference for females. The countries in the analysis included Canada, Japan, Australia, France, Germany and Spain.

The 378-page study by a panel of experts convened by the Institute of Medicine and the National Research Council is the first to systematically compare death rates and health measures for people of all ages, including American youths.

The panel called the pattern of higher rates of disease and shorter lives “the U.S. health disadvantage,” and said it was responsible for dragging the country to the bottom in terms of life expectancy over the past 30 years.

American men ranked last in life expectancy among the 17 countries in the study, and American women ranked second to last.

“Something fundamental is going wrong,” said Dr. Steven Woolf, chairman of the Department of Family Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University, who led the panel. “This is not the product of a particular administration or political party. Something at the core is causing the U.S. to slip behind these other high-income countries. And it’s getting worse.”

Panelists were surprised at just how consistently Americans ended up at the bottom of the rankings. The U.S. had the second-highest death rate from the most common form of heart disease, the kind that causes heart attacks, and the second-highest death rate rom lung disease, a legacy of high smoking rates in past decades. American adults also have the highest diabetes rates.

The U.S. has the highest infant mortality rate among these countries, and its young people have the highest rates of sexually transmitted diseases, teen pregnancy and deaths from car crashes. Americans lose more years of life before age 50 to alcohol and drug abuse than people in any of the other countries.

Americans also had the lowest probability over all of surviving to the age of 50.

“We expected to see some bad news and some good news,” Dr. Woolf said. “But the U.S. ranked near and at the bottom in almost every heath indicator. That stunned us.”

There were bright spots. Death rates from cancers that can be detected with tests, like breast cancer, were lower in the U.S. Adults had better control over their cholesterol and high blood pressure. And the very oldest Americans — above 75 — tended to outlive their counterparts.

The panel sought to explain the poor performance. It noted the U.S. has a highly fragmented health care system, with limited primary care resources and a large uninsured population. It has the highest rates of poverty among the countries studied.

Education also played a role.

Americans who have not graduated from high school die from diabetes at three times the rate of those with some college, Dr. Woolf said. In the other countries, more generous social safety nets buffer families from the health consequences of poverty, the report said.

Still, even the people most likely to be healthy, like college-educated Americans and those with high incomes, fare worse on many health indicators.

The report also explored less conventional explanations. Could cultural factors like individualism and dislike of government interference play a role? Americans are less likely to wear seat belts and more likely to ride motorcycles without helmets.

Legislature doing what it can to reduce meth use You probably heard about the recent incident involving an active methamphetamine lab at the Noble County Community Fair. I wish I could say that this is a rare occurrence in our community, and that events like this are unlikely to be repeated, but over the past few years there has been a dramatic increase in meth-related crimes.

In an interview earlier this year, I said that I would like to see bolder action against this drug, and I stand by that statement. Regardless of political affiliation, unifying on this issue to take a stand against the expansion of meth throughout REP. Indiana will strengthen every community.

In 2012, the Drug Enforcement Agency collected data regarding the nation’s meth epidemic. Indiana ranked 3rd highest for most reported incidents, implying that yes, law enforcement is putting meth producers and users behinds bars, but also a considerable amount of meth activity is taking place.

According to the DEA, of the 11,210 national meth-related cases involving labs, dump sites and chemical/glass/equipment, Indiana was home to 1,429 incidents. In an interview with WTHR, Indiana State Police Sergeant Niki Crawford said that nearly every county in Indiana saw at least a 20 percent increase in meth labs in the last year.

While it is difficult to legislate a problem

like this, the General Assembly is making strides to strengthen the consequences for those who manufacture, distribute or possess meth.

This year, the General Assembly passed legislation combating the issue of meth manufacturing and distribution.

Senate Enrolled Act 496 designates that ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, a critical ingredient to meth commonly found in cold medicines, may be sold only by a pharmacy or a retailer that uses the National Precursor Log Exchange (NPLEx) tracking system.

NPLEx allows law enforcement DAVID agencies to monitor ephedrine or pseudoephedrine amounts sold to OBER individuals, ensuring that these products are purchased in reasonable amounts. Before SEA 496, a consumer could purchase up to 86.4 grams per year, but this new law reduces that number to 61.2 grams — determined by doctors and pharmacists to be a reasonable annual amount for the use of cold relief or easement of sinus pressure.

This was a step in the right direction, but we need to think outside the box to create policy giving more resources to law enforcement, enabling them to find a more effective way to get to the root of the problem instead of just catching users and dealers.

“Methland: The Death and Life of an American Small Town” is a book I’ve been reading about a town in Iowa that tells the true story of drug abuse in rural America and how one community saw their destruction coming and fought back.

• story of drug abuse in rural America and how one community saw their destruction coming and fought back. Many states around the country are facing the same battle we are, and we need to look at their successes and draw inspiration from them.

My thoughts and opinions on the drug problem in our area have changed drastically as I’ve learned more and more about the issue.

It isn’t an easy situation to understand or fix, and I’m interested to hear your thoughts on how to combat this growing danger that threatens our safety, our community and our families. Please contact me at 317-232-9643 or email at h82@iga.in.gov to share your ideas.

STATE REP. DAVID OBER, R-ALBION, represents all of Noble County and portions of Allen, Elkhart, LaGrange and Whitley counties.

Remember the spy ship USS Pueblo The winter of 1968 was a very bad time for the United States. The My Lai massacre. The Battle of Khe Sanh. The Tet Offensive. The individual executed by a South Vietnamese soldier and the photograph of the killing flashed around the world.

Amid all that, North Korea seized an American spy ship, the USS Pueblo. If you are old enough to remember where you were when you first heard “Hey Jude” or if you actually know the words to “Love Is Blue,” then you do not have to be told the significance of the loss of the Pueblo. You also do not have to go to wikipedia.com to identify Lloyd M. Bucher.

Bucher, who died nine years ago, was the captain of the Pueblo, which was no prize, except to the North Koreans, adept then as now in transforming the symbolic into the dramatic. There were demands for the court martial of Bucher, who, against maritime doctrine, gave up the ship, though the Navy finally acknowledged the captain might have been more canny than cowardly.

In retrospect we now see that while the seizure of the Pueblo was mortifying and maybe avoidable, Bucher did assure that a relatively minor incident didn’t become the War of Jenkins’ Ear of 1968, when the United States had bigger worries, like keeping the country from falling apart in a year that would soon include two assassinations, violence at a national political convention, a series of urban riots and the withdrawal of a president from his re-election campaign.

In this year of 50th anniversaries of all things 1963 — we are only weeks away from the commemoration of the March on Washington led by Martin Luther King Jr., the first of the 1968 assassination victims — it may seem premature to linger on events of 1968. They will have their commemorations in five years.

Indeed, we are examining 1968 and the seizure of the Pueblo only because of another anniversary — the 60 years that have passed since the signing of the armistice that ended the most forgotten of American wars, the Korean conflict. President Barack Obama had the good grace the other day to offer a crisp little commemoration, saying that the veterans of that war “deserve better,” which they did

and do.

But in Pyongyang, where a fantasy-eyed 29-year-old ruler is outdoing his progenitors in the ludicrous, the festivities were more lavish, the rhetoric more ridiculous and the ballistic missiles planted on mobile launchers more menacing.

That 60-year commemoration was extended a few days last weekend when the North Koreans unveiled the ship, smartly freshened with a new coat of paint for a new star turn on the global stage. It’s the centerpiece of the country’s Victorious Fatherland Liberation DAVID M. War Museum, though tourism in North Korea, SHRIBMAN until now focused on the straw-thatched cottage where the country’s founder was born, is as fanciful a notion as the ideology of Kim Jong-un.

Unspoken is the torture endured by the men of the Pueblo. They thought they were going to be shot at dawn the day after they reached land. One remembered an interrogator clicking a gun at his head. Another never recovered from the frantic kicking he received.

“When we had fresh guards, they were apprehensive of us, but as they understood us better they became more brutal,” Donald R. Peppard, a former cryptologic technician, recalled in a telephone conversation last week.

“They were brutal because they could (be) — and this was an entire country that believes the United States is the most evil nation on Earth,” said Peppard, 76, who retired from the Navy in 1977 and now heads the Pueblo Veterans Association.

It is fitting that the crew of a ship captured around the time President Lyndon B. Johnson signed an order requiring all federal computers to support ASCII character encoding has its own website. In its very first paragraph the site points out that the United States has never retaliated for the seizure of the ship, a fact that “guarantees the Pueblo’s place in history as a watershed event in our nation’s conscience.”

That is true. The men of the Pueblo — one

•

died in the incident, far fewer than the 34 who perished on the USS Liberty, attacked by the Israelis seven months earlier — eventually were given medals as prisoners of war. That was only after they suffered 335 days of captivity and a daunting diet that consisted mostly of turnips. A band played “The Lonely Bull” and Gov. Ronald Reagan of California greeted the crew members when they returned.

So did a naval court of inquiry. In what columnist James Reston described at the time as “a medieval trial which exposed his agony and broke his spirit,” Bucher was charged with failing to resist the intruders, for allowing the North Koreans to search his ship, for insufficiently destroying classified information and with following his North Korean captors into port, among other departures from naval law and custom. Secretary of the Navy John H. Chafee, later a distinguished Republican senator from Rhode Island, dismissed the charges, noting that the crew had been abused and tortured.

“I am convinced,” Chafee said, “that neither individual discipline, nor the state of discipline or morale in the Navy, nor any other interest requires further legal proceedings with respect to any personnel involved in the Pueblo incident.”

Chafee, who died in 1999, believed the men of the Pueblo had suffered enough. Some are still suffering.

The 67 who remain alive would like to see the ship — the only commissioned Navy vehicle in captivity — back home, maybe in San Diego, maybe in Pueblo, Colo., the city and county for which the onetime light-cargo ship was named in 1944.

At the time, the Pueblo incident revived ancient debates about duty and responsibility, about the naval traditions that were tested and defied in this episode, about the burden of giving orders and the difficulty of carrying them out. Today, the Pueblo incident stirs ancient debates about war and remembrance.

Sadly, we know plenty about war, but not terribly much about remembrance.

San Diego mayor begins absence for therapy SAN DIEGO (AP) — Therapists say admitting one has a problem is the first step toward recovery.

For San Diego Mayor Bob Filner that could be tricky.

The first-term mayor and former congressman starts two weeks of intensive therapy Monday while facing a sexual harassment lawsuit and calls for his resignation amid a flurry of allegations that he groped women for years.

Even as he undergoes treatment, Filner is set to be grilled by lawyers under oath this week in a lawsuit brought by his former communications director that claims he asked her to work without panties, told her he wanted to see her naked and dragged her around in a headlock while whispering in her ear.

Neither Filner nor his office has released details about his therapy

or its location. Filner is picking up the tab for the treatment.

Filner’s accusers, his one-time supporters and voters have expressed skepticism that any two-week program is an appropriate remedy for what Filner himself has described as years of inappropriate behavior toward women. Longtime therapists also questioned how much progress could be made.

“It is pie-in-the-sky to think that in two weeks anyone could be a new man,” said Helen Friedman, a St. Louis psychologist who has treated compulsive sexual behavior for 30 years, though she said it was a good start.

Success will depend on how far the 70-year-old Filner goes in acknowledging his problems, experts said.

“Typically in the first few sessions you have to find someone you really trust,” said Lilli Friedland, a Beverly Hills psychologist who advises business executives on sexual harassment. “‘Can I open up with all my dirty laundry, and is this person expert enough?’ It takes a number of sessions and visits to establish that trust.”

Some voters wondered whether the therapy stint was simply an effort to buy time amid extraordinary pressure to resign.

“He needs to save face,” said Christina Imhoof, 72, who voted for Filner in November but then quit the Democratic Party over the allegations. She said she suspects Filner will return after the time-out and say his therapist has encouraged him to resign for medical reasons.

Filner announced his

plans on July 26 to enter a behavioral counseling clinic to “begin the process of addressing my behavior.” He called it the first step in a continuing program that would involve ongoing counseling.

“I must become a better person … I must demonstrate that my behavior has changed,” Filner said then, while offering apologies and an acknowledgement that his “failure to respect women, and the intimidating contact, is inexcusable.”

The mayor’s office did not respond to interview requests.

Nine women, including a university dean and a retired Navy rear admiral, have gone public in the past month with accusations that Filner cornered them and made unwanted sexual advances that SEE MAYOR, PAGE B7

Sikh temple attack ties victim’s son, ex-racist OAK CREEK, Wis. (AP) — Six weeks after a white supremacist gunned down Pardeep Kaleka’s father and five others at a Sikh temple last year, Kaleka was skeptical when a former skinhead reached out and invited him to dinner.

But Kaleka accepted, and he’s grateful he did.

Since then, the grieving son and repentant racist have formed an unlikely alliance, teaming up to preach a message of peace throughout Milwaukee. In fact, they’ve grown so close that they got matching tattoos on their palms — the numbers 8-5-12, the date the gunman opened fire at a Milwaukee-area Sikh temple before killing himself minutes later.

It wasn’t easy for Kaleka to meet Arno Michaelis, a 42-year-old who admits he contributed so heavily to the white-power movement that he might have helped influence the shooter.

Kaleka knows Michaelis’ history — his lead singing in a white supremacist band, the white-power and swastika tattoos, the countless fights and more than a dozen arrests.

But he also saw the good work Michaelis has done since he quit the racist movement in the mid-1990s. Kaleka, 37, wanted his father’s death to be a catalyst for peace, and he saw in Michaelis a partner whose story could reinforce the message that it’s possible to turn hate into love.

NEW YORK (AP) — Why doesn’t Anthony Weiner just quit?

It’s a question angry voters, pundits and fellow politicians have been asking almost nonstop in the nearly two weeks since the New York City mayoral candidate’s latest sexting bombshell, which has sent his poll numbers plummeting and turned his campaign into a chaotic sideshow.

Weiner insists he’s staying in the race no matter what. And experts say that beyond the former congressman’s well-known ego and combativeness, his stance may just be rooted in political calculation.

A leading theory: Weiner takes his hits on the campaign trail, gives the media a chance to ask every sexting question and essentially punch themselves out on the issue. And even if he loses, he emerges with the scandal mostly behind him and his political career refreshed to run for higher office again.

“All along, there has been a school of thought that Weiner was running in part to rehabilitate his image,” said Wendy Schiller, a Brown University political scientist. “That, even if he didn’t win, a strong showing would set him up for another run down the road.”

“Even now, he stays in the race, takes his lumps and shows some character,” Schiller said. “That might resonate with New Yorkers.

And if he does better than people think he should, that

helps for the future, too.”

With fewer than 40 days until the Democratic primary, Weiner has been doing his best to push past the horde of reporters and photographers and make his case directly to voters.

In recent days, he has been leaving events with more applause than when he entered.

When a man at a Bronx campaign stop last week questioned the viability of Weiner’s campaign, asking, “When do you say ‘Enough is enough?’” the candidate’s hoarse voice roared to life.

“If you become the mayor of the City of New York, you’ve got to put up with this every single day,” Weiner told the crowd. “People saying to you, ‘You know what, you did something we don’t like.’ Cameras in your face.

‘Change your mind, back down. Quit.’ That’s not the kind of mayor I’m going to be.”

The next night, Weiner traveled to a Queens neighborhood that was once part of his congressional district. A man asked how voters could ever trust him again.

“I’ve dishonored my wife, but sir, I didn’t do anything to you,” Weiner said. “If you think you’re a better person and a better candidate, why don’t you want to let me run? Let the citizens of this city decide.”

At yet another Queens event, there were boos from the crowd, but they were directed at longshot Republican candidate George McDonald for

calling Weiner “a self-pleasuring freak.”

“I’m facing some tough challenges now, and one thing all of my opponents agree upon is they’d rather I wasn’t running,” he said.

“Well, tough,” he said to applause from the audience.

Team Weiner seems to be embracing the confrontations. His campaign sent out an email to supporters titled “Getting an earful from a voter,” which included a video depicting the tough Bronx exchange.

Weiner is persevering through a stretch of relentless and brutal news coverage that began after he was forced to admit that he continued to trade illicit online messages with women even after he resigned from Congress in 2011 for similar behavior.

There have been mocking tabloid headlines and the spectacle of his 22-yearold online sexting partner telling her story on Howard Stern’s satellite radio show.

Weiner’s campaign manager quit and his spokeswoman was forced to apologize for cursing out an intern who wrote a tell-all article about the campaign.

Other factors may explain why Weiner insists on putting up with all this, not the least of which is money.

Because of city campaign finance laws, Weiner is eligible for $2.1 million in matching funds, money he would have lost if he did not run this year. He would also lose access to the matching funds if he quit now even if he decides to run again.

Condemned man hangs self three days before execution CLEVELAND (AP) — A man condemned to death for fatally stabbing a neighbor during a Cleveland burglary was found hanged in his cell Sunday just days before his Wednesday execution.

Billy Slagle, 44, was found at about 5 a.m. at the Chillicothe Correctional Institution south of Slagle Columbus and was declared dead within the hour, prison spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said.

“He was in his cell alone.

No other inmates suspected to be involved,” Smith said in an email. “It does appear to be a suicide.”

Under regular prison policy, he was scheduled to be placed under pre-execution watch Sunday morning but “was not yet placed under constant watch,” Smith said.

Slagle’s defense team was shocked and saddened at the news and had no clue he might commit suicide, attorney Vicki Werneke said.

“We were still litigating in court and had hoped that the execution would have been stopped. There was oral argument scheduled for Monday afternoon,” she told The Associated Press in an email.

An autopsy will be conducted Monday, according to Mike Ratliff, chief investigator for the Ross County coroner. He

said the case was under investigation and no initial findings could be provided.

Slagle was sentenced in 1988 to die for the stabbing of Mari Anne Pope, who was killed while two young children she was watching were in the house.

In a rare move, the prosecutor in Cleveland asked the Ohio Parole Board to spare Slagle. Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty said jurors today, with the option of life without parole, would be unlikely to sentence Slagle to death.

After that, I learned about additional lies she had told me throughout my childhood.

DEAR DOCTOR K: My father recently had an ischemic stroke. He was treated with tPA and has now fully recovered. What is tPA? And how does it work?

DEAR READER: The most common kind of stroke is called an ischemic (is-KEY-mic) stroke: an artery supplying the brain becomes blocked by a blood clot. The part of the brain supplied by the artery needs the nutrition provided by a constant supply of blood. When that supply is interrupted, brain cells can die, taking with them the ability to move, speak, feel or think.

When a stroke occurs, immediate treatment is crucial. The sooner treatment starts, the better the chance of limiting disability or brain damage — or preventing death.

As soon as doctors diagnose an ischemic

talk to my children.

My mother has never apologized for her actions to anyone and thinks we should just “get over it.”

Because so much has come out about her, I want to protect my children from being hurt by her DEAR the way I ABBY was.

I can’t tell her outright that I don’t Jeanne Phillips want much to do with her for fear it will send her into an “episode,” and I don’t want my kids caught in the crossfire. If I try to sugar-coat what needs to be said, she won’t get it. What should I do? — FRUSTRATED DAUGHTER

is best made by a skilled medical team headed by a stroke specialist.

If doctors rule out tPA, they will likely give an antithrombotic, or anticoagulant drug, such as heparin, to prevent more clots from forming.

When I was a young physician, there was very little we could do for people with ischemic strokes. We knew what the problem was — a clot had blocked a major artery in the brain — but we just had no way of dissolving it.

It took medical research to figure out how clots form and dissolve. Then the huge research breakthrough called recombinant DNA technology allowed us to make large amounts of natural substances like tPA. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.

B7

Zimbabwe churches urge peace after disputed poll HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwean church leaders urged Sunday worshippers to pray for peace after disputed elections gave longtime President Robert Mugabe a landslide victory in the presidential and parliamentary vote.

The Evangelical Fellowship of Zimbabwe asked its followers Sunday to wait for “dialogue to resolve outstanding issues with self-control and tolerance.”

In pastoral messages given

by priests, Roman Catholic churches, whose monitors criticized Wednesday’s voting for widespread irregularities, called on Catholics not to be “consumed by bitterness that leads to violence.”

“Peace in your heart brings calm. Trust and have faith,” said Fr. Charles Kanongwa, a church leader.

Preparing for possible disturbances, however, Zimbabwean police mounted extra roadblocks in the

capital Sunday, some manned unusually by officers with automatic rifles. Troops were camped downtown where water canon trucks were also stationed.

Mugabe took 62 percent of the presidential vote compared to opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai’s 34 percent, according to official results.

Tsvangirai rejected the vote as “a monumental fraud” and says he will challenge the results that also gave

MAYOR: True recovery requires lifetime of work FROM PAGE B5

authority, including the ability to sign contracts, to an interim chief operating officer, Walt Ekard, a former county administrator.

The mayor’s absence comes during a summer lull, with the City Council on August recess.

Nevertheless Filner’s Republican predecessor, Jerry Sanders, said his absence occurs when the mayor’s office normally “would get caught up, do a lot of policy work and make sure things got in order.”

Sanders, who now leads the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, believes the scandal is affecting day-to-day business. He said department directors are hesitant to make decisions, that money has not been released for the city’s tourism marketing district, and investors are reluctant to start projects.

included groping and slobbering kisses. At least five renewed their calls for Filner to resign after he pledged to begin therapy.

“It is highly doubtful that two weeks of therapy will correct for decades of reprehensible behavior,” said Laura Fink, who alleges that Filner patted her buttocks at a 2005 fundraiser when she was deputy campaign manager to the then-congressman.

One accuser, former Filner communications director Irene McCormack Jackson, has filed a harassment lawsuit against him. Her lawyer, Filner’s attorney and city lawyers will depose him Friday.

Filner, the city’s first Democratic leader in 20 years, will keep full powers while in therapy and said he would be briefed twice-daily on city business. Filner also has delegated significant

“We are hearing companies saying: ‘Why would we move to San Diego? With this going on the city is the absolute object of ridicule around the country,’” Sanders said.

Experts who spoke generally about treatment approaches and not specifically about Filner said patients being treated for addictive or compulsive sexual behavior typically get a medical examination to rule out chemical imbalances or other physical ailments.

Therapists would try to build trust so the patient is comfortable sharing personal information and try to determine if the person is in denial.

Once a problem is acknowledged, doctors try to identify what triggers the behavior so patients can develop a coping mechanism, build a support network and find other ways to control it. Long-term treatment may involve weekly group or individual therapy.

Mugabe’s party a two-thirds majority in the 210 seat parliament, enabling it to alter aspects of the country’s new constitution it opposed when the charter was being rewritten.

In the last elections in 2008, the opposition captured 111 seats to Mugabe’s 99.

Tsvangirai beat Mugabe in the first round of that presidential vote but boycotted a run-off to protest an onslaught of violence against his supporters.

“It is inconceivable Tsvangirai could now have lost by such margin. I am in a state of shock and disbelief,” said Elizabeth Joseph, an Anglican worshipper in a well-to-do Harare suburb.

“Our morning service has been more like a funeral.”

“A mountain has fallen on us and I don’t know how it can be moved,” said Caiphas Zimuto, a worshipper at a Harare Pentecostal church aligned to the Evangelical Fellowship, an umbrella

organization for scores of revivalist churches outside the mainstream Roman Catholic and Anglican groups.

Regional southern African monitors and observers from the continentwide African Union have demanded investigations into allegations of inflated voting

by Mugabe’s ZANU-PF party and the absence of an estimated 700,000 names of eligible voters from voters’ lists.

SIKH: Key is to magnify similarities, not differences FROM PAGE B5

do it.

Michaelis immediately asked about a bandage on Kaleka’s eye, the temporary remnant of a mishap Kaleka suffered while bathing his daughter.

“There was no, ‘Hi, how you doing?’ He went straight from seeing me to showing concern,” Kaleka said. After Kaleka told him what happened, Michaelis admitted that he too was a klutz, and a friendship was born.

Michaelis doesn’t shy away from discussing his past. He grew up in an alcoholic, emotionally cold household. He began to rebel as early as kindergarten, bullying other kids on the bus and picking fights on the playground.

He eventually got into the white-power movement for the shock value, but the more he associated with haters, the more he began

Toll Free 1-877-791-7877

to hate.

But hating was exhausting. He couldn’t watch Green Bay Packers games because black and white players were playing together. He couldn’t watch TV because Hollywood was a Jewish conspiracy.

He loved “Seinfeld” but he had to record it on a videotape labeled “Amber’s second birthday party” so his white-power friends wouldn’t know he thought a Jew was hilarious.

Eventually, the combination of his daughter’s birth and a friend dying in a street fight was the catalyst for him to move on.

His past never really left him, though. When he heard that the gunman who killed six people at a Sikh temple was a white supremacist, he lay awake that night agonizing that the gunman might have been someone he’d recruited into the white-power movement

Fax 260-347-7282

or inspired as the lead singer of the hate band Centurion.

It turns out he hadn’t known Page but he still felt responsible for his actions.

“We were both white-power skinheads. We were both in white-power bands,” Michaelis said. “In just about every sense, I used to be him.”

That’s why his message now is one of peace. He tells kids they’re not being tough when they counter aggression with aggression — what takes real strength is walking away. He acknowledges that his younger self would have ignored that message, but he still hopes to make a difference with a new generation.

Connecting with children became so much easier after he and Kaleka teamed up. When kids hear from someone who used to be a violent hater, and then from someone whose father fell victim to that very hatred, the message is sobering.
