Sophie Picking, 4, spent part of the sunny Sunday afternoon at the Howelsen Park playground with her mother, Lynn, and the rest of the family. The temperature Sunday rose to about 70 degrees. According to the Weather Underground forecasting service, the average temperature for Oct. 18 is 56 degrees, and the record is 75, set in 1958.

Lynne Meyers is excited to wait in line Saturday. Just like a long gondola line on a powder day, the free health screenings at Yampa Valley Medical Center’s annual Community Health Fair are worth the wait to Meyers, who has lived in Steamboat Springs for 23 years. “All of your health needs for the year can be checked off in one morning,” she said. “It’s a great opportunity to take responsibility for your health and find out what you’ve wanted to find out for free.” Those who know Meyers know she stays very active as a tennis coach, skier and hockey player.

They also know that like many other local residents, she is proactive about her health. She was one of more than 400 who attended last year’s Community Health Fair at YVMC. This year’s event will be extended by an hour, with an extra half-hour at the beginning and the end of the event, an idea suggested by attendees at last year’s event.

since 2008, but no sales occurred during the second and third quarters of 2009. Peddie said Sunday’s auction was an effort to reach prospective buyers. “Our hope was that if we offered a really good value that we’d get people out who were otherwise on the fence,” Peddie said. Steamboat Springs resident Gary Waneka and his wife, Nanette, placed high bids on three adjoining lots, at $25,000 each. Gary Waneka called the price “extremely good” and said that he and his wife weren’t yet sure of their plans for the sites should the sales be finalized.

Dale Kruse, who lives south of Hayden, also placed a high bid of $25,000 on a Dry Creek Village lot. “I’m a builder, and I’m hoping to put a house on there and sell it at a really good price to somebody,” said Kruse, of Kruse Builders. But those bids might not hold up. Woods and Peddie have until Tuesday to notify prospective buyers whether their high bid was accepted or rejected. Closings will take place within 25 days after the auction. Peddie said Sunday’s event, auc-

A Sunday land auction in Hayden featured few buyers, low bids and decreasing prices that attendees and property sellers alike attributed to the recessionary value of real estate in Routt County. Forty-three lots at the Dry Creek Village residential subdivision were up for grabs at the Hayden Community Center, but after about two hours of auctioneering, just 12 of the lots were spoken for, most at a price of about $25,000. The day’s highest bid was $43,000 for two lots at the subdivision, which is just south of U.S. Highway 40 between downtown Hayden and Yampa Valley Regional Airport. “I would say the numbers are an unfortunate reflection of where Routt County land is now,” said Jim Woods, a partner in the subdivision with Jon Peddie. Peddie has said he and Woods have about $70,000 invested in each of the 54 lots of the subdivision’s Phase 1. The lots average 7,000 square feet in size and feature infrastructure accepted by the town of Hayden including water, sewer and paved roads. Sales on 11 of those lots have closed

Speaker provides career advice Shari Harley encourages people to be honest, seek feedback Blythe Terrell

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

Steamboat Springs

Shari Harley was impressed with her audience Saturday at the Steamboat Springs Com munity Center. About 25 people showed up at 9:30 a.m. on a beautiful day to listen to her speak for three hours. They were all there, awake and somewhat alert, so Harley could teach them how not to screw up their careers. The Young Professionals Network organized the work shop, “Managing Your Repu tation: What They Say When You’re Not There.” Harley, a consultant in professional devel opment and career management in Denver, kept things lively with frequent asides and jokes. But her message was serious. Harley focused on several key pieces of advice:

2n d An n u a l Loyal Lo c als FREE giveaway contest.

■ You drive your career — no one else. ■ Ask more and assume less. Questions are powerful. ■ Dress for the job you want, not the one you have. ■ Hang out with people who have what you want. ■ If you want something, ask for it. ■ Assume that what you say goes everywhere. ■ Never write anything in an e-mail you wouldn’t say aloud. The last tip is particularly important in a small town, she noted. It’s human nature to gossip, but it can kill a career. Harley shared a story about a time when she gained a reputation as chatty at work. Her boss told her she was seen as a gossip — and therefore someone who couldn’t be trusted with highlevel information. It’s difficult to move up in a career if you’re perceived that way. Harley encouraged people to eliminate, or at least cut back on, talking about other people when they aren’t there. She calls herself “the queen

of candor,” by the way. She told the audience mem bers to think carefully about what they want in a position. “The key is to know, but the other thing is to be disciplined,” Harley said. “You have to have the courage to say no.” Harley also encouraged people to honestly seek infor mation. Professionals should ask for specific feedback and promise the giver that they’ll say “thank you” no matter what the feedback is. That way, the per son will trust you and be honest about your performance. Information is power, Harley said: You can’t fix a problem you don’t know about. “Here’s my intention … that you get more power and control over every relationship in your life than you have now,” Harley said.

uite often by the time the kids go begging for treats in downtown Steamboat Springs on Halloween, we’ve experienced some snowfall and certainly much cooler weather. So before winter kicks in and you lose the opportunity to give your lawn a head start on next spring’s growth, take time to care for your lawn this fall. If you have fallen leaves covering your lawn, it’s best to remove them before they become soggy and smother your grass. Raking them up or shredding them with the lawn mower are good ways to keep air and water flowing freely in your lawn. Speaking of mowing, you may continue to cut the grass until it stops growing. The last cut of the year should be slightly shorter than your nor mal cut to eliminate the pos sibility of snow mold and dead growth caused by long blades of grass bent by heavy snows. Then, once you’ve made your last cut, be sure to drain the gas from your mower and clean it up before storing it until spring. And, don’t forget to blow out your sprinkler system so it doesn’t freeze and break during the winter. For cool season grasses, which is what most of us in our Zone 4 mountains grow, fall is a great time to apply fertilizer containing nitrogen as well as

gardening with

Deb Babcock phosphorus (the N and the P in NPK percentages listed on fertilizer labels). Apply fertil izer after the grass is dormant. Keeping grass lush green into later fall months increases the chances of getting snow mold. The nitrogen helps with top growth, which occurs again in the cooler weather after a hot summer, and the phosphorus is great for helping the root system withstand a cold winter. Phosphorus also aids the grass in winter storage of nutrients, spring root growth and reduces spring disease problems. Fall is also a good time to apply herbicides should your lawn be littered with peren nial weeds. Note the type of weed cropping up in your lawn: broadleaf, perennial weedy grasses or annual weedy grasses. Then use the appropri ate herbicide for that type of weed, or simply get out your digger tool and start pulling out the roots of these lawn interlopers. For fall herbicide application, make sure the perennial weed still is green and growing, usually through See Babcock, page 6

Searching for firefighters South Routt Fire Protection District seeks volunteer responders Oak Creek

When the page for help goes out across the South Routt Fire Protection District, about 16 volunteers are ready to answer the call as firefighters, paramedics or both. Although the team is well prepared, Chief Chuck Wisecup said, he would like to have closer to 30 volunteers ready to respond across the district’s 260 square miles. To bolster the numbers, Wisecup and the rest of the crew are preparing for a recruitment drive, with a firefighting academy to train new members scheduled for later this winter or early in spring 2010. Wisecup said it’s important to have a healthy list of volunteers because not every volunteer can respond to every call.

“The national average is you get one volunteer to respond for every three on the roster,” he said. Last year, the department had 226 calls for service, but Wisecup said that year was exceptional. He expects the department to have 175 to 180 calls this year, figures comparable to numbers from about three years ago. He said the economy might be to blame, as there were fewer calls from vacationers in state parks this year. The department typically runs about 20 calls per month, he said, with a record number of 32 in January. The department covers Oak Creek, Stagecoach and the surrounding area from three fire stations. Two are based in Oak Creek, and one is in Stagecoach. Stagecoach resident Jenny Switzky said she started volun-

teering in 2007, working through firefighting and emergency medical technician training. “I wanted to help out my community, and I’ve always been interested in being a firefighter,” she said. The fire protection district paid for Switzky to go through training to earn her firefighter 1 and EMT basic certifications, she said. Switzky said that most of the calls for service are medical calls.

the month of September. Another maintenance item for a healthy lawn is to eliminate compacted soil by core-aeration at least once a year. Aeration allows oxygen and water to penetrate to the roots. It’s best to aerate in the fall once the weather begins to cool. However, aerate only if the ground has moisture so that the aerator actually penetrates the soil. Finally, if you’re noting some bare spots in your lawn, throw some seed down, water it

to give the new seed an opportunity to begin sprouting, and then cover with mulch, straw or grass clippings for a protective blanket through the winter. Wait until late October to seed so it has no chance of germinating until next spring. Take care of your lawn this fall, so your springtime work will be minimized.

Commentary

Do you have something to say about a story we’ve written?

The power in 11/9 Thomas L. Friedman The New York Times

BERLIN

A few weeks ago, Americans “observed” the eighth anniversary of 9/11 — that day in 2001 when the Twin Towers were brought down by al-Qaida. In a few weeks, Germans will “celebrate” the 20th anniversary of 11/9 — that day in 1989 when the Berlin Wall was brought down by one of the greatest manifestations of people power ever seen. As the Obama team Friedman tries to figure out how to proceed vis-a-vis Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran, it is worth reflecting for a moment on why Germans are celebrating 11/9 and we are reliving 9/11 — basically debating whether to re-invade Afghanistan to prevent it again from becoming an al-

Qaida haven and to prevent Pakistan from tipping into civil war. The most important difference between 11/9 and 9/11 is “people power.” Germans showed the world how good ideas about expanding human freedom — amplified by people power — can bring down a wall and an entire autocratic power structure, without a shot. There is now a Dunkin’ Donuts on Paris Square adjacent to the Brandenburg Gate, where all that people power was concentrated. Usually, I am horrified by American fast-food brands near iconic sites, but in the case of this once open sore between East and West, I find it something of a balm. The war over Europe is indeed over. People power won. We can stand down — pass the donuts. The events of 9/11, by contrast, demonstrated how bad ideas — amplified by a willingness of just a few people to commit suicide — can bring down skyscrapers and tie a great country in knots.

I toured Paris Square the other day with Ulrike Graalfs, a program director at the American Academy in Berlin, where I am a visitor, and she mentioned in passing that she was in America on 9/11, as a student at the University of Pennsylvania, and she was a 9-year-old schoolgirl standing on the Berlin Wall on 11/9. I was struck by her recollections. On 9/11, she said, she was overwhelmed by the sense of “anger and hurt” that so many of the Penn students around her felt — feelings so intense it made it impossible for them to see, what she, a foreign student could see, “how much the rest of the world was standing with America that day.” By contrast, on 11/9, “there were people singing and dancing and someone lifted me up on the wall,” she said. “I still get emotional thinking about it. I saw my father jump down on the other side. I was terrified. See Friedman, page 9

Regime is Iran’s disease; nukes are just a symptom Jonah Goldberg

Tribune Media Services

The Nobel Peace Prize has renewed prestige in my book. No, not because Barack Obama won it for accomplishments to be determined later. It’s got new luster because Shirin Ebadi has, at great personal risk, effectively come out for regime change in her native Iran. Ebadi, who won the Peace Prize six years ago (under the old rules whereby recipients were expected to do something Goldberg to earn the prize before receiving it), is Iran’s premier human rights lawyer. In an interview with the editors of the Washington Post, Ebadi “suggested that the nature of Iran’s regime is more crucial to U.S. security than any specific deals on nuclear energy.”

Mallard Fillmore

Her point is precisely the same point made by so-called neoconservatives for years. The problem with Iran is its regime; its nuclear program is merely a symptom of that problem. Do you lay awake at night worrying about Britain’s nuclear weapons? France’s? Israel’s? Of course not, because stable democracies in general, and stable democratic allies in particular, aren’t a threat. If your neighbor is an upright and responsible citizen, who cares if he has a gun? If your neighbor is a complete whackjob and criminal, you sure as Shinola care if he has a gun. Armed neighbors aren’t a problem, dangerous ones are. The same logic applies to nations. “Imagine if the government actually promised to stop its nuclear program tomorrow,” Ebadi told the Post. “Would you trust this government not to start another secret nuclear program some-

where else?” It’s a profound and fundamental point. We’ve gotten many such promises from the North Koreans. They are worthless. Promises from oppressive regimes cannot be trusted any more than promises from Tony Soprano could be. If a government is willing to betray its own people on a daily basis, what makes anyone think that it won’t betray its geopolitical adversaries? A democratic Iran, Ebadi says, would be unlikely to pursue a nuclear program. The Iranian people fear sanctions more than the country’s corrupt, economically insulated rulers do. Moreover, the Iranian regime needs nukes for its own survival. The Iranian people may like the prestige of being a member of the nuclear club, but they aren’t eager to pay any price to join. More important, the Iranian people aren’t interested in See Goldberg, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

Friedman continued from 8 It was very high. I thought it was going to be the end of my father. He started debating with an East German soldier. But the soldier didn’t do anything. He just stood there, stiff.” People power won, and Germany has been united and stable ever since. The problem we have in dealing with the Arab-Muslim world today is the general absence or weakness of people power there. There is a lowgrade civil war going on inside the Arab-Muslim world today, only in too many cases it is “the South versus the South” — bad ideas versus bad ideas, amplified by violence, rather than bad ideas versus good ideas amplified by people power. In places such as Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Afghani stan or Pakistan you have violent religious extremist movements fighting with state security services. And although the regimes in these countries

are committed to crushing their extremists, they rarely take on their extremist ideas by offering progressive alternatives. That’s largely because the puritanical Islamic ideology of the Saudi state or segments of the Pakistani military is not all that different from the ideology of the extremists. And when these extremists aim elsewhere — such as at India or at Shiites or at Israelis — these regimes are indifferent. That is why there is no true war of ideas inside these countries — just a war. These states are not promoting an inclusive, progressive and tolerant interpretation of Islam that could be the foundation of people power. And when their people do take to the streets, it is usually against another people rather than to unify their own ranks around good ideas. There have been far more marches to denounce Danish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad than to denounce Muslim suicide bombers who have killed inno-

cent civilians, many of them Muslims. The most promising progressive people-power movements have been Lebanon’s Cedar Revolution, the Sunni Awakening in Iraq and the Green Revolution in Iran. But the Cedar Revolution has been stymied by Syrian might and internal divisions. The Tehran uprising has been crushed by the iron fist of the Iranian regime, fueled by petro-dollars. And it is unclear whether the Iraqis will set aside their tribalism for a shared people power. So as we try to figure out how many troops to send to stabilize Afghanistan and Pakistan, let’s remember: Where there is people power wedded to progressive ideas, there is hope — and American power can help. Where there is people power harnessed to bad ideas, there is danger. Where there is no people power and only bad ideas, there will be no happy endings.

Obama might get the chance for a do-over Goldberg continued from 8 preserving the current regime, as has been demonstrated by the historic protests this summer. But even if Iran did go nuclear, who really cares as long as the nutty, messianic, totalitarian leadership is gone? A stable, democratic regime concerned with economic growth and normalcy might not be perfect, but which sort of government would you rather see in charge of nuclear weapons? Democracy is not necessarily a cure-all. Palestinians in Gaza held elections and swept Hamas to power. But the Iranians aren’t Gazans. And while America is despised by most nations in the region, the U.S. actually is popular with the Iranian people. Ebadi doesn’t want America

to topple the Iranian regime the way it toppled Saddam Hussein’s. Or, if she does, she’s certainly smart enough not to say so outright, given that her family is under constant surveillance by Iranian authorities. What she wants is for America to get its priorities straight. Iran, which has been sponsoring terrorism for 30 years, is a threat because the Iranian regime is a threat. Change the regime and the threat diminishes or vanishes instantaneously. We had a golden opportunity to accelerate regime change in June, but Obama blinked. Enamored with the idea that “engagement” with evil will produce good, and convinced that a brutal, undemocratic regime is the legitimate representative of the Iranian people, Obama was slow to recognize the moral authority of the democracy movement. By the time he did

say what he should have said at the outset, it was clear that his grudging and qualified support for the protestors had no steel to it. The Iranian regime recognized that it would have a free hand to murder and intimidate its own people in order to reconsolidate power after it stole the election. This was a sad moment for the leader of the free world. “Mr. Obama has extended the hand of friendship to a man who has blood on his hands,” Ebadi told the Post. “He can at least avoid shaking the hand of friendship with him.” There are rumors — unconfirmed at this point — that the Supreme Leader of Iran, the Ayatollah Khamenei, is either dead or in a coma. If true, the resulting power vacuum might give Obama the chance for a do-over. That is, if he’s interested in earning a peace prize, not just winning one.

Local programs help pay for mammograms, treatment costs Tamera Manzanares

For the Steamboat Today

Most of us are guilty of putting off important health screenings or procedures. Often, that resistance has more to do with cost than laziness. For example, mammograms — X-rays of the breast used to detect breast cancer — typically cost between $200 and $300. In the big picture, that’s not a lot of money to pay for the chance to catch any cancer early so that a woman has a better chance of living a long and healthy life. Yet, particularly in the current economic climate, $200 to $300 is more than many women can pay, even for a life-saving tool. It’s important these women know there are local programs available to help them pay for breast cancer and other important screenings and even costs related to breast cancer treatment.

Resources The Women’s Wellness Connection provides eligible, low-income women age 40 to 64 with free annual Pap tests, pelvic exams and clinical breast exams. Free mammograms also are available if these women are at high risk for or have symptoms of breast cancer or are between the ages of 50 to 64. The Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association is a local provider of the state program, which is funded by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and administered by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Women in Routt and Moffat counties who don’t qualify for the Women’s Wellness Connection can turn to the

Yampa Valley Breast Cancer Awareness Project. In its ninth year, the project uses money from fundraisers such as the upcoming Bust of Steamboat to pay for mammograms, Pap tests and blood tests. The program also helps with costs related to breast cancer treatment, as well as groceries and essentials that women may not be able to pay for if they can’t work. Requests for help have increased dramatically in the past 15 months, said Jan Fritz, one of eight women coordinating the Yampa Valley Breast Cancer Awareness Project. “What we’re finding is more women are underinsured and uninsured, and that’s what we are trying to fill in,” said Fritz, who also directs cancer services at Yampa Valley Medical Center. In the past year, the project paid for 100 mammograms and ultrasounds — double the number from the previous year — and gave $20,000 to patients for treatment-related travel, medication, wigs and massages. “We don’t ask a lot of questions about what resources they have,” she said. “It’s just a phone interview about their situation.”

Risk and screening Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women behind skin cancer.

A woman’s chance of developing the disease is determined by various clues or risk factors. Having one or two risk factors doesn’t mean a woman will get breast cancer, but understanding her risk profile will help her and her doctor plan steps that may reduce her chances of getting the disease or detecting it early, when it is most easily treatable. The most common risk factors are being a woman, as less than 1 percent of cases occur in men; advancing in age; having a history of breast cancer, which can return; a history of non-cancer breast disease, which can predispose a person to cancer; or having a mother, sister, daughter or two or more close relatives with the disease. Scientists also have identified “breast cancer genes.” One out of two women with a rare mutation of these genes is likely to develop the disease. Women with a family history of breast cancer may consider speaking with their doctor or a genetics counselor about the pros and cons of genetic testing. Some risk factors involve estrogen, which does not cause breast cancer but may encourage the growth of cancer cells. When a woman began menstruating, her age during her first pregnancy, whether or not she had children and any use of hormone replacement therapy may influence her breast cancer risk. Lifestyle choices such as eating healthy, exercising regularly, not smoking and limiting alcohol intake may help prevent breast cancer or other cancers that could spread to the breast as well as other

chronic conditions. The American Cancer Society emphasizes that the combined use of multiple tools — regular mammograms, MRI for women at high risk, clinical breast exams and finding and reporting breast changes — offer women the best chances for detecting breast cancer early. Beginning in her 20s, a woman should conduct regular breast self-exams so she knows how her breasts typically look and can quickly notice any changes such as a lump or swelling, skin irritation or dimpling, nipple pain or retraction, redness or scaliness or discharge other than breast milk. Women in their 20s and 30s also should have a clinical breast exam as part of a regular wellness check at least every three years. Beginning at the age of 40, women should have clinical breast exams and mammograms annually, according to the American Cancer Society. Although mammograms are not 100 percent accurate and a small percentage of cancers are missed, mammograms are the best available tools for detecting the disease early. The Cancer Society recommends women who are at high risk for breast cancer get an annual mammogram starting at the age of 30. In addition, they also should consider getting an MRI, which stands for magnetic resonance imaging. MRIs are more thorough than mammograms though they also detect more suspicious growths that end up being benign. MRIs also are much more expensive than mammograms. MRI should only be used in

Mammogram resources The Women’s Wellness Connection provides eligible women, ages 40 to 64, with free annual clinical breast exams and Pap tests/pelvic exams. Mammograms also are provided if the patient is at high risk for or shows symptoms of cancer, or is 50 to 64. For more information, call the VNA at 879-1632 in Steamboat or 824-8233 in Craig. To find out if you qualify for the free tests, visit www.womenswellnessconnection.org. The Yampa Valley Breast Cancer Awareness Project pays for mammograms and helps pay for costs related to cancer treatment (not surgery) for women who may not qualify for other programs.

Auction nets $21K for Pike Money will be used to help pay MCHS grad’s medical bills Craig Daily Press

Craig

J.J. Pike was sitting in the hospital room of her son, Cory, in Denver while the warm, late summer weather enticed her from the window. “I feel like I haven’t seen the sun since June 9,” she said. “I’ve got to get outside.” “Take me, take me,” replied 20-year-old Cory. For a family that does everything outside, Cory’s June diagnosis of Burkitt’s lymphoma has turned the Pikes’ world upside down. Dave Pike, director of Craig Parks and Recreation, sometimes only sees his wife when he passes her on the highway, when they switch locations so one can be by their son’s side at all times. An auction Saturday at the OP Bar & Grill raised money for the Pikes’ unexpected expenses,

such as gas and an apartment in Denver. Longtime friends of the Pikes put on the auction, and businesses, individuals and organizations around Craig and Steamboat Springs donated the more than 300 items. Becky Otis, who organized the auction, said it raised $21,269. “I am so proud of this town,” Otis said. “Dave and J.J. were so shocked.” J.J. said she was surprised and humbled by the people who made the auction possible and those who turned out in support of her family. “There’s coach Haddan,” she said, watching Moffat County High School teacher John Haddan take a seat at the start of the auction. “He was one of Cory’s first football coaches. Cory just loved him as a coach.” Also in attendance were J.J.’s co-workers from City Market in

Peddie said in addition to the 12 deals Sunday, as many as six potential buyers expressed interest in a Dry Creek Village lot. “I think we can work with some of our bidders,” Peddie said. “I don’t think we can accept some of the low numbers.” Woods said interested buyers can contact him at 719-510-

8778 or visit www.drycreekvillage.com. Former Routt County assessor Amy Williams, now with Colorado Group Realty’s Hayden office, was on hand Sunday and acknowledged that the bids were “pretty low.” Colorado Group was the listing agent for Dry Creek Village before Sunday’s auction. “It’s a tough market,” Williams said about Sunday’s bids. “Nothing would have surprised me.” — To reach Mike Lawrence, call 871-4233 or e-mail mlawrence@steamboatpilot.com

Group will keep advertising Firefighters continued from 5 “There are enough (volunteers) for the call volume that we have, but if we have increased call volume we’ll need more volunteers,” she said. Wisecup said there is also a paid staff of three people, and the emergency responders who agree to be on call on the weekends are paid a small amount for their time — about $60 to cover an eight-hour shift. Volunteers who have worked on the force for 10 years or more also may be paid a stipend of $35 per call. Wisecup said the typical volunteer will work for three to five years before retiring from the force, and it’s difficult to retain volunteers for longer because of the time commitment it requires. “What we see is you get a

young guy who joins up fresh out of school and he’s real gung-ho, and after a while he gets a girlfriend and the attendance drops off a little bit, and then he gets married and the attendance drops off a little bit more, and he has a baby and it drops off a little bit more and he can’t make attendance requirements,” he said. Volunteers are required to go to training and meetings each month to retain certification and to stay on the force. The fire protection district will continue advertising for volunteers in the coming month with fliers they have posted around Oak Creek, and a letter in the town’s newsletter that is sent out with the gas bills. —To reach Zach Fridell, call 871-4208 or e-mail zfridell@steamboatpilot.com

Steamboat Springs, who have helped the Pikes by walking and feeding their two dogs at their house. Cory’s dog, Brandy, is one thing he will look forward to having back when he can leave the hospital. “He loves Brandy and misses her so much,” J.J. said. Brandy has received a series of shots and tests so that when Cory is ready, Brandy can visit him in the hospital. Until then, he has photographs of her in his room to hold him over. He also has plenty of movies and an Xbox, J.J. said, but lately he has been too sick to enjoy them. On Sept. 12, he received a bone marrow transplant of umbilical cord stem cells. A recent test found Cory to be cancer free, but he still is struggling with accepting the new cells.

Elected officials, lobbyists, and political candidates and campaigns owe the secretary of state’s office more than $500,000 in fines, mostly for failing to properly file paperwork disclosing their donors, according to a news report. Campaigns are fined $50 a day, and lobbyists pay $10 daily for late filings. The paperwork is required to be filed by Amendment 27, passed by state voters in 2002. Among those owing money are the Conservative Caucus of Delta County, with $67,900 in fines, The Denver Post reported in Sunday editions. State Rep. Jack Pommer filed his January paperwork in July. The Democrat from Boulder paid $15,000 in accumulated fines and then paid the remaining $9,120 after the Post contacted him last week. “There is a cost to being stupid,” Pommer said. “I could appeal, but I don’t know what I would say.” Build the Future Education, a small donor committee financed by a carpenters union, owed $66,894. That’s a little more than half of what it originally owed until the secretary of state’s office waived $57,175. The Colorado League of Taxpayers owes $7,150.

The story that a little boy had floated away in a giant helium balloon was a hoax concocted to land a reality television show, authorities said Sunday, and the boy’s parents likely will face felony charges. The stunt two weeks in the planning was a marketing ploy by Richard and Mayumi Heene, who met in acting school in Hollywood and have appeared on the ABC reality show “Wife Swap,” Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden said. The Heenes reportedly have been working on a reality TV deal in Los Angeles. Investigators are examining the possibility of other conspirators, “including the possibility that even some of the media outlets may have had some knowledge about this,” Alderden said. Documents show that a media outlet has agreed to pay money to the Heenes with regards to the balloon incident, Alderden said. He didn’t name the media outlet but said that it was a show that blurs “the line between entertainment and news.” It wasn’t clear whether the deal was signed before or after the alleged hoax, or whether that media outlet was a possible conspirator. Alderden did not name an outlet or provide any details. “Let’s call it (my statement) short of speculation that a media outlet was in on the hoax, but let’s not discount the possibility,” he said. Six-year-old Falcon Heene may not have even been hiding in the rafters of the family’s garage during the intense fivehour search for him Thursday, Alderden said.

White House doubts Afghan reliability Obama says he won’t commit to more US troops until government can be trusted charges of ballot-stuffing and voter coercion. An election fraud investiga tion could lead to a runoff elec tion between President Hamid Karzai and his top challeng er, former Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah. A second round of balloting would have to be held before winter, which traditionally begins in mid-November. Once heavy snows block mountain passes, thereby limiting voter access to polling places, a runoff would have to wait until spring, leaving the country in political limbo for months as the Taliban gains strength. Adding to the uncertainty is the prospect of Karzai’s not accepting an outcome requiring a runoff. “For the moment, we are worried ... because it seems that not everybody is ready to accept the results,” French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner told reporters Sunday in Kabul, the Afghan capital. “They must accept the results.” The weakness of the Afghan government has undermined the

WASHINGTON

President Barack Obama will not commit more U.S. troops to Afghanistan until he is con vinced that the central govern ment can be a credible and effec tive U.S. partner, a senior White House aide said Sunday. But it was unclear whether Obama intends to accept the re commendation by the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, for thousands more American troops and other resources in the 8-year-struggle to stabilize Afghanistan. The central question before Obama, chief of staff Rahm Emanuel said, is “not how much troops you have, but whether in fact there’s an Afghan partner.” The issue of developing an effective Afghan central gov ernment has dogged the U.S. mission virtually from the war’s start after the attacks against the U.S. on Sept. 11, 2001. It gained new urgency after an Aug. 20 presidential election marred by

Gates seeks allies’ help with Afghanistan war WASHINGTON

The Pentagon’s chief is undertaking the tricky task of trying to persuade allies to remain committed to the war in Afghanistan even as the Obama administration debates whether to send more troops to fight. Defense Secretary Robert Gates is undecided — at least publicly — on whether to order more forces to fight the Taliban in Afghanistan, as his top commander there has requested, or to focus more narrowly on al-Qaida terrorists thought to be hiding in Pakistan. Gates departed Sunday on a weeklong mission to Japan, Korea and Slovakia — in part to ask NATO partners and Asian allies for continued contributions to a war now in its ninth year. Perhaps mindful of asking others for help amid the U.S. indecision, Gates isn’t only seeking military aid. “A lot of the very valuable contributions in Afghanistan are on the development and the training, with the police and other aspects of civil life,” a senior defense official at the Pentagon said last week on condition of anonymity to discuss Gates’ travels more candidly. — The Associated Press

U.S. and NATO military mis sion in several respects. It has created disillusionment among ordinary Afghans who then turn to the Taliban mili tants for security and other ser vices. That has been an impor tant factor in the Taliban’s resurgence during the past four years. In Sunday talk show inter views, Emanuel did not answer directly when asked wheth er Obama would wait for a final election outcome before deciding U.S. troop levels in Afghanistan. He repeatedly underlined doubts about the Kabul government as a reliable partner for the U.S. “There’s not a security force, an army, the type of services that are important for the Afghans to become true partners,” Emanuel said. “It would be reckless to make a decision on U.S. troop level if, in fact, you haven’t done a thorough analysis of whether, in fact, there’s an Afghan part ner ready to fill that space that the U.S. troops would create and become a true partner in governing.”

The federal government is facing a lawsuit concerning billions in unclaimed bonds that date back to the patriotic fundraising efforts of World War II, leading to a showdown between states who say they should be given the money and a Treasury Department that claims ownership. World War II sparked an unprecedented bond buying campaign, spurred on by one of the largest advertising campaigns ever seen — a drive wrapped in dutiful pleas from celebrities, politicians and cartoon characters alike. Most American families bought at least one bond at the time and many never cashed them in — thanks in part to a 40-year maturity in the bonds. And those same “Series E” war bonds continued to be sold by the federal government until 1980. More than $16 billion worth of the bonds are unclaimed, either lost or forgotten about with the death of the original purchasers. The state attorneys general suing the Treasury Department charge that the federal government made no effort to find those people. They want the

money given to the states, who have a legal system in place for finding the owners of unclaimed funds. “It’s better for the millions of American who are the rightful owners to have it returned to the states, because the states will make a real effort to find them,” said David Bishop, a partner at Kirby McInerney who is representing the states in the suit. “And if after searching for them they can’t find them, the money can go to work in the communities where the bonds were purchased.” The Treasury Department counters that it indeed tries to find owners of the unclaimed bonds, and says it has a Web site where people cam simply type in their Social Security number to see if they have one. And it points out that the money is not just laying around somewhere. “One of the misunderstandings out there is that there is a lot of cash sitting somewhere in a drawer. Money from savings bonds was used to run the daily operating expenses of the government,” said Joyce Harris, with the Bureau of the Public Debt. “These are obligations of the federal government, not the states. There is no pot of gold out there just waiting for someone to grab it.”

The Treasury also points out that most of the unclaimed bonds are far more recent than the original World War II era bonds. And overall, 99 percent of people claim their bonds. And those who don’t cash them often choose to do so for tax reasons, or perhaps out of a sense of patriotism, Harris said. “Quite frankly, people are aware of the bonds,” she said. “A majority, when you contact them, are aware of the bonds.” It’s not like the states will get the money free of obligation, about $55 million in the case of Montana. The states would be obligated to pay bondholders no matter if it takes them decades — or longer — to show up. In the meantime, though, states usually earmark the interest earned on such unclaimed money for schools or other purposes. Steve Bullock, the attorney general for Montana, said states — not the federal government — have legally been granted the right to deal with unclaimed money. “First and foremost I think it is the right thing to do. I think it is money that should be with Montanans,” Bullock said. “It’s an important action to bring just to protect the state’s interest.”

A clump of hair thought to have been trimmed from Elvis Presley’s head when he joined the Army in 1958 has sold for $15,000 at a Chicago auction house. Also among the 200 Elvis-

related items up for grabs at the Leslie Hindman Auctioneers in Chicago on Sunday was a shirt that once belonged to the King which sold for $52,000. The buyer of the hair paid $15,000 plus an additional $3,300 in auction house fees. Other items on offer included scarves, photos from the recep-

tion of Presley’s 1967 wedding to Priscilla, Christmas cards he sent and lots of records. Elvis dolls and Elvis Pez dispensers numbered among the memorabilia. All the items had belonged to the late Gary Pepper, who ran a fan club and was a friend. Pepper, who had cerebral palsy, died in 1980.

Bolts try to keep up with Broncos

LA can’t figure out Lee in 11-0 shutout

SAN DIEGO

The San Diego Chargers don’t want to call their showdown with the Denver Broncos a must-win game. The certainly know it’s a can’t-lose game. The Chargers were built up in preseason as a Super Bowl favorite, capable of wrapping up their fourth straight AFC West title by Thanksgiving. Denver certainly hasn’t been cooperating with that scenario, jumping to the division lead at 5-0 while watching the Chargers stumble to a 2-2 start. An intense rivalry is re newed tonight at Qualcomm Stadium. If the Broncos win, and don’t collapse the way they did at the end of last season, it could be hard for the Chargers to catch them. So, no matter what the Chargers say, it’s a must-win game. “I don’t know that you can ever approach a game any other way,” quarterback Philip Rivers said. “Certainly the implications of this game are always big. Throw in the fact that we’re already two down, sure, I mean, it’s as big as a regular-season game gets.” This is the first of three straight division game for the Bolts, who are coming off a bye that helped soothe the physical and mental pain of once again getting exposed physically by the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers. San Diego fell behind, 28-0, and allowed 497 yards in a 38-28 loss at Pittsburgh. The Chargers haven’t been able to run the ball or stop the run. “I think mentally we understand what effect a win’s going to have and at the same time See Broncos, page 22

record for one period. The six touchdown throws tied Brady’s own Patriots record. And the 59-point margin matched the largest since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, the Los Angeles Rams’ 59-0 win against the Atlanta Falcons in 1976. The Patriots (4-2) gained a club-record 619 yards with Brady completing 29 of 34 passes for 380 yards. The Titans (0-6) took their worst loss since they began play in 1960 as the Houston Oilers, eclipsing the 61-7 setback to Cincinnati in 1989. They won their first 10 games last season.

Cliff Lee sprinted off the mound after throwing his final pitch, nearly breaking a sweat for the first time. Heck, he almost outhustled the Phillies’ newest speed demon, Ryan Howard. With their ace and slugger leading the way, the defending World Series champions got back their swagger. Lee dominated the Dodgers, Howard and Jayson Werth provided the big swings early and Philadelphia cruised past Los Angeles, 11-0, on Sunday night for a 2-1 lead in the National League Championship Series. “We expect to win when we come to the ballpark, and that’s kind of who they are,” Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. Lee provided another brilliant playoff start, striking out 10 and allowing only three hits in eight innings. “Cliff Lee, what can I say about him? He was absolutely outstanding,” Manuel said. Howard ran hard for a triple, Werth homered and the Phillies led, 6-0, by the second inning. Howard made two headfirst dives during the romp — the AllStar first baseman has an RBI in all seven of Philadelphia’s playoff games this year, a record streak in a single postseason. “He’s a big-game player,” Werth said. “We’ve got a lot of guys like that here, guys that thrive in big situations.” The Phillies came up with the most-lopsided win in their postseason history. Joe Blanton starts Game 4 tonight against Randy Wolf, who hasn’t pitched since the opener of the division series against St. Louis.

Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler scrambles in the pocket as he tries to avoid the Atlanta Falcons’ Nick Roach at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta on Sunday. The Falcons held on to beat the Bears, 21-14.

NFL ROUNDUP ATLANTA

Atlanta’s Michael Turner scored the go-ahead touchdown on an otherwise forgettable night, powering over from 5 yards with 3:06 remaining, and the defense held at the end to preserve a victory. Matt Ryan threw two touchdown passes for the Falcons (4-1), who matched the best five-game start in franchise history. The Bears (3-2) surely will be moaning about all the mistakes down close that helped end their three-game winning streak: a fumble at the 1, an interception at the 9 and a crucial

penalty when they had fourthand-1 at the Atlanta 5 with less than a minute to go.

Broncos winless in San Diego since ’05 Broncos continued from 21 what effect a loss is going to have,” Rivers said. The Broncos are coming off a 20-17 overtime win against the New England Patriots, giving rookie coach Josh McDaniels a victory against his mentor, Bill Belichick. The Broncos have an impressive offense, run by Kyle Orton and featuring wide receiver Brandon Marshall and rookie running back Knowshon Moreno, and their defense is

greatly improved. The Broncos have lost five of their last six games against San Diego. The only win was in Week 2 last season, when Denver benefited from referee Ed Hochuli’s blown call and won 39-38 at home. “We haven’t beaten the Chargers in a long time,” Broncos tight end Daniel Graham said. “It’s going to be a tough one for us. It’s been a little heated rivalry. No love lost between the two teams.” In the 2008 finale in San Diego,

the Chargers routed the Broncos to complete a four-game winning streak that gave them the AFC West title. It was the Broncos’ third straight loss, completing a historic collapse that cost coach Mike Shanahan his job. Not only have the Broncos not won in San Diego since 2005, their five losses to the Chargers during the last three seasons have been lopsided. “It was mentioned,” Graham said. “We know what they’ve done to us. We don’t want that outcome this week.”

Vikings 33, Ravens 31 MINNEAPOLIS

INSTALLATION

Brett Favre’s 58-yard completion to Sidney Rice set up Ryan Longwell’s fourth field goal, and Baltimore’s Steve Hauschka missed a 44-yard field goal as time expired, allowing Minnesota to remain undefeated. Favre threw for 278 yards and three touchdowns, but the Vikings (6-0) nearly blew this one when they let the Ravens erase a 17-point deficit with 10 minutes to play.

Saints 48, Giants 27 NEW ORLEANS

Drew Brees ended his twogame streak without a touchdown throw by completing 23 of 30 passes for 369 yards and four scores Sunday, and New Orleans easily remained unbeaten, torching the New York Giants’ league-leading defense. The Giants (5-1) came into the game giving up averages of 210.6 yards and 14.2 points. The Saints (5-0) had 34 points and 315 yards by halftime, as Brees threw three TD passes to reach 100 since the Saints signed him as a free agent in 2006.

Panthers 28, Bucs 21 TAMPA, Fla.

Cowboy

A week after getting their first win by beating the struggling Washington Redskins, the Panthers got another by rushing for 267 yards and three touchdowns. DeAngelo Williams gained a season-best 152 yards on 30 carries and scored twice, including the winning TD with 29 seconds left. The 1-yard dive capped a 16-play, 80-yard drive that took more than 8 minutes.

Texans 28, Bengals 17 CINCINNATI

Matt Schaub tied his career high with four TD passes —

two to tight end Owen Daniels — and Houston pulled away to deny Cincinnati another chance to win one at the end. The Bengals (4-2) had won three straight games in the last 22 seconds, pulling off one improbable drive after another because an opponent failed to finish them off.

Steelers 27, Browns 14 PITTSBURGH

Ben Roethlisberger threw two touchdown passes before the Steelers’ offense began stopping itself with turnovers, and Pittsburgh benefited from a curious first-down measurement to beat the rival Browns for the 12th time in a row. Roethlisberger, second in the league in passing and on pace for what would easily be the best statistical season of his career, was 23 of 35 for 417 yards in his second career 400yard game.

Raiders 13, Eagles 9 OAKLAND, Calif.

Louis Murphy threw two key blocks to spring Zach Miller’s 86-yard touchdown catch, Justin Fargas ran for 87 yards and Oakland’s defense harassed Donovan McNabb all day. The result was one of the more shocking ones so far this season as the Raiders (2-4) had lost three straight games by at least 20 points for the first time in franchise history and failed to reach 200 yards of offense the past four, while the Eagles (3-2) were second in the league in points per game.

Cardinals 27, Seahawks 3 SEATTLE

Arizona moved into a tie for the NFC West lead as Warner completed 32 of 41 passes for 276 yards and two touchdowns. Kurt Warner tied an NFL record for being the fastest to throw for 30,000 yards in a career and Larry Fitzgerald tied his career high with 13 receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown.

Bills 16, Jets 13, OT EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.

Rian Lindell kicked a 47-yard field goal with 2:44 left in overtime, making up for a miss at the end of regulation. The Bills (2-4) took advantage of Mark Sanchez’s fifth interception of the day to snap a three-game losing streak, and send the sputtering Jets (3-3) to their third straight loss.

Packers 26, Lions 0 GREEN BAY, Wis.

Aaron Rodgers got sacked five times but still managed to have a big day against Detroit’s defense, throwing for 358 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. Donald Driver became the franchise’s career receptions leader with a first-quarter catch, and rookie outside linebacker Clay Matthews III had two sacks as the Packers (3-2) turned in a dominant defensive effort against an undermanned Lions offense.

Chiefs 14, Redskins 6 LANDOVER, Md.

Ryan Succop’s four field goals, including the go-ahead 46-yarder with 3:36 to play, plus a last-minute safety were all the Chiefs needed. They earned rookie coach Todd Haley his first win and Jim Zorn another week of extreme questioning about the future of his job and the Washington franchise.

Jaguars 23, Rams 20, OT JACKSONVILLE, Fla.

Torry Holt had 101 yards receiving in his first game against his former team, Maurice Jones-Drew ran for 133 yards and three touchdowns and Jacksonville won in overtime. Josh Scobee provided the winner, a 36-yard field goal with 8 minutes to play in the extra frame.

Down 0-2, Angels hope for comeback

New York (Pettitte 14-8) at Los Angeles (Weaver 16-8), 2:13 p.m.

“We’ve got to calm it down and have some fun,” Hunter said. “You’ve got to have amnesia, and you’ve got to let the past go. ... (Against the Yankees) you can try to play too much. You can let that history get in your mind, and their payroll, and you really try to do too much. We have to block that out and play our game.”

Lee is 2-0 with 0.74 ERA in 3 playoff starts NLCS continued from 21 “You never want to get your rear end kicked,” Dodgers manager Joe Torre said. “But you don’t toss and turn and wonder if you made the right move. It’s still only one game and we’re in position to tie the series tomorrow.” The next two games in the best-of-seven series are set for Citizens Bank Park. Howard had three RBIs, including his two-run triple in the first. Werth followed that with a two-run homer, and that was more than enough for Lee. The reigning AL Cy Young Award winner faced just two batters through the minimum. Lee gave up a pair of singles to Manny Ramirez and one to Ronnie Belliard. Manuel planned to send Lee out for the ninth until he hit a single in the eighth and scored on Shane Victorino’s three-run homer. Chad Durbin relieved to begin the ninth and pitched a perfect inning. Lee is 2-0 with an 0.74 ERA in three postseason starts, giving the Phillies exactly what they expected when they acquired him from Cleveland in late July. “I don’t know if I ever doubted myself,” Lee said. “I always

had confidence in myself.” After wasting a brilliant performance by Pedro Martinez in Game 2, the Phillies jumped on Dodgers starter Hiroki Kuroda right from the start. On a brisk 46-degree night — almost half the temperature at Dodger Stadium for Game 3 Friday — Philadelphia’s hitters had no trouble swinging hot bats. Every starter except Raul Ibanez had a hit, and all nine starters scored a run. Victorino’s home run to deep right field put an emphatic exclamation mark on the rout. The shot also let Phillies outscore the city’s NFL team — the Eagles lost, 13-9, to the Oakland Raiders. Making his first start in 20 days, Kuroda only got four outs. He allowed six runs and six hits. Dodgers manager Joe Torre chose Kuroda instead of Chad Billingsley even though Kuroda was unavailable for the firstround series against St. Louis because of a herniation in his cervical spine. “They put me on the mound and I have to come through, but I didn’t,” Kuroda said through a translator. A sellout crowd of 45,721 made Kuroda uncomfortable from the start. Fans waved their

“Fightin’ Phils” rally towels and chanted “Beat LA! Beat LA!” even before the first pitch was thrown. Ramirez got an earful, too. Fans screamed “You took steroids!” before he struck out in the seventh inning. Victorino, who exchanged words with Kuroda in the NLCS last year after a fastball buzzed his head, got things started in the first. Victorino singled with one out and stole second. Chase Utley followed with a single. Howard then ripped a liner into the right-field corner to score both runners. The 255-pound slugger chugged around the bases and dove headfirst into the third for his first career postseason triple.

mistake in a two-game set full of miscues by the normally sure-handed Angels.

ANAHEIM, Calif.

Torii Hunter grabbed his hat, tied his spikes and headed out of Los Angeles’ home clubhouse into the abundant sunshine and cool breezes of Angel Stadium. “Now I can work on my tan again,” the Angels’ unofficial captain said with a grin Sunday. His Angels are undeniably in trouble after two nights of horrible weather and messier baseball in New York, where the Yankees took a 2-0 lead against their error-prone opponents in the American League Championship Series. Yet the Angels say they’re far from finished going into Game 3 today, insisting they can warm back up with the fundamentally sound play that got them here after a difficult season.

If the Angels don’t quickly reclaim that California cool, the Yankees could be headed to the World Series by Tuesday night. On an afternoon expected to feature near-perfect baseball weather, New York’s Andy Pettitte will attempt to win his major league-record 16th postseason game against Jered Weaver, specifically chosen for this start by Angels manager Mike Scioscia because of the southern California native’s prowess at home. “We know this thing can turn in a heartbeat,” Scioscia said. “If we win Game 3, we’ve got a different vibe in this series, and that’s what you want to create.” The teams definitely earned a relaxing day in the Orange County sun after their 13-inning, 310-minute epic Saturday night, won 4-3 by the Yankees on the final defensive

ComiCs & more Daily Horoscope by Eugenia Last

Overboard ® Chip Dunham

MONDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Omar Gooding, 33; Ty Pennington, 45; John Lithgow, 64; Simon Ward, 68 Happy Birthday: Don't let life's little aggravations get to you or hold you back. You are insightful and should be able to manipulate situations in your favor. Changes at home will end up being a blessing in disguise. Be open to the wishes of those around you, but don't give in to anything that doesn't suit your own needs. Your numbers are 5, 13, 17, 23, 26, 30, 46 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Deal with paperwork quickly. Partnerships may pose a problem at first but, once you figure out who's doing what, you should find your load is lightened. The common ground between you and whoever you partner with will grow. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Diplomacy coupled with persistence, honesty and sticking to the facts will bring good results when dealing with colleagues, clients or peers. An opportunity will develop through someone you have worked with in the past. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It's taking action that will bring results. Just because someone else procrastinates doesn't mean you have to. Get the facts and figures in writing. Don't let a change someone else makes spoil your plans. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Develop hobbies or activities that will take your mind off your worries. Problems with some of the people you care about will cause you grief if you aren't willing to overlook shortcomings. Rethink getting in touch with someone from your past.

★★★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Being too proud to ask for help will hold you back. Building a support system or a team that you can work alongside will lead to your popularity and success. Don't take the blame for something you didn't do or deal with responsibilities that don't belong to you. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don't dig up the past unless you are prepared to face the truth. Find out what you need to know before you

take on a task that may be too hard to handle on your own. Speak up, be articulate and ask for what you want. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You can expect to be confused by some of the results you get when dealing with personal matters. Before making a career change, consider your motives -- if it's because of a personality clash, stay put and work it out.

★★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A change at home will benefit you mentally, physically and financially. Offering a service that you enjoy doing will lead to extra cash. A relationship will change for the best due to the choices you make. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Set some rules if you want things to go your way. You can turn something you have to offer into a cash cow if you are unique in your presentation. There is money heading your way. Let past experience help you now. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Be willing to compromise. Someone will complain if you are too pushy. Sincerity, dedication and understanding will help. Uncertainty will arise due to a decision you made in the past. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Slow down, watch what you say and be careful while traveling. Don't let your emotions lead the way. Focus on following through with promises and making decisions that will lead to a better future. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The choices you make now regarding partnerships, your personal life and the way you earn your living will determine how much you can accomplish. You will learn a valuable lesson from someone you've known a long time. A sudden change should be welcomed. ★★★★★ Birthday Baby: You are bright, articulate and innovative. You are creative, experimental and opportunistic. Demonstrative actions will help you reach your goals.

Bomb hits Iran security forces Taliban vow to defeat 5 Revolutionary Guard leaders, at least 37 others killed Pakistan army’s surge The Associated Press

TEHRAN, Iran

A suicide bomber killed five senior commanders of the powerful Revolutionary Guard and at least 37 others Sunday near the Pakistani border in the heartland of a potentially escalating Sunni insurgency. The attack — which also left dozens wounded — was the most high-profile strike against security forces in an outlaw region of armed tribal groups, drug smugglers and Sunni rebels known as Jundallah, or Soldiers of God. President Mahmoud Ahma dinejad promised sharp retaliation. But a sweeping offensive by authorities is unlikely. Iranian officials have been reluctant to open full-scale military operations in the southeastern border zone, fearing it could become a hotspot for sectarian violence with the potential to draw in al-Qaida and Sunni militants from nearby Pakistan and Afghanistan. The region’s top prosecutor, Mohammad Marzieh, was quoted by the semi-official ISNA news agency as saying Jundallah claimed responsibil-

ity for the blast in the Pishin district near the Pakistani border. There was no immediate statement directly from the group, which has carried out sporadic kidnappings and attacks in recent years — including targeting the Revolutionary Guard — to press their claims of persecution in the Shiite government and officials. In May, Jundallah said it sent a suicide bomber into a Shiite mosque in the southeastern city of Zahedan, killing 25 worshippers. The latest attack, however, would mark the group’s highest-level target. It also raised questions about how the attacker breached security around such a top delegation from the Revolutionary Guard — the country’s strongest military force, which is directly linked to the ruling clerics under Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The official Islamic Republic News Agency said the victims included the deputy commander of the Guard’s ground forces, Gen. Noor Ali Shooshtari, as well as a chief provincial Guard commander, Rajab Ali

Ishtiaq Mahsud

DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan

Pakistani troops and the Taliban fought fierce battles Sunday in a militant sanctuary near the Afghan border, with both sides claiming early victories in an army campaign that could shape the future of the country’s battle against extremism. A Taliban spokesman vowed the Islamist militants would fight to “our last drop of blood” to defend their stronghold of South Waziristan, predicting the army would fail in its latest attempt to gain control over it. The army said 60 militants and six soldiers had been killed since the offensive began Saturday in the mountainous, remote region that the army has tried and failed to wrest from near-total insurgent control three times since 2004. The Taliban claimed to have inflicted “heavy casualties” and pushed advancing soldiers back into their bases. It was not possible to independently verify the claims because the army is blocking access to the battlefield and surrounding towns. Victory for the government

Mohammadzadeh. The others killed were Guard members or tribal leaders, it said. The agency quoted the provincial forensics director, Abbas Amian, as saying 42 bodies had been handed over to his department. More than two dozen others were wounded, state radio reported. The commanders were entering a sports complex to meet tribal leaders to discuss Sunni-Shiite cooperation when the attacker detonated a belt fitted with explosives, IRNA reported.

in South Waziristan’s tribal badlands would eliminate a safe haven for the Taliban militants blamed for surging terrorist attacks and the al-Qaida operatives they shelter there. It also would send a signal to other insurgent groups in the nucleararmed country of the military’s will and ability to fight them. Defeat would give the militants a propaganda victory, add to pressures on the country’s shaky civilian government and alarm Pakistan’s Western allies, which want to see it successfully crack down on militancy that is fueling and feeding off the insurgency in neighboring Afghanistan. “We know how to fight this war and defeat the enemy with the minimum loss of our men,” Taliban spokesman Azam Tariq said from an undisclosed location. “This is a war imposed on us, and we will defend our land until our last man and our last drop of blood. This is a war bound to end in the defeat of the Pakistan army.” Despite his comments, the some 10,000 Pakistani militants and about 1,500 foreign fighters are seen as unlikely to stand and fight.
