William Soller waits for sentencing at a November 2008 hearing

In two separate rulings on different cases handed down on the same day, appellate court panels ruled Sevier County Circuit Court judges erred in sentencing a local man as a Range II offender for drunken driving incidents, including one in which he collided with an off-duty

Pigeon Forge Police Officer. Both rulings uphold the convictions against William G. Soller, Jr., but remand the cases back to the Sevier County Circuit court for sentencing. Soller’s attorney, Ralph Harwell, argued during sentencing that he should not be sentenced as a Range II offender, a decision that effectively doubled his sentences for the

crimes, which he is serving consecutively. Judge Jon Kerry Blackwood sentenced Soller to five years in prison for the accident that injured Helton, and an additional four years for the earlier DUI. Because of the differences in sentencing guidelines for a Range II offender as opposed to a See Soller, Page A4

Imagination Library gives 25 millionth book to child By ELLEN BROWN Staff Writer Dolly Parton helped kick off the eighth annual KidsFest Friday at Dollywood’s Showstreet Palace Theatre, which included the presentation of the Imagination Library’s 25 millionth book. “It was a dream to start this program in honor of my dad,” Parton told the crowd. “Now we’re in 1,200 counties and three countries. The Imagination Library encourages kids and parents to read together.” She welcomed four-year-old Kumar Stewart of Birmingham, Ala., the recipient of the 25 millionth book, on stage with his parents, brother and sister. “This is a very handsome fella,” Parton said as she introduced Kumar to the audience. “All of my dreams are represented in this little person.” After she presented him with her signed book “I Am a Rainbow,” she sang “Celebrate the Dreamer in You,” which she also wrote. “I’ve always liked a good story,” she said. “I just read ‘Outlander’ (by Diana Gabaldon), which takes place in 18th century Scotland. And I always go back to ‘The Little Engine Who Could’ — because I was the little engine who did!” Parton also welcomed Jenna Bush-Hager, daughter of former President George W. Bush, who was sitting in the audience as news correspondent for NBC’s “Today.” Bush-Hager is reading coordinator

Guard yourself from identity theft Submitted report

Each year, as many as 9 million Americans become victims of identity theft, the unauthorized acquisition and use of a person’s identifying information — such as a name, Social Security number or credit card number — to commit fraud or other crimes. Identity thieves might use data to rent apartments, obtain credit or establish telephone accounts. Victims often discover the crimes when reviewing credit reports or statements. Thieves often strike by: n Dumpster diving: They rummage through trash, looking for bills or other documents. n Skimming: They steal credit/debit card numbers by using a special storage device when processing credit cards. n Phishing: They pretend to be financial institutions or companies and send spam or pop-up messages to get Internet users to reveal personal information. n Changing victims’ addresses: They divert billing statements to another location by completing a change-of-address form. n Old-fashioned stealing: They steal wallets, purses and mail — including bank and credit card statements and preapproved credit offers, replacement checks and

tax data. Identity theft victims can spend large amounts of time and money trying to repair their name and credit record. Tennesseans can take the following steps to help prevent becoming victims: Don’t divulge information like account numbers by phone, Internet or mail. Store personal information in a safe place, and shred old credit card receipts, ATM receipts, old account statements and unused credit card offers. Pay attention to billing cycles. Inquire with your bank if you do not receive a monthly bill. Guard your mail from theft. Do not leave bill payment envelopes in your mailbox with the flag up. Instead, deposit them in a post office collection box or at a local post office. Order and review copies of your credit report from the three major credit bureaus every year, to make sure it is accurate. This can be done for free. Consumer Affairs (www.tn.gov/consumer/) is a division of the Department of Commerce and Insurance (www. tn.gov/commerce/), which works to protect consumers while ensuring fair competition for industries and professionals who do business in Tennessee.

Firefighters out in force today for MDA SEVIERVILLE — Members of the Sevierville Fire Department will hit the streets today from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for their annual Fill the Boot drive for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. The community will have the opportunity to give a donation to firefighters near Wal-Mart, Food City and Firehouse Subs to help fund research and services that help local children and adults battling neuromuscular diseases. Last year, the Sevierville Fire Department raised over $5,000. The Firefighters plan to collect for MDA two more

weekends this summer and host a 5K race. One upcoming benefit of the fundraising efforts is MDA Summer Camp, where children ages 6-17 can be part of a weeklong getaway. Summer camp is one of the services MDA offers to local families battling muscular dystrophy. The donations collected by the firefighters will also help fund local clinics and support groups as well as fund research aimed at treatments and cures for neuromuscular diseases. MDA is a voluntary health agency working to find treatments and cures for 43 neuromuscular diseases.

Alan Jackson performs during the CMA Music Festival Thursday at LP Field in Nashville.

Music fans, heat, humidity collide this weekend NASHVILLE (AP) — Thousands of music fans and the hottest weather so far this year are mingling in tight quarters this weekend at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville and Bonnaroo near Manchester. The country music event is in Nashville’s downtown area with concerts at LP Field — the Tennessee Titans’ stadium. The music and arts festival is outdoors on a farm about 60 miles southeast of the city. Bonnaroo organizers expected about 70,000 fans to show up to see and hear acts that include Jay-Z, the Dave Matthews Band and Kings of Leon. The CMA event drew about 56,000 people last year and officials said ticket sales and hotel bookings appeared to be up by about 10 percent this year. Among stars shining at the event are Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum and Jason Aldean. Some of the stress on fans is excitement, but most of it is the weather. “It’s the heat,” said Vanderbilt University Medical Center spokesman Jerry Jones on Friday. “The

humidity and the heat.” Vanderbilt staffers treated 40 heat emergencies Thursday as the CMA Music Festival began. That’s about double the number of cases on the opening day at last event. Besides the heat exhaustion cases, 320 other people came to the three medical center tents Thursday needing minor aid — aspirin, adhesive bandages and the like. One patient had already been sent by ambulance to the emergency room by 9:30 a.m. Friday with chest pain that could have been brought on by hot weather. Even more oppressive weather was forecast for the weekend. The National Weather Service issued a cautionary statement for extreme heat and humidity, predicting temperatures in the mid90s and humidity readings in the mid-70s, pushing heat indexes to around 100 degrees.

Plantation site of Civil War re-enactment Submitted Report KNOXVILLE — Ramsey House Plantation will hold its annual Civil War Living History Weekend June 19-20. More than 150 re-enactors are expected to participate by portraying members of historic artillery, infantry, and cavalry units while encamped. A skirmish will be held both days. Among the historic units represented will be the First East Tennessee Artillery Battery, which was made up of East Tennessee refugees who went north into Kentucky to join the Union. In addition to the encampment and daily demonstrations, this year’s event will feature Sparky and Rhonda Rucker performing “Blue and Gray in Black and White.� This musical is based on the experiences and effects of the Civil War on different people and places, many of them local. It will be performed on Saturday at 1 and 2:45 p.m. Special stations for scout education will run from 11 a.m. to noon Saturday so that scouts can earn credit toward merits.

Submitted

Scenes from earlier Civil War Living History events at Ramsey House Plantation in Knoxville. This year’s event will be June 19 and 20. Hours for the public activities will be 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 19, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 20. Battle reenactments are scheduled for 2 p.m. each day. Ramsey House Plantation has strong ties to the Civil War through the service of its family members. Dr. J.G.M. Ramsey was a Confederate treasury agent, collecting and paying out large sums of money for a war-torn government. He also followed the armies as a surgeon, and his half-broth-

er, Dr. Frank A. Ramsey, was surgeon-in-chief of the Confederate States of America in Tennessee. Five of his sons fought in the conflict. J.G.M.’s daughter, Charlotte, contracted typhus as she journeyed across Knox and Sevier counties gathering hospital supplies

for the Confederacy. Admission to the reenactment is $5 per person; scouts in uniform $3; children 5 and under free. House tours will be $5. For more information visit www.ramseyhouse.org or call (865) 546-0745.

Range I offender, his sentence will likely be cut in half, said Steve Hawkins, assistant district attorney. “We’re pleased with the opinion as far as them affirming the convictions, and we understand about the resentencing,� Hawkins said Harwell could not be reached for comment on the story. Soller remains in prison. One of the two rulings involves an earlier DUI conviction against Soller. He was arrested Jan. 29, 2007, on the Parkway near the Wears Valley Road intersection. Soller failed a filed sobriety test and refused to take a Breathalyzer, according to court documents. He was convicted of DUI, and pleaded guilty to violation of implied consent law and driving on a revoked license. However, he appealed the court’s rulings, saying Blackwood should have suppressed evidence, that there was not sufficient evidence for his conviction and that he was improperly sentenced as a Range II offender. Under state law, that classification means an offender has faced enough prior convictions to justify longer sentencing. In a ruling issued by Judge D. Kelly Thomas Jr., the court found Blackwood acted properly regarding the hearing to suppress evidence Soller had been driving under the influence, and that there was sufficient evidence for his conviction. However, the court found Blackwood erred by treating aggravated burglary and aggravated assault charges stemming from a single incident. In that incident, Soller broke into a house and assaulted a man. A jury convicted him of aggravated assault and aggravated burglary, both felonies. However, because they occurred within 24 hours of each other, state law stipulates that they must be treated as a single conviction unless both charges involved an element of bodily injury. The court determined that, in this case, the aggravated burglary conviction didn’t include that element. “We conclude that the trial court erred in sentencing the defendant as a

multiple offender because the defendant’s prior convictions should have been treated as one conviction,� Thomas wrote. The second ruling pertains to the Aug. 29, 2007, incident in which Soller collided with offduty Pigeon Forge Police Officer Steve Helton when he pulled out in front of Helton’s motorcycle at the intersection of the Parkway and Collier Drive. The court in that case ruled the same way on the sentencing, saying Soller should not have been convicted as a Range II offender and returning the case to circuit court for sentencing. However, it ruled Blackwood was within his discretion in overruling a motion to change venue. It also ruled the court was not required to remove a juror who admitted she had contributed money to a fund to help pay for Helton’s’ injury, and was married to a Knoxville police officer. There was no evidence showing the juror acted with bias, Judge James Curtwood Smith Jr. said. Smith also ruled there was not enough evidence for his court to review Blackwood’s decision to prohibit testimony about a blood test performed on Helton. That test was performed seven hours after the accident and showed Helton had alcohol in his bloodstream. During the trial, the defense attempted to introduce an expert who it claimed would extrapolate Helton’s blood alcohol level at the time of the accident. Blackwood declined, saying the state was not informed of the evidence in time. Smith found there was not enough evidence in the record for the court to overturn that decision. The jury acted correctly, the ruled, in finding that he was guilty of felony reckless endangerment, reckless aggravated assault and DUI. It found that Blackwood omitted instructions regarding misdemeanor reckless endangerment when he instructed the jury, but it was not a basis for reversal. It also found that he failed to instruct them on misdemeanor reckless endangerment charges, but it was not “plain error� and did not require reversal. n jfarrell@themountainpress.com

Flash floods kill at least 20 people By JILL ZEMAN BLEED Associated Press Writer CADDO GAP, Ark. — Floodwaters that rose as swiftly as 8 feet an hour rushed into a remote Arkansas valley early Friday, killing at least 20 people, many of them campers who became trapped by a devastating wall of water. Dozens more were missing and feared dead. Heavy rains caused the normally quiet Caddo and Little Missouri rivers to climb out of their banks during the night. Around dawn, floodwaters barreled through the Albert Pike Recreation Area, a 54-unit campground in the Ouachita National Forest that was packed with vacationing families who were probably still asleep when their tents began to fill with water. The water poured through the valley with such force that it overturned RVs, peeled asphalt off roads, and swept away tents and their occupants. Two dozen people were hospitalized. Authorities rescued 60 others. Marc and Stacy McNeil of Marshall, Texas, survived by pulling their pickup truck between two trees and standing in the bed in waist-deep water. “It was just like a boat tied to a tree,� Marc McNeil said, describ-

ing how the truck bobbed up and down. They were on their first night of camping with a group of seven, staying in tents. The rain kept falling, and the water kept rising throughout the night, at one point topping the tool box in the back of the truck. “We huddled together, and prayed like we’d never prayed before.� Stacy McNeil said. They were able to walk to safety once the rain stopped. After the water receded, anguished relatives pleaded with emergency workers for help finding more than 40 missing loved ones. Gov. Mike Beebe said the death toll could rise. Forecasters warned of the approaching danger during the night, but campers could easily have missed those advisories because the area is isolated. “There’s not a lot of way to get warning to a place where there’s virtually no communication,� Beebe said. “Right now we’re just trying to find anybody that is still capable of being rescued.� The governor said damage at the campground was comparable to that caused by a strong tornado. The force of the water carried one body 8 miles downstream. While the governor spoke, rescu-

history. The larger estimates, while still preliminary and considered a worst-case scenario, could contribute to breathtaking liabilities against BP. Penalties can be levied against the company under a variety of environmental protection laws, including fines of up to $1,100 under the Clean Water Act for each barrel of oil spilled. Based on the maximum amount of oil possibly

ers in canoes and kayaks were on the Little Missouri looking for bodies and survivors who might still be stranded. Crews were initially delayed in their search because a rock slide blocked a road leading to the campsites. “As that river goes down, you don’t know how many people are under it,� the governor said. Authorities prepared for a long effort to find other corpses that may have been washed away. “This is not a one- or two-day thing,� said Gary Fox, a retired emergency medical technician who was helping identify the dead and compile lists of those who were unaccounted for. “This is going to be a week or twoor three-week recovery.� The heavily wooded region offers a mix of campgrounds, hunting grounds and private homes. Wilderness buffs can stay at sites with modern facilities or hike and camp off the beaten path. Cabins dotting the banks of the river were severely damaged. Boards hung lopsided from rooftops, and porches were missing rails. Some trees were flattened by the water, bent to the ground by the rushing water. Others had bare spots where the flood apparently wiped the bark clean from their trunks.

spilled to date, that would translate to a potential civil fine for simple discharge alone of $2.8 billion. If BP were found to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct, the civil fine could be up to $4,300 per barrel, or up to $11.1 billion. “It’s going to blow the record books up,� said Eric Schaeffer, who led the Environmental Protection Agency’s enforcement office from 1997 to 2002.

Dow posts first weekly gain in nearly a month NEW YORK (AP) — The Dow Jones industrial average has logged its first winning week in a month. The Dow rose 39 points Friday and ended the week with a gain of 2.8 percent, its best weekly advance since mid-February. The market slid in morning trading on disappointing retail sales numbers but started to pare its losses after a report found consumers are gaining confidence in the economy. The market climbed in the last hour of trading to end near the highs of the day. Treasury prices rose, pushing down interest rates, after spiking on Thursday. The preliminary Reuters/University of Michigan consumer sentiment index for June showed consumer confidence rose to its highest level since January 2008 and came in well ahead of forecasts. The jump in confidence was

New oil spill total is bad news for BP, wildlife GRAND ISLE, La. (AP) — The mind-boggling news that the oil leak at the bottom of the sea may be twice as big as previously thought could have major repercussions for both the environment and BP’s financial health, killing more marine life and dramatically increasing the amount the company must pay in fines and damages. Scientists now say the blown-out well could have been spewing as much as 2 million gallons of crude before a cut-and-cap maneuver started capturing some of the flow, meaning more than 100 million gallons may have leaked into the Gulf of Mexico since the start of the disaster in April. That is more than nine times the size of the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster, previously the worst oil spill in U.S.

an encouraging sign, but still doesn’t signal the allclear for the economy, said Michael Sheldon, chief market strategist at RDM Financial Group in Westport, Conn. “We recovered some lost ground, but there is still some ways to go,� Sheldon said. That was evident in the disappointing retail sales report, which initially sent stocks lower. The government reported that retail sales fell 1.2 percent in May. It was the first drop in eight months. It was a surprise to economists who had predicted the pace of growth would slow between April and May, but still rise. Companies dependent on consumer spending fell after the report. Proctor & Gamble Co., which makes Tide detergent and Gillette razors, lost 1.5 percent. J.C.Penney Co. fell 1.1 percent, while Macy’s Inc. shares also slipped.

Ga. man charged in Tenn. courthouse takeover plot KNOXVILLE (AP) — A Georgia man with a pistol on his hip told authorities he had an AK-47 rifle he was ready to use to help a group of extremists take over a Tennessee courthouse to settle a gripe against government officials. Federal court documents say Darren Wesley Huff of Dalton, Ga., talked freely to law enforcement about his role in the plan to arrest 24 officials. He also told FBI agents,

Tennessee troopers and others that he would help take over the Monroe County Courthouse in Madisonville if necessary. Huff was arraigned Friday in Knoxville. He has pleaded not guilty to a charge of transportation of a firearm in furtherance of a civil disorder. FBI Special Agent Mark Van Balen, who investigates domestic and international terrorism, said in a criminal

complaint that Huff was wearing a pistol on his hip when stopped by Tennessee troopers and local officers on April 20 near Sweetwater. “Huff said he was ready to die for his rights and what he believed in,” Van Balen wrote. Huff had told FBI agents a day earlier that he wanted to help Walter Fitzpatrick, a Sweetwater man who had an April 20 court appearance in Monroe County.

commentary

Three Cheers Fun time: 11 from county participate in Girls State

Sometimes, issues need a little heat President Obama and I may have one distinct thing in common. Often when folks disagree with my analysis, they label me an angry white man. The far left loves to do that. Any passion shown by forces opposed to the “progressive” agenda is often described as irrational and vitriolic. Now Obama finds himself in a similar place. For weeks, the president was criticized for being disengaged regarding the oil spill catastrophe in the Gulf. Even fellow liberals like Spike Lee and Bill Maher implored the president to get angry, to show some visible displeasure. Ever the cool customer, Obama did not immediately heed that advice. But this week, an ABC News/Washington Post poll showed that 69 percent of Americans believe the feds are doing a bad job of dealing with the spill. Uh-oh. The president took notice. He booked himself on the “Today” show and told Matt Lauer that he is fully engaged in seeking solutions to the disaster. He’s speaking with all kinds of experts. The president then said: “We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers, so I know whose ass to kick.” Ooooooh! Let the kicking begin. But the punt threat didn’t turn out the way the president envisioned. Instead of the media getting behind the behind kicking, they have turned this into a race issue. Writing in The Washington Post, far-left columnist Jonathan Capehart put forth: “Let me ask you a question. When was the last time you saw your black male colleague ... show anger or rage...? My hunch is never. ... “African-American men are taught at very young ages (or learn the hard way) to keep our emotions in check, to not lose our cool, lest we be perceived as dangerous or menacing...” Are you kidding me? If Obama shows displeasure, he’s menacing? Three minutes ago he was a wimp for not drowning the CEO of British Petroleum. Now he’s dangerous because he says he wants to kick some butt? Even if you don’t like the president, you have to admit: The guy can’t win. The underlying story here is why some in the media continue to embrace this race business. Why are they bothering with this nonsense? I think the answer is that race provides cover. To his credit, Obama has largely rejected the race card. Only in that absurd Massachusetts incident where a white cop confronted a black Harvard professor could Obama be accused of entering racial waters. He ran for president as an American, not as an African-American. But every time Obama gets into trouble, devoted acolytes like Capehart trot out skin color. I guess they think being black makes it more difficult for the president to govern. But linking race to the president’s reaction to the oil spill is really beyond the pale. The truth is, President Obama is a cool guy. But sometimes heat is needed to get things done. Skin color has nothing to do with it. — Veteran TV news anchor Bill O Reilly is host of the Fox News show “The O Reilly Factor” and author of the book “Who’s Looking Out For You? Distributed by Creators Syndicate. (C)2009 Bill O’Reilly.

Eleven rising high school seniors from Sevier County schools have been spending this week in Nashville paying some civic rent and learning about their government. The students are wrapping up their week at the American Legion Auxiliary Girls State at Lipscomb University. It is a coveted honor for those chosen to attended the program. Those chosen from Gatlinburg-Pittman: Kayleigh Hansen, Courtney Hoskins, Courtney Rolen, Lauren Walker. From Pigeon Forge: Sky Ashuin, Michelle Kelly, Autumn Wilkinson. From Sevier County: Lisa Burke, Alexis Conner, Kaycee Dixon, Kaytlin Giammo. Delegates to Girls State are selected based on academic and leadership potential and are sponsored by Legion auxiliaries, businesses, civic organizations or sponsor delegates. Those who attend debate issues that challenge the state Legislature, establish their own city, county and state governments and heard, among other speakers, Gov. Phil Bredesen. Two delegates from Girls State will be chosen for Girls Nation in Washington in July and one will become eligible to compete for a $20,000 college scholarship. Sounds like a great experience.

Nine from GP, PF a hit on district baseball team

It takes nine players to field a baseball team. With that being the case, there were enough players from Gatlinburg-Pittman and Pigeon Forge selected to the All District 3-AA squad to take the field — although some might have to play out of position. Six were chosen from Pigeon Forge and three from GP. Three PF Tigers earned extra special recognition, beginning with Justin Carter, who was named Most Valuable Player. Not only did he bat .373, he swiped 34 bases, scored 51 runs, had a 9-1 pitching record and also played outfield. Bret Gallihugh was named Co-Pitcher of the Year, going 8-4 with 1.12 earned run average and 101 strikeouts in 62 1/3 innings. Freshman third baseman Wil Crowe was named Rookie of the Year, batting .476 with 49 RBI. Sans statistics, also named from Pigeon Forge were senior designatedhitter Hayden Whaley, freshman allpurpose player Drake Byrd and freshman first baseman Colt Buchanan. From GP: senior pitcher-catcher Drew Barton, senior pitcher-infielder Daniel Roberts and sophomore catcher-infielder Ryan Myers.

Public forum New library pretty, but it’s also a lot of money wasted

Editor: The other day I was at the new Library. It is amazing to me how it is that there is so much money wasted, when you hear of the lack of education. I will admit that the building is pretty, but that is the point: It is too pretty. When you think of the money spent. What really makes me mad is when I asked the staff why there were so few books on the shelves, the answer was a offhand remark: “we do not have a large book budget.” That made me think, if they had gone with a simpler building, at a lower cost to build, then they would have some money for books. Another way to look at it is this: What good is a

NAIA FOOTBALL

Former Tiger could get first college start this fall Harper got spring game start for NAIA top 10 Lambuth By JASON DAVIS Sports Editor JACKSON, Tenn. — Paul Harper’s senior year at Pigeon Forge was bittersweet. While the gunslinger

was firing his way to the top of the 2006 area passing lists, his Tigers suffered through the worst season the Orange and Black have had since the school’s inception — an 0-10 mark. Still, the QB earned a shot at college at Jackson, Tenn.’s Lambuth University. This year, after two years of waiting in line, it appears the Tigers’ forPaul Harper mer signal caller will get a shot to erase the memory of those 10 losses as of a team that finished the starting quarterback 6th in the final NAIA poll

last season. Harper had a stellar spring game, starting and going 11-of-22 for 220 yards with three passing TDs and another on the ground. “He’s been running the scout team over there for three years, and I guess he’s kind of the survivor,” Bobby Harper, Paul’s father, said. Hugh Freeze, who had piloted the Eagles to a 20-5 mark in his two seasons as head coach, flew the coop in December to become the offensive

coordinator at San Diego State but then switched to become Arkansas State’s OC in March. That seemed to open the door for Harper, as Lambuth’s new head coach Ron Dickerson has given him a shot with the first team in spring practice. With that shot, Harper flourished, earning the start in the offense versus defense-styled spring game at Lambuth. Despite Harper’s big numbers, the defense won 78-67 in a shootout.

Competing in the fall with Harper for the starting job will be Jordan Jackson and Nathan Jolley. Jackson was a quarterback in high school before being converted to safety under Freeze. Coach Dickerson moved Jackson back to QB, where he’s a dual-threat quarterback. Jolley is a sophomore signal caller from Houston High School in Germantown, Tenn. mpsports@themountainpress.com

NASCAR SPRINT CUP

Joey Logano feels he was ’done wrong’ by Kevin Harvick By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Kevin Harvick can deal with Joey Logano’s aggressive driving. He can tolerate the weekly battles on the Nationwide and Sprint Cup circuits as the veteran and the youngster test each other’s patience.

Harvick can even put up with NASCAR’s youngest Cup driver taking a shot at his manhood by saying Harvick’s wife DeLana “wears the firesuit in the family.” That’s all fine, to a point. Harvick’s bigger concern these days isn’t who’s in charge of his decision making, it’s who’s in charge of

Logano’s. Harvick blasted Logano’s father Tom on Friday, arguing the elder Logano needs to step aside and stop meddling in his son’s racing career following a very public dustup between the two camps during last week’s Cup race at Pocono. “His father has no place

in this,” Harvick said. “He needs to step back and act like the rest of the dads and be happy that his kid is here. This isn’t Little League baseball anymore.” The lecture from the current Cup points leader followed a series of run-ins between Harvick and Joey Logano, the most public of

and had to be restrained by members of Harvick’s crew. His father, a highly visible presence around the garage, was right in the middle of it, at one point shoving a television reporter before things calmed down. The outburst from the See NASCAR FEUD, Page A9

Appeals court sides with Bonds

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A divided federal appeals court has dealt the federal government a significant setback in its prosecution of Barry Bonds on perjury charges. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday that prosecutors may not present positive urine samples and other vital evidence that the government says shows that the slugger knowingly used steroids. The appeals court ruling upholds a lower court decision barring federal prosecutors from showing the jury any evidence collected by Bonds’ personal trainer Greg Anderson. Anderson last year told the trial court judge that he would rather go to jail on contempt of court charges than testify against Bonds. The court says evidence tied directly to Anderson is inadmissible “hearsay” evidence unless the trainer testifies to the items’ authenticity.

Smokies lead down to a half game after 11-3 loss to Jaxx SEVIERVILLE — Thursday night’s much-anticipated showdown between the top two teams in the Southern League North Division turned into a rather lackluster affair. A six-run fifth inning by the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx proved to be the Tennessee Smokies undoing in an 11-3 loss Thursday night to their rivals, the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx. With the loss, Tennessee (36-24) is Alberto now just a half game ahead of West Tenn Cabrera for first. While his numbers told a different story heading into the game, Tennessee starter Alberto Cabrera did fare rather well early on. After allowing a run on a sacrifice fly to make it 1-0 Diamond Jaxx, Cabrera settled down and kept the Smokies in the game through the first four innings. That changed in the top of the fifth, however. With one out in the frame, West Tenn’s Brandon Bantz hit a grounder to Tennessee SS Marwin Gonzalez. What looked like to

be a sure out was anything but as the ball went underneath Gonzalez’s glove, allowing Bantz to reach first. After another out and a single by Carlos Peguero to put runners on first and second, Alex Liddi drilled a three-run home run off Cabrera to put the Diamond Jaxx up 4-0. West Tenn wasn’t done, though. A run-scoring single by Scott Savastano and two-run double by Carlos Triunfel off Tennessee’s Jake Muyco, who relieved Cabrera, gave the Diamond Jaxx a commanding 7-0 lead. On the night, Cabrera (0-3) lasted 4-2/3 innings, allowing six runs (only one earned) on six hits. He struck out three and walked one in his third loss of the year. Tennessee’s offense came to life in the sixth as Robinson Chirinos doubled to center off West Tenn starter Steve Bray (4-3). The two-run double brought life to the Smokies and the 2,501 in attendance. West Tenn squashed the Smokies’ momentum, though, adding two in the seventh and two more in the ninth to put the game away. Sandwiched in between the four runs was Ty Wright’s 10th home run of the year, a solo shot to left-center that gave the Smokies their only other run of the contest. Tennessee next hosts West Tenn 6:15 p.m. tonight.

The GatlinburgPittman Highlanders basketball team has mowed down 13 opponents since the TSSAA dead period for high school teams expired at the end of the school year. The varsity summer camp edition of the Blue and Gold are a perfect 13-0 in summer scrimmages held recently at Lincoln Memorial University and Maryville College. “We’ve had some good successes so far,” said Highlanders coach Raul Placeres. “We just need to keep working hard, keep preparing for the upcoming season.” The G-P team will continue its work this weekend at Maryville College in a tournament that includes teams such as Knoxville Central, Anderson County and Cosby. “There’s some good competition there,” said Placeres. “It can only help us as a team.” chitchcock@themountainpress.com

normally soft spoken second-year Cup driver raised eyebrows around the garage. Harvick, however, wasn’t surprised. And he’s not entirely sure who made the call to put on such a public display of anger. “It’s very evident who’s pushing him the most and that’s his dad,” Harvick said. “His dad shoved him into a pile like a dog chasing after a bone.” Tom Logano was later summoned to speak with series officials, though he was not reprimanded. It was not his first visit to the NASCAR hauler. He temporarily lost his credentials last season after making a threatening gesture toward Greg Biffle following a Nationwide race in California, a race his son won. Joey Logano, however, defended his father while allowing that he could have opted to sit this one out. “He’s always been by my side my whole life and maybe it was a position that maybe he shouldn’t have been there, but he’s a father,” the driver said. “I bet 99 percent of the fathers would’ve been

address the situation with Joey Logano before a Nationwide race at Nashville the next week, Harvick says the younger Logano blew him off. Things have remained frosty ever since, though Harvick maintains he’s happy to meet with Joey Logano to talk things out. Logano, at least for the moment, doesn’t appear to be interested. He jogged past reporters after qualifying for Sunday’s Cup race at Michigan to catch a ride to Kentucky for Nationwide practice. Earlier Friday he stressed he wasn’t trying to send a message to Harvick. He got mad. He’s done it before, though this was one of the first times he’s done it in front of the cameras. “It was not a big deal to me, but I think a lot of people are surprised and they weren’t ready for that,” Logano said. Count Mark Martin among those who were startled. “I was surprised to see his ferocity,” Martin said.

there anyway.” Harvick contends one of the problems is that Tom Logano is always there. Where drivers like Mark Martin see a father trying to help his son find his way at NASCAR’s top level, Harvick sees someone who needs to let his son fight his own battles. Harvick has little problem if those battles are fought on the track, a common occurrence for Harvick and Logano over the past year. The list of tracks where they’ve mixed it up is lengthy and spans both of NASCAR’s top two series. Bristol. Nashville. Phoenix. Richmond. Pocono. It’s gotten to the point that when one driver sees the other, things are going to get interesting. Harvick claims it’s Tom Logano’s inability to simply let the drivers “have at it” that is the problem. Harvick claims Tom Logano had physical contact with one of Harvick’s public relations managers at Bristol. When he tried to

Chicago,� McCauley said. Alex Manley, 18, of West Chicago wore a feathered headdress and admitted to being new to Blackhawks fandom. “I love bandwagons. They’re the best,� Manley said. “You get to dress up, it’s great.� Thrilled to have the silver cup back in Chicago, fans brought tin foil replicas to the parade. They climbed street lights and stood atop parking garages to get a better view of the real cup. Marcie Karavakis, 53, of Chicago, brought her standard poodle, Curly, who stood quietly amid the throng. “This might not have been such a great idea,� Karavakis said as she pondered the best way to squeeze through the crowds that stood 100 feet deep in some spots along the motorcade’s route.

CHICAGO — Thousands of cheering Blackhawks fans lined the streets of downtown Chicago on Friday to congratulate the team for winning the franchise’s first Stanley Cup championship since 1961. The triumphant Blackhawks rode through the streets of Chicago in double-decker buses as fans roared and confetti spilled from the rooftops. Team legends, including Stan Mikita and Tony Esposito, joined current players on the open-topped buses. A sea of fans wearing the team’s redand-black colors streamed into the streets behind the caravan as it headed to Michigan Avenue. The parade and rally drew new fans along with die-hards like 23-year-old

He said his team will go all the way again next year. “I love my Blackhawks,� said Dwyer, a Hawks flag draped around his shoulders as a cape. “There are no words to express the joy and the excitement that the Hawks have brought the Stanley Cup back to Chicago.� The Blackhawks beat the Philadelphia Flyers in overtime Wednesday to win the series 4-2. Chicago resident Don McCauley said even an afternoon game between the city’s baseball rivals, the White Sox and the Cubs, wouldn’t keep him away from the celebration. “It is summertime.

Appeals court sides with Barry Bonds

Boise State will join Mountain West By JOHN MILLER Associated Press Writer

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A divided federal appeals on Friday court dealt the federal government a significant setback in its prosecution of Barry Bonds on perjury charges. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday that prosecutors may not present positive urine samples and other vital evidence that the government says shows that the slugger knowingly used steroids. The appeals court ruling upholds a lower court decision barring federal prosecutors from showing the jury any evidence collected by Bonds’ personal trainer Greg Anderson. Anderson last year told the trial court judge that he would rather go to jail on contempt of court charges than testify against Bonds. The court says evidence tied directly to Anderson is inadmissible “hearsay� evidence unless the trainer testifies to the items’ authenticity.

AP

Barry Bonds waves his cap in what would be his final big league game in Sept. 2007.

BOISE, Idaho — Boise State on Friday accepted an invitation to join the Mountain West Conference in 2011 as the two-time Fiesta Bowl winner seeks out a league that’s a better launching pad into lucrative postseason bowl games. Boise State, currently a Western Athletic Conference member, would become the Mountain West Conference’s 10th member. The move would be effective July 1, 2011. The announcement is part of a massive conference shuffle nationwide, where leagues like the Pac-10 have lured Colorado and may be trying to attract even more schools. As Boise State aims to secure a shot at more regular appearances in Bowl Championship Series postseason games worth millions, Mountain West Conference commissioner Craig Thompson said his

league is boosting its strength by adding a football program that’s captured the nation’s imagination, and prime-time television exposure. “The MWC continues to strategize regarding potential membership scenarios and bringing Boise State into the Conference is an important part of that evolution,� Thompson said in a statement. Boise State beat TCU, a Mountain West member, in the Fiesta Bowl in January. It scored an 43-42 overtime upset over Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.

Boise State president Bob Kustra said the invitation shows Boise State has demonstrated academic and athletic success. “This move is in the best interests of Boise State’s future, and the university is excited to be part of one of the nation’s most outstanding conferences,� Kustra said. On Monday, the Mountain West Conference had agreed not to immediately expand the nine-team league, opting instead to watch the shifting landscape as officials from the Big Ten, Pac-10 and Big 12 debated adding schools.

Advice

Husband’s reaction to surgery puts wife on the defensive

Zits

Blondie

Baby Blues

Beetle Bailey

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for 22 years. Two weeks ago, I took him to the ER because he had abdominal pains. After hours of waiting, his scheduled CT-scan was delayed. The doctor recommended I go home, since it was 4 a.m. My husband was supposed to call me as soon as he had the results. Instead, he called his mother. I finally phoned, and he told me he needed a laparoscopic appendectomy. He then said his mother and sister would be driving up to visit (it’s 330 miles) and staying with me. This didn’t exactly make me happy. We are doing some renovations, and I felt their visit was intrusive and unnecessary for a minor surgical procedure. My motherin-law and sister-in-law did nothing to help around the house, so not only was I overseeing the workers and taking care of my husband (who was home within 18 hours after surgery), but also cooking and cleaning up after my in-laws. They left three days later, and my mother-in-law has called daily to see how her baby is doing. I did not discuss my feelings with my husband until last evening, and it caused a big fight. I’m a very private person and do not easily share personal information with family members. Although I think my husband’s mother needed to know about his surgery, I believe he should have waited to call her at a later time or should have been more adamant about discouraging her visit. Did I overreact? — Needing To Know Dear Needing: A tiny bit. Your husband should have given you the results

of his medical tests first, but Mom also deserved to know. He should not have encouraged them to visit without checking with you, but it’s understandable that Mom was worried. All surgeries, even minor ones, carry risk. Finally, Mom and Sis should have helped you out instead of being a burden. Because you do not like to share this kind of information with family members, you reacted negatively. Because your husband loves his family and saw no reason to keep this from them, he doesn’t understand why you are upset. He needs to put you first, and you should work on being more tolerant of your inlaws. Dear Annie: My husband cheated on me. My best friend saw me through the emotional pain and the divorce. Now this same friend is having an affair with a married man. She refuses to listen to me when I remind her how much my husband’s affair hurt. I can barely stand to be near her, but I also don’t think I can handle losing both my husband and best friend in the same year. What should I do? — Alone and Lonely Dear Alone: Your friend is in love and not rational. You may need to avoid her for a while, so consider this an opportunity to get involved in new activities and expand your

social circle. Check your park district, community center and the Chamber of Commerce. Sign up for some computer classes. Take tango lessons. Volunteer at the local children’s hospital or animal shelter. Make yourself busy enough to focus on what’s good in your life instead of what isn’t. Dear Annie: As a widow who still misses her husband desperately, I would like to respond to “Still Miss Him,” who resents that her mother remarried after Dad died. Does she believe her late father was so selfish as to want to deny Mom a chance at some happiness? Mom’s decision to marry is not about Dad. He is out of the competition. The contest is between living with his memory and living with a live spouse. As a person who has been widowed for five years, it is no contest. I would not compare the new spouse to the deceased, only to the prospect of continued widowhood. An undertaker once told me that it is the widowed with happy marriages who choose to remarry. — Widowhood Stinks Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Boats head to teen sailor drifting in ocean By ROD McGUIRK Associated Press Writer

Dutch citizen Joran van der Sloot, left, sits between officers while being transported in a police car in Lima, Thursday.

Van der Sloot charged with 1st-degree murder By FRANK BAJAK Associated Press Writer LIMA, Peru — A Peruvian judge on Friday ordered Joran van der Sloot jailed on charges of first-degree murder and robbery in the killing of a 21-year-old Lima woman, determining he acted with “ferocity and great cruelty.� Lima Superior Court Judge Juan Buendia issued the order before dawn and the 22-year-old suspect was first taken with other prisoners in an armored truck to Lima’s judicial palace, then alone to an eastern Lima prison where he will have his own cell in a segregated block. Police manhandled Van der Sloot as they ushered him quickly out of the truck at into the judicial palace, a scarf around his neck and his hands cuffed behind him. Two officers pushed his head down. “Disgrace!� and “Murderer!� angry onlookers yelled as Van der Sloot was taken from the prosecutor’s office where he had been held since Thursday. One person threw rotten lettuce. Van der Sloot remains the lone suspect in the 2005 disappearance in Aruba of Natalee Holloway, and the chief of Peru’s criminal

Pope begs forgiveness for abuse VATICAN CITY (AP) — Addressing the clerical abuse scandal from the heart of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Benedict XVI begged forgiveness Friday from victims and promised to “do everything possible� to protect children at a Mass celebrated by 15,000 priests from around the world. While symbolic, Benedict’s pledge failed to satisfy victims groups who said promises were useless without a clear-cut action plan to root out pedophile priests, expose the bishops who protected them and change the Vatican policies and culture that allowed abuse to continue. His comments came during a Mass at St. Peter’s Square marking the Vatican’s Year of the Priest — a year marred by revelations of hundreds of new cases of clerical abuse in Europe, Latin America and elsewhere, as well as cover-ups by bishops and evidence of long-standing Vatican inaction.

police said he told investigators that he knows the location of the U.S. teen’s body. Police say Van der Sloot smashed in the face of Lima business student Stephany Flores, whom he met playing poker at a casino, after taking her to his hotel room on May 30. They say he then strangled her, threw her to the floor, emptied her wallet. If convicted on the murder and robbery charges, Van der Sloot would be sentenced to between 15 and 35 years in prison, court spokesman Luis Gallardo told The Associated Press. “The aggravating factors are having acted with ferocity and great cruelty,� he said. The announcement of the charges and judge’s order came in a news release issued by the court. Van der Sloot was taken to the maximum-security Castro Castro prison where, for his own protection, he will have his own cell in a small block near the prison director’s office, said prisons spokesman Bruno Guzman.

CANBERRA, Australia — A 16-year-old sailor on a round-the-world journey alone was drifting in the frigid, rough southern Indian Ocean on Friday as rescue boats headed toward her yacht, damaged by 30-foot waves that knocked out her communications and prompted her to set off a distress signal. After a tense 20 hours of silence, a search plane launched from Australia’s west coast made radio contact with Abby Sunderland on Friday. Her boat’s mast was broken — ruining satellite phone reception — and was dragging with the sail in the ocean, said search coordinator Mick Kinley, acting chief of the Australia Maritime Safety Authority that chartered a commercial jet for the search. But the keel was intact, the yacht was not taking on water and Sunderland was equipped for the conditions, he said. “The aircraft (crew) spoke to her. They told her help was on the way and she sounds like she’s in good health,� Kinley told reporters in Canberra. “She’s going to hang in there until a vessel can get to her,� probably on Saturday, he said. A lifelong sailor, Sunderland had begun her journey trying to be the youngest person to sail solo, nonstop around the world and continued her trip after mechanical failures dashed that dream. She told searchers Friday that she was doing fine with a space heater and at least two weeks’ worth of food, said family spokesman William Bennett. Support team member Jeff Casher said the boat had gotten knocked on its side several times. The seas were rough late Friday with 20- to 24-foot waves at her last known location, according to Shaun Tanner, senior meteorologist at data provider Weather Underground. Abby’s father, Laurence Sunderland, thanked the Australian rescuers’ quick response in sending out a search plane. He told The Associated Press by telephone Friday that a fishing boat en

The seas in the area are still choppy, but calmer than before. “It’s all looking very promising,� he said. Her father rejected criticism that it was far too dangerous to allow a 16-yearold to sail around the world by herself. “Sailing and life in general is dangerous. Teenagers drive cars. Does that mean teenagers shouldn’t drive a car?� Laurence Sunderland told the AP. “I think people who hold that opinion have lost their zeal for life. They’re living in a cottonwool tunnel to make everything safe.� Abby’s brother, Zac, himself a veteran of a solo sail around the world at age 17, said he told his sister to be prepared for storms and other problems. But he said it’s in her nature to handle those calmly. “I think Abby is quite a conqueror, quite levelheaded,� her brother said on ABC’s “Good Morning America� on Friday.

Her brother briefly held the record in 2009. Sunderland soon ran into equipment problems and had to stop for repairs. She gave up the goal of setting the record in April, but continued. On May 15, Australian 16-year-old Jessica Watson claimed the record after completing a 23,000-mile circumnavigation in 210 days.
