PIGEON FORGE — After more than 11 years with the city’s Special Events office, Director Lila Wilson has announced she’s

jumping on her horse and heading into the sunset, off to pursue career advancement in the wild frontier.

Actually the creator of the city’s popular cowboyWilson themed Saddle Up! event has been named director of the Morristown Area Chamber of Commerce Department of

Tourism. She’ll spend her last day on the job here Tuesday before starting in her new post on Wednesday.

“It’s certainly with mixed emotions that I leave,” Wilson says.

“I have absolutely loved working with Leon Downey and Earlene Teaster and for the city of Pigeon Forge.”

She also mentioned Kay Powell, her direct supervisor for several years.

Wilson heard about the Morristown opening through an e-mail. She decided to pursue the job.

“I still have a few years in my career and this new opportunity is something I’m very excited about,” she says. “I think it’s going to be a good chance for me to grow and experience some new things; to advance myself.”

Gatlinburg’s Fourth of July festivities seemed to have worn out Gloria Hamm, 1, who was visiting with her family from Jefferson, N.C.

GATLINBURG — When it comes to destinations for the Fourth of July, Gatlinburg still seems to be a top spot for visitors from far and near: George Hawkins, the city’s special events manager, reported an estimated 80,000100,000 people at the Midnight Fourth of July Parade.

“It’s wonderful that people are coming to Gatlinburg and wanting to be a part of what’s going on,” he said.

Joe and Patricia Hamm of Jefferson, N.C., enjoyed strolling downtown on Sunday afternoon with their young daughters.

“We come every summer for the girls,” said Patricia, who had been pushing 1-year-old Gloria, fast asleep, in her stroller. “She (Linda, age 4) really likes the aquarium.”

“We’re repeat visitors — we enjoy it,” said Jerry Maurice of Louisville, Ky., who was joined by wife Barb. “We come to Gatlinburg every few years.”

The couple was watching the River Raft Regatta, waiting for their niece’s boat to come sailing up the river.

“She put a boat together with her dad — it was their weekend project,” Barb said.

“Her boat may be bigger than the others’,” Jerry added.

Carter Alexander, a chef at Gatlinburg’s HellBenders Grill, was also surveying the regatta’s entries during a break.

“Last night’s parade was probably one of the best they’ve ever had — and I’ve been coming since I was a kid,” he said.

“They had the military in the front, and the floats were really good.”

It was the first trip to the Smokies for Jody and Crystal Hicks of Jackson, who brought son Thurston, 7, and daughter Karlie, 3.

over to Gatlinburg on July 4 just to compete in the city’s annual River Raft Regatta held along the Little Pigeon River and Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies Sunday afternoon.

“We started this 35 years ago, the same year we started the Fourth of July Parade,” said George Hawkins, special events manager. “We always have different volunteers and sponsors, and it really brings families together.”

The event is largely supported by the Gatlinburg Recreation Department.

Participants are welcome to enter anything floatable except for balls and plastic eggs. Prizes are awarded in various categories, including Treasure

(handmade and artistic) and Trash (junk like a plastic bottle or a floatable object with no artistic ability — “pretty much anything you can buy on a shelf that floats,” Hawkins explained). “Most Original, ”“Youngest Contestant” and “Oldest Contestant” are also recognized.

“It’s fun — you can see how many people are lined up and down the river bank,” said Marty Nicely, Gatlinburg Recreation Department director. “The most fun for me is watching the kids get excited.

There’s not another event on the Fourth of July in Tennessee quite like it.”

It took 9-year-old Trey Swinney of Dalton, Ga.

Trey, who was also joined by parents Harry and Kim Swinney and grandmother Brenda Doyle, won “Most Original” in the regatta two years ago.

NEW YORK (AP) — A Japanese eating champion who sat out this year’s Coney Island Fourth of July hot dog contest apparently couldn’t resist the temptation to hotdog afterward.

Competitive eater Joey “Jaws” Chestnut gobbled his way to a fourth consecutive championship Sunday.

But he was suddenly upstaged by the surprise appearance of his biggest rival — six-time champion Takeru Kobayashi, who did not compete but crashed the stage after Chestnut’s win and wrestled with police.

“Let him eat! Let him eat!” the crowd chanted as police handcuffed the world’s No. 3 professional eater, dubbed “The Tsunami.”

The 32-year-old Kobayashi did not eat this year because he refused to sign a contract with Major League Eating — the fast food equivalent of the NFL.

It’s become a tradition for Rob Thomas of Birmingham, Ala., and his friends to celebrate the Fourth in Gatlinburg each year — and to participate in the regatta.

“I had read about it on the Internet a few years ago, so I called George (Hawkins) and asked him more about it,” Thomas said. “I asked him if we could use a motor, but he said, ‘No.’” No matter — his pals Matthew Cargile and Michelle Cargile won first and third place, respectively, in the “Treasure”

As she leaves, Wilson vows to keep up her local connections.

“I intend to maintain friendships with the good folks I have become associated with,” she says.

Additionally, she’ll be taking memories and more with her.

“I actually met my husband through this job,” she says. “I had heard about this park ranger Kent Cave several times but I had never met him. We made a trip up to Big South Fork together to learn about the storytelling festival they have up there and things just kind of clicked.”

She says she’ll also treasure thoughts of accomplishments both she and the Special Events office since she came from the Parks and Recreation Department in Jonesborough. Among those is creation of Saddle Up! and advancement of other city events.

For Wilson, who knew every event from the inside out, the best part was the people.

Wilson told Tourism Director Leon Downey she was leaving about two weeks ago, surprising him in a meeting he expected to focus on Patriot Festival plans. He praised her, pointing to a long list of accomplishments during her tenure.

“She’s seen some big changes and been a part of a lot of those,” Downey said. “She’s been part of some exciting growth.”

Though he’s not pleased to see Wilson go, Downey said he’s thankful for the service she’s provided.

“We certainly wish her well in her new opportunity, but we are going to miss her,” he said. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

NATION/WORLD BRIEFS 234th Independence Day celebrated

NEW YORK (AP) — The nation’s largest fireworks show was to light up the skies over the Hudson River straddling New York and New Jersey, one of hundreds around the country that would bring sizzling ends to a scorching day for much of the U.S. Budget cuts have forced some communities to pull the plug on the pyrotechnics, but the gigantic Macy’s fireworks show will continue on Manhattan’s West Side, where it moved in 2009 after eight years on the East River. And that move has brought with it a change in fortune for businesses, too.

In the city that’s home to the $1,000 umbrella and the $175 cheeseburger, tickets have been sold at $1,450 a pair for one sweet spot to see the fireworks that are free for anyone standing on a nearby street corner or at a window.

Quiet hybrids:

Is the end to their sounds of silence near?

By KEN THOMAS Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON — The age of the silent hybrid may be coming to an end.

Gas-electric hybrids, propelled by electric motors at low speeds, are wellknown for their quiet ride and great mileage. But their silence isn’t always golden.

Some researchers and safety groups say that quiet operation — “hybrid creep� — can pose risks for unsuspecting pedestrians and the blind, who use sound cues.

Advocates for the blind have sought the addition of artificial noises in hybrids for several years, concerned that the expected sales growth of hybrids could lead to more pedestrian fatalities and injuries. Hybrids account for about 2 percent of new car sales each year but auto companies are expected to boost production in advance of tougher fuel efficiency standards this decade. “This is an example of too much of a good thing,� said John Pare, executive director for strategic initiatives with the National Federation of the Blind. “Cars got quieter, that was good. Suddenly they got to be so quiet that it added an element of danger.�

The government’s auto safety agency said in a research report last year that hybrid vehicles are twice as likely to be involved in pedestrian crashes at low speeds compared with cars with conventional engines. The study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration examined circumstances in which the vehicles were slowing down or coming to a stop, backing up or entering or departing a parking space.

More than 4,300 pedestrians were killed in 2008, according to the most recent data available. The government has been researching the safety risks that hybrids and electrics could pose for pedestrians, particularly the blind, along with the elderly and children, for vehicles traveling at 20 mph or less.

When a car is going faster, the friction

between the tire and the road’s surface makes the vehicle louder.

The quiet hybrid phenomenon already has its place in pop culture.

In an episode of NBC’s “The Office,� paper salesman Andy Bernard uses his stealthy blue Toyota Prius to sneak up on Dwight Schrute and pin his bitter rival against a hedge. One concerned co-worker, watching the unfolding drama, says “the Prius is silent if he keeps it under 5 miles per hour.�

Congress is heeding the warnings, adding sound performance requirements for hybrids and electric cars to an auto safety bill being considered after the massive Toyota recalls.

Lawmakers could consider the changes this summer and car companies most likely would have to have the sounds ready to go three years after the release of new government rules.

Automakers helped develop the proposal in Congress and are moving forward with new artificial sounds that will be emitted from electric cars and future hybrid models.

Nissan Motor Corp. has produced distinct sounds for the Leaf, the electric car expected to go on sale this year, when the vehicle accelerates or moves in reverse. When the Leaf speeds up to 20 mph, it automatically will use a soft whirring sound that changes pitch as the car accelerates. When the Leaf backs up, an intermittent bell will ring to warn those nearby.

The Japanese automaker consulted with acoustic psychologists and Hollywood sound designers to find a tone that addresses drivers, pedestrians and the community. “It was kind of like peeling back an onion. The more we worked on it, the more issues came up, the more of a balancing act it became,� said Andy Christensen, a manager with Nissan’s North American Technical Center near Detroit. Nissan plans to use the sounds on the Infiniti M35 hybrid to be released in 2012.

General Motors Co. wanted a more subtle chirp on its Chevrolet Volt, so it chose an alert horn that lets the driver warn an unknowing bystander.

“We didn’t want to blast the horn at them and figuratively smack the people in the nose,� said Doug Moore, a vehicle performance engineer for the Volt project. “We just wanted to tap them on the shoulder and say, ’Hey I’m here.�’ Other automakers are hard at work, too.

Toyota Motor Corp., which makes the top-selling Prius hybrid, is studying artificial sounds for hybrids when the vehicle is propelled by its electric motor at low speeds. Ford Motor Co. is working to bring external sounds to future hybrids and electrics, including its Focus electric car, expected in 2011, and a next-generation hybrid and plugin hybrid vehicle planned for 2012.

Nancy Gioia, Ford’s director of global electrification, said car companies should consider standardizing tones from future hybrids and electrics to avoid a cacophony of confusion on the streets. “It can’t be like cell phones where we all select our own sound and we tune out everybody else’s but our own,�

Gioia said.

Some green car advocates have questioned the need for the extra tones and noted that the requirement could add more noise to neighborhoods. Paul Scott, vice president of Plug In America, said the sounds could help under certain circumstances, but drivers should have the right to activate the tones. “After hearing how innocuous the Nissan Leaf sound is, maybe it’ll be a minor irritant for us, but I suspect people will tire of it eventually and seek ways to disable the noise,� Scott said in an e-mail from Japan, where he was test-driving the car.

Les Blomberg, who is the founder of the Noise Pollution Clearinghouse, said reducing noise from the loudest vehicles, such as trucks, buses and motorcycles, would increase the ability of pedestrians to detect sound.

Adding sounds to hybrids, however, would simply enhance noise pollution and make it more difficult to hear an individual vehicle in traffic.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Interim president Bronislaw Komorowski appeared to have held off a last-minute surge from the identical twin brother of the late president, who died in an April plane crash that shocked the country and forced Sunday’s early election.

Exit polls showed Komorowski with a slight edge over Jaroslaw Kaczynski, who essentially conceded defeat in the presidential run-off by declaring before supporters, “I congratulate the winner.�

A poll released Sunday by the TNS OBOP institute predicted Komorowski winning 53.1 percent of the vote, and Kaczynski winning 46.9 percent. A separate poll, by Millward Brown SMG/KRC, shows Komorowski with nearly 52 percent and Kaczynski with just over 48 percent.

Petraeus: ‘We are in this to win’

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — “We are in this to win,� Gen. David Petraeus said Sunday as he took the reins of an Afghan war effort troubled by waning support, an emboldened enemy, government corruption and a looming commitment to withdraw troops even with no sign of violence easing.

Petraeus, who pioneered the counterinsurgency strategy he now oversees in Afghanistan, has just months to show progress in turning back insurgents and convince both the Afghan people and neighboring countries that the U.S. is committed to preventing the country from again becoming a haven for al-Qaida and its terrorist allies.

Biden urges fast, peaceful transition

BAGHDAD (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden urged rival Iraqi politicians Sunday to end months of delays and select new leaders for their wobbly democracy, predicting a peaceful transition of power even as suicide bombers struck government centers in two major cities.

The attacks in Mosul and Ramadi underscored persistent fears that insurgents will exploit Iraq’s political uncertainty to stoke widespread sectarian violence. Four people were killed and 25 injured in the two blasts that occurred hundreds of miles apart.

The twin explosions on the Fourth of July illustrated the vexing nature of the U.S. involvement in Iraq and its efforts to nudge the country toward stability and democracy.

Winds, choppy seas delay cleanup

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Cleanup crews across the Gulf of Mexico surveyed damage done by last week’s hurricane while contending Sunday with choppy seas that idled many of the boats dedicated to keeping oil from hitting vulnerable beaches and marshes.

Offshore skimming vessels were able to operate in Louisiana waters, but not off the coasts of Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, officials said.

Birds using ash ponds to nest, lay eggs MEMPHIS (AP) — An endangered bird species has taken an odd turn, or in this case an odd tern, in finding a place to nest.

Dozens of interior least terns have taken to using the ash ponds at the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Allen Fossil Plant in southwest Memphis to lay eggs while dining on minnows, rearing their young and flying freely.

TVA environmental program administrator David Thorpe told The Memphis Commercial-Appeal that the Allen plant’s ash pond complex, about a mile east

of the Mississippi and just off McKellar Lake, seems to be providing the birds with most of their requirements.

The terns, which are on the federal endangered list because their natural habitat along many rivers has been degraded by dams and other alterations, need wide-open surfaces for nests and nearby water for food.

“They’ll fly right over us they’re checking us out,” Thorpe said.

Least terns in this area usually set up their nests on Mississippi River sand

bars that get exposed as the water drops in the summer.

But this year, unusually high water levels have covered up sandbars, forcing the terns to look elsewhere.

The pond complex, where fly ash from coal-burning generating units settles after being discharged in a slurry mixture, has unvegetated areas for nests and a pond flush with minnows.

“They’re really taking a liking to our ash pond,” said Doug Keeling, manager of the Allen plant.

TVA has faced criticism for how it handles ash ponds.

The complaints peaked after a massive ash spill in December 2008 at its Kingston, Tenn., plant caused extensive environmental damage.

Local bird watchers first noticed the terns at the Allen ponds more than a month ago. Keeling said the agency has been trying to ensure plant operations don’t harm the nests.

And, that has proven to be a bit of a task. TVA was just about to return to service a generating unit that had undergone maintenance when the nests were discovered.

“The Twighlight Saga”

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” is waning at the box office but still has gotten off to a blockbuster start with $161 million in its first five days.

The third chapter in the vampire romance fell off sharply after debuting last Wednesday with $68.5 million. That was the second-best openingday haul ever, behind its predecessor, last year’s “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” which opened with $72.7 million.

From Friday to Sunday, “Eclipse” took in $69 million, a fraction more than it managed just on opening day.

Its total through Sunday came in well short of the $200 million mark set last year by “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,”

commentary

Tour of attraction memorable What does this mean to you? Probably not much, unless you’re a sailor or are acquainted with nautical measurement.

Well, the location was the North Atlantic Ocean, about 365 miles southsoutheast of Newfoundland and 800 miles east of Boston.

A very famous ship — no, the most famous ship — in naval history, sank there. The R.M.S. Titanic went down at this location on the above date at 2:20 a.m. on a cold, dark night, taking with it some 1500 people to a watery grave. It settled on the ocean bottom, 12,460 feet down, broken into two pieces about 1970 feet apart from bow to stern.

I had the pleasure to meet several people connected with the Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge recently: John Joslyn and his lovely wife, Mary KelloggJoslyn. They are the owners of the Pigeon Forge attraction and the one in Branson, Mo. Mrs. Joslyn gave me some amazing facts concerning the exhibit and the value of the artifacts on display. They have collected around 400 authentic pieces ranging from small items of jewerly and keys, to deck chairs and a life vest. The vest, by the way is valued at $1 million.

No artifact from the Titanic can be taken directly from the ship, but must have been found outside of the ship on the ocean bottom or have left the Titanic with surviving passengers back in 1912.

The ship is to be left as a final resting place of the dead and to be hallowed as such.

John Joslyn was gracious to allow me to interview him after he stood out in the hot sun with a crew from WBIR in Knoxville. I was impressed with the fact that he actually descended down to the Titanic site to get a first-hand look at this tragic ship. He told me it took 2 1/2 hours to descend, and he spent eight hours down there observing. He has great passion for the work he does.

I also had a personal tour with Lowell Lytle, who portrays Edward Smith, the captain of that ill-fated voyage. Lytle does a remarkable job of playing his part and entertaining the guests that tour the exhibit.

Lytle as Capt. Smith meets each group of visitors at the entrance as they start their tours, and has a running conversation with them while in character. In one instance he asked a woman up in the front, “Madam, have you been sprayed for lice? Judging by the way most of you look, you have to be third-class passengers.” This got the group laughing and helped them acclimate to the tour ahead.

Lytle had the chance to descend to the Titanic back in 2000, for a look around the debris field. He had been invited to ride along in a Russian deep-sea submersible for his 11-hour stay on the bottom.

Lytle and the Joslyn family were privileged to meet two the survivors of the Titanic: Edith Haisman and Millvina Dean. Mrs. Haisman died in 1997 at 100, and Mrs. Dean in 2009 at age 97. Think about that, just last year there was still a survivor alive — now they are all gone.

All 706 surviving passengers died through the years of various causes.

There is so much to say about the whole Titanic episode that I really don’t know what to leave out. You could fill up the whole newspaper with nothing but Titanic stories and events, and I’m trying to do it in this small column. I’m trying to do it justice and hope it is acceptable.

Editorial

In the running

It’s Gatlinburg vs. Greeneville for Arrowmont’s future And then there were two. With Knoxville out of the running, Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts has narrowed its site selection options to Greeneville and Gatlinburg.

A lot of discussion and negotiation will be going on behind closed doors over the next five or six weeks, as the school gets close to making a decision about its future. Will it stay put in downtown Gatlinburg, or pack up and head to Greeneville, where philanthropist Scott Niswonger has reportedly offered to give Arrowmont 60 acres of land on which to build a new campus.

That’s awfully enticing.

No matter what anybody says publicly, Arrowmont would prefer to stay where it is. It has the land, the buildings, the history, the brand — all of

that historically connected to one place and one city. To start over will require enormous amounts of money and uproot employees. However, the school is right to consider other options if Gatlinburg can’t offer the kind of sustainable financial assistance the school needs.

Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women, which owns the land, has made it clear Arrowmont doesn’t figure into its plans. The fraternity wants to shift focus to other endeavors. No matter the long connection of Arrowmont and Pi Beta Phi, the fraternity sees the downtown Gatlinburg land in terms of money it could make from selling it, not what it means to the group’s history to hang on to it and assist it. That’s the fraternity’s choice.

Arrowmont must survive, whether

where it is or somewhere else. It is world renown for its classes, its nurturing of art and its creativity.

Sixty acres of free land — that’s a nice gift. Arrowmont doesn’t depend upon location as much as some attractions might. It can be stuck outside of Greeneville or away from other activity, because those who visit usually don’t leave the campus much. But starting over? That’s a tall order with inherent risks.

Gatlinburg remains in the running, but a number of locals will need to step up and make clear what Arrowmont can expect by staying. Chiefly, how can the school buy the land on which it sits? And what source of money can it expect to sustain it into the future? Big questions, and just a few weeks to nail it down.

Youths’ work at Cades Clove a Slice of Heaven (pizza) The Mountain Press every other Monday offers an eclectic mix of newsy tidbits, anecdotes and oneliners: Daniel Jockell, owner of Slice of Heaven Pizzeria in PIgeon Forge, was heartened when some 35 young people from the Episcopal Diocese of East Tennessee came into his eatery last week. He learned they had spent two days in Cades Cove clearing brush, removing graffiti and improving trails. They came in for ice cream and, after learning their story, Jockell was so moved he gave the treats to them for half price. The kids asked him to pose with them for a photo in front of his restaurant. The group was part of some 134 young people wno came to Sevier County for the volunteer work. “They restored my faith in humanity,” Jockell said.”I pray there could be more people like them.” ...

The Hallmark Channel special about Dollywood aired twice on July 3 but will air several more times over the coming weeks, and is sure to be shown again into the future. ...

Mauer top vote-getter; five Braves are all-stars

By HOWIE RUMBERG AP Sports Writer NEW YORK — In the year of the pitcher, no-hit aces Ubaldo Jimenez and Roy Halladay lead a formidable National League All-Star staff.

Rookie sensation Stephen Strasburg will have to wait at least another season before he gets the nod.

AL MVP catcher Joe Mauer was announced Sunday by Major League baseball as the fans’ top choice for the July 13th All-Star game in Anaheim, Calif. Albert Pujols earned the most votes in the National League.

Free agent fireworks begin in the NBA NEW YORK (AP) — From Cleveland to Chicago, South Florida to the New York area, it was a mostly quiet Fourth of July in the NBA. The real fireworks could come next week.

With LeBron James and other big names taking time to ponder their futures, the free agent market was in many ways on hold for the holiday — though Joe Johnson did agree to a maximum contract to stay in Atlanta.

Once the others reach their conclusions, things will start to heat up again.

“I’m sure everyone is ready to get a decision going,” Dwyane Wade told Chicago’s NBC-Channel 5.

Wade said he planned to use the weekend to think after meeting twice with the Bulls, plus getting visits from the Knicks and Nets. He’s scheduled to be at a charity function outside Miami on Tuesday, but it would be surprising if he used that event to announce his plans, because it’s believed he will not have had his formal sitdown with Heat present Pat Riley until later in the week.

James was expected to spend the holiday relaxing at his Bath, Ohio, home with family and friends. It will be a chance to catch his breath after a whirlwind three days during which six teams gave him reasons why he should continue his career wearing a new No. 6 jersey in their colors.

Not surprisingly, the Cavaliers’ pitch focused on his allegiance and loyalty to home, and included a video presentation that included highlights from James’ seven seasons in Cleveland and testimonials from fans asking him to stay in Northeast Ohio. The team posted a portion of the video on its website on Sunday.

Beyond his decision, James has a busy week ahead. He is hosting a Nike camp at Akron University, where he recently accepted his second straight MVP award and was honored by the city with a day of appreciation in an outdoor event at the school’s football stadium.

It’s possible James could announce his decision in his hometown during or following the camp, which will feature some of the nation’s top high school players.

Besides the Cavs, the other teams anticipating word from James are Chicago, Miami, New Jersey, New York and the Los Angeles Clippers. Some of them spent the past two seasons clearing around $30 million of salary cap space so they could afford to sign James and another marquee free agent.

In the closest voting, the Mets’ David Wright overtook the Phillies’ Placido Polanco in the final week to win the NL starting third baseman spot.

Each squad still has one more spot to fill in their 34-man rosters. Fans will make the decision, choosing from a list of five candidates in each league in an Internet runoff.

Five Atlanta Braves were selected: outfielder Jason Heyward, infielders Martin Prado and Omar Infante, catcher Brian McCann and pitcher Tim Hudson Strasburg’s 100 mph

fastball has captivated fans around baseball since the Washington Nationals called the right-hander up June 8, but NL manager Charlie Manuel would like to see 21-year-old settle into his role as an ace before making the Midsummer Classic.

“He got quite a bit of consideration,” Philadelphia’s Manuel told TBS during the selection show. “He is going be an All-Star for a long time.

What does he have, five starts?

I just felt there are other guys who have started 18 to 20 games. I just felt leave him alone and let him get used to the major league level.”

Halladay pitched a perfect game in his first season with the Phillies, and Jimenez had one of the four no-hitters this year and is off to a remarkable 14-1 start with a 2.27 ERA for the Colorado Rockies.

Halladay’s teammate Chase Utley was voted as the starting second baseman for the NL, but he is out with an injured right thumb. He will be replaced in the lineup by Prado.

Colorado’s injured shortstop Troy Tulowitzki was chosen as a reserve by his peers.

His spot will be taken by the Mets’ Jose Reyes.

The other NL starters are:

Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina; Marlins shortstop Hanley Ramirez; and Milwaukee’s Ryan Braun, Los Angeles’ Andre Ethier and Atlanta’s Heyward in the outfield.

In the American League, Mauer is joined by Minnesota Twins teammate Justin Morneau, the first baseman.

The other AL starters: Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano and shortstop Derek Jeter; Tampa Bay third baseman Evan Longoria; Texas designated hitter Vladimir Guerrero; and Texas’ Josh Hamilton, Seattle’s Ichiro Suzuki and

No. 8 feels great

Tampa Bay’s Carl Crawford in the outfield.

The World Series champion New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox have a leading six All-Stars each, but Boston second baseman Dustin Pedroia and catcher Victor Martinez are out with injuries.

Yankees manager Joe Girardi made several difficult decisions in finalizing the AL squad. He left off Andy Pettitte and took teammate CC Sabathia, both 10-game winners, and selected slugger Alex Rodriguez, who only has 12 homers but 61 RBIs.

Ex-Volunteer Chism released

by New Jersey KNOXVILLE (AP) — Former Tennessee basketball standout Wayne Chism has been dropped from the New Jersey Nets summer league team.

Chism was one of 18 players trying to make the roster over two days of practices. Chism’s agent, Jared Karnes, says Chism will fly to Sacremento later this week for two days with the Kings in an attempt to catch on with their Las Vegas summer league team.

The Nets dropped Chism on Saturday.

Rafael Nadal lies on the ground after defeating Tomas Berdych in the men’s singles final on the Centre Court at the All England Lawn Tennis Championships at Wimbledon on Sunday.

Nadal adds second Wimbledon to list of Grand Slam titles

By STEPHEN WILSON AP Sports Writer WIMBLEDON, England — A year after knee problems prevented him from defending the title, Rafael Nadal has the Wimbledon trophy back in his hands.

The top-ranked Spaniard swept 12th-seeded Tomas Berdych 6-3, 7-5, 6-4 on Sunday to reclaim the championship at the All England Club, winning his second Wimbledon title and eighth Grand Slam crown.

Nadal broke the Czech four times and never lost serve in 15 service games, winning in 2 hours, 13 minutes. He extended his record to 5-0 in his last five major finals and reinforced his current status as the No. 1 player in the game.

Nadal “retained” the title he first won here in 2008, when he beat Roger Federer in an epic five-set final after losing to the Swiss star in the previous two finals.

Last year, hobbled by tendinitis in both knees, Nadal stayed at home and watched on television as Federer took advantage of the Spaniard’s absence to win his sixth Wimbledon.

“It was probably one of the toughest moments in my career,” Nadal said after accepting the winner’s trophy Sunday from the Duke of Kent.

But Nadal came back strongly this year and has now won 14 straight matches at Wimbledon.

“After not an easy year for me, to be back at my favorite tournament of the world and to play well another time, and not only play well (but) to finish with the trophy, is amazing for me,” he said.

After ripping a crosscourt forehand passing shot on match point, Nadal collapsed on his back on the turf at the baseline and covered his face with his hands. After congratulating Berdych, Nadal leapt out of his chair and did a front somersault on the grass, rising to his feet with both fists clenched.

It’s the second time Nadal has won the French Open and Wimbledon back-to-back, making the tough transition from clay to grass. Until he and Federer accomplished the

Nadal kisses the trophy after winning his eighth Grand Slam title. feat for the last three years, the last man to do it was Bjorn Borg in 1980.

“If you really want to play well on one surface and you are a good player, I think in the end you are going to find a way,” Nadal said. “I move very well on this court and that’s a very important part of the game.”

With eight Grand Slam titles, Nadal joins a list of greats that includes Andre Agassi, Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl, Fred Perry and Ken Rosewall. He also has five French Open championships and one Australian Open title.

All that’s missing for a career Grand Slam is the U.S. Open title.

“For sure the U.S. Open is going to be one of my goals for the rest of my career,” Nadal said. “But right now (my goal) is to enjoy the beach, fishing, golf, friends, party, and Mallorca.”

Nadal posed with the trophy in the clubhouse next to the green board with his name already etched as the 2010 winner. He cradled the trophy under his left arm as he signed autographs outside the members’ entrance, where hundreds of fans gathered to see him.

Nadal is the first Spanish man

to win Wimbledon twice. Manolo Santana took the title in 1966.

“For the Spanish players for the last 40 years it was very difficult to play here,” Nadal said. “We are doing better right now. We are very satisfied for that.”

In a match short on drama and spectacular points, played in windy conditions, Nadal beat Berdych for the seventh straight time — a span covering 17 consecutive sets.

Berdych was playing in his first Grand Slam final and was the first Czech to reach the Wimbledon final since Ivan Lendl in 1987. He had beaten top-seeded Federer and No. 3 Novak Djokovic en route to the final, but couldn’t find a way to take out the second-seeded Nadal as well.

Nadal won all the big points against the 24-year-old Czech, who failed to convert any of his four break points.

“He was strong,” Berdych said. “I think the biggest difference between us was that when he got a chance, he just took it. He gave me one (break point) in the second set, one in the third set, and none of them I can bring to my side and just make a break. That just shows how strong he is.”

Ex-UT receiver is transferring to MTSU MURFREESBORO (AP) — Former University of Tennessee wide receiver Todd Campbell says he’s transferring to Middle Tennessee State and should suit up this season.

Campbell, a 6-foot, 188-pounder, played three games the past two seasons at UT and did not make a reception.

Campbell is graduating after three years, so he can play immediately without sitting out a season, which is required by NCAA rule of undergraduate transfers.

Campbell has two years of eligibility remaining. He can play for the Blue Raiders in the 2010 season, pending NCAA approval and acceptance to MTSU graduate school.

Campbell signed with Tennessee in 2007 under Coach Phillip Fulmer.

He would be one of two UT transfers to play for MTSU this season.

Lineman Preston Bailey is on MTSU’s offensive line.

Diamondbacks send Dontrelle packing PHOENIX (AP) — The Dontrelle Willis experiment is over for the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The team designated the big left-hander for assignment Sunday and recalled young left-handed reliever Jordan Norberto from Triple-A Reno.

In his brief time with Arizona, Willis had the same control problems that plagued him in Detroit.

The Diamondbacks acquired Willis from the Tigers on June 1 for righthander Billy Buckner, with Detroit picking up most of the pitcher’s $12 million salary. In six games with Arizona, five as a starter, Willis was 1-1 with a 6.85 ERA.

Armstrong avoids trouble; Petacchi wins first stage

Harvick throws cautions to the wind

Several late yellow flags can’t stop RCR driver from continuing Daytona dominance

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Kevin Harvick lined up next to his Richard Childress Racing teammate for a two-lap sprint to the finish at Daytona International Speedway.

He and Clint Bowyer didn’t bother to talk strategy. “It was every man for himself at that point,�

Harvick said.

The Sprint Cup points leader sailed to his second win of the season, leading a strong RCR contingent in a wild night of racing at Daytona. There were a record 18 leaders, 47 lead changes, a 20-car accident and numerous angry drivers when it was over.

Harvick earned high praise from team owner Childress, who compared his driver to the late Dale Earnhardt, considered one of the best restrictorplate racers in NASCAR history. Harvick also won at Talladega in April, and

finished seventh in the season-opening Daytona 500. “Kevin’s just becoming one of these guys, when it’s restrictor-plate racing, he’s kind of like Dale Sr. — you knew he was going to be a factor in it,� Childress said.

Harvick, who took over Earnhardt’s team following The Intimidators fatal accident on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500, now has eight top10 finishes in 19 starts at Daytona. He also won the 2007 Daytona 500. “This has been a great place for us,� Harvick said. “Daytona has been one of those magical places for us ever since we started coming here.�

Harvick and his RCR teammates, Bowyer and Jeff Burton, were poised to run away with the race before several late cautions interfered with a potential Chevrolet sweep.

A three-car accident

moments before Bowyer took the white flag set up NASCAR’s version of overtime, and Bowyer and Harvick had to restart side-by-side for the final two-lap sprint. Harvick wasted no time sliding into the lead, while Bowyer got little help from behind as Kasey Kahne and Jeff Gordon swapped spots on the restart.

It left Bowyer all alone, and he slipped back into traffic and ultimately spun off the track. Harvick had clear sailing to the checkered flag. “That really wasn’t the situation that we wanted to be in,� said Harvick, also the winner at Talladega in April. “I wanted to be behind him and be able to push him because it was looking pretty good for us, then that caution came out and we had to split up because of the double-file restarts. I helped him as much as I could,

then we got split up and (Kahne and Gordon) split (Bowyer) and then that was it.�

Kahne was second in a Ford, followed by Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Burton in Chevrolets. “If you come home with a top five at a restrictorplate race, you ought to skip all the way home,�

Burton said.

Earnhardt, who wasn’t good most of the race, seemingly lucked into the top-five finish but it was enough to move him into eligibility for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. He’s 11th in the standings.

The start of the race was delayed almost 90 minutes by rain, and a 19-car accident with 12 laps to go stopped the action another 20 minutes.

Several cars crash and burn during a wreck in the final laps of the Coke Zero 400 auto race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla., early Sunday morning.

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) — Lance Armstrong avoided trouble in the crash-marred first stage of the Tour de France won Sunday by Italy’s Alessandro Petacchi when other top sprinters fell.

Three crashes tangled up riders in the last few miles, including a pileup within the last half-mile. Race leader Fabian Cancellara went down, and defending champion Alberto Contador scraped a leg against another bike when he hit his brakes. Both men finished the stage with minor bumps and scrapes. “Total mayhem,� Armstrong said, who finished fifth, noting that several of his RadioShack teammates were tangled up in the spills. The seven-time Tour champion was delayed on the crash-clogged road, but didn’t get caught in any of the pileups and remained fourth behind race leader Cancellara.

The overall standings didn’t change after the 139mile run under sunny skies and past big roadside crowds through flat Belgian and Dutch lowlands from Rotterdam to Brussels.

Tony Martin remained 10 seconds behind Cancellara, winner of Saturday’s prologue, and Britain’s David Millar was in third, 20 seconds off the pace. Armstrong was another 2 seconds back and Contador was sixth, 5 seconds behind his American rival. “Typical first stage: Everybody wants to be in the front, everybody nervous for crashes,� Armstrong said, noting that a huge fan turnout on the roadsides was both good and bad.

Advice

Mom can only do so much to help feuding daughters mend relationship

Zits

Blondie

Baby Blues

Beetle Bailey

Dear Annie: I have three daughters, all in their 40s and married with children. The problem is, the two oldest are not speaking to each other. They had a feud nine years ago when “Stefani” got married, and she and her older sister, “Jessica,” had some disagreement at the wedding. Quite honestly, I am not sure what happened.

Although the rift was repaired, things remained cool. When babies were born, everything at least seemed civil. Then, two years ago, Stefani and Jessica had a contentious phone call and the relationship deteriorated.

None of us lives in the same area, but we communicate via phone calls, e-mails and visits. I work at a hospice and try to make my girls understand that life is short and they shouldn’t hold grudges against loved ones. My father refused to communicate with his siblings, and it took 50 years and a trip to the doctor for the reality of those lost years to hit him.

Jessica did e-mail Stefani to apologize for her behavior that day on the phone, but Stefani will not respond or discuss it. I am trying to mediate. I was going to write each of them the same letter to explain how this erodes family relationships and that they need to teach their children how to resolve conflict. My youngest daughter has a good relationship with both sisters and does not want to take sides.

Should I write the letters? Or do I leave it be and hope they see this in the newspaper, recognize themselves and realize they need to fix things? --

Concerned Mom Dear Mom: Some siblings simply rub each other the wrong way, and their arguments are never-ending. In a healthy relationship, siblings tolerate each other’s personalities. In less forgiving circumstances, there are rifts and estrangements. Please continue to encourage them to stay in touch so their children will know their cousins and so that they will have the opportunity to mend fences. If you think you can do that in a letter, go ahead. But don’t expect too much. We hope there will be time enough to fix this.

Dear Annie: My wife is a 50-year-old mother of three grown children, and she is a self-mutilator. Right now, she’s in the hospital for the third time.

Our family does not understand this disease, and we need help finding a support group so we can figure out why she does this and how we can help her. Please answer soon, as her life, not to mention our marriage, may depend on it. -- San Pedro, Calif.

Dear San Pedro: Selfmutilation is the way your wife deals with emotional pain. She does not know how to express difficult emotions and cuts because it is a way to find relief, albeit temporarily.

She needs to talk about the triggers that lead to cutting and find alternative methods of dealing with stress and pain. Talk to your wife’s doctor, and ask for a referral to a

t o d ay ’ s p u z z l e

Garfield

For Better Or Worse

Tina’s Groove

therapist who deals with self-mutilation. We also recommend a 12-step support group at selfmutilatorsanonymous.org.

Dear Annie: I felt compelled to write regarding “Arizona,” whose husband views online porn while driving.

When is this madness going to stop? Drive your car, man!

This is such a common practice in today’s world and is so very serious, with devastating consequences.

Something needs to be done. Everyone survived before cell phones. We need attention brought to this issue. Your response should have addressed that. -- No Phoning in Cars Dear No: “Arizona” addressed it in her letter, and we didn’t feel it was necessary to do so again, especially when the bigger picture was that Hubby could be cheating.

But of course, no one should be checking out videos while driving. Or texting. Or doing anything else that distracts them from maneuvering a heavy, wheeled, moving object in traffic. We’re happy to repeat the warning.
