2 children dead, 1 critically injured in trailer fire BY THOMAS MORIARTY The World
By Thomas Moriarty, The World
Oregon State Police arson investigators change out of protective suits after examining a trailer gutted by a fire that killed two people early Wednesday morning at Rivers Edge RV park in Coquille.
COQUILLE — Tragedy struck early Wednesday morning when a fire ripped through a trailer at a Coquille RV park, claiming the lives of two young boys. According to Coos County District Attorney Paul Frasier, the preliminary determination is that 13-year-old Christopher Thorp and his 8-year-old brother Grayson died of smoke inhalation. The boys had been spending the night with their grandmother, 59year-old Virginia Jennings, in her travel trailer at Rivers Edge RV park off state Highway 42. Another one of Jennings’ grandchildren, 7-yearold Caden Teddleton of Coquille, was also staying in the trailer. About 1:16 a.m., dispatchers took a report of a fire at the loca-

tion. First responders found the trailer fully engulfed in flames. Jennings had managed to escape, and Caden was pulled from the trailer by neighbors before the fire grew out of control. Christopher and Grayson never made it out. Frasier was called out shortly after firefighters discovered their bodies. Standing by a police cordon after emergency personnel removed the boys’ remains from the trailer, the veteran prosecutor didn’t mince words. “It’s ugly,” Frasier said. Within hours, the number of investigating agencies grew to include the Coos County Medical Examiner’s Office, Myrtle Point Police Department and Coos Bay Police Department, along with Oregon State Police and an investi-
gator from the State Fire Marshal’s Office. As of Wednesday afternoon, Caden remained in critical condition in the burn unit of Portland’s Legacy Emanuel Hospital. Jennings was treated and released at Coquille Valley Hospital. State arson investigators spent most of the morning in protective suits, sifting through debris inside the trailer. Frasier said their presence has been requested “in an abundance of caution,” but the cause of the fire is still under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call the Coquille Police Department at 541-396-2114.

Seeing green
BY TIM NOVOTNY The World
COOS BAY — Within Rotary International, a global service organization, are local Rotary clubs that serve their communities while also raising funds for projects all over the world. They fund those projects through contributions to the Rotary Foundation. Created in 1917 for the purpose of doing good in the world, Rotary officials say the Foundation is the financial engine that makes Rotary work. This week the Coos Bay-North Bend Rotary Club, one of several Rotary clubs on the South Coast, raised eyebrows within the organization by contributing $26,000 just this past year alone. Dell Gray, a past district governor within Rotary, made the trip over from Roseburg to help underscore the significance of that donation. “I have been in Rotary since 1972, and in all that time I have never, ever seen a club achieve this level of contributions to the Rotary Foundation,” Gray said. After a Rotarian contributes $1,000 to the Foundation they earn the title of Paul Harris Fellow. Harris was the Chicago attorney who created Rotary back in 1905. Every $1,000 contribution beyond that is also commemorated within the organization.

Fewer pot measures in Oregon could improve chances
Speaker Boehner says House plans to sue Obama BY DAVID ESPO The Associated Press
BY CHAD GARLAND The Associated Press
“The prospects for
SALEM — With the deadline looming to submit petition signatures to get measures on Oregon’s November ballot, two marijuana-legalization initiatives seem unlikely to make the cut, which could improve the odds for the one that remains. During the last several months, pot-legalization advocates in Oregon have been collecting signatures to put up to three measures before voters. But the sponsor behind two of those measures said last week there’s little hope his proposals will collect the signatures needed to make the ballot by the July 3 deadline. “There’s no way that we could possibly qualify,” Paul Stanford,
the measure increase with the idea that there’s only going to be one of them on the ballot.”

Port, Jordan Cove reach agreement for channel modifications COOS BAY — The Jordan Cove Energy Project has agreed to help pay for an Oregon International Port of Coos Bay channel modification project. Port commissioners unanimously approved the reimbursement agreement with Jordan Cove at their Tuesday meeting. The Coos Bay Channel Modification Project includes widening and deepening of the federal deep-draft navigation channel in lower Coos Bay. These changes were first suggested seven years ago, after private sector marine terminal developers spoke with Port staff about new marine terminal capacity on the North Spit. The Port worked with the developers and the state to fund the feasibility study/environmental impact statement section of the project. The Jordan Cove liquefied natural gas export terminal does not require channel modifications, but “a deeper, wider channel will benefit a variety of terminal development projects on the North Spit, as well as cargo facilities in upper Coos Bay,” according to the Port.

Deepening and widening the channel will increase maritime commerce and improve vessel traffic management and navigation safety, according to the Port. The Port is working with engineering firm David Evans & Associates Inc. on the EIS. Commissioners approved a nearly $3.5 million addendum to the agreement Tuesday night. All phases of the channel project have been conducted under Section 203, and now section 204, of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 under the authority of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works and the guidance of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

We need a trusted financial partner Our view Our Community Enhancement Plan should use the expertise of a foundation like Oregon Community Foundation.
What do you think? The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.
On Tuesday, we discussed the Oregon Community Foundation — now celebrating its 40th anniversary — and its role as a philanthropic leader in the Pacific Northwest. Today, we want to take that discussion a step further. We are currently involved in crafting what’s being called the Community Enhancement Plan. It’s purpose is to effectively manage the windfall revenues expected to impact the Bay Area should the Jordan Cove Energy Project build its planned liquefied natural gas export plant on the North Spit of Coos Bay. The plan calls for taxing entities to agree to grant the company a long-term tax
exemption in exchange for steady, up front payments. It is further envisioned that these payments would become contributions made to nonprofit organizations established by the cities of Coos Bay and North Bend, Coos County and the Oregon International Port of Coos Bay. One such nonprofit has already been created — the South Coast Community Foundation. It’s stated purpose has been to distribute half the contributions immediately to educational efforts and establish a permanent endowment with the rest. Creating such an endowment would require careful vetting and consideration. The entity we would trust
those funds to would have to be expert at managing longterm assets and have a proven track record of producing reliable, long-term returns on investment. And we’d expect to find such a fund manager that could provide that service in a cost-effective manner. We think such a trusted fund manager exists, also here in our backyard — the Oregon Community Foundation. The foundation at least provides a model for what we should be looking for in a fund manager. With $1.6 billion in assets, it’s one of the top 10 community foundations in the country. It has a history of growth and prudent management.
But what makes the foundation significant is the way it operates. Paid staff is minimal. There are hundreds of professionals who volunteer their time — to vet grant applications and make grant recommendations, as well as monitor the foundation’s assets. And the foundation is apolitical, and its mission is based on community needs. Isn’t that what we’d want in a fund manager? Unbeholden to political pressures, scrupulous fiscal conduct and, essentially, one of our neighbors. As our leaders go forward with the CEP, we would strongly urge them to consider seeking the foundation’s help.
Still another Iraq war Twice this nation has gone to war with Iraq. We poured at least $21 billion into reconstruction, and billions more into military training and equipment for the Iraqi army. We had a civilian police force training program touted as the “most ambitious” since the Marshall Plan, the U.S. aid program that rescued Europe after World War II. A month ago, 800 members of the terrorist organization ISIL, plus associated groups, took Iraq’s second largest city, Mosul. The Iraqi army units of 30,000 men guarding Mosul panicked. Senior officers threw down their arms, stripped off their gear in the streets and ran. The army followed. Enter ISIL. It has been described by Ryan Crocker, our former ambassador to Iraq, as “al-Qaida on steroids.” That gives them too much credit, I believe. Thickheaded on steroids, rather. Who are they? I turned to published backgrounders by scholars and terrorist experts: Charles Lister, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Doha Center in Qatar, and Aaron Zelin, a fellow at the Washington Institute for DONNA Near East Policy. ISIL is a fanatical BRAZILE organization that, until Columnist February, was “al-Qaida in Iraq” until al-Qaida kicked them out — for extremism. ISIL cuts off the hands of thieves. Until recently, ISIL had an automatic execution policy for Muslims who differ with their interpretation of Islam. They literally use crucifixion for some executions. The group will fight alongside people with whom they disagree, but they will never let them rule with them.“ISIL doesn’t submit to the will of anyone — not even al-Qaida for that matter,” Zelin says. This is keenly important because the forces now sweeping across Iraq are composed of multiple groups. Lister says it is a de facto Sunni uprising. Hassan Hassan, a research associate with the Delma Institute in Abu Dhabi, independently says the same. To gain the cooperation of the Sunnis and some former Baathists (Saddam Hussein’s former ruling party), ISIL adopted a “soft” approach recently. They let apostates repent rather than kill them on the spot. Foreign policy analysts are near unanimous that it was President Maliki’s Shiite government’s suppression of Sunnis and Kurds that facilitated and fostered ISIL and its partners — groups that are to ISIS what male mates are to black widow spiders. ISIL hopes to fan Shiite-Sunni divisions across the Middle East. So this begs the question, what role should the U.S. play in resolving this crisis? Republican members of Congress who are Iraq War veterans are urging caution in redeploying American troops. Retired Gen. David Petraeus, the former U.S commander in Iraq, says the U.S. cannot become the Shiites’ air force against the Sunnis. He’s right. President Obama is seeking change that will heal the fracture ISIL has exploited. He’s demanding a new government without Maliki as a condition. Clearly Iran will oppose such an arrangement. But what are the other options It takes nerves of steel while under immense pressure to require that Iraq make necessary political changes to heal the rifts created by the lack of political leadership in easing sectarian strife. Without putting American troops in harm’s way again, the president announced that he would be sending 300 military advisers to help the Iraqi security forces address the threat of ISIL. The last thing the U.S. should do is to go back to war in Iraq. Let’s see if the Iraqis can put down the revolution they started by alienating their own people.
Letters to the Editor Theater is Coos Bay success Coos Bay has something to teach other Oregon communities about not throwing in the towel, the power of community volunteers and the value of its historic places. In 2011, the beloved Egyptian Theatre was officially listed as one of Oregon’s most endangered places by Restore Oregon. City leaders reached out to us for support after the building was deemed structurally deficient and unsuitable for occupancy. An initial rehabilitation estimate of $3.7 million made saving the theater seem unlikely, even for the most committed supporters. But vision and planning overpowered skepticism and dire predictions. Referrals were made to consultant George Kramer, who debunked the $3.7 million figure. Local leaders assembled a
strategic plan. The Egyptian Theatre Preservation Association rallied a small army for fundraising, and Restore Oregon provided a seed grant for a market feasibility study to get the ball rolling. This in turn generated more grant funding, and the momentum grew from there. Almost anywhere we went across the state, when we mentioned working with the Egyptian Theatre, someone said, “I love that place!” By 2012, outsiders could see that Coos Bay was on track to bring the theater back to life, but no one — includ— Oregon ing Restore anticipated the generosity of the response would enable it to be done so quickly. The passion, dedication and sacrifice that has poured into the Egyptian over the past three years is nothing short of heroic. While Coos Bay and the South Coast once again have a landmark theater to be proud of, the
community has an even greater asset in the people that made it happen. If this citizen ingenuity, collaboration and vision can be sustained, the Egyptian will be the first of many downtown success stories. Congratulations! Peggy Moretti Portland
Cop makes senior’s day For years I have been fortunate to see my acupuncturist, Stephen Procunier, in the Hall Building on alternate Wednesdays. Due to successful farmers markets, parking is increasingly a problem. A cab driver apologized for holding a spot for a person with a wheelchair. I kept driving around, and as the cab pulled out, a white police van whipped in and grabbed the spot. As the young man got out, I said, “I’ve been waiting for this
place.” I got a big smile, and the police officer said, “I can find another spot!” Jumped in the van and drove off. I’m white-haired, 90, and I’m used to being treated graciously, but this fellow made my day! If any one knows who this is, tell his boss to give him a raise! Severn Jones North Bend

Keeping the liberal world order Are the neocons going home? By “neocons,” I refer to followers of the hawkish foreign policy school that began to coalesce in the 1970s around New York writers and academics who had rejected their Communist or Socialist lodestar to become vocal anti-Communists. A generation or so later, from Kosovo to Georgia,from Afghanistan to Iraq, from Libya to Syria, from Ukraine and now back to Iraq, they consistently advocate the use of American power, often American troops, to establish and enforce a “liberal world order.” By “going home,” I mean returning to the Democratic Party. The question took shape while I was reading a profile in The New York Times about neocon light Robert Kagan — brother of Iraq “surge” architect Frederick Kagan, son of Yale professor Donald Kagan, and husband of State Department diplomat Victoria Nuland. The Times describes Robert Kagan as “the congenial and well-respected scion of one of America’s first families of interventionism.” If there is something jarring about the “first families of interventionism” moniker — just think for a moment about the families of the soldiers who actually do the “intervening” — it doesn’t seem
to be meant i r o n i c a l l y. Kagan, in fact, says he prefers to call himself a “liberal interventionist,” not a neocon. This may indeed be more appropriate for the DIANA B r o o k i n g s WEST Institution fel- Columnist low and New Republic contributing editor that he is, but there’s nothing “conservative,” or even “neo,” about it. So is this Times profile a “coming out” party? Maybe that accounts for the Times’ distinctly warm and fuzzy coverage. Kagan “exudes a Cocoa-Puffs-pouring, stay-at-home-dad charm,” the newspaper reported — not exactly standard Times treatment for a foreign policy hawk ever-ready, it seems, to give war a chance. Or is it? After 9/11, the more I learned about Islam, the less I supported the Bush-Obama nation-building counterinsurgencies in Iraq and Afghanistan — high-water marks of neoconservative influence on the direction of U.S. policy and war strategy. We haven’t recovered yet. At its root, the conceptual
strategy behind these wars was driven by the universalist and globalist impulse that denies differences among peoples, religions, tribes, nations, societies of all kinds, as an ideological fundamental to justify the measures required to impose order — the “new world order” President George H.W. Bush talked about, and the “liberal world order” Kagan now discusses. It helps explain why President George W. Bush could plant empty ballot boxes in Islamic Iraq and expect the Bill of Rights and other fruits of Graeco-Roman-JudeoChristian millennia to grow. But about neocons possibly “going home” to the Democratic Party. The Times reports: “Both Mr. Kagan and his brother are taking considerable pains to describe their advocacy as broadly bipartisan.‘The urgent priority is to unite internationalists on both sides of the spectrum,’ said Fred Kagan, while his brother, Robert, mentioned his briefing of a bipartisan congressional delegation at Davos and his good relations with top White House officials, including the national security adviser, Susan E. Rice.” The Times continues: “But Exhibit A for what Robert Kagan describes as his ‘mainstream’ view of American force is his rela-
tionship with former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who remains the vessel into which many interventionists are pouring their hopes.” Do I hear an SOS? “Shipwrecked neocons seeking vessel to pour interventionist hopes into. Will deploy troops anywhere.” The Times: “Mr. Kagan pointed out that he had recently attended a dinner of foreign-policy experts at which Mrs. Clinton was the guest of honor, and that he had served on her bipartisan group of foreign-policy heavy hitters at the State Department, where his wife worked as her spokeswoman. ‘I feel comfortable with her on foreign policy,’ Mr. Kagan said, adding that the next step after Mr. Obama’s more realist approach ‘could theoretically be whatever Hillary brings to the table’ if elected president.” “‘If she pursues a policy which we think she will pursue,’ he added, ‘it’s something that might have been called neocon, but clearly her supporters are not going to call it that; they are going to call it something else.” And The New York Times will find it all Cocoa-Puffs charming.

State Expectant mom’s disappointment more common than she thinks DEAR ABBY: When I read the letter from “Undeserving Title of Mommy” (March 4), the pregnant woman who was saddened by the fact that she’s expecting a baby boy instead of the girl she had hoped for, my heart went out to her. I was reminded of something I had read about, a condition called gender depression or gender DEAR disappointment. In the cursory search I did, it was a l m o s t a l w a y s described as what this mother JEANNE seems to be PHILLIPS feeling — disappointment, sadness, guilt, etc. Unfortunately, this condition isn't widely discussed, in much the same way that postpartum depression isn’t talked about. However, from what I’ve discovered, the writer is far from the only woman to experience this. Many women describe their feelings about gender disappointment on parenting websites. This may be a good start, opening a discussion for this woman on what she is feeling. She should also consider talking to her doctor to find out what resources may be available to her as she works through this. I hope she finds the help she needs. I wish her well. — CONCERNED IN NEW MEXICO DEAR CONCERNED: Thank you for the suggeswomen Many tion. with sympathized “Undeserving.” Read on for more responses: DEAR ABBY: I have a son, and when I was carrying him, I felt the same way. I didn’t think I could love him like I could love a daughter. I didn’t tell anyone about my feelings and I, too, felt like a monster. But this all changed once I held my son for the first time. I can’t imagine now living without my little guy, and I wouldn’t change him for the world. “Undeserving” is not alone. Many women feel this way about having a son. Like Abby said, don’t rush into signing any papers, because you may find that when you hold him for the first time, you will fall in love and you would deeply regret having done so. — UNDERSTANDING MOM DEAR ABBY: “Undeserving Mommy,” you are so lucky to be the mother of a prince. Every princess dreams of marrying a prince. You need to reread the fairy tales and get some counseling. — GRANDMOTHER OF PRINCESSES AND PRINCE CHARMING DEAR ABBY: You should have also advised that woman that before she has four children — princes or princesses — she should get an education, a job and a husband so society won’t have to support her little “kingdom.” Too many children have no father figure to help raise them. I spent my working life striving to educate my children, and achieving that goal is much more difficult when there aren’t two loving parents to share the job. — FRED IN THE MIDWEST DEAR ABBY: Even if that child was another girl, there is no guarantee that she would be a girly-girl; she could easily be a tomboy, gay or prefer sports to tea parties. There is also no guarantee that the little girl “Undeserving” already has will be a girly-girl. Abby, you were right to advise counseling. This unwed mother shows disturbing signs of living in a fantasy world. And it may well be that the precious baby boy she is expecting would be better off being raised by the father and his family. — JANE IN ST. JOHNS, MICH. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O.

Years of research reveal more about iconic orcas SEATTLE (AP) — Scientists studying Puget Sound orcas for the past decade now know they are among the most contaminated marine mammals, with pollutants particularly high in young killer whales, according to a report released Wednesday. The report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration summarizes a decade of research findings that reveal the mysterious lives of a small population of endangered killer whales that frequents the inland waters of Washington state. It shows that the orcas prefer to eat Chinook salmon and also consume fish such as halibut; hunt less, travel more and call louder when more vessels are in the area; head to the outer coast durThe Associated Press ing the winter, foraging as far This Tuesday,June 24, photo shows the house built in 1892 that venture south as Central California
and eating salmon from the Columbia and Sacramento rivers; and have high levels of banned pollutants such as PCBs. Yet, despite recovery efforts including new rules that prevent vessels from coming within 200 yards of any orca and designated critical habitat, scientists say the orcas continue to struggle to recover and more long-term work needs to be done to ensure survival. The unique population, known as southern resident killer whales, numbered more than 140 animals decades ago, but declined to a low of 71 in the 1970s when dozens of the mammals were captured live to be displayed at marine parks and aquariums across the country. In 2013, there were about 82. The striking black and white whales have come to symbolize the Pacific
Northwest and play an important cultural and spiritual role for many Northwest tribes. Until recently, scientists didn’t know exactly where orcas went in the winter months. Using acoustic monitoring and satellite tags, they’ve been able to track the orcas movements as they moved up and down the coast. Scientists have also found that Chinook salmon from the Fraser River in British Columbia make up the bulk of their summer diet. Genetic tools have been used to understand what the orcas eat, how they mate and their relationship to each other. “We are in a much better situation with the information we have now,” Lynne Barre, NOAA Fisheries Seattle branch chief, said during a telephone call with reporters.

Cover Oregon offers retention bonuses
After uproar, Google executive to sell home PORTLAND (AP) — A venture capitalist has opted to sell his recently purchased northwest Portland home to neighbors instead of demolishing it. Kevin Rose is a general partner for Google Ventures. Earlier this year, he paid $1.3 million for a house built in 1892. He initially planned to renovate the old place. When that proved costly, he decided to tear it down and build a 5,900-square-foot
home with a modern design. That outraged neighbors who didn’t want the historic home demolished. An online petition to save the home garnered 3,000 signatures, but demolition was expected to start this week. On Tuesday, Rose agreed to sell the home for $1.375 million. He said in a statement that he and his wife did not want an adversarial relationship with their neighbors and new city friends.
bonuses to employees who stick around through a tumultuous time for the struggling health insurance exchange. The bonuses, which could total up to $650,000, are necessary to avoid losing staff with expertise in key technology and health-policy issues, Cover Oregon’s executive director Clyde Hamstreet said in a letter to the board of directors. The organization has been struggling from the loss of 27 staff members since April to layoffs and voluntary departures. “Many of the employees who voluntarily left Cover Oregon had key skills that are not easily to replace both in
wrote. “We cannot afford to losing valuable keep employees if we are to complete the work load for the remainder of 2014 and the IT transition project.” Most of Cover Oregon’s 163 employees can earn two weeks of pay if they stay through March 15, when the organization expects to wrap up its next enrollment push that ends a month earlier. About three dozen employees deemed essential qualify for larger bonuses: 21 can earn one month of pay, 15 can get two months of pay and two people are eligible for three months. Cover Oregon’s muchtouted website never fully launched to the general pub-
enrolling people in private health insurance and the state Medicaid program. The state has decided to give up running its own website and is in the process of building the technical infrastructure to transition to a website run by the federal government. Workers are also needed to help customers who have a change in circumstances — like a new address, birth of a child or a new job — and to process commissions for 1,200 insurance agents, said Ariane Holm, a Cover Oregon spokeswoman. Funding for the bonuses will come from Cover Oregon’s existing budget, Holm said.
County told right-to-farm could shield pot grows MEDFORD (AP) — In Southern Oregon, commissioners in Jackson County have been fielding comabout medical plaints marijuana grows — traffic, lights and the skunk-like smell of maturing pot. The county commissioners say a new state law designed to put medical marijuana dispensaries on a sound legal footing could lead to more pot grows. But their county administrator, Danny Jordan, tells them that trying to pass nuisance laws against marijuana grows could run up against Oregon’s right-to-farm laws: Regulations on pot grows would apply to other crops. For instance, the Medford Mail Tribune reports, an onion crop has a strong odor, and grain farmers use lights to work their fields after sundown. The right-to-farm law is designed to protect the normal practices of agriculture,
especially where new residential development abuts farm land.
TriMet’s electric bus runs out of steam PORTLAND (AP) — TriMet’s test of an all-electric bus ran out of steam Wednesday when the bus was taken out of service because the plug-in vehicle wouldn’t take a charge. A TriMet spokeswoman, Roberta Altstadt, told The Oregonian technicians for the agency and the builder were looking into the cause of the problem.

Man enters plea in breath-holding crash HILLSBORO (AP) — A 20-year-old man who told investigators he fainted while holding his breath as he drove through an Oregon tunnel, resulting in a three-vehicle crash, has pleaded not guilty to criminal charges. The Oregonian reports that Daniel Calhoon of Washington, Snohomish, was arraigned Wednesday in Circuit Court on three counts of fourth-degree assault and one count each of reckless driving and second-degree criminal mischief. State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings said at the time he wasn’t sure why Calhoon held his breath, but some people hold their breaths in tunnels as part of a game or superstition. Hastings said Wednesday he had no update. Authorities say Calhoon showed no signs of intoxication and there was no indication of a medical issue or cellphone use.

Nation Oklahoma residents seek answers on quakes
The Associated Press
About 300 people gathered at a downtown park to celebrate the gay marriage ruling Wednesday in Salt Lake City.A federal appeals court ruled for the first time that states must allow gay couples to marry, finding the Constitution protects same-sex relationships and putting a remarkable legal winning streak across the country one step closer to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Ruling pushes gay marriage closer to Supreme Court DENVER (AP) — The first ruling by a federal appeals court that states cannot prevent gay couples from marrying makes it more likely the Supreme Court will ultimately have to make a decision it has so far avoided — do states have the ability to prohibit same-sex marriage? The court danced around that question precisely one year ago when it issued a pair of rulings on gay marriage. At the time, Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer warned about the high court trying to enforce societal changes through judicial fiat, with Ginsberg citing the lingering abortion rights battle ever since the court legalized the practice in Roe v. Wade. The high court’s caution was evident in its rulings: It upheld a decision striking down California’s gay marriage ban but relied on technicalities rather than finding a national right for same sex couples to marry. Then it struck down parts of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, finding samesex marriages from states where the practice was legal must be recognized.
That decision triggered an avalanche of 17 straight court decisions upholding the rights of gays to marry, including Wednesday’s 2-1 ruling from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver, the highest court to weigh in since the Supreme Court. Utah, whose gay marriage ban was struck down in the decision, is considering an appeal to the Supreme Court. “This tees it up for possible Supreme Court review,” said William Eskridge, a law professor at Yale University. “When a federal appeals court strikes down a major state law, there is a lot more pressure for the justices to take that.” There is no guarantee that the Utah case will be the one that makes it to the top court. Five other appellate courts are considering similar cases, and any of those could be the one taken. The soonest a case could be decided is 2015, but often the Supreme Court waits for a split in appellate courts before considering an issue. “I don’t know if the Supreme Court is going to wait for a circuit split as long as it usually does,” said
fundamental right to marry,” Justice Carlos Lucero wrote for the majority. “We may not deny them relief based on a mere preference that their arguments be settled elsewhere.” But Justice Paul Kelly argued in his dissent that the 10th Circuit overstepped its authority and that states should be able to decide who can marry. “We should resist the temptation to become philosopher-kings, imposing our views under the guise of the 14th Amendment,” Kelly wrote. The ruling came down just minutes after a federal judge threw out that Indiana’s same-sex marriage ban in a decision that immediately allows gay couples to wed. But the legal significance of the 10th Circuit ruling is far greater because it is one level higher on the legal food chain. In 2012, an appellate court struck down California’s gay marriage ban but said it was only ruling on that law, not the broader constitutional questions. There were no such caveats in Wednesday’s 65-page decision.
Nancy Leong, a law professor at the University of Denver, noting that the recent judicial unanimity on the issue could make that a long wait. Meanwhile, she noted, countless gay couples are eager to marry and less and less willing for the slow pace of the courts. That was on display in Colorado on Wednesday afternoon, when the county clerk in the liberal city of Boulder announced she would issue same-sex marriage licenses even though the 10th Circuit — which along with Colorado and Utah includes, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming — stayed its decision pending appeal. The state’s attorney general declared the licenses invalid because Colorado’s gay marriage prohibition is still the law, but Clerk and Recorder Hillary Hall said she would continue to issue them until stopped by a court. ruling Wednesday’s stressed the urgency of overturning gay marriage bans rather than waiting for new laws to be written by elected officials. “Plaintiffs in this case have convinced us that Amendment 3 violates their

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma residents whose homes and nerves have been shaken by an upsurge in earthquakes want to know what’s causing the temblors — and what can be done to stop them. Hundreds of people are expected to turn out in Edmond, Oklahoma, on Thursday night for a town hall meeting on the issue. Earthquakes used to be almost unheard of on the vast stretches of prairie that unfold across Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma, but they’ve become common in recent years. Oklahoma recorded nearly 150 between January and the start of May. Though most have been too weak to cause serious damage or endanger lives, they’ve raised suspicions that the shaking might be connected to the oil and gas drilling method known as hydraulic fracturing, especially the wells in which the industry disposes of its
wastewater. Now after years of being harangued by anxious residents, governments in all three states are confronting the issue, reviewing scientific data, holding public discussions and considering new regulations. Thursday’s meeting in Oklahoma will include the state agency that regulates oil and gas drilling and the Oklahoma Geological Survey. States with historically few earthquakes are trying to reconcile the scientific data with the interests of their citizens and the oil and gas industry. “This is all about managing risks,” said Oklahoma Corporation Commission spokesman Matt Skinner. “It’s a little more complicated than that because, of course, we’re managing perceived risks. There’s been no definitive answers, but we’re not waiting for one. We have to go with what the data suggests.”
High court voids abortion clinic buffer WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a 35foot protest-free zone outside abortion clinics in Massachusetts. The justices were unanimous in ruling that extending a buffer zone 35 feet from clinic entrances violates the First Amendment rights of protesters. John Chief Justice Roberts said authorities have less intrusive ways to deal with problems outside the clinics. While the court was unanimous in the outcome, Roberts joined with the four liberal justices to strike down the buffer zone on narrow grounds. In a separate opinion, Justice Antonin Scalia criticized Roberts’ opinion for carrying forward “this court’s practice of giving abortion-rights advocates a pass when it
comes to suppressing the freespeech rights of their opponents.” The case began when Boston-area grandmother Eleanor McCullen and other abortion opponents sued over the limits on their activities at Planned Parenthood health centers in Boston, Springfield and Worcester. At the latter two sites, the protesters say they have little chance of reaching patients arriving by car because they must stay 35 feet from the entrance to those buildings’ parking lots. Planned Parenthood provides health exams for women, cancer screenings, tests for sexually transmitted diseases, birth control and abortions at its clinics. The organization said that the buffer zone has significantly reduced the harassment of patients and clinic employees.
US treads warily with Iran and Syria in Iraq ND ATIONAL I G E S T
WASHINGTON (AP) — Strange bedfellows, indeed. The Obama administration has found itself in a foreign policy and national security pickle of rare complexity with the apparent entry of Syria into the Iraq conflict on the side of the U.S.-backed government in Baghdad, as well as active Iranian military support for Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Washington already was toeing a delicate line with Shiite Iran, which the U.S. deems the world’s most active state sponsor of terrorism, over their common short-term interest in turning back the advance of militant Sunni rebels in Iraq. Now, to its dismay, Syrian President Bashar Assad — regarded in Washington as a pariah who should be ousted — has joined the club with what U.S. and Iraqi officials say are airstrikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in western Iraq. ISIL had been fighting Assad in Syria before turning its major focus to seizing large swaths of northern Iraq.
Police, prosecutors comply with ruling LOS ANGELES (AP) — Officers are being briefed during roll calls, new procedures are in place, and prosecutors are considering the effect on potentially thousands of pending court cases after the Supreme Court’s ruling that restricts police searches of cellphones. From Los Angeles to New York, and in San Diego, Chicago and Houston, officials met to discuss Wednesday’s unanimous ruling that could make it harder for officers to quickly find incriminating evidence. The ruling prohibits law enforcement from searching an arrestee’s cellphone without a warrant unless a person’s safety or life may be in danger.
Rangel victory assures him one more hurrah NEW YORK (AP) — After nearly half a century in office, Rep. Charles Rangel emerged from a bruising primary in his self-proclaimed last campaign squeaking to victory — and trumpeting it. With 100 percent of the vote counted in unofficial results, Rangel led state Sen. Adriano Espaillat 47.4 percent to 43.6 percent, a difference of fewer than 2,000 votes. While the official vote count in the Democratic primary won’t begin until July 2, The Associated Press called Rangel the primary winner on information based Wednesday from the city Board of Elections on ballots cast that were not included in the election night tally. The number of absentee and provisional ballots was not sufficient for Espaillat to make up the difference.
FAA to lower height limit near airports WASHINGTON (AP) — The government wants to dramatically reduce the allowable height of buildings near hundreds of airports — a proposal that is drawing fire from real estate developers and members of Congress who say it will reduce property values. The Federal Aviation Administration proposal, supported by airports and airlines, is driven by encroaching development that limits safe flight paths for planes that might lose power in an engine during takeoff. Planes can fly with only one engine, but they have less power to climb quickly over obstacles.

WORLD D I G E S T Hunt for missing Malaysian jet shifts SYDNEY (AP) — Investigators looking into the disappearance of the Malaysia Airlines plane are confident it was on autopilot when it crashed in a remote stretch of the Indian Ocean, Australian officials said Thursday as they announced the latest shift in the search for the jet. After analyzing data exchanged between the plane and a satellite, officials believe Flight 370 was on autopilot the entire time it was flying across a vast expanse of the southern Indian Ocean, based on the straight path it took, Australian Transport Safety Bureau chief commissioner Martin Dolan said.
Explosion rocks mall in Nigerian capital ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — An explosion blamed on Islamic extremists rocked a shopping mall in Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, and police said 21 people were killed. The blast came as Nigerians were preparing to watch their country’s Super Eagles play Argentina at the World Cup in Brazil. Many shops at the mall have TV screens but it was unclear if the explosion was timed to coincide with the match, which started an hour later. Witnesses said body parts were scattered around the exit to Emab Plaza, in Abuja’s upscale Wuse 2 suburb. One witness said he thought the bomb was dropped at the entrance to the mall by a motorcyclist. All spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals. Soldiers shot and killed one suspect as he tried to escape on a power bike and police detained a second suspect.
Bolivia rebels at timepieces, flips clock LA PAZ, Bolivia (AP) — Bolivia’s leftist government is turning back the clock. Or, more precisely, turning it backward. The government this week flipped the clock atop the Congress building so that while it’s accurate, the hands now turn to the left, a direction known elsewhere as counterclockwise. Foreign Minister David Choquehuanca announced the modification Tuesday. He said it was only logical that a clock in the Southern Hemisphere should turn in the opposite direction of a Northern Hemisphere clock. The president of Congress, Marcelo Elio, on Wednesday called the reform “a clear expression of the decolonization of the people” under President Evo Morales, who became the country’s first indigenous president when he won office in 2005 and is up for re-election in October.
Europe euthanasia rulings sear debate PARIS (AP) — One French court acquitted a doctor of poisoning seven terminally ill patients while another ordered physicians to suspend treatment for a comatose man, while Britain’s top court said the country’s ban on assisted suicide may be incompatible with human rights. The decisions of the past few days are fueling the arguments of Europeans who say the duty of doctors is to end the suffering of those beyond treatment. But emotions run high on all sides around the issue of euthanasia and assisted suicide, as is shown by the bitter case of the comatose Frenchman, Vincent Lambert. Hours after the French court sided with his wife in ordering an end to treatment, the European Court of Human Rights blocked the move at the request of his parents, in a rare late-night ruling.

Salwa Bugaighis, lawyer and rights activist, poses for a photograph during a meeting in Tripoli, Libya. One of Libya’s most prominent female activists was assassinated in the restive eastern city of Benghazi when gunmen stormed her house, the state news agency reported Thursday, in slaying that stunned human rights advocates. Bugaighis, was at the forefront in the 2011 uprising against dictator Moammar Gadhafi. She was among the most outspoken voices against militiamen and Islamic extremists who have run rampant in the country since Gadhafi’s fall.
Prominent female activist killed in Libya CAIRO (AP) — One of Libya’s most prominent female activists was assassinated in the restive eastern city of Benghazi when gunmen stormed her house, the state news agency reported Thursday, in slaying that stunned many Libyans. Salwa Bugaighis, a lawyer and rights activist, was at the forefront in the 2011 uprising against dictator Moammar Gadhafi and had since become an international face for Libyans’ efforts to build democracy in their country. She was among the most outspoken voices against militiamen and Islamic extremists who have run rampant in the country since Gadhafi’s fall. The identity of the gunmen was not immediately known. Islamic radical militias, however, have been blamed for frequent assassinations of secular activists, judges, moderate clerics, policemen, soldiers in Benghazi, Libya’s second largest city. Bugaighis was shot in the head on Wednesday night, just hours after casting her ballot in Libya’s parliament elections, the state news agency LANA reported. She was rushed to a hospital where she died of her wounds, it said. Earlier in the day, she had been speaking by phone from her home on a Libyan TV channel about fighting raging near her neighborhood, sparked when militants
attacked army troops that had been deploying to protest polling station. “These are people who want to foil elections,” she told Al-Nabaa network as rattling gunfire interrupted her call. “Benghazi has been always defiant, and always will be despite the pain and fear. It will succeed.” In the evening, five gunmen broke into her home, the house’s guard told police, according to the Al-Wasat newspaper. They first asked about her son Wael, then shot the guard in the leg, then broke into the house. The guard said he heard gunfire from inside. Bugaighis’s husband, who is a member of the Benghazi municipal council and was also at home at the time, has disappeared since the attack, the paper and other Libyan media said. Bugaighis had only just come to Benghazi from the capital, Tripoli, especially to cast her ballot in the election, a family friend Hanaa Mohammed told Libya Ahrar TV.She had fled with her family some time back to Jordan because of death threats against them. The son, Wael, survived an abduction attempt earlier in the year. More recently, she and her husband came back and were staying in Tripoli, though their two children — including Wael — remained in Jordan, a family friend said.
Bugaighis was a wellknown figure in Benghazi, where her family is prominent. Since the civil war, she also became one of Libya’s main faces abroad, representing the country at international conferences. During Gadhafi’s rule, she represented families of prisoners in Tripoli’s notorious Abu Selim prison, pressing the government for the truth of what happened to 1,200 prisoners who disappeared, most of them Islamists from Benghazi. During the 8-month civil war against Gadhafi,Bugaighis was a member of the National Transitional Council, the rebels’ political leadership body. Since then, she was deputy head of the National Dialogue Preparatory Commission, which is trying to work out reconciliation among the country’s rival factions, tribes and communities. Her slaying stunned the community of activists, politicians and diplomats. “All supporters of the truth are threatened,” said Hassan al-Amin, another prominent activist and former head of the human rights committee in parliament, who fled abroad because of death threats. On her Twitter page, U.S. ambassador Deborah K. Jones called her killing “a cowardly, despicable, shameful act against a courageous woman and true Libyan patriot. Heartbreaking.”
Ukraine calls on Russia to support peace plan MOSCOW (AP) — Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko on Thursday called on Russia to support his peace plan “with deeds, not words” as a weeklong cease-fire between government troops and pro-Russian rebels is set to expire late Friday. German Chancellor Angela Merkel and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said they too were looking for more action from Russia ahead of a summit on Friday of European Union leaders who will be reviewing their sanctions against Moscow. More than 300 people have been killed in eastern Ukraine in the past weeks as proRussian insurgents fought with government forces. Ukraine last Friday announced a unilateral cease-fire with the rebels. Some rebel groups said they would observe the ceasefire as well. Even so, 18 government troops have been killed this week, Poroshenko said. Speaking at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg on Thursday, Poroshenko called for Moscow to support his peace plan with deeds and, specifically, prevent armed separatists from
crossing the Russian border into Ukraine. “Without that, we cannot talk about peace,” Poroshenko said. “Do support the peace plan with deeds, not words, because with these deeds we will stop the killing of civilians and the military who defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the state.” Kerry, speaking in Paris, said “it is critical for Russia to show in the next hours, literally, that they’re moving to help disarm the separatists, to encourage them to disarm.” EU leaders will be meeting Thursday evening in Ypres and Friday in Brussels, and will weigh the need to impose new sanctions on Russia over its actions in Ukraine. EU officials have said tougher economic sanctions have been prepared and are ready for use. Merkel also stressed the importance for Russia to show its commitments “in the coming hours,” saying that Germany will “have to decide how we will further proceed” on possible sanctions against Russia after a meeting with Poroshenko on Friday. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said he supports the plan.
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — After more than a decade of helping fight Islamic militants, the United States is disbanding an anti-terror contingent of hundreds of elite American troops in the southern Philippines where armed groups such as Abu Sayyaf have largely been crippled, officials said Thursday. But special forces from the U.S. Pacific Command, possibly in smaller numbers, will remain after the deactivation of the Joint Special Operations Task Force Philippines (JSOTF-P), to ensure al-Qaida offshoots such as Abu Sayyaf and the Indonesia-based Jemaah Islamiyah do not regain lost ground, according to U.S. and Philippine officials. The move marks a new chapter in the long-running battle against an al-Qaidainspired movement in the southern Philippines, viewed by the U.S. as a key front in the global effort to keep terrorists at bay. It reflects shifting security strategies and focus in economically vibrant Asia, where new concerns such as multiple territorial conflicts involving China have alarmed Washington’s allies entangled in the disputes. A year after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the U.S. military established the task force in the southern Philippines to help illequipped Filipino forces contain a bloody rampage by Abu Sayyaf gunmen, who carried out bombings, terrorized entire towns and kidnapped more than 100 people, including three Americans.
Although U.S. forces are barred by the Philippine Constitution from engaging in combat, the advice, training, military equipment and intelligence, including drone surveillance, that they provided helped the underfunded Philippine military beat back the Abu Sayyaf. U.S.-backed Philippine offensives whittled the militants’ ranks from a few thousand fighters — mostly drawn from desperately poor hinterland villages — to about 300 gunmen, who survive on extortion and kidnappings for ransom while dodging military assaults. “Our partnership with the Philippine security forces has been successful in drastically reducing the capabilities of domestic and transnational terrorist groups in the Philippines,” U.S. Embassy Press Attache Kurt Hoyer said in a written response to questions sent by email by The Associated Press. The remaining terrorists, he said, “have largely devolved into disorganized groups resorting to criminal undertakings to sustain their activities.” That success has led U.S. military planners in coordination with their Philippine counterparts “to begin working on a transition plan where the JSOTF-P as a task force will no longer exist,” Hoyer said, adding there were currently about 320 American military personnel left in the south. Before the drawdown, about 500 to 600 Americans had been deployed there.
Iraqi parliament to meet in step to form new govt BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq’s vice president called on parliament to convene on Tuesday, taking the first step toward forming a new government to present a united front against a rapidly advancing Sunni insurgency while Britain’s top diplomat started an official visit to the country to urge the country’s leaders to put their differences aside for the good of the nation. Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki’s political bloc won the most seats in April 30 elections — with 92 seats out of the 328 — but he needs support from other blocs to govern with a majority. His efforts to form a coalition have been complicated by the current crisis as critics blame his failure to promote national reconciliation for the Sunni anger fueling the insurgent gains and want him to step down. Khudeir al-Khuzaie statement ordered the new parliament to hold its first session on Tuesday and to be chaired by the eldest member. Constitutionally the next step would be to elect a speaker and two deputies, then within 30 days to choose a new president who in return has 15 days to ask the largest bloc to choose a prime minister and form the new government. The Prime Minister-designate has 30 days to present his cabinet to the parliament. Absolute majority is needed to approve new government inside parliament. Led by al-Qaida spin-off

group, known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, the insurgents quickly took over Iraq’s second-largest city of Mosul on June 10 followed by Saddam Hussein’s hometown of Tikrit and smaller communities in the northern Sunni heartland as government forces melted away. The latest onslaught poses a daunting challenge and threatens to split the nation up into warring Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish enclaves. Al-Maliki has faced pressure, including from his onetime Shiite allies, to step down and form an interim government that could provide leadership until a more permanent solution can be found. He has insisted the constitutional process must be allowed to proceed. Compounding the pressure, powerful Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr made a televised statement in which he called for the formation of a national unity government that would bring “new faces” representing all groups and steering the country away from the sectarian distribution of power. Al-Sadr, whose followers fought fiercely against U.S. forces and Sunni extremists during past bloodshed that pushed the country to the brink of civil war, also vowed late Wednesday to “shake the ground” under the feet of the al-Qaida breakaway group that has threatened to advance toward Baghdad and holy Shiite cities in the south.

ROTARY Half of funds return to area Continued from Page A1 That means that the Coos Bay-North Bend Rotary Club, the largest of the three Bay Area clubs, had 26 members reach that milestone over the last year. Which, Gray notes, really does make an enormous difference for a variety of causes. “What I mean by that is, (these contributions fund) international projects for clean water, for sanitation, child maternal health, and the biggest program we have, of course, is polio eradication, which we began back in 1988, and we are truly very, very close to achieving that goal today,” he said. “And that happens only because of the support of individual Rotarians like we saw (Tuesday).” He also stressed that these contributions, after a threeyear period, are 100 percent utilized for the funding of
BOEHNER Impeachment not on the table Continued from Page A1 between Republicans and Obama and his Democratic allies in a campaign already full of them. “On matters ranging from health care and energy to foreign policy and education, President Obama has repeatedly run an end-around” on the public and Congress, the speaker wrote. He accused him of “ignoring some statutes completely, selectively enforcing others and at times, creating laws of his own.” At a news conference, Boehner strongly brushed aside a question of whether impeachment proceedings could result from the suit. In his memo, he stopped short of accusing the president of violating his oath of office. Instead, he said Obama was “straining the boundaries of the solemn oath he took on Inauguration Day.”
these types of projects, home and abroad. “Half of those dollars go into what is called the World Fund and half (go into the) District Fund, which are returned here to our own district. A significant number of those dollars come back here to Coos Bay in the form of community grants.” As an example, he noted that $4,000 from donations three years ago were reinvested back into this area via community based projects. “Rotary is an extraordinary organization, in that it is global, with 1.2 million Rotarians in over 200 countries and geographic areas,” Gray says. “But, also very local in each one of the communities. Not just in terms of the dollars that they contribute, but in the work that they do. “What Rotary believes in, and our theme, is ‘service above self,’ and certainly this club, and the other two clubs in this community, exemplify that goal.” Tim reporter World Novotny is president-elect of the Bay Area Rotary Club.
Other Republicans have been less restrained. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Pa., said recently the House probably has the votes to impeach Obama, although he said he wasn’t calling for it. One former tea party-backed lawmaker, exRep. Allen West of Florida, has called for the House to vote to remove the president from office. Boehner also rejected a suggestion that the suit was a political move designed to give traditional Republican voters an added impetus for going to the polls this fall when control of Congress will be at stake. But Rep. Steve Israel of New York, who chairs the Democratic campaign committee, said Boehner planned a “politically motivated lawsuit,” and predicted the punish would voters Republicans for it. He accused the speaker of a “reprehensible waste of taxpayers’ money and a desperate political stunt meant to gin up the Republican base at a time when House Republicans are historically unpopular.”
MEASURES Backers still short signatures Continued from Page A1 said that the organization stopped paid canvassing efforts for its two ballot measures. While some canvassers went on strike last week complaining of delayed paychecks, Stanford said that was not the reason for the decision to halt paid petitioners. He said it recently became clear they would not possibly gather the required number of signatures — around 116,000 for a constitutional amendment legalizing recreational use and 87,000 for a statute allowing the state to regulate
and tax pot cultivation, processing and sales. State records show that as of June 23 the group had submitted fewer than half the needed signatures on either measure. That leaves in contention only one other legalization initiative — and that should be a good thing for its backers, allowing them to focus their message better and reduce voter confusion, said Len Bergstein, a lobbyist and political consultant. Bergstein has worked on Oregon ballot-measure campaigns. “The prospects for the measure increase with the idea that there’s only going to be one of them on the ballot,” Bergstein said. “Clarity’s on their side on this one, and confusion or haze would be their enemy.”

tution or not.” In 2012, Stanford successfully got a marijuana-legalization initiative on the ballot, but voters rejected it 47 percent to 53 percent. Legalization advocates spent millions helping to get Washington’s and Colorado’s measures passed, but they avoided Oregon, complaining that the measure was poorly drafted and didn’t qualify for the ballot in time for them to make an effective case to voters. Now the same groups that backed the efforts in Colorado and Washington have poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into New Approach Oregon, which has spent more than $825,000 so far this year. Stanford said he’ll vote for the measure if it qualifies for the ballot.
Justices rule for broadcasters in fight with TV-streaming Aereo WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that a startup Internet company has to pay broadcasters when it takes television programs from the airwaves and allows subscribers to watch them on smartphones and other portable devices. The justices said by a 6-3 vote that Aereo Inc. is violating the broadcasters’ copyrights by taking the signals for free. The ruling preserves the ability of the television networks to collect huge fees from cable and satellite systems that transmit their programming. Had services such as Aereo been allowed to operate without paying for the programming, more people might have ditched their cable services, meaning The Associated Press broadcasters would have been able to charge less for This file image provided by Aereo shows a streaming broadcast of Bob the Builder on the New York PBS stathe right to transmit their tion, WNET 13.

The remaining measure is backed by the group New Approach Oregon, which announced Wednesday that it would be submitting 145,000 signatures — far beyond the 87,000 needed to qualify for the ballot — to the Secretary of State’s Office on Thursday. Their proposal would not amend the constitution but would give the Oregon Liquor Control Commission the job of regulating marijuana like it does alcohol. “Having only one measure on the ballot likely makes it easier for voters,” said Anthony Johnson, the group’s director. “The additional measures would have forced voters to consider different regulatory structures, different possession limits, potentially whether they wanted to put marijuana legalization into the consti-

Lincecum no-hits Padres BY JOSH DUBOW The Associated Press
The Associated Press
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Tim Lincecum threw his second career no-hitter as San Francisco beat the San Diego Padres 4-0 on Wednesday. Lincecum’s other nohitter came last year — also against San Diego.
SAN FRANCISCO — The shaggy hair, overpowering fastball and consistent dominance have been replaced by a mustache, off-speed pitches and a long stretch of mediocrity. Tim Lincecum has undergone quite a transformation since bursting on the scene as the undersized Freak who dominated bulky sluggers. Through it all, Lincecum has remained a fan favorite in San Francisco for his ability to produce memorable performances. Lincecum pitched his second no-hitter against the San Diego
Padres in less than a year, allowing only one runner Wednesday and leading the San Francisco Giants to a 4-0 win. “Right now I guess I can say it’s really cool,” Lincecum said. “When I get older I can reflect on that a little more and just take it in for what it’s worth. Right now I’m still kind of in the moment.” Lincecum shut down the weakest-hitting team in the majors, striking out six and walking one in a 113-pitch outing — 35 fewer than he needed last July 13 against the Padres in his first no-hitter. Lincecum retired the final 23 batters after walking Chase Headley in the second inning, rely-
ing much more on his off-speed stuff than his fastball. Though the Padres hit a few balls hard, San Francisco fielders didn’t need to make any exceptional plays to preserve Lincecum’s gem. “I’ve always been that guy who will kind of go for the strikeout,” Lincecum said. “I think my first no-hitter I had 13, so I think I was going for those a little bit more often.” “Today I tried to be a little bit more efficient and take what they were going to give me. They were giving me a lot of groundballs and a lot of pop flies, so I was just going to SEE LINCECUM | B4
Hats will change at draft Draft begins at 4:30 p.m. with coverage on ESPN ■
BY JON KRAWCZYNSKI The Associated Press
Tom Penn was an assistant general manager with the Memphis Grizzlies in 2006 when they struck a deal with Houston before the draft. If LaMarcus Aldridge, Rudy Gay or Brandon Roy was available when the Rockets came on the clock at No. 7, the Grizzlies would send veteran Shane Battier to Houston for the pick. Gay was still there when it was time for the Rockets to pick, so the Grizzlies had a deal. If only it were that easy. Because of the complex machinations behind getting a trade involving players already under contract approved, the deal could not be announced immediately. So Commissioner David Stern announced that the Rockets were picking Gay, and the UConn swingman came out from backstage and donned a Rockets cap. In the interim, the story leaked out and it wasn’t until much later in the night that all the steps were completed to allow the teams to officially announce the trade. That kind of limbo is commonplace on NBA draft night, creating confusion for players and viewers about who is going where. “I think we need to change this process on draft night to clean up the awkwardness because it’s terrible,” said Penn, now an analyst for ESPN. “And it gets worse every SEE DRAFT | B3
Woods returns to tour BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press
BETHESDA, Md. — Bill Haas is the defending champion and an afterthought at the Quicken Loans National. He would have expected nothing less. T iger Woods is back at Congressional. And this time, the tournament host will be doing more than just handing out the trophy. Woods returns to competition Thursday for the first time in three months because of back pain that showed up occasionally, then more frequently, and ultimately led him have surgery just a week before the Masters. It’s the second-longest hiatus of his career next to the eight months he missed from knee surgery in 2008 after he won the U.S. Open. “I’m not the one that moves the needle here on this tour,” Haas said with a smile. “So I think we’re all loving having him back here playing. We want him to play healthy and we want him to contend in majors, because he’s the lifeline of our tour and the reason everyone SEE GOLF | B2

United States' head coach Jurgen Klinsmann attends a press conference before a training session in Recife, Brazil, on Wednesday.The U.S. plays Germany at 9 a.m. today.
US fans will watch at work BY RACHEL COHEN The Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO — The first two U.S. games at this World Cup kicked off at favorable times for watching on television back home. The Americans’ group finale Thursday will be smack in the middle of the workday. The match against Germany, which could determine whether they advance to the knockout round, starts at noon on the East Coast, 9 a.m. out west. U.S. fans’ surging interest in the country’s World Cup fortunes, and the surging comfort level with watching games online and on mobile devices, come together Thursday in what could
be a milestone for live streaming. Sunday’s 2-2 tie with Portugal set records for WatchESPN, which allows subscribers who receive the network on their pay TV to stream the game for free. The average audience per minute was 490,000, with a total of nearly 1.4 million viewers. But that match was played on a weekend evening, when it was easy for Americans to gather in front of the TV. It was watched by a record 18.2 million people on ESPN, and another 6.5 million on Spanish-language Univision. “The good news is that at the end of the day tomorrow, it will be a great event, just like Sunday night was an event,” ESPN senior vice president Ryan Spoon said in a phone interview Wednesday.
Portugal’s tying goal in the last minute of stoppage time prevented the U.S. from clinching a spot in the knockout round. Now the Americans need at least a draw against mighty Germany to ensure they advance; they could still move on with a loss depending on the result of the game between Ghana and Portugal played at the same time. Indeed, even if fans get in front of a TV on Thursday, they still may use another device to keep an eye on the other Group G match. ESPN’s research has shown that many people now routinely use multiple screens to follow the action, and they use the same apps across multiple devices, Spoon said. They may check scores on an app on their phone,
view in-game highlights on a laptop, or watch a live stream on a tablet. Through 40 games, WatchESPN telecasts have averaged 720,000 live unique viewers, up 139 percent from 2010. At the time of the last World Cup, the iPad had been available for only a few months. Meanwhile, Spoon said, ESPN’s and other networks’ live-streaming products have gotten easier and easier to use. A hint of the potential for Thursday’s game comes from last week’s match between Brazil and Mexico, played on a Tuesday afternoon.

Brazil vs. Chile opens knockout stage BY TALES AZZONI The Associated Press TERESOPOLIS, Brazil — The knockout stage of the World Cup begins Saturday with host Brazil playing Chile, the South American rival it has dominated over the years. Brazil hasn’t lost to Chile in more than a decade, and has never lost to it on home soil. But for the first time Chile arrives to face its neighbor with plenty of confidence, thanks in part to a convincing campaign in Group B that included a victory over defending champion Spain. The Chileans say there is no reason they can’t also surprise the hosts, and Brazilians
admit they are wary of the threat. Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari warned about Chile more than six months ago, following the World Cup draw. Despite the possibility of the hosts facing Spain or the Netherlands, the team’s nemesis in the quarterfinals of the 2010 tournament, Scolari said at the time that his biggest concern was the Chilean squad, which he hoped “wouldn’t qualify” for the second round. “When I talked about Chile then, people made fun of me, they said Chile wasn’t good enough,” Scolari said. “But I already knew the work of coach (Jorge) Sampaoli and their players. We already knew how they played.”
Brazil hasn’t lost to Chile since a World Cup qualifier in 2000. Since then, it has won 10 of their 12 matches. They met three times in World Cups, with Brazil winning 4-2 in the semifinals of the 1962 tournament in Chile, then 4-1 in the last 16 in 1998 and 3-0 at the same stage in 2010. “We can’t take that into consideration,” Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo said. “A lot of people say that we don’t have anything to lose, but on the contrary, we have a historic opportunity to eliminate the hosts. It’s our longtime rival, one with a lot of titles. It’s up to us to do it.” SEE KNOCKOUT | B2
Serena rolls into the 3rd round; Nadal rallies LONDON (AP) — Five-time champion Serena Williams wasted no time in reaching the third round at Wimbledon, routing Chanelle Scheepers 6-1, 6-1 on Thursday in just 49 minutes. Chasing her 18th Grand Slam title, the top-seeded American overwhelmed the 94th-ranked South African in the opening match on Court 1 at the All England Club. Williams served eight aces and had 26 winners. The 30-year-old Scheepers, who had never won a match at
Wimbledon until this week, had only five winners to go with 13 unforced errors. Rafael Nadal was one point away from falling behind by two sets before rallying to beat Lukas Rosol, the Czech player who knocked him out at Wimbledon two years ago. The top-ranked Nadal, a twotime Wimbledon champion, raised his game just in time to avoid falling into a deep hole, rallying for a 4-6, 7-6 (6), 6-4, 6-4 victory on Centre Court to advance to the third round.

Sports Suarez banned for four months for biting episode RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — FIFA banned Uruguay striker Luis Suarez from all football activities for four months on Thursday for biting an opponent at the World Cup, a punishment that rules him out of the rest of the tournament and the start of the upcoming Premier League season. The ban also covers Uruguay’s next nine international games, which goes beyond the next four months and rules him out of next year’s Copa America. FIFA also fined the Liverpool striker 100,000 Swiss francs ($112,000). Suarez bit the shoulder of Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini during Uruguay’s 10 win in the group stage, but escaped unpunished as the referee did not see the incident. “Such behavior cannot be tolerated on any football pitch and in particular not at a FIFA World Cup, when the eyes of millions of people are on the stars on the field,” Claudio Sulser, chairman of the FIFA disciplinary committee, said in a statement. There was no immediate reaction from the Uruguay team. This is the third time Suarez has been banned for biting an opponent after similar incidents with Ajax in the Dutch league and Liverpool. He was given a 10match ban by the Premier League for biting Chelsea
defender Branislav Ivanovic toward the end of the 2012-13 season. The FIFA ban is effective immediately, meaning Suarez will miss Uruguay’s round-of-16 game against Colombia on Saturday. By banning Suarez from all football activities, FIFA also prohibited Suarez from entering a stadium at the World Cup. It also stops him from even training with Liverpool until the ban ends in late October. “He cannot be actively involved” with a club, FIFA spokeswoman Delia Fischer said. Suarez and the Uruguay football federation can appeal the sanctions, though Liverpool could not be formally involved in any legal challenge, Fischer said. The four-month ban includes Liverpool’s first three Champions League group-stage games in the five-time European champion’s return after a five-year absence. Suarez will also miss the first nine matches of the Premier League. Fischer said Suarez would still be allowed transfer to a different club during the ban, but would not be able to play for a new club until the sanction ends. Fischer said any appeal must first go to the FIFA appeal committee. If rejected, Suarez and Uruguay could take the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, Switzerland.

His plan for Thursday? “A little bit rusty, but really manage my way around this golf course,” he said. “This golf course is playing tough. The guys aren’t going to go really low here.” The competition: The Quicken Loans National has a stronger field than recent years with four of the top 10 in the world. Woods will see two of them in the opening two rounds. He plays at 8:12 a.m. on the 10th tee with Jordan Spieth and Jason Day. Spieth finished sixth last year when he was still not a PGA Tour member. Now he is No. 9 in the world. The pro-am: Woods played 18 holes in public for the first time since Doral in the Wednesday pro-am, and it wasn’t inspiring. He hit his opening tee shot in the water on the par-4 10th. He hit his next tee shot in the water on the 11th hole. He hit only two fairways on the back nine.

There were more fans for a Wednesday, more cameras, more interest, more speculation. “He’s the most impactful player that’s in the sport and has been for a long time,” Finchem said. “It gets people refocused on his career and his drive. Short-term benefits are that it sells more tickets, but that’s not really important. It’s just having him in the sport. He’s always been a positive influence and he’ll always be as long as he’s playing.” Here’s what to look for in the return of the 14-time major champion: The rust: When he announced last week he was ready to start competing, Woods acknowledged there would be rust.

Messi leads Argentina past Nigeria BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
What today’s matches mean PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil — Argentina beat Nigeria 3-2 in the last World Cup Group F match on Wednesday, with Lionel Messi and Ahmed Musa scoring two goals each before Marcos Rojo kneed in the winner. Argentina topped the group and Nigeria also advanced despite the loss, becoming the first African team in the Round of 16 in Brazil. Messi had his best match of the World Cup so far, scoring twice in the first half to boost his tournament total to four goals, and cutting WCup repeatedly up Nigeria’s defense Recap with dazzling runs and clever passes. played “We against a team that wanted to play,” Messi said. “I think we saw a good Argentina. We need to continue on this path.” The Argentina captain needed less than three minutes to finish Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama’s clean sheet in Brazil, slamming in the rebound after Angel Di Maria’s shot bounced off the post. Nigeria replied within a minute as Musa cut in from the left and beat Sergio Romero with a curling shot toward the far post. Nearing halftime Messi tested Enyeama with a 25-meter free kick that the goalkeeper struggled to push to a corner. Having found his aim, Messi was ice cold when Nigeria gave up another free kick just moments later from a slightly shorter distance. The second half started at the same furious pace as the first, with two goals within the first five minutes. First Musa took advantage of confusion in the Argentine defense to score his second. Then Rojo made it 3-2 as he got his right knee on a corner kick three minutes later. Switzerland 3, Honduras 0: Xherdan Shaqiri scored all three goals Wednesday to put Switzerland into the second round of the World Cup with a lopsided victory over Honduras. The Swiss will next face Lionel Messi and Argentina on Tuesday in Sao Paulo. Shaqiri scored his first goal in the sixth minute, dribbling into a crowd of defenders and curling a shot into the net off the underside of the crossbar. In the 31st, he collected a pass from Josip Drmic after a defensive error and easily
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Seven teams are chasing three places in the knockout stage of the World Cup on Thursday. Here are the basic permutations: GROUP G United States vs Germany: Germany would win the group with at least a draw, and is likely to go through even with a loss because of its superior goal difference. The U.S. also only needs a draw to be sure of advancing, and would top the group with a win. The Americans would advance even with a loss if Ghana-Portugal is a draw. Portugal vs Ghana: Both teams need a win coupled with a decisive result in the other game to have a chance of advancing on goal difference as it would leave two teams tied on four points. However, Portugal also has a minus-4 goal differential to make up, with Germany on plus 4, the U.S. on plus 1 and Ghana on minus 1. GROUP H South Korea vs Belgium: Belgium has already advanced with two victories and needs at least a draw to top the group. South Korea needs a victory to have a chance to go through and hope Algeria doesn’t beat Russia to have a chance of advancing. If Russia wins or draws against Algeria, South Korea can finish second on goal difference — although it currently trails both teams in that category. Algeria has three points, while Russia and South Korea both have one. Algeria vs Russia: Algeria would advance with a victory and could even top the group if Belgium loses to South Korea. A draw would be enough for Algeria, as long as South Korea does not beat Belgium.
beat Honduras goalkeeper Noel Valladares. Shaqiri completed his hat trick in the 71st. Drmic did well to beat Honduras defender Victor Bernardez on the left and pass to a charging Shaqiri, who one-timed his shot past a diving Valladares. Switzerland finished second in Group E behind France, which held Ecuador to a 0-0 draw in the other game. France 0, Ecuador 0: France topped Group E despite being held to a scoreless draw by 10-man Ecuador. Ecuador was reduced to 10 men after Antonio Valencia was shown a straight red card in the 50th minute for digging his studs into the leg of French defender Lucas Digne. But Ecuador may feel upset that France center half Mamadou Sakho was not shown a red card in the eighth minute when he appeared to elbow Oswaldo Minda in the face during a France corner. Then, in a late incident off the ball, France forward Olivier Giroud jabbed his elbow in to Gabriel Achilier, who was standing behind him. France coach Didier Deschamps made six changes to his starting lineup, knowing his side was all but assured of advancing. France came closest to scoring when Antoine Griezmann hit the post in the 47th and then missed a string of late chances as its much-vaunted attacked failed to live up to the hype generated by last Friday’s 5-2 win against Switzerland.
An inspired Ecuador went close in the 82nd when substitute midfielder Alex Ibarra broke down the right, cut inside center half Raphael Varane, and saw his powerful strike beaten away by goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. Bosnia-Herzegovina 3, Iran 1: Bosnia-Herzegovina ended Iran’s hopes of advancing to the knockout stages from Group F, and registered its first World Cup win in the process. The Bosnians, who were already out of contention, took a commanding 2-0 lead with goals from Edin Dzeko in the 23rd and Miralem Pjanic in the 53rd before Iran hit back in a desperate late bid to qualify for the second round. Reza Ghoochannejhad gave some hope to the Iranians with a tap-in goal in the 81st, but Avdija Vrsaljevic replied immediately with his low shot from the edge of the area to restore the two-goal lead. Iran needed a win to have any chance of advancing. “Sorry to our opponents, but this was also an important win for us so we could hold our heads up high leaving this tournament,” Bosnia-Herzegovina coach Safet Susic said. “Throughout the match we were those who wanted to win more.” The Bosnians were already out of contention at their first World Cup following consecutive losses to Argentina and Nigeria. Iran coach Carlos Queiroz announced after the match that he wouldn’t be renewing his contract.

We have to think about what’s in front of us now. Now it’s a different story, with new players. Anything is possible.” Brazil has made it to the quarterfinals of the World Cup every time since 1994. Its last elimination in the second round was against Argentina in 1990. Chile has only once advanced past the second round, at home in 1962. Brazil has four players going into Saturday’s match with a yellow card, including striker Neymar, captain Thiago Silva and defensive midfielder Luiz Gustavo. Univision Digital was averaging 1.2 million live streams per match, a 197 percent increase from the 2010 World Cup. Spoon, who oversees digital products, was presenting at the Google developer conference Wednesday in San Francisco. The ESPN booth was quite popular, he said — partly because attendees wanted to watch the live streams of the World Cup games on display.

Dallas gets Chandler back in 6-player deal
Schilling says that his cancer is in remission
DALLAS (AP) — The Mavericks and New York Knicks agreed Wednesday to a six-player trade that returns center Tyson Chandler to Dallas three years after he helped win a championship only to leave right away in free agency. The Mavericks sent guards Jose Calderon, Shane Larkin and Wayne Ellington and center Samuel Dalembert to the Knicks for Chandler and point guard Raymond Felton. The Knicks also get both of Dallas’ draft picks Thursday night, a pair of second-round selections at Nos. 34 and 51. New York didn’t have a draft pick before the first major personnel move since Phil Jackson took over as team president. “The journey to build this team for the upcoming sea-
son and beyond continues,” Jackson said. “We have added players with this move that will fit right in to our system while maintaining future flexibility.” New York is hoping to keep Carmelo Anthony despite the star forward planning to opt out of his contract and become a free agent on July 1. The Mavericks are reportedly on a short list of new destinations Anthony will also consider. Chandler was the emotional catalyst for the Dirk Nowitzki-led Mavericks when they beat the Miami Heat in six games to win the franchise’s first title in 2011. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban made the much-debated decision not to offer him a long-term contract because of concerns over how the new
labor deal would keep Dallas from making other moves. Chandler, who had a history of injuries, turned down a oneyear deal worth about $20 million for the security of a four-year, $55 million contract with the Knicks. The 31-year-old Chandler is going into the final season of that deal at $14.5 million, and Felton has one year at $3.8 million with a player option for another season in the same range. Calderon just finished the first season of a four-year, $28 million contract with the Mavericks, who also signed Monta Ellis to a multiyear deal last summer. It was the first time Dallas had committed to any player beyond one year since Nowitzki signed his most recent extension in 2010.
DRAFT
trades conform to the NBA’s complex collective bargaining agreement rules and both teams have to conduct a trade call to finalize the deal. The league is looking at options to expedite the process, but wants to avoid rushing deals through that may fall apart. Here are spots to watch for potential deals on Thursday: ■ No. 1: The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly trying to decide between Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker for the first overall pick. They also are taking calls on trade offers and are looking to make a splash in
an effort to entice LeBron James to come back home. The Cavs were interested in dealing for Timberwolves All-Star Kevin Love, but Love has given them the cold shoulder so far. ■ No. 3: The Philadelphia 76ers have two picks in the top 10 and GM Sam Hinkie already has a reputation as a wheeler and dealer in just over a year on the job. If the Sixers decide to pass on Joel Embiid, the Kansas big man who just had foot surgery, they could be looking to move up for Wiggins, or down to accumulate assets and continue their rebuild.

Sports Vanderbilt coach Tim Corbin holds the trophy as he celebrates with his players after Vanderbilt defeated Virginia 3-2 in the deciding game of the best-of-three NCAA baseball College World Series.
Rare homer leads Vandy to national title OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Dansby Swanson and Rhett Wiseman came oh-so close to hitting home runs for Vanderbilt early in the College World Series. John Norwood finally got a ball to clear the fence, and his timing was impeccable — in the third and deciding game of the CWS finals. His tie-breaking homer into the left-field bullpen against Nick Howard in the eighth inning Wednesday night at TD Ameritrade Park delivered a 3-2 victory over Virginia that gave the Commodores’ their first national championship in a men’s sport. “I just was hoping that it didn’t have enough top spin that it would hit the fence,” coach Tim Corbin said. “They had seen two already — Dansby’s and Rhett’s — and they were 6 inches away from being home runs. “But Johnny’s strength and bat speed, with the velocity of Howard, that doesn’t happen to that kid. A 97-mile-anhour fastball, and for someone
to turn it around like that, takes a great amount of ability.” TD Ameritrade Park had yielded only two homers in this CWS and a total of 24 in the four years the event has been played at the cavernous stadium. “I thought it was gone, but you never know in this park,” Norwood said. “I was just hoping it went out, and if it didn’t, I knew my teammates would pick me up. It’s a home run, but it’s also a team effort to get here. We were confident the whole entire year.” It was Norwood’s third homer of the year, his first since April 19, and Vanderbilt’s first since May 16. It also was only the third home run in 16 CWS games this year and the 22nd in 72 games by the Commodores (51-21). “He put a heck of a swing on an elevated fastball, and he hit it and knew it was gone,” Swanson said. “So I had a little trust in him that it would get out.” The Cavaliers (53-16) loaded the bases with one out
in the eighth when Adam Ravenelle hit Kenny Towns. But Mike Papi was forced out at home on a chopper to Ravenelle, and Brandon Downes grounded out. The title was secured when Ravenelle struck out Daniel Pinero. The school’s only other title came in women’s bowling in 2007. “This dog pile was by far the best,” first baseman Zander Wiel said. “These guys are my brothers and to celebrate this with them is just incredible. It’s just so special to be a part of history. Everybody here represents Vanderbilt in the best way, and
I’m glad to be a part of the first men’s national championship in history.” Swanson, Vandy’s second baseman, was chosen the CWS Most Outstanding Player. Swanson batted .323 in the CWS, scored five runs, drove in two and stole three bases. He played flawlessly in the field. “When you’ve got guys backing up each other like we do, anything is possible,” Swanson said. After the last out, Photos by The Associated Press Vanderbilt players grabbed the championship trophy Vanderbilt player Brian Miller gets down on one knee to propose to and hoisted Corbin on their Megan Bonds, of Newport Beach, Calif., after Vanderbilt defeated shoulders.

Price in control as Rays shut down Pirates, 5-1
The Associated Press
Seattle Mariners pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma, third from right, talks with Mariners pitching coach Rick Waits (47) with the help of an interpreter, second from right, during Wednesday’s game against the Boston Red Sox.
Seattle can’t finish off sweep of Boston, fall 5-4 SEATTLE (AP) — From Lloyd McClendon’s viewpoint, it’s because Seattle’s Hisashi Iwakuma has pitched with such consistency that his last two performances seem so shocking. “The problem is he’s been so good it hasn’t happened before,” McClendon said after Iwakuma lasted just four innings in Seattle’s 5-4 loss to Boston on Wednesday night. “It seems like something weird but it happens to everybody. He’ll be ready for his next start.” Iwakuma was knocked around again and has given up 10 earned runs in just nine innings in his last two outings. This time it was Boston slugger David Ortiz doing the damage with a two-run homer in the first — No. 449 for his career — and a line drive RBI single in the third. Iwakuma (5-4) has been bothered by a sore neck. He gave up eight hits and five earned runs to Boston and could not record an out in the fifth before getting pulled. But he would not attribute his poor performances to the neck discomfort. “I do feel it but it is not effecting my pitching at all,” Iwakuma said through an interpreter. “I’m responsible for my last two starts and I need to reflect on what I’ve
done wrong and prepare for the next one.” Seattle saw its five-game winning streak snapped, but was nearly able to keep it going despite Iwakuma’s struggles. Kyle Seager and Mike Zunino both homered in the second inning, Brad Miller added a solo shot in the eighth and Seattle had the tying run at second base in the ninth but couldn’t come up with one more hit. “We’ve done a good job winning games late but this was one we just didn’t come through with,” Seattle’s Dustin Ackley said. Seager continued his tear at home with his 12th home run of the season — 11th at Safeco Field — leading off the second against Boston starter Clay Buchholz. Logan Morrison followed with a single and Zunino lined his 11th homer to give Seattle a 3-2 lead. But that was about all the Mariners could do against Buchholz. Endy Chavez and James Jones led off the sixth with singles, but Buchholz (3-4) got a shallow fly ball from Robinson Cano and Seager grounded into an inningending double play. Miller homered on the first pitch of the eighth inning from Buchholz, cutting the deficit to 5-4. After Jonny
Gomes made a diving catch of Stefen Romero’s liner, Buchholz was pulled. Andrew Miller entered and struck out pinch-hitters Willie Bloomquist and Cole Gillespie to end the eighth. Koji Uehara pitched the ninth for his 16th save despite allowing two runners and Boston was able to avoid being swept. “They made me work hard,” Buchholz said. “I knew they were swinging. That’s about the most aggressive team that I’ve pitched to in my career. For the number of pitches that I threw that was a grinding, stressful outing knowing I can’t make a mistake.” The Mariners were able to stay close late because of five shutout innings from relievers Tom Wilhelmsen and Brandon Maurer. They allowed just three hits and struck out seven. “They threw the ball tremendous. I don’t want those guys overshadowed tonight,” McClendon said. Ortiz plunked a two-run shot off the windows of the cafe in right field at Safeco Field for a 2-0 lead, his 18th of the season. He drove in another run in the third on a line drive that barely cleared the glove of Romero in right field.
LINCECUM
16th no-hitter in Giants’ history. Just one other pitcher has thrown two for the team: Christy Mathewson for the New York Giants more than 100 years ago. “It’s hard enough to do one,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “To do two, that puts you in a little different class. I couldn’t be happier.” Lincecum joined Sandy Koufax, Randy Johnson and Roy Halladay as the only pitchers with two Cy Young awards and two no-hitters. “Just to be in that company
allows me a chance to pat myself on the back a little bit,” he said. Making the performance even sweeter was the fact that Lincecum got two hits of his own, becoming the first pitcher with two hits in a no-hitter since Rick Wise hit two homers for Philadelphia against Cincinnati on June 23, 1971. “Regardless of what they did, I think it’s cool I got two hits anyway because up to today I only had one and a pretty poor batting average,”
From Page B1 try to keep attacking the way that I was,” he said. The right-hander with two NL Cy Young Awards became just the second pitcher in major league history to no-hit the same team twice. Hall of Famer Addie Joss did it for Cleveland against the Chicago White Sox with a perfect game in 1908 and a no-hitter in 1910. Lincecum (6-5) threw the
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — David Price struck out 11, becoming the first pitcher in 10 years to fan at least 10 in five straight starts, and Tampa Bay beat Pittsburgh. Price (6-7) gave up five hits and one walk in 8 1-3 innings, leaving the game after Andrew McCutchen’s home run in the ninth. The last pitcher with five straight starts of 10 strikeouts was Minnesota’s Johan Santana in 2004. Price also set a franchise record for strikeouts in a month with 54. He went 2-3 in five June starts. Ben Zobrist’s RBI triple highlighted the Rays’ threerun first inning off MLB Charlie Recap Morton. Morton ( 4 - 9 ) struck out a career-high 11 in seven innings, giving up four hits. Kevin Kiermaier drove in two runs for the Rays, who won for the ninth time in 29 games. Angels 6, Twins 2: Garrett Richards pitched four-hit ball into the eighth inning to win his fourth straight decision, and the Angels earned their fifth straight victory. Erick Aybar got two hits and stole two bases as Los Angeles won for the 14th time in 16 games at Angel Stadium, moving to a season-high 10 games over .500 at 43-33. The Angels are unbeaten on their homestand, matching their longest winning streak of the year. Oswaldo Arcia homered for the Twins, who have lost seven straight road games for the first time since September 2011. Yohan Pino (0-1) got through just three innings in his second major league appearance. Brewers 9, Nationals 2: Scooter Gennett had a grand slam and five RBIs, Khris Davis added a solo shot, and Milwaukee roughed up ace Stephen Strasburg in a rout of Washington. Homer-prone starter Marco Estrada (7-4) allowed
just two hits — and no homers — and pitched effectively into the seventh for the Brewers, who bounced back a day after falling 4-2 in 16 innings to Washington. Davis finished with three RBIs. Strasburg (6-6) was tagged for eight hits and seven runs in 4 2/3 innings. It matched a career-worst outing for Strasburg, who also allowed seven earned runs in a twoinning start against Miami on July 12, 2013. Cardinals 9, Rockies 6: Matt Adams homered and drove in two runs, Matt Holliday had three hits, and St. Louis rallied to beat Colorado. Drew Stubbs homered, and Justin Morneau had two hits for the Rockies, who finished their homestand 1-5. The game featured the major league debuts of both starting pitchers. St. Louis’ Marco Gonzales was sharp early before faltering. Colorado’s Yohan Flande also started well before getting hit hard in his last inning. Yankees 5, Blue Jays 3: Mark Teixeira hit a two-run home run, Hiroki Kuroda won for the first time in four starts and the New York Yankees beat Toronto to snap a fourgame skid. Kuroda (5-5) won for the first time since May 28, at St. Louis, allowing three runs and eight hits in 6 1-3 innings. He gave up a home run to Jose Reyes on his first pitch. David Robertson got five outs for his 18th save in 20 tries. Orioles 5, White Sox 4, 12 innings: Nelson Cruz hit a tying grand slam in the eighth inning and David Lough scored the winning run on a wild pitch in the 12th, sending the Baltimore Orioles over the Chicago White Sox. There was a rain delay of more than an hour after the ninth inning ended. Dodgers 5, Royals 4: Wade Davis plunked A.J. Ellis with the bases loaded and two outs in the eighth inning, sending the Los Angeles Dodgers past Kansas City. Indians 6,
Diamondbacks 1: Corey Kluber gave Cleveland a much-needed quality start, pitching seven effective innings to help beat Arizona and end a four-game losing streak. The Indians ran through their bullpen in a 14-inning game the night before Kluber (7-5) gave them a lift. Michael Brantley homered and had two RBIs against Chase Anderson (5-3). Athletics 8, Mets 5: Yoenis Cespedes hit a threerun double, slumping Brandon Moss had a two-run homer and the Oakland Athletics jumped all over an ineffective Zack Wheeler and the New York Mets. Coco Crisp homered and had three hits as the AL West leaders built an eight-run cushion for Brad Mills (1-0), who took a shutout into the seventh inning for his first major league victory in almost two years. Marlins 3, Phillies 2: Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit a two-run double for Miami, and Henderson Alvarez threw 6 2-3 strong innings. Alvarez (5-3) allowed two runs — one earned — and seven hits. He is 3-0 with an 0.78 ERA in his last seven starts. Reds 4, Cubs 1: Mat Latos pitched seven impressive innings for his first win of the season and Jay Bruce had two run-scoring doubles that led Cincinnati. With the wind blowing in on a cold summer night, Devin Mesoraco’s five-game homer streak came to an end. The Reds catcher was tied with Adam Dunn, Ken Griffey Jr., Johnny Bench, George Crowe and Ted Kluszewski for the franchise record. Braves 4, Astros 0: Justin Upton homered for the second straight game and had three RBIs and Alex Wood pitched seven scoreless innings to help the Atlanta Braves beat Houston Astros. Shae Simmons and Juan Jaime finished the three-hitter as the Astros were shut out for the 10th time this season.
Lincecum said. “I got that thing above .100 and I feel much better about it.” Lincecum won NL Cy Young awards in 2008 and ‘09 and helped lead the Giants to their first World Series title in San Francisco the following season. As age and wear and tear ate away at his velocity, Lincecum was forced to change his approach to pitching. It hasn’t been an easy transformation at times as he posted a losing record the past two seasons as his ERA hovered around 5.00.
He was even relegated to the bullpen when the Giants won it all again in 2012, but was brought back with a $35 million, two-year deal last offseason for moments just like this. “I think it’s been a battle for him at times to make that transformation to what he is now,” Bochy said. Lincecum made quick work of the San Diego hitters in the late innings. He drew a standing ovation when he batted in the eighth, then got another ovation when
he took the mound to begin the ninth. Lincecum struck out pinch-hitter Chris Denorfia to open the ninth. Pinch-hitter Yasmani Grandal followed with a tapper back to Lincecum, who tossed to first for the out. Will Venable was up next and Lincecum retired him on an easy grounder to second base. Lincecum took a few steps toward first when the ball was hit, stopped to watch the play and clapped his hand into his glove when it was over.

BRIDGE Have you ever made a wild overbid on a deal because it felt like the right thing to do at the time? Of course you have; we all have. But then you probably found yourself in a hopeless contract, went down and apologized to your partner. Sometimes, though, you might have been able to call on the assistance of your opponents. In today’s deal, South is in four spades. West leads the club jack. That wins the first trick and South ruffs the
second club. How should declarer continue? When North rebid one no-trump to show a balanced 12-14 points, South might have settled for a two-spade signoff, but one can understand a gameinvitational three-spade rebid. Here, North would probably have passed because he does not have a very suitable hand for a spade contract. Four spades appears to be one level too high. South seems destined to lose two spades, one heart and one club. But he has a Machiavellian chance. He should cross to the dummy in a red suit and call for the spade jack. Many Easts, looking at the queen and 10, would not be able to resist the temptation to cover with the queen. Then, though, after South wins with his ace, there will be a stunned silence when West is forced to play his king. Declarer drives out the spade 10 and claims his contract. Although the opponents are supposedly trying to defeat your contract, remember that many of them will misdefend if you give them half a chance.

Idling may not hurt car, but it hurts environment Dear Tom and Ray: I’ve been a school psychologist since 1978, and my assignment has changed somewhat during that time, so it has given me some experiences in several different school buildings. In my current assignment, half an hour before the end of the school day, parents begin parking in a row outside the front door of the school buildings and sit in their cars, with the engines running, until dismissal. I won’t embarrass people in this district by reporting the name, but the ZIP code is 50548. I laughed at their poor judgment and wasted gas. If Wiki-answers is right about an average idling car using 0.8 gallons per hour, they are spending $256.96 over the course of 180 school days, at current gas prices. Then I came home and told my husband about it. He’s retired and goes out for coffee three mornings a week. He told me

CAR
TALK
TOM AND RAY MAGLIOZZI that he drives to the coffee shop over an hour before it opens so he can sit in his favorite parking spot and listen to his favorite CDs on his truck’s CD player. Those parents running their cars outside the school buildings look like wise decision-makers by comparison. Does idling a Toyota Tacoma for over an hour at a time hurt the engine? — Ann RAY: I think the Wikianswers estimate is high, Ann. I’d guess an idling car uses closer to a quarter of a gallon an hour. Maybe a third. T O M : But that’s still throwing away a dollar an hour just to sit there. Not to mention the five or 10 pounds of carbon dioxide you’re adding to the environment during that time. RAY: Unfortunately, we can’t help you by claiming that it’s bad for the car — the car really doesn’t care. In fact, as long as the cooling system is functioning properly, idling is pretty easy on the car; the engine’s not working hard, and the rest of the car is just sitting there. TOM: So it’s really an
environmental and economic issue. If your husband is not motivated by either of those — or those issues are overridden for him by the pleasure he gets from his car stereo and alone time — you may be out of luck. R A Y : In terms of the school, though, you might want to suggest a “no idling” policy. Lots of states and municipalities have implemented such policies, and a school seems like a particularly good place to do it. TOM: By sitting there idling for half an hour, not only are the parents contributing to global warming — a problem their kids will have to live with — but they’re adding pollution to the immediate school environment, where, presumably, kids are playing and learning. RAY: Or, playing and not learning, in the case of my kids. TOM: So you might want to start a movement at your school, and see if they’ll set a policy and put up some signs along the curb requiring parents to shut off their engines while they wait. RAY: And let your husband know that you’ve heard there’s a new invention that might interest him. It’s called “indoors.” And he might want to avail himself of it. TOM: Although from his point of view, the great indoors has two serious disadvantages: It probably doesn’t have as good a sound system as his truck. And, even worse, when you’re indoors, you sometimes have to interact with other human beings. I’m guessing that’s a deal-breaker for him, Ann.
FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 2014 Don’t take chances with your future. Stick firmly to your plans and don’t be distracted by risky or uncertain developments. There may be some rough patches, but you will overcome them if you stay focused and determined. Success is within reach if you persevere. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Don’t behave emotionally or overreact if you want to avoid discord. Feelings will be hurt if you don’t think before you act.

The documents you thought were missing will come to light. Financial or legal concerns will proceed favorably today. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Don’t ever be afraid to ask for help. Admitting that there are some things that you can’t handle alone may be difficult, but it is not a sign of weakness. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You can save yourself worry and doubt if you keep your secrets to yourself. If you want to get anything done, you will need to do the work without help from others.

— Your unusual, whimsical attitude will draw people to your side. Take this opportunity to share your ideas and drum up the support you need to follow through with your plans. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Your tendency to talk will take over today. Resist the urge to blurt out whatever is on your mind. You will get into hot water if you don’t think before you speak. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Inspiration will strike if you take part in a cultural or artistic event. The ideas generated can be applied to a project that currently has you stymied. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — If you want to make the most of your life, follow your dreams. You may have several options, so decide what you really want. Welcome change; without it you cannot move ahead. SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 2014 This will be a year of new beginnings, growth and prosperity. By adopting a can-do attitude, you will find that long-difficult goals will finally fall into place. Engaging in adventurous activities will introduce you to potential partners or employers. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You will have some unsettling moments if you come on too strong when socializing. Don’t make any overtures that might be taken the wrong way. Listen carefully before you take action. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Confusion will set in if you don’t have a clear-cut picture of what’s happening around you. Ask questions, but don’t offer advice until you have all the facts. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — The opposition you face today will only serve to strengthen your resolve. You are on an upward spiral, and nothing can hold you back as long as you maintain a positive attitude. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You may not want to venture too far from home. The people you encounter while out and about

will seem particularly touchy and irritable. You will be better off keeping a low profile. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Overcoming a setback within a partnership will lead to a deeper understanding and mutual respect. Starting a selfimprovement program will bring positive results and boost your confidence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) — A humanitarian gesture on your part will have a profound effect on those around you. Your generous spirit will not go unnoticed. An unexpected reward is coming your way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Family problems will come to a head if you are too controlling or stubborn. You can stave off an emotional outburst if you make time for your partner and close relatives. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Take a long look at where you are and where you are headed. It may be time to revise your game plan. An idea you have will hold the key to making extra cash. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Expect to encounter a complication regarding your vocational journey, but don’t give up on your dreams. Look for an unconventional way to profit using your unique talents. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Stick to your budget and don’t deplete your savings by making frivolous or spur-of-the-moment purchases. Find a way to trim your spending habits as well as bring in extra cash. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Get out and socialize. Attend a lecture or presentation where you can share your ideas. A chance encounter will help you form a new business partnership. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — If you are not doing what you have always dreamed about, ask yourself why not. Consider putting more energy into improving your credentials and boosting your profile.
