WASHINGTON — A top Obama administration official says no one, not even children trying to escape violent countries, can illegally enter the United States without eventually facing deportation proceedings.

But Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson basically acknowledged Sunday that such proceedings might be long delayed, and he said that coping with floods of unaccompanied minors crossing the border is a legal and humanitarian dilemma for the United States.

Supreme Court to consider nonprofits’ contraceptives

BY MARK SHERMAN AND RACHEL ZOLL WASHINGTON — How much distance from an immoral act is enough?

That’s the difficult question behind the next legal dispute over religion, birth control and the health law that is likely to be resolved by the Supreme Court.

The issue in more than four dozen lawsuits from faith-affiliated charities, colleges and hospitals that oppose some or all contraception as immoral is how far the Obama administration must go to accommodate them.

The justices on June 30 relieved businesses with religious objections of their obligation to pay for women’s contraceptives among a range of preventive services the new law calls for in their health plans.

Religious-oriented nonprofit groups already could opt out of covering the contraceptives. But the organizations say the accommodation provided by the

administration does not go far enough because, though they are not on the hook financially, they remain complicit in the provision of government-approved contraceptives to women covered by their plans.

“Anything that forces unwilling religious believers to be part of the system is not going to pass the test,” said Mark Rienzi, senior counsel for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which represents many of the faith-affiliated nonprofits. Hobby Lobby Inc., winner of its Supreme Court case last month, also is a Becket Fund client.

The high court will be asked to take on the issue in its term that begins in October. A challenge from the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana, probably will be the first case to reach the court.

The Obama administration argues that the accommodation creates a generous moral and financial buffer between religious objectors and funding birth conSEE SUPREME | A8

Some U.S.-bound air travelers must turn on phones

BY WILL LESTER The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Passengers at some overseas airports that offer U.S.bound flights will soon be required to power on their electronic devices in order to board their flights. The measure is intended to enhance aviation security at a time of increased threats.

The Transportation Security Administration says it is adding the requirement that passengers coming to the U.S. from some airports must turn on devices such as cellphones before boarding.

It says devices that won’t power up won’t be allowed on planes and those travelers may have to undergo additional screening.

“As the traveling public knows, all electronic devices are screened by security officers,” the TSA said in the Sunday release announcing the new steps.

COOS BAY — Ron Wyden didn’t have concrete answers for Coos Bay residents dreading the looming Jordan Cove Energy Project decision.

The audience was smaller — and tamer — than the Democratic U.S. senator’s tense town hall last fall, but the focus of Saturday’s town hall at the Egyptian Theatre was the same: Jordan Cove.

“I’m leaving with a sense that the South Coast is really anxious,” Wyden told The World afterward.

The liquefied natural gas export terminal’s regulatory process doesn’t really begin, he said, until the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s environmental impact statement is released. The draft EIS is expected any day.

“This community is going to have a chance to be part of a real debate,” he said at the end of the town hall. “My goal is to make sure when we’ve had that debate, that even those who don’t agree with the judgment will be

COOS BAY — A number of groups make up the annual Family Fun Day at Mingus Park each Fourth of July, but few put in as many hours as the Coos Bay Fire Department. Their leader says they wouldn’t have it any other way.

Coos Bay Fire Chief Mark Anderson was among those manning the fishing poles to help the kids land a fish during their annual derby.

This was the 25th year that the city of Coos Bay hosted a day of family-oriented activities for Independence Day, which began Friday with the More online: M a y o r ’ s The World’s Tim Firecracker Run. Novotny filmed There are always some of the holicrafts, food, day festivities.

See the video at entertainment theworldlink.com. and activities to keep the kids happy, but the fishing derby, cosponsored by the O r e g o n Department of Fish and Wildlife, is a particular fan favorite.

It is also one the Fire Department looks forward to, especially when it’s coupled with the annual fireworks display that they handle later in the evening.

Although, Anderson admits, it does make for a lengthy day.

“We start about four o’clock in the morning, (as we) have to collect the fish from the Elk River Fish Hatchery, and get setup,” Anderson said.

Later, as the event at Mingus Park winds down around 3 p.m., the firefighters start to focus on the fireworks.

They head out to the Eastside district and start clearing an area for the various launch tubes to be dug into the ground. They are also on the front lines when the fireworks start flying around 10 p.m., making sure the display goes off without a hitch.

“It does make for a long day, but it’s so much fun seeing these kids catch fish, and we just know people are enjoying the fireworks,” Anderson said.

Other events that kept families busy this year at Mingus Park included face painting, free flags, the Furry Friends Therapy Dogs, Coos Bay Elks, Tender Spirit Ranch, Happy Feet Professional Pedicures, the Coos Forest Protective Association, Polka Dot Ice Cream, and there was even some free swimming at the Mingus Park pool.

TSA does not conduct screening abroad, but has the ability to set screening criteria and processes for flights flying to the U.S. from abroad, according to a Homeland Security Department official, who was not allowed to discuss the changes publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion

Making anti-Koch law OK While much of Washington grapples with international crises, chronic economic troubles and upcoming midterm elections, Senate Democrats are steadily pushing forward with what they hope will become the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

The proposed amendment would give Congress authority to regulate every dollar raised, and every dollar spent, by every federal campaign and candidate in the country.

It would give state legislatures the power to do the same with state races.

Framed by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid as a response to campaign spending by the conservative billionaire Koch brothers, the proposed amendment, written by Democratic Senators Tom Udall and Michael Bennet and co-sponsored by 42 other Senate Democrats, would vastly increase the power of Congress to control elections and political speech.

The problem is, Democrats aren’t quite sure exactly what the amendment should say. In a move that received virtually no attention, they recently rewrote the measure — and in the process revealed its fatal flaw.

BYRON This is the heart of the YORK amendment as originally written by Udall and Columnist Bennet: “To advance the fundamental principle of political equality for all, and to protect the integrity of the legislative and electoral processes,Congress shall have power to regulate the raising and spending of money and in-kind equivalents with respect to federal elections,including through setting limits on: “(1) the amount of contributions to candidates for nomination for election to, or for election to, federal office; and “(2) the amount of funds that may be spent by, in support of, or in opposition to such candidates.”

There are literally no limits to congressional power in those words. In the name of “political equality for all,” Democrats proposed to change the Constitution to allow lawmakers to impose any restriction they want on campaign fundraising and spending — in other words, on campaigning itself.

Republicans characterized the UdallBennet amendment as a clear infringement of First Amendment free speech rights, as well as a particularly naked power-grab by Congress. Democrats responded that the proposed measure was in fact a reasonable response to the “problem” of money in politics, represented in their view by the Kochs.

“We need to make sure that there are reasonable, commonsense limitations in place to prevent wealthy special interests from tarnishing our democratic process,” Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin said in a June 18 meeting of the Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution.

To show how reasonable the measure is, Durbin proposed a new wording for the amendment. This is the heart of the revised version: “To advance democratic self-government and political equality, and to protect the integrity of government and the electoral process, Congress and the States may regulate and set reasonable limits on the raising and spending of money by candidates and others to influence elections.”

The big difference is the insertion of the word “reasonable,” which Democrats apparently believe will allay concerns about government overreach. Don’t worry — we’ll be reasonable!

But who decides what is reasonable? “I tell you, I am not content to have your free speech rights protected by the reasonableness of members of Congress,Republicans or Democrats,” Sen. Ted Cruz said to Durbin. “I have more faith in the Bill of Rights than I do in any elected officials.” There was a time, Cruz noted, when the U.S. Congress thought the Alien and Sedition Acts were reasonable.

Cruz also reminded the subcommittee that political speech can involve movies and books, and that corporations — the bad guys in so much Democratic rhetoric — include not only Koch Industries but organizations like the NAACP, the Sierra Club and the Human Rights Campaign.

“Under the text of this amendment, could Congress ban political movies?” Cruz asked Durbin. “Could Congress ban books? And would it be constitutionally permissible for Congress to prohibit the NAACP from speaking about politics?”

“What we are talking about is reasonable, content-neutral regulation,” an exasperated Durbin responded. “What the senator has suggested in his parade of horribles, going back to your logic course — reductio ad absurdum — is not going to carry the day in this debate, nor with the American people.”

“Are you willing to answer any of those questions yes or no?” asked Cruz.

“If you are going to reduce this to the absurd, we will be here for another hour and a half,” said Durbin.

Democrats passed the amendment; that was never in doubt. But the little-noticed debate showed that with a proposal as farreaching and deeply troubling as this constitutional amendment, inserting the word “reasonable” doesn’t make it so.

Letters to the Editor Grad coverage sorely lacking I was dismayed by, and disappointed with, The World’s lack of coverage of the local graduation ceremonies. In the past, The World provided significant coverage of all the local schools.

It is appalling and unacceptable for a local newspaper to ignore such positive community activities.

Ash trays better than new law Smoking on the boardwalk isn’t a problem of such magnitude that it warrants a new law. Laws require police to enforce them, paper work and court time.I am of the thought our police time could be better spent.

Providing ash trays would not be costly and would be a more sensible way of solving the problem.

Freedom for — or from, religion?

Billie Bergstrom’s letter to the editor of June 30, “We have freedom to worship,” spends a lot of text reviewing our constitutional right to freedom of religion. In his final paragraph, he attempts to support keeping the oversized Christian cross located upon the war memorial in Mingus Park. He explains that since atheists don’t agree with him that the giant Christian cross should be located in the public Mingus Park, he is being forced to stop believing in his God. How he reaches that deductive reasoning is beyond my comprehension. Does Mr. Bergstrom have a limited view on the freedom of speech right? His is OK, others not OK? Does he believe no one of any other religious belief (nonChristian) is against that

Christian cross being in Mingus Park, hmm? I have read these letters about the Mingus Park Christian cross and no one has even suggested to anyone to stop their personal religious beliefs.

Mr. Bergstom was arguing a red herring!

The Christian cross, seen as a representation of the instrument of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ,a Jewish rabbi that lived 2,000 years ago and thought to have supernatural powers by people who idolize him, is the best known religious symbol of Christianity.

That is despite the cross being used as a pagan symbol for millennia before the foundation of the Christian church. Lucky for us that the instrument of his capital punishment wasn’t in more modern times or his idol worshippers may have religious symbols representing a hangman’s noose or a firing squad, or a little model of a guillotine or electric chair hanging around their necks to display their devotion.Imagine any one of those stuck on top of the Vietnam veterans memorial in Mingus Park! But I digress.

Mr. Bergstom finishes his letter by evangelizing his personal religious belief, “God sent his son Jesus to die for all our sins.” And then redefines the purpose of the Christian cross, “That is why the cross is used to represent all the people who willingly died to keep us safe.” I suppose he maintains that his religious belief outtrumps that of everyone outside his circle of fellow believers, and everyone else should not complain about the oversized Christian cross planted upon the war memorial in Mingus Park.But that cannot be construed as freedom of religion (or freedom from religion) to everyone else!

Need new names on the ballot Local election time is rapidly approaching. Many are grumbling, ready to throw the professional politicians out at all levels. Why do they keep electing

incumbents?

In Coos Bay, four of the six councilor and the mayor positions will be on the ballot. In all likelihood we will see incumbents needing a few more years to do something. Has the amateurish approach to forming the SCCF demonstrated that it is time for change?

Many who demand change are promising to run for elected office — if only. The most often used excuse other than no time, especially by the younger blue collar folks, is that they do not have leadership skills. Yes they do!

There are many books on the subject of leadership. I’ve read too many. Don’t waste your time or money. Leadership is simply the ability to help any group of two or more achieve their common goals.

Anyone can be a leader. Like management styles, there are leadership styles. One style is no better or worse than another. We are all leaders, in some way, at some time.

In seeking leaders, we judge by low standards. There are few consensus effective leaders. Vince Lombardi, Steve Jobs and Martin Luther King come to mind. This community needs inspirational and effective leaders who take a proactive, not reactive, approach.

Those who have campaigned for office and failed should try again. Occasional failure is not fatal! Mother Teresa was in her 40s when she became a nun; Walt Disney was fired because he had no inspirational skills; Henry Ford went bankrupt at least five times; Ford did not stop making cars when folks rejected the Edsel; It took Tom Edison more than 8,000 attempts at the light bulb. We won’t always do things right; We won’t always do the right things.

Look to ourselves, not to others, if we want to make life better for us and for the community.

Anyone capable of managing themselves effectively; anyone with an ability to work effectively with others; anyone who anticipates and is not crushed by failure; anyone capable of working in a group environment and of placing the interests of the people of Coos

Bay ahead of their own interests; may be the leader that we seek.

I look forward to placing my X next to your name on the November ballot.

Mosquito wars are not over The citizens of Bandon are doing a very good job of documenting the mosquito problem and forwarding that information.

However, the mosquito problem documentation is going to multiple agencies. Consequently, to get an accurate count of the complaints, all those agencies must get together to combine the count.

By reporting to only one department, the total mosquito complaints are instantly available.

If you are having a mosquito problem, the only way the county will know about it is if you report it. Reporting the mosquito problem is as simple as calling the Coos County Environmental Health Department. That telephone number is 541-751-2431.

Reporting to this number will eliminate the issue of multiple agency’s getting together to combine their reports. If this summer is anything like last summer, you’ll want to keep this telephone number handy.

Again, to report mosquito problems, call Coos County Environmental Health at 541-7512431.

Caring for our nation’s heroes Your Views

BY REP. PETER DEFAZIO The U.S. government long ago made a solemn commitment to its veterans. If you are willing to die for your country, then the government will make sure you receive the best possible health care for the rest of your life. I take this commitment very seriously and that’s why I have been fighting to ensure the U.S. government keeps its promise despite the fiscal challenges.

But as we’ve all seen over recent months and years, that promise has been broken.

Like so many Americans, I was appalled by what happened at the Phoenix VA, where administrators placed thousands of veterans on a secret waiting list and denied them timely care.

At least 40 of those veterans reportedly died while waiting for the medical care they had earned.

The secret waiting list at the Phoenix VA demonstrated a complete lack of leadership and an utter failure to our veterans. I called on the Secretary of the VA to resign.

Thankfully he did, in May. Unfortunately the VA’s problems extend far beyond Phoenix.

A recent audit confirmed what I had been hearing from Oregon veterans: wait times for new patients at the Roseburg VA, and at VA facilities across the country, are unacceptably long. This needs to be fixed immediately.

Anyone found responsible for manipulating data or denying care should be immediately fired and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Veterans should be able to rely on their government to follow through on its promise to them.

That’s why I joined a bipartisan group in Congress to fight for significant reforms to the VA. In June we passed legislation that will allow the next Secretary of the VA to easily fire or demote any senior executive who is not delivering the best possible

health care to veterans. Another bill we passed will block all VA performance bonuses for two years and give veterans the choice of receiving fully covered medical care outside the VA if they cannot get an appointment within 14 days. The House and Senate are currently working out minor differences on these bills.

I expect them to be signed in to law shortly.

I also support HR 3181, which would make sure that the VA is exempt from across-the-board spending cuts known as sequestration. We should never allow the petty politics of Washington, D.C., disrupt care and service for our veterans like we saw during the irresponsible government shutdown last fall.

I have spent my entire time in Congress battling the VA bureaucracy on behalf of local veterans.It was an uphill fight to keep the

Roseburg VA facility from suffering major cuts, and it took six long years to break ground on the new Eugene clinic. There is still a lot more that needs to be done, and while the recent reforms that I supported in Congress will help, we also need to make sure that the VA has the resources it needs to provide top quality service.

Roseburg has long struggled to fill key medical positions. I will continue to fight for better recruiting incentives to attract and retain top-notch doctors, specialists, nurses and other staff.

Our country must do a better job keeping the promises we made to our veterans. They should never have to accept anything less than the best medical care in return for their sacrifices on our behalf.

If you or anyone needs help with VA, please do not hesitate to contact my office by emailing, writing or calling 800-9449603. My staff and I are here to help our nation’s heroes.

Rep. Peter DeFazio represents Oregon’s Fourth District.

State Free eye exam for eligible seniors DEAR ABBY: I am an ophthalmologist, and all too often I see patients who have already lost some of their vision because they waited too long to schedule an appointment for an eye exam. Many times the reason was limited insurance or they couldn't afford the copay.

After helping nearly 1.8 million people, EyeCare America, a public service program of the Foundation of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, continues to match eligible seniors in need with volunteer ophthalmologists who provide a medical eye exam — and up to one DEAR year of care — at no out-ofpocket cost to the patient.

This July, as we celebrate our country's JEANNE independPHILLIPS ence, invite your readers to also celebrate their personal independence by getting regular eye exams, especially as they age. Many eye diseases develop later in life. In fact, one in six people age 65 and older has a vision impairment that cannot be corrected with glasses or contact lenses.

Please help to save your readers from the falls, injuries, depression and social isolation that are associated with vision loss and join me in spreading the word about EyeCare America. Thank you for your help. — CHARLES P. WILKINSON, M.D., CHAIR, EYECARE AMERICA DEAR DR. WILKINSON: You're welcome. But I am the one who should thank you and the other members of the American Academy of Ophthalmology for their generosity in offering this program to seniors nationwide.

Readers, this is important and I know the need is great.

To find out if you or your loved ones qualify for this program, visit www.eyecareamerica.org. (The online application does not request financial information.)

DEAR ABBY: My in-laws are pressuring me to let them take our small children for overnights and trips around the city. I'm uncomfortable extremely about it because I don't trust their supervision. They obviously love the kids, and I'm happy they're in our children's lives — as long as they come to our house to visit.

There have been several instances in which they made some questionable decisions with respect to supervising my little ones in public. I have so far successfully dodged their requests, but it will be impossible to do it forever. If I tell them how I — and their son — feel, they will be hurt, especially because my parents routinely watch the kids outside our home.

What's the best way to handle this with the least hurt feelings? — ST. LOUIS MOMMY DEAR MOMMY: This is something you and your husband will have to discuss with his parents TOGETHER. If you do it alone, you will forever be blamed for "favoring" your family over his. When the discussion happens, you should cite your reasons for feeling the way you do. I can't promise there won't be hurt feelings, because there probably already are, but your children's safety must come first.

Firefighter makes film on deadly Colorado fire

Oregon mental hospital to honor ‘forgotten souls’

BY JONATHAN J. COOPER The Associated Press

SALEM — They were dubbed the “forgotten souls” — the cremated remains of thousands of people who came through the doors of Oregon’s state mental hospital, died there and whose ashes were abandoned inside 3,500 copper urns.

Discovered a decade ago at the decrepit Oregon State Hospital, where “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” was filmed, the remains became a symbol of the state’s — and the nation’s — dark history of treating the mentally ill.

■ Mr. S. Erickson was committed on Feb. 2, 1929, at age 78. A doctor who examined him wrote that he “wanders around naked at night” and suffers from senility. A laborer, 5-foot-5, 125 pounds with gray hair and blue eyes, he arrived in New York from Norway on the steamship Norstatter on Aug. 22, 1883, according to the doctor’s report.

■ Wencel Devorak, a saddler born in Bohemia, was 33 when he was committed on Jan. 31, 1890, struggling with delusions that others on the road to Portland were following him and teasing him about his wife. The handful of notes in his file show his delusions continued throughout his 40year stay at the hospital.

■ Susanna Weber arrived at Dammasch State Hospital, a now-closed mental institution, on July 26, 1962, at age 82. A widower, she was committed by her sister and a friend, who had cared for her for three years, but couldn’t keep going. She’d been sent to a nursing home, but administrators kicked her out because she wouldn’t stop wandering and rifling through other patients’ possessions, according to a social worker’s report written shortly after Weber arrived.

The remains of Erickson, Devorak, Weber and thousands of others have been transferred from the copper canisters to ceramic urns that will better protect them. The old canisters will be preserved to give visitors to the memorial a sense for how they once were housed.

“I think it will be very difficult to forget them now,” said Jodie Jones, the state administrator leading the hospital replacement project.

Cougar found in Portland tree euthanized PORTLAND (AP) — Oregon wildlife officials have euthanized a cougar that was captured in the backyard of a Portland home.

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife officials made the decision to euthanize the animal late Friday. The decision was made for public-safety reasons because the animal had become used to the city and had lost its fear of people, officials said.

Residents called police just before 3 p.m. Friday to report the cougar sitting in a tree in a densely populated Portland neighborhood.

After the cat spent three hours in the

tree under police monitoring, wildlife officials tranquilized the animal with a dart and safely removed it from the tree.

The cougar was placed in a cage and euthanized a while later.

Residents have reported multiple cougar sightings in Portland in recent days, and officials said it might have been the same cougar.

One resident reported her cat had been killed by an animal — the only thing that remained of the pet was the cat’s tail and a paw.

Residents also reported cougar sightings in Hillsboro, 20 miles from Portland.

In March, Oregon wildlife officials

euthanized two cougars in Eugene — the animals were blamed for killing two goats and several chickens.

The Department of Fish and Wildlife has said older cougars are not good candidates for being relocated to zoos or other facilities, because relocation could create territorial conflicts among the big cats and spread disease. The state does relocate cougar kittens.

Under Oregon statute, landowners experiencing damage by a cougar may kill the offending animal without a permit from state wildlife officials.

Cougars are native to the American West.

City in Umatilla County pays bounty on invasive weed ECHO (AP) — A small city in Umatilla County is taking a new approach to weed control: It’s offering a bounty to anyone who brings in bags of the weed known as puncture vine.

The city of Echo says it will pay a dollar for a plastic grocery sack full of the weed.

Residents can also turn in a five-gallon bucket full of the weed to city hall for $5.

Puncture vine, also known as devil’s weed or goathead, has yellow flowers that turn into spiky burrs. The weed infests pastures, fields, ditches and roadsides where it forms dense mats and is painful to step on.

The East Oregonian reports bounties in Echo will be paid out until the program’s $350 budget is exhausted.

PORTLAND (AP) — Eric Hipke survived the South Canyon fire blowup, but just barely, running ahead of a towering wave of flames.

If he had stopped for just five seconds to open his fire shelter that July 6, 1994, afternoon, he wouldn’t have lived, investigators said.

By exhaling as he jumped away from the flames, he also avoided breathing in superheated air that would have killed him.

As it was, the 32-year-old veteran firefighter with the North Cascades Smokejumpers suffered burns on his arms, back, legs, hands and face. The skin on his arms was hanging off in sheets.

Hipke spent a month in the burn unit at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle and another month as an outpatient, undergoing painful skin grafts and physical therapy.

“I was burned anywhere the Nomex fire-resistant clothing was tight to my body,” said Hipke, now 52 and a video production specialist at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise.

The Colorado fire that nearly killed him claimed the lives of 14 firefighters, including nine of a 20-member crew of Prineville Hotshots from Oregon.

But less than two months later, Hipke was back on light duty at the White River ranger district in Enumclaw, Wash.

He began to work out, riding his bike every day still wearing pressure bandages while his burns healed.

By September, his doctor cleared him to jump again. A short time later, he and another smokejumper parachuted into wilderness near Crater Lake to put out a small lightning fire.

Hipke jumped fires for 21 years before he began using his video production degree to make fire training videos for the U.S. Forest Service.

For the past year, Hipke has spent nearly every working hour making a documentary about that day on Storm King Mountain.

He interviewed survivors and recreated his dramatic survival in the 82-minute “1994 South Canyon Fire on Storm King Mountain.”

The video is “the culmination of all my schooling and work experience. I meant it to fill the void between John Maclean’s book (”Fire on the Mountain: The True Story of the South Canyon Fire”) and the investigation reports, and to be accessible to firefighters and non-firefighters alike,” he said.

Like other survivors, Hipke said he hopes the lessons learned and new training methods instituted after South Canyon — giving all ground crew members radios, figuring human factors into the firefighting equation and better leadership — will prevent another tragedy.

“My hope is that after watching the video that if a firefighter ever finds himself in a similar situation that he’ll be able to draw from that knowledge and change things to a better outcome,” he said.

DILBERT

Cheapsk ate, Who, me?

Some people think the word “cheapskate” is an insult. Not me. I enjoy being called a cheapskate. It reminds me that I’m not what I used to be: a creditcard junkie. There was a time I used plastic to fill the gap between my pathetic income and the life I so richly deserved.

When my six-figure bridge collapsed (yes, you can take that to mean more than $100,000 in nonmortg a g e EVERYDAY debt), I CHEAPSKATE had two choices: change my ways or lose everything.

Knowing I wouldn’t do well with Mary the latHunt ter, I opted for change. I could fill several books with all that happened and what I’ve learned (wait! I have), but I’ll cut to the chase. We didn’t go bankrupt; we paid back every penny and now I live to tell. Yeah, you can call me a cheapskate any day and I’ll take it as a compliment.

So, you may be thinking, how did she do that?! I stopped spending every penny I had and all we hoped to have. Bottom line: I learned how to live on less than our income. A lot less.

The steps are simple: Rein in your brain. You have to stop believing you are entitled to have it all now and then pay, and pay, and pay for it later. The truth is you can’t have it all, but you can have enough.

Embrace frugality. I was repulsed by the word until I understood it. Frugality is just doing whatever it takes to spend less than you earn.

What a novel concept.

Frugal doesn’t mean tacky, frumpy or stingy. The truth is we cheapskates (see? I called myself a cheapskate!) actually fix stuff instead of running out to buy new stuff. Another novel concept. We figure out how to use this for that when that costs more than this. We drive paid-for cars, we challenge everything and ask if there’s a better way.

Here’s an example: I used to get my hair cut every four weeks. Then I figured how to stretch that to six. That’s four and a half fewer haircuts a year, which translates to, well, you do the math.

Apply this kind of thinking to all areas of spending and just watch the dramatic results. Being a cheapskate is less embarrassing than you’d think, (unless you count that half haircut — ha-ha)!

3. Ne ver p a y re ta i l. As cliche as that may sound, it’s a principle to hang onto.

With so many discount stores and America’s gigantic garage sale (also known as eBay.com and Half.com) you may never pay retail again. And how about that food? Let me tell you, I was a major coupon-snob until I learned how to make those suckers work for me. Now I save around 60 percent off my grocery bill every week. I swallowed my pride and learned how to do it right.

That’s going to be one entire column in the near future, and you can count on it.

I could go on and on, but I’ll close with this: If you apply even a few of the things in this daily column you will end up with extra cash.

You’ll begin to notice changes both in your bank account and your attitude!

New York City mourns ‘hero’ firefighter

D I G E S T UK unveils spy file cache from Mitrokhin CAMBRIDGE, England (AP) — The papers spent years hidden in a milk churn beneath a Russian dacha and read like an encyclopedia of Cold War espionage.

Original documents from one of the biggest intelligence leaks in history — a who’s who of Soviet spying — were released Monday after being held in secret for two decades.

The files smuggled out of Russia in 1992 by senior KGB official Vasili Mitrokhin describe sabotage plots, booby-trapped weapons caches and armies of agents under cover in the West — the real-life inspiration for the fictional Soviet moles in “The Americans” TV series.

Brand-new doctors get boot camp CHICAGO (AP) — Firstday jitters come with any new job but when the work involves pushing needles into strangers’ bellies, stitching up gaping wounds or even delivering babies, that debut can be especially nervewracking — for everyone involved.

Brand-new doctors often launch right into patient care within weeks of graduating from medical school. To make sure their skills are up to snuff, many medical schools and hospitals run crash courses in the basics for these new interns.

It’s called boot camp at Memorial Northwestern Hospital and its adjoining Feinberg medical school, a program involving two to three days of intense practice before letting the newbies loose on patients. Young doctors are tested on a variety of skills, from the proper technique for handling newborns during childbirth — make sure the head comes out slowly — to delivering bad news — use empathy, eye contact and listen to the patient.

Swimmer recalls great white shark bite MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Steven Robles was an hour into his regular weekend swim off some of Southern California’s most popular beaches when he came face-to-face with a great white shark.

The 7-foot-long juvenile had been trying to free itself from a fisherman’s hook for about half an hour.

“It came up to the surface, it looked at me and attacked me right on the side of my chest,” Robles told KABCTV. “That all happened within two seconds, I saw the eyes of the shark as I was seeing it swim toward me. It lunged at my chest, and it locked into my chest.”

As a reflex, he tried to pry open the shark’s mouth.

Suspects confess to killing Palestinian teen JERUSALEM (AP) — Three Israeli suspects in the vigilante-style killing of a Palestinian teenager who was abducted and burned to death last week confessed to the crime on Monday and were re-enacting the incident for authorities, an official said, as the country’s leaders raced to contain a public uproar over the slaying.

The confessions came as tensions continued to rise along Israel’s volatile front with the Gaza Strip. Israeli launched in airstrikes, response to persistent rocket fire, killed at least eight Palestinian militants. The Hamas militant group vowed revenge, saying “the enemy will pay a tremendous price.”

63 females escape extremists in Nigeria MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (AP) — More than 60 Nigerian girls and women abducted by Islamic extremists two weeks ago have managed to escape, officials said Monday, though more than 200 girls who were kidnapped in April remain missing.

Nigerian security forces and federal government officials had denied reports of the mass abduction from three villages in the northeast state of Borno on June 22.

NEW YORK (AP) — Purple and black bunting hung from the firehouse.

Firefighters embraced and wiped away tears.

Neighbors, grateful for the man they recently called a hero and stunned by his sudden death, stopped by to say farewell.

Sorrow permeated the New York City neighborhood Sunday where Lt. Gordon Ambelas worked, echoing from Ladder 119 and Engine Company 211 — where he heard his final call Saturday night — to the public-housing high-rise where he was overcome with smoke and flame while searching for possible victims in a cluttered apartment.

Strong quake hits Mexico, Guatemala; 3 dead TUXTLA GUTIERREZ, Mexico (AP) — A magnitude6.9 earthquake on the Pacific Coast jolted a wide area of southern Mexico and Central America on Monday, killing at least three people and damaging dozens of homes.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake hit at 6:23 a.m. on the Pacific Coast 1 mile north-northeast of Puerto Madero, near the Guatemala border. It inicalculated the tially magnitude at 7.1 but later lowered the figure to 6.9.

Firefighters spokesman Raul Hernandez said at least two people died in their homes from collapsed walls in the Guatemalan town of Pati, in the border province of San Marcos.

The civil defense office in the Mexican state of Chiapas reported on its Twitter account that one man had been killed in Huixtla by a collapsed wall.

Hernandez reported damage in at least 30 homes in Guatemala, as well as landslides and toppled utility

poles.

There were reports of power outages and rock slides on some roadways in Guatemala.

Photos posted on social media sites and published by the newspaper Guatemalan Prensa Libre showed buildings with huge cracks across their facades in San Marcos,and one which apparently suffered a partial collapse.

In Chiapas, where the quake was centered, panicked people poured into the streets and the Red Cross said it was treating some frightened adults and children.

“I thought the house was going to collapse,” said Claudia Gonzales, 32, who ran to the street in the town of Comitan with her 1-yearold daughter.

The quake was felt across a broad swath of southern Mexico and as far away as Mexico City, but officials had no immediate reports of damage.

The quake was centered 37 miles below the surface.

3 bridges blown up in Ukraine to block rebel city NOVOBAKHMUTIVKA, Ukraine (AP) — Three bridges on key roads leading into the Ukrainian city of Donetsk were blown up Monday — an apparent attempt to slow down any possible assault by government forces on the rebel-held stronghold.

Separatist fighters driven out of Slovyansk and other eastern towns by the Ukrainian army over the weekend had regrouped in Donetsk, a city of 1 million where pro-Russia rebels have declared independence as the Donetsk People’s Republic. Pavel Gubarev, the region’s self-described governor, had promised “real partisan war around the whole perimeter of Donetsk” before thousands of supporters at a rally Sunday.

It was not exactly clear who blew up the highway and train bridges Monday, but their destruction would most benefit the rebels.

Battles between Ukrainian forces and pro-Russia separatists have left over 400 people dead and thousands

homeless since they began in early April.

In the village of Novobakhmutivka, where a rail line crosses over a highway out of Donetsk, an 11-wagon cargo train was perched perilously Monday on the collapsed bridge. The road leads toward Slovyansk, a former insurgent stronghold that was recaptured Saturday by Ukrainian troops. Downing the bridge also damaged the rail line.

Anatoly Krasov, who was driving along the road Monday, said he saw an explosion before the bridge collapsed with a large cargo train on it. He said a group of men dressed in the camouflage uniforms often worn by the rebels then got into their cars and drove back toward Donetsk.

Two other bridges on leading from roads Slovyansk to Donetsk were also destroyed Monday in the villages of Zakitne and Seleznevka, the Road Transportation Agency of Donetsk Region said.

Sen. Ron Wyden takes a question from a Jordan Cove Energy Project supporter. Also pictured on stage are Coos County Commissioner Melissa Cribbins, center, and Coos Bay Mayor Crystal Shoji, right.

He warned Wyden and the audience about “Whoops,” a nickname given to the Washington Public Power Supply System in the 1970s and 1980s. WPPSS (now Energy Northwest) overcommitted to nuclear power, causing a sudden stop on plant construction that left thousands out of work.

“The project shut down at 75 percent completion,” he said. “When the revenue and

PHONES Continued from Page A1 speculate on whether new security procedures called for overseas will be required at domestic airports in the future.

“We continue to evaluate things,” he said. “The screening we have right domestically from one domestic airport to another is pretty robust,as the American traveling public knows. In this instance we felt that it was important to crank it up some at the last point of departure airports and we’ll continually evaluate the situation.”

jobs left, it destroyed that area.”

He’s worried Jordan Cove will be the next “Whoops.”

“Employees would quit and go work out there,” he said. “We’d have to fold our shops up. If (Jordan Cove) lost funding, it would leave a bunch of empty places for those people to go.”

IBEW Local Union 932 Adam representative Foxworthy said that won’t happen.

“The Local 932 is committed to responding to all calls for manpower,” he said.

Foxworthy said he recently filled a 160-man, four-day job “without problems,” even though the Local 932

has 140 members.

Wyden conceded that other big projects have been “ballyhooed” as the South Coast’s savior from economic depression. The cheering has turned into shrugs nearly every time, which has “left people on the South Coast skeptical,” he said.

“Oregonians, especially folks on the South Coast, deserve to have this done right,” Wyden said of Jordan Cove.

ducting the additional screening. Industry data show that more than 250 foreign airports offer nonstop service to the U.S. Aviation remains an attractive target to global terrorists, who are consistently looking for ways to circumvent airport security measures, the DHS official said. Some details on specific enhancements and locations are sensitive because U.S. officials do not want to give information “to those who would do us harm,” the official said.

American intelligence officials said earlier this week that they have picked up indications that bomb makers from Yemen-based al-Qaida

in the Arabian Peninsula have traveled to Syria to link up with the al-Qaida affiliate there.

Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula long has been fixated on bringing down airplanes with hidden explosives. It was behind failed and thwarted plots involving suicide bombers with explosives.

Over the past year, Americans and others from the West have traveled to Syria to join the fight against the Syrian government. The fear is that a fighter with a U.S. or other Western passport, who therefore may be subject to less stringent security screening, could carry such a bomb onto an American plane.

trol. The nonprofit groups just have to raise their hands and say that paying for any or all of the 20 devices and methods approved by government regulators would violate their religious beliefs.

To do so, they must fill out a government document known as Form 700 that enables their insurers or third-party administrators to take on the responsibility of paying for the birth control. The employer does not have to arrange the coverage or pay for it. Insurers get reimbursed by the government through credits against fees owed under other parts of the health law.

Houses of worship and other religious institutions whose primary purpose is to spread the faith are exempt from the requirement to offer birth control.

The objections by religious nonprofits are rooted in teachings against facilitat-

Repeatedly pressed to say whether thousands of Central American children will be deported promptly, Johnson said, “We need to find more efficient, effective ways to turn this tide around generally, and we’ve already begun to do that.”

ing sin.

Roman Catholic bishops and other religious plaintiffs argue that filling out the government form that registers opposition to contraceptives, then sending the document to the insurer or third-party administrator, is akin to signing a permission slip to engage in evil.

In the Hobby Lobby case, the justices rejected the government argument that there was no violation of conscience because the link between birth control coverage and the outcome the employer considers morally wrong was slight.

Just hours after the Hobby Lobby decision, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta granted a temporary reprieve to the AlabamaEternal Word based Television Network. Judge William H. Pryor Jr. said in a separate opinion in that case that the administration “turns a blind eye to the undisputed evidence that delivering Form 700 would violate the Network’s religious beliefs.”

But the Supreme Court could draw a distinction between subsidizing birth

control and signing a docua deputize ment to third-party to do so, said Robin Fretwell Wilson, a family law specialist at the University of Illinois College of Law. “Think about how thinned down that objection is,” Fretwell Wilson said.

“The court might say that is a bridge too far.”

Nelson Karen Judge Moore of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati said the document is a reasonable way for objecting organizations to inform the insurer, but that the obligation to cover contraception is in the health law, not the form.

“Self-certification allows the eligible organization to tell the insurance issuer and third-party administrator, ‘We’re excused from the new federal obligation relating to contraception,’ and in turn, the government tells those insurance companies, ‘But you’re not,”’ the judge wrote.

People on both sides of this argument are looking to the Hobby Lobby case for clues about how the justices might come out in this next round.

border this year. Most are from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, where spikes in violence and poverty are prompting parents to send their children on difficult and dangerous journeys north.

Their numbers have overwhelmed federal agencies.

When 140 would-be immigrants — mostly mothers with children — were flown to Southern California to ease an overcrowded Texas facility, angry residents of Murrieta, California, greeted the bus as it pulled into town, complaining that they were being saddled with more than their share.

“This is a failure of diplomacy. It is a failure of leadership from the administration,” said Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who sought the 2012 GOP presidential nomination.

Rep. Henry Cuellar, DTexas, said the administration “is one step behind” a major dilemma that was foreseeable. The number of children coming from Central America without adults has been rising

dramatically for several years.

A George W. Bush-era law to address human trafficking prevents the government from returning these children to their home countries without taking them into custody and eventually through a deportation hearing. Minors from Mexico and Canada, by contrast, can be sent back across the border more easily. The administration says it wants more flexibility under the law.

Johnson said the administration has dramatically sped up the processing of adults who enter the country illegally, and it is opening more detention facilities. He acknowledged that the unaccompanied children from Central America, some 9,700 taken into custody in May alone, pose the most vexing problem.

Unaccompanied Central American children generally are being released to relatives already in the United States.

Mothers with their children often are released with a notice to appear later in immigration court.

North Coos earns split in Medford THE WORLD

The Associated Press

Novak Djokovic holds the trophy after beating Roger Federer in a five-set battle during the men’s singles final at Wimbledon on Sunday.

Djokovic holds on for Wimbledon title LONDON (AP) — Novak Djokovic’s large lead in the rollicking Wimbledon final was slipping away, due in no small part to Roger Federer’s regal presence and resurgent play.

No man has won tennis’ oldest major tournament more often than Federer, and he was not about to let it go easily. Djokovic went from being a point from victory in the fourth set to suddenly caught in the crucible of a fifth, and knew all too well that he had come up short in recent Grand Slam title matches.

Steeling himself when he so desperately needed to, Serbia’s Djokovic held on for a 6-7 (7), 6-4, 7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-4 victory after nearly four hours of momentum shifts Sunday to win Wimbledon for the second time — and deny Switzerland’s Federer what would have been a record eighth championship at the All England Club.

“I could have easily lost my concentration in the fifth and just handed him the win. But I didn’t, and that’s why this win has a special importance to me, mentally,” Djokovic said. “I managed to not just win against my opponent, but win against myself, as well, and find that inner strength.”

Cradling his trophy during the post-match ceremony, Djokovic addressed Federer directly, saying: “I respect your career and everything you have done. And thank you for letting me win today.”

Even Federer had to smile at that line.

Truth is, Djokovic deserved plenty of credit for figuring out a way to raise his Grand Slam total to seven titles and allows him to overtake

Rafael Nadal at No. 1 in the rankings.

“Novak deserved it at the end, clearly,” said Federer, who hadn’t been to a Grand Slam final since winning his 17th major at Wimbledon in 2012, “but it was extremely close.”

Federer, who turns 33 next month, won 88 of 89 service games through the semifinals and produced 29 aces in the final, but Djokovic broke him four times.

Federer went to the net aggressively, only to see Djokovic zoom more than a dozen passing shots past him. And with most of the Centre Court crowd of about 15,000 raucously cheering for Federer, the 27-year-old Djokovic kept believing in himself.

That part might have been the most difficult, given that Djokovic lost his past three major finals, and five of his past six, including against Andy Murray at Wimbledon last year, and against Nadal at the French Open last month.

“Started doubting, of course, a little bit,” Djokovic said. “I needed this win a lot.”

Boris Becker, the three-time Wimbledon champion who began coaching Djokovic this season, called the new champion “the biggest competitor” and praised “his sense of not giving up, giving it always another try.”

“It could’ve gone either way in the fifth set,” said Becker, whose former rival as a player, Stefan Edberg, coaches Federer. “Novak finds another way. He digs deep and finds another way.”

Djokovic built a 5-2 lead in the fourth set and served for the championship at 5-3. But Federer broke there for the first time all after-

noon, smacking a forehand winner as Djokovic slipped and fell on a patch of brown dirt.

Djokovic took a nastier tumble in the second set, hurting his left leg and prompting the first of two medical timeouts; he got his right calf massaged by a trainer in the fifth.

With Federer serving at 5-4 in the fourth, he double-faulted to 30-all, then netted a backhand for 30-40 — handing Djokovic a match point.

Federer hit a 118 mph (190 kph) serve that was called out, but he challenged the ruling, and the replay showed the ball touched a line for an ace. That was part of Federer’s five-game run to force a fifth set. It would be another 42 minutes until Djokovic again stood so close to triumph.

“Can’t believe I made it to five,” Federer said. “Wasn’t looking good there for a while.”

In truth, after so much drama, the ending was anticlimactic. Trailing 5-4 but serving, Federer missed four groundstrokes, pushing a backhand into the net on Djokovic’s second match point.

Victory his, Djokovic knelt on the most hallowed tennis court in the world, plucked a blade of grass and shoved it in his mouth, just as he did after his 2011 Wimbledon title. He dedicated this victory to his pregnant fiancee “and our future baby,” and to Jelena Gencic, his first tennis coach, who died last year.

“This is the best tournament in the world, the most valuable one,” Djokovic said. “The first tennis match that I ever (saw) in my life, when I was 5 years old, was Wimbledon, and that image stuck (in) my mind.”

North Coos split a doubleheader in scorching temperatures at Medford on Saturday before returning to the Rogue Valley for two more games today.

South Medford took the first game with the Waterfront by a 4-2 margin before North Coos bounced back to take the nightcap 4-3.

Griffin Kaufmann scored three of the runs in the win for North Coos, finishing 2-for-4 at the plate and also reaching base twice by errors.

Trey Cornish had three hits, including two RBI singles, for North Coos, while Jon Bennison also drove in a run.

Jared Hampel scored the other run in the first inning.

South Medford scored all its runs in the fifth inning, but North Coos won it in the seventh.

Kaufmann led off with a single and moved to second on a sacrifice by Marshall Rice. Kaufmann later came home on a single by Cornish.

South Medford came from behind to win the opener with three runs in the fifth inning.

Cornish hit an infield single and later scored for North Coos in the second inning.

Hampel scored the other run in the fifth inning, hitting a one-out single, stealing second base and later coming home on a single by Hunter Jackson. Kaufmann had a single and double.

Bennison pitched a complete game for North Coos and also had a single and double in the losing effort. He gave up just two hits, but South Medford also had two runners score after reaching base by error.

North Coos faces North Medford today before a stretch of key home games starts Wednesday against Sheldon at Clyde Allen Field.

After facing Sheldon, North Coos hosts Roseburg Pepsi on Friday and the Grants Pass Miners next Tuesday.

North Coos and Sheldon are tied for first place at 4-2, with Roseburg Pepsi and Grants Pass both 2-2. Two teams will advance to the state tournament.

Almirola wins rain-hampered race at Daytona DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — It had been more than 15 years since the iconic No. 43 drove to Victory Lane.

So waiting through two days of thunderstorms and three red flags was relatively easy for Aric Almirola and his Richard Petty Motorsports team.

Almirola won the rain-delayed and rain-shortened NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday, putting Petty’s famed blue car back on top for the first time since 1999.

Almirola’s first Cup win came on the same weekend Petty celebrated the 30th anniversary of his 200th career win. The 30-yearold Almirola was just a baby when Petty picked up that milestone victory.

“The 43 car is without a doubt the most famous car in our sport’s history,” Almirola said. “And to have that opportunity to drive that race car has been really special from the day that I stepped foot in it. All I wanted to do from the very first time I drove it was get it to Victory Lane. It took two and a half years I guess, but I finally did it.”

Petty wasn’t around for the festivities, having already left Daytona during one of the many delays. He didn’t miss much considering steady rain put a slight damper on the post-race party.

NASCAR, though, patched through the seven-time NASCAR champion nicknamed “The King” on a conference call afterward and talked about how he never lost faith despite years of struggles as a team owner.

“If you look back at the history of Petty Enterprises and all the turmoil we’ve been through, I never gave up on the thing,” Petty said. “It was one of those deals I said, ‘OK, if I keep working at it long enough, we’re going to be able to overcome all of this.’ Just because we won a race doesn’t mean we’ve overcome it, don’t get

me wrong. But it puts in a higher speed track. You know you can do it.

“Everybody’s got to have a start, and I think this will be starting it pretty good.”

The Coke Zero 400 was originally scheduled to go off Saturday night, but steady rain forced it to be postponed a day. When it did finally get started Sunday, it was interrupted several more times.

There were three red flags, two of them because of huge accidents that took out most of the 43-car field and several top contenders.

Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart, Kevin Harvick, Jamie McMurray, Carl Edwards, Kasey Kahne, Greg Biffle and Kyle Busch were among those knocked out of contention.

Biffle and Kahne started the second massive wreck, a 25-car fiasco that ended with Busch getting flipped upside-down in his No. 18 Toyota.

“It just felt like a slow carnival ride,” Busch said.

The same could be said for the entire weekend at Daytona. Sprint Cup qualifying was a debacle, and then rain affected the entire, fourday event at NASCAR’s most famous track.

Sunday’s race topped it all, with just seven cars avoiding both crashes.

Not surprisingly, Almirola was among them.

He became the first Cup driver other than Petty to win in the legendary No. 43 at Daytona. The previous time the 43 won was with John Andretti behind the wheel at Martinsville in 1999. So Petty’s renowned car went 543 races without a victory.

Almirola got out of his car and watched the radar with crewmembers during the final red flag, a 56-minute wait that had most drivers believing the race would resume. But when heavy rain soaked parts of the track, officials called it for good with 48 laps remaining.

Nine teams form alliance

The Associated Press

Aric Almirola celebrates after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday.

“I was doing a lot of hardcore praying, hoping the good Lord would open the skies up and let it rain,” Almirola said. “If we would have went back racing, I still think we had enough car to go there.

“I don’t think this was handed to us by any means. Let me be very clear about that. ... Those last two restarts, Kurt Busch and Austin Dillon and Brian Vickers, they didn’t just let me go. They saw the rain coming, too, and we were all racing for it.”

Vickers finished second, followed by Kurt Busch, Casey Mears and rookie Austin Dillon. Danica Patrick was eighth despite a late pit-road mistake, and reigning

Daytona 500 champion Dale Earnhardt Jr. was 14th.

Almirola became the 11th driver to win this season as they jockey for one of the 16 spots in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

In his third full season driving for Petty, Almirola went into Daytona with just four career topfive finishes and had never finished higher than 18th in the standings.

But he and teammate Marcos Ambrose have slowly been inching RPM back toward the front, and Almirola had his previous careerbest finish of third earlier this season at Bristol.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The top nine teams in NASCAR have for the first time formed a single entity to collaborate on initiatives and issues facing their sport.

The Race Team Alliance was announced Monday, and Michael Waltrip Racing co-owner Rob Kauffman was elected chairman.

The goals of the RTA include lowering costs for NASCAR teams and creating one voice on issues facing the teams. Kauffman insisted the RTA is not a union.

“Calling it a union would be incorrect. A union would be for employees,” Kauffman said in a phone interview with The Associated Press. “The right way to characterize it would be a ‘business alliance.’ Unions are about employees directly trying to negotiate something. The RTA is pooling together to look at things we can be doing better.

“No one is looking to start to fight or be controversial.”

The RTA currently includes Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates, Hendrick Motorsports, Joe Gibbs Racing, Michael Waltrip Racing, Richard Childress Racing, Richard Petty Motor Sports, Roush Fenway Racing, Stewart-Haas Racing and Team Penske.

Kauffman said the top goal of the RTA, which is operating with bylaws and an executive committee, is to bring in the remaining Sprint Cup teams that are not currently members. The next most important items on the agenda, according to Kauffman, is working on cost-saving initiatives related to travel and the purchasing of parts, and communicating with one voice to NASCAR the team ideas on testing.

Sports Kvitova cruises to women’s crown The 2011 champ wins Wimbledon final in 55 minutes ■

The Associated Press

Vincenzo Nibali celebrates as he crosses the finish line ahead of the sprinting pack to win the second stage of the Tour de France on Sunday.

Italian rider grabs lead at Tour SHEFFIELD, England (AP) — Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali outfoxed other Tour de France title contenders to win a hilly second stage through Yorkshire countryside on Sunday, wresting the overall race leader’s yellow jersey.

The Astana team leader pointed a finger skyward as he burst out of a breakaway bunch at the end of the 201kilometer (125-mile) ride over nine rolling ascents and through the heath of northern England. Belgium’s Greg van Avermaet was second and Michal Kwiatkowski of Poland was third, each two seconds behind.

Over the last six kilometers, several of the pre-race favorites to win the threeweek race played a cat-andmouse game, quickly exchanging leadership of the breakaway bunch. But Nibali, a 29-year-old rider who has won both the Italian Giro and Spanish Vuelta, timed his attack perfectly — bursting ahead with less than 2 kilometers to go and holding off surging chasers.

“It was a fabulous day for me, I led a good action,” said Nibali, who collected his first Tour stage win and first yellow jersey. “It was difficult.

There was a lot of headwind ... I had the luck to attack at the right moment.”

Marcel Kittel of Germany, a powerful sprinter who often struggles on climbs, trailed nearly 20 minutes back and lost the yellow jersey that he had captured by winning Stage 1.

Nibali was up front with a bunch including defending Tour champion Chris Froome of Britain and Spanish twotime winner Alberto Contador — each of whom burst to the front of the

Kittel sprints to second stage win LONDON (AP) — Germany’s Marcel Kittel showed he may be the sprinter to beat at the Tour de France, speeding to his second stage win this year in Stage 3 today as cycling’s big event entered London before leaving England for France.

Rain in the City of London doused riders at the end of the 96-mile ride from the university town of Cambridge to a dramatic finish past landmarks like Big Ben and Westminster.

Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali retained the overall leader’s yellow jersey with a 2-second lead on the most likely contenders to win the three-week race in Paris on July 27.

Kittel, led out perfectly escaping bunch near the end.

Others in the group included 25-year-old American riders Andrew Talansky and Tejay van Garderen.

“It was a very hard day but the home crowd support was great,” said Froome, the Team Sky leader. “I’m tired, but I hope everyone’s tired after a day like today.”

Tinkoff-Saxo Bank leader Contador said: “Today was a day when you really needed to be careful ... There are thousands and thousands of people. It’s great but it’s also dangerous.”

Overall, Nibali leads 20 other riders by two seconds: Slovakia’s Peter Sagan is sec-

by Giant-Shimano teammates, made it look easy as he sped down the final wide approach on The Mall with Buckingham Palace behind him. Peter Sagan of Slovakia was second and Australia’s Mark Renshaw was third.

“It was awesome,” said Kittel, who won four Tour stages last year. “I’m really really happy I could win in front of Buckingham Palace.”

After a grueling up-anddown day through the hills and dales of Yorkshire on Sunday, amid huge roadside crowds, the pack seemed content to cruise a bit for Stage 3 — letting two breakaway riders go free. They were caught with about 4 miles left. ond, van Avermaet is third, while Froome is fifth and Contador trails in eighth.

Massive crowds lined the route from York to Sheffield.

One of the British stars in the race, Mark Cavendish, dropped out before the stage after pain from a separated right shoulder sustained in a crash Saturday.

While Yorkshire doesn’t have ascents on a par with the Alps or Pyrenees in France, riders faced nine low- to mid-grade climbs.

The hardest was the 4.7kilometer Holme Moss pass, and the steepest was also the shortest: The 800-meter Jenkin Road pass, with an

average gradient of 10.8 percent — just 5 kilometers from the finish line.

England is hosting the first three stages of the three-week race before it enters France.

New roads for cycling’s greatest race also mean new audiences, some of whom are so enthusiastic and eager for a “selfie” with the pack that they don’t realize the hazards of getting too close to the riders as they go by. There are simply too many people for barriers that race organizers erect in crowded spots, making the course more treacherous for the riders.

Kittel and Giant-Shimano teammate Koen De Kort of the Netherlands were among those who crashed during the day. Team sporting director Christian Guiberteau said the German sprint star was unharmed, sustaining “just a little crash because there are so many people on the roadside.”

Simon Gerrans, who crashed with Cavendish in Saturday’s stage, also spilled — as did van Garderen and Joachim Rodriguez, the third-place finisher in the 2013 Tour. All recovered to finish the stage.

French rider Thomas Voeckler said overenthusiastic crowds had added to the challenges, including hearing the squeaks of rivals’ brakes.

“People really need to stay on the side of the road with their strollers and children,” Voeckler said.

On the up-and-down, picturesque course, the 197rider peloton scaled a narrow, cobblestone hill in Haworth, where the Bronte sisters — the famous 19th-century novelists — lived when their father was parson in the town.

Argentina, Netherlands reach semifinals RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Argentines didn’t need a late winner from Lionel Messi this time, settling in to protect a 1-0 margin against Belgium that earned them a first trip to the World Cup semifinals in 24 years.

The Netherlands could have used a late goal from Robin van Persie or Wesley Sneijder or Arjen Robben later Saturday but didn’t get one, only edging Costa Rica 4-3 on penalties to set up a semifinal against Argentina.

The 2010 finalists lit up the tournament with 12 goals in four matches but couldn’t find the net in regulation or extra time against rank underdog Costa Rica.

Captain van Persie wasted chances to break the 0-0 deadlock, and Sneijder smashed an 80th-minute free kick into the post and a stoppage-time shot into the crossbar, setting the scene for replacement goalkeeper Tim Krul to be the unlikely hero.

Krul went on in the last minute of extra time — coach Louis van Gaal considering him a better option in the shootout than No. 1 Jasper Cillessen — and made two crucial saves.

“We had a lot of chances but it didn’t go in,” Krul said on Dutch television. “Then I come in, stop two penalties and here we are.”

After scoring against Belgium, Argentina’s Gonzalo Higuain (9) celebrates with teammates Lionel Messi, left, and Angel di Maria, top, during their World Cup match Saturday.

The flood of goals from the group stage slowed to a trickle in the knockout rounds, with the four quarterfinals yielding just five goals. Brazil’s 2-1 win over Colombia on Friday night was relatively high-scoring compared with the 1-0 results by Germany against France and Argentina against Belgium.

The low-scoring quarterfinals were slightly overshadowed anyway in the host nation, where millions were still coming to terms with the fact that a back injury knocked star striker Neymar

out of the tournament.

Brazil fans at Brasilia’s Estadio Nacional for the Argentina-Belgium match wore face mask caricatures of their talisman and held up signs reading: “Have strength Neymar. Brazil will win.”

They were drowned out by tens of thousands of traveling Argentina fans who outnumbered them and raucously supported Messi.

The alleged leader of Argentina’s infamous football hooligans, Pablo Alvarez, was among them, but he’s

unlikely to be there next time after being detained inside the stadium and is set for deportation.

Messi remains in Brazil after Gonzalo Higuain ended a four-game scoreless streak with a goal in the 8th minute to help Argentina reach the final four for the first time since 1990, the year it lost the final to West Germany.

Higuain picked up a deflected pass from Angel Di Maria and beat goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois with a halfvolley toward the far post as he turned.

“Since the first game of this World Cup I said I was calm, that the goals would come. It came and at an important moment,” the Napoli striker said. “It’s been so many years since we made it to the semifinals. Now we did.”

Messi missed a chance to get his fifth goal of the tournament when he failed to beat Courtois in a one-onone situation in stoppage time. This time, it wasn’t needed.

Belgium coach Marc Wilmots was critical of Argentina’s approach after taking the lead and described his opponents as “just an ordinary team.”

“If we had equalized in the last few minutes, they are dead, they are finished,” he said.

LONDON (AP) — Petra Kvitova plays so much better at the All England Club than anywhere else, and now she owns two championships to prove it.

In one of the most dominant performances in a women’s final at Wimbledon, the sixth-seeded Kvitova of the Czech Republic overpowered and overwhelmed 13thseeded Eugenie Bouchard of Canada 6-3, 6-0 in only 55 minutes Saturday to add to her 2011 title at the grasscourt Grand Slam.

“I know,” Kvitova said, “this is the best tournament for me.”

Absolutely true. Her career record of 26-5 at Wimbledon translates to an .839 winning percentage, compared to her marks of .667 at the three other majors and .681 at all other events.

In 2014, Kvitova lost in the first round at the hard-court Australian Open, and in the third round at the clay-court French Open. But get her on the grass court, and those speedy serves and flat forehands really shine.

“For sure, she was on,” Bouchard said. “We know that when she’s on, she’s very tough to beat. Especially on this surface.”

On Saturday, the 24-yearold Kvitova certainly was “on.” Oh, was she ever. Pretty much perfect in every way.

The left-hander hit serves that reached 113 mph (182 kph) and earned easy points.

Walloped big, deep returns that left Bouchard little time to react. Smacked flat groundstrokes off both wings that zipped right where she intended, often skidding near lines, helping accumulate a 28-8 edge in winners. Won 11 of 14 points she played at the net.

Most surprisingly, even to Kvitova herself, was the way

she motored around the Centre Court grass with her right thigh heavily bandaged, displaying defensive skill that she’s not necessarily known for. It was telling that Bouchard lost in such a lopsided manner despite four unforced errors.

“I mean, (a) few shots was really incredible, and I really couldn’t believe that I made it, actually,” said Kvitova, who was within two points of defeat against Venus Williams in the third round.

“I said, ‘Oh, my God, this is good!’”

The match was played under a heavy cover of clouds, and it seemed as if Bouchard’s best chance to regroup would be a rain delay.

“I don’t know,” Bouchard’s mother, Julie Leclair, said, “if there was much she could’ve done.”

A shower arrived minutes after the brief-as-could-be final concluded. Before the trophy presentation, the retractable roof was closed, and both players left the court for a bit. Bouchard was told to wait in the room used to engrave champions’ names.

“I was watching them work,” Bouchard said, “wishing one day — dreaming — that he’ll write my name somewhere.”

The previous time a runner-up won only three games in the Wimbledon final was 1992, when Steffi Graf beat Monica Seles. Before that, it hadn’t happened since 1983, when another Czech lefty, Martina Navratilova, defeated Andrea Jaeger.

Just 10 times in the history of a women’s tournament first played in 1884 has a champion ceded fewer games in the final than Kvitova did.

Kvitova, who was thrilled to have nine-time champion present Navratilova Saturday, remains the only player born in the 1990s to win a major singles title.

Bouchard, 20, would have been the second.

New partners top Bryan twins for title THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON — American Jack Sock and Canadian Vasek Pospisil made their first tournament together a championship-winning one, defeating Bob and Mike Bryan 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 6-4, 36, 7-5 in the all-North American Wimbledon doubles final on Saturday.

Sock and Pospisil broke the Bryan brothers’ service in the final game on their fifth match point.

The 21-year-old Sock became the third-youngest player to win both a Grand Slam men’s doubles title and a Grand Slam mixed doubles championship in the Open era, adding to the mixed title he won with American Melanie Oudin at the U.S. Open in 2011.

Todd Woodbridge and John McEnroe, both 20, were the only men to win both titles at a younger age, with McEnroe being the youngest.

Women’s Doubles: Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci completed a career doubles Grand Slam on Saturday with a 6-1, 6-3 win over Timea Babos and Kristina in the Mladenovic Wimbledon women’s final.

The Italian pair, playing in their eighth Grand Slam final, broke their opponents’ serve in the sixth game of the

LEGION From Page B1 Three Rivers tied the NW Stars 8-8 in a game that reached the two-hour time limit after seven innings Saturday.

Sam Johnson went 3-for4 with a triple and two RBIs and Zach Inskeep had a pair of RBI singles for Three Rivers. Tyler Dordan drove in two runs and Brad Snow scored twice. Joe Dotson pitched the first five innings, giving up four runs, before Garrett McCoy finished on the mound, allowing three

final set under a closed roof on Centre Court — rain began falling shortly after Petra Kvitova’s singles final win over Eugenie Bouchard.

The Italians, who fell to the ground and hugged after the match ended, have now won five of the last 10 Grand Slam doubles titles.

Babos, from Hungary, and French player Mladenovic, were making their debut as a team in a Grand Slam tournament.

Mixed Doubles: Nenad Zimonjic of Serbia and 2011 U.S. Open singles champion Samantha Stosur of Australia won the Wimbledon mixed doubles title Sunday with a 6-4, 6-2 win over Max Mirnyi of Belarus and Taiwan’s Chan Hao-ching.

Zimonjic and Stosur broke their opponents’ service in the third game of the second set to put them on the way to their first Grand Slam title together.

Stosur, who won the U.S. Open women’s singles in 2011, won a Grand Slam mixed doubles title for the third time, including with Bob Bryan at Wimbledon in 2008.

Zimonjic has won four other major mixed titles and also captured three men’s doubles titles with Daniel Nestor, including 2008 and 2009 at Wimbledon.

hits and one unearned run.

On Sunday, Three Rivers fell 8-3 to Toyota Baseball of Seattle in the fifth-place game.

Taylor Travess hit a solo home run in the first inning, but Three Rivers did not score again until the sixth.

Johnson walked, Inskeep doubled and Tyler Dordan hit an RBI single.

Dordan led the offense with two hits, while Brad Snow pitched a complete game.

Three Rivers returns to league play Tuesday, with a game against the Mid-Valley Rockets in Albany.

title in French Open PRO BASKETBALL James will meet with Riley to discuss future MIAMI — Before LeBron James makes his next decision, Pat Riley will get a chance to convince him to stay in Miami.

Two people familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that James will meet with the Heat president this week before making a decision about where to play next season. The time and location of the meeting were still being scheduled.

Monday would seem difficult, unless James’ schedule changes. He has a commercial shoot planned and was expected to travel to Las Vegas later in the day for his annual camp with some of the nation’s best young basketball players, an event that opens Wednesday. James also has been planning a trip to Brazil for the World Cup final on July 13.

There’s urgency from the Heat perspective as well.

NBA players can begin signing new contracts Thursday, with some deals already having been agreed upon and plenty of others likely to fall into place in the coming days, so it would clearly benefit the Heat to know James’ plans sooner than later.

Rambis joins Knicks as associate head coach NEW YORK — The New York Knicks have hired Kurt Rambis as associate head coach, reuniting him with former teammate and head coach Derek Fisher.

Knicks president Phil Jackson made the announcement today. Rambis and Fisher played 10 seasons together with the Los Angeles Lakers. He spent 13 seasons on the Lakers bench, including seven under Jackson.

Rambis was part of eight NBA title teams with the Lakers, either as a player, assistant coach or adviser/assistant general manager.

SAINT-QUENTIN-ENYVELINES, France — Graeme McDowell rallied to successfully defend his French Open title, overcoming an eight-stroke deficit in rainy conditions for a oneshot victory.

McDowell, from Northern Ireland, closed with a 4-under 67 to finish at 5-under 279 total on Le Golf National’s Albatross Course, the site of the 2018 Ryder Cup. American Kevin Stadler, the leader after each of the first three rounds, finished with a 76 to tie for second with Thailand’s Thongchai Jaidee (72).

AUTO RACING Force earns 140th win of his NHRA career NORWALK, Ohio — John Force raced to his 140th career victory, beating Ron Capps in the Funny Car final in the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals.

The 65-year-old Force powered his Ford Mustang to a winning pass of 4.113 seconds at 317.27 mph for his first victory in Norwalk. He also won the season-opening event in Pomona, California.

Antron Brown won in Top Fuel, Erica Enders-Stevens in Pro Stock, and Andrew Hines in Pro Stock.

Brown raced to his fifth Top Fuel win of the season and the 46th of his career, beating Shawn Langdon with a 3.797 at 318.84. It also was Brown’s first victory in Norwalk.

Enders-Stevens won for the fourth time this season, outrunning Dave Connolly with a 6.632 at 210.14 in her Chevy Camaro. The points leader also won for the first time Norwalk.

Hines raced to his third win of the season and fourth at the track, riding his Harley-Davidson to a 6.901 at 193.96 against Hector Arana.

TENNIS OLYMPICS Wimbledon win pushes Three cities still are in Djokovic back up to No. 1 running for 2022 Games LONDON — Wimbledon LAUSANNE, Switzerland — The International Olympic Committee has retained three bid cities in the race for the 2022 Winter Olympics — Beijing, Oslo and Almaty, Kazakhstan.

The three were the only remaining contenders after a series of withdrawals by other candidates.

The IOC executive board decided Monday to approve all three as finalists rather than cut the field any further.

The cities must submit their detailed bid files to the IOC by next January. The host city will be selected in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on July 31, 2015.

The bid race began with six cities, but has been cut in half by the withdrawals of Stockholm; Krakow, Poland; and Lviv, Ukraine.

champion Novak Djokovic has replaced Rafael Nadal at No. 1 in the ATP rankings, while runner-up Roger Federer has moved up one spot to No. 3.

In all, there were eight changes in the top 10 Monday, a day after Djokovic beat Federer in five sets for his second championship at the All England Club.

Djokovic was last ranked No. 1 nine months ago. This is his 102nd week atop the rankings overall, the eighthmost in history.

Andy Murray dropped five spots to No. 10 by losing in the quarterfinals a year after winning Wimbledon.

Federer, who was bidding for a record eighth title at the grass-court major tournament, swapped places with Swiss countryman Stan Wawrinka, who slid to No. 4.

Oakland’s Jeff Samardzija pitches against the Toronto Blue Jays in the fourth inning Sunday. Samardzija was making his debut in Oakland.

Samardzija sparkles in Oakland debut THE ASSOCIATED PRESS OAKLAND, Calif. — Jeff Samardzija pitched seven strong innings to win his Oakland debut and the Athletics beat the Toronto Blue Jays 4-2 Sunday to complete a four-game sweep.

Samardzija, acquired a day earlier in a trade with the Chicago Cubs, received several standing ovations. He was cheered during pregame warmups and again after striking out the side in the seventh.

Samardzija gave up one run and four MLB hits. He struck out Recap five and walked one while earning his first win since June 7.

Samardzija was 2-7 with the Cubs despite a 2.83 ERA. Jed Lowrie had two hits and scored twice, and leadoff hitter John Jaso added a pair of hits and an RBI for the A’s, who won their fourth straight following a three-game sweep in Detroit.

Rays 7, Tigers 3: All-Star David Price came within an out of a complete game in helping Tampa Bay climb out of last place in the AL East.

The Rays have won three straight and eight of nine to move a half-game ahead of defending champion Boston in the standings. Tampa Bay had sole possession of the cellar for 39 consecutive days.

Price (8-7) received his fourth AllStar selection before the game, and he allowed three runs and seven hits before being pulled amid rain, thunder and lightning with two outs in the ninth.

Jake McGee came on with two on and got the final out for his fifth save in six chances.

Yankees 9, Twins 7: Former Oregon State star Jacoby Ellsbury homered, doubled and drove in four runs as New York took a huge lead then held off Minnesota.

Down 9-0 in the fourth inning, the Twins began rallying and eventually brought the potential winning run to the plate with two outs in the ninth.

Kurt Suzuki grounded out with runners at the corners to end it.

Before the game, the Yankees traded lefty Vidal Nuno to Arizona for righthanded starter Brandon McCarthy. New York also cut outfielder Alfonso Soriano.

had three hits for the Yankees, who have won 14 of 18 overall at Target Field.

Orioles 7, Red Sox 6, 12 innings: David Lough tripled to lead off the 12th inning and scored on J.J. Hardy’s single as Baltimore recovered after blowing a five-run lead.

Hardy and Nelson Cruz each had three hits for Baltimore, which has won six of seven. Cruz had five hits Saturday in the second game of a day-night doubleheader and hit safely in seven straight at-bats before flying out in the fifth.

Indians 4, Royals 1: Corey Kluber (8-6) allowed four hits and struck out 10 in 8 1-3 innings, and Carlos Santana and Yan Gomes homered for Cleveland.

Angels 6, Astros 1: Garrett Richards (10-2) won his sixth decision in seven starts, striking out a careerhigh 11 to lead surging Los Angeles to the four-game sweep and its 10th straight home win.

Albert Pujols drove in the Angels’ first two runs with a bases-loaded single and Kole Calhoun homered, helping them go 15 games over .500 for the first time since ending the 2012 season at 89-73. The Halos swept a four-game set at home for the first time since July 2011 and are 21-3 at the “Big A” since May 17 — their best 24-game stretch at home in franchise history.

White Sox 1, Mariners 0: Hector Noesi (3-6) pitched five-hit ball into the seventh inning for his first win in a month, leading Chicago over Seattle.

Chicago finished with just two hits after it had four in Saturday’s 3-2 loss in 14 innings. But Conor Gillaspie scored on a wild pitch in the first and Noesi combined with two relievers on a fivehitter.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Diamondbacks 3, Braves 1: Wade Miley earned his first win since early May, Paul Goldschmidt hit a two-run homer and Arizona stopped the Braves’ nine-game winning streak.

Miley (4-6) allowed one run on five hits and one walk in 6 2-3 innings. The left-hander was 0-3 in his previous nine starts and had not won since beating the White Sox on May 10. The win snapped his streak of five straight no-decisions.

Giants 5, Padres 3: Tim Lincecum (8-5) continued his mastery of San Diego, taking a shutout into the seventh

inning against the Padres 11 days after he no-hit them, and the Giants won two straight to win only their second series in nearly a month.

Brandon Belt drove in two runs for San Francisco and Hunter Pence had three hits.

Nationals 2, Cubs 1: Ryan Zimmerman’s eighth inning single drove in the go-ahead run for surging Washington.

Denard Span’s hustle turned a soft hit to right field off Pedro Strop (1-4) into a double leading off the eighth.

Two outs later, the Cubs intentionally walked Adam LaRoche to bring up Zimmerman, who ripped a single to left that scored Span.

Dodgers 8, Rockies 2: Matt Kemp had four hits and drove in two runs, Adrian Gonzalez had three RBIs and Los Angeles won three of four in the series.

Juan Uribe added three hits for the Dodgers, who lead the NL West by a half-game over San Francisco.

Marlins 8, Cardinals 4: Henderson Alvarez (6-3) worked seven stingy innings and started the key rally with the first of his career-best three hits, helping Miami take two of three from its spring training partners.

Pirates 6, Phillies 2: Jeff Locke (21) gave up three hits and a walk in eight innings, and Pittsburgh completed its first series sweep of the season.

Pittsburgh had failed to finish a sweep in eight previous tries this season. Philadelphia was swept for the eighth time. The Pirates (47-41) moved a season-high six games over .500, while the Phillies (37-51) fell a seasonhigh 14 games below .500.

Reds 4, Brewers 2: Jay Bruce emerged from the deepest slump of his career — 0-for-26 — with a tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning that rallied Cincinnati over Milwaukee.

The Reds gained a game on the NL Central leaders by taking two of three in their series, moving to six back.

Cincinnati has won 10 of 15 overall.

The Brewers have the NL’s best record despite losing five of six.

INTERLEAGUE Mets 8, Rangers 4: Zack Wheeler breezed into the seventh inning, Anthony Recker hit a three-run homer in a five-run first and New York beat Texas for a series win.

Oakland places six players on All-Star roster NEW YORK (AP) — The trade that put Jeff Samardzija on a postseason contender cost him a chance to pitch in his first All-Star game.

A day after Samardzija was dealt from the Chicago Cubs to Oakland, a big league-high six Athletics were picked Sunday for the game at Target Field in Minnesota on July 15.

That doesn’t include Samardzija, selected as a National League All-Star.

Major League Baseball said he is ineligible to play because of the league switch.

The 29-year-old righthander, who was 2-7 with a 2.83 ERA and 103 strikeouts for the Cubs, won his American League debut Sunday when he allowed one run in seven innings for a 4-2 victory over Toronto. He will be introduced with the NL players before the All-Star game; still to be decided is whether he wears a Cubs or A’s uniform — or a generic NL jersey.

Oakland, with the best record in the majors, has its most All-Stars since 1975: left-handers Sean Doolittle and Scott Kazmir; catcher Derek Norris; first baseman Brandon Moss; third baseman Josh Donaldson; and outfielder Yoenis Cespedes.

“It’s really cool,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said. “We were hoping for something like this.”

Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, playing his 20th and final season, was chosen for his 14th All-Star team and will start for the ninth time.

He gets reunited with Seattle second baseman Robinson Cano, his former doubleplay partner in New York.

Mariano Rivera, the retiring Yankees reliever, was the center of attention at last year’s All-Star game when the Mets hosted in Citi Field.

Jeter could be in the spotlight this year.

“All-Star game was in New York last year. It’s a little bit different,” Jeter said. “I don’t go into it with any expectations. Just trying to enjoy myself and have fun with whoever is here.”

Among the big names bypassed entirely were slugger David Ortiz and closer Koji Uehara from World Series champion Boston, San Francisco catcher Buster Posey, and Dodgers pitcher Josh Beckett.

“I had a chance to talk with David, and he felt the four days of rest might be more advantageous to him,” said Boston skipper John Farrell, the AL manager. “He

was a pro about it. He spoke his mind and had a lot of input in the decisions.”

Also elected by fans to start for the AL were Detroit first baseman Miguel Cabrera, Donaldson, and outfielders Jose Bautista of Toronto, Adam Jones of Baltimore and Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels.

Baltimore’s Matt Wieters, sidelined by season-ending elbow surgery on June 17, was elected to start at catcher and will be replaced by Kansas City’s Salvador Perez.

Orioles bopper Nelson Cruz, tied for the major league home run lead with 27, was voted in by fans at designated hitter after serving a 50-game suspension last year for violating baseball’s drug agreement.

Elected to the NL starting lineup were Arizona first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, Philadelphia second baseman Chase Utley, Colorado shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, Milwaukee third baseman Aramis Ramirez and St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina along with outfielders Carlos Gomez of Milwaukee, Andrew McCutchen of Pittsburgh and Yasiel Puig of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Yankees pitcher Masahiro Tanaka and Chicago White

Sox first baseman Jose Abreu, a pair of rookies off to superlative starts, were among 26 first-time AllStars and 24 foreign-born players.

Tanaka and setup man Dellin Betances are the first Yankees rookie pitchers to be picked as All-Stars since Spec Shea in 1947.

Surprise selections included Pittsburgh utilityman Josh Harrison and lefthander Tony Watson, and St. Louis reliever Pat Neshek, who is from Minnesota and began his career with the hometown Twins.

“I shook head my head for a while. I couldn’t believe it,” Neshek said, his voice cracking with emotion. “It’s awesome to be rewarded like that and to get the chance to play against the best.”

Milwaukee closer Francisco Rodriguez made his fifth All-Star team, his first since 2009.

Bautista, at 5.68 million, received the most votes for the second time in four years.

Tulowitzki topped the NL at 5.35 million.

Other players omitted despite strong credentials were Cincinnati pitcher Alfredo Simon, Seattle third baseman Kyle Seager and San Diego closer Huston Street.

Sports

Hamilton avoids crashes for win SILVERSTONE, England (AP) — Lewis Hamilton won a crash-filled British Grand Prix on Sunday to cut Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg’s lead in the drivers’ championship from 29 points to just four after the German had his first nonfinish of the season.

Hamilton, the 2008 champion, started sixth on the grid. The British driver leapt to fourth on the opening lap before it was redflagged, and suspended for an hour, following a crash involving 2007 champion Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari and Felipe Massa of Williams.

Hamilton then took the lead after 29 laps as Rosberg retired with gearbox failure.

Hamilton came home 30 seconds clear of Finn Valtteri Bottas of Williams, who started 14th.

Australian Daniel Ricciardo of Red Bull finished third ahead of Jenson Button, the 2009 champion, of McLaren and defending four-time champion Sebastian Vettel in the second Red Bull. Two-time champion Fernando Alonso of Ferrari was sixth.

It was Hamilton’s fifth win this year, his second in his home event and the 27th of his career, drawing him level with fellow-Briton and three-time champion Jackie Stewart in the record books.

“England! What a great feeling guys, I couldn’t be happier, I’m sorry about yes-

terday, but a fantastic job today, as ever!” a delighted Hamilton told his team by radio.

Hamilton made a mistake in qualifying on Saturday after wrongly deciding the track was too damp, or wet, for him to improve his best lap time.

From the winners’ podium, Hamilton added: “This shows you never give up!

Right now, it’s very mixed emotions at the moment, but we have the greatest fans here. It was you guys who spurred me on. At the beginning, I allowed him (Rosberg) to get a good gap and look after the tires.

“But we came out on the harder tire and could not believe I had that kind of pace. I don’t want to see a teammate fail, I want a onetwo, but I really needed this result.”

Raikkonen was involved in a spectacular high-speed opening lap accident that halted the race for an hour to allow repairs to the barriers.

The Ferrari driver lost control, spun, hit the barriers and collided with the Williams of Brazilian Massa, who was starting his 200th Grand Prix.

Both escaped serious injury but Raikkonen, whose car was massively damaged, limped away and required later X-rays on his right ankle. Massa was forced out with a damaged car, but like Rosberg, stayed to cheer the teams at the end of the race.

NASCAR

“NASCAR’s mission, as it has always been, is to create a fair playing field where anyone can come and comp e te ,” Jewke s sa i d i n a statement. “Our job is to support and strengthen all of the teams, large and small, across all of our series and we’ll continue to d o t h a t . NASCA R i s a unique community with hundreds of stakeholders.

They all have a voice and always will.”

From Page B1 “Roger Penske thought was ‘Let’s go for the low hanging fruit,’” Kauffman said.

NASCAR chief communications officer Brett Jewkes said the sanctioning body had few specifics on the RTA’s “structure or purpose” so it would be inappropriate to comment on the group.

The Associated Press

Juan Pablo Montoya makes a pit stop during the Pocono IndyCar 500 on Sunday. Montoya won the race.

Montoya captures win at Pocono LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Juan Pablo Montoya noticed the Colombian fans waving flags and wildly cheering for him as he zipped toward the checkered flag. Moments after celebrating, Montoya ducked his way through the crowd waiting at Victory Lane and headed toward the grandstands to sign autographs and pose for pictures.

“I had to say thanks for coming,” he said.

Montoya saved his deepest gratitude for car owner Roger Penske.

Montoya won the IndyCar race Sunday at Pocono Raceway, the highlight of a triumphant return to openwheel racing after seven years in NASCAR. Up ahead, a serious run at the IndyCar championship.

“I think people know I’m coming,” Montoya said.

Montoya won for the first time in the CART/IndyCar Series since 2000 and had his first major victory since he won a road-course race at Watkins Glen in NASCAR in 2010.

Penske’s faith in bringing the talented and tempestuous Montoya aboard was rewarded.

“It’s been a long road, a lot harder than people realize,” Montoya said.

Helio Castroneves was second to make it a 1-2 finish Sunday for Team Penske. With double points awarded in

the 500-mile races, Castroneves moved into a tie for the points lead with Team Penske teammate Will Power.

Team Penske did face some roadblocks that could lead to some interesting conversations this week at the shop.

Power was hit with a blocking penalty on Castroneves late in the race and had to serve a drive through penalty, costing him a shot at racing for the win. He finished 10th.

Carlos Munoz, Ryan Briscoe and Scott Dixon completed the top five.

Montoya, who won from the pole, took the lead for good when Tony Kanaan was forced to pit for fuel with four laps left. Montoya took it from there and continued to stamp himself a player in the championship hunt. He moved to fourth in the standings.

“As soon as we signed him, I knew he would be an asset for us, and a headache,” Castroneves said.

Montoya damaged his front wing when he connected with Power on a pass for the lead on the 167th lap.

Power’s penalty troubles continued at Pocono when he blocked Castroneves on the 171st lap, effectively ending his shot at victory.

“You tell them, ‘Let’s keep each other on the track,”’ Penske said. “But that was a little tight right there.”

Power said he tried to let Castroneves go and had no intention of blocking him. Power has been smacked

with a rash of penalties this season, ranging from pit speed violations to contact with other drivers.

“I’ve got to stop it,” he said. “I’ve got to stop getting drive-throughs.”

Montoya, the 1999 CART champion and 2000 Indianapolis 500, winner took the checkered flag to the sight of hundreds of Colombian fans waving the flag and cheering him on.

It was just the kind of scene he pictured when he decided to head home to open wheel. Montoya wanted a competitive ride again after lackluster results driving for Chip Ganassi in NASCAR. He knew his open wheel return would have a learning curve: Montoya last ran in CART in 2000, then left Formula One midway through the 2006 season for NASCAR. After only two top 10s in his first seven starts, Montoya reeled off a third, second and seventh in his past three.

Now, he has the win needed to erase any lingering doubts that has move back to open wheel was the right one.

“Are you kidding? This guy is unbelievable,” Castroneves said. “Coming back after 15 years to win a race, he did a great job.”

The 200-lap race was caution free for the first 158 laps until Graham Rahal spun to bring out the yellow. The 158 consecutive laps of green flag racing to open a race was the longest stretch for a 500-mile race in IndyCar history.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE STATE OF OREGON FOR THE COUNTY OF COOS

Nationstar Mortgage LLC d/b/a Champion Mortgage Company, Plaintiff, vs.

ROGER GOULD, ESQ., PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE ESTATE OF CHARLES D. GREENOUGH; JOEY GRANT; JANET BARKER; UNKNOWN HEIRS OF CHARLES D. GREENOUGH; UNITED STATES OF AMERICA; LYNDA GREENOUGH; CHARLES REAGAN; STATE OF OREGON; OCCUPANTS OF THE PREMISES Defendants.

TO THE DEFENDANTS: Unknown Heirs of Charles D. Greenough NOTICE TO DEFENDANT: READ THESE PAPERS CAREFULLY! A lawsuit has been started against you in the above-entitled Court by Nationstar Mortgage LLC d/b/a Champion Mortgage Company, Plaintiff.

Plaintiff’s claim is stated in the written Complaint, a copy of which is on file at the Coos County Courthouse. You must “appear” in this case or the other side will win automatically. To “appear” you must file with the court a legal paper called a “motion” or “answer.” The “motion” or “answer” must be given to the court clerk or administrator within 30 days along with the required filing fee.

TUESDAY, JULY 8, 2014 You are at a turning point in your life this year. Your creative and artistic talents will spur you to try new things and meet new people. Letting go of the past will become easier as you follow the steps that look most promising.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Participating in sporting events or activities with friends will help clear your head and confirm what you should do next. Change doesn’t come easily, but it is necessary.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Clashes with a business or personal partner will leave you questioning the relationship. Rethink your steps and consider the best way to move forward. Practice pragmatism.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Participate in an entertaining event that involves large groups of people. You will have a better time than you anticipate, and you are likely to meet someone who can influence your future.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Handle your own financial matters, or you will end up feeling suspicious of a partner or your banker.

Assess the reason for any discrepancies that show up, and make adjustments.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Where affairs of the heart are concerned, be true to your own. If your lover is truly committed, he or she won’t try to turn you into someone you’re not.

SPONSORED BY

CLASSIFIEDS WORK! Let The World help you place your ad.

541-269-1222 SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You may be dissatisfied with current events, but time is on your side, so be patient. Anyone who is currently opposing you will eventually see things your way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Don’t try doing everything on your own. You will receive valuable guidance if you are willing to ask for assistance. You will form a strong alliance with the person who helps you out.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Consider the consequences of your actions. You will end up facing trouble if you act impulsively.

Listen to reason, and you will find a safer and better way to move forward.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — You will win admiration from your peers with your wit and wisdom today. Consider travel as a way to increase your knowledge and expand your awareness.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Too much worrying can lead to minor health issues. If you are troubled over a recent disagreement with a friend, make amends.

It takes a special person to admit mistakes and issue apologies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Plan a getaway that will bring you closer to nature or the beliefs and traditions you honor. Romance is on the rise, and spending time with someone special will bring you closer together.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You should make efforts to work extra hours or pick up a part-time job. If you are industrious and determined, you will grab the attention of someone who can help you advance.
