GOOD MORNING Mayor to portray scoundrel for Historic Society event BY AMY OBERLIN amyo@kpcnews.net

ANGOLA — A skit about a famous Steuben County scoundrel has been added to this year’s Steuben County Historical Society Treasure Hunt. The mobile history hunt Silas Doty starts at 1 p.m. Sunday at the Cline House Museum, 313 E. Maumee St., Angola. Participants will receive packets identifying historic sites and questions to answer about them. Prizes are awarded to the best answers, which will be judged at 3:30 p.m. at the Cline Museum. Prior to this year’s treasure hunt — the second annual — there will be a historical skit on the Cline lawn. Mayor Richard Hickman will play the part of Silas Doty, an 1800s horse thief and murderer who twice broke out of the Steuben County Jail. “Some say he stole from the rich and gave to the poor,” said Jim Somers of the Historical Society. “There are many legends and exaggerations about Silas; the library’s website has a colorful article.” The skit will feature Doty and the sheriff, which may be played by Steuben County Sheriff Tim Troyer if he is available, said Somers. The performance will lead into the treasure hunt, and provide background on county history that doesn’t have a specific site. Registration forms for the treasure hunt are at Carnegie Public Library of Steuben County, 322 S. Wayne St., Angola, or by emailing sdcfish@yahoo.com or somersjg@aol.com. For more information, contact Somers at 833-9852.

Whirlwind year for Wagoner BY MIKE MARTURELLO mmarturello@kpcmedia.com

ANGOLA — A big year for defense attorney Linda Wagoner has gotten bigger. After representing two defendants in high-profile cases this spring, Wagoner has a third, as co-counsel for Mahfuz Huq, 47, who is accused of the Aug. 9, 1989, murder of Todd Kelley, 19, Hamilton. “It’s been a busy year,” Wagoner said on Wednesday as she hustled to the Steuben County Jail to meet with clients. On Thursday she would find herself seated in the jail’s interview room where defendants appear in video conference with the courts. She is serving as Huq’s

attorney along with James Voyles, an Indianapolis defense attorney. Here are the other high-profile cases that have come to trial this year with Wagoner Wagoner as the defense attorney, in both cases as pauper counsel: • Zao Garth Burrell, 25, who was found guilty in March of the June 3, 2012, murder of Brent Dombroski, 40, Angola, in a drug deal gone bad. Burrell was sentenced to 105 years in prison by Steuben Superior Court Judge William Fee. • Donald William Myers III,

35, Angola, was found guilty but mentally ill in April for attempted murder stemming from an April 29, 2004, incident in which he went on a shooting rampage of vehicles on U.S. 20, including shooting at a police officer. Myers was sentenced to 30 years on each count of attempted murder for a total of 120 years by Steuben Circuit Court Judge Allen Wheat. Huq, who was returned to the United States on Saturday after being on the lam for 21 years then was held in prison in India until his extradition, is scheduled to go on trial Dec. 9 in Steuben Superior Court. In 1989, it was the first murder case ever assigned to the relatively new Superior Court.

ANGOLA — A stoic Mahfuz Huq faced Steuben County Magistrate Randy Coffey on Thursday during an initial hearing on a charge of murder, an act police allege Huq committed 24 years ago next Friday. Huq, 47, was returned to Steuben County on Tuesday afternoon after being processed upon his return to the United States in the Marion County Jail. Huq arrived in Indianapolis on Saturday and underwent medical exams before being transported Huq to Angola on Tuesday. He had been detained in a prison in New Dehli after Indiana and federal officials caught up with him and arrested him in February 2011.

Bennett resigns from education post in Florida

Auburn adviser says markets can rise higher

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida’s education commissioner resigned Thursday amid allegations that he changed the grade of a charter school run by a major Republican donor during his previous job as Indiana’s school chief. Tony Bennett announced his immediate resignation at a news conference, saying that he while he did nothing wrong he didn’t want to be a distraction to ongoing efforts to overhaul Florida’s education system. Emails published by The Associated Press this week show that Bennett and his Indiana staff scrambled last fall to ensure Christel DeHaan’s school received an A, despite poor 10th-grade algebra scores that initially earned it a C. Bennett called that interpretation “malicious and unfounded” and said he would call for Indiana’s inspector general to look into the allegations because he is certain he will be cleared of wrongdoing. He said it would be unfair to Gov. Rick Scott “to have to spend my time and the State Board (of Education’s) time, as things continue to trickle out, defending myself.” He called the

allegations “politically motivated.” He said the decision to step down was his and that both Scott and former Gov. Jeb Bush had urged him to remain on the job. “The decision to resign is mine and mine only because I believe that when this discussion turns to an adult we lose the discussion about making life better for children,” Bennett said.

Auburn dancer earns coveted apprenticeship BY KATHRYN BASSETT kbassett@kpcmedia.com

offered a corps contract. “My reaction to the apprenticeship was just tears,” Miller said. “In late February of this year, I was told that I was being considered for an apprenticeship with New York City Ballet, but they could not make any official offers until after the School of American Ballet’s annual Workshop performance in early June. In this performance, I was performing the First Variation from George Balanchine’s “Divertimento No. 15.” For those four months, I worked as hard as I possibly could, in both class and rehearsal. I wanted to make sure that when the time came, if I didn’t get the apprenticeship, I had done everything that I possibly could have done. It was a very stressful and nerve-wracking four months to say the least.” The week after the workshop performance, Miller and a friend were called to a meeting. “With wide eyes and in complete silence, we walked back to the office,” Miller said. “All of the teachers from the school were standing around and I started to tear up. It was rather embarrassing, because nothing had been announced yet! It was just such an overwhelming moment. “We went into the office and Peter Martins … said, ‘Let’s make this easy. Would you like to be apprentices?’ That’s when I completely lost it. I was so overjoyed, excited, and relieved. I still don’t think I have completely processed what receiving this apprenticeship means. To dance with the New York City Ballet … is so unreal.”

“To dance with the New York City Ballet … is so unreal.” Jordan Miller Ballet apprentice

• Miller will continue to live in the School of American Ballet’s on-site residence hall at Lincoln Center while undertaking her apprenticeship. Miller’s long-term goal is to continue to become the best dancer she can be, she said. “I hope that as I continue through my career, I will become less obsessed with trying to be perfect and will be able to find the freedom within myself to expand and experiment with the fun part of dancing — the performing and the artistry,” she added. Miller’s passion for ballet keeps her dedicated to the art. “That feeling when you are on stage, or even in the classroom, and are completely in the moment, when nothing else matters, you just feel like the most empowered person in the world,” she said. “The urge to exceed expectations and constantly improve upon things you already know keeps ballet interesting and doesn’t let you become complacent. Of course it’s frustrating and defeating sometimes, but the good always trumps the bad. I can’t imagine myself doing anything else.”

Two dead in Fort Wayne shooting FORT WAYNE — A triple shooting on Fort Wayne’s southwest side Wednesday night left

GARRETT — A Hudson woman’s blood alcohol level was allegedly more than twice the legal limit when she crashed her car into a parked vehicle Wednesday night, seriously injuring her daughter, police said. Erin Tarlton, 23, of the 7400 block of South C.R. 800W, was booked into the DeKalb County Jail on a charge of operating while intoxicated causing serious bodily injury. She posted $1,500 bond and was released at 12:45 p.m. Thursday. Tarlton’s 3-year-old daughter was seriously injured in Tarlton the crash, according to Garrett Police Chief Keith Hefner. Another of Tarlton’s children, a 5-yearold, was also in the vehicle but was uninjured. Hefner declined to give specifics regarding the nature of the 3-year-old’s injuries, but said the girl did undergo surgery late Wednesday. A preliminary crash report did not indicate whether the children were properly restrained at the time of the crash. According to a press release from the Garrett Police Department, shortly before 10 p.m. Wednesday police responded to a crash involving two vehicles in the 300 block of South Hamsher Street. Police determined that Tarlton had been driving a 2003 Chrysler when it struck a parked vehicle. The airbags on the Chrysler did deploy, Hefner said, and Tarlton was treated for abrasions at DeKalb Health before being transported to the jail. Hefner said Tarlton’s blood alcohol level after the crash was 0.17 percent. The legal limit in Indiana is 0.08 percent. “If you’re going to start drinking and you have two little kids, you better not be driving,” Hefner said. The father of the children was notified, Hefner said, as was the DeKalb County Department of Child Services. THIS STORY was posted on

Vocational co-op will have IMPACT BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — IMPACT Institute. That’s the new name for the Four County Area Vocational Cooperative, unveiled Thursday before elected officials, school administrators, teachers, students and staff at the Dowling Street campus. “It’s about making an educational impact,” said IMPACT Institute director Tim Holcomb, as the name and logo were uncovered on the campus entry sign. The rebranding ceremony included historical highlights and information about the name change. Comments came from state Sen. Sue Glick, R-LaGrange, Kendallville Mayor Suzanne Handshoe, IMPACT Institute assistant director James Walmsley and the institute’s marine mechanics instructor, Ryan Ramsey, a 2004 East Noble graduate who completed the institute’s marine mechanics program and returned to teach. Walmsley said the name change process began about 18 months ago with internal discussions. It wasn’t finalized until June 13, when the superintendent’s council, the institute’s

governing board, voted to approve the new name and logo. The council is made up of superintendents from 12 member school districts in Noble, LaGrange, DeKalb, Steuben and Whitley counties. The institute has been providing adult education services to Whitley County for the past two years; Smith-Green school corporation joined July 1. “We did not approach this lightly,” Walmsley said. Institute administrators hired a Fort Wayne marketing firm to help with process. Many factors went into the decision to change the name, according to Walmsley. The name Four County Area Vocational Cooperative sometimes became confused with another four-county school in Archibold, Ohio. “We wanted to create a distinction,“ he said. The institute now offers services in five counties in northeast Indiana, and the new name will allow for further expansion in the future. “It’s long, and people often shortened it to four county vocational or FCAVC, so we wanted a new one- or two-word

name,” Walmsley said. Another reason for the name change is to eliminate the word “vocational,” because the state has worked to get away from that, according to Walmsley. The old name doesn’t encompass everything the institute offers, including adult education services and post-secondary courses. Administrators held focus groups with students and teaching staff to get their input on a name change and the institute’s future. “We’re not changing the name because something needs fixing. We are preparing ourselves for the future,” Walmsley said. Handshoe said the institute is not about Kendallville, but about the region and changing the region’s educational status. “Our goal is to step up our education level by 2020. IMPACT Institute is an important part of that goal,” she said. Glick, a long-time supporter of IMPACT Institute’s educational services and partnerships with Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne, Ivy Tech and Indiana Tech, said it’s all about educating for future jobs and current jobs,

CLEVELAND (AP) — Standing before the man who enslaved and raped her for a decade, Michelle Knight described how the world had changed in the three months since they last saw each other: The captive, she said, was now free and the oppressor would be locked away forever to “die a little every day.” Ariel Castro’s fate had been determined long before he was sentenced Thursday to life in prison plus 1,000 years.

Congress leaves budget battle, heads home WASHINGTON (AP) — Leaving piles of unfinished business for the fall, Congress began exiting Washington Thursday for a five-week vacation with its accomplishments few, its efforts at budgeting in tatters and its collective nerves frayed by months of feuding. The House’s chief accomplishment for the week was a bipartisan Wednesday vote to deal with spiking student loan interest rates, readying that legislation for President Barack Obama’s signature. But that bit of progress came the very day that a Republican strategy of embracing painful automatic budget cuts imploded with the collapse of a major transportation and housing bill. That measure fell victim, top lawmakers said, to opposition from both conservative and more moderate Republicans and laid bare the flaws in the party’s budget strategy, which promised deeper cuts to domestic programs than the rank and file were willing to deliver in votes on funding bills implementing the pledge. Before leaving town, the GOP House prepared its 40th attack on Obama’s signature health care law on Friday and slated votes on other legislation aimed at embarrassing the administration and sharpening the party’s political message for encounters back home with constituents. Also on Friday, GOP leaders looked forward to an easier time with two other votes, one to block the Internal Revenue Service from enforcing “Obamacare’s” penalties on people who don’t buy health insurance and another on the “Stop Government Abuse Act,” which among its provisions would allow

people to tape record conversations they have with IRS agents and other federal workers. As the Senate raced out its own doors on Thursday, it confirmed Obama’s nomination of Samantha Power as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. That capped an unusually productive run of advancing administration nominations — but one that came only after majority Democrats threatened to rewrite the rules to take away the GOP’s right to filibuster such nominees. Senators also held a bipartisan closed-door luncheon in hopes of continuing the fragile sense of comity that has enveloped the chamber since it defused the filibuster battle. But that session came just minutes after Republican Senators banded together to shut down the Democrats’ attempt to advance their own, far more generous version of the transportation and housing bill, which was filled with funding for popular items such as road and bridge repairs and community development grants for local projects, Republicans united to kill the $54 billion measure, following the instructions of Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who kept GOP defections to only one: moderate Susan Collins of Maine, who co-wrote the measure from her position on the Appropriations Committee. Republicans killed the bill because it exceeded the punishing spending limits required under automatic budget cuts that were themselves the product of Washington’s failure to deal with its fiscal problems.

a crowded courtroom put a final seal on the kidnapping case that horrified the nation and subjected three young women to years of torment in Castro’s ramshackle house. “You took 11 years of my life away and I have got it back,” Knight said. “I spent 11 years in hell. Now your hell is just beginning.” A short time later, the 53-year-old former school bus driver apologized to his victims briefly in a rambling, defiant statement. He repeatedly blamed his sex addiction, his former wife and others while claiming most of the sex was consensual and that the women were never tortured. “These people are trying to paint me as a monster,” he said. “I’m not a monster.

I’m sick.” The sentence was a foregone conclusion after Castro pleaded guilty last week to 937 counts, including aggravated murder, kidnapping, rape and assault. A deal struck with prosecutors spared him from a possible death sentence for beating and starving Knight until she miscarried. During her statement, Knight was just a few feet from Castro, seeing him for the first time since her rescue in May from the house that Castro turned into a prison with a makeshift alarm system and heavy wooden doors covering the windows. “I will live on,” she said. “You will die a little every day.”

Reading the newspaper with your child promotes reading skills, a connection to the community and some quality time of togetherness. All too often, busy parents tell me that they don’t subscribe to the newspaper because they don’t have time to read it. My response is to let them know that having a My experience as a newspaper in the teacher and a parent home is makes it clear that important their reading the newspaper for children’s with your child can be success school. an enjoyable time to in Children talk, share and boost who come from academic skills. homes rich with printed materials — newspapers, magazines, books — perform better on achievement tests. A 2001 study by Dan Sullivan at the University of Minnesota showed that when students read a newspaper once a week or more, they score higher on achievement tests. The report on this study, “Measuring Success,” can be downloaded at americanpressinstitute. org/docs/Foundation/Research/measuresuccess.pdf. An American Press Institute study from 2007 showed that newspapers play a role in encouraging young people to get involved with their communities. To read this report, go to njpa.org/NIE/ CivicReaders.pdf. The new common core standards emphasize non-fiction reading, so finding ways to foster newspaper reading is critical in the change to the new standards. My experience as a teacher and a parent makes it clear that reading the newspaper with your child can be an enjoyable time to talk, share and boost academic skills. Here are a few activities to try: Language arts • Choose a headline in the newspaper and rewrite it so it has the opposite meaning. • Look at a photo in the newspaper. Talk about what you think happened before that picture was taken and what happened after the photo was taken. Read the article or caption that goes with the photo and discuss whether or not you changed your mind about the before and after. • Read a newspaper article aloud. Have your child clap his or her hands each time you read an adjective. Repeat with an advertisement. Which has more adjectives? Math • Study the pictures in the newspaper. Count how many men are in the pictures, how many women, how many children, how many animals, how many cars. Create a graph to show the results. • On the front page of the newspaper circle all of the numbers you can find. Create a math problem with some of the numbers. • Measure the sides of three pictures. Calculate the area of each picture. Each week on Kid Scoop (kidscoop. com), we offer one or more fun activities that use the newspaper as a learning resource. Look for the Extra! Extra! and Beyond Kid Scoop sections of the page and launch a time to have fun, read and promote a lifelong habit of civic connection. Social studies • With your child, read the paper each week to identify the names of the city council members and the mayor. Keep track of each time they are mentioned and what they are saying or doing. Together come up with a definition of the jobs these elected officials do for our community. I started the Kid Scoop newspaper 25 years ago with the express purpose of getting kids excited about news and newspapers. Ultimately, involved citizens are newspaper readers and I wanted to get children started on this citizenship path early on. The extra-added benefit I discovered is that when kids read the local newspaper, they also get more excited about reading and their academic achievement grows.

It was a really hot day, and Mary Kay had the air conditioner in the car blasting away. From the back seat Luke, 4, asked, “Gramma, can you turn the warm conditioner on?”

Papa (Vince) and Mary Kay were helping buckle the grandkids in the car. Mary Kay told them good-bye and that she loved them. Zack, 4, said “I love you, too, Gramma. And I love that white-haired guy!” They were playing on the porch and Brennan, 4, said “Gramma, I will make you a cake. What kind do you want?” Mary Kay told him German chocolate was her favorite. His brother said, “Sorry, we are all out of chocolate.” Brennan said, “That’s OK, Gramma, we still have plenty of German!” The day after Father’s Day Mary Kay found a note in her kitchen written by Lily, 9.

‘Soup’ host dishes on his show, new movie NEW YORK (AP) — There’s no stopping Joel McHale this summer. The 41-year-old actor is busy with his E! reality spoof “The Soup” and preparing for the fifth season of the NBC comedy series “Community,” which starts shooting Aug. 20. He’s moving outside his comfort zone with a starring role in the upcoming supernatural thriller “Beware the Night.” He plays a New York City police officer in the film, and at the time of the interview, was shooting on location in the Bronx. McHale calls the role a dream come true, especially because he gets to work with Eric Bana. He’s also the host of the Klondike Celebrity Challenge, a social media effort. Fans decide the fate of three retro stars, including Alfonso Ribeiro of “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and ’80s pop singer Tiffany, by asking what they would do for a Klondike bar. A third star will be announced Aug. 12. McHale has taken a “one-at-a-time” approach to his various projects and says E! has been “superflexible.” In a recent interview with The Associated Press, he talked about his various projects. AP: How would you describe “Beware the Night”? McHale: Just to be in it, I was so thrilled, and then knowing I got to work with Eric Bana, who is one of my all-time favorites, was just a dream come true. Then you’ve got Olivia Munn in there and Edgar Ramirez is amazing. … This cast is dynamite, except for myself. AP: What’s it about? McHale: It’s kind of a

AP: You make fun of the Kardashian family quite a bit on “The Soup.” Their show also airs on E! Are you ever told to tone it down? McHale: Well, the Kardashians are incredibly savvy and they know if they are being talked about then that’s good. And now Kris (Jenner) has a new talk show. They’ve got every single product. They are a machine and they actually now work very hard at what they’re doing — I’m not sure what it is. … For a while I know that they weren’t (happy) and the Kardashians were going, ‘Can you stop doing that?’

But when we make fun of Bruce (Jenner,) no one has stopped me from doing that until Bruce comes up and punches me in the face. AP: Do you like the Kardashians? McHale: They’re incredibly nice. I’ve never witnessed diva behavior from them, which means they’re pretty easy to work with, which is one of the reasons they continue. So many reality stars are, their egos become so awful and then they just … peter out. AP: How many shows do you actually watch for “The Soup”? McHale: Not as many as you’d think because I almost went insane when we first started when I was watching a lot of television and I got to the point where I was watching TV all day and going home and watching TV and I was going, ‘I’m going to jump through this plate glass window if I have to watch another two hours of ‘Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,’ which was a fine show but after eight hours of television. … So, we got a bigger staff and they cover, they find things that I didn’t even know existed, like ‘Felt’ on Logo, which you should check it out because they take people’s sex therapy sessions and have puppets act them out. Yeah. They do. AP: Are you amazed that some of these shows are actually broadcast? McHale: I’m amazed all the time by what gets broadcast. It goes back to what an old friend told me back in college is that 90 percent of all art is pretty much crap and 10 percent is terrific, and so I think that’s the same for television. I think we are in an era right now of some of the best television ever, and I think there’s also the worst television ever, and I benefit from the worst part.

Hollywood auction brings in the money LOS ANGELES (AP) — Charlie Chaplin’s cane, costumes from “The Sound of Music” and a jacket worn by Steve McQueen in “Bullitt” have sold for several million dollars at an auction of Hollywood memorabilia.

Calabasas-based Profiles in History says the “Sound of Music” clothing went for $1.56 million, including the dress Julie Andrews wore while singing “Do-Re-Mi.” The tweed jacket from “Bullitt” fetched $720,000. A Dorothy dress from “The Wizard of Oz” sold for $360,000, a polka dot dress worn by Lucille Ball went for $168,000, and $54,000 was the price for an outfit worn by (The Dude) — Jeff Bridges — in “The Big Lebowski.”

Vector Adventure was quite the challenge LARGO — The Vector Adventure Eight Hour Challenge had a simple slogan. Know where you’re going. We were going to Salamonie, named by the Miami for the yellow paint from the bloodroot plant. After a restful one hour of sleep, we loaded up the bikes and kayaks and left at midnight. It poured the entire trip south. The interstate highway was the intercoastal waterway. The sky was arc welder lit up. We dropped the bicycles off at Lagro, unlocked. A small Hoosier town at 3 a.m. in a monsoon provides a decent security system. We made it to the 4 a.m. meeting, loaded the kayaks in the semi-tractor trailer and boarded the bus to the unknown starting point. Here we would be given our first map with checkpoints that needed to be located and passports that would be punched at each spot. I haven’t seen moonlight over the Wabash, but at 5 a.m., I got to see my headlamp over the Salomonie. We exited the river at Lagro and mounted the bikes. The maps had topographic lines, some physical features, a few clues, but scant information. They were deliberately sketchy, providing enough to get you headed in the right direction, but not GPS coordinate accurate. So, yes, we got lost, or as I like to say, “took the scenic route.”

We made it to the exchange area, dropped off the bikes and were handed a new map. We slid on muddy trails, waded through swollen streams and clambered up and down PAUL ravines, crossed BECKWITH fields and plodded down country roads. The recent rains created torrents along the limestone bluffs at Kokiwanee Nature Preserve. I’ve seen Niagara three times, but these waterfalls were within a couple hours drive of my house. We punched the boxes on our passport and staggered back to the bikes. We had one hour to return to the finish with just 8 miles to ride. We were going to make it. The event directions were clear and it explained that there would be surprises. Each team was told to carry a PVC pipe 1-foot long and three-quarters of an inch in diameter, a roll of duct tape, and 10 round toothpicks — none of which were used. We had to purchase a red yoyo. As we pulled into the general store, a team riding out shouted, “Second floor.” Supermarket

•

Sweepstakes frantic, we scoured the shelves with the determination of a last minute Christmas eve shopper. We threw down a dollar bill and dashed out the door. A man at the door told us that we had to do the Slip ‘N Slide for the final Scavenger Hunt Delta House initiation. I thought we had already done a full day of slide and slide, so what was one tarp and a sprinkler? We completed the job. All we had to do was ride to the finish or get lost. We got lost. Our 8-hour required time was more than 9 hours. We were Norman, the guy out picking wild berries along Golden Pond. I saw a sign Mount Etna — 3 miles. If it was the Indiana berg, population 94, we were lost. If it was the volcano on Sicily, we were really lost. We had violated the Vector slogan. Know where you’re going. But by finishing one hour after everyone else, maybe that means we had more endurance, after all the word travel comes from the French word travailler which means to toil or labor. Not all that wander are lost. PAUL BECKWITH, Angola,

Fate of grading system uncertain INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â€” A school grading system designed to hold Indiana schools accountable faced an uncertain future Thursday after the stateâ€™s former schools chief resigned as Floridaâ€™s education commissioner amid revelations his staff changed a grade for a top Republic donorâ€™s charter school. AFT Indiana, an affiliate of the American Federation of Teachers, called for an immediate suspension of the grading system, saying former Superintendent Tony Bennettâ€™s â€œunethical and deplorableâ€?

actions made a suspension necessary. School superintendents around the state said they donâ€™t want an accountability system â€œconnected to corruption and manipulation.â€? Gary Superintendent Cheryl L. Pruitt demanded the state overturn its takeover of Roosevelt Career and Technical Academy, saying the grading system that led to the takeover was tainted. â€œBennettâ€™s resignation should confirm that Indianaâ€™s flawed, and now manipulated, A-F grading system is evidence enough

There were about 25 people, mainly family and friends of the Kelleys, who attended Huqâ€™s arraignment before Magistrate Randy Coffey. Some shed tears as they left the Steuben County Courthouse. â€œIt brings a lot of emotions back up. Itâ€™s very difficult for us. Itâ€™s nice to have a lot of small town support,â€? Shannon Kelley said. The case that received national attention on two television shows is now heading toward a possible trial in Steuben Superior Court. An initial trial date of Dec. 9 was set Thursday. â€œItâ€™s been a long time. All

Coffey had served as review of the grading system Tuesday. Republican Huqâ€™s counsel as a private attorney in the 1988 theft Gov.

Scott, at an appearance in South Florida, said he had not fired Bennett or demanded his resignation. â€œHe let me know that he was going to resign. It was his decision,â€? Scott said in Delray Beach. â€œTony did a good job here. â€Ś Weâ€™re doing well in education.â€? Scott refused to answer questions about the accusations against Bennett in Indiana. Bennett is the third education commissioner to leave office since Scott became governor in January 2011. Bush, in a statement, praised Bennett for the work he had done in Indiana. â€œTony started every day with the focus of creating a system that would equip kids to achieve their God-given potential,â€? he said. The Florida State Board of Education will hold an emergency meeting Friday. Board members are expected to name Pam Stewart as an interim commissioner. Stewart, who is currently

chancellor for the division of public schools, served as interim commissioner before Bennett was hired. Stewart would take the helm at a critical time. Bennett was poised to decide whether Florida should remain with a national consortium or develop its own set of tests for new common core standards that are scheduled to take effect. Floridaâ€™s Republican legislative leaders want the state to develop its own assessments. Bennettâ€™s decision to resign came even though he had gotten support from board members after the initial reports from Indiana came out. â€œI regret that Commissioner Bennett feels he must resign, but I respect his decision,â€? said John Padget, a state board member from Key West. â€œHe has spent countless hours focused on whatâ€™s best for Floridaâ€™s children, and Iâ€™ll miss him.â€? Indiana uses A-F grades to determine which schools get taken over by the state and whether students seeking state-funded vouchers to

Smith has remained relatively quiet about the case, deferring most comments to the Steuben County Prosecutorâ€™s Office. â€œIâ€™m just hoping we can continue to do a good job on this case and provide good information to the prosecutorâ€™s office,â€? Smith said. â€œThere was a lot of work done on this by the guys who came before me. Now thereâ€™s a lot of work to be done to make sure make sure we can get as many witnesses around as possible.â€?

HUQ: Time that has lapsed could pose problems

RESIGNS: Board members had supported Bennett FROM PAGE A1

you can do is hope for the best. Itâ€™s like a flower thatâ€™s finally going to bloom,â€? Vern Kelley said. Kelley tried to get that flower to grow for years following the death of his son. Kelley spent some 10 years following Toddâ€™s death searching for Huq, who had fled to Bangladesh, the home country of his parents. Kelley had hired private investigators and worked with police to no avail. Then along came Indiana State Police Detective Kevin Smith, who tracked down Huq some five years ago. â€œThatâ€™s the man who deserves all the credit,â€? Kelley said prior to

Authorities said Kelleyâ€™s girlfriend, who had previously dated Huq, found his body. Huq, who was 22 at the time, was charged with murder two weeks after Kelleyâ€™s death. At the time, Huq already was accused of threatening to kill anyone who dated his former girlfriend. After the killing, Huq eventually fled the country. He had been living in Bangladesh, the home country of his parents, under the assumed name of Asif ul Huq. Because of the time that has elapsed over the years, both Musser and Wagoner say that could pose issues. â€œAnytime that you have a case for years and years itâ€™s going to pose difficulties,â€? Musser said. Wagoner said that could work in the favor of the defense. â€œItâ€™s too early to determine,â€? she said. â€œWeâ€™ll just have to see.â€? Two investigators with the Indiana State Police who worked the case, Miles Stacey and Frank Jagoda, have died. The lead investigator for Steuben County, then-Deputy Mike

McClelland, is a retired sheriff, still lives in Angola and is serving as a city councilman. Another ISP investigator who worked the case, Mark Carunchia, is a supervisor of detectives with the ISP. Indiana State Police Detective Kevin Smith tracked down Huq about five years ago through a variety of sources. Huq was found in Bangladesh, but the United States doesnâ€™t have an extradition treaty with that country, so efforts to have him returned to the U.S. fell on deaf ears. In either late 2010 or early 2011 it was learned Huq would be traveling to India for a teaching engagement and he was arrested on a provisional arrest request from federal authorities as he deplaned in New Delhi. Since his February 2011 arrest, Huq was held in the Tihar Prison system pending extradition. Huq had fought extradition proceedings while in custody. That and other technicalities in dealing with a foreign governmentâ€™s legal system, Steuben County Sheriff Tim Troyer said, had delayed Huqâ€™s extradition.

ADVISER: Extended bull market coming, Hefty says â€œAnybody thatâ€™s a safe investor â€Śthey all lost money this year,â€? he said. â€œWe are ending about a 35-year bull market in bondsâ€? and expecting an extended bear market, he added. To guide clients, Heftyâ€™s firm has produced its first white-paper report, titled â€œWhere are bonds headed from here?â€? â€œWe feel itâ€™s critical today

that people understand whatâ€™s potentially about to happen in the bond market â€? he said. The report predicts bonds will show â€œhigh volatility coupled with flat to negative returns for an extended period of time.â€? â€œFixed income is not the safety net that it has been,â€? Hefty said. â€œWeâ€™re not advocating to get out of bonds. Weâ€™re just advocating to be smart about it.â€?

Charles’ doubledouble leads Sun past Fever, 70-64 UNCASVILLE, Conn. (AP) — Tina Charles had 22 points and 12 rebounds as the Connecticut Sun rallied from 16 points down and then held on to beat the Indiana Fever 70-64 on Thursday night. Allison Hightower and Mistie Bass each scored 12 points and Tan White added 10 for last-place Connecticut (5-12). Shavonte Zellous had 20 points and Jessica Breland added 17 points and seven rebounds for Indiana (8-10). The Fever had only eight players in uniform, with All-Star Tamika Catchings (personal reasons) among those missing.

Park, seeking 4th straight major, opens with 69 ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — Park Park ran off six birdies in 10 holes to race to the top of the leaderboard on Thursday in the British Women’s Open, only to stumble coming back in for a 3-under 69 that left her three shots out of the lead. Morgan Pressel, one spot out of making the Solheim Cup team this week, caught a break with the weather in the afternoon and made seven birdies in a round of 66 to share the lead with Camilla Lennarth. They were one shot ahead of a large group that included Stacy Lewis, the former No. 1 player in women’s golf. Also at 67 was 2012 U.S. Women’s Open champion Na Yeon Choi. Paula Creamer, Lizette Salas and Catriona Matthew were among those at 68.

Sale, White Sox roughed up again CLEVELAND (AP) — Chris Sale is an All-Star and the undisputed ace of the Chicago White Sox. When he faces the Cleveland Indians, however, the left-hander has had little success. The Indians rocked Sale for the third time this season, ringing up five runs on 10 hits in five innings in a 6-1 victory Thursday. Ryan Raburn belted two homers and drove in four runs for Cleveland, which completed a four-game sweep. The White Sox have lost seven straight and 13 of 16, dropping 26 games below .500 for the first time since Sept. 24, 1980. “I’m not going to sit here and make excuses,” said Sale, whose 2.92 ERA is the seventh lowest in the American League. “I got my butt kicked today. I didn’t feel as good as I usually do, but I’m a professional and I have to find a way to fight through it. They’ve really had my number, though.” Sale (6-11) fell to 0-3 with an

8.31 ERA in three starts against the Indians in 2013. He struck out six and didn’t issue a walk, but gave up Raburn’s two-run homer in the third inning and his RBI single in the fifth. Indians manager Terry Francona hesitated to offer a reason for his team’s dominance of Sale. “When you think you have the answer, you probably don’t,” said Francona, whose club extended its season-long winning streak to eight games. “We have done a really good job against him. I think we match up pretty well because we can send up pretty good right-handed hitters because he’s so tough on lefties.” Alejandro De Aza accounted for Chicago’s lone run with a homer in the sixth. It was his 13th of the season and spoiled the shutout bid of Indians right-hander Justin Masterson (13-7). Masterson went 6 2-3 innings, allowing one run on five hits while striking out seven.

Simpson makes most of his 1st Bridgestone round AKRON, Ohio (AP) — So much for course knowledge. Webb Simpson, playing his first competitive round at Firestone Country Club, shot a 6-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead in the Bridgestone Invitational. It all came down to trust. “Well, I knew it all through my caddie (Paul Tesori), who’s been here so many years,” Simpson said. “I just kind of had to listen to him.” Tesori has caddied for years on tour, for Vijay Singh and Jerry Kelly, in addition to being a pro himself. “It’s hard for us players to listen to our caddies, but he basically showed me where to go yesterday and told me where to hit it, where the lines were, what clubs to hit,” said Simpson, the 2012 U.S. Open champion. “I didn’t feel like it was my first time because he has so much experience here.” Seven-time Bridgestone winner Tiger Woods did not have to rely so much on the man on his bag, Joe LaCava, while shooting a 66. Woods has 11 top-10 finishes in his 13 starts at the course, so he clearly knows where to go. Still, he needed his counsel from time to time. “I hit a lot of good shots. I had a really good feel for the distance today, and Joey and I really read the wind right today,” Woods said

after his best opening round at the course since another 66 spurred him to a one-shot victory in 2005. “We changed a lot of shots out there, and we both had a really good handle on what we were doing feel-wise with the wind.” Henrik Stenson was alone in second with a 65. Defending champion Keegan Bradley, Ryan Moore and Chris Wood, another first-time entrant, matched Woods at 66. Simpson had six birdies in an eight-hole span. There was only one glitch. “I wish I didn’t bogey the last hole,” he said after missing the green on the par 4 and failing to get up and down. “It’s one area I’ve got to get better at. When I’m between clubs, hitting more club and swinging easy is where I’ve been struggling. “You know, there’s always something to work on.” Simpson hasn’t won this season. He called his year “encouraging and frustrating.” “I feel like I’ve let a couple of tournaments go that maybe I should have closed out,” he said. Stenson started out birdie, eagle — hitting his second shot 243 yards on the par-5 hole to inside 4 feet. He slowed down from there, parring every hole except for birdies at the 11th and 12th holes. He had more problems with his outfit than the course. He was breaking in a new pair of shoes

and felt a blister coming on at the turn, so had to switch to an older pair that didn’t necessarily fit with his ensemble. “They might not match the outfit perfectly, but it felt like I had socks on compared to the other ones,” he said, grinning.

NEW YORK (AP) — Looming playoffs could force an end to negotiations in baseball’s latest drug scandal as pressure builds to impose penalties so stars can still make the postseason. Monday appears to be the deadline for Alex Rodriguez and 13 others to accept suspensions for their ties to the Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic. While A-Rod is expected to get a lengthy ban, a penalty starting that day would allow Texas All-Star outfielder Nelson Cruz to return for October. Major League Baseball is prepared to issue two simultaneous announcements no later than Monday, a person familiar with the process told The Associated Press on Thursday. One would list players who accept suspensions; the other would name those disciplined without deals, but who could challenge penalties before an arbitrator. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no statements were authorized. Most players face 50-game suspensions for their links to the now-closed Florida clinic, which has been accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. But baseball is threatening to kick Rodriguez out for life unless the three-time AL MVP agrees to a long ban, perhaps around 200 games. Baseball’s highest-paid player with a $28 million salary, Rodriguez played in a simulated game and saw 31 pitches over six at-bats, played third and ran bases. The Yankees expect A-Rod to be accused of recruiting other athletes for the clinic, attempting to obstruct MLB’s investigation, and not being truthful with MLB in the past. Baseball has considered suspending him for violations of its labor contract and drug agreement, which would cause him to start serving his penalty before the case would go to arbitration. Sidelined following hip surgery in January and then a strained quadriceps, the 38-year-old third baseman hopes to return to the Yankees in a few days. He is to play Friday and Saturday at Double-A Trenton, putting himself in position to rejoin New York for Monday’s series opener at the Chicago White Sox if he’s not banned. Barring a rainout this weekend, Cruz’s Rangers would have exactly 50 games remaining before they play at the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night. If he files a grievance, as a first offender, the penalty would be delayed until after a decision by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz. SEE BASEBALL, PAGE B2

Royals win 9th straight, beat Twins MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — James Shields watched Lorenzo Cain race back to the wall in left-center field, leap in the air and snatch Trevor Plouffe’s drive away just before it landed in the bullpen. The Kansas City right-hander thrust his arms in the air, Royals relievers erupted in jubilation and Cain bounded back toward the dugout with no worries about a groin injury that had kept him on the bench earlier this week. It’s been a long, long time since the Royals were winning like this, and they’re enjoying every minute of it. The Royals won their ninth straight game, stretching their longest winning streak in more than a decade by beating Minnesota 7-2 Thursday behind Billy Butler’s hitting and Cain’s highlight reel catch in center field.

Angola set to start fall season ANGOLA — Angola High School will start its fall sports season with the team’s first practices on Aug. 5 except for girls golf. The first girls golf practice for coach Joan Sanborn will be on Friday at 9 a.m. at the Golf Parque Driving Range, 1430 W. 200 N. All athletes must have a current completed physical form on file in the athletic office before they can practice. Those forms are available in the AHS main office. Parents of fall athletes are strongly encouraged to attend the fall parent athletic information night on Aug. 6 at 6 p.m. in the AHS auditorium. The other fall sports begin with practices on Aug. 5. The first football practice will start at 7 a.m. Athletes who did not attend the summer football camps

The Royals last won nine straight when they opened the 2003 season at 9-0. The last time Kansas City won more in a row was a 10-game string in 1994, STATS said. After completing the three-game sweep of the Twins, they have opened a road trip 6-0 for the first time since 1980, when they went to the World Series. “We’ve got great energy, youthful energy on our club,” Royals manager Ned Yost said, sitting in his office just a few feet away from a raucous clubhouse celebration. “Our guys, they love winning. They get into it.” Butler had two hits and drove in two runs. Justin Maxwell had a hit and an RBI a day after being acquired in a trade with Houston. Shields (6-7) gave up two runs on five hits and five walks in six innings for

The first practice for boys and girls cross country on Aug. 5 will start at 7 a.m. at the AHS student parking lot. Paul Beckwith returns as head coach. The first boys tennis practice will begin at 8 a.m. on the courts next to Angola Middle School. The head coach is Scott Hottell. Volleyball’s first practice will be on the same time on the same day at 8 a.m. on Aug. 5 inside the school’s gymnasium. The varsity head coach is Trisha Perschke. For girls soccer, new coach Jennifer Sharkey will hold a meeting for interested girls and their parents on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. on Angola’s practice soccer field. The first practice will start at 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 5. For boys soccer, a head varsity coach will be hired shortly. Boys interested

the Royals, who swept the three-game series and are showing potential to be a factor late in the season. Scott Diamond (5-10) gave up seven runs and nine hits in five innings. Justin Morneau homered and doubled, but the Twins couldn’t take advantage of a sluggish start from Shields. Shields needed 116 pitches to get through six innings. But against a Twins offense that doesn’t hit for power, doesn’t hit with runners in scoring position and doesn’t steal bases, he was never really in trouble. Plouffe misplayed a potential double-play ball at third base to load the bases in the second inning, and Mike Moustakas and Maxwell drove runs in to get the Royals on the board. Eric Hosmer added a sacrifice fly in the third inning for a 3-0 lead. Morneau, who hit .175 with four homers and five

RBIs in all of July, went deep to straightaway center field to make it 3-2 in the third. Shields was laboring in the fifth and the Royals were clinging to a 5-2 lead when Plouffe sent a sky-high fly ball toward the bullpen in left-center field. After a long run, Cain leaped at the wall and snatched the ball just before it was about to go over the fence, taking away what would have been a two-run homer. “He’s been doing that all season long,” Shields said. “You’ve got to tip your cap to Lorenzo. He was off the last couple days. To come back and do that is phenomenal.” Cain exchanged a high-five with Miguel Tejada and shouted “Let’s go!” as he ran back to the dugout, and Butler followed with a two-run single in the top of the sixth for some breathing room.

But the lengthy legal process likely would risk his eligibility for the playoffs and the start of next season. Cruz said Thursday he hadn’t made any decision about a possible appeal. Asked whether he was told specifically what penalty could be forthcoming, Cruz responded, “No, I cannot tell you. Sorry.” Detroit shortstop Jhonny Peralta is the other targeted All-Star on a pennant contender, and the Tigers

would have 53 games left before playing at Cleveland on Monday. Another All-Star shortstop, San Diego’s Everth Cabrera, could serve all of a 50-game suspension this year if he begins with the Padres’ game against Baltimore on Tuesday. Others facing discipline include injured Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli and Seattle catcher Jesus Montero, who is in the minor leagues with Triple-A Tacoma.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Red Wings plan ceremony to retire Lidstrom’s No. 5 jersey DETROIT (AP) — Former Detroit Red Wings star Nicklas Lidstrom will have his No. 5 retired in a ceremony next season. The Red Wings announced Thursday that Lidstrom will be honored before a March 6 game against the Colorado Avalanche. Lidstrom retired last year after a career in which he won four Stanley Cups with Detroit. Lidstrom was a seven-time winner of the Norris Trophy, which goes to the league’s best defenseman. He was named captain of the Red Wings before the 2006-07 season, and when Detroit beat Pittsburgh in the 2008 finals, he became the first European-born captain to lead his team to a Stanley Cup.

Rangers’ Cruz unsure if he would appeal suspension ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Texas Rangers slugger Nelson Cruz said Thursday he hadn’t decided whether to appeal if he is suspended as a result of Major League Baseball’s latest drug investigation. When asked before a game against Arizona if he had been told specifically what penalty could be forthcoming, Cruz responded, “No, I can not tell you, sorry.” The All-Star right fielder, whose 25 home runs and 73 RBIs lead the Rangers, was in the lineup batting sixth against Arizona. “I’ve heard a lot of stuff,” Cruz said, though he wasn’t specific about what and from whom before saying he couldn’t comment further on that. He sighed when asked if there was any indication when he might know something, then said, “It’s tough. Sorry.” Cruz is among 14 players targeted for discipline because of their relationship to Biogenesis of America, a closed Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. He appears to be facing a 50-game suspension as a first offender under baseball’s drug program. Discipline could be announced by Monday.

Ripken offers reward in quest to find his mother’s kidnapper BALTIMORE (AP) — Cal Ripken Jr. announced a $100,000 reward Thursday for information that helps lead to the capture and conviction of the person who abducted his mother a year ago. Vi Ripken was taken from her Aberdeen home at gunpoint on July 24, 2012, and returned unharmed 24 hours later. The former Oriole said he hoped the reward would re-energize his mother’s unsolved case. In the crime’s immediate aftermath, the Aberdeen Police Department released a sketch, photographs and a surveillance video that were believed to show the potential suspect. But tips resulting from those have failed to bring to an arrest, prompting the Hall of Famer to announce the reward at a press conference just steps from his old home ballpark, Oriole Park at Camden Yards. “I think in some ways maybe this should’ve happened earlier,” Ripken said of the reward offered on behalf of his company, Ripken Baseball, and the Ripken family. “I think in the beginning … we were all hopeful that (an arrest) would happen pretty quickly and we were all encouraged. But, you know, it is what it is.” Aberdeen Police spokesman Lt. Fred Budnick said at the briefing at the Sports Legends Museum that the department has no new videos or photographs to help identify the suspect. He added that the department has received dozens of new tips since issuing a press release last week to mark the one-year anniversary of the crime, but none have panned out.

NASCAR, Fox extend TV deal CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR completed its $8.2 billion television package Thursday by adding two years to its deal with Fox Sports and setting a schedule that gives the network the first 16 Sprint Cup races beginning in 2015. Fox Sports last year signed a deal for the first 13 Cup races beginning with the 2015 season and the latest deal gives the network three more Cup races to go with the first 14 Nationwide Series races. Fox Sports also extended the contract it had signed last year by two years, so it now runs through 2024 and is the same length as the deal NBC Sports signed last week. “Fox Sports has been an outstanding partner for NASCAR and we could not be more pleased with the additional commitment they are making to our sport and the fans,” NASCAR Chairman Brian France said. “Fox Sports has delivered for our fans a number of innovations that have changed how our sport is presented, and our entire industry has now come to expect excellence from NASCAR on Fox. We believe this new agreement underscores our shared commitment to the fans over the next decade.” NBC Sports paid $4.4 billion for its rights, which begin in 2015, and the Fox Sports deal is now worth $3.8 billion with Thursday’s additions. It puts NASCAR at $820 million a year for the length of the 10-year contracts. Fox Sports will air nine Cup races on its network.

Briefs • Kerry: Drone strikes in Pakistan could end; talks slated ISLAMABAD (AP) — The United States and Pakistan agreed Thursday to restart high-level talks on security and other issues, yet the two sides still deeply mistrust each other in a relationship frayed by disputes over issues like U.S. drone attacks, which U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said could end soon. Kerry’s remarks to Pakistan TV about a possible end to the CIA-led program of drone strikes was the first time an administration official has said the Obama administration wants to end the program. Kerry offered no timetable, and spokeswomen assured reporters he was merely reflecting President Barack Obama’s statements in a speech earlier this year. Kerry announced the resumption of talks during his first visit to Pakistan as secretary of state. He said the U.S. does not want bilateral relations defined solely by hot-button security issues like counterterrorism and the war in Afghanistan.

Employers aren’t cutting, adding staffers WASHINGTON (AP) — Companies have all but stopped laying off workers. They just aren’t hiring many. When the government issues the July employment report Friday, it will likely show another solid month of job growth. But the job gain can be misleading because it’s a net figure: The number of people hired minus the number who lose or quit jobs. When employers are cutting few workers, as they are now, it doesn’t take many hires to create a high net gain. Last week, the number of Americans applying for

unemployment benefits fell 19,000 to 326,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. That was the fewest since January 2008. Those applications reflect layoffs. And layoffs have averaged 1.65 million a month this year through May, even fewer than the 1.77 million average in the pre-recession year of 2006. So few people are losing their jobs that it’s easy to forget that the job market isn’t yet healthy. The unemployment rate remains a still-high 7.6 percent — far more than the 5 percent to 6 percent associated with a normal economy. According to a survey

Weapons depot blast in Syria kills 40 DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Rebels sent a wave of rockets slamming into regime strongholds in the central city of Homs on Thursday, triggering a succession of massive explosions in a weapons depot that killed at least 40 people and wounded dozens, an opposition group and residents said. The attack — one of the most potent against pro-government districts in the area — overshadowed a rare trip by President Bashar Assad to a former opposition bastion outside the capital, Damascus, during which he defiantly vowed in front of troops to defeat the rebels fighting to topple him. The huge explosion in the Homs district of Wadi Dahab delivered a jolt to Assad’s regime, which for weeks has been boasting of achievements against the rebels in the strategic Homs region and the suburbs of Damascus. “The achievements on the ground speak for themselves,” Assad told soldiers in Daraya, a few miles south of the capital.

of economists by FactSet, the economy likely added 183,000 jobs in July. Yet the picture isn’t as bright as that net gain might suggest. Consider why a net gain can be deceiving: Suppose a company cut 40 workers and hired 50. Net gain: 10 jobs. But say it instead cut only 10 and added 30. It would have hired fewer workers. Yet it would have created twice the net job gain — 20. Similarly, the Labor Department’s monthly net job gain can look healthy despite only modest hiring. As layoffs have steadily declined, the economy has been generating a 202,000

net jobs a month this year, up from an average 183,000 in 2012. “The layoff side of the employment equation remains stable,” Jill Brown, an economist at Credit Suisse, wrote in a note to clients Thursday. The hiring side, by contrast, has yet to accelerate. Employers have hired an average of 4.36 million people a month through May this year, the government says. That’s 18 percent below the 2006 average of 5.32 million hires a month. Facing tax increases, federal spending cuts and weak demand overseas, companies have been

reluctant to hire aggressively. And many have discovered since the Great Recession that they can manage with fewer staffers than before, thanks in part to machines and software that can do clerical and administrative tasks better and more cheaply than humans can. Start-up companies, which produce a majority of new jobs, have become stingier about hiring. The average new business employed just 4.7 workers when it opened shop in 2011, down from 7.6 in the 1990s, according to a Labor Department study last year that attributed the drop to technology.

Snowden gets temporary asylum U.S. ‘extremely disappointed’

Morsi supporters defy police warnings to disperse CAIRO (AP) — The military-backed government offered protection Thursday to supporters of deposed President Mohammed Morsi who end their two sit-ins — widely seen as a first step toward dispersing the vigils on opposite sides of Cairo. But the protesters responded defiantly: “Over our dead bodies!” The standoff underscored the ongoing political crisis since the armed forces toppled Egypt’s first democratically elected leader on July 3: thousands in the streets demanding Morsi’s reinstatement, a government unable to exert its authority, and recurrent violence that has killed more than 260 people. Rights groups, activists and politicians from rival camps, fearful of more bloodshed, tried to ward off any use of force, including a suggestion of putting a human chain around the protest sites.

Margaret Miles, right, celebrates with wife Cathy ten Broeke, left, after they were married at the Minneapolis Freedom to Marry Celebration, Thursday at the Minneapolis City Hall.

Gay couples start getting hitched in 2 more states PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — In public celebrations and intimate ceremonies, gay couples exchanged vows Thursday in Minnesota and Rhode Island as the number of places where same-sex couples can wed grew to more than a quarter of U.S. states. Dozens of gay couples began getting hitched at the stroke of midnight in Minnesota, the largest Midwestern state where it is now legal to do so. In Rhode Island, the last New England state to allow same-sex marriage, weddings began at 8:30 a.m., when municipal offices opened. Zachary Marcus and Gary McDowell were married Thursday afternoon at Providence City Hall by Mayor Angel Taveras. McDowell, 28, a Harvard Medical School researcher, was born in Northern Ireland. The recent Supreme Court decision striking down a law denying federal benefits to married gay couples means he can petition for permanent residency. “It was important for us that it be the first day,” said Marcus, 25, a Brown University medical student. “It’s a personal day for us, and it’s also a great political victory.” As of Thursday, same-sex couples can marry in 13 states and in Washington, D.C. The national gay rights group Freedom to Marry estimates that 30 percent of the U.S. population now lives in places where gay marriage is legal. In Minneapolis, an estimated 1,000 people packed into City Hall at midnight to celebrate 46 same-sex weddings officiated by Mayor R.T. Rybak. Several Hennepin County judges performed 21 more

in the City Council’s chambers. “I didn’t expect to cry quite that hard,” said a beaming Cathy ten Broeke, who with Margaret Miles was the first gay couple to wed at City Hall. “We do,” the couple and their 5-year-old son, Louie, said to cheers as they promised to be a family. Gov. Mark Dayton had proclaimed Aug. 1 to be “Freedom to Marry Day” in Minnesota. Celebrations in Rhode Island were more muted, which advocates said was probably because so many nearby states already allow same-sex marriage. Democratic Gov. Lincoln Chafee, who became one of the earliest prominent national supporters of legalizing gay marriage when he was a Republican U.S. senator, planned to attend a state lawmaker’s wedding later in the day. House Speaker Gordon Fox, who is gay, planned to officiate. U.S. Rep. David Cicilline, one of the few openly gay members of Congress, stayed in Washington. A Washington, D.C.-based group opposed to gay marriage, Alliance Defending Freedom, advised municipal clerks they could ask a colleague to issue licenses to same-sex couples if they were opposed. There were no reports of that happening in either state. In some communities, excited clerks posed for photos with couples. Newport, R.I., City Clerk Kathleen Silvia gave kisses to Federico Santi and John Gacher, who have been together for 41 years and converted their civil union to a marriage Thursday morning. She called it “a day of smooching.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — A highly anticipated fall summit between President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin could become a casualty of Moscow’s defiant decision to grant temporary asylum to National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, the White House signaled Thursday after weeks of pressuring and pleading for his return to face prosecution. Russia’s decision “is not a positive development,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said. “We are extremely disappointed that the Russian government would take this step despite our very clear and lawful requests in public and in private to have Mr. Snowden expelled to the United States to face the charges against him,” Carney said. Obama is scheduled to go to Russia in September for the Group of 20 economic summit in St. Petersburg and also stop in Moscow for one-on-one talks Putin. The White House alternately has

Critics confront Obama WASHINGTON (AP) — Struggling to salvage a massive surveillance program, President Barack Obama was confronted by congressional critics of the National Security Agency’s collection of Americans’ telephone records Thursday as snowballing concerns made new limitations on the intelligence effort appear increasingly likely. Obama invited lawmakers on both sides of the issue to an Oval Office meeting designed to stem the bleeding of public support and show Obama was serious about engaging. Among the participants were the demanded that Russia return Snowden while also saying it doesn’t want his case to negatively impact relations with Moscow. Asked whether Obama would still travel to Moscow, Carney said pointedly, “We are evaluating the utility of a summit.” There was a strong

NSA’s most vigorous congressional supporters — the top Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate intelligence panels — alongside its most stern critics, including Democratic Sens. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Mark Udall of Colorado. The lawmakers departed the rainy White House grounds without speaking to reporters. But in interviews later, they said there was a consensus that the surveillance efforts are suffering from perception problems that have undercut trust among the American people. reaction from some lawmakers. “Russia’s action today is a disgrace and a deliberate effort to embarrass the United States. It is a slap in the face of all Americans,” Republican Sens. John McCain of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said in a joint statement.

Summer fun at the beach can turn tragic DEAR ABBY: I have been a lifeguard for more than 30 years, and I continually see parents and other adults putting children in harm’s way. Would you please remind your readers that they need to be vigilant around water? A drowning is nothing like they show in the movies. As you take your family to your favorite swimming hole this summer, please be careful. If your child isn’t a competent swimmer, NEVER allow him or her to go beyond arm’s reach. Never exceed the ratio of two nonswimmers to one adult. If possible, stay where the child can touch the bottom. If your children can swim and you allow them to go into the pool, lake, ocean without you — ALWAYS WATCH THEM! Yes, lifeguards are observing the swimmers — but no one on this planet will watch your

Depression, hypothyroidism may be linked affects everything from muscles, bones and skin, to the digestive tract, heart and brain. The thyroid, in turn, is regulated by the pituitary gland. This pea-sized gland hangs down from the bottom part of the brain. When blood levels of thyroid hormones fall, ASK the pituitary DOCTOR K. gland sends signals to the thyroid, it to Dr. Anthony telling get to work. response, Komaroff In the thyroid produces two hormones, T3 and T4. If you have hypothyroidism, however, your thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. Blood levels of T3 and T4 remain low.

When thyroid hormone levels are low, organs and internal systems slow down, creating a wide range of symptoms. Many of these symptoms — depressed mood, fatigue, weight gain, reduced sexual desire and trouble concentrating — are also symptoms of depression. Not surprisingly, hypothyroidism is often misdiagnosed as depression. Here’s an example: My wife and I are friends with a couple who about 20 years ago started to have marital troubles. She was moody. Her husband thought she was depressed, and her doctor agreed. They separated. One winter evening she slipped on the ice and broke her ankle. In the emergency room, the orthopedic surgeon took one look at her and asked, “Has your doctor ever said you have an underactive thyroid?” He did the test, confirmed his suspicions, and she got the treatment she needed.

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: For years I took antidepressants, but they didn’t really help my depression. Then a new doctor diagnosed me with hypothyroidism. Once I started taking thyroid medication, the depression lifted. What’s the connection? DEAR READER: Hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid gland, is one cause of depression. Depression is a condition caused by chemical changes in the brain. Surely life experiences can affect those chemical changes, making them worse or better. But at its root, depression involves brain chemistry. The chemistry of the brain is also influenced by the chemistry of the blood, since blood circulates throughout the brain. The thyroid gland, a small, butterfly-shaped structure that sits low in the neck, secretes hormones that regulate the body’s energy. In this way, the thyroid indirectly

couple reunited. Other symptoms are more typical of either depression or hypothyroidism and can help tell the two conditions apart. Hypothyroidism can be confirmed or ruled out with a blood test. Once diagnosed, it is usually treated with a thyroid hormone pill that restores thyroid hormone levels to normal. As in your case, depression usually subsides once you start taking this medication. Researchers aren’t entirely sure why there is a link between hypothyroidism and depression. Clearly the low thyroid hormone levels in the blood affect the chemistry in the brain that leads to depression. In fact, doctors sometimes add thyroid medications to antidepressant treatment — even in patients who have normal thyroids. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.
