GOOD MORNING Differences are small between student loan bills WASHINGTON (AP) — The House is set to go along with a bipartisan Senate compromise that would link college students’ interest rates to the financial markets and offer borrowers lower rates this fall. The Senate bill hews closely to one the House already has passed, and leaders from both parties and in both chambers expect those differences won’t stand in the way of quick resolution, perhaps as early as Wednesday. House approval would send the measure to President Barack Obama, who has said he would sign it into law “right away.” But critics note that if the economy improves as expected, rates could climb higher. If the Republican-led House consents to the Senate’s tinkering with the House’s earlier proposal, and Obama signs the legislation before students start returning to campus, families would see better deals on some federal loans this year than they did in 2012. Undergraduates could borrow at rates as low as 3.4 percent for subsidized Stafford loans and 6.8 percent on unsubsidized Stafford loans last year, while graduate students and parents borrowed at 7.9 percent last year. Those 3.4 percent rates doubled on July 1 because Congress did not act.

Ex-Congresswoman Boggs dies at 97 WASHINGTON (AP) — Lindy Boggs, a Democratic Party leader from Louisiana, died July 27 at her home in Chevy Chase. She was 97. Boggs’ charm and political acumen helped her husband, Hale Boggs, rise to U.S. House majority leader, and who launched her own congressional and diplomatic career after his disappearance in an airplane crash, The death was confirmed by a daughter, broadcast journalist Cokie Roberts, who said the cause of death was not immediately known.

Lake Life 102 covers a lot of ground BY AMY OBERLIN amyo@kpcnews.net

ANGOLA — When the sound of boat motors dwindle this fall, there will be Lake Life 102. The local Purdue Cooperative Extension Service, the Steuben County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Steuben County Lakes Council will be offering the second annual workshop on the 101 lakes of Steuben County. The six-week session starts on Tuesday, Sept. 24, and continues through Tuesday, Oct. 29. Each session runs 6-8:30 p.m. and will provide a unique view of local aquatic resources. The cost is $50, which includes class materials and snacks. Those who

attended Lake Life 101 last year received a certificate at the end of the course with the option to attend this year’s sessions for free. Classes will be held in the Steuben Community Center, 317 S. Wayne St., Angola, in the multipurpose room. Reservations are available by calling the SWCD at 665-3211, ext. 3, Purdue Extension at 668-1000, ext. 1400 or the Lakes Council at 665-1730. “We picked our presentations this year by looking over last year’s evaluations from class participants and seeing what topics they are interested in and have questions about; then adding in our input about what types of questions and comments we’ve heard from the public in our

offices,” said Kayleen Hart of the Soil and Water Conservation District. At least 10 people from last year’s group plan to attend, said Hart. “The great thing about this class is that we are able to reach out to a group of people that we don’t normally get to work with. We are hoping this year’s class to be twice as large,” she said. “It’s a lot of fun, and the refreshments are great, too.” During the first session, Sept. 24, retired professor Pete Hippensteel will talk about Steuben County geography and Pokagon State Park’s interpretive naturalist Fred Wooley will discuss the park. The second session, Oct. 1,

KENDALLVILLE — Walk down into Steve Kramer’s basement, and you’ll see a sign that says “Man Cave.” There is the requisite big-screen TV and couch, and sports memorabilia on the walls. But Kramer’s sports collection is more than a show of support for his favorite teams — it’s a tribute to his father, Norm. Born in Tell City in southern Indiana in 1924, Norm Kramer excelled in basketball and baseball at that city’s high school before he headed off to serve in World War II. “His brothers were already in the war, and he wanted to join them,” Steve said. When the war ended, Norm signed a contract with baseball’s St. Louis Browns. He pitched for several minor-league teams, including the Durham (N.C.) Bulls

of “Bull Durham” fame, before arm injuries ended his career in 1951. With only 16 major-league teams at the time, many of the minor-league teams were comparable to today’s major-league teams, Steve said. “My dad always said that he was born 50 years too soon. The competition was a lot harder, and fewer players made the big leagues,” Steve said. In the off-seasons Norm had attended Butler University, playing basketball for the Bulldogs. Eventually he began a career in teaching and coaching both baseball and basketball. Norm was coaching baseball

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — An Indianapolis church mourned their youth pastor, his pregnant wife and a congregation member Sunday after the three died when their bus returning from a northern Michigan camp overturned a mile from home. Saturday’s accident devastated members of Colonial Hills Baptist Church, who had been anticipating a joyful homecoming with the 37 people aboard the bus. The crash killed youth pastor Chad Phelps; his pregnant piano-teacher wife, Courtney Phelps; and chaperone Tonya Weindorf, deacon Jeff Leffew said. The crash, which happened Saturday afternoon near Interstate 465, injured dozens. Seven teens remained hospitalized Sunday, including one in critical condition. Bus driver Dennis Maurer, a 68-year-old member of the congregation, told authorities that the brakes failed before the churchowned vehicle struck a raised concrete median and flipped on its side, Indianapolis metro police said. Chad Phelps, the son of the church’s senior pastor, and his wife were both in their mid-20s, Leffew said, and were expecting their second child next month. Chad Phelps had become youth pastor at Colonial Hills late last year, he said. ” … We’re going to have a long road, but God is good,” Leffew said Sunday during a news conferSEE INDY, PAGE A6

Mideast talks peace talks to resume Turmoil JERUSALEM (AP) — The U.S. on Sunday announced the resumption of Israeli-Palestinian talks following years of stalemate, after Israel’s Cabinet agreed to release 104 Palestinian prisoners convicted of deadly attacks. The return to direct contacts between the sides gave U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry his first concrete achievement after months of shuttle diplomacy. The U.S. said preliminary talks would begin today, but it remains unclear whether they will lead to a formal resumption of peace talks that broke down in 2008. Despite a return to the table, neither side appeared upbeat. Each has blamed the other for the lack of success in 20 years of negotiations interrupted by bouts of violence. Earlier Sunday, the Israeli

Cabinet voted 13-7, with two abstentions, to approve in principle the release of 104 Palestinian prisoners. The release is a key part of the Kerry-brokered deal to restart peace talks. The State Department said Kerry called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas after the Cabinet vote and invited them to send teams to Washington. State Department spokeswoman Jan Psaki said the teams would meet today and Tuesday to “develop a procedural plan for how the parties can proceed with the negotiations in the coming months.” Talks on a final peace deal are to last six to nine months. Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat and Abbas aide Mohammed

Shtayyeh will represent the Palestinians, and Justice Minister Tzipi Livni and adviser Yitzhak Molcho will attend for Israel. Netanyahu, seeking to overcome stiff opposition from ultra-nationalists, told his Cabinet that “resuming the political process at this time is important for Israel,” noting that any deal would be submitted to a national referendum. Erekat welcomed the vote on the prisoners as a “step toward peace,” one he said is long overdue. Negotiators made progress in previous rounds, and the outlines of a deal have emerged — a Palestinian state in most of the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, lands captured by Israel in 1967, with border adjustments to enable Israel to annex land with a majority of nearly 600,000 settlers.

Wildflowers of summer Playing with the add color to landscape The wildflowers of summer are out, the flowers that bloom when the days are long and hot, that bloom in weedy fields and along the sides of roads before they are mowed, out where there is no shade and sunshine beats down. Queen Anne’s lace spreads lacy white flower on the tops of a tall stalk. Chicory opens daisy-like blossoms of blue. Evening primrose displays flowers of yellow on club-like columns. Wild bergamot has floppy flowers of lavender, day-lily has large, spreading flowers of orange, and Canada thistle has small blossoms of purple. on OUTDOOR Low, the ground NOTES where it is not overshadowed by Neil Case taller plants, birdfoot trefoil spreads a mat of green leaves dotted with small, bright yellow flowers. Many people, perhaps most, pay no more attention to these flowers of the fields and roadsides than they do to the fields of corn and soybeans they speed past. If any of these flowers happen to grow in their lawns and get tall enough to be noticed before they are mowed with the grass, most people call them weeds and pull them, grub them out or spray them with a pesticide. We have our lawn mowed, and we pull wildflowers in our flower beds and call them weeds,

but we don’t use chemicals nor allow them to be used on our property. Lately, I’ve been pulling Canada thistles that grew in a dense patch at the edge of the area we have mowed. I started to cut them using a scythe, but that was hard, hot work, and I switched to pulling while sitting on a camp stool ,which is much easier than swinging a scythe. Even so, I limited my attack on the thistles to once a day, an hour at a time, and I finished just as the remaining plants were beginning to go to seed. In the house after one of my skirmishes with the thistles, I read about some of the wildflowers of summer. Canada thistle, I read, is not a native plant of Canada in spite of its name. It’s a native plant of Europe. It was introduced to Canada, accidentally I presume, though I didn’t read that it was accidental. But would a plant that is called cursed thistle in England be introduced to the U.S. on purpose? Once established in Canada, it spread west across Canada and south into the U.S. Queen Anne’s lace and chicory are also not native to the U.S. They were introduced deliberately. The roots of Queen Anne’s lace are carrot-like and edible, and the plant is also known as wild carrot. Brought to the U.S. from England, it was grown

in the gardens of some American pioneers. The root of chicory, which I learned to identify under the name corn flower, is also edible, or drinkable, and aromatic. It’s roots were not eaten whole, but were ground, roasted and used as a substitute for coffee. Birdfoot trefoil and day-lily are other non-native species. Widespread and common in the British Isles, birdfoot trefoil is known by many different names including bird’s-claw, devil’s-fingers and witch’s toenails. Day-lily is one of a number of lilies with large, orange blossoms. There is Canada lily, turk’s-cap lily, tiger lily, Michigan lily, Gray’s lily and wood lily. Tiger lily is introduced, but the others are native to the U.S. Evening primrose is a native species. The roots are edible and are described as wholesome, nutritious and tasty. They were also once considered to be of medicinal value and were used to treat eczema, asthma, migraines, inflammation, arthritis and alcoholism. There are some of the wildflowers of summer, the blossoms of weedy fields and roadsides. Some of them, the wildflowers that are the most common, the most conspicuous, with a bit of information that I gleaned from books.

Start-up grants drying up INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A widely praised Indiana program that issued grants to help promising startup companies develop their products has quietly gone dormant, raising concerns among business innovators that it could stifle technology development in the state. Indiana began offering the matching grants to companies that had won research awards from the federal Small Business Innovation Research program in 2003. It gave out more than $36 million through some 300 grants over about eight years, The Indianapolis Star reported. The state touted the program as a way to support the ideas coming out of Indiana’s universities and labs. Recipients said the matching grants were crucial to their survival because their use wasn’t restricted like the small business grants are. But the program appears to have gone dormant in the fall of 2011, shortly after the Indiana Economic Development Corp. handed over management of the 21 Fund from which the grants originated to Elevate Ventures, a private nonprofit. Since Elevate took over the fund, the state has significantly cut the amount of public money going to Hoosier startups. In 2010, the last full year of the state match, Indianabased companies won 88 federal grants, according to sbirsource.com. That dropped to 56 in 2011 and 44 in 2012.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — In the raging federal health care debate, numbers are turning out to be some of the most partisan tools available to Democrats, Republicans and everyone with a stake in the game. Indiana residents have gotten a rare look at the spinning of statistics and price tags that happens regularly in government as Gov. Mike Pence’s point man on federal health care estimated that residents would pay 72 percent more for health insurance through the insurance exchange being built. That, of course, is an incredible simplification of an incredibly complex topic, something Democratic supporters of President Barack Obama’s signature legislation pointed out shortly afterward and followed with some spin of their own. Add to an already-confusing mix of cutoffs, dependents, income brackets, co-pays and credits and both sides will find plenty to support whatever conclusion they like. The Pence administration, which has opposed the health care law while readying for its implementation over the next few months, found numbers that confirm its bias. “This new data regrettably confirms the negative impact of the Affordable Care Act on the insurance market in Indiana,” said Logan Harrison, deputy commissioner at the Indiana Department of Insurance in a statement announcing the assumed rate hike. “The Affordable Care Act requires many Hoosiers to purchase more comprehensive and more expensive health insurance than they may want or need. These rates call into question just how affordable health insurance will really be for many Hoosiers.” The state did not release the data on how it came up with this estimate, but The Washington Post reported this was likely the result of “squishing” together all the plans that would be available to Indiana residents, from the cheapest “bronze” plan to the most expensive “gold” option and coming up with one number. Indiana Democrats quickly fired back. “I think Hoosiers should be very leery of this report. These numbers simply don’t tell the whole story on how the implementation of the Affordable Care Act will affect Hoosiers,” said Sen. Jean Breaux, D-Indianapolis, in a statement. “The report leaves out any information on tax credits available to Hoosiers to put toward the cost of coverage, along with an inflated and flawed assumption on the average cost as a whole.” Get ready for more blurring of the lines as the long, drawn-out, political clash stretches through its fourth year. And not just from Republican opponents. As the opening of the insurance exchanges draws near, Obama and his health care team have taken to the stump with their own tales of insurance rates dropping. If Indiana is the Republican horror story, New York has become the Democratic fairy tale, with estimates from New York Democrats that insurance rates will drop by 53 percent. That has caused Republicans to cry foul. This wouldn’t be the first time price tags and numbers have been cherry-picked in the ongoing health care battle. The state’s actuary, Milliman, has produced regular reports with detailed estimates of how much expanding Medicaid would cost. There are breakdowns, tables, broad descriptions of the variables used and a range of expected costs to the state, from $2 billion and $2.6 billion over seven years.

Muncie residents proud of landmark mansion MUNCIE (AP) — Motorists sometes creep past Jeff McCoy’s house. From time to time, they ask whether they can see inside. Pedestrians regularly take photographs. It’s not the home of a movie star, though it has been compared to one. “It’s something I had to get used to,” says McCoy, the owner of the 1930s-era T.G. Wilkinson House at 3100 W. University Ave. Many years ago, when he was a psychology student at Ball State University, McCoy himself was one of those people who would stop and look at the rectangular, white-brick Art Modernestyle house. “When I discovered the house, I certainly wasn’t aware that it was a representation of the Art Deco style,” McCoy, now director of testing at Ball State, told The Star Press. “I was struck by how grand the house seemed and the fact that it just didn’t seem to ‘fit’ in the neighbor-

hood.” He tends to be attracted to older, unique homes. “The two-story glass entry was also very impressive, and I could only imagine at that time what the interior was like,” he recalled. “All these years later and in my opinion, the interior of the home doesn’t disappoint. The many original interior features compliment that grand feeling that I got when I first saw the exterior.” The house was put in a sheriff’s sale of mortgage-foreclosed property on Feb. 8, 2012, prompting the nonprofit Indiana Landmarks to name it to the organization’s 10 Most Endangered Historic Places in Indiana for 2012. It was vacant then. The handle was broken off the front door, which was not locked. Electricity was turned off. The roof leaked. Moisture was building up inside the concrete and brick structure. Paint was peeling off in sheets.

Built in the 1930s, the Wilkinson House still attracts a lot of attention in one of Muncie’s westside neighborhoods. It easily stands out because of its Art Moderne structure.

PNC Bank, which owned the mortgage, bought the note for $177,000 at the sheriff’s sale. The bank then put the house up for sale at an asking price of $93,000. McCoy bought it in May 2012. Why is it so special? Because Indiana has few examples of Art Deco

and Art Moderne buildings, though “most large cities have at least one building to represent these modern styles,” according to the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. Most were built between 1925 and 1940. Also known as Streamline Moderne, Art Moderne’s

characteristics include a horizontal shape, flat roof, white walls, porthole or circular windows and mirrored panels, all of which are features of the T.G. Wilkinson Home. The house is identified as one of the state’s most interesting old houses in “99 Historic Homes of Indiana: A Look Inside,” a coffee-table book published by Indiana Landmarks and Indiana University Press. “It looks like the set for a Ginger Rogers-Fred Astaire movie,” according to Indiana Landmarks. In 2008, when the owner at that time tried to sell the home at auction, auctioneer Mike Schott of Alexandria told The Star Press, “The first time I was there, I thought Marilyn Monroe would come down the stairway. If you closed your eyes and opened them when you got inside, you would think you were in Beverly Hills.” The Exposition des Arts Decoratifs of 1925 in Paris

set the trend for designs that would reflect the needs and aspirations of 20th-century society without relying on past styles, while retaining a decorative tendency, the DNR reports. Hence the name Art Deco. Art Moderne-style buildings were similar to Art Deco in appearance, but they were even more austere and functional and not as highly decorative. “The house is a fusion of art moderne with a constrained application of small decorative relief elements found to accentuate the windows of the house,” Deborah Middleton, an assistant professor of history, theory and design in Ball State’s college of architecture told The Star Press. “The long horizontal banding is the strongest element that evokes a streamlined art moderne fashion, which is accentuated by the curved facade that reaches to embrace the two columns forming the portico entrance to the house.”

County dealing with overdoses LAFAYETTE (AP) — An increase in the number of deaths from accidental drug overdoses has sparked concerns that substance abuse has reached a crisis level in Tippecanoe County. The Journal & Courier reports the number of accidental, drug-related deaths has risen each year since 2010. Currently, one or two people in the county are dying each week from accidental overdoses. “It’s not just younger people we’re seeing. It’s crossing all ages, all socioeconomic groups. Prescription medication and street drugs,” coroner Donna Avolt said. “We’re seeing this so much more than we should. . We are no longer a smaller community immune to big-city woes.” Avolt said many of the cases involve people who’ve combined street drugs with prescription medication to

intensify their high or those who suffer chronic medical conditions and take more of their prescribed medication than they should because their pain hasn’t lessened or they’ve forgotten about their previous dose. The increase has forced her to request an additional $30,000 from the Tippecanoe County Council to cover the costs of medical services such as toxicology analysis and autopsies. Both are required under Indiana law in cases of suspected overdoses. Lafayette police Lt. Brad Bishop, who oversees the Tippecanoe County Drug Task Force, said heroin is causing a lot of issues. He said the drug coming into the county is a more pure form than in years past and that people are combining it with “just about everything.” The drug first raised alarms in Tippecanoe County in February 2011, when

IU students and inmates taking classes together BLOOMINGTON (AP) — Wearing a Monroe County Jail-issued orange uniform, Steve’s burly frame overshadowed the lectern he stood behind. Poised with confidence, he read aloud a piece he was inspired to write in honor of the Indiana University instructor who brought 10 students into the jail twice a week for eight weeks this summer. He thanked Lindsey Campbell-Badger for metaphorically piling a speech class of 20 jail inmates and IU students into her used Prius with a cracked windshield. Steve thanked her for the ride: “It will be one I’ll remember for the rest of my life.” Communications and culture associate instructor Campbell-Badger’s public speaking students celebrated their accomplishments in completing the first collaborative class between IU students and county jail inmates Thursday afternoon in a multipurpose room at the Monroe County Jail. Established at Temple University in Philadelphia, the Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program brings college students and incarcerated men and women together to learn about issues behind jail or prison walls The HeraldTimes reported. Trained at a maximum security prison in Detroit, Campbell-Badger brought the Inside-Out program here — a class in this setting was a first for IU Bloomington’s campus and the Monroe County

Jail, and required organizational assistance from jail commander Bill Wilson and his staff, adjunct professor Victor Harnack, and board members and volunteers of New Leaf-New Life, among others. Campbell-Badger didn’t give any lectures to her “inside students,” the inmates, or “outside students,” her IU group. Rather, the students met in groups, small and large. Ground rules were clear. The IU students, a mix of men and women, signed semi-anonymity contracts, and only used their first names with the jail inmates. The all-male group of inmates from the addiction recovery dormitory, too, used only their first names or nicknames. The Inside-Out classmates are not to exchange phone numbers; they may not become Facebook friends. Thursday was a final goodbye for the group. In their last class, the 20 students delivered personal narrations about their classroom experiences and presented one another with certificates. The inmates and IU students sat in chairs arranged in a large circle. They started out a group of strangers, each nervous and apprehensive about being accepted and understood, said Hobie, an inside student, during his turn at the podium. In the first three-hour class session, each inmate spoke face-to-face with each student. They learned simple facts about one another, like the names of childhood pets.

it was found at the scene of three unrelated drug overdoses that occurred within 24 hours. Two men died, and one woman was hospitalized. But Avolt said the problem appears to be statewide. The issue came up during a continuing education conference for Indiana coroners in June. “It’s frustrating for law enforcement, prosecutors, (emergency room) physicians, our office . because some good lives have been lost,” Avolt said. “As I told the council, the money I asked for is just a temporary fix. I know I’m going to be back before the end of the year asking for more. “This is not a substance abuse problem for the lower socioeconomic class or minority groups. This is equal opportunity for everybody.”

Declining economic security Figures show hardship is particularly on the rise among whites WASHINGTON (AP) — Four out of 5 U.S. adults struggle with joblessness, near poverty or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives, a sign of deteriorating economic security and an elusive American dream. Survey data exclusive to The Associated Press points to an increasingly globalized U.S. economy, the widening gap between rich and poor and loss of good-paying manufacturing jobs as reasons for the trend. The findings come as President Barack Obama tries to renew his administration’s emphasis on the economy, saying in recent speeches that his highest priority is to “rebuild ladders of opportunity” and reverse income inequality. Hardship is particularly on the rise among whites, based on several measures. Pessimism among that racial group about their families’ economic futures has climbed to the highest point since at least 1987. In the most recent AP-GfK poll, 63 percent of whites called the economy “poor.” “I think it’s going to get worse,” said Irene Salyers, 52, of Buchanan County, Va., a declining coal region in Appalachia. Married and divorced three times, Salyers now helps run a fruit and vegetable stand with her boyfriend, but it doesn’t generate much income. They live mostly off government disability checks. “If you do try to go apply for a job, they’re not hiring people, and they’re not paying that much to even go to work,” she said. Children,

Four out of five U.S. adults struggle with joblessness, near poverty or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives, a sign of deteriorating economic security and a vanishing American

she said, have “nothing better to do than to get on drugs.” While racial and ethnic minorities are more likely to live in poverty, race disparities in the poverty rate have narrowed substantially since the 1970s, census data show. Economic insecurity among whites also is more pervasive than is shown in government data, engulfing more than 76 percent of white adults by the time they turn 60, according to a new economic gauge being published next year by the Oxford University Press. The gauge defines

Driver of derailed train questioned SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain (AP) — The driver of a Spanish train that derailed at high speed was being questioned by a judge on Sunday as officials tried to determine if he was responsible for the accident, which killed 79 people. Francisco Jose Garzon Amo, 52, has been held by police on suspicion of negligent homicide. He has not been formally charged by a magistrate or made any official statements. However, minutes after the crash Garzon said that he had been going fast and couldn’t brake, a local resident who rushed to the scene of the accident said in an interview broadcast Sunday. The resident, Evaristo Iglesias, said he and another person accompanied the blood-soaked Garzon to flat ground where other injured people were being laid

out, waiting for emergency services to arrive. “He told us that he wanted to die,” Iglesias told Antena 3 television. “He said he had needed to brake but couldn’t,” Iglesias said. He added that Garzon said “he had been going fast.” The train carrying 218 passenger in eight cars hurtled far over the 80-kph (50-mph) speed limit into a high-risk curve on Wednesday, tumbling off the tracks and slamming into a concrete wall, with some of the cars catching fire. The Spanish rail agency has said the brakes should have been applied four kilometers (2.5 miles) before the train hit the curve. On Sunday, Garzon was moved from the police station in the northwestern Spanish town of Santiago de Compostela, near where the accident occurred, to its courthouse just as the deadline of his 72 hours of

detention was to expire. Luis Alaez, the investigative judge, was to question the driver in private and was not expected to comment about it afterward. The judge also was to have access to the information contained in the train’s “black box,” which is similar to those found on aircraft, officials said. Investigators must determine if Garzon failed to apply the brakes or whether it was a technical failure. Previously Garzon had exercised his right to remain silent when police tried to interview him, officials said. Spain’s state-run train company has described him as an experience driver who knew the route well. In its report about the accident, Antena 3 television showed a photograph of Iglesias in a pink shirt and cap helping to carry

the driver after the train accident. The station also aired television footage of Iglesias working beside the wrecked train to help other survivors. In the interview, Iglesias recalled Garzon’s words, “‘I don’t want to see this, I want to die,’ that’s what he said repeatedly,” said Iglesias. “‘I had to brake down to 80 and couldn’t,’” Iglesias quoted the driver as saying. On Sunday, the death toll from the train derailment rose to 79 when an injured passenger died at University Hospital in Santiago de Compostela, officials said. She was identified as American Myrta Fariza of Houston, her family said in a statement. Fariza’s friends and family had created a Facebook page while she was hospitalized titled “Hope for Myrta,” where they collected donations and communicated.

Dream. Hardship is particularly on the rise among whites, based on several measures. Pessimism among that racial group about their families’ economic futures has climbed to the highest point since at least 1987. In the most recent AP-GfK poll, 63 percent of whites called the economy “poor.”

“economic insecurity” as experiencing unemployment at some point in their working lives, or a year or more of reliance on government aid such as food stamps or income below 150 percent of the poverty line. Measured across all races, the risk of economic insecurity rises to 79 percent. “It’s time that America comes to understand that many of the nation’s biggest disparities, from education and life expectancy to poverty, are increasingly due to economic class

position,” said William Julius Wilson, a Harvard professor who specializes in race and poverty. He noted that despite continuing economic difficulties, minorities have more optimism about the future after Obama’s election, while struggling whites do not. “There is the real possibility that white alienation will increase if steps are not taken to highlight and address inequality on a broad front,” Wilson said.

McCain’s Vietnam cellmate dies at 88 MIAMI (AP) — Retired Col. George “Bud” Day, a Medal of Honor recipient who spent 5½ years as a POW in Vietnam and was Arizona Sen. John McCain’s cellmate, has died at the age of 88, his widow said Sunday. Day, one of the nation’s most highly decorated servicemen since Gen. Douglas MacArthur and later a tireless advocate for veterans’ rights, died Saturday surrounded by family at his home in Shalimar, after a long illness, Doris Day said. “He would have died in my arms if I could have picked him up,” she said. Day received the Medal of Honor for escaping his captors for 10 days after the aircraft he was piloting was shot down over North Vietnam. In all, he earned more than 70 medals during service in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. He was an enlisted Marine serving in the Pacific during World War II and an Air Force pilot in the Korean and Vietnam wars. In Vietnam, he was McCain’s cellmate at one camp known as the Plantation and later in the infamous Hanoi Hilton, where he was often the highest-ranking captive. During his imprisonment, the once-muscular, 5-foot-9 Day was hung by his arms for days, tearing them from their sockets. He was freed in 1973 — a skeletal figure of the once dashing fighter pilot. His hands and arms never functioned properly again.

I saw a woman at the gym the other day who I really wanted to avoid. I used to see her a lot when my son Matthew, who has autism, was small. It seemed she was always there when he was bolting away from me at the grocery store, the swimming pool, the park. She watched me as I tackled Matthew before he wandered into the street, and while I tried to defuse a big bad meltdown. She was always sitting right behind us in church while Matthew flapped and tapped and giggled. Her pale blue eyes followed us everywhere and her frown was constant. I wove my way around the exercise bikes and ducked behind the magazine rack to avoid the woman, and then ran smack into her in front of the drinking fountain. She was wearing that frown that I remembered well, and her eyes bored into me in such a way that I couldn’t ignore her. “You look familiar,” she said, cocking her head. No kidding I look familiar. “Did our kids go to school together or something?” “Maybe,” I countered innocently. “I think we may have seen each other at the pool.”

“Of course!” she said smiling, her frown softening ever so slightly. “You had that adorable boy. I remember he had … issues.” I laughed self-consciously and explained that Matthew has autism and that some years had been more challenging than others. I told her that he was 26 now, living and working in this great community for people with disabilities near Santa Cruz called Camphill Communities California. “I’ll never forget the day he climbed to the top of the batting cage during a little league game,” she said, shuddering. “He was teetering around, and you climbed up like it was nothing and carried him down.” We burst out laughing and went on to talk about how her children were

doing, the ones I never got to know because I was so sure their mother was evil. What a waste! Here was this really nice and compassionate woman who I assumed was judging me when in reality she was just curious. And concerned. Even now when she was laughing with me she was frowning. She was a frowner, not a judger! And who knew why she was a frowner? She may have been coping with “issues” of her own. As we parted ways, I thought about all of the other people over the years that I had judged — and avoided — because I assumed they were judging me. I thought back to the day I climbed to the top of the batting cage to retrieve Matthew. And to the day I ran into the surf in Carmel fully clothed to pull him out. And to the day I sprinted down my street in red high heels and a black cocktail dress as Matthew rolled away precariously on a skateboard. We were stare-worthy in those days, and people still look at us sideways from time to time. I hope we were giving our audience something to talk about at the dinner table.

Authorities are still investigating the crash. The bus was nearly finished with a 365-mile journey, overturning just a mile from the church, where parents were waiting to pick up their children after a weeklong camp filled with prayer, zip lines and basketball. Weindorf, 51, had five children, Leffew said. â€œTonya was at camp because she has a specialneeds child who wanted to go, and she wanted to go and make it a good week, and according to her husband, it was a great week, and thatâ€™s who Tonya was,â€?

What he found was surreal â€” clothing and other items strewn about and windows missing from the bus. â€œYouâ€™re just praying that itâ€™s not as bad as it looks,â€? he said Saturday. His daughters escaped with just bumps and bruises. Indianapolis Public Safety Director Troy Riggs

called the crash a â€œgreat tragedy.â€? â€œThey were not that far from home. â€Ś That only adds to the tragedy,â€? Riggs said Saturday. Witness Duane Lloyd told WTHR on Saturday that he heard a loud noise behind him as he was traveling near the intersection and saw the crash around 4:15 p.m. â€” about the time Chad Phelps had tweeted that the group would arrive at the church.

military-backed regime. But many accused the groupâ€™s leaders of trying to capitalize on the loss of life to win sympathy after millions took to the streets in a show of support for the military chief who ousted Morsi in a coup. Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi said he would take the popular support as a mandate to deal with violence and â€œpotential terrorismâ€? â€” a thinly veiled reference to a widely expected crackdown

on Morsi supporters in the sit-in camps in Cairo and against radical Islamists in the Sinai peninsula who have been waging deadly attacks against security forces since Morsi was ousted in a July 3 military coup. The coup followed days of mass protests by millions of Egyptians demanding that Morsi step down after a year in office as Egyptâ€™s first elected president. The monthlong sit-ins have been the launch pad of street

Norm would scout from April to October, attending hundreds of games. â€œA lot of times I went with him. I got exposed to a lot of baseball teams and fields,â€? Steve said. â€œIt really increased my love for the game. â€œI thought it was cool. Every baseball coach in the Midwest knew who my dad was.â€? Getting to meet major-league baseball players added to the cool factor, Steve said. Among the Phillies stars he remembers meeting are Hall-of-Famer Mike Schmidt and Larry Bowa. â€œWe could have walked into the locker room if weâ€™d wanted, but my dad didnâ€™t abuse that sort of thing,â€? Steve said. Eventually, Steve began to have his own baseball

success. At Fort Wayneâ€™s Snider High School, Steve twice was named All-City as an outfielder, batting .495 his junior year. Not wanting to be accused of riding on his fatherâ€™s coattails, Steve said he was determined to make sure he outworked his competition. During the blizzard of 1978, with school closed for two weeks, Steve spent four hours a day in the indoor batting cage his father had built at the familyâ€™s home. â€œIt consumed me. I think I had two dates in high school,â€? Steve said. â€œI was baseball year-round.â€? Steve attended Bowling Green University on a full-ride baseball scholarship, but never made the jump to professional baseball. â€œI could run, but my arm was horrible,â€? he said. Norm scouted until his

retirement in 1994, the year he was named to the Indiana Baseball Hall of Fame. He also is a member of the Fort Wayne Old Timerâ€™s Association Hall of Fame and the Northeast Indiana Baseball Hall of Fame. In February, Norm, who passed away in 1999, was inducted posthumously into the Tell City High School Hall of Fame. Steve accepted the award on his fatherâ€™s behalf. Norm signed four players to major league contracts. More wound up in the minors, Steve said, and Norm helped many others play in college. â€œHe got a ton of kids scholarships. He could find the program where they could connect,â€? Steve said. â€œBeing a scout involves a lot of public relations, and he was a good representative of the Phillies.â€?

protests that often ended violently when Morsiâ€™s supporters clashed with opponents or security forces. Islamists led by the Brotherhood staunchly reject the new post-Morsi leadership and insist the only possible solution to the crisis is to reinstate him. Meanwhile, the interim leadership is pushing ahead with a fast-track transition plan to return to a democratically elected government by early next year.

ANGOLA â€” Steuben County pilot Randy Strebig will be one of the featured speakers during the third session of Lake Life 102. Strebig is the Indiana field director for the national Sea Plane Pilots Association. He is the president and founder of the Indiana Sea Plane Pilots Association, which hosts an annual Splash In at Pokagon State Parkâ€™s Potawatomi Inn beach. â€œIt really was an advocacy effort to demonstrate and prove that you can put 30 seaplanes on a basin in a lake,â€? said Stebig. He strives to educate people on sea planes and the fact that they are safe to use on public waters. They are not common in Steuben County lakes country, but Strebig noted that the noise does not rival the cacaphony of boat and Jet Ski motors in the summer. Planes are more environmentally friendly, too. â€œThereâ€™s no motor that

sits in the water,â€? said Strebig. â€œThereâ€™s no exhaust going into the water like boats.â€? Strebig said he plans to talk about the history of seaplanes, working his way to Indiana legislation in the 1950s that caused a lake to be an established landing area to be eligible for sea plane use. Due largely to Strebigâ€™s tenacity, there are now 20 lakes in Indiana that accept sea planes. There are applications at the Indiana Department of Natural Resources for eight additional Hoosier lakes to be opened, â€œand 10 more behind that,â€? Strebig said. Over the past 14 years, Strebig has worked with the DNR, aeronautical commission and Indiana Department of Transportation to loosen excessive standards for sea planes. He said he abides by every rule to show that sea planes pilots can easily share the lake with boaters. â€œI have been flying since â€˜95, really love all aspects of it,â€? said Strebig, who has four airplanes, one of which is a seaplane.

AP Auto Racing Writer Eds: Updates with new lead. With AP Photos. INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A born and bred Hoosier, Ryan Newman spent his childhood racing everywhere from Anderson to Winchester and every short track he could find in a state mad about racing. He graduated from Purdue and landed a summer job working in Jeff Gordon’s old race shop in Pittsboro. One of the perks? He got to live in the shop and sleep alongside the cars. And like many Indiana kids, he revered Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the track he first visited in 1986 and later accidentally stumbled upon NASCAR’s inaugural 1992 test while out buying tires with his mother. A win at the famed Brickyard? That would be a dream come true for the South Bend native. Newman made the boyhood dream a cool reality, taking the checkered flag Sunday to end a 49-race winless streak in front of his home state fans. His parents, who fueled his love of racing and took him to the 500 as a kid, joined him for his biggest win in Indiana. Newman was as cool

and collected in Victory Lane as he was on the track when he held off Jimmie Johnson. There were no tears, no quiver in his voice and no need to collect himself as Newman was strangely stoic. “I don’t show a lot of emotion, I think everybody knows that,” said Newman, who likened the victory to his 2008 win at the Daytona 500. “I had the same emotion, the same thankfulness I did when I won the Daytona 500 because I feel everybody that has been a part of my racing career — from people that bought my racing uniform, bought me a right rear tire, given us a credit card to get to some race track at some point in my career — those are the people that helped me get to where I am today. “To me, it’s awesome to be here at Indy. It’s awesome because it’s my home state. I’ve raced go karts at pretty much every go kart track around here, been kicked out of half of them. Those are the things that make it special. I think about those things more than I carry the emotion on my cheeks.” So the emotion was seen in father Greg, who spotted for Newman on SEE BRICKYARD, PAGE B2

U.S. claims Tigers keep Phils down Gold Cup

Senior British Open playoff goes on today

Hoosier kisses the bricks

Briefly • SOUTHPORT, England (AP) — Bernhard Langer and Mark Wiebe were tied after two playoff holes Sunday night in the storm-delayed Senior British Open when darkness suspended play at Royal Birkdale. They will finish the playoff this morning. Wiebe shot a 4-under 66 to match Langer at 9-under 271. Langer had a 70. They each parred the par-4 18th twice in the playoff. “Playing in the dark was a new one for me,” Wiebe said. “Hopefully, we’ll figure it out tomorrow.” Langer blew a two-stroke lead with a double bogey on the final hole of regulation after hitting into a greenside bunker. Minutes earlier, Wiebe’s birdie putt at No. 18 came up short. “I gave it away,” Langer said. “I could bogey the last hole and win. I thought I hit a decent shot in the bunker, but it came out too low. “But I made two good pars in the playoff in the dark, so what can you say. I’m sorry to keep you all hanging round tomorrow.” Corey Pavin, Peter Senior and David Frost tied for third at 6 under. Pavin shot a 65, Senior had 66, and Frost a 70. Langer seemed in control most of the afternoon, making the turn in 2-under 32 and picking up another birdie at the 12th. But he dropped a shot at the 14th, before needing two shots to get out of the bunker and two putts on the green at the last. Wiebe made five birdies and one bogey in his round. In the first hole of the playoff, Wiebe two-putted from just off the green. Langer did the same from 4 feet closer. They were offered the chance by tournament referee Andy McFeeto to call it a day, but opted to try again. With the clubhouse lights trying to brighten the gloom, the players were driven back to the tee.

United States DaMarcus Beasley holds the trophy as he celebrates with teammates after defeating Panama 1-0 during the CONCACAF Gold Cup final soccer match at Soldier Field on Sunday in Chicago.

CHICAGO (AP) — It took Brek Shea less than a minute to give the United States a goal. And the Gold Cup title. Shea scored 42 seconds after coming into the game as a substitute, and his goal in the 69th minute gave the United States a 1-0 victory over Panama in the CONCACAF Gold Cup final. It is the fifth Gold Cup title for the U.S., but it’s first since 2007. The victory also extended the Americans’ winning streak to a record 11 games, four more than their previous best. When the final whistle sounded, the Americans on the bench raced onto the field to join their teammates. Several players jumped up and down, and hugs and high-fives were exchanged. Coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who

watched the game from a luxury box after being suspended for his tirade over the officiating in the semifinal, quickly made his way down to the field, pumping his fists in the air as he walked. The Panamians, meanwhile, could only watch in disappointment. They came into the game full of confidence after beating Mexico twice during the tournament, but never really threatened the United States. The only downer on the day for the Americans was another injury to Stuart Holden’s right knee. He collapsed to the ground after colliding with another player in the first half and grabbed at his right knee. He was able to walk off the field on his own, but U.S. Soccer later said he had sprained the knee and it would need further evaluation.

DETROIT (AP) — By the time Jhonny Peralta broke the game open with a sixth-inning grand slam, the Detroit Tigers were already well on their way to another victory. For that, they could thank the Philadelphia Phillies, whose eighth straight loss might have been the ugliest of the bunch. Peralta’s slam capped an eight-run sixth for Detroit, and the Tigers overcame Miguel Cabrera’s ejection in a 12-4 win over the collapsing Phillies on Sunday. Cabrera was tossed while batting with the bases loaded in the third and manager Jim Leyland was ejected, too. Detroit still got plenty of additional chances against a Philadelphia team that all but handed the game away with errors and walks. “We got some benefits today,” Leyland said. “They struggled a little bit defensively, and a little bit throwing strikes.” In the sixth, the Tigers scored eight runs on only two hits. The Phillies made three errors and walked three batters in the inning. Rick Porcello (8-6) allowed three runs and seven hits in six innings to win his fourth straight start.

Kretzer wins PBA tourney at Angola Bowl By Ken Fillmore kfillmore@kpcmedia.com ANGOLA — Brian Kretzer won the Professional Bowlers Association’s Farmers State Bank/ Roto Grip Central/Midwest Open at Angola Bowl, defeating Huntington’s E.J. Tackett 213-179 Sunday afternoon. Kretzer was the No. 1 seed from the round-robin match play that began on Sunday morning and only had to bowl one match in the stepladder finals. He won $2,400 for winning the regional PBA event. Tackett was seeded third and won handily over Brad Miller in the first round (258-213) and over Chris Kliczinski in the semifinals (259-185). Tackett, the Central Region’s Player’s Invitational points leader, took home $1,250 for being the tournament runner-up. The championship match did not start well for either Tackett or Kretzer. They both knocked down six pins with the same four pins standing. Tackett only knocked two of those pins down to start the match, then Kretzer converted for a spare.

“We both left some things out there. I got a lucky break and (Tackett) had a bad break,” Kretzer said. “He did not bowl very well, but I was not spectacular.” Tackett said, “I thought I had a really good look the first two times and in practice. But sometimes you get it and sometimes you don’t. Brian was really good today and (Saturday).” Tackett had two open frames in his first four frames in Sunday’s final match. Kretzer marked in every frame, and only had an open frame after beginning the 10th frame with a strike. Kretzer had five strikes in the final. The lanes were not very oily on Sunday afternoon after plenty of professional bowling over the past two days. Thirty men participated in the tournament and bowled six games apiece on Saturday. The top 10 qualified for the round-robin play which began on Sunday morning. The top four bowlers from the round-robin qualified for the stepladder finals. The lane conditions Sunday afternoon favored Kretzer, a

Vanover leads NC to victory FROM STAFF REPORTS

PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

State champion softball star Jenessa Hasty is a catcher and pitcher for the Oak Hill age 12-and-under all-star softball team that recently won an Indiana state championship. Oak Hill is made up of girls from Grant County and defeated Pioneer 8-0 in the state tournament championship game played at North Miami High School in Denver. Hasty is the granddaughter of Janet Grabill of Angola and the late Gordon Grabill and is the daughter of Rick and Jackie Hasty. Jackie (Grabill) Hasty is a Prairie Heights High School graduate. Jenessa Hasty batted fourth in the Oak Hill lineup and had a batting average of .450. She will be in seventh grade at Oak Hill Junior High next month and plays softball, volleyball and basketball for the school. Oak Hill’s 12U softball team was 18-1 prior to playing in a tournament in Noblesville this past weekend, and will also compete in the Blueberry Festival in September. Rick Hasty is one of three fathers coaching this state championship team, which had an escort of eight fire trucks take them to Oak Hill High School after the memorable victory over Pioneer.

ALBION — Noble County Wolfpack running back Alic Vanover ran roughshod over the Michigan Grizzlies to lead his team to a 33-18 victory Saturday night in semi-pro football. The contest was played at Central Noble High School in Albion and moved the Wolfpack to a 4-0 mark on the season. The Grizzlies are from the Great Midwest Football League while the Wolfpack play in the Interstate Football League. Vanover, who played his high school football at Fairfield, had touchdown runs of 67, 73, 97 and 20 yards on the night. And he ran for a score in each of the four quarters before taking a rest after his fourth-quarter TD. He ended up with 267 yards on the night, according to unofficial stats. The Grizzlies challenged the Wolfpack defense, which had given up just one touchdown in the first three games of the season. The Michigan team crossed the goal line three times but could never catch up with VanOver and the rest of the Noble County offense. Former West Noble standout Kyle Marsh played the entire game at quarterback for the Wolfpack, stepping in for Michael Knepper, who was under the weather. Marsh threw a seven-yard touchdown passed to another former Charger, Matt Rupright, late in the fourth quarter to seal the win for the local team. Saturday, the Wolfpack travels to Bloomington to play the Indiana Cutters in an IFL game. On Aug. 10, the team plays at East Noble High School in Kendallville against the Battle Creek Blaze. That game is a fundraiser for the fight against breast cancer with special events planned, along with T-shirts and jerseys. Noble County defeated the Blaze 17-0 in its opener this season.

Newman kept it together during his celebratory burnout and the drive to Victory Lane, a hallowed area that he twice had to ask his crew over the radio for directions how to get there. He took the customary ride in a convertible around the track with his wife and two young daughters, and happily bowed again and again to kiss the Yard of Bricks. Sure, he smiled, and shared some tender hugs with one of his daughters. But that was the most anyone was getting out of Newman, who had admitted to getting emotional after winning the pole on Saturday but seemed almost

numb following Sunday’s win. “I’m not sure (how I feel) at this point. I know it’s an amazing feeling,” he said. “I was more emotional yesterday after winning the pole than I was two laps after doing my donuts and everything else today. I’m not sure why. I took an emotional hit yesterday. Just an awesome day.” Newman beat Johnson twice on this Brickyard weekend, first when he set a NASCAR track record in knocking Johnson off the pole in qualifying, then Sunday with a fast final pit stop to snatch the win from the four-time Indianapolis winner. The two were the class of the field — they combined to lead 118 of the 160 laps

Kretzer said. “I don’t have much of a chance to do it, but I can still do it.” Tackett said, “The lanes got a little more weird than I thought… I went left because nobody was playing there except for Brian. It was hard to close down angles.” The tournament in Angola ended a busy week for both Kretzer and Tackett. It started for both of them in Columbus, Ohio, at one of the PBA’s premier events, the Lipton’s Bowling U.S. Open. Tackett finished sixth in round-robin match play Thursday with 11,803 pins and a 14-10 record. He was two places away from bowling in the finals Saturday on ESPN and was 246 pins away the from fourth and last finals qualifier Wes Malott. “I bowled really good, but not good enough,” Tackett said. “I threw (in Angola) like I did in the Open. I went on muscle memory. Kretzer was four pins away from moving on past Wednesday’s qualifying round at the U.S. Open and tied for 68th place. He mulled it over with his wife Jill in deciding to play in Angola. Brian caught up with one of his best friends halfway between Columbus

and Angola before playing in the FSB Roto Grip Open. “I needed to get back at it instead of feeling sad,” Kretzer said. Two area men participated in the tournament, but did not advance past Saturday’s qualifying round. Churubusco’s Gabe Jacks was 19th with 1,147 pins, and Angola’s Randy Baatz was 27th with 1.037. The Central Region includes mostly the Great Lakes region from Chicago to the east, and includes Pennsylvania, New York and Kentucky. The Midwest Region includes a portion of the country from Chicago and to the west, including Missouri and Kansas.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Travis Wood did more than just pitch his way out of trouble. He also hit his way to victory. Wood pitched a four-hitter over seven innings and had a home run among his two hits in helping the Chicago Cubs complete a three-game sweep in San Francisco for the first time in 20 years, beating the Giants 2-1 Sunday. “He threw one in there and I was able to put a good swing on it and hit it out of the park,” Wood said. “I’m always surprised. I’m not trying to hit home runs.” Welington Castillo also homered for the Cubs, who won their third straight and five of seven despite playing without Alfonso Soriano, who was traded to the New York Yankees on Friday. “It’s tough to lose him,” Wood said. “He was the leader of this team, he’s been here the longest and he was swinging a hot bat. Guys just have to step up and fill in.” The Cubs’ clubhouse broke into spontaneous cheering when Soriano homered for the Yankees and later learned of his game-winning hit. “He’s our boy,” Castillo said. “He just needs to keep doing what he’s been doing.” For one series, at least, the Cubs found a way to win without their popular ex-teammate. Pablo Sandoval drove in a run for the Giants, who have

lost four straight and seven of eight. Tim Lincecum (5-11) had two hits in addition to pitching seven innings. He gave up two runs and four hits. He walked two and struck out a season-high 10. “Tim did a great job,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “Not only did he pitch well, he got a couple of hits there. It’s a shame he couldn’t get him the win. “In all my years I’ve never seen a team go through such a hard time getting runs in like we’re having right now. It’s a shame because we’re getting such great pitching.” Wood (7-7) allowed an unearned run while walking four and striking out seven. Wood was 1-4 over his previous nine games. He’s been involved in 10 one-run decisions. “Early on it was kind of a grind but it was that way for both of us,” Wood said. “I was able to settle down quite nicely.” Pedro Strop threw a scoreless eighth, his 12th consecutive scoreless outing (10 2-3 innings) since joining the Cubs on July 2. Kevin Gregg recorded the final three outs for his 22nd save in 25 chances, and his third straight of the series. Wood ended the scoreless tie with his third home run, a solo shot with two outs and on a 2-2 count, in the fifth. It was the first career home run Lincecum has allowed to an opposing pitcher.

White Sox lose in 12 on Gordon’s homer CHICAGO (AP) — Jake Peavy is headed to Cleveland with the Chicago White Sox. It remains to be seen if he returns with the team. Peavy brought a couple of large suitcases into Chicago’s clubhouse on Sunday morning and watched as the last-place White Sox lost 4-2 to the Kansas City Royals in 12 innings. He is scheduled to face the Indians on Tuesday, but he’s also one of the top pitchers on the market ahead of Wednesday’s non-waiver trade deadline. “Right now I have some pretty hard travel plans,” Peavy said. “I’m going to be on the team flight to Cleveland and

I’ll show up ready to work in Cleveland tomorrow unless I hear otherwise. “We’ll all hear something in the next few days, so it’ll all soon be over and we won’t have to deal with this one way or the other.” The White Sox closed out a 3-7 homestand with their ninth loss in 12 games overall. The sight of Peavy coming in with all that luggage was another reminder of a season gone awry. After the four-game series against the Indians, the White Sox play three games at Detroit before returning home to face the New York Yankees on Aug. 5.

It could be a much different team by the time the road trip is over, with outfielder Alex Rios also thought to be on the market. “It does me no good to sit around and contemplate what’s going to happen and what I’ve heard,” Peavy said. “You can imagine what my phone’s been like with texts from anybody and everybody. It’s something that I really don’t worry too much about. You just kinda let life happen and you react when something is set in stone.” Kansas City (51-51) earned its sixth consecutive victory — matching its longest winning streak of the season — and got back to .500 for the first time

since it beat Cleveland 2-1 on June 17 to improve to 34-34. It’s the best record for the Royals this late in the year since they finished the 2003 season with an 83-79 mark, according to STATS. “To get here was big,” manager Ned Yost said. “Now we got to get past it and just stay focused day to day.” With no outs and Jarrod Dyson on third in the 12th, the White Sox brought their infield in, but it didn’t matter one bit. Alex Gordon drove a 2-2 pitch from Donnie Veal (1-1) over the wall in center for his first homer since July 7 and No. 10 on the year.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Snedeker wins Canadian Open OAKVILLE, Ontario (AP) — Brandt Snedeker won the Canadian Open on Sunday for his second PGA Tour title of the year, closing with 2-under 70 for a three-stroke victory. Snedeker took the lead Saturday after second-round leader Hunter Mahan withdrew when his wife went into labor, and held on in the breezy final round at Glen Abbey. Mahan’s wife, Kandi, gave birth to daughter Zoe Olivia Mahan early Sunday in Texas. Snedeker finished at 16-under 272. Dustin Johnson, William McGirt, Matt Kuchar and Jason Bohn tied for second.

Angels’ Pujols placed on DL OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Los Angeles Angels slugger Albert Pujols was put on the disabled list Sunday with a tear in his left foot that could end his season. Manager Mike Scioscia said the star will be sidelined for “a significant amount of time.” Pujols has a partially torn plantar fascia, an injury that has bothered him most of the season. He aggravated it while running out a single in the ninth inning of Friday’s 6-4 loss to Oakland. “This is something that, talking to Albert, has been going on for six or seven years,” Scioscia said before the Angels’ game against Athletics. “It’s been going on for a long time and he’s managed it. This is a big blow to our team right now.” Although surgery seems unlikely, Scioscia didn’t rule out the possibility that Pujols could be sidelined for the rest of the year. Pujols left the team and returned to Los Angeles on Saturday morning for additional testing. That’s when the injury was diagnosed.

Marlins coach Martinez resigns MIAMI (AP) — Tino Martinez resigned as the Miami Marlins’ hitting coach hours after complaints by players that he verbally abused them became public. In one instance, Martinez acknowledged he angrily grabbed a player. Martinez was in his first year as a professional coach this year. He sat in the dugout during Sunday’s 3-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, then met with Marlins officials and resigned. “I want to apologize to the Marlins organization for my behavior,” Martinez said. “I have made some comments to certain players at certain times that I thought was more constructive criticism. Obviously, they didn’t feel that way, and it kind of backfired on me.” Martinez said he once touched a player in anger, grabbing rookie Derek Dietrich by the jersey in the batting cage early this season. Dietrich, demoted last Monday to Double-A Jacksonville, was among the players to complain. Martinez said he offered to resign earlier, but team owner Jeffrey Loria wanted him to stay on the job. When the complaints by players became public in a story Sunday by the Miami Herald, Martinez became certain he should resign. “It has been building for a few days,” he said. “I didn’t know this was going to come out publicly. When this came out, I thought it was the right thing to do.” Marlins minor league field coordinator John Pierson will become interim hitting coach. First-year manager Mike Redmond said everyone in the organization was disappointed with the outcome of Martinez’ brief tenure.

Broncos lose center for year ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Broncos center Dan Koppen is out for the season after tearing his left ACL on Sunday in 9-on-7 drills, less than six weeks after rejoining Denver following J.D. Walton’s setback in his comeback from ankle surgery. Koppen, an 11-year veteran who played his first nine seasons with the Patriots, was caught in a pile early in the workout and was carted off the field and taken for an MRI, which revealed the season-ending injury. Manny Ramirez, who took most of the snaps at center during Denver’s offseason practices, stepped in for Koppen, whose teams have gone 108-28 in games he has started. “I always cringe,” a somber-sounding coach John Fox said after practice. “You never like to see players get injured, particularly severely injured. But you understand when you do this long enough, whether you’re a player or a coach, that this happens. You know, you get them back ready.”

McNabb to retire as an Eagle PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Six-time Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb will officially retire a member of the Philadelphia Eagles today. McNabb played 11 of his 13 seasons with the Eagles, leading them to eight playoff appearances, five NFC East titles, five conference championship games and one Super Bowl loss. The 36-year-old McNabb hasn’t played in the NFL since 2011. He was traded to Washington in 2010, started 13 games for the Redskins that season and six for Minnesota the following year. McNabb is the Eagles’ leader in may passing categories, including attempts (4,746), completions (2,801), yards (32,873), and touchdowns (216). He led the team to 100 wins, including nine in the playoffs. His 3,469 career yards rushing ranks sixth on the NFL’s all-time list.

THE HERALD REPUBLICAN

Meet the new George H.W. Bush So there he was, wheelchair-bound but with the old sense of style, short of breath but with the old intuitive grace: George H.W. Bush, 89 years old, back in the White House, there to mark the 5,000th Points of Light Award and to remind us that there are second acts in American lives — and that oftentimes they are extraordinary. Many American presidents have had remarkable second lives. John Quincy Adams, like Bush a member of an indispensable American political dynasty, followed his White House years with a star turn in the House and distinguished himself as a man of courage and integrity by winning freedom for Africans who mutinied on the slave ship Amistad and refusing payment for arguing their case before the Court. DAVID M. Supreme Later, Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter, like single-term presidents, won the world’s SHRIBMAN Adams applause as advocates for human rights, ranging from freedom from hunger in European war zones to freedom from fear at the polling place. It may be that leaving the White House after a single term liberates a man to do his best work — Rutherford B. Hayes was a tireless advocate for educational opportunity and social mobility, for example — though Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan prove that an inspired and inspiring second act is not the fate of all single-term presidents. Still, nothing changes presidents’ profiles quite so much as leaving the White House, sometimes to have those profiles polished and perhaps sanitized in their post-presidential years. That’s not inevitable, however. Woodrow Wilson has been diminished by the passing of time; grand boulevards in European capitals were named for him after World War I, but today his romantic idealism is often deprecated and his presidency is often dispar... nothing changes aged. presidents’ profiles quite Bush is our latest living example of how time can burnish a so much as leaving the president’s profile. He left office as a caricature of an Andover-and-Ivy White House, sometimes plutocrat, lacking feeling for the to have those profiles victims of an economic downturn, remote from the daily lives of the polished and perhaps people he sought to lead, offering sanitized in their timeworn but irrelevant nostrums for the nation’s problems. post-presidential years. Today the man who relentlessly cultivated that image of Bush, his 1992 rival Bill Clinton, regards him pre-eminently as a man of integrity and achievement. Indeed, Clinton sometimes speaks fondly of Bush as the father he never had, and members of the Bush family joke that Clinton is the 41st president’s favorite son. Bush left office 20 years ago, and his appearance in the East Room last week in mismatched red-and-white-striped socks — his real son, Neil Bush, said the family patriarch now is referred to as “GQ Man” by his wife and children — was a poignant symbol of the passing of time, and of what time’s passing can do to a presidency. For Ulysses S. Grant, the passing of time (as well as a splendid biography released last year by H.W. Brands, “The Man Who Saved the Union”) has transformed the 18th president from a bumbling, corrupt drunkard placeholder into a man of intelligence, determination, shrewdness and tolerance, particularly toward Indians, and, in Brand’s estimation, “indisputably above politics.” For John Adams and for Harry Truman, the passing of time (and landmark biographies by David McCullough) transformed both single-election presidents into men of courage and idealism, almost romance. McCullough’s book on Truman rode (and extended) a crest in the 33rd president’s image, and his Adams volume gave the second president’s historical reputation an extreme makeover. It is not too much to say, figuratively of course, that McCullough retrieved Adams from the dead. For James A. Garfield, the passing of time (and a riveting book by Candice Millard, “Destiny of the Republic,” released in 2011) transformed the 20th president from an obscure figure remembered mostly for being assassinated into a figure of grandness and destiny, a formidable symbol of American opportunity and mobility. Millard’s book remains a briskly selling paperback even in airports, assuring that Garfield will not soon retreat back into popular eclipse. For Dwight D. Eisenhower, the passage of time (and an important 1982 scholarly book by Fred I. Greenstein whose title, “The Hidden-Hand Presidency,” has become a familiar term) transformed the former general from an inarticulate duffer and inveterate golfer into a shrewd if not cunning master of power, supplanting entirely the notion that the 34th president used the White House as a cozy retreat after his principal achievement, commanding Allied forces in Europe during World War II. This new view of Eisenhower was reinforced by last year’s masterly 976-page “Eisenhower in War and Peace” by Jean Edward Smith. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel recently distributed to more than two-dozen Pentagon officials a study of Eisenhower’s handling of the 1956 Suez crisis. For Lyndon B. Johnson, the passage of time (and volumes three and four — though pointedly not volume two — of Robert A. Caro’s magisterial biography of LBJ) transformed the 36th president from a crude if not corrupt accidental chief executive, whose ineptitude sent tens of thousands to their deaths in Vietnam, into an ambitious if not quixotic spokesman for civil rights and an astral if not utopian advocate for social progress. Bush has needed no revisionist tract to rehabilitate his image, though students of the presidency await Jon Meacham’s forthcoming biography. In White House remarks at last week’s event, Neil Bush said his father urged his sons (and all Americans) to live meaningful, ambitious lives and, in the younger Bush’s words, to “find the dignity and goodness in every person.” Historical revisionism and popular reassessment often do just that, but it requires the presence of inner dignity and innate goodness in a president to accomplish it. The elder Bush was a master of power politics in foreign affairs (at the Central Intelligence Agency as well as in the White House) and of hard-nosed politics in his election battles (especially in his 1988 battle with Gov. Michael S. Dukakis of Massachusetts). But the country regards him today as an ineffable symbol of dignity and goodness. Sometimes the presidency isn’t so much a gift to an individual as it is to the nation.

All people are encouraged to attend Aug. 11 as an honor to our veterans and in recognition that Indiana is a part of a national cemetery system.

Public officials should not be public all the way down BY MICHAEL GERSON

WASHINGTON — Most Americans these days are impatient with judgmentalism and self-righteousness when it comes to sex scandals. But mocking humor flows naturally. They find it easier to smirk than to censure. Politicians caught in money scandals look corrupt. Politicians caught in awkward sexual situations look weak and risible. And often — as in the cases of Rep. Mark Sanford and Sen. David Vitter — they are forgiven. This is consistent with broader social trends. The bourgeois virtues surrounding money have survived the last few decades in better shape than those surrounding sex. Middleclass standards now include the expectations of delayed marriage, of multiple sexual partners making responsible use of contraception, and of cohabitation before marriage. This is not regarded as relativism but as an updated version of bourgeois stability. And sex itself is often viewed as a fundamentally private matter. In politics, some of the effects are positive. Public officials should not be forced to be public all the way down. Given the complexity of human relationships, every couple requires enough personal space to work through difficult times. And the notion that being faithless in private responsibilities inevitably leads to the betrayal of public responsibilities is ahistorical (see Franklin Roosevelt or Dwight Eisenhower). Marital infidelity is destructive to spouses and children and a violation of the Seventh Commandment. It is not,

by itself, a disqualification for public office. But just as it is not sufficient to say that sex is always relevant, it is not sufficient to say it is never relevant. It can also reveal less sympathetic character failings than a weakness of the flesh. The problem arises with sex plus other things. One problematic category is sex plus compulsion, as we see in the case of Anthony Weiner. He engaged in his online activities after previous exposure, after resignation from Congress, after the promise to seek treatment, and shortly before resuming his political ambitions. In his reported contact with a 22-yearold, Weiner employed his scandalbased celebrity as a lure. If this is a clinical addiction, akin to prescription drug abuse, then no psychologist would recommend a campaign for mayor of New York as part of the healing process. If this is not a clinical addiction, it is recklessness bordering on predation (particularly when the alleged offer of career and financial benefits is considered). In either case, Mayor Weiner would be a likely source of future scandal. Another category is sex plus hubris, as we saw in the case of Eliot Spitzer. As governor of New York, Spitzer signed a law making paying for sex a Class E felony, which he serially violated. The problem here is not mere hypocrisy. (All adulterers engage in hypocrisy, unless they are public advocates of polyamory.) As a law enforcement officer, Spitzer seemed to believe he was above the law, exempt from the rules that cover normal citizens. This is not

Given the complexity of human relationships, every couple requires enough personal space to work through difficult times.

• only a view of morality but also a view of power. Then there is the category of sex plus misogyny, which seems to be the case in San Diego’s scandal by the sea. Mayor Robert Filner stands accused of a variety of reprehensible acts against women unfortunate enough to be within groping range. Filner, it should be noted, disputes at least some of those claims. He has also said, “I am embarrassed to admit that I have failed to fully respect the women who work for me and with me.” He added: “I need help.” If these accusations are true, it is difficult to argue that dehumanization and mistreatment based on gender are purely personal matters. Mostly, sex is properly private. Combined with recklessness, the abuse of power or cruelty, however, it can take on public implications. While rejecting judgmentalism, it is still appropriate for voters to exercise some judgment. MICHAEL GERSON’S email address is michaelgerson@washpost.com.

Briefs • Large explosions rock Benghazi TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — Two large explosions hit courthouses in the city of Benghazi late Sunday, leaving part of one of the buildings a pile of rubble, two security officials said. An official in Benghazi said 10 people were wounded, two seriously, in the explosion outside one courthouse. Video posted by residents online showed several vehicles destroyed by that explosion. The video also showed residents standing in a crater in the ground outside the building. Another courthouse in the eastern part of the city was also hit, said a security official in the capital, Tripoli. The courthouse in the north of Benghazi was the site of the first protests against dictator Moammar Gadhafi in early 2011.

Arrest made in British Twitter case LONDON (AP) — British police on Sunday arrested a man in connection with online threats made toward a feminist campaigner, a case which has ignited calls for social media platforms to institute stronger protections against verbal abuse. Caroline Criado-Perez says she has been facing a deluge of abuse — including threats to rape and kill her — over Twitter during the past several days. She said the threats started after her campaign to get a woman’s picture on a U.K. bank note succeeded and resulted in the Bank of England’s announcement last week that author Jane Austen will feature on England’s new 10-pound notes.

Two-headed turtle gets Facebook page SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A two-headed turtle born last month at the San Antonio Zoo has become so popular that she has her own Facebook page. Zoo officials say the Texas cooter, named Thelma and Louise for the female duo in the 1991 Oscar-winning movie, has been doing well. Spokeswoman Debbie Rios-Vanskike says the turtle eats and swims, and added that the two heads — named Louise Left and Thelma Right — get along. The Facebook page on Sunday showed photos of the quirky reptile and imaginary conversations between the two heads.

People • 9-year-old girl is nation’s youngest chess expert CHELMSFORD, Mass. (AP) — Only three years or so since first picking up the game of chess, 9-year-old Carissa Yip can already look down at 93 percent of the more than 51,000 players Yip registered with the U.S. Chess Federation. She has risen so far up the rankings that she has reached the expert level at a younger age than anyone since the chess federation began electronic record-keeping in 1991, a new level she reached in recent weeks. Her father, Percy, who taught her until she began beating him within a year, said she could reach master level in as soon as a year. “Some never reach master level,” he said. “From expert to master, it’s a huge jump.” But Carissa, who will be a fifth-grader at McCarthy Middle School this fall, has improved by leaps and bounds. She first played competitively at the MetroWest Chess Club and Wachusett Chess Club, at the latter of which she’s the top-ranked player.

Florida shooter was angry loner HIALEAH, Fla. (AP) — The gunman who went on a shooting rampage at his South Florida apartment building, killing six people, was a lonely man who spoke about having pent up anger, those who knew him said Sunday. Pedro Vargas, 42, lived on the fourth floor of a barren, concrete apartment complex in the Miami suburb of Hialeah with his elderly mother. He rarely spoke with others there, and confided to a man who worked out at the same gym that he liked to work out his anger by lifting weights and trying to get big. “He’d just say this was the only thing that would keep him normal, pulling out all the anger in the gym,” Jorge Bagos told The Associated Press. Bagos said the gunman expressed frustration over bad experiences with women and losing all his hair from using steroids. On Friday night, Vargas set a combustible liquid on fire in his apartment, sending the unit into flames, police said. Building manager Italo Pisciotti and his wife went running toward the smoke. Vargas opened his door and shot and killed both of them, Lt. Carl Zogby, a spokesman

with the Hialeah Police Department said. Vargas then went back into his apartment and began firing from his balcony. One of the shots struck and killed Carlos Javier Gavilanes, 33, who neighbors said was returning home from his son’s boxing practice. Vargas then stormed into a third-story apartment, where he shot and killed a family of three: Patricio Simono, 64, Merly Niebles, 51, and her 17-year-old daughter. For eight hours, police followed and exchanged gunfire with Vargas throughout the five-story apartment complex as terrified residents took cover in bathrooms and huddled with relatives, sometimes so close to the gunfire they could feel the shots. In the final hours, Vargas took two people captive in a fifth-story unit. Police attempted to negotiate with him, but the talks fell apart and a SWAT team swarmed in, killing Vargas and rescuing both hostages. On Sunday, neighbors struggled to remember anything more than cursory exchanges with Vargas. He was often seen taking his mother, who used a walker, to run errands and go to doctor appointments.

Paris thief walks out with $53 million in diamonds, jewels PARIS (AP) — A staggering $53 million (40 million euro) worth of diamonds and other jewels were stolen Sunday from the Carlton Intercontinental Hotel in Cannes, in one of Europe’s biggest jewelry heists in recent years, police said. One expert noted the crime follows recent jail escapes by members of the notorious “Pink Panther” jewel thief gang. The hotel in the sweltering French Riviera was hosting a temporary jewelry exhibit over the summer from the prestigious Leviev diamond house, which is owned by Israeli billionaire Lev Leviev. A police spokesman said the theft took place around noon, but he could not confirm local media reports that the robber was a single gunman who stuffed a suitcase with the gems before making a swift exit. The spokesman spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the

matter on the record. The luxury Carlton hotel is situated on the exclusive Promenade de la Croisette that stretches a mile and a half along the French Riviera, and is thronged by the rich and famous throughout the year. The hotel’s position provides not only a beautiful view of the sea but also an easy getaway for potential jewel thieves along the long stretch of road. The Carlton also was robbed in a smash-andn-grab by three armed men that stormed the jewelry store there in 1994 and made off with $46 million worth of gems. That held the record as Europe’s largest jewelry heist until 2003 when the Belgian diamond exchange in Antwerp was seized. “It’s a huge theft. Anytime you talk about a heist with many millions of dollars it turns heads and feeds the imagination,” said Jonathan Sazonoff, U.S. editor for the Museum Security Network website and an authority on high-value crime.

Second body found in Hudson PIERMONT, N.Y. (AP) — A day after a bride-to-be was pulled dead from the Hudson River, the body of her fiance’s best man was found a mile downstream Sunday, the second victim of a nighttime crash involving a Lennon speedboat and a barge north of New York City. The deadly collision left the groom-to-be grieving for his intended and his best friend, while facing surgery for his own injuries as another friend is charged with manslaughter — two weeks before the wedding day. “I don’t think you can put words to what we have to tell these families,” Rockland County Sheriff Louis Falco said as he announced that a body believed to be that of Mark Lennon, 30, the best man, was found Sunday morning.

At the church where Lindsey Stewart and Brian Bond, both 30, would have been married Aug. 10, the pastor said their lives “were filled with hopes and dreams, and that has been snuffed away.” Stewart, Bond, Lennon and three others were on a speedboat that crashed Friday night into a barge holding equipment for the construction of a replacement for the Tappan Zee. The group had left the village of Piermont for a short trip aboard the 21-foot Stingray across the river to Tarrytown, about 30 miles north of New York City, authorities said. Police said it was being piloted by Jojo John, 35, of Nyack, whom they suspect was intoxicated and who has been charged with vehicular manslaughter and vehicular assault. Stewart and Lennon were thrown off the boat. When the bodies were found, they did not have life vests on, said Sheriff’s Department Chief William Barbera.

Floods deluge North Carolina CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — A system of thunderstorms across western North Carolina stalled on Saturday and dumped about a foot of rain on the area, causing power outages and flash floods that swamped homes and washed out roads and bridges. There were 18 reports of swift-water rescues, and one minor injury, said Jim Dickerson, spokesman for Catawba County Emergency Services. He did not have details. Hickory Mayor Rudy Wright urged residents to stay indoors and away from flooded roads, The Charlotte Observer reported. “This is a time for all of us to be very careful and patient,” he said. “The cleanup is going to take a while.” Parts of Catawba and surrounding counties were

under water Saturday. Catawba County officials said some of the worst flash flooding in decades followed a nearly stationary weather system that dumped 10 inches of rain in about six hours. Officials closed 65 roads in Catawba County by Saturday afternoon. At least six will remain closed for up to three months to repair damage, Dickerson said. A full damage assessment will begin Sunday, he said. High Shoals Lake in Catawba County rose nearly five feet over a 10-hour span. Officials said high water will move down the Catawba River later Saturday, possibly causing more flooding. The rain had stopped in the area by late afternoon Saturday. The National Weather Service said the

heavy rain will move east across the western piedmont of North Carolina and northeastern South Carolina. Several miles of Interstate 85 in Cabarrus County was closed for a short time due to high water. Traffic moved at a crawl along both I-85 and Interstate 77 north of Charlotte as drivers navigated water several inches deep in spots. In Lincoln County, there were reports of up to three feet of water covering roads. Duke Energy reported about 5,000 power outages. It is at least the fourth major flash flooding event in the Charlotte region in the past month. Highway officials already are working to repair more than a dozen Charlotte-area roads damaged by previous flooding.

Empty house needs family’s full attention DEAR ABBY: My grandmother made the decision to move to an assisted-living facility two years ago. She left most of her belongings in her farmhouse, which has sat empty since then. Her health is fine, so she should be around for many years. It has already been decided that my dad will inherit the house, but he doesn’t want to live there anytime soon because of the location. (It’s way out in the country.) I’m afraid the house is going to become unlivable if it sits for years without utilities or anyone taking care of it. Dad mows the grass, but that’s about it, and all of Grandma’s belongings are collecting dead flies. Nobody seems to care but me. Dad has three siblings, and between them there are nine grandchildren. How do I get my family to take care of Grandma’s house? — CONSCIENTIOUS IN

DEAR DOCTOR K: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s announcement about his weight-loss surgery got me thinking. Can you tell me more about this surgery and who might be a good candidate for it? DEAR READER: Governor Christie — as well-known for his waistline as his politics — recently confirmed that he had weight-loss surgery. There are several types of weightloss surgery (also called “bariatric surgery”). They work either by shrinking the size of the stomach, reducing the absorption of calories and nutrients in the intestine, or both. Some types of surgery also lead to hormone changes that reduce appetite and burn energy more efficiently. The procedure Christie reportedly had is called gastric banding, or “Lap-Band.” Gastric

I agree with you that nothing good can happen to the house if no one is paying attention. It’s an invitation to theft or vandalism. The house should be cleaned and dusted.

of your body fat calculated from your height and weight.) You can also qualify for surgery if you have a BMI of 35 to 39.9 along with an obesity-related medical condition such as diabetes or heart disease. In people with a BMI of 40 or higher, the surgery can lengthen life, although the evidence for this is stronger in women than in men. Don’t think of weightloss surgery as an easy fix. You must make a lifelong commitment to healthy eating in order to achieve lasting weight loss. Without this lifestyle change, surgery will either make you miserable or not result in weight loss. And most likely, both. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.

Ex-Penn State officials headed to court HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — It was late at night on Feb. 27, 2001, and Penn State’s then-president, Graham Spanier, one of academia’s most prominent administrators, typed a brief email to two other top administrators as they debated how to respond to a thorny situation. He was, he wrote, supportive of the athletic director’s proposed approach. “The only downside for us is if the message isn’t ‘heard’ and acted upon, and we then become vulnerable for not having reported it,” Spanier wrote. The question of what exact situation the three men were discussing will go before a judge today to determine whether Spanier, retired university vice president Gary Schultz and then-athletic director Tim Curley must face trial on charges they covered up an allegation that Jerry Sandusky was sexually preying on boys. The men say they are

innocent and were never aware that an allegation at the time involved anything of a sexual nature. Rather, they say, they had believed that Sandusky, a former top assistant coach on Penn State’s heralded football team, and the boy known in court papers as Victim 2 were engaged in nothing more than horseplay in a university locker room shower earlier that month. Instead of reporting it to police, Sandusky was told not to bring boys onto the campus anymore, according to a grand jury report released Nov. 1 that recommended charges against the men. At the time, nobody sought to learn the identity of the boy. Sandusky is now serving a 30- to 60-year prison sentence after being convicted last year of sexually abusing 10 boys. The conviction included molesting Victim 5 in those showers a mere six months later, sexually abusing Victim 3 around the same period and molesting

Victims 1 and 9 in later years. The case will go in front of District Judge William Wenner, a former Dauphin County detective, and the preliminary hearing is expected to last a day or two. In recent years as a district judge, Wenner has carved out a niche in handling many of the biggest grand jury cases developed by the state attorney general’s office. In these cases, Wenner has found, with the exception of a few charges he has dismissed, that state prosecutors have met the low burden of evidence necessary to win approval to take their cases to a full court trial. For this hearing, state prosecutors led by Chief Deputy Attorney General Bruce Beemer are not trying to prove the men’s guilt. Rather, they just have to prove that enough evidence exists to warrant a trial. No witness list was available Friday, but one key piece of evidence at the

hearing could be that email exchange among the men. “My eyes popped out of my head when I saw those emails because they are just so dramatically significant and documentary evidence of a then-conscious state of mind,” said Thomas Kline, a Philadelphia lawyer whose client, Victim 5, testified against Sandusky. A football team graduate assistant in 2001, Mike McQueary, has testified that he saw Sandusky and a boy engaged in a sex act in the locker room shower and within days reported it to coach Joe Paterno, Curley and Schultz. However, Curley and Schultz say McQueary never reported that the incident was sexual in nature, and Spanier, in turn, has said Curley and Schultz never told him about any sort of sex abuse of a boy. The three are charged with perjury, obstruction, endangering the welfare of children, failure to properly report suspected abuse and conspiracy.

Coal protest An anti-coal protester is being lead away to the lock up by a Somerset patrolman during a protest at the Brayton Point Power Station in Somerset, Mass., Sunday. Dozens of climate activists were arrested at a rally protesting a coal-fired power plant in Somerset. Forty-four protesters demanding cleaner, alternative fuel sources were arrested at the Brayton Point Power Station and charged with trespassing. Up to 400 activists from across New England and the Northeast gathered at the power plant site. The protest was organized by 350.org Massachusetts.

Court watchers wait to see if ‘Whitey’ Bulger testifies BOSTON (AP) — As lawyers for James “Whitey” Bulger begin to defend him against a massive racketeering indictment charging him in 19 killings, one big question remains: Will he testify? Some lawyers not connected to the case say Bulger has too much baggage to testify, including a prior criminal record and a long reputa-

tion as an organized crime figure. But others say Bulger’s case is different because, at age 83, he knows he is likely to spend the rest of his life in prison and may be more interested in settling scores than being acquitted. Bulger said as much in letters he wrote to a friend from prison after he was captured in Santa

Monica, Calif., following 16 years on the run as one of the nation’s most-wanted fugitives. Bulger told his friend he wanted to set the record straight on two fronts: First, he was not an FBI informant, as prosecutors and many witnesses at the trial have claimed, and second, he did not kill women, according to a book called “Whitey

Bulger: America’s Most Wanted Gangster and the Manhunt That Brought Him to Justice” written by Boston Globe reporters Shelley Murphy and Kevin Cullen. “This whole trial is an effort on his part to overcompensate for his informant label,” said Boston attorney Anthony Cardinale, who helped expose the corrupt relation-

ship between the FBI and Bulger while he represented former New England Mob boss Francis “Cadillac Frank” Salemme. “He’s doing anything he can to have some shred of a reputation left,” Cardinale said. But despite the impulse to want to rebut testimony that he ratted on the Mafia and members of his own gang, Bulger would open

himself up to even more damaging evidence if he decides to take the witness stand, Cardinale said. He said prosecutors could then bring in evidence that when he was charged in a string of bank robberies in the 1950s, he ratted out his co-defendants in that case. “He would be a grease spot on the floor after cross-examination,” Cardinale said.
