Alcorn Narcotics Unit makes 20 arrests BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn Narcotics Unit reports 20 drug arrests following a lengthy investigation. “Over the past few months Alcorn Narcotics Unit has been working on complaints regarding street level drug dealing which has neighbors upset about the violence and shootings involved,” said Narcotics Unit Officer Darrell Hopkins. Several Alcorn County residents have called the Sheriff’s Department stating how they are upset about open drug dealing in their neighborhoods. “Along with the drug dealing are fights and shootings, which put a lot of innocent people at risk,” said Hopkins. During the investigation, narcotics officers have purchased cocaine, marijuana, several kinds of pills and methamphetamine. Officers from the Alcorn
Narcotics Unit, Alcorn deputies and Corinth Police officers have arrested many people on drug charges at this stage of the investigation, several of which were already on probation for various crimes. “Also, when dealing drugs, there are several victims involved,” Hopkins pointed out, “such as the person addicted, their families, the people whose home they break into and the people they rob and murder to get money so they can purchase more drugs.” Sheriff Charles Rinehart wishes to thank the public for standing up and calling in regards to the complaints. “We are still working on several more complaints,” the sheriff said. “So, if you want to call in drug trafficking — or any other crime — please call the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Department. It is a good feeling to know that so many people in
Alcorn County care and want to get involved by leaving tips. It has helped our department tremendously.” Rinehart would also like to thank the Corinth Police officers who assisted in the roundup. Those arrested in the investigation include: ■ Farris Stanley Lowery, 53, Brekinridge Street, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance. ■ Jeremy Jerome Walker, 26, Childs Street, Corinth; sale of a controlled substance. ■ Christopher Shamar Rogers, 25, West Harris Circle, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance. ■ Silvia Mae Martin, 27, East 2nd Street, Corinth; conspiracy to sell a controlled substance. ■ Brandon Adam Pendergrass, 22, County Road 246, Iuka; conspiracy to sell a controlled substance.
■ John Anthony Kwiatkowski, 21, Smith Bridge Road, Corinth; conspiracy to sell a controlled substance. ■ Junior Gregory Keeton, 51, South John Street, Corinth; sale of a controlled substance. ■ Joseph Eugene Wilson, 25, Catalpa Drive, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance and two counts child endangerment. ■ Ricky Gene Hughley, 32, Main Street, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance. ■ John William Franks, 19, County Road 200, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance. ■ Corrico Calvez Campbell, 29, Proper Street, Corinth; two counts sale of a controlled substance. ■ Justin Blake Brown, 22, County Road 253, Glen; sale of a controlled substance. ■ Clarence Harvey Jr., 25,
Guard hosts ham radio training
Grand jury indicts 21 BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
This weekend the Mississippi State Guard will host a ham radio training session at the Crossroads Arena Convention Center. Amateur (also called ham) radio is the use of designated radio frequency spectrum for private recreation, emergency communication and other noncommercial purposes. The training session is open to the public and free of charge. It is organized by the Mississippi State Guard as a yearly opportunity to train and certify its members in radio operation, explained Mississippi State Guard Plans and Operations Officer Col. Douglas Hayhurst. The Guards use their radio training for emergency communication during natural disasters and other scenarios when traditional communication may be disrupted. The class and certification

Elks Lodge donates to Hope Dream Center BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
A local civic organization has contributed — in a big way — to the cause of making the Hope Dream Center a reality. The Corinth Elks Lodge recently donated $2,000 to the center. The donation comes at a time the center is raising money to install a fire sprinkler system in order to meet the city fire codes. The donation came during the June 7 meeting of the Hope Dream Center’s board of directors. “We were in the center for a board meeting, trying to figure out how to raise the money,” said board member Mike Stewart. “We were praying to God to find a way to get the money.”
After the prayer, the board members heard a knock on the door. A lady walked in and asked if she had found the Hope Dream Center. Then she asked if a $2,000 donation would help. “Suddenly a cheerful giver — our angel — by the name of Brenda Wood, secretary for the Corinth Elks Lodge, came in with an unbelievable donation,” recalled board member Monica Sorrell. “The entire board jumped up and shouted for joy, shouting this is truly a miracle.” The donation brings the center halfway to their goal of providing a place for homeless women and their children. With the $26,000 sprinkler system in place, the

will be led by volunteer instructor and examiner Danny Ozbirn, a ham radio hobbyist who retired after working many years in the telecommunications industry. Ozbirn is certified through the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) — the national association for amateur radio. Training begins Saturday at 8:30 a.m. and continues until approximately 3 p.m. Certification testing will be conducted on Sunday.
The Mississippi State Guard is the constitutionally authorized state defense force of Mississippi and is on an equal constitutional basis with the Mississippi Army National Guard and the Mississippi Air National Guard. It is an all-volunteer organization tasked with supplementing the forces of the Mississippi Army National Guard and/or Air National Guard upon order of the governor or the state adjutant general. Its primary mission is to assist in cop-
ing with any man-made or natural disaster. Northeast Mississippi’s State Guard volunteers are part of the Second Brigade Battalion, with the 214 MP Company based in Corinth. The Corinth company is comprised of approximately 20 members. While most State Guard volunteers are retired military or law enforcement officers, the organization is open to anyone who wants to serve. For more information visit msstateguard.org.

The Tishomingo County Sheriff’s Department is also attempting to locate several other subjects who have indictments that have not been served. ■ In other Tishomingo County news, Gregory C. Harris, 50, of Iuka, was killed in a motorcycle accident on County Road 255 near the Country Club. The accident happened around 7:30 p.m. on Sunday. Deputy Lindsey Timbes responded to the accident in which Harris was transported from the scene to Iuka Hospital. He was later transported to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo, where he died from the injuries on Monday.
tian facility opens up new challenges for the center’s founders. “We’re working real hard to get this thing done, and because we don’t have a perpetual income, we need donations,” Stewart explained. “Because we’re not taking federal money, we can get these people to go to Bible study. If we took federal money, we couldn’t do that.” The Hope Dream Center board wishes to thank everyone in the community who have helped in the effort to get the facility up to code and ready to take in homeless women and their children. “We would like to thank
everyone for all the donations received for the Hope Dream Center. Although it would take time to name every business and individual that has given donations of any kind, we hope that you know that we appreciate every donation received for our women’s shelter,” said Sorrell. “May God bless you and keep you.” Tax deductible donations to the can be mailed to: Hope Dream Center Mission of Corinth MS, 1223 Tate Street, Corinth, MS 38834.

Hope Dream Center will be able to open its doors to the community’s most vulnerable members. “Once we get a sprinkler, we’ll be able to put them up in case their house burns down — or whatever reason — and take care of them for a short time until they get back on their feet,” said Stewart. “We house them, we feed them, we clothe them and get them back on their feet.” Because the Dream Center is a non-denominational Christian facility, the women and children will also receive spiritual guidance.

Coastal people not ready for hurricane There’s no place for complacency during hurricane season, yet state and local emergency managers are concerned that nearly seven years after Hurricane Katrina, the Coast is letting its guard down. If people would do what they’re asked to do, said Robert Latham, director of the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, a hurricane would still be destructive, but not nearly as deadly. At the top of the list is preparedness. And you cannot be prepared if you wait until threatened to decide what to do about evacuating. Every individual, family, institution and business should develop an evacuation plan, because sometimes staying put is not an option, at least for those who want to survive. Even if staying on the Coast is an option, you should do so fully aware that for 72 hours or longer you may be without outside assistance. No emergency personnel or facilities. No power, fuel or food except what you have made allowances for — assuming your supplies survive the storm. When a violent weather system approaches, the adage is: run from water, hide from wind. But after a storm passes, there may be no way to run or hide from the heat and humidity and the lack of necessities and services. An acute sense of isolation and insecurity was another legacy of Katrina. Rupert Lacy, emergency manager in Harrison County, believes businesses ought to lead the way when it comes to planning for storm season. “If we can get the businesses to have a plan, it filters down to the employees and then to the families,” he said. Latham agreed. If businesses decide as part of their plan if and when they’ll close, that helps employees decide what to do, he said. “If people do what we ask them to do, then all government would have to do is clean up the mess,” Latham said. “There’s no reason for people to die in a hurricane.” — The Sun Herald, Biloxi
Sound Off City’s finances need to be published monthly What doesn’t the City of Corinth publish in the newspaper once a month its city finances just like the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors? I would also like to see the finances of The Alliance and Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau published on a regular basis. Both have taxes or government funds in their budgets. I would especially like to see administrative costs and salaries published in the newspaper of all these groups. This way, the taxpayers of Corinth would know how their tax money is being spent.

Immigration ploy meant to help Obama President Obama’s latest political ploy — granting new “rights” out of thin air, by Executive Order, to illegal immigrants who claim that they were brought into the country when they were children — is all too typical of his short-run approach to the country’s long-run problems. Whatever the merits or demerits of the Obama immigration policy, his Executive Order is good only as long as he remains president, which may be only a matter of months after this year’s election. People cannot plan their lives on the basis of laws that can suddenly appear, and then suddenly disappear, in less than a year. To come forward today and claim the protection of the Obama Executive Order is to declare publicly and officially that your parents entered the country illegally. How that may be viewed by some later administration is anybody’s guess. Employers likewise cannot rely on policies that may be here today and gone tomorrow, whether these are temporary tax rates designed to look good at election time or temporary immigration policies that can backfire later if employers get accused of hiring illegal immigrants. Why hire someone, and
invest time and money in training them, if you may be forced to fire them before Thomas a year has Sowell passed? Kicking the Hoover Institution can down the road is one of the favorite exercises in Washington. But neither in the economy nor in their personal lives can people make plans and commitments on the basis of government policies that suddenly appear and suddenly disappear. Like so many other Obama ploys, his immigration ploy is not meant to help the country, but to help Obama. This is all about getting the Hispanic vote this November. The principle involved -- keeping children from being hurt by actions over which they had no control -is one already advanced by Senator Marco Rubio, who may well end up as Governor Romney’s vice-presidential running mate. The Obama Executive Order, which suddenly popped up like a rabbit out of a magician’s hat, steals some of Senator Rubio’s thunder, so it is clever politics. But clever politics is what has gotten this country into
so much trouble, not only as regards immigration but also as regards the economy and the dangerous international situation. When the new, and perhaps short-lived, immigration policy is looked at in terms of how it can be administered, it makes even less sense. While this policy is rationalized in terms of children, those who invoke it are likely to do so as adults. How do you check someone’s claim that he was brought into the country illegally when he was a child? If Obama gets reelected, it is very unlikely that illegal immigrants will really have to prove anything. The administration can simply choose not to enforce that provision, as so many other immigration laws are unenforced in the Obama administration. If Obama does not get reelected, then it may not matter anyway, when his Executive Order can be gone after he is gone. Ultimately, it does not matter what immigration policy this country has, if it cannot control its own borders. Whoever wants to come, and who has the chutzpah, will come. And the fact that they come across the Mexican border does not mean that they are all Mexicans. They can just as easily be terrorists from
the Middle East. Only after the border is controlled can any immigration policy matter be seriously considered, and options weighed through the normal Constitutional process of Congressional hearings, debate and legislation, rather than by presidential short-cuts. Not only is border control fundamental, what is also fundamental is the principle that immigration policy does not exist to accommodate foreigners but to protect Americans -- and the American culture that has made this the world’s richest, freest and most powerful nation for more than a century. No nation can absorb unlimited numbers of people from another culture without jeopardizing its own culture. In the 19th and early 20th century, America could absorb millions of immigrants who came here to become Americans. But the situation is entirely different today, when group separatism, resentment and polarization are being promoted by both the education system and politicians.

Republicans embracing dangerous Marxist philosophy Our long national nightmare is over. Mitt Romney has won the Republican nomination for president. Let the etch-a-sketching begin. Romney was officially put over the top by the Texas primary last month, although in truth his victory had been a foregone conclusion ever since Rick Santorum (remember him?) packed it in weeks before. His task now is to persuade moderates and independents that he’s not as crazy as he’s sounded so far, while simultaneously convincing the Republican right wing that he is. It’s not an easy task, but it’s one he’s well suited to. Pick your issue -- health care, abortion, gay rights, immigration, gun control, Planned Parenthood, Libya -- and at one time or another Romney has been on two sides of it. Sometimes three. It’s likely, however, he’ll try to finesse the question of what he’s for in favor of attacking the incumbent. President Barack Obama just can’t seem to do anything right, according to Mitt. He’s too soft on Russia and China, too hard on Israel, too mean to business, and too nice to unions.

R o m n e y admits the economy is getting better, but he thinks that’s d e s p i t e Donald Obama’s polKaul icies rather than because Other Words of them. “Obamacare” is a terrible idea. Romney would get rid of it on “Day One” of his presidency. Oh yes, he would also cut the deficit and lower the price of gas, all the while spending more on the military without raising taxes. In other words, Romney isn’t running for president. He’s running for Magicianin-Chief. So far it seems to be working pretty well for him. He’s nearly even with Obama in the polls and the election is five months away. Anything can happen. I must admit, I don’t quite get it. The Republican Party has turned its back on immigrants, gays, blacks, Latinos, unions and women. Who’s left? Most white guys, I suppose. Homophobes, women threatened by feminism, people who don’t believe in the separa-
tion of church and state, and those who don’t believe in evolution or global warming. Rich people. It puts me in mind of the passage from Huckleberry Finn where one con man says to the other: “Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?” I suppose both candidates will, at some point or other, announce that this is the most important election of our lifetime. Presidential candidates always say that. It’s not. Campaign rhetoric always overstates the power of the president, who is hostage to events beyond his control. If the European Union goes down, for example, we go down with it, regardless of who’s residing in the White House. And that doesn’t even factor in the dangers of Marxism embraced by Republicans in Congress. I mean the philosophy Groucho espoused, of course. Our Republican legislators resemble nothing so much as the faculty of Huxley College in the 1932 Marx brothers film “Horse Feathers.” The opening scene features Groucho Marx as Quincy Ad-

This could be an historic election if the electorate were to rise up and throw the Republicans out into the middle of the street, but I can’t see it happening. And even then, we’d still be left with Democrats, who look good only when compared to Republicans. The election is less than five months away. A new nightmare begins.

State Drainage problems plague Starkville STARKVILLE (AP) — City officials will ask the government to approve a plan to fix drainage problems in a northwest Starkville neighborhood. The Starkville Daily News reports that the board of aldermen authorized the city engineer to pursue Federal Emergency Management Agency approval for a Carver Drive channel restoration project. Local residents have complained that sewage backs up into their yards. Carver Drive is surrounded by a drainage ditch that acts as a catch area for the drainage basin of northwest Starkville. For years, the problems there have been a topic of discussion for residents and city officials. Officials said Tuesday funding will be only be authorized if FEMA approval is given to project. In City Engineer Edward Kemp’s October 2011 cost summary for
Carver Drive drainage improvement options, channel restoration had a price tag of $175,000 — the least expensive option of 10. If FEMA approves, the storm water channel restoration would extend 500 feet from the intersection of Carver and Hiwassee Drive. Alderwoman Sandra Sistrunk said storm channel restoration was the best option because it is cost effective and consistent with similar projects the board has voted on previously.

Picayune gets funds for streetscapes PICAYUNE (AP) — The city of Picayune has received $160,000 to beautify its downtown. The Mississippi Department of Transportation made the presentation of the check Tuesday. The city will use the money for landscaping and planters, decorative lighting, street signs, a water fountain, benches and litter bins. Picayune will provide a 20 percent match.
Prisoner tells officials he’s at peace PARCHMAN (AP) — A former butcher convicted of dismembering a man told prison officials just hours before his scheduled execution Wednesday that he has made peace with God and is remorseful for his crimes. Gary Carl Simmons Jr. waspronounced dead at 6:16 p.m. CDT for the August 1996 killing of Jeffery Wolfe, whose body was found in pieces in a Jackson County bayou. Simmons also was convicted of kidnapping and raping Wolfe’s friend and sentenced to life on those charges. Corrections Commissioner Chris Epps said during a news conference at the Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman that Simmons was somber and not talkative. “He said he made peace with God and that he was remorseful,� Epps said. Simmons requested a last meal that included pizza, french fries and

strawberry ice cream. Epps said Simmons has had 60 serious rule violations since being put in the prison in 1997, a “very unusual and astronomical� number of infractions that include threatening to kill a guard and throwing hot water on a prison staff member.

Immigration roiling presidential contest ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — No longer a backburner issue, immigration is roiling the presidential contest as President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney seek to court the nation’s swelling Hispanic population. The outcome could influence political battle lines and shape American politics for generations. By week’s end, both candidates will address the same Latino political convention in Florida, showcasing contrasting political ideologies at a pivotal time. The Supreme Court is about to render judgment on a get-tough Arizona law, and just last week the Democratic president announced plans to ease deportation rules for some children of illegal immigrants.

With Election Day less than five months away, Hispanic voters are energized and paying close attention, said Arturo Vargas, executive director of the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, which hosts this week’s convention. “There’s a lot at stake. We’re talking about a significant share of the American electorate that could well decide this election,” Vargas said. “It’s only now that both candidates are turning their attention to the Latino vote.” Indeed, both sides are crafting aggressive strategies to appeal to a demographic that is by no means monolithic but has supported Democrats in

recent elections. Some Republicans fear — and Democrats hope — that Obama could capitalize on this moment to help solidify Hispanic voters as predominantly Democratic this fall and for years to come, much as President Lyndon Johnson hardened the black vote for Democrats as he pushed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The stakes are high not only for states with larger Hispanic populations such as Florida, Nevada and Colorado, but for a growing number of other battlegrounds — Ohio, North Carolina and Virginia, among them — where even a modest shift among Latino voters could be significant. The United States’ Latino population surged from about 35 million in 2000 to 50 million in 2010, according to the Census Bureau.
Police on lookout for candy bandit LORAIN, Ohio (AP) — Police in northern Ohio are trying to identify a candy thief who has stolen hundreds of dollars in peanut butter cups from a gas station store. Employees reported that a young man usually comes in after midnight, snatches Reese’s peanut butter cups and exits the store before they can call police. The workers say the candy stolen over the past few months was worth $400 to $600. The Morning Journal reports the latest theft happened early Tuesday morning. A police report indicates the man stole peanut butter cups and went for a saltier snack, grabbing a bag of chips. He was dressed in black clothing, with a hooded sweatshirt over his head. A clerk says he tried to stop the thief, who spun him around and fled on foot.
No free beer, but price remains $1 KODIAK, Alaska (AP) — It turns out, there is no such thing as a free beer, at least on Era Alaska flights. The airline had been offering a free 6-ounce beer to adult passengers. KMXT reports the airline discontinued the program Tuesday as a courtesy to the state, which prohibits free alcohol from being used as a marketing tool. However, there is no federal law against it once planes are airborne. The airline will now charge $1 for each glass of Denali Brewing Co.’s “Single Engine Red.” Previously, the first beer was free and every beer thereafter was $3. The beer is available on the airline’s Dash 8 routes between Anchorage and Fairbanks, Deadhorse, Homer and Kodiak. The promotion is scheduled to run through June but may be extended.

Authorities say the 47-year-old woman’s car got stuck at the Whitinsville Golf Club in Northbridge on Monday. She

AMA supports obesity education for kids CHICAGO (AP) — The American Medical Association on Wednesday put its weight behind requiring yearly instruction aimed at preventing obesity for public schoolchildren and teens. The nation’s largest physicians group agreed to support legislation that would require classes in causes, consequences and prevention of obesity for first through 12th graders. Doctors will be encouraged to volunteer their time to help with that under the new policy adopted on the final day of the AMA’s annual policymaking meeting. Another new policy adopted Wednesday says the AMA supports the idea of using revenue from taxes on sugarsweetened sodas as one way to help pay for obesity-fighting programs. But the group stopped short of fully endorsing such taxes. Some doctors think soda taxes would disproportionately hurt the poor and disadvantaged. Others said taxes shouldn’t be used to force people to make healthful decisions they should be making on their own. Doctors at the meeting shared sobering statistics and personal stories in urging the AMA to sharpen its focus on obesity prevention. “I can’t tell you the number of 40-pound 1-yearolds I see every day,” Dr. Melissa Garretson, a Stephensville, Texas pediatrician, told the delegates before Wednesday’s vote. She said requiring obesity education “is a great idea.” The measure was drafted by the AMA’s Pennsylvania delegation. It cited data showing that more than 300 million people worldwide are obese and said requiring nutrition education to prevent obesity has never been proposed. Obesity affects more than one-third of U.S. adults and almost one in five children, or more than 12 million kids. Recent evidence suggests those numbers may have stabilized, but doctors say that’s small consolation when so many people are still too fat.
Romney stays mum on Rubio’s status WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney is staying mum on whether Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, a rising star in Republican politics, has been cut from his short list of potential running mates. The presumptive GOP presidential nominee told Fox News on Tuesday that “a number of people are being vetted,” but that only two people — he and a senior adviser — know who’s on the list. “Even Ann doesn’t know,” Romney said of
his wife. “We talk about the possible people that I might select. But in terms of actually who is being vetted, that is something only two people know. And Beth Myers doesn’t talk.” The comments came amid reports by ABC News and The Washington Post that the charismatic Rubio isn’t being vetted for vice president. The news distracted from Tuesday’s release of Rubio’s memoir and the final day of Romney’s six-state bus tour, which ended in Michigan Tuesday. The Florida Democratic Party pounced on the flap, blasting a message to reporters titled: “Rubio fails preliminary review in Veepstakes.” Asked about the reports during an appearance on Fox News, Rubio also refused to weigh in. “I’m not commenting on the vice presidential process,” he said. “That’s been basically what we’ve said the whole time because, out of respect for Gov. Romney, the last thing he needs is to have to be addressing questions about this because really the campaign’s not about that.” Rubio’s exclusion from Romney’s short list would disappoint some conservative activists, but would not come as a complete surprise. While he offers obvious political benefits as a Hispanic leader from the swing state of Florida, Romney advisers have consistently said that he would give preference to those candidates with the greatest experience and ability to lead the nation on Day One. It’s a reflection both of Romney’s philosophy and lessons from the selection of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin four years ago as the GOP running mate. A former state lawmaker, Rubio, 41, has served in the Senate for less than two years.
Poll: Just a third favor Obama health care law WASHINGTON (AP) — Just a third of Americans back President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul on which the Supreme Court is about to pass judgment, a new poll finds. But there is overwhelming support among both supporters and opponents for Congress and the president to begin work on a new bill if the high court strikes down the twoyear-old law. The overall level of support for the law is relatively unchanged in recent months, with 47 percent opposing it. But an Associated Press-GfK poll shows that only 21 percent of independents approve of the law, a new low in AP-GfK polling. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on the 2010 law in the next week or so. Most of the law’s major changes aimed at extending health insurance to more than 30 million Americans who now lack coverage have yet to take effect, including the requirement that most people have health insurance or pay a penalty. The insurance mandate has been among the least popular aspects of the law.

Economists are anticipating that fewer Americans filed for unemployment aid last week. The latest weekly tally of applications for unemployment benefits is due out today. Claims have been up and down in recent weeks, suggesting hiring remains sluggish. But the four-week average, a less volatile measure, has been rising. It hit 382,000 two weeks ago, the highest in six weeks.

Flight to safety You wouldn’t guess there’s much trouble overseas based on the e nds money moving into mutual funds that invest in foreign stocks. Investors deposited a net $27.6 billion into foreign stock funds through May. Meanwhile, they’ve withdrawn a net $7.4 billion from U.S. stock funds, despite the relatively strong performance of the U.S. market et this year – the Standard & Poor’s ’ 500 index is up 7.8 percent. Even so, many fund shareholders are exercising more caution. Taking a closer look at where the money is going, it’s clear that investors are being selective. The top-selling international stock fund category so far this year is global asset allocation funds. These funds, which invest in a mix of stocks and bonds from around the world, took in $20 billion in net deposits, according to industry consultant
Strategic Insight. When markets become turbulent, managers of these funds turbul can adjust their portfolios by ca buying more bonds and selling stocks, thus reducing risk. Emerging markets mutual funds, which invest in developing economies like those of the “BRIC� countries – Brazil, Russia, India and China – are also attracting investors. These att ffunds d have taken in a net $12 billion this year. “The emerging markets don’t have the debt hangovers that we have in the U.S. and Europe,� says Loren Fox, senior research analyst at Strategic Insight. The European debt crisis will continue to weigh on global markets. Europe’s leaders are grasping for ideas to halt their government debt crisis ahead of a series of top-level meetings over the next 10 days. Investors will be watching closely.

Drugstore operator Rite Aid closed out its 2012 fiscal year with a smaller loss than a year earlier. That was progress, considering the company has posted a string of quarterly losses dating back to 2007. But the company’s quarterly losses have been narrowing and its revenue has improved. Wall Street is expecting Rite Aid’s fiscal first quarter results today will show its loss narrowed again.

Home sales slowing? The National Association of Realtors releases May data on sales of previously occupied homes today. Sales have been inconsistent so far this year. They jumped in January to the highest pace in nearly two years, but then declined slightly the next two months. Sales rose in April to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.62 million, but remain below the nearly 6 million that most economists equate with healthy markets.

BCS commissioners work on plan BY RALPH D. RUSSO Associated Press
CHICAGO — Mike Slive of the Southeastern Conference wants to come away from the latest BCS meetings with his fellow commissioners ready to pitch a four-team playoff to the university presidents. The leaders of the 11 other major college football leagues and Notre Dame’s athletic director were back in Chicago on Wednesday for another round of talks about creating two national semifinals that would lead to a title game. This is the sixth formal meeting this year on the future of the Bowl Championship Series, and the second in Chi-
cago in about a week. “I expect we’ll continue to make good progress on the four-team playoff,” Slive said before the meeting started. “We’d like to get as far as we need to get to make a comprehensive presentation to our presidents next week.” Slive told reporters the commissioners don’t need to complete every detail of a plan for a new postseason before they break up on Thursday, echoing what Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany told reporters earlier. “My hope is that we come out with a consensus on a four-team playoff model and what it looks like,” Slive said.
The BCS Presidential Oversight Committee meets Tuesday in Washington, but Delany said that, too, is unlikely to be the final stage in this process. “I expect direction from the presidents rather than closure,” Delany said. Some talk of a so-called “plus-one” has crept back into the conversations about the future of college football’s postseason since the April meetings in Florida, when for the first time the commissioners all acknowledged that a four-team playoff was the way they were headed. The “plus-one” is different from the current system in that the
championship game matchup is set after the major bowl games are played. But there are no semifinals, so it’s not a four-team playoff, something Slive has wanted for years. Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott mentioned in May the plus-one was still an option, and the Big Ten presidents said they preferred it over a playoff. Ultimately, though, it appears that was more posturing and positioning than anything else. The goal of these meetings is to work through the details of a playoff plan: where and when the games will be Please see BCS | 9

Jason Heyward (right) of the Atlanta Braves greets Dan Uggla (26) at the plate after Uggla scored on Heyward’s eighthinning, two-run home run during Wednesday’s game at Yankee Stadium in New York. It was Heyward’s second homer of the game as Atlanta survived a 10-5 slugfest.
Heyward helps power Braves over Yanks BY HOWIE RUMBERG Associated Press
NEW YORK — Jason Heyward hit two of a record nine homers at the new Yankee Stadium and the Atlanta Braves outslugged the New York Yankees for a 10-5 victory in the sweltering heat Wednesday. Freddie Freeman, Martin Prado, Heyward and David Ross all connected off Phil Hughes (7-6) to build a 6-1 lead on a sticky, 94-degree afternoon. Michael Bourn stole what might’ve been another home run from Jayson Nix after
missing an earlier opportunity for a try at a leaping grab. Alex Rodriguez hit his 640th career homer, and Robinson Cano, Derek Jeter and Eric Chavez all hit long balls against Tommy Hanson (8-4). The Yankees managed little else in their second straight loss after a 10-game winning streak. The Yankees got within a run at 6-5 on Curtis Granderson’s RBI single in the seventh but Rodriguez ended the inning with a double-play grounder. In the eighth, Freeman hit an RBI single and Heyward a
two-run shot off Boone Logan to help Atlanta pull away for its third win in 10 games and second straight against New York. The Yankees swept the Braves in Atlanta last week. Even though he didn’t start in a day game after playing Tuesday night, Chipper Jones still was a factor early. In the final year of a Hall of Fameworthy career, Jones was honored before his last regular-season game against the Yankees. On behalf of the organization, Jeter and former Braves teammate Andruw Jones gave Chipper third base from Tuesday’s game. In 19
years with Atlanta, Chipper Jones faced the Yankees in two World Series. Bourn singled leading off and, with two outs, stole second without a throw. He scored on Dan Uggla’s single to left. Freeman wasted no time, connecting on the first pitch he saw a for two-run drive into the New York bullpen in right-center to make it 3-0. All season Hughes has been hurt by the homer, giving up at least one in each of his first 12 starts before keeping the ball in the park in his previous outing.
Defense rests without Sandusky’s testimony BY MARK SCOLFORO AND GENARO C. ARMAS Associated Press
BELLEFONTE, Pa. — Jerry Sandusky’s lawyers finished putting on their case Wednesday without calling the former Penn State assistant football coach to the stand to rebut child sex abuse allegations that could put him in prison for the rest of his life. The sudden end to the defense’s presentation came on the seventh day of the trial,
during which the jury heard from eight men — now 18 to 28 — who said the former coach sexually assaulted them after they met him through the charity he founded. Sandusky is charged with 51 criminal counts for alleged abuse of 10 boys over 15 years. He has denied the allegations but acknowledged in interviews following his arrest that he had showered with boys. The accusers described for jurors a range of sexual abuse
at his hands, from allegations of grooming and fondling to oral sex and forced anal sex that one young man said left him injured. The identities of two other alleged victims are unknown to investigators. The defense has suggested the accusers have financial motivations for their claims and were improperly influenced by investigators. They also put on character witnesses who spoke of Sandusky’s sound reputation and his
wife, who said her husband didn’t do anything inappropriate. The defense rested after an approximately 40-minute closed-door meeting involving attorneys, Sandusky and the judge overseeing the case. Under Pennsylvania law, a defendant must waive his right to testify on his own behalf, but it doesn’t have to happen in open court. Please see SANDUSKY | 9
U.S. seeks 5th straight basketball gold medal BY DOUG FEINBERG Associated Press
The U.S. women’s basketball team dominated the Beijing Games, winning by close to 38 points per game while cruising to the gold medal. And this group could be even better. “We have an opportunity to have one of the greatest Olympic teams all-time given the combination of players we have with the depth, experience and youth,” coach Geno Auriemma said. “I have
tremendous respect for every team we’re playing over there and by no means will this be easy at all. I’m focused on trying to make this team maximize the unbelievable potential they have.” It might be difficult for Auriemma to improve on the United States’ recent success. With half the roster made up of his own Connecticut Huskies, they’ll at least be ready for his style. The Americans have won four straight gold medals and
33 consecutive games in the Olympics. Much of the current roster is in its prime now, making it even more likely Auriemma and Co. could reduce the Olympic tournament to a competition for silver. “This is the first time that it’s their time. The last group of veterans was so great with Lisa Leslie, Tina Thompson and Katie Smith and all those guys who played before like Dawn Staley,” Auriemma said. “This is a new era. Their time is now and I want to help
them capture this moment.” The U.S. is led by Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird and Tamika Catchings, who are all trying for a third straight gold medal. Taurasi and Bird starred for Auriemma at Connecticut, helping the school win three consecutive NCAA titles from 2002-04. Joining the trio is a wealth of talent, headlined by Candace Parker, Sylvia Fowles and Seimone Augustus. The Please see GOLD | 9

played and how the teams will be selected. The commissioners have been focusing on ways to keep the major bowls involved as sites for the semifinals, either on a rotating basis or by linking conferences to bowls. There has also been debate over how teams are selected, with Slive supporting a process that simply takes the four highest ranked teams in the nation, regardless of conference, and others leaning more toward emphasizing conference champions. Delany said he’s for a hybrid that would allow a team that doesn’t win its conference to make the playoffs, but could use a league title as a tiebreaker of sorts to separate closely ranked teams. “I’m not so sure that the differences in our views are as significant as some people may have written,” Slive said.
SANDUSKY CONTINUED FROM 8
The next step in the trial is closing arguments, set for Thursday morning. Earlier Wednesday, the defense sought to undercut testimony from a former graduate assistant who told jurors he saw Sandusky sexually abusing a boy inside a football facility shower. Dr. Jonathan Dranov, a family friend of Mike McQueary, said he spoke to McQueary the night McQueary claimed to have seen Sandusky engaging in a sex act with a boy of about 10. Dranov testified that McQueary described hearing “sexual sounds” and seeing a boy in the shower and an arm reach around him and pull him out of view. McQueary said he made eye-contact with the boy and Sandusky later emerged from the showers, Dranov said. That account differs from what McQueary told a grand jury that investigated Sandusky and what he told jurors last week. McQueary testified he saw Sandusky pressing a boy up against the wall inside the shower, and that he had no doubt he was witnessing anal sex. McQueary’s report to his superiors — and Penn State officials’ failure to go to outside law enforcement — is what ultimately led to the firing of longtime coach Joe Paterno. Dranov told the jury that McQueary didn’t provide him with a graphic description of what he saw, but described hearing sounds he considered sexual in nature. “It just seemed to make him upset so I backed off that,” Dranov said. When prosecutors asked Dranov to describe McQueary’s demeanor, he said the former Penn State starting quarterback was clearly upset. “His voice was trembling. His hands were shaking. He was visibly shaken,” Dranov said. McQueary had testified earlier in the trial that he wasn’t “overdescriptive” in his conversation with Dranov, saying he told the doctor that what he saw was sexual, wrong and perverse. The morning also featured testimony from more defense character witnesses, including a couple of participants in Sandusky’s youth charity, The Second Mile. Prosecutors allege that Sandusky met his alleged victims through The Second Mile, which once was lauded for its efforts to help at-risk children. One of the former Second Mile participants, David Hilton, said he felt like investigators were trying to coach him into accusing Sandusky.

APR scores earn postseason bans for 10 basketball teams BY MICHAEL MAROT Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Poor academic scores could create a very different kind of madness in March. A record 10 men’s basketball teams, including three-time national champion Connecticut, will be banned from next season’s NCAA tournament because of sub-par work in the classroom. UConn becomes the first BCS school to face a postseason ban in either of the two most prominent college sports based solely on the annual Academic Progress Rate scores, which were released Wednesday by the NCAA. Each of the schools fell below the mandated cutline of 900 on their four-year scores. The APR measures the classroom performance of every Division I team. This year’s data calculates rates from 2007-08 through 2010-11. Joining the Huskies on the sideline next March will be
Arkansas-Pine Bluff, California-Riverside, Cal State Bakersfield, Jacksonville State, Mississippi Valley State, North Carolina-Wilmington, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, Toledo and Towson. Cal State Bakersfield, which became a full-fledged Division I member in 2010-11 and does not yet have a conference affiliation in basketball, could still be removed from the banned list because some its data is still being evaluated. “I think if a (BCS school) didn’t make it, it would look really bad,” Ohio University professor David Ridpath said last week. Ridpath is also past president of the NCAA watchdog The Drake Group. All the banned teams, including Connecticut, face additional sanctions of losing a minimum of four hours of practice time per week, which must be replaced by academic activities. The penalties could create an
unusual scenario for the seven affected conferences. Not only will UConn and the other teams be ineligible for NCAA play, but league officials could also rule them ineligible for the individual conference tournaments. If that happens, it could force changes in the tourney pairings. Big East presidents have already said any team ineligible for the NCAA tourney will not be allowed to compete in conference tournaments, including UConn. “We’ll have to adjust the bracket accordingly,” Big East associate commissioner for men’s basketball Dan Gavitt said Wednesday, noting the Huskies could still win an appeal to the Committee on Academic Performance. “Until CAP makes that final determination, we’re not going to have any comment. We wouldn’t change the brackets. We would accommodate it in
such a way that it would work. We would just have to eliminate a game and move someone up on the line.” None of this came as a surprise to Connecticut, which had a four-year score of 889 and lost an appeal to the NCAA for a waiver that would have allowed it to play in next year’s tourney. School officials contend that if the NCAA used the team’s two most recent scores, 826 in 2009-10 and 978 in 2010-11, UConn’s two-year score would be 902 and argued that school’s self-imposed changes are already producing better academic results. Other conferences face more uncertainty. Two leagues, the Southwestern Athletic Conference and Colonial Athletic Association, each have two teams facing postseason bans. Four others — the Big West, Mid-American, Ohio Valley and Southland — all have one team on the list.
GOLD CONTINUED FROM 8
three all won gold medals in Beijing. Swin Cash also has an Olympic gold medal on her resume, winning one in 2004. Maya Moore, Lindsay Whalen, Tina Charles, Asjha Jones and Angel McCoughtry will be making their first appearance in the Olympics. All five of the newcomers were part of the team that won the 2010 world championship to secure a spot in London.
The biggest problem for the Americans heading into the Summer Games happened off the court, where an employment discrimination lawsuit was filed against Auriemma, the NBA and USA Basketball on June 11 by a woman who works as an NBA security official. Kelley Hardwick said she was removed from a 2012 Olympics assignment after she spurned an advance from Auriemma. The coach has called the claim “beyond false”
and intends to fight it. The U.S. players don’t expect it to be a distraction in London. “I think because we have great leadership on this team that we’re just going to focus on the task that will be at hand and that’s to prepare to win a gold medal,” Cash said. “You never want to let outside distractions interfere with that and I think that we’ll have the right leadership to make sure that everybody comes to play and is ready to go in London.”
While Auriemma thinks this could be the best American team ever, Taurasi is just hoping for some well-deserved respect. “The men’s team that won gold in 2008 had the mantra of ‘road to redemption.’ We’re on the road to respect,” she said. “A team that’s won four gold medals in a row and we’re still fighting for respect in our own country. I think it’s a little sad. That’s a motivator for all of us in that gym. Our level is so high that it becomes normal.”

Short Hops • L stands for Win? When Lance Lynn and Kyle Lohse start for the St. Louis Cardinals, the Redbirds are in good shape, winning 19-of-27 games. When a pitcher whose name does not begin with L starts, the Cardinals are 15-25. • Jay Bruce of the Cincinnati Reds is 1-for-7 with a pair of walks with the bases loaded this season, but he has driven home 10. His lone hit was a double, but he’s added four sac flies. • There are 21 players who have logged more than 150 plate appearances out of the leadoff spot in the order. Best bet for getting on base? That would be Austin Jackson of the Tigers, who has an OBP of .418. Most home runs? Give yourself bonus points if you knew Boston’s Mike Aviles, with only 152 at-bats in the leadoff spot, led leadoff men with eight home runs this season. More likely candidates would be Jackson and Ian Kinsler, who have seven each.
300-300 Club
Brandon Moss, Oakland The Oakland rightfielder had eight extra-base hits over six games — all wins for the A’s. Moss, who found National League West pitching to his liking, delivered five home runs in a four-game span against Colorado and San Diego. For the week he batted .348 with five homers, 10 RBIs and a 1.530 OPS.
Colby Lewis, Texas The Rangers’ ace dominated in two starts last week with wins over Arizona and in-state rival Houston. Lewis tossed nine innings allowing just four hits with the lone run coming off a solo homer to defeat the Diamondbacks. He followed that effort with seven strong innings of three-hit ball over the Astros. For the week, Lewis struck out 17 in 16 innings while allowing only nine baserunners.
Ryan Braun, Milwaukee It was a tough road trip for the Brewers last week — losing four of six games — but not for Braun. The Brewers’ leftfielder had at least one hit in every game and added four homers and seven RBIs. The reigning MVP had three multi-hit games and slugged .793.
Matt Cain, San Francisco The Giants have won Cain’s last eight starts, but none came in as dramatic fashion as his perfect game last week. The righthander retired all 27 Astros he faced, striking out 14. It was the first perfecto in Giants history and tied Sandy Koufax’s record for 14 Ks in a perfect game. Cain, who leads the National League with a 0.85 WHIP, needed 125 pitches to complete the game. In three June starts, Cain has a 0.38 ERA and 0.63 WHIP.
Gerrit Cole, Pittsburgh The No. 1 overall pick in the 2011 draft has been promoted to Double-A Altoona after 13 starts for the Single-A Bradenton Marauders. In 67 innings Cole has 69 Ks and allowed just 53 hits and 21 walks. He was 5-1 with a 2.55 ERA, and the righthander from UCLA is scheduled to make his Double-A debut this week.
June 21, 1964 While fans at New York’s Shea Stadium were celebrating Father’s Day, there was little on the field for Mets fans to enjoy during the doubleheader with the Philadelphia Phillies. In the opener, Hall of Famer Jim Bunning became the first pitcher to toss no-hitters in both leagues as he pitched a perfect game. In the nightcap, 18-year-old Rick Wise, making his second major league start, earned the first of his 188 wins despite the second baseman, shortstop and third baseman combining for four errors behind Wise.
Matt Cain
Rick Wise made news again, this time throwing a no-hitter himself as the Phillies defeated the Reds at Cincinnati. Wise faced just 28 hitters allowing a walk to Dave Concepcion and struck out three. The righthander also hit two home runs, driving in three of the Phillies’ four runs in the 4-0 win.
Washington at Baltimore Baltimore won two one-run games at Washington — one of them in extra innings — to take the first Beltway Series this season. Ace Stephen Strasburg put the Nats on his back to avoid the sweep. He struck out eight over five innings and left with a 6-3 lead after hitting a solo home run. The Nats are sitting atop the NL East while the Orioles are looking up at the hated Yankees in the AL East.
NY Yankees at NY Mets The Subway Series will always be a bit overhyped, but the Yankees spanked the Mets during their last meeting, beginning the Yanks’ winning streak that reached nine games. The Yankees knocked around Johan Santana as Robinson Cano homered off the lefty on the first two pitches he saw. Mark Teixeira hit a goahead home run in the sixth of the second game, and Russell Martin added a walk-off home run to complete the sweep. Andy Pettitte, Ivan Nova and CC Sabathia will pitch for the Yankees, and Jonathon Niese, Chris Young and R. A. Dickey will throw for the Mets.

Best and Worst MLB Surprises Now that we’re more than two months into the season, it’s fair to assess the biggest surprises and disappointments so far this season. Sure, there is plenty of time for teams to blow leads and for teams to climb all the way through the standings. However, in the next six weeks teams must decide whether they are buyers or sellers at the trade deadline, so now is the time that many teams’ fate for the season will be decided. Here’s a quick look at the surprising and disappointing teams so far this season, the reasons for that, and the possibility of teams turning around.
PLEASANT SURPRISES Baltimore Stuck in the toughest division in baseball, the Orioles were thought to be several years behind their division rivals. But Baltimore’s young position players — most notably Adam Jones and Matt Wieters — are quickly growing into superstars. Jones ranks eighth in the AL in batting average, fifth in home runs and is tied for second in runs. He is a legitimate MVP candidate. But the most surprising play in Baltimore has come from the mound. Starting pitchers Jason Hammel and Wei-Yin Chen are both 7-2 over their first 13 starts. The Orioles are 19-7 with those two aces starting, 20-20 in other games. It’s not likely the Orioles can keep up this pace. Their starting pitching beyond Hammel and Chen is too thin and inexperienced to continue this pace down the stretch. Chicago White Sox It was thought to be a rebuilding year in Chicago this season, but rookie manager Robin Ventura was having none of that. The Sox, a mix of veterans and youngsters, are getting solid contributions from vets Paul Konerko and Jake Peavy, as well as youngsters Chris Sale, Addison Reed

LA Dodgers at LA Angels Just 11 days after their first series ended with the Angels taking two of three at Dodger Stadium, the two Los Angeles clubs will be back at it. In the previous series, all three winning runs were scored in either the eighth or ninth innings, and the same kind of tight, low-scoring games can be expected this weekend.

and Alejandro De Aza. The bullpen leads the AL with 11 blown saves, but since Reed has been the closer, he’s blown just one. It’s certainly conceivable that the Sox can stay in the race. New York Mets The National League East race was supposed to be a four-team heat with the Mets looking up in the standings at all four rivals. But fortunately for manager Terry Collins, his players never believed that, especially starting pitcher R.A. Dickey, who leads the NL with 10 wins. While Dickey continues to baffle NL hitters with a wicked knuckleball, the Mets’ bullpen and lineup around David Wright seem to be working with smoke and mirrors. The Mets will eventually fall out of the race. Pittsburgh We were teased at this time last season when the Pirates were 51-44 on July 19. But the Bucs must have remembered that they hadn’t had a winning season since 1992 and weren’t quite ready to break that string. This
season the Pirates’ pitching has somehow been good enough to carry a punchless offense that is batting .228 and averaging just 3.4 runs per game. While the Pirates are getting better, this lineup isn’t consistent enough to compete for the NL Central title, although this might be the year the losing streak ends.
DISAPPOINTMENTS Boston The Red Sox were expected to contend for one of the wild card spots, if not for the division title. New manager Bobby Valentine hasn’t exactly been a calming influence, and the pitching was horrendous in April digging a hole for the Sox. Boston’s rotation has a 4.79 ERA (only the Royals and Twins are worse in the AL), and hitters the Sox have come to depend on — Dustin Pedroia (.268) and Adrian Gonzalez (.260) — are hitting well below their norms. There doesn’t appear to be enough heart on this team to put together enough winning streaks to jump all four division rivals.
Detroit It doesn’t take more than a quick glance at the AL Central rosters to see that the Tigers should be running away with this division. But a rotation led by 2011 MVP and Cy Young winner Justin Verlander and a bullpen anchored by Jose Valverde, who was perfect with 49 saves last season, hasn’t been able to stay in front of either the Indians or White Sox. The lineup, potentially the most potent in the league, has been merely average. Defensively, the Tigers give away too many runs and must shore up that part of the game in order to take control of the Central. This lineup is too good not to climb back in the hunt. Detroit is in position to add a few pieces and remains the favorite in the AL Central. Philadelphia The five-time NL East champions are slowly watching their string of titles end amid injuries and poor starting pitching. Injured stars Ryan Howard and Chase Utley have begun playing minor league games in their rehab process, and their returns are critical to the Phillies’ chances of getting back in the hunt. They hope to have ace Roy Halladay back for the last month. Don’t expect the Phillies to dominate when completely healthy by any means, but they will be a factor in the NL East race. Arizona Certainly the hot Dodgers have been the biggest reason that the defending NL West champs have not been a factor in 2012, but the D’backs have struggled to score runs. They certainly expected more from starting pitchers Ian Kennedy (5-7) and Daniel Hudson (only seven starts). The Dodgers, with such a deep pitching staff, are just too strong for Arizona to catch.
Grand slams for the Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez, which tied Lou Gehrig for most all-time. The Yankees’ Hall of Famer had held the record all alone since hitting his 17th on July 5, 1934, off Washington’s Lefty Stewart. Runs batted in by Philadelphia’s Jim Thome over a six-game span. He had zero RBIs in his first 14 games of the season.
Over the weekend, Jim Thome of the Philadelphia Phillies became the fourth major leaguer to hit 100 home runs with three different clubs. Can you name the other three?
Blown saves by the New York Mets this season, the higest total in the majors. Starting pitchers for the San Francisco Giants with an ERA below 3.00. And none are named Tim Lincecum. Consecutive games in which the Angels’ Albert Pujols had two hits. It marked the first time in his stellar career that he had more than six multi-hit games in a row. During the seven-game stretch, he had seven doubles, seven RBIs and scored seven runs. At-bats for the Yankees with the bases loaded this season, the most in the majors. New York hitters are batting just .174 in those situations — only the Astros (.170) are worse. ERA for the Yankees’ pitching staff in June. It is more than a run better than the second-best in the American League (Boston, 3.25). Rank (out of 30 teams) for Oakland with 254 runs scored this season. However, the A’s lead the majors with 90 runs so far in June. Athlon Sports
TRIVIA ANSWER: Alex Rodriguez accomplished the feat for Seattle, Texas and the Yankees; Reggie Jackson did it with the A’s, Yankees and Angels; and Darrell Evans hit more than 100 with the Braves, Giants and Tigers. Fred McGriff would have been a good guess. The Crime Dog hit more than 100 with Toronto and Atlanta, but just 99 with Tampa Bay. Dave Kingman came close as well, hitting 100 with Oakland and the Mets, and 94 with the Cubs.
• It may not be as prestigious as Barry Bonds’ 500-500 Club (in which Bonds is the only member), but Carlos Beltran became only the eighth member of the 300-300 Club (300 home runs and 300 stolen bases). Beltran is the only switch-hitter to join the club, but not the most unlikely. In addition to the usual suspects (Willie Mays, Alex Rodriguez, Andre Dawson and Bobby Bonds), Steve Finley and Reggie Sanders are members of the club.
Dodgers Dodgers and opponents batting .239 in June. Yankees Rafael Soriano had five saves during nine-game win streak. Rangers Just one game over .500 since their torrid April. Reds New ace Mat Latos is 5-0 over last 10 starts. Rays Two shutouts and extra-inning loss in series win over Miami. Orioles Tossed back-to-back shutouts at Atlanta. Nationals Swept Red Sox and Blue Jays, then swept by Yankees. Angels D’backs hitters were no match for Halos’ pitching. Braves Losing woes at home continue. Giants Seven games above .500 vs. NL Central. Blue Jays Lost three key starting pitchers to injury in matter of few days. White Sox Won three of nine vs. NL. Mets Lost nine of 10 when not playing the Rays. Marlins 8-14 in April, 21-8 in May and 4-10 in June. Pirates Where would lineup be without Andrew McCutchen? Diamondbacks Entire infield batting .300 or better in June. Cardinals Closer Jason Motte couldn’t preserve series vs. Royals. Indians Pitchers hit .333 in interleague play. Red Sox Big Papi leads Sox in just about every offensive category. Tigers Won two of three in each of three interleague series. Phillies Jim Thome swatted 100th homer for third team. A’s Five different pitchers have saves already this season. Brewers Need to get Rickie Weeks going. Mariners Lowest OBP in the American League. Royals Fewest runs scored in AL. Twins Drawn at least 30,000 to every game at Target Field this year. Astros Lost 16 of 21 — 0-11 when scoring less than five runs. Rockies Were .500 on May 2, now 15 games under. Padres Enjoying interleague play. Cubs Last four saves have come from four different pitchers.
Mets evaluate allowing Dickey to start every 4th day BY MIKE FITZPATRICK Associated Press
NEW YORK — The idea is certainly appealing to the New York Mets: R.A. Dickey on the mound every four days instead of five. Dickey puts less stress on his arm than a conventional pitcher because he features a knuckleball. So he probably needs fewer days of rest between starts. And with Dickey the most dominant force in baseball right now, Mets manager
Terry Collins acknowledged the thought of starting his unlikely ace more often than usual is definitely tempting. “Absolutely,” Collins said Tuesday. “Theoretically, he probably needs three days.” Still, the Mets have no plans to try it at this point, though Collins conceded that if they make the playoffs they’ll have a potential weapon most other teams wouldn’t. “Everything looks great
now — it’s June. Ask him how he felt last September. He was tired,” Collins said. “And the one thing we aren’t going to do is look up in August and have this guy worn out because we’re bringing him back on three days’ rest.” Collins said he and pitching coach Dan Warthen mapped out the whole scenario last month, curious what it would look like for the entire rotation. In the end, they decided to scrap it.
“Maybe we were going to try it for a month to see if it would work,” Collins said. “We just haven’t been brave enough to try it just yet, because I think it just screws up the other guys also. “I was more concerned about the other guys. I’m not really worried about R.A. as much. But I do believe that because it would be such a drastic change, I think he’d fatigue,” the manager said. “I just wanted to see what
it would look like. Dan and I sat down and ran the thing out and didn’t really like the way it looked and the way that it would affect (Dillon) Gee and Jon Niese. So we kind of canned it.” The 37-year-old Dickey (11-1) became the first major league pitcher in 24 years to throw consecutive one-hitters Monday night in New York’s 5-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. He has not yielded an earned run in 422⁄3 innings
and entered Tuesday tied for the major league lead in ERA (2.00), strikeouts (103) and complete games (three). With an uncanny ability to control a knuckleball that he often throws more than 80 mph, harder than virtually anyone else who’s made a living with the pitch, Dickey has an amazing 71 strikeouts and six walks in his last seven starts. He has won six straight outings and nine consecutive decisions.

Freedom from controlling wife is worth divorce cost DEAR ABBY: Over the years you have published letters about the hard work done by wives who stayed at home and advised that husbands should share some of the load. I am a male. When I was married I got up with the kids, made breakfast, packed their lunches, cleaned the kitchen and left for work. I did 90 percent of the grocery shopping and prepared dinner four or five nights a week. On weekends, I cut the grass, trimmed shrubs and repaired whatever needed fixing. I took care of the cars and found time to have fun with the kids. My wife liked late-night TV and was too tired to get up in the morning.
She also loved the morning talk shows and shopping. She did launAbigail dry, but Van Buren I paid for a cleanDear Abby ing lady because vacuuming hurt her back. When I resisted her controlling ways, she would become violent. She was jealous, dependent, possessive and angry. After 29 years, I finally decided to get a life. She got the house, the money, the anger and the dog. And me? I got the happiness! -- FREE MAN IN FLORIDA DEAR FREE MAN:
It is no longer shocking to hear about long marriages being dissolved. In your case, while the financial penalty may be sizable, it appears to have been worth it. When a relationship becomes one-sided and counseling can’t resolve the conflicts, divorce is the answer. Because of the years of domestic abuse you endured, I hope you will consider counseling so your future relationships will not be adversely affected by your long, unhappy marriage. DEAR ABBY: My daughter, “Tammi,” is attending college in a neighboring state. When I text or call her, she doesn’t respond. I have asked her to please just text me

Horoscopes BY HOLIDAY MATHIS On the first full day of the Cancer solar journey of 2012, you may start to wonder whether your house is in order. The clean surfaces of your surroundings are both a reality that brightens your thinking and a symbol that all is well. In the coming weeks, expect to delve into the deeper levels of home and what it means to you. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your creative juices are flowing, which helps you in every area of life. Even seemingly non-creative areas of life will be improved by your imaginative approach. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have an easy way of relating with people, and you’ll fall into a pleasant social groove. A Leo will help you connect with your heart and trust its guidance. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ve been in a powerful cycle, and now you’re ready to rest a bit. You don’t have to have the answers, solve the problems or do much of anything at all. You don’t even have to “be you.” All you have to do is relax. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You can deliberately create joy in any moment, and that’s precisely what you set out to do at the beginning of the day. Anyone who has other plans will find that your joy-mission can’t be derailed. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There is a rule for everything, from eating bread to launching spacecrafts. When in doubt, learn
the rule. You can always break it if you want to. Better to break a learned rule than one you don’t know about. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your friends know you well enough to sense when you’re hiding something, trying to spare their feelings or simply not “into” an activity. It feels great to have people around with whom you can be completely honest. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Highlighted today is a certain longing in your heart that makes you unique. It’s a nameless craving for nothing in particular and everything at once. It’s impossible to describe, and few possess it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Imagination and practicality are qualities that seem sometimes to be at war with each other. But there is a way to make the imaginative and the practical work together. And when it happens, it’s brilliant. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You know where you belong in the big picture, but there are too many options in the little picture for you to be completely sure of how best to spend this day. Trust that you are divinely guided. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Resentment and regret are energy drains that are easily plugged today with a healthy dose of neglect. Refuse to give your attention to the bitter feelings, and they magically heal. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Level with
someone about what you’d really like out of the relationship. Why not have both your needs (SET ITAL) and (END ITAL) your wants met? You deserve to be happy! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You need a break from all the emotional work you’ve been doing lately. Make plans to be near people who are easy to be with. Laughter and breezy conversations are restorative. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 21). You may not feel like you’re on a quest at the start of the year, but you’ll gather information, inspiration and team members in the next seven weeks. By mid-August, your mission is underway. A financial exchange keeps your project rolling and growing through September. December brings family fun. Aries and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 30, 2, 14 and 29. 12 ASTRO-REMEDIES FOR SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS: Inside the energy of each sign is a lesson that can be applied to remedy social awkwardness. Aquarius energy is the most social-minded of the entire zodiac. This is the sign of forwarding human interest and acting for the greater good. The concept of social awkwardness barely exists in the philanthropic energy of Aquarius because the rules go out the window in the special compassion that Aquarius brings. Whatever we do, it’s only human. An interesting progression happens in regard
to social philosophy on this end of the zodiac. The Sagittarius way is to accept our differences and tolerate others. Capricorn adds to the conversation, suggesting that we realize that what makes us different is worth celebrating. Adhering to our particular traditions keeps the diversity alive. Then Aquarius comes along and sweetens the deal. If the world is a better place when we tolerate others and celebrate our own traditions, then a world where we celebrate not only our own traditions but everyone’s traditions could be heaven on Earth. Social awkwardness has no expression from this expansive place in the mind and heart. Maybe that’s why Aquarius natives are usually so adept at making friends. CELEBRITY PROFILES: Happy 30th birthday to Prince William. The heir to the British throne has a most auspicious birthday, as it usually coincides squarely with the summer solstice, which this year happened on June 20, but often falls on the 21st. The “Sun King” has been a ubiquitous symbol of national strength throughout history, literature, art and mythology, and with both his sun and moon in patriotic Cancer, the prince will continue to act in the best interest of the kingdom.

‘Hatfields & McCoys’ Communities cashing in on America’s fascination with Appalachian feud BY BRUCE SCHREINER Associated Press
MATEWAN, W.Va. — More than a century after the last shots were fired in America’s most famous feud, the Hatfields and McCoys mingle peacefully in the mountains they call home, singing together in church choirs, sharing potluck lunches and headlining an ever-growing annual festival. When the two clans that spilled so much blood and buried so many sons decide to tussle now, they do it with a tug of war, not with rifles. When the families tried to outmuscle one another in a recent rope-pulling skirmish, the only volleys fired were playful taunts. The McCoys won the struggle waged across the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River separating West Virginia and eastern Kentucky. The names remain forever linked, but now in a pursuit of commerce. Businesses from a liquor store to a car wash to a restaurant and inn capitalize on the Hatfield-McCoy name. And the fascination with the families’ bloody past may help propel this hardscrabble patch of Appalachia toward a more prosperous future. A three-night miniseries about the feud that spanned much of the last half of the 19th century set basic cable viewing records and sparked renewed interest in the Hatfields and the McCoys, who waged their own cross-border war between West Virginia and Kentucky. The History Channel drama starred Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton as the patriarchs —— William Anderson “Devil Anse� Hatfield in West Virginia and Randolph “Ole Ran’l� McCoy in Kentucky — and drew more than 13.9 million viewers the first night. The finale did even better,
with 14.3 million viewers. A straight-to-DVD starring Christian Slater has just come out. The feud has inspired a spate of new books and television producers are looking for descendants of the oncefeuding families to take part in a reality show that will be filmed in West Virginia. As the backwoods blood feud finds itself in the crosshairs of filmmakers and authors, officials in both states are hoping to transform a century-old spasm of violence into a modern day tourism brand. They offer bus tours of the crucial sites in the feuding that claimed at least a dozen lives by 1888 and catapulted both families into the American vernacular, becoming shorthand to describe bitter rivals. “In my opinion, they are sitting on a gold mine,� said Danny Baines of Kingsport, Tenn., who was visiting feud sites along the winding backroads in the scenic mountain region of the two states. Asked why people are fascinated with the feud, he replied, “I think there’s a little feuding in all of us.� West Virginia Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin said tourism officials in southern West Virginia have been inundated with calls, and websites are getting hundreds of hits. On the Kentucky side, tours of feud sites are filled within hours after being scheduled, said Pike County tourism director Tony Tackett. His office’s website had more than 300,000 hits in two weeks; it normally averaged about 5,500 hits a month. Brochure requests are averaging 300 a day, up from 30 daily. Souvenirs sales have skyrocketed. “We’re just going to roll with it ... hold on tight and market it as well as we can,�
Tackett said. In Matewan, Kathy McCoy operates the Hatfield McCoy Resort-Inn with her husband, Donald. The couple has ties to both families. “Ever since the feud, the Hatfields and the McCoys have been mingling together,� she said, adding that she sees plenty of untapped potential for the region. “We need to jump on it while it’s hot.� Attendance was up this June at the three-day festival held in Matewan and Williamson in West Virginia and in Pike County, Ky. The event featured tours, re-enactments, book signings, arts and crafts and a marathon run. Descendants showed their allegiance by wearing ribbons, red for Hatfields, blue for McCoys. “There’s no reason why this area can’t prosper from this,� said Barry Hatfield, 27, of Stone, Ky., who portrayed his long-distant kinsman Johnson “Johnse� Hatfield, son of Devil Anse, in a re-enactment. “The coal industry is sort of suffering right now.� A history teacher at Mingo Central High School in West Virginia, Hatfield’s blood ties reach all the way back to an uncle of the clan’s patriarch. He began researching the feud when he was in middle school. “We don’t think nothing about it,� he said, adding that he’s even played a McCoy a few times. “We just look at it as history and now entertainment.� The feud officially ended June 14, 2003, when about 60 descendants of the two families gathered in Pikeville, Ky., to sign a truce during the fourth festival. The bus tours on the West Virginia side used to run only during the festival, but additional tours are planned for June along with once-a-month tours
Associated Press
A street sign in Matewan, W.Va., that bears the names of the two families that once waged the country’s most famous feud in this Appalachian region. The street corner is near where members of the two families competed in a tug of war during a recent festival. from July through September because of greater demand, said Natalie Young, executive director of the Tug Valley Chamber of Commerce and the Williamson Convention and Visitors Bureau. The sites feature historical markers that describe the pivotal events. Visitors can see the spot where three McCoys — Tolbert, Pharmer and Randolph Jr., all sons of Ole Ran’l McCoy — were tied to pawpaw trees and shot to death by an unofficial posse organized by Devil Anse Hatfield. He was seeking to avenge the death of his brother, Elliston, at the hands of the McCoys. Many believe the feud was rooted in the Civil War, but the bitterness was perpetuated by disputes over timber rights and even a pig. The tour includes a stop at the site of the trial over the contested swine and at the place where Johnse Hatfield and Rose-
anna McCoy began their ill-fated love affair. Another stop is at their child’s grave. Lisa Alther, author of the book “Blood Feud� about the warring families, said other feuds happened in the Southern Appalachians during that era but none captured the public’s imagination like the Hatfields and McCoys, due partly to its web of compelling plot lines. “It’s partly a culture of honor, where insults can lead to fights and nobody would step down,� she said. “There was too much alcohol for sure, too many guns, possibly too little formal education so people hadn’t learned how to discuss rather than fight.� From an ancestral McCoy home in nearby Kentucky where the family had gathered for the reunion, Elliott McCoy said the hatred and distrust between the families died out long ago.
“I don’t know anybody that would have a bitter feeling toward them,� McCoy, a gospel singer who lives in Nashville, Tenn., said of the Hatfields. “If they did, they wouldn’t be in their right mind.� Descendants on both sides share a pride in their heritage, though they disavow the violent streak. “It’s knowing that you come from a long line of people that didn’t make a lot of right decisions at times, but they thought it was right in their mind, so that’s what they did,� said Michael Maurice Hatfield. “Now I’ve got a short fuse myself, and I understand where it comes from.� On the Web: Pike County Tourism, Convention & Visitors Bureau: http://www.tourpikecounty.com Tug Valley Chamber of Commerce: http://www. tugvalleychamber.com/
