ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Terrin Thomas’ quest to become Miss America ended Sunday night, when she was not selected as one the 15 finalists for the crown. Thomas, 21, of Auburn participated in the weeklong competition as Miss Indiana. Miss New Thomas York, Nina Davuluri, was named Miss America in the scholarship pageant held in Atlantic City, N.J. Thomas enjoyed a moment in the spotlight of Sunday’s national television broadcast of the pageant finals on ABC. As the telecast came out of a commerical break, co-host Lara Spencer stood beside Thomas and asked if she thought she would be one of the last two finalists to be announced.

WATERLOO — Residents in northeast Indiana don’t have to go far to see Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck. He’s been in Waterloo since July and won’t leave until October. Larry Smith, a fourth-generation farmer, turned his corn maze into a 12-acre likeness of the quarterback. Three years ago, Smith and his family transformed a portion of their 450-acre farm into a fall festival area. For six weeks between September and October, the Smith family of Waterloo goes “all hands on deck” to run Amazing Fall Fun. The fall recreation area opens for the season Saturday. The idea came for the maze

Smith is excited to provide something that draws so many people into DeKalb County. He estimates that nearly 10,00012,000 will visit this year’s maze. “I get to meet people from all over,” Smith said. He recalls a British couple who were driving on U.S. 6, noticed a sign and stopped in because they were curious.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Motorists coming off the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge into Washington are treated to a postcard-perfect view of the U.S. Capitol. The bridge itself, however, is about as ugly as it gets: The steel underpinnings have thinned since the structure was built in 1950, and the span is pocked with rust and crumbling concrete. District of Columbia officials were so worried about a catastrophic failure that they shored up the horizontal beams to prevent the bridge from falling into the Anacostia River. And safety concerns about the Douglass bridge, which is used by more than 70,000 vehicles daily, are far from unique. An Associated Press analysis of 607,380 bridges in the most recent federal National Bridge Inventory showed that 65,605 were classified as “structurally deficient” and 20,808 as “fracture critical.” Of those, 7,795 were both — a combination of red flags that experts say indicate significant disrepair and similar risk of collapse. A bridge is deemed fracture critical when it doesn’t have redundant protections and is at risk of collapse if a single, vital component fails. A bridge is structurally deficient when it is in need of rehabilitation or replacement because at least one major component of the span has advanced deterioration or other problems that lead inspectors to deem its condition poor or worse. Engineers say the bridges are safe. And despite the ominous
claims political victory AP
Cracked concrete exposes parts of reinforcement bars on the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge which spans the Anacostia River in Washington. The bridge, which carries more than 70,000 vehicles a day, was designed to last 50 years. It’s now 13 years past its life expectancy.
sounding classifications, officials say that even bridges that are structurally deficient or fracture critical are not about to collapse. The AP zeroed in on the Douglass bridge and others that fit both criteria — structurally deficient and fracture critical. Together, they carry more than 29 million drivers a day, and many were built more than 60 years ago. Those bridges are located in all 50 states, plus Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia, and include the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, a bridge on the New Jersey highway that leads to the Lincoln Tunnel, and the Main Avenue Bridge in Cleveland. The number of bridges nationwide that are both structurally
deficient and fracture critical has been fairly constant for a number of years, experts say. But both lists fluctuate frequently, especially at the state level, since repairs can move a bridge out of the deficient categories while spans that grow more dilapidated can be put on the lists. There are occasional data-entry errors. There also is considerable lag time between when state transportation officials report data to the federal government and when updates are made to the National Bridge Inventory. Many fracture critical bridges were erected in the 1950s to 1970s during construction of the interstate highway system because they were relatively cheap and easy to build.

LYONS, Colo. (AP) — The cars that normally clog Main Street in Lyons on the way to Rocky Mountain National Park have been replaced by military supply trucks. Shop owners in Estes Park hurriedly cleared their wares in fear that the Big Thompson River will rise again. A plywood sign encouraged residents mucking out their homes to “Hang in there.” Days of rain and floods have transformed the outdoorsy mountain communities in Colorado’s Rocky Mountain foothills affectionately known “The Gore-Tex Vortex” from a paradise into a disaster area with little in the way of supplies or services — and more rain falling Sunday. The string of communities from Boulder to Estes Park, the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park, is a base for backpackers and nature lovers where blue-collar and yuppie sensibilities exist side by side. Now, roadways have crumbled, scenic bridges are destroyed, the site of the bluegrass festival is washed out and most shops are closed. Chris Rodes, one of Lyons’ newest residents, said the change is so drastic that he is considering moving away just two weeks after settling there.

BEIRUT (AP) — A high-ranking Syrian official called the U.S.-Russian agreement on securing Syria’s chemical weapons a “victory” for President Bashar Assad’s regime, but the U.S. warned Sunday “the threat of force is real” if Damascus fails to carry out the plan. The comments by Syrian Minister of National Reconciliation Ali Haidar to a Russian state news agency were the first by a senior Syrian government official on the deal struck a day earlier in Geneva. Under the agreement, Syria will provide an inventory of its chemical arsenal within one week and hand over all of the components of its program by mid-2014. “We welcome these agreements,” Haidar was quoted as saying by the RIA Novosti agency. “On the one hand, they will help Syrians get out of the crisis, and on the other hand, they averted a war against Syria by removing the pretext for those who wanted to unleash one.” He added: “These agreements are a credit to Russian diplomacy and the Russian leadership.

Students raise their own beef for lunch HAGERSTOWN (AP) — Students at an eastern Indiana school are going to not only know where the beef is, they’re going to know where it came from. That because students at Hagerstown Jr. Sr. High School, about 60 miles east of Indianapolis, are going to be raising their own beef cattle during agriculture classes. Agriculture teacher Nathan Williamson tells the Palladium-Item the cows will be slaughtered and turned into the hamburgers that will be served in the cafeteria. Williamson says the hands-on program offers a unique learning opportunity and will save the Nettle Creek School Corporation $2,000. Students have begun erecting a fence on a hillside just northeast of the high school. The plan is to solicit bids for the cattle and buy up to 10 beef cattle a year.

Police originally said they believed the boy, who was shot in his left forearm, had been the victim of a drive-by shooting. But Lt. Christopher Bailey says after further investigation police believe the sister accidentally shot her brother, but the investigation is continuing.

Valuable party list becomes public document More political fallout from Tony Bennett scandal INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — With just a few clicks, staffers in former school Superintendent Tony Bennett’s office made one of the Indiana Republican Party’s most valuable tools a public document — free to anyone. The master fundraising list is extensive, containing contact information for thousands of Republicans from grassroots supporters and precinct committee leaders to top-dollar lobbyists
and donors. Cellphones, personal emails and other valuable notes are included in the spreadsheet, two versions of which were found on Department of Education servers. The fundraising lists, campaign emails and more than 100 “campaign calls” entries on Bennett’s calendar were obtained by The Associated Press through multiple public records requests last week. News of the documents
led Democrats to call for an investigation. Inspector General David Thomas confirmed he is investigating Bennett, but declined to provide details of the investigation’s focus. Whether Bennett and his staff broke any laws will be a question for investigators and local prosecutors. But it’s clear they left valuable information on state-owned computers. Among the files were two downloaded from the
GOP’s Salesforce database, one dubbed the “Indiana Republican Party’s Red Meat List”; another includes an entry titled “Mitch’s ‘Red Meat’ List.” The database is a crucial element of any campaign, as demonstrated last year when party leaders launched an investigation into whether then-Senate candidate Richard Mourdock’s campaign wrongly downloaded information. Jim Holden, Mourdock’s former campaign manager, wrote an email last April to campaign consultants and top
staff to “start pillaging email addresses,” but accidentally included a party staffer on the email. The campaign was temporarily blocked from using the list. Party leaders ultimately decided against sanctioning Mourdock’s staff. After the AP reported last week that Bennett had downloads of the Salesforce list on state computers, Indiana Republican Party Chairman Tim Berry said Democratic Superintendent Glenda Ritz will have to explain how her office fulfilled public records requests.
Most bird-watchers have their favorite birds Ask someone to name their favorite bird and the response will probably be one of the most common birds, a bird they see often, robin, sparrow, blackbird, maybe redbird, which is a common name for the cardinal. Perhaps they’ll give you the name of a bigger, more imposing bird, bald eagle. If the person you ask is a hunter, they may say bobwhite or wild turkey or maybe duck. Ask a bird watcher, someone who keeps a list of the birds they’ve seen, to name their favorite bird and the response will likely be quite different. Instead of a common bird, it will probably be a bird that’s limited in number or distribution or both, a bird that requires a special effort, often going to a specific place to see. One fellow bird watcher told me his favorite bird was the Blackburnian warbler. That’s a little bird, black and white, and the male has a bright orange throat and marks on the head, the female has yellowish-orange. I’ve seen Blackburnian
warblers in Indiana. But only during migration. They nest farther north and fly south, all the way across the Gulf of Mexico, and spend the winter in South OUTDOOR America. When NOTES non-birders named Neil Case have duck as their favorite bird and I’ve asked what duck, the answer has been greenhead, pintail or sprig. One greenhead is the drake mallard. But there’s a second duck with a green head, the drake shoveler. As for sprig, that’s another name for the pintail. A bird watcher once also told me his favorite bird was a duck, the Harlequin duck. That’s a common bird in its area, but its area is the Northwest and in the east, the far north. I’ve seen harlequin ducks in Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska.

I’ve never had a birder tell me his or her favorite bird was a sparrow or a blackbird, not any kind of sparrow or blackbird. There are many sparrows and several blackbirds. The most common sparrow by name is the ubiquitous house sparrow, a bird introduced from Europe and originally called English sparrow. But it’s a sparrow only in name. It belongs to a different family. A few of the many species of true sparrow, which are all American, not found in Europe or Asia, are song, chipping, field, vesper, white-throated and white-crowned. Blackbird is another name for a group of birds. There is, of course, the red-winged blackbird. There is also a yellow-headed blackbird and a rusty blackbird. Further, grackles, starling and cowbirds are often called blackbirds. I once had a birder tell me her favorite bird was the yellow rail. That’s a little yellowish-brown bird of marshes, of dense stands of cattails. It’s approximately an inch shorter than a robin and has long legs. It’s active

I’ve looked for it in Minnesota and in Louisiana, even went out with a guide in Minnesota one night.

Texas and New Mexico, of southern Arizona and Mexico. It’s the size of a sparrow, the smallest owl in the world. It nests in holes woodpeckers have made in trees and in saguaro cactus. It’s nocturnal, as most owls are, and it preys on insects. And my favorite bird? It changes, as I believe it does for most bird watchers. If I saw a yellow rail or an elf owl, that would be my favorite at the time I saw it. But I’d soon decide on another bird I’ve never seen, California condor, perhaps.

ROME CITY — The Gene Stratton-Porter State Historic Site, in honor of its namesake’s 150th birthday, will showcase popular hat styles and fashions from the late 1800s into the early 1900s in ‘‘Dying for Fashion: Gene’s Concern for Our Feathered Friends.’’ The exhibition will be on view from Aug. 17 through Dec. 7 in the Carriage House Visitor’s Center. “Gene Stratton-Porter had a disdain for the feather trade as one can imagine. In the late 1800s it was all the rage to wear a hat with at least one feather on it, if not more,� said site manager Dave W. Fox. “Eventually the style got so out of hand that entire birds were being placed onto women’s hats. The story of Gene’s visit to a milliner’s shop inspired this exhibit.

chased by a bear. The girls climbed on a rock and the Great Spirit raised the rock. The vertical claw marks from the bear are seen along the rock as it attempted to climb up to catch the girls. Bear Lodge is considered sacred to the Lakota and climbing it would be desecration. The first ascent/ desecration was in 1893 when wooden stakes were braced between the vertical columns/bear claw marks to make a ladder. Two years later the first woman made it to the top. The first successful technical climb was in 1937. There is a motivational saying about the man at the top of the mountain didn’t drop there. Well, in 1941, one did just that. A parachutist landed. He was stranded for six days. Food and supplies were dropped by airplane until the fire department arrived. Boy, was his mom mad. We didn’t climb or

Vultures soared over the tip as we smelled the ponderosa pines and grasslands. Birds and crickets chirped in harmony. Prairie dogs scampered and clambered in and out of their basement rec rooms. Ahead a snake slithered across the path stretched
out, covering across the path, garden hose over a sidewalk, blocking our advance. It was far enough ahead that the trio of girls with me didn’t have to leap upon a boulder. Like the bear, they would have put their own claw marks on a rock. That would have been a Close Encounter of a Third Kind. PAUL BECKWITH is an Angola

Herbert has completed basic cadet training and earned the rank of cadet fourth class at the U.S. Air Force Academy. The cadet completed a rigorous six-week orientation program. The training prepares cadets to enter their first academic year at the academy. The cadets completed the training in two phases. Phase one consisted of military and physical preparation which focused on the transition from civilian to military life. Phase two involved three
weeks of field training on the academy grounds to participate in activities to extend their physical limitations and build self and group confidence. The U.S. Air Force Academy curriculum offers education in the basics, engineering and social sciences, the humanities, and 30 other academic majors. At graduation, the cadet receives a bachelor of science degree and a commission of second lieutenant in the Air Force. He is the son of Ron and Amy Herbert of West Kimberly Way, Glendale, Ariz., and grandson of Don and Sue Waite of Angola, and Andrea Macy of South McCarty Street, Fortville.

Village offers free rent to ‘right chef’ CATSKILL, N.Y. (AP) — Locals looking to land a buzz-worthy, foodie-friendly restaurant in this Hudson River village are offering the right chef a novel deal: Come to Catskill with a killer concept — maybe farm-totable, gastro-pub or vegetarian — and get space on Main Street rent free for a year. The hope is the right restaurant will give the growing number of downriver arrivals from New York City an attractive place to eat. And maybe it will accelerate the kind of gentrification that has revived other river towns. “I don’t know what the actual spark will be, but I certainly think this will help ignite whatever’s going to happen,” said Nina Sklansky, who belongs to a local group promoting Catskill as a funky, affordable place. “If people are going to linger, they’re going to want to eat.” Catskill, on the west
bank of the Hudson about 100 miles north of New York City, has a movie house with a marquee on Main Street along with a columned courthouse and places to window shop. With an average family income of $55,000, the village has kept its humble roots. But like a lot of corners of the valley, the village of 4,000 is changing as city people migrate north or buy second homes. In the last year especially, local real estate broker David King said he has noticed more 30-something couples with toddlers from Brooklyn. Meanwhile, there are plans to convert an old commercial site into a haven for artisans. If Catskill is showing green shoots of gentrification, it’s nowhere near the full bloom on display across the river in the city of Hudson. The once-tumbledown city is today is loaded with antique shops, art spaces and restaurants that get described glowingly.
DDT still threatens condors SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — In the coastal redwood forests of central California, scientists trying to unravel the mystery surrounding the reproductive problems of dozens of endangered condors think they have uncovered the culprit: the long-banned pesticide DDT. The soaring scavengers with wingspans wider than NBA players are tall were reintroduced to the rugged coast of Big Sur in 1997 after a century-long absence. Upon arrival, the birds found plenty to eat, with dead California sea lions and other marine mammals littering the craggy shoreline. While a good food source, sea lion blubber often has high levels of DDT, a pesticide banned in 1972 that has proven to be a persistent pollutant because it accumulates in bodies of creatures throughout the food chain when animals eat one another. Once used widely in agriculture, DDT was banned because it is a human toxin considered a possible carcinogen by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Kelly Sorenson, executive director of Ventana Wildlife Society and a co-author of a new study on condors, said researchers who spent six years studying their reproductive problems have “established a strong link” to DDT in the birds’ food source. The peer-reviewed paper written by 10 condor experts, including biologists from the Los Angeles and Santa Barbara zoos and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is being published this month in the University of California journal “The

Condor.” “In science, rarely is anything definitive but we’ve established a strong link between … DDT and eggshell thinning in California condors,” Sorenson told the Associated Press. The eggshell mystery began in 2006, when a biologist inspecting a condor nest in the cavity of a redwood tree on the central California coast found the first thin shell. Over the next six years, the scientists observed condors feeding on dozens of sea lions, and found that the Big Sur condor population had a low hatching success — just 20-40 percent — for 16 nesting pairs. In contrast, 70-80 percent of southern California condors in the Tejon area had hatched

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AP) — Gunmen shot the top female police officer in a troubled southern Afghan province Sunday, leaving her facing possible paralysis just months after her predecessor was killed, government and hospital authorities said. It was the latest in a series of attacks on prominent women in Afghanistan, where just 1 percent of the police force is female. The officer, identified only as Negar, was buying grass for her lambs outside her home when two gunmen drove up on a motorbike and fired at her, said Omar Zawak, a spokesman for the governor of Helmand province. The 38-year-old suffered a bullet wound to the neck, and the medical team treating her is trying to keep
her from being paralyzed as a result of the injury, said one of the doctors who operated on her. He gave him name only as Shahwali for security reasons. Negar’s bodyguards fired back at the gunmen, but the attackers escaped. Negar serves as a sub-inspector in the police criminal investigation department in Helmand province. She had taken over the duties of Islam Bibi, a well-known police officer who was shot dead in July by unknown gunmen as she headed to work. Bibi had told reporters she had even been threatened by male members of her own family for her job. Zawak said Negar had given recent interviews to media outlets saying that Afghan policewomen would not quit in the face of the

successfully over the same time. The southern California condors are inland, and sea lions are not a food source. Biologists familiar with the ravages of DDT in bird populations immediately suspected the widely used pesticide as a factor. Tests since the 1970s have found high levels of DDT in sea lions; and studies have linked DDT’s metabolized version, DDE, to egg shell thinning in birds, including brown pelicans and bald eagles. The condor study attributed at least eight of 16 egg failures to thinning from DDT. One shell found crushed in a nest was 54-percent thinner than normal. Thinning can also allow bacteria to more easily enter the eggs. But why did the sea lions
have such high DDT levels in the first place? The scientists theorize that the sea mammals were exposed when they migrated to the central coast from southern California, where the Montrose Chemical Corp. dumped DDT with impunity for decades until the 1970s. The Montrose plant and the ocean off Palos Verdes where it dumped DDT are now listed as Environmental Protection Agency “Superfund” sites. “A vast majority of California sea lions have spent at least a portion of their lives in the waters of southern California, which is the most DDT-contaminated coastal environment in the world,” Sorenson said. “Northward movements of sea lions provide a pathway of DDT to condors in central California.”

dangers they faced. Several prominent Afghan women have been attacked or kidnapped in recent months. Earlier this month, a female parliamentarian held captive for about four weeks was freed by the Taliban in exchange for several detained militants, a provincial lawmaker told The Associated Press. The Taliban said the freed prisoners were “four innocent women and two children.” In August, insurgents ambushed the convoy of a female Afghan senator, seriously wounding her in the attack and killing her 8-year-old daughter and a bodyguard. Female police officers seem to be a favorite target of insurgents, and several have been threatened or
killed in the past few years. Lt. Col. Malalai Kakar, who worked in southern Kandahar province and was perhaps the best-known female police officer in the country, was shot dead by the Taliban in 2008. According to a report released earlier this month by the international aid agency Oxfam, efforts to recruit more women into Afghanistan’s police force have been met with limited success. In 2005, the national police force employed just 180 women out of 53,400 personnel, the report said. By July 2013, that had risen to 1,551 policewomen out of 157,000. The female officers, especially in the deeply conservative southern provinces, face numerous challenges.

shoulder-high. This year’s yield is more than 10 feet tall. To cut the maze, Smith works with a company in Utah that designs corn mazes for nearly 350 farms in the United States. The first maze was in the shape of a Duesenberg, a nod to DeKalb County’s automotive heritage. Smith and a crew of four from the company completed this year’s maze in July, when the corn was 6 inches tall. To make the cuts, the crew measured out the design in a grid. “We didn’t use a GPS,� Smith said. It took them a full day from sunrise to sunset to finish. Running the corn maze is “two months of a lot of busyness� Smith said. “It gets pretty crazy around here, � he said, adding, “It’s a family venture — everyone helps.� Smith knew an acquaintance in Colorado who did a Peyton Manning corn maze after the quarterback was traded to the Denver Broncos. “He told me, ‘Thanks for sending him our way,’ � Smith said, giving him the idea to do a Luck version. “If he can do a maze with Peyton Manning,� Smith said. “We can do one with Luck.� He made sure to get permission from the Colts and wanted to make sure it was OK with Luck. Smith has even invited Luck to come out and see the maze. No word yet if the quarter-

everything is OK.� Once the season ends at Amazing Fall Fun, Smith harvests the corn in late October. The rest of the year, Smith grows corn and beans, and raises grass-fed beef. He cross plants the corn, to make a denser maze. The field is not his top yield, but he said it “creates a better maze.�

missile strikes against the Assad regime, although the Obama administration has warned that the military option remains on the table if Damascus does not comply. President Barack Obama said last week the U.S. Navy will maintain its increased presence in the eastern Mediterranean Sea to keep pressure on Syria and to be in position to respond if diplomacy fails.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck stewed over the mistakes he made Sunday. There was the forced pass into the end zone that was picked off, the failure to take the potential short gains on the final series and the inability to get away from pressure on Indy’s final offensive play. It was, simply, too much for the Colts to overcome on a day Ryan Tannehill threw for 319 yards and one touchdown, and the Miami defense held Indy to 133 yards in the second half to preserve a 24-20 victory. “You start thinking about the plays afterward. I think some of those, instead of throwing the ball up for grabs, take the underneath guy, get 5 yards and get in second-and-5 instead of ending up in second-and-10, third-and-10, fourth-and-10,” Luck said. “I don’t think I managed that particularly well. They did a good job of pressure on that last play. You never want to get sacked on fourth down. That’s almost one of those cardinal sins.” Luck and the Colts (1-1) seemed to have everything working in the first half when they piled up 315 total yards and climbed out of a 14-3 deficit to take a 17-14 lead. But in the second half, they

Pirates shut down Cubs PITTSBURGH (AP) — Three batters into the game, it appeared Chicago Cubs starter Travis Wood might not make it out of the first inning. Jose Tabata led with a triple off the center-field fence and scored on a wild pitch to put the Pittsburgh Pirates ahead 1-0. Jordy Mercer followed with a double that bounced into the left-field bleachers, and Andrew McCutchen singled to put runners at the corners. “They came out hacking, they had a game plan right there, and fortunately enough I was able to get out of there with just one run,” Wood said. Wood settled down to pitch six innings. But the Cubs lost 3-2 as Francisco Liriano took a no-hit
bid into the seventh inning and pinch-hitter Justin Morneau singled in the go-ahead run in the eighth. Pittsburgh, which began the day tied with St. Louis for the NL Central lead, took three of four from the last-place Cubs and won for the sixth time in seven games. “You knew runs were going to be tough to go by on both ends,” Cubs manage Dale Sveum said. “Woody got out of a big jam in the first inning, settled down, and pitched very well. Obviously Liriano’s very good so they matched each other evenly, pitch-for-pitch, a couple bloopers there in the last inning cost us the win there.” Morneau, acquired from Minnesota on Aug. 31, drove in his first run for the Pirates.

Mayweather dominates for easy win in ring LAS VEGAS (AP) — Canelo Alvarez proved nothing more than easy money for Floyd Mayweather Jr. Mayweather turned one of the richest fights ever into just another $41.5 million payday Saturday night, dominating Alvarez from the opening bell and winning a majority decision in a masterful performance that left no doubt who the best fighter of his era is. Fighting off his shortest layoff in years, Mayweather was sharp, efficient and sometimes brutal in dismantling an unbeaten fighter who was bigger and was supposed to punch harder. He frustrated Alvarez early, pounded him with big right hands in the middle rounds, and made him look just like he said he would — like any other opponent. Mayweather was favored 117-111 and 116-112 on two ringside scorecards while a third inexplicably had the fight 114-114. The Associated Press scored it 119-109 for Mayweather. “I just listened to my corner, listened to my dad,” Mayweather said. “My dad had a brilliant game plan, and I went out there and got the job done.” Mayweather remained unbeaten in 45 fights and added another piece of the junior middleweight title to his collection in a fight that was fought at a 152-pound limit. Alvarez weighed in at that weight, but was an unofficial 165 pounds when he got into the ring while Mayweather, who weighed in at 150 1/2 pounds, was an even 150. The extra weight did Alvarez no good and the punching power that brought him 30 knockouts in 43 fights wasn’t a help either. The Mexican star was seldom able to land a solid punch, with most of his punches either missing or glancing off of Mayweather.
AP
Floyd Mayweather Jr. throws a jab against Canelo Alvarez against the ropes in the eighth round during a
152-pound title fight Saturday in Las Vegas.
“No doubt he’s a great fighter, a very intelligent fighter,” Alvarez said. “There was no solution for him.” Mayweather said he actually had to put on weight during the day to even get close to what he weighed the day before. “When I woke up this morning, I was 146 pounds, so I had to call my chef and get something in my system,” he said. Mayweather’s speed was the difference all night as he was able to land straight
rights and left jabs, then get out of the way before Alvarez was able to respond. But while Mayweather used great defense, he wasn’t afraid to attack often and at different angles, finding Alvarez with punches he couldn’t anticipate. “He’s very talented, very elusive,” Alvarez said. When it was over, Mayweather didn’t even celebrate, walking over to a corner to look at the crowd. Just another payday,
just another win for Money May. The only surprise came when it was announced the decision wasn’t unanimous, with judge C.J. Ross scoring it even. “I can’t control what the judges do,” Mayweather said. Alvarez was supposed to be Mayweather’s greatest challenge and he did his best to force the action. Like others, though, he couldn’t solve the puzzle that is Mayweather and spent much of his night punching at an opponent who had already moved away from him. “I didn’t know how to get him, it’s extremely simple,” Alvarez said. “He’s a great fighter, very intelligent. The frustration was getting in there, but he’s a great fighter. We tried to catch him.” Alvarez said before the fight that he had the game plan to solve Mayweather’s tricky defense and fast hands. If it failed, he said, he had other game plans he would implement to win the fight. But he had no plan that worked once he got into the ring and found out just how difficult Mayweather can be. “At the same time, he also missed me a lot,” Alvarez said. “His punches landed on my gloves.” Ringside punch stats showed Mayweather dominance, crediting him with landing 232 of 505 punches to 117 of 526 for Alvarez. The sellout crowd of 16,746 at the MGM Grand on Mexican Independence weekend tried its best to urge Alvarez (42-1-1) on, but the cheers of “Canelo! Canelo!” were faint and wistful by the late rounds. Mayweather was so much in charge that the only question was whether the ringside judges would allow him to pitch a shutout.

IRISH: Purdue coach pleased with team’s progress FROM PAGE B1
to find ourselves at,” Kelly said. The Irish figured to miss linebacker Manti Te’o, the Heisman Trophy runnerup, but the eight returning starters from last season were expected to make up for much of that. So far, though, they haven’t. Kelly placed part of the problem on communications, saying Te’o and departed safety Zeke Motta played key roles in that area last season. “The two big leaders on our defense in terms of communication are the safety and the mike linebacker. They’re no longer here. Those are new communication positions. That’s evolving,” he said. He said the Irish had great communication against Purdue. Still, the Irish, who finished seventh in the nation last season in total defense, sit at No. 56 heading into Saturday’s game against Michigan State (3-0), which sits 84th in total offense. Kelly, though, says he is seeing signs of improvement, saying the
Irish had held the Boilermakers to 38 yards on 21 carries. “This offense is built to run the football. That’s what they wanted to do. They weren’t able to do that,” he said. He said some of “the basic tenets” coaches are looking for are coming together on defense. Kelly said he wasn’t concerned defensive end Stephon Tuitt, projected by some as a potential first-round draft pick, has only one tackle the past two games. “I really liked his play up front,” Kelly said. Kelly said the Irish were still trying to figure out their pieces and where they go. “We know there’s going to be an evolution of getting those players in the right position, developing them. That’s going to take a little time,” he said. The Irish defense had better get it together soon. After facing the Spartans on Saturday, the Irish play Oklahoma, which ranks 32nd in total offense, and Arizona State, which ranks
29th. Kelly, though, sounds confident. “We’re still evolving. It takes time. Even if you’ve got guys that are veterans, we have some key positions that have some new players in it. They’re coming together,” he said. Kelly confirmed a Tweet by third-string quarterback Malik Zaire that he has been cleared to play after missing the first three games with mononucleosis, but indicated he still might not suit up against Michigan State on Saturday. “He might be suspended for violating the rules relative to information. We’ll have to get back to you on that,” Kelly said. Purdue, meanwhile, took solace in their effort. “That is a huge step for this program,” coach Darrell Hazell said. “We talked all week about being level and not being too high or too low throughout the course of the game because it was going to be a battle from start to finish. I thought our guys did a great job of handling the situation.”
Prep Sports Roundup • Middle School Cross Country Patriots 8th in 26-team field Tyler Schwartz finished 13th overall in 11:57 to lead DeKalb Middle School’s girls cross country team to an eighth-place finish in the 26-team Indian Springs Invitational Saturday. Maydysen Snyder was 51st for the Patriots in 13:01. Other DeKalb finishers were Alyssa Wells (59th, 13:10), Bethany Kelley (67th, 13:21) and Sarah Fetter (72nd, 13:26). DeKalb finished 14th in the 26-team boys race. Marshall Beard led the way for the Patriots, finishing 65th in 12:04. Other finishers for DeKalb were Carlos Vazquez (77th, 12:15), Kaleb Garcia (81st, 12:18), Kobe Hopkins (90th,
12:23) and Jack Norton (104th, 12:32).
Freshman Volleyball DeKalb wins tourney BRUSHY PRAIRIE — The DeKalb freshman volleyball team won the Prairie Heights Invitational Saturday. The Barons defeated Fremont in its first match 25-12, 24-25 and 15-12. DeKalb then swept Lakeland 25-12, 25-10. In the championship game, DeKalb rebounded from a first-game loss to defeat East Noble 19-25, 25-17, 15-12. Carolyn Vadney led the Patriots with seven kills in the finale. Amanda Shonka recorded 18 assists. Amanda Shonka had four aces.
Peyton Manning again beat younger brother Eli, throwing two touchdown passes in leading the Denver Broncos past the New York Giants 41-23 on Sunday. The older Manning is 3-0 in the NFL against his sibling, with the other two victories coming when Peyton was with the Colts. He got this win with a huge boost from Knowshon Moreno, who rushed for two touchdowns and 93 yards. Denver (2-0), which has won 13 straight regular-season games, rushed for 109 yards altogether. Peyton Manning didn’t need to match his record-tying seven touchdown passes from the Broncos’ season-opening victory. Not with the Giants (0-2) being charitable again with three more turnovers after they had six in last’s week loss. They also allowed Trindon Holliday’s spectacular 81-yard punt return for a touchdown, the first such score in the league this season. PACKERS 38, REDSKINS 20 Aaron Rodgers threw for a career-high 480 yards and four touchdowns and Green Bay used a big first half to win its home opener. Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III threw for 320 yards and three second-half touchdowns. Pierre Garcon had 143 yards receiving and a touchdown. But it was too little, too late after Washington (0-2) fell short again after being outplayed early for a second straight week. James Jones had a career-
high 11 catches for 178 yards. James Starks ran for 132 yards and a touchdown. Green Bay (1-1) built a 24-0 lead by halftime and never looked back. CHARGERS 33, EAGLES 30 Philip Rivers threw three touchdown passes to Eddie Royal, and Nick Novak kicked a 46-yard field goal with 7 seconds left, spoiling Chip Kelly’s home debut. Michael Vick threw for a career-best 428 yards and two touchdowns and ran for a score. But a porous Eagles defense couldn’t stop Rivers all day. He finished 36 of 47 for 419 yards, and the Chargers punted only once. They fumbled twice inside Philadelphia’s 10 in the first half. The teams combined for 1,150 total yards, including 539 for San Diego. CHIEFS 17, COWBOYS 16 Alex Smith threw for 223 yards and two touchdowns, and the Kansas City defense held when it needed to in the fourth quarter. Jamaal Charles ran for 55 yards and caught a touchdown pass for the Chiefs, who made new coach Andy Reid a winner in his home debut. The Chiefs also matched their victory total from all of last season by starting 2-0 for just the second time since 2005. Dwayne Bowe’s touchdown catch in the third quarter and Ryan Succop’s 40-yard field goal early in the fourth gave the Chiefs a 17-13 lead. The Cowboys (1-1) answered with a deep
march into Kansas City territory but had to settle for Dan Bailey’s 53-yard field goal with 3:55 left. The Chiefs offense never gave the Cowboys a chance to mount a winning drive. TEXANS 30, TITANS 24, OT Rookie DeAndre Hopkins caught a 3-yard touchdown pass in overtime to cap Houston’s comeback win. With Andre Johnson out after being shaken up in the fourth quarter, Hopkins reached above Jason McCourty and pulled in the pass from Matt Schaub to give Houston the victory. The Texans (2-0) needed a franchise-record 21-point comeback to win their opener at San Diego 31-28. On Sunday, they charged back from an eight-point, fourth-quarter deficit against the Titans (1-1). BILLS 24, PANTHERS 23 Rookie EJ Manuel hit Stevie Johnson for a 2-yard touchdown pass with 2 seconds left. The touchdown capped a nine-play, 80-yard drive in which the first-round draft pick completed 6 of 8 attempts for 51 yards. Manuel also got help on third-and-6 from Carolina’s 29, when Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly was penalized for pass interference with 14 seconds left. Two plays later, Manuel found Johnson alone in the left corner as Buffalo (1-1) bounced back from a 23-21 season-opening loss to New England.
COLTS: Dolphins’ defense comes up big in clutch FROM PAGEB1
came down to managing mistakes. “We just didn’t make enough plays,” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. “They made just enough to get out of here with a win.” Tannehill is one of the big reasons Miami is 2-0 for only the second time since 2004. He was 23 of 34 for 319 yards with one touchdown and did a better job managing his offense in the second half. Miami played this one almost perfectly. They started fast, jumped to a 14-3 lead after two possessions, rallied twice and shut down the Colts when they needed, too. High-priced free-agent Mike Wallace was a little happier with his performance Sunday, finishing with nine
receptions for 115 yards and one touchdown a week after making only one catch in his Miami debut. Lamar Miller averaged nearly 5 yards per carry, running 14 times for 69 yards and a touchdown. Charles Clay had five catches for 109 yards and only one carry — a 1-yard TD run with 4:40 left in the third quarter, which turned out to be the game’s decisive score and stood up to a replay review. That, and a staunch defense late was enough for the Dolphins to hold on. “You have to be balanced to win football games. You can’t really win a football game by just throwing the whole game,” Wallace said. “You have to mix it up.” The Dolphins didn’t shy away from trading jabs,
especially after Indy piled up 315 yards of offense in the first half, their highest first-half total in seven years. The Colts finished with 438 yards, but couldn’t put Miami away after taking a 17-14 lead in the first half and a 20-17 lead early in the third quarter after Tannehill’s fumble. But Miami made all the big plays after that — the 34-yard completion from Tannehill to Wallace that set up Clay’s rushing score, the third down conversions to keep Luck & Co. off the field and the two big fourthquarter stops. “Our guys wanted to play them, we wanted to compete,” Miami coach Joe Philbin said. “They were ready for a 60-minute game and we knew we would have to make some plays to win.”

Joost Luiten of The Netherlands celebrates winning the KLM Open men’s golf tournament in the beach resort of Zandvoort, western Netherlands Sunday.
Luiten wins KLM Open ZANDVOORT, Netherlands (AP) — Joost Luiten beat Miguel Angel Jimenez on the first playoff hole Sunday to win the KLM Open for his second European Tour title of the year. Luiten became the first Dutch winner of his country’s national open since Maarten Lafeber in 2003 and the first Dutchman to win twice in a season on the European Tour. He also won the Lyoness Open in Austria in June. Jimenez made four early birdies to take the lead but Luiten rallied on the back nine at the Kennemer Golf & Country Club, with both making par on the 18th to force the playoff. Jiminez shot a 3-under 67 while Luiten had a 68. Both finished with 12-under totals of 268. “It was tough. He was playing really, really good, especially on the front nine,” Luiten said of the far more experienced Jimenez. “I thought ‘I just have to hang in there until the back nine and hopefully I can make a move there,’ and luckily it happened.” The players returned to the 18th tee and Luiten made par, while Jimenez hit his drive into the rough right of the fairway, left his second on the fringe and could not hole out in two.
Ukraine moves into basketball quarterfinals in Europe LJUBLJANA, Slovenia (AP) — Sacha Massot had a key block and a dunk late in the game to help give Belgium a 60-56 victory over Latvia on Sunday that sent Ukraine into the quarterfinals of the European basketball championship. Latvia needed to win and have Lithuania beat Ukraine in the late game to advance. Ukraine joins France, Serbia and Lithuania in advancing from Group E. Croatia, Slovenia and Italy have already advanced from Group F, which ends play Monday. Massot led Belgium with 14 points, four rebounds and three blocks. He blocked a Janis Blums layup and then dunked for a 59-56 lead that completed a 9-0 Belgium run. Dairis Bertans missed a 3-point attempt and Wen Mukubu made one of two free throws to complete the scoring. Latvia, which shot 29 percent from the field, had a chance to win late despite trailing most of the game. But Rolands Freimanis, who finished with 10 points, botched an alley-oop attempt. Latvia got the ball back with Axel Hervelle’s turnover but Massot blocked a drive by Blums. Latvia made only 5 of 29 3-point attempts despite relying on long-range shooting as its biggest weapon. Mukubu had 13 points and Hervelle added 10 and seven rebounds in Belgium’s only secondround win.
Helton to retire PHOENIX (AP) — Todd Helton will retire at the end of the season after spending 17 years with the Colorado Rockies and setting franchise records in nearly every offensive category. The 40-year-old first baseman’s decision was announced after a 9-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks Saturday night. Almost fittingly, he had a double in his only hit of the night, the 586th of his career. His final game at Coors Field will be Sept. 25 against the Boston Red Sox, the team that swept the Rockies during the 2007 World Series. The final game of his career will be on Sept. 29 in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. “For 17 years number ‘17’ has been the icon of Colorado Rockies baseball,” Rockies owner Dick Monfort said in a statement. “Todd will be missed and our hope is he will be a part of our Colorado baseball family for many more years to come.” The Denver Post first reported the story. Helton is a career .317 hitter and has 367 home runs, 1,397 RBIs, 1,394 runs, a .415 on-base percentage and a .539 slugging percentage in 2,235 career games. He was an All-Star from 2000 to 2004 and will end his career as the Rockies’ leader in games, hits, doubles, home runs, RBIs, runs and walks. Earlier this month, Helton became the 96th player in major league history to reach the 2,500-hit milestone.

Move from a military strike to negotiation LOS ANGELES — You have to admit that the timing of the Russian ploy to trip up (or at least drag President Obama’s feet on) any U.S. bombing of Moscow ally Syria was exquisite. I would now not only want to avoid playing Russian roulette with Vladimir Putin but also would stay out of a high-stakes all-night poker game with him. The proposal pushed into prominence is that Damascus consign its chemical stocks to international authority. TOM This came on the eve of expected U.S CongresPLATE sional votes on Obama’s proposed punishment of the Assad government’s evident use of chemical weapons inside Syria. The result is to delay that vote pending clarification of the Russian position, and move the world spotlight to the negotiating battlefields of Geneva — and the United Nations in New York. Count me as among For my money the one of the coolest head in today’s gazillions of Americans hot world kitchen has with general been that of United growing doubts Nations Secretary about the efficacy of General Ban Ki-moon. U.S. military power to deal with issues that are either primarily political or do not directly threaten U.S. national security. There is no question that we could get away with a bombing run or missile shower into Syria. But the main achievement might be only to show further disrespect for the role of the U.N. Security Council as the primary legitimate international sanctioneer of the use of force against any given sovereign state. How sad and pathetic would it have been for Obama over Syria to go down the same tawdry path as George W. Bush over Iraq? Does might always make right? For my money the coolest head in today’s hot world kitchen has been that of United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. Though little commented upon in the news media, it was Ban who had denied the breathless and brainless U.S. request to put off the organization’s scheduled official on-site UN inspection of the chemical-usage in Syria. This under-rated secretary general wisely, quietly and rather cleverly managed to slow down the process of war escalation while not letting Assad off the moral hook by pushing forward with the inspection (now in the final process of evaluation and report, due soon). In this, the former South Korean foreign minister is indeed very much in tune, consciously or not, with the anti-war mood of the American people. Too often the military option is offered as the best (or even only) solution to a very thorny world problem. Ban’s view is that only in exceptional cases will the military option conceivably prove effective or even make sense, especially when there are diplomatic or negotiating options still untapped, unexhausted or even underϖutilized. No one can predict how the Syrian psychodrama will play out. But for those who feel the U.N. has little or no role to play on major international issues should examine the wise and measured role of its secretary general, who of course for years has been under no illusions about the moral fiber of Assad and his government. He has had a number of tense conversations with the hard-hearted Syrian president, working behind the scenes tirelessly (and, characteristically, quietly). It is now time to give the U.N. leader and the Security Council an opportunity to come up with something better than the mere use of military force, which inevitably causes mortal collateral damage to civilians no matter how carefully calibrated or purportedly confined to a putative “pinprick” operation. Americans should not be too concerned about the clever Russian president. Let him have his moment in the sun. Every dog needs to have his day. And sometimes evil can produce good (as the great sociologist Max Weber used to remind us). This may be such a time. Who knows? It might also prove a winning moment for the U.N., the Security Council and its principled and relentless secretary general. Why not give them a chance?

Letters to The Editor • Rep. Stutzman should support currency bill to help save U.S. jobs To the editor: We need to defend our manufacturing base. I hear elected officials talk all the time about how much they love “Made in America.” So I’m shocked that Congress hasn’t done anything to promote it, like approving the Currency Reform for Fair Trade Act. America should be responding when countries cheat at trade by manipulating their currencies. It creates a hidden tax on American manufacturers trying to export, and an uneven playing field for
those who compete with imports. The results are layoffs, a rising trade deficit and closed factories. The manufacturing recovery has completely sputtered out! We make a lot of things in Indiana, and our congressional delegation should step up for our manufacturers and workers. I hope Representative Stutzman does so by cosponsoring this currency bill. We need to defend our jobs and stop other countries from cheating at trade. Representative Stutzman, show us you love “Made in America!” Debbie Odier St. Joe
Putin tries to take the ‘high road’ in Syria WASHINGTON — As I read Vlad’s op-ed in The New York Times, a Judy Collins tune kept replaying in my head: “Isn’t it rich? Isn’t it queer?” The song, actually written by Stephen Sondheim, although it is Collins’ signature hit, is “Send in the Clowns” and seems an apt soundtrack for current events. As we’ve stalled in making a decision about how to handle Syria (two years and counting), Russian President Vladimir Putin and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad have been allowed to emerge as reasonable heads of state, talking down to the U.S., lecturing us about our misplaced belief in exceptionalism, and making demands that mock our president. Nice work. Putin hasn’t had this much fun since he rode shotgun in George W. Bush’s truck. Thanks to President Obama, the good times keep on rolling. We now have a catalog of blunders we can attach to Putin-related (Putinesca?) “diplomacy,” a term that becomes more farcical by the day. Recall that Bush, whose international outreach often included a ride around his Crawford, Texas, ranch, once said he looked into Putin’s eyes and saw his soul. I have a photograph from the day in Texas that captures the two men grinning. Putin, it must be said, looks like he’s having the time of his life and Bush looks, as he always did, confident and oblivious to the menace seated beside him. Next we have Obama, who, in an intimate moment with then-outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, conveyed a message to incoming President Putin. Thinking the microphones were off, Obama asked for a little space until after his re-election when he would have more wiggle room on missile defense. “Wiggle room,” now there’s a foreign policy. As the red line has moved, then blurred, then moved again until now it is
nearly invisible, Putin has approached the American people directly via the Times, while Assad issues orders to Washington: He’ll sign the chemical weapons agreement if the U.S. promises to bug off. Brilliant. We can’t quite seem to get it quite right at the helm. Either we’re saddled with a cocksure “decidinator” who is feared for his lack of pause — or we’re stuck with an over-thinker so afraid of making the wrong decision that he paralyzes himself KATHLEEN into a pose of ineptitude. Both profiles can PARKER be equally dangerous, depending on circumstances, though inarguably it is better to be feared than pitied. It is painful to watch as Obama is increasingly diminished by his inability to commit to a position that he himself has staked out. Certitude isn’t always an admirable trait. In fact, in political discourse, it is most often annoying if not downright wrong. Life is not, as it turns out, black and white. Diplomacy is all about exploring the shades of gray. But it is also true that the president of the United States doesn’t get to suffer the usual flaws of human comport. He doesn’t get to promise grave consequences for unacceptable behavior and then, failing to follow through, act as though everyone else’s perception is somehow at fault. “I didn’t set a red line,” Obama has said. “The world set a red line.” This not only is false but sounds petulant. The president’s speech to the nation Tuesday night struck a better tone, but it was consistently inconsistent in content. Obama conveyed the sense that he really doesn’t know what he intends to do — or why. Recognizing this, Putin now has taken

• the high road, scolding the U.S. for its “commonplace” interventions in countries not its own. “Is it in America’s long-term interest? I doubt it,” Putin wrote — and we know that Putin cares deeply about America’s long-term interest. “Millions around the world increasingly see America not as a model of democracy but as relying solely on brute force, cobbling coalitions together under the slogan ‘you’re either with us or against us.’” And, it is “extremely dangerous to encourage people to see themselves as exceptional, whatever the motivation.” Actually, Vlad, millions around the world do see the U.S. not only as a model of democracy but also as exceptional because, among other things, we let everybody talk. Even clowns. Sing it, Judy. Whatever the outcome of these fire-hydrant gymnastics, a positive result (no U.S. military engagement and an enforceable chemical weapons agreement with Syria) likely will have been accidental. So be it and pass the champagne. But the larger lesson should not get lost in events: Never draw a line unless you are prepared to fight. Erasers make lousy weapons.

What Others Say • Pakistan’s peaceful transition During most of his five years as Pakistan’s president, Asif Ali Zardari was so embattled that there were constant rumors that he would be killed, jailed or ousted in a military coup. On Sunday, he left office after a formal lunch hosted by his political rivals. This was the first time that an elected Pakistani president had completed his term; most others were overthrown or forced to resign. It was a remarkable development in a fragile nation not known for peaceful transitions. On Monday, Mamnoon Hussain, an obscure 73-year-old political figure, was sworn in as his successor. This was all seen as a hopeful if unexpected sign that democratic institutions may be taking hold. Zardari, elected
president after his wife, Benazir Bhutto, the former prime minister, was assassinated, was controversial. Senior judges tried to unseat him through corruption prosecutions; generals spread rumors of possible coups; the news media and the public criticized him incessantly; the Taliban vowed to kill him. But he confounded critics by surviving. He also strengthened democracy by moderating the powers of his own office and the confrontational tone of politics in general. Pakistan remains a dangerous country. … It is vitally important that Hussain, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and the military, headed by Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, work together to strengthen democratic processes. Kayani, probably the most powerful man in the country, should
step down as planned in November and be replaced by someone who will continue to decrease the army role in politics. Now that Pakistan has secured a $6.6 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund, the government should make the reforms needed to get the country on a sound financial footing. That has to include making sure that Pakistan’s wealthy elite pay income taxes, and, if Pakistani leaders are smart, will also include shutting down a nuclear weapons program that wastes billions of dollars better spent on social programs like education. The peaceful transition from Zardari to Hussain gives Pakistan a marker on which to build. New York Times

It’s never too late to send condolences DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend of four years, “Joey,” is a kind and loving person. Recently the father of one of his close childhood friends died. We live a plane ride away, and Joey could not get time off work to attend the services. I assumed Joey called his friend and family to extend his sympathies. During our last visit home, I found out he had not reached out to them. I’m upset that he didn’t, and I know the friend was deeply hurt by it. At this point, what can Joey do to make things right? Why wouldn’t he make the call in the first place? — SMOOTHING IT OVER DEAR SMOOTHING: Joey may not have reached out because he didn’t know what to do, which would have been to call and extend his condolences or send a card or handwritten note. He may have procrastinated because he didn’t know what to say and was afraid he’d

say the wrong thing. The way to fix this would be for Joey to pick up the phone, apologize to his friend for not calling sooner, and confess that he knows he was wrong for not doing so. All he needs to say after that DEAR is that he’s for his ABBY sorry friend’s loss. DEAR ABBY: My daughterin-law allows her 2-year-old daughter to run around naked before bath time and at other times. They have been visiting us, and there are also other people in the house and yard. The child’s mom tells her to say, “Look at these buns!” and laughs.

We feel this is inappropriate and dangerous. — CONCERNED GRANDMA DEAR GRANDMA: While I don’t think that allowing a child to run around nude at home is dangerous, I do agree that encouraging a child to run naked and say, “Look at these buns!” is unwise. The response it brings (“Ha, ha, ha — isn’t she cute!”) teaches the little girl that this is a way to get attention. While this may be amusing at 2, it is setting a pattern that will attract the wrong kind of attention when she is 4, 5 or 6. Envision her mooning the first-grade class! Perhaps you can make your daughter-in-law understand by showing her this column.

heartburn medications are available over-the-counter or by prescription. Irritation and swelling in the throat can also be part of an allergic reaction to certain medications. The blood pressure medicines called “ACE inhibitors” are particularly likely to cause swelling in the throat. Rarely, that swelling can become so severe that it threatens your ability to breathe and is a true medical emergency. If one of my patients on an ACE inhibitor has even a mild sensation of a lump in the throat, I switch the patient to another type of blood pressure medicine. A food allergy is another possibility. I once had a patient who got a lump in her throat and swollen lips any time she ate a mango. This was sad, because she loved mangoes! Finally, there is an unusual condition called

DEAR DOCTOR K: I often feel like I have a lump of mucus in my throat. In the morning I spit some of it up, but the sensation doesn’t go away. What can I do about it? DEAR READER: Doctors sometimes use the term “globus sensation” for the feeling of a lump in the throat. The first question I ask when a patient says he has a lump in his throat is: Is it just a feeling that there is a lump there, or is there something you can spit up? Because you say you have mucus that you cough up, the most likely explanation is that allergies are causing your nose and sinuses to produce extra mucus. At night, when you are lying flat, that mucus collects in the back of your throat; that’s why you tend to spit it up in the mornings. The treatment is allergy medications and inhalers.

Zenker’s diverticulum, when a pouch forms in the wall of the back of the throat. Food can collect in the pouch and may come back out before it is swallowed. Zenker’s diverticulum is easily diagnosed and treated, usually by an ear, nose and throat specialist. In medical school we’re taught a lot about the major illnesses — the ones that can disable or kill you. But many of my patients suffer, instead, from one of the “minor maladies of man,” about which we know only a little. If we had more medical research on these minor maladies, I’ll bet we’d come up with treatments that would save a lot of people minor misery. DR.

50th anniversary of Alabama church bombing marked BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Hundreds of people black and white, many holding hands, filled an Alabama church that was bombed by the Ku Klux Klan 50 years ago Sunday to mark the anniversary of the blast that killed four little girls and became a landmark moment in the civil rights struggle. The Rev. Arthur Price taught the same Sunday school lesson that members of 16th Street Baptist Church heard the morning of the bombing — “A Love That Forgives.” Then, the rusty old church bell was tolled four times as the girls’ names were read. Bombing survivor Sarah Collins Rudolph, who lost her right eye and sister Addie Mae Collins in the blast, stood by as members laid a wreath at the spot where the dynamite device was placed along an outside wall. Rudolph was 12 at the time, and her family left the church after the bombing. She said it was important to return in memory of her sister, who was 14, and the three other girls who died: Carole Robertson and Cynthia Wesley Morris, both 14, and Denise McNair, 11. “God spared me to live and tell just what happened on that day,” said Rudolph, who testified against the Klansmen convicted years later in the bombing. Congregation members and visitors sang the old hymn “Love Lifted Me” and joined hands in prayer. The somber Sunday school lesson was followed by a raucous, packed worship service with gospel music and believers waving their hands. During the sermon, the Rev. Julius Scruggs of Huntsville, president of the National Baptist Convention USA, said, “God said you may murder four little girls, but you won’t murder the dream of justice and liberty for all.” Later Sunday, Attorney General Eric Holder and others were set to attend a commemoration. Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, a Birmingham native who went to school with McNair, was among the scheduled speakers. The dynamite bomb went off outside the church Sept. 15, 1963. Of the Klansmen convicted years later, one remains imprisoned. Two others died in prison. Two young men, both black, were shot to death in Birmingham in the chaos that followed the bombing. Birmingham was strictly segregated at the time of the bombing, which occurred as city schools were being racially integrated for the first time. The all-black 16th Street Baptist was a gathering spot for civil rights demonstrations for months before the blast.

Bombing victim Sarah Collins Rudolph, left, and her husband George Rudolph applaud during a memorial service at the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. Sunday.
The bombing became a powerful symbol of the depth of racial hatred in the South and helped build momentum for later laws, including the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. During the commemoration, an honor guard composed of black and whites officers and firefighters watched over ceremonies; something that would have been unthinkable in Birmingham in 1963. That same year, white police officers and firefighters used dogs and water hoses on black demonstrators marching for equal rights. President Barack Obama issued a statement noting that earlier this year the four girls were posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, one of the country’s highest civilian honors. “That horrific day in Birmingham, Alabama quickly became a defining moment for the Civil Rights Movement. It galvanized Americans all across the country to stand up for equality and broadened support for a movement that would eventually lead to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,” Obama said. Rev. Bernice King, a daughter of the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., noted the changed city in a prayer. “We thank you father for the tremendous progress we have made in 50 years, that we can sit in the safe confines of this sanctuary being protected by the city of Birmingham when 50 years ago the city turned its eye and its ears away from us,” she said.

Despite pressure, ban on gay blood donors endures NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. gay-rights movement has achieved many victories in recent years — on marriage, military service and other fronts. Yet one vestige of an earlier, more wary era remains firmly in place: the 30-year-old nationwide ban on blood donations by gay and bisexual men. Dating from the first years of the AIDS epidemic, the ban is a source of frustration to many gay activists, and also to many leading players in the nation’s health and blood-supply community who have joined in calling for change. In June, the American Medical Association voted to oppose the policy. AMA board member William Kobler called it “discriminatory and not based on sound science.” Last month, more than 80 members of Congress wrote to the Department of Health and Human Services, criticizing the lifetime ban as an outdated measure that perpetuates inaccurate stereotypes about gay men. On some college campuses, students have urged boycotts of blood drives until the ban is repealed. Over the summer, activists organized a
“National Gay Blood Drive” — asking gay men to visit blood centers, take tests to show their blood was safe, and then try to donate in defiance of the ban. In the face of such pressure, the Food and Drug Administration — the HHS agency that regulates America’s blood supply — has been unwavering. The lifetime ban will be eased, the FDA says, “only if supported by scientific data showing that a change in policy would not present a significant and preventable risk to blood recipients.” Under the auspices of HHS, a few studies are in progress that might lay the groundwork for a review of the policy. Department spokeswoman Diane Gianelli said the studies reflect a commitment to “continuously improving the safety and availability of the nation’s blood supply.” However, some activists are impatient at the prospect of a research process that’s likely to extend over several years with an uncertain outcome. They argue that the U.S. could move now to emulate Spain and Italy, where blanket bans on gay blood donations have been replaced by policies that ban donations by anyone — gay
or straight — who’s recently had unsafe sex, while allowing donations from gays and bisexuals whose blood is tested as safe and whose sexual behavior is deemed to pose no risk. “We do not think HHS is moving fast enough,” said Jason Cianciotto of Gay Men’s Health Crisis, a New York-based nonprofit engaged in AIDS prevention and care. Cianciotto said the ban “perpetuates the stigma that gay and bisexual men are dangerous to public health,” and thus undercuts efforts to combat HIV. The FDA says its policy is not intended as a judgment on donors’ sexual orientation, and instead is based on the documented risk of blood infections, such as HIV, associated with male-to-male sex. According to the FDA, men who have had sex with other men represent about 2 percent of the U.S. population, yet accounted for at least 61 percent of all new HIV infections in the U.S. in 2010. The FDA implemented the ban in 1983, when health officials were first recognizing the risk of contracting AIDS via blood transfusions.
