Glynn County Sheriff’s Office Deputies Brian Paulk, left, and Justin Juliano were commended for capturing fugitive Aubrey Lee Price by the Georgia House of Representatives.

Deputies with the Glynn County Sheriff’s Office have handed out dozens of traffic citations and hundreds of warnings to motorists, but one case in particular has brought them fame. The case: the capture of one of the FBI’s Most Wanted fugitives. Deputies Brian Paulk and Justin Juliano arrested Aubrey Lee Price this past New Year’s Eve, an action that has earned them recognition around the world and, just recently, a resolution from the Georgia General Assembly

commending them. The Georgia House of Representatives adopted the resolution, sponsored by state Rep. Jeff Chapman, R-Brunswick, in February. At the time of his arrest, Price was considered one of the FBI’s most wanted criminals after he allegedly embezzled around $20 million as president of Montgomery Bank & Trust in Ailey and through a money management firm he ran. Price had been on the run from authorities since June 16, 2012 and had been pronounced dead after faking his own suicide.

Recycling program eclipses national average in St. Marys By GORDON JACKSON The Brunswick News

ST. MARYS — Alex Kearns remembers when naysayers said curbside recycling would fail in St. Marys. “We were told it’s not going to fly here,” she said. Kearns, chair of St. Marys EarthKeepers, and other recycling supporters didn’t listen. They waged an effective campaign in 2007 to convince St. Marys City Council to approve curbside

recycling for everyone in the city at no additional cost. “It was a very complex process because we had to gather information and rally citizens before we approached city council,” Kearns said. Supporters attended council meetings in large numbers and told council members they wanted the service. “I think it was tremendously effective,” she said of the campaign. “It was an information deluge. We kept it as simple as possible and stuck to the

facts.” The program has been tremendously effective too. Nearly seven years later, curbside recycling has been more successful in St. Marys than anyone could have imagined. Myron Thomas, general manager of Advanced Disposal, the company that handles recycling in the Camden County city, said his company recently completed a study that determined 72.5

The aviation industry in Glynn County and in the rest of Georgia could be getting some good news in the near future. House Bill 933, sponsored by Rep. Alex Atwood, R-St. Simons Island, would make permanent the current tax exemption on airplane parts from aircraft outside Georgia that fly here to be repaired. The current tax exemption on aviation parts has been in effect since 2007 but has always contained a sunset clause, Atwood said. Though the clause has been extended several times, its temporary status causes uncertainty

Man admits to stealing from store

By SARAH LUNDGREN The Brunswick News

Standing in front of a gym full of students and parents at Satilla Marsh Elementary, physical education teacher Beth Cain held up a gold trophy bearing the school’s name multiple times. The trophy, awarded each year to the school raising the most money during the annual Jump Rope for Heart event – benefitting the American Heart Association – has had a home at the school since 2001. That fact won’t likely change this year. All day long Friday, students entered the gym grade by grade to jump, hop and skip while staff members totaled up their funds from prior fundraising. It was hard to imagine the students would beat their total from last year – just over $13,000 – but they did. Cain says the school’s thoughtful pupils brought in at least $15,000 for this year’s Jump Rope for Heart. Cain says there are reasons for hosting and hyping up the event every year, from promoting exercise and healthy “Heart Smart” eating and nutrition habits to helping out the American Heart Association’s cause. Many at the school, from the school’s principal, Kathie Matthews, to some of elementary school’s youngest students, have been affected by heart disease and stroke, but Friday’s success was particularly bittersweet. A banner that stood at the front of the gym in both honor of those who have battled heart issues and in memory of those who have lost the battle had an extra name on it: T.J. Norvell, a father of twin second-grade boys who died of a heart attack just the week before. “We lost one of our parents last week, and

According to agenda documents, the 16,000 square foot maintenance structure will be built at public works, 4145 U.S. 341, Brunswick. The new fleet shop will replace the department’s existing building. In a memorandum to the planning commission dated Feb. 24, planner Eric Landon reported the facility’s site plan meets all the county’s requirements, and he recommended approval. Also at the planning commission’s meeting, scheduled for 6 p.m. today in the historic Glynn County Courthouse, 701 G St., Brunswick, the board will consider a site plan for the expansion of an automobile maintenance business at 3609 Newcastle St. Planning staff recommends approval of the plan.

companies.” Under current law, potential businesses might skip looking at the state all together. Atwood has worked on the new bill for almost three years, having brought it forward last year but failing in getting it through the House. Almost hesitant to try again just yet, Atwood changed his mind because he wanted to keep the dialogue going from last year’s discussions. So far, it seems to be working. After passing through all the necessary subcommittees, Atwood had one day to argue the bill on the House floor – Monday, which was crossover day, the last day a bill could cross over to the House or Senate this

session of the General Assembly. The bill passed out of the House with a vote of 163-10. Atwood, seeing support in the Senate for it, said his confidence is growing he’ll be able to get the bill through the legislature and onto the governor’s desk. “This just makes such good sense to grow our aviation business, especially at home,” Atwood said. The Brunswick and Glynn County Development Authority is keeping its fingers crossed while the bill makes its way to the Senate.

Mayor serves aboard Navy destroyer Today’s veteran: Ken Smith, 68 Born: Jacksonville Residence: Kingsland Service: Navy, 4 years Highest rank: Seaman 2nd class Main duties: Boiler room technician Recognitions: National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal (with one Bronze Star), Vietnam Campaign Medal, Navy Achievement Medal, Good Conduct Medal Duty stations: San Diego, Calif.; Long Beach, Calif.; USS Black. His story: Ken Smith never planned to join the Navy when he decided to enlist in the military. He talked with an Air Force recruiter and said he intended on enlisting when he received his draft notice by the Army. When the notice came, Smith went to the Air Force recruiter’s office to enlist before he was scheduled to report to the Army, but the recruiter wasn’t there. A Navy recruiter was in his office and Smith decided to sign up for four years after they agreed his experience in auto body work qualified him to work on aircraft. “The recruiter told me I would be an aviation structural mechanic,” he said. “None of that materialized. Instead of going to the school in Jacksonville, Fla., I was sent to Long Beach, Calif., and to Vietnam.” Smith said he served three, six-month tours of duty off the coast of Vietnam

aboard the destroyer USS Black, which provided reconnaissance, troop support and carrier group support. The crew also performed rescues at sea for downed pilots. “The Army and Marines called on us quite frequently for gunfire support,” he said. The heavily-armed destroyer was never attacked during the war, and Smith said he never had any brushes with danger. At night, the crew would drop concussion grenades in the water to deter underwater attacks, he said. “I don’t think they wanted to mess with

that ship,” he said. The destroyer also provided support for a Riverine team that traveled in small boats in the deltas and rivers. “We were engaged in some not-sofriendly missions,” he said. While Vietnam was often in sight, Smith said he never left his ship during the three tours of duty in Vietnam. “I never had a chance to go ashore,” he said. “I never set foot on it.” He did have port calls at Midway, Guam, Japan, the Philippines, Hong Kong and Hawaii. “The waters at Midway are really beautiful,” he said. Smith said he still has vivid memories of his service aboard the Black. “I think of it a lot,” he said. “It was the type of work we were doing.” Smith, who has served on the Kingsland City Council since 1986, including the past decade as mayor, said lessons learned in the Navy have stayed with him a lifetime. “I have lasting memories of getting leadership positions where I was in charge of 13 or 14 men,” he said. “I was the youngest black person in the Navy assigned to a warship. It was a major accomplishment.” • Our Veterans appears Tuesdays. Contact Gordon Jackson at gjackson@ thebrunswicknews.com, on Facebook or at 464-7655 to suggest a veteran for a column.

Capitol to erect MLK statue ➊ ATLANTA: A plan passed by the Georgia House of Representatives calls for civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. to be commemorated with a statute at the state Capitol. Lawmakers voted 173-3 on Monday to approve a statue for the slain clergyman. It would be paid for by private donations. The bill now heads to the state Senate and has received overwhelming bipartisan support. There is a portrait of King in the Capitol building, but not a statue of him on the Statehouse grounds. Recognizing King has been politically controversial in the past. Former Georgia Gov. Lester Maddox refused to close the state government to honor King when the civil rights leader was assassinated in 1968. Political leaders who historically supported segregation are honored with portraits or monuments, most erected decades ago. ➊ ATLANTA: A metro Atlanta woman convicted of fraudulently billing the Georgia Medicaid system has been sentenced to 10 years in prison. Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens says Catherine Pinkard of Clayton County was sentenced last week on a count of Medicaid fraud and theft by taking. Prosecutors say Pinkard was the owner of Metro Atlanta Counseling Services. She was enrolled in the state’s Medicaid program as a provider of child and adolescent counseling and in-home mental health counseling. Authorities say Pinkard submitted several false claims for services that hadn’t been offered or authorized. Prosecutors say Pinkard funneled more than $214,500 in fraudulent claims money into a personal bank account. ➊ ATLANTA: The Georgia

Senate has voted to approve a bill restricting abortion coverage in plans available through the state health insurance exchange. State senators voted 35-18 to advance the bill, which now heads to the House for consideration. The federal health care law allows states to draft legislation prohibiting abortion coverage in qualified health plans offered through an exchange. Supporters of the Georgia effort say 24 states have done so. Democrats opposed the bill, calling it a continuation of a “war on women” and saying it infringes on a woman’s right to choose. Senate Bill 98 also prohibits the state employee health plan from offering abortion coverage except in the case of a medical emergency.

➋ ATHENS: A suspended Athens doctor accused of sexually assaulting a sedated patient has been sentenced to probation. Fifty-two year-old Mark Alan Adams was sentenced in Clarke County Superior Court late last

Adams was found guilty of lying to investigators about having sexual contact with the patient and lying about never being alone with the patient in his office after hours. Adams’ attorney Edward Tolley says his client has always denied accusations of sexual assault and has said the sex was consensual. Adams was sentenced to five years of probation, and the judge ruled that he can’t obtain a medical license for three years.

Medical marijuana bill passes in House By RAY HENRY and CHRISTINA A. CASSIDY Associated Press

ATLANTA — Patients diagnosed with certain illnesses could take a form of medical marijuana under a plan that Georgia’s state legislators backed Monday ahead of an important deadline that sorts out which bills go forward and which will likely fail for the year. Legislative rules force Georgia’s state lawmakers to get their bills approved by at least one chamber of the General Assembly by what’s commonly called “Crossover Day,” or else those bills are unlikely to get to the governor’s desk. That rule can

be bent, but it is difficult. Among the biggest debates was a plan to let people suffering from the side effects of cancer treatment, glaucoma and some seizure disorders to take products derived from cannabis oil in the hope it will ease their symptoms. House lawmakers voted 171-4 to approve the bill. It now heads to the state Senate. The cannabis could be given to patients orally as a liquid, a pill or through injections. State Rep. Allen Peake, R-Macon, the bill’s sponsor, said the cannabis could bring relief for children who suffer from hundreds of seizures daily. He said cannabis oil is low in THC, the active ingredient that produces the mari-

juana high. “It is not a slippery slope toward legalization of cannabis for recreational use,” Peake said. “I stand firmly against that direction and will fight it with all my energy.” Several politicians acknowledged they were initially reluctant to change statewide drug policy during an election year, but Pike urged them not to delay by setting up study committees or holding the bill until next year. “We cannot move fast enough,” he said. Janea Cox hugged her daughter, Haleigh, during the vote. Her daughter has up to 100 seizures daily, and she had lobbied for

the legislation. “We are all so overwhelmed right now,” Cox said, crying. “We had so much support in there, I can’t imagine it not passing. It’s crazy to be a part of history. I think we’re all in shock right now.” There were skeptics. Rep. Sharon Cooper, chairwoman of the Health and Human Service Committee, voted for the proposal but cautioned that it is flawed. Cooper said research colleges that provide medical marijuana under the proposed law could lose federal funding and their officials could be prosecuted. • Rep. Alex Atwood’s bill passes in House, 2A

Savannah tries metal detectors at City Hall Associated Press

SAVANNAH — Savannah’s century-old City Hall is trying out an upgrade that for many government buildings has become a common necessity of modern times — a metal detector placed inside the front door. Visitors to Georgia’s oldest city have long been able to stroll into the rotunda of the gold-domed City Hall building, constructed in 1906, and just sign a guest log kept by a security guard who issues name tags. And while there have been no violent outbursts to prompt a change, some City Council members have complained current safety measures just aren’t good enough. Councilman Tony Thomas said that even some nightclubs in town are “more secure than City Hall.” He raised the issue during a City Council retreat last month, saying he was concerned someone might get killed if officials didn’t take action. So Savannah officials agreed to a trial run screening City Hall

visitors with a metal detector. The Chatham County courthouse loaned a spare machine for the city to try before the mayor and council decide if they want to install one permanently, said Savannah city spokesman Bret Bell. Surveillance cameras have also been added throughout City Hall to enhance security, Bell said. Both the county and federal courthouses in Savannah require visitors to pass through metal detectors. The government building where the Chatham County Commission meets does not, though a newer government building where county tax assessors meet uses metal detectors. Savannah city officials recently renewed their $469,995 contract with a security services firm that provides armed guards for City Hall, two other city office buildings and five local parking garages. Mayor Edna Jackson has said she wants to make sure everyone who comes to City Hall is protected.

Winter weather heats up sales for some companies By JOSEPH PISANI Associated Press

NEW YORK — The harsh winter has been rough for some businesses, but for a lucky few, the frigid weather means more cold, hard cash. Ace Hardware is having its best winter in more than a decade for snow blower and shovel sales. Waterproof boots are on a long backorder at clothing maker L.L. Bean. And more people are staying home and ordering gooey grilled cheese sandwiches and booze from Delivery.com. “The concept of a polar vortex doesn’t feel good, but it’s good for business,” said Kane Calamari, a vice president at Ace Hardware Corp. Much of the country has been in a deep freeze. Only 32 winters have been colder in the last 119 years, according to Jake Crouch, a climate scientist at the National Climatic Data Center, a division of the National Oceanic and Atmosphere Administration. With more Americans stuck indoors, customers are ordering up more meals and arranging to have their laundry picked up through Delivery.com’s website and smartphone app. Sales at the company, which operates in major metro areas such as New York, Chicago and Washington D.C.,

rose 30 percent in January and February compared with the year before. Orders for soups, wine and vodka have spiked. People are “trying to stay warm,” said Neeraj Sharma, the site’s vice president of marketing. “They’re hibernating.” But sooner or later, they have to dig out. Sales of shovels and snow blowers have doubled at Oak Brook, Ill.-based Ace Hardware. The company is also shipping salt and other ice melters to southern regions such as Atlanta, which rarely have to deal with se-

vere weather. Total sales are up 20 percent so far this year compared with a year ago. The bad weather hasn’t been so kind to other companies. Businesses that rely on customers to come to them have been hit hard. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Macy’s Inc. said their sales were hurt because of store closures. At one time during January, about 30 percent of Macy’s total stores were closed. Whole Foods Market Inc. said shoppers are making fewer trips to its grocery stores.

President Obama’s $4 trillion budget appeals to Democrats By ANDREW TAYLOR

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Striving for unity among Democrats rather than compromise with Republicans, President Barack Obama will unveil an election-year budget on Tuesday that drops earlier proposals to cut future Social Security benefits and seeks new money for infrastructure, education and job training. But Obama’s almost $4 trillion budget plan is likely to have a short shelf life. It comes just three months after Congress and the White House agreed to a twoyear, bipartisan budget pact that has already set the parameters for this election year’s budget work. Democrats controlling the Senate have already announced they won’t advance a budget this year and will instead skip ahead to the annual appropriations bills for 2015, relying on new spending “caps” set by December’s budget deal that provide $56 billion less than what Obama wants in 2015.

Obama would divide the extra money equally between the Pentagon and domestic initiatives like boosting manufacturing hubs, job training and preschool programs and cutting energy waste. Republicans are likely to balk at the idea, which would be paid for by curbing special interest tax breaks and making spending cuts elsewhere in the budget. Obama has also announced a four-year, $302 billion plan to boost spending on highways, rail projects and mass transit. Half of the initiative would be financed through corporate taxes. Funding for highway and mass transit projects expires at the end of September, and there’s bipartisan interest in finding a supplemental funding stream to augment stagnant revenues from the $18.4 cents-pergallon gasoline tax. Obama’s budget arrives after a tumultuous year that began with Obama muscling through a 10-year $600 billion-plus tax increase on upper-bracket earners. Feeling stung, Republicans re-

fused to yield on about $80 billion in automatic spending cuts that began in March. Then, conservatives in the GOP forced a 16-day partial government shutdown over funding to implement the nation’s new health insurance program. The small-bore, two-year budget deal struck by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Sen. Patty Murray, DWash., emerged from the wreckage to alleviate the toughest automatic cuts. With no design or expectation of luring Republicans into more budget negotiations in this election year, Obama’s blueprint presents his vision for boosting job growth and favored initiatives like education. The White House announced earlier Obama was dropping a plan opposed by most Democrats in his budget proposal a year ago to slow Social Security cost of living increases. The budget also will flesh out a plan Obama announced in his State of the Union address to expand the earned income tax credit for childless workers.

PITTSBURGH — Disc jockey “Porky” Chedwick, who became a Pittsburgh-area institution by promoting R&B artists in the late 1940s and 1950s, has died. He was 96. Chedwick, whose birth name was George though he informally changed it to Craig, was far better known as Porky. Chedwick was hired as a sportscaster at WHOD-AM in Homestead in 1948, but became well known only after the station let him play music. Chedwick took “black” records which could be heard only on jukeboxes and popularized them on the station, which eventually became WAMO in 1956. — Associated Press

Telecoms push back 2014 BUSINESS 2014 BUSINESS EXPO EXPO on proposed NSA plan Presenting Sponsor Nalley of Brunswick By MARCY GORDON and MARTHA MENDOZA Associated Press

WASHINGTON — When Apple, Google, Microsoft and other tech giants united in outrage last summer over the National Security Agency’s unfettered spying, telecommunications giants such as AT&T, Verizon and Sprint — whose customers are also the targets of secret government spying — remained noticeably mum. But now the phone companies are speaking up. In closed-door meetings with policymakers, they are taking a less accommodating stance with government and rattling the historically tight bond between telecom and the surveillance community. “It’s been extremely unusual for telecoms to resist any requests from the government,” says software engineer Zaki Manian of Palo Alto, who advocates against mass government surveillance. “The telecom companies have a long history of providing raw data dumps to the government and typically taking some money in return and calling it a day,” Manian says. Technology companies typically comply with requests for information about individual us-

ers but resist demands for bulk data. But telecommunications companies share a connection with government unlike that of any other industry. They “have been tied to our national security agencies for all of their history,” says Susan Crawford, a visiting professor at Harvard Law School who was a special assistant to President Barack Obama for science, technology and innovation policy. During World War II and for decades after, telegraph companies such as Western Union —which was controlled by AT&T— turned over copies of international telegrams originating in the U.S. to the NSA and its predecessor agency. In the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s, government agents reviewed tens of thousands of telegrams each month under “Project Shamrock,” deemed by lawmakers to be the biggest intelligence-intercept operation in U.S. history. Since the earliest days of wiretapping in the late 19th century, telephone companies have assisted law enforcement and intelligence agencies. For decades, a series of laws cemented the relationship, including a 1994 wiretapping act that requires telecom companies to build networks that allow law enforcement to eavesdrop in real time.

Gunmen, bombers kill 11 in Pakistan

Witness recalls hearing screams at Pistorius trial By GERALD IMRAY and CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA Associated Press

By ZARAR KHAN and REBECCA SANTANA Associated Press

ISLAMABAD — Gunmen stormed Pakistan’s main court complex in Islamabad on Monday, cutting down fleeing lawyers before blowing themselves up in a rampage that killed 11 people. It was the worst terror attack in years in the capital, which has largely been spared the violence raging in many parts of the country. The bloodshed undermined the government’s efforts to negotiate a peace deal with the main militant group, the Pakistani Taliban, just days after the organization announced a one-month cease-fire for the talks. The Pakistani Taliban denied responsibility for the attack. But the violence underscored the difficulty of negotiations when numerous militant groups are operating in Pakistan. And it raised questions of whether the Taliban can control some of their factions that may oppose talks. The attack stunned the capital, a normally quiet city of wide, tree-lined boulevards that is home to diplomats, generals, aid workers and government officials. It was the deadliest attack in Islamabad since a 2008 truck bombing at the Marriott Hotel killed 54 people. In an assault that lasted roughly 20 minutes, gunmen swarmed through the narrow alleys between the complex’s buildings, hurling grenades and firing automatic weapons wildly, witnesses said. Gunmen broke through a door to one judge’s chambers and shot him to death, while other victims were mowed down in the cafeteria.

A Pakistani man mourns outside a hospital’s morgue, where the bodies of victims of a twin suicide bombing were held Monday in Islamabad, Pakistan. Two suicide bombers blew themselves up at a court complex in the Pakistani capital, killing nearly a dozen and wounding scores in a rare terror attack in the heart of Islamabad, officials said.

One lawyer, Momin Ali, described it as a scene from hell, with attorneys and judges fleeing for their lives amid explosions and gunfire. “My colleague was shot, and there was no one to help him. When I reached him, he was bleeding and crying for help,” he said. In the confusion afterward, it was unclear how many attackers were involved and whether any escaped. At least two were suicide bombers who rushed in, threw hand grenades and started shooting, then detonated the explosives on their bodies, said Islamabad Police Chief Sikander Hayat. One blew himself up outside the office of the lawyers’ union president, the other outside a judge’s office, he said. Lawyer Murad Ali said he saw several attackers brandishing automatic weapons head toward a courtroom and shoot a female lawyer. Ali’s hands were splattered with blood from helping remove four of the dead. Another lawyer, Sardar Gul Nawaz, said the attackers had short beards and wore shalwar kameez, a traditional Pakistani outfit of baggy

pants and a long tunic. Police Inspector Khalid Mahmood Awan said the two suicide bombers were the only attackers. Awan, chief of the Margala police station near the court complex, said that the two carried out their shooting rampage, then, after an exchange of fire with police, blew themselves up. Police searched the compound afterward and found no other gunmen. But others put the number higher. One intelligence official, after examining the scene, said the attackers operated in three groups of four each. When the job was done, the survivors escaped in three waiting vehicles, he said. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media. Police official Jamil Hashmi put the number of attackers at six to eight, and numerous witnesses spoke of seeing more than two. The dead included one judge, three lawyers and a policeman, said Dr. Ayesha Essani, spokeswoman for the hospital.

Deputies: Monitoring interstate Continued from 1A

Faulk and Juliano in marked patrol cars. Jump wants people to know that police, regardless of the agency, are monitoring activity on the interstate. He said the uniformed deputies spend at least a few hours of their work day on the corridor. “But they’re not only on the interstate,” Jump said. “They’re on the secondary roads and in the neighborhoods as well.” And it’s paid off. During their first year of patrol, Jump said the two deputies have: • Seized 68 grams of marijuana, 124 grams of synthetic marijuana and nine grams of schedule

II narcotics • Made 20 arrests • Served 20 warrants • Assisted 35 motorists • Assisted other police agencies 27 times. All of this is in addition to spending more than 400 hours in court and handling other deputy duties like transporting inmates, Jump said. With all of the hard work they have put in, Jump said it is nice to know Faulk and Juliano have been recognized by the state House of Representatives for Price’s arrest. But Jump also knows other police agencies could have very easily made the same arrest. “Anybody could have caught (Price), but it was our day and

our time,” Jump said. “They just happened to see him violating the law. They were performing the duties required of them.” Jump said the more than 20 calls of thanks from people who say they lost money through Price’s alleged schemes have been especially gratifying to the deputies. The callers may not ever get their money back, Jump said, but “they can probably get a little more sleep at night” knowing Price has been caught. • Reporter Michael Hall writes about public safety, environment and other local topics.

Ship: Six sailors exposed to TB

Continued from 1A

The News inquired about the vessel after residents close to the situation expressed concern about sailors infected with TB going out into the community and exposing others. “People with active TB disease may spread the TB germs to other persons, who are usually individuals with whom they have been with in an enclosed space for a prolonged period of time, such as family members and co-workers,” Weems said. The discovery of Tuberculosis on the 14-year-old ship resulted in 22 crew members being quarantined on the cargo vessel while health officials conducted a contact investigation.

The Coastal Health District collaborated with the Southeast Georgia Health System, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Coast Guard, Customs and Border Protection, the Georgia Department of Public Health, the port of Brunswick, and the International Seafarers Center to expedite the investigation, says Weems. Six of the 22 sailors were found to have traces of latent TB infection. At some point the six sailors were exposed to Tuberculosis but didn’t have active TB, didn’t show symptoms and weren’t contagious. “Appropriate treatment was started with instructions for (a) follow up,” said Weems. “The treatment someone gets if it is de-

termined that they have latent TB will help prevent them from getting active TB in the future.” Symptoms of TB can include a bad cough that lasts three weeks or longer, pain in the chest, coughing up blood or sputum, weakness or fatigue, weight loss, no appetite, chills, fever and sweating at night. The Mv Star Isfjord departed from the Brunswick docks just before 6 a.m. Friday morning. It was expected to arrive in Wilmington, N.C., March 1 and had called on the port at Mobile, Ala., before steaming to Brunswick. • Reporter Martin Rand III covers local news.

Thomas attributes the program’s success in St. Marys to a dedicated group of supporters who care about recycling and reducing the amount of trash in landfills. Last year, city residents recycled more than 62 tons that would have gone into the county landfill. This helps extend the landfill’s life and lowers tipping fees to the city, he said. St. Marys City Councilman Bob Nutter said he was pleased with the strong support for recycling. “There was a demand,” he said. “We’ve got a strong citizenry aware of the importance of recycling.” Kearns said she is now trying to convince city officials to go to

single-stream recycling, which would expand the number of items that could be recycled. “It will double our recycled tonnage,” she said. “It saves our landfill and it also generates money.” Thomas said single-stream recycling was recently implemented in Fernandina Beach, Fla., and the tonnage doubled the first year. “I don’t expect St. Marys to double because of the tourism,” he said. “But they would be at least one-third more.” • Reporter Gordon Jackson writes about Camden County and other local topics.

percent of St. Marys residents use their recycling bins. That is more than two times higher than the national average per capita, which is 34 percent. “They have the highest participation rate in the region,” he said. “It’s phenomenal.” Thomas said he didn’t have numbers from communities across the nation served by his company, but said they have to be among the highest anywhere Advanced Disposal operates. Thomas said he tries to keep the program simple to encourage participation. “All you have to do is put it by the curb,” he said.

PRETORIA, South Africa — “Bang ... bang, bang, bang.” The murder trial of Oscar Pistorius opened Monday in South Africa with testimony from a neighbor who described the sound of what she said were four gunshots and recalled the “blood-curdling screams” of a woman who prosecutors say was the girlfriend slain by the onetime star athlete in his home. “It’s the most helpless feeling I’ve ever had in my life,” university lecturer Michelle Burger said of listening to the screams. “I knew something terrible was happening in that house.” The 27-year-old double-amputee runner, whose stature peaked at the 2012 London Olympics and then plummeted when he shot model and television personality Reeva Steenkamp in the predawn hours of Valentine’s Day last year, stood in the dock in a dark gray suit and black tie, writing in a pad and sometimes passing notes to defense lawyers. At one point, he smiled at a person sitting behind him. Steenkamp’s mother, June, sat near Pistorius but there was no communication between them. The proceedings were broadcast on television, though Burger was not shown at her own request, and millions of people around

the world followed a trial where the heady mix of a celebrity defendant and shocking allegations has drawn comparisons to the O.J. Simpson case two decades ago. Prosecutors allege that Pistorius, who has been free on bail, shot Steenkamp after an argument. He has said he killed her after mistaking her for a nighttime intruder in his home, shooting her through the closed door of the toilet cubicle in his bathroom. Steenkamp, 29, was hit three times — in the head, elbow and hip area; a fourth bullet did not hit her. Early testimony focused on whether the screams that Burger said she heard were those of a terrified woman about to be shot to death, as prosecutors allege, or were instead Pistorius’ desperate shrieks for help after a fatal mistake, as his defense lawyers contend. Burger, who lives about 180 meters (196 yards) from Pistorius’ house, gave her account of the sequence of events in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14 last year. “I was woken up by a woman’s petrified screams. I heard her screaming first,” Burger said. “Then I heard her call for help. Then I heard a man call for help three times. I then made a call. ... I gave the phone to my husband and he spoke to security. Afterward, I heard the woman’s petrified screams again.”

More should be done to keep bridge safe

If there is an issue of safety on the Mackay River or the bridge that humps over it, then let’s deal with it. Putting it on the back burner or just thinking about it is not addressing the problem. It’s ignoring it. The Georgia Department of Transportation acknowledges the need to replace the bridge’s fender system, the barrier that prevents vessels from running into the bridge itself. It has been hit by numerous craft over the years, so much so that it must be extensively repaired or replaced. A spokesman with the transportation department says the problem is a current in the river near the structure. It makes it difficult for barges and tugs to clear the Mackay River Bridge without bumping into or bouncing off the fender system. Because the Mackay River is part of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, the Coast Guard or Army Corps of Engineers should be involved. There might

be something that can be or ought to be done to protect watercraft from being forced into the fender by the current. At the very least, one or both federal agencies should take a closer look at the situation. Federal budget cuts are not a reason to neglect one’s duty, particularly when human safety could be compromised. The Georgia Department of Transportation should be equally concerned and involved. It’s responsible for the bridge, as well as all the motor traffic crossing it daily. It should impress upon the Coast Guard or Corps of Engineers how important it is to determine whether there is a serious problem here. The Glynn County Commission, the spokesperson for this community, ought to be asking all responsible agencies – the Coast Guard, Corps of Engineers and the transportation department – to make sure a highway and bridge that’s used by thousands of motorists daily are safe and stay safe.

Another view | Steve Breen

Whether saber rattling or not, word is out that the White House is “rethinking its options” on intervening in the Syrian war. The collapse of John Kerry’s Geneva 2 talks between the rebels and regime, the lengthening casualty lists from barrelbomb attacks, and a death toll approaching 150,000, are apparently causing second thoughts. All the usual suspects are prodding Obama to plunge in, if not with troops, at least with a no-fly zone to prevent Bashar Assad from using his air power. Our frustration is understandable. Yet it does not change the reality. This is not America’s war. Never was. As Obama said, it is “somebody else’s civil war.” Still, the case against intervention needs to be restated. First and foremost, Obama has no authority to go to war in Syria, for Congress has never voted to authorize such a war. An unprovoked attack on Syria would be an impeachable act. Last August, the American people were almost unanimously opposed to intervention. The firestorm they created was why Congress ran away from the Obama-Kerry plan for missile strikes. So if Obama has no authority to attack Syria, and America does not want a war, why, after Iraq and Afghanistan, would Obama divide his nation and plunge his country into that civil war? What are the arguments for intervention? Same old, same old. America has a moral obligation to end the barbarism. At the time of Rwanda we said, “Never again!” Yet it is happening again. And we have a “Responsibility to Protect” Syrians from a dictator slaughtering his own people. But while what is happening in Syria is horrible, all Middle East ethnic-civilsectarian wars tend to unfold this way. And if there is a “moral” obligation to intervene, why does it not apply to Israel and Turkey, Syria’s nearest neighbors? Why does that moral duty not apply to the European Union, upon whose doorstep Syria sits? Why is it America’s moral obligation, 5,000 miles away? It is not. The Turks, Israelis, EU and Gulf Arabs who hate Assad would simply like for us to come and fight their war for them. The Washington Post says we must address not only the moral “nightmare,” but also the “growing threat ... to vital U.S. interests.” Exactly what “vital interests” is the Post talking about? Syria has been ruled by the Assads for 40 years. And how have

Secretary of State John Kerry speaks about the annual State Department Human Rights report Thursday at the State Department in Washington.

our vital interests been imperiled? And if our vital interests are imperiled, how much more so are those of Israel and Turkey? Yet neither has chosen to invest the blood of their sons in bringing Assad down. If we have an enemy in this fight, it is al-Qaida, the al-Nusra Front, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, all of which are terrorist and implacably anti-American. And who is keeping these enemies of ours out of Damascus? Assad, Hezbollah, Iran and our old friend Vladimir Putin. And who has been supplying the terrorists? Our friends in the Gulf, with weapons funneled through Turkey, our NATO ally. Have the interventionists who are beside themselves watching all these insurrections and wars breaking out thought through what is likely to happen if we intervene? The Syrian war would become a more savage affair, as Assad would know he was now in a fight to the finish. As U.S. air power was committed to the defeat of Assad, his allies would likely provide more weapons for his defense. Casualties could soar and the probability of a wider war would increase geometrically. Should Assad fall, his routed soldiers

and Alawaites and Christians would face reprisals for which we would be morally responsible, as it was our intervention that brought this about. We might have to intervene with troops to stop a massacre by jihadists. And if Assad fell, pro-Western rebels would likely have to fight the al-Qaida rebels for power. Syria could come apart, and we would own it. Obama’s frustration is understandable. He said two years ago Assad must go. Assad flipped him off. Obama said use of chemical weapons would be a “red line” which, if crossed, would bring serious consequences. Assad’s troops apparently crossed that line. What did we do? Worked with Russia to remove the weapons. Washington is enraged that Putin continues to support Assad. But Assad’s regime is the recognized and legal government of Syria. Russia has a naval base in Latakia, is owed billions by Damascus, and has been Syria’s ally for decades. Why should Putin abandon Assad at our request? What have we done for him lately? Besides send Billy Jean King to his Olympics? Why, Putin might ask, should he abandon his Syrian allies rather than us, the Turks, and Gulf Arabs abandoning ours? There is a grave moral issue here — for us. How, under just war theory, can we continue to sustain a conflict that is killing thousands every month with no end in sight? Are we not morally obliged to try to stop such a war?

Teach children lessons Dear Dr. Graham: I know teenagers often rebel against their parents, but I admit I went overboard and have been a rebel ever since. I don’t know why I’m writing, but we have two children now, and I’m scared because I realize I don’t have any idea how to be a good father. — J. McF. Dear J. McF.: The most important thing I want you to know is that God wants you to be a good father — and with His help you can be. After all, He gave your children to you, and He wants you to see them as a gift, as well as a responsibility. The Bible says, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him” (Psalm 127:3). Our children learn from us in two ways: by looking at our lives, and by listening to our words. This is why the first step we need to take to become good parents is to look at ourselves, and ask what kind of example we’re setting for them. You mention you’ve been rebellious much of your life. Do you still insist on going your own way, no matter

the consequences? Are you still alienated from your parents, who are also your children’s grandparents? In other words, what will your children learn about life as they watch you in the years ahead? Face this honestly, and then turn to Jesus Christ and ask Him to come into your life to forgive you and help you do what is right. Our children also learn from our words, and from the lessons we try to teach them. Get a Bible storybook and read it to your children and pray with them every night. Make the Bible your own source of wisdom, also. Proverbs would be an excellent place for you to start.

My Answer

Just before the bankruptcy of the Mt. Gox bitcoin digital-money (or virtualcurrency) exchange, Japanese finance minister Taro Aso predicted the inevitable failure. “No one recognizes them as a real currency,” he told reporters. “I expected such a thing to collapse.” I totally agree with Mr. Aso. For weeks and weeks, I have been tweeting and broadcasting that bitcoin is not real money. It is not a reliable medium of exchange, nor is it a reliable store of value. It has no central-bank regulation, network operations or even centralized issuance. And because of its wild price fluctuations, bitcoin can never be a reliable payment system. The virtual currency originally offered a way to make transactions across borders without third parties such as banks. But the collapse of Mt. Gox — with 850,000 bitcoins unaccounted for, summing to $425 million of losses, according to many reports — illustrates the grand failure of this digital experiment. Venture capitalist Ezra Galston writes in the Wall Street Journal, “without a regulatory framework, credible payment processors — such as PayPal, Dwolla or Square — cannot service bitcoin exchanges. And because payment processors are vital for converting fiat currencies into virtual deposits, bitcoin operators will be forced to move downstream into the black market.” Mr. Galston concludes by asserting that “the bitcoin community must embrace external regulation to ensure that credible vendors may participate in payment processing.” Hundreds of bitcoin supporters have tweeted attacks at me for arguing that bitcoin is not real money. But historically, money must be a reliable medium of exchange and a reliable store of value. Bitcoin meets neither of these definitions. How can you transact using so-called digital money when prices fluctuate by hundreds of dollars in the space of an hour or less? You might think you bought something for $500. But by the time the retailer processes payment, the so-called

Gox exchange and accusations it suffered a catastrophic theft have drawn renewed regulatory attention to a currency created in 2009 as a way to make transactions across borders without third parties such as banks.

digital-currency price drops to $100. Both buyers and sellers lose big because bitcoin is not a reliable medium of exchange with a dependable store of value. It is backed by nothing but pure speculation. You can’t even hedge it because there’s no interest rate. You can barely even get a price quote — not for the value of the product being bought or sold, but for the value of the monetary medium of exchange. Years ago, Arthur Laffer warned that many currencies around the world lacked “the moneyness of money.” He was referring to third-world-type currencies. But bitcoin would qualify as well. Now, I’m not going to defend the value of the dollar, which has depreciated sub-

stantially over time. But this unfortunate depreciation has happened over long periods of time — not 10-minute intervals. Of course, I’d love to see a gold- and commodity-backed dollar. And maybe future bitcoin reformers can restructure in such a way. But the dollar is accepted around the world by governments, banks, businesses and consumers because it is a reliable medium of exchange, even if its store of value has deteriorated. The dollar serves as a payment mechanism, has a central issuer and is regulated. When the bitcoin people created their digital money as a way of avoiding banks and regulators, they forgot, or maybe never learned, the classic day-to-day requirements of a currency. So fellas, please go back to the drawing board. I’m all for the digital revolution and trading assets online. But money is different. It must conform to certain longheld principles. That’s why bitcoin is not real money now — and why without huge reforms, it will never qualify as real money in the future.

Obama says tough choices nearing in Mideast talks By JULIE PACE

Russia sets Ukraine agenda with diplomacy and threats

By DAVID McHUGH and DALTON BENNETT Associated Press

KIEV, Ukraine — Russian troops said to be 16,000 strong tightened their stranglehold on Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula Monday, openly defying the U.S. and the European Union and rattling world capitals and stock markets. The West struggled to find a way to get Russia to back down, but with little beyond already threatened diplomatic and economic sanctions, global markets fell sharply over the prospect of violent upheaval in the heart of Europe. For its part, Moscow reiterated its price for ending the crisis: restoration of a deal reached with the opposition less than two weeks ago to form a national unity government in Kiev that represents pro-Russian as well as Ukrainian interests, with new elections to be held by December. Ukraine, meanwhile, accused Russia of piracy for blocking two of the besieged country’s warships and ordering them to surrender or be seized. The U.S. originally estimated that 6,000 Russian troops were dispatched to Crimea, but Ukraine’s mission to the United Nations said

Monday that 16,000 had been deployed. That stoked fears that the Kremlin might carry out more land grabs in pro-Russian eastern Ukraine. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was headed to Kiev in an expression of support for Ukraine’s sovereignty, and the EU threatened a raft of punitive measures as it called an emergency summit for Thursday. But it was Russia that appeared to be driving the agenda. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at a U.N. Human Rights Council session in Geneva that Ukraine should return to an agreement signed last month by proRussian President Viktor Yanukovych — but not Moscow — to hold early elections and surrender some powers. Yanukovych fled the country after sealing the pact with the opposition and foreign ministers of France, Germany and Poland. “Instead of a promised national unity government,” Lavrov said of the fledgling new administration in Kiev, “a government of the victors has been created.” The latest flashpoint came when Ukrainian authorities said Russian troops had issued an ultimatum for two of the besieged country’s warships to surrender or be seized.

“I call on the leadership of the Russian Federation. Stop the aggression, stop the provocations, stop the piracy! These are crimes, and you will be called to account for them,” said acting Ukrainian President Oleksandr Turchynov. “The commanders and crews are ready to defend their ships. They are defending Ukraine,” Turchynov said in a televised address to the nation after a military spokesman said Ukraine’s corvette Ternopil and command ship Slavutych were being blocked by four Russian navy ships in the Crimean port of Sevastopol. Vladimir Anikin, a Russian defense ministry spokesman, dismissed the accusation as nonsense but refused to elaborate. In Washington, the State Department warned of a “dangerous escalation” and said the U.S. would hold Moscow directly accountable for any threat to Ukraine’s navy. Russia is “on the wrong side of history” in Ukraine, President Barack Obama said, adding that continued military action would be “a costly proposition for Russia.” Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Obama said the U.S. was considering economic and diplomatic options that will isolate Russia, and called on Congress to work on an aid package for Ukraine.

Invasion of Ukraine is not Putin’s only available option

By LYNN BERRY Associated Press

MOSCOW — President Vladimir Putin knows there is little the West can do to get him to reverse his mobilization in Crimea, or to stop him from sending additional troops into other parts of Ukraine. But trade sanctions against Russia could be painful, and there are ways for him to get what he wants — keeping Ukraine from slipping out of his grasp — without ratcheting up the military pressure. The plan Russia pushed Monday calls on Ukrainian politicians to return to their earlier agreement to form a government of national unity. Importantly, the presidential election under that scenario would be held in December and not in May, as the government formed by victorious protesters has planned. This would buy the Kremlin time. In the coming months the Ukrainian economy could go into free fall, with the West helpless to stop it. There would be new pressure within Ukraine to turn to Russia. A similar thing happened when Ukrainians grew weary of the pro-Western leaders swept into power by the 2004 Orange Revolution. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called on Ukraine to return to a Feb. 21 agreement between Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and his opponents just before Yanukovych fled to Russia and his opponents named a new government. Ironically, that agreement received the blessings of the West, but not Russia, at the time. Lavrov said representatives of Russia-friendly Ukrainian regions should be

WASHINGTON — Seeking to salvage an elusive Middle East peace plan, President Barack Obama pressed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Monday to make the “tough decisions” needed to move forward on talks with the Palestinians. But facing a U.S.-imposed April deadline, the Israeli leader declared pessimistically that, “Israel has been doing its part and, I regret to say, the Palestinians have not.” Netanyahu’s comments underscored the slim prospects of reaching an agreement to the long-running conflict, despite a robust effort led by Secretary of State John Kerry. Obama and Netanyahu spoke before an Oval Office meeting on a snowy Monday in Washington. The meeting marked a more direct foray into the peace negotiations by Obama, who will also meet at the White House later this month with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. “It is still possible to create two states, a Jewish state of Israel and a state of Palestine, with people living side by side in peace and security,” Obama said. “But it’s difficult. It requires compromise on all sides.” While the relationship between Obama and Netanyahu has improved after early tensions, the two leaders still grapple with deep differences, particularly on Iran. Israel sees Iran’s nuclear program as an existential threat and fears Tehran is using U.S.-led negotiations to stall while it builds a bomb. Obama, seeking to reassure Netanyahu, affirmed his “absolute commitment that Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon.” Netanyahu insisted Monday that Iran must suspend all uranium enrichment, though any final deal between the international

community and Iran would likely leave the Islamic republic with a small enrichment capacity. “No country has a greater stake in this,” said Netanyahu, who is in Washington to speak at the annual meeting of AIPAC, the largest pro-Israel lobby. Obama, who has twice addressed the conference, is not speaking this year, though Kerry was scheduled to speak Monday night. In excerpts released ahead of his speech, Kerry outlined what he called “the endgame” in the peace negotiations. He said a peace deal must include security arrangements that leave Israel more secure, mutual recognition of states for the Jewish and Palestinian people, an end to all conflict, a just solution for Palestinian refugees, and a resolution “that finally allows Jerusalem to live up to its name as the city of peace.” Kerry has made nearly a dozen trips to the region over the past year and is seeking to get both sides to sign a framework by the end of April that would serve as a guide for negotiations on a permanent solution to the conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians. The framework aims to

address the core issues in the dispute, including borders between Israel and a future Palestine, the fate of Palestinian refugees and the status of the holy city of Jerusalem. Even as Obama and Netanyahu met, developments in the Middle East underscored the difficulties in settling the intractable conflict. New Israeli housing statistics showed that Israel began building more than twice as many West Bank settlement homes in 2013 than it did the previous year. The Palestinians consider settlements built on territories captured by Israel in 1967 to be illegal and an obstacle to peace. In Gaza, meanwhile, Israel launched an airstrike that killed a Palestinian militant, officials and his family said. The Palestinians seek the West Bank, east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip — that Israel captured in 1967 — for an independent state. They have demanded that Israel agree to base the final borders with a future Palestine on the pre-1967 lines, with small land swaps that would allow Israel to keep some of the Jewish settlements it has built in the West Bank and east Jerusalem.

brought into the new government. “Instead of a promised national unity government, a ‘government of the victors’ has been created,” he said at U.N. meetings in Geneva. This has been the position of the Kremlin all along, but now it is negotiating from a position of strength. Russia has taken control of Crimea, a Ukrainian peninsula where the Russian Black Sea Fleet is based. Russian troops controlled all Ukrainian border posts and all military bases on Monday. Putin also has left open the option of sending troops into eastern and southern Ukraine, where many ethnic Russians live. “We are talking about protection of our citizens and compatriots,” Lavrov said Monday. This has raised fears in Kiev and the West that Russia will annex these regions as well. The current instability plays

into Moscow’s hand by making it more difficult for the new government to persuade the International Monetary Fund to provide the billions of dollars in loans that Ukraine needs to avoid default. An IMF delegation was to arrive in Kiev on Tuesday. Putin cannot afford for Russia to cede influence over Ukraine to the West. The country of 46 million people is an important trade partner, holds pipelines that carry Russian natural gas to Europe and is central to his ambitions of restoring Moscow’s influence over much of the former Soviet Union. The Crimean Peninsula is of particular importance, both strategically and sentimentally. For Russians, Ukraine is part of their history and their faith, and family ties run deep. Ukraine, which became independent with the 1991 Soviet collapse, has always seemed like an artificial state to many Russians, including Putin.

The Glynn Academy baseball team did all its damage in the first inning Monday, then pitched its way to a 4-1 win over rival Brunswick High at Historic Edo Miller Park. The Red Terrors avoided their third straight defeat after losing twice Friday — 7-2 to Irwin County and 10-5 to Oconee County — at the annual Baseball at the Beach event. Zach Lamper accounted for all three of the Terrors’ hits in Monday’s win, but Glynn (4-2) got plenty of help from a poor night of defense and pitching from the Pirates. Brunswick (3-2) committed five errors, including three in the first inning, and the Pirates pitching staff combined for 12 walks and four

wild pitches. On offense, the Pirates had just three hits and struck out 10 times. “We handed them the ball game is what we did,” BHS coach Al Otte said. “Real simple. We didn’t pitch well or throw off-speed over the plate. You have to live by the first-pitch strike. If you throw 68 to 72 percent first-pitch strikes, you’re going to be in the ball game. If you don’t, you’re not. “In the games we’ve won, we’ve had maybe

one or two walks in the game. We put the ball in play and made things happen. That’s the difference. With that many walks and us having that many strikeouts, you’re not going to win any games.” Brunswick’s only run came in the first inning when Trey McGee drove home Kyle Bialousz with a double to give the Pirates a 1-0 advantage. In the bottom of the inning, things went downhill in a hurry for Otte’s team. Dalton Flournoy started the game for the Pirates, but was pulled in favor of Andrew Johnson before recording an out.

KISSIMMEE, Fla. — Freddy Garcia ran his streak of perfect innings to five in his bid to earn a spot in the Braves’ rotation, Mets’ top prospect Noah Syndergaard pitched two scoreless innings in his Grapefruit League debut and the New York Mets beat Atlanta 6-2 Monday. The 21-year-old Syndergaard struck out leadoff hitter Jason Heyward on a 98 mph fastball, then Evan Gattis on three fastballs to start the second. The righthander allowed just one hit over two scoreless innings. “That’s a lot of weight coming off my shoulders right there,” Syndergaard said of striking out Heyward. “I feel like I’m pitching to my strengths, and one of them is being able to locate my fastball really well. It was very encouraging, because I know that lineup is a big threat (with) a lot of thunder.” In contrast, Garcia, 37, used an assortment of mostly slow stuff to retire nine straight Mets, three on strikeouts, after retiring all six Detroit batters he faced while fanning two in the spring opener. Syndergaard, acquired from Toronto as part of the trade for R.A. Dickey, is projected to start the season with Triple-A Las Vegas but has already shown his potential. Ryan Doumit got the hit off Syndergaard, lining a fastball to the opposite field with one out in the second inning to cap an eight-pitch at-bat, but the veteran switch-hitter was still impressed. “You see a lot of guys that throw 96 and 97 mph during the season, that they’re not throwing 96 or 97 right now,” Doumit said. “I didn’t know anything about the kid coming into today, but I sure won’t forget his name now.” The Braves (0-6) are the only major league team without a victory this spring.

NBA missing the boat on a truly ‘masked’ opportunity LeBron James’ broken nose created a new NBA fashion trend. Well, for one game at least. James broke his nose in a Feb. 21 win at Oklahoma City when Serge Ibaka waxed him on the face trying to keep the league’s best player from driving and scoring. Ibaka failed to stop the basket, but he did inadvertently help James become a super hero. After missing a game against Chicago because of the injury, James returned to the court for a home contest against the New York Knicks sporting a stylish black mask to protect his nose. It was the closest thing to having Batman play in the NBA.

Buddy Hughes Columnist bhughes@TheBrunswick News.com

Hughes’ Views

The Masked Man gave his usual superhero effort against the Knicks, scoring 31 points on 13 of 19 shooting in a 108-82 drubbing of the Knicks. But the black mask was the star of the show, especially on someone like James. LeBron always projects an effortless cool — the kind of guy who doesn’t have to work hard to be cool, he just is cool. It’s the same vibe celebrities like

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Samuel L. Jackson and Matthew McConaughey possess. Fans went bonkers over the mask. Social media ate it up, and the NBA had a legitimate trend on its hands — until it put the kibosh on the whole deal. Apparently the powers that be didn’t like the black mask. They had the same problem when Cleveland all-star Kyrie Irving broke a bone in his face and donned a black mask. The protective mask is nothing new to the NBA. A clear mask became the trademark of veteran wing player Richard Hamilton, most famous for his time with Detroit, after a few broken noses early in his career necessitated

his wearing it all the time to prevent permanent damage. So the NBA has no problem with people wearing the mask for almost their entire careers. It just doesn’t want players to wear one with any personality. Is there a competitive advantage to having a black or colored mask? I don’t see how there could be. The NBA is supposed to be the fun sports league. The NFL or “No Fun League” fines players for wearing the wrong cleats. Baseball has some pizazz with its uniforms, but the game itself plods along at times. Even when the NBA made what seemed like a stodgy move with its dress code, players brought a lot of style and

personality to the postgame press conference with extremely fashionable suits. Why can’t they do that with a broken nose? The NBA is also missing out on a potential revenue stream. How many fans would buy a mask with a team logo or colors on it, especially if it was attached to a prominent star like James? If you don’t think people are interested in that, ask the WWE how much they’ve made off the sell of Rey Mysterio masks. There would have to be some rules. First and foremost, there has to be a medical reason for the mask. As much as I love professional wrestling, I don’t want the NBA to look like a bunch of masked luchadores playing

basketball. Second, if the mask is going to be one solid color, the options have to be limited to white, black and the team’s primary colors. However, there would be some leeway for special occasions. If you wanted to rock a special red and green mask for Christmas Day games or a USA-themed masked for Memorial Day, have at it. Basketball is supposed to be fun. Let the players who took an unwanted shot to the face have some. • Buddy Hughes is executive news editor and sports features writer.

the Pirates. Add three wild pitches to the equation, and Lamper, Josh Robison, Paul Anderson and Matt Coiner all crossed the plate in succession to give the Terrors four runs off just one hit. Johnson then struck out two and forced a ground out to end the inning. Despite its struggles, Brunswick found itself in a position to cut into the lead in the top of the fourth inning. Glynn had several opportunities to blow the game open, but left 12 runners on base after the first inning and came up empty in two bases-loaded situations. The Terrors had the sacks full in the bottom of the third with just one out, but Johnson fanned both Sam Stalvey and Lamper to get out of the jam. Faced with an identical opportunity in the top half of the next inning, the Pirates couldn’t capitalize. Mason Graham, who got the start for Glynn but pitched just one inning, was relieved by Lamper.

Brunswick High’s Kyle Bialousz dives back to first base to avoid the tag of Glynn Academy first baseman Sam Stalvey on a pickoff attempt during their game Monday. The Red Terrors won 4-1.

Lamper was pulled after giving up three walks in the fourth, and Josh Robison came in and held Glynn’s lead intact by getting a strikeout and a popout. Glynn coach Landon Nelson cited that as a big moment in the game. “That was a rally killer for them and a huge morale boost for our guys,” Nelson said. Despite the walks, Lamper earned the win after allowing no runs or hits in relief of Graham. Robison was credited with the save after pitching 3 2/3 shutout innings with seven strikeouts. Nelson said he thought of removing Robison after the sixth, but the senior talked him out of it. “(Lamper) did a great job on the hill,” Nelson said. “Josh Robison

came in after him and did a great job. I could tell he wanted it in the seventh inning.” Before the game, Glynn Academy recognized 14-year-old Ansley Jones, an eighth-grade student at Jane Macon Middle School who was diagnosed with leukemia four months ago. The team held a silent auction for Jones during the game. Jones was scheduled to throw out the first pitch but was unable to return home in time after attending a cheerleading competition in Dallas, where snowy conditions grounded her flight. • Sports Reporter Nathan Deen writes about local sports.

Knights win baseball opener The Brunswick News

A sacrifice fly by William Aylward in the sixth inning Saturday proved to be the difference as the Frederica Academy baseball team won its season opener 5-4 over Hilton Head Christian Academy at their home field. On St. Simons Island, Aylward’s fly ball brought home Will Bowdoin for the tiebreaking run, and Aylward retired the visitors in order in the top of the seventh inning to wrap up the victory. Marshall Dudley led the hit parade for the Frederica team, going 2 for 3 at the plate with

three runs batted in. He drove home Carter Rowland with a single in the first inning for FA’s first run, douMarshall bled home Nick Dudley Harrison and Dylan Reyna in the third inning, then scored himself on Bowdoin’s single four pitches later. Hilton Head scored twice in the third and two more times in the fourth to pull even with the Knights before Aylward’s fly ball plated the game-winner.

The first five batters in the order scored all the Knights’ runs in the victory and accounted for all but one of FA’s William six hits. Aylward Dudley, Reyna and Alex Cutia all had doubles, and Rowland had two stolen bases. Aylward picked up the pitching win after tossing two scoreless innings with two strikeouts, no walks and just one hit allowed. The Knights face the Coastal Hurricanes today in Savannah.

The GA girls finished second in their portion of the event, falling 3-2 to Berrien in the championship match after defeating Thomasville 5-0 and Lowndes 4-1 in the first and second rounds, respectively. “I am very proud of our boys because they had a little adversity in both the Valdosta and Lowndes matches and found a way to work through it with a win,” said GA tennis coach Rooks. “Steven Tracy shows us every day why he is our No. 1. He is playing some of his best tennis right now, and I think it’s because he shows up every day with no excuses and finds a way to put forth his best effort in everything he works on. He really sets the tone for our boys. “The girls played hard, but Berrien clearly wanted it a little more than we did.

The Frederica Academy golf team was victorious Monday in its season opener at Jekyll Island Golf Club. The five-time defending Georgia Independent School Association state champion Knights shot a combined 296 to win on Park the Pine Lakes Brady course by 11 strokes over second-place Augusta Eagle in the 14-team field. Augusta Prep was third at 310. Park Brady led the Frederica team with a 5-under 67, which tied a school record and was the low round of the event. Edmund Burke’s Jay Mobley was second in the individual competition, and FA’s McCollugh Pickens was third with an evenpar 72. Rounding out the winning team’s score was a 78 by Gray Johnson, a 79 by Mac Patch and an 83 by Thomas Hogan. The Frederica B team — led by Carter Lawson’s 77 — shot 329 and finished seventh overall. “What a day for Park Brady,” said FA golf coach Tom Willis.

“He had six birdies on the day with only one bogey, and it was quite windy out there, especially late in the afternoon. He’s been capable of shooting that for over a year now, but just hasn’t put it all together until now. It’s great to see. And McCollugh Pickens was steady all day en route to a 72, his low score as a Knight. He’s picked up where he left off last year with strong play in region and state. “Carter Lawson’s 77 was a personal best to lead the B team. His swing is looking good and it showed in his score. Overall, it was a good day for the team and a good start to the year.” FA senior Patch, said Willis, has committed to play his college golf at Berry College in Rome where former Knights standout Cole Ackerman is a freshman on the Vikings golf team. The Knights tee it up again Monday against Pinewood at Sea Palms Resort on St. Simons Island.

Golf: Woods ‘looks a tired 38’

Continued from 8A

had a “WD” at the Honda Classic when he withdrew after 13 holes on the final round on Sunday. The question now is how long he will be MIA. The leaders were finishing up the front nine when attention shifted from the golf course to the PGA National parking lot that suddenly was swarming with police. Some two dozen reporters and photographers were waiting for Woods. He finally showed up in a white passenger van, changed out of his shoes and then was driven off in a black Mercedes-Benz to his home

just north on Jupiter Island. Just like last time — just like always — only Woods knows the amount of the pain and the degree of the injury. He said he felt “lower back problems with spasms” as he was warming up Sunday morning. On the third hole, he hit a tee shot so far to the right that it wound up in a water hazard to the left of the sixth green. And when he played the sixth hole, he pulled his tee shot into the water. Six holes into the final round, Woods already was 5 over for the day and 12 shots out of the lead. He said he would get treatment

every day to “calm it down.” As for playing next week at Doral, he said he would wait until Thursday to see how it feels. The Blue Monster is more blue than ever after a redesign ordered by new owner Donald Trump. Woods is the defending champion at the Cadillac Championship, though the course where he has won four times is not what it used to be. But this isn’t about whether he can play Doral or Bay Hill two weeks later, or how he will fare at Augusta National next month. The injuries are starting to pile up since he returned from the chaos in his personal life.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Challenged for the first time under Major League Baseball’s expanded replay system, umpires got it right. The umps went 3 for 3 Monday as MLB tried out the new format at three spring training games. The first test came at 3:06 p.m. in Fort Myers, Fla., after first base umpire Fieldin Culbreth ruled Toronto shortstop Munenori Kawasaki’s throw pulled Jared Goedert off the bag in the sixth inning. “I’m not too sure that you’re not right here,” Culbreth said Blue Jays manager John Gibbons told him, “but since we haven’t done it before, let’s go take a look.” Culbreth answered: “OK. That’s what it’s for.” After 2 minutes, 34 seconds, replay umpire Brian O’Nora relayed his call by headset, confirming that Minnesota batter Chris Rahl was safe. During the wait, Rahl said he realized he perhaps was part of history. “It’s kind of funny. I was thinking, ‘Is this the first one?”’ he said. O’Nora made the final ruling from a satellite truck outside the stadium. During the regular season, umpires on the field will check with the replay booth in New York, where an MLB umpire

will make the final call. Later in the game, Culbreth rotated and took a turn in the truck, confirming another safe call at first base. In the eighth inning, Doug Bernier of the Twins was called safe on a close play at first. As Culbreth studied the replay, the ballpark sound system played a Rolling Stones song with the familiar lyric, “I can’t get no satisfaction.” The call was confirmed, Bernier was safe. Extra replay also was in place for two games in Arizona — the Los Angeles Angels vs. Arizona Diamondbacks in Scottsdale and the Chicago Cubs against Milwaukee in Phoenix. Each team in the majors will have at least five exhibition games with the new system in place. In January, owners approved the use of additional video replay to review most calls other than ballsand-strikes. Previously, umpires could only go to replay to review home runs and boundary calls. Moments after the first replay call, Angels manager Mike Scioscia wasted little time in using his challenge. In the top of the second, Luis Jimenez of the Angels tried to steal second. Catcher Bobby Wilson’s throw was high but second base umpire Bill Miller ruled that Aaron Hill tagged the runner out.

Scioscia bounded out of the dugout and charged toward Miller to argue, just like managers always have done. Instead, though, he chose to use his challenge. After two of the umpires made a quick visit to the Angels dugout to communicate with the replay umpire, the call was upheld. “We weren’t trying to make a mockery out of it,” Scioscia said of using the challenge so soon. “We thought it was a pretty close play.” There was only one angle available with the limited camera work of a spring training telecast. “If we have 15 angles of that,” Scioscia said, “there’s a possibility it gets reversed.” That review took 2:31. Since he lost the challenge, Scioscia had no more. “I don’t think it’s going to take much time in the logistics. That will smooth out,” he said. “As far as the strategy of it, that’s going to take a lot. It might be something you win, but you know you need that challenge to save the big play somewhere.” Under the new rules, each manager has one challenge. If the first challenge is successful, the manager gets a second. From the seventh inning on, if the manager is out of challenges, the umpire can decide to have the play reviewed.

UVa men crack college top 10

Associated Press

Virginia jumped from No. 12 to fifth in this week’s poll, the Cavaliers’ first appearance in the Top Ten since the 2001-02 season, when they reached as high as No. 4. Saturday’s win over Syracuse gave Virginia its first outright Atlantic Coast Conference title since 1980-81. The Cavaliers, featuring threetime national player of the year Ralph Sampson, were in the Top Ten the entire season, spent four weeks at No. 1 and reached the Final Four. Virginia was No. 24 in this season’s preseason Top 25 and fell to 25th in the first week of the regular season. The Cavaliers dropped out of the poll the next week and didn’t return until four weeks ago at No. 20. They moved up every week until reaching No. 5 on Monday. OPENING BID: The first spot in the NCAA tournament’s field of 68 can be decided Friday when Harvard visits Yale. The Ivy League is the only one of the 32 conferences with an automatic bid not to have a tournament. Harvard has clinched at least a share of the title for a fourth straight season. If there is

MOM...I have a headache...

igraine headaches are thought to be caused by changes in neurotransmitters or blood vessels in the brain. These changes send pain signals to the brain’s pain centers bringing on the headache often with associated nausea, vomiting or light sensitivity. In general, kids get the same types of headaches as adults. And headaches often are hereditary, so if a parent gets them, their kids might too. Some of the many potential headache triggers include:

Study suggests less obese toddlers ATLANTA — Toddler obesity shrank sharply in the past decade, a new study suggests. While promising, it’s not proof that the nation has turned a corner in the battle against childhood obesity, some experts say. The researchers found that obesity among children ages 2 to 5 decreased to 8 percent, from 14 percent a decade ago. That would represent a 43 percent drop. But the only decline was seen in preschoolers, not in older children. And some experts note that even the improvement in toddlers wasn’t a steady decline, and say it’s hard to know yet whether preschooler weight figures are permanently curving down or merely jumping around.

Teens’ indoor tanning tied to risky behavior CHICAGO — Government research links indoor tanning by teenagers with other risks including binge drinking, unhealthy dieting and sexual activity. Scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found other behaviors were also more common among high school students who use sun lamps or indoor tanning beds than teens who don’t. – The Brunswick News and Associated Press

For every minute that passes without cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation for a heart attack victim, the chance of survival decreases by 7 to 10 percent, according to the American Heart Association. It’s a three- to seven-minute window of opportunity that increases the odds of survival. Brunswick resident Sheila Glaeser knows that all too well. Having had two open heart surgeries since 2001, she knows how serious heart disease is, especially for women. That’s why Glaeser is dedicated to making sure that any individual who experiences a sudden cardiac arrest is treated in a quick manner, no matter where they are. “Cardiac arrest is a leading cause of death. More than 360,000 cardiac arrests happen each year outside of a hospital. Someone dies from SCA (sudden cardiac arrest) every two minutes in the country,” Glaeser said. “Many do not realize that heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the U.S., killing more women than all cancers combined.” With the help of Mathew Hill, executive director of the Brunswick Downtown Development Authority, she organized a fundraiser for the purchase and promotion of automated external defibrillators, or AEDs. “I realized there was not a single AED in all of the Historic District – not in the government buildings, the Ritz Theatre, the businesses on Newcastle Street, or the (Brunswick) Police Department,” Glaeser said, who has experience using AEDs during her time as a flight attendant for Delta Air Lines. Glaeser and Hill created I HEART Brunswick, a five-day celebration to raise awareness of heart health and AEDs. The program’s schedule, which began Monday with a So Glo yoga class at Old City Hall and a

kickoff party at Tipsy McSway’s, is lined with family-friendly events throughout the week at businesses along Newcastle Street in downtown Brunswick, including a 50/50 raffle that has some hefty prizes such as Coastal Kitchen’s wine dinner for six. Owner Jeff Montaigne says it’s for a worthy cause. “It’s a neat fundraiser where you can see the AEDs in action, and it’s something substantive that can save a life,” Montaigne said. “It’s a good way to support the downtown Brunswick community.” Last year, the event offered abbreviated CPR/AED courses throughout the week, but attendance was not great. “This year, we hope to use some of our fundraising to offer free or reduced rate CPR/AED certification courses later in the spring,” Glaeser said. Hill says it’s a great opportunity to raise awareness of heart-saving solutions, such as AEDs, and to make people aware of AEDs in

their vicinity. “We wanted fun events that would allow a variety of people to participate in,” Hill said. “The events may not all relate to heart health like the blood pressure checks (today and Wednesday at Jekyll Square), but they are a way to raise awareness of AEDs and the importance of CPR.” Blood pressure screenings will be performed by the Brunswick Fire Department. “Most people know someone or have a family member who has suffered sudden cardiac arrest,” Hill said. “Having access to an AED can mean the difference between life and death for a victim of SCA.” Last year, the event raised $4,000 and it was used to purchase six wall-mounted, encased AEDs at Old City Hall, the Brunswick Police Station, the Ritz Theatre, Customs House (City Hall) on Gloucester Street, the Brunswick-Glynn Public Library, and Tipsy McSway’s. Glaeser and Hill are looking to

surpass that total this year. “Our goal for fundraising is to meet or exceed last year’s $4,000. With that amount, we can purchase six portable AEDs to be used in Brunswick Police patrol cars and they would be available to have on-hand at events at Mary Ross Park or the recreation fields off Lanier (Boulevard) or for instance, during the Christmas parade when hundreds of folks are downtown,” Glaeser said. I HEART Brunswick has been a very personal journey for Glaeser, but she hopes the event reinforces the importance of the life-saving abilities of AEDs. “If we pull together and everyone contributes in some way, we can make Brunswick a better, safer place. It doesn’t require a lot of effort or money from any one individual and all who contribute can be proud,” Glaeser said. • Reporter Brittany Tate writes about lifestyle topics.

DNA blood tests show prenatal screening promise By MARILYNN MARCHIONE Associated Press

A DNA test of a pregnant woman’s blood is more accurate than current methods of screening for Down syndrome and other common disorders, new research finds. If other studies bear this out, it could transform prenatal care by giving a more reliable, non-invasive way to detect these problems very early in pregnancy. That would let couples decide sooner whether to have an abortion or to prepare for a major medical problem. It also might cut down on the 200,000 more invasive tests like amniocentesis done each year in the United States to diagnose or rule out problems with a fetus. “It offers women a safe and accurate alternative” for screening, said the study leader, Dr. Diana Bianchi, of Tufts Medical Center in Boston. Several companies already sell these DNA blood tests, which can be done when the fetus is only 9 to 10 weeks old, a couple weeks sooner than current methods. They screen for disorders caused by extra or missing chromosomes, such as Down syndrome, which occurs in about one of every 700 pregnancies. Current screening methods are

Jennifer Fontaine kisses her baby daughter, Morgan, at her parents’ home in Methuen, Mass., on Feb. 25. After Fontaine’s standard prenatal screening suggested her fetus might have Edwards syndrome, a doctor suggested a fetal DNA test, which suggested her fetus was fine.

imprecise. Ultrasounds and various blood tests can hint at a problem but don’t directly test for one. The next step is diagnostic testing — amniocentesis, like a needle biopsy to collect fetal cells, or chorionic villus sampling, which takes a snip of the placenta. Both bring a small risk of miscarriage. The DNA tests aim to improve screening and lower the number of women referred for these more invasive tests. Using a sample of the mom’s blood, they sequence

the alphabet of bits of DNA shed from the placenta and map them to various chromosomes. The numbers are compared to what’s normal at that stage of pregnancy. Groups like the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists say these DNA tests can be an option for higher risk pregnancies — moms 35 and older, those with an abnormal ultrasound or blood test, or with a prior pregnancy involving abnormal chromosomes — but their ac-

curacy in the general population isn’t known. The new study, published Wednesday by the New England Journal of Medicine, is the first to look at their use in a general U.S. population. Nearly 2,000 women had standard prenatal screening plus a fetal DNA test from Illumina Inc., a California company that sponsored the study. Both methods detected eight chromosome abnormalities, including five of Down syndrome. But the false alarm rate for Down syndrome with DNA testing was just a fraction of that for standard screening — 0.3 percent versus 3.6 percent. DNA tests gave fewer false alarms for Edwards and Patau syndromes, less common chromosome abnormalities. That means far fewer women would be advised to get diagnostic tests to rule out a problem. Women like Jennifer Fontaine, whose standard prenatal screening suggested her fetus might have Edwards syndrome, which causes massive abnormalities that can lead to stillbirth or death at a very early age. “It was devastating, absolutely heartbreaking to think this is what I might be going through,” said Fontaine, who lives in Groveland, Mass., north of Boston. A doctor proposed a DNA test, which sug-

gested her fetus was fine, and she now has a healthy 2-month-old daughter, Morgan. “I wanted to exhaust my options” before risking an amniocentesis, Fontaine said. “If something had happened during the procedure it would have just killed me.” Several independent experts called the new research a good first step, but not enough to warrant using the DNA tests now in the general population. “It’s encouraging,” but doctors will want to wait for other and larger studies underway now of various fetal DNA tests, said Dr. Nancy Rose, a University of Utah professor who heads the genetics committee of the College of Obstetricians. Dr. Susan Klugman, director of reproductive genetics at New York’s Montefiore Medical Center, noted that nearly one-third of the women in this study had the DNA testing in their third trimester of pregnancy, and said doctors will want to see more evidence of how well DNA testing does in the earliest months. Four companies sell the tests for $1,200 to $2,700, said Bianchi, the study leader, who has consulted for Illumina. Blood tests used for screening now cost $300 to $400, and ultrasound costs $200 to $300.

Study links dads’ age with kids’ illnesses CHICAGO — Older fathers may face higher risks than previously thought for having children with psychiatric problems, including bipolar disorder, autism and attention deficits, according to the largest study to examine the potential links. American and Swedish researchers examined data on more than 2.6 million Swedes born from 1973-2001. Men who

fathered kids after age 24 faced increasing odds for having children with psychiatric problems or academic difficulties, with the greatest risks seen at age 45 and older. The results add to evidence challenging the notion that men’s sperm are timeless, but this kind of research isn’t proof. And by no means are children of older dads certain to have problems. Absolute risks were small — less than 1 percent of kids of older dads had autism, attention deficit-

hyperactivity disorder or bipolar disorder; and less than 4 percent had schizophrenia or fell victim to substance abuse or attempted suicide. Academic difficulties were more common but still didn’t affect most kids of older dads. Even so, the magnitude of increased risks faced by kids born to dads aged 45 and older versus dads aged 20 to 24 was surprising, said lead author Brian D’Onofrio, an associate professor in the psychological and brain

sciences department at Indiana University. Compared with kids of the youngest dads, those fathered by men at age 45 and older faced risks almost 25 times greater for bipolar disorder; 13 times greater for ADHD; more than three times greater for autism; almost three times greater for suicide attempts; and about two times greater for schizophrenia and substance abuse. The study was published online Wednesday in JAMA Psychiatry.

Treating snoring can lower blood pressure Dear Doctor K: I’m a snorer. I read recently that treating snoring can affect blood pressure. Can you explain the connection? Dear Reader: Severe snoring can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea. If you have OSA, then your breathing is blocked temporarily several (sometimes hundreds) of times per night. What happens is that muscles in your upper airway (the back of the throat) relax too much. Normally, these muscles hold your airway open, so that air moves in and out of your lungs without obstruction. When your breathing is blocked, oxygen levels in your lungs and blood start falling. Your brain sees this happening and causes adrenaline to surge into your bloodstream. This stimulates the breathing center in your brain: It’s a “breathe now!” signal. You awaken briefly and gasp for air before falling back

to sleep. That’s bad enough. But surges of adrenaline also make your heart beat faster and raise your blood pressure. As a result, your blood pressure swings up and down. Some people have what’s called treatment-resistant hypertension. This is blood pressure that remains high despite taking several blood pressure medications. It turns out that many people with treatment-resistant hypertension also have OSA. A recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that treating OSA can help people with high

blood pressure that’s difficult to control. In the study, researchers provided 12 weeks of the standard treatment for OSA to nearly 200 men and women with OSA and treatment-resistant hypertension. The standard treatment was continuous positive airway pressure. With CPAP, you wear a mask that covers your nose. A small machine delivers continuous air pressure that prevents the collapse of your airway during sleep. After 12 weeks of CPAP, average blood pressures were a few ticks lower. Study participants also had healthier nighttime blood pressure patterns. The improvements, though modest, are still important. Many people find CPAP uncomfortable. As a result, they use CPAP inconsistently, or not at all. The key is to find a mask you like. These days, you can choose

Mom does not want unborn son

Dear Abby: I’m a single mother of a beautiful 2-year-old daughter. I have always pictured myself as a mom of four little princesses. When I fantasized about having children, I imagined fairy tales, ballet, cheerleading, dress-up, tea parties – all girl things. Now I’m expecting a little boy, and I feel heartbroken. When I learned my first was a girl, I couldn’t wait to meet her. I bought her everything pink and frilly. Here I am eight weeks from my due date, and I have yet to buy this baby a single thing. When I look at baby boy items, I become severely depressed. I’m no longer with the baby’s father. He and his family are very excited about the baby, as he will be the only male grandchild for this generation. The truth is, the more I think about it, the more I am pulled in the direction of

signing over my parental rights to my ex. At least he really wants him, whereas I don’t. I know this sounds terrible and selfish. I feel like a monster, but I can’t help it. My family is totally against it. My dad says I shouldn’t even allow my ex to visit our son in the hospital after he’s born. No one will listen to how I feel. They keep saying my feelings will change after the baby is born, but I doubt it. I just need some guidance. – Undeserving Title of Mommy Dear Mommy: I don’t think you are a monster. I do think you are not thinking objectively right

now. Let me point out that life doesn’t always go the way we fantasize. Because you imagined that you’d be the mother of four little princesses doesn’t guarantee that you will be. I see no need to rush into signing any papers right now, regardless of how eager your boyfriend and his parents are about the baby. There will be time for that later, if you still want to. For now, ask your parents to help you select some baby boy outfits, and tell your doctor about all of your feelings because they may be hormonal. You might benefit from some professional counseling right now – more than I can offer you – and I urge you to get it before doing anything you might later regret.

Teen wants quick remedy for acne

Dr. Wallace: I’m 16 and have a bad case of acne. I read your column regularly, and when teens complain about complexion problems you always tell them to go to a dermatologist, so don’t lecture me about going to a dermatologist. Just answer my questions, please. Why do guys have more acne problems than girls? What percent of teens get acne? I notice that very, very few adults have acne, so when I’m an adult, my acne will be history. When does acne start to go away without any dermatologist visits? – Nameless, Lake Charles, La. Nameless: Almost all teens have some complexion problems, with about 5 percent developing severe acne. In general, girls get acne earlier than boys – at about ages 14 and 16, respectively. The most severe forms of acne generally peak three to five years after the first attack. We don’t know why, but boys generally have more severe and longer lasting cases of acne. One of the reasons girls appear to suffer less from this skin condition is that they seek medical treatment sooner and more often than guys. Acne problems could not come at a worse time than the formidable teen years, but for most acne sufferers, it subsides by age 20. Dr. Wallace: My boyfriend and I broke up about a month ago because I wanted to date another guy. I liked my ex, but I didn’t love him, even though

Diversity the big winner at 86th annual Academy Awards By JESSICA HERNDON and JAKE COYLE Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Diversity was perhaps the biggest winner at the 86th annual Academy Awards. For the first time, a film directed by a black filmmaker — Steve McQueen of “12 Years a Slave” — won best picture and a Latino — Alfonso Cuaron of “Gravity” — took home best director in a ceremony presided over by a lesbian host and overseen by the academy’s first black president. And only two of the top six awards went to Americans. McQueen’s grimly historical drama “12 Years a Slave” took best picture, leading the usually sedate filmmaker to jump up and down in celebration after his acceptance speech. The British director dedicated his award to “all of the people who endured slavery and the 21 million people who still suffer slavery today.” Cuaron’s lost-inspace thriller “Gravity” led the Oscars with seven awards, including cinematography, editing,

score, visual effects, sound mixing and sound editing. Some in his native Mexico have been critical that since the attention came for a Hollywood release and not a Mexican-themed film, his win didn’t have the same kind of importance. “I’m Mexican so I hope some Mexicans were rooting for me,” he told reporters backstage. The entire Oscar ceremony had the feel of a make-over for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences — an institution that has sometimes seemed stuck in the past. After a Los Angeles Times report revealed the academy was overwhelming older white men, new president Cheryl Boone Isaacs has pushed for a more varied membership. The movie industry that the Oscars reflect has also been reluctant to tell a wider range of stories. “Dallas Buyers Club,” the best picture-nominated drama about AIDS in 1980s Texas, took two decades to get made after countless executives balked at financing such a tale. Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto, the two Americans in the top six awards,

took best actor and best supporting actor titles for their roles in the film as a heterosexual rodeo rat (McConaughey) and a transgender drug addict (Leto) united by HIV. “Thirty-six million people have lost the battle to AIDS and to those of you out there who have ever felt injustice because of who you are or who you love, tonight I stand here in front of the world

with you and for you,” said Leto in his acceptance speech. Cate Blanchett, the Australian best-actress winner for her bitter, ruined socialite in Woody Allen’s “Blue Jasmine,” used her acceptance speech to trumpet the need to make films with female leads — films like her own and like “Gravity,” starring Sandra Bullock. A study by analyst Kevin B. Lee found that last year’s lead

actors averaged 100 minutes on screen, but lead actresses averaged only 49 minutes. “To the audiences who went to see the film and perhaps those of us in the industry who are still foolishly clinging to the idea that female films, with women at the center, are niche experiences, they are not,” said Blanchett. “Audiences want to see them and, in fact, they earn money.” “12 Years a Slave” also won awards in the writing and acting categories. John Ridley picked up the trophy for best adapted screenplay, which was based on the 1853 memoir by Solomon Northup. The screenwriter is only the second black writer (Geoffrey Fletcher won for “Precious” in 2009) to win in the category. Backstage, the “12 Years” team mentioned their efforts to include Solomon Northup’s memoir as part of high school study. The National School Boards Association announced in February that the book is now mandatory reading. “It’s important that we understand our history so we can understand who we were and who

we are now and most importantly who we’re going to be,” said Brad Pitt, who produced “12 Years.” “We hope that this film remains a gentle reminder that we’re all equal. We all want the same: Dignity and opportunity.” Lupita Nyong’o was a first-time Oscar winner for her supporting role as field slave Patsey in “12 Years.” “I’m a little dazed,” said Nyong’o backstage. “I can’t believe this is real life.” Nyong’o is the sixth black actress to win in the supporting actress category — and the first major Oscar win for Kenya (the president of Kenya congratulated her in a tweet) — following Hattie McDaniel (“Gone with the Wind”), Whoopi Goldberg (“Ghost”), Jennifer Hudson (“Dreamgirls”), Mo’Nique (“Precious”) and Octavia Spencer (“The Help”). Foreign language film nominees included “The Missing Picture,” the first-ever Oscar-nominated film from Cambodia. “The Act of Killing,” a dark look into the mass killings of communists and ethnic Chinese in Indonesia in the 1960s, was nominated for best documentary feature.

HOROSCOPE By FRANCIS DRAKE For Tuesday, March 4, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a wonderful day for introspection and a little scrutiny so that you can better understand yourself. It’s also a great day for research of any kind. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Expect to encounter someone powerful today. In fact, this person might even cause you to modify your future goals -- for the better. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Relations with authority figures can improve today. Although people come on strong, so will you! CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might come up with better travel plans or a new approach to your education or a training program. You also might meet a powerful teacher or guru-like figure today. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is an excellent day to take a hard look at your debt situation or anything to do with shared property. Think about how you can improve your money scene or turn things to your advantage. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Discussions with partners and close friends will be powerful but mutually beneficial. You can give advice, but you also must listen to advice that others give to you. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Introduce reforms and better ways of doing things at work today, because you can do this. Or you might decide to privately change the way you do things. You also can think of ways to improve your

health. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Parents and educators might come up with a better approach to dealing with children today. This is a good day to put a new creative spin on something. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Look around where you live, and figure out how to sell, recycle or get rid of what you no longer need. Streamline your possessions. Just do it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You’re highly convincing today! This is a strong day for those of you who sell, market, teach, act or write. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You might come up with a good idea for a better job. Or conversely, you might see how to improve your existing job or even use something that you own in a better way. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your appearance. This could relate to your dress, your hair -- anything. Appearances are a lot. YOU BORN TODAY You are personally happy when working on your own, without distractions. Even if you don’t choose to do this, it often turns out to be the case. It’s important for you to feel that you are being productive. You also like a comfortable, elegant workspace. This year, a major change will take place, perhaps as significant as something that occurred around 2005.

Yesterday’s Answer

Consider the North-South diamond holding in today’s deal where, as declarer, your aim is to avoid losing more than one trick in the suit. One method of play is to lead low to the ace and return the ten. If East follows low, you can let the ten ride or go up with the queen. If East has the jack, playing low on the ten wins, but if he has the king, the queen is the winning play. Whether you are successful depends on how good a guesser you are. Another approach is to lead a low diamond from the closed hand and finesse dummy’s eight. If the eight loses to the jack, you later try another finesse against West, hoping your right-hand opponent wasn’t dealt the king and jack. The second method of play is better than the first because there is about a 75 percent chance that East does not hold both honors, while if you play the ace followed by the ten, your chances are not nearly as good as that. However, you shouldn’t blindly choose the second line of play, for there might be yet another approach that is even better. In the present case, for instance, you can improve your prospects further by adopting a third line of play. Accordingly, you win the spade lead with the ace, draw trumps, cash the king of spades and ruff a spade. Next you cash the A-K-Q of clubs and lead a low diamond to the eight. East takes the jack, but even if he has the king, the slam is home. Because you have taken the precaution of eliminating the side suits before tackling diamonds, there is nothing he can do to stop you from scoring the rest of the tricks. Tomorrow: Diabolical defense. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Paula Prentiss is 76. Movie director Adrian Lyne is 73. Singer Bobby Womack is 70. Rock musician Chris Squire (Yes) is 66. Singer Shakin’ Stevens is 66.

THIS DATE IN HISTORY Today is Tuesday, March 4, the 63rd day of 2014. There are 302 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On March 4, 1789, the Constitution of the United States went into effect as the first Federal Congress met in New York. (The lawmakers then adjourned for lack of a quorum.) On this date: In 1974, the first issue of People magazine, then called People Weekly, was published by Time-Life Inc.; on the cover was actress Mia Farrow, then co-starring in “The Great Gatsby.” In 1994, in New York, four extremists were convicted of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing that killed six people and injured more than a thousand. Actor-comedian John Candy died in Durango, Mexico, at age 43. Thought for Today: “I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.” — Edna St. Vincent Millay, American author and poet (18921950).
