Another tragedy, anotherbatch of scams.

The Boston Marathonbombings have inspired conartists to pose as charities,ripping off people trying tohelp with the recovery.

Oregon Attorney GeneralEllen Rosenblum is warningOregonians about thesescams, especially in socialm e d i a . A fa ke Tw i t te raccount sprang up directlyfollowing the attacks inBos to n . T h e a cco u n t ,“@_BostonMarathon,” hasbeen suspended, but there’sno saying who else may

spring up.“Scammers came out in

force after the 9/11 terroristattacks, after HurricaneKatrina, and afterSuperstorm Sandy,”said Ellen Klem, thestate’s director ofconsumer outreacha n d e d u ca t i o n .“They’ll try onceagain after Mon-d ay ’s se n se l e ssbombing. Don’t letthem prosper offthe tragedy. Be gen-erous, but skepti-cal.”

The Oregon Jus-t i ce De pa r t m e n toffers these tips if you planto donate:

n Don’t share importantpersonal information like

credit card or bank accountnumbers over the phone.

n If you write a check, besure to make it out to the

charity itself, notthe person han-dling the check.(This isn’t fool-p ro o f, b e ca u sepeople can set upfa ke b u s i n e sse s.But it will weed outt h e e n t ry- l eve lcriminals.)

n Be wa ry o fp h o n e so l i c i to rswh o wa n t t h emoney quickly. Askfor written materi-als. A legitimate

organization won’t pressureyou to donate immediately.

n Don’t donate cash. Youalso shouldn’t donate via a

“runner,” by wire or byovernight parcel pickupservice. If the organizationis legitimate, it will take acheck.

n To be positive a relieff u n d i s l e g i t i m a te , se ewhether it’s registered onthe Oregon Department ofJustice database: www.ore-gonconsumer.gov.

My personal advice: Gowith a name brand. When Ibuy something online, I’llgive Amazon my credit cardnumber without concern,because it’s a huge and rep-utable business. Same withcharitable donations. Thereare plenty of relief organi-zations with good reputa-tions and established trackrecords.

PORTLAND (AP) — A fed-eral judge in Portland says aman accused of burying hiselderly father’s remains in acoastal Oregon trailer parkand continuing to receiveabout $50,000 from hisfather's Social Security ben-efits must stay in jail.

Corey Starks has beencharged in Curry Countywith abuse of a corpse. TheOregonian reports that a fed-eral indictment accuses himof stealing government prop-erty.

U.S. District JudgeM ichael Mosman saidWednesday that Starks mustremain in a MultnomahCounty jail as a potentialflight risk.

Port Orford police say the38-year-old man was arrest-ed last week in Cass County,Minn., on a warrant forfelony abuse of a corpse.

According to court papers,Starks told police his 71-year-old father, CharlesStarks, died after a seizure onMarch 1, 2010. The son saidhe buried the body in a shal-low grave near their trailer.Medical examiners arestudying the remains foundlast month.

Oregon should makeshort-term driver licensesavailable for the state’sundocumented residents.

This is not about bestow-ing rights on people whocame into this country ille-gally, but about protectinganyone who is on Oregonroads.

It’s estimated that thou-sands of people are drivingillegally in Oregon becausethey don’t qualify for theregular, eight-year driverlicense with its requiredproof of citizenship. And ifthey don’t have vehicleinsurance, or if they don’tunderstand U.S. rules of theroad, they increase the risksfor the rest of us.

Senate Bill 833 wouldallow residents to obtain ashort-term (four-year)license if they can prove theiridentity and have lived inOregon for at least a year.The license could not beused for driving commercial

vehicles, obtaining a con-cealed handgun license pur-chasing firearms or goingthrough airport security. Theshort-term driver licensewould require the DMV’susual driving tests.

Critics see this as floutingU.S. immigration law. Notso. It’s true that many Ore-gon residents who wouldseek the short-term licensesare in the U.S. illegally. Butguess what, folks? They’rehere, and it’s smarter to havethem driving properly thanto ignore reality.

SB 833 is good for Oregon.It doesn’t affect immigrationstatus. It addresses saferdriving.

Don’t fault Portlandfor trying to woo Nike

It doesn’t make much dif-ference to the Oregon econ-omy whether Nike expandsin Washington County or in

Portland. But it could make abig difference to Portland,boosting the city’s tatteredreputation as a place to dobusiness and generating taxrevenues.

So if you are dismayedthat a progressive city wouldbow before a powerful cor-poration, take a deep breath.And remember that theincentives reportedly beingdangled in front of Nikecome from already existingeconomic development pro-grams that many cities use.

The city has consideredoffering financial incentivesof about $80 million forparking garages, parks and

new streets. MultnomahCounty could further sweet-en the pot by creating a pro-gram that would offer 15-year tax abatements to Nike.

In the current budget cli-mate, the possibility ofoffering $80 million or morein incentives to the state’slargest company instantlyproduces cries of “corporatewelfare.” That knee-jerkresponse misses the point.City and county leaders areconsidering these incentivesnot because they benefitNike (though they do), butbecause they believe theinvestment also would payoff for the city. City officials

wouldn’t be doing their jobsif they didn’t assemble anoffer that makes sense forboth Portland and Nike.

Move cautiously onintroducing canola

Oregon is a world leader inseed production, a high-value agricultural specialtythat generates $50 million to$60 million a year. The statewould be foolish to jeopard-ize this industry for the ben-efit of a single new low-valuecrop. At a minimum, a fullscientific review is needed.

The new crop is canola,whose seed contains an oilused to make biofuel. Theemerging market for biofuelsmakes canola potentiallyattractive to Willamette Val-ley farmers.

One problem with canolais that it’s a prolific pollina-tor. In the seed business,purity is everything — and aseed crop contaminated by

canola pollen would bedegraded in value.

A second problem is thatmost canola is geneticallymodified. Seed crops con-taminated by pollen fromgenetically modified canolacould not be sold as organic,and many export marketswould be closed altogether.

A third problem is thatcanola seed can be trans-ported by birds or farmequipment, resulting in theplant’s spread.

If canola’s critics areright, allowing the crop inOregon would be a costly andirreversible mistake. If thecrop can be grown in Oregonsafely, a thorough assess-ment of the risks andrewards would create confi-dence that does not existtoday.

I’m from Boston. Over the years, I livedin two apartments within a stone’s throwof Monday’s bombings. Over the years, Istood and cheered marathon runnerscountless times. I know every square inchof the area in all the pictures, which ishardly unusual. It’s the center of Boston.

My nephew was aroundthe corner when theexplosions went off.

This week’s terror hithome for me.

And what to do? Thatis always the question.

Do you stop going tosporting events? Cultur-al events? Outdoor ral-lies?

I was raped around thecorner from where thebombs hit. I did not stop

going out, didn’t quit my job workingnights as a bartender. (I was raped duringthe day, anyway.) I was determined not tolet the crazies run my life. I was youngerthen.

An even harder question: What do wewant the government to do?

How much of our liberty and privacy arewe willing to give up in the hopes that itmight stop terror?

My answer to that now is also differentfrom what it would have been in the dayswhen I lived around the corner from thebombings. Maybe it’s because I’m older.Maybe it’s because I’m a mother. Ormaybe, probably mostly, it’s because of thehorrors we have seen.

So this is my answer: I’d give up a lot.You want to put cameras on every corner?Fine with me. I don’t care who pats medown at the airport. Pat away. Mine mydata; listen to my conversations. If it willkeep my children safe, I don’t care.

But of course, that’s not the question,either. I’m a middle-aged, well-dressed(mostly), respectable-looking whitewoman. No one is really interested in me,terrorism-wise.

So when I ask myself or my studentshow much liberty we’re willing to give up,I’m not really asking about us. I’m askingabout “others” — and we all know whichothers I mean.

I would not like to be a Muslim goingthrough security at Logan Airport thisweek. Just for instance. And I don’t blamethe TSA if they pay more careful attention.I just want the planes to take off and land.

I ask my students: If there are two secu-rity lines at the airport, and one has threewhite businessmen about to whisk offtheir jackets, and the other has three Mus-lim men, which line do you join? I knowwhat I would do. Is that racist?

How do you avoid being a racist whenyou’re afraid?

How do you avoid offering up your pri-vacy and liberty — or, more likely, someoneelse’s — when you are terrified of terror?

How do you maintain a free societywhen you see limbs flying?

It’s true these events are rare. It’s truethat, compared to other countries, we areindeed remarkably free and safe. And per-haps we also are spoiled to believe that inthis day and age we can have it all: freedomand safety, privacy and security, not tomention equality.

When I was a kid, we worried about theRussians. We practiced going to the base-ment of the school in case of a nuclearattack. How odd to see those as less terri-fying days — and to long for them.

I hope the culprits, when they arefound, will not add to our collective terrorof “others.” I hope this will not be a casethat makes us even more afraid of thosewho are different from us, even though99.9 percent of them mean us no harm. Ihope.

Wolves work uphealthy appetites

Oregon’s wolf program is upfor debate. Nancy Shinn is veryright that wolves prey on the“weak, the lame, the infirm.”They also feed on the dead.

This is not the problem weface with wolves. They areopportunistic predators and areextremely capable of killing allage-classes of healthy animals.The young are always an easyprey during that brief period inthe spring. In the winter, whensnows are deep, any big gameanimal can easily be exhaustedand taken.

I was involved in a predator-prey study on antelope wheremostly coyotes, and to somedegree bobcats, killed every sin-gle antelope kid after birth.Wolves are at the very top of thistype of predation.

I am most familiar with theelk population east of IdahoFalls, Idaho. The wolves therehave all but destroyed the high-er-elevation elk herds.

There may well be areas whereelk populations are flourishingwith wolves, as Ms. Shinn sug-gests. I personally do not knowof any area where this is the case.They need to eat!

I have been a wildlife biologistsince 1960. I have observed con-siderable predation by all preda-tors, including wolves.

Yes, Oregon’s wolf program isworking (45 wolves). How willwildlife and domestic animalshandle a population of perhaps1,000? The answer to that iswhat is happening in Montana,Wyoming, Idaho and elsewhere.

Case law is clearon Mingus cross

Not all opponents of the Min-gus Park Cross are atheists. TheRev. Barry Lind of AmericansUnited for Separation of Churchand State advocates a strong wallbetween the two. Contrary tosome letter writers on this sub-ject, the point is not merely“freedom from religion” but alsoto assure that government doesnot support one particular reli-gion over another. This protectsfreedom of religion for membersof minority sects.

Others have pointed out thereshould be an exception formemorials that have been incommunities for decades, with-out protest. Constitutionally,the majority of a communitycannot decide for everyone toendorse a particular religion.The question is whether a publicdisplay “promotes an establish-ment of religion.”

In 2005, the question wasanswered by the Supreme Courtin two related decisions. In one,

the court decided that adecades-old cross in a publicpark did not represent “promo-tion of religion” to the commu-nity, since in all that time no onecomplained. In the other case,the court said a Ten Command-ments display that had beenplaced in a Texas courthouse,with a pastor leading the dedica-tion, was a clear violation of theseparation clause, since it wasclearly placed with religiousintent.

Contrary to popular belief,the founders did not agree on theinterpretation of the Establish-ment Clause. Jefferson was oneof the strongest proponents ofseparation. The claim that hewas in favor of allowing publicsupport of Christianity reflectspoor scholarship or deliberatedeception. Many actions of thegovernment, such as prayers atthe opening of Congress, wereobjected to by many.

One of the important func-tions of the Supreme Court is tointerpret the Constitutionaccording to societal changeover time. Americans haveincreasingly recognized thatgovernment promotion of onereligion is discriminatory, sub-jects the children of parents ofminority faiths to state-spon-sored religious doctrine, andimplies that they are not “realAmericans.” Public support ofone religion is contrary to the

constitutional doctrine of thefundamental equality of all citi-zens.

In this case, the law is clear. Ifthe court that hears the case fol-lows Supreme Court precedent,the cross will stay. If not, the citywill have to pay an exorbitantamount to see that the law isupheld in the end. If we are topay the cost, let’s do the rightthing for the right reasons.

Take pride inchamber’s video

I am writing to say that I couldnot disagree more with FredKirby’s April 16 letter assessingthe merits of the Bay AreaChamber of Commerce’s pro-motional video, “On the RightTrack — Shore of Coos Bay.”

Come on Fred, lighten up!What is there not to like? Snappymusic, city and county high-lights displayed at their best.Attractive young professionalsand business owners smiling,looking happy, promoting livingand doing business in the BayArea. I could not be more proudof their efforts.

The term to describe yourattitude, Fred, is “Founders Syn-drome” — unwilling to makechanges, “ because we havealways done it that way.” Well,move over Fred, the millennialsare coming, and you need to getout of the way.

upside inwoman’s fear of

parenthoodDDEEAARR AABBBBYY:: My husband

and I are contemplatingstarting a family. When I wasyounger I wanted children,but over the years my per-sonal experiences havecaused trepidation. Becauseof divorce and the custodybattles of my older siblings, Iknow the amount of blood,

sweat andtears that gointo chil-dren.

I work inthe field ofsocial serv-ices. Everyday I amconfrontedwith fami-lies whos t r u g g l ewith morec h i l d r e nthan they

can care for and with behav-ioral and emotional prob-lems. Frankly, it has turnedme off. I am terrified of all the“what ifs.”

I can’t talk to my familybecause I don’t want to tellthem they have created partof my problem. My in-lawscan’t understand why wedon’t have children yet.

My husband keeps insist-ing “everything will be fine.” Ilove him deeply and he wouldmake an amazing father. Myheart wants this, but my headisn’t sure. I can’t picture ourfuture without children, butthe fear of actually havingthem brings me to tears. Canyou help me? — SCARED TOTAKE THE NEXT STEP

DDEEAARR SSCCAARREEDD:: Childrendon’t come with 100 percent,money-back guarantees.What they need in order tothrive is parents who loveeach other and them, andwho are willing to put forththe time and energy to raisethem. I don’t know whatwent wrong in your siblings’marriages, but it appearstheir kids have been used aspawns rather than havingtheir own interests put first.If both parents cooperated inthe interests of the childrenthere would be no battles.

Please do not allow thedysfunction you have seen inyour work to influence yourdecision.

DDEEAARR AABBBBYY:: I’m at acrossroads. I have been mar-ried for 15 years and have twochildren. I love my wife andhave been content with thislife for a long time. However,for years I have felt likesomething was missing.

I recently become closefriends with a man who is inthe same situation. One dayhe confided that he is gay andhas known it for more than 10years. He told me he, too, hadbeen content with his life buthad grown increasinglydepressed before we met.

As our friendship hasdeveloped I have come torealize that I’m gay as well. Itwas a struggle to finallyadmit this to myself, but Iaccept that it’s the truth. Myfriend and I have beenexploring our sexualitytogether, and he says he ishappier than he has been inyears.

Both of us love our wivesand children; however, wedesperately need to fulfill ourown needs as well.

Do you have any advice onthe best way to move forwardthat will have minimalimpact on everyoneinvolved? — IN A DIFFI-CULT SITUATION

DDEEAARR IINN: You say youhave known for years thatsomething was missing.Well, it is possible that yourwives have felt the same way,and may have blamed them-selves for it. That’s why it isimportant for you and yourfriend to explain everythingto them honestly.

It would be helpful foreveryone who will be affectedto seek counseling andreceive the emotional sup-port they will need throughthis life-changing transition.You and your lover should goonline and find the nearestgay and lesbian communitycenter.

SALEM — Sheriffs fromOregon timber countieswarned state lawmakers onWednesday that their abilityto protect their communi-ties is continuing to declineas costs rise and fundingplummets.

S h e r i f fs f ro m C u r ry,Douglas, Josephine and Polkcounties, along with thedistrict attorney from LaneCounty, spoke to a legisla-tive task force studyingways to help distressedcounties reeling from thedecline of federal timberrevenue.

The speakers said theirpatrol forces are bare bones;jail inmates are routinelyfreed because there’s notenough staff; prosecutorsd o n ’t h ave e n o u g hresources to charge misde-meanor cases, and officersare in danger because theycan’t count on backup.

“The criminals are soemboldened,” JosephineCo u n ty S h e r i f f G i l

Gilbertson told lawmakers.“I wish you could’ve beenthere the day we had to letthem out of jail. That wasquite the scene.”

S ta te l aw m a ke rs a relooking for ways to help thestruggling counties nowthat a federal subsidy fortimber counties has expiredand local taxpayers haverefused to make up the gap.

Law enforcement offi-cials said they no-longerh ave ro u n d - t h e - c l o c kpatrols in rural areas andsmall towns.

Even in towns with apolice force, the lack ofcounty jail capacity meansofficers can’t book suspect-ed burglars and vandals intojail.

“Our property crime hasskyrocketed. We just don’thave the ability to investi-gate those crimes ... as weonce did,” said DouglasCounty Sheriff John Hanlin.

T h e t i m b e r co u n t i e shave some of the state’slowest tax rates — a remnantof the days when they wereflu sh w i t h cash f rom a

thriving timber industry.Vo te rs i n Jose p h i n e

County last year rejected alevy to help pay for lawenforcement services.

Voters in three othercounties — Curry, Josephineand Lane — will vote nextmonth on levies that wouldhelp avoid future cuts.

Still, the counties can’ttax their way out of thep ro b l e m s b e ca u se va s tswaths of their land arepublicly owned and not ontax rolls, said Rep. BruceHanna, co-chair of the leg-islative task force,

T h e o n ly l o n g - te r msolution is a change in fed-eral policy that would allowmore timber harvests, saidHanna, a Republican whorepresents Roseburg.

Re p. Va l Hoyl e o fEugene, the No. 2 Democratin the House and co-chair ofthe Legislature’s timber-county task force, agreed.

“We want somethingthat can pass through the( U. S. ) Se n a te a n d t h eHouse, and we need it now,”Hoyle said.

SALEM (AP) —Employees have beenallowed back into the OregonDepartment of Revenuebuilding after authoritiesdetermined a suspiciouspowdery substance was notharmful.

Oregon State Police Lt.Mike Peterson says investi-gators aren’t sure yet whatthe substance was butthey’ve confirmed it wasn’thazardous or toxic. The sub-stance was found Wednesdaymorning in an envelope in theagency’s mail room.

Authorities said the sub-stance had a consistencysimilar to a “protein powdershake.”

The first floor of theagency’s Salem office wasevacuated, but employees onother floors were allowedinto their workspaces.

Democratic tax planheads to House

SALEM (AP) — AnOregon legislative commit-tee advanced a Democraticplan to raise more tax rev-enue from corporations andwealthy individuals.

The House Revenue com-mittee passed the plan onWednesday, sending it to theHouse floor.

The plan proposes raising$275 million in additionalrevenue to balance the statebudget.

Democrats say the taxincreases are necessary toboost funding for schools.Republicans say theLegislature wouldn’t have toraise taxes if it would cutdeeper into public-employeepensions.

The plan would eliminatethe personal exemption taxcredit and phase out incometax deductions for Oregon’shighest-earning taxpayers.Responding to concernsfrom Republicans and chari-table organizations,

Democrats agreed to contin-ue allowing tax exemptionsfor charitable contributionswithout limits.

It would also raise taxeson some corporations.

Lake Oswego joinsterrorism task force

PORTLAND. (AP) — ThePortland suburb of LakeOswego has chosen to join afederal terrorism task force.

The council approved theaction without debate, a farless contentious outcomethan the prolonged back-and-forth between the cityof Portland and the JointTerrorism Task Force.Portland left the task force in2005 and rejoined on a case-by-case basis in 2011.

The Oregonian reportsthat Lake Oswego intends toassign one detective on a part-time basis to the task force,which pairs local police withfederal agents in an effort tokeep each side informed onpotential terror threats.

The move by LakeOswego was opposed by theAmerican Civil LibertiesUnion, which says the taskforce carries no accountabil-ity to local police.

5 arrests in Salem,postal closure protest

SALEM (AP) — Police inSalem, have arrested fivepeople protesting the slatedclosure of Salem’s mail-sorting facility after theyrefused to leave its workroom.

The Statesman Journalreports that Salem is one ofseveral Oregon processingand distribution facilitiesexpected to close in 2013 aspart of the Postal Service’splan to cut costs.

CORINTH, Miss. (AP) — AMississippi man accused ofmailing letters with suspectedricin to national leadersbelieved he had uncovered aconspiracy to sell human bodyparts on the black market andclaimed “various partieswithin the government” weretrying to ruin his reputation.

Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, wasarrested Wednesday at hishome in Corinth, near theTennessee state line. He wasbeing held in the LafayetteCounty jail in Oxford, Miss., abooking officer, who declinedto give his name, said today. Itwas not immediately knownwhat charges Curtis faced.

Curtis had been living inCorinth since December, butlocal police had not had any

contact with him prior to hisarrest, Corinth Police Dept.Captain Ralph Dance told TheAssociated Press today. Dancesaid the department aided theFBI during the arrest and thatCurtis did not resist beingtaken into custody. SinceCorinth arrived in the town,he had been living in “govern-ment housing,” Dance said.He did not elaborate.

Authorities were waitingfor definitive tests on inter-cepted letters that wereaddressed to PresidentBarack Obama and Sen.Roger Wicker, R-Miss. Pre-liminary field tests can oftenshow false positives for ricin.Ricin is derived from the cas-tor plant that makes castoroil. There is no antidote and

it’s deadliest when inhaled.An FBI intelligence bulletin

obtained by The AssociatedPress said the two letters werepostmarked Memphis, Tenn.

Both letters said: “To see awrong and not expose it, is tobecome a silent partner to itscontinuance.” Both weresigned, “I am KC and Iapprove this message.”

The letters had Washingtonon edge in the days after theBoston Marathon bombing.As authorities scurried toinvestigate three questionablepackages discovered in Senateoffice buildings Wednesday,reports of suspicious itemsalso came in from at leastthree senators’ offices in theirhome states. The items werefound to be harmless.

WASHINGTON (AP) —President Barack Obama andhis gun control allies saySenate rejection of expandedbackground checks andother restrictions won’t stoptheir drive to reduce firearmsviolence. But their path toenacting gun curbs this yearseems blocked by theNational Rifle Association,and supporters of restric-tions appear befuddledabout what it will take topush legislation through thisCongress.

The Senate planned tovote today on two moreamendments to a gun controlbill. One by Sen. John Bar-rasso, R-Wyo., would cut aidto state and local govern-ments that release informa-tion on gun owners. Anotherby Sens. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, and Lamar Alexander,R-Tenn., would bolster fed-eral mental health programs.

But just four months aftera gunman killed 20 childrenand six adults at an elemen-tary school in Newtown,Conn., the Senate provedunwilling Wednesday toapprove the key elements ofPresident Barack Obama’sresponse to the massacre.Lawmakers rejected broaderfederal background checksand bans on assault weaponsand high-capacity ammuni-tion magazines, jarring guncontrol backers who thoughtNewtown would spur Con-gress to act and delivering avictory for the NRA and adefeat for Obama.

“I see this as just RoundOne,” the president said at theWhite House, surrounded byrelatives of Newtown’s vic-tims and badly wounded for-mer Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

Looking ahead to the 2014congressional elections, headded, “If this Congressrefuses to listen to the Ameri-can people and pass common-sense gun legislation, then thereal impact is going to have tocome from the voters.”

Obama blamed lawmak-ers’ fear that “the gun lobbywould spend a lot of money”and accuse them of opposingthe Second Amendment’sright to bear arms.

But opponents of therestrictions — which wouldhave been the most meaningfulgun curbs approved by Con-

gress in two decades — said thecurbs were defeated becausethey wouldn’t have worked.

Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla.,said most proposals were“predicated on one assump-tion that somehow we thinkthat the criminal elementwill single out this one law tocomply with.”

The day was not a com-plete victory for the NRA.Senators defeated one GOPamendment requiring statesthat let people carry con-cealed weapons to honorother states’ concealed carrypermits. Also rejected was aRepublican proposal lettingsome veterans with mentalproblems have firearmsunless a court blocks themfrom getting the weapons.

But when the votes wereover, it was gun control advo-cates who seemed most per-plexed about what it wouldtake to succeed. Though anAP-GfK poll shows supportfor stricter gun laws recedinga bit, surveys have also shown8 in 10 or more people back-ing expanded backgroundchecks.

“There’s never been a big-ger disconnect betweenwhere the American public ison an issue and where theSenate ended up,” said Sen.Chris Murphy, D-Conn.

“Tragically, it may takemore mass killings,” said Sen.Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who helped craft thebipartisan plan wideningbackground checks, said hewould continue talking toother senators to seewhether there were changeshe could make that wouldattract their votes. But heconceded he had no answer.

“If I knew, we wouldn’t betalking because it would havepassed,” he told a reporter.

Manchin said today his planwould have passed easily, if theNRA had not warned it wouldinclude the vote on scorecardsit uses to show whether law-makers support gun rights.Manchin, speaking at a break-fast sponsored by The WallStreet Journal, also said hethinks he lost votes becauselawmakers who may vote forgun rights or an immigrationoverhaul wanted to show theyare still conservative.

PHOENIX (AP) — Themonths since the deadlyConnecticut school shootinghave seen dozens of gun buy-back events across the coun-try, with officials gettingthousands of unwantedfirearms off the street andsending them off to theirdestruction.

In Arizona, however, theRepublican-controlled Leg-islature is now moving tosave such guns.

Prompted by a gun buy-back event in January in Tuc-son, where a 2011 shootingrampage left six dead andwounded then-U.S. Rep.Gabrielle Giffords and 12 oth-ers, GOP lawmakers crafted abill that would require localagencies to sell the firearms togun dealers. The bill, whichhas passed both chambers ofthe Legislature, tightens a2010 law that requires policeto sell seized weapons.

Dozens of buybacks havebeen held this year in statesfrom New Jersey to California.They’re popular among somepolice and elected officialswho either pay cash or handout gift cards in exchange forunwanted weapons. They’rethen destroyed, and officialssay the guns are kept out of thehands of children or thieves.

The Tucson event waschampioned by City Council-man Steve Kozachik. Thecouncil there has voted toadopt ordinances that make itillegal to fire a gun while drunk,required background checks atgun shows on city property andmandated that lost or stolenguns be reported to police.

BOSTON (AP) — Thepainstaking work to identifya bombing suspect fromreams of Boston Marathonfootage yielded a possiblebreakthrough as investiga-tors focused on a man seendropping off a bag, and thenwalking away from the site ofthe second of two deadlyexplosions.

The discovery of the image— found on surveillancefootage from a departmentstore near the finish line —

was detailed by a city politi-cian two days after the attackthat left three people dead,wounded more than 170, andcast a dark shadow over oneof this city’s most joyous tra-ditions. The footage hasn’tbeen made public.

President Barack Obama isplanning to attend a servicehonoring the victims today inBoston, where police werestationed on street cornersacross downtown and someresidents admitted they were

nervous moving about inpublic spaces.

People lined up hoursahead of time this morningto get into the city’s RomanCatholic cathedral for theinterfaith service.

Massachusetts Gov. DevalPatrick said he shared thefrustration that the personor people responsible werestill at large, but he said solv-ing the case will not “happenby magic.”

“It’s going to happen by

doing the careful work thatmust be done in a thoroughinvestigation,” Patrick said.“That means going throughthe couple of blocks at theblast scene square inch bysquare inch and picking uppieces of evidence and fol-lowing those trails, andthat’s going to take sometime.”

Investigators had appealedto the public to providevideos and photographs fromthe race finish line.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — In awindowless conference roomin a Las Vegas casino, aboutthree dozen people areswishing their fingers acrossiPads, trying out test versionsof new apps and screening forglitches. Many are from far-flung American Indian reser-vations, and their high-techdevices are serving a decid-edly old-school purpose:trying to save their languagesfrom the brink of extinction.

Experts say a growingnumber of tribes are trying torevitalize their languages,which in some cases are spo-ken by only a small handfulof people. And increasingly,they’re enlisting technologyin the effort.

“We’re in a race againsttime,” said Lewis “Bleu” St.Cyr, 26, who attended the Feb-ruary workshop to scope outthe possibility of developing alanguage learning app for theWinnebago Tribe of Nebraska.“The goal is for younger kids toget interested.”

Linguists estimate about200 Native American lan-guages are spoken in the U.S.and Canada, with another 100already extinct. In the early1990s, experts estimated only11 percent of tribal languageswere still being passed tradi-tionally from parents to chil-dren. The bulk of the surviv-ing languages were spokenonly by tribal members whowere middle-aged or older.

Ex-N.M. gov. briberycase back in court

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.(AP) — The allegationsagainst retired state NewMexico District JudgeMichael Murphy were star-tling, even in a state knownfor its political scandals.

The judge told a potentialjudicial candidate she wouldneed to make payments to aDemocratic political activistif she wanted a seat on thebench, a report from prosecu-tors said. The money wouldthen be funneled to formerGov. Bill Richardson, he said.

It was one of a string ofinvestigations into allegedpay-to-play activities withties to Richardson, whose2008 nomination to a Cabi-net post in President BarackObama’s administration wasscuttled by a federal probe ofhow a Richardson politicaldonor landed lucrative workon state transportation bonddeals.

matic scene that was broad-cast live on Pakistani TV.Lawyers shouted, “Look whois running, Musharraf is run-ning!”

He raced to his large com-pound on the outskirts ofIslamabad, which is protect-ed by high walls, razor wireand guard towers. He holedup inside as dozens of policeand elite commandosblocked the main road thatruns to the compound and

kept the converging crowd atbay. About 20 Musharrafsupporters held banners andshouted slogans in favor ofthe former military ruler.

None of the security forcesprotecting the compoundmade any move to arrestMusharraf, likely becausethey were awaiting wordfrom senior officials trying tofigure out how to deal with adelicate situation.

This week has gone from

bad to worse for Musharraf,who seized power in a coupin 1999 when he was serv-ing as army chief and spentnearly a decade in powerbefore being forced to stepdown in 2008. He returnedlast month after four yearsin self-imposed exile tomake a political comebackdespite legal challenges andTaliban death threats, buthas since faced paltry publicsupport.

MARSEILLE, France (AP) —The computer records werescrubbed, inspectors said therewas no mention of industrialsilicone in quality-controldocuments, and an employeeat the factory in southernFrance said they were instruct-ed not to ask too many ques-tions about the breast implantssold worldwide.

As a fraud trial openedWednesday, hundreds ofwomen who crowded into amakeshift courtroom werenot the only ones claimingthey were cheated by PolyImplant Prothese, which isaccused of using cheap sili-cone to fill tens of thousandsof implants that were proneto ruptures and leaking.

A former employee of PIPsaid in an interview they toowere victims of the deception.

Jean-Claude Mas, whofounded and ran the now-defunct company, is amongthose facing trial in the south-ern city of Marseille on chargesof fraud and swindling. Thecompany had claimed its fac-tory in France exported tomore than 60 countries andwas one of the world’s leadingimplant makers.

The implants were notavailable in the United States,but more than 125,000 womenworldwide received them untilsales ended in March 2010. Ofthose, more than 5,000 arejoining the trial, saying theexecutives misled them intobelieving the silicone gelimplants were safe.

This citizen journalism image has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, shows amass burial of people allegedly killed by Syrian Army snipers, in Aleppo, Syria, on Wednesday.

BEIRUT (AP) — Syria’spresident accused the Weston Wednesday of backing al-Qaida in his country’s civilwar, warning it will pay aprice “in the heart” of Europeand the United States as theterror network becomesemboldened.

Bashar Assad also lashedout at Jordan for allowing“thousands” of fighters toenter Syria through its borders.

The rare TV interviewcomes as the embattledpresident’s military is fight-ing to reverse rebel advances,with a rocket attack killing atleast 12 people in a centralvillage on Wednesday.

Assad’s full interview wasto be aired later Wednesdayon the government-run Al-Ikhbariya channel, markingSyria’s independence day.Excerpts of the interviewwere broadcast in advanceand posted on his office’sFacebook page.

In the excerpts, Assadoffered no evidence to backhis charge that the U.S. wasnow backing the interna-tional terror group responsi-ble for the Sept. 11, 2001,attacks in the United States.

Extremist groups such asthe al-Qaida-affiliated Jabhatal-Nusra are gaining groundin Syria’s two-year civil war.

Jabhat al-Nusra, or the NusraFront, has emerged as themost effective force amongthe mosaic of rebel unitsfighting to topple Assad.

Last week, Nusra Frontleader Abu Mohammad al-Gonali pledged allegiance toal-Qaida’s leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri.

Washington has designatedJabhat al-Nusra a terroristorganization over its links withal-Qaida. The Obama admin-istration opposes directlyarming Syrian oppositionfighters, in part out of fear thatthe weapons could fall into thehands of Islamic extremistssuch as the Nusra Front.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) —The family of Nelson Mandelasought today to present aunited front in a dispute withlongtime associates of theformer South African presi-dent over control of two com-panies.

In a statement, all but oneof Mandela’s grandchildrensaid the associates, includinglawyer George Bizos andTokyo Sexwale, a business-man and Cabinet minister,have tried to portray theMandela family as “insensi-tive money-grabbers” with norespect for the legacy of theanti-apartheid leader and

Nobel Peace Prize laureate.“Most of us are gainfully

employed, work for our owncompanies and run our ownprojects,” said the statement,which did not identify any ofthe grandchildren by name.

Mandela has 17 grandchil-dren and 14 great-grandchil-dren, according to the NelsonMandela Center of Memory, afoundation based inJohannesburg. They includegranddaughter TukwiniMandela, marketing directorof a winemaking companythat carries the Mandelaname, and two other grand-daughters who are starring in

a U.S. television reality showtitled “Being Mandela.”

The statement wasapproved by all the grandchil-dren except Mandla Mandela,a tribal chief in the Mvezo areaof Eastern Cape province,where Nelson Mandela grewup. South African media havequoted Mandla Mandela assaying he wants to distancehimself from the dispute.

Two daughters of 94-year-old Mandela, who wasan iconic fighter against racistwhite rule, have opened acourt case against Bizos andassociates, saying they shouldnot remain directors of two

companies whose proceedsare supposed to benefit theMandela family.

Bizos, a human rightsadvocate, says he is a longtimesupporter of the Mandelafamily and that he gotinvolved in the companies on

Mandela’s instructions. Hehelped to defend Mandeladuring the 1960s trial that ledto the African NationalCongress figure’s convictionon sabotage charges and asentence of life imprison-ment.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP)— Asked if there might be war,the 40ish woman with thespangly purple shirt laughedout loud. She waved her handsback and forth, as if whiskingaway a pesky insect.

She fled North Korea latelast summer, pushing her wayat night through the chest-deep waters of the AmnokRiver, following a guide intoChina and, eventually, toSouth Korea. The journey costher $5,000, a fortune backhome.

She comes from a part ofrural North Korea where elec-tricity is a rarity, and the pun-ishing winters seem to lastforever. She came to a city oftwo-story-tall TV screensthat light up the night, a citystalked by armies of financialanalysts in well-tailored suits.

Now, amid internationalfears that North Korea may bepreparing for another missiletest, and repeated warningsfrom Pyongyang that it willdestroy its enemies, she sim-ply scoffs. The exiles have seenlife in both Koreas, and areunimpressed with what theyleft behind.

“It’s not even possible forNorth Korea to have a war,”said the woman, who spentyears arranging black marketdeals for bronze smuggled toChina. She asked that hername and other identifyingdetails not be used, to protectrelatives still living in theNorth.

“They don’t have fuel.They don’t have electricity,”she said. “Even if they yell tothe world that they’ll go towar, it’s all just talk.”

Foreign analysts have longsaid that North Korea’s des-perate shortages are, in part,because Pyongyang channelsso much of its resources to themilitary and into weaponsdevelopment. But in a countrywhere bicycles remain a statussymbol for most people, theexiles say North Korea is sopoor and undeveloped that itknows it would lose any fight.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretaryof State John Kerry called forpatience despite widespread frustra-tion with the recent failure of negoti-ations between six world powers andIran over its disputed nuclear pro-gram and growing fears of Tehrandeveloping a weapon of massdestruction.

Testifying today before theSenate Foreign RelationsCommittee, Kerry said he was disap-pointed by the inconclusive talks inKazakhstan earlier this month, butinsisted that a diplomatic resolutionis still the best option. The interna-tional community fears Tehran isdeveloping a nuclear weapon; Iraninsists its work is for peaceful pur-poses.

Congress has repeatedly pressedfor tough sanctions on Iran, con-vinced that undermining its econo-my and oil revenue will thwart itsnuclear program.

Kerry, in urging patience, high-lighted uncertainty in Tehran, with apower struggle two months ahead ofJune elections, and said he did notexpect “anything dramatic” in thenext few weeks.

“We don’t need to spin this up atthis point in time,” Kerry told thepanel.

The secretary reiterated PresidentBarack Obama’s past statements thatthe United States will ensure thatIran does not get a nuclear weapon.

Committee Chairman BobMenendez, D-N.J., and other law-

makers have succeeded in securingseveral rounds of penalties on Iran’sbanking and energy sectors.

Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., a topsponsor of sanctions legislationsince his arrival in the Senate inJanuary 2011, is crafting a bill thatwould target regime officials whoviolate human rights with travel bansand seizure of assets, and essentiallyimpose a commercial and financialembargo on Iran.

It also would basically impose atough arms embargo on Iran, itsproxies in Gaza and southernLebanon, as well as North Korea,Syria and Sudan. The measure wouldclose loopholes in current law relatedto Iran’s access to foreign exchangereserves.

Current sanctions have undercutthe Iranian economy, causing highunemployment and inflation, whiledaily oil production and the value ofthe country’s currency, the rial, havedropped.

Kirk’s latest effort would markthe fifth time since June 2010 thatCongress has slapped penalties onIran.

Any penalties are certain to drawstrong bipartisan support as law-makers, fearful of Iran’s ambitionsand worried about its threat to Israel,have overwhelmingly embraced pastsanctions legislation.

Menendez reminded Kerry thatthe diplomatic window with Iran isclosing, giving impetus to the con-gressional moves for more sanctions.

searched separate wings andfound residents in wheel-chairs trapped in theirrooms. The halls were dark,and the ceilings had col-lapsed. Water filled the hall-ways. Electrical wires hungeerily from the ceilings.

“They had Sheetrock thatwas on top of them. You hadto remove that,” Burch said. Itwas “completely chaotic.”

Authorities said the plantmade materials similar tothose used in the 1995 Okla-homa City bombing.

West Mayor TommyMuska told reporters that hiscity of about 2,800 peopleneeds “your prayers.”

“We’ve got a lot of peoplewho are hurt, and there’s a lotof people, I’m sure, whoaren’t going to be here tomor-row,” Muska said. “We’regoing to search for everybody.We’re going to make sureeverybody’s accounted for.That’s the most importantthing right now.”

At the Hillcrest BaptistMedical Hospital in Waco,elderly people were wheeledin on stretchers. A man in awheelchair with his T-shirtcovered in blood winced asteams tended to his wounds.

About a half-hour beforethe blast, the town’s volun-

teer firefighters had respond-ed to a call at the plant, Swan-ton said. They immediatelyrealized the potential for dis-aster because of the plant’schemical stockpile and beganevacuating the area aroundthe plant.

The blast happened 20minutes later. Muska, whowas among the firefighters,said it knocked off his firehelmet and blew out thedoors and windows of hisnearby home.

The main fire was undercontrol late Wednesday, butresidents were urged toremain indoors because of thethreat of new explosions orleaks of ammonia from the

plant.Firefighters used flash-

lights to search the still-burning skeleton of an apart-ment complex that was all butdestroyed. A flood-lit footballfield was initially used as astaging area, then other triagecenters sprung up around theblast site.

First-responders evacuat-ed 133 patients from the nurs-ing home, some in wheel-chairs. Many were dazed andpanicked and did not knowwhat happened.

Erick Perez was playingbasketball at a nearby schoolwhen the fire started. He andhis friends thought nothingof it at first, but about a half-

hour later, the smoke changedcolor. The blast threw him,his nephew and others to theground and showered the areawith hot embers, shrapneland debris.

“The explosion was likenothing I’ve ever seenbefore,” Perez said. “Thistown is hurt really bad.”

The U.S. Chemical SafetyBoard said it was deploying alarge investigation team toWest. An ATF nationalresponse team that investi-gates all large fires and explo-sions was also expected,bringing fire investigators,certified explosives special-ists, chemists, canines andforensic specialists.

Zogg completed her under-graduate work at Boise StateUniversity before going to theUniversity of Massachusettsat Amherst for her master’sdegree in public health. Shereceived her doctorate fromWalden University.

After her Air Force stint,she worked in Boise, ascend-ing the public health ranks.Within seven years she hadbecome division director forcommunity health.

Now she looks forward tobringing her skills to the aidof the South Coast.

“My parents did a great jobraising me, but I was reallyraised by the community,”Zogg said. “I went a lot fur-ther in my career and my edu-cation than I ever thought Iwould. I have gained a lot ofskills, and have a lot of experi-ence, and can make a differ-ence in the community.”

Right now she is in infor-mation-gathering mode tosee how best to make that dif-ference, and to learn the com-munity needs, the communi-ty resources, and what thecommunity is willing to do tohelp public health.

She does come with a mis-

sion statement: “Healthypeople — healthy communi-ties.”

It goes back, she said, toher Coos County childhood.She remembers whenemployment, the local econ-omy and public health wereall in good shape.

“To address public healthissues, you have to look atsome of the underlyingissues that impact health,like poverty, unemploymentand education. A lot of whatI hope to do is advocate for acommunitywide effortaddressing health — every-thing from jobs to improvingaccess to public health andcontinuing to protect healththrough the communicabledisease efforts that we have.”

It’s a large effort, but Zoggcontends it can be achievedby everybody working for acommon goal.

“While I may be seen as aleader for public health, itreally takes everybody com-ing together to make a differ-ence.”

Metro State is coached byTanya Haave, a former player oflegendary Tennessee coach PatSummitt. The school’s men’s teamwon the NCAA Division II nation-al title this winter.

“Their gym gets prettypacked,” Eharis said.

During her visit, she fell in lovewith Denver. The school also fitsher educational goals. She willmajor in biology, with a minor inchemistry and the goal of being azookeeper.

“They took me to the DenverZoo during my visit,” she said.

At SWOCC, Eharis helped theLakers reach the NWAACC tour-nament the past two seasons.

“All of her hard work the lasttwo years came down to theopportunity of her getting to playtwo more years and continue a

quality education,” said MikeHerbert, SWOCC’s women’s headcoach.

Eharis said playing for theLakers has helped her develop to besuccessful at the next level — bothacademically and athletically.

“This school has been great forme,” she said. “I’m very happy.

“I can’t thank everybodyenough, especially my two greatcoaches.”

Herbert and his top assistant,Kristin Jones, flanked Eharis whileshe signed her letter of intent.Several players sat behind her insupport.

The same was the case for thefour softball players — NatalieMorrow, Brianne Bowling, JaymeSimones and Mary Menicucci.

Morrow and Bowling willattend Union College, an NAIAschool in Kentucky. Simones willhead to Hawaii Pacific University,and Menicucci will play for CalState San Bernardino.

Laker softball coach MeganCorriea said she doesn’t keep trackof how many of her former playershave moved on to four-yearschools, but it’s an impressivenumber — several most seasons.

“That’s what their goal is,” shesaid. “We come in and talk aboutwhat school is the right fit forthem and go from there.”

COOS BAY — Marshfield’ssoftball team rode an eight-runthird inning to annihilate NorthEugene 14-1 on Wednesday.

Marshfield starting pitcherBreanne Johnson gave herself runsupport early, with a three-runhome run in the bottom of the firstinning, knocking in Jade Chavezand Katelyn Rossback.

Johnson finished the day 2-for-2 with four RBIs and two runs. Onthe mound, she gave up only oneearned run on two hits in fiveinnings, with six strikeouts.

Besides Johnson, center fielderChavez was the most consistentPirate offensively on the day. Shewent 3-for-4 with two doubles,two runs and a stolen base.

Sophomore Chavez has addedwhat her coach Floyd Montiel hascalled a “special spark” after beingplugged in at leadoff four gamesago. She’s still transitioning to hit-ting from the left side to takeadvantage of her speed, and sheholds her head high about herdevelopment since last year.

“I feel like I’ve done a lot betterthen I did last year, at least interms of my hitting and being ableto step it up in center field,”Chavez said. “This year, I feel likeI’m more confident up at bat.Usually I’m nervous and scaredbefore the game, but then I get upthere and hit the ball, and I know Ican do it.”

Chavez said she was mostproud about cashing in on an RBIopportunity during Marshfield’smonster third inning. Suchchances are rare for leadoff hitters.

The Pirates tallied eight runs oneight hits in 12 at-bats during theinning. Chelsea Pettett — whowent 2-for-2 with a triple in theinning — was first to get on base.Then eight of the next nine Piratebatters crossed home. AliciaHatzel highlighted the inningwhen she drove a ball over the headof North Eugene right fielderNakkia Slenberg for an inside-the-park home run. Not too shab-by, considering Hatzel tore herACL last June.

The game was called in the fifthinning because of the 10-run rule.

Montiel said he was pleased tosee his players make adjustmentsduring the big third inning.Innings like those make his job alot easier.

“That one inning was a lot offun,” Montiel said. “Just to see thekids excited, all jazzed up and real-ly fired up, it’s really special whenyou can do that. You don’t getthose kind of innings often. We’vebeen looking for that game werewe play a perfect seven. I don’tknow if we’ve done that quite yet,but we’re getting closer.”

Annual Prefontaine Rotary Invitational is Saturday

BY JOHN GUNTHERThe World

COOS BAY — Marshfield wason the cusp of another step in itsseason of improvement — chal-lenging for a Midwestern Leaguewin — when two bad innings got inthe way.

The Pirates led North Eugene2-1 after scoring twice in the sec-ond inning Wednesday. But thevisiting H ighlanders battedaround while scoring six times inthe third inning, and then did thesame thing in the seventh. Theyleft town with a 14-2 victory.

“It should have been closer,” saidMarshfield’s Tyler Johnson. “We’rea way better team than last year.

“We just need to put every-thing together and start clicking.”

Johnson was a big part ofMarshfield’s one good offensivestretch in Wednesday’s game, hit-ting a solo home run in the secondinning. Johnson said he “had afeeling” his drive to right centerfield was going out.

Immediately after Johnson’shomer, Anthony Ross was hit by apitch, moved to second on a wildpitch, took third on a sacrifice byVern Stevens, and came home on agrounder by Michael Benitez.

But that was all the runsMarshfield could muster off NorthEugene’s Kevin Haase, despitehaving at least one hit in every

inning but the seventh, and get-ting two runners on without scor-ing three different innings.

Haase gave up seven hits andstruck out six Marshfield batters.Twice, the Highlanders turneddouble plays behind him.

“We took care of the ball a littlebetter than Monday,” saidMarshfield coach Scott Carpenter,referring to a loss at Marist.“We’ve got to figure out how toturn the page.”

Tyler Campbell had two hitsfor Marshfield, and Ross was onbase three times. Along with beinghit by a pitch, he reached by errorand had a single.

But where Marshfield repeat-edly failed to score with runnerson base, North Eugene had its twobig innings.

The Highlanders had six hits inthe third inning and took advan-tage of one big Marshfield error tokeep the inning alive. In the sev-enth, the Highlanders poundedout seven more hits.

Dalton Pachano had two dou-bles and two singles and finishedwith four RBIs and two runs forNorth Eugene. Five other playershad at least two runs, and five hadat least two hits.

North Eugene improved to 3-1in league play, while the Pirates fellto 0-4. Marshfield is home againFriday to face Churchill, which hasa 1-3 league record.

Logano waslate to the starting gridbecause of additional inspec-tions and had to start at theback of the field. He recov-ered to finish fifth andKeselowski was ninth.

Penske Racing vowed toappeal, a move that wouldput any suspensions on hold.

Menicucci describedCorriea as the driving forcefor the players to get anopportunity at the next level— talking with coaches andscouting out possible schools.

“She works for it,”Menicucci said. “She basi-cally plays the mom role.”

Morrow and Bowling bothhave extended family in theKentucky area, and saidUnion College is a lot likeSWOCC.

“They’re a very smallschool,” Bowling said.“They’re athletically orient-ed. They even have a lake oncampus.”

“It fit perfectly,” saidMorrow. “They were lookingfor a pitcher (Morrow) and anoutfielder (Bowling).”

Simonis, meanwhile, isheaded toward Hawaii, a bigchange for the outfielder

from the Portland area.“I had an opportunity to

live out all my dreams,” shesaid. “Their program is a lotlike the way I play. They workreally hard.”

Hawaii Pacific is aDivision II school, just likeCal State San Bernardino,where Menicucci will play.

“It’s a great opportunity,”Menicucci, an infielder, said.“Not many people get thatopportunity. I’m grateful forit.”

Like Eharis, the softballplayers have specific educa-

tional plans. Simonis wantsto be a college math instruc-tor and coach, whileMenicucci wants to be a pri-mary school teacher. Bowlingplans to get a degree in psy-chology, and Morrow willstudy biology.

Unlike Eharis, the softballplayers still have more sea-son. They are in third place inthe tough NWAACC SouthRegion.

“It’s nice to get themsigned before the season’sover,” Corriea said. “It takesthe pressure off.”

Aceves(1-0), whobegan theseason inBoston’s bullpen, took ashutout into the sixth beforegiving up three runs. AndrewBailey, filling for injuredcloser Joel Hanrahan, workedthe ninth for his first save.

Napoli had an RBI singlein the first when the Red Soxscored three off Masterson(3-1), who has already beatentwo Cy Young Award winnersthis season and came inwithout allowing a run in 19

straight innings.Nick Swisher and Jason

Giambi homered for theIndians, who dropped theirthird in a row.

Tigers 2, Mariners 1, 14innings: Detroit catcherBrayan Pena held onto PrinceFielder’s relay throw andabsorbed a collision withJustin Smoak at home platefor the final out, and theTigers outlasted the SeattleMariners in 14 innings.

Smoak singled with oneout off Joaquin Benoit, andwith two outs Dustin Ackleydoubled into the right-fieldcorner. Third base coach JeffDatz didn’t hesitate in waiv-ing Smoak around with thepotential tying run.

Torii Hunter started therelay from the outfield, andFielder’s throw was up thethird base line a bit. Pena,however, caught it in plentyof time and held onto the ballas Smoak crashed into him.

Detroit took the lead inthe top of the 14th whenPena’s bases-loaded ground-out scored pinch-runner Don

Kelly. The conclusion camelong after starters FelixHernandez and Max Scherzerpitched gems in a game thatincluded a whopping 40strikeouts.

According to theMariners, it was the secondtime in major league historythat both teams had morethan 18 strikeouts. The onlyother time was June 16, 2001,when the Giants and Padresboth struck out 20 times in a15-inning game.

Boosted by the return of sluggerChase Headley from a broken thumb,the Padres pounded out 13 hits and beatone of baseball’s best pitchers. After

arriving with a 2-10 record, San Diegoearned its first sweep at DodgerStadium of three or more games sinceJuly 2006.

Nationals 6, Marlins 1: RossDetwiler departed with a lead for thethird start in a row and this time thebullpen held on as Bryce Harper and theWashington Nationals beat the MiamiMarlins.

Alija Izetbegovic, the first presi-dent of Bosnia and Herzegovina, said,“We play an active role and try to influ-ence our destiny; we have our owntrump cards and we use them.”

So far this week, we have beenlooking at defenses in no-trump con-tracts aided by placing declarer’s high-card points based on the bidding andplay. Suitably assisted, one defenderhas known which suit to attack to gainsufficient tricks to defeat the contract.Now let’s move to trump contracts.

South is in four spades. West

leads the heart ace. How should Eastplan the defense?

The auction given is usingStandard. If you have adopted two-over-one game-forcing, North wouldrebid three spades because the open-er’s hand strength is undefined. ThenSouth would bid four spades to indi-cate a minimum.

East does not want his partner toshift, so should signal with his heartnine at trick one. West cashes theheart king and plays his third heart.After East wins with his queen, what

does he do next?East should count thepoints. South showed 12to 14, the dummy has 13,West has already pro-duced seven, and Easthas seven. Since all fourjacks are on view, Westcannot have anotherhonor card. The onlychance for a fourth tricklies in the trump suit.East must lead his lastheart. Here, when Westruffs with the spade nine,it uppercuts dummy’squeen and promotes aspade trick for East.When you have takenevery possible side-suittrick, give a ruff-and-sluff.It might result in a trumppromotion or an uppercut.

Parking brake will wear out if used dailyDDeeaarr TToomm aanndd RRaayy::I’m looking to resolve a

brake discussion between meand my dad. Do you thinkyou two can help? My car is a1996 Honda Accord, four-cylinder, five-speed. Iunderstand that the emer-gency brake is designed foremergency situations, suchas when the usual brakingpower is not enough to stopthe vehicle or the braking hasfailed completely ... hencethe name “emergencybrake.” However, is theemergency brake able to beused slowly to help stop thevehicle daily? Does pullingback on the brake handle oneclick at a time to help slowthe vehicle harm the brakingsystem or present any dan-ger? Many thanks. — Todd

RRAAYY:: We’re guessing thatyou’re the “brake puller” inthis family, Todd. You’reprobably doing this becauseyou think it’s an easy way toprolong the life of your regu-lar brakes. But you may besurprised to know that thehand brake is actuallydesigned for parking, notstopping. Hence its realname, the “parking brake.”

TTOOMM:: It used to be calledthe “emergency brake,” butafter several car companiesgot sued because it didn’tstop the car in an emergency,car company lawyers forcedthem to change the name tothe more accurate “parkingbrake.”

RRAAYY:: It’s really notdesigned to stop a movingcar; it’s designed to keep thecar stopped once it’s parked,so that it doesn’t roll away ifthe transmission or clutchfails.

TTOOMM:: There are two pri-mary types of parkingbrakes. One type uses thesame brake pads that yourbrake pedal actuates,although the parking brakeuses only the brakes on thetwo rear wheels, rather thanall four wheels.

RRAAYY:: So, in that situa-tion, you’re not saving yourbrakes at all — you’re justapplying them differently. Infact, if you have a pull-upparking brake like yourAccord has, you’ll stretchand, eventually, break theparking brake cables if youuse them that way every day.

TTOOMM:: The other type ofparking brake employs itsown, separately houseddrum brakes on the rearwheels. Using those brakeswill provide some additionalbraking. However, theseparking brakes are not veryrobust, can be hard to accessand can be very expensive toreplace. So you may save $3worth of brake pads in a yearand cost yourself a $300parking-brake job.

RRAAYY:: Either way, it’s not agood idea to use the parkingbrake for day-to-day stop-ping. Now, in an emergency,if your regular brakes aren’tworking, you absolutelyshould try the parking brake.I mean, why not? You’ve gotnothing to lose. And if it’s ingood working condition, itmight actually help youavoid a collision.

TTOOMM:: But it’s notdesigned to stop a car that’straveling at speed. So youcan’t count on it for that.And using it for that purposeevery day will mean it’s lessable to do its real job: keepingyour car from rolling intosome mobster’s Cadillacwhen you forget to park it ingear. And if you think brakepads are expensive, try newknees.

Cause should befound when a newbattery dies

DDeeaarr TToomm aanndd RRaayy::I live near the ocean, and

my less- than-a-year-oldbattery died this week. Myneighbor, who jumped thebattery with his cables, saidthat my connections shouldbe disconnected and cleaned

with a wire brush due to cor-rosion. My other neighborsaid that she poured a can ofCoke on her battery and itcleaned off all of the corro-sion. Before I start pouringCoke on my car battery, mayI have your opinion on herfantastic remedy? — Martha

RRAAYY:: We prefer Dr.Pepper, Martha.

TTOOMM:: If you do have a lotof corrosion between theposts and the terminal endsof the battery, it can preventthe battery from beingcharged completely, or dis-charged when you need thepower.

RRAAYY:: But you shouldn’thave that kind of corrosionon a year-old battery — evenif your next-door neighborsare Mr. and Mrs. SeaCucumber.

TTOOMM:: Corrosion like thatusually is caused by “out-gassing,” which means theacid in your battery is escap-ing from its container ingaseous form.

RRAAYY:: That can be causedby either a faulty battery —in which case yours shouldbe covered by warranty — ora charging system that’s“overcharging” the batteryand causing it to emit gas.

TTOOMM:: So you’ll want totake your car to a goodmechanic, and ask him totest your battery and charg-ing system.

RRAAYY:: If all’s well, the cor-

rosion may be a red herring.Especially since we knowherring live near you in theocean. Your battery mayhave died due to humanerror: You may have left adome light on, or simply leftthe car sitting for a fewweeks without driving it.

TTOOMM:: If there IS a prob-lem with the charging sys-tem, then you need to fix thatbefore you blow through anymore good batteries.

RRAAYY:: And Coke — withits carbonic and phosphoricacids — will help removecorrosion from battery ter-minals, as will any carbonat-ed beverage (they all containcarbonic acid). Although anice sparkling water, with-out the sugary syrup, wouldbe an even better choice. Addlime or a twist if you wantyour terminals to feel partic-ularly refreshed.

TTOOMM:: Or even better, andcheaper, mix a little bakingsoda with water to make arunny paste. Remove thebattery’s terminal ends,smear your mixture on thebattery posts and terminals,give them each a little scrubwith a wire brush, and rinseit all off with a garden hose.
