KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Both Taliban insurgents and the U.S. military were to blame for an airstrike a week ago that killed 17 peo- ple, including a dozen children, during a fierce battle in eastern Afghanistan, President Hamid Karzai said. Karzai made his comments after an Afghan investigation into the April 6 attack raised the civilian death toll from 11 to 17, including 12 children, four women and one innocent man. An American civilian adviser was also killed during the fighting. The Afghan report says the U.S. strike occurred after the Afghan intelligence service came under attack by militants during an operation to arrest two insurgent commanders in the Shigal district of Kunar province. The area is a major infiltration route for insurgents from sanctuaries in northwestern Pakistan to Afghanistan. The U.S.-led coalition has confirmed that it launched airstrikes in Kunar province that day but it has not confirmed civilian casualties, saying the investigation is ongoing. Afghan forces came under fire with heavy and light weapons as they were about to leave the area.

War ofwordsNorth Koreatakes hard lineas U.S. talks updiplomacy

TOKYO (AP) — TheUnited States and Japanopened the door Sunday tonew nuclear talks if NorthKorea lowered tensionsand honored past agree-ments, even as the saber-rattling government reject-ed South Korea’s latestoffer of dialogue as a“crafty trick.”

U.S. Secretary of StateJohn Kerry told reportersin Tokyo that North Koreawould find “ready part-ners” in the United Statesif it began abandoning itsnuclear program.

Japan’s foreign minis-ter, Fumio Kishida, alsodemanded a resolution to adispute concerning Jap-anese citizens abducteddecades ago by NorthKorean officials.

The diplomats seemedto point the way for a pos-sible revival of the six-nation talks that have beensuspended for four years.

China long pushed hasfor the process to resumewithout conditions. But theU.S. and allies South Koreaand Japan fear rewardingNorth Korea for its bel-ligerence and endless repe-tition of a cycle of tensionsand failed talks that haveprolonged the crisis.

Kerry’s message ofopenness to diplomacy wasclear, however unlikely thechances appeared thatNorth Korean leader KimJong Un’s governmentwould meet the American’sconditions.

“I’m not going to be sostuck in the mud that anopportunity to actually getsomething done is fla-grantly wasted because ofa kind of predeterminedstubbornness,” he told U.S.-based journalists.

COLUMBUS (AP) —Flood warnings remain inparts of Ohio as water fromlast week’s drenching rain-storms continues to swellsome rivers and close some

roads. The National WeatherService said flood warningsremained in effect Sundayfor the Maumee River innorthwest Ohio, the SciotoRiver in central Ohio, andKillbuck Creek south ofCleveland.The flood-prone Blan-

chard River finally recededbelow flood stage Saturday.It overflowed its banks

after Wednesday andThursday storms, sendingbusiness owners and resi-dents in the town of Findlayscrambling for higherground.The weather service

anticipates most lingeringflooding will subside by earlytoday, with the Scioto expect-ed to recede about 3 a.m.Tuesday.

COLUMBUS (AP) —Updated data indicatesinsured losses from stormsthat socked Ohio in lateJune and early July totaled$845 million in the state, ornearly double the initialestimate released by aninsurance industry tradegroup.The series of storms

between June 29 and July 2still ranks third among thecostliest Ohio catastrophesin modern history in termsof insured losses, accordingto the Ohio InsuranceInstitute. The HurricaneIke windstorm inSeptember 2008 tops thelist with insured losses ofmore than $1.2 billion, andthe Xenia tornado outbreakin 1974 ranks second.Based on its initial

claims survey, the institutehad estimated insurance

claims from the storms lastsummer would total at least$433 million.That didn’t include the

$29 million in damage toinfrastructure and cleanupcosts reported by more thanthree dozen affected Ohiocounties.The updated estimate of

$845 million from morethan 145,000 claims isbased on more recent infor-mation from PropertyClaim Services, a unit of ananalytics company that col-lects data about the extentof disasters for insurers.Property Claim Services

gathers more detailed infor-mation from more insur-ance companies than areincluded in the OhioInsurance Institute sur-veys, providing a broaderview, said Mitch Wilson, anOII spokesman.

“It’s probably going to bea better snapshot of what’sgoing on,” he said.The June 29 “derecho”

straight-line storm toreacross the Midwest andmid-Atlantic regions withlittle warning and windsgusts of up to 100 mph, anda million customers in Ohiolost power, some of them forup to a week amid the sum-mer heat.Two days later, another

line of severe storms rolledthrough the state, causinganother round of significantpower outages.President Barack

Obama declared a majordisaster in Ohio andordered federal aid forareas affected by thestorms, allowing federal aidto be used to repair andreplace damaged facilitiesin affected counties.

“I guess they get thatfrom mom,” she said, laugh-ing.During the time leading

up to her last days, Sheldonsaid she received an out-pouring of support from herco-workers and customers.Flowers and cards weredelivered, she received tips

at the drive-through andeven has plans to takewalks with a longtime cus-tomer she has befriended.“I didn’t realize how spe-

cial I was to some of themuntil this,” she said.During retirement she

plans on spending moretime with her husband,including camping at theirtrailer at Stillwater Beach,and attending her grandchil-drens’ practically year-roundsporting events, whichinclude baseball, softball,track and wrestling.The couple also plan to

take a cruise or trip toHawaii next year, a retire-ment gift to herself, she said.She also intends to make useof the lifetime of substantialdiscounts she will nowreceive from Frisch’s forserving the company for 20-plus years to enjoy herfavorite soup and salad barand peanut butter pie.The newly retired

Sheldon offers a little adviceto those who will, or do,work in a customer service-based business — or justpeople in general.“Treat people the way

you’d want to be treatedyourself,” she said. “Be kindand caring and treat peoplespecial.”

At two big banks, recordearnings, but lower revenue

NEWYORK (AP) —JPMorgan Chase and WellsFargo, bellwethers for the bank-ing industry, reported recordearnings Friday, but those num-bers masked troubling declinesin revenue.

Revenue fell slightly at bothbanks, and the earnings gainscame largely from slashingexpenses and related measures.JPMorgan socked away less tocover potential lawsuits andreleased some of the money setaside for bad loans.Wells cutback on office space.

The results show that in anera of sluggish loan demandand increased government regu-lations, banks must stay lean ifthey want to boost earnings. Theindustry has come a long waysince the panic of the financialcrisis, but the pattern it’s settledinto is one of cutting expensesand maintaining revenue ratherthan turbocharged growth.

have been dismissed as bluster, U.S. and SouthKorean say they believe the North in the comingdays may test a mid-range missile designed toreach as far as Guam, the U.S. territory in thePacific where the Pentagon is deploying a land-based missile-defense system.Japan is the last stop on a 10-day trip overseas

for Kerry, who visited Seoul and Beijing as well inrecent days.In South Korea, he strongly warned North

Korea not to launch a missile and he reaffirmedU.S. defense of its allies in the region. In China,he secured a public pledge from Beijing, the lonegovernment with significant influence over NorthKorea, to rid the North of nuclear weapons.Before returning to the United States, Kerry

planned a speech today in Japan on the Obamaadministration’s Asia policy.So far, Republican lawmakers in the U.S. have

largely backed the administration’s efforts onNorth Korea.U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., told CBS’ “Face

the Nation” that he was encouraged by Kerry’sChina visit and that he hoped “we can get theChinese to care more about this issue.U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona suggested

on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the U.S. makea counter-threat by using missile interceptors tohit any North Korean missile that is test-fired.At each stop on his trip, Kerry stressed that

the United States wanted a peaceful resolution ofthe North Korea situation six decades after acease-fire ended the Korean War. But NorthKorea on Sunday served a reminder of the diffi-cult task ahead. Its Committee for the PeacefulReunification of Korea said the government hadno intention of talking with Seoul unless theSouth abandons its confrontational posture, asthe North called it.Seoul had pressed North Korea to discuss

restarting operations at a joint factory park onthe border and President Park Geun-hye hasstressed peace opportunities after taking powerfrom her more hard-line predecessor, Lee Myung-bak. The presidency expressed regret with NorthKorea’s rebuttal Sunday.At a news conference in Tokyo, Kerry stressed

that gaining China’s commitment to a denu-clearized North Korea was no small matter givenits historically strong military and economic ties

to North Korea.But he refused to say what the Chinese were

offering to do concretely to pressure the Northinto abiding by some of the conditions it agreedto in a 2005 deal that required it to abandon itsnuclear program.“They have to take some actions,” Kerry said

of North Korea. “How many or how much? I’dhave to talk to folks back in Washington aboutthat. But if the Chinese came to us and said,‘Look, here’s what we have cooking,’ I’m not goingto tell you I’m shutting the door today to some-thing that’s logical and might have a chance ofsuccess.”In remarks to U.S. journalists, Kerry said that

under the right circumstances, he even wouldconsider making a grand overture to NorthKorea’s leader, such as an offer of direct talkswith the U.S.“We’re prepared to reach out,” he said.

Diplomacy, he added, required risk-taking andsecrecy such as when President Richard Nixonengaged China in the 1970s or U.S. back-channeltalks were able to end the Cuban missile crisis adecade earlier.Given their proximity and decades of hostility

and distrust, Japan and South Korea have themost to fear from the North’s unpredictableactions.Kerry clarified a statement he made Saturday

in Beijing, when he told reporters the U.S. couldscale back its missile-defense posture in theregion if North Korea goes nuclear-free.It appeared to be a sweetener to coax tougher

action from a Chinese government which haseyed the increased U.S. military presence in itsbackyard warily, but which has done little overthe years to snuff out funding and support forNorth Korea’s weapons of mass destruction pro-gram.Kerry said America’s basic force posture was-

n’t up to debate. “There is no discussion that Iknow of to change that,” he said.But he said it was logical that additional mis-

sile-defense elements, deployed specifically inresponse to the Korean threat, could be reversedif that threat no longer existed.“I was simply making an observation about

the rationale for that particular deployment,which is to protect the United States’ intereststhat are directly threatened by North Korea,” hesaid.

caught in crossfire has been a majorpoint of contention between interna-tional forces and the Afghan govern-ment. Earlier this year, Karzaibanned his troops from requestingcoalition airstrikes following anotherdeadly airstrike in Kunar.While he said that airstrikes on

residential areas were unacceptable,

he also strongly condemned insur-gents for taking cover in civilianhouses during the battle.Karzai also ordered government

officials to offer immediate help tothe families who were harmed in theattack, the statement said, withoutelaborating.The investigation was carried out

a more holistic perspective,”Grim said.

years, it has changed, grow-ing in staff from 20 to around48 people.“We’ve changed a lot,

we’ve gotten significantly big-ger,” Grim said. “[We are ableto] treat so many more peoplethan we used to.”Grim originally got

there and had a working rela-tionship with MCRC. He saidas inpatient programs were“getting more and more diffi-cult to access,” due to insur-ance no longer covering them,he got tired of having to talk toinsurance agencies about cov-ering a few more days of care.“I saw the handwriting on

the wall,” Grim said.He attributes much of

MCRC’s growth to the closingof the Community MentalHealth Center at UpperValley Medical Center in2010. MCRC integrated thedual diagnosis programUVMC had at that time. Thisintegration involved hiringsix people from UVMC, whobrought their caseload withthem. Before the integration,the council had about 600-700clients. The integration addedapproximately 300, and today,the council has between

1,000-1,100 clients who comefor service every year.Then in 2011, the council

started a crisis program, andhired almost two dozen part-time staff, which also con-tributed to the growth.

TTrreeaattiinngg wwiitthh ddiiggnniittyyThe council tries to treat

people well and tries to movethem toward positivechanges, Grim said.“Addiction affects every

aspect of a person’s life whohas it,” he said. “I want themto feel like they were treatedwell.”People who need treat-

ment can call the council andset up an appointment. Fromthere, they proceed to anassessment. The assessmentallows for the council to beable to tell whether the clientneeds the type of services thecouncil offers, Grimexplained. After that, if theyneed the services offered,they will be diagnosed andassessed and a plan will bemade for their treatment.“We want to be available

to anybody in the communitywho is being affected by sub-stance abuse issues,” Grimsaid. “We always try to treatpeople with the dignity andrespect they deserve.”Domina Matthews-Page, a

therapist at MCRC, said shethinks treating people withdignity is what makes MCRCunique.“We see each person as a

person,” she said. “What’simportant is the fact that wewant people to be in the com-munity and not institutional-ized. We want people to beaccepted.”Through being a client of

MCRC, Hereford has receivedone-on-one counseling andgroup counseling in awomen’s group. She nowhelps the group raise moneythrough events, which helpswomen pay for utilities, cloth-ing, medicine and otherthings they need.“They ended up helping

me with a lot more [thanwhat I went there for],”Hereford said. “When I wentto MCRC there was nothingout there … I went there toget help to get through it.”Hereford went to the coun-

cil on her own, but clients arealso referred to MCRC by thecourt and other services,Grim said. Hereford said shechose to go to MCRC becauseit offered a lower cost.“I just went through the

phone book because I was try-ing to find a place that wouldhelp people get over addic-

tion,” Hereford said. “I calledseveral places and MCRC wasthe only place that would takeme in immediately and onlycharge me $10 to start.”

Where the money comesfromMCRC is funded primarily

through a federal block grantgiven to the state of Ohio,then administered by region,according to Grim. However, italso gets money from the Tri-County Board of Recovery andMental Health Services, dona-tions and outside contracts.The public funding it getsallows the council to chargeclients based on a sliding feescale, Grim said.The council also raises

money through its annualRun for Recovery. Communitymembers can volunteer to bea part of or help out with therun, which takes place thisyear July 6. To get involved,contact the council or go towww.speedy-feet.com, whichpartners with the council forthe run. MCRC also uses vol-unteers for some of its preven-tion work, which involvesgoing to elementary throughhigh schools and providinginformation and resources tostudents, Grim said. He addedthat while the council itselfsometimes has volunteers,that number is kept low toprovide anonymity for clients.For more information on

volunteering, contact Grim at(937) 335-4543.

Future visionAs for the future of MCRC,

Grim said there is movementtoward integrated behavioralhealth care.“[We’re] interested in try-

ing to see if MCRC can part-ner with local physical healthentities,” Grim said. “I thinkit’s intervening and detectingat the early stages. I thinkthat’s win-win all around.”For Hereford, being a

client at the council hastaught her a lot about sub-stance abuse and addiction,and given her someone to talkto when she needs help.“That helps a lot, to have

someone you can confide inand really help you throughstuff,” Hereford said.“[Domina] has pulled me outof a dark area it felt like I wasstuck in and was able to comeback with God in my lifeagain. That’s the best presentanyone can give a person, Ithink.”Those who need treatment

or know someone who doescan contact the council at(937) 335-4543. It is locatedat 1059 N. Main St. in Troy.For more information, visitwww.mcrcinc.org.

Asteroid Facts

The Asteroid Belt

Asteroids are small, rocky bodiesthat have been left over from the forma-tion of the planets 4.5 billion years ago.They are often known as “minor plan-ets.”

There are thought to be billions ofthese chunks of rock. Most of them liein a doughnut-shaped “main belt“between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.On the inner edge of this main belt,asteroids take about three years to orbitthe sun. Those near the outer limit ofthe main belt take twice as long.

The word “asteroid“ means “star-like,“ They were given this namebecause they can only be seen aspoints of light in most telescopes. Bythe early 20th century, astronomerswere calling them the “vermin of theskies.“ They were visible in such largenumbers that they were spoiling photo-graphs of distant galaxies and nebulas.

The largest of the asteroids, Ceres,was the first to be discovered. It wasfound by Giuseppi Piazzi from Palermo,Sicily, on Jan. 1, 1801.

A second minor planet – Pallas –was found by Wilhelm Olbers in 1802.

This was followed by Juno (1804) andVesta (1807). Since 1847, not a year

has passed without the discovery of atleast one asteroid.

Asteroids

Asteroid 243 Ida and its newlydiscovered moon, Dactyl

Asteroids come in many shapesand sizes

• Asteroids are small solar system bodiesthat orbit the Sun. Made of rock and metal,they also can contain organic compounds(some scientists suggest that asteroidscould have brought they necessary chemi-cals to start life on Earth).

• Asteroids are similar to comets but do nothave a visible coma (fuzzy outline and tail)like comets do.

• Asteroids also are known as planetoids orminor planets.

• Asteroids vary greatly in size, some fea-ture diameters as small as ten meters whileothers stretch out over hundreds of kilome-ters. Note that objects under 10 meters indiameter are generally regarded as mete-oroids.

• The first asteroid was discovered in 1801by Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi.Named Ceres, it features a diameter of

around 950 kilometers and is now regardedas a dwarf planet. Ceres was given dwarfplanet status in 2006, along with Pluto, Eris,Makemake and Haumea.

• The asteroid belt lies roughly between theorbits of Mars and Jupiter in the solar sys-tem. It is home to a large amount of irregu-lar shaped asteroids that range in size fromdust through to the dwarf planet Ceres.

• The technology used for discovering aster-oids has improved dramatically since origi-nal discoveries and astronomers now haveaccess to a range of powerful telescopes toaid in their research and discoveries.

• It is believed by many scientists andresearchers that an asteroid impact was thecause behind the extinction of the dinosaursaround 65 million years ago.

• The possibility of an asteroid colliding withEarth has received increased attention over

recent years. The Shoemaker-Levy cometthat collided with Jupiter in 1994 were givenwidespread media coverage and Hollywoodalso played its part with moves such asDeep Impact (1998) and Armageddon(1998).While these movies sometimes fea-tured dubious science, they certainlyincreased public awareness of the topic.

• There now are many groups and organiza-tions that use automated systems to discov-er near Earth asteroids.While many are dis-covered, they rarely have the potential tocross paths with Earth.

• There have been many ideas suggestedas ways to avoid the unlikely but potentiallydevastating impact of an asteroid collisionwith Earth, these include using nuclearexplosions to break the asteroid into smallerpieces or other weapons to deflect it offcourse.

Asteroids are rocky or metallic objects, most of which orbit the sun in theasteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. A few asteroids approach the sun.

Columbus (Ga.) Ledger-Enquirer on Margaret

Thatcher’s legacy:Any modern history that

does not include MargaretHilda Roberts Thatcher amongthe most important world lead-ers of the 20th century instant-ly sacrifices any claim to credi-bility.Former British Prime

Minister Thatcher, who diedMonday at 87, all but remadethe United Kingdom of the1980s in her own ladylike yetunyielding image, much as herfriend and ally Ronald Reaganremade the United States inhis.In many ways, Reagan and

Thatcher were and are thebookends of late 20th centuryWestern conservatism.Although Thatcher lackedReagan’s seemingly effortlessamiability, she was every bit

his match in resolve. The “IronLady” label came courtesy ofSoviet journalists, and wouldsoon become a term of admira-tion and, to some, endearment.Like Reagan, she came to

power at a time when Britainwas suffering from crises ofboth economics and nationalconfidence, and saw bloatedgovernment as the heart of theproblem.Her administration’s priva-

tizing of state-run industrieswould hardly seem radical tomost Americans: Among thegovernment-operated institu-tions at the time were BritishAirways, Rolls-Royce, the coaland steel industries, a telecomcompany, gas, water and elec-trical utilities.Supporters credited her

with an economic revival; crit-ics accused her of insensitivityto the wretchedly poor and of

further widening England’shistorically yawning social andeconomic chasms. But her con-victions were unshakable.Thatcher is said, by foes and

admirers alike, to have had anabsolute confidence in her ownrightness.It was a trait that some-

times worked to her and hercountry’s advantage, as whenshe astutely saw in Sovietleader Mikhail Gorbachev apossible end to the Cold War;and sometimes to her detri-ment, as when she imposed ahugely unpopular tax in 1989and was eventually ousted byher own party.Thatcher was described as

“a very divisive figure” by noneother than Bernard Ingham,her own loyal press secretary.He also described her as “apatriot with a great love forthis country.”

DOONESBURY

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s call for Congressto slow the rise in Social Security benefits is causing consternationinside both political parties, an inauspicious start for a recommendationthe White House says should foster a bipartisan deal to reduce deficits.“I made a promise to the people of Rhode Island that I would always

oppose cuts to Social Security, and I’m going to keep that promise,” saidSen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a Democrat so politically secure that he wonre-election last fall by a margin of nearly 2-1 over his rival. The propos-al “is nothing more than a benefit cut disguised behind technical jar-gon,” he added in a written statement that called the plan by its budget-geek name of “chained CPI.”.Democratic Rep. Louise Slaughter, a 14th-term lawmaker from the

Rochester, N.Y., region, went one step further. “I urge the president toremove chained CPI, along with the Medicare cuts, from his budgetbecause these crucial benefits have no place as a bargaining chip in adeficit reduction deal,” she said.Republicans, too, have been conflicted, curiously enough, in a way

that only adds to Obama’s difficulties with his customary Democraticallies.Rep. Greg Walden of Oregon, in charge of the GOP campaign to keep

control of the House in 2014, accused the president of “trying to balancethis budget on the backs of seniors.” The assessment was jarringly atodds with the desire of many Republicans to wring savings from govern-ment benefit programs, and their support for the sort of change Obamais now publicly backing.In short order, House Speaker John Boehner made plain his dis-

agreement with Walden, and sought to reframe the issue to make itsound like Obama was grudgingly moving toward Republicans on theissue.The president has recommended “modest reforms,” he told reporters,

adding they were “the least we must do to begin to solve the problems ofSocial Security.”Walden got a different sort of slap from the Club for Growth, which

spent millions in 2012 trying to help conservatives win election toCongress. The group quickly labeled the Oregon lawmaker a RINORepublican in name only and added him to its list of GOP incumbentswho deserve a primary challenge from the right in next year’s elections.Older Americans tend to vote in disproportionately large numbers in

non-residential elections, and given Walden’s position as head strategistfor Republican candidates in 2014, Democrats quickly imagined hemight seek to turn Obama’s proposal against them in television ads andcampaign mailings in 18 months’ time.The White House rebutted. “The inclusion of entitlement reform,

specifically chained CPI ... comes at the specific behest and request ofRepublican leaders,” White House press secretary Jay Carney said onThursday. Without mentioning Walden by name, he referred to his com-ments as cynical and “flagrantly ridiculous.”Sharp rhetoric, for sure.But unlikely to satisfy Democratic lawmakers being pressured by the

White House to vote for a change that many are inclined to oppose inthe first place, and Obama will need all the support he can get from hisown party if he hopes for a deal.That’s because Republicans are less than eager to take the presi-

dent’s proposal on the terms he laid out on Wednesday. He called hisown recommendation “less than optimal” and said he would insist thatRepublicans simultaneously agree to raise taxes on the wealthy andsome businesses. “When it comes to deficit reduction, I’ve already metRepublicans more than halfway,” he added.

Her motto could have been,“Don’t cry over spilt orangejuice.” Designer Lilly Pulitzernot only didn’t cry, she madelots of money camouflaging thatjuice.She was born with a silver

spoon in her mouth. After shemarried the grandson of JosephPulitzer, that spoon was oftenfilled with orange juice.Grandson Pulitzer ownedorange groves, see? You wouldthink someone with the lastname of Pulitzer would have aleg up in the journalism busi-ness, but Peter Pulitzer optedfor fruit trees. Since there wasso much orange juice lyingaround, Lilly decided to open ajuice stand where she regularlyspilled her product on her dress.Her idea was to design fabricsthat would not show juicestains.Right now, dozens of people

are slapping their foreheads, notbecause they could have hadsome other kind of juice, butbecause they did not come upwith this wonderfully simpleidea. Those simple ideas arealways the best. Bill Gates’sidea was to invent the computer

operating system that 90 per-cent of computers use. WarrenBuffet’s idea was to pick nothingbut winners in the stock market.J.D. Rockefeller’s idea was tocontrol every drop of oil in thecountry. Lilly Pulitzer’s ideawas to cut down on laundry.The orange print would, of

course, hide orange juice stains.The yellow print would cover uplemon juice stains. The greenprint would not show the stainsleft from limes or from fallinginto a pile of the millions of dol-lars these prints earned her.I had never heard of Lilly

Pulitzer until I read that shedied last week. Her obituarydetailed the background of herbusiness start-up.I don’t own an orange tree

grove and I don’t run a juicestand. I don’t know the Pulitzersand apparently neither they northeir prize have ever heard ofme. But I know a good ideawhen I read about one. What if,I wondered, I could tweak Lilly’sidea to suit my own lifestyle?My life revolves around

rebuilding and flying old air-planes, keeping a three-acrelawn from reverting to jungle,and writing.I also, when driven to it by

hunger, cook.My first thought was to

design a fabric that wouldobscure oil stains. Everybodywho works around machinery ismarked with the stain of 10W30on their clothes and a personcan pour only so muchOxyClean into the wash cycle. Iam either messier than most orclumsier than most, becausewhen I work around engines Iend up with a lot of oil on myclothes. In my defense, many ofthese engines are very dirty.Also in my defense, I can be aklutz. Neither me nor my teeshirts are ever going to rust.To address the lawn issue, I

would design clothes that cover

up grass stains. And dirt stains.And stepped-on bugs-including-those-giant-crunchy-spiderstains. And would also kill poi-son ivy. These clothes wouldmake an ideal ensemble forpulling weeds and pottingplants. If I have to say so myself,inventing a fabric that wouldprevent poison ivy is borderlinegenius.The writing isn’t too messy

until the ink cartridge on theprinter goes wackadoodle andhas to be handled. At that point,a person doesn’t need ink-cam-ouflage clothes as much as sheneeds a hazmat suit.As for the cooking, if the

chicken ends up with more flouron it than I and the floor do, it’sconsidered a successful meal.My husband calls that cookingwith a vengeance. But he eats it.A lot of the aforementioned

messes could be averted if a per-son wore, you know, an apron.I’d like to ask Lilly why she did-n’t do just that. But she diedlast week.

• Dr. Hilary KoprowskiPHILADELPHIA — Dr. Hilary

Koprowski, a pioneering virologist whodeveloped the first successful oral vac-

cination for polio, has died. He was 96.Although not as well-known as fellow

researchers Jonas Salk and AlbertSabin, Koprowski in 1950 became thefirst to show it was possible to vacci-nate against polio, the crippling andsometimes fatal disease that’s now allbut eradicated.Koprowski’s son, Christopher, said

Saturday that his father liked the sci-entific recognition his work receivedwithout the celebrity of Salk andSabin.“He enjoyed not having his scientific

work disrupted,” said ChristopherKoprowski, chief of radiation oncologyat Christiana Care Health System inWilmington, Del. “Not that he was amodest individual, mind you.”Christopher Koprowski said his father

had been sick for several monthsbefore dying Thursday in the sameWynnewood home he’d lived in since1957.Hilary Koprowski self-administered

the live-virus oral vaccine he devel-oped before the 1950 clinical trialabout two years before Salk’sinjectable version using a dead form ofthe virus began testing with the back-ing of the National Foundation forInfantile Paralysis, now the March ofDimes.Sabin, who Koprowski’s son said

sometimes collaborated with hisfather, was the first to get the moreeffective oral version, which didn’trequire boosters, licensed for use inthe U.S.Koprowski went on to be the director

of The Wistar Institute in Philadelphiafrom 1957 to 1991.Under his leadership, the independ-

ent research institution developed arubella vaccine that helped eradicatethe disease in much of the world,Wistar officials said.It was during that time the institute

also developed a more effective rabiesvaccine.A talented musician, the Poland-born

Koprowski was a penniless immigrantin Rio de Janeiro making moneyteaching piano before hooking up witha lab there and eventually moving tothe United States, his son said.“He was a great dad. He was color-

ful, charismatic,” ChristopherKoprowski said. “He’s still the mostbrilliant person I’ve ever met.”

Dear Readers: Here is thisweek’s Sound Off, about peoplespreading germs:“Since we had such a bad flu

season, I have a huge pet peeve.Some people have a habit of lick-ing their fingers to open plasticbags, turn pages on a book or leafthrough pages of paper. I know forsome it’s been a lifelong habit, butthey must realize that they arespreading germs and diseasewhen they do so. Make them stop!— Maria from New Jersey”Maria, I’m with you! This is a

disgusting and unhealthy habitfor many reasons. Folks, pleasestop and think for a second.Worse? When someone licks athumb to count money, then

hands it to you! I don’t want tothink how many people have donethe same with that bill! —Heloise

FAST FACTSDear Readers: Other uses for

cleaned-out candle jars:• Store screws, nails, etc.• Keep by the dryer to collect

things left in pockets.

• Collect change in one.• Use to keep extra buttons for

clothing.• Make a “love jar” with little

notes for your loved one.— HeloiseFIXTURE POLISHDear Heloise: My chrome

bathroom fixtures have a lot ofhard-water buildup on them fromsoap and dirt. Do you have aneasy way to get them clean and“polished”-looking again? —Shelly in New YorkSure do, Shelly! I have an easy

hint that uses my favorite house-hold product — vinegar! Usingundiluted vinegar and amicrofiber cloth, wipe the bath-room fixtures and let the vinegar

sit for a minute or two, rub withthe cloth and then rinse withwater. If you have really hard-to-remove water stains, take a tis-sue, cover the area, then dampenwith vinegar. Let it sit for a while.Then use a scrub brush, rinse anddry. Vinegar is a great product tohave handy. For more of myfavorite vinegar hints, order mypamphlet Heloise’s FantabulousVinegar Hints and More. Send $5with a long, self-addressed,stamped (66 cents) envelope to:Heloise/Vinegar, P.O.

SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

Dear Annie: I have beenfriends with "Missy" for a long time.She hates her husband's sister andhasn't allowed them to speak toeach other for years. The sister isnot allowed to come anywhere nearMissy's house. Last year, things gotworse.Missy has five grown children.

Four of them remain in touch with"Aunt Martha." As a result, threemonths ago, Missy sent them let-ters stating she was no longer goingto be a mother, grandmother orgreat-grandmother to their families.For some reason, she is still close tothe fifth child, even though that onealso talks to Aunt Martha.This makes me so sad. I attended

her granddaughter's bridal shower,and Missy wasn't there. The grand-daughter's wedding is next month.Missy and her husband are the onlygrandparents this child has, andthey won't attend.I don't care if Missy dislikes her

sister-in-law, but I cannot fathomhow she can take it out on hergrandchildren. I think she needsprofessional help. She is missingout on so much. She has taken herhusband's family away from him,and he won't stand up to her. Theyaren't young anymore, and I wouldhate for something to happen tothem without this getting resolved.I feel terrible about this situation

and don't know whether there isanything I can do. I'm afraid if I sayanything, I will lose her friendship.— Feeling Helpless

Dear Helpless: You are rightthat Missy could use professionalhelp. She is drowning in bitternessand anger and taking it out oneveryone around her instead ofdealing with her issues. We also feelsorry for her spineless husband,who should have stood up to hiswife long ago and now risks losingeveryone he loves.There's not much you can do to

remedy this. You could gently askMissy whether it's worth losing herchildren and grandchildren. ShouldMissy bemoan her relationships toyou, first recommend that she talkto her doctor (sometimes theseextreme personality issues are dueto medical problems), and then sug-gest that she and the kids gotogether for family counseling.

Dear Annie: You sometimesprint readers' pet peeves. Here'smine:I cringe every time I hear

"Waddya got," "I don't got," "I got"and so forth. Whatever happened tothe words "going" and "have"?It's one thing to hear "ain't" and

"ain't got" all the time in popularsongs. But it really kills me to hearTV professionals speaking improp-erly. Have we become so lazy thateverything we hear is acceptable?— Albany, N.Y.

Dear Albany: Language, partic-ularly English, is a fluid entity. Itchanges over time.Words once con-sidered slang become standard.Made-up words enter the lexicon.Some of these adaptations are ben-eficial. Others, not so much. Onewould hope that professional broad-casters would be more circumspectabout proper language, but toomany people, including profession-als and those who write for them,are unaware of exactly what thatmeans. What isn't taught and rein-forced, in school and in life,becomes forgotten.

Dear Annie: This is for"Heartbroken in Florida": Mycondolences on the loss of your hus-band to the devastating disease ofalcoholism.Please know there is hope for a

serene and happy life regardless ofyour current circumstances.Consider attending at least six Al-Anon meetings, a support group forfamily members and friends wholive or have lived with alcoholabuse. I did this years ago.You can contact Al-Anon at al-

anon.org or through their toll-freenumber for group meeting informa-tion at 1-888-4Al-Anon (1-888-425-2666).— Extremely Grateful inWisconsin

Dear Grateful: Thank you forthe useful suggestion. We hope ithelps.

Wheels falling offPITTSBURGH (AP) —

Michael McKenry knows he isn’tgoing to get many curtain callsas a backup catcher.

So he savored the momentSunday when he was called outof the dugout following his sec-ond home run of the day, a drivethat tied the game as thePittsburgh Pirates overcame afive-run, seventh-inning deficitto beat the Cincinnati Reds 10-7.

“Neil Walker pushed me outof the dugout and told me to go totip my cap,” McKenry said. “Itwas special. It’s good to havegood teammates who want youto get recognized,and it’s great tohave the fans be so supportiveand cheer that hard for you. Aguy in my position, you just don’texpect it.”

McKenry got his curtain callafter his two-run drive made it 6-6 in a six-run eighth inningagainst Jonathan Broxton (0-1).

McKenry had the first two-homer game of his four-yearmajor league career, andStarling Marte hit a tiebreakingtwo-run drive.

Cincinnati has lost fivestraight, its longest slide sincelast Aug. 5-9. The Pirates sweptthe Reds for the first time sinceApril 16-18, 2010, in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh trailed 5-0 whenMcKenry homered off Mat Latosleading off the seventh. TravisSnider’s RBI double off the top ofthe right-field wall upheld aftera video review chased Latos,Andrew McCutchen doubled in arun against Logan Ondrusek

and pinch-hitter Gaby Sanchezhad an RBI single off MannyParra.

“The home run gave us somehope,” Snider said. “We hit someballs hard early in the game anddidn’t have anything to show forit, but then Latos started mak-ing a lot of tough pitches. Wehung with it, though, and it’s atestament to the character ofthis team.”

Latos said McKenry hit agood pitch.

“It was low and in the zone,”Latos said. “He did what he wassupposed to do, and you’ve got togive him credit.”

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — AdamScott finished the job this time,and put an end to more than ahalf-century of Australian mis-ery at the Masters.

With the two biggest putts ofhis career, Scott holed a 20-footerfor birdie on the 18th hole of reg-ulation that put him into a play-off with Angel Cabrera, and thenwon his first major champi-onship Sunday with a 12-footerfor birdie on the second extrahole.

“We like to think we’re thebest at everything. Golf is a bigsport at home, and this is the onething in golf we hadn’t been ableto achieve,” Scott said. “It’s amaz-ing that it’s my destiny to be thefirst Australian to win. It’sincredible.”

Scott leaned back and thrusthis arms in the air after the puttdropped on the 10th hole, a cele-bration for all of Australia andpersonal redemption for himself.

It was only last summer whenScott threw away the BritishOpen by making bogey on hislast four holes to lose by one shotto Ernie Els. The 32-year-oldhandled that crushing defeatwith dignity and pledged to fin-ish stronger given anotherchance. “Next time I’m sure therewill be a next time I can do a bet-ter job of it,” he said that day.

Scott was close to perfect, andhe had to be with Cabrera deliv-ering some brilliance of his own.

Moments after Scott made his20-foot birdie putt on the 18thhole for a 3-under 69 to take aone-shot lead “C’mon, Aussie!” hescreamed Cabrera answeredwith an approach that ploppeddown 3 feet from the cup, one ofthe greatest shots under the cir-cumstances. That gave him aneasy birdie and a 2-under 70.They finished at 9-under 279.

They both chipped close forpar on the 18th in the first play-off hole, and Cabrera’s 15-footbirdie putt on the 10th grazedthe right side of the cup.

Wharton picks StanfordBY COLIN FOSTER

Sports [email protected]

Tippecanoe’s Sam Whartonis known for running long dis-tances in a short time.

It’s unlikely, however, thathe could get to Stanford in hisrecord-fast time of 14:56 thathe posted at the FootlockerMidwest Meet this year.

Wharton recentlyannounced he will continuehis running and academiccareer as a Stanford Cardinal.

The senior will run indoorand outdoor track, along with

cross country — the sport heexcelled in during the fallwhere he won the firstDivision I state title of hiscareer. He had narrowed hislist of schools down toColorado, Wisconsin, Stanfordand Ohio State. But in hismind, the environment inNorthern California was tootempting to pass up.

“It’s a little less rainy, a lit-tle less warm, it’s a differentenvironment. It’s about a 40-minute drive from SanFrancisco,” Wharton said.

“That area just kind of has theperfect balance of everything.It has nice weather, the finan-cial aid worked out (and) Ithink it had the collectivepackage.

“I knew in my gut I wantedto go to Stanford. I just want-ed to weigh my options.”

Before he arrives inCalifornia, however, he hasone last hurdle to climb: win-ning a state title in track.

14-year-old Guan amazes at MastersBY JOELWALKER

For the Troy Daily News

AUGUSTA—The late DixieRutherford, longtime pro atMiami Shores Golf Club in Troy,always used to say golf was agame for adults.

He might have changed hismind if he had lived long enoughto see a 14-year-old not only playin the Masters but play well

enough to make the cut.China’s Tianlang Guan had

the golf world buzzing here thisweek. The only amateur to makethe cut, the 14-year-old eighthgrader shot 73-75-77-76.

He got in the field by winningthe Asia-Pacific AmateurChampionship in November,becoming the youngest player in

Masters history. Specifically, hewas 14 years, 5 months, 17 daysold when play began onThursday

“It’s amazing, ” said formerMasters champion Gary Player.“I thought he might shoot 83, 84,something like that.”

When golf agent ChubbyChandler, whose No. 1 client isLee Westwood, was asked aboutGuan, he just smiled and pointed

to his head.Guan was paired with two-

time winner Ben Crenshaw inthe first two rounds and receivedsome simple advice from Ben.

“Mr. Ben Crenshaw just toldme to play my own game andhave fun,” Guan said.

He even survived a penaltyshot, the first for slow play inMasters history.

Signingsa personal best time of9:01.24.Wharton, however, isn’t

the only Tipp runner thatwill take his talents to thenext level.Grant Koch will be run-

ning at the Division I col-lege level for the NotreDame Fighting Irish.“This fall, I got a

recruitment letter fromNotre Dame for track,”Koch explained. “I waskind of looking at colleges,but I was just in prelimi-nary stages at that point.

When I got that letter, thatnarrowed it down quickly,because I wanted to go toNotre Dame.“In the middle of

November, I took officialvisit there. I knew that itwas going to be college forme. I had looked at UD(Dayton) and Ohio State. Ihad been around thoseplaces before. Some of mybrothers and sisters wentthere. I went to NotreDame and I loved it. Theysaid they had a spot forme. By early December, Ihad made my decision.”

Koch said he expects tobe in a reserve role on thecross country team for thefirst few years in SouthBend, while he focusesmainly on track.At the Division I state

cross country meet thisyear, Koch placed 57th in atime of 16:13. He finishedsixth at the state trackmeet last season in the 800with a time of 1:55.25.For now, though, the

seniors will enjoy one finaltrack season together.“Grant is looking to

make it back to state.

Ricky (Andrews) has beeninjured for about a yearand he’s put in some reallygood work with us. Healmost qualified out of dis-trict last year,” Whartonsaid. “I think he will moveout past district (this year)and have a good shot atstate.“For myself, I think it

would be nice to go winanother title,” he contin-ued. “It would be nice toget a state title in track,just to cement my legacyas one of the better run-ners at Tipp.”

do that kind of damageagainst pitchers Latos andBroxton,” McKenry said.“They’re very good pitch-ers, and Latos has beenparticularly tough on us. Ididn’t know if we’d get tohim the way he was pitch-ing.”Pitcher Jonathan

gle.Pittsburgh’s three

homers doubled its totalthis season. The Pirateshave 32 runs during a 5-1spurt after scoring eight ina 1-5 start.The two homers and six

runs allowed tied careerhighs for Broxton, a nine-year veteran. Reds manag-er Dusty Baker attributedBroxton’s struggles torustiness as he had notpitched in a week.“He warmed up three

times yesterday just to tryto stay sharp,” Baker said.“We need to get him somework.We need to start get-ting some more leads so wecan get him in there moreoften.”Walker had three hits

NotebookThe official statement:

“Tianlang Guan wasassessd a one-shot penaltyfor violation of Rule 6-7 ofthe Rules of Golf and theTournament Pace of Playpolicy. His group wasdeemed out of position onNo. 10. Guan began beingtimed on 12 and receivedhis first warning on 13. Hewas penalized following hissecond shot on 17 when heagain exceeded the 40 sec-ond time limit by a widemargin.”Crenshaw and others

felt the penalty was a littleover the top, considering itwas the first in 77 years.“I wish they would have

made an example out ofsomeone other than a 14-year-old kid,” said BrandtSnedeker.The penalty didn’t seem

to bother Guan. He got upand down for par from agreenside bunker on the18th to make the cut on thenumber.“I respect the decision

they make. I will work onplaying faster.”A couple of stats that

were impressive … Guandidn’t have a double bogeyin 72 holes and didn’t havea three putt.“I think the first couple

of rounds I play prettygood,” he said.“I feel a little tired today

There’s still a lot of thingsto improve. My short gameis good, and my driverneeds to be longer.”Guan played the final

round with former winnerhere Sandy Lyle.And he was impressed.“He hits the ball a rea-

sonable distance and inanother three years you’llsee a huge difference in hislength,” Lyle said. “Hisshort game is very good,,and that’s a nice thing tohave.”He’s not sure what his

schedule is for the rest ofthe year, but he’s likely toreceive some sponsorexemptions. He’s exemptinto the final qualifyingstage for the British Open.What about turning pro?“It won’t be too early,” he

said. “There’s still a lot ofthings to learn, to improve.So, nothing to rush.”

MastersWith his long putter

anchored against his chest,Scott’s putt was true all theway. The Masters had beenthe only major that neverhad a champion use a longputter. Scott’s win meansfour of the last six majorchampions used a putterpressed against their bellyor chest, a stroke that mightbe banned in 2016.What mattered more to

Scott was that the Mastershad been the only major anAustralian had never won.He was among dozens ofgolfers who routinely rose inthe early hours of Mondaymorning for the telecast,only to watch a horror show.The leading character wasGreg Norman, who had fourgood chances to win, nonebetter than when he blew asix-shot lead on the last dayto Nick Faldo in 1996.There was Jim Ferrier in

1952 and Bruce Crampton20 years later. Scott andJason Day tied for secondjust two years ago. Norman,though, was the face ofAussie failures at theMasters, and Scott paid himtribute in Butler Cabinbefore he slipped on thatbeautiful green jacket.“Australian is a proud

sporting nation, and this isone notch in the belt wenever got,” Scott said. “It’samazing that it came downto me today. But there’s oneguy who inspired a nation ofgolfers, and that’s GregNorman. He’s been incredi-ble to me and all the greatgolfers. Part of this belongsto him.”Scott was just as gra-

cious in victory as he waslast summer at RoyalLytham & St. Annes. Heand Cabrera flashed athumbs-up to each otherafter their shots into the10th hole in the playoff, andthey walked off the 10thgreen with their armsaround each other when itwas over.“Such is golf,” Cabrera

said. “Adam is a good win-ner.”It was a riveting conclu-

sion to a week filled withsome awkward moments.There was the one-shotpenalty called against 14-

year-old Guan Tianlangthat nearly kept theChinese teen from becomingthe youngest player tomakethe cut. There was the ille-gal drop by Tiger Woods,who was given a two-shotpenalty over questions andconfusion about why he wasnot disqualified for signingan incorrect card.And at the end, there

was shot-making at itsfinest.Scott didn’t make a

bogey after the first hole,and he really didn’t miss ashot the rest of the day on arainy Sunday at Augusta.He just couldn’t get a putt tofall until it really mattered.Then, he made two of them.Day closed with a 70, his

second close call at theMasters in three years. Thisone hurt far more becausehe had a two-shot leadwhen he stepped to the 16thtee.He ran off three bold

birdies down the stretchgetting up-and-down fromthe back bunker on the13th, a 10-foot putt on the14th, and capitalizing on abreak at No. 15 when hisdrive ricocheted out of thetrees into the fairways,allowing him to reach thegreen in two.His lead vanished just as

quickly, however. Day choseto hit putter from behindthe 16th green, came up 5feet short and missed thepar putt. He hit into abunker on the 17th foranother bogey.“I think the pressure got

to me a little bit,” Day said.The tournament unfold-

ed behind him, and itturned out to be quite ashow.Scott hit the ball beauti-

fully the entire day andwatched one putt afteranother turn away from thehole. But he also receivedperhaps the biggest break ofthe tournament when hisshot into the par-5 13thspun back off the green andwas headed down the slopeinto the tributary of Rae’sCreek when it suddenlystopped, a blessing from aday spent in the rain.He gotup-and-down for birdie, andhe two-putted for birdie onthe 15th.

White Sox top TribeCLEVELAND (AP) —

Sunday began on a highnote for Michael Bournand the Cleveland Indians.The day ended with a 3-

1 loss to the Chicago WhiteSox that could affect theteam beyond one game.Bourn, who homered on

White Sox starter JakePeavy’s first pitch toaccount for Cleveland’sonly run, could miss sever-al games after receivingfive stitches to close a lac-eration on his right indexfinger.Bourn was injured in

the eighth inning when hishand was stepped on bypitcher Matt Thorntonwhile making a headfirstslide into first base. Hehad hit a slow grounderthat was fielded by firstbaseman Adam Dunn, whotossed to Thornton. He wassafe, but remained on oneknee for a few momentsand was examined by man-ager Terry Francona and atrainer before beingremoved.The outfielder, who

heal,” he said. “No liga-ments were messed up. Nojoints were messed up. Iknew something waswrong. I felt pain when Igot up. I’ll probably be in alittle pain for the next dayor two, but other than thatI should be fine.”Bourn said he doubted

he’d play Tuesday whenthe Indians open a three-game series with Boston atProgressive Field. He has-n’t been given a timetableby the team’s medical staffon when he will return.“We’ll see how long it

takes,” he said. “It should-n’t take too long from what(the doctor) said. I’ll justtake it day by day. Youcan’t tell right nowbecause it’s real fresh.”Bourn said he had a

similar injury earlier in hiscareer, which also occurredwhen he dove headfirsttrying to beat out a groundball.“I was just trying to get

to the bag before he did,”Bourn said.Bourn, who went 3-for-4

on Sunday, is batting .333in 10 games. His home runwas a line drive that land-ed in Chicago’s bullpen,but it might have served tofire up Peavy, who struckout 11 in seven inningsand retired 12 straight atone point.“I got him going after I

hit the bomb,” Bourn said.“He was tough on us.”Francona gave full cred-

it to Peavy, who improvedto 4-0 in five career startsagainst Cleveland.“Bournie kind of

ambushed him the firstpitch of the game, but afterthat we didn’t have manyopportunities to score untillate,” Francona said. “He’sjust a really good veteranpitcher.”

Indians starter BrettMyers turned in his bestouting of the young season.The right-hander took afour-hit shutout into thesixth, but Paul Konerko’stwo-run homer gaveChicago the lead for goodas the White Sox broke afive-game losing streakand won for the first timeon the road this season.Myers allowed 14

earned runs, includingseven homers, in 10 1-3innings in his first twoappearances, but held theWhite Sox to four hitsthrough five.“I’m really encouraged,”

he said. “I felt comfortable.I was able to get the balldown. One pitch cost me.”After Jeff Keppinger

reached on third basemanLonnie Chisenhall’s errorto begin the sixth, AlexRios bounced into a doubleplay. Dunn walked andKonerko hit a 3-1 pitchinto the bleachers.The home run was the

second of the season forKonerko, who has hit 30 ormore home runs seventimes in his career.“I feel like I’m climbing

a little bit,” he said. “I feelbetter. I wouldn’t say I’mclicking on all cylinders,but just trying to grindthrough here.”Konerko has 16 career

home runs and 75 RBIs atProgressive Field. He leadsactive players with 47homers and 173 RBIsagainst the Indians.

Keselowski mad at NASCAR

FORT WORTH, Texas(AP) — Brad Keselowskihad plenty of good thingsto say about his team forall it overcame for anoth-er top-10 finish.

As for his feelingsabout NASCAR, thedefending Sprint Cupchampion is pretty angrythese days.

“The things I’ve seenover the last seven dayshave me questioningeverything that I believein, and I’m not happyabout it,” Keselowski saidin the garage area afterSaturday night’s race atTexas.

Before the race thatKyle Busch won to com-plete a weekend sweep,NASCAR confiscated theoriginal rear-end housingfrom Keselowski’s No. 2Ford and the No. 22 ofJoey Logano, his PenskeRacing teammate. Thatcould lead to penalties,including possibly sus-pensions, the loss ofchampionship points andfines.

Logano was late to thestarting grid because ofthe additional inspectionsafter changes, and he hadto start at the back of thefield. He charged to afifth-place finish, fourspots ahead ofKeselowski, who kept hisstarting spot of 16th.

“I have one good thingto say, and that was myteam and the effort theyput in today, in fightingback with the absolute(expletive) that’s been thelast seven days in thisgarage area,” Keselowskisaid.

Keselowski, who hassix top-10 finishes and issecond in season pointsbehind Jimmie Johnson,

got a penalty a week ear-lier at Martinsville forpitting outside his stall.He still disputes that.

“There’s so much stuffgoing on. You guys haveno idea … what’s goingon,” Keselowski said. “Icould tell you there isnobody, no team in thisgarage with the integrityof the 2 team. And theway we’ve been treatedover the last seven days isabsolutely shameful.

“I feel like we’ve beentargeted over the lastseven days more than I’veever seen a team target-ed,” he said. “But my guys,they kept their heads onstraight and they show-

cased why they are a win-ning team and a champi-onship team. We’re notgoing to take it. We’re notgoing to be treated thisway.”

NASCAR had noimmediate response toKeselowski’s comments.

Keselowski met withNASCAR chairman BrianFrance before theDaytona 500 after alengthy profile piece inUSA Today in which thedriver made wide-rangingand sometimes criticalcomments about thedirection of the sport.

After the Texas race,Keselowski said there isso much stuff going on

now that he could “make alist two pages long.”

Busch completed hisNASCAR record seventhCup-Nationwide weekendsweep, and second thisseason, with his Texastwo-step at the 1 1/2-mile,high-banked track.

After winning theNationwide race the pre-vious night, Busch startedfrom the pole Saturdayand led 171 of 334 laps. Itwas his 26th career Cupvictory, first at Texas,where he became the firstdriver to win in each ofNASCAR’s top threeseries also with sixNationwide wins and twoin trucks there.

Busch regained thelead from Martin TruexJr. during the last cau-tion. After a strongrestart with 16 laps to go,Busch stayed in front andwon by a half-second withan average speed of144.751 mph. He creditedhis No. 18 Joe GibbsRacing Toyota crew forthe victory in his 300thcareer start.

“They won me the racegetting me off pit roadfirst, being able to dictatethe restart and just run ahard pace there,” saidBusch, who was laterasked if he would havebeen able to catch Truexwithout that final caution,and if he would have thenbeen able to get aroundhim.

“That’s a lot of ifs, andunfortunately, I don’treally have an answer foryou,” he said. “But I’d liketo say that we had a shotat him.”

Truex has now gone210 races since his lastCup victory in June 2007,a span in which he hasfinished second six times.

His Michael WaltripRacing Toyota led 142laps at Texas after notbeing in front any of thefirst six races this season.NASCAR discovered aproblem afterward, sayingthat the No. 56 was toolow in the front. The sanc-tioning body said theissue would be looked atfurther and addressed inthe next few days.

“Finishing second isgood. I’m not saying that’snot the case. It’s justwhen you’ve been so closeto winning so many timessince your last one, it real-ly sucks to run that goodand finish second,” saidTruex, who did move from25th to 16th in seasonpoints. “Circumstances,the way they play outsometimes, they go thatway. … Second is a greataccomplishment, but it’snot what we’re here for.”

Perfectweatherexpectedat BostonMarathon

BOSTON (AP)—The heatwas unprecedented and sowas the offer: Any of the27,000 runners in last year’sBoston Marathon could skipthe race and automaticallyqualify for the 2013 editioninstead.

About 2,300 people tookrace organizers up on thedeal.

Smart move.By re-starting their train-

ing and postponing theirplans for a year, they areexpected to be greeted withtemperatures in the mid-50stoday when the 117th BostonMarathon reaches CopleySquare.

Perfect running weathergood news not just for therunners but for organizerscoming off a year in which therecord-setting heat sentrecord numbers of runners formedical attention.

“We got a bye,” race direc-tor DaveMcGillivray said thisweek. “And that’s good,because we need this year toregroup.”

A year after perfect weath-er helped paceGeoffreyMutaito the fastest marathon inhistory, forecasts for the 2012race climbed toward 90degrees and Boston AthleticAssociation encouraged anyinexperienced or ill runners tostay home. For those thatdecided to brave swelteringpavement that reached tripledigits, extra water and doc-tors were available.

Winner Wesley Korircramped up in the final milebut moved back into firstplace when those ahead ofhim faded even faster. Hisheat-slowed time of 2 hours,12 minutes, 40 seconds wasalmost 10 minutes slowerthan Mutai’s 2:03:02.

Sharon Cherop completedtheKenyan sweep, outkickingJemima Jelagat Sumgong towin by 2 seconds in 2:31:50.The women’s winner wasdecided by a sprint downBoylston Street for the fifthconsecutive year all of themdecided by 3 seconds or less.

Both defending championsare back, leading a field thatincludes not just oneAmerican contender but twoboth on the women’s side:Olympic bronze medalistShalane Flanagan, of nearbyMarblehead, and her trainingpartner, Kara Goucher, a two-time Top 5 finisher here.

“I was a little girl, justnorth of here, and dreamed ofrunning this race. It’s surre-al,” said Flanagan, who fin-ished second in the New YorkCity Marathon in 2010 andfinished 10th at the LondonOlympics. “I expect a hardrun. I expect to die a thousanddeaths. I don’t know what toexpect.”

No U.S. runner has wonthe race since Lisa Larsen-Weidenbach took the women’stitle in 1985; the lastAmerican man to win wasGreg Meyer in 1983. JasonHartmann, who was fourthlast year, is the top Americancontender on the men’s sideafter Olympians MebKeflezighi and Ryan Hallwithdrew because of injuries.

“This needs to happen,”Goucher said. “We want anAmerican to win, period.”

Korir, a Louisville alum,can continue a remarkableyear for the Cardinals. Afterhe won last year, Louisvillefollowed that up with a victo-ry in the Sugar Bowl and themen’s basketball nationalchampionship while losing inthe finals of the women’sNCAA tournament.

Korir, who graduated in2008, said he worked on themaintenance crew in the bas-ketball team’s dorm andknew Peyton Siva. He saidwatched the men’s champi-onship game againstMichigan and drew inspira-tion from the Cardinals’ latecomeback.

“The way they are patient,the way they wait to kill thecompetition until the end ofrace, it’s very educational,”Korir said. “The winner is notthe one that starts fastest.(That is) definitely my strate-gy.”
