LOUISVILLE, Ky. Country
music legend Loretta Lynn is
three years older thanshe has led
people to believe, an age change
that undermines the story she
told of being married at 13 in
Coal Miners Daughter, docu-
ments obtained by The Associat-
ed Press show.
Lynns birth certificate on file
at the state Office of Vital Statis-
tics in Frankfort, Ky., shows that
Loretta Webb was born on April
14, 1932, in Johnson County,
Kentucky. That
makes her 80
years old, not
77. Also on file
is her marriage
license and two
affidavits from
her mother,
Clara Marie Ra-
mey, and S.W. Ward Jr., who was
not related to the family, listing
the same birthdate.
The records werent filed until
1965, which meant that Lynn
needed multiple documents to
prove her age at that time. Lynns
signature appears on the docu-
ment as Loretta Webb Lynn.
Melvin Webb lists his daugh-
ter Loretta as 7 years old for
the 1940 Census, according to a
digital copy on file at the Ken-
tucky Historical Society. Lynns
marriage license, obtained by
the AP fromthe Johnson County
clerks office lists her as 15 on
Jan. 10, 1948.
In Coal Miners Daughter,
the autobiography that became
an Academy Award-winning
film, Lynn told a different story
that she was marriedat 13 and
was a mother of four by 18. Most
books and public references to
Lynn list her current age as 77.
When contacted by the AP,
Lynns spokeswoman, Nancy
Russell of Nashville, Tenn., de-
clined comment. She said that
Lynn has told her before in no
uncertain terms, If anyone asks
how old I am, tell them its none
of their business!
Lynns younger brother, Her-
man Webb, declined to disclose
Lynns age, although he said
there might have been a mix-
up with Lynns paperwork after
she movedto Nashville to launch
her country career. Her parents
and many other relatives are
dead, including her husband,
O.V. Mooney Lynn.
Certainly Lynn isnt the first
celebrity of a certain age to be
less than forthcoming about a
birthday, but the discrepancy is
significant because age isnt just
a number for the Country Music
Hall of Fame member. It is
woven into her compelling life
story, made famous in her 1976
bestselling autobiography, Coal
Miners Daughter, and the sub-
sequent film starring Sissy
Spacek. The movie made $67
million nationwide and was
nominated for seven Oscars;
Spacek won for her portrayal of
Lynn.
The Grammy-winning singer
recently announced that it will
become a Broadway musical,
starring actress and singer
Zooey Deschanel.
The way Lynn chose to tell it
in the book, she was married at
13, moved with her husband to
Washington State at 16 and was a
mother of four by 18. Lynn has
six kids in all. The marriage cer-
tificate shows that Lynn instead
married just shy of her 16th
birthday, which was not unusual
in Kentucky at that time. Her
husband was 21.
It would have been illegal for a
girl under the age of 14 to marry
in Kentucky in 1948, said R. Eric
Henninger of the Kentucky State
Law Library. At that time, he
said, lots of folks didnt have any
sort of official proof of age.
An AP reporter recently found
Lynns birth certificate online
that listed a different birthdate
from the one listed in the news
agencys database of celebrity
birthdays. The reporter changed
the date in the database; when
the new birthday was used in a
recent story, the Country Music
Hall of Fame contacted the AP
about the discrepancy.
Lynns daughter, Patsy Lynn
Russell, did not respond to
emailed requests for comment.

years older than she says and

MADRID
Europes economy fragile
C
haos in Greek politics and Spanish
banking combined this week to
underscore just how fragile Europes
economy remains after an eviscerating
austerity regime that has spawned
unemployment, desperation and mi-
sery. After more than a week trying to
form a government, Greek politicians
gave up this week and called another
vote for June with no real reason to
think it will get them any further from
the chaos that reigns.
Spain was forced to deny that a trou-
bled bank faced a run on its deposits,
then saw a major ratings agency down-
grade 16 of its lenders and four of its
semi-autonomous regions, similar to
U.S. states.
On Friday, Spains central bank an-
nounced that the level of bad loans on
the books of Spanish banks hit by
broke construction companies, reces-
sion and the worst unemployment rate
in the 17-nation eurozone is at an
18-year high, fueling concerns about
the financial sector in the eurozones
fourth-largest economy.
BEIRUT
Opposition forces march
Syrian forces on Friday fired on pro-
testers holding the largest opposition
marches yet in Aleppo, a sign of rising
anti-regime sentiment in the countrys
biggest city, which has largely re-
mained supportive of President Bashar
Assad throughout the 15-month up-
rising.
The head of the U.N. observer mis-
sion in Syria warned that neither his
team nor armed action could solve the
countrys crisis, and called on all sides
to discuss a solution. But the regime
kept up its assaults on opposition areas
and protests, while the head of Syrias
largest exile opposition group dismis-
sed the U.N.s plan as unrealistic.
CLEVELAND
Girl struck after attack
Cleveland police say a woman was
stabbed during an argument while
sitting behind the wheel of a car, tried
to drive away and struck her attackers
2-year-old daughter. The woman and
the girl both died.
The toddlers mother, 29-year-old
Kimberly Black of Cleveland, was
found naked several blocks away and
arrested. There were no immediate
charges.
The death of 29-year-old Sharice
Swain of Cleveland is being investigat-
ed as a homicide.
Blacks daughter Kimshia Ruffin was
killed. The girls 1-year-old sibling also
was struck, but the injuries apparently
are not life-threatening.
NEW ORLEANS
Shipwreck yields new info
An oil company exploration crews
chance discovery of a 200-year-old
shipwreck in a little-charted stretch of
the Gulf of Mexico is yielding a trove of
new information to scientists who say
its one of the most well-preserved old
wrecks ever found in the Gulf.
Video shows muskets and gin bottles
littering the Gulf bottom, along with an
anchor and cannons in the wreck.
Scientists say the ship is about 200
miles off the northern Gulf coast and
about 4,000 feet deep. There was plen-
ty of pirate and military activity in the
Gulf at the time, surrounding the War
of 1812, the Texas revolution and the
Mexican-American War. The buccaneer
Jean Lafitte and other pirates sailed the
Gulf to smuggle goods into New Or-
leans, Galveston, Texas, and elsewhere.

WASHINGTON In his
first visit to the Oval Office,
French President Francois Hol-
lande declared he will with-
draw all French combat troops
fromAfghanistanbyyearsend,
making clear to President Ba-
rack Obama the timeline for
endingtheU.S.-ledwar will not
trump a campaign pledge that
helped Hollande gain his new
job.
Obama nodded along on Fri-
day, knowing what was com-
ing, but did not otherwise di-
rectly respond. Heading into a
NATOsummit onthecourseof
the war and beyond, the White
House has sought to empha-
size the war coalition will re-
main firm even as nations pull
back. And Hollande assured
Obama that France was not out
to cut and run.
We will continue to support
Afghanistanina different way,
Hollande said. Im pretty sure
I will find the right means so
that our allies can continue
with their mission and at the
same time I can comply to the
promise I made to the French
people.
Frances declaration has sig-
nificance far beyond its bor-
ders. Hollandes move means
France, one of the top contrib-
utors of troops to the war, will
be removing the combat forces
a full twoyears before the time-
line agreed to by allies in the
coalition. Hollande later told
reporters that some residual
number of Frances current
3,300 troops will remain in Af-
ghanistanafter this year topro-
videtrainingandtobringhome
equipment. But he alluded to
the reaction that Frances fast-
track withdrawal may get from
its NATO allies when they
gather in Chicago Sunday and
Monday.
Our decision will be taken,
he said. I cant tell you that it
will be applauded, but it will be
taken.
The United States and its al-
liesplantoendthecombat mis-
sion in Afghanistan at the end
2014. Afghanistanwill movein-
tothecombat leadin2013. The
UnitedStates has about 90,000
troops inAfghanistan, far more
than any partner nation, and is
on pace to shrink that number
to68,000bytheendof Septem-
ber.
Beyond their White House
talks, Obama and Hollande are
meeting at the G-8 summit Fri-
day and Saturday in Maryland
before shifting to the NATO
conference in Obamas home
town.

President Barack Obama shakes hands with French Presi-
dent Francois Hollande at the White House on Friday.
WASHINGTON The House
on Friday passed a $642 billion de-
fensebill that abandonsthedeficit-
cutting agreement that President
Barack Obama and congressional
Republicans backed last summer.
On a 299-120 vote, lawmakers
backed the spending blueprint
that adds $8billionfor themilitary
for next year. The bill calls for a
missile defense site on the East
Coast that the military opposes
andrestrictstheabilityof thepresi-
dent toreducethearsenal of nucle-
ar weapons under a 2010 treaty
withRussia. It alsopreserves ships
and aircraft that the Pentagon
wanted to retire in a cost-cutting
move.
Lawmakers also rejected the
militarys request for another
round of domestic base closings.
TheWhiteHousehasthreateneda
veto, as Republicans made whole-
sale changes in Obamas budget
proposal.
Earlier Friday, the House reaf-
firmed the indefinite detention of
suspected terrorists, even of U.S.
citizens captured on American
soil.
Acoalitionof Democratsandtea
party Republicans fell short in
theireffort toendthecontroversial
policy established last year and
based on the post-Sept. 11 autho-
rizationfortheuseof militaryforce
that allows indefinite detention of
enemy combatants.
The House rejected an amend-
ment by Reps. Adam Smith, D-
Wash., andJustinAmash, R-Mich.,
that would have barred indefinite
detention and rolled back manda-
tory military custody. The vote
was 238-182.
The frightening thing here is
that the government is claiming
the power under the Afghanistan
authorization for use of military
force as a justification for entering
American homes to grab people,
indefinitely detain them and not
givethemachargeortrial,Amash
saidduringhoursof Housedebate.
The policys supporters argued
that ending it would weaken na-
tional security and coddle terror-
ists.
The spending blueprint calls for
moneyforaircraft, ships, weapons,
the war in Afghanistan and a 1.7
percent pay raise for military per-
sonnel, billions of dollars more
than Obama proposed.
The bill snubs the Pentagons
budget that was based on a new
military strategy shifting focus
from the Iraq and Afghanistan
wars to future challenges in Asia,
the Mideast and in cyberspace.

ATLANTAFaced with the
prospect of losing both hands
and her one remaining foot, a
young Georgia woman battling
to survive a case of flesh-eating
bacteria that has already
claimed one leg mouthed the
words Lets do this.
Aimee Copeland, 24, shed
no tears, she never batted an
eyelash, her father, Andy Co-
peland, wrote on Facebook on
Friday about the conversation
he and his wife had with their
daughter the day before.
I was crying because I am a
proud father of an incredibly
courageous young lady, Cope-
land wrote.
It was not immediately clear
Friday whether the surgeries
had already been performed. A
hospital spokeswoman re-
ferred questions to the fathers
online post.
The story of Copelands bat-
tle to survive has inspired an
outpouring of support from
around the world. The Univer-
sityof West Georgiastudent de-
veloped a rare condition called
necrotizing fasciitis after suf-
fering a deep cut in her leg in a
May1fall froma homemadezip
line over the Little Tallapoosa
River.
She has been hospitalized in
critical conditionat anAugusta
hospital, battling kidney failure
and other organ damage. She
had been on a breathing tube
until recently, when doctors
performed a tracheotomy, her
father said.
Until Thursday, Aimee Cope-
land did not know the full ex-
tent of her condition, only that
her hands were badly infected.
Andy Copeland said he told
his daughter about what had
happened since the accident,
how her one leg had been am-
putated. Doctors had once
characterized her survival as
slim to none.
We told her of the outpour-
ing of love from across the
world, her father said. "We
told her that the world loved
and admired her. We explained
that she had become a symbol
of hope, love and faith. Aimees
eyes widened and her jawdrop-
ped. She was amazed.

ATLANTAFor the first time, health
officials are proposing that all baby
boomers get tested for hepatitis C.
Anyone born from1945 to1965 should
get a one-time blood test to see if they
have the liver-destroying virus, the Cen-
ters for Disease Control and Prevention
said in draft recommendations issued
Friday.
Baby boomers account for 2 million of
the 3.2 million Americans infected with
the blood-borne virus. The virus can take
decades tocause liver damage, andmany
people dont know theyre infected.
CDCofficials believe the newmeasure
could lead 800,000 more baby boomers
to get treatment and could save more
than 120,000 lives.
The CDC views hepatitis C as an un-
recognized health crisis for the country,
and we believe the time is nowfor a bold
response, said Dr. John W. Ward, the
CDCs hepatitis chief.
Several developments drove the CDCs
push for wider testing, he said.
Recent data has shown that from1999
and2007, there was a 50percent increase
in the number of Americans dying from
hepatitis C-related diseases. Also, two
drugs hit the market last year that prom-
ise to cure many more people than was
previously possible.
The hepatitis Cvirus is most common-
ly spread today through sharing needles
to inject drugs. Before widespread
screening of blood donations began in
1992, it was also spread through blood
transfusions.

PITTSBURGH State Su-
preme Court Justice Joan Orie
Melvin was charged Friday with
illegally using her taxpayer-
funded staff in her campaigns
for a seat on the states highest
court in a scheme that ensnared
her sister, a senator awaiting
sentencing on similar charges.
Orie Melvin said outside
court that she will vigorously
defend herself against the nine
criminal charges, which a grand
jury report called a tale of cor-
ruption that she actively con-
doned and even promoted.
I am a woman of faith, Orie
Melvin said. My faith will see
me through this. And I will not
resign because of these politi-
cally motivated charges.
The high court relieved her of
judicial and administrative du-
ties Friday, but she remains a
Supreme Court justice, on the
payroll with a $195,000 salary
and full benefits. The court also
ordered Orie Melvins Pitts-
burgh office sealed to secure re-
cords, files and equipment that
are property of the court.
The charges come two
months after her sister Repub-
lican state Sen. Jane Orie was
convicted of 14 counts of theft
of services, conflict of interest
and forgery charges.
The grand jury report said
Orie Melvin and her staff used
personal email accounts to
shield the actual email address-
es that generated the messages,
hiding the fact that political ac-
tivities were being handled by
the staffers while they were on
the state payroll. Orie Melvin
also used her state-paid tele-
phone line to solicit support
from hundreds of Republican
committee members around
the state, the report said.
Lisa Sasinoski, a former law
clerk, told the grand jury that
Orie Melvins aide and sister,
Janine Orie, ordered her to
work the polls for Orie Melvin
in the 2003 election. Sasinoski
testified that she told Orie Mel-
vin after the election that the il-
legal campaign activities need-
ed to end; the next day, she was
fired.
The grand jury found evi-
dence that Superior Court per-
sonnel, court-provided facili-
ties, and court-supplied office
equipment were used in the
2003 and 2009 elections.
The Administrative Office of
Pennsylvania Courts said this is
apparently only the second
time a sitting justice has faced
criminal charges. Justice Rolf
Larsen was accused in 1993 of
using the names of court em-
ployees to fraudulently obtain
prescription drugs. He was re-
moved from the bench when
the charges were filed and was
convicted the following year.
The grand jury investigation
began in 2009 when an intern in
Sen. Ories office complained to
the district attorneys office
that shed seen the lawmakers
staff doing campaign work for
Orie Melvin just days before she
was elected to the high court.

LOS ANGELES Excitement
is building over a rare "ring"
eclipse that is expected to be vis-
ible in California and other parts
of the Southwest.
The Griffith Observatory is set
to hold a special eclipse-viewing
event Sunday, and plans to sell af-
fordable eclipse-viewing glasses
andother devices that will project
images of the eclipse on the
ground. Regular sunglasses will
not protect the eyes, said observ-
atory spokeswoman Susan Szo-
tyori.
Telescopes equipped with spe-
cial filters will also be set up to
help the public view the eclipse,
officials said.
The best view of the ring
eclipse which scientists call an
"annular" eclipse, in which the
moon completely blocks out the
sun except for an annulus, or ring
of fire, around the moons edge
is expected to be on the northern
edge of California, coursing near
Eureka, Redding, the northern
suburbs of Sacramento and Lake
Tahoe.
The rest of California is set to
still get a prime view of a partial
eclipse on Sunday evening, with
the moon blocking out 86 percent
of the suns diameter in Los An-
geles, according to Griffith Ob-
servatory officials.
In Los Angeles, the moon will
begin to obscure the sun at 5:24
p.m. Sunday, reach its maximum
coverage at 6:38p.m., andexit the
sunspathat 7:42p.m., just10min-
utes before sunset, observatory
officials said.
According to NASA, the annu-
lar eclipse will begin at sunrise lo-
cal time in southern China, then
pass over Hong Kong; Taipei, Tai-
wan; and Tokyo before hitting its
greatest extent in the Pacific
Ocean near Alaskas Aleutian Is-
lands. After entering California,
the moons shadow will block al-
most all sunlight fromReno, Nev.;
the Grand Canyon in Arizona; Al-
buquerque, N.M.; and Lubbock,
Texas.
The zone where a partial
eclipse is viewable is much wider,
stretching over most of eastern
China, Korea, thePhilippines, Sib-
eria, Hawaii, Canada and Mexico.
NASA has posted calculations of
solar eclipse times in foreign
countries and the United States.
NASA has also set up an inter-
active Google mapshowingtimes
of the eclipse.

The Rev. Ann Marie Acacio,
Spiritual Aims Team chair for
the Kiwanis, said the award rec-
ognizes dedicated individuals
in our community who have a
passion for serving children of
various ages
The motto for Kiwanis Inter-
national is serving the children
of the world one child at a time,
and she certainly fits the Kiwa-
nis motto well, Acacio said.
The award is named for a for-
mer Kiwanis president and pas-
tor known as the Clergyman of
the Valley for his work in build-
ing bridges between different
faiths and denominations in the
area.
In researching the award, Har-
ry said she saw a similarity be-
tween her own work bringing to-
gether children of all abilities
with Ayers.
I guess I really didnt know
how similar their mission is to
my mission in life, Harry said.
Being of service to a loving
God by caring for his children is
a great privilege, and that we
probably do more divine inter-
vention than early intervention
some days.
Practices her faith
Like Ayers, faith also plays a
guiding role in Harrys life.
Throughout her entire career
shes found time to teach Sunday
school each week and she said
her faith has influenced her ca-
reer as an educator.
If I can share what I know, my
faith and how its impacted my
life, I feel thats part of my re-
sponsibility as a Christian, she
said.
Harrys career of helping oth-
ers began with her own plea for
help. A preschool teacher just
starting out, Harry said her edu-
cation hadnt prepared her to
deal with the physical needs of
developmentally-disabled chil-
dren.
Nobody said, if you have a
child who has Down syndrome,
how are you going to position
him, because he cant sit up, she
recalled.
She sought the advice of a
physical therapist named Carol
Moyer, who Harry said would be
her mentor until her death 15
years ago. Six months later
Moyer called her, offering her a
newly created position as a pre-
school teacher for the associ-
ation.
She accepted and served in
that position from 1975 until
1980, when she became an early
intervention teacher educating
developmentally disabled chil-
dren in their homes.
Harry said working with those
children and their families was
one of the most rewarding expe-
riences of her life.
In 1985, Harry was promoted
to program director, and was
named executive director in
1996. While she missed the daily
interaction with children and
was unsure how to handle the
transition from teacher to ad-
ministrator, Harry said she ac-
cepted her new position as an
opportunity to touch even more
lives.
I love being on the floor,
Harry said. But so many people
have told me that sometimes the
small impact you can have with
small groups of children and
families needs to be ballooned,
to serve many more individu-
als.
Disorders spotted earlier
During her tenure as execu-
tive director, Harry said physi-
cians and parents have grown
much more attentive to signs of
developmental delay in young
children, leading to an explosion
in diagnoses of disorders like au-
tism.
Thats led to an increased de-
mand for WVCA services and
caused the association to out-
grow its former home in Wilkes-
Barres Kirby Health Center. In
2007, Harry oversaw WVCAs
purchase and move to the for-
mer Regis Academy school in
Forty Fort.
Shes also seen great strides in
early-childhood education meth-
odology, and said WVCAhas im-
plemented current, proven tech-
niques under her tenure. The as-
sociation today takes a holistic
approach to early-childhood in-
tervention, employing teachers,
speech therapists and physical
therapists simultaneously in
working with children.
What happens is, we keep
these kids out of special educa-
tion, Harry said. If you have
kids with bad articulation, and
you get to them by age 4, by the
time they get to school they can
be understood. Its money well
spent and the earlier you do it
the greater the benefit.
Harry said she plans to start
her approaching retirement by
visiting family and friends who
live outside the area, including
her two daughters who live in
Winston-Salem, N.C. and Atlan-
ta. She will pursue hobbies that
had taken a back-seat to her ca-
reer and continue her involve-
ment in volunteer work.
You dont work in the non-
profit world and not see a need,
because theres so much need
out there, she said.
Harry lives with her husband,
retired Wyoming Valley West
teacher Stewart Harry, in Forty
Fort. She has two children, Be-
thany, 32, of North Carolina and
Lindsay, 28, of Georgia.

HARRISBURG Pennsylva-
nia prosecutors on Friday added
new details in court documents
about the criminal allegations
against former Penn State assist-
ant football coach Jerry Sandus-
ky, but did not add or withdraw
any of the 52 counts he faces.
The changes made to the docu-
ments included identifying loca-
tions of alleged sexual abuse, in-
cluding the Sandusky home in
State College, university facili-
ties and hotels. In several cases,
time frames were changed.
Chief Deputy Attorney Gener-
al Frank Fina wrote that Sandus-
kys legal team has already been
provided with extensive pretrial
discovery that should satisfy con-
cerns about proper notice or due
process that might otherwise
arise when a charging document
is amended.
Fina said Sanduskys lawyer
was notified on May 11 about the
proposedchanges anddidnot ob-
ject. Reached by phone late Fri-
day, Sandusky lawyer Joe Amen-
dola declined to comment, cit-
ing a gag order in the case.
Court documents were also
amended on May 8, when
Judge John Cleland granted a
prosecution request to change
the date of a key allegation
against Sandusky from March
2002 toFebruary 2001. That in-
cident is the alleged sexual at-
tack by Sandusky on a boy,
called Victim 2, in football
team showers. Mike McQue-
ary, who was then a graduate
assistant, has testified he wit-
nessed that incident.

PHILADELPHIA Former
longtime Pennsylvania House
Democratic leader Bill DeWeese
is out on bail days after he began
serving a 2 1/2-to-five-year pris-
on term for corruption.
Aspokesman for the State Cor-
rection Institution in Camp Hill
confirmed late Friday that De-
Weese was released on bail.
DeWeese had reported to Dau-
phin County Prison in Harris-
burg on Monday to begin his sen-
tence.
AlsoFriday, Pennsylvania pros-
ecutors Friday urged a judge to
sentence former state House
Democratic whip Mike Veon to
additional prison time for his sec-
ond corruption conviction.
In a sentencing memorandum
filed in Dauphin County court,
the attorney generals office said
the former Beaver County law-
maker should receive a sentence
that exceeds the standard guide-
lines a move that could add
more than six years to the term
he is already serving.
Veon and co-defendant Anna-
marie Perretta-Rosepink are
scheduled to be sentenced
Wednesday by Judge Bruce Brat-
ton.
The prosecutors said the 55-
year-old Veon has refused to ac-
cept responsibility for the misuse
of state funds at a nonprofit he
once ran in Beaver County and
sought instead to shift the blame
to others.

BUL L E T I N BOARD
The day starts early this evening with the second jewel of the triple
crown, The Preakness. Unlike the Kentucky Derby this race seems
clear cut tome, withbasicallya matchrace betweenDerbypacesetter
Bodemesiter and the eventual winner Ill Have Another, with Bode-
mesiter favored yet again. But if things set up like I believe they well,
withIll HaveAnother stalkingBodemeister, theresults looktobethe
same as it was on the first Saturday in May, with Ill Have Another
heading to New York with a shot at racing history.only time will
tell. It should be a great race for sure! Look for Creative Cause and
Went The Day Well to battle it out for the minors.
On the live racing side of it, Sweet Lou makes his long awaited
returnto the races tonight at the Downs inthe thirdandfinal division
of the richPennsylvania Sire Stakes. Trainedby RonBurke andreined
by Hall Of Famer Dave Palone, this three-year old son of Yankee
Cruiser was just devastating last year in winning the two-year old
pacer of the year honors. He completed his ten win campaign with an
absolute romp in the $650,000 Breeders Crown Final at Woodbine,
winning by seven lengths in an eye-popping1:49. He is a monster and
I for one cant wait to see how good he may be. Judging by his last
qualifier at the Meadows, we are in for a treat in that twelfth race.

DETROIT Justin Verlan-
der came within two outs of
his third career no-hitter, allow-
ing only Josh Harrisons ninth-
inning single in the Detroit
Tigers 6-0 win over the Pitts-
burgh Pirates on Friday night.
The 29-year-old Verlander,
last years AL MVP and Cy
Young Award winner, nearly
became the sixth major league
pitcher with at least three
career no-hitters. But with one
out in the ninth, Harrison
reached out and flicked a clean
single into center field.
The crowd at Comerica
Park, already on its feet, gave
Verlander a big ovation and the
right-hander quickly finished
off the Pirates with a pair of
groundouts. Verlander com-
pleted his gem with 12 strike-
outs and two walks.
White Sox 3, Cubs 2
CHICAGO Gordon Beck-
ham hit a tie-breaking homer
in the eighth inning Friday and
the Chicago White Sox over-
came the loss of star Paul Ko-
nerko to beat the Chicago Cubs
3-2 in what was likely Kerry
Woods final major league
game.
Beckhams solo shot and a
two-run blast from Konerko in
the first were the only runs
allowed by Cubs starter Jeff
Samardzija (4-2). Konerko
suffered a laceration above his
left eye and swelling when he
was hit Samardizja pitch in the
third inning and had to leave
the game.
Phillies 6, Red Sox 4
PHILADELPHIA Cole
Hamels pitched seven strong
innings, and Hunter Pence and
Freddy Galvis homered to lead
the Philadelphia Phillies to
their sixth straight victory with
a win over the Boston Red Sox.
Hamels (6-1) gave up three
runs on six hits while striking
out nine and walking one. It
was the sixth straight win for
Hamels, who improved to 4-0
in five career starts against
Boston.
Streaking Carlos Ruiz went 2
for 3 with a pair of RBIs for
Philadelphia, which moved two
games above .500 for the first
time this season. Ruiz, who
entered leading major league
catchers in several offensive
categories, is 11 for 17 in his
last five games.
Jonathan Papelbon pitched a
scoreless ninth for his 12th
save in as many chances.
Yankees 4, Reds 0
NEW YORK Andy Pet-
titte pitched eight shutout
innings for his first regular-
season win since July 2010,
leading the New York Yankees
over the Cincinnati Reds.
Making his second major
league start since ending his
one-year retirement, the 39-
year-old left-hander (1-1) limit-
ed the young, free-swinging
Reds to four hits all singles.
With a fastball that reached 90
mph, an excellent cutter and a
sharp curve, he struck out nine
and walked one, throwing 78 of
115 pitches for strikes. Given a
1-0 lead on Alex Rodriguezs
RBI grounder in the fourth,
Pettitte pitched well enough to
make it stand up. Robinson
Cano hit a solo homer off Bron-
son Arroyo (2-2) in the eighth
and Raul Ibanez hit a two-run
drive, his eighth homer of the
season.
Marlins 3, Indians 2
CLEVELAND Carlos
Zambrano pitched seven
strong innings to help the
Miami Marlins open inter-
league play by beating the
Cleveland Indians.
Miami broke a 2-2 tie in the
eighth on a sacrifice fly by
Hanley Ramirez. All three
Marlins runs were scored by
batters who had started rallies
with walks.
Blue Jays 14, Mets 5
TORONTO J.P. Arencibia
and Rajai Davis each hit two
home runs, Yan Gomes hit his
first career homer and the
Toronto Blue Jays routed the
New York Mets.
Trailing by nine runs, the
Mets gave their weary bullpen
a break by turning to catcher
Rob Johnson to pitch the
eighth inning. Johnson pro-
duced New Yorks only three-
up, three down inning of the
night, striking out Eric
Thames to end it.
Braves 5, Rays 3
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Tommy Hanson pitched seven
effective innings, Freddie Free-
man drove in two runs and the
Atlanta Braves beat the Tampa
Bay Rays.
Hanson (5-3) allowed two
runs and six hits in seven in-
nings. Freeman had a run-
scoring double and Brian
McCann hit an RBI single that
put the Braves up 4-2 in the
fifth.
Orioles 2 Nationals 1
WASHINGTON Nick
Markakis homered into the
second deck in right field to
give the Baltimore Orioles a
win in 11 innings over the
Washington Nationals on Fri-
day night.
Markakis blast off Nationals
reliever Ryan Mattheus (2-1)
helped the Orioles improve to
6-2 in extra innings with all six
victories coming on the road.
The first-place Orioles have
won four straight.
Diamondbacks 6, Royals 4
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Mi-
guel Montero piled up three
RBIs, driving in the go-ahead
runs with a double in the
eighth inning, and the Arizona
Diamondbacks beat the Kansas
City Royals.
The Royals had pulled into a
tie in the seventh before Kelvin
Herrera (0-1) gave up back-to-
back singles to Willie Bloom-
quist and Justin Upton to start
the eighth. Monteros second
double of the game off reliever
Tim Collins gave the Diamond-
backs the lead.
Relievers Brad Ziegler (3-1)
and Craig Breslow got the
game to J.J. Putz, who worked
around a two-out walk to Billy
Butler in the ninth for his
eighth save of the season.
Rangers 4, Astros 1
HOUSTON Adrian Beltre
homered and drove in two runs
and Michael Young broke out
of a slump with two hits and an
RBI to lift the Texas Rangers to
a win over the Houston Astros.
The Rangers were up 3-1
when Beltre belted his eighth
homer, a two-out solo shot to
left-center in the seventh in-
ning. Beltre put the Rangers on
top 1-0 in the third with a sacri-
fice fly. He also doubled in the
fifth and scored on Youngs
double to make it 3-1.

HOUSTON Texas Rang-
ers star slugger Josh Hamilton
insists he isnt worried about
his impending free agency.
Team president Nolan Ryan
certainly is.
Hamilton, who is eligible
for free agency after this sea-
son, said before the start of
Fridays series with the Hous-
ton Astros that hes not worry-
ing about it at all.
Im praying a lot about it,
the deeply religious player
said. God will show up and
Ill be here or somewhere else.
Its not about where I want to
be, its about where he wants
me to be.
Ryan said theyll put their
best foot forward to keep the
MLB home run leader. But
that you dont know what
somebody else might do.
He laughed and shook his
head when asked how impor-
tant Hamilton was to his
team.
Those kinds of players
dont come along very often.
You can count them on one
hand those kinds of impact
players like that, Ryan said.
So hes definitely a very spe-
cial player that means an aw-
ful lot to any organization and
very much to our organiza-
tion. Were going to make ev-
ery effort to do what we can
do, whether that works out or
not, well just have to wait and
see.

future still

HERSHEY For the second
straight year, Wyoming Semina-
ry has advanced to the semifinals
of the PIAA Class 2A Champion-
ships.
Now the Blue Knights will at-
tempt to reach the finals for the
secondtime inschool historyand
the first since winning it all in
2001, the inaugural state team
tournament.
Seminary defeated District 7
runner-up Hampton 3-2 in Fri-
days quarterfinals and will face
District 1 champion Harriton in
the todays semifinals at 10 a.m.
at the Hershey Racquet Club.
The winner moves on to the fi-
nals, which are slated for 3:30
p.m. this afternoon at the same
location.
Three of Seminarys five
matches against Hampton went
to three sets, and the team only
lost one of them.
TheKnights No. 1singles play-
er George Parkhurst won in three
sets. The senior, who is a Siena
recruit, dropped his first set in a
tiebreaker 6-7 (3-6). But he re-
bounded to win the next two sets
6-2, 6-1.
His twin brother Harry won in
straight sets at No. 2 singles 6-2,
6-0. And the No. 2 doubles team
of Evan Botwin and Matt Cart-
wright picked up a three-set vic-
tory. They also lost the first set,
going down 2-6, but came back to
win the last two by scores of 6-3
each.
Harriton, making its first ap-
pearance inthe tournament since
2010, swept Lancaster Country
Day 5-0 in a quarterfinal match
prior to Seminarys contest. Har-
riton is a three-time state cham-
pion with its last title coming in
2007. The teams last appearance
in the finals was 2009.
The semifinal in the top half of
the bracket will pit Wyomissing
District 3 champion, two-time
state champion and three-time
state runner-up against District
7 champion Sewickley Academy.
Both of those teams won Friday
5-0.
Wyomissing was the state run-
ner-up last year, falling to Holy
Ghost Prep, the same team that
ousted the Blue Knights in the
semifinals.
Sewickley is looking for its trip
to the finals since taking runner-
up in 2008. The team has one
state gold coming in 2006.
In 2001, Wyoming Seminarys
state title came by defeating
Wyomissing in the finals.

HUGHESTOWN Already
known for her scoring, her play-
making ability and her elusive
footwork, Pittston Areas Allie
Barber added another piece to
her repertoire Friday.
Blink and you might miss her.
Barber scoredtwoof her game-
highsix goals ina 26-secondspan
in the first half of Pittston Areas
7-0 win over North Pocono in the
first round of the District 2 play-
offs, leading the Patriots to the
programs first postseason victo-
ry.
With the win, eighth-seeded
Pittston Area (11-3) advances to
the second round against top-
seeded Dallas at 4 p.m. Monday.
North Pocono concludes its sea-
son at 8-7-1.
It feels really exciting, Bar-
ber said of her outburst. But it
feels even better to have it come
ina game that made some history
for us.
From the beginning, the game
had the looks of one that could
have reshaped the record books
for more reasons than a win.
Barbers tear began in the 12th
minute as she corralled a long
pass from Carly Filipski, eluded
two defenders and quickly side-
stepped the onrushing goalie to
slide the ball into an empty net
for a 1-0 lead.
Roughly 10 minutes after Bar-
bers first strike, Madison Cardi-
nale unleashed a drive on the ball
from35 yards out that archedjust
out of reachof the Trojans Megh-
an Utter for a 2-0 lead.
And from Cardinales shot on,
it was just a matter of time before
the goals came.
Barber added two more first-
half goals before opening the sec-
ond half with two goals in 26 sec-
onds on assists from Katelyn Pu-
gliese and Liz Mikitish, respec-
tively.
The quick strikes effectively
put the game out of reach, but
Barber made sure tosave her best
goal for last.
With 20 minutes to play and
having been moved back to mid-
field, Barber took a short pass
roughly 60 yards from North Po-
conos goal and utilized a crafty
combination of speed and foot-
work to weave downfield past
several Trojans.
She then laced a shot into the
far corner of the goal for the final
score in a game that could have
seen even more goals.
On four occasions Pittston Ar-
ea missed scoring by a slim mar-
gin, three times clanging the ball
off the frame or crossbar after a
shot eluded Utter. Another shot
narrowly missed the high corner
of the goal.
Thats one of the best things
about this team, they all play to-
gether when theyre out there,
Pittston Area coach Nicole Tieso
said.
They all do their jobs and con-
tribute to both offense and de-
fense. It was a complete team ef-
fort out there.
The biggest contribution de-
fensively for the Patriots may
have come from goalie Jordan
Cumbo.
While North Pocono had few
opportunities throughout the
game, what chances that came
along were quickly takenaway by
Cumbo. The junior finished with
seven saves, some on close-range
shots and one after a defensive
lapse that left the junior alone in
her net with two Trojans closing
in.
We were more aggressive in
the second half, we talked about
that at halftime as an adjustment
we needed to make, but you need
to do more than talk at halftime,
North Pocono coach Dave Davis
said.
I still think we came farther as
a teamthis year than we were ex-
pected to, but bottom line is
Pittston Area came out on fire to-
day and we came out flat.

NEWARK, N.J. For one
game, at least, in the Eastern
Conference finals, the New Jer-
sey Devils found a way to beat
Henrik Lundqvist and the New
York Rangers.
After losing out inthe Rangers
block party in Game 1, the Devils
found a solution in Game 2. They
forechecked, moved the puck,
didnt give the NewYork defense
time to set up, shot quickly and
got traffic in front of the Rangers
goaltender.
It wasnt anything novel. It was
Hockey 101, and a better effort
thaninthe opener of the best-of-7
series.
Nowits theRangers turntore-
spond as the series shifts to New
Jersey for Game 3 at the Pruden-
tial Center on Saturday.
We know the Rangers are go-
ing to push, Devils coach Peter
DeBoer said. We know theyre
going to come out and play a
great hockey game tomorrow. Its
on us to do the same thing. So I
expect it to be the best game of
the series tomorrow from both
ends.
Both teams returned to the ice
on Friday and, of course, contin-
ued to tweak their games.
I think both teams, DeBoer
said, are going to take their
game to another level.
At the least, the Devils need to
prevent the Rangers from block-
ing shots again. New York
blocked 26 in its 3-0 win in Game
1, but NewJersey did a much bet-
ter job in getting rubber at
Lundqvist in evening the series
on Wednesday.
They do a great job of block-
ing shots, but the reality of it is
that we have to get two or three
guys in front and then somehow
get the puck through, said Dev-
ils defenseman Bryce Salvador,
who had assists on New Jerseys
final two goals, including the pri-
mary one on Ryan Carters game-
tying goal late in the second peri-
od Wednesday.
They do it more than anyone.
We have to maintain some sort of
presence in front of the net. It
doesnt have to be a great shot,
but it has to get there. I tried to
get it to the side of the goal and
Carter got to it. If we dont try,
then nothing goes in. We have to
get the pucks to the net to create
second shots.
Losing the battles didnt sit
well with Rangers coach John
Tortorella. New York posted the
best record in the conference by
winning the little wars all season,
and wouldnt have survived two
seven-game series vs. Ottawa and
Washington to get to this point,
had it not showed that kind of
grit.
I think thats a big part of how
we play, Tortorella said Friday.
Big, small or medium build, we
play hard along the boards. Obvi-
ously, that was void the other
night. So no matter who it is,
when youre at this point in the
season, youre playing against
teams that were playing against,
Jersey, and the other two teams
playing in the West, thats a big
part of playoff hockey. Thats a
big part of who we are, and we
certainly have to be more consis-
tent with that part.
For the most part, the Devils
have dumped the puck into the
Rangers end instead of trying to
skate it into the zone, and the
Rangers defense has been quick
to the puck. The Game 2 board
battles, though, went in the Dev-
ils favor and that allowed them
to shoot more.
Plus, the increased traffic ap-
pears to have helped. But Lundq-
vist isnt so sure. He felt the Sen-
ators and Capitals got more play-
ers in front of himin the first two
rounds. The Devils are just better
with their sticks, perhaps.
Jersey has always been good
at knockingpucks down, Lundq-
vist said. So you have to respect
that. We just have to play them
hard. I dont think they played
more in front than the other
teams weve played. But, again,
theyre a good team, a skilled
team that always, like I said, is
knocking pucks down.
Especially inthe middle of the
ice. If you try to go across or
something like that, theyre very
good at going the other way. So
weve talked about a few things,
and were going to correct it and
be better.

in the case against Clemens, who
is accused of lying to Congress
when he denied using perform-
ance-enhancing drugs. McNa-
mee testifiedthis weekthat he in-
jected the seven-time Cy Young
Award winner with steroids and
human growth hormone.
Meanwhile, U.S. District Judge
Reggie Walton put both sides on
notice that the trial needs to
wrap up by June 8 or else it will
have to recess for about a month
because of various scheduling
conflicts.
And then well have some real
unhappy jurors, Walton said.
The trial was supposed to last
four to six weeks, but its now
wrapping upits fifthweek as Wal-
tonimposeda 90-minute limit for
each side on each witness once
McNamee is done.
Ive never done this, andI hate
to, said Walton, who has been a
judge for more thanfour decades.
Walton also said that closing
arguments for each side will be
limited to two hours.
McNamee has said he kept
medical evidence after injecting
Clemens with steroids in 2001
and stored some of the material
in a Miller Lite beer can. But un-
der cross-examination, he ac-
knowledged that some of the
items in the can were not in fact
used on Clemens.
TRIAL
Continued from Page 1B
camera from me first.
I was a nervous wreck all
day, added the coach, a junior
the last time the Hawkeyes
(11-0 WVC) won a title. Im
more than ecstatic.
Our defense was right on.
We didnt hit as well as we did
the first time against them, but
we got hits and got runs at the
right time.
Northwest (10-2), winners of
the last four Division II titles,
was mesmerized by the efforts
of Tuzinski, who pitched a gem
against the potent Rangers. Her
one hit allowed was a bunt sin-
gle leading off the fourth inning
by Rachel Linso.
Tuzinski fannedeight anddid
not walk anyone.
She only faced one three-ball
count all day, and 55 of her 73
pitches (75 percent) were
strikes.
I felt it from the ride here, I
felt it was going to be a good
game, Tuzinski said of her
pitching. This was such a big
game, I was zoned in and ready
to play all day.
Ive been waiting for this for
four years.
When Northwest did put the
ball in play, the Hanover Area
defense was up to the task.
Hawkeyes second baseman
Emily Rinehimer had seven as-
sists and two putouts.
The sophomore was the busi-
est of the infielders in a game in
which Northwest did not hit a
ball out of the infield.
It was very unusual, North-
west coachKarenMay said. All
year weve been a hitting team.
Our bats got a little slow. We
dont usually do that.
Linso, Northwests pitcher,
was nearly as good as Tuzinski,
allowing just five hits and strik-
ing out six.
She kept it down, especially
with the short field, May said
of Linso.
Tuzinski also sparked the
Hawkeyes offense. Rinehimer
reached on an error to start the
game, andwithtwoouts, the se-
nior pitcher crusheda double to
right-center to drive in the run-
ner.
That hit really boosted me
up, Tuzinski said. It was a fast-
ball inside. When I got that first
hit and we took the lead, it
makes it easier to go back out
there (and pitch).
Northwest tied the game in
the fourth as, after her single,
Linso took two bases on a sacri-
fice bunt and an error. She
scoredona groundout by Olivia
McCorkel to make it 1-all.
Hanover Area responded in
the bottom of the inning, as
ODay reached on a fielders
choice. She stole second and
third before scoring on a mis-
played ground ball off the bat of
Ashley Evans.
Me andEmily ODay were in
synch on our signals, Thomas
said. She got second and got
third.
If every game was like this, I
would die.

ed the bases with no outs for
Brad Eldred, who leads the In-
ternational League in home
runs (16) and RBI (45).
But after a 3-2 count, Whelan
got the slugger on strikes. Whe-
lan still wasnt out of the jam
with Danny Worth batting. But
a groundball double-play ended
the game and saved the victory
for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
The Yankees hit three home
runs in the first three innings to
open a seven-run lead.
The first longball of the night
came from Steve Pearce. The
three-run shot, which was his
eighth of the season, gave the
Yankees a 3-0 lead in the top of
the first.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre kept
tacking on and added a single
run in the next inning on a solo
blast by Ray Kruml, his first
home run of the season for a 4-0
lead. Kruml left the game later
with an injury.
Three more runs came home
in the next inning highlighted
by a two-run homer from Fran-
cisco Cervelli and that pulled
the Yankees ahead 7-0.
Then Toledo started to
mount a comeback scoring five
off Yankee starter Manny Ba-
nuelos in the bottom of the
third.
Thebighit of theinningwas a
two-run, inside-the-park home
run by Eric Patterson to trim
SWBs lead to 7-5.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Kyle
Busch captured the pole for the
Sprint All-Star race for the sec-
ond straight year.
Busch completed the unique
three-lap qualifying that includ-
ed a mandatory four-tire pit stop
in 1 minute, 19.11 seconds. He
was the last qualifier onthe track
and knocked Ryan Newman to
the outside of the front row.
While winning the pole puts
Busch and his No. 18 Toyota in
great position to win his first All-
Star race, it certainly doesnt
guarantee a first-place finish and
the accompanying $1 million
prize.
In fact, winning the pole has
proved to be a bit of a curse. The
last pole winner to win the All-
Star race was Davey Allison in
1992.
Denny Hamlin will start third,
followed by Greg Biffle and Ke-
vin Harvick.
The All-Star race format has
changed significantly this year.
The 90-lap race will be split in-
to four 20-lap segments preced-
ing a 10-lap shootout for the $1
million prize. There will be a
mandatory pit stop prior to the
shootout.
The new format places a pre-
miumon winning one of the four
segments and showcases the im-
portance of the pit crew. The
winner of each segment will
move to the front of the field
right before the cars head down
pit road for their mandatory
stop. Drivers will then line up in
the order they leave pit road to
start the final segment.
I think format forces you to
use some strategy, said veteran
crewchief andformer teamown-
er Ray Evernham. Nobody can
sit here andsay this is what were
going to do. Youve got to per-
form on the fly.
Evernham said track position
is vital.
I would want to keep my car
in the top four positions, he
said.
The field currently consists of
20 drivers, but will grow to 23
when the green flag drops.
Included are race winners
from last season through the
May 12 race at Darlington and
previous All-Star race winners
from the past 10 years. Three
more will be added Saturday be-
fore the race the top two fin-
ishers in the 40-lap Sprint Show-
downas well as the winner of the
Sprint Fan Vote, which is almost
guaranteedto be Dale Earnhardt
Jr. should he not qualify in the
preliminary race.
A.J. Allmendinger captured
the pole for the Sprint Show-
down after running what he said
was the perfect lap in qualify-
ing Friday night and will start on
the front row alongside Martin
Truex Jr.
Despite not winning a Sprint
Cup race since 2008, Earnhardt
remains the most popular driver
in the NASCAR series and used
the fan vote to advance to All-
Star race last season.
He knows that any win, even a
non-points All-Star race, would
provide a huge boost.
I think it wouldget people ex-
cited; it would get our team ex-
cited, Earnhardt said. It would
really help build confidence. I re-
member when we won here in
2000 how much confidence it
gave me. Winning this kind of
event would do wonders for our
team.

INDIANAPOLIS Maybe
Marco Andretti can make good
on his vision of going fromlast to
first at Indianapolis.
The 25-year-oldAmericanwith
the well-known surname and the
long racing legacy put himself
atop the list of Pole Day favorites
bybecomingtheonlydriver inIn-
dianapolis 500 practice this week
to post a lap over 227 mph.
Before that, he was the first
driver to go faster than 226. Now,
one year after making the Indy
500 on the last qualifying run of
the weekend, he could become
the first Andretti to win Indys
covetedpole ina quarter century.
I showedupthis monthtowin
the race, and I still believe we
could do it from 33rd, Andretti
said after Fridays practice. If we
could do it from first that would
be fantastic. They told me it (an
Andretti on the pole) hasnt hap-
penedsincemygrandfather didit
in 1987 and that was the year I
was born, so it would be cool to
be able to be on the pole tomor-
row.
Andrettis incredible move up
the speed charts this week comes
in the midst of what has been an
extremely trying season.
He hasnt qualified better than
10th in the last three races, hasnt
finished in the top 10 yet and has
replaced his most recent radio
caller, father andteamowner, Mi-
chael Andretti, with Kyle Moyer.
Race organizers couldnt have
scripted a better story line for
Pole Day.
Last May was easily the worst
of Andrettis six career starts at
Indianapolis, and without a wave
off from James Jakes, he may
have missed the race. The An-
dretti Autosport cars struggled
all month with speed and two of
the five cars failed to qualify for
the race. Andretti only made it
because of a courageous last-min-
ute run that bumped teammate
Ryan Hunter-Reay out of the
field. Andretti wound up starting
27th.
This year Andretti is leading a
pack of 20-something Americans
who have been at or near the top
of the speed charts most of this
week, setting up a Pole Day clas-
sic of young guns vs. the old
guard.
Theyve been impressive for
sureandcertainlyguys tokeepan
eye on looking forward, said
Team Penske driver Ryan Bris-
coe, who was No. 2 Friday at
226.835. But there are a lot of
drivers here with a lot of experi-
ence and a lot of teams. Youre
talking about Andretti being a
five-car team, (Target Chip) Ga-
nassi a four-car team and Penske
being a three-car team, I think
thats what 12 cars? So some of
them will be out of the top nine
tomorrrow.
Three-time Indy 500 winner
Helio Castroneves was third fas-
test Friday at 226.716. Ten other
drivers surpassed 225 including
three-time defending IndyCar
champ Dario Franchitti, two-
time IndyCar champ Scott Dixon
and last years 500 runner-up JR
Hildebrand -- the 24-year-old
American.
The top 24 spots are expected
tobe filledSaturday. Drivers with
the nine-fastest four-lap qualify-
ing averages will advance to a 90-
minute shootout late in the after-
noon. The winner claims the big-
gest pole of the IndyCar season.
Its as wide open as it has been
in years, and nobody seems to
know where they fit in.
Why not try to go for the
pole? Marco Andretti said. We
woke the car up, and with this
added boost today, we woke my
car up today, too.

ROME A week after Novak
Djokovic and Rafael Nadal made
early exits inMadridonanexper-
imental blue court, both showed
they remain a force on red clay
Friday by reaching the Italian
Open semifinals.
The top-ranked Djokovic
struggled with his serve in the
opening set but found his range
to eliminate fifth-seeded Jo-Wilf-
riedTsonga 7-5, 6-1. Nadal defeat-
ed seventh-seeded Tomas Ber-
dych 6-4, 7-5.
In the second set I played one
of the best sets on clay this year
and this is encouraging for the
challenges to come tomorrow
and with Roland Garros, Djo-
kovic said. I amplaying and feel-
ing better every match I play.
Nadal was equally pleased.
It was a big match and one of
the higher quality matches this
year because the level of the op-
ponent is high and he plays with
big confidence and I played un-
der pressure all the time, he
said. I hit a few fantastic shots
and this kind of shot comes with
confidence.
Djokovic, the defending cham-
pion, will next play the winner of
the match between Roger Feder-
er and Italian hope Andreas Sep-
pi. Nadals semifinal opponent is
sixth-seeded David Ferrer, who
beat RichardGasquet 7-6(4), 6-3.
Among the women, Serena
Williams reached the last four af-
ter Flavia Pennetta quit with an
injured right wrist while trailing
4-0 in the first set. Williams win-
ning streak is up to 17 matches
following titles in Charleston,
S.C., and Madrid. She also has
two victories in Fed Cup. Her
next opponent is French Open
champion Li Na, who eliminated
No. 14 Dominika Cibulkova 6-1,
7-6 (4).
Defending champion Maria
Sharapova beat Venus Williams
6-4, 6-3. She will play No. 12 An-
gelique Kerber, who defeated
Wimbledon champion Petra Kvi-
tova 7-6 (2), 1-6, 6-1.
While Djokovic has not beenas
dominant as he was last year
when he had a 43-match winning
streaktheSerbstill finds a way
to win without playing his best.
Serving at 5-5 in the first set, he
saveda potentially decisive break
point with a serve and volley.
Then he took six straight points.
I really dont compare with
2011, Djokovic said. This is a
new year and I had great results
so far in and Im playing good in
Rome so far. Im increasing the
level as the tournament goes on
and this is important.
Down to No. 3 in the rankings
this week, Nadal broke in the
opening game to take control of
the first set. He recovereda break
midway through the second set
before pulling ahead for good.
Berdychwas coming off a runner-
up performance at the Madrid
Open. He lost to Federer, who
then replaced Nadal at No. 2.
Pennetta called for the trainer
after falling behind 3-0. Her wrist
was retaped but the Italian con-
ceded during the fifth game after
28 minutes of play.
I felt pain during the second
or third point of the opening
game, Pennetta said. Some-
thinghappenedonthe backhand.
... Then not being able to serve
and attack like usual, there
wasnt much else to do.
Djokovic, Nadal, Serena Williams advance in Rome

good as he is.
Ill Have Another has been do-
ing just fine since catching the
speedy Bodemeister in the final
100 yards to win the Derby by1
1
2
lengths two weeks ago.
He looks fantastic. Great en-
ergy, ONeill said. Hes main-
tained his beautiful, long stride.
Were just very happy with each
day that goes by.
Life can become a whole lot
happier for ONeill if Ill Have
Another wins the Preakness. A
victory over 8-5 morning-line fa-
vorite Bodemeister and nine
other rivals wouldset upa Triple
Crown attempt three weeks lat-
er in the Belmont Stakes.
Its been 34 years since Af-
firmed swept the Derby, Preak-
ness and Belmont and became
the 11th Triple Crown cham-
pion. Since then, 11 horses have
won the first two legs only to
come up short in the Belmont.
The most recent try came in
2008, when Big Brown was
pulled up around the turn for
home and finished last.
ONeill isnt even bothered
that Ill Have Another is the 5-2
second choice behind the horse
he defeated. He noted this is his
first Preakness while Bodemeis-
ters trainer Bob Baffert has won
the race five times in 11 tries.
I totally respect that. I just
hope anyone who bets Bode-
meister is regretting it Saturday
night, ONeill said earlier in the
week.
Baffert, meanwhile, has been
singing the praises of his colt,
who set a blistering pace in the
Derby, but was unable to fendoff
Ill Have Another. After watch-
ing him gallop at Churchill
Downs earlier in the week, Baff-
ert gave a thumbs up and had
Bodemeister shipped to Pimlico
Race Course.
On Friday, Baffert said his colt
is coming into the race in great
shape, but knows the Derby win-
ner is the horse to beat.
Hes a good horse. Hes won
all three of his races this year
against a strong groupof Califor-
nia horses, Baffert said, refer-
ring to Ill Have Another. I re-
spect the Derby winner. I come
here hoping I can turn the tables
this time and get it done.
The Preakness is a sixteenth-
of-a-mile shorter than the Derby,
about equal the distance to the
wire in the Derby where Bode-
meister lost the lead.
He just has to run that Derby
race back, Bodemeisters jock-
ey Mike Smith said. If he runs
his race like that, well be ingood
shape to get the job done.
The second leg of the Triple
Crown could turn into a two-
horse race, with Bodemeister
breaking for the lead from the
No. 7 post, andIll Have Another
in the No. 9 gate trying to
stay close until jockey Mario Gu-
tierrez determines when to
make his move.
If Bodemeister tries to open a
big lead early, ONeill says his
colt will be closer to the front
than in the Derby. If Smith tries
to slow things down, ONeill
says he has no problem with Ill
Have Another setting the pace.
The cream is starting to
come to the top, said Hall of
Famer trainer D. Wayne Lukas, a
five-time Preakness winner who
will sendout 30-1longshot Opti-
mizer. We should know a little
bit more about them (after to-
day). You should start to get
some form on these horses, if
theyre championship caliber. If
theyre Seattle Slewor Affirmed,
they just keep on doing it. Thats
what were looking for.
Thats not to say there arent
other 3-year-olds in the field ca-
pable of pulling a surprise.
Start with Went the Day Well,
the bay colt owned, trained and
ridden by the same team that
won last years Derby with Ani-
mal Kingdom. Went the Day
Well had a troubled trip in the
Derby under John Velazquez,
but made up 7
1
2 lengths in the fi-
nal 220 yards andfinishedfourth
2
1
2 lengths behind Ill Have
Another.
Graham Motion believes the
colt he trains for Barry Irwins
Team Valor International is get-
ting better. Hes the 6-1 co-third
choice with Creative Cause.
My horse is very adaptable. I
think thats one of his biggest at-
tributes. He can kind of do any-
thing you want with him, Mo-
tion said. He ended up much
farther back than Johnny want-
ed in the Derby, and thats prob-
ably what cost him being sec-
ond. Maybe cost him the win. ...
If nobody goes with the speed
horse (Bodemeister), hes not
going to be too far off the pace,
probably.
Creative Cause is not tobe dis-
missed, either. The gray colt
trained by Mike Harrington
moved into challenging position
on the turn for home in the Der-
by, but flattenedout andfinished
fifth. He also has a win over Ill
Have Another (in the Best Pal
Stakes) and Bodemeister (in the
San Felipe).

morning workout at Pimlico Race Course on Friday in Baltimore.
The Preakness Stakes takes place today.
BALTI-

One good
thing about
losing the
Kentucky
Derby is that
nobody wants
much of your time for two
solid weeks.
Bob Bafferts countdown
still had 36 hours or so left
to run Friday morning when
the silver-tongued Hall of
Fame trainer stepped outside
his barn at Pimlico Race
Course and looked at the
grandstand looming in the
distance.
I dont really get charged
up until we walk over there
Saturday afternoon, Baffert
said. Thats when it really
becomes the Preakness to
me.
Hes won the race five
times in 11 tries, three of
those with the Kentucky Der-
by winner in his barn and
twice with spoilers, who have
history on their side. Only 32
horses have won the first two
legs of the Triple Crown in
the 130-plus times both races
have been run, yet Baffert
had three of those, only to
lose each time in the Belmont
Stakes.
That wont be a problem
this year, since rival California
trainer Doug ONeills bay
colt, Ill Have Another, ran
down Bafferts Bodemeister in
the final few strides at Chur-
chill Downs two weeks ago.
When you come in with
the Derby winner, youre on
such a high that if things
dont go your way, you still
feel like, No big deal, Baff-
ert recalled. On the other
hand, if you come in here
still thinking you should have
won (the Derby), at least you
know youre going to get a
better trip. Theres fewer
horses and a lot less racing
luck involved.
Pimlico handicapper Frank
Carulli apparently felt the
same way, making Bodemeis-
ter the morning-line 8-5 favor-
ite over Ill Have Another, the
second choice at 5-2.
That a lot of respect in
my mind, said ONeill, whos
enjoyed his turn in the sports
spotlight. If you would have
said a few years ago, Hey,
would you feel respected if
youre 5-2 in the Preakness? I
would have said, Sign me
up.
ONeills willingness to mix
it up was apparent when he
made the drive from Louis-
ville right after the Derby.
Baffert said that after the
blistering pace Bodemeister
set in that race, he expected
to find little left of his horse
besides hair and lactic acid.
No wonder. Bodemeisters
opening half-mile of 45.39
seconds was the fifth-fastest
in Derby history, and none of
the four horses with faster
splits finished better than
13th. Only two went on to
run in the Preakness, with
Top Avenger finishing last in
1981 and Groovy finishing
sixth of seven horses in 1986.
Even so, Baffert didnt seem
overly concerned.
The horse is deceiving. He
will fool you. I think Mike
(Smith, his jockey) didnt
realize he was going 45. If
they didnt have a clock
there, Baffert added, I
would have thought he was
going 47.
Most handicappers have
cast the Preakness as a two-
horse race. Because there
wont be a crowded field nor
any speed horses to hem
Bodemeister in, ONeill was
inclined to agree. Though Ill
Have Another didnt make his
move until the horses turned
for home in the 1
1
4-mile Der-
by, his trainer isnt inclined to
let Bodemeister get loose on
the lead at the 1
1
16-mile Preak-
ness.
If somebody gets an easy
lead, I want it to be us,
ONeill said. If were sitting
behind, I want it to be a
pretty heated pace. Those are
the two scenarios Id like to
see.
Baffert claims not to have
thought the race through that
far.
I just cant map out a
strategy. If he came from off
the pace, Id map out a strate-
gy, you know, Mike, you
need to do this, this and
this. But his strategy is just
to break well and keep him
in a comfortable mode.
He knows what to do,
Baffert said, referring to his
jockey or his horse or maybe
both.
A moment later, Bode, the
youngest of Bafferts kids and
Bodemeisters namesake, came
running out of the barn,
puncturing the relative silence
with laughs. Baffert watched
the scene and smiled ruefully.
Its been quiet all week.
Every time I brought the
loser of the Derby here and
won, its been really quiet all
week. ... He just got here,
Baffert said, referring to the
boy, and he doesnt like the
pressure of being asked about
Bodemeister too much. When
the horse got beat, he took it
a little bit like its his horse.
I didnt want him to be
mad at me, that I didnt do a
good job training his horse or
anything. Hes funny about
that, Baffert said, lowering
his voice.
After a week of not saying
too much, Baffert wasnt
about to tempt fate now.

BALTIMORE Hall of Fame
jockey Kent Desormeaux wont
ride inSaturdays Preakness after
failing a Breathalyzer test in New
York.
Desormeaux, a two-time
Preakness winner, was removed
as the rider of 15-1longshot Tiger
Walk by owner Kevin Planks Sa-
gamore Farmand trainer Ignacio
Correas, and replaced by Ramon
Dominguez.
The 42-year-old Desormeaux
failed the test at Belmont Park,
and was taken off all three of his
scheduled mounts. He has not
been suspended, but the New
York State Racing and Wagering
Board is conducting an investiga-
tion.
According to a rule in New
York that went into effect April
27, every jockey named to ride is
required to undergo a test for al-
cohol consumption.
This was a team decision and
sometimes things happen for a
reason, Sagamore Farm general
manager Tom Mullikin wrote on
the farms Twitter account.
Were trying to run a profession-
al operation &cant have any dis-
tractions this weekend. We spoke
w/ Kent and wished him well.
Dominguez is a two-time
Eclipse Award winner as the na-
tions leading jockey, and is look-
ing for his first Preakness win.
Hes 0 for 9 but has finished sec-
ondtwotimes, withFirst Dude in
2010 and Scrappy T in 2005.
Ramon Dominguez is a great
rider and we plan to have a lot of
fun tomorrow, Mullikin added.
Desormeaux had one other
mount Saturday, ina maidenrace
followingthePreakness. Heis eli-
gible to ride, but its not immedi-
ately clear whether the jockey
will come to Baltimore.
Jockeys at Pimlico are not re-
quiredtotakeaBreathalyzer test,
but the track stewards may order
one if they have reasonable
cause.

BALTIMORE As trainer of
the winner and the runner-up in
the Black-Eyed Susan Stakes,
Todd Pletcher enjoyed a double-
dose of glee Friday.
In Lingerie charged to victory
in the $300,000 race, holding off
Disposablepleasure to win by 1
1
4
lengths.
That was a bigeffort torun1-2
like that. Im pleasantly happy,
Pletcher said. I think (In Linge-
rie) made a big stepforwardto be
one of the leaders in her division
today.
When In Lingerie returned to
the winners circle, she was
bleeding from a cut on her lower
right front leg. The leg was ban-
daged by a veterinarian, and the
filly was walked back to her barn.
Pletcher later said In Lingerie
nicked a blood vessel in her Pas-
tern when she stumbled out of
the gate, adding, Shes fine.
The Grade 2 race is for 3-year-
old fillies.
It was the third career win in
four tries for In Lingerie, who
stumbled early but rallied with a
deft ride by John Valazquez.
Johnny had no choice but to
put her out pretty wide on the
backside, Pletcher said. I
thought in the top of the stretch
she was inpretty goodshape, and
she made a strong run in the
stretch.
Valazquez said: I just wanted
to get good position into the first
turn, and we did. After that, it
was pretty easy for us.

Comcast nixes gigabyte cap
With Internet usage spiking, Com-
cast Corp. will eliminate its monthly
250-gigabyte cap for Xfinity Internet
subscribers but charge additional $10
fees for users who exceed 300 giga-
bytes.
The 300-gigabyte limit could be used
to videoconference on Skype for 225
hours, or watch more than 100 hours of
Netflix movies.
The changes, Comcast said, were not
likely to impact many subscribers be-
cause the median monthly consump-
tion for an Xfinity Internet customer is
eight to 10 gigabytes - well below the
300-gigabyte threshold. Users who
exceed 300 gigabytes could be charged
$10 for each additional 50 gigabytes.
Active rig numbers are up
The number of rigs actively explor-
ing for oil and natural gas in the U.S. is
up 12 this week to 1,986.
Houston-based oilfield services com-
pany Baker Hughes Inc. reported Fri-
day that 1,382 rigs were exploring for
oil and 600 were looking for gas. Four
were listed as miscellaneous. A year
ago this week, Baker Hughes reported
1,830 rigs.
Of the major oil- and gas-producing
states, New Mexico gained three rigs;
California and West Virginia each
gained two; and Alaska, Colorado and
North Dakota were up one apiece.
Pennsylvania declined by four rigs
and Arkansas by one.
Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas and
Wyoming were unchanged.
Exploratory well abandoned
An exploratory oil well off the coast
of Havana has failed and will be capped
and abandoned, Spanish company
Repsol said Friday, a disappointment
for Cuba but far from a death-blow to
the islands petroleum dreams.
Repsol SA is evaluating the data it
collected since the Scarabeo-9 drill rig
arrived in January and will determine
whether to sink further wells, spokes-
man Kristian Rix said.
Its not uncommon to strike out with
offshore wells as four of every five
come up dry, he said, and its too soon
to say whether other parts of Repsols
exploration block are viable.
Nor does the failed well mean that
the rest of Cubas offshore exploratory
area, which is estimated to hold as
much as 5 billion to 9 billion barrels, is
barren.
Rix declined to say how much Rep-
sol has spent to carry out the explora-
tion with the Scarabeo-9.

BEIJING Chinas government on
Friday rejected a U.S. antidumping rul-
ing against its makers of solar power
equipment and Chinese manufacturers
warned possible higher tariffs might
hurt efforts to promote clean energy.
The conflict has worsened U.S.-Chi-
nese trade tensions. The two govern-
ments have pledged to cooperate in de-
veloping renewable energy but accuse
each other of violating free-trade pledg-
es bysubsidizingtheir ownmanufactur-
ers.
TheU.S. rulingisunfair, andtheChi-
nesesideexpresses its extremedissatis-
faction, said a Commerce Ministry
spokesman, Shen Danyang, in a state-
ment.
Shen warned the ruling might harm
cleanenergycooperationbut gavenoin-
dication how Beijing might respond.
SomeAmericancompanies that oppose
the trade probe have warned China
might retaliate against U.S. suppliers.
Thursdays preliminary ruling by the
Commerce Department said Chinese
producers soldsolar cells andpanels be-
low fair price and hurt American pro-
ducers. If thatisupheld, tariffsaveraging
31percent couldbeimposedonChinese
solar-panel imports.
Three major Chinese manufacturers
Yingli Green Energy Holdings Ltd.,
Suntech Power Holdings Co. and Trina
Solar Ltd. rejected accusations they
were selling goods at improperly low
prices.
Foreign competitors complain Chi-
nese manufacturers get improper gov-
ernment support intheformof low-cost
access to land, bank loans and other re-
sources. Beijing acknowledges giving
research grants and tax breaks but says
those are in line with its free-trade com-
mitments and practices by other gov-
ernments.
We will challenge with data all of
those assumptions, said Trinas chief
commercial officer, Mark Kingsley.

China refuses U.S. antidumping regulation

WASHINGTON The Federal Avia-
tion Administration will revisit a deci-
sion to exempt cargo airlines from new
rules to prevent pilot fatigue, saying it
made errors in cost calculations used
to justify the exemption.
In a motion filed late Thursday, Jus-
tice Department attorneys representing
the agency asked the U.S. Court of Ap-
peals for the District of Columbia to put
apilots unionlawsuit onholdsothat the
exemption for cargo airlines could be re-
examined.
The FAA issued an overhaul of airline
pilot-scheduling rules in December, but
the new rules applied only to passenger
airlines. FAA officials said at the time
that imposing new rules on cargo air-
lines would have been too costly to the
industry $214 million over a decade.
The Independent Pilots Association,
the UPS pilots union, sued, saying it
could find no justification for the cost es-
timatethat was thebasis for grantingthe
exemption.
In its motion, the department said,
These errors are of sufficient amount
that the FAA believes that it is prudent
to review the portion of its cost-benefit
analysis related to all-cargo operations
and allowinterested parties an opportu-
nity to comment on that analysis.
FAAwill issue a newevaluation of the
costs as expeditiously as possible that
will fully disclose the extent and nature
of the errors in its initial cost-benefit
analysis, the motion said.
Its likelythenewcost estimatewill ac-
tually be greater, not less, than $214 mil-
lion because some costs were left out of
the original estimate, an FAA official
told The Associated Press. The official,
who wasnt authorized to comment pub-
licly, spoke on condition of anonymity.
A statement released Friday by the
agency said the errors were inadvertent,
and an outside group will be asked to re-
view the cargo analysis before it is reis-
sued for public comment.
Lee Collins, a lobbyist for the Coali-
tion for Airline Pilot Associations, a
trade association that represents the
UPS union, said in an interview that the
association asked the FAA and the
White House Office of Management and
Budget for the data andmethodologyfor
the cost estimate but has been unable to
obtain the information. The union re-
quested the same information in its law-
suit.
Cargo airlines, including United Par-
cel Service, had lobbied strongly for dif-
ferent rules frompassenger airlines. The
new scheduling rules, which go into ef-
fect in 2014, reduce the number of hours
pilots can fly overnight. That would
have had a greater impact on cargo air-
lines, whichdomuchof their flyingover-
night.

NEW YORK While Facebooks
initial public offering Friday had all of
Wall Street abuzz, its 900 million us-
ers had other things on their minds.
They were busy sharing with the
world their thoughts about the presi-
dential election, Haitian Flag Day and
the weekend.
Thats not to say there wasnt plenty
of discussion of Facebooks $104 bil-
lion deal. There was. But many Face-
book users simply took note of it and
went on gushing with friends about
other aspects of their lives and
maybe some photos they might one
day regret.
Onthedayof themost highly-antici-
pated offering in a decade, Facebook
IPO conversations accounted for 0.25
percent of all online discussion during
the first part of Friday, according to
NM Incite, a social media research
company. Thats an increase of 5,000
percent relative to buzz one month
ago.
Past IPOs for tech sweethearts last
year didnt spark nearly as much on-
line commentary. The chatter for
Facebooks offering was four times
greater than for LinkedIns IPOand10
times greater than Groupons IPO.
The Facebook ramblings ranged
greatly. Some were debating if they
should get in on the buying frenzy.
Others weretryingtoguess thestocks
closing price. Several were lamenting
that they hadnt thought to invent the
social media site themselves. A few
even addressed the Menlo Park, Calif.
company as if it were a person, con-
gratulating it just as they would a
friend on the birth of their son.
Hey Facebook! Have a good first
day on the stock market, one user
wrote from his mobile device. Within
two hours, eight other Facebook users
had liked the post.
Nancy Perez, a self-described en-
gage-aholic who makes her living off
social media, also congratulated Face-
book via her Facebook status, of
course: Youhave earnedyour place in
history as one of the most powerful
companies on the planet!
Perez says she shares everything
with her friends: industry news, Face-
book tips, personal stories and much
more. Perez however isnt buying
Facebook stock yet.
Im never first to a party, she said
in the email, adding a smiley face
emoticon.

There is so much
happening out-
doors this week-
end. There is just
no way we are
going to predict
any rain.
Thankfully, we
have a timely
weather pattern
in place to ease
our concerns,
allowing us to
guarantee sun-
shine and
warmer temper-
atures through
Sunday. Some
cloudiness may
show up along
the way, but the
next chance for
showers will hold
off until Monday.
With the sun now
as high as it is
on July 25, a
sunburn can
occur in just 30
minutes. So lath-
er up and head
out to the Fine
Arts Fiesta on
Public Square.
There, a splendid
time is guaran-
teed for all.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Showers and thunderstorms will be likely from the Upper Midwest to the cen-
tral Plains along a frontal boundary. A few strong to severe storms will be possible. Showers, a few
thunderstorms and even some higher elevation snow will fall behind this system over the Rockies.
Low pressure off the coast will produce rain over eastern North Carolina.

The aggrieved, having finished
those brownies, have several ways
to deal with the bad neighbor.
Someareeffective; somearenot.
Among the latter is the solution
many have come to rely upon: Call
the police. No matter that the
neighbor isnt doing anything dan-
gerousorillegal. Nomatterthatthe

Calling the cops almost has be-
come a default solution, one thats
not especiallyproductive.
No one likes having the police
calledonthem, saidWill Reimers,
a neighborhood contact officer
with the Boise (Idaho) Police De-
partment. Oftentimes that makes
things worse, when suddenly po-
lice show up and start talking to
you. People resent that. So its not
thebest first step.
What is the best first step? Try

It seems today that talking to

Getting to know your neighbors can save you a lot of headache
and help defuse conflict.
By WILLIAMHAGEMAN
Chicago Tribune
See NEIGHBOR, Page 3C
In my apartment building, I can
tell you what the roommates
across the hall fight about andthat
theguyupstairshasasqueakymat-
tress. What I cannot tell you is any
of their names andthat, experts
say, doesnt do anyone any good.
Neighborly relations have de-
clined in the United States since
the 1950s, for reasons sociologists
dont quite know, and lack of local
ties is bad for crime and a commu-
nitys ability to organize for their
interests, to say nothing of leaving
you stranded when you need one
more egg.
Some 28 percent of us know
none of our neighbors names, re-
ports a2010Pewsurvey; its partic-
ularly pervasive among younger
and lower-income people.
Thebiggest barrier is just aper-
ception that we should not be in-
volved,saidKeithHampton, asso-
ciateprofessor of communications
at Rutgers University. We fear
having people intrude in our lives,
but we also have to recognize ...
(the) risk in not knowing the peo-
ple around you.
Knowing your neighbors can
help defuse conflicts before they
turn ugly.
If someone leaves their dogout
too late barking, then thats Joe
its not some random guy you
hate, said Bob Borzotta, founder
of neighborsfromhell.com, a chat
room for people embroiled in
neighbor disputes.
Though technology is partly re-
sponsible for making neighbors
less relevant (it enables people get
social support fromafar), it also is
helping revive neighbor ties. Sev-
eral social networking sites are
dedicated to connecting neigh-
bors; Hamptons research shows
that peoplewhousethosetechnol-
ogiesaremorelikelytotalktotheir
neighbors in person and on the
phone than those who dont.

Ive talked
about this
before, but the
questionis
popping up
frequently
because people
want to change
the look of their bathrooms with-
out spending a lot of money.
Q: I have a questionabout
painting ceramic tile ina bath-
room. It is peach(circa1955),
andI wouldlike to repaint it or
replace it. Any suggestions?
A: The on-the-cheap design
shows that proliferatedduring
the late1990s Trading
Spaces was the one that made
me keepPepto-Bismol at hand
made big business out of chang-
ing tile color by painting.
I useda two-part epoxy paint
onsome extra tiles to try out the
technique. WhenI was done, the
tiles lookedas if they hadbeen
painted.
Someone once toldme that
youshouldnever paint surfaces
that were not designedto be
painted. I believe it.
That said, youshouldnever
paint tile that is subject to high
levels of moisture, especially in
the shower.
Althoughyouwill see later on
that one of my sources does not
agree withme, I believe one
shouldnever paint floor tile
because there is a great likelihood
of scuffing off the covering.
If the tile surface is ingood
shape 1955 is a long time ago
youcanput newover the old.
Youdlikely have to do a lot of
cutting of edge tile, but it will do
just fine.
If paintingis what youwant to
do, youmight checkwithacompa-
nythat reglazes porcelainbathtubs
andtiles togiveyouanestimate,
becausetheyemployprocesses,
andtechnicians, whohavethe
experiencetodoso. Theyalso
offer warranties, especiallyif they
aresurethejobwill last.
WhenI want a definitive an-
swer onpainting, I proceedto
Dows Paint Quality Institute in
Spring House for a consultation.
First, prepare the surface: Treat
mildewwitha 3:1water/house-
holdbleachmixture, leaving it on
for 20 minutes andadding more
as it dries; wear eye andskin
protection. Rinse thoroughly.
Remove all dirt by scrubbing
withdetergent andwarmwater.
Rinse thoroughly.
Scrape out andwidenany
cracks, brushout dust, andseal
with100 percent acrylic or sil-
iconizedacrylic caulk smooth
it flushwhile its still wet.
Make a secondapplicationin
several hours if needed.
Check grouting andrepair or
regrout as needed.
To prepare the tile surface:
Apply a high-adhesionlatex
stain-blocking primer that is
recommendedfor interior use.
Allowthe primer to dry over-
night before painting.
For floors, use analcohol-based
or oil-basedstainblocking primer
that is recommendedfor interior
use.

Whats new
Northeast Ohios Moen Inc. has
devised a simple way to keep a
hand towel at your fingertips, not
on the bathroom floor or the
kitchen counter.
Moens Retractable Towel Ring
is attached to a cord that lets you
pull the towel toward you to dry
your hands while its still attached
to the ring, and then pulls the
towel and ring back into place
automatically when youre done.
The retractable cord extends 11
inches fromthe wall-mounted
base.
The Retractable Towel Ring is
available at Lowes stores and
from wholesale distributors.
Suggested retail price is $24.
Q&A
Q: I have a lily of the Amazon
(Eucharis grandiflora) houseplant
that I purchased from Thomas
Jeffersons Monticello in the
1990s. It looks perfectly healthy,
but has never bloomed. Help!
T.J., Arlington, Va.
A: Amazon lily is actually native
to Colombia and Peru, not the
Amazon region, environmental
horticulturist Edward F. Gilman
notes in a fact sheet he wrote for
the University of Florida Exten-
sion. In its natural setting, it goes
dormant in winter, which enables
it to flower in spring.
Gilman recommends keeping
the lilys soil fairly dry during the
winter. Some who grow the plant
in their homes withhold water
until it starts to wilt. Keeping it in a
cool spot in winter may help, too.
Amazon lily also likes crowded
conditions, Gilman notes, so
dont be too quick to repot it.

of having a hostile reaction or (be-
ingthought)akook,saidTedRue-
ter, founder and director of Noise
Free America (noisefree.org), an
organization that seeks to bring
noise pollution to the attention of
the public and elected officials.
Youvegot totakethat first step.
NOISEMAKERS: Noise is a uni-
versal neighborhood complaint:
loud stereos or home-theater sys-
tems, barking dogs, screaming
kids, motorcycles, lawn mowers
being used extremely early in the
dayor toolateat night.
ACensus Bureaureport in1999
indicated noise was the No. 1com-
plaintpeoplehadabouttheirneigh-
borhood and the No. 1reason peo-
ple want to move, Rueter said.
That doesnt seem to have
changed. The online site rentersin-
surance.net puts noiseat thetopof
thelist of neighbor complaints.
Resolutionof anyproblem, from
noise to intrusive children, should
begin with a calm, polite discus-
sion. Just dont do it when the of-
fendingactivityishappening. That
will only make a neighbor defen-
sive and raise tensions. Walk over,
bepleasant andbroachtheissue.
Frequently, the offending neigh-
bor will havenoideathat hes mak-
ingyoucrazy.
They say, Why didnt they
come tome first (insteadof calling
the police)? I hear that with noise
disputes, Reimers said.
Explaining the problem in a re-
spectful, even-temperedwaycan
leadtofurther discussion. Andif
yourelucky, a solution.
I had a neighbor when I lived
inWisconsinwhohadaleafblow-
er, Rueter said. He used it all
the time. So I talked to him and
said, This is very bothersome to
me. Hesaid, Hey, Iminmy60s,
andI want mylawntolooknice.
NEIGHBORS
Continued from Page 1C
See NEIGHBORS, Page 5C
One suchsite is Nextdoor.com,
which has more than1,900 neigh-
borhoods, said co-founder Nirav
Tolia. Its purpose is not social but
to solve practical problems, like
finding a lost dog or organizing a
block party. The majority of posts
are either recommendation re-
quests (someone seeking a good
plumber) or classifieds (trying to
sell a couch). Theres also an ur-
gent alerts feature that sends an
emergencynotevia text message;
a neighborhood in Texas used it
recently to alert people to torna-
does.
Jon Elliott, 28, joined the Next-
door group for his neighborhood
in Lancaster, Pa., in hopes of cre-
ating a sense of community be-
cause, hesaid, itshardtogoupto
someone walking their dog and
just start a conversation.
The site proved helpful when a
posting about a car break-in
spurred a slewof neighbors to re-
spond that their cars also had
beenbrokeninto, Elliott, said. But
neighbors also now wave to each
other inthe street andcall one an-
other by their names, he added.
Thats not to say neighbors
should become best friends. Its
the weak ties that make a happy
neighborhood, Hampton said, so
just make it a point to say hello or
offertocollect someonesnewspa-
pers if theyre going out of town.
Respecting boundaries is vital,
Borzotta added. Introducing
yourself if yourenewtotheneigh-
borhood, or welcoming a neigh-
bor who has just moved in, is a
good way to establish contact, he
said. (Cookies? Unnecessary.)
If youve already lived some-
where awhile, consider attending
a community event, Borzotta
said.

thingabout thesqueakymattress.

OUTSIDE PEACEMAKERS:
Not all neighbors are that reasona-
ble; not all solutionsarethat easy. If
there is a landlord, contact him or
her; theyusuallyknowhowtodeal
with bad tenants. Sometimes,
though, a third party needs to be
called in another neighbor, per-
haps. But even then, those drive-
way conversations arent always
productive.
ASALASTRESORT: Of course,
diplomacy doesnt always work.
There may be no reasoning with
the neighbor. He may be stubborn.
He may just be a jerk. Then you
grabthephone.
If municipal ordinances are be-
ing broken, call the city. The same
with possible health violations,
such as the open burning of trash.
